President Coolidge, by a thor- oughly characteristic reaction, finds that Philippine liberty would not be economical. Where King George made his great mistake was in not informing the Colonists frankly that they couldn't afford a Declaration of Independ- When a people wait until they are affluent enough to enjoy their free- dom, they will find themselves too rich to value it. . « . oF The veto of the Philippine inde- pendence plebiscite bill by a de- ecendant of the Puritans is in com- plete accord with majority opinion in this country today, but how far the American people have traveled. So poor when they started out for them- selves that they had to borrow the money from Maryland to begin their own Capital, they squander today untold millions on the enforcement of oppréssive laws that enslave them. A good deal must be said in favor of the Filipinos—they want their inde- pendence. . - * * From the sidewiping of Frank O.

DETONATION WAKES RESIDENTS IN AREA Nearly Every Window of-the Model Concrete. Settle- ment Is Wrecked. Parco, Wyo., April 6 (By A. P:).— Sixteen workmen were killed and seven others were injured by an ex- plosion and ensuing fire at the re- finery of the Producers & Hefiners Corporation here early today. Damage to the plant was estimateid tonight at between $500,000 and §81,- 000,000. Nearly every window in this model town of concrete buildings was wrecked by the terrific blast that wrecked a high-pressure still and scat- tered blazing oil about. Awakened by the detonation, resi- dents rushed to the plant to find it a mass of flames, but succeeded in res- cuing a few of the injured workers. The majority of those killed died almost instantly. The bodies of all were badly charred. Two Trapped on Tower. Two of the men were trapped on top of a 90-foot delphlegmeter tower, where water is separated from the oil. R. N. Sherman jumped to escape the flames, which had heatted the steel tower to a white heat, but landed in the seething furnace of the burning still below. William Dodd, the other worker, clung to his perch on the tower and the rescuers found his charred body when the steel had cooled sufficiently to permit climbing it. The dead: John Paul Palmer, Frank Taylor, W W. Dodd, Frederick Jesmer, F. 8. Speyer, Albert Smith, Victor Nickerson, Clar- ence Posey, Victoriano Montoya, Or- celo Martinez, R. N. Sherman, E. R. Welch, G. G. Turpin, Arthur Ayala, Calvin Smith and George Curry. Two Explanations Offered. Two reasons unofficially were ad- vanced for the explosion, one that there was too much or too little pressure in a chamber of the high pressure still, or that the intense heat, 2,000 degrees fahrenheit, had sprung the still. The explosion in the chamber set fire to nine other stills and two storage tanks. The flames were subdued after firemen from Rawlins joined the local fire- men. Officials of the company had not decided what caused the accident. An investigation was started by M. E. Pickett, Carbon county coroner. The disaster, it was estimated, will cost the State of Wyoming between $75,000 and $100,000 in compensation paid the widows and orphans of those killed under the State’s compensation law. Nearly all of the victims were mar- ried men with children. The explosion was the first serious mishap since Parco was established by Frank Kistler, founder of the Pro- ducers & Refiners Corporation, nearby 2 years ago. Mr. Kistler built the town aS a community center for em- ployes of the company. It followed the Spanish style of architecture and was composed of permanent business and residence structures. Michigan Votes Lash For Bank Robbers Lansing, Mich., April 6 (By A. P.).— The Michigan house of representatives today passed a bill authorizing the whipping post for bank robbers and later attached a similar amendment to senate bill providing life sentence on charges of breaking and entering armed.

The maxi- mum is set at.300 lashes. 3 Shot in Attempt To Dynamite Dam Marked Tree, Ark., April 7 (By A P.),—An attempt to dynamite the locks and dam near here which would have resulted in the flooding of the town was discovered by guards last night.

P.).—Rid- ing the trucks of a crack Union || Pacific passenger train, the first transcontinental tramp cat arrived in Chicago today. The animal boarded the train at Ogden, Utah, or some point west of there, and refused leave its berth on the trucks, until the run was com- pleted. First official notice of the cat’s presence was taken when the con- ductor wired C. J. Collins, general passenger agent at Omaha, it was riding the car “Mesquite.” “Al- though twice removed, it promptly crawis back to its berth,” the con- ductor wired. “Having no religious scruples or superstition, am _ allow- ing it to remain here to its un- known destination.” The cat was fed en route by passengers, who took pictures of it on its precarious perch. The ani- mal had been on the truck more than 48 hours. May VIGILANCE COMMITTEE WILL POLICE RIVERDALE 18 Citizens to Replace Force Removed After the Auto Speed-Trap Scandal.

Charlotte, N. C., April 6 (By A. P.).— A precedent was set in North Carolina today when the Charlotte News ap- pealed to the courts to get a story. _ The action followed refusal of Sheriff J. B. Robinett of Alexander county and the chief of police of Taylorsville to divulge the names of four youths ar- rested there Monday on liquor charges. Superior Court Judge T. B. Finley gave the newspaper an order requiring the sheriff to show his records to a News reporter, who was sent to Taylorsville.

ACCUSED UNMOVED; HIS WIFE IN TEARS Slayer to Be Kept in Jail at Fairfax; His Counsel Will Appeal. (From a Staff Correspondent.) Fairfax Courthouse, Va., April 6.— Louis S. Boersig was found guilty of murder at 4 o'clock today. and) was sentenced to die in the electric chair. Thus—assuming that all appeals fail—the Commonwealth of Virginia will do to Boersig what it was once feared that mob violence would do. Boersig, whose defense was bad liq- uor and a bad memory, was charged with four separate crimes—the killing of T-year-old Loretta Ridgeway, the killing of her sister, 6-year-old Kath- leen; assault on their mother, Mrs. Minnie Ridgeway, and the theft of the family savings of $83. Electrocution Delayed. Boersig heard himself condemned to death without so much as the batting of an eye. His lawyers, however, seem- ed crushed. The two young men, Frederick Flynn and Lindsay Carne, were trying their first important case and the result was a severe blow to them. Flynn announced that ke would ap- peal the case to the Virginia supreme court of appeals. In order to give him time for this action, Judge Howard B. Smith postponed the electrocution of Boersig from May 7 to June 7. The verdict was reached in a room in the courthouse that had been con- verted into a temporary hispital. Eleven of the jurors were sitting down, while the twelfth lay on a cot. This juror, John M: Plaskett, 60 years old, suffered three heart attacks during the day and halted the triai as many times. He was first stricken about 11 o’clock. He recovered, how- ever, and asked ‘that. the trial go on. He was next strickn at 12 o'clock, just as the case was about to be given to the jury. This time the attack was serious. He was carried to “The Tav- ern,” across the street, and treated by Dr. Ford Swetman. While the eleven jurors were waiting for Plaskett to regain his strength, they went to the Fairfax cemetery to attend the funeral of Charles Stuart, who died Sunday at the age of 101. Mr. Stuart was the oldest man in northern Vir- ginia, and well remei..bered tne stage coach that ran between Washington and Fairfax. Insists on Taking Place, At 3 o’clock Plaskett insisted on go- ing ahead with the trial and he was assisted into the courthouse. Just as the lawyers were preparing to make their final arguments he slumped down in his chair and trembled from another attack. He was taken to the (CONTINUED ON PAGE 5, COLUMN 5.) Coolidge and Borah Confer on Mexico (By the Associated Press.) By invitation, Chairman Borah, of the Senate foreign relations committee, went to the White House late yester- day and conferred for more than 30 minutes with President Coolidge.

NEW MACHINE AWAITED Apache Lodge, Roosevelt Dam, Ariz., April 6 (By A. P.).—Undaunted by the burning of his monoplane, the Santa Maria, on the waters of Roosevelt lake here today, Commander Francesco de ‘Pinedo, Italian long-distance flier, an- nounced tonight he would obtain a new plane and continue his four-continent tour. Commander de Pinedo intends to re- sume his flight just as quickly as he can arrange for a sister ship of the de- stroyed Santa Maria to be sent to the United States from his native Italy, he informed the Associated Press tonight. The statement was made after he had been told of Assistant Secretary of War Davison’s message that an American army airplane was at his disposal if he desired it. “I appreciate very much the kind offer, for which I send my heartfelt thanks,” said Commander de Pinedo. “But I am waiting a few days for an- other similar plane, to arrive in New York from Italy, with which I expect to continue my program in the United States. “I am deeply touched by this proof of the friendship of the United States government and I beg you to inform your government to accept my kindest regards.” A thoughtless boy and a match caused the destruction of the big seaplane after the aviator had flown it across the Atlantic ocean, risked his life soar- ing over the wilds of South America and brought it here against great odds in making hops by inland waters en route to the Pacific coast. The match was tossed on the oll- coated surface of the lake about the plane after the youth lighted a cig- (CONTINUED ON PAGE 21, COLUMN 538.)

CARRINGTON Epistle, Allegedly Written by His Brother, Admitted at Divorce Trial. eee TELLS HOW QUARREL ‘x ENDED PARTNERSHIP Woman’s Visits to Campbell Carrington’s Apartment’ Building Related. Chicago, Ill., April 6 (By A. P.).— A lifelong partnership of brothers, split by a quarrel centering about the wife of one, was described in circuit court by Col. Edward C. Carrington, New York lawyer, in his suit for di- vorce here today. He and his brother, Campbell Car- rington, whom he names as corespon- dent, in all their years of law prac- tice never had a quarrel of any con- sequence, over fees, arrangement of business or pleasure, until difficulties arose over his wife, the colonel testi- fied. The fifth witness to take the stand in the trial which opened today, Col. Carrington graphically described find- ing a letter from his brother to Mrs. Anna Walsh Carrington, defendant. The discovery, he said, was. made at the Carrington camp at Saranac lake, N. Y., and on returning, the colonel said, he found his wife and Mrs. Ge- rard Foster, of New York city, hastily searching for something. He told them if they were looking for a letter from Campbell Carrington, he had it in his pocket. Letter Is Admitted. He asked Mrs. Foster to go home, the colonel testified, and with dliffi- culty prevented his wife from com- mitting suicide when he refused to re- turn the letter, which ended: “I would give anything, darling, to have you in my arms and to hold you real tight. I am terribly hungry for you, and it seems like you have been away from me for years. Are you go- ing to arrange some way to see me when I get back, or are you satisfied to go on without seeing me? “All my love’‘and a million kisses.”’ The letter was admitted in evidence after a wrangle between George L. Schein, attorney for Mrs. Carrington, and Paulus Koenig, of counsel for Carrington. Col. Carrington, as he _ testified glanced occasionally at his wife, who displayed but little nervousness. Wife Stuck to Mother. The immediate cause of, the breach, he testified, was that his wife would not live away from her mother and two children and he would not live with them. When the .colonel demanded Mrs. Carrington’s mother and the chil- dren leave his home, he said his wife told him to get out and stay out, and TT SR a DIED BELL—On Tuesday, April 5, 1927, at 11 a. m..

P.).—Premier Poincare is threatened with loss. of about $80,000,000 offered the French government by a Swedish-American group for the match monopoly of France. The finance commission of the chamber of deputies debated the offer today and then voted to a 20-20 tie on the question of accepting it. The ~orsipag will be taken before the cham- er. The foreign syndicate’s offer promises revenues to the French government far above what it now receives from the match factories. It also expects to lower the price to the public. Today’s tie vote was the first reverse Premier Potncare has sustained in sev- eral months. After the vote, however, he said that he had no intention of miaking the match offer a question of confidence. The privilege of retailfng matches and tobacco now is granted by the government to widows of officers of the army and navy, or others who are considered worthy of pension. in Trainer of Channel Swimmers Is Dead Dover, England, April 6 (By A. P.).— Jack Weidman, noted swimmer and trainer of channel swimmers, died here today at the age of 65. He is said to have discovered the fast swimming route from France to Eng- land which was followed by Gertrude Ederle and others in record-breaking channel swims. He accompanied T. M. Burgess when the latter swam the channel in 1911, and also helped train Miss Lillian Cannon, American swiin- mer, for her attempt to swim the chan- nel last year. Alaska Flu Epidemic , Reported by Flier Nome, Alaska, April 6 (By A. P.).— An influenza epidemic of serious pro- portions in the town of Bethel, on the lower Kuskokwin river, was report- ed by R. H. Merrill, aviator, who arrived here Monday night from Anchorage. Merrill obtained his information when he landed at McGrath, 200 miles northeast of Bethel, to refuel. Reports there said that virtually all the resi- dents of Bethel were stricken. Bethel has about 150 inhabitants, mostly Eskimos. Russia Bids for U. 8S. Tourists. Moscow, April 6 (By A.

P.).—With assets of clothing, furniture and other sundries of unestimated value opposed |to liabilities totaling $93,055.14, a vol- untary petition in bankruptcy was filed in United States District court today by Rita H. De Alba Lydig, former flan- cee of the late Dr. Percy Stickney Grant. Mrs. Lydig was Rita De Acosta be- fore she was married to W. E. D. Stokes. She divorced Stokes and mar- ried Maj. Lydig and divorced ‘him also. Her engagement to the late Dr. Grant was announced in 1921, but was broken in May, 1924, her announce- ment said, “Owing to Bishop Manning’s refusal to give his consent to the mar- riage in the Protestant Episcopal Church...’ Debts listed in the petition were a ounts due to several Paris firms. The enumeration covered a wide range, many creditors evidently being cos- tumers and caterers. A cable company and a motor concern were named and the city of New York was put down for personal taxes amounting to $296.43. The will of Dr. Grant filed early this year did not mention Mrs. Luddig, his sister and a chambermaid in his. rec- tory being the principal beneficiaries. Mrs. Lydig recently has given her views on the clergy and people of fashion in a series of magazine articles, declaring among other things that the fashionable church “is a fashionable club and little else.’ : Portuguese Flier Fails Again in Brazil Pernambuco, Brazil, April 6 (By A. P.).—Maj. Sarmento Beires, Portuguese aviator, who arrived here March 20 in an attempt to fly westward around the world from Lisbon, failed today in a renewed attempt to continue his flight down the coast toward Buenos Aires. Mr. Beires has had much ill-luck in trying to leave Pernambuco. When his first attempts to take off failed it was blamed on mossy growths floating in the water. These were removed and then it was found that the propeller would have to be replaced. A new pro- peller was shipped here from Buenos Aires -and when the aviator tried to take off today it was found that the plane had broken loose from its moor- ings and drifted against a wharf, dam- aging a wing. Good Asbestos Veins Found in Central Park New York, April 6 (By A. P.).—Asbes- tos has been discovered in Central park. The best veins yet found in or near New York have been struck by work- men excavating for the Eighth avenue subway line at Central park west and Eighty-first street. Veins half an inch to 2 inches wide were found in rocks weighing from 300 to 400 pounds. The quantity, however, is insufficient for commercial uses. Dr. Charles P.

A long list of associations and fees received followed. Affiliation with some of the groups has ceased while many exist as payers of retaining fees. At the end of the day Senator Reed was inquiring about the deal by which the Federated Fruit Growers, Inc., a cooperative formed by a committee of the A. F. B. F., took over the North American Fruit exchange, in an an- nounced effort to show that Sapiro was working for both at the same time to his own advantage. Indications at adjournment were that Sapiro faced several days more of cross-examination. The day passed without mention of Ford.

P.).—The ministry of public works issued a report today regarding the excavations carried on during the past three months at Sakkara; near the step pyramid and the ruins of Memphis. The report alludes to the discovery by Cecil Firth, some days ago, of an ancient tomb in the wall about the ster pyramid. It says search still is con- tinuing for the entrance to the tomb itself, which the builder carefuliy con- cealed. ; Further details are furnished by the report regarding the explorations by Austrian scientists at the pyramids of Gizah, where many tombs of the fourth dynasty were discovered. One of them. dating back to about 3,000 B. C., has a dome of a type previously unknown be- fore the Roman era. This tomb con- tains painted limestone images of its owner, It appears that the builder of the tomb was one Senab, a fabulously wealthy dwarf who was superintendent of dwarfs in charge of the royal ward- robe. He married a Princess Sentites who was an impoverished member of a former royal family. Stoneham Is Cleared In Bucket Shop Case Special to The Washington Post.

ATS NEETIN OPPOSED BY TA Gen. De Marinis Asks Time to Consult Rome; France Denies Secret Steps. FRENCH NAVAL PLAN BRINGS BRITISH REPLY Germany Makes an Attempt to Force Revelation of Powers’ Artillery. Geneva, April 6 (By A. P.).—Warship limitation continued to absorb the at- tention of the League of Nations prep- atory commission as it continued its labors today in an effort to formulate a disarmament treaty. Viscount Cecil, England, handei M. Paul-Boncour, France, a counter pro- posal to the French plan of tiaiting warship tonnage as a whole, without specifying the class of siiips to be con- tiructed, »'.t witn the vignatory pow- ers notifying other nations of their warship building programs. Viscount Cecil suggested that France raveal her naval building plans ficiently far ahead to yive other powers adequate preliminary notice. notify other signatories at a given in- terval in advance of any changes in naval building plans. Italian A dispute arose over private pour- Pparlers among the delegates, in which M. Paul-Boncour communicated »o Lord Cecil and Hugh Gibson, American rep- resentative, the text of his naval limi- tation proposal. Gen. De Marinis, Italy, remarked that he would want time tec consult Rome regarding any agreement reached by private negotiations. Thereupon M. Paul-Boncour, who interpreted this declaration as a criti- cism of his action, arose and denied that there had been any secret conver- sations. The Italian delegate retortea he had not implied that anything had been hidden. He added that it was his duty to protest against M. Paul-Bon- cour’s assumption. Their discussion was interrupted by adjournment until tomorrow morning. Delegate Protests. Germany’s Keen Move. Count Bernstorff, Germany, made a move today which is calculated to force Germany’s former enemies to reveal their actual land armaments, of which Germany virtually is stripped under the Versailles treaty. Count Bernstorff moved the insertion of a clause in the treaty providing that the question of armament and equipment of armies will be considered later. The draft treaties discussed thus far ignore cannon alto- gether, it being reported that none of the great powers wishes to relinquish or reveal its guns left over from the ° world war, which would be impossible to duplisa ee huge expenditures. Mr. Gibsdn promptly objected when the possibility of limiting armaments by limiting budgets was raised. He de- ““ clared that the United States govern- “ ment deems this impracticable and in- equitable, hence inadmissible.

MAYOR ROGERS. ed the Italian proposal that publicity be restricted and that types and details of warships, including their armament, be divulged merely when each keel was laid. Lord Cecil bluntly told the commission that this proposal had no value whatsoever. Signor de Marinis also introduced a proposal that naval personnel should be limited, together with the military effectives of each country, furnishing a total figure for the whole of the two categories in question. New French Program. Paris, April 6 (By A. P.).— One cruiser, six destroyers, five submarines, one mine laying submarine and two dispatch vessels will be built by France between July 1, 1927, and June 930, 1928, under a bill signed yesterday by President Doumergue. The vessels be- long to the second section of France’s naval program. The bil authorizes the laying down of the vessels and provides that credits for their construction be included in the budget. M. Leygues, minister of marine, immediately introduced a bill 'fdr the necessary credits in the cham- ber of deputies. MEXICO FOILS PLOT TO KIDNAP AMERICAN A. E’ Watts, Sinclair Oil Offi- cial, Was to Have Been Victim, Is Charge. Mexico City, April 6 (By A. P.).—A plot to kidnap Albert Edward Watts, head of the Mexico City branch of the Sinclair Oil Co., was discovered by the police last night when they captured a band headed by former Gen. Federico Cordova. Mr. Watts left for the United States yesterday morning without knowing that he was to be captured Monday while driving through the commercial section of the city, and taken to the mountains in the state of Morelos, near Cuernavica, where Jacob Rosenthal, of New York, was murdered last Septem- ber. The police allege that the kidnapers intended to demand heavy ransom for the release of Mr. Watt. The plot was discovered when Cordova approached a secret service man disguished as a chauffeur looking for work, promising him a per centage of the ransom money if he consented to drive the car in which Watts was to be taken into the mountains. Julian Navarro, Clemente Trinidad Ramos, Serafin Corrales and Nazarit Matas Porras, all followers of the late Gen.

P.).—Fascist Italy has decided to try to replace what is termed here the “Wilsonian Method” of guaranteeing European. peace by what is termed the “Mussolinian Method.” This conclusion was drawn in politi- cal circles tonight from the text of the treaty of friendship, arbitration and conciliation between Italy and Hungary, which was signed in the Chigi palace last night and which differs significantly in three respects from the large nurnber of similar treaties concluded recently between Italy and other European na- tions, These are, first, that the treaty con- tains no provisions for registration with the League of Nations; second, that it reopens the path for the official restoration of “secret diplomacy,” and, third, that it renders remote any ulti- mate recourse to the international court at The Hague for settlement of international disputes. Innovations in Appendix. The text of the main treaty, in its failure to arrange for registration of the League of Nations, as was done in the recent Italo-Albanian and Italdé German treaties, does not differ irom similar pacts, but a long appendix regulating the method of conciliation and arbitration offers a number of in- novations indicating a departure from the league’s methods of peacemaking. In the first place, the president of the Swiss confederation will be invited to appoint the members of a special Italo- Hungarian commission of conciliation, composed of one Italian, one Hungarian and one neutral. Should either party, within three months, appeal for concili- ation by the other party, this commis- sion will have the fullest powers for carrying out an inquiry into the dispute and will have the right to call upon both nations for evidence. The written or oral testimony of wit- nesses and experts will be governed by the regulations of The Hague conven- tion of 1907. The commmission also will have the right to visit the places involved in the dispute, and its work will be secret unless it decides other- wise, with the consent of both parties. In the event that a compromise can not be reached the dispute will be handled by a tribunal to be appointed by both nations. Hague a Compromise Step. Unlike previous facts which make an appeal to the international court at The Hague the highest recourse, the present treaty merely says that. both - * 2 ihe yt eee uyy Eas Sart : i - + The entire press, while ON Aig the text of the main 0 ee and comment- oda on it reget refrains | publ y the. te the ap- pendix concerning the s of con- ciliation.

Premier Mussolini, alone among Euro ‘statesmen saw as far back as 1922, says the newspaper, the need of abandoning the distinction of the “winners and losers of the world war.” It remained for Premier Mussolini the paper concludes, to show that the little entente could not and should not be hostile to Italy and central Europe and also to inject an element of pacification into the perpetual Balkan agitation by setting a prece- dent in making individual peace pac with and among the nations whic resulted from the splitting up of Aus- tria-Hungary. MISSING AVIATORS FOUND DEAD IN WRECKED PLANE Missing Aero Is Half Buried in California Marsh When Forced Down. MAIL SACKS ARE INTACT San Francisco, April 6 (By A. P.).— The bodies of Edward Neher, air mail pilot, and Alfred Schaller, his passenger, were found today, near Gustine, Calif., in the wreckage of the plane in which they started early Sunday morning from Fresno for San Francisco. The fliers apparently were instantly killed when they crashed into a marsh on the grazing lands of Merced county in the darkness of early morning. Word of the finding of the wrecked plane came from a cowboy. Fliers, who had searched for the miss- ing plane since Sunday, were rushed to the scene. In a depression on the rolling plains, half sunken Min the marsh, lay the wreckage, and beneath it were the bod- les of the fliers. The men were killed when the plane, forced to land on un- known territory at night, struck boggy ground and nose-flopped with sufficient violence to tear the wings from the fuselage and the engine from the frame. In Neher’s hand was clutched a flash light. His arm, hanging over the side of the cockpit, indicated that he had tried to illuminate the ground beneath the descending machine when the crash came. The pilot was crushed beneath the engine. The bodies were extricated with difficulty and removed to Merced for an inquest. Ten mail sacks, two marked for San Francisco, three for Portland, three for Seattle and two for Medford, Oreg lay in the mud beside the plane. They had been tumbled from their fireproof compartment, which was rent: asunder in the crash, and outside of a soaking, were undamaged. W. A. Bradley, Gus- tine postmaster, recovered the sacks for forwarding. The plane was northbound from Los Angeles and left Fresno in time to land about daybreak. Schaller was on his first. inspection trip of the offices of the an official.

PLURALITY OF 83,072 FOR THE NEW.MAYOR Chicago Full of Rumors as to Appointees; School Head May: Fight. Special to The Washington Post. Chicago, April 6—The election of William Hale Thompson as mayor of Chicago by a plurality of 83,072 over William E. Dever, Democrat, puts a damper on the presidential aspirations of Frank O. Lowden, former governor of Illinois. Complete returns from yes- terday’s balloting gives Thompson, 512,- 740; Dever, 429,668, and Dr. John Dill Robertson, the “people’s ownership” candidate, only 51,209. A total of #93,- 617 votes were cast, the largest ever polled in the city’s history. The cffi- cial canvass was started today and Mr. Thompson will take over the office of mayor on April 18. In Thompson’s alliance with Senator Charles S. Deneen, Roy O. West and former Attorney General Edward J. Brundage, the Republican county ma- chine, now controlled by Thompson, State's Attorney Robert E. Crowe and Homer J. Galpin, becomes linked with President Coolidge’s presidential aspira- tions. Thompson has already pledged the support of his organization tc At- torney General Oscar Caristrom for th? Republican nomination for governor in the April, 1928, primaries, against Gov. Len Small. Carlstrom Was one of the main supports of Thompson on the platform during the campaign. One of the chief results of the elec- tion probably will mean that Lowden will go into the Republican convention with a hostile delegation from Iilinois under the direction of Senator Deneen and the Thompson-Crowe-Carlstrom combination. Admits Deneen’s Control. This probability has been forecast State Senator Harold Kessinger, of Aurora, Lowden’s most enthusiastic supporter in the State. He admits that Deneen will have the delegates from Illinois and they will vote for Coolidge and then Deneen, if the President dc- cides not to be a candidate for reelec- tion. The anti-Lowden Republicans have seized upon Kessinger’s statement as an indication of Lowden’s weakness. They say that no matter how many delegates Lowden gets in other States, he will cut little figure in the national convention if he does not have formid- by .»|/able support in the delegation from his own State. Chief of Police Morgan A. Collins an- nounced today that he would not wait for Thompson to fire him, but wouid retire on a pension when Mr. Dever passes’ from the mayor’s office in about ten days. ° “Yesterday was my sixty-first birth- day,” said the chief. “I’m sorry we lost the election, but I am ready to quit. I am the first chief of police who. ever completed a regular four-year term, and it was an awful strain. Dur- former police captain, now on — from the city force to command county highway police, seemed favored by the new administration, but no def- inite announcement was made. Hughes is a qualified veteran who basks in the Thompson favor. Thomp- son’s old chief, Charles Fitzmorris, for- mer newspaper man, is still in Chicago, b--" it is understood he holds a highly paid position with a coal company and does not want to be chief again. William H. Stuart, political writer and old friend of Thompson’s, was put forward today as a possible new com- missioner of public works. About the city hall the general im- pression was that Health Commissioner Bundesen would be retained. because of the record he has made. Bundesen was appointed by Thompson and re- tained during the Dever regime. McAndrew May Fight. Thompson’s edict that William Mc- Andrew, superintendent of schools, must be ousted was met with defiance today by Julius F. Smitanka, acting president of the board of education. Thompson charges that McAndrew took “the Spirit of °76” out of the school- room by substituting histories contain- ing British propaganda. Supt. McAndrew’s term of four years runs until February, 1928. There is every indication that McAndrew and his friends in the school board intend to ight Thompson and to resort to the courts, if necessary, to keep McAndrew until his term expires. Mayor Dever announced that he will enter commercial life. He will not seek office again, he said. He has had sev- eral offers and has not decided which one he will accept. Lowden’s New York Headquarters Opened New York, April 6 (By A. P.).—Head- quarters of the Lowden-for-President association of New York were opened here today, marking the launching of a drive in New York State, New Jersey and Connecticut for the Republican nomination of Frank O. Lowden, former governor of Illinois, for the presidency. The headquarters, at 55 West Forty- second street, are in charge of Thomas P. Moffet, of Summit, N. J. James R. Garrett, treasurer of the association, said the presidency of the organization has been offered to a nationally known business man. Cecil Page, a lawyer and a Democrat, said Garrett, is first vice president; Arlo Wilson, Stamford, Conn., second vice president, and Mr. Moffet, secretary and manager. American Publication Barred From Mexico Mexico City, April 6 (By A. P.).—The Mexican government has barred this week’s Saturday Evening Post from dis- tribution in Mexicoé because of objec- uon to recent numbers containing arti- cles on Mexico by the American jour- nalist, Isaac Marcosson. Efforts are being made to have the government's order rescinded. Alexandrians Safe in China. Mr. and rs. Charles J. Deakl, of Alexandria, Va., yesterday received a cable from their son-in-law and daughr ter, Dr. MacClellan C. Fellows and Mrs. Fellows, of their safe arrival in Shang- hai, China, from Anking. Mrs. Fellows was before her marriage Miss Katherine Deahl, and was in the missionary field at Nanking for three years. fo My eden Ds _ Fagg ep sax tf Sd SAG - i STRIKE, Ol ITTING sits LEGATION Nicaraguan Liberals Face Flight or Surrender, Is Official View. DIAZ TROOPS PURSUING (By the Associated Press.) The Nicaraguan legation reiterated last night that its latest advices indi- cated the cause of the liberals oppos- ing President Diaz “is destined to end = in complete failure.” A statement issued at the legation declared that Dr. Juan Sacasa, the lib- eral leader, faces the alternative of surrendering to Diaz or fleeing into Mexico. “His army, composed_as it is of mer- cenaries, has gone on strike,” the state- ment declared. “Having had a vision of huge loot in case of success, but now realizing the impossibility of get- ting into the national treasury, many of the bandits who joined his forces are deserting in squads and refusing to. fight any longer for a cause which bids fair to be so unprofitable.” Managua, Nicaragua, April 6 (By A. P.).—Reporting further on his drive against the liberal forces in the inte- rior of Nicaragua, Gen. Viquez, con- servative commander, today notified the conservative government that his forces had captured a range of high hills be- tween Tierra Azul and Matiguas, vir- tually overlooking and surrounding the liberal Gen. Moncada and his retreat- ing forces. He stated that conservative reinforce- ments are coming up from Muy Muy, which was captured yesterday by the conservatives, and Tipitapa. The present position of Gen. Mon- cada and his supporting troops was de- scribed as dangerous strategically, since if he is forced back farther he scarcely, will be able to subsist, since the coun- try to his rear is waterless and vir- tually a desert or jungle waste land. Early estimates place the dead in yes- terday’s battle at 300. There is some uneasiness here as to the possibility of an attack by a de- ama of liberals in the vicinity of eon. ROME AND BELGRADE SEEK ALBANIA ACCORD ‘Direct Negotiations Put Two Nations Nedr Basis for Settlement. Belgrade, Jugoslavia, April 6 (By A. P.).—The Italian and Jugoslav govern- ments are declared by the local news- papers to be in direct contact, seeking a settlement of the difficulties over Al- bania. The basis of an accord is expected to be reached shortly, this to be followed by formal negotiations. Italy recently charged Jugoslavia with seeking to foment trouble in Albania and with massing military reinforce- ments along the Italian and Albanian borders. Jugoslavia countered by as- serting that Italy was seeking a pre- text to establish a military foothold in Albania, which lies across the Adriatic from the heel of the Italian peninsula. vod OST Bs a the hills and far away in a car | > aga through The Classified A S.

OR many months past maliciously false statements have been circulated affecting the credit of the companies producing the Star Car, the object being to discourage dealers from taking on the line and to frighten prospective customers from con- sidering this most worthy product. While these producing companies are per- task), I here and now pledge my entire per- sonal fortune, guaranteeing not only the financial responsibility of these companies, but the stability of policies and the integri- ty of the management as well. It is self evident that without an efficient dealer organization with a dependable out- let for its product, factories cannot properly function, and my plans for the future which I am briefly outlining as promised, have much to do with a well considered program, which program, greatly to the interest of Star Dealers and to the benefit of the Stockholders of Durant Motors, Inc., as well, J sponsor and intend to maintain at my own expense. Apropos of the foregoing— HE sale of automobiles on the much-dis- cussed deferred payment or installment: plan is today a most important factor and is largely responsible for the wonderful de- velopment of the motor industry in this country. Many plans are in vogue—some good, but all, when the customary charges are considered, very expensive. In the in- terest of Star Dealers my plan contem- plates a revolving fund of no inconsiderable amount, which I have set aside for the pur- pose of financing the sale of Star Cars on a deferred payment contract, the entire cost to the purchaser amounting to an interest e EGET ENE TE dees are ean semen” fee eke wwe eseg ean fectly sound and need no guarantee, in the | interest of Star Dealers who have during all this time been attempting to combat this insidious propaganda (a most discouraging charge on deferred payments at the rate of six per cent per annum—all other charges, including fire and exis insurance, to be borne by me. These obligations will be known as Ap- proved Acceptance Contracts, protected by a proper initial payment, the balance of the purchase price evidenced. by six deferred payments of equal amount. In plain language, the cost to the pur- chasers of Star Cars on the Approved Accep- tance Contract plan is approximately one- third of the present prevailing rates. °@ + +o ~ 7 In the interest of Star Dealers my plan further contemplates setting aside for their benefit a considerable block of Durant Mo- tors, Inc., stock purchased in the open market, the profits on this stock computed at the end of each year to be distributed to Star dealers based upon pre-arranged sched- ules and results obtained. There is to be no money investment or obligation on the part of the dealer under this arrangement. Many curious people will be pleased to know why these unusual personal contribu- tions and this great interest in Star dealers. The answer— Anything that will improve the condition of Star dealers will benefit the Stockholders of Durant Motors, Inc. And if these same curious people should want to know what most concerns me at this moment— My answer— That the name Durant shall stand for something better than a foot-ball in Wall Street. e . © * ¢ But why the Star to the exclusion of all others:in the Durant group? » Because the New Star Six, a brand new creation shown for thé first time today, is the greatest automobile with which I have ever been identified. And, by the way, the new Star Six has been selected as the nucleus around which Consolidated Motors, Inc. is being built, exactly as the’ Buick in 1908 was used as the nucleus and the keystone of the great General Motors. To avoid misunderstandings and to lessen if- possible the circulation of misleading reports, permit me to add—Consolidated Motors, Inc. has for its object the bringing together of such Independent Motor Com- panies as will be benefitted by the arrange- ment. As each Company is in excellent financial condition and as curtailment rather than expansion is contemplated, no public fin- ancing will be necessary. There will be less duplication of effort and energy, and fighting for business along reckless and wasteful lines now prevailing will at once be eliminated. The plan is constructive—the fundamen- tal purpose to stabilize, to an extent at least, America’s First and Greatest Industry. W. C. DURANT New York, April 7, 1927.

The United States, Japan end Great Britain will.probably agree, not merely to ask for reparations but as to the amount which should be asked for.” He gave details and further instances of reported looting an@ outrages on hospitals and other buildings and said it would be a mistake to suppose that these attacks were confined to the British as the forces which Chinese agitators had aroused were directed against foreigners indiscriminately. MacDonald Opens Debate. Debate on the Chinese situation was opened by Ramsay MacDonald, the labor leader and former premier, who declared that the sending of troops to Shanghai had considerably increased Great Britain’s difficulties in negotiat- ing with the Chinese and had not in- creased the security of British lives out- side of Shanghai. Mr. MacDonald asserted that no one could honestly say exactly what had happened at Nanking without making an investigation, and he strongly urged that the Nanking situation be ap- proached by the inquiry method. Advocating calling on the League of Nations to smooth out the difficulties in China, he declared that the only way to remove’ Chinese distrust of Great Britain was to go straight ahead with the recognition of the inde- pendence of China as a self-governing country. Declaring that not only China, but the whole of the East was akakening and that it would be necessary for the West to adapt itself to the changed conditions. He added: “It is a prob- lem of political adjustment. * * * The less we have to do with soldiers the better for us.” After Sir Austen had made his re- ply, various laborites expressed their views in opposition to the government’s policy. Then former Premier David Lioyd George, the liberal leader, arose and remarked that Sir Austen’s task was difficult and that he and his friends had no desire to embarrass the foreign secretary with further discus- sions in view of the pending note or negotiations on the Shanghai incident. Moderates to Win, T. Z. Koo Declares (By the Associated Press.) Condemnation of the Nanking out- rages and hope that proper reparation for them will be made were expressed yesterday by T. Z. Koo, Chinese pub- licist, representing the Shanghai Cham- ber of Commerce and other Chinese commercial bodies, in an address before the National Press club. There is a struggle in the nationalist (Cantonese), party he said, between the radical and moderate elements, but “China’s hope is centered on the mod- erates, who form the bulk of the party and our future nation builders will come from the ranks of the moderates.” German Ships Reject Munitions for China Berlin, April 6 (By A. P.).—Shipments of war material destined for China were parred today by the Association of Ger- man Shipowners at the East Asian union. The organizations decided not ae accept in German ports or for Ger- man vessels shipments of war material or ammunition for use in China. Foreign Minister Stresemann, answer- ing an interpellation in the reichstag last night regarding the alleged ship- ments of arms from Germany to China, deniéd that “any shipments were made with the knowledge and consent of the German government.” Nanking and Pukow Bombed by Aviators Shanghai, April 6 (By A. P.).—An air- plane of the northern Chinese forces, says a wireless message from Nanking, dropped three bombs today on Nanking and two on Pukow, across the Yangtze river from Nanking. Antiforeign feeling was reported to be still in evidence in Nanking, with looting of foreign residences continu- ing. Cantonese Delegates Tour Latin America Mexico City, April 6 (By A.

Some went struggled violently. While the raid was in progress fire started in the building formerly occu- pied by the Russian legation guard. A report was circulated, although its truth could not be confirmed, that the fire was started to prevent records from falling into the hands of the north- erners. Two fire brigades rushed to the building and extinguished the flames in a short time, although not before some ammunition in the structure exploded, wounding one Russian dangerously. quietly and othérs Officially there is considered to be a embassy proper, where the officers and residences of leading soviet officials are | situated, and the other part of the em- bassy grounds containing the Dahlbank the Chinese Eastern railway offices and the residences of many minor officials and other Russians. Theoretically the raid was said to be not on the embassy, but on the Eastern rallway building and the Dahlbank. To reach the railway building, however, the troops and police had to go several hundred yards along a road within the legation quarter. For this, permission was asked from and granted by the diplomatic corps. The railway is partly Chinese-owned. Among those arrested were the staff of the Dahlbank, a prominent Chinese agitator named Li Ta-Chao and three girl students. The Russians and Chinese seized by the raiders were Reliable information indicated that great distinction between the soviet | /yen (about $250,000,000), announced today, was brought up in the Japanese | | diet today. | “It is premature to say | situation is desperate,” the vice min- | ister of finance said in reply to ques- | tions on the suspension. “I think that the firm has merely decided to post- pone payment on its bills temporarily for various -business reasons rather than to suspend all payments, owing to its inability to secure the necessary money.” Although the finance ministry fre- | frains from discussing the question of the gold embargo, it is generally be- lieved that the latter’s removal must be further postponed because of the difficulties of the well-known firm of importers, exporters, manufacturers and shipowners’ managers. Several firms connected with Suzuki are reported to be insolvent, but others are known to be sound and although considerable adjustments are inevitable it is believed that there is no fear that Suzuki will fail. The temporary suspension firm, which controls from 60 to 70 large subsidiaries, affected the stock market and caused the yen to drop on the exchange. Glass-Cutters Riots taken to a police station. Numerous bundles of red flags, seven carloads of propaganda leaflets, a ma- chine gun, a trench mortar, bombs, about a score of rifles, thousands of Kuomintang (the Cantonese political party), flags and a quantity of’ am- munition were stated to have been taken from the raided buildings.

He recalled that 70 per cent of the Philippine exports , were t> the United States, and empha- | sized tk. progress which had been made under American leadership by | the islands, declaring that “‘they should , not lose sight of the fact that without t-e material aid extended to them and which they still need these conditions bagee not have existed.” “In. frankness and with the u'most friendliness, I must state my sincere conviction,” he said, “that the people yet attained the capability of full self- government. “How can this ultimate goal best be attaine*? Certainly not by constant -gitation and opposition. That policy but stands in the way of progress. In | governmental, as in social relation- | wholesome self-restraint. Demonstra- tion of the ability to carry on success- fully the large powers of government already possessed would be far more convincing than continued agitation for coiaplete independence.

The State Department continued yes- terday to withhold information as to the status of demands to be made upon the Chinese nationalists in regard to the Nanking outrages. While it Is known that there have been extensive exchanges with Minister MacMurray on this subject and that the definite de- cision not to submit the demands in the form of an ultimatum has been reached, it appeared doubtful today that the note was as yet ready for transmission to the nationalist authori- ties. The State Department refused also to comment upon the detention in Peking by the north Chinese govern- ment of two American journalists al- leged to have been actiye in the circu- lation of pro-Cantonese propaganda in northern China except that it was pointed out that all Americans are en- titled to diplomatic protection only to the extent of insuring them fair treat- ment and respect for the treaty rights Over the Territory Raided | London, April 6 (By A.

The correspondent says that the total | arrests made by the northerners were 22 Russians and 75 Chinese. A number of Cantonese uniforms were reported to have been found, the correspondent Marshal Chang-Tso-Lin, the Man- the raid, the correspondent says, has notified northern commanders of the raid and the accompanying arrests and seizures of material. “The main danger to the preservation of peace in Peking is now removed,” the marshal’s message was quoted as Saying. ‘‘Thoseggrrested will be tried and dealt with according to their deserts. It must be pointed out that these rebellious mischiefmakers who are responsible for the dissemination of bolshevism and the havoc wrought upon the people and the nations are unpardonable.” 3 Children Die in Fire.

P.).—wWhile foreigners today continued their exodus 'from the Cantonese-controlled sections of China and from the northern dis- tricts into which the Cantonese are threatening to extend their power, agi- tation definitely against Americans was reported to have broken out at Chang- sha, capital of the province of Hunan, in southern China. The agitation has taken the form of a strike and boycott of American goods, both going into effect at noon Monday. Messages from Changsha, which recently became the center of antiforeign agita- tion, say that the American consul there has gone aboard the United States gunboat Palos, on the Siang river. The labor and antiforeign manifestations in Changsha have resulted in the general evacuation of foreigners from Hunan, which will be completed shortly. Hankow, Kiukiang and Canton were the scenes of further preparation by foreighers against disorders, Hankow and Kiukiang being steadily evacuated by the last of the foreigners still re- maining in them. In Canton the de- fense of the British and French con- cessions at Shameen, an island, was further strengthened, and the United | States gunboat Helena and the two British and two French war vessels are lying off the island ready to land men should the necessity arise. PADEREWSKI ACCUSED OF INSULT TO KING Didn’t Stand on Platform as Governor General of Australia Entered. London, April 6 (By A. P.).—Ignace Jan Paderewski, former President of Poland and famous pianist, says a Mel- bourne dispatch to the Daily Express, has been accused by Lord Stonehaven, governor general of Australia, of insult- ing King George. The governor general, the dispatch says, bases his charge on Paderewski’s action in ignoring the governor’s request that he stand on the platform when Lord Stonehaven, who is the king’s vice regent in Australia, entered the hall where the pianist was giving a recital. Paderewski came on the platform only after the governor general had entered. Lord Stonehaven, in a message to Paderewski, is said to have informed him that his attitude was an insult to the king. Paderewski replied that the king was the last person he would think of insulting. Paderewski met and conversed with the Duke of York several time during the present tour of the king’s son. ENGLISH ECONOMIST ASKS LOWER TARIFF Sir George Paish Tells Cool- idge That Debt Revision Also Is Needed. (By the Associated Press.) Revision of the war debt settlement and the tariff rates and a reduction in reparations payments were declared necessary yesterday by Sir George Paish, English economist, who called on Presi- dent Coolidge. Sir George, who was presented to the President by Henry Chilton, counsellor of the British embassy, declined to say what answer he received from the Pres- ident, who has heretofore announced contrary views. , The Englishman described America’s war debt settlements as “very generous” when considered as purely commercial transactions, but in the long run they will not be beneficial to this country, he argued. Europe is unable to pay, he said, adding that the world was sick and permanent health could not be restored until all portions were improved. BOERSIG CONVICTED; SENTENCED TO DIE (CONTINTED FROM PAGE 1.) jury room upstairs and placed on a cot. Meanwhile the opposing attor- | neys decided to drop further argu- ments and to submit the case to the jury. The, other eleven jurors then gathered around Plaskett’s cot and began consideration of the case. The verdict was reached at 3:55 o’clock, 45 minutes after the jury was given the case. This was 30 hours after the start of the trial and a month and two days after the crime was com- mitted. When the foreman sent out word that a verdict had been reached, Judge Smith decided to take Boersig to the jury room so that he could hear his fate. This was done rather than have the sick juror come into the courtroom. While Boersig stood in the center of the room with his guard, C. C. Carr, parchment-hued lace. coat, tiered skirt and with exquisite collar and jabot of rlebacher Jeminine Apparel of Individuality WTWELVE-TEN TWELVETWELVE'F STREET and more the foreman, read the foliowing verdict: “We find Louis F. Boersig guilty of murder in the first degree and fix pun- ishment by death.” When Boersig descended the steps in the courtroom after hearing the sen- tence, his face bore the same enigmatic expression that it had borne through- out the trial. Newspaper reporters, who had been barred from the jury room, tried in vain to read the verdict in his eyes. ; Later, in the courtroom, Boersig was ordered to stand up while Judge Smith again read the verdict and imposed the sentence. His small and ordinarily fur- tive eyes were fixed on those of the judge and not once did he falter. Courtroom Hushed. Sheriff Harvey Cross had previously announced that anybody who made a demonstration when the verdict was announced would be arrested. Conse- quently, there was a hush over the court at the time. “Death is too good for that devil,” George Ridgeway said afterward. Visiting attorneys marveled at the swiftness with which the trial was con- ducted and showered praise on Judge Smith and the opposing counsel. Boersig’s death, assuming the sent- ence is carried out, will pay for the lives of the two Ridgeway children, but at the same time it will make his wife a widow and his four children orphans. Ridgeways In Court. Mrs. Boersig, who has remained faith- ful to her husband, was at the court- house throughout the trial. Always her eyes were damp with tears and there was a choke in her voice when she tried to talk. Both George Ridgeway and Mrs. Ridgeway, parerfts of the two slain girls, were in the courtroom when the verdict was announced. A look of satisfaction came to their faces as it was read. Boersig will be kept in the Fairfax jail for the time being. Although the jail is a fragile one, authorities no longer fear that an attempt will be made to lynch him. Representative R. Walton Moore, who lives in Fairfax, was an interested spec- tator at the trial. At its conclusion this afternoon he issued the following statement: “This case illustrates how the crimi- nal law is enforced in Virginia. A murder is committed on March 4 and the case is finally disposed of on April 6. The indictment was quickly found, the jury promptly selected. The case was carried on in strong contrast to the absurdities and dallying which s0 commonly mark criminal procedure in some other localities. “There was some talk of lynching following the commission of the mur- der, but the expertence in Virginia is that that sort of thing rarely occurs, due to the fact that it is well under- stood that official action will be swift and vigorous. Also due to the fact, among others, the percentage of serious crimes in Virginia is lower than in a great many other States.” te RAEI SRT A SEAT TT AT TT cc —— —————————————————— CY ‘WO rd / ) place your wants inthe | BIG MORNING NEWSPAPER “Today’s Results Today When you are need of desirable help —requiring immediate re- sponse—Post Help Wanted Ads will serve you quickly and eco- nomically.

Puff Paste. 2 cups of pastry flour. 14 cup of lard or Crisco. 14 teaspoon salt. 1 cup butter. Little ice water. Sift the flour into a bowl and cut into it the lard and the salt. Keep at the cutting process until these in- gredients are very, very finely mixed and then blend in the water; working it about with the hand very lightly until the whole is well blended. Then cut the butter into the paste just as the lard was cut into it, and when it is thoroughly blended work the whole very lightly up into a lump. Cover and place in the ice box overnight. When ready to use the next day roll out and bake at once. Have a very hot oven, especially at the bottom that the paste may rise before it sets. Apricot Turnovers.

Be Built Around Company’s Six. PLEDGES OWN FORTUNE TO ASSURE STABILITY No Public Financing, He Says; Resigns From All His Outside Interests. New ~ork, April 6 (By A. P.).—Will- iam OC. Durant tonight announced the organization of Consolidated Motors, Inc., for the purpose of merging several automobile companies. He pledged his entire personal fortune to guarantee the financial responsibility of the com- panies producing the Star car, and withdrew from the directorates of sev- eral corporations, not identified with the automobile business.

He explained that for the time being at least his invest- ment holdings in these various enter- prises would remain undisturbed. In addition to guaranteeing the financial responsibility of the com- panies producing the Star car and the stability of policies and integrity of management, Mr. Durant’s plans con- template setting aside for the benefit of Star dealers a considerable block of Durant Motors, Inc., stock purchased in the open market, the profits to be computed at the end of each year ahd distributed to dealers upon prearranged schedules and results obtained with- out any money investment or obliga- tion on the part of the dealer. “Many curious people will be pleased to know why these unsual personai con- tributions and this great interest in Star dealers,” he said. “The answer-- anything that will improve the condi- tion of Star dealers will benefit the stockholders of Durant’ Motors, Inc. And if these same curious persons should want to know what most con- cerns me at this moment—my answer —that the name of Durant shall stand for something better than a football in Wall street.” Mr. Durant also announced a new departure in deferred financing of au- tomobile sales under which the entire cost to purchasers will amount to 4 6 per cent annual interest charge on deferred payments, all other charges to be borne by him. Acceptance contracts are to be protected by a “proper initial payment” and the balance of the pur- chase price to be paid in six equal in- stallments. New York, April 6 (By A.

B. & A., the First Articulated, All- steel Interurban Electric Trains in America— Every 30 Minutes on the Hour and Half-hour INK into one of the richly up- holstered chairs of the new W. B. & A. trains, open your book or paper or your favorite magazine and you are prepared for the quickest, the cleanest and the most comfortable trip you can make from downtown Washington to the heart of Baltimore—on the railroad that is electrified all the way. At no increase in fare—the round trip is still $2.37*—the W. B. & A. now gives you the finest inter-city electric railroad trains in America; every train entirely new, de- signed and built for the W. B. & A., with the smooth riding comfort of ‘‘articulated”’ bodies, and the expensive appointments ordinarily found only in parlor cars. What cArticulation Means From the outside, each of these new articu- lated trains looks like two long cars. Ac- tualiy, each train is one very long unit, con- sisting of two car bodies mounted on three trucks instead of four. This means that noise, vibration, and the tendency of trains to sway when in rapid motion, are reduced to an absolute minimum. It means, also, that you can walk from one car to another in complete safety, steadiness and comfort, with no doors to open and no drafty, dusty vestibules to lurch through. Each Double Seat Cost $125 At such a price, of course, you have truly “the comforts of home’’—individual seats, arranged in pairs; tastefully finished in two- tone Frieze velours; deep springs in the base of every seat to absorb vibration; springs in the overstuffed cushions; easy backs—and room enough in front of you for the longest and weariest of legs. There are wide, curtained windows of plate glass to give you abundant reading light by day, and shaded individual lights above each seat by night, thus giving you, day or night, freedom from glare or shadow. Half the Train for Smokers In each of these two-car trains, one car is for those who smoke and one for those who do not. And the smoking car is furnished with exactly the same luxurious appoint- ments as the other car. Another feature, which applies to each car, is the electric heating system, encased in steel, running the full length on each side of every car, with a thermostat control that keeps the cars, throughout the winter, from. being either cold or uncomfortably warm. In summer, the swift movement of the trains and more than 50 broad windows and 20 ventilators in each train will keep you cool even on the most humid of days. Speed, Smoothness, Safety The new Westinghouse 500 horse-power motors give the trains a free rolling speed of 60 miles an hour. So smooth is the acceler- ation, however, and so steady and rigid are the articulated bodies, that you do not realize the rate of speed at which you are traveling. The steel frame construction of the cars, and the Westinghouse double airbrake system, which operates on all twelve wheels at once—‘‘twelve-wheel brakes” they are— give you the utmost in modern railroad safety. The First in America Naturally, we take some pride in the fact that the W. B. & A. is the first interurban electric railroad in America to give its pas- sengers the remarkable comforts and con- veniences of these high-speed, all-steel, articulated trains. It cost half a million dollars to build them and to provide them with these extraordinary facilities. Now they are all in service—and every 30 minutes, on the hour and half hour, one of them leaves on an express schedule-from Washington for Baltimore, and from Balti- more for Washington. ‘We can truly say, therefore, to everyone who travels between these two cities—and particularly to those who, driving their automobiles, encounter parking troubles, traffic congestion and occasional breakdowns—that you can save both time and money—and ride in vastly greater comfort—by using these new trains of the W. B. &. A. The full running time from dowr..own Washington to downtown Baltimore on the W. B. & A. is only 85 minutes- - - the quickest, the most direct and the most economical way to make the trip! Street car lines at the Baltimore Terminal will take you or transfer you to any part of the city or suburbs. Taxicab stands maintained at terminals in both cities. *Ten, twenty and fifty trip tickets at still lower rates: re] Washington, Baltimore &Annarvlis | Flectric Railroad Oo.

The program will be supplemented by the usual added features. “Fashions for Women” not only marks Esther Ralston’s first starring vehicle, but it lays claim to being one of the small group of pictures directed by a feminine hand or voice. It was filmed under the supervision of Dor- othy Arzner, the second woman ever to be appointed a motion picture di- rector. The story adapted from a French amusing tale of “zee mos beautiful woman in all Paree,” who disappears on the eve of the annual fashion show and her modistes are distracted be- cause without her their gowns will not be shown to advantage.

U. both from the standpoint of settings and of acting. Such a difficult play as “Caesar and Cleopatra” for a college production, has required a great part of this semester for the planning of the presentation. The Mimes are confident that they have surmounted all the difficulties and that their of- fering will meet with the enthusiastic response of all who have the fortune to witness it. The cast is as follows: Anne Wright- son, Wilford Edling, William Parsons, Lonnelle Davison, ary Griffith, ward Multon, Arthur Davis, Wilbur Bailey and Kenneth Yearns.

It comes in two forms—clear for ordinary use and translucent (ca- thedral) for use in skylights, sun- bath rooms, upper sashes and deco- rative purposes. It is cut, sized and installed exactly as ordinary glass. Scientists have proved definitely that Vita glass transmits an am fe quantity of these vital ultra-violet rays for health purposes. Search- ing transmission tests of Vita glass have been made by U, S. Bureau of Standards, Professor Pfund of The Johns Hopkins University, Proféssor Webb of Columbia Uni- versity and others. | Do not forget that light from indirect sources, such as skyshine and cloudshine, are rich sources of ultra-violet radiation. You need not sit in direct sunlight to get the benefit of these rays. What Vita glass does Vita glass transmits the ultra-violet rays of sunlight to the extreme limit of the sun’s spectrum, including the f i —— -———~ . VITA GLASS ‘ vital range. These latter rays are en- wey excluded by opdinary window or plate glass. Transmission tests of Vita glass Vita glass not only transmits the available ultra-violet rays under all conditions, but two-year tests show that its capacity for transmission does not lessen with age. The Smethwick School test The Smethwick Education Com- mittee, in England, conducted a test of Vita glass in the classrooms, as wninaiad with ordinary glass. 2 prare Grass “ 4 Batted at nf hes is js 7 eh te esa ‘a. besnchipoeh asin pe Web ROSES BO ee 2 BEE ae ade wet kn fate Ameo ean” ae LED LE eee ee wr Ee Se Pee yo r ‘ ee “% ~t . oe * . “ P q ? : Ben dt +)» ar " ‘ vgs - a ty : 7 j y ASS at last i OW the vital health rays, the cream of the sunshine, can enter your windows.

EVANS them should have cod liver oil before they are born. Doctors are very ingenious in getting medicine into babies. At least, it is rumored that babies think so. No doctor has ever )succeeded in giving medicine to any unborn babe by any except the mother route. and Dr. MacCollum have been investigating the possibilities of preventing rickets by giving the mothers cod liver oil. They experi- mented with rats. They gave the oil to female rats before they were mated, to pregnant rats and to mothers who were nursing their litters. The diet of these rate was one which causes rickets to develop in the young. Cod liver oil prevented this. Control ani- mals on the same diet, but getting no cod liver oil by the mother’s milk route, developed rickets. Some years ago Drs. Hess and Wein- Stock tried the same experiment and /came to the opposite conclusion. It Was their opinion that the baby must take cod liver oi] out of a spoon. Mac- Collum thinks faulty nutrition may have caused the bad results in the Hess In the MacCollum experi- ;ence it was found that the baby de- ' veloped rickets if he was badly nour- ished, even though he was getting cod liver oll or the vitamines therefrom in breast milk. | It is well to know that a poor state of nutrition and poor digestion ts able to cause rickets in a baby that is ‘(drinking enough vitamines and of the right kind. It is well to know that a mother can protect her baby against rickets by taking some cod liver oll during her pregnancy and continuing it while the baby-.is at the beast. But this demonstration runs parallel with another one of even greater in- terest. Prevention of rickets by tak- ing cod liver oj] is important; preven- ition by exposure to sunlight and fresh nir ie still more important. Steenbock has shown that exposure of a cow to sunlight and even to the proper kind of artificial ight will cause her milk | to contain vitamines. That's why the | milk from pastured cows is more whole- /some than from stabled cows. | The woman who approaches mother- ‘hood can protect her baby by getting (plenty of Nght and air. She can con- tinue this by getting plenty of light and air while she is breast feeding. Living in sunlight is preferable to tak- ing cod liver ofl. SYMPTOMS OF T. B. | P. A. T. writes: 1.

The lead is more ap} than. not to have been from the King and when so, two tricks can be made by playing the Queen. When the lead is not from the King, there is but little chance that Dummy's Queen can be made, as probably Third Mand has either the Jack or Ten in addition to the King and if the small card should be played from Dummy, Third Hand would finesse. Whether Closed Hand has Ace and one small or Ace and two small does not affect the situation; the Queen should be played from Dum- my in either case. In all of the above we have been supposing that Closed Hand's Ace was supported by nothing higher than a Nine. If, however, Closed Hand, in addition to the Ace, have an- other honor, the situation would be materially varied. Suppose, for exam- ple, the hands should be as follows: North, 8.Q-4 — H. 8-6-5-2 D.

WIVES OF TOMORROW Burnt C Y DEAR MISS M'DONALD: While I generally agree with your diagnosis of lover's troubles and remedy advised I can not let your remarks slip by in reference to men who fear marriage. I fully agree with them. Marriage is out of the question now-a-days by the majority of girls un- less they can make an “advantageous marriage.” That means money. By the time a young man earns and saves the amount of money to make for his wife an “advantageous” marriage the young man becomes middie aged. But, don’t you think for one moment that in the process the young man will be perfectly dormant. He will have a few love af- fairs which will be ecstatic while they last. It is no difficult feat for him to lose the girl of the “affair” because she will quit him very soon to accept @ chance with a fellow who is willing to go blindfolded into a “union.” Another thing a girl knowing a divorce brands no one these days to disgrace or social ostracism, feels if the thing is not a success she can obtain a divorce and try another or live on alimony. In my day, a girl was afraid of a divorce. I object to your attitude toward men today. Believe me, I have lived, have had sev- eral beautiful romances and if I dle tomorrow, the world owes me nothing.

LEVELAND, Ohio, April 6.—Basket- ball news was fired with a re- sounding report from a double- barrelled gun here today when directors of the American Professional basket- pall league met in annual executive session. The biggest player trade dn the league’s history, involving Wash- ington and Philadelphia and what might be called a divorce of amateur and professional rules were put through. Six stars of professional basketball were shifted by their owners, George Marshall, of Washington, and Jules Aronson, of Philadelphia, as the result of a conference preceding the regular league meeting. Without having ut- tered a single word about the matter previous to today, the two club owners agreed within fifteen minutes on @ trade which sends George Glasco, for- ward; “Tillie’’ Voss, center, and Teddy Kearns, guard; from Washington to Philadelphia in exchange for Chick Passon, forward, “Stretch” Meehan, center, and Harry Riconda, guard. And closely following cn the heels of this. unprecedented transaction the league directors voted to define an original s2t of playing rules for pro- fessional basketball, thus entirely elimi- nating the influence heretofore felt from the amateur sport. Both owners and the other magnates here seemed to believe that the teams involved in the player trade derived mutual benefit. In obtaining Passon, Meehan and Riconda, the Palace club’ has trengthened considerably on the offensive, especially so in the case of Passon, who finished the 1926- 27 season third hi~hest in the in- dividual scoring with a total of 367 voints for 41 games. None of the trio Philadelphia .got in the deal boasted of any figure rivaling that, but Owner Aronson stated that Glasco, Voss and Kearns would “make” his’ Quaker quintet in the next cam- paign. Aronson pointed out that Kearns’ services to Philadelphia should be al- most invaluable, since he will team up with the player alongside of whom he flashed the best basketball of his ca- reer while playing for Trenton ir the old Eastern league several years ago. That old buddy of Kearns is Tommy Barlow, the Quakers’ husky guard. When this pair worked together at Trenton it was said then that no other two guards in the country could com- pare with them. Marshall was as jubilant over his end of the bargain as was Aronson over his. The Washington president said: “Well, here’s a championship ball club at last. We ought to make them all look sick next year and give to Wash- ington its first professional basketball title. “‘Stretch’ Meehan is going to get that tap for us nine times out ‘CONTINUED ON PAGB 18, COLUMN 5.) pm a ee - a I NE Sa a hn a nD, Hise Re a ie i A anmamat natn. on : . o yy ~ . » 4 . ie | 1. | ; ’ “TRADED TO PALACE CLUB a > ae ; eae - POOOOIONE PFI IR SOO OOS SPIO OOOO OOOO” “CHICK’’ PASSON, star of the Philadelphia basketball team and third high scorer in the | league, who has been transferred to Washington in a deal involving three players on each of the two clubs. ’ Hornsby, the Stockholder, | Forces League Into Meeting Heydler May Obtain Injunction Against Player on Opening Day If Neither Star Nor Breadon Accedes.

Score at Half, 14-14; Foul Shots Figure; Play Tonight. Special to The Washington Post. LEVELAND, April 6.—*“They are those same incomparable Celtics.” That's what 7,000 partisan Cleve- land fans said here tonight as they filed out of Public auditorium after watching the New Yorkers take the first game of the worlds championship basketball series, by a score of 29 to 21. What the Celtics did tonight was ho different than what they have been doing for years. They saved their en- ergies until the late stages and then spurted out to the front néver to be headed. : Tonight, of course, their performance appeared.more brilliant than ever be- cause Of the importance attached to the contest, the victory gives the Celtics ‘@ distinct edge in the series, for the second game is to be played here and the third, and rest of the series if nec- essary will ve played on their home court in Brooklyn. For three quarters of the battle tonight the Cleveland tossers were in the running. Nat Holman once more came to the front as the Cel- tics’ leader, both in scoring points and holding down the opponents’ attack. Many a pass he cut off from the outstretched arms of a Cleveland player. When Holman was not weaving in and out, shooting and passing, Joe Popichick, the Celtics’ giant pivot man, was giving the fans a thrill with his. polished floor work and foul shooting. He succeeded in nine out of ten free throws to be the second leading scorer of the game. Husta and Nat Hickey, playing at guard instead of their usual forward positions, put Cleveland on an even footing with the ultimate winners dur- ing the first half, when each tallied a field goal and several 1-pointers. But in the second period their shots were inches short of the basket and consequently Cleveland had little left in its bag when Halman & Co. stepped out near the finish. The first half ended 14 to 14. In this period the New Yorkers also flashed one of their well-known rallies to deadlock the score after the Rosenblums had taken a lead by 5 points at one stage: Dave Kerr tossed in a field goal from the middle of the floor in the early minutes, which seemed to make the Rosies supremely confident and no doubt this spirit held them up in the fight for most of the game.

Wm. C. Fownes, Jr., Victor in 20-Hole Match. INEHURST, N. C.,,April 6 (By A. P.).—Despite a sore shoulder that for a time appeared likely to cause him to forfeit his match of today in the united North and South amateur golf tournament, George Voigt, Wash- ington amateur, who yesterday tuined in a 135 for a 36 hole qualifying rowund, today continued playing winning golf. Voigt defeated Eric Thomson, &t. Johns, New Brunswick, golfer, five and four, although under a handicap. in the first match play round of the tournament. The Washington boy caught cold in one of his shoulders last night. and for two hours this morning was under tle care of a physician and an expert mas- seur. Up to the time of his appearane it was doubtful whether he would play. While Voigt was having a com- paratively easy time in today’s 18 holes, William C. Fownes, jr., of Pittsburgh, president of the United States Golf association and former national amateur champion, was carrying his fellow townsman, Joseph Crawford, to the twentieth hole, Crawford won one up after a see-saw match. Crawford won the first hole and Fownes evened it on the third. Cravw- ford again went one up on the fourth, but it was evened on the sixth when Fownes sank a birdie four; then Craw- ford took the eighth with a birdie four and the ninth in par four when Fownecs’ approach was over the green. Fownes took the eleventh with a four, but everything else was halved until the eighteenth when Fownes sank a four to Crawford’s five. Crawford Fownes got into three traps. George Dunlap, jr.. New York, won four out of the last five holes in his match with B. W. Corkran, of. Baltimore, and won 3 and 1. Corkran was 1 up at the turn but met with trouble coming in, get- ting into three traps on the six- teenth. R. Wilson, of Southern Pines, had little difficulty holding an early lead over Donald Meigs, of Knoxville, Tenn.., to win 3 and 2.. The same thing oc- curred in the other matches, J. B. Ryerson, of Cooperstown, N. Y., defeat- ‘ing Donald Parsons, of Youngstown, 2 and 1; Eugene Homans, of Englewood, youthful Metropolitan junior champion, defeating E. L. Scofield, of New York, 4 and 3; John Dawson, of Chicago, win- ning from B. P. Merriman, of Water- bury, Conn., 5 and 4, and Ira Couch, of Chicago, turning back William Wallace, of Chicago, 6 and 5. Pairings for tomorrow: Dawson Vs. Homans, Wilson vs. Dunlap, Ryerson vs. Crawford, Couch vs. Voigt. Three-Cushion Title Regained by Reiselt Chicago, April (By A.

LISENBEE TO TWIRL | IN EXHIBITION GAME; _ a 5 HOME RUNS MADI Three . Circuit C louts| Outmatch Two by Washington. Thurston Goes Route; Speaker and Goslin Hit 4-Baggers. By FRANK H. YOUNG. UGUSTA, Ga., April 6. — The Nationals and Giants bid adieu to the sunny South here this af- ternoon with a thrilling battle, which was captured by the Giants, 6 to 5. One of the largest crowds which has ever witnessed a local game was on hand. This makes the series count 6 to 2 in the Giants’ favor, with but four more games to be played. The Nats now must cop all of the remaining ones to get an even break. Pitcher Hollis Thurston and Virgil Barnes went the route for their respec- tive teams. - Five homers featured the game, with Terry getting two and Roush, Speaker and Goslin one each. The two Wash- ington circuit clouts came in succession in the sixth. Rice, Goslin, Speaker and Harper contributed the fielding high lights, all thrilling the crowd with bril- liant plays. The Giants were always in front, but never far enough ahead to be out of danger. Neither team threatened in the opener, but Terry, first up in the next frame, broke the ice for the Giants with a homer into the stands in right center. When Harper singled and stole second, it looked as though the McGrawmen were starting an old-fashioned rally, but a double play followed. * »> In the Nats’ half Judge missed kKnot- | ting the count by only a foot or two) when he crashed a liner into the same | stands which was foul. | The third inning saw Thurston weak- | en. With one out, Tyson drove past Goslin for three bases and Lindstrom registered Tyson with a double to cen- ter. Then Roush deposited the ball in the center field stands for another four- bagger. This made the Giants 4 up. Stewart opened the Nats’ fourth with their first safety but it proved a wasted effort, for Speaker, next up, hit into a double play. In the next session, the Nats cut the Giants’ lead in half, scoring a brace of runs on singles by Judge, O’Neil, Thurston and Rice, the latter two each driving a runner Across | the plate. The Giants got one of these runs back in the sixth, it being made on | successive hits by Hornsby and Terry | and Harper’s sacrifice fly. Reeves was | charged with an error in this frame but it did no harm. Then Speaker (CONTINUED ON PAGE 19, COLUMN 4.) | Hornsby Piss Today; " New Infield to Be Seen in Action.

Augusta, Ga., April 6.—The absence of Manager Harris from the Nationals’ line-up has been noticeable during the past few days. The team has failed to exhibit the spirit that characterizes its play with the playing manager per- forming at second base. Stewart is a peppy player, but the fact of the matter is that the other infielders have become used to having “Bucky” out there cheere ing them on and directing the play.

i L Li Lit mn Ki ing Scores by Nose Over Algol in Opener. Ed Pendleton Barely » Lasts to Capture - Fourth Event. by SHIRLEY L. POVICH. Sports Editor, The Post. T was a Tip Top day at Bowie. The benevolence of the weather man moved 10,000 fans to attend the program yesterday, and both form and long-shot players enjoyed their innings. Tip Top piso describes the Princeton handicap, the feature event of the day, for it was Mrs. Payne Whitney's 3-year: old filly of that name which won the race by a head in a tip-top finish at a tip-top price. A field of seven started in the 6-furlong race. Contemplate, the favorite, was beaten im a driving finish by the Greentree filly, with the second choice, Artillery- man, a length farther back for third place. The thousands at the track were loath tO risk a wager on Tip Top in view of his two prior defeats of the last few days, but he found some support at the odds of 7 to 1, and was aided by a per- fect ride by Jockcy Watters, who rated the winner along easily and dropped his mount’s head in front at the proper time. Tip Top was always in a contend- -ing position and Watters let Pleas- ant Smiles and Contemplate cut @ut the early pace, laying third with the ultimate winner for most of the route. Pleasant Smiles fold- ed up rounding the turn for home, and it was at this point in the race that Contemplate suffered ill tuck. Swerving at the turn, Pleasant Smiles Carried Contemplate to the outside, causing the latter to lose much ground, but Stott brought the Flamingo Farm. entry to the center of the track again and drew out to a lead of more than two lengths. Watters, just a bit tardy with Tip Top, made his bid at the six- teenth pole and outgamed the tiring Contemplate to the finish. The day started auspiciously for the long-shot players who pinned their faith: on the Pastime stable’s Linen King, which showed rare courage to “win the 4-furlong dash for 2-year-olds by a nose from tke Algol. Birdwood, the odds-on favorite, finished third not far back. Linen King | Donetta lacked her usual early speed, but gained fast on tie outside. McLean stable’s | Que en Was tnore than 12 to 1 in the mutuels. | Linien King got away poorly and was | forced to go around the leaders turn- ing into the stretch, Birdwood, on the rail, broke fast, closely followed by Algol. These two outdistanced the field to the stretch turn sixteenth pole Algol, with Lang up, had | worn down Birdwood but was uae to withstand the determined rush of | Linen King. which, under a hustling fide -by Ellis, gained at every stride in the center of the track and nipped Algol at the wire. The gelding Wiid Aster, almost backed into favoritism, tow-roped his field in the later stages of the second race and was the winner, eased up, of the 6%-furlong race for older horses. The Seer was 2144 léngths back to take down second lace, third going to Donetta, a ong shot. “Red” Harvey always rated Wild As- ter im a contending position and fol- lowed the pace closely as Lemons led the pack. Wild Aster disposed of the leader long before the stretch was reached, with Washington hanging on with good courage.

Shapiro led off with a single; Lizinsky coaxed Corson for a walk; Capt. Rankin doubled to right and Shapiro ambled over the plate with the home team’s lone run for the day. Coach Sills’ “charges practically sewed up the victory in the fourth, when Clark, who had relieved Quinn, became unsteady and put Hartigan and Korson on the paths by his wildness, Kennedy came through in the pinch with a tusty triple to deep left that cleared the sacks. He, himself, counted a min- ute later on an infield out. . Korson, the slim pitcher of Devitt. who, in addition to his other fine traits, reposes in his pitching ability the ut- most confidence, was master of the situation throughout. Twice Eastern seriously threatened, and twice the hopes of the home nine were blasted to skreds by the Devitt hurler. Maseno opened the seventh with a looping Texas leaguer over short. Kor- son developed a streak of wildness and passed both Doerr and Hook to fill the bases. It was a ticklish si tuation, but Korson steadied down and struck out the next three batters to face him.

HOWING surprising form behind and pitchers for a total of twelve hits, Cen- 5 victory who had started for Maryland, was holding Central well, but was forced to leave the game in the last half of the fifth when he injured his ankle sliding into second base, The score at the time stood 3 to 2 against him, and Bassett and Bobalitz who, in turn suc- ceeded him, were assailed vigorously by the Central batters who garnered the remaining ten runs off the pair in addition to eight hits. .The Central pitchers at times were well-nigh invincible. Duffy breezed through six innings, allow- ing but six hits, while Stevens proved the sensation of the game, by taking the mound the last three frames to have but ten men face him, striking eight of the ten out, walking one, while the other man reached first on an error. Duffy held Maryland scoreless unt) the fifth inning when they managed to tally two runs, duplicating the feat itn the sixth and adding their last marker in the ninth. Before Phipps left the game Central had gotten to him for four hite and three runs, and immediately pounced upon Bassett, his successor, to pound in one run in each the sixth and sev- eath innings and three in the eighth, on a total of four hits. Bobalitz, who Was sent in to replace Bassett in the ninth, was pounded for four hits and five runs, While the game was sensational in spots, it was also slow, due to the pour condition of the playing field because of recent rains.

"Shuffilng” Phil Douglas, former pitcher, was picked to be the rookie’s roommate. Phil had not a: yet report- ed and the youngster was regaled with wild tales of Phil's escapades, of the men he had murdered, the big gun and knife he carried, of his uncertain tem- per, and how only the influence of | the Giants kept him from the clec- | tric chair. | As a matter of fact, Phil was the, mildest of men: and wouldn't harm | a fly. The gang got hold of Douglas whey he arrived and he fel) in with the joke. The first sight the youngster had of His supposed roo'imate was in the clubhouse. Phil was standing looking out of the window with a gi- gantic butcher knife and gun pro- truding from his back pockets. C- Graw, who was in on the joke, timidly asked Phil a question and Douglas turned on him with a flood of abuse. — The rookie, with his eyes popping out of his head by this time, won- dered if he talked to McGraw like that what his fate would be as his room- mate. He packed - that night, left town and has never seen since. iGepyright, 1087, Publishers Byudicate | Merchants’ League Listed to Open May 2 The opening game of the Merchants baseball league will be played May 4. with Chestnut Farms o ng the Thompson's Dairy team, ber and Ross, an’'s undry and Judd «& Detwiler ‘are also pence py by nines Newly elected officers of the league are iam Piester, president, and li J.

Cra ts High School markswomen won the 1027 interscholastic rifie char pionship of the United States, according to an. announcement from the National Rifle association, under the auspices of which the shoot was conducted. The Central team won with a score of 1,483, leading the Western High School team of Washington, second place winner, by 4 points. Cathefine Austin, of Central, won high honors for her team with 296 points. and Virginia Sheffield, of West- ern, was high scorer of the match, win- ning a possible in the first stage and dropping 1 point each in the last two stages. The fact that there were no “ams outside the city competing in the match is explained by the fact that the title was a new one this year. The small entry list does not, however, detract from the credit of the local winners as their past records have proved them to be the leading giris’ rifle teams in the country. Much credit for the victory belongs to Miss Louise G. Hart, Central ccach, and | instructor at “h Mrs. F. Carl Worthmer, Western.

King, of Utah, Panking Democratic member of the Sen- ate District committee, held a long con- ference with the District commissioners Yesterday, at which were canvassed Many policies of local administraticn. The senator said that he recom- mended to the commissioners that the traffic bureau be placed under the po- jee department as a bureau instead of being independent as at present. This is said to be in line with recommenda- tions that will be made by the bureau of efficiency in its final report on “he traffic signal scandal investigation He expressed himself as favorap.e to increasing the powers of the comu‘s- sioners, so as to relieve Congress of small details of local government.

There was considerable discussion in #he District building yesterday over a eecret session held Tuesday by the commissioners, Representatives Thomas iL Blanton and E. W. Gibson, George W. Offutt, head of the local branch of the American Automobile association, and Theodore P. Noyes. The commissioners would not @uss the conference, even refusing to answer questions about it, although it was admittedly about the transaction | of public business. Blanton is said to have taken the Mitiative in calling the meeting, the topic of which is said to have been an appeal to the commissioners by friends of Assistant Director of Traffic M. O. Eldridge to have the latter reinstated as director of traffic, from which post he was demoted following the traffic al scandal probe. % is reported that the commissioners feel they have made final disposition of Eldridge’s case and that they do not feel justified, especially in view of the réliminary report of the bureau of ef- Selency, in relaxing their search for @ successor to Eldridge as director of traffic. Former U. S. Employe Loses Case 3 ‘Times The circuit court yesterday got rid of ® mandamus case by an opinion such as was given each of the two times this case previously was presented. This is the case of Miss Nannie L. King, 1321 M street northwest, who sought to com- pel Dwight F. Davis, Secretary of War, to reinstate her as an employe of the War Department. Justice Adolph A. Pivelaliupg, Udcvided tho cace agalucot Mise King once. Justice Siddons decided the case yesterday, even though he had once before decided against Miss King. Each time the case was presented As- sistant District Attorney Leo A. Rover, as counsel for Mr. Davis, contended Miss King waited too long to ask the courts for relief and each time the court sustained this contention. Miss King was separated from the service February 23, 1920, and, according to the records, waited about six years be- fore coming to court. Associated Charities Plea Brings Replies Responses to the letters of appeal sent out by Corcoran Thom, as chair- man of the joint finance committee of the Associated Charities and Citizens Relief association, for funds with which to carry on the family care and relief work of those agencies for the current year, were received yesterday at the Social Service House, 1022 Eleventh street, making the total number of con- tributing members to date 3,045. The Easter campaign now in progress ig under the direction of a “board of strategy” of which Cleveland Perkins is the chairman, and which includes Cole- man Jennings, Charles C. Glover, jr., William J. Flather, jr., Newbold Noyes, Arthur Hellen, Dwight Clark and Frank- ‘lin Ellis, all of whom are members of the board of managers of the Asso- clated Charities. Assessor Richards Says Values Sound William P. Richards, District tax as- eesaor, yesterday defended his new valu- ation of real estate for purposes of as- sessment against the attack made on it Tuesday evening by a resolution of the board of directors of the Washington Chamber of Commerce. “Our valuations are merely echoes of community values placed on property by sellers and buyers,” he said. “It has been three years since we have had an assessed valuation based on sales. In the meantime prices have been climb- ing and there have been buildings erected to the combined value of $100,- 000,000. Building values are reflected in ground values. Assessments follow evidence of worth and are not based on imaginary values or on what interested persons think they should be.” Brightwood Women Object to Smokers Despite the fact that the Brightwood Oitizens association meets in one of the most spacious halls frequented by any eitizens’ association of Washington, and one therefore difficult to fill with smoke, women members filed complaint that the men drive them away from the meetings with cigar smoke, in a letter yesterday to James G. Yaden, president of the Federation of Citizens Associa- tions. .» The letter even hinted the possibility of a move to form a women’s associa- tion in Brightwood, following the pres- wedent establisied by Georgetown ‘women. William McK. Clayton, who, at was said, has a capacity of eleven os &® meeting, was named the chief offender.

The man is Samuel Schikoff, who,was con- victed on a charge of unlawfully pos- sessing liquor and was fined $100 by Judge George H. Macdonald in police court on December 8, 1926. Schikoff’s case involves two questions. One is his right to change his mind and the other his constitutional right to have a jury pass on his guilt or in- The Court of Appeals was called on ° nocence. When he first was arraigned May 3, he demanded a jury trial. At that-time he had a different attorney from the one who now represents him. Later he withdrew the demand for a jury trial and decided to be tried by the judge. He appeared again December 8 with a new attorney and announced he had: changed his mind about being tried by the judge and~demanded a jury trial. The court refused to allow him to change his mind and he was tried and convicted before Judge Mac- ‘donald, . Through Attorney T. Whelan, who is Schikoff's latest counsel, the appellate court was asked to allow a writ of error to the police court for a review of the right of Judge Macdonald to refuse to allow Schikoff to change his mind about being tried without a jury. A jury trial, Whelan contends, is To Be Given Tonight The Washington Medical and Surgi- cal society will hold its thirteenth an- nual banquet at 7 o'clock tonight at er, is in charge of ar- Dr. Ross ern, Philadelphia nose and throat specialist, will be the guest of honor.

Snowden is chairman HOND SALES TO PROVIDE FUNDS FOR BONUS LOANS Mills Declares Securities in Life Insurance Reserve May Be Used. M’CARL RULING STANDS The problem confronting Director Frank T. Hines, of the veterans bu- reau, as to what means shall be taken to insure a sufficient fund for making loans to veterans, has been solved, it was learned yesterday. Acting Secretary of the Treasury Mills said that, in case additional funds, be- yond the moneys that accrue each month to the government life insur- ance fund, are needed to advance loans to veterans, such funds will be pro- vided by the temporary sale of bonds that now belong to the life insurance fund. Before the veterans’ loan matter pre- sented difficulties through the refusal of banks to make loans, the Secretary of the Treasury had invested moneys belonging to the life insurance fund in bonds and other securities. Mr. Mills said that a sufficient num- ber of the bonds could be sold tempo- rarily to advantage, and could be re- purchased. It would merely be a mat- ter of reinvestment, he said. It was indicated therefore that it would not be necessary for the veterans bureau to request from Comptroller General McCarl a reconsideration of the matter of transferring to the life insur- ance fund $25,000,000 from the bonus certificate fund, since sufficient moneys for loans could be insured in this man- ner. POLICEMAN IS CITED IN $10,000 LAUGH SUIT Fletcher Says Owens Arrested Him on Belief He Was Being Derided. Patrolman Frank B. Owens, of 1406 Girard street northwest, yesterday in a suit in circuit court, is aksed to pay $10,000 damages for the alleged mis- take of thinking that Marshall Fletcher, of Chevy Chase, Md., laughed at him on March 11 last while he was directing traffic at McKinley street and Connecti- cut avenue northwest. Through Attorney Fred B. Rhodes the plaintiff says that Owens’ mistake re- sulted in his arrest on a charge of dis- orderly conduct, together with a charge of assaulting Owens. He was acquitted in police court on April 1, Fletcher says Owens approached him, Fletcher says, and accused him of laughing at the manner in which he was directing traf- fice. Fletcher says he told Owens that he was not laughing at him, and that Owens replied by calling him a liar.

PARENTS ARE REQUIRED AT SOCIAL FUNCTIONS Boy Patrol Continued as of Real Value—Suspension of Miss Parks Upheld. Stricter supervision of approved high school fraternities and sororities, di- viding between home and school re- sponsibility for the conduct of the or- ganizations, was provided in action taken by the board of education yester- ay. Regulations adopted forbid organiza- tions already approved by the board from conducting initiations of any kind or transacting any business other than routine, at meetings not attended by at least one faculty supervisor, under pain of withdrawing approval. Before meetings of any nature may be held, the board ruled, student or- ganizations must submit plans to their faculty advisors, and receive their sanc- tion. Likewise a report of the meeting must afterwards be made to these ad- visors. Chaperons for Socials. Although the board provided that attendance of only one parent was necessary at purely social meetings held in the home, it was decided that social functions held in other than either the home or school must be chaperoned by three parents of three different members of the organization. These must agree to the arrangement beforehand, in writing. Reporting on the success of the system already in vogue in the schools, Superintendent of Schools Frank W. Ballou said: “The placing of fraternities, sororities and similar organizations among the students of the various high schools upon an approval basis has been gen- erally satisfactory. The students have shown a most commendable spirit in meeting the requirements and modi- fications which seemed necessary to make their organizations conform to the desirable standards.” He explained that additional regula- tions are necessary to set up a more definite method of supervision by the school and a c’*arer definition of the division of responsibility for supervision between the home and the school. Patrols Lauded by Ballou. Requested by the District commis- sioners to submit an opinion on the continuance of schoolboy patrols, be- cause of accidents to two of the stu- dents enrolled, the board unanimously opposed termination of the project. Reading letters in support of his state- ments, Dr. Ballou told the members he believed the patrol of real value, both in protecting classmates from passing motorists, and affording training in responsibility. The board upheld the suspension of Miss Adella Parks, of the Mott school, “for conduct unbecoming a teacher,” although it offered her a “trial” after hearing her petition for the lifting of the suspension. In a statement issued following dis- position of the case, and approved by the board, President Charles F. Carusi directed that teachers in all the schools be informed that the board of educa- tion is in no sense a court, and may suspend a teacher without proving her guilt after the manner of a court of law. First Duty Is to Pupils. “The first duty of the board of edu- cation,” he said, “is toward the chil- dren, whose morale will be seriously in- jured if they are forced to continue under a teacher who is publicly known to have been guilty of misconduct, and the protection of the children can not depend upon the willingness or unwill- ingness of the injured party to come forward.” Dr. Ballou announced the appoint- ment of Dr. George K. Anderson, of George Washington university; Mrs. Howard Lincoln Hodgkins, Mrs. Maude Howell Smith, Harold Philips and the Rev. Edmund H. Stevens as judges for spring plays to he presented in the high schools.

In adopting the report of the build- ing and grounds committee the board recommended that the municipal arch- itect prepare plans, specifications and estimates for remodeling the entrance, and storage vaults of the Franklin ad- ministration building, made necessary by the widening of Thirteenth street. The municipa! architect was further requested to draw plans and make con- tracts for the installation of fireproof curtains, together with grid and sprin- kler systems, in the auditorium of the Central and Dunbar High schools. This lack was cited in the report of the fire marshal. Allotment of $1,410 was authorized for the placement of names on nineteen school buildings not now carrying a name or designation. A $13,000 orga was authorized for the McKinley Tech- nical High school, and $2,000 allotted for transferring portables from the Truesdell school and the Allison school site to the Garrison school. $25,000 Verdict Set Aside in Injury Case A verdict of $25,000 damages awarded February 7 to Margaret E. Lettow, 7-year-old daughter of Charles H, Lete tow, against W. A. Simpson, dairyman, for alleged personal ajuries was set aside yesterday by Justice Siddons itn circuit court.
