The Civil Liberties Union happens TO be an organization
that does rush TO the every time and everywhere
there governmental assaults the constitutional rights
of free speech and free assembly II does rush 70 the
of citizens thrown into prison by lawess officials
for exercising their constitutional rights And IN so
doing this organization of defenders of liberty has shown
up gross outrages in the name Of the law and vicious
lawlessness by officials chosen to administer the law
In 1928 over two million dollars expended by the
department Of justice for detection and prosecution Of
crimes" recent investigator, making survey Of the
department for the New York World, says this sum will
be increased by about $4,000 this year. and that in
the present order Of things is kept less secret
The attorney general is given wide latitude IN spending
this money. II can be made source Of much evil.
Considering revelations recently made concerning some
OF the activities Of department of justice seuths such as

gress might well look into what is done with the vast
expended by Burns bureau before turning over TO

TWO MISSIONARIES
WOUNDED IN CHINA
Reformed Presbyterians

SHENCHOwFU, Human, June Ia
The Revs. Karl Beck and George
Snyder. missionaries Of the Reformed
Presbyterian Church, are suffering
from bullet wounds, one Chinese gem
eral is dead and another q fugitive
with a price on his head, as the re-
suit Of feud growing out, of am
munition purchases, which led to hos
titities on the night of June 2. The
missionaries were trying to make
peace between the hostile factions
when they were wounded by stray
bullets, singularly enough each in the
left elbow.
For some time trouble had been
brewing between Gems. Tsang Yin
Lung and his subordinate, Tien Lii
Chin. over purchases of ammunition
by Tien without the others sanction.
NeVerth eless, the two officers appeared
to be still on visiting terms, so that
when Gen. Tien invited Gen. Tsang
TO a feast at his headquarters the
latter came with no suspicion of
treachery.
Gen. Tsang arrived in a chair. i'm
mediately followed by the civil mag
istrate of the city. AS Tsang was
dismounting from his chair at the
door, ITEMS men opened fire and
Tsang was killed on the spot A
number of his bodyguard and two
chair coolies also were killed. The

The murdered ofncers' men wers

the soldiers OF Tien.s command were
and firinE between fhA two forces
began and continued allxht next day.
The overtures of the missionaries
were unavailing. but when REIN
forcements arrived Tien slipped away
into the hills. A reward OF $4,000
has been offered for his capture by
order Of the commanding general At
