Hartzeu claimed to be direct descendant of
Sir Francis Drake, the British admiral who by the
way was himself something of pirate, or free
booter before ne became known as British naval
hero, and HartzelPs operations were based upon
the recovery for the heirs of the Drake estate OF
fortune he said amounted at the time to ~ bill
lion dollars He sent the bait out to clients through
the mails. Telling them that they might share in
this great fortune and he offered to serve as their
agent. They took the bait. They sent the required
fees to Hartzel and it is charged that he has been
making from four to six thousand dollars month
for the last three years.
A Kansas City newspaper says thousands Of
persons throughout the Middle West were reduced
to poverty, children went without an education
and the grocer and butcher remained unpaid 50
the heirs could send money to Hartze and press
their claim for share in the colossal treasure that

No Special Step
Needed To Pull
NRA Insignia

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3.-UP)
No special procedure is required
to prevent display of the Blue
Eagle of NRA by employers or
dered to give it up because of
violations of provisions of the
presidents unemployment agree
ment and the codes.
Unauthorized display of the
Eagle is an offense under the ma
tional recovery act, punishable by
fine or Imprisonment. Once the
national compliance board and the
recovery administrator have or
dered a firm to give up the Eagle,
the proprietor is liable to arrest
by the U. S. marshal of his dis
trict if he continues to display it.
The administration viewpoint
is that the Blue Eagle belongs to
the government and is lent to
employers who sign the re-em-
nloyment agreement or a code.
Therefore the government retains
the right to recall the insignia. In
practice. an employer, ordered to
give up his Eagle, who still dis
played it probably would be serv-
ed with formal request for sur
render of the insignia by the U.
S. marshal of his district before
he was arrested.

Nikola Tesla Says Cosmic Rays
Can Be Used To Run Machinery
Of World, Displacing All Fuel

NEW YORK, Nov. 3.-UP)-
Nikola Tesla, noted physicist and
inventor, announced yesterday
that he had discovered a principle
by which power for driving the
machinery Of the world may be
derived from the cosmic energy
which operates the universe.
Tesla said the source of power
under his principle is everywhere
present in unlimited quantities"
and may be transmitted by wire
or wireless from central plants to
any part of the globe. 1t will elm
mate the need, he said, for coal,
oil, gas or any of the other COM
mon fuels.
Tesla indicated his belief that
the time is not far distant when
the principle will be ready for
practical commercial development.
Asked if its introduction would
upset the present economic sys-
tenn, the inventor remarked that
at is badly upset already" He
added that the time is ripe for
the development of new resources.
Though declining to discuss de-
tails of his discovery. Tesla point
ed out that the central source of
energy for the earth is the sun,
but that might will not interrupt
the flow of the new power sup
ply"
Telsa is the discoverer of wire
less transmission and the inven-
tor of both the induction coil and
the Tesla coil. He was awarded
the Edison medal for his scientific
accomplishments.

THERE'S A REVOLUTION, TOO, IN
POLITICS
(By BRUCE CATTON)

One of the things that may be changed
almost beyond recognition by the times we
now are living in is the good old American
game of politics.
Even before the new deal, it was COM
mon saying that it took highly trained
expert to tell Republican from Demo-
crat with the naked eye. Today the situa-
ton is more puzzling.
A sample of the confusion is to be found
in the matter of tariffs.
The Smoot-Hawley tariff act, passed by
Republican Congress and signed by d
Republican President was a target for
Democratic oratory almost from the day 1t
became law. 1t figured in the campaigns
of 1880 and 1882. Democrats beat their
breasts and called on the heavens to wit
ness that this bill was throttling trade.
Many got themselves elected on that issue.
cratic administration?
About the only thing the last Congress
did in connection with the tariff was to in
crease the Presidents power to shut out
foreign goods through the flexible-rate
provision. The whole doctrine of economic
nationalism-under a President whose
party additionally opposes that doctrine
has been pushed forward to a greater
extent than at any other time within a CEN
tury.
Furthermore, it is reported in Washing
ton that actual embargoes will be laid I'M
der the new price-raising policy. The ma
ligned Smoot-Hawley bill, far from being
too high, seems to be too low.
If all this is confusing, it is not more con-
fusing than some of the other things that
have been happening.
Certainly it is no stranger than to see
the party which always stood for states
rights and a minimum of interference by
the federal government putting forward a
program under which the federal govern
ment has more power than the devoutest
follower of Alexander Hamilton ever
o.. =. dreamed of giving it.
. D As a result of this scrambling of the
eggs, it is not so hard nowadays to tell
Republicans from Democrats. A Demo-
crat, it seems, is chap who looks like a
s Republican-and vice versa. And the
= scEambling process is by no means over.
The memorable logic of events is twist
ing our politics out of all the old forms.
What we are going to have when we get
20 through is a complete mystery.
.sist-T The one safe bet seems to be that an ex-
tensive rsalignment of political thought is
beginning to take place.

That idea of reducing taxes with moneys re-
ceived from the legal sale of liquor is great one
in the minds of many people. But did you ever
stop to consider whom it is going to relieve? Why,
the big income tax payers of course. 1t will not
reduce your tax nor ours one penny. The poor
fellows who buy and drink legalized liquor will be
paying tax to relieve the big fellows whose in
