Cropping deeply into my over

slumber and found myself in a
blackened wilderness. Gradually
and steadily 7 felt myself being
drawn into a maelstrom and being

head upon the office dictionary
brought me speedily out of my
chaotic condition and, still dizzy,

OF course the first thing that
hit me between the eyes was the

with my tongue in my cheek that

MATSUDA EN- ROUTE HERE.
japanese Questioned on Photo making
Released i'm Florida.

ST. PETERSBURG. Fla. January 2
(P).-A man who said he was Yoshio
Matsuda, Japanese naval officer taken
into custody here when he was dis
covered mixing photographs of the
water front, left today by train. He
bought ticket to New York.
As he boarded the train. Matsuda
said he would stop en- route at WASH
ington to visit the Japanese Embassy.
S. B. Hopkins, immigration officer
at Tampa, said the japanese never
had been officially in the custody of
his department, but had remained
willingly in the company of an agent
until he had been questioned to estab-
lish the legality of his entry into this
country.
Matsuda spent last night at the
home of E. L. Roux, the immigration
agent here, and had telephone con-
versation with the japanese Embassy
at Washington this morning.
Chief of Detectives E. E. Lipphard
declared the man said he held the
rank of a student commander and
had taken pictures in several Ameri-
can cities since coming to this country
about year ago.
Lipphard quoted the man as saying
he was in the pay of the japanese
Navy, had sent his films to New York
for printing and relay to Japan. and
had purchased about million dollars
worth of machinery in this country
for his government.

There Is no shortage of ideas among
the incoming members of the House.
More than $1,000 bills have been pre-
pared for introduction there. This is
not a record, but about average.
You do not need to worry very
much about them because many will
never gain the attention of a one-line
notice in the home town paper of the
Representative who proposes them. A
majority of them are private relief
bills for voters back home. Repre-
sentatives usually introduce so many
Of them that, after a few weeks, they
forget which ones are theirs.
Familiar Faces Lost.
There are a lot of familiar faces
missing from the assembling hordes
of legislators, men with good public
records who were swamped by the
new political surge last election day
or who decided politics was not worth
the effort. Among them are the out
standing constitutional lawyer of the
House, James Beck; ex-senator Dill
of Washington, the expert radio leg
islator; playful Fred Britten Of Chi
cago, Ross Collins of Mississippi,
smart Loring Black of New York, Nc
Clintic of Oklahoma, Clyde Kelly of
Pittsburgh, brilliant Senator David
Reed and level-headed Walcott of
Connecticut. Most of these men
would tell you privately today that a
man who devotes his life to politics is
fool.
Yet there are many bright, shiny
faces here to take their places, faces
eager to be nationally familiar. Some
Of them will be, but most will not.

METAL FRAGMENT
SOLE DEATH CLUE
Lost" Blasting Cap in Coal Seen
Possible Cause of Ex-
plosion.

BY the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, January "A search
for the cause of the death Of Miss
Katherine Briscoe, 51-year-old Balti-
more society woman, centered today
in a mysterious metal fragment, be-
lieved to be a piece of miners de-
tonating cap. An intensive study OF
the metal was planned by chemists
and police investigators with DR.. Rob-
ert w. Wood of the Johns Hopkins
University, ballistics expert, looking
on.
Miss Briscoe was fatally wounded
Monday when the fragment-scarcely
larger than a pea-tore into her lung
as she was stoking the furnace in the
cellar of her home in fashionable
residential district here.
DR.. Wood has advanced the theory
that the bit of metal was part of a
decorating cap exploded by the heat
of the furnace. The scientist said this
appeared to him to be the most prob
able solution of the mystery.
His idea, he said, was that the ex-
plosive device was accidentally left
in a shipment of coal and was in a
shovelful of the fuel Miss Briscoe
tossed on the flames.

the department and told Puleston that
Matsuda was lieutenant commander
in the Japanese Navy and was at
tached to the New York office.
Secretary Swanson said he had re-
ceived no report. but that I'VE object
to them taking pictures of our ships,
especially the Trenton"
The Trenton is a 7.5O0-ton cruiser
now in the harbor at ST. Petersburg.
Swanson said no complaint had
been made to the State Department,
and would not, unless formal charges
were brought.
He described the attaches visit as
for information" and in reply to a
question said: Il wouldn't like to say
whether it was an apology"

MISSISSIPPI PLAN
FORPOWER URGED
Shipstead to Introduce Bill
on Larger Scale Tro1
T. v. A.

The Upper Mississippi Valley Au-
thority." with powers as wide or wider
than those Of the Tennessee Valley
Authority, is pro. a bill which
Senator Shipstea-, .iner-Labor, Of
Minnesota will introduce in the
Senate.
The Minnesota Senator Is convinced
that great good may be accomplished
for the rural population Of the coun-
try through bringing electricity to
thousands Of farms at prices low
enough to make possible the use of
this power and light. His bill is de-
signed to bring this about in the great
area of the Upper Mississippi River
Basin.
Seeks Board Of Three.
Shipstead proposes in his bill that
the Upper Mississippi Valley Author
ity be composed Of board Of three,
appointed by the President and con-
flrmed by the Senate. They would
be appointed without regard to poll
tics and on merit alone. 1t is eSpe-
cially provided that no member of
the board shall have any financial
interest in any public utility corpora
ton engaged in distributing and SELL
ing power, and that no one would be
appointed to the board who does not
have a belief in "the feasibility and
wisdom of this act" The salaries to
be paid are $4,000.
The general purposes of the pro-
posed law are to improve the nav
liability and to provide for the food
control Of the Upper Mississippi River,
to provide for reforestation and the
use of marginal lands in, and for the
agricultural development of, the Upper
Mississippi River Basin: to provide for
the water level. and for the develop
ment OF electrical power in the Upper
Mississippi River Basin.
Power Given Board.
The board is given the power to
acquire land, construct dams, reser-
voirs. power houses, etc, along the
Upper Mississippi or any Of its tribu-
taries. 1t is to have the power to con-
struct or rent transmission lines for
power. And the board is further au-
thorized Ito produce. transmit and
sell electric power. 1t is to operate
laboratories and experimental plants
and to undertake experiments in the
distribution of electricity to farm or
ganizations. municipal corporations,
States and subdivisions Of States.
The board is also authorized to sup
ply water for domestic purposes to
States. counties. municipalities and
farm organizations.
Should Senator Shipstead's plan for
the Upper Mississippi Valley Authority
be carried into effect by the passage
of his bill, another link in the admin
istration's chain of operations to bring
cheaper electricity to the people will
have been forged.

unequivocal enunciation O. the policy
of the Legislature in respect of en-

The letter was one of series writ

ing States wishing to avail themselves
of P. w. A. lending 1t differed from
the others in that it suggested 'clari-
fication" of legislation.
The P. w. A. has held up payments
on some 60 Louisiana projects follow
ing the enactment in November of
law providing for a two-year mora
torium on public and private debts

In Baton Rouge, Gov. Allen said
he knew nothing about letter from
the President.
The only letter I got" he said,
"was after the Legislature. and was
about only one bill, which was
amended"
Relations Later Strained.
Long backed Roo5evelt in 1882. but
later relations became strained. FED
eral patronage has gone to the die
tator's foes in Louisiana, and Long
has hurled some sharp remarks to-
ward the White House.
In letters to other Governors, Whlcn

department to State Legislatures in
drafting appropriate legislation for
Government grants, the President hao
suggested:
Relaxation of statutory limitations
on taxing power to pay debts.

Creation of municipal authorities
without the power to tax. but with
permission to issue bonds payable
