Auburn, N. Y., June 23.-UP)-- George E. Golden and Dwight E.. Avis. of Washington. D. C.. special investigators of the U. S. treasury department. have seized and sealed the Waterloo distillery at Waterloo. Senaca county. Ludwig Bauer. gen. eral manager of the plant and for mer president of the Waterloo Dis tilling company, was arrested on a charge of conspiracy to defraud the government under the national pro- hibition act. Bauer furnished bail last night before County Judge Mosher for $5.000.
 Hoyt Chamberlain, government representative at the distillery is being quizzed by the special investi- gators. The books. records and all data in the distillery offices have been seized and placed under charge of government guards sent from Buffalo.

SMOKING IN BED
 ENDS IN BATTLE
Woman HimS BoardG, Elon- a,ts Husband, and Fight Starts

In police court this morning. Judge Hungerford heard two cases in which men were charged with as- saulting women. In one, the rela- tionship between the parties was that of "in-law". and in the other that of boarding mistress and boarder.
 John Maiciejewski. aged 36, boarded at the home of MT. and Mrs Tanski of s1 Oak street. and according to the story unfolded be- lore tho court. he and MT. Tanski were bedfellows prior to racket last Saturday evening. About two weeks ago. Tanski and the boarder came nome intoxicated. according to the latter. and before the dawn of day tho bed clothing was set on Are. If the bed had been occupied singly. there r"uld have been no question as to the cause of the fire, but there having been two smokers in bed. it seemed to the boarder . toss-up, but Mrs. Tanski blamed him and e~on- erated her husband.
 \ few days later, ham with de- cidedly unpleasant odor was served. and the boarder refused to partake of 1t. according to his testimony. This caused more trouble in the household and Mrs. Tanski ordered him out. Last Saturday evening he called for his personal belongings and she refused to give them to him on account of disputed board bill. He claimed she attempted to strike him and he held her hands to pre- vent the assault, but she alleged that he abused her and broke a chair on her head. .....- ...
 Supernumerary Officers Gutowski and Zakowski testified to finding Mrs. Tanski in an exhausted condi- ton on a bed. apparently having been assaulted. She had cloth about her head and there was & broken chair in the kitchen. She accused the boarder and they arrested him.
 On the witness stand. Mrs. Tanski denied that her husband was intox icated with the boarder Her husband does not drink and so he could not have been intoxicated when the bed clothing was burned. She denied that anyone but the boarder was the cause of the trouble Saturday night. Judge Hungertord fined Maiciejew- ski s5 and co:

GEN, WOOD MAY END DAYS AS GOVERNOR
Coolidge Investigating Condi-
 tiow in Philippines

Rapid City. S. D.. June 2s.-lR- Philippine conditions, involving the physical ability of eLonard Wood to continue as governor general of the islands, were to be under the scrutiny of President Coolidge today with General Wood himself and Representative Tilson of Connecti- cut, recent visitor to the islands, in touch with the president.
 General Wood, who reached the United States few days ago. was on the engagement list of Mir. Cool idge late today. and Mir. Tilson came to the state game lodge last night.
 Some concern is felt by both the President and Representative Tilson over the health of General Wood, but they hope and expect that he will be able to return to his post. The governor general was operated upon before leaving for this country.
 It is the first personal report General Wood has been able to pre- sent to the president on conditions in the insular possessions. Mir. Tilson last night described conditions there as very favorable, particularly from an economic standpoint. Representa- tive Tilson. who is republican leader of the house, also brought with him some ideas about the next session of congress. expressing the view that tax reduction and appropriations should be given the right of way.
 While he is not convinced of the necessity for . special session Mir. Tilson is holding an open mind on this question.
 He does not think a special session is necessary merely for the purpose of taking up flood relief and con- trol legislation, but he Is ready to consider the advisability of giving congress a running start over the regular opening in December.
 The republican leader declared to- day that the president is anxious that congress enact some form of farm relief, but he made it clear that Mr. Coolidge is waiting until "an economically sound program" is outlined.
 Corporation taxes, in his opinion. should receive first consideration in the prospective tax relief bill. While he has no definite plan. he thinks the total tax reduction should be held to s30,0O0,O0o. and that the so- called nuisance taxes should be re- pealed. Income levies, he believes, "are about right"
 Mir. Tilson came to the state game lodge from Casper. Wyo.. with Representative Winter of that state, member of the house irrigation committee. and Mrs. Winter and the three are guests of the President and Mrs. Coolidge.

Kmetyk admitted to tho sergeant that he had slapped the woman's face. but denied having kicked her in the shins or otherwise assaulted her.
 Kmetyk testified that he was an- gered at remarks alleged to have been passed about his wife and he went to Mrs. Kmetyk's home and told her to hold her tongue. An argument broke out and he felt disposed to slap the woman. and he did 50.

THINKS MEN INNOCENT
Granting Convinced Sacco and Van. zctti Have Been Unjustly Convict cd of Murder:

cd of Murder:
 Boston. June 23 (UP)-Geor. Q Granting. Swedish lawyer and son of onetime Swedish Premier Hjal. mar Granting. is convinced Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, now facing the electric chair for murder, are innocent.
 This was disclosed in a prelimin- ary report he made recently to the Swedish Sacco- Vanzetti defense committee. A copy of the report has just been received from Stock holm by the local defense commit tee.
 In his report. Granting, who came here few weeks ago to study the sensational case, said:
 Prosecutors evidence on decisive points out-weighed by counter-evi- dence. Remaining circumstances relied on by prosecutor extremely uncertain and contradicted by prob abilities. According to, my best judgment. non-conviction would have been pronounced if case tried under normal judicial conditions.
 My opinion about Vanzetti's first trial Is the same. Can only explain verdicts by prejudice against Italian witnesses and radical defendant whereby tury's good judgment un- dermined. Find no satisfactory ex- planation of refusal to grant mo- tiom for new trial.
 After long talks with Sacco and yanzetti and other observations and discoveries compared with facts shown by records have given me strong personal persuasion Sacco and Vanzetti are innocent"

A Marked Man

Albert 3. Fall, former secretary of the in
terror, may be free man, but today he stands
marked by the highest court of the land as a
man who took an unjust advantage Of the peo-
pie Of the United States while holding public
office, merely for the furtherance of his own
selfish interests.
The supreme court decision confirms what
the newspapers have long been saying: that
Fall acted without single thought of benefit
ing the people Of this country; without q single
favorably on the interior department; without
a single thought of the solemn duties of the Of
flee which he had sworn to perform faithfully
Whether or not he is ever given a prison
term, Mr.. Fall stands as marked man today.
He has betrayed his country. The supreme
court, in pointing out his misdeeds has set on
him the stamp Of "graftcr,' and nothing he
Fan ever do will erase it.

Young Lives Thrown Away

Every year 1000 children in the United
States are moved down to death IN the streets
by motor cars. It is like wiping out the entire
population Of q small city.
Reckless drivers are to be blamed. But there
are other factors too, and not the least of them
is parental neglect. Children should be trained
carefully to stop and look before dashing across
thoroughfare.
They should not be allowed to play in the
streets which have become as dangerous these
days as the railroad tracks. They should be
taught politeness, too, toward drivers. Often
We have seen impudent youngsters crossing the
street in the middle of block and by their at.
ttude or words defying drivers to hit them.

Musical FOOlishness

Some bright person has just come forth with
the idea that worldwide contest be started
among musicians to see which one can supply
the best ending to Schubert's Unfinished Sym
phony.
The Schubert centenary committee has sup
ported the plan and is offering prizes totaling
$4,000 to the various winners.
Now comes word that Ossip Gabriowitsch,
conductor of the Detroit symphony orchestra,
has resigned his place on the centenary COM
mittee because of its plan.
Says Mr.. Gabrilowtsch: "Such an under
taking is undignified and inartistic. Moreover,
it is entirely superfuous. This, to me, seems
like adding pair of arms to the Venus de
Milo"
And Mr.. Gabrowitsch is right. Schubert
Unfinished Symphony is great work Of art.
Any attempt at finding suitable ending for it
is about as sensible as trying to rewrite Shake
speare's plays so that they have more ap.
peal to the average person Of 1927. Great
works of art are enduring, and the In
finished Symphony is included in this cassifi-
cation. Any attempt to remodel or patch them
up is not only foolish, but also inartistic, as

Editorial Comment
Hindenburg at so
milwaukee, .Tournal)

Senator Moses recently advised his party
colleagues that in the selection of candidate
for president, it would be necessary to consider
not only next year, but 1882 as WELL With
that thought in mind he declared Herbert
Hoover to be the logical Republican choice AS
Stunning President Coolidge definitely elm
mated, the senator considers Hoover alone
qualified by age to be available for renomina-
ton at the close of first term, although others
under consideration are still in the early or
middle Cos.
The fact that this is counting chickens be-
fore the eggs are laid may be disregarded. The
senator's method of declaring for Hoover gives
prominence to matter which politicians have
talked Of for many years, although it is doubt
full if the matter of age ever has had any real
Influence in determining candidates availa-
bility to head his ticket.
As reply to Senator Moses the friends OF
Hughes Lowden and Dawes have only to point
to Germany, where President Hindenburg is
just celebrating his 80th birthday In spite
of his age and the energy he has expended up
on the detail Of one of the most trying admin
istrative jobs in Europe, the Associated Press
reports that ION the threshold Of 80 he dis
plays vigor which might be envied by many
a younger man." The report illustrates his
condition with an anecdote about friend solicit
tous concerning the presidents nerves. Hin
denburg replied that he whistles when he feels
nervous, but he has never been known to
whistle.
If there was any doubt two years ago about
the wisdom Of placing man so advanced in
years at the head of the republic, it has long
been dispelled. The Hindenburg Of 80 has be-
come the hero of civil government that the
Hindenburg of 70 was of military prowess.
America can hardly fix an age deadline for
the presidency, even as an unwritten prece-
dent, without the humiliating acknowledgment
that our public men are inferior in stamina to
the beer-drnking German.

BY RODNEY BUTCHER

Washington, Oct. 13.-Many Of
us are so excited over the presideu-
tial show in tho big tent that W.
aren't paying much at' "ntion yet to
the many attractive 81. shows pre-
scented by various state campaigns
which will also eliminate in the 1928
elections.
Not one Of these senatorial, CUB
ernatorial and congressional side
shows will be more interesting
than Mrs. Ruth Hanna McCormick's
performance in illinois and perhaps
few will be mort portentous.
The announcement that Mrs. Nc
Cormick would run for congress-
nan-at-large brought the foremost
woman politician her time into
her first bid for public office for
herself. The wife Of the late Sen
ator Medill Met ormick is . veteran
of many campaigns, but now she
sets forth in her own right or the
same path along which she accom-
panied her husband.
There are four women in Con-
gress and the whole sex has = right
to be proud of them. They have
been q good influence in 30 far as
any ordinary, individual new leSis.
lator can be IN influence.
Most Of them succeeded their
husbands. Before that, they were
not politically prominent. Mrs.
Mccormick is different. Her i'm.
portance in he Republican party
has been growing ever siuce she
substituted for her father, Mark
Hanna, at the age Of is in . rear
platform speech during the Mckin-
ley campaign in 1896.
There is significance in the fact
that she is the first woman to run
for national office on . statewide
vote in . large industrial state.
There IL even more significance
in the fact that Mrs. Mccormick,
pioneer though she 10. il extremely
likely to be elccted. Whether she
will be able to follow right along in
her husbands footsteps remains to
be seen, but there is mort than .
suspicion that Mrs. McCormick has
her eye on the senstorshir, which
Deneen took from Mccormick in
1924 and which he must defend
again in 1880.
There is every reason 10 believe
that Densen viii be pushed out Of
the picture when lis present term
expires, but it Is even more certain
that Mrs. Mccormick, should she

Portable chair, a work basket filled
with nany-colored silk stockings
balanced on her bony old knees, her

upon the stocking she was darning.

asked, as she bent to kiss her aunt.

Hattie replied almost resentfully.
Seems like l never see the baby

hope you two children enjoyed your

snorted. "And every last one of

You trot on to bed, Bob. Me and

old maid and a wife get to pow

After Bob had "scooted," leaving
Aunt Hattie smiling her wry, tight
little smile because of the kiss he
had given her, Faith sank YEARLY
into a corner Of the sofa, pillowing
her head OH downstuffed black sat-
in cushion. She could feel her
aunt's sharp eyes upon her, but with
Bob out of the room she was power
less to keep up the pretensc Of being
beloved and happy wife. Her eyes
closed, the thick fringe Of her black
lashes intensifying the pallor Of her
ivory-white cheeks.
"What's the matter with you?"
Aunt Hattie demanded in voice
whose harshness did not disguise
her anxiety and love. "You look
to me like wife who's come down
with a spell of them husband
on't-love-me-any-more' blues"
Faiths cyelids quivered, but she
did not open her eyes. Pm afraid
you're right, Aunt Hattie"
"Old maids have q chance to do

ent irrelevance. "Trouble with
