WASHINGTON, D. C, April 12.
Down deep underneath, the adminis
tration's master political minds are
getting a little worried about the
Wirt revolution yarn and all lta
phases. It Is no longer a joke.
They are keeping up a smiling front
but among themselves they are be
ginning to recall what a fantastic
bugaboo did to Al Smith In 1928.
The mall being received by con
gressmen Indicates that the radical
revolution story Is rapidly getting
In that class. Typical Is the letter
received by a senator toe other day
from a Mlssourlan. This citizen had
all the lowdown on the revolution.
He stated he knew that 168.000 rifles
were hidden at a certain spot In Chi
cago; also that trenches were being
dug around the city of Toledo and
were being reinforced with concrete.
He wanted to come on here to testify
about It.
Such fantasies become serious when
they get Into a gcneral-mouth-to
mouth circulation.
The Roosevelt political watchmen
realize there Is a vast number of
voters who do not read the news
papers and keep abreast of the times
and who will fall for ridiculous sto
ries like that. In the backwoods
and the canebrakes you can never
stamp out such fairy, tales when they
get started.
Denials never catch up with orlgl
" nal stories even outside the back
woods. There will always be people
who. will wag their heads and say:
"Where there " is so- ' mucft smoke,
there must be some fire.'
Th moment President Roosevelt i
steps off the train here, he will be j
advised to do someming strong
about it.
It la a far more Important inner i
problem than the current opposition
nut up against the administration by
business In connection with the stock
market and securities bills. Business
Is not so .highly respected as a po
litical force. But backwoods well,
that story has got to be stopped.
You can readily see that such a
-it.i.ftnn mu huvA an Influence for
.-.nri.-.tmn on current administration I
,, I
Mr. Roosevelt Is also going to get
some advice from the other sldo of
the fence.
In New York last Sunday, there was
a quiet little conference between a
representative of the senate banking
committee, one of the authors of the
original stock market regulation bill,
and a close adviser of the president.
. They agreed that the adviser should
go to the president and ask him to
make a public radio appeal for a
stronger regulation bill than the sen
ate committee Is wrtlng.
The most amazing thing about Dr.
Wlrfa public appearance here waa
the fact that .he was counseled by ex
Senator Jim Reed. All Washington
started speculating as to how Jim
Heed ever got mixed up In that thing.
Tho fact seems to be that Wirt's
crowd asked Reed's assistance after
reading dispatches from Washington
Indicating that the house committee
was going to pillory Vic school su
perintendent from Gary. Resistance
against that sort of thing appealed
to Reed. He has never cared much
for the Roosevelt boys, anyway.
- Reed waa a good man for the Job.
He was a master In the gentle art of
legal pillorying when he waa In con
cress. No more hard-boiled, adroit
j riintia croas.examlner ever sat i
congressional commniee
Joe :
Grundv will testify to that
Back stage the Wirt examination
was a spectacular political sideshow.
Speaker Ralney chose three of the
hardest-shelled examiners In the
house as Democratic members of the
committee. The Republicans named
their two members with similar ap
preciation of the political aspects of
the situation.
The Democrats tried to make Wirt
appesr ridiculous. The Republicans
tried to make him a Napoleon. Nei
ther quite succeeded.
A new milk war Is brewing under
the surface In Chicago. It may ex.
plode within a week.
The trouble Is rooted In the fact
that the farmers are not getting paid.
Dealers assert that price cutting haa
put them In a position where they
cannot pay. Yet still further price
cutting Is in prospect.
The matter will not be easy to
settle.

most of Its secret session Tuesday

Melting Snow
Bares Tragedy
In Deep Gully
The objects of Intensive search since their disappearance last November
12, the bodies of Doris Sparks. 27, and Audrea Mardelle , 33, Holly wood
beauty demonstrators, were found this morn Ins on the east approach road
leading toward Crater Lake national park, a short distance from the Junc
tion with The Dalles-California highway. v
The two women had driven around
a "road closed" sign at the Junction
and proceeded toward the park. They
had not gone a great distance when
a fresh fall of autumn snow made
them turn around. This was Indi
cated by tracks Just revealed by melt
ing snow. They were apparently
hurrying back to the main highway
when their Chevrolet cabriolet skid
ded in loose dirt, missed a guardrail
three feet and tumbled approximately
150 feet to the bottom of Sand Creek
canyon.
Died Instantly.
The women were hurled free of the
car and apparently Instantly killed.
One body was 20 feet above it and
the other alongside. One was still
partially covered by snow.
A determined search of the park and
surrounding area was carried on last
December when It was first feared the
beauty experts had met misfortune
in that region. However, deep snow
had so thoroughly covered the land
scape, It was Impossible to locate
them. A second trip this morning
along the bottom of the canyon re
vealed the gruesome find.
Apprehension for the safety of the
women was first felt when they fail
ed to keep an appointment In Klam
ath Palls on the evening of Novem
ber 12, when they were to meet
friends. They had left Spokane the
previous -day and had driven all night
to reach southern Oregon. They were
last recognized at Crescent, Ore

conditions to Crater Lake.
Warned of Trip.
They were warned by a service sta-
J " " I
" XmT Z XT, hi
ties, not to attempt the trip by th
the
east entrance In view of snow oondl
tons.' Failing to heed thla advice
the women .drove around the "road
closed" sign and were on their way
out when tragedy overtook them.
Prior to the search In the Crater
Lake and Klamath county section.
It was thought the girls had driven
into the Columbia gorge. Officers
harbored fears they had met with
foul play, but efforts to locate their
car throughout the. length of the Pa.
clfic coast proved unavailing.
Tho Crater Lake search was carried
on In the face of adverse weather
conditions and covered a period of
several days. The bottom of Sand
Creek canyon was carefully traversed
Every hump In the snow was probed
with long sticks, adding-to the belief
the women were not In that section
However, the mild weather of the peat
spring has melted the snow rapidly
The second trip through the bottom
of tho canyon waa headed today by

The discovery of the bodies of Au
drea Mardelle and Doris Sparks, Hol
lywood beauty culturlsts, near Klam-1
ath Palls today cleared up a mystery
that has occupied police and sheriffs'
officers in this region for months.
Miss Sparks and Miss Mardelle,
members of a party of beauty cultur
lsts traveling out of Hollywood, left
Spokane last November 11, intending,
they said, to drive to Klamath Falls
to' meet other members of the party,
who were "covering" other sections
of the northwest.
When the girls failed to arrive at
Klamath Falls, Sheriff Oeorge Miles
of Spokane county was notified.
After a preliminary search he en
listed tho aid of sheriffs officers of
this area, the state highway patrol
and called upon Oregon authorities
for help.
It was Sheriff Miles' opinion the
girls became confused In the heavy
fog that hung over the region at the
time, and drove their car Into the
Columbia river. That stream was
dragged In several places.
Later airplanes were called Into
the search, and a systematic check
was made over the highway the girls
were believed to have taken.
"We had never completely given
up the search for the girls," William
Burnett, chelf deputy sheriff for Spo
kane county, said, when he was ad
vised of the discovery of the bodies.

House Committee Favors Re
imbursement Up to $2500
for Those With Money
in Defunct Institutions
WASHINGTON, April 13. (AP)
The house banking committee today
approved legislation to pay off depos
itors In closed national banks, but
limited the amount which may be
paid In full to 3,500.
This action came as 127 names
were obtained to a petition to force
the measure by Representative Mc
Leod (R-. Mich.) out of the commit
tee to the house floor for a vote. A
total of 146 signatures are required
for that procedure.
Speaker Ralney ruled that publica
tion of the names of the signers
would be "Improper" until the full
145 were obtained.
The provisions of the bill, as they
now stand, provide for payment to
depositors In alt national, state and
private banks which were closed on
or aftor January 1, 1030, up to (2500.
I,Me 92500 payment also applies to
banks which are now closed, or whloh
have reorganized or reopened with
out payment in full.
House parliamentarians said the ac
tion of the committee nullifies the
effect of the petition to bring the
bill to the floor.
Since the measure Is not privi
leged, it will be necessary for Its
advocates to obtain special legisla
tive rlg,ht of way.
However, with the Democratic lead
ership opposed to bringing the bill
up for action because It Is net an
administration measure, It was con
sidered unlikely that privileged status
will be granted by the rules com
mittee. It has 30 days In which to con
sider reporting the bill for house ac
tion. ELKS TO HONOR '

Range of Super-Inheritance
Tax Made 1 to 60 As
Against 1 to 45 in Exist
ing Schedules on Books
WASHINGTON, April 12. ff) Tl
senate today voted for a big Increase
In inheritance taxes, designed to raise
902.000,000 a year In additional reve
nue. If adopted, an amendment to the
revenue bill by Senator LaFollette
(R., Wis,), making the range of super
Inheritance or estate levies 1 to 80
per cent as against 1 to 45 in exist
ing taw and 1 to 50 In the finance
committee schedule. Exemptions on
gross estates were reduced from 950,
000 to 940,000.
Taxes paid under the super estate
schedule are not subject to the 80
per cent credit for similar taxes pa'd
to states.
There are two schedules of estate
rates under present law, the first
running from 1 to 20 per cent against
which the B0 per cent credit la al
lowed. The LaFollette rates do not
affect the first schedule.
, The newly adopted rates begin on
net estates under 920,000 compared
with 910,000 in existing law, and
graduate upward to 60 per cent of
those over 910,000,000, with an ex
emption of 940,000 on gros seats tea
against 950,000 in existing law. Tho
estate tax- Is paid on the value of
estates transferred after death,
LaFollette explained the composite
rates, on estates under his amend
ment would amount only to about
44 per cent over 910,000,000. He said
the 60 per cent probably would not
apply until 9100,000,000 was reached.
The vote for the LaFollette amend
ment said a 960,000 net estate would
pay 91,600 tax compared with 91,800
in existing law and 90,000 in Great
Britain.
