doctrine" or that any manuscript was
submitted to him containing "any at
tack on any mans religion or personal
character or raising the religious issue. '
On the Willebrandt side of the con-
troversy this was described as tech
nical denial. The truth Is that nowhere
in the speech which Mrs. Willebrandt
actually delivered was there an attack
on any mans religion. The fact that
the speech was delivered at a Methodist
Conference during the campaign and
that Mrs. Willebrandt discussed prohibi-
ton caused 1t to be generally construed
to be an attack on the Democratic cam
didate. Mrs. Willebrandt herself dis
claimed any purpose of raising "a re-
ligious issue, but her explanation was
never accepted, because it was assumed
that her utterance. being made before
a religious group on the prohibition
issue, was a campaign maneuver to get
votes for the Republican nominee.

PLAN VALUATION
OF POWER PLANTS
Federal Commission Faces
Adjudication of ST 600, 000,-
600 in Disputed Claims.

BY the Associated Press.
The Federal Power Commission has
initiated an examination OF valuation
estimates OF hydro-electric power COM
panies upon water power projects
throughout the Nation.
This became known yesterday as the
result of work of Charles A. Russell,
who took over the newly created ONCE
of solicitor to the commission a month
ago, in formulating opinions for the
guidance of the body's chief accountant
in passing upon the valuation. The
commission, according to its record Is
facing the adjudication of 81 ,000, 000, 900
in valuation claims which are under dis
pute.
This work, which is one OF the func-
tons the commission is required to per-
form under the law, has not been done
in the past because of the shortage Of
personnel.
Cumberland Claim First.
The first of the disputed claims to
come under the scrutiny of Solicitor
Russell deals with the application Of
the Cumberland Hydro Electric Co. for
a license to develop power at Cumber-
land Falls, KY, and it has now been
virtually completed. 1t was indicated
at the commission that an application
for amendment of license by the Mag
ara Falls Power Co. would be the next
to be examined by Mr.. Russell.
Any decision reached by Mr. Russell
or other officials of the commission
would be subject to the approval of the
commission, which is composed OF the
Secretaries of War, Interior and Agri-
culture.
Congress Created Post.
The Office of solicitor was created
after the SEVENTEEN Congress, in its
second session, had enlarged the Power
Commissions personnel appropriation
at the request of o. c. Merrill. then
executive secretary. At that time he
informed subcommittee of the House
appropriations committee that the COM
mission had before it $255 .O0O, 900 in
unaudited claims, $275, 900 900 of claims
unsettled and faced total of claims
eventually involved in connection with
the projects already under license" of
approximately $1.000,000,000.
These claims, in many instances, are
involved in licenses granted by the
commission in the years Immediately
following its creation in 1920.
Because OF the rapidly accommodating
unaudited cases the commission. in
for licenses. except in case of emer-
gency or coming under other exception,
should be presented to the commission
for approval unless agreement had been
reached on a valuation or fixed capitaI
account of the project.
Since that time applications for
licenses have been accommodating in the
commissions office, and only few have
been granted.

Prince and Wife Take
VOWS of Priest and Nun

MILAN, Italy, July 4.-F-A
prince and princess Of Biscari, Sicily,
today took up life behind the
church's cloisters, eschewing for
evermore things worldly and their
life together.
Two days ago the prince, Palermo
CASTILLO, was ordained priest, be-
coming Father Ignatius. Yesterday
he himself bestowed the veil upon
his wife, Donna Angela Auteri,
whom he married Is years ago. She
became Sister Maria of Jesus.
The prince and princess were
married more than 20 years before
they decided to retire to a monastic
life. The prince became a novice
in the monastery Of C~arrobiclo di
MonZa and the princess entered the
convent Of Restocco, After study
the prince was ordained by the
bishop of Lodi.
At the conclusion of his first mass
yesterday in the Restocco chapel
Carmelite sisters accompanied the
princess to the altar railing. She
chanted: with mis- ring the lord
has bound me and has adorned me
with great riches"
The mother superior took off her
white veil Of the novitiate, show
ing for a second the face of the new
nun, pale with emotion. Father Ig-

SUGAR SLIDE
PLAN GAINS
Tariff Proponents State
Consumer and Producer
Are Protected

WASHINGTON, July 4.-(P-The
movement for a sliding scale tariff
on sugar gained momentum today
on the strength of the progress made
by Chairman Smoot Of the senate
finance committee, in his study Of
the subject.
Convinced Of the feasibility of
what he regards as an essential
preliminary step, elimination of the
20 per cent preferential reduction
allowed on Cuban sugar, the Utah
senator has prepared a tentative
substitute for the fixed duty.
Instead of the fixed duty of 1.76
cents a pound now levied on Cuban
sugar, or the 2.40-cent rate proposed
in the house bill which the COM
mittee is considering, his plan calls
for a sliding scale from one cent to
2.40 cents, rising as the price of su-
gar declines, and vice versa.
Proponents of the sliding scale
idea have argued it would protect
consumers as well as producers, and
President Hoover has expressed him
self in favor of any arrangement
which would accomplish such a pur-
pose, although he is not committed
to any particular plan.

Human Avalanche

On Madrid Arrival

MADRID, Spain, July 4.-[P-
The Spanish transatlantic filters and
the five British officers of H. M. S.
Eagle who saved them after being
seven days lost in mid-Atlantic near
the Azores, came to Madrid on e
special train from Algeciras today
to be greeted with an ovation such
as this capital rarely has seen.
Madrid sleeps late ordinarily, but
today at dawn thousands were
crowded around the railway station
waiting to see Maj. Ramon Franco,
his three companions and their
British rescuers. When finally the
train arrived from Algeciras a smlal
city opposite Gibraltar, they broke
through the police lines and crowd
ed onto the tsation platform.
The human Avalanche swept aside
the train portes, employees, and pas
sengeTs attempting to alight, and
kicked luggage from the platforms.
Their roars drowned eevry other
sound, even the engine whistles and
the brass bands. The large official
representation which had planned
a diginified greeting and welcome
was lost in the shuttle.

BLACKSMITH
Rail CHIEF
Van Sweringen Roads Re-
juvenated BY Former
Iron Worker

CLEVELAND, July 4-(P-Tak-
ing the Squeaks out of rafting rail-
roads has been the task successfully
carried out by John j. Bernet, ex-
blacksmith. He is president of three
Van Sweringen railroads. Chesa-
peake and Ohio, Pere Marquette
and Hooking Valley.
Into the hands of this quiet, gray
haired man some day is expected to
fall the direction of the entire Van
Sweringen trunk system, a network
of $4,000 miles with a capitaliza-
ton of $4,000. 600, 900.
This would be accomplished when
the Chesapeake and Ohio, par
ent organization, controlled the
Nickel Plate and Erie, in addition
to the Pere marquette and Hooking
Valley.
Bernet was a vice president Of
the New York Central when the
Van SWeringens asked him to head
the Nickel Plate.
1--WE don't know railroading," the
brothers admitted.
Good" Bernet replied, neither
do a lot of railroads who thing
they do. The difference is you al
nit It."
The Nickle Plate creaked and
groaned as it came under Bernets
administration. He virtually re-
built it, put IN double tracks
bought new locomotives and cars
erected new stations and freight
houses.
The operating revenueeSee eeeiSee
The operating revenues Increased
from $4,000 a mile in 1916 to $45-
600 in 1920. The stock jumped from
$35 to 5000 a share.
Bernet was transferred from the
Nickel Plate to the Erie. In three
years he spent $85, O0O, 900 and made
the road profitable.
Nothing Of glamor attaches t.
Bernet. He goes directly to the
heart of his tacks and reaches his
detectives quickly. AS head of three
roads and ultimate director Of five
his work will be chiefly that Of CO.
ordinator. Equipment must be
standardized and new material
bought.
Bernet entered railroading as g
telegraph operator, the first posi-
ton Of many men who became
transportation builders.

MASTER POLITICIAN
-. H -.
Lloyd George Still Tops Britains List

LONDON, July 1--WE Can
Conquer Unemployment; Vote Lib
eral. Save Free Trade. Insure
Peace. No Socialism"
These words Oh flaming posters
were plastered on bill-boards and
dead walls all over England.
To do it called for the expendi-
ture of much money. This the Lib
erals had in the recent election.
Here is how they got it.
When Lloyd George was prime
minister under the coalition gov
eminent, he did as it is the GUS
tom for prime ministers to do, had
the king confer titles On people
whose happiness as Englishmen is
not complete until they r SO dec
grated. Not many years ago peer
ages were conferred on SO many
brewers, or rather brewery owners,
that the titles were referred to as
"Beerages." These titles come high.
The Money Grew
When the Conservatives and
Liberals split, each deciding to go
their own way, Lloyd George di-
vided the pot. The Liberal portion
was placed in the hands of trustees.
BY wise investment this fund has
grown. 1t was alleged that at the
opening Of the campaign it repre-
sented a sum of considerably more
than five million dollars.
OF this transaction the Conserv-
atives made bitter complaint. No
less a parsonage than Winston
Churchill declared that this money
was all to have been used to fight
the Socialists. Instead Of so do
ing, Lloyd George. through the
power this fund gave him caused
many Liberal candidates to be en-
tered in strongly Conservative dis
trictS and that as a result many
Conservative seats we're endanger-
ed and lost, as a matter OF fact.
England's Leading Politician
Notwithstanding the fact that
the Liberal party has shrunken to
a poor third, it's leader, Lloyd
George, is still the striking political
figure of Britain, and with his par
tvs go seats, holds the balance Of
He knows that the greatest thing
in a political contest is sensation.

Anti-E
In Texas Means
Nothing = Mars

AUSTIN, July 4-Texas has Of
ficially Joined the ranks of Ten
nessee and Arkansas as an "anti-
evolution state" but according to
State Supt. S. M. N. Mars it
doesn't mean anything.
Texas struck out its textbooks
four years ago references to evolu-
tin Of man from lower forms Of
a5Almal life. Last week the house
adopted a resolution by the Rev.
j. w. Harper of Mount Pleasant
declaring against the teaching of
evolution as a fact in Texas state
supported schools. This was after
it had refused to pass his anti
evolution bill.
Supt. Mars pointed out that the
Etate textbook commission four
years ago, in adopting biology text
books, had required the publishers
to reprint them leaving out the
section dealing with evolution as
a fact" Since there the official
curricula Of Texas schools has been
free Of the evolution doctrine, he
said. Locally, schools have the
right to use supplemental readers
or other books which might con-
tain the theory Of evolution, but
such use would be outside the reg
ulation of the state board of edu-
cation and outside the adoptions of
the textbook commission, MI. Mars
said.
Supt. A. N. McCaIlum of Austin
public schools Monday said the
statement by w. w. McSpadden.
head of the biology department of
Austin high school, declaring I'M
founded the Rev. Harper'S charges
that the evolution theory is taught
Austin high school pupils, will
stand as the school systems answer
to the Rev. Harper.
There is nothing more to add to
that" Supt. McCallum said. Harper
charged Austin teachers with buy
ing evolution books and supplying
them for the use Of pupils here.
McSpadden Immediately. said the
minister rmation
was incorrect.
