27. Mrs. soup Helen Louise Doke has been paying secret visits to the jail cell where her husband, Judson C. Doke, former San Leandro city official, is confined on charges of murdering SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 29.

The Hetch Hetchy project, supplying water to San Francisco today after 25 years of effort and expenditure of more than $100,000,000 has its greatest value in its augury for the future. So declared Harold L. Ickes, Secretary of the Interior and Federal Public Works Administrator, in an address inaugurating the huge water and power project yesterday afternoon. her young student-poet lover. This revelation, coming on the flashily dressed came into the Monterey Chamber of Commerce the other day and asked to see Vincent Adams, the secretary.

"What can I do for you?" Adams asked. "I understand that you in Monterey have the flagpole where the first American flag in California was raised." the stranger said. "That's right." Adams replied. said th- stranger, "I have a grand publicity scheme that will attract nation-wide attention to Monterey. I'm a flag-pole sitter nrofessinn and nronose to sit on eve of the opening of Doke's murder trial tomorrow, was taken by observers of the case to indicate WASHINGTON By GEORGE DURNO POINTS Now that the American Legion has again gone on record for immediate payment of a cash bonus you will begin hearing plenty from an organization known as the American Veterans' Association.

All members of the V. A. are supposed to be active vwffionnaires who think it quite out of order to be asking for cash bonus, "wpansion of the present pension system or other special treatment in times like these. Its leaders vehemently deny the charge of pro-bonus Legionnaires that.it is a concealed outgrowth of the old National Economy League, which spent money freely several years back combatting what were termed raids on the Federal Treasury. Retiring National Crsnmander Ed Hayes attacked the American Veterans' Association as a "fly-by-night" organization, but there are evidences it has plenty of financial backing for a vigorous anti-bonus lobby.

OOO HOBART The A. V. A. is not a brand-n organization but it docs have a brand-new commander. He is Donald A.

Ho-bart. who has just resigned as an associate member of the Board of Veterans' Appeals of the United Stales Veterans' Administration. Hobart spent a year on the-inside of the Veterans' Administration before advising Administrator Frank T. Hines that President Roosevelt's "sound principles" concerning ex-service men had been "emasculated by hysterical Congressional action." His resignation and subsequent appointment as head of the A. V.

A. was timed nicely to coincide with the opening of last week's Legion convention at Miami. Veterans who do not share Ho-bart's views say the A. V. A.

deliberately planned him on the Board of Veterans' Appeals so he could spend a year watching the wheels so 'round and for the first serious Congressional fight on bonus or pensions. That (iic A- V. A. has money to spend in combatting the bonus was manifested during the weeks immediately preceding the Legion's national convention. Wherever important state conventions are held A.

V. A. exhorted all Legionnaires to stand by a three-point program of Federal compensation. A. V.

A. lost the first round at Miami," but those three points will that the defense plans to use the wife's testimony to save him from hanging for the slaying of Lamar Hollingshead. 23-year-old University of California student. Since Arthur Huston. defense attorney, has made repeated denials that there has been any reconciliation between Drvke and his wife, it was believed possible, in the face of this new develorjment, that a top of this historic pole for three days and three nights." Adams sent him out to see the flagpole, but the stranger never returned.

All that remains of the historic flagpole is a stump of wood is floods that destroy property worth $50,000,000 downstream. "If there is waste and destruction, the people in the end will have to foot the bills. Before this country is through with it. the taxpayers will be called upon to expend millions of dollars to make good the ravishment of our forests, the destruction of our surface soils, the pollution of our waters and 1he wasteful exploitation of our oil fields, out of all of which our 'rugged while they may have made great individual fortunes, have not taken wealth comparable to the losses that they have inflicted upon the people." PAYS TRIBUTE Ickes paid tribute to the work of the late M. M.

O'Shaughnessy, the "father" of the Hetch Hetchy project, who died less than three weeks ago. The national administration, he said, is at work through President Roosevelt's National Resources Board, on a comprehensive plan for development of all natural resources of the country. The program, he said, will be designed to be carried out over a period of from 2f to 50 years and will be national in its scope. PresidentsRoosevelt, he said, is "the most socially minded President that this country has ever had" and "a sincere conservationist." "No other President i-n one, or two full terms has done so much as he has already done to plan a de Hetch Hetchy is a great engineering and financial undertaking and brilliantly achieved," Ickes said. "It is a monument to the daring enterprise of a great, city.

It is a demonstration that dreams, if they are purposeful, do come true. But its greatest value lies in its augury for the future." CLOSER COOPERATION That future, the speaker declared, is one of closer cooperation between local, State and national governments for the conservation of natural resources, for the wasting of which he scored "rugged individualists." "I am not opposed to the development of our natural resources for the greatest good of the greatest number of our people; he said. "On the contrary, I believe that these resources were put here for us to use. "But I insist that they should be used to the best advantage of all the people, just as the City of San Francisco, in cooperation with the Federal Government, has put the life-giving waters of the Tuolumne River and the electrical energy contained in those waters to the best possible use. DEVELOPS THEORY "I do not object to any man building up a great fortune provided he can do so without injury to others.

But I do take exception to a man enriching himself at the expense of others. No man has a right to wealth based upon the exploitation of those not able to protect themselves. No man has a right to become a multi-millionaire through the waste or willful destruction of essential natural resources. No man has a right to make $5,000,000 by cutting down the forests at the headwaters of a river if the result less than four feet long! OFF-SPRING An inebriated mo- torist--with girl sped up Market Street in San Francisco. A motorcycle officer finally crowded him to the curb.

"What's the hurry, young man?" asked the officer. "I'm rushing my wife to the hospitalshe's about to become mother," answered the youth. "Well if that's the case," hesitated the officer. "But let's see," he added as alcohol fumes came his way. As the inquisitive officer's head entered the coupe the girl became indignant out went her hand in a resounding slap.

"My mistake I should have thought, of a better one," said the youth as he shoved the officer's head out of the car, "For your own protection," he added. "For yours, too," added the ficer as he took the driver offro jail. Next morning it was all ten no charge and no infant. 6 6 defense plan for a "love and forgiveness" scene before the jury may be in course of preparation. Also it was thought the jail trysts must mean that Mrs.

Doke will keep the promise she made just after Doke shot HcJHnffshead down last July 26, to stand by her husband "to the end." TO ASK DEATH PENALTY "The end," if District Attorney C. C. McDonald has his way, will be the gallows. He announced for the first time today that he will seek the death penalty. Previously he had indicated he might not demand the supreme penalty, but might leave the manner of punishment lo the jury, in case a conviction is brought in.

The line to be taken by the defense, according to plans partially revealed by Huston, is the "unwritten law" Mrs. Doke having freely admitted intimate relations with Hollingshead, with more than 75 nassionate love letters exchanged between the two ready for introduction as evidence to establish the iCopvtiKht. 1IB4. for The Tribune.

29 (Hi The his long list of Oriental titles, which CONTAINERS A large and thriving Oakland industry, has been entirely ruined and may never be resumed in all the years to eome, according to Walter Gibson, superintendent of garbage disposal, who declares that this tragedy has nothing whatever to do with the depression but just up and died because of the nature of things. It seems that there used to a very profitable and lively trade in empty flasks. Empty flasks were a very desirable commodity because the bootleggers could refill them and re-label them along any lines which the bootleggers desired. The stuff arriving at the garbage wharf was examined closely and the empty flasks were withdrawn from the stuff which was to be dumped at sea. This salvage grew to large proportions and the empty flask in- I dustry was one of the most thriv- ing industries on the waterfront.

But prohibition ended and the government ruled that liquor must be sold in non-refillable bottles, and as the bootlegging industry folded up and became more or less non-existent, the empty flask industry also became but a memory of the past. When the garbage boats dump their stuff 25 miles at sea now, the startled fish can observe hundreds of empty flasks floating around when everything else has sunk. 20 YEARS AGO been broken r.ff. was being secretly continued. An'other important ilem for the exhibit list It the unfinished manu, script of "The White Hibiscus." a lengthy work in verse in which Hollingshead, according to his eor-resnonrience with Mrs.

Doke. was detailing in poetry, the progress of their illicit romance. REFUSED MANUSCRIPT Mrs. Doke has pleaded for the manuscript, that she may complete it. Her request has beeri refused by Huston, who has the script, and her plans to attend the session when it is read were blocked when Huston called her as a defense witness.

This will Keen her out of the courtroom except when she is on the witness stand. Mrs. Doke made one visit to her husband, as far as has been generally known, two rloys after the shooting, and then, after confessing her relations with Hollingshead. retired into strict seclusion at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs.

Great Brilrin and Japan fust assembled at. London a week or so ago il was advertised as a preliminary get-together to the 1935 World Naval Conference. Since Japan announced flatly that she wants no more of the 5-5-3 naval ratio, insisting that any future treaties limit navies on a basis of total tonnage, world leaders know that the big conference is on right now. If. no Anglo-American-Japanese agreement is reached at London there won't be any 1935 conference.

The Japanese made their move for naval parity in bold fashion. Usual diplomatic finesse was lacking, appauolydcliberately 0 0 0 INSPIRED On the evening of the day Ambassador Tsu-neo Matsudaira privately marie known his country's demands to Prime Minister Ramsay McDonald --and 24 hours before the same ultimatum was lodged formally with Chief Delegate Norman H. Davis -certain newspaper men were summoned to the Japanese Embassy in Washington. There these correspondents' were informed bluntly that Japan's insistence on parity was a takc-it-or-leave-it proposition- Should it not be accepted by England and America, the Japanese vould go home and start building a navy just as she saw fit. It was obvious that evening that the Japanese diyjomat was speaking a piece sent out from- Tokio.

When the Washington news men returned to their offices they discovered the same procedure had been followed at London. Dispatches had steady arrived in the identic tenor of what they had just been fold. Our officials regard Japan's threat to go home and start an unlimited building program as 99 per cent bluff. Don't be surprised to see some American experts hopping out on the next transatlantic liner to give Norman Davis and Admiral William H. Standley aid and comfort.

What was to have taken place next year very definitely has been moved up for a showdown. 0 0 0 AIR It didn't take the London- military aviation experts to Melbourne air derby to awaken our military aviation experts to the crying need for dependable increased speed in pursuit planes, but the success of that long flight did serve to their experimental work. In time of war flying craft such as successfully negotiated the hop from England to Australia would be bombers, To combat ships of such proven, speed and flying rangl, attack planes Vastly faster than thos now in commission would be necessary. Exhaustive experiments in this connection have been under way for some time. Aviation engineers the world over apparently are struggling with the same problem.

It Is easy enough to build planes with great speed, but when machine guns and other appliances of war are attached it makes a difference in wind Resist-' ance which vitally affects dependability of performance. Our experts are deriving much satisfaction from' i the fact the planes which finished second and third in the London-Melbourne derby were stock Amer- Jean models, whereas the British- built winner was a tpeciar speed and demanded that he write a letter stating his affection' for Mrs. Doke was purely physical. "I said I won''' wife it. but it wasn't true and he shot me," Hollingshead declared in a dying statement.
