NEW YORK, May 29.-It is very pleasant to dis
1 y cover, after all this time that Mr.. Sam insult
of Chicago is just home-loving, rose smelling,
grandson-kissing old gentleman, kind to reporters
and photographers and innocent of any of that
personal cusSedness which was ascribed to him dur
ing the long laboriouS years when he was too busy
making honest mistakes on a grand scale to give
due attention to outward appearances
Since his reluctant return to Chicago, Mr. insult

TINE old gentleman begins to reveal his true self
l. now and the revelation dscloSes familiar, low
able, hearted type whose sympatheS are aroused
so easily that they go through life being deliberately
harsh lest people learn how good and kind they are
There have been several of them in the business de-
partment of the baseball industry sweet and low
able that they could not trust themselves to be them
selves On the contrary they adopted the snarl as
their customary manner of speech and the quick
kick to the abdomen as the opening line Of their
repartee. They came to be known in the profession
as hard, bad men, but their friends never tired Of
explaining that they acted thus merely to conceal
their extraordinary gentleness of soul. They sue
ceeded very well.
Such change of demeanor Mr. insults would
hove skeptc to seek for practical explanations and
there may be clew to the phenomenon in the fact
that the Messrs Larry SHIFTS and Joe Cops, late
of the publicity department of Miami Beach, Fla,
have been employed by the insult properties in Chi
cago for the last six months or so to interpret the
soul of insult to a misunderstanding public and en-
dear him to the people
The MeSsrs. Snits and Cops have been well
taught in this line of work having worked under the
master, Mr. Steve flanagan, in Florida for several
years.
They seem to have wrought rather well, too, for
there has been suggestion in the Chicago dis
patches recently that public opinion in the sector
where so many citizens suffered from his honest mis-
takes, mas been undergoing an interesting change.

Policeman PrOUeS Hero of Strike

His appeal was not to patriotism law and order, or

popularized by Mr. Farley, won the day.

noon was brick-throwing just for the fun of it.

windows in that house over there. How about that?"

DOSSIBLY was little hypocritical in my APP
l. proach since everybody knows that it's fun to
throw stones through a window. To have a moral
reason for doing so makes it perfect He had
moral reason.
"A scab lives there" he explained.
And how do you know he's Scab?" persisted.

I'm for the underdog, and will take the rap of
being called a sentimental liberal arch

sympathy for the thin line of national guardsmen.
What is the Auto-Lite Company to these country
kids strung across a roadway? They of the same
stuff and the kids the other side. I
wanted to see some one stop between the lines and
cry to both crowds, why don't you get together?"
Men are dead and more will die. 1t is not ques-

Tunney'S Soul Exposed?

1V1 MesSrs. SmitS and Cops their knowing in the
business of directing public opinion once
selected by the late Tex Rickard to spend several
weeks at Spectator, N Y, the training camp of
James j. Tunney, and interpret the true soul Of
Gene Tunney to the press
Mr.. Tunney and the press were out of fix spir-
itually and Mr.. Richard, who was promoting then
the Tunney- Heeney production in New York, desired
that the press, and through the press the public,

So Mr. flanagan moved in at Spectator and
began his daily Interpretation to the sport writer's
This was one job, however which Mr.. flanagan
succeeded too we'll. Instead of interpreting Gene

Not EUen Guilty


TINE impoverished old gentleman, who is down
i to a pension of SIS a week from his son, no
longer is looked upon a guilty man but as nice
old man who might be guilty of error but hardly OF
dishonest or selfish intent. 1t is remarkable what
some people with a genius for management, can
contrive on little money but Mr.. insults frugal
outstanding of his SIS pension might recommend
him for an important place in the American gov
eminent some day. should he be spared.
He was able to go to Greece by way of Paris
and live year in luxurious quarters, to hire inter-
national counsel and finally to charter a whole
steamship for a casual cruise in search of nom
treaty port, on his pension of SIS a week. There
have been police officials in various cities from time
to time who have saved from 100000 to 100000 on
small salaries by practicng rigid economy. Some of
statesmen of the late Tammany regime in New York
did even better. But this is the first time that
little an income SIS week has been stretched so
far and the achievement suggests that Mr.. InSuh
should be restored to high financial command as
one who should be able to save money out of a
deficit.

PARKING BREAK
FOR EMPLOYEES

Employees Of the Navy and Mu-
nitions Buildings who own auto
mobiles finally seem due for q
"break" in their demand for
parking facilities.
It was reported today that the
National Capital Park and Plan
ming Commission is formulating
plans for paving grass plots be-
tween the many wings of the
structure, which occupies the
major part of the 100 block
Constitution Ave. An estimated
$37 800 required for the project
will be sought from the Public
Works Administration, it was
said.
The more than 800 employees in
the building who own cars have
been agitating for some time in
an effort to get the spaces paved.
While admitting that the grass
plots were desirable from a
standpoint of beauty, they en-
phasized that such valuable space
should be utilized for more prac"
tical purposes. The situation has
been aggravated by the fact that
Constitution Avenue in that block
has been torn up for some time.

an it's unusual appearance.

Athan it's unusual appearance.
This particular species, scien'
tifically designated as "manomera
blatchleyi, variety atlantica," con-
sists of nothing but females in
the vicinity of Washington.
Throughout the Eastern States
no male of this insect has ever
been found, although they are
common further West, in Indiana
and other States.
No Need In Males
Propagation of a species by the
females alone is called partheno-
genesis, in the lexicon of sci
entists. The eggs of manoinera
blatchleyi in the Eastern States
need no fertilizing, and hence
there is no necessity for the mas
culine sex of this species here
abouts. The ladies do all the
work.
Authority for these statements
is A. N. Caudell, of the division of
insects of the New National
Meseum. Ever since he was boy
he has been attracted to insects
in the same way, he says, that
certain insects are attracted to
him.
However, that isn't as good a
joke as the walking-stock bog.
Did you ever see a stick walk
ing?
The Washington times., 1934-01-03

You've probably seen plenty of
Walking-stickS, but did you ever
see a stick walking?
You can, if you you'll keep a
sharp watch around the nearest
clumps of bushes and grass-plots
this summer.
First, you'll spot what looks for
al the world like a twig. But
when it starts to move, you'll
know that you've found one Of
the curious walking-stick insects.
These strange bugs are a re-
markable example Of protective
mimicry in the animal world.
Their resemblance to a small
tree branch, is so. startling that
they can 'fhide" from their enc
mics even while they remain in
full view.
Know Species
Two Of the more than $500
known species Of walking-stick
insects are found around Wash
ington. ALI Of them are known
as "Phasmides," and the largest
come from Africa, where several
varieties attain a length of a
foot or more.
The local species, however,
seldom become more than four
inches long. But one of them

RULES DRAF TED.
To GOVERN
SALES
Allen Places Administrative
Costs At About 100000
Under Board System

Major Danel ]. Donovan, Dis
trict auditor, is preparing an esti.
mate Of revenues which the Dis
trict may expect to botain from
liquor sales and, using this esti.
mate as a basis, will draw up q
tentatives fiscal setup for the
local administration.
District Commissioner George e.
Allen, at whose direction Major
Donovan is preparing the eSti'
mates, plans to use approximately
per cent of the revenues for
administrative exjenses.
Based on unofficial estimates
that the annual liquor revenue
of the District will approximate
$750,000, the annual cost would
be approximately 100000.
This will include salaries of the
three liquor commissioners, each
of whom would receive $4,000 per
year, and approximately IS other
employees, among whom would be
three additional assistants in the
office of the Corporation Counsel.
Of course, Commissioner Allen
pointed out, all these plans are
contingent upon final action Of
Congress on the Commissioners
bill. Should any major changes
be made in the instrument the
estimates would have to be r.
ViSed.
Commissioner Allen also is con-
Sidering regulations to be set up
under the bill, including distance
of liquor sales from churches and
schools, hours of sale, sales to
minors, procedure of granting
licenses and other matters not
covered in the bill.
Admittedly due for a rough
and tumble battle. the District
liquor bill will enter the ring for
round one at the Capitol late
today when two committees COM
mence deliberation.
AS drawn by the District Com
missioners, the bill provides for
sale of liquor by any person Of
good character and with sufficient
cash in hand to buy a license.
1t also provides liquor sales may
be prohibited in any neighborhood
on presentation of a petition
signed by owners of 81 per cent
of the property in the vicinity.
Chairman William H. King, Of
the Senate District Committee,
said that his group will meet this
afternoon as soon as the joint
session is concluded to decide
upon date to start hearings. He
said he has not yet been re-
quested by the House committee
to hold joint hearings, but that
if such a request is made. he
felt reasonably certain the Sem
ate committee would agree.
