BLEASE' s FIGHT
ON COBB FAILS
Photo by International

Despite a last-minute oratoricAl
blast, by Senator Cole l.. Blease
of South Carolina. the nomina
ton of Judge James A. Cobb for
reappointment to the Municipal
Court bench was confirmed today
by the Senate.
The nomination had been held
up from last night while Blease
talked loud and long on a series
of nominations affecting his State
and on the alleged sale Of Re
publican patronage in South Caro-
lima.
Although he delivered a fiery
denunciation of having colored
men on the bench and on colored
juries trying white persons, Blease
remained silent when the r1omina-
ton of Cobb was put to a vote.
Blease declared in opening his
remarks on Cobb that he wanted
to call the matter to the attention
of his southern colleagues and
that after he had done so they
could vote any way they wished.
He asserted th..t he personally re-
fused to vote to confirm any
colored man for any office.
Judge Cobb'S term expired last
night at midnight. and efforts to
have his nomination confirmed
before the expiration of his tenure
failed when Blease started a fill
buster during last nights session
The nomination went through
however, in the first few minutes
of today's meeting.

BOOK FIGHT
ARO(JSES
SENATE

Turning aside from economic
problems after six months of de-
bate on the tariff. the Senate
today INDUCED in a wordy battle
over Federal censorship of Inn
ported literature.
Led by the deeply religious
Senator Reed Smott (RO of
Utah, one faction sought to re,
tain existing censorship over all
foreign books, vesting in the Sec.
retary of the Treasury full au,
thority to bar or admit them.
Smoot defended the law on the
ground that hundreds of obscene
books, certain to corrupt the
morals of Young America, would
be admitted if the censorship
were lifted.
Cutting Leads Opposition
Another equally determined
group, led by, Senator Bronson
Cutting (R) OF New Mexico. was
defending the Senate's action of
last January in removing all
C0C16 6A SCAICOL cI1Lp ONCI pOOhSs
Cutting declared there were suf.
ficient State laws to protect the
public against obscene lierature
and protested vigorously against
giving uninformed clerks in the
Treasury Department power to
bar the classics of Europe.
A third faction. led by the
scholarly Senator Thomas j..
Walsh CD of Montana, sought
q "middle-of the-road" comprom-
ise. Walsh proposed vesting cen,
sorship powers in the Federal
courts. with a Jury rendering the
verdict. Under his plan, Gus.
toms inspectors could seize al
legedly obscene literature but a
court and jury would pass judg
ment on the seized book. II
found obscene, the importer
would be subject to $4,000 fine
and five years imprisonment.
The debate at times grew as
warm as the books described by
Smoot. The Utah Senator waxed
angry over the opposition to cen
sorship. He cited two books,
seized by censors. as indicating
the type that would inundate the
country if censorship were lifted.
Cites Questionable Volumes
A small library of the banned
books was brought into the Sen
ate by Smoot. On the list he
denounced were "RabelaiS; "
George Moore's STORY Teller's
Holiday "Kama Sutra: :'"Scented
Gardens" "Perfumed Garden;
Balzac's NDroll Tales" Casanova's S
Memoirs, and March's "The Wild

he added D. H. Lawrence's Lady

ris' my Life and Loves"
"These books will be admitted

President Hoover's decision to
maintain an aloof attitude TO-
ward all Republican primary
battles is being subjected to a
severe test.
The hectic Senatorial fight in
Pennsylvania. now getting under
way. has moved in and taken
seat at his Cabinet table-to Mr..
Hoover's considerable embarraSs-
ment. There does not appear
much he can do about 1t. how
ever. so long as Secretary Of
Labor Davis chooses to remain in
the Cabinet. and so long as Sec
retary of the Treasury Mellon
chooses to back Senator Joseph
R. Grundy.
Cites Hoover Example
Hints have been conveyed To
Secretary Davis that now that he
has formally announced his
Senatorial candidacy he should
relieve the Administration of any
embarrassment by retiring from
the Cabinet. But Secretary DAVIS
has replied that he has no inten
ton of relinquiShing the portfolio
he has held under three Presi-
dents. And he has also said that
he has a distinguished precedent
for staying in.
Mr. Hoover did not resign as
Secretary of Commerce while
conducting a primary campaign
for the presidential nomination.
On the contrary. he conducted
that fight from the vantage point
of a Cabinet berth. Davis intends
to do likewise.
The situation is not without its
humorous angle, and Capitol
politicians are getting many
chuckles out of it. When the
Cabinet met today. for instance,

and had to be excused temporarily
from the witness stand today dur
ing his trial on charges Of brib-
ing Albert B. Fall.
Under questioning about his
son, Ned. who was killed in Feb
ruary a year ago. his voice broke
and tears flooded his eyes. The
court excused him until he re-
covered.
Stirred BY Hogan

counsel. was questioning the Wit
ness about a conversation he said
he had with Admiral j. K. Rob-
ison, in charge of petroleum
matters for the Navy. concerning

The attorney asked Doheny If
Robson mentioned his son. Do
heny attempted TO answer, but
was unable to do so.
Testimony Of the .Eaagnate to-
day was a continuation of the
narrative begun yesterday when
Doheny was first placed on the
stand. He denied he talked to
Fall regarding preferential rights
to leases in the Government oil
reserves, which his Pan-Amerlsan
Petroleum Company subsequently
secured under clause in the
Pearl Harbor contract for storage
Of oil which was let to the con,
Germ in April, 1922.
Doheny's testimony was given
over to a detailed recital of his
contracts with Government of.

Pearl Harbor contract. He said
he had nothing to do with the
letting of the contract, and that
1t was negotiated by the Interior
and Navy departments and Blu,

Conferred With Robson
Doheny said he and Admiral
Robson had a conference prior
to the letting of the contract,
but that it did not concern
preferential rights to oil leases.
Admiral Robson wasn't con.

said the oil man. He was inter.

the Pacific Coast. He felt that

CAPT. IRVING THINKS
 WELL OF MILLER OR.

Capt John Irving, who arrived in Juneau on the Alaska and sailed south this morning on the Prin- cess Louise, believes very strongly that the properties he went to Val dez to see, are worth further pros pecting and developing They are located eight miles from the mouth of Miller Greek, and the main property is the Little Giant on which considerable development work has been done. The showing was promising.
 Capt. Irving said that engineers will come north in week or so to examine the Little Giant and other properties, and future activities will depend in large measure on their report.
 Capt. Irving expects to come to Alaska again in about month. He may spend sometime at Juneau on that trip, but will certainly be on the Miller Creek properties for a while.

7 EMoNADE! 1t might almost be
- called one of the great American
favorites. For we certainly do like
lemonade We drink 1t by the quart
in Summer weather, and less album
dainty in Winter.
There are many good ways of max
ing it. Here are some of them:
Squeeze the lemon Juice into q cup.
strain it into a pitcher and add sugar
To taste. It is difficult to tell how
much, but start out with three level
teaspoons for each good-sized lemon.
Mix the juice and the sugar together
and let stand for five minutes. Then
add water--two glasses to each lemon,
II the lemons are .good~sized. That
makes plain lemonade of the simplest
sort.
For Variety.
For variety in lemonade add other
fruit Juices. Orange Juice, grape juice,
juice from pommegranites, peach juice,
any berry juice-Ynade by pressing the
berries in a wire sieve, but not rubbing
through the pulp.
1t is necessary to use your taste in
blending these fruit juices. However,
If YOU put the Juice of six lemons on
sugar, then add the juice of three
medium sized oranges and one cup OF
grape Juice, with two quarts of water,
you will have delicious drink.
You can add more sugar after the
whole thing is mixed But If you let
the sugar and acid juice of the orange
stand together for five or ten minutes
first, the sugar will dissolve mode read
lily. I think it is q very good plan to
pass sugar when you serve lemonade.
Some persons like it very sweet, finding
the acid lemon juice unpleasant unless
it is well sweetened.
Another way TO start out making
lemonade is to boil lemon skins in q
little water for 10 minutes, after the
strain this liquid over the lemon Juice
and sugar before it has cooled at all.

1t used to be considered incorrect"
to serve straws with lemonade. But
nowadays there is much less prejudice
against them than there was. So If
you like them use them. There are
glass lemonade spoons with hollow

of suckers or straws, If you want to
use them. The straws are just as good
