45 MEN ENT0MBED IN BURNING MINI
Was It Duel or Mur- der, When Cline Killed Bergen = Ri ch eIieu Beheaded Duellists, or Hanged Them Head Down ward Gun TOting PrOvOkes Murder.
PrOvOkes Murder.

John Bergen, moving picture dare devil. shot to death by George Cline, is the latest contri- button made by the fiction in dustry to the literature of crime. Cline says that Bergen attacked his wife, that he invited Bergen to fight a. duel. that Bergen did mt play fair, and that he, Cline, killed in self defense. Public prosecutor doesn't believe the duelling story. This is neither. here nor there. Suppose that the story were true. Suppose Bergen were actually killed in a duel. Would this aggravate, or ameI- iorate the offense.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1922-08-28

The average man would per haps class the duel as an extenu- ation. The stateman, that is to say. our expert in government and public policy, might regard it as an aggravation of the wrong. The statesman would have his yesterdays right He would know the history of duelling Murder has not been entirely checked by society, but dueIlfng, which increased murders, is pret- ty well eliminated. It survives in an attenuated form, here and there.
The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1922-08-28

Bergen appears to have thought of that duel as a means of excu1- pating homicide. This is the ing was seldom fair. There were bulIies who made business of it, ard duel was frequently, like the affair in New Jersey, no more than murder
 We may learn that gun tot ing and gun keeping does pro yoke murder. The American Bar Association is right, when 1t says get Nd of the pistol.

Protest to Presidents.

against the navy departments pro-
posed abandonment of the Charles
ton. S. c.. navy yard vas made
to President Harding today by
Senator Smith and Representative
Logan of South Carolina and
Mayor John T. Grace of Charles
ton. As the three left the White
House after haif-hour audience
with the President they repo1ted
that their interview had been very
satisfactory and declared they
were hopeful that the navy yard
would be kept in operation.
1t was pointed out to the presi-
dent that the closing down OF the
Charleston yard would leave the
$500 miles OF coast line between
Cape Hatteras and the Mexican
border without single yard
equipped for navy craft and lager
merchant ships.

CHARLESTON
IS MAKING
STIFF FIGHT
Ask President Hard
ing to Intervene to
Prevent Closing Of
Navy Yard

Washington, July 13.-Presiden
Harding was called upon otday by
Senator E. D. Smith, accompanied
by Representative W. T. Logan.
and asked to intervene to prevent
the closing of the Charleston navy
yard as contemplated by the order
recently issued by Acting Secretary
Theodore Roosevelt.
The matter was most earnestly
presente to the presidents atten-
ton and he listened with interest.
Mr. Harding did not commit him
self as to what he might do, but
promised to take the subject under
very serious consideration. He
seemed to be appreciative of the
points advanced against the policy
Of leaving an entire section of the
country without a navy yard.
When Senator Smith got back to
the Capitol from the White House
he was disappointed to receive the
following radiogram reply to the
cable of Tuesday, in which he
asked Secretary Of the Navy DENLY
now in Japan. to suspend the
Roosevelt order until the matter
could be investigated after Mr..
Denby's return:
Very sorry: do not feel justified
in acting as YOU suggest. Edwin
Denny"
This is disappointment, but it
will not check the fight to have
the order held UP or modified. On
the contrary this fight will be
wased all the harder with all 1egi-
innate means at command. There
is no question that Acting Secre-
tary Roosevelt who is away from
Washington today. has heard many
more protests against his order
than he expected and from sources
which surprised him and the in
tervention Of the president has
been sought by csl-a;l influential
Republicans TO prevent the C ',.-
of what they regard as
a Serious blunder. The matter may
be discussed in the cabinet after
Col. RooseEelts return.
