r OS ANGELES, August Con
a day that calls for big
L. hand for a great little guy,
Bill Carr, for his marvellous
400-meter triumph over Ben East
man in 46.2 seconds, the tenth
Olympiad was rocked today by
reverberationS of the greatest up
heaval since the battle of 1908.
The central figure of the controversy
was Lauri Lehtinen, Finland's greatest
young runner and disputed winner of
the 5,000-meter final. Ralph Hill, an
American boy, came within three inches
of defeating Lehtinen and shutting
out the Firms completely in the
Olympic long distance fiat races.
The cause of the dissension was
Lehtinen's interference with Hill in
an extraordinary stretch duel, during
which the Finn three times crossed his
American rival in clear violation of
rules as we'll as ethics in an interna-
tional meet upholding the highest
ideals of sportsmanship.
THE effect was to stir up fresh
l. aftermath of bitterness, ill-feeling
and partisanship today, with the
end of the track and field champion
ships in sight and Finland, once more
the storm center, only week after the
banishment of Paavo Nurmi from the
games on charges of professionalism.
Not since the 1908 games when an
American, Carpenter, was disqualified
for alleged interference with the Brit
ish star. Halswell, and the race reheld
as a 'walkover" for Halswen because
the Yankees refused to accept the de-
cision, has there been anything like
the outbreak of feeling that followed
Lehtinen's victory.
Officially it will stand, with Lehtinen
getting the gold medal and Hill shar-
ing with him the new Olympic record
of 1870, because the two were so
close together that the watches at the
finish showed no difference in time
But it will be a long time before the
debate is closed or Finland's escutch-
con greeted with the more or less SYM
pathetic reaction to her previous set
back here, the disbarment of Nurmi on
the eve of the games.

lHAWLEY SMOOT| TARIFF UP HELD BY 0. L. MILLS.
Secretary of Treasury Gives } Accomplish
 ments of C. o. P.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Oct. 7.- The Republican tariff theories were upheld and the Democratic princi- pies attacked by Secretary of the Treasury Ogden L. Mills in an address here last night in which he said the Tariff lis an issue in which every wage earner, every farmer, every manufacturer and every merchant in this country has a direct and vital interest"
 At the outset of his address, Secretary Mills listed three accom- plishments of the Hoover Adminis- tration as i've saved the credit of the Government; preserved the in- tegrity of the monetary system, and upheld the credit structure of the nation, tottering on the brink of disaster.
 Three Accomplishments
 These three accomplishments alone achieved in the face of fear ful odds, after the grimmest strug- gle, entitle the President to the gratitude and confidence of the Nation"
 Secretary Mills said things could have been much worse and can still be very much worse. eff you entrust the Government to a Par ty that has shown its inability to stand firmly by sound princi- pies, in time of stress and danger, end it's everlasting willingness to resort to panaceas. Things can become very much worse, particu- larly on the Pacific Coast, if the Democrats are given the oppor- tunity to do away with protective tariff and substitute competitive tariff for revenue"
 He said the Republicans stood squarely for the Hawley-Smoot tariff and believe the proposed world tariff conference impracti- cable.

NEW YORK, Oct. 7.-Darwin P. Kingsley, Chairman of the New York Life Insurance Company, died at his home here yesterday after a long illness, as the result of heart disease.
 The ascendency of Kingsley to the Presidency of the New York Life Insurance Company, one of the greatest financial institutions in the world, was regarded as a proof of his own philosophy that leadership lis no longer in govern ment' but "in science and busi- ness"
 For Kingsley was leader, not only in the vast field of insurance, but in international business and finance as we'll. This career had it's preparatory locale in the rustic environment of old Vermont and in the wilder atmosphere of the told western frontier, but it's field of fruition extended over all the continents.
 Semi- Public Service Besides presiding at the head of the New York Life-the business Of which runs into the billions and has qualifications throughout the world-Darwin Kingsley de- voted much time to semi-public service. While he was president of the insurance company he went to Japan in 1920 as member of an American business and finan- cial mission, and while in that country was appointed member of the commercial relations com mittee of the Japan Society to aid Oriental trade. In 1920-21 he was president of the New York State Chamber of Commerce. As President of the Chamber of Commerce he embellished the rep utation as public speaker which he had acquired while in college. As President of the Chamber and OlllCI dotl CoJCO 4lN QbtcSh~\ "~@> political system of the country, called for a federation of English speaking nations as first step l for a world democracy and de- fended modernism in religion. He saw life insurance as "a peaceful social revolution" and assailed the foolish philosophy" of the Dec laration of Independence that "all men are created equal" His Policies
 Business and scientific progress is based on practice and princi- pies that totally negative that great political axiom," he asserted Men are not equal in anything from birth to death"
