TO United States Senators Frederick

Progressive party.
Mr.. Zahnd, who entertains high
hopes of placing his party on the

pressed his confidence that the Ma

Party officials have indicated that
their presidential candidate would
be Senator Huey Pierce Long but
other party leaders are inclined to
support Mr.. Zahnd as the party's
candidate.

Guard Called Out to Halt
Further Dynamiting in
Mississippi.

By rrifed Prose
GREENWOOD. Miss, March 21-
Material guardsmen moved into the
flooded Mississippi delta today to
halt dynamiting Of levies by mobs
OF farmers.
A 42-fOot hole was blasted in the
Tsllahatchie River levee last night
after 100 farmers descended on
guards. one man was injured in a
free-for-all fight. Acting Sheriff
Sam Clark OF Lehore County ap-
paled 70 Gov. NJ. S. Conner for
troops.
Three other dynamitings we're re-
ported. one at Phillips and two
near GlendOre. other sections of
the levee we're believed in danger.
Threats Of dynamiting arise each
year during spring floods as farm
ers frequently cross the river and
blast out levees on the side opposite
their ands, thus saving their own
homes and crops.
Adjt. Gen Thomas GraySOn left

about 300.
The YazOO River also was on a
rampage and j.le flood menace was
increasing in the delta. A squad Of
300 cOnvicts worked through the
night piling sandbags on weaken
ing levees. Farmers armed with
shOtguns we're on guard to pre-
vent dynamiting.
The food crest was approaching
in tributaries Of the Mississippi in
Tennessee and Arkansas. Levees on
the St. Francis and White Rivers
were expected TO hold, but adequate
boats we're available TO move in
habitants in an emergency.
Scattered relief camps housed
more than 5000 refugees as Red
Cross workers took every pre-
caution to prevent disease. An
outbreak Of pneumonia was feared,
with several cases reported.

War Claim Recovery Contract
Voided as Lobbying Agreement

Holding employment Of four Ameri-
can lawyers by the Gesellschaft Fur
Drahtlose Telegraphie of Berlin, Ger
many. to press its claim for recov-
cry of s10,OO0,000 of property seized
by the United States during the
World War, to have constituted a
lobbying contract, the District Court
of Appeals today reversed a District
Supreme Court judgment granting the
attorneys s250,0O0 fee.
The court reaffirmed its position
that a contract for employment of a
lobbyist is invalid If it permits the
exercise of improper influence on leg
islators, even though no improper
acts actually are committed.
It was found there existed no legal
basis for the recovery Until 1928, six
years after the attorneys were EN-
ployed, when the settlement of war
claims act was passed.
The appeal was from a judgment
obtained in District Supreme Court
by John Wilson Brown, Sd, New
York attorney, on behalf of himself
and three associates, against the
German communications firm, which
obtained s5,000,000 settlement
against the United States Government
for the wartime property seizure.
Holding public policy necessitates

to the present there is absolutely no
evidence that such injuries have any
thing to do either with the maniac
Oppressive or dementia praecox types
of psychoses. These are two of the
most frequently encountered in courts
DR.. Myerson cited several cases
where slight physical injury was sus-
tanned by the patient with the develop
ment of mental illness some time later.
It is unreasonable to assume, he said,
that relationship existed between the
injury and the subsequent psychosis.
One example was that of woman
who, in eating piece Of pie, sustained
a slight abrasion of the gum from a
small tack in the pie. She entered a
mental hospital some months later
and two eminent psychiatrists testi-
fed that the bite into the tack was
the cause Of the illness.
While such testimony tends to throw
psychiatrists into disrepute, DR.. Myer-
son said, there is probably some re-
lationship between Injuries and mental
breakdowns-particularly in cases Of
the maniac Oppressive psychosis-if
the event Is serious and of great
emotional significance and the mental
symptoms appear in a short time.
Examination of the cerebro-spinal
fluid of more than 800 epileptics failed
to reveal any marked abnormalities, It
was reported by DR.. II. Houston Mer-
ritt and DR.. William J. Lennax OF

for procuring legislation" the court
said lobbying contracts are illegal
especially where the legislation is
remedial and provides for the asser-
tion of claims against the Govern
ment and the contract is for con-
tingent portion of a claim that may
be given a legal status through success
in securing the legislation"
The case arose out of a contract be-
tween the German firm and Brown
and Alfred Frankenthaler, another
New York attorney, in which the law
yers were authorized in broad, un-
restricted terms to press the war claim
through the alien property custodian
or any other division of the United
States Government.
Two other attorneys, George Frank
enthaler of New York and Alfred K.
Nippert of Cincinnati, Ohio. later were
associated in the case. Brown brought
suit, his three associates assigning
their rights to him, alleging the Ger
man company had terminated the
contract after the $5.000,000 claim
had been established under the war
claims act and that no adequate fee
was paid.
Property seized during the war con-
sisted of capital stock in the Atlantic
Communications Co. and the Patents
Exploitatio Co., both of New York.

STUDENTS ADVISED
AGAINST ROAMING
Volunteer Welfare Worker Ad-
dresses Two School Groups
on Hardships.

Harry W. Butz. volunteer welfare
worker, who has come to Washington
after a 6,000-mile hitch-hike through
20 States to work among homeless
boys and girls ION the road" ad-
dressed the students at two Wash
ington high schools today in an ef-
fort to halt any impulses the youths
may possess to strike out for them
selves.
Butz had requested Dr. Stephen z.
Kramer. first assistant superintendent
of schools, TO work out schedule
Of such addresses for him in the high
school system, but DR.. Kramer de-
clined. Acting on his own arrange
ments, he visited Mckinley High and
Langley Junior High School today,
delivering two addresses at the latter.
Butz set out with the backing Of
112 Hi-Y Clubs, composed of high
school boys in the Y. M. C. A., to
try to send home the wandering boys.
His report of his last trip-his third
says he contacted $40 runaway and
wayward boys and 16 girls. Out Of
the group he succeeded in inducing
110 to return to their homes. In
the same lot he encountered So boys
he classed as extremely tough" and
future Dillingers."
Butz, who is 65 and little more
than feet tall, walked, thumbed
rides and rode freight trains in order
to reach the youngsters he hoped to
help. Meanwhile he lived chiefly in
Y. M. C. A. dormitories or public
flop houses.
He has scheduled two more school
addresses, one at Terrell Junior High
School tomorrow morning and an
other at Powell Junior High We'd
nesday. He expects to schedule other
such talks while he is here.

POLICE COURT TO HAVE
THREE PANELS DAILY

Judges and prosecutors at Police
Court have determined to bring all
jury cases up to date, and consequently
there will be three jury panels used
daily. beginning tomorrow morning.
While one judge is assigned perma-
nently to the trial of jury cases and
the other judges have been helping
out as much as they can with the
limited panel available, the trial Of
various cases involving both major
and minor offenses must be speeded
up in order to avoid such congestion
as resulted from the old prohibition
era.
The three panels will be used con-
tinuouSly until every case Is brought
up to date. Particular emphasis Is
laid by members of the assistant
corporation counsel's Office in Police
Court to the necessity of dispensing
with the large number of traffic cases
for which jury trials have been de-
manded.

OFFICIALS DISCUSS
SHRINE DISPUTE
Negotiations Under Way to
Solve Problems of Parade
Stands on Avenue.

Negotiations were under way today
to solve the Shrine stands dispute, in
volving the erection Of seats on the
north side of Pennsylvania avenue for
three spectacular parades during the
Shrine imperial conclave here June
9 to IS.
Merchants had objected to the
Shrine Convention Committee erect
ing stands in front of their places Of
business on the north side of the Ave-
nue.. District Commissioners took the
position the Shrine could erect seats
there. provided the merchants did not
object. But the merchants objected.
Robert p Smith, director general
Of the Shrine Convention Committee.
after this mornings negotiations, said
the difficulty has not been settled
finally, but he hoped negotiations
later this afternoon would be success
full.
Smith intimated there now were
prospects for keeping the three great
parades on Pennsylvania avenue,
where they were originally intended
to be staged, although it previously
had appeared that the merchants
protest would force the Shrine to
transfer their spectacles to the Monu-
ment lot at Fifteenth street.
If the proposed Shrine stands on
the north side Of the avenue were
abandoned and attempts were made
to seat the crowds entirely on the
south side, this would present an ex-
tremely difficult traffic problem Of
getting people across the avenue,
particularly late arrivals who came
after the parade started, it was ex-
planned.
Shrine leaders were understood to
be willing today to offer to reduce the
size of their stands along the north
side of the Avenue, which originally
were to extend into the street and
back over the sidewalk, leaving a IL
foot interval between the back OF the
stands and the buildings.
Merchants were hoping, 1t was un-
derstood, to eliminate the Shrine
stands, so they could use the front
of their own buildings, to view the
parade. Several applications had been
made for permits to construct private
stands In show windows, and on roof
tops along the. north side Of the
Avenue. Shrine leaders object to this.
Should the Shrine fail to reach a
compromise with the merchants, there
were indications that perhaps more
space might be given the organization
for additional stands on the south
side of the Avenue, owned by the
Government, and on the west side of
Fifteenth street near the Treasury
Dpartment from Treasury place to
Pennsylvania avenue on the north.
A meeting between Shrine leaders,
and q committee of District officials
was scheduled for today at the District
Building, to attempt to iron out the
differences.
