ored more than Sequoyah (about
1770-1842), who invented the Chero-
kee alphabet. Not only has bust
of him been placed in the Capitol in
Washington, says Golfers Weekly,
but the giant Sequoia trees in Sc

ton will have the opportunity of de-
termining this.
Under the existing laws the County
Attorney, as an individual, has the
power to settle all tax disputes. The
mining companies, on properties located
in ST. Louis County, pay over SIS ,OO0, 900
in taxes each year. It is important to
elect to this Office an official who will
protect the interests of all the resi-
dents and citizens of st. Louis County
and not the favored few. On this issue
I submit my candidacy to the voters"

running horses, hurdler, polo horses

Auctioneer Asks Who'll Give What
 For Van Sweringen DuCaI Trappings
Brothers Costly Possessions Go Under Hammer
BY WILLIS THORNTON NRA Service Staff Correspondent

NNA OeEVAcS ov4ak OWNkNAN~AANSMe
 Cleveland, oct a4-One moro footnote to the story of the Dixzy Decade will Do added here tomor. row when the beds, books and ban- 10 clocks Of the fabulous Van ewer- lngen brothers are knocked down at public three day auction sale.
 The two shy and retiring country boys who started with nothing, py- ramided it to 1S,l7l, ,00O,OO0 lon pa- per), and who died with less than nothing, have not lived Co see the sale of their personal possessions to satisfy Q creditor bank. Both lived to sec the crash of their financial pyramid, but not this final wiping out of the ducal trappings among which they lived.
 The sale of the personal belong ings and collections of Orris Pax ton and Mantis James Van Swerin- zen is being conducted by tho parke- -Bernet Galleries of New York It is being held ct the Daisy Hill farm" where the brothers lived, near Cleveland, and almost ad- Joining the suburb of Shaker Heights in whose development they got their start, and which remains solid and unaffected by the confet- ti shower of the huge paper fortune of the Van sweringens.
 FEUDAL
 FARM
 Daisy Hill is not c farm. It is like Q great English feudal estate, more than 500 acres of park, with iB stately houses scattered among trees and lawns. The main house, residence of the brothers, Is Q con- verted barn, the silos of which may still be seen in circular rooms and staircases of tho house. But the 3d. room residence with It's n master bedrooms and i3 smaller ones, its swimming pool, It's great dining rooms in which i60 sat down to dinner, was far from barn by the time the Vans got through remodel ing and furnishing 1t, Old Amer ican furniture was their hobby, and 1t Is largely their collections of such furniture, pictures, rugs, dinner ware, and books that are now on sale.
 Tho Dickens Room, in which the brothers had collected Q chair used by tho British novelist when editor of the London Daily News, Q stand from the Dickens chalet ct 0ad's Hill, and Q mas of Dickens rare editions and autograph letters, was scarcely typical. Early American was what caught the eye of the Vans.
 There are more than 5000 items, which are expected to bring around Si0O,000. It is likely that tho Vans spent more than 9i, ,000000 for them Here is . maple bonnet-top chest on chest formerly owned by Edward Holyoke, president of Harvard col iege in i737. Here are superb bu' reaus and secretaries made in Con- necticut and Rhode Island 200 year.

STRAND

A thousand and one thrills await theatergoers at the Warner Bros. strand theater this afternoon for under the Strands new policy of presenting c complete new show ev- cry Saturday, Monday and Wednes. day, the giant technicolor film "Vailey Of the Giants" arrives ct this theater for . two day engage fnent.
 Wayne Morris and Claire Trevor head the brilliant cast Of this breath-taking picture which is mightier in It's thrills than any plc- tures ever screened.
 It is based upon the famous Peter 3. Kyne novel of the same name and tells c story typical Of the vaii. ant fight waged some thirty-odd years ago to prevent the utter des- truction Of CalifoFnia's noted red- wood forests by Tuthiessly selfish lumber interests.
 The hero of the tale, depleted by Morris, is 6 young iumberinan who has Q deep regard for the heritage of the ages represented by the big trees, and he leads the battle to prevent the despoilerg from gaining their ends.
