Things Changed
They have had repeal now for

But I think New York now

CLAIRE ALLEGES
READ R|FLED
HERPURSE.

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 18 G.N.S).
Alfred c. Read, jr., handsome
and athletic young San Francisco
broker, whose love a California
jury held was worth $4,000, to-
day stood accused of petty theft
OF $11 from Claire Windsor, gold
en-haired Hollywood film star.
This strange and sensational
new chapter in the affairs of
Read, gay Lothario and one-round
professional boxer, was written
when Deputy City Attorney C. C.
Brown issue a complaint signed
by Miss Windsor charging Read
took $11 from her purse Satur-
day night in her Hollywood home,
where he visited her on business.
Read was irate in Oakland
when informed of Miss Windsor's
charges. He said:
"She has nothing to base
such a request on"
The actress asked him to see
her Saturday in Hollywood, he
said, to discuss her legal battle
for a new trial of the suit in
which Mrs. Marian Read, his
ex-wife, won $4,000 love
balm" verdict against Miss Wind
Sor. Read asserted:
"She tried to get me to sup

two officers seized me and ac-
cused me of theft. 1 went back
into the house with them, and
denied it. Miss Windsor gave

FINLAND SOLVES HER LIQUOR PROBLEMS
Patriot Gives u. S.
Tip on the "BIack
Days" Curse

Strandberg said it was typical.
They were afraid, at the start
that Finland would fall off the
wagon with a mighty thud, she
said. So the newspapers preached
the virtues of temperance, unlVer'
sity youths passed regulations
against the presence of intoxi-
cants in their club, SpeechmakerS
denounced prohibition, but called
for only sensible drinking. She
continued:
1--WE had black days for a
while. Those were the days
before and after Sundays and
holidays. No liquor could be
sold. The theory was that II
we didn't have them, too many
would stock up at the govern
ment stores on Saturday night
and devote Sunday to the
bottle.
But they didn't work. The
bOOtleggers took advantage OF
the plan, bought up all they
wanted from the government
and then on the black days
took the place of the govern
ment as distributor"
There was a hint for the United
States, she thought.

Justice James M. Proctor in District
Supreme Court today denied q motion
of Edward B. Mclean, former publisher
Of the Washington Post. for leave to in
tervene in the receivership Of the paper
to prevent its sale
The Post recently was thrown into re-
ceivership. with the consent of the
American Security & Trust Co., trustee,
by the International Paper Co., its prin-
cipal creditor.
This morning, George B. Fraser,
counsel for Mclean, contended his
client had the right to intervene as
sole beneficiary under the will of his
father, John r. Mclean. The will, he
said. clothed Mclean with authority to
block sale Of the paper.
]. Harry Covington, counsel for the
International Paper Co., replied that
the provision Of the will extended only
to voluntary sale.
In denying the motion, Justice Proc
tor said McLean's approval was not
necessary for involuntary sale, which
is the aim Of the present receivership.
He said Mclean can protect his inter.
ests through his co-trusteeship Of the
John r. Mclean estate.

Secrecy Maintained.
For some unexplained reason, the
utmost efforts were made at the War
Department and the Veterans Admin
istration to shroud the movement of
the troops with secrecy. The Veterans
Administration has been assigned the
task of acting as host to the S7OO
bonus marcherS during their stay here

Director Hines of the administration
today conferred with Col. Louis McH
Howe, one of the Presidents secre-
taries, on the plans for housing and
feeding the marchers during their stay
here. After the conference, however.
he was uncommunicative, saying that
he could not discuss his instructions at
this time, but that a White House
statement on the subject would be
forthcoming some time during the day.
At the War Department every ONCE
from that of the chief Of staff down
had declined to yield the slightest in
formation on the troop movement, say
ing they were under orders to MAIN

House came a denial that any such
orders had been issued. The Veterans
Administration, earlier in the day,
would not even admit that the Fort
Hunt site had been under consideration.
The troops travelled in Is large Army
trucks. They were escorted through
the District by Metropolitan Police.

LONG HAL IS SUIT
DESPITE WAIVER
But Court Permits Service OF
Process in AnseII Libel
Action.

Despite Senator Huey P. Longs waiver
Of immunity on the floor of the Senate
for remarks February 81 concerning
Brig. Gen. Samuel T. Ansell, counsel
for the Senate Campaign Investigating
Committee, attorneys for the Senator
appeared in Distric. c;iesc.s- Court to-
day and obtained dismissal on the
grounds of congressional privilege Of the
slander suit brought against him.
Another motion, seeking to Quas!1
service on Senator Long of process in
the libel case pending against him, was
denied by Justice James M. Proctor
This suit is based on the allegation that
Long caused to be printed in circular
form his TRADE against Ansell and dis
tributed copies throughout the country
The SANDER suit set out that, because
Gen. Ansell presented matter to the
Senate committee which he said would
show that Senator John H. Overton,
also of Louisiana, was "fraudulently
and illegally elected" Senator Long
made speech in the Senate calling
Ansell crook" "scoundrel' an6
the dog son Of a wolf" as well as other
epithets.
Invited Him to Sue.
Senator Long also is alleged to have
said: Il invite him to sue me in any
court of competent jurisdiction and /
will not defend the suit except on the
ground that he is a scoundrel and O
thief and a rascal and q crook, and
has been determined to be such by ar
investigating committee of Congress"
Gen. Ansell was represented in court
today by his son, B. r. Ansell, an at
torney, while Raymond N. Beebe
pleaded for Long.
Beebe argued the court was without
jurisdiction, since the Constitution pro-
vides that member Of Congress can
not be sued for anything said in the
course of his official duties and that
no individual member can waive this
immunity. He said the immunity was
not q privilege, but lack of jurisdic-
ton Of the courts. Senator Long could
not waive this jurisdiction by anything
he may have said on the Senate floor
his lawyer said.
Says Long Volunteered.
The younger Ansell, answering fol
his father. said Long voluntarily placed
himself in the jurisdiction of the court
and consequently can be sued
Justice Proctor then sustained the
motion for dismissal of the slander suit
and Beebe Immediately presented the
motion to quash service in the .libe
case, which was denied.
Beebe urged that civil process amount.
ed to the same thing as an arrest anc
that the Constitution provides that
members Of Congress are exempt from
arrest while Congress is in session, ex-
cept in cases Of treason, felonies or 9
breach Of the peace.
Justice Proctor, at the request Of Sen.
ator Longs attorney, granted stay o1
service until his decision could be taker
to the Court Of Appeals.
Gen. Ansell formerly was Judge advo.
