Justice Department States
Several Commissions Have
Been Revoked.

An investigation by the Justice De-
partment has disclosed instances of
false certification by notaries public in
the District Of Columbia, as a result of
which several commissions have been
revoked, it was disclosed at the de-
partment today.
c. E. Stewart, administrative assistant
to the Attorney General, issued warn
ing that further violations of the law
governing notariZation Of documents
will result in prosecution under section
which provides for Imprisonment Of
from to 10 years for offenders.
Names withheld.
Names of notaries whose licenses have
been Cancelled as a result OF ''irregulari-
ties" were withheld by the department,
it being explained that the offenses ap-
parently were the result of careleSsneSs
in administering oaths rather than with
any intent to commit fraud.
From time TO time the attention of
the department has been called to
instances Of false certifications by
notaries in the District of Columbia" 4"
Stewart announced. Many Of these

absence of or without the proper identi-
fication of the persons whose sigma
lures appear thereon.
"Of course, notary's certificate
should not contain any statement which
he does not know to be true. Much less
should he certify to q statement which
he knows to be untrue.
The attorney for one Of these
notaries attempted to excuse his client
by explaining that irregular methods
Of notarizing title papers are q COM

Provisions Of Code.
Steward called attention to the word
ing of the statute against false certifi-
Gates Of acknowledgement. The code
says that:
ANY officer authorized to take the
proof or acknowledgment of an nstru-
ment, which, by law, may be recorded,
who willfully certif1es falsely that the
instrument was acknowledged by any
party thereto, or who willfully certifies
falsely as to any other material matter
in such acknowledgement, shall be i'm
prisoned for not less than one year or
more than 10 years"
Stewart declared that when such vio-
lations are brought to the attention Of
the department, revocation of the

to the wishes of the popular Dem

Roosevelt, marches triumphantly
toward the polls under the banner
of prohibition repeal
In Alabama and Arkansas, bell
wether states of the once solid dry
south, the voters will ballot on re-
peal of the eighteenth amendment
next Tuesday. In Tennessee the
voting will take place two days
later.
Political dope sheets, which fore
cast 2 to l majority for re-
pealists in the total popular vote of
the three states, list Arkansas as
the only doubtful state.
In Arkansas, the prohibitionists
have made an intense ballyhoo
campaign. They have deployed
speakers and sound-trucks over the
state, and have penetrated even
into the remote, sparsely settled
hill country.
Such oratorical drawing cards as
Sergeant Alvin C. York, World war
hero, and Oliver w. Stewart, pres
ident of the Flying Squadron
Foundation, have joined in the
last-minute drive of the anti-re-
pealists.
A feeling of futility has settled
over the dry forces in Tennessee
and Alabama. Party loyalty and
enthusiasm for President Roosevelt
runs high.

ANDERSON, July 15.--Jesse H.
Mellett, former Anderson mayor,
and his counsel were comforting to-
day on what will be the next step
in his efforts to Dust Mayor Harry
r. Baldwin, following a Madison
circuit court jury verdict Friday
night unfavorable to Mellett.
Voting 10 to 2, the jury, after
eight hours elaboration following a
trial which opened Tuesday, found
for Baldwin in quo warranto pro-
ceedings brought by Mellet in an
attempt to unseat the mayor.
Immediately after the verdict.
Mellett counsel indicated new
trial would be asked.
This was the second trial of the
case within three weeks. The Jury
disagreed at the first trial. Judge
John w. Craig of Greensburg, who
presided as special judge, had stated
he would accept a 1912 verdict, but
not even ten could agree at the first
trial
Mellett, declared by physicians
called by Baldwin to be suffering
from an incurable disease, contends
that while he was i'll several months
ago Baldwin illegally assumed the

PORK IS BANNED IN
BIG WORKS PROGRAM
Few PostoffiCes Expected to
Be Built.

By Scripps- HOwdrd Newspaper Alliance
WASHINGTON, July 15.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt has served notice
that the three-billion dollar public
works fund is no political pork
barrel.
Favorable consideration will be
given by the President and the pub
lie works administration to nom
federal projects that promise a re-
turn on investment-such as mu-
nicipal power and municipal water
works systems.
The administration, it was learned
at the White House, has decided
that none of the public works
money is to be spent on federal
buildings and postoffices that can
not be justified on economic
grounds.
Rigid adherence to this policy
probably will provoke bitter protest
from politicians over the country
who expected this federal money to
be ladled out with a free hand in
their respective districts.

TEXAS remembers, too, the IA
L nous Red Ride" that the
Rangers staged in the '70s. clear
ing the whole border from Browns
vile to FL Paso of outlaws.
Banditry, cattle rustling and other
forms of crime had dismayed the
ranchers and driven many of them
from the country.
Captain Lee Hall, in charge of the
Rangers, conferred with Governor
Ireland of Texas. They decided on
the ride" and all Rangers in the
state were summoned to Browns
vile.
Dividing into three groups. which
formed a screen some twenty miles
deep, they rode from one end of the
Rio Grande to the other, cleaning
out the bandits and bad men.
When the Rangers wound up at
Ell Paso six weeks later on. no one
knew how many desperadoes had
been killed, as no count of the cas-
ualties among the outlaws had been
kept.
Today's custodian of law and or
der in the country west of the Pc
Co.'S is Ranger Captain j. Eagle
Vaughan, a product of the Big
Bend. Fifty years of age. the most
of them spent in the saddle in the
Big Bend country, Captain Vaughan
can spin many a yarn about the
days when you brought EN- back
dead or alive and a pack mule,
guns, camping outfit and plenty
of ammunition were your only COM
panions on long and lonely pur-
suit.

Gently, is tricky bandit leader who

He never stays to fight, but sour

Candalrio Baeza rides again to-

him bold. But the men of the Big

TINE internal long-term indebt-

things to say that this constitutes
an intolerable burden. We can carry
the load very nicely il there is only

business.
So. at any rate. asserts The In
ternal Debts of the United States.
a fat book prepared by economists
under the direction of the Twentieth
Century Fund and edited by Evans
Clar.
1t examines all phases of our debt
burden and lays down a series of
general recommendations.
The book points out that there are
two ways of meeting this debt prob
lem. We can scale down our debts
to fit our depressed economy; or we
can take action to bring our econ
omy up to the level where it can
sustain the debts. The experts rep
resented here conclude that the sec
ond scheme is to be preferred.
Opposing any general readjust-
ment for all debtors, they urge sep
arate adjustments obtained through
administrative mechcanisms set up
for the different fieldsfarm debts,
industrial debts, city mortgages, and
so on.
These could include reduction of
interest rates, avoidance of fore
closures, extensions of time for ma
turing obligations, and refnancing
measures.
To induce industrial recovery, they
suggest controlled currency expan-
sion coupled with ar extensive pro-
gram of public works. They also
call for strict Capitalization of COM
