Capt. Houck protested the filing Of
the charge, saying he had not at

Potter, a retired hardware merchant.
Il feared for my life when Potter
tried to break into my home" he told
police, so l seized the sword. the
first weapon to my hand, and pointed
it at him. thought this would dis
courage him, but he rushed right on
its blade. I believe he would have
killed me If he could"
They had quarreled after an after
noon of drinking in restaurant. the
officer said, when he insisted on walk
ing home alone rather than allow
Potter to drive him there because he
believed the latter was intoxicated.
The quarrel was resumed on the
steps Of the Houck home, where Capt.
Houck found Potter awaiting him.
Il forbade him to enter. but he
insisted" Capt Houck said. I'VE
struggled and backed into the house.
Still he came on. 1t was then I

DAMAGE TO LONG

BATON ROUGE, La, April 25.-
Jared Y. Sanders, jr., named to sue
ceed the late Representative Bolivar
E. Kemp in Congress, today described
the result as "a body blow to Huey p.

AS late returns from yesterdays
Democratic run-off primary were be-
ing counted, Sanders said the vote
lis a rebuke to the effort of the ma
chine politicians to corrupt" the dis
trict.
Victory in the primary is tanta-
mount to election. On the basis of

Wilson. Throughout the campaign
Sanders accused Wilson of being
backed by Senator Long, but Wilson
denied this and asserted his indie
pendence.

come into the open several times
since the death of Representative
Kemp last June.
Two irregular elections were held.
resulting in the naming of both San
ders and Kemp's widow. In Wash

denied and another election was called.
Frank Humprey, 81, farmer, was
shot and killed during a disturbance
at a booth while voting was in prog
ress. T. w. Thompson, IS, an elec-
ton commissioner for Sanders, was
charged with manslaughter in con-
nection with the Staying.
Reports to the sheriff's office said

drew a knife on Thompson and that
Thompson took a pistol from his
pocket and fired. Thompson sur
rendered to the sheriff and was re-
leased under 81 900 bond.

SUGAR CHANGE URGED

MANILA, P. l.. April Is R).-To
save Filipino sugar planters from a
year of virtual non-activity, Governor
General Frank Murphy said today he
has asked Secretary of War Dern to
urge that the -Costigan Philip
pine sugar quota be made effective
July l instead Of retroactive to jan
uary l.
The Governor said the retroactive
clause would give the islands an esti-
mated surplus of $4,000 tons, or ap-
proximately two-thirds Of the entire
years quota, because of previous ship
ments. This surplus, he said, could be
wiped out only by limiting next years
production to BIS. 900 tons, or fourth
of the present crop.

ROOSEVELT SEEKS

President Roosevelt intends to ask

actual naval construction to bring
the United States fleet up to treaty
limits.
This would permit the President to
begin the construction program any
time he sees fit.
Legislation recently enacted author

limits.
The appropriation measure, totaling
a little less than $780, 100000, will
go forward to Congress as soon as the
revenue bill has been finally framed.
covery appropriation outlined by the
President in his budget message and
$500 100000 of it will be tagged for
public works construction.
The President has not decided how
many ships, if any, of the more than
100 new ones authorized by Congress
will be built at this time
However. he does want authority to
use the new general funds for this
purpose if he desires.
With new labor disputes nearing the
White House, the President also re-
newed efforts today to establish defl-
mite industrial arbitration board.
The President indicated he would
not be able to go into the coal problem
in Kentucky on account of demands
en- his time.
It was said at the White House that
the strikes in the automobile industry
in Cleveland and st. Louis had not
reached the President.
Constantly harassed by these labor
issues, Mr.. Roosevelt is giving serious
consideration to legislation establish
ing board.
He is understood to feel the bill by
Senator Wagner, Democrat, of New
York, setting up a labor board will
help considerably. although it may not
be the final and permanent solution.

DISTRICT P. v. A.
BILL ACTION NEAR
Compromise on Repayment
Schedule Will Remove
Obstacle to Vote.

With the District Commissioners
and the Park and Planning Commits
sion working today on compromise
repayment provision for the s20,-
100000 local public works bill, pros
poets appeared bright for early con-
gressional action on the measure
The proposed settlement being dis
cuSsed this morning was that when
ever Congress makes further funds
available to the Park Commission out
of the S12,000,000 remaining au-
thorization under the Capper- Cram
ton law, those Federal advances
would be repaid by the District at
the rate of $500,0O0 a year. ASsum-
ing that at least 100000 a year
on will have to be repaid on any
funds advanced by the Public Works
Administration under the pending bill,
the total obligation of the District
under both laws would be $1,500,00
a year.
First Plan Different.
AS the bill stood yesterday, the
District was to repay S1,00O,000 a
year on the public works money and
a total Of not more than S1,250,000 a
year under both laws in the event
additional park money is made avail
able by Congress in future under the
Capper-Cramton law. The District
Commissioners, however, would have
possessed discretionary power to de-
termine how much of this total re-
endorsement was to be applied toward
retirement Of the public works loan
and how much toward repayment Of
Capper- -Cramton funds.
The Park and Planning Commission
was afraid that in such a form the
public works bill would have endan-
gered the ultimate completion of the
park purchase program contemplated
by the Capper-Cramton law, if
81 900, 900 a year was to be repaid on
public works projects and only $780,
900 on park advances.

vides that whenever Federal funds

himself today when he said he was
awfully keen about the work.
Speaking in enthusiastic praise of
the display, the President said one of
the officials Of the gallery, while
escorting him around at the exhibits
last Sunday, appropriately remarked
that out of the 600 pictures on view
there was not one depicting despair.
On the contrary, President Roose-
welt said. all of the pictures portrayed
hopefulness Of spirit that depicted
American life in true sense.
Whether or not the President was
poking fun at some modern schools of
painting is not known, but he re-
marked that it was very satisfying to
find he could tell right away, when
he looked at these pictures, Just what
they were intended to portray.
