Fights Injunction
On BrOadcasting
OfBase Ball
Radio Station WSCN
Viii Garry Order to
Higher Court.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, May 5.-A
court order was issued today to stop
a long-range broadcast of base ball
games here-and the radio station,
WSGN, plans to ask higher courts to
dissolve the injunction,
The Birmingham Base Ball Asso-
citation applied for the restraining
order to Judge j. Russell McElroy in
Jefferson Circuit Court, complaining
that an announcer from WSGN
perched himself in a tree outside
Rickwood Park and with aid Of field
glasses described the play.
Judge McElroy issued the restrain
ing order on a temporary basis, but
has not set a date for hearing on
a permanent order.
The petition asking the injunction
set forth that Rickwood Park, home
of the Barons in the Southern Asso-
citation, is surrounded by l2-foot
fence, and that the announcer was
outside this enclosure.
1t said further that broadcasting OF
games in the city where played had
been banned by directors of the
Southern Association.
Steve A. Cissell, manager of WSGN
said he would take steps to test the
validity of the order in the higher
courts, but in the meantime the tree
climbing announcer and his field
glasses will be missing from the GUS
tomary tree.

HISTORY IN STONE

Borglum Visions Pageantry
of Sculpture on Pam
American Highway.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Engraving the story Of America in
stone along this countrys link in the
projected pan-American highway was
suggested yesterday by Gutzon Borg
lum, the sculptor
Borglum made the suggestion at a
conference with Josephus Daniels.
Ambassador to Mexico. and Repre-
sentative Keller, Democrat, of Illi-
nois, on the United States part in
the road, planned eventually to reach
from Washington to the southern tip
Of South America.
Still indefinite plans for the cele-
bration of completion of a link from
Mexico City to Loredo, Mexico. near
San Antonio, Tex, expected October
II. we're discussed. A cavalcade of
high officials of Mexico and the
United States has been suggested.
Keller said that as soon ss the
route through the United States was
selected he would ask for $4,000. 900
for suitable sculpture along the route
Il haven't thought much about
what sculpture could be employed
along the American segment, but the
idea occurs to me that the possible
ties for pageantry are marvellous,
Borglum said. Think of a series ot
statues running from Washington tc
Loredo in which the history CT the
New World could be depicted in
stone"
Rex Martin. assistant director OF
aeronautics. also attended the con-
ference. He has thought of develop
ing the pan-American highway for an

King Ibn Saud of Arabia, who
has again sprung into the limelight
this week by the occupation of Yemen,
is the strong man of Asia. A fanatic
Mohamedan, he demands from all
his subjects that they conform strictly
to the precepts of the Koran. Drink
ing and other heather vices" are
punished quickly by death-the only
efficient way to enforce prohibition.
1t is said Ibn Saud is direct
descendant of the Queen of Sheba,
but from his behauior he seems
more likely to be descendant of
King Solomon. Besides his four
lawtM wipes, as prescribed by the
prophet, he has betDeen $50 and
300 concubines. His diplomatic
representative in Cairo stated in
1928 that his master had no less
than 700 children.

More is likely to be heard about Ibn
Saud soon, for he is an ambitious
man and wants to fulfill his dream
of Arabia for the Arabs" He hates

"heathens" have ever penetrated into
his former capital, Nejd. 1t was more
difficult few years ago to enter
Nejd than even Mecca. and death was
the penalty for any infidel who man.

Although the JeDs are indigenous
to Asia, and haze liDed in many
parts of Arabia for centuries, they
are hated more than any other
race BY the Arabs.
There are some Je,Ds in Yemen:
they haze been there from time
immemorial. But the Arabs are
treating them worse than Hitler
euer dreamed of treating them.
The main means of locomotion in
Yemen is the donkey. The law OF
Yemen prescribes that every time a
Jew riding a donkey meets an Arab
he must dismount and wait until the
Arab has passed him. ANY DISC
bedience to this rule is punished with
instant death at the hands Of the
offended Arab.

Sir Ronald Lindsay, the British
Ambassador at Washington. is a very
assiduous reader of the Congressional
Record. He reads it in preference to
the daily newspapers. And this stands
him sometimes in good stead.
Frequently during conversations
with Senators Sir Ronald is able to
beat them at their own game since
he knows more about certain ques-

than the Senators themselves.

.S|LVERBARS ROAD
TO ADJOURNMENT
Decision on Legislation Is
Key to Remainder of Con-
gress' Program.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Democratic leaders decided yeSter-
day that the key to early adjourn
ment Of Congress was made Of silver.
With President Roosevelt and the
Senate silverites to confer again to-
morrow to seek compromise on their
divergent views, administration lieu
tenants on the hill agreed that upon
settlement of this issue hinged the
order of the remaining program and
sine die adjournment.
While silver legislation was marked
by leaders only In the probable" en-
actment column, along with modi-
fled Wagner Labor Board bill, an in
dustrial loan bill and measure Gre
ating a commission to regulate COM
munications services, the following
were placed in the must pass before
adjournment" category:
Stock market control bill, passed
by the House Friday and tentatively
set for consideration by the Senate
tomorrow.
Tariff Bill on List.
House approved tariff bargaining
measure, which leaders expect to cal
up in the Senate after the Stock Ex-
change measure.
The 81 500 900, 900 appropriation fol
public works and relief, yet to come
forward in the House, where it must
originate.
The newly-proposed measure to en-
courage private capital to loan mil
lions, with Government aid, for re-
pairs and improvements to private
homes and for the building Of new
dwellings.
Aside from this program. two ap-
preparation bills remain for final pas
sage-the District of Columbia ano
the deficiency proposals.
One bill of the major variety-that
setting up machinery for debt-bur-
dened municipalities to compromise
their obligations with consent of a
ma ajority of their creditors-has passed
both Houses, but has still to be taken
up by conferees for adjustment ol
differences.
Charges HOlp Up.
Another bankruptcy relief proposal
was passed by the Senate Friday,
but is being held there by motion
to reconsider. This provides way
for hard-pressed corporations to &c
into court with financial reorganiza-

bankruptcy bill, in the special ses-
sion last year, but the Senate made

suit of a flood of applications to

President Roosevelt is ready tc
sign the s4l7.0OO 900 tax bill and the
sugar production control measure
In connection with his approval OF
the revenue bill, however, he will seek
Congressional action to eliminate OIL
to take some step looking to ultimate
elimination of the tax on Philippine

Leaders feel the farm sentiment is
too strong in Congress to repeal the
Philippine tax, but believe a resolu-
tion could be adopted to authorize
a commission to visit the islands te
seek ways of speeding up complete

During the two years and two
months this conference has been sit
ting, alternating and adjourning, not
gun, not rifle. not even a brass
button has been scrapped. Not one
decision has been made. The dele
gates have spent most of the time
trying to find a scapegoat to excuse
the conferences failure. Japan would
have served well, but Geneva is afraid
of Japan. Finally the leaders have
made up their minds to nominate
Germany to carry the sins of the

The armament manufacturers in

only benefcidrieS OF this untortu-
nate arms conference. Since the
Germans haze ShoIUn an intention
to redrm and hate started to or
ganize their military aviation, the
military budgets of all other nations
hdUe been soaring.
The French are undermining theil
war equipment. The British are
building ships and airplanes as fast
as they can. Rosyth navy yard
which had been closed since 1926. was
ordered reopened by the admiralty tC
overhaul the aircraft carrier Argus
Even unlucky byStanders like Switzer-
land and the Scandinavian states have
been compelled to increase their de-
fense budgets.
Apparently because of grave dangers
of aggression from Siam and China
the Japanese arsenals and navy yards
are working overtime, while we have
been compelled to build the Navy to
the London treaty strength and to in
crease our airforce. The King of Italy
has announced in Mussolini's presence
that the only security any country
can have lies in strong army. navy
and aviation. This is the final result
of the disarmament conference.
