BROOKHART ASKS
COURT ORDER FOR
SAVING BALLOTS

DIES MONIES, Iowa, Nov. 3O.-(By
the Associated Press) - Senator
Smith w. Brookhart plans to defend
his claim to his seat in the United
States senate on. the same grounds
upon which Daniel F. Steck, his
Democratic opponent in the general
election, plans to base his contest of
the election.
This was disclosed when the
senator, through court action IN
nearly a score of Iowa counties, set
out to preserve for the probable
senate recount of the ballots, all
records Of the election, some of
which might be destroyed under the
law of December 4, when county
auditors are permitted to dismantle
voting machines and retain only the
total recorded for each candidate.
Senator Brookhart. in filing pc
titions for injunctions against nine
teen county auditors, asked that
special masters in chancery be ap-
pointed to open voting machines and
preserve ballots which may not have
been counted, as we'll as those which
were recorded.
In numerous instances, he alleged
in the petition filed here, Judges of
n1@ ,IJ1, l,o,, 1,,tiN nd
failed to make true and accurate
returns" on the senatorial race.
Attorneys for the senator declare
they have evidence that in numerous
counties straight Republican ballots
were not counted. AS a result, they
declare, the Brookhart lead over his
Democratic opponent was reduced
'by hundreds of votes" and Senator
Brookhart won by only 755 votes,
while the loss of these votes to other
Republican candidates, who received
overwhelming majorities in all cases,
was not important.
Likewise, Steck's attorneys nave
announced his contest of the Brook
hart election will be based upon
votes which were not counted
through a misunderstanding on the
part of election judges Of the tabu-
lation of election machine ballots,
and upon the throwing out of bal
lots marked with arrows to indicate
a scratch" for the Democrat. Bal
lots in the latter group are invalid
under the state law, but Steck hopes
to be able to have them counted by
the senate committee.
Action on all the petitions, filed
simultaneously today is not expect
ed later than Monday or Tuesday.
Judge Hubert Utterback granted the
Polk county injunction this after
noon. Political supporters of Sen
ator Brookhart said here tonight
there was little doubt that the in
functions sought would be granted
in all cases.
In addition to charging that cleo
ton judges failed to accurately re-
port the returns to- county election
boards, the petition filed here do
clared that the judges "conspired
together to defraud this plaintiff"

Confederate Veterans
Due Over 100000
In Pensions by State

The state of Georgia is indebted to
Confederate pensioners in the sum
Of Approximately $4,000 accord
ing to. state officials who have been
figuring out the exact amount due
the old soldiers under the gradually
increasing scale provided by the
legislature of 1921.
Former Governor Nat e. Harris
who has recently taken office as
state pension commissioner, has con-
suited with various other officials In
an effort to determine the amount
due the veterans, but the exact flg-
ure has not been agreed upon.
Commissioner Harris is anxious 10
get some action by the next session
OF the legislature looking to the pay
ment of the debt to the old soldiers.
Plans that have been suggested are
bond issue, or an amendment 10
the cigar and cigarette stamp act
giving the law more teeth" Inc
stamp act was passed for the bene-
/ fit of the Confederate veterans, BUT
there has been great difficulty IN
enforcing it without an army OF
field agents.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 29.-And
now for the fireworks.
There never has been at any time
a thought that the short session OF
congress, opening Monday would be
a pink-tea affair. But now that
majority of the Republicans have
thrown four of their insurgent col
leagues in the senate out of the
party by the scruff of the neck the
chances for a few high spots are
exceedingly promising.
The action of the Republican con-
ference virtually means that all hope
of general legislation, constructive
or otherwise, at the coming session,
has been thrown to the winds.
Without Senators La Toilette,
Brookhart, Ladd and Frazier, the
Republicans have no working ma
jority. Today they are without"
these four senators by an almost
overwhelming vote of the confer
ence.
Having thrown down the gauntlet
to the La Toilette wing, the regulars
have virtually told them to do their
worst between now and March q,
next. The ousted senators are quite
competent In that respect.
Special Session Seen
Therefore, Washington feels today
more confident than ever before that
President Coolidge will have to call
a special session of congress next
April or May to take up pressing
problems of legislation, including
tax revision. 1t is entirely possible
that the senate may be unable to
pass the usual supply bills by
March 4 because of the "ructions"
within the seeming Republican ma
jority.
The regular Republicans defend
their action by saying they never
had the support of the four senators
anyhow and could not count upon
it in the future. Some Of the more
temperate members of the G. o.
P. were inclined to hold out the
olive branch. They thought the in
back into the fold.
They recalled the fact that The
odore Roosevelt once led an armed
revolt against the Republican party
but afterward was welcomed back
with open arms. They recalled that
Colonel Roosevelt's running mate on
the progressive ticket in 1912 was
none other than Senator Hiram
Johnson, of California, now a re-
spected and respectable member of
the Republican ma ority.
1t also was argued by the mod
crates of the party that La Toilette
and his crew only tried" to wreck
the Republican party. Colonel Roose-
ference. Why the sudden change
therefore to righteous militancy
which sent the four Dacksliders to
the guillotine withC 1T a hearing and
without beenfit Of clergy?
Official Washington thinks 1t
smells a rat.
President Coolidge took absolutely
no part in the chastisement Of those
who worked against him. He refused
to be drawn into the discussion in
any way, shape or manner. He
maintained that the senate always
had had the inalienable right to
Judge of the fitness and classified
ton of it's members. The legislative
is one branch Of the government;
the executive is another. President
Coolidge thinks these constitutional
divisions should be maintained.
Harvey'S Hand Seen
But here's the rub. A certain edi-
tor-friend of the presidents has been
belaboring the regular Republicans
with whip and spur these last few
days. This editor is known as being

ASTERN TEAMS MEET WATERLOO IN THE, WEST

HALF GAME LEAD

Philadelphia Athletes Are
Still Playing in Hard
Luck IL
Ey HENRY L. FARRELL


NEW YORK, May 12.-Intersec
tional games in the major leagues
which will feature the pennant races
for almost a month are bearing out
the contention that the two cham-
pion clubs have their most serious
opposition. in the west. The New
York Giants, lpaying championship
ball, rode wildly over the weaker
eastern clubs and accumulated what
looked like a commanding lead, shut
they slipped badly when they were
given their first real Challenge and
they now have a lead of only a half
game over the dangerous Cincin-
natl Reds.
The Giants hit their first slump
against the poor Philadelphia Phils
when they blew pair of games just
before they hit the road on their
first trip of the season and they
dropped two more against the Cards.
The Cards are by record the weak
est club in the west and the Reds,
the Cubs and the Pirates should
give the champions much more
trouble than they are now having.
The Boston Braves were a sur
prise in their first series against
the Pirates when they won the first
two games. The Pirates are badly
in need of pitchers and they will
miss Babe Adams, whose arm has
failed him and who is practically
through.
The losing streak of the Phladel-
phia Athletes has been ono OF the
unusual features of the American
league race. Connie Mack S team has
dropped / games in row and looks
to be after record.
Terrible weather that has caused
nuemrous postponements is saddling
handicap of the New York Yam
kess that may prove heavy when
Miller Higgins has to get into the
double headers..
