7. PENDERGAST
IS SENTENCED
Once-Powerful Boss
Sent To Prison For
Year, 3 Months

KANSAS CITY, Notion
Pendergast, the fallen boss of
the Democratic political orga-
nization in Kansas City, today
was sentenced to prison for
one year and three months.
He also was fined $4,000.
Sentence was imposed by Judge
Merrill f. Otis, after Pendergast,
the man who made senators and
governors, had pleaded guilty TO
charges of income tax payment
evasion.
The sentence meant the end
of the political career Of the
67-year-old man, whose very
appearance was that of the
cartoonists conception of the
political overload.
Judge Otis remanded Pendergast
to the custody of the u. S. marshal,
and said he would begin serving
his sentence Immediately. How
ever. Pendergast's attorneys asked
that he be given 20 days in which
to adjust his affairs, and Judge Otis
finally agreed to allow him weeks
freedom. 1t was not announced
what prison he would be taken to,
but it was believed likely he would
serve at Leavenworth, 40 miles
from here.
In addition to the prison SEN
tence, assessed on the first count
of the indictment, and the $1,000
fine, assessed on the second count,
Pendergsst was sentenced to three
years in prison on the second count.
but placed on probation for five
years. Thus, his actual time in
prison will be limited to Is months,
with time off for good behavior.

Veterans Are Loudest
Advocates of Keep.
Out-of-War Policy

WASHINGTON - Loudest
rooters for a keep-out-of-w
policy in the United States are
the 1000, 1000 odd veterans
who fought in the last war.
Their letters to American Le-
gion headquarters, the various
veterans committees on Capt.
toll Hill and similar organiza-
tons reveal that under no cir
cumstances do they want
Uncle Sam to try to save
democracy again.
The average age Of the World
war veterans is placed officially at
as, and the average age Of their
sons is 10 - what many Of them
cynicslly call "a fine battlefield
age"
Their deepest concern, judy
ing from their correspondence,
Is that their youngsters would
he among the first to be called
into service In the event Of
American entry. Many Of them
write that they would prefer
to 90 themselves than 10 ser
their boys make the sacrifices
and suffer the hardships they
did 20 years ago.
A check of the various votes on
neutrality problems-the Nye, Lud-
low resolutions, etc.-discloses that
the veterans bloc on Capitol Hill
(l50-plus in the house. % in the
senate lined up almost solidly for
100 per cent isolationism.
