ford by surprise, but ne acted quickly
Waters and Carter were seized and
placed under arrest Just as the advanc-
ing mass was nearing the bandstand.
The surprise move halted the advance.
The two men we're held on the plat
form for a moment and then taken in
side the Capitol. 1t took couple OF
minutes for the news of what had hap
pened to spread through the crowd.
There was a saving interval OF contu-
sion. Then, as if the 5000 had but
one voice, came that weird, tempest
like roar: I'VE want Waters; We want
Waters"
Gen. Glassford fastened back to the
bandstand The roar grew louder. The
men in front began to climb on the
platform while the few police on hand
pushed them back Nobody knows what
might have happened. 1t was at this
instant that the flower of st. Theresa
made her unexpected appearance.
But it remained a precarious situa-
tion. The men Sang-resumed that dis
concerting cry, We want Waters"
Leaders assured the police that if their
general" was produced safely the
crowd probably would quiet down, but
that they could not answer for the con-
sequences otherwise.
Waters was brought out, escorted by
a policeman. The face of the sim,
curIv-haired leader of the B. E F. was
set in an unaccustomed hardness OF
anger.
Here's your man" Gen. Glasstord
said. You wanted him. Now what are
you going to do?"
Angry Roar Resumed.
Waters turned to his followers.
II think I'm entitled to know what's
been said here in my absence" he said
angrily.
You're under arrest" he was told
and taken back again.
Again, louder than ever, arose that
angry roar from the ocean OF races.
But the first impetus was spent. Inc
girl started singing again. Donlon
Joined her. BY degrees the rest joined
her. Only, at intervals, still arose that
menacing roar. I'VE want Waters! Inc
singing held the attention OF the men
while Waters was escorted by ponce
men out of the Capitol and across tne
the matter out.
When this became generally known
the tide rose again. The woman
shouted through the megaphone;
BE quiet. can tell you now you re
going to get Waters in few minutes
I know you are"
And a moment later Waters hlmsel1
appeared on the platform and an
nounced that he had won his flgnt Win
the police. He was at liberty. Iney
had consented to occupying the Capt.
tol plaza and the central steps.
Waters spoke as a complete master
of the situation. He told his follow
ers he made "a gentlemanly concession
to the police to keep certain tranc
lines open. Also, he said, ne nao
agreed not to occupy the steps on the
Senate and House sides of the build
ing ION condition that everybody else
be cleared off them" He had agreed,
he said. to keep a lane open up tne
steps 80 the white-collar workers can
get down without having to bump INTO

range a conference, he said, with the
President.

Tension Still High.

still was high. Across the plaza SOUND

was ordered to continue to moveA6n.

Shouts Of I'VE want our bonus" rang
out at intervals as the Californians kept
up their siege. Occasionally they would
break into song and every few min

Shortly after the crowd began leav-

the word was flashed to the bonus
marcherS that Congress had adjourned.
Stepping out from the milling veterans,
Robertson announced that he would quit
Immediately. He called four lientenants
to his side and gave them orders to

BY SMITH w. BROOKHART
Senator From Iowa

President Hoover's pledge to
finance crop SURPRISES through a
farm board, made in 1928 and
never carried out, he has now re-
pudiated. He now openly says it
would not be successful. AS 1
have shown in past statements,
under his own management fol-
lowing the war. it was highly sue
cessful. All that is needed is that
the surplus production can be
held off the domestic market.
This surplus is not large, except
in the case of cotton. About half
the cotton we raise is exported.
But that price could be controlled
by proper Federal financing. be-
cause our export cotton makes up
about SIS per cent of the total ex-
ported by all nations to foreign
markets.
If cotton growers were so fl
nanced that they could hold UP
this cotton until they got a cost
of production price, their problem
could be solved. This could be
done by the Federal government,
as Hoover and Barnes did it with
wheat following the war.

Bureau of Mines Expert to Give First Aid and
 Mine Rescue Work

To organize classes in first aid training and mine rescue work George H. Miller, Senior Foreman Miner, United States Bureau ot Mines, reached here early this week and probably will remain for about two months. He was ac. compaded by Mrs. Miller.
 Arrangements were started Tues- day to form classes in the Alacka Juneau mine and mill where it is expected a large number will be enrolled both in first aid and mine rescue. MT. Miller will also give first aid instructions to local Boy Scouts and the Juneau Fire De- partment during his stay here.
 When he finishes the work here, he plans to go to Chichagof and Hirst Chichagof to organize classes Other Southeast Alaska districts probably will be visited later.
 Prior to coming to Juneau MT. Miller spent six weeks at the Ken necott Copper mines, coming out to Cordova on the last train to go over the railroad before it shut down for the winter. The Kenne- colt is working a total force of 216 men, he said. Of this number 1O5 are in the mines, and the re- mainder on the office staff and in the mill N

Juneau and Douglas Hoopa paua,,,I.r. Teams to Battle in Crucial
 Games Here Friday Night

In no basketball games this sea- son has more interest been evinced than is now manifested in the hoop contests scheduled for next Friday night in the Juneau High School gymnasium between boy and girl teams representing Juneau and Douglas high schools. The contests are of crucial character in that they may be decisive of Gastineau Channel championship honors.
 The Juneau boys have won two victories and need only one more triumph to gain the district title and qualify them to meet the cham pionship team of the Ketchikan district for the ll-Southeast Alas ka trophy.
 Douglas Girls Position
 The Douglas girls are in a like favorable position, having two Suc- cesses to their credit and requir- ing only one more victory to en- title them to compete for South east Alaska honors.
 Notwithstanding that the Juneau boys are winners of the last two contests, the local athletes are by no means favored to win the ap- preaching game. The team has been weakened by injuries Its prospects now are that it will not be in as strong condition next Fri day as it was last Friday and the previous Friday.
 Elmer Lindstrom, right forward, who suffered a charley-horse in- fury two weeks ago is not entirely recoverded from a second strain he experienced last week.
 Nikish Has Charley Horse
 Bill Nikish, center, has a serious charley-horse in the calf of his left leg. The injury is yielding to treatment, but slowly and stuborn- ly. He is not likely to be at top form Friday.
 George Karabelnikoff, left guard who was knocked unconscious three times in collisions in last Friday nights game, has not yet entirely recovered from his bruises. He has been allowed by Coach E. G. Went land to forego strenuous practice this week.
 Despite injuries, however, all the first string players on the Juneau squad are expected to take the floor at the beginning of the strug- gle Friday night.
 Full-Strength Front
 The Douglas boys team is ex- pected to present a full-strength front. Rex Fox, left forward, who was hurt two weeks ago and whc played last Friday before he had entirely recovered, is reported te be almost completely mended now If he should be at his best next Friday, his team will be more tor midable than in either of it's las' two games.

Douglas is sure to make it's most determined effort of the season for victory next Friday night. Ma turally Juneau will be equally de- termined to score another triumph and end the series. Teams Evenly Matched The teams are evenly matched, J Coach Wentland of Juneau de- clared this forenoon. Juneau won the first time by three points in an overtime period and the second time by only seven points. Victories by such margins are not indicative of much, if any, superiority. Un- les our injured players round into form quickly we shall not be as strong Friday as we have been pre- viously. Douglas is likely to be stronger than ever. Both teams are determined and can be de- pended on to exert their best ef- forts. I think the approaching games, that of the girls as well as that of the boys, will be the finest basketball exhibitions of the sea- son."
 Girls Not Disheartened
 The Juneau girls are by no means disheartened by their two defeats. The maidens are practic- ing faithfully this week. Their coach, Miss Enid Burns, feels con- fident they will appear to their best advantage in the approaching contest.
 Both defeats experienced by the Juneau girls were by close scores. In the absence of extremely ur- favorable breaks, the local femin- inc athletes have a fine oppor- tunity to retrieve their prestige Friday evening.
 An enthusiastic school spirit has been developed in connection with basketball this season on each side of the Channel. Virtually all the students will witness the con- tests.
 The Juneau High School band will be present to encourage the players.
 Undoubtedly there will be a large attendance of both Juneau and Douglas town folks. The recently established low prices of admission will remain in 1 force.
