(By the Associated Press.) | The Crown Prince and Princess of Sweden were kept on the move throughout the first full day of their visit to the Capital by a con- tinuous round of activities, which gave them an insight into social, political and scientific phases of American life. After breakfast at the Swedish legation, they went to the National museum, then to the Capitol to watch Congress function.

At the National museum the royal couple bent studiously over glass cases filled with curios, rang- ing from American, Mexican and European antiquities, sandstone slabs marked by fossil footprints, to gigantic skeletons of prehistoric reptiles, mastodons and numerous paleontological specimens. “What a pity!’’ the prince said, as his escorts finally persuaded him to leave the museum. He was re- luctant to go without seeing more of its wonders, which were of par- ticular interest to him because of his own archeological researches. While viewing the exhibits at the museum, the prince recalled that he once on a scientific exploration trip in Europe had met Dr. William Henry Holmes, an anthropologist, and director of the National Gal- lery of Art. He insisted that he be taken to the doctor’s office and there he conversed with him eager- ly for a while.

The constabulary casualties were one killed and eight wounded. Advices from Lanao province say the constabulary expects to wipe out all Moro forts in the Tugaya region, possibly by tomorrow. Prior to today in the present week, more than 60 outlaws had been killed.

P.).— The story of how three boys had been. arrested as they were prepar- ing to carry away a treasure of $220,000 from an abandoned house was told today in Yorkville court. The house in which the treasure was found was that of the aged spinster sisters, Beatrice and Helen Herwog. Ten years ago they left it to take up residence in a hotel. With its furniture gathering dust, the old mansion stood empty, and tales of mystery were told about it. Wednesday night a passerby no- ticed a light in an upstairs window. Police were notified. They searched the house. In a closet they found hiding a very scared boy. A shot was fired. Two other boys ap- peared, trembling. On the floor police found, heaped together, gold and silver, jewels and. heirlooms valued at $200,000. In one of a dozen trunks that had been broken open they found $20,- 000 in currency and gold. On the boys they found $26 in small change. The boys, George Bagliero, Rocco Giamarino and Matthew Mazello were held without bail for exami- nation. Police testified they found the front door of the mansion had been ‘“‘jimmied.”’ Michael J. Moran. caretaker of the mansion, told the magistrate it was not likely the sisters would ap- pear against the boys, as they had never left their apartment in the Park Avenue hotel since taking up residence there ten years ago. 22 Brazilians Killed By Munitions Blast Sao Paulo, Brazil, May 28 (By A.

TORTURE OF ONE DENIED STOLEN QUESTION “FOR EXAMINATIONS - RESOLD ATW. pans at Last Minute | _ Leads to Change in Final Tests. and beyond, but the identity of the HONOR COMMITTEE WILL MAKE INQUIRY Few Bought Papers, Says President Lewis; Other Stu- dents Reported Affair. ‘ { An aleventh-howr discovery that stolen examination questions were being soid on the campus at George Washington university led to a quick change in the final examina- tions and a ferment of excitement among the students. yesterday. William Mather Lewis, president of George Washington, announced last night that he had assigned the university's “honor committee” to make an investigation. One student was reported to have paid $15 for a copy of the examina- tion questions. Others purchased them for as little as $2, it was said. Copies of the questions were stolen from the room in which they had been mimeographed and dupli- cate copies soon were being offered for sale on the campus. The per- sons who were selling them, how- babes made. the mistake of soliciting ‘the wrong students. These latter, disgusted by what was going on, sometee the story to their profes- | i New Questions Compiled. A meeting of the faculty was called, and it was decided to submit entirely new questions to the stu- dents. -There was not sufficient time to mimeograph the questions, so it was necessary for the profes- sors to write them on the black- board. Among the classes affected -bhy the “‘leak’’ were those in political science, English, psychology and Spanish. Some of the examina- tions were held Thursday evening, but it could not be learned whether it was possible for any of the stu- dents. who took them to have gained possession of the stolen questions. President Lewis said last night that the leak was cxtremely ‘‘un- fortunate.’’ Few Purchased. “It was a poor investment, how- ever, for those who purchased the papers,’’ he said. “I am told that only a small group bought the pa- pers, and I am happy to know that a large number would not counte- mance such conduct. When the faculty was apprised of the matter, we did the obvious thing, entirely changed the examinations.”’ Prof. John R. Lapham heads the “honor committee” that is now in- vestigating the leak. The other members are aj] teachers. The committee will seek to find out who stole the papers and, if possible, who purchased them. Dismissal from the university will be the fate of those who are caught.

COURT AUDITOR CALLS DOUBLE FEES ILLEGAL Davis Says Commissioner Kept Self-Bonding Prac- tice From His Attention. A threatened physical clash be- tween Frank J. Hogan, chief ra fense counsel, and Representative | Blanton, of Texas, coupled bsg | emphatic testimony of Audit bert L. Davis of the platetet ce preme Court against Commissioner | Fenning, marked the hearing of the commissioner’s case before the House judiciary subcommittee yes- terday. Mr. Davis’ testimony was on the self-bonding phase of the commis- | sioner’s guardianship practice by which, after charging the ward for | RESOURCES ARMAMENTS a bond to insure service on the part of Mr. Fenning in acting as his guardian, Mr. Fenning receives a £5 per cent commission for selling himself the bond. Since the investigations develop- ed the practice, Mr. Davis has ruled that it constituted double commis- sions in violation of the law and tice Siddons. Double commissions—he con- mitted by the local court before he took office in 1915, -he testified. Two weeks afterward there came to his attention an item in one of Mr. Fenning’s reports of a com- mission on a loan which he had made of his ward’s money. Then and there he put his foot down on double commissions, he _ testified, and was upheld by the court. Says Fenning Covered Up. Since that time he had assumed, Mr. Davis testified, that all attor- neys and fiduciaries practicing be- fore the court Knew its attitude. Practitioners had frequently called to his attention, informally and otherwise, cases about which there might be question, he said, but never did Mr. Fenning say anything about his self-bonding practice, and there was nothing in the accounts he filed by which Davis could be expected to detect it. Representative St. George Tuck- er, of Virginia, former president of the American Bar association, said: “You were opposed to the prac- tice because it is in violation of the law, weren’t you, Mr. Auditor?” ‘‘As I construe it,’”’ replied Mr. Davis. Mr. Hogan, on cross examination, sought to develop that Mr. Fenning had “brought’’ the loan commission phase back in 1915 to his attention, but Mr. Davis said it came to his attention merely through Mr. Fen- (CONTINUED ON PAGE 4, COLUMN 2.)

The fundamentalist ticket. spon- sored by the Bible union which has held two night meetings of protest after convention sessions, was pre- sented by the Rev. H. H.

Sharp conflict of opinion has de- | veloped between the Shipping' Board and the Senate interstate commerce committee. The latter body yesterday, by a vote of 8 to 7, adopted a resolution holding that the sale by the board of the United States Admiral Oriental Line to the Dollar interests was ‘contrary to the best interests of the merchant marine on the Pacific.’’ This reso- lution was presented by Chairman Jones. Shortly afterward Senators Jones and McNary went to the White House and presented the resolution to the President. They asked that he acquaint the board with the ac- tion of the committee and once more protested the action of the board. President Coolidge summoned Chairman O’Connor and Commis- sioner Walsh to the executive of- fices to discuss the matter. The Chairman, it was later stated on authority, took the position that the transaction was a closed incident and that it could not be set aside. | President to Fill Vacancy.

COLVER DIES AT HOME HERE Editor-in-Chief of Scripps-Howard Newspa- pers Ill Several Months. William B. Colver, former chair- man of the Federal Trade Commis- sion and until a year ago editor-in- chief of the Scripps-Howard news- papers, died at his residence, 3308 Eighteenth street northwest, yester- day afternoon after several months’ illness. Mr. Colver was born in Welling- ton, Ohio, in 1870, and studied law at Ohio State university. He prac- ticed two years in Cleveland and Sandusky before entering newspa- per work. He was a close friend and co-worker of Tom Johnson when the latter was mayor of Cleve- land.. He served on the staff of the Cleveland Press and as New York and Washington correspondent of the Scripps-McRae League, then be- coming editor of the Newspaper En- terprise association. Resigning that position in 1912 to become editor-in-chief of the Clover Leaf newspapers in Minnesota and Nebraska, Mr. Colver remained in that capacity until appointed to the Federal Trade Commission. In 1919 he organized the Scripps-Howard newspaper alliance and served as |general director of the Scripps-How- ard newspapers until his retirement from active work in 1924. Surviv- ing him are his wife, a daughter (and a brother, Dr. Binton Colver, Mich. Kohen Makes Appeal To Decorate Graves Charles Kohen, chairman of the G. A.

Commissioner Mead holds that all past dues must be paid or payment secured by proper notes while the farmers claim al) payments should be deferred until a reclassification feature of the re- cent omnibus water bill providing for downward readjustment of about $23,000,000 on construction and other charges levied against nineteen western projects, is made.

Today, telegrams of protest from Nebraska leaders were wired to President Coolidge, Secretary Work and Commissioner Mead. The North Platte valley project comprises almost 200,000 acres of land lying on both sides of the North Platte river and extending from Lingle, Wyo., to North Port, Nebr., a region approximately 150 miles long and 20 miles wide. Confident of Settlement. (By the Associated Press. ) Confidence was expressed at the White House yesterday that turbulent situation in the North North Platte irrigation district in- volving use of water would be ad- justed to give the government an opportunity to furnish water to set- tlers and provide a way of making payments. BEER SALES ALLEGED ON GERMAN CRUISER ‘Dry Agents at Los Angeles Make Charge; Embassy to Get Complaint. (By the Associated Press.) Attention of the German embassy probably will be called today by the State Department to charges from Federal prohibition enforcement of- ficilals in the Los Angeles area that beer containing more than one-half of one per cent of alcohol has been sold aboard the German cruiser, Hamburg, now in San Pedro har- bor. A report from the district attor- ney in Los Angeles reciting the evi- dence in the hands of the govern- ment on which the charge against the Hamburg is based was forward- ed yesterday by the Department of Justice to the State Department, where it was understood that a communication to the embassy was being drafted. It was generally assumed that no steps are contemplated by the Washington government beyond reference of the matter to the em- bassy for such action as the Ger- man authorities may deem it neces- “isary to take.

London, May 28 (By A. P.).-- By the strange irony of fate, Lieut. Comdr. Richard E. Byrd, none the pole and back, has come to London, only to catch a cold. He full of energy, however, and /north pole, ‘covering land. fully satisfied himself as to that, he will begin to work on another alr- plane expedition to Lieut. Comdr. Byrd told the As- sociated Press correspondent that jhe was more convinced than ever. ‘after his pole flight,’ that unex- ‘plored lands exist somewhere be- tween Ellsmere island and Axel Heiberg island and Alaska. He reached these conclusions after istudying the currents and condi- itions generally during his recent flight. He said he might make his next north pole flight in 1927, but the date of his south pole expedi- | tion is indefinite. Supreme Thrill of Trip. Asked what was the greatest ‘thrill of the flight, Byrd replied: ‘Well, it was not what most per- sons might imagine. It was not after we had taken our calculations showing we had reached the pole, | haseeched to devote o nor when Bennett and I shook hands warmly over our accomplish- ments; nor was it when we landed back after ‘completing the flight. The truth is that the supreme thrill of my caréer came when we took off from Spitzbergen and I real- ized that at last I was bound for |the pole, sure as fate. It was more ithan a thrill—it was a tingling, shriveling sensation throughout imy body that I won’t ever forget.” | Commander Byrd's plane started with 9,400 pounds dead weight, and this, he said, convinced him there was a future for aviation commer- cially and for exploration purposes, which today was difficult for most ' persons to realize. Byrd arrived in London during the warmest spell of the spring, but a slight cold and the English heat have not daunted him in the least. He has been up and going nearly ‘every hour since he got here, but | has endeavored to avoid all at- ‘tempts to lionize him.

Atlantic City, N. J., May 28 (By A. P.).—The “Louisville rebellion” against majority control within the General Federation of Women’s Clubs was put down officially by the federation board in an execu- tive meeting. The board unanimous- ly decided that a resolution of the Louisville delegation asking that this policy be rescinded was not an ‘emergency measure,” and therefore could not be considered at this convention. Mrs. Allee Dickson, of Paris, Ky., State president. opposed the surrectionists,’’ asserting that their stand did not represent Kentucky sentiment, which, she said, had been expressed in indorsement of the presidential policy as passed last year at the West Baden council.

The exchange grew warmer, Mr. Hogan asserting, ‘‘You can’t make me sit down, Mr. Blanton,’’ and the Texan demanding the chair make Mr. Hogan treat him courteously.

Subsequently, Alfred B. Gawler, of the firm of Joseph B.

Different Answers. When he wrote Mr. Fenning, he testified, he forwarded a copy to Commissioner Rudolph. He re- ceived prompt answers from them both and in the same mail. The one from Mr. Rudolph said that the case would undoubtedly be brought to the attention of the board of commissioners by Mr. Fenning. The one from Mr. Fenning said briefly the case ‘is closed.’’ Mr. Blanton not having gone to the right place at the courthouse. Mr. Davis, the auditor, testified that the account had been filed May 17 and had been in the clerk’s office. Dr. Fowler’s testimony related to the so-called Gilbert bill of the last session requiring physicians to report the names of persons having certain diseases. About a month before he became commissioner, Mr. Fenning as at- torney representing the District Medical association, appeared be- fore the commissioners with a del- egationo of physicians protesting against furnishing the names, as a result, and after Corporation Coun- sel Stephens, had given an opinion the commissioners directed Dr Fowler not to enforce the provi- Mrs. Mary Berg, of a small town | near New London, Conn., who was | disinherited by her lunatic son ini ders to Dr. Fowler were canceled | a will prepared by Mr. Fenning, and only her attorney, ofthe | New London, testified at the morn-| Fowler testified he thought the law | Charles H.

MODIFIED DOCTRINE even more concrete the fundamen-| Lynch Again Leads OF FAITH REPORTED TO PRESBYTERINS ———— Committee’s Fundamentalist Stand Is Tempered by Modernism. — ————— | ASSEMBLY IS SILENT ON DIVISION OF BELIEF Baltimore, May 28 (By A. P.).— Neiteration of fundamentalist doc- trine, tempered slightly by modern- ism, comprised the body of the report of the committee of 15 pre- sented to the 138th general as- sembly of the Presbyterian Church in the United States of America to- day. The main points of division have been a strict interpretation of the virgin birth, the resurrection in body and in spirit, and different ideas regarding the observance of the Westminster articles of faith, which modernists have held might be observed better by the applica- tion of present day modern view- points. **No Second Party,’’ Says Report. Recognizing that in some reli- Zions there is a tendency to ridicule | the Bible, considering it only tradi-| tional literature, the committee came the nearest to treating the’ modernist cause. “As far as the commission has'| heen able to learn,’’ it reported, | “there is in the Presbyterian | Church no second party such as | has been described.”’ | No comment was forthcoming! from the assemBly, the delegates. sitting quietly for more than an hour while the Rev. Henry C. Swearingen, of St. Paul, read the report in full. Discussion was de- ferred until Monday. The completion of the reading of the report brought widespread ap- plause and a standing ovation last- ing three minutes, in which both fundamentalists and conservatives joined. An overture which would make, | ' talist foundation of the church was offered today by the presbytery of Tulsa, and referred to the commit- tee of polity for a report. The resolutions observed that “whereas there has developed an unrest in the Presbyterian Church U. 8. A.,”’ it sought to_oppose any change in the constitution § that would permit any presbytery ‘‘to li. cense, or ordain a candidate to preach, who can not unqualifiedly subscribe to the truthfulness of the doctrines taught In the New Testament, and interpreted in the Westminters confession of faith,’ concerning the birth, date and res- urrection of Jesus Christ. Objection to *Ludicrous." The first break in the placidity of the convention occurred Jate to-| was taken to day when objection a paragraph in the report of the Alliance of Reformed Churches, re- ferring to the Scopes evolution trial as a “ludicrous’’ example. This was taken as a refiection on William Jennings Bryan, who prosecuted the trial. Another deletion was made im- mediately afterward when the fol- lowing sentence also was stricken | out: ‘Does it not excite indignation, even at this distant date, that Eu- rope was largely lost to Protestant- ism, through trivial squabbles over points of minor importance?” A speech from the floor reminded the convention that Presbyterian confession of faith arose from one: of these “‘minor squabbles.”’ The resolution which received the | loudest commendation was the one allowing delegates $4 per day for expenses. This sum exceeded any previously voted in addition to mileage. Use of H ymns Permitted By United Presbyterians Sharon, Pa., May 28 (By A. P.}). Permission for the use of a combi- nation psalter-hymnal, by congre- gations of the United Presbyterian Church, was granted by the gen- eral assembly in session here today. Psalms previously had been used exclusively by the church for its song service. Vigorous debate preceded the authorization which came after the assembly, by a vote of 151 to 61, refused to refer the matter to the various presbyteries for a vote.

During 1925 there were made and sent out 6,429,998 checks carrying an aggregate of $226,634,205 in payment of pen- sions, annuities, refunds and fees of ex- amining surgeons. The net loss to the pension roll in the last fiscal year was 13,002. The roll of the civil war soldier pensioners was reduced by 20,182 and the civil war widow pensioners by 11,943.

The United States is not the only country in which the drift of the population is toward the cities and towns and away from the farms. France is feeling the effect of the call of the city upon its agricultural population. M. Henri Michel, who has been engaged for some time upon a survey of the rural situation in the republic, finds that the farms of France are being rapidly depopulated, and that the acre- age under cultivation and the amount of live stock have diminished during the last ten years. In,1913 there were 6,540,000 hectares of French soil growing wheat. In 1924 this acre- age had diminished 1,200,000 hectares, ap- proximately 6,000,000 acres. The number of horses fell from 3,223,000 in the former year to 848,000 in 1924, and during the decade the number of cattle fell from 42,000,000 to 28,- 000,000, while the number of sheep was dimin- ished by 6,000,000 head. There is no doubt, says M. Michel, that the war was in a measure responsible, and that the loss in the number of horses is due in part to the general use of the automobile, but the principal cause in the loss of animals is the abandonment of so many of the farms of France. The department of Lot- et-Garonne, for instance, shows a loss of 28,000 of the rural inhabitants and the departments of Gers and Lot of more than 30,000. These farmers have been attracted by the better liv- ing conditions in the cities. : M. Michel, like some American statesmen, wants parliament to do something to improve the conditions of the French agriculturist, but he naively says: “Unfortunately parliament hardly rushes business of which it should at- tend to. Parliament makes speeches.’’ Where- in the French chamber bears a remarkable re- semblance to some of the legislative bodies on this side of the Atlantic. —— =e et? eS aes SETTING THE PACE. Are Americans living at too rapid a pace? Coincident with the finding of the body of a young man who drowned himself in the Severn river after he had inflicted injuries upon his father which led to the latter’s death, there appeared the statement that the number of insane persons in Maryland in the last fifteen years has increased more than 52 per cent. This shows a startling growth in the number of mentally incompetent in proportion to the increase in population in the same period, which was 16 per cent. There is little doubt that the Baltimore parricide was insane. The Monumental City, however, is probably not an exception among American municipalities. If, for instance, Chicago or New York authorities were to publish statistics, these would show that the percentage of insane persons in the two largest cities of the United States is greater than in Baltimore. The frank statement of Dr. Arthur P. Her- ring, Maryland State commissioner of mental hygiene, is nevertheless alarming. Dr. Herring does not pretend to assign a reason for the increase in insanity in Maryland. It can not be attributed to any definite cause. Specialists in the treatment of mental diseases, it is claimed, have not made as great progress as scientists who have been studying other dis- eases such as diabetes, Bright’s disease, and high blood pressure, all of which are in a fair way of being conquered. At the same time it is gratifying and encouraging to note the most recent reports that paresis, which is respon- sible, it is said, for more inmates in insane asylums than any other mental disease, is yielding to science. It is a question, however, whether Ameri- cans should not slow up a bit instead of reck- lessly trying to “set the pace’’ for the rest of the world. The Worst Story I Heard Today—By Will Rogers | J The Worst Joke I heard today was told to me by Clarence Badger, the Morte Director for Famous Players, in California. Clarence used to divect me when I was in the ‘“‘uncontrollable Photographs.” I think he and I were asso- clated with each other longer than any one, as we made 14 straight Pictures. Clarence had an: Actor working in one of his Pietures. It was the second one he had worked in. He thought he would set the world on fire wit hthe first one. So one morn- ing he come to the Studio with a Pair of Field Glasses slung over his shoulders. They all asked him ‘“‘What’s the big idea? Do you think you are going to the races?’’ ‘‘No,”’ re- plied the Comic Actor. ‘I was at the Theater last night, having a look at our last Picture, and I took these along to try and find my name ou the Bills.”’ (Copyright, 1926, the McNaught Sradtcate, logs fe The | 259 Spanish war widow pensions. | 1790 to the end of the fiscal year | | 1925, the government has paid out approxi- | mately $7,053,502,000 in pensions arising out | of all the wars and causes resulting from wars | ms a a!

From that headland he overlooks the tawny reaches of slowly moving brgwn water where the Mississippi marches toward the Gulf. Not far away is the opening in the cliff which leads to ‘Tom Sawyer’s Cave.’ Now, these dream lads of his who loafed and loitered and floated on the river's bosom have he gone blind, deaf and dumb until Capt.

The first of these facts has been proven in Prof. R. H. Gault, of Northwestern university. Books have been written about the second, but it can not be claimed that the proof is on a _ scientific basis. It is the sensory nerves which tell us what is going on in the world about us. The special senses are: sight, hearing, taste, and smell. There is another group of sensa- tions, such as muscle sense and bal- ance and a number of othets. Then there come the different variations of touch, including touch, tempera- ture, and pain. Theoretically, each of these sen- Where is not suitable, letters will be per- limitations and where a stamped, Evans will not make diagnosis or Requests for such service can not be What he is now working on is methods of teaching deaf mutes and semimutes to hear through the skin on a, practical basis. Methods of helping out lip reading by training in skin hearing methods of listen- ing to and interpreting music through the skin-hearing appar- atus; methods of training the skin hearing to do things which, for millions of generations, it has not done. These are very different problems from showing that the skin can hear. To’put a thing ona practical working basis is a more difficult matter than merely prov- ing its possibility. COLD WATER. F.

OU will think that I am forever y harping on the subject of keep- ing the skin clean. That is likely true; but it is quite worth while if the repetition makes the highly important point remembered. Cleanliness is the first law of beauty. There are, of course, many excellent creams and lotions for this purpose on the market, but they are often used too carelessly. Just as important as putting them on is taking them off. Any cleans- ing preparation should be thor- oughly wiped off, so that it takes with it every bit of grime. No grease should ever be left in the pores, to clog them and attract more dirt. The habit of using the same towel or cloth time after time to remove make-up is not only the opposite of fastidious but it can be very in- jurious. If a cloth is used, it must be a freshly laundered one always. Better than a towel, which can easily be a germ-carrier, are the paper cleansing tissues.

I’m sure she will have the story nearly finish- t strew humblest way. Yet few remember joys of yester- day. I hear the grumblers, fretted by a task. And wonder what it is from life they’d ask.

P.).— Margarete von Hindenburg, daugh- ter-in-law of the president, has made good as the acting first lady of the land, in the opinion of Ber- lin’s society leaders. The presi- dential palace has become the cen- ter of the capital’s social life. Young Frau von Hindenburg, nee Baroness von Marenholtz, has acted as hostess at more functions during the first year of the soldier-presi- dent’s administration than Frau Ebert did during the more than five years of her husband’s presi- dency. Besides assisting at Hin- denburg’s social functions, Mar- garete von Hindenburg also holds a weekly reception of her own. the | By Anne Singleton.

That 'is the dignified position for them to take. On the other hand, if they invite their guest’s friends to their house those friends should certain- ly invite them in return. Another frequent question is about the way to direct answers to invitations when three or four people have chosen to give a party together. The answering letter should include the names of all the party givers, for the guest presum- ably accepts joint hospitality; but the envelope may be directed to the person she knows among. the hostesses, unless the invitations carry some particular information on the subject. This, apparently, they do not always do, but it would certainly make things easier if they would. The custom of joining to- gether for the giving of parties is not very usual in cosmopolitan places.

P.).— Sophie Tucker, Marie Dressler and others who sing ‘‘Nobody Loves a Fat Girl’’ will hereafter find dress parades in London organized es- pecially for women whom nature has not given the figures fashion- plate artists are so fond of painting. ‘“Plump’’ mannequins are now greatly in demand in London to dis- play ‘‘outsize’’ gowns, and there is & general scramble for the trade of women who have not banted them- selves down to feather weight. Muriel Barnby, the actress, is among lecturers engaged to discuss the fashion problems of women who wear “‘outsizes.”’ School of Mechanics For Women Approved Constantinople, May 28 (By A. P.).—Turkish feminism has taken another leap forward with the de- cision of the automobile mechanics school at Constantinople to open a branch for women. This decision was the result of multitudinous re- quests of women to become chauf- feurs and automobile mechanics. The minister of hygiene and educa- tion approved.

You have no quar- relg with any one and nobody has any with you. It is a re- lief after a protracted cali of this sort to encounter a tempest. This column’s peace- ful existence, which has been of considerabie duration, has been upset by a squall. The following letter is sufficient evidence that somebody is angry at what has been said: ‘“T have read your obnoxi- ous and unwarranted com- ment of recent date. I refer to the article published in The Washington Post, under the title: ‘In the Press Box With Baxter.’ By it you have displayed a willingness to be- tray private conversation. Pos- sibly, with your compelling sense of arrogance. such a matter becomes a prerogative. *‘At this late date, your con- descension to advise the ar- biters where and where not to stand, during the progress of a contest, reflects the singu- larly strange incident that you have failed to enlighten the profession with your superla- tive wisdom years ago. More- over, if in your viewnoint the attitude of being ‘gallant to ladies,’ is a misdemeanor, it is less difficult for me to under- stand your despicable make- up. “A sense of humor, which you. claim by inference, is de- sired and may be an asset, but none can deny that a sense of fairness is more vital to the well being of any man, and un- deniably closer to the ideal. Mr. Baxter, would it be ill-timed to remind you that there is a vast and weary span between preju- dice and sportsmanship? My American clean and you say as 20 years in the league, have been unquestioned. Cnn much for yourself? A scrupu- lous writer dignifies himself above the indulgence of per- sonalities and rancor in the public prints. we & yY who has lost faith in himself. Certainly, if vour malicious attack is jus- tified you might decently ex- plain the motive. Construc- tive criticism is always wel- come, but there is dearth of wholesomeness in your meth- od. My career as a player and umpire has taught me that all efforts are futile if they lack honesty of purpose. Is this simple philosophy too humble for your adoption? Umpiring as a profession has been kind to me, if for no other reason than that it has taught me an abiding patience. By virtue of that quality, I have learned to be lenient with ‘an individual of your ilk. OU impress me one as “Fairness is an admirable quality, because it breeds sportsmanship. A ditch-digger may possess it, but unfortunate- ly, he has comparatively little opportunity to show it. My first impression was that you, considering your advantages, possessed it to a praiseworthy degree. You are now aware of my disillusionment. » S one grows. older, A one usually becomes more discriminate in the choice of his companions, but where there is no estab- lished bond of friendship, is it too much to expect common courtesy from a stranger?

Much of this faith in Harvard’s chances is based on the strength the Crimson wil show in the mile and two- mile rans, events in which no qualifying testa were held. Favorites had little trouble guali- ‘fying, but there were several up-| isets.

California received another ‘setback when her crack pole vaulter, Fill, failed to clear the bar at the qualifying height of 12 feet. Sensational times were recorded in most of the trials, particularly in the sprints, with Hank Russell, Cornell captain, flashing speed that heightens his chances of scoring a double victory tomorrow. He won his 100-yard heat, pulled up, in 0:09 9-10, and coasted down the 220-yard straightway in 0:21 7-10. Norton, of Yale, who won his 100- yard heat in 0:09 4-5, looks to be Russell’s most formidable rival in the shorter sprint.

EW YORK, May 28.—There N was not enough hitting by the Yankees today to sustain their winning streak, and the winning streak broke at sixteen straight. Which, broken or not, Is a noble performance. The breaking at the hands of the Athletics who have now beaten the Yankees five straight—-was in the nature of a compound fracture. ihe Y's twice, The A’s beat 2 to 1, and 6 to 6.

Dykes flied out and French singled to right and sent ' Simmons to third. Galloway grounded to Koenig, whose.. throw to Lazzeri forced French.’ French went into sécond in such a way as to prevent Lazzeri. from throwing to first for an’ easy double play, and Simmons, in consequence, tallied.

Hoyt tried to sacrifice and fouled to Coehrane. Koenig singled to center, sweet and clean, but Gazella acted as if he thought there was a chance to catch the ball or was badly coached, or some thing.

Punctuated only by an occasional mild reaction the movement of prices on the Washington Stock Ex- change yesterday was in a forward direction, with the main body of etocks touching new high levels for the week. Washington Railway & Electric preferred opening unchanged at 88%, sold to the extent of 30 shares at that level, picked up % on a 10- share turnover, and gained to 89% on closing sale of 10 shares.

Capital Traction was in excellent demand with the first lot selling at 103%, when it parted with the 4% and other transactions totaling 61 shares were recorded at 103. Wash- ington Gas Light began the day at 681%, but early lost the fraction and all but 8 shares were sold at 68, with a turnover of 76 shares for the session.

Private dispatches from Detroit to Wall street state negotiations looking to a merger of Edmunds & Jones and the Hall Lamp Co. were said to be progressing to a point where there was some prospect of a deal being consummated. It is ten- tatively proposed to give sharehold- ers of Edmunds & Jones three shares of new stock and $5 in cash for each present share. Hall Lamp holders would receive one share of new stock and $2.50 a share in cash. Other motor lamp companies have been mentioned in the deal.

Wall Street Is Optimistic Served at Great Falls Inn , On Eve of Triple Holiday : By S. S. FONTAINE. New York, May 28.—When the railroads begin ‘to order steel rails in great volume it is usually an indication that seasonal hesitation in the steel industry is at an end. It was announced to- day that the Southern Pacific had bought 25,000 tons of steel rails mee? between Colorado Fuel and ennessee Coal & Iron. Chesapeake & Ohio ordered 12,000 tons of rails from Illinois Steel, 12,000 tons frycm Inland Steel, and 6,000 tons trom ithiehem Steel. Wall street went away for a @eiple holiday in a rather optimistic mood. The market has been in- creasingly strong all week and commissions have begun to reach up to the overhead. Brokers, how- ever, have not been making ex- penses on many days since the March winds blew the bull market away. The street never prospers on a bear market, as only'a few houses get the professional business which is the backbone of these periods of reaction. The general expectation is that the upward movement will extend throughout the summer in some divisions of the market, and an oil and copper boom is generally predicted, and many forecasters gay that if business improves and erops are good a buil movement of substantial proportions may be <.:- pected in the fall, although it will probably not reach the extravagant »roportions of the last great up- ward swing. es * * * » Texas Gulf Sulphur was one of | | the great features of the day and there are intimations that possibly the directors may declare an extra dividend, since this prosperous cor- poration makes a practice of limit- ing the cash {t carries in assets. At present it has about $5,000,000 in cash on hand. It was pointed out today that the Newmont Mines, which is a William Boyce Thompson property, will receiye close to $1,- 000,000 in dividends from holdings of Texas’ Gulf Sulphur. This is sufficient to pay the entire dividend for the year. we * = % Bank clearings continue.to tell a tale of prosperity. The volume ex- ceeds that of a year. ago, though the margin of increase this week is smaller than was the case last week. Leading cities of the United! States report a total of $8,421,893,- 000, according tu Dun’s review ae week, which is 1 per cent more! than the amount for the correspond-, ing week of 1926, whereas the gain. last week was 2. 4 per cent. With clearings of $3,322,893,000, the centers outside of New York show: a gain of 4.7 per cent, while the | New York city figure, $5,099,000 = 000, discloses a decrease of 1.2 per cent. Increases predominated | at the cities included in the state-' ment, the largest gain being at/| soston, Louisville, Dallas, Detroit, Los Angeles, Seattle and Portland, | Ore. For May to date average dafly' bank clearings are 0.6 per cent in excess of the average for a similar period of last year. (Copyright, lyz6.)

CONTEMPLATED SITES IN VICINITY OF MALL No Time to Be Lost in Com- pleting Remainder of Pro- gram, It Is Stated. A $2,000,000 archives building will inaugurate the District gov- ernment building program, it was announced yesterday following the joint meeting of the public build- ings and fine arts commissions, by Senator Smoot, chairman of the first-named body, who also said that the contemplated site could not be made known. Decision to: start with this build- ing is prompted by need of a place to store government records, there- by affording greater floor space for already congested government buildings and lessening the fire risk in them. Program to Be Completed. The building will hold all gov- ernment records except those not required in departments for daily reference. No time will be lost in arranging the remainder of the building program. Contemplated sites are said to be southwest of the Postoffice Depart- ment building and between Four- teenth and Fifteenth streets, and Pennsylvania avenue and B streets northwest. The Supreme Court, internal revenue and agricultural buildings probably will be considered at the next meeting, at which the fine arts commission will again be repre- sented.

The amount involved totals $44,000, which represents the value of the securities owned by customers of Redmond & Co. which were hy- pothecated by Brown. -He opened an account with another brokerage house with the stolen securities as collateral, the record shows, in the attempt to make a fortune for himself. Cus- tomers of Redmond & Co. complain- ed of their losses in the summer of 1922 and the losses were traced to Brown. He was tried on a tenth in- dictment but was acquitted. He was remanded for sentence next week.

NEW DEVIGE PROPOSED FOR WEIGHING THUGKa Col. Moller Asks Cooperation of Weights Officials in Test- ing Apparatus. ' EASIER WORK EXPECTED Col. I. C. Moller, of the District traffic bureau, requested the coop- eration of weights and measures of ficials in testing a new device for weighing trucks suspected of being overloaded in the streets at the closing session of the national con- ference on weights and measures yesterday at the Raleigh hotel. The damage caused to the streets by overloaded trucks has made it imperative that some method be in- vented which would obviate the ne- cessity of driving the trucks to some place to be weighed, he said. The trucks may be driven on this new device and weighed with little trouble. The front trucks are first weighed and then the rear. The de- vice operates on the hydrostatic principle. Col. Moller said that with a trained crew he had weighed 800 trucks in ten hours on it. He asked the cooperation of the officials in testing the new devicc in order to determine whether prose- cutions can be based on its find- ings. The front and rear indica- tions are added to obtain the total weight. The device will be studied, and if determined to be accurate may be placed in general use, it is said. MAJ. HESSE EXPLAINS NEW TRAFFIC RULES Tells Police Autos Must Stop When Street Cars Load ~ and Unload. Maj. Edwin B. tendent of police, yesterday issucda a@ memorandum to. officers and members of his department explain- ing the traffic amendments requir- ing automobiles to stop when street cars load and unload passengers.

AMENDMENT PROPOSED TO GHANGE POOL PLAN Smaller Bathing Places for Colored Must Be Sanc- tioned by Congress. NEW SITES ANNOUNCED The decision of the fine arts com- mission and office of public build- ings and public parks to substitute &@ program of several sites: for smaller bathing pools for colored persons instead of a single large pool as arranged by congressional appropriation, probably will neces- sitate an amendment permitting this, it was announced yesterday. Efforts will be made to arrange smaller pools out of the appropria- tion permitting the two large ones, sites for which have caused pro- tests, and it is thought by the com- missioners that Congress, having seen the wisdom of the smaller pool plan, will arrange for more of them later. While smaller pools for both white and colored bathers in vari- ous parts of the city are favored, no change in the original site for the white beach to be located near the tourist camp in East Potomac park has been considered. Latest sites favored for smaller pools for negroes in place of the originally proposed site in Section C, Anacostia park, now definitely out of the plan, are near Howard university and Fredmen’s hospital, Twenty-sixth and B streets near the municipal golf course, and ‘‘a cen- trally located site in the southwest section.’’ PHILIP C.

Stevenson, pastor, officiated, while Mrs. Allan Story, sister of the bride, was matron of honor, and George P. Jarvis, of Elmira, N. Y., acted as best man. .

Myer Are on Routes. Having developed the motor bus as a factor in the transportation system of Washington and sold his holding in. the Washington Rapid Transit Co. at a considerable profit, Leon Arnold has turned to Vir- ginia and begun the operation of a new suburban passenger bus sys- tem. The new system consists of four lines, three of which run from Georgetown to Ballston, via Clare endon, Va., to Lee Heights via Cherrydale, Va., and to Fort Myer and the Arlington National ceme- tery. The fourth leaves from Eighth street and Pennsylvania avenue northwest and runs to the Congressional Country club, in Maryland. Operating nine de luxe safety coaches, the company, known as the Washington, Virginia and Mary- land Coach Co., is maintaining a, ten-minute schedule on its lines during rush hours and a fifteen~ minute schedule at other hours of the day. Offices in Clarendon. Headquarters of the new com-~ pany have been established in Clar~ endon, Va., and its officers, in ad- dition to Leon Arnold, president, are Joseph Arnold, vice president, and H. H. England, secretary and treasurer. A pledge of still better service than that which made the Washe ington Rapid Transit Co.’s lines so successful was promised residents of Washington and its Virginia suburbs in & statement made public yesterday by Arnold. ‘There is to be no expense or ef- fort spared to make our service everything that could be desired within reason,” he said. ‘In the purchase of our coaches we have made the safety and comfort of our passengers the first consideration beside which everything else, in- cluding the cost of coach and ita maintenance and operation, are of secondary importance. ‘** *Arnold-operated motor busses’ has come to mean to the people of Washington more than an ordinary motor bus service. It means safety, comfort, courtesy, efficiency ang service. Is Developing Rapidly. ‘“‘Nearby Virginia is developing rapidly and the many fine homes which have been and are being built along our routes makes cert@in that the immediate future will see a larg- er number of comfortable and beau-« tiful coaches operating on our lines, ‘“‘Not only will our company bene fit from the development in Arling- ton county, but the entire county will benefit from the better trans- portation which will be afforded by our system. Realty values are cer- tain to be enhanced through a good and pleasing transportation service. “The parade of our buses through downtown Washington Thursday was not a mere stunt to attract at- tention, but an effort to let the people see just what kind of buses we are operating for their service. The motto of our company is: ‘The public first, now and always,’ and this motto will be expressed in con- crete action in good service.’’ Morse Fraud Case Will Be Tried Soon government against Charles W.
