CHINESE HEAR
 TROUBLES OF
 FOUR FAMILIES
Unusual l6 Man Board Settles Business
 Complaints
By wEDNEL BURCH

United Press Stan Correspondent San Francisco, July 30, (UP)- Sixteen Oriental business men, well-tailored, quick thinking, pol ished in their manner, sat in a room looking Chinatown's main toroughfarc.
 There was much business to be transacted. Four disputes had arisen between members of the Four Family Society. One con- cerned the payment of loan; an- other had to do with storekeep- CTS lease; another involved dis position of an estate; the last re- volved about a break of contract on a large shipment from China. Claims of the disputes were con- sidered; the assembly dealt with each case as equitably as possible. and settlement was reached only when both parties accepted the findings of the. directors. Fairness was assured by the fact that four members of each family in the or ganization were on the council. Ancient Custom ~
 Thus a 2.000f year old custom and tradition was carried on in modern Chinatown. The 16 busi- ness men represented the Four Family Society. There are only a few hundred family names in all China, and some 25 of the fami- lies, the most numerous in China town have their own organizations to consider family problems.
 The Four Family Society has between 5000 and 4,000 members in San. Francisco, recruited from the Low, Kuan or Quong, Jung, and Chew families. Sixteen repre- sentatives are chosen yearly from their ranks, and a director gen. eral elected.
 In San Francisco the society has been powerful since the gold rush days of '49. It was founded more than 2,O00 years ago by three great figures in Chinese his- tory who swore mutual protection and devotion.
 Aided Dumas
 Their adventures furnished Alex |ander Dumas practically all the material for his famed novel, "The Three Musketeers." Lui-Pei, Kuan Yu, and Chang Fei were the ori- ginals of iD'Artagnan and his friends. They founded the Three Kingdoms dynasty, ruling China more than 100 years. Later a fourth member, Cheu Wing. en- tered the group, and welded China into a single nation.
 It was from such organizations as the Four Family Society that much of the support for the heroic defense of Shanghai came.

OF ACCEPTANCE

WASHINGTON, Aug. 8. W.R)-
President Hoover returned today
from a weekend at his Rapidan
camp and went to work immediate
ly on the speech he will deliver
at the notification ceremonies here
Thursday night.
Mr.. Hoover had expected to COM
plete the speech while at his camp,
but the unusual heat in his noun
tain retreat intervened with his
plans. He spent the weekend in
rest and motored back to Washing
ton in the comparative GOODNESS of
early morning.
The Presidents speech is practi-
cally completed, but Mr.. Hoover
wishes to revise it in few places
before sending it to the printer.
Arrangements for the notifica-
ton ceremonies showed today that
Calvin Coolidge has declined an in7
vitation to sit on the platform with
Mr.. Hoover Thursday night while
the reelection campaign is being
started by the Presidents accept
ance speech.
Republican leaders saw no signi-
ficance in Mr.. Coolidge's desire to
remain away from the capitol dur
ing the ceremonies. He has con-
sistently refraincd from public ap-
pearance of this sort.

CHAPLIN ASSUMES
HIS POSITION in
HOOVER CABINET

WASHINGTON. Aug. 8. WP)-A
plea for united effort toward the
return of better times was made
today by Roy d. Chaplin when he
assumed office as secretary of COM
merce.
Chaplin was sworn into office,
succeeding Robert I. Lamont, who
resigned last week, in brief cere-
mony at the secretary's office in the
new department of commerce
building.
Only few attaches of the de-
partment were present. The oGti:
was administered by Edward Lib
hey, chief clerk of the department.
While announcing himself pleased
with recent business developments,
Chaplin declined to make any pre-
diction. He said:
Naturally like every other Am
erican, I am gratified at the un-
m;stakably better tone that now
prevails in our industry and marks
our trade.
Concerning the future trend, I
will not be so bold as to venture
prediction-but one thing is very
certain, we must all exert ourselves
to the utmost TO strengthen all
favorable factors and to make the
inevitable turn come as soon as
possible.

department, which is designed sole
ly to help business should be po-

WASHINGTON, Aug. 8. - Con-
gressmen who carry relatives on
the government payroll are being
retired at rapid rate.
At least % have fallen by the
wayside thus far. Fifteen were de-
feated for denomination by their
own parties. Eight saw the hand
writing on the wall or for other
reasons retired without attempting
to come back.
Numerous others are due for re-
tirement, as barely half of the
states have held their congressional
nominating primaries. All sur
vivors must run the gauntlets of the
voters in the general elections in
November.
The casualty list spread over more
than a dozen states. 1t reaches
into every section, including North
Dakota, Illinois, Tennessee, In
diana, Pennsylvania and several
other states. Minnesota turned UP
four casualties, Missouri three.

spread existence of the family pay
roll racket has figured in numerous
congressional contests since the

FORD EXPERIMENTS ON PLANS
TO DECENTRALIZE INDUSTRY

by taking the factories along with
them.
To launch this new project, the
industrialist has started experimen, /,
tai farms near two southern Mich
igan settlements, Macon and Te-
cumseh
Employees who heretofore toiled
only in Ford factories are working
10000 acres, raising a huge soy
bean crop.
The soy bean crop will be di-
vided between food for the workers
tables and Ford laboratories, where
it will be processed through the use
of chemicals into industrial mater
ials.
The first step toward "farmiz-
ing" industry has been taken at
Macon, where engineers have erect
ed small mill to produce oil and
meal from the soy beans.
Ford chose the soy bean for his
first experiment because of its var
ious chemical elements.
For instance, when the Industrial
ist sits down to meal in one of
the company's dining rooms, the
menu usually includes soup, bread
and biscuits made from beans brok-
en- down by chemistry.
Ford does not believe in miracles.
Centralized industry was not Gre
ated in day. Neither can it be
torn apart and made to provide
food for itself in "a hours.

ASUNCION, Paraguay, Aug. 8.
U.P)-Paraguay's bitter dispute with
her neighbor, Bolivia, continued to
sizzle today, with two Bolivian
army flyers held captive at Fort
General Aquino where their plane
was forced down.
Fort Aquino is in the Gran Cha
co, over which the two nations are
quarreling. The two flyers, cap
tured by Paraguayan troops after
their ship had been wrecked, were
Lieutenants Elias Belmonte and

The plane was equipped with a
machine gun which had been used
to fire on the garrison at the fort,
general staff officers here said.
Meanwhile. President Jose P.

the Chaco district, declared that
America supports Paraguay's atti-

America is against Bolivia and

MARATHON RACE
WON BY RUNNER
FROM ARGENTINE
Zabala Sets New Record
For Grueling Grind In
Olympic Games
By STUART CAMERON
United Press Sports Editor

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 8. U.p) -
Juan Carlos Zabala, probably the
greatest athlete Argentina has ever
produced, was todays big Olympic
hero.
zabala was Olympic marathon
champion. He won this gruelling
race of more than 26 miles in new
record time.
Thus did the 20-year-old South
American climax six years of train
ing and two months of intensified
local workouts as holder of the
championship upon which he set
his boyish heart nearly six years
ago.
Little Juan Carlos trotted out OF
Olympic stadium early yesterday
afternoon as one of % marathon
contestants. His head was covered
with slouchy white cap. He was
first to return to the stadium with
the hardest part of the 26 miles
and 1856 yards behind him.
Only twice during the long run
was zabala out of first place.
Once was when Banas, Mexican,
eased in front of him about the
third control, a few miles from the
start. Then Wright, a great Eng
lish runner, took the lead, but wes
Immediately outrun.
Ferris, the second Englishman,
was wobbling but caught himself,
and finished in second place. Toi-
venen of Finland, not expected to
be among the first 10, came in in
good shape. Wright was fourth
and Tsuda, little Japanese runner,
finished fifth.
Zabala's nervous system was
frayed by the long grind. He was
tagged and ready to drop, when
attendants seized him and sup
ported him to walk around. He re-
covered quickly, however, with a
great show of spirit.
Joyously he waved his hat to the
crowd of $4,000 which arose as one
to thunder its applause.
Long after Zabala had crossed
the finish line, winner in :36,
establishing a new Olympic record,
the cheering went on, and the
South American lad, all but be-
side himself with joy, danced about
the stadium greensward, waving
the blue and white striped flag of
his mother country.

President Ortiz Rubio has not COM
mented on the subject.
The actual cablegram was not
turned over to the president by his
secretary until Sunday, but all
morning newspapers made much of
it.

Alleged Spurious
Coin Maker Taken
By Border Police

Counterfeit quarters, half-dollars
and dollars, and the moulds used
in the Illicit manufacture of the
bogus coins, are in the hands of
Calexico police today, while Mexi-
cali police hold Bill Struggs on a
charge of counterfeiting.
Struggs' arrest came about
through the cooperation of Mexi-
cali and Calexico police, after Guy
Echols, Calexico police chief, had
traced down the source of the coun-
terfeit coins and seized the moulds.
William Ashe, federal secret ser
vice agent, was at Mexicali yes
terday to determine what action
shall be taken on this side of the
international line. 1t is possible
Struggs may be prosecuted in Mex
leo, or he may be extradited to the
United States.
Undersheriff Rodney Clarke was
called in with Ashe to make an Of
ficial investigation of details sur
rounding the asserted counterfeit
ing.
Struggs was arrested when Mex
lean police became suspicious after
finding several bogus coins in slot
machines. He had a quantity of
the counterfeit money when arrest
ed, they said.
