Impressive Witness
CLEAN of ZedIOt :.
BY RODNEY BUTCHER

Washing oloN.-DlCO ONAh
ERICAN COMMITTEE: Despite
many absurdities, finally produced
an impressive witness in Prof. j. B.
Matthews Tall, spare, with
pompadored thin gray hair, profess
serial spectacles and natty blue suit,
Matthews speaks tensely, dramati-
cally, and even in oratorical flights
as he makes an able exposition OF
Communist strategy and technique.
The zealots CLEAN is in his eye
while he exposes united front"
groups he once helped organize
Net result is to nail down
previous testimony that Communists
like to dominate organizations.
Matthews, admitting he once
sought to cover up Communist al
filiations with united front groups,
now stretches points the other way
He is president of Con-
sumers' Research, devoted to telling
people how to buy Consumers
Research employees went on strike;
It's owners charged Communism.
Strikers organized Consumers ua-
ion, and Matthews, a competitor,
charges this and other consumer
organizations had Communist orr
gin But Matthews, never a
Communist party member, tells
this writer he began to pull away
from active association with all
Communists long before the Con-
sumers' Research strike. He says
the Russian trials and executions
of old bolshevistS finally soured
him.
SPECTATORS: CONSPICUOUS are
red-hot patriotic ladies who devote
their lives to finding Communists
under beds and in other odd places.
But when Haywood Broun denies
Matthews assertion that he left
the Socialists to work with Com
munists more freely and is shut of
by Dies as ne tells the committee,
you're wasting your time," a
whoop of applause comes from
others and Dies threatens to clear
the room A thin, nervous
elderly man named Shea bites his
fingers angrily because the com
mittee won't call him. He represents
the National Gentle League and
the American Viligante Association
James True, who writes con-
fidential weekly letter about Com
munists and Jews, is here.
Also, briefly, William B. Shearer
who busted up the 1927 Geneva
naval conference.
COMMITTEE MEMBERS PRE-
SENT: Witnesses can't help "see
red" Chairman Dies wears that
color of tie, instead of his usual
small black bow. Dies, stout, salloW
brown haired president of the house
demagogue club who left a $120C
a year law practice in Orange, Tex
to serve the people, can't help max
ing anti-Communist stump speeches

financed from abroad.
That will be fine thing. Many for

publicists, whom they pay to do their
dirty work. but who the American public
are led to suppose are Americans just
like themselves.
Very little that is said abroad can be
believed, for all the governments are
coloring the news to suit their own pur-
poses They would like to have it that
way in this country where a free press
exists, and they have been doing their
best to fool the newspapers and persuade
them to publish their propaganda.
Under the new law to be put into effect
when Secretary Hull announces the

The lordly moose holds sway as
Canada's prize game attraction. The
season on this forest monarch opened
in Quebec in late September and
opens in Ontario in midi October. The
rutting period in the early part Of
the season Is preferred by many
sportsmen, because it is then easier
to attract moose with calls from 4
birch horn. Others prefer late No.
vember, however, when the quarry
has moved up to the hardwood ridges
and when he often may be tracked
over light falls Of snow. At present,
there is no open season on moose in
the New Brunswick province, but this
deficiency Is made up for by an
abundance Of white-tailed deer, also
plentiful in other eastern provinces.
Bear Plus Trout.
Bear hunting Is increasingly popu-
lar, especially when combined, as in
Ontario, with angling for lake trout.
According to Jack johnson Of Royal
York Hotel, Toronto, the angler-hun
leaves several lures Of fish on the

OLD FAITHFUL TOPS
IN PARK POPULARITY
280,017 Watched White Plume
Rise in Season-Museum
Drawing Thousands.


YELLOWSTONE PARK, wyo., Oct.
AFTER pondering over their records
for the 1888 season, ranger-naturalists
in Yellowstone National Park are con-
vinced that geysers hold top billing
among the parks attractions.
On every count they kept during
the season geysers are at the top.
Old Faithful is the greatest star Of
them all, the prima donna of the park
having played to 289,017 persons dur
ing the season. The figure includes
only those who watched the perform
ance from near the cone.
The popularity award among The
field trips goes to the Norris geyser
basin through which 1852 persons
trailed ranger-naturalists. The upper
basin in which Old Faithful is To-
Gated trailed closely in the poll with
1906.
Campfire lectures showed the Old
Faithful museum in the lead with
$4,000 persons compared With Fishing
Bridges $4,000 In museum attend
ance Old Faithful again leads with
12l 900 to Mammoth Hot Springs
$4,000.
That some red blood remains in the
veins Of the American park visitor is
indicated by the fact that 1850 persons
had the energy to brave the severe
trip to the bottom of the Yellowstone
Canyon and back and that $500 per-
sons were willing to Chamber over the
high terraces at Mammoth Hot Springs.
