TREASURY /SECR ETARY TO SUPERVISE FUNDS Plan Provides $115,000,000 to Be Used in Filling Needs Throughout Country. With a margin of only six votes over the necessary two-thirds, the House yesterday passed the $1665,- 000, 000 public buildings’ bill, carry- ing $50, 000,000 for government buildings in Washington. The bill was passed under a sus- pension of the rules by a vote of 263 to 120, with two members vot- ing present. Despite the attack on the measure by Minority Leader Garrett,.68 Democrats joined with the administration in its effort to get away from the “pork barrel’’ policy of allocating funds for public buildings. Twenty-three Republic- ans voted against the bill. The $60,000,000 provided for buildings here is to be expended by the Secretary of the Treasury un- der the supervision of the public buildings commission. Buildings for the internal revenue bureau and the Department of Commerce are understood to be the first projects contemplated. The money is to be made available in sums of $10,000,- 000 annually over a five-year pe- riod. Projects Authorized. The Treasury Secretary also will have the expenditure of the $115,- 000,000 allotted to the country at large, $15,000,000 of which is for projects already authorized at Utica, N. Y.; Newark, N. J.: Chi- cago, Ill.; Detroit, Mich.;’ Missoula, Mont.; Savannah, Ga., and other places. In the case of postoffices, the Treasury Secretary must con¢ sult with the Postmaster General. Representative Lanham, of Texas, ranking minority member of the public buildings and grounds com- mittee, led the opposition to the bill, debate on which was held to 50 minutes. Minority Leader Gar- rett asserted that the bill was being railroaded through with no chance to amend it or-.have it recommitted to committee. The Democrats gave their party leader an enthusiastic reception, frequently shouting and applauding as he assailed the majority party. It developed, however, that it was mostly a manifestation of personal loyalty rather than support. Allocations Denied. Mr. Lanham attacked the $50,- | 000,000 provision for the District and charged that a tentative list of allocations had already been pre- pared by which six or seven large States were to get the bulk of the buildings. Chairman Elliott of the buildings committee declared that no list had been prepared and that the money for the country at large’ was to be needs. Majority Leader Tilson deée- fended the Dill. BIDDER PAYS $106,000 FOR GUTENBERG BIBLE Philadelphian Gets Copy Kept in Austrian Monastery for 300 Years. New York, Feb. 15 (By A, P.).— One of the original copies of the Gutenberg Bible, 471 years old, and one of the first printed books, was sold at public auction tonight in the Anderson galleries for $106,000. The purchaser was Dr. A. 8. Rosen- bach, of Philadelphia. The opening bid was $50,000, and bidding lasted about ten minutes. It had been reported before the sale that a movement was on foot to purchase the Bible for the, Ca- thedral of Saint John the Divine, but none of the bidders, so far as could be learned, was trying to buy it for this purpose. The Gutenberg Bible is one of the rarest in existence. There are only 45 known copies, of which more than 20 are imperfect. The one sold tonight is a perfect copy, consisting of two calf-bound vol- umes. For 300 years it “was treas- ured at the Benedictine monastery at’Melk, Austria. Last summer it. was obtained by Edward Goldstein, | London book déaler, who turned it over to Mitchell Kenerley, presi- dent of the Anderson galleries. expended to meet the outstanding Index to Today's Issue. | Pages. 1—-Pass Public Buildings Bill. ’ Countess Appeals to Davis.

Traffic lights, similar to those now in use on Sixteenth street, will be installed on Pennsylvania ave- nue, F street, G street and other important thoroughfares of the city, declared Director of Traffic M. O. Eldridge in an address last night before the traffic council of the District, which met in the offices of the American Automobile asso- ciation. ‘“‘All we need to place the plan in operation,” Mr. Eldridge said, ‘is the necessary funds.’’ Installation of lights on im- portant thoroughfares would not only afford pedestrians greater pro- tection and facilitate the movement of traffic, but it would do away with the necessity of traffic of- ficers, Mr. Eldridge declared. The cost of installation of the lights per crossing is about $1,800, he said, but when it is compared with the $4,200 necessary each year for the maintenance of two shifts of traffic men at each crossing, the lights are cheaper, by far. » ~ Says Walkers Protected. “The new system provides ab- solute protection for pedestrians who desire to be protected,’’ Mr. Eldridge stated. ‘‘Some days ago Judge McMahon, of the police court, ruled that the director of traffic had no authority, under the present traffic act, to control pedestrian traffic.”” Mr. Eldridge declared. ‘‘However, we now have pedestrian protection on Sixteenth street,’’ he said, ‘‘but we are unable to control the movement of pedestrians.”’ Until appropriate legislation is enacted, Mr. Eldridge told the council, it will be impossible to bring about a material reduction in accidents to pedestrians at con- trolled intersections. Mr. Eldridge told the council that he does not want the traffic police of Washington - placed under his control, ‘It has mever been my desire to have the traffic police formed into an independent body under my con- trol and apart from the metropoli- tan police force, nor have I recom- mended or suggested such legisla- tion,” he said. Favors Independent Bureau. The enforcement of traffic regu- lations is distinctly a police func- tion, Mr. Eldridge declared, but “it is my firm conviction, however, that the _ traffic bureau should function as an independent bureau of the department, just as the de- tective bureau now functions.” The inspector in command of the traffic bureau, who is under the su- pervision of the chief of police, should, in cooperation with the di- rector of traffic, be responsible for the enforcement of all traffic regu- lations and all special traffic situa- tions arising by reason of parades and unusual gatherings, according to Mr. Eldridge. In this way, Mr. Eldridge argued, trafic work could be centralized, unified and standardized, under one Official of the police department. “Any decentralized plan, by which the authority is divided among a number of officials,’’ Mr. Eldridge declared, “is bound to lead ‘to confusion and to misunderstand- ‘ing. Too many cooks, however ef- | ficient the cooks may be,”’ ne. said, “will spoil the broth.’’ CONTINUSD ON | NINTH PAGE. | COUNTESS COUNSEL READY FOR APPEAL TO SECRETARY DAVIG Will Take That Action If Board of Review Here __Denies Admission. ARGUMENTS HEARD BEHIND CLOSED DOORS Vera Thanks Woman’s Party Which Holds Meeting of Protest Outdoors. Counsel for Vera, Countess Cutheart, are prepared to carry an appeal for her admission to this country direct to Secretary of Labor James J. Davis if the Department of Labor board of review assents to her deportation. Wilton J. ILam- bert and Austin F. Canfield, of this city, and William A. De Ford, New York, presented her case yesterday afternoon before W. N. Smelser, A. R. Archbald and T. F. Finnacuane, forming the board of review. The hearing was private and a deputa- tion from the National Woman's party, calling to make an appeal for a single standard of morals at the hearing, presented it in front of department headquarters. Attorney for a public hearing was denied. Taken Under Advisement. Following argument, announced that the case would be taken under advisement and that its recommendation to Secretary Davis might be expected shortly. In the event of an adverse recommen- dation, time to carry an appeal to'| Secretary Davis was requested. Under present ruling providing for deportation of persons on the | same ship line on which they came | here, Countess Cathcart can remain until February 27, the next sailing date of the Cunarder. Appearance of Countess Cath- cart’s lawyers before Secretary Davis will depend on his permis- sion. The Labor Department was not represented by counsel, mem- bers of the reviewing board ques- tioning the countess’ attorneys from time to time. Miss Mabel Vernon, Wilmington, Del., Mrs.. Robert Walker, Balti- more, and Miss Myrtle Cain, Min- neapolis, spoke at the protest meet- ing of the Woman’s Party outside the building while the hearing was going on. Countess Cathcart’s thanks for the Woman’s Party in- terest in her case were received at its headquarters yesterday after- noon.

Rafael R. Govin, president of the Journal of Commerce company, and head of the United States Asphalt & Refining Co., of New, York, and a former resident of Washington, died Sunday in Monte Carlo, Mo- naco, according to a cablegram re- ceived last night. Mr. Govin’s death came suddenly, and was due to heart disease, the dispatch stated. He went abroad early last month to join Mrs. Govin, who was traveling in Europe. and met her at Monte Carlo. News oft the death was first received by Mr. sa Govin’s business associates in New York. In addition to directing the Journal of Commerce and Commer- cial Bulletin, Mr. Govin was pro- prietor of El Mundo and La Prensa, both of Havana, Cuba. and the Havana Post and Havana Telegram. For years, Mr. and Mrs. Govin were prominent in Washington so- ciety circles. The wedding of their daughter, Miss Mary I. Govin, to John D. Schoonmaker, of Kingston, N. Y., was one of the most fashion- able functions of the Capital in the 1924 season. Miss Govin also made her debut here and in New York.

Justice Stafford wrote his opinion on the Fall-Doheny indictment, but will file a memorandum stating that the reasons for the overruling of the demurrur to this indictment apply to the Fall-Sinclair indictment. The principal contention raised in the demurrers to the conspiracy in- dictment is that Mr. Fall was not authorized by law to do anything in connection with any of the leases which would have been binding upon either the government or any one dealing with the government. Power to lease these reserves rested only with the Secretary of the Navy, w ho was then Edwin Denby, the de- fendants declared. There were other points raised, but the alleged lack of authority on the part of Mr. Fall is the point on which the case now turns. Justice Stafford deals with that contention at length in his sopinion to the exclusion of almost all other questions. Unless the Court of Zrants a special writ to .the de- fendants from the order overrul- ing tly: demurrer to the conspiracy indictments the defendants must stan¢@ trial in the criminal courts. It bas been conceded by counsel for the defendants that the same questions of law would be raised in demurrers to the bribery in- dictments as were raised in the demurrers to the conspiracy in- dictments. It was stated that if Justice Stafford threw out the conspiracy indictments, then it must follow that the bribery indictments would also .be thrown out. Frank J. Hogan ‘and .George P.

PADLOCKS ON SALOONS IN OUTLYING DISTRICTS One of Men Held Abandons Hunger Strike; Death of American Studied. / Tia Juana, Mexico, Feb. 15 By (A. P.).—Under orders of Mayor Pala- cio, of Tia Juana, padlocks were placed on saloons in the outlying districts of the resort section today as the result of the Peteet incident which led to the suicide of an entire family in San Diego recently. It was announced that every woman entertainer in Tia Juana had been expelled. Indications were that Judge Urias would act tomorrow upon the criminal informations filed against seven men in the Peteet case. To- day he still was going over the mass of evidence collected by the au- thorities. . Mexican officials went to San Diego to examine the bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas H. Peteet and their two daughters, Audrey and Clyde, who lay down to die in a suicide agreement when overcome by shame and sorrow at their expe- rience in Tia Juana. Permission to examine the bodies gas granted by Coroner Schuyler €. Kelly, of San Diego county. Hunger Strike Abandoned. Luis Amador, one. of those charged with murder in connection with the deaths of the Peteets, abandoned the hunger strike that since Saturday morning. Amador, it was said, ac- cepted food when breakfast was served prisoners in the cuartel. Drs. E. F. Chamberlin and Edgar Lee, of San Diego, came to Tia Juana at the request of Mexican of- ficials to examine former Chief of Police Zenaido Llanos, who has raised the defense of impotency. Llanos has been named as one who assaulted Audrey Peteet. He denies the charge. Amador is charged with having attacked Clyde Peteet. It was stated that an information would be. filed in the California State courts against Jailer Czuna in connection with the recent death of T. H.

Bergdoll, under arrext on the charge of impairing the morals of a minor, faces the possibility of deportation, foreign office officials indicated today, if the government decides he is an “objectionable alien.” The Federal authorities, however, are not likely to take a hand until the Baden authorities, who have Bergdoll’s case in charge, concTude their secret investigation and ob- tain a conviction.

PARKS MAY REPLAE DOWNTOWN BUILDINGS ee Boylan Would Eliminate ‘Eye- sores’ on Pennsylvania Avenue Near Capitol. BILL PROVIDES PURCHASE A bill to eliminate what he de- scribes as “eye sores’’ PennsyWenia avenue was _ intro- duced in the House yesterday by Representative Boylan. of New York. Mr. Boylan’s bill would authorize government acquisition of all prop- erty on the north side of Pennsyl- Vania avenue from First to Third streets, northwest, at a cost not to exceed $1,000,000. The property would be transformed into parks to match in agpearance the Botanic garden extending the same length on lower , on the south side of the Avenue. Present changes which the prop- erty is undergoing make it possible for the government to acquire the north side of the street at this time at a lower figure than it will ever have again, Mr. Bolyan said. Development of the propérty into one large park or a series of parks would beautify the Capitol ap- proach, Mr. Boylan pointed out. The Capitol now faces on the well kept Botanic garden on one side of the Avenue, while on the other side ls a vista of shabby buildings more befitting the slums than the Capitol approach, he argued.

U. 8S, Grant ings. Maj. Grant is of the opinion that it would cost $590,000 to re- pair the White House roof, but the difficulty, he states, is that. Presi- dent Coolidge disapproves of such a large expenditure, and further- more the President does not see how he can get away for the length of time that the proposed repairs would consume. Bight tons were taken off the weight of the roof by the removal of a 2,000 gallon water tank during the past year, but this has not en- tirely removed the danger of col- lapse. The roof has settled in marked degree since 1912, when it was overhauled by act of Congress. In a discussion of the subjeet with the House appropriations com- mittee during consideration of the independent office supply _ bill, which was reported yesterday, Maj. Grant said the trusses or beams of now rests on _ interior This condition has continued for the last ten years, according to Maj. ‘Grant. Bill Expediting Jury Drawing Is Approved The Graham Dill, providing that when a Vacancy occurs among the place can be filled from among the list of petit jurors, was reported favorably by the House judiciary committee yesterday. Under the present law, it is ex- plained. the jury commission can only draw 23 names for the grand jury. The grand jury comprises that number. When a vacancy occurs it is necessary for the com- mission to make another drawing. The qualifications Pep at and grand jurors here are th& same.

The District commissioners, District uuditor, other district and school officials will be heard the first day.

HOUSE INSTALMENT XVII EPTEMBER 30, 1914 (conference between Wilson and House): When we were discussing the seizure of vessels by Great Britain, he read a page from his ‘History of the American People,’ telling how, during Madison’s administration, the War of 1812 was started in exactly the same way as this controversy is opening up. The passage said that Madison was compelled to go to war despite the fact that he was a peace-loving man and desired to do everything in his power to prevent it, but popular feeling made it impossible. “The President said: that have become President. The ‘Madison and I are the only two Princeton men circumstances of the War of 1812 and now run parallel. I sincerely hope they will not go further.’ ”’ House to President ; ‘ineeds be careful in the manner of New York, Oct. 21, 1914. Dear Governor: I have received the following ca- blegram from Page through his son, Arthur; “‘God deliver us (or can you de- ifver us?) from library lawyers! They often lose chestnuts while they argue about burns. See our friend [President Wilson] and come here immediately if the case be not already settled. Of utmost importance.” I hardly know to what he refers, but perhaps you do. It may be the Declaration of London matter. I notice that Northcliffe in his papers and ‘‘The London Post” are demanding that the government seize neutral vessels carrying re- servists or contraband cargoes. If you think I can be of any serv- ice, please wire me and I will come to Washington immediately. Page is evidently disturbed. Affection- ately yours, E. M. HOUSE. The President replied that if Page was disturbed by the attitnde of the State Department, he, Wil- son. was a little disturbed by that of the Ambasasdor. If Page were to represent the American govern- ment, he must see the matters un- der discussion in the light in which they were seen in the United States. Wilson insisted that Page’s advice was of great value, but he expressed the fear that Page’s intense feeling . for the British casé might prove a danger. Wilson himself was some. times disparaging in his remarks about professional diplomats, but he did not enjoy having the work of the State Department, which em- phasized the American. point. of view, refererd to as that of “library lawyers.’ ‘September 28, 1914: I had Hoover [chief usher at the White House]jarrange with Billy Phillips for the use of his home, and I ask- ed Sir Cecil Spring-Rice over the telephone to meet me there at 10 o’clock,’’ recorded House. ‘The conference was a most interesting one. ‘‘I showed the Ambassador the letter X bad prepared to send Page. He was thoroughly alarmed over some of the diplomatic expressions. One paragraph in particular he thought amounted almost to a dec- laration of war. He said if that paper should get into the hands of the press the headlines would indi- cate that war with Great Britain was mevitable, and he believed one of the greatest panics the country ever saw would ensue, for it was as bad or worse than the Venezuela incident. He said he did not know what I had accomplished in a busy life, but he felt sure I had never done as important a piece of work as in this instance. * * * ‘*‘We discussed the best ways and means of getting out of the diffi- eulty, which he said would never have arisen if the State Departmen, had talked the matter over with him frankly in the beginning.

I sent the telegram through Arthur s0 that your name and mine should not be on the same telegram and thereby possibly excite suspicion. The situation is safe, but it can at any time be made critical by a captious manner. I did not and do not mean to criticize Lansing or anybody else—only to make sure that things are seen in their proper perspective. ... It’s no time, then, to quarrel or to be bumptious about a cargo of oil or of copper, or to deal with these governments as if things were normal. Thank God you are 3,000 miles from it.

My Dear House: 2 « € 2 yee wy Be, God knows, to keep the way as smooth as possible; but neither government helps me. Our gov- ernment merely sends the ship- pers’ ex-parte statement.

I get my facts as best I can—from other neutrals, from ship captains, etc.—-and I do the best I can, getting thanks for nothing, getting lectures for— nothing. I happened a little while ago to telegraph that I ‘‘confer- red” with the neutral ministers, meaning, of course, that I talked with them and found out what facts I could. It was their ships that were stopped with American cargoes. I got back a dispatch, from Washington saying I had no authority to be making shipping and trade agreements with neutral powers—they did that themselves at Washington! Now what dam- fool in the State department sup- posed that I was making agree- ments with any government that I was doing anything but try- ing day and night to get an Amer- ican cargo released and to prevent more from being stopped—-I don’t know or care to know; and I haven’t a trace of a shade of a dream of feeling about it.

Dear Judge: * * * The kaiser has_ stood for peace all these years, and it would not be inconsistent with his past life and services to be willing now to consider such overtures. If peace could come at this hour it should be upon the general propo- sition that every nation d@t war should be guaranteed its territorial integrity of today. Then a general Plan of disarmament should be brought about, for there would be no need under such an arrangement for larger armies than were neces- sary for police purposes. Of course, this matter would have to be handled very delicately; otherwise sensibilities might be of- fended. As far as I am concerned, I would view with alarm and genuine regret any vital disaster to the German people. The only feeling in America that has been manifested against Germany has not been directed against her as a nation, but merely against her as the embodiment of militarism. * * *® Faithfully yours, E.

Dear Governor: Bernstorff came to see me this afternoon. J] suggested that he meet S{r Cecil Spring-Rice at din- ner. He is willing. I am writing Sir Cecil asking if it would be convenient for him to come to New York within the next day or two, but making no men- tion of my conferences with Bern- storff. If we can get these two to- gether we can at least make a ct. - 9 . Now that I am in touch with Bernstorff, I hope to persuade him to close his mouth for a _ while. He promises that no human being shall know of these negotiations. The world expects you to play the big part in this tragedy—-and s0 indeed you will, for God has given you the power to see things as they are. Your faithful and affectionate E. M. HOUSE. Bernstorff,”’ Col. House recorded in a_ separate memorandum, “in a different at- titude from when I last saw him, which was in the spring. He was then debonnaire and cock-sure of himself and of his country. I be- gan to talk of the peace negotia- tions. I asked if he had met Sir Cecil Spring-Rice since hostilities began. He said he had not, that it was against diplomatic usage to do so. I thought the best thing that could be done now was for the two of’ them to meet, and I asked if he was willing to do 50 provided I could bring it about. He hesitated for a moment and then @aid he would be willing to do so provided it was known only to the three of us. I agreed that the President would be the only one informed.”’ “September 20, 1914: I met Sir Cecil,’’ recorded House, ‘‘at 7:30 at the Pennsylvania. I did not get out of the car for fear of being seen. We immediately took up the sub- ject in hand. I found him unwill- ing to confer with Bernstorff, whom he considers thoroughly unreliable. He says he has a bad reputation not only in England but in Germany, and that he was sent to America be- cause it was thought he could do no harm here. °* °* §® "ae 66 CU Oe. ote 6s mans were so unrellfable, that their political philosophy was so selfish and so unmoral that he hesitated to open up negotiations with them. He was also afraid the time was not ripe for peace proposals. “He said it would be necessary for all the allies to be approached simultaneously, for it would not do for Great Britain to begin secret negotiations, even if they were will- ing, because Germany would not play fair and would later denounce Great Britain as being treacherous to her allies.’’ The cable which Spring-Rice sent to Sir Edward Grey as the result of this conversation, embodying the pen point of view, was as fol- ows: ae | found Spring-Rice to Grey | Bernstorff was willing that he should enter into communication with S.-R. direct. §&.-R. answered that as three powers were bound to te a ee eee ee eee or | | | the label.

President may therefore (from this point of ‘view) be anxious to facilitate negotiations now. The basis for these might well be Sir Io. G.’s two principles: (1) End of militarism and permanent peace. {2) Compensation to Belgium. If other powers are willing to make suggestions in order to effect an agreement on the basis of these two principles, then negotiations could begin. If they have other pro- posals to make, it would be as well that they should be made known as soon as possible for reasons given above, and the P(resident) would be perfectly willing to facili- tate exchange of ideas as friendly intermediary, without expression of opinion. G(ermany) is doing her best to put E(ngland) in the wrong by causing a belief that E(ngland) is rejecting G(ermany)'s friendly overtures. “September 29, ¥914 (Spring- Rice and House in conference): He said the cablegram to Sir Edward Grey, which we composed together, September 20, was being considered by his government and they were discussing it with the Allies.

Feb. 15 (BY A. P.).— Premier Briand definitely broke with the socialists this afternoon, declaring a majority must be found in the chamber of deputies without them to vote the financial restora- tion of the country. M. Briand made a veiled threat at dissolution of the chamber. He said the government intended to go through with its task to the end. It would go to the senate with the problem and then return to the chamber. If a solution was still lacking, it would prove the impos- sibility of the present chamber vot- ing the financial restoration, The situation seems more con- fused and uncertain than ever and Premier Briand appears to be be- ginning to lose patience. It was rumored in the lobbies of the cham- ber last night that he was heard to remark: “‘“‘I have had enough: of this. I am going to quit.” The sum total of the chamber'’s Paris, efforts yesterday was to vote meas-| | ures bringing in °50.000.000 francs, but, at the same-time, to eliminate others providing for al- most as large an acount.

Subse- “quently the President sent up a supplemental estimate for $10,000,000, making $50,000,- *000 altogether.

It was the - habit of members of Congress to make deals . for the ‘expenditures of large sums of money . in one another's district for the improvement ‘of some river or harbor. This practice was “the occasion one of the most memorable “speeches ever delivered in the House, many “years ago, by the late Proctor Knott, of Ken- stucky, who made Duluth famous. . In those days, members of the and “harbors committee -in the House had com- “paratively little information from engineers as >to the need of the proposed expenditures. To- ~ day this is altered. The and harbors committee hes ample and detailed informa- ~tion from engineers of the War Department, swho are authorized in advance to make sur- ~veys of projects and report on bility. * The War Department hus a ;neers, one located in each fhim is.a division engineer. _*of review for rivers and harbors in\Wash- tington, consisting of six engineers of ‘expe- frience.

The criticism is made that ‘it is wrong in princip's to place a lump sum fin the hands of one MNMan, or a corps of men. But the work and responsibility must: be placed somewhere. The money is expended »on specific projects, reported upon by the Schiefe of engineers and approved by Congress. ath Years ago, a member of Congress con- Sferred with the then Secretary of War William JM.

Such expenditures are my. connection with them domestic commerce of the United States. The appropriation of the funds proposed will make it possible to resume many important projects. a An old-timer is one who can remember when only boys would be boys. ap —_—- CHANGING THE CALENDAR. The Senate has adopted the Norris resolu- tion proposing an amendment to the Constitu- tion under which the terms of the President, Vice President and members of Congress would begin in the January following their election. The chief purpose of the amend- ment is to place in power an administration and Congress immediately after their election, instead of permitting a short session of Con- gress consisting in part of members who had been defeated in the preceding November elections, Mr. Norris holds that other advantages would flow from the adoption of the new cal- endar, one of which is the elimination of Sen- ate filibusters. He insists that filibusters are impossible when Congress has no fixed day ot | adjournment. The short sessions ending per- force on March 4 every other year afford op- portunities for filibusters in the closing hours. Mr. Norris states that he has participated in several of these filibusters and. knows all about them. Congress can change the. annual date of its meeting from the first Monday in December, if | it chooses to do so, but it can not by law elim- | inate the “lame duck’’ short session. An amendment of the Constitution is necessary to effect this change. The change is highly de- sirable, on account of the long period which now elapses between election and the seating of members of Congress. It is not seemly that legislators should continue in office after their rejection at the polls, while others} rep- resenting the will of the people, are kept waiting thirteen months before they can take their seats. For comfort’s sake it would be well to hare the date of presidential inaugurations fixed in May or June, but other reasons outweigh con- siderations .of comfort. An inauguration in January would be attended with no worse weather, usually, than that which prevails in | March. | i ' | { | | Many collateral interests would be affected by a change such as that proposed in the Norris resolution, such as the terms of cabi- net members and many minor officials: but such matters could be easily arranged, if the country should conclude to make the change. The presidential term would have to be short- ened or lengthened to adjust itself to the new schedule, and there might be serious objections to either by zealous partisans. The outs would object to the prolongation of a term. and the ins woulg decidedly oppose the short- ening of an incumbent’s tenure of office. in order to effect the change it would have to be agreed upon to take effect in the somewhat distant future, beyond the time when it might affect the interests of present officeholders and expectant officeholders. ——————© Among the good that die young in this hard- boiled age is good manners. ee ea PATROLLING THE BORDERS. No semimilitary body in the world out- ranks the royal. Canadian mounted police in courage and efficiency. The State police of Pennsylvania has long been recognized as one of the most important aids tenance of law in the main- and order in that common- wealth, while the Texas Rangers have af- forded themes for writers of heroic for many years. The youngest organization of the character is the body of husky young men who look after violators of traffic laws in the State of New York, and are known as the State constabulary. The Canadian ‘“‘troopers,’’ besides hunting down ordinary criminals, also look after liquor violators, and in this respect their work differs materially from the work of their colleagues across the border. Since the repeal of the State law of New York under which the Federal and State authorities were supposed to work in harmony for the enforcement of the prohibition laws the constabulary has had little to do -with violators of the Volstead act, and as a con- sequence the rum runners from the Canadian provinces into New York have easy sailing. But the effective work of these mounted police organizations has attracted the atten- tion of the administration, and especially the attention of Gen. Andrews, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, who is trying to enforce the prohibition laws. Gen. Andrews has reached the conclusion that a mounted border patrol foree would be effective in bringing law- breakers to account, and has suggested the immediate creation of such a constabulfry. stories had rather The force would be employed against smug- | glers of narcotics and aliens, as well as rum | runners. It is proposed that this body of mounted police shall be kept on patrol duty along the | Canadian border, from New Brunswick to the | Pacific, and along the Mexican boundary from | the Gulf to Tia Juana. The proposal is to be commended, for if the United States is to stop the smuggling of liquors, drugs aliens the borders must be patrolled by armed men capable of dealing wjth good-sized bodies of desperate criminals. - Intimate friends are people who drop in for the evening every time you plan to go out. PR Be A eas ee NATIONAL CEMETERIES. The United States proposes to spend $483,- 000 for the care of its national cemeteries for the year ending June 30, 1927. Of this sum about $500,000 will be spent in the United States and about $185,000 in Europe. The public is not aware of the large num- ber of military cemeteries, monuments and “war memorials maintained and kept in repair by the government. All of these: require re- pairs and improvements, caretakers and work- | men; roadways must be repaired; headstones must be provided for. This one item will cost about $170,000 for the coming fiscal year. Arlington cemetery, Antietam battlefield cemetery, the national military parks at a 4 ’ is | Fort necessary to make the inland waters naviga- | | ble and in condition to handle the growing | and | ceaselessly | Chickamauga, Chattanooga, Gettysburg, Shi- | loh, Vicksburg, Kansas City and Guilford Court House, and memorials such as the birthplace of Abraham Lincoln, the Meriwether Lewis monument in Tennessee, Fort McHenry, Md., Marion, Fla., ‘soldiers’ monuments in Cuba and China;and the Zachary Taylor burial g£rounds are some ofthe many items that go to swell the costs of’ the nonmilitary activities of the War Department. ” The United States has eight military ceme- teries in Europe—six in France, one in Bel- gium and one in England. There are 30,454 | American interments overseas; of which 1,662 are unknown. In one cemetery in France (the Meuse-Argonne) there are 14,054 interments, of which 455 are unknown. The Brookwood cemetery near London has 457 interments, of which 63 are unknown. The Flanders Field cemetery in Belgium has 336 interments, of which 28 are unknown. Last year more than 4,600 headstones were placed in cemeteries overseas; this year the department is expected to place more than 7,000. When the marking of graves in American military cemeteries in Europe is complete, it will have cost the United States upward of $600,000. Upon each marble or white stone will be inscribed on a crossarm the soldier’s name in full, his rank, unit, division, State and date of death. For'the unknown the in- scription will read: “Here Rests in Honored Glory an American Soldier Known But to God.” No nation on earth has ever given such tributes to its defenders, alive and dead, known and unknown, as those given by the United States. onside : You can sow wild oats at night. but it’s day- light and a crowd is there at reaping time. ee wr RURAL HEALTH CONDITIONS. The statement is made by the hygienic laboratory of the public health Service that of 3,850 counties wholly or in large part rural, only about 280 are provided with health serv- ice under the direction of whole-time local health officers. Thus only about 13 per cent of over 50,000,000 rural people are receiving the public service which offers the greatest net advantages. L. L. Lumsden, surgeon of the hygienic lab- oratory, is authority for the statement that the results of the average cooperative demon- stration indicate that an investment in effi- ciently administered, whole-time, local health service in rural communities will vield a return second to none other obtainable from an equiv- alent investment of public funds. The return, he explaing, is in life saving, disease preven- tion, health.,promotion and conservation of eco- nomic resources. In'some of the projects the return in money alone on the investments can be conservatively estimated, it is said, at more than 1,000 per cent. Within the last 25 years good progress has been made in the establishment of efficient health service in the larger cities of the coun- try, but no more than a fair start has been made in the establishment of such service in rural communities. Health conditions in the rural regions obviously react upon those of the cities. Uncontrolled infection in a rural dis- trict in one State may be spread readily and quickly to both rural or urban communities in other States. It is unfortunate that only a very few of the rural communities are disposed to establish and maintain entirely at their own expense efficient, whole-time local health service. In some instances where the county health depart- ment has. been strictly local, political consid- eration in the appointment of the personnel has militated ‘against the efficiency of the serv- | ice, and it is asserted that many boards of county commissioners are willing to appropri- ate money for the maintenance of local boards only upon condition that assistance be given by some outside agency. In*the hope and the belief of eminent physi- | cians and investigators who have studied the | subject, and who have given assurance that the | average life soon will reach the biblical three | score and ten, the work now going forward in | rural communities is powerfully aiding in im- | proving the national health and well-being. | But the service should be extended to all rural regions. ~-_- --—— —_—_—— © ‘‘Poker is one game that survives without a | Still, need a uniform ae > Correct this sentence: a Ella is coming for a week,’’ she said, “‘and I do hope she brings the three children.”’, —@- --— ‘a uniform,”’ sion. you expres- = +. .

Angus Tolir Rose Emily Winch BTC BMUEP cc cc ccccsccccevesr Mary Carroll Essaie Chase Reginald Mason EMU cc ewewsssscse Eleanor Griffith Carruthers , Harris Tyrell Davis Branden Peters Gilbert Douglas Harris Robert Bennett Srivia Mrs. Philip Speed Oliver Hiart Whenever a newspaper reporter walks on stage, note book in hand, nosing around for what he calls a scoop—a relic of ye old time days in journalism—it is generally known by all these presents that a mystery play is being unfolded. Allene Tupper Wilkes injects an Oriental atmosphere in the thriller night. Another mystery play, ‘‘The Creaking Chair” is infinitely better than many that have gone before; certainly as good as the best. It holds interest from beginning to end; the object, after all, of mys- tery and other plays. Done in the unity of time, action taking place within the proscribed 24 hours, Mrs. Wilkes succeeds in her play with a fair amount of surprises, a goodly Gilda Varesi’s Comedy, “En- quantity of straight forward story telling, sustained suspense, -mini- mum of inaction, and a respectable motive. There is some plausibility to the plot notwithstanding the fact that it looks so “‘sill,”’ as the come- dians now say. Since the setting is in England. a Scotland Yards detective and his dumb assistant, . English parts of the boob sleuths in ‘The Gorilla’”’ are permitted to gambol on and off the green of a respect- able home in Hertfordshire. To match them, there are a butler and maid, two of the outstanding come- dy parts of the year, and played to perfection by E. Ek. Clive and Miss Beatrice Miller. There shall be no attempt here to delve into the mysterious story that hides under “The Creaking Chair.’’ It needs only the testi- mony of a first-night audience that sat spellbound from beginning to end. Reliable authority has it that London took the play to its heart; that it won favor in Boston and other New England cities. Now on its way to Broadway, it looks as if the American theatrical metropolis, minus a mystery play for some time, is about to get another thrill. JOHN J. DALY.

The show is not new to ‘Washington, the theater-going public having seen it three years ago and again during the week of January 31. This is a brilliant comedy by Gilda Varesi. The entire play takes place in the living room of an | apartment hotel in the main city of the Bay State. Ruth Harrison as Madame takes the audience by storm. Some good acting on the part of Parker Fennely goes over big.

The cast included Mildred Meneau, Thomas Herbert, Mortimer Moore- house, Ann French, Leona Roberts, Arthur Rhodes, Ruth Russell and John Schellhaas. The story concerns a wealthy club- man who is tired of following his prima donna wife around Europe playing nursemaid to her dogs.

SEES nv DISARMAMENT See SO _ Baltimore, Ma., ep. 15 (By A. P.).—Confidence in the fairness of the decisions of the world court and in the belief that the English, speaking nations most powerful influence for the reign of the law as against the reign of force, was expressed in an address here tonight by the Brit- ish Ambassador, Sir Esme Howard, for the English-speaking Union of Baltimore. The members of the world court, the Ambassador said, are set up high above ordinary human preju- dices and failings, with the knowl- edge that the eyes of the world are on :them. They know also, he added, that decisions clearly con- trary to established law or to the principles of equity would sooner or later bring their court into com- plete discredit and produce its own end. “Therefore,” he said, “if for no other reason, I am convinced that they will do their best to settle in- ternational disputes submitted to them on a basis of law and of equity without fear or favor, and looking only to the honor and dig- nity of their court.” The Ambassador said thé world might be a long way from the state of mind when it would be uni- versally accepted that law should take the place of force and for that reason anything like complete dis- armament was as vet impossible. ‘But we of the English-speaking unions must always keep before us,’’ he said, ‘‘that the coming of the reign of law depends largely on the English-speaking peoples. If they, among themselves, can not set the example of adherence to the reign of law, when there is so much to bring us together and so little to keep us apart, how can we expect others to adhere to it? It is for us then to do all to cultivate the proper mentality in ourselves and by our example induce others to cultivate it.’’ SUICIDE PREVENTION BY M’CORMACK DENIED New York, Feb. D. W.

Bernard H. Sandler, Miss Rambeau, attorney for who was mentioned in the-divorce suit of Mrs. Kevitt Manton, had said that McCormack saved Miss Rambeau from commit- ting suicide in Paris last year. The actress, Mr. Sandler said, dis- heartened by gossip that had linked her name with that of Manton, drank poison. Mr. McCormack had an appointment with her that day and when he arrived with Dan Me- Sweeney, his manager, he found the actress unconscious.

He watched the operna- tion of the latest plan in Sixteenth street and expressed approval, say- ing it solved their problem for them. COUNTESS’ COUNSEL CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE. Pauline Clark, representatives the Civil Liberties union, denied admission ‘to the hearing. Labor Department officials Plained that eyesterday’s hearing) dealt solely with legal questions on ithe ruling of New York immigra- tion officials against the countess and that other questions are apart from the case. Satisfied With Craven's Flight. The hearing began shortly after 2 o’clock and lasted an hour and a half. Before it starteg the Labor Department had ordered the arrest of the Earl of Craven upon the re-| quest of New York immigration of- ficials. After it was learned that the earl had fled to Canada, Assis- tant Secretary R. C. White said the purpose of the order, which was to get him out of the country, had been served. The fugitive noble- man is still liable to arrest under the warrant for an investigation on deportation charges. The proposed appeal of Countess Catheart’s counsel to Secretary Davis in case the recommendation of the board of review to Assistant Secretary White is adverse to their client, is based on their under- Standing that the Secretary of Labor has the right to waive or modify the recommendation. After questioning the legality of their client’s deportation, Countess Cathcart’s lawyers contended that it came under a. discretionary pro- vision, and that Congress had in- nded the statute to shut out the inal classes and not men and women who had been guilty of vio- lating their mdrital relations, even by aqultery, as disclosed by civil ac- tion..Yecords abraad. Call Department No Censor. Denial that Congress intended to set up the Labor Department as a censor of international sex morals or ‘fa radio of foreign scandal’’ was made. It was charged that the depart- ment had failed to give Countess Cathcart warnings, which prosecut- ing attorneys usually. give meanest criminals when. arrested and charged with crime. Arguments by Attorney De Ford closed with a protest against the ultimate entry of an order of de- portation against the woman that “will penalize her for her candor, make morality a menace, justice a Satire and government a joke.”’ Representatives of the Woman’s Party who were barred from the hearing were informed by depart- ment officials that the hearing dealt with Countess Cathcart with the Earl of Craven. This was explained to them after they ha4! protested against the double stand ard of morality feature which they saw in the case. Representatives of the party also protested against the moral censor- ship shown in the action. Countess’ Fiance Denies Detention Publicity Move (Special Cable wee enon ) London, Feb. 1 “TI deny from the bottom of my heart that Lady Cathcart’s detention was engineered as a publicity stunt,’’ Ralph Neal, the piaywright and novelist, fiance of Countess Cathcart, told the cor- respondent in an exclusive inter- view today. “I wish to keep out of all the per- | sonalities and do not think this af- 5.— ‘of spite,’’ he continued, | pertinently, “Tl would like to know iif Lady Catheart is the only di- vorced woman who ever tried to en- ter America? “But then, I am sure, the action of the authorities does not express the attitude of the American na- tion. It is a silly law and has placed Lady Catheart in a most difficult situation, which she has borne with the greatest dignity She never should have been allowed to go thousands of miles if she were not to be allowed to land.” The Evening Standard received a cable from the countess saving: “Despite all my misfortune I am still grateful for two things: First, that I am still an English- woman, and, second, that I pave not lost my sense of humor.’’ 1926, the and aske tonight (Copyright. by Chicago Tribune.)

The Earl came to Montreal to avoid possible arrest by United States immigration officials on grounds of ‘‘moral tur- pitude.”’ The prospect of having to wait here did not please the earl. The idea of “shivering up here’ when he might be motoring in tropical Bermuda, irritated him. Desirous though he was to re- turn to his cottage at Bermuda, the earl exhibited no desire to enter the United States. His wish is to leave by a Canadian port, to avoid any contact with United States immigra- tion officials, for whom he has no great love.

More than a quarter of a million Dodge Brothers Motor Cars were built and sold, yet demand was far in excess of production—and continues to mount. To meet this world-wide need for a smart and de- pendable motor car, Dodge Brothers, Inc. have recently completed a *10,000,000 program of expan- sion, vastly increasing production and lowering the cost of manufacture. Remarkable new machine equipment has also been installed further reducing costs and perfecting quality. As a result Dodge Brothers, Inc. were enabled on January 7th, to announce a schedule of prices that has revolutionized all previous standards of motor car value. Prices all the more impressive because they apply to a dependable and trusted product made still better in many vital respects— Engine operation incredibly smooth and quiet. Instant engine response and elasticity. Stylish new bodies finished in rich and dis- tinctive colors. Exceptional driving vision. And the most important advance in steel body con- struction since Dodge Brothers pioneered in building the first all-steel body. 8 Dupont Circle Touring Car Roadster Coupe Sedan $872 $871 $924 $979 Delivered SEMMES MOTOR COMPANY RAPHAEL SEMMES, President Main 6660 1707 14th St. DopDGeE BROTHERS MOTOR CARS

HOW TO EXTERMINATE RATS OME of the measures proposed iS by Hovell for the control of rats are as follows: very one must be held responsi- | ble for the rats on his premises land they must be killed at his ex- ense if he does not have them de | stroyed. If a man is fined for hav- ling an abundance of rats on his 'premises and for making no effort ,to get rid of them the fine should 'be heavy enough to stimulate ac- tion. The keeping of efficient rat dogs Should be encouraged. An animal! Heense fee should not be required | for rat dogs. | All -rats should be driven from \rat holes and holes closed. An open ‘rat hole should signifly rat occupa- tion and be treated accordingly. |: Buildings can be kept free from lrats. Rat-proof construction makes | easier the job of keeping rats out of 'a building. can not be depended rid badly infested On such premises Poisoning to entirely } premises of rats. it is advantageous to use poison to greatly decrease the rat population and then to finish the job with othe: measures. Hovell gives effective formulas and detailed instructions for the preparation and use poisons. | Rat campaigns ought to be waged simultaneously in every city town and village and in the sui rounding country. Rats should be ously. After of fought continu premises have been | Cleared of rats, traps should be kept in position all the time to catch rats as they begin to reinvade the prem- ises. The openings by which rates en- ter premises should be stopped. Wherever an opening is left, traps Should be kept set along the run- way, leading from such openings. Rats run along fences and walls, and ‘along routes that are under cover. Traps should be located in accordance with thé above facts. The jaw or steel traps with a four inch blade are best. The best wire traps are those with openings on at least two sides—the openings clos- ing after the rat gets into the trap. As a rule, traps are most effective when set in a dark place and under cover. if dark places are construct- ed for traps the cover should have openings plainly in view on two o1 more sides. A rat will not enter a place unless he can see one or more holes out of which he can go. ‘Rats have a very acute nose. They will not touch bait, or poison. or a trap if they smell the scent of manonthem. Above all, traps and poison must not, be handled with the bare hands or with gloves. Use pieces of clean cloth or leaves. YOU MAY BOWL. Mrs. C. H. writes: 1. Would you please tell me if bowling three or four games harms a woman who is pregnant two months? 2.

GRAND JURY IGNORES | j HOMICIDE CHARGES Recent Automobile Accidents, Causing Deaths, Passed Over by Inquest. NEGLIGENCE NOT SHOWN The grand jury yesterday estab-| lished a record by ignoring charges of homicide against as | many persons in connection with recent automobile accidents. While the records do not show the exact reason for such action, itis known that there was not suffi- cient evidence in any one of the cases to show criminal negli- gence or the wanton and reckless disregard of human life as required | by law. It is also known that the traffic authorities, in insisting on} criminal prosecutions, fail to take | into consideration the elements of | contributory negligence on the part}! of the persons killed. The follow-| ing cases are the ones ignored: Robert H Riddick, colored, truck k ‘Mrs. Annie 421 Fourth streéet north- February 2, at Nineteenth and Florida avenue north- five | siruc west, west.

Forty days of rain in 60 Can not come under the heading of “acts of God’’ in a government con- tract, Comptroller General McCar] has decided in refusing to refund $475 to the Cunningham Construc- tion Co. The company had a contract: to build a barrack building at Langley field, Va., was 31 days late in com- pleting the work and was penalized. In its appeal to McCarl, the com- pany blamed the delay on 40 days of rain in two months, and held that this circumstance came under the ‘‘acts of God” clause in the con- tract. McCarl, in denying this, said that the 40 days of rain was a ‘‘com- natural event’’ and was part of the general hazard assumed by the contractor.

NEW BLANTON BILL IS GIVEN APPROVAL District Heads Oppose Traffic Director’s Jurisdiction Over Street Cars, However. The District commissioners yes- terday approved, with modifica- tions, the new Blanton bill to amend the traffic act, which omits greater powers and increased sal- ary for the director of traffic. Authority to suspend automobile drivers’ permits ‘‘for any cause which may be deemed sufficient,” is included in the bill. The com- missioners suggested ae further provision that the traffic director be permitted to suspend permits pending hearing in cases he deems sufficiently grave. The commissioners dissented from that provision of the Dill whjch would give the traffic di- rector jurisdiction over move- ments of street cars. They said they thought that should remain with the public utilities commis- sion. Many Chemists Work For U. S.

OLO STRUCTURE BLAME! FOR ESCAPES AT FORT oe One of Humphreys Fugitives Captured in Alexandria Railroad Yards. | THREE OTHERS MISSING The fact that an abandoned tem- porary structure is the only avail- able guard house is largely the rea- son fer four soldier prisoners being able to saw their way to liberty at Fort Humphreys, Va., Sunday night, Maj. Douglas L. Weart, ex- ecutive officer of the fort, said last night. Joseph Adams, one of the four escaped prisoners, was captured by soldiers from the fort in the Alex- andria railroad yards yesterday. He was returned to the reservation and placed under a strict guard. The search for James R. Blake, Frank Smith and Frank L. Kriner con- tinued last night. It being Sunday, the prisoners were occupying a common room that evening when they escaped. The room is on the first floor of one of the temporary wooden structures built for the fort during the world war. The soldiers cut a hole inthe floor with the blade of a hacksaw which they had in possession by means not yet established. Then they crawled under the buildings and escaped wearing khaki-colored fatigue uniforms with mackinaws and hats. Maj. Weart declared that officials had been unable to find any com- plicity between the escaped prison- ers and the guard and that it did not appear that an investigation by post officials will be needed further. ‘“*‘We have been forced to use the old temporary structure here, and it their way out,’’ he said. had permanent structures of prisoners escaping.’’ WOMAN SUFFOCATED, CORONER'S JURY SAYS Killed by Unknown Person, Is Underwood & Vederweod.
