M ■KF' ._<■ j— m K*’,* *1 JAMES *ASWELL I* New York, Nov. 16.—A most annoy ing spot, it seems to me. is that of a youngster saddled with the name and .basking willingly or not in {he re flected glow of a celebrated relative. It's particularly hard in hayseed ham lets like New York, where everybody knows everybody . No record remains to make it cer tain. but I imagine both Alexander •nd William Shakespeare. Jr., chafed somewhat. It’s not easy, either, on the- les*> classic sprouts from bushes which have been touched by spotlight beams. At a party the otner evening I had a long chat with Bill Vallee, Rudy's brother. He’s working hard and mak ing good on the staff of a metro politan daily and he’s beginning to tunnel out into his own personality. Bill, of course, wants to stand on his own feet, and when he writes a good yarn he wants the city editor to Identify him as Bill Vallee— not as Rudy’s brother. Although he’s proud of his brother's success. That gathering was full of names •nd namesakes. Two sons of Konrad Bercovici were there and Konrad himself. The gypsy novelist dresses in a highly enviable fashion, as if he didn't give a whoop about sartorial elegance, and that was a relief among many rather painfully well-dressed gentlemen. However, you can dress in that easy fastuph with grace when you have musachios as long as Konrad's. It gave me something of a kick to hear Bercovici's son, Rion. a writer in his owa right, say “Hey. pop, come here." Koh rad is noteworthy too for com bining ai) appearance touched with the sinister with an expansive good nature. "HUNEKER WOULD HAVE JUMPED—” * But the affair was in honor of Ben jamin De Casseres and his new book •bout Spinoa- -who is, by the way, Ben’s lineal ancestor. De Casseres chortled as he showed me a letter from H. L. Menken, invAed to the party but unable to come up from Baltimore. “If Huneker could see you at a tea jPariy.” he wrote, "he’d run and jump into th* nearest manhole." Regrets had also come in from Don Marquis, who went suddenly blind from overwork and is now in hospital •lowly recovering bis vision.

FORMER SPEAKERS REWRNTD HOUSE Doughton, Murphy and Bowie To Be Back In 1933 General Assembly D»Ut Dlapere* Berea*, te tbe Sir Wetter Metel. BY J. T BASKIUIVILX. Raleigh. Nov. 16.—Three former speakers of the House of Represen tatives will— be members of the House in the 1933 General Assembly. It is pointed out by those who have been analyzing the membership of the house. These former speakers are I Rufus A. Doughton, of Sparta. Alle ghany county, who was speaker of the 1891 session and then Lieutenant Gov ernor from 1898 to 1897; Thomas C. IJowte of West Jefferson. Ash® county, who was speaker for part of tb* ‘4915 session, and Waher Murphy of Salis bury. Rowan county, who was speak er in the session of 1915 .as well as the special session of 1913. There is already a good deal of spe culation aa to the part these three former speakers will p)ey in the de liberations of the 1933 house. All three have been men of considerable in fluence in past general assemblies and should wield a good deal *f influence in this next senpton. Because of their extensive legislative experience they will know all the ropes thoroughly and should be able to become powers during this next session, and exercise some real leadership. Some believe, however, that If these three men attempt to take charge of the house, or because of their long ex perience ia legislative matters, at . tempt to dictate or force legislation through because of their superior par ' llamentary experience, that they will be likely to run into trouble and may i antagonise the other members of the house. It is also pointed out that both Doughion and Bowie are getting well advanced in age and belong to what is considered to be the older and more reactionary wing of the Democratic party in the State. It is also conced ed that neither Doughton nor Bowie wield the political power in the State they once exercised, although they are still powers in their own sections. It will be recalled that Bowie was a candidate for the Democratic nomi nation for the United States Senate, but ran a poor third in the primary. Belief here ia that Doughton and Bowie will probably stand together on a good many things, with both in favor of a sales tax of some sort. Murphy ha* been in more recent sessions of the general assembly than either Doughton or Bowie and is hence expected to be better known to the newer members and to be in ctooer touch with the immediate pro blems confronting this general assem bly. In th* peat Murphy has always been very popular with the other mem bers of th* boua* and one of the most influential members. As a result, it .« ..idSu ■ HENDERSON, (N.C.,) DAILY DISPATCH .WEDNESDAY,.. NOVEMBER 16,1932 ' Book Parade At Library Attracts Young People Young America’s Book Parade ia attracting much attention at the H. Lesli* Perry Memorial Library. The posters around the children’s room and the parade of book characters at the back of the room are arranged to tell America’s story. The procession of story books not ed on the posters starts with absorb ing tales of Indian life followed by those of unique Colonial times. The Revolutionary period is depicted in stirring tales of the war for Amer ica’s independence. Pioneering days and the winning of the West are told of in exciting tales of danger and ad venture. Stories of the Civil War give the views of both the North and the South. For the Modern era there are stories of sports aviation, engineering, Girl Scouts and various subjects that the children enjoy. There are posters showing favorite books for girls and books boys enjoy. “In Dixie Land" the many charming stories of the South is expected that he will have a bet ' ter chance than either Doghton or Bowie to emerge as one of the really outstanding members of the 1933 house, with more influence than either of the other two former speakers. Doughton has had a more extensive legislative experience than either Bowie or Murphy and has the advan tage of having been a state official here in Raleigh for a number of years. He followed the late A. L Watts as Commissioner of Revenue and then was appointed Chairman of the State Highway Commission in 1929 by Gov ernor O. Max Gardner. He was suc ceeded as Chairman of the Highway Commission by E. B. Jeffress in 1931, after the new road law had been en acted. Bowie, who served as speaker of the 1915 session for only a few weeks, fol lowing the injury to Speaker Emmett Wooten of Klnstin in an automobile accident, has not had quite as long a legislative career as either Dough ton or Murphy. He achieved parti cular notice in the 1925 session of the general assembly when a good deal . of furore was raised about evolution and "monkey laws," in which he took the role as an arch-enemy of evolu tion. Three Men Killed In Strange Manner At Virginia Town Rocky Mount, Va., Nov. 16. (AP) —Three men were killed bare yesterday evening and early this meriting two while they were keeping watch over the body of the first victim after it had been taken to Ms heme.

Nov. 16.—(API- State fiscal officers meeting here in the annual convention of State audi tors. comptrollers and treasurers launched today a discussion of in creasing school costs. The subject was precipitated to round table consideration by addresses of the day delievered by Solomon Le vitan, Wisconsin State treasurer, and A. J. Beattie, South Carolina comp troller. Levitan discussed the part played by teachers and compulsory education. Beattie discussed -school budgets and South Carolina's experience.

In the senate, as in the bouse of representatives, all committee chair . ma ns hips go to members of the dom inant party, and the important ones are very highly prized—rightly so, for they e*nfer upon their various Incum bents a materially increased degree of influence in the shaping of legis lation. The upper congressional chamber having been Republican (at least oa paper! for a long time, these coveted posts have been held by statesmen of the G. O.

The difficulty is that If such allow ance ic made, it will have to be at the expense of a corresponding num ber of ambitious Democrats. Illustratively, Senator Norris at present is chairman of the judiciary committee, a position especially coo genial to him. Obviously it will ctMß> with exceedingly ill grace If it is taken, away from him by partisans of thg White House tenant for whose elgg tion he worked so faithfully. Nevertheless, technically he is a Ite pubhean, and, by senatorial precedent Senator Henry F. Ashurst, the com mittee’s senior Democratic member, is entitled to ♦ha place.

Due to the small seating cap acity of the assembly room it is nec essary to issue tickets to those who wish to attend. An unusually attrac tive series of story hours have been arranged. Democratic ticket can quite properly be ousted, and unquestionably will be. The committee’s senior Democrat is Senator Claude A. Swanson of Vir ginia, who cannot but desire the post mightily. However, among Republican mem bers, next after Senator Borah is Sen ator Hiram Johnson of California, whose declaration ,at exactly the right psychological moment, in favor of Governor Roosevelt, can fairly be con sidered to have been the most potent single factor in throwing the biggest of the Pacific coast states to the Dem ocrats.
