LOS ANGELES, June 25.-Reports
that a woman was involved in the
Navy spy case" were dissipated to-
day by Federal officers who prepared
for an immediate trial of an Amer
ican charged with conSpiring to fur
nish naval information to the ia
panese government.
Harry Thomas Thompson, former
yeoman, first class. in the United
States Navy, will be arraigned in Fed
eral court here Monday ON a charge
Of 19 overt acts violating the espion-
age act in the sale of confidential
naval information to an agent in
Japan.
japanese Man Named.
Named last night in the indictment
against Thompson Is ToShio Miyazaki,
who, the indictment charges, is lieu
tenant commander in the Imperial
Japanese Army. Federal agents say he
left the United States before the In
vestigation began.
Clude Thomas, deputy United States
district attorney, said only these two
men are involved. Reports circulated
about a japanese woman in the case
he said, hinged upon a comment by
Thompson that he knew a japanese
waitress. and investigation disclosed
this had no bearing on the case.
Thompson now Is serving county
jail sentence for illegally wearing a
naval officers uniform.
Charges Read Like Fiction.
The allegations contained in the
indictment read like the plot Of
familiar espionage fiction. They have
the full complement of routine ele-
ments, involving two flrst-class pow
ers, an Oriental savant, East and West
meeting in illicit and mutually profit
able alliance.
Thompson, the indictment charged
began selling his country's naval
secrets on August 26, 1884, when he
boarded the U. S. s. Brooks at Sar
Diego. With this episode as opening
chapter, the indictment continued
with this story:
Dressed as a Navy officer. Thomp-
son went aboard United States war
ships at San Pedro and San Diego and
obtained assorted documents-"code
books, signal books, photographs, blue.
prints, plans, maps, models . . and
information relating to the national
defense"
Miya1aki, described in the indiet-
ment as one time honor student al
Stanford University, met Thompson
on several occasions, in San Pedro
and Los Angeles. and paid him fol
naval information.
The indictment said specifically that
on November 26, 1884, Miyazaki in.
formed Thompson by letter that his
monthly salary would be sent mot
later than the first Of each month,
and requested him to send him thu
schedule of force tactics which were
scheduled to begin less than two weeks
later.
A gunnery school book and Navy
schedule of employment were among
numerous documents Thompson sold
to Miyazaki, the jury alleged.
The information, according to the
indictment, was ito be used to the

The vote of Representative John J..
O'Connor Of New York against the
majority rule was o surprise, partic-
ularly as his delegation had Endorsed
the proposed change. His vote brought
applause from Southerners. O'Connor
probably will be candidate for Speaker
of the House If the Democrats elect
O majority of that body next No
vember. He has acted as floor leader
for the Democrats since the death of
the late Speaker Byrns.
Committee Named.
The Rules Committee appointed a
subcommittee, on motion of Senator
Tydings of Maryland, to consider the
question of recommending to the DEM
ocratic National Committee that in
the call for the next Democratic Ma
tional Convention representation of
the States in the convention be in
creased for those States which vote
strongly Democratic. The fight for
increased representation for the typi-
cally Democratic States delayed the
report of the Rules Committee to the
convention. The subcommittee is to
report back to the full committee at
3 o'clock.
It is the hope of the Rules Com
mittee that it will be able to deal
with this matter, insisted upon by
Southern delegates, effectively and, re-
port to the convention when it meets
at 8 pm, daylight time tonight.
The debate which preceded the
vote to abrogate the two-thirds rule
In the Rules Committee today found
Senator Bennett Clark Of Missouri,
chairman of the committee, strongly
urging the adoption of a majority
rule. He insisted that it was Demo-
cratic in principle, and that the DEM
ocratic party was a national party,
not sectional.
Representative Cox Of Georgia, op-
posing the campaign in the rules,
asked Clark if he believed in the
majority decisions" Of the Supreme
Court about which a great deal has
been said by the Democratic orators
at the convention.
Clark replied that he could see no
connection with the matter under con-
sideration. He argued that every po-
litical function of the major parties
was conducted by majority rule except
the nomination by the Democrats OF
q President and Vice President under
the old conditions.

slider the proposal for changing the

1t is believed here 10 st. Croix that
if Governor Cramer would press the CUES
top of che huge deficit in our municipal
funds until Washington understands
that it is no fault of the people that
the administration has been financially
trapped the Congress will understand
and do what is right.
If the hard facts be brought 10 Mr..
Ickes, even he would admit that the
sudden change in the industrial system

bankrupt condition of the islands t.ea-
sury.
Judging from Mr.. Ickes' uttsrsness
he has absolutely no grasp of conditions
in st. Croix. He has motorsd around
and seen fields. factories and buildings,
bat those are dumb things. We must
also take into account the fact that Mr..
Ickss would prefer to listen to
the Governor and to be advised by him.
That his ears are not inclined towards
the islanders was demonstrated when he
visited St. Crolx. Instead of holding
conference with the Council he gave q
q speech enumerating the wonderful
things that were being done for the ia
land. At press conference later in the
day he was clearly not 10 a mood for
conference, kOur conclusion therefore
must be that he came to 'us with fixed
opinions and since he heard nothing

Manners
of the
Moment

WE HAVE great respect for shoe
salesmen. Their patience Is
infinite. They are able to listen to
the histories of feminine foot ailments
and even to enter into discussions Of
feminine love lives without falling
asleep. OF course we could wish that
they also had the ability to At q foot
with o comfortable shoe, but that Is .
small thing compared to their other
virtues.
But one Of these days their pa
tience is going to be tried, once too
often, and they will break, en- masse,
under the strain. It would be q ter.
rible thing to have 10000, 900 lunatic
shoe salesmen loose in the country.
So we have drawn up several rules to
be followed by women buying shoes.
1. Don't try on more than i've
pairs in one store.
2. Don't tell about the very un-
usual length Of your toes more than
once to the same salesman.
s. II he has told you what beau-
tiful foot you have once, don't try
to make him say 1t again.
4. Don't 60 into details about the
party to which you are wearing the
new shoes.

Lip Rouge
Tricks and
Brow Pencil
Making the Most of
Mouth and
Eyes.
BY ELSIE PIERCE.

YESTERDAY we saw how the sp-
plication Of rouge can make the
face seem wider or longer. Today let
US study little tricks that seem to
make the mouth and eyes a bit diff
ferent In. shape from what they really
are.
In applying lipstick, always use it
on the upper lip first. Apply it with
one sweeping movement from center
10 corner, then from center to other
corner. Open your mouth when ap-
plying lipstick and apply the color
well inside your lips so that there
will be no line of demarkation when
you open your mouth in speech or In
smile. Nothing is more telling and
less becoming from a makeup artists
point of view than that obvious Zip
line Just inside the mouth where
ltpstick ends. Having applied lip
rouge to the upper lip. press both
lips together. AS a general rule there
should be enough lip rouge imprinted
on lower lip from compressing the
lips.
Suppose your lips are very thin and
give your face hard. ungenerous
look. Apply lip rouge generously and
II you can do 1t smoothly extend the
lip line a little so that the lips look
wider. You can also extend the low
er lip line a little, at the center II
this. too, is very thin.
For too straight lips an imaginary
cupid's bow can be visualized and
then filled in with lip rouge. This
has to be done carefully so as not to
be too obvious. Also apply lip rouge
generously, particularly on lower lip
and extend the lower lip line little
by deepening the curve at the center
below the natural outline.
II the mouth is too long merely
carry the deepest color within the
natural outline-that Is, stop before
you ge to the corners.
Likewise, If the lips are too thick
do not color to the upper and lower
outline but confne the color within
the natural outline.
Occasionally we see a mouth that
is much too small and out of proper.
ton to the rest Of the face. Here
lpstick should be used to the very
edges and a little beyond these edges
TO make the mouth seem larger and
wider.
The eyes have been called the most
important facial feature Here, too.
you can make them look like what
they amt" Suppose your eyes are
very deep set. Your eyeshadow should
be confined to the outer half Of each
hd-from about the center out to
the corner. Then pencil with an
eyebrow pencil from the center OUT
ward to corner, blending into
shadow.
For very small eyes, the simple
trick Of penciling under the lower lid
this has to be done very carefully.
Draw q fine line with eyebrow pencil.
then soften with fngertips. Use mas.
cara on lashes TO define them.
