ELECTRIC EYE
STORY NAILED

Recent rumors to the effect that
1870 employees of the Civil Service
Commission will lose their posi-
tions because Of the proposed in
stallation Of an electric-eye ma.
chine to rate papers were put to
rest today by a letter received by
a member of Congress from the
chief Of the commission.
It was Representative william
P. Connery CD Of Massachusetts,,
who has opposed the use by the
Government Of labor Saving de-
vices, who drew from Chairman
Harry B. Mitchell Of the Civil Serv-
ice Commission a denial of the
rurnor.
Mr.. Connery several times
charged on the House floor that he
had heard these rumors and sought
to have provision written into the
independent offices supply bill to
prohibit the use of the electric-eye
machines.
Today he placed in the Congress
sional Record a copy of a letter he
received from Mr.. Mitchell, a SIM
liar letter having been sent to
Representative Clifton Woodrum
Cd of Virginia, chairman of the
House Appropriations subcommit-
tee in charge of the independent
offices supply bill. The letter
read:
According to Mr.. Connery,
someone told him that the Civil
Service Commission was about
to install an electric-eye machine
to rate papers, and that as re-
suit of installing this machine
13O persons would lose their po-
sitions. 1 don't know who made
these statements to Congressman
Connery, but apparently who
ever it was has a vivid imagina-
ton. There is no truth in either
statement"

UP T0C0URT

The Supreme Court late yester-
day took under adviSement the
appeal of the Associated Press
challenging the constitutionality
of the national labor relations act.
While Secretary of Labor Perkins
observed from the SidelineS, coun-
sci for the news gathering agency
and Government attorneys clashed
in heated debate over freedom Of
the press.
John w. Davis, 1924 Democratic
presidential standard arer,
argued on behalf of the Associated
Press that the New Deal" labor
law abridged four constitutional
guarantees.
Charles Fahy, special counsel to
the Labor Relations Board, con-
tended the high tribunal should
uphold the New York labor boards
action in ordering Morris watson,
a former Associated Press employe,

NEW YORK, Feb. IL Q.N.S0.
An astounding break" which
will entirely reopen the Lind

confidently expected in New Jer-
sey, the New York Evening

said, are raised by Governor Har-

trial on State charges of three
men in connection with the Wen
del episode continued today in
Brooklyn.
Wendell already has testified
that the men-Murray Bleefeld,
Martin Schlossman, and Harry
Weiss-participated in his abduc-
ton and torture which resulted
in the repudiated confession, ,"
while defense counsel has argued
that the men we're "dupes" of the

With regard to the expected New

Journal said:

and Parker that they have the
real solution to the Lindbergh
case that the governor is re-
ported preparing a book on
Bruno Richard Hauptmann.
"This book supposedly is a
ScOrnful retOrt to critics of HOff-

inn near Yonkers during the Rcvo- lutionary period, and her tap room was favorite rendezvous for Brit ish and French officers whose com- mands were stationed in the vicin- ity.
 One day an American officer ar rived with several rock pheasants which he had stolen from a British commissary, and asked that they be roasted. In preparing the feast, Betsy also prepared some potent drinks and decorated each glass with one of the gawdy feathers from the cock pheasants tails.
 This was a great success and caused one gallant to spring to his feet:
 Here's to Betsy and her marvellous drink" he cried. Tt offers the same delightful sensations as the cocks tail feathers. offer to the eye"
 whereupon one of the French off cers exclaimed: "Vive le cocktaill" And that was how the cocktail ob- tained it's name.
 
 Betsy, bless her soul. is resting in her grave in an old cemetery at Lewiston now, but her memory is being saluted in a right proper fash ion on Madison Avenue. By diligent research. the hotel authorities have succeeded in obtaining the ingred- tents Betsy used in the first cock tail, and are featuring it now in all their bars.
 So, next time you feel like tip- ping your hat to history. call for a Betsy Flanagan.

FRIENDS REUNITED
 BY FALL DOWN WELL

Taking shortcut across an aban- doned farm. near Naughton, Can ade, recently, David Morrison fell into a well. He was unhurt but couldn't climb out
 Morrison hadn't been in the well an hour before his old friend, J. Brooks, dropped in.
 Brooks had taken the same short cut and suffered the same fate. It was the first meeting of the two men in more than a year
 To get out of the well, Morrison climbed on Brooks shoulders, got rope, and pulled his friend up.

 The whole trouble is that unfore- seen developments have cast a haze over the national horizon to replace the roseate glow of January.
 Congress was eager then to face the future and make a record for itself. Quite willingly 1t stepped into, the spotlight of national af- fairs. But now, the picture is different. Some kind of tax revision is almost inevitable - somebody's pocketbook Imay have to suffer. And who wants to tackle the stock market crisis? e
 Arkansas Didn't Help Crop control and subsidy must take precedence because it has been promised. But who is eager to vote STOO O,U00,0OO ana at the same tune impose the processing tax required to pay the bill?
 Labor legislation likewlse has been promised, but will the wages and hours bill make friends or enemies for Congressman?
 And that October election in Ar kansas did not help solve the dilem- ma. It gave Congressmen no answer to the question, Which way shall we jump, when the spotlight is turned on?"

One Passenger Got Out of
 Cab, Dined, and Got Back B efore It Moved
By GEORGE TUCKER

NEW YORK, Nov. 12.-Tales of the wretcLed traffic conditions in New Yolk are not always believed by outsiders but here is a mishap, featuring Sheila Barrett, which really illustrates how hopeless things have become.
 f Miss Barrett was thoughtless enough to enter a cab on recent evening and give an address on the other side of the island. Now every thody should know that taXis are no way to make speed while cross ling the island. The traffic is so slow that che could easily walk twice the distance in half the time.
 But Miss Barrett still had sev- eral hours to keep her appointment and, optimist thst she is, thought that she would reach there in time. Finally, after the cab had made cnly five blocks in 40 minutes, she became bored. Had I known we were going to be here this long. v Miss Barrett said archly. I'd have gone into that restaurant for some thing to eat
 You've still got plenty of time, y cried the driver encouragingly. If we get started before you get back, I'll yell"

Our personal nomination for the greatest back roaming the colleg- late gardens is Clint Frank.
 The Yale captain won all-Amer- lea honors year ago. This sea- son he has shown enough improve ment to deserve rating as a foot gall genius.
 There isn't phase of the game at which he is not proficient. A great passer, he is just as effective at carrying the ball. He has drive through the line In a broken field he is elusive and hard to stop. His l90 pounds are spread over solid frame. He has speed.
 He runs the team on the offense and defense. Few men are more adept at diagnosing plays and fer reting out weak spots in an op- ponent's armor. A deadly tackler, Frank seems to sense the plays and manages to be on the spot in time to break them up. At the de- spised task of blocking, he is thor ough and effective.
 Last fall, when Larry Kelley was riding to fame on the touchdown passes he caught in spectacular fashion, Frank went along doing his chores without fanfare. Those who felt that Kelley was making him look good must by now be convinced that it was Frank, and his soft, floating pitches, that paved the way for the success Loquacious Larry enjoyed. The tway other ends have been taking Franks passes this fall is evidence of Franks ability as a passer. It isn't the Yale team that makes Frank great. It is he who has nodded the Ellis into an efficient machine.
 pr. Nal Stevens, former Yale lplayer and once head coach of the Blue, calls attention to the work of Yale's Coach Ducky Pond.
 Pond deserves more credit than has come his way" says Dr. Ste- vens. Contrary to the general inn precision, it is Ducky, and not one of his assistant coaches, who has been coming up with smart defens- live setups to thwart opponents att tacks. He's a fine coach and is do- ing a great job at Yale"
