SENATE STUNNED
BY ADDRESS OF
SENATOR SCHALL
tBy Dispatch a. p. Wirc)

WASHINGTON, June 17.-Tne sem
of a vitriolic verbal bombshell fired
by Thomas d. Schall, republican; who
had just been declared the duly elect
ed JUROR senator from Minnesota,
at former Senator Magnus Johnson,
farmer-labor, who had contested his
election.
Midway in the reading by a clerk
of a speech by the blind senator
following the senate's acceptance of
the elections committees unanimous
report recommending the seating of
Senator Schall and the dismissal of
the contest, Senator Ashurst, demo-
crat, Arizona, appealed to him to
withdraw his remarks on the ground
that "as the years roll on, he will
regret this speech"
Senator Schall, however, insisting
upon the right to be heard for four
minutes at least declined to accede
and insisted upon the clerk continu-
ing until all but the conclusion had
been read. Then he said he would be
satisfied if the rest, (which will
not take more than a minute" were
included in the record.
The concluding paragraph declared
that so far as Magnus is concerned,
he never knew what it was all
about-he was only the marionette
who kicked and waved his hands and
opened his mouth according to the
tension of the string"
However, he must have known
Senator SchalVs speech said,s that
the petition that he was induced to
sign was false. else he would have
gone on the stand in substantiation
of the pretended charges. 1 do NOT
believe that man whose morality
is so blunted that he will allow his
name to be used for criminal libel
is Il fit candidate for any office"
Senator Schalrs speech began by
referring to the contest as the first
move in a well thought out and ex-
tensively organized. highly financed
plan, of malicious character assassin
alton, calculated to accomplish my
defeat next election
The committee, it continued, was
unduly considerable and extremely fair
to every one but me in letting in
nefarious, manufactured, hearsay
Islander and unsworn declarations of
an unprincipled attorney Suffering
these outrages and nnfounded ac-
cusations, I did not then realize, as
do now, that the best way to get
rid of skunks is to allow them to
come out in the open where you can
get a shot at them. The framesr
of this persecution expected no posi-
tive results except to hold me and
smear me with their slime"
Donald Hughes, Johnson's attorney,
Senator Schall's speech declared, was
well known as a conscienceIess shy
ster, and was placed in charge OF
the case because of his cunning, rat
like tendencies and his extensive as
ISOLATION with crooks and perjurers."
Later Hughes was described as 4
crooked, unprincipled, Matchmaking
pettifogger."

greatest loss in lard.
The weather was the chief factor
with the trade. Holders of wheat
became discouraged when it develop

stone of the District of Columbia, laid
in 1871. has been transferred to the
custody of the Mount Vernon Chapter,
Daughters of the American Revolu-

the Commerce Department announced
today. pending possible legislation for
permanent transfer of the now unused

Although the reservation is not now
a part of the District of Columbia,
it was II part of the Federal reserva-

An automatic light on skeleton

place of the old lighthouse. The
change was made necessary by CON

PAID PUBLICITY
EXPERTS RAPED
"WorSt Problem" for News
paper Advertising Managers,
Publishers Are Told.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. April 20.-The paid
publicity expert was pronounced the
worst problem of the advertising
managers of newspapers in the an
nuAl report of the Bureau of Adver-
ti<ing of the American Newspaper
Publishers Association. presented TO
the directors Yesterday.
The report will he put before the
convention of the association to-
morrow.
A committee of the bureau report
ed that in some cases large sums
originally intended for newspaper
advertising had been diverted, when
publicity men had assured the ad-
vertisers that equal space could be
obtained at n fraction of the cost
through free publicity.
Remedy i'm Hands of Publishers.
THE remedy is in the hands of
the publishers of newspapers" the
report said, 'whO can stop this
food of destructive material by in
structing their editors better TO in
form themselves about the character
of free publicity? The editor rather
than the press agent is responsible
for this condition..
The report placed the membership
of the association at Jbb neWSpa pOrS.
a gain of over last year.
National advertising in 1925 WELD
ed an income of $3.50 0.000.0 600 to news
papers, the bureau reported. this be-
ing an increase of slightly less than
10 per cent over 1924.
Steady Growth Shown.
The bureau reports that assOcia-
ton members averaged an increase
in business of l3 per cent. The
steady growth in national advertis
ing the report said. land the fur
ther opportunities for it's develop
ment have impressed upon the bureau
the necessity for increasing its service
work among advertisers as well as
carrying forward aggressively its pro-
gram of solicitation"
The bureau also reported that TO-
900 copies of it's book. THE Progress
of Newspaper Advertising" had been
issued. and permission had been
asked to translate it into German.
