CENTS. — RESIGNATIONS ASKED IN ADVANCE, NORRIS ALLEGES IN SENATE Charges President With Requiring Them of Lewis and Haney. TARIFF COMMISSION INQUIRY DEMANDED Asserts Executive Used Office to Influence Procedure and sapaseatien By JOHN EDWIN NEVIN. Asserting that all indications pointed to the fact that in making certain appointments to office President Coolidge has insisted on being given written resignations before signing commissions, Sena- tor George W. Norris, Republican, Nebraska, yesterday cited two cases to prove the contention. He also asked that the Senate order an in- vestigation of the tariff commission and the manner “in which the President has misconstrued not alone the letter but the spirit of the law and has used his high of- fice to influence its procedure and decisions.”’ Senator Norris recited what he declared was the inside history in connection with the recess appoint- ment of David J. Lewis as a mem- ber of the tariff commission during the last presidential campaign, say- ing Lewis had refused the Presi- dent’s personal request to write his resignation in advance. He also referred to similar circumstances in connection with the recess appoint- ment of B. E. Haney, of Oregon, to the United States Shipping Board, and continued: ‘Is this a common thing in this administration ? “David Lewis declined to sign and told the President to tear up his commission. This was not done, but he was not reappointed after the campaign ended. ° Urges Congressional Inquiry. “Congress must investigate this. I wonder how many resignations the President is carrying around in his pocket exacted under lines such as these which were attempted in Mr. Lewis’ case? “This‘seemingly is a direct effort to influence appointments. I will show at a later date that the Presi- dent, under his peculiar effort to control independent governmental commissions, is violating the law of the land. ‘Are there any judges now sitting on the bench who have signed resig- nations as the price of their ap- pointment?’”’ While Senator Norris was talk- ing, Senator Robert M. La Follette, jr., was called to the chair to pre- side for the first time over the de- liberations of the Senate. In his opening remarks the Ne- braska senator said he had no prejudice against President Cool- idge and he wished it understood that he was not charging him with prejudice or malice, He then read a recent article on the President published by Colliers and written by William Allen White. Coal Situation Interjected. While Senator Norris was talking, Senator Wheeler (Democrat), of Montana, caused a laugh when he interrupted, apparently believing that the anthracite coal] situation still was a topic for discussion; to ask: ‘*‘Doesn’t the senator believe that if the President should appeal to his old friend, Dwight L. Morrow, of Morgan & Co., he could have this coal-strike settled over night?” Senator Norris, a trifle flustered, replied that he could not answer that question, and anyway he was discussing the tari commission. He then continued with his discus- sion of that body. He recalled that in 1924 the commission was inves- tigating the sugar situation and that it was expected to recommena that the duty of sugar be lowered. “T believe,” continued Senator Norris, ‘‘that the President used the great power of his office with the Federal tariff commission for the purpose of delaying a report to that effect. There was a campaign on and the President was a candidate. One member of the commission was David J. Lewis, of Maryland, a man of the highest honor and of unlim- ited industry. He wanted to make an immediate report. “The President obtained rea) political benefit through appointing CONTINUED ON FOURTH PAGE. “FL RIDA SPECIAL,” ATLANTIC Oast ne, De Luxe train (no extra re).

But neither the strange ocean nor the stranger land he discovered this to be made him homesick, or fretful, or anything but calm. Joe bade his parents farewell, perhaps, forever, on January 2. Then, amidst the tears and heart- aches of farewell, he was outfitted with a small satchel, in which was placed his clothes. He was wrapped with a mother’s care, and left with all that a mother could do to make him comfortable and to insure his safety. That was proved when at Union Station last night he exhib- ited six small sweaters beneath his heavy black coat.

PASSAGE PREDICTED EARLY IN FEBRUARY Surtax Rates Are Reduced, Inheritance Levy Repealed in New Measure. (By the Associated Press.) Senate Republicans and Demo- crats on the finance committee com- promised their differences on tax reduction yesterday and ordered by unanimous vote a report of the House revenue bill to the Senate with considerable modifications. The compromise, which involved principally further reductions in the surtax rates and repeal of the inheritance tax, increased the total reduction provided by the House measure for, this year from $330,- 000,000 to $360,000,000 and cleared the way for early passage of the bill by the Senate. Chairman Smoot said he would report the measure to the Senate on Tuesday but would hold up its con- sideration for a couple of days, at if the cloture rule was in- voked to permit an early vote on the world court, Early Passage Predicted. Spokesmen of the two parties in the Senate expressed satisfaction with the compromise and declared a final vote on the bill by the Senate early in February was almost cer- tain. The agreement came suddenly and the committee concluded its consideration of the bill in a cordial spirit. Ending its wofk within two weeks after the bill was first taken up, the committee established a new record in the consideration of revé- nue legislation. The following changes in the House bill were voted yesterday: Further reduction on surtax rates applying on incomes between $26,- 000 and $100,000. Repeal of the inheritance tax, Restoration of the present alcohol levies which the House had voted to cut in half. Agreement on House action tor repealing the gift tax. $12,700,000 Surtax Loss. The increased reductions in the surtax rates would involve an ad- ditional estimated loss of $12,700,- 000 from that source this year. Sen- ator Simmons, of North Carolina, ranking Democrat on the committee, had presented: a program for the minority members calling for ad- ditional reductions jin these rates amounting to $44,000,000.

Rochester, N. Y., Jan. 16 (By A. P.).—Elmore L. Reynolds, known as the “lone blonde bandit’ and wanted in a score of cities for rob- beries and burglaries, was sen- tenced to fifteen years in prison by County Judge Gillette here today. Reynolds pleaded guilty to first- degree larceny and assault in the holdup and robbery of‘ a‘ taxicab driver here more than a month ago. He took the sentence calmly, say- ing, “Thank you, suh.”’ ‘Reynolds, 28 years old, said he was born in Milwaukee, is married, Albuquerque, N. Mex. When ar- rested here he was wanted for breaking out of jail at Wichita, Kans., and as soon as his arrest became :known generally the Roch- ester police received scores of re- quests that he be held for the au- thorities of various cities. _He told police that before being placed in jail at Wichita, he had served sen- tences in prison camps of Florida and California, In the 37 days between the time he left the Wichita jail and his ar- rest here, he said, he shot two men ups in cities between St. Louis, Mo., and Washington, D.

SOUGHT TO COACH HIM Special to The Washington Post. Chicago, Jan.. 16,—-Superiority of Mrs. Florence W. Allen over her husband, Asa W. Allen, wealthy advertising agent, in all games ranging from chess to golf finally broke up their marriage, according to Mrs. Allen’s testimony today be. fore Superior Judge Joseph Sabath. For example: Mr. and Mrs. Allen played a game of golf at a North Side course last summer. Mrs. Allen outfrove her husband. She made beautiful approaches and sank long putts. At the tenth hole, she turned and remarked sweetly: “That makes me five up, dear. Don’t you think if you changed your stance ie: Whereupon, Mrs. Allen Judge Sabath tearfully, Mr. struck her several times. Again Mrs. Allen told of. an in- stance when she and her husband were stopping at the Tutwiler hotel in Birmingham, Ala. They were playing a game of chess and Mrs. Allen, by a few brilliant moves, put her opponent’s king in check. “He upset the chess board. He swore terribly, and he gave me a black eye,”’ she testified. There was the bridge game shortly afte their marriage in 1923. Mrs. Allen had merely at- tempted to show her husband where he erred in a few plays. The scene which followed was frightening she said, and she was bruised by her husband's blows. Judge Sabath indicated he would grant her a divorce. Chamorro Takes Over N icaragua Presidency told Allen San Juan Del Sur, Nicaragua, Jan. 16 (By A. P.).—The local gov- ernor is informed that Gen. Emili- liano Chamorro today assumed the presidency of Nicaragua, succeed- ing the resigned chief executive, Carlos Solorzano. Officials in Washington, com- menting Thursday on the resigna- tion of Senor Solorzano, said that if Gen. Chamorro took the office. American Minister Eberhardt would withdraw formal recognition of the Nicaraguan government by the United States, in conformity with the American policy not to accord recognition to Central American governments assuming power by unconstitutional means. The Mipn- ister, however, it was stated, would remain at his post to afford protec- tion to Americans. Mild Alaska Winter . Fools Strawberries Seward, diane, Jan. 16 (By A.

Pershing is returning to the United States without much hope that his successor, Maj. Gen. Lassi- ter, due here in a few days, will soon see affairs so shape them- selves that a plebiscite can be car- ried out in Tacna and Arica. He is said to feel that failure can be the only result, unless there is decided change in the conduct of the Chil- ean residents of this territory, to bring about which a restraining in- fluence by the representatives of their government seems necessary. President Coolidge’s denial of Chile’s appeal leaves the situation just as it was a month ago when the Chileans, before appealing, frankly sought to end the plebiscite by withdrdwing from the plebiscite commission. Rulings laid down by Gen. Pershing, to which there was such a vehement objection on the part of the Chilean representatives, will stand. Will Not Mince Words. The correspondent of the Asso- ‘ciated Press came here with Gen. | Pershing and since last August has | been observing the whole course of the proceedings. .The American commissioner has from the first spoken reservedly of conditions, de- nying comment for publication even to verbal attack. Only once has he given the correspondents permis- rion to express his views. This oc- casion was to announce his objec- tions to the participation of unoffi- cial Americans on either side of the contest. It is understood, however, by those familiar with the general’s views, that the whole story of the difficulties he has encountered with the Chileans will be given in the utmost detail to his successor. It is believed he will not mince words in this recital, which it forecast will run very much as follows: He will ascribe to the Chileans the establishment of a reign of terror; he will set forth to Gen. Lassiter his conviction that the Chileans have not sought to pro- mote conditions that would create a chance.for a fair decision at the polls, but to the contrary. He will tell his successor that in his opinion the Chileans have given no proof of a wish fully to correct the un- desirable conditions which their method of administering the local government has made possible. Retire. Gen. Pershing will explain that unless the hostile acts against the Peruvians May will withdraw from the plebiscite, thus in any case putting an end to any attempt to solve the Tacna and Arica problem by the plebisci- tary method. As far as members of the Ameri- can delegation are concerned, it is understood he feels that the only plebiscite in which they can partici- pate must be able to std#d the clos- est scrutiny of justice to both sides and that this is not possible without CONTINUED ON FOURTH PAGE.

Special to The Washington Post. New York, Jan.° 16.—Seemingly greatly agitated, and refusing to discuss reports of a last minute tiff with his temperamental opera singer wife, Harold F. McCormick, Chicago harvester magnate, who planned to sail for Europe today with Ganna Walska, hurriedly left the French liner Paris a minutes before the ship sailed to- day. The former head of the Interna- tional Harvester Co. jumped into a taxicab at the pier, into which his baggage was hurriedly piled, and drove away, Just what caused him could not be ascertained. The rumor that he and Ganna, who sailed without him for a con- cert tour abroad, had a spat, was circulated among the crowd on the pier waving to departing friends. Just before the gangplank was lifted the opera singer, asked the reason ‘for her husband’s sudden departure, would say only ‘“‘Oh, he will follow me—probably next week.’’ There was nothing to indicate a break between the couple as they talked to reporters in the singer’s few | to cancel his plans and quit the ship | cabin a short time previous to Mc- Cormick’s sudden quitting the ship. They smilingly acquiesced ,to the re- quest of photographers and for the | first time posed together on ship- board. McCormick, who had _ en- gaged a state room adjoining the one occupied by Ganna, stated he was accompanying her abroad, where he said she would prove to music lov- ers that she could really sing. His face lit up with a smile and he nodded, as she said: “IT don’t care what you newspaper men say about mé any more. I will neither confirm nor deny anything you ask me. I believe I am a singer and I am confident I will yet triumph. On my return to America I will appear in ‘Madem Butterfly.’ And I am writing a book of my life that will be interesting. It will be the truth and many persons will not like it.’ | McCormick added that “profes- sional knockers” were not as bad as amateurs, because people who did not know music were prone to be- lieve the worst.

Terry Druggan and Frankie Lake, wealthy beer runners and storm ing of Harry Schneider, 68 old, ‘‘Fagin’’ of the once notorious “Valley gang,’’ this morning. Ordeés were also out to round up other for- mer members of the “Valley gang,”’ once“ted by the young beer barons. The police profess to see a distant connection between the shooting of Schneider and the killing of “Big Steve’’ Wisniewski in 1921. Schneider is alleged to have in- formed the authorities last summer that Wisniewski was killed at the instigation of Druggan and Lake, and later to have been instrumental in starting the investigation of charges of bribery by Lake and Druggan of officials of the county jail, where they were held on a liquor violation charge. Druggan and Lake were last re- ported in Florida, but police say they have information that they were in Chicago as late as last night. Schneider’s bullet-riddled body was found on the front porch of his home this morning. After Schneider’s arrest in con- nection with the killing of ‘Big Steve’’ Wisniewiski, said to have been his pupil, a warrant charging Lake with parcicipation in the slay- ing was issued In attempting to serve it in the county jail Deputy Sheriffs found that Lake had been released before the expiration of his sentence.

Trunk, Auctioned, Denver, Colo., Jan. 16 (By P.).—Unsuccessful in their search through Denver for two well- dressed women, who, police believe, may know the hiding place of the holdup gang that robbed the United States mint here of $200,000 in 1922, authorities tonight turned their efforts toward an extensive check-up of all Colorado and Wyo- ming cities. Police began their search after they learned that a trunk the two women purchased at a police auc- tion yesterday contained three large diamonds. The trunks was confis- cated along with other belongings of Nicholas Trainor, one of the ban- dits who was slain by mint guards.

This is a new record for junior marksmen. Whether he also broke the world’s record of 1,785 consecutive bullseyes in 11 hours has not been finally determined. The rifle club officials ruled that he had fired 3,- 000 consecutive shots into bullseye circle of the target. But in examining his targets late today Moore, himself, questioned one tar- get registered shortly after he fired his 1600th shot. The target will be sent to national officials for a rul- ing.

COSDEN TO RETIRE, FOLLOWING LOSSES Going to Florida, Says New York Paper. New York, Jan. 16 (By A. P.).— The New York Times tomorrow will say that Joshua S. Cosden will close his spectacular career in Wall street and retire to Florida to reside as soon as the details of the sale of his estate on Long Island to Vin- cent Astor are completed. The sale is described as the last of a series of liquidations which have been un- der way for several months.

VOTE BEFORE. TAX BILL AGREEABLE 10 SMOOT Moses Offers Four Reserva- tions He Holds Nations Will Accept. A vote on the world court at an early date under the spur of cloture suddenly became a possibility at the Senate yesterday. Opponents of the world court were admittedly more pessimistic last night than they have been since the fight began. World court Opponents learned late in the day that Senator Smoot had been quoted as saying that he was willing to have cloture applied before the tax bill was taken up. It was expected that the finance com- mittee would report the tax bill Tuesday. This meant to world court opponents that its advocates were getting ready to bring in a petition for cloture signed by 16 members tomorrow. Under the rules the vote on the resolution would come up automatically on Wednesday. Senators leading the fight against the world court were: fearful last night that if an attempt to force cloture is made in the Senate at, this time it will be found that a sufficient number of senators are pledged to the world court to in- sure it adoption. Tide Against Court Rising. This change in the situation came | at a moment when senators opposed | to the world court believed that the [rising tide of opposition to it im-’ (the country would be sufficient to |defeat American adhesion if a yote ‘could be postponed until the country had an opportunity to study the question and bring to bear upon thé > Senate the outside pressure of its opposition to the world court on the ground of its close relationship. to and identity with the League of Nations. Republican senators favorable to the world court who are coming up for election this year have been | warned of the serious consequences to themselves in the event of a favorable vote on the world court in the Senate. Opponents of the court were un- decided last night what steps te pursue to prevent the forcing of the cloture issue at this time. Challenge by Moses. No matter what reservations the Senate should attach to the en- trance of the United States into the world court, they will be accepted by the other nations now parties te that tribunal, in the opinion of Sen- ator George HH. Moses (Republi- can), of New Hampshire. He is s0 convinced of that fact, he told the Senate vesterday, that he _ chal- lenged the State Department to make inquiries abroad to determine it ang suggested stringent reserva- tions of his own which he argued would be agreed to. The reason, according to the New Hampshire senator, is obvious. The various European powers are deter- mined finally ‘‘to enmesh” the United States in the League of Na- tions and ‘‘the statesmen of the Old World look upon our adherence to this court as a step, and a long step, toward membership in the league.” Senator Moses delivered a lengthy _ prepared address on the subject of the court, reviewing its creation and the manner in which it oper- ates. Incidentally, he took occasion to express his views on cloture and Senate rule amendment and to place himself on record as _ not seeking to delay a vote. His Convictions Deep. “Though differing with you, Mr. President, with.regard to the con- duct of debtae in this chamber, I am not an offender who has sought to exercise license under | rules which guarantee liberty,’’ he said. ‘“‘When this vote is taken I shall ‘vote my convictions; and my con- victions upon the entire subject of our foreign relations are deep and sincere and abiding, to the extent | that no price is too great to pay tor aa standing by them. eM “T will not cast my vote undae® ; any circumstances for any measure ~ which in any degree makes, oF tends to make. the United States a° party to the odious bargains which stuff the treaty of Versailles—an instrument which we have twice re. | ected in this chamber and which | is ad losses As A * -: . tad 18 ee ee Oe & ci re: Be i Re. tis Se Gil ae er t Shy Ae ge i = ig ; CONTINUED ON ow Fooata PAGE. ; i

It so happened that I was the only Ambassador there, so I had a clean ‘scoop.’ ”’ King Alfonso, in talking about the United States, told him, Mr. Moore said, that he felt the Philip- pines and Cuba were taken from Spain by this country in a fair man- ner and that this country was en- titled to them. But he did not think the United States should havé taken Porto Rico. “T told him,’’ Mr. Moore said, “that I couldn’t commit my gvoy- ernment, but, speaking purel’ from a personal standpoint, I would give him back Porto. Rico and throw the Philippines in with the bargain.’ The king’s reply, Mr. Moore said, was one that such a proposal deserved, being featured by a mild curse. Looking down at the. senators and representatives, Mr. Moore said that they had to run for reelection every six years and two years, re- spectively. “But the newspaper editor has to run for office every day,’ he reminded them. Casper S. Yost, president of the society, read a letter from Ulric Bell, president of the National Press club, which expressed the hope that the society would hold its conventions in the:proposed new National Press building when that structure is completed. ‘WAS ILL ONLY TWO DAYS Jer’s undertaking establishment. er, 81, Discovered by Messenger Boy.

The Federation of Citizens’ A3- sociations last night authorized ap- pointment of a standing committee of seven members to work for rep- resentation in Congress for the Dis- 'trict and the right for Washing- tonians to vote for President and Vice President of the United States until these ends are accomplished. A lengthy report reviewing the history of the movement for na- tional suffrage here was submitted by James W. Murphy, delegate from the Kalorama Citizens’ association, and recommending the creation of the committee and a revival of ac- tive campaigning for the Jones joint resolution. It was adopted. The report criticized the District commissioners for their recent re- fus4l to recommend the measure on the ground that it involved a change in the form of local government. Delegate Murphy’s report denied that such a change was contem. plated by the proposed constitution- al amendment. Rupert Hughes is Criticized. Proceedings of the federation were enlivened by . W. Ayers, representing the West End Citizéns association, who presented a resolu- tion criticizing Rupert Hughes, novelist, for ‘‘slandering’’ George Washington in recent speeches in which he said the Father of His Country drank and danced. It was ruled out of order on the ground that it did not originate in a con- stituent association. The federation, after a lively de- bate, overruled its committee on laws and legislation and, by a vote of 33 to 16, recommendéd a law to place a personal property tax on all stock issues of public utility cor- porations owned in the District. A resolutiOn asking that: homes be exempted from realty tax to the extent of $3,000, was voted down. An Inopportune Resolution. A resolution recommending pop- ular election of District commis- Sioners was placed on file as being inopportttne to press upon Congress at this time.

“ ‘power the President “SEIZING COAL MINES Copeland’s Joint Resolution, Meets With Opposition to %, such Legislation. FAILURE TO ACT HERE ‘ DISAPPOINTS MINERS Leaders Anxious to Negotiate With Government; Drive for Funds Planned. ee (By the Associated Press.) After President Coolidge had been attacked and defended yester- day in the Senate for inaction in the anthracite suspension, a pro- posal was put forward that would give him full authority to bring about a resumption of mining. It was in the form of a joint reso- lution by Senator Copeland (Demo-r crat), New York, and would em- to seize the mines, fix the price of anthracite at the mines as well as wages of em- ployes, and compensate the mine owners. At the request of the au- thor the measure was sent to the interstate commerce committee. The running fire of discussion as to whether the President can do anything now indicated rather wide-spread opposition to any such legislation. Expert Opinion Sought. In the debate Chairman Oddie of the ‘mining committee, disclosed that his committee has sent to the Commerce Department for expert opinion on a measure designed to carry out the recommendations of the President’s coal commission by giving the government a greaier measure of authority to deal with emergencies in both the anthracite and soft coal industries. , Senator Oddie told the Senate he did not think this was the time to consider that legislation because of the pres- ent situation in the anthracite field. Intimation in the debate ,of a possible combination between opera- tors and miners to bring about the suspension drew denial from repre- sentatives of the miners here, who declared there could be no such con- spiracy as was hinted at in the Sen- ate discussion.

EO, (Fine Levied 18-Years Ago Threatens Man’s Home | Des Moines, Iowa, Jan. 16 (By A. P.).—Facing deprivation of his home to satisfy the State’s demands for payment of a fine imposed eighteen years ago, Charles Eddy, 70-year-old paint- er, of Belle Plaine, has appealed to Gov. Hammill. The property has been ordered sold January 23 to satisfy the judgment of the Benton county court, imposed September 25, 1907, for a State liquor law vio- lation. Eddy pleaded guilty and was fined $300. and costs and’ sentenced to 90 days in jail. He served the. jail sentence, | but was unable to pay the finc. The State for eighteen years left Eddy unmolested. While the fine was growing to $725 through increase of integgst, he saved his money and bought a home. Eddy’s attempt to obtafm a loan on his property brought to light the old judgment against him. \ a Lewis, legislativ® representatives of the United Mine Workers of America, said the-miners would wel- come an opportunity to negotiate with the government in preference to the operators. While Senate discussion was in progress, four members of the House from New York city joined in a request to Chairman Parker of the House Interstate Commerce committee, that this committee take immediate action on the recémmen- dation of the President in his last annual message that he be given power to act when an emergency ex- ists in the anthracite field. Action Here Watched. Hazleton, Pa., Jan. 16 (By A. P.). Activities of national legislators and others at Washington in the effort to find a way to end the anthracite strike are being closely watched by leaders of the United Mine Workers, but no: comment is forthcoming from them on any phase of the sit- uation. The reiteration by ‘the govern- ment that there will be no interfer- ence at this time in the strike was a disappointment to many miners and business people generally. The tie-up, now in its fifth month, has had a very depressing effect on busi- ness in the smaller communities, and the prospect that the suspen- sion would continue at least another month made the gloom deeper than ever. District officers and other leaders are concentrating energies on re- lief work. It has been planned to send representatives to many East- ern points where anthracite is con- sumed to encourage the response to the appeal of the American Federa- tion of Labor for funds. It was stated here that the min- ers’ uhion was not out of funds, but that the plans for funds are being laid With a view of properly financing the strike for an indefinite period. Mrs. Edward R.

By order of the Seseph M. Marzolf, acting commander; EME TOBA MATTEOTI EAT Charge of Complicity in Death Must Be Aired, Premier of Italy Asserts. EXTRA SESSION CALLED FOR ARGUMENT TODAY ae Return of Opposition Deputies Causes Crisis; Free Fight Follows Challenge. Rome, Jan. 16 (By A. P.),— Permier Mussolini today cast a chal- lenge at his opponents. openly to de- bate ‘their accusations of his com- plicity in the murder of the social- ist deputy, Matteotti, in the Cham- ber of Deputies tomorrow. Matte- otti was killed in June, 1924, and his death has constituted the strong- est weapon of the opponents of fas- cism and. the most serious blot on the fascist. escutcheon. Politicians said tonight that the affair will be publicly threshed out tomorrow if the opposition deputies dare to-accept the premier’s chal- lenge. Return is Unexpected. This question, referred to as a “moral question,’’ although not specifically named, was brought up dramatically in the chamber this afternoon, when deputies of the popular and_ social - democratic, parties, formerly belonging ‘to the Aventine group, unexpecfedly en- tered the house at a session devoted to honoring the memory of the late Queen Mother Margherita. Since the opposition deputies, in creating the ‘‘moral question’’ of the Matteotti affair nineteen months ago, proclaimed to the nation that they would not return to parliament until Mussolini fell, their return this afternoon was interpreted in some circles as a retraction of their accu- sations. The premier, however, hastened to avail himself of this opportunity to offer proof of his innocence. He announced dramatically that the return to the chamber of the forum members of the Aventine group created ‘‘a moral question which must be confronted immedi- ately.”’ He demanded a= special session of the chamber tomorrow for this purpose, overruling the ob- jection of Roberto Farinacci, secre- tary general of the fascist: party, that the opposition was too unim- portant to warrant attention. Opposition Members Flec. The premier was extremely pale when he made his announcement in the midst of a tense silence, which, however, gave way to an ovation as the deputies approved his proposal. The opposition mem- bers, sensing danger if they re- mained in the chamber, where they were vastly outnumbered by the ex- cited fascists, dashed for the exits, pursued by many fascists.

Solia conviction. . Incidentally, Senator ‘Edwin S. Broussard, of Louisiana, ‘in an exchange with the Ohio sen- ator, trapped the latter into saying that in certain cases of violations of the enforcement law he might favor hanging. Senator Jones assailed the sug- gestion that 2.75 per cent beer ‘might be produced under the pro- ‘hibition amendment. He declared this was not so and insisted that “the reports throughout the country ighow that prosperity is-general, »bank deposits larger and health con- ‘ditions better than before prohibi- tion. ' Senator Edge took direct excep- tion to this. He cited the census ‘figures to show that deaths from + alcoholism had increased under the ‘present law from 20 to 900 per cent. “Taken on a basis of increases in “each 100,000 deaths, he gave the following figures: California, 1920, 25; 1925, 123; Connecticut, 14—63; Colorado, .7—29; Illinois, 47—-239; Indiana, 16—-47; Massachusetts, 70—269; ‘Minnesota, 20-——62; Missouri, 14— 101; New Jersey, 28--—-136; New York, 123—-569; Tennegsee, 27— 24; South Carolina, 13—-22; Rhode -Island, 20—52. / KEdge quoted the Rev. William E. “Johnson (Pussyfoot) as refusing to agree that the Volstead law was a proper weapon to end drinking and as admitting that ‘some good men -drink.’’ He said he favored giving ‘the prohibition unit’ all the money it legitimately needs to enforce the Jaw, but he was opposed to the pur- ‘chase of evidence. Senator Broussard quoted Pro- ‘hibition Commissioner Jones as de- ‘claring that fines are no more ef- fective in solving the prohibition problem than was low license in ‘golving the saloon question and urging prison sentences instead of fines. Broussard Puts Question. Senator Broussard was asked by Senator Fess whether he did not believe the violations of the law should be felonies instead of mis- demeanors. ‘I do not,’ was the reply. “The senator apparently would like to go back to the days when they hanged a man for stealing a slice of bread.’ Senator Fess took exception to this and then declared that, after all, what was wanted was that if the law were to be amended it should be at the hands of its friends, not its enemies. **Does the senator assert,’’ Brous- sard demanded, ‘‘that an antiprohi- bitionist is no léss a good citizen than a prohibitionist?”’ “Yes, in the case of a change in this law,’’ was the reply. “That being the case,’’ persisted Broussard, “I assume you probably would say that a man might be hanged for a violation of this law.’ “TIT believe in capital punishment in certain cases,’’ replied Fess. Senator Edge interjected with the statement that. the prohibition- ists have decreed the Volstead law perfect and refuse to allow any one to amend it. Senator Morris Sheppard,. of Texas, said this was the sixth anni- versary of prohibition and no one can say that ‘it has not been most beneficial to the nation at large.” He read a statement by Judge E. H. ary recounting the benefits of pro- hibition only to be interrupted by Senator Bruce, who asked: * “Ig it not a fact that although Judge Gary writes dry he is an in- dulger in intoxicants. I have that gtatement on the authority of Capt. Stayton, of Baltimore, who made it in public and Judge Gary has not denied it?’’ * “Well, Judge Gary is a truthful man,’’ replied Sheppard. ' “Yes, and so is Stayton,” con- tinued Bruce. At this point Sena- tor Cole L. Blease queried whether Judge Gary was the only man 8en- ator Sheppard knew who favored rohibition and. liked his own iquor. There was no reply and shortly afterward the Senate re- cessed until tomorrow. Pinchot and Mellon Dispute Pennsylvania Enforcement Following a conference in Secre- .tary of the Treasury Mellon’s of- ‘fice yesterday, Goy. Pinchot of ie) anaes in a duel of statementé over é re crate, enforcement in the gov- cohol are diverted to bootleggers ' {m Pennsylvania annually. He ' phrased his statement in the pres- ey te of newspaper reporters and tant Secretary Andrews, in ge of prohibition enforcement, ‘ fe d the latter agreed with his pre- SENATE COMMITTEE VOTES COMPROMISE TAX MEASURE CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE. The Democratic program, which also called for repeal of the taxes On capital stock, admissions and dues, would have increased the to- tal reduction to $500,000,000. The reductions on surtaxes voted by -the committee went consider- ably below the minimum in the House schedule, which called for a cut * these rates on incomes over $44,000. Senator King (Democrat), Utah, voted against the sixteen other members of the committee on the proposed repeal of the inheritance tax. This vote also included répeal of the increased inheritance rates put in the 1924 revenue act and in- stead would make the lower rates in the 1921 revenue act apply on all inheritances since the 1924 rates became effective and up to enact- ment of the proposed bill into law. Simthons Claims Victory. This retroactive reduction on in- heritances, which was voted by the House ways and means committee but later rescinded by that body, would involve a loss of $20,000,000 this year. The Treasury has estimated that under the present inheritance rates this tax.would yield $110,000,000 in 1926. ; Commenting on the committee’s action, Senator Simmons described it as ‘‘a victory for the Democrats,”’ pointing out their proposal for re- peal of the capital stock tax had been accepted and that the commit- tee had modified the surtax and ad- mission levies. The committee refused, however, a proposal by the Democrats to re- vise the debt funding retirement plan whereby the sinking fund would be slightly increased but all payments from foreign governments on account of war debts or interest would be applied to it. Additional Changes in Bill. In its consideration of the non- partisan House bill, the committee has made the following additional changes: Increase in the exemption from the: admission tax from 50 to 75 cent tickets. Repeal of the House provision exempting tickets to spoken drama productions from the admission levy. Repeal of the stamp taxes on custom house entries ‘and with- drawals and on steamship passage tickets. Restoration of a 2 per cent tax on automobile trucks. The House had voted to repeal the present 3 per cent tax on trucks. Repeal of the capital stock tax. Increase of the corporation tax of 12% per cent to: 13 per cent on taxes payable this year and to 13% per cent on taxes payable after January 1, 1987. This was dene to offset the repeal of the corpora- tion tax. A motion made by Senator Short- ridge, Republican, of California, to permit wives and husbands to file separate returns on their incomes in States where community prop- erty laws are in effect was defeated. Such laws are in effect in eight States. PERSHING TO CHARGE REIGN OF TERROR BY THE CHILEANS CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE. a change in the present conduct of the Chileans in the plebiscite terri- tory. Gen. Pershing on his arrival in Washington will see the Preisdent and will report the situation to him in detail. It js understood he will urge upon the‘President that three principal requirements, necessary to insure the Peruvians freedom from molestation, ought to -be fulfilled before the plebiscite proceedings, beginning with the registration of the voters next month, are permit- ted to continue. These requirements are that Peru shall be able to return exiled Peru- vian voters to Tacna and Arica x ithout danger of violence from the Chileans; that Peruvian electoral agents shall be able to. travel throughout the territory without molestation, and that Peruvian resi- dents.be freed from coercion against expressing their opinions or from any penalty for entering into rela- liminary phrases, but after the g0v- ernor had disergarded suggestions for different phraseology Mr. An- drews was silent and merely suf- fered the interview to continue. Secretary Mellon was stung into a statement in reply by Gov. Pin- chot’s statement that W. L. Mellon, | his nephew, controlled a group of Pennsylvania legislators who “have been opposed to dry legislation and still are. This reference Secretary Mellon characterized as an ‘‘inde- fensible insinuation.’’ - Gov. Pin- chot, the Secretary said, should not attempt to exploit W. L. Mellon, a private business man, simply be- cause he is the nephew of the Sec- retary of the Treasury. Senate Passes Bill For Appomattox Signs The bill by Senator Swanson, of Virginia, for the erection of per- manent markers at Appomattox battle grounds was passed by the Senate yesterday. It now goes to the House. It would provide for.a commis- sion of,.an army engineer, a Union veteran and a Confederate veteran to go over the battle ground and mark its higtoric points. They would be given $3,000 for expenses, and must report to the present Con- gress by next December. Then per- enn markers could be arranged or. Woman Hurt Leaving Car.

In presenting the situation to Gen, Lassiter, and later to the Presi- dent, it is understood that Gen. Pershing will Sih ye a glaring vio- lation of the jn requirement the recent attack by a Chilean mob upon Peruvian voters who were being landed from a steamer at Tacna. He will cite as a violation of the other requirement the continued an- noyance to which the Chileans sub. ject thesellers of a Peruvian news- paper as well as Peruvian residents, and the activities of Chilean patrio- tic organizations which watch the actions of all potential Peruvian voters and which, he will explain, exert great pressure on the inhabi- tants not only of the cities but in the remoter country districts where the dominance of the Chilean au- ®horities is complete. While Gen, Pershing views as a hopeful sign the forceful measures taken by ‘Agustin Edwards, the Chilean commissioner, to prevent repetition of violence against re- turning Peruvians voters, he does not cOnsider that freedom for the Peruvians to conduct an election campaign in safety yet exists. /RESIGNATIONS HELD ASKED IN ADVANCE CONTINU ED FROM FIRST PAGE. Mr. Lewis as a holdover under a recess appointment.”’ Senator Norris then read an ex- tract from the Protectionist, of Boston, declaring that the appoint- ment was ‘“‘only for the time being,”’ and then read a letter sent by Will- iam 8S. Culbertson, now American Minister to Roumania, but at that <itime chairman of the commission, to Edward B. Costigan, another member who was at the time at his home in Colorado, giving what was said to be the “‘inside story” of the Lewis matter. In this letter Cul- bertson said the President had told him he would reappoint Lewis and had furnished him a sheet of White House stationery on which the ap- pointee was to write his resigna- tion to take effect ‘‘whenever the President desired it to.” Culbertson fused to take offite under such cir- cumstances and personally had vis- ited Mr. Coolidge. en the lat- ter, after signing the recess com- mission, asked for the resignation, the Maryland man refused and told him that ‘‘as there are only two of us who know this commission has been signed, why not tear it-up?” The President did not do so, Cul- bertson wrote. The Nebraska senator said he would furnish additional facts and figures to prove his contentions’ at _ @ later date. i id Lewis had re- a 62-year period.

Debated resolution appropriating $50,000 for U. S. participation in Geneva preliminary disarmament conference. An export bounty on wheat, corn, hogs and cattle was urged be- fore the agricultural committee by William Adcock, of the IMflinois legislature. A bill to appropriate $100,000,- 000 to enable the government to buy wheat, store it in bonded ele- vators and sell it to stabilize prices was introduced by Mr. Little (Dem- ocrat), of Kansas. An appropriation of $100,000 for. a national military park on the site of the siege of Petersburg, Va., is provided in a bill by Mr. Drewry, of Virginia. Before agricultural committee, John P. Wallace and Harvey Ing- ham, publishtrs, of Des Moines, Iowa, indorsed the Dickinson farm export bill. MOSES SAYS NATIONS WOULD ACCEPT COURT RESERVATIONS CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE. the people in a great and solemn referendum and in an. election equally great an@ more joyous, have twice repudiated; an instru- ment which this court of the League’ of Nations spends most of its time trving to interpret. At his own request Senator Moses was not interrupted while he was delivermg his set address but after he had finished Senator William Cabell Bruce, of. Maryland, mildly hazed him for. what he character- ized as his ‘‘narrow viewpoint.”’ Moses View Called Narrow. “Senator Moses,’ asserted the Maryland Senator, ‘‘is a believer in a liberal America; I am a believer in a great America. The breadth of Senator Moses’ corception of a nation is more in keeping with the boundary of a county than the boundaries of a great nation. There was a Moses’ who would lead a people out of a wilderness and there is another who would lead them into one. 1 believe this country must join with all of the nations of the earth in uniting for world peace and the entrance to the ‘court is a step in this direction.”’ Senator Lynn J. Frazier (Repub- lican), North Dakota, offered a reservation to be attached to the Swanson resolution which, he said, would probably lead to the with- drawal of much of the opposition to the court proposal. It provided for the ‘“‘scrapping’’ of all of the ves- sels of war now on the high seas and substitution therefor of an “‘in- ternational police force of the seas”’ under the jurisdiction of the league of nations. Adhesion of the United States to the world court would be made conditional on this interna- tional police force of the seas being conducted in a manner ‘‘satisfac- tory to the Congress of the United States’ and if this was not done then the United States would at all timvres be entitled .to withdraw from the court and rebuild its navy. Court Foes Defeated. These were the chief develop- ments of the day in the Senate so far as the world court was con- cerned. The opponents were de- feated in an effort to have Calendar Monday recognized,*Senator Curtis \ successfully getting through a re- cess instead of an adjournment mo- tion. ‘This means. that the ceurt will again be the main business be- fore the Senate on Monday. Throughout his entire set address Senator Moses insisted there could be no question but that the court is a part of the League of Nations and he cited the facts in connection with its organization to demon- strate that contention. He assailed the advisory opinion powers as a serious menace to this country, say- ing: “There certainly is no legal ob- jection to prevent the council of ithe League of Nations from swb- mitting to the court the question of ¢ the competency of any of our debters to pay the money which they owe us, or from asking the court to render an opinion on the subject of immigration or upon the question of our tariffs, and inas- much as the question of interna- tional waterways is expressly dealt with in the treaty of Versailles, and the court has special jurisdiction over matters rising out of treaties which have been lodged with it, there is no legal obstacle whatever to bringing before the court the question of tolls on the Panama canal.’ Japan Questions Alien Law. The senator then cited instances to show that this question already has been considered by ~-foreign statesmen. Japan, he gaid, has de- clared:-our immigration laws were in disregard of international law and could call this to the attention of the court. ‘“‘Under such a circumstance, ” he continued, ‘‘we would.find our- selves, if we became members of this court, sitting in a judicial body which could proceed to handle a domestic question which is purely our own upon the theory of its hay- ing become international.”’ Because none of the reservations so far proposed meet with the “‘in- dispensables”’ as suggested by Presi. dent Harding, the New Hampshire senator proposed four of his own and it was these which he said he was willing to have the State De- partment find out whether they would be accepted by the powers signatory to.the court agreement. Moses’ Four Reservations, They were: “First. To provide so that future revisions of the statute of the court shall be brought about not by the league but by independent general international conferences, such as Mr. Root struggled for in the com- mittee of jurists. “Second. To provide that the court shall’no longer be elected’ by the League of Nations, but shall be chosen as well as nominated by the national groups of the existing per- manent court of arbitration at The Hague. “Third. That the pay, pensions, and expenses of the court shall be met not by contributions to the gen- eral treasury of the league, thence to be allocated as the league sees fit, but through the permanent admin- istrative council or the, interna- tional bureau of the permanent court of arbitration at The Hague— bodies still existent and atill capable of functioning and open to no impli- cation that they are attempting to carry forward the ambitions of the League of Nations to become a supergovernment of the world. “Fourth. To provide, not as now proposed that the advisory opinions rendered by the court to the League of Nations shall not be binding—as they are not in any real sense—but to provide absolutely that such opinions shall not be rendered ® at} all.’” Gold Stone-set Bar Pins. $5 to $75 R.

The couple, who have attracted the world’s spotlight of popular interest, were besieged since dawn in the royal suite at the exclusive Carlton hotel men of all nations, and movie operators. Mr. Berlin after spending hun- dreds of pounds in tips, arranged for the telephone connection to be cut, no letters or notes delivered, and no cards received. But the news hounds, undaunted, several times tried to batter their way through'‘the privacy of the honey- mooners’ bedroom door. Mr. Berlin finally went to the telephono in an djoining room and called his best pal on the present trip, Arch Selwin, who is at the Savoy hotel, and declared: | “Arch, I am so blankety blank fed up on these blankety blank newspaper guys that I have decid- ed to give up our European honey- moon trip and want to sail back to New York on the first available boat, preferably the Leviathian, on Tuesday if there is nothing sooner.

By MRS. JOHN B. HENDERSON. America’s greatest architect, Henry H. Richardson (died 1886), was especially noted for his natural talent, originality and charm of de- tail. He poetized whatever he teuched, even to prosaic brick -ma- terial, this latter feature being well illustrated in the Nicholas Ander- son house. His entrances have been called dreams.. Unfortunately, we have none of his massive public buildings in Washington, but have (or had) three of his private residences: One for John\Hay, standing as a/ feature entrance to Sixteenth street. His second house was built for Nicholas Anderson, corner of Sixteenth and K streets. The third house, in stone, was built for Benjamin H. Warder. This latter ebtablishment fell under the com- mercial axe some three years ago when the appreciative and sorrow- ing Maj. Totten picked it from off the ground to reconstruct on Meri- dian hill, The entrance for this building, also one of the fireplaces, are now a part of the ‘National museum, Maj. Totten using a re- plica of the entrance door for the reconstruction, The John Hay house has lately heen purchased by Harry Wardman for the purpose of erecting thergpn a huge hotel. A rumbling in the airy, and in a jiffy Harry Wardman purehased the Nicholas Anderson heuse, on the ashes of which an- other hotel project is now half way up in the afr. Louis Napoleon Needed. It is inspiring to contemplate how Loujis Napoleon reconstructed Paris, regardless of method, ex- pense or detail, to make Paris up to date, the most beautiful capitol in the world. It is a mecca for all tourists and art students and the beauty of Paris has proved to be. an enormous pecuniary asset for entire France. How fine it would be if an expert Louis Napoleon could take Washington in hand! If all members of Congress have not the time or training of Louis Napoftov for expert city manage- ment, they could at least- scan the whole country for the most trained individual, at a competent salary, to take their individual) places. George Washington found the right man in Maj. L’Enfant. Poor L’Bnfant died in sorrow for want of peeeeceesens and in poverty, One hundred and fifty years later, the Conzgress of today may better appreciate expert training, not only for our National City but for any other big business of nationa] im~ pertance. The “expert” would at least have te understand what is killing the ey of 50 many others of our merican cities; also he would not ave to expend money for widen- ing thoroughfares and opening vistas in the old city proper, as George Washington and Maj. L'Enfant did that much for us. I give a few extracts from a book jately issued, “Plan of Chi- cago."" The plan was inaugurated and partly financed by the Com- mercial cluh, of Chicago, and is- sued by the Chicago plan commis- sien. In Chicago, the citizéns of the whole town, together with the entire press and the aid of Danie} Burnham, Charles Moore, head ef our art commission, and others, all ef, whom turned Loufs Napoleons.

The experience of other cities, both ane cient sed modern, teaches Chicago that the way to true greatness and eentinued prosperity lies in making the city healthful for the ever in- erpeasing numbers of its citizens; that civic beauty satisfies a epaving of human pature so deep ahd 50 compelling that people will travel fay to find and enjoy it; that the erderly arrangement of fine build- ings and monuments brings fame and wealth to the city, and that planning for the civic development ingures permanence.

This killing disease may be calle “pulmonary consumption of resi- dential avenues."”’ The tall apart- ment house or hotel is the first stage of the fatal malady. It cuts off light, air and view, reducing valuea of nearby residential struc- tures 50 per cent. -Discouraged residents give up the ghost of a former civic pride and feel like leaving for elsewhere—anywhere, if anywhere there be, for future safety. No matter to them what follows, if they can better get their money back for commercial values. This fatal disease is purely American, never having reached foréign capitals, where apartment houses are as desirable as private residences, the same sky“line being maintained; nor has any foreign capital city the advantages of Wash~ ington in ample open spaces for al} commercial requirements. This recalls the true story of the enterprising commercial American who attempted to surprise Paris by erecting near the Are de Triumph a hotel] that exeeeded in height the fixed city plan.

RETURN OF LONGTALLED DRESS COAT IS DECREED | ne Will Supplant Tuxedo as Cor-. rect Evening Dress, Styte | Delegate Says. | OXFORD BAGS GOING QUT The long-tailed evening dress coat is coming back to favor, and the doom of the baggy trousers is sealed. P. J. Feley, Washington tailor and executive committeeman of the International Merchant Tailors-De- signers association, leaving last night for its convention at New Or- leans, revealed this much advance information on association decisions during the present week. The “full dress coat,’’ ‘‘soup and fish” or ‘“‘swallow tail,’’ as it is known, will be regarded by tailor- designers as correct evening dress for men on occasions where women are present. It will supplant the “dinner jaeket”’ or ‘‘tuxedo” in this respect, Mr. Foley said. Likewise, the “Oxford bag’’ type of trousers’ will give way to those af straight, thinner lines. Coat, shoul- ders will remain broad, he believes, but the general shape of masculine attire will be more conventional. Blue greens will be popular shades. Mr. Foley, once president of the association, was formerly in busi- ness here for himself, and is now connected with the firm of George T. Keen, Inc. National Employment And Pay Gain Slightly (By the Associated Press.) Employment in the United States increased slightly during December over November, the Labor Depart- ment reported yesterday, while wage earnings increased more sub- stantially. Checking the pay-rol) totals from 9,294 establishments in 53 industries, the statement placed the December index of numbers em. ployed at 92.6, while for November it was 92.5. The total wage paid was repre- sented in December by the index figure of 97.3, while for November it was represented by 96,2. Of the 53 industries, 30 showed an increased number of employes, while among those showing a loss were a number subject to seasonal fluctuation, } Employes Favor. AVERAGE U.S.SALARY HERE IS $1,700 ANNUALLY First House Hearing Held to Cansider. Insurance for Postal Clerks. \ Joint hearings were concluded yesterday on ‘bills pending in both houses to liberalize government em- ployes’ retirement provisions. With overwhelming support among «the employes’ representatives for the Lehlbach-Stansfield bill, the joint subcommittee is expected to follow this bill closely, if not report the bill in its entirety. Prompt aetion is expected by the full committees of the two houses with a view to bring the proposed legislation to the House and Senate floors for early consideration. The Lehlbach-Stansfield measure would increase the maximum an- nuity’ to $1,200 figured on a salary of $1,800 as against the present maximum annuity of $720. The hearing yesterday developed that the average. salary of government employes is $1,700 a year. The bill would provide optional retire- ment at the end of 30 years’ service while the em@loyes would increase their contribution to the support of the retirement fund from 2% to 3% per cent oftheir salary. ‘ The joint committee took up the subject Thursday and held all-day sessions until every one interested had been heard. Government officials joined with the employes’ representatives in urging that the present law be Iltb- eralized and asserting that it would result in more efficient service. In- creased salaries granted the postal workers last year were an economy, postal supervisory officials asserted, because they had resulted in greatly improved service. he Lehibach-Stansfield meagure provides for arbitrary retirement at the age of 70 after 15 years’ serv- ice. Representatives of the pension bureau workers protested against this feature, asserting that it placed them at a disadvantage, inasmuch as the bureau had not been created as long as the others. William Collins, president of the Railway Mail’ Clerks association, asked that the preferred treatment, which the railway clerks receive under the present act because of the hazardous nature of their work, not be overlooked in the new legisla- tion. Government actuaries did not ap- pear at the hearing because of the pressure of other business and it may be that the’ hearing will be reopened at a later date to permit their conclusions being heard on the cost of the new act.

Workers From All Sections of, ‘Country to March, Carry- ing Banners. “FAIR FIELD, NO FAVOR,” BURDEN OF~THEIR PLEA Mass Meeting Will Be Held. Later to Protest Wel- fare Legislation. Carrying banners that have not | seen the light since the old days of | militant suffrage here, 300 working | ‘women from all parts of the coun- try will march to the White House at 3 o’clock today. They will leave a petition for President Coolidge which challenges the whole theory of “protective’’ and ‘‘welfare”’ laws ‘for women in industry. ‘A fair field and no favor’’——this | will be the keynote of the gather- ing. After the visit to the White liouse the women will gather at a mass meeting in the Belasco theater and listen to speakers denounce the various laws which handicap women in industry. The meeting, the first of its kind to be held here, will be under the auspices of the National Woman’s Party, which will supply the “old suffrage banners for the occasion. Against ‘Special Privileges” In statements given out in ad- vance of the meeting, the women declare that they do not want “spe- cial privileges’’ that tend to take away more than they give, but the same opportunities, the same pay, the responsibilities in industry, in business, and in the professions, that men have. Mrs. Mary Murray, _York, president of the league of the Brooklyn and Man- hattan railroad, will be the first speaker at the mass meeting. She will state the case of the women in industry from the point of view of one who led the fight of the railroad women for exemp- tion trom the provision of the so- called welfare law which, it is said, threw 8,000 women in New York out of jobs. Other speakers will be Mrs. | Rheta Childe Dorr, author and war! correspondent; Miss Margaret Hin-} chey, tormer railroad employe, now! an elevator operator in New York: Joseps:ne Casey, of Chicago, a former organizer of the Amer-| ican Mederation of Labor; Miss Gail Laughiin, of Port- land.

After I had my teeth X-rayed, |the dentist pointed out some white ‘spots on the film which he called | pulp-stones. (1) What are pulp- | Stones? (2) Does anything have to be done for their treatment?— | A. €1) They are lime deposits | in the nerve chamber of the tooth | which, at times, cause the tooth to ‘ache. (2) Nothing unless they cause trouble. : Coasting Aftermath. | My boy, 10 years old, was ‘coasting down a hil] and bumped into a post, breaking one of his front teeth. The tooth was loosen- ed and knocked crooked and I push- ed it back straight. Since this has happened, the tooth has tightened. (1) Will this tooth be all right or will it have to come out? (27) What will be done by the dentist after it has been extracted?—J. W. M. A. -(1) Watch the tooth closely ito see whether it remains alive. If ithe nerve in the tooth dies, it will lhave to be extracted or treated. ; (2) A one-tooth partial plate can ibe put in until be is old enough to j}have a bridge made. Toothache From Tonsils. Q. When I had my tonsils re- moved, I noticed that all my teeth ached. This pain has since left me but l’ve been wondering why [teeth should ache when I had my ‘tonsils out.—B. B. A. The nerves which supply the teeth are in close relation to the nerves which supply the tonsils. In- flammation in the tonsilar area may ispread to the nerves of the teeth and sO cause them to ache.

The ten boys studying to become drummers in the drum class con- ducted by the Friendship house, 326 Virginia avenue southeast, soon will have real drums to ‘play on. Heretofore they had played on boards. The boards, however, have produced two or three expert drum- mers, Miss Lydia Burklin,: head resident of the house, declares. From money collected for the | purpose during the holidays three Scout drums have The house plans to provide drums for each of the boys in a short time. As it stands, Al Stern, teacher of the class, will promote the best drummers to the new drums until drums are obtained for all. The house is having considerable dififculty in obtaining a ukelele teacher for a ukelele class recently organized. Teachers, seem to be scarce. A new class in dramatics for small girls from 8 to 10 has been organized, and will begin to- morrow. Miss Marceline Kray and Miss Betty Clark will teach the class.

The other two principals are Fred Patton, barytone, and Charles Trow- bridge Tittmann, basso. These singers, together with Elda Vettori, soprano; Ulysses Lappas, tenor, who scored a success here in November in ‘‘La Tosca;’’ Feodor Chaliapin, who will appear here in “Don Carlos’’ in April; Ivan Ivan- tzoff, barytone, who has sung here often in opera, and Sigurd Nillsen, who made his operatic debut in “Romeo and Juliet’’ here form the nucleus around which Mr. Albion hopes to build a national opera com- pany. Chain of Companies Planned. It ig proposed that a number of cities be linked together with com- panies like the Washington com- pany in which the chorus and or- chestra shal] be developed locally. An operatic program would be pre- pared for a season and the local units would begin work. When the date for performance came, the national association would supply the cast, chosen from the corps of singers under contract, the scenery, and the costumes.

Armistead Gills, U. S. N., re- tired, of Richmond, Va. Dr. Gills has laid before members of the naval committees of the House and Senate facts which he justify an investigation which will go behind the common assumption that the navy, because of its expressed concern, is properly and adequately protecting’ the health of its enlisted personnel. “If the attention given to sur. gery were directed to preventive medicine,’ Dr. Gills declared, : ‘‘it would go a long way in the direc- tion of a national defense.’ A resolution providing for a con- gressional investigation was intro- 'duced in the Senate last March by | by a Senator King, of Utah, M.| olution failed of ac@jon and died but the res- with the last Congress. Represent- |ative McClintock, of Oklahoma, Dr. Gillis said, has promised his aid in | obtaining a hearing for him before the House naval committee. Dr. Gills’ experiences and con- clusions have been summarized in a book which he has written, enti- tled ‘‘The Price of a SaiPor’s Life?”’ The book, the doctor declared, has been submitted to the Navy De- partment, but no comment has been forthcoming. me - and practical and fair.

Henry, Prince of Tellers.”’ PAN-AMERICAN ARTISTS PRODUCE LATING MUSIC Distinguished Audience of ' 1,000 at Union Delighted | With Renditions. PROGRAM ‘IS. BROADCAST Five Pan-American artists, some of them never before heard in |'Washington, gave a program of Latin-American music in a concert held in the Hall of the Americas of the Pan-American Union build- ing last night before an audience of diplomats and unemceca and resi- dential society. Nearly 1,000 guests heard Al- fredo Oswald, the Brazilian pianist, open the program with compositions of his father, Henrique Oswald, the Brazilian composer. Mr. Oswald is a pianist of unusual merit, thorough command of technic and most sympathetic interpretation. Of’the four numbers played, the “Scherzo’’ was given with beauty and a fire of feeling that won ap- plause. The nxt artist, Alma Simpson, an American lyric soprano, was happy in her selection of Argentine and Chilean airs. Through her strains one could catch the hint of the lilt of castanets which enlivens most Spanish music. She possessed a freshness and purity of tone and an artistic finish of production which accounts for her wide repu- tation in Pan-America. Equalling her voice in sweetness but with a richer, lower melody was with a. | Psychology ithe subject. Ey that of Laurette Howard, American contralto, who came nexi on the pro- stam with a. group of songs of Ecuador, Peru and Porto Rico. Miss Howard has an untfRually full, high register for a contralto’ and technical skill. . The audience was delighted with her singing and ap- plauded her enthusiastically, Elio Bolognini, the Argentine cellist, who followed Miss Howard, handled his. difficult producing a golden tone of con- sistent beauty and quality. His se- lection was a group of Argentine folk songs arranged to bring out the native melodies in most alluring fashion. The audience would not be satisfied until the celHst re- sponded to their applause with an encore. Clara Elena Sanchez, the Mexican soprano, proved one of the delight of the evening. A picturesqte figure in red velvet with a high red comb in her hair, her coloratura soprano endowed her songs with dramatic fervor as well aS a wealth of tenderness. Her selections in- cluded Manuel M. Ponce’s ‘Todo Paso”’ and “El Cefiro.’’ The entire program was brodad- cast by WRC. CITY BRIEFS.

Gilmore, cura- tor of paleontology at the Smith- sonian Institute, has completed a pamphlet on the articulated skele- ton of a saurischian dinosaur at the, Carnegie museum, of Pittsburgh, he | announced yesterday. Prof. Gil-' more’s work has attracted much at- tention in scientific circles. In order to write his description of the prehistoric monster, Prof. Gilmore remained at the Carnegie museum for some time, examining the remains. The pamphlet is 62 pages in length, and contains mi- nute details of the skeleton’s for- mation and peculiar features. Many letters and telegrams of congratu- lation have been received by the scientist as a result of the pam- phlet. Prof. Gilmore has a wide repu- tation as a paleontologist. He is an expert on prehistoric monsters, and is at present reconstructing in talk before the Art and Archaeology league on her ‘Personal Recollec- | tions of James McNeil Whistler.”’ | Mrs. Sleeth, who is now a teach- | er of art at the National Cathedral School for Girls, was at one time a pupil of the great artist at his school in the Academie Carmen in Paris. the basement of the Smithsontan In- stitute, an 80-foot skeleton’ of a dinosaur, which he discovered out West.

ROGAN’'S Offers Rare Values in a Great CLEARANCE Fvery Department Presents T heir Share of Attractive Bargains Make it a a a ee OFFICIAL AUTO DEATH FIGURES DIFFER WIDELY Health Department, Eldridge, Police and Census Bureau Use 4 Different Methods. eet ese oo eo TRAFFIC HEAD CLAIMS 84 Cross-word puzzles and the an- cient brain twister, ‘“‘How old is Ann?” have been succeeded in the District building by the question: ‘“‘How many traffic deaths occurred last year?”’ Statistics ‘from three different sources were studied on this point yesterday, with three different re- sults. The problem started in the health department of the District, which announced that 89 persons had been killed in traffic accidents last year, and 104 in 1924. Director of Traffic M. O. Eldridge said his totals were 84 in 1925 and 91 the year before. The bureau of the census of the Department of Commerce said 88 had been killed in 1925 and 108 in 1924. Then it was discovered that the varying totals were arrived at by dissimilar methods. The health de- partment figures are taken from death certificates, but include per- sons injured in Virginia and Wash- ington who die in the District. The Department of Commerce includes those killed in train wrecks, which the health department does not. The traffic director gets his fig- ures from the police, who some- times miss a fatality that occurs some time after the accident re- sponsible therefor. But, then, the traffic director's results vary from pdlice figure., too, although the two sets of fig- ures emanate from the same source, making a fourth total differing from all the rest. The police charge a death to the month in which the victim dies, while Mr. Eldridge chalks it up against the month in which the accident occurred. These discrepancies occur when the patient lingers in the hospital for a period. Dawes to Be Guest At Ohio Meeting Vice President Charles G.

WORLD WHEAT CROP FOR 1326 ESTIMATED ABOVE THAT OF 1925 Increase of 265,000,000 Bushels Indicated in the Latest Figures. SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE RECEIPTS CUT PRICES Corn Market shows Effects of Increasing Stocks; Oats Quoted Lower. - rrr Larger offerings of new crop wheat fromthe southern hemi- sphere was the principal weakening factor in the world wheat market during the week ending January 16, according to the weekly grain mar- ket review of the United States Department of Agriculture. Aus- tralian exports inmereased more than 3,000,000 bushels, but Argentine exports were still. small, as the quality ofethe wheat being mar- keted in the northern part of. the area is of poor quality and not suit- able for export. Exports will in- crease, however, as wheat from the central and southern part of the wheat belt comes on the market. The world’s wheat crop, accord- ing to latest estimates, will be about 265,000,000 bushels larger this year than last. The crop in the northern hemisphere is about 95,000,000 bushels larger’ than earlier estimates, and about 275,- 000,000 bushels larger than last vear. The acreage sown to winter wheat in the United States, Canada and five foreign countries, which are of considerable importancei:4s producers of wheat, show an in- crease of a little over 100,000 acfes this year. While condition reports are generally favorable, recent floods and unfavorable weather have done considerable damage to the winter crops in some of.-the European countries. Cash Wheat Firmer. The cash wheat markets in the United States were relatively firm- er than foreign markets, and pre- miums ranged from firm to higher for the various classes of wheat. Of- ferings of spring wheat were of good volume for this season of the year, and premiums held at about last week’s level, although high protein grades were slightly weaker. No 1, dark Northern, was quoted at Minneapolis at 7@11 cents over the May price; 12% per cent protein, 9 @13 cents over, and 13 per cent protein, 11@14 cents over the May. Durum premiums also held firm because of light offerings, and continued active mill demand. No 1 amber was quoted at Minneapolis at the Duluth price to 21 cents over., Demand for hard winter wheat was materially improved with East- ern and central States mills active buyers. There was a slight in- crease in the flour demand, which was an additional strengthening factor in the market. Premiums advanced 1-2 cents, except for the high protein typé. No. 2, hard win- ter, 12 per cent protein, was quoted at Kansas City at 8@10 cents over the May price; 12% per cent pro- tein, 10@12 cents over, and 13 per cent protein, 12@13 cents over the May. Soft Winter Wheat Higher: The soft winter was sharply higher at. practically all markets. Receipts and stocks are light, while the demand from Southeastern and Southern mills continued active. Premiums were fully 6 cents higher at some of the markets. Middle Western mills were reported to be bidding active- ly for winter wheat in the Pacific Northwest, and to be offering 8 to 10 cents per bushel above coast market prices. Wheat was sold for Eastern account in Portland at the close of the week at $1.70 per hushel. Stocks‘in storage are large, and an unusually large percentage of the crop also remains in farm- ers’ hands. . There was also a lit- tle export demand on the Pacific coast, and small lots of wheat were reported sold to Japan with’ some flour sales to Northern China. Increasing stocks of corn, to- gether with continued inactivity in the demand at the close of the week weakened the corn market mate- rially, and prices declined 2 to 3 cents per bushel. The colder weath- er has improved the quality of corn, but receipts from lowa and States eastward in the corn belt still con- tained excessive moisture and sold at rather wide discounts under the dryer and higher grades. Export demand was lacking as offerings of Argentine corn to European buy- ers were said to be 8 to 9 cents per bushel below prices of corn from the United States... Elevators con- tinued to be active buyers in most of the markets, but stocks are in- creasing and the storage space is becoming limited. There was a fair inquiry from the West coast for corn in the central Western markets, and Southern mills were fairly active bidders for white corn, and the milling grades of white corn sold at 1 to 2 cents premiums over the yellow grades. Oats Market Lower. The oats market was lower with corn and the large stocks also con- tinued to be a weakening factor. The éurrent demand, however; was fairly active and was sufficient to absorb local offerings, so that there was no material increase in stocks. The rye market was rather fea- tureless, and followed generally the fluctuations in the wheat market. There was practically no export de- mand but there was sufficient de- mand from local mills to absorb the light offerings. The barley market was lower with other feed grains if the cen- tral-western markets with receipts of good volume. The demand both from malsters and from feeders was dull, and at Minneapolis the of- @crings were rather difficult to dis- SPECULATORS ‘The BIGNAL" guide never fails to return profits BOTH SIDES OF THE MABRET.

The demand for feed barley at Portland was slightly more active, but there was prac- tically no export business. Feed barley was quoted at $32 per ton in that market. Export demand for malting barley at San Francisco ‘was dull with very little interest shown by European buyers. Choice brewing barney was quoted at'$1.85 per 100 pounds at tidewater, with field run barley quoted at $1.70 per 100 pounds, and feed barley at California barley on sample was quoted at London at $2.06@ 49 per 100 pounds on spot sales.’ i. f. quotations ranged from 3. 28@$2.50 per 100 pounds. Bank Clearings Ahead Of a Year Ago A notably bbavy voldine of bank clearings is reported this week, the aggregate at leading cities of the United States being $10,069,096,- 000. This is 5.8 per cent more than the amount a year ago, which also was exceptionally large, and is 24.8 per cent in excess of the figures for the corresponding week of 1924 ac- cording to R. G. Dun & Co, With clearings of $6,338,000,000, New York city this week reports a gain of 4.4 per cent over the total for the similar period of 1925, while the increase at outside centers, where. the clearings reached $3,- 731,096,000, is 8.4 per cent. The which shows a loss from the figures | of a year ago is Omaha, and the de- crease. there is but 1.1 per cent. Elsewhere, the gains range from | 1.2 per cent in each case at Cleve. cent at Detroit.

W.R. & E, REPORT SHOWS ANGRERGE OF 31,000,004 Sialeenaet to Stockholders Places Profit and Loss at $2 224,840.18. PASSENGER DECLINE LESS By KF. W. PATTERSON. Total credited to profit and loss during the year 1925 by the Wash- ington Railway & Electric Co. in- creased $1,966,804.11 to $2,224,- 840.18, according to report of the president to stockholders yesterday in their annual meeting. Gross earnings from operations were $4,775,284.81 and regular div- idends from Potomac Electric Pow- er Co. brought this item to $5,800,- 785.42 for the year. Operating ex- penses, including depreciation, taxes and miscellaneous’ charges, totaled $3,915,958.77, and with the addition of interest on funded and unfunded debt, payment of divi- dend. on 5 per cent preferred stock and the regular dividend on com- mon stock, this item is increased to $5,396,558.89, heaving a balance of income for the year just ended and credited to profit and loss of $404,- 226.53. The latter item was in- i creased $2,880,000 by receipt of ‘the railway’s proportion of the im- | pounded fund from Potomac Elec- 'tric Power Co., under decree of court, out of earnings for the pe- riod from August 1, 1917, to De- cember 3 1924, and by $240,613 from miscellaneous items, but was ‘later reduced $1,300,000 by pay- iment of a special dividend of 20 per ‘cent to compensate for the lean lyears when dividends were sus- pended. Aside from the regular and spe- the Potomac | Electric Power Co., no income was | received by the Washington Rail- way & Electric Co. on its invest- ' 34 | mente in stocks of subsidiary com- % | panies. During the year the company’s 'system carried 101,829,572 passen- ‘o.| gers, out of which number 24,323,- 936 were transported on transfers, leaving a total of 77,505,636 reve- nue passengers. This was a de- crease in revenue passengers of 281,039, or only about one-third of 1 per cent, as compared with 1924. ‘“‘This relatively small decrease in revenue passengers, as compared to that suffered annually since 1919,”’ said President Ham, ‘‘leads us to believe that the downward trend of traffic has about reached its limit,’’ ,and he gave it as his opinion the continuing increase in the use of privately owned automobiles has been the largest contributing cause to the decrease in passengers car- ried. The number of automobiles now registered in the District is '116,652 as compared with 44,631 six years ago, Revenue passengers carried from 1919 to the end of 1925 are pre- sented herewith: Decrease as Compared With Previous Year.

On October 25 the company offered to consumers and employes 20,000 shares of preferred stock, series 1925. It was oversubscribed more than 6% times. During the past year 54,024 ap- plications for~refund on electric light bills were rendered and paid within the period from August 1, 1917, to Decenvber 31, 1924, re- funding to the consumers $2,297,- 655.44, and payments will continue as claims are filed and proven. On January 1, 1925, $750,000 Potomac Electric Power Co. general debenture 6s and on February 1, 1925, $1,850,000 Metropolitan Rail- road first mortgage 5 per cent bonds matured, funds for which were tem- obtained from the com- pany’s treasury. The Public Utili- ties Commission has given authority to issue and sell $750,000 Potomac Electric Power Co. general and re- funding mortgage, series ‘‘C,’’ 5% per cent 30-year gold bonds, to re- imburse the company for the retire- ment of the general debentures and to issue and sell $1,850,000 Wash- ington Railway & Electric Co. gen- eral and refunding mortgage 6 per cent 10-year gold bonds to reim- burse the treasury for the retire- ment of the Metropolitan first 5s. The total outstanding bonded in- debtednes of the Washington Rail- way & Electric Co. and its subsid- iaries, including the Potomac Elec- tric Power Co., was on December 31, $26,282,900, which added. to $15,000,000 capital stock of the parent company and $2,093,750 outstanding stock of subsidiary companies, makes the total out- standing capitalization $43,376,650. This excludes bonds purchased for the sinking funds and for tempo- rary investment. Employment was given to 2,979 persons during the year by the carrier and subsidiary companies with payroll for 1925 totaling $4,659,090.71, an increase of $377,- 843.52 over the preceding year. In concluding his report, Mr. Ham had nothing to say with re- gard to the possibility of a merger of the railroad properties with those of the Capital Traction Co., but re- peated what was said in the annual report of 1919 on this subject, as follows: ‘‘Such a merger should, in our judgment, include the railroad lines of our companies and the Capital Traction Co., located within the State of Maryland as well as within the District, and should be combined with a plan for service at cost providing a reasonable re- urn upon the value of the prop. erty and at the same time insuring the car rider service at cost.” Doolittle Is Elected. Election of the board of directors resulted in the addition of F. W. Doolittle, vice president of the North American Co. to that body, succeeding Emory L. Coblentz, who declined to stand for reelection. With the new member the board as constituted for 1926 is as follows: Charles J. Bell, Woodbury Blair, Edwin C. Brandenburg, Daniel J.

Main 4884 {N00 me SELL CERTAIN STOCKS On November 8 I ennounced in several papers that stocks had reached top prices and intimated that the Bull Market was finished. We were then selling certain Oil Stocks, Motors, Steels et al. and bave been selling them short on all rallies and rebounds since that date. We have gar- nered a rich harvest of profits and expect bigger ones. I am at my best when di- recting a Bear campaign to puncture watered and inflated stocks. This is not my first campaign, as thousands of slaugh- tered bulls in Oil Stocks, Motors, Steels, etc., can testify. Now, if you: are etill holding stocks bought. at fictitious prices, dispose of them at once and join us in our campaign against inflated and watered stocks. When -Corporations cut their pie into small parts and sell each piece at a price equal to the value of the whole pie, it’s time to do some selling. ACT!

Publie utilities, which continued dil- rectly influenced by the various ar- rangements for mergers and consoli- dations, as well as by recently-an- nounced readjustment of capitaliza- tion and large stock dividends, travel- ed over a wide range. Many made advances of 5 to 10 oints in the first half of the. week, but reacted after that period, w hen other trading froups, including the Stock FEx- change, became acutely unsettled and irregular. again, some issues showing pro- nounced strength. The chief force consisted of the further reduction in the ou'ttput of crude. oil, and the in- dications of advances in crude oil and petroleum products coming co- incident with decreased production and increased consumption. This sit- uation attracted attention to develop- ment work In many fields, including the Panhandle, of Texas, in which there has been heavy dhereases in land values, including the properties owned or controlled by Gibson Qil. Over 90 wells are now in process of drilling ip that territory. Tropical Oils were also in urgent demand. American Maracaibo making a new high record. Humble Oil, after its recent display of strength, was in supply in large volume, and yielded over 6 peinte to below 90. Standard Oll, of Indiana, was in steady de- mand in the first few days, when it rose OVer 2 points to above 68, but when the market became irregular, lost about half its gain. United Gas ryt, Ay ement was a fea- ture in the utility group, advancing 14 points to above 134. Lehigh’ Power had an advance of 17 points to above 2.37, and then declined 10 Northern Ohio Power was heavily traded all through the week, advanc- ing over 7 points to above 26, and then having.a sharp reaction. Glen Alden Coal yielded 14 points to 150% on the announcement of the failure of ithe miners’ conference; and Lehigh Valley Coal, which had ‘been strong for a time, dropped from 44 to 40. Bond. sales were on an ex- tremely large scale, over 100 differ- ent issues being dealt in daily. ee CURB MARKET REVIEW. The oil stocks were heavily traded | points.

NAGER SEEKING 3-YEAR CONTRACT TO INSURE FUTURE ‘Preparations at Standstill Pending Salary Agreement, Declares Pilot—St. Louis Called Only Trading Possibility—Be- lieves Team Again Will Win Flag. By FRANK H. YOUNG. HE sooner Manager Bucky Har- fith come to terms for the com- ing season, the better it will be for the Washington ball club. In 'a letter which the writer receive ‘yesterday from the Nats’ | pilot, he makes no bones of the fact that he is’ making no plans for his | ‘team for the 1926 campaign and ‘does not intend to until his own l case is settled. | Bucky also lets it be known for ithe first time that he has asked for | ‘a contract covering a three-year pe- lriod. He admits that his figure is ‘high, but points to the fact that, ‘under his leadership, the club has made plenty of money and he be- future for the 'years. Bucky also points out that the elimination of ‘‘this /vear worry” as regards salary will enable him to give better service to the club. D rumors involving the Na- tionals, judging from Harris’ letter, he expects to stand pat with his 1925 combi- nation. Some time ago, it was exclusively stated in The Post that he and Manager George Sisler, of the Brownies, had their heads together discussing a trade which would bring Pitcher Joe Bush and Outfielder Johnny Tobin here. this own em ESPITE continued trade The final | Stanley admits that he has been ‘after these players, and still is, but 'states that ‘“‘the players I have to ‘offer do not seem to appeal and I | dare say nothing will develop.’ He also volunteers the information that he considers St. Louis as his ‘only ‘‘trading possibility.’’ While many fans seem to be wor- rying about the ancient ‘‘soup- bones’’:of several of the Harrisian pitchers, their pilot expresses con- fidence that ‘‘there is life in our old boys yet,’’ predicts that the team will be in the pennant fight right down to the finish, and ‘‘will not be surprised if we land on top.”’ As Manager Harris’ letter un- doubtedly will prove interesting |reading to Washington fans, here ‘it is in full: “Your letter of the Sth at hand and was indeed very welcome. | ‘have talked with Sisler several 'times in an effort to land Bush and ‘Tobin, but the players I have to offer do not seém to appeal and, | ris and President Clark Grif-| young | lieves that he is entitled to insure next few) year-to-| ' However, I intend to keep trying. | St. Louis, as I now see it, is the only trading possibility. “IT do not know what Mr. Griffith 'has in mind regarding Adams.

P.). |The Belmont futurity, autumn rac- ing classic for 2-year-old thorough- vpreds, Will have a value in excess of $130,000 for 1928 and as such will be the richest stake event ever contested for in country, the West Chester Racing association disclosed today. The futurity last fall, won-by Pompey, had a value of approximately $75,000. A record entry for the juvenile classic is as- sured.

SEVERE court test faces the laws legalizing horse racing in Maryland next Thursday in Baltimore when Federal Judge Morris A. Soper will heaxg, a motion to dismiss the petition of Robert M. Williams, of New York, to abolish the pari-mutuel system of wagering in vogue in the State. The petition also involves the le- gality of the Maryland Racing Commission which governs the sport. Williams is the tempted to open up a track in connection man who. at- new with race | the | Laurel count? fair last fall, but was) compelled to abandon his plan be-| cause the betting. is beseeching the courts to wipe racing commission re-, In re-| out the pari-mutuel machines and | the racing body. | The State government and the) Maryland, Laurel, Bowie and Havre de Grace, standing shoulder to shoulder in fighting Williams’ petition. The State because it will mean the loss of several hundreds of thousands of dollars annually in revenues if it is upheld, and the tracks be- enuse the abolition of the pari- mutuel machines would virtually force them to close up. 7 State is illustrated by the ' fact that the taxes im- posed on the tracks last year amounted to approximately $700,000. As this figure repre- sents roughly about 5 per cent of the .money that passed through the “iron men” dur- ing the year the anxiety of the tracks can be appreciated. These tracks operated with bookies for years, but their success was meager compared to that which they have enjoyed since the machines were tn- stalled. are HE importance to the Judge Soper is confronted with a delicate task at the hearing on Thursday. If he grants the motion of the defendants, the case will end and by his ruling the legality of the racing commission and pari- mutuel betting will have been up- held. <As may deny the motion so that it can be tried on its merits.

The outcome of the case is being élosely watched at Annapolis, the seat of the legislature, The racing commission and the laws creating it have often been attacked when the question of racing has ~- been under discussion, but the Williams case marks the first time the courts have been asked to decide upon it. N refusing to permit Wililams IT to install -betting machines at the Laurel county fair track, the commiasion took the attitude that the State has enough racing. Hach of the four-mile tracks are allowed 28 days a year, and three half-mile tracks are allowed five days annually. In the opinion of the commission the State is lable to be surfeited with the sport if it sanctions any more meet- ings. Outside of the merits of this particular case, there are few who | within reasonable limits, At present, } | with long meetings in the summer and fall, the State has enough rac- ing and additional meetings and the extension of dates would only work an injury on the sport, though ‘the track operators no doubt would welcome them.

Already the situation has reached a point of saturation where a ~-shortage of horses and of capable jockeys has been acutely felt and with courses opening little relief can be anticipated. Unless the racing organizations ret together and formulate some plan of regulation where conflicting dates can be eliminated, a turf war during the coming season is not entirely improbable. Such an event will only react to the harm of the sport, as the spectacle of promoters scrambling for their dollars does not tend to promote public confi- dence and patronage in any branch of sport. : Coral Gables Eleven Downs Giants, 14-13, Coral Gables, Fla., Jan. 16 (By | P.).—The Coral Gables snatched victory from New York Giants in a professional football game here this afternoon ‘in the last few minutes of play.

The game was played on a snow- covered field that was ingeniously marked off with coal dust by David Adamson, coach of the home team. The little Britishers gave one of | the cleverest exhibitions of soccer kicking and passing witnessed this | season. Composed mostly of boys under 18, of developing into an organization that will give a few of the unlimited élevens a battle in another year. Army Medical Center put up a fairly good battle in the first half, | holding the visitors to two goals while it was scoring one. The Reserves opened the game twrith some clever passing that car- fied the ball near the soldiers goal but Dave Adamson kicked out of | danger and started a drive that re- sulted in the first score of the game. Day, of the Embassy, tried to send the sphere further from the danger zone but his kicked dropped at the feet of Morris who scored with ease for Army. FTER the Soldiers’ scored A the British kickers rallied : and pressed hard. A fierce onslaught on the Center goal re- sulted in a corner kick, which curr executed to perfection, his well aimed boot sending the ball to the mouth of the goal, where Collins was waiting. The latter player sent the ball over with the equalizing score. .

eos ee + a te | British Hee Scant Hope Of Winning Viderane Have Good Record in Previous M atches. Young Blood Should | Increase Powers of Americans. — HENRY LITCHFIELD WEST. By ILL the United. States retain W possession of the Walker cup? This is the question uppermost in golfing circles, now that the American team has been selected. It is an inquiry which nine out of .every ten experts will answer in the affirmative. It would undoubtedly add greatly to the interest of the competition if Great Britain could win it for the first time, this year, but the odds are apparently against this out- come. The Walker cup, first of all, is an international trophy donated in 1920 by George Herbert Walker, a New York banker, who, during that vear was president of the United States Golf association. When it was first offered, world-wide invi- tations for a competitive event were issued, but thus far Great Britain is the only country which has provided a team for tourna- ment play. Competition is based upon two ball and four ball matches, each match counting one*point, and as there are eight players, there is a total of twelve points to each con- test. The opposing teams’ have met three times, first, in 1922 at rae National links, Southampton, L. second, at St. Andrews in ery and, third, at Garden City, L. L, in 1924. Fach tournament has re- sulted in a victory for the Ameri- can team, in each case a one-sided affair except at St. Andrews, where Ouimet, by a remarkable comeback, managed to end all-square in his match with Roger Wethered, and Dr. Willing brought victory to the Americans by defeating Murray on the seventeenth green, when, up to that stood 5 to 5. At no other time has the cup even been in danger. the American HIS year team presents a fine com- bination of golfers who have been through the experi- ences of Walker cup matches together with new players who have come into prominence since the last competition in 1924. Gardner, who has won match in which he played Walker cup contests; Bobby and Jesse Guilford, who nave the Same record; Francis Ouimet., who somehow or other always does well when he plays on British soil, and Jess Sweetser are the stand-bys in the combination. As far as the record is concerzed, Sweetser is the one weak link in this chain. Defeated by Hooman at Southampton in 192 by Cyril | every in the Jones Tolley. at St. Andrews in 1923, and | | Fort Sie Juniors ‘Down Tremonts, 51-36 by Michiel Scott at Garden City in 1924, he has still to emerge suc- cessfully from a single contest. He'§ played well during the early part of | was one of the fortunate | last vear, sixteen to qualify at Oakmont and was then smashed to smithereens in the second round by Watts Gunn, whose errorless 71 put Sweetser into the discard by the wide margin of 10 up and 9% to play. Perhaps this year Sweetser will get his re- venge upon his British opponents. The new blood in the to be more than merely Von Elm, winner of every coast title, runner-up to Bobby Jones at Merion and second in the recent Los Angeles open, ‘s one of the most vigorous exponents of the helpful.

OLAND MACKENZIE, R only. 18 years of age, lacics experience—he has been playing golf only three or four years—but he has demonstrated that he has the stamina to go thrqugh gruelling battles, as witness his 37-hole battle against Von Elm at Merion and his winning the qualification medal at Oakmont. As for Watts “Gunn. also a strip- ling, it can be said of him that he is a golfing wonder and possesses a temperament which does not al- low him to be frightened, no mat- ter whom his opponent may be. Altogether, the American team seems to comprise an almost ‘unbeatable aggregation. Even if it should be found necessary to use one or more of the five substitutes who have been named, the team will not be greatly weakened. Mar- ston’s record in Walker cup match play is all square, one victory and one defeat; Clark Corkran is a tower of strength: Rotan, who won the only match in which he has played, at St. Andrews in 1923, and who negotiated Pine Valley in a marvelous 70; Harrison Johnston, many times champion in his North- west section; and, finally, Chandler Egan, make up a notable quintet. Egan must be well over 40 years old, for 22 years have elapsed since he first won the national amateur championship at the Chicago Golf club in 1904, but of late he has been playing remarkable golf in the Pa- cific northwest. If there is one thing for which he is more famous than anything else, it is tha wen- derful manner in which he plays fron shots out of the rough.

Carpentier has come to be | recognized as one of the world’s greatest authorities on the flavor and texture of European and Amer- ican canvases, and he performs his ‘inspections with such picturesque | grace that he receives large fees 'for “his occasional services in this overcrowded profession. He made his reputation the day he inspect- ed a canvas in Jersey City, N. J. “Ah,” M. Carpentier exclaimed, | | cé a genuine vanilla canvas!’’ And Rickard paid him $200,000. M JARPENTIER has * not decided whether to perform his next in- spection for Rickard York, for nm New a syndicate of mil- Nonaire easter egg designers in California, or for the Messrs. | Blaufus, Kline and Black, of Jersey City, who conduct their salon under the title of the Four Horsemen of the Applesauce. Tex Inasmuch as most noisseurs require /an assistant, canvas con- the services of Rickard has submit- ‘ted the names of five desirable ‘helpers and has asked M. Car-| pentier to select his man.. The as- | Sistants Suggested by Rickard are | ‘Paul Berlenbach, Jack Delaney, | | Willie Stribling, Eddie Huffman | ;| and Ad Stone. | On a former occasion when he 'arrived in this country, M. Carpen- | 'tier was very difficult to interview. 'There was much blatting of tug ‘whistles and baying of steamboat whoopers and cheering and such as) | that, and, anyway, M. Carpentier’s | lcommand of the English language)! | Was confined to ‘How much you, ipay?’’ and “IT not speak those E-eng- | leesh.”’ But 'on the occasion of this re- turn to America he smiled for the |'cameras only to discover they were ‘trained on J. P. Morgan, a connois- ;seur of another sort of canvases and ,| two or three homing lady stars of dene tongue-tied tintypes. On that former occasion he fre- paired at once to a rose-embowered | manse on Long island and there, be- ihind an entanglement of barbed lwire, hung with «signs reading, “Keep off those grass,’ he invited the fourth and all other estates to favor him with their absence. HIS time, M. Carpentier Si chattered slangily on the | docis -and intimated he would be at his hotel all after- noon. He was traveling alone. Furthermore, his manager, M. Francois Descamps, having re- mained in Paris to attend to the shipment of Paolino, a joint pos- session of M. Carpentier and M. Descamps. It would seem the firm is having hnding a suitable 'trade name for M. Paolino, who was ‘the Pyrenees. It is always desirable ito call a prizefighter after some un- j | pleasant fauna and there have been ‘ever so many lions in the wrestling ' profession. Luis Angel Firpo ! | usurped the sign of Tarsus the bull, | Quintin Romero called himself thd Wolf of the Andes, Paul Berlenbach ig mentioned as the Astoria Ox, and Deacon Flowers, of Georgia, is call- ed Tiger. This leaves M. Paolino his choice of dromedary, pig, hippopotamus, ‘possum, goat and a few others, all more or less deficient in picturesque charm: M. Carpentier admits M. Paolino can fight noticeably but he further admits Jack Dempsey can lick both of them. ~~ Paolino has a great sock in his left,’’ M. Carpentier remarked. ‘‘He also hits with his right sometimes, Not a boxer, you know, but a slug- ger, something like Firpo. And he can take it.’’ y E thought Dempsey would H never again be the man he used to be, but in his opinion Dempsey could go into the ring at a huge discount and still be strong enough and rough enough to hammer all the fight out of Harry Wills. “Wills waits; Dempsey rushes ; Demp- sey would get him,” said M. Carpentier. M. Carpentier will go forthwith to California for a short social] visit. Inasmuch as most of the western canvas already has had the expert inspection of Fred Ful- ton, M. Carpentier does not expect to practice his art on the tour. In fact, he is likély to confine himself to one inspection and that one in the new garden here, where some say there is a sarsa- parilla canvas and others that it is lemon flavored. After he has kissed this canvas and collected $30,000 or so M. Carpentier will probably roll over, wink at Tex Rickard and state: “Ah, my favorite, HIAVOE, Duck soup!” wh Leda ee! | ‘-— Bank of W. Washington and Philadelphia Duckpin Girls ooq LOCAL LEAGUES CONTINUE HOT FIGHTS To Battle in5-Game Match Here January 30 By W. CHARLES QUANT. REPRESENTATIVE team of Washington girl bowlers will meet the strong Philadelphia 'team on the Coliseum alleys, No- /vember 30, in the first girl’s inter- city battle this season, according to ‘plans closed by J. B. Baker, the local matchmaker. Ten games will be rolled in all with a return set-to of five with rubberband pins in use in Philadeuphia at a time to. be an- nounced later. Total pins will de- cide the issue. Baker has not as yet selected his local five, but expects to name them from among the Misses Levy, Gulli, Frere, Quigley, Quaites, Bradt, Thomas and Nell. T will be recalled that the Quaker City five gave the locals a close call last sea- son when but 42 pins separated the two at the end of the match. The visitors gained a big lead last season with a 188 triumph on their alleys with the rubberband pins. The Phillies’ manager stated that their team would be picked from among the Misses. Cole, Bilson, Slater, Ruth, Burtis, Franks, Nev- ins and Corrigan. Miss Corrigan has maintained a 137 average this season, while Miss Cole has 132. None of.the squad hamed above are under the 120 mark. Of course this against rub- berband pins. Pin Leaders Meet.

Houses with eastern and foreign connections were more or less iden- tied with today’s wheat selling which took place at times when the on ume of trading was otherwise light and the markét was easily in- fluenced.

Some of the proponents of American adhesion to the international court take exception to the statement that the cove- nant of the league of nations is the con- stitution of the court. They insist that the statute framed by the league is the court’s constitution. The United States Constitution creates a Congress and a Supreme Court. The covenant of the league of nations creates a league and authorizes the league to establish a court. The Constitution authorizes Congress to determine questions of appellate juris- diction in many cases, and to make reg- ulations concerning them, and to direct where trials shall be held for crimes not committed within a State. Congress is also given power to declare the punish- ment of treason. The covenant limits the judicial power of the league court and authorizes the league to refer to it any dispute or question for an advisory opinion. With these exceptions, the league is empowered to form plans: for the court to suit the purposes of the league. * Article III of. the Constitution, which sets up the Federal judiciary, is not the only part of the Constitution which con- trols, limits and directs the judiciary. The entire Constitution constitutes the fundamental law of the Supreme Court. Article XIV of the covenant, which sets up the league court, is not the only part of the covenant which controls, limits and directs the league court. The entire covenant constitutes the fundamental law of the court. Article III of the Constitution does not fix the relations of the States to the United States, or define the powers of the United States. In order to ascertain the supreme law on these and other sub- jects, the Supreme Court must search the other parts of the Constitution. Article XIV of the covenant does not fix the re- lations of nations, or define the powers of the league of nations. In order to ascertain ‘the supreme law on these and other subjects the league court must search the other parts of the covenant. The Constitution provides that treaties can be made only under the authority of the United States. The covenant pro- vides that nations shall not make treaties inconsistent with the covenant. The Su- preme Court has power to determine whether or not a treaty has been made under the authority of the United States. The league court has power to determine whether or not a treaty ‘is in- consistent with the covenant. The Supreme Court owes its existence to the Constitution. The league court owes its existence to the covenant. ~The power which made the Constitu- tion can amend it ahd thereby change the fundamental law.of the Supreme Court. The power which made the covenant can amend it and thereby change the funda- mental law of the league court. i _——— -+ FACTS ABOUT RAILROADS. The president of the New York Cen- tral railroad, who, presumably, knows what he is talking about, told the Buffalo Chamber of Commerce recently that ‘‘one mile of railroad in every four of the New York Central lines is working for the government, and tax collectors get more from the American railroads than: the. _ stockholders.” | This is a situation not peculiar to the New York Central. If the railroads of the country are taken as a whole, it is found that net revenues from. 60,000 miles of lines are completely absorbed by -y the taxgatherers. | ' This matter of taxation of railroads is Mi end Lgrer nae ait \ ae a Oe mywk " 7 .

In wartime, as, —_— -—— of vital concern to the public. It affects efficiency and production and finally con- sumption. For the calendar year ending December 31, 1916, the total accruing taxes of the railroads of the country were $163,450,000; for the calendar year end- ing December 31, 1924, railway tax ac- cruals amounted to $342,459,000. For the last calendar year taxes» were. even higher. In 1924 the total accrued taxes of the railroads were about 76 per. cent of the total operating expenses. Railroad wage expense on account of compensation to employes for the calen- dar year ending December 31, 1916, amounted to about $1,506,000,000; for the year ending December 31, 1924, total wages paid amounted to $2,826,000,000, or a little more than 62 per cent of total expenses. : Nowhere else in the world does a day’s work or a dollar of invested capital pro- duce as much railroad transportation as here in the United States. Experts come here from all over the world to study our railroad systems and find out what we are doing with our locomotives and cars and other equipment. Considering the general level of prices and the cost of production, together with efficiency and dependability, railroad transportation today in the United States is one of the cheapest things the business man can buy. In 1924 the railroads of the country hauled 1,288,000,000 tons of originating freight and received therefor the sum of about $4,500,000,000; and carried about 951,000,000 passengers, receiving about $1,100,000,000 therefor. As a whole, the railroads of the coun- try for several years have had a net reve- nue of less than 5 per cent on a fair valu- ation ; while many did not earn over 4 per cent. The 1920 transportation act re- quires net earnings above 6 per cent to be diverted; one half of the excess to be turned over to the Interstate Commerce Commission as a special aid fund and one half to the railroads for a reserve fund. ~ RUPERT HUGHES. Just what Rupert Hughes thought to accomplish by his attack upon the char- acter of George Washington is not mani- Praise from Rupert may be praise indeed, but disparagement from Rupert carries very little weight when the sub- ject of the attack happens to be the man who was, is, and always will be “‘first in the hearts of his countrymen.” Rupert Hughes is a reserve officer of the army of the United States. George Washington was the commander-in-chief of the United States forces, and if he were alive today Maj. Hughes would be liable to trial by court-martial under the same article of war which was the basis of the accusations against Col. Mitchell. Unlike the former assistant chief of the air service, Maj. Hughes can advance no excuse whatever for his scurrility. An author of his previous standing has no call to attempt to blacken the character of the one man in this world whose mem- ory will be revered by generations of Americans yet unborn. If Americans now or hereafter hear of Rupert Hughes they are very likely to think of him, not as a respectable author, but.as one who deliberately and repeatedly cast asper- sions upon the Father of His Country. How easily a man can tear down his own reputation by his tongue when he wags it in disparagement of another! ee —-}-—------—- -—~ A BLOW AT WAR. “Taking the Profit Out of War” is the text of a remarkable article by Bernard M. Baruch in the January number of the Atlantic Monthly. “An Effectual Means of Discouraging War’ would also be a suitable text for the article. Mr. Baruch’s experience as chairman of the war in- dustries board during the war enabled him to gain an insight into the interre- lation of ordinary peacetime activities with national necessities during war. From that experience he drew. logical conclusions as to the measures which the United States would be forced to adop in case of another world war. x Bearing in mind that such a war draws upon the entire population and all its ac- tivities of production and distribution, Mr. Baruch outlines a plan which would not only “take the profit out of war,” but which, by making abnormal :profits impossible, and by compelling all ele- ments of the population to do their share in the national war task, would impress upon the nation beforehand the tremen- dous responsibility of war, and thus effectually discourage any tenderey to seek war except in self-defersc! In peacetime the fixing of prices by the Mr. Baruch clearly reveals, price fixing | is both wise and necessary; and it must be price fixing all along the line, in order to protect the manpower that serves the industries which maintain the men at the front. The war industries board had reached the point of fixing prices when the a’ mistice intervened. That step would have been inevitable if the war had continued. Mr. Baruch says: If we were to start, in the event of another war, at the place where we were industrially when the world war ended, the President, acting through an agency similar to the war industries board, would have | the right to fix prices of all things as of a date previous to the declara- tion of war when there was a fair peace-time relationship among the various activities of the ‘nation. It would be illegal to buy, sell, serve, or rent at any other than these prices. Brakes would be applied to every agency of inflation before the hurtful process started. An intelli- gent control of the flow of men, money and materials would be im- posed, instead of having the blind panic heretofore ensuing on the first appearance of the frantic demands | of war. Money would be controlled and di- rected like any other resource. Tak- ing the profit out of war is an order- lv and scientific development of the economics and conduct of modern war, necessary to the effective mobi- lization of national resources and in- dispensable to equalizing the _bur- dens of war among the armed and civilian population. , the application of this plan, be- sides making the nation a coherent unit in time of war, would impress upon every class in society a sense of its own responsibility in such event. If it were known that this universal responsibility would be enforced, no class—social, financial or industrial —could fail to understand that, in case of war, it would have to bear its fair share of the burdens in- volved, and would have to make sac- rifices of profit, convenience, and personal liberty correlatively with those made by the soldiers in the field. To this extent the plan would act as a positive deterrent to any hasty recourse to force in an inter- national controversy. . The scientific study of the problem of adjustment of civilian activities to war- time necessities, and especially the study of the system worked out by the war industries board in actual war conditions, has been provided for by Mr. Baruch in his generous provision for a course of lectures in the Page school of interna- tional relations at Johns Hopkins uni- versity. Mr. Baruch, with still broader vision, is proceeding to make similar ar- rangements at leading universities in Great Britain, France, Germany, Italy and Japan. As a practical effort which appeals to individuals of all nations, Mr. Baruch’s plan promises to do more to discourage war than all the leagues and courts that have been set up by govern- ments. 2 THE BOTANIC GARDEN. It was in the year 1820 that, following the suggestion of George Washington in 1796, the Botanic Garden was established on the five acres of land bounded by Pennsylvania and Maryland avenues and First and Third streets. For 105 years that square of real estate has been occu- pied by the conservatories and offices which have served the purpose of hun- dreds of the schoo] teachers of Washing- ton in explaining their lessons in botany to the children of the District. In the conservatories are housed thousands of tropical and semitropical plants which represent the effort of scores of years of travel and study in foreign lands and the expenditure of hundreds of thousands of dollars. -The Botanic Garden, located under the dome of the Capitol, is visited annually by thousands of Americans, and to all lovers of plant life it is a source of constant pleasure. It is the chief adorn- ment and the proper setting of the Capi- tol itself. It is because of the ideal location that this particular section of the park system of the, National Capital attracts more visitors every day of every week of the year than any other portion of the original “Federal District.” If placed in a more remote spot the Botanic Gar- den would be missed by the majority of the Capital’s constantly increasing visi- tors. After more than a century this loca- tion of the Botanic Garden has become distasteful to some of those officious med- dlers who are constantly on the alert to air their artistic ideas and to try their civic experiments upon the National Capital. It is proposed now that an “ex- pert” be brought in from the outside to smell out and locate a “permanent site” for the Botanic Garden. There are sev- eral very attractive sites offered—attrac- | tive from the standpoint of the real es- | | —* ~«# “ ~ ‘ pA io / ] - om» = A LF Led halk A Vd we cl —+-rer Ose 4 dA / p ag et 533 shee PF /, ’ eed aea- . ‘ ’ 4 EEPROM AER Y, 4 7 da 4 ent, ¥ \ " DOO ie { , VEEP. «6 . c » 6 - ‘ “es As : \\ ™ ° ff, 4 #08, | A \ = | fag.

There are other parcels of land in the market, which are undesirable for residential purposes, but which offer grand oppor- tunities as exchanges for some of the “surplus funds” which belong to the Dis- trict, and which the District committees seem willing to spend for any purpose which the people of the District do not desire. Just why there should be this attempt to remove the Botanic Garden at this time can only be explained by the absorb- ing desire of certain owners of unpro- ductive real estate to unload their hold- ings on the District or the Federal gov- | ernment. A few years ago President Harding approved a resolution formally | transferring the James Creek canal site to the garden. This strip of land runs east from the present site and thence south to the War College. It juts upon lands in southeast Washington which were formerly truck gardens, with ex- cellent soil, and that portion which is not already owned by the government and the District can he acquired at a very low price. The total area available in this section is upwards of 100 acres, ‘and under authority of Congress one new conservatory has already been erected at a cost of $35,000. Looking out from the tholus of the dome of the Capitol to the northward the visitor sees the magnificent architecture of the Union station and the Postoffice, while the vista of East Capitol street ‘with the Congressional library in the foreground is restful and attractive. To the west through the Mall the pleasing prospect of the Washington monument and the Lincoln memorial is outlined against the hills of Virginia; but to the southeast there is nothing but an aggre- gation of shacks and shanties. The éx- tension of the Botanic Garden toward the War College would do away with these eyesores and give the people of the south- eastern section of the city some of the proposed artistic improvements which have been so generously spread through | the more fortunate northwestern section. They are entitled to some of the improve- ments the cost of which they share, and the extension of the Botanic Garden reservation in that direction offers about against the German government.” the only chance for such a consummation. | Gentlemen of the District committees: | Abandon the idea of calling in those high- | | been a lack of uniformity in determining 99 priced ‘‘outside experts;” save their fees and use the money saved in the extension | of the Botanic Garden toward the War | College. George Washington and Pierre | L’Enfant were somewhat famous “ex- | perts’” in designing landscapes. They | fixed upon the foot of the Capitol as the | location of the Botanic Garden and, if the chance were offered, doubtless 95 per cent | | of the people who visit the garden would | favor the Washington-L’Enfant choice as | against that of any modern “expert from | the outside.” * THE COUZENS INVESTIGATION.» | largely What is known as the Couzens inves- | tigating -committee, beginning its ses- sions in March, 1924, nearly a year and a half, gathering testi- mony covering about 4,175 pages of printed matter, has made its preliminary report and recommendations. The committee was authorized to in- vestigate alleged abuses in the adminis- tration of the taxable incomes, the ad- ministration of estate taxes and taxes imposed on mining, oil and manufactur- ing corporations, and the deductions for depletion, and the amortization of war facilities. The preliminary report, recently made public, deals with the question of amor- tization and depletion and alleged irreg- ularities. mortization means the al- lowances in determining net income for taxable purposes, allowed to be made by the internal revenue bureau for ex- penditures made by an individual or corporation for war purposes. The tax law of 1921 in calculating incomes and profits for taxing purposes, permitted the bureau to deduct ‘a reasonable amount” expended on or after April 6, 1917, “for the production of articles con- tributing to the prosecution of the war All claims were required to be made for the taxable years 1918, 1919, 1920 or 1921. There were 3,512 claims for amortization amounting to $672,000,000. The report of the Couzens committee charges’ dis- crimination. Depletion under the law of 1921 means that the bureau is permittgd to deduct, in the case of mines, oil and gas wells and other natural deposits and timber, what shall be “a reasonable allowance.” It is charged in the report that there has depletion; that tax refunds amounting to $459,000,000 were made by the bureau from July 1, 1921, to April 30, 1925. The original internal revenue system was started by Alexander Hamilton. | It was revived to help carry on the war of 1812. From 1814 to the outbreak of the © civil war there was no recourse to in- ternal taxation. The present system of internal revenue was created in 1862; and with many ad- | ditions and modifications has continued until the present day. Until about 1913 the sources of internal revenue were liquor and tobacco, although there was an income tax from 1863 to ' 1871 as well as a succession tax and vari- ne | ous excise taxes. and extending | From 1863 to 1914 the government’s receipts from interna] revenue averaged between $150,000,000 and $300,000,000. The highest amount was $380,000,000 in 1914. The world war and its needs made the internal revenue bureau not only im- portant but absolutely essential to the government. The income tax not only increased the work and the revenue of this bureau enormously, but swelled its annual receipts to $512,000,000 in 1916, to $809,000,000 in 1917, and to $5,407,- 000,000in 1920. It became the most im- portant revenue-producing agency of the government. In 1920 it produced about , three-quarters of the Federal revenue. In 1925 it produced about two-thirds. When the world war was over, the bureau, especially the income tax unit, was swamped with puzzling and disputed problems, touching the administration of the law. The adjustments involved engineers, experts, accountants and at- torneys by the hundreds. The tax laws of 1918 and 1921 clothe the bureau and the commissioner wit an immense amount of discretion—more so than almost any law on the statute books. It is not surprising that differ- ences of opinion have arisen as to the ad- ministration of the law; but no one con- nected with the investigating committee charges that any dishonesty or graft has been revealed. While this investigation has caused considerable discussion and comment, it is safe to say it will not reveal irregu- larities commensurate with the. noise - created. The best service rendered by \ the investigation will be more careful ~~ scrutiny of men and methods where wide — discretion is given to officials. The, 4 broad plans and proceedings of the — bureau have been found to be sound, “se . £22 * m ge «. wis “ee 2° > Uae ~ i 4 uj i P ‘ Ree PIS ~ ‘2 ee oie ee eyiee % : : eh hiss a eb aes Ap ee Py Bie 1 at Ud WES on 3 - ‘t } as an

The matter is worthy of attention. In the absence of any special pro- vision for amending the constitution of the court, we must infer the ne- cessity of obtaining the assent to our propositions by each and every government that has registered its acceptance of the protocol present- ed to them by the League of Na- tions. That is the usual rule among cosignatories of a contract; if no other rule be expressed. Appar- ently the refusal of the most in- significant among these govern- ments would defeat our efforts and render useless the grave actions now pending in the Senate. This consideration, however, may be deemed unimportant. We shall have made the friendly gesture. We shall have taken some part in four out of five of the ‘“‘new eras” which have blessed the world since 1915. The senators who are devoting so much of their time and talent to this discussion, doubtless fully under- stand that when the two-thirds ma- jority shall have been registered in favor of adhesion to the court, with reservations, their labors may be brought to naught by Haiti or. Li- beria. But I doubt that the public so understands the case. President Harding's utterances On this subject are as follows: In his message to the Senate February 24, 1923, he says: “These conditions, there is good reason to believe, will be acceptable to the signatory powers, though nothing definitely can be done until the United States tenders adhesion with these reservations. Manifest- ly the executive can not make this tender until the Senate has spoken its approval.’’ On the 24th of April, 1925, Presi- dent Harding ina speech to mein-} bers of the Associated Press, gath-| ered in New York at a luncheon, said: “It was nol some proposal not be carried make couid none desirable 1oO abroad thai out: indecad would be considered. and it was not, pleasing to think of asking the Sen- ate’s consent to a program to which the nations concerned would agree. discreetly, the situation was thought out over a considerable: period of time. and when satisfied that there was an appropriate course of action without connection with the league, Senate consented, I to the court the Senate’s the adherence and asked mrovided proposed protocol, consent.”’ Would it not be well to have from the executive an up-to-date state- ment as to whether we are still sure that all of the present supporters of! the world court are ready to con- tract with us on the basis of our reservations’? Is the understanding clear? Were the proposed reserva- tions submitted to them in the exact language the Senate will (or must?) adopt? ‘Informal’ and ‘‘discreet”’ exchanges between nations have of- ten proved most deceptive. We are all fallible. There are three substantial reser- vations in our proposals: One, giv- ing us the right to participate with the council and assembly of. the league in the election of judges. Another, the right to have our Con- gress determine our contribution to \the expense of the court instead of /rhaving this determined for us by the ¢ouncil or by the court itself. (There is some confusion on this point in the statutes of the court.) The third is that the statutes of the court shall not be amended without our consent. The substance of this last condition may be inferred, from President’ Harding's statements above cited. as being already ap- Plicable to all who now support the court. In any case we seem to be proposing the very rule which 1 suppose to exist. and which gives Haiti and Liberia the veto power that I have indicated. They will, apparently, forever retain it as to all proposed chatiges of the court statute. Long before all the big fish and the little fish swimming in the sea of the league can act upon our pro- posals, the council] of the leagué will have exercised its functions un- der article 35 of the court statutes. Germany will have applied for ad- mission to the league, and under the Locarno agreements, will also be supposed to have ‘‘joined the court.”” Now Germany was an out- castawhen the protocol was first drawn. She is not mentioned in the ‘“‘Annex to the Covenant” re- ferred to below. Article 35 reads as follows: “The court shall be open to the members of the league and also to the states mentioned in the annex to the covenant.”’ ; “The conditions under which: the court shall be open to other states shall, subject to the special pro- visions contained in treaties in force, be laid down by the council, but in no case shall such provision piace the parties in a position uf in- equality before the court.’ ; _A wide fleld.of action is thus open to the council by the general right to fix ‘conditions under which,”’ &c. Under the cloak of this provision the council may see fit to make con- siderable changes in the statute just as we have seen fit to make ' eertain demands as price for our entrance. : No perfectly definite line "can be drawn between the fixing of conditions for Germany and the - modification of the existing stat- | utes. » 1p any case, innocent as this lan- approach the court, the coun- ef} of the league may bargain with es! as ‘we are now to bargain with Haiti-Liberia & Co. < OSCAR T.

It was kpown to the world = as *“Shoo’s.”” One of the proprietors was a man who never tasted Jiquor in his life, but that did not prevent him from naming any one of brands offered across the bar. with- out the aid of a label. He gave a demonstration of this uncanny abil- ity in the presence of a dozen sen- tors and officers of the army and navy, as well as a number of news- paper men.

Corresponding figures were marked on the bottles, from which small samples were poured into the numbgred giasses. “Gus” was blindfolded. drops of.the liquor from one glass into his cuppéd hand.

And writing of these tests of the sense of taste and smel! developed to the nth degree, I am reminded of another more recent but of a somewhat different charac- ter which was the outcome of a dispute as to the ability of an epi- cure to tell the difference in taste between two hams, one to be cooked in champagne and the other in ink. Frank Conger, who still resides in Washington, and who wa. postmas- ter of this city in Arthur’s admin- istration, disputed the assertion of Toner Richardson when the latter undertook to describe the delight- ful addition to the flavor that a ham obtained when boiled in cham- pagne. Conger scoffed at the idea. A bet resulted. Two ‘‘premium’”’ hams ot exactly equal weight were secured. A sta- tioner furnished the ink and a wine agent supplied the champagne. Two gas stoves were set up and two ket- tles of like. dimensions were brought into service. After the pre- scribed number of hours the hams were removed from the liquids and carefully carved, so that there was no visible stain from the ink; which had discolored the meat near the bone of the Conger ham. Then the jury, consisting of about 100 patrons of the place, were invited to decide the bet. Each was fur- nished with two small pieces, one from each ham, and not a man jack of them could honestly say that he could ‘detect the slightest difference. D OBSERVER.

To the Editor of The Post——Sir: 'Your-article in the ‘‘Magazing Sec- tion” on ‘Art Cripples’’ sffikes a responsive ¢hord in the heart of every true artist, and a thorough discussion of “modernist’’ art, pro and con, would educate the rgblic to a proper realization of what true art is and tend to eradicate the fad- dist and extremist from the art world. : The man who goes to extremes in eating is called a glutton or ‘gourmand; in drinking, a sot, a drunkard; and in other directions, we have the roues, the jazz flapper, the publicity-seeking modern flap- | pers who go to the verge of in- decency to get’ into the papers, showing as much of the body as will “get by,” With no other pur- | pose than showing it. Savages, in\warm.countries, go naked or almost so, and growing up that way, are accustomed to it and think nothing of it: and yet they are or were strictly moral and |remained so till polluted by the | dregs of our civilization.) It must be the spirit of the age to break away,from the rational |standard of living conventional or unconventional; rushing madly into anything that will bring a ‘‘thrill’”’ and quick results, instead of the steadier pleasures of self-improve- ment. So it is with these artists who go ‘off their, heads,’ seeing nothing but a protracted period of ‘earnest work to attain success in| true art. They adopt some of these fads which only a diseased mind 'could entertain. For instance, Miss Shackleford says: ‘Distortion has more to do with rhythm than any other fac- tor.” She makes, an arbitrary statement, but does not explain why. She hides her inability be- hind this: “The inner meaning is as difficult to put into words as the emotional expressions of a symphony.”’ Rhythm does not necessitate the use of bad drawing, disregard of perspective, daubs of meaningless color, or, in sculpture, block forms, no more’ than harmony is made up of diseords nor peace composed of _anger and strife. The beautiful is ‘/not accomplished by using a series of ugly forms ‘and colors. Any child with a tendency for drawing can do as well and we do not expect any more of them, but adults who have had the advantage of an art education to so pervert their art ideals and teachings so flagrantly must be either insane or ‘wholly insincere, and I agree with Hans Schuler’s decision to bar such misleading rot from an exhibition held for the purpose of illustrating to the public what good art is or i should be. His stand is one that should be staunchly supported by all true artists and connoisseurs; also art magazines and*® other publications giving space to art, for the exploit- ing of ‘freak art’’ misleads their readers into believing that there is ‘something to such stuff, whereas it Was | be dignified by even a unless it is to expose its should not mention { | fals SS. ead | falseness then he. “‘reg-; “A thing of beauty is a joy for- ‘ever.”’ The fundamentals of art are ‘truth, sincerity and _ simplicity.

To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Those who framed the welfare bill and*are responsible for it and others who. advocate its passage, tell us there will be a great advantage in combining the various’ charity boards in the District\ under one board, namely, the proposed wel- fare board. But in the welfare bill only three boards are mentioned— the Board of Charities, the Board of Children’s Guardians and the Board of the Nationa; Training School for Girls. Eleven institutions are mention- ed in the welfare bill. They are the workhouse at Occoquan, Va.; reformatory at Lorton, Va.; Wash- ington asylum and jail, National Training Schogl for Girls, Gallinger Municipal hospital, Tuberculosis hospital, Home for the Aged and Infirm, municipal lodging house, In- dustrial Home school, Industrial Home School for Colored Children, and Home Training School for the Feeble-Minded. Eight of these in- stitutions are under the Board of Charities, which is a government organization. The two industria] home schools are under the Board of Children’s Guardians. and only children who are wards of the Board of Children’s Guardians are ‘admitted to the two industrial home ‘schools. ‘The third board is the ‘board of trustees of. the National | Training School for Girls. The welfare workers also tell us there is a good deal of waste and /overlapping .in the District chari- ities, and this is}; no doubt, true in ‘some branches of charity work, but what does the welfare board expect 'to accomplish in regard to economy and overlapping of charity work by placing under its control eight mu- nicipal institutions—Jails, hospi- tals, home for the aged and infirm, lodging houses, &c., all adult insti- tutions, with only .gne child-caring agency and another that is a correc- tional institation, particularly as the welfare bill makes no changes from.the present order?

We all are entitled to our pro-and-con opin- ions, but I venture to say that only those who have been in and a part of the regular army are ‘n posi- know what it is all about. May I make a few remarks on the ‘‘Lesson of the Mitchell Case,” same being based on nine years’ service as an officer of the regular army. ' Militarism at bay is the present Gen. Mitchell is merely an able, efficient officer, with suf- ficient rank and independence of his army pay to force a show- down on the question of adequate modern national defense. As an indivdual Mitchell counts but little in this people of over a hundred million, .but his courageous fight ugainst military autocracy concerns every one not énly from the stand- point of the taxpayer, but from the standpoint of fathers and mothers of ‘“‘cannon fodder’’ for the coming years. ‘Cannon fodder” in count- less thousands now slowly melts into the dust and mud of Flanders’ fields. Militarism offers a greater men- ace to the integrity of this repub- lic today than doés soviet Russia, but the average citizen fails to recognize this ‘insidious menace slowly creeping over our fair land, its hungry tentacles reaching here, there and everywhere under universal military training, a lust for power, ever more power, a réligion of force. It reaches into our high s¢hools, our colleges and our universities, even into our graded schools in thé ef- forts to militarize Boy Scouts and similar movements of the young. The Mitchell trial has cost the =) Proposal for Larger Pension to High-Salaried Worker Held Vici- ously Unjust—Favor of Increased Pay Should End When Time for Retirement Comes, Correspondent Says. To the Editor of\The Post—-Sir: The proposition to amend the pres- ent law for retirement of United States civil service employes is of deep interest to me. Under existing economic conditions, there is a cry- ing need of a liberal increase of the various annuity allowances, And since the annuity is bestowed as rn reward for faithful service, it is evi- dent that the age of the beneficiary should not be considered as of such vital importance as,a factor in re- tirement. Optional retirement at ages from 60 to 65 years, if the re- quired number of years of service have been rendered, would be a rea- sonable and beneficent provision. But the proposition to give a high-salaried employe a larger an- nuity at retirement than is bestowed upoh an employe who has served as faithfully on an average salary, 18 viciously unjust. A high salary’ must be regarded as a favor—some- times, I regret to say, an unnierited favor. Nevertheless, it must be re- garded by all as an incident of the active service. But when the re- tirement day arrives that distinctive favor should be discarded. The present law recognizes this just principle by providing that an aver- age salary of $1,200 for the last ten years of service shall constitute the salary requirement to give title to the maximum annuity. That is suf- ficient. Let it stand, but increase the amount of the annuity of each class aS now constituted, after re- adjusting thé age limitations. The plea is made by high-salaried employes, that, since the assess- ment for the annuity fund takes more from them than it does from those of the average-salary class, they should receive more from the fund on retirement. That plea is specious and crafty... In the first place, the employe, favored with a high salary, has much more left for his own use after paying his assess- ment than those of the average-sal- ary have after paying their assess- taxpayers thousands of dollars; it has taken army officers and clerks ‘gins: “The following powers and ) from their legitimate duties to cre- | duties imposed by law upon the | Board of Children’s Guardians shall | be vested in the board, &c.

A serious situation was found in the fact that a large num- ber of. children were shifted from institution to home, or from one home to another many times dur- ing the course of a year. Of the children under care for less than one year, more than one-tenth had been shifted from four to eight times in this short period. Of those under care between one and two years, more than one-third had been shifted from four to twelve times. Two-thirds of those under care from three to four years had been in four to fifteen different lo- cations.”’ / Changes in official authority | brought about consecutive advances in the salary of this clerk, but as in the case of others who were re- tired within two or three years after the retirement system became operative, those increases came too! late to afford him an average basic salary upon which an annuity ex- ceeding $960 can be allowed. Thus it will be perceived that he prevented from obtaining the maximum annuity, $1,200, which will be allowed to hundreds of inferior employes, first, by an in- sufficient average annual basic sal- ary. and second, by deprivation of credit for service of 8 years in excess of the 70 -years required. Thus it will be seen that even labor~ ers now receiving a salary of $1,- 700 will receive annuities of which this clerk will be deprived. It might be worthy of note that the clerk who now performs the duties per- formed by him now receives a salary of $2,200. (Please see tabular statement. ) .

It should be Known, and the fact considered, that before the commissioner of pensions will act upon any application for an an- nuity, he obtains from the depart- ment in which service was per- formed, a report showing the class and quality of the service rendered, and the duration of the period em- ployed.

There is still another lesson to the Mitchell case, and that is a sad one. The lesson is that truth, honor and honesty have no place in the military establishment, land or sea. That is a terrific indictment, but it is true absolutély. Expediency is all military autocracy knows, and intends to know. * * ~* Whether we agree with all that Gen.

Central Stopping Point Urked for Bus and Car Limes at Navy and Munitions Buildings During Morning and Evening Hours. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Endless time, it is thought, would be saved for the thousands of citi- zéns working in the new navy and munitions government buildings in the vicinity of Seventeenth to Twen- ty-first and B streets northwest, and for the pérsons who have to trans- act business in thesé buildings, if a “central” stopping or ‘‘union’’ point.were designated where, be- tween the hours of 9:15 a.m. and 4:15 p. m. and after 5 p. m. daily, all public service buses operating out of this vicinity, and the car line, would: stop. At present five separate com- panies operate services in this ter- ritory. Four of them have their stops each about a half block or a block distant from any one of the others. The Fairfax, Twelfth street and Pennsylvania avenue line, is allowed no stop, though it could prove invaluable were it allowed one, and its schedule known, for quick, official, nonstop service from this section to Twélfth street and Pennsylvania avenue, which we now do not have. Also if the Speedway- Treasury buses were routed via this central point for a 2 cent, or like fare, it would prove invaluable for official and urgent personal busi- ness necessary to be transacted in the vicinity of the Treasury. It is suggested that the logical place for a union stopping point for said four bus lines to ‘‘take on” pas- sengers between designated hours, might be at the little triangle at Eighteenth and B.streets northwest, where the bus of the W. R. & E. Co. now stops, and that the street cars be requested to stop nearer to the corner of Eighteenth and B streets during the hours designated. The triangle could be converted into a circle, or its west end cut away, giving ample room for bus stops and turns: P.M... mént in. the country that annuities should be allowed on the basis of and in proportion to the importance and value of service.rendered.

Otto Torney Simon Favors More Generous Credit for Able anand Worthy Foreigher. \ To the Editor of The Post—Sir: It woulg seem in these times, lead- ing to more gentle adjustments for international amity, that the article in The Post, “America First in Voice Production”’ might be further considered. agen Barriers between peoples are breaking away, acrimonious differ- ences in professions’ are lessening. Let us give credit on a more gener- ous basis than. pro-Americanism, giving to any foreigner a welcome hand if he be worthy, modest and have something of value to impart, The scientific beginning of vocal /art would seem to precede the work or invéstigations of Carlo Emerich or William A. C, Zefffi mentioned in The Post article. It began really with Manuel Garcia, a Spaniard, and a teacher of singing who moved to London from Paris in 1850. By means of the laryngoscope, a little mirror now generally used by voice specialists, Garcia visualized, studied and later wrote elaborately on vocal processes. His best known pupil was Jenny Lind, whose voice he rejuvenated after it had been forced and nearty ruined. Before Garcia's time singing was a matter of empiricism, of Hstening ahd en- couraging the beautiful tone with- out definite scientific knowledge. Such was the basis of teaching of the old Itallan school. Its successes are a matter of tradition, its failures are submerged. Emma Seller, daughter of a Philadelphia physician, was another investigator who probed deeply through scientific methods, (about 1876). She was, for s6me years with the physicist Helmholtz in Ber- lin, and her book, “‘The Voice in Singing’’ made a deep impression. Another scientific investigator was Emil Behnke, a German, liv- ing in London, (about 1890). r 6 6Wy ey Virginia’ Asks “Class ,Legislation”’ for Agriculture; Lower Tariff and Rail Rates and Muscle Shoals Solution is Urged. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Will you allow me to reproduce in The Post some suggestions I made to Congress in my county paper two years ago? My subject was, and is. “Class Legislation and the Farmers.’’ - The first suggestion was ‘“‘revise the tariff so that what farmers 6s- pecially need can come into the United States as cheaply as possi- ble, so that the farmers can buy it as cheaply as possible, and so give us a little agricultural class legis- lation.’’ Second—Reduce railroad rates. For the year 1922 the average net earnings of the railroads. were about 27 per cent higher thafi the preceding year; it was the best for the last ten years. Third—Settle the Muscle Shoals wrangle so that we can buy fer- tilizer cheaper. If a satisfactory arrangement can not be made with an individual to handle this propo- sition, let the government manage it. Although I do not favor gov- ernment management, for the rea- son that the government does not do business economically. Fourth—Abolish utterly] and en- tirely thousands of aeT but ex- pensive government jobs; and let the politicians pay their clection }promises some other way than by getting such jobs for their hench- men. A New York business man said, at a big dinner party, that if half of the governmént employés were discharged and business man- aged as New York business men manage it, things would go on at léast as well as at present, and the government (that means the tax- payers, farmers and all) would save $2,000,000,000 a year. Fifth—Repeal the law concern- ing tax-exempt bonds. All prop- erty should pay fairly for its pro- tection. The chatter about “class legisla- tion’’ does not appeal to me when I recall the Federal reserve act to Behnke, the practical voice trainer, with whom the writer lived for months in London, collaborated in the principal throat physician in London at that time.

Let us suppose Jones and Smith to be in the U. §. civil service here, and each to be 60.years of age. Jones, | years on an annuity of $60 a month. | Smith, receiving a salary of $2,400, in ten vears pays into the retire- ment fund $360, and retires at the age of 70 years on an annuity of $60 a month.

In six months, Smith receives from the lfund all that he had contributed and after that continues to receive $60 & month as long as he lives, from the contributions of those in active service. The question now is, does any disinterested person think for a moment that the exceptional faver Smith received from the U. S. Treas- ury while in active service should be continued to him,in retirement, from the contributions of others in active service, during the remainder of his life? In the eyes of a just retirement law, is any pérson su- perior to another of the same class, in retirement? JOHN R. WERATHERS, Washingtno, D..C. Disrespect Noted of Some Men To- ward Women Suspected of Being Part of Organized Campaign Against Gentler Sex Because of qual Rights Agitation. To the Editor of The Post-—Sir: il should Uke, in a spirit of con- structive criticism, to call the at- tention of your readers to°a con- diiton which must. sooner or later, be rémedied. I refer to a delib- erate and studied attitude of dis- respect toward women which is be- ing practiced .by certain types of men. Women do not expect nor_de- sire to be placed upon a pedestal, but they do feel that their willing- ne&s to take part in and do their duty in civic and social affairs should not make them the target for intentional insults. 4 It is occasionally necessary for me to ride upon the stgeet cars in going to and from work. I am compelled to state that what I have seen makes me ‘unhappy. Women of refinement and culture are treat- ed so abruptly and discourteously by certain kinds of men that one wonders if they never had mothers or sisters of their own. Some of these ‘‘men” really seem to objéct to seeing a woman secure a seat, and would almost go out of their way to prevent it. The above is only one of the many incidents which occur almost every day in our ¢ity. Not long ago I saw a man come through the swinging doors of one of Wool- worth’s stores, and although his hands were free, he deliberately al- lowed the doors to swing back di- rectly upon a woman who was com- ing through with her hands so full of bundles that she could not hold the door, and was actually in dan- ger of physical injury. I could not doubt, from what I saw, that this was done intentionally. A somewhat organized campaign is being carried on by certain types of ‘‘men” to make things disagree- able for women in businégs, in in- dustry and on the street. This, they declare, is because women have “equal rights’’ and should not therefore expect any courtesies, I am unable to understand what is implied by ‘equal rights,” for women, in the main, are still doing the disagreeable and low-paid work. However, if these men have any hope that they can turn back prog- ress, they are even more unfortu- nate than they seem. They will accomplish nothing in the end ex- cept their own‘destruction. These men seem to think that they are making war upon women, but they are, in fact, fighting somethi much bigger. For God is still His world.

A Spaniard, an American, a Ger- | man, surely a variance as to na- i tionality, and until the singing man ‘is created with other media besides ‘lungs, vocal bands and resonating 'cavities, credit will probably be given to these early investigators art. Exception may be taken to Mr. Zarff’s words as quoted: “Physiol- Ogically we ought. to be able to sing as long as we speak.’’ Most artists cease to sing. at least publicly, after a certain maturity. It would seem to be an unforiu- nate condition that as the soul reaches greater heights in maturity through experience, sympathy, love, sorrow, the vocal instrument should deteriorate. Mr. Carlo Emerich’‘s statement that Caruso’s death may may hardly be taken seriously. OTTO TORNEY SIMON, Stoneleigh Court.

To the Editor of The Post-—Sir: I have read with much _ interest your editorials on the subject of the so-called world court.

However, after all said. is the question now before the Senate a Vital one? Should there be a_ twé6-thirds vote, and the treaty be signed, or what is in the nature of a treaty, all the Senate will have done is to designate another inferior court, | 80 far as any questions affecting | the United States is concerned, and | it is questionable whether it will | have done even that, as the action | of both Houses of the Congress is necessary to ‘‘ordain and establish”’ inferior courts. The Constitution seems toler- ably plain on the subject of judi- cial questions and théir determina- | tion. It says, “The judicial power United States shall be vesied in one Supreme Court, and in such inferior courts as the ‘Congress may, from time to time, ordain and establish.’ It then défines what judicial power shall cover, namely: “All cases in law and equity arising under the treaties made, or which #Hhall be made * * * contro- versies to which the United States shall be a party * * * and bé- tween a State or the citizens there- of and foreign states, citizens or subjects.”’ If what the Senate proposes to do means anything, it means es- tablishing. by recognition, a new court by treaty. It seems clear from the above constitutional excerpté, that, act- ing alone, it has no power to os- tablish any court to consider ju- dicial matters. As to any subject affecting this country which might be brought to the attention of the interna- tional) court .by someé_ foreign state, it is hard to imagine any matter or business which’ would not mean a grievance of some kind, either real or imaginary. All grievances, such as come. to the attention of courts, raise an issue, a controversy. either in law or equity, and where such issue, rais- ed before the international. court, affected éither the United States, a State, or any citizen of the United States, it would come within the jurirgiction of the Federal Su- preme Court, as its jurisdiction is defined in the Constitution, and the citizen-——-the State—or the overnment could take an appeal hai the world court to the Su preme Court of the United States. It, anid it alone, ié the court of last resort. . f Such seems to be the clear meaning of the words of the Con- situation. R. B.

Conditions have changed during the last two years, but the farmers are still in the hole. Secretary Hoover recently stated that practically every business in the United States had yielded a satisfactory return during 1925 ex- cept the agricultural busifess. That is just as if you said: “This is a fine house; the carpéts on the floor are’ elegant; the pictures on the wall are beautiful; the interior ar- rangements are up-to-date, but the foundation walls are in a very bad condition,’’ for agriculture is the foundation of our economic strue- ture. Congress seems to be in earnest this time, and Representa- tive Dickerson, of Iowa, is certainly on the right track; but still I ask again my previous question, ‘‘When will the farmérs’ turn come?’’ DABNEY C. HARRISON. Boyce, Va., Jan. 11, 1926. Traffic ‘‘Hysteria’ Seen in Capital. Writer Would “Stagger"’ the Gov- ernment Bureau Hours to Spread Out “Peak Loads” on Street Cars Twice a Day. To the Editor of The Post—-Sir: We seem to be suffering from “traffis hysteria.’’ Let us have less talk about traffic and less traf- tective squad, so that gunmen, bur- glars, sneak thieves and sundry crooks will find it hard going. Let the courts be as ready to mete out stiff sentences to such offenders as to traffic rule violations. We have distorted the relative importance of offenses against the public. At the risk of adding to the con- fusion, let me suggest a few simpli- fications to aid traffic—that is, less rules and obstructions instead of more. 1. Instead of painting ‘‘stop’’ signs on the pavement, move the bad holes in our streets to the stop places and repair the streets be- tween intersections. All holes left over can be moved to our public , golf courses to be used as hazards. | 2. Do away with the bright head- |light regulation. New York city | demands dim lights; why say more’ 3. Do away with the nonsensica! “backing in’’ parking regulation. 4. Remove buttons at one-way street intersections. It is obvious that they are useless. 5. Discontinue’ the rule at Seventeenth Pennsylvania avenue. Electric cars go straight through the _ intersec- tion, so why not other traffic? 6. Move the car stops at Cannec- ticut and Florida avenues northerly and southerly on the west and east sides respectively, so that halted traffic does. not block Florida ave- nue and § street. 7. Put the block signal system in the business district rather than on Sixteenth street. J am thinking of the system in Los Angeles, which is successful. 3 8. Instead of erecting “no park- ing’’ signs provide space for park- ing. The downtown park areas can well be used for this’ purpose. 9. Remove all obstructions from the streets and put white paint and buttons on the pavement where necessary. This refers to car-load- ing patforms, safety isles, the curved areas of Scott circle, the posts and gates’ at Lafayette place and *Pennsylvania avenue and others. The spreets are for traffic and not for otnaments or obstruc- tions. The fact thai «& ¢*mnsen driver swept the lehgth of @ car- loading platform bhows how little value it has. 10. In designating boulevard streets no street with an electric car track should bé secondary. The elettric cars were here first and still carry the bulk of the traffic. Every effort should be made to speed up car schedulés and they should bs given the right of way at all times. If car schedules were better there would be more passengers and fewer motorists. The speed limit for electric cars should not be lower than for automobiles. In this con-, nection, since Congress seems very ready to legislate, ‘why not stagver the office hours of right-turn street and Mhe gowernment bureaus Over 45- minute periods for th . opening and afternoon closing. The traction companies will welcome this distribution of the ‘‘peak load” and it will be a real help to better- -morning Hagerstown, Jan. 14. M. R.

ITH the official seascn of entertaining W half way completed for the President and Mrs. Coolidge, a respite from social du- ties of a formal nature is in sight for them Next Thursday comes the always interesting reception, in honor of Congress and in this Instance it promises to présent many novel features, inasmuch as it is the first White House reception for many members of both houses. Usually the congressional reception is one of the largest of the season, for the families, relatives and friends of Congress members generally attend the function with theni. President Coolidge will see pass before him down the line many who were familiar to. him while he was presiding officer of the Senate, but there will be many new faces as well in that august body. However, a still more complete change in the personnel of the upper house may be expected in 1927 after the retirement of a number of prominent senatorial leaders at the November elections of 1926, for several of them have announced their intention not to run again for that dis- tinguished office. Their own list'of state functions completed, it is presumed that President and Mrs. Cool- idge then will have their social activities en- gaged in attendance on the various cabinet dinners in their honor. This pretty custom has grown in the last few administrations into most pleasurable events, for each cabinet member and his wife .endeavors to find the most entertaining and worthwhile fellow guests for the chief executive and the first lady of the land and in this way variety and entertainment are added to the dinners. The President and Mrs. Coolidge will gin their rounds of dining out this week, the first of the series of dinners to be given by the Vice President and Mrs. Dawes Tuesday evening. Each the Vice President and the members of the cabinet entertain in turn, in order of precedence, for the chief execu- tive and his wife. These official dinners are the only ones the President and his wife ac- cept, with the few exceptions when they dine at the home of some very intimate friend. The President and Mrs. Coolidge seldom ac- cept an invitation to dine out, although the Hardings and Tafts liked those informal parties and frequently accepted invitations. The next dinner in honor of the President and Mrs. Coolidge will be given by the Sec- retary of State and Mrs, Kellogg on Tuesday, January 26. The Secretary of the Treasury and Miss Mellon will be the next in line for a dinner and while their date has been select- ed by the President and Mrs, Coolidge, they prefer not to have it mentioned at this time. Tuesday, in all probability, will be the day for each of these entertainments, although more than half of them will be continued after lent. With Ash Wednesday, February 17, the cabinet dinners perhaps will end with the Secretary of War and Mrs. Davis to be resumed by the Postmaster General and Mrs. New. be- year os x x * QUAINT sight ington assembly, whicn is to be a cos- is promised in the Wash- tume ball at the Mayflower January 27, and a number of the leading hostesses are plan- ning original features in the costuming of their group of guests for the occasion. Laven- der-scented cedar chests and _ brass-bound trunks hidden away in attics and store rooms are being ransacked for the well-nigh forgot- ten finery of grandmothers and great-grand- inothers, with their suggestions of romance and another social day. While it has. been emphasized that the ball will be an ‘“‘Old Washington ball,’’ yet there will be a goodly representation: present from the official. dip- lomatic and winter colonies. These who cher- ish the sprightly melodies of vesterday and old-fashioned dances will be pleased to learn that the always graceful and alluring minuet will be danced by two sets of dancers, one group of young married couples and the other,composed of the debutantes of 1926. A distinguished list of patronesses has been obtained for the event including Mrs. Cool- idge, Mrs. Dawes and Mme. de Riano. Society, which has just waved ‘‘au revoir”’ to the retiring Ambassador of France and the a e., uN DERWOOD- VNOERWOOD Mme. Daeschner, will present their greetings this week to the new Ambassador of Franee and Mme. Henri Berenger. TheSe udditions to the diplomatic corps who are well known in artistic and literary circles, landed: in New York this week. They do not come as entire strangers to Washington, however, as the Ambassador was a member of the French debt funding commission, which was in the Capi- tal several months ago. - With two of the principal embassies of the city in strict mourning for their dowager sovereigns, in the recent deaths of Queen Alexandra of England and Queen Margherita of Italy, and other dip'omatic households rep- resenting countries allied by blood to the families of these royal liadies in partial mourn- ing, much of the diplomatic entertaining of the moment has been either abandonéd or is of an informal nature, The arrival of the Serbian debt funding commission Friday was a signal of social attention for the famous men who are members of the commission. The commission, which is headed by Dr. Milan Stoyadinovitch, was formerly greeted at the Union station by the MInister of the Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, Dr. Pavichich, and the members of the legation staff. Other diplo- matic social events of the week were the din- ner by the Minister of Greece and Mme. on New Year’s,day, when Mrs. Cook exive the first reception ever held in Memorfal Con- tinenetal hall with Daughters as the special guests. Among those present from out: of town resident and visiting Thursday evening were representative wom- en from every State in the Union, to whom the civic organizations of the coantry are looking for leadership. To meet them were assembled a notable company of guests, dis- tinguished alike in public service for the United States and in various nattional and local civic and educational enterprises. The entire company, which numpered 135 persons, was seated- at one long‘ table and two shorter ones paralleling the long table. White and pink blossoms made an effective contrast against the predominant mote of bltie in the banqtete room’s rich lovely: colorings. Wonderful old mahogany sidebaards with knife boxes upon them, serving tables, corner cupboards filled with rare old china, and din- ing chairs of exquisite design gave one the sense of dining in colonial state. At various intervals the officers of the nationah society, Daughters of the American Revolution, served as assistant hostesses—so that despite’ the- large number of guests present one al- UNDERWOOD- on, OTs CVlion ©.

E WASHINGTON: POST: JANUARY — 17, 1998. mands presentable appearance. & While Martha Washington never presided over the White House, she set many precedents for the first lady: of the land, among them clothes made in the United States of, American materials. Martha Washington maintained her own spinning wheels and looms in the spinning house at Mount Vernon and many of her garments were woven on the home place in common with other households of the day. Of course,.some of the lace fichus, bro. cvades and other possessions she left to her descendants and which are cherished relics today came from overseas. But Mrs. Washington took a great pride in the gowns made from Mount Vernon home- Spun, which while not actually the work of her own hands were spun under her direction. One of the best examples of the Washingtons’ patronage of home in- cdustries was demonstrated by the suit of fine cloth worn by Gen. Washington at his inauguration, which was the handiwork of his household. Wore Cotton and Silk. Another proof of Mrs. Washing- ; ton’s success in domestic manu c- | ture was in the exhibition of two| dresses which were composed of | cotton striped with silk entirely | home made. The silk stripes in the | fabric were woven from the.ravel-} ings of brown silk stockings and old | crimson Ghair covers. These who look with too critical an eye at the strangers who occa- sionally attend their first White House reception with hats. on'§ should remember that there is a real precedent for this, for the’ sprightly Dolly Madison always! wore one of her famous turbans. | At the inaugural ball she wore’a superb turban from Paris. Mrs. | Madison was also a declared econo- | mist, for she wrote to Mr. and Mrs. | Joe] Barlow in France in November of 1811: ‘I ask the favor of you to| send me by safe vessel large head- | dresses, a few flowers, feathers, | gloves, stockings black and white, | with anything else suitable and | pretty for an economist.’’ Washington had the same keen, sense of rumor then as it has now | éyparently, for it was whispered | and reechoed on the sounding board | even then part of the acoustics of | the National Capital that “Mrs. | Madison used rouge.’’ This care-| fully guarded boudoir secret of the | early eighteen hundreds will not| strike the modern woman with her '! battery of lip sticks, rouge and! powder as being of any very great! importance. White House Was Damp. | Mrs. John Adams, who was the | first President’s wife to reside in | the White House, had all] the trou-| bles of getting settled and recorded ~oat the rooms were so damp that. she had to wear heavy lingerie and | could not wear her elegant dresses | for tear of taking cold. Mrs. Abigail Adams wrote to a/ Ee eee 2 clothes from Philadelphia which were on a sailing vessel which tar- ried long on the journey to the new Capital. Giimpses of and taste of the the women of the characteristics | White ITouse can best be garnered | from the correspondence which still | exists. in a number of cases, in the hands of relatives. A scribing Mrs. James clares that ‘‘she is a very elegant woman.” At a letter de- | Monroe de- dinner party this | same correspondent describes Mrs. } Monroe as wearing a black velvet turban, close and spangled, with a very fine muslin gown worked in | front and lined with pink.

Her hat was a small close fitting one with a flower low on the left side. Miss Moffett is also wear- ing a gown of pansy crepe made with long sleeves and a high neck- line.

The skirt was made of squares of the chiffon which were allowed to rip. ple. Mrs. George X. McLanahan was seen at one of the balls in a cloth of gold fashioned along straight lines and caught with rhinestone orna- ments. Miss Louise McLanahan, who was with her, wore a frock of white chiffon trimmed with silver flowers. That Washington society is in- terested in art was demonstrated by the exclusive groups which at- tended the exhibition of the por- traits on ivory of Countess Kor- zybska, shown at the home of Mrs. Gibson Fahnestock Wednesday. Mrs. Fahnestock, who enter- tained at luncheon before the ex- hibit, wore a gown of black crepe silk, made on straight lines and quite long. There was a deep V of green crepe silk in the neckline. Mrs. Fahnestock’s sleeves were Chain of Pink Quartz. Countess Korzybska, who ex- plained the portraits herself, wore a gown of blue velvet made on straight lines. Her hat Was of shaded blue feathers.

The New York Statesman in a description of Mrs. Adams, : said: ‘Mrs. Adams was elegantly, but not gorgeously dressed. Her headdress and plumes were tastefully ar- ranged. In her manners she united dignity with an unusual share of historic household. In the collection of portraits of Ladies of the White House, on the lower floor of the White, House, those who like to turn back the pages of history will be able to per- ceive in their choice of costumes insights into the characters of the women who have presided over the historic household. In later years the ladies of the White House have had a lasting and decided influence on matters relat- ing to colors and fabrics, The ‘‘Alice »ive” of the Roosevelt administra- dian has now become a word of -smmon usage at silk and dry goods counters; while every one knows exactly what is wanted when Hard- ing blue, Helen pink for Helen Taft, or Eleanor rose for Mrs. Will- iam Gibbs McAdoo is requested.

Many new workers have reported to Mrs, Albert Cleaves, chairman of the unit, for this service. More workers are needed, how- ever, and a special request is made of the clubwomen of Washington to volunteer even a few hours a week for this constructive service, which frees the nursing staffs of the local hospitals for nursing work, as without the surgical dressings made by the Red Cross chapter workers, Washington nurses would have to devote much time to this duty, which can be done satisfactorily by lay women. Officials of the District chapter of the American Red Cross made pub- lic last week the final figures of the receipts from government depart- ments at the recent roll call of that organization.

Should there be any stowing down during 1926 it does not. seem likely to oc- cur until after the spring season has passed. Some observers look for a reaction some.time in 1926, while others anticipate an even greater volume than in 1925.

This large excess indicates a continuing heavy construction de- mand carried over into the new Vear.

Contemplated new work report- ed for New England during the past | twelve months has amounted to $558,240,600, being 17 per cent in excess of the amount of work ac- tually started. Since this is con- siderably under the normal 50 per cent excess of contemplated work, it indicates that the’ continuing building demand in New England is rather less strong than elsewhere. York December closed the building ‘year in New York State and North- ern New Jersey with a new high record. There were last month in this district $212,390,200 worth of ‘an increase of 32 per cent over November and of 110 per cent over the previous December.

Pittsburgh District. Building and engineering con- tracts awardéd during the month of December in the Pittsburgh district (western -Pennsylvania, West Vir- ginia, Ohio and Kentucky), amount- ed to $43,498,000... This was a 7 per cent decrease from November, previous December. The year’s total for this district, $828,641,600, showed the largest increase over 1924 of any section of the country, 43 per cent. This record total included: $275,938,- 600, or 33 per cent of all construc- tion, for residential buildings; $189,645,500, or 23 per cent, for public works and utilities; $154,- 050,500, or 19 per cent, for indus- trial and power plants; $81,215,- 000, or 10 per cent, for commercial buildings, and $61,552,000, or 7 per eent, for educational buildings. Contemplated new work reported for this district’. during 1925 amounted to $934,190,800. Since this was only 13 per cent in excess of the. total of awarded contracts, it would usually be considered as indicating a slack demand for con- struction. But 1925 broke all such precedents in this district, which seems quite likely to continue at as good a rate as most other sections. The Central West. Last month’s construction con- tracts in the central West (Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin, Michi- gan, Missouri,.

The above figure brought the year’s construction total up to $1,- 487,309,000, being a 42 per cent increase over the previous year, which had established the record to date. The 1925 record included: $659,420,200, or 44 per cent of all construction, for residential build- ings: $260,841,100, or 18 per cent, for public works and_ utilities; $173,.626,300, or 12 per cent, for commercial buildings; $134,443,- 600, or 9 per cent, for educational buildings, and $106,918,300, or 7 per cent, for industrial buildings. Contemplated new work reported for this district during the past year amounted to $2,116,819,300. The excess of contemplated work over work actually started was 42 per cent, or slightly less than nor- mal, indicating a possible moderate slackening in building demand. The Northwest.

While this district had only a moderate increase over 1924 and did not equal its previous high rec- ord made in 1923, it shows an ac- tive construction demand continu- ing over into 1926. Contemplated new work reported for the North- west during the past twelve months has amounted to $154,842,200, and has exceeded total contracts by 63 per cent, 50 per cent being the nor- mal excess. Texas. December building and engineer- ing contracts in Texas amounted to $17,976,800, an increase of 78 per cent over November and of 56 per cent over the preceding December. The year’s construction total fér Texas (whose records have not been included with those of the 36 East- ern States) was $185,357,900. Com- plete contract records for Texas in 1924 are not available, but the average monthly volumd in 1925 was just equal to the average vol- ume. in the 1924 months for which contract records were kept. Last year’s construction volume includ- ed: $75,911,100, or 41 per cent of all construction, for residential buildings; $36,770,300, or 20 per cent, for commercial buildings; $28,200,400, or 15 per cent for in- dustrial buildings; $15,886,500, or § per cent, for public works -and utilities; and $13,182,100, or 7 per cent, for educational buildings. Contemplated new work reported | for Texas during the past year has amounted to $237,257,200, being 28 per cent in excess of the amount of work actually started. Since the normal excess of contemplated work is about 50 per cent, the indication is that a moderate construction de- mand is carried over into the new year.

GALLAUDET PARK Just Two Blocks North Oth St. & Fla. Ave.N.E. it is interesting to note that, not-' withstanding the enormous con- struction activity of the past year, totaling the largest on record,’ shortage of buildings is still being reported. The report comes partic- ularly from. the smaller cities and from sections of .the country in: which real estate development is go-: ing on very actively. As a result, despite the. large ‘amount of con-, struction completed during the year, the percentage of cities reporting a! shortage is greater than the num- ber so reporting to the. association in June. On the other hand, over- building is-reported by a larger number of cities than s0 reported six months ago. A total of 76 cities report some , form of overbuilding, as against 67 Oo so reporting in. June, and against pen. only 27 so reporting the previous Daily and December. .

' LOSES AS TRIM CRAFT SPINS DOWN HOUSE FLAG pened Monthly Service to New Territory After Peace With Mexico. A. -- é San Francisco, Jan..16 (By P.).—On a dull November day years ago, a _ great side-wheel steamer, her decks teeming with hungry, unkempt, but riotously joy- ous gold seekers, many of them hag- gard from tropical fever, came through the Golden Gate and an- chored in the stream, the first steam vessel] to enter this roadstead. On a sparkling fall day in 1925 a trim freight craft, loaded to the Plimsoll mark with a rich cargo, was warped into a towering dock on main truck for the last time. These two events marked the be- ginning and the end of the Pacific Mail Steamship Co., oldest steam water carrier on the coutinent with | the exception of the Cunard, and once credited with being the portation companies. Spiced Witir Romance. From the time that the Californii | paddled into the harbor ‘until trim Solana tied up and handed over her papers to her new owners, the history of this company was spiced with romance and shadowed deep by | tragedy. The California put to sea from New York on October 5. 1848, with | a happy company bound for New Granada, far to the south where the Americas join, and for Oregon wilderness. While she op the way, word came to her that gold had been discovered in Cali- fornia. The news brought sort of treasure’ madness ship’s company. She moved swift- lv down the Spanish Main under throbbing boilers until she came to the Isthmus of Panama. There the treasure seekers left her in one eager horde. Hoped to Get to Panama, and catch a boat there which would | get them to the new Golconda be-, fore the California arrived. They drifted up the Chagres river in canoes poled along lazily by the coppery natives who would stop for rest at every shady place. They choked the boulder lined trails that had been blazed out three cen- turies before by the Spanish con- querors bringing back the treas- ures of the Incas and the Aztecs. They fell and died of fever and ex- haustion when the trails gave way to tangled jungle growth. A few pitiful hundreds reached Panama at last—to find no ship there. Many dropped from the dread Chagres fever while they waited. Other hundreds joined them from other ships. The California came in sight at last. Others Left Behind. But 400 could get ahoard and they packed in ’tween decks... sweat- ing, swearing, but feverish with | hope. The others were left behind | to await other craft or to die. A few weeks later the California, her galley bare, her.coal gone, but her devil-may-care company sus- tained by their great exgitement, paddled jnto the harbor Of San Francisco. Capt. John Marshall, who curiously enough bore the name of the discoverer of gold, led one party into the hills and was lost to history. Another leaped over the California’s the skipper. World is Printea Daily in was William Van Voorhies who ;jJater became Secretary of State of California. The California waited and waited in the harbor, but her gold-mad érew never returned.

Dowager quéens of Europe have suf- fered many tragedies in the last hal? century. The Dowager Empress Marie of Russia, who had another great sorrow in the loss of her sister Queen Alexandra, has proba bly been through more ‘horrors than any royal personage of history. With ithe possible exception, of the unfor- |tunate mpress’-Charlotte of Mex- ‘ico, the ‘Bowager:Czarine has gone through ‘greater tragedy than any of her’ sister queens of recent times. 'The strain was-.too much for Charlotte’s nerves, and a clouded | mind saved her from full realization | of the horible slaughter of her hus- band,.Emperor Maximilian. Queen - Asnelies- of Portugal, now divides +er.time between Eng-! land and Frdnce, suffered the loss of her husband and older son at the hands of bomb. throwers, and saw her younger son dethroned a year after he had succeeded his father. Former Empress Zita of Austro- Hungary, is a refugee in Spain, where she has her interesting fam- ily of children about her and is seeking to advance the claims of her oldest son, Archduke Otto, to a throne which no longer exists. Her fortune is gone. Her empire is par- celed out among other powers with ‘republican governments. , Queen Olga and Queen Sophie of | Greece, respectively, widows of the Dowager Empress Marie’s brother and nephew, also are refugees from | the country where they once ruled. Russia’s former empress, ithe Danish royal family, has had a (life as eventful as her sister Alex- audra’s was peaceful. She survived her husband, Alexander III, for 390 years, only to séee her eoyntry plunged into two wars, followed by a revolution which wiped out all vestige of imperial power and butchered her son, Czar Nicholas, and his entire family. Another unhappy dowager em- press was the late Empress Freder- ick of Germany, mother of the for- mer kaiser. She ruled for only three months with the dying emperor, and as empress dowager of Ger- many she was the victim of personal and political intrigue which caused her to be hated by the Gerthan peo- Ple and referred to as ‘“‘That Eng- lishwoman.”’ Kven her son was charged with having neglected her after he ascended the throne, and she died twelve years later. in a storm, with the loss of 419 of her 582 passengers and crew. Capt. Herndon, famed Amazon explorer, who was muster, went down with his ship.. In the same year the steamer Columbia was lost in the China sea. The company's ships also made vivid history of another sort. The Mongolia, big passenger liner, was credited with being the first Ameri- can vesses! to sink a German sub- marine in the world war, this event happening, however, after she had passed out of the company’s hands. In 1916 the company, hit hard by the wage and other provisions of the seaman’s act, sold its big trans-pacific liners, wHf?*h had held Pacific trade supremely for a quar- ter of a century, and substituted three smaller beats. Later the company acquired fivé boats of the President type under charter from the government. The sale of these boats to the Dollar Steamship Co. a few months ago marked the beginning of the end of the historic old carrier. The route between the Pacific and the Atlan- tic by way of the Panama canal was maintained for a time, but was finally disposed of, and’ the com- pany was left with but one steamer, the Solapa.

Rosa Ponselle, prima donna of the ‘Metropolitan Opera Company, is conducting a quiet search for an American protege to succeed her. The dramatic soprano has no in- tention of an early retirement——she is yet to reach 30 years of age and the full height of her career. The protege is being sought beqause /Miss Ponselle desires to show that ‘others may succeed in opera and concert work with training in America, | Far too occupied to consider let- ‘ters or jnterviews,. she is making | the search personally as time per- ! mits. Miss Ponselle has been interested ‘in music all her life, but her jump | from vaudeville to grand opera oc- ‘curred in only a few months. It was in March, 1918, that her vau- ‘deville contract expired and she lwent before Gatti Casazza, Metro ‘politan manager, for an audition. | $he was engaged immediately ‘and after only seven months of pre- i\vious intensive study ang training, ishe made her debut in the revival ‘of Verdi’s “Forza del Destino.’ A imonth Jater she sang the leading ‘role of Rezia in the revival of Weber's “Oberon.” Within a space | of six weeks she established her- self as one of the country’s’ fore- | most. Miss Ponselle first sang opposite Caruso in a leading role in ‘La Juive.’’ Only recently she sang the opera for the first time since his death. ‘To the famous tenor the star gives much credit for her suc- CesSs, While a singular opportunity was laregly responsible for her immedi- ate triumph, hard work and con- scientious study have been: factors in her success. The period between May and October has been devoted to training. In addition to regular appearances, the singer averages two and sometimes four rehearsals a week. At least two lessons are taken from her teacher, Romano Romani, “Tl have not been to a single per-- formance of opera this season other than my own,” Miss Ponselle said. ‘Neither have I been to a Broad- Way show.

So closely is the alt#hude of these mounds likened with good times the Long Islanders have, come, to speak of their piles of oyster ghells as “financial ornaments.’’ Some of Mountain Size. At Greenport, Uuntington, villages, some of the heaps already jhave attained mountain size. The old theory that the work of @ car- penter can be determined by the number of his chips finds confirma- tion among the oyster fishermen. Oysters this year are plentiful yand of fair size, fishermen say, so there is more than ordinary en- terprise among those who go down to the sea in ships to niake their living. Reports last year that the bivalve was a disease spreading agency cut the demand sharply last year, but this year it appears that confidence has been restored. Shippers of oysters this year are putting into effect every suggestion of health authorities. Thirty Power Vessels Busy. In Greenport alone more than 30 power vessels are engaged in bring- ing the oysters from Peconic bay, Fire Place Point and other oyster lands. Hardly a day pasges, but a carload of 1,500 gallons is shipped from the town. As a result of the demand and supply this year every oyster shop is a hive of industry. Vessels arrive constantly from ‘the oyster field to dump their cargoes inte the con- ‘ainers that take them on Jong jour- neys West. As they arrive at the opening and packing house the oys- ters are handled almost exclusively by conveyors. Washed in Different Waters. After Being opened the bivalves are washed in different waters. In ne process a strong current of air s used to remove particles of shells hat might have been left behind in opening. Mainly, the stock is yacked in five-gallon iced _ tins, ‘tored in refrigerator cars and ship- oed by fast trains. Oyster dealers say that it takes only five days to send shipments from Long island 0 the Pacific coast. Localities vary in the matter of ‘avering various sizes of oysters for 10me consumption. Some wish the tmall oyster while others have marked preference for the medium 1 Jarge varieties. Size alone is not necessarily an indication of oyster quality. However, in order that 2ach community may have its pref- 2rence, the oysters are graded as 10 size.’ The largest size runs about 200 oysters to the gallon. There is ne complaint when the seap of oyster shells fm the various villages -of Long island grow to rather mountainous proportions.

LEWIS HOTEL SCHOOL CLASS STARTS FEB. 2 Present Year Js Expected to set a Record in Build- - ing of Inns. More hotels mean more men, according to Clifford Lewis, president of the Lewis Hotel Train- ing schools, who announced yester- day that a new class in hotel man- agement would start February and that architectural forum ex- perts predict that 1926 will see more hotel building than any previ- ous time in the country. It is esti- mated that $1,032,882,500 will be spent in hotel and club construction this year. Eight hundred millions of this will be expended for hotel construction. This means that there will be 193,671 hotel and club positions to fill. ‘‘Add to this the tremendous demand for employes created by new hotels just being completed, or being rushed to completion,’’ said Mr. Lewis,‘‘ and it will be easy to realize why trained hotel executives are at a premium.” Enrollments are now being re- ceived for the class. Lecturers will inclzde Mrs. Mary Catherine Lewis, H. J. Staley, Miss Gertrude Barry, Russell A. Conn, John W. Davis, Charles Freund, H. A. Lewis, A. F. Moeller, Mrs. Mable E. Pendexter, Benjamin H. Streeks, Ralph B. Toll, W. @. Hill, Miss Margaret B. Evans, C. T. Gibson, Mrs. M. L. Williams and Jacque Haeringer.

PLANS CHANGE OF POLICY TQ OTART ON FEB. 2 Will Admit iditdiedeatis to Its School of Polit- ical Science. When the second semester opens on February 2, the School of Po- litical Science of American univer- sity will put into effect a radical change of policy by admitting undergraduate students. Up to the present only advanced degrees have been granted by the down- town departments of the univer- sity. Last fall the College of Lib- eral Arts was opened on the campus at Massachusetts and Nebraska ave- nues, and the B. A. degree will be awarded to members of the first graduating class this June. A further expansion of under- graduate work is now announced in the fields of political sciences at the downtown center, in re- Sponse to the great demand for col- lege instruction in these subjects in Washington. The grade of the courses to be offered will correspond to those of the last two years of a standard college. Students applying for admission will be expected to have completed the first two years of college work or to pursue courses which will make up for the lack of the first half of a college course before they become candidates for a degree. The work in the new courses of undergraduate grade will be pro- fessional in character, and will lead to the degree of bachelor of political science. The courses will be arranged for the late after- noon, and they will be offered in government, history, diplomacy, economics and foreign trade. Graduate Work to Be Same. Graduate work leading to the advanced degrees of master of political science. and doctor of Philosophy will be carried on as heretofore in the School of Politi- Sciences. But these degrees by-the Graduate School of Arts and ‘Sciences, be- ginning with the academic year 1926-27. This procedure will be followed in accordance with the whole reorganization plan of the downtown departments, which was unanimously approved by the faculty and the executive commit- tee of the board of trustees of the university last week. Under the new organization there will be only one graduate school, that of Arts and Sciences, which will award the degrees of M. P. 5., M. A., and Ph. D. Officials of the university ex- pressed great satisfaction over these changes in organization, and énlarge the_scope of the - institu- tion’s work, “but increase efficiency in administration and instruction. First Evangelical Church Will Build The First Evangelical church of Washington will be established at Fourth and Rittenhouse streets northwest, Manor Park, it was an- nounced yesterday by E. H. Pull- man, president of the Manor Park Citizens association. The church will be of the bungalow type, and lower floors there will be Sunday school and church facilities, and overhead. Bishop M. T.

The other divisions demand passing in studies, deportment and attendance, with special provisions according to their peculiar character, ‘ The presentation will be made by A. G.

oe ee - , emeieseeeete: WASHINGTON: SUNDAY, JANUARY '17, 192 6. aa By JOHN J. DALY ie Rtas last Sunday evening. The boys in the gallery gave the actors on stage at Poli’s theater what is popularly known in England as “the rawsberry.’’ Other incidents aside, this was the first time such an occurrence had ever taken place in the Capital of the United States. The attraction at Poli’s was known as ‘‘The Night Club Edition of the Har! Carroll ‘Vanities.’ ’’ In order to carry out the night club idea, to inject the atmosphere of a glorified honky-tonk, stage carpenters and house mechanicians in general had considerably altered the appearance of the theater. The first five rows of orchestra seats were removed. The stage had been projected some 20 feet over the orchestra floor, with steps leading down to ground level. Footlights had given way to a bat- tery of calcium floods in the gallery. There were regulation dining tables, | with white cloths, the standard lamp and shade, and bottles of a well- known ginger ale scattered promiscuously about. , Here and there a pseudo diner delved now and then under the table with a motion that | went hip-ward——where the course of empire now takes its way. The audience started to come into the theater shortly after eight bells. They were met at the entrance-way by a galaxy of young ladies | representing hostesses. They were shown to their seats by ushers dis- | guised as head waiters. Previously, those who had selected the table chairs were presented, each and every one, at the box office, with a check for $7.70-——that being the admission price with war tax added. * wr aE wt pts the regular performers set to work, the audience was at | liberty to walk up on the stage, now done over in night club fin-| ishings, and there while away the interim in dancing. Professional | dancers, male and female, were to be had for the mere beckoning. The dancing went on, and on, and on; and at 8:45 there was no sign | of the “Vanities’’ getting under way. Of a sudden, out stepped one Charlie Irwin, an erstwh#> vaudevillian, hired now by Mr. Carroll to | “explain the big idea.’’ gMr. Irwin, in dinner jacket and strict sartorial splendor above the waistline, was entrapped—that is probably the werd —in a blazing pair of trousers, zebra stripes of red, yellow and gold, | The effect was for all the | running length-wise from amidships down. world like the afterglow of the aurora borealis. Somewhat in the manner of a humorist, Mr. Irwin explained that, owing to the large and cumbersome amount of scenery transported from Philadelphia, and the lack of time in which stage settings could be arranged, there would possibly be delays. He asked forbearance. Well and good. The audience was with him toa man. At 9 o’clock, then, the revue got under way—and., shortly after, out went patience. x x: Me * ot Vanities,’’ here in a nutshell is approximately what happened on Sunday night last—the never-to-be forgotten evening when a Washing- ton audience betook unto itself the privilege of a London music hall. UIPPED with a running order of the “‘Night Club Edition of the EARL CARROLL’S VANITIES, 3d EDITION. Curtain Plot. (ACT 1.) -(Joe Tinley, Stage Mer.) |. ‘“Rotisserie.’’ (Take away.) (No. 1 Gold.) (Full.) Scene shows twelve beautiful chorus girls made up as chickens, turning on a rotis- serie—-ready to serve. The chefs come in, take down the girls, now done to a crisp, sing a little song, and run off stage. > Lester Allen (In One.) Standing before the No. 2 gray curtain, Lester Allen, comedian, with his 3234 collar, red necktie and derby hat, tells a few jokes. On cue the gray curtain smothers him. 3. “Pappy and Mammy Scene.” (Pappy and Mammy Drop.) This shows the old homestead, with the boy returned to tell his pappy and mammy of his love for a girl from the far-away places. Pappy tells the boy why he can’t marry the gal. Mammy \does likewise. An old-time story of some question set to stage use. The gray curtain closes with the shame of it all. 4. Nellie Breen Specialty. (In One.) A dance that takes the curse off preceding numbers; but merely a dance, with a flurry of chorus girls. 5. ‘‘Barroom Scene.’ (Open No. 2 gray as dancing girls exit.) This is where low-down and low-life comedy comes to bear. A barroom, nat- urally there is a drunk—and a very clever one, too, but, withal, a lot of course, vulgar comedy, with low-brow comedians stumbling over each other, picking up cuspidors and bar towels, and all that sort of tommy- The gold curtain again saves the temper of the audience, but by this time there are mumblings in the gallery. The storm is on the way. 6. Ray Hughes. (In front of No. 1 Gold.) Just what Ray did is be- voud the mazes of memory. He probably told a few stale jokes, made a couple of wise-cracks, said, ‘‘So’s your old man,” and departed behind the gold curtain. What a refuge that proved to be! 7. “Shawl, Pearls and Fan.” (In Full.) (Open No. 2 (Close in No. 1 Gold.) Here was the wow. Three girls, nature sent them on earth, but provided now, each in her own different way, with a shawl, a string of pearls and a fan, proceed to knock the boys right out of the dug-outs and off the duckboards. 8. Miss Allyn King, Mr. Irwin and Mr. Norton. (In front of No. 1 Gold.) Just an old-fashioned vaudeville triumvirate trying to get along, with a couple of snappy jokes, a dance or two along the boards, a high kick in the slats administered by Mr. Allen to Miss King, and again the gold curtain acts as a cover-up—in time to prevent casualties. 9. ‘Boudoir Scene.” (In No. 25 Black.) (Open No. 1 Gold.) ¢Close in No. 2 Gray.) Just Another one of those things, with plenty of atmos- phere, talcum powder, chiffon and what hyve you. No police interfer- ence, and the gray curtain closes in on the cool gray dawn of the morn- ing after. Alleh-up! 10. “Kiss in the Moonlight.’’ (Open in No. 2 Gray.) (Close in No. 1 Gold at finish of the number.) The one sovg of the entire production that stood out, with chorus girls silhouetted against a background of moonlight and stars. 11. Mr. Charles Irwin (in front of No. 1 Gold). (No close in.) And how Mr. Irwin wished there might have been a “close in;’’ for ‘twas here, mates, that the shootin’ began. Mr. Irwin, again asking pardon for the delayed curtains, started in to tell a few choice jokes. Just about that time several of the guests at the $7.70 seats began reaching for their hats and cloaks, preparing to go out into the cold, cold night. Mr. Irwin gave the leader of the party what is known in the profession as ‘‘a dirty look.’’ One of the party let loose a low, lingering ‘‘boo.”’ The gallery gods took it up. They went after Mr. Irwin. Calling for silence, Mr. Irwin asked the audience to line up out in the corridor and inspect the out-going troop. If that were done, he avowed, there would be a general all-round belief in birth-control]. A nice party this, with re- freshments on the way. The din in the gallery grew louder. Unable to pacify the cash customers, Mr. Irwin called for stage assistance. Out came Bob Norton, an elongated comedian; but he gave up the ghost and dived back of No. 1 Gold. Mr. Irwin sat down an the upper step, mopped his favorite and fevered brow. He made another attempt. : prices remaining at the usual Poli’s theater to-

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY. ' a Photoplays and Players mw —By JACK Y. LAD, - HE latest move on the part of the great and sovereign State of Ten- nessee to make itself appear ridiculous in the eyes of the nation is | now under way, and twenty thick Tennesseeans are about to embark on | & mission to Christianize the Capital. For the past week we have been confronted with daily news. items | Setting forth in no uncertain terms that a score of sterling citizens from, | what Henry Mencken likes to call the Bryan belt, have drawn up a set | of resolutions which, barring accidents, they will present to Congress | during the latter part of January—these resolutions being, in effect, to | force a set of blue laws on the residents of the District of Columbia. And should the resolution take the form of a law, we voteless Washing- tonians will have to put up with precisely what a choice collection of | uplifters from the antievolution territory see fit to thrust upon us. | Briefly, the advance réports state that the resolution advocates the _ Sunday closing of theaters, cinema houses and all other forms of amuse- ment. As to the things it affects, aside from the theater, let the learned editorial writers register their joint and several moans—but, as to the movies, I feel called upon to make some complaint. ‘Eiver since the advent of the cinema there has been a hue and cry | raiséd as to its very godlessness; eminent Puritans heve lectured upon | thé subject from the pulpits; virtuous politicians have called upon the citizens to stamp out this thing of evil; soul-stirring evangelists have | pointed out the satanic nature of the California product, and big-hearted provincials have sworn themselves to fight this greatest of evils for the | last 25 years. | When a Washingtonian visits the hinterland and informs the waiting populace ‘We have movies in Washington on Sunday; we don’t have tosit around the house and gossip about our neighbor,” the said popu- is lace, after declaring itself pure of heart, throws up its hands in, holy | ,.horror and states, ‘Can this be true? We thought that such. fearful | conditions existed only in New York, which, as you know, we consider a modern Sodom.’ When a sightseer comes to Washington during the | dog days and visits a local cinema palace on a Sunday afternoon, he ex- periences a kick that compares only with the joy derived from witnessing a midnight show at the Mutual, or imbibing some of the well-known | Four-and-a-half street ‘white mule’’— it’s simply devilish. Now, I'll admit that the church was created to be catered to on Sun- day—and that everyone who professes himself ta be a Christian should | uanage to be there on the Sabbath. WHRen church is over, should one) #0 home and wear a long face the rest of the evening? Some sage once. remarked that an idle mind was the workshop of the devil—and if the movies close down on. Sunday in Washington old grandfather Saten | would certainly go into the workshop business as a species of chain-store | magnate. The thousands of government workers in our. fair city demand | a place of recreation over the Sabbath——the countless numbers of “‘two- room-kitchenette-and-bath”’ simply must have some place to while away the time from Saturday until Monday—and the large floating population of rustics from Alexandria and points South clamor for a Sunday thrill... Shall we allow otrselves to be dictated to by a score of radicals Who would do better by staying at home and preaching the gos- pel of tolerance to the up and coming generations of clay eaters? *: ok s « ° F you do not care for Sunday movies, maybe your neighbor does, and I certainly you are not compelled to go to a show. ~ And if you'd rather stay at home and listen to the radio, or read Boccaccio, or play poker, or logk after your latest batch of grape juice, why it’s perfectly all right— nt&one is making you witness the antics of our Hollywood ham actors. ‘Believe in the old, old preachment, which has to do with ‘‘live and let p.”” Why squabble when others are enjoying themselves? <A gay heart harbors no malice! / {gfruthfully, néw, where is the sin in seeing a movie on Sunday?

The climax of the story is a thrilling one that is packed with suspense and the de- nouement revelatory of the real reason of the $1,000,000 endow- ment of the blonde whose heart proved to be true. Miss Mackaill and Mr. Mulhall are the two young lovers. Paul Nicholson, George Fawcett, Dolores Del Rio, John T. Murray;s Rita Ca- rewe, daughter of Edwin Carewe, who directed the picture, Edward Davis and Lillian Langdon are in the cast.

The second. performance, to be given on Wednesday evening, Feb- ruary 10, will be Charpentier’s four-act musical romance, ‘“‘Louise,”’ with Mary Garden in the title role, supported by George Baklanoff, fa- mous Russian (now American) barytone; Fernand Ansseau, French tenor, and a cast that includes, among others, Mojica, Claessens, D’Hermanoy, Kerr, Pavloska, Kip- nis, Nicolich and Torti.

Henry G. Weber is anounced as the conductor. Baltumore Boy Scores In Female Impersonation Karyl Norman, of ‘Creole Fash- ion Plate’ fame, one of the clever- est female impersonators on the stage, who is coheadlining at B. F. Keith’s . theater this week, has launched a new act on the Keith- Albee circuit which has proved a headline attraction from the day of its debut. His first. number, ‘‘Nashville,”’ a ‘‘blues,’’ exquisitely dressed, is fol- lowed in rapid-fire succession by an Apache number, a fascinating Span- ish number, an overalled male num- ber and a gorgeous white evening dress number. His appeal when discarding the female impersonation and doing male. versions is thoroughly con- vincing. In fact, as a barytone in- terpreter of modern jazz, or a s0- prano propagator of the bluest blues, Norman is equally irresist- ible. His present offering carries with it two piano players, Keno Clark and Bobbie Simonds. Three In One. It is not often that a single pic- ture introduces three girl stars to the public at the same moment but that is what happened a year ago when Paramount brought. out a screen version of “‘Peter Pan’’ with Betty Bronson, Esther Ralston and Mary Brian featured in its cast. The case of Esther Ralston, for example, is interesting. Esther ap- pears as Richard Dix’s leading wom- an in ‘‘Womanhandled,”’ the latest featured attraction at Loew’s Pal- ace which opens’this afternoon, and Republican Germany Shown on Screen “Berlin and Germany” will be pictured and described by FE.

Included in the itinerary are Oberammergau, the home of Anton Lang and his family, and a trip through the Black Forest. To Analyze Drama. “The Art of the One Act Play, Analyzed and Discussed,’’ will be the subject of Maude Frances’ lec- ture at the Wardman Park theater, this evening at-8:30 o’clock. Miss Frances will be assisted in her pro- gram by Mrs. Patrick Gallagher, chairmah of the drama section of. the Women’s City club; Mr. Denis Connell, of the Arts club, and Mr. Mortimer Morehouse, of the Shakespearean society, who. will read Percival Wilde’s interesting one-act play ‘‘The Noble Lord.’”’ Miss Frances, herself, will illustrate her talk by a dramatic reading of Arranged.’ Miss Frances, favorable mention, will conélude her series of literary programs at Wardman Park theater ary 14. i strange cults. |tains every Sutro’s play, ‘‘A Marriage Has Been | whose | program last Month attracted much | | dini. powers he ascribes to his outdoor on Febru- | THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, JANUARY 17, 1996.

For that reason Mr. Hamp- ton and Miss Barrymore are giving Shakespearian repertoire in renovated Colonial vaudeville house.

This being the case, the critic of any art finds himself in a difficult position. He may discover 1,000 material errors, but when Beauty comes and shows to him her face, his teehnical criticisms are of very little value. Soberly, I can find Hampton's production of ‘‘The Mer- chant of Venice.’ I can say that it seems to lack the sweep of high comedy; that some of the parts are badly played; that Hampton's Shy- lock is at times (particularly in his exit speeches) melodramatic and old-fashioned; that only in the courtroom scene does Ethel Barry- more realize to the full the part 9f Portia; that the direction often- times lacks imagination and inven- tiveness; that, owing apparently to an over-hallowed respect for the great bard, the people of the crowds are given no lines to speak, are hardly permitted to langh, and thereby move about the stage like so: many lifeless puppets. ‘But of what significance is such criticiam now?

Perhaps we do not believe all the causes that bring it forth, but the steady development of the present plain enough. The causes that make inp seed turn into the tree and the to send forth blossoms we know little of, content to see the results thse causes make! I might say that the Moscow Art Musical studio do not vodcalize “Garmencita and the Soldier’ quite ag perfectly as the Metropolitan Opera has often done it. But again—thrice again—-what matter? When compared to what is accom- plished, indeed, what matter? For the first time I have seen an opera as stirring as the most stirring drama—as stirring as the most stirring music. I never saw Calve in her prime, but Olga Baklanova made Carmen come to life as Ger- aldine Farrar at the Metropolitan, had ies, stirred one, not because ef the actual poses they took-——there are frequently beautiful groupigs in many musical reviews—but because they made each movement and each grouping an interpretation of the musical and dramatic theme, In “‘Lysistrata,’’ the Greek farce by Aristophones produced several weeks ago by these Russians, I found the same marvelous interpre- tation by every member 6f the com- pany. In this play there was little singing—a burlesque farce it wag —done in the mest vigorous and boisterous manner. No part was too big -for the talent of the actor who played it; no part was toa small not to be worthy of its ac- tor’s greatest ability. Here is a group of artists, who in one production are singers who can act, and in another actors who ean sing. They call themselves players of the synthetic theater, a compre- hensive name, All my life I have felt that opera, which igs composed |. of nearly all the arts, should be the greatest art of all. But seldom enough itis. I have had glimpses of this before in certain single per- formances—in Chaliapin’s ‘‘Boris,’’ for instance—but never until the Russians came to our shores have have I ever truly witnessed a per- formance of the synthetic theater. ‘Man can not live by bread alone.’”’ We are beginning to real- ize that, even in this country.

By ELIZABETH E. POE. HAT the period of provincial- T ism in music in the National Capital has passed is the con- tention of Prof. Bartlett B. James, of the American university. There are many’ who will concur with Prof. James in this conclusion and it is a ‘“‘consummation devout- ly to be wished.’’ Prof. James con- “tinues in a most pleasant vein when he says: ‘It is coming to pass that the musical verdict of the Capital will soon be the highest seal of ap- proval for American artists.”’ The author finds. Congress a great handicap to cultural advance. Per- haps he does not realize that two thorough musicians in Vice Presi- dent Dawes and Speaker Long- worth are now directing the des- tinies of Capitol Hill.

Fritz Reiner, the young conduc- tor of the Cincinnati orchestra, who will personally direct it in its com- munity radio concert, has arranged a program of old Italian music for the occasion.

It’s so dis- tinetive in its delicate ‘Incense of Flowers’ perfume, and in its soft, fineness of texture which keeps it from coarsening or enlarging the pores. It’s so different, too, in the way it stays on so smoothly for hours, and never looks pasty or floury.”’ You, too, can be sure of perfect satisfaction if you'll use this daint- ‘‘Incense of Flowers’’ Face Pow- ily fragranced Black and White der, which comes in white, flesh, and brunette tints, at 50c a pack- age.

P.).—In the “Street of Dim Lan- terns’”’ they are dancing the Charleston. The younger genera- tion of San Francisco’s noted Chi- natown has accepted the ultra-mod- ern step much to the disgust of staid celestial parents. Chinese ‘‘jazz’’ musicians are supplying lilting tunes and sleek, well-groomed youths and brown- eyed beauties are taking to the step enthusiastically. First somewhat timidly but now in open deflance of the frowns of more conservative elders, is the dance indulged. To emphasize the approval given the new step, prizes are published and awarded couples who execute it best. Getting Skinnier Every Day Something Must Be Done and Done Right Now-——-Quick.

vb Og , the costume committee. Cl iiolland and is chiefly self-taught. ‘ - Jhnerd Taylor and executed under the direction paraaide. By ADA RAINEY. HE date of the exhibition of ft, portraits by Rafael Sanchis . Yago,*the Spanish painter who creating such interest in his love- ly crayon portraits of beautiful women, has been decided on. It will take place tomorrow at 1011 Gonnecticut avenue and will con- tinue two weeks, perhaps longer. There will be an opening reception with a private view tomorrow after- noon. Much interest doubtless will be shown in these portraits by rea- son of the personalities of the sit- ters, chief of whom is Mrs. Coolidge, whose portrait the artist has just completed for this exhibition. Mme. Riano, wife of the Spanish Ambas- sador; Mlle. Raquel Pueyrredon, daughter of the Argentine Ambassa- dor; Mrs. William D. Thomas, for- merly Miss Helen Marye, and many others may also be seen in the forthcoming exhibit. The art of Senor Yago is subtle, and distinctive. His portraits are a unique expression. They are in crayon, slightly smaller than life size, of the head only, but with a style and vivacity all their own. They are tinted and have more the appearance of pastels, yet they are not perishable as pastels often prove to’ be, but are as durable as oil. They are incomparable in their drawing. Their chief charm is an inimitable air of distinction and in- dividuality. They are quite as dis- tinctive as the dry points of Hellieu and his sitters are as beautiful and as charming. - Senor Yago was introduced to Washington by Ambassador Riano. The sketch of his life is interesting. He is from Valencia and is a pupil of Sorolla, the famous Spanish ar- tist. As a youth of 14 he won the Beaux Arts prize at Barcelona. Then he won all the silver medals avail- able, his scholarship being increased by his work and unusual talents. At the special school of painting at Madrid he won more honors and at 20 won the first prize of the na- tional exposition there. At first Yago was a figure painter in oil, | but his chief delight was to sketch the women whom he chanced to see aj the cafe or social gathering. A friend suggested that he give.an ex- hibition of these sketches, which he did and recognition was quick to follow. He became most popular with the ladies of Spain and it be- came the vogue among them to have their portrait done by Yago.. He also has drawn many portraits in South America, principally’ in Buenos Aires, Rio de Janiero and Santiago de Chile. He recently has been commissioned by the Diario de la Marinia, a newspaper of Havana, to do the portraits of the King and Queen of Spain when he returns to Spain. It is well known that King Alfonzo and the Infanta Isabella of Bourbon esvecially ad- mire his works: Three years ago he had an exhibition at the Kennedy galleries in New York where the critics were enthusiastic apout his work. ~ . » % Gruppe Exhibition. At the Arts club there will be an exhibition of the paintings by Charles P. Gruppe, of New York, beginning today. Mr. Gruppe is a, well-known painter who is a mem- ber of the Arts club here. Heisa Canadian by birth, although an American citizen. He stydied in He was awarded the gold medal in Rouen, at the exhibition Paris et Province, at the Philadelphia Arts club, two silver medals at the St. Louis world’s fair and has won many other medals and prizes. He is a member of many of the well- known art clubs and is represented in the library of Rouen, France, in the collection of the Queen of Hol- land, permanent collection of the National Arts club, New York, Brooklyn museum, St. Louis mu- seum, the National museum, Wash- ington, the Museum in London, Canada, the William T. Evans col- lection at Montclair, and in many other well-known collections, both in America and abroad. His paint- ings are mostly landscapes that have the suave beauty of Holland, France and the meadows in mid- summer of New York State. Arthur F. Musgrave also will show his water colors recently painted in North Carolina. This should.also prove a most interest- ing exhibition as there will also be on view the reproductions of some of these water colors by a new pro- céss used by a commercial COMPORY in Akron, Ohio. There will be a reception alent this afternoon in honor of Mr. Gruppe at the club at which Mr. and Mrs. Warren N. Ferris will be hosts. On Tuesday evening Miss Helen Nicholay will be hostess. Mrs. Margueretta Spaulding Gerry, guest of honor. Mrs. Gerry will read one of her unpublished stories. On Thursday evening Maj. and Mrs. William Wolf Smith will be hosts. Mr. and Mrs. Henry White, guests of honor. Dramatic recital of ‘‘In- gomar”’ by Mrs. White. ' ~~ ~ & * Bal Boheme Effective. The Bal Boheme on last Monday evening was a real triumph for those who were active on the sev- eral committees *under the direction of Gideon A. Lyon. The decora- tions were altogether lovely... They were designed by Felix Mahoney and transformed the ballroom of the Willard into a garden of fairy Jand. The lighting was most ef- fective, translucent and luminous. Jt accentuated the color scheme and gnade it a most joyous setting for the fete. The gigantic mushroom - used as decorative motif was imagi- mative and original. A _ carnival t pervaded the merrymakers, a table ‘“‘mi-careme’”’ festival it Many of the costumes were Bi tcsenuc, The sixteen members of the floor committee were garbed $n Indian costumes, gorgeous in their black and gold robes with enormous white turbans.

There were portraits of Mrs. | Joseph Leiter, Mrs. Oliver Iselin | at Hope Lands, of Dina, daughter of Mrs. George Widener; of: Miss | Elsie de Wolf, Mrs. Josephine Os- | born and many others’ which'! showed original phase of the art | that the artist has originated. She | used at times as many sheets of ivory for one painting, which is frequently a symbolic painting interpreting the individu- ality of the sitter. A new technique | is thus brought out when it be-| comes necessary to “paint back- wards,’ as she says. The back- ground must be put in first and, at one time because it must all | be wet at once and not allowed to) dry until the painting is finished. She seeks mainly to get a pattern | of the personality of the sitter and interpret it in a portrait. In her larger portraits there are often four views of one personality, each of which must be characteristic, yet all are grouped in one ideal, as eight | ETCHING BY ERNEST ROTH, ian building until January 29.

The nine American artists that Phillips Memorial gallery are little known to the public and to our museum collectors. They are: in- terpreting an aspect of life that as yet has barely found its way into the museum. These paintings are pulsating with the life of the thought world of the present day. To be really alive in our art ap- preciation one must have the open mind to be able to see the new beauties that the young artist of progressive tendencies is concerned with as well as the more established beauty of the painters of conserva- tive tendencies. It is a privilege to' have the opportunity to keep in touch with the most progressive work that is being done in ‘the art world of our day, which does not in any way detract from the estab- lished art. The matter of what we appreciate is, after- all, a mental attitude. We can surely extend our point of view to take in the new idea in art as well as that long es- tablished. Preston Dickinson, Charles Sheeler, Miles Spencer, Stefan Hirsch, Maurice Sterne, are on special exhibition at the’ lifted These paintings are in the morial gallery and are on exhibi- tion until the end of the month. Attitude Important. This matter of art appreciation is fundamental. We have, many of us, become rather set in our taste as pretty and attractive flower pieces, suave landscapes, and studio posed figures in painting and sculp- ture. Whereas art is as wide as the world. Wherever the eye of vision can perceive beauty there is the aspect of art and there is the magic touch of life. There can be no preconceived theories. This element of art is the measure of our civilization. It is as neces- sary in the city as in painting. Washington has such possibilities for beauty that can be developed marveously when we awake to it. It is our attitude of mind that is important. When we recognize that proper city planning includes well constructed and well § designed buildings and that these are a good investment from the business point of view then we shall come into our majority nationally. Washington should be developed to be the rival of the Eurgpean capi- tals if we plan wisely and are not afraid to spend a few pennies.

In cer- tain parts of Baltimore it has been successfully proved that hills, trees and other natural beauties can be adapted and made a part of the Planning of the city to the advant- age of all. The approach to the Key bridge on the Virginia side is an example of the point. It is essential for traffic facilities as well as for the proper approaches that this condi- tion be cleared and made beautiful. It greatly mars what would ‘be otherwise an effective and impor- tant approach to the city. The proposed Arlington bridge and the approach to it, which will be the entrance of the’ Lee highway is at present having the serious consid- eration of many broad-minded citi- zens. These approaches of the great highways that are being built are important. They are intimately connected with the life of the city and its development. This develop- ment along the lines of wise city planning is more essential than the tiresome erection of endless monu- ments which make us look toward the past instead of the future. It tends to make the city become one vast cemetery, as one observing South American visitor remarked.

In the near future at the Nationa] Gallery of Art an _ exhibition of | paintings from Italy is expected to be held. While it is not absolutely settled that this exhibi- tion will come to Washington, it is understood that Mussolini is greatly interested in having a representa- tive showing of Italian paintings come to America. The collection of Italian and American paintings exhibited together will be shown in New York and other cities. The Ital- ian artists represented will be Sega- tini, Michetti, Spadini, Michani, Saraloni, Oppi, Innocenti ani Dazzi. » % * ~% Kubinyt Lectures. Victor Kubinyi gave a lecture be- fore the students of the Central High school on his paintings and their meaning. There was keen in- terest in this talk and the paintings which are the pictorial expression of the emotions. The _ students guessed the emotions portrayed in the paintings without the use of the titles or explanations, showing thus a direct reaction to the forms and colors of the painting. The paintings will be on exhibition at the Central High school al] the coming week so that those who were disappointed in seeing them at the National gallery will have an op- portunity to seeing~ them here. ~ si m7 Cesinsky to Speak. * A lecture by Herbert Cesinsky on ‘‘American and English Furni-} ture Contrasted’’ will be given under the auspices of the Washing- ton Fine Arts society in the audi- torium of the Central High school at 8:15 o’clock Wednesday night. ce ~ = « Showing of Bromoils.

Dedicated. The large memorial tablet erect- ed to the late Henry B. F. Mac- farland, president of the board of commissioners for ten years, by Henry K. Bush-Brown is a simple and dignified tablet and an excel- lent likeness of the late commis- sioner. It is in good taste and shows fine craftsmanship. Mr. Bush-Brown is particularly good in bas-relief and this is no exception to his art. It is in white marble and five feet high. It was unveiled ge appropriate ceremonies last week. 6 . . Small Broadcasters Fight Air “Monopoly” Muscatine, Iowa, Jan. 16 (By A. P.)..—-To protest against what it contends as developing into a-mo- nopoly of the afr by high-power broadcasting stations, the Ameri- can Broadcasters’ association, new- ly organized; has announced that it planned to ‘‘keep the air always free.””’ Members of the association are owners of the smaller or lower power stations. Stressing .the statement that many of the programs of the small- er stations have a “familiar and homelike atmosphere,’’ Norman Ba- ker, of station KTNT, president of the association, pointed out that many of the smaller stations have been placed in a wave band ranging from 200 to 275 meters, giving as many as 25 stations the same wave- length and increasing interstation interference. “Other stations,’’ he added, “have j been favored by putting only one or two on a wave-length. The American Broadcasters are in favor of the chain stations going on one wave-length so as not to monopo- lize the entire dial of the receiver.”’ 4 FORECASTS. PRESENTED IN NEW BOOKS The E. P. Dutton Co.,’ publishers of New York, has issued a new set of attractive books in the interest- ing series of ‘‘Today and Tomor- row,’ which are forecasts of the fu- ture in law, economics, morals and medicine. Experts in these several lines have predicted the progress of man- kind which will be noted within the next few cycles of human existence. The books are: “Ouroboros, or the Mechanical Extension of Mankind,’’ by Garet Garrett. “‘Lycurgus, or the Future of Law,’’ by E. S. P. Haynes. *“‘Pygmalion, or the Doctor of the Future,’ by R. M. Wilson. “Thrasymachus, or the Future of Morals,’’ by C. E. M. Joad. Mr. Garrett, in ‘‘Ouroboros,”’ calls attention to the growing use of machine power in the industrial world and says the equipment al- ready in existence, if worked at ca- pacity for one year, would glut the markets of the world and that for- eign markets are narrowing, not widening. He declares that every manufacturing nation has a surplus and is looking fora market. In Great Brtiain and France not only is there a surplus of machine power, but of man power, as well. Speaking of the machine, Mr. Gar- sett says: ‘“‘And now for hundreds of mil- lions of people hitherto inferior in rather than becoming part of the in-| status the machine is a symbol of liberation, freedom, independenée, recognition, racial power. Japan is the thrilling example in Asia. Did it not deliver her from a thralldom imposed by the Western powers in the,interest of their own trade? Did their equal, a nation to be feared ?’’ As Mr. Garrett truthfully con- Washington will become a true in- | ready to hand. ‘cludes: “In any light,.man’s fur- ther itask is Jovian. That is to learn how best to live with these powerful creatures of his mind, how to give their fecundity a law and _ their functions a rhythm, how. not to employ them in error against ih imself—since he can not live with- | out them.’ There is a most original thought in ‘‘Pygmalion,”’ dealing with the doctor of the future, by R. M. Wil- son, who takes as his starting point the recently developed theory that symptoms are not necessarily a sign of disease. That doctors will be more popular in the future than they are now, of the student of this question. Mr. Wilson sees a great aid to medical science in what might be called psycho-therapy, and to a lim- ited extent in faith healing. ‘‘The medicine of the future,’’ he writes, ‘‘will not, I think, remain blind to ‘these vast stores of help which lie Once upon a time, the priest was the doctor; tomor- row the doctor may well become the priest, in a new sense of the word.

A new liberty of action is a Sign of the growth of economic in- dependence among women, and the practice of birth control, but on the other hand a wave of Puritanism is also due, according to this author, which will manifest itself in‘ intol- erance and heresy hunting. The battle between the new tyranny of convention and new liberty of ac- tion, after a torrent of blue laws will, the author maintains, probably lead to a real religious revival from which will spring a new morality, in which all men may believe and which the majority will practice. What of the future of law? That is vitally important in this age of ‘lawlessness and multiplex laws. E. |S. P. Haynes, a distinguished Eng- lish attorney in ‘‘Lycurgus,”’ out- lines possible future changes in di- vorce, criminal, corporation and private international law as con- cerns the English-speaking nations of the world. He has contrasted American and British legal methods in ah entertaining manner and 'throws a few polite: bricks at Amer- ican prohibition in passing. He holds that ‘‘democracy values equality more than liberty, and the great war destroyed many individ- ual privileges which have not yet been restored.”’ In the courts of domestic rela- tions existing in some American ‘cities the author finds much of good. He predicts that within 50 years courts of this description will not only have divorce jurisdiction, but will also have the same powers as the chancery judges now have 'over a ward of court. Speaking of marriage laws of the future in England, Mr. Haynes ex- presses the view ‘‘that marriage laws will become more rational, that legitimation by subsequent marriage will become law in Eng- land and Wales, as well as in Scot- land; that there will be a law of adoption as on the continent, and that there will be a system of di- | vorce by consent recognized as such as well as divorce for matrimonial | offenses.’ Latest Books Tersely Reviewed THE SEVENTH PASSENGER. By Alice MacGowan and Perry New- berry. (Frederick Stokes Co., New York.) Political trickery, interwoven <with mystery, including the imper- sonation of a candidate who had been kidnaped on the eve of the election, make this book interesting. Not until the last chapter is the mysterious disappearance from the automobile of the candidate ex- plained, although throughout the entire book the reader, if clever, may catch an inkling of how the story is going to end. There is romance and daring in this tale to make it properly balanced for the reading public of this type of fic- tion. In plates it is somewhat over- drawn, but who likes to read a thriller in which the of the writer has not been given full scope? SLEEPING DOGS. By Mabel Barnes -- Grundy. (Frederick Stokes Co., New York.) How the slumbering dggs of hu- man nature were aroused from their sleep is cleverly teld in this witty story. It all began when Pen- elope Dingle, aged 40 years, lost patience with her scientifically and work-absorbed sexagenarian hus- band Adam and decided to run away to Switzerland with Sylvia, 25 years old, exasperated fiancee of shell-shocked John and rid themselves of ennui, discovered the ‘‘flu’’ and suppressed boredom instead. In the meantime John and Adam have put their heads together and the returning wives fiiid them ab- sorbed in the dansants. They have both become fit by strenuous diet and exercise and lead their Penel- ope and Sylvia a dance at a pace the two women acknowledged they can not keep pace with. With fem- inine intuition the women suspect that the activities of the two men are simply for a ‘“‘cure’’ for them and make an:appeal for ‘‘quiet.’’ The four fall into the old manner of living, each believing that the other has not a suspicion that clev- er tactics have been used to make the routine of life seem desirable. CARILLON MUSIC AND SINGING TOWERS OF THE OLD WORLD AND NEW. By William Gorham Rice. (Dodd, Mead & Co., New York.) “This soft music hovers over street and tree and city wall.” No one but a lover of masic who has traveled far and seen the effect carillons and singing towers have upon the communities within sound of their sweet cadences could have written this fascinating book. The author has handled his subject with the thought uppermost in his mind that a carillon is as precious as a violin. made by Stradivarius. In the United States and Canada alone there are sixteen examples of this most majestic of musical instru- ments. Many other earillons for imagination | Elverstone. | They went out to conquer the world | but | Only are singing towers coming to be recognized as appropriate for in- dividual memorials and as the most |noble and enduring way in which to perpetuate recollection of pa- triotic service in the great war, but thoughtful musicians also and those 'interested in public welfare are coming to appreciate the beauty of towers crowned with the carillons as a splendid contribution to mu- nicipal and community life. The book is dedicated ‘‘To those lovers of singing towers, Baron E. De Cartier de Marchienne, Belgian Ambassador to the United States, and Jonkheer Dr. A. C. D. De Graeff, Minister of the Netherlands to the United States, whose ability, courtesy' and understanding are constantly making the Old World better known to the New. The book not only described the ‘famous carillons of the world but ‘their histories and brings out most ‘cleverly the influence they have had ‘on the history itself. There is also a most interesting description, of the manufacture .of the bells, meth- ods of playing and the entire art as relates to carillons. Most of the famous poets have sung aft least one song inspired by the sweet chim- ing of bells and many of these are reprinted in this volume. INFLUENCING HUMAN BEHAYV- IOR. By Prof. H. A. Overstreet. (The People’s Institute Publish- ing Co., New York city.) Can human behavior really be ‘influenced? ? Is it possible to interest ‘our fellows to build up habits of favorable response to lead and ad- just and control, in short, to become “skilled artists in the enterprise of life?’ This is the problem which Prof. Overstreet has endeavored to solve for the good of humanity. “Life is many things,’’ he de- clared. “It is food getting, shade- tree getting, playing, fighting, as- piring, hoping, sorrowing, but at the center of it all, it is this: It is the process of getting ourselves be- lieved in and accepted. “The blunderer in life is he, who, wishful to capture the interests and enthusiasms of people, to get them to think and work along with him, is able only to capture their indif- ference or their antagonism.” The book gives an entirely new insight into the whole field of hu- man conduct by the application of scientific reasoning.

That these women are there at all, when all is said and done, is largely through the grace of Susan B. Anthony and her pioneer sisters of suffrage, who blazed the trail of equal rights for American .woman- hood. If the purpose of the patriotic women of the Susan B. Anthony ful conclusion, before many years memorial to this Grand Old Wom- an of America. Why not? It is the age of wom- an—even husbands do not dispute that most obvious fact—and femi- ninity can make no more graceful gesture than one of tribute to the women on whose shoulders, like those of Atlas, they have been lift- ed to their present proud estate. In “The Great Woman States- man,’’ by Nanette B. Paul etn gage Paulus Corporation, New York), a brief but comprehentive sb At ig phy, an abstract of the “Life and Work of Susan B. Anthony,” pre- pared by permission of the author, Ida Husted Harper. The publica- tion in this form is to give each member of the foundation a work- ing knowledge of the great woman whose memory they are organized to commemorate. Dr. Paul is a Washington woman, and the author of several other vol- umes of undoubted merit, notably **Paul’s Parliamentary Law” and) “The Heart of Blackstone,’’*so she brought a trained pen to this labor of love. In the light of the present free- dom of American women it is. diffi- cult for those of the present genera- tion to loék back and realize the status of womankind half a century Or more ago. Perhaps 50 years from now other commentators will say the same thing about 1925- 1926. Yet while we have many sit- uations to be remedied, the prog- ress in the last half century has been monumental. For example, every woman school teacher who enjoys equal pay with men per- forming. equal’ service can thank Susan B. Anthony for lighting the torch of protest on this matter. CAREER IS TRACED. In 1853 Susan B. Anthony, a question under discussion,” was Miss Anthony’s bombshell reply. For half an hour the astonished convention debated the issue as to whether or not Miss Anthony should be heard. Probably masculine curlosity as to what Miss Anthony would say was responsible for the small majority in her favor. The ice had been broken. Woman- kind came into its own in that dingy little hall, and its first fruits have already been gathered. Susan B. Anthony was not to rest until the status of womankind in Amer- ica, at least, had been improved. With judgment and single-minded- ness she resolved to devote all her energies to securing the vote for women. As the author of ‘The Great Woman Statesman” wrote: “She realized what so few un- derstood, that so long as any class in a community has to trust to an- other class, the disfranchised ones are at a disadvantage and are like- ly to be neglected or entirely ig- nored.”’ SAGACITY SHOWN. The political sagacity of such a statement is apparent to all. -It is the same doctrine that was behind the brave revolutionary dictum that “taxation without representation is tyranny.’’ Susan B. Anthony,. her associates and her successors, built upon it as upon a rock until the goal of the nineteenth amendment to the Constitution of the United States was passed and ratified. Memories still survive in Wash- ington of the heroic figure of Susan B. Anthony assailing almost single- handed at times the strongholds of Congress. Step by step she won ground; not much, it is true, but she was a mighty advocate, and where she could not convince she could at least win respect and the softened attitude which comes from it. At the time of her fiftieth birthday she is described as follows: “She wore a dress of rich shot silk, dark red and black, cut square in front, with a stomacher of white lace and a pretty little cameo brooch. All female vanities she rigorously discarded—no hoop. train, or bustle, pannier, chignon, powdér, rouge, patches; no nonsense of any sort. From her kindly eyes and from her gentle lips there beam- ed the sweetest smiles to all those loving friends, who, admiring her really admirable efforts in the cause of human freedom, her undaunted heroism amid a dark and gloomy warfare, were glad to press. her hand, and show their appreciation Quaker school teacher, a demure figure in gray delaine and poke bonnet, attended the state teachers’ convention at Rochester, N. ; Women, like children, were: sup- posed to be seen and not heard at such gatherings, but not so Susan B. Anthony. When discussion arose over the topic, ‘‘Why the profession of teaching is not as much respected as that of the lawyer and minister’”’ Miss Anthony rose and addressed the chair. “Mr. -president,’”’ she said. “With masculine compla- cency the official leaned forward and said: ‘‘What will the lady have?” “I wish to speak on the ida’s climate is frankly and exhaus- tively discussed; chapters are voted to the best way to get to| Florida by, motor; living costs; cli- mate and soils; Florida of the | sportsman, the golf player, the | home builders, the housekeeper, and | the pleasure seeker.

Of course there is romance and a touch of tragedy, for without these no book of fiction can really justify its existence. | of her character and achiovements.’’ Dr. Paul’s book is rich in anece dotes of the great woman. whose story she so graphically tells. She had the advantage of personal ac- quaintance with Miss Anthony and the rich store of Ida Husted Har- per’s life of the great leader from which to draw her material. The result is a readable volume which grips and holds the attention from the first page to the last. NATIONAL SCHOOL FINE & APPLIED ART din + FELIX MAHONY, Director, Main 1760 Conn.

POWER INCREASING IN U.S: INDUSTRIES Farmers Backward, Jardine Finds, Because of Too High Expenses. RURAL DISTRIBUTION HAMPERED BY COSTS. Establishment of a Central Plant on Farm Declared to Be Impossible. f “The adaptation of electricity as a means of power transmission has been perhaps more important to our indugtrial progress than has the development of either steam or gas | power,’’ William.M. Jardine, Secre- tary of Agriculture, stated in a recent address. ‘‘Blectricity has not only greatly increased the possibili- ties of the efficient application of power and the conveniences of utilizing it, but has greatly broad- ened the field in which power can be applied. ‘’7The electric light and power companies of the United States de- velop more electricity than do those of all the other nations of the world combined. More than. 1,900,000 new customers were added to the linesof the electric light and power companies during 1924. A recent statement by the United States bureau of labor statistics shows that the average cost of clectricity is 8.6 per cent less than before the war, while the cost of all other items in the family budget has increased an average of 65 per cent. It will be seen that under regulation, with increased cost of material and labor, the electric light and power industry has been able to keep the cost of electricity below the prewar level. ‘Through the joint research ef- fort of the electrical manufactur- ing companies and the electric light and power companies, the lighting censumer obtains 14 times as much light today as he got 20 years ago for the same amount of money. Another interesting fact is that while the electric light and power industry has increased its annual énergy production 10,000,- 000,000 kilowatt hours>in less than ' § years, the industry uses less coal than it used-.at the beginning of this period. Agriculture Handicapped. ‘“Agriculture represents one of the largest uses of power in the United States. Unfortunately, how- ever, agriculture is seriously handi- capped in the efficient utilization of this power. Seasonal timeli- ness of doing work is a much more important faetor with most agri- cultural operations than is the case with any other industry. Moreover, the greater part of the farming in- dustry is se organized, and most of the opepations are such, that the power used can not he cen- tralized inte large units as is the case in mogt other industries. “The adeption by agriculture of electrical digtribution of its power would be ene means of overcoming some of the difficulties if certain other difficulties connected with the distributfon of electrical energy can first be overcome. The relatively high cost of transmission line con- struction, coupled with the low load factor obtained. the mobile nature of many of the farm operations, and the lack of fundamental in- formation on which to base the charges for (ho current consumed, have prevented the wide applica- tion of this type of power to farm operations. The best information available would indicate that in the United States something like 600,- 000 farms are at the present time equipped with some kind of elec- trical power gervice. “The most serious difficulty con- nected with the distribution of elec- trical energy to rural communities industrial Harris & Mwing. L. T. SOUDER, newly elected president of the Electric League of Washington. seems to be.to get the average custo- mer to use sufficient current to give the central stations a reasonable re- turn on their investment without making an unreasonably high charge per unit of energy con- sumed. In most cases, when a riiral line has been constructed, the farmers have availed themselves of it for supplying lights to their houses and barns and perhaps for the operation of a few small ma- chines requiring little current, but they have not extended its use fur- ther. Obviously, the central service stations can not be expeeted to in- vest money in rural service exten- sion unless they receive a reason- able return on their investment. On the other hand, it must be recog- nezed that agriculture cam not utilize electrical energy extensively unless its cost and the returns from its use are such as to make the practice profitable. The farmer has a keen understanding of relative power costs as they apply to his conditions ‘and he employs only those practices that yield the larger profit. ‘Available information would in- dicate that the actual cost ef pro- duction of. electrical energy is in most cases a relatively small part of the total cost of delivering the power to the rural consumer. greater part of the expense is rep- resented in the high capital invest- ment for distribution because of the long distance of transmission in proportion to the sumers.”’ ‘ELEVATOR FOR BELL-RINGER iy | Steam Heat and Electric Fans in “Rockefeller Church” ‘Tower. When Anton Brees, carillonneur of the Park Avenue Baptist church in New York city. goes up to play the bells given by John D.

DURING LT YER 280,000,000 Bulbs Were Sold for Use in Homes, Offices and Factories. METHOD OF FROSTING ABSORBS LESS LIGHT 195,000,000 Lights Used in Automobiles and Flash- lights in 1925. An estimate of the incandescent ‘lamp business in the United States for the year indicates the scale of 280,000,000 lamps such as are used in the lighting of homes, offices and factories, John Liston, of the General Electric Co., anngunces in his review of 1925, made public recently. This is an increase of 7144 per cent over the previous year, and four and one-half times the volume in 1908. ‘Although the average wattage of lamps has varied but slightly, the average lumens or candlepower has increased considerably, so much so that the total light output is now 16% times that of 1908,’’ Mr. Lis- ton declares. ‘‘The prices of Maz- da lamps have been materially re- duced in recent years, due to im- proved methods in manufacture. The present prices of lamps are on the average less than two-thirds of those in effect in 1914, while the cost of living is now 50 per cent greater than the prewar figures.” Frosting Perfected. After extensive research and ex- perimentation, a practical method of frosting the inside surface of in- candeseent lamp bulbs has been de- veloped and the fragility hazard which formerly existed has been overcome by a chemical treatment. The outside of this new bulb being smooth does not collect dust as readily as does the outside frost- ed lamp, and is more easily cleaned. A further advantage is that the in- itial absorption of light due to the inside frosting is less than 2 per cent, whereas the outside frost ab- serbs 6 to § per cent. About 195,000,000 miniature lamps, such as are uSed in automo- &c., were sald this year. This is an increase of abaut 3% per cent over 1924. The production of the double- filament Mazda eadlight lamp stands as the foremost achievement in the miniature lamp field. It centains two 21 c. p. filaments. When one filament is lighted, a powerful beam is projected far down the road. When the other filament is lighted, the beam is tilt- ed @ewn about 2% degrees, giving ah excellent passing light, not glar- ing in the eyes of the approaching driver yet amply lighting the road for safe driving. The electric service companies of the United States on an average develop each year new hydroelec- trie generating stations with a total capacity of about 1,000,000 horse- power. rarree | OS LA, If Saving Money Counts—With You— Call en us fer ELECTRICAL WORK AND Electrical Appliances We'll Gave You Half the Uusual Cast.

EMPLOYMENT UNCERTAIN In the electrical industry, aceord- ing to BE. M. Harr, president of the Westinghouse Electric and Magnu- facturing Co., considerable develep-’ ment is anticipated in the eoming year. ft is» estimated that the in- erease in the production of electri- cal energy will be approximately 500,000,000 kilowatt hours, er 10 per cent more than the present to tal output; the purchasing pewer of the industry is estimated to be about $700,000,000. There is an increased demand for electrical energy for refrigeration and for industrial heating. For the latter application alone it is believed that at least 400,000 kilowatts of current will be needed during the coming year. In the steel industry electric drive is recognized as one of the impor- tant factors in economy of opera- tion. During the last year steel companies made extensive electrical installations and it is anticipated that as business improves the use of electricity will be still further extended. The coal industry, now the larg- est consumer of electric power, will continue to offer a large market for electrical apparatus.

In 1928 there was unusually heavy buying of such apparatus, but since then purchases of the large public utility eompanies have been below normal. One of the most serious eonditions with which the electrical industry is faced today is the intermittent demand for large capacity electrical apparatus, involving heavy capital, expenditures. ‘This results in a dis- turbance of labor cenditions in the shops where such apparatus is man- wfactured and makes impossible 4 uniform production schedule. A somewhat paralle} condition exists in. the purchase of supply apparatus by publie utility compa- nies. Durtng the first half of the year the demand for this product is about 26 per cent greater than dur- ing the last half. A more uniform system of buying throughoyt the year would certainly result in a more efficient utilization of man power, manufacturing and transpor- tation facilities, and invested capi- tal, as well ds lower prices to the eorsy mer. NEW ENGLISH POWER PLANT Wilford Station Serves Nottingham and 17 Other Cities. At Wilford, England, where Robin Hoed and his merry men may have celebrated aceomplish- ments akin to the capture of the sheriff of Nottingham, there is naw ene ef the most modern of the large electric generating stations in Eng- land. The first unit of the new plant, which has been under con- struction since 1923, was put in operation but a few weeks ago. So far the Wilford plant, which can generate 30,000 kilowatts of electrical energy and will eventually have a capacity «7 79,000 kilowatts, has cost £545,000, and when it is completed the total cost will be nearly $5.000,000. kt is intended to serve Nottingham and seventeen other urban communities covering an area of about 47 square miles.

-FRMNSOCEAN RII TESTS WIL BE HELD WGHTLY NEXT WEEK American Stations Will Be- Silent for Foreign | Broadcasting. EUROPEANS TO HALT FOR PROGRAMS HERE Announcements Will Be Made in Many Languages, In- cluding Chinese. ee By M. D. MEYERSON. Starting next Sunday and con- tinuing for one week, broadcasting stations in the United States and Europe will conduct international broadcasting tests for the purpose of determining advantes made in radio transmission and_ reception since the program of a similar week of tests conducted last year. The following schedule has been announced: i Hach night for the week-—Special prozrams from American, Ca- nadian, Cuban, Mexican and South American stations for European lis- teners, 10 to 11 p. m. Sunday to Thursday, inclusive— Silence by American, Canadian, Mexican and Cuban broadcasters in the hours from 11 to 12, Eastern time, to permit reception from over- seas. High powered stations in England and on the continent will be on the air in this period. Friday, January 29-——10 to. 10:15, Fastern time stations: 11:15 to 11:30, Central time stations; 11:3 to 11:45, Mountain.zone stations: 11:45 to 12:00, Pacific coast sta- tions. Only one group will be on the air ata time in this period. January 30-—11 to 11:15. Cana- dian stations: 11:15 to 11:39. sta- tions in northern U. S.: 11:30 to 11:45, stations in South U. S.: 11:45 to 12, Cuba and Mexico sta- tions. Only one group will be on the air at a time in this period. At 12 o’clock Eastern Standard time each night of the week all sta- tions will resume their regular pro- gram schedules. Foreign Programs Later. Complete programs of the partici- pating foreign stations have not been made available, but it is cer- tain that Daventry, England, the most powerful British station. will be on the air January 24 and Janu- ary 26. Union station, of Madrid. will broadcast January 25, 27 and 28. Thirty more European — sta: tions will annuonce schedules later. Practically all American. broad- casting stations have given their as- Surance of cooperation to observe silent hours and to-broadcast when scheduled, to insure a fair degree of reception on the other side of-the Atlantic. fH. The first foreign period, when all American, Cuban and Mexican sta- tions will be silent, will be next Sunday night at 11 5. m., Eastern standard time. On Monday night, January 25. continental European countries will be on the air; Eng- lish stations again. on Tuesday night. Regular programs during these evenings will. be announced in English, French, German, Span- ish, Italian and Polish. WGY to Be Tested. On Saturday and Sunday evening. January 29 and 30, during trans- mission from American stations. WGY will use its 50,000-watt su- perpower transmitter, its first feal test for exceptionally long distance. This station will broadcast special programs from 10 to 10:15 p. m. on January 29, and from’11:15 to 11:30 p. m. on January 30. Suc- cessful reeeption of WGY in Eng- land on other occasions makes it likely that the test next week will be unusually successful. Other American stations to broadcast are: WIP, Philadelphia, 10 p. m., Janu- ary 28; WNAD, University of Okla- homa, 254 meters, Sunday, Tues- day, Wednesday and Thursday: at 9 p..m..; KOA, Denver, 16 to 11 p. m. every night, with brief programs in midhour periods; CNRA, Monc- ton, New Brunswick, Canada, will broadcast a special overseas pro- gram Phursday, January 28, from 11 to 12 p. m., on 291 meters: 6KW, Tuinucu, Cuba, will broad- cast every night from 10 to .11 p. m. The Crosley Radio Corporation station, WLW, Cincinnati, will ob- serve its fourth anniversary by pre- senting a specail overseas program on 422 meters on January 27, at 8:30 a. m. and continuing for 23 hours. WHAZ, Rensselaer Poly- technic institute, Troy, N. Y., wilt! broadcast from 10 to 1 p. m. on January 25, on 380 meters. Many Languages. As a unique feature the an- nouncers will address the coun- tries expected to hear the program, in their respective languages. One announcement will be in Chinese with the hope of picking up an _ Asiatic listener-in. Concordia Lutheran church, St. Louis, from station KFUO, on 545 meters, will present speakers in seven lan- guages Wednesday at 12 p. m., the conclusion of the silent hour for American § stations. It necessary for listeners-in on this sdie of the Atlantic to note the hour of hearing a program, and not to confuse a program heard in a for- eign tongue here with one broad- cast frgm a European country. . Unless untoward conditions firise, the broadcasting tests dur- ing International Radio week should be especially favored by the weather. This is the belief of weather bureau officials: who say that'a more nearly ideal time could not*have been selected. Looking back over a period of years, the last week in January strikes a gen- éral’average of having been clear and as‘cold or nearly as cold as during any other single week in the winter. When the question of - wylolent storms during the last week fm January came up, the records showed that these disturbances in the weather. were no more coinci- dent to that week than at any other time in the season. will * be. _ THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, JANUARY. 17, 1996. SO Conducted in Cooperation With Pack Radio Clab and Amateur News the Washingt Redio C!ub. ington A novel idea is going to be tried out at 3DW this winter. Dr. J. Harfis Rogers has installed an un- derground antenna for Duvall, and this antenna is to be used for or- dinary amateur work and under normal conditions. Short waves and low power. We hope Dr. Rog- ers and Ted Duvall get the results they are looking forward to. Well, here’s some new dope. Parks 3ZW is running some tests on Short wertical antennae. He says he wants to put them forever out of their misery. Well, here’s hop- ing he has plenty of luck, but we just can’t see that the length of aerial makes any difference on the waves of the higher frequencies. A week or so ago we gave an instance of the wonderful receiving work done by 3PC on a twelve-foot in- door-antenna, and we were expect- ing a lot of reports from stations using long aerials, but they did not come in; therefore it may be said that short antennae are the ac- cepted aerials for high frequency work. So it appears that Walther wants to prove that short aerials are unsatisfactory. Well, at last it seems that WRC and WCAP have a worthy rival. Word has filtered through here that 3WZ of Central High school has been punching some mighty big holes in the already well-punctured air. that whenever they work anyone the answer to QRK is always given by a comparison with WRC or WCAP and the comparisons are very en- couraging, considering the fact that 3WZ is a station that uses five watt tubes. They are thinking serious- has a big job in front of him if he | Mills, the big gun at 3W2Z, says! iv“ of getting a broadcast license. If they do we are in store for some interesting times. Think of hear- ing the Gonzaga-Central football game broadcast by radio. 3BPP, whether he likes it or not; has had a slogan assigned to him. It is. “200 meters forever.” 8CKG has taken. down scrapers and regrets to say that they came down without crashes and that only six BCL’s were pres- ent at the ceremonies, anxiously looking on. 3APV says he doesn't see why. we should wait until dark before we QSO Europe. He worked British 937, last Sunday at 2 p. m, on the 90 meter band. This was done with an antenna system having a funda- mental of 144 meters, which seems to be a point in favor of long aerials. He also used AC on the tube. Mim! For the benefit of those who were waiting word from the tests on the new type of mercury are rectifiers as tried by 3AB,.3PD and SAPV, it may now be said that they are unsuitable for amateur use simply for the reason that they are hard to start: that is, the starting mech- anism would be too complicated for the average amateur. Other- wise they are great for our work. We would like to recommend the regular style 5 or 19 amp. tubes for your. use. Basim 38CKG .or Berry 3PD will be glad to give any dope they can.

The total was $1,793,924.95. These sales for December, in spite of the fact that the company’s more procured, with their November pur- chases sufficient merchandise, in their Opinion, to have taken care of the holiday business, clearly show that the demand for Freshman Masterpiece Radio Héceivers was far in excess of the dealers’ antici- pations.

In place of the usual cap and gown, these graduates will wear ordinary house dresses. They will receive their diplomas, not in a college au- ditorium but in their own homes and instead of having their sheepskins handed to them by a college or uni- versity official, they will receive them over the air by radio. The graduates will: be those who have completed the work and passed satisfactory examinations in the Betty Crocker Radio Cooking school, broadcast’ by several radio stations. Arkansas ‘Fiddlers’?

Modern radio cabinets are made with the same care and finish as fine furniture, and just as much pains should be used in cleaning}. and polishing them, if their original beauty is to be preserved. It is only necessary to-follow a few sim- ple rules in order to keep cabinets in the best of condition, according to experts of the Crosley cabinet factory Deters polishi a cabinet, the dust should be first wiped.off with cheesecloth. A mixture of equal parts of benzine and parafin oil should then be applied, with a clean piece of cheesecloth. Finally, all Spacer or the ofl would be thorougn- artist plays in ‘the A.

Scratches accidentally made through the finish, in such a way as to éxpose the natural color of the wood, may be covered up by the use of a little mahogany or walnut stain. After. the scratched or rubbed part has beén stained, a thin coat of shellac should be applied. This should be allowed to dry thor- oughly, and another thin coat of shellac applied. After the second coat has dried, the cabinet should be carefully polished. .

Ball Aids Funds. ’ The annual ballis the one money- raising effort of considerable pro- portions undertaken by the local le- gionnaires, and since there has been a heavy drain upon the local depart- ment finances every effort is being made to insure the success of the forthcoming event. .The past three months has. been marked by unusually effective work on the part of the department wel- fare and relief committee of which Past Commander Charlés Kohen, of the Vincent B. Costello post, is the chairman. This committee exerts itself par- ticularly with regard to the veteran patients in local governmental hos- pitals, and Past Commander Kohen . Was given an enthusiastic response at the department executive com- mittee meeting on Wednesday night last when he presented to Depart- ment Commander Peyser a report on the activities. Two entertainments have been given under American Legion aus- pices at the Walter Reed hospital; two at the Mount Alto hospital; one at the Naval hospital; one at St. Elizabeth’s hospital, and one at the Home for Incurables. An- other under the auspices of the Grande Voiture of the Forty and Eight for the District of Columbia is scheduled for Mount Alto. At the Christmas day celebration at Wal- ter Reed, music was supplied by Happy Walker and _ his orchestra under legion auspices. Cold Weather Relief Given. Additionally, under the direction of the legion’s welfare committee, especially since the cold weather set in, substantial relief work has been done. Appealing to their friends and others interested, the members of Chairman Kohen’s committee have assembled 467: overcoats, 208 pairs of shoes, 192 suits of clothing, 42 sweaters, more than 5600 shirts, 300 pairs of woolen socks and 75 hats. These have been presented to needy ex-service men, particularly to those-who have been patients at the local» hospitals and who have been: discharged to return to civil life. ‘That this work on the part of the American Legion’s committee is appreciated is attested by the fol- lowing.letter from Margaret H. Lower, fleld director of the Ameri- can Red Cross at the Walter Reed hospital, which has just been re- ceived by Commander Kohen: “It seems very feeble to try to thank you for your great help and many kindnesses in our work out - here. Never do we get in a tight place and ask assistance but we are sure to receive it from you. Thank you so much for making the hour of music in the patient’s mess hall on. Christmas day possible. The men were so pleased and thought it. was great. May we all, patients and personnel, take this oppor- tunity of wishing you a New Year filled with good things? When one does so: much for others, one is bound to reap one’s reward.” From Miss Janet B. Houtz, field director of the American Red Cross at the United States Naval hospital, Commander Kohen received the fol- lowing letter: “Ags field director’ of the Amer- ican Red Cross, I wish to express to you, in behalf of the patients and personnel of this hospital, my sin- cere appreciation of your kindness in helping to make Christmas a de- cided success this year. There was not a patient who did not receive a filled stocking and bountiful sup- ply of gifts, and we want you to know that your generous contribu- tion was a factor in making these men happy during the Yuletide season.”’ rn entreeer er et 4 Gargle Aspirin: for Tonsilitis or Sore Throat .

H. h aay cents. ments for skill and technical knowl- }pared to submarines forces the con- ‘| Adolphus | The following names have also Members of the military and naval committees of Congress al- ready are discussing the subject of revising the extra compensation for fiying officers, which now is 50 per cent of the base pay. One ‘proposi- tion heard at the Capitol is for sub- stitution of a flat rate of $75 a month extra pay to those on a flying status ‘for the first two or three years, with an increase thereafter to $100 a month, irrespective of rank. In connection with the gen- eral subject of flight pay, Rear Ad- miral William R. Shoemaker, chief | of the bureau of navigation, has | made the following statement to’! 'the House naval committee: | “At present the commissioned line personnel receives at the Naval | Academy training in the fundamen-| tals of all line branches of the naval profession and: later is giv en | specialized training and detail for'| certain periods in operating | branches as necessary, with subse-| quent withdrawals to general line) duties. The bureau considers av ia-| tion less specialized as to require- | edge than submarines, and yet few officers return to submarines after their preliminary detail, because the physical discomfort and character of the duty demands youth. The lack of a parallel between the periods of- ficers remain in aviation as com- clusion that the difference may be| due to flight pay.- The utility of an Officer in aeronautics, except for command and administrative pur- poses, probably is less than that of a corresponding officer in submarine service after the age of 35 or 40 years. “The bureau considers that flight pay might well be reduced to about 10 per cent and insurance against aviation accidents provided. in-lieu of the 40 per cent reduction. By this means economy in expenditures will be effected and the personnel Situation likely improved. A _ spe- cial insurance provision should pro- tect officers not naval aviators who may in the course of their duties take flights in aireraft or be injured in aviation accidents. * * “The question comes up in this way: Officers'in the aviation sery- ice who have had flight pay of 50 per cent additional have naturally got in the habit of living in a way which the pay of their rank did not cover. They are living in a little better apartments, giving somewhat better parties, driving, perhaps, better cars, and getting into the habit of spending more money. It is perfectly human that they should not want to give up such benefits, and I sympathize with them on that ground—that, having had it, they want to keep it. But whether you gentlemen want to give it to them or not is something else. But that is at the root of all the dissatisfac- tion—the fact that if they go back to regular duties which do not in- volve fiying they are going to lose the extra pay.’’ | AMERICAN LEGION | Ball Committees Named.

Consequently, organization com- ‘manderg, up to and including the battalion, have been directed to take advantage of drill periods to carry out the policy that all officers shall be given the opportunity to become efficient drill masters and instruc- tors. Company commanders will be required to give commands and ex- planations to their companies under the supervision of their battalion commanders and platoon com- manders to their platoons under the supervision of their battalion and company commanders. To Report on Ability. In entering remarks under the heading ‘‘professional qualification’”’ or ‘‘command”’ in reports of fitness, due consideration as to the ability of the officer being reported on asa drill master and in handling men will be given by the reporting officer. A board at the headquarters of the marine corps that has been consid- ering the cases of candidates for ap* pointment as officers in the reserve, and the qualifications of reservists for promotion, has made its report. The board recommends 3 majors, 6 captains, 14 first Meutenants and 85 second lieutenants for promo- tion. The board also recommended a scheme, which has been approved, that will give marine corps reserve officers reasonable opportunity for advancement. It is a_ seniority- selection system, in which the qualifications: of those in the sev- eral grades for promotion are con- sidered in the order of their sen- iority, and only these are promoted that are passed by the examining board. The board consists of Lieut. Col. James J. Meade and Majs. Edward W. Sturtevant, D. M. Randall and J. C. Fegan, with Capt. J. J. Sta- ley as recorder. A correspondence course has been approved for the marine corps, which will be open to reservists and give them opportunity to pre- pare themselves for examination for promotion. The successful comple- tion of certain subjects of the course exempts them from exami- nation for promotion in those sub- jects.

It has been recommended that one Year, Repeating Records, Has Two Cups. HEPBURN IS IN COMMAND The battleship West Virginia is repeating the records she made last year in taking trophies for superior- ity in gunnery. During the com- petitive year ending June 30, she won the navy trophy for attaining the highest aggregate in gunnery and the Knox trophy for general ex- cellence in gunnery. The _ short- range battle practice of all battle- ships was completed in the autumn for this competitive year, and the West Virginia ‘stands first in that practice. She has won the Spokane cup, presented by the chamber of commerce of Spokane, Wash., for making the highest merit with tur- ret guns in short-range battle prac- *|tice, and also the American Defense Society cup for making the highest merit in short-range battle practice with. all guns. (Jt remains to be seen whether she will take the navy and Knox trophies this year, for they are awarded on the basis of long-range battle and other prac- tices yet to be carried out.

This fund was accumu- lated as a result of a letter written in 1916 to the New York Tribune} by Marjorie Sterrett, then a 13- year-old Brooklyn schoolgirl, who sent a dime toward a fund for the} construction of a battleship for our navy. As a result of the publica- tion of her letter all Over, the country, the sum Of $22,500 was) accumulated, Following is the standing of lead-| ing vessels of certain classes in| engineering for the competitive year | to November 30: Battleships—Arizona, Mississippi, Colorado, Oklahoma, California, Nevada, West Virginia, New Mexico, Maryland, New York.

The eagerly awaited car, whose coming has been forecast in inter- views in America and Europe the past few months with Walter P. Chysler—the new Chrysler Imperial **80".—is now, for the first time, exhibited to the public at the New York automobile show. Heading the Chrysler lineup of cars, the others being the Chrysler ““70"" and the Chrysler ‘58,’ it is the center of attraction to person« interested in motor cars, nouncements has led them justly to! expect something altogether phe- nomenal in a car heralded as con-| structed to the specification ‘‘as fine as money can build.”’ In. offering this new line, Chrysler has been actuated by a de- | sire to meet the demands of those} who wanted Chrysler performance | in a car of larger measure. The! new Imperial ‘‘80”’ is a development | of the Chrysler ‘70’’ ,with refine-| ments and improvements arising | out of long-continued experiment) and research with design and ma-| terials of the highest type by the engineering department. Price Not Yet Considered, It is designed to go farther along every direction than the costliest cars of America and Europe. It is intended to assume the leadership in the fine car field. Time and at- tention in such meed have been de- voted to the questions of design and manufacture that the item of price has not yet been determined. It is understood that prices for the Im- peria] ‘‘80’’ will not be announced until later. There are six body types—phae- ton, roadster, coupe, five and seven- passenger sedans and sedan limou- sine. The bodies, built to Chrysler Mr. | sweeping in whose | knowledge of the significance at-' taching to successive Chrysler an-' ithe mud. | for 1926 | bituminous design. are naturally of the most complete and luxuriously appointed type, with special fitments and equipment in most cases especially to order for the Imperial **80,"’ But it is not alone in the matter of body appointments that the new Chrysler line is hailed as taking its place at the forefront of the world’s finest cars. With the idea of build- ing into it true luxury from every point of view, the chassis has been | designed so as to provide power, speed, comfort, unusual degree. : Comparison Not Possible. There are so Many which the Imperial ‘‘80”’ is different from other cars that no effort is being made to institute compari- sons. It is felt. that none can be made. To list the many things that have been done in an engineering way to insure luxury of power would, apparently, mean a cata- lougue of specifications of chassis items from stem to stern. With the idea of making it sim- ple for all who follow eagerly every mew Chrysler development to ap- preciate to the full extent to which superiorities have been built into the imperial ‘80,’’ salesmen, de- tailed for the purpose, will be glad to explain to all inquirers the many things that emphasize the differ- ences in this new Chrysler produc- tion. There are several things that every one who sees the car will want to know more about, because they are the fundamentals of the exceptional performance in the im- perial “80.” Extraordinary smooth- ness of operation, quiet and long life in the engine are assured by a combination of three elements that represent unremitting effort on the part of the engineers. A totally new crankshaft, uniquely balanced, en- gine lubrication of unusual effec- tiveness, and a completely new type of piston of special design, are high points within the engine itself. The fuwer plant has a specially de- signed carburetor, with particular simplicity and ease of adjustment; air cleaner, oil filter and gasoline filter; a new system of employing manifold heat in improving Car- buretion and a fumer to make cold weather. starting easier, among other features. New Desighs in Clutch. There is a clutch of new and im- proved design- and Gear shift leavers are long, as are the brake levers, so that manage- ment of the car is made far sim- plier. The frame is of unusual depth and strength and is braced by -a series of cross members so thet it is unusually rigid. One of the high points in the new Chrysler Imperial ‘‘80” is the nove] way in which rubber is used to in- sure. long life, quiet and perform- anee in this chassis. An ingenious engineering device which gives the Chrysler ‘Imperial "80". a new type of rear engine mounting, consists of rubber cushion mountings which prevent metal-to-metal contact ,and keep sound vibrations from passing through the frame into the body of the car. -The Chrysler designed spring suspension which eliminates side- @way is used in the Imperial ‘89’, Springs are provided with rubber cushion clamps, which envelop and ‘hold the ends of the springs, re- convenience, quiet | and performance, to an altogether Pp P | details in! \ These clamps are held in malleable brackets and serve a great variety of purpose. They absorb road shocks and prevent their transmis- sion to the car. They are nonrat- thing and do not require iubrica- tion. The springs are provided with tailored boots, which contain lubri- cation for*thousands. of miles of running and at the same time pro- tect the springs from water and mud and avoid the need of periodi- cal oiling and greasing. The famous Chrysler hydraulic four-wheel braking system has: been ' improved and refined. The graceful, low-hung bodies which characterized Chrysler body architecture in the past have been more graceful and their pleasing sym- metry. The bodies, hood, radiator, lamps and fenders are new and ex- clusive in their beauty of design. The interiors of the bodies repre- sent the finest and costliest of fit- tings and furnishings. Many of these accessories have been pro- duced at Chrysler’s special order.

Come in and inspect, among other impor- tant features, the latest Nash engineering achievement—the new “Enclosed Car” Motor. See how Nash has provided power, speed, acceleration, quietness and long life on a basis entirely new to the industry. Reversing general engineering custom which developed the motor to the open car standard of needs, Nash has created a motor which endows the closed car with a radically new type of performance. Larger —and with 25% more power — this new Nash “Enclosed Car” Motor gives to a Sedan the brilliant “liveness” and sparkling , than before. responsiveness that has hitherto. identified the finest kind of touring car action. In all those qualities dear to your heart— smoothness, quietness and flexibility, through the entire range of speed and power—Nash has literally re-created former standards. The thoroughly remarkable “pick-up” of this new “Enclosed Car” Motor is vividly evident when you realize that it flashes from stand- still to peak-speed in 234 less elapsed time ‘ Yet it is so economical that consumption of fuel has not been increased one iota. And the design is such that with normal usage you may expect the mileage to mount well up into five figures before you give the motor the slightest thought beyond ordinary care in changing oil.

SISSED-W MODELS ~ TO BE PREDOMINANT AT ATO SHOW HERE Smart Roadsters Holding Own Against Advance of Closed Cars. PLENTY OF FEATURES | PROMISED BY DEALERS Seats to Be Removed From Auditorium to Allow Max- imum of Space. Many eurprises and an abun- Gance. of features deserving of careful inspection are assured motorists who visit the 1926 auto- mobile show at the Washington auditorium, January 30 to Febru- ary 6, inclusive. The exhibition, which is designed to be productive of considerable interest, is being held under the auspices of the Washington Automotive Trade as- sociation. Although the day of the annual automobile show being the prin- cipal occasion for displaying new models has passed, it is still just as certainly a time for feeling the pulse of motordom, the show com- mittee points out. The models which predominate in the annual .exhibits aré certain to be the ones which command popularity among the owners of 20,000,000 motor cars in use today, and Washing- ton’s automobile show will indicate plainly the swing of the pendulum of popularity in the direction of the glassed-in car. The great majority of cars the. forthcoming show will closed models, in contrast to the years when open models predomi- | nated and closed types attracted attention because of their scarcity. Closed types have become exceed- ingly popular, so much so that one large-scele manufacturer of sixes has dropped his open models en- tirély, and asother equally well known motor car maker now con- fines Ris open models to de luxe cars. . The open model has not gone into the discard by any manner of means, but it has found its use- fulness in different ways. An im- pottant exception to the lessening interest in open types is the smart roadster, with or without rumble seats. But this model is being given some real competition by | in |} he | smart coupes, which often are equipped with rumble seats. One important reason for the re- doubled attention to closed. models is, of course, the lengthening of the motoring season to the entire year. Motorists no longer put away their cars with the first snow flurry. In- stead, they prepare for the change in season by giving the car the care necessary to its. use during the wintry months. An added reason is the growth of the two-car idea. Mo- torists have begun to see the wis: dom of owning more than one car. and this change in viewpoint has resulted in an entirely different at- titude toward open and closed types. Cars to be exhibited in the Wash- ington show will embody many of the mechanical advances made in motor car construction. Among these developments has been the lengthening of chassis life. Persons who labor under the idea that cars are “not what they used to be” should know better and learn from personal inspection of the newer cars that automobiles are being made much better than ever before in the history of the industry. Pres- sure lubrication is a common item of equipment now, and with wear- ing surfaces larger, it is a natural consequence that parts wear more slowly than formerly. Accessory displays will offer many opportu- nities for inspection of new devices which add to the comfort and ease in operation of automobiles. Staging of the show in the Wash- step forward in itself, in that ex- hibits may be shown to more ad- vantage than in previous shows. The entire auditorium building will be given over to the automobile show. All seats will be removed from the auditorium floor to afford maximum show space.

NEW DEVICE ASSERTED TO WORK WITH INSTINCTS Danger of Driving in Large Cities Much Lessened by Device. *‘Reo’s greatest contribution to the automotive industry,” is the manner in which Joseph B. Trew, thanager of The Trew. Motor Co., comments upon the newly-designed safety control, exclusively: Reo’s, displayed for the first time at the automobile show in the Coliseum. The new control, making split- second braking merely a matter of course, according to the Reo branch manager, is the latest achievement of a company noted for its engi- neering accomplishments, and for a long list of mechanical develop- ments which have been accepted jand, adopted by the industry as i standard. | “During the two decades of auto- motive development, Reo has been ‘one of the greatest and most con- ‘sistent contributors toward perma- inent betterment of product,” says 'Mr. Trew, “and because of the pro- ‘gressive engineering, tempered at ‘al] times with profound carefulness, ‘Reo has instituted some of the greatest reforms in motor vehicle design, manufacture and mainten- ance.”’ Safety Control Praised. “The new Reo safety control is Reo’s latest addition to the list of pioneering achievements and ‘it means everything to people driving in a city like Washington where human faculties and mechanical methods of contro] must be coordi- nated in the highest degree. “Theme are still some places where people can drive without much thought for their control equipment. Traffic is light and stops can be made leisurely. The service brake is adequate; it makes little difference for ordinary driv- ing whether the emergency brake functions or not. ‘*But there are other places—and these are much more numerous— x ore A a} 4 Packard Six Lubrication Now Almost Automatic Twenty-five years ago you walked around a Packard striking matches to light the lamps. the motor.

Coolican, President Connecticut at S Potomac 5000 where the driver and his equipment must be tuned to the point of high- est efficiency. Cars must travel, at a reasonably fast pace, but must be well under conffol, capable of stop- ping within a short distance when the necessity arises. In these places the emergency brake is not necessarily used often; but when it is néeded it must be right. “There is no room in any of our cities today for’the driver who is not alert, and no room for faulty brake equipment, “But while it is necessary that drivers be -wide-awake, there is ‘}nothing to be gained by complicat- ing their cars with equipment that works against the instincts, rather than with them. The newly-de- signed Reo safety control works with the instincts by making the very motions that fallow the sud- den discovery of potential danger stap the car. “Even though many drivers are used to driving their cars and feel every security in the world, yet when their instincts warn them that the car in whose back seat they are riding should be stopped quickly, they can be noted to jam both feet hard against the front seat or against the foot rest, and this same instinct wil) undoubtedly motivate them when they are seated in their own car under aimilar conditions. “On the strength of this, Reo en- gineers have. designed the safety control in its present form, making it possible for Reo drivers to disen- gage the clutch, and apply the emergency brake, all with that in- stinctive pressure which asserts it- self in time of danger. “Three-fifths of a second gained in setting your brakes when driving at 25 miles per hour means a sav- ing of 21 feet 6 inches in stopping. This means a lot, and the néw. Reo safety control makes split-second braking a reality. The service brake, which is external] and con- tracting, operates from the right foot pedal,: and the emergency brake can be op?rated from the left foot pedal. This brake is internal and expanding and provided with an equalizer on both drums. “The hand brake with which all Reo cars are now equipped is there for those who/fayor tkis equipment, and this line-up virtually gives Reo everything possessed by any other car, plus an added safety feature which is bound to revolutionize the braking systems now employed, and which are in common use.”’ NDAY, JANUARY 17, Ve sat hs tet a oe ab ts Shi i i RS ah SE a Z Gril Worse, hare pains De A ee RR aie bg, ae eget y Bri tttas ap Mees 6 Fe oan gs A a 5 h i ; ee ; ‘ m 7 VA ae yy oF es 1998. Endurance Record Made _ By New Car on Trip East Prest-O-Lite Co. Sales Promotion Manager Tells of Climbing Mountains Between Indianapolis _ and New York in Moon Model. What it is said is considered an unusual record for endurance is told in a letter from Henry Knip- penberg, sales promotion manager for the Prest-o-lite €o., Indianapo- lis, to the Moon Motor Car Co., in which he said: ‘Personally; I have always had a tendency to discount statements made by owners of cars due to the fact that the average human being does not Ifke to feel that his judg- mént has been wrong when he pur- chases a car. For. this reason he will very often tell you that he likes his automobile regardless of how much trouble he has had. On the other hand, I. am not to be classed in this category. Three days after I got delivery of my Moon, and with only 185 miles showing on the speedometer, my wife and I started for the Bast. We took the South- ern route, as it is called here, through the mountains, and instead of going on through to, Washing- ton, hit north to Philadelphia. ‘Some years ago, while serving as a knight of the overalls, I learned the dire effects of taking a new car out and expecting it to per- form like a veteran of the road. As a consequence, I purposely climbed fall of the mountains between Indi- anapolis and New York city in sec- ond gear, and I negotiated most of the descents in a like manner. I was very much pleased, as well as surprised, to find that we only reached the boiling point on three mountains—-each time [I was in prac. tically 500 yards of the top before the motometer indicated the dan- ger signal. “In checking the matter. over since, I recall now that each time City and then to New York. At no time on the way East. did we have any mechanical trouble whatsoever. Returning from New York I really had. an- opportunity to appreciate the kind of an. automobile I had bought from you. , “During the last nineteen or twenty years I. have. driven prac- tically every kind of a car at some time or other. I am very frank to say that I believe the Moon is posi- tively the best road car for its wheelbase I have ever handled. This is why I think so: ‘‘We left New York at noon on a Thursday, stopped for probably an hour and a half with some rela- tives in New Jersey and wound up at Harrisburg, Pa., in eight hours actual running time. We registered mileage of 219 miles. The next day we drove all day in the rain from Harrisburg to Washington, Pa., going through Pittsburgh by mistake instead of going to Wash- ington, Pa., from Greensburg. Our actual running time was eleven hours, the mileage 318, making an average of 28 miles an hour. On Saturday, we left Washington, Pa., early in the morning and at exactly 6 o’clock standard time we were in front of our house, a distance of 385 miles in twelve hours flat or 32 miles per hour. “On all three of these days our speed was constant, not flashy on reaching great heights and then dropping back to slow stuff. I never saw a car handle more perfectly. My wife and J divided up the driv- ing and I found the back seat a very comfortable -place for a nap on two or three different occasions. There we filled the radiator, we only lost is a sense of low hung security or about two quarts of water. I think this speaks very well for the effi- ciency of the Moon motor.

On the return journey our average was close to 20 and on thé second day out of New York we checked close to 22 miles to the galion.. I naturally changed the oil every “500 miles, but I don’t think we lost a quart through burning or leakage on the whole trip. When I purchased the car I supposed that the tools were.under the front seat.

We had the same air in our tires when we got back that we had when we left.” SUPERIOR BRAKES © FEATURE REO CARS Control Is Positive and the Progress Is Safe and Rapid. Probably the one thing in con- nection with the Reo exhibit at the show, which is attracting the most attention and créating the most favorable comment is the newly de- signed ‘safety control’’ which, to- gether with the standard method of \shifting gears and the presence of the hand emergency brake, also in- cludes an exclusive system of con- trol which is being pioneered by the Reo Motor Car Co. and for which Reo engineers have no hesi- tancy in making convincing claims. The new and improved Reo for 1926 provides standard gear shift and the simple braking system ex- actly the same as is to be found on other cars, plus an arrangement that means real driving comfort, rapid and safe progress in today’s traffic, and a positive contro] which, according to Reo officials, results in actual ‘“‘split-second braking.’’ Never before has anyone pro- duced a car providing standard gear shift afd a braking contro] that pro- vides the familiar handling of the standard control (service brake on foot pedal, hand lever on emer- gency) plus greatly increased speed and ease in setting the brakes. At least this is the claim of Reo en- gineers and, in short, the new Reo provides a braking control no other car possesses and in addition jt has the type of standard controls which is to be found in all other cars. NEW PEERLESS MODEL SEN RECORD RESPONSE Popular Priced Six-80 Offered Slightly More Than One Month Ago. re hd + Although they were offered slightly more than a month ago, the new popular priced six-80 models devel- oped by the Peerless Motor Car Corporation have met a response which is probably without paraliel in recent automotive history. “irr Apparently the new product filled a decided need. It made available to the great middle class of the mo- toring public an automobile bearing the Peerless name and built by Peerless with jealous care of its reputation for manufacturing fine automobiles. The buying public realized that the company could not afford to risk its reputation as a builder, of automobiles of unusual quality, by, placing on the market a product bearing the Peerless name but.hbe- low the Peerless standard of qual- ity. . The response was immediate. Dealers throughout the countty flocked to the factory and sought franchises. The pick of these, men who had established reputations for service and fair dealing, were giten the selling rights in their vicinities. The public was no less quick ih appreciating the meaning of the ap- nouncement and orders for the new Peerless flowed into the home office by the hundreds. Cutting, Larsen Co., Inc., New York Peerless dis- tributors, alone sent in one immedi- ate delivery order for 500 cars, . Other dealers wired commenda-. tions of the new car. They declared hundreds in their cities expressed amazement that a car of such qual- ity and size could be offered at $1,595, the factory list price. Fred W.

+ “TLSED-CAR MOTO OF MSH ENGINEERS: Company’s Experts Reverse Practice of Fitting Power to Light Models. RAPID ACCELLERATION Sti cally superior to ordinary respon- siveness and that of itself definitely hallmarks the new “‘inclosed car’’ iwotor as an outstanding. engineer- ing achievement certain to influence the entire future trend of motor de- sign. | New Protection Against Dust. -Another feature that is focusing the attention of visitors to the Nash showrooms is the complete manner in which this “‘inclosed car’’ motor is encased against foreign sub- stances. . Nash originally led the movement to protect moving parts from flying dust and dirt which is so harmful to mechanism and which is the biggest single factor in short- ening the life of the motor. From inclosing the rocker arms Nash quickly inaugurated improvements of stmilar character, culminating in this new /f‘inclosed car’’ motor which RETAINED AND AIDED Improvements Made. in Pro-. tecting Moving Parts | Against Flying Dust. | An exhibit that is attracting pro- nounced local interest is the new Nash ‘‘inclosed car’’ motor being shown to the public for the first time. It was initially intrcduced at the New York motor show and proved to be an outstanding attrac- tion. The reason for the discussion centering around this engineering development is the fact that Nash has here approached and solved the problem of providing power, speed, acceleration, quietness, and long life in a passenger car engine from a standpoint entirely new to the in- dustry. In fact, Nash engineers have reversed precedent in seeking to improve upon the performance standards of today. Since the beginning of the indus-, try it has been general practice for automobile engineers to develop their motors upon the basis of the requirements for touring car mod- els. Once they had achieved satis- factory performance, they employed the same motor in the production of their ine:vsed bodies. The result was thac che standard of perform- arce attained in open cars was never reached with the far heavier in- closed models. And buyers have long been accustomed to console themselves with the thought that no inclosed car could be expected to perform like an open car. Motor Designed for Closed Bodies. But that was not necessarily true, and Nash has deliberately set aside custom and engineered a motor spe- cially for the requirements of in- closed models. In fact, instead of building the performance abilities | of the motor up to the lightest car of the line, Nash has created a mo- | tor to power the heaviest. model and to give that model the kind and caliber of live, alert, powerful per- formance that has hitherto been linked only with the open car. In the first place this new Nash ‘‘inclosed car’’ motor is bigger, with greater power development. Meas- ured in relative terms there is ap- proximately a 25 per cent increase in this point alone. Yet so expertly has the motor been designed that despite the increase in power and speed there is such economy in the consumption of fuel that the mile- age per gallon remains at its old low level. his fact alone is of high importance because it means that the motorist now enjoys a far finer brand of performance without the slightest increase in travel cost. Emphatic interest also invests the manner in which Nashre-created former standards of acceleration. The sparkling rapidity now attained in the responsiveness of this motor is seen in the fact that with this new ‘fnclosed car’’ motor the elapsed time in climbing from one rate of speed to a higher rate is 23 per cent less than formerly. Driving a big Nash four-door sedan you flash smoothly from a dead standstill to peak speed with the identical ease and eagerness that characterize the finest kind of touring car perform- ance,. Thus in all those factors so close to the owner’s heart—smoothness, quietness and responsiveness clear through an ample speed and power range—wNash has struck a wonderful new note in performance with this “inclosed car’’ motor. -s In fact, there's: a “liveness” to the reaction of the car when you de- press the accelerator that is radi- | jis the most completely preserved from foreign substance of any motor on the market. Even the crank case breather arrangement has been scientifically calculated as. to. posi- tion in order to keep out the most minute dust atoms. And an air ‘cleaner is utilized to clean the air that mixes with the gasoline in the carbureter. The chief purpose of such design is to make it unnecessary to give the slightest attention to the motor, beyond ordinary care in changing oil. When usage is normal the mile- age may be expected to mount well into five figures with never a single need for the motorist to pay thought to the motor. Nash employs, too, a dust-proof bell-housing completely inclosing the fiywheel and the clutch. Ad- vanced practice is likewise discern- ible in.the Nash method of fuel fil- tration. Because it is known that the vacuum tank does develop sedi- ment Nash locates the filter between the vacuum tank an@ the carbure- ter. In this way the gasoline is thor- oughly purified just prior to its in- troduction into the carbureter. Lubrication is force-fed to cam- shaft bearings, connecting rod bear- ings, and main bearings and oil is also forced under pressure up to the rocker arms, where by force of gravity it thoroughly lubricates the rocker-arm mechanism. This new ‘‘inclosed car’? motor has a 3 7-16- inch bore with 65-inch stroke, a 7-| bearing crankshaft, and a 4-bear-| ing camshaft. 10,508 FORO CARS ARE PRODUCED IN 198 Total Includes Autos, Trucks, Tractors and Airplanes, Report States. 1,775,245 BUILT IN U. S. The Ford Motor Co., in all its di- visions, produced a total of 2,103,- 588 cars, trucks, tractors and air- planes in 1925, according to figures just given out at the general offices of the Ford Motor Co. Exclusive of airplanes, which is a new indus- try with the company, this is an increase of 20,033 automotive units | over 1924. In the production of Ford cars and trucks during the year, domes- tic plants in the United States as- sembled 1,775,245. Foreign plants of the company produced 136,461 cars and trucks and the output of the Ford Motor Co. of Canada, Ltd., totaled ‘79,289. Fordson tractor production was 104,168 and the Lin- coln:. division of the company pro- duced during the year a total of 8,415 Lincoln-cars. In the newest division of the company, the. air- plane factory, the output was ten all-metal planes since the factory was acquired by the company on August 1, 1925. The remarkable output of Ford cars and trucks was reached in spite of the fact that for a period of more than 30 days during August and September domestic production was almost negligible due to the intro- duction of the improved types. The same condition prevailed later on in the foreign assembly plants as the change to the improved cars were made in these places, some of which are just now getting into’ appreci- able production with the improved types. bie ee gay bi . : he i : : Bae, «Me ven bat, Fy WLS se y sie ’ 2 A ey Rs achh fin Ke ae tt keith Annas ot ASSy ri es. ob. fe hae?

Engine Efficiency. — = oe AIR CLEANER IS NOW ONE OF THE FEATURES Pistons and Pins . Lighter; Lubrication Made Constant and Complete. Many mechanical improvements, in the face of price reductions, were displayed on the new Chevrolet cars at the opening of the New York au- tomobile show, January 9. The nu- merous mechanical improvements, together with lower prices, coming at this time when high tire costs threaten advanced car prices, con- centrated attention on the Chevro- let exhibit. The price reduction was an- nounced several days ago by W. S. Knudsen, president of the Chevro- let Motor Co. At that time no men- tion was made of improvements to the car. These mechanical changes are designed to give even smoother operation, greater engine efficiency and smoother riding. One of the features is an air cleaner, some- thing which only cars of much high- er price have been equipped with heretofore. Among the new improvements are: Lighter pistons and pins; en- gine lubricating system of increased efficiency; special three-point mo- tor suspension and redesigned mo- | cushioned by tor head with larger cooling areas around the valves, all of which con- tribute materially toward smooth operation. The new car is well long semi-elliptic springs of special design. New Piston Is Lighter. The new piston assembly is about a half pound lighter, decreasing by approximately two pounds the total weight of moving parts in the cylin- ders. The piston is of the skeleton type, combining lightness with am- | ple strength and large bearing sur- | faces. | Constant and complete lubrica- | tion is assured by the new oiling ‘system which places the oil pump in the crank case where it is primed the moment the engine starts. It is driven from the cam shaft by noise- less spiral gears. The new motor head, with its larger cooling area, increases value efficiency and life. The generator now is driven from the crank shaft by a silent V-type belt which also operates the, fan. The water pump has a new mount- ing with larger bearings. Other improvements are: An air cleaner at the intake opening of the air heater; tension springs at the joints of the spark and throttle con- trol rods; greater rigidity in the dash and an increase of one-third in the braking area of the _ service brakes, which are operated by an, improved type of brake rod. Concrete Posts Used As Highway Markers Metal signs placed on concrete posts are being used as highway markers by the Massachusetts de- partment of public works. About 1,500 signs of that type and 109 town line markers have been erected. The concrete posts for the signs are made by workmen of the main- tenance division of the highway de- partment at a cost of approximate- ly $5 each. They are 10 feet 6 inches long, 6 inches square at the bottom and 5 inches square at the top, with the upper 6 feet 6 inches having beveled corners. A feature that adds to the attractiveness of the posts is a bronze seal of the State which is sunk in the face of the post one foot from the top. ‘THE WASHINGTON ee , Mi ey my 4 yes a pat ee ag Ek Soa d . ce tee 7 ¥ POST: SUNDAY, JANUARY 17, 1996. des eS?

To minimize this grunt you gen- tly press the gears together and feel them—tickle them, so to speak Many people believe that climb- ing hills in an automobile is merely a matter of changing gears and ‘“‘steppin’ on it.’”’ What they don’t know is that every engine has its best speed—a certain peak in its range where it —so that when they do mesh the lever falls in. That is the secret. What might be a successful climb can be spoiled by a clumsy change of gears. Every second of time is very important if the grade is steep and the car is losing headway. If you wish ‘o be an expert in hill climbing you must practice. It is not an uncommon sight to see a driver fail at his first attempt in going over the top, while at his second attempt the grade is easily made. But it is the driver’s fault— not that of the car. Better practice now because sooner or later you will want to make a tour to the West coast, and then you’ll discover that what the natives call hills out there are the highest mountains that you ever saw. ' OAKLAND SIX PRICES ‘NOT TO BE CHANGED Lists: to Remain Same De- spite Rising Materials Cost, Official Announces. In spite of the drastic increase of 40 per cent in the price of tires, ef- fective January 1, ahd the rising costs of materials generally, no changes are contemplated in the present list prices of the Oakland six; according to advices sent by C. W. Matheson, vice president and director of sales ‘of the’Oakland Mo- tor Car Co., Pontiac, Mich., to the dealer organization of this company. ‘“‘Regardless of increasing -costs,’’ writes Mr. Matheson, ‘‘we are delib- erately holding our Oakland six list prices to their. present+low levels, confidently believing that’in so do- ing we shall be able to build up enough added volume to justify our present attractive prices. Nes “When we announced the new Oakland six with over 100 improve- ments at prices $70 to $3650 lower : than our heretofore already low prices, we knew that we had estab- lished an entirely new standard of motor car value, which we believe has directly infiuenced the price adjustments which subsequently have been announced by others.” SMITH AUTO LAUNDRY Auto polished (best grade).......-686 Auto washed Auto ofled and greased.........-Q100 Spark Plugs cleaned. ..........0+sBB@ REAR 1514 K STREET N.W. —— Conn.

The driver who studies his engine and finds this ‘‘peak’’ is to be con- gratulated, for he gets the most out | his car—all the time. The average will stay in high gear on a hill until the engine near- | ly knocks its head off. Thy, we! don’t know, though it is probably that he believes his car can make that hill and he intends to do it or break up the bus. But when he does drop down to second or low gear—and he must eventually—the car has lost its momentum and the poor old engine must recover suffi- ciently to pick up properly and carry the car over the top: All of! which is mighty tough on the en-, gine and sooner or later results in|, a repair bill. There are only two things to re-| member when climbing a hill—first, | to change into intermediate or first speed early and quickly, dropping the clutch back instantly; second, retarding the spark without waiting for the engine to knock. Now this speed changing on hills is extremely easy to do—on a typewriter. In a machine it is diffi- cult—until one gets the knack. Hence hill climbing is an art. Once this art is mastered there is nothing to it. Good gear changing consists in equating the peripheral velocity of the wheels about to be. engaged while the gear lever is in neutral and then engaging the gear. If $3,000,000,000 AUTOS PRODUCED IN 1925 The automobile business is the largest industry in the country, ac- cording to the United States De- partment. of Commerce, the rating being based on the wholesale value of the products. The wholesale, value of the record 1925 production is estimated at $3,000,000,000. In the opinion of President Charles Clifton, president of the National Automobile Chamber of Commerce, the year 1926, viewed from the immediate automotive standpoint of the nation, or from the outlook of the average family, holds a world of promise. It will provide: Low-priced, high quality motor transportation; more efficient, more comfortable means of travel; continued devel- opment. of our national resources and foreign business which will help the trade of ourselves and of the world.

~ MUS ENGINES ~ CAREFULLY MEASURED NEW°PEERLESS EIGHT, MODEL 69, SEDAN Crankshafts Balanced by Use of Modern Precision Instruments. GUESS WORK ELIMINATED | Through the use of the most modern precision instruments, the crankshafts of all Willys-Knight engines are perfectly weighed, measured and balanced to elimi- nate all motor vibrations. The new method entirely revolu- tionizes this phase of motor assem- | bly and introduces a new standard in the smooth performance of the automobile engine. The old method of turning crankshafts by hand was rude, compared to the work of these new machines now in use by the Willys-Overland Co.

DOMESTIC RUBBER IS MADE IN TEXAS Factory Has Already Reached an Output of One Ton a Day. Marathon, Tex., Jan. 1! (By A. | P. ).—In this little southwest Texas | town domestic rubber is manufac- \tured from the guay ule plant, which | grows wild all over this section. A factory, under the spur of high rub- ber prices, has reached an output of a ton a day. The guayule is a shrub, three to five feet high, and resembles sage brush. Beneath its outer bark is a sap, known as latax, from which the rubber is made. The shrub is put up in bales, like hay and the sap is pressed out ina machine called a pebble mill. About 30,000 gallons of water, supplied by wells, is required to produce a ton of rubber. The plant is gathered, root and all, and brings about $40 a ton at the factory here. The finished product comes from the presses in sheets about three inches thick, 30 inches long and 15 inches wide.

SEDAN SI AWDARD OF U.S. By GEORGE GRAHAM, Vice President Chandler Motor Car Company. This is a year of particular inter- est in motor car body styles. Per- haps for the first time automobile bodies are receiving the attention they deserve. As/a matter of fact, the development of the. motor car in America is marked more defin- itely by successive and progressive body styles than by engineering changes. The ‘90s saw no body vies, as such. The big idea then was to build anything which would run. Even the first half of the first dec- ade of this century saw no distinc- tive American styles. European practice largely predominated. Side entrance tonneaus came in 1914 and were general the follow- ing year, soon accompanied by “Dutch” or ‘chauffeur’? doors—the half height front door of 1908. Many freak bodies followed, such as beetlettail roadsters, torpedo and boat bodies, toy tonneaus and sim- ilar designs. The wide use of closed bodies in this country was held back for many years by the fact that American de- signers took their cue from Euro- peans, and the Europeans leaned toward the open body. It was not until 1915 that designs THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, JANUARY 17, 1996. BODY STYLES ABSORB | ~ CHR DESIGNERS TODAY | Paris Is Shown Auto With Concrete Body (Special Cable Dispatch.) Paris, Jan. 16.—In placing your order for a new car, con- sider the merits of a snappy one- piece body of reinforced concrete. This sprightly little model of closed car made its appearance to- | day, and nota nail, screw,nor tin, zinc, silver, or wood entered the composition of the carriage work. The achievement is M.

The doors are of cement, with steel hinges. “Our cars may be heavy, but no metal can touch you. Try setting fire to one of them.

But price was necessary to quantity and the coach soon followed, a sort of glori- fied California top, at first, and later developed into a two-door closed type ag sales broadened and costs decreased. Thus almost overnight the closed car came into bigger demand than the open car. Outside of sport mod- els, the sale of an open car is more or less an event. The sedan is the standard car of America. BY MOST AUTO MAKERS | Nearly All Pleasure Cars Use New Type as First Equipment. BUSES ALSO AFFECTED Akron, Ohio; Jan. 16.—Tire manufacturers here report that with the beginning of the new year practically all automobile makers are using balloon tires as original equipment. Some manufacturers make balloon tires optional with the purchaser, but a great many do not even provide for the sale of cars equipped with high-pressure tires, they say. Comfort to the passengers, sav- ing on the car and greater contact with the road, which means better traction, better braking facilities and greater safety have popularized the balloon tire within less than three.years, according to tire men. A large portion of tire manufac- turers’ business is given over to the production of balloon tires, al- though there still is large sale of high-pressure tires, particularly for replacement on cars that have been out of the factory for some time. The bus and truck tire depart- ments of the big rubber factories are growing steadily in response to the nation-wide development of highway transportation in connec- tion with both freight and passen- ger car business.. A big increase in the number of buses and trucks in operation was seen in the past year, while a similar development is forecast for 1926. The latest fleld of the balloon tire, after its popularity in the pas- senger field was effected, was its use on buses and trucks.

One of the photographs for which Mona Paiva posed in the Parthenon before the indignation of the, Greeks against her forced her to hurry back to Paris. By CARL DE VIDAL HUNT. PARIS. VERYBODY who reads the cable dispatches from Europe already knows what a hullabaloo was raised in Greece the other day when its proud citizens learned that a* famous Paris beauty, Mona Paiva, had danced in the Parthenon under conditions which they considered an-eutsageous profana- tion of the ruined temple they hold in such deep reverence. According to the reports that stirred the indignation of the Greeks, Mlle. Paiva had begun her dance in the ruins which form the crowning glory of ‘the Acropolis with only a few of the gauziest veils draped about her lovely figure.’ One by one, as Paiva’s nimble feet wove their way though the rhythmic measures these veils were dis- carded until finally at the very climax of the dance the last veil was dropped and she pirouetted about quite as un- clothed as some of the Parthenon’s fa- mous marbles. Under screaming headlines the news- papers of Athens denounced the dance as a desecration of an almost holy place. “The classic precincts of the Parthenon have been profaned by a nude woman,” they said, “a dancer who brazenly dropped her diaphanous draperies and shamelessly cavorted under the great peristyle of the immortal Phidias.” The populace was aroused as it had not been since the close of the great war. Crowds thronged the streets to listen to speakers voice fiery demands that France be compelled to offer suit- able reparation for this “insult” to Grecian honor. - One of these impassioned descendants of ‘Demosthenes declared that Paiva’s action was a worse outrage than the bombardment of Athens by the Turks. It was worse, he insisted, than what the English had done a century ago when they robbed the Parthenon of its wonderful frieze and carried the stat- uary off to the ‘British museum in London. When the news of what Mona Paiva was charged with doing reached Paris it caused almost as great amazement here as it had indignation in Greece. Of all the many stage beauties she is almost the last one anybody would have suspected of being the heroine of such a sensational escapade and gaining for herself and her nation the denunciation of a sister nation. Mona Paiva had always been such a demure little creature. She had worked her way to the proud position of first ballerina of the Opera Comique through sheer genius, charm of personality _ and tireless energy. Never before had she been known to seek notoriety through displays of nudity or any of the other methods to which so many stars resort. | _“ It seemed almost incredible to her Mona Paiva’s Extraordinary Ex- planation of the Incident in the Ruins of the Historic Parthenon Parisian admirers tiat sny, modest lit- tle Mona could have danced in the Par- thenon one autumn afternoon as shame- _ lessly as the Greeks said. But they had to believe it when the ballerina returned home and calmly confessed that she was guilty—g uilty just as charged. And then Paris ec got a bigger@iees shock of amaze- ment than it had received when news of the incident first arrived. It came from the.story Mona Paiva told in explanation of the dance which 80 scandalized Greece and threatened for a time to involve diplo- matic complications with France. This story of hers has Paris guessing. The usually all-wise city can not decide whether it ought to chuckle over the dancer’s audacity in telling such a yarn or to take it for the truth she says it is and shed a tear of sympathy for the self-sacrifice she underwent in doing that now world-famous dance. Mona Paiva had gone to Greece for a vacation. It was the first one she had taken since three years ago when she ‘began to become the idol of those Pari- sians who are fond of the “‘ballets diver- tissements” which are sandwiched into their comic operas. Having long wanted to visit Greece, she set out for Athens, accompanied by her friend; Mlle. Dellys. The latter is an enthusiastic amateur photographer and she was eager to make pictures of Paiva, dressed in the flowing draperies ofthe classical dancer and posed in the Parthenon and other historical ruins. On ‘her first visit to the Parthenon Mona Paiva was fascinated by the clas- sic charm of the place and the magnifi- eent panorama of Athens at her feet. She met the curator of the Parthenon and gained his permission to visit the place every day between 12 and 2 when she could better admire the immortal monuments of ancient Greece and have an opportunity to pose in her dancing costume before Mile. Dellys’ camera. In those hours’the general public is not admitted to the Acropolis. The gates are closed. So far, so good. the plot thickens. Mona, according to the story she tells, had the misfortune to attract the atten- tion of an Athenian who proposed to her and wanted to marry her on the spot. This needed reflection, especially since Mona was in love with a perfectly good Frenchman of letters who intend- ed leading her to the Trinity altar im- mediately on her return to Paris. _ In some manner this Parisian, who writes under the pseudonym of Max De- lange, got wind of the assiduities of his Grecian rival. Without a moment’s hes- itation he dropped his pen and went forth to find and chastise the obdurate gentleman from Athens. The affair was quickly settled, as such things are settled between gentlemen. lange and Demetrios Papakakopoulos agreed to meet upon the field of honor, in this case the very spot where 2,000 years ago’ Phryneos and Aristagoras met for the first time. Rut from now on Max De- They chose swords, modern pointed swords, for their weapons and the duel was .to take place in the Parthenon when the general public is excluded and the gates are closed. It was the ideal location, stately columns right and left, and below them the sil- very waters of the Saro- nica river winding their way through. the old Hellenic city. Shortly before the noonday closing hour the two rivals. secluded themselves in the ruins and remained hidden un- til the last of the tour- ists had _ disappeared. Then they emerged and prepared to, eross swords. Now it sg happened, —_ae- cording to Mona Paiva, that she and her friend emerged from another retreat just about the same time. Mona slip- ped off her long man- tle and revealed herself clad in the softest and most transparent veil- ings imaginable. She looked more like a but- terfly than a human being, to judge from photographs Mlle. Dellys later made of her in similar garb. Inspired by the grandeur of the pano- rama and the golden sunshine that gilded the centuries-old temple columns, she began to dance, slowly and rhythmi- cally as if urged by the soft cadence of cymbals and lutes and citharas. It was the spirit of the dance come to life, the voice of ages finding @ sweet echo in the undulations of this young body, the apotheosis of charm and beauty and grace before all the unseen Muses of Mount Olympus. Suddenly the dilated eyes of the dancer caught the flash of steel. There, beyond the last column of the peristyle, not twenty paces away from her, two men were crossing swords. The one facing her was the Athenian who had fallen madly in love with her and want- ed to marry her on the spot; the other, with his back to her, was her lover, the man whom she loved and was going to marry. The Greek had seen her. She knew it from the sinjster smile that played around his mouth. Her lover was un- aware of her presence. For a moment Mona says she stood still as if turned into a marble statue. That Shocked Greece The very mod- est dancing costume worn by Mile. Paiva in one of her recent stage successes. Max Delange, the lover for whom Mona Paiva declares she sacrificed her modesty and gain- ed the everlasting displeasure of the Greek nation. Her brain was working madly.” A sound from her would make her lover turn around and expose him to the deadly thrust of his opponent. What could she do to save the man she loved? Every pulse in her body beat frantically as she looked on, frozen to the ground in abject terror: And-then, suddenly, like a light from heaven itself, a daring thought flashed into her mind. She began to dance, and as she danced she unwound and dropped one after another of the veils that cov- ° ered her. Slowly she swayed to the rhythm of some occult music, her eyes never leaving the man whose sinister smile had terrified her.

His sword made a misplay and in the next instant that of his ad- versary pierced his shoulder. How Name “Zulu” Was Derived The name ‘‘Zulu,”’ which means “sky” was, not further back than a hundred-years, con- fined to a small and insignificant, tribe under. the chieftainship of one Senzangakoni, oc- cupying that portion of a White Umfolozi yal- ley which falls between the Mahlabatina magistracy on the north and that of Mel- moth on the south. liant genius of Tshaka, a son of Senzanga- koni, that the numerous tribes at that time It was owing to the bril-, living in what is now known as Zululand were, by degrees, and yet within a dozen years, formed into a single, compact nation, by far the most powerful in South Africa. Because Tshaka belonged to the Zulu tribe— then, as it happened, tributary to the more powerful one of Mtetwa, oecupying territory on the northeast coast of Zululand-—the great nation he afterwards created came to be known as that of the Zulus, MAGAZINE SECTION Waskingtin, PCs Sunday, January 17, 1926 \ Latest photograph of Mona Paiva, the much admired first ballerina of the Paris Opera Comique. Mona nearly fainted. Her friend rushed her back to their little retreat and got her back into her clothes. Then the two women went to the aid of the wounded. They found that the Greek had been painfully, but not seriously, hurt. -Some of Mona’s discarded veil- ings were used to bandage him. That would have been the end of the affair, Mona Paiva says, if some Greeks had not chanced to be prowling about the ruins. From their angle of vision they saw the dance, but could not see the dueling swordsmen, and they spread the news through the city. Before many hours the indignation against Mona Paiva was raging so hotly that her fiance did not think it safe for her to remain longer in Athens, and he hurried her back to Paris. Qn her arrival home she confided to her friends the truly amazing story which is made public here. Also she announced that before very long the wedding bells of Trinity will be ringing merrily for her and Max Delange. The story Paiva told her friends was too extraordinary for them to keep a secret and soon all Paris was buzzing with speculations concerning it. But the explanation the dancer of- fered of her emulation of Phryne before the columns of the Parthenon could not wir her the forgiveness of the moralists who are waging vigorous war on im- modest and indecent dress on the stage or in any public place. The league against public licentious- ness, inactive for some’ time, got into full swing again soon after the news of the Parthenon dance reached its ears. Although it can do nothing to punish Mona Paiva for what she did in Athens, it is determined that no such exhibitions shall take place on French soil. The daring lengths to which Mistin- guett has carried the spirit of undress in her new revue at the Moulin Rouge have come in for severe denunclation from the league. It declares.that there must be an end to mney nudity on the 9 , Mile. Paiva veiled in a cos- tume similar to the one she says she was wearing when she saw her sweetheart and his rival crossing swords i:: a duel.

Since I held counsul with you all last I am out here in Old California, where I have spent Xmas and New Year’s with old friends and all the Rog- ers troop. Closed our fall Concert Tour at Boston, and will open again soon at Daytona, Florida* We will move the cots out of the public Auditoriums down there, including Palm Beach, Miami, Jacksonville and.all of them, and tell the Northerners of the delights of California. I feel sure that by advancing them transportation I can get the entire popu- Jation of Florida to come to California. “We just want to give them a treat. Just imagine when they step off the trains here and see a million people in one town, all with houses to live in, nobody sleeping in the streets or automobiles, everybody just going casually about “their business, nobody. trying to sell the other fellow anything. No embargo on anything being shipped out of the State. There is so much stuff raised here that it is not hardly fair to other States to have California supply everything. But I feel that I will really enjoy the I know people who live in New York City that don’t mind going to Brooklyn.

N a private repository after the death of Washington Irving was found a Jovely miniature, a braid of fair hair and a strip of paper on which was written in his own hands the words ‘Matilda Hoffman.” / These two words comprised the whole of his tragic romance and afforded at the self-same time an all-sufficient reason why he had never married. Further clew is found in the half-tender tone of the passage in Bracebridge hall, in which he writes: ‘‘I have loved as I never again shall love in this world. I have been loved as I never again shall be loved.’’ Serrow seems ever to be the companion of genius. In other words, it might be-said teo often. it is the price these gifted sons and daughters of the stars pay for the civine fire , within. It would seem that only through suf- fering ang pain and anguish do they acquire the understanding and comprehension that unlocks the secrets of the heart and gives the power to express in immortal song, music or art ail that they have gained through such sacrifice. OH! Ticket man had to look it up on some old maps to see where Florida was. Then, on the other hand, Florida people coming here would be handicap- ped on account of the Altitude. You see, Los Angeles must be 150 or 200 feet above sea level, and you take people that have been used to living below the ocean, this altitude would get ’em sure. So I am going-down to Florida and Jook the whole thing over, and if they have anything I.am going to give ’em credit, but I doubt if I will have to. The Governor has sent me Word that he wants to welcome me to the State. Well, that’s better than California’s has ever done. In fact I don’t know who is Governor out here. But everybody has heard of Gov. John W. Martin of Flor- ida, and I am looking forward to him showing me all the worth-while places. Then I will go off my myself and see the ones he don’t want me to see. Never look at a town with one of its prominent citizens and think you have seen the place. You have just seen what he wants you to see. I always get me a Taxi and go “prowling.” I just re- ceived a Book from Florida written by two) very brilliant Newspaper men, Frank Stockbridge and John Perry. It’s called “Florida in the Making.” I remember Balboa wrote one when Cali- fornia was just “In the making.” That one, as L remember, was in several vol- umes. Thig one on Florida is in one short Volume, so they got a lot of mak- ing to do yet. * * a ~ UT, as I say, I am going there, and I am going to be “unbiased.” I will be able to give you the really only au- thentic report on Florida that has ever been given. Surely all will agree that nowhere else in Tennyson’s poetry does he rise-to the sub- limity visible in his “In Memoriam,”’ while ‘“‘Adonais” and “‘Lycides’’ remain the noblest short epics in the English language; outpour- ings of grief, both of them, for the loved and gone. Virginians should ever cherish a tender feeling for the name and work of Washington Irving because of the painstaking care he took in delineating the Old Dominion’s great- est son—George Washington. % e /‘ * 6 HE career of Washington was the object of Irving’s lifelong study. The fact that he had been given his name by his English- born parents, great admirers of the man who had given the British a real defeat, seemed ever to appear to the vivid imagination of Irving. Born in New York city on April 3, a few months before Gen. Washington entered the city upon its evacuation by British troops, he grew up in the Washington tradition, hailed him as President and as a 16-year-old lad read with tear-stained eyes and a sinking heart the news of the passing of the Father MARGY!

The father of Washington Irving had been fairly successful as a small merchant .until the war made inroads on his business. Al- though a tradesman in the new land, he was of one of the notable families of the Orkney islands and could trace his descent from Will- iam de sewrni by armor , bearer of Robert Bruce. Washington Sovinn's: mous Was Boosh, Sanders, granddaughter of a curate of Fal- mouth, England, who fell in love with Petty Officer William Irving while he was on a packet plying between Falmouth and New York. After marriage William Irving eschewed- the sea and settled in New York city. Eight sons were born before the. laddie ap- peared who was christened with the great and honorablé name of Washington, ‘and he was the eleventh child when girls are counted as well as the more desirable—at that time— boys. His. tendency to letters as well as his love of society and humor were inherited from his mother, while his father contributed a love of probity and stern covenanter respect of re- 5. Pa ligion that is also demonstrated in his works. It is related that when Washington was in New York as President that Young Irving’s nurse took him into a book shop one day and introduced him to the hero, who was making a purchase there, and that the great general laid his hand in blessing on the head of his future biographer. Yet even such honor as this did not pre- vent young Washington Irving from execut- ing the pranks of the tisual norma! lad. All the mischief afoot in the juvenile New York of his day was shared by him. es” «¢ * CHOOL did not appeal mightily to him. He liked books of imagination and travel and rejoiced in the quaint folk tales of the day. which he was afterwards to immortalize in his stories, but arithmetc had few charms for him, although he managed to get some stolen lessons in dancing which would have brought Jhis father’s stout birch about his slender tegs.

The way the Rogers family live we are just liable to eat, sleep, warm ourselves all in the same room, so she got disgusted and just built the fireplace outdoors. She thought she had ’em licked. The Fire Department says, “You can’t,have an outdoor fire,” so the poor woman had to build a house around the fireplace. (And this is no joke; she did.) She built a log Cabin and today as you pass our place on the}way to see where Mary Pickford lives, why you will.see down in one corner of the yard a Log Cabin. Well, that was just to cover up the fire- place. Now we got it we can’t build a fire in it because there is not 3 windows in it, and we can’t sleep in it because the ceiling is too low, but it is a dandy fire- place; just as good as some of them you can use.

One (so- scribed by his brothers was too irksome and he decided against a collegiate career and entered a law office instead. This, too, proved somewhat tiresome and Irving only played at mastering Blackstone, the family for- tunes now being on the flood tide and there seemed to be no special necessity of his applying himself too diligently to any given pursuit of+-the dollar, then worth penny for penny every one of its hundred cents. Irving approached literature through the medium of the theater. He had a great love of music and early he began visiting the the- aters of Little Old New York. His stern Cal- vinistic father disapproved of the play and so Washington Irving learned to sandwich family prayers at 9 each night with the sec- ond acts of plays, climbing out of his bed- room window to the roof and hence by per- ‘ilous gutter to the street. It soon developed that the lad’s dislike of routine or serious study was due to a frail constitution and when he showed signs of pulmonary disease he was sent on hunting expeditions in the Sleepy Hollow region, which he was afterward to make famous, and then to visit a married sister in Albany. 1 ¢ poe | o:.:| a AI Ne ee pee called) Inspector looks at it, perhaps he is an Ex-Bartender or saloonkeeper, and he says it will hold So many thousand pounds.

I shouldn’t talk about a grandstand falting, for two women used my feet as their grandstand, and I deliberately tried to pull them out from under them. But the Football game in the after- noon made up for it all. ALABAMA generally has 24 Votes. Well, they lost 4 of them since the Democratic Conven- tion, but they arrived here with 20 of them. Washington couldn’t muster but 19, so Alabama was nominated on the third ballot. It was the first game ] had seen since I saw Tuskegee Institute beat Alabama Normal at Montgomery, Alabama, last fall. -I could tell from the way they played that the whole of Alabama, regardless of color, sex, or previous condition of servitude was a football fool. And if that Washington thinks it was a fluke (and as Northerners don’t draw the col- or line) why I will bet my last piece of rope and Chewing Gum that “Old Tus- kegee” (the monument to Booker T. Washington) can come out here apd confirm the victory. I only hope Jeff Davis and Stonewall Jackson had a Ra- dio New Year’s Day.. They will be will- ing to get static the rest of their lives.

THE WASHINGTON. POST : “SUNDAY, J ANUARY 17, 1926. Why a iad Rhode corte Clergy- man Thinks They Ought to Be Required } By Law Whenever Husbands and Wives 2 The former Elsie Moore, of *s* Brooklyn, whose frequent and often lengthy vacations from her «** husband, the Duke of Torlonia, *: could not prevent their divorce HE genera] assembly of the State of Rhode Island may be asked at its next session to pass laws making ‘‘marriage yacations’’ compulsory when husbands and Wives do not get along wel! together. - The proposed statutes would require quar- -seling love mates to take a vacation from each other while a court of domestic relations in- vestigated the causes of the trouble between them and sought out some way of removing them and bringing the couple together-again in‘marital harmony. Under this new arrange- “Thent ho one would be allowed to apply for divorce until after a marriage vacation had “peen taken and the specially constituted cour had found it impossible to bring about a rec- oncillation. This is the’ novel plan advocated by ihe Rey. Frederick B. Cole, former State senator and secretary of Rhode Island’s recently ap- pointed commission on marriage and divorce. He believes it to be a certain solution of the divorce problem, the surest way of checking the rising tide of divorce that is 60 alarming to many thought- ful and right-minded citizens. Thus far, the Rev. Mr. Cole is the only member of the com- mission to declare for marriage vacations with a court to see *“that’ the ‘‘vacationists’’ “Apert. until some way can be found of bringing them together ‘again in peace and harmony. *“ But there seems to be alii °#¢ aatrong possibility that, before) at time for the commission to pre-\* "gent its recommendation to the général assembly, he will have ron. a majority of his fellow ~memrbers over .to his way of ‘thinking.

But the fact remains ‘that hu- man-.nature is human nature. A vein of irri- tation often covers an abiding love. Give that irritation a chance to wear off by separating the couple for a -while,.and that love will show itself again. “If you look at tabular records of causes of divorces in this State, you will find ‘non- support’ heads the list. But these statistics are misleading. Many divorces asked on the ground of -nonsupport really owe their ori- gin to the fact that the man and wife have srown weary of each other. ‘Absence makes the heart grow forider’ is not a proverb to be sneezed at. “When I say that two-thirds of the divorce cases today are neurasthenic in origin, I am not. talking inadvisedly. Nervousness is a common attribute of those who are not satis- fied with their life and’ who desire a change. Give these people a chance to get a change of environment and kgep probation officers on their track, to see that they do not take advantage of their temporary freedom from domestic worries and you will solve thejr problems and make divorce unnecessary “The number of divorce cases in Rhode Island and throughout the nation is becoming appalling. In 30 years these cases have. in- creased 130 per cent in Rhode Island. And yet, the whole question is a social one, rather than a legal one. ‘Instead of placing divorce cases in the hands of two lawyers and a judge, I would place them: where they belong—in the hands of the principals themselves, with the courts and probation officers also figuring in some- thing ‘as vital to the children toncerned as even the cause of education.” If the commission on marriage and divorce Thyra Samter Winslow, the writer, recently happily reunited with her also literary husband after a vacation lasting eleven months. asks the Rhode Island general. assembly for laws making marriage vacations compulsory when husbands and wives disagree, the action will be the direct result of the scandal which recently shocked the State through the dis- covery of a ‘‘divorce mill’’ that supplied di- vorces to residents and nonresidents like so much merchandise. Two of the Rhode Isiand attorneys coucern- ed in the operation of the ‘mill’? are now serving penitentiary terms. The genera] as- sembly, greatly disturbed to discover how the State’s laws were being defied by unscrupulous lawyers and divorce seekers, promptly created the commission on marriage and divorce, which is now studying the divorce problem from all angles and which may decide that the best way to solve it is through compul- sory ‘‘marriage vacations’’ under the direction of a court. The plan proposed by the Rev. Mr. Cole is stirring widespread interest in Rhode Island, as indeed it is wherever it becomes known. For reasons which he thinks quite obvious, the lawyers of the State are almost unanimous in their opposition to it. But many leading churchmen and prominent members of wom- en’s civic organizations think the plan well worth trying. Although some of them thint it may not do all that the Rev.,Mr.Cole claims it will, they are convinced it is a step in the right direction. ‘Any move,’’ says the Rev. pastor of the Church of the Epiphany, in Henry Bassett,- Providence, ‘“‘that will put a statute on the law books of the State that will tend to re- duce the alarming number of divorce cases, would be a valuable contribution to the public good. “Of course, there is a wide difference be- tween the rules of my church, the Episcopal denomination, and the laws of the State. The church does not recognize the many causes for divorce recog- nized by the State. It would seem that such a statute as Senator Cole proposes would, for once, bring my church and the State nearer together.’’ ‘A cooling off plan, such as Senator. Cole suggests, vould be a good thing,’’ says Mrs. Jerome Fitts, prominent member of the Rhode Island branch of the United League of Women Voters. ‘“‘Many divorces re- sult from spur-of-the-mo- ment action, and if many couples were given oppor- tunity to cool off and aided in seeing things again in their true light, there would be far fewer divorces.’’ The ‘‘marriage vacation’’ plan which the Rev. Mr. Cole would have the law make compulsory when trouble arises between hus- band and wife is one which many husbands and wives have already given a prac- tical trial, both when there was not the slightest hint of a possible.quarrel between them and also after there began to be friction. : Several years ago the idea began to gain ground that one of the chief causes of matri- monial difficulities is the fact that husbands and wives see altogether too much of each other. It was urged that they would be in- finitely happier if they took frequent marri- age vacations—-went apart at more or !ess regular and frequent intervals and led quite separate lives for a time. This, it was argued, would reduce the like- lihood of once devoted lovers becoming bored with each other, as they so often do when they are compelled to live continually under the same roof and to share their breakfasts and dinners together day after day. Absence was counted on to make the hearts grow fonder and after theze periodical vaca- tions husbands and wives were expected to be able to resume life together with almost if not quite the Seth yetnem of their honeymoon days. Since this idea began to receive widespread acceptagee @ great many lovers have entered info marriage with the distinct understanding that vacations from‘each other should be a part of their scheme of life. Other men and women, alreddy married when the idea came into vogue, eagerly adopted it in the hope of Fannie Hurst, the novelist, was one of the first advocates of marriage vaca- tions as a means of preventing mari- tal difficulties. And she and her hus- band carry the idea so far in actual practice that they maintain separate homes. insuring the permanence of a happiness that, was still unclouded or of dispelling the clouds they saw gathering. The results of marriage vacations—when entered upon voluntarily and not under any legal compulsion, as is proposed in Rhode Island——have been widely varying. “In a great many instances they have proved powerless to prevent divorce and in many others they have seemed to hasten it, And yet there are numerous couples still living on the vacation plan, Who hail it as the salvation of their hay piness and predict it will be as long’as they live Fannie Hurst, the well. Known author, and her husband were among the first couples to give the plan of marriage a thorough practical test. They carried the notable vacations The Stone Bench noo By Philip G. Wylie ‘ | ETRE Whether or not you believe in this or that during your life seems to make mighty little difference. Have you noticed, for instance; how small the influence of your vote is when you go down to the polls—pardon, machine —-and pull your lever? Or that Christmas always came around whetber or not you be- lieved in Santa Claus? Take divorce, then. There’s a question on which it is possible to take two, if not twenty, sides. What do you believe? Well, to be blunt, I don’t agree with you. In the first place but let’s not argue. This is not a point in question— it is simply an illustration. He said it down in the garden on the stone bench, ever so sweetly and softly, much as it is said in books, and without falling into the pond as they do in the funny papers and the movies. First he said, ‘“‘I love you,” and when Kay said, YI love you, too,” he said, “When will you marry me?” Simple, isn’t it? You just say, Will you” and she says, I will. And there you are— for better or for worse, for Paris or scarlet fever, for the primrose or the straight and narrow path. Who knows which one he has taken until asking to have dresses hooked and bow ties retied has become a habit? It was about then—when the habit was well formed and Don had quit noticing Kay’s new hats, that weeds began to grow in their garden of Eden. I think that it was “You look terrible’ that started it all. Kay came down to breakfast after a party had kept them up until late the night before and Don said it. “You look terrible.’’ “IT feel terrible,’’ she answered. “Why didn’t you stay in bed, then?’’ “T have just as many important things to do here at home as you have in your office, Don, and you know it.” ‘Yes. And if you eat any more 2-pound boxes of chocolate creams you'll have to do work in a gymnasium to keep from getting fat.” “T’m not fat!” ‘“‘Who said you were?” .“*¥ou. did.”’ “I didn’t. Anyway, you look terrible.” Kay looked at Don with a flicker in her eye and answered, ‘Well, I didn’t want to go on your old party, anyway.’ Don had just discovered that his team had won from the daily paper which the maid had put on the breakfast table, and he wag busy with a pencil, figuring out on ‘the tablecloth how much he had made out of the pool at the office. “T wish you wouldn’t mark up the table- cloth.”’ “It'll all come out in the wash.’’ Let’s stop. I hate family quarrels, and the fheipient unrest that rapidly grew in the breasts of Don and Kay amounted to a per- petual one. First, after that morning, there were seasons of longer or shorter duration when they did not speak to each other. Then one would go out and the other would stay at home. Jealousy. After that, two houses, living apart, and finally lawyers and the di- vorce courts. ° Kay went back to live with her family in the suburbs. Don took a small apartment nearer to ‘his office than their house had been. That completes a cyole. He used to come back to his apartment in the evening, swathe his weary feet in soft leather slip- pers, and lie back in his most comfortable chair, reflecting what a delight it was to be a bachelor again. What difference did it make if, once in a while, he wondered what Kay was doing and if-she had as many suitors now as she did before he married her. What difference did it make if Kay occa- Sionally walked out into the garden and sat down on the stone bench, idly, mind you. It would, naturally, occur to her that Don had proposed to her there. She might, possibly, remember what a dashing young man he had been when she first met him. Those things happen to divorced people, and they are all right. When they had been divorced for a whole year, Don decided that he should give a little party to celebrate. It would be a stag party, in his apartment, he decided, and so he called up a number of friends. Bill and his wife were going to the theater. Jack had a new baby and said that he never intended to go to a stag party again in his life. Both of them seemed to be very happy, and he realized with a sudden, sickening feel- ing that most of his friends would be tied up in similar ways. He gave up the idea of a party. For perhaps half an hour he sat reading and then he went out to supper. A year ago I was divorced from my wife, he thought. I ought to have a good dinner on the strength of that. But the dinner was not as good as he had hoped it would be, and he was very lonely. Then, while he was sipping that last of his demitasse, he decided quite unexpect- edly to take a train out to Maple Hill, which was the suburb where Kay lived. In order, of course, to visit a business acquaintance of his who, he remembered vaguely, had asked him to drop out to Maple Hill to call any time. Don was on the Maple Hill train before he realized that he could remember nejther the name of the business acquaintance nor his address. He might as well go qn ‘to Maple Hill, though, because he would in all prob- ability recall the name before he got there. Anyway, it would be nice out there, and he could take a walk. When he stepped from the train, the sky was just beginning to take on the last shade of blue that comes before it is actually dark. The air was clean and fresh after the city. Now, if you walk far enough out on the main street, you pass by Kay’s house, which is set back from the road behind several large trees. Don happened to pass her house. It would be funny, he thought, to sneak out to the garden and see if it looks the same as it did when I was fool enough to propose to her. The idea had scarcely passed through his mind when he found that he had opened the gate and wag walking cautiously around the house on the narrow flag stones. A frog croaked. He wondered if it was the same old frog that had been there three years ago. Then he rounded the lilac clump and there was the stone bench. Down oh her knees with her head on the stone was Kay, crying softly. A lump came into Don’s throat. What he said, how it was he found himself sitting with his arms around her, he never knew. But he recalled an old fragment that had seemed very-sweet and that still held in- finite charm: “I love you,’’ and Kay said, “I love you, too,” and he said, ‘‘When will you marry me , , .’ and then added, ‘‘for good?’ Capt. Nungesser, the famous French aviator— a mar- riage vacation didn’t work for a cent in staving off his Amer- ican bride, the former Consuelo Hatmaker idea so far that immediately after their mar- riage they set up separate homes and ar- ranged to see each other at stated intervals and.intervals so far apart that most newly- weds would have found them quite unendur- able. That was several years ago. The novelist and her husband are still married‘and thev insist their plan of life is a complete success. Another writer who indorses the marriage vacation idea is Thyra Samter Winslow. She thinks it conducive not only to domestic hap- piness but also to successful literary work She and her husband, also a writer, were re- cently happily reunited after a vacation last- ing eleven months. In fashionable circles it is whispered that the former Katherine Elkins and her husband, ‘*Billy” Hitt, feel that they owe much of the felicity of their married life to the fact that they allow each other frequent vacations. But there are the experiences of other hus bands and wives that are not at all so favor- able to the marriage vacation idea. Frequent vacations, often with the breadth of the Atlantic between them, were unable to keep the fermer Brooklyn, and her Italian husband, the Duke of Tor lonia, happy together. divorced, The rock on which the latest love match of Rudolph Valentino went to ruin was the guee- tion of marriage vacations. His wife wanted them in order that she might pursue an ar- tistic carcer of her ‘own, but he wouldn't stand for the idea——not for a minute. Capt. Nungesser, the famous French avia- tor, is another husband who has nothing good to say of the vacation plan as an insurane of lasting marital bliss. He tried it when he and his bride—-the former Consuclo Hate maker, half sister of Alice de Lamar—-firet began to have differences, but it didn't smooth matters out a bit.

It was not a very beautiful or impressive- looking object that I used to spend hours staring at. But, such as it was, I used to have to remind myself that I was a man- child and that only babies are supposed to cry. For always a lump used to rise in my throat. as I looked—and a silly mist crept across my eyes. The thing that stirred me in that queer feeling was a huge stuffed brownish dog- slightly moth eaten, as I remember it——but to me wondrous to look upon. Around the stuff- ed dog’s neck was a big collar studded with iron, and with a hero medal dangling from it. Beneath, on a tablet, was the dog’s name: “BARRY.” My father had told me his story. So had the monks at the bleak old quaint hospice or religious rest house of the great St. Bernard pass, between Italy and Switzerland. Many a time since then have I read the tale. But it will bear retelling; even as will any story of clean courage and self-sacrifice. Here it is: In former days, before tunnels or even good roads made easy the mountainous trip ‘from Italy to Switzerland or back, travelers were used to traveling on foot over the rough passes of the Alps. Many a traveler was lost in the snow or frozen. It was a perilous jour- ney as well as difficult. About 800 years ago, a monk, known 26 “St. Bernard of Menthon,’’ headed a religious movement to build a rest house at the tough- est point of the pass where travelers might stop during their journey and where food and shelter were ever at the disposal of lost or worn-out: wanderers. A band of Augustine monks lived here and devoted much of their lives to the helping of Alpine wanderers. They used to go out on snowy bights or in the cold to seek lost travelers. They did more. Realizing that a dog can see and hear and smell far more acutely in the darkness than can any human, they be- gan to breed a race of shaggy and big and powerful dogs, to help them on _ these searches. lt was thus that our present-day St. Ber- nard dog originated. Th@ St. Bernard you see at dog shows is larger and sleeker and of more refined appearance than the shaggy, yellow dogs trained by the monks but he js ‘the same general breed. These great dogs were taught to hunt through the blackest and coldest night and through the wildest blizzard, ever seeking some unlucky pedestrian who might have strayed from the path or might have been overcome by cold and snow. The dogs were trained not only to find such unfortunates. put to dig them out of drifts and to pilot them to the rest house. Around the dogs’ necks were hung food and flasks of brandy to resuscitate fainting wap- derers and to enable them to continue the Barry's courage never faltered. ‘ trip to the monks’ abode. The dogs them- selves were originally a sort of shaggy grey- They be- came gradually heavier and more. thickly coated, from generation to generation. As a rule, they traveled in pairs, as protection against the Alpine wolves. The hard and incessant labor, and constant exposure to the worst weather, wore out their mighty strength early in life. By the time they were 10 years old, if they lived so long, they were retired from work and were allow- ed to loaf thereafter. Barry was the greatest of had 42 rescues to his credit, in his ten years of life. -At 10 he was retired. Admirers pre- sented him with a life-saving medal, which he wore proudly on his iron-studded collar. He was born about 1800. It was in 1814 that he was tolal he could rest in comfort for the remainder of his days, as an honored member of the monks’ household. Then, one wildly stormy winter night in 1815, the old dog grew suddenly uneasy, :s he lay drowsing before the fire. He leaped up and scratched at the outer door. One of the monks let him out. hound, coming from the Pyrenees. them all. He Instantly the aged dog galloped away at’ top speed through the blizzard. Nor did he pause in his ma@ race until he came upon a dark blot in the snow. Here lay a traveler. overcome by the storm. The man was lying in a stupor, unable to rise. How Barry had known he was there ig a mystery such as always surrounds so many of the actions of highly developed dogs. But, sleeping beside the fire, old Barry had kn¥wn somehow that there was work for his rheu- matic body out there in the storm. And he had gone forth where duty called him. Being only a dog, he did not take advan- tage of the fact that he was on the retired list and that there were younger’ and more active dogs to risk their lives in the blizzard. Barry crouched over the traveler, shaking him by the shoulder, scratching the drifted snow from his face, trying to lift his numbed head toward the brandy cask. Half delirious, the stricken man dimly realized that some- thing large and formidable was attacking him. With one last effort of his freezing sinews, he stabbed the dog through the side. Without a whimper, Barry went an with his work of resuscitation. He had no time to die while his slayer was still so near death. ~He roused the traveler to full consciousness, and half dragged, helf led him back to the path and to the rest house, where the monks continued his labor of life-saving. Barry’s own part of the .ask was done. He had rescued another heipless traveler in his own old age, The score now was 43 saved lives. This forty-third man had given the dog a death wound. Now that the work was ac- complished, Barry could afford the luxury of dying. Pain and loss of blood had at last taken their toll. Barry stretched himself out on the floor .beside the man he had rescued, and very quietly he died. Do you wonder I used to stand by the hour. looking at him, there in the Berne museum?

Law was the next choice, but he had not absorbed enough of it to be worth the mentioning. Matters remained about the same for sev- eral years when a blow fell upon him in his 24th year and when Miss Hoffman was 18, a lovely girl in person and mind, engaging of manner, refined in sensibilities and “ae delicate and playful humor. Without warning and after only a ae hours’ illness she died. When Washington Irving learned of it he nearly lost his mind. BHven from most intimate friends he could bear no allusion to the cause of his bitter grief and for years he never smiled. In his private notebook he made this en- try: “She died in the beauty of her youth, and in my memory she will ever-be young and beautiful.’’ ok * ak ve O the last day of his life Irvipg remained true to this voluntary promise. He asked for her Bible and Prayer Book as sacret’mementos of the love that had been between them and after his death they were found under his pillow where he had always kept them, dear to his last breath. Speaking of his grief afterwards in a pri- vate communication he wrote: ‘‘When I be- came more calm and collected, I applied my- self, by way of occupation to the finishing of my work (The History of New York). I brought it to a close as well as I could, and published it; but the time and circumstances in which it was produced, rendered me al- ways unable to look upon it with satisfac- tion.’’ To another correspondent in later years he recounted the sad story of his lost love and wrote: ‘“‘You wonder why I am not mar- ried. My time has now gone by, and I have growing claims upon my thoughts in this lost love of mine.”’ In his pocketbook in his own hand were written those noble iines of Campbell: *“What’s Hallowed Ground,’ that well ex- pressed his lifelong loyalty to- his first love.

BURGESS To preserve and conserve all desirable American wild life, including birds, animals, flowers, trees and other living. things also the natural beauty spots and scenic wonders of all America. Some Foolish Frogs. {t appears that we humans are not alone in yielding to the temptation to violate the rules laid down by Mother Nature. To be sure, there are no night clubs nor jazz pal- aces for the little »eople of the Green ‘orest and the Green Meadows. Nevertheless, there are those among them who refuse to zo to bed and to sleep at the proper lime. Why, no one knows. This report has just reached me.: “On December 26, while fishing thesegh the ice in a lake in Somerset county, Maine, I caught a pickerel about 22 inches long, and in it found a good-sized specimen of the com- mon green frog. Apparently it had not been swallowed very long. As I supposed that frogs went into the mud before severe weather set in, I could not account for the presence of this one in the fish. How did this pickerel get this frog? Possibly this is not at all a rare occurrence, but in 25 years of ice fish- ing I have never before found a frog in a pickerel’s stomach.”’ The answer is that here was a frog who ap- parently could not give up the white lights, or what may correspond to these, in the watery depths. In other words, this frog probably had established himself close to a spring and would have spent the winter in somewhat sluggish activity. right there, instead of sleep- ing the winter away as a right-minded frog should. I can well understand the surprise of the fisherman when he opened that pickerel, but it is probable that frogs in winter are more commé@n than generally realized. Dr. Francis Harper, of the Boston Museum of Natural History, reports having seen pickere] frogs all winter in a spring near his home in Massachusetts. On New Year’s day there was also a leopard frog there. While slug- gish, they are far from being torpid, as is the condition of a hibernating animal. They hide under stones and bricks in the spring and occasionally come out. The victim of the pickere] probably was living in a warm spring hole in the lake and became a bit careless. One of the joys of winter is the fascinating certainty that sooner or later you will en- counter the unexpected. Years ago, on the seventh day of January; beside a snowbank, I picked a spray of exquisite arbutus. It was nearly ten weeks ahead of its season in that locality. Why did that one plant choose to be so entirely unarbutus like? There were many other plants surrounding it, growing un- der precisely the same conditions, with pre- cisely the same exposure, and not one of them showed the least tendency to force the season. I already have reported mocking birds win- tering in Connecticut and Massachusetts. Now comes the report of one wintering in Water- ville, Maine, and another in Penacock, N. H. In each case it is a lone individual. In each case the bird appears to be in perfect health and thoroughly capable of flight. Why has it chosen to-remain mateless and pecu- liarly alone? The Flivver Chaser. The more one knows of animals the -less is one inclined to lay down any fixed rule governing their actions. The idea that any species will or will not do thus or so under certain. conditions was long since exploded. The unexpected and the unexplainable con- tinually confront the nature student. The following letter was sent me with a request for an explanation: “You say that exact observation is the most difficult thing in the world, but I wish to re- late an exact observation which may interest you and is truthful in every respect. While spending’the summer on Silver lake near Sharon, Conn., some few years ago my sister and I were sitting on the porch of our cottage. We saw a filvver passing at moderate speed, pessibly 18 miles an hour. Directly behind, or under the differential, was a rabbit with ears laid back and apparently racing with the car. I called my husband’s attention and he got up on the stonewall for a better view. All three of us watched the rabbit and the car for a distance of some 300 feet, when they dis- appeared around a bend in the road. How do you account for this funny incident?”’ “I don’t account for it. Why a rabbit should choose to be paced on a dusty road by an ill- smelling motor car is beyond the range of even theory. All I can say is that that was distinctly an original rabbit. Perhaps it was pretending to be a coach dog. The Winter Feeding Station. A small boy wants to make a food tray for the birds and asks how wide it shall be and if he shall have a top for it. This matter of feeding stations for birds appears to trouble many, to judge by the letters I receive. It doesn’t make a whole lot of difference what the details of your feeding station may be. The main thing is to have a feeding station and keep the food where the birds can get it. It is well to bear in mind that birds are natu- rally suspicious of anything which may ap- pear in the nature'of a trap. For this rea- son, if you have a roof over your feeding sta- tion, it is best to have three sides open. Some successful feeding stations are made with glass on two sides and one side open. But, as I said before, the form of the sta- tion matters less than the keeping of a food supply available. The width of the shelf, if you have a feeding shelf, is immaterial. A shelf of any width with a strip around the edge to keep the seeds from being knocked or blown off is all that is needed. Not even this is necessary. Two ordinary outside window sills with a lath tacked along the outer edge of each are well patronized feeding stations at my home, For ground feeding birds tread the snow down hard and scatter your grain and seeds and crumbs on this. it is better than shovel- ing the snow away. Suet fastened to the least exposed side of a tree furnishes a food supply in all weathers, excepting in the case of an ice storm. I am continually asked what can be done to keep away the English sparrows and star- lings. The starlings do not bother me. It thought were chipping sparrows. thought appears that the starling is so useful] that he really is of greater benefit than some of our native birds which we take greater delight in. I rather like him myself. Barring the moek- ing bird and the cat bird, I know of no better mimic than this importation from across the water. ' ' For the English sparrow I can not say 4s much. If he has any place in this country, and I do not concede that he has, it is the heart of the city where there are no other birds. There is only one way in which to gét rid of this pest if it is driving off other birds. This is to remove it. It is surprising how quick- ly these sparrows will] learn that certain places ure taboo. There are many of these sparrows in'the immediate vicinity of my home, but rarely does one venture on my home grounds. Occasionally [ find people who object to a word being said against these birds. I love birds. If there were no other and better birds I might love the English sparrow. But, out of the knowledge of long experience, “I know for a certainty that IJ could not have the native birds which now flock abcut my home did I not keep the little European bully at a distance. ne rere A Naturalist’s Question Boy, apr Guy Newton wants to know if it is true that a skunk lifted from the ground ‘by its tail can not throw its scent. Do not try it, Guy. Ralph Wade has a pet squirrel and asks if there are any kinds of twigs to feed him. The only use a squirrel has for twigs is for nest building. Sometimes in the early spring you will see squirrels biting off twigs, espe- cially on maple trees, but this is for the pur- pose of getting sap. Mrs. C. Stratton writes that she is very fond of goldfish, but has no success with them. She wants to know if the fact that her house is heated by hot air makes a difference. She says she cleans their bowl and feeds them every day. The hot air makes no difference, Mrs. Stgat- ton. The trouble ptobably lies in your deily cleaning of the bowl and feeding of the fish. You kill your pets by kindness. It ig an easy matter to overfeed goldfish and this usually proves fatal in a short time. It is safe to say that more are killed by overfeeding than by underfeeding. It is not necessary to change the water and clean the bowl every day. The less often the fish are so disturbed the better. I would not advise doing this oftener t once a week and perhaps not as often as that. You can tell by the actions of your fish wheth- er they need fresh water. H. Sutra, of Brooklyn, N. Y., writes as follows: “In Evergreen cemetery I have no- ticed flocks of juncos and with them what I A friend. told me that they were not sparrows but an- other variety of juncos. Is that 607. Also please state if goldfinches migrate.”’ Your friend is mistuken. There is but © species of junco in New York.

By JANSCI RIGO, The Celebrated Gypsy Violinist and “Man of Many Loves” (Concluded from last week) ANY times I have lived once again through that night of tragedy. Many times have | looked again, in memory, upon that astounding scene in the opera house in Berlin—my little bride beside me in the box—the glorious Olga on the light- drenched stage. Then a flash—a cry— and the beloved singer Iving there des- perately wounded while hysteria broke loose all about us. It is a miracle how poor little Juanita escaped—but escape she did, to Paris. And as I again recall the tragedy I re- member how Berlin outdid itself in sympathy and kindness for the injured prima donna. As soon as a famous sur- geon had pronounced her not fatally wounded she was taken, not to a hos- pital, but to the home of one of Ger- many’s most distinguished princes. At ‘-his:command all the luxuries of his magnificent establishment were placed at her disposal. During her convalescence I went each day to carry flowers to the beautiful queen of opera, and each day I was more taken with the wonder of her, both as artist and woman. She was a magnificent Juno, subtly brunette, with great swimming pools of eyes and a figure of melting curves. Olga was a woman of extraordinary strength of body and mind. As I sat and wetched her convalesce I often imagined how those long, supple fingers of hers might some time close about the neck of the man who loved her while she choked him into oblivion—a sacri- ' fice to the art which she loved more dearly than all. Then I pictured her upright in a blazing chariot, leading fierce Amazons, while steel flashed and the battle song was lifted high. Olga was, in women, an entirely new expe- rience for me, and I soon found myselt growing fond of her in a way I had never been before. < In. the beginning I had no more idea of: love for Olga than I might have for some superb python quite out of reach behind thick plate glass in the zoo. My feeling was merely the ardent admira- tien which one artist feels for another whose music has melted his heart. | had kissed Olga frequently before my wife did what she did. The kisses I had given her—those kisses that had fired my wife’s murderous jealousy—were only artistic salutes. No woman who really understood an artist’s heart could possi- bly have mistaken them for anything else. But Juanita loved me—and to Juanita there was only one explanation for.a kiss, though I tried industriously to tell her otherwise. Still, loving Olga’s music as I did, I in no fashion loved Olga. But when I came to see her, bringing my flowers, each day of that fortnight, I quickly knew that she was considering me as a possibly interesting husband. And the idea was not at all displeasing to me. In fact, the power and charm of Olga were co irresistible that men seldom opposed her in anything. So it happened that two years after tne affair at the opera I was divorced from Juanita and married my Kussian beauty. For a time with Olga there passed trom me the haunting sense, half pain, half sweetness, which had seldom left me since I departed that dim morning imItaly from my wife, Princess Chimay. For a time Olga filled my life with her oyerflowingness. We traveled, for it was summer. I watched her against the magnificent background of the Swiss Alps and thought of her as being as en- uring and insuperable as Mont Blanc. rom Switzerland to the Riviera and thence by sea to Norway, and then to Touma @ beef iy ."

The season was approaching for my concerts and her opera. At last one evening in Scotland as we were re- turning to our inn from a visit to the home of Sir Walter Scott I gently sug- gested that we both were artists and the time was near to think of art. ‘‘Pouff—”’ she flung back at me. “I like you, little one, and want to roam the world—all—all the world. I get breaths for my art. I feel—I see—lI in- quire, and the next year or the year after I shall return to opera a greater singer than ever. Now I must travel more—to give my _ spirit back its suppleness.” But I was weary of the open road,, gypsy though I was. And at last I reached the time when I was able to escape a little from her overwhelming- ness. I could draw aside from her and look upon my lady of the great moods in proper perspective. And I suppose I must explain that something else was in my heart just then. I had already been married four.times, but never had a child been born to me that lived.. Poor little Marishka, gvpsy wife of my youth, had presented me with a son, who died almost at birth. The princess had never been mother to a child of mine; little Juanita was scarcely my bride when we separated. I thought of all this as my new bride guided me all over Europe. I longed for a settled home and a fire- side and a wife who should be mother to my children. Probably some who read this may smile, that the wandering gypsy violin- ist, the hero of so manv romantic esca- pades, should confess to a vearning for the settled domesticities. But most men, I feel, no matter how they may have lived, come sconer or later to such long- ings as these. I thought what wonder- ful sons and daughters a wife like Olga could give the world—what veritable children of beauty and music they would be—how they wousd gladden our old age with their melodies. But as /] thought these things for a long time I dared not speak to her for fear her scorn should shatter my dreams. At length I found words. At length I whis- pered to her my wishes one night when the shadows lay long about the edges of Lake Lomond. And when I had fin- ished talking so earnestly she reached over one of her soft and able hands and patted my knee. “Bless the boy,” she said to me, and laughed softly. That was all, and I didn’t care to goon. Those three words said to me that she just smiled at my ingenuousness, and would not even argue the matter. Magnificent Olga, three inches taller than her husband, felt for me—for Rigo—as I had felt for little Juanita. To her I was something childish, to be laughed at—just a hu- man plaything. Never had wife of mine felt for me like that before. This was only the petty prelude to things big and dramatic. Just a little while ago, Rudolph Valentino issued his ultimatum to his wife, via the news- papers. She must choose between be- ing a wife, or following a “career.” Well, times have changed, but human nature is still as in the beginning and the heart of the true artist considers neither home nor children, when the great madness, art, is calling. In my innocence, then, I never realized that art may call woman even as she calls man, but I learned—TI learned, I’ve already told of the defiant hours of my triumph after I had left Princess Chimay, when my music melted out to waiting thousands, spangled with a feeling which only pain had put there. And of how, when I knew what suffer- ing had done for my art, I was glad | had suffered; glad I had cast aside this gorgeous wife of my heart, so that mu- sic could benefit from the sacrifice. And —in those moments—I completely for- OR: got how much I| had loved the Princess. I know such terrible triumphs tempt women, too. I often saw Olga when she felt art’s glow and urge—when she looked over my head at? invisible stars and never saw me. In some of her fierce, savage moments of the great artist, this Russian beauty would cheer- fully have murdered me, could her mu- sic have benefited from my sacrifice. And, vet, knowing all this, I persisted in the hope that some day I could make this Juno put art in a secondary ‘place in her life and give me the things | craved more every day. Months passed. Olga’s wanderlust had passed. We were in Paris at the same hotel where I had always stayed when Princess Chimay was my wife. My Russian Olga was deep in rehear- sals and for the first time, almost two years after our marriage, I discovered the woman she was when she threw herself heart and soul into her work. The evening before she completed ar- rangements with her manager, we had taken our dinner en famille, in the soft green drawing room of our suite. The little blonde daughter of a Russian tra- gedian had strayed to our rooms that afternoon and had instinctively found her way into Olga’s lap, where she was sumptuously cuddled. The sight of that child cuddled in my wife’s lap stirred in me ‘the old longings. The wish that she was a daughter of mine— of Olga’s and mine—surged over me so strongly that at dinner I started to tell my wife again how hungry my heart was. But before I had fairly be- gun the words I hoped would melt her with their tenderness, she cut me short with impatience, almost gruffness. “Babies—for Olga—babies® for me would ruin the best Borgia in Europe. Do not speak nonsense, Rigo.” She stood up, disdainfully, looking down at me from ‘her magnificent height. My heart sank but I bravely went on trying to put into my words the longings that welled up in my soul —-trying desperately to make her, too, feel their appeal. “Later,” I said, ‘‘when you are an old woman, my Olga, you will think of the children that never were. And in that lonely day of what consolation will yo opera triumphs be?” “Well,” she smiled down at me, “well, the boy is sentimental. Imagine all this, from the ‘mauvias sujet.’ Oh, there—” -and she came to me, patting my shoul- der cajolingly, “there, my dear. By and THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, JANUARY 17, 1996.

I got up also and went into my bedroom. I put on my hat and evening cape and went out, without bidding my wife good-by. I was filled with impatience, indignation, at the insolence with which she had treated my wishes. So, for several hours, | walked through the streets where splendid car- riages passed, letting out richly gowned women, men in their evening black and white. At last I strode back to the hotgl, feeling about as I had felt on those tempestuous nights when I had beaten my first wife, Marishka, for less by far than the rebellion of my Olga. | let myself into our apartment and started for my wife’s door. We would talk the trouble out—and she would see somethings as her husband saw them. I touched the knob and found the door locked. I knocked, petulant, impatient. After I had stood there a moment or two, knocking preemptor- illy, she opened the door and stood on the thrsehold, a long dark braid falling over each shoulder, her eyes heavy with sleep. “Go away; she said. “You wakened me, when I need all my sleep for my music. I’m rehearsing now. I have no ties, no loves—nothing but—oh—go away and stop raising your eyebrows to me. Next summer, we’ll travel again, but in the meantime—can’t you move to another hotel ?” I was outraged, indignant, but I re- fused to leave the hotel. The clerk as- signed me a chamber just across the entrance to our apartment and then the siege of six weeks began, the six weeks before ethe end.

When my wite consented to dine with me, her glance was distant, her food ascetically chosen in order not to disturb that superb mood she was slowly fostering’ in her heart in order to make her role a tri- umph. I sat for two hours one afternoon watching my wife raise an imaginary poisoned cup, present it, draw it away, then discover her operatic ‘“‘son” and run anguished for an antidote. She went through the tragedy of the dying scene again and again—and artiste that she was, she never knew that I was there, sitting amazed and angry, deep down in a great armchair. Such an artiste as Olga completely divorces her love from her life, as'I saw as the days went by. But that evening when | opened the door It was dusk, in the drawing room, soft, sleek, velvet dusk. As I stepped across the threshold, somebody seized me from behind. Strong hands grasped my throat in a throttling, suffocating grip. My brain reeled, I felt my eyes bulging from my head. The more I struggled to free myself the more vise- like became that hold on my throat. At last, just as my breath was choked off so completely that I thought the end had come, I heard my wife’s voice call her maid’s name. I was pushed violently into a chair, the lights flashed on and I saw—it was Olga’s hands that encircled my neck with a grip that, al- though now relaxing a little, still hurt and left me weak and breathless. “What is the meaning of this out- rage?” I gasped with what little voice was left me. “Don’t—no—quiet yet!” she begged, peering into my face with strange studi- ous eagerness. Later I had her explanation. All day long her head had ached to know the expression of a man, close to his fate. The look of a man who knows his last hour’ is come. The look—dark, hope- less, terror-stricken. And so she had waited for me, in the twilight, seizing me by the throat as I entered the room and stifling with her powerful hands the cries I would have uttered. Only when she had brought me as near death as she dared did she loosen her straining fingers and signal to her maid for the lights. Then she studied my counte- nance for the inspiration she wanted. Wasn't she to play Borgia, three nights hence? And if she knew exactly how a man looked when being choked to seventh and present wife. death, would it not help make her im- personation of the role more trium- phant? After days and nights of her prepa- ration, I was filled with rage and jeal- ousy. She prated of her art—well, was not I Rigo and praised for my music while she was still a little unknown in Moscow? Her vain, boastful words were poison to my spirit. The night before she was to sing, there were delivered to our hotel the gowns she was to wear as Lucrezia. Pale green brocade stiff with golden threads; cream fichus; a sumptuous cos- tume of black with a heavy veil, for her visit to the conspirators in the death scene—marvelous stage clothes to grace what she intended to be a marvelous performance. They came when my wife was out, and I sat in the drawing room with the door opened into her bedroom and watched her maid hang them care- fully in the great wardrobe where Olga kept her choicest stage costumes. At last the maid was finished and went down to her early dinner. I sat alone in the purple twilight, seething with my jealousies, thinking of the next evening. She would bow and smile for her cur- tain calls; she would belong to Paris, to the opera, to her art—while I, her hus- band, might skulk at home or smirk in a box, forgotten, a mere toy, I—Rigo. And as I thought, the madness seized me. She would not—she should not grace that evening, forgetting her sa- cred duties to life and me. I would be the artist in our family, I whom the proud of Europe had courted for my music. I would teach this woman a les- son. I would tame her. I would snatch this cup of honor from her lips, that she might drink of the cup of love. I would show what a woman’s destiny should be. I’ plunged across the room, into her chamber. I fumbled in the maid’s workbox and found a pair of shears. | lit the gas. And under its quivering blaze, | opened the wardrobe door and plunged those devastating shears up and down, over and across the billows of every gown that hung there waiting for the triumph of tomorrow’s debut. At first I worked quietly, but as the costly fabrics slivered into ribbons, | cried out little spurts of glee, and at last —I sang. Sang a bold song of mountain rovers, in our Hungarian tongue; sang a song of male power and of my will, stronger than the will of this Juno who was my wife. When I was quite finished, I turned round—lI looked—TI raised my hands to my eyes—I tried to take two steps to- ward her—and stopped—looking—look- ing. Ogla stood there like a goddess of doom.

ee | | Multmillionaire Motion- Picture Magnate an # j Theater Owner, Tells His Life Story, Which q Rivals the Old-Time Thrillers of Horatio Alger As Told to Terry Turner by Marcus oe Loew. ’ “ae @ have Marcus Loew. multimillionaire S motion picture magnate and theater » Owner, tell you his life story is akin to “the first thrill of youth in reading one of Horatio Alger’s tales of a poor bovy’s strug- gle fer success. Where the author would have begun with “Tony, the Bootblack,’’. we could well begin our narrative with ‘“‘Marcus, the Newsboy.’’ And as there are about as many newsboys as bootblacks in the world, we caW'well start at scratch, At that I feel that Ivhave the edge as my narrative is based on fact while Alger’s heroes are pure fiction. When “Yarcus Loew was first asked if he would® reveal his life’s story and struggles for success, stripped of all press-agentry em- bellishments, he replied that he would really like to read the truth about himself as he was rather tiréd of being shocked daily through reading reports that he had pur- chased this or that property or that he was reconstructing picture policies. abroad, when as a matter of fact that reading was the first knowledge he had had of the deal. We were invited to spend the day with him at his estate, ‘‘Pembroke,.”’ Glen Cove, Long Island, the invitation including that we would be permitted to ask him anything ex- cept the number of theaters he controlled. for he-did not know that himself. It was arranged to meet him at his office and, un- prepared, we entered to receive our first shock, similar to that one receives when a nervous motorman gives his trolley a jerky and bumpy stop following a smooth roll for 4H’ mifle or so. Everyone forms mental pic- tures of those they read about. As millions of, others I had read of Marcus Loew ac- quiring this and that theater, vast motion picture properties and studios throughout thé country, and I had formed the im- % pression that he would be rather large of ° stature, with a businesslike brusqueness, though quite amiable. Quite to the contrary I discovered him to bé rather small, no taller than 5 feet 5 inches. The brusquevess I expected gave Way to a characteristic which had he been younger one could have termed basbfuiness. His attitude seemed to say, “Now what are you going to ask me”’ as he made ready to leave for “Pembroke.” ori x 2° : XECUTIVES of every -size and de- —4 scription, whom I[ found to vary in im-| fortance through the nature of their re- * quests, breezed in and out quite freely, with- put the customary introduction via a secre- jary. so important in other large offices I had visited. A rather important executive [| should judge by his manner and business at hand brought the word that a group of men, who had recently built a theater were quite anxious to have Mr. Loew look it over with a possibility of having him add it to its cir- euit. Before the executive had had time to explain, Marcus Loew gave his answer, which hy the way was negative, explaining that he had been over the ground long before and did not think it would be a valuable addi- ‘T$on at that time. The executive had barely ¢lesed the door when another. and I presume of lesser importance, entered, and poured fourth his minor though just as important réquest. The request was of a nature far different from the first. but I noticed he re- @ived the same attention as the first and quite as thorough a reply. His guests in the half hour I waited for him ranged from producers, general managers, theater. owners and‘auditors, but they all received the same courteous reception. ~; In several cases I noticed that those who came before him were not backward about that arguing their point and in several cases Won it. During a lull I asked him about that. *’**Those chaps surely ¢an argue,’’ I said, ‘‘do.you like a man to argue the point with you?” “Vou bet I do. I do not like ‘Yes Men.’ Noé° one ever gets any place always being right. If they argue with me they will argue for me and in the end I find that I generally get the best break possible.”’ “Rather confusing we thought, this busi- ess of everyone dashing in and out witna MNiyriads of subjects to talk over. We didn’t feel. we could concentrate on any one sub- Ject should we be put under the same pres- sure. Marcus Loew feels quite differently ‘even about that. ‘Keeps your mind active, and theirs, too.” was the unusual reply. ‘“‘Now if I were to do as you say you find in other offices, don't vou think I might lose too much time on one sub- ject dnd become stagnated in thought mysell. ‘Phen again let’s say there are ten executives that want to see me around the same time. If I gave number one all my time what would Widppensto the other nine waiting in the re- ®weption room?’’ What would be the reaction dg them?. They come rushing in here with a mew idea. It is fresh in their minds. They are enthusiastic. Not always right, mind you, 4hut' at a point where they feel they can go through and put if over. Let them sit out Shere in the cold reception room an hour or two, swapping jokes and stories, and the sub- -ject at hand would suffer.

To reach the elevator ‘we walked ‘past a number of employes. You'd rather expect a little more bowing than usual with the passing of the ‘‘Boss,”’ but not so in this case. ** To right and left you might have heard the wisual greeting, ‘‘Hello, Mr. Loew,” that is, if -éhey were not too busy discussing some sub- -ject to miss him altogether. There was not ainy special stress on that “Mister’’ or Loew. aWe thought it rather nice, the idea of a boss -peing accepted as one of them rather than the ewnet. a, *“De you know many of those working for ayou, Mr. Loew?’ We asked this to ascertain dpr ourselves whether or not’those in the ‘hallwey knew really who was passing.

Always frank, he came to me and said: ‘Mr. Loew, I’m up to my neck in mortgages for the home, and prettily settled where I am, but if you say the word I'll pull up stakes to- morrow and go to France for you, although I can’t speak a word of French.’ Now you must remember that this boy would have willirgly lost on his home and gone away from every friend. That’s loyalty, and that’s the kind of loyalty that spells success.”’ We taxied to the pier of the New York Yacht club, Twenty-sixth street at the East river, where Marcus Loew’s yacht ‘‘Caroline”’ awaited us. We scurried down the same street on the upper East Side, where not many years before this same man felt it would be like a vacation to walk on Sunday. Marcus Loew’s business worries, if he “had any, left when he entered the taxi, for now he was talking of his home in Glen Cove, ‘‘Pembroke.’’ recently purchased by Mr. Loew, built by the late Capt. De LaMar and estimated to be worth approximately $9.000,000. 2B covers 48 acres and is located on the Long [sland sound. From the conversa- tion en route to the pier we knew we were going to have a lot of difficulty getting the story of Marcus Loew’s life. ‘Now, you’re going to see wa home. You can have a great swim this afternoon. boy, in fact, anythivg you want down here.’’ This line of conversation only ended for a time when we finally stepped on the yacht ‘‘Caroline.”’ When we were comfortably seated we asked how he came to christen the boat ‘‘Caroline.” “Why. after my wife, of course.’ he re- plied, rather surprised that we did not know just who any husband’s boat should be named after. ‘“‘Funny thing about that, too,” he con- tinued. ‘‘The first day Mrs. Loew and myself had the boat we ran through a squall, and she swore she’d never ride on it again. The next morning when I went down to our pier they reported to me that Mrs. Loew and a party of friends had been out in it an hour or two and didn’t leave word when she would return,.”’ At lunch. in the boat’s snug saloon, where ten to twelve can be seated quite comfortably. we thought we had better get to our subject at hand, to ascertain the true feelings of a Horatio Alger fictional character once he had attained the success he had worked so hard for. But Mr. Loew questioned us. “Well, how do you like it?” “Just what we came to ask you, Mr. Loew. This must be all so different to anything vou had expected in your youth, we thought it might make very interesting.reading just what you thought about it-all, and if it was what gsou had dreamed of and expected?” “Dreamed of and expected,’ he laughed. “Why say, young fellow, I never dreamed that there was this much money in the world, and to say I expected it would be rank ‘lying. There have been times that I thought all this sort of thing was purely fictienal, or that it Was not meant for my lot.” The ‘‘Caroline”’’ slipped away from her moorings and we were chugging along mer- rily, dipping gracefully out and into sunbeam and long shadows as suddenly” given and withdrawn by the skyscrapers towering over the river front. Ward’s and North Brothers’ islands spread to our right, the city’s haven for the poor, needy and defective. Human wreckage, misspent youth through force of circumstance, humanity wallowing in the un- certain sea of ‘“‘the other side of life’ lolled about and gazed, though not enviously, at the spick and span ‘Caroline’ as she almost mockingly nosed by. Such a sight would cause a Jull in any con- versation, and ours was not different from any other. Someone had to say something, and I mentioned that those poor souls ma- rooned on those islands had but little chance of life. : “Chance—that’s it,’’ responded Mr. Loew. “(hance plays such a great part in our life. There you have one side of the element of chance. Here you have the other.”’ “You don’t mean to say after your hard battle you believe in chance and fate?’’ we inquired. “?t most certainly do. You probably know men, fine mey, who have worked their fingers off nearly all their lives. They have striven manfully, and with cleaa, honest purpose. yet chance did not favor them. I do believe, however, that many are miscast in life and, not Knowing or believing this, allow them- selves to be swept away until it is too late. “Come to think of it, had I not set about to recast early in youth, we might not be riding on this boat now. You want my story straight, so you’ll have it just that way. om os * ~ ‘iF a kid my greateset ambition in life was to be a waiter—that is, of the head- waiter variety. In those days you must re- call that Volstead had not been heard of—at least not nationally, as he is today-——and my greatest thrill was the blaze and glory of the large cafes. Of course I did not drink. I was really voung, but the very brilliance of those scenes spelled success to me. I felt if I could secure a position as head waiter in one of those cafes I would be ‘made.’ I started as a bus boy, but fortunately for me I was short. a few unsteady customers did not notice me as [ passed them with a load of dishes and ] landed bodily in the street. You might say that I was only a kid and that all kids have queer ambitions, to be conductors, po- licemen, but nevertheless that was an ambi- tion, and youthful ambitions well nursed and groomed often remain with an individual through liife. “T recall another instance in my life, had [ been successful, would have changed my entire career. 1 wanted to be a politician. The lower East Side is always seething in politics, and I became imbued with the spirit of the thing during the late President Cleve- land’s run for the Presidency. I had known several of the district leaders, and they in their anmfety to get out the full vote promised me faithfully that should Cleveland win I would be appointed a page boy at Albany. 1 worked like a Trojan. I can recall how vividly I dreamed over my future political career in my room at night. Politicians were mighty to me. Every one greeted them with the utmost courtesy, and I wanted to be one of them. To make that story—-or career-— rather short, Cleveland didn’t win——and need- less to say. I didn’t go to Albany. I found it rather difficult to find my political friends after thui. and I also found that new leaders were receiving the courtesies once given to my former leaders.”’ We were pulling into the dock at Pem-~ broke. What a beautiful sight, and I could almost feel the thrill of the man beside me. There, stretched before us, the beautiful gar- dens, hugged by shrubbery, then the broad expanse of ground before the house. “What a beautiful view you must {rom your front porch,’’ we ventured. “That's the back of our house,”’ he laugh- ingly replied, and we felt that we would certainly entertain all our friends in the back yard should we ever have such a home. have _-— THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, JANUARY 17, MARCUS LOEW Then came our parade through the estate of Marcus Loew. Through Italian and Jap- anese gardens to the hennery, where the superintendent called . forth 2 000 Various species of fowl! with a whistle similar to the manner one would summon a hound. Then to the hothouses that seemed to be miles in length while we personally inspected varie- ties of plants. The orchards drooped under their heavy burden of ripe fruit. We were stopped again and again by experienced nur- serynen employed to look after the shrub- bery who wanted to explain where this or that species came from,to all of which we‘' Yessed”’ merrily, not knowing what it was all about. except that it was all entirely too much to cram into one humble brain at one time with- out rushing the main topic of my intended story out. He gazed at that orchard again. “And how many live here, Mr. Loew?’’ He seemed to sense the reason for our question. “Mrs. Loew and myself and our two boys and their families at times——-but that fruit we give away.”’ We breathed easily once again as our sense of profit and loss became normal once more. some NCE in the home. we were about to be overwhelmed again with the bigness of the whole thing, but, fearing we’d forget our topic again, we urged Mr. Loew to the billiard room for our little cross-examiyation. He willingly assented, and the first question one puts to any successful man we tried on him, “To what do you attribute you success in life?’’ ‘To the respect I had for my parents, to *the love I had and have for my wife and the love I had and have for my ¢hildren.’’ Sim- ple, clear cut, straight to the point, almost as. if he had studied the answer. We asked for an explanation. “Well, the respect I had for my parents kept me from doing things in my youth thatso many do. First of all, I did not drink be- cause I didn’t want my folks to worry about me from that viewpoint. However, I want to explain here that while I do not drink, I do not think it is right to take it away from others who like to and do it normally. I did not stay out late as a rule, as it would worry them, and I always tried not to do that. That kept me straight until I met the girl who is now my wife. “Through thick and thin she stuck by me. As a matter of fact, I was in debt when she married me and she helped me at every turn. Whether she believed in my various under- takings or not, she stuck if I wanted to go through with it. I was too much in love and imbued with the idea of success to do other than to strive on. And let me tell you I can recall times when the going was tough; when it looked as though I would never pull through, even to almost convincing me that I was a failure, But Mrs. Loew never welched and we managed to come through. ‘Then David and Arthur, my twin sons, came, and tha, made things all the brighter. I had to go on. I love children-——all children —and I loved my own. Without those three attributes I would never have succeeded.” tight here it struck us that we should set- tle a question troubling many hearts and homes right pow, whether or not folks should marry young, with an answer from a men who had been through just that and suc- ceeded. He answered quite convincingly. ‘ “Certainly people should marry young. The high cost of living was just as great In pro- portion in my youth as it is today. If a young man in debt were to come to me and Ne ask me whether or not he should marry | would say ‘Go to it.’ Not for the purpose of only getting the girl of your choice but for other reasons. Young men in debt with seem- ingly little hope of ever getting out of it are apt to throw up the sponge and take the eas iest way. Worry does not rest easily on young shoulders unless the burden is ¢6 heavy that a supreme effort is necessary to throw it off. . I. certainly believe that if a young couple really love each other they can he of great help to each other.

In his office vou would imagine he would not waste time answering such questions, but here he was quite eager ia give his views, emphasizing each point by pounding his hand on the tabaret near him. We were meeting the real Marcus Loew, the Marcus Loew who knew real life. had tasted the bitter and the sweet and knew whereof? he spoke. He didn’t dillydally with his re- plies. He didn’t even deign to start his an- swer with ‘“‘Well, now I don’t know.’’ He did know, was thoroughly convjnced and con- vinced every one as he inidhed and waited for more. . We had another. “You were born on the lower East side. Some folks think: that is a handicap. Do you?” “I certainly do not. My parents were poor, but as that is nothing new on the lower Hast Side [ had the same echance as the rest. To me as I sit here talking to you I can see that ny birthplace was an opportunity for me. If made me work to get out. Every thought 1o the honest person in. straitened ciréum- stances are to better themselves. The fur- ther I would drift from the lower East Side surroundings the more firmly would I return convinced that I must get ahead. Perhaps had I been born with a silver spoon in my mouth the necessity of getting ahead would not have been so apparent to me. “Being native born was not an advantage except that I had an early schooling in the English language. The greatest fault that I could find with the foreign born coming to our shores is that they do npt see the neces- sity of devoting all their time to learning our language. That is the important thing for them to know. They crowd, jam and horde themselves in the lower East Side. Thev meet others who speak their native tongue and it does not dawn on them that there is another world outside than that. Once they learn that to become a part of our country and receive the benefits to be derived they must first learn the language, then veu see him coming up in the world. For my part, however, being born on the lower Kast Side has been a.distinct advantage.’’ We heard that both David and Arthur Loew were college men .and we wondered whether Marcus Loew felt that a college edu- cation would have carried him onto greater heights in his chosen field. We were getting on famously, he answering any and all ques- tions we put to him, so we fared forth. “Do you think a college education would have benefited you?”’ ‘‘No, quite to the contrary. Had | waited for a college education I would have missed many opportunities that carried me to where Jam now. I am for a college education for some men and ae practical education for others. I am what I consider one of the ‘others.’ I do not think that all men respond io a college education. There are the prac- tical variety who realize their values and vo- cations in life seemingly through intuition. Books would be irksome to them. They would have been to me in my youth. °Then there are men who progress mightily through books and study. They are needed in the world quite as much as the other variety. They give tone, culture and a veneer that the other set do not give. Both forces are needed. However, at this day I would have liked to have had a college education, al- though, had I to start over again, I would do just as I did before.” as ad ae oe E E came back at this point to ant element of chance and opportunity. ere is that old wheeze, “Opportunity comes but once,” &s., and we pulled it on Mr. Loew. Marcus Loew Started His. Climb for Millions as a Newsboy and His Indomitable Will Has Sur- vived Setback After Setback in Upward Climb ‘‘Most men make their opportunities in life. You give a man a chance, if he feels about it that way——he takes hold of the opportunity and makes good. Where no one offers you that chance or opportunity you have to make it yourself. In my own firm I know the ma- jority who have made their own opportuni- ties. I remember as a kid I felt that if I could make myself valuable by doing two or three men’s work for my boss I was making an opportunity for mvself, and I generally discovered that I did just that. Every man must have an idea to get by in life. If that idea is a sound and practical one and he can sell it first to himself, then he can sell it to some one else and he has made an oppor- tunity for himself. Lord help the chap who waits for some one to offer him this or that to make good. He might wait the rest ofehis life. “While we’re on the subject of opportuni- ties let me say that saving is a good subject for one looking for that opportunity. J think every young fellow should save at least 40 per cent of his earnings no matter how smal] they may be. Learning to save young is a g00d habit for when that old opportunity pre- sents itself in one’s mind it’s great to have a bank account tq carry it through. “When I mention saving I do not mean be- ing stingy. A stingy man could never think of an opportunity or if one came his way would not have a broad enough outlook to grasp it.’”’ Mrs. Loew interrupted our session at this point and not having heard our conversation or not knowing the reason for my presence gave actual proof of one of Mr. Loew’s named reasons for his success. Mr, Loew was flush- ed and his long conversation had brought a huskiness to his speech which was not missed by-her. Acknowledging the introduction she quickly turned her attention to her husband. **Marcus, you’re husky. You shouldn't get so excited. Did you have a hard day at the office?’’ and ten other little wifely questions expressing fear that he would overdo the business of working for a living. When Mr. Loew left us for a minute I took up my dis- trict attorney methods on her, but with more diplomacy. “Tt guess he works rather hard—seems a shame, too, with this wonderful home to en- joy.”’ We didn’t have to wait—our remark fitted beautifully and drew her. “Tl wish he wouldn't work so hard. You'd think we haven’t a thing on earth and he never seems to appreciate the fact that he is older and can not stand the strain.’’ Purely wifely and gave us another idea for a ques- tion when Mr. Loew returned and Mrs. Loew withdrew to order dinner. “Why do you work so hard now. Mr. Loew, that you have reached the goal and have all the money you can possibly spend?”’ “But I hayen’t reached the goal,’’ he in- terrupted, “‘no man ever reaches that. L have Many things on my mind to do yet. Then again I couldn’t stop. You forget that my friends, many of them have invested their life savings in my enterprises. They must be protected. They invested when I was a little fellow in the business. They stuck when the cry ‘Wolf’ went up. They never squawked and neither will I. To tell the truth the habit of working has sucha hold on me I don’t be- lieve I could stop even if I wanted to. ¢ * 5 * x > CNHE money—wel] that doesn’t mean any- thing to me now. It gives me a great deal of pleasure in entertaining my friends, friends by the way whom we had when we began our struggle and are still loyal to us You know money—that is, too much of it brings headaches. You have to keep it work- ing as you do yourself.” Here before me sat a man, apparently about 05 years of age, healthy and strong, rich and who refused to quit. We wondered if he ever thought of quitting at any time in his life, so we asked him that. ““Yes, I did Once in my life and strange to say that had I quit then one of my dearest friends would have been in the shoes [I wear now. It avas after I went into the penny ar- cade business. I suppose you know the story about that. Well, I was in the fur business, a salesman. JI did rather well and went into business for myself and failed. I owed quite a bit of money but managed through tremen- dous sacrifices to myself and family to clear myself. ‘David Warfield, then a famous actor, wanted to start me in the penny arcade busi- ness. I mentioned it at home, and even Arthur, then 8 years of age, wanted to know, ‘why Papa wanted to go into a business that sold for a cent when furs sold for so much more.’ I tell you that to illustrate what the reactions were to the proposition. Everyone thought J] was a fool, but somehow Dave urged me on, backed me with a lot of money and with other friends’ money I went for it. Soon afterward my partners were Morris Co- hen and Adolph Zukor. All of a sudden busi- ness went to smash. I was frightened at the enormous losses I would cause my friends. That, in fact, Was one time in my life that I was losing my nerve. I had had so many reverses that I félt it would be foolish to go on. I called Morris Cohen and offered to sell, the money répresenting my 49 per cent in the business with which [I hoped to give to my friend, and Cohen wouldn't buy. When I think of that moment now I have intermittént chills and thrills, but I only had the chills then. I have my thrills now as I think of the good fortune he brought me by turning me down. Yes, that is one time I wanted to say ‘quits,’ but couldn’t.” Mrs. Loew came in at this point bringing her two sons, David and Arthur, both mar- ried, and by the way. daddies. I was after- ward to learn that Arthur handles the —— distribution of his father’s film output, while David books the pictures for his father’s mam- moth circuit of theaters and generally super- vises the real estate department of Loew’s, Ine. And here in this great mansion with 20 master bedrooms, conservatories, indoor swimming pool, shooting galleries, gymna- siums and a miniature theater seating 600, I was to learn at a real family dinner that Marcus Loew had not changed one iota, that Mrs. Loew was interested for the most, first in her immediate family and her friends of the old days, and that the wealth and power acquired by their father had not inflated the heads of the two sons. Theme was a conspicuous absence of that tawdriness and blatancy that one would ex- pect in the home of the so-called newly rich. There was a dignity permeating a loving homelike atmosphere that was in itself rest- ful. Everyone at that table seems most in- terested in the other’s welfare. Business had been left at the office. They were all at home and I felt that they would have been just as happy and contented in a flat in the Bronx. Arthur was preparing for a trip abroad, and Mrs. Loew: was noticeably worried over the trip. Mr. Loew was planning an inspection tour of his Hollywood studios, and Mrs. Loew was of the opinion that it be put off for a time, until he had much needed rest at home. David was worrying whether he would get _but he, with his friend, took the through with his office duties on Saturday in time enough to test-out his speedboat. Mrs. Loew thought that the ‘Caroline’ would be much safer and inquired of us whether we had heard of those “‘speed things’ blowing up. If the change. though gradual from the lower East Side to a mansion on Long Island had disturbed either Mr. or Mrs. Loew I cer- tainly ‘failed to notice it. The very walls groaned under the weight of costly draperies, and the atmosphere of the place fairly ex- haled an odor of richness, but the strictly family dinner progressed evenly and totaily unaware of its background. The thought oc- curred to me that Mr. and Mrs. Marcus Loew were really ‘‘at home.’’ * 1K »* x ND now that we had drawn from him the 4 practical philosophy of a modern busi- ness man we set about getting facts bearing directly on his theatrical career and must present them in a sort of chronological fash- ion. Marcus Loew, like Cardinal Richelieu, believes that “in the bright lexicon of youth —there is no such word as fail.’’ If at first you don’t succeed, try, try, again. This familiar phrase strikes at the para- mount issue in his life, an issue that carried him over a sea of defeats in youth to the goal * of fame, fortune and influence which he now enjoys. ¥ Fickle fame did not beckon until every measure of defeat had been meted out to the little man who now controls the largest chain of theaters in the world, as well as the most gigantic picture producing company. The story of his life should prove most interesting to those who, after tasting their first defeat, are content to cling to the fringes of semi- success forever after. Mr. Loew saw the attractions of the theater very early and at the tender age of 7 he might have been seen almost any Saturday night in the gallery of the old National the- ater in New York: investing a hard earned dime, and applauding along with the rest. | A year later he set up in business for him- self and sold newspapers, working from sun- rise until schoo] time and then after school working with his papers until midnight. So it went for three summers. When Mr. Loew was 9 he left school and, except for some lessons with a private tutor, who en- riched himself to the extent of $2 a month from each pupil, that was all the schooling Marcus Loew ever ‘had, or needed. His first regular employment was with a map printing concern. The pay was 30 cents a day. He was there for a véar when the spirit of industrial unrest broke loose in the place and the boys struck for 40 cents a day. They were promptly locked out by the proprietor, and Loew, then 10 years old, was out of a job. He then entered into his partnership in the printing business with a lad some years older than he. From a little hand press, printing visiting cards, the new firm had soon acquired a. foot press, and finally started a weekly paper of eight pages called the East Side Advertiser. Loew, a weakly boy and small] for his age, “was hardly fit for the slightest physical labor. Instead of running the press he was editor, copy reader, proofreader, manager, subscrip- tion agent, advertising solicitor and writer of advertisements. In his spare hours he used to write the paper. His partner set up the type and ran the press and supplied the neces- sary foot power. The Advertiser had a surprising success, with a circulation that grew steadily to 500 copies per issue. Loew bustled around among the ice cream stores and novelty shops of the East Side and cornered enough advertising to make the sheet pay well—-sometimes in cash, more often in trade. Mr. Loew later disposed of his interest in the Advertiser and worked in a dry goods store for $4 a week. » He Pa ” HEN he was 12 he went to work in a fac tory handling furs and making dress trimmings. There was no power in the plant and his particular task was to turn the crank of a machine for eleven hours a day. In this employment Marcus earned $4.50 a week. and to this day he insists that he really earned Loew’s parents were still living, and penny he brought home was needed Gradually he worked his way through the plant and, because of his inquiring mind, had soon learned every trick of the trade. At one time he was weaver of dress goods; then ai 16 he was made chief of the factory’s fur department. Presently he took the few hundred do]- lars he had saved and started in the fur business for himself. He was then 18. At 19% he failed. tlis debts were $8,000. and his stock brought $1,800 after the bankruptcy proceedings. Marcus Loew was broke, but not beaten. Opportunity did not come to Loew in any strange or blustering way, but in the course of his daily work, once because he had paid his debts of plain, old-fashioned honesty, once because he had indulged in a piece of plain, old-fashioned softness of heart. It happened this way. One of the largest of his creditors at the time of his failure was a fur dealer. The man knew that young Loew's business had been more or less ex- travagant, and when he drew down three- quarters of his account he counted himself lucky to come out so well. A few months later, when the fur dealer was desperately pressed in his turn, Loew called on him and told him that he had come to pay the balance of his debt. Young Loew had a place as a fur salesman, was making $100 a week and was paying up the last dol- lar of the obligations from Which he had been legally released. The creditor thought it was like tinding money. The two became fast friends and the man never forgot the autcome of the affair. By the time he was 23 Loew had paid his debts and scraped together a few hundred dollars tor another start. So he married. took his own capital and that of his wife and Started at the fur business again. At the ena of the first year he Was wiped out. By this time, however, be had learned something about management, and he was able to meet all liabilities and close his accounts with a clear conscience and a balance of $7. That was the time golf capes were ‘uy yogue, and Loew was soon at it again in a cape jobbing house. this time with a partner named Herman Baher. Then came the hard times of 1895--one after another the cape houses closed their doors. Only ten of the firms survived the storm, and Baher & Loew were among™the number. The partnership lasted for ten years, and when it came to an end Loew was well to do and something of a capitalist on his own account. It was in 1904 that opportunity came to him, guided by the friend he had made at the time of his failure. The fur dealer knew some out-of-town people who were planning to start the penny arcade and Loew was {n- vited to become a partner. He knew nothing about amusement enterprises at that time. chances CONTINUED ON TENTH PAGE, .

RE youse the City Mother?’’ asked a much towsled and excited boy of 12 as he put his head through an open door in the city hall of Los Angeles. ‘Cause if you are, I know you must be a pretty good lady,’’ he continued after a mo- ment’s glance at the silver-haired woman with the kindly eyes sitting at a desk. ‘So, l come to you because [I run away from home.” “Why did you run away from home?” ‘Well, it was just like this. I was taking the victrola to pieces to see how it worked and my two sisters caught me at it and they be- gan to beat me, and just about that time mother got home from work and she began to beat me, too. That was too much to have all three of ’em lickin’ me at once. I wouldn't have cared if it had been just one. So l picked up a broom and I Knocked one of ’em out all right, then I jumped out of the win- dow and beat it up here just as fast a@s | could.”’ Mrs. Gilbert talked with him and at last persuaded him to go back with a note that she had written to his mother. In a short time he was back with a word from.his mother saying that since he had left the city mother could look after him for she didn’t ever want to see him again. It became neces- sary to keep him for a few days. When his mother did at last come because she was again sent for, her defense for her treat- ment was that “the boy took everything to pieces. She couldn’t doathing with him! A clock or any bit of machinery about the place attracted him.’’ A home was found for this boy where he could be given some time to working around a machine shop with a man who appreciated the delight in taking things apart and putting them together again. As a consequence the boy is developing unusual mechanical ability. This lad like many small girls, young men and young women and, older men and older women finds the ready open door to the room which bears the sign, ‘City Mother,” a place to tell their troubles. & & Los Angeles is as yet tie only city in the world to establish the unique office of city mother. ‘‘Why not?” they asked. ‘‘We have long had city fathers, burgomasters, counsel- men, aldermen, judges, why not a elty mother?’”’ They chose Mrs. Aletha Gilbert, a woman of Jong experience in the ways of a city, having served on the police force. However, they wisely kept the new office semioffcial. Los Angeles and all California have been quick to appreciate the work that Mrs. Gil- bert has been doing. Call there any day and even some nights and there will be found some fifteen or twenty people waiting their turn to enter her inner office. Among them will be the learned and the ignorant, some middle-aged, some elderly, some young men and young women, some children. There is no limit to the scope of her serv- ice. She assists mothers who have lost con- trol over their unruly sons and daughters. She takes young people from the juvenile court and paves the way for a decent life be- fore the stigma of the police court can be at- tached. Domestic troubles of almost every nature are soothed and solved. Wives who are neglected by their husbands for various causes come for counsel and help. Hus- bands, too, who need counsel in dealing with recalcitrant wives come for suggestions, in- struction and admonition. Mrs. Gilbert’s of- fice has come to be a court of domestic rela- tions as well as a force for keeping the boys and girls from harm and danger. Recently a couple from the Eastern States visited California. They had a child a few years old with them. The husband had been addicted to drinking. In the past he would sometimes leave his home for several weeks and no one would know of his whereabouts Before reaching Los Angeles he had taken a ‘‘cure’’ and had been doing better. However, he soon fell in with bad associates in the Southern metropolis. He left his wife and child at the hotel with a very limited amount of money. When the husband’ did not return the wife was frantt®. She was in a strange city, among strange people, and alone. She was advised to tell the city mother of her troubles, which she did. From that of- fice detectives were sent out on the case and eventually located the husband. In the mean- time a position was secured for the wife and mother so that she could support her- self. The case ended satisfactorily with a united family and what is more important with precautions taken that would make 4 recurrence of the trouble difficult, if not im- possible. Sometimes it is the other way around. There was the hard-working husband who wanted his home carefully managed. He de- sired his wife to cease being extravagant. He accused her o§ caring more for the bright lights than for home and more for dancing than for him. His pleadings were in vain. He didn’t want a divorce, he wanted the sit- uation bettered in some way, Not knowing what else to do, he, in com- mon with those in trouble, went to Mrs. Gil-. bert, the city mother. He longed to talk things over confidentially. . Publicity was the last thing he wanted. He asked Mrs. Gilbert to talk with his wife, getting her to stop run- ning around nights and help to make the mar- riage partnership a success for the sake of the future. This case was all in the routine of the day and was handled with the same care, tact and skill as hundreds of others. As a result the Mita: You Shout aw In Buying White Goods When you approach the bedding section call to mind that to be comfortable a sheet should be long enough to tuck in at the bot- tom and have a wide fold of at least eight inches over the top of the blanket. Standard sizes for sheets range considerably, from a length of 90 inches to one of 113 inches. The 108 and 113-inch lengths permit comfortable tucking in and folding over. The longer sheet (108 or 113 inches) is especially neces- sary for beds with box springs. For a single bed you will find sheets 54x 90 or 1908 inches; 63x99 or 108 inches: 66 x99 or 108 inches. In the sizes for three- quarter beds, sheets come 72x99, 108 or 113 inches; 81x99, 108 or 113 inches. The 81- inch sheet is also used for double beds. Double-bed sizes are 90x99, 108 or 113 inches. Pillowcase sizes are usually based on the. width all around the pillow, while pillows are just measured for half the width. For instance, pillows 20x28 inches, 22x28 inches and 24x28 inches require cases 42x36 or 38% inches, 45x36 or 38% inches, 50x36 or 38% inches, For each one of the widths there ig also 40% inches length if an especially large pillow is desired.

You will find here that this year’s display of bedding will show some re- markable and very lovely color effects. If you like a blanket tucked in all around » With a generous fold-over, buy the larger size —double or three-quarter bed size for the single bed, a longer blanket than usual, &c. Lengths range from 76 to 90 inches; 60x80 inches is suitable for single beds; 60x80 inches or 66 inches by 82 inches for three- quarter beds, and 72x80, 72x82 or 72x84 inches for double beds. In bedspreads you must make up your mind before you go shopping how you will dress your bed, for the size spread you buy will be determined by the way the bed wears it. The attractive spread is wide enough to cover the mattress and spring along the side of the bed. A bed with a high mattress or box spring needs a wider spread than one with a flat spring. Spreads are made for single beds within a high spring in 64 to 66 inch widths, for single beds with high or box spring in 72-inch width; for three-quarter beds without. high spring, 72 inches; for three-quarter beds with high or box spring 81 inches; for double beds without high spring 81 inches; for double beds with high or box spring 90 inches. Lengths range from 90 to 108 inches. If a 90-inch spread is used, it is advisable to have a separate bolster cover matching the spread- The 100-inch length spreads up under the pillow and gives a smooth-finished appearance. It is becoming more and more popular to use a long spread which extends up under the pillow or bolster and folds back over the top.

Hoe ie couple are living together happily and the husband is getting ahead. Los Angeles like other large cities has many wayward young people. Youth today is having its fling and the city mother and her helpers have their hands full. Speaking of such cases Mrs. Gilbert says: “T find the lack of understanding between parent and child is frequently responsible for many difficulties. So many parents seem to be asleep to the dangers that surround their children. Dangers have multiplied a hun- dred-foldé in the past 25 years to our young people, owing to the fact that they are away from home so much of the time. Multiplied communication, swift travel and diversificd amusements constitute nothing less than men- aces to morality.” There are the cases where the city mother steps in to solve the old problem of those who love not wisely but too well. Typical was the case of the girl whose parents were both working, not because they needed to, but because they wanted more of the things that money would buy. Too late .the dis- tracted parents went to the city mother, but things had gone too far. The only hope was to gain the confidence of the girl so that she would tell the name of her boy lover. Mrs. Gilbert by a quiet talk learned who the boy was. “I wrote a letter to the boy,” she gays, “asking him to come in, which he did a few days later bringing a lawyer with him who began to plead the boy’s innocence. I told the lawyer that my office was not a court- room; that I was hot @ judge dealing with the law but that I was dealing with the hearts instead. “The lawyer, however,,continued to try to learn what evidence I had against the boy but to no avail.

He hesitated but I insisted that the only way to start right was to be absolutely square and tell the truth. I called the attorney from the outer office saying, ‘This young man has something to say to you.’ “Then the boy said very promptly, ‘I wish to apologize for lying to you as I have.’> As soon as the attorney could find his voice from utter surprise and astonishment his remark was, ‘You have one of your feet in the peni- tentiary right now.’ I interrupted by telling the lawyer not to frighten him my maki such statements. ishment. ‘‘After making a careful study of both fam- ilies, knowing that they were of the same class and the young fotks really cared for each other, I said to the young man, ‘I am going to let you render your own verdict. | waht you to go home tonight, think this mat- ter over seriously, and Sring the girl and her mother to my office tomorrow morning at 10 o’clodk and we will see what can be done.’ ‘Instead of being at my office at 10, he was there at 9 with the girl and her mother.

But the most gratifyips thing to me in han- dling this case, as in some others, was the deep sense of gratitude shown by every one— With the possible exception of the lawyer, ‘Girl nature,’ she says, “is today just as trusting.

She believes in moral suasion as a preventive and in having her bureau act in every way just as the fdeal mother would. As city mother the original object of her bureau was to prevent delinquency and pré- tect dependents; she and her assistants have come to be a clearing house for all the treu- bles of.the region around about. Yet the ob- ject of helping the young men and women has never been lost sight of. In preventing trouble and forestalling crime she and hor associates have saved the city and county many thousands of dollars annually, besides sustaining moral standards in the city.

While the ‘‘hafdest’’ X- rays that we produce in our hospitals cannot go through half an inch of‘ lead, these new rays, ori4inating somewhere out in space, will go through six feet of lead before they are extinguished. Such is the description by Dr. Robert An- drews Millikan of his amazing new discovery announced at the recent conventfon of the National Academy of Sciences at Madison,’ Wis., and hailed by scientists as rivaling in importance the discoveries of the X-ray and radium. The newly discovered rays, says the Febru- ary Popular Science Monthly, are shorter in wave length than ultra-violet rays, shorter than X-rays or even the gamma rays of ra-*» dium. They are the length of one ten-mil- lionth of an ordinary light wave, which meas- ures about one fifty-thousandth of an inch. No one knows where the rays come from. They originate somewhere out in space; ap- parently when atoms break up or when new types of atoms are formed, Dr. Millikan says that if we could generate enough energy for transmutation of metals—-for example,change mercury into gold—that would bring forth ea the penetrating rays as a by-product. But this would take the immense energy of 19,- 000,000 volts. The discovery of the immigrant rays is the climax of 20 years of research. For a long time scientists have noticed something mys- teriously disturbing their electroscopes-—tn- struments used to detect free electricity in the air. Dr. Millikan, searching for the cause, went outside of our higher atmes- phere. He sent up delicate featherweight in- struments in tiny captive balloons from mountain tops in Colorado, many miles above the earth’s surface, into regions where man could not go. Other instruments were °.#k 60 feet in snow fed lakes. These experiments eliminated certain factors and showed that the rays existed. .

Prof. Tur- ner quotes as his authority the recent annual report of the Corporation of Foreign Bond- holders of London, England. This report re- — that ‘‘while the United States has de- d much attention during the past year to a payment of obligations incurred by its allies- during the great war, no stelbs have been, taken by the defaulting States to recognize and pay their debts.’’ The story of how these debts came to be incurred is now part of American Mfiistory. At various times during the nineteenth cen- tury, before and after the civil war, a number of the Southern States, including Georgia, North Carolina, Arkansas, Virginia and Mis- sissippi, found themselves in monetary diffi- culties. They issued bonds, many of which were sold to the British public through Lon- don. Afterward many of the bonds were re- pudiated on the ground that the officials who issned them were ‘‘criminals and not consti- tutional representatives.’’ Prof. Turner sees the problem as one involving the good name of the nation, and urges that some honorable solution ‘be found. Prof. Turner’s article was sent to the of- ficial representatives of the various States in- volved, and of the total number communi- cated With the following have replied, answering Prof. Turner’s charges: Gov. Clif- ford M. Walker, of Georgia; Gov. A. W. Mc- Lean, of North Carolina; Gov. T. J. Terral, of Arkansas, and Second State Auditor Ros- well Page, of Virginia, on behalf of Gov. E. L.. Trinkle, of that State. The replies.are published following the article. Gov. Walker writes that the debts repudiated in Georgia were contracted in the interést of individuals who were criminals; the executive adds that ‘the revival of these incidents is not and can not be beneficial in any way, and I question the wisdom of con- tinually washing our dirty linen.” Gov. Me- Lean replies by stating in effect that ‘‘no legal or moral obligation rested upon the State to pay the bonds mentioned,’’ and an answer to the same purpose was received from Gov. Terral. Writing on behalf of Gov. Trinkle, ginia, Roswell Page, second auditor State, enters an emphatic protest against Prof. Turner’s statements as “incorrect and contrary to the evidence.’’ Mr. Page asserts that Virginia has recognized and met all her indebtedness, that the London Council of State Bondholders has recognized this fact and omitted Virginia from the list of States s0 charged, and he concludes with the com- ment, “‘the history of Virginia’s public debt is one of which sk bat be proud.”’ of Vir- of ‘the * * ‘GERMANS BLAME A. E. F. FOR DEFEAT IN 1918 The arrival of the American soidiers in France: in 1917-1918 was chiefly responsible for the turn of the tide in the world war which. brought about Germany’s surrender. Such is the conclusion reached by the German reichstag investigating committee, which has just completed its 5-year inquiry into the cause of Germiany’s defeat. The report of the investigating committee is explained and analyzed by S. Miles Bouton, formerly Asso- clated Press correspondent in Germany and now Berlin correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, “in an article in the January Current History Magazine. The committee found that miany factors contributed to the defeat of Germany. The military units were weak- ened by losses of men and material. Army morale was reduced by the ‘‘defeatist’’ prop- aganda of German independent socialists. The arrival of the Americans, however, wa$S “perhaps the most important factor of all,” “These it was who made all hope of even a stalemate vain. If the Americans had not come, the war could have gone on indefi- nitely.”’ The appearance of the Americans, accord- ing to the committee, was of psychological as well as material benefit. ‘‘Quite as im- portant as the arrival of the 2,000,000 fight- ing men was the fact that their appearance put new life and new hope into the exhausted and discouraged F'rench.’’ According to Mr. Bouton, the investigators found that “the American soldier showed himself to be brave even when untrained.’ The report concludes with the observation that all possible ef- fort was made by Germany to secure ‘a just peace,”’ INDIAN MOURNING RR “By FAUNCE ROCHESTER.

United States and Canada. In New York City alone more than 150,000 people can be entertained at a single per- formance in Loew theaters. Marcus Loéw was literally forced into the producing end of motion pictures to protect his theater properties. At the time he took over the Metro Pictures Corporation it was becoming difficult to obtain the best pictures for his theaters, and producers were wont to ask fabulous prices for their product. The purchase of Metro stopped this, however, and for a time he was well fortified. Then it seems that the “picture making bug.’ seized him, with the result that the. protectory measure became a hobby. Quite recently the Metro Pictures Corporation took in the Gold- wyn outfit, another producing firm as large and bringing with it a number of stars, di- rectors and stories. Following this Louis Bb. Mayer, formerly an independent producer, came in and took up the directorial reins at Hollywood, with the result that Marcus Loew now heads what was formerly three big con panies, the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Pictures Corporation. They also release the mammoth Cosmopolitan Productions starring Marion Davies. Time and hard work have brought phe- nomenal success to Marcus Loew, a success that no one would envy, but to the contrary hope sincerely that he thoroughly enjoys it. Like all trily big men, wealth and his power- ful position in his chosen field have not changed him, for Marcus Loew is as plain as the proverbial shoe. That he can inspire loyalty is evidenced in the fact that executives who threw their lot with him when he had little are still with him. Like him, they have not changed an iota and enjoy the same true loyalty from their subordinates as Marcus Loew himself. Nicholas M. Schenck, familiarly known as “Nick,” is second in command in all Loew activities, whether that activity concerns a theater or a production of a picture. Written quickly that may not seem so great a task to the average layman, but to fulfill its re- quirements requires the qualification of ua genius. David L. Bernstein, who began with Loew as an $18 a week bookkeeper, is stil! with him and is treasurer of his vast hold- ings. There are innumerable theater managers still on the payroll who began their theatrical] careérs with him, all giving mute evidence of the tremendous power he possesses to inspire loyalty.: -And so we close our race against Horatio Alger’s fictional characters with a similar theme based on fact, entitled: ‘*‘Marcus, the Newsboy, Has Arrived.’’ ‘move all marks of For a time, then, he led a model. life: Young love is a sacred thing.

When the note reached her, he would be dead. First, he would re- identification from his personal effects so that his suicide should not reflect upon her or his family. He wanted her to forget. If opportunity came, she should marry again. If God were just, he believed even that she should be happy. Cer- tainly, she could no longer love him. Surely, she could not grieve over his loss. As he penned this note, he found himself surrounded by that great calm which is the last, unending peace of all martyrs. He wrote dramatically and well. When he had finished, he read the note with a great sense of satisfaction. Perhaps, he should have been a writer. He liked his work. Calmly, he walked to the window and looked out. It was raining. A dreary night was affording the proper setting for the thing he was about to do. He went to the drawer of the table and took out the revolver. There, he knew, was quite the proper place from which to take it. In plays and novels. moving pictures and true stories, the revolver was always in the drawer of the table. He lifted it to his temple. Then, he paused. Suddenly, impulsively, he picked up the letter he had written her. Walking to the gas jet, he ignited it over the flame. Then, taking a cigarette, he used the burning letter —his last letter to her—to light his last ciga- rette, “T’m going to do this thing according to type,’’ he said to himself. “I’m arotter. As I've lived, I’m going to die. It would be cowardly to reform at so late a date. I[ want to do the right thing. I’ve always wanted to do it, but I can’t.

’ 4 ware: ’ J a y S. vg A 7 ; % * y Seeca sats f ry | The Bunny Tots THEY LEARN TO MAKE SKIS A Written and Illustrated By EDWARD McCLANDISH. The Bunny Tots had been looking at pic- tures, and spelling out stories in books about how folks put on the long, curved, wooden runners known as ‘‘skis’”’ and slid down snow- covered slopes as fast as the wind. It all looked quite simple. Master ‘Stout’? Bunny Tot was quite sure that he could do it without any practicing be- forehand. He took a couple of barrel staves and a stick or two, and showed the Bunny Tots—on the floor of the/living room—just exactly how the thing was done. He could climb to the top of a high hill—a very, very high hill—so as to get a good start, and then down the slope he would come, as fast as an express train. Yes, it was all really quite simple indeed! And the very next day it began to snow. The flakes grew larger and larger, until a great white blanket of snow covered every- ‘thing. | The Bunny Tots began breaking up some barrels which they found in the cellar, and nailing on some leather straps to fasten to their feet. Then they took some broom bandjes and made them into guide staves, and then they all felt quite sure they were ready for the skis.. So, out they went into the snowstorm with their brand new skis slung upon their backs, and up to the very tip, tap, top of the highest and steepest hill that they could find. , The hill was free of rocks and bushes, and PP ee renee R NRT ery quite clear of trees, with an even, straight, steep slope leading down into an open, snow- covered field. It was really quite a perfect place for a skiing party, and the Bunny Tots were quite delighted with the idea of the fun they were going to have. The first one to get his skis on was Tiny Bob Bunny Tot. But Bob he wasn’t ready to start down the slope. He said, ‘‘He was a beginner at that sort of thing, and just want- ed to lag behind a bit, and watch an ‘Old Timer’ like Stout was. Just to see how the trick was done.’’ But Stout. said: ‘Just go right ahead, Bobbie, and don’t you wait for your Uncle Bill!’”’ Tiny Bob said it was ‘“‘disrecpectful for a rank beginner to go ahead of a Winter Sport like ‘Stout.’ ”’ Then Stout seemed to be having trouble getting his skis on. At first he said they were, ‘‘much too tight.’’ One of the Bunny Tots loosened them for him, and then he said they were much too loose. Then he said that ‘‘His muffler needed fixin,’’’ and so THAT was attended to, and it looked like he was ready to start. With the eyes of all the Bunny Tots fixed right on him, he stepped out gingerly on his brand-new skis. He hobbled up to the edge of the incline; blew a kiss to one of the Bunny Tot girls; waved his hand jauntily to all the rest, and gave himself a little push— and was off, down the slope. Down—down—down the steep hill he flew on his barrel staves! Faster and faster, the farther he went! Until, all of a sudden—his feet flew from under him, and he landed in a snowdrift and disappeared from sight! Not even a saint could have kept from laughing! | | Some of the Bunny Tots laughed so hard that they fell over the steep bank and rolled to the bottom. . But after a while several of the Bunny Tots went in and dug poor Stout out of the big, deep snowdrift, and he was glad to GET out, too, I can tell you! In the next story I am going to tell you some other things that happened that time, when the Bunny Tots had their first skiing party. eg (Copyright, 1926, by Kdward McCandlish.)

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, JANUARY aii i 17, * 1926. A Time of Peril. (Winner of $1 Cash Prize.) Such an excitement there was at the Blakes. Mabel had been taken sick’ with scarlet fever and Harry had been obliged to go to his uncle’s. At first he had protested against this. Knowing his aunt and uncle were childless, he thought he would be lonesome. But, after much persuasion, he consented to go with the assurance he would be sent for as soon as the danger was over. But after his arrival at the farm he quite foygot his fear of being lonesome in his ad- miration of the beautiful home where he was to spend his time. The old homestead was just in sight of the blue waters of the bay. In the background was a pretty stretch of woods. .Not far from the house’ was a large cliff whose dark proportions overlooked the bay. When Harry was making his first tour of the grounds with his uncle, ‘the latter advised him never to go any farther than the cliff, as the tide was dangerous. Now Harry had no sooner been told not to zo beyond the cliff than he felt a great de- sire to do so. He tried to put the thought out of his mind, but did not succeed. next morning after his uncle had left the ‘-house, Harry. slowly sauntered down the lane that led to the cliff. He was soon engaged in picking up some shells which were along the shore. . Suddenly the splashing of water warned him of the danger he was. in-—turn- ing around he noticed that the tide had be- gun to seek.the shore. In the meantime, Mrs. Brooks, who had seen Harry leave. the house, felt. no .anxiety about him, thinking he would soon return. After many hours had passed Harry had not come back. . She grew alarmed. Sending a hired ‘man for:her husband, ‘she paced Slow- ly up and down the porch, Mr. Brook’s face became grave when she told him her fears. Questioning the hired man, he learned that Harry had gone in the. direction of the cliff. Hurrying to the shore he perceived that the tide had turned. He jumped in a row’ boat and quickly proceeded in the direction of the cliff. Let us see what Harry -has been doing all this time. When he had first realized the tide had turned, he had-attempted to retrace his steps. Finding this impossible, as the water soon reached his knees, ‘hé turned to the rocky cliff. His situation was indeed On the one side the dark, sullen waters and on ‘the other the masses of stone. Almost directly over his head was a ledge of rock. After much scrambling Harry §suc- ceeded in climbing to this narrow perch. He shouted across the bay, but only the echo of his own voice responded to his cries. Just at the critical moment when the waves began to wash over the ledge, a familiar A monfent later his uncle’s boat came in sight. As soon as the boat came near the ledge, Mr. Brooks lifted Harry inthe boat. Sinking wearily in his uncle’s: arms the poor boy collapsed. When he regained his senses, Harry found himself in his bed, his aunt leaning over him applying restoratives. Under the gentle care he received he was soon able to run around again. But the lesson left an impression on his mind. Whenever he was tempted to do what was forbidden, the picture of the dark waters of the cliff would rise in his mind and he would instantly repel it.

WRIGHT (aged 13). 1110 Twenty-fifth street northwest. Only a Dream. (Winner of $1 Cash Prize) Mary Mae was playing with the beautiful new doll that old Santa had brought her for Christmas. She liked all of her toys, but somehow she liked her new doll best. The doll’s name was Gloria... Mary Mae had been playing in the nursery all.day and it was nearly time to gq to bed. She was very sleepy and suddenly she laid her head upon her big white teddy bear and fell fast asleep. The big clock in the hall struck seven, and all the toys came to life. The big white teddy bear wriggled himself from under Mary Mae’s head. All the toys were scattered about the nursery. The tin soldier was arresting the funny little man in the toy automobile for speeding. The jack-in-the-box jumped up and frightened the rag doll. Teddy hopped into his aeroplane and flew around the nur- sery. Teddy saw the fire engines race over to the big doll house. There was a terrible fire. In all the excitement Teddy lost con- trol of his aeroplane. Splash! Right into the duck* pond. Gloria and the tin soldier came to his assistance. Between the two of them they finally got Teddy out of the pond. ' /All the — Just then the clock struck eight. toys were still once more. Mary Mae was awakened by the clock and was sitting in the middle of. the nursery. The nurse came in and told Mary Mae it was time to go to bed, so she knew she had only been dreaming. DOROTHY DOYLE (age 12). 739 Sixth street southeast. Bes A Police Dog. (Honorable Mention) It was one of those coid wintfy days, when the temperature is” zero, water is ice. and sleigh riding is the greatest sport. Jack Riley was out with two larger boys his playmates, and was having a fine time With his new Flexible Flyer, which he had received for Christmas. “Gee, Jack, wish you'd let us go‘down the hill on it once,” said Frank, who was the largest of the three. 1 “Well, I'm right tired, guess you can ride down a couple times,” agreed Jack, and he sat down in the snow, propped his feet up, and stuck his hands under his knees. “Sit Town, Pal,” he said, patting the head of his dog, who was as big, if not bigger, than Jack himself. The big Saint Bernard dog, shivered, came over to the side of his little master, and sat down in the snow be- side him. He gazed at the boy. a while with his big, brown, soulful eyes, and then turned to see the boys trudging back up the hill, and pull- ing the sleigh behind them. “0 boy, I'd like to stay here all hay and night, to sleigh ride, if I wouldn’t get so tired,” Jack replied in an undertone, as he turned to the dog, who stood up wagging | his tail responsively. “This is sure some sleigh,” one boy Shouted to Jack, and then both piled on it again, and whizzed down the slippery hill: only to come plodding breathlessly back a few minutes later. This action they re- peated several times, the last time being un- usually long returning. “Lem’me ride again now,”’ called Jack, as he jumped up and started toward them. “O, it’s so good we hate to. stop,”’ they called. ‘‘Just this one more ride; we’ll be right ba¢k,’’ and the sleigh raced on down the hill ‘again. Jack ‘waited a long time’ but no boys or sleigh came back, he looked for Pal, but he was gone also. He whistled and shouted, first for the boys and then for his dog, but no response came. It was nearly dark and he decided to give up and go home; but if he went home, surely it would only be worse, for he would get a severe scolding for having let the boys steal his sled, and perhaps his dog, too. What would his mother and fa- ther say? He was terribly hungry, would they send him to bed without his supper? He began ‘to shake and shiver, as such thoughts as these crept into his mind and a chilly wind began to blow over the fast dark- ening landscape. ‘‘Oo0-00-00, it’s cold, guess I'd better go home and get warm anyhow, I'll have to take the chance of being sent to bed without supper, and he hurried aJong the path. As be least expected he sat down to a steaming hot dinner with the rest of the family that evening, and enjoyed it im- mensely; for as he had entered his back gate, a few minutes before, Pal had come running up to him and pulled him to the steps of the back porch, under which he saw the new flyer safely concealed. “So they decided to bring it back any- way,” he said, patting the dog’s head. Pal wagged his tail and gave a few sharp barks, as if trying to tell his master he had guessed wrong. For he had followed the boys home, and after they had gone into the house, he had sneaked into the yard, taken the rope, Which was fastened to the sled, in his big jaws, and trotted triumphantly hqme with the trophy. tT MILDRED COOK (age 15). 2417 Franklin street northeast, oo Not Quarreling. ; My sister was playing out in the yard with a little school friend.

For the benefit of those who have no ra- dios in their homes I will repeat some of the high lights of the little journey. In the first place, how many of you knew that all of our Presidents with the exception of George Washington lived in the White House and even he selected its site in 1791 and was pres- ent at the laying of its corner stone on Oc- tober 13, 1792. It is said that only a few days before the death of George Washington he walked through the unfinished rooms of the White House. One of the wonderful rooms of the White House as it stands today is the east room, 40 feet wide and 82 feet long. Many historic events have taken placein this room, including several White House weddings. In this room is the famous gold piano which cost $16,000, presented by a New York firm of plano mak- ers. Other state rooms on this main floor are the blue room where President and Mrs. Coolidge receive at state receptions. On the mantel piece of the blue room jis a clock given by Napoleon to Gen. Lafayette and then pre- sented by Lafayette to George Washington. Next to the room is the green room which also has some priceless relics in it. In the red room hangs a portrait of Gen. George Washington, painted from life, which is the picture which Dolly Madison cut from its frame when the British were coming to burn the White House. The state dining room has a table in it which will seat 100 guests. It is a handsome room paneled in dark English oak. Several requests have come in for the re-, newal of the cross-word puzzle contests. A book prize will be given for the best original cross-word puzzle with solution attached, re- ceived by next Saturday noon. The puzzle must be done in ink and must be signed with the name, age, address and school of the sender. Do not forget the Washington and Lincoln essay contests for February. To learn inter- esting facts about these great is asplen- did thing for any boy or gir] and’even if your essay should not win the prize there is a rich reward in trying to.

Another meal! How tired you get of “the same old thing.” | Why not vary the daily routine a little by serving “Canada Dry” for dinner? Serve it as you would a rare old wine—in graceful, tinkling crystal. Watch it dance and sparkle. Catch the delicate, enticing bouquet. Note the pale, champagne-like color. Then raise it to your lips and drink. Revel in its keen refreshment—in the joyousness it adds to any meal. Reflect how it sets you tingling—sends you away from the table feeling keener, fresher, brighter. No other ginger ale can bring you such refreshment because there is no other ginger ale like “Canada Dry.” It has the true ginger flavor because it is ‘made from real Jamaica ginger. Cheap ginger ales, you know, are usually made with capsicum (or plain every-day red pepper), and that is why they have that burning, biting taste. There is no capsicum in “Canada Dry.” Serve it tonight at dinner and surprise your family and your guests. You will never forget the wonderful flavor. Regarding Imitattons For your own protection, remember that not’ every ginger ale sold in a,green bottle is “Canada Dry.” Always look for the name on the bottle cap.

Long before “Canada Dry” was introduced into this country it was served in leading hospitals in Canada. It is now served in leading hospitals in the United States and prescribed by physi- cians whenever the case manage- ment calls for a beverage of unquestioned purity. These are facts worth remem- bering when you order a bever- age for your home.
