Another Bill Would Force
Wearing of Uniforms
by U. S. Agents.
CITE BORDER SHOOTING
Protection for Citizens Is
Demanded by New York
Representative.
BY RAY TUCKER

WASHINGTON, May 1.-TWO
moves to curb dry agents and coas'
guard members inclined to fire or
citizens and their automobiles were
made in the House today.
Representative Dempsey urged
stringent regulations governing the
use of firearms by enforcement
officers, while Representative Loring
Black of New York planned to ask
ar appropriation of $4,000 to pur-
chase uniforms for all men engaged
in enforcement work along the
border or in other out-of -the-Way
places.
Dempsey seeks an investigation
into the shooting of Jacob D. Han
on at Ft. Niagara by coast guards
man and a general inquiry into the
attitude taken by the treasury de-
partment and coast guard COM
manders regarding the use of force
and weapons.
He wants to know what safeguards
have been devised to protect the
law abiding citizen engaged in
peaceful pursuits, as Hanson was.
Demands Uniforms Be Worn
Blacks amendment will be pro-
posed when the deficiency bill comes
up for consideration in the House
Late this afternoon. His proposal
translates into legislative action the
general demand that enforcement
officials wear uniforms which will
inform people accosted at night,
whether the men hailing them are
breaking the law or enforcing it."
I'VE have a right to know" he
said, whether Uncle Sam is going
to go after private citizens as he
would after bandits and other des-
perate criminals. Official thuggery
must be curbed. The border patrol
should be uniformed or disarmed.
otherwise, the Federal Govern
ment will be convicted in the peo-
pies eyes of crimes as bad as those
of bootleggers and hijackers.
Doubt Over Weapon Use
Dempsey said there was a great
deal of MISUNDERSTANDING among
agents and guards as to the use OF
force and handling of weapons. He
said there seems to be no clear set
of regulations on this subject, and
he is. insistent that the response
bilities of enforcement officials be
outlined definitely.
The need for the two remedies
suggested by Black and Dempsey
was emphasized in the story of the
Hanson shooting given to the SEN
ate Commerce Committee by Admir-
al F.. c. Billiard, coast guard COM
mander, and Lieut.. M. w. RaS-
mussen, commander of the unit to
which the man who shot Hanson
was assigned.

MAY SUBPOENA
WILL HAYS TO
TESTIFY AGAIN
by United Press Leased Wire

WASHINGTON, April 15.-Gov-
ernment prosecutors in the Sinclair
Teapot Dome case refused today to
comment on suggestions that sub
poena of Will II. Hays as a witness
in the Sinclair trial starting next
Monday might be necessary if pub
lishcd reports of his activities in
the 1923 Teapot investigation were
true.
Hays is in France and the senate
Teapot committee may call him be
fore it, but it is unlikely he could
return in time to testify at the
trial. So far as could be learned
no steps have been taken by the
government to obtain his testimony.
Former Senator Atlee Pomerene
of the government prosecution said
he knew nothing of the incident re
ported, in which Hays was credited
with having coerced former Secre-
tary of the Interior A. b. Fall in
writing his 1923 letter naming T.. t
Mclean, Washington publisher, as
the source of Falls previously un-
explained affluence.
Pomerene, who was present in Ell
Paso recently at the taking of Fall s
deposition for use in Harry +. Sim
clair S defense in the trial starting
Monday, said he could not disclose
any of the contents 'of the testi-
mony.
The testimony is being transcrib-
ed in FL Paso and probably will not
be available for the court for eight
CT ten days, he said.

PLEA MADE FOR
PROTECTION AT
GRADE CROSSINGS

A plea that the city do its utmost
in an effort to have railroad cross
ings within its limits equipped with
wig wag signals, was made to mem
bers of the city council last night
by Mrs. j. $. Larew, widow Of the
late Judge Larew who died as Il re-
suit of injuries suffered when the
automobile which he was driving
was struck by train at city eros
sing.
Mrs. Larcw said that she believed
had such a warning signal been in
effect at the crossing where the
Judge met his death, her own be
rcavement would have been avoided.
The city councilmen assured Mrs.
Larcw that steps would be taken
Immediately by the board to have
such signals posted and that they
would also take the matter up with
the railroads running through the
city.
Permission was granted to Me
Neccc and McNeece to enlarge the
drivcways and cut the curbs further
for this purpose at the service sta
tion located at Sixth and Broad
way.
The board granted Pete Shenos of
the City Limits cafe permission to
renew his contract with the city for
the continuation of the sewerage
service now being afforded him.
The monthly demands against the
city were approved and ordered
paid.

OFFICERS RACE
TO SAVE LIFE
OF PR0SPECTOR

Attaches of the sheriff's office
were speeding toward Beals' Well
shortly after noon today in a race
against time and the life of an aged
prospector hanging in the balance.
j. R. Bruff of Blythe telephoned
the sheriff's office at noon that
while enroute from Blythe to inland
this morning he had found the aged
man stranded. The man informed
hlm that he had been driving four
burros but that they had got away
from him, leaving him without food
or water.
Bruff reported that the man s
condition was weak and that put
ting him in his machine he hurried
to Beals Well. But at the well it
was found that the pump was out of
commission and Bruff was unable
TO get any water. He said that the
aged man, whose name he did not
learn had insisted on staying at the
well IN the hope that his burros
would return and that he figured
that rather than insist on the aged
man accompanying him to inland. it
would be better if help were sent
to him at the well.
In the report he intimated that
the aged man apparently did not
realize the weakness of his condi.
tion and that he feared he would
die unless help were given him at
once. Deputy sheriffs were immedi-
ately dispatched to the well with
food and water to render assist
ance.

Lemons, asking for information rel
ative to the body of the man found
IN the desert near Plaster City Sun
