congressional race—
Aocordmg to a telegram received
by The Herald—
From D. L. Neeley,
County chairman.

All 23 of them in the 15th dis
trict.
Will be holdtng primaries.
HE WAS JUST A KID WHEN
we knew him. this Mercedes boy
who dropped dead on the basket
ball court last night.
But T. K Ewing was real Ewing,
a real member of that family which
pioneered that section north of
Mercedes.
The legion of friends of the
Ewings are sad today to hear of
the tragedy which has taken one of
those sturdy sons away from us.

WITH ALL HOPE OF A SPRING
truck crop shattered by the recent
freeze, the farmers ol the Corpus
Chrrsti section are going to go in
lor pinto beans in a big way, ac
cording to the Corpus Chnsii Call

The Caller estimated that 90 per
cent of the cabbage is gone up there,
that spinach is damaged beyond all
hope of repair, and that carrots and
beets are among the also rans.

VALLEY MEN WHO WILL
handle the details of the spring crop
and seed loans for this section—
Are in Dallas today.
Getting ready for the rush.
Loans will probably be m the

On or about February 24th.

GENEVA Switzerland. Feb. 17. <JPt
—The League of Nations assembly
report denouncing Japan's Man
! churian policy was transmitted to
all governments of the world this
afternoon.
It declares against the mam
! tenance and recognition of the
state of Manchukuo and it invites
the UnitPd States and Soviet Rus
sia to join the league powers tn
effecting a just settlement of the
. dispute bet ween China and Japan.
In asserting that Manchuria must
: be retained under Chinese sover
eignty. and in opposing recognition
of the state of Manchukuo. the re
port takes a position alongside that
of the United States as enunciated
in the Stimson doctrine that the
powers do not recognize territorial
acquisition made by use of force.
The Manchurian question must
be settled according to the princi
ples of the league covenant, the
Kellogg-Bnand pact and the ntne
power treaty, the report assert*.
It calls for withdrawal of Japa
nese troops from Manchuria, but
it does not set a definite time lim
lt for that retirement.
Negotiations between China and
Japan, with a league committee
assisting as a third party, with a
view to settling the dispute are
lecommended.

Present Set-Up Is Baker
Machine On Larger
Scale, Charges
Speaking to a half-filled court
room. Gordon Griffin. Hidalgo
county G. G. L. fire-eater who is
seeking the post vacated by John
Garner, centered his attack on
what he termed * Sen. Archie Parr
and his proxy candidate” here
Thursday night.
'Sen. Parr has misrepresented
and disgraced this section In the
state legislature for 30 years, but
with your help,” Griffin declared,
“he is not going to misrepresent
and disgrace this country m the
United States congress.” The
strong assertion was greeted with
a smattering of cheers.
‘Baker Knlargrment'
The Sen. Parr machine is an
enlargement of the old Baker
machine which operated In Hidal
go county." the McAllen candidate
asserted. He then went into de
tail as to the 10-year battle of the
G. G L. in overthrowing the Baker
regime. He then produced photo
static copies of audits, checks and
other evidence which he claimed
proved that Sen. Parr obtained
seme $200,000 from various deals
with Baker in Hidalgo county.
'I defy Sen. Parr or his proxy
candidate to deny this." the speak
er shouted.
He also presented evidence which
he asserted showed that the son
of Sen. Parr, then county judge
of Duval county, obtained $25,000
from W. L. Pearson, contractor
who did most of the work in Hi
dalgo county under the Baker
regime.
Griffin endeavored to convince
the audience that Sen. Parr w-as
deeply involved in the Hidalgo
scandals, and then went ahead to
name Milton West of Brownsville
as Parr s "proxy candidate" in the
congressional race.
"West may be the best man on
earth personally." Griffin asserted,
"but when Sen. Parr says ‘frog’ you
can bet that West will jump."

A Story of Two Immigrants Who Became U. S.
Citizens~and Met Wednesday Night at Miami
BY DALE HARRISON
NEW YORK. Feb. 17. t/P,—He
was the kind of fellow who curs d
government and then ran to the
governmental's postal saving.*
bank with his money for safe
keeping.
That was the philosophy—if it
be philosophy—of Giuseppe Zan
gara who from a cheap pistol fir
ed at Miami Wednesday night
five shots that threatened to write
red pages of American history.
He came to America, an immi
grant. in 1923 from Italy. Many
years before another immigrant
had come from Bohemia. Thar
was Anton Cermak. He elected to
write his life's destiny in the gold
en sands of the new world which
another Bohemian, also with the
given name Anton, had apostroph
ized in a great symphony.
The one. hating government and
hating rules, ranted from soaD
boxes in broken English or, il his
audience could understand, in his
native Italian. The other became
mayor of Chicago.
Their paths met Wednesday
night at Miami. In the hands of
one was an eight dollar pistol. In
his heart, by his own words, was
the assassination of the presi
dent-elect of the Jmted State?.
Back in Calabria. Italy, the
father of Giuseppe Zangara has
been wondering for several weeks
what has become of his son in
America. The money which
Giuseppe had been sending home
was much appreciated by tne
father, the stepmother and the
step-sisters there.
Only a day or two ago a letter
came from the elder Zangara to
Vincent Cataso of Paterson. N.
J, an uncle of Giuseppe, ask ng
where the son was.
• The money has stopped,1 wrote
the father. -Where is Giuseppe1
He was always so prompt with
the money.”
Cafaso didn’t know. But he
knows now. Giuseppe tried to
shoot down the president-to-be
In Calabria, probably under the
guidance of his father, the young
Giuseppe became a stonemaso-i
and hncklayer. When he reached
America through the port oi
Philadelphia 10 years ago he soon
found that he could make good
money here at his trade.
He took out papers of naturali
zation. He put his savings iri the
postal savings bank; and he be
gan to talk from soapboxes.
To those who like to toy with
thoughts, it may be set down 'hat
in the Alexander Hamilton hotel
in Paterson. N. J.—a hotel namtd
for a great American who dit-u
from pistol bullet’s wound—are
bricks laid by Giuseppe Zangara.
Zangara always indicated def
inite political ideas, yet tederal
agents seeking to trace his car
eer in America have failed to
find any connection between him
and any anarchic or anti-govern
ment group. He was a lone wolf
of the soapbox. He registered once
as a republican, ana that is the
only evidence so far uncovered to
Indicate a political leaning
Yet when they seized him at
Miami, he said his first intention
was to kill the republican Pres.
Hoover; and that “personally" he
liked Mr. Roosevelt “very much."
His pastime was checkers. His
uncle Vincent Cafaso recalled
that, today. It was a major in
terest.
Zangara laid his bricks well.
His account in the postal savings
b^nk was said to be more than
WOO, and there were balances in
excess o' $2,000 in New Jersey
banks.
In mid-August of 1931 Zangara
withdrew his money from the
