tional Capital, the one outstanding in
silent, solemn grandeur is that which
Mills designed and which the Nation

conception of the greatness of a man
end of a great Nation’s love for that
mau. i am irui> giau uiuii

In devoting their lives to the prin
ciple for which they fought.”
Declaring that some of the greatest
dangers come "from within our own
borders,” Roper said:
“These dangers require the most
careful and patriotic consideration
and study by all of our citizens. Dur
ing the past three years we have been
fighting the forces of economic de
pression and social disintegration.
We are conquering these forces with
the same American spirit of patrio
tism with which these men we honor
today fought their battles.”
“Evidently we have not given suffi
cient thought to the causes behind
the desire of nations for power and
expansion. There has been a definite
trend toward nationalism and self
containment in all parts of the world.
• * * Properly established and wisely
guided international trade should lead
to peaceful relations among nations.
"If modem civilization is not to be
endangered by another destructive
catastrophe, there must be an unre
mitting attempt to inculcate among
peoples and among nations a t -ader
understanding of these economic rela
tionships, which, if not properly
guided, may become causes of inter
national conflict.”
Yaden Presides.
The Arlington services opened with
the call to order by John M. Kline,
89-year-old commander of the De
partment of the Potomac, Grand-Army
of the Republic, which sponsored the

The day recalled the shortening
roster of veterans of 1861-65. The
2.128.948 men of the Union Army
dwindled to approximately 10,000, ac
cording to latest returns. Of a max
imum Confederate Army of some 900,
000, there are approximately 9.000 left,
according to an estimate by Gen.
Harry Rene Lee of Nashville, Tenn.

of the Brightwood section, spoke of
the interest in the annual celebration,
which was conducted by the Bright

Gallant Hero Rests ’Neath Simple Stone
in Impressive Solitude.
with flowers, hunters were following
their dogs along the edge of the woods
nearby. Black stacks in the field were
j the harvest of beans and in the dis
| tance a gleaner was picking up a
few' stray pods for her evening meal.
And so the fallen Eagle of the Air
rests among the simple peasants,
where the inspiration of Joan of Arc
wras born.
Impressive Solitude.
There, where he so gallantly took
off to the mystic and glorious realms
of Valhalla, he may spread his spirit
wings and fly again the thrilling,
thunderous course of his last patrol.
Or in perfect freedom, he may follow,
from the tranquil, sequestered vale of
Chamery, the beckoning beam of a
tiny star in the ceilingless vault above
him, outsoaring "The Shadow of our
Night.”
'Mid solitude so impressive, with
traditions so heroic, what legends and
sagas may not spring up to im
mortalize the winged knight of the
i air, who heard the call of Roland’s
horn and. answering, matched his life
with Bayard's fame: "Sans Peur Et
Sans Reproche!”
Perhaps in the centuries to come,
if the war clouds again gather o'er
the Marne and Meuse, the peasant,
toiling in his field at dusk, may hear
the whir of a phantom propeller, cross
himself, and murmur, "It is he, the
American Aiglon, whose hangar is
marked by the lone white cross at
Chamery. He fights again for
France!”
We left our flowers with a prayer,
a tear, a last salute, and turned back
toward the red roofs of Chamery,
w’here we mused a while by the

PLANTER WHO SHOT
JUDGE GIVES UP
Bruce Taken to Unan
nounced Jail in Mississippi
for Safety.
By the Associated Press.
RALEIGH. Miss., May 30.—The
Smith County sheriff's office an
nounced tonight that Frank Bruce,
60-year-old planter sought in con
nection with the shooting of Circuit
Judge Edgar M. Lane, had surrendered
■ and was en route to an unannounced
I jail for "safekeeping.”
Deputy Sheriff Bob Parker, a mem
ber of the posse which has been trail
ing Bruce since Judge Lane was
wounded last night, said Bruce was
in the custody of Sheriff J. M. Martin.
Judge Lane. 54, militant South
Mississippi jurist, received a charge
of buckshot in his left leg and groin
as he left the court house. He ac
cused Bruce, saying the man had
made threats against his life.
Earlier tonight before Bruce was
taken into custody, District Attorney
Homer Currie said feeling against him
was •’'pretty' high” and added that "it
would not be safe to put him in jail
here.”
Two Sons Slain.
The judge said the man was em
bittered by the slaying of his two
sons—Bondy and Otho Bruce—within
the last year. Otho was killed by
Judge Lane's brother, C. W. Lane, in
self-defense. Bondy Bruce was killed
in an election day fight and the elder
Bruce was wounded.
Though Homer Keys was arrested—
and later exonerated—in connection
with the election day slaying, Judge
Lane said Frank Bruce accused him
of being responsible.
Currie said he was standing about
200 yards from Judge Lane when the
judge was shot.

Nominates Republican Head
of Tariff Group, Who
Backs His Policies.
Robert Lincoln O'Brien, Republican
chairman of the Tariff Commission,
who has approved the New Deal re
ciprocal tariff program, was nomi
nated for reappointment yesterday by
President Roosevelt.
Washington immediately watched
for any signs of possible opposition
among Republic

recently opposed
with vigor a

O'B r i e n that

New England. At Mr. Roosevelt’s re
quest, however, he withdrew his oppo

Appointed by Hoover.
O’Brien, appointed originally by
President Hoover and since reap
pointed by Mr. Roosevelt, proposed a
few months ago that the Republican
party approve the system of bargain
ing with other nations for mutual
advantages through the reduction of
tariffs.
“Experience has shown,” he said,
“that to frame an old-fashioned tariff
bill, and let the rest of the world take
it or leave it, is no longer an adequate
answer. Such tariff-making wrecked
the administrations of two recent Re
publican Presidents. Hoover and Taft,
besides subjecting the business of the
country to interminable delays and un
certainties. all of which reacted on the
party in power.”
Proposed G. O. P. Plank.
He proposed a Republican platform
plank saying that “if we are to have
tariff trading, or tariff bartering, it
must be a responsibility lodged in the
executive department, or in the head
ship of the Nation, and not subjected
to the town-meeting methods of huge
legislative bodies.”
