DR.. r. Pearson
Resigns AS Head
OF Univ. of Md.
Sewers His Connection With
School After Board Gives
Ultimatum

DR.. Raymond A. Pearson has re-
signed as president OF the University
of Maryland, completely severing his
/ connection with the institution.
He declined an offer of the board OF
regents to become the institutions
lobbyist before Congress, with the
duty of seeking larger allotments OF
Federal funds for the university, a
land grant college.
The board, after an investigation of
three months into DR.. Pearson's ad-
ministration, gave him until noon to-
day to resign. In its ultimatum, is
sued Friday, the board said he could
forward his resignation to become
effective September l, taking sum-
mer holiday from noon today and,
thereby, completely divorce himself
from the university.
Or he could resign as of September
l, remain throughout the summer pre-
pairing the school budget and attend
ing to other matters of the institution
and, upon resumption of classes in the
fall, he could act as the lobbyist.
This was to have been a new posi-
ton, but the board had not decided
last week on the amount of remunera-
ton that would be attached to it.
In his letter of resignation, for
warded to the board last week, DR..
Pearson said:
"In reply to the command from the
State Board of Regents and State
Board of Agriculture hereby submit
my resignation as president of the
University of Maryland and execu-
tive officer of the State Board of
Agriculture. 1t is understood my ac-
tive duties and responsibilities will
cease at noon today.

1--WE MISS YOU, DADDY"

The following editorial printed in the Rockville,
Connecticut Journal about year Thereafter to the
editors surprise it reprinted by most of the other
papers of the state and used by highway safety Off
Gals insurance companies accident prevention organiza
tions motorists publications and by others who fight
ing the great against the toll of automobile deaths
Here it s-and any motorst will surely think twice about
taking chances after reading it:
Tuesday morning there fatal accident the
Minterburn Hill and when the medical examiner going
through the pockets of the dead a telegram
found 1t not very long, just the ordinary tenword
length but it message that would make any father
happy. 1t read: WE MISS YOU DADDY. WHEN ARE
YOU COMING HOME?
That all. 1t message sent by of the
children of the who killed He had received the
message and homeward bound The clothes minus
money but in his pocket he carried that message.
'Those who have little children, and those who
little children think of the great blow to the child
when the father did return home-DEAD.
Daddy will be missed by those children in the long
years ahead No longer will they have his support, his
earnings, and important his companionship.
eff there for people driving more
carefully the road it is that they might get acct
dent and deprive their child other child of
their Daddy.
More might be written but just let us repeat those
words: We miss you, Daddy. When are you coming

SOME LOSS CERTAIN

There is point beyond which money nothing
million dollars ought to be enough of fortune for any
When he gets beyond that start taking away from
him, by taxation That is the rethe-weath idea, in
which the President has joined That simple
enough and people stop right there in thinking about
the matter But it is well little farther There is
incentive to try to accumulate what government will
take away So will quit when they get up to certain
point in the acquisition of wealth: Their foresight their
and their tremendous energy will be lost to the
business world In the aggregate that loss would be
siderable and affect many people 1t will not do to say
ohand that there will be others to take their place, for
there is great difference in ability between Some
have it and others do not Who the loss of
taking away all inventive in the top ranks of the business
world?
One reason why don't understand better
is that they have only lifetime in which study the
subject.
With pork prices going up fast it will be that
when person is called hog he'll regard it comph-
ment.
What makes the farm relief crisis cruel in the life of
congressman is that they used to be able to stall off
such things with free garden seed.

K|NGF|SH HOPES
AGAIN To Be
GOVERNOR
Long StartIes Reporters by
Statement That He'll Seek
old Post
BATON ROUGE, La. Feb. %

H.N.SD.-"I think I'll be the
next governor of this State"
Senator Huey P. Long strolled
to the press table in the House Of
Representatives here today and
uttered these words to a group Of
startled reporters. He explained:
"The State has a million and
half cash balance in the
bank, and it is in a fine shape
financially.
ut will be a pleasure to be
governor of this State now, and
1 think I'll run. I'm going to
get some votes in this parish,
too, when / do"
Whether Senator Long, who
was governor of Louisiana before
going to the United States Sem
ate, was in earnest could not be
learned.
Speculation concerning Senator
Longs choice of a candidate to
succeed Gov. o. K. Allen has
been rife in the State several
months. State Senator Noe,
rumored to have been his most
likely candidate, announced
Wednesday night he would not
enter the race.
His reference to "this parish"
concerned East Baton Rouge
Parish, generally considered heavs
lily anti-Long.

NY, V|CEL|NKED
To BOND CRAFT

NEW YORK, Feb. % G.N.s),
Vice in New York, protected by a
powerful ring and linked to the
bail bond racket, sis worse than
before the Seabury investigation
Assistant District Attorney Mau
rice G.. Wahl charged today.
This revelation came on the
heels of the Blanshard inquiry
which, yesterday, disclosed that
the policy slip racket, with the at
tendant bail bond evil, also is far
worse than it was before the La.
Guardia administration took Of
flee.
The Blanshard hearing yeSter'
day brought out an estimate that
the annual yearly take" of the
police bankers" has mounted
to around $500,000,000 a year.
But, said Mr.. Wahl today, the
BlanShard inquiry has "just
scratched the surface" of the
bail bond racket. He declared:
"The bail bond racket fig
ures as prominently, If not
more so, in prostitution"
He asserted a we'll organized
vice ring, bossed by a "vice
car" is operating in certain
leading hotels and that bail
bondsmen are making hundreds
of thousands Of dollars working
for the ring.

Mr.. Hopkins is an ardent sup

Second, there is a possibility the

Senator Adams Cd of Colo

direct relief or made work relief.
He said:
"My present intention is to

cit is my opinion that if we.
assume the obligation of giving
a job to every man on the relief

Testifying for the eighth day In
the battle in which the Govern
ment seeks $3,089,261 as a de
ficiency levy and penalties on Mr.,
Melons 1881 income, Mr.. John
son said it generally required two
and one-half months to make out
his employers income tax return
The financier claims he overpaid
his taxes in 1881 and wants a re-
fund of $139,945.
The $328,500 stock transaction
was not a bona fide" sale, the
Government contends, but, in.
stead, part Of a scheme" Mr.,
Mellon worked out while Secretary
Of the Treasury to "evade" income
taxes.
Retained Control
BY transferring the stock from
one set of books to another, Mr..
Shearer claims the financier tech
nically surrendered possession to
his daughter but retained control.

"The taking down of those
securities so far as A. w. Mellon
goes concerned merely q book
entry at that time?"

mo market sale was put through.
He explained the certificates were
delivered to Ascolot and placed in
