who composed the mob which raided
Matthias Elduayen's home and COM
pelled ElduaVen and members of his
family to leave the place after the
shooting. the deputy district attor-
ney said.
Furthermore. we shall try to learn

AS far as responsibility for the
death OF Mosher was concerned

Woerner shot the constable and was
justified in doing so.

been subpoenaed as witnesses at the
inquest, Doran said. Young Mosher.

row but Doran said 1t was not

Of his family.
Coburn in a statement today, de-
clared the Ku Klux Klan was not
responsible for the raid and as far
as he knew, none Of the raiders were
members OF the kan. He said he
went to 1nglewood within half an
hour of the shooting because Price
had told him that the Klan might be
blamed for the demonstration under
way there.

j. S. COURT DECIDES
DESCRIPTIVE LABEL
MUST Be Definite

WASHINGTON. April 24.-Labels
or brands under which articles are
sold, when open to construction in
the mind of the purchasing public
they they describe the component
ingredients or materials used in the
manufacture of the articles, must
clearly and definitely describe them,
the supreme court held today in an
opinion delivered by Justice Brandeis
in a case brought by the federal trade
commission against the Winsted Hos
iery company Of Connecticut. JUS
tice Reynolds dissented.
The opinion of the court, while
confined to the particular issues pre-
sented. will, it is stated, have ma
terial effect in broadening the juris-
diction Of the federal trade commits
sion in such practices. Chairman
Gaskill of the commission described
the decision as a great victory.
Explaining that the Winsted COM
pany for many years had manufac-
tured underwear for the retail trade
bearing the brands Natural merino," /"
"Grey wool" Natural WOOL" "Eatu-
raj worsted," or australian wool"
Justice Brandeis declared none of
this underwear is all WOOL" but
much OF, it contains only a small
percentage of wool, some as little as
10 per cent"
In this connection, while the Win
sted company labels. particularly the
word 'merino," have long been used
in the trade, the court did not accept
the contention that they are general
ly understood as indicating goods
partly Of cotton.
He declared it ''unsound." assert
ing that the labels in question "are
literally false" and except those
which bear the word 'merino" are
''palpab1y so." All are calculated to
deceive" Justice Brandeis added,
land do in fact deceive a substantial
portion of the purchasing public"
Defining the words used upon the
labels Of the company. Justice Bran
deis said "a substantial part of the
consuming public and also some buy
erS for retailers and sales people,
understand the words as applied to
underwear to mean that the under
wear is all WOOL" By means of the
labels and brands, part Of the pub
lie is misled into selling or into buy
ing as all wool underwear which in
fact is in large part cotton" he add
ed, declaring that the practice tended
to aid and encourage the representa-
tiOns of unscruplouS retailers and
their statesmen who knowingly sell to
their customers as all wool under
wear which is largely composed of
cotton.
when misbranded goods attract
customers by means OF the fraud
which they perpetuate. trade is di-
verted from the producer of truth
fully marked goods" the justice add
ed, and the fact that honest manu-
facturers might protect their trade
by also resorting to deceptive labels
is no defense for such practices"
The court pointed out that the
trademarks which deceive the public
are denied protection and found that
the commission was justified in its
conclusion that the practice consti-
| tuted an unfair method of COMPETE
ton and that it was authorized to
order that the practice be discon-
tinued.

Old Fashioned Tariff
Debate Marks Opening
OF Long Senate Battle
TRepubIIean a. p. ceased wIrel

/, WASHINGTON. April 24.-There
was an old-fashioned tariff debate
today in the senate. 1t marked the
real beginning of the weeks and per-
haps months of battling over the ad-
ministration measure which the
finance committee reported two
weeks ago.
The discussion was opened by SEN
ator Smoot, Republican. Utah, with
a detailed explanation of the elastic
tariff proposals written into the bill
at the suggestion Of President Hard
ing, and it included an attack on
those proposals by Senator Jones.
Democrat, New Mexico and the
opening Of a general assault on the
whole measure by Senator King,
Democrat, Utah.
Characterizing the measure "as
more iniquitous" than the Payne Al
drich and Dingley measures, Senator
King charged that it was a bill "to
increase the price of everything the
people buy and was framed in the
interest of the dye trust, the steel
trust, the chemical trust the wooden
mill trust, some of the cotton manu-
featuring trusts and the multitude
of great organizations that in the
past have preyed upon the people.
and that in the future will continue
their policy of exploitation"
Senator King declared that the ad-
dress of Chairman McCumber of the
senate finance committee, in calling
up the measure last week. was "an
appeal to the predatory interests of
the United States to be merciful to
the poor consumer and said that
when the nation was at war and the
very fate of civilization seemed to
be at stake, some of the same yll-
lures that dictated schedules in this
bill were robbing the American peo-
pie and the American government"
Flags Agricultural Bloc
In the course Of his remarks Sena-
tor King took a fling at the agricuI-
tural tariff bloc, the manufacturers
block, and what he described as other
blocs and groups. He declared that
the death-knell of political parties
was sounded when there was a divi-
sion into farmers groups. work.
mems groups and manufacturers
groups"
Reading from an announcement of
the Southern Tariff association that
it had laid its appeal for higher rates
than contained in the senate bill be-
fore the tariff bloc" Senator King
demanded to know what had become
of the able senators who constituted
the finance committee and who are
supposed to write tariff bills"
Referring to American valuation.
Senator King warned that the senate
would be in session many weeks. if
not many months. before an Ameri-
can valuation plan is written into this
bill.
1T is infamous enough without
that provision" he asserted, 'It
would be intolerable with that pro-
vision"
AS to the elastic tariff provisions.
Senator King said they would oper-
ate to make the tariff commission "a
football of the predatory interests" /"
would make for instability and would
result in the permanent presence in
Washington of a tariff lobby which
would dangle before senator's and
representatives all the specters the
brains of the interests could con-
jure up

PERSONAL FRIENDS
ASK MINISTER To
END REFORM FIGHT

CHEYENNE, Wyo., April pa
committee Of nearly 40 personal
friends of the Rev. George Chalmers
Richmond, unfrocked minister at
Evanston, Wyo., today agreed to wait
upon him and try to induce him to
give UP his attempt to reform Evans
ton, which he has termed the most
wicket city in America.
Latest reports from Evanston in
dicate that the former minister does
not intend to leave. MY father
fought four years in the civil war,
and do not propose to dishonor his
service he says in a formal state
ment received here,
Messages received here today by
the Wyoming State Tribune state
that the report that Rev. Richmond
was in danger of mob violence and
that he had been forced to seek pro-
lection at the home of District Judge
]. r. Arnold did not correctly reflect
the situation there "There was no
suggestion of mob action against
Richmond" one dispatch declares.
But there was held a meeting of
representative business and profess
sional men with the city council at
which it was decided that his yitu-
peration against the town and its
people had resulted in feeling so Bit
ter that it was advisable that he
should leave. The only time he took
refuge at Judge Arnold's home was
when he went there asking for food
and representing that there was a
mob after him"
The former minister formerly
served in pastorates in Syracuse,
Philadelphia, Rochester, New York
and other eastern cities, where it is
understood he also had a spectacular

RUMRUNNERS

GOVERNMENT
SUB CHASERS
Federal Agents Claim Swift
Craft Have Struggled
$3,OOO,OOO Worth Of
Rum Into United States
IRepubIIoan A. P. Leased wIrel

NEW YORK, April 24.-Customs
officials announced today that they
were working to smash a rich boot
logger ring-which they charged had
mohilized fleet of former submarine
chasers to meet creation of Americas
dry navy"
The federal agents are working on
the theory that the swift craft that
once pursued German u boats and
were sold after the war, now are pos
ing as naval vessels and, commanded
by officers in the uniform of the
United States, already have succeed
ed in running in S3,000,000 worth of
rum into the United States from Ber-
Hluda and Havana. The announce
ment of the discovery of the alleged
smuggling scheme was made after
former submarine chaser 101, re-
clristened the Fidus, had been
nabbed in New York harbor by a
police boat and customs launch after
she had passed quarantine and was
darting toward a pier. Customs men
claimed that they had found aboard
her numerous charts with marked
landings along the Atlantic coast and
Hudson river. No liquor was found
aboard her and the crew told a hair
raising tale Of having had their cargo
plundered by pirates off the Long
Island coast yesterday.
The ex-chaser, said to bear British
registry, was tied UP at the Battery
where tonight she was held on a
technical charge that she left Ber-
muda without CLEARANCE papers. Her
captain. who gave his name as John
Kelly" and his crew of seven, were
taken to the customs house for
severe grilling. After the exanlina
ton, which was attended by rep
resentative from the office of the
British consul general, Assistant
United States Attorney Falk said:
Kelly wore the uniform OF q
United States naval officer. We have
not as yet made any charges against
Captain Kelly and the crew. It is
understood that the Fidus carried
2,100 cases of choice Scotch whisSey
from Bermuda and that is what we
want to find out. The vessel failed
to show on her manifest any cargo
and after questioning by customs
agents it was decided to take her into
port and question the crew."
Federal agents who said they be-
lieved the name John Kelly ficti-
tious and that the captains real name
was NJ Stanley Clarke, of BROOKLYN,
intimated that there was a possibility
that there might be brought against
her captain a charge of wearing an
ensign's uniform illegally. Kelly"
who claimed at one time to have
served in the United States navy. de-
MED he was wearing naval uniform.
s.All l had was a cap that resem-
bled an ensign's headpiece," he told
reporters.
Kelly claimed to have been taking
liquor to Montreal for Bermuda
wine merchant who owned the craft,
when pirates on another chaser stole
the cargo and the manifest.
The story of the piratical raid off
Montauk was the greatest thrill that
had been brought into port for many
a day, but customs officials claimed
to have detected points at which the
tale which was related by different
members Of the crew. did not jibe.
Incidentally. one of the crew, Ray
Palmer. was alleged to be carrying
/. w. W. literature.

the possibility of further reductions
from the general level of AZ per cent
