TELEGRAM RoUsEs BLAINE.

BY the Associated Press.
Another attack on the independent
oil producers was made In the Senate
today by Senator Blaine, Republican,
Wisconsin, after he had read q tele-
gram from the Republican national
committee woman from Wisconsin, say
ing she had been informed Of q move
ment in Oklahoma to boycott Wiscon-
sin products" because Of Blaine's op-
position to an oil tariff.
The telegram forwarded to Blaine by
Mrs. H. E. Thomas, Republican commit
teewoman from Wisconsin, quoted an
other telegram she had received from r.
d. Pine of Okmulgee, Okla, whom
Blaine said he understood to be the
brother and business partner" of Sena-
tor Pine, Republican, Oklahoma. The
Pine message, as quoted by Blaine.
reads:
Appears to be spontaneous boycott
against Wisconsin products starting IN
Midcontinental oil fields because Of
Senator Blaine's attack on our oil or
ganization. Boycott seems to be grow
ing, although apparently sponsored 3y
no organization. Wire us any inform9-
ton you may have that will stop this
boycott"
Blaine asserted he was convinced the
telegram did not tell the truth" and
Ilc 0IQ HOt oSlAcNC tAidt PCOP1C Va OAAo
homa would sanction boycott of prod
ucts of any State because of the vote
or actions Of representatives from
those States"
He added, however, that IF Senator
Pines brother told the truth, it is very
evident that these same oil interests
were attempting by way of boycott
against the products Of my State to
influence the vote upon this PROPOSE
ton of the representatives of my State
in the Senate"

100000 gallons of the special de-
natured alcohol"
While the old Rum Row" on the
Atlantic Coast has been broken up,
Wickersham said, there were still a
number Of fast ships operated from st.
coast, equipped with tanks with a de-
lievry hose.
"They make a connection" he re-
ported, probably by radio, with some
point on the coast, run in and dis
charge their cargoeS into tank wagons
in a very brief space of time and are
OF. A great deal is brought in that
way. How much, nobody knows"
/. Senator Walsh inquired If any of
these ships were ever caught, and
Wickersham asserted that quite num-
Illicit distilling and diversion of in
dustrial alcohol were the other sources
Of liquor supply, he said.
ImportatiOns Increase.
Referring to importations of liquor
Wickersham said the expectation OF
liquor from Canada and from st. Pierre
the West Indies and Bermuda in
creased last year by 100000 imperial
gallons over 1926, aggregating 1885
gallons for the year ending March, 1929
I'm all probability" he added, that
increase largely came into the United
States through some of the ports along
the Atlantic Coast or the Gulf"
Wickersham testified the commission
had not found the prohibition service
handicapped in any way by the Secur-
ing of inef1cient or dishonest officials
who secure these appointments by vir-
tue of political influence"
On the contrary. he said he had in
terviewed many of the prohibition ad-
ministrators, and only one of them
would he question.
Many of them met, and they have
impressed me as very straightforward,
honorable, upright, vigorous, fine OIL
Gals" he continued. II can think of
one or two pre-eminently, and / have
wondered that you could get such men
for the salary. Even the best of the
salaries now are not large.
Complain Of Social Ostracism.
\ "And, as one man said to me-said
not only to me, but to the committee
listening TO him-he spoke of the social
oStraciSm to which he and his wife were
subjected III the two or three years that
he had been in that position. He said
they were not invited to anything. The
people in the neighborhood, people who
went to the country clubs and so forth,
where he and mis- wife normally would
have gone, just oStraciZed them because
he was known to be trying to carry out
the duty OF his position. Now, you have
got to consider all that"

Swortzel, Crotts and Elgin to "shake
them down." Among the other wit
nesses will be Hugh G. Hummel OF
Plainfield, NJ j., who was in Miss Fos-
ter's apartment at the time Burke and
Gravely and Inspector ThaddeuS r
Bean, who has been in charge of the
police investigation of the case.
Charles Murray, assistant district at
torney, told reporters today that he had
nolle pressed q charge of conducting a
disorderly house placed against Miss
Foster in November, 1929, after he had
been assured Miss Foster had left town.
He declined to say who had given him
the assurance, explaining he had no
desire to enter into any newspaper con-
troversy. He added he ordered the ar
rest of Miss Foster last week on the
same charge as soon as he learned she
had returned to the city.
Policemen Accuse Burke.
Burke had been named in statements
made to Inspector Bean by Herbert @.
Wanamaker and A. D. Mansfield, first
precinct policemen. as having prevailed
on Murray to nolle PROSE- the charge
against Miss Foster by telling the as
sistant district attorney the young
woman had left the city and he wanted
to have the case dropped because he
had arranged her bond. Wanamaker
and Mansfield declared in their state
mentS that Miss Foster had told them
she was near the Police Court when
Burke interceded in her behalf and had
not left the city.
Burke denied Miss Foster was in
Washington when he vent to see Murray
in her behalf. He commended it was not
unusual for policeman to be tnstru-
mental in having cases nolle pressed
when the defendants had left the juris-
diction.
Maj. Henry G. Pratt, superintendent
Of police, announced that a man said
to have been with Miss Foster the night
Crotts was shot had been located by
detectives and would be questioned.

concealed but executed with brave eff
frontry that Is without parallel in the
annals of the Senate.
Senator La Toilette said he was aware
that some Senators would support the
bill on the theory that the inclusion of
the debenture clause, the Norris amend
ment aiming at monopolieS and the
amendment doing away with the fix
IDLE provisions of the existing tariff law
were constructive. He himself, he said.
would vote against the bill, believing
that 1t was indefensible.
1T is now clear that the bill has
sown seeds of international Ill will"
continued Senator La Toilette, which
the United States Is already reaping in
the form of retaliatory measures. This
bill as it stands today, will believe, do
more to create sectional Ill feeling than
any measure that has been before the
Senate within the memory of its Oldest
member.
TBy placing excessive duties upon
building materials it strikes q blow at
the program of public and private con-
struction to take up the slack and re-
lieve the widespread unemployment
resulting from the existing industrial
depression.
"The Grundy tariff bin is an absolute
violation of the Presidents message
urging limited revision OF the tariff
for the relief of agriculture and for the
protection of those industries In which
there has been, to quote the Presidents
exact language. a substantial Slacken-
ing of activity and consequent de-
crease of employment due to tnsur-
mountable competition In the products
of that industry"
Blames Party Leaders.
Senator La Toilette said that a coali-
ton of Progressive Republicans and
Democrats had worked for months to
prevent an upward revision of the tariff.
The leaders of the Presidents own
party are responsible for this upward
revision" said Senator La Toilette
This is the result which they sought
from the beginning, and which they
achieved in the end, with the assistance
of few tariff hungry members Of the
opposition's party, who exalted sec
tional interests above the common
good
Senator La Toilette said that he
would vote against the bill as it now
stands and when it comes back from
conference.
