STARS DENY BETTING ON CONTEST IN 1919 Managers Resigned to Avoid Exposure, Is Belief of Baseball Officials. ee Chicago, Dec. 21 (By the Associated Press).—Two of the greatest baseball players in the history of the game— Ty Cobb and Tris Speaker—today were named by Commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis in an expose of a scandal that went back to 1919, the year climaxed by the famous crooked world series between the White Sox and Cincinnati Reds. Cobb, famed as the and Speaker, the famous “Spoke” of the Indians, had their names linked with “Dutch” Leonard and “Smoky Joe” Wood, both former American league pitching stars, in a conspiracy to bet on an alleged “fixed’’ game be- tween Detroit and Cleveland, played at Detroit on September 25, 1919. Cobb, until after the close of 1926 season, was manager of the De- troit club, and a star player on it for twenty years, while Speaker held the same managerial position with Cleve- land. Both resigned, suddenly, after the finish of the 1926 pennant race. The scandal, breaking today, was the “Georgia Peach,” the since the barring forever of the eight | White Sox players for conspiracy to} throw the 1919 world series. $600 Involved in Bet. The sum of money involved in the latest scandal was $600, bet by Leonard, a one-time Tiger pitcher, and Wood, against $420, on the Tigers to win. Detroit won the game. Nothing in the 100 pages of testimony or let- ters made public by Commissioner Landis reveal that either Cobb or Speaker wagered on the game, but it indicates they had knowledge of the betting. The scandal came to light when Leonard, pressing a claim against the Detroit club, turned over two letters, one from Cobb, the other from Wood. These letters were presented to 4&4 secret meeting of the board of direc- tors of the American league, held here last September. Ban Johnson, the American league president, immediate- ly presented them to Commissioner Landis for investigation. Leonard, Detroit pitcher, asserted that he, Cobb, Speaker and Wood, pitcher for Cleveland, met “under the grandstand,” of Navin field, Detroit, on September 24, 1919, and agreed that Detroit should win its game with Cleveland on the following day, thus clinching third place for Detroit in the American league pennant race. Plan Did Not Go The four planned, Leonard asserted, to benefit by betting on the outcome of the contest, with Cobb putting up $2,000, Leonard $1,500 and Wood and Speaker $1,000 each. The former De- troit pitcher said that the plan did not go through, because Cobb and Speaker did not put up their share of the money, but he said that he and Through. defeated Cleveland 9 to 5. The story of Leonard, denied un- qualifiedly by Cobb, brought in wake the tacit admission of baseball prompted Speaker’s unexpected retire- agership of the Detroit team. Cobb denied this today, that his hope of winning a pennant.

First Lady Spreads Cheer Among Invalid Children Mrs. Coolidge Takes Yule Spirit to Hospital With Familiarity for Older Patients and Baby Talk for Younger Ones. The Christmas spirit stole into Children’s hospital, Thirteenth and V streets northwest, yesterday in the person of the first lady of the land, who in her annual Christmas visit be- stowed upon the ill and invalid chil- dren a soft word of cheer, a pat on the head and left with each, by way of a souvenir, a red and pink carna- tion. Mrs. Coolidge arrived at the hospital in the White House car at 3 o’clock and was received by officers and com- mittee heads of the board of women visitors. She passed on to the wards through a double file of the student nurses of the hospital, who appeared in their blue and white uniforms for the occasion, She visited every one of the six wards, distributing flowers among 102 children. She talked familiarly with the larger ones and talked baby talk with the small. Many of the children were gleefully surprised and many of the tots, who, of course, were too young to know who she was and were evem $00); FOUNS -0-qumeeatone: HARD AAENG" tions were, showed a buoyant response to her infectious cheerfulness. In one of the colored wards a 3-year- old girl to whom she handed flowers, replied: “Miss, I sure would like to have a piece of candy in my mouth.” Mrs. Coolidge told her she regretted she did not bring candy. However, it was learned the child is in the hospital because she swallowed a quantity of lye and that she can not swallow now, but must be fed through a tube. When she arrived on tke third floor she was greeted by Francis Matson, who has been in the hospital three years. Two or three children who remembered her visit last year greeted her gladly. Robert and Rachel, 15-month-old twins recently brought to the hospital, re- ceived special attention. She tarried by them several minutes. All the children were prepared to re- ceive her, each of them just having had a bath and clean dresses.

RADCLIFFE GIRLS PEN GREETINGS WITH TOES Freshmen -Forced to Take Unusual Exercise to Develop Arches. Cambridge, Mass., Dec. 21 (By A. P.). Two hundred girl freshmen at Rad- cliffe college struggled today to pen dainty Christmas greetings with dainty toes. It was generally conceded, how- ever, that the finished cards failed to approach in daintiness the feet that inscribed them. The greetings were not voluntary—at least in form. In fact, the gymnasium office ordered it. All freshmen are required to take “gym” and all freshmeh were required to hand in Christmas greetings written with thetr toes. So there was nothing to do but to toe the mark. } It was exple'-°d the request was not to give the students an opportunity to prove their versality. The real reason for the request was that this form of toe exercise is the most effective for developing and correcting the arch. Called Happy Couple. According to an Associated Press dis- patch from Canton, Ohio, John Wal- ter, father of Mrs. Houck, declared on his return there yesterday that he had formed no opinion as to whether his daughter was murdered, committed sui- cide or is in hiding. Dr. and Mrs. Houck, according to the statement issued yesterday by their rel- atives and friends, were a “mutually devoted and happy couple, intent on and successful in bringing up their child well, and both intensely inter- ested in the doctor’s work.” “A few years ago Dr. Houck had @ nervous breakdown,” it said, “and Mrs. Houck, during the week preceding her disappearance, had become apprehen- sive of another attack. Dr. Houck had been excessively active and had been studying intensively. He had been un- usually irritable and had become quite argumentative with his wife. There absolutely is no foundation for reports of physical abuse or destructiveness, their difficulties having been mostly verbal.” | Say Houck Slapped Wife. Dr. Houck told detectives he slapped Mrs. Houck, they say. The statement said Dr. Houck and Mrs. Houck had visited a nerve spe- cialist and that he had advised them to separate temporarily. Preparations then were made for Dr. Houck to visit some relatives in Pennsylvania. About 9:45 o'clock Tuesday night, the state- ment said, Dr. Houck and Mrs. Houck had a quarrel over an insignificant oc- currence earlier in the evening. When they retired, it was stated, they were on the best of terms. The statement continued: | “Dr. Houck, feeling restless, took a — sedative and slept soundly until about 7 o'clock Wednesday morning, when he saw his wife fully clothed, take the child to the bathroom.

Responsibility for prevalent conditions now in the public school system in the District was laid to officials of | | the bureau of the budget by the Wash- | ington Chamber of Commerce, meeting | in the Willard hotel last night. Milton Fairchild, chairman of the | public school committee, reported that the “bad logic exercised by officials of | the bureau of the budget,” in setting a ‘limit to estimates of appropriations necessary for school needs, was the cause of all school ills. The dangerous and unsightly condi- tion of school property and grounds should be given immediate attention, Fairchild added. Before any proposal for the establishment of a junior col- lege here should be given consideration, Fairchild declared, school authorities /and those responsible for school appro- priations should give the problem of ‘school maintenance their attention. Move for Salary Raise. Representative Charlies Eaton, | New Jersey, and .Commissioner Sidney F. Taliaferro addressed the meeting. The organization adopted a resolu- tion introduced by Col. Robert N. Harper, calling for an increase in the | salaries of District commissioners from | $7,500 to $10,000 a year. President Martin A. Leese announced that plans were progressing for an in- dustrial exposition here March 9 to 19. Industrial deve’opment policies of the organization will be announced at the January meeting One of the greatest problems of the country today, Representative Eaton _ declared, is in having fewer but more 'capable men to handle public affairs. | The only way the government can get | better officials, however, he said, is by | offering them a good salary.

Commissioner Taliaferro declared it was his aim to help make Washington the model city of the world. The city, as originally planned, has outgrown itself, the commissioner asserted, add- ing that it now rests with the authori- ties for the responsibility of laying per- manent foundations for a greater Wash- ington that will endure for all time. Leese announced that the officers and ten new directors of the organization would be elected at tne next meeting. The mid-winter banquet will be held in February, he said. E. C. Graham, presi- P.

COMMITTEE TO HOLD HEARINGS ON FITNESS Opponents Say the President Seeks to Influence Decisions of Commission. By NORMAN W. BAATER. There appeared to be real war in the making yesterday between the Senate and President Coolidge. There has been disagreement on good many tions since the opening of Congress, but the nomination of Cyrus E. Woods, of Pennsylvania, to be a member of the Interstate Commerce Commission, bids fair to be the major dispute of the ses- between the executive and legislative branch. t took only a few moments yesterday morning for the interstate commerce ommittee of the Senate to decide the Woods appointment was a matter of too great concern to be settled off hand. Hearings on the fitness of the ‘cormner Ambassador to Spain and Japan will be held beginning January 6. Members of the committee said yes- terday afternoon it would be surpris- ng if there were four votes in that body in fator of Woods’ confirmation DIED Puesdar, Decen residence, 1475 Columbia : SOPHIE OK kley, aged sixts ; \ f nt e lnursday, December 23, ‘rinent private BARKLE Y—0)1 t ie r | ER, wife ne * bye LAS, Monday, Dece FRANKLIN rear | start from Humphres Wednesday, December 2 Funeral services 2 !

' ' the rate- | Coal States Fight Woods. | The selection of Woods is fought by |senators from the coal States of West Virginia that Woods’ connection with Penn- sylvania coal interests makes him unfit for service on a body so largely con- cerned with railroads and coal. Some 'years ago Woods was counsel for the ‘Pittsburgh Coal Co.. a legal connec- tion which he no longer has, but mem- bers of the Senate feel that influences of that association may have their ef- ,fect after he becomes a member of the Interstate Commerce Commission. There is, in addition, some criticism 'due to the fact Woods was the titular nanager, if nothing else, of the cam- |paign of Senator George Wharton Pep- |per and Gov. Fisher in the Pennsyl- |vania primary. Friends of Woods | sist he was engaged in a work of har- monizing the various political elements in the Republican party in Pennsyl- vania and not in touch with the ex- penditures made in behalf of Pepper and Fisher Senators who have been interested in the investigation of the Pennsylvania primary say, however, that Woods was manager in fact and that they wish to examine him to determine just close his connection with the $1,000,000 fund distributed in behalf of the two candidates for whom he was working. Another nomination which was de- ferred until the same date by the in- terstate commerce committee yester- day was that of Abram F. Myers, named on the Federal Trade Commission. A number of progressive senators asked for investigation of with which Myers was concerned while serving as a special assistant in the De- partment of Justice. | i j | lieletives | Mernbers please take noti: Decembe r 9. 19°6 » 4 t residence, 1005 Eighth street north vant.

The regular army officers discouraged over the state of affairs, are beginning to lose heart. “The American soldier today, in the midst of national prosperity, is being fed with a lighter ration and less va- riety than before the war. His horse, if he is a mounted man, is given less forage, and in the artillery his mules are underfed. “Of 40,100 horses and mules in the regular army this year, the average age of over 30,000 is 17 years. The exces- sive age of the animals renders them unfit for vigorous drills or marches. “In a majority of cases the officers /and men of our army are living in tumble-down wooden shacks, built as temporary structures when we entered the war ten years ago. Frequently they must go into their own pockets if their quarters are to be made comfortable. “In every war we have fought, not excepting the last one, we have suf- fered unnecessary defeats and exces- sive casualties because of unqualified | officers.”’ Has Brilllant Record.

He has served in infantry, cavalry and artillery branches of the army and un- til America entered the world war he was in the British and French ambu- lance service. He was with the Rain- bow division from its organization and for a time in 1918 was in command of the Eighty-third infantry brigade, al- though holding the commission of a colonel. In 1921 he was commissioned | a brigadier general in the Illinois na- | tional guard. He holds several decora- tions for bravery, both from this coun- try and France.

The Illinois river improvement, which would cost $3,500,000, was originally proposed by Representative W. E. Hull (Republican), Lllinoits. It calls for a channel 9 feet deep and 200 feet wide the river with the Mississippi. Under a compromise reached in the Senate an amendment was added that nothing in the bill was to be con- strued as authorizing diversion of water from Lake Michigan at Chicago. Provision also is made for a 6-foot channel in the Missouri river from Kansas City to Sious City, Iowa. The first appropriation would be restricted to $12,000,000. Senate Blocks Plans For Holiday Recess (By Associated Press.) Quitting last night without adopting the joint resolution calling for a holi- day recess from today until January 2, the Senate temporarily blocked House plans for adjourning over the full Christmas and New Year period. The House had agreed to meet today and adjourn immediately, while, under present plans, the Senate probably will try to get started on the interior sup- ply bill before it adjourns. House lead- ers probably will wait a short time be- fore quitting to see what the Senate plans to do, but in any event they are determined to take a vacation. Under the Constitution, one body can not ad- journ for longer than three days with- out the consent of the other, and Rep- resentative Tilson, the Republican leader, and a few other members pro- pose to remain here and formally meet and adjourn every three days. U. S. Inquiry of Stock Dividend Gifts Asked (By Associated Press.) A Federal Trade Commission investi- gation of the practice of corporations in giving stock dividends was proposed in a resolution yesterday by Senator Norris (Republican), Nebraska, who said such dividends were given as a means of protecting stockholders from income taxes. he resolution made no mention of recent large stock dividends, merely asking the trade commission to report on the amount of such issues declared before and since the Supreme Court ruled they were not subject to the in- come tax. It also would have the com- mission report on the status of stock dividends under the antitrust laws.

Senators Sought Delay. The announcement of Gov. Len Small, of Illinois, that Frank L. Smith had accepted appointment to the United States Senate and would re- port here after the holiday recess in an effort to take his seat, was-taken yesterday to mean that the Illinois man had decided to disregard all advice from Washington and make his own fight The last suggestion made to Smith ington until the latter part of Janu- ary so as to enable the Senate to dis- pose of some of the appropriation bills. The feeling was, and these senti- ments were transmitted to Smith, that if Smith did not insist on disrupting the order of business with the dispute over his case it might be possible to win over enough senators to enable him to take the oath of office before voting on his right to the seat. Senate belief yesterday was, however, that if Smith comes here immediately after the holiday recess the members of the Senate will be governed by much the same feelings that they were when the appointment was first announced and deny him the right even to enter the Senate doors.

They point out that the measure merely would authorize the cruiser construction and that there Is no intention of attempting to get an appropriation at this session of Con- gress to begin work on any of the ships. Members of the committee, however, do feel that funds should be provided at once for the three cruisers already authorized by Congress, for which the budget made no provision.

P.).—An/| entirely new issue arose this evening | to cloud the horizon of Premier Musso- | lini’s consistent efforts to achieve per- ,manent friendly relations between the — ‘furthermore, | church and the state. The Italian gov- ernment interpreted the criticism of the administration contained in the Pope's allocution yesterday as contest- ing fasism’s right to control the educa- tion of Italian youth. This point, an official spokesman as- serted to the correspondent of the As- | sociated Press, is the fundamental feat- ure of the allocution, which sidered the most utterance since the beginning of the present pontificate. The Pope’s expressed disapproval of the is con- | fascist conception of the state and his condemnation of sporadic acts of vio- by the government as secondary de- tails. The acts of violence, upon which the pontiff lengthily dwelled, the past that the reference in the allo- cution to them came as a shock and surprise, not only to the government, | but to both political and ecclesiastical circles. Cites Words of Pontiff. In view of the duce’s prompt steps to nip i nthe bud any antichurch man- ifestation and his unfailing policy of concillation, the informant declared, it was obvious that the Pope’s true in- tention in criticizing the regime could be found in another paragraph of the allocution, namely: “It seems that an obscure confirmed by clouds of suspicions, in- terferences and difficulties, hangs over the activities of Catholic organizations, for the most part concerning the youth of the ‘Catholic Action organization,’ which is the apple of our eye. that the education and formation of Christian youth, which is an essential part of our mandate, ‘eundis docete,’ is imperiled.” The Pope’s remarks, it was stated, obviously refer to the strength of the fascist balilla and vanguard organiza- tions which are intended to train boys between the ages of 8 and for their eventual entrance into the fascist party or the black shirt militia. Statutes to Be Published. The Holy See fears, the informant declared, that these organizations in themselves are antireligious, potential dangers to the continued existence of the various Catholic youth organizations, the “Catholic Pioneers,” which equivalent of the Boy Scouts. The government, on the other hand.

The fascists objected to the Catholic organizations, first, because they were, essentially international, and, second, because, it is claimed, in many parts of Italy they are still allied with the popular party adherents, who are sien. | fascist. The Catholics maintain that! the accusation of meddling in politics has been used as a pretext for an at- tempt to interfere or destroy their or- |ganizations, which, they assert, being purely religious should not owe al- legiance to any political or state power. ALIBIS INTRODUCED IN MELLETT TRIAL| Canton, Ohio, Dec. 21 (By A. P.).— Tom McDermott, of Nanty-Glo, Pa., who surrendered his brother, Patrick Eugene, to authorities who sought him as an alleged slayer of Don R. Mellett, Canton publisher, took the stand in his brother’s defense at his trial for mur- der here today. Most of his testimony was dictated in a whisper to the court stenographer out of the jury’s hearing and concerned the alleged transactions between the McDermott family and the prosecuting attorneys prior to McDermott’s surren- der. important political | Floyd Streitenberger, of Fairfield, Ohio, former Canton police detective, testified that Louls Mazer, indicted jointly with McDermott, Streitenberger home at the time Mel- was murdered. He said Mazer visited him at his request to confer about a police dog. Half a day was devoted to testimony of members of a party which, the defense contends, Ben Rudner, also indicted for the murder, was attending at the time the niase-leei occurred. The alibis of Mazer and Rudner were introduced by the defense to refute the State’s claims that a gonspiracy existed among Rudner, McDermott and Mazer to kill the editor because of his edi- torial attacks on the “underworld,” of which the trio are alleged to have been leaders.

The commissioners also voted to ask Congress not to order further reductions in the cost to the District for lighting. A communication was ad- dressed to the District committees of Congress setting forth that in the cost of street lighting in Washing- ton has averaged $21 per street lamp, whereas the average cost per lamp in eighteen other cities was $51, including some cities with municipally operated plants. A reduction just has been ef- fected to less than $20 for 1927, and the commissioners told the members of Congress they did not think the rate should go any lower. The annual remission of fines of policemen who lately suffered penalties, as a sort of Christmas expression of good will, was made by the commis- sioners. Sergt. Milton D.

AMERICA ARMS ITS ASSAILANTS. The aggressions of the Mexican government against Nicaragua have brought about a situa- tion in which the United States government finds itself a participant in the process of ex- tending communism in Central America. It is permitting the Calles government to obtain arms and ammunition. which is sent to Nica- razua to destroy republican government in that country. After the United States had recognized the Obregon government in Mexico, in accordance with the solemn promise of Obregon to fulfill international obligations and to respect the rights of Americans in Mexico, a revolutionary The i nited States. as an act of friendship toward movement was started against Obregon. the Mexican government, placed an embargo upon all arms shipments from this country to those ordered by the Obregon Mexico, except government.

So Minneapolis was ordered and di- _ rected to turn surplus money order funds over | to the postmaster at St. Paul. Instead, the Minneapolis official sent the funds to Washington. He was given per- emptory orders to obey MacDonald. But he chose to transmit to Chicago. Then he tried explanations. MacDonald insisted that he be disciplined or removed from office. His name was Ankeny, and the Postmaster General was John Wanamaker. Upon his appearance in the office of the latter he did not wait to be ques- tioned, but blurted out: ‘‘Mister Postmaster General, you don't know anything of the feeling between the two cities. Minneapolis money won’t go to St. Paul. I'll be damned if I will send a dime from my of- fice to that burg. You may appoint some one else in my place, but it will make no difference. He won't be allowed to remain in Hennepin county if he dares to commit such a crime, and you may as well realize that right now.’’ Thereupon Chicago was made the deposit agency for Minneapolis postal funds. MUSCLE SHOALS. Efforts are to be made to have the Muscle Shoals report referred to the Senate commit- it that the committee will report in favor of re- jecting all bids and government operate the Muscle Shoals plant. The special committee of Congress which received bids for operating Muscle Shoals made a careful inquiry into the subject and recom- mended the acceptance of a certain bid. This action was taken after a committee of experts, headed by Gen. Jadwin, chief of engineers, had made an analysis of the bids and had reported in favor of the bid which the congressional committee finally approved. The pigeonholing of the Muscle Shoals re- port would probably result in continued delay and dispute, with loss to the government and the country. Agriculture is now being de- prived of fertilizer and Southern communi- ties are being deprived of power because of the failure of Congress to act. Now that an acceptable bid has been made, which will in- sure the effective operation of the plant for both fertilizer and power production, without any additional appropriations by Congress, there is no valid excuse for further delay. The bid should be accepted by Congress. If Congress can not trust its own joint commit- tee, its chief of engineers, and its best qual- ified scientific officials, it is evident that noth- ing will ever be done with Muscle Shoals. The plant will fall into ruins and millions of public money will be lost. tee on agriculture. Apparently is hoped recommending that the HER MAIDEN NAME. The alleged refusal of the register of copy- rights of the Congressional Library to decide that a married woman may take out a right in her maiden name seems to have stirred some of the ladies to deep resentment and loud protest. The stir created induces the New York Herald Tribune to issue a warning to the register wherein he is threatened with the fury of the National Woman’s Party unless he ‘“‘makes it snappy’’ and gets his decision into print without delay. But there will be no furious attack upon the register by the ladies, for the simple reason that, in the vernacular, they ‘‘have no kick coming.’’ The register merely informs the au- thoress that it is unusual to grant copyright to a married woman in her maiden name. He fur- ther suggests that complications may arise, but if the applicant insists the necessary record is made and the protection of the copyright law is extended forthwith.

If the problem of balancing production and consumption is to be controlled and regulated by government restriction in production, it will soon involve the government in economic | chaos. MONTGOMERY COUNTY. Maj. E. Brooke Lee, delegate-elect to the Maryland house of delegates, and candidate for | the speakership, made public last Monday a plan for the creation of a new suburban zone in Montgomery county, territory of the Washington sanitary suburban district, to be governed by a board of commis- | sioners, for the purpose of. providing immedi- | ately for the future growth of the county in | full consonance with the growth of Washing- ton and the National Capital area. Maj. Lee recently was appointed by Gov. Ritchie to co- operate with officials of the National Capital park and planning commission. The plan was offered because of disapproval of several proposals now pending to incorpor- ate some of the existing towns and the creation of other subdivisions of the county as special tax areas. Such a program might possibly make impossible any future large public im- provements, and undoubtedly would make more difficult the work of the park and plan- ning commission, which would find it necessary to conduct individual negotiations with a large number of small separate units. Suburban areas require tax incomes over and above farming areas, however, to provide such serv- ices as trash removal and fire protection, and the first method to suggest itself of obtaining such funds in a county containing both types of areas is by incorporation of the villages and towns. operative development. It has become generally recognized that the development of Montgomery country hinges upon and must keep pace with the development of Washington, for the dividing line in most cases is geographical rather than physical. Pos- sibly the Lee plan would praevide a proper solu- tion, and the Maryland legislature will do weil to give it full consideration, CONGRESS INSUBORDINATE. Congress has not only failed to obey. the orders of Wayne B. Wheeler in the matter of appropriating $500,000 for the undercover squad of the prohibition unit, but the Senate has gone still further in the way of bedience of orders relative to the- judiciary. During the last session, late in June, the House passed and sent to the Senate a bill to authorize the appointment of extra district judges in several of the States. Included the authorization, and in harmony with the requirements of the Antisdloon league, were three additional for the southern district of New York. It was pointed out that the crowd- ing of the dockets of the district courts in the eastern and southern districts had gone so far that years must elapse before pending cases involving the trial of offenders against the pro- hibition law can be reached. The administra- tor for New York city and the eastern and southern sections of the State said in an inter- view that instead of three additional courts to try such offenders, 50 or more could be profit- ably employed in the task without affording sufficient facilities. The Senate committee on judiciary appears to take the view that there are sufficient court officers in New York and Brooklyn without the creation of additional courts. The House bill, therefore, has been amended in the com- mittee, and as it reaéhes the Senate calendar it is without the paragraph‘ authorizing the | additional judges for the southern district of the State, although the provision for an ad- ditional ‘‘up State’’ judge remains. eee + ee to include the general | This plan invariably works against fo- diso- | .

Why does the Department of State stand mute and hesitating in the face of this attack upon the integrity of republican government in this hemisphere? Is it afraid to enforce the Monroe doctrine? FIGHTING TWINS MAKE: PEACE. War has raged near the laughing water of Minnehaha for so long that the memory of men runneth not to the contrary. But now Minneapolis and St. Paul, the fighting twins, have decided to bury the hatchet and smoke the pipe-stone pipe of peace. Once the twin cities were ten miles apart, « and even so late as the time when McKinley wes almost nominated by a woman waving a flag from the gallery of the convention hall at the Minneapolis convention, the territory be- tween the two was known as the ‘Interurban Tract,’’ the residents on which were scorned by the one city and hated by the other. But time has eliminated the rural space be- tween the two, and only the imaginary boun- dary exists. To all intents and purposes Min- neapolis and her saintly twin are one munici- pality. The other day the armistice which has existed for a decade was made into a treaty of amity and peace, and it was ratified at a “get-together dinner’ whereat were read let- ters from President Coolidge and several mem- bers of his cabinet, all of which breathed con- gratulations over ‘‘the tidings of great joy”’ which had floated out of the west. It is regrettable that the late chief of the money order division of the Postoffice Depart- ment could not have lived long enough to hear of the rapprochement of the rivals. Mr. Mac- Donald had more trouble over Minneapolis than over any other office from which money orders were sent abroad. Owing to the great _ mumber of Scandinavian immigrants who re- __ ‘sided there and who were constant senders of than 100 per cent. St. Paul, being the head- quarters of the northwestern division of the -_ railway mail service, had constant use for ‘more money to pay the railway mail clerks into a tantrum over the alleged official inter- ference with the right of the fair sex to ignore their married names if they so elect. GOVERNMENT RESTRICTION. There appears to be a movement on foot to solve the surplus question by employing some form of government restriction. For in- stance, it is proposed to solve the cotton sur- plus problem by establishing a Federal agency yo control and restrict the amount of cotton planted and raised for the markets. Likewise there is a movement on foot to establish a Fed- eral agency to control and restrict the amount of corn and wheat to be raised and marketed. This opens up a large question involving a disturbance of established economic principles, especially that of the law of supply and de- mand. The proposed plan seeks to control and restrict the amount of food products and farm products so as to raise the price to con- sumers. Such an exercise of power, if success- ful, would upset many accepted theories and principles of political economy. The question arises: If the government can control and limit the production of agricul- tural products in order to raise prices, why can | it not control and limit the production of all commodities, through Federal agencies deal- ing with leather, wool, timber, ores, machinery, and all other articles consumed by the public? If there is authority for taking control of cot- ton there is authority for taking control of wool. The end of the process would mean government control of all industrial'and agri- cultural activities. The result of such a pro- cedure is perfectly clear to all who think. By suggesting such a plan, are not its pro- moters approaching the problem from the wrong end? Instead of government restriction of the production of agricultural or industrial commodities, an increase in their consump- tion should be promoted and encouraged. Ever since the world war the tendency in most foreign countries has been to produce more. Production of agricultural products has more than kept pace with population and con- sumption. Production of manufactured com- modities has well nigh reached that point. The only factor that saves the United States in this regard is the constantly expanding con- suming power of the people. This expansion | would not be so impoverished. by Senator Capper, chairman of the Senate Dis- trict committee, and Representative Zihlman,. chairman of the House District committee, designed to prevent improvements being made on property sought by the National Capital park and planning commission while negotia- tions for the acquisition of the lands are being conducted. In brief, the bills provide against making improvements after the commission has petitioned the courts to condemn the prop- erty, provided the President has approved the petition. The commission would be required to set up a fund as evidence of good faith, and if after the property had been condemned the commission had not taken it over within two years, all proceedings would be stopped and from the established fund the commission would be required to repay the owner for the loss sustained during the two-year peri8a in which the property had been allowed to stand idle. Apparently several cases already. have arisen which make such legislation desirable. In one case the owner is reported to have gained knowledge that his property had been selected for a playground site, whereupon he hastily contracted for a large building, the re- moval of large quantities of material to the site, and for a quick excavation, which so greatly increased the value of the property that the project had to be’ abandoned, The legislation sought would prevent sim- ilar practices. Apparently it’ is so worded that both the commission and the public would be afforded complete protection, not only dur- ing the process of the negotiations, but also if it should be found necessary to abandon any contemplated project. The taxpaying public is entitled to protection against citizens ‘who try to barter the public benefit for individual gain, and who frequently succeed in. blocking public improvements. A great and prosperous nation, which ‘ does not,need the money, is exacting pay- ment from impoverished countries in a way which arouses bad feeling far in ex- cess of any value received.—Baltimore Sun. If the countries in question did not‘ over- extend themselves in trying to swallow and digest territories taken frem the eneway they a policewomen put on trial for drunk- enness. The limit of sex-equality hasn't been reached yet. We shall come to it in due time. Variants. Philadelphia Inquirer: Quoting Sen- ator Sheppard’s statement that the ‘wets’ have as much chance of modify- ing the Volstead act as a humming bird has of “fiying to Mars with the Wash- ington monument tied to its tail,” the Boston Transcript says “the honorable senator thus furnishes variant for the much-quoted observation concerning the snowball in the nether regions.” And, it might be added, the Elbert Hubbard classic relative to the chance a celluloid mouse has when being chased through the same place by an asbestos cat. PP Pay First.

If that’s compromising with evil, there appears to be some excuse for it. A Progressive Champion. Binghamton Press: Mickey Walker, having dropped his welterweight title, picks up the middleweight champion- ship; now, if he continues to take on weight, and somebody knocks him out from under his present crown, he can bob up and challenge Gene Tunney. America, | St. Louis Post-Dispatch: Our na- tional trait of lavish expenditure has at last justified itself. The soap produced in the United States in 1925 was valued at $270,273,000. !

Why Not Cancel Reparations? New York World: As long as the Eu- ropean allies insist that European peace cah be stabilized around the payment by Germany of a sum which is now more than $300,000,000 annually, they will not persuade America that. the peace of the world is seriously endan- gered by payments to America of sums which are from ‘a half to a tenth of the German obligation, ae Side.

To the Editor of The Post—Sir: The pension bill for the widows of civil war veterans is certainly discriminating. What matter if these widows became wives prior to or ten or fifteen years after the close of the war. When the soldiers returned from the battlefields disfigured or crippled, did the young womanhood of that day refuse to mate with them? Most emphatically they did not, but instead followed them to the altar with the light of love and sacrifice shining in their eyes. I will ask our legislators to turn back to that early period when they didn't have .the facilities to work with that we have now and witness the young wife who often was compelled to do rough, heavy work for which her sol- dier husband was Incapacitated. And also to remember that the pension in those days was meager indeed. And I ask why tn the name of justice should this rich and prosperous nation deny a living pension to these widows who lent so freely of their young Strength during the restoration period after the close of the war. When I think of our present prosperity, based 2s it surely is on the shoulders of these splendid women, I refleét with the deepest shame that they have been > denied the allowance necessary for their comfort. Let us earnestiy hope that our legis- lators will hasten to correct their grievous mistake, and that in so doing they will have the hearty support of DARING. — _ Mooresville, Ind., December 30,

THE WASHINGTON POST: WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 22, 1926. -_— —— ee ee - _ a -———— ee - 1a ANYWHERE TO ANYWHERE-—-BY TELEPHONE “1 _— There is a way to SAVE on your LONG DISTANCE CALLS Isw this about the way you make most.of your long distance calls? When the operator answers yoy tell her “I want. to speak to John Y. Evans, the Ajax Manufacturing Company 2.34 Pearl Street, New York City.’’ She must then con- nect you with Mr. Evans and no one else. Here is a way you can do much of your long distance telephoning for Jess money and with greater speed. Mr. Evans is probably in his office when you make your call and if not, someone else can talk for him. Then why not tell the operator “‘I want anyone at the Ajax Manufac- turing Company,’ or simply give her their telephone number if you know it. On a call of say 150 miles to a particular person, the charge is $1.20; the rate when we simply connect you to the out-of-town telephone is 95C. The first way of calling is termed person-to-person ser- vice; the other and simpler way is station-to-station service. The latter makes less work for our operators, with less use of our lines and we pass the sav- How to make a station-to-station call: ings along to you. If you know the number, tell the . operator : “This is Franklin 1234. I want Chestnut 2468, Philadelphia.” If you don’t know the number of the desired telephone, say : "This #s Franklin 1134. I want anyone at the telephone of L. Q. Jones, 172. Broad Street, Philadelphia.” Think of this when ‘you are making long distance calls,either business or social. Telephoneusers are turning more and more to sta- tion-to station service as a speedier and cheaper way of doing their long distance telephoning. Over half the messages we now handl- are on this basis. How to make a person-to-person call: After giving the operator the tele- phone nutaber or the name under which the telephone is listed, say: "I wish te speak to Mr. A. B. Smith.” 2 TELEPHONE COMPAN rane ree — i om KE AND POTOM | ae : - —_— OT —— eS Oo?

CROWE TO PRESS TRIAL: idliseiteidsieeceiae Chicago, Dec. 21 (By A. P.)).—Five | days after he beat 6-year-old Walter | Schmith to death with a backsmith’s Rich Dignitaries Crowded Holy kamily From Inn Modern Travelers Inconvenienced by Custom of Cen-| turies That Gives Grandees Right to Exclude All Others From Hotels In Near East. By WILLIAM T. ELLIS. Author of “Bible Lands Today; Traveler's Experience.” Tragedy and pathos touch the tale of A | Christmas in the luminous words, “For | there was no room in the inn.” That Harold Joseph Croarkin, 26, was in-| phrase strikes the strings of the dra- | Seclusion without a formal charge, but |of the dead boy, and Dr. Jacob Good- | boys, but he denied that any of the 'Cook county in 30 years, and personally | | | ' | ; dicted today for murder.

The coroner’s phy- Ssicilan testified that the lad had not been mistreated, and that testimony Was accepted as bearing out Croarkin’s confession that he slew the child in fear that little Walter would tell his parents that Croarkin had tried to force | him to commit an improper act. Croarkin was identified today by six little girls as having made improper | advances toward them within two months. Croarkin has confessed that he mistreated three little girls and five half dozen tots who confronted him to- day were among his victims. The date for Croarkin’s trial will be set tomorrow. Robert E. Crowe, State’s attorney, announced that he personally would lead the prosecution, with a de- mand for the death penalty. Mr. Crowe, as chief justice of the criminal courts, sentenced to death Thomas Fitzgerald, an aged eccentric, who criminally attacked and slew 8- year-old Janet Wilkinson, the only death sentence upon a plea of guilty in led the prosecution of Nathan F. Leo- pold, jr., and Richard Loeb, who pleaded guilty as the slayers of Bobby Franks. They are serving life sentences in the State penitentiary. Defense lawyers talked to Croarkin after he had been taken to the county | jail, the first opportunity they had to do so since he surrendered Sunday. A plea of not guilty will be entered when he is arraigned, probably tomorrow, and a jury trial will be asked, they said. Before the jury, expert testi- mony will be offered in an effort to | the ordinary sense of fitness of things. Ten thousand sermons and stories have been pivoted on this phrase. Why was there “no room in the inn?” Is there anything in the con- tinuing usages of Bible lands that ex- plains the plight of the two anxious visitors to Bethlehem from Nazareth? And what is the significante of the | refuge in the stable? Some characteristics are true of the whole Orient. I first approached the East, more than twenty years ago, by way of Japan; and I well remember how I revolted at the still prevalent usage whereby a “daymio” or other grandee could oust all the guests of an inn, so that his nobility could oc- cupy it alone. In 1910, at a town in Palestine, my companion and myself were denied lodging in the one hotél because a German prince was expected, and had commandeered the whole es- tablishment. The proprietor wrung his hands as he told ‘us the bad news. « ~ « 2 That is the way of the undemocratic East. On Christmas night some years ago when I was traveling in upper Mesopotamia over the route of the Wise Men I came to the town of Sevrek. which had a good khan, or inn room. Because I bore letters from the Sublime Porte the khanji was all for throwing out the occupants of the room, that I might occupy it, which summary ac- tion, of course, my American sense of fairness would not permit. The inn- keeper would only have been following the custom which obtained in Bethle- hem clad carpenter from Nazareth, | Joseph, applied for lodgings for himself show that Croarkin is subnormal and | Croarkin is expected to repudiate that part of his confession in which acknowledged degeneracy. | and for his young wife with drawn face We have enough facts in the Gospei ' to enable us to reconstruct the scene in hye | He told his | lawyers that he confessed degeneracy | after he had been questioned for more than fifteen hours and in order to get some rest. “Missing-Link” Skull Held Elephant Bone Amsterdam, Dec. 21 “missing-link” skull, which was re- ported to have been discovered in Trinil, Java, in September by the Dutch professor Dr. C.

The best rooms in that inn had been requisitioned by Roman officers.. Rich merchants had the rest, with perhaps a religious dignitary or two lodging in the innkeeper’s own A poor man simply had no chance. All the private lodgings were taken by reletives, gathered for the census, and it may have been that urgent need for immediate shelter for Mary, her hour upon her, did not per- mit Joseph to make a thorough search of the town. Nothing is more explica- ble than why “there was no room in the inn” for a wayfaring workingman. s al ~ Turned from the door of the Beth- lehem khan, with many sincerely re- gretful expressions on the part of the innkeeper, what should Joseph do? I! think the explanation of what followed is the simple, natural one. The drivers. loitering about the door of the inn, as is customary, heard the colloquy. They saw Joseph was of the laboring class, like themselves. Perhaps, also, they perceived the plight of Mary. With the universal friendliness and fraternity of the poor, they provided help. At the turning of a rich’ man from the overcrowded khan, they would have laughed, but here was one of thelr kind in distress. They themselves lodged with their horses and donkeys | i } | ' when the travel-stained, poorly | grave | in the spacious and warm cave stable | at the back of the guest rooms.

Whereas it is the usage of the East to stable only the donkeys and the horses, the other animals are not kept indoors. Especially is the dog not a household pet: “Without are dogs” is a Bible passage that is literally true. In all probability, the dumb companions of the birth were only the horses and donkeys of the guests of the inn. Thus it came to pass that the Babe was born as a guest of lowly toilers, in friendly nearness to man’s best dumb servants. His first friends were the commonest workingmen of Bethlehem, the horse-tenders and the shepherds.

Work, the international authority, will answer your auction bridge questions. A stamped, self-addressed envelope must accompany each request for replies.) / HE point for today is: : Declarer should finesse to catch a Queen whenever he has less than nine cards of the suit in his two hands; with nine or more, he should not finesse. This pointer, like that of yesterday, must be qualified when conditions re- sulting from the bidding or the pre- vious play indicate that the finesse should be made or refused. It does not pay to follow a hunch; the thing to do is to follow the mathematical chances. With Ace-King-Jack in one hand, or with Ace-King in one hand and Jack-10 in the other, or with one of the two) top honors in one hand and the other | top honor and the jack in the other, | the finesse should be tried when the total holding of the suit in the two | hands is less than nine; but with a | total of nine, the Ace and King should | be led, with the hope that the adverse | Queen either will be alone or but '/! singly guarded. The double tenace—Ace-Queen-10— | presents another special problem, the | | question being whether to play the Queen or the Ten on the first trick. Again the answer is determined math- ematically. If Declarer’s two hands con- tain a total of eight cards or fewer, the double finesse (i. e., playing the Ten) should be taken; but with a total of nine or ten cards, the single finesse (i. e., playing the Queen) should be selected. It goes without saying that the lead should be toward the hand containing the double tenace, and that the play should be suitably varied if the Second Hand play an honor. The following table summarizes cor- rect finessing by the Declarer. Total Cards of Suit Holding in Declarer’s two Hands Play | | Ace-Queen 11 10 or less 9 or more 8 or less Ace-Queen Ace-King-Jack Ace-King-Jack Ace-Queen-Ten 9 or 10 Ace-Queen-Ten 8 or less Tomorrow: Original bids.

Ts custom of taking a man’s arm is rather out of date in cosmo- When we see a woman hanging on the arm of her husband or her fiance or her best young man (who is about to become one and the other) we know she comes from a smaller town or from the coun- try. Not that there’s one bit of ‘harm in following a country fashion in a great metropolis, but that the person doing it should be in a position to know that metropolitan people usually don’t do what she is doing. Then she can go on if she pleases. he is at least informed. And, after all, she kas a right to do as she likes. A great many customs which came from a feeling on the woman's part that she was more attractive when clinging and helpless, and on the man’s that he was more manly for being clung to, have been discarded, and this is one of them. Unless you have to lean real weight on a man’s arm be- cause you require the support, you are better off walking beside him. It leaves politan places. Conduct and Common Sense SINGLETON A you both freer, and more comfortable for being free. In all the social relations between young men and women of the “special world” this mutual freedom is apparent. They are much more comradely than young men and women of the “general world.” and-take between them is almost as if they were all boys—nice boys—to- gether. Whereas in the general world the more a girl can make her “feller” wait upon ker, spend money for her and inconvenience himself in a thou- sand ways for her showing-off, the bet- ter. Girls in that large circle value their conquests by the amount of trou- ble and expense they can put them to. Like many customs which had their rise in the spoiled-beauty days.of femi- | nine fashion, this has spread to the outside world. The center of smart- ness dropped it long ago, as it drops many fancies and manners picked up by the public and made popular. Wom- en demand civility and chivalry still, but not at the expense of common sense. This is wandering a long way from arm-taking, where it started. But its theme is that to encumber is no longer to enchant. (Copyright, 1926, by Vogue.) | Clean Water Aids Plant Life EAR JIMMY: For a thing so lack- | with along these ines, Jimmy, but I’d | especially recommend two as being at D ing in visible substance, clean water has an astonishing ability to maintain plant life. Maybe you've thought of its horticultural usefulness as being restricted to conditions where water is combined with some recognized plant food, and to keep cut -flowers fresh for a few days in bowl or vase. I'll wager you never realized that it is quite capable not only of maintaining certain leafage in healthy greenness for months during the winter, but of actually in- ducing a little new growth to appear. It's a regular liquid Aladdin's lamp in some ways, if you happen to understand what they are. What I’m thinking about is not the well-known growing of flowering bulbs in water, but rather the winter keeping of sprays and branches of various shrubs and vines. With the bulbs it’s a case of stimulating a growing power which is latent in the corns themselves, whereas the cut twigs face the problem ef keeping healthy after their energy has already been put forth. There are several different kinds of once easy to obtain, successful to keep, and really delightful when arranged in. appropriate vases, jars or bowls. One is) Christmas | greens, or club moss, as the botanfsts | call this lovely little ground-creeping | Twigs of the former | and short sprays of the latter will keep | fresh and green from now until spring | laurel and the other is evergreen vine. if you supply them with fresh water. There’s just one thing that makes me hesitate a little in mentioning these two plants in such a connection, and that is the fact that In many localities they have already suffered so heavily at the hands of a thoughtless public that they have been virtually exterminated. I know they’re still abundant in the woods around your neighborhood, but if they were not I’d urge you to gather the few pleces you need from some dealer who grows them for the market, or else not gather them at all! You and Peg will agree with me in this, I know, for you're both conservationists at heart. Yours always, GARDNER. plants that are worth experimenting (Copyright, 1926, House and Garden.) CASCADES MAY HAVE | BIG NATIONAL PARK’ Planned in Connection With Huge Power Project on Ruby Creek. Seattle, Dec. 21 (By A. P.).—A na- tional park rivaling Yellowstone and Yosemite parks in beauty, is planned by J. D. Ross, Seattle electrical superin- tendent, in conjunction with a $75,- 000,000 power project now under con- struction in the Cascades, 100 miles from here. A 365-foot: dam on Ruby creek will form a lake reaching 4 miles to an- other dam, 520 feet high. The higher dam will create another lake extending northward into Canada. The lakes will be utilized for an inland tourist route, winding through a rugged section blanketed with vari-colored vegetation and timber. Elevators will hoist passengers from one lake to another. Fishing, boating, swimming and camping will be avail- able. The power plants will be beau- Porcupine and Magpie Ruin Wyoming Crops Cheyenne, Wyo., Dec. 21 (By A. P.).— The porcupine and the magpie have been playing havoc in Wyoming. The winter food of porcupines is largely the bark and cambium layers of trees. The trees often are girdled, and Albert M. Day, State leader of ro- dent control, says dead trees are evi- dence of the damage in all the forests.

The Black Satin Dress Paris, Dec. 21 (By A. P.).—The case sorbing the attention of the Paris jxOws W91NID VOGUE 6774 § yee writes us that she is 40 years old, but fortunately quite slender. She wants a black satin dress that she can wear now as well as in the spring—one that she can make herself, though she is not an expert seamstress. So we have sketched the dress—spread out, at the right— and worn by Theresa herself, at the left, in her new “Champion” hat, with its black crown and red brim, to add a touch of audacity. Directions for making the dress are as follows: Place seven rows of run- ning stitches at the left side below the slash, leaving the ends of the thread loose enough and long enough not to come out. Then draw the top thread in to fit the length of the slash and stitch across. Next, stitch the shoulder and under- arm seams, open and press. The neck- line may be finished on the inside with a bias fold of the fabric or with bias binding bought at the notion counter. Stitch the sleeve seam open, and press; then stitch the sleeve into the armhole and overcast the seams to- gether. Try on and adjust the side fullness—drawing all the threads at one time if possible. A lining may be put inside to hold the blouse in place, if your figure requires it. The trim- ming ends, placed at one side, may be picoted all around, then shirred in @ few rows through the center and joined to the frock.

Well, it is a lot of bunk. There is no such thing as love, girls; don’t let any fellow try to feed you such taffy. Oh, my! Before you are married you are wonderful. You're the only one in this wide, wide world. But wait, after you are married to him you are the worst woman in this whole world. He only wants you for a slave. He goes out every night. He has clubs for excuses, but that, too, is all bunk. But just let the woman suggest going out one night. O my,‘that would be terrible. Right away he says the woman’s place is at home. And there the poor woman stays. Listen, young lad, would ‘you kindly tell me where a woman has any privileges at all. Who has the worst end of married life? A woman, of course, who has the pain of children. To my opinion marriage is a lottery. A woman these days might as well stay single, because 99 per cent have to continue working after marriage.

Of course I think he should let the lady go or stay as she selects—but what do the men think of a ke-man would do in a case like this? a HOW KEEP YOUR FEET WARM. writes that when he was a child his grand- father gave him a health code, one article of which was “Keep your feet warm.” Probably this meant that a person should not expose himself to severe chilling, such as is reputed to result in pneumonia. It may have meant that a person should keep his feet warm as he sits in his library, or as she sews in her bedroom. Whether cold feet in that sense has any relation 'to long life and freedom from disease may be questioned, but it has a lot of relation to comfort and efficiency. The relatively few physicians who know something about personal hygiene have not been afraid to approve of the They are for which the last ten years has witnessed. However, they were not strong for the “ootie garage phase of the change. They are very strong for the corset- less figure. Nothing else that woman has done in the last 50 years has been so helpful. Thanks to the abandonment of the liver squeezing corset, women ho longer have chlorosis. Perhaps 25 years {rom now we will find that leaving off sorsets has brought woman’s tendency to gallstones down to the level of that of the male. Physicians approved the short dress, as compared with the old street sweeper. But they do not approve of thin socks. Dr. Parkes Weber says that wear- ing sleazy socks in winter is making the legs of women turn brown and scaly. Maybe it would be wise for the devotees of thin socks to inspect their ankles for evidence that they are turn- ing to Mesopotamian type. There are some simple procedures by which the discomfort of cold feet may be overcome or at least lessened. If fashion decrees thin socks and a woman does not feel like disobeying, there is no reason why heavier stock- ings can not be worn under the thin ones. Probably colors and textures can be found which will not show the thicker stockings underneath. But if the thicker ones do show, what of 1t? They will look better than the assort- ment of hairs, varicose veins, adhesive plaster, bandages, and minor wounds which are so much in evidence under the present dispensation. I can not think of-anything more disillusionary to the male of the species than is the frequent suggestion of the hairy ape which he sees in his travels unless it be the footprints of varicose veins. Stockings that fit too snug, or that are tied up by round-the-leg gartcrs, are likely to cause cold feet. Loose shoes are warmer than tight ones. Rubbers and other means of JUST FOLKS ___By EDGAR A.

Leading Actresses Wear U.S. Gowns (By the Associated Press.) ; The spotlight falling on the leading | women in ten outstanding plays on Broadway this season reveals the fact | that New York has ‘“‘out-designed” Paris in contributing new notes to the femi- nine wardrobe. In only two produc- | tions has Paris had a part in costume designing. And since it is always easier to go’ to the theater than to Paris, American | women, who attend the theater, accord- ing to Broadway’s best dressed ac- | tresses, may take their fashion tips this year from the stage.

THE ANGLO-SOUTH AMERICAN TRUST COMPANY (New York) OLD COLONY TRUST COMPANY (Boston) Registrars THE CHASE NATIONAL BANK OF THE CITY OF NEW YORE THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF BOSTON Authorized . 2,500,000 shares Outstanding 1,380,316 shares Nine months ended December 31, 1924...... Year ended December 31, 1925 *At $4.42 per £1 and ™ at $4.83 per £1, the average rates for the respective years. These figures are based on the Company’s method of valuing the inventory of concentrates on hand at the end of each fiscal period at the estimated net selling price. For the ten months ended October 31, 1926, production as reported by the Treasurer of the Company was 8,733 long tons and earnings as shown by the Company’s books were $5,271,885 (at $4.86 per £1). The estimated visible ore, which included only ‘positive’ and ‘probable’ bodies, as given in the report of Messrs. Yeatman & Berry, Consulting Mining Engineers, of New York, completed early in 1926, amounted to a total of 1,061,000 tons before sorting, having a total tin content of 50,289 long tons. The General Manager has reported to the Company that there is every reason to believe that the fine tin contents of new ore reserves developed during 1926 will be equal to the total tonnage of fine tin extracted from the mines during 1926. Distributions on Shares: For the nine months ended December 31, 1924, the Company made distributions on the stock aggregating $3,219,481, equal to $2.33 per share of stock now outstanding. For the year ended Decem- ber 31, 1925, the Company paid $4,355,469, equal to $3.15 per share; and for the first ten months of the current year $3,015,161, or $2.18 per share. Conversions from Pounds Sterling have been made at the rate prevailing on the day on which the distributions were paid. These payments have been referred to as distributions, rather than as dividends, as, this being a mming company, they must be regarded partly as a return of capital and partly as dividends out of profits on the capital invested, depending upon the life of the mines.” Production of Tin in Long Tons 10,284 10,039 Sefior Don Simén I. Patifio, Président of the Company, has summarized his letter describing the properties and history of the Company as follows: ‘“Patifio Mines & Enterprises Consolidated (Incorporated) was organized on July 5, 1924, for the purpose of acquiring the Uncia and Llallagua groups of tin mines located in Bolivia. In addition, the Company has purchased the Machacamarca-Uncia Railway, connecting its plants with the main line of the Antofagasta & Bolivia Railway, fifty-seven miles distant. Earnings and Production: Messrs. Price, Waterhouse & Co. advise that the earnings of Patifio Mines & Enter- prises Consolidated (Incorporated), before charging depreciation and depletion, as shown by the accounts audited in Bolivia by Messrs. Price, Waterhouse, Faller & Co., but charging additional Bolivian profits taxes paid, to the years to which they were applicable, were as below. The production of tin, as shown by the Com- pany’s records, is also given. Earnings as above $5,309,277* 7,016,222** Per Share $3.84 5.08 ENGINEERS’ REPORT: A thorough and exhaustive examination of the properties of Patifio Mines & Enterprises Consolidated (Incorporated) was completed by Messrs. Yeatman & New York, early in 1926. In their report they refer to the properties of the Company as ‘‘the two greatest tin mines in Bolivia and probably in the world”. The examination, which consumed about six months’ time, involved the taking and assaying of over 22,000 samples. This report includes a history and description of the properties, past profits and dividends, and an estimate of the visible ore reserves and of the operating profits to be derived therefrom. Copies of this report are on file in the offices of the Bankers and in the offices of the Company, both in New York, and are there available for inspection.

The been transformation has | gradual and subtle, but pronounced. The ball players have been reduced to once again their former status as the employes of baseball, mere chattels to be sold or traded at the will of the. magnates, to be directed and paid like the humblest clerks at the discretion of the club owners. Since the close of the 1926 season, the magnates, by wholesale discharges of mapagers and the release of stars, have Sounded the demise of whe reign of the ball players and the re- trogression toward the days when five-figured salaries were a rarity and long-term contracts unknown. Baseball, luffing along in the scll- same easy manner that marked the game since the organization of the American league in 1900 received its first injection of frenzied finance in 1920 when New York’s two colonels, Ruppert and Houston, of the Yankees, proceeded to buy the league pennant by purchasing out- right at fancy figures the stars of the Boston Red Sox. Babe Ruth, wsnes, Waite Hoyt, Joe Bush, Herb Pennock, Ev- erett Scott and Wally Schang were involved in the deals that transferred a pennant-winning team in Boston to Father Knickerbocker’s children in the Bronx. Rupert and Houston were the first to pay the high salaries to,their ball players. The one objective of a big leaguer was to play for a New York team. Other magnates were forced to meet the competition of the Yan- kees or the Giants and high salaries soon became general. With them the demands of the ballplayer in- creased. Efforts of the club owners to build or buy pennant-winning teams con- tributed to the frenzy of the finance of the game. Soon the baliplayers were dictating their own terms vir- tually. and usually carried their points. For a span of years New York clubs with their ne Fett check books held the upper hand and witnessed three intercity world’s series. Co +-5 wJaiii First hint of the concerted move of the magnates to put an end to the high salaries of ball- players came with the resignation of Tris Speaker as manager of the Cleveland Indians. Previously Ty Cobb had resigned as pilot of the Tigers for reasons considered personal and Eddie Collins had been released outright by Presi- dent Comiskey, of the White Sox. Speaker’s departure from the game so close upon the heels of Cobb and Collins carried much significance. Three high salaries were lopped off major league ros- ters. —— Hornsby’s case, engineered by Presi- dent Breadon, of the Cardinals, was the most apparent and open display of the new attitude of the club owners since the close of the 1926 séason. Hornsby was made a flat proposition of signing up at $50,000 for one: year or be traded. He re- fused and was traded and the deal proved the most sensational in recent years. Even the man who led his team to a league pennant and then to the world’s series championship was not to flaunt the power of the _ club owners—not in their present attitude toward high salaries and long-term contracts. Hornsby, firm in the belief that he was too valuable a player to be disposed of was rudely disillusion - ed. Breadon merely went a_ step (CONTINUED ON PAGE 17, COLUMN 8.) sMENS WEAR P GIFT SUGGESTIONS IMPORTED SILKE MUFFLERS in a lustrous arraying, showing the latest smart designs.

For every thousand that arrived to be wagered on Tin Hat and Sir Lanny there came $2,000 to be wagered on In the Eye to finish as good as third.

With disclosure of the agreement between Joe Wood, of and “Dutch” the Tigers, alleged Speaker, Cobb, the Cleveland club, Leonard, pitcher for it was declared that American league officials have known of the impending scandal for some time and that Speaker, as one of those about to be involved, wanted to get down and out of baseball before Landis completed his investigation. His that friends quoted him as saying he was willing to retire from the game in order to protect another player from the threatened scandal. Speaker is known to be a close friend of Joe Wood, and devoted to his four children. Old friends of “Spoke” quoted him as saying he would take any stigma in the impending scandal rather than force it upon Wood and his hildren. Now that the scandal has been made public, possibility of a law suit to clear Speaker’s name was suggested. As Speaker’s name was not mentioned In the letters made public by Landis his associates were free in declaring they hoped he would demand a thorough in- quiry into the charges.

OLUMBUS, Ohio, Dec. 21.—Because ® of its poor showing in the pres- ent American Professional Basket- ball league race-and its apparent fail- ure to make any effort toward adding the necessary strehgth to put it in * class with the other clubs in the cir- cult, President Joe Carr tonight an- nounced the disenfranchisement of the | Pulaski Post five, which has been rep- | resenting Detroit.

Deal Absolute, No Cash | Involved, Says McGraw | New York, Dec. 21 (By A. P.).—Rog- | | ers Hornsby will not go back to the | |Cardinals no matter what happens, | 'John J. McGraw, manager |Glants, said today. He also denied | |Trumors that cash was involved in the | itrade that sent Jimmy Ring and/| ' Frankie Frisch to the St. Louis team | for Hornsby. “There is no possibility of the Horns- by deal being called off,” McGraw told the Associated Press. “The trade is consummated, completed and ended. Hornsby is a Giant and Ring and Frisch are Cardinals. Nothing can change their status. The deal has been confirmed by telegrams exchanged be- tweet Sam Breadon, president of the: Cardinals, and myself, with John A. Heydler, president of the National! | league, agreeing.” McGraw revealed that the details of the trade actually were arranged in New York eight days ago. They were made subject to the outcome of Breadon’s final conference with Horns- by on the salary question. “As for the cash-involved McGraw added, “that is the bunk. There was not a cent involved, al- though it has been said that $100,000 changed hands. I will give $1,000 to any charity any one names if it can be proved that a penny was involved in the deal.” McGraw does not feel that Hornsby, minus his managerial responsibilities, will demand more than 830,000 for 1927, although the latter’s split with the Cardinals was due to insisting that he receive a three-year contract at $50,- 000 a year. The salary issue probably will be threshed out when McGraw and Hornsby get together. ‘ Hornsby probably will captain the Giants next year, McGraw indicated. “I think the deal should benefit both Hornsby and Frisch,” McGraw added. “Neither had a particularly good play- ing year last season but both are young and have many more baseball left in them.” | | story,” YOSEMITES BEAT The Yosemite tossers last night de- feated the Apaches, 26 to 19.

HE same spunk that made “Buck” O’Brien, of Eastern High, the best defensive player in the last scho- lastic football race served to bring Eastern a 23-22 triumph over the Strayer’s Business college five yester- day in the Eastern gymnasium. With the score tied and less than a minute to play, O’Brien was fouled by “Bus” Freed and with victory depend- ing on the success of his free shot, O’Brien tossed the ball through the rim. O’Brien was playing in place of Capt. Hogarth, who was forced to watch the game because of a sore toe. Strayer’s was also without a star player.

Hornsby’s case is certain to live long in the memories of the ball players. If a star like the former manager of the Cardinals could not demand his price and receive it, then there is small chance that the rank and file of the ball players can con-~- tinue to make their petty demands and see them fulfilled. The club owners after a period of docile obeisance are again in con- trol of the situation. They have undermined the bellef of the in- vincibility of the stars of the game by the simple method of relieving them from YWuty and by mutual agreement of the magnates seeing these stars with their heavy salaries slip out of the pastime. Only by working in agreement could the magnates effect the trans- formation and that they have worked in perfect accord attested by the fact that Cobb, of Detroit; Speaker, of Cleveland: Collins, of Chicago; Hornsby, of St.. Louis; Sisler, of St. Louls, and McKechnie, of the Pirates, have either been released outright or relegated to the ranks minus the huge salaries and with their demands stifled by the firm action of the club owners TRIS SPEAKER DENIES CHARGES IN WRITING (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 to the club roster whom I know had run his race as a major league pitcher, “It has been a strain and trying ordeal for me, but there is real sate isfaction in knowing that my name is not connected with the case in any manner except by word of mouth of a veritable Judas. “I feel confident the day will come when Leonard, if he has a spark of manhood in him, will agree to appear before the commissioner of baseball and clear my name of the smirch he has placed thereon. I am absolutely guilt- less. and the evidence on file with Judge Landis will bear me out “In conclusion, I want to say that the testimony on file with the commission- er, together with the explanations given by both Wood and Cobb, proves beyond doubt there was no thought of wrong doing on the part of either man, and there is absolutely nothing to show the ball game was fixed.” Terminal Five Wins On Martin’s Basket Tom Martin’s side-court in the last tem seconds of play enabled the Washington Terminal R.

West came up the next morning and said the best he could get was 10 to 7. Detroit was the favorite. We decided to lay the money. In a little while, West came back to the hotel and said all he could get was $600 against $420, but that he could get more up at 5 to 2. We talked that over and decided not to bet at these odds.” Wood said he saw Cobb at the ball park both September 24 and 25, but had no conversation with him except after the game on September 25, when Cobb asked him, “How much money did you bet on this game today?” “IT asked him, Why,” Wood testified, “and he said, ‘Leonard asked.” Think- ing it was none of his business, I gave rs an anonymous and incorrect re- ply.” Wood said he never talked to Speaker about a bet on the game. “It was not exactly a practice,’ Wood declared, “but it was not uncommon for ball players to bet on a game, even in the middle of the season. I recall one instance when the whole Washing- ton team went broke—that is, they lost all the cash they had with them—on a ball game that I pitched and beat Wal- ter Johnson. They won it back the next day, when Bob Groom beat our club.” “Who did they bet on?” “On their own ball club.” Speaker testified before Landis that he had “no knowledge what- ever” of the transaction alleged by Leonard, and no such “under the grandstand” conversation as Leon- ard detailed. The former Cleveland manager said he learned last June or July that Leon- ard was trying to implicate him with the letters. “Mr. Johnson (president of the league) came to Cleveland,” Speaker said, “and told me that Leonard had some such letter from Wood. He asked me if I knew anything about it and I said no. Then I asked Wood about it. I had never heard of it before.” . Speaker said that he used his regu- lar line-up in the Detroit game of September 25, and that “Since'I had the management of the club (in Aug- ust, 1919), I always tried to win every ball game.” “I notice,” Speaker said, in looking over the box score, “that I made three hits in five times up; two of them three-baggers If I had known ' i ; ou ‘| smith, had been criticized before Leonard was released. He did promise, however, to say something “when I have gone into the matter more fully.” Any question dealing directly upon the charges brought against Cobb and Speaker he referred to Commissioner Landis. Detroit sport writers expressed no Surprise today at the disclosure ef the charges against Cobb and Speaker, de- Claring they had been aware that “Dutch” Leonard, former pitcher of the Detroit Americans, had admitted such allegations, and that last August, be- fore laying his case before American league officials and Commissioner Landis, he came to Detroit with photo- Static copies of correspondence | with Cobb. At that time, they declare, Leon- ard sought only reinstatement in major league baseball. The game between Cleveland and De- troit, upon which the charges against Cobb and Spueaker were based. was the last home game of the season, Sep- tember 25, 1919. Statistics published the following day showed that Cleve- land apparently was safely berthed in second place, while Detroit was fight- ing with New York for third-place hon- ors.. The standings showed: Won. Lost. Chicago 88 Cleveland the onl laver not offered opportunity to falter his batting average; that Tris Speaker was virtually presented with two triples, while Speaker reciprocated by permit- ting a triple for Bernie Boland, pitch- ing for Detroit. Cleveland, they pointed ‘out, was safely in second place and a defeat meant nothing to the Indians, while a victory for Detroit would help materi- ally in the fight for third place, all of which, they said, impressed the Detroit fans with the good-fellowship of the visiting team. Fred C. West, mentioned in the cor- respondence, Cobb and Leonard, was an usher and press-box attendant at Navigation field. The box: score of the September 25, 1919, game follows: Cleveland.

Roberts: Addresses Court. Owen J. Roberts addressed the court briefly at the conclusion of Cooke's fif- | teen-minute argument. The present | motion to quash, Roberts said, was| based on the contention that the dis- trict attorney was not in charge of the} prosecution, while a previous motion to have the indictment invalidated was | | based on the plea that the district at- | | torney was in the grand jury room and) | took part in the prosecution. | The indictment in the present con- | spiracy case, Roberts asserted, was re- | | turned like every other indictment in | | the regular way, The fact that the'| | Sovernment was given enlarged powers | under recent act of Congress to obtain | testimony from witnesses abroad did | | not mean that the defendants must un- | der the Constitution be given corele- | vant rights, Roberts declared, citing | authorities to support his contention. He also characterized the present mo- | tion as a dilatory motion, and said the) defense had cognizance of all the neces- | sary facts long ago to have made the’ motion at an earlier date. Pomerene said good reason existed for the appointment of special counsel, and added, “I assume it was in the minds of men that the Department of Justice should not be in charge.” George P. Hoover, of counsel for Sin- clair, concluded the argument. Con- gress had not the power, he asserted, to single out any Individual for special prosecution. “Due process of law means equality, and when you depart from equality you depart from due process of law,” he de- clared. “We say that Congress has exceeded its power when it singled us out for special prosecution.” ARMY sachet HO IN THE CAVE PROVES 10 BE fs TERN CARRIED BY AN OLD HAG Filmer BY I> WHEEL AN is eyisope 4 .
