OCBURN QUITS
n R A BOARD.

WASHINGTON, Aug. ID. UP
Professor William F. Ogburn, noted
sociologist and economist, resigned
today from the MIRA consumers
advisory board with a categorical
denunciation of methods which
have been adopted thus far in the
consumers interests.
Ogburn'S resignation was the CHI
max of bitter quarrel within the
organization, revealed exclusively
Saturday by the United Press.
In resigning, Ogburn rejected
peace offers by Administrator Hugh
S. johnson and Secretary of Com
merce Roper, who sought to smooth
the matter over by having Ogburn
remain on the board.
The upheaval within the MIRA
| has broadened to include more
than a clash between Ogburn and
Mrs. Mary Rumsey wealthy chair
man of the consumers board who
was week lending in Newport and
has not returned to her office to-
day. johnson was brought direct
ly into the situation with the re-
velation that he directed Roper to
notify Ogburn of his transfer from
the board last week.
In his letter of resignation, Og-
burn listed seven points on which
he said Americas consuming pub
lie was not being amply protected
These were:
l. Safety for the consumer in price
determination.
2. Lack of adequate indices OF
prices and purchasing power.
3. Charges that codes being pro-
mulgated do not provide satisfac-
tory administrative provisions.
a. Inadequate organization to
analyze codes and reports from the
consumers standpoint.
5 Lack of provision for fixing
standards of quality.
6. Inadequate equipment to ham
die complaints of profiteering.
7. Lack of consumers organiza-
tons.
1t was indicated that Ogburn
might remain in government SER
vice for the summer in another
capacity.

hoff minister of finance, on the
Talecon, was sacked. Everything
was destroyed. Police guarding the
ruins permitted the public to go
through the building to see the ha-
voc.
Police and soldiers, realizing the
genuineness of the peoples explo-
sive emotions, made no effort to
halt by force their depredations
Under Machado they frequently
shot into crowds.
Yesterday afternoon saw group
of soldiers and sailors besiege the
offices of the Cuban Electric COM
pany in which a Porrista had bar
ricaded himself. Every once in
while the Porrista fired through the
shutters at the crowd outside. A
soldier, locating the source of the
firing by the flash of flame, got be-
hind a post across the street. He
waited patiently for Is minutes. The
shutter moved as the Porrista pre-
pared to fire. The soldier fired first.
There were groans. The crowd ran
in and dragged the dying man
into the street.

CONSIDERATION
FOR VETERANS

PASADENA, Aug. IA. &U.P,-Dis-
abled war veterans are receiving
greater leniency from the admins
tration than at the time the econ
omy act was enacted, reducing SOL
diers' compensation, Frank E. Sam
uel, national adjutant of the Am
erican Legion, said in an address
scheduled for delivery today at the
opening session of the State Legion
convention here.
Samuel praised Louis Johnson,
Legion national commander, whom
he said was largely responsible for
loosening the federal purse strings
in behalf of worthy veterans. Sam
uel said johnson personally pre-
sented their case before President
Roosevelt and as result deserving
veterans are assured of reasonable
care and protection" Dependents,
too, are assured of greater consid-
Grafton and better treatment than
was provided Immediately after the
passing of the economy act" Sam
uel declared.
Samuel pleaded for greater unity
among Legionnaires and surrender
of personal whims for the good OF
the general organization. Opening
of the convention was preceded by
a parade in which 10000 Legion
naires took part.

Repeal OF Sales
Tax Is ObjectiUe

SACRAMENTO, Aug. IA. fU.p3-
First official step leading towards
possible repeal of the retail sales
tax was taken today when articles
of incorporation were filed for the
"Sales Tax Repeal Association,
inc
Incorporators were four San
Francisco men-Thomas w. For
syth, w. S. King, C. N. Wegener,
and A. l.. Branch.
The articles set forth the objec-
tive of the organization as follows:
ITO exert the efforts of the mem
bers of this corporation to work for
the repeal of that certain law
known as the sales tax act of the
state Of California, and such other
acts that are not conducive to the
best interests of the citizens of Cali

NO ARRESTS OVER WEEKEND
BUT POLICE KEEP ON JUMP

the troubled waters, and also a lit
tie on the radio, and everything was
peaceful and quiet in the city again.
Then, an officer had to answer
a call to Sixth and Main streets,
where, it was said, a calf, parked
in a truck, was suffering from the
heat. The officer answered the call
but when he CO. there the truck
had departed.
Police were asked to search for
man who hao Deen using coun-
terfeit nickelS in a slot machine at
local pool hall. Although they
did their best the man was not
found.
Presence of a policeman was
needed again when a man driving
car with a Washington license
backed into a water plug on the
east side, Saturday afternoon, with
the result that the whole street
was nearly flooded. The man got
away before he could be question
ed by police.
Another call came from distract
ed citizens asking that bowling
and barking dog be quoted. An
officer investigated but could not
find the owner of the animal and
so it had TO pe taken to the city
pound.
Last but not least of the items on
the report: A man returning to
his home late, found the door
locked on the inside. lie had left
home shortly before and had not
locked the door. Of that he was
positive. Imagination ran riot and
visions of burglars or other thugs
awaiting him inside that door were
too much-he sent for the police to
help him in his trouble. An Off
Ger came to his rescue and after
some questioning and a little in
vestigation it was brought out that
when the man had left home short
ly before, he had slammed the door.
This dropped the hook of the latch
into the eye on the inside of the
doorjamb and the door was lock-
ed. Simple, when you know how
it's done. Assurances of perfect
safety on the part of the officer
and heartfelt thanks on the part
,,of the locked-out man concluded the
episode and the oiiicer returned to
headquarters wondering what was
