FEW DEMOCRATS
AT HEADQUARTERS
But Others Gather at Various
CIubs-Senator Swanson
in Charge.

Only handful of people were pres
ent at the Democratic national COM
mittee tonight as the first returns
began to come in. This number, how
ever, slightly increased as the hours
wore on. 1t was stated that the rea-
son for this small showing was due
to the fact that the three large Demo-
cratic clubs of the city-the Davis
Bryan Progressive Democratic Club,
the Mcdonald Washington Blackburn
Davis for President Club were hold
club headquarters.
Claude A. Swanson, senior Senator
from Virginia, and chairman of the
speakers bureau, was in charge of
the committee offices. He was as
sisted by Chester J. Fitch, chief clerk
to Glenn Shaver. Most of the Demo-
cratic dignitaries were said to be
at the headquarters in New York city.
A small crowd was gathered together
in the room of the Absentee Voters
Association, which organization is
combination of the various Demo-
cratic clubs. Conrad II. Syme, presi-
dent of the club, was in charge, and
was assisted by c. II. Knott, who op-
Grated d large radio for the benefit
of the spectators. Wires of the Asso-
ciated Press and Western Union as
sisted in carrying the news.
Radios played the principal part
at the meetings of the various Demo-
cratic clubs. Large crowds turned
out at the home of Mrs. Jeannie r.
Moran, 2315 Massac chusetts avenue;
the Shoreham Hotel and the Ebbitt
House, where the three clubs before
mentioned were congregated. These
meetings were presided over by Mrs.
Moran, Mrs. Walter e. Hutton and

dents. y musical program was given

MelI0,, and Blair
Sued to Stop Tax
Figures Publicity

Gorham Hubbard of Boston,
Mass, as a citizen and taxpayer,
today filed suit in the District Su-
preme Court for an injunction to
prevent publication OF his income
tax return. He names as defend
ants Andrew ". Mellon, Secre-
tary of the Treasury, and David
II. Blair, commissioner Of internal
revenue.
Mr.. Hubbard declared that the
provisions OF the income tax law
Of 1924 permitting and authorizing
the publication OF returns are un-
constitutional and void. The Con-
stitution and its amendments fail
to confer, he claims. on the Con-
gress power to SO invade the citi-
Zen's right OF privacy. The provi-
sions are also in violation Of the
fourth amendment assuring per-
sons against unlawful search and
seizure.
Attorneys F. n. Fay of Boston
and Clinton Robb Of Washington
are counsel for the petitioner.

points in the congested section of the

secured with a big paddock. Attached
to the box is a sign reading: "All
citizens of the United States are vot-
ing today except citizens Of the Dis
trict Of Columbia. Ballot boxes
closed"
Standing nearby are officers of the
District of Columbia League OF
Women Voters, which had arranged
for the display of the boxes for the
purpose of emphasizing to those
American citizens enjoying the con-
stitutional right. the fact that resi-
dents here cannot vote. Other promi =
nent Washington women participated
in the sentry duty" which is changed
about every hour.
The location of the boxes include
the sidewalk on Pennsylvania avenue
in front of the White House; the
State, War and Navy Building; Seven

ing; The Star Building; Ninth street
and Pennsylvania avenue; Fourteenth

the national election today, a humili-
