PEERY STUDIES
NOMINATIONS

RICHMOND, Va, May 80.
With many of his hackers slated
not to return to the 1885 legisla-
tive session, Gov. George c. Peery
today was anxiously keeping track
of the Democratic nominations in
the Ninth Congressional district,
which he formerly represented in
Congress.
Among the nominees are H. B.
Ellis to succeed Robert E. Will
liams as "floater" delegate from
Buchanan and Russell counties,
and Harry c. Stuart, nephew Of
former Gov. Henry Carter Stuart,
successor to Senator S. j. Thomp'
son. who declined to be a candi-
date for denomination.
It is not known whether either
of these nominees will support
the Peery policies.
Vivian L. Page, house member,
is expected to succeed John w.
Eggleston, a Peery appolntee, in
the Senate. Senator Harvey B.
Apperson, Of Roanoke, is seeking
reelection, and a successor to
Abram P. Staples, Of Roanoke, in
the senate is yet to be named.

Thus 16-year-old Sylvester Ian.
carlo described to police today the
beating March 9, that resulted in
the death of his three-year-old
brother John. He was held on a
homicide charge.
John, youngest of six brothers
and sisters, was found dead in
bed beside his mother, police said.
His body was covered with bruises,
and an autopsy revealed he had
been kicked in the groin.
According to police the fatal
beating was the elimination of a
reign of domineering undertaken
by Sylvester three years ago fol.
lowing the death of his father.
He so completely dominated the
household, police said, that all, in.
Guiding his mother, were afraid to

Backing Food Tax

milk or bread and milk is what
DR.. Copeland emphatically de-
clares is the only healthy lunch a
Senator should eat.
The lie was given to this rumor,
however, when it was shown that
the tax would also be a boon to
those who had been entertained
too lavishly the night before. Sen
ators and others who patronize
the restaurant may obtain a small
glass of tomato juice for a dime.
The other few items to be obtain
ed tax-free if this amendment is
carried would be buttermilk. in
slant postum, dry or buttered
toast and cup cake.
A recent menu shows that the
tax should be profitable consider
ing that the lunches are priced
from IS cents to IS cents. A fresh
vegetable dinner costs SIS cents
and the sandwiches run from Is
to so cents. Salads start at Is
cents for hearts of lettuce and
climb steadily to IS cents for
chicken.
Observers point out that one
serious difficulty must be faced
either Congress must authorize
the coinage of a half cent to meet
the fractional tax on the uneven
charges or an adding machine
with fractions must be installed.
