Feminine Feud In Illinois Politics
 Promises to Become Bitter Fight

Chicago, Sept. LP-The feminine feud of Illinois politics today was assuming proportions of national precedent.
 With Mrs. Lottie Holman O'NeiIl entered as an independent candidate for the United States senate. op- posing Congresswoman Ruth Hanna Mccormick, republican, and James Hamilton Lewis, democrat, the first picture of two women contesting with a man for high office is paint ed into national history.
 Takes Dry Stand
 Mrs. O'Neill predicated her can- didacy on what she termed the dis satisfaction of ''the dry people of Illinois with the declaration of the republican state convention" on pro- hibition. That declaration bound the party candidate, Mrs. Mccormick, to abide by the decision of the voters in the wet and dry referendum to be taken in November.
 Mrs. O'Neill, Illinois first woman legislator, has heretofore sought of flee as a republican. She has long been a militant prohibitionist.
 Former Senator Lewis has an- nounced he will campaign as a can- didate for repeal and modification of prohibition laws.
 Mrs. McCormick's answer to the challenge of her new foe was a statement from Springfield, where she arrived last night on her tour of the state with other republican can- didates and leaders. The candidacy of Mrs. O'Neill, Mrs. Mccormick said was 'calculated to split the vote against the democratic candidate, who stands for notification and vio- lation of the laws enforcing prohi- bition. and notification of the con- stitution of the United States and was, "a blow at the cause of law en- forcement in Illinois"
 Against Majority Rule
 "The democrats have declared against majority rule in Illinois and the third candidate now entering the race is likewise opposed to majority rule" the Mccormick statement add ed. T accept the issue"
 Mrs. Mccormick asserted, also, that the third candidate now in the race disagrees with the president when he says citizens have right to work openly for repeal"
 Mrs. Mccormick and Mrs. O'Neill, l former associates in women's activ- ities of the republican party, reach ed the parting of the political ways at the national republican conven- tion of 1928 when Mrs. O'Neill was a candidate for national committee woman from Illinois. The rift wi dened when the woman legislator charged Mrs. Mccormick with re- sponsibility for Mrs. O'Neills failure to obtain legislative chairmanship | she sought.
 Sharing interest November 4 with the outcome of the triangular con- l test for senator will be the decision Of the voters on the prohibition ref erendum, involving state and na-

WARNING GIVEN
TOMATO MEN
Packing Complaints Still
Being Received BY
Local Inspector

AS a result Of a telegram from
Washington to the local division
OF the department of agriculture,
state supervising inspector H. T.
Longino is investigating the weigh
ing and packing OF tomatoes n
the Rio Grande Valley, according
to W. d. Googe, local representa-
tive.
It has been reported from Phila-
delphia. Chicago and Boston that
Valley tomatoes are reaching those
markets irregularly packed, i'm
properly labeled and short weight.
Il interviewed several packers
and shippers in Brownsville, and
they said that during the early
part Of the season many shipments
were not up to standard because
growers were anxious TO ship quick
ly and obtain the high early prices"
MI. Googe said Saturday. They
seem to think that as the season
progresses, shipments viii be more
perfect"
Unless tomatoes are shipped uni
formly and correctly packed and
weighed. the reputation Of Valley
vegetables will be damaged, and
the situation will be investigated BY
the Bureau Of Chemistry at Wash
lngton, It is said.
st. Louis also reported poorly
packed tomatoes. bulletins issued by
the department Of agriculture show.
Shipments cut Of the Valley this
season are unusually heavy. govern
ment statistics disclose. From pres
ent indications shipments viii con-
tinue to be heavy, as there are
many tomatoes left in this section.
y A comparison Of Texas shipments
OF tomatoes with Florida shipments
in large northern and eastern
cities shows a large majority for
Texas. Florida Friday shipped &c
to Texas 35 carloads. Cities show
ing or the bulletin are New York,
Chicago. Fort Worth. Philadelphia,
Pittsburgh. Kansas City. Detroit.
Cincinnati. Cleveland. Boston, st,
Louis and Denver.
Il feel certain that Valley TO-
matoes viii leave the section cor
rectly in the future" Mr.. Googe
concluded.

SET BY GIRL

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 2 U.S9
Ruth Nichols, who doesn't like 1t

She said, when she left New
York a few days ago, that she
expected to cut about eight hours
from the women's transcontinental
flight record.
When she set her plane down
at United Airport yesterday at
11:5712 a. m. she had done it with
441a minutes added for good meas
ure. Her flying time from New
York to Los Angeles was 16 hours
SO minutes and 80 seconds. Mrs
j. M. Keith-Miller, the previous
record holder. set a westbound
mark of IS hours and A minutes.
The New York girl plans to
confer with radio officials, .spon-
soring her transcontinental flight

present eastbound record for wo-
men, also set by Mrs. Keith-Miller,
is 81 hours and 81 minutes.

overwhelming vote the New York
Churchman'S Association yester"

Manning and permitted former
Judge Ben 2. Lindsey, of Denver,
advocate of birth control and
companionate marriage, = speak
at its luncheon.
The association is composed of
Protestant Episcopal clergymen
and DR.. Manning, Episcopal
Bishop of New York, had de-
manded that Judge Lindsey be
excluded.
Only a week or so ago more
than a dozen of his clergymen
took issue with a pronouncement
of his that appeared to them to
indicate leanings toward the
Catholic rather than the Protes.

Bishop Manning was absent
yesterday because of illness, and
Judge Lindsey waited in an ante.
room of the club where the
luncheon was held while the
clergymen debated for an hour
and a half. The debate hinged
more on the question of free
speech and censorship than upon
Judge Lindsey's views on mar.
riage and divorce. It was said
there was only a handful of dis
senting votes.
The Rev. DR.. Elliott White, of
Grace Protestant Episc copa1
Church, then invited Judge Lind.

spoke on "The Institution of

Eight members walked out of

Lack of public demand, has
sounded the death knell Of the
bill which would have given the
District a public market to re-
place the Center Market, which
will be torn down the first of the
year.
Senator Arthur Capper, of
Kansas, chairman Of the District
Committee, and author Of the
measure which was introduced
last winter, said today he has
virtually given up any idea Of
pushing the measure at the ses-
sion which started yesterday.
No Increase Seen
At the same time a warning
was sounded on Capitol Hill that
unless the appropriation for
100000 for a wholesale produce
market in the Southwest is ade-
quate to purchase necessary land
and erect suitable buildings, there
is no hope that the coming Con
gress will increase the appropria-
ton.
Efforts to purchase a site for
tho Southwest market recently
resulted in such high prices being
asked for the desired land that
condemnation proceedings are
about to be instituted. Should
condemnation jury fail to bring
the price down to that within the
bounds of the appropriation, it
would be necessary to go to Con-
gres5 to obtain additional funds.
Such a move, it was flatly stated
at the Capitol today, would re-
suit in the loss of the money al
ready appropriated and would
mean that no produce market
N>uld be authorized.
Capper Disappointed
Senator Capper seemed disap-
pointed at the failure Of District
citizens to rally behind his bill
for relacing Center Market. He
said that he did not deem the
support given the measure suffi-
cient to warrant his pressing for
action on it at this short session
of Congress.
The measure, hearings upon
which were held last winter,
would have authorized an appro-
priation of $1,3OO,O0O. Of this,
100000 would have been for pur-
chase of centrally located land.
while the remainder would have

Av|ATR|X SAVED
BY LIFE RAFT

MIAMI, Fla, Dec. 2 qN.S)-
A plane piloted by Capt. William
N. Lancaster took off from the
Pan-American Airport at 7:40
a. m. for Nassau to bring Mrs.
j. M. Keith Miller, noted Austral-
ian aviatrix, to Miami.
Captain Lancaster has been as
sociated with Mrs. Keith-Miller
in a number of her flights. He
was in Miami to direct search
for the missing flier when news
came yesterday that she ha6
been found on Andres Island, il
the Bahamas.
It was expected that the plane
would pick up Mrs. Keith-Miller
and return to Miami some time
during the afternoon.
Used Life Raft
John Liggets, of Pittsburgh,
treasurer of Aero Enterprises, the
organization which backed Mrs.
Keith-Miller's Pittsburgh Havana
flight, and Karl E. Voelter, head
of the Curtiss-Wright Company
here, accompanied Captain Ian
caster to Nassau.
Captain Lancaster told re.
porters here that his dispatches
from Mrs. Keith-Miller stated she
had been forced to land her ship
on the ocean and escaped death
through the use of life raft until
she was picked up by fishermen
Landing Puzzles
The American manager at Mas
sau, however, informed Pan
American officials here that Mrs
Keith-Miller landed on an island
of the Bahamas group and that
her plane was not damaged.
Aviation followers here were
puzzled over the question of how
the Australia aviatrix got so ta1
off her course.
