Morgan on Leisure Class"
Morgan engaged in philoSopbic
conversation with newspaper men late
yesterday, after telling the committee
that destruction of the Leisure class
would result in destruction of civiliza-

The financier explained to reporters
he meant by leisure class" any family
able to employ maid, not the wealthy
people "at the top" His remark to
the committee was during a discussion
Of advisability of taxing heavily profits
Of those who benefit by war trade.
Morgan told the committee taxation
on profits today has about reached its
limits, unless you broaden the base
He declared taxation affecting only q
few Is unsound.

1t was in response to this observation
that Morgan made his comment about
the leisure class.
Asked by reporters to define leisure
class" Morgan said after the hearing
he is of the opinion that civilization
is not represented in a family in which
the mother of the house has to do all
the cooking and washing and raising
Of her family. without help.
That doesn't leave her much time
to educate her children and be

The warrants naming Mrs. Maryon

The action ended a legal tangle
that developed when the heiress re-

Mrs. Hewitt is in the East, but is
willing and desires as soon as she is
physically able, to meet and disprove
all the malicious charges against her.

Governor and the Republican candi-
date for Governor In 1884. Knox Is
speaking tonight in Vincennes, Ind,
and tomorrow at 2:15 pm. in Gin
cinnati.
There are several courses open to
Knox in Ohio. He may go into the
presidential preference primary. He
may enter a slate of eight candidates
for delegates at large to the national
convention. He may enter slate Of
district delegates, or he may enter q
slate that will cover both delegates at
large and district delegates. His
strategy will develop later.
Borah's Act Held Challenge.
Borah's entry into the Ohio fight, to
be followed by a campaign in the
State, is regarded as his challenge to
the more conservative Republican
forces intent upon sending as many
uninstructed or "favorite-son" pledged
delegations to the national convention
as possible.
Already it has been announced that
Borah will be entered in the Wisconsin
presidential preference primary. He
Is expected to be entered In New York,
Oregon. West Virginia and in Illinois,
In one way or another. But even so,
rumors have been kept afloat that the
Idaho Senator was not really a con-
tender. but merely seeking to line up
delegates ready to fight for a liberal
platform and liberal nominee. His
declaration that he would enter Ohio,
made tentatively some time ago, was
discounted in some quarters, but his
statement last night apparently has
removed all doubt and cleared the at
mospbere.
The Borah announcement was made
after q conference lasting four hours.
In it were the following Ohio Repub-
licans: Former Senator McCulloch,
Daniel e. Morgan. former city man
ager of Cleveland; John S. Knight,
publisher of the Akron Beacon
journal; C. Nelson Sparks. former
mayor of Akron, and Max Myerovich,
chairman of the Board of Elections Of
Mahoning County, Ohio.
Borah's brief statement follows:
After a thorough survey Of the
Ohio situation, I am convinced that
the people of that State should be
given an opportunity to express their
choice In the presidential primary of
May IL. Under the so-called favorite
son plan this privilege is denied them.

tempted robbery on Mrs Harry Payne

home.
Sergt. Thomas Hennessy Of the Old

ter, said the two men said they were

This is a stickup."
Mrs. johnson screamed, Grimm said,
and the men fed.

alarm to ARREST two men, one tall,
one short, riding in auto, for attempted
holdup in Old Westbury."

Two nations are particularly inter-
ested in preventing the Danubiar
states from drifting toward their in
evitable goal-Germany.
These nations are Italy and
France. Until last year the Franco
italian riualry made it impossible
to accomplish the confederation.
When France had all plans care
fully 1oorked out, Italy stepped in
and torpedoed them. When Italy
thought that everything i0as ready,
France returned the compliment.
Last Spring an agreement between
the two rivals for supremacy in Gen.
tral Europe was finally reached at
Stressa.
The League of Nations, however,
killed that understanding by its ada
mant attitude in the Italian-Ethiopian
conflict. Italy, compelled to wage a
long war in East Africa and menaced
by France and Great Britain in the
Mediterranean. has necessarily lost
much of its interest in the Danubian
confederation.
Now Italy has to be counted out as
defender of the Danubian states
from Germany's "drang mach Osten."
worried over the possibility of the
Relch's expansion, France is trying
again to consolidate the Central and
Southeastern European state into q
unit. Austria is the key state. Here
to1ore 1t obeyed blindly Mussolinis q
orders. Its dictator, Prince Won Star
nemnerg, was drawing heavily on II
Duces treasury. Now the remittances
are less frequent, Austria is still un-
DER Italian influence, but Won Star
nemoerg is looking toward another
ricn aunt. And, like most of the DAN
unian states, he thinks that France
might come across.
In London, soon after the burial nj
King George, the rulers of the Dan
ubian states met with Foreign Min
lsters Flandin and Eden. Carol of
Rumania, Prince Paul, the regent of
Yugoslavia; Boris of Bulgaria. Star
hemberg of Austria got into a huddle
They admitted that the German
menace was great and devised means
to dam the Reich's overflow toward
the Danubian Valley and the Black
Sea. In London the rulers adopted
enthusiastically the slogan, "One for
all and all for one" But when they
got home, they discovered that things
were not so easy, and the enthusiasm
shown in London is now somewhat
dampened.
