Charles Rouse's litigation to gain Gus

birth certificate.
He hurried here from Washington,
but she refused to let him see the baby.
He obtained habeas corpus writ that

Baltimore Men Are Identified

LEONARDTOWN, Md, May GA 20
mile chase by State police yesterday
resulted in the capture of four men
subsequently identified as the alleged
slot-machine bandits, who have been
terrorizing residents Of st. Mary S
County since wednesday
The men, captured near Great Mills,
gave their names as John Dollard, Her
man Smith, Leonard Rapp and Ralph
Harris, all of Baltimore.
The chase was begun following an at
tempt to hold up former Sheriff j. Ber-
nard Love in his store at Loveville
Love, who had been warned he might
be the bandits next victim, opened fire
when he realized hold-up was IN
progress.
Love Spreads Alarm.
Running from the store, the bandits
leaped into their automobile and head
ed toward Leonardtown. Love imme-
diately spread the alarm, and virtually
every male resident of the town armed
himself to await their coming.
Kennedy Abel, assistant cashier OF
the First National Bank here, fearing
an attempt to hold up the institution
summoned State Policemen j. r. Miller
and C. c. Serman of the Waldorf sub
station. The officers picked up the
bandits trail near Loveville.
The quartet headed toward the south

has come to export capital and put 1t
in some other foreign currency that
will be more stable. This attitude on
the part of foreign interests is wholly
divorced from the speculator group
which merely CANDLES in exchange and
is a reflection of what responsible
financial institutions abroad think OF
the way the American Congress is tenn
porizing with the situation.
Fourth, a belief that refusal to make
necessary economies Is largely political
and that Congress will never dare to
cut such large items as veterans ex-
penditures until the country has spoken
its mind in the next national election.
Conservative Majority Predicted.
Fifth, a decided feeling that condi-
tions cannot get better until there is a
complete upheaval in Congress, and 1t
is surprising the number Of predictions
heard that the next election will bring
to Congress the biggest conservative
majority since the war. This is based
on the theory that Great Britain swept
the Labor government out Of power and
gave the Nationalists complete powers
in a similar emergency. The people
here think conservative Democrats and
conservative Republicans will be elected
next time in overwhelming numbers.
Perhaps the biggest single cause of
the dropping spirits is the knowledge
that income Is to be confScated on a
scale unparalleled except In wartime,
and that today the country's businesses
and corporations cannot stand the
strain of increased taxation as they did
a decade ago. On every side Is heard
the statement that II the new rates 60
through, capital will be boarded and
kept from investment channels, espe-
cially in business enterprises which are
In such dire need of new capital to
carry on and engage more labor.
It Is pointed out that the Nation
came out of its 1921 depression by a
gradually diminishing tax rate instead
of a greater burden. and and it is as
serted that unless Congress finds some
other form of taxation besides the sur
tax, there will be big surprise when
the revenues are collected.
Further Anxiety Felt.
Talk of more tariffs, dismay over the
pension bills being passed in the face
of the discussion over payment of
soldier bonus certificates and lack of
cooperating leadership on the econ
O1l14Co ACCOCQ W bl1C OQQSCO
have produced such a profound i'm
preston on the investor institutions
that they are becoming resigned to a
Summer of even greater anxiety unless
Congress in the next 80 days clears its
decks and holsters the whole credit
structure with acts that produce pub
lie confidence.
Relief funds in many cities are near
exhaustion, the unemployed are rest
less and business upon which there is
ordinarily a reliance for moves that
mean unemployment is beUildered and
discouraged.
New York has been criticized as un-
duly peSsimistic and as selfish in its
desires, but the situation today trans
cendS such characteriZations 1t means
that the financial and business leader
ship of the Nation is scared and fright
ened and that this can be changed
only by action of Congress.

MACK-YANK SERIES
ENDS A STAND-0FF
Four Homers Win Opener of
Twin Bill for Champs.
FreitaS Beaten.

| BY the Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA. June A. The
- Athletics and the New York
Yankees continued their home
run bombardment through the
first game of a double header today
and then settled down for a quiet con-
test that ended the twin bill and their
six-game series all square.
The AS won the first game today by
a 10-to-7 count, hammering the ball
all over the let and smashing out four
homers to bring their total for the
series to 10 The Yanks slammed Tony
Freitas, Philadelphia rookie, around in
the first inning Of the second game and
won, to 4.
The homers, which included Jimmie
FoXx's twentieth of the season, handed
Lefty Grove his tenth victory of the
season and ninth in succession on a
platter. The star southpaw had a
rather hard time trying to still the
Yankee bats, giving up 13 hits. but he
lasted the full distance.
Bishop, Cochrane and Simmons hit
for the circuit off Henry Johnsons de-
livery in the first inning in a seven hit
assault that brought in six runs and
won the game. Johnny Allen was the
victim of Foxx's four-bagger in the
thirG. Charley Ruffing finished the
game after contributing a pinch double
to the Yanks' four-run rally in the
seventh.

ing the first two men and then giving
four straight hits. including a triple by
Chapman, but he settled down after the
first inning and pitched on even terms
with Herb Pennock.

Mishap Stops Manush.

THE accident that forced
Heinie ManuSh out of the
L lineup in the first game
at Boston yesterday ended a
conservative batting streak
that had netted him at least
one safety in the IL preceding
contests and was part OF a
splurge that boosted his aver
age total of 83 points.
In the 18 games since May
II, when he had a mark OF
.228, Heinie scored 18 runs him
self while batting in an equal
number, and his 33 hits, includ-
ing 7 doubles, 2 triples and 5
home runs, 4 of the latter in
successive games, boosted his
average to .311, the top mark
for all the Griff1thian regulars.
This rampage did much to off
set the skidding of Carl Rey-
noldS, who dropped from a
high of .42O to .305.
Manush's mishap, coming in
the wake of the beaning of
West, illustrates the value of
having available so competent
a pair of substitutes as Dave
Harris and Sam Rice, and en-
phaSizeS the inadviSability OF
the plan urged by some enthu-
siaStic fans of curtailing the
strength of the team by includ-
ing any of its reserves in a deal
to obtain that needed new
pitcher.
