Samuel Insull of Chicago and three others who refused to answer certain Questions before the Senate Campaign Funds Committee in the Illinois-Penn-sylvania primary investigations last Summer will again be summoned to appear before that committee next Monday.

The same questions which the men declined to answer will again be propounded. and If they persist In refusing to answer they very probably will be cited to the Senate for contempt. Insull, Robert E. Crowe, State attorney of Cook County, and Daniel J. Scuyler, counsel for Insull, declined to testify as to contributions to and expenditures by the Crowe-Barrett, or regular Republican organization of Cook County, in the Senatorial primary at which Frank L.

Smith defeated the late Senator William M. McKinley. In a report to the Senate last Saturday the Campaign Funds Committee said Smith probably could not have been nominated without the support of the organization, and that its expenditures, therefore, became a proper subject for Senate inquiry.

Within the sanctuary were Rev Dr Edmund T. Shannahan and his two curates.

QUINCY, Feb 14-The flag on City Hall was placed at half-staff today by orders of Mayor Thomas J. McGrath as a tribute to the memory of Brooks Adams, who died in Boston yesterday and for whom funeral services will be conducted tomorrow afternoon in the First Parish Church, where are burled Mr Adams grandfather. President John Quincy Adams, and his greatgrandfather, President John Adams. Mr Adams was the son of Charles Francis Adams, who was the United States Ambassador to England during the dark days of the Civil War. Mayor McGrath said of Mr Adams this morning: In the death of Mr Adams, the last of four grandsons of the sixth President of the United States passes from the public stage.

In later years Mr Adams had not been very active in political matters, although only six years ago he was one of the Quincy delegates to the Constitutional convention. In that assembly he- took a very active and Important part and, largely through his efforts, the initiative and referendum were made part of our basic law. Social questions made a very large appeal to Mr Adams and in his writings he always emphasized the need of testing every public question from the social as well as the political side. A True Democrat He was a true Democrat, not i.j the sense, of being a partisan, but as an exponent of the true ideal of real democracy. This strong trait in his character also implied that he was a true liberal.

Mr Adams, like all his brothers, was a strong individualist and could be counted upon at all times to express the unique and sometimes revolutionary point of view. This truth was quite conspicuous in view of his public experience in Quincy. But while a great many of our townspeople were 'not in agreement with him in some of the ideas which he espoused, and consequently could not view matters from his advanced ground, there was, nevertheless, an almost unanimous opinion that Mr Adams always spoke from conviction and from a well-grounded knowledge of his subject. Mr Adams will be long remembered by a host of lawyers as one of the professors in Boston University. On purely legal subjects he had written much, but his strong forte was in discussing political and social questions, and some of his contributions to these matters are extremely valuable as expressing the opinions of a man Who was the last of the old line of positives.

He was likewise a firm believer in the doctrine that the State and Nation had their respective places in the political structure, and was unwilling to see encroachment by either on their well-defined rights. In his social studies he viewed with some misgivings the rapid growth and concentration of wealth in the control of a few powerful men. In this development he saw a real menace to our American ideals, and in his writings he also emphasized this danger of concentration. If we must express our regret in the death of Mr Adams it Is that men of this type are altogether too few In the public life of today. He had the training and the means to live his life in detachment from the influence which usually molds opinion, and so cculd, speak fearlessly concerning some of the disquieting phases of American business and political practices.

With Adams background he could nothing less than oppose these tendencies. GUILTY OF ATTACK ON CAMBRIDGE GIRL H. M. Thompson Will Be Sentenced Today Harvey M. Thompson, Cambridge colored man.

SAYS NEW ENGLAND NEEDS SHOW WINDOW Waltham Man Urges the Value of Advertising The trouble with New England is that it has been altogether too modest. What it needs is a show window, so that the Nation can see its real values.

Ex-Pres Charles Potter of the Waltham Chamber of Commerce gave this opinion to the Legislative Committee on Municipal Finance today at the hearing on the bill that cities and towns be authorized upon vote of the municipal officials to expend up to one-twentieth of the assessed valuation, not to exceed $50,000, for advertising its resources, advantages and attractions. Representative Albert W. Bullock was in charge of the bill. Pres Cedric C. Chase of the Waltham Chamber was unable to be present and Ex-Pres Potter spoke in his stead.

There is no denying, said Mr Potter, that advertising is of value to a community, but just at present it becomes almost a necessity as a defensive matter because of the definite campaign by cities of the South and West, in advertising and magazine articles, all indicating to the reading public that New England Is becoming decadent. This Is untrue, he said, but is due to these other sections getting after New England business and Industry with a view to moving them bodily, or making them establish branches in their communities. The trouble with New England, he said, is that it has been altogether too modest. It actually is going ahead and it is time that it let the Nation know. What Massachusetts and New England need is a show window, so that the Nation can see its real values.

Edward G. Stacey, secretary of the State Chamber of Commerce, explained that this years bill omits the compulsory popular subscription feature, on which last years bil was defeated in a referendum to the Chambers of the State. The referendum so far this year, he said, stands 24 to 9 in favor of the measure. Charles H. Brown of Osterville.

Andrew J. Casassa of Revere, E. B. Walker, secretary of the Fitchburg Chamber and representing the Mayor, also recorded in favor. Representative Martha Brooks of Gloucester explained the success of that city under its special act, in advertising its attractions and in drawing to the city not only new Industry, but greatly Increased tourist traffic.

There was no opposition. TWO BRITISH REGIMENTS LAND, PARADE IN SHANGHAI SHANGHAI, Feb 14 (A. A regiment each of Durham and Gloucestershire troops landed here today and paraded through the principal streets. Chinese crowds lined the route of March. There was some hissing.

The steamer Suiwo arrived today, bringing 170 refugees, the majority of them American missionaries from Szechwan Province. The Suiwo normally carries only 22 first-class passengers. chus. Gradually the Southern party gathered strength, and last August an army of Cantonese, under a young man, Chiang Kai-Shek, worked northward through Hunan right to the veiy gates of the three cities of Wuchang, Hankow and Hanyang, called the Wuhan Center, which forms the very hub of the Chinese world. The Northern troops crumpled before them; they were aided by wholesale treachery, and by early October the Wuhan Center was In the hands of the Cantonese.

Russians Drilled Southern Army It was not entirely owing to Chinese skill that this surprisingly rapid advance was made. The Southerners have large help from a body of able Russians. The rSoutherners airplanes were manned by Russians and the armies were drilled by them. The most prominent of them are Comrade Borodin, who Is the political adviser, and Gen Galens, the military adviser. It was not long before the Chinese in the central cities learned what these Russians stood for.

Handbills dropped in the streets like snowflakes and the people were instructed to down with all that was not to the liking of the new rulers. The first thing to go was everything In the shape of liberty of speech, liberty of the press, or liberty of thought. Prior to their arrival the Southerners used the language of the Declaration of Independence, but their actions were like those of the Russian Cheka. The Government openly espoused the doctrines of the Soviet and commenced at once to force Russian methods on the Chinese. The first move was against capitalism.

The doctrine of the dictatorship of the proletariat was preached everywhere, and the workers were ordered to form labor unions. Every worker was forced Into a union. No justice was possible for an employer; he was without the pale, a hated capitalist. Workers Didnt AVant to Strike Rev Mr Helps told of the strike which followed, with the workers unable to negotiate for themselves and the employers helpless, with no law to help them. In a short time Hankow was in confusion.

The workers did not want to strike, but were forced out by the strike-pickets, a body of Russian-trained young men who acted as an arm of the military. The subsequent happenings were told by Mr Helps, who described the spread of the terrorism until it was aimed not alone at capital, but at Christianity also, and finally the hatred of the inspired Chinese turned on Great Britain. action of the British marines In standing under great abuse without firing a shot, which would have precipitated a general massacre, was praised. The missionaries and Christians in Hankow moved to Shanghai for Hankow has shown what the Can-ton-Russian combination can do with a prosperous port; and when the Powers declare their determination that they will protect their nationals at Shanghai from mob violence they are doing no more than their duty, and in so doing will gain the respect of all right-thinking peoples and not least of the Chinese themselves, many of whom are ashamed of the actions of a tyrannical Government that they fain would ovthrow if they could. ABOUT 100 MISSIONARIES MAY RETURN TO FOOCHOW MANILA, Feb 14 (A.

Approximately 100 missionaries who came here from China as refugees are considering plans to return to their field. They have received word that the Chinese Government will guarantee them protection. Most of them came here from Foochow. CITY CLUB ADDS 270 TO ITS MEMBERSHIP Pres Breed Says to Expand It Must Have More Funds The first report luncheon of the Boston City Club membership drive was held this noon in the auditorium of the clubhouse. Horace S.

Ford, chairman of the campaign, presided. It was announced that 270 new members had been added to the roster since the drive began last Thursday. Of these, 185 were signed up by team-workers, while 85 joined through the regular channels. Charles B. Breed, president of the City Club, said that the organization never had a deficit, but the club wanted to do bigger and better things, and in order to make this possible, it was necessary to obtain more funds.

Mr Breed declared that it was the policy of the club to secure national speakers. The club is a civic Institution and in order to keep pace with the progress made in other Boston institutions, it must expand. POSTPONE RECEPTION TO MRSMEDILL MCCORMICK The reception for Mrs Mediil McCormick at the Womens Republican Club, 46 Beacon st, was postponed this afternoon because of serious sickness in the family which prevented her leaving Washington. Mrs McCormick is the widow of Senator McCormick of Chicago. She has been a Republican national committee woman from Illinois since June 1924.

Eight Men Removed After Investigation Into Conditions at Brighton Stockyards Special Pinpatch to the Globe NORTON, Feb 14 Speaking from 23 years Intimate knowledge of the Chinese, his subject being Hankow Under the Soviet; a Residents Personal Experiences, Rev J. Sidney Helps, until the early days of January of this year in charge of the Wesleyan Mission of the Britany Methodist Church in the region of Hankow, yesterday told the congregation of the Chartley Methodist Church here that he has yet faith to believe that ultimately the Chinese will throw off their Moscow masters and return to sanity. Rev Mr Helps, his wife and their three children are visiting his brother, Rev G. Stanley Helps, pastor of the local church. Within a few days they expect to sail for England.

His knowledge of conditions and of the temperament of the Chinese is extensive. He places the entire blame for the present 6tate of affairs upon the agents of Soviet Russia. Mr Helps and his family fled from Hankow only a few days before the crisis came for foreign residents, and they are yet wondering about the safety of some of their close friends. They proceeded to Shanghai and eventually landed in Vancouver, coming directly here, with the exception of a brief stop in Toronto. Terrorism Will Not Be Tolerated In closing his address before the congregation, which filled the church and which included many visitors from other communities interested in the subject, Mr Helps said: Where is China heading? Who shall say? After 25 years intimate knowledge of the Chinese I yet have faith to believe that ultimately they will throw off their Moscow masters and return to sanity.

Marxian Communism with its predatory policy is ill-suited to the Chinese genius, and the present methods of terrorism will not for long be tolerated by the people. But China has a long road yet to travel, and the first lesson she needs to learn is that the cause of her trouble docs not lie with the foreign Nations, but with herself, and that a people which desires admittance to the family of Nations must show itself worthy by acting in a civilized way. The best of the Chinese fully realize this and once they can make their influence felt we shall see a change for the better. With these saner arm high-minded Chinese lies the hope of the future. Down With Capitalism and God In opening his talk Rev Mr Helps said: "There are two words in the Chinese language that have been working overtime for the past six months Dah which means to strike to beat.

and dow, which means 'down Dah-dow, to beat down, is about' the equivalent for our down with, and the new government of Central China has a wide program or down withs. If you could read Chinese you would find that the streets in Hankow are plastered with posters, all calling for something or somebody' to be downed. The majority of these placards cry Down with Britain, Down with the North, Down with Capitalism, Down with those who oppose Down -with Christianity and finally, Down with God. The Cantonese faction in this latest of Chinas civil wars are great believers in propaganda. Handbills are cheaper than bullets, and when distributed amongst uneducated people who are not allowed to hear the other side, more effective.

Ever sinpe the revolution In 1911, China has been getting steadily worse. The Government fell into the hands of a number of war lords, who established a state of feudalism, and warred one against the other, till the whole land groaned, and the people were in a worse plight than under the old Man- MRS MENTZER DIES IN.

Ryder, who has been temporarily relieved from duty at the Customhouse, will make any state- ment. One of tho first problems that confronted Director Cummings when Gov Fuller drafted him for the task of cleaning up ihe livestock situation in Massachusetts was the suspicion of the dairy industory toward the Brighton stockyards. Dairymen told the new director frankly that he could make no headway in his campaign to eradicate tuberculosis in dairy cattle until the cattle owners could have a safer replacement source than Brighton provided.

Director Cummings went after the stockyard management and secured their cooperation in providing segregated quarters for clean tested cattle to be sold for dairy herds. Mr Cummings was able to announce this promise of the stockyards management for a safety zone for clean cattle, a few days ago, to livestock dealers, who accept it as evidence that the stockyards management welcomes a housecleaning to remove the long-felt suspicion of the livestock industry.

Ryder, who has been removed, with seven of his inspectors, following a Federal Investigation into conditions at the Brighton stock yards.
