mystery TUNNEL" NEAR
CAPITOL LIKELY SEWER
Lynn Says Imagination Used in
Representing Excavation as
Civil War Vestige.

David Lynn, architect of the Capitol,
who with officials of the District Water
Department has been having a search
made to determine the origin of a
mystery tunnel" along B street north
Of the Capitol between Delaware ave-
nue. and North Capitol street, said to-
day that "it was probably an old sewer"
and that some one has drawn heavily
on his imagination in representing it
as having been tunnel made by soldiers
during the Civil War. Thus far the
District records have not disclosed the
existence of any such tunnel in the
sewer system 1t was evidently not
connected with any Government build
ing.
This small tunnel was discovered by
workmen during excavations in connec-
ton with the development of the Capt.
tol Plaza and extension of the Capitol
grounds.

AVOID SUNBURN

An ounce OF prevention Is worth
everything when II comes to real
sunburn. Tan is excellent Both
from the point OF view of health
and of fashion. But sunburn that
really burns is injurious.
The thing TO do II TO expose
the skin gradually to the full
force or the sun. A few minutes a

will be so nicely tanned. without

VIENNA 'PUTSCH
FALLS FLAT

+ VIENNA, Sept. IA G.N.S0.
The stock exchange opened with
a firm tone today, some stocks
gaining 2 per cent in the first
few hours of trading. Other
business continued its usual tenor,
indicating how little the abortive
"putsch" attempted by the Helm
wehr had affected the country.
Except for the spasmodic ar
rival of groups Of prisoners from
the country districts, all charged
with treason, the attempted over
throw of the government had
caused less than a ripple in the
normal life of the Austrian peo'
pie.
Among the prisoners lodged in
the Jail It Linz today was Prince
Won Starhemberg, former cabinet
minister and leader of Austrian
Fascism. He was charged with
high treason for having attempted
to induce Austrian army leaders
to join the "putsch."
In the meantime. Chancellor
Buresch had departed for. Geneva,
where he will direct negotiations
with the League of Nations for
an Austrian credit.

FOR HOOVER
Frazier, BrOOkhart Return

With Dire Warning to COP.
By GEORGE r. HOLMES
CCopyright, 1881, by International
News SerVice)

A political revolt Of far-reach-
ing proportions Is fomenting out
where the West begins, and If
the Republican party proceeds
with the denomination Of PreSi-
dent Hoover next year, it is going
to find the going extremely
rough, insurgents say.
The warning was sounded in
Washington today by Senator
Frazier of North Dakota and
Senator Brookhart of Iowa, who
have just returned to- the Capt.
tai after several months with
home folks"
Hard Winter Seen
With millions facing the
spectre of a hard winter, with
wheat selling at 80 cents a
bushel and other farm commodi-
ties at the lowest ebb in many
years, the times, they asserted,
call for new leadership.
And the party that supplies it,
they intimated, is the party that
Is going to be successful between
the Alleghenies and the Rockies
in the next campaign.
Senator Frazier said:
There is certainly going to
be an ample vote Of protest
against the Republican party
next year If conditions con.
tinue as they are.
Naturally the farmers Of
the Northwest are blaming the
Administration for conditions.
Naturally the President has
lost popularity
There was a gigantic pro-
test vote last year, when more
new senator's and representa-
tives were elected than ever
before, and it will be even
larger next year because con-
ditiOnS undeniabIy are worse"
How About Coolidge?
Asked the direct question
whether "any Republican can
carry the West next year." Sena.
tor Frazier replied:
"Out in the Middle West and
Northwest, the nomination of a
real Progressive would make a
difference in the result next
year."
He expressed the opinion Gov
ernor Pinchot would be a popu-
lar candidate. 80,
"How about Calvin CoOlidge?"
"WelI, I have never con-
Sidered Coolidge much of a
Progressive, although I always
had a great deal of respect for
him. Conditions, however, were
better under his administration
and he would command more
support than Hoover"
Senator Brookhart said he had
travelled extensively in the West
since the adjournment of Con-
gress, visiting Michigan, Illinois.
Iowa, the Dakotas, and other
States.
