SCORE LOWER
House ACTION
Hidalgo League Re-
sents Dismissal of
Contest Case

McALLEN, Feb. 6.-Dismissal by
the lower house Of the Texas legisIa-
ture Of the contest instituted BY Z.
NJ. Smith of Edinburg against w. r.
Montgomery, without submission Of
evidence, was scored today by Y. B.
Freeland, McAllen mayor and ID. Z.
Kirgan, mayor Of Keslaco, leaders
Of the Hidalgo County Good Govern
ment league.
Reports received at league head
quarters Tuesday afternoon indicat-
ed that feeling was running high
throughout the county.
In reference 70 the action Of the
legislature, Mayors Freeland and
kircan issued the following state
ment:
"Not being present at the hearing
Of the issue BY the house we are at
loss to understand why this action
was taken without giving Mr.. Smith
a hearing, since we were willing to
20 ahead at our own expense and
anxious TO present a mass of evil
dcnce that would undoubtedly have
resulted in the ~unseating of Mr..
Montgomery.
"This is the only tribunal that can
hear this controversy since there is
no appeal from the decision OF the
legislature.
at is true, Of course, that the
question Of salary involved is a small,
yet the law gave Mr.. Smith the right
to contest the election and he has
complied with every necessary step.
This action was dismissed without
giving him the chance to present
his evidence.
"There Is no remedy since the
action of the house is final. We are
surprised that Mr.. Montgomery made
no objection TO the cause being dis
missed since in his campaign for
speaker he minimized the contest
proceeding and we weer informed
that he led the members 10 believe
il would never be prosecuted.
ain the face of the charges made
and of the untiring efforts Of Mr..
Smith to bring them to a speedy
hearing. Mr.. Montgomery should
have objected to the dismissal Of
the charges with them still unset
tied, but should have demanded a
full and complete hearing"
In reply to the charge that oppon-
ents OF Montgomery were n bunch OF
g~rafters. the league leaders said:
"As to the statement Of Repre-
sentative Kemble of Fort Worth we
have never had the opportunity Of
meeting this gentleman, and. Of
course. we have no information as
70 anything ever having been done
by the citizens Of this country OPP
posed 70 Mr.. Montgomery and his
clique that would give Mr.. Kemble
the right to refer 10 them rs graft
ers. And there are $500 citizens Of
this county who deeply resent his
insinuation."

8 YEARS IN WATTS
RUINS BEER

NEW YORK, Dec. 9-While the
United States Government waited
three years to establish its right
in Federal court to attach the
equipment Of the David Mayer
Brewing Company, 10000 gal
Ions of 412 per cent beer, also the
subject of attachment proceed
ings, lay in the watts of the COM
pany's plant.
After a series of actions md
contradictions filed during this
time, Federal Judge Frank j.
Coleman decided that the beer
and equipment, seized on a war.
rant in August, 1925, must be
returned to the brewery, owned
in part by Joseph Herbert.
Despite the judges decision,
Carl Demig, the conpany's robust
breWmaster, will stand by the
watts some time this week and
open their pet cocks, while the
oncecontested stuff flows, gallon
by gallon, into New Yofk's sewers.
Ever since a Government pad
lock made it impossible for Demig
to keep up the plants large re-
frigerators the beer has lain in a
warm temperature and calendars
have been clogged in Federal
courts.
To-day" said Sanford H.
Cohen, attorney for the COM
pany, "the beer. once worth $780,
900, is sour and utterly useless.
I'VE contested this case on
principle, but the beer, itself,
was of no earthly account months
ago."
Though the beer had a content
of alcohol greater than that al
lowed by law, Cohen's estimate of
its former value, is based. he said,
on what it would have sold for
as near beer.

Heavy Petting' Ruins
Chances Of Happy
Marriages

NEW YORK, Dec. 9-ChanCes
of happy marriages are ruined
by heavy petting."
That's what the Rev. A.
Herbert Gray, visiting London
clergyman, told 300 Columbia
University students at a meet
ing of the religious forum, DR..
Gray said:
Heavy petting lessons the
chances of happy marriage. You,
in America, are being hum
plugged on a colossal scale when
you are told that marriage is a
failure and something that
doesn't last. It's not the in$ti-
tuition that's being ruined; it is
the men and women"
The single standard, he said,
is all right, but the tragedy is
that women have gone down to
the mems low standard instead
of waiting for the men to come
UP to their own.

MAGAZINE WRITER
CALLED BY ROVER
Walker w. Liggett Accepts
Invitation to Go Before Jury
With Reservations.

United States Attorney Leo S. Rover
yesterday invited Walter w. Liggett
of Chevy Chase, Md, who recently wrote
an article for plain Talk" magazine,
picturing alleged liquor conditions in
Washington, to appear before the grand
jury Monday. Mr.. Liggett accepted the
invitation with reservations.
"I'll tell Mr.. Rover or the jury any
thing they want to know within rea-
son." Mr.. Liggett said last night, but I
will not be snooper or informer in any
sense of the word. I believe these con-
ditions are public property but where
got the information is my own prop
erty."
The article in question. according to
Mr. Liggett: has been purchased but
not yet published. Mr.. Liggett said his
article estimates that Washington resi-
dents consume $4,000 gallons of hard"
liquor weekly and that whisky bills
total $21 100000 annually for this city
alone.
Mr.. Liggett marks the third man to
be called within the week since Senator
Smith w. Brookhart, Republican, of
Iowa. who prompted the investigation
with a speech on the Senate floor, him.
self appeared before the jury. The in
terest of Mr.. Rover and the jury has
until now centered around dinner for
Senator'S newly and reelected, at the
Willard Hotel, termed by Senator Brook
hart in his speech Wall Street Party"
allegedly given by Walter j. Fahy, New
York broker.
One of the guests mentioned by Mr..
Brookhart, Z. E. Loomis, president Of
the Lehigh Valley Railroad, has been
called by Mr.. Rover, as well as Frank
s. Hight manager Of the Willard. Both
have accepted, agreeing to appear Mon
day at the same time as Mr.. Liggett.
Mr.. Liggett, in his article, dealt at
length he said with the case of men
who are wet in private life and dry
politically. He said that the belief he
would give startling revelations" was
true, the revelations being in connec-
ton with social functions within the
past several years attended by high
Government officials where liquor was
served.
