Phenix City, Ala, Sept. a. ].
Thomas Helm, Jr., son of the
senior United States senator from
Alabama, was jailed here early to-
day on charges of drunkenness and
violating the state prohibition law
B. M. Haines of Standing Rock, AL
ALBANIA, his companion, also was in
Jail charged with operating an au-
tomobile while intoxicated.
Police Sergeant H. A. White to-
day said both Helm and Haines
were endeavoring to furnish bonds.
Relatives of Helm from Columbia
were expected here shortly.
The two young men were arrest

Haines at the wheel about midnight

criminal prosecution.
"Third, that while their doctrines
and views have nothing to do with
criminal case, yet it is safe to
say that if they had different doc

be here involved.
Fourth, that charges of conspir-
acy are means of entangling peo-
pie against whom there is no di-
rect evidence.
Fifth, that those really believ-
ing in American institutions should
be particularly solicitous that those
whose doctrines they hate have g

First, one man was killed but
there were dragnet arrests made

it look little bit as though there

The WASHINGTON SCENE

By LAWRENCE TODD, reiterated Press

Washington (FP)-Will young
Theodore Roosevelt, selected for
governor of Porto Rico, be duly
confirmed and proceed to his is
land post, there to find Socialist
political leader in control of both
houses of the legislature? And
in that event, will he try to fight
the spokesman of the 1,00O,OOO
poverty-stricken workers in the
total population of 100000?
That is one of the questions
which has been put up to Presi-
dent Hoover and to members of
his cabinet and bigwigs of the Re-
publican National Committee, by a
committee sent to Washington by
the Republican party of Porto
Rico. Rafael Martinez Nadal is
chairman of this committee. An
other of the members is Harry
Besosa, national committeeman,
who took part in the nomination
of Hoover at Kansas City last year.
They have to come to find what
are their rights as members of the
Republican party, and what are the
, rights of Porto Rico in relation to
the government of the United
States. They are telling the mem
bers of the administration that the
Republican party in Porto Rico is
in coalition with the Socialist OF
labor party, led by Santiago lyle
sias. They seriously question the
fitness of Young Teddy to meet the
difficult situation the new govern
or must face.

place, Iglesias and his Socialist OF

State" For the first time since the

Miners of the Anaconda Copper Min

Eleven thousand miners in Butte, 5000
Smeltermen at Anaconda and $500
more at Great Falls now are at work

DISTINGUISHED by the fact that he is one
of few people who have even partially
recovered from the effects of broken
neck, o. w Kendall, 106 Virginia ave-
nue., is regaining the entire use of his
limbs by walking several miles daily.
He expects to return to work in about
a month.
Kendall, a former display manager
for large Washington clothing store,
fell and broke a vertebrae in his neck
while preparing to dive from a wharf
at a Maryland Summer resort last Au-
gust 10.
AS result of the fall he was taken to
the Emergency Hospital at Annapolis
and found to be paralyZed from the
lower jaw to his feet. After a month in
the Annapolis institution he was
brought to Garfield Hospital in Wash
ington, where he remained for nine
weeks.
At the end of that time he had suf-
flciently recovered to masticate his own
food and smoke cigarette, and was
removed to his home.
His income cut off and faced with
the problem of meeting the payments
on the home occupied by him, his
mother and invalid father, Kendall
started efforts to walk as soon as he
regained the partial use of his right
side. That was two months ago, and
now he takes his daily walks, despite
the fact that his left side is still para
lyzed.

COUNTY TO STUDY
CEMETERY LAW
Commission to Reconsider
Montgomery Ordinance at
Tuesday Session.
BY WILLIAM J. WHEATLEY.
STAFF Correspondent of The Star.

ROCKVILLE, Md, February 9.-Re-
consideration will be given on Tuesday
by the Montgomery County Commits
sioners to the ordinance recently ap-
proved by them governing the location
of cemeteries in Montgomery County,
according to County Commissioner
Lacey Shaw of the Silver Spring dis
trict. The proposed ordinance is a re-
suit Of an application received for the
location of burying ground adjacent
to the Congressional Country Club, ind
is designed to govern the location OF
such so as to protect the public health
and safety.
While it is not believed that any
drastic changes will be made in the
ordinance as at present written, some
OF the language may be changed to
guard against successful legal attacks.
The measure provides that no GEM
eteries shall be located in the county
without permit from the commits
sioners, and that the application shall
name all OF the persons seeking the
permit, and give description Of the
land. Public hearings must be had be-
fore permit can be granted, and
license fee Of $25 annually must be
paid.
No such burying ground may be
located to allow drainage into any res
ervoir, well, spring or stream used for
drinking purposes by human beings, or
which might endanger the safety and
health of residents. It may not be
located within 500 yards of any school,
hospital, sanitarium or orphan asylum,
or established at any place where with
in a radius of 500 yards of its outside
boundary there are more than 100 per-
sons living.
Where the proposed location Is be-
lieved to endanger the public health.
the ordinance provides that 1t shall be
the duty of the commissioners to refuse
a permit. ANY permit issued may be
revoked at any time that the property
Is considered dangerous to the public
health or upon failure to pay the
annual license fee. Violations are pun

and the ordinance will take effect one
month after its adoption.

.GLEBE ROAD SEEN
AS DET0UR LINK
Early Paving Would Avoid
Bad Stretch During Lee
Highway Work.
BY LESTER ". INSKEEP,
STAFF Correspondent of The Star.

CLARENDON, Va, February 9.-The
decision of the Virginia State Highway
Commission to expend $4,000 this yeas
on Glebe road will, If it is done first,
provide an entirely hard surfaced de-
tour while the Lee Highway widening
is under way, it was pointed out today
by persons familiar with the county
road problems.
1t will be necessary, while the Lee
Highway work is under way, to reroute
the heavy Wilson boulevard traffic
through Clarendon over the Wilson
boulevard and would have been neces-
sary, had the original ALLEGATION for the
Lee Highway been allowed to stand, to
detour traffic through BallSton, and
then over the rough gravel road used
last Summer during repairs to the Lee
Highway.
with the $4,000 taken from the
100000 originally allocated to the Lee
Highway there remains just about
enough money to complete the Lee
Highway to Glebe road, thereby bring
ing the rerouted traffic back into the
main highway without the use of the
rough road into Falls Church.
While it was said that the Highway
Commission intended only to pave
Glebe road from the Lee Highway to
Ballston, members of the Glebewood
Citizens Association, under the leader
ship of Robert T. Foreman, chairman,
expect to urge that type of hard sur
faced road be constructed that will
reach from the Lee Highway to Column
bia pike, 1t was announced last night
If the commission insists upon the
use of concrete, Foreman said, there
can be but mile and quarter of road
built on the Glebe road route, this type
of road costing $4,000 mile.
While the $4,000 would take care of
one end of the road the cost would be
so high that the options obtained by
the association for widening, and
which are donated by the property own
ers on both sides of the road, making
1t 50-foot instead of a 30-foot high
way, will expire before funds are avail
able for a continuance of the project.
