MRS. VANDERBILT
AIDED BY FRIENDS
Members Of New York Society

tlnue Testimony.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, October 26-The i'm
posing group Of friends representing
New York Society and European no
bility, which has rallied around Mrs.
Gloria Morgan Vanderbilt today con-
tinued their testimony that she Is q
good mother and therefore entitled to
the custody of her daughter, 10-year-
old Gloria.
Supreme Court Justice John r.
Carew still kept the lid closed on the
court struggle between Mrs. Wander
bilt and Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney,
aunt of the child heiress.
Mrs. Whitney, who now has posses
sion of little Gloria, contends that
Mrs. Vanderbilt has shirked her ma
ternal responsibilities. During the
first two days Of the hearing her wit
nesses were heard in open court.
Despite the assertion by counsel for
Mrs. Vanderbilt that his client ought
to be allowed to present her side of
the story to the public, Justice Carew
declined to rescind his order barring
press and public
A witness for Mrs. Vanderbilt yes
terday was her twin sister, Lady Fur
ness. Mrs. Vanderbilt did not hear
her testimony. Pale, nervous and Wis
IDLY suffering from the effects Of her
collapse in court last Wednesday, she
remained only an hour-just long
enough to hear the concluding state
ments of Mrs. Whitney.

OLD POINT HOTEL BANS
JEWS, ROOSEVELT TOLD
Byrd Files Protest on Reputed
Attitude of Chamberlin-Glass
Also Enters Case.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
WINCHESTER, Va, October 26.-
Senator Byrd yesterday asked Presi-
dent Roosevelt to use his influence to
correct the condition" at Old Point
Comfort, Va, where the Hotel Cham
berlin, located on a Federal reserva-
ton, was reported as advertising that
Jews were not welcomed as guests.
"If both Virginia and the Federal
Governments are impotent to deal
with this situation" Senator Byrd
said, 81 will introduce a special bill
in the Senate when the next Congress
convenes."
Meanwhile, in Lynchburg, Senator
Glass dispatched q telegram to Rabbi
Louis d. Mendoza Of Norfolk, who had
protested to both Senators and to
Federal oficials regarding the Cham
berlin's advertising policy.
Senator Glass replied: IT think 1t
totally inadmissible for the Federal
Government to permit the sale OF
intoxicating liquors on Government
reservations in States which prohibit
such sales and I think it an outrage
for any institution enjoying Govern
ment privileges to discriminate
against any religious sect"
The liquor reference is based on the
action OF the hotel in claiming ex-
emption from State liquor laws be-
cause Of its Federal leasehold.

BETTER BUS SERVICE
ASKED BY ROBERTS
Peoples Counsel Says Fourth
Street Line Is Unsatisfactory
for Needs.

Peoples Counsel William A. Roberts
called the attention of the Public
Utilities Commission yesterday to "un-
satisfactory condition of bus operation
on the Fourth street line" and asked
for a trafic survey on the busses.
He said he had been told the Capt.
tai Transit Co. had stopped running
owl busSes on the Fourth street line
and was running them on the Seventh
street line instead.
THE large warehouses located on
the Fourth street line" he said, have
many employees who go to work in the
early hours, and three blocks through
that particular section is too far to
walk under such circumstances. I
suggest that owl service be continued
on the Fourth street line. While I
realize that extension of the Fourth
street line will occur in the near fu-
ture, do not think that this heavily
travelled route should be deprived OF
adequate service pending the COM
missions decision"
The Fourth street line operates over
the route Of the former Four-and-a-
Half street car line from Fourth and
Water Streets southwest to Fourth
street and Pennsylvania avenue.

MUTT AND BALDWIN
BACK BANK POLICY
Assets of Institution Were Swollen
to Save II, Court Is
Told.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CLEVELAND, October 26.-On the
validity of an attorneys arguments In
the eyes of Federal District Court de-
pend today whether two former off,
cials of the Union Trust c.. shall &c
free or shall have jury of eight men
and four women weigh the charges oi
fraud against them.
Readily conceding they engineered
every step Of transaction three years
ago when deposits and assets of the
now defunct bank were swollen arti-
ficially, Joseph r. Mutt and Wilbur M
Baldwin yesterday swore to the court
they did it only to save the institu-
tion.
Further, said their counsel. every
step was legal. Thereupon a motion
for a directed verdict of acquittal-
denied by Judge Paul Jones at the
expiration of the Governments testi-
mony-Was renewed. Arguments on
the motion will be resumed today.
The Government contends that in
purchasing $4,000, 900 in Government
securities from he Van Sweringen
Corp, Mutt, former chairman of the
Unions board. and Baldwin, the bank
president, acted only to window dress
q statement Of condition.
Nine days after the sale, the Van
Sweringen Corp. repurchased the
bonds at the same price At the in
stance of the bankers, the corporation
left the purchase money in the bank,
guaranteed by securities owned by the
bank itself, on the original sale.
Testifying with Mutt and Baldwin
was o. P. Van Sweringen, head OF
the corporation bearing his name and
one of the two famous railroad
brothers.
Mutt took the stand to assume en-
| tire responsibility for initiating and
negotiating the purchase and resale
Of the bonds. He said the securities
were bought to bolster the banks de-
posits by having the Van Sweringen
Corp. deposit the proceeds of the sale
In the bank.

D0UMERGUE CABINET
FACES FIRST SPLIT
Definite Break Seen Over Radical
Socialists Rejection of
Law Changes.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NANTES, France, October 26.-A
definite break with Premier CASTOR
Doumergue's truce government drew
one step nearer yesterday as the
powerful Radical Socialist party's
Committee on Constitutional Revision
voted to reject the premier's demand
for changes to deprive the Senate
of power to dissolve the Chamber.
The committees resolution, which
accepts most of the premier's plan, but
refuses its main point, was presented
to the Congress. Vote will be taken
tomorrow or Sunday.
Since Doumergue's plans for con-
stitutional provision center around his
proposal that the premier or the
President, or both, be given authority
to dissolve the Chamber and call for
election. the Radical Socialists re-
fusal to support him might mean the
wreck of his government.
Edouard Herriot and five other
Radical Socialists are, members of
Doumergue's cabinet and their resig-
nations almost certainly would force
the government out.

NEW YORK, October 26.-Proud to
have taken part In bit Of railroad
history making" Chief Electrician
David H. Romine of Omaha, Nebr.,
patted the power plant of the Union
Pacific's new record streamlined train
last night and said I'VE had a very
lovely trip"
The engines worked 100 per cent"
he said. Didn't give us a bit of
trouble"
Romine, who was born in Florence,
Ala, near the present Muscle Shoals
development, and who has studied
electricity since he was IA, spent
most OF the time watching meters.
Always his ear was tuned to the vibrant
hum of the generators, and he didn't
have much time for sightseeing"
Fast Speed at Curves.
One thing that impressed him, how
ever, was the way the M-100ol few
around curves.
I'VE picked up pilots at Cheyenne
and Chicago to advise the engineers
of track conditions over the, various
divisions" he explained.
They would tell the engineer what
a curve was good for, and If they
said As or so miles an hour We would
slip around it at from 10 to 90 miles
an hour and you'd never notice the
difference.
Some Of the I or degree curves
we hit as high as 100 miles an hour
without any danger at all"
The 900-horsepower engine drove
the train across the Sherman Hills in
hour, he said. about 80 per cent faster
than the usual speed.
Record Time Made.
Fifty-six hours and SIS minutes after
leaving Los Angeles the train, re-
sembling a huge yellow caterpillar
rolled into Grand Central Terminal
with a cluster of new speed records tt
it's credit. The previous transconti-
mental record was SO hours and 7
minutes.
w. A. Hartman, chairman Of the
board of the Union Pacific and sor
of the Vests great railroad builder
E. H. Hartman, hailed the trains per.
formance as meeting all expectations
Hartman said the biggest thrill
of the trip was when the Diesel-pow-
cred train stepped up to 120 miles ar
hour over a Emile stretch, a new
sprint record for ly-equipped trains
or equal importance with speed, he
said, was economy of operation. The
train travelled 1 4-10 miles on a gallon
of Accent fuel oil.
Oficials of Motor Improvements
Inc, of Newark, manufacturers of the
oil-refining device used on the trains

cost of the trip from coast to coast

Members.
BY the Associated Press.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill, October 26.-
A petition filed in Federal District
Court here yesterday sought to block
the election of Representatives from
Illinois until the State Is redistricted
to give the Cook County metropolitan
area equal representation with the
downstate districts.
John w. Keogh, Chicago attorney
asked the court to prohibit the isSu-
ance Of certificates Of election to the
congressional candidates who win No
yember 6.
He pointed out that Illinois has not
been reapportioned since 1901 and
contended that Cook County should
have IA of the States 27 Representa-
tives on q population basis under the
1880 census. 1t now has 10.
Similar attempts have been made
in recent years to force a realign-
ment of the districts from which the
Representatives and State Legislators
are elected.
Keogh's petition held that certifi-
Gates of election cannot be legally
issued under the present apportion-
ment and suggested that congressional
representation from Illinois be sus-
pended until the Legislature can take

NOBEL PRIZE GIVEN
3 u. S. SCIENTISTS
Harvard and Rochester
Doctors Honored for
Anemia Work.
pv+b b.Assoc,ated Press

BY the Associated Press.
STOCKHOLM, october 26.-Three
American physicians who reckoned
their success by the measure of their
victory over the dread pernicious
anemia yesterday were awarded the
1884 Nobel prize in medicine.
DR.. George Minot and DR.. William
P. Murphy of the Harvard Medical
School and Dr. George H. Whipple
of the University of Rochester will
divide the prize 1t is unusual for the
award to go to three persons.
The three scientists long battled
the disease. which until eight years
ago was considered incurable.
For liver therapy in anemia" was
the succinct summary of the award.
The three men will divide a cash
prize of 6260792 kroner (approxi-
mately SAL ,00O).
DR.. Minot won wide scientific ac-
claim by his discovery in 1926 that
liver cures pernicious anemia in hu-
man beings.
While DR.. Whipple in Rochester
was proving that liver had helped
clear up cases of anemia in animals,
DR.. Minot and Dr. Murphy in Bos-
ton were using liver in the treatment
of human beings.
They arrived at their results sep
arately, but each has publicly paid
tribute to the work of the other.
DR.. Minot. 49 years old, is a di-
rector of the Thorndyke Memorial
Laboratories at the City Hospital in
Boston and professor of medicine
at Harvard.
DR.. Whipple, a native of Ashland
N. H, and a graduate of Johns Hop
kins Medical School. has accomplished
most of his scientific research since
he went to Rochester in 1921 as dean
of the Rochester Medical College.

TAXPROBLEM HELD
THREAT TO CITIES
Municipal Association OFF,
ciaI Sees Disaster if Relief
Load Is Continued.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, October 26.-Represent-
atives Of American cities meeting at
the convention of the American
Municipal Association here today
heard a warning of impending disaster
if the present relief load on cities con-
unues.
The warning was sounded by Cliff
ford w. Ham, field consultant Of the
association, in the course Of a discus
sion OF salient problems confronting
municipalities.
Local financial policies of the past
few years have been of an emergency
nature he said. This must soon end.
Financial planning must again be-
come a major objective and local af-
fairs placed on more sound and per
manent bases"
The swing toward tax limitation is
a threat to the continuation of local
government. Ham declared. What is
needed, of course, is a balanced reve-
nue. system wherein real estate would
be called upon to bear only its Just
proportion. But the first thing that
must be guaranteed is the continued
operation of local government, and
until the elements of balanced reve-
nue. system can be made effective, the
support must be continued through
the channels where it has been
financed-the real estate levy"
More Federal control over local
finance can be expected to result from
P. w. A. loans, since in many cases
cities will need more capital loans dur
ing the life of these P. w. A. loans, he
| said.
James w. Martin, research director
of the Interstate Commission on Con-
| f1icting Texation, urged the necessity
| for close coordination of State and
municipal finance programs to relieve
present revenue difficulties.
| Martin suggested three means by
which he said the revenue plight Of
cities might be improved: Improved
property tax administration. State as
i sumption of certain activities now
largely financed by cities, and State
administration Of taxes which are
shared on some basis with municipali-
ties.
