He testified that he paid 81 or IS

Allies and Germany Yet Wait
Word From Brazil Regarding
Germany's s Legal Entrance

Austen Chamberlain, British foreign
secretary, Immediately will move ad-
journment until the next assembly
of the question of Germanys cleo
ton.
Brazil had not abandoned her at
titude of opposition to Germany
so far as known today, and SO
convinced was the council Of the
league that no answer would come in
the next three days that it voted
with great reluctance to postpone
all action on Germany's application
for league membership and for a
permanent seat in the council as
exacted by the Locarno accords.
The belief is held among the dele
gates that unless miracle hap
pens, Germany will remain outside
the league at least until next Sept
ember which is the month in which
the league assembly next convenes.
New difficulties have darkened the
horizon; the little entente has press
ed the allies for a definite written
engagement that they will support
Rumania for a temperament seat
next September as compensation for
the projected resignation of CZecho-
Slovakia. Moreover, Spain, the Sc
riousness of whose demand for
permanent seat has been rather ig-
nored by the allied leaders, came
forward at tonight's tense secre+
session of the council and renewed
her insistence for recognition.

GOOD|NG BILL
To Be VOTED
ON MARCH "A
INV Dispatch A. P. Wire)

WASHINGTON, March
16.-The Gooding long and
short haul railroad rate bill
will come to a final deci-
sion in the senate at 3 p.
m. March "a, under a unani-
nous consent agreement
reached today.
The agreement was obtained after
lengthy debate in which enactment
was urged by Senator Pittman, dem
ocrat, Nevada, and the measure was
attacked by Senators Phipps, repub
lican, Colorado, and Bruce, demo-
crat, Maryland. 1t would prohibit
railroads charging more for short
intermediate hauls than for longer
hauls to permit them to meet water
transportation competition.
While Senator Bruce contended that
''more is to be gained for the public
welfare from elastic rather than rigid
provisions limiting the interstate
cOmmeTc0 COIuHll5S4OlS OSldlOI IL
man said that body had assumed
jurisdiction and powers beyond those
authorized by congress.
Senator Pittman appealed for pro-
lection for the Panama Canal traffic
which would be menaced, he said, by
granting railroads differentials TO
permit them to compete with water
transportation He added that the
railroads planned 0 put canal freight
traffic out of business. "just as they
have driven all the river boats from
the Ohio, the Mississippi, the Missouri
and our other inland waterways which
we have developed at the expendi-
ture of hundreds of millions of dol
lars"
Senator Phipps based his opposi-
tion on the ground that the Good
ing bill would afford no substantial
relief to the intermountain region,
"but may actually prove harmful to
western interests

DAIRY HAND saw
EMPLOYER DEAD,
But DID CHORES
(By Dispatch A. P. wire)

PHOENIX, March 16-Without a
tangible clue, authorities today We're
endeavoring to solve the mysterious
death of Sam T. Piether, sheep
rancher, whose body was found yes
terday lying on a canal bank with
three bullet shots through the chest
and one through the head. Peters
ranch is a short distance south of
Tolleson.
The body was found by George
Helm, a farm hand on the place.
Helms account of the tragedy, told
to Howard Speakman, assistant coun-
ty attorney, relates that he found
the body as he was doing the morn
ing chores. II saw he was dead" !"
Speakman quotes Helm as saying, 80
1 went on to the field and brought
up the cows and done my milking.
about o'clock I got through with
my milking and went into the house
and said to Mrs. Piether:- Sans out
there dead under a tree. Hadn't we
better get an undertaken?
Then he continued, he went to town
and got the sheriff.

SCHOOL BOY IS
KILLED WHILE
ON PLAYGROUND

Clyde Watson, age II years, son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Clyde Watson, 1925
Eleventh street, a pupil in the sew
enth grade at the Douglas grammar
school, was practically instantly kill
ed about 1880 Tuesday morning when
a giant stride in the playground at
that institution snapped off from it's
cement base and crashed down upon
him, striking the right side of the
skull.
The boy was deau before a physi-
clan reached the scene and before
cries of his playmates at the time
could summon help. Young Watson
was not swinging on the giant stride
at the time, according to those pupils
who witnessed the accident, but was
standing to one side watching others
enjoying the sport when the heavy
iron pole which supports the revolv-
ing platform at the top of the stride,
broke off from the cement base and
felled him.
Superintendent of Schools r. E.
Souers stated that the stride had
been inspected about a week ago
and that no flaws were found in it
at that time. 1t is believed that the
weight of the pupils swinging upon
it Tuesday morning during. the re-
cess period, however, was concen-
trated suddenly at one point and
caused the iron pole to snap clean
from ifc cauOant base
Judge John E. Newbury was called
to the scene immediately after the
accident and with Constable o. A.
Ash made a complete investigation.
He decided that it was not the oc-
casion for the scaling of a coroner's
inquest
Young Watson was enjoying the
recess period with many other pupils
when the pole crashed down upon
him. None of the children swinging
on the stride We're injured but Clyde
came within the direct range of the
falling apparatus
Although the dead youth had been
in school here only about two months
he had already proved himself a
popular student and an exceptionally
bright one. He is survived by his
father and mother, and a younger
brother. The Watson family arrived
in Douglas about two months ago,
the father being employed at the e.
and A. smelter.

FAMILY OF FIVE
BURNS TO DEATH
in FARM HOUSE
(By Dispatch A. P. Wire)

CARLISLE, Iowa, March 16.-An en-
tire family of five persons was wiped
out in a fire that destroyed a farm
home near here today. The mother,
Mrs Lena Trichel, died following her
brave but futile attempt to save
her children and husband from the
flames which started with the ex-
plosion of a can of kerosene with
which she had been feeding the
kitchen fire. The dead are:
Donald Triche1, 80, farmer; Mrs.
Trichel, 80, his wife; Laura Trichel,
8; Marjorie Trichel, 5, and Ida Bell
Trichel, 8.
After breaking window and push
ing the children through it their
clothing abIaze, Mrs. Trichel attempt
ed to enter the room in which her
husband had been sleeping. The
flames had evidently wakened him
almost in time for him to make his
escape, because his body had fallen
against the door. Mrs. Trichel, weak
ened by inhaling smoke and flame,
was unable to, push the door open,
and finally climbed through the
broken window, went to the yard
and wrapped herself and the girls
in blankets and lay down to die
When a neighbor arrived he tried
to break into the flaming house to
get Trichel but the inside by that
time was in full blaze. The mother
and daughters died shortly after he
ing taken to a hospital Neighbors
and sheriff's officers searched the
ruins for two hours before the un-
body of the farmer was
found.
Douglas daily dispatch., 1926-03-17

The measure is the flrSt proposed
major change in the prohibition law
to be reported out of committee since
passage of the volstead Act. 1t will
receive the legislative right OF way
and be taken up in the house in
the near future. s
While it is designed 70 strengthen
it's consideration will at least open
the flood gates of general prohihi-
tion debate and may serve as tie
vehicle by which wet members can
get before the house, in the form
Of amendments, their many and va
ried proposals for liberalization of
the general prohibition law. Hereto
fore these proposals have been
smothered in committee.
The bill was introduced by Chair
man Green of the ways and means
committee. In addition to creating
a prohibition bureau, it would set
up in the treasury department
bureau of customs, and the :wo
units would be administered by COM
missioners appointe dby the secre-
tary of the treasury at salaries
Of $4,000 a year. The personnel of
both bureaus, excepting the higher
officials, would be subject 20 the
civil service regulations.
During hearings by the committee,
Assistant Secretary Andrews, in
charge of prohibition enforcement,
endorsed the bill as providing much
needed rea1ignment of enforcement
machinery.
Prohibition was the subject of one
speech in the house today but in
the senate the recent almost daily
debate on that subject was omitted.
Representative Griffin, democrat,
New York speaking in the house.
declared the 18th amendment, with
one, full swoop, had taken away
half a billion dollars in property
and for the first time had written
police regulations into the consti
tuition.
Douglas daily dispatch., 1926-03-17
