LETTER ON NARCOTIC GANG HELD BY POLICE Signed “Dr. R.,”’ It Mentions Demand for $150 and Other Obligations. = Chicago, Jan. 5 (By A. P.).— Evelyn Nesbit Thaw, whose pro- longed New Year’s party ended early today when she tried to kill herself by swallowing poison, to- night was reported resting quietly at a hospital here, although still in a serious condition. Doctors who at first believed her suicide attempt would prove fatal, tonight expressed the hope that they would be able to save her life. They said she had a chance to re- cover because she had been drink- ing alcohol, which is an antidote for the poison she took. Dr. E. Thomas Brand, Mrs. Thaw’s physician, said in a state- ment tonight that a great improve- ment had been shown in the pa- tient’s condition during the day, but that she was by no means out of danger. **No One’s Affair But Mine.”’ Regarding the reason for her act, Dr. Brand said Mrs. Thaw had stated that it was ‘‘no one’s affair but my own,” and added that the ethics of his profession prohibited him from giving out any informa- tion as to what he had learned. The divorced wife of Harry K. Thaw, who several years ago had tried suicide, had been filling an engagement as a cabaret entertain- | today for Florida to fill a similar engagement. Mrs. Thaw’s 15-year-old son Rus- sell, who is here from the East for a holiday vacation, was with his mother when she tried to end her life. Mrs. Thaw’s negro maid sum- moned him and he prepared an anti- dote and hurried her to the hos- pital. His prompt action, doctors said, helped her chances for recov- ery. Report of Party Denied. Neighbors said there had been a party in the Thaw apartment last night, but the maid and Russell denied this, although they admitted Mrs. Thaw had been drinking heav- ily since New Year’s and had re- turned home Monday with a broken nose. The maid said Mrs. Thaw asked for a glass of water about 4 o’clock this morning. Going to the bath- room, she then swallowed the poli- son. A cryptic letter found in her apartment signed ‘‘Dr. R.,’’ post- marked Brownsville, Pa., January 1, and beginning, ‘‘Dearest Eve,” was seized by the police for inquiry. Narcotic Gang Mentioned. '“Dam narcotic gang were push- ing me for the $150,’’ it ran, “‘but had to meet a truckload almost of obligations and could not connect up with friends here or Pittsburgh; only have a limited time to send on cash; banks and everything would be closed Christmas day. (Got panicky.) Thought Al might give me a lift for a hundred; wired him; no answer.”’ Another letter, beginning ‘‘Dear Florence’’ and signed ‘‘Mama,”’ evi- dently written to Miss Nesbit, was mailed at Pittsburgh December 30. It indicated that Evelyn had been having trouble with her throat and teeth. Russell Thaw, apparently greatly frightened over his mother’s act, gave a long signed statement to the police and was released. He came here December 21 to spend the holi- days with his mother. He went to a motion-picture theater last night, he said, return- ing to the apartment about 11 o'clock, and retiring about 1:45 a. m. His mother’s maid called him about 4:30 a. m., he said, and told: him Miss Nesbit was ill. Learning her condition, he called Dr. Brand.’ Prepared an Antidote. He read upon the bottle of poi. son the antidote and prepared one. He went to the hospital with her in the ambulance. He said he knew no reason why his mother should try to kill her- self.

He Stands on Previous Statement. Special to The Washington Post. ‘ Atlantic City, N. J., Jan. 56.—Mr. and Mrs. Irving Berlin, in the guarded seclusion of the bridal suite of the Ritz-Carlton hotel here today sought to bridge the 52 years that separated the arrival of two immigrant families in America by seeking forgiveness from the representative of the one that arrived first. John William Mackay arrived at the Battery from Dublin in 1840. Moses Baline, from Russia, bringing along little Isadore, now Irving Berlin, entered the same turnstile to fame in'1892. And, since the Mackay fortune dated from 1872 when the Bonanza mines panned out in the West, and the Berlin estate started in 1910 when jazz started to run big, seni- ority beyond question perched on the side of the family of the bride, to which overtures were made from the seaside resort haven. Messages to Clarance H. Mackay, father of Mrs. Berlin, and Postal Telegraph and Commercial Cables head, and to Mrs. Joseph A. Blake, her mother, set forth the facts and asked for reconciliation. With this overture, the honey- moon poked its silvery head above the cloud of opposition and pro- ceeded to shine on just as though there existed nothing that might, in any event, eclipse the radiance. Whatever family action is to be taken may come before Saturday when the Leviathan will find, hanging over the rail as the liner clears the harbor, a young couple who will still be gazing skyward toward the moon of lovers, in the good old-fashioned way. The song writer and his society bride came at midnight by motor to the Atlantic City hotel. A newsboy on the boardwalk penetrated what was to have been a secret by recog- nizing Berlin. The suite had been en- gaged by the then Miss Ellin Mackay on the day before. They did not register. They left orders that they were not to be disturbed. They breakfasted in their rooms. At 2:30 this afternoon, when the cou- ple came down for lunch, they seemed very happy. ‘‘We married purely on the im- pulse of the moment,’’ they said in chorus. ‘‘We are not sorry for what we have done and we have asked forgiveness of Mrs. Berlin’s parents and hope to get it.’’ Bennie Bloom, who looks after the heralding of Irving Berlin, de- CONTINUED ON EIGHTH PAGE. er here, and was scheduled to leave wee Stowe, | Etheridge, musical comed OAVES 2 BOYS TRAPPED | DAYS IN IGE ON REEE n| New City Manager at Cincin- Brother of One, Lashed Boat, Travels 100 Miles in Cold and Gale. ——$—$—$_—$—_ $$ SAILS BACK WITH BOTH Elizabeth City, N. C., Jan. 5 (By P.).—The heroic rescue by Sam- of Hatteras, of his brother and- a companion, both mere boys, stranded on Cape Reef three days and two nights, in the coldest weather known in Carolina Sound county in 30 years, was told of here today, for the first time. Stowe, with disregard for his own safety, ventured forth alone in a small gas boat eight days ago to find his brother, Roosevelt Stowe, and his companion, Milton Haskett, who left this city the Saturday be- fore for Hatteras; 100 miles away, and had not been heard from. Faring forth on the coldest day recorded in Carolina Sound county in 30 years, Stowe lashed himself to his boat, so that, if he should freeze, his body woud be recovered. A heavy gale was blowing. When others volunteered to ac- company him, Stowe declined their proffers. By chance he located the boys’ speedboat stranded on Cape Reef, eight miles from Hatteras. Semiconscious, after three days and two nights’ exposure, the boys hailed him feebly. He assisted them into his own boat, and, with his oilskins in ice, carried them triumphantly back with him to Hat- teras. Veterans who know the fury of winter gales in the bleak lower sound county, declare the two res- cued youths could not possibly have lasted through the night. Roose- velt Stowe’s feet were frozen. ACTION AGAINST WIFE BY DUKE OF LEINSTER Nature of Suit Not Revealed in Scotch Record—He Is in New York. Edinburgh, Scotland, Jan. 5 (By A. P.).—The rolls of the court of session issued here tonight contain notice of an action by the Duke of Leinster against his wife. Frederick George Newell, of Chris- tichurch, Hampshire, is named as codefender. The nature of the action is not stated, but the court, of session ex. evcisos the highest civil jurisdiction in Scotland, with the house of lords as a court of appeal. The Duke of Leinater is now in New York. The Duke of Leinster arrived in New York, January 3, on the liner Adriatic. He made the trip to at- tend to some business matters, and expected to return to England, Jan- uary 16. He married Miss May actreas, in 1913, despite the protests of his family. He succeeded to the duke- dom in 1922. FLORIDA—BEST SERVICE TO ALL resorts of ‘Fl lorida, Cuba, South.

SEPARATE PENSION BOOY FOR MOTHERS GAINS ASCENDANCY District Spokesmen Are surprised by Plan of New York Group. 3 LEADERS DISCLOSE AGREEMENT ON BILL Mrs. G. S. Grosvenor Argues for Unified Control of Charities Here. A strong New York social lobby rode roughshod over the views of District spokesmen at the House subcommittee hearing on proposed District mothers’ pensions legisla- tion yesterday. At the end of the meeting a so-called compromise plan, providing that the pensions fund would be administered by a separate agency, had the upper hand with the indications that it will be adopted by the subcommit- tee at its meeting tomorrow. Headed by Miss Sophie Irene Loeb, the New York delegation dis- avowed any intention of dictating to Washingtonians, but made known that the separate agency plan ‘‘must’”’ be accepted. Washington spokesmen were ap- parently taken off their feet with the explanation at the outset of the meeting that Representative Keller, chairman of the subcommittee; Re- presentative Mills, of New York, author of a bill embodying the sep- arate agency plan, and Miss Loeb had met Monday night and agreed upon a “compromise” bill. Keller Explains Change. Mr. Keller, who introduced the bill providing that the fund be ad- ministered by the proposed board of public welfare, said he had really changed his mind before the Mon- day night.meeting. He had come to the conclusion, he said, that such important work as that attendant upon mothers’ pensions should be carried on by a separate board with no other cares. Mrs. Gilbert S. Grosvenor, chair- man of the joint committee of local social, civic and welfare agencies, sought to stem the separate agency tide, but with little success. Mrs. Grosvenor told of the years of effort here to stimulate support for the plan of coordinating all charitable agencies and now that the public viewpoint has been brought around to the support of the welfare bill, another separate agency is contem- plated. But Miss Loeb, who was de- scribed by first one spokesman and another as the most experienced so- cial worker in the country, had a ready retort to any suggestion against the separate agency. Miss Loeb's Retort. “Would you care to put your mothers’ pensions in the same cate- gory as the treatment of delin- quents, recalcitrants and _ crimi- nals?’’ ‘ | Mrs. Grosvenor told of the meet- ing at her home at which the vari- ous local organizations concerned had indorsed Mr. Keller’s bill as have the District commissioners in preferment to the separate agency plan.

STEAMER 5 GROUNDED IN FOG 195 TIKEN ASHORE Dense Banks of Moisture Imperil Walkers and Motorists Here. BALMY WIND BLAMED BY. WEATHER BUREAU —_———— + ro Auto Plunges Over Sidewalk in Southeast; Coastwise Shipping Tied Up. Washington will emerge today from one of the worst fogs in its history,“°a fog which caused a large steamer to run aground, slowed down motor traffic, tied up river transportation, and otherwise in- convenienced the city. The outstanding accident of the day befell the steamer ‘District of Columbia,” of the Norfolk and Washington line, which lost its way in the fog and went aground off Quantico, Va. Its 125 passengers were taken ashore by a tug boat. The steamer was still aground at a late hour, and two tugs were standing by to pull her off at high tide this morning. It was hoped that the vessel would float off jat high tide last night, but this did not happen. An automobile, whose driver is believed to have been baffled by the fog, plunged over the sidewalk at Eleventh street and Virginia avenue southeast, yesterday .morning and tore away a section of the fence which girdles the public playground there, Chesapeake bay was shrouded in fog, according to word received here, and a number of large ships were delayed. Several ships were anchored in Chesapeake bay wait- ing for the mists to lift before dock- ing. “4 Warm Winds Responsible. Warm winds coming in contact with the cold ground precipitated the .fog, Forecaster Weightman ex- plained last night. Freezing weath- er, which is about normal for this time of the year, will arrive today, he said, and the fog will disappear. Old inhabitants were heard to say yesterday that the fog was the most dense they had ever seen, but Forecaster Weightman could not concur in this. The-fog, he said, while unusually heavy, was by no means ‘‘phenomenal.”’ Automobile speeders apparently were awed by the fog yesterday and last night, as only five arrests for this offense were recorded. Usually there are twenty or more. Buses Behind Schedule. Buses running from Washington to distant points were seriously de- layed by the fog. The drivers ex- plained that they were afraid to run at their usual speed, The District of Columbia was due to dock here at 7 o’clock yes- terday morning and was 6% hours behind schedule when she foundered on a mud bank off Quantico. The United States marine base was only a short distance away, and a call for assistance, shouted through a megaphone by Capt. Geoghegan, soon brought a marine tug to the scene. The passengers were all safely landed by 3:30 o’clock. Brought Here by Train. The passengers were put on a special train in Quantico and brought to this city. The crew re- mained on the steamer. The Northland, the other steam- er operated by the Norfolk.& Wash- ington line, left Norfolk for this city at 5:45 o'clock yesterday after- noon, and was reported as making slow but safe progress. The fog was thickest yesterday in the vicinity of Potomac park. The Lincoln memorial was invisible to a person more than 50 feet away. CONTINUED ON FIFTH PAGE, W.A.

SENATE AGAIN CONFIRMS MIS3 DELLS NOMINATION Votes Favorably for Civil Service Commissioner After Hearing Protests. LETTERS READ BY KING The nomination of Miss Jessie Dell as a member of the civil service commission was again confirmed by the Senate late yesterday. Meeting in closed session, the Senate heard letters of protest read by Senator King, of Utah, who had had the Senate reconsider its pre- vious action in confirming Miss Dell. But at the end the Senate again voted favorably for her. Although the Senate considered her appointment nearly an hour, the reading of the letters of protest is understood to have largely taken up the time. Senator King, although voting against her, is un- derstood not to have carried his opposition further than submitting the protests. Miss Dell, a native of Georgia, but long a resident here, was ap- pointed to succeed Mrs. Helen H. Gardener upon the latter’s death, Strong opposition developed from Democratic women’s organizations on the ground that she was not a representative Democratic ap- pointee. Democratic senators generally were inclined to look upon her ap- pointment more as a Republican choice than a Democratic prefer- ment, in that Senator Smoot, of Utah, and Director General Lord, cf the budget, sponsored her. The fact, however, that she had the sup- port of the two Georgia senators made the opposition among Demo- crats but lukewarm. Officer Slays Man At Lieutenant’ s Desk New York, Jan. 5 (By A. P.).— In front of the lieutenant’s desk in a Brooklyn police station today, Policeman John J.

The policeman was arrested and a physician reported him as intoxi- cated. Brennan went into the glazier’s store at noon today and demanded $2. Refused it, he hit the glazier on the head with his police stick. It was of this that Kraniof had gone to the station house to complain when he was shot.

IMMEDIATE ACTION? ~ 1S HALTED BY REED Mellon Firm Called Monopoly; Explanation Sought on Lack of Prosecution. (By the Associated Press.) A double-barreled attack on the Aluminum Co. of America, in which Secretary Mellon is a large stockholder, was launched yester- day in Congress. The assault in the Senate was di- rected primarily at the failure of the Attorney General to bring con- tempt proceedings against the com- pany for alleged violations of Fed- eral court decrees and the action of the Federal Trade Commission in withholding important evidence from the Department of Justice. House Attack Broader. the attack covered a broader range, Representative Oldfield (Democrat), Arkansas, pro- posing a general investigation with a special view to ascertaining whether the Aluminum Co. is a monopoly and if so whether tariffs on crude and partially. finished aluminum have contributed to the creation of such a monopoly. The Senate resolutions—two in number——were offered by Senator Walsh (Democrat), Montana, who asked immediate consideration for them. On objection of Senator Reed (Republican), Pennsylvania, they went over until today. The Oldfield resolution was re- ferred to the House ways and means committee, which under its terms would conduct the broad in- quiry the chairman of the Demo- In the House, mittee seeks to have made. Asks About Evpedition, The first of the Walsh tions would direct the Senate judic- iary committee to inquire whether “‘due expedition has been observed by the Department of Justice in the prosecution of the inquiry so in- itiated on the direction of former Attorney General Stone, or which he reported would be initiated.”’ The second would direct Attorney General Surgent to advise the Sen- ate whether the refusal of the trade commission to turn over evidence obtained from the Aluminum Co. of America was well founded in law, and if not, what steps had been taken by the department to obtain this evidence. In presenting the _ resolutions, Senator Walsh called attention that on October 8, 1924, the trade com- mission reported to the Justice De- partment that ‘‘the Aluminum Co. of America had been guilty of prac- tices violative of the decree of the court in 1912 in continuing the practices enjoined by that decree.” On January 30, 1925, Senator Walsh continued, the then Attor- ney General Stone promulgated ‘a letter to the trade commission in which he said: “It is apparent that during the time covered by your report the Aluminum Co. of America violated several provisions of the decree; that with respect to some of thé practices complained of, they were so frequent and long continued, a fair inference is the company either was indifferent to the provisions of the decree or knowingly intended that its provisions should be dis- regarded with a view to suppress- ing competition in the aluminum industry.’”’ Extended Only to 1922, Since the commission’s investiga- tion «xtended down only to 1922 and the statute of limitation. in such cases runs after one year, the Jus- tice Department decided that it would be necessary to continue the investigation, and the trade com- mission was so informed. Senator Walsh recited that, aftef submitting its report, the commis- evidence in the case and invited that department to send representatives to examine its files. A few days later, however, the eommission, by Walsh added, that “‘the all-impaye tant evidence” obtained from tie aluminum company should be hel confidential.

Conway, drove up to Scott circle, while 100 or more persons of prominence were wit- nessing the proceedings. A police- man stopped the coupe. : “Don’t you know that horse- drawn vehicles are forbidden on this street?’’ he demanded, and added, with official scorn, ‘‘Read the signs.”’ The passenger leaned said: ' “Officer, I read the sign.

Later @ police conference was called on this flouting of the law. Assistant Corporation Counsel Ringgold Hart Was consulted. What the Courts Hold. “The courts have held,” said he, ‘that mule-drawn and _ . horse- drawn are the same thing.”’ “Despite this ruling, however, the mule-drawn equipage drove up and down Sixteenth street for some out and time unmolested by the policemen. } All the District commissioners, Maj. and Supt. of Police Edwin B. Hesse, Chief Engineer George S. Watson, of the fire de- partment; Rudolph Wose, Traffic Director Eldridge, and his assistant, I. C. Moller, and Representative Frank H.

Drunken drivers and insane pa- tients at St. Elizabeths hospital should have their permits revoked immediately, Mr. Eldridge declared, but under the present law it is im- possible for the director of traffic to revoke their permits until after conviction in the courts. During a discussion of the pro- posed ban on all-night parking, sentiment showed that the associa- tion was opposed to the measure. Mr. Eldridge urged the members garding the new automatic light system on Sixteenth street. sei | these lights had been in operation a month ago,” Mr. Eldridge stated, ‘fone less automobile fatality would have occurred.’’ Mr. Eldridge predicted dire re- sults for the motorist, who, in the of the association to become famil- | far immediately with the rules re- | the right of way at crosswalks. However, Mr. Eldridge stated, that pedestrians would ‘‘take their lives in their own hands in crossing Six- teenth street when the lights are against them.” Recent inquests by the coroner’s jury in traffic fatalities have al- ways resulted in the same old ver- dict of “‘accidental death,’ Mr. El- dridge declared. He deplored the increasing tendency on the part of Washington motorists in failing to give the pedestrian the right-of-way at cross walks. Man Held on Charge Of Stealing Checks Donald C. McGill, 39 years old, 2810 Cathedral avenue northwest, was arrested yesterday by Detec- tives John Flaherty and John Fowl- er, and released in $500 bail on a charge of obtaining money under false pretenses.

These are, first, safe- ty, and second, expeditidn. In the view of the excteutive these must be sought after es- pecially in this city. The Presi- dent, however, is undefstood to have no personal views on how the new traffic laws and regula- tionS are working out here in Washington because, when he goes out, he is accompanied by officers who see that his progress is expedited and ‘that he is never endangered by vehicles. While the President is under- stood to be watching the prog- ress of the various experiments now being tried out here, he has taken no position, one way or the other, according to officials at the White House, on whether changes in existing law are nec- essary or advisable. MAN SHOOTS HIMSELF AFTER ROW WITH WIFE Quarrel Starts When Mother Smacks Infant Son for Seizing Food. William Owen Moore, years old, committed suicide in the second floor bedroom of his home, 408 Kentucky avenue southeast, last night by shooting himself in the head. His suicide, according. to a story told the police by his 20-year-old wife, Mrs, Thelma Moore, and his nephew, Hyman Brown, followed a quarrel with his wife. The quar- rel was precipitated, Mrs. Moore is said to have told police, when she smacked the hands of their 17- month-old son for grabbing food on the dinner table. Her husband struck her and she fainted. When she was revived he left the room remorseful. She sat talking to his nephew while pre- paring the baby for bed and then started upstairs to put the child to bed. As they approached the bed- room door Moore called that they should not enter and slammed the door, and shot himself. Coroner Nevitt issued a certificate of sui- cide.

Search by police of this city, nearby Maryland and Virginia, was instituted last night for two neatly dressed young men, who attempted to abduct Miss Irene Grichback, 22 years old, 216 Second street southeast, Monday night. The attempted abduction was not revealed to police until last night, as Miss Grichback has been con- fined to her home since the inci- dent. She was walking heme from work, she told police, when- she passed an automobile at Second and A streets, and was accosted by one of the young men, occupants of the car. ' She repulsed his advances, police were told, and he grabbed her and attempted to drag her to the machine, in which sat the other man. She screamed and fought off her assailant as best she could, un- til W. S. Schober, 9 Fourth street southeast, attracted by her erjes, ran to her aid. The car was driven off when Schober came into sight. Caraway Would Ban Intermarriage Here Intermarriage of white persons and negroes would constitute a felony in the District under the terms of a measure introduced by Senator Caraway, of Arkansas, in the Senate yesterday. Those inter- married now living here would be allowed to remain, but once they left the District they could not re- turn, while no intermarried persons would be allowed to come here, ac- cording to the bill: Another * measure Caraway would by Senator provide that 30 days’ application be made of the District commissioners. before a hotel could raise ifs rates.

PRAISES RELIGIOUS SPIRIT Commissioner Fenning based his speech at new Hamline Method. ist church last night on a Bible text. “For He looked for His city which hath foundations,’ words of Hebrews, was the text. The occa- sion was the third night’s service of the church’s dedication week. Applying the text to the city of Washington, the commissioner said it had physical foundations tht were wondérful; mental] ones, well laid; legal ones, resting foursquare on the laws of the land, and strong religious foundations in its churches. “There are thos@\who say they have no interest in the church; that do not go to church, said Dr. William Mather Lewis, president of George Washington university, another speaker, ‘‘but they do not realize that the church goes . to them. There may be thousands who never enter the doors of this build- ing, yet they cannot pass this beau- tiful church without some benefit.” “The neighborhood .is proud of it,’ said President Edgar B. Hen- derson, Piney Branch Citizens asso- ciation, which often held meetings in the former Hamline church. Maj. Edwin B. Hesse and Chief Engineer George S. Watson were unable to be present to speak. The meeting was termed “City and Community Night,”’ and Harry C, James, church trustee, and chairman of the build- ing committee, presided. Fenning Discusses Problems of Office “A Day at the Office’ was the subject of a talk by District Com- missioner Frederick A. Fenning, speaking at the general assembly of the Hine Junior High school, Seventh and C streets southeast, yesterday afternoon.

He was in- troduced by his niece, Miss Ramsey Nevitt, a teacher at the school. H. Ff}. Warner, principal, presided over the meeting. Music was furnished by the school orchestra and Miss Katherine Folmer, a student, sang. Patriotic and school songs were also sung by the student body. VIRGINIA 1925 AUTO TAGS GOOD TO FEB. 1 Maryland and Pennsylvania Drivers, However, Must Have ’26 Licenses Here. Virginia motorists will be given all this month to drive on Wash- ington streets with the 1925 license tags, according to an order issued yesterday. District, Maryland and Pennsylvania drivers will be ar- rested if their cars do not bear 1926 tags. There are about 8,600 resi- dents of Washington who have failed to provide themselves with up-to-date licenses, it is estimated. The police order went out to ar- rest all drivers with outdated ‘tags. Yesterday James M. Hayes, jr., mo- tor vehicle commissioner of Vir- ginia, communicated with Assistant Traffic Director I. C. Moller and said that it would.be February l before his State could undertake to enforce the law on auto licenses, due to. delay in their issuance. He asked to have the 1925 tags honored in the District until that time. His request was relayed to Maj. and Supt. of Police KEd- win B. Hesse, who then instruct- ed his men to let Virginians drive on old tags. CHARGES “WIFE” IS FRAUD. Man Says He Must Pay Alimony to One He Never Marricd. William Kesterson petitioned the equity court yesterday to vacate an order requiring him to pay $35 a month alimony to a woman he says is not and never was his wife. The woman is Mrs. Myrtle Kes- terson, but Kesterson says her name is Myrtle Baker. She sued for maintenance on February 15. He says that she was the lawful wife of John N. Baker for at least six months after the ‘‘pretended cere- mony’”’ in which he figured. To re- quire him to continue paying ali- mony, Kesterson says, is unjust as he never will be able to get any of the money back. Attorney Cran- dall Mackey appeared for Kester- son. Diamond Wrist Watch Lost. Mrs. Thomas Bones, of 1328 Six- teenth street northwest, reported to police yesterday that she had lost a diamond wrist watch valued at $600 on thre street in the vicinity of Thirteenth and F streets north- west, Saturday.

BANS BELMONT TUNNEL Seeking to push the development of the capital near Rock Creék park, the District planning com- mittee yesterday recommended that certain borderlands on both sides of the park now held by the office of public buildings and public parks be turned over to the District com- missioners for street purposes. The planning committee feels that for development purposes a considerable strip of land extending along the parkway from Massachu- setts avenue to Belmont road on the north side and a strip extending southward from Massachusetts ave- Rue, about 1,000 feet on the south side, be turned over. The District commissioners would then cut through streets and assist the de- velopment of the area immediately adjoming the park. Plats of changes in the highway plan about Fort Stevens, Cathedral Close, Foxhall road and Nebraska avenue, which the committee adopt- ed some weeks ago, were viewed at the meeting and will be turned over to the .District commissioners for their guidance. The plan of cutting through Mon- tana avenue from the Soldiers Home southward to Bladensburg road as a main artery of the northeast sec- tion was considered, but action de- ferred. The committee did not agree with the proposal of the Kalorama Citi- zens association to cut Belmont road through as a tunnel under the Connecticut avenue bridge. The road is immediately at the eastern approach of the bridge and it was felt by the citizens’ association that such a step was needed to prevent serious traffic difficulties. The planning committee decided that there is no need for action now and if the difficulties do arise the situation can best be met by con- structing a low-level roadway dip- ping down into the valley. Law for Teachers’ Pensions Amended Representatives of public-school teachers, school executives and members of the board of education amendment to the teachers’ pen- sion law to provide larger annui- ties. The measure, as completed at the meeting held in the office of Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superintendent. of schools, is substantially the same as made public some time ago. The question of further increases will be pushed later, it was said. The measure will be submitted to the full board of education at its meet- ing in the Franklin school this afternoon. SCHOOL BIDS ARE OPENED. Low Price on Francis Juhior High Building is $409,700. Bids were opened yesterday on erection of the proposed John R.

It is believed that Marie Mesmin will be charged with being the in- stigator of the attack, since all the participants were her followers and referred to her as “our saint.’’ To- day she claimed that Father des Noyers was casting a spell over her. Two Men Custody. Instigated Previous Attack. Father des Noyers said that he met the mysterious Mesmin woman during a pilgrimage. He related that after she had instigated an at- tack similar to that which he suf- fered upon a Syrian archimandrite named Sabougi several years ago for tlhe same reasons, he was called upon by the authorities of the dio- cese to attend to her case. ‘‘I did not find her possessed of a demon, ut rather sick,’’ Father des Noyers said, ‘so instead of,using exorcism I treated her with cupping glasses. She .seemed better after that visit and thanked me, but thereafter she pretended that instead of relieving her I cast spells upon her.’’ The priest: added that the Mes- min woman had denounced him and declared she would take justice into her own hands and that when twelve strangers entered the church prior to the attack his®old housekeeper had a premonition and told him ‘they are people of bordeaux.”’ The prosecutor has been struck by the fact that the priest’s parish- ioners did not intervene, although they knew he was closeted with strangers who already have threat- ened him. He was also surprised to find that the aggressors all be- longed to the upper middle class. The ten women. who were releas- ed on their own recognizance were either of independent means or young students. All were con- vinced that the ‘‘health of our saint depended” on the carrying out of their mission. “She is in his grasp,’” they assert. .‘‘He is not a priest, he is a demon,”’ 9 Die of Cholera in Philippine Town, Manila, Jan. 5 ‘(By A.

It has been estimated that proper precautions in saving rub- ber, aided by the utilization of sub- stitutes, would reduce within twelve months one-hait of the amount of raw material imported into the United States, saving exactly that much money now being paid out by the consumers.

The Parker investigation into the lation of prices by foreign exporters of crude rubber and other products, including coffee,,. will start at 2 o’clock today in the com- mittee on foreign and interstate commerce. Secretary Hoover will appear and will make a statement outlining the situation as r@port- ed to him by the division of foreign commerce of his department, which ‘statement will form the basis of the proceedings in the com- mittee. It is expected that Messrs. Firestone, Goodyear and other tire manufacturers will be present at the opening session and that they will be. able to furnish many details of the operations of the British rubber manipu- lators. It is hoped that information will be forthcoming which will enable the committee to make recommendations designed to remedy the situation. The introduction of the resolution for the investigation by Chairman Parker was fol- lowed immediately by vociferous cries from the other side, and already there has been a decided reaction which may possibly extend to the point where the British plantation owners will abandon their squeezing program. The inquiry will continue, however, until the committee is possessed of facts .sufficient to warrant a report to the House. it is intended, will be thorough and exhaust- ive not only as it relates to the rubber market, but also as to other foreign products. The hearings will probably continue. for several weeks. manipu- ~ + -- -- -- & An old-timer is one who can remember when. it sometimes was necessary to steal a kiss. 7 +i GAME BIRDS FROM EUROPE. Hungarian partridges from central Europe may soon replace some of the game birds which are rapidly disappearing from the woods and fields on this side of the Atlantic. England is importing feathered game of this variety from Czechoslovakia to restock her moors and preserves, and the Mongolian pheasant has be- come so thoroughly acclimated in some of our Sastern States, and has been so carefully pro- tected that the birds are almost as common as were the native grouse at one time. The wholesale slaughter by pot-hunters of the bob-o’-link, in the guise of reed birds, on the marshes of the District and nearby States —known as the rice bird farther south—has led to the practical extermination of that cheery summer songster from all Northern meadows. Passenger pigeons which roosted literally by millions in western New York and Pennsylvania 60 years ago disappeared com- pletely in the early seventies, and not a single specimeh of the species has been seen for up- ward of 50 years. wenty-five years ago Pennsylvania avenue was patrolled night after night during ‘‘the season’’ by a _ score of peddlers carrying strings of ‘‘bob-whites,’’ which they offered for sale at a dollar a dozen, or even less when trade was poor. But.those days are gone, and the hunter who is fortunate enough to be invited for ‘‘a little shooting’”’ by a friend in southern Virginia, or North Carolina, is fortunate indeed if he succeeds in making a bag of a dozen birds during a week- end’s sport. The American Game Protective association is doing great work in educating the voters to the necessity of further game protecting laws, but they started in too late to save some species. The Worst Story I heard today was told to me by Lee Roberts. of Boston, Mass. This Lee is quite a card. When_he first started out he was a trick roper, and we used to practice to- Then he got in 4 gether, and he was good, too. with his Brother who is a big Wool Dealer in Boston and Lee started from the bottom right on up.. Now he can see a sheep running across a pasture and tell you. the grade, weight, and how much cotton Underwear it will pan out per sheep. He can take a hand- ful of wool and hold a Clinic over it a few seconds and diagnose it, and tell you how much lint to the square yard. Then Lee took up Aviation in the war, and when he come back he was one of our few heroes that got hfssame job and Girl back. So he is right back in the business mixing cotton with a little wool and peddling it as “All Wool.”’ , There hasn't been but one all woolen piece of goods in ten years, and John D. Rocke- feller got that. Well, Lee was around to see me when |] played in Boston the -other night. Well, Lee told mea story. I had it understood before he started it wasn't to be a wool or sheep story. It was about Boston. It happene right, there. You know Boston is supposed to be the most cultured and intellectual town outside Oolagah, Oklahoma. (Ever hear of Oolagah?) That’s where I was born, and that Oo is not a misprint; they belong there. It’s the only town in the world where you have to say Oh, Oh twice before you start in say- ing the rest of it. : a But it’s Bostog that Lee said was so cul- tured. Maybe ‘it was. He don’t show it much. A little Girl fell out of a window in Bos- ton. A kind-hearted old Lady rushed up and asked her, ‘“‘How did you fall?’’, - ‘The Little Girl from Boston replied, t mee “Ver- tically, tha’am.” : [Copy right,” 1026, the Meggnt Syndicutes Lae.) ’ . : e ‘ ' a. » fis ! ’ on edt ee.

It does not occur to you to become a member of the distressed family in order-to help. Bh 5 policy of assisting with- out joining appears, from a speech delivered recently in New York by the Hon.

As a creed defining the foreign policy of the country three paragraphs from the speech of the Secretary of State are | ‘sufficient: “T suppose all men will agree that the feature of our. policy which gives it its chief distinction and at the same time is least understood and appreciated by the rest of the family of nations is the fixed deter- mination to avoid participation in purely European political matters. This policy has its roots deeply em- bedded in our history and we have clung to it consistently ever since we came to be a nation. Its in- fluence is no less controlling today than when the farewell address of Washington was delivered. since 1798 been a party to any military alliance with a foreign power. * farewell address by To us the George Washington continues to be! a better guide for the United States than is the covenant of the League of Nations by Georges Clemenceau and the Hon. David Lloyd George. George Washington was thinking solely of the United States when he wrote the farewell ,address. We do not know what M: Clemenceau and Mr. Lloyd George were think- ing of when they were getting up the covenant of the League of Na- tions. Certainly, however, and quite naturally, they were. thinking more about the welfare of Europe than they were of the welfare of the United States. A Pugilist Chanticleer.

The best that American boxers attempt is a ‘season on the vaudeville stage or in the movies—surely an unconvinc- ing expression of the nobler ele- ments of culture. And Joop is also shrewd. Audiences at a prize fight are severely critical of highbrow stuff, but the one which he faced accepted the Singing Dutchman’s offerings. He did not vocalize be- fore the boat. He waited until he had put one good man on the ropes and then, looking sternly at tthe crowd, he let them ‘have it. All Young.

The educator must today be more than an educator. ° | It is no longer enough for him to be just a teacher of accumulated knowledge; he must be keenly alive to the character. Today the-street cuts squarely across the campus. The classroom opens into the market place. The slum is next door to the seminary. The modern world is the educator’s market; goods; his goods must bear some real relation to his market. The educator fails who sends his graduates into the modern world with the information and outlook of the medieval world. He must know this modern world and its baffling cross-currents or he cannot make his students at home in it. The doctor must today be more than a doctor. Curing sick individuals is only one part of his job. The modern doctor must know his city as few men know it. He must know his city and understand its problems and its other servants because the doctor will more and more be judged as failing in his function unless his practice is an intelligently related part of a city- wide cooperation with the sanitary engineer, the architect, the dietetic expert, the parent, the teacher, the whole municipal government.

Why Not a “Houser?” Worcester Telegram: ‘‘Congress- man” is rather a long word. Also, a United:States senator is in a sense a congressman. He is a member of’ Congress. ‘‘Representativey’ is also a long word, and it is the same word which we apply to members of many of the State legislatures.

Some have favored the League of Nations, which was overwhelmingly defeated in the Senate and in the election of President Harding in 1920, and now some favor the world court of international, justice, , which is regarded by some as an- other name for'‘the League of Na- tions. However, so far as either of them is concerned in bringing about world peace, I think one is about as good as the other.» To join either of them or both, I don’t think the United States could be anymore entangled than we are now from thexworld war and its re- sults.

THE WASHINGTON Post: WEDNESDAY. J JANU |ARY ‘6, I: ‘1920, New York Philharmonic ROLAND HAYES MAKES FIRST APPEARANCE HERE Negro Tenor Delights Audi- ence at Auditorium; Sings Spirituals. VARIED PROGRAM GIVEN Roland Hayes, negro tenor, who has won renown in Europe as well as America through his art, made his first appearance before a Wash- ington audience at the new audi- torium last night. He delighted his hearers by his artistry, his. dramatic expression and fine restraint in tone effects. His voice is a sweet and mellow tenor, of ample, but not robust volume, with clarity and golden tones in his high register, and a charming sotto voce. The songs on his program included numbers in German, Italian, English and French. The group of German lieder songs were particularly well done. The technical ability of the artist was well displayed in his opening number, an aria from Mozart. He gave his first encore after the sing- ing of ‘‘Le Reve’ (from Manon) by Massenet. A group of old Eng- lish songs also met with a cordial welcome. Throughout the evening the audience was most enthusiastic, and the applause at times amounted to an ovation. The genius of Hayes was best ex- hibited, in the opinion of many last night, in his notable singing of negro spirituals, into the interpre- tation of which he infused infinite pathos and the religious fervor and soul of his race. Yet the artistic balance was admirable. So many requests came to him for more Spirituals that he was obliged to limit his response to three—‘Swing Low, Sweet Chariot,’’ “Go Down, Moses,’ and “‘Crucifixion,’’ the last named of which he sang with tragic intensity and with a world of feel- ing in his tones. ~ MT. RAINIER PLANS BEAUTIFUL HOMES Campaign Is Begun by the Woman’s Civic League; To Have Contest. A campaign for the beautifica- tion of every home-in the town was launched by the Women’s Civic league of Mount Rainier at the monthly meeting last night in the Mount Rainier public school.

Petition Demands Yourtee’s Removal Special to The Washington Post. Hagerstown, Md., Jan. 5.—A pub- lic petition demanding removal from office of Juvenile Court Judge Leon R. Yourteegby Gov. Ritchie was circulated today following al- leged conduct by Judge Yourtee, who on Saturday night, it is al- leged, visited the offices where Miss Grace Baker, of whom he is e&uardian, is employed. Miss Baker said’she locked the doors, but, upon alleged threats of Judge Yourtee to break in, she finally allowed him to enter. A crowd collected and a call was sent to the police station, but Judge Yourtee was removed to his home in a private automobile. State’s Attorney Roulette today said charges would be preferred against Judge Yourtee. The judge today said his mind was a blank as to what took place Saturday night and that upon advice of physicians he would go to Baltimore for treat- ment.

Roy @’Arcy Secretly Married. Los Angeles, Jan. 5 (By A. P.).

The ceremony was beach se- cret until now. and an evening service at}; Players Delight Crowd| ns mem mee eee Schubert’s “Unfinished” Symphony and Strauss’ “Death and Transfiguration” Features of Mengelberg Program at National Theater. In a concert: whose beauty ranged from Schubert’s ‘“Un- finished’’ Symphony in B Minor to Strauss’ incomparable “‘Death and Transfiguration;” thé musicians of the Philharmonic Society of New York, under the inspired leadership of Willem Mengelberg,. the Dutch conductor, captivated a capacity audience at the New National the- ater yesterday afternoon. The con- cert was given under the manage- ment of the T. Arthur Smith Con- cert Bureau. After yesterday’s cOncert no Washingtonian can dispute the claim that Mengelberg is one of the outstanding conductors of the age. He brings to his work much mag- nétism, a wealth of sincerity, a scholarly quality, as well as an evident appreciation of musical values. Energetic and thrilling in the elaborate passages, yet he has a serenity and -repose about his method which heightens the charm of the orchestral numbers. . To watch him is a course in leadership. The program opened with thé “Unfinished” Symphony. While it has been heard before in Washing- ton, seldom has its presentation been equalled. In the haunting cello theme of the firat movéement there was grace and beauty. The noble measures of the sec- ond movement addéd to the keen enjoyment of the symphony and left the audience eager for moré. Widely differing in theme and school was the “Negro Rhapsody,” by Rubin Goldmark. Native themes of the race had been elabo- rated with much care into a beau- tiful production. In résponse to the applause, the leader pointed out the composer, who Was seated in the front of the house, and an ovation was given him, Which he acknowledged by rising and bows ing again and again. After the intermission the pro- gram was concluded by the “Over- ture to Leonore,” Beethoven, and the “Death and Transfiguration.” Mr. Mengelberg directed the Beethoven ovérture, which is an old favorite here, with his aceus- tomed gusto. To many presént the Strauss tone poem was the high point of theyprogram. Certainly vam Mr, Mengelberge’s leade 7 lost nothing of its acknow es besiity and the orchestral he ’ acts were memorable. Canada Will Assist At Economic Parley * Ottawa, Ont., Jan. 5 (By A. P.). Canada will be represented on the preparatory economic conference which is to be held in Geneva short- ly. After conversation with the do- minion government the council of the League of Nations has appoint- ed Prof. Adam Shortt, formerly of Queens university and more lately of Ottawa. Idleness Record Set in Denmark, Copenhagen, Jan. 5 (By A. P.). The gravity of Denmark’s trade de- pression is indicated by the unem- ployment figures announced today.

Star Becomes Blonde; London Critics Rage London, Jan. 5 (By A. P.).— Alice Delysia, star of the London revue stage, has called down the disapproval of the critics by @ pro- nounced métamorphosis. Formerly remarkable for the beauty of her dark hair, she has emerged from the hands of her beauty experts as a pronounced golden blonde. The chaage came when she re- placed her revue, “On With . the Dance,” by @ new version, “still Dancing,” with new songs—and @ new Delysia. One eritic, typical of the rest, complains that formerly she was of a type almost unique, but that she has lowered hérsélf into competition with hundreds of blondes, hand-made or natural, on the London stage. € Cardinal Aidan Gasquét, Near Death Rome, Jan. 5 (By A.

Although the Thomas Herbert Stock company presentation of “Go Wasy Mabel” opemed to @ very small house at Wardman Park theater last night there was enough ap- plause to make a filill house turn atréen with énvy. The play, by Charles George, is a human interest story with many complicating but amusing situa- tions. The work of Ruth Harrison, as Mabel, the stenographer, is niost creditable. Parker Fennelly had sufficiently recovered toe take the laurels as Téd Sparkd, the husband of dainty little Ruth Russell, Thomas Herbert ad E ward Dren: ton, the henfecked husbahd, proves that there is a chance for the man t6 boss his own home occasionally. Leona Roberts showed the right material as’ Mrs. Edward Dreriton. Robert L. Clear as George Mc- Donald, mixdd comedy and tragedy very well. Claire, proved a game sport in lend- ing her flance to figure in the clev- erly cofistructed plot of the play. William Clamentgon, as Bruce Dren- ton, livéd pia to the namé given him by Mabel, the sténd@grapher, that of being the cream of the Drenton family.

Tea grown in high altitudes is by far the best. It is so much better, that a Pekoe Souchong grown at a high elevation is superior to an Orange Pekoe grown in the lowlands. ) Ridgways Incorporated sell more high grade tea than any merchants in the world. These high grade teas come from the high mountain sides in India, Ceylon and Java. They offer, in ten cent packages, Ridgways Orange Label Tea. This tea combines the delicious fragrance of Orange Pekoe with the full rich flavor of the fully matured Pekoe leaf. It is superior in quality to any straight Orange Pekoe which can be bought at a popular price.

I was recently told by this gen- tleman that he was secretly en- gaged to another young lady (my mother and father do not know this) but much to his regret, for hé finds that a marriage between thém can never come to be, as there is.a difference in religion and he knows his parents will never con- sent to his changing over. Now, when I heard of this I consulted a few of my best friends as to» what théy thought best to do in my case and I was told to see no more of him and forget all that came to pass. They pointed out to me some of the défects in his character and many other things, but I can never see anything but the good of this man. Even though he is ten years my senior, I love him very much and will never think otherwise of him. My friends think it very easy to forget, but I know it is harder to do than say. Since I learned of his engage- ment I have been trying to follow the advice of my friends by seeing him no more. He has been pester- ing me with letters consoling me and arging me to see the bright. side of things. I have tried my hardest to refrain from answering, but I find it impossible. My father threatens to do some awful things if he finds I still go with this young man, but even at this point I cannot yield. I must see him for I find no other fellow that means so much to me as this one, and so I finally kept an appointment with him, much against my parents’ wishes. Miss McDonald, I know you will think me a very impertinent and dis- obedient young lady for my age, but I know you would do the same if you were treated as I am treated. Just like a step-child, I am treated and I am not even allowed to have girl friends call at the house or go to a theater, party or dance. When I think of my life of drudgery, I feel sorry for my smaller brothers and sisters, who yet have all this tc go through. Please help me solye my most distressing and. heart-wrecking problem as I am about at my wits’ end and feel’ myself drawing close to the pit of destruction and about to topple off. Help me, please! y HEARTBROKEN SAL. So! © He is ‘‘secretly’’ engaged to some one else, and if conditions were favorable it is the someone else he would marry. And he tells you this, and practically informs you that if he could have the other girl he would not consider you. And all this does not stir you to indignation, nor even touch your pride! Also—he is making love to you, while the other girl believes him. engaged to her—and would not for a moment doubt his fidelity! My dear, what first class 1925 model of ‘‘sheik’’ is this? And re- gardless of nationality do you think a man of your father’s age could fail to see in this chap the characteristics that make it pos- sible for him to coolly make love to two girls at once, without the least compunction? Will you take my word for if, dear, that this is the. type of man who marries two women at once! The sense of right and wrong is defective. Such a man should never marry. Instead invariably he marries just as often as he can.

BLWAYS a rebel, the great A French philosopher, Francis Marie Arouet, known as Vol- tairé, applied his independent rules to matters of love as well. At 19 he told his father. that henceforth the pen would. provide him with a living. Arouet senior begged to differ with him and fail- ing to win result by persuasive methods, sent him off to The Hague as a diplomatic attache. , No sooner did he arrive in the Holland capital than he cast fasci- nated eyes upon Mlle. Dunoyer. Madenioiselle was very pretty, but she was the daughter of a lady who , practiced a very unethical profes- * sion; in fact the girl bore a nick- name illustrative of the family call- ing. Voltaire, however, was heed- less and became her lover. ‘The French Ambassador was larmed at this state of affairs and pplied immediate remedial meas- 4” 6ures, the man feature of which was » imprisonment of the gay cavalier. But Voltaire. was his equal. He broke out of jail and ran away with Mile. Dunoyer. From then on he tried to get his inamorita into Paris but was unable to, owing to his father’s opposition, and finally, after two years of diligent effort, the romance cooled sufficiently for ‘Arouet senior to claim a victory. The young lady married a count, and Voltaire went on his way to fame. The following, a souvenir of his ycuthful affair, was written by Vol- taire to the girl just before he broke out of jail in The Hague: ‘“‘l am here as the king's prisoner.

The students from the ‘truly rural communities lead in pleurisy, pneumonia, smallpox and tubercu- losis. They had the low record— that is, the best record—for chick- en pox, diphtheria, typhoid fever, and whooping cough. The people from the villages—50 to 1,000 inhabitants—had the high (or worst) record for chicken pox, measles, mumps,’ typhoid and whooping cough. They were low for pneumonia, tuberculasis and chorea. _ The towns were high for scarlet fever and rheumatism. They were low for pleurisy. The small cities—5,000 to 50,- 000-——had the high record for diph- theria; they ranked second for measles, “mumps, chicken pox, chorea and typhoid fever. They were low in scarlet fever. The cities. with more than 50,- 000 inhabitants were highest in nothing except chorea. They were lowest in measles, ‘mumps and smallpox.

The teaching of the study is if : Landing The Punch By N. BREWSTER MORSE. A N the Harlem Athletic club ] Terry Thompson was known to have the punch, but he never seemed to be able to land it. All the training in the world and every- thing his trainers had to say, seem- ed to be of no benefit to him what- ever. Terry fought regularly in the amateur boxing bouts and Terry’always took a terrific beating. This fact did not seem to discourage him the least. He fought because he liked to fight. Both men couldn’t win. It was no disgrace to lose if he lost a fair fight. When he was not working and not fighting or training to fight in the club. Terry was very much oc- cupied in telling a certain Miss +Mary McGlyn just what a nice girl he knew she was., In this task he received very little encouragement from the lady herself. Not that she did not agree with him. It was simply that in his attempt to be a Valentino, Terry was no more adapted to landing the proper punch than he was in boxing. Still he kept right on trying. ‘‘Try’’ was Terry’s middl? name. When the date of the next ama- teur bouts arrived, Terry discovered that he had matched against a new- comer. This was, of course, as it should have been for the plain and simple fact that most of the other boxing members had-defeated Terry. However, Terry had a great desire to triumph over his new opponent as soon as he saw him. Bill Garry was the man’s name and there was something about him that Terry disliked. They stepped into the ring, the gong rang and the battle was on. As usual, Terry took a bad beat- ing. From his corner, the trainer watched and cursed between his teeth. ‘‘Terry’s got the punch,” the trainer kept saying to himself. ‘‘He’s got it! He’s got it! Lord, if he only cotdd land it!”’ In the third round, poor Terry went down for the count-out. The crowd jeered as usual and our fallen hero was carried to his corner. As the sponge revived him, he glanced at the victor. The fact that he had been beaten was nothing unusual, but the fact that the other man was tlaughing at him, made _ Terry’s blood boil. Some day they would meet again. Terry promised. him- self that the next time he would try to do better. Time passed as time will, and one Sunday afternoon Mr. Thompson and Miss McGlyn went out for a walk. Terry was still trying to im- press Mary with the fact that he thought she was the nicest girl in the world and Mary was still stub- bornly refusing to be impressed. They walked quite a distance, and were passing the Athletic club cor- ner at dusk. A group of the mem- bers happened to be standing on the corner and among them was Mr. Bill Garry. Mr. Garry saw Terry and the lady and passed a remark. The remark had something to do with Terry’s ability as a fighter anda was made in such a way that everyone within the next six blocks could hear it, Obviously, it had been purposely passed to embarass Mr. Thompson while in the company of his fair companion. . Terry asked Mary to wait a few moments there by the curb and walked directly to Mr. Garry. In less time than it takes to tell it, the battle was on. Mr. Garry, of course, was quite sure of his ground. Past experi- ence told him that he could handle Mr. Thompsor and he rather relish- you want the best chance to avoid contagion, live in a large city under a good health department; if that is impossible, go to the farm. If you are willing to take chances village or small city, or a town where there is neither protection by nature nor by a health department. with your children, try living in a}. — ed the idea. After all, 1t must be remembered that Mary was an un- usually pretty girl. In his calou. lations, Mr. Garry neglected to weigh the fact that in this encounter Mr. Thompson was mad. For a time it looked as though Terry was in for his usual beating. The onlookers cheered Mr. Garry on to finish him and Mary was very much frightened as she watched it all. Now, that Terry was in imme- diate danger: of being seriously hurt, she realized for the first time how much she really care abotit him. He might even be killed. She wondered if she should run and try|. | UNCLE RAY’S CORNER > The Lighthouse of Alexandria to find a policeman. Terry fowght on and on and, at last, the unexpected thing happen- ed. Before Mr. Garry realized, be- fore Mary or the boys, or even be- fore he realized it himself, he land- ed his punch. His opponent crum- pled to the side-walk in a heap and ye one considerately counted him out. “Oh, Terry, that was wonderful!” Mary threw her arms about him and kissed him. “I never knew you were so big and strong. Take me home now, please, and promise mé you will never fight again. It’s dreadfully dangerous. If he had hurt you, I’d have killed him. I just know I would!” The difference between success and failure is a very thin line. If you try to do a thing and don’t do it, you’re out of luck. If you do succeed you win the prize and the public acclaim in the bargain. At the wedding of Mr. Terry Thompson and Miss Mary McGlyn, the truth of the old adage that ‘‘to the victor belongs the spoils’’ was definitely proven. As the old trainer put it, it teok him a long time to do it, but when Terry did land his punch, it cer- tainly was a wow! Copyright, 1926.) [JUST FOLKS __._._ By EDGAR A. GUEST THE JOY OF THE FUTURE.

Great bonfires were kept alive at the top of this building, and their rays spread far over the sea. The fame of the lighthouse spread, and it was numbered as one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The Ro- man writer Pliny leaves. this. ac- count: “The tower was built by the King of Egypt (Ptolemy the Second). The cost was 800 talents. The ob- ject is to warn ships away from the nearby shoals, and to point out the ‘}entrance to the harbor.’’ Pliny lived about 300: years after the lighthouse was set up. In pres- ent: money, 800 talents would amount to about $1,000,000. That was a huge sum to be spent on a building in ancient times. Six centuries after Pliny lived the Arabs won power over Egypt. They kept the fire burning in the lighthouse. Troubles came about, however, between the Arabs and the Christians. The Christian rul- er of Constantinople felt that the lighthouse was_a help to the enemy, and sent a spy to Egypt to bring about its ruin. . According to the story left to us, the spy told the Arab ruler that treasure had been buried under the famous lighthouse. The Caliph be- lieved him, and ordered that the building be torn down. He was later sorry that he had given the of the de- lighthouse had been which was one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world, stroyed.

Bashara is confident that he can make a much better showing Greb than did Clark. Greb made a big middleweigh:* signified his the win- Bashara main at- Capital the Ar- hit with ing. Any boy like Bashara or who could stay with him for eight or ten rounds would give local fans a good evening’s entertainment. his showing with Paul G Berlenbach, Jimmy Slat- tery, &c., is figured to have the best chance at this match, but Bashara is reported to have im- proved considerably under the skillful guidance of one of Phil- adelphia’s best managers ILL, on the strength of Gill, who is booked for a return bout with Jimmy Slatterly in De- troit the week following his ap- pearance here, is working out daily in his Baltimore gymnasium and the Norfolk battler is working out with Tommy Louchran in Philadel- phia. This is the start of the win- ter’s campaign for both of the mid- dleweights and they both promise to be in the pink of condition. Three-Cornered Trade Involving Pair of Nats Denied by Everybody RESIDENT CLARK GRIFFITH last night took time off from packing up for his Florida trip, on which he starts this morn- ing, to deny the latest effort of the “hot stove league,” which has the Nats, Browns and Yanks figuring in a three-cornered trade, Rumor says that Pitcher Tom Zachary and Infielder Spencer Adams are to go to New York for Pitcher Waite Hoyt, Huggins planning to trade them, and possibly Aaron Ward, for Marty McManus. “There’s nothing to it at all,” said Griffith, ‘‘and I ought to know if anything like that is in the wind.” Col.

C Young Jake Schaefer was vir- tually assured recovery of his recently-lost world’s championship at 18.2 balk line billiards tonight, in the second block of his contest with Edouard Horemans, the Belgian titleholder; he took a lead of 1,000 to 572. In the sec- ond 500-point block of their 1,500- | point match, he scored 500 to Hore- | man’s 197. Schaefer displayed remarkable mastery over the balls tonight, required only four. innings, made his average 125. Horemans played good billiards, too, having an average of 65 2-3 HE result of tonight’s block never was in doubt from the opening inning, when Schaefer added 148 to an unfinished run of 22 last night. Horemans, in his first turn at the table, seemed to suffer from the nervousness evidenced last might, but in the only other two tries that he got, he got an 89 and a 91.

REPORT MUST HAVE APPROVAL BY BALLOU Textbooks Also Will Be Studied; Time Will Be An- - other Element in Survey. Revision of the public school curriculum, contemplated by pub- lic school officers, will be assigned to special committees to be ap- pointed within the next few days by Robert L. Haycock, assistant super- intendent of schools in charge of elementary schools. Some time will be spent in study- ing the existing courses of studies before the committee will make its report, which will be subject to approval by Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superintendent of schools, and by the board of education. No startling changes are expect- ed, Dr. Ballou said yesterday. The greater emphasis probably.will be laid on a rearrangement of studies and a revaluation of them with a view to determining what greater or less amount of time wil be given to each study, he said. Several proposals will be laid be- fore the revision committee by Dr. Ballou and his assistant superin- tendents, but he refused to disclose what his recommendations will be. He emphasized, however, that he did not intend to impose his will on the committee, but intended rather to direct its attention to the study of questions which it will be asked to answer. Textbooks will be studied but, school officers said, there has been no issue raised in connection with any of them as was the case with regard to Muzzey’s history, about which there was.so much discus- sion a year ago. U. S. Narcissus Bulb Culture Held Possible -_———_—_ That narcissus bulbs can be suc- cessfully grown in different parts of the United States was.shown by Dr. David Griffiths, horticulturist, bureau of plant industry, Depart- ment of Agriculture, who was the principal speaker at the meeting of the Botanical society at the Cosmos club last night. Dr. Griffiths’ talk on “Narcissus Culture in the. United States,’’ was accompanied _by slides. C. R. Ball,. A. 8. Hitchcock and H. A. Edson spoke on different phases of the botanical work pre- sented at the meeting of the Amer- ican Association for the Advance- ment of Science held recently at Kansas City. Woman Goes on Trial On Charge of Murder Virginia M. Burke, colored, was placed on trial yesterday before Justice Stafford in criminal court No. 2 on a charge of first degree murder in connection with the shooting of Joseph A. Young, also colored, on February 27 last on Bladensburg road northeast. This is the first murder case of the new year. The jurors were se- lected in record time—only about five minutes being needed to. pick the twelve men, none of whom had any conscientious scruples against capital punishment. 6 Die of Pneumonia; 14 New Cases in Day Pneumonia is on the increase. Fourteen new cases and six deaths were reported yesterday to the Dis- trict health department. These brought the totals up to 29 new cases and 10 deaths thus far in 1926 and doubled the aver- age announced Monday as one death a day.

Dick, wife of Charles Dick, former senator from Ohio. The latter has been in active charge of the hotel business almost ever since his failure to be reelected. According to the declaration pre- sented by Attorneys Bates Warren, W. H. Sholes and Edgar M. Will- iams, the corporation rented the property on the corner and at 1407 June 1, 1924, to August 31, 1925, and thereafter leased these proper- ties at the rate of $5,000 a month, the increase being accounted for by improvements made in the interior by Mrs. Dick. BAD FIRE APPARATUS CHARGED IN SOUTHEAST J. T. Crouch Cites Engine Which Broke Down on way to olazes. gi WASHINGTON POST: WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 6, 1926. |GRAPHIC REVIEW OF LOCAL EVENTS| Mrs. TO SEER ne OF FENNING:! John T. Crouch, president of the Southeast Business Men’s associa- tion, yesterday charged that the Southeast is being made a “‘dump- ing ground for bad fire apparatus.”’ Mr. Crouch owns a barber shop at the corner of Eighth and D streets southeast, across the street from No. 7 truck company. The other morning when the truck re- sponded to the three-alarm fire on East Capitol street, it stalled in front of the barber shop and was delayed five minutes. “Last week,’’ Mr. Crouch said, “this truck broke down on Penn- sylvania avenue while responding to a fire and then again broke down on the Anacostia bridge and had to be towed back to the engine house.” Altogether the truck has been out of order five or six times within the past week, he says. Mr, Crouch testified that on several oc- casions to his own knowledge the truck was unable to leave the en- gine house. ‘“Tt’s not only this truck but none of the fire apparatus this side of the river in the Southeast is any good,” he asserted. The. only new piece of apparatus in this section is a pumping engine at No. 18, Ninth and K &treets southeast. No. 8 on North Carolina avenue between Sixth and Seventh streets, is the only other engine house in the southeast on the city side of the river, making a total of but three engine houses. Protest against this condition is to be made by the Southeast Busi- ness Men’s association to Commis- sioner Fenning.

UNDERRILL OFFERS BILL TO CURB POLIGEWOMEN Power to Detain Children Would Be Given to Court Alone. ACTION FOLLOWS CHARGE Charges by Judge Kathryn Sel- lers of the juvenile court that per- sons were being held illegally at the house of detention found quick re- sponse in the House yesterday when Representative Underhill, of Massachusetts, introduced a Dill designed to curb the activities of Lieut. Mina C. Van Winkle’s wom- an’s bureau. Mr. Underhill, who is a member of the House’ district committee, made known that he believed the existing law fully defined the juris- diction of the juvenile court, but he introduced his bill in order to remove all doubt. It would give the court full and lone jurisdiction over delinquent children under 17 years of age and would expressly prohibit any commitments of this class to the house of detention except by the court. Under its terms Lieut. Van Winkle’s operatives would be allowed to hold prisoners without formal commitment only until court convened. The woman’s bureau at present arrests girls and boys and holds them of its own accord. Judge Sellers Monday formally complained to the District commis- sioners charging that eight per- sons under 17 years of age, seven of them girls, were then being held illegally. Mrs. Van Winkle, commenting on these charges, said the letter was addressed to the commissioners and she ‘did not want to answer. their mail for them.,’’ Charges that the woman’s bu- reau of the police department holds minors in custody in the House of Detention without court commitment, in violation of the law, contained in Judge Kathryn Sellers’ letter to the District com- missioners, were referred yester- day by the board to Commissioner Frederick A. Fenning, who had charge of police administration. Mr. Fenning said he had not read Judge Sellers’ letter, but that he would do so promptly and call Lieut. Mina Van Winkle, com- manding officer of the woman's bureau, in for discussion of the ac- cusations, probably today. GALLINGER PATIENTS GET RADIO EQUIPMENT Patients Enjoy Hearing “Loud Speakers;” $40,000 Hos- pital Fund Made Possible. Gallinger hospital is now receiv- ing its allotment of radio equip- ment provided’ for in the $40,000 hospital radio fund, a campaign for which was launched last spring by Leroy Mark, local insurance man. Six loud speakers were installed in the hospital just before the holidays. Four were placed in sick wards, one in the receiving ward, and one in the office of Maj. E. W. Patterson, superin- tendent. They have proved a happy addi- tion, and, Maj. Patterson .says, undoubtedly an excellent tonic for the patients. Their effect on the patients is almost medicinal, he declares, and their place in the wards is considered pathological as well as entertaining. Three more loud speakers will be installed in a short time. These will go in the nurses’ home, the doctors’ home, and the lecture hall of the administration building. KIRBY GETS COMMISSION.

COMMISSIONERS ASK GROUP TO STUDY IDEA House Bill for Mothers’ Memorial Site to Be Discussed. A plan for the establishment of permanent flagpoles at given inter- vals along the principal downtown streets of Washington will be acted’- upon by the Fine Arts commission at its meeting tomorrow. The idea, said to have originated with the American Legion of the District, has been referred to the commission by the District com- missioners for recommendation. Whatever action the commission takes is expected to be the action of the District commission, however, The legion plan calls for the es- tablishment of metal flagpoles 25 feet apart on prominent streets of the city, supposedly downtown, They would be 12 feet high and seven- eighths of an inch in diameter. They would be placed in sockets set 1 foot back from the curb- stone. Approval Not Expected. Whenever there wonld be a parade or public demonstration of a sort meriting decorations these flagpoles, regular in interval, size and design would be utilized by flying from them flags 8 by 5 feet in dimensions. The general effect, according to the legion, would be an easy and uniform decoration. It is not expected that this plan will be indorsed by the fine arts commission as it already has ex- pressed itself as to this form of decoration. When the new high electri¢e light posts were being designed for various avenues here, the com- mission told the commissioners that they should be equipped with cross arms from which flags could be flown at times of public cele- brations. It is the plan carried out in Paris with great effect. At the same time the commission will act upon the House resolution calling for the setting aside of a suitable site for a building to be erected here by the Mothers Me- morial Foundation. ‘‘The site for this beautiful and lofty purpose,” the resolution says, ‘‘shall not be less than 1,600 feet in circumfer- ence and with open space around it suitable for a monumental build- ing which will fill a practical pur- pose while at the same time stand as a temple consecrated to the triumph of motherhood.” Chamber Invites Officials to Dinner Elaborate preparations are being made for the annual midwinter din- ner of the Washington Chamber of Commerce, which will be held at the Willard hotel January 27.
