By the Associated Press.

The Senator, who retired from ma

with his daughter the wife of Repre-
sentative Carroll Reece of Tennessee,
and her daughter. They had rented a
house in which they had been living

Mr.. Goff had been i'll some time but

short time ago.
While funeral arrangements have not

ices would be private and that i'm
terment would be in Arlington National
Cemetery.
Wanted to Retire in 1920.
In December of 1920 Mr.. Gof wanted
TO return to private life. He had served
as a special assistant to the Attorney
General of the United States under
Woodrow Wilson, was colonel in the
Judge advocate generals Office during
the World War and had just rounded
out a term of service as general counsel
and member of the United States Ship
ping Board.
Fond of travel and study he had
planned an extended trip abroad. Mr.
Golf was ready to sail when President
Harding summoned him to the White
House.
II want you to be assistant to the
Attorney General of The United States
said Mr.. Harding.
Thank you, Mr. President" replied
Mr.. Goff, but, no"
Mr.. Harding would not take no"
for an answer, and after he saw that
his arguments were of no avail, he
called in Irvine L. Lenroot, then SEN
ator from Wisconsin. The two finally
persuaded Mr.. Golf to accept. He
served for IA months, then resigned.

SABOTAGE CHARGE
DOUBTED IN BLAZE
Marshal Lauber Fails to Find
Evidence That Fire Was
Started Deliberately.

With several Investigations under
way as to the origin of a spectacular
fire, which swept through the top floor
OF the new Interstate Commerce Com
mission Building early last evening,
Fire Marshal Calvin LAUDER reported
today he had found no evidence to sup
port the theory of Sabotage" ad-
vanced by some construction officials.
An inquiry also was under way into
s25,o00 fire at Catholic University
carly today, but the possibility of in
cendiarism there was discounted by
officials. A man found lettering in
Mcmahon Hall, scene of this blaze, was
being held for investigation, but police
said they did not believe he had any
connection with the fire.
Cigarette Is Blamed.
Discussing the fire at the new Fed
eral building at Twelfth street and
Constitution avenue, Fire Marshal
LAUDER said he thought it likely the
blaze started from cigarette. LAUDER
conferred today with r. C. Roberts. one
of his inspectors, who spsnt considerable
time in the structure this morning.
Estimates of the damage varied from
$50,000 to 100000, all of which was
covered by insurance, officials said. The
most damage was done to the steel
framework, which will have to. be cut
out by torches and replaced.
The reports Of sabotage" apparently
hinged around the pending labor con-
troversy involving the hoisting engi-
neerS' union on two other Government
buildings.
Framework Twisted.
Investigators found the steel frame
work of the building, which had
been completed several weeks ago,
blackened by the flames and in places
twisted from the heat of the blaze.
Charred remnants of the wooden forms
used in fireproofing the steel by con-
crete were mingled with remains of the
insulation which had been burned from
its position directly beneath the roof.
Breaking out on the eighth or attic
floor about 5:45 o'clock, the fire gained
IdplQ HSduWdy anu UldZeQ lleTCely While
firemen struggled to reach it with water
The flames spread to the floor below
and burning timbers fell into the court,
setting fire to scaffolding many stories
below, used for setting stone. Some of
the Stonework waS found to have been
damaged by falling beams.
Flames shooting high into the air
presented a spectacle which could be
seen many blocks away and brought
large crowds into the area.
Breaks Out Second Time
After having been brought under con-
troll the flames broke out a second time
about 2:30 am. today, and No. IA En-
gine and No. Truck Companies checked
the blaze in about an hour.

CINCINNATI, Chic. January THE
strange case of a 22-year-old youth,

Though suffering from exposure and
his hair matted and prematurely gray

Hundreds of men and women, some
accompanied by children, had filed
through the church to look for the
last time at the face Of the thirtieth
President.
The body lay in state amid a pro-
fusion of flowers. Out of a masSed
throng that dhoked the wide street and
pressed tightly against the front OF the
church, steady stream Of people from
all walks of life-young and old-hl-
tered in through the church doorway.
They came out solemnfaced. Now
and then a woman dabbed her eyes.
Two little boys Sobbed. Some Of the
women were visibly grief-stricken.
The President Arrives.
President and Mrs. Hoover and a
special train bearing Washington
delegation arrived at 10 am, one-half
hour before the services were scheduled
to begin. They left the train under
escort.
The delegation included members OF
the cabinet, department heads, MEM
bers of Congress and other national
figures who were friends and associates
of the former President during his
terms in Office.
A large crowd was gathered at the
railroad station to greet the Chief Ex-
ecutive as he came to pay his last
respects to his predecessor.
Paul Claudel, French Ambassador,
arrived by another train.
In the Presidents immediate party
were Mrs Hoover, Chief Justice Charles
Evans Hughes, Associate Justice Stone,
Secretary of State Stimson, Secretary
of the Navy Adams and Secretary OF
Commerce Chaplin.
Mourners Move Quickly Through.
The line of mourners in entering the
church moved down an aisle on the
right. Double file and sometimes three
abreast, it thinned down to single file
as it passed the gray bronze caSket.
The muted organ sounded solemn
music.
Allowed to linger at first, the peo-
pie were asked to move more and more
quickly as it became apparent that the
ever growing crowd in front OF the
church would not be able to file through
In the brief period allotted-leSS than
an hour The line moved out reluct-
antly, casting back last glances at the
casket and its banked flowers.
The waiting crowd outside remained
orderly and quiet The skies above
were gray the atmosphere chill.
Over the large front door was draped
black crepe. Steadily, from all sides,
the crowd pressed toward it. There
was a narrow break in the throng
where the police maintained lane for
traffic.
Beyond the lane the crowd was
densely packed, overhowing curbs, side
walks and lawns-waiting anxiously for
an opportunity to join those nearer
the red brick church.
The time for the closing Of the
church doors drew near and hundreds
still stood in the street. hoping to enter.
The line was passing the bier at rate
of about 20 a minute.

nature continues to take up much
space in newspapers. Anyone some
what familiar with the situation and
knowing the candidate for governor
on the jumpers ticket in 1882, j. E.
Regain of Mankato, knows that he is
the kind of a fellow who likes to be
heard and for that reason alone would
force himself to the front. He was a
member of the 1881 Minnesota Legis-
lature, possessed some wit but had a
reactionary record and talked both in
and out of season. Talk is not what
gets us anywhere. Action is wanted
The average citizen is little interested

There are far bigger things to solve

READ THE ARTICLE

]. A. Wye of Fullerton, Calf, who is
presently doing field work for the
Askov American. has written an ar
ticle under the title of Farm Relief,
Unemployment, and the Way Out"
half of which is being published in
this issue. If space permits, the ar
ticle will be completed in the next
issue.
Mr.. WYE has asked that the Amer
lean review or criticise the article
editorially and to do it frankly. We
have not much desire to do that when
he is now doing field work for this
newspaper and Furthermore it is we'll
that the article be published in it's en-
tirety before any lengthy criticisms
appear. Suffice to say now that Mr..
WYE has given much thought and study
to what he has written, he is man
of mature years, upright and, honest,
and sincerely wants to do some good.
He was formerly for twenty years an
instructor in the Agricultural depart
ment of the Minnesota University and
secretary to the head of that depart
ment during which time he came in
contact with many and all kinds of
people-big and small. Mr.. Wye wants
to place the farmer on higher plane,
he is sincere about that, and writes
much about the deserving farmer, but
that of course will not put him there.
A criticism of the article would be
that in the correspondents sympathy
for the agriculturist he has pictured
him actually below his status and
we are not so sure that that has a
good effect, unless to the extent that
it makes the farmer grit his teeth
and resolve that such condition shall
not continue. While we recommend
the article to our readers for their
perusal and thought it must be re-
membered that Mr.. WYE is writing as
an individual and it is not the edi-
torial expressions of the American.
Perhaps the worst criticism of the
article would be that it is too long
for what is said.
