President and High Officials
Present at Final Rites
for Famous Jurist
Sleet Falls Upon Scene
By W. H. Mylandrr
Associated Press Statt Writer.
WASHINGTON, March 8. (AP)
While President Roosevelt and other
notables stood with uncovered heads
In a heavy sleet storm, the body of
Oliver Wendell Holmes was burled to
day among the nation's military
heroes tn Arlington national cemetery.
Only partly sheltered by a canopy,
the president stood with uncovered
head as the distinguished Jurist's cas
ket was lowered Into a grave.
When the casket on a black-draped
caisson arrived at the grave the p real
dent already was waiting on the arm
of the military aide.
Mrs. Roosevelt, who attended fun
eral services In All Souls Unitarian
church, took her position beside her
husband as soldiers bore the body to
Its resting place.
The president's face was solemn
and hla eyes blinked rapidly aa the
words of the 23rd Psalm were repeat
ed by the Rev. Dr. Ulysses G. B.
Pierce.
Seven o"f the nine Justices of the
supreme court bowed with the presi
dent as soldiers fired a parting salute
and a bugler sounded taps.
Justices Brandies and Van Devanter
' did not venture out Into the weather
, Several hundred persons braved a
chill wind blowing flurries of snow to
stand outside All Souls Unitarian
church on upper Sixteenth street, as
the Reverend Dr. Pierce conducted a
simple funeral service.
It Included a brief scriptural read
ing, solemn music and the reading of
one of Mr. Holmes favorite poems.
There were seats for less than 100
of the general public, admitted to the
gallery.
The remainder of the church was
filled with close friends of the late
"great liberal" of the supreme court,
and representatives of the bar and
the government.

General Kondylls, who dropped his
war portfolio to direct the govern

heavy weather and faced further
difficulties in the Struma river eec-J

rains and melting snow overflowed Its
banks and flooded the entire district.
Sol newa of the operations of the
rebel fleet Indicated it was' resorting
to reprisals as a result of the Turkish
embargo on Greek ships placed at the
request of the Athens government.
A report from Istanbul said the
rebel flagship Averoff had stopped
the Turkish steamer Konla which was
en route to Smyrna and conducted It
to Mytilene.
General Kondylls unleashed his
plane attack after Premier Tsaldarls
received a report from the minister
of war that yesterday's aerial efforts
"were In vain."
During the previous efforts two of
the planes were forced to return be
cause of fog and one fell In a gale.
The crew were saved by using para
chutes. General Kondylls said: "Toe

been working on uniting the organ!'

and Hugh S. Johnson, former NBA
head, but few would comment.
"What did you think of it?" Sena
tor Bilbo (D., Miss), was asked.
"He didn't say anything to make
me think," he replied.
The senate post office committee
planned Its fifth successive meeting
behind closed doors late today to act
on Long's resolution for an investiga
tion of Postmaster-General Farley.
Clark Charges Pemagoguery
It was Senator Clark (D.. Mo.), who
has frequently challenged Long's tac
tics on the floor, who hurled the
"demagoguery" retort to the "king
fish's" charge that the whole "Roose
velt crowd" was out to get him be
cause he had informed the world
their "tangled messes and noble ex
periments would not work.1
Observers noted thai, after assail
ing the new dent as a "St. Vitus
dance" and Hugh S. Johnson as a
general who "never smelled powder
or heard a cap snap," the Louisiana
dictator seized the opportunity to
attempt, before his huge radio audi
ence, to hammer home his "share
the wealth" Ideas.
They wondered if that were not an
emphatic new indication of an ef
fort to gather strength for the 1036
campaigns In which some observers
foresee the possibility of a third
party movement.
Joke to Jolt n son.
Of the men who hare struck at
Long In the past few days, only
Johnson had any Immediate com
ment on last night's speech. The
former blue eagle chief who Is In
Providence. Rhode Island, said: "It's
a great Joke" and for the time being
let it go at that. He Is saving his
fire until after Father Charles E.
Coughlln of Detroit replies Monday
night to the Johnsonian charge that
both the priest and the Louisiana
ren a tor are demagogues appealing to
the "abused babies" of depression
Senator Robinson of Arkansas, the
Democratic leader who has tangled
with Long on the senate floor, tuned
in on the speech last night, but
had no comment. He told newsmen
who talked with him while the
speech was going on that he hadn't
heard anything to which he wanted
to reply.
Sen. Rnllev I'nlnterented.
Senator Bailey of North Carolina.
another whom Long has threatened
to send to political oblivion, said he
hadn't heard the speech and "wasn't
interested." Neither wiw Senator Byrd.
Virginia Democrat who denounced
Long as a demagogue In a recent
speech.
Long flailed hla arms as much aa
over as he contended In the rarito
speech that the White House had de
clared war on him and chosen "the
late and lamented, the pampered ex
crown prince" of the blue eagle to
make the "lead-off speech."
But the "Klngflsh" departed from
his custom In one respect he had
prepared a manuscript, which he fol
lowed part of the time. One of his
departures from It was his disparag
ing reference to Johnson "a military
prowess. Another waa hla contention
that when Johnson went otit of NRA
he prepared "a blistering statement"
which never saw the light of day.
, run pit by Wall Street.
The reason it was suppressed, he
said, was that "Wall Street might
want to loan him to some other
president In the future." Once he
changed a more elegant appellation
for his foes to the phrase "those
birds opposing me."
"God save the country from the I
misery and distress of that gang." he i
said.
To the support of his plan to cut
the wealth of all rich men down to
13.000.000 or 4.000.000 and otherwise
distribute riches, he summoned the
Bible and the compact made by the
Pilgrim fathers.
"While my urgings are declared by
some to be the ravings of a mad
man." he said, "and by such me.s as
General Johnson as insincere bait
of a pled piper, If you will listen to
me you will find that it is restating1
the laws handed down by God to j
man."
Of Johnson, he said that "this
erstwhile prince of the deranged
alphabet makes ready to appear at
the funeral of NRA like unto the
cotored lady in Mississippi who there
asserted: 'I la de wife of dese remains'."
Soys He's Target. I
Declaring that "the Roosevelt ad
ministration. Mr. Johnson. Mr. Far- 1
ley. Mr. Astor and all their spoilers
and upell binders" are gunning for
him because they think he is the
'cause of their misery." he said:
"They are like old Davy Crockett.
who went out to hunt a possum.
He saw In the gleam of the moon
light that a possum In the top of the
tree waa going from limb to limb.
He shot and missed. He saw tho pos
sum again. He fired a second time
and missed again. Soon he discovered
that it was not a possum he saw
at all In the top of that tree. It was
a louse In his own eyebrow."
Same Set of Cooks.
The "kitchen cabinets" under Presi
dents Roosevelt and Hoover were the
same, he said "maybe you see a lit
tle change In the man waiting on
the tables, but back In the kitchen
the same Bet of cooks,"
Mr. Hoover's plan, he said, was to
plow up every foxirth row of cot
ton, but Mr. Roosevelt plowed up
every third row.
"So It has been that while millions
have starved and gone naked; so it
has been that while babies have cried
and died for milk; so It haa been
that while people have begged for
meat and bread Mr. Roosevelt's ad
ministration has sailed merrily
along."
As for NRA. he said it became a i
"national scandal." Johnson went i
out "as the scapegoat" and If an
NRA parade were called now "you
couldn't get enough people for a
funeral march."
"More men are now out of work
than ever." he said, "the debt ot
the United States has gone up an
other ten billion dollars, tfhere Is
starvation; there Is homelessness:
there is misery on every hand, and
corner, but mtnd you. In the mean
time, Mr. Roosevelt has had. his way."
"I Told You So" Irks.
He said that he had told "Hoover's
crowd It wouldn't do" and had given
the same warning to "Roosevelt's
crowd." Now. he said, "they are In
a rage t Huey Long because I have
nald T told you so."
The senate post office committee
was expected to make a decision soon
on Long's demand for a sweeping in
vestigation of Postmaster General
Farley, The committee received yes
terday from Farley a denial of all
new charges Long recently filed
against him.

Approving a decision of the petro

Ickes today ordered the Shell Oil
company to recognlr five unions

all employes tn California.
The board, with Ickes approval,
overruled the contention of previous
employe representatives that results
of an employe election should be

"It is the belief of the board." the
decision said, "that section 7. article

"It Is obvious that this streiietri

"To the extent, therefore, that
