American Target Of Bomb in Paris i jHertneliJ Swindlers Bilk Aged Woman for Magic Glasses Posing , as Relative of Gover nor, Man Sells Spectacles Represented as "Diamond Crystal and Radium." Fremont, Neb., Oct. 1 19. (Special Telegram.) Eyeglasses, made of diamond crystals and containing ra dium, were guaranteed to an aged Hooper woman, Pauline Schwab, 72, to cure a cataract from which she was suffering. 'The glasses, which proved to be the common variety on sale for a few dollars, were loaned to the . suffering woman after she had made a deposit of $2,959 to in sure their return to the pseudo oc ulist. Dr. Paul E. Martell, the name giv en by the swindler, visited the aged woman at her home with promises to cure her of her affliction. He claimed to be a brother-in-law of Governor McKelvie, and during his visit told his -innocent listener of his intimate acquaintanceship with the governor's family and said frs. Mc Kelvie acted a his stenographer. A flashy certificate purporting to., be hi: license to practice :W we state, was shown, together with a. forged commission showing him to be a member' of the state sheriff's staff. Mrs. Schwab lives alone and is physically infirm. The swindler took advantage' 'of her condition and first obtained $1,900 in Liberty bonds as a guarantee that she would return the glasses. A confederate appeared a few days later and offered her $2,- 800 if she would sell tne glasses. Martell returned in a few days and announced that -the Chicago owners of the glasses demanded more secur ity. Witn tne ,8iw oner in miiiu, the woman readilv agreed to give $1,000 in cash and $59 for the service of the fake oculist When friends learned of the aged woman's predicament they waited several days before notifying the county authorities in the hopes that the swindlers' would return for more money.' Sheriff Condit, when in formed, traced the check to a Den ven bank where it was cashed. He left immediately for Denver in hopes of getting trace of the two men. England to Aid Jobless To Go to Dominions Ant, f)ri 10 (Bv the Asso ciated Press.) The situation in England as regards trade and un rtnnlnvmmi ! worse than at any time since the end of the Napoleonic wars, declared Prime Minister Lloyd George in the House of Commons today in outlining the government's policy on tnese two suDjecis. , At present, he said, there aic 1,750,000 persons" unemployed, and added that the greatest unemploy ment, to. the extent; of 17 per cent was in the metal trades. : He declared that the causes tor this situation could all be summed up in one word war. As a part of the governments nlatt nf alleviation, he said, the government propose to ask parlia ment for an appropriation of another 300,000 to enable ex-service men to emigrate to the dominions.

Governors Want Clauses in Rail Act Repealed Guarantee of Fixed Return to Railroads Unwise and Un economic, Western Ex ecutives Say. Des Moines, Oct. 19. Repeat of clauses in the Cummins-Esch trans portation act, directing the Interstate Commerce commission to fix freight rates on a basis that will give the railroads a 6 per cent return on their valuations, was urged in a resolution adopted by the conference of middle west governors at its closing session here late today. Guaranteeing the railroads a fixed return is unwise and uneconomic, the conference de clared. Ask Rate Reduction. Resolutions were adopted asking a "substantial reduction" in present freight rates, advocating congres sional action to remove doubt as to state jurisdiction over state railroad rates and services, urging reduction of federal reserve bank discount rates in agricultural districts, en dorsing the movement for limitation of armaments, and asserting that the government of the United States should collect the interest on its foreign loans annually. Lengthy discussion took place on a suggestion that the conference should express an opinion on the pending railroad strike crisis, but the view prevailed that it would be impolitic to do so. It should be assumed, several of those present said, that in any critical situation which may develop, federal and state authorities will act constitutionally and in accordance with their oaths of office.. Action Unanimous. Action was unanimous on all the resolutions that were adopted, though some of the conferees said they would have preferred stronger statements. Governor John J. Blaine of Wisconsin, in the discussion on the resolution condemning the fixed earnings clause of the transportation act, urged that the total repeal of the law should be demanded. He said it was nothing short of com munism to give private enterprise a guaranty of earnings. Such a guar anty, he declared, inevitably dis courages initiative and efficiency. He advocated repeal of the whole act on the ground that its essential features are the earnings guaranty and the concentration of rate juris diction in the Interstate Commerce commission in which two respects, he remarked, the conference' was agreed in condemning it. Adoption of a resolution urging amendment rather than repeal was decided on as likely to be of more practical use. State Witnesses wr':'"r Southard Trial Tell Of Paison Evidence '" Twin Falls, Idaho, Oct. 19. The last of the expert witnesses .-which the state will flse- in the .trial of Lyda Meyer Southard, charged with the murder of Edward F. Meyer, her fourth husband, occupied the witness stand today.

Farm 'Bloc' Under Fire In Senate New .lamps" ' '? veny- v1" .lie inch. Says Capital on Strike By ARTHUR SEARS HENNINQ tblraso Tribune-Omaha Ik Ltaard Wr. Washington, Oct 19. With Sena tor Moses of New Hampshire assail ing the agricultural "bloc" for dic tating legislation to "soak the rich" and challenging senators favoring the Smoot manufacturers sales tax "to vote as they think," the senate today resumed consideration of the federal tax revision bill. Chairman Penrose of the finance committee now thinks that the bill can be passed by the senate next week, but unless the conference committee whch will reconcile the senate and house measures acts with unusual dispatch, the bill is not likely to become law much before the mid dle of November. Senator Moses professed to dis cover in the agricultural "bloc" a new "invisible empire" which he dubbed the Ken-Kap-KIan in honor cvf Senators Kenyon and Capper, leaders of the farm group. Should Keep Pledges. After quoting frorii the republi can and democratic platforms of 1920, which promised the people relief from war taxes, simpler tax laws and laws fit for peace, so that wealth would not be withdrawn from productive enterprise, he said: "The reaction to these demands, these promises, is now before us in a multiplex form. First, that of the revenue bill as it came from the house; second that of the bill as it came from the finance committee here, and third, that of the amend ents forced upon committee recogni tion by that division of the 'invisible empire' which now seems to be rul ing us and which may be styled, I hope without irreverence, as the Ken-Kap-KIan. And in this latter connection I wish to record myself as standing with the senators from Indiana as a member of the republi can "bloc" which meets so seldom and whose opinions are apparently of little consequence. Capital on Strike. "This measure is plainly drawn under the inspiration of . the inspiring slogan soak the rich. ' I hold no brief for the ricb; neither I or of my kin have.xxertoad within-their circle. But I can not help thinking that the rich may learn from much buffeting, . even as Peter the Great learned . from- the repeated assaults of Charles XII, how to fight. In deed, sir, they, have already learned. Capital has gone on strike. There is a point at which taxation of the rich reaches its saturation point. This point is variously esti mated by both expert and bv gen eral opinion to stand somewhere be tween 25 and 35 per cent. If it is increased the rich that is to say, those possessing capital betake themselves and their accumulations from the field of endeavor and enter into cloistered retirement, where tax exempt securities afford more ample and complete surcease from the im portunities of the tax gatherer." Favors Smoot Plan. Senator Moses observed that the. agricultural "bloc" had taken care to reduce surtaxes on that class of incomes in which congressional sal aries fell. He advocated the Smoot amendment providing a 3 per cent tax on manufacturers sales. "That proposal wipes out all the nuisance taxes which, have burdened our people from the child with his base ball to the aged with .his medi cine bottle," said Senator Moses. "It places taxation upon incomes at a point where accumulated resources will not go into the cave of hiding afforded by tax exdmption, but will once more march boldly into, the field of expanding commercial en terprise. And, as best of all its pro visions, it provides in the sales tax which the senator proposes, a fruit ful source of revenue, easily col lectable, payable at frequent stated intervals and bearing vwith equality upon all the people. It is based upon what I regard as one of the safest indications of a man's ability to pay, namely his ability to buy." Action on the question of tax ex emption for foreign traders was de ferred until tomorrow after Senator LaFollefte of Wisconsin and ; a number of democrats had severely assailed the proposal. Justice of Peace Arraigned As Keeper of Gambling House Milwaukee, Oct. 19. Walter Koe nig, Wauwatosa (Wis.) justice of the peace, and five young members of prominent Wauwatosa families, were arrested -in a raid on Mr. Koenig's home today. Koenig was charged with conducting a gambling house in his judicial chambers and was released on $10 bail. The others were charged with being inmates. Sophomores Suspended Minneapolis, Oct 19.

From every corner of the land, from country, town and city, comes the same news, that the housing ca pacity of our public schools is in. adequate; that tens of thousands of pupils have no place for their stud ies: that teachers cannot be listed in sufficient numbers and that school revenues are insufficient. "More even than money and en dowments, our educational establish ment needs the devout, unselfish sus taining support of the people moved' by- instincts of patriotism and serv ice." Enduring Friendship. Yorktown, Va., Oct. 19.
