Attempting to stifle all opposi-
ton under q blanket Of vilifica'
ton and abuse, the Senate BLACK
guard Committee" yesterday con-
tinued its personal attack on Will
liam Randolph Hearst.
It's mouth-piece was Senator
Schwellenbach, Of washington,
one Of the little pole-cat mem
berS" of the committee, who as
sailed the publisher and the press
Of the nation for daring to invoke
court aid to protect constitutional
rights.
The "Black-guarders" are under
fire for their reign of terror in
selling thousands Of private tele'
grams including those of Mr..
Hearst.
From the floor Of the Senate,
where his remarks were cloaked
with immunity, Schwellenbach yes
terday continued his denunciatory
attack where he left off Tuesday.
ASSaUS EO1GOfS
Schwellenbach set a new high
for pure naivete when he charged
that what really spurred Mr..
Hearst to act was the fact that
Mr.. H. c. Hopson Of the AsSo-
ciated Gas and Electric Company
gave to Mr.. Hearst'S papers about
twice the amount of advertising
money as was given to any other
paper in the country"
Typical Of his blind, absurd as
sault was the assertion that Hop
son controlled the editorial policies
Of the Hearst papers.
Schwellenbach paused to preen
himself as he called it an honor
to be called a BLACKBOARD by Will
liam Randolph Hearst" Then, as
II to merit the high rank bestowed
on him, he spilled a wild torrent
Of abuse on the heads of editors
in general, whatever their afilia-
ton.
The modern editor is a business
manager, or better still, an adver.
tising manager, he beloved.
The Washington times., 1936-04-02

In reply to q request
for q statement on Sem
Gtor SchwellenbGch'S
speech in the Senate
yesterday, William Ran
dolph Hearst made pub
Tic the following tele-
gram:
SAN SIMEON, Calf,
April l, 1886.
Senator Schwellenbach
is not making charges.
He is avoiding charges.
He is evading issues.
He is confessing guilt.
He is hiding behind a
cuttlefish cloud of Black
guard vituperation and
Justification.
He Is the prize polecoat
Of the polecat committee.
His speech, as Shakes
pears says, "Is q tale told
by an idiot, full of sound
and fury, signifying moth
ing"
Let Senator Schwellen-
bach submit to the courts
his reasons for attempting
to rob the citizens of their
constitutional rights, and
not take cowardly refuge
behind the senatorial priv
ileges he abuses and dis
graces.

HAPPY RELIEF
FROM PAINFUL
BACKACHE
Caused by Tired Kidneys

Caused by Tired Kidneys
Many of those gnawing, nagging,
painful backaches people blame on
colds or strains are often caused by
tired kidneys-and may be relieved
when treated in the right way.
The kidneys are one of Natures
chief ways of taking acids and
wastes out of the blood. A healthy
person should pass about 8 pints a
day and so get rid Of more than 3
pounds of waste matter.
If the Is miles of kidney tubes and
filters don't work we'll, waste stays in
the body and may become poisonous.
1t may start nagging backaches, leg
pains, loss Of pep and energy, getting
up nights, swelling, puffiness under
the eyes, headaches and dizziness,
when due to functional kidney dis
orders.
Don't let it lay you up. Ask your
druggist for Doan's Pills-used sue
cessfully by millions for over 40
years. They give happy relief and
will help to flush out the Is miles of
kidney tubes. Get Doan's Pills.

jority may be the minimum.
 The republicans scramble for preferment forbids establishing q fixed schedule for proceedings at Cleveland. In 1924 when democrats met and battled in Madison Square Garden more than 100 ballots and nine days were required to nomin- ate John w. Davis for president as compromise between the candi- dacies of William c. McAdoo and Alfred k. Smith.
 c. o. r. Faces Bumps
 No such record making struggle is likely at Cleveland, but the con- vention will not run off as smooth ly as the democratic show for which almost everything IS de- cided in advance
 The democratic program is to meet on the morning of Tuesday, June g, for an address of well come by Mayor Davis at Philadel- phia. That evening Sen. Alben C.. Barkely, Kentucky, will be elected temporary chairman to deliver the keynote speech. Wednesday, June 24, the convention will dispose of routine business and in the evening elect Sen. Joseph T. Robinson, Ar kansas, permanent chairman. The next day the convention will receive and adopt its platform md in the evening probably hear the first of the speeches re-nominating MT. Roosevelt. There will be almost 50 seconding speeches The nomination will be voted June 20 and the next evening Mir. Roosevelt and Mir. Garner will accept in Franklin Field, a sports stadium adjacent to the convention hall.
 The Republicans will elect Sen. Frederick Steiwer of oregon tem- porary chairman and keynoter and Rep. Bertrand II. Shell of New York will succeed him as permanent chairman.

BRIDGET TRIAL
 IS ADJOURNED

London, May 15-(U.P) -- The special tribunal Investigating bud- get leaks which caused an insurance market boom for protection against increased tea duty and income tax rates today adjourned until Mon- day.
 Adjournment was taken after ex- amination of several witnesses who testified regarding the alleged tram sections of Sir Alfred Butt on the basis of advance budget infornna- ton.
 Thus far J. IT. Thomas, secretary of state for colonies, has been the only official named directly by q witness as responsible for the leak in the budget, one of the most care fully guarded government secrets.

The republican scramble for first place on the 1886 ticket has ob- scured the c. O. P. vice presidential position. It is likely, however, that an eastern republican such as James w. Wadsworth of New York will be put in second place on the ticket.
 Twelve months of constant polit- ical maneuvering and whispering preceded the conventions shortly to meet. The republicans will assemble fin Cleveland, June 9. One June g the democrats convene in Philadel- phia. Adjournment of those meet angS will end the extraordinary months of doubt and suspicion pe- culiar to American politics known as the "pre-convention period"
 Platform Issues Secondary
 The election campaign proper ac- eually will be under way when the gavel taps an end to the Cleveland gathering of the c. o. P. All the public wants to know is the Identity of the republican ticket. The dem- Ocratic team already is in the field. There is general and legitimate in- terest in the party platforms. But this time there is no such hotly controversial issue as prohibition to be disposed of by the nations statesmen. Planks on balancing the budget or continuation of New Deal experiments are not likely to ex- cite the people as did the 1892 plat dorm deliberations over this simple question:
 "shall our drinks be legal or il- legal2"
 Republicans meeting first will muster 1901 delegate votes but al- ternates and division of some indi- Widual votes will more than double that number. With all delegate votes cast, the successful republican must obtain 60i, bare majority to be named.
 4 Two thirds Rule in Doubt Since 1892 when the democratic party held its second national con- Wention in Baltimore, the party has nominated not by bare mapority Ibut by a minimum two-thirds vote ofthe delegates. That rule still pre- INails despite repeated efforts to ab- broEate 1t, the last in 1882 when the lFSoosevelt forces sought to weaken the stop- Roosevelt brigade by changing rules in the middle of the game. l: the two-third rule is con- Einued in Philadelphia next month, khe Mir. Roosevelt will require . minimum of 734 delegate votes to be renominated. Voting strength ht Philadelphia will be HOO.
 But MT. Roosevelt and Chairman Names A. Farley of the democratic national committee predict that the kwo-thirds rule would be abolished this year after 104 years of exis- kence. They should know. In any event, Mir. Roosevelt will be named again by more than whatever ma

SERVANT CONFESSES
TO Staying WRITER
Carl Taylor, From Indiana,
Shot at Albuquerque.

By United Press
ALBUQUERQUE. N. NJ, Feb. g.
Modesto Trujillo, 18-year- house
boy employed by Carl Taylor, ma
tionally known magazine writer,
confessed today, according to po-
lice, that he shot Taylor to death
in his cabin Is miles east of here
yesterday.
Trujillo's confession, in which the
youth was understood to havj adj
mitted that he killed Mr.. Taylor
to rob him of some $4,000 in cash
and travellers checks, cleared a
crime in which officers had at first
leaned to theory that Mr.. Tay-
lor was murdered by the Penitentes,
cult of self touturers.
This theory had been supported
by reports from friends of Taylor,
including Conrad Richter, Western
writer. that the slain man had vio-
lated the secrets of the Penitentes,
even photographing their "morada, .
or temple. to obtain material for a
manuscript concerning them.
Mr.. Taylor was born at Midtown,
Crawford County, Ind, and was a
graduate of Central Normal COLLEGE
at Danville, Ind.

cause the Governor befriended the
Lindbergh kidnaper he was stripped
of his leadership in the Republican
Party and threatened with action
by the Legislature to deprive him OF

Politicians said he could blame his
deposition almost entirely upon the
unpopularity of his attempts to save
Hauptmann from death.
The party state executive com
mittee ousted Gov. Hoffman from
leadership at a special meeting. It
announced plans to establish per-
manent headquarters to direct pas
sage of legislation in conformity
with the party platform, settle dis
putes over appointments to public
