On the wall there was picture of
this woman in her wedding dress be-
side her young husband. How proud
she looked and strong with her white
wedding veil. This was what life
had given her. The house with dark

of Vote Brokerage

The So business men and clergymen
that have lent their names TO the
Better Government Association to be
used on its stationary are demanding
an investigation Of the charges that
between $4,000 and $4,000 was
given the association to deliver 1907
600 votes for Hope Thompson, candi-
date for states attorney.
When the Better Government Asso-
citation introduced a petition before
the United States senate demanding
a congressional probe Of the alliance
between Cook county officials and
Chicago gunner. a number Of the Of
ficials who had paid large sums to
the Better Government Association
to have them deliver the "church-go
ing" vote, spilled the the beans by
showing that this group was not so in
terested in a probe OF the vice condi
lions as II was In creating situa
ton where the candidate that had
"come across" with huge sums to the
association could be nominated in thu
primaries against candidates that hat
refused. n
The Better Government Association
accused one set OF officials Of havini
an alliance with gangsters and gun
men and tried TO whitewash under
ground connections of the other. !

French and Belgians
Seek to Buy Control
of Oil of Roumania

BUCHAREST, March S-The I'M
usual activity on the Bucharest
Bourse affecting principally the
shares Of the Roumanian oil companies
is due to extensive buying for French
and Belgian account. The shares of
the Creditual Miner and Industrial
Romano de Petrol, the most important
purely Roumanian companies, have
advanced from 100 to $500 and from
1000 to 1900 lei per share respec-
lively since the beginning Of 1926.
These two companies, along with
Steau Romano, are the principal en-
terprises around which the govern
ment is developing it's national oil
policy. II foreign buying assumes toe
large proportions the government will
intervene, since the mining law stipu
lates that Roumanians must own {
majority of the shares. Creditual
MINER crude production is now aver
aging $4,000 barrels daily, approx
mately rs per cent of the country;
entire output.

White was constantly protesting

included him also. At that time he

Canadians Lose Jobs
While the Government
Imports Immigrants

MONTREAL-(FP)-One day the
Canadian government announced that
it had undertaken to guarantee immi-
grants from the British isles en-
ployment for years on farms or
domestic service. The next it an
nounced, in response to the appeals
of numerous municipalities for assist
ance in relieving serious unemploy-
ment among Canadian workers, that
it was prepared to help If the provin-
cial governments would also do some
thing.
Most of the provincial governments
have taken the stand that, IL the mu-
inequalities are unable to cope with
unemployment, it is up the dominion
to provide relief, as 1t creates unem-
ployment by substituting immigration
The new immigration scheme guar
antees employment, but not necessari
ly employment with pay. If the immi
grants do not want to work where told
whether the farmers or others want
to pay them or not-the governments
responsibility towards them ceases. II
they engage at any time during the
years in any occupation other thar
farming or domestic service, the gov
ernment's guarantee no longer holds
Il is a scheme to establish peonagt
for British immigrants.

LOGAN, w. Va.-(FP)-One lone
champion of civil liberties is all the
middle class group of Logan can boast
during the 10 years of Don Chains
rule. The man is Maston White, an
insurance man, who when | saw him
had just. had all his back lower teeth
taken out as the windup of the last
beating he was given by the sheriff $
gang.
The beating took place about three
years ago after he had assisted the
American Civil Liberties union to
hold free speech test meeting on
the courthouse steps. The sheriff final
ly gave permission after White had
offered to turn over his own front
porch and adjoining lot If they could
get no other place. The speeches
we're made while automobiles dashed
about and horns honked at the depu
ties orders. Soon after, as White
was walking down the street with foul
friends, he was set upon by eigh
men, including the chief of police anC
John Chain, the sheriff's cousin. The!
kept his friends away and beat hin
with blackjacks, fracturing his skull
in two places, breaking his nose ant
cracking his jaw bone in severa
places. Then they left him for dea'
as they thought.
Skull Fractured.

shouldered physique survived, an
two of the hard-drinking thugs VIII
attacked him have since been lowere
