TRIBUTE MD 1 AT BANQUETHERE Democrats Say Montana Senator Is Admirably Equipped for High Office He Seeks Not only because of his stand on the liquor issue but because of his perioral outstanding ability Senator Thomas J. Walsh of Montana is admirably fitted to administer the office of President of the United States, It was stated by speakers at the California hotel last night at a banquet of San Bernardino county Democrats. The qualifications of the Montana Senator for the office were dwelt upon at length by a rfumber of speakers at the banquet, given by C. M. Brown of Redlands, head of the San Bernardino county Walsh-for- President forces.

There were 44 persons present. President Coolldge Gets Criticism President Coolldge came In for severe criticism at the hands of Mr. Brown for his methods of enforcing the liquor Mr. Brown said that, as head of the army and navy, Mr. Coolldge ought to have sufficient forces to check the liquor traffic In the United States.

He stated that during the holiday sea son this year 16 rum runners were counted lying off the coast at Santa Catalina island, asserting that they all succeeded in landing their cargoes of refreshment. N. I Levering, who acted as toastmaster, said that he was a Democrat because virtually all the humanitarian legislation of the last 30 or 40 years has emanated. from that party. He came out strongly for Senator Walsh for the next President of the United States.

Smith Assailed By L. A. Attorney His brother, Martin M. Levering, Los Angeles attorney, voiced his opposition to any candidate who does not stand solidly behind the Constitution of the United States as a whole. He held that Gov.

At Smith New York, the other outstanding candidate for the Democratic nomination. Is not a supporter of the Constitution because of his views on the liquor question. High tribute was paid to Senator Walsh by James H. Lyle of Red-lands, formerly of Montana, who knew the Senator. He pointed out that Walsh was elected Senator by a 65 per cent majority In a district which was three-to-one Republican.

The resaon for this, according to Mr. Lyle, was his known ability as a statesman and his opposition to graft and corruption. Walsh Is Compared To Woodrow Wilson Mrs. Amy Kramer Roberts of San Bernardino states that she is for Walsh because she is a Wll-sonian Democrat, and that the traits of the famed war-time President were exemplified In the Montana Senator. She is a candidate for delegate to the Houston convention on the Walsh ticket Other speakers were John K.

(In the railroad column of The Sun yesterday morning mention was made of the transfer of the railroad clock from the station at Devore, where It had hung for more than 20 years, to an office at Santa Fe division headquarters in this city. Announcement of the closing of tho Devore station, due to the absence of local business, was made some weeks ago.

The Devore postofflce will still be maintained by the Davlses in the station building. The circumstance calls out the following from the facile pen or typewriter of Mrs. Davis, who is tha wife of H. B. Davis, long-time the Santa Fe agent at Devore.) THE LAST STRAW Admitting that "you-all" knew best, We acquiesced without protest, Freely relinquishing our salary; (We old folks live on half a We never cared a hoot about The semaphore that's down and out; Some other things we gladly lose Tariffs and such "we do not That endless telegraphic chatter Has ceased, but that's no killing matter.

We both were feeling fine and gay Until the day That dear Al Ray Came Up dnti took our clock away! Our office clock whose honest face For 'twenty years hung in Its place, Politely pointing, at his need, The time, that he who ran might read-The station clock whose soft tick-tockery Still echoes here in painful mockery: Lost vamosed, kidnaped gone departed!

Davis said yesterday that he and Alexander accused In the complaint with failnre to pay $1 for a meal they secured at the Cottage hotel in Randsburg on the second night they were there. Davis stated he had paid an employe of the hotel for the meal and that nothing was said of the bill not being paid while he and Alexander were in Randsburg.

When the defendants arrived for trial the courtroom was filled, many of the spectators being from Inn City, including some who had been arrested In last week's raid. One man came close to Davis and lynching, he declared SAN BERNARDINO DAILY STTN. SATURDAY, MARCH 31, 1928 After thi trial two Kern county officers spirited Davis and Alexander away in an automobile, dropping them off at Mojave, 50 miles from Randsburg. As they left the crowd was gathering around them, Davis said. "We first expected to fight the charge, of which we were not really guilty," Davis said.

"But when the man whom I paid threatened to fight me right in the courtroom when I asked him if I had not paid him I saw the attitude of the crowd and witnesses, so took the easiest way out and pleaded guilty."
