 FFObably no other n1an-unless it be J. P. Morgan-has attained financial eminence with the world knowing so little about him.

 Never does he hurry. His face displays no emotional reaction to the most sensational market de- velopment.

the whole picture will change some
what. Candidates will have to show
their colorS in the score Of States which
hold these presidential primaries. If
one of the Democratic candidates goes
into a considerable number of these
States and demonstrates his yote-get-
ting ability, he is going to be hard to
stop in the National Convention itself.
During the Democratic national con-
Vention in 1924, one Of the most elo-
quent and dramatic speeches made in
that gathering was delivered by Baker
in support Of a pro-League of Nations
plank for the platform.
Mr.. Baker does not change quickly
in matters OF principle, despite the
fact that 1t has been whispered he had
in mind the issuance Of statement to
| the effect that, while he had been an
ardent supporter OF the League and
American adherence, the time had
| passed for this country TO go into it
as asmember. His speech in Win
| chester however, is much more in
character with Mr. Baker
During his speech in the 1924 con-
vention, Baker said: There is no sub
| lect on this earth, apart from my rela-
tions TO my God and my duty to my
| family, which compares even remotely
| IN importance 10 me Win the League
Of Nations"
Baker also was one Of those who
came forward strongly for q cancella-
ton of the debts owed this country
growing out OF the World War.
At the 1924 Democratic National
| Convention owen D. Youngs opinion
Of the League Of Nations was quoted
! during the debate, as follows:
Il am so much believer in the
League and so strongly convinced that
| it is essential to the welfare of this
country and the world. that I should
be unwilling TO put this great instru-
mentality, embodying the high purposes
OF Mr.. Wilson, to any test less than a
non-partisan referendum Of the Ameri-
cap people"
Mr.. 9oung's letter containing this
statement was used as an argument
for the majority report Of the Reso
luton Committee on the League, pro-
posing such q referendum without un-
dertaking TO commit the Democratic
party in @ASsance to support OF the
League.

Two Chinese troop trains from Chin

to press on, the Chinese military
authorities at Chinchow, as well as
Marshal Chang Hsueh-Liang at Peip-

Southwestern Manchuria.
For this reason, the dispatches said,
they are hurrying the withdrawal Of

Leader
BY the Associated Press.

MOUNT STERLING, KY, December
30.-A jury of IL farmers and a barber
was chosen here today to try William
H. Hightower, Harlan County labor
leader charged with murder, conspiracy
and aiding and abetting in the clash at
Eyarts last May that cost four lives.
With the jury completed, the Com
monWealth today mobilized the wit
nesses and evidence it hopes will con-
Wet the second man to face trial as a
result of the battle of Evarts.
Only three jurors were needed to
NIL the box when Montgomery Cir
cult Court opened this morning. Upon
request of counsel for both sides, Judge

County jury early this month convicted
w. B. Jones, another union leader, and

local of the United Mine Workers of
America.
The Evarts shootings were widely

SHEPPARD QUITS
BEER BILL HEARING
Joins Ashurst in Declining to
Serve as Subcommittee Is
Called for January s.

Another Democratic prohtbitionlSt
Senator-Sheppard Of Texas co-author
| of the prohibition amendment-Wlth-
drew today from the Senate Manutac-
lures Subcommittee appointed to hold
hearings on anti-prohibition measures.
His action came shortly after Chair.
man Metcalf of the subcommittee had
set the first of the hearings for Friday,
January 8. At that time, Metcalf no
tilted his Office from Providence, r. l,
| the group will hear testimony on
per cent beer bill introduced by Sena-
tor Bingham, Republican, of Connecti-
cut
Sheppard Lacks Time.
Senator Shepherd said his reason for
| withdrawing was lack of time. He
added, however, he agreed fully with
the statement made yesterday by Sen
ator Ashurst, Democrat, Arizona, In
declining to serve which was that at
tempts to modify the prohibition laws
are a waste Of effort.
They can't get anywhere" said
Sheppard
Both friends and foes Of prohibition
will be heard at the hearings begin
ming next week.
Senator Bingham said Prof. Yandell
Henderson Of Yale University an ex-
pert on volative poisons, had agreed to
appear in favor of the bill on the
morning of January 8. Representative
William E Hull of Peoria, Ill, also In
favor of the bill, will appear the ne1.
day.
Care will be taken to allot equal
amounts Of time to both sides. Com
mittee officials are looking for an extra
spacious chamber in which to hold the
hearings, expecting large attendance.
Senator Bingham announced he
would introduce Monday bill to per-
nit beer of 80 per cent by weight OF
alcoholic content, which, he said, is
virtually the same as the per cent by
volume provided in the bill before the
subcommittee. 1t differs in that the
new measure provides that the beer
must be manufactured entirely from
the proouctS of American farms.
This is intended, Bingham said, to
give the full benefit of the manufac-
ture to the American farmer" 1t Is
so framed as to prevent importation
of foreign beer, ale or porter, as well
as ingredients.
The Connecticut Senator added he
is working on measure to provide for
distribution direct from warehouses to
homes to meet the possible objection
that passage of beer bill would mean
return of the saloon.
One vote on prohibition is all that
seems likely in the House this session,
with wet forces having their choice on
a referendum proposal or light wines
and beer ballot.
That is the way Representative
Rainey of Illinois, the Democratic lead
er, sees 1t.
In his opinion, the House Judiciary
Committee will not report favorably
either on measure calling for a refer
endum on the eighteenth amendment
or one for modification Of the Volstead
act.
The vets will have to bring the bill
to the floor through the petition Of
l45 members" he said. That is the
only way in which they can do 1t. They
will have but one vote, and that either
on referendum or light wines and
beer. They can't have both. The rules
Of the House will be so interpreted"
He said he felt the referendum had
the better chance for getting by be-
cause many drys, himself included,
would vote for it.
