PRESIDENTS 5
MESSAGE DUE
SATURDAY
Favorable Publicity Is
Back of Move to
Speed Report
International News Service

With an eye to affording utmost
favorable publicity to the Ad-
ministration, Democratic congress
sional leaders we're making plans
to receive President Roosevelt's an
nual message Saturday.
The strategy behind holding a
Saturday session to hear the Chief
Executive is influenced by gen.
eral belief the United States SUI
preme Court will hand down its
all-important AAA decision on
Monday. BY reporting to Congress
Saturday on "the state of the ma
tion," Mr.. Roosevelt is assured Of
getting his side of the picture be-
fore the country in advance of q
possible adverse decision by the
high court.
Following the same lines Of
strategy, the budget message will
60 to Congress on Monday regard
less of Supreme Court action. 1t
appeared that Administration
leaders were content to let the
nine justices overShadow the bud
get message with a AAA decision.
White House Silent
At the White House it was in
sisted no final decision had been
reached as to when the Presidents
annual message would be delivered.
It was announced there, however,
that the budget message would go
to Congress Monday, and this
made it imperative that the an
nual message be delivered either
Friday or Saturday.
To Honor Dead
It was understood among many
congressional SpokeSmen that
Congress would meet Friday and
adjourn Immediately out of re-
spect to dead members, and this
rather definitely placed Mr.. Roose-
velt on the roStrum Saturday.
The President has been working
steadily on his two messages for
over week now. They will have
a material bearing on the coming
presidential campaign and Mr..
Roosevelt has been marshalling
his facts and arguments with ex-
treme care.

PITT ASSAILED
0NDISMISSAL
OF TEACHERS
Professor Association
Puts University on
Ineligible List

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 81 G.N.S0.
The American Association of Uni
versity Professors today unani.
mously voted to place the Univer.
sity of Pittsburgh on the ineligible
list of the association.
The vote, taken by about 200
members of the association meet
ing here in conjunction with the
American Association for the Ad-
vancement Of Science, followed
reading Of report by DR.. w. w.
Cook, general secretary of the
association, recommending the
placing of the university on the
ineligible list.
Recommendation that the uni
versity be put on the ineligible list
was made by Prof. Carl Wittke
chairman of the committee on
academic freedom and tenure.
Based on Reports
The recommendation was based
on two published reports by two
different investigation bodies, and
on unanimous vote by Prof.
Wittke'S committee.
The most recent Investigation
began last February following the
dismissal Of DR.. Ralph E. Turner,
history professor, for alleged
"irreligious teachings" Then q
committees findings pointed to
ruthless materialiSm" in the city
OF Pittsburgh and a Symbolic
relation" between the city's
wealth and its churches.
Later, in April last, following
dismissal of three other pro.
fessors, Frederick K. Beutel, Fred.
erick Woltman and DR.. Colston
Warne, a legislative investigation
enSued into academic freedom at
the school, during which Beutel
testified:
"At Pitt man is lucky if he can
publish an article which doesn't
disturb a Pittsburgh industrialist. !"
and declared his future" there
was ruined" because of testimony
ne gave a Senate committee on
how "the Mellon machine paid
off" Andrew w. Mellon, a trustee
Of the university, had supported
Senator George w. Pepper for re-
election against Ware and Clifford
Pinchot.
Wittke Report
The Wittke report to the annual
convention today stated:
90. there is no evidence
that conditions at Pittsburgh
have materially changed since
the last report was published in
February. 1t is, therefore, rec
commended that the convention
take the necessary action to re-
move the university from the
eligible list"
Other institutions on the aSso-
cations ineligible list and so re-
naming by vote of Wittke'S COM
mittee, are: United States Naval
Academy, Rollins College, Harris
Teachers College, Brenau College,
and Depauw University.

MACHINE
TAXLEVIED

ARLINGTON COURT HOUSE,
Dec. 31.-Hundreds of dollars in
increased revenues for Arlington
county will be realized during the
coming year through county tax
on slot machines levied by the
county board of commissioners
yesterday.
Heretofore these machines have
only been subject to a State tax,
and the county received no reve-
nues from them. Yesterdays ac-
ton, on recommendation of Com
monwealth's Attorney Lawrence
w. Douglas, levies a $25 annual
tax on all nickel machines and a
$5 tax on all penny machines.
The State tax levied against
these machines is $2.75 for each
penny machine and $25.75 for
each machine playing a nickel or
more.
In it's last official appropriation
of any significance the county
board appropriated $21. 1872 to pur-
chase rights of way for the COM
pletion of the new Lee Boulevard
from Lyon Park to the Lincoln
Memorial Bridge.
A new county board, consisting
of three newly.elected members
and two reelected members, will
meet today to select its chairman
and appoint a county manager.
Despite rumors that County Man
ager Roy S. Braden would be let
out, the new board is expected to
reappoint him to his post for the
coming year.
Mr.. Braden resigned last month
to give the incoming board "a
free hand to select its own man
aper"

death went on, Hauptmann ap-
peared to lose spirit, his Self-control
finally sagging to the point where
he shrieked to William Newell, as
sistant keeper of the prison:
Stop! Stop, everything! For
Gods sake, where is my wife?"
All Newell's efforts to calm the
former machine gunner were in
vain, it was said. Finally he
threw himself on his cot and
Sobbed audibly.
In the meantime the court Of
pardons has left the naming Of a
meeting date to hear the Haupt-
mann case to the governor since
he is reported to be awaiting a
petition from defense attorneys
that Hauptmann be allowed to
plead his cause in person.
If the court agrees to hear
Hauptmann himself. Presumably
in his prison cell. It is believed
they will also allow Ellis Parker,
Burlington county detective, to
appear before them and explain
why he does not believe the
carpenter guilty Of the crime for
which he is awaiting death.
Parker and the governor are
scheduled to confer at the capitol
on Friday.
Final Execution
Johnson's execution was the
final one to occur here before
the week of January 13. when
Hauptmann is scheduled to die.
Among the AZ witnesses crowded
into the death chamber when the
colored man sat in the chair was
Harry Pawsner, Philadelphia
patrolman and brother Of Mrs.
Minnie Hurvitz, JohnSon's murder
victim. Pawsner said:
"If the State hadn't killed
him. 1 would have shot him
dead myself"

just too much of picture to
stand without inquiry.
There was no way to dig any
information out Of the President.
No one outside the inner circles
knows whether the President had
any part in the invitation and
the next burst was the story that
Alfred E. Smith had received and
refused an invitation to the
White House. Along with that
was spread the story from some
unknown source that Mrs. RooSe-
welt had frequently invited the
Smiths to drop in and make 1900
Pennsylvania Avenue their home
whenever in Washington. Seeing
that Alfred E. Smith has made
at least three attempts to drop
in that address for a much longer
period than a mere weekend, the
Smith adherentS seemed to be a
bit cynical about the whole al
fair.
Smith Issues Denial
At any rate, the Man in the
Brown Derby then declared that
there hadn't been any such bar
rage of invitations, ETC.. etc, he
hadn't had a bid to the White
House for two years-and that
was for tea.
Then Mrs. RooSevelt's press
conference produced a statement
from her. which was issued
later in press release form. and
now nobody knows who invited
whom, when or for how long.
At any rate, Mrs. Roosevelt'S
friends believe she did the courte-
Gus thing toward old friends.
And the Liberty League thanks
one and all for the publicity.

Glenn C. White, county admin

relief clients from driving autos.
The decree follows an increasing
number of accidents involving
drivers on relief. Said White:
"There is a two-fold purpose
in the order. We want to pre-

ways of drivers who are not re-
