If the United States government

one in young Pine county fellow who
was entertaining a widow one eve

old she was. When he hesitated she
said: why do you hesitate? You
must have some idea" We'll, have
several IDEAS" he replied, land the
reason hesitate is because l hardly
know whether to make you ten years
younger on account of your looks, or
ten years older on account of your
brains"

MECHANIC INSISTS
HE'S MISSING PILOT
Claims to Be Maurice Graham
and That Crash Was Kept
Secret.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
ELK CITY, Okla, June 4.-Despite
denials of western Air Express ofncials
at Los Angeles, an automobile mechanic
here has announced he is Maurice Ora
ham, missing air mail pilot, and that
details Of a purported crash had been
kept secret because thought there
had been too much publicity already.
The western Air Express pilot. n.y.
ing between Los Angeles and salt Lake
City, Utah, disappeared January 10.
Despite an extensive search no pre-
vious word has been received concern
ing the aviator's fate.
In relating details of the alleged
crash, the Elk City mechanic said ne
fell during a heavy snow storm IN
mountains about 1903 miles from st.
George, Utah. He said he walked to
an Indian reservation, the trip taking
three days and nights, and that he. was
taken two and one-half months later
to St, George, where he telegraphed his
employers.
"a relief pilot was sent for me- he
continued. II was taken to Las Vegas
and the relief pilot, after getting the
location of the wrecked ship, went after
the mail, taking 1t to Los Angeles
At Los Angeles c. w. H. Smith, traf-
fic manager for the air transport COM
pany, said 1.-THE story is ridiculous.
This is the first time we ever heard OF
this man who calls himself Graham.
we still are looking for Graham and
his wrecked plane"
j. B. Miller, garage owner, by whom
the alleged flyer is employed, said he
came to Elk City about two weeks ago.
He is about IS years old, the same age
as the missing aviator.
Postal authorities have denied re-
ports that the missing mail plane car
ried 100000 in currency and other
negotiable securities. The officials aid
200 registered letters, containing $500
and 100 in securities, were missing.
w. r. Harrington, Indian agent at
the Shivwits Reservation, is miles east
OF st. George, today added his denial to
any knowledge Of facts related by the
Elk City man. There Is nothing TO 1t,
he said, commenting on the story.

HAYES WILL SPEAK
ABOUT PHILIPPINES
Senator to Discuss Bill Pro.
posing independence
in Forum.

Philippine independence, as provided
for in the bill reported favorably to the
Senate from the committee on terri
tories and insular affairs, will be the
subject Of an address delivered by Sena-
tor Harry B Halves of Missouri at 9 80
pm. tomorrow in the National Radio
Forum, arranged by The Star and spon-
Sored by the Columbia BroadcaSting
System.
Senator Halves has made q favorable
report on the bill to the Senate, ana
has taken a keen interest in the prob
lem of granting Independence to the
Philippine Islands. The bill was re-
ported by q majority vote Of the COM
mittee. A minority, headed by Senator
Bingham OF Connecticut, chairman Of
the committee, submitted an adverse
report. The bill provides for drafting q
constitution for free, and independent
government of the Philippine Islands.
It provides also for a ratification by the
people of the Philippines of this consti-
tuition and for the election of govern
ment officials under this constitution.
A f1ve-year test period for the grad
ual change in economic and political
relationship between the Islands and
the United States, in order to give the
Philippine people an actual experience
in such relationship, is proposed by the
bill. After that test period has been
concluded a plebiscite is to be held, at
which the people themselves will deter
mine whether they approve or disap-
prove separation from the United States.
In the event of an Affirmative vote in
the plebiscite, provision is made for the
final withdrawal of American SOW
ereignty over the islands and for agree
ments by treaty or otherwise for the
protection of American rights and prop
critics in the islands and for the reten-
ton by the United States of coaling or
naval bases.
The Senate committee has held extern
sive hearings during the last six months
on the. subject of Philippine irdepend-
ence, Should the bill now reported to
the Senate receive favorable action in
that body and in the House. it is con-
sidered that early independence of the
Philippine Islands is likely.

BREWSTER, SANE,
FACES ARREST ON
MURDER CHARGE
CONTINUED From First paee.)

CONTINUED From First Paee.)
the Army. A so-called "blue' dis
charge usually is given on such charges,
which constitutes release from service
without honor.
Cloths decision to take Brewster into
custody was made last week when he
received unofficial reports that the spe-
cial medical board had found the soldier
to be of sound mind, and that the mill
tary authorities probably would release
him from the service. Although no EVIL
dence has been found to corroborate
any OF Brewster'S statements that he
killed Miss Baker which he later denied,
Cloth belives the soldier should be held
until every suspicion is removed, and
was fearful that If he should be dis
charged from the Army, he would van
iSh.
When informed that civil authorities
were preparing to take him into custody,
Brewster, 1t was said, showed no visible
signs of emotion and began to collect
his personal effects for transfer to the
Arlington County jail He appeared to
be disappointed however, that he would
not be able to 60 with his company on
the rife range tomorrow. The soldier
had requested Capt Boiling to permit
him to pull the targets on the range
during rife practice.
Develops RavenOus Appetite.
Since Brewster has been confined in
the guard house of the Headquarters
company he has developed q ravenous
appetite and, it was said, eats twice as
much as other members of the COM
pany. The soldier, also, between meals,
has been q steady customer at the COM
pany canteen. especially since pay day,
when he drew $23.10.
Despite the publicity given Brewster
since he has been held as a suspect
in the murder case, none of his friends
or relatives has communicated with
him. He receives no mail and his only
associates during the long period of
confinement have been the sentries on
duty at the guard house, headquarters
detectives and Department OF Justice
agents.
Brewster, however, has singled out
several men attached to the headquar-
ters company as his confdants. This
morning he told one Of them that while
at Walter Reed Hospital when he was
under examination by the medical
board, he learned that the World War
veteran for whom the police have been
looking for several months as q posi-
Bile suspect In the Baker case, was q
patient there. The soldier described this
suspect as "the man who lived In the
tent in Arlington County"

sacre" of Fox Lake. George Dfuggan
himself was so severely wounded that
he may die.
Then, last night, another death
among the Sicilians--Somnerio.
The hunt for the gangster crematory
led Roche and his States attorneys
aides last night to a West Side garage.
Opening the furnace door, expecting
possibly to find human ashes, Roche
found instead a box containing a hun
dred stick of dynamite. The explosive
was covered with ashes. Wrapped in
q newspaper of May rs date we're fuses
and detonator caps.
Ownership of the garage and of the
hidden dynamite was still being in
vestigated today.
The inquiry into gang activity Of
recent days, and the resultant police
roundup of known hoodlums and bad
men, revealed that several big shots"
in the citys gang directory were mys-
teriously missing. Leo Mongoven, one
of the listed public enemies" has not
been seen in several days and, 1t Is
believed, he may have been slain and
cremated. Yesterday he did not appear
to answer gun-toting charge, and his
SIC, 900 bond was ordered forfeited. A

was in the habit of calling her daily
by telephone, but that the custom ended
suddenly the day of his reported dis
appearance.
Six Of the more notorious hoodluns
caught in the police roundup, and a
dozen less known, were freed in Police
Court today. Among them were Hyrnie
Levine and Harry Guzcik, Klondike
O'Donnell, James Delcastro, Rocco
Fanelli and Stanley Fiazza. Quick Is
a brother Of Jake, who is controller Of
the Capone syndicate. The police said
the men had been picked up merely
for investigation and that no evidence
was available for holding them.
Another prisoner, temporarily In Gus
tody, was Margaret Hamilton, 81,
sweetheart OF gangland" whose big
blue eyes have shed tears of regret for
six hoy friends" who died like gang
sters. She was arrested last night on
a charge Of shoplifting in Cincinnati,
and the police said 1t was only coin
cident that her arrest followed shortly
the staying Of Somnerio, her newest
"sweetie."
The police call Margaret the "jinx
girl Of gangland" and linked her name
in romances with Dion O'Bannion,
Sonny Schlig, Jew Bates, JOHN Phil
lips and Johnny Sheey, each Of whom
died in gang fashion. She gained con-
tinuance and her release in court today.

This request was granted, Of course, and
the bishop set Tuesday, June s, as the
time he wished to appear before the
committee. If he wants to testify he
will be given the opportunity to do so.
If he should have changed his mind
and not want to testify, he would not
be requested to do so. 1t is purely a
question of his desire in the matter.
The committee will hear him if he
wants to testify. but will not demand
or request him to do so. unless he de-
sires, DR.. Mcbride testified, as also
did DR.. Pickett of the Methodist
board. both at their own request.
LAS said, the committee did not re-
quest and, of course, did not subpoena
any OF these organizations to testify;
it simply acceded to the requests Of
these parties and then left 1t to them
to come forward and testify or not as
1t seemed wise to them. 1t was not
concerned at all in Bishop Cannon's
political activities, as it was not au-
thurized to inquire into political activi-
ties. It dealt solely with propaganda
and lobbying. ."

MOSLEM SUPPORT
OF GANDH| GROWS
Resolution Adopted to Back
Nationalist Following Pa
rade Demonstration.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BOMBAY, India, June 4.-National-
list leaders today foresaw increasing CO.
operation of Moslem elements in the
civil disobedience campaign by which
they expect to win independence from
Great Britain.
A Iflile-long procession of Moslems
last night paraded the streets to demon
strate Moharhmedan sympathy for the
movement. Later they assembled on
the Madam Esplanade and unanimously
adopted resolution supporting the pro-
gram inaugurated by the All-India Ma
tiona1 Congress, headed by Mahatma
Gandhi
The resolution appealed to all Mos
lens to participate In the movement
and to boycott British goods. Leaders
said that as long as the congress and
the Moslefi council did not SUPPORT a
proposed London round table confer
ence to discuss the problem no Moslem
should attend it as q representative Of
his people.
Large Indian Minority.
Since the start of the civil dis
obedience campaign Moslefn participa-
ton has been much mooted. The Mos
lens represent large Indian minority,
but there always has been a racial and
religious gulf between them and the
Hindus. Their leaders have maligned
the nationalist cause and have asserted
that a nationalist government would
be predomitiately Hindu, submerging
Moslem rights.
There has been evident from the be-
ginning, however, particularly in
Bombay presidency. a tendency toward
participation by the Moslem masses,
and recently this has become more and
more pronounced until such incidents
as that have become not uncommon.

Worli Detention Camp, where salt law

STATIONS by sympathizeFs outside the
camp in denunciation of King George
on the occasion of his sixty-flfth birth
day anniversary. Crowds parading with
black flags jeered troops repairing the
barbed wire fences around the prison,
and women sat down in front of them
to impede their work, fighting develop
ing with their removal. The enraged
prisoners made a dash for freedom,
many escaping, but most of them being
brought back later.
Worli Quiet Today.
