Move for Freedom Lost
In D. C. Court by Beard

Sam Beard. Washington gambler,
lost in District Court yesterday his
move for freedom from the Federal
Penitentiary in Atlanta, Ca, where
he is serving a sentence on charges
of violating the gambling laws here.
Justice Daniel V. O'Donoghue. in
Criminal Court No. 2, declined to
issue a writ of habeas corpus in
Boards favor, indicating the pro-
ceedings should be brought in the
Federal Court for the Northern Dis
trict of Georgia in which the Atlanta
prison is located.
Boards lawyer. James M. Laugh
lin, said he would appeal immedi-
ately to the United States Court Of
Appeals here His contention was
that, inasmuch as recent Supreme
Court decision held intrastate wire
tapping illegal, Beard should be
liberated. Beard was convicted on
evidence obtained in wire tapping.

Priest Seriously Hurt
In Philippine Sugar
Strike Violence
II Men Held After Attack
On PIontotion Manager;
Arbitration Asked
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
MANILA, Jan. "a German
Catholic priest, Esteban Praus. man.
ager of a church -owned sugar plan
tation, was reported wounded seri-
ously today in a new outbreak of vio-
lence in the strike of 5000 sugar
workers.
Reports from Pampanga Province
said II men were arrested for the
attack and charged with frustrated
murder.
Sugar cane was burned on two
plantations, one in Pampanga and
the other in Tarlac Province, and six
persons were arrested on charges OF
incendiarism.
Constabularymen patrolled farms
around Mexico, heart of the strike
affected district, to prevent further
sabotage. One man was killed and
two wounded there over the week
end.
The sugar workers, organized as
the Socialist Union, submitted seven
arbitration points to Labor Secre-
tary Jose Avelino in attemps to settle
their dispute with the Pampanga
Sugar Development Co.
They asked reinstatement of two
dismissed workers, collective bar
gaining rights, general wage in
crease of 80 per cent, that the COM
pany establish hospital and school
for workers and their children, that
the company union be dissolved
that the company's special police be
disbanded and that the company
manager be dismissed.

Liner Returns Fire
OF U-Boot, Escapes

RIO DE JANEIRO, Jan. 9 P).-
The British Royal Mail lined High
land Patriot fought off German
submarine near the Canary Islands
on December %, it was disclosed
with arrival of the 14,173-ton vessel
here yesterday.
Seven shots were fired in the en-
gagement, four by the liner.
The Highland Patriot, out OF
Liverpool with 209 passengers for
South American ports, was about
so miles south of the islands when
the submarine appeared and made
a signal which officers of the High
land Patriot said they failed to un-
derstand.
Then, said the officers, the sub
marine fired two shots from a deck
gun described as or incher; the
Highland Patriot, Zigzagging ahead
of the attacker, responded with fire
from a 6-inch gun mounted astern
as defensive armament"
The German fired once more, the
officers said, all shots going wild !;
the Highland Patriot fired a total
of four shots.
The submarine, which it was be-
lieved was not hit, then submerged.

10. O. P. Debt
|'Extinguished,'
|HumiIton Saws

John D. M. Hamilton, chairman
of the Republican National Commit
tee, chose Jackson Day to make his
announcement that the $685., 900 debt
of the committee has been "extin-
guished" since December l. In CIV
ing his statement to the press yes
terday, Mr.. Hamilton remarked:
1T is particularly gratifying to be
able to make this announcement of
the extinguishment of the debt OF
the Republican National Committee
on this jackson Day, the 105th an
niversary of that Jackson Day dinner
of January 8, 1885, held at Wash
ington, in honor of the extinguish-
ment of the national debt"
The debt clearance came as the
result of vigorous, but quiet, cam
paign for pledges to retire the large
debt, all of which was acquired in
the Republicans unsuccessful 1896
presidential campaign.

Tax-Resisting Employer
BUYS Back Two Trucks
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
YORK, Pa, Jan. 9.-Despite loss
of second round, Fred Perkins
has no intention of relaxing his tax
joust with the Federal Govern
ment.
The battery maker, who went to
Jail rather than comply with N. R.
A. codes, settled another account
with Federal agents yesterday by
buying two trucks that had been
taken from him for social security
taxes.
That accomplished, Mr.. Perkins
said with characteristic vehemence:
I'm not going to pay the next time.
Whatever the Government gets
from me it will have to confiscate."
He asserted that he had to bor-
row on his life insurance in order
to get his trucks and square $1l7.46
tax and penalties.
Meantime, the Pennsylvania De-
partment of Justice prepared to en-
ter suit asking judgment against
Perkins for $2224l taxes due the

Miss Perkins Drops
Deportation Case
Against Bridges
Communist Connection
Improved, She Says.
UphoIdine Lands Report

Ey the Associated Press.
The deportation case against
Harry Bridges, West Coast c. I. o.
leader, has been dismissed by Sec
retary of Labor Perkins, who held
that his connection with the Com
munist party was not established.
BY her action last night, Miss
Perkins approved the findings sub
mitted by Dean James NJ Lands
of the Harvard Law School, special
trial examiner in the case.
A deportation warrant issued in
1888 charged that Mr.. Bridges was
affiliated with an organization
which advocated overthrow of the
Government by force and violence
Dean Lands found that Mr..
Bridges was 'energetically radical"
in his beliefs, but said evidence did
not show that the methods he
seeks to employ to realize them are
other than those that the frame
work of democratic and constitu-
tional government permits"
Miss Perkins commented in her
decision:
There was conflict of testimony
between several of the Government
witnesses and the witnesses offered
by the defense.
THE trial examiner = had op-
portunity personally to observe the
witnesses, conducted some of the
questioning himself and therefore
was in a position to appraise both
their veracity and the relative value
and weight of their statements"
Mr.. Bridges, a native of Australia,
came to the United States in 1920.

Citizens May Aid

A program in which the private
citizen can assist in controlling
venereal disease-currently esti-
mated to total around 100000 cases
in Washington-was proposed by
Ray H. Everett, executive secretary
of the Social Hygiene Society of
the District, before the 36th annual
meeting of the Graduate Nurses
Association and the League of Nurs-
ing Education, which concluded to-
day.
Mr.. Everett outlined this program:
l. Learn the basic facts about
venereal disease.
Would Check PhObias.
2. Avoid phobias, such as those
which cause some employers to dis
charge syphilitic workers even
though the workers may be in a
non-infectious stage-and those
which makes many persons so con-
temptuous of venereal disease that
they greatly handicap the disease
control program.
3. Support sound control legisla-
ton, such as pre-marital examina-
ton laws that have been adopted
by 10 States.
4. Aid public health authorities
obtain adequate appropriations for
financing effective control programs.
S. Help in provision of sound
venereal disease education-in the
home, the school and the church
Need for expansion of Washington
facilities for venereal disease treat
ment was stressed by DR.. George M.
Leiby, director of the District Health
Departments Venereal Control Bu-
reau, at the opening symposium Of
the nurses meeting yesterday at the
Willard Hotel.
120, 900 Persons Involved.
DR.. Leiby said that about 20 per
cent of the estimated $4,000 cases of
syphilis and the 10000 cases of gon-
orrhea occur simultaneously, giving
an estimated total number of l4O,-
600 cases involving 10000 persons.
He said that it may be "conserva-
lively estimated that about $500
new cases of syphilis and 5000 new
cases of gonorrhea occur each year
in the District, and that the onset
OF more than half of these cases
occur in persons under rs years of
age.
