TMK OF HOOVE R
AID DE- ME D

Representative Friedrich r. Lehl.
bach. chairman Or the House COM
mittee to investigate campaign ex-
pei ditures. vigorously denied today
that his committee was created to
'wnitewash' the candidacy Of Her
bert Hoover.
Nevertheless the impression re-
nained among political observers
thai the last-minute creation Of the
committee by the House was in
tented to protect Hoover and pre-.
vent prosecution OF him by the an.
tag0nistic Senate campaign funds
committee.
The three Republicans on the Sen.
ate committee are anti. Hoover men
The three on the House committee
are staunch Hoover supporters.
Denies 'Whitewash'
But Lehlbach served notice that
he will not allow favoTitism in the
work of his committee. This com.
mittee will not whitewasE anybody, q
he said.
The fact that the committee will
NOT swing into action until after
the nominating convention tends to
throw down the theory that it was
created TO protect Hoover as against
other Republican candidates for the
nomination.
But this fact indicates to some
observers that the committee's pur-
pose is to figure in the election
rather than the nomination cam.
paign. It is believed that the House
leaders wanted an investigating
committee more sympathetic to
Hoover than the Senate committee
IL Hoover is nominated.
Senators AssaiIed
The committee would then be
protecting Hoover as against the
Democratic nominee, rather than
against other candidates for the
Republican nomination
Everyone seems to agree, how.
ever, that the House committee was
created as result of the un-
friendly grilling to which Hoover
was subjected by the Senate COM
mittee q few weeks ago. That
griliing got on Hoover's nerves to
such an extent that he Intimated
that the committee was dealing in
low street talk"

THE DAILY
HOROSCOPE
Tuesday, July 8.

Astrologers read tomorrow as a
threatening day in planetary direction,
and for that reason time to be ex-
ceedingly circumspect.
1t is not an suspicious rule fw
women, who should be careful in all
domestic as well as business activities.
Theaters may not be lucky under this
sway, which makes for critical atti-
tude of mind on the part of audiences.
According to ancient lore, 1t is not
fortunate day for wearing new clothing,
but better for buying.
Fame for woman lawmaker again Is
foretold, and great progress for women
employed in Washington, D. c., is
prophesied.
Astrologers announce for women a
period of established success in contrast
to previous sporadic achievements.
All the signs appear to presage for
the United States a solidifying OF big
business interests and a tremendous de-
velopment of public institutions.
Health projects will continue to ex-
pand. and the Nation is to profit from
the development of the most composite
race in history.
Uranus now gains power tnat may
produce puzzling international problems
for the United States Government.
Saturn will benefit industry and en-
courage business alliances through the
year.
Persons whose birth date 1t Is have
the augury of year of many pleas
ures There may be a temptation to be
extravagant.
Children born on that day probably
will have distinct artistic talent. The
subjects of this sign usually have a
genius for dress and many attain wealth
or high places.

friend. You merely pushed the ring

The friend shuddered Involuntary,
but he thought the bridegroom merely
too drunk to know what he was doing.
An hour or 50 later all the house was

The young bridegroom was the last to
go. and only q servant saw him making

bridegroom did not have the ring I'm his
fand-this was an important fact. but
the servant may have been mistaken.
The next morning there was confu-
sion IN the house. The bride was In
Mysteries: In fact. almost insane. The
young husband was found. still dressed,
dead and cold across the bed. There
were no wounds on him. except two
bruises in the region of the chest, as
though he had been violently squeezed
BY something as hard as metal. The
ring which had been left. assunabiy,
on the finger of the bronze Venus I'm

death chamber.
The young wife, so soon o widow, told
an incoherent story. Her mind was de-
ranged But she insisted that some
heavy body got on the bed before her
husband came In. Then, rs he stopped
10 kiss her-sne was on the far side OF
the bed-she heard a moan. Looking
over. she saw her husband clasped In
two arms OF bronze-the arms of the
bronze Venus. That was all she knew
The doctor said that the man had been
dead some hours when his body was

There was never any other explana-

Everyday Law Cases
May Employer Restrain Emplope
From Competing Contrary
TO Agreement
hi TIRE COUNSELLOR.

The Thomas Drug Co. engaged Ralph
Warner to manage one of its stores.
One of the provisions In his contract
was that he would not engage in a
similar business, for himself or for tny
one else, for a certain length of time
after the expiration of the agreement
and over certain territory.
After working for the company for
two years Warner left and went into
business for himself.
The drug company Immediately APP
piled for an Injunction to restrain its
former empioye from remaining In his
business Warner replied to the suit
asking that he be relieved from his
agreement, declaring that it was uncon-
Scionable and unreasonable.
The case was decided in accordance
with the following rule:
In order to entitle an employer to
an Injunction to restrain the breach of
his employees agreement not to engage
in a competing business. it Is generally
necessary to show that by the en-
ploye's act he would sustain some
peculiar damage, such as the fact that
the employe had obtained knowledge
of his trade secrets or other knowledge
with reference to his business which
could be used to his detriment and in
jury. While the injunction remedy n ay
not be allowed. however, the employer
may bring an action for the pecuniary
damages he may sustain"

is so peculiarly constituted as TO nave

The most common type of idiosyn-
Grassy is that of avoidance Antipathies,
fears. uneasiness. disgust, distress are
members of one big family-the aver

arouse these excessive and unpleasant
shrinking or avoidance reactions and
their accompanying feelings. These
two orders of response, fear and dis
gust. though they blossom into different
flowers. are rooted in a common soil.
That aversion which you feel when
touching cold, clammy things like frogs
or snakes or that unpleasant feeling
when caterpillar crawls along your
arm Is near to disgust. You may say
that you are "afraid" of caterpillars-
harmless creatures that they are---be-
cause you call most aversions fears, and
your fears are more on your mind. If
you think the snake may bite. you are

Now, this troubled individual" Is

He shrinks. is shy, timid, and this
shrinking is drawn back into the
primitive field of disgust reaction.
He doesn't like strange faces, large
and unknown crowds: doesn't make
social contacts easily, hasn't married
and realizes that he may become a
recluse through too much giving in to
his strong aversions. Note how the
unpleasant distress of aversion Is most
acute when associated with eating,
especially eating in q restaurant sur

calmly, with more adjustment in ia

used to. We eat with more pleasure I'm

are all like that. only the susceptible

Now, these matters are far more
comfortable than we think. Lots of
people can learn to eat with comfort
