Republicans Lead
Fight For Ford

Washington, June 12.-Democrats
III the house, who are advocating the
acceptance of the Henry Ford offer
for Muscle Shoals, concluded tonight
to leave to pro-Ford Republicans the
task of securing early action on this
important Southern subject.
They argued that if success is to
be scored it must result from Repub-
lican leadership, as Democratic ag-
gression would inspire belief on the
part of some that the issue was polit-
ical.
1t is their understanding that con-
siderable Republican element, despite
the antipathy of Republicans to
Southern developments at govern
ment expense, and their antipathy tO
Ford, the individual, are amendable tC

ert themselves to defeat their enemie:
at the polls.
The pro-Ford Republicans, it i:
understood, have already undertaken
to secure from the rules committed
rule giving preference to the Muscle
Shoals proposition. Unless such rul'
is obtained, it is regarded as doubtful
that Muscle Shoals partisans coul,
make headway against the Republi
can machine The Democrats, VIII
are actively behind the pro-Ford Re
publicans, are representatives of al
| Southern states. The solid Southern
vote will be cast for Ford Their

Youngest Woman to
Graduate at Bryn Mawr

Bryn Mawr, Penn, June 12.-When
Miss Gertrude Prokosch is graduated
from Bryn Mawr College this month
she will establish the record for the
youngest girl to receive diploma
from that educational institution for
women. She will not be 10 until
August and is a daughter of DR.. We'd
ward Prokosch, professor of German
at Bryn Mawr. Furthermore, she will
be fourth in her class. Her major
subjects are French and German.
Disillusionment awaits those who
think Miss Prokosch is prodigy or
a grind" Aside from her scholastic
achievement, which is in the way Of
completing the regular four year
course at Bryn Mawr in two, she has
made the highest strength test record
in the history of college, although she
is of very modest phys;c ii proportions.
Her record is SIS, breaking the old
record of sos. The regula~ college
strength system includes bar chinning
and other gymnastic stunts.
Miss Prokosch's athletic prowess
does not stop in the gymnasium She
is swimmer of considerable ability,
and also has done some notable track
work. But her real love in the way of
exercising is interpretive dancing.
She expects to take this art up more
seriously with post graduate work in
the University of Berlin. Another of
her hobbies is music.
Miss Prokosch was born in Chicago.
She received much of her early educa-
tion in Austin, Texas, where her faith
er was member of the faculty of the
University Of Texas. Upon coming
to this city, she was compelled to take
entrance examinations which she
passed with no difficulty at all, and
then did considerable doubling up in
her work.

County in Virginia
Growing Excited

Richmond, Va, June 12.-Excite-
ment is running high and much bitter
talk is being indulged in Louisa coun-
ty as the result of the actions of one
of two socalled factions in applying a
coat of tar and feathers to man,
said to be a member of the opposing
faction, and the alleged retaliatory
tactics of the latter in an apparent
attempt on the life and the destruc-
ton of the property of minister,
who, some seem to have gained the
impression, had in some way instigat-
ed the tarring and feathtring.
Thursday night party { masked
men visited the home of Herbert
Buckley at Pendleton, near Mineral
and took him to the woods, where
they applied coat of tar and feath-
ers. Prior to this he was given 6
thrashing.
Another party, believed TO be
friends of Buckley, on the succeeding
night paid visit to the home of the
Rev. R. Glenn and fired severa
charges from shotguns into the house
several narrowly missing the min
ister. In the party, according to Mr.
Glenn, were two white men and two
negroes.
Mr.. Glenn is said to have positive
identified the white men as Buckley
and c. E. Via. Buckley is in jai
with the two negroes, William Hughe:
and Jim West. Via is out on $4,000
bail with a preliminary hearing Sc
for next Tuesday. Commonwealth
Attorney w. c. Bibb of Louisa coun
ty, who is conducting an investiga
tion, is of the opinion that more thar
the four under arrest were implicated
in the attack on Mr.. Glenn and efforts
are being made to round up Others
believed to have been involved.

door ard directed several negro farm
hands and servants who had assem-.
bl"d to Lcgin the removal of the fur

blowing from the west the rescue
workers had time to save much of the
household furnishings.

ing countryside and many visitors
from various points in the state, in
Guiding Greenville, Spartanburg, An
dersOn. Williamson, Honea Path and
l.aurenS. The services were led by
