TUNNEY IS NOW PRIVATE CITIZEN
Former Champion Says His Al.
 fairs Don't Interest Public

New York, Aug. II NP)--Gene Tunney tried his best today to live up to his new role of a private citizen rather than the retired. un- defeated heavyweight champion.
 Tunney came home from St. Johns Island, Me, where he has been a guest at the home of his fiancee Miss Mary Josephine Lauder yesterday. He used n disguise to leave Maine, left the train at q suburban station<in New York and then went to his hotel thus evading reporters.
 The former champion contends his affairs no longer are of interest l to the public since he has retired from the ring.
 | It did become known through friends, however, that rumors ot Tunney's immediate marriage are incorrect. He plans 10 sail Thurs day for Europe with Thornton Wilder, the novelist. The rumoi had circulated Tunney would bt married before leaving on the Euro pean trip.
 Last night Tunney was the gues of honor at 9 dinner party given b. James l. Bush Among those at thu dinner were Commander Richard F. Byrd. Tex Rickard, Samuel F. Fry or, Jr, Charles V. Bob. John Nice Bowman. Bernard F. Gimbel An thony J. Drcxel Riddle, Jr., Cale' Bragg and Major Gen. Hanson E Ely.
 Also 1t was learned that Tunne, has been promoted to captain Il the marine reserve corps. He Wa made lieutenant just after he wo' the heavyweight title from Jac
 Dempsey in Philadelphia.

Inter-Church Standing

The Trinity Methodists advanced into first place in the 1nter-Church league last night by staging a ter rifle last minute rally and defeating the previously unbeaten First Luth- erans by 7-5. For four innings the contest was one of pitchers between Bill Fresen of the Swedes and Joe" Jackson, who was making his first start for the Methodists. Fresen scored a run for his own team in the third, but Carle evened the count in the last half of the same frame.
 In the fifth the Swedes took a two- run lead, increasing this to four runs in the sixth. The Methodists refused to be dismayed, however, and when they came in for their turn at bat they fell upon Fresen without pity, combining hits passes, and errors to score six runs and win the game. The result was decided upset of the dope.
 No Methodist was able to make more than a single safe blow, the leading hitters being Elmer John- son, c. Anderson, and Fresen of the losers. Johnson had three hits and the others two apiece. The line ups and score by innings:

CAMPAIGN. PRAISED
Equalization Fee Wins Sup
port at Hearing OF House
Committee.

Frank o. Lowd2n's advocacy of the
farm re!ief equalization fee gave a
political turn today TO the farm hear
ings before the HOUSE agriculture cor-
| mittce. .
The name OF tn, former Illinois gov
! ernor. whose friends are seeking tho
Republican presidential nomination for
him. was brought into the hearing by
! Representative ASwell of Louisiana. tho
ranking Democrat on the committee.
There was applause in the committee
room when the name was spoken, Iol-
lowed by a quickcnine of interest among
spectators as the Louisiana member
sought to develop further Mr Lowden's
present views.
Witness Supports Fec.
Aswell asked A. II. Stone OF Mis-
sisSirp:. vice president of the Staple
Cotton Growers Cooperative Associa-
tion. whether he believed with Lowden
that farm relief legislation should in.
ciude essentially an equalization fee.
Stone replied that the fee is the best
provision yet evolved TO handle the sur
plus, but added that he thought this
clause could b. so drafted as to re-
move administrator objections and
hiGe. He lauded Lowden as a friend
of the farmer" and approved his stand
against surrendering the equalization
fee.
Mr.. Lowden believes that the passage
of the McNary- -Haugen farm bill with
ont the equalization fee would be COM
plete surrender on the part of the West
ern farm organizations and their friends
in Congress
Mr.. Lowden, who came to Washing
ton TO attend the funeral of his old
friend, former Representative John W
Dwight OF New York. sounded a rally
ing cry for the supporters of the Me-
Nary-Haugen bill and against the ad-
ninistration forces. which are pressing
hard for farm legislation. There have
been indications that the House may
put through a bill without the equaliza-
lion fec
Against Elimination.
Mr.. Lowden declared himself fatty
against the elimination Of the equaliza-
ton fee. He said:
To eliminate the equalization fee
would not be compromise: 1t would
be a surrender
He explained that members of CO.
operatives are doing more than their
share in connection with marketing.
and said some method is needed to have
non members share the effort TO main-
tain prices
Some friends Of Mr. Lowden repre-
sented him as well pleased with the
political outlook. and as convinced the
Hoover movement had by no means
gained the impetus Mr. Hoover's friends |
