DRY AID REQUEST
Says Demands on Canadian
Government Are Confes-

Nv III. Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Contending that dry" America con-
sunes more Canadian liquor than does
wet" Canada, Representative La Guar
dia, Republican, of New York, declared
in the House today that the United
States was asking Canada to enforce
the prohibition law for her
Canada, he said, was cooperating
fully with the United States and has
done more in helping the enforcement
of prohibition in the United States than
the Government of the United States
has been able to do"
THE present demands made on the
Canadian government" he added, "are
nothing but a confession of weakness
on the part of the United States Gov
ernment and an example of the COM
plete failure of prohibition
Says Promises FULFILLED.
The New York member said the
Canadian government had faithfully
fulfilled the stipulations agreed upon in
the treaty of 1924.
Now the United States Government
asks the Canadian government" he
continued. Ito change its law. to make
that which is now lawful in Canada a
crime and to deny clearance to vessels
containing liquor bound for the United
States and even to prevent deliveries
Of liquor from the distilleries and ware
houses If such liquor is eventually to
find its way into the United States.
Such a far-fetched request of ask
ing a foreign government to enact laws
in order to make unlawful in order to
in their country is lawful in order to
assist the enforcement of local law
has never been previously recorded III
the history of the world.
Mostly Under Five Tons.
THE United States now asks Canada
to again amend its treaty by changing
local Canadian laws so as to prohibit
vessels from clearing from Canada
ports carrying liquor to the United
States It is interesting to note that
these vessels are mostly under tons,
and. under the law and customs of the
United States, vessels under ) tons
clearing for foreign ports are not re-
quired to obtain clearance papers"
La Guardia added that the minister
Of national revenue of Canada had
stated that 100 per cent Of these YES
sells were American owned and Arieri-

LONDON. June 3-1n conference
with his colleagues of the cabinet this
afternoon, Stanley Baldwin, prime
minister of England, and head Of the
Conservative government. which has
guided the nation since october, 1924
decided to tender the resignation Of his
ministry to the King.
His action. caused By the defeat Of
the Conservative party in the general
elections Thursday, is in agreement
with constitutional usage and with the
advice of powerful Conservative leaders
and most of the Conservative press.
The lobby correspondent of the Daily
Express today said in the columns of
that paper that David Llyod George
had decided the Liberal party WOULD not
support the Conservatives IN coantlon
against Labor
THE paper said the Liberal Chieftain
met with Lord Reading, Sir Herbert
Samuel and two others yesterday ana
would meet his shadow cabinet" today
If his colleagues concurred IN his views
the party will be advised accordingly.
Premier Baldwin. back in Downing
street after a week end at Chequers
Court. began consultations with govern
ment leaders this afternoon.
Winston Churchill. chancellor OF the
excheouer, and Sir Austen Chamberlain,
the foreign secretary. were the flrst to
take up with their chief the question OF
what policy the Conservatives will adopt
in the face of their smashing defeat IN
last weeks general election.
Ministers Will Meet.
The prime minister's return to Lon
don contrasted Sharply with tne VIC
torious entrance of Ramsay Macdonald,
the Laborite chieftain, who now heads
the strongest party in the new Parlia-
ment.
During the week end while Premier
Baldwin was at CheQuerS there were
MANY visitors at the famous house, in
cluding King Georges private secretary,
Lord Stan1fordhan1. and the Marquis or
Salisbury, Conservative party leader In
the House of Lords.
Lord Stanlfordham's visit only became
known when his chauffeur inquired at
High Wycombe which was the right
road for Chequers. The police ohdcer
noted that there were no number plates
on the car. On calling attention to
this he was informed that 1t was a
royal car, whose occupant was the
Kings private secretary.
It was presumed that Lord SIAM
fordham wished to get some idea for
the King what political procedure would
likely be followed within the next few
days.
Messages From All Over World.
Ramsay Macdonald spent the morn
ing at his Hamstead home dealing with
a mass Of correspondence, including
heaps of congratulatory messages from
ali over the world.

If Henry Mason Day knows how to
WELD a shaving brush with dexterity
and use BARRIERS scissors his work
at the District Jail is cut out for him.

the United States that sends Day, one

will be transferred to Atlanta soon to

should he prove capable Of taking die

Sinclair Gets Six Months More.
The ruling that sent Day to Jail
imposed an additional six months
sentence on Sinclair. In advance OF
the ruling. authorities speculated
whether the oil man would have to
serve six months in addition to the go
days imposed for his contempt of the
United States Senate or whether the
two sentences might run concurrently
in part. 1t was said at the jail that
in any event. the routine for him would
be the same. He will continue as
assistant to the physician. and will
form the acquaintance Of new medic, "
for DR.. Hyman is leaving his position
July /.
Sinclair and Day, who conferred
frequently during the oil trials, will have
few opportunities to visit each other.
Few prisoners see Sinclair except at
meals. Day will eat at the same table
| with his former superior If he is as
signed to ONCE works, but at other
| times. he scarcely will be aware that
the oil man is in the same building.

L|NDY AND BRIDE
ON YACHT CRUISE
Lone Eagle Takes to Sea on
Honeymoon in Hunt for
Privacy.
~ the Associated Press.


NEW LONDON, Conn, June 3.-Col,
Charles A. Lindbergh and his bride,
who was Miss Anne Morrow, went to
sea for their honeymoon. In a new
3S-foot motor boat, the Mouette. they
have been cruising in Long Island
Sound since their marriage at Engle-
wood, N. j., week ago. probably tying
up in some quiet harbor along the Long
Island shore each night
Just at present it is believed the
Mouette is off the tip of Long Island
heading for Boston in a leisurely way.
Privacy Hard Won.
When it was finally determined today
that they had taken to the sound for
their hard-won privacy it was learned
for the first time that Col Lindbergh
had bought boat or even knew how
to operate one.
1t was learned that in purchasing the
boat he had made the condition that
no news of the occurrence be made pub
lie and that the sale and delivery be
shrouded in the greatest secrecy For
this reason the officials we're unable to
confirm the story, although their agree
nent did not go so far as to cause
them to deny the truth of it,
On Saturday afternoon, new boat,
with a tall, light-haired young man at
the wheel, put in at Block Island for
gas and oil, and Capt. Louis Rounds of
the Elizabeth Ann gave him a helping
hand to tie up. In the pilot house
there was an exchange of seafaring
and other talk and the yachtsman ad-
m1tted to Capt Rounds that he was
the colonel.

Legislation for Site Purchase
at This Session Foreseen
After Talk With Hoover.
FAVORED BY TILSON,
LONGW0RTH AND OTHERS
Immediate Acquisition Before Land
Rises in Value Held Emer-
gency by Chairman.

Following a conference with the
President today, Chairman Simmons of
the subcommittee on District appropria-
tions is more hopeful than ever that
legislation will be passed at. the present
extra session of Congress, providing for
immediate purchase of the site for the
new civic center with the accumulated
surplus from District taxes already
existing in the Treasury.
Chairman Simmons today is holding
conferences with House Leader T1son,
Speaker Longworth and other members
Of the Republican steering committee In
order to make certain that If estimates
for the purchase of the four squares
north of Pennsylvania avenue, between
Third and Sixth streets to judiciary
Square, are sent up from the Budget
Bureau, that they will not be antagon-
istic to the program of the House
leadership.
Tilson Expresses Favor.
House Leader Tilson has expressed
himself as agreeable and Mr.. Simmons
had previously secured the acquiescence
of the members of the appropriations
committee, who pass upon urgent and
deficiency items of appropriation He
anticipates no objection to this legis-
lation in the House.
Mr. Simmons emphasizes that this Is
an emergency because Congress has
made it clear that these four squares
are to be taken for a civic center and
the price of the land will run up If
the purchase Is delayed. He anticipates
no objection in the House, because not
one dollar comes from Federal funds,
but the entire amount has been ac-
cumulated from taxes paid by District
residents. and the only purpose is to
make this money 60 farther by spend
ing it now. -
Housing Shortage Relieved.
In his talk with the President Mr..
Simmons also stressed that the irame-
diate acquisition of this property would
relieve an already existing housing
shortage for District activities such as
the Juvenile Court which have been
ordered out Of the building which they
now occupy to make room for the Fed
eral Development program.
He said today that II the purchases
OF the new site is made immediately
there are buildings on this property
which could be used for several years
by these District agencies which are
being ordered out Of their present quar-
ters and others that could be used to
relieve congestion that already exists
in the Municipal Building.
