Una prueba de la absolute
bondad de los candidates y de
los eiudadanos es la lista de gas
tos presentada a Mr.. Dicken-
son, ell secretario de la corte del
circuito.
Ninguno de los candidates q
senador ha gastado mas de 200
pesos; los senores candidates d
comisionado han gastado menos
de $500 cada uno. Los que mas
han gastado, los candidates a
secretario de la corte del circui
to, no han pasado de $3.50.
Todo este demuestra que los
candidates no invierten su di-
nero en- co'nprar votos y mucho
menos en- pagan ell impuesto cleo
toral; TODD este ''evidencia" que
los ciudadanos iran a los conf
clos sin pedir ayuda monetaria,
guiados por ell deseo de votar
por los candidates mas inteli-
gentes Y simpaticos.
Desinteresados, honestos, es-
crupulosos los candidates; desin
teresados. dignos y honestos los
ciudadanos.
lPor que proyectar 'sombras'
sobre la imponderable grandeza
de "a democracia?
5Por que empenarse en- vel

SENATORS DELAY
ACTION ON PARKER
Nomination Is Taken Under
Amusement After Labor's
Protest.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
After receiving the vigorous protest
Of organized labor against confirmation
of Judge John j. Parker of North Caro-
lima, as an associate justice Of the
Supreme Court Senate judiciary sub
committee yesterday took the nomina-
ton under Amusement with indications
pointing to another week before the
name gets before the Senate.
William Green, president Of the
American Federation of Labor, told the
Senators that a decision by Judge
Parker upholding an injunction re-
straining the United Mine Workers
from certain organization activities had
reduced coal miners in West Virginia
ito condition approximating industrial
servitude."
Committee members questioned Mr..
Green and other witnesses sharply
about the Parker decision.
Borah Takes Lead.
Senator Borah, Republican, of Idaho,
took the lead in an effort to determine
whether it was one written in conform
ity with the decision of the Supreme
Court in the yellow Dog Contract"
case.
There were various opinions, Senator
Borah withholding his pending further
examination into the case
D. c. Townsend, State tax commits
sioner for West Virginia, and an as
sociates counsel for the United Mine
Workers in the case, commended that
the jurist had followed the wake of
the precedentS."
Mr.. Green announced when Townsend
had concluded that he did not now
represent the United Mine Workers nor
the American Federation of Labor.
Townsend re1oined that he claimed
only to speak for himself as former
attorney in the case.
The Parker decision was one upholding
an injunction asked by the Red Jacket
Coal and Coke Co. to restrain the United
Mine Workers from perSuading nom
union employees who were under con-
tract not to join a union to enter the
labor organization.
Green Cites Results.
Green insisted the effect of the de-
cision, which the Supreme. Court re-
fused to review, has been to deny trade
union representatives the right to talk
to miners, land to peacefully persuade
them to join trade union"
I'VE can't go into the mines to help
these miners" shouted Mr.. Green,
pounding the table, mot because a
law stops us, but because court or
der prevents U.s."

YOUTHFUL BANDITS
ROB BAKERY OF 500
Three Women Are Held at Bay
by Pistol as Register Is
Rifed.

Two we'll dressed youths, the oldest
appearing still in his teens, robbed a
bakery store at 1927 Pennsylvania ave-
nue. southeast of 500 at pistol point
last night, and made their getaway in
an automobile.
Three young women, one customer
and the others employed at the place,
were in the store at the time. Miss
Rosie Kessler, 443 Second street south
east, the manager, was threatened with
death when she tried to block the way
of the young bandits to the cash
register.
She said that she and her two COM
panions were sitting in front of the
store talking when the robbers drove up
in an automobile. They entered, bought
soft drinks. and one asked for a glass
of water. AS Miss Kessler was getting
it for him, he drew a revolver and
warned the women to make no outcry,
AS his companion started for the
cash register Miss Kessler sought to
block his way, but was driven back by
the menacing revolver.
The bandits emptied the cash drawer.
backed through the door and drove
away in their car. One Of the women
noted the license number and turned
it over to the police.
Lieut.. Richard Mansfield, night COM
nander of the fifth precinct, took
charge of the investigation. The other
women in the store were Mrs. Betty
williams, a clerk, and Mrs. Anna Marie
Loughlin of the 700 block Of Thirteenth
street southeast.

PETER IS CLEARED
IN JOHNSON CASE
Young Man Who Hit Walter,
Jr., Acquitted of Drunk
Driving Charge.
By a STAFF Correspondent of The Star.

ROCKVILLE, Md, April 5.-After a
trial lasting more than six hours, dur
ing which some of the most prominent
people of the county gave testimony.
George Peter of this town late yester-
day was acquitted of charge OF driv-
ing while under the influence of intoxi-
eating liquor. growing out of striking
and injuring Walter johnson, jr., son
of the manager of the Washington
base ball team, on the old Georgetown
road last March Is. Peter still faces
a charge of reckless driving. According
to States Attorney Robert Peter, Jr.,
who prosecuted the case today. Peter
will not be tried on this charge until
young johnson, who now is in the
Georgetown University Hospital. is able
to appear.
Judge Charles w. Woodward. who
heard the testimony, commented on the
importance of the case. He said that
not in all his experience had he seen
a case In which there were as many
witnesses, including so many outStand-
ing people of the county, as the present
trial had presented.
Officers Testimony Decides.
However, he said that If there was
one phase of the criminal law which
had impressed itself on his mind, it was
that a defendant must be convicted be-
yond a reasonable doubt. In the long
list of witnesses, he said, there were
those who thought that Peter had been
drinking, some thought he was drunk
at the time, while others thought that
he was sober. There were those who
said they smelled liquor on his breath,
and some who said that he was bois-
ferrous. But Judge woodward con-
tinued, there was the uncontradicted
testimony of Officer Joseph Oldheld, on
whose evidence, he said, he had con-
victed people for driving while drunk
and who was familiar with such cases.
Oldfield testified that Peter, following
the accident drove his car, by the most
direct route to the physicians office, as
any sober man would, and that he saw
no evidence that the man was drunk.
Oficer Oldf1eld was called to the
stand three times. He was called by
the prosecution, then by the defense
and just before the pronouncement OF

CONTEST FOR NOMINATION
Present Illinois Legislator Battling
Desperately Against Woman
Candidate.
BY G. GOULD LINCOLN.

CHICAGO, April 5.-With his back to
the wall, Senator Charles S. Deneen
tonight is fighting off the combined
assaults of Mrs. Ruth Hanna Nc
Cormick and the anti-Deneen factions
among the Republicans in his race for
denomination, which closes with the pri-
mary Tuesday. He is winding up the
most strenuous campaign which perhaps
he has ever conducted. He expects to
win. He should win if organization
means as much as it usually does in
primary elections. But Mrs. Nc
Cormick, who wishes to be the first
elected woman Senator, is confident Of
victory, too. It's a horse race, with
the odds probably favoring Deneen.
Three other candidates for the Re-
publican nomination for Senator are
in the contest, though little Is heard
about them with the exception OF New
ton Jenkins, a lawyer, who Is running
as a Progressive Republican. He served
with the Marines overseas In france
during the World War. In 1924 he was
a candidate for the senatorial nomlna-
ton against Senator Deneen ana Ine
late Senator Medill Mccormick ano
surprised every one by rolling UP total
of $4,000 votes. His supporters are
Claiming this year that his vote Will run
as high as 100000, and add that the race
is really between him and Mrs. NC
Cormick, which is another way OF pre-
dieting that Mrs. Mccormick Will oeleat
Senator Deneen.

For several years he has been test
