Alabama Executive Put
In Office by xxx.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Nov. 8. -
\ split" between Governor Bib
Graves of Alabama and Attorney Cen
eral Charles Mccall over the latter's
recent statement that the Ku Klux
Khan was chiefly responsible for the
series of floggings in this state, was
reported today.
Both the governor and the attorney
general were elected by K. X. K.
votes, but whereas the governor con-
tinued loyal to the Invisible En-
pire," Mccall had a falling out with
the rulers of the Khan and suddenly
began to expose a whole series of
their crimes.
Indictments were secured against
thirty Klansmen in one county for
perpetuating 102 floggings and other
acts of violence against unarmed and
defenseless victims, and in other
counties other Klansmen were indict-
ed for still other outrages.
Governor Graves now issues a state
ment defending the K K. K, and is
making an effort to shut off all funds
used in prosecuting in the flogging
cases.

INSURGENTS OUT
after SCALP OF
FRANK 0. LOWDEN
Will Start DriveAgainst
Millionaire

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-The in
surgent republican senators, holding
conferences here, are preparing to go
into the field with an attack upon
the candidacy of Frank o. Lowden,
who has been campaigning for more
than three years in the farm terri
tory of the middle-west. Lowden is
recognized as a stalking horse for
Vice President Charles G. Dawes and
is not regarded as a candidate in his
own name.
His candidacy is regarded as de-
signed to secure pledges of state
delegations at the national republican
convention and then, at the proper
time, throw them to Dawes or some
other candidate, in an effort to de-
prive the insurgent bloc of the sup
port it would have in a straight fight
against the machine.
Secret Confab on Lowden.
A secret conference between a
number of middle-west senators was
held yesterday in the office of Smith
w. Brookhart, senator from Iowa, at
which plans were made to have Sena-
tors Nye and Frazier of North Da-
kota open the fight on Lowden.
The insurgents" are supporting
Senator Nonis of Nebraska as their
candidate for the republican nomina-
ton for president of the United
States.
Belittle st. Louis Affair.
The st. Louis meeting of so-called
farm organizations of several states
is regarded by the insurgents as a
fake performance organized by the
Lowden crowd and directed against
the farm bloc in the senate. The fact
that the Coolidge administration pol
icy on farm relief was condemned
was mere camouflage, the real pur-
pose being to condemn the progress
sive bloc" in behalf of Lowden or
Dawes.
Much noise is being made by the
insurgents, but the old guard doesn't
bother itself about them except to
proceed to weaken them as much as
possible. They will make little
noise and then proceed to support the
reaction, as they have done in the
past.

"CRIME" MEETING
HEARS CALL FOR
BUSINESS ARMIES
Coolidge Will Address
Capitalists and Cops

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 8. -
A widespread "vigilante" system of
armed business men with "decen-
tralized force of trained marksmen"
working on a private subsidy of
town and county police deputies" was
advocated yesterday at the National
Conference on the Reduction of
Crime, meeting of prosecutors, po-
lice officers, business men and "wel-
fare workers" under the chairman
ship of F. Trubee Dawson, assistant
secretary Of war for aviation. 1t was
intimated that such an army might
be useful in labor struggles.
Guilty Till Proved Innocent"
The conference was attended by
about three hundred delegates. All
of the first days speeches were in
favor of stricter laws, more severe
punishments, and the requirement of
less evidence to convict.
District Attorney Joab H. Banton
of New York made long and de-
tailed plea for change in the laws
which would allow the conviction as
accessories to crime of persons in
possession of stolen property even
where it could not be shown that
they knew the property was stolen.
He argued that in order to destroy
the "fence" evil, it was necessary to
procure convictions on a showing that
the purchase of the stolen goods was
made under Suspicious" circumstan-
ces. The statute SHOULD throw on the
receiver the burden of proof" said
Banton.
Briber Prosecutors.
The speech calling for armed bust
ness men and expert sharpshooters
was made by James E. Baum, deputy
manager of the American Bankers
Association. In addition to private
subsidy of police officers and the Wig
ilante organizations, he advocated
private subsidy of county prosecutors
to insure their activity in securing
convictions.
A beginning has been made in the
creation of these private armies in
Illinois and Iowa.
VIM. H. Taft, chief justice of the
supreme court, Herbert Work, secre-
tary of the interior, and President
Coolidge are all scheduled to address
the conference.
Taft Hits laxative Juror.
The American legal system must
be reformed Immediately to render
new trials impossible except for real
injustice" and to abolish the practice
of selecting juries of weak intelli-
gence, Chief Justice William Howard
Taft, of the United States supreme
court, declared here today in an adj
dress to the National Crime Commits
sion.
The hundreds of delegates present
took Taft's speech as a reference to
the long drawn out litigation in the
naval oil cases. Justice Siddons, who
presided at the Teapot Dome trial,
was the first to congratulate Taft
after the speech.

Release Four Communist
Deputies From Jail For
French Chamber Sessions

PARIS, Nov. 3.-Faced with
prolonged debate over the new
budget, the Chamber of Deputies
convened today after a recess of
more than three months.
The first act of the chamber was
to vote by 264 to 221 for the re-
lease from prison Of four Commu-
mist deputies so that they may at
tend the sessions. They had been
imprisoned for political offenses.

Inc law must De construed care
fully in such cases - the bureau
must watch dts step vigilantly not
to go beyond It's instructions in the
matter, Of helping those returned
veterans out of the shell hole.
One Of Those Cases
But there are times, of course,
when such a rigid construction of
the law Is not so necessary. Here's
one of those cases, clipped from the
Washington Star of December 81:
1.-THE medical advisory council and
the legal advisory council of the Vet.
Grams Bureau. two bodies of dis.
and outstanding phy-
sicians and lawyers selected from the
professions in various parts OF the
country. are not authorized by law,
according to an informal decision of
Comptroller General McCarl.
las consequence. it is under.
stood that Director Frank II. Hines.
OF the Veterans Bureau, will appeal
to Congress for special legislation to
authorize these two bodies of ex.
perts, which he feels have been of
the greatest value In advising the
bureau in some Of Its most intricate
problems. The experts at the
Veterans Bureau are understood to
have been receiving $40 a day and
expenses while on active duty. They
also have put in much time, 1t was
explained. while studying bureau
problems In their own home offices,
away from Washington"
No Appeal Is Made
Congress was in session during
half Of the ten months that GOV.
cred the sixty-eight jury trials. But
the Veterans Bureau didn't appeal
to 1t for authority to help the
veterans out of their difficulty, as
1t did in the case Of the prominent
lawyers and doctors.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1927-01-11

And it was a decision Of the un.
authorized Medical Advisory Board
that kept Bonniger from collecting
his back pension.
The Veterans Bureau operates
under the provisions. Of the World
War Veterans Act, 1924, as
amended. The Act is very liberal
to the returned veterans, as it
should. be.
1t Is one of the most generous
pieces OF legislation ever turned out
by Congress. Certainly the common,
everyday citizen never before met
with such kindly treatment as he
finds set forth in the thirty-five
pages of print paper that embody
the act.
1t reads almost like loving
mothers last willard testament in.
structions to her only son. The
veteran is favored at every turn.
The admonition to find for the
claimant in case Of doubt falls Just
short of a specific command. The
first sentence of Section 212 of the
act reads:
How 1t Reads
This act is intended to provide a
system for the relief of persons who
were disabled. and for the depend
ents of those who died as a result
of disability suffered in the military
service of the United States be.
tween April 6, 1917. and July 2,
1921"
Relief" is the keyword of the
act-relief for disabled veterans
the country's saviors. The law was
passed in heartfelt gratitude and
it is being administered in rigid
economy.
Gratitude in the wording and
economy in the doing. If the ar
rangement could only be reversed!
