Honesty Wins Pass
To Opening Game
OF World Series

Page Diogenes, There is an
honest man in Washington, and his
honesty has gained for him a free
grandstand seat at the opening
game of the world series.
This man, who happens to be
E. H. Holkamp, head OF the divi-
sion of communications Of the Bu-
reau of Internal Revenue, received
yesterday a letter addressed to
one "V. W. Cannon, Treasury De-
partments' Bearing the name of
the Washington Base Ball Club,
he knew the letter contained a
world series ticket. He could
easily have failed to exert himself
to locate the addressee, whose
name he could not locate on the
various personnel lists, but he was
an extremely honest man.
For one full day and part of an
evening he tried to locate " w.
Cannon. finally learning that a
man of that name had been en-
ployed by the Department of JUS
tice. He aScertained there that he
had been transferred to the Inter-
nal Revenue Bureau and with this
definite clue, he finally, In person,
delivered the letter and ticket to
it's owner, who is a deputy colIec-
tor of internal revenue.
Have you ticket to the
classic?" asked Cannon, after he
had gotten over his surprise at
receiving the supposedly lost ad-
mission card. Not yet, but l hope

dominated by the Coolidge machine,
snubbed and insulted me-" he contin-
ued "The Coolidge newspapers over
the State, with few exceptions, have
bolted me and continue to denounce
me and my platform approved by the
voters.
1.-The Coolidge committees have an
nounced in the press that they would
not use me in the campaign.
Hits Railroad Valuation.
1.-THE State Republican platform de-
clares for a farm relief bill upon
the principles of the McNary- -Haugen
bill. L approve and stand upon this
platform and / ask that the President
do the same, but he will not do it.
His opposition, widely advertised in
Eastern newspapers defeated the Nc
Nary Haugen bill in Congress.
.In a recent speech the President
quoted and approved a valuation of
s35. 000,000,000 as the value of the
railroads and certain other utilities.
| cannot tell the exact value of these
utilities from his statement, but they
would probably not exceed $5.000,00o,-
900. This would leave $4,000, 900, 900
as the excess value of the railroads
as approved by the Presidents speech.
THE Wall street financiers have al
ways made the same claim, and with
the prestige of this statement they
will probably be able to get the final
value increased under the ESch Cum
Minis law after the election, despite
the fact that the statement was used
to denounce Government ownership
and despite the further fact that all
the railroads on the security mark ct
were only worth $4,000, 100000. The
President is, therefore, against the
reduction of railroad rates. and if his
idea of valuation is adopted it means
another large increase in rates.
Asked for Extra Session.
Il wired the President asking for
an extra session of Congress imme-
diately and Secretary SleRp wrote
me that he would call the matter to
the attention of the President and
hoped ] would call when in the city.
/ The Coolidge Cedar Rapids gang i'm
mediately brought out an independent
candidate for Senator against me.
The cause of this situation grows
out of the following matters In
Congress:
Il was against Newberryism. The
President was for it.
Il was against the ship subsidy.
The President supported 1t.
Il was in favor Of repeating the
Esch -Cummins railroad law and the
President opposed its repeal.
II was in favor of Investigating
corruption in the departments. The
President opposed the investigation
and criticized the Senate for it's
action.
Fought Mellon Bill.
THE President favored the Mellon
tax bill, which reduced taxes on the
big incomes by a big percentage and
on the little incomes by little per-
centage / helped amend the bill to
reverse these reductions in favor or
the common people.
II favored the old soldiers bonus
bill. The President vetoed it, and l
voted to pass it over the veto. 1t sue

Il favored the postal employees bill.
1t was vetoed and l will vote to pass
II over the veto.

not the only persons culpable in the
eyes of the police, however. Under
the specific orders of Maj. Sullivan
the police were prepared to arrest
any customer who sold base ball

brokers or any one else, for they were
liable not only to a charge of selling
d ticket in excess of the established
price, but to an additional charge by
Federal authorities of violating the
provision that ticket sellers must
split their profits with the Govern
ment-
1t was this "ambiguous" point that
revenue officials claimed the action
today of the Police Department was
not supported by law. IF ticket
spectators cannot sell a ticket in
excess of the established price how
are they going to split their profit

official when informed of the police

They feel, it was pointed out, that
they are justified in putting the mat

necessary steps, therefore, were
taken in short order.
AS the afternoon wore on 1t began
