Carmel's Romantic
Judge Disappears

CARMEL, Calf, June 27. U.P)-
The frequent disappearances of
Carmel's romantic police judge
caused Mayor John Catlin to
threaten disciplinary action today,
The 7O-year-old justice, Richard
Hoagland, staged his second van
ishing act within a week yesterday
and there were ominous rumorS
afloat today that he may be mar
ried after all.
Before the community had yet
definitely determined whether or
not Judge Hoagland was kidnapped
last Wednesday on the eve of his
proposed marriage to Mrs. Lucille
Cunningham attractive 40-year-
old widow, the judge faded from
view again. This time there were
rumors he vanished with a pretty
nurse and that the wedding with
Mrs. Cunningham is definitely off.
THE judge has a way with
women" declared Mrs. Cunning
ham, denying implications she
might start breach of promise
action.
IF he doesn't satisfactorily ex-
plain his absence I shall suspend
him from office" added Mayor
Catlin.

GRAND JURY TO
GET TESTIMONY
in MOSHER CASE

LOS ANGELES, June 27. U.P)-
Documentary evidence said to cor
roborate the sensational story OF
Edward S. Ward that he was paid
5000 a month to stay way from
Los Angeles after the attempt to
frame" Police Commissioner Thom-
as Walkup in 1880, may be laid
before the grand jury today.
Ward, taken into custody at San
Antonio, Tex, June II, on a war
rant accusing him of participation
in the alleged "frameup", has de-
clared he was paid by Wells j.
Mosher, confidential secretary to
Mayor John C. Porter, to stay
away from Los Angeles. He and
his wife had been constantly on the
move for two years, with all eX-
penses paid by Mosher, he said.
One of the letters Ward said he
received from Mosher read:
Things are not so hot, soon will
be all quiet. Keep in touch with
Prosecutor Johnson"
Mosher said he welcomed an in
vestigation. He denied Ward had
anything to do with the "frameup'
plot, for which Connor Mike
Shawn, taxi-driver, was convicted
and sentenced to two years i'm
prisonment on a charge of conspir-
acy to cause a false arrest.

able and enforcible assurance
against bank failures and against

Barkley flayed with sarcasm the
farm aid policies of the admins
tration.
The farm board, he said, "sta-
bilized wheat from $l.25 per bushel
down to 80 cents, corn from rs
cents per bushel down to 20 cents,
cotton from Is cents per pound
down to five cents, wool from 20
cents per pound down to seven
cents"
To aid agriculture he said he
felt warranted in giving assurance"
that. the Democrats would attempt
to remove from the shoulders of
agriculture a portion of the un-
natural burden which it bears"
Places Blame
Opening channels of trade es-
tablishment of cooperative agen-
cies, through which the farmer
may work out his own problems"
relief of a character so generous
ly granted to other forms of indus
try and finance" and reduction of
government expenses were some of
the means of aiding agriculture
which he proposed.
I'VE shall take the government
of the United States out of the
dubious adventure of speculation
in the products of the farm" he
said, with the activities of the
farm board in mind.
Barkley began his speech with a
review Of present economic condi-
tions, which he attributed to "a
combination of politics and bus.7
ness in politicS-a combination of
Imperial Valley press., 1932-06-27

ineptitude in government and the
cupidity of a certain type of bus
mess"
He paid tribute to Woodrow
Wilson, ironically told of the Hard
ing administration as the EZRA of
normalcy" and that of Coolidge
as the era of "econmy and infla-
ton" He blamed the abuses of
the Coolidge era largely onto "the
greatest secretary of the treasury
since Alexander Hamilton and the
greatest secretary of commerce in
all history"

the stern during that fifth-of-a-mile trip. But
the most frequent criticism is directed at the
Stars and Stripes carried by two soldiers beside
him.
"Leutze painted his canvas in Dusseldorf in
the 1840s, long after the close of the Revolu-
ton. But he had lived and studied in America
in his youth and had devoted much time to
historical research. Whether he took an art
lists liberty with the design OF the flag and
the design of the boat may never be definitely
settled But let us examine the works OF Peale
and Trumbull. soldiers of the Revolution noted
for their fidelity to historical details, whose
portraits of Washington are among the most
priced in existence. Two of them among
those selected by the Government to appear
this year on stamps in commemoration OF the
2O0th anniversary of the birth of the first
President.
Charles Wilson Peale was young captain
of infantry who crossed the ice-filled Della
ware that bleak Christmas night with Wash
ingtons Continentals. He had already at
tanned note artist, having painted Wash
ington'S portrait several years before at Mount
Vernon. He must have known what flag was
in USE if any, that eventful Winter of 1776-
1777.
Quickly subduing the Hessians at Trenton,
the patriot commander led his troops against
CORVALLIS forces at Princeton, and in bloody
engagement January drove them from the
field.
IMMEDIATELY after this double victory,
! which set the Colonies wild with rejoicing
and placed entirely new complexion on the
war, Congress commissioned Peale to paint
portrait of Gen. Washington in uniform pic
turing him at the very moment of triumph.
The young artist began the work late that same
year Q77D while in camp at Valley Forge and
finished it the following Spring.
He depicted Washington at the close of the
Battle of Princeton, with Nassau Hall in the
background and body of British prisoners
are grouped captured enemy flags and waving
over his head is flag with a circlet of Is
stars in blue field. The starry banner is at
the extreme edge of the painting, and the
stripes if stripes intended, thus cut
off from view.
"As though to atone for this slight to the
stripes, Peale, in 1888, gave them special prom
inence in a second portrait of Washington at
Princeton. Nassau Hall, before, is shown in
the background, with the conflict swirling
about it, and over Washington's head color
bearer holds huge flag with 13 stripes and
glimpse of a starry field.
1.-The first of these Peale portraits is now at
the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts.
Philadelphia, of which Peale was the founder,
and the second is the priced possession OF
Princeton University Their significance in re-
lation to flag history cannot be ignored. II
