THE EVENING SUN, BALTIMORE, FRIDAY, 'APRIL 17, 1931 SOUTH WILL GAIN MOST IF HOUSE CONTROL SHIFTS Hyde Finds Dixie Senators Would Get Many Places Also COMMITTEE POSTS HELD BY MEMBERS Lucas Had Pictured Democratic Victory As Bad For Section From Page and Means, Appropriation, Rules, Naval and Military Affairs, Rivers and Harbors, Judiciary, Veterans' Legislation and nearly twenty others. The chief objection is likely to come from Northern Democrats, rather than from Southerners of either party. The organization of the Senate, where the vote at present stands, 48 Republicans, 47 Democrats and 1 one Farmer-Labor, will also, if the seniority rules hold, put the control into the bands of Southern Democrats. The list stands as follows: COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN Forestry Smith. 8.

Civil McKellar, Tenn. Trammell. Fla. Claims Commerce Fletcher, Fla. Executive Expenditures Swanson.

Military Affairs. Fla. Naval Swanson. Va. Postoffice and Post Roads.

Kellar. Tenn. Printing Fletcher, Fla. In the Senatorial list there are also a number of duplications, cases in which the same man is the ranking Democratic member on two or more committees. But it is clear that in the Senate, as in the House, the South will be in a position of tremendous power.

KIDNAPPERS' VICTIM RETURNS HOME SAFE Wisconsin Brewer Was Handcuffed And Blindfolded While Held Captive From Page for five of the nights he was away, he said. Blumer Unharmed Blumer was unharmed, but suffered from nervous exhaustion. His captors had fled. Archie E. Wells, secretary-treasurer of the Blumer company, in announcing the missing man had been found, said no money had been paid for his release.

The only expense involved, Wells said, was that incurred in the trip to and from Decatur. Blumer himself sent out the first word that he was alive and unhurt. At 9.20 o'clock last night he telephoned Wells from the hotel. Fearing a hoax, Wells had Lutzinger listen in on the conversation. Blumer convineed them of his identity and his friends hurried to Decatur by automobile.

Believed Bound For Canada they were headed for Canada. Hunt Apparently Dropped Blumer was released, Wells said, when his abductors became frightened at the close pursuit of police. Rockford (Ill.) authorities and Chicago police, led by Detective-Lieutenant William Cusack, conducted the search in and near Rockford and in the vicinity of Streator, Ill. The abductors kept moving farther south, Wells said, and finally last night, when they found themselves but a few hours ahead of the searchers, they released Blumer and fled. Wells expressed the belief Wells said he had been in communication with the kidnappers.

Meanwhile the authorities apparently had abandoned the search at the Blumer family's request. It was feared his life might be endangered. Blumer disappeared a week ago last night. He started for a hotel to discuss with a Rockford man a plan to introduce the Blumer near beer into Rockford territory. A few hours later Wells recieved telephone call from Freeport, Ill.

He was told Blumer was held for 000 ransom. He was advised that the kidnappers would send another message within forty-eight hours. City and county authorities were notified. and northern Illinois peace offcers joined in the search. Later messages from the kidnappers were not made public.

It remained for Collins, a manager for Louis Armstrong, to point out this possibility when he complained that Louis, a Negro who toots a tuneful cornet in a night club, was threatened and followed around gangsters.

Louis, his manager said, quit one night club job for another, luring the customers place to another. Collins told police, "the better "But the more, scare he plays the cornet.

Kurten Now Admits Murdering Twelve Death List Grows As Wholesale Killer's Trial Proceeds In Germany Dusseldorf, Germany, April 17 (Special Cable) -A new sensation was caused today in the trial of Peter Kurten when the defense attorney anpounced that Kurten had confessed still another murder and an attempted murder. This brings the wholesale killer's total up to twelve completed and eight attempted murders.

The case announced today occurred when Kurten was only 12 years old, at which time he already had drowned two comrades in the Rhine. Today's session also brought the testimony of Gertrude Schultz, 28, the survivor of one of the most vicious of Kurten's attacks. She was stabbed no less than twenty-five times and her recovery was regarded as miraculous. She was visibly unnerved facing Kurten in the courtroom, but be was as cool as ice. Psychologists and criminologists, whom Kurten has defied to fathom his murder and vampire complexes, are expected to begin testifying Monday.

The experts will read in Kurten's eyes and face the glib confession of his slaughter mania.

Temperlatures have shown little change since 1 RIOTERS RELEASE ALL PRISONERS IN BARCELONA Police Making Little Attempt To Enforce Martial Law MADRID SENDS UNITY MISSION TO CATALONIA Aims To Block Secession By Peaceful Means Or Arms From Page pects of settlement of the dispute were brighter. The Government has decided to abolish the permanent wing of the Senate, or upper house of the Cortes, This consisted of members elected for life by the King or enjoying Senatorial rank by virtue of their station in life. Included were cardinals, grandees of Spain, captains general of the army and navy and the president of the Supreme Court.

Resignations have been received from ractically all the diplomatic corps who njoyed office under the monarchy. mong them Ambassador Padilla Bell, Washington. All were voluntary, exept that of Ambassador Quinones de con at Paris, who was declared to be longer in office. Ramon Franco Heads Air Service Major Ramon Franco, Spanish avintion and revolutionary hero, who returned yesterday from asylum in France, today was put in charge of the military aeronautical service here. He replaces Col.

Garcia Antunez. His first net was to call together the personnel of his force and to exhort them to continue with their work, exerting themselves to the utmost in the interests of Spanish aviation. A woman, the lawyer Senorita Vietoria Kent, was placed at the head of republican Spain's prison system day. Her appointment was announced by the Minister of Justice, Fernando de Los Rios. Senorita Kent came to public notice recently during her defense of Minister of Promotion Al- bornoz before a court-martial.

Jobholders Safe The Government has announced that there will be no wholesale dismissal of employes who served under the monarchy, decreeing that those whose records are good and who are not opposed to the new regime shall continue in their jobs. While ambasasdors in the foremost capitals resigned because they were of the nobility or strong partisans of the King, there will be no general dismissal of diplomatic officials and staffs abroad, it was said. All those who have given good service and who will support the new Government will retain their posts. Catholics Favor Separation Barcelona, April 17 -Forty high Roman Catholic personalities, among them several writers of note, have sent a message to Col. Francisco Macia, president of the Barcelona Government, assuring him of their support of a Catalonian republic.

The Roman Catholic associations of Barcelona are preparing a favoring a state which will be separate from the Government at Madrid. Some other professional and commercial bodies probably will take similar action. The bishop of the Bareclona diocese has sent 8. circular letter to all his clergy advising them not to interfere in political matters or to take sides in political discussions. They are instructed, however, to collaborate with the civil authorities of their districts.

The Regionalist party here today decided to cooperate with Colonel Macia in formation of a Catalonian republic although not accepting any governmental responsibilities at pres- ent. Radicals Arrested in Seville Seville, Spain, April 17 (P)-Communists clashed with Civil Guards today. There were many arrests, but no casulties. Authorities denied rumors there had been a battle with the radicals. France Recognizes New Regime Paris, April 17 (P)-The French Government officially recognized new Spanish Republic today, being the Erst major power to do so, Deposed King Defers His Plans Beyond A Quiet Life In France Paris, April 17 (P) Duke of Miranda, spokesman for King Alfonso, told a group of seventy-five French and foreign newspapermen today that the wish of King Alfonso and Queen Victoria now is to efface themselves from public life and to live quietly as prirate citizens in France pending the result of an expression of the Spanish people.

In his interview, which lasted thirtyfive minutes and during which he announced that Queen Marie of Rumania would arrive in Paris later today to visit the King and Queen, the Duke said King Alfonso had not yet had time to reflect sufficiently to form any definite plans for the future. Family To Remain Together No decision regarding the King's movements will be made for two or three days at least, he said, but he added that the entire family would probably remain together. He told the newspaper men he Green, Labor Head, Kent Address Editors' Society Former Stresses Problems Of Press And Unions. Latter Tells Of Politicians And Their Need For Publicity the Washington, April 17 Organized labor and politicians and the relations of each to the press claimed the attention today of the American Society of Newspaper Editors. President William Green, of the American Federation of Labor, told the editors that labor, in seeking relief from injunctions, was fighting a campaign closely linked to freedom of the press.

He said injunctions prohibiting organizations from distributing hand bills and pamphlets regarding labor disputes closely approached infringement upon freedom of the press. Frank Kent Speaks Frank R. Kent, of the Baltimore SUN, said politicians must depend entirely on publicity to be successful and wanted above all other things favorable "The of politicians upon publicity is really complete," Kent said. "It's no use a man being a good President, or Senator, or Congressman unlesa he can get the fact in the newspapers. All Want Publicity "What every public man here, from the President in the White House down to the most obscure member of the House of Representatives, wants, is publicity.

There is not much use being here if he doesn't get it. Publicity is the life blood of politics. Without it the game just can't be played. "Now it isn't just publicity the politician wants--its favorable publicity. The old adage that is better to be roasted than is amusing, but not true.

There isn't a public man anywhere who in his heart subscribes to it. There isn't one anywhere who doesn't wince from newspaper criticism. And the higher they climb the more they wince. "The truth is, most of the politicians in this place are badly spoiled by favorable publicity," he continued. "Nearly all of them are astute and assiduous seekers after it.

They give out interviews and statements, make speeches, hold press conferences and make more or less a business of propaganda. They're Taken Seriously "What they want is to be taken by the newspaper men as seriously as they take themselves--and in the main, they are. "What they don't want is to have a newspaper man go behind the front and tell what sort of a man he really is without his false whiskers, what sort of a game he is really playing and why. This they resent. But what they resent more than anything else is humor.

Make a little fun of one of them and he goes all to pieces. Kid wished to express the King's gratitude for the way he was received in Paris. "Neither the King nor the Queen will ever find words to express this gratitude," he said. The King does not wish to make any declaration at the present time, he explained, because he is very anxious to cause no trouble to the French Government. The King and Queen later received the Dowager Queen Marie of Rumania in their suite.

Elizabeth, Queen of the Belgians, who came here yesterday from Brussels to be at the side of Queen Victoria in her hour of need, bad a briet chat with Alfonso and Victoria, this morning and then departed Brussels. Assured Of Protection French officialdom will continue to accord the Spanish royal family full police protection as long as they wish to remain in Paris or elsewhere in France, a spokesman for the Foreign Office said today. There had been rumors that the Government was uneasy because of the presence of the dethroned King in the heart of the capital and that A gentle hint might be conveyed that the Queen, the Princes and Princesses would be safer in England. Premier Laval, as Minister of the Interior, had the guard about the Spanish Embassy redoubled today to ward off any possible political manifestation. At the Spanish Embassy an official told the Havas Agency that no demand for recognition of the new republic by France had yet come through to be transmitted to the French Foreign Office.

It is probable, it was said, that the request would come through the French Ambassador at Madrid. Infante Sails For Naples Gibraltar, April 17 -The infante Juan, son of King Alfonso, sailed today for Naples. He arrived bere with his tutor Wednesday from Cadiz when the royal family was preparing to leave Spain. Moscow Says Spanish Republic Will Fail Moscow, April 17 (P) -Russian Communists generally disclaim any connection with the Spanish revolution and, according to the Lavestia, Russia sees little hope for any stable form of Democratic Government in Spain. "The Imperialists are afraid," the newspapers declared today, "lest the Bourgeois Democratic revolution develop into a Socialistic one.

"Should a further revolutionary movement develop, the new Government would undoubtedly look to the monarchy for assistance, trying its best to shorten its own life as happened in the case of the republic of 1873." I STIMSON WARNS AMERICANS TO QUIT NICARAGUA U. S. Cannot Undertake General Protection, Secretary Says THOSE WHO STAY, DO SO AT OWN RISK American Forces Not To Be Sent Inland To Aid Citizens There From Page Admiral Arthur St. Clair Smith, commander of the special-service squadron in Central American waters, aboard, was ready at the Canal Zone to proceed north to relieve the Sacramento at Bluefields if necessary. Summarizes Situation Secretary Stimson summarized the situation in eastern Nicaragua as the result of what appeared to be the morement of insurgents across the country from west to east by four river routes, the Coco, the Wawa, Rio Grande and the Siquia or Escondido, bringing them into the areas behind Cape Gracias a Dios, Puerto Cabezas and Bluefields.

No trustworthy estimate of their numbers was available, he said, but an idea of their strength and methods of operation could be obtained from the report of marine aviators who flew over Cape Gracias a Dios while the band which had raided that port were retreating. That band contained only fifteen men. The operated much as the Indians did in American Colonial times, Stimson said. They more in small bands by canoes along the rivers, attack outlying settlements, logging camps or mines, rob and kill or carry off captives, to be killed in cold blood afterward, he added. Seven of their American victims in the region above Puerto Cabezas were killed in this way.

Attack Report In Error American Consul Rowe at Bluefields reported to the State Department that previous reports of an insurgent attack on Rama, sixty-five aniles northwest of Bluefields, were erroneous. He said, however, small bandit groups been reported in the Rama area. The reported attack on Rama was the principal reason for ordering the Sacramento to Bluefields. Rowe reported one error in the list of eight American civilians reported killed April 11 and 12 northwest of Puerto Cabezas. He said Herbert H.

Wilson was one of the victims and not Hubert O. Wilson, of Wichita, as previously reported. The State Department had no record of any Herbert H. Wilson having gone to Central America. Rowe said all other Americans at Puerto Cabezas were accounted for and none had been injured.

As these defense efforts proceeded. Representative Fish N. attacked the Administration's attitude toward Nicaragua as 0. "hit-and-run" policy. "It is interesting to compare the results of this policy, where nine American lives have been lost, to that of Theodore Roosevelt in far-off Morocco of 'Pedicaris alive or Raisuli Fish said.

Nicaraguan Guardia In A Counter- Attack On Sandino Forces Managua, April 17 (U.P) A determined counter-offensive against insurrectionist forces in northeastern Nicaragua was begun today by National Guardsmen, led by United States marine officers and aviators. The armed forces of Augustino Sandino, insurgent leader, were roaming over a wide area of the rough countryside surrounding Puerto Cabezas and threat against the port of Bluefields was reported. Coincident with reports that eight more Americans were killed or missing after an attack on Gracias a Dios Lieut. Clyde Darrah and Lieutenant Curcey led twenty National Guardsmen from Puerto Cabezas to meet a band of sixty outlaws said to be armed with pistols and machetes and to be laying waste the countryside. Airplanes were ordered to supplement the guardsmen.

Fagots, Cazzeta Missing The insurrectionists were said to have left Gracias a Dios after looting the town. Albert Fagot and his family and Joseph Cazzeta, lumber worker, all of Louisiana, were reported missing -eight in all. There already were eleven Americans killed or missing. More than a score of Nicaraguans have been killed. Gracios a Dios was not burned, according to messages received here, but the entire eastern coast of Nicaragua appeared greatly disturbed by the insurrectionist raids.

Reports here said there were threats of a determined attack on Bluefields. Pedron Altamirano, one of Sandino's chief lieutenants, arrived at San Pedro del Norte with 300 armed men. He was said to be en route to Bluefields, The vicinity of Puerto Cabezas was reported quiet. The American gunboat Sacramento was due off the Atlantic Coast this morning. The U.

S. S. Rochester was due at Balboa tonight. But there was no definite announcement as to whether lit would continue to Nicaragua, FORD SEES CUT IN WAGES IF DRY LAW IS LIFTED Says Industry Can't Pay High Rate For Intemperate Labor LAUDS PROHIBITION AS BUSINESS AID Declares Employers Should Take Active Part In Enforcement New York, April 17 (U.P) Henry Ford feels that the return of legalized beer and whisky would be followed by widespread reduction of wages in the United States. His answers to three questions propounded by the alcohol information committee and made public today also revealed that he is of the opinion employers should enforce the prohibition law, aided by Government supervision of liquor traffic.

Ford's Views Outlined His answers, in part, were: "I believe business has more to dol with prohibition enforcement today than any other agency. Those employers who were anxious to improve the condition of their men by increasing their wages soon discovered that no business can afford to pay high wages to intemperate or drinking workmen. If the impossible should occur--I mean the return of legalized liquor--its first effect would be widespread reduction of wages due to the demoralization of labor which liquor always causes. Cites Legal Weapon "Business has been vastly helped by the prohibition low in securing sobriety. The law gives us a weapon.

We are no longer left to ourselves to get decent conditions for families, but have the support of the Government. "The liquor business made money for very few--took money and money-making ability from very many. General business since prohibition has resulted in the kind of business that benefits all who engage in it." Gifts To Catholic Missions Decrease U.S. Residents Contribute 000 To Propagation Of Faith Organization In Year Vatican City, April 17 (AP)-The United States contributed $1,251,000 in the last fiscal year to the propagation of the faith organization which directs Catholic missions throughout the world, it was announced today.

Fire him a little and he goes crazy. I have actually them about that. "The thing that always irritates me about newspaper men is the unconscious habit so many have formed of looking up to these politicians who get into high or low office instead of looking down them as they have every right to do." Green warned the editors against identifying as movements of organized labor "destructive and impossible" plans of "designing people." He reviewed antagonism organized labor had met in its efforts to improve working conditions and said that as its aims became better known it received commendation of the press. Values Public Opinion Labor, be said, placed a great value upon public opinion and the power of the press to mold public opinion. "The press has been frequently deceived because in their news columns and editorials they refer to these misguided groups as labor organizations and their representatives 88 labor spokesmen.

They neither represent labor nor do they speak for labor. Confuse Groups "Those uninformed and unacquainted, however, with the development of the organized labor movement in the United States become confused and are unable to discriminate between these groups and their representatives who masquerade as friends and advocates of organized labor. There is an eternal conflict orzanized constantly going on between labor and destructive, unethical and impracticable groups, many of which receive inspiration and financial support from abroad." No Compromise Green said there could be no compromise between organized labor and the unethical groups.
