he would be listed on the modi-

COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 80
uNS.)-A hair-trigger tenSity
prevailed today at Ohio State
Penitentiary as National Guards
men, clad in tin hats and armed
with machine guns, rifles and
Sawed-off shot guns took over con
troll of the interior of the prison.
The antiquated and over
crowded penitentiary. built cen
tury ago, was an armed camp.
Doughboys in khaki, rifles over
their shoulders. tramped back
and forth within the enclosure
prepared to shoot to kill If the
unruly convicts make a hostile
move.
Troops Camp Inside
Machine guns were mounted In
the prison yard and trained on
the various cell blocks. Nearly
200 troops, with fun equipment.
were on duty inside the prison.
Twenty four tents had been
hastily put up and eight soldiers
occupied each tent.
OuboAdC OlIC 1P
proximately 800 troops were
patrolling the streets. Three ad-
ditional companies of National
Guardsmen and a howitZer pla-
toon had arrived during the
night.
The atmosphere about the old
prison was surcharged with ex-
pectancy. The general belief was
that anything might happen. The
1890 convicts awaited with fatal
istic calm and a certain amount
of resentment the next move Of
the militia. Two of their mum.
ber had been shot in yesterdays

HOOVER VAN rs
QUICK ACTION
ON TREATY
Senate viii Probably Seek
Advice of / Admira!s; Vote
Is Sought This Session
By GEORGE r. HOLMES

President Hoover viii submit
the London naval treaty to the
Senate without delay. He wants
it ratified at this session, even II
it involves the Senate staying on
the job beyond June l, the
scheduled adjournment date.
The treaty is in for close
scrutiny by two, possibly three,
committees Of Congress. The
Senate Committee on Foreign
Affairs. Of which Senator Borah
(R.) OF Idaho is chairman; the
Senate Naval Committee, Of which
Senator Hale CR.) Of Maine is
chairman. and the Naval Commit
tee of the House, headed by Rep
resentative Britten (R) Of Illi-
nois, all plan to take . hand IN
its analysis.
Guided BY AdmiraIs
The extent Of opposition to the
treaty cannot be engaged with
any degree Of accuracy until these
committees get down to work on
it. In the end, the amount OF
opposition probably win depend
upon the amount Of opposition
exhibited by naval eXpsrts who
win be called for testimony. The
Senate viii be guided largely by
the admiralS, it appeared today.
The Senate. generally speaking,
Is not enthusiastic about the
document which Secretary OF
State Stimson brought home from
London. Neither is 1t radically
hostile. The friends of disarma
ment are disappointed that nc
greater reduction of navies was
achieved; the So-called "big navy
group are disappointed because Of
the sacrifice Of the heavy cruiser
program in favor Of the lighter
cruisers. And between these two
groups stands a large part of the
Senate that is apathetic to the
whole business.
Waits Parker Fight
Consideration of the treaty
will not be begun until the fight
over the confirmation Of Judge
John j. Parker is out of the way
Senator Borah is one of the
leaders in that fight. This battle
may go on for . week.
In any event the outlook ap
pears favorable for the PreS1
dents plan Of diSpoSing Of thC
treaty before adjournment. Un
less the hearings develop
opposition than now seems prob
able, it is likely that the presi

the fitness OF Judge John j
Parker for service on the Supreme
Court. Administration leaders to

strict ideas concerning the that be made of
vessel that once felt the tread of High Executive
feet There must be nothing commercial about this
transaction nothing that s except for the hundred
thousand smackers from the purchaser. The buyer
cannot make an excursion boat out of the Mayfower
He cannot in fact call it the "Mayflower for
fear that the name will entice dollars into his coffers
Of course, if somebody cares to pay the amount

rather proud of the old boat. Used to be the May

How much of Gen. Tom Thumbs ro-
nance with Lavinia Warren was Spon-
taneous, and how much of 1t was due
to the practical genius of p T. Barnum
who saw in the union of the dwarfs
the prospect of untold numbers of dol
lars flowing into the strong boxes Of
them all?
We do not know, because all that has
been written of the story has given it
only the rosiest colors. But there was
an aside of tragedy which awakens pity
for another of Barnum's proteges and
moneymakers, the tiny Commodore
Mutt, exhibition rival of Gen. Thumb
and almost as famous.
The commodore also had felt STIR
ring of affection for Miss Warren. He
was jealous of any attentions that Gen.
Thumb paid her, and whenever that in
dividual approached Lavinia, he strut
ted around like a protective bantam
rooster.
The general proceeded about his WOO
ing with careful secrecy. He feared the
commodore. Once during a friendly
scuffle in their dressing room, the 1.-the
and active commodore had put him on
his back easily. Moreover, the commo-
dore was hot tempered and liked to
boast of his prowess with pistols and
bowie knives.
The general found time to pay La
vinia attentions when Mutt wasn't
looking, particularly on visits to Bar
NUNS Bridgeport home. One Saturday
night he persuaded her to accept him.
