Uncle Dan raced his horses here

Shamrock I'd
To Finish Long
Race Over Lake
Favorite White Cloud
Fails to Be Among
Early Boats TO Finish
By GEORGE f. VAN

MACKINAC ISLAND. July ID.
Many yachtsmen have snickercd
at Charley Beck's efforts to make
Hostess ii a fast boat but the
Baview Yacht Club commodore
had the laugh on all of them to-
day when his 52-foot yawl finished
first to win the eighteenth annual
Port Huron TO Mackinac race.
1t was the first race Beck has
won in five years he has owned
the boat although he has spent
a wad of dough on Improvements
TO make her a champion.
Hostess III went into the lead
two hours after the start Satur-
day and although her lead was
challenged by Ernie Crates eight
meter sioop Shamrock and Harry
Fletcher's 72-foot II meter Iris.
she took the lead for certain at
shutdown and held it all the way
to finish.
She crossed the line at 3:29.28
a. m. today and no other ship is
given a chance TO beat her time
despite handicaps.
Second boat to finish was Sham
rock at $1,000 a. m. and Crates
ship thus became the winner in
| the racing division.
Wilfred Gmeiner, better known
as foot" brought his 47-foot cut
ter Apache in at 6:43.40 to take
second place to Hostess II in the
Icruising feet and first in the B
division of the racing-cruiser
Iclass. Iris. expected to be the first
boat to finish, came in at 7:O6
a. m.

NEW YORK, July 49, The
Tigers showed some cub claws 10

bleheader at the Stadium. Virgil
Trucks and Hal White, a couple of
rookie right handlers, really had
the champions swinging bats Of

didn't finish.
But that isn't the whole story.
Virgil went 10 the relief Of Al

the third inning OF the first game,
when the YankS were enjoying a
Ithree-run lead. and from then on
gave the Bronx BomberS one hit

believe in view Of the large volume
OF business in this jurisdiction-the
remedy is not by denying right of
hearing to those who claim they
are restrained of their liberty with
out warrant of law; 1t is rather by
congressional action to enlarge the
personnel of the courts"
In his dissenting opinion, Justice
Rutledge pointed out that the view
OF the majority of the court meant
that an insane person could file as
many petitions as he wished and
as often as he wished. Such a per-
son could file them weekly, month
ly, or at any other interval, and the
court would have no alternative but
to hear each application upon the
merits" Justice Rutledge said.
The best remedy, in his view, the
dissenting jurist said, would be a
statute to regulate the matter gen.

and frequency of hearings a petit
toner should have on the same

U. S. Attorney to Ask
Supreme Court Ruling
On Appeals Reversal

The United States Court OF Ap.
peals held yesterday that person
adjudsed to be of unsound mine

lease by filing petitions for a wri
Of habeas corpus as often as they
wish.
The United States attorney,
office, however, considers the matter
Of such Importance that it an.
nounced, through Dennis Mccarthy
an assistant handling the case, tina
1t will recommend that the Suprem,
Court be asked to rule on the ques
ton. The Government prosecutor
representing DR.. Winfred Ober.
holser, superintendent Of st. Eliza.
beth's Hospital, is resisting the as.
serted right Of patients to file 6
second petition soon after another
has been dismissed by the court.
The appellate tribunal divided, two
to one, in the case. which involved
the petition of Dennis w. Roster, a
st. Elizabeth's patient since 1910
Associate Justice Harold M. Stephens
and Fred M. Vinson concurred In
reversing District Court ruling
while Associate Justice Wiley Rut-
ledge wrote dissenting opinion
Justice Stephens wrote the majority
opinion and Justice Vinson added
a short statement of his views.
Convicted in 1887.
Roster was convicted in 1897 of
assault with dangerous weapon
and given a sentence that expired
in October, 1910. In February, 1910.
however, he was adjudged to be of
unsound mind by a District Court
jury and was sent to st. Elizabet tn s
Hospital.
On July l., 1910, Roster filed a
petition for writ of habeas corpus.
which was discharged after q hear
ing IN District Court that same day
in respect to his mental health.
Roster was returned to st. Eliza
beth's.
On October IS, 1910. the day fol-
lowing expiration of his sentence on
the criminal charge, Roster sent to
the court another petition for a
writ. To this petition was annexed
an affidavit for leave to file the
case without paying court fees on
the ground that he was pauper.
The Court of Appeals held that
Justice Bolitha j. Laws ruled on
the petition without giving Roster a
hearing. The Government, how
ever, had argued that Justice Laws
did not even permit Roster to file
the petition. The jurist, the Gov
ernment claimed. simply took no.
tice that Roster had been given a
hearing on writ only three and
one-half months before, and since
that one had been denied held he
was not entitled to the right to file
another petition without paying
court costs so soon after the first
one.
In its brief, the Government
pointed to the burden imposed on
the court by 50 many petitions for
writs filed by persons claiming they
have recovered from insanity. In
one three months period 80 out of
46 petitions filed in the court were
in behalf of st. Elizabeth's patients.
In none OF them were patients dis
charged from custody. The time
and expense in handling these
cases demonstrates the need of al
lowing judges discretion in per-
mitting petitions to be filed, the
Government argued.
Cites Congressional Remedy.
Responding to this, the appellate
tribunal said: eff the burden Of
work upon the trial court is too
great-as there is much reason to

issues. In the absence of law,
however, he went on. the trial jurist
must fix the limit. In Rosters case,
Justice Laws did not abuse this dis
cretion, Justice Rutledge held.

is better than the others" So she was telling her
self the day letter came from Maastricht
Come at once" it directed, eff you would see
your brother, Wilem, alive"
Though Captain Keitzel, she got travel permit.
BY weary stages, she finally reached Maastricht
and her brothers house. Quivering, she opened
the door of his room, peering into the dimness.
Willem. her big brother, dozed weakly on his bed.
One hand, horribly mutilated lay upon the cover
let Wilem looked at her, but said nothing.
Brother" began Emma, give come Sister is
here, darling. What's the matter? love you,
Willem."
Willem kept on looking at her with eyes that
not. Eyes that longer linked to
brain. Emma sank down by his side, speaking,
with soft words little intimate memories of their
family. Things she hoped would somehow reach
through to poor Willem's mind and make him
realize he was not dying alone. But her brother
turned from her tenderness. And as twilight
thickened Wilem Eman died.
After the funeral Emma heard the explanation.
AS punishment for sabotage, the Germans had
seized at random hundred Dutchmen. Innocent
men, most of them. In evacuated monastery
they then put these unfortunates to every sort of
torture. They beat them. They hammered their
fingers to pulp. Then they sent their victims
away, with the message:
GO show your friends what happens to Dutch
men who resist u.s."
Travelling back on the train, Emma hardened
her heart. And that night at home pursuing her
idea she begged Captain Ketzel to free her father
"All the others are dead" she mourned, "only
father remains"

spoke against the palpitating of her heart.

He whispered the rest. He kissed her. She burst
into tears.

"It is my price" he said, "for every good thing

foolishness. This is nothing much that l ask of
you. My darling, you will grow to love me. For

At last she yielded. After all wasn't she buy
ing fathers freedom? Again then, the days of her
fate spun on, as she gave herself to her German
lover and was filled with wonder that she did not
hate this man who had taken advantage of her.
And often she revoted that she could feel
sort of tenderness for this German Then destiny,
or dumb blind chance, whirled her to the day
and the hour. shortly before dawn, when she lay
once more in the arms Of her German lover. And
the floor of old house creaked, the wind stirred,
the noises of the right were all about. Then she
did not foresee nor wildly imagine how fate was
pressing her close.
For all at once, foot fell beyond their door.
A hashght was turned full on their faces Emma
raised herself from her lovers arms. And there
he stood
