WARRANT ISSUED
TO ODEPORT REMUS
Investigation ConvinCeS Of
ficiaIS That Bootleg King
Is Not a Citizen.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
AS a step toward deportation pro-
ceedings the Department of Lat mas
issued warrant for the arrest OK
George Remus, former brewer of Gin
cinnati, who served a term in Atlanta
penitentiary for bootlegGing.
Deportation Of Remus is sought on
the ground that he entered this coun-
try by means Of false and misleading
statements; that he is a person likely
to become a public charge, and that
he has been convicted of a felony or
other crime involving moral turpitude
since his entry into the United States.
Testified Before Senate.
Remus was convicted at Cincinnati
for violating the prohibition act, and
was sentenced to a term in the Atlan'
ia prison. While serving there he
was brought to Washington TO become
a star witness in the Senate investi-
cation of the administration of the
Department of Justice under Harry
NJ. Daugherty. subsequently he made
an affidavit repudiating his testimony.
Since the release Of Remus from
Atlanta the Department Of Labor has
investigated his case thoroughly and
evidence has been adduCed to show
that he was horn near Berlin 40 years
ago. RemuS claims TO have come to
the United States first in 1880 or 1881
with his parents and To have landed
at Baltimore. From that place his
family moved first to Chicago and
then to Milwaukee.
Fathers Citizenship Denied.
Remus claims to have been TWO and
a half years old at the time of his ar
rival in the United States. Accord
ing to the records in the case AS com
piled by the Department of Labor,
Remus makes no claim to having been
naturalized himself. but sets up the
naturalization Of his father Frank
Remus. A search Of the records at
partment officials say, fails to show
that the father was naturalized.
Acting Secretary White says that
after the execution of the warrant
Remus viii be given a hearing before
an immigration inspector and the de-
cision as to his deportation will he
governed by the evidence then adj
duCed.

TARIFF CHALLENGE
REFUTES OPTIMISM
Seen as Rebuff to G. 0. P.
Reports That AIS Well
With Western Farmers.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE.

Senator Capper's announcement
that a revision of the tariff would be
sought by the farm bloc at the De
cemher session Of Congress is the
Vests answer to the persistent i'm
preston disseminated from the eX-
ecutive offices. at Paul Smiths. that
all is we'll in tle agricultural areas.
For many days the agricultural
leaders have been reading the pub
lished reports emanating from visit
ors and guests at the presidential
camp that conditions of prosperity
are prevalent in virtually all parts
of the West, with the exception of
few spots.
The inference has been given that
this would mean a dying down of the
agricultural revolt. Mr.. Capper. as
the chairman of the farm bloc and a
more or less conservative Senator.
has taken issue with this view and
let 1t be known that while conditions
are better In the West. the deman nd for
the McNary HauGen bill has not
vanished and that retaliatory meas
ure 1s In prospect for the manufacture
ing East in the form of lower duties
on many important commodities used
by the farmer.
Blow Directed at Mellon.
The statement that the duty on
aluminium would be reduced if the
farm bloc has its way is interpreted
OF course. as directed at Secretary of
the Treasury Mellon. who has the
largest aluminium interests of any one
man In the country, and who took oC-
caslon last Spring to denounce the
McNary- -Haugen plan as unscientific
GENERALLY speaking, the talk of tar
III revision has been growing for
the last three years. and much Of the
talk has been emanating from the
western Republicans. Now, with the
aid Of the Democrats. revision of
ihe tar1n can he put through Con
Sress, but whether the move is mere.
~ threat to force the passage of
agricultural legislation or simply a
move to embarrass Mr.. Coolidge in
the West remains to he seen. The
President could veto tariff revision
ana II IS certain no tWO-thirds vote
could be developed to override his
veto. The Eastern Republicans will
stand pat on the issue and the mat
ter is serious only In showing the
temper Of the Western Republica ms
and their capacity for complicatinc
matters for President Coolidge.
1t seems almost certain now that
- "S ~ ui'uidi eSlslatlon is deferred
another session of Congress. the
Western farm elements will seek to
have candidate of their own at the
Republican national convention.
Senator Capper is the one execution
to the long list of optimists at Paul
Smiths this Summer. All but the
Kansas Senator brought pleasant
news and submitted to interviews tell
ing even more favorable things about
the political situation. Mr.. Capper's
dlscordant note Is due not only to his
honest convictions on the subject. hut

Applies Only to Homes.

Judge Schuldt pointed out that
Congress must have intended the
conditions to apply to the dwellings
rather than the alleys, because the
word water main" was mentioned
several times in that connection in
the act. How could water mains be
placed in dwellings," the opinion
asks.
Judge Schuldt also pointed out that
gas and electric equipment is not de-
nunded by any law or regulation to
be placed in any houses of any other
section of the District. and that IL
would not be fair to assume Congress
intended all these facilities in the al.

them would be installed in the houses

" enacted September IS. 1914 and

Your brown eyes were wistful
AS you looked at me from out the
Great Unknown.
Then you smiled winsomely,
But frowned curiously
When I did not come to you as

If | only could,
But all 1 can do now is pray to
dream Of you.
1t is cruel Little One,
My own chosen one,
That you were SO soon taken from

Yet l should sing in joy
To one so coy,
For 'tis not every mortal's lot to
know and love
One of Gods own angels,
This thought alone dispels
All remorse l have felt in many

So now / am happy
For tonight l may see
You again in dreamland, my own
