CHARITY WHEAT TAX
SEEKERS ARE SCORED
U. S. Judge Gives Kansas Counties
One Chance in Thousand
to Collect.
By the Associated Press.
TOPEKA. June 29.—Federal Judge i
Richard J. Hopkins ruled yesterday that
Kansas counties seeking to collect taxes ;
assessed against Grain Stabilization
Corporation wheat should be enjoined
from interfering with movement of the
grain to the Red Cross or into market
channels.
Without making a final ruling in the
tax controversy involving directly and
Indirectly the right of Kansas and Its
subdivisions to tax wheat holdings of
the Federal Farm Board agency in the
State, which, on March 1, 1931, amount
ed to 20.000,000 bushels in storage in
31 counties. Judge Hopkins told Max
Wyman, Reno County attorney:
"There isn't one chance in a thou
sand you are ever going to have a
chance to collect. The idea of one j
branch of the Government tying up
another over a mere technicality doesn't
appeal to me. I suppose the Red Cross
needs this wheat for starving humanity."

By the Associated Press.
VATICAN CITY. June 29—Pope
Pius XI paid a visit to the tombs of
his predecessors in the grottos of St. !
Peter's last night and examined the
place among them which he has chosen
for his own final rest.
Above the tomb of Peter, in the
main hall of the basilica, he knelt in
solitary prayer, as Popes have done
for more than 60 years on the eve of
the day set aside for the apostle.
The Pontiff, almost alone in the vast
cathedral, listened to special music
played in a distant chapel and trans
mitted by his own radio station to
loud speakers in St. Peter's.
When Pope Pius chose the tomb he
will occupy among the other Pontiffs,
he remarked:
"I some day also will find sweet re
pose in this place."
But he did not «how his 75 yes·· as
he went through tonight's ceremonies,
! appearing to be in excellent health.

CARDINAL IS GUARDED
ON VISIT TO IRELAND
Anti-Catholic Outbreaks Cause
Move for Safety of Papal
Delegate.
By the Associated Press.
ARMAGH. Northern Ireland, June
29.—Cardinal Lauri. papal legate at
the Eucharistie Congress which closed
in Dublin Sunday, came to Armagh for
a visit yesteraay under the protection
of special precautions.
His route from the border of the
Irish Free State not only was closely
guarded, but it was diverted so that
the prelate entered Ireland's ecclesias
tical capital through a Nationalist,
instead of a Unionist, quarter.
The cardinal visited Cardinal Mac
Rory, Archbishop of Armagh. The
approaches to the archbishop's palace
were thronged, but there were no
untoward incidents.
The precautions to protect Cardinal
Lauri were taken after scores of Cath
olic pilgrims from Northern Ireland
were attacked, stoned and beaten Sun
day on their way to and from the
Eucharistie Congress in an outburst
of the ancient feud between the
Orangemen and Catholics.
