manager of FireStone, Mr.. Hattor
launched into business for himself
at the southeast corner of 9th ano
Broadway in the firm known as
Hatton's Garage where he has re-
manned up until now.
The steady gain in Hatton's bus

led to the building of the new

During his extended automotive
service career in Ell Centro, Hatton
has surrounded himself with staff
of efficient and deservedly popular
specialists in the various branches
of motor vehicle upkeep.
Assisting him in the conduct of
the new place will be the follow

liberal" crusade. The President
would be told that personal consid-
erations or even explicit previous
statements about a third term which
he might have made should be
brushed aside. Roosevelt supporters
like Secretary Ickes and Senator
Norris of Nebraska already have in
timated publicly that the President
might be compelled to run for a
third term to save liberalism" in
America. To hold the Roosevelt
groups together inside the Demo-
cratic party. the wisest strategy con-
cededly is to leave the question of
Mr.. Roosevelt's ambitions open as
long as possible. even to convention
time in June, 1910. And it looks
very much as if the ardent Roose-
welt men would essay to keep it

of factional politics in pre-conven-
ton campaigns.

Stryker Is Silent
On Calling Hines
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, Feb. 13.-Whether
blunt-spoken James j. Hines would
testify in his own defense was the
question uppermost in the minds
of courtroom spectators today at the
Tammany chieftain's second trial
on lottery conspiracy charges.
As the defense opened following
more than two weeks of testimony
by State witnesses, Chief Counsel
Lloyd Paul Stryker refused COM
ment on whether Mr.. Hines would
take the stand.
Instead Mr.. Stryker prepared a
plea for dismissal of the charges
that the Democratic district leader
had acted as political "fxer" for
the Dutch Schultz mob's SO, ,OO0, 900, =
a-year numbers syndicate.
Mr.. Stryker expressed confidence
that Judge Charles C. Mott, jr.,
would throw the case out of court
on the grounds that District Attor-
ney Thomas E. Dewey had failed
completely to prove Mr.. Hines guilty
of any criminal offense:
The first trial of Mr.. Hines ended
in mistrial last December. State
Supreme Court Justice Ferdinand
E. Pecora ruled then that MI.
Dewey had prejudiced the jury
by linking Mr.. Hines to a crime
with which he was not charged

Few pre-New Deal branches of

One reason is that, together with

ice must find projects for c. c. c.
boys. Although Arno B. Cammerer
and Arthur E. Demaray, director
and associate director, respectively,
are among the Governments most
seasoned administrators, it's gen.
orally understood that Secretary
IckeS often takes a hand himself
in the details of the service. Among
interesting recent changes was the
transfer to the field. to be superin-
tendent of the Grand Canyon Ma
tional Park, of Harold Bryant, as
sistant director in charge of edu-
cational and nature work and
former University of California pro-
