President von Hindenburg, resum- | ing the role of field marchal, to-; day summoned the leaders of the’ reichstag parties to the executive, mansion, and, after demanding that all political bickerings and contro- versy cease, plainly intimated that the choice lay between a dictator- ship or parliamentary government. Pettifogging politics as exhibited in the German parliamentary crisis roused the old soldier ire of Von Hindenburg, and he determined to put an end to the political im- | passe which has left Germany with- | out a duly authorized government for more than six weeks. The president’s forceful language and unquestioned determination had the desired effect, for less than three hours after the political lead- ers had left his presence, Chancel- lor Luther was able to announce the roster of his new cabinet, which he will introduce in the _ reichstag Thursday. . | Says Crisis Must Cease. | ‘These sorry exhibitions of a per- | ennial government crisis must) cease,” declared Hindenburg. ‘‘The | condition of the fatherland more | than ever now demands construc- | tive work.”’ .

The deputies listened to th presidential admonition with an outward display of decorum and were then escorted by Dr. Luther to the chancellery, where a list of cabinet members was drafted by the chancellor and submitted with the request that it be ratified br 10 o’clock.

POLICEMEN ALLEGED TO HAVE BEATEN MAN Postal Truck Driver Mistaken for Bandit; Investigation to Be Made. Mistaken for an escaping bandit, Alexander T.

P.). — The “Little Red School House” on the Gardner-Winchendon road here has been purchased by a representative of Henry Ford and will be added to the manufacturer’s collection of early American build- ings surrounding Wayside Inn at Sudbury. | Built in 1801 and still bearing much of the traditional coat of red paint, the school is believed to be one of the oldest left standing in New England.

WHITE HOUSE DOUBTS WISDOM OF PROVISION Mellon Figure Believed Too Precarious. bill already is assured in the Sen- ate, it developed yesterday after a meeting of more than a score of senators who object to the elimina- tion of the inheritance tax. Later the opposition bloc claimed to have increased its strength to 30. It was stated at the meeting, attended by some of the most de- termined ‘‘fighting senators.” that they would oppose this feature of the bill to the last ditch and hear no compromise. (By the Associated Press. ) The Senate compromise tax re- duction bill was looked upon with hopeful but skeptical eyes yester- day at the White House and at the Treasury. It was stated at the White House that, while President Coolidge was in fayor of retirement of the Fed- eral government from the field of inheritance taxation in favor of the states, he was not prepared to state whether the time had come for re- peal of the Federal levy, as pro- posed by the bill. Would Raise Corporation Rate. Compilation of estimates on the total reduction provided for in the bill, meanwhile, brought a quick alarm from the Treasury when it was disclosed that thé’ measure would make a slash of almost $400,000,000 in the nation’s reve- nues this year. The Senate finance committee was immediately called into session, and dividing on party lines, the Republicans voted to in- of the bill into law. The committee previously had voted to increase this levy from 12142 to 13 per cent on taxes paid this year and to 13% per cent next year to offset the loss of revenue expected from the proposed repeal of the capital stock tax. By making the rate 13149 per cent immediate- ly, Chairman Smoot estimated this would yield $43,000,000 additional revenue this year and cut the re 000,000. Cut Believed too Great. Even this excess over the $330,- 000,009 limit approved by Secre- tary Mellon was frowned upon by the President, who felt that, while the Treasury might stand the addi- tional reduction, difficulties might be encountered if there was a de- pression in business which would decrease government revenues. Senator Simmons, of North Caro- lina, ranking Democrat on the com- mittee, announced that he would propose to the Senate that it meet any tax reduction abore the Treas- ury surplus by amendment of the sinking fund provisions rather than through increases in taxes. He proposed that the amount of the sinking fund, created to retire the public debt, be increased from 2% per cent of the domestic debt to 3% per cent, and that the cost of this be cut by applying to it the payments received from foreign na- tions on account of war debts. This would increase from $253,- 000,000 to $360,000,000 the an- nual amount of the sinking fund, Senator Simmons estimated, but of this sum, about $175,000,000 would be provided by debt payments, and CONTINUED ON KIGHTEENTH PAGE. 30-Below-Zero Wave Strikes Northwest St.Paul, Minn., Jan. 19 (By A.

MOVE FOR CLOTURE Johnson and Reed Assail Propaganda in U. S. ° for Protocol. OPPOSITION REPORTED INCREASING IN WEST Partiality Alleged in Tactics of Proponents in Charge of Debate. By ALBERT W. FOX. Opponents of the world court scored heavily yesterday through speeches by Senators Hiram John- son and Reed of Missouri, through the abandonment of the cloture move and through encouraging re- ports of anticourt sentiment in the country, especially the West. The tax bill will be reported to the Senate today, and it is believed that further anticourt sentiment may develop if it appears to the country that internationalists are endangering the hope for tax re- ductions by March 15. Altogether it was a rather discouraging day for procourt forces. A new leader appeared, however, in carrying the banner of world peace. Senator Heflin consumed a good part of the afternoon with an eloquent speech which pleased the galleries far more than it pleased Senator Lenroot, leader of the pro- court drive. Mr. Heflin made it un- mistakably clear that he was for peace, for the league and for the court. He also made it clear that he had never read the court statute or the protocol, for he mixed them up indiscriminately and finally solved the difficulty by repeated references to “‘this proposition.” Meet Hour Earlier Today. But Mr. Lenroot, nevertheless, holds the opposition guilty of time wasting and brought about a recess until 11 o’clock instead of noon to- day, after the fireworks were over, so that the hour's lost time might be made up. In this connection there is de- veloping a bitter feeling in the Senate over the methods which Sen- ator Lenroot is following in deal- ing with the court opponents. The direct charge of unfairness was made by one of the leaders last night, who pointed out that even the closest of Mr. Lenroot’s associ- ates, including Senator Curtis, the Republican leader, do not entirely sanction a program which gives every consideration to the court supporters and denies like privi- leges to those who are against the When court proponents spoke, it is pointed out, there was no dis- posiion to hurry or harass them. Senator Swanson made a speech, after which the Senate adjourned. Senator Walsh made a_ speech. after which adjournment was taken. Mr. Walsh then made a second carefully prepared speech on a different day and a third on another day and on each occasion it apparently was felt that the Sen- ate had heard enough and could adjourn. The same treatment was accorded Senator Bruce, who spoke for the court. Partiality Is Alleged. But now tbat the opponents are beginning to deliver their counter attacks, Senator Lenroot demands that they come in sequence, one after the other, all on the same day, as if their speeches amounted to nothing. And unless some CONTINUED ON EIGHTEENTH PAGE. Index to Today’s Issue. Pages. 1—Hindenburg Warns of Dictator. Estate Tax Repeal Brings Fight Abandon Cloture Court Move. Traffic Bill Assailed.

Sweeping disapproval of all the chief proposals of the Blanton bill to increase the salary and power of the director of traffic was expressed yesterday by the District board of commissioners in a report on the measure to Congress. Plain lan- guage was employed to express the commissioners’ disapproval of the critical attitude of Director M. O. Eldridge toward the police depart- ment and their dissent from the plan to give him @Gontrol of police enforcement of his regulations. The commissioners told Congress they were opposed to any funda- mental changes in the traffic act of 1925, which had received only eight months of trial. Nearly every sec- minor provisions were approved in principle. The chief features pro- vided for in the bill and disapproved in entirety by the commissioners were as follows: Increase of Director M. O. Eld- ridge’s salary to $10,000 and of Assistant Director I. C. Moller’s to $7,500 a year, and of his term of office from three to six years. Creation of a bureau to register motor vehicles and issue identifi- cation tags, registry certificates and operators’ permits. Giving the director of police con- trol over the police traffic bureau and adding 75 motorcycle and 26 foot patrolmen thereto. Extending the director's jurisdic- tion to street car traffic and traf- tion of the bill was marked for elimination or rewritten. Certain | CONTINUED ON NINTH PAGE. BRITISH LAWYERS BETTER WOMAN CHASES ALLEGED EDUCATED, STONE ofYs Justice Holds England Out- ranks United States in Quality of Profession. — ee ADDRESSES FRATERNITY: FIRST GIV England outranks the United States in the average quality its law profession because British lawyers are better educat- ed and have a higher sense of dignity, Associate Justice Harlan F. Stone, of the United States Supreme Court, declared at the initiation banquet of ‘Phi Beta Gamma of the National university in the Mayflower hotel last night. “Our profession is better trained technically in this country than in any other nation in the world,’’ he continued, ‘‘yet the average qual- ity of our profession is not equal , to the English bar.’’ This is true, according to Justiee Stone, not because the British are better trained but because they are better educated. He said he did not use the word “educated” in its narrow sense of going to col- lege but rather in the broader sense of a better realization of the relation of the profession to other phases of the social order. He concluded with an appeal to the students to seek a better sense of proportion and endeavor to hu- manize the profession.

Nicocio Napisa, years old, of 1514 Ninth stréet northwest, was arrested by Park Policeman John F. Connelly and lodged in the First precinct, on a charge preferred by Mrs. Morris, and also on a charge }of breaking park regulations. Mrs. Morris had left her’ rooms at the Willard hotel and was on her way to a meeting of the Daughters of the American Revolution in Con- tinnental Memorial] hall, when she encountered the man on the Ellipse about a block north of Seventeenth and B streets. Incensed at his remarks and ac- tions, Mrs. Morris. according to police, struck Napisa in the face with her fist. Another blow in ’the neck knocked him to the ground. Mrs. Morris then grappled with him, telling police she ‘‘gave him a good beating.”’ Napisa, according to police, got 97 = t the District Supreme court, and | Peyton Gordon, United States dis- trict attorney for the District, were initiated into the fraternity.

Dr. Cook, who claimed to have discovered the north pole, is serving a 14-year sentence for using the mails to de- fraud. The two arctic explorers passed three-quarters of an hour together, Capt. Amundsen telling Dr. Cook of his recent airplane dash for the friendship. Dr. Cook and Capt. Amundsen were companions two years on the Belgian Anarctic éxpe- up and ran, with Mrs. Morris in pursuit. He was stopped at the pool by Policeman Connelly, who in response to a question was told by Napisa that he ‘‘was running for 'exercise.’’ Mrs. Morris had caught up with the fugitive by this time and told Connelly of the affair. Napisa was then taken to the First precinct. He is to appear in poiice court this morning. ART THIEVES SELECT LOOT BY CATALOGUE Take $50,000 in Etchings From New York Gallery; Work for Hours. New York, Jan. 19 (By A. P.).— Thieves stole 200 etchings, valued at $50,000, from the Schwartz gal- leries in Madison avenue last night, selecting their loot by aid of a cata- logue. Etchings and paintings val- ued at $100,000. but which were not listed, were left on the walls. The theft was discovered this morning when a clerk opened the galleries and found the rooms in disorder. The thieves are thought to have worked for several hours, selecting and packing the etchings. Among the etchings taken were! works of Whistler, Zorn, Camerson, Pepere and Legros. Two newly acquired etchings by Whistler, val- ued at $2,000 each, were not taken.

ADDRESS FOLLOWS DINNER TO COOLIDGES Nearly Shatters Special Stand Built for President With Emphatic Gestures. Charles G. broadcasting President Dawes last night. from WRC, resumed his attack against Senate rules. It was a characteristic Dawes’ speech. filled with vehemence. The speech was rebroadcast to Massachusetts Institute of Technol- ogy alumni banquets in 67 cities from Oakland, Calif.. to New Eng- land. Mr. Dawes spoke extempo- raneously and his bitter denuncia- tion was almost entirely unexpected. His address followed a dinner which he and Mrs. Dawes gave in their home, 1620 Belmont street northwest, in honor of President and Mrs. Coolidge. The Vice _President left his home and going to WRC studio proceeded to tell audiences throughout the country just what he thought of the Senate rules. Vice Makes Microphone “Blast.” the course of Vice President Several times in his address the made the ‘‘mike,’’ as the broadcast- ing transmitting instrument is known, ‘‘blast’’ with the vehemence of his eloquence. Studio officials, taken by surprise, hesitated to put the ‘‘mike”’ farther away from Mr. Dawes’ vociferousness and the ‘‘blast,’’ perforce, went out through the air. The “blast” is caused by a too loud sound poured into the microphone. The stand before which the Vice President stood while he spoke his excoriation into the microphone was one which had been especially con- structed to hold the manuscript of President Coolidge’s speeches. In order that the President should not be inconvenienced, the broadcasting station constructed a special stand to his measure on which to lay his manuscript and it was this on which Vice President Dawes slammed his fist by way of emphasis to such effect as almost to shatter it. Any man in the United States Senate, Mr. Dawes declared, just to stop passage of important legisla- tion, can read a magazine, or talk about almost anything else. “T spent an hour and a half in Senate today and ‘heard the reading of a magazine article and this prompted me to bring the ques- tion of the failure of the Senate rules to your attention,’”’ the Vice President declared. the Cites Reading for Reed, Although he did not mention any names, Mr. Dawes had reference to a magazine article published in 1893 and written by Andrew Car- negie which Senator Reed, of Mis- souri, had Senate secretary read in the course of the debate on the world court. “The rules permit a discussion of the any subject, whether It is relevant or not,’’ he continued. “I have been forced to a discussion of the rules by the reading of the maga- zine article. “Please allow me to state that it was neither my purpose por inten- tion to do so at this time. It is high time that the people wake up and write their Senators what they think of this procedure. “T am speaking to an intelligent audience.

Belew, had left the eourtroom, the prosecution went on another tack and called witnesses to testify about telegrams Wan is alleged to have sent his brother, Van, shortly before the triple mur- der here in 1919. The spectators in the tiny court- room were waiting to see what would be developed in regard to the telegrams when Attorney Horning ‘arose and asked permission to in- troduce the testimony of Fohan Chen. This testimony would show that awe had induced Wan to de- posit $2,000 in a certain New York bank, EMPLOYES ON STAND | That Chinese Was Induced to Deposit $2,000. P The question of whether the testimony of missing or deceased witnésses shall be admitted as evi- dence in the Wan murder trial was partly settled in criminal court yes- terday by Justice Wendell P. Staf- ford. Justice Stafford ruled that the testimony of Fehan Chen, a Chinese who has mysteriously disappeared since the first Wan trial, should be admitted this morning, but with the reservation that shall have the right certain portions of it. When the prosecution and the de- fense become deadlocked over the guestion of admitting portions of Chen’s testimony, Justice Stafford will act as umpire. to object Stenographers On Stand. It was explained that Justice Stafford’s ruling applies only to the testimony of Chen and does not set up a precedent for the admission of the testimony of other missing wit- nesses and of witnesses who have died.

She walked here from Santa Fe, N. Mex., a distance of 2,600 miles, in three months. , Four ‘years ago Miss Pettingill suffered a nervous’ breakdown After doctors failed to cure her, she took matters in her own hands and started on the walking tour. At first the hiking was very difficult. Later, as she became accustomed to the walking, it became great fun. During her journeys she has toured all through the country and into Mexico. Miss Pettingill has never carried a revolver, she says, and has had but one encounter with a hold-up man. She broke his arm. It. hap- pened in East St. Louis. When the hold-up man was asked by police if she was the girl he had held up, he grunted and remarked ‘‘Girl — , wild-cat.”’ As her money ran-short, Miss Pettingill would find employment and stay a while until she had cash for another venture into the un- known. She picked cotton for two months, living in a tent near the cotton fields. The girl hiker, who doesn't strain the eyes a bit, says she is going to Yellowstone national park next summer.

Boys as “Police.” WOULD ACT AS ESCORTS Organization of a schoolboy pa- trol to regulate traffic about schools during the hours pupils are about school buildings was proposed by M. O. Eldridge, traffic director, to the safety committee of the public schools and approved by the com- mittee at a meeting in the Franklin school yesterday. The selected boys would be given would wear white Sam Brown belts to distinguish them from their fellow pupils, and would be armed with literature on traffic regulation. It was suggested that the patrol report for duty each school day at 8:30 o’clock in the morning, re- maining on post until classes be- gan, aiding smaller children across the streets about the schools. They would be on duty also at recesses and after school until children have had opportunity to leave for their homes. Although no official authority would be given the patrols, Mr. El- dridge declared that automobilists refusing to obey their signals to permit them to escort pupils across streets ‘safely could be reached under the reckless driving clause and the provision giving pedestri- ans the right of way in cross walks. The bélts, Mr. Eldridge said, probably would be donated by one of the large business associations. C. P. Clark, assistant manager of tion, present at the meeting, de- clared his association will supply copies of traffic ing with safety for distribution to all of the school pupils. B. W. Murch, chairman of the school safety committee, will work out details of the plan with the assistance of two other commit- tee members whom he will appoint. It is agreed, Mr. Murch declared, that traffic safety regulations must be taught by teachers in all classes Fogger the schools. “We need the cooperation of the ntire public in making our streets ile for pedestrians and motorists alike,”’ Mr. Eldridge declared. “If this plan results in the sav- ing of only one child’s life in a syear it will be worth more than all of the trouble it costs.’’ regulations deal- $ Make That Luncheon Appointment at The Harrington Special Luncheon, 75c A la Carte If Preferred Management FRANK MAYER TROUSERS To Match Your Odd Coats EISEMAN’S, 7th & F ‘Stop env envying owners of j Studebak |-Power Durability: f Finish | NOTICES MEETING OF THE ié Washington Post lection of director s for the “§ wil) be held on THU BEDA TX.

~ MEXICAN MINISTER DEFENDS LAND LAW; TERMS TT LEMENT American Protest Against Retroactive Feature Not Answered in Statement. SAYS GOVERNMENT HAS RIGHT os EAAGT PLEDGE Points to leninibestion and Ownership Restrictions in This Country. A es (By Associated Press.) Every provision of the Mexican a‘ntialien land law’’ was defended in a statement by Foreign Minister Saenz, made public here last night by the Mexican embassy, simulta- ueously with its issuance at Mexico City. The document, about 4,000 words in length, was in the form of a diplomatic brief similar to the communications sent by Mexico to the United States in reply to the American protests which followed the original promulgation of the Mexican Constitution of 1917, with its famous Article 27, which the land law is designed to effect. The protests of the United States gov- ernment directed against retro- active provisions of the law in the last few months were not men- tioned in the statement. Minister Saenz asserted at the outset that “‘the organic law of sec- tion 1 of Article 27 of the Constitu- tiou can not be considered as an alien law,’’ because it does not treat of the status of foreigners, but of the constitutional rights ‘‘of. Mexi- cans and Mexican corporations for the acquisition of lands, waters and their appurtenances, or of conces- sions to develop mines, waters and mineral! fuels in the republic.’’ He emphasized that the foreigner was given every right to acquire land, stock in Mexican companies or con- cessions, if he ‘‘agrees not to have recourse to other means of making his rights effective than those which are granted bv Mexican laws tq Mexicans.”’ Must Waiye Appcals. The law provides that land, or stock in corporations owning land, legally acquired, may be enjoyed until death, but that heirs, to come into possession of it, must agree not to appeal] to their governments in eases of disputes involving it. The State Department has taken the position that no American can waive his national rights in such manner. The contention that such a pro- Vision injures the right of prop- erty, Minister Saenz argued, ‘‘is, in spite of its apparent truth, sophis- tica].’’ caf | Ame Mexican legislate upon agreement (of to appeal to his tered into with it. aed within the scope of the gzovernment,’’ he said, ‘‘to the effects of the the foreigner not government) en- It will be with- DIED > BELL-—On Monday, January 18, 1986, residence of his Sister, Mrs. M.

Every sovereign state can modify existing individual rights, and it is a matter pertaining to the state itself to weigh the ad- vantages and disadvantages which a new law may | have for the com- munity. *°* ° Says Provisions Ample. ‘“‘As it will be seen, the law, far from injuring acquired rights, is ex- tremely lenient with foretgners, since it affords them ample oppor- tunity to comply with the provisions of the constitution of the repub- lic. * + a ‘ “The requirements (of waiving the right to appeal to a foreign gov- ernment) are merely a condition imposed by Mexico, in the form of an agreement concluded between the foreigner and the government. When any of the parties to an agreement does not carry it out, he becomes subject to the penalties provided for in the agreement or jn other laws. In this case, it is a mat- ter of a penalty established in the agreement itself. It ts a condition to permit a foreigner to acquire real property in Mexico.’ Referring to the prospective reg- ulations under the law, which, it has been promised, will lessen the pressure of the new law upon for- eigners, the statement said that the “obligation imposed on foreigners to acquire participation in Mexican corporations might be construed as setting up a hindrance to the. de- velopment of stock companies,”’ but that the regulations would provide that Mexican stock companies might obtain permission to make an agree- ment in the name of their stock- holders for them to be considered as Mexicans, “‘in so far as regards their participations and placing on the printed shares such a stipula- tion.”’ Sees Rights Protected. The rights of petroleum and min- ing companies holding concessions or franchises only to the subsoil, the minister declared, are protected un. | der the law, the only purpose of which, he insisted, is to ‘“‘reserve to Mexicans what is essential in the cultivation and enjoyment of arable lands.”’ “The right w hich Mexico has to do so is undeniable,”’ he asserted. * * * “It is the purpose of the govern- ment to prevent foreign interests from being’ molested by the develop- ment of the agrarian policy, thus avoiding in advance, possible diplo- matic discussions with friendly na- tions. ‘It is possible to point out that thés policy of the Mexican govern- ment is more liberal: than that of the United States, where, by means of immigration laws, foreigners are practically barred from establish- ing themselves in its territory, in a great part of which residence is re- quired as a condition to the acqul- sition of real property.” 30 Injunction Suits Began Against Retroactive Law Mexico City, Jan. 19 (By A.

Approximately 30 applications for injunctions to restrain the govern- ment from retroactive application of the new petroleum law have been filed in the district courts by for- eign oil companies. Meanwhile committees represent- | ing the oil companies and Louis Morones, minister of industry, com- merce and labor, are continuing their joint study of details nected with the petroleum law. Senor Morones is expected to base ‘his promulgation of detailed regu- lations for the enforcement of the law on this study. Court-action on ‘the injunction proceedings is not expected soon, but will’ probably ‘lawait publication of the minister’s regulations.

THIRD WOMAN SLAIN BY TOLEDO CLUBEEI: IS SEVENTH VICTIM, Body of Mary Handley Found in Yard; Had Been Felled While on Sidewalk. TERROR IN THE CITY RENEWED BY ATTACK Four Others, Struck on Head by Assailant, Survive Their Injuries. Toledo, Jan. 19 (By A. P.).—The body of Mary Handley, 42 years old, seventh victim of a «lubber in Toledo in less than a year, was found early today in a yard next to her home. Her head was crushed and she had been gagged with strips of cloth torn from _ her clothing. Blood stains on the sidewalk, police said, indicate Miss Handley had been attacked there and dragged into the yard. -The body was found by Mrs. Mattie Sturrell | i'that body and, despite “‘policy”’ de- when she started her daughter to school today. It was covered with | a raincoat. The scene of the tragé- | dy is in the heart of the district | where the clubber operated a few months ago. Miss Handley is the third woman whose death is at- tributed to the _ clubber. Four women have been injured by the maniac. . Miss Handley had been away from her home since Sunday morn- ing. She had gone on a trip and was expected to return Sunday night. With the finding of the body of Miss Handley, fear of the clubber again spread throughout the city, and the authorities were renewing their efforts to find the man who has thrown terror in the hearts of thousands of Toledo women in the last few months. A reward of $1.000 offered by the city council several months ago, fol- lowing the death of the second woman, still stands. Wide Search Is Vain. Last September, October and November the police department of the city received almost nightly calls from various sections of the city reporting renewed attacks by the clubber. On investigation many of these were found to be erroneous, Many women having im- agined they had seen the clubber. For several nights citizens organ- ized hunts for the clubber and pa- raded the streets armed with im- provised weapons. A dozen or more suspects were arrested, but all were released, as there was not evidence For months Toledo women have feared to venture on the streets alone after nightfall. The strange history of the club- ber’s terrorization opens on May 24, 1925, when Mrs. Emma Hat- field, 48, was attacked by a mys- terious assailant as she passed an alley. She was dragged into the alley and beaten on the head with a club or hammer. Her clothes were shredded, her body had a hundred cuts and bruises, and her skull splintered in several different places. Mrs. Hatfield, almost in- sane from fear and semiconscious from the beating was able to give only a disconnected account of the attack. She died on September 9. Two weeks before Mrs. Hatfield’s | | be delayed, this pressure is certain ‘to be death, the city was horrified by news of another crime, Mrs. Lydia | judge advocate general, J. A.

TRIAL VERDICT ON WAY TO PRESIDENT’S DESK Record Held to Be Without Error and Sentence Declared Valid. By JOHN EDWIN NEVIN. The entire controversy over n@- tional air defense, dormant since before Christmas, broke out afresh yesterday. It became apparent that within the next few days this sub- ject will break party lines wide open on Capitol Hill. The Mitchell verdict, held up since its delivery, by the board of review of the judge advocate gen- eral’s office, has been passed on by Nnials, is about ready to be started |for President Coolidge’s desk. Al- though the War Department insist- ed that the record is being ex- amined, it is known that the three officers composing the board have agreed that the trial record is with- out substantial error and that the sentence is within the law. Developments in Situation. Developments yesterday in the air situation were: First—-The agreement by the board of review that forfeiture of all pay and allowances coupled with a suspension sentence does not vio- late the constitutional rights of Col. Mitchell. + Second—Denial that the board report has as yet been sent to the Maj. Gen. despite very circumstan- tial reports that the decision actu- ally had received the latter’s ap- | proval. Third. An intimation’ that, re- gardless of what recommendations are made by the War Department, President Coolidge personally will consider the charge that the entire trial was invalidated by the public utterances of members of the court during the trial. Fourth. Col. Mitchell, appearing as a spectator at a hearing of the military affairs committee, ex- pressed a willingness to testify as to air conditions, regardless of fhe sentence of the court-martial. Fifth. The War Department made public an outline of the congres- sional action it believes needed to meet the recommendations of the Morrow board. They follow exactly the lines of that report. Sixth. The House military affairs committee let it be known that it personally will investigate all of the disputed points emphasized by the Mitchell court-martial, the Mor- row board hearing and its own hearings last year. Seventh. A rumor that Col. Mitch- ell probably will resign from the army when the final decision of President Coolidge on his court- martial is announced. Meanwhile pressure to have the President materially modify the sentence of the court continues. There is a whole lot of politics behind this and, now that it is cer- tain that final action will not long The increased. attitude of Baumgartner, 24, a mother of tw “| the President is unknown. It is, small children, was found murder- ed betwen two houses in the same neighborhood, August 21. Circumstances seemed to indicate that Mrs. Baumgartner’s assailant had been’ the same man as the one who had caused Mrs. Hatfield’s death. Mrs. Baumgartner had _ . been beaten on the head. Her body was torn and scratched and ‘her head almost severed from her body by knife cuts. Four Other Clubbings. Mrs. Frank Hall, 50, was struck down on October 20 from behind a trec as she walked in the street less than a block from her home. The clubber struck only twice. Her physician said today it would be several months before she would be able to leave her bed. Then Toledo was roused over night by the report that Miss Wilma Hoadley had been attacked as she passed the corner at Monroe and Twentieth streets, one of the most prominent corners in the city. Two terrific .blows crushed upon Miss Hoadley’s head and she went down with a splintered skull. Miss Hoad- ley screamed and the clubber dis- appeared. Miss Hoadley was taken home and was for a long time under a physician’s care. The city was swept in a wave of hysterical fear two days later when the clubber reappeared and struck down Miss Frieda Draheim, 359, and followed 24 bours later with an attack on Mrs. Cora Bdach- elor. Since late in November the city has subsided from fears of the club- ber, but they were brought to the fore again today with the death of Thomas Kelly, Miss husband, was but former immediately released. questioning.

Col. Mitchell appeared. at the Capitol yesterday in civilian attire. He was an interested spectator be- fore the House military affairs committee which took up considera- tion of all of the various proposed measures providing for greater ef- fiiciency, economy and _ coordina- tion between the army and the Some of the members sug- gested that the colonel be called as a witness. There was doubt ex- pressed, however, as to whether his present status would allow this. Representative Wainwright, of New York, former Assistant Secretary of War, said that until the court mar- tial verdict had been passed on by ithe President there was nothing to prevent Col. Mitchell testifying, but the committee decided that,eshould it finally call him, it will first ask permission from the War Depart- ment. Col. Mitchell had no doubts as to his qualifications,’ however. i would just as soon appear volun- tarily if the committee desires to hear me,’’ he said... ‘‘My status is no different today than it has been.”’ { Hill Assails Separate Services. The committee heard from Rep- resentative Hill on his proposal to coordinate the army and navy air services so far as flying fields are concerned. He assailed the lack of coordination between the two sery- ices and insisted that it was ‘‘utter folly’’ to maintain separate fields for each.

Meanwhile, marking time. Congress is only When the Mitchell ‘|verdict is promulgated officially an outburst which will rival in bitter- ness any criticism to date can be expected. There is more actual an- ger in the House over the Weeks letter to President Coolidge, setting forth his reasons for not reappeint- ing Col. Mitchell to his post as as- sistant chief of the air service, than has been in evidence on any one subject in years. The reason, of course, is that the former Secretary flatly declared that it° was Col. Mitchell’s evidence before congres- sional committeés which led him to the conclusion that he was not tem- peramentally or otherwise fitted to ‘continue in his high office. Secretary Weeks accused Col. Mitchell of giving false testimony about his fellow officers in both the army and navy while before the committees of Congress. This Mitchell has strenuously denied. The former assistant chief insisted that his story of the results of the vari- ous bombing tests was absolutely ac- curate. He also has insisted that, in so far as he made ~ specific charges of failure to improve the air service, these also’ were true and proven both before the commit- tees of Congress and at his own court-martial. Broken Promise Alleged. Many members of both the Senate and the House believe this is so. But regardless of whether the facts are as stated, there can be no doubt that both the Navy and War De- partments went on record in prom- ising that no officer would be dis- criminated against in any way for any testimony he might give to the congressional committees. There can be no denying this fact. “The records | of the committees contain exactly | this statement in so many words, | and the, fact that the Weeks letter | proves that Mitchell was demoted | and banished because he told the | congressional committee the same. facts that he previously had pro- claimed a score of times indicates that he at least was a victim of a broken promise. The military affairs committee of the House asked for a copy of the letter and now has it. Representa- tive Gerrett, of Tennessee, the minority leader, has introduced a resolution calling upon the judici- | ary committee of the House to in-!| it and to report to the} vestigate House whether action should be taken under it and whether addi- tional legislation is necessary to protect witnesses who may be called on by congressional committees from being discriminated against for telling their stories on the wit- ness stand. iduties as the ‘direct. | porary grade higher manent rank. DMS ORDERS AIR SECTIONS CREATED IN ARMY BRANCHES Aviation Officers to Serve With the General Staff As Advisers. PLAN IS RECOMMENDED BY PRESIDERT'S BOARD New Deoteation Is Planned; System Will Utilize Enlist- ed Men as Pilots. —— en . Creation of an air section in each branch of the army general staff has been ordered by Secretary of War Davis in accordance with the recommendation of the President’s air board. Under the plan, details of which ‘the adjutant general of the army ‘has been instructed to work out, several air service officers will be assigned to each staff branch and will act as the advisers of the branch on air matters. The offic- ers will not be on the general staff but will be assigned to duty with the general staff. This information followed close- | ly behind the disclosure yesterday 'of legislation which the War De- |partment has submitted to Congress following out other recommenda- tions. of the President’s board. The legislation will effect the following things: 1. Change the name of the air service to air corps. 2. Create the office of Second As- |Sistant Secretary of War at a salary 500 a year to perform such Secretary of War may of $7, Makes 8 New Generals. Create three assistants to the chief of the air corps with the rank of brigadier general. 4.

Mitchell Plans Hunting Trip. The question of Col. Mitchell’s future is a subject of general con- versation. He let it be known sometime ago that he was anxious to make a hunting trip to Africa to take moving pictures of wild animals from aeroplanes and to get a collection of specimens of big game. It has been suggested that in case the verdict of the court- martial shall be approved by the President, that Col. Mitchell will tender his resignation. Then it will be up to Mr. Coolidge to decide. whether it will be accepted. If he directs that Col. Mitchell be permitted to resign a tempest | will be stirred up in the ranks of | the general staff, which is under- | stood to be a unit in believing that | the officer ought to be held amena¢ ble to discipline until the time of. If the), his sentence has expired. President resignation then there will come an outburst from Congress and from the country that will have its effect on the political sit- | uation. Meanwhile, Col. counsel, Representative Illinois, refuse to talk. Mitchell and his | Reid, to wait before discussing their future action until the President has spoken.

With regard to the establishment of the air section of each staff branch the War Department has concluded that it would not be ad- visable to break down the army re- ‘quirements to assign air service of- ficers to duty on the staff as recom. mended lay the Morrow board. For duty on the staff rather than with it, officers must have qualifications air officers have. This is because the air service is a young branch and gradually it will be over- me.

Robert E. Lee, Confeder- ate military leader, was made yes- terday at the Capitol on the one hundred and thirteenth anniversary of his birth. Eleanor Chambers, president of the Mildred Lee chapter, Children of the Confederacy, placed a wreath of red and white carnations, colors of the Confederacy, on his statue in the Capitol, A number of children, members of the organization, some carrying the Stars and Stripes, and one carrying the Stars and Bars of | the Confederacy, presented a pic- turesque spectacle. Participating in the exercises, was Mrs. Robert. E. Lee, widow of the eldest grandson of Gen. Lee. The ceremony at the Capitol was in charge of two veterans, one Rep- resentative Steadman, of North Carolina, who served as a major in the Southern army, and who has the added distinction of being the only Confederate veteran in Con- gress; the other was John N. Fol- lin, of Warrenton, Va., who wore the gray uniform of a colonel of the Confederacy. | Representative Steadman referred | to his former leader as a leader who | still holds command of ‘the South- | erners who fought with him for the ideals of the Confederacy. Mr. Steadman stated that the occasion called for no speech, but for a mo- | ment of reverence for the esteem in which the name of Lee was held. A memorial] service for Gen. Lce, | attended by members of the Con- federate Memorial Association of | Washington, was held last night in | the Mount.

Attention was also called to the fact that the commission of fine arts had heretofore recommended to the District commissioners the use of pennants in connection with the installation of the improved lighting system of the city. This is the custom that prevails in Paris.”’ Under the legion plan, each busi- ness house in front of which a staff was placed would care for the fiag and display it on appropriate occa- sions.

Wednesday, January 20, 1926. A SET OF FACTS. Apropos of the debate in the Senate on Monday with regard to the advisory opinion of the international court to the council of the league of nations, touch- ing the Mosul dispute between Great Britain and Turkey, reference was made to the origin of Britain’s claim to Mosul. It appears that Mosul was given secretly to Great Britain on February 15, 1919, by Premier Clemenceau, of France. - The two powers had secretly arranged in 1916 for the division of Turkish territory between them. Great Britain was to get Mesopotamia and France was to get Syria-and a piece of territory including Mosul. The two powers quarreled over the spoils, and secret correspondence was earried on between them long after the United States entered the war. President Wilson was kept in igno- rance of the arrangements. He first learned of them when he reached Paris and attended a meeting of the “Big Four,” held without the knowledge of the other heads of states attending the peace conference. This meeting was held on March 20, 1919.- Minutes were kept of this secret meeting, and they are published in the third volume of Ray Stannard Baker’s ‘Woodrow Wilson and World Settlement.” Among those pres- ent at the meeting were President Wil- son, Mr. Lloyd George A. J. Balfour, M. Clemenceau, M. Pichon and Signor Orlando. The minutes read in part as follows : Syria and Turkey—M. Clemenceau sug- gested that M. Pichon should open the discussion. M. Pichon began by explain- ing that the origin of this question was the agreement of May, 1916 (Sykes- Picot), concluded between Great Britain and France regard to Mesopotamia, Syria and the adjoining regions. This agreement had two objects. First, to de- tach the Arabs from the Turks; second, to decide the claims of Great Britain and France. (M. Pichon proceeded to out- line on map the Turkish territories which Great Britain Irance had agreed to give to each other.) As the difiiculties between the two governments continued, and as the French particularly did not wish point where ultimate agreement would compromised, the president of the (Clemenceau), on his visit to London in December, 1918, had asked Mr. Lloyd George to confirm the agreement between the two countries. Mr. Lloyd George had replied that he saw no difficulty aboug the rights of France in Syria and Cilicia, but he made demands for certain places which he thought should be included in the British zone, and which, under the 1916 agreement, were in the French zone of influence, namely, Mosul. He also asked for Pales- tine. M. Clemenceau had, on his return to Paris, been desirous that this sugges- tion should be examined in the most fay- orable spirit. In consequence, he had ordered a scheme of agreement to be pre- pared, with the inclusion of Mosul in the BRtish zone of influence, and this had bqqn handed to the British government ~~“ 15th of February, 1919. Mr. Lloyd George said that . . . in re- gd to Mosul, he wished to acknowledge thf cordial spirit in which M. Pichon had mot our desires. in a and government them to reach a be council When the Treaty of Versailles was made, it was provided in‘ the first part (covenant of the league of nations) that mandates should be given, and the league proceeded to award mandates according to the secret arrangement above recited. President Wilson was obliged to agree to the proceeding in order to gain accept- ance of his league of nations plan. Turkey refused to accept the arrange- ment, and in 1922 made fresh war and threw the Greeks out of Smyrna. Peace negotiations were held at Lausanne, and Turkey and Britain disagreed over Mosul. It was finally stipulated’ in the treaty that if the two governments could not reach an agreement on Mosul, the question should be referred to the council of the league of nations. Lord Curzon assured Turkey that she would have a temporary place in the league council, with the power of veto, so that nothing could be decided without her consent. With that understanding: Turkey signed the treaty. : The two government failed to reach an agreement as to Mosul. The ques- | tion was thereupon referred to the council, which claimed the right to decide assurance to Turkey. Turkey protested. The league council then referred to the “world court” the question of its power to fix the boundary. On the court was a British judge but no Turkish judge. The court advised that the council had power to fix the boundary, without regard to Turkey’s vote. Thereupon the council awarded Mosul to Great Britain. | The court created by the league of na- tions did the work for which it was created. Mosul, belonging to Turkey, was taken without its consent and given to Great Britain, on the advice of the league court. This is the court which, under the imposing name of “Permanent Court of International Justice,’ Ameri- cans are asked to support. ie From saving souls at $5 a week to trimming soles at $50 is stepping some. Rev. George B. Morse has grown tired of his commission as sky pilot in the Blair Street Community church in Btockton, Mass., which congregation expected him to live on his faith and $5 a week. Unfortunately the reverend gentleman has a wife and four children to support, and even with beans at three cans for a quarter and an ingrowing attack of New England thrift it is difficult to house, feed and clothe six per- sons for .72 cents per diem. The reverend George has therefore ‘‘accepted a position’’ in a shoe factory where he is able to earn $50 weekly at trimming the soles of the shoe which can be worn by those liberal souls of Brockton, who have evidently heard that sal- vation is free and want it only at that price. . DANGEROUS PUBLIC BUILDINGS. If anything were needed to convince Con- gress of the imperative need of additional pub- lic buildings in Washington to house the army of.government employes and to provide for the security of valuable public documents, it is found in the information: given to the House appropriations committee. This information discloses that no less than eleven temporary buildings now occupied by departmeents of the government and housing hundreds of Federal employes are in such a dangerous condition because of the inroads of decay that there is imminent danger of their collapse. These buildings which form a part of the group of temporary structures in Potomac park and on the Mall, erected during the war, are in such rotten condition, it is reported, that it has been found necessary to use jacks under the lower floors to prevent them from sagging and falling in. In many instances huge files and heavy furniture have had to be shifted from place to place to relieve the strain on certain portions until repairs can be made. The office of public buildings and grounds has asked for a deficiency appropriation of $140,- 000 to make repairs to buildings used by the government, but this amount will not allow for any improvements. It will cover only the replacement of rotten wooden-posts by con- crete ones. Such a condition is dreadful to contemplate. These buildings should not be repaired. They should be torn down. Human lives are at stake. In June, 1893, the Ford’s Theater building, occupied byeemployes of the record and pension division of the War Department, collapsed with a loss of many lives. The dis- aster was caused by the failure of temporary supports placed under the lower floor by the contractors while they were making repairs to the building. Danger always lurks in jacking up a build- ing. Undoubtedly every precaution has been taken by the officers in charge of the repair of these decayed buildings to guard against col- lapse, but such calamities occur in spite of seemingly adequate precautions. The lives of thousands of employes are in jeopardy at this moment. Who will pay the forfeit if these lives are lost? How will Con- gress exculpate itself if wholesale death occurs through its negligence and delay? Will it pay $5,000 for each life sacrificed, as it did in the case of the Ford theater disaster? — ee _ mazoo, Mich., chosen by his fellow students of Columbia university as the handsomest senior in college. ‘‘And what a razz I'll get,’’ he wailed. Some folk are never satisfied. Helen Wills, American tennis champion, would rather have a painting in the Louvre than be the foremost racket wielder of the world. Hu- man nature is always longing for something else, and anybody’s job is better than your own. ,™ ~~ WHO IS RESPONSIBLE? Three weeks ago last Saturday afternoon a gang of hijackers descended upon the govern- ment bonded warehouse of the MeGinnis dis- tillery in the isolated hamlet of Carrolton, Md. It was late, just about dusk, and the Treasury guards, who should have been on the job, were all away. There are supposed to be five of these men, each armed with auto- matics and shotguns, to protect the property which the United States authorities hold, but do not own. On the top of the building is a strongly built watch tower, into the four sides of which are cut slots big enough to afford an outlook and through which the sentinel might easily ‘‘pot’’ any marauder—or a score of them. In that tower are electric switches controlling every light in and around the building. But the watchman was off—it was Saturday after- roon, and the Federal guards were away on private business or pleasure. The hijackers evidently knew that the coast was clear. They descended in force and easily overpowered the two outside watchmen, em- ployed by the distillery company. They trussed these boys.up with telephone wire and laid in wait for the returning Federal employes. They got them as they arrived. Confederates brought up a score of automobiles and for several] hours the gang worked at removing the liquor stored on the racks, They got away with 63 barrels, but daylight approached before they could load up the remaining ten barrels, which they had removed to the outside of the building. On Tuesday last seven special agents of the Treasury Department went to Carrollton to “check up.’ The department is confident that this was ‘‘an inside job,”’ and, of course, in- sists that it is in-no way responsible to the the dispute, regardless of Lord Curzon’s “What a life!’ moans Allen Maybee, of Kala- , + ae Ct eo % 5 a ee ye a ae ‘ fe ee) Pe ce ig MN yak oe % » i. early, CURE Re.

If those owners are not sued for the unpaid tax due the government they may consider themselves in luck. | A private individual, or a soulless corpora- tion, being the custodian of property held in trust for others, would be required to pay the value of the goods stolen while in the custody of the holder. But under the peculiar baand of public morality which is the outgrowth of the eighteenth amendment it is apparently legal and ethical to take charge of the property of a citizen and to mulct him in damages if Uncle Sam fails to guard that which is in his custody. Who said “pearls are tears?’’ Here is proof of the fallacy of that popular superstition. A negro workingman: finds a string of pearls worth $100,000 and Stops his little girl from crying. Then he returns them to their owner, and she stops crying. Another fancy exploded. ,% ww SENATOR HARRISON ON THE TARIFF. In his address in the Senate Monday, against the policy of protection, Senator Pat Harrison quoted and questioned The Wash- ington Post of January 10, in which it says editorially: Practically nothing the farmer buys, except clothing, has an import duty. This is literally true, since the farmer buys domestic or American-made commodities, on which there are no import duties. And even in the matter of clothing, unless he buys im- ported commodities, there is no import duty. In the long list of commodities_recited by the senator from stump pullers to safety pins, the farmer pays not a cent import duty unless he insists upon purchasing imported articles. Senator Harrison wishes ‘to create the im- pression that the priees of these domestic com- modities are increased to the farmer in an amount equal to the tariff on foreign articles. As a matter of fact the farmer pays less for his clothing, fuel, metals and building mate- rials, chemicals and household furnishing now under a protective tariff than he did between 1917 and 1920 under a low or revenue tariff which Senator Harrison voted for in 1913. In 1919 and 1920, under the senator’s low tariff, the farmer’s clothing cost from 54 to 80 per cent more than it does today, under a protec- tive tariff. The quoted statement from The Washington Post will bear close analysis and examination. It is good authority. a wr ' What’s the matter with the compilers of the Congressional Directory? It was bad enough to omit the name of Prohibition Commissioner Haynes. Now it is discovered they have left out that of Traffic Director Maurice O. Eld- ridge. Of course, Mr. Eldridge’s name did not appear in the-vdirectory of the Sixty-eighth Congress, but that does not matter. The per- sons who make up the official roster of those who have relations with Congress ought to be more careful. Everybody in the government service can not be an Abou Ben Adhem, but surely none who has any claim for the distinc- tion should be denied the privilege of having | his name among those present. TOO TECHNICAL. There are times when a State officer might be justified in ignoring the order of a court without subjecting himself to punishment or even censure. ‘The opportunity presented it- self to the State mining inspector of Oklahoma recently, when 93 miners were entombed in a mine at Wilburton, in that State, but the in- spector seems to have lacked the necessary in- telligence to act. Last September the Federal judge for the district issued an order restraining and for- bidding men who refused to work under the 1917 agreement to enter upon mine property. When the disaster occurred in the Degnan-Mc- Connell mine the only men who were available for rescue work with a knowledge cof under- ground conditions were some of those who came under the ban of the court. One of these striking miners begged the inspector to permit him to enter the mine, with other strikers who are familiar with the workings, for the purpose of attempting ‘to rescue the entombed men. But the inspector rejected the offer, and de- clared that he had a group of other men upon whom he would call if he thought they could be of assistance. The striking volunteers wanted to attempt the rescue and find out for themselves whether ‘‘they could be of assis- tance.’’ It would appear to the outsider that the mining inspector of Oklahoma is altogether too technical in his interpretation of the court order. When human life is at stake even a State official should be willing to take a chance, even if in so doing he violates a court order designed to protect property rather than life. : | Among the things that are getting shorter are the ‘coal supply, daughter’s frocks and dad’s patience. —_— — a vw As one continues to buy spuds it becomes more and more difficult to feel sorry for the poor farmer. { By Will Rogers The Worst Joke [I heard today was told to me by Wm.

EDWARD CASSIDY, Washington, Jan. 16. An Eaceltlent Suggestion. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: I notice that a change in the timing of the Sixteenth street traffic lights is under consideration with the ob- ject of giving north and southbound traffic more running time. I wonder if the alternate light system has even been considered here. It has supplanted the old sys- tem in several cities with remark- able guccess. Instead of all the lights along the thoroughfare show- ing red or green at the same time, they are arranged to alternate, when the light at the first intersec- tion shows red the next shows green, and so on along the entire street. Let us imagine We are in a car driving on Sixteenth street wifh this system in effect. Weturn from Il street into Sixteenth and stop for a red light at I street with the light at K street showing green. When the green light comes on at I street the K street light goes red, so if we speed through the block we will have to stop and wait for the light at K street, but if we take it easy und drive at a moderate speed by the time we reach the K street in- tersection the light will have turned to,green and we can keep on with- tastop.

A driver pulling out from the curb, an unthinking pedestrian or a car wrongly entering from a side street might cause a serious accident at the present rate of driving. Then, too, the cars tend to collect at the intersections, causing a bad traffic condition. With alternate signals, speeding would be unnecessary, traffic more evenly distributed and if the expe- rience of other. places hold good here the time required to drive from H street to Columbia road ma- terially reduced.

SOCIAL WELFARE BILL IS OPPOSED BY GERRY Senator Proposes Director for Charity and One for Penal Affairs. Hang-over opposition from the last Congress to the bill to estab- lish a board of public welfare here developed in concrete form yester- day just at a time when the measure was thought to be sliding safely along. Senator Gerry, of Rhode Island, opponent of the measure in the last session, made known that he was stiil opposed to it and introduced a bill by which public welfare would be administered by one director and prisons and correctional institutions would be administered by another. The District commissioners would have supervision over the two of them, the commissioners being con- stituted as a supervising board of public welfare. In addition, Senator Gerry’s measure would set up a parole board which he thinks is ‘‘very much needed in the District to ap- ply the best ideas of penology.”’ ISOCIETY CONTINUED FROM SEVENTH PAGE. guest of Mrs. James A.

WEEKDAY TEACHING OF RELIGION FAVORED Churches Should Instruct, Not Schools, Northeast Women Told. Lack of unity and sectarianism among religious forces make it ab- solutely impossible to teach religion in the public schools, M. E. Sadler, Lrefional director of religious edu- cation of the Christian churches, declared last night at a meeting of the Women’s Missionary society held in the Ninth Street Christian / church, Ninth and D streets north- east. Mr. Sadler, “Importance of the Church School,”’ declared the best means of educat- ing children in religion was to establish in their parent church a school where Bible studies and re- lated subjects would be taught, not only on Sunday, but on week days. Preceding the business meeting, at which Mr. Sadler spoke, a din- ner-was held in the church for the young people of the congregation. More than 200 representatives of Christian churches attended. who spoke on the}, Louise Glaum, ‘Vamp,’ Wed to Theater Man New York, Jan. 19 (By A.

VALENTINO SAILS HOME , AS WIFE GETS ONORCE a Court Decides she Is American, Not Italian, and Issues Decree. eee REVIATHAN BRINGS STARS Southampton, England, (By A. P.).—Rudolpl’ ‘who sailed for .the United States today on the Leviathan, said he would go immediately to Hollywood and try to forget his domestic troubles in work. A decree of di- vorce Was granted to his wife in Paris today. The Leviathan’s passenger list in- cluded an unusually large number of theatrical and film stars. Raquel Meller, Spanish vaudeville and mo- tion picture star, at the last minute changed her decision not to sail on the American liner. Mlle, Meller had declared she would not board thg Leviathan because the company would not give her eight dogs de luxe cabin accommodation. Sophie Tucker, headliner in Lqn- don music halls for the last two years, sailed to visit her mother, who is ill at Hartford, Conn. Miss Tucker’s farewell at London was the occasion for the Irving Berlins breaking their seclusion. Other passengers included the Duchess of Norfolk and her daugh- ter, Lady Rachel Howard, the Mar- quis and .Marchioness of Huntley and Lord and Lady Camoys. Paris, Jan. 19 (By A. P.).—Wini- fred Hudnut (‘‘Natacha Rambova’’) received a divorce from Rudolph Valentino, motion picture actor, to- day on grounds of abandonment. The wife was held to have retained her American citizenship, because she married Valentino on March 15, 1925, a year after the passage of the Cable act preserving the citizenship of American women marrying foreigners. This decision enabled the court to award her the decree. Miss Rambova filed action on De- cember 17 and at the hearing on January 12 it was stated that the court believed the suit well founded. The only remaining question was that of determining her:citizenship, as the laws of Italy do not recognize divorce. Valentino is an Italian citizen.

CITY COMMISSIONERS CRITICIZE ELDRIDGE CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE. fic in the parks and public grounds not policed by the District. The commissioners took direct issue with Director Eldridge in his recent eriticism of the police for alleged failure to cooperate in en- forcement of traffic regulations, saying: “The standard of cooperation and agsistance rendered by the po- lice department in the past has been of a high order and, with proper cooperation by all depart- ments interested, it will maintain that same high standard.” Higher Fees Disapproved. The commissioners also refused to concur in the proposals contained in the bill to increase the fee for operators’ permits from $1 to $5; to permit a higher rate of speed than 22 miles an hour on boulevards ex- cept in outlying districts; to give a victim of an automobile accident a lien on the car of the offender; to allow an operator whose permit has been revoked to appeal to the courts. The proposal to give jurisdiction in all traffic cases to the police court was approved, but the number of additional assistants to the cor- poration counsel asked to prosecute the cases was reduced from three to two. The report of the commission- ers declared: “It was to be expected that a cer- tain amount of confusion and dis- satisfaction should arise with the promulgation of the new regula- tions. “In the opinion of the commis- sioners, the transfer of 75 motor- cycle privates and 25 foot patrol- men to the traffic bureau should not be made for the reason that re- lease of these men from precinct duty would relieve precinct com- manders of all responsibility in en- ‘forcement of traffic laws. “This provision (giving the di- rector control of the police traffic bureau) would also have the effect of setting up a distinct police forc@é ‘in the District of Columbia with of course, from the stand-} point of efficient administration, the commissioners do not agree. “All traffic conditions. requiring the attention of headquarters, -of the traffic bureau, or the director of traffic, are now reported by pre- cinct commanders to the major and superintendent of police, and are by him referred to the proper offi- ‘'cials, and it is inconceivable, from an administrative standpoint, that a precinct commander should be re- ‘quired to report such a condition directly to another subordinate offi- cial, who, in turn, would -convey the information ta the director of ‘traffic.’ e ‘Queen of Sweden Sent To Italy by Doctors Stockholm, Jan. 19 (By Aég P.). ‘Queen Victoria of Sweden, accom- - | panied by her younger son, Prince 'William, has started on a winter “ to Italy, taken on the advice physicians.

FORMER FIFI WIDENER DIVORCES GARTER LEIDY |: Friends Learn of Decree by Pennsylvania Court, but Grounds Are Not Told. SHE ELOPED WHEN 17 Norristown, Pa., Jan. 19 (By A. P.).—The romance which included an early morning elopement six years ago of Josephine Pancoast Widener Leidy, came to an end to- day when it was learned that the Montgomery county court had granted her a divorce from her hus- band, Carter Randolph Leidy. Daughter of Joseph E. Widener, multimillionaire, of Philadelphia, and known to her friends as ‘“‘Fifi,’’ Mrs, Leidy brought action against her husband last October. No intimation of the grounds for the suit was made public and neither the principals in the youth- basi ‘romance that startled wntiety of Philadelphia, New York and New- port nor their parents would dis- cuss the case. The couple has one child. a 2-year-old daughter. No mention. was-made as to which par- ent would have the custody of the little girl. On a cold January morning in 1920, young Leidy, then 20, son of Dr. and Mrs. Joseph Leidy, socially prominent Philadelphians, and a freshman at the University of Pennsylvania, drove to the Widener home and waited until ‘‘Fifi,’’ who was 17, secretly joined him. They drove to Philadelphia and there boarded a train. for Tenn. They were married in that city Leidy left college and obtained a job at the plant of the American Car & Foundry Co. at Berwick, Pa., at a reported salary of $60 a month. The smallness of his pay envelope did not interfere with their social activities. At the end of two years Leidy was transferred to the New York office of the com- pany and given a “white collar job.’’ In New York they lived in a Park avenue apartment and took their place in society. ‘Knoxville, |: 9 KILLED BY TRAINS AT TWO CROSSINGS 5 in One Family.

BETTER THAN CALOMEL Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets are a Harmless Substitute Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets—the substitute for calomel—are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver is almost instantaneous. These little olive-colored tablets are the result of Dr. Edwards’ de- termination not to treat liver and bowel complains with calomel. The pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does, but have uo bad after effects. They don’t in- jure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids. It is best not to take calo- mel. Let Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tab- lets take its place. Headaches, ‘‘dullness” and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets when yeu feel ‘‘logy’’ and ‘‘heavy.”’ They “‘clear’’ clouded brain and “perk up” the spirits. 15c and 30c. foto —_—— we Busy Corner Pa.

P.).— Russian participation in the inter- national radio broadcasting tests next week will be welcomed, it was said today by the rddio week com- mittee. Arrangements will be made to have stations in South America, Canada and the United States try to reach Leningrad and Moscow. At least eight stations on the North American continent should be audible in Russia unless a sunrise intervenes, L. A. Nixon, executive secretary of the committee, said. Distance broadcasting; he asserted, to be successful, must be done in darkness, and the location of Rus- sia makes this difficult. The com- mittee believes, however, that if Russian listeners tune in between 11 and 12 p. m., New York time, from Sunday to Thursday during Aadio week they will hear one or more of the powerful North Amer- ican stations. The committee will also ask stations in Peru and other South American countries to try to reach Leningrad and Moscow. MOVEMENTS OF STEAMSHIPS New York, Jan. 19. ARRIVED TUESDAY.

HOUSE COMMITEE ~ FIVORS, MEASURES T FORGE MERGER Zihiman Declares Traction Companies Have Made No Serious Move. —e & UTILITIES COMMISSION * HELD TO BE INADEQUATE Blanton and Reid Engage in Frequent Tilts at Hearing; Bell Testifies. Punitive measures to force the local traction companies to effect a merger, the way for which was paved by the last Congress, gained strong favor among members of the House District committee yesterday following the second hearing by its subcommittee on the general trac- tion situation. Following the hearing, Chairman Zihiman said he was convinced that no serious effort had been made toward grouping the _ properties with consequent reduction of oper- ating expenses, and little action to that end was likely to be taken unless the companies were prodded. A poll of the full committee dis- closed that were the bills abolish- ing the public utilities commission the only matter before it, the ma- jority of committee mempers would seriously consider a favor- able report to the end with a view, as olf; member expressed it, of “throwing the traction companies back on their 5-cent fare charter provision, and making them scuf- fle for themselves.’’ Pablic Declared Safferer. The first two hearings have de- veloped, it was declared, that the commission and the courts to- gether have served as a protection for the traction companies alone, with the public having little voice in the matter. . As explained by Engineer Com: missioner J. Franklin Bell, who again appeared before the commit- tee yesterday, the commission has fixed valuations on the companies’ properties, and they have been boosted by the'courts. The com- mission, carrying out its obliga- tion, has had to fix rates tending to insure a fair return on these valuations. But the commission has been unable to go into the thousand and one things that bear on the companies’ operating expenses. Col. Bell disagrees with members of the committee that charges of watered stock and manipulations have any influence in the valuations. Repre- sentatives Frank Reid, Illinois, and Blanton, Texas, have made known that they intend to show that they do. In connection with the commis- sion’s purported inadequacy to han- dle its affairs, their bill to reor- ganize it, providing for the addition of an engineer and lawyer to the present body, together with the em- ployment of a people’s counsel, was TELLING TOMMY | ¢ : : 5 , TY ty ie ‘ eS MAG RIT EE wie CT a ie Wa ON hs hair \ ah eat re Miss a Si iN les it aaa i hk bl if STB TS | Y Bey ee "a : ait b Lhe SB oni in M7 - See ge Be ; y's eR fh as . *) . & | ‘THE WASHINGTON POST: WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 20, 1926. | eee ‘ " THD teu me tl , | ABOUT SPICES # DADDY | FOR CENTURIES | (SPICES WERE.

As the draft finally came from the commissioners it ran counter to the. opinion of the citizens’ ad- visory council, and is understood not to. have represented the view of Engineer Commissioner’ Bell. Col. Bell was anxious that the police commissioner remain on the re- vamped body, but is understood to doubted the wisdom of retaining the other two commissioners. The council, when it passed on the mat- ter, wanted a divorcement from the commissioners altogether. Mem- bers of the District committee have indicated that they did not see why the commissioners wanted to fe- main in charge of utility matters, when they admit their other duties are too burdensome now for them to give proper attention to utilities. Yesterday’s committee hearing, at which Col. Bell was the only witness, developed little but the committee’s impatience to get at the bottom of the subject. It was marked by frequent tilts between Representative Blanton, on the one hand, and Representatives Reid and Bowman on the other. At one stage Mr. Blanton told Mr. Reid that he had been against ‘those brigadier generals,”’ refer- ring to the Mitchell trial at which Mr. Reid defended Col. Mitchell, but now he was inclined to “sympathize with them.” . “When I’m with you, you are for me; when I’m against you you’re against me, eh?” retorted Mr. Reid.

INTRODUCES JAZZ INTO Hild oYMPHONY Guest Conductor of Philadel- phia Orchestra’ Gives Brilliant Concert. OWN COMPOSITIONS GiVEN That the spirit of American jazz has influence even in the sacred classic precincts of modern Italian music was amply demonstrated in the all-Respighi program given by the Philadelphia orchestra at the auditorium yesterday with Otto Respighi, the famous Italian com- poser, as guest conductor of the concert. The concert was under the local management of the T. Arthur Smith Concert bureau. The opening movement of Signor Respighi’s new symphonic poem, “Pini di Roma’’ (Pines of Rome), which was performed here for the first time, has many elements of jazz motif in its make-up. Its cen- tral theme was the Italian equiva- lent of a game of “Ring Around Rosy” in the pines of the Villa Bor- ghese with merry children at play; their shouts, shrill cries and the twitter of swallows were done a la Gershwin and to Paul Whiteman’s taste. The modern note was struck again in the third movement, when lacking a nightingale similar to that immortalized by Keats, the composer boldly substituted his di- vine song as caught on a phono- graph record, probably the first time a phonograph ever has been used in symphonic music. The final movement of Pini di Roma is a stirring march with a magnificent finale in which Signor Respighi rose to his full height as aconductor. By every wile known to the art of conducting, he drew from the matchless musicians of the Philadelphia orchestra thunderous melodies and sparkling climaxes. Altogether the concert justified the advance prediction that Wash- ington would find this gifted Italian a ‘‘master of symphonic style.”’ E. E. P. Prohibition Assailed By Jersey Governor Trenton, N. J., Jan. 19 (By A. P.).—Gov. A. Harry Moore gave restoration of States’ rights as his watchword today in an inaugural address in which he urged the New -Jersey legislature to memorialize Congress to modify the Volstead act, asked repeal of the State pro- hibition act and suggested the de- struction of the ‘‘anthracite monop- oly”’ by creation of a tristate com- mission, operating competing mines and a coal-carrying railroad. The third consecutive Democratic governor of an otherwise Repub- lican State declared the eighteenth amendment ‘‘the crowning act in a series of recent developments, all tending to destroy State rights.’’ The Antisaloon league he attacked as ‘‘a body inimical to popular gov- ernment.’”’ Joint Funeral Rites Held for Hartshorns Joint funeral services for Capt. Elden J. Hartshorn and Mrs. Eliza Bennett Hartshorn, who died within | 24 hours of each other at Kensing- ton, Md., were held in the Warner Memorial Presbyterian church yes- terday afternoon. Capt. Hartshorn was 83 years old and his wife was 63. Capt. Hartshorn died Satur- day and Mrs. Hartshorn died Sun- day of a stroke of paralysis. The Rev. Robert Atkinson, Kensington, assisted by the Rev. Dr. James Marshall, officiated. Full military honors were accorded to both, and inter- ment was cemetery. DAWSON RITES TOMORROW. Funeral services for Thomas Fitzhugh Dawson, 35 years old, deputy clerk of the United States Supreme Court, who died Monday of hart disease at Clarendon, Va., will be held tomorrow morning at 10 o’clock at Tabler’s undertaking establishment. He will be buried in the Arlington national cemetery. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Grace Dawson, and a son, Thomas. He was well known as a writer of verse, and served as an army field clerk during the world war. Pneumonia is now more deadly than Tuberculosis Government records show that deaths from pneumonia reach their peak during January, Feb- or March. Formerly, tub- erculosis, the“Captain of all the Men of Death,” as ic was called by John Bunyan, was the most fatal scourge of mankind.

For the instant she could not remember where she had placed that precious first week salary envelope. Now she had a mad desire to reach the Office before it would be locked up for the day. “fT am sure I left it in my desk drawer,’ she reassured herself, “just as I finished that last form jetter.”’ And yet ... as she reached the TARK terror pierced Moflie as | Wa OFFICE oF THE PRESIDENT. | } } | | entrance of the Galyor Building new | terror smote her, Suppose someone had found it, a janitor or a scrub | ‘woman, perhaps.

There was a single How could Here was a worse tragedy than the weeks of unemployment, as it seemed now in the sudden let down of her hopes and joy. She did not know a single soul in the big city to whom she could turn. Fiven her fellow boarders were strangers to her, for she had kept timidly to herself at Mrs. Cregg’s shabby genteel, stuffy old house. It would take three days to get a re- ply to a letter to her elderly aunt. And how could Aunt Ellen secure the money over the quiet. Sabbath if she dared even send a “‘C. O. D.’’ telegram. ' “Tt seems as though everyone in the city is blocking this hallway,” Mollie muttered helples: ., as she tried to force her way through the crowded doorway downstairs. And then something happened which seemed even more unfortu- nate than the loss of her salary en. velope. Her face was pallid as she rushed to the nearest elevator. She bumped headlong into Gladys Goodson, and attempting to dodge, jostled Anna Carey, just leaving the car. The girls gasped. Then they giggled slyly, insinuatingly. “Keeping an engagement, Miss Mayhew?” queried the dark-haired girl. J “IT just remembered something,”’ gasped Mollie, biting her lip. ‘‘Do you think the office is still open?”’ “T think it is,’’ and Gladys’ rouged lips twisted into a sarcastic smile. ‘‘The big boss is just keep- ing it open for some one perhaps it’s you?”’ ‘There'll be a welcome on the doormat,’ put in Anna Carey, witheringly. ‘“‘The afternoons are the best times in a _ broker’s en. 6 ag The flaunt struck her like a blow in the face. But Mollie, with that fighting ancestral strain, remained mute, as she sprang into the car, the doors sliding dangerously close to her slender body as she did so. Molly was so overwhelmed by the insinuation that she forgot to call her floor. Not until the return trip downward did she muster courage. As she walked slowly toward the door of the Mammoth Oil office she hesitated, downcast. It was a struggle between a girlish impulse to blindly rush away and face the sour-faced Mrs. Gregg with a cooked-up story—and the embar- rassing desire to slip into the office, despite the slurring innuendo of the other stenographers. How they could have misjudged her-——have said such a cruel thing, she could not understand. : Gently she opened the door, after a struggle against her timidity. The big outer office, which accommo- dated a dozen clerks and stenogra- phers, besides the bookkeepers’ desks, was now empty. She tip- toed to her desk, against the wall and furthest in the rear, as is the custom in seating the newcomer of an office force. Fronj within the private office marked ‘‘President,’’ she could hear the voice of Corliss, through the partly opened door. “That you, Joe? Well, I’m glad I caught you before you came down ——It’s delayed at least until tomor- row, damn it.’’ Mollie’s cheeks reddened, as eavesdropping under any circum- stances was not too pleasant. This bit of conversation promised more than the usual embarrassment, per- haps. She had drawn open her top desk drawer, to find the envelope bearing her name quite safe. She had slipped it into her handbag. Now she was ready for the escape. Again she was compelled to hear her employer’s words. “No, I'll have to hunt around up- town. I wouldn’t trust it to any publie stenographer I know in the financial district. And only two of the girls were in when I came back. I wouldn’t trust those janes while $ was looking at them. Wise babies, of the Follies type who’d shake me down for the rest of my life——Too bad I missed that green girl from the country who left sharp on the hour. She’d turn the trick during the afternoon and be none the wiser herself.’’ A spirit of resentment flared into Mollie’s mind; there was no mis- taking the tinge of ridicule in this Femark. So, she was “green” and “stupid.” She rose angrily from her desk, now. Her mortification-- most human to any one who hears an uncomplimentary comment given to another in confidence—caused : - two week’s bill al-| the next forty- | To judge. for the’) as she’ -| dropping. her carelessness. . Her next shaped the entire course of her life, although it seemed-at the instant a horrible catastrophe! She was brushing past a corner desk near the door, when her left hand barely brushed an inkwell, left carelessly out of place and near the edge. The provoking thing tipped. <A great blot of black fluid struck the edge of her tan skirt— her only skirt for business wear! She gave voice to a choked little squeal of dismay. The man inside heard it. He swung suspiciously about in his chair, dropping the telephone re- ceiver. From the doorway of his private office he -.scowled at her, furious with the thought that she had overheard a confidence. Then he perceived the cause of the un- controllable look’ of horror with which she was eyeing the accident. He smiled sympathetically, instead, and gave a soft little laugh. “Well, well!” he exclaimed, ad- vancing toward her. “That’s not s0 easy to laugh off, is it?’’ Mollie spun about, guiltily. . The colorful art of Gladys and Anna could never have achieved the pret- ty flush with which she suddenly gazed up into Corliss’ eyes. She felt like a housebreaker, as she re- membered the unwitting eaves- She must not let him know that she had overheard his remark about her. Gladys had been partly right in her earlier estimate; Mollie was clever. With instinctive feminine deftness, she had drawn the hand containing her purse and bag behind her, as she clasped the damaged skirt with the other. She gazed with a shade of added con- sternation at the hideous, heart- breaking blot of ink. “I’m so sorry to have disturbed you,” she said softly. “I was just coming to get my purse, which I forgot. And . and it’s lucky I have one to get. I'll have to buy a new skirt—thanks to my own clumsiness.” Many girls would have twisted the remark to another meaning, as the shrewd Corliss knew. This young person, admittedly from a tiny town, showed infinitely better breeding and generosity than most of the girls he had seen in offices. Gladys and any of the other typists and women clerks would have seen this as a splendid opportunity to blame someone else, to securé a new garment at the expense of the firm, if possible. he told himself. “Oh,’’ and Corliss suddenly re- membered his telephone conversa- tion. ‘You.just came in this min- ute?’’ “Yes,’”’ murmured the _ tactful Mollie, twisting the skirt a bit, to gaze with unassumed woe at the ruinous stain. ‘‘Just this second.’’ “That’s lucky,’ and _ Corliss sighed with relief. ‘I’m glad... glad you came back. I was really move | wishing was one which strangely enough,! worry about that dress.”’ | | | you were here. Don’t ‘*Miss what is the name?”’ ‘Mollie!’ she blurted and then blushed, remembering that she was not in simple Kingsville. ‘I mean, Miss Mayhew.’”’ Corliss’ eyes lighted pleasantly, and for the first time Mollie real- ized that his lashes were long, his lips red and resolute, and the firm Miss contours of his determined face far from unhandsome. *‘Miss Mollie, I’ll call you. It’s a pretty name—sounds just as you look,’’ was his queer reply. ‘‘You’re a good sport. Try to be one myself —when my selfishness doesn’t con- quer . . I like gameness ; It’s a good asset in any office, too.”’ Mollie looked away, although she: was not unpleased. She had never expected to have such a personal conversation with the head of the company. She was not quite cer- tain what she should say next. Sud- denly she wondered what the other two girls would say could they hear Mr. Corliss adopting the use of her first name. She hoped they would never hear him——they were so quick to judge the wrong thing. In- stinctively she feared their keen words and sharp eyes. Even pokey, old Kingsville had girls of this feline caliber. Corliss was glancing at the prim, Simple suit. His eyes took in for the first time the slender grace of the young figure, the arched insteps which Kingsville’s “lowcuts’’ would not rob of their high contour. Mollie flamed a roseate hue under the almost biting scrutiny of those sophistocated eyes. “Yes, I'll be a sport as well,” con- tinued Corliss. ‘You'll have a dress to replace that. * * *’ “But, Mr. Corliss,’’ and her eyes were frightened. ‘I must earn it. » * * I did not ask to have this replaced.”’ Here was the very menace of which she had been warned by her reading, by the plays she had seen on the screen and by her wise- acre cousins. It had come sud- denly—the end of her first week. Corliss understood, with that shrewd intuition of his. “You misunderstand. You'll have to earn everything in this busy city,’’ and he chuckled. “Just now I’m desperately in need of an assis- tant this afternoon. It’s very im- portant to our business that a con- tract should be drawn up for the sale of some stock to a certain rich old gentleman named Mortimer Weldon. It will take four houre, © *%9”" “T’ll be so glad to do it,” said Mollie, eagerly. Here was her chance to prove her caliber. “But you may have an engage- ment——-with some fine young gen- tleman. And, besides, it is Satur- day.” “I know no young or old gentle- “This yellow will eradicate any ink spot,’’ he laughed. men in the city,”’ Mollie volunteered shyly. ‘‘And Saturday—well, that’s just the sixth day in the week to me—for I’m a stranger here.” Corliss laughed jovially. “It won’t be long \before both matters are changed, if I’m any judge,’’ he said. ‘‘And we'll see what can be done about it.. Mean- while, I’ll get you the memoran- dum, and a copy which must be partially duplicated.’’ Corliss took up the telephone re- ceiver and laughed merrily again. “Pardon me, Wentworth, a most unfortunate interruption. My new private secretary just came back to get her purse. She can type that contract, after all. So we can ped- dle our violets to Weldon tonight, right on the dotted line—provided | you can bring the prettiest girl you ' know to the lobby of his hotel at 7 * * * What’s that? Yes, she’s very clever.’’ Onice more Mollie was embar- rassed by what she overheard. But, being exactly what Corliss said, she discounted the remark = she knew intended for her ears. “Phil Blythe will be in in half an hour to go over the plan with me. He can dig up a couple of other girls, so that the party will be com- plete. I have a little surprise for you, as well.’’ Mollie, now seated at her desk and waiting orders, was disturbed. But Corliss was smiling down at her, She wondered at the outcome. She was not long in doubt. He was laying a crisp, orange-hued bank- note before her. Her startled eyes beheld the figure ‘100.’’ Before = could speak, Corliss was talk- ng. “This yellow will eradicate any ink-spot,’’ he laughed. ‘‘The shops will be open for late Saturday afternoon trade, uptown in the the- atrical district. Get something gay something for evenings. For this evening, indeed. And a saucy little hat * * * and a pair of slippers that. are fitted to dancing to jazz * * * and a couple of other little things.

It is a typical American home. We drag each | other out of bed in the morning all happy, and have an awful time get- ting the children ready for the pan- cakes. Mother gets the breakfast and one may hear her singing all over the neighborhood. Thanks are heard over a meal which has been carefully studied and most appetiz- ingly prepared. Lunches are pre- pared for all, and the lady of the house sends them away with a kiss andahug. She sews, mends, cleans the house, spends some time each day in reading and study, attends the lectures and recitals, and has ‘the most sumptuous supper ready | when they all come home. She _takes an active interest in her hus- ' band’s work, helps the children 'with their school duties.

Each trusts the other and'so moves on a typical American home in which nat oné member would exchange his place for the White House.

Then out come jets of water 10 or 15 feet high, and after that a great outburst which may rise to more than 150 feet in the air. As this shoots up, there is a roar, and clouds of steam surround the water.

One of these rocks has been named the ‘‘Devil’s Hoof,” be- cause the top of it looks like the cloven hoof of a beast.

The American Security & Trust closed on December 31, last, the best year in its history, accord- ing to the annual report of Charles J. Bell, president, presented yes- terday to the institution’s share- holders at their annual meeting. Deposits totaled: $32,337,814.28 nt the close of business, December $1, 1925, a gain for the year of $4,203,513.85, and the number of deposit. accounts on the books was 72,705. During the year covered by the report there was transferred to sur- plus the sum of $300,000, making the surplus account at the end of the year $2,700,000, and after pro- ' viding for the dividend of $170,- 000, to be paid on January 11, the item of undivided profits stood at $484,516.20. Earnings for the year were $692,915.37, and during the twelve- month period the company paid in- terest to depositors in the sum of $567,048.43. In addition to the increase in deposits the _ report showed that investments held by the company in various trust capac- ities increased more than $2,490,- | 000. The election by stockholders re- | sulted in the addition of James F. Co. Hood, secretary of the company, to } U the board of directors, and the re- election of the following members: Clarence A. Aspinwall, Charles J. Bell, Harry K. Boss, John C, Boyd, George W. Brown, Willlam M., Coates, William S. Corby, William W. Everett, William J. Flather, jr.; M. G. Gibbs, Cary T. Grayson, James M.

Shannon, James F, Shea, Charles A. Spalding. Corcoran Thom andj John F. Wilkins. Immediately after the election of the directors the board was organ- ized and these officers were chosen | for the ensuing year:. Charles J. Bell, president; Corcoran Thom, B. F. Saul and Howard Moran, vice presidents; James IF. Hood, secre- tary; Charles FE. Howe, treasurer; Alfred B. Leet, trust officer: Will- iam L. Beale, real estate officer; J.

Keck, Ed- ward EK. Swan, Hans W. Ireland, Richard FE. Harris, Percy C. Brady, Harry P. White, James C. Dulin, jr., and Fred U. Hanks, assistant treas- urers, and John E. Benton, assist- ant auditor. Following the report of clection the resignations of James F. Hood, secretary, and Alfred B. Leet, trust officer, were tendered and regret- fully accepted. Mr. Hood will re- tain his connection with the com- pany through his membership on the directorate, to which body he was elected yesterday. Mr. Leet, whose connection with the institu- tion has extended over a period of 30 years, severs his connection with the company to devote his whole time to his important interests, chief of these being the Southern States Klecirical Co., of which he is president. The vacancy in the office of sec- retary, created by the retirement of Mr. Hood, was immediately filled with the election of Frederick P. H. Siddons, former assistant secretary, to that office. Corcoran Thom, vice president, will, along with his other duties, supervise the trust depart- ment. Howard Moran, vice president, who has directed the Central branch, formerly the Home Savings Bank, has moved his desk to the main office and hereafter will be found there. Munsey Has Best Year.

FONTAINE, said the man at the ticker, and he New York, Jan. 19.-—Advertising | tore this bulletin off the tape: their activities in advance is a new method that the bearshave adopted for attracting a public following, but it remains to be seen whether that kind of publicity pays. Long before the gong sounded the begin- | ning of another day on ’change the tip went around the strect, by way of the telephone: “Get out of the baking stocks: Bear raid staged for shortly after the opening.’’ And, sure enough, on schedule time the attack was launched. And this is the way the man at the ticker told the tale: ° . ~ + “Trading in Ward: Baking B stock from 10 to 11 o’clock totaled 60,900 shares, The opening was 80% and low 76%; off 3% from yesterday’s close. A block of 10,000 shares sold at 795, and then the next sale was 5,000 at 79%. “There was a pointer in the street to sell Ward Baking B at the opening; in fact, a lot of tipping sheets said that an attack would be made on the stock. For some time the stock withstood the selfing at 80, but a great outburst of selling carried the stock rapidly down to 76%. Even at these levels support heavy dealings rose to 78. ‘Banks reduce rate for call loans to 4 per cent.’’ “Then you don’t think the calling for the loan total is bearish.

Wallace Stars : Both Encounters of England, Two | Love Sets. ene ANNES, France, Jan. 19 (By t; A. P.).—Miss Helen Wills, America’s woman tennis cham- pion, made an impressive debut in her first appearance of the Riviera season this afternoon, turning in a crushing victory of two love sets, the score to. which her mighty rival Suzanne Lenglen has accustomed tennis fans in the south of Frauce. Miss E. M. Green, of England, the American champion’s first ad- versary, although no champion. plays a useful game of old style tennis. Today, however, she was simply smothered by Miss Will’s powerful driving. Miss Green suc- ceeded in bringing only two games to deuce, while she lost two love games. The English girl scored only eight points in each set for a total of 16 to Miss Will’s total of 50. M what shaky in the first set. It was a dull day and the tricky light effects of which many overseas players have complained appeared to bother her. She made seven double faults, but exactly bal- anced these by a like number of service aces.

Georgetown’s defeat at the hands of Army last Saturday was a costly one. Not only did it put a blur on the Hilltoppers’ record, but it may also rob the team of the use of Capt. Gitlitz, star guard, in tonight’s game. The Hilltop leader received a rather severe steady little forward who has done the major part of Georgetown’s scoring in the games played thus far. The rest of the team is un- changed, which means Johannes will jump center and Vukmanic will occupy his regular guard. While not much is known of Lebanon Valley, the visitors are said to have a crack club. Two Indians are the star players of the team and are. reputed to be whirl- winds in handling the ball and dropping it through the hoop. Of $18,000 for 1926. New York, Jan. 19 (By A.

U.S., French Nieinen Plan Indoor Match. New York, Jan. 19 (By A. P.).— The struggle for tennis supremacy between France and the United States, marked by Helen Wills’ in- vasion of the Riviera, will stretch to indoor courts here next month in an international team match fol- lowing play for the national indoor championship. Plans for a meeting of men’s teams from the two nations were revealed today by the United States Lawn Tennis association. The ca- bled entries of the French stars, Rene Lecoste and Jacques Brugnon, for the indoor tournament on Feb- ruary 15, also were announced.

The score was 25 to 24. The game was saved to the Mets by the two-pointer and two free throws that were scored by Miss Pauline Thomas in the last minute of play when the W. A. C.’s were leading 21-24, and the episode was a fitting climax to the game which had been close all the way. There were few stars in the encounter, however, as each team realized that its strongest bid for the victory Neither team played its game, as it was handicapped by the small floor and the fact that the spectators who were lucky enough to gain entrance at all had their feet in the court.

It will be hard, too, for McGraw to find fault with his “‘ivory’’ hands if their minds wander occasionally to options and other prosaic matters, for many members of the sales staff employed by McGfaw are ball play- ers who spend thein winters picking up a few dollars in the Sunshine State. ‘FITTING DEPARTMENT. 10 7 109-6 64 108-29 17 65 100-29 » 46 ~R- : 4 28 04- epee stp OFFICES.

CK TURNS DOWN PIN gird |Convention Hall Takes Neutral Position in Dispute. By W. CHARLES QUANT. OHN 8S. BLICK, president of the ‘a| J convention Hall Bowling al- leys, announced last night that his organization could not permit either the Washington City Duck- pin association or Capital City Duckpin association to hold their annual tournaments on its alleys this season. He further announced that he would not foster or permit a third association to stage a tour- nament on his establishment unless it was a consolidated body of the. present bowling organizations. This statement was made at a meeting of the officers of the two associations held in the Evening Star building before representatives of the press for the purpose of bringing ‘about a merger. Mr, Blick further stated that his resig- nation as vice president of the Cap- ital City body would be forwarded to the secretary of that organiza- ition immediately. HE Convention hall man- / agement takes this stand mvasmuch as the Washing- ton City Duckpin association at ' its recent meeting voted that this season’s tournament would be held on the Convention hall alleys with the King Pin and Coliseum coming in for their turn, according to the cycle sys- tem, At that time the Washington 'City association was informed that ithe Capital City body had already requested permission to stage its ‘annual event there, if so voted by ithe directorate. But upon assurance from ident Evans, of the latter body, that ‘their tournament would be out of ithe way before April 12, the time ‘set for the opening of the Washing- jton city event, Mr. Blick accepted ithe proposition put forward by the Washington city directors. Since that time he has learned ‘that he could not allow the Capital |City tournament to be staged prior o that date, out of justice ta his ‘business. Accordingly, rather than ‘favor either group, he has decided 'to take the step set forth above and ‘remain neutral.

BULLOU DECLARES Superintendent Denies That Action Is Part of General CONN SHAKE: Up. WALKOUT OF PUPILS REGARDED AS ENDED successor to Ousted Principal May Be Considered by Board Today. Demotion of Capt. Arthur C. Newman, from the principalship of Armstrong technical, colored high school, which will be considered by the Board of Education in regular meeting 3:30 o'clock this afternoon in the Franklin school, is not a part - of any general shake-up among the teachers and executives of the col- ored public schools. This was made clear yesterday by Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superin- tendent of schools, and Garnet C. Wilkinson, assistant superintendent in charge of colored schools. Their statements were made to put an end to rumors that the Newman demo- tion is only a part of a general shake-up which will involve many teachers and supervisory officers. No teacher or supervisor, Dr. Bal- lou declared, will be demoted be- cause of the lack of academic or other qualifications, which were not demanded of them at the time of their appointment. Ballou Rule Followed. This rule, which has been laid down by Dr. Ballou, will be fol- lowed in all of his recommenda- tions, Mr. Wilkinson said. With 836 pupils reporting at their desks yesterday school offi- clals declared they considered the strike of the pupils, because of the recommendation for the principal’s demotion made by the personnel committee of the board of educa- tion, virtually at an end. Mrs. Coralie F. Cook, colored board member, is chairman of the per- sonnel committee. Whether Capt. Newman's suc- cessor will be chosen at the meet- ing of the board of education this afternoon has not been determined, it was said yesterday. Whether a nomination will be made will not be determined until shortly before the regular board meeting, when the program for the meeting is prepared by EF. C. Graham, presi- dent of the board, and Dr. Ballou and his assistants. The meeting this afternoon, it is expected, will be crowded with parents and representatives of the pupils, who have declared their purpose to appeal to the board against Newman’s demotion. Some threats have been made to take the matter to Congress for investiga- . tion if the demotion is approved by the board. In the face of these, however, school officers declare they have no intention of changing their recommendation for demotion. Trade Board Committee Studies School Problems School building, school ventila- tion, the Gasque bill and junior col- lege legislation were considered by the public schools committee of the Board of Trade yesterday. A committee of three will be named to confer with Superintend- ent of Public Schools Ballou and the Board of Education to find out how the Board of Trade committee can best help them in the five-year building program. A committee of five will investi- gate the Gasque bill providing for election of members of the Board of Education, with reference to a constitution of public school poli- cies, committeemen learning that enactment of this legislation would mean the creation of a new Board of Education. School ventilation, particularly the present lack of forced ventila- tion at.the Chevy Chase .school, and legislation providing a junior col- lege as part of the public school system, also will be investigated. League Formed to Protest Demotion of Newman Dr. George Herriott was elected president of the Peoples Protest league, which was organized last night at the Murray Casino to carry the matter of Newman’s demotion, in interest of a change of school system, to whereyer a hearing may be obtained. Mrs. Ira Wright was named vice president, Simeon Cun- ningham secretary and Clinton Burke treasurer. Several Armstrong students ad- dressed the meeting, declaring their intention to strike in case Capt. Newman js demoted today by the board. Picketing of Franklin building, if an organization for the purpose can be developed, was ad- vocated by Armond W. Scott. FLAGS AS THRIFT PRIZES. Two to Be Given to Schools Having Greatest Amount of Savings. Two large American flags will be given to the two schools showing the greatest savings on the part of pu- pils during Thrift week. The flags are donated by the Associated Re- tail Credit Men of Washington. Frank D.
