Whale Meat as Food
Whaling has now been established
on a scientific basis by tha Norwegian
Industry. After years of extravagant
killing when nothing but the blubber
was utilized, whales are now being
utilized completely, boneless whale
meat being an Important product.
It was considered necessary last year
to grant whaling permits under conces
sions covering all Norwegian waters,
in order to prevent undue competition
and to Insure the best utilization of
the whale. Fresh whale meat com
pares favorably with other meats, ac
cording to scientific tests conducted by
Christiania university.

TRY TO SMOOTH
G. 0. P. SQUABBLE
Czarism Methods of Butler
Roils Old Timers in *
Party
BY PHILLIP A. ORME,
Universal Service Correspondent.
Washington, June 15.—A redraw
ing of the republican party align
ment was actively under way Sunday
afernoon on the presidential yacht
Mayflower. In conference with
Frank W. Mondell, permanent chair
man of the Q. O. P. convention at
Cleveland and Senator Smoot of
Utah, skilled politicians, President
Coolidge attempted to solve the prob
lem of reconciliation between tho
“old guard,” the new idea and the
butler regime.
The Mayflower cruise, a weekly
affaAr, gains real importance this
week end as a preliminary step in
healing the well established schism
between William M. Butler, chair
man of the new republican national
committee and Coolldg's campaign
manager, C. Bascom Slemp, the pres
ident's secretary, the old timers, as
instanced by Senator Watson of In
diana. and the more or less conserv
ative farm group which caucused on
a vice presidential nominee in Cleve
land.
Old Timers Offended.
Mondell and Smoot are well aware
that Butler's czarlsm must be ended
If any semblance of party solidarity
Is to be brought about. The presi
dent's manager, now busily arrang
ing western headquarters In Chicago,
succeeded during his brief stay in
Cleveland, In offending the old line
republicans, the farm belt delegates
and Secretary Slemp, a most astute
politician, and now admittedly the
man who should have had Butler’s
place.
Mondell's counsels will be of val
ue In giving the president the "low
down” on the scenes behind the con
vention. Smoot, a seasoned hand in
such affairs, described Just what
may be expected from the west as
a result of Charles Q. Dawes’ nom
ination as Coolidge’s running mate.
During the coming week, the first In
which Coolidge’s captains will have
a chance to start "selling” him to the
country, all dissatisfaction and en
mity must be assuaged so far as
is possible.
Watson in Revolt.
“Jim” Watson, the present mouth
piece of the “old guard,” was In open
revolt against Butler after the first
day of the convention, and this was
the sole reason he had himself put
up for the vice presidential nomina- *
tlon. Slemp was so disguested with
Butler’s unyielding attitude in se
lecting a nominee that he Inveighed
against him in forceful language
after the ballot in which It was shown
Representative Burton of Ohio, could
not get sufficient votes to win for
nomination. Slemp left hastily for
Washington as soon as he and others
had put over the Dawes nomination.
The farm group is particularly dis
gruntled. Representatives of 15
states held a caucus in Cleveland
and put forth the names of 10 men
who might be acceptable for the vice
presidential choice. They were sum
moned to Butler’s hotel suite, pre
sumably to present their views. Once
there, they were told that President
Coolldge's choice was Senator Borah
of Idaho, and It was strongly In
timated that they should endorse
him.
Scheme Shattered.
That Butler scheme was shattered
the same night when Borah, In no
uncertain language, made it known he
had no idea of accepting the empty
honor of second place on the ticket.
The farm group felt they had been
tricked and robbed of united force In
the voting for a vice presidential
nominee next day.
As regards the labor and soldier
vote, the party steerers are resigned
to whatever losses may ne sustained
at the polls. Just before the vote
which put Dawes over. Senator Pep
per of Pennsylvania, consulting with
delegation leaders from Massachu
setts, New York and Ohio answered
the anxious query: “Won't Dawes
lose us all the labor votes? By say
ing: “We've lost labor anyhow.
There’s no use in making any bones
of that.”
The soldier’s vote, it Is felt, will be
fairly safe. The republican heads
argue it this way:
“It was a nominally republican
congress which put over the adjusted
compensation bill.
"Coolldge vetoed It, truly, but then
Ooolidge is the head of the party
which gave the veterans their just
due. They will vote for the repre
sentative Of the political dlvisior
whlc voted In their Interests."

LAWYER DEFIES
KLAN THREATS
District Attorney Warned to
Drop Cases Against Penn
sylvania Klansmen
BY CHARLES B. PARMER
Universal Service Staff Correspon
dent
Johnstown, Pa., June 15.—The Ku
Klux Klan, 14,000 strong In Cambria
county, has threatened to kill Dis
trict Attorney D. P. Welmer of
Cambria county, if he brings an
other klansman to trial on charges
of murder. Said the district attor
ney with a shrug of his thin
shoulders:
‘‘Sure, I’ve received those threats,
but—"
Walking to a window of hie office,
he gazed for a moment out toward a
spur of the Alleghenies, then strok
ing back his heavy graying hair, he
continued:
“Over in that Jail at Ebensburg
there now are 17 more of that klan
group, all facing three murder
charges each, as a result of that riot
at Lilly, April 5, when three men
were killed.
“Each one of those men Is going
to be brought to trial. And the
thirteen residents of Lilly who face
the same charges—they're going to
be tried, too. Of course, I've been
threatened, but—who worries about
such things? the trials gon on Mon
day. We'll try a Lilly resident,
William Monahan, I guess, and Jhen
another klansman. These trials
don’t stop for mere threats. Why
worry about threats?’’
But if the district attorney Isn't
worrying, others are. A section of
the Metropolitan hotel in Ebensburg
has been turned Into a barracks for
state troopers who have been assign
ed to maintain law and order dur
ing the trial.
These latest threats against Wel
mer are understood to have been
caused by that officials determina
tion to f y Sam Evans again on two
other charges of murder. On Sat
urday Evans, a stalwart and taci
turn klansman. was found not guilty
of murdering Frank Miasco.

BILL’ BRENNAN
SHOT DOWN BY
N. Y. GUNMEN
Well Known Pugilist Mur
dered in Cafe Sunday
Two Men Arrested
BY HOWARD R. BANOS,
Universal Service Correspondent.
New York, June 16.—Lured from,
his cabaret, the Tla Juana club, at
fiOO West One Hundred Seventy
first street, William (Bill) Brennan,'
one of only two men who ever went
the route with Champion Jack
Dempsey, was shot twice through
the body and killed early Sunday
by one or more of five men who
lay In wultlng.
An unkempt grey suited man, who
gave his name as James Hughes,
and who police bellve to be a mem-*
ber of a West Side gun gang, Is In'
police headquarters charged with
homicide following his capture after\
an exciting automobile chase In
upper Broadway. Hughes Is the man
who called Brennan Into the pass-,
ageway back of the cabaret, where'
the pugilist was shot. Arrested at
the same time was Frank Rossi, an
occupant of the taxi In which
Hughes fled, and said to be Hughes'
companion. He is a taxicab driver.
Pistol Is Found.
Two shells from an automatic
pistol were found near the spot
where Brennan fell. A .25-cal!ber
automatic pistol was picked up on
the running board of the taxi com
mandeered by the fleeing Hughes.
Anotfi?V man. James Cullen, a
state trooper, who was one of a
party of guests being entertained
by Brennan, was shot through the
neck as he attempted to capture
the prize fighter’s assailants. He
Is Iti a critical condition at Colum
bus hospital.
Lost In the maze of passageways
at the rear of the Tla Juana club,
the two men arrested, Hughes and
Rossi, beat Into unconsciousness
Police Lieut. John Hagerty, who.
hearing the shots, dashed In through
the rear of the cabaret.
Brennan Called Out.
Brennan was lolling on a divan
In his luxuriously appointed club,
chatting with a party of friends.
Among them was his sister, Shirley,
an actress, known on Broadway as
Shirley Sherman, and with whom
Brennan lived, Hughes came In
und tapped Brennan on the shoul
der. saying:
‘‘Bill, can I see you a minute?”
"Certainly,” Brennan replied, and
arose to follow Hughes tli-ough n
heavy black curtain at the rear of
the room. He seemed to know
Hughes well.
Scarcely had the swish of the
curtains ceased, when two shots
were heard. Brennan's sister dashed
for the spot and says site saw
five men running down the corri
dor. She < aught up with Hughes
and attempted to detain him, but
he drew a revolver and fired at
her. The shots went astray and ho
shook the girl off and threw her
to the floor.
Hughes and Rossi, In attempting
to escape, became confused und
were compelled to smash their way
through glass doors at the end of
the corridor. The other three fled
through an alley.
Policeman Beaten.
The sound of the crashing glass
brought Police Lieutenant Hagerty,
who was in plain clothes, dashing
around from Hie Broadway stile.

finally beaten Into unconsciousness.
By this time other patrolmen had
arrived.
Rushing into the street. Hughes
commandeered a passing taxi, and
with Rossi sped up Broadway. Pa
trolmen in another cab gave chase
and finally caught the fugitives at
Broadway and One Hundred Sev
enty-second street.
They were questioned continuously
throughout the day, but sullenly re
fused to tell the reasons for tho
shooting. It is believed that Bren
nan’s death resulted from a dispute
with bootleggers.
Brennan was 31 years old and
married. He had a long and varied
ring career, in which he has stood
up with the best of them. He had
only been knocked out twice and
both times the knockout was admin
istered by Jack Dempsey. His fight
in Madison Square Harden four years

the champion for 12 rounds, was one
of the remarkable milestones In his
life as a pugilist

Life Tables, 1920
Assuming that you are the average

Tour earning power will decrease

This sounds sensational. It is sen
sational. But it is true—and it is
something to which the wise man or
woman >rill give serious thought.
Of course, it is not natural, or right.
It is the direct result of an artificial
mode of life—of careless eating, sleep
lessness, and stimulated nerves. Nature
provides a danger signal—fatigue—to
warn when tho body needs rest. The
person who regularly deadens the
fatigue signal by the use of a drug is
overriding the warning of nature.
That is what coffee does. The
average cup of coffee contains 1% to
8 grains of the drug caffeia—classified
as a poison. This is a dose of caffe in
of the size often administered by phy
sicians in cases of heart failure. It
is a powerful stimulant. It appears to
give new strength by deadening the
fatigue signal. Actually, this new
strength is robbed from the body’s
own reserve.
Coffee contains no nourishment. Its
only virtues, as a beverago, are its
warmth and flavor. A good, hot, drug
less drink is a benefit with every meal.
Millions enjoy such a drink in
Postum. • A drink made of whole
wheat and bran, skillfully roasted, with
a little sweetening—nothing more. A
