c, O.P, Machine
Splits Apart
BY LAURENCE TODD (Fed. Press).

by LAO NEINOE lOOD Nreu. ITeSSJ'
WASHINGTON, April 1S.-War is
on once more between the rival re-
publican machines in Pennsylvania,
with Boss Ware of Philadelphia lined
up for revenge against Boss Bill
Mellon of Pittsburgh and Boss
Grundy Of the Pennsylvania Manu-
facturers' Assn. President Coolidge
and his advisers were not warned of
the impending break between the two
forces until too late.
Mellon and Grundy struck first,
when in the closing hours Of the ses-
sion Of the legislature they defeated,
in the lower house, Wares resolution
for old age pensions. Wares sister-in-
law, state senator, sponsored this
humane measure, which would change
the constitution 50 that aged work
ers throughout Pennsylvania could
be paid state pensions.
His Political Stuff.
On this issue of old age pensions
Ware had staked his political future.
He knew that he would be rejected
by the U. S. Senate in the coming
session on the credentials he secured
through the lavish use of money in
the primary and election Of 1926.
But he was preparing TO run again
and win by an actual count of real
votes, by giving old age pension as
surances to the millions of wage
workers and their voting relatives in
the Keystone commonwealth.
Mother" Grundy Fears.
Grundy, who has dictated tariff
schedules at Washington and has col
lected millions from manufacturers
for political purposes at home, looked
upon Vare's plan as nothing short of
bolshevism. Old age pensions would
undermine company unions, destroy
the fear Of the boss in mine and fac
tory and railroad employ, and give
trade unionism and political radical
ism new start.
He protested. Andrew Mellon, head
of the family and head of the Cool
idge cabinet, was not officially in
formed of the Grundy- Mellon revolt
until it had begun. If he was pri-
vately consulted he gave no sign In
any event the G. Q. P. in Pennsylva-
MIA is now split wide open, as in the
Pepper-Vare primary battle of last
spring.
Mellon Pulled in.
Backing Ware is Rep. NORM Of
Pittsburgh. In 1922 the U. S. Steel
Corporation tried to beat him for re-
nomination. He was with Ware in
the primary fight last year. Now he
wants to run against Sen. David
Reed, Mellon family lawyer, who will
be candidate for denomination next
spring. NORM is said to control the
actual precinct organization in Allie
ghany County, as Ware does in PhilaI
delphia.
Thus Mellon will have to fight for
Reed and against NORM and Ware in
Pittsburgh under a handicap; he
must build up a separate organiza-
ton with the millions of cold cash
which the manufacturers will now
proceed to pay into the hands of
6rundy. Since old age pensions
have strong appeal to slaves of the
steel companies, it may prove that
Ware and NORM have discovered a
way to break Melons political
power in his own stronghold.
Andrew Mellon failed to get Cool
idge to go into the Pepper primary
fight last year. 1t is improbable,
politicians say, that he will induce
Coolidge to say anything for David
Reed and against NORM next spring.

TIMBER FOR REBUILDING

Massive Oak Pieces, Cut 65 Years

Massive oak timbers, seasoned in
water over long period of time, are

navy yard to be used in rebuilding

ords are said to indicate that this

perfect condition.
Live oak timber. due to its great
hardness, requires that it contain from
SO to 60 per cent moisture to permit it
TO be easily shaped into the desired
forms The live oak, shortly after ar
rival at the navy yard, is submerged
In salt water to protect it from drying
out and serious cracking. This timber,
when incorporated in "Old Ironsides,"
will give that noble old frigate new
lease of life, and will permit the ship
to appear again on the high seas in
a stanch and serviceable condition.
Owing to the progress of the cam
paign to raise funds through the sale
of reproductions of the oil painting
of "Old Ironsides" by Gordon Grant.
of which 100000 have been sold, the
Constitution will probably be put in
dry dock in May for reconstruction.

RICHARDS VETOES
OPEN sunday BILL
LjberaIizing Measure Would
Amend Commandments,
| South CaToIinan Says.

By the Associated Press.
COLUMBIA, S. c.. March 22-
Gov. Richards last night vetoed the
act passed last week by the Legisla-
.ture liberalizing the existing Sunday
blue laws.
The veto message was received I'M
mediately upon the opening or the
Senate. A motion to sustain the
veto was superseded by one to post
pone action until Wednesday morn
ing. when the proponents of the act
will endeavor to have it passed over
the governors veto. This would re-
quire two thirds majority of both
House and Senate and 1t Is belleVed
unlikely that this can be obtained.
Says 1t Amends Commandments.
In his veto message. Gov. Richards
says the act, which seeks to amend,
by liberaliZing, the present ancient
blue laws, would give South Carolina
"what is commonly known as an
open Sunday at least as to sports,
and in his opinion lis in conflict with
the constitution of our State In
concluding his message, the governor
says:
There is absolutely no doubt in
my mind that this attempted leglS-
ldIl0n strikes IdLdI DAON ett oAAS
of the most sacred and fundamental
pillars upon which our civilization
rests. and no matter what the puf-
pose may be, modified or amends the
Ten Commandments of God. Feeling
as / do, | refuse to be party to this
piece of legislation by subscribing
thereto"
Would Permit Some Sales.
The act vetoed by the governor
would permit the sale of automobile
supplies, gasoline, drugs, surgical
supplies, milk and ice on Sunday be-
tween the hours of 10 a m. and l pm.
1t also would permit games and
sports that are not boisterous or
commercial on Sunday.
The injunction granted by Circuit
Judge Hayne r. Rice, preventing the
governor from molesting golf players
on the Aiken links, is still in effect,
and through this injunction the mat
ter will be taken to the Supreme
Court for a decision. All cases
against Sunday golfers tried so far
have resulted in acquittals.

NEW YORK, Sept. 6.-Six young
Latin-Americans we're held by the
Brooklyn police today following the
explosion of q bomb between the
Brooklyn Supreme Court building
and the Hall Of Records early yes
terday. The authorities are trying
to determine whether the men are
the dangerous, bomb-throwing an
archists, who recently perpetrated
the New York City subway bombing
or amateur inventors and toy
makers.
In the apartments Of the men, the
police found q list Of public build.
ings In Washington. Like the man
OF the New York public buildings,
also found, the Washington buildings
were marked in red.
The police found an imposing col.
lection of bomb-making materials.
They found two partly completed
time bombs and material sufficient
to make ten others. Also, there was
a collection of machinery. bali bear
ings, clock work parts. score of
dry cell batteries, several pieces of
window sash weights and steel
shavings.
Most discriminating Of all. was the
finding of maps Of public buildings,
railroad terminals, subway stations
and railroad bridges. Then, too,
there was q book with a chapter
devoted to the making of bombs
and an assortment of anarchistic
literature.
Two maps Of the New York sub.
way system had circles in red drawn
around some of the stations. This
led the police to believe they may
have the men responsible for the
blowing up of Twenty.eighth st.
subway on the B. NJ. T. line re.
Gently. There was also a large
scale map of the Times Square and
Grand Central subway stations
with black pencil marks upon it.
All six suspects vigorously de-
MED they had any connection with
either the New York or BROOKLYN
bombings. They explained that the
material found in their apartments
was used by them as inventors and
toy manufacturers.
-Four Of the men are Mexicans,
one Cuban and the other a Porto
Rican. They are Mario Medreno,
"a, a dishwasher; Jesus Silva, "a, a
dishwasher; Julian de Hoyas, Is, a
laborer; Eugenio Fernandez, 26, Ia
borer; Victor Fern, %. baker, and
Jose Roa Christobal, 25, restaurant

to meet us. The Inlet BivaIve Quar-

With great humility We raised a

Thus It was that we were sitting
IN blissful thought when q knock
sounded on the door. We opened
it.

a touch of bravado.
