Mrs. Doke in love letters as his white

Additional excerpts from letters
were disclosed by attorneys yester-
day.
One which attorneys declared was
written to Hollingshead by Mrs. Doke
within three months Of the time he
was shot to death at ranch said:
Dearest: II there has been silence,
do not question it-only believe in me
and trust me. Give me time to set
my face to the fire and come through
finer, stronger, because of it. Judson
has set us an example Of nobility of
purpose and impulse. Can we do
less?''
The admissibility of a purported
dying statement by Hollingshead Is
before the court. Hollingshead was
quoted by authorities as saying: "Doke
came out to see me and he asked me
for her letters and gave them to him
letters she wrote to me. Then, he
wanted a statement from me that all
1 wanted was her body. I said that
was not so and he shot me-"

Recovery and Assures
Banking Cooperation.

Praise for the national housing act
as a vehicle for economic recovery
and assurance that the banks of the
Nation will lend fullest cooperation
to the Federal Housing Administra-
tion in carrying out their program,
we're expressed yesterday by Robert v.

work of the organization in bringing
the support of bankers throughout the
country to F. H. AS repair and mod

were guaranteed by the Government
to take the place of Endorsement or

Il am most hopeful that the banks

principles involved in this legislation
and 1 feel sure they will cooperate
to the best of their ability toward
success of this movement which should
greatly assist in the employment of
labor, the consumption of materials
and in putting idle funds to work.

|C|V|L WAR SOLDIER
DIES HERE AT q
Michael Casey, Veteran of
80 Battles, Found Dead
at Sons Home.

Michael Casey, %, veteran of 80
Civil War engagements and sole sur
vivor of the s2nd Illinois regiment
which fought In the Battle Of Kenesaw
Mountain, died yesterday at his home,
622 Emerson street.
He was found by . maid In his
home where he had lived with his
son, Michael Casey. jr., engineer in
the Interior Department, when she
went to call him for his breakfast.
Mr.. Casey's death came less than
"a hours after his election to the
Board of Managers Of the temporary
Soldiers and Sailors Home at Ninth
street and Pennsylvania avenue south
east. He had gone there Saturday
night with his son.
Born in Ireland in 1910, he came to
this country in 1848 with his mother
to settle on q strip of farm land near
Newton, Ill, which his father had
located several years before.
Remembered Famous Debates.
He marked the beginning of his
affiliation with the Democratic party
by one of the Lincoln-Douglas de-
bates, when Douglas told the crowd
that Lincoln had on socks that he
had worn all his life. The people,
according to Mr.. Casey, laughed and
all but few left before Douglas COM
pleted his talk and Lincoln began to
speak.
Although he was not old enough to
vote that year, he was an enthusiastic
Democrat, and In 1854 he cast his
first vote for the party and Gen.
George Mcclellan.
Mr.. Casey enlisted in the 32d
Illinois Regiment with his father in
October, 1861. and fought alongside
Of him until the elder man died from
an illness contracted at Shiloh.
Fought in Western Area.
From '6l to IS he fought in battles
at Lookout Mountain, Vicksburg,
Birds Point, Jackson, Fort Henry and
Pittsburgh Landing. where he was
one of 80 men assigned to gunboat
duty.
When his enlistment expired in
December, 1864, he returned home
and re-enlisted, this time with his
brother, who died and was buried at
Nashville. Tenn.
After the war he became q con-
struction engineer for various rail-
roads In the West, subsequently be-
coming a rancher in Wyoming. He
came. to Washington about a year
ago to live with his son.
A cane with a silver plate given
him by the Maryland Sons of Civil
War Veterans on his 93d birthday
anniversary attracted the attention of
President Roosevelt when he was at
the White House recently.
1T should have been a shillalah, +"
the Chief Executive said after looking
at the stick.

NO MORE

In 1896, when the country was
recovering from a depression, such
recovery was greatly accelerated by
the wide open spaces which then
could be had for farming in the
western states. If a man could not
earn a living in the cities, he could
take up farm land cheap, and usu-
ally make a living.
Today, we have no frontier. The
country is settled. While
there is plenty of farm land, yet
more farm products are produced
than can be sold. We have to ad-
just ourselves to these conditions.
We must somehow make an open
ing for city and town people in

YOU PAY A L TAX

In a recent referendum the
voters of the state of Oregon dec
isively defeated a proposal for a
general sales tax.
By doing that, the Oregon elect
crate followed an example that has
been set by the people of a number
of other states and communities.
However, if the voters think
that they have eliminated the sales
tax, they are badly mistaken. They
are paying a sales tax now. They
have been paying one in the past.
They will pay one in the future.
The corner grocery where you
buy your food pays taxes. The
concerns which produce his stock
likewise pay taxes-heavy ones.
Those taxes are necessarily passed
on to the consumer as part. of the
selling price.
That is true of everything you
buy-gasoline O. entertainment or
food or clothes. Part of every dol
lar you spend goes for taxes-and
the proportion mounts constantly.
The fact that the tax isn't apparent
means nothing-an indirect tax can
be every bit as expensive as a direct
one.
The great lesson the people of the
United States must learn is that no
one can escape taxes-and that ex-
orbitant cost of, government
thpeatens our jobs. our savings our
property. When that fact is really
implanted in the public mind, there
may be a campaign reduction that
will get results.

WANING

A year or two ago it was widely
believed that enthusiasm for NUM-
cipal ownership of electric plants
was growing. 1t was forecast that
within a very short time there
would be a tremendous increase in
the number of towns trying such
ventures.
Now even Jealous municipal
ownership advocates are admitting
that the movement has not pro-
duced the expected results. That
admission, as a mater of fact, has
been made by the head of a NUM-
cipal ownership league who recent
ly said that the mass of public
opinion was for private ownership.
With the single exception of
Camden, New Jersey, no large city
has recently authorized a bond is
sue for a municipal plant, though
a number have voted on them.
Municipal projects that have been
approved are in very small towns
and, according to the Annalist, the
project turned down by the city of
Cincinnati alone probably out
weighs in actual importance the
projects approved, with the except
ion noted. And Milwaukee. the
only important American city
which has consistently elected Of
ficials running on the Socialist
ticket, has more recently turned
down a municipal power project.
This trend can, be attributed to
two main causes: First, the fact
that a large number of towns with
municipal plants have sustained
heavy deficits which the taxpayers
had to make up; second, that the
standard of service provided by the
private electric industry-both as
to efficiency and rates-is superior
to that of municipal plants, even
with their advantages of tax free
dom and public subsidies. The av-
erage American is a very practical
person-and practical considera-
tons are debating his vote on
schemes to put his town into the
power business at his expense.

GET DOWN TO FACTS

In a recent address, Federal Co.
ordinator of transportation East
man , the nations leading unbiased
authority on transportation pro-
blems, said that Congress should
provide for a careful investigation
of the economic. soundness of new
waterway projects.
Mr.. Eastman pointed out the cru
cial fact hat we have a surplus of
transportation. This situations has
led to the most destructive and des-
ructive and wasteful kind of COM
petition, not only between different
types of transportation but within
each group. And the public pay:
through the cost of service. as it
pays for all other kinds of econom-
ic waste.
The history OF waterways IN this
country does not make encourag-
ing reading. For the most part:
they have not been able to pay
their own way; even though they
were built with government funds
and pay no taxes. Many of the
larger waterways have sustained
heavy deficits for the taxpayers to
make up. In other instances they
have paralleled railroads and taken
valuable business away from them
at the expense of investors.
workers, and the public at large,
which depends on the rails as the
backbone of all transportation.
Mr.. Eastman is frankly dubious
as to whether, if all costs are taken
