FOUR FACE ARREST
IN HAMMER ATTACK
Danville, Ill, Police Chief Charges
They Failed to Warn
Victim.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated PreSS-
DANVILLE, Ill, February 15-Chiei
Of Police Richard johnson said to-
night he was considering the arrest
of four more persons In connection
with the hammer attack on Everett
Bates, assistant high school principal,
yesterday.
johnson said at least that many
persons knew of the alleged plan of
Donald Cunningham. 16-year-old
sophomore, to beat Bates in retalia-
tion for reprimands because of tardi-
ness, but they failed to warn either
Bates or the police. Cunningham
was accused of attacking Bates as he
sat at his desk.
Albert Halls, gasoline station own
er, and Tony McGoley were arrested
today and charged with planning an
escape for Cunningham. Halls. al
legged to have advised the youth to
flee after he learned of the beating,
was later released under $1,000 bail.
Cunningham waived hearing on a
charge Of assault With intent to kill
before Police Magistrate j. W. Brace
well and was held in $4,000 bond
to await grand jury action.
johnson said tonight Bates condi-
ton was serious.
The chief said Cunningham had
confessed the attack and had also
admitted planning to kill Russell Duff
I'M. principal of the high school, and
Don Schoolcraft. another assistant
principal.

NEW YORK, February 15.-"You
know" said J. P. Morgan the other
day, I'm IS. I won't last much
| longer"
It was a matter of fact statement,
calm acknowledgment that time
races as swiftly for the rich man as
the poor. 1t directed attention to the
paradox that in those IS years ]. P.
Morgan has become at once one Of
the best and at the same time one of
the least known Of Americans.
Spoken of often, he spoke seldom.
Each Christmas he gathered his
grandchildren beside him and read to
them-from the original Dickens
manuscript-the Christmas Carol"
Each year on his Long Island estate
he grew prize winning blooms. He
hunted in Scotland. sailed the seven
seas in his yacht.
Through it all he carried on, re-
emphasized a tradition-the tradition
that bankers shouldn't talk for publi-
catibn.
-4s Others Adopt Policy.
His father was never one to talk
Other financiers have adopted the
same policy of muteness-J. P. Nor
gan most Of all. ~
!, In the early weeks Of this year the
head of Morgan & Co. has said more
publicly than perhaps IN all the years
before. That has been because of the
Senate's munitions inquiry.
It was in Washington that he cor
rected statement that money is the
root of all evil"
THE Bible does not say that" the
banker commented. 1T says the love
of money is the root of all evil"
At that Washington hearing it was
possible to glimpse something of the
Morgan personality that previously had
been hidden.
What does he think of war?
mo one could hate war more than
l." he told the Senate Munitions In
vestigating Committee, but even with
that hatred, was proud Of my coun-
try when the President on April 2,
1917, asked Congress to declare q
state of war"
Blamed War on Germany.
There are some things 1t is better
to die for than live without. "A ma
tion's self-respect and independence
are two of them . ."
Germany drove the United States
into the war by a series Of insults and
injuries"

ties in the light Of postwar events,
the banker said:
Gentlemen, it seems to me that
YOU are committing the common log
ical fallacy Of saying 'Afterward, and
therefore because Of
Should Legislate for Masses.
Again he said:
1T Is no good to legislate for 20
or 30 people. What we want to do
is legislate for 20 or 30 million"
And on another occasion:
American bankers have no de-
sire to make any political sugges-
tions, much less to enforce any politi-
cal views"
On March "a. 1882. Morgan made
one Of his rare public talks six
minute address over the radio. II
was then that he suggested the block
aid" plan of relief-a plan IN which
each block sought to take care of its
own unfortunate.
That speech was an exception. In
variably his reply to inquirers is:
Nothing to say"
Evening star., 1936-02-16

people, you don't help to recommend
it to them by clubbing them on the
head"
Believes i'm Leisure.
On another occasion 1t was sug-
gested that industry should seek to
keep production level by avoiding big
years that inevitably bring lean ones,
to which he made this comment:
"A man will not decline an order
that he is able to MI Just because
later on he may have difficulty In
selling his products He win take
what he can get at the time, In
evitably."
He believes leisure Is O prerequisite
Of civilization.
IF you destroy the leisure class
you destroy civilization" he remarked.
II think that If the housemothef
has to do all the cooking and all
the washing and bring up a family,
she doesn't have much time to bt
civilized and educate her children"

HEROES OF MAINE
HONORED AT RITES
Cuban Ambassador Joins in
Ceremonies Marking 38th
Anniversary. -.

Representatives OF the United States
and Cuban Governments joined with
the United Spanish War Veterans yes
terday in paying tribute to the officers
and enlisted men Of the U. 9. 8. Maine
on the thirty-eighth anniversary Of
its destruction and sinking In Havana
Harbor.
Assistant Secretary of the Navy
Henry L. Roosevelt at ceremony in
the afternoon at Fort Myer, praised the
heroism of the Maine dead as an in
spiration to the generations to come.
At the same time, DR.. Guillermo Pat
terson, Cuban Ambassador, stressed
the effect of the tragedy in forging
q bond Of sympathy between the
Cuban and American peoples. Com
mander in Chief Robert S. Cain Of
the U. S. w. w. pointed to the result
of the sinking of the Maine in crys-
talizing sentiment in this country IN
favor of active measures against the
Spanish power in the Western
Hemisphere.
The Fort Myer ceremony followed
an impressive service at the mast of
the Maine in Arlington National
Cemetery
At dinner In the Washington Ho-
tel last night, in his honor, Cain re-
called the days of '98," when 1885,
900 volunteers responded to President
McKinley,s call.
In his afternoon talk, Mr.. Roose-
welt stressed the discipline and brav-
cry of the Maine crew.
In his brief message, DR.. Patter-
son said the sinking of the Maine
would be an eternal bond between
the Cuban and American peoples, ex-
planning that exercises similar to those
here were held today in Havana by
Cuban government officials and pa
triotic organizations.

one woman, Basil Linda replied
finally. 81 hope you are mistaken.
Because there just isn't anything
I can do about it. DONE. love
you and I can't marry you"
She wished she could tell him
that she loved Dix, was going to
marry him, but she was afraid
that if she did, he would deny Dix
his chance, the thing that she had
been working toward so hopefully.
SIS there someone else?' he
asked with his voice pitched at the
| lowest dramatic level.
She didn't answer because she
didn't want to lie; ;she smiled and
said quickly, "Please let's turn off
the main road here. At all costs
we must, avoid meeting the 9TH
ers. And, once more please, Basil
will you promise never to breathe
a word about this?"
If Hollywood heard about it,
Linda knew that she was through.
There was only one way that they
might be discovered, and that was
if either she Or Basil Thorne them
selves were to tell about it. There
was no simulated intensity in her
plea to him.
Thorne Rugged her with his free
arm, giving her a brotherly
squeeze. "You worry too much, "
he said.
That wasn't exactly reassuring,
and later that day Linda remem-
bered little things about Thorne's
eyes, a quirk at the corner of his
mouth when he had said it. She
felt the beginning of a disquieting
cloud of doubt that was to grow
with time.
As she had expected, one of the
telephone messages she had ignor-
ed the day before told her that
there was a change of plans and
the company was postponing the
trip to San Jacinto until the next
week. If only she had seen it, she
might have avoided that trip and
would not now be worrying lest it
become known and destroy her.
Because destroy her it would. She
was too important to be able to
stand breath of scandal. Only
unimportant people could afford
that in the movie colony where
discretion was an obligation.
1t was too much for Linda to
keep to herself. She didn't intend
to tell Dix, but when he told her
he had been telephoning her the
night before, she told him the
whole story, hoping and knowing
that he would believe her..
But why be so upset about it?".
Dix asked in his lazy way.
"lf YOU must know, Dix, ] don't
trust Thorne. He isn't exactly a
gentleman, and / have reason to
believe that he isn't to be trust
ed" There were several things
Linda hadn't told Dix, yet she ex-
pected and wanted hi INTO share
her feeling about Thorne.
Dix grasped her by her elbow
and looked into her eyes, did he
make love to you last night?" he
demanded.
Linda loved that. He was jea-
louS.
"No. He only proposed to me-"
He let her go. "Then that's all
,ipht. I think you've got him all

That was precisely what Basil
Thorne was thinking in his glum
silence. The idea of marriage; APP
.palled him, but he grudgingly. adj
mitted that marriage to d girl like
| Linda was the only acceptable
way. The more he. thought abouS
it, the more real it became to him,
He pictured. the, smooth continuity
of life with this well7bred girl. His
mental pictures of their home, life
were drawn from a composite Sc,
ries Of photographs. and movie
sequences. 1t was conglQmerate
range of portraits; Linda in a
flowing gown, pouring tea; Linda
with flaxen-haired children in
faultless English clothes about her
knee; Linda as the hostess at a
modest dinner party of some 3Ou
guests. He went up several de.
orces in his own estimation. II
thinking of it could do that much
to him, he needed her. She must
marry him.
He reviewed what he frankly
called his method of attack. Linda
was not like the other girls he had
known in Hollywood; he couldn't
dangle fame before her eyes. He
must be gentle, charming and per
suasive. And, failing that. he had
powerful weapon. He was net
above using it. Meanwhile he
would content himself with a trla!
of his first method. ...
Linda" he broke the silence,
81 didn't ask you TO marry me be-
cause | thought it was the gallant
thing to do. I've been wanting to
ask you since the first day we met.
"I'm not going to pretend to
YOU that there have been no other
women in my life, but I'm going
to ask you to believe that you are
the first woman who has ever
made me feel that | would want to
live up to her ideals"
"Thank you, Basil" Linda did
not think that was a very en-
thusiastic response, but if the man
would persist it WAS just too bad.
81 haven't very much to offer
you"-so he was still proposing!
Il don't mean money, OF
course" His expansive gesture
of sweeping hand indicated mil
lions of dollars. II am thinking OF
myself. I'm only an old duffer;
clumsy. but I've got heart
Linda"
Linda was very much bored and
entirely tired of'this speech.

Yourself would be making no bad

corner of his eye to see no what
was going over. 1t wasn't so, ne
tried new line.
81 suppose it will sound funny
to you, my dear, but I've always
wanted a woman to mother me.
