CLEVELAND. O, Jan. 14 —The
turbulent course of Cleveland's city
manager system Of government has
reached Its bitterest climax today
with the removal of City Manager
William R Hopkins.
The city council by a vote of 14
to 11 last night ousted Hopkins
from the position he had held since
the manager plan was adopted six
years ago.
Immediate outcome of the coun-
cil's action is the suspension of Hop-
kins effective at once with his fin-
al removal order Jan. 22. Before that
date he will be given a public hear-
ing. On Jan 27, former State Sen-
ator Daniel E. Morgan Is scheduled
to become the new city manager.

structions of party leaders In pat-

dential nominee in 1028.----
The Issue will be decided soon by
the 31 members of the committee
when they are called by Chairman
D. W. Wilcox of Georgetown to pass
upon the application of Senator
Thomas B. Love of Dallas for a
place on the primary ballot. Love
admitted in his application he had
opposed the Democratic nominee.
"I favor Inviting all qualified vot-
ers without regard to previous par-
ty alignment who will in good faith
subscribe to the party pledge to
support its nominees to vote and
become candidates in its primary,"
Gammon wired. “Local election

Avoid the snags along the
common-sense path to fitness and

deprive you of the tantalizing con-
tour of the modern figure. Be
moderate—be moderate in all
things, even in smoking. Eat
healthfully but not immoderately
—when your eyes are bigger than
your stomach, reach for a Lucky
instead. Coming events cast their
shadows before. Avoid that future
shadow by avoiding over-indul-
gence, if you would maintain the
graceful, modern figure withjts
captivating curves.

KANSAS CITY. Jan. 14—A blow
to the hope of Dr. Frederick A.
Cook, arctic explorer, for a parole
from the federal penitentiary at
Leavenworth has been struck by the
Better Business Bureau of Kansas
City in an announcement that It
will oppose clemency for him.
George M. Husser, manager of
the bureau, said the Kansas City
Better Business Bureau cooperated
with other bureaus in 1923 in ob-
taining evidence to convict Dr. Cook
of fraud in an oil promotion scheme
in Fort Worth, Texas, and that he
believed the five years the explorer
has served is not sufficient atone-
ment for his offense. Dr. Cook was
sentenced to 14 years, 9 months.
"It does not seem to us,” said
Husser, “that five years la suffic-
ient atonement for defrauding the
‘public out of 8100,000,000.**

gested today before a Senate sub-
committee Investigating cotton «•
changes that Henry Ford and Ju-
lius Roeenwald of Bears, Roebuck A
Company be called to tell how the
condition of the cotton farmer of
the south could be improved, j'
The proposal was a pn"
to an attack on methods
the concerns of which Ford and
Rosenwald are heads. Marsh said
Ford was an outstanding exponent
of hlih wages for labor, but his
buyers were “remorseless” in us-
ing every "possible expediency” to
drive down the price of cotton fab-
rics. used by Ford's plants tai 'Bunge
quantities. ' ’ >5- J*
The witness also told the sub-
committee that buyers of 8ear»-Roe-
buck & Company, Montgomery
Ward & Company, and Woolworth.
_ _______who use one-fifth of the cotton
20 last and there having been in- goods manufactured, were the “moot
remorseless drivers down” of cotton
prices.
He added that in an effort to
meet competition of the chain stores
independent dry goods stores had
organized buying syndicates with
great purchasing power.
“All are combined," he said, "to
throw the risk of price back on that
poor devil (the cotton farmer) who
cannot help himself ”

forcement procedure” and that it
was clear also that the commission
“believes the law as It now stands
is unenforceable.” *-
At the headquarters of the Anti-
Saloon League It was said the board
of directors In session at Detroit
had taken the report under consid-
eration.Although no announcement
was available, it was predicted fav-
orable reaction would be forthcom-
ing later.
Deets Pickett, research secretary
of the Methodist Board of Temper-
ance, Prohibition and Public Mor-
als. asserted “We favor the rec-
ommendations of President Hoover
as they come to -us" and added he
regarded the report as a “start”
that might serve as an Introduction
for further statements.
Today, there appeared little dis-
position among “wets” as a whole
to opoose the recommendations.
Whether this attitude would con-
] tinue after a more careful study of
the proposed changes was a question
that time alone could answer, al-
though a number of this group pri-
vately expressed opinion there would
be no concentrated opposition. For
several years many “wet” members
have advocated expending much
larger sums of.money tor protolbl-
Uon than have been provided, con-
tending this would be one means of
showing that the statute was unen-
forceable.

There will be three recommen-

major report will oppose a new cen-

til it is completed.

The Governor, referring to the
prison system, said “humanitari-
an consideration. State pride and
the economic welfare of the State
call for a prompt solution of this
public problem."
Deplorra Present Facilities
He said the physical properties
now constituting the prison sys-
tem are of such nature as to make
impossible the efficient operation of
a modem penal Institution, and
“are responsible for the failure of
the prison system to accomplish
I the major and more important pur-
poses of such an institution." He
said the present system had “con-
stituted a continuous and experj-
I slve drain upon the resources of the
State” . '
Referring to the fee committee’s
report, the Governor said it at-
tempted to show that some tidunty
officers are receiving as much as
822,000 per year net; that with ap-
parent legal sanction some county
officers are placing trust funds in
banks and drawing and retaining
interest on the dally balances; that
with apparent legal authority cer-
tain officers are bein' allowed ad-
ditional compensation over and
above that fixed by Jaw; that fees
