P.) A tehtative decision barring an English magazine from the Unit- ed States because it contains an advertisement foralcoholic liquor was made known today by cus- toms officials. A section of the national prohi- bition law which makes it illegal to advertise “anywhere and by any means” manufacture, keep- ing for sale or furnishing of liquor,’’ was cited by Edward Barnes, acting solicitor of the customs office. He said that the monthly, the Key to London, published by the American information bureau, was temporarily barred as an “illegal importation” pending a final decision by Federal authori- tics because it told where, in brand of cherry brandy. bean of one might buy a certain JA tive J.

Jeff Busby, of Houston, incum- bent, was leading J. F. Smith, of Derma, by 2,701 to 321 when re- turns had been obtained from five of eleven counties in the Fourth district.

Cheyenne, Wyo., Aug. 17 (By A. P.).—Scattering returns in Wyo- ming’s primary election from nearly every section of the State tonight gave State Engineer Frank C. Em- erson a slight lead over Secretary of State Frank E. Lucas, for the Republican nomination for gover- nor. Twenty-six out of 683 pre- cincts gave Emerson 244 and Lu- cas 148. The winner of the Republican nomination will oppose Gov. Nellie Tayloe Ross in the November elec- tion. She is unopposed for the Democratic nomination. The only national office involved in today’s primary is that of rep- resentative in Congress at large. Charles E. Winter, Republican in- cumbent, has no primary opponent, and the Democrats have no candi- date listed on their ballot for the place. China in First Move To Renounce Treaties (Special Cable Dispatch.) Geneva, Aug. 17.—China has taken the first step toward the de- nunciation of her customs treaties by officially notifying Belgium that the tariff pacts of extraterritorial- ity will automatically terminate October 29. This action, special Chinese tariff commission, carries out the threats made re- cently by both Chao Hins Chu, Chi- nese Minister at Rome, and Alfred Sze, Minister at Washington. According to official information, Peking is preparing to renounce all existing treaties three months be- fore the extension period arrives. Abrogation of Belgium's treaty will be followed by similar action in regard to the American, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Italian, French and British treaties.

AUGUST SPANISH WAR VETERANS HAME COMMANDES TODAY Four Candidates in Field for Office; Organizations Join ‘Parade. ALLIED ‘GROUPS ELECT Des Moines, Iowa, Aug. 17 (By A. P.).—Delegates to the twenty- eighth encampment of the United Spanish War Veterans and allied or- ganizations here cut short their business sessions today for their an- nual parade. They were joined by veterans of the civil and world wars, regular army units and the national guard and citizens’ military train- ing camp students now in camp here. Business sessions were devoted to selecting nominees to be voted upon tomorrow, when the veterans will decide upon next year’s convention city. El Paso, Detroit and San An- tonio have extended invitations. A successor to Carmi A. Thomp- son, national commander, who was unable to attend because of his mis- sion to the Philippine islands for President Coolidge, will be chosen from a group including Senator Rice W. Means, of Colorado; Har- vey H. Hanna, of Nashville; Frank B. Dodds, of Lawrence, Kans., and Carl G. Juneau, of Milwaukee. Nom- inations for senior vice commander include C. Neel Markham, of Ports- mouth, Va., and William A. Daw- kins, of Brooklyn, N. Y¥ Carl A. Anderson, of Omaha, and William Berlch, of Indiana, were nominated for junior vice com- mander. The Rev. Ezra C. Clements, of Owatonna, Minn., is ynopposed for chaplain. Blanche J. Barker, of Boston, is unopposed for president general of the auxiliary. The Naval and Mili- tary order selected Captain Robert Waukowski, of Culver City, Calif., as commander in chief, and Col. Christopher T. O’Neil, of Allentown, Pa., was elected senior vice com- mander. Greetings from Commander Thompson were sent to the veter- ans. ‘“T have been selected to a duty I must perform,’’ he said, ‘‘and I shall do it to the best of my abil- ity, and in order that no man or party shall say he or it has a mort- gage on my opinion or my re- port, I shall pay every cent of my expenses and those of my staff.”’ Judge Edward S. Matthias, of the Ohio supreme court, noted a 10 per cent gain in membership of the organization and stressed the need for greater publicity. He also urged the veterans to maintain permanent headquarters in Wash- ington, D. C. Still Arrests Denied By Chicago Attorney Chicago, Aug. 17 (By A. P.).— Edwin A. Olson, district attorney, today denies the report made yes- terday that his office and that of E. C. Yellowley, prohibition ad- ministrator, were planning whole- sale action against merchants who sell stills and other paraphernalia for the manufacture of liquor. ‘‘No move to take these men be- fore the grand jury is contemplated by this office,’’ he said, ‘‘nor shall I have any conference with Mr. Yellowley.”’ BALTIMORE GIRL FORGED FROM CHANNEL IN STORM Miss Cannon’s Stride Wins Praise; Soon to Try Swim Again. Cape Gris-Nez, France, Aug. 17. (By A. P.).—The storm gods were not so kind to Lillian Cannon, of Baltimore, as they were to Gertrude Ederle. The Baltimore girl, started early this morning to beat her New York rival’s trans chan- nel record, was forced to give up the attempt after two hours and 35 minutes in the water. first hour everything went well with her. Enthusiastic friends aboard the accgmpanying tug were sure she would set a new mark. But the elements were against her. A terrific thunderstorm came up sud- denly, with much lightning, and the heavy squall piled up the waves which, meeting the rushing tide, made a choppy sea that daunted even the trawlers. Miss Cannon, plucky swimmer that she is, was undaunted by the rising sea and wanted to continue, but her advisers on the tug in- sisted that she come out of the water. “T won’t let a little thing Jike a storm beat me,” she said. “T’il try again at the first favorable tide.’ Thus she declared herself on board the tug even before she had got the seawater out of her eyes. Some of the experts on channel swim- ming were so favorably impressed with her showing that they are con- fident that, granted anything like a favorable condition of tide and weather, she is bound to succeed in her attempt to swim the channel. All were rather chary, however, about predicting that she would beat Gertrude Ederle’s record. Bissingen, Germany, Aug. 17 (By A. P.).—Gertrude Ederle to- day told the Associated Press that she was prepared to take on all male and female challengers in a channel swim for a purse of $20,- 000 before starting for the United States. who For the 1661 ing completion. in 5 and 9 Room Apartments On Crescent Place Just West of 16th St. Luxurious apartment suites are now near- apartment in Washington.

FATHER OFFERED TO DIE Lincoln, Nebr., Aug. 17 (By A. P.).—Donald Ringer, 19, the young- est person to receive the death sen- tence in Nebraska, today won his long battle for life when the board of pardons commuted his sentence to life imprisonment. Decision to commute the sentence came after hearings Monday and today. Yesterday Ringer made a personal plea to Gov. McMullen and other members of the board. He denied each of the five confessions he is alleged to have made and asked for ‘a fair deal just once in my life.’’ Ringer was accused of slaying and robbing Carl Moore, automo- bile salesman in 1924. He was ar- rested at Gulfport, Miss. Ringer's companion, George Bender, has never been apprehended. The board stipulated that ‘‘no further pardon, commutation or parole ever be granted to this ap- plicant.”’ Last week Ringer's father of- fered to die in his son's place, and later the boy’s sister made a plea to the board in his behalf. Coin Harvey Held Sinking. Rogers, Ark., Aug. 17 (By A. P.).—W. H. (‘‘Coin’’) Harvey, critically ill at his home at Monte, Ne, near here, was said to be growing weaker today.

Dr. Lobdell said her license had been revoked ‘‘because I have been honest about it.’’ ‘I issued several prescriptions for friends who were going traveling,”’ she said. ‘“‘Then I issued several more for culinary purposes—for cooking and making eggnog. My mistake, it seems, was in being per- fectly honest about it—-writing on the prescription exactly what I is- sued it for.’’ Declaring that physicians have always resented the act of placing the prohibition problem on their shoulders. Dr. Lobdell said she couid not see that liquor is more medici- nal today than it was before prohi- bition. She was informed when her books were examined, she said, that “they are not near as ‘bad as most of them, but I had been careless.”’ She said she informed the examiner that ‘‘it was perfectly all right to revoke the license because I can get all I will need for my purposes from those who still have the privilege.”’ Your Empty House will not be empty long if you list it in the houses for rent columns of The Post.

KITCHENER BODY HOAX IS DENIED BY POWER Newspaper Man Says Box, Found Empty, Tampered With; Repeats Claim. London, Aug. 17 (By A.

That some one tampered with the ‘‘Kitchener casket’’ was _ inti- mated by Power .in the interview attributed to him by the Star. The paper quotes Power as saying con- cerning the empty shell inside the casket: “It obviously can not be the shell whicl contained the body and which T placed in the coffin in Norway.” Power, with his wife, re- turned from Portsmouth at noon today. He visited Scotland Yard, but what took place has not been divulged. At another point the Star quotes Power: “IT have a clear conscience in the matter and am not seeking shelter behind the law.

BATH OF VIRGINIA DARE Sir Esme to Speak at the Un- veiling of Monument to Her Today. OTHER EVENTS RECALLED Roanoke Island, N. C., Aug. 17 (By A. P.).—Statesmen of two na- tions, high church and military dig- nitaries and thousands of natives and visitors will unite tomorrow to commemorate the birth 339 years ago of Virginia Dare, the first Eng- lish child born on the American con- tinent. A monument is to be un- veiled at Manteo, marking the spot where the child was born. The prin- cipal speaker will be Sir Esme Howard, British Ambassador, who will speak from a rostrum erected under huge oaks near where the baby was christened the Sunday fol- lowing her birth. The unveiling, while it is to be the outstanding event of the observ- ance, constitutes only a part of a week set aside for the purpose of commemorating historic happenings at the now isolated spot. Here was planted for the first time the Eng- lish flag on the newly discovered continent. Here was born the first white child of English parentage, and here occurred the first Christian baptism, later to be followed by the disappearance of the entire colony from the face of the earth, and of which no trace ever has been found. It is to commemorate these events that a “home-coming week” is being held all this week with some special observance each day, Gov. McLean of North Carolina. who was expected to introduce Sir Esme, probably will be unable to attend. Representative Lindsay C. Warren, of North Carolina, whose efforts in Congress were responsible for a Federal appropriation for the Virginia Dare marker, will deliver an address of welcome and will in- troduce the distinguished guest if Gov. McLean is absent. Gov. Byrd of Virginia also was among those expected to attend, but it could not be learned tonight whether he would make the trip or not. Aside from the address of wel- come by Representative Warren and the address by Sir Esme, no speeches are scheduled.

P.).-—Gunfire flaming from the rifle of Paul Baran, 50-year-old pros- pector, took three lives today in a modern revival of the feudal days of Western gold camp history. Self-defense and the right to pro- tect his mining claim were given as Baran’s reason for the shooting in the wilds of Mariposa county. His victims were Theodore Shastner and Victor Shimonoieff, both of Oakland, Calif., and Harry Clark, of Dabney, N.. C.

Panic reigned among the 40 tenants of a four-story building at President street and Fourth avenue, Brook- lyn, early today when a bomb was exploded on the top floor, doors were blown open, windows smashed and plaster fell, but no one was seriously injured. The explosion was of such vio- lence that police could, not find even a fragment of the bomb, but experts said that it must have been filled with dynamite. The bomb had been placed against the door of an apartment occupied by Bia- nanati Sebastian, who, with his wife and six children, were literally blown from their beds. He said he had no enemies. VALENTINO REPORT SHOWS NO CHANGE Temperature Rise Follows Fairly Good Day; Crisis Expected Soon. New York, Aug. 17 (By A. P.). Despite a rise in his temperature tonight, the condition of Rudolph Valentino, motion picture star, was reported ‘‘unchanged”’ in a bulletin issued by three surgeons who op- erated on him Sunday for appendi- citis and gastric ulcers. An’early bulletin said star had passed a fairly satisfac- tory day at the polyclinic hospital, to which he was rushed after col- lapsing in his apartment Sunday night. No mention of the local peritonitis, which set in following the operation and made Valenti- no’s chance of recovery doubtful, was contained in tonight’s bulletin. The crisis is not expected before from 36 to 48 hours. Valentino's temperature rose when night came, but physicians said this was not cause for undue anxiety. Early this evening his temperature is reported as 103; respiration, 26, and _ pulse, 198. During the day his temperature was 101%: pulse, 100, and respira- tion, 22. Valentino’s former wife, Jean Acker, sent a telégram say- ing she expected to sail for Europe Friday, but would endeavor to see him before she sails. that the Leviathan Steward Fined on Rum Charge New York, Aug. 17 (By A.

The woman told authorities first that she killed the child Thursday Morning while her husband was at a store and gave jealousy as the cause, Later she said she had always wanted to kill just for the thrill of killing. John Winkle, father of the child, believes she was struck in the head with an ax and that her throat was cut. He says the child was killed Friday, as tracks of a person, whom he thought was a man, following the girl to the woodpile, where blood was found, would have been oblitegated by the heavy rain of last Thursday night. A blood-cov- ered ax was found back of the wood- ile. r Wounds on the back of the body and skull indicated to authorities that she was struck as she was try- ing to escape. Physicians said that cuts from a razor, though not deep enough to cause death, were found on the body. Novella had been visiting in the Tipton home for two weeks before her disappearance. A preliminary hearing wikl be held tomorrow morning. The slaying has aroused deep feeling in the mountain community, the scene of the crime.

RESIGNATION REPORT DENIED BY KELLOGG FROM that 12-year-old (CONTINUED PAGE 1.) among banks, insurance companies and r®ortgage and loan companies that will release frozen farm finan- cial paper along lines similar to the pool organized in Northwestern States two years ago by large insti- tutions for the relief of smaller banks in that territory. No Knowledge of Pool. Published reports, however, were denied today that the President was moving to bring about a $100,- 000,000 private banking pool in one or more financial centers for, loan purposes on farm property. He was said to have no knowledge of such a movement. A report that the President had issued an order to the prohibition enforcement officials in Washington against a program for placing un- palatable or poisonous substances in industrial alcohol to make it unfit for beverages was denied. Mr. Coolidge did not even know, it was asserted, whether he or the prohibition unit had authorities un- der the law to adopt such a course. No one had spoken to him on the subject, it was emphasized; he had never heard of any such plan and he had never given any directions con- cerning industrial alcohol. No Change Toward Mexico. Informed through a personal re-| port by Secretary Kellogg of the ‘last aspects of the Mexican situa- tion, President Coolidge today au- thorized the reiteration that the policy of the Washington govern- ment was one of nonintervention in Mexican domestic affairs. The government of the United States, it was said on behalf of the President at the summer executive _ offices, has no authority under di- | The coroner's jury today | Novella | whose body was discovered | ' Prebident Receives Pie. | Made of 5, 000 Cherries Paul Smiths, N.

The pie was baked in Traverse City, Mich., Saturday and brought’ here in an automobile by W allace H.

The two reported that they were held up in Canada by a po- lice officer for speeding,but were explained their mission. explained to proceed when they * .) plomatic usage or international law or treaty rights to interfere in the purely domestic matters of Mexico. Although Mr. Kellogg had come to White Pine camp prepared to re- port to Mr. Coolidge on his recent conference in Washington with James A. Flaherty, supreme knight of the Knights of Columbus, no di- rect reference was made in the statement of the government’s po- sition to the petition of that order, at its Philadelphia meeting, asking that the United States intervene to protect. Catholic churchmen in their dispute with President Calles of Mexico. No Reference t®Mexico. Neither was there any reference to the position of James R. Shef- field, American Ambassador to Mexico, who is en route to the United States for a vacation and a personal report to his superiors on the situation in that country. There have been indications that Mr. Sheffield would like to see a atiff- ening of the Washington govern- ment’s attitude in its ofl lands con- troversy with Mexico. He is to con- fer with Mr. Kellogg in Washington next week. Whenever the rights of American citizens as to the persons or prop- erty are infringed in a foreign coun- try, it was made clear, the Ameri- can government will do what it can to see that they are duly respected. In so far as the religious contro- versy in Mexico is concerned, it :was added, Secretary “Kellogg has knowledge of but one specific com- plaint concerning the taking of church atc in Mexico. That THE WASHINGTON POST: CALLES FACES GRAVE PERIL IN LOSS OF ARMY SUPPORT (CONTINUKD FROM PAGE 1,) Calles’ communistic tendencies mean trouble for the people of Mexico, according to the latest re- ports. Like Serrano, Gomez is said to be waiting until the time is ripe and watching the outcome of the present disturbed condition. Calles has secret agents watching Gomez, according to yesterday's re- ports. The third army group is in com- mand of Gen. Amara, who is secre- tary of war. Outwardly Amara is friendly towdrd Calles, but the lat- ter regards him as ambitious and has taken steps to keep close watch on his activities. Meanwhile, Alberti J. Pani, min- ister of finance, is said to have warned Calles that certain trouble is ahead and to have offered his resignation, which Calles has not accepted. Candido Aquilar, who was minister for foreign affairs in Carranza’s cabinet, and Luis Ca- brera, are reported to be encour- aging Calles to go even farther in his extreme policies. Accordingly, judges of the courts and clerks of thé courts who are suspected of dis- agreeing with the Calles religious policies are being asked to resign, There appears *o be no direct connection between the leaders in the church controversy with Calles and the weak spots which are de- veloping in the military support upon which the Mexican president relies to maintain his power. The church leaders have announced pub- licly that they do mot favor any- thing resembling military force, and specific complaint was lodged with Ambassador Sheffield, who, it was said, made representations to the Mexico City government and was informed that the case would be adjusted. In reference to the oll lands con- troversy, it was asserted that Mexico had made large concessions to the United States but there still were a number of matters not definitely | determined. AS a general rule, day, American citizens have suffered in- dignities in Mexico, as that is a broad term. Some Americans have been expelled from Mexico, it was said, under article 33 of the Mexi- can constitution, which gives the government the right to expel for- eigners. it was said to- used against Americans without suf- ficient justification, it was added, it has been the practice of the Ameri- can Ambassador at Mexico City to intercede — sometimes successfully and sometimes unsuccessfully. Beginning Monday, August 23rd, and continuing through September 29th, this Bank will be open from 9 A.M. to 3 P.M. on Week Days and from 9 A.M. to 1 P.M. on Saturdays —except on August 3lst and on September Ist, 2nd, 15th, 16th and 17th, on which days the Bank will remain open until 5:30 p.m. MORRIS PLAN BANK Under Supervision U.S. Treasury 1408 H Street N.

But the Mexican soldters themselves, to- gether with many of the officers who command them, are said to be inclined to show less devotion to the government than in éhe past. According to a report which has escaped the censorship and reached diplomatic circles here, many of the Mexican troops threw down their arms in the clash between fed- eral troops and religious worship- ere at Atoyac in the state of Guer- rero. Gen. Amarillas ordered his men to fire into the crowds of wor- shipers, who refused to be driven away, and when the first women were shot down the soldiers turned their guns on Gen. Amarillas and killed him, it is stated. The crowd was then driven to the church and dynamite was thrown on the federal troops who sought to avenge Amarillas. Fourteen Women Slain. This dispatch, which has attract- ed attention here, states that four- teen Mexican women were later executed at Zacupa and Acambaro. It naturally is difficult for officials here to check up on the Accuracy of dispatches, as the Mexican gov- ernment is apparently seeking to suppress all news of disorders. Reports that President Calles would seek the extradition from the United States of de la Huerta on ‘“‘nonpolitical grounds” are awaken- | ing interest here in the widespread | Calles program to nip revolution- ary movements in the bud. But it is difficult to see how the United States can extradite de la Huerta for a nonpolitical offense alleged to have been committed more than three vears ago. The statute of limitations would in any event act as a bar to extradition, it is stated. | Besides, the United States govern- ment has already had one experi- ence with the government of Mex- ico respecting the turning over of Mexicans charged with nonpolitical offenses. Gen. Demetrio Torres was turned over to the Mexican authori- ties near San Antonio about a year ago after the Mexican officials sol- emnly had assured the United States government that he would not be treated as a political prisoner. He was charged with a political offense and shot down within 24 hours after reaching Mexico. The Department of Justice is pre- paring to institute proceedings against the alleged filibusters under arrest at San Diego, Calif. The law prohibits using American territory as a base for expeditions against a friendly government. J. H. Grande Freed From Mexican Jail Mexico City, Pay 17 (By A. P.). J. H. Grande, of Los Angeles, re- cently arrested on a technical charge of fraud on complaint of the Mexi- can Banana Co., has been released from jail. The Mexican authorities announced that there was “insuffi- cient evidence” against him, and the charges against Grande have been virtually dismissed, according to the construction given to the situation by United States officials, although the case has not actually been wiped off the court docket. A condition of Grande’s release is that he shall not leave Mexico until the complainant has had an oppor- tunity to present further evidence, if it is so desired. Swedish Queen Is Weaker. Stockholm, Aug. 17 (By A. P.).— Latest bulletins from Solliden; Oeland, indicate. that Queen Vic- toria’s condition is somewhat weaker, Sweden’ new premier, Carl Gustav Ekman, is also ill in bed suffering from a blood clot, but his condition is not alarming. WEDNESDAY. A west 18, 1926. REVOLT PLOT IS LAID TO MEXICAN WOMEN (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) seized Sunday night when Gen. En- rique Estrada and his “command” were taken near San Diego. Information was obtained indicat- ing that a second movement had been contemplated from Imperial valley, presumably in eoordination with Estrada, but that it had_ dis- banded when word of Estrada’s ar- rest was received. Adolfo de la Huerta, former provi- sional president of Mexico, has been living here incognito for several weeks. Federal officers who were engaged in trailing alleged revolu- tionists through Imperial valley, stated. they did not believe de la Huerta-was in any way concerned with the movement led by Estrada. San Antonio, Tex., Aug. 17 (By A. P.).—The San Antonio Light says today that Mexico will ask the United States for the extradi- tion of Adolfo de la Huerta, former provisional president of Mexico; En- rique Estrada, now in jail at San Diego, Calif, as alleged leader of a revolt against lower California, and all leaders who participated in the de la Huerta revolution in 1923. The paper quotes as its authority Amilear Zentella Sanchez Marmol, comptroller general of Mexico un- der de lg Huerta and now a mem- ber of the chamber of deputies. He is here gathering information on the de la Huerta movement. Depu- ty Zentella said the specific charges will be maladministration of funds. Court Cites EK. B. Dean, Jr. Edward B.

NO MEDDLING IN MEXICO. President Coolidge has made clear the fact .that he will pursue.a policy of ‘‘hands off’’ in The’ United "States will try to protect its citizens’ every- ‘the Mexican religious quarrel. “where in the world, but the Mexican contro- versy as such does not concern the United - States. Mexico’s expulsion of aliens, includ- ‘ing Americans, can not rightfully draw a pro- ‘test from the United States government unless ‘in the process Americans are deprived of lib- -erty or property. The United States exercises - the right to expel or exclude undesirable aliens ‘and it would not permit another government -to challenge that right. ' The American Federation of Labor has re- ‘ceived appeals from Mexican church represen- -tatives and also from labor representatives ‘asking it to take sides in the quarrel. It re- ‘fuses to do so. A semiofficial statement sets ‘forth the attitude of the federation. The ‘tendency of organized labor in Mexico to - range itself in antagonism to religious or- _ganizations is deplored by the federation, but ‘the controversy is regarded as a domestic : Mexican problem, to be solved by Mexicans “without outside interference. Individual Americans are free to hold and - express their opinions regarding the contro- -versy in Mexico, and there is no danger that _they will be reluctant to express themselves. The United States government, however, can not properly become a partisan, Its duty is ‘to maintain a strictly neutral attitude and to avoid any intermeddling with Mexican affairs. .A BUSINESS BAROMETER. _ The periodical reports of the condition of the Federal Reserve banks are a fairly good “index of the general credit and business condi- ‘tion of the country. There are four items of importance which measure this level of credit and business conditions—total invest- ments, total loans, total deposits and total money (Federal Reserve notes) in actual cir- ‘culation. The last report of the Federal Reserve Board ‘covering the condition of 698 reporting banks belonging to the reserve system, shows that ‘total investments of the several banks were $5,612,309,000, an increase of about $130,000,- ‘000 over the same period a year ago. These ‘investments, or assets of the banks, are in ‘government securities and other bonds, stocks ‘and securities. The volume of these invest- ments rises and falls in response to business “activities. Total loans and discounts, that is, accommo- ‘dations, last week were $14,109,807,000— about $8,450,594,000 being- on stocks and bonds. This last item was about $430,000,000 ‘above a year ago—not a good sign—but was $9,000,000 below a week ago. Commercial loans were $8,450,594,000, which was $90,- 000,000 above’a week ago and $340,000,000 above a year ago—a good sign. Demand and time deposits last week were about $18,681,000,000, which was a slight de- crease from a week ago and a year ago. De- mand deposits increased. . Federal Reserve notes in circulation last week averaged about $2,009,800,000, which | ‘was about $100,000,000 more than a year ago. An increase in the volume of Federal ‘Reserve notes, if normal and confined to com- mercial business, is a sign of health. The Fed- ‘eral Reserve banks are reservoirs of credit, and the four main items in every report of the ‘Federal Reserve Board serve as a barometer of the general business of the country and the movements of credit upon which business de- ‘pends. — A DINNER THAT MAY BE EPOCHAL. ‘Breakfast in New York in the morning and ‘dine in London on the evening of the same ‘iday.”” This slogan of the airmen, which has ‘hitherto represented an ideal seemingly im- ‘possible of attainment, has inherent in it the ‘yirtue that it spurs adventurous souls to make ‘more strenuous efforts to bring it nearer and “ever nearer to realization. ‘‘Excelsior” is, in “many senses, a good motto. * Something, which, if achieved, is destined “vw maze the ultimate goal appear less remote, ‘is to be attempted. When Capt. Rene Fonck _ ‘and his companions begin their transatlantic } “flight, it is their intention to carry with them ) - _‘w hot dinner, cooked in New York, to be _ servy- »% ‘ed, still hot, to Americans in Parig on the ar- | | ‘dishes, packed’ in vacuum ‘containers, will be ‘*~‘rushed by motor car to Roosevelt field, Long ®.

The whole plan is meant to be practical and, on the face of it, may seem materialistic; but behind it there is an illuminating and inspiring thought and faith—the same sort of thought and faith that carried Columbus across the ocean to the discovery of unknown land and, at a later date, drove the pioneers ever westward to cope with and subjugate the wilderness. There is no one so bereft of imagination and vision as not to wish that the Sikorsky airplane may come through its difficult task in accordance with anticipations. ITALY HARD AT WORK. Nothing would please the average Ameri- can more than to learn that all European countries were actively at work, with optimis- tic spirit, with peace established and produc- tivity restored. The disabilities of Europe are not a matter of gratification in the United States. On the contrary, the never-ending tale of misfortunes and hardships coming from Europe acts as a damper upon travel and com- mercial intercourse, and unquestionably dis- suades. American interests from undertaking new enterprises in the Old World. But the activity of Italy is in sharp contrast with the situation in other parts of Europe, and may be justly regarded as a strong factor in enlisting the sympathy and cooperation of Americans. Col. Edward Clifford, former Assistant Secre- tary of the Treasury, who has just returned from a motor trip through Italy, thus describes conditions: I was astounded at the industry of the people of Italy. The old song, “Every- body Works but Father,”’ is not sung in Italy. Father is working, and so is grandfather and great-grandfather and the boys and girls, noblemen and peas- ants, all ages and all classes. Idleness is acrime. The eight-hour day has been ex- tended to nine. There are no strikes and no labor disputes. “Order, discipline and work,”’ is Mus- solini’s motto. And it is having its ef- fect. We must cease to regard Italy as a country only of the past. United Italy. is a nation of the future. Though poor in material resources, it is rich in the poten- tialities of its law-abiding, frugal and happy citizens. Capital is needed. Italy offers a fine,opportunity for American in- vestors. The Italians of all classes re- spect and admire Americans. Americans who go to that sunny land meet a cheer- ful welcome and are treated with kindly courtesy. Mussolini’s dictatorship evidently appeals to the Italian people. They needed a leader, and having found him they gladly confer power upon him. If he continues his policy of ‘‘order, discipline and work,’’ while avoiding imperialistic adventures, Italy doubtless will find full and profitable employment within its proper field. It should be the commercial and financial mistress of the Mediterranean basin, and its manufacturers and traders should hold the markets against all competition. Peace production, and not territorial expan- sion schemes, will transform Italy and- enrich its people. They are energetic, artistic and inventive. They deserve a government such as Mussolini is establishing, in which individ- ual and national industry has full opportunity to produce wealth. Italy’s material resources will prove to be far greater than is commonly imagined, if the energies of the people can be directed to their development without mis- government and without rumors of war. MORE PER ACRE. Economistspof the Department of Agricul- ture have net studying the question of the nation’s futur@ food supply, to determine how much the crop,yield per acre can be increased by means of modern methods. It is discovered that crop yields per acre in the United States have been increasing stead- ily for the last 40 years. The heavier total production is due more to increase per acre than to increase in acreage. A study of the period between 1920 and 1924 reveals the fact that about 400,000,000 bushels of corn, 120,000,000 bushels of wheat, 165,000,000 bushels. of oats, and 115,000,000 bushels of potatoes, or a total of about 800,- 000,000 bushels, were produced in 1924 over the production in 1920, due entirely to inten- sive production and improved soil fertility. The increase of production per acre will de- pend largely upon the prevailing average price of the leading farm products. Rising prices will naturally result in intensified cul- tivation and more generous and scientific res- toration of soil fertility. ee “NOTHING DOING.” The circuit court of appeals of the Sixth district has rendered an opinion to the effect that a subcontractor can not collect damages arising out of possible profits cut off and sus- pended by cancellation of a war contract. The substantial question involved in the case was whether under the provisions of the act of June 15, 1917, and the “emergency shipping fund’’ provisions of the act of Oc- tober 6, 1917, a contractor under agreement to supply lumber for Shipping Board vessels could recover for possible profits lost because the war ended and the contract was annuled. The court decided that the Shipping Board, through the Fleet Corporation, had the power to make the contract and to suspend the same, upon making just compensation. ‘‘Possible profits,’’ the court decides, do not come under the head of ‘‘just compensation.” Such cases are relics of the world war. The shipping experiences of the government during the world war cost the taxpayers something like $3,000,000,000. That is enough. A NEW MOTOR FUEL. Reports of the production of a synthetic motor fuel by German scientists will be of in- terest to the motor world. Manufacture of the fuel appears to be so practicable that active negotiations have been entered. into by fuel interests in this country and Great Britain to obtain production rights from the German dye trust. Although details of the process are being guarded, it is presumed that the new fuel ig obtained by a coal distillation process. Recently the capitalization of the German. dye trust was increased, and in London the opinion prevails that the additional funds were re- | > é ate ; 2 ity, ee * Te is 7 . he: R f i x ov .: sed /~ aeo.7. a - , . = dye 3 a ah ee wed Vp nf vr, - ” is a ¥ ras é ; wy ‘ se : * - quired | to enter into immediate commercial production of the fuel. With the oil supplies of the country dimin- ishing there have been made mary attempts, stimulated also by the high price of gasoline, to produce satisfactory substitutes. Some time ago the Ford Motor Co. engineers experi- mented successfully with the production of benzol. This is produced from shales, of which there are large deposits in many Western States, the product being used as a mixture with gasoline rather than as a straight sub- stitute. Naval experts have also been highly successful in mixing denatured anhydrous al- cohol with gasoline, in the proportion of three parts alcohol to seven parts gasoline. The result has been a stretching of gasoline supply without sacrificing any power. It is understood, however, that the German experiments are along totally different lines, and that the substitute is a complete motor fuel of itself. If it turns out to be practical, and can be utilized without further attach- ments to the engine, it will prove a great boon. PERSHING AND THE LEGION, A few weeks ago George Washington Post No. 1, the pioneer post of the American Legion, officially and unanimously indorsed Gen. John J. Pershing, one of its charter members, for national commander of the American Legion. Delegates to the next departmental convention to be held August 27-28 were instructed to present his name, and to make a canvass of the convention to make certain that his name will be presented to the national convention in Philadelphia next October. It is hoped that Gen. Pershing will be elected by acclamation. George Washington post is to be congratu- lated upon taking the first step in this matter. The next commander of the legion will be the leader of the “expeditionary convention” to be held in September, 1927, in France. ‘Ten years ago Gen. Pershing led a great army to Europe. It would be very appropriate for the same commander to lead another great army in a peace-time invasion. This association of former service men is still in its formative stage, offered to able men in its leadership is un- limited. Aside from the sentimental consider- ation of promoting better relations between France and the United States by means of an expedition to that country, the possibilities of the legion in fostering good citizenship are such as should appeal to Gen. Pershing. AIR MAIL CONTRACTS. Charles Dickinson, operator of the air mail contract route between Chicago and St. Paul and Minneapolis, has notified the government that he wishes to relinquish his contract. Giv- ing the customary 45 days’ notice, he says that his enterprise, so far, had been operated at a large loss, and that all air mail lines are losing money. If true, this is undoubtedly a serious situation. There was an unfortunate tendency on the part of commercial aviators at the time the Kelly bill was passed to consider it a direct aviation subsidy, sugar-coated for the benefit of the constituents back home. To a very minor degree this may have been true, in that the bill was designed to encourage commercial flying. In the larger aspect, however, it sim- ply provided the Postoffice Department with the necessary authority to make. contracts. Instead of being subsidies, air mail contracts are purchases by the government of postal transportation. No air mail line can be run at a profit today with only the income from the government. The use of air mail is not yet extensive enough, especially on the feeder lines. But the growth of air commerce is assured, and air mail con- tracts, now unprofitable, will be in sharp de- mand. Albania has joined the coterie of powers which approve of the conditions attached by the Senate to America’s adherence to the so- called world court. The ocher powers in ques- tion are Cuba, Greece, Liberia and Uruguay. The Tri-State Packers association, with headquarters at Easton, Md., is urging the tariff commission to investigate with a view to increasing the import duty on foreign canned tomatoes, largely from Italy. Some folks in Maryland are: beginning to realize the value of an adequate protective tariff. ERS An optimist is a man’ who thinks he can persuade a pessimist to change his mind.

' The Worst Story I Heard an Today—By Will Rogers The Worst Story I heard today was told to me by an Englishman. As Shakespeare so aptly said, ‘‘the story is the thing.” There is no use telling what Englishman told it, be- sides there is a Libel Law in England. A man and his wife were driving an old horse and buggy along a Country road. The road was narrow, but there was grassy level ground on each side of the road., As they proceeded a farmer drove a heavy loaded farm wagon out of a field on to the road, making it impossible to pass unless you drove out around him. The farmer said, “‘Do you mind just pulling around on the grass, Lady?’ ‘‘Mind?”’ snapped the lady, “Of course, I mind. You must back your team.” “It’s a heavy load, ma’am, and the horses is tired, if you don’t mind?” answered the farmer. “You ought to have thought of that before you pulled out there. You ought to have known I was coming,” said the Lady. Then the husband interrupted, just in time to get himself in dutch, “Pull around, my dear.” ‘? shall do nothing of the sort. I won’t pull around, and it’s just like you to fail to = me ‘your moral support in a crisis of this A smile come over the old Farmer's face. “I'll back my team, Mister,’”’ he said.

Maybe there are advertising men who do not rise above this con- fidence-man philosophy of their profession. If there are such men in the business of advertising, it is a case of the littleness of the man libelling the largeness of the mission. The nature of the advertising profession is such that the advertising man is challenged to a wide knowledge of men and of materials, if he is to be more than a peddler of epigrams. The advertising man is a liaison officer between the materials of business and the mind of the nation. He must know both well before he can serve either wisely. I do not know another servant of the business world who daily faces a greater challenge to social statesmanship than the advertising man. Facility in framing slogans is only one of the minor tools in the advertising man’s kit. He must study much in order to say little, if he is to say it effectively. He must know the social order thoroughly before he can serve the business order thoroughly. The tone and temper and economic health of the social order is the soil in which the business enterprises must grow. Upon the thinness of fertility of that soil the success or the failure of the advertising man’s adventures must largely depend. The business order and the social order are too intimately related for the advertising man who aspires to be more than a tricky tradester to tear them apart in his thinking. The really great advertising man knows that a good business cannot be permanently maintained in a bad civilization. And this is why the great advertising man must be a statesman as well as a salesman. Then, too, the really great advertising man must be as much inter- ested in increasing the sanity of consumption as in increasing the size of consumption, for great businesses are not built upon fads that are worthless and passing, but upon appetites that are worthy and per- manent. The advertising man need not go outside of his profession to find a playground for his sense of values.

A Good Word for the Cop. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: [I note with considerable satisfac- tion that the commissioners have stated publicly that they are be- hind the head -of the police de- partment who demands that police- men ‘shall be courteous at all times and that they shall not roughly handle ‘‘suspects.”’ May it not be equally advisable for the commissioners and the head of the police department to stand behind the policemen in publicly declaring that policemen are en- titled to the same courteous treat- ment from the public? The position of a police officer ig as respectable and honorable as that of any other officer of the gov- ernment—and as important. He is the visible evidence of the rule of law, because of his immediate and intimate contacts with the public under the most trying and unfav- orable circumstances, where “snap judgment’’ must be exercised in many instances. He has not the time to weigh pro and con, nor has he the setting of a mahogany desk in a specially equipped room to im- press those whom he meets at the crucial moment. I understand that the ‘‘bobbies” in Great Britain do not carry ‘re- volvers except when ‘on special or dangerous details; but I further understand that the ‘“‘bobbies’’ in Great Britain are backed up by un- sentimental heads of police depart- ments and court officers, and that the citizen who treats the ‘‘bob- bies” with discourtesy jis subject to the hazards of a fine or imprison- ment with no allowance for ‘‘good behavior.” The obligations of the citizen are less onerous than that of the policeman, and his duty less diffi- cult to perform than that of a. peace officer. If the police officer gets .a “square deal’’ from. the citizen, his job would be about like that of the hero in a movie. GROVER W. AYERS. Washington, August 17. Have a Good Time, George!

Shooting Up Damascus, ‘ To the Editor of The Post-——Sir: Turning today to my favorite read- ing (the immortal covenant of the League of Nations), I noted a thing that had never before conveyed its full beauty to me. In article 22 of the covenant, 1: mandates article, it is specifice[sy provided that ‘“‘certain communities formerly belonging to the Turkish empire’ (as, for instance, Syria) ‘have reached a stage of develop- ment where their existence as inde- pendent nations can be provisionally recognized subject to the rendering of administrative advice and assist- ance by a mandatory.” So you are to understand that Syria is an independent sovereign nation and that the Senegalese and Senegambian and Tunisian and Cir- cassian French-paid conscripts ang mercenaries who seem to be shoot- ing up Damascus are merely “‘rea- dering administrative advice and assistance.’” Don't forget it, dear sir. f B . ; ‘Washington, Aus. 17. f

The fact that Ruth is taking a night sthool course in law and also her direct businesslike manucr make an excellent impression on the lawyer and he engages her at once. Harry davis, a young man from Ruth's home town, who. is in love with her, is likewise in the employ of Barton, and it was through him that she learned of the position. Ruth likes Harry, but she ia determined on a successful business career rather than marriage. She is sharing an apartment with two seisters, Edna Mathews, who works in a downtown bank, and Hattie Mathews, secretary to a great criminal lawyer. Masie Andrews formerly occupied the apartment with the girls. but ts now living alone, although Riccardo Martinez, an unacropulons adventurer, has the key to her new apartment. Routh feels sorry for Ma- sie and remains her friend in spite of these circumstances. Ruth finds her new job with Rarton immensely interesting. She meets his mother, who is very patronizing, and she learns that his sister wants him to marry a certain little French countess. Then one day Mr. Barry Mohun will sail from New York today on the Mauretania to join his family, who have been abroad since early in June. Visiting in New York. Col. and Mrs. Robert C. Foy,! who returned from Europe on the Leviathan; are at the Hotel Astor in New York before coming to Washington. Maj. Rhinelander Waldo, who, with Mrs. Waldo. has been at the New Thayer hotel, West Point, N. Y., for the last month, went to the West Point hospital ‘to undergo an operation and is now on the road to recovery. Mr. and Mrs. Eidon King and their infant daughter, Nancy Page King, departed Saturday for Port- land, Oreg. While there they will be the guests of Mr. King’s parents, Judge and Mrs, William R. King. Mrs. William Wheatley, who has been taking a course in French at Middleburg college, Vt., is the guest of Mrs. William G. Johnson, at her summer home in Spring Lake, N. J. Mrs. Wheatley attend- ed the wedding of Miss Laura Win- der Marshall and Ensign Edgar D. Fisher, which took place yesterday afternoon. She will later depart Capt. Robert Henderson, of the United States navy, is at the New Thayer hotel, West Point, N. Y. William Brewer Fleharty Douglas Howard Kincaid Barton comments on the flowers on Ruth's desk presented by Harry, and Ruth asks Har- ry not to buy her any more. He is indignant and turns to Hattie for consolation. Imme- diately after this Ruth finds on her desk flowers from Barton himeelf. CHAPTER V. “Cross Currents.” LL during that day Ruth had A intervals when she sat, her capable brain in a whirl, her capable hands idle in her lap, star- ing at the crimson, velvety rose petals, as if to ask them a question. Of course, Peter Barton had put the flowers there. No doubt of it. Should she thank him? And how should she word it? And, suppose she was wrong after all and Barton had not been the donor, what a fool she would feel ‘should she express her gratitude. She could visualize the scene— blush as she did so: “Thank you for the roses, Mr. Barton!’”’ ‘“‘Roses?’’ His eyebrows would Mr. lift slightly. ‘I am sure I didn’t - * *,? No, no! She decided to let him speak of it first. Meanwhile, in Washington, Peter Barton was wondering what on earth had possessed him to do it. The great box of hot-house roses had come in from his Long island place late the night before. When, quite early the next morning, the hotel for about ten days. Mr. and Mrs. H. Wilkinson and Mrs. C. M. Dale, of this city, are amoffg guests at the Hotel Iroquois, Atlantic City. “Guess I'm in love with him!” she decided. Clear-minded, logical, she weigh- ed Ruth's. opinion of young Harry Davis. Not very ambitious, not very clever, a bit inclined to drift. Not the sort of husband for Ruth— who was impatient. But Hattie was not impatient. She had a re- former’s zeal and persistence. She would make something out of Harty—if she had the chance— something big. A little later she noticed that Harry was beginning to talk less about Ruth—and more about him- self. So Hattie became more satis- fied. For there was wisdom in her ‘small head—not only the wisdom learned in leather-bound law books, but the wisdom inherited from her first ancestress, Miss Eve—the one who talked too much with the snake. Hattie was typically American. She had typically American mo- ments of outspoken directness. So, one evening, she said to Ruth: “I’m crazy about Harry!” Ruth kissed her. “I’m so giad, dear———” “Wait a moment!” Hattie drew away. “I said that I was crazy about him—not he about me—at least not yet.’’ “Oh—how can he help himself, Hattie?’’ She wondered how much Harry iiked her; felt hurt when Harry. as he often did, spoke to her about Ruth—her treatment of him-——his complaints against her. ‘You’ un- derstand, Hattie! You are so sen- sible!’ | Poor Hattie! She would go home from these meetings with Harry end glare solemnly at her reflection in the mirror. Sensible! ‘Must be the fault of the beastly, disfiguring Spectacles, she decided one even- ing. She took them off; liked herself hetter without them. Her eyes, af- ter all, were lovely; her skin clear and fine; her mouth red and in- viting. “I shall leave off my glasses when I go out!”’ she made up her mind. “If I ‘bump against people—TI’ll bump!”’ She dined with Harry the next evening. She could not see well— ihe room was a wavering blur—— but could see well enough to catch an admiring look in Harry’s eyes across the table at Tony’s. ‘“‘You look bully, Hattie!’’ he said in mild surprise. ‘“‘What have you been doing to yourself?’’ Her eyes smarted, her temples throbbed when she went to bed that night. But she smiled.

Incongruous? Really? Why—she was such a prety girl— even if she was “all business.” Damn it—he added in_ his thoughts—he wanted her “all busi- ness.” So—why had he left those roses on her desk? He detested the type of business man who takes ad- vantage of his position to turn the heads of his women employes. Why had he done it? Ruth would think—things. and she would be wrong. He liked her; re- spected her; could not endure her imagining that he was taking the first tentative steps in the old com- monplace, sordid game—the old joke: “Boss and stenographer!” What was he to do? “Do nothing!” Peter the lawyer advised Peter the man. So he returned to New crossed Ruth’s office with a brisk “Good morning, Miss Welles. Every- thing all right during my absence?” “Yes, Mr. Barton.” Neither spoke of the roses, and this day passed, and others, each filled with its.usual business rou- tine. Now and again she went to his house to finish some work. Twice she lunched with him and his moth er. And she also met his sister, Mrs. Meredith Exeter, when she came to the office one afternoon, petite and smart, with a whorl of russet hair and superb, sea-green eyes beneath hooded brows. Her husband, small, wizen, insignificant, gray-eyed, gray- haired, gray-tweeded,: followed at her heel like a tame though. pessi- mistic Yorkshire terrier. Ruth was with Barton at the mo- ment.

Enormously learned, enor- mously wealthy, enormously aware of his blue blood; happy only when he was somewhere in the far wilds of Asia or North Africa in search of ancient ruins; his name a house- hold word among the world’s ar- cheologists; disliked on his native New York heath, yet looked up to because of his wealth and name—- such was Meredith Dexter. Nobody knew why he had mar- ried Nelda Barton. So frivolous she was. So exactly his opposite. It was rumored that he gave her a free rein—within reason. For it was also rumored that if anything really serious should happen, if scandal should taint her name— well—heaven help her! For there was hard, pitiless stee] beneath her husband’s insignificant outer shell. A few days later, when Ruth was Again lunching at Peter Barton's house, she happened ito overhear his mother say something of the sort to her daughter. “You must be more careful, my dear. You know what Meredith is like when his dignity is offended.” “You should have married him yourself, darling,” laughed Nelda And Ruth agreed with her in her neart. It was not that Mrs. Barton was exactly a snob, nor exactly un- kind. But she was so aloof—not quite human——and Ruth wondered, even worried, how Peter Barton could be happy in such an atmos- phere. , She spoke of it to Hattie, who replied, rather curtly: “I guess we each make our own happiness. And it’s up to nobody élse to interfere!’’ She spoke just a little guiltily; felt just a little guilty; hated her- self for feeling ‘ Why should she feel guilty? She ‘asked herself.

ga ’ THE WASHINGTON POST: WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 18, 1926. ~~~. — - am - PROFITS IN STORES IN LAST 7 MONTHS BREAK ALL RECORDS Volume of Retail Trade in U. S. Is Running Ahead of 1925, Banner Year. PROSPERITY UNBOUNDED IN SOME SPECIAL LINES Sales of Cigarettes 12 Per Cent Greater Than in 1925; Orders Press Factories. By WILLIAM P. HELM, Jr: The man behind the counter, Fed- eral reserve figures show, was pus- ier and made more money the coun- try over during the first seven months of 1926 than during any other corresponding. period in our history. Volume of retail trade through- out the United States is running from 5 to 6 per cent ahead of the banner volume of last year, the board’s survey shows. Only two districts, Cleveland and Minneap- Olis, fail to show a material in- crease over the same period last year. Those districts beat last year’s record but by emaller per- centage of increase than other dis- tricts. Nothing appears on the bysiness horizon to warrant the belief that there will be a decrease in retail trade during the balance of the year. Govefnmental ande private business forecasters have an- nounced their belief that the pick- up during the rest of 1926 will be even greater than during the first seven months. May Exceed all Years. If this optimistic prediction comes to pass, 1926 will ring up a bigger total of sales on the nation’s cash registers than any other year. In some sections, retail trade went over the top last month with an extraordinary push. Notable was the Chicago district, where the vol- ume of sales reported to the Federal Reserve Board by department and chain stores and mail order houses increased nearly 11 per cent over sales during July, 1925. In other words, for every $100 in sales dur- ing July, 1925, the reporting retail establishments in the Chicago dis- trict averaged $110.80 in sales during July, 1926. In the St. Louis district the in- crease in retail sales last month over sales in July, 1925, averaged more than 9 per cent; in the Dallas district it was nearly 9 per cent; in the New York district, 6.2 per cent; San Francisco, 5.5 per cent; Phila- delphia, 5.4 per cent; Atlanta, 4.9 per cent.; Minneapolis, 4 per cent; Boston, 3.5 per cent; Richmond, 3:4 per cent; Kansas City, 1.9 per cent, and Cleveland, 1.4 per cent. Sears, Roebuck and Montgomery Ward & Co., the two outstanding mail order houses, sold $114.60 worth of merchandise during last month for every $100 worth sold during July, 1925, the latter month having been the highest July on rec- ord up to the present year. Highest July on Record. The five leading chains of 5 and 10 cent stores sold $112.10 worth of goods last month for every $100 worth sold in July, 1925, the Federal Reserve Board states. And July of last year was the highest July on record up to 1926, for vol- ume of sales. For the first six months of 1926 here are some of the increases re- ported by big systems of chain stores and mail order houses over the same period of 1925, which had hitherto been the banner first half of any year. Sears, Roebuck sales increased from $118,000,000 in 1925 to $126,- 600,000 in 1926, or more than 7 per cent; Montgomery Ward from $82,426,000 to $95,217,000, or 15.5 per cent; F. W. Woolworth from $101,296,000 to $107,198,000, nearly 6 per cent; S.S. Kresge from $44,655,000 to $49,837,000, or 11% per cent; J. C. Penny from $35,669,000 to $46,075,000, or 29 per cent; National Tea from $22,- 626,000 to 26,466,000, or 17 per cent; F. & W. Grand from $3,249,- 000 to $4,402,000, or 35% per cent: Peoples Drug from $2,562,000 to $2,838,000, or 10.7 per cent; Da- vid Pender from $3,862,000 to $5,- 039,000 or 30.4 per cent and First National Stores from $25,979,000 to $29,453,000, or 13% per cent. Break All Recdrds. The first five months of the cur- rent year broke all records for these and other mammoth retail and mail order establishmants. Dur- ing June there was somewhat of a lull, the figures, taken from the companies’ own books, show. Not}. more than half of the/reporting companies showed a greater volume of trade in June, 1925, than in June, 1926. During July, how- ever, contrary to all seasonal form, sales picked up again, on the av- erage, at a high rate. During the early months of the year, footwear and apparel accum- ulated, a drug on the market, in many retail stores because of the retarded spring and _ inclement weather. In June and July, how- ever, these two lines of merchandise began to move in greater volume. With seasonable weather during ths remainder of the year, 1926 prob- ably will set a record of total sales much higher than during any year in the past. In some special lines, prosperity appears to be unbounded. At the beginning of 1926, a survey by the Standard Statistics Co., of New York, discloses, there were in use throughout the United States 116,- 000 electric refrigerators. Dur- ing the first six months of 1926, more than 250,000 additional elec- tric refrigerators were sold. One company alone claims to have more than 200,000 of its various models now in use. By the first of Octo- ber, it is estimated, 300,000 such devices will have been manufac- tured and sold this year. Manufacturers are hard pressed to meet orders. They figure, at the moment, that there is an im- mediate potential market now ex- isting for at least 2,000,000 elec- tric refrigerators throughout the country. The Delco Light Co., makers of the Frigidaire model, is now turning out 1,100 electric refrigerators a day and is building a new plant capable of turning out 50,000 a month. Ca- pacity operations have been reported by the Servel Corporation. Earn- ings of the Electric Refrigeration Co. were $4.09 per share of stock during the first six months of 1926. Its three constituent companies, Kel- vinator, Nizer and Leonard, report- ed net earnings of $5.09 a share during the first six months of the current year (before paying taxes), as compared with $4.32 per share during the full year 1925 and $3.09 per share during the full year, 1924. Cigarette smokers are building up this year the highest net profits ever recorded for the American, R. J. Reynolds, and Liggett & Myers to- bacco companies, which control the five most popular brands of cigar- ettes. Sales this year have been nearly 12 per cent higher than dur- ing the same period last year. Big Typewriter Profits. The Remington Typewriter Co./ made 22 per cent more in net prof- its during the first three months of 1926 than during the same period in 1925. Orders booked by manufac- turers of steel office furniture dur- ing the first four months of 1926 were $12,096,968, as compared with $10,405,135, during the correspond- ing period last year. The Rand Kardex Co. reported a 16 per cent increase in sales during the same period. The Shaw Walker Co. has had so much business that it has found it necessary to build a new factory. Fountain pen manufactur- ers state that sales this year are running far ahead of those in 1925. In almost every line the story is the same—an overwhelming increase in the volume of retail business this year over last. (Copyright, 1926, Current News Features, Inc.) District Contracts Awarded.

Breakfast Room F looring | PEGE MG SG E os WOK OND GASICH HE breakfast room, the terrace gy and the porch or sun room all seem to call for floors that are different from those found in the other rooms of the house. Many delightful effects are pos- sible with’ linoleum tiles set in a decorative pattern. The floor should be waxed when finished, and it will eventually acquire a delightful pa- tine. Cement and sand mixed right proportions make a flooring for « sun room or hallway. The cement may be lined off in blocks to resemble stonework, or painted in some interesting pat- tern. Before the cement becomes thoroughly dry select certain blocks and coat them with two or three layers of thick enamel paint, al- lowing each coat to dry wel] into the cement. Then go over the en- tire floor with a dark oil stain and finish with a final oil coat in which in tne beautiful Ihas been mixed a little burnt um- ' ber. ber stays in the cracks, antique ettect. giving an! When completed the floor can’ be given a coat of wax. Still a third effect can be got- ten by using cork tiles. These come in eight ineh blocks. Here and there at random insert a colored linoleum tile, in designs of ships, shells, dolphins, etc. -These motifs must be in scale with the room. A border of colored linoleum tiles will give the floor design a pleas- ing boundary. This type is espe- cially useful in houses of Spanish and Italian character, such as are being built in Florida and Califor- nia today. In laying such floors the secret of success lies in having them ab- solutely even. While the amateur might be able to do the work skill- fully, it is advisable to use a trained workman where intricate patterns are planned. (Copyright, 1926, (;arden.)

KNOTS ON THE NECK, YHE knots are also known as é kernels. Besides these, there is a long list of names. Tu- berculosis adenitis is one. Scrofula is another. King’s evil, still an- other. The very important ones are those due to infection with tuber- Cle bacilli. Dr. C. B. Gibson quotes an expe- rienced physician as saying that be- tween 50 and 75 per cent of all chil- dren attending dispensaries have knots in the neck that can be felt and that most of them are due to decayed teeth, enlarged tonsils or adenoids, stomach sores in the mouth, eczema of the face or head, or lice in the hair. If a parent feels small kernels in the child’s neck the chances are that infection with tubercle ba- cilli is not the cause. That is worth while knowing, since it is easy to rid the head of lice, curing eczema by changing diet is not difficult, taking proper care of the teeth or having them pulled is easy, and curing ton- sils and. adenoids is not exceedingly difficult. But getting around to tubercular infection of the neck glands, this is serious. It involves finding the source of infection in the first place. It may be necessary to kill off the family cow or to destroy a herd. It may involve boiling or pasteurizing the milk. And, finally, curing up tubercular glands is not a simple matter. In the days of old the only cure was to have the king touch Kings are getting If there were any Virtue in the king’s-touch-treatment the sup- ply of. kings would not be equal to the demand. In writing of the treatment of the tubercular glands Dr. C. B. Gib- son gives first place to treatment by sunlight. Most cases can be cured that wav. Old stvle operations are now rarely done. Here and there a ease calls for the old style opera- tion, but Such cases are few in number.

HIS question does not come _ from people of the social} world, because in that world | evening visiting is not a custom. There are theaters and operas and dinners and dances, and a genera! atmosphere of general amusement in which the young men and wom- en are already absorbed. They see each other at a dozen different places in the week, and, if a boy wants to go to see a girl «t home (and gets uptown early enough), he usually goes in the afternoon; that is, any time after 5 and before 6:30, till at least 7:30. if not 8, he has a short time for visiting at an hour when the family may have sepa- rated after their afternoon tea, and there’s no question of chaperoning. But evening visiting must be a cus- tom among a very pleasant can not play all evening and evening. It is a very sen- sible way, and a very sensible time. for a boy to pay visits to girls who ESTES | ,are at This is Se off, and the um-| really home then. Sometimes he likes the family life and games played by every one together. | Sometimes he likes just to talk to the girl. Now, it is never easy for two people to carry on sation when others, part in it, are listening. Tnerefore, if there are not two rooms, so that elders can read and youngsters talk in peace, selves from too close attendance upon children. Some reasonable excuse should be given——after all, you don’t want the young man to feel that you are throwing daughter at his head—-and it would be even as well to suggest that you would see him before he went, as a sort of hint that your return would mean an end to the visit. It does not look ‘“‘cared for’’ to leave your daughter to sit up all night if she pleases while you go to bed. Give the young people a reasonable time, and then come back and chaperon.

He thinks maybe suck- ing out the contents with a syringe and not injecting anything may be as curative as the injection treat- ment. X-ray treatment does some good, but just how much has not been settled. He does not think inject- ing tuberculin is of service. In addition to the treatment of the gland directly Dr. Gibson says underlying causes, such as decayed teeth and infected tonsils and ade- noids, must be attended to and the child must live under good hygiene conditions. He must have the rest, open air, regulated exercise and proper feeding treatment which has proven so helpful in consumption. Gland tuberculosis cases do not have to stay in bed for days as dc consumptive cases, but they should have long rest hours and exercise must be closely controlled. POTATOES PUT ON BURNS. W. W. S. writes that freshly scraped Irish potatoes is the best treatment for a burn. He scrapes the potato to a pulp and then cov- ers the burn with the wet pulp. When this has dried he makes an- other application of the same. The moist potato pulp excludes the air, relieves the pain and promotes heal- ing. Once he came home and found his son badly burned and crying: “‘O, papa, kill me! I can not stand it.”’ The boy’s mother got busy scraping potatoes. Soon they ap- plied the pulp. The pain was quick- ly eased and cure without suppura- tion or scar followed. REPLY. say could easily be sure clean, What true. I you am cation than some of the dirty oils sometimes used.

But never leave them on over night. They clog the pores, often enlarge them. Black- heads and disfigurements often fol- low. They must be washed away. Follow these rules day in and day out. Your skin will be soft and lovely. Do not use ordinary soaps in the treatment given above. Do not think any green soap, or represeated as of palm and olive oils, is the same as Palmolive. Remember that before Palmolive came, women were told, “use no sOap on your faces.” Soaps then were judged too harsh. Palmolive is a beauty soap made for one pur- pose only; to safeguard your com- plexion. 60 years of soap study stand behind it. Millions of pretty skins prove its effectiveness beyond all doubt. BE SURE YOU GET THE REAL PALMOLIVE It costs but 10c the cake !—so little \that millions let it do for their bodies what it does for their faces. Obtain Palmolive today. Note what one week of its use will bring. The Palmolive Company (Del.

REIONL TREATIES. THREATEN LEAGUE INSTITUTE 15 TL Hungarian Counselor Charges Alliances Show Lack of Confidence in Body. JAPANESE DELEGATE Release of Atom. Energy Is Cited as Bringing Riches or Ruin. Williamstown, Mass., Aug. 17 (By A. P.).—Regional agreements being made between nations in Eu- rope representing a continuation of the balance of power policy, is tend- ing to undermine the foundation of the League of Nations, J. Pelenyi, counsellor of the royal Hungarian legation, told the Institute of Poli- tics today. Recent fapprochements among the central European countries in- dicate that the new alignments are not necessarily along belligerent lines, he.said, but their establish- ment ‘‘as a second line of defense in case the league goes smash” hardly indicates a bona fide trust in the ef- ficacy of the league. The ‘‘yellow peril’’ menace, which some people believe exists in the Far East, was flouted as impossible by M. Saito, Japanese consul general in New York. ‘‘Japan has come to a stage where she can forget war,’’ he said. ‘‘She has not only lived up to the dis- armament agreements, but is ready at present for further naval dis- armaments, while the militaristic character of the government is daily disappearing in favor of the forces that will allow Japan to turn her at- tention fully to the problem of feed- ing an increasing population on a constant land area exploited to its full capacity.’”’ Chemists, in their search for a means of releasing the energy of atoms and other radio active sub- stances, are leading toward either catastrophic destruction or unlim- ited riches for the world, speakers asserted at the institute. Riches or Ruin. Dr. Umberto Pomilio, Italian chemist, predicted that the secret of wresting energy from atoms would be discovered within the next 25 years, and declared that the cer- tain progress of science toward re- leasing and harnessing radio active substance points toward either de- struction or unlimited riches. Sir Frederick Soddy, English chemist, agreeing that chemists are advancing along “the only road likely to bring success, at a rate which makes it possible that one day we will see its achievement,’’ iikewise warned that the discovery might be used to the detriment rather than the good of mankind. At any moment, he said, some one among the little group of research. ers might find the clew that is be- ing sought. “Should that day arrive,’’ he said, ‘“‘let no one be blind to the magnitude of the stake, or suppose that such an acquisition to the physical resources of humanity can safely be entrusted to those who in the past have converted the bless- ing conferred by science into a curse.”’ Volcanoes, along with the tiny atom, are also potential slaves to be put to work for mankind, Sir Frederick Soddy said. He pointed to the fact that Italy has harnessed her volcanoes and natural steam jets to develop power. Describing the vast energy that abounds in tides, plant life and the rays of the sun, Sir Frederick said the Sa- hara desert receives daily energy from the sun equal to 6,000,000,- 000 tons of coal. Bridegroom Is Held On Bad Check Charges Baltimore, Md., Aug. 17 (By A. P.).—With 15 cents in his pocket, William C. Potter, 20 vears old, who, police say, is a son of Herbert J. Potter, wholesale grocer of Mur- freesboro, Tenn., was held at Cen- ‘tral police station today charged with passing five worthless checks to finance his honeymoon. Locked up with him was his bride of a month, formerly Miss Margaret Bell, who said she was known on the stage as Peggy Miller, and an actress friend, Williene Dibrell. Po- lice said Miss Dibrell had posed as Potter’s sister. The trio was arrested while wait- ing for a Washington motor bus. Potter is charged with cashing two checks in Franklin, Tenn., where the marriage took place, and three at Baltimore hotels. Wife He Believed Dead Makes Bigamy Charge Hagerstown, Md., Aug. 17.— Ralph A. .Wilhide, of Hagerstown, was arrested today. charged with bigamy. Tho warrant was sworn out by wife No. 1, Carrie Viola Burgan Wilhide, who charges he married her here six years ago, and that he then married Sarah K. Bowman last year.

Lights Along Airways Planned for Fliers Approximately 10,000 miles of the existing system of airways in the United States will be lighted and made suitable for night flying under a program announced yester- day by William P. MacCracken, the New aviation secretary of the De- . partment of Ccominerce. Five aviators are to be sent out in different sections of the country to superintend the work. These men will fly over the routes and Gesignate the sites where .24-inch revolving lights will be constructed.

American consular and _ diplo- matic representatives abroad can be as spic and span as they wish at no expense for laundering their uniforms, if the government sup- plies them with their uniforms, Comptroller General McCarl de- clared in a ruling made public yes- terday. The cost of laundering uniforms in such cases, he ruled, is not a personal expenditure, but one prop- erly chargeable to the government. Bolt Kills Woman; Eight Are Stunned Staunton, Va., Aug. 17 (By A. P.).—A woman, 63, was killed and eight other persons were stunned by lightning that struck the front porch of a house near Adile Church, Nelson county, late yesterday. A dog under the porch and a horse 100 feet away also were killed. Mrs. A. L. Furr, of Waynesboro, who was killed, her husband and son-in-law, Boyd Andes, with six other persons had taken refuge on the porch when the storm came up. Mr. Furr and Andes were dazed by the shock, but with the others who were also stunned, quickly re- covered. \ OIL MEN’S COUNSE ASSAIL WALSH ACT Declaring Law Unconstitu- tional, They Ask U. S. Ap- peal Be Dismissed. Charging that:the Walsh act is unconstitutional, a usurpation of the functions of the judiciary by the legislative branch of the gov- ernment in that it seeks—without repealing or amending existing law—to force the court to construe the law in accordance with the judgment of Congress and contrary to the time-honored judgment of the courts, counsel for Edward L. Doheny, Albert J. Fall and Harry F. Sinclair yesterday prayed the District Court of Appeals to deny the motion of special government counsel. to dismiss the special ap- peal allowed by that court last March, and set for argument Octo- ber 4. Counsel for the defendants, hav- ing demurred to the indictments and their demurrers having been overruled by Justice Wendell P. Stafford, in the District Supreme Court, appealed last March to the District Court of Appeals to review the action of the lower court. Granting the appeal, the Court of Appeals set October 4 for argu- ment. Meanwhile, Senator Walsh, of Montana, had Congress pass an act which directs the courts so to con- strue the law as to permit of no appeal from interlocutory orders in criminal cases. This law was made retroactive. Relying on that act, Owen J. Roberts and Atlee Pome- rene, special counsel] for the gov- ernment, Monday moved the dis- missal of the appeal with the asser- tion that under the Walsh act ‘‘it is manifest that the court now lacks jurisdiction of the cause.’’ PATROLMAN OFFERS AN ALIBI FOR MAZER (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) screamed. A moment later, when confronted by Studer, Mazer said. ‘Studer knows I didn’t do it.’’ Then Studer Is Grilled. District Attorney A. E. Bern- steen fairly pounced upon the re- mark. ‘‘Then Studer knows who did do it!’’ he shouted. Bernsteen began grilling Studer, and Mazer was whisked into another room where Joseph R. Roach, Chicago criminal attorney; Detectives Ora Slatter and George V. Armstrong, Cincinnati, and Acting Chief. of Police Earl W. Hexamer, Canton, proceeded to grill him. Outside the room, three Stark county deputy sheriffs awaited the word to transport Mazer to the Stark county jail. Bernsteen an- nounced he would hold Mazer un- til tomorrow for further question- ing. Mazer and Studer thereupon were taken to the Cuyahoga county jail for the night. Bernsteen said he would resume the questioning in the morning. Roach, Slatter, Hexamer and Armstrong returned to Canton. Back in Canton a grand jury of eight women and seven men, al- ready convened, was held in readi- ness to consider the evidence against Mazer and others he may implicate. . Another Gives Self Up. Meanwhile Andrew Pretzky, Ak- ron, gave himself up to United States Marshal George A. Stauf- fer, when he learned he was wanted on a jJiquor. conspiracy charge. Pretzky is alleged .to have had a part in conveying liquor from Cleve- land to Canton and is reported to have overheard a drunken man say: oe is going to get bumped Oo Pcie i Shortly after the grilling was re- sumed late today, investigators an- nounced to newspaper men that statements signed by all of them and issued at certain intervals thereafter would be the only source of information. | ' For the time, at least, Mazer is the ‘‘key’’ which is expected to un- lock the | mystery of Mellett’s slaying, If he “squeals,”’ according to the unani- he will implicate several coconspira- tors, including one, or perhaps two Canton policemen, and _ several underworld characters, ated a more-than-a-month-old | mous opinion of the investigators, THE WASHINGTON WHEELER SAYS TINKHAM TRIES TO HIDE CORRUP Declares Charges as Ground- less as the Wet Cause Is Hopeless. HOLDS LAW IS FULFILLED (By Associated Press.) The demand of Representative Tinkham (Republican), Massa- chusetts, for prosecution of the Antisaloon league under the cor- rupt practces act brought from Wayne B. Wheeler yesterday the comment that Mr. Tinkham “has vainly tried for four years to get someone to take his alcoholic charges against the Antisaloon league seriously.’’ ‘*These charges,”’ said the league’s general counsel in a formal statement, “are as groundless~-as the wet cause is hopeless. “Mr. Tinkham yells ‘stop thief’ to hide the corrupt, lawless activi- ties of the wets who back him,” the statement continued. “The Anti- saloon league has told the truth about its income and disburse- menty. If the wets were as frank, their budget would make the money spent by the league look like 30 cents. Only a small part of the league’s income is spent for political pur- poses, and the law does not require that money spent for other purposes be reported. We have been com- plying with the Federal election laws longer than any other organi- zation. “The national league alone filed its reports until 1925, when the law was changed, requiring State or- ganizations to do likewise. The State leagues will comply with the law. Both by law and by Supreme Court decision it is not necessary to report primary expenses under the Federal statute. This can not be required by law without amend- ing the Constitution. “In the meantime Tinkham will continue to tinkle to detract public attention from his lawless support- ers, who are shooting holes in the Constitution in order to get a drink of poison liquor.”’ I KILLED, 3 BADLY INJURED IN TRAFFIC (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) street. When knocked down he became entangled under the wheel guard of the car, and firemen of the rescue squad were called to extri- cate him. He was taken to the hos- pital unconscious. Policeman William McEwen, of the Tenth precinct, was slightly in- jured, the victim of a “hit-and-run” driver. He was driving a motor- cycle in Thirteenth street near W street northwest when knocked to the street by an automobile, which fled the scene. He was treated at George Washington university hos- pital. Alvin Smith, 32 years old, 1208 Sixth street southwest, was slightly injured when the car he was driv- ing hit a parked automobile in front of 635 Virginia avenue south- east. He was arrested for reckless driving and fined $25 in traffic court. John Mills, 1391 Newton street northwest, was slightly injured when the automobile -in which he was riding collided with a truck driven by E. M. Stewart, colored, 28 years old, 1241 Carrollburg place southwest, at New Jersey avenue and N street northwest. Mills was treated at Casualty hospital for slight cuts and bruises on the face and body. Struck by an automobile while crossing Fourteenth street near C street northeast, Ramon F. Sahey, 5 years old, 71 L street northeast, was slightly injured. He was treat- ed at Casualty hospital. Stephen Aubinoe,. 43 years old, 1340 H street northeast, suffered severe lacerations of the head when thrown from the automobile in which he was riding following a collision with an automobile driven by Norman F. Haag, 1207 Sixteenth street northeast, at Fourth and K streets, police reported. He was treated at Casualty hospital and was later removed to his home. His condition is undetermined. Boyles’ Indictment In Alabama Fails Birmingham, Ala., Aug. 17 (By A. P.).—Federal District Judge W. I. Grubb sustained the plea in abate: ment presented yesterday in behalf of Aubrey Boyles, former district attorney at Mobile, today. This au- tomatically annulled the indictment against Boyles returned by a Fed- eral grand jury at Mobile, in which it was charged that Boyles was in unlawful possession and had un- lawfully transported four bottles of liquor.

TRACTION SHARES ACTIVE By F. W. PATTERSON. The Prince Georges Bank of Hy- attsville, Md., is making prepara- tions for a general celebration Sat- urday on the occasion of the re- moval of the institution from its present quarters to its new home, just completed. The new bank building is located on the corner of Marion street and the Baltimore-Washington boule- vard with a 30-foot frontage on the highway and a depth of 66 feet run- ning back on Marion street. The building is a classic structure of Bedford stone, the portico being supported by two Ionic columns, between which are bronze entrance doors leading into a marble vesti- bule. The main banking room is of a colonial type, with a gallery in the rear and a modern vault in the center. The decorative scheme is ivory white, with fixtures of green and white marble. Robert L. Har- ris, of Baltimore, was the architect, and the building contract was car- ried out by C. Wohlegemuth, jr., Washington contractor. The bank has a capital of $60,- 000, a surplus of $100,000 and gross assets of $1,700,000. and its continued growth under the direc- tion of J. Enos Ray, president, made necessary the erection of the com- modious building which will be oc- cupied Saturday. Three years ago a modern bank building was erected at Mount Rainier for the accommo- dation of a branch of the Prince Georges Bank at that point. Other officers of the institution are T. Howard Duckett, Neuman G. Dud- row and Perry Boswell, vice presi- dents, and T. M. Jones, cashier. Capital Traction Sells Heavily. Capital Traction shares held the limelight in yesterday’s’ rather more active session on the Wash- ington Stock Exchange, and while the buying appeared to have come from general sources, it is probable there was concerted demand. With opening sale of 20 shares made at 104, the previous level, another lot of 40 shares was turned over at that quotation, but a fractional drop to 103% occurred on next sale, involving 30 shares, and an eighth was parted with on final sales of 12 shares, the stock closing at 103%. It was marked up as the session ended, 103% pid, asked 104. Washington Railway & Electric preferred was in favor, and 40 shares, in four transactions, changed hands at 91, while Poto- mac Electric Power preferred was easier at 108, with but 5 shares coming out. Peoples Drug Stores preferred sold at 104, a drop of 1 point, and Merchants Transfer & Storage preferred was firm at 101. National Mortgage & Investment preferred became easier under sell- ing pressure, 120 shares moving at 8%, and 70 shares at 8. Interest in the bond market was limited to the utilities. Potomac Electric Power consolidated 5s gained to 101, while the general 7s returned to 106. Capital Trac- tion 5s were easier at 101. Wash- ington Gas Light 5s gained to 1005, and the 6s, in the smaller denomination, sold at 102%. Inquire About German Bonds. Judging from the number of in- quiries received by the Riggs Na- tional Bank, residents of Washing- ton and its environs are big holders of German state, city and munic- ipal- association loan bonds, which are about to be revalued and ex- changed into ‘“‘loan-liquidation’”’ debts by the German government.

Heavier Freight Movement. | Reports just received from the railroads of the country and made public yesterday .by the bureau of railway economics show that the daily average movement of freight cars on steam railroads in June was the highest for any June on record, amounting to 30.1 miles.a day. This was an increase of 1.7 miles over the best previous June, which was in 1917, and was an increase of 2.6 miles over June last year and 5 miles above June, 1924. Francis M. Savage Returns. Francis M. Savage, president of the Central Savings Bank, has re- turned to the city after an absence of several weeks, during which he motored through the New England States. A syndicate composed of Pyn-| chon & Co., West & Co., W. S. Hammons & Co. and John Nicker- son & Co. has purchased and will offer later in the week a new issue of 15,000 shares of $7 dividend preferred stock of Derby Gas’ & Electric Corporation. Derby Gas & Electric Corpora- tion owns more than 99.9 per cent of the capital stock of the Derby Gas & Electric Co., and the entire capital stock of the Wallingford Gas Light Co. The purpose of the issue is to provide in part for ac- quisition of the capital stock of the two companies, the retirement of underlying securities and for other corporate purposes. Politics Holds Stage. “With approach of fall elections, politics doubtless will become the center of interest again in the near future,” according to Hart- shone, Fales & Co., who say that the various conventions will ye the | the leaders to bring forth all vote catching issues and have them threshed out and threshed about in the old game of trying to snare the supposedly elusive vote. The reviewer points out that so far as business is concerned there does not seem to be any outstanding problem except in the minds of the politicians. The aver. age voter probably gets more of a thrill out of the prohibition ques- tion than any other. “All this sounds good for the stock market. European affairs have ceased to cause any concern here, though the British coal trouble and the French financial situation merit watching.”’ Subscription Lists Closed. Subscription lists of the $5,500,- 000 Havana Electric Railway Co. 25-year 5% per cent gold deben- tures with 25-year’ subscription warrants for common stock have been closed, as the issue has been heavily over-subscribed, announced Frank P.

Pie sitton titties Today; McCullough Wins Half Mile. LAZA playground was leading Pp the point scorers with 14% in the third annual interplay- ground field and track meet ves- terday when rain called a halt. The events will be resumed this morn- ing at 10:30 o’clock, when the boys who have not competed will get their chance. ; Plaza’s lead means little, as twelve other grounds have figured in the scoring and not quite half the meet is completed. Those who have scofed so far are: Cook, 10; Columbia Road, 9%; Henry, 8; Georgetown, 7; Garfield, 6; John- son, 5; Burroughs, 4;. Rosedale, 3; Hayes, 3; Bloomingdale, 1, and Brookland, 1. The soggy condition of the track and jumping pits no doubt kept several of the youngsters from breaking records, but one lad, Tip- ton, running for the Henry play- ground in the 70-pound class, 50- yard dash, overcame these handi- caps and lowered the time in that event from 7 seconds to 6 4-5. HE ‘e-mile race, a new event on the playground program, brought out four- teen contestants and in many ways it was the feature of the day. Ben McCullough, of Gar- field, dark-horsed his way to a victory in the event over Char- lie White, the favorite, after one of the hardest fights ever witnessed in playground compe- tition, McCullough finished about three inches in front of White, and his success was due principally to cour- age. The time was 2 minutes and 16 seconds. Although the day was marred by rain, those in authority in the play- gr ound office were highly elated over the number of youthful athletes who competed. Expecting about 1,200 youngsters to participate, the offi- cials were pleasantly surprised when 1,350 future greats in the athletic world pounced upon them. After the final event today, the boys who have won first, second and _ third places will be awarded medals do- nated by The Washington Post, and the winning team will be presented with The Post cup by Mrs. Susie Root Rhodes, supervisor of play- grounds. 85-POUND CLABS.

The main event on the card is calculated to furnish local fans with a real fistic treat, perhaps the best yet offered in the nearby arena. This contest will bring together Babe Ruth, the sensa- tional young junior lightweight of Philadelphia, and Frankie Fink, a newcomer in Eastern boxing circles, who has made a hit in New York with his fine boxing and punching ability. A strong supporting cast has been provided for the main bout, the four preliminaries calling for 28 rounds of boxing. Tex Sto- vall is to meet2Bud Nolan in one, Jack Turner opposes Willie Cur- ry in another, and in the third eight-rounder Phil Raymond will meet an opponent yet to be chosen. 3 - = The Sportswoman __By DOROTHY E.

ILLIAMSBURG, Va., Aug. 17 \W (By A. P.).—The first call of the gridiron at William and Mary college will be sounded September 1 by Coach Tasker. More than 60 candidates for the 1926 eleven are expected to report for the initial workouts on Cary field. No small task will face the coaches in lining up new material to step in three of the backfield po- sitions and as many or more line vacancies where the veterans of last year have left big gaps. Capt. Art Matsu, William and Mary's” Japa- nese star, will be back at quarter- back, but Cain, Irwin, and Charles will not be behind him again this year. Capt. Elliott graduated in June and will leave vacarit a_ tackle position, while Parsons and House will be lost to the line. Probably the most serious blow the team re- ceived was in the loss‘of ‘‘Meb’’ Da- vis, one’ of the best wingmen in the south Atlantic territory.

Gilpin’s Kentmere Farm and the Short Grass Stud were knocked down at public auction in the Fasig-Tipton paddock here tonight. Climatic conditions were in sharp contrast to the pre- ceding evening, and the clear skies and rising temperature were re- flected in the attendance, which had returned to normal. The prices, too, were close to normal, for the 39 youngsters brought a total of $104,- 150, an average of $2,670 a head. The Sagamore Stable contributed considerable to the evening’s total, when it took two Golden Guinea youngsters for $9,000 each. Botn of them were chestnut colts, one out of Planutess and the other out of Queen of the Water. bred almost identically alike, since Queen of the Water is an own daughter of Planutess. John Whalen also stepped into|4J. the $9,000 class when he gave that amount for a bay colt by Wrack out of Ringling after being carried to that figure by the efforts of Jack Richardson to buy the colt. The closing minutes of the sale were .eniivened as:S. C. Hildreth jumped into the arena for the first time to bid on a son of Fair Play— Yellow Sally. He stopped at $7,000, however, and J.

P.).—Jack Dempsey would like to have Gene Tunney visit him at the White Sulphur Springs training camp, near here, “‘to see a sample of what will happen next month in New York.’’ The champion extended the invitation today to Bud Gorman, Tunney’s chief sparring partner, who motored over from Lake Pleas- ant to see Dempsey go through his paces. The party from Tunney’s strong- hold explained their presence by the fact that it was a light day on Tun- ney’s program, the next sparring matches having been scheduled for tomorrow after four heavy days of ring work over the week-end. The refusal of the State boxing commission’s license committee to grant. permission for the champion- GS late. 17 SPRINGS, N. Y., made no change in the champion’s training program today, nor will it in the future, his followers said. EMPSEY took on Jimmy Brown, negro middle- weight, for the first bout of the day. A short tussle suf- ficed, and Phil Weisberger, heavyweight, entered the ring only to be knocked down after a short clash. Jimmy Roberts, weight, and Johnny weight, the light - heavy- omg welter- were next on(the card. In champion’s opinion the real test of the day came in the closing bout with Roberto Delfino, tine heavyweight. There was a slight fltirry in the Dempsey camp today when a proc- ess server appeared to serve notice on the champion of a suit brought by Ray J. Cannon, a Milwaukee at- torney, to recover $29,450 alleged to ‘be owed for legal services. Cannon transacted business for Dempsey and Jack Kearns, his for- mer manager, at one time, but Dempsey declared today that the money already has been paid. The sum sought represented not only payment for servi@es, but also ex- ‘pense money and interest since 1/1918. Argen- JACK INVITES|(— ship fight in this State next month.

GRIDMEN HONORED IN GUIDE Long Runs by O'Neill, Plansky, Hagerty Are Cited. HILE the 1925 football sea- W son was replete with the usual number of thrilling and exceptional plays, of which the Outstanding ones are recorded in the new football guide, yet there is a pleasant addition to the record of principal scoring plays, for in that category six runs,of three of Georgetown’s players are listed. To ‘‘Bucky” O’Neill, one of last year’s pony backfield, goes the top honors, for in the same game he ran 75 yards and 65 yards for touchdowns. Both of these long gallops were registered against King college, which was a 37 to 6 victim of the Blue and Gray ma- chine, Tony Plansky also made a dis- tinguished run in the King college game, traveling just seven-tenths of the fleld+—70 yards—for a six- pointer. This was Tony’s longest excursion for a touchdown, al- though he made many others. He led the team in scoring. However, most of Tony’s journeys over the last white marker came after short line bucks, ranging in distance from 1 yard up to 15. two mates, Capt. Jack Hagerty really made the most noteworthy runs for touch- downs for Georgetown last year. In the all-important game of the season with Fordham, Jack twice broke through his oppo- nents from scrimmage to travel through an open field 40 yards before depositing the oval be- hind the crossbars. roe! 1 eclipsed by his Plansky also starred in this game, and both he and Hagerty received many selections on mythical All- American teams for the games they played that day. In the Lehigh game Hagerty made another 40 yards for a touchdown, dodging through their entire team, returning a punt. In addition to his great speed, Hagerty was one of the shiftiest runners of the season in collegiate ranks, and, should he take a turn at professional football this fall, make a mighty good halfback for any team. a panies — | LF wt AN OPEN LEAD TO UNLESS you have crammed a load of Prince Albert into that favorite pipe of yours, you simply haven’t given your pipe a chance to do its stuff.

There appears to be considerable discussion these days among the fans about First-baseman Joe Judge's future with the Nats. Ac- cording to Pilot Harris, Joe’s status is the same now as it has been for Hi the past few years. “Our ‘ivory hunter’ has not been instructed to dig up any first-baseman,”’ Stan stated, “but if, while he is looking at some other players, he happens to run across a promising piece of doorway talent, he undoubtedly would buy- him, for we're always looking for good players, no matter what position they play or how we're fixed in that particular berth. ‘“‘The main reason why Judge is not in there day in and day out this season, as has been the case in the past, is that in other years we have not had a man of Moon Harris’ caliber hanging around. He is a right-handed hitter, a good fielder, and gives me a chance to withdraw a southpaw against left-handed pitchers. Then again, there are certain pitchers that he always has been able to hit and, whenever 1T make the shift, I figure it gives us quite an advantage. Scout Joe Engel left town yester- day afternoon headed for Louisville where he is understood to be on the trail of a promising catcher. Just what player he is after is not known. ” e ” Manager Harris probably will get back in harness again this after- noon. His leg injury has just about healed up and it would not be at all surprising if he did not take up his second-base duties in one of today’s games. Terminals to Resume Titular Play Today Pullman and Black and White will try to outwit the weather man and get their play-off for the Washington Terminal Railroad Y. M. C. A. champion under way again today. The series now stands l-all. The game starts at 4:45 o’clock on the léague field near the Union sta- tion.

Later he met with Carey, alone, and prior to issuing his statement tonight he conferred again with Dreyfuas and Clarke. Heydler said he felt that the three players, by reason of their long and honorable baseball career, “were entitled to a full hearing of any grievance they may have in their passing or threatened passing from the Pittsburgh club.” They have been eharged with stirring up dissension among Pirate players, he said, and with being ring leaders in an attempt to drive Clarke from the bench.

BELL PROPOSES a ; , -_-——_— Policewomen Appeal wee ee Oe ee — i y ae ee a eee ee ee ae ee ee ee ae 5 * a 7 the man’s name.’ CITY ASSESSOR TAKE REALTY BUYING TASK His Plan to Await the Return of Commissioner Rudolph Before Being Pushed. SAYS RICHARDS’ STAFF IS FITTED FOR DUTY Points to Loss of Assistant and Difficulty to Be Met by New Man. Lieut. Col. J. Franklin Bell, en- gineer commissioner, yesterday thought up a neat way to try to escape the embarrassment of not being able‘to buy school sites under the restriction imposed on _ their purchase by Congress. He proposed that land-buying for District pur- poses be transferred from his de- partment to that of the District as- sessor, who operates under the ad- Ministrative supervision of Com- missioner Cuno H. Rudolph. Mr. Rudolph is absent from the city. District officials generally have expressed the opinion that waat Congress sought, in forbidding pay- ment of more than 25 per cent in excess of assessed valuation for land, was not so much to hold down the sums paid for land as to in- crease the valuation of all District property for purposes of assess- ment. One of the effects of this would be to increase the tax bills of tax- payers without increasing the tax rate. Opinion has been expressed that another effect would be a tendency to perpetuate the $9,000,- 000 lump sum contribution to Dis- trict expenses out of the Federal Treasury, instead of restoring a per- centage ratio division of the cost of local government. Praises Assessor's Office. Col. Bell did not say that his new plan was intended to jog the asses- sor in the matter of increasing val- uations. Neither did he state that he sought relief from a difficult job. Instead he complimented the assessor’s office. He said: “TIT am losing my assistant, Maj. W. H. Holcombe. He attended to the details of buying sites. It would not be reasonable to expect his successor, a new man in the District, unfamiliar with property values and neighborhoods, to be able to take up this work. On the other hand, Assessor William P. Richards has an efficient staff, ad- mirably suited for just this duty. His office is the logical place for such work to be done.”’ Maj. Holcombe has a reputation as. a go-getter and as a good bar- gainer. He has been unable to buy a single site since Congress tied up land purchasing with the 25 per cent clause, except one, for a police station, in which case the owner of the land was both well-to-do and public-spirited. Will Ask Lifting of Ban. Col. Bell would not try to shift such an awkward responsibility from the shoulders of one of his departments to one of a fellow com- missioner’s in the latter’s absence from the city. So he is holding up consideration of his proposal by the board until Commissioner Ru- dolph’s return, expected next week. There is also a plan for the com- missioners to join in asking Con- gress, at the winter session, to lift the restriction on the appropria- tions for buying sites, so that the development of the five-year schoo] building program may be resumed. Youth Gets 30 Days On Bad Check Charge Charles Myers, of York. Pa.. was sentenced to 30 days in jail yester- day on a charge of passing a worth- less check by Judge: Macdonald in police court. Myers is being held for the grand jury on a previous charge. A bank book containing entries amounting to a large sum which Myers is alleged to have used In passing the check was exhibited in court. Headquarters Detective Patrick O’Brien, who made the arrest, said the youth obtained the bank book by depositing $2 in a bank at York. The check for which he was sen- tenced was for $28 and was given | in payment for three shirts at Jo- seph Goldberg’s store, 1010 Four- teenth street northwest. The youth sobbingly told the judge that he had done it all for another man, bit would not give the reason or He said he was one of a family of twelve children. Hearing Tomorrow On Street Widening Trade and citizens bodies will have an opportunity to present their claims for the widening of certain streets in the District at a public hearing before the board of District commissioners tomorrow morning at 10 o’clock in the Dis- trict building. * Blueprints of the city streets that need widening, together with cost estimates of the work, were sent out to many of the business and civic organizations by the District authorities several weeks. ago. There will be sufficient funds in the 1927 budget for the widening of only three or four streets and the hearing will be ‘for the purpose of ascertaining from the citizens what streets need widening the most. yY Attorney’ Robert E. Lynch filed American Security & Trust Co., who by the testator when he turned them The will does notin any way change any arrangement or understanding of the estate is devised to the widow, with the District commissioners yesterday a nctice of appeal from the’ decision of the police trial board in the case wherein Mrs. Gladys Black and Mrs. Pearl Par. ker, policewomen, were charged with arresting an innocent woman and mistreating her. The trial board ‘ined the policewomen $25 each. The commissioners gave the law- yer until September 7 to submit a brief supporting his appeal. In the meantime they will be supplied with transcripts of the testimony in the hearing before the trial board. A. 7.

MAY GET PORTRAIT The will of Robert Todd Lincoln, until his death only survivor and son of President Abraham Lincoln, dated October 17, 1919, was filed yesterday in the probate branch of the District of Columbia Supreme court by Norman Frost, attorney, on behalf of Mrs. Mary Lincoln, widow of the testator, and the are named executors. The will is a brief document and bequeathes the entire estate, the value of which is not stated, to Mrs. Lincoln, ex- cept, of course, the six trunks of documents in the custody of the Library of Congress. These documents are given to the United States government by the second paragraph of the will, and according to the arrangement made over to the library, they are notto be made public until 21 years after the death of Robert Todd Lincoln. entered into between Mr. and the library authorities. It is understood that many afrti- cles connected with or belonging to President Lincoln were in the home of his son at Thirteenth and N streets northwest. The magnificent portrait of Abraham Lincoln which hangs in this home may eventually find its way to the White House, ac- cording to a recent expression of the testator. Just what Mrs. Lin- coln will do with Lincolniana, in the Library of Congress, remains to be determined. Robert L. McGuire, who died Au- gust 6, leaves his son, Robert B. Mc- Guire, $500 and a private library, according to the will filed yesterday in probate court. The remainder Lincoln Mrs. Julia W. 5 NAVY FLIERS NAMED FOR SCHNEIDER RACE Lieut. Comdr.

Through Attorneys Doyle & Flynn, the plaintiff says that on February 1, 1925, he was filling the radiator of his car at a water- ing trough at Third and H streéts northwest, when a truck belonging to» the ice company struck the car from the rear, pushing it onto him.

Smith, of the Argonne apartments, in traf- fic court yesterday before Judge McMahon. The judge agreed that she had a good excuse and took her personal bond. Policeman Raymond V. Sinclair, of the ‘First precinct, left a sum- mons in Miss Smith’s automobile while, she says, she was marooned in a doorway without an umbrella. When she finally reached her ma- chine, she said, the engine stalled, keeping her on the corner even longer. U. 3, BUILDING PROGRAM NERE {3 BEING DELAYED Removal of Center Market and Acquisition of Land Hold Up Start. SLOWLY CLEARING SITES There is little likelihood of get- ting a start this year on the Dis- trict’s $50,000,000 government building program, it was learned yesterday. It has been planned to award foundation contracts for the arch- ives and new internal revenue building this autumn but the work of clearing the property is moving slowly. In the first place, the question of what is to become of Center market is still to be settled and the gov- ernment has yet to acquire con- siderable property before the two buildings can be erected. It owns about three lots on the proposed site of the archives build- ing but owns none of the proposed site for the new revenue building. Both are in the vicinity of the market. Little trouble is expected in ac- quiring the outstanding property, and the government is not expected even to have to resort to condemna- tion proceedings, but the business houses now on the sites are showing a reluctance to make the first move: They intend to move, but no firm has yet shown a disposition to take the lead. Predictions that the building work will bring as high as 5,000 men to Washington are discounted by Treasury Department officials. The increase in population, they be- lieve, will be unappreciable. They place the number of work- ers engaged closer to 2,000 and point out that they will be tran- sitory. As one class of workers fin- ish another will come in and take up their work, it is explained, and at no one time will the total num- ber of workers engaged on the buildings be on the job together. FALLING BRICK WALL INJURES 3 WORKMEN Rain Loosens Downtown Con- struction and Cave-In of Several Tons Results. A brick retaining wall 20 feet long and several tons of earth in the foundation of a building under construction at Fifteenth and G streets northwest yesterday caved in and three colored laborers were seriously injured. They are: Moses Lee, 216 Seaton court northwest, broken left leg and mangled foot; Rodney Jordan, 44 years old, Columbia road north- west, broken right leg and body in- juries, and Reginald Galloway, 21 years old, 2248 Cleveland place northwest, sprained leg and body bruises. The men were extracted by fel- low workmen and taken to Emer- gency hospital in a police patrol. Police assume that the earth was loosened by the heavy rains. La Vigne Will Invite Grange to Meet Here An invitation to the National grange to hold its 1927 convention in Washington will be tendered to that body by C. E. La Vigne, di- rector of the Washington conven- tion bureau, at the leadership con- ference of the Pennsylvania State grange to be held in Centre Hall, Pa., August 17 to 20. The director will outline facilities of the National Capital for accommodating such a gathering in his address on leader- ship to be delivered at the con- ference tomorrow. R. W. Dunilay, Assistant Secre- tary Of Agriculture, and A. M. Loomis, president of Potomac grange, No. 1, of this city, will also address the conference tomorrow. The Centre County Pomona grange and the Pennsylvania State college will participate in the conference. “Teller of Fortunes” Given 180-Day Term Despite his plea that he was ‘“‘tell- ing fortunes,’’ Geodrge McDonald Shaw, colored, was sentenced to 180 days in jail yesterday by Judge George H.

DEPICTS CAPITAL EVENTS ] “e's aco: MOIGE PHONE HITE GUT 19 CONSIDERED BY UTILITIES BOARD Hearing Called for September 15 at Which Action Will Be Discussed. 25 CENTS FIGURE GIVEN AS LIKELY REDUCTION Company Making More Than “Fair Return,” Commis- sion’s Auditors Find. ee Telephone rates, which were theoretically reduced a year ago, may be revised similarly this fall. A public hearing to consider such action was ordered yesterday by the public utilities commission, to take place September 15 at 10 a. m. The Chesapeake & Potomac Tele- phone Co. not only made too much money during the last twelve months, according to accountants of the commission, but it would still have made too much if it had low- ered its rates in to the commission’s intended to have become effective June 10, 1925. aids, what the company’s net earn- obedience order aides, what the company’s net earn- ings would if the rates had been reduced, represents more than $100,000 in excess of a “fair return’ on the valuation placed on the telephone property by the com- mission; indicating, it is said, that a further reduction of 25 cents a month on_ residence’ telephones would scale down the profit to the 7 per cent on investment the com- mission recognizes as just. have been Company Valuation Increased. In September, 1924, the Federa- tion of Citizens associations peti- tioned the commission to reduce local telephone rates. The company countered by demanding an increas- ed valuation of its property. Hear- ings resulted in a compromise whereby the valuation was increas- ed, but not enough to please the company, and the rates were order- ed reduced, but not enough to please the federation. An order was issued directing the company to reduce its unlimited residence telephone tariff from $5 a month to $4.75, effective June 10, 1925, and to increase the number of calls permitted on two-party lines for $2.50 a month, from 35 to 40. The telephone concern appealed to the courts to have the commis- sion’s valuation increased, and pend- ing the appeal, posted a bond to s&e- cure reimbursement of telephone subscribers if the court should sus- tain the commission and‘say that it should have oveyed the order and reduced the rates. northwest, Call Isssued by Commission. The present call for a hearing was issued by the commission on its own initiative, without an ap- peal from citizens’ organizations. [t is said that the reduction, if any, to be ordered followng the hearing in September, may be another 25 cents, to provide a monthly charge of $4.50 for unlimited residence telephones, and 45 calls for $2.50 a month on the two-party lines. This order, if issued, is expected to result in another lawsuit with the telephone bills still unlowered, but with the bond increased to gse- cure refunds to subscribers if the company eventually loses in court. The commission yesterday granted the petition of the Capital Traction Co. for permission to cease opera- tion of the Rock Creek Park’ golf course motorbus line. The secre- tary noted on the records of the commission the offer of the com- pany to give a bus to the golf con- cessionaire or to the director of public buildings and public parks if either wanted to pay the deficits of operation. Gun- Toter Is Given 240-Day Jail Term Elmer F. Neal, colored, 2602 Bowen street southeast, sen- tenced to 240 days in jail yesterday on a charge of carrying concealed — weapons by Judge George H. Mac- donald in police court. Neal is al- leged have hailed a taxicab at Ninth street and New York avenue northwest Monday night and told the driver, Kurtz Brandenburg, that he had just shot a man and wanted to make a quick getaway. Brandenburg drove toward the Second precinct police station and met Policeman Otto Hallett at Sev- enth and M streets. He hailed the policeman, who took the negro to the station house. Search of his per- son revealing no weapons, the po- lice searched the taxi and found, they testified, a revolver. Neal was Was to arrested and taken to court. Watch Stolen From Desk. A few minutes before the wrist watch of Miss Gladys Herberson was stolen from her desk in the of- fice of a motion picture exchange in the Mather building, 916 G street yesterday, a_ salesman . was trying to sell her some photo- graphs, police were told. She valued the watch at $75. Police are seek- ing the salesman.
