SACRAMENTO, Cal, Oct. 13.-
Warren K. Billings. convicted with
Tom Mooney in the famous Pre-
paredness day bombing in 1916 at
San Francisco, looked forward to-
day to freedom by Christmas day"
by dropping pardon appeals and
asking for a parole from Folsom
state prison, near here.
Billings action parted him def
nitely from Mooney. who reiterated
his demands for o pardon to clear
his name"
I've been here a long time and
I'm tired Of this hotel" Billings de-
clared. Regardless Of how any
body feels ! know I'm innocent. I
always felt I should have been given
a complete pardon But that seems
hopeless.
Parole would not clear my name,
but it seems to be the only course
remaining"
A fiery young radical in 1916, Bill
lings today is a laxative youthful
appearing man of 40. During his
seventeen years behind oars he
learned several trades. but if he
gains his parole he plans to take
a clerical position.

Foremen in charge Of several H the

reported some of their men had failed
to show up yesterday morning. Their

On some of the jobs, shortage Of

men to stand idle. And when truck
loads of such implements showed up,
there was a general rush. to the &C

him and, pointing revolvers at him,

to move men from relief rolls to pay
rolls engage in a practical and wide
spread program of Winter construction
Engineers in almost every branch Of
the construction industry have de-
veloped methods by which Winter work
can be carried on.
1T is our intention to encourage the
use of these methods where advisable
on all projects involving public works
funds.
TT is realized that in severe North
ern climates there are certain types Of
work that cannot be continued through
the Winter because Of the high weather
protection costs, but, In order to coun-
teract this slump, we have provided
literally for projects that can be car

the weather Is more moderate, and we
intend to press for the speedy expendi-

ZOOS LATEST WOLF is LITTLE
AND RARE, EVEN THOUGH BAD

A little bad wolf, henna- hued, mule
cared and none too amiable, arrived at
the Washington Zoo last night, the
only one in captivity on this continent
or in Europe.
Keepers elsewhere can congratulate
themselves on the rarity of this species,
in the opinion of the chief ships OH
Ger, who landed the little wolf In New
York. yesterday.
DR.. william M. Mann, director Of the
local Zoo regards the newcomer less as
a playmate than as a unique and i'm
portant addition to the worlds zoologi-
cal collections
But it was with more pleasure than
pain that Chief Officer Lawrence King
of the Pan-American liner delivered
his charge yesterday to DR.. s. A.
Daveron, naturalist and authority on
vampire bats.
Mr.. King told New York reporters
he agreed to look after the wolf from
the jungles of Matte Crosse in Des-
calvados, Brazil, thinking he would
make a pet of the little fellow and
speed tedious hours by romping with
1t on shipboard.
The wolf. which Is known as the
ghost or named wolf, did not pan out
as the ships pet, Mr.. King said.
He growled and showed his fangs OF

Taylor hopes to get $4,000 from

1T took me eight years of constant
work to think of all this" Taylor said,
on his way to the Government agencies.

thought, being only an adopted son of
California, ''in that magnificent climate

white-collar workers, whose collars are
no longer as white as they once were,
but who are listed in the white-collar
class Just the same. There were four
or five such supervisors to virtually
every job. with a general superintend-
ent "a regular Government employee
in charge Of groups in certain terri
tories.
In the park, the men we're raking
leaves into neat piles, to be burned or
hauled away: they were grading slopes,
clearing away brush, even laying out
bride paths At other points through
out the city they were working on
street paving and similar projects,
sweeping cutters. doing general clean
up work. Dirt from the various grad
ing projects was being hauled to places
where fill was needed, rocks from areas
being cleared were being carted to
places where they might come in handy.
Nowhere, however, was there any
plan, any idea as to what was the OBJ
ject Of all the digging and shoveling
and raking.
What difference does it make?" one
fellow inquired. pausing to rub his bis
tered palms Just so We get paid, it's

New York in a bad humor, apparently
no whit grateful for the sheepskin coat
in which sailors had clothed him
against the chill Of Northern chimes.
DR.. Daveron laid plans for the capture
of the wolf while studying vampire
bats in the Brazil jungles last Sum-
mer. The natives did not know how
to trap ghost wolves, and were not par
ticularly anxious to learn. They were
superstitious, they said, and besides
more than one kind of bad luck befell
those who crossed a ghost VOLTS trail.
Dr.. Daveron. however, showed them
how to lay a moose for the animals
without crossing their path. The small
bad wolf Is only one-third Of the bag
which resulted Among the other two
were its mother, twice the size of the
whelp, which will be shipped later.
The little bad VOLTS ears are large
and mule-nke, giving it nasty ex-
preston when they flop forward. Any
three little pigs would run from 1t, in
Mr. Kings opinion, and the ships Of
ficer ventured the guess that the little
bad wolf would make q lot Of enemies
here.
On the contrary, the little bad wolf
today was the pride Of DR.. Mann's
heart.

Two hours of this is enough exercise

ASKS WIDE POWERS
FOR LIQUOR BOARD
Trade Body Head Urges
Discretionary Control for
D. C. Licensing.

Wide discretionary powers both in
extending and refusing licenses for
the Control Board proposed in Cor
poration Counsel Brides draft. Claude
w. Owen, president of the Washington
Board of Trade. said today in COM
menting on the measure.
The board. he said. should be vested
with power to issue licenses only to
persons well recommended ANY doubt
as to the character of applicants should
be sufficient grounds FOR refusing a
license" he said. Liquor vending
places should not become gambling dens
or gathering places for racing bettors
or undesirables. The board should have
full authority to examine premises be-
fore issuing permits"
Mr. Owen said he believed the amount
of tax should be kept within reason in
order that the retail price would be
such as to make bootlegging un-
profitable.
Thomas p. Littlepage, former presi-
dent of the Washington Chamber OF
Commerce, said he believed 1T is i'm
portant that, whatever legislation Is pro-
posed, the public does not get out
Of the frying pan Of the eighteenth
amendment into the fire Of the twenty
first"
Declaring he had not had an oppor-
tunity to carefully study the details OF
the proposed control plan, Mr.. Little
page asserted:
81 think there are several things that
nearly every one Is agreed upon. and
one Is that whatever legislation Is
worked out should be considered from
the standpoint of the public IN the
elimination Of speakeasies, bootleggers
and law violators. Just the best way to
do this will require considerable sound
thinking. It IS obvious from the ex-
perience under the eighteenth amend
ment that II restrictions are too great
they will be violated; II taxes are too
high the bootlegger will operate. He Is
! already organized"
