FAMOUS PEOPLE PAY
TO HERRICK

NEW YORK, April 1.-(P-Per-
sons prominent in many phases of
world affairs joined today in trib-
utes to the memory Of Myron =.
Herrick. Some of them follow:
President Hoover: Few men in
American public life have given.
during many years, such unseIfish
and such valuable service to their
country"
Calvin Coolidge: His service has
been pre-eminent in his usefulness
to both the United States and
France. His going will remove an
important international landmark
Chief Justice Taft: I'VE have not
had a more esteemed representative
at that most important diplomatic
post in a century. He is cherished
as a loving friend of two peoples
and has contributed in a remark
able degree to keeping the friend
ship between them sweet and
wholesome"
Colonel Charles A. Lindberg: II
am deeply grieved at the loss of
Ambassador Herrick, who has al
ways been more than a friend to
me. I do not believe that an indi-
vidual ever commanded greater
love and respect from the people Of
two countries"

whelmingly that no possible motive
for fraud on his behalf existed"
the committee said.
They found, however, that voting
of thousands of Mexicans or natur-
allied Mexicans for whom the
Baker machine" paid poll taxes
was established by the evidence
taken and that throwing out of
mutilated numerous ballots be-
cause of trivial irregularities was
practiced on many republican
votes.
Although declaring the election
was tainted with fraud, the commit
tees report did not go into detail
as to its findings in this particular.
Referring to Hardin'S testimony
before it, however, the investigat-
ing body said it had gained "A firm
impression of his utter irresponsi-
bility."
He charged Congressman Garner
with participating in frauds and
subsequent coercion without offering
the least evidence to substantiate
the charge" the committee reported
The Baker referred to is A. Y.
Baker, sheriff Of Hidalgo county.
The committee recommended that
its report be transmittea to the at
torney general with a request to
direct a searching investigation by
a special assistant attorney general"
Reference of the matter to the local
Unteid States attorney for the dis

COTTON OPENS
BARELY STEADY
Rally At End First Hour,
After Drop of Is To
IL Points Felt

NEW ORLEANS, April 1.-tP1-
The cotton market opened barely
steady, first trades showing no
change TO 5 points down. Liverpool
remaining closed for the last of the
Easter holidays, the market was
without incentive.
Prices continued to ase off, prob
able due to lack of support. May
sold off to S19.84, July 1891 and
October 1880, or Is to IL points be-
low the previous close.
Towards the end of the first hour
the market showed a slight tendency
to rally on a private estimate of
an increase of only 2.3 per cent in
acreage, prices recovered a few
points from the lows.
The rally was only short lived,
however, and prices Immediately
started downward under rather gen.
eral selling induced by prospects for
favorable weather in the belt and
the weakness in stocks. May drop
ped $19.67, July $19.75 and October
$19.68, or 20 to 33 points below the
previous close.
Near noon a report that an early
boil weevil statement would be is
sued by the government brought out
enough demands to absorb offer
ings at the decline and rally prices
a few points from the. lows.

Several disturbing factors deve1-

ence selling. Senator Kings pro-
posal for an investigation of stock

tons from other quarters that legis-
lation be enacted to prevent fed

heavy liquiatdion.
General Motors opened with a
block of 10000 shares, U. S. Steel

shares, and several other specula-
tive favorites changed hands in

WATCHING
REBELS AT NACO

NACO, Sonora, Mexico, April l.
tP)-Doubly watchful after expert
encing two Easter day aerial bomb
ing attacks, federal soldiers n
trenched at the Naco garrison stood
by their guns today with their eyes
on a semi-circle of rebel camp fires
to the east, south and west.
The aerial bombing, the first ac-
ton of the long-delayed attempt OF
General Fausto Topete to wrest this
border town from loyal troops un-
der Generals Lucas Gonzalez and
Augustine Olachea, killed two fed
eral soldiers, wounded two others
and threw a car into a crowd or
holiday visitors from the American
side of the border.
A lone rebel plane from Topete's
camp made the raids. The first
was in the morning, arousing the
sleepy village to a high pitch Of ev-
element. -Four bombs were drop
ped but only two exploded. The
plane flew low, and the federais
sent up a barrage Of rifle and ma
chine gun bullets.
On an afternoon visit the rebel
bomber flew 1000 feet above the
city and dropped three bombs. The
first explosion caused a stampede
of American sightseers through the
international gate. Another missile
scored almost a direct hit in the
trenches. The third bomb plunged
through the tin roof of an empty
building near the Mexican customs
house.
Scores Of Americans. perched on
railway box cars on the American
side of the border, witnessed the
second air raid. Because of the
distance they could not deteremine
the casualties but the Mexican con-
sui in Naco, Arizona, later confirm
ed the reports of two soldiers be-
ing killed and two injured.

In 1919 he was appointed mainte-
nance inspector for those two counties,

quarters here.
Under the supervision of District En-
gineer e. G. Duncan, he last Summer
directed the construction Of temporary
bridges over the swollen streams that
swept away so many bridges in South
ern Maryland.

cided to divide it into parts.
CLANCY was appointed acting en-
gineer of the newly created division
last January. His territory consists of
Calvert, Charles, st. Mary's Counties,
