DAWES TAKES CRUSADE TO COUNTRY Tour Will Take Him New England, Central and Western States WASHINGTON, April 30 Vice President Dawes will personally carry his crusade changes in the Senate in parts of the country this summer. PROSPERITY EVIDENT IN LARGE CITIES, SAYS W. H. Schureman East and mid-west will be in good shape to consume So. Cal.'s valencia crop when the first of the fruit arrives ten days or two weeks hence, W. H. Schureman, manager of the Anaheim Citrus Fruit Ass'n asserted today, following his return from a trip to New York and Chicago and intervening points. Prosperity is evident in both those cities, and also at Albany, Buffalo and Detroit, all of which take considerable citrus fruit. Schureman judges principally from the volume of business in progress. Severe weather, however, has visited most of this north-eastern section of the country. Schureman went east principally to investigate at fire, hand the condition of oranges that had undergone the Brogdex and Brogdite systems which directors of his house recently installed. By these methods the fruit is treated for blue mold in a liquid, and then the outer pores sealed with a film of paraffin to preserve it. Comparatively little decay was evident in fruit which the Anaheim manager examined at the various markets. Market conditions are better even that they have been, and the fruit trade generally is optimistic. WHEELER GIVEN TWO-YEAR TERM Two years in federal prison at Leavenworth, Kansas, was the penalty imposed on Chandler R. Wheeler, former registrar by U.S. Judge James. The sentence will come as a strong surprise to many Anaheimers who have followed the case. The charge against Wheeler was receiving stolen government property—part of $23,000 taken from a bough of the local postoffice on Dec. 27, 1923. He is declared to have received $8440. Sentencing of Wheeler marks apparently the last chapter in the robbery and its aftermath, in which four well-known Anaheimers were involved.

ARREST THREE ON LIQUOR CHARGES E. G. Phipps, 27. Fulerton and N.A. Richards, 28. and Ray WASHINGTON, April 30 Vice President Dawes will personally carry his crusade changes in the Senate in parts of the country this summer. The vice president's tour will take him to Alabama, Kentucky Indiana, Ohio, Kansas, the west and probably again in New England. His tentative schedule calls for a speech in Birmingham A.May 27, and thereafter speech in Kentucky in June, Indiana and Ohio in June and July. Kansas in August, the far west September or October and New England later. The fundamental strategy of the Dawes campaign is to spice up the states of Senators who are leading members of senate rules committee, through which he must get his refoil before they can be adopted by the senate itself. His speech in Birmingham a tribute to Sen. Oscar A. Wood, Democrat, and a member of the committee who is only Democrat who has railed to his side in his fight, and likely to be the only one. Kansas is the home state Sen. Charles Curtis, Republican leader, who so far has not omitted himself and Indiana the home of Sen. Jim Wat assistant leader, also non-omitted and of Sen. Ralston D. Orcat. All are members of rules committee. The far western invasion, Kentucky and Ohio speeches not strictly parts of this gram of assault on the committee members but calculated as general appeals to country from separated point. His friends expect him to vade New England once because it is the stronghold rules committee members of Maine, Moses of New Hampshire and Dale of Vermont. The scoffing attitude ofator Moses to the Dawes paign is believed almost ceil to take Dawes north again invite a showdown with M before his constituents. 35 INJURED IN TEXAS STOCK KYLE, Tex., April 30.—Temporary hospital is filled CADETS ASSIST IN STARCH FOR CHILD NORTHFIELD, Vt., April 30.—Three hundred members of the Nebraska University Cadet Corps responded today to call for volunteers to aid in the search for 11 year old Lucille Chatterton and her accused kidnapper, Early Woodward, an ex-convict.

The workday individual with hours from nine to five should look upon the man "higher up" with pity, not envy, he told the United Press today, as he left forever the high salaried position he had striven forty years to attain. "Big business" demands 24 hours of one's time," he said. "I can say from experience that it utterly im-possible for a man in bigness to devote the nec time to his job, and conti run his home as it shou run. "We of big business so know our wives. It's just conference after another you have to keep business your mind every minute, fore, the only alternative, wants to get acquainted ones' wife and family, is sign.

Shepherd, testified today that Shepherd's attorney had "filled me "BIG THREE" WIN FIRST VICTORY BERLIN, April 30—Germanys "big three"—Hindenburg, Luther and Stresemann — have won their first victory against those is Germany who would sabotage of the safety pact. The combined forces of the president elect, chancellor and foreign minister were represented in Luther's speech before the Industrie Under Handelstag yes. day and it was evident from comment today that internal saboteurs of the pact were beaten. This safety pact, which the chancellor defended against attacks of ultra nationalists, is one proposed by Stresemann. It would involve Germany, France, Belgium and England in mutual guarantees of safety and non-interference. (The French foreign office announced yesterday that negotiations regarding the pact would proceed. Austen Chamberlain, British foreign minister, told the House of Commons Europe was for the moment too unsettled politically for progress towards the agreement.) Extreme Nationalists attacked the pact on the ground that it surrenders Alsace-Lorraine forever. Addressing leading industrialists and business men yesterday Chancellor Luther announced that Germany would proceed with her part of the negotiations to bring about the security agreement. It was recognized he was speaking for Hindenburg, with whom he had consulted previously. Politicians contend Luther routed foreign objectors to the pact by his announcement that Germany's foreign policy is to remain unchanged when Hindenburg becomes president. Inauguration day has again been set back and Hindenburg now probably will take the oath May 11 or 12. Asserts Attorney For Shepherd Plied Him With Liquor CHICAGO, April 30—Earl P. Clarke, an important state witness against William D. Shepherd, testified today that Shepherd's attorney had "filled me up on Scotch whiskey and offered me $5000 to change my testimony." Clarke's testimony came at the resumption of the inquest into the death of Billy McClintock, millionaire orphan. Shepherd is accused of innoculating the youth with typhoid fever germs in an effort to obtain the McClintock $1,000,000 estate. William Scott Stewart, Shepherd's attorney, met me in a newspaper office," Clarke said. "He filled me up on Scotch whiskey and then offered me $5,000 to change my testimony. He said that all I needed to do was to sign an affidavit denying all I had testified to previously. "Stewart threatened to prosecute me for an abortion if I refused, but I told him to go ahead—he didn't have anything on me." Clarke, who testified previously at the inquest, was the first witness to link Shepherd with Dr. C. C. Falman, the dapper president of a questionable correspondence medical school. Shewas once an employee at Faiman's "National University of Sciences." As a result of Clarke's testimony, Faiman was arrested and confessed giving typhoid germs to Shepherd with instructions as to how they should be administered by Billy McClintock to cause death. Clarke testified today that he was induced by a newspaper reporter to go to his office and there he met Stewart and had the conversation concerning the bribe. He said it ended when he offered to fight Stewart and the attorney refused. Stewart, formerly an assistant to State's Attorney Robert E. Crowe, recently went into private practice with W. W. O'Brien as his partner. Shepherd retained both of them to defend him against the murder charge. JUNIOR COLLEGE STAGES CARNIVAL Fullerton junior college students will hold a carnival on the campus.
