Veterans of Capital Hill
Face Bitter Battles to Re
tain Posts is Forecast
for November Election
Br HERBERT FLUMMER
WASHINGTON As battle plapa
for the November election shape up,
it becomes evident that some of the
men who nave almost become Insti
tutions on capltol bill because of
their long service face bitter fights
to retain their posts.
And If the democrats fulfill their
own predictions It will be a mourn
ful day for the republicans on the
senate side of the hill next March 4.
No less a person than Senator Moses,
republican of New Hampshire, has
admitted the possibility of a demo
cratic senate after that date. Repub
lican control now hangs by the slen
derest margin, the party division ie
lng 48 republicans, 47 democrats and
one farmer-labor. Even the slightest
shift In the political winds might
bring about a complete shake-up In
the organization of that body.
Old Guard 'On Spot'
The democrats are out a-gunnlng.
There are a half-dozen senators at
least the very backbone of the Old
Guard whom they have definitely
put "on the spot."
One is Reed Smoot of Utah, the
oldest senator of them all In point
of service. Continuously since 1003
the tall Utahan has clung to Is
eat. It the democrats could "bag"
Smoot In the fall there would Indeed
be rejoicing In that camp. An apostte
of the doctrine of high tariffs, con
servative In all of his political be
liefs, Smoot hss theories of govern
ment differing from most democrats.
Then there's Jim Watson of In
diana, the republican leader of the
senate. Much as they like the Indl-
anan personally, much as they would
miss his back-slapping and Incessant
handshaking, his defeat probably
would be considered In much the
same way as that of Smoot.
He, too, Is one of the Old Guard
has been since he first came 1o
congress as a member of the house
back In 1894. He has been and Is
regular of regulars In all his poll
ileal thinking.
The slow-moving, slow-thinking
Wesley Jones of Washington Is an
other the democrats are shooting at.
Chairman of the appropriations com
mittee, he yields to no one In his
party regularity.
There Are Others
"The tall Sycamore from Connec
ticut" Hiram Bingham la another.
Democrats haven't forgotten how he
tried to put them "on the spot" for
their prohibition plank after the Chi
cago convention. The sharp-tongued,
wisecracking Moses is still another.
Serious "Sammy" Shortrldge of
California Is also, as are the Preal
dent's good friends, Glenn of Il
linois; the bald, bespectacled Oddle
of Nevada, and Stelwer of Oregon.
Democrats would chortle to see any
of them fall by the wayside.

NO MUSEUM FOR
MIT DECLARES
IE'
HOLLYWOOD Lee Duncan Is
sentimental fellow who lent asham
ed of It.
When his dog Rln-Tln-Tln died.
Duncan received numerous wires and
letters offering money for the prlvl
lege of preserving the canine movie
star for museum .purpose. Some peo
ple might have taken the highest bid,
but not Duncan.
"No," he said, Rlnty was my pal. I
owe him all I have. Be was always
close to me, and now that he's gone
I want to keep him with me let him
rest."
So "Rlnty" Is burled In the back
garden of Duncan's home, where the
tall bronzed man with graying hair
lives with his mother. The grave is
unmarked, except by a white rose
bush.
Duncan, who "educated" Rln-Tln-Tln,
and many other dogs Including
"Rlnty, Jr.," who will carry on the
name In pictures, always directed the
dog star, even after talkies complica
ted things. But the microphone did
not change his methods of direction.
In every Rln-Tln-Tln talkie, Dun
can spoke his commands to his pet
as usual, but his voice was not heard
In the picture because by accurate
timing It was kept from the sound
track a matter of "tuning out" by
switching a dial In the control room.
If anyone has the notion that a
man can take a dog and let the dog
work for him, as Duncan seems to
have done, he would be disillusioned
by watching the real work the dog's
master does, "Rlnty" did the work,
but Duncan worked twice as hard,
with endless patience and kindness.
Duncan isn't strong for "dressing
up" and "going out in society." He
prefers overalls and staying home. It's
one secret of his success with dogs
he plsys with them.

Silent Giant' of Japan's
Military Off to Manchuria
As Emperor's Representa
tiveWill Rule Vast Area
By GLENN BABB
TOKYO (AP) The "silent giant"
of the Japanese army, General Nobu
yoshl, has gone to Manchuria as the
emperor's all-powerful representative
In that region.
His silence is literal, a by-word
In the army, but "giant" refers to hts
professional standing, rather than his
physical stature.
By decision of the government and
with the emperor's own sanction, all
Japanese agencies In what the em-'
plre's diplomats would have the world
believe Is the Independent state of
Manchoukuo. have been consolidated.
Military, diplomatic and admlnlstra-,
tlve functions have thus been concen
trated in the person of the stoical
Muto.
Wields Big Powers
His post at Changchun, capital of
the new state, probably is without
parallel In the world today. It car
ries all-embracing control over the
destinies of an alien land and 30,
000,000 alien people.
Alongside the shadowy sovereignty
of Henry Pu-Yi, former boy emperor
of China and now chief executive of
Manchoukuo, the general stands as
embodiment of Japan's might snd as
actual ruler of Manchuria and por
tions of Mongolia.
He Is commander of the Japanese

of military education until May
37. He resigned then, assuming tech
nical responsibility for eleven army
cadets wbo aided the assassination M
former Premier Tsuyoshl Inukat and
the series of bombings that terror
ized Tokyo May 15.
There was considerable popular
feeling against the terrorists at that
time and the army had to supply a
"goat." But that the role was only
temporary is indicated by Muto's re
turn to high office.
The powerful clique of younger
officers now dominant In the army
consider Muto as one of the sblest
exponents of their ambitions to
spread the glory of Japanese arms on
the continent.

loan for the new atate of Manchou

Loss of the money put Into the
