Heflin Insists Newspapers
Suppress Bank Criticism
Senator Names Journal of Com
merce' Editor in Attack
on Press

WASHINGTON, July Ex-senator
Hefiin, Democrat, of Alabama, resum-
ing to-day in the Senate his attack on
the Federal Reserve Board and its gov
ernor, w. P. G. Harding, turned his
fire on publicity of the board and the
scant attention which he said was
given his speeches criticizing the board
by what he described as the "spbsi-
diced press
The Alabama Senator mentioned
specifically H. Parker Willis, whom he
identified as an editor of "The New
York journal of Commerce" and who
he declared had been on the pay roll
of the Federal Reserve Board first as
u secretary and later as director of
research. He contended that this was
a way that the board got publicity and
suppressed criticism of it and the
Federal Reserve banks.
Denouncing what ne termed the
Subsidized press" which he said had
representatives. in the capital, Senator
Hefln said
when mentioned the dcfation
policy of the Reserve Board to-day the
correspondents OF the great metropoli-
tan dailies left he gallery, flushed like
a covey of birds. | have asked why
this has happened in the past and
learned that it was so that they could
say that they could not hear me talk
about dehation."

oner. Don't you dare to lay finger
on mel This is an outrage! / shall
see my attorney about it,"
Finally, convinced that searching
was a formality which all prisoners
must undergo, Mrs. Olneto insisted
that she be taken to the matron's room,
and departed in dignity, powdering her
face as she went.
In few moments she was back. On
one side of her face the black brstles
of stubbly beard showed plainly.
Patano was busting powder from his
hand and coat sleeve.
Swears in Bass and Tenor
"That's why she was all the time
powderin' her face" said he, tri-
umphantly, to Lieutenant Driscoll
"She's got beard like the stubble in
an oat field, and she can swear in bass
and tonor. She's man, but what she's
got up like this for / don't know"
The combineo efforts of the two de-
tectives and Lieutenant Driscoli failed
TO reveal the reason for the masquer-
AIDE. The prisoner maintained an OBJ
stinate silence. He was booked for
masquerading in woman's attire. The
Jersey City police reported that no one
was at home at the address given there
as "Mrs. Jiamio Olneto's."

Seek Law to Curb
Store Landlords ON
Washington Heights
Alleged Rent Couging Threat
ems to Force Many Retail
ers Out of Business; Plan
State. Wide Organization

The Washington Heights Retail
Merchants Tenant Association began
campaign yesterday against what
they declare is rrofteering among
landlords leasing stores. The store
keepers will ask for the passage of
laws intended to protect them from de-
nnands. Of INSCRIPTIONS landlords.
In the opinion of the associations
president, Morris Plat, an emergency
exiats whereby thousands of retail
storekeepers Of greater New York face
eviction. Tenancies and leases of re-
tail stores are due to expire in large
numbers within the next few months,
and because Of the demand Of the land
lords many merchants declare they will
be sorced out of business. AS the
preaant emergency laws apply only to
apartment rents the retail storekeepers
feel they have no protection.
"The landlords have got US by the
neck" rs said, because they know
there is no rent law to protect US.
They cau increase our rents as much
as they like and we can't touch them.
But we are going to change all that"
Membership in the association is not
limited to any particular locality, but
is statewide, the object of the asso-
citation being to force the Legislature
to place upon the statute books law
which will protect the retail store
keeper in his business property to the
same extent and as fully as the pro-
tection now afforded to the householder
under the existing emergency rent laws
Feeling in the Washington Heights dis
trict is strongly in favor of the move
az practically every one of the 500
members of the Retail Merchants Ten
ant Association has had difficulties
with the landlords of their stores.

Rain to-day or tomorrow may en'
able July to equal or exceed the rain
fall mark set by June, which was the
rainiest month on record since Sep
TENDER, 1889, according to the weather
man.
The official June rainfall record was
1886, although campers, motorists and
vacationists in general may insist that
it was considerably more than that. SO
far this month the total rainfall is
654, but real, heavy rain, similar to
several that the city experienced dur
ing the last sixty days, will send the
July total up to or above the mark set
by the preceding month. it was said.

She sat in the woman's cabin of the
President Roosevelt yesterday when
the Staten Island ferryboat left South
Ferry for St. George at 4:3o p M. ap-
plying a powder puff delieateiy to her
face while she peeped into mirror
in her vanity case.
The absence of sleeves to her geor-
gette waist revealed symmetrical white
arms. Her tailored blue skirt dis
creetly refrained from covering pair
of dainty ankles which graced sheer
tan hose. A foppy white hat of gen.
erous size hid most of her face, but
what could be seen was far from dis
pleasing.
She was q we'll dressed woman, obvi-
ously conscious of it, and carried her
self with such an air of dignity that
| when a passenger approached Detec-
tives Collins and Patano at the st.
George ferry house and whispered his
suspicion that she was man, the de-
tectives, after one glance at the
woman, regarded their masculine in
formant far more obviously than they
did her.
Detectives Are Embarrassed
So womanly was the figure before
| them and so self-assured was she in
every movement that Detectives Col
| Inns and Patano were visibly embar-
raised. They felt that she was not q
woman to be accosted without reason,
and they cast about in vain for an
! excuse.
Before they found one she had
/ boarded South Beach car, settled her-
self in seat and resumed powdering
her face, peering into the mirror in her
vanity case. The detectives boarded
the same car Once or twice they
thought she glanced at them surrepti-
tiously under the edge of her foppy
white hat
At Old Town Road, Fort Wadsworth,
she got off So did the detectives. She
started gracefully and purposefully up
Old Town Road. No other pedestrians
were in sight. The detectives real
lied that they could not fail to attract
her attention if they continued to trail
| her.

"You do it," whispered Collins.
ono, you do it," returned Patano.
Collins gritted his teeth and did it.
pardon me-" said he, removing his
hat with a flourish, "but haven't I
met you somewhere before?''
Two dark eyes, as cold and threaten
ing as the barrels of a shotgun, glanced
at Collins from the depths of the
foppy white hat.
"Sir," said their owner in the chilli
est of tones, "you are insulting. am
married woman and you are annoy
ing me-"
Profile Settles Her Case
She drew a powder puff from her
vanity case and began busting her
checks delicately, peering into a tiny
mirror in the case. The wind at the
same moment tilted the foppy white
hat and Patano got glimpse of her
profile, which aroused his suspicion
and stimulated him to action. 1t
seemed to him that black bristles
showed through the layers of powder
and he resolved in some fashion to get
this bearded lady to the police station.
"Are you Mrs. Phillips ?" he asked
suddenly, "Mrs. Elizabeth Phillips
You see, we are detectives and we are
looking for Mrs. Elizabeth Phillips.
You answer to her description exactly
and I'm afraid you will have to come to
the police station and prove your iden-
tity."
1t was brilliant stroke, but it did
. not daunt the powder puff lady.

"All right" replied the wholesaler

This is done sometimes, 1t is said,
but the usual custom Is that when
q retail jeweler brings in a customer,
a profit Is added to the wholesale price
and this goes 20 the retailer for his
services. The customer in this case
purchased several hundred dollars
worth of goods.
In an hour the retailer, who had in
sisted on absolutely wholesale" prices
for his customer, returned TO the
wholesale house.
"What profit did you get for me"
he asked the wholesaler.
"None," was the reply. "You insisted
that the prices be strictly wholesale"
"But didn't kick you under the
tablet" asked the retailer. you should
have gotten wise to that"
