vote to send to the White House a
man who is not an American"
On May Z, 1920, a fortnight before
the primaries, another Republican
elector, j. Fred Yates, asked Mccain
ant for an expression of his position,
which the judge stated as follows:
Il am ready to support the candi
date who carries the Republican pri-
marieS, unless il is Hiram Johnson.
| will not vote for Hiram Johnson. A
lawyer who stands for the recall of
judicial decisions cannot have my
vote, nor will l vote for President for
feat of two Republican nominees for
the presidency. Johnson was one of
the irreconcilab bles in 1912 who pre-.
vented all efforts to compromise the
differences within the party. I am
convinced that he betrayed Hughes in
1916, and know that he tried to abol-
ish the Republican party in Cali
fornia, and that the existence of the
party now in that State is due to the
referendum which was put upon the
statute which he caused the Legisla-
ture TO enact. | am. Furthermore, un-
willing to support him because he has
the support of every pro-German and
every I. W. w. in the country.
Il am sorry IL you differ with me
in my views as to what should be
done under the circumsta noes, but the
above are my ideas. and | shall gov
ern myself accordingly if l am elected

NEW DRY CHIEF
To HUMAN|zE
SERVICE
Lincoln Andrews Made M.
P.'s Popular in France
by His Methods
By LLOYD LEHRBAs.

A new spirit is going to permeate
the ranks Of Uncle Sans sponge
squads" when Lincoln G. Andrews,
newly appointed Assistant Secretary
of the Treasury. in charge of prohi-
bition enforcement, hits his stride.
Andrews, formerly brigadier gen.
eral and deputy provost marshal
general with the American troops in
France, was known by every dough-
boy in the war as "the king of the
M. P.'s-meaning he was hard
boiled chieftain of the military pc.
lice. When he took the job the
NJ. P.'s, were heartily detested, but
when Andrews finished his reorgani
Zation they were accepted as bud
dies. Now Andrews-according to
his own announcement-is going
to "humaniZe" the dry-raiders.
Genreal Andrews has behind him
an exceptional military record. He
was born in Owatana, Minnesota
from whence sprang Main Street"
and graduated from West Point
in 1898. Two years later he went
through the Chicago riots and then
served through the Spanish-Ameri-
can war in Cuba. After the war he
was at West Point until he was
sent to the Philippines where he
participated in the famous Kobbs
Viscayan expedition and became gov
ernor Of Leyte.
Returning to the United States
Andrews, then a captain of cavalry,
became Superintendent of General
Grant National park in California
until he was recalled to the Philip
pines to fight the fanatical Moros
at Lake Lanao. He then cam back
to West Point as an instructor be-
fore taking two years leave which
he spent in the rubber industry in
Mexico.
Back in America again General
Andrews became inspector-instruc-
tor of the New York and Vermont
National Guard cavalry, and then
instructed the business men who
attended the first training camps
in 1915. After a hurried trip to
organize the Philippines National
Guard on a war basis he went to
France and organized training
schools and then whipped the
military police into shape. In addt-
ton to silver stars for gallantry in
Cuba and the Philippines General
Andrews wears the French Legion
Of Honor, the Italian Order Of the
Crown, and the Distinguished
Service Cross.
That's the man the bootleggers
will have to cope with from now
on!

Hines Says Maneuvers Will
Train Army and Navy .
to Act as One

Major General John L. Hines,
chief Of staff of the army, will
leave Washington tomorrow for San
Francisco en- route to Hawaii where
with Admiral Coontz, he will act
as Joint chief umpire Of the joint
army and navy war games In the
Pacific.
General Hines will sail from San
Francisco on Admiral Coontz's flag
ship, the Seattle, April IL. En- route
to the Pacific coast. General Hines
will inspect Fort Russell, at Chey'
enne, Wyo, and Fort Douglas, Salt
Lake CITY. Utah.
General Hines today emphasized
the necessity of cooperation be-
tween the army and the navy in or
der that any maneuvers should be
successful, as experience in past
wars has proven that lack Of CO.
operation has been one Of the
things most responsible for lost
battles and wars.
1.-THE chief purpose Of the
Hawaiian exercises" General Hines
said, lis to train both the army
and navy forces in joint operation
in order that they may become
practiced in cooperating with each
other. If this purpose is realized
only partially the maneuvers will
have been highly successful. Anv
serious war that this nation may
be unfortunate enough to engage
in will be joint army and navy
operation on a broad scale. and will
call forth numerous joint opera
tons, of a more defined scope"

BAL T|MORE 7 0
SEEK OLYMPIC
GAMES
Frank A. Hancock Will Meet
Officials in New York
on April Is

Baltimore is making a bid for
the next Olympic games, to be
held in 1928.
Amsterdam, Holland, the city Sc
lected for the 1928 games, liz under
stood to have withdrawn or Isl
planning to withdraw, and Balti--
more Is going to send Frank A.
Hancock, director of its stadium,
to the meeting OF the American
Olympic Committee in New York,
April IS, to urge the selection of
Baltimore for the games.
Los Angeles is also planning TO
send a representative to the New
York conference to bid for the Sc
lection Of the California city as the
scene of the next OIympics. No
other American city has yet sign.-
fled its intention OF seeking the
games.
Washington is expected by Balti-
more officials to support the Monu-
mental City's bid for the games.
The proximity Of Baltimore TO the
National Capital will aid the Mary.
land city to get the games, 1t is
believed, since visitors to the games
po SVEN OH VpPOAtuAASy ~
visit here.
Hancock Is Authorized
At a meeting of the Baltin1ors
Park Board yesterday, Mr.. Har
cock was given full authority IL
present Baltfmore's bid for this
games and to detail the advantages
Of holding the event there. The
American committee will receive
bids from the American cities andl'
refer them to the INTERNATIONAL
committee for. final action.
Baltimoreans, urging their city
for the scene of the next Olympics,
declare that the seating capacity
increased to 10000 for the games.
They point out that the five acres
of playing field in the stadium and
the twenty-five acres Of parking
space outside Of the stands a. &C.
commodations can hardly be
equalled anywhere else.
The Olympic committee would
save thousands of dollars by hold.
ing the event in Baltimore, Mr..
Hancock declares, because all IA
cilities are owned by the city and
no rental would be charged.
Five Big Pools
Among the facilities are five open
swimming pools, large enough for
all swimming events, shooting
range and many trapshooting sites.
Transportation facilities win also
be emphasized by Mr.. Hancock in
his bid for the games. He VIII
point out the Clifton Park station
of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road, which is located a short dis
lance from the stadium.
If the Olympic games should be
held in Baltimore, it would mean
a lot to Washingtonians. Probably
most Of the visitors to the games,
both participants and spectators,
would include this city in their,
itinerary, and Washingtonians
would be able to see the gangs
without an exorbitant travelling
expense.

MUSIC LOVERS WORSHIP
 AMID BEAUTIES OF NATURE

SAN BERNARDINO, Cal, July ?. (P)-A capacious and probably unique, natural amphitheater, dis tinctive in it's setting 1000 feet above sea level in the wooded heart of the San Bernardino mountains, on what is known as the Rim of the World" was opened recently with musical program novel in itself.
 This huge outdoor theater can ac- commodate an audience of 50,00O persons or more The seating ar engagements include everything from the natural pine needles, collected to form a seat, to cushioned chairs.
 Instead of one stage there are many. They are composed of plat forms of table-shaped rocks artisti- cally placed by the hand of nature about the large amphitheater. On one, hundreds of feet above the au dience, a violinist standing in the shafts of colored lights blended with the moon-beams thru the branches of great trees on the mountainside above him, rendered music from the masters of long ago. From another across a .ravine on a precipitOuS mountain side, string quartet play ed softly while choruses sang from half hidden caverns
 Vari-colored lights playing about the amphitheater created a fantastic effect.

Taximeters Traced Back
 to Early Days of Athens

OXFORD, England, July (P)- Modern research has disclosed that the chariots which piled for hire in the Acropolis in the days of Pericles were fitted with ingenious and high ly industrious taximeters.
 In the grey dawn of Attic history distances were measured by profes- sional pacers called bematists, who followed the kings on campaigns and processions, but with the introduction of horses and chariots, the bematists lot in that hot and dusty land became an active and unenviable one. Thus the taximeter of those days was, it is said, invented out of sympathy for this industrious order of men. The profitable little instrument survived wars and invasions and clicked on through all the darkest ages. They are recorded to have been in use in Spain in the days of Columbus and John Evelyn, the seventeenth century diarist, speaks of them as waywisers, very pretty and useful"
 Of these "waywisers," or "peram- bulators," a number have now been collected and are on display in the newly reopened Oxford musemum of scientif instruments.

this chSrge and was fined $40. 1t was

Powell is alleged to have killed a
