D|SBARRED LAWYER
DRAWS JAIL TERM
Norman S. BoWIeS of Capital
Convicted for Second Time
in Contempt Case.
Special Dispatch to The Star.


BALTIMORE, Md, December 90
Judge William C. Coleman today sem
fenced Norman S. Bowles of Washing
ton to SIS days in Jail on charges OF
contempt growing out of Bowles ap-
pearance before him in the United
States District Court here as prac-
ticing attorney in November, 1929, fve
months after Bowles had been barred
by the Supreme Court of the District
of Columbia.
Judge Coleman had passed similar
sentence on Bowles several months ago,
but it was set aside when an appeal
taken by Bowles resulted in his being
granted a new trial. Another appeal
was taken today by John Phillip Hill,
Bowles' lawyer, and the WaShingtonian
was released on $4,000 bail.
The hearing today was enlivened by
the filing of motion by Hill asking
that BowleS be tried before another
Judge, inasmuch as Judge Coleman was
alleged to have shown himself to be
prejudiced against the defendant.
Judge Coleman denied both this mo-
ton and another motion seeking jury
trial
Bowles first appeared before Judge
Coleman on November 81, 1929, as
counsel for Thomas Knott, who was &C
cused of having violated the prohibit
ton laws. Knott pleaded guilty and
was fined 5000. Bowles had represented
himself as an attorney at law in Wash
ington.
An investigation later revealed that
Bowles had been disbarred by the Su-
preme Court Of the District of Column
bia on June IA, 1929 Judge Coleman
issued a bench warrant for Bowles' ar
rest and following a hearing some
months ago sentenced him to go days
in iail

The directors name was brought iuto
the investigation suddenly. Charles !.
Stengle. former member of Congress
from New York and now editor of the
National Farm News, sprang up as the
committee was questioning John F.
Blackwell. composing room foreman of
the Independent Publishing Co., which
publishes the farm paper. Blackwell
had said he did not know who placed
the order for the Nebraska literature
with his firm.
II am violating a confidence" shout
ed Stengle, but in the interest of truth
that order was placed in my hands by
Robert H Lucas of the Republican Ma
tional Committee"
He went on to say Lucas placed the
order about the middle of October,
paid for it in cash and gave him in
structions that 1t be shipped to John
M. Fetters, Omaha National Bank
Building, Omaha.
Chairman Nye said the committee
had been unable to find any one by
that name in Omaha and in reality
the literature went to Elmer 3. Steven
son, who headed the campaign for
State Treasurer Stebbins, the Republic
an senatorial primary candidate.

YALE DEAN. LITERARY CRITIC.
FILLS TIME WITH GOVERNORSF1IP
Prof. Cross and Gene Tunney
Constitute "Strong Minor
ity" in Hartford.
He Is Only Democrat and
Will Deal With Repub-
Iican Legislature.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW HAVEN, Conn, December 20
Because he was SO years old they re-
tired Prof Wilbur l.. Cross, dean Of the
Graduate School at Yale University, last
June.
That left him with nothing much to
do but edit the Yale Review and carry
on his work as one of Americas fore
most literary critics.
So he went out and got himself elected
Governor of Connecticut. and now he Is
satisfied that his time will be just nice
ly filled again.
He had no particular desire to be Gov
ernor. He had never run for Office be-
fore. But Prof Cross believes IN the
two-party system, and he is Demo-
crat.
Il thought that even in Connecticut
we Democrats ought at least to consti-
tute a strong minority" he said today.
Il decided the party needed building up.
So said I'd run if they'd let me make
few changes in the organization.
Names Tunney Aid.
The Democrats are going to have that
strong minority" III Connecticut these
coming two years. 1t will consist of
Gov. Wilbur LuciuS Cross, all by himself.
He and Gene Tunney, whom he has
appointed a major on his staff, will be
about the only Democrats i'll Hartford.
Not only will Prof Cross be the first
Democratic Governor Connecticut has
had in 20 years, he will be the only
Democratic State official put there by
the voters. And he'll be dealing with a
legislature of Yankee farmers, over
whelmingly Republican.
But Prof. Cross is not particularly
uyorriod ahOl1t thocn VonlIpa farmers He
is a Yankee himself. His forefatherS
settled in Connecticut more than 300
years ago. His father was Yankee
farmer and a Democratic legislator,
too. And he reasons that quite few
Yankee farmers must have voted for
him a few weeks ago.
Prof. Cross believes he knows his
Yankee farmers. He conducted his cam
paign in the homely terms of the farm
yard.
Prof. Cross, tall, we'll set up man,
with gray hair and a ruddy complexion,
was long ago given by Yale students
the nickname uncle Toby" That was
because of his fondness for Laurence
Sterne and "Tristram Shandy." One
of his most notable works is a life
of Sterne.
He is going to continue as editor Of
the Yale Review and will keep on writ
ing literary criticism. His latest vol
ume, on Conrad, Bennett, Galsworthy
and Wells, came out during the CAM
paign.
And one thing he cannot understand
is why any one should think it out
of the ordinary for a retired professor
of English literature and dean emeri-
tus of Yale University to become Gov
ernor of Connecticut at the age of SO.

to officialdom or to the public at large.
He disclosed, as a matter OF fact, that
but for the insistent clamoring OF those
who fought under him in the dark days
of 1918 he might not have completed
his literary undertaking.
MANY times I was tempted to leave
the job undone," Gen. Pershing remark
ed. but each time / was forced to re-
consider and go back to the story under
the pressure of friends. They made me
see 1t was ar impersonal duty I had TO
perform-an obligation TO the public I
could not well evade."
Gen. Pershing is disinclined to reveal
the number of messages he has re-
ceived since announcement of compile
ton of his memoirs or to disclose their
contents or the names of the Senders.
A War Department attache, however,
said they came by radio, wire and mail
from every corner of the United States
and from numerous points abroad
Seated in his secluded but spacious
office in the old State, War and Navy
Building, Gen. Pershing examined the
accumulation of messages with boylike
interest and personally answered them
with his thanks.
The Pershing story Of the world con-
f1ict Is being awaited eagerly IN FRENCH
British and German circles, where con-
lecture is spirited as to the American
generals treatment of disputed phases
of allied strategy.
Gen. Pershing's version of his sue
cessful effort to maintain an autonomous
American front on the battlefield in the
face of opposition in the allied high
command is expected to prove OF par
ticular interest abroad.
Apparently official Europe is reserving
its comment until the story has been
made public. A large number of Amer
leans living across the Atlantic have
sent Gen. Pershing cables or letters tell
ing of the interest abroad in the Amer
lean account of the war"
The Pershing articles are generally re-
garded as tantamount to an official
record, in view not alone of their
authorship, but also of the fact that
they are based on the generals day-to-
day diary of his wartime activities.
He speaks plainly in them, but, as he
is convinced that he has spoken moth
ing but the truth, he entertains no
misgivings. The story will start in The
Star January IL.

House Appropriation Committee told
his colleagues in the House today.
He figures that the appropriation bill
with the three-year program for bring
ing under average salaries up to the
average, he intimated, will still carry
between $7,500,000 and 100000 for
salary increases.
Chairman Wood was DESTROYS at this
Christmas season to have the Govern
ment employees know the truth as he
sees it about the question of salary in
creases and hopes that when this Is
understood they will not look upon him
as a hard-hearted ogre.
"A great many members are receiving
kilograms urging them to support SEN
ate amendments to the Treasury and
Post Office appropriation bill, which
have been placed upon the bill in the
Senate to provide further salary in
creases amounting in all to approx
mately $1,2Oo,OoO," Mr.. Wood said.
What Bill Included.
"In order that members may under
stand just what the bill as it passed
the House contained for such increases
/ desire to say that in framing the
House bill these amounts are approx
mately available to cover increases:
Amount on account of the act of July
3, 1880 (Brookhart act. S1,437 ,480.
Amount under the Treasury Depart
ment in normal appropriation, which
will be available from lapses, etc, for
salary increases. $811 900.
Amount under the Post Office De-
partment in Washington normally used
for making increases from lapses, ETC.,
$25 900.
This makes the amount in the bill
as it passed the House for salary in
creases S2,273, 40.
ITO this amount the Senate has
added for the salary increases proposed
under the three-year program as rec
commended in the budget for next year
Sl,20O,0 600. This makes the amount Of
the bill as it passed the Senate avail
able for salary increases $3,473, 480.
Part of Three Year Program.
"The amount of 81 100000 inserted by
the Senate for these salary increases Is
part Of the S4.250,000 proposed by the
budget as the first years increment of
three-year program to cost $14,500,-
900 year for salary increases. These
amounts the House has denied.
All the appropriation bills will con-
tain approximately 100000 for carry
ing out the Brookhart act of July g.
to this amount the bills carried the reg
ular funds under which promotion and
increases may be made from lapses, etc,
which l estimate to be at least $780,
900 to S4000,000.
THE appropriation bills, therefore, ir-
respective of this three years program,
will carry between $7,500,000 and So
100000 for salary increases. If the
Senate amendments should prevail 1t
would run the amount for salary in
creases up to nearly $12,00o,00 for this
session at time when the Government
is pressed for money, when people are
out of employment, when some are
working only a few days week. We
would be further favoring those on the
Government pay roll who have steady
employment, regular pay and none of
the suffering and anxiety that now dis
turbs SO many who are trying to get
work.

TABLET is ERECTED
TO SURVEY PIONEER
Bronze Plate in Star Building
Honors Ferdinand V. Hayden,
First U. s. Geologist.

A bronze tablet memorializing the
pioneering efforts of the United States
Geological Survey under the late Ferdi-
nand v. Hayden, first United States
geologist in charge, was erected yester-
day afternoon on the east wall of the
business Office of The Evening Star on
the first floor of The Star Building.
The tablet was dedicated December
10 in the rooms of the Washington
Board of Trade on the second floor of
The Star Building, which occupy space
corresponding to that in the old Star
Building in which the first Offices of the
survey were located.
The accomplishments of the Hayden
Survey. which came to play a large
part in the scientific progress of the
Nation, are recited on the tablet, which
was erected by the surviving members
of the Hayden Surveyor. William H.

now passed and recommends an appro-
priation--for the full amount, the $685.
600, 600 urged by the Budget Bureau and
Secretary Hyde, or any figure in be-
tween-which Congress can pass with
out rousing serious disagreementS, this
may be done by nightfall. Otherwise
it must await the legislators return
from holiday.
However, the Agriculture Depart
ment advised the House Appropriations
Committee it would not be necessary
to appropriate any of the $45,000 900
for drought relief before the Christmas
holidays.
Chairman Wood Of the committee
said today he had been informed that
if the funds are supplied Immediately
after the holidays they would be avail
able soon enough, because of the pre-
liminary work that has to be done be-
fore the money can be dispensed
through loans to farmers.
Woods committee will hold hearings
during the holidays to ascertain how
the money is TO be used.
Task Is Formidable.
The entire task was huge. There
was plenty of Senate opposition to re-
ceding on the three points still at issue
in the public works bill. Should it pre-
vail more conference sessions with
House delegates would be necessary.
The Farm Board bill was held up yes
terday by Senator Borah, Republican,
Idaho. who wished to ascertain what
was going TO be done with the money.
Each of the three remaining nominees
to the Power Commission faced opposl-
ton. Chairman CouZens OF the Inter-
state Commerce Committee planned to
bring up first the name of the chair
man, George Otis Smith Of Maine. If
the coast seemed clear he had in mind
seeking action also on Marcel Garsaud
of Louisiana and Frank r. McNinch of
North Carolina. With Claude l.. Draper
of Wyoming and Ralph B. Williamson
Of Washington State, who were APP
proved yesterday, Smith could imme-
diately organize the power group.
