New York, Feb. 7 (By A. P.).—Con- trol of the Wheeling & Lake Erie rail- way has passed from the Rockfeller interests to the New York Central, Baltimore & Ohio and “Nickel Plate” railroads, which announced today that they had each acquired abotit one- sixth interest in the three classes of | Wheeling stock. At the same time the! Baltimore & Ohio made known that it has increased its holdings of Western Maryland to 35 per cent of the total outstanding, practically giving it work- ing corftrol of that property. Barring disapproval of these pur- chases by the Interstate Commerce | Commission, this action by the three, large Eastern systems, apparently | working in unison, is believed in Wall street to have effectually killed the pro- posed fifth Eastern trunk line system proposed by L. F. Loree, an applica- tion for the formation of which is now pending before the I. C. C. Loree’s sys- tem, which has been strenuously op- posed by the other Eastern trunk lines, included the Wheeling & Lake Erie and Western Maryland roads as essential units. These purchases solve the mystery surrounding the recent sensational ad- vance in those stocks. They did not become known until after the close of the stock market, in which a further squeezing of the trapped “short” inter- est in Wheeling & Lake Erie common sent that stock from $80 to $95 share on a relatively light turnover. 2 as Bears Pay Big Premiums. “Bear” traders, unwilling to cover their commitments at current prices, were forced to pay the unprecedented premium of 7 per cent, or $700 a day a hundred shares, for the loan of stock to make delivery against short sales. Meanwhile, directors of the Wheeling & Lake Erie met here and announced that they had authorized the conver- sion into common of the prior lien and preferred stocks, subject to the ap- proval of the Interstate Commerce Com- mission and the Ohio public service commission. Counsel for the road will file application for such permission be- fore the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion in Washington tomorrow. No announcement was made, how- ever, as to the amount of additional stock to be authorized and the time when such conversion can be made. Inability to make such conversion, as provided in the articles of incorpora- tion of the railroad, has been partly responsible for the development of the “technical corner’ which has resulted in the loss of millions of dollars to “bear” traders. The New York Stock Exchange, which has been conducting an investigation into recent trading in both the com- mon and preferred stocks of the road, today again enlarged the scope of its inquiry by demanding daily, until fur- ther notice, the names of borrowers and lenders of the stock, in addition to the aggregate long and short positions of both firms and members at the close of each business day.

Nor will the Chinese leaders enter into any such agreement as Secretary Kellogg suggests, according to information received here, so long as foreign armed forces remain massed in disproportionate and threatening strength at Shanghai. In reply to Mr. Kellogg’s communica- it will be contended by the Chi- situation that provocative measures, such as the unexplained presence of foreign warships and marines in in- creasing numbers, constitute the only present danger to foreign lives and properties. There is: no intention of making Shanghai a battle ground in the zone of military operations, it is deciared, and the Chinese military leaders and other authorities will assume full re- sponsibility for the protection of foreigners unless outside, provocative elements such as the landing of foreign troops or the concentrating of foreign war forces for the apparent purpose of it ime possible for the regularly-organized military forces of China and the recog- nized police to maintain control of the situation. Two dangerous elements, from the Chinese standpoint, loom up as possi- bilities in connection with the Kellogg tionalists claim are matters of Chinese jurisdiction. Second, comes the ap- parent threat of concertefaforeign Au- tion which, it is contendea inevitably creates a corresponding tendency of all Chinese forces to unite against all foreigners. Secretary Kellogg said yesterday that he had consulted no one excepting ‘President Coolidge in connection with | his proposal. The Chinese apparently fear, however, that the plans for col- lateral if not concerted action by the powers are drawn up in Peking and that the State Department here may be following recommendations in which the Peking diplomatic corps has had a hand. It is noted, for example, that the phraseology used by Mr. Kellogg in the concluding paragraphs of his state- ment, “properly constituted and orderly negotiations” is identical with the phraseology used by the British in a recent communication to Eugene Chen, the Cantonese premier, relative to the British concession at Hankow. Furthermore, attention is called to the fact that Secretary Kellogg refers only to protecting Americans and for- eigners in the international settlement and proposes that a neutral zone be established for this particular area. The international settlement is known in vernacular at Shanghai as “the Brit- ish settlement” in view of the fact (CONTINUED ON PAGE 23, COLUMN 7.) REVOLT STRIKES LISBON: FIRES RAGING IN OPORTO Police of Portuguese — Join Mobs in Support of Military Rebellion. DICTATORSHIP ATTACKED (By the Associated Press.) The revolution in Portugal is spread- ing. This fact stood out clearly yester- day through a maze o* fragmentary and delayed dispatches, bearing evidence of the censor’s blue pencil. It became known through an Associ- ated Press dispatch from Lisbon, timed 2:5) p. m. saying that a movement in support of the Oporto revolt had broken out in the capital. Oporto, second city in the country in | point of population, was the starting | place of the insurrection, which began last Thursday with the avowed object of overthrowing’ President Carmona’s dictatorship and reestablishing a parlia- mentary form of government. The Oporto rebels, headed by Gen. Souza Diaz, are still holding out in the face of intense artillery fire and the hurried approach of government rein- forcements. Fires started in the city by exploding shells are spreading and the civilian populace has fled.

RED TROOPS MASS; CHANG CALLED HOME U. S. Note to Warring Fac- tions Approved by Official British Circles. Shanghai, Feb. 7 (By A. P.).—The forces of Marshal Sun Chuan-fang thrust the Cantonese army farther away from Shanghai today. They hurled it from the Cantonese advanced base in Chekiang province at Chuchow toward the border of Kiangsi province, some 200 miles from Shanghai. Information from a trustworthy for- eign source stated that Sun’s troops captured Chuchow with a sudden as- sault, driving out the Cantonese. The Cantonese shortage of ammuni- tion and the difficulties of transporta- tion, which it was known were hamper- ing them, bear out the reports of northern success, which, it is believed here, means the removal of the Can- tonese menace to Shanghai, for the present at least. Sun’s forces are said to have been commanded by Gen. Pai-Pao-Shan This disposes of the rumor of his be- trayal of Sun by going over to the Cantonese army. Fighting More Than Week. Fighting in this region has proceeded for more than a week. The Cantonese at first were successful, forcing Sun’‘s troops northward to Yenchow, where they dug in on the Tsientang river and awaited reinforcements. These came in large numbers from Hangchow and other northern Chekiang points. Mean- while, the Cantonese, whose army num- bered 30,000, also received additions to their rank. Pekin, Feb. 7 (By A.

The flag was hoisted following an air-combing attack. Brooks reported that as he left the scene troops of the conservative army of President Diaz were re-entering Chinandega without encountering op- position. , More than ten blocks of the town are smouldering ruins.

The assets were sold, and in their stead their approximate value in cash and liberty bonds were paid to Merton. Merton testified at the first trial that he paid John T.

House Votes $125,000,000 kor Mall and Buildings $100,000,000 for Government Structures ‘Throughout Country Added to Triangle Acquisition Bill— Program Increased to $250,000,000. By a vote of 293 to 83, the House yesterday passed the bill authorizing an appropriation of $25,000,000 for the ac- quisition of the so-called Mall triangle and $100,000,000 for government build- ings throughout the country. The Mall project already has been ap- proved by the Senate, but it was com- bined with the country-wide building program in the House and the bill now goes back to the Senate for concur- rence. The House by its action increased the $150,000,000 building program author- ized at the last session to $250,000,000, and raised the amount that may be expended in any one year to $35,000,000, of which $10,000,000 may be expended in the District The Mall project is a separate feature of the bill. Under this provision any part or all of the $25,000,000 authorization may be appro- priated at any time for the acquisition of property south of Pennsylvania ave- nue and betwee n Third and Fifteenth streets northwest not already owned by the government. This provision was the sole purpose of a bill sponsored by Senator Smoot, of Utah, and passed by the Senate. A similar bill was introduced in the); House by Representative Underhill, of Massachusetts. After Representative Reed, of New York, had introduced in his bill to add. $100,000,000 to the country-wide building authorization, Chairman Elliott, of the House public buildings and grounds committee, de- cided to combine it with the Smoot- Underhill bill. ° Coincident with the action of the ury Department, pursuing the §850,- 000,000 local building program, has en- gaged the firm of York & Sawyer, New York architects, to prepare plans for the Department of Commerce build- ing at Fifteenth and B streets north- west. Estimates for local buildings, to- gether with those outside of Washing- ton, are expected to be submitted to Congress by the Treasury in a few days. Whether it is planned to ask for any money under the $25,000,000 provision \ for the acquisition of outstanding Mall property at this session has not yet been definitely determined. It has been estimated by experts that only slightly more than half of the author- ized appropriation will be needed for this purpose. Representative McKeown, of Okla- homa, led the opposition to the bill in the’ House, contending with Repre- sentative Bankhead, of Alabama, and others that Congress should determine where the money is to be expended rather than leave it to the discretion of the Treasury Department. Chairman Elliott, Representative Lanham, of pa and Blanton, of Texas, with oth- ers, spoke for the measure. Despite the opposition, mostly con- Washington. §& MAN PLEADS GUILTY TO SELLING OF DRUGS Capture of Pair in Capital Leads to Roundup in New York City. The arrest of an actor and an actresg near the Capitol here yesterday had a terrific echo in the underworld of New York, and last night the authorities in that city believed that one of the largest narcotic rings in history had been smashed. A general round-up followed the ar- rest here of Jacob Solomon, alias Jack Rose, and Miss Andree Dubois, and, ace cording to an Associated Press dispatch last night, twelve persons have beer placed under arrest. Ralph Oyler, head of the narcotic bue reau in New York, declared that the narcotic ring had flooded the country with drugs, sending the stuff to ad- dicts or peddlers in other cities either by mail or by express. Solomon, known in New York night club circles as “Rose,’”” was one of the leaders of the alleged ring, Chief Oyler said. The other leader, he said, was Peppy Dellas, said to be a brother of “Little Augie,” reputed head of &@ notorious East Side gang. Others arrested in the roundup were as follows: Moses Solomon, brother of Jack; Anna Wilson, actress, arrested in Moses’ apartment; James Kansas, prize-fight promoter; Samuel Walker, an entertain- er; Teddy Kantor, cloakroom conces- sionaire in a night club; Leo S. Mushe- lin, John Waide, Thomas Ryan and Genero Delandi. Held in $1,000 Bail. Delandi, who was arrested outside the Raymond street jail in Brooklyn, has a long criminal record, Chief Oyler said. He was charged with, violation - of the Harrison narcotic act an eld in $10,000 bail. The men arrested in New York will be charged with violation of the Har- rison act today, Oyler said. Oyier said that the ring did very little business in New York, selling only to trusted friends. The arrests were the climax to several weeks of intensive work by under cover narcotic agents, who got in touch with mem- bers of the alleged ring by posing as narcotic peddlers from other cities. Cleverly tricked into coming to this city with a large supply of narcotics, Solomon, 35 years old, an actor, of New York city, was arrested by narcotic agents in front of the Capitol Park hotel as he attempted, police say, to sell $2,000 worth of morphine yesterday. Miss Dubois, 25 years old, an attractive and fashionably gowned New York ac- tress, was found in Solomon's room in the hotel. Solomon pleaded guilty to charges of violating the Harrison narcotic law and possession of smoking opium when ar- raigned before United States Commis- sioner Needham C. Turnage and was held in $10,000 bail for grand jury action. Miss Dubois pleaded not guilty to a charge of possession of smoking opium and was held in 61,000 bond for further hearing. Solomon sub- stantiated her plea, declaring she knew nothing of the opium found in the hotel room. ° Trap Is Carefuly Laid. Miss Dubois was released last’ night in $1,000 bond, furnished by Milton Kronheim, local bondsman. Mr. Kron- heim afterward left for New York to arrange bond for Solomon. ' Narcotic agents under the direction of Ralph H. Oyler, of the New York division, aided by Detectives Charles Warfield and Robert Saunders, of polic headquarters, laid the trap for the car ture of Solomon. An informer municated with Solomon in New York city, and made a request to purchase @ quantity of morphine, asking the al- leged peddler to bring it to this city. Later the informer again communi- cated and increased the order, asking that it be delivered in Roanoke, Va. Solomon refused and the meeting place was set.

There were 8,195 arrests, as compired with 7,495 in December. This total was fifteen more arrests than in January, 1926, the first of a series of months in which the activities of the police in making arrests alarmed the commissioners and caused a review of police activities. Arrests for felonies numberd 459 last month, as compared with 288 in De- cember and 283 a year ago. The in- crease was largely accounted for in 119 arrests for housebreaking, as against The was reflected 53 the preceding January and 59 for robbery, as compared with 17.

Ballou, super- intendent of schools, and his associates, at its meeting in the Sixth Presby- terian church, Kennedy and Sixteenth streets, last night. A resolution also was adopted urging the retention of the appropriation for 74 additional teachers. It will be “dis- astrous” to the school system if pro- vision isn’t made for more teachers, it was stated. Robert L. Haycock, an as- sistant superintendent of schools, upon request stated that the more efficient the school system became the more teachers it would require. The best system of instruction justifies specialization in subject mat- ter, and if “we have built up an effi- cient school system we feel justified in our demands. However, if our patrons feel that the system is not efficient, Says Head. MRS. RAFTER SPEAKS TO KENILWORTH GROUP SS eee Upholds Appearance of Her-| self and Mrs. Bannerman Before House Group. Denial that the District of Calumbia Congress of Parent-Teacher Associa- tions was in any way responsible for the defeat of the item in the District bill which would have provided 74 ad- ditional school teachers, was made last night by Mrs. Giles Scott Rafter, presi- dent ofethe congress, in an address be- fore the Kenilworth Citizens associa- tion in the Kenilworth school. Characterizing as “malicious and false’ reports that the appearance of herself and Mrs. William T. Banner- man before the House appropriations committee while the bill was under consideration, was responsible for the defeat of the measure, Mrs. Rafter add- ed that the organization headed by her has and always will continue to seek the best possible facilities for the pub- lic schools. Mrs. Bannerman is legisla- tive chairman of the Parent-Teacher Associations in this city. Mrs. Rafter pointed out, however, that reasonable economy should be practiced in the schools. The associa- tion adopted resolutions requesting the widening of Kerilworth avenue from the Benning bridge and Benning road to Fifteenth and H streets northeast. John Driggers, president of the asso- ciation, presided. Commercial Airport Near Benning Urged by Citizens Congress will be petitioned by two citizens’ associations of the Capital to give its sanction to the location of a commercial air port near Benning,: it was stated yesterday by the presidents of the Benning Citizens association and the Kenilworth Citizens association, who are preparing a bill to be present- ed in the near future. Aeronautical associations, civic or- ganizations and private individuals in- terested in the establishment of such an air port at Benning, are being asked to give their approval to this measure, John S8. Driggers, president of the Kenilworth Citizens association, stated. Mr. Driggers has been one of the most enthusiastic workers for the proposed port, and is one of those aiding in the framing of the bill to be presented to Congress. Several hundred airplanes could be accommodated at the Benning field, ad- vocates of this plan point out. George H. James, president of the Benning Citizens association, said that the field comprises 186 acres, virtually flat, and entirely suited to the requirements of commercial aviation. Other sites sug- gested for commercial air ports, offi- cials of the citizens’ associations de- clare, are partly under water and would require large expenditures before be- ing made suitable for airplanes. The Benning field, they contended, might be made ready for use in 60 days, at half the expense, whereas other sec- tions represents a five-year problem. In addition to their demand for the members of the Anacostia road, which in its present graveled state, delays police and fire protection to residents of the com- munity, they said. The District com- missioners will be petitioned to remedy this situation. Takoma Park Association Is Addressed by Yaden Citywide rather than a local stand- point should be the aim of both the Federation of Citizens Associations and the local associations, in their civic activities, James G. Yaden, president of the federation, last night told the Takoma Park Citizens association of the District. The association met at the Takoma library. President Yaden declared that the zoning:law is far from perfect and re- quires changes. He expressed the hope that Congress will provide an assembly hall for the Takoma Park school next year so that the association will have a place to meet. The association discussed plans for the George Washington’s birthday cele- bration when they will gather with other organizations for joint patriotic exercises and a dance. The association urged the retention of Lieut. Col. Bell as engineer commissioner of the Dis- trict.

CUT OF 74 TEACHERS BLAMED BY OFFICIALS Bannerman, in Letter, Says School Heads Caused Elimination of Item. The action of the House of Repre- sentatives in eliminating an item in the 1928 appropriation bill providing for 74 additional school teachers was based entirely on the testimony of school officials, Mrs. W. T. Bannerman, of the Congress of Parent-Teachers As- sociations, declared yesterday in a let- public schools. ‘ School officials and newspapers, Mrs. the elimination of the item, but the truth is, she added, that the facts that caused the elimination were known to the House committee on appropria- tions before she and Mrs. Giles Scott Rafter testified. Mrs. Bannerman outlined the history of the fight for the 74/additional teach- ers and referred the teachers to reports in the Congressional Record. Manor Park Reindorses Reaffirming their 1 indorsement of William McK. Clayion for counsel of the new public utilities com- mission, members of the Manor Park Citizens association, meeting last night in the Whittier school, declared Clay- ton qualified under the President's own interpretation of the law in having lit- tle or no “tractual relations” with utili- ties companies. John D. Smoot told the members that chase street car tokens. The association passed a resolution opposing recogni- tion of the Board of Trade as “a clear- ing house on street improvements,” re- ferring to action taken at the last meet- ing of the board. A further resolution asked the commissioners to provide sidewalks on Third, Fourth, Sheridan, Rittenhouse and Quackenbos streets. It was decided to direct letters to in- committee on appropriations, thanking them for inclusion of Manor Park projects in the appropriations bill and of the logtsiation. Devonshire Body Opposed By Suburban Association Protesting against recognition of the recently organized Devonshire Downs Citizens association by the Federation of Citizens Associations, Northwest Suburban association come either amalgamated or cease to function as an officially accrdited sep- arate body.

JURY DEMANDS TRIAL OVER U. S. SPEAKEASY New York, Feb. 7 (By A. P.).—De- mand for a grand jury investigation of the Bridge Whist club, “government speakeasy,” and criminal prosecution of prohibition officials responsible for its operation are contained in a resolution voted by the January Federal grand jury and made public today. The resolution was handed to Fed- eral Judge Winslow, and copies were forwarded to Emory R. Buckner, United States district attorney, and the fore- man of the succeeding grand jury. The resolution expresses full concur- rence in the demands ‘of Representa- tive LaGuardia (Republican), New York, and calls upon the district at- torney to proceed with the investiga- tion. Ralph W. Bickle, who described him- self as a prohibition investigator and secret agent for A. Bruce Bielaski, dis- trict “‘under cover” prohibition chief, operated the Bridge Whist club which was padlocked after he sold his lease. In a suit Bielaski testified he rented the place for operation of a speakeasy, that the rent was paid by the govern- ment and that government funds were used “in part’ to buy liquor. Emperor and Empress Absent. Neither the emperor nor empress ac- | companied the funeral train. As in | the processjon, Prince Chichibu repre- | sented the throne in the journey to the |tomb.

These huge oval mounds mark the graves of all of Japan's em- perors and no human foot ever is sup- posed to rest upon the sacred earth. The construction of Yoshihito’s tu- mulus will require more than a year and only consecrated workmen will be employed. During the building of the mound all the consecrated workmen will be garbed in ceremonial white flowing garments with specially made sandals. As no human foot must touch the earth above the emperor, a cere- mony is held whereby it is pretended that the white-robed workers are trans- formed by the Shinto priests into birds which fly with earth and sand to com- plete the huge mound. When the tumulus is finished it is covered with snow-white sand and for- ever after imperial guards of honor are present night ‘and day to see that the resting place of the son of heaven is not desecrated by human touch. 7 Armed Farmers Are Blocking Burial Chicago, Feb. 7 (By A. P.).—Seven armed farmers were standing guard in Worth township, southwest of Chicago. today to prevent the burial of a negro in a plot of ground there and which they believe would be the start of a cemetery for negroes. The farmers, all property owners, were said to have sought legal advice and to have decided to act themselves to prevent the establishment of such a burial ground in their neighborhood. They said they were prepared to stand guard as long as necessary, although there were no ir~*‘cations today when if at all, buria, -might be attempted. -~_ Borticvitural Society to Elect.

P.).—The dream of fascist architects to con- vert modern Rome into a rival of New York was shattered by Premier Mussolini today with the announce- ment that the city must not tend in aspect or activity to become an industrial capital. The new imperial Rome, the duce today told directors of the fascist federation of the Roman province, must become the center of an effi- client and intensive agricultural life and flourishing artisanry but must remain untainted by industrialism. The barren region surrounding the city which has been uncultivated for centuries must become the gar- den, not only of Rome, but of tlie entire nation, he said. Mussolint’s announcement comes after the elapsing of one year of the five years which, in accordance with the premier’s order of January 1, 1926, Rome must be _ transformed into a great imperial capital com- parable with that of the Emperor Augustus. In 1926 extensive work was done in restoring ancient Roman ruins, in beautifying the crumbling medieval sections of the city and traffic in organizing a system. eae “KIDNAPED” GIRL, 11, RETURNED AFTER WEEK Former Housekeeper Says Child Asked to Go With Her From Chicago. Chicago, Feb. 7 (By A. P.).—Eleven- year-old Brunhilda Koellner, for whom a nation-wide search was started by her father, Frank Koellner, after she disappeared from school last Monday, was returned to Chicago early today by Lillian Hochstrasser. who has been chargéd with kidnaping the child. Miss Hochstrasser told Arthur H. Fink, an attorney to whom she turned over the child, that the girl voluntarily accompanied her to Denver. Miss Hochstrasser, recently discharged as nurse for Brunhilda, said that when she went to school to bid the girl good-by, Brunhilda cried and pleaded to be taken away. The child, Miss Hochstrasser said, told her a story of neglect by her father after the nurse left the Koellner home. While relating her story to the attor- ney, Miss Hochstrasser began crying, whereupon the girl sought to comfort her. “Don't cry. Papa won’t be mad,” she said. “T'll tell him I wanted to go with you.

He added that he had no knowledge that the President has ever referred to the matter in any way, but that he was “taking it for granted” as a working Republican, “who is both a personal friend and political supporter of the President.’’ ~ Dr. Butler disposed of the question‘ of what constitutes two terms by as- serting “that the President has served two terms, who has twice taken the oath of office.”” He said it is “simply looking for unnecessary and fatal trou- ble to raise the third term issue,”’ add- ing, “the Republican party is going to have a hard enough time in 1928 without inviting certain defeat,” through injecting the subject into the campaign. No candidate on any ticket can be elected President next year without taking a stand against prohibition, Dr. Butler declared. | Of Virginia Power Co. Richmond, Va., Feb. 7 (By A. P.).— Luke C.

COOLIDGE’ S ATTITUDE “Tf CENTER UF DEBATE | House Tabhe Up. eaaiee To- morrow With Vote Prob- able went Week. (By the Associated Press.) | With managers of the McNary- | Haugen bill driving for a vote, farm re- | lief debate got under way in earnest in | the Senate yesterday, while house lead- erg decided to defer consideration of the measure until tomorrow. Professing to feel that they have vic- tory in hand, sponsors of the bill plan to force a vote in the Senate by the end of the week, by use, if necessary, of the cloture rule, which would limit de- bate and for which 68 senators already have signed the necessary petition. House managers feel more time will be required there and a vote probably will not be reached until next week. Under revised plans the bill will be called up in the House tomorrow with general debate expected to continue the remainder of the week. Chances of its passage by the Senate were enhanced materially, its sponsors declared, when a compromise was reached between them and the South- ern group, led by Senator Harrison, Democrat, of Mississipppi, providing for a deferment of the equalization fee against cotton for two years and adoption in its stead of the Bledsoe cotton insurance plan. Debate Around Coolidge. Debate in the Senate centered mainly around whether President Coolidge would sign the McNary-Haugen bill if passed. Senator Fess (Republican), Ohio, an opponent of the bill, predict- ed a veto, while Senator Gooding (Re- publican), Idaho, a supporter, declared the President would sign it and said managers of the measure so under- stood. Asserting he never had consulted with any one about the President’s at- titude, Senator Fess predicted he would veto the bill because of the provision permitting farm organizations to recommend nominees to be appointed by him to the proposed farm board. “The President could not sign. the bill and maintain his self-respect by permitting such limitation to his power of appointment,” he added. Senator Robinson, the Democratic leader, declared a precedent had been set by enactment of the transportation act of 1920 allowing railroud organiza- tions to submit nominations for mem- bership on the railroad labor board. Insisting it was not the same prin-| | ciple, Senator Fess served notice he) would offer an amendment to prevent) selection of the board by “propagandists epresenting farm agencies.” Curtis Offers Substitute. } ‘I say regardless of whatever Con- gress does this bill in its present form cannot become law,” he added. “It does not deal with the agricultural problem in a fundamental way.” Senator Curtis, the Republican leader, offered the Curtis-Crisp $250,000,000 farm surplus bill as a complete sub- stitute for the McNary-Haugen measure. He said it got around the equalization fee provision of the McNary-Haugen bill which he declared was unconstitu- tional and would meet objection from the producers. “My substitute follows the old plan of handling surpluses,”’ Mr. Curtis con- tinued. “We will have corporations or- ganized to take care of the surplus. There are seldom more than two or three years of surpluses which are fol- lowed by shortages. We will hold the surpluses for the short years and pro- tect not only the producers, but the consumers.” : Senator Sheppard (Democrat), Texas, who voted against the McNary-Haugen bill at the last session, told the Senate yesterday that he had changed his po- sition, and would now support the measure, as he believed it had the wide support of farmers and was entitled to a trial. The main opposition to the bill, de- clared Senator Caraway (Democrat), Arkansas, is coming from senators from agricultural States, who, he said, agreed neither with the friends of the farmers nor with their enemies. He suggested a Senate investigation into “the mental processes of senators of that type.” U. S. Commerce Chamber Assails Aid Bill Etforts The United States Chamber of Com. merce, in a statement outlining its views of pending legislation, charged yesterday that efforts are being made in Congress to pass the McNary-Hau- gen bill “regardless of its merits and in consequence of bargains.” Passage of the bill, according President John W. O'Leary, would be sure to “result disastrously for agri- culture itself and thus bring great detriment to all. branches of industry and commerce.” While opposing the McNary-Haugen bill, O’Leary urged enactment of the McFadden-Pepper bill enlarging the power of national banks and extending the charters of Federal Reserve Banks. Charging that “trading is going on and bargains being made in Congress,” O’Leary declared the time has passed when important measures would be acted on through a policy of “anything to get the vote.” to Professor Sends Cent To Cut National Debt Desirous of reducing the national debt, a Massachusetts college professor has donated one copper cent to the United States government. The penny was received yesterday by Director Lord. of the budget bureau, who declined to Say whether he would apply it toward the reduction of the debt. The director’ announced over the radio at a busines meeting of the gov- ernment last week that the national debt at its peak in August 31, 1919, was $26,596,701,648.01. The one cent balance disappeared the next day. In a letter accompanying the contribution the pro- fessor said, “If I could do the same for the four preceding decimal figures I should wish to do so.” Lord withheld the name of the professor.

The measure authorizes a fund in the veterans’ bureau of $25,000,000, from which the loans would be made. They would bear 6 per cent interest. | This rate of interest formed the vehicle of the brief discussion. Rep- resentative Blanton, of Texas, lamented the fact that it was necessary to pass the bill under a suspension of the rules by which no amendments from the floor could be offered. He opposed the § per cent interest rate, he said, point- ing out that he had introduced a Dill providing for 4 per cent interest and that there were other measures which would have made the rate 2 per cent. The Texan said the government could obtain a plentiful supply of money at 3% per cent and there was no warrant in charging a greater rate to the “de- fenders of civilization.” Foreign gov- ernments are paying this country only 1% per cent on their war loans, he declared. Representative Schaefer, of Wisconsin. also assailed the 6 per cent rate. Under a provision of the bill the Treasury would lend the $25,000,000 to the veterans’ bureau. INDUSTRIAL HOME REMOVAL IS SOUGHT Overlapping District and Navy Property Would Be Ex- changed Under Bill. Removal of the Industrial home, now near the Naval observatory, is directed in-a bill passed by the House yesterday. The bill, sponsored by Representative Magee, of Pennsylvania, is primarily de- signed to permit the Navy Department and District government to swap over- lapping property so as to make their holdings intact. It then provides that the District may either sell its tract or, if it is uti- lized, it must be devoted to playgrounds and parks. If it is sold, one half of the proceeds from the part acquired from the Navy Department accrues to the department and the other half, to- gether with all of the proceeds from the property now owned by the District, shall apply to the purchase of a new) site and erection of a new building for the Industrial home. Real estate interests for several years have wanted the home removed because it does not fit in with the sur- rounding property, and because it Is retarding the development of the sec- tion. A similar bill faile@ of passage in the last Congress. J. A. Wilner Heads Southern B’nai B’rith Joseph A.

IN TO CLERGY / CITES GA New York, Feb. 7 (By A. P.).— Protestants were urged today to emu- late their Catholic brethren and bare their souls in the confessional rather than in the office of a psychoanalyst, by the Rev. Harry Emerson Fosdick, pastor of the Park Avenue Baptist church, commonly Known as the Rocke- feller church. Speaking before more than _ 1,000 ministers and laymen at the annual luncheon of the Greater New York Fed- eration of Churches, Dr. Fosdick said that “Roman Catholics have built up an amazing experience about what goes on in the individual.” He explained that a Catholic priest can gain from individuals in the confessional infor- mation that will be valuable to him in influencing other individuals for good. | “We Protestants,” he continued, “are | losing more than we have any busi- |ness to lose by not coming in closer |} contact with the individual.”’ Where a Catholic would take his mental troubles to his priest the Pro- testant would go to a psychoanalyst or like specialist and the church would gain nothing in experience, he said. Dr. Fosdick urged that Protestants follow the example of Catholics not only in returning to the confessional, but also in greater stressing the beauty of religious service. He also advocated a “renaissance of evangelistic preaching,” saying that old style evangelism has been “thrown out the back door’ by modern Protestant Christians. “T am not afraid,” he said, ‘“‘to return to things Protestants threw away.” DOCTOR SHOT DOWN AFTER REFUSING CALL Five Arrested at Wake of Woman After St. Louis Physician Is Slain. St. Louis, Feb. 7 (By A. P.).—Revenge because Dr. August H. Sante, 61, had declined to respond to a night call to attend a woman who died the next day was believed by police today to have been the motive for the slaying of the physician who was shot fourteen times in his office at his residence early yes- terday. Police held five suspects, four of them alleged gangsters, whom they ar- rested- at the wake for the mother of one. Officers were told the son had threatened to kill Dr. Sante. Shortly after midnight, the bereaved son and two other young men were reported to have left the undertaking establish- ment and returned 45 minutes later. it was during this period that Dr. Sante was killed. In recent years the physician tried to avoid making night calls. had ‘Underworld Avengers _ Split Victim’s Tongue | New York, Feb. 7 (By A. P.).—The body of a man believed by police to have been the victim of underworld vengeance and who apparently was forced to strangle himself to death after his tongue was slit and he was sewn up in two coffee sacks, was found in East Eighth street today. Investigation showed that the man had been beaten before death—one eye was blackened—but the only wound was in the tongue, which had been lit to the root. This mutilation, po- saic, is the accepted underworld method of punishing those who have used their tongues to tell taies. and his necktie that of a Detroit firm. 1S Chaliapin Concert Funds Are Missing Louisville, Ky., Feb. 7 (By A. P.).— The unexplained absence of C. G. Pritz- ker, Louisville promoter, and his failure to pay the Chaliapin Opera’company a guarantee of $6,500 called for in its contract, resulted im the cancellation of the appearance of the company in “The Barber of Seville” here tonight. S. N. Kournakoff, manager of the company headed by the famous Feodor Chaliapin as a representative of the Universal Artists Co., of New York, said the opera could not be presented. Belmont Bossung, night chief of po- lice, said he had been notified that Pritzker had “absconded”’ with ticket sale receipts. 2,000 Padlocks Placed In Yellowley’s Region Chicago, Feb. 7 (By A. P.).—Nearly 2,000 places where the prohibition law was being violated have been closed in his district in the last fifteen months, E. C. Yellowley, head of liquor enforce- ment in Illinois, Indiana and Wis- consin, told a conference of prohibi- tion agents today. Of the places closed, numbering 1,700 more than half, 1,175, were in Chicago. Mr. Yellowley said that he expected to take action against 200 .violators in the district within 30 days. Consumers’ Names Demanded for Wine New York, Feb. 7 (By A. P.).—Names and addresses of ultimate consumers must hereafter be furnished by re- ligious bodies desiring sacramental wine for distribution to members, Maj. Chester P. Mills, prohibition adminis- trator for this district, announced to- day. That the flow of sacramental wine has been decreasing here was pointed out by Maj. Mills. During the last ten months of last year 510,894 gallons were withdrawn from government ware- houses in this district, as against 2,850,576 gallons for the corresponding period in 1925. Man Reported Slain By Fellow Worker Clarksburg, W. Va., Feb. 47.—Robert Kercheval, 30 years old, oil well driller of Janelew, was shot to death by Homer C.

On May 1, 1917, it was announced that approximately 114,500 shares of the prior lien stock had been sold to the Rockefeller interests. Inasmuch as no dividends have been paid on any of the stock issues of the company, making an accumulation of over 70 per cent on the prior lien stock, voting control of the road rested with that issue until such arrears were cleared up. A. H. Harris, vice president of the New York Central, announced that his road acquired “over 95,000 shares” of the Wheeling stocks» A similar an- nouncement was made by M. J. Van Sweringen in behalf of the “Nickel Plate.”” George M. Shriver, senior vice president of the Baltimore & Ohio Rail- road, stated his road had acquired “about one-sixth interest,” or virtually the same amount, of Wheeling issues. All executives made it clear that the stocks were accumulated before the recent sensational advance began, in- dicating that the latter was due to public speculation and the urgent re- treat of a “short” interest built up on the theory that the market valuations were out of all proportions to the road’s earning power. Also Buys Western Maryland. Mr. Shriver also announced that the Baltimore &' Ohio had acquired about 144,000 preferred shares of the Western Maryland, formerly held by the Rocke- feller interests, which, with the common shares purchased in the market some time ago, gave his company something) over 35 per cént of the outstanding) stocks of the Western Maryland with which the Baltimore & Ohio has a large interchange of traffic.

Spectacular advances have taken place in the common and second pre-. ferred stocks listed on the New York | Stock Exchange in the last few weeks, | the former rising from a low of 13% | last month to a high of 44% today, and the latter from a low of 23 to a| high of 42%. The second preferred | stock is convertible into the common | par for par, and the Bankers Trust Co., | as transfer agent, states it is in a posi- tion to make such conversion but will await instructions from the New York Stock Exchange before actually taking such action. Practically all of the aythorized com- mon is outstanding, so that a situation analogous to the Wheeling & Lake Erie might develop unless early action is | taken to make more of the common avaliable. L. F. Loree’s holdings in the Wheel- ing & Lake Erie and Western Mary- land railroads is not definitely Known, but he recently was credited with the statement that he had not been a re- cent buyer of the two stocks in the open market.

Therefore, they de- cided to effect the coup at 4 a. m. on Februasy ¢, as two of the ministers still remained in Oporto, and this plan was carried out.

C. Approval Held Likely. (By the Associated Press.) While no official intimation was forthcoming in advance of formal ac- tion, persons familiar with Interstate Commerce Commission policy on rail- road financing were inclined to con- sider today that the Wheeling & Lake Erie railroad would have little diffi- culty in obtaining permission to in- crease its outstanding issue of com- mon stock. The railroad’s application for au- thority to take such a step, reported | to be in the hands of counsel now en route for Washington, has yet to be. scanned by the members of the com- mission’s finance division. But the ap- | plication’s status is reported to be) similar in many respects to those af- | fecting issues of securities of other railroads which are being made almost | daily with the routine approval of the | commission. C. and O. Asks Permission President W. J. Harahan of the Chesa- | peake & Ohio Railway announced to- | night that the board of directors of the road had directed the filing of petitions with the Interstate Commerce Commission for permission to acquire | stock control of the Erie Railroad and | the Pere Marquette Railway and for | authority to sell $59,502,400 of the com- pany’s common stock at par. His an- 'nouncement followed a meeting of the | Chesapeake & Ohio board of directors here today. | He said that in porsuance of recom- mendations by a special committee of the board, the Chesapeake & Ohio Co has already acquired in the open market substantial holdings in the Erie and in | the Pere Marquette. It has also secured | from O. P. and M. J. Van Sweringen options on additional holdings of Erie | | which, when exercised, | Chesapeake & Ohio substantial will give the | stock control of the Erie. Mr. Harahan said the Chesapeake & Ohio has also acquired options from the | Nickel Plate for its interests in Pere Marquette, the option price at the) time being fixed with John J. Bernet, then president of Nickel Plate. Van) Sweringens, he said, have optioned their holdings of Pere Marquette at the same price. The announcement was believed here to forecast the Chesapeake & Ohio as | the proposed holding company for the | projected Van Sweringen unification of | Nickel Plate, Erie, Pere Marquette, C. and O. and Hocking Valley.

To apply to British courts in China Chinese civil and commercial codes, apart from procedure codes and those affecting personal status. and then only when these codes are en- forced That British courts will not be abolished, and British sub- throughout China. is, jects shall not be subjected to Chinese law, and British courts will not adopt Chinese pro- cedure. 1. His majesty’s government will consider the application to British courts of a Chinese penal code whenever it is applied to Chinese courts. That is, the matter will be considered, but no promise is given that the code will be adopted; and in any event, British courts will maintained. 5. The British government is prepared to be enter into arrangements to ‘“‘modify the munici- pal administrations of the British concessions;”’ but no suggestion is made for abandoning these concessions. 6. The British government is prepared to accept the principle that British missionaries shall not have the right to purchase land in the interior, and that Chinese converts should look to Chinese law for protection. 7. The British government is prepared to make British subjects in China pay equal taxes with the Chinese. : It posals, that. both governments in China should look with renewed anxiety upon the massing of British forces at Shanghai. The hope of concessions from Great is little wonder, in view of these pro- obtaining genuine Britain, paving the way to complete Chinese sovereignty, is evidently vain. Therefore, as Foreign Minister Chen plainly gives warning, “it is to be feared that the disablement of British trade and commerce may have to con- tinue.” Apparently Secretary Kellogg cherished the hope that his note to the rival governments of China would bring out an engagement on their part to exclude the foreign settlement at Shanghai from the zone of hostilities. But in view of the disappointing character of the British ‘‘concessions’’ and the announcement that British forces would not be diverted from Shanghai, there is little prospect that either government in China will agree to safeguard -the foreign settlement. They are likely to reply that the massing of foreign forces is provocative of the war spirit and that the presence of those forces makes it impossible for. the Chinese to guarantee the safety of the settlement. The line that should distinguish independent action by the United States and action,in con- } cert with “the powers” in dealing with China {| is very narrow, and is almost obliterated by _ = the remarkable assembly of American forces ie oe be used only in the last extremity for the res- cue of Americans under attack, would be most wholesome at this time, both here and in China. Many Americans are apprehensive that the United States will become involved in a quarrel between the powers and the Chinese. So far as outward appearances go, the two Chinese governments and the Chinese people are very apt to regard all the warships assembled at Shanghai, without regard to their flags, as a threat by the combined powers, to be employed in preventing the Chinese people from achiey- ing their independence. The United States is not making any such threat, and has no sym- pathy with such a threat. The sooner the real attitude of the United States is made known in China the better. M'NARY-HAUGEN MENDACITY. Some of the propagandists working for the McNary-Haugen bill have been industriously spreading the report that President Coolidge is not opposed to the bill. The impression sought to be conveyed is that while Mr. Cool- idge is opposed to price-fixing, he is reconciled to the enactment of the McNary-Haugen bill, partly because it has been modified and partly because he is convinced that it will pass both houses and that it would be politically unwise not to approve it. The suggestion is volun- teered that Mr. Coolidge can not be expected to announce a change of heart, but that Re- publican members of Congress may rest as- sured that in supporting the bill they will not run counter to the wishes of their party leader. Obviously these reports are circulated for the purpose of making votes for the vicious McNary-Haugen bill among weak-kneed mem- bers of Congress who are afraid of the ‘“‘farm vote,”’ and who are on the point of sacrificing the remainder of the public for the sake of currying favor with “agriculture.’’ If these wobbling congressmen can be assured that President Coolidge will sign the McNary- Haugen bill they will vote for it, because they could then meet the protests of consumers by declaring that it was “an administration measure.’’ Who: can point to anything showing that President Coolidge has changed position on the McNary-Haugen bill? It is essentially a price-fixing plan, and he is opposed to price- fixing on the ground that it would hurt the farmer instead of helping him. His last utter- ance to that effect was plain and emphatic. He is not in the habit of changing his position on fundamentals. There is every reason to assume that if the McNary-Haugen bill should be presented to the President he would veto it. In that case, where would the wobbling Re- publican congressmen find themselves? Would they have the nerve to array themselves against their party leader and try to pass the bill over his veto? The bill can not command a two-thirds vote. A veto would kill it. The resentment of consumers against this proposed outrage is rapidly rising, not only in the East but in the middle West itself. Many regions described as agricultural are opposed to the McNary-Haugen bill. The industrial regions are all opposed toit. It strikes a blow at the rights of more than two-thirds of the American people by proposing to increase their cost of living. If there were no question of price-fixing at all, the McNary-Haugen bill would deserve the veto of the President and would no doubt re- ceive it on account of the attempt to compel him to appoint to office individuals selected by class organizations. The executive appoint- ing power is directly attacked by this bill. A vast bureaucracy is set up, appointed and con- trolled by a class of citizens and not by thé government of the United States. The Presi- dent and Congress are to be mere agents of the real government. This brazen scheme to rob the majority of Americans for the benefit of the minority is put forth in the name of American agriculture. It is an insult to American farmers to at- tribute to them this plan to rob the American people. A scheme which the farmers would not approve, and about which they know prac- tically nothing, is put forth in their name, and is now thrust upon Congress with threats of reprisal if it is not enacted. The attempt to make it appear that Presi- dent Coolidge has been terrorized into a posi- tion where he is disposed to accept this meas- ure is an example of the mendacity which has been used in support of the bill ever since it was first proposed. Every member of Congress who has regard for the principle of a square deal to all citizens will vote against the infamous McNary-Haugen bill. A POSSIBLE COAL EMERGENCY, Chairman Parker of the House commerce committee will make another attempt to ob- tain action by the House on a measure de- signed ‘‘to protect the government and the public from shortages of coal.’’ During the last session of the House a number of bills to this end were introduced, but no action was taken on any of them. Early in December, however, Mr. Parker prepared and introduced a bill which provided for a survey of the situ- ation and required operators whose products enter interstate commerce to file with the bu- reau of mines “annual, monthly, or special reports giving such facts’’ concerning produc- tion, wages, and similar information, ‘‘as the bureau may require;’’ this information to be filed for the purpose of enabling the President ‘‘whenever in his opinion by reason of a lock- out or strike, or the possibility of a strike or ‘lockout resulting in a substantial decrease in production of coal, an emergency exists,”’ to proclaim such emergency. And to meet and cope with the emergency existing the pro- posed legislation would authorize the Inter- state Commerce Commission to take the neces- sary steps to prevent the public from ‘‘being held up, or shaken down” by the operators, wholesalers, or dealers. But the bill was killed by the committee to which it was referred, and now Mr. Parker will try again. However, there are signs of very strenuous opposition on the part of the operators. Mr. Kendall, member of Congress from the Twenty-fourth district of Pennsyl- vania, in a letter to The Post printed two i he Abe! i country will have a full supply of soft coal no matter how long a suspension of produc- tion in the union mines may last. Following the announcement last Saturday | that Mr. Parker will make another attempt to ‘secure legislation with the one object of pre- venting distress in the event of a shortage, such as has existed several times in the past ten years, Mr. Wyant, another representative from Pennsylvania, comes forward with a declaration that there is no emergency, that there will not be one, and that legislation is unnecessary. ‘In fact,’’ says Mr. Wyant, “only through legislation could an emergency be created.”’ On the other hand, the consumer, who has met those emergencies in the past; who has paid as much as $20 a ton for that “ten shilling coal,’’ will have difficulty in under- standing why the statesmen from the Pennsy!l- vania coal regions are so emphatic in pro- testing against giving the President the power to meet an emergency in the event that the condition should confront the «country. Are they not protesting rather too much? MUTILATION OF TREES. Twenty-three more shade trees have been added to the 56 others mutilated by an un- Known vandal during the last few weeks. It is admitted that the offender is an employe of the Washington Rapid Transit Co., although officials of the utility assert that the work was unauthorized. It appears that protruding limbs hindered the progress of double-decked buses, and that in the middle of the night an employe of the company took it self to clear the right of way. The company has promised to divulge the name of the guilty person to the authorities. In the meantime, the occurrence has been made the basis of renewed attacks against the double-decked buses, with a considerable public opinion clamoring for their removal. To a vociferous part of the public this modern type of equipment has never been popular. Other bus riders, however, prefer the double- deckers, and are preparing to organize a fight for their retention. Whoever mutilated the trees should be pros- ecuted to the full limit of the law, and it is to be hoped that the sentence imposed will be sufficiently drastic as to serve as an effective warning in the future. The tree-trimming episode, however, should not be made the basis of enforced double-deck bus removal, a mat- ter which should be settled on its individual merits. WAR ON THE CORN BORER. The gravity of the dangerfrom the ravages of the latest insect. pest, the European corn borer, can be appreciated when it is known that on Friday last the Senate passed the bill, which had been sent over from the House, ap- propriating $10,000,000 to eradicate the pesi. The Department of Agriculture has not al- lowed the grass to grow under its feet in the matter of starting the war. The bureau of entomology has already started the campaign. Arrangements are being perfected whereby 1% least 1,000 farmers will be employed in the four States in which the borer has made the greatest headway——Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michi- gan and Indiana. Cooperation on the part of the officials of those States has already been pledged to the department, and it is expected that other States in the infected section, as well as those threatened with the invasion, will promptly join with the Federal authorities in the warfare. Farm bureaus, county agents and similar organizations will help in the campaign, which will start immediately. Weather conditions during the next few months will have a de- termining effect upon the success or failure of the fight against the invaders. By the end of the fiscal year it is expected that the moths will have emerged, and if the insects are not gen- erally destroyed by that date it will mean that the campaign must continue at least for an- other season. In spite of the fact that Congress has placed at the disposal of the Department of Agricul- ture the largest fund ever made available for the eradication of such a pest, it is still up to the farmer himself to bring success to the de- partmental experts. Without the complete and willing cooperation of those whose crops are threatened there can be nothing but vic- tory for the corn borer. HARMONY IN THE AIR. The presence in Washington this week of several of the leading musical organizations of the country, and the pleasure that the music- loving public derives from the concerts and operas pesented, give impetus to the move- ment to build up in Washington a great male chorus, Many of the department stores and other large institutions are inaugurating choral so- cieties in their.social programs for general civic betterment. This form of activity has been made the basis of social service work in many of the large plants of the country, and now Washington, which already has sev- eral small organizations in training for chorus work, is to endeavor to build up a male chorus comparable with the choruses of other cities. To this end the National Capital male chorus is broadcasting to every man in Washington who sings, or thinks he can sing, to come in and demonstrate his ability as a warbler. It is explained by Director Harned that there is no charge for tuition exacted against the will- ing songster and that those who develop ability to make harmonious sounds with their vocal organs will have an opportunity in the future to give the musical critics a chance to do their worst with their typewriters or their pencils, until they decide that the great musical - or- ganization, now in the formative stage, is en- titled to praise instead of a shower of over- ripe fruit, . Up to date the training has not proceeded far enough to warrant a riot in front of the training quarters, which are located at 1317 New York avenue. In fact, those who pass the building during the singing even assert that the trainees give promise of great things in the way of developing a ‘great male chorus.”’ | | | upon him-— + Bs « - em be aa Pk ON Se Rte FOR Nw ay ORL: Same OME a eee _ 6S.

Serve on a hot platter, . he has brought me the recipe used by his daughter, and we are handing it on to you. That the rolls are delicious we have no doubt, for the gentleman was loud in his acclaim.

Indeed, I do agree with you that large and elab- orate luncheons are not in good taste, and I feel that your comment is one that might be voiced by many women concerned with things of the day. We simplify everything when we simplify the so-called “eating end of it,” end, after all, who among us wishes to go out in the middle of the day to an oc- casion designed for the purpose of get- ting together, in whatever name the getting together takes place, and 60 fill ourselves with food that interested conversation becomes an ordeal and sleep becomes the one interest of the moment? Big, heavy, expensive lunch- eons are rapidly becoming a thing of the past, and in their place slowly comes into being the dainty luncheon, redolent with the aroma of fresh flowers and made mightily attrac- tive with @ persistent color scheme. In this manner does the luncheon ap- peal to our senses as well as to our in- ner man, and our enjoyment is great- er, our comfort greater, and our pock- etbook fatter than ever has it been be- fore—after a day's entertaining. Here is a veal loaf, with vegetables, that will, I hope, meet your needs. It comes to me from a cook boek printed in Nevada in 1887. Veal Loaf. Take 344 pounds of veal and one thick slice of fat salt pork and chop the whole raw. Take elx common crackers, pounded fine, two eggs, half a cup of butter, one teaspoonful of pep- per, a little clove and galt. Mix all well together and make into a loaf like a loaf of bread. Put into a shallow baking pan and add a little water. Cover with bits of butter and dredge with flour. Bake slowly two hours, basting as any meat. (Beef may be substituted tn place of veal. The vege- table sauce follows.) Vegetable Sauce. Keep enough water in the dish cook- ing the meat loaf to allow for gravy, and when the meat is done remove it to a hot platter. Add to the liquor in the baking dish sufficient fiour to thicken, and add hot water in the usual manner, following it with salt and pep- per to taste. Then add to the gravy about two cupfuls of cooked vegetabies —preferably peas, beans and carrots, the two latter vegetables being cut in small pieces. eat the whole thor- ance to you in your baking. The cake is too rich, I am afraid, with too much sugar and butter for your other pro- portions. However, after the school is over we shall make for you an appoint- men and bring you here to the studio where we can make a cake together. Golden Sauce. (To be used with apple dumpling.) Beat into a pint of scalding milk a half cupful of sugar and the whipped yolks of three eggs. Stir this mixture until {it becomes a cream, but not a custard (in a double boiler), and then remove from the fire and flavor with a teaspoonful of vanilla and the white of an egg, whipped. And now I’ve a question to ask. Of all the requests that come to me for the name of the farmer in Vermont who makes the delicious maple sugar products, only one is still with me, and without an answer. Who wrote me on @ small slip of light, lemon-colored yellow paper, with no heading, no sig- nature, and no date of writing?

If the detective got killed, nobody would have cared—and, incidentally, if the author of the piece had suffered the same fate it is barely possible that the na- tive stage would not have suffered a great grief in the loss of tke script. Billed as a “new drama” the newest Davis opus approaches the border line of hilarious burlesque before the first act has been safely gotten across. Someone is killed in each act and no one is concerned who the next fellow will be. True, the plot has the mystery angle to it—the fantastic question to solve: Who does the killing?—but it is a stock plot and the killings are too often and too complete to be convinc- ing. Paul Harvey, who investigates the case, is the typical hard-boiled investi- gator. Edwin Maxwell, the griei stricken father of the deceased, is anything but overcome at the news of his son's death. Eleanor Woodruff, who does the wife of |Mr. Rankin, is perhaps the most con- vincing character of the lot, although Niles Welch, Ray Collins and Georgie Lee Hall do quite nicely with their assignments. It is of little or no benefit to tell the story of “The Donovan Affair.” Suffice it to say that it has been delved into ever since mystery plays were in vogue. There is a house party—the lights are / turned out—someone is killed. And thus the story. There are some twelve ‘suspects and whether the guilty man ts f Me ) i tye 4 oe Wt wt het ge | Ww | Al Manuracruans™ 08s eens nano oc FLOUR No matter how skilled a cook you are—if the flour isn’t right you can’t get the results you want.

William A. Brady resents Helen Hayes, in “What Brery Woman Knows,’’ by Sir James M. Barrie. THE CAST. Sometimes, and often of late, there is wonderment about this old institu- tion called the theater—where it is heading to, what will become of it, and sundry and divers other thoughts; when, of a sudden, comes an awaken- ing: Such, for instance, as Helen- Hayes brings about in a revival of Sir James M. Barrie’s delightful play, “What Every Woman Knows.” Wit such food as this the theater will live forever. It happens that Helen Hayes is a native-born Washingtonian. Not 50 many years ago she received here her baptism of theater, a girl in early teens. Now grown to woman's estate, by a strange twist of fate she essays stardom in a role that antedates not only her own birth date, but calls for portrayal suspected of the crime before the final curtain is idle speculation. “The Donovan Affair” will probably be booked among the mystery thrillers of this season. It is humorous, in parte—never pathetic. It contains the gist of the real mystery play—the knifing in the dark and the twelve tried and true suspects. It contains a defi- nite amount of entertainment value, and enough killings to satisfy even the most blood-thirsty theatergoer. It has the sufficient dosage of hokum to put it across, with all the blare and tinsel usually secompanying this sort of dramatic effort. It is, in short, a mystery play of the usual dimensions— excepting there are too many moments of a woman clad in the conventions, environs and emotions of an older age and, on top of this, speaking with a burr on her tongue.. Maggie Wylie, the wily little Scot, might have seen projected in @ dream fantasy from the — of the then Jamie Barrie to the uture and mature Helen Hayes. What- ever the inspiration, Barrie’s pen pic- ture and the stage portrayal of Helen Hayes make an irresistible and perfect combination. Gotham having accorded her laurels for the rendition of this role—press and public paid their tributes on Broad- way—Helen Hayes’ arrival here last night was somewhat in the nature of a triumphant return. They say that this is @ soulless cit}, its theatergoers wan and worn, with politics rife and no love for the arts. Forsooth, there has been developed here on the banks of the Potomac a fine sense of discrimination. So there is little pulling of wool over mative eyes. The onlookers at the Belasco theater last night lost sight of the fact that there is a birth certificate on file in the archives of the District building. They acclaimed not a Wash- ingtonian, but an actress born to the 8. Old timers declare there was only one Maude Adams—and that is s0; further, that there is only one actress in all the wide, wide world who could play Peter Pan. Some day, when theater historians get around to it, they may record the fact that Helen Hayes struck her stride when she followéd in the footsteps of her illustrious predecessor and took to the Barrie plays. Here she has material to her liking—and in Mag- gie Wylie she finds a part coordinated to her every whim and wish, a woman- ish little woman, a wisp of mightiness that sweeps over the empty soul of a cock-sure man. Barrie created Maggie Wylie and Hel- en Hayes breathes life in her—the di- vine spark of the artist. Other hands, too have helped, and mightily, in the revival of the old play. There is the work of Lumsden Hare, who staged it and plays one of the parts. He caught DANCING IN TWO ROOMS 1,500 ATTEND BALL GIVEN TO AID NEEDY VETERANS Congress, Diplomatic Corps and Virtually Every Soldier Group Represented. With members of Congress, the diplo- matic corps and virtually every veter- ans’ organization in the city in at- tendance, the allied veterans’ grand ball was held at the City club last night. Approximately 1,500 persons at- tended the ball which was given under auspices of the veterans’ joint enter- tainment committee of the Allied War Veterans of the District of Columbia. All funds derived from the sale of tickets will be devoted to the care of needy veterans, it was announced. Maj. Charles William Freeman was chair- man of the entertainment committee, assisted by Thomas Costello, Henry Jett, Harold Fiske, Charles W. Reimer and Charles Kohen. \ While the United States Army and Navy band orchestras played the latest dance music in the main ballroom an entertainment program was being of- fered in a smaller ballroom. At i11 o’clock the program was dispensed with and the United States Marine Band or- chestra played dance music in the Small ballroom. The dancing con- tinued until 1 o'clock.

COOKING SCHOOL ECHUES How I make good pies every rime For a medium size pie I use 244 cups flour, 34 cup Crisco, | teaspoon salt. To meas- ure % of a cup of Crisco I take a measur- ing cup, put in 4 cup of cold water, then add ehough Crisco to bring the water to the top in cup, pour it off and I have an exact 44 cup of Crisco. Then I cut the Crisco into the flour with two knives, criss-cross fashion. (If I used my fingers the heat from them would soften the Crisco and blend it with the flour too closely to make a flaky crust.) As the Crisco is cut into small particles each one becomes covered with flour, and when enough cold water is added (4 to 6 table- spoons) the dough will then be composed of these small particles, which when rolled become layers of flour and Crisco. Then if baking is started in a very hot oven to set mixture before the Crisco has time to melt, the result will be a tender, flaky pastry. Be careful about water Have the water cold and use only enough to make a paste which will easily clear the bowl and is soft enough so it will not break at the edges when rolled. It is easier to tell when you have just the right amount of water if you use your fingers to mix it. Now take half the-dough, dust the board with flour, using as little as possible, and roll the pastry very lightly from the center outward, each motion of the rolling pin ending in the air, not on the board. It should be about an eighth of an inch thick. Fold it over whe, a) lay over a Criscoed plate, fold back over the plate, smooth into shape with the fingers and trim the edges. To prevent the filling from soaking into the bottom crust Brush it over with melted Crisco, dust a little flour over that, then add the filling prepared according to the recipe you are using. Moisten the edge with water, then roll the other half of the dough, fold it over one-half, make slits with a knife in the center of the fold for steam to escape. Lay over the pie, with the fold in the center, turn back to cover it, press edges together with thumb and finger, trim, then press together again. To keep the juice in Take a strip of plain cloth about three inches wide, wet it in cold water and put around the edge of the plate, letting one half lie on top of the edge of the pie crust and the other half just under the pie plate. Have the strip long enough so that the ends will lap over each other two or three inches. For very juicy fillings, make a little funnel of paper or take pieces of macaroni and stick into two or three of the slits you have made. The juices will bubble up into these and return to the pie as it cools. When pie is partly cool remove cloth and funnels. When juices run out they will burn on the bottom of the oven, causing a smudge which is likely to add a smoky taste to the pie and leaving the oven hard to clean. Chocolate Meringue Pie Make the pastry with Crisco and your pie shell will slip off the outside of the plae into the inside without breaking, and be tender and flaky, too. — Cover an inverted pie plate with pastry; turn back the edges to make it firm. Prick well with a fork to prevent bubbles. Bake in a hot oven (450° F.) about 15 minutes. Then fill with Chocolate Cream made as follows: Melt chocolate in double boiler. Blend sugar salt and corn starch. Add milk. Cook unti thick, stirring constantly. Add beaten egg yolks, melted chocolate and Crisco. tinue cooking a minute or two. Pour into the baked shell, cover with meringue made by beatin the 3 egg whites until stiff and dry, and ad 6 tablespoons granulated sugar. Return to slow oven ( F.) for 15 minutes or until brown. Serve when thoroughly cold. Makes one medium sized pie. Deep Dish Apple Pie (a pie without an undercrust) werve in dishes they are baked in. Or when they are baked, turn them upside down on plates, cover with sweetened whipped cream, sprinkle with chopped nuts and call them Apple Crow’s Nest. Prepare 3 cups of sliced apples, then mix in 1 cup of sugar, teaspoon cinnamon. Divide into 4 or 5 individual baking dishes. Add \% teaspoon salt to each. Dot with bits of Crisco. Cover with the pastry, making slits in the center for steam to escape. Bake in hot oven (450° F.) until pastry starts to brown. Then reduce heat to moderate (350° te “ee apples are done.

Business property kept in repair may be the subject of a depreciation allow- ,is intended to cover the estimated les- \sening in value of the original prop- erty, due to the wear and tear, decay, etc., which, in time, will require the abandonment or replacement of the property, in spite of ordinary current repairs. The cost of incidental repairs, which neither- materially add to the value of the property nor appreciably prolong its life, may be deducted as a business expense, provided the plant or property account is not increased by the amount of such expenditures. If, however, the repairs are of such kind as to make good the depreciation, for example, a new floor or a new /roof, the cost is not deductible. The amount expended by’a taxpayer dur- ‘| ing the taxable year for improvements, replacements, or renewals of a per- manent mature is a capital expendi- ture, and may not be deducted from | his gross income for such taxable year.

A two-bid would be correct with either | No. 1 or No. 2, whether the sarong sult were a Major or a Minor; possibly the 'bid is more valuable in a Minor than in a Major. Objection has been raised against this two-bid convention on the ground that the information conveyed by it is too definite and tells the opponents too much; but experience has shown that in all games of the Whist family the benefit obtained by informing the part- ner more than offsets the disadvant- age which results from informing the adversaries. With No. 3 a two-bid the partner accurately Hearts; but it should not be made be- cause it might deter him, with only two Hearts and with good Spades, from showing the Spades. (When two is. bid originally, a denial by partner with only x-x is not required as in the case of a one-bid.) With No. 3 it would be advantageous for a partner with strong Spades to show them; therefore a bid of one Heart would be wiser than a bid of two would inform concerning the (Copyright, Joun F.

Once upon a time, set great store by a well-turned ankle, but they did not care much whether | their legs were prettily formed, because long skirts hid them from view. Later, | there arose a new consciousness about | the calves of the legs, and now, as skirts are at the extreme of brevity, they can | not always be kept from revealing the | it be-| truth about knees. Therefore hooves- us to see that our knees are | soft. well rounded straight. and beautifully Bony knees, with skin that is harsh | and rough, can be corrected by a little | regular care. Every day, while in the tub, scrub the knees well with soap and hot water and a brush. After you have had your cold shower and rubdown, massage the knees for several minutes with olive oil, lanolin or cocoa butter. This done, remove any surplus oiliness, then dust with powder. I have a great sympathy for persons afflicted with knocked knees. It is a real affliction, for the condition is very difficult to correct. In adults, it is prac- tically impossible. Sometimes the trouble is congenital, but more often it is due to improper use of the feet and legs in infancy. How foolish it is of parents to coax children to walk before their little legs are strong enough to hold them. Young people can frequently over- | i | } | | | /are kneeling on the floor. | } This is no;come the knocked-knee deformity by a | faithful routine of special exercises. I ladies | Would suggest the following, done 20 | minutes each night and morning: Stand with the feet wide apart and the knees stiff. Rest the palms of the hands on the top of table and keep the body upright. Now make an effort to bring the feet together with- out lifting them from the floor or bending the knees. Stand with the legs spread apart and the toes turned in. Keep the heels on the floor and try to squat down. Next, do the same movement, but with the toes turned squarely out. Stand erect with the knees and feet close together. Keeping them so and resting the hands lightly on the fore- legs gently lower the body until you Then with- out moving the hands and still keep- ing the knees and feet together, give |@ little spring and try to attain your | first position. a as Dear Miss Paris: ~ will you please tell me about a tonic to hasten the whitening of gray hair? (Mrs.) G. B. N. Answer—There is such a tonic, and I recently described it in this column. However, I am not permitted to men- tion trade’: nmames and addresses, and you did not send a stamped self-ad- dressed envelope for a personal reply. 1927 (Copyright, i, by Vogue.) am % = By YOUNG girl wrote to me not long A ago to ask about taxis and escorts. She was uncertain as to whether the boy who was going to a party with her would feel he ought to provide a taxi (which perhaps Would not be con- venient for him, whether they ought to go without one or whether she might have one without giving offense? dare say this is a problem to many a girl. The trouble appears to me to be with the escort system. I have already written about this, but I am delighted to do so again. In the social world girls are not left to depend upon their boy friends in this manner. Their parents see to it that girls are sent to parties and brought home. I do not mean that young people may not go about: together in much greater freedom than used to be allowed to them, particularly to those who belonged to the great world. They may stop for each other, the girl in her family motor for the boy; the boy, perhaps, in his family motor (or a taxi) for the girl. If they have been friends long enough for the parents to know all about him, this is quite per- missible. But to expect a casual ac- bay eo ae to play the part of escort to a girl, at no matter what trouble or expense, would be socially impossible. It is never done in smart circles. When a young woman lives at home, her family should look after her a little in this matter. or should send her |’ out of an evening in a self-respecting way. If she is alone, oseuies her living in a strange city, she can look after her- self.

Stockholm, Feb.7 (By A. P.).—Punch is no longer the Swedish national drink. In five years the consumption’ has shrunk by more than one half and the doctors say that the “punch pods” snd “neck wads” have gone down in equal proportion. The reasons assigned by restaurant keepers and médical men are partly that the famous sweet liquor now costs too much, that the younger generation favors the “svelte” English or American figure, and to the growing popularity of x athletics. Instead of “coffee and punch,” diners- out in Stockholm now ask more for “coffee and cognac” after meals. The demand for whiskey also is showing a decrease. . wae SAS ee Lactobacillus Acidophilus | Call our product “L. A.” Milk. (Trade. Mark).

OSTON, Feb. 7.—Henry Lamar, of Washington, won his bout here tonight with Whitey Allen, of Bos- ton, on a technical Knockout. Referee Joe O’Connor stopped the fight in the sixth round with two left to go. There need of letting it go because Lamar pum- as much and as while Allen liter- on Lamar long as six, the local man as he wished, ally did not land one blow during the whole contest. It was only Allen’s oxlike as visitor from producing an knockout. Much as he whacked Allen did not do much damage. In fact, it was not any condition which led to stopping the fight, but merely the almost monot- onous way in which he was being trounced.

Once in front, Maryland won the game by its fine defensive play in the same manner in which it de- feated the Stevens institute team last week. So effective was the Maryland defense in the second half that not until after fifteen min- utes of play had passed were the Tarheels able to score their first field goal of the period. It was during that time that Maryland ted by Dean and Boyd, established a safe lead, The Tarheels wasted no Ime in starting scoring activities and amassed 8 points before Maryland was able to score. Van Story and Price led this attack with two field goals each. Both contributed one long shot before the first five minutes had been played. At this point Faber and Dean in- terceded for Maryland’s cause and the score was brought to 8-6. Faber scored on a sensational one-hand shot from the side court, while Dean dropped in two field goals from afar. Another North Carolina rally left Maryland in the wake, however, and with the first half almost over, the Tarheels were ahead, 12 to 6. Faber and Dean tied the score with field goals, however, and Adams’ one-handed shot sent Maryland to the van, 18-16 at the end of .the half.

Reiterating charges that Amateur Athletic union gained “autocratic control” of the American Olympic association, the Young Men’s Christian association has withdrawn from membership in the Olympic body. This action announced tonight by Dr. John Brown, jr., was forecast recently when the Y. M. C. A. protested against the necessity of having its representa- tives in the international Y. M. C. A. athletic championships at Copenhagen, Denmark, next July approved ,by the A. A. U. The Y. M. C.

A.’s decision, ““‘whereas no other organization has more than three and approximately 35 organizations have but one.” The chief point of issue between the Y. M. C. A. and A. A. U., Dr. Brown emovhasizes, is “the arbitrary ruling of the A. A. U. that athletes of different bodies wishing to compete together must first register individually and become members of the A. A. U. They also are required to join the A. A. U. as clubs to secure a ‘sanction’ to hold meets, for which a fee is required in addition to the club membership fee.” Exvressing his opinion that the A. A.

Revaluation of the property of the Washington Railway & Electric Co., not including the Potomac Electric Power Co., for purposes of fixing street car fares, will be made within a short time, following the decision of the District Court of Appeals handed down yester- day, declaring $25,786,880 as the fair value of the Capital Traction Co. Ma). W. E. R.

It is based on the investment theory, rep- resenting an estimate of capital actu- ally invested, rather than on reproduc- tion cost. named by the court in the Capital Traction case as the correct basis of valuation.

The court stated that the company had a cash reserve cover- ing this item, and refused to make the deduction “We lost approximately $2,000,000 of valuation on the appeal,” said Maj Covell, “but the company lost more than $5,000,000 We are fairly well satisfied, since we must use the basis of reproduction cost, that the figure fixed by the court representa fair value May Appeal to Supreme Court. “The decision is final as far as we are The company might appeal to the United States Supreme Court, if it wishes to. by alleging confiscation of its property without due process of law.

Seventy-five novices, representing nineteen District lodges of the Inde- pendent Order of Odd Fellows, last night received first degrees in the order at exercises in the Odd Fellows’ temple, opening a jubilee week in honor of Ernest W. Bradford, grand sire of the sovereign grand lodge. He is hastening East in order to be present at the final exercises Friday.

The court did not question the valid- ity of the merger of 1895 nor the good faith of the parties tyereto, nor did it cast any refiections upon the value of the stock and bonds which were pur- | chased at prices above par The lower court made no allowance for depreciation of the company’s prop- erties and consequently the appellate court did not inquire why. There were no reports or testimony considered by the appellate court regarding deprecia- tion. The company maintains a de- preciation fund, the handling of which appears to be of but passing interést either to the court or the public. From the appearance of the record it is apparent that had not the company insisted on the inclusion of the sum of $5,150,000 the controversy would prob- ably not have reached the courts.
