THE CAPITA I. .IMPKNAI.. SAI.KM. OREOON
AS SHOWMAN
Cedar Rapids, la., Aug. 21 (IP)
The Ire of Mrs. Almee Semple Mc
pherson Hutton, famed woman ev
angelist, continued to burn today
against a description of her as "a
good actress and a clever showman."
Her immediate retort after an in
troduction including that phrase by
George Cloassen, president of the
Linn County Bar association at a
lawyers' dinner, was "I have never
had such an introduction before in
26 years as an evangelist and I am
cross."
CJaassen also referred to her as
"the most widely advertised woman
evangelist in all history."
At a religious gathering later she
said: "If it had been me I would
have Just curled up and nearly died;
but when they attack Christ all the
blood of my ancestors for genera
tions rises in my veins, and I must
stand up and defend my faith."
At the religious meetings she Is
conducting here, she planned to re
peat during the day her assertion
that Claasscn had "put Christ under
fire" and she was retaliating for
that.
Claasscn, meantime, stood by his
guns and declared he "told the
truth." Before calling on her to
speak Saturday Claassen whispered,
according to Mrs. Hutton: "Don't
mind when I introduce you. I un
derstand you are a good sport and
can defend yourself.
In discussing the tilt the evangelist
said: "When I began to speaie i com
them I had not come expecting to
hear that kind of a speech and that
I thought it not nice to put the skids
under me. 1 told them anything said
in the introduction I took with a
grain of salt because the man who
introduced me doesn't believe in
Christ, doesn't pray and believes in
science and evolution instead of the
Bible. It was almost the most excit
ing experience in my life since my
college days."
"She called me an atheist," said
Claasscn, "but I'm not an atheist."

money with two dollars raised by the
state or its municipal districts and
the inability of the state to meet
this stipulation except through spe- '
cial legislation forms the principal
excuse for a special session, there is
little expectation that the legislators
would agree to restriction of a ses
sion to this question alone when
there are other important questions
demanding attention.
Governor Meier has Indicated that
he will not even consider convening
the lawmakers for consideration of
tax legislation for general state pur
poses, taking the position that the
people in the decisive defeat recent
ly handed out to the sales tax pro
posal have made it entirely clear
that they arc opposed to any and all
additional levies. In this the execu
tive will probably find most of the
legislators agreed: in the two months
it took them to devise a snles tax
proposal they got their fill of tax
problems. But the clamor of their
constituents will not permit them to
so easily sidestep other pressing
questions.
Already 35 or more members of
the two houses are reported to be In
favor of revision of the trunk and
bus licensing act, recently declared
invalid in part by Circuit Judge Le
wclllng, to protect highway revenues
and correct inequalities as they op
ply to different classes of trucks.
The lawmakers are awakening to
the fact that they made a mistake
when they permitted attorneys for
the organized truck lines and the
railroads to write the licensing and
regulatory act which is just what
they did at the last session. Almost
the entire act is the result of a suc
cession of concessions and compro
mises engineered by the truck and
railroad lobbyists.
Beer and liquor regulation Is an
other matter that many of the leg
islators are now convinced needs at
tention. In anticipation of repeal of
the 18th amendment by the first of
the year and the prospect of a spe
cial session some of the solons ore
already at work drafting regulatory
legislation to govern hard liquors,
while others, convinced of the need
for regulation of places dispensing
beer outside of cities and towns by
the experience of the past three
months are preparing proposals
along these lines.
One suggestion which is to be ad
vanced at tomorrow's special session
conference is that the state's share
of relief funds be raised through im.
mediate imposition of a state tax
on beer to be provided for in a reg
ulatory act. Sponsors of this plan
assert that It would solve two prob
lems at a single stroke, and assert
that there is no other form of tax
sufficient to raise relief funds which
would bo acceptlble to the public.
Financing of ony relief program
involving a tax levy or bond issue
of any sort would be subject to the
referendum, which requires that the
adopted program must be popular
ns well os practical. The constitu
tion forbids the legislature to attach
the emergency clause to any tax or
bond measure in excess of $50,000.
Tax delinquencies are another
problem which the legislature could
not ignore were it to meet in special
session. So serious has the delin
quency problem become that many
counties have already been forced
upon a warrant basis, and some of
them face the prospect of being un
able to operate after Uie first of
the year unless some means of
bringing In tax moneys is found.
One sugsestion advanced Is that the
old penalties on delinquent taxes
be restored. Others are proposing
that a system of permitting tax pay.
ments to be made in monthly in
stallments be worked out.
If Governor Meier Is willing to
have the lawmakers tackle these
problems he can probably get a ma
jority to agree to thus limit their
deliberations at a special session,
but hardly otherwise. It is only by
agreement of the legislators that
their deliberations can be restricted.
The governor has no authority to
say what, or what not they are to
consider. The only limitation upon a
special session Is that it shall not
endure more than 20 days.

MOB MUTILATES
BODY OF HAVANA
CHIEF OF POLICE
Havana, Aug. 21 JPh Punishment
for leaders of a hate-crazed mob
which took from its new grave the
body of Gerardo Machado's police
chief and burned and mutilated it
was demanded today by several de
partments of the week-old Cuban
government.
As the cabinet of Carlos Manuel
De Cespedes tried to solve the hard
problems of economic peace, there
were other evidences of continu
ing hatred of the previous regime
A manhunt for the few remain
ing Machadoists went on; leaders
of the opposition who had been
forced into exile were coming back,
and soldiers and members of the
ABC secret society began digging
again in Atares castle for bodies
of those who died because of oppo
sition to the Machado regime.
Antonio B. Ainciart, villifled as
the director of bloody and repres
sive measures under the- deposed
president, committed suicide Satur
day night while soldiers and ABC
men closed in on his hiding place.
As soon as soldiers left his place
of burial 2,000 shouting persons
opened the fresh grave, took the
body in a truck to Havana uni
versity, mutilated it, and hoisted it
to the cross bar on an electric
light pol.
Thousands watched the mob pom
gasoline over it and apply a match.
Finally the craw of an ambulance
scattered the crowd and took the1
remains to a morgue.
"Dump It into the sea!" shouted
the mob. "Dump it into the sea!
He Is not fit to be buried in a
cemetery with other human be
ings!' Shortly before the mob began
forming Juan Sampol, nephew and
body guard of Ainciart, shot and
killed himself after being recog
nized by a boy on a street corner.
First, however, Sampol had killed
Jose Aquirre Leon, ABC member.
Also fanning popular indignation
over the regime against which they
rebelled a week, ago was the fun
eral yesterday of four men whose
remains were .found Friday in a
stable at Atares Castle. Tens of
thousands attended the impressive
ceremony.

DISCUSS PLANS
FOR REDUCTION
OF WHEAT CROP
Portland, Ore., Aug. 21 (flV-Plans
for reducing the Pacific northwest's
wheat surplus, estimated at near
40,000,000 bushels, through guaran
teed benefit payments by the gov
ernment for the difference between
the export and domestic price on
shipments to foreign countries, par
ticularly the Orient, were before the
agricultural adjustment adminis
tration hearing here today.
Members of the hearing board
here from Washington, D. C, Doug
las Mclntyre, Victor E. Anderson
and Ray C. Miller, were agreed that
a definite plan would be mad at
the meeting and the purchasing
power of the farmer would be in
creased, though they denied any
knowledge of what the plan would
be, maintaining they had come to
Portland to receive a plan.
Invited to the meeting today
were not only farmers cooperatives
and the producers organizations but
aU interested, including banners,
exporters and steamship lines.
At the hearing the first attempt
to evolve an export plan for a
basic commodity will be made under
the agricultural adjustment admin
istration. It Is the first major move
to insure fulfillmen of the law and
similar hearings will be held on
other basic commodities.
"The object of the whole thing
is to restore the farmers' purchas
ing power which is fulfilling the
provisions of the agricultural ad
justment act. By restoring his pur
phnslni? nower. we mean that the
exportable surplus of wheat will be
reduced so mat aomesuc pnceo
will bo those of between 1909 and
1914 to the farmer. It means that
to him a bushel of wheat will buy
as much as it did in those years,
that his purchasing power wm do
the same now as then," Mr. Mcln
tyre explained. '
