CONTROL IS PLANNED SIMILAR TO RAILROAD Commissioner Esch, of |.C.C.., Will Open Inquiry at Chi- cago Tomorrow. Following is the first of a series of articles by William P. Helm, jr. on “Measuring the New Transporta- tion Giant.”” The second article will appear tomorrow, By WILLIAM P. HELM, Jr. A’ new day in regulating trans- portation in the United States will date from tomorrow. At that time the Federal government will begin to take the measure of the new gi ant in the transportation field——the motor bus and truck-——with a view to putting on the nation’s law books such measures as will direct this voung giant's great capacity to serve along channels that will be of greatest public benefit. Under recent direction of the In- terstate Commerce Commission one of its members, Commissioner Esch, who is one of the two men who wrote the present law swing around the United States to gather facts and figures concerning the parts which the motor bus and the motor truck now play on the stage of American transporta- tion. He will delve into a_ task whose vital truths are now virtually unknown. He will attempt to sur- vey, plot and chart the tangled web of transportation lines thrown over the country by these two new agencies of transportation. Save that the motor bus has sped from factory to highway in swarms during the past few years, and that the motor truck is now delivering the goods by hundreds of thousands of tons daily where the railroads used to do the job half a dozen years ago, little is definitely known. So rapidly has this newest trans- portation agency glided into favor that it is wholly unregulated today in 12 States and only partly regulated in 27 others.

Bewilder- ed railroad executives stormed, swore-—and adopted both bus and truck as step-children to the pas- senger coach and freight’ car. Today 61 railroads in the United States and Canada are using motor trucks to supplement their shipping service and have converted the truck from a hot competitor to a helpful friend. Twenty-one steam roads after watching the motor bus decimate their short-haul passenger traffic, put on their own motor buses and 18 other steam roads not now using them are considering their installation. Electric lines, hard hit at first by motor bus competition, were quick to adopt the new agency as their own. The rails have come up from more than 2,000 miles of city streets during the past few years and on those thoroughfares the trolley car has been replaced by the (CONTINUED ON PAGE 2 COLUMN 17.) & Two Circus Peformers Are Dashed 60 Feet | Chicago, July 25 (By A.

P.).— The Sultan of Morocco thinks it’s hotter in France than in his own country. Mulai Youssef admits that is the only grievance he has against France, saying: “It is too ab- normally hot; I never felt such heat in Morocco.” Oddly enough, the thermome- ter never rose above 90 since the arrival in France of the Moroc- can ruler, while 100 is a regular thing in his domain. Concerning Abd-el-Krim, Mu- lai Youssef is inclined to belittle the importance of the Riffian chief. “He is just a rebel, like hun- dreds of others,” the sultan said, “but he has repented. I am unaware what decision has been taken as to his fate, but I trust it will be dictated by mercy and lofty sentiments.”’ JA BUT REGAINED IN TEXAS — + ee Attorney General Is Ahead of Mrs. Ferguson by 108,862 Votes. REPRESENTATIVES LEAD Dallas, Tex., July 25 (By A. P.). Miriam A. woman gov- ernor of Texas, seeking renomina- in Ferguson, the Democratic gubernato- rial primary, today was trailing Dan Moody, youthful attorney gen- eral, by 108,862 votes, when 238 of the 252 counties in Texas, includ- ing 56 complete, had reported to the Texas election bureau. Moody also had a majority of the vote, which is necessary for nomina- tion. Moody’s vote was 338,957 and Mrs. Ferguson’s 250,095. Lynch Davidson, Houston lumberman, was | third with 100,846. Other candi- | dates in the race polled an almost! negligible vote. Mrs. Edith Will-. iams, of Dallas, had 3,685, and Mrs. | K. M. Johnston, 1,861. Unless Moody holds a wmajor- ity a run-off primary will be held August 28 between the two highest candidates. Texas election bureau officials es- timated that the total vote yester- day in the Democratic primary would be between 660,000 and 700,- 000. Moody started out with a major- ity over al] others in the race with the first returns last night and held it until midnight. Interest was attached today to the statement at the opening of Mrs. Ferguson’s campaign to the ef- fect that if Moody led her by 1 vote she would resign, provided Moody would agree to resign his position (CONTINUED ON PAGE 2, COLUMN 6.) EARTHQUAKE SHAKES SAN JOAQUIN VALLEY Dishes Rattle or Are Hurled Off Shelves in Series of Distinct Tremors. Fresno, Calif., July 25 (By A. P.).—A series of distinct earth tremors Which rattled dishes, crack- ed plaster, shook chimneys, and in some instances shook dishes off shelves, was reported throughout the central San Joaquin valley of California about 10 a. m. today. No damage was done. Hundreds of persons here report- ed feeling the shocks, and like re- ports were received by the Fresno Morning Republican from Madera, Clovis, Kerman, San Joaquin, Men- dota, Los Banos, Chowichilla, Livingston, Reedley and other mid- San Joaquin valley towns. A slight shock also was felt at Sacramento. Earthquake shocks were record- ed on seismographs of the Univer- sity of Santa Clara and Lick ob- servatory near San Jose. The dis- turbance was described as local. Alimony Prisoner Free After 2 Years Fairfield, Iowa, July 25 (By A.

POINCARE CABINET NAD UNLY a DAYG TO RAISE BIG OUM Heavy Payments Falling Due in the Month Must Be Met. FORCED LOAN, HIGHER TAXES ARE DISCUSSED Ministers Assemble to Find That Treasury Situation Is Worse Than Painted. 9 Paris, July 25 (By A. P.),—Pre- mier Poincare is faced with the her- culean task of raising from 4,000,- 000,000 to 5,000,000,000 francs within the next his ministers in cabinet council to- day to talk it over. The premier’s plans have not yet 30 days. He met but one thing ap- : siti | pears certain—‘‘France must con- sent to new sacrifices.’’ M. Poincare made no secret of his opposition to foreign credits, if they can be avoided, and admitted that the situation of the treasury, as drawn by M. De Monzie, the finance minister, Wednesday, was only a pale reflection of the actual state of affairs. High Points Discussed. The ministers deferred announcing what they intended to do in the way of financial redemption of the franc, but discussed among them- selves several important points— first, no moratomMum for national defense or short-term treasury bonds; second, no funding; third, no advance from the Bank of France on the 1926 taxes. The financial projects will not be definitely drafted until Tuesday morning, and will be deferred to the finance committee immediately after their introduction in the chamber on that:day. M. Poincare will urge that they must be voted before August 8. An increase in taxes, both direct and indirect, and a forced loan are regarded as forming the basis of the new government’s plans. It is known that the question of a forced loan was discussed at the cabinet council today, but its application appears difficult. Many of the min- isters pointed out that the experi- ences along this line attempted by other countries were discouraging. Heavy Payments Due. The payments which the Poin- care ministry must meet before August 25 are very heavy. They include 500,000,000 francs July 31 for salaries of state employes; 68,- 00,000, interest on treasury bonds on August 15, and on August 16, 235,000,000 francs, interest on 5 per cent rentes. Ten million dol- lars is due the United States on August 1, and £3,000,000 is due Great Britain between August 18 and 25. The cabinet is convinced that the payments falling due within a month can be met without further inflation. Special inducements will be ex- tended to taxpayers settling their 1926 taxes before the elapse of 60 days. The entire French press com- ments at length on the expressions of satisfaction with which the new cabinet has been received by the United States, Great Britain, Italy, Spain and Germany. New York Decorating Co. Not Place Raided The Post was in error yesterday when it stated that the police liquor squad raided the New York Deco- rating Co., 512 G street northwest. It has been learned that the raid was conducted in an apartment above the firm’s offices and that the police consider that the decorating establishment was in no way in- volved. Henry A. Jaffe, proprietor of the firm, said that the persons in the raided apartment had _ been given notice to move before the raid. Lightning Hits Plane In Flight, Killing 4 London, July 25 (By A.

French people find this spectacle, which is renewed every day, an offensive one, and they ios not wrong.”’ 60 MEN POUND DURKIN FOR INSULT TO WOMAN Murderers’ Row Prisoners Form Ring; Fists Fly So Fast Slayer Can’t See Them. Many er FACE IS BADLY BATTERED Chicago, July 25 (By A. P.).— In the bull pen of ‘‘murderers’ row” in the county jail today, 68 prison- ers formed a ring inside which Mar- tin J. Durkin, sheik gunman, facing a penitentiary sentence for the mur- der of a Federal agent, was severely beaten for making insulting re- marks about a woman. When guards arrived, Durkin’s face was severely battered but none would say who did it. The attack upon Durkin, an in- vestigation disclosed, was not by one man but was a concerted assault by the body of prisoners. Durkin was not able to identify his assailants. “The fists flew so fast,’’ he said, ‘that I was pot able to see who hit me.”’ Jail officials described the assault as the method used by the prisoners in punishing a fellow prisoner who was “in bad’’ with them, while Dur- kin told the officials that he had made an insulting remark about the sweetheart of one of the prisoners, British to Drop 20 Ships on Navy List London, July 25 (By A.

In the absence of the church pas- tor on a vacation, the sermon was by the Rev. Ernst Louis Waltz, of the mission chapel of the First Presbyterian church of Brooklyn. For dinner, the President and Mrs. Coolidge had as their guests at White Pine Camp some of the newspaper correspondents who have accompanied them to _ the Adirondacks, as well as Mr. Wil- bur, who arrived yesterday for the week-end and will leave tomorrow for Seattle where he will join the United States fleet for a cruise. Franklin’s Lightning Rods Are Replaced London, July 25 (By A. P.).— New lightning rods are being in- stalled on St. Paul's’ cathedral, which Benjamin Franklin originally equipped with lightning conductors. In 1770 he was in England negotiat- ing in connection with the diffi- culties England was having with her American colonies, which were be- coming very restless and it was at this time he helped to install the conductors. The original rods on the famous cathedral were fron, and the en- gineers who are now adjusting cop- per rods have a fragment of the original iron conductors, which the American devised. | BISHOPS OF MEXICO OTOP ALL SERVICED: WITHDRAW PRIESTS Churches to Stay Open: People Called Upon to Fast and Pray.

P.).— All in Catholic churches throughout Mexico requir- ing the offices of priests will be sus- pended after July 31 by order of the Catholic episcopate, which has addressed a pastoral Catholics of Mexico. The letter, signed bishop of Mexico, Mora y Del Rio, the seven other archbishops and 29 bishops, pro- tests against the new religious reg- ulations promulgated by the Mexi- can government, and proclaims the various penalties which may be im- posed against those of the Catholic faith who are responsible for the new laws or who aid in putting them into effect. Among these penalties is excom- munication of those who issue laws, regulations or decrees against the rights and liberty of the church, those who prevent the exercise of religious jurisdiction, and those who usurp ecclesiastic property.

It is declared by the episcopate, in protesting against the govern- mental decree, that work will be carried on for amendment of this decree and the antireligious provi- sions of the constitution, and that the clergy will not desist until it is attained, The letter was issued in agree- ment with the expressed views of Pope Pius XI. The pastoral letter begins: ‘His holiness Pope Pius has been pro- foundly moved by the religious per- secution which for some time has been unchained in Mexico, and even before the heinous recrudescence of the last few months his holiness in his last apostolic letter, February 2, spoke of the iniquity of the de- crees and laws which had been sanc- tioned by statesmen enemies of the church against Catholics in Mexico. ‘In that letter Pope Pius re- called that his predecessor, Benedict XV, rejected the same character of Mexican laws and Pope Pius in his February letter repeated and rati- fied Benedict’s repudiation of such Mexican laws.”’ After thus reviewing the Pope’s attitude the letter continues: ‘Since 1917, when we (the Mexican epis- pocate) raised our voice in protest to his holiness Benedict XV, until the present time our conduct has always been of prudent silence, be- cause the Mexican antireligious (CONTINUED OD} PAGE 5, COLUMN 5.)

ANTISALOONISTS SEE ENFORCEMENT HURT } Some Suggest Government | Take Steps to Prevent Balloting on Law. By ALBERT W.

Other States are to follow, either by vote of their legislatures or by petitions of citi- zens. In cases where the national referendum on amending the eighteenth amendment modify- ing the Volstead act can be had, the States will vote for this in some instances, while in cases where the legal machinery makes this impossible the States will vote on the question of maintaining or modifying State prohibition en- forcement laws in order to enable each State to decide what consti- tutes “intoxicating in fact’’ res specting alcoholic liquors. are taken or Authority is Issue. What action the national govern- ment can take to offset the effect of the prospective State referendum 48 already a matter of conjecture here. The State of New York, for ex- ample, has passed a special act of its legislature for the holding of a referendum this fall. Voters will be asked to vote ‘‘yes” or ‘“‘no” upon the question of taking from the Federal government the matter of deciding whether or not each State shall have prohibition or control of sale. The voters will be asked to decide whether this power should or should not be returned to the several States. providing Thus, the people of New York are to pass judgment on the question of whether in their State prohibition under Federal control should or should not he wiped cut. Admittedly this is the most drastic antiprohibition pro- gram suggested in any State so far and the consensus is that the New York vote will be overwhelmingly for State control. In Wisconsin, a special act of the legislature has provided already for areferendum whereby the voters will vote “‘yes” or “no” no” upon the following question: “Do you favor amending or repealing the Volstead act?’ In Missouri, Colorado, California, Montana and Illinois the voters will vote on the question of the repeal of the prohibition law. In each of these States referendums are _ brought about by obtaining a required num- ber of signatures to a petition. In each of the States the necessary sig- natures have been obtained and filed with the secretary of state. Thus. the referendum automatically comes into force despite the vigorous oppo- sition of dry leaders in these States. ight to Continue. In Nevada, where there is no State prohibition law, a national referendum upon the subject of pro- hibition has been called for by a resolution of the State legislature. The question put to the voters of this State will be: “Do you favor a nation-wide ref- erendum to ascertain whether the present prohibition law should be repealed or continued?” This brings the number. of States which are scheduled to hold wet and dry referendums up to eight. The Antisaloon league openly has opposed the holding ‘of any of these referendums and the Association Against the Prohibi- tion Amendment has fought vigor- ously to see that the test votes were brought about. This battle has been waged in Wisconsin, Missourf, Colorado, California, Montana and Nevada. The same sort of battle has gone on in New York and IIli- nois. As November approaches the contest between the two rival or- ganizations will continue with ue abated intensity. Those who hope to prevent the referendum idea from spreading to to his death.

The origina] treaty expires on August 20, but has been extended to next year. Every dog has his day, and Jiggs. famous mascot of.the Quantico ma- rines, is having his. Taken with an lattack of stomach trouble at the marine base recently, he was rushed by airplane to Bolling field and thence by auto to the dog hospital of Dr. H. A. Locke, 1432 Irving street northwest. “Jiggs ate too much,’’ Dr. Locke said yesterday. ‘‘He has a lot of friends at Quantico and he proba- bly fed from one mess kit too many. ‘He's getting along fine and will be back with days.”’ Jiggs is a 77-year-old English bull- dog and is an exceptionally fine specimen of his kind. He weighs about 75 pounds and is so ugly he is handsome. He is good natured, too. The marines are in despair over his illness and each day make inquiries as to his condition. In his new quarters Jiggs is housed in a modern marble and tile kennel with glass doors and a real bed inside. He is let out every morning into a side yard to exercise with the other ‘‘patients.’’ Heis on the marines in a few Sweeping Sale a diet now.

Bennett, a civilian employe of the police woman's bureau, refused to testify against her husband, Policeman Bennett, when he was arraigned before the trial board last week on a charge of conduct unbecoming an officer, Inspector William G. Stott has complained to Assistant Super- |intendent of Police Charles Evans, |it was learned last night. Police- |man Bennett was vindicated by the trial board. Stott based his complaint on the grounds that Mrs. Bennett, as an attache of the woman’s bureau, failed to cooperate with the branch of the police department with which she is connected.

It has been hoped, too, that Senator Borah will find it possible, in connection with his coming speaking tour, to speak in some of the States where the State referendum has become an acute issue. See Enforcement in Peril. The drys fear that the people of the country and especially the people in particular interested States will misinterpret the sig- nificance of the wet and dry votes, in case the modificationists should be in the majority. In New York, for example, it is believed that the people generally will expect Federal control of prohibition in that State to become a dead letter, if the voters overwhelmingly vote in favor of letting the State exercise con- , it is feared, would further weaken the slender threads by which prohibition enforcement is made possible in certain parts of the Empire State. And as the government admits its inability to enforce prohibition without cooperation of the States, l the effect of the referendum may be to weaken greatly and jeopardize further any semblance at prohibi- tion enforcement in so-called wet states. |Battle Is Fought In Crowded Cell Cell No. 4 in the Fourth pre- cinct station house was the scene of a battle yesterday when two prisoners engaged in a fist-fight following a heated argument. The station house was overcrowded with prisoners, housing 34 men and women, 25 of whom were charged with intoxication. Welford Jones. 56 years old. of Kings county, Va., and Phillip Saunders, 26 years old, 102 B street northwest, charged with in- toxication, were said to be the battlers. The police account stated that the elder man suffered a scratched face, while Saunders bruised his knuckles. Both were quartered in separate cells follow- ing the fight. FIRE STATIONS SOON FOR BETHESDA, MD. $31,000 of $35,000 Needed at Hand; Board Named to Select Sites. With more than $31,000 of the $35,000 necessary to establish fire protection for Bethesda, Md., and vicinity, already subscribed and the remainder virtually assured, the committee in charge of raising the money is going ahead with plans for the establishment of fire stations in that section of Mont- gomery county. W. W. Bride, of Edgemoor, chairman of the committee, has announced that the fire board, which will have charge of the loca- tion of the new stations, has been named, and Maj. R. B. Lawrence, secretary of the Montgomery Coun- ty Federation of Civic associations, which sponsored the movement, says that there is no doubt about the completion of the fund, as many residents of Battery Park and Edgemoor have promised to increase their subscriptions if nec- essary. The stations will be located so as to afford the utmost possible protection to Bethesda, Alta Vista, Woodmont, Battery Park, Edge- moor, Somerset, Friendship Heights, certain sections of West Chevy Chase, and other communities in that section of the county. Chevy Chase district No. 2 voted to estab- lish its own fire department and will not be included in the Bethesda district. owe ROOMOR LONG DISTANCE MOVERS CRATE AND PACK BY 1313 YOU STREET, N.W.

ASSERTS NATION ASKS ONLY PORTION OF DEBTS Reviews Evidences Abroad of Enmity Being Held for America. (By the Associated Press: ) Europe is ‘‘united in but one thing, hatred of the United States,” Senator Hiram Johnson (Republi- can), California, declared in a statement yesterday, urging that “without delay we withdraw our proposal for entry’’ into the world court. Despite this ‘‘hatred of the United States,’’ which the senator laid to the debt question, he de- clared, ‘‘a part of our citizenship is so blind, so weak and flabby, that they would take this hated creditor nation into a world court dominated by its hating debtors.”’ “It comes to us from various sources that our reservations will be accepted by no great nations of Europe, but three small nations have acquiesced in them. We may be saved from ourselves by those who hate us most; but it would be infinitely better, with the knowl- edge existing in the State Depart- ment today, and with the knowl- edge that has been conveyed to our people by the daily news dispatches, that without delay we withdraw our proposal for entry.”’ Cites Press Attitude. “The greatest of the English newspapers,” he continued, “are denouncing us without stint; the French press is ablaze in its bitter. ness against us; the Italian papers emulate those of other countries in applying opprobrious epithets to us. One of them shrieks at us: ‘*But there is one thing to be remembered outside of Europe in the world, there is Asia—and in Asia there is Japan.’ “Well dressed crowds of French- men in the streets of Paris hiss and hoot and mob Americans. “In our leading international newspaper, the New York Times, we read from its Paris correspon4d- ent who always voices the foreign view, that what is occurring has the potentiality of trouble. Only Portion Sought. “The United States is the pariah among nations openly accused of being a money bag and a shylock, hated and despised by all. And ap- parently the cause of it all is be- cause the United States is seeking to collect a portion, and only a small portion, of the promissory notes given to the United States by foreign nations. ‘‘We have just learned from Mr. Mellon for the first time that in the case of Italy we forgave all the money we loaned during the war and collected but half of that loaned after the war, and we learned this despite the fact that until now Mr. Mellon and his spokesmen in and out of the Congress insisted we were collecting every dollar of the principal due us.” Meyer Davis Hearing To Be Held Tonight The twice-postponed preliminary hearing of Meyer Davis, cafe and orchestra owner, Washington, on charges of manslaughter and reck- less Criving in connection with the death of Bernard Booker, Phila- delphia lawyer, in an automobile ac- cident on the Washington-Balti- more boulevard at Riverdale sev- eral weeks ago, will be held tonight at 7:30 o’clock in the office of Con- stable Tnomas H.

John Phoenix, colored, 27 years old, of 2624% I street northwest, was stabbed, probably fatally, last night, police say, in an altercation at Twenty-seventh and K streets northeast, participated in by five colored men. Ernest Gattling, col- ored, 13 years old, said by police to have Inflicted the wound, is being held tn the Third precinct police station. The altercation began when Gatt- ling and _ three companions, his brother, William Gattling, of the same address; Frank Coates, 27 years old, 2637 I street, and Phoe- nix, witnessed an alleged “hit-and- run” accident. They pursued and attacked George W. Comax, color- ed, 28 years old, of 2415 H street northwest. In the course of the al- tercation Phoenix and Gattling were cut. They were treated at Emer- gency hospital. Police reserves from the Third precinct and Headquarters Detec- tive John Fowler responded to a riot call.

AMERICAN BUSINES AT TOP PEAK IN 1028, DEPARTMENT HOLDS: Levels Reached Reported ia! Even Higher Than in Ab- normal War Years. GREATER EFFICIENCY HELD BASIC REASON Improvement Included Farm- ing; Steadiness General, Says Commerce Review. (By the Associated Press.) Industrial and commercial activ- ity of the United States during the calendar year 1925 ‘‘reached the highest levels ever attained in our history, not even excepting the years of abnormal war activity,” says the Commerce Department Yearbook, made public yesterday. “‘Nevertheless, apart from heavy speculation in the securities market,’’ a summary of the book declares, ‘‘the year was not one of credit inflation or boom psychol- ogy.’ The great expansion, when con- sidering the industrial and commer- cial business as a whole, was de- scribed as having “‘represented the continuance of conditions scarcely interrupted since the middle of 1922,’’ and the basic reason given was the ‘increasing efficiency of in- dustry and commerce.”’ Better in Agriculture. Discussing agriculture, the book declares that while some branches have not yet recovered from the in- jury wrought from the great slump in prices of farm products in 1920 and 1921, the situation in general during the past two years “has been more satisfactory than before, and on the whole the year 1925 wit- nessed some improvement as com- pared with 1924.” Particularly characteristic of 1925 business, the book asserts, was its steadiness throughout the year. Discussing manufacturing and mining, it says that the small loss in ground caused by a tem- porary recession in the summer of 1924 was more than recovered last year, when manufacturing increased in volume to 10% per cent and min- ing production increased 5 per cent over the preceding year. “From a broad point of view,’’ it continues, ‘‘the most impressive fact with regard to the recent history of American industry is its constantly advancing efficiency. Production Exceeds Employment. ‘Recent careful calculations in- dicate that whereas the number of wage earners in our factories in- creased about 27 per cent between 1914 and 1923, the output—in terms of quantitative volume and not in money value-——increased by at least 60 per cent. In other words, production per wage earner em- ployed advanced by approximately one-fourth, “The principal immediate factors contributing are greater efficiency of the wage earners themselves, im- proved management, more scientific methods and waste elimination, and greater use of capital as an aid to human effort.’’ Due to a higher. return on a number of farm products, an extra- ordinary rise in rubber prices and considerable advances in certain other important commodities, the average all-commodity wholesale price index for the year was placed 6 per cent higher than in 1924. Retail Prices Higher. Retail food prices, following the course of farm products, averaged about 8 per cent higher, while the general cost of living index, repre- senting retail prices of commodities entering into general consumption, was 3 per cent higher. Save for the fact that part of the great increase in value of imports in 1925 was due to “unreasonable price advances brought about by foreign governmental control of commodities,” the book says in dis- cussing foreign trade, the conditions of American foreign trade last year were “exceptionally favorable.” As to transportation and com- munication, the book asserts that railroad traffic last year was “equal to, if not greater than that of the previous peak year in transporta- tion history, 1923,” and that the net railway operating income in 1925 was the highest ever’ reported, reaching, for class 1 railways, $1,120,000,000. ! MOODY’S MAJORITY IN TEXAS IS REGAINED (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) as attorney general if she led him by 25,000. Representative Harry Wurzbach, the only Republican congressman from Texas, seemed to have a safe lead for renomination over his op- ponent, Fred E. Knetsch, backed by R. B. Creager. All incumbent Democratic repre- sentatives on the face of present re- turns have safe leads over their op- ponents. The only close race appeared to be in the Tenth district, where Rep- resentative James P. Buchanan, of Brenham, was opposed by James R. Hamilton. On the latest returns Buchanan had a lead of 500.

Thirty traction companies throughout the country have aban- doned trolleys altogether and now operate only motor buses. Fifty more trolley companies have sus- pended trolley operations on certain lines wholly in favor of buses. A total of 250 traction companies have undertaken, in whole or part, to replace trolley cars with buses in the past few years. Nearly 6,000 private bus companies are now operating about 25,000 buses wholly within individual States and about 500 more concerns are sending their 3,000 buses on daily runs across State lines. Nearly 76,000 buses, public and private (including school buses), operate daily throughout the coun- try over 600.000 miles of roadways. How many passengers they trans- port, heaven only knows. The av- erage mileage of a single bus is estimated at not less than 20,000 a year and, with that as a basis, one man’s calculation as to distance cov- ered by all bus lines every day is as good as another’s. At least 500,000 motor trucks are believed to be engaged in work- ing for the railroads or in compet- ing with them for freight, mostly over short hauls. The volume of their traffic in some sections is snormous. Chicago, for instance, gets 32 per cent of all its milk to- day by motor truck line. while in the case of Baltimoze, Cincinnati, Detroit, Indianapolis, Milwaukee and the Twin Cities the Department of Agriculture estimates that 90 per cent of the daily milk is deliv- ered from dairy to city by motor truck. Competition between the private trucking or bus company, on the one hand, and the railroad and trac- tion company, on the other, still is tremendously keen in many sec- tions. The motor has cut the heart out of railroad earnings here and there and supplemented them else- where. What share of the traffic is now being borne by the motor is one of the things the government is attempting to find out. While the motor truck and motor bus have been growing like mush- rooms at night, not so with the steam railroads.: They have actually shrunk. For one reason or an- other, among the reasons being mo tor competition, they have aban doned since 1920 the operation of nearly 2,500 miles of line. 1916, the peak year of railroad mileage, the steam roads have aban doned more than 4,500 miles of line. Thus while motor traffic expands, the mileage of the steam carrier diminishes. The one is under strict governmental regulation; the other under no Federal regulation wha't- ever at present and, generally speak- ing, under loose State or local regu- lation in many Commonwealths. Both are necessary. of course, to meet the country’s transportation needs. In the case of the motor, how- ever, the government is not waiting for a crop of evils and abuses to harvest, as in the case of the steam roads years ago when they first came under governmental regula tion. The government, through the commission, is gathering the facts while the infant transportation giant is still an infant and on those facts will make recommendations to Con- gress for regulatory and helpful legislation. The first session at which Com. missioner Eseh will take ‘testimony is to be held at Chicago tomorrow. Friday the second session wil] be held at St. Paul. Thereafter, during August and September, sessions will be held in the order named, at Portland, Oreg.; San Francisco, Los Angeles, Denver, Detroit, Boston, New York, Asheville, N. C.: Dallas, Kansas City, Mo., and Washington Every steam railroad under com- mission control has been directed to supply the commission with ex haustive information concerning motor competition and its own sub sidiary motor lines, if any, and thousands of private bus and truck ing firms will be given an opportu- nity to state their cases as well Months will be passed in assem bling and correlating the informa tion thus obtained and thereaftar will come the proposals to Con- gress.

GIRL AND GUEST KILLED BY ORG AT PARTY One Man, Siawease to Have Sold the Alcohol, Is Held onan open Unarge. —— Buffalo, N. Y., July 25 (By A, P.).—While the police and prohibi- tion enforcement agency in this dis- trict were trying to locate the source of the supply of wood alcohol that had caused nearly a score of deaths in this city and nearby Cana- dian cities in the past three days, the death list was today increased by eight—four in Buffalo and four in Lockport. Dispatches from To- ronto list thirteen fatalities, making the total for the three cities 30. Thirteen of the poison victims lived in this city, their deaths cover- ing a period of four days. Another Woman Victim. Those added to the list today were: Nellie McCarthy, 28, removed from her apartment in Wadsworth street and died at a hospital an hour later. Charles Lennon, of Brayton, guest of an impromptu party in Miss Mc- Carthy’s rooms, died at the same hospital today. Edward Sander, of Potomac ave- nue, employe of an automobile plant, died late Saturday night. Wadislaus Bauman, street, a painter, also saturday night. The dead at Lockport: Charles Degman, 55, and Frank Mulvey, 40, both of Lockport; Jaines Haligan, of Pittsburgh, and Christopher E. Lombard, former hotel man,.of Wrights Corners. Two Others in Hospital. In addition to these fatalities, James Murphy, another guest at the McCarthy apartment, and Alexander Mlusail, of Greely street, are in hos- pitals in a serious condition. As a.result of the police investi- gation, Carl Maischoss, of Potomac avenue, from whom Nellie McCarthy and James Murphy are alleged to have bought the poison liquor, was arrested. Maischoss is held on an open charge. Maischoss made ment, in which he averred that the liquor retailed at his place was bought from James Voelker, of Am- herst street, alleged by the police to be a wholesale distributor of al- cohol. Voelker could not be located and was reported to have left the _ city. Joseph Banos, alleged middle- man, held on a homicide charge as the result of two deaths on Satur- day, also made a sworn statement to the police, in which he claimed to have bought two 120-gallon drums of alcohol from James Voelker. Banos declared he discov- ered the alcohol unfit for use and turned it back to Voelker. Banos denied that he retailed any of the bad liquor. Acting Police Chief John S. Mar- non today conferred with Mayor Frank X. Schwab and suggested that every soft drink place in the city be closed. Toronto, Ont., July 25 (By A.

GIRL NOW IS IN HOSPITAL Chicago, July 25 (By A. P.). Recovering from an overdose of a sleeping potion in the county hos- pital tonight Joyce Hawley, ‘‘the bathtub girl,’’ protested vehemently that she had no intention of com- mitting suicide when she took the medicine last night in her hotel room. She was discharged a week ago from her cabaret job in Morton Grove, a suburb, when village offi- cials protested to the tavern keeper, and tonight Jayce admitted she was ‘flat broke,’’ but “scared to die.”’ Her dismissal resulted from pub- licity over her recent arrest for dis- regarding traffic signals and ‘‘sass- ing’’ the police. Her parents, Mr. and Mrs. An- thony Daugelas, went to the hospi- tal to see her, but her father de- clared Joyce’s present predicament seemed to him ‘‘another advertising stunt.”’ Joyce said she was starting out for a walk last night from her hotel with an army officer when she was insulted by the remarks of a man in front of the hotel and she returned to her room.

P.).—Facing another session next Tyesday of the grand jury in- vestigating the shooting by the Rev. J.. Frank: Norris of D. B. Chipps, lumberman, the minister today preached his second Sunday sermon since the shooting. The First Baptist church, in which the shooting occurred, was not so largely attended as last Sun- day. His text today was: ‘‘Now, faith is the substance of things hoped for.”” He touched on the story of Cain and Abel and that of the kill- ing of the Egyptian by Moses and the latter’s subsequent flight, ‘without leaving a forwarding ad- dress’’—as Dr. Norris put it. Rahab, who betrayed Jericho into the hands of the Jews, shall occupy the same seat of power a: Moses and Abraham, because she too, had faith, the minister said. He made no direct allusion to the slaying of Chipps. Your Empty House will not be empty long if you list it in the houses for rent columns of The Post. And you will find double meas- ure of satisfaction if you are seeking tenants of a desirableness not to be auestioned. }—— nee on DIED ADAM-—-On Saturday, July 24, 1028. at Sible hospital, LAURA, widow of Col par don Adam, of Boston, She is survived by a sister, Mrs. W.

SEEK MELLETT SLAYER IN NARCOTIC RANKS Five Waren Cuneliined: Four Released; Brother of Victim Sees Plot. Canton, Ohio, July P.).—LHarl Hexamer, acting police chief and head of the police in- vestigation into the killing of Don R. Mellett, Canton publisher, threatened a shake-up in the force today in one of his first official or- ders. Lax law enforcement in Canton, for which Chief S. A. Lengle was suspended yesterday by Mayor S. M. Swartz, will not be tolerated longer, the acting chief indicated today as he assumed Lengle’s du- ties. Hexamer also is safety di- rector, as well as acting chief-~ of police. He demoted one detective to the patrol ranks today on charges of failure to enforce the law, and he _ said that further changes could be expected any time. Four women of the underworld, *held for ‘‘suspicion,’’ were re- leased under bond last night after a long quizzing by private investi- gators. 25 (By A. Fifth Woman Held. A fifth woman held at police headquarters will be questioned to- morrow. The quizzings are all re- lated to the Mellett case, inasmuch as they are conducted in an. effort to find out how openly vice has been permitted in Canton and if the deni- zens have knowledge of a plot.-of retaliation against the publisher. Lengel has no right of appeal to the civil service commission on the mayor’s order. If permanent action is desired later, the case will by law come before the civil service com- mission, which in April reinstated the chief after a ten-day hearing. The chief at that time was charged with neglect of duty. There is now before the Stark county common pleas court litiga- tion seeking to bring about the re- moval of G. B. Jansen and J. A. Burris, the two civil service com- mission members who recently voted for Lengel’s reinstatement. The first open conflict between the investigators and an _ under- world member came last night, when in front of police headquar- ters Detective H. F. Burton and Ben Rudner, convicted rum runner, en- gaged in a fist fight. The detective had been bitterly arraigned by Rud- ner in a protracted address before a crowd. Drug Inquiry Likely. Heads of the investigation indi- cated today that a sweeping in- -quiry into the narcotic ‘‘trade’’ in Canton may be made. Mellett had been influential in sending narcotic peddlers to the Atlanta peniten- tiary. Homes of the investigators are still being guarded by national guardsmen in plain clothes. Lloyd Mellett, brother of Don, and city editor of the Daily News, declared tonight that he is “still convinced that his brother’s death was devised'in a deep-laid plot be- tween gangsters of the underworld and members of the Canton police force.”’ Mellett, who was closely asso- ciated with his brother in the lat- ters campaign against vice and po- litical corruption, said that such has been his belief since his brother was felled at the door of his garage shortly after midnight on the morn- ing of July 16. 2 GUNMEN WOUNDED; 1 IS CARRIED AWAY Five Men Said to Have Beaten and Robbed Paymaster of Ice Cream Plant. New York, July 25.—One wound- ed gunman was captured and an- other, wounded, was.carried away by three accomplices in a com- mandeered taxicab after their es- cape car had crashed into a hy- drant at 122d street and Third avenue this afternoon. Their crash followed their alleged torture and robbery of Lester Concannon, pay- master of an ice cream plant, about 4 o'clock. The men forced Concannon to open his safe, it is said, after repeated clubbings with a revolver butt. They secured about $10,000. About $6,000 was recove¥ed from the wrecked automobile. The men added to this crime, it is charged, by shooting down Cecil Linderman, a clerk, as he entered the plant. Linderman, wounded in the abdc- men, has slight chance to live. Peter Powers, 26, alias Charles Mooney, East Side, was captured by a rookie patrolman, Martin Mahoney, after the gangsters had jumped from their smashed vehi- cle. Mahoney opened fire when they failed to halt on command, street crowds scuttling for safety. 1,500 Taxis Included In a Single Order Chicago, July 25 (By A.

It is believed to be the largest single order for taxis ever placed. Cobham Reaches Rangoon. Rangoon, British India, July 25 (By A.

NEWSPAPERS ARE FULL OF padilahiail PRAISES Richest Writer i in Einalesid, He Even Sets “Prices” for Interviews. London, ‘July 25 (By A. P.).—- George Bernard Shaw, who will be 70 tomorrow—and is as Shavian as ever—wilil be the honored guest at a dinner in the house of com- mons. | It was proposed that Shaw's birthday speech be broadcast, but the British broadcasting company, which is something of a government monopoly, undertook to extract a pledge from him not to make con- troversial utterances. He declined any such pledge, so the speech will not be broadcast, but the public is awaiting with even more interest than otherwise what G. B. S. will say. One phase of his career which is never dull is joshing the English in particular and the world in gen- eral—making them like it and pay him handsomely for his banter and repartee. The newspapers are filled with columns of adulation and critical analysis of Shaw’s remarkable per- sonality and genius, with \many tributes from abroad, especially America. Tribute. German and Dutch journals have issued special Shaw numbers, while a bulky, handsomely bound volume delivered at the famous Shaw flat in Adelphi terraee, contained greet- ings of 100 eminept.German states- men, authors, musicians, actors and critics, including Dr. Stresemann, the foreign minister; Prof. Einstein, of relativity fame, and Richard Strauss, the musician. Although the fire of his Celtic ge- nius still blazes with all the vivid- ness of youth, as proved by the gen- eral acceptance of his most recent play, “Saint Joan,’’ as his best, there is a great change in the per- sonal appearance of the man who will sit at the festive board, presid- ed over by former Premier Ramsay MacDonald, with intellectuals, Germans Pay famous literary lights ranged along the table. The flood of years has mellowed the stormy, scornful young Irish iconoclast of the eighties and nine- ties, with his bristling red beard waving defiantly like a red flag, into a benign elderly gentleman, whose white whiskers and benevolent mien would get him a job as Santa Claus at anybody’s Christmas party. In Touch With Life. Aside from these changes, Ber- nard Shaw is as youthful as ever, is as erect and trim as a college ath- lete and is still adhering to his creed of being plunged to the neck in the life of his time. The dinner in his honor will be one of post- prandial brilliance. One of ‘“G. B. S.’s’’ accomplishments is that he is as remarkable an after-dinner speaker as he satirist. \Almost unbelievable financial of- fers have been made by American ecture managers to induce him to tour the United States, but without success, largely because, he says, the enormous sums offered indicate that if the managers were to get their monéy back he would have to speak to immense audiences in large hails, and that would be no fun. So G. B. S. contents himself to remain in the heart of busy London and watch the stream of life pass his doorstep, and _ collect the stream of royalty checks that pours in from all corners of the world from his literary output. He is probably the _ richest literary craftsman alive. Recently he gave 5,000 pounds to a theater project, and loaned 30,000 to a_ provincial | municipality on the advice of his. friend, Sidney Webb. Hard to Interview. Even newspaper interviewers pay toll to Bernard Shaw. Everv young reporter who comes to Lon- don assaults the iron-barred ent- rance to Shaw’s Adelphi Terrace flat for the sage’s latest views on the topics of the day. They rarely get beyond the outer portal al- though a young American climbed over the iron grill recently and ¢x- plored the innermost corners of the apartment before quitting. The more common method of ob- taining interviews with G. B. §S. is to write a list of questions and submit it for answers, and Shaw writes his professional fee after each, something as follows: “On women—100 pounds. “Views on Ireland—-50 pounds. “Views on America—500 pounds. “On the British government—19 shillings—or if the sage is in par- ticularly generous mood, ‘‘gratis.’’ Mellon Is Expected In Rome Tomorrow (Special Cable WU tspatch.)

PEGGY JOYCE CHANGES MIND; ENGAGEMENT OFF Woman’s Privilege, She Says in Radio From Ship; © Confirms Rumor. a NOT TO ida ‘BRIDE AT ALL New York, July 25 (By A. P.).— The engagement of Peggy Hopkins Joyce and Stanford Comstock, latest of her fiances, is off. In a radio message today to the Associated Press from the Homeric, en which she is sailing to Paris, Miss Joyce confirmed rumors of a break with the real estate operator. “Changed my mind—woman's privilege—not marrying any one,’ she said. When Miss Joyce sailed Friday as Countess Gosta Morner, the name of her most recent husband, Com- stock was not at the pier to bid her farewell, and it was rumored then that they had broken their engage- ment by mutual consent. The latest of the romances of the actress began in Florida. With the announcement of the engagement, Comstock’s former wife alleged that he is not legally divorced from her. Miss Joyce, at that time, how- ever, insisted that she was going to marry Comstock despite the objec- tions of his former wife. Cosmeticians to Open War on Flapper Fads Chicago, July 25 (By A.

EMBEZZLING OF LIQUOR, SEIZED, MAY BE CHARGE Former Official, However, | Says He Only Served cha oven | Him. or “avo San Francisco, July (By A, P.).—Ned M.-Green, suspended prohibition ydirector for northern California gh Nevada, stood ready today to efend his actions drinking liquor in his hotel. Tomorrow he is slated to answer the summons of the Federal grand jury and appear to justify his new- ly announced doctrine that a direc- tor of prohibition may drink, offer drinks of liquor to his friends, be host at parties in his hotel, at which liquor might be served, and even offer drinks to reporters. ‘Just hospitality,’’ he explained. But the United States attorney here, George Hatfield, is relying on a section Of the Féderal penal code which makes it a felony for an of- ficer of the internal revenue serv- ice to embezzle or wrongfully con- vert for his own use money or prop- erty of the United States. The of fense carries a maximum penalty of ten years in jail. Served Gifts, Col. Green, however, has been careeful to explain that he had not appropriated any government prop- erty, seized liquors, but has only dis- pensed the liquor which came to him as gifts from friends. True, he says, some of the liquor he found in the waste baskets in his office, but it did not come from seized stocks, but was left for him by well meaning friends in his service: . Before he left yesterday for his sister’s home in Modesto, to spend the week-end, Green‘s own hotel! quarters were raided. He witnessed government agents seize more than 20 bottles of whisky, gin, wines and champagnes, which had filled two of the ‘dresser drawers. The assort- ment was removed to the Federal building to be held as evidence. Col. Green, who describes himself as neither “dripping wet” nor “bone dry”—but “regular,” told reporters that notwithstanding his liberal at- titude on the conduct of an en- forcement officer in private life, he believes in prohibition enforcement in the “big sense.’ The “big sense,” he explained, was the shutting off of all sources of supply, such as rum runners, stills and large boot- leggers. It was under this condition, Green continued, that he accepted the office of enforcement chief for northern California and Nevada.

P.).—Tons of earth near the Missis- sippi river bank here sank suddenly late today, burying buildings and elevators. of the West ‘Kentucky Coal Co., and causing damage esti- mated at $350,000. The mass, estimated at 10,000,000 cubic feet, sank. 50 feet, tumbling everything on it into a twisted mass of wreckage. None of the ground went into the river. A wall of earth,’ left along the water front, seemingly checked the sink. Trackage of the St. Louis-San Francisco railroad for. several blocks was torn and twisted and a large molasses tank belonging to the Happy Feed Mills fell into the chasm. The sink was 1,000 feet long and more than 200 feet wide. One building belonging to the coal com- pany sank 50 feet, but was not damaged. Cracks were still forming around the edge of the sink late tonight. Indications were that more ground would go into the slide. The cause of the cave-in was undetermined. 5,000 Lepers Greet Thompson at Culion Culion, P. I., July 25 (By A. P.). Carmi A.

EAR Miss McDonald: I have D read so much of your advice to others that I am venturing to come to you for help for myself. My wife and I live in a small su- burban town, and until a few months ago lived alone. Then we took into our family a man whom we both knew and for whom we both had a warm admiration and respect. In every way he has fulfilled our faith in him, but after he had been with us a short time I noticed a tendency on the part of my wife to desire his company and attention above my own, and lately it has come to the point where I am al- most a figurehead in my own home. Everything is run to please the boarder and my wife seems to have no other thought than for him. She telephones him to meet her if she ’-ig detained in town, runs to his of- fice on every possible occasion, lunches and has dinner with him quite frequently and rides around the country with him on the slight- est pretext.. I am quite sure there is nothing seriously wrong between them at the present time, but her attentions to him are so obvious that the neighbors are beginning to take notice. For instance, when he leaves in the morning she accom- panies him to the door and watches him until he turns the corner, re- gardless of the fact that the neigh- bors all around are a witness to it. Instead of coming to me for ad- vice or information, she takes all her problems to him, and he ad- vises her. He prescribes remedies for her when she feels ill, regulates her diet and suggests changes in her wardrobe. In almost every way he has usurped my place in our home, and I want to ask your ad- vice as the best thing to do about it. He is still my friend, but he has surely stolen the love of my wife even if he has done it uncon- sciously and does not want it. How can I persuade her to give him less attention? I have thought at times that I would clear out and leave both my home and wife to him, but I feel sure the infatuation is only on her side and that while he does pay | her attention, it is only his idea of| a courtesy due to the family which he boards, Deaf Miss McDonald, will you give me the benefit of your wide experience and suggest some way by which this triangle situation may be stopped. my wife and my friend?

HE way we arrive in the world ay seems to be pretty much the same, no matter what sort of position we are to occupy when we get here. But a great many people worry themselves about whether | they should, or should not, nounce the birth of a baby, if so, how? There is, or has been, spread custom through the country sending out little cards, engraved with the name of the new-born child, tied with ribbon to the cards of the parents. This is a perfectly good custom for those who like it, and one is apt to feel snobbish when asked about it and forced to say that the fashionable world doesn’t do it and never has. Yet what can be said when people who are not content with their own customs beg to be told and, a widge-/its parents, what are those of ‘‘Society?’”’ They have to be given the information, although the mere fact of writing it down makes it seem pretentious. The reason people of the circle an-| called Society don't do this particu- lar thing is twofold. The birth of ‘a baby, they feel, concerns only the immediate families of each, and their mutual friends; these are all intimate enough to wish the news conveyed to them at once, by telephone, or telegraph, or letter, or word of mouth, Outside of this, it is not considered neces- sary to treat so private an event in a semisocial way. If it must be announced to the world at large, it is done in the daily papers. This, however, is more usual in England than in America. 1926, (Copyright, by Vogue.) — Beauty and You Si Rae By VIOLA PARIS.

Formality is order—the right thing at the right time andin the right place. Order demands, for example, that only the neces- sary pieces of furniture be placed in a dining room. A couch is ob- viously unnecessary; so is a china cabinet. A built-in china closet is a decorative architec- tural feature of the room, and when the niche is painted some contrast- ing color such as deep sea blue or green and the shelves filled with it adds greatly to ‘the interest and appearance of the give their beauty day by) | dining room. Unless there is one of these picturesque built-in cup- boards, however, the china should be kept in the pantry. The necessary furniture for din- ing rooms consists of a dining table, chairs and a sideboard or serving table. If the room is large, it will be found necessary to balance the sideboard by a console or pair of consoles on the opposite wall. accessories as mirrors, and a plant stand or fish bowl in the window to catch the sunlight, while not absolutely necessary, are FASHION HINT © VOGUE 2615 HIS little linen frock has a T becoming version of the sailor collar.

While every dining room must contain a table and chairs, there is a wide latitude in the matter of the sideboard and serving table. These pieces need not necessarily match the table; in fact, some of the most attractive dining rooms are the ones in which all the pieces do not match exactly, but are alike in feel- ing. In an Italian or early Eng- lish or cottage interior an old carved chest may be used in place of the regulation sideboard to hold the linen and silver constantly in use. A charming dining room could be created with a mixture of Hepplewhite, Sheraton and pieces of an earlier era—a William and Mary side table for instance, or a Queen Anne cabinet or chairs. These pieces, beautiful in them- selves, are near enough in feeling and design to be combined success- fully in the same room and would | create a more interesting interior than if all the pieces were of the same era. An occasional painted piece is a charming note of color with nut or mahogany furniture—a con- sole, side table or open dresser. And nothing is more delightful for a simple country house dining room than a painted set consisting of a refectory table, chairs and _ side table. These might be painted emerald green and used with a col- | orful scenic paper or one in a gray | landscape effect. A notable feature in modern dec- is the use of mirrors to Another necessary piece of furni- 'ture in a dining room is a decora- | tive screen to conceal the door to 'the pantry.

HE easiest, simplest and cheap- + est way to prevent malaria is to spend an hour each morn- ing or less in killing the mosqul- toes that have spent the night try- ing to kill you. When a lady mosquito of the malaria-bearing family has filled herself with human blood she is in no mood for traveling. She flies to a nearby wall, lights and sits, sluggish and quiet, until she has digested her meal. The best instrument of destruc- tion is a fly swatter. The best time to hunt is about sun up. The best hunting ground is the window screen, The best huntsmen, all things considered, are the older children or the mother. Le Prince, who tells the story from which this is taken, advises that the children be set the daily early morning task of finding and |killing all the gorged mosquitoes | | wal- | | | Tokyo.—-The metropolitan police | of. Tokyo are drawing up a set of | |regulations to govern the crowds | at baseball games. Just what the police are going to inflict upon the growing army of fans in this city is not known. The only regulation so far announced is that the sexes are to be separated, with male and female bleachers. The reason is not made plain. Japanese crowds do not throw bottles at umpires, nor is the Jap- anese language supplied with either the worst that can be said being to call some one a fool or a beast. As the Japanese use an almost entirely English baseball vocabulary, how- ever, it is possible that the ‘officers of the new law suspect some revo- lutionary meaning back of ‘‘atta- boy” or “‘safe by a mile,’’ and in- tend to restrict all applause to “banzai’’ and all criticism to “‘rot- ten.’”’ within the homes. They like the job and they work at it eagerly. If the beds are covered by mos- quito bars, most of the gorged mos- quitoes will be found on the bar. Other places of choice for them are window and door screens. If the walls and ceilings are white mosquitoes on them can be readily seen. A bull’s eye torch, of mod- erate illuminating power, can be used to kill the mosquitoes hanging on dark colored walls, hiding under the beds and secreted in the closets.

PITCHED BATTLE IS HAD Norfolk, Va., July 25 (By A. P.). The Virginia crab beds of lower Tangier sound, in Chesapeake bay, today lay under the protecting 1- pounders of the State gunboat Com- modore Maury, marking the end, for the present, at least, of a long war against Maryland poachers. The scene of a pitched battle Friday night between the poachers and the crew of the Virginia police patrol-boat : Marguerite, the sound was Sabbath-quiet today, with none invading fishing craft in sight. How many of the Maryland- ers were wounded in the fight with the patrol boat was not Known, but the crew of four were confident they had registered several hits, while escaping injury themselves. Capt. A. B. Hudgins, command- ing the gunboat, which was sent to the relief of the Marguerite, will begin an investigation t@morrow. His report to Commissioner of Fish- eries Houston was: ‘‘Found things not so good. Will stay several days and start investigation Monday.’’ No elaborating report has been re- ceived. The battle of Friday between the Marguerite and the poachers cul- minated a long feud between Vir- ginia fishermen and poachers from the Maryland crab waters. Ill feel- ing grew out of the recently en- acted Virginia conservation laws, which restrict to Virginia residents the right to fish the State’s waters.

YOUTH COURTING GIRL ELD NO TRESPASSER Ernest Peer, 19 Years Old, Is Dismissed by Rockville Court. HER FATHER PROSECUTED MONTGOMERY COUNTY BUREAY OF THE WASHINGTON POST. ROCKVILLE, MD. Because Ernest Peer, 19 years old, of the vicinity of Travilah, Md., persisted in paying attention to Annie McCrossin, 16 years old, daughter of William H. McCrossin, also of the Travilah neighborhood, after he had been warned to dis- continue his visits to the home, the girl’s father had the young wooer arrested on a charge of trespass. Judge Samuel Riggs, however, be- fore whom the case was tried in the police court at Rockville, did not think the testimony showed the boy had violated the law and ac- quitted him. McCrossin also pre- ferred a charge of carrying a con- cealed weapon against the youth, claiming that he was seen with a revolver and a blackjack. That charge. was dismissed by Judge Riggs.

JUDGE IS RESCUED _ AFTER AN ABDUCTION Crowd Overtakes Georgia Band Carrying Jurist To- ward Swamp Lands. Folkston, Ga., July 25 (By A. P.).—Seven men were held in the Ware county jail tonight in con- nection with the kidnaping last night of Judge J. Henry Johnson, of the Charlton county court. Judge Johnson, a wealthy lumber- man, was rescued by police offi- cers, who overpowered one of two men who were carrying him toward Waycross. Three of the men were appre- hended when their automobile was overtaken, but four others es- caped and made their way to swamp lands. Several score citi- zens surrounded the place and watched during the night, and the capture was made early today. Police believe that Judge John- son’s activity in the prosecution 09072 prohibition cases enraged a groun of men whom the abductors repre- sented. Judge Johnson told ofifi- cers he was called from a store last night about 9:30 o’clock by a man who said he wished to dis- cuss a lumber deal and forced him to enter an automobile. Newton Mann Dies; First of Modernists Chicago, July 25.—The Rev. Newton Mann, nationally known preacher and author, the first cler- gyman in America publicly to ex- pound the doctrine of evolution from the pulpit and the man who began the modernist-fundamental- ist controversy in this country, died here of pneumonia, tonight. Mr. Mann was more than 91 years old and a Unitarian. He passed the last fifteen years of his life in Chicago. He was known as a poet, had in his earlier years contributed to astronomical discov- eries and was the author of a num- ber of books on literature, religion and on gocialism. French-AmericanBank Has Run by Chinese San Francisco, July 25 (By A. P.).——The falling French franc landed without a jingle in San Francisco’s Chinatown yesterday. It sent a number of Chinese scurry- ing to the branch of the French American Bank in the district to withdraw their savings. _— The bank ordered the branch to remain open until all of the in- qguirers were satisfied. Many left without their money after being told that the bank had plenty of good American dollars and was in. no way dependent on the French (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) clauses were not applied to the ex- tent of making impossible the exist- ence of the church. Constitution Is Violated. “In truth, the governments in power during that period of time undoubtedly placed great obstacles before the church and passed against the church several admip- istrative measures excessively vigor- ous and sometimes unconstitutional, but they never made impossible the administration of sacraments and the exercise of cults in general. ‘“‘Against that grave persecution which could be considered as iso- lated and transitory we could ob- serve an expectant attitude, seeking harmony, tolerating humiliations, always having in mind the princi- ples of the divine constitution of the church. But the regulations now issued by the federal executive which injure to such an extent the divine rights of the church intrust- ed to our guardianship are second- ary to the natural rights which both consecrate religious liberty as the primordial foundation of civili- zation and positively prescribe so- cial and individual duty to worship God, are so contrary to the Mexican constitutional rights, that before such violation of so sacred moral values it is impossible for us to yield any further. Religion Made Criminal. “It would be a crime on our part to tolerate such a situation, and we do not desire that when brought before the tribunal of God the tardy lamentations of the prophet might cOme to our mind—‘woe is me, be- cause I have kept silent.’ “Who will not recognize that an offense truly incredible is done di- vine rights and natural rights, and to the dearest and most sacred in- terests of the Mexican nation, when, according to the latest decree of the federal executive, the acts or- dered or advised by God, and there- fore most sacred acts which the leg- islation of civilized countries pro- tect, acts which for centuries have been the soul of life of the Mexican people, are made criminal offenses, with penalties more rigorous than moral crimes in general or crimes against life and property? ‘“‘Who fails to recognize that the present decree, instead of protect- ing the before-mentioned rights, merely tends to make the 1917 con-| stitution unchangeable, whereas the Mexican people for a thousand reason desire it amended? Action Not Rebellious. “Is it not clear that the decree, instead: of promoting the common welfare and assuring religious lib- erty, as the constitution requires, tends only to make Mexico un- Catholic, and to create for the gov- ernment a serious problem, and a sad inheritance for its successors? “For this reason, and following the pontiff’s example, we protest against the decree before God, be- fore civilized humanity, before the country and history. With God’s favor and your (the Catholics of Mexico) cooperation, we will work to effect an amendment of the de- cree and the antireligious provi- sion of the constitution, and we will not desist from our purpose until it is attained. ““As we have said in a previous pastoral letter, our conduct is not rebellion, because this same consti- tution containing antireligious clauses leaves the way open for its amendment; also because our atti- tude is just obedience of orders and because it is just defense of legiti- mate rights. “Therefore, confronting the im- possibility of practicing our sacred ministry under the conditions im- posed by this decree, and after hav- ing consulted the most holy father, his holiness, the Pope, and with his ratification we order that after July 31, until we order otherwise, all religious services requiring the in- tervention of priests shall be sus- pended in all the churches of the country. Not An Interdiction. ‘‘We advise you, beloved sons, that this is not meant to impose on you the grave penalty of inter- diction, but we-merely intend to use the only weapon at present at our disposal to protest against the antireligious clauses of the consti- tution and the laws thereby sanc- tioned. “Church buildings will not be closed, so, worshippers may pray within them. The priests in charge of the. buildings will be withdrawn in order to release them from the penalties imposed by the decree, and so, priests will not have to give the notifications required by the law. We leave the churches under the care of the worshippers, and we are sure they will guard the sanctuaries which they inherited from their ancestors, or which they built themselves for the worship of God. : ‘“‘As the law does not grant Catholic primary schools, the necessary permission to impart re- ligious teachings to which they are bound, we impose it upon the-con- science of all fathers to prevent their sons from attending schools where their faith and good cus- toms are endangered and where the texts violate that religious neutral- ity recognized by the constitution itself. } “It is painful indeed to our pa- ternal heart that we are forced to adopt such grave measures, for which we assume full responsibil- ity. But you will understand by what has been said that we cannot adopt other lines of conduct. Must Obey God Only. ‘“‘Have faith in us, beloved sons, as we have faith in your unbreak- able loyalty. Let us all have faith in God. But do not lead a barren life because of this confidence, Re- member that Nineveh was saved from destruction by prayers of penitents. Persevere through God end the Blessed Virgin with pray- ers, fasts and penitence also. “Do not forget those poor priests who are left without means to live. Show your pain by refusing to at- tend mundane amusements. Seek by all permissible and peaceful means annulment of those laws that will deprive you and your sons of the priceless and necessary treas- ure, religious life. “Neither your social standing, nor orders you may receive, nor anything whatsoever will relieve you of the grave crime before God and man of cooperating in. the serious evils which are brought about by the application of the anti-Catholic laws. “And for a greater reason it is necessary to attach the shameful title of traitoy to our own religion and to apply heavy canonical penal- tles to any persons who under cover of so-called popular action, may give information against the clergy or sacred property.” (This refers to the procedure whereby persons may inform the government of cases where the clergy or churches own property forbidden by the con- stitution, enabling the government to confiscate such property, the identity of their informers remain- ing secret.) “Some of the penalties which the Catholic Church may impose upon persons who have been baptized therein are: ‘‘Hxcommunication of those who issue laws, regulations or decrecs against the rights and liberty of the church. “Excommunication of those who directly or indirectly prevent the exercise of religious jurisdiction. ‘“BMxcommunication of those who dare to bring a bishop before a laical court.”’ “Excommunication of those giv- ing their names to Masonry or simi- lar sects that plot against the church or against the church au- thorities. ‘“‘Excommunication of those who usurp, themselves or through others, ecclesiastical property of any na- ture, or prevent those rightfully en- titled to such property from receiv- ing its benefits. “On August 1, his holiness the Pope and the whole Catholic world will pray for the Mexican church. Let us join the holy father and our prothers throughout the world in making that a day of special prayer and penitence. ‘‘Let us strengthen our spirits, re- membering how Jesus was perse- cuted and reviled, but resurrected. And so with the Mexican church, after the persecutions it will bs re- surrected more glorious than be- fore.”’ The letter concludes by imparting the pastoral benediction. Calles Declares Mexico Normal; Assails Catholics New York, July 25 (By A. P.).— President Calles of Mexico, in a telegram to the Associated Press, tonight declared the situation in his country to be normal and de- nied rumors of antigovernmental activity. In response to a query sent him as to the situation ‘in Mex- ico, he telegraphed: ‘‘Rumors which you say circulate in that country of impending revo- lution in Mexico unfounded. tion is normal, with few unimpor- tant incidents provoked by political campaign of reactionaries under cover of the robe of Catholicism. “It is only a new phase of the old fight of reaction against the ad- ministrative work and the recon- structive labor and the consolida- tion of the revolutionary principles that the government is endeavoring to bring about.’’ Court Order Closes Church for 12 Days Lake Charles, La.. July 25 (By A.P.).—The First Baptist church of Lake Charles was closed to all persons until its members can hold a business session twelve days from now, in an order issued in circuit court here. The court order was issued after a hearing on injunction proceedings by which certain mem- bers sought to bar the pastor, the Rev. George W. Clarke, from oc- cupying the pulpit, claiming he had been relieved from his duties. Mr. Clarke and his friends claim that the action did not represent the sentiment of the congregation. Policeman “Bitten In Making Arrest After being bitten severely on both hands by Lloyd Williams, 49 years old, 1311 D street southwest, whom he was trying to arrest on the charge of being disorderly in his house, Policeman N. N. Carpenter struck Williams several times with his baton to maintain his arrest, he reported last night. Carpenter reported that he was sent to the Williams home after police were told that a man was acting in a disorderly manner. Both the policemgn and Williams were treated at Emergency hospital. Man Injured by Auto. Wesley L. Parker, colored, 50 years old, 1233 Thirteenth street northwest, was seriously injured when he was knocked down by an automobile driven, police say, by Norman Beaton, 1207 C_ street near Ninth street northwest last night. He was treated at Gallinger hospital for a possible fracture of the skull and alcoholism. His con- dition is serious, physicians said. Boy Rescued in Potomac. Clarence Strong, colored, 12 years old, 309 O street southwest, was res- cued from drowning in the Potomac river at the foot of Half street southwest, yesterday afternoon, by Jeff Ford, 661 Navy place south- east, who dived under the water and Strong was taken to Providence hos- pital in a passing automobile and re- vived.

NO ONE SAW ACCIDENT. Cleveland, July 25 (By A. P.).— Five persons were killed and an- other probably fatally injured when their automobile went over a 20- foot embankment here early today. The victims are Cleveland resi- dents. They are Miss Lennie Mc- Gee, 21; Esther May Wilson, 17; Elmer H. Treichel, 35; Boyd Wag- ner, 24, and Louis Feurstein, 26. Joseph Lisly, 30, was unconscious when the wreckage and bodies were discovered. He was taken to a hos- pital, where doctors said hope for his recovery was slight. Details of the accident were un- available twelve hours after the ac- cident. Relatives said they did not know where the victims had been or where they were going. The auto left the road 25 feet from the embankment before plung- ing to the tracks of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad. Trainmen found the crumpled car when they were forced to stop their train because of wreckage on the track. All oc- cupants of the machine except Lisly were dead. Another train passed over the track on which the car landed three hours before. The crew say the track was clear then. Mexican Munitions Steamer Has Mutiny 25 (By A.

The Laly, under charter to the Ward Line, was proceeding from Philadelphia for Tampico, Mexico, with explosives and a gen- eral cargo. The vessel had touched here and sailed but returned last night and signaled for police. Havana, July Former Gov. McDaniel Dies. Monroe, Ga., July 25 (By A. P.).

Monday, July 26, 1926. A REAL ISSUE. The Democrats have made the tariff a real issue in the coming election of senators and representatives. A year ago it. was believed the lid could be kept on the tariff, at least until the 1928 election; but the Democrats have forced the matter, and, according to Representative Hull, have challenged the Re- publicans to meet the issue. Obviously the farm relief question precipi- tated the issue, and, as usual, the enemies of protection and the present administration seized upon the situation, and declared the Re- publican tariff is responsible for the depression in agriculture. The tariff has been a political issue for many years. Despite the efforts of the enemies of protection to declare that the tariff is not a political but a ‘‘scientific’’ question, this year the Democrats themselves are responsible for making the tariff their one important issue. Now they admit the tariff is a political ques- tion. While the war brought many new problems and is responsible for a somewhat new align- ment among the people governed wholly by personal interests, the fact remains that the principle is as sound and necessary as it ever has been or ever will be. Notwithstanding the claim that new conditions alter old prin- ciples, this statement is challenged by those who have a fixed belief that sound principles are unchangeable. Ever since 1890, 36 years, this principle of American protection has been fought out by the yoters at the polls. Assaults have been made upon it in various forms; yet the prin- ciple remains as vital as ever. In the coming battle the lines of both historic parties may be broken somewhat, but the outstanding issue will be between those who believe that a tariff should be sufficiently high to give American procuc and manufacturers free- dom from unfair foreign competition in the American markets, and those who believe that the tariff snould be so adjusted as to compel American producers and manufacturers. to meet the lower prices of foreign producers and manufacturers in the American markets. Free trade is repudiated; a revenue tariff is ineffective since the present tariff has pro- duced the largest revenue ever; so a ‘“‘competi- five tariff’’ is the latest label. That means a “if low enough to compel American pro- ‘ucers and manufacturers to meet foreign competition in the American markets. The issue and the principle involved should be carefully studied from all angles. It may have an important bearing upon the welfare of every American citizen. The Democrats have chosen a battlefield, and must see it through to a finish. It will be a battle worthy deep study by all.* Facts should control. ,™ a Sh AO UAe AE HAH BO UH OES BEHEADED EHM Ee OOM Ph OE . * ~~ & & & # ~*~ & eonreveewe see eeneeenee 4 8H eM & Ara wi OD . 9 2 3 4 -a a i * 7 a + z s + + ¢ 5 5 : a ' . ¢ ‘ , : ‘ ; : . + | ' * ¢ ? : ; ‘ & 3 * e ee Any man’s degree of ignorance is in exact proportion to his eagerness to air the little knowledge he has. .*. 2 tere > © @ te Pe oe sa. > “BETTER BUSINESS.” The valuable service to legitimate business interests and to the general public which marks the activities of the Better Business Bureau is frequently overlooked, but with the recent publication of its annual report, its work “for truth in advertising and integrity in business,’’ to borrow a phrase from the pre- amble to its articles of incorporation, becomes apparent. The primary aim of the bureau is to build public confidence in advertising and in business, and that it is attaining this end is demonstrated by its belief that the ultimate- ly desired enlarged membership will become a reality during the coming year. The activities of the bureau are divided roughly into two classifications, financial and merchandise. Both carry on a very necessary and unduplicated service. Today, as a result of the work of the merchandise department, advertising in Washington is on a higher plane than ever before, comparatively free from in- accuracies, and with a new note of conserva- tiveness that has undoubtedly strengthened public respect and confidence. Nearly twenty- five hundred cases were handled by the mer- chandise division during the year. All were investigated, and, in practically all instances, adjusted to the satisfaction of the customer. Over three hundred individuals brought com- rlaints of unfair treatment directly to the ofiices of the bureau. In all cases there has _ | been made an attempt to mediate between _ | the customer and the merchant, and in most # cases these complaints, too, have been ad- : * justed, satisfactorily. | That Washington is no longer the happy ‘ hunting ground for the fraudulent promoter Bass : is due in no small measure to the activity of {the financial department.

Progress in Conservation. New York Times: In the Ameri- Can conservation movement public opinion has gone through three stages. In the first, emphasis was placed on mere salvation from destruction. In “the second, par- ticular attention was paid to restor- ing some of the damage done by reckless waste of natural resources. This was expressed in the interest of reforestation. The third stage, which we are now entering, shows the tendency to develop with an eye to long-term production. -Inas- much as this combines the advan- tages of the previous stages, it is certain to be helpful to the country at large. . Rational Preparedness. New York Telegram: The American people as a whole can be relied upon to give that measure of attention to military training and preparedness which actual condi- tions throughout the world merit without going to extremes in any direction. If the extremists of either group get fractious and an- noying, the sane citizenry of America will know what to do with them, and it is upon the sane citi- zenry that President Coolidge relies.

German, French and Latin had until 1915 been the principal foreign-language studies in the secondary schools. From that time until 1922 the students discovered in great numbers that Spanish had certain fundamental attractions, and the figures given by the Federal bureau of education show the tremendous shift to its study. Debt and Recognition. » Springfield Republican: Among the reasons why the United States government refuses to accord dip- lomatic recognition to the soviet government of Russia is that the soviets repudiated the debts of pre- vious Russian governments to the United States. Diplomatic recognition of the Moscow government is not in fact dependent on Moscow’s assumption of this debt; there are other causes of the present nonrecognition pol- icy of the Washington administra- tion. France owes the United States Treasury sixteen times as much as Russia, and the last thing dreamed of is a diplomatic break with France. Were other condi- tions favorable to the resumption of diplomatic relations between Washington and Moscow, the debt question would not be allowed to stand in the way. | Losses on German Marks. _ New York Sun: No one has sympathy for the gambler who whines about and tries to dodge his losses. ‘And gambler is the only werd applicable to those who bought German marks and war bonds during the’ inflation period on the assumption that they could | sell dear what they obtained for a song.

As some one else has said, the glib tongue is becoming a power in the land. Yes, the monologue habit is grow- | ing, so that in every gathering, the parlor, the dining room, the club or social gathering, we are not free from these pests. General con- versation under such circumstances becomes an impossibility, as the person with the loudest voice and most staying power becomes the monopolizer, taking the words out of the mouths of everybody else through sheer determination, so that they must listen in stunned silence, or slip out of the room. The loud speaker, as a rule, is not the best informed or the most in- teresting of the party. The result is that others with more informa- tion and more attractive materia! for conversation are forced to be- come a mere background for the ignoramus, who gets and keeps the | floor. | There is no protection against these social bullies, for such they are. The only resource would be to arise and hit him over the head with a club, but this is not allow: able in polite society.

Washington, July 20. ee our Just a ‘*Regular."’ To the Editor of The Post—-SIT: Somewhere in the back chamber ot ‘the brain pan which surmounts the cervical vertebrae of my spinal col- umn is the recollection of a cartoon which appeared in Life back in 1918. It was a picture of a wan and emaciated man in the uniform of an American soldier. By his side was the picture of a gushing young thing who greeted the doughboy rapturously, “Oh, you hero,’’ and the khaki-clad boy responded dis- gustedly, ‘“‘I ain’t no hero, I’m a regular.’’ Down near the Eastern branch ‘of the Potomac river is Congres- | sional cemetery. In that cemetery | ie the remains of the fourteen vic- tims of the blast which destroyed the arsenal in Washington in 1864. Over the grave is a tall shaft erect- ed by the citizens of Washington in memory of those poor girls. Two weeks ago the country was horrified over the news of the most terrific explosion ever known in the United States, through which an unknown number of lives were sac- rificed. Then came the thrilling account of the heroism of the “leathernecks”’ of the marine corps who volunteered to crawl into the crater of hell to recover the bodies of the comrades who had stuck to their posts regardless of the fact that such devotion ‘to duty meant certain death. Just how many bodies of the marines eventually will be recovered and placed beside their comrades in Arlington is not known. Some of them already have reached that final haven without at- tracting any attention whatever, and it is doubtful if there will be anything more than a $3 marker placed over their graves. Comp- troller General McCarl won't per- mit extravagance, and bosides they were ‘‘regulars.’’ The mortal re- mains of Caesar may be “used to stop a hole to keep the winds away.” FATHER OF A MARINE. | with you?

LEROY JEFFERS DIES IN AIRPLANE’S FALL Companion of the Author and Explorer Receives Fractured Hip. Wawona, Calif., July 25 (By A. P.).—Leroy Jeffers, noted author, lecturer and explorer, of New York, was killed here today when an air- plane in which he was a passenger crashed to the ground.

Spoiled Boys, Grown, Make Bad Husbands London, July 25 (By A. P.).— Spoiled boys make bad husbands. So says Miss H. 8S. Cooper Hodgson, health inspector of the Durham county council. ‘“‘Mothers who are too indulgent to their sons give wives self-cen- tered husbands, who, because they have been thoroughly spoiled, never lift a finger to help in the home,” Miss Hodgson declared at a sani- tarv congress here. Fathers and mothers who had not yet learned to understand. the miracle of the baby’s mind, Miss Hodgson said, were missing a great deal. Her motto is: “Children need neither rods nor rules, but guides.” French Queen of Fete Praises Mrs. Whitney St. Nazaire (By A. P.).—The most touching tribute paid to Mrs. Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney at the fete which marked the dedi- cation of her statue of the dough- boy was that of the French ‘‘queen of the fete.” Shortly after the official banquet opened, the French ‘‘queen’’ sud- denly crossed to Mrs. Whitney’s ta- ble and on behalf of the people of St. Nazaire thanked her for the beauty. she had added to the harbor by her conception of the American $1,000,000 in Montreal Montreal, Quebec, July 25.—A million dollars was the amount of money flung by American tourists into one Montreal store last year.

CHURCH PARISH 20 YEARS I EXISTENCE. OBSERVES BITHON Prince Georges Celebrates Anniversary With Special Services at Rockville. HISTORY OF FOUNDING JULY 25, 1726, IS GIVEN Addresses by Former Mem- bers and Special Music Complete Program. The two hundredth anniversary of the founding of Prince Georges parish was celebrated in Christ Episcopal church, Rockville, Md., yesterday in the presence of many former members of the parish and others from Montgomery county and the District. The parish, which now comprises but two churches, Christ church here and Ascension church at Gaithersburg, originally embraced all of what is now the District of Columbia, Prince Georges, Montgomery, Frederick, Washington, Gafrett and Alleghany counties and a part of Carroll county. Exercises were in charge of the Rev. Millard F. Minnick, pastor of Christ church, and included com- munion at 7:30 a. m. conducted by the rector, and services at 11 a. m. and 8 p. m. in charge of Rev. Mr. Minnick. The Rev. James E. Freeman, bishop of Washington, was unable to attend as he is out of the city. A letter from his summer home in Maine congratulating the parish was read. History of Parish Given. A historical sketch of Prince Georges parish, from its founding to the present time, was given by the Rev. Mr. Minnick at the morn- ing service. He stated that the act of the Colonial assembly granting a charer to the vestry of Prince Georges parish, was approved July 25, 1726, 200 years ago yesterday. The first church, he _ said. was erected on what is now the District of Columbia land, donated by Col. John Bradford, and which is now the cemetery of Rock Creek parish. The first church near Rockville was built in 1738 where the Rock- ville Union cemetery is now located. In 1822 the church was moved to Rockville and a building was erected on the present site of Christ church, the land being donated by Solomon Holland. The first rectory was built in 1829 on ground given by Judge Kilgour, and the present rectory oc- cupies a site donated by Miss Mar- garet Beall, the pastor stated. Both the church and the rectory have been built several times, he said. Plans for erection of a parish hall on the site adoining the church were explained by William H. Baden, a member of the parish and chairman of the parish hall building commit- tee. At the evening service, following the prayer meeting conducted by the pastor, addresses on parish history were delivered by the Rev. Charles T. Warner and the Rev. Enoch Ma- gruder Thompson, former members of the parish. Musical programs were given by the church choir at all services. Isolated Village Hid In Wilds of Siberia Riga, July 25 (By A. P.)—A hitherto unknown village in a re- mote interior of the arctic zone is reported by the Russian officer, S. Popow, in the ‘‘Russkoje Wrenja.”’ On his wanderings’ through northern Siberia, Popow stumbled on a Village of 38 male and female inhabitants who had never seen a stranger before. Their village is thousands of kilometers from any human habitation and inclosed on three sides by .a vast bog. Popow, who lived among the vil- lagers for two years, describes them as being almost primeval in their habits and instincts and as having but a vague notion that they are Russian. They speak Russian, but so profusely interspersed with old Slavic words as to be almost un- recognizable. More Women Seeking Patents in England London (By A. P.).—More women than ever are trying their hands at inventing, and in 1925 there were 608 applications for patents from women inventors against 493 in 1924.

Lincoln, Nebr., July -~For a State embraced in the agrarian up- rising belt, Nebraska to the travel- er appears calm and placid enough. Resentment over failure of farm re- lief in Congress seems to diminish when one crosses the Missouri river and the politicians are having a hard time stirring the farmers up. Statewide primaries are coming August 10, but nobody, outside the candidates, seems to be interested. The high spot is the governorship, no senatorship being up this time and the farmers are busy with their crops and are not bothering with politics. The outstanding phase of this languid campaign is the possi- ble recrudescence of Charles W. Bryan, who, it may be remembered, ran for vice president on the Demo- cratic ticket two years. ago, and who is now ambitious to climb back into the governor's chair which he occupied one term. He is unop- posed for the Democratic nomina- tion. Gov. Adam McMullen, Republi- can, has two rivals for nomination on the G. O. P. ticket, Robert CG. Ross, of Lexington, and Fred (4. Johnson, of Hastings. Some of his appointments are drawing criticism from some quarters but the general belief is that he will get the re- nomination on his general record. Democrats Are Hopeful. _ The issues are local, but with Charley. Bryan in the field, the Democrats are hopeful of dragging in enough sideshow stuff to make lt look like a resounding slap on the back for the Democratic nation- al party in case Bryan wins. The tariff may be utilized for this. But the mere weather may cut more weight than any thing else. Every- body is praying for rain. and as many experienced politicians view it, if the corn is hurt too much by drought, it will aid Bryan more than 1,000,000 speeches. The reap- pearance of Bryan in Nebraska poll- tics has brought a yell from the Re- publicans that he belongs down in Florida and if elected the executive Office would likely be moved to Palm Beach or Miami for the winter. Bryan retorts that he was merely taking a winter vacation under the cocoanut trees, the first one in 30 years. He had no intention of leay- ing Nebraska. Anyhow there were probably as many Nebraskans in Florida last year as back home—-it looked that way from the automobile license tags. Bryan says 25,000 voters importuned him to run. That was invitation enough. Taxes are one issue. Mr. Bryan is telling them that as governor he cut faxes a third. The Republicans say this was a paper showing and that when McMullen went in his heritage from Bryan was an cumulation of debts. A 6. ac- Both Urge Farm Relief. On farm relief Gov. McMullen has been whooping it up early and late, so that although Bryan claims to have been one of the early discovy- erers and proponents of the general scheme to control farm surplus, there is no issue here. The Bryan experiments in public ownership are to be given much exploitation after the primaries. When Charley was governor, he opened one small station and threatened to open others. Shortly afterward the price went down 3 cents, then 3 cents more here and also, may be re- marked, in other Stafes. Pointing to this, Mr. Bryan tflls the voters he did it and that Que to his fight against profiteeri $9,000,000 a year was saved Nebraska’s flivyver drivers. It looks like an interesting fight and wherever one travels he finds the politicians all asking: ‘Will Charley manage to come back?”’ Judging from places like Hgast- £0 Phone Main 3550 High Grade 39 PRINTING Service a.

Absentee landlords who live in the cities, retired farmers and tenant farmers are most inclined to dis- cuss it, but among the soil tillers one finds quite as much skepticism expressed over the efficacy of the bills that failed at Washington as there is support for them. Out in the smaller communities they talk more about rail rates and Panama competition than about surplus con- trol, and one uncovers a sentiment among many Nebraska farmers who own their acres that most of the noise comes from politicians and the leaders in farm organizations.

Lots of the old favorites are still doing their bit to put the St. Pats over, and Father Francis J. Hur- ney, with his uncanny faculty for digging up new talent, has un- earthed several youngsters who, in our humble opinion, will go far in the mimic world. Of course, little Mary Deery, whose name, somehow, seems to fit her perfectly, is one of the outstanding (figures, while Orme Libby and Elizabeth Gorman seem to do anything there is to do, terpsichoreanly speaking. This Lib- by boy especially handles himself well and should be destined for a career either on the vaudeville stage or in pictures should his fancy turn that way. James Barr sings well and Royal | Foster, Cliff Cox and the two Fe- gands, S. and L., have a dandy comedy quartet number. Estelle Murray, of course, does the ex- pected good singing and graceful dancing and Clara Roehrle is an exquisite dancer, but we have been used to expecting good numbers from this talented pair. The St. Pat Revue is worth see- ing, not from a kindly impulse to help out a worthy cause or to en- courage the home boys and girls, but purely from a hard-boiled, want- your-money’s-worth desire to see a real show. The:.company is going to New York next week and, thanks to Mr. Perez, they are going to more than make good. HARRY HITES. RIALTO The cognoscenti hereabout, who | let their passion for literature lure} them into reading tales so well delineated in the pain-| less newspaper-serial-form, will de-| light, no doubt, to know that ‘‘Foot-| loose” has been scenarized and that’ this same epic is holding forth this | week as the headliner at the Rialto. | The story, which now comes aSs| “Footloose Widows, local screen one of the most delight- | ful farce comedy creations to flicker | landslide. here in recent months. It comes | as a refreshment after so many hot| summer weeks of mediocrities. The | picture tells the story of two man- | nequins from Gotham, who set | forth to win laurels in other fiolds. | In. this Beatrice Burton master- | piece, the low-comedy Louise Fa-| zenda and the lovely Jacqueline | Logan shine in the lead capacities. | They are palmed off to the ungsus-, pecting Florida merchants as 4a “rich young widow and her girl friend’’—who come to Florida with the avowed purpose of winning hus- bands. The comedy motif is sup- plied through the old hokum of duplicate names, whereof two J. A. Smiths appear: one as a millionaire and the other as a fortune hunter. With this delightful material in hand the picture is made to rollick along to a climax and denouement, to the mutual satisfaction of the paid customers. Prominent in the supporting cast are Jason Robards, Neely Edwards, Mack Swain and others of less note. As a subsidiary attraction the Rialto is offering the Maryland Col-. legians—an aggregation of young- sters from Baltimore who interpret modern jazz in their own way. The: only criticism to be offered is that their offering seems as young as they are. Rounding out the bill is a Krazy: Kat comedy, the usual orchestral | embellishment and a well rendered interpretation of the delightful ‘‘William Tell’? overture by the Rialto orchestra. PALACE An alluring, fascinating bit of feminity, Clara Bow romps through the several reels of ‘‘Mantrap’’ at the Palace this week, absolutely dominating the picture from start to finish. This dainty maiden, with a “come hither’’ quality about her that the writer has seen in only one other picture star, Clara Kim- ball Young in her prime, manages to retain her allure, even under the) trying circumstances engendered by, ragged clothing and a smutty face. | And Clara Bow makes the pic-' ture. Without her ‘Mantrap’’ would fade into nonenity. It is not a great story and, probably due to the influence of Sinclair Lewis, who wrote it and who is prone to offer weird life contrasts, the cast- ing is hard to understand. Why a flippant, fascinating flapper should desert the pleasures of life in what she is pleased to term ‘‘Minneapple sauce’’ for a mate of the type por- trayed by Ernest Torrence and go to the backwoods to live with a man of the hill billy, celluloid collar wearing, uncouth type, old enough to be her father is hard to under- stand. How such a type man would con- beautiful young wife is another question that “‘passeth understand- ing.’”’ And when the inevitable man comes on the scene (a hard-boiled New York lawyer seeking to get away from women) the inevitable happens. He decides to leave to get away from her and she promptly company him. The husband finds them. With his rough mountain philosophy he has come to understand that the man is not really to blame, and she leaves them both. The final result is the flapper re- turning to her husband, but still ready to flirt, while the experience has changed the woman-fearing bachelor lawyer into a woman fusser. . A Sennett comedy, newsreel, Topics of the Day and Tom Gan- non’s music round out a program ‘for variety, the uplifting | | Thorne (and successfully) decides to ac- that furnishes good entertainment. With Judith Anderson, the bril- liant Belasco — star headlining, Keith’s has a bill this week which should suit the most exacting taste. Miss Anderson, who was last seen here in ‘‘The Dove,” has for her yehicle, a playlet writ- ten by Vincent Lawrence, called “Thieves.’’ It offers the star ample opportunity to show the histrionic ability that has placed her among the foremost emotional actresses of the American stage. The headliner is assisted by Frederick Macklyn, Roger Pryor and Charles Lewis. As,an extra added attraction, Meyer Davis’ Willard Roof Garden orchestra, directed by Nathan Brusi- loff, nearly stopped the show. Mr. Brusiloff in selecting his numbers apparently made a happy choice as yesterday's audience was loath to let them stop. Tom Low, the banjoist, sang several numbers, and Roma Frances Medford did a solo dance. Alice Zeppilli, a dramatic soprano and former prima donna of the Chi- cago Opera Co. and the Opera Comi- que, Paris, makes her debut in vau- deville. Miss Zeppilli sang several selections which found favor with her hearers and concluded the with an old favorite in English. Will Morris opened the bill with “Just Wheels,’ which improved as it went along. Eva Esmond and Pat Grant covered the deuce spot. Grant is a dancer of the first water and Miss Esmond gets off some good comedy. Jack Joyce, the boy with the smile, calls his act ‘‘Nothing Is Impossible,’ in which he shows that adversity is not necessarily a handicap. Thomas B. Handers and Arthur Milliss take the comedy honors with a delightful piece of nonsense called “This and That.’’ It is impossible to keep a straight face while this pair are before the footlights. Frank Reckless and company close the show with a trapeze offering that is all its name implies. The usual house features, Pathe News Pictori- al, Aesop’s Fables and C. Frederick Clark’s orchestra round out a bill that is far above the average. COLUMBIA The Gold,’ Columbia, is exceptional—especially the scenes of the desert sands and the mountain cliffs. |play, too, is deserving scenic beauty of ‘Desert of special mention for the vivid filming of the | three fugitives ’ ‘brings to the! the continual falling of rocks on the | in the sandstorm; “Slope of Death,” and **Desert the great Gold’ has also all the thrills of fighting, bandit villainy, heroism and daring races, tempered by an idealistic romantic love theme. The popular story from of Zane Grey gives a new twist to the old story of one girl and the two men who loved her devotedly —and one who wanted her. Robert Frazer has the role of | Dick Gale, who leaves his New York, home for the wild West to find out for himself if his father is right in accusing him of having no sense of honor or trust. Dick arrives in the West opportunely. He finds that the home of the fiancee of his friend, Lieut. (played by Neil Hamilton), has been plundered by the bandits. The fiancee, Mercedes (Shirley Mason), had escaped and was_ seeking and safety at Casita. Thorne, having arrived at Casita, has discovered the bandits there be- fore him, and having secretly en- tered the hotel finds himself sur- rounded by the bandits and unable to warn or help Marcedes. Dick, however, takes up the search, finds the pen they seek the desert and refuge, zuided by Mercedes‘ devoted Yaqui Indian. -But fleeing from the vil- lainy of man, they face the perils of sandstorms, landslides and parching ithirst on the burning desert sands. And amid these things love comes to the fugitive with Mercedes ever mindful of her pledge to Thorne, and Dick bound to respect that pledge by the greatest laws of friendship. The villain pursues Mercedes to the desert, the Yaqui Indian makes the supreme sacrifice ‘to save the mistress he worshiped and in a touching climax Thorne renounces his right to Mercedes in order that she might find happiness. Supporting the feature film are a Glenn Tryon comedy meaning- lessly entitled ‘“‘The Cow’s Pa- jamas;” International Newsreel, an interesting scenic and music em- bellishment by the Columbia or- chestra directed by Leon Brusilof. METROPOLITAN Crandall’s Metropolitan theater remains closed until Saturday of this week, when one of the most pretentious programs in its history will be offered in the newly rehabili- tated playhouse. The reopening bill will be featur- ed by Colleen Moore, supported by Lloyd Hughes and a splendid cast in “Ella Cinders,’ a clever film version of “Cinderella In The Movies.”’ constituting the basis of the comic strip being run in The Washington Post. The extra added attraction will be supplied by Bernardo De Pace, ‘‘wizard of the mandolin, ”’ and a new ‘Helen and Warren” two-reel Fox comedy will add to the distinction of a bill that will be rounded out by a new issue {" of the Metropolitan World Survey and the superb musicianship of the Metropolitan Symphony, under the conductorship of Daniel Breeskin. CENTRAL Viola Dana and Robert Agnew are the co-stellar players in ‘‘Wild Oats Lane,’’ Producers’ latest re- lease, being shown. the first two days of the present week at Cran- dall’s Central theater. The story is ove of the underworld and regen-. eration, in which the two celebrated stars are given ample scope for their recognized talents. The comedy through today is Mack Sennett’s ‘‘Wandering Will- ies,’ a new two-reel release, in which all of the Sennett beauties and comedians take part. showing this week at Loew's act The photo- | ing. George Thorne: ‘Mercedes in the clutches of a half-/}: ‘wit bandit, rescues her and together Coheadlining an excellent bill this week at the Earle are “The Volga Boys’ and Russell and Mar- coni. The former comprise a dou- ble quartet who render. several songs in their own pleasing man- ner. The latter present instrumen- tal music of “Little Bits of Big Hits,”’ including ‘‘Horses,’’ ‘Sweet Child”’ and other popular numbers. They were very entertaining. “The Purple Prince,’ a comedy travesty of Shapespeare’s ‘‘Hamlet’’ vies with the above for top honors. Songs and dances by the cast make the audience wonder with them ‘what Shapespeare would think to a his tragedy turned into come- Pe. “The Three Rubes”’ also deserve special mention. They combine music, dancing and acrobatic som- ersaulting, and produce the result in a very commendable manner. Anna Chandler wins the audience With her entertaining manner. Her rendition of some new and witty songs gains her applause. | The film feature of the week is ‘‘Meet the Prince,’ starring Joseph | Shildkraut, ably supported by Mar- | guerite de la Motte, Julia Faye and | Vera Steadman, It is the story of Prince Nicholas of. Russia, who is made an exile to America with his sister as the result of a red revolu- tion. In New York the prince, financially low, at last decides to marry the heiress, Cynthia Stephens (Vera Steadman). But before he proposes’ to Cynthia, the prince meets Annabelle Ford (Marguerite de la Motte) and falls in love at sight. Annabelle, however, also for financial reasons, is prepared to ac- cept Peter Paget, oil magnate. To increase his hope of winning Anna- belle, Paget takes lessons in man- ners from the prince’s sister, Prin- cess Sophia (played by Julia Faye). Annabelle and her aunt visit the Paget lodge where Paget has de- cided to propose; but the prince, suspecting his intention, is secretly engaged as butler and comes be- tween them at every turn, arousing much hilarity at the comical situa- tions he creates. Earle Newsreel is the additional film attraction and the bill is fur- | ther supplemented by the excellent music of Alexander Aarons, concert organist, and of the Earle Theater | orchestra, Floyd Wheeler conduct- i | | TIVOLI W. C. Fields, veteran comic of the Ziegfeld revues, vaudeville and musical comedy, is the pictured star at Crandall’s Tivoli theater through today in his new Paramount release, “It’s the Old Army Game,” into which have been incorporated many of the most effective of his stage comedy devices. The fun is appre- ciably added to by the clever as- i sistance of Blanche Ring, sister-in- {law of Thomas Meighan, Mary Foy, | Mickey. Bennett, George Currie and others of note. The shorter comedy for the first bill of the week is entitled ‘“‘Creeps”’ and is an amusing contribution to | the gayety of a program that meets fully the irresponsible demands of the “‘silly season,”’ which is upon us with its high temperatures and ditto humidity. Abbreviated camera subjects and excellent pipe-organ accompaniment and solo intervals by Otto F. Beck and Ida V. Clarke round out the en- tertainment. " AMBASSADOR A thrilling comedy-romance is unreeled during the action of ‘‘The Social Highwayman.”’ being shown aS foremost feature of the bill at Crandall’s Ambassador theater the first two days of the present week, with Dorothy Devore, John Patrick and Montagu Love in the roles of primary importance. Others of note in the cast include Frank Brow nlee, Fred Kelsey and Russell Simpson. The Warners have given this sub- ject an unusually clever production, with many laughs_ interspersed among the situations of more dra- matic caliber. The three pivotal charaeters are played with rare facility by the distinguished actors cast in the major roles. The added comedy is one of the most engaging of recent release, being Hal Roach’s ‘‘Never Too Old,”’ which may or may not be a real title. The bill is completed by short-reel subjects of varied _ in- terest, and excellent pipe organ music. 3 VITAL STATISTICS a BIRTHS REPORTED. William and Anna Hildenberg, boy. Joseph R. and M .

The knockout, as Jefferies tells the story, oecurred when he just ‘put the gloves on with Corbett in the latter’s training camp in Car- 'zon City, Nev. Accounts of the meeting at that time and since, however, have credited Corbett with knocking out Jeffries, then a raw but powerful youngster recruit- éd from a Los Angeles boiler shop to serve as a sparring partner for | Corbett. “Corbett didn’t knock me out; I knocked him out,’ Jeffries is quot- ed as saying. “The cry that he knocked me out was just a bally-hoo for the fight— to worry Fitzsimmons and boost Corbett’s stock by crediting him | with a knockout punch.”’ ad So ELANEY (Corbett’s manager) told me to say nothing and to be sure not to contradict it if any one asked me, and I never did. But there’s no reason why the truth shouldn’t be told now.” (By A. | According to Jeffries’ version of ‘the affair, which occurred behind ‘locked doors, his temper was arous- ‘ed by an attempt to have him ex- ipose his chin for a knockout blow |from Corbett. | “They wanted to see if Corbett had a punch and they got me to step in and leave my chin uncovered while he took a punch at me. It made me mad to know I’d been tricked. My lip was out against my teeth, but Corbett never knew it. [ rushed him and mixed him for a minute, then I got a punch over. I hit him and knocked him against the wall so hard he nearly went ‘hrough. Then I pasted him a cou- ple of good ones there and his hands dropped. He was done for ‘and another punch would have fin- ished him. They rushed in and pulled me away and gave me time to cool off. There was not any more boxing that day.”’ MAPLE HEIGHTS ENTRIES.

The newest Nat is no youngster, being in his twenty-eighth year. He is nearly 6 feet tall and weighs close to 200 pounds. Upon his graduation from the University of North Carolina in 1921 he signed with the Yanks and was farmed to Rochester, being recalled in the fall and traded/to the Red Sox in the winter of ’23. He was released to Mobile in 1925 and won ten and lost nine games last year. His record with the Gulls this season is nine victories in fifteen starts. ' QO seen here this season was made in the second inning of yesterday’s game. O’Rourke, on second, started to steal, but when he saw Ruel’s peg: had him beaten, he hustled back toward second. Bluege’s toss went all the way to right field and “Blackie” tried to score on the overthrow. Joe Harris’ rifle-like throw caught him at the plate. NE“ of the freakiest plays According to reports received here from Birmingham, Baron fol- lowers are greatly peeved with that Club for turning Pitcher Alvin Crowder over to the Nats. As the ‘‘General’’ was the ace of the South- ern, and Birmingham has a chance to cop the flag, Birmingham’s fol- | lowers think he would be worth more to the club right now than the cash and two pitchers they re- ceived in exchange. Walter Johnson and Dutch Rue- ther will pitch the first two games in the Chicago series which opens tomorrow, with Crowder likely to get another chance on Thursday, ac- cording to Pilot Harris.

In one or two other frames the Nats staged mild threats, but always something bobbed up to take the joy out of life.

Promoter Jim Mullen plans to | stage the contest in the Cubs’ base- | ball park on the night of September 10 instead of on Labor day after- noon, as originally planned. He will make application for a permit at a meeting of the State athletic commission Tuesday. Taylor, long regarded as the out- standing challenger for Rosenberg's crown, has pursued the New Yorker for several months in an attempt to force him into a championship match. AYLOR’S manager, Eddie Long, it is understood, has guaranteed the cham- pion $45,000, and will gamble with Promoter Mullen on a per- centage basis, paying Rosenberg out of his end of the purse. | The fight in the Whité“Sox ball park yesterday, in which Taylor | won on a foul from Tommy Ryan, of | McKeesport, Pa,, in the third round, |drew $26,685, with an attendance —— ~ ~ ~~ } 1388 & 87 14th §?

P.). An affidavit filed in court may settle the question of who it was that remodeled Jack Dempsey’s nose. - It also may establish the fact that the champion’s new nose can stand a 25 per cent heavier punch than his old one. The affidavit is attached to a summons and complaint filed‘yester- day by attorneys for Dr.. William E. Balsinger of Los Angeles, asking an injunction to restrain Dr. Luis P. Berne, of this city, from claiming credit for the operation. Dr. Balsinger says: “On or about the eighteenth day of August 1924, I remodeled, straightened and ‘errected’ the nose of the said Jack Dempsey.

Each year Camel wins the favor of a growing army of expe- rienced smokers. Camel leads because of Camel quality. No other cigarette made can match Camel goodness. Catnel is made of the choicest Turkish and Domestic tobaccos grown, master- fully blended as in no other ciga- rette to give you all of their mild and mellow flavors. In all tobacco time there has never been such a favorite as Camel, for Camel goodness has no equal. For sheer quality of tobaccos, for deep: ‘down smoking en joyment, for favor with smokers, Camel stands alone, supreme among cigarettes. Camel is the world’s favorite be- cause Camel pleasure never palls. You simply can’t smoke enough of them to tire your taste. No one ever smoked a Camel and-re- gretted it. Camels never leave a cigaretty after-taste. We believe that your first real smoking pleasure will come when you taste the smoke from the finest tobaccos nature produces. The world’s largest tobacco organiza- tion invites you to try now the favorite of millions of experienced smokers. Have a Camel! R. 1; “Reysatds Tobacco Company, ‘Winston- Salem, N. Ceo

But the explana- tion, according to bankers, is simple enough. A large public following was in the stock market in Febru- ary, and at that time bonds were deposited as collateral for stock market loans. On the big decline these loans were eliminated. The buying since that time has been for strong interests, who were not com- pelled to put up bonds as collateral. | but were able to take out their own private lines of credit at the banks.

This acts as a sustaining influence in our security markets.

Confidence is felt, however, that Secretary Mel- lon, who is now on.his way to Eu- | rope, will bring about the accept- ance of a stabilizatiou plan which will not only bolster the franc, but will put an end to the controversy over the American debt and help the French government balance its budget.

WALL STREET GOSSIP New York, July 25 (By A.

Developments in most of the leading branches of industry and trade have been reassuring. per cent in- lamb crop, a Prices of membership on the New York Produce Exchange have made sharp advances in the last week pre- liminary to the opening of a grain futures market on August 2. One seat was bought at a new high fig- ure of $3,150. Memberships re- cently have been bought by Winni- peg operators, millers in Baltimore, Duluth, Buffalo, Kansas City, Chi- cago and in Liverpool, either to trade actively in the market here or hedge here against purchases in the other markets. The effect of the general strike gn the British iron and steel indus- try was to cause most of the 147 furnaces in blast at theendof April to be damped down or blown out, says the Bankers Trust Co. of New York. At the endof May only 23 furnaces were in operation. Pig iron production’ fell from 539,100 tons in April to 88,000 tons in May. Steel production fell from 661,000 tons in April to 45,700 tons in May. These figures compare with monthly averages of 855,000 tons of pig iron in 1913 and 519,700 in 1925. The 1913 monthly average of steel production was 638,600 tons and 616,400 tons in 1925. Belgian Economic Conditions Improved (By Associated Press.) An optimistic view of general economic conditions in Belgium was presented yesterday by the Cham- ber of Commerce of the United States through publication of a study made for the American sec- tion of the International Chamber of Commerce. The study points out, however, that the task assigned King Albert of rescuing the falling Belgian frank and stabilizing currency is ‘‘difficult, particularly in view of the disturbing influence of the fall- ing French franc.” ‘‘But,’’ the chamber’s announcement said, ‘‘de- spite the difficulties encountered in what is characterized as a courag- eous effort at currency stabilization, the survey discloses that funda- mental conditions in Belgium show marked improvement since the war.” Syndicate to Offer Utility Firm Shares a A syndicate headed by Howe, Snow & Bertles, Inc., has purchased and will shortly offer a new issue of 18,240 shares, $7 cumulative pre- ferred stock of General Public Util- ities Co, the management of which, together with its subsidiaries, is under the direction of Day & Zim- mermann, Inc., of Philadelphia. General Public Utilities Co., In- corporated under the laws of Flor- ida, operates directly or through its subsidiaries, a group of electric, ice and water properties in 68 cities and towns in Louisiana, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Nebraska, South Dakota and Florida, serving 37,400 electric and water customers in 57 communities with a population es- timated in excess of 180,000. The export of Polish coal is de- veloping favorably, showing a con- tinued rise, the American Polish Chamber of Commerce and Industry in the United States reports. - In the first half of June 427,000 tons of coal were exported, a gain of 151,500 tons over the first half of May. Increased purchases were made by England, Austria, Czecho- slovakia, Denmark and Hungary. The New York security holders’ committee for a fair return for the Northwestern railroads, organized by Roosevelt & Son, is mailing a letter to all who supported the com- mittee, stating that the railroad executives will be asked immedi- ately to take steps to correct im- proper rate relations in the North- western territory. The committee has declared that the failure of the railroad executives to agitate for rate relief was largely responsible to grant the increase requested. eingine | lamb | that | 'ciated Press)-—More tangible evi- os — ~ N BUSINESS LINES Many Predictions Made of Prices .

HOSEA & MOULTON PROGURED TO PUSH BACK-PENSION BILL Beneficiaries Agreed to Pay One-Third, Retired Po- liceman Says. COERCION IS NOT USED David E. Langley Explains Part He Played in Passage of the Measure. Retired firemen and policemen themselves sought the services of Hosea B. Moulton, attorney and past commander of the local Grand Army of the Republic, for the pur- | pose of putting the back pension bill through Congress, David E. Lang- ley, retired policeman who assisted Mr. Moulton with the bill, said yes- terday. ERighty-six of the pensioners bene- | fiting by its adoption at the last ses- | sion of Congress are now requested .to turn over to Mr. a fee one-third of their the fund, it has been revealed. The back bill period from January 1, Zasy SU. 1915, was said Moulton oft share of a | to covered 1911, there pension during which to be a shortage of taxes and fines which composed the vol- paid retired and dis- abled firemen and policemen at that time. it is said, was paid. was not paid, was the $68,425.06 designated by the back pension bill. Mr. Mouiton still out of the: city yesterday. was explained | that he had into Virginia Washington untary fund Some of the money, The rest. which was It made week-end trip! and will return to this morning. a Agreed to Pay One-third. According to Mr. Langley, the re- tired firemen and policemen went to Mr. Moulton and asked him to try to put the bill through, explain- ing that they needed and that every effort necessary bill passed had _ failed. | An agreement was then entered | upon, he said, bg which one-third | of the fund was to be paid as a fee | by as many of those as would be} willing to enter into the bargain. | Just how many of the pensioners made the request Mr. Langley did) not know. However, an effort was) then made to draw into the agree-| ment others of the 350 who have benefited by the bill. Mr. Langley| said yesterday that no coercion was| employed. One of the pensioners’ said yesterday that he had ‘“‘signed a paper pledging to pay a reason-| able amount” after receiving a_/| number of letters from Mr. Moul-| ton. | Mr. Langley said that he had’ been ‘‘suggested to Judge Moulton” | by one of the pensioners, who re-| cited to him “the work I did in} putting through the bill to equalize) the pensions of firemen and police-| men, which passed Congress three| years ago.”’ | In regard to this bill, Mr. Lang-| ley told the following story: | the money, | to have the! Langley Tells His Story. | “I was retired from the police| force in December, 1918, and since | I was one of the highest paid police-. men, and the maximum salary at) that time was $1,320 a year, I re-' ceived a pension of $55 a month. | “When the raise was given the| year after I retired I saw that dis- | crimination would result to those | who were retired before that time. | Then I sat down and wrote the first bill to equalize fire and police pen- sions that was presented to Con- gress. “I was assisted by two friends, one a fireman and one a newspaper correspondent. The first bill was killed. I wrote a second that was not reported out of committee. But the third bill passed. *“‘T devoted the greater part of three years to this work. And for the accomplishment I was volun- | against tarily paid about $800 by approxi- mately 80 persons. One man sent me $50.” And now, in reply to the protests made by some of the pensioners against the payment of one-third of their checks, Mr. Langley said: Calls Pensioners Ingrates. “They are nothing more than in- grates. “They certainly would not have obtained their money had somebody not taken upon themselves to g0 after it. Any one who has tried to get a bill through Congress knows you have got to be on the job at all imes.”’ Explains Pension Payment. In regard to the matter of back pensions, Mr. Langley explained that until 1916 the pensions paid retired firemen and policemen were collected from dog taxes, and from police and fire board fines. In 1916 the pension bill was passed. He said that about one-third of the 86 pensioners have already pald Mr. Moulton the one-third fee, and in case all paid in full, Mr. Moulton would still receive ‘only $7,000 or $8,000 for a labor that required nearly three years.” One of the protesting pensioners who admitted signing the agree- ment, explained his viewpoint ag follows: ‘Although I don’t feel under any obligation in the matter, I will be glad to pay Mr. Moulton a reason- ‘able amount if it is through. his in- fluence that the bill granting the money was passed. “7 will not pay one-third, be- cause I think it is excessive. It doesn’t seem right that we should have to pay so much, for instead of receiving interest on the money due us so long, we must pay the interest ourselves. “Gince the passage of the bill equaling pensions, things have greatly changed. Mr. Moulton does Progress of Woman As Worker Depicted | | Progress of in industry | and changes in industrial methods affecting women are graphically de- picted by means of a delineascope, | on the screen, and by paintings in, exhibits of the women’s bureau of the Department of Labor at the) sesquicentennial exposition. In allegorical form are depicted | adventures of ‘‘any girl’’ compelled | by misfortunes to travel the path | of the wage earner. Her difficulties | as a worker in the “forest of preju | dices,” next as a married woman, then as a widow, and finally as an old woman driven to the poor house , by poor industrial conditions, are contrasted with the easier and hap- | pier life of a woman employed in | a plant with good industrial condi- tions today. MAN ARRESTED, ACCUSED UF RUNNING OPORT POOL oe ramon Wemen Complaints of Supposed Win- | ners Cause Apprehension | of Martin Loewe. I$ SAID TO ADMIT GUILT Martin Loewe, 27 years old, 1916 | Sixteenth street northwest, who, po- ar P ‘lice state, admitted that he was the 'operator of the National weekly ‘baseball pool,’’ was arrested at his ihome early yesterday by Central Office Detectives Arthur Scrivener and Edward J. Kelly. He was | charged with violating section 869 | of the Distriet code, which prohibits | lotteries and pools. Loewe’'s arrest followed the com- plaints of three men, who asserted that they had won pool awards but had failed to recefve them. S. J. Ralston, 826 Ninth street north- west, said he won first prize and Should have been awarded $500. John J. Lindsay and Joseph Long, | 'both of Seldiers Home, complained that their awards of $170 and $80. | Tespectively, had not been received. | In Ralston’s case, Loewe told po- lice, the complainant submitted a photograph copy of the. winning slip. He made no explanations as to the other claims. According to police, hundreds of i slips with a combination of baseball teams in both major leagues are sold each week. The combination | making the highest numbers of runs and hits gained first awards. while awards were made for the second and third highest combina- tions. A campaign last summer alleged pool. operators | cleaned the city of them, police state, and very few are operating | this year. 3 ASSOCIATIONS ASKED TO HELMICK MEETING Support for General as Com- | missioner to Be Urged in St. Alban’s Tonight. In an effort to enlist the support | of more citizens’ associations to the | candidacy of Maj. Gen. Eli A. Hel-| mick for appointment as District | commissioner, three associations | have been invited to meet with the | executive committee of the Ca-| thedral Heights Citizens association | at a meeting called by the presi- | dent, Hugh M. Frampton, in the St. | Alban’s parish hall at 7:30 o’clock | tonight. | Mr. Frampton would not name's the identity of the associations. Mr. Frampton stated last night | that he had received about 75 tele- | phone calls yesterday from persons | who promised to write to President | Coolidge urging the appointment of | Gen. Helmick. Since the middle of | last week Mr. Frampton declared | that he had received a stack of let- ters 1 foot high, all supporting his | candidate. Catholic Alumnae Plans for Meeting The alumnae of the Holy Cross school met yesterday in the Acad- emy of the Holy Cross, Chevy Chase. Miss M. Louise Darr, chair- man of the program for the con- vention of the International Fed- eration of Catholic Alumnae in North Bend, Ind., September 4, called the meeting for the discus- sion of convention plans.

Daugherty, at Temple Heights, Holds Parents at Fault. ‘“‘When we shove our children out in the world over broken-down fam- ily altars we should not be sur- prised at their derelictions,’’ the Rev. Simpson B. Daugherty, newly appointed pastor of the United Brethren church, declared at the open-air service at Temple Heights iyesterday afternoon, under the au- lppices of the grand lodge of Ma- sODS. Banditry and other forms of present-day crimes come from lack of proper home environment, the pastor indicated. He applied the aame reasoning to national ail- ments, stating that ‘‘no nation can rise higher than the ideals of its homes.’’ The Rev. Mr. Daugherty asserted that the United States should not be surprised at the bitterness of france and other nations, ascribing the cause to ‘the way in which peace was drawn up to suit the sel- fish interests of the nations that predominated in the peace confer- fence.,’’ ‘Couple Celebrates | Golden Anniversary i Mr. and Mrs. John R.

She was born in Stafford county, Va. Mr. McCathran was born in this city. He was retired from the Washington navy yard in August, 1920, after having been employed there for many years as a crane operator. Science Reveals God, Rev. Dr. Gordon Says The invariable constancy of scien- tific laws was held to be “the strong- est possible evidence of the continual presence of God in the universe” by the Rev. Dr. C. M. Gordon, of At- lantic City, N. J., in his sermon yes- terday morning at the First Congre- gational church, worshiping in the Washington auditorium. Only false reasoning, Dr. Gordon asserted, can hold that “the reign of law puts God out of business.” When we use the laws of nature we are cooperating with God, he con- tended.
