Early Riser Sets Fast Pace
On French Financial Tasks

By Associated, Pressl

PARIS, Oct. 13.-Prof. Louis
Germain- Martin, the widely-travel-
ed, highly trained financial expert
of the Herriot government, is set
ting an "early bird" example to
his colleagues these days.
If he arrives at his office later
than z a. m. he reproaches HIM
self and promises to do better on
the morrow.
Other cabinet ministers have
been lengthening their work days
in anticipation of the assembling
of parliament within the next few
weeks, but with Germain- Martin
it is a habit. He rises at 5 a. m.
almost without fail and works for
an hour in his study before going
to his office.
He assumed the post of secre-
tary of the treasury at d most dif-l
ficult time. Shortly after he took
office the state cash box ran dry;I
Among his plans to rehabilitate
the country's finances was the
huge conversion scheme whereby
So, 400, 900, 600 in government
bonds were reissued at AZ per
cent, replacing securities which
had been drawing s and 7 per
cent.
M. Germain-Martin's father was
senator and he gravitated into
politics rather naturally. But he
maintains his professorships In
the law faculties of two schools of
higher learning.
He has had many contacts
abroad. In 1923 he lectured in
half q dozen American cities for

the corner of Catherine and Vir-
ginia streets was broken into some
time last night.
Through the rear of the store
the thieves gained entrance by
breaking small lock on an iron
bar used to protect door. After
this they forced Yale lock, enter
ed and looted the place.
The list of the loot taken is as
follows: Six packs of Bugler to-
bacco, II packs of U. S. Marine to-
bacco, I2h pounds of chewing to-
bacco, two cartons of Wings and
two cartons of Twenty Grand
cigarettes, six cans of hamburger
steak, one case corned beef, one
case Palm Olive soap, 12ls dozen
Ivory soap. lard, ham and butter.
A lot of sugar apples that the
proprietor had bought for his chill
dren the burglars ate. To be
sure that the perishables stolen
would be kept fresh for while
at least, the burglars also stole the
ice from the ice box.
Several objects that were hand
led by the maraudcrs were taken
from the store by Sheriff Niles
who turned them over to Roy Ham,
lin. finger print photographer,
from which TO make records.

HOOVER COM MENDED
FOR CALLING TROOPS
Liens Club of Washington Praises
President for Prompt and
Decisive Action"

President Hoover was commended
for his prompt and decisive action
in calling out Army units to diSperse
the Bonus Expeditionary Force In
OF Washington at its recent meeting
and transmitted to the White House
today.
The resolution asserts that the club
"commendS President Hoover for his
prompt and decisive action in remov-
ing from our city the so-cal]ed Bonus
Army which, by its continued presence
in Washington, was a continually in
creasing menace not only to the health
and morals Of our community, but to
the lives and property of cur citizens
and to orderly and progressive busi-
ness.
I'VE deeply regret the loss of life
which Immediately preceded the
entrance of the Federal forces upon
the scene and which probably was pro-
vocative of the Presidents action
which came only after our local police
had demonstrated its inability to cope
with the situation, and we commend
the Federal Army for accomplishing
its objective in so orderly a manner
without loss of life or shedding of
blood
The motto of our organization,
Lions, is Liberty, intelligence, our
Nations safety"

EIGHT CONVICTED
IN BONUS R|OT|NG
Radicals Receive Heavy Fines
for Demonstration Near
White House.
tFrom the $50 Edition of Yesterdays Starr

From the $50 Edition OF Yesterdays Starr
Eight bonus marchers who we're ar
rested during demonstration of the
radical wing Of the B. E. F. near the
White House July Is were convicted
on all charges by Police Court Judge
Isaac r. Hit this afternoon. Heavy
fines we're given in most cases.
The alleged leaders of the so-called
cleft wing" John T. Pace of Detroit,
drew the most severe sentence. He was
ordered to pay total of $40 on three
charges-disorderly conduct, parading
and making a speech without a permit.
The remainder of the group, with the
exception of David Budd, Washing
tonian, were fined $50 each on charges
of disorderly conduct and parading
without permits. Budd was convicted Of
parading and his personal bond was
taken by the judge. He claimed he is
not a bonus marchsr and had nothing
to do with the demonstration and was
merely a victim Of circumstances.
Others found guilty and fined were
John DeMetrick, Albert Gershowitz,
Louis PrivolaS and Fred Thomas, col
Ored.
Immediately after the judge had rem
dered his decision, Attorney, David Lev
inson of Philadelphia, counsel for the
men. noted his intention Of taking the
cases to the Court of Appeals. Judge
Hit fixed appeal bond at 5000 in each
case.
Earlier In the day Judge Hit, on
recommendation of Assistant Corpor-
alton Counsel Edward Welliver, dis
missed a charge Of making a speech
without a permit against Mckinney
and a charge of disorderly conduct
against Budd.
Pace denied on the witness stand that
he and his men were "parading' when
their march to the White House was
interrupted by police He said he told
the men before they left their billets
at Twelfth and B streets southwest
that day had been refused a permit to
parade, but that II they wanted to they
could proceed individually to the Execu-
tive Mansion.
BIameS Police Action.
Pace charged that police made the
contemplated demonstration appear to
De pdTdue WIlcu IIley SuIIUulucu I1c
men and forced them to proceed on
certain routes. Any disorder that may
have occurred he charged to the off,
GERS, stating that at one time he begged
a policeman not to throw a tear gas
bomb, promising them there would be
no trouble.
When Pace was asked whether some
Of his men had shouted: Down with
Hoover" Irving Schwab, defense at
torney, interrupted to declare that
Democrats all over the country were
saying this and we're not being ar
rested for disorderly conduct as a con-
sequence. Judge Hit ruled the ques-
ton out.
Comedy relief was furnished when
Policeman w. T. Murphy told of ar
resting Mckinney. He said:
When 1 learned his name I asked,
Are you Irish?' and when he answered
Yes said, you are disgrace to the
race
Then he said to me, Well, all the
irish aren't cops"
During the trial Prosecutor Welliver
brought out that Pace had been in the
Marine Corps about a month when the
arnistice was signed. All of this serv-
ice was at Paris Island, S. c.
