Mandell also says that Tex Richard
will lose his crown as the champion
promoter of all times, but the wish is
evidently father to the thought. Rick
ard has too many lines out to be sunk
easily and when 1t comes to q show
down can muster too much cash to be
overthrown. While his upset would
be the best thing that ever happened
to the game, Richard will probably
linger long time despite the desires
of his opponents.

KINDRED PREPARES
GUARDIANSHIP BILL
New York Representative,
Noted AIienist, Seeks to
Cure Veterans Ills.

Representative Kindred of New
York, noted alienist. today intro
duced a bill to amend the World War
veterans act of June, 1924, in the
matter of guardianships and admins
tration for the estates of insane and
deceased veterans of the World War
to correct the scandal which has been
emphasized in Washington by attacks
in the House upon Commissioner
Frederick A. Fenning, who has acted
as guardian in more than 100 such
cases.
Representative Kindred said in in
Producing this bin that the recent
charges of abuses by guardians of in
sane and incompetent war veterans
had been made possible by the in
adequate provisions of the existing
law providing for guardians of in
sane and incompetent veterans.
These abuses have occurred in con-
nection with the appointment under
existing law of improper and ufi-
scrupulous guardians, not only in the
District of Columbia, but in the DIFF.
ferent States.
II and other members of the House
of Representatives personally know
of one or more such case in which
there have not only been abuses by
guardians but failure of the courts
having power to appoint them to re-
move improper and unscrupulous

Columbia when hearings were re-
opened before the judiciary subcom-
mittee of the House District COM

There was the usual large at
tendance of more than 500 persons
in the caucus room of the House
Office Building when the hearing was
reOpened today with Representative
Clarence j. Mcleod, Republican. of
Michigan, presiding.
Mr.. Darr emphasized that the Dis
trict committee is legislating for the
District of Columbia and for no other
part of the United States, and that
the legislation to be passed should be
III accordance with the wishes of the
people in the National Capital, and
not the wishes of people from other
States. He said that the people of
Washington do not want this bill
passed" and said that he speaks for
80 per cent of the residents and
citizens Of the District.
Sees Union of Church and State.
Mr.. Darr protested that the pur-
pose behind his bill is to make it a
first step toward union of church
and State. He emphasized that dur
ing the war period the moving picture
houses and theaters threw their doors
open to the four-minute men in their
drives to build up the morale of the
people. He warned the committee
that today it is even more necessary
to build up the morale of the people
than during war days and declared it
is a question of morality as we'll as
morale.
Pass this bill, closing up your
moving picture houses, your base ball
games, and other places of innocent
amusement before the public gaze,
and you will drive our young people
to petting parties in automobiles all
along the roadsides, and to steamer
and Virginia." said Mr.. Darr. He
argued that innocent amusement is
necessary today, especially for the
protection of young girls.
Representative Houston, Republican,
of Delaware, commented that we are
living in a very complicated age, and
that he believes recreation is neces-
sary. He discussed the prospects of
writing into the restrictive bill pro-
vision for necessary recreation. -
Representative Gilbert, Democrat, of
Kentucky, agreed that in a city like
Washington, outdoor recreation on
Sunday might very properly be de-
cided by the courts to be necessary.
Would Hurt Churches.
Mr.. Darr insisted that the Lank
ford bill has for its purpose to in
directly compel the people to go to
church. He declared that today at
| least IS per cent of the people of
Washington worship in churches on
Sunday, but that if this law is put
into effect fewer will attend because
it has been made coercive.,

S8O,ODO,OOO READY
FOR CUBAN BANKS
Ship Brings $4,000 900 to
Havana to Meet Crisis of
Depositors' Run.
By the Associated Press.

HAVANA, April 1.-THE Cuban
cruiser Cuba arrived here today from
Key West, Fla, with $43, 900 900 on
board with which to meet any re-
newal of the run of small depositors
on the Royal Bank of Canada and
the National City Bank of New York,
which started Saturday
This money, in addition to, other
large sums dispatched here from New
Orleans and Jacksonville, is expected
to be more than sufficient to meet
all demands for payments at banks
here and throughout the island. In
all. $80,000,000 has arrived or is on
the way to Havana to meet the crisis.
Yesterday a special train left Ha-
branches of the Royal Bank of Canada
in the outlying districts. Cuban banks
have shown no unusual activity.
Admirers of President Machado are
praising him for his efforts to sur
mount the difficulty. They say he
never forgets a friend They tell the
story that during the 1921 panic
President Machado took his troubles
to the Royal Bank of Canada. The
bank advanced him sufficient money
to tide him over the crisis. Saturday
when the bank required friends ana
funds, the President and some of his
colleagues deposited about $1,000,OOO in
the institution and then spent half
an hour reassuring the excited people
that their money was in no danger.
AS during all such crises, pickpock-
cts were in the crowds about the
banks. Numerous losses to deft hands
were, reported. One old woman, feeble
and infirm, drew her life savings,
amounting to $1,000, from the Royal
Bank of Canada. A short distance
from the bank she shrieked and fell
to the pavement. A pickpocket had
stolen her money and she was pennl-
less.

Working Girls Don Artists Smocks
