Silverhazel who were marooned on a
rock.
Fifty or more persons were reported
aboard The freighter when it broke in
two on San Bernardino Island. off
the southern tip of Luzon Island.
The Governor Taft. an inter-island
steamer, rsdioed that 80 persons we're
on the rock. Others were reported
aboard the forward part of the ship.
The rock to which the survivors
escaped was turned into prison by
the powerful current which races
through the strait. rip tides, heavy
swells and high winds.
The tides repeatedly turned back
small boats from at least three steam
ers when they attempted to reach the
marooned party.

ROOSEVELT HALLS
PACT WITH CANADA
Nations JeaIousieS an d
Arms Races DepIored in
ArmiStice Talk.

While thousands stood by in rev.
erent respect in the shadow of the
Tomb Of the Unknown Soldier in Ar
lington National Cemetery President
Roosevelt today called upon the Ma
tion to go forward with all our
strength to stress and to strive for
international peace"
Honoring particularly the hundreds
OF thousands now dead who served
their country in the worlds greatest
war, the President took this occasion
to make initial announcement of a
newly reached good neighbor" agree
ment with the Dominion of Canada.
Essentially commercial, the agree
ment. he said. was arrived at after
''thoughtful discussion of our ma
tional problems" between himself and
the Canadian prime minister. Its
effect, he continued, will be to "elim-
mate disagreements and unreasonable
restrictions, and thus work to the
advantage of both Canada and the
United States.'
Included with this evidence of con-
crete progress in the cause of peace,
however, was a note of disappoint-
ment, sounded not only by President
this and similar observances of Ar
mistice day, that "the worlds gain
thus far has been small"
Il would not be frank with you,"
the President told the listening
throng, IF. I did not tell you that
the dangers that confront the future
of mankind as a whole are greater
to the world and therefore to us
than the dangers which confront the
people of the United States by and
in themselves alone.

"Jealousies between nations con-
tinue, armaments increase, national
ambitions that disturb the worlds
peace are thrust forward. Most seri-
Gus of all, international confidence

South Carolina Blue Law Jails
rs on Sunday Dancing Charge

Gov. John G. Richards made an in
tensive enforcement campaign soon
after taking Office in 1926.
The State statute, enacted in early
days and still on the books. prohibits
a long list of pastimes on Sunday
including "bear-baiting" and other
sports of bygone days.
The Richards drive was directed
mainly at golf and Sunday sales of
gasoline.
The State Supreme Court held in
q test case, however, that golf and
other sports such as polo, which were
not specifically banned by the statute,
might be played on Sunday. The
campaign, hindered by injunctions,

KINGSFORD.SMITH

Royal Air Force Bombers to Skim
Low Over Islands and Bay
of Bengal.
By the Associated Press.

SINGAPORE, Straits Settlements,
November 11-Another fleet of Royal
Air Force bombers roared into the air
today, resuming with renewed vigor
the search for Sir Charles Kingsford-
Smith, missing three days on prof.
ected England-Australia flight.
The pilots carried instructions to
skim low over every island and the
coast line of the Western Malay Pen
insula, as well as a wide strip of the
Bay of Bengal between Rangoon,
South Burma, and Victoria Point.
C. James Melrose. who last saw the
monoplane in which Kingsford-Smith
and his copilot, Tom Pethybridge,
were flying over the Bay of Bengal
early Friday, flew again to the spot
where he saw the pilots bucking a
raging monsoon.
Melrose expressed belief that Kings

TAXES
DEFENDED BY j. s.
Supreme Court Held With.
out Power to Restrain As
SeSSment or Collection.

In a challenge to the State of
Georgia's attempt to force an imme-
diate test of the constitutionality of
the Bankhead cotton control act, the
Government today held the Supreme
Court IS without power to restrain as
seSsment or collection of the A. A. A.
processing taxes.
Since the enactment of the agricul-
tural adjustment and Bankhead laws.
however, more than 700 lower courts
have issued injunctionS despite the
Governments argument.
Grounds Of Objection.
The Government also voiced objec-
ton to the suit brought by Gov. Tai
madge on the ground that:
The United States may not be sued
without its consent, and the Govern
ment has not consented to be sued.
The Georgia suit is directed against
the Secretary of the Treasury and
other Federal officers and not against
the Government by name.
At the same time. eight Southern
rice millers joined in another attack
on the constitutionality Of the ad-
justment act and asked the high
tribunal for injunctions to restrain
collection of processing taxes on rice.
Justice CardoZo received the millers
petitions, previously refused by the
Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals and the
Federal District Court at New Or
leans.
A total of 65 cases was before the
court as it reconvened after a two
week recess.
Foremost among these will be
ruling on request by James Walter
Carter. president of the Carter Coal
Co., for a temporary injunction to pre-
vent assessment of a tax imposed by
the Guffey bituminous coal bill.
twenty-five cases have been argued
and are ready for final decision, and
the court may announce whether it
will pass on the decisions of lower
tribunals in % cases. Twelve mo-
tions also are pending.
Rulings Made.
Soon after it met today the court
made these rulings:
Set aside by six to three a ruling
by the Commissioner of Internal Rev.
enue under which the Government
assessed $120,169 of taxes in six cases.
The question was whether profits from
sale of stock received as gift were
subject to Federal taxes as capital
net gain or as ordinary income.
Unanimously affirmed decision by
the District Court of Appeals the Gov
ernment cannot tax stock left by Mrs.
Irene C. Helmholz of Sherwood, Wis,
who died in 1927. The United States
loses a potential s4.847 900 as result.
Some time during the week, the
court will receive petition from
Bruno Richard Hauptmann asking it
to pass on his conviction of kidnapping
and numbering the Lindbergh baby.
The highest New Jersey court has
unanimously upheld the conviction of
Hauptmann, who must file his appeal
before Friday.
Guffey Act Attacked.
Carter, a West Virginia and Mary
land coal producer. attacked the
validity of the Guffey act. which eS-
tablishes little N R. A." to regulate
the soft coal industry, and asked the
court to enjoin collection of the IS
per cent tax on production until
ruling has been given on the consti-
tutionality of the legislation.
The District Supreme Court is now
trying the suit brought by Carter to
test the validity of the law. He asked

PreUent. Rickets

Rickets also may attack the
pelvic bones in the lower part
of the trunk, making them un-
duly narrow. Here is one Of
the gravest and most far-reach-
ing after-effects of not giving
enough Vitamin D to the little
baby. If the child is a girl
and the pelvic bones are thus
narrowed, when she herself
grows up and desires a baby
she will find that motherhood
has been made extremely diff
ficult, if not impossible.
Here are a few-not by any
means all-of the tragic conse-
quences traceable to the lack of
Q single vitamin in baby's diet!
One is reminded of the old
rhyme, For the want of a nail
the shoe was lost, for the want
of a shoe the horse was lost,
for the want of a horse the
rider was lost, for the want Of
q rider the battle was lost, for
the want of a battle the king
dom was loSt-and all for the
want of a horseshoe nail"

Is so important that I shall

FeLUer BOW-Iegs

It is not only the chance Of
survival, but the general health
and strength of babies and
little children which have i'm
proved so much since doctors
and mothers became vitamin
conscious!
How few bow-legged children
one sees today, by comparison
with the number in evidence
almost anywhere a few genera
tions ago! Various explanations
used to be given for this most
unfortunate condition as for
instance that a fat child's
weight bowed the little bones
when the youngster first learned
to walk.
Now we know that bow.legs
are one of the end-productS Of
rickets and that ricketts, is a
disease caused by insufficient
sunlight and by an undersupply
Of Vitamin D.
It's absence from the diet and
the consequent development of
rickets-which can be present
before the mother detects any
ailment - sometimes results in
deformity of chest bones as
well as leg bones. When the
upper part of the trunk is NAL
formed seriously the lungs do
not have room to expand and
q bad case of bronchitis or
even Of pneumonia may result.
