JOHNSON WILL l COME. TO WEST,
 SPEAKING TOUR
Roosevelt Tells Him to Speak as Often as He
 Wishes, Where Desires

WASHINGTON, July II. = Gen. Hugh s. Johnson disclosed today he wants to turn the .NRA job over to commission and step back into private life as soon as Presi- Ident Roosevelt feels he can spare him.
 Gen. Johnson hopes to promul- gate new code before leaving on a combination vacation and speak ing tour to the West, a one big code for 450 small industries.
 The speaking plans of Gen. Johnson are considered the answer to published reports that President Roosevelt curtailed Johnson's speak ing tour in which the Adminis- trator is expected to expound MIRA. His office sent word to the Presi- dent that the tour, according to reports had been curtailed and the President immediately sent radio to Johnson to speak as often as he wished and wherever he desired

Glass Eye Frees Jensen; He Is Not SsBlueberry Tom'' and
 Wanted for AIaska Murders

BROOKLYN, N Y, July 1i.-- The glass eye that Thomas Peter Jensen cursed back in 1908, re- gained his freedom and brought swift. exoneration from an Alaska triple murder charge after hear ing before United States Commis- sioner Martin Epstein.
 Jensen, a Danish seaman, was freed after accused of murder in strange tale of greed, it being a case of mistaken identity
 Three sourdoughs of the Yukon gold rush tentatively identified Jensen as "Blueberry Tom" who was indicted for the staying of two prospectors and a dance hall girl during trip on which they car ried Alaska gold.
 Jensen was questioned to decide whether he should be extradited to Alaska.
 His glass eye saved him.
 Geoger Berg, Federal Agent at Seattle, testified "Blueberry Tom" had no glass eye in 1908. Berg knew "Blueberry Tom" well and quickly decided that Jensen was not the right man.

Albert Memorial Library
 Perpetuates Belgian Era

BRUSSELS, July 11-At the sug- gestion of King Leopold, the bulk of the funds being collected throughout the country for mem- orials to King Albert are to be punched for a national library in Brussels.
 As originally planned, the money was to be used for a monument in Brussels and memorials in the chief towns of each of the nine provinces.
 King Leopold's suggestion, which has been approved by the govern ment, is that his late fathers ser- vices would be commemorated best by a national library, erection of a monument at Yser in accordance with the wishes of ex-soldiers and the marking of the Marches les Danes site where King Albert met his death,

TWENTY DIMOND' BILLS ENACTED;. ONE IS VETOED
Every Bill of Delegate, Re- ported Out of Commit
 tees, Passes Congress

WASHINGTON, D. O., June 30. Especial Correspondence) = Ev- cry one of the 20 Dimond bills reported out of committee during the second session of the Seventy Third Congress was passed. The Mckinley Park and Nylan bills, already passed by the Senate, re- ceived House approval in the clos ing hours.
 Nineteen of these bills were ap- proved and one was vetoed by the President He declined to approve the Mckinley Park bill because, it is believed, of opposition expressed by the Department of the Interior.
 Measure Believed Just
 In the opinion of Delegate Di- mond and others who studied it closely, this measure was founded on principles of simple justice. It was introduced after the situation had been made known by D. E. Stubbs Of Mckinley Park. who has been in Washington since last fall awaiting the outcome.
 When the boundaries of the Park were enlarged a few years ago many settlers found themselves cut off from all possibility of mak- ing living. The surrounding country upon which they had de- pended for game and fuel had be- come part of the national park sys- tenn and investments built up over a period of years were suddenly wiped out. This was notably true in the case of MT. and Mrs. Stubbs, who had fine fox farm. Of course they got most of the fox feed by hunting and when that could no longer be done the busi- ness became unprofitable.
 Made No Appropriation
 The bill made no direct appro- priation. It merely provided for a review by the Secretary of the h. terior and, if any or all of the claimants dissented from his de- cision, they were given the right to appeal to the Court of Claims. An appropriation of $75,0O0 was set up for payment to these settlers in case the Secretary or the Court of Claims found their claims just. Otherwise the government would not have been out of pocket one penny.
 The Interior Department opposed the bill from the first, but the Delegate was able to get 1t through Congress despite that fact. It is customary to refer these bills back to the Departments after their passage and it is assumed that the

TUCWELL NOW
 TOURING WEST
 TO SHOW THEM
Brain Truster' No. l Sent Out to Become Acquaint-
 ed with the People
By HERBERT HUMMER

WASHINGTON, July Il. v The Administrations No. 1 brain trust -Dr. Rexford Guy Tugwen-wil revive a neglected hobby when he tours the agricultural west in his new capacity as Under-Secretary of Agriculture.
 It is inspecting agricultural ex- pertinent stations.
 He hasn't had much opportunity to pursue that hobby of late. A revival at the moment would fit in nicely with the professors plans
 While he will be travelling in be- half of the accomplishments of the new deal thus far, the Administra- tion also wants the west to get a good look at Tugwell.
 The fight in the Senate over his confirmation as second in com mand of the Department of Agri- culture, the contention of his crit ics that he was not a dirt farm CT" and his position in the brain trust" apparently have convinced the Administration that he should be seen.
 TUGWELL: A TARGET
 Inspecting agricultural experi- ment stations is considered to of fer a splendid and dignified meth cd for Tugwell to be seen by the rank and file of the farming ele- ment, and, at the same time, af- ford something he enjoys. It has been apparent for some time that Tugwell has been singled out by the Republicans as a target in coming political campaigns in their fight on the brain trust. ,
