SHERIFF ISSUES ORDERS OF DEATH
 IN MINE STRIKE
''ShOOt to Kill" Are His Words to Deputies in the RiotOus Scenes in Ken- lucky Mines

Harlan. ky. April 29.-(UP).- A southwestern Kentucky mountaineer sheriff--John Tenry Blainlair-who speaks with the precision and ready rapidity of the machine gun he keeps handy for emergencies, was in mili- tant control here to-day of a spec tacular labor dispute in the Big Black Mountain coal mines.
 A determined drive to organize open shop mines here under the banner of the United Mine Work CTS of America Is in progress. Man agement of the mines has refused the suggestion of "closed shop" con- tract, and considerable ill-will has been engendered among the union element involved.
 A nond descript force of undeter- mined size, armed and deployed on q mountain top yesterday, opened fire into the ranks of some 200 miners on their way up the noun tain to work. A one hours battle en- sued. during which 2:000 pounds of ammunition were exchanged without known casualty.
 Hell, yes. I've issued orders to shoot to kill" Blainlair announced after the attackers had been routed. "The laws of this state give any man the right to protect himself, and when ambushers open fire on my men, they II SnOOI ana snOOL to kill. That's what we use guns for here"
 Blainlair spurned the suggestion he seek state aid.
 Meanwhile, officials of the mine companies moved through their legal counsel at Richmond, Ky, to-day to obtain temporary restraining fn- functions in federal court against 96 alleged members of the union. An attempt will be made to prevent "agitators" from trespassing on com pany property or inciting strike"
 Ambushing of the miners brought to a climax q week of sporadic dis orders which included alleged mur- der. footing of commissaries, dyna- and whipping of mine workers allegedly to force them into line"
 Jess Pace, 55-year-old deputy sheriff. was slain in a street fight with Bill Burnett last week. Burnett, was wounded, is held on a charge of murder.
 On three occasions, commissaries visions of more than $1,500 in value.
 wen handle this thing our selves" sheriff said after quiet had settled over his aroused bailiwick. No arrests have been made, he said, and little was known of the mob which which ambushed the miners. He said he believed most of them were T. W. W.'s and rowdies."
 The attacking withdrew without leaving definite trace of their iden- tity. One cap was found by mine guards searching on the mountain top. and several exploded shells. They were turned over to the sher- if as evidence.
 "We have reason to believe one of them was shot, possibly killed, but they are keeping pretty secret about it. We've issued plenty of ammuni- tinn to our men, and wee ready for 'em if they try that trick again." Sheriff Blainlair said.

there perhaps will be a livelier fight
over one of the 1929 measures which
the women are bringing up again,
this time with a good deal of conf
dence that they can bowl over the no.
torious lobby that blocked them in
1929. The measure, euphoniously
known as the-board-bill," aims at
radical improvement of the Maryland
landscape by taxing the unsightly
billboards so severely that they will
be moved far back from the highways
which means, often that they will
be torn down altogether. AS they get
their value from proximity to high
way for which the State pays, it is
reasoned that the State can probably
make them pay back some of that
value as direct tax.
This measure, whose chief purpose
is, of course, not money raising but
Identification, is to be pushed now in
hope that the States face can be
scrubbed up before the tourist flood
which the Washington bicentenary of
1882 will bring. Hence the league
counts on hearty support from great
many patriotic and historical socie-
ties and on unorganized citizens of
like taste who are already urging on
the Governor and the Legislature the
activities necessary for Maryland's
cooperation in the Washington cele-
bration and, of course, in Maryland's
own tercentenary.
This comes in 1884. A preliminary
report has already been made by the
Tercentary Commission headed by
William L. Marbury, with Richard M.
Duvall as executive committee head.
1t urges a 100000 appropriation,
which would provide for small mon
uments at Cowes, England, from
which the Ark and the Dove set forth
in 1888; at Blackiston Island, where
they first went ashore, and at st.
Mary's City, where the colony itself
was founded and where ground for a
park, on the very site of the ancient
Capitol, has been donated by the Epis-
copal church. The bulk of the fund
would provide for a Hall of Archives
at Annapolis, to house in a proper
form the invaluable historic docu-
ments which are now stored over the
State in quite inaccessible form. 1t
is significant that the American His
torical Association is now engaged in
printing in de luxe form the Mary
land Colonial Council proceedings OF
1695-173O, without waiting longer for
MARYLAND itself to make this valuable
contribution to historical research.
1888
Here, then is rough survey OF the
chief measures which are assured at
tention at the biennial session of the
Legislature-matters Of dollars and
cents, of traffic needs, Of public well
fare work, of political maneuver, OF
education, of Identification, of culture.
When April dawns we will know a lot
more about their success and will have
a better idea as to whether Legis-
latures should meet once in two years,
once a year, or-from other view
points-not at all.

New York, June 6.-(PeA woman
biographer, a German historian, and
a p%sychiatrist, all widely known, were
on record friday as opposed to DR.. A.
A. Brill's theory that Abraham
Lincoln was q "schizoid-manic" per-
sonality.
DR.. Brill's contention that Lincoln
was a DR.. t'ekyl and Mr.. Hyde type
who succeeded In keeping his baser
nature under rigid control was dis
puted by Ida. M. Tarbell. Emil Lud-
wig, and DR.. L. Pierce Clark.
Miss Tarbe]l said she never had
been able to trace to Lincoln any
story that could not be repeated to
decent-minded persons. DR.. Brill
claims Lincoln had q low taste In
humor which descended to the OBJ
scene.

paper before q joint session of the

II have sometimes suspected" said
Miss Tarbell, "that those who insist
on his (Lincoln,s) grossness might

obscenity rather than his that was
behind the story"
