The resignation Of Gen. Organ

September l3.
IT have a few matters that require
sny attention for a few days, the
general said in confirmation OF the

: With the general two of his ap-
: pointees are resigning. They are
second and third deputy commits
sioners. Harold L. Allen and Harold

Eminent resignation we're widely cir
@culated Early last month Gen.

aan important conference of police Of
.hcials, but Mayor La Guardia denied

Differed on Strike Attitude.
The mayor and the commissioner
differed on the police attitude toward

Just what the charges were against
him in 1928, but they did say the
sentence was for four years.
Hauptmann's father Is dead, but his
mother is still living. s.-- y.
Mother Hears News.
The mother, who is SO years old,
was all alone today in her own house
near the outskirts of the CITY, When
neighbors broke the news of her sons
arrest to her, she said:
II am used to all sorts of things
from the son who has caused me much
heartaches, but this news is the worst
yet" -.
An official, asked whether the statute
of limitations applied to the charges
against Hauptmann In Germany, said
he would find out from the states at
torney at Bautzen. .-,t--s -
The official said: -
I'VE hear that Hauptmann tried
three times to sail to America as
stowaway and that he was nabbed
twice, but succeeded the third time.
He was permitted to land because a
sister living IN America vouched Tor
him."
"A Tough Baby" &c..
The clerk of the Kamenz County
Court, which found Hauptmann guilty
Of theft in 1923, said:
"Hauptmann Is decidedly q tough
baby, of whom one might expect al
most anything.
II am not surprised at the news Of
his implication in the Lindbergh af-
fair. Before he landed with us he had
already committed various minor Of
fenses. ..-s
He was held without bail Tor trial
in 1923, but he broke jail with an ac-
complice one day while the prisoners
were taking their daily stroll in the
courtyard.
The police caught his accomplice,
continued the case, and sentenced
Hauptmann to four years in ahsentia
for a major theft" -4-

What's What
Behind News

"Bilbo and Long Two
Best End Men in
Politics."
BY PAUL MALLON.

AOA VAhAAo4Ns
~ NE thing every one here now
4 comedies Is that these New
Dealers can take nearly any
~ thing with a smile. They
have been able toconceal their
real feelings about some of these
Democratic primary results only with
great effort, but the effort never was
greater than when the man Bilbo won
the other day in Mississippi.
You may not know Mr.. Bilbo, but
you will He will become a United
States Senator next January. For the
following six years he will be a ma
tional character surprising Huey Long.
He has promised it.
AS one astute New Dealer remarked
after hearing of Bilbo's victory:
"All the Senate now needs to be-
come a minstrel show is a brass band.
Bilbo and Long are the two best end
men in politics.
Has Made Many Promises.
The secret of Mr. Bilbo's success is
not what you may think. He is not
anti-New Deal. Nor does his election
mean that Mississippi has gone ber-
serk. He made good reform record
in his first term as Governor and still
is supported by many Of the best fami-
lies in the State. as well as the back
woodsmen.
The best authorities on politics there
seem to agree his victory can be traced
to two things: % The unpopularity
of his opponent and 90 Mr.. Bilbos
promise of all things to all men.
His political technique is amazing.
He has been accused of nearly every
thing under the sun and few things
over it, and he never denies anything.
Indeed, he makes virtue out of most
accusations.
Evening star., 1934-09-21

For instance, a tale is told about
how one of his opponents in a CUB
ernatorial campaign accused him Of
chose to make reply at womens
political rally, where he said in effect:
"The man Bilbo (he altDdys looks
at himself objectipelyJ is 81 years
old. He has been accused OF being
q ladies' man. He does not deny
that accusation, but says that any
man 1pho is So years old and is
still a ladies' man is the kind Of
man you lCdnt for Governor.
1t is also whispered that, in another
campaign, he was caught in rather
embarrassing position because the
candidate for whom he was campaign
ing was dying Mr.. Bilbo did not Dat
an eye. Said he:
II would rather vote for a man in
graveyard with good respectable
name than the rest of these puddin-
heads who are running around dead
''Y won %nrn., ne 1o"n, ,s. o,,.. Chez, II
G1OIlC VI tllC IlCWSPdPClS III lllS StdLC
have said some things about him In
fighting words. He has been on both
the receiving and sending end OF
bribery charges. One newspaper once
commented on the fact that he hid
in a barn from court subpoena by
expressing commiseration for the ami
mails in the barn. To all OF which
Mr.. Bilbo turned the other cheek.
When jury absolDed him in a
malfeaSdnce case, he took occasion
to say that perhaps the Judge, the
prosecution and some other people
thought him guilty, but he sided
1Cith the jury. Also he is the man
Uho made that groundless GSser-
tion in the 1928 campaign that the
Republican presidential candidate
had danced iOith q Negress.
The New Deal attitude is illustrated
by what Chester Davis "a. A A. ad-
ministrator) said in jest. He thought
1t spoke well for Agriculture Secre-
tary Wallaces political acumen that,
in six months, Wallace was able to
develop a man capable of winning a
senatorial nomination.
The truth is the New Dealers would
not give Blbo a good job. In order
to take care of him, they gave him a
desk in the A. A. A. and permitted
him to clip newspapers at salary of
$500 year, fact they may later
have cause to regret.
Amusing Congressional Circus.
Nevertheless, Mr.. Bilbo will prob
ably vote with the New Deal in most
important matters. He will go wild
carefully and only on his pet subjects,
such as the cash bonus and the re-
distribution of wealth.
But his election and some OF the
others mean a tempestuous and anus
ing congressional circus this Winter.

"who did that?"

"Three weeks ago.

That ended the questioning and

headquarters prior to his trip to the
Bronx for arraignment in West Farms

LEAGUE nations
WAR GAS USE TOLD
U. S. Chemical Firm Says
Turkey Sought to Buy
Masks.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Senate Munitions Committee
today was told that almost every ma
League of Nations has organized
chemical and poison gas.warfare units
within their armies in violation of
the League rules Of warfare.
The statement was made in cor
respondence from Turkey to the Lake
Erie Chemical Co. Of Cleveland. The
letters said Turkey had no desire Ito
fall into the same situation as Man
churia," and had decided to build a
camoulhaged lethal gas plant.
Col. B. C. Goss, president Of the
chemical company, said he went to
Turkey this year to discuss the or
ganization of a chemical warfare unit,
and also submitted a plan for such
warfare to Rumania. The Turkish
proposal followed letter received last
year from Bekir Nuzhet of Istanbul,
which said the Turkish government as
a permanent member Of the League
Of Nations had undertaken not to use
the chemical warfare gas In future
wars. It added, however, that almost
every other country participating in
the League already had gas mobili-
zation in its army.
Rumanian Negotiations.
Goss testified he was negotiating
with the Rumanian government for
the establishment Of chemical warfare
sections in its army while also nego-
tiating for the sale Of gas masks in
Turkey.
so you were trying to promote war
gases with one hand and gas masks
with the other in Turkey" remarked

that he had telegraphed officials OF
the Legion requesting that every
ounce Of pressure be brought to bear
to stop any such foolish action
Senator Clark observed that any

was IAN absolute disgrace to the
Legion, and ought to be discharged
from the organization"
Hearings to Adjourn.
The committee plans to call Will
liam P. Brown of the Byington g. Co
exporting house and then adjourn
until November 10. when the hearing;
will be resumed.
Aroused by foreign attacks on the
inquiry, Senators said they would
delve deeper into the arms trafic il
November and December.
Senator Clark said today the most
significant fact thus far uncovered Is
that American munitions companies
are closely tied into an international
armament ring which II . menace

He said the second outstanding de-
velopment was evidence purporting to
show munitions makers were given Co

Another spot which has caused the
New Dealers to be less happy than
their public statements indicate is in
Ohio.
The New Deal generalissimos here
have heard that Democratic Senate
Candidate Donahey will make
speech to the State convention shortly
promising to defend the Constitution.
Private polls have indicated Donahey
will win in November. Private in
formation indicates he will support
the New Dealers only when he thinks
they are right, which may not be as
often as they expect.
The serious point about the Bilbo
case, the Donahey case and the
Upton Sinclair case in California IS
that Chairman Farley is trying to .
take them all under his Uing, and
it is beginning to look as though
the uirg may eventually become
bigger than the chicken.
Certain agents for President Roose-
welt have been working on the inside
the last few days to get Calvin Ma
gruder (another Harvard Law School
mani appointed to Garrison's place
as head of the National Labor Board.
You will shortly hear the railroads
beginning to blow of some steam for

That is the real reason the resigna-
ton Of ]. j. Pelley as president of
N. Y, N. H. & H. will be announced
socn. Announcement has been de-
layed because of an inside row re-
garding his successor. He will head a
new national railroad group organiza-
ton to be called the American Raj
road Institute. It will supersede the
two old inadequate rail-trade orEaui-
cations.
