@UT-IN-BAY Ohio, June 24.-On
the same waters where 12O
years ago, almost to the day,
Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry
sailed out in crudely made ships
to meet the British, more than million
dollars worth Of sleek and powerful
boats of present day modes will gather
here the week Of July to settle the
speed supremacy Of the Great Lakes.
It will be the fortieth annual sailing
Of the Inter-Lakes Yachting Regatta,
meeting of all the powerful ana
graceful crafts on Lakes Erie, Ontario
and st. Clair. Winners at the regatta
generally are recognized as the class
Of the Great Lakes. ..
During that week all types OF craft
are represented, from the luxurious
cabin cruisers to the tiny cat boat.
The harbor is q fairy land Of multi
colored lights and flags as the trim
boats ply back and forth.
REAT preparations are being made
Ythis season, when competition for
the class r sailing supremacy will
be resumed Last year Bobkat. hying
the colors of the Buffalo Yacht Club,
won first honors in this class, excelling
over such crafts as the Adele of De-
va
Detroit, Elyria of Cleveland and Tom
Boy Of Toledo.
Yachtmen say the class r races de-
velop the keenest competition of the
regatta events. The Bobkat will be
back this year to defend its title.
The starboat class is another division
that attracts wide attention. Crack O.
Dawn, from Vermillion, Ohio, will be
the defending champion next month.
1t won that honor from large fleet
of rivals last July by narrow margin.
Regatta officials believe that more
power boats this Summer will assure
success of the events, as the sail
boat entry Is certain to equal, or pos
sibly better, that Of last year.
"HE boats are scheduled to begin
arriving at Put-In-Bay on July 9
for registration, and the regatta
will start officially on July II.
The first day will be given over to
the sail yacht races in all classes as
we'll as power boats. In the evening
a deep water race to Lorraine and re-
turn will get under way. The next day

OUTING HELD

A days outing was enjoyed at
Savage, Md, by the employees of
Sears, Roebuck and Co. yesterday.
The day opened with a ball
game between two store teams
the Conway Cardinals and the
Carroll Crows, in which the Crows
were plucked to the tune Of 6 to 2,
thanks to the wonderful exhibi-
ton of pitching by Wheeler OF the
Conways. The high spot of the
game was the slide to second base
in the mud made by Joe Garvey in
the Conways, which earned for
him the name Of Elmer the
Great"
After the game a basket lunch
was enjoyed by all. Next were
the athletic events under the
supervision of B. Boyle. Races
and contests of all kinds were
held until $3.50 p. M, making a
full day of pleasure.
Mr.. Conday, general manager OF
Sears local store, Mr.. Carroll and
Miss Emery. executives, took part
in all events and enjoyed the day.
Guests of honor at the picnic
were the mother and father of
Miss Emery, who is the personnel

LONDON, May 81 U,N.S).
Keen satisfaction was expressed
by the British press and official

Robert w. Bingham, new United
States Ambassador to Britain, in
which he announced the end Of
Americas traditional tariff ma
tionalism.
Ambassador Bingham delivered
his address before more than 300
distinguished guests at a banquet
rendered in his honor by the
Pilgrims Society. Among those
present were the Prince of Wales,
a dozen foreign ambassadors, and
members OF the British cabinet.
The entire tenor of the speech
was a plea for unlimited coopera-
ton between the nations of the
world. He announced that the
people of the United States no
longer believe high tariffs are a
guarantee Of prosperity.
Ambassador Bins ham also
dwelt upon the departure from
traditional American policies EN-.

ment statement at Geneva by
Norman H. Davis, American am
bassador-at-large, who announced
Americas willingness to enter a
consultative pact to preserve
peace and sacrifice certain neu-
trality rights.

In Token of Peace

Fearful that the prosecution OF

would "arouse animosity against
the Jewish people" Theodore
Cohen, 26, of the Chastleton Ho-
tel, today indicated he would de-
cline to prosecute Representative
Francis H. Shoemaker, Farmer
Laborite of Minnesota, on a
charge of assault.
Cohen had charged Shoemaker
with assaulting him last April ID
in the formers apartment at the
Chastleton Hotel while he was
entertaining several friends. When
arraigned in Police Court on the
charge the Representative pleaded
not guilty and a jury trial was
set for today.
/ Both Agree to Truce
Thomas E. Bradley, Shoe
makers attorney, told Assistant
United States Attorney Michael
F. Keogh that the case would be
settled without court action. Mr..
Keogh was also told that Mr..
Cohen had written a letter to
United States Attorney Leo. A.
Rover asking that the case be
dropped. The trial was continued
until next Wednesday.
Mr.. Cohen said he had decided
to drop the case. Shoemaker told
newspaper men at his office that
he had communicated with Mr.
Rover and said that an agreement
had been reached between him
and Mr.. Cohen whereby the case
would not be pressed.
To Hold Peace Party
An attache at Representative
Shoemaker's office said today:
We'll, it's all over with now.
Shoemaker and the young man
did everything but kiss. They
met downtown recently, talked
the matter over and fixed the
whole thing up. Now they're
all going out some night on a
big party and celebrate. And 1
don't think it will be necessary
for anybody to be there to pre-.
vent a fight"

NEW YORK, May 81 G.N.SJ.
What sort of persons, socially
and spiritually, are among the
new large group of Americans
being converted to nudism this
year by those enterprising ex-
clergymen, Drs. Henry S. Hunt.
ington and Ilsey Boone, Of Scars
dale, N. Y, and Otis, Mass?
When this question arose dur
ing the investigation of nudism
as it emerged this year from it's
undercover existence in the
United States, answers we're
sought in interviews with the
converts themselves as they sat
about naked at camps and gym
naSiums.
The Lunatic Fringe
Previous converts also were
consulted. Among these was DR..
Maurice Parmalee, Phi. D., for
mer lecturer on economics and
sociology at New York and Co
lumbia universities and author
OF a book on nudism in Ger
many, land of the cults origin.
DR.. Parmalee expressed the
opinion that "the majority of
new members this year are of a
higher type than the majority at.
tracted to the practice during the
previous two years Of nudism in
America" He said:
TN the beginning here, as in
Germany, a large portion Of
the first nudiSt groups recruited
members from the Iunatic
fringe Of the population and
among the faddists who in
dulge in anything sufficiently
fantastic.
An advertising man connected
with one of the larger New York
agencies sat up on his blanket to
give his slant" He said;
"UnleSs 1 get out in the S0n
D lot during the summer I'm
bothered all winter with nasal
Catarrh and congestion. Last
year was able to go to the
beaches a lot.
"But this year, with the ad-
vertiSing business what it is,
can't afford much time at the
beaches, and 1 have no pent-
house terrace, and anyway,
like to see women around, and
men, as you do at beaches. So
here / am"
Shy With Men
A young woman stenographer
gave testimony thus:
"I needed way of getting
cheap weekend vacations, with
lots of sunshine, and 1 wanted
to get over my terrible shyness
and awkwardness with men. In
two week-ends at this camp /
have got over all my fear of
men, although none of the
young men have interested me
seriously in the slightest"

D. {. CITIZENS
FAVORABLE To
SALES TAX
Call Plan More Equitable as
Revenue Raiser; Income
Levy Held Unjust

Washington citizens feel that
the sales tax is a much more
equitable method of raising reve-
nues than the income tax, which
forces the little fellow to pay
taxes on his small income, yet
allows millionaires such as j. P.
Morgan to escape payment.
They feel that the laws as they
are at present are nothing moro
than a farce, enabling those who
should carry the major share Of
the tax burden to load it on the
shoulders of those who are al
ready under heavy load.
This can be remedied, the man
on the street in Washington be-
lieves, by means of a sales tax
which will place the amount OF
tax paid directly in proportion
to the amount of purchasing
done, making each person pay
his tax in direct ratio with the
amount of money he earns and
spends.
WaRe-EaTneE nuEuCH
Here is what some of Washing.
tons leading citizens feel on the
subject:
C, Chester Caywood, attorney:
"The average wage Garner is
carrying the bulk of the bur.
den of taxation now and that
burden should not be added to.
1t seems to me that the sales
tax is the fairest method.
Those able to buy shouldn't
mind paying a small tax on
their purchases"
George A. Maddox, attorney:
Personally I favor the sales
tax over the income tax bill
now pending"
Income LOophOles
Harvey w. Cobb, attorney and
cafeteria owner:
''I favor the sales tax as be.
ing the most expedient method
of collecting Federal revenue.
There are many lOOphOleS in
the income tax.
THE sales tax is direct and
more evenly distributed. Even
though it might mean a slightly
higher tax in some respects, IL
is easier to pay and it reaches
far greater number Of per.
sOns.''
A. D. Loffler, provision mer'
chant:
NATURALLY, I favor the sales
tax instead of the increase In
the income tax.
"Of course the tax will have
to be paid anyhow, but there Is
difference in the way it
would be paid. The sales
method is the easiest"
