ARMY EXPLOITS
LINDBERGH SAY
HIGH OFFICERS
Don't Wear Uniform"
Is Appeal of us. Aces

WASHINGTON, June 10. - The
very evident fact That the U. S. Army
is trying to exploit the airplane trip
of Chas. Lindbergh and make an orgy
Of recruiting and militarism out of
his reception back in America has
been noticed even by certain very
non-radical organizations.
Latest Of these is the Omitted

which the two chief figures. are Colo

Sends RadiOgram.
The u. S. Air Force Association
has sent the following wireless mes
sage to Lindbergh.
"Army officials endeavoring to get
you in uniform for the exploitation
of the army. Your success was made
as a civilian. Do not fall for their
stuff"
The air force association claims a
membership OF 10000.
"The government officials have
spared no efforts in their attempts
to belittle aviation, declared J. Ed
ward Cassidy, director of the associ-
alton today after sending the radio
gram, "and took no notice whatever
Of Col. Lindbergh's efforts until he
had made a success and had received
a royal reception abroad. He was
then forced to come to Washington
before reaching New York. This was
effected by having the president is
sue a "royal command" to have Lind
bergh brought direct to Washington
on a warship.
Bureaucratic Chicanery."
Referring to the uniform incident,
Cassidy said that the war depart
ment is trying "to get Lindbergh
into a military uniform for his ar
rival in order that the public may
be led to conclude that his success
was an army affair.
"The practical exclusion of civilian
bodies from the escort of Colonel
Lindbergh, and the elimination of
Billy Mitchell from any considera-
ton in the reception, are features
which should receive the attention
of the public as a piece Of petty
politics and bureaucratic chicanery."

Lacking the authority to create a
public holiday, Mayor Walker yester-
day declared Monday, the day of the
arrival of Charles A. Lindbergh here,
a day of public celebration. In
proclamation" His Honor asked that

SENATOR'S PROBE
SHOWS U, S. BANK
RULES NICARAGUA

Toribio Tijerino, former Nicaraguan
consul general in New York, in re-
porting a special investigation under
taken at the instance of Senator
Shipstead and senate sub-commit-
tee, declared yesterday that Nicara-
qua is absolutely under the domin-
ance of two New York banks, the
Guarantee Trust Co., and ]. and w.
Seligman Co.
The bankers control was effected
by means of a million dollar loan ne
gotiated March 81. The contract con.
nected with the loan, Tijerino points
out, obligates Nicaragua to give the
bankers complete charge Of the
board of directors Of Pacific Railways
of Nicaragua and the National Bank
of Nicaragua. Half the surplus of all
treasury revenues and the new taxes
established in 1927 are mortgaged to
the bankers.
Seize the Money.
The new board Of directors of the
Nicaraguan National Bank include
r. F. Loree, vice-president of the
Guarantee Trust, Phillip Tillinghast,
J. w. jerks, Earle Bale and Fl. C.
Breck. The board of directors of the
railroad includes Loree, Baille, jerks,
Tillinghast and Choat.
The loan was for only a million,
but the first thing the new boards
Of directors did was to transfer to
the two American banks all the cash
in sight, amounting to about $500,
600.
Cheat On Interest.
"The S9,5OO,OOO deposited by Mica
ragua with the New York bankers
obtains no more than and 21a per
cent interest per annum," Mr.. Tijerino
continues. "But for the. credit which
the bankers extend to Nicaragua,
Nicaragua pays 6 per cent annual in
terest plus / per cent commission
capitalized from the start of the life
of the credit"
Through the mortgage given on
so per cent Of the treasury surplus"
says Tijerino, "the bankers quite ma
turally exercise an undue influence
on the government Of Nicaragua, as
the government cannot undertake
any work of improvement, such as
road construction, etc, nor in any
way dispose of its surplus money
without the consent of the bankers.
without risking or spending one
cent, without making an Investment
of any kind, the New York bankers
have taken absolute control of Mica
ragua, its transport system, its cur
rency and credit, and by those
means, the government of Nicaragua
itself, is in the hands Of j. and W.
Seligman Company and Of the Guar
onty Trust Company Of New York.

Union, acting in conjunction with Bri-
fish spies sent over by the die-hard
Baldwin government to foment a
eounter-revolution, are being uncOv-
cred here.
Among the terrorist plots that have
been barred are attempts on the life
Of Chicherin, commissar of foreign af-
fairs, attempts at the assassination Of
various Soviet representatives in Ber-
lin, and the brutal murder Of Varov-

The plans of various white terror
ist groups, organized with the aid of
the British, included the assassina-
ton Of Stain, Bukharfn and Rykoff.
Various attempts at stirring the pea
ssntry to revolt were made. The at
tsmpts were futile because Of the IN
swerving loyalty and profound devo-
ton of the workers and peasants to
the Soviet government.
The Collegium of the AH-Union
State Political Department has issued

Seeing that monarchist white

How much are you worth from
the eyebrows up?"
At different stages in life that
part of your anatomy which is 10
Gated above the eyebrows would
vary in value. Let me start with
age of youth. All your opportun-
tiles lie before you. You car i'm
prove your mind or not Just as you
choose. Those who cease to improve
their minds when they are only Is,
or IA years of g naturally do not
have such valuable minds as those
who continue to improve theirs all
through life.
Then there are middle aged
people. They, in turn, are divided
into two classes. Those who have a
storehouse full of knowledge and
those who have vacant storehouses.
At this time of life your intellect
would be worth the most, because
you have by this time accumulated
a great deal of knowledge and the
mind is in it's prime.
Lastly we come to the retroces-
sioual time of life. This is the
tine when the mind becomes less
active. This always calls to mind,

a bald-headed business man who
happened to meet a gray haired
friend who he had not seen since
their college days together. The
business man began commenting on
the others gray hairs to which his
friend replied Your hair sinks
it's roots deeper into the scalp every
year. When they get in so far, if
it hits gray matter, it turns gray.
but if they strike a vacancy the hair
falls out. That is the way you can
tell the value of an older persons
brain. The only fault l a find
with this method is that you have
to wait until people become either
bald or gray haired.
The Indians also had a ems OF
value OF the head. Whenever they
killed an enemy they always TOOK

they decorated their homes with,
if their value is nothing else,
they can be considered as a decora-
ton.
