WARNING BY SOVIET. -) FOLLOWS THREATS TD RAID CONSULATE Shanghai Police Sur- round Building; Bar Exit and Entrance. 21 FOREIGN WARSHIPS GATHER AT HANKOW Chinese Exceeded Authoriza- tion of Envoys in Embassy Raid, It Is Asserted. Shanghai, China, April 7 (By A. P.). Police, assisted by white Russian vol- unteers, late today surrounded the soviet consulate in the international settlement, with orders to prevent any one from entering or leaving the prem- ises. No reason for this action was given, but it was stated that there was no present intention to raid the consul- ate. Among the visitors whom the police held up was the Chinese commissioner of foreign affairs, who was informed that he would not be allowed to enter unless he consented to be searched. The commissioner refused to permit this and left. The possibility of the removal of the soviet embassy at Peking to Hankow, the seat of the Cantonese, or nation- alist government, was suggested today by Wilhelm F. Linde, soviet consul here, as a result of yesterday’s raid by northern soldiers on buildings attached to the Russian embassy. May Move Soviet Embassy. Mr. Linde said that such a removal was not impossible in discussing the incident with newspaper men after he had called on the Norwegian consul | general, dean of the diplomatic corps in Shanghai, to announce that he would hold the consular body respon- sible if the soviet consulate here were raided also. Rumors have been in cir- culation that such a raid was contem- plated. The soviet consul general also declared that if the Peking raid were carried out with the approval of the diplomatic corps, it would set a prece- dent that would endanger the founda- tion of diplomatic prerogatives. In this that permission for the entry of the Chinese troops and police into the legation grounds at Peking had been granted solely by the dean of the dip- lomatic corps and not from all the mem bers. While interest continued to center here on the international possibilities | of the Peking raid, in so far as it may | cause serious repercussions in Moscow, foreigners in various sections of China are steadily evacuating the areas where antiforeign agitation has been spread- ing. | ‘Hankow, scene of a growing tense- /ness, was the center of riotous anti- foreign outbreaks over last week-end, resulting in further plans for a rapid departure of the comparatively few re- maining foreigners. “Situation grow- ing worse steadily,” was a wireless mes- sage received from there today. Lawlessness Increasing. With lawlessness in the city appar- ently increasing, the commander of the United States Yangtze river patrol is urging Americans still in the city to leave as soon as possible.

SENTENCED 5 HOURS AFTER KILLING WIFE Slayer Begins Life Term in Afternoon for Crime Com- mitted at 7. A. M. Milwaukee, Wis., April 7.—Scarcely had the body of Mrs. Radich, 26, be- come cold today when her husband, Vaso, 28, was on his way to Waupun to serve a life sentence for her mur- Ger. The speedy justice for which Wisconsin courts have become famous, was highly amplified in this case. At 7 a. m. Radich met. his estranged wife on the street, hacked at her throat with a dagger until he severed the jugular vein. At 8 a. m. he was arrested a short distance from the scene of his crime. At 9 a. m. he had confessed to the police, and at 9:30 a. m. he was formally charged with murder. At 10 a. m. he was arraigned in dis- trict court and bound over to munici- pal court. At 11:30 his confession to the dis- trict attorney was read tn municipal court, and at noon .Judge George Shaughnessy sentenced him to life to Waupun prison. Radich told the court he feared his wife wanted to divorce him. “I just wanted to scare her,” he said. At 3:25 p. m. Radich was getting his prison haircut at Waupun. He still had bloodstains on his hands as he was being registered at the prison. eNO RED A. CUBA — Reduced round- tri * ————— —— —— —*33 pa, 83862 56; — $72.88. ———— — Const’ Lin i street northwes t.

New York, April 7 (By A. P.).—Tele- vision, a scientists’ dream ever since the telephone was invented half a century ago, became an actuality to- day when Secretary of Commerce Her- bert Hoover spoke over the telephone as heard in the Bell Telephone Labora- tories here. Not only were Secretary Hoover and a score of others in Washington seen in New York by telephone wire, but a radio program was broadcast over the laboratories experimental station, 3XN, at Whippany, N. J., and moving likenesses of the performers as well as the sound of their voices were put on the air and transferred to a screen in this city. Officials of the American Telephone & Telegraph Co. announced that today’s demonstration marked the results of years of research and ex- perimentation and that study would be continued with the purpose of im- proving television to a higher state of efficiency. They acknowledge that at present the seeming miracle of seeing by wire in Washington and was seen as well |. and wave length was not at a stage where it could be put to such general use as the telephone. The necessary equipment precludes that possibility for some time to come, they said, but the feat of television itself has been accomplished and indications are that “it is likely to have a real place in the world’s work of distant communl- cation.” The images of today’s speakers in Washington and Whippany were thrown on to both small and large screens. On the screen designed for the telephoner’s use. solely the pictures were exceed- ingly clear, easily recognizable as like- nesses of the person at the other end of communication. On -the large screen, about 114 by 3 feet, the results were not so clear. Es- pecially was this noticeable when Sec- retary Hoover’s image was transferred from the small scréen on which it showed clearly while he talked with President Walter S. Gifford, 6f the tel- ephone company, to the large screen for the benefit of the half a hundred (CONTINUED ON PAGE 17, COLUMN 1.) “BOXOF-GOLD™ THICK TAKES SAVINGS OF LIFE Tailor Loses $1,080 to Con- fidence Man, Chemist and Miner From West POLICE SEEK SWINDLERS “Oh, those ditty fakers.” Nathan Lewis, a tailor, 506 Eleventh street southeast, thus upbraided three confidence men yesterday after they had cleverly tricked him of $1,080, his life savings, by selling him a box of “gold.” The swindle was a sequel to the old “gold brick game.” One of the men, who said he came from Baltimore, visited Lewis in his bghog-"Wediiesday, making inquiries about a shop next door, which he said he intended. to rent as a radio supply store. In a lengthy conversation the trickster gained Lewis’ confidence. Shortly after noon yesterday the other saying they were seeking the “Balti- morean” to sell him a box of gold. The two represented themselves as a miner and a chemist from Arizona. The other trickster appeared and the box of shiny gold circlets was opened. The “chemist” produced an alcohol lamp and tested the gold, saying it was worth $4,000. The “miner” agreed to sell it for that price to the “man from Baltimore,” who requested Lewis to purchase a part of the “gold.” The tailor agreed and hurried to a nearby bank, withdrawing his life savings. Upon his return he was handed the box as security while the other three left to obtain the remainder of the $4,000. After waiting 20 minutes he tele- phoned his brother in Baltimore, who told him he had been tricked. He frantically called the police. Detective Dick Mansfield, of the central office, responded. He opened the box and found the “gold” to be a number of small circlets, about the size of a 5-cent piece, which are used as inner stoppers on ketchup and soft drink bottles. Mansfield said he would have. the circlets analyzed and-if they were found to contain a part of gold no criminal action could be taken as Lewis had bought them for gold. The detective and the victim went to Bowie race track to search for the three young swin- dlers. Lewis said he had known the “Balti- morean” for a day and the other two for but 20 minutes. Although he ap- peared calm at police headquarters, he said, “Every time I think of it I get sick.” Wales, Backed by Fair Bettors, Wins Race Oxton, Nottinghamshire, England, April 7 (By <A. P.).—The Prince of Wales rode his own mare, Lady Doon, to a thrilling victory in the South Notis point-to-point steeplechase here today. The 314-mile race was run over a heavy course. The prince lost the lead once, but re- gained it and won ‘handily, cheered wildly by women bettors who had backed Lady Doon. “Old Hickory’s” Hair Is to Be Auctioned New York, April T (By A. P.).—One of the most personal “possessions of “Old Hickory” will go under the auctioneer’s hammer some time between April 13 and 19, when the flowing blond hair of Andrew Jackson will be put on sale by the American Art association. The hair is part of the collection of Jackonia which Andrew Jackson 4th, of Los Angeles, inherited from his for- bears.

POLICE GIVE ASSISTANCE John Hinckley, of 1336 Nineteenth street northwest, suffered a sprained ankle, and Constantin Danielopol, of the Roumanian legation, suffered a wrenched leg, yesterday afternoon in rescuing Miss Lydia Archbold, daugh- ter of Mrs. Anne U. Archbold, society leader, when her horse bogged down in deep mud while crossing a ford in Rock Creek and was unable to extricate it- self. They were returning on _ horseback from playing polo at Hillendale, the Archbold residence on Reservoir road, and Miss Archbold was galloping a short distance ahead when the ford was reached.

Dantelopol re- mained mounted and the three finally made their wey across the ford. United States park police arrived and aided in rescuing the horses, one of which was injured. The men sought to avoid publicity about their misad- venture by giving the police false names, but were recognized. COURT BANISHES MAN IN 2 STATES FOR LIFE Lawyers Question Legality of Sentence of Girl’s A- leged Assailant. Special to The Washington Post. Danville, Va. April 7.—When J. H. Anderson, of Schoolfield, was arraigned at Yanceyville, N. C., today before Judge W. E. Harding and convicted of attacking a young woman, he was sen- tenced by a jury, after 24 hours’ de- liberation, to pay a fine of $500 and serve two years on the county roads. Judge Harding thereupon suspended the sentence, provided Anderson stays out of North Carolina for the remainder of his life and that he keeps outside a radius of 200 miles of Danville for the remainder of his ‘life. Anderson readily agreed, asserting that if he is ever found within the pre- scribed areas he would return without requisition. Lawyers today debated the banishment order and the legality of a North Carolina judge making a sen- tence apply to Virginia. SHOES SOLE BAGGAGE OF WOMAN ON LINER Mystery Passenger Released by British; Refuses to Tell of Herself. Liverpool, England, April 7 (By A. P.).—A mystery woman described as “Eleanor Parker” who boarded the steamship Celtic in New York wearing carpet slippers and carrying a small grip containing only a pair of men’s shoes, and detained here by immigra- tion authorities.on landing Monday, was liberated today. ‘The woman, lacking a change of clothes and money but having a prop- erly vised passport, left for London.

Still, manager of Apache lodge, and John W. Hughes. Didn’t Think It Would Burn. The statement reads: “We went up to the airship on Rpose- velt lake on Wednesday morning after it landed, in a rowboat with an out- board motor, belonging to Ed. Smith. I was accompanied by Jack Williams, of Phoenix, and Albert Evans, of Phoenix. We helped tow the ship (the Santa Maria) across the lake to Apache lodge. “We were all in the boat after it had been refueled, when it was ready to leave. Col. Pinedo was shaking hands with Roland Still, saying goodbye, when I lit a cigarette and threw the match into the water. There was an imme- diate flash and the flames started from the water to the boat. I knew there was gasoline on the water, but did not think it would burn. I am certainly sorry that it happened. “We did all that we could do to help s.ve the ship.” The boy who threw the match into the water, bringing to a ha’t Com- mander De Pinedo’s air tour ~ ‘our continents, had been sought since yes- terday. Commander De Pinedo said that he would forward the original signed statement to Premier Mussolini which he hopes will allay the fears c_ his countrymen that. the Santa Mr was destroyed as the result of an antifascist plot. De Pinedo said “I am sure that it was an accident, a result of the boy’s carelessness.” Second Plane Being Shipped. Milan, Italy, April 7 (By A.

Chicago, April 7 (By A. P.).— Vice President Dawes, guided by a Supreme Court decision, today held that the Senate campaign funds investigating committee retains its powers, although Congress had,adjourned, and appointed Senator Simeon D. Fess (Republican), Ohio, to succeed Senator Guy D. Goff (Republican), Virginia, resigned, on the committee. The Vice President followed the opin- ion of the high court in the recent case against Mal Daugherty, whose tes- timony was wanted by a Senate com- mittee. The filibuster in the expiring hours of the Senate of the Sixty-ninth Congress and the failure of the reso- lution of Senator James A. Reed, chair- man, Missouri (Democrat), to continue the committee, and the resignation of Senator Goff, left the decision on the question to the Vice President. Senators Goff, Borah (Republican), Idoha, and Walsh (Democrat), Mon- tana, all expressed opinions that the committee continued legally to subsist. Senator Keyes (Republican), New Hampshire, chairman of the committee on audit and control of the contingent fund of the Senate,. held that the com- mittee was dead, and that he should not approve further expenditures from the fund by the committee.

Lample filed suit for absolute divorce. Today Lample filed his answer in the nature of a personal letter, written from the penitentiary, to Charles R. Whiteford, clerk of the circuit court. Mrs. Lample charges desertion. Lample’s reply was: “Sir—The bill of complaint and sub- pena on behalf of my wife on hand, allow me to say the charge is true and I have no wish to oppose the wishes of Mrs. Lample. My wife was excep- tionally kind, patient and affectionate. She cooked a wicked meal, did tricks with the washboard and darned my socks—verbally and otherwise.

ENVOY|"0 CONVEY VIEWS OF COOLIDGE Senate Would Get Convention. Borah Kept Acquainted With All Steps. By ALBERT W. FOX. President Coolidge and Secretary of State Kellogg are preparing to negotiate with Nicaragua a new treaty or conven- tion for the construction of a ship canal and the announced appointment of former Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson as the President’s personal representative, looms up as a definite step toward consummation of the project. It is expected that Stimson will leave New York tomorrow, taking passage on a vessel of the United Fruit Co. He will be accompanied by his wife and by a secretary. The appointment was an- nounced after a conference at the White House between President Cool- idge, Secretary Kellogg, Assistant Secre- tary of State Olds and Stimson, The text of the announcement was as follows: “The Hon. Henry L. Stimson. of New York, former Secretary of War, has con- sented to make a trip to Nicaragua as a representative of the President, at the suggestion of the Secretary of State in order to take to our Minister, Mr. Eber- hardt, and Admiral Latimer, certain views of the administration which can not conveniently be taken up by cor- respondence and in order to get in- formation from them as to the entire situation in that country to bring back for the use of this government, which they can not very well give to us through correspondence.” Diaz Attempt Failed. It is difficult, if not impossible, to frame the groundwork of a treaty by correspondence unless certain points which réquire particular framing are discussed and put into mutually- agreeable form. The recent. effort which President Adolfo Diaz of Nica- ragua made to frame a treaty did not prove acceptable when it was. made public. The United States government, on the other hand, continues to desire a treaty which will safeguard the rights of the United States in the new Nica- raguan canal and the actual building of this canal in the near future is a matter in which this government main- tains great interest. The Bryan-Cha- morro treaty of 1916 gives the United States in a general way the right to construct this canal but statts that details will be arranged later. It is becoming apparent that the time for arranging these details is close at hand. Prior to the actual construction of the Panama canal, the United States entered into a convention with Pana- ma, dealing with the independence of Panama, the Canal Zone, authority in canal zone and other matters, some vitally important and some referring to minor questions of detail. Article Protects Panama. Article I provided as follows: “The United States guarantees and will maintain the independence of the republic of Panama.” It is assumed here that a similar basic provision will grow out of the ‘convention concerning the Nicaraguan canal treaty. The new convention or treatv, when it is in final form, Will be given to the Senate to ratify and the administra- tion will make a point of providing the Senate with every opportunity to gather information. Senator Borah, chairman of the Senate foreign rela- tions committee, is being kept advised now by President Coolidge and Secre- tary Kellogg, and Borah’s advise and judgment are consistently sought, even though they are not always followed, It is understood that President Cool- idge informed Senator Borah of the plan to send Stimson to Nicaragua. And Stimson’s visit may well result in in- Borah and others are interested, espe- clally as the Senate’s proposed inyesti- gation was lost in the filibusterf. Taft’s' Secretary of Stimson was Secretary of/War under President Taft from May, 1911, to March, 1913. During the world war he served as a colonel in a field artillery regiment in France. Although officials here may desire to put the soft pedal on the particular qualifications of Stimson, which will serve him in good stead, it is pointed out that he is an ideal man to perform the service required in arranging for the negotiation of Nicaraguan canal treaty. In the first place, he was Secretary of War while the Panama canal waa under construction, and had responsi- bility for the handling of all matters pertaining to that gigantic project. Furthermore, he is a lawyer, a Republi- c who has taken no particularly ac- tivé part in politics, and is a trained with problems similar to those which arose through his administration of the machine was found.

Senator Reed Traces $2,500 to Books of Coopera- tives in Idaho. PLAINTIFF AGAIN SAYS FORD PAPER HURT HIM. Asserts Many Think Inde-. pendent So Crippled Him He Dare Not Sue. Detroit, April 7 (By A. P.).—A $2,500 loan from a member of a firm of po- tato buyers and distributors wes traced through Aaron Sapiro to a group of growers in the process of organization by him into a cooperative selling ‘asso- ciation today in Sapiro’s $1,000,000 libel suit against Henry Ford. Sapiro, under cross-examination for the ninth day by Reed, chief of the Ford defense, testi- fied that the money was advanced by E. W. Weyl. of the firm of Weyl & Zukerman, which name appears repeat- edly in Saptro’s declaration of Hbels. There was another loan by Weyl, not through him, Sapiro testified, but fur- ther testimony on the point was cut off by the adjournment of court. The $2,500 was placed in Sapiro’s name at the request of Charles J. Carison, head of a potato association at Idaho Falls, | or some other member ofthe potato group, Sapiro testified, and a note was made payable to him, The Idaho potato organization was taken up in the last few minutes of a day devoted virtually exclusively to Sapiro’s activities in organizing potato growers’ cooperatives and the fees he received as legal counsel for them.

Pressed by Senator Reed as to his own idea of what caused the collapse, Sapiro said that G. Herbert Fossett, | president of the Maine association, at- tributed it to the Dearborn Independ- ent articles and that he himself be- lieved that to have been the cause. Some difficulty was experienced in the collection of a fee from the Min- nesota growers and Sapiro wrote July 15, 1924: “A great many people have the idea the Ford attacks and the attitude of others have crippled so that we are afraid to take on any more litigation.” He threatened suit for his fee and resigned as counsel. Sidney G. Rubi- now, general manager of the associa- _tion, wrote that Sapiro had not been elected counsel, but later the fee of $7,500 was paid. . HIGH SCHOOL STRIKE MAY GO T0 GOVERNOR Nearly 1,000 Superior Pupils Still Out; Mayor Can Not Remove Officials. Superior, Wis., April 7 (By A. P.).— Becoming more bitter with every. pass- ing hour, the superior Central High school student strike of nearly 1,000 at 11| Pupils enters its seventh day tomorrow with no sign of settlement or compro- mise and the prospects are that the matter will be carried to Gov. Fred R. Zimmerman for action. Action to bring the strike before the governor is predicted following official filing of the city attorney‘s report, which states that Mayor Baxter has no legal power to remove the Rev. A. T. Exkblad, chairman of the school board and Paul R. Spencer, superintendent of schools, from their offices. Requests for the resignations were made by citizens’ committees who de- manded that Miss Lulu Dickinson, dis- charged teacher be reinstated by the board. The students struck when the school board failed to reinstate the teacher. Forty-four teachers today organized classes among the 69 students at Central high, who have failed to join the strike. About 100 East High school students have joined in a sympathetic strike. Organized labor of Superior is begin- ning to take an active part in the fight. on the school board.

Rankin, who was studying law in Abraham Lincoln's law office when Lincoln was elected President, celebrated his ninetieth birthday here today. He recalled Lincoln's writing the Cooper Union speech and the “House Divided Against Itself” speech. Asked Not Like the innocent One Sent. to His Brother, He - Was Advised. TESTIMONY CONTINUED — IN HIS DIVORCE ACTION Ordered Mother-in-Law From Inn, He Says, So He Could Have Some Privacy. Chicago, April 7 (By A. P.).—Col. ‘Edward C. Carrington, New York and Chicago capitalist and lawyer, testified today in his suit for divorce from Mrs. Anne Walsh Carrington, that she did not admit any wrongdoing with the colonel’s brother, Campbell Carrington, who was named as co-respondent. Referring to the letter, which, ac- cording to the colonel’s testimony yes- terday Campbell had written to his sister-in-law and which the witness said he found in a dresser drawer, in (the Saranac inn, Saranac Lake. N. Y., - her counsel asked if she had admitted producers in California's San Joaquin | ‘valley, and handled. some products on anything wrong, “Of course not,” answered the com- plainant. “She said it: was a crezy letter, not in kind to the innocent one she said she had written to him.” Yesterday the colonel told how his wife on her knees had begged for the letter and when he declined to give it to her, eattempted to take poison, which he said he prevented. Guide Failed to Meet Him. The colonel and Campbell, whom he caned recently in New York and who caused his arrest, now are bitter ene- mies in business as well as in connec- tion with the divorce suit. The colonel sued Campbell for $1,000,000 charging alienation of affections, and Campbell sued him for damages as a result of the caning. Carrington further testified that in 1920 he arrived at his summer camp near Belgrade, Maine, to find the guide playing mumbly-peg with his wife’s children instead of having met him at the station. He had telegraphed of his intended arrival, he testified, but finding no one at the station, was compelled to take a public conveyance to the camp, five miles away. When he asked the guide, Harold Webster, why he had not met him, the colonel testified the guide told him that Mrs. Carrington had said the colonel could take a taxi. He spoke to his wife about it, he said, and she called Webster a liar and demanded the dismissal of the guide. He said the guide was not discharged and that later he went fishing with him. Carrington said that he -ordered his wife’s mother and Mrs. Carrington’s two daughters by a previous marriage from the Saranac inn in 1922 because he wanted some time alone with his wife. Steel Firm’s Mines To Operate Nonunion California, Pa., April 7 (By A. P.).— The mines of the Vesta Coal Co., sub- sidiary of the Jones & Laughlin Steel Co., and employing 3,000 men, will operate on a’ nonunion basis when work is resumed, Joseph Edwards, general superintendent, announced late today.. The company’s mines, situated for the most part in southeastern Wash- ington county, have been idle since April 1, when the Jacksonville agrée- ment expired. The mines produce coal only for the Jones & Laughlin Cor- poration, Edwards said. The Pittsburgh Terminal Coal Co., announced a similar decision a week ago.

Will Rogers Recalls : 'Self-Determination — 5 gt Executive Receives Leave of - Brother ts Ousted. REMOVED AS JUDGE. BY NEW STATE HEAD Sudden Change Due to Long Dispute Over Jurist’s Re- fusal to Quit. Santiago, Chile, April 7 (By A. P.).— The political upheaval in Chile grow- ing out of a drastic campaign against the opposition by Premier Ibanez ever since he ass the premier- ship two months ago, k a dramatic turn today when President Emilio FPigueroa-Larrain announced that he would absent himself from his post for two months. At the ‘same time the council of ministers signed a decree giving two months leave to the president and naming Premier Ibanez, who also: holds the portfolio of the minister of the interior, vice president for the period. The president's action, it is under- stood, grew out of the strained situa- tion which has existed in the govern- ment because of the refusal of Dr. Jayier Figueroa, the president’s brother, to resign as president of the supreme court at the demand of Premier Ibanez. The premier, acting in his new capacity as vice president; called a cabinet meeting immediately after the decree had been signed at which he assumed the function of chief execu- tive of the country. His first official act was to sign a decree declaring va- cant the post of the president of the supreme court. Outcome of. Conference. This morning President Figueroa- Larrain held a long conference with Premier Ibanez and afterward at a cabinet meeting made known his de- cision to absent himself from the execu- tive chair. “Serious personal motives compel me to absent myself from my constitu- tional duties for a period of two menths,” the president’s statement said. “During this time the minister of the interior, Premier Ibanez, will replace me in the presidency with the title of vice president of the republic, in ac- cordance with article 66 of the po- litical constitution of the state.” The documertt was signed by the president and the foreign: minister, Conrado Rios Gallardo. In normal times Chile has no vice president, but. according to the consti- tution, in the event that the president resigns, dies or absents himself from duty, the minister of the interior, a post which includes the premiership, assumes the office of vice president and acts as president. In case the president resigns or dies the constitu- tion calls for a presidential election after a period of 60 days. The -temporary retirement of Presi- dent Figueroa-Larrain, from previous developments in Chile, has every .indi- cation that ‘it is a further step by Premier :Ibanez to gather the reins of power into his own hands. The premier has been conducting a steady campaign for the past two months against his political opponents and has also de- ported a number of communists. Dr. Javier Figueroa, the president's brother, was named head of the su- preme court, and in recent months had protested vigorously against the dis- missal by Premier Ibanez of a group of supreme court justices. At last reports Dr. Figueroa was a virtual prisoner in his home. Theater Padlock Bill Signed by Gov. Smith Albany, N. Y., April 7 (By A. P.).— The Wales theater padlock bill was signed by Gov.

Trying to Save a Dog, Sales Engineer Killed Maplewood, N. J., April 7 (By A. P.) Stuart I. Weill, general sales engineer of the Western Electric Co., today lost his life in an unsuccessful effort to save a stray dog. He was killed in try- ing to coax the animal from the path of an approaching express train. The dog was struck by the train and so badly hurt that it had to be shot. Weill was watting at the station: when he spied the dog wandering along the track, and giving no heed to the onrushing ex- press, Weill leaned over the platform, shouting at the dog in an effort to scare it from danger, and was struck by the train and decapitated.

TEXAS RANGERS DEPORT 200 FROM BOOM TOWN Alleged Undesirables Sent Out of Borger, Oil Center, After Round-Up. MARTIAL LAW IS OPPOSED Borger, Tex., April 7 Texas Rangers today assisted local authorities in supervising the evacua- tion of 200 persons listed as undesir- ables and ordered to leave this oil boom center as part of the “crime wave clean-up” that followed the recent shooting of two deputy sheriffs. The round-up of police characters was completed last night when officers confiscated more than 200 slot ma- chines and other gambling devices. All dance halls, which were operating in “wide open” style, were closed. Residents were divided today on the question of another request to place Borger under martial law. With the killing of two deputies last week asa climax to several violent deaths, Gov. Dan Moody was requested to send soldiers and to declare martial law. Instead he sent Texas Rangers, who on previous occasions had little difficulty in restoring order. Chamber of com- merce members last night indorsed ranger rule by adopting a resolution quests for martial law. This action followed reports that the governor had ordered the adjutant general to inves- tigate conditions here. Search continued today for Matthew Kimes and Ray Terrell, identified as leaders in a series of bank robberies and wanted in connection with the slaying of the deputies. Hugh and Whitey Walker and Ed Bailey, arrested last week on charges of bank robbery and also held for the slaying of the officers, have been unable to make bond. Gov. Moody ordered the rangers to stay here until the population of 15,000 was reduced to law abiding citi- zens. Scores of underworld characters came here following the recent discov- ery of oil. IOWA'S EDITORS PAY TO ADVERTISE STATE $50,000 Is Voted for Space in Eastern Papers to Tell of Market There. : Cedar Rapids, Iowa, April 7.—Iowa editors are going to spend $50,000 to tell the East that there is a lot of money in this State even though the McNary-Haugen farm bill. was vetoed by the President. Fifteen: editors of the leading daily newspapers met here today and voted to spend the $50,000 in the next year in outside newspapers to tell the man- ufacturers that Iowa is one of the greatest potential markets in America and that it has the cash to lay down for all it buys. The editors declared that politicians had spread propaganda that the State was bankrupt, but their advertising sheets showed that more money had been spent by merchants in advertis- ing in the past twelve months than during any previous such period. This appropriation makes $200,000 the leading newspapers of the State have contributed to the advertising campaign in the past four years.

Tampa, Fla., April 7 (By A. P.).—Gen. J. C. Foster, of Houston, Tex., former'y commander of the trans-Mississippi de- partment, today was elected com- mander-in-chief of the United Confed- erate Veterans for 1927. He defeated Gen. Edgar D. Taylor, of Richmond, Va., commander of the army of northern Virginia, in a hectic session of the vet- erans that saw State delegations sharply divided over candidates. Gen. Foster succeeds Gen. M. D. Vance of Little Rock. Little Rock,.Ark., previously had been selected as the site of the 1928 reunion. The scene in the closing session of the Sons of Confederate Veterans, was vastly different. Dr. S. L. Lowry, of Tampa, chairman of the general reunion committee went. in as commander in chief On rolls greased two weeks ago. After the reappointment of Gen. Harry Rene Lee, of Nashville, Tenn., to serve his tenth term as adjutant general of the veterans, department heads were selected as follows: R. A. Miller, of Abilene, Tex., com- mander of the trans-Mississippi depart- ment succeeding Gen. Foster;. Gen. Tay- lor to succeed himself as commander of the army of northern Virginia; A. T. Goodwin, of Tuscaloosa, Ala., to suc- ceed Hal W. Walker, Montgomery. Delegations Are Divided. The delegations from Georgia, Ala- bama and Oklahoma were divided and indulged in acrimonious debate on the qualifications of the two aspirants to the high command. Division in the voting followed roughly the route of the Mississippi river, with the east for the most part supporting Gen. Taylor and the west practically solid for Gen. Foster. Tonight the rear guard of Lee’s le- gions, the last affair of business behind them, went joyously to do traditional homage to the picked fairest of Dixie in the crowning social event of the re- union, the grand ball of the United Confederate Veterans. Tomorrow the parade, to which the last of the gallants who followed Lee and Jackson look forward for twelve months, will close the thirty-seventh annual recall of the gray-clad army to its colors. The Sons of Confederate Veterans named as department commanders S. R. G. Lamkin, of Roanoke, Va., for the Department of Northern Virginia; John Ashley Jones, of Atlanta, for the Army of Tennessee, and Edmond R. Wiles, of Little Rock, Ark., for the trans-Mis- sissippl department. Gen. Lowry will appoint subordinate officers later, as will Gen. Foster. The Sons of Confederate Veterans led in business accomplishments today, with a list of resolutions. The fighting men of the sixties con- fined themselves to resolutions com- mending the establishment of a uni- versity in Texas as a memorial to the women of the Confederacy, and an- other censuring the sons for a practice of riding in s.utomobiles in the grand parade while their elders march bhe- hind the colors. The sons’ chief proposals were for a check by the organization on history texts used in Southern schools “to combat insidious influences seeking to discredit the heroes of. the war be- tween the States and to create a dis- torted notion of the ideals behind the war;”’ financial support for a national memorial park at Manassas battlefield; the employment of paid organizers in a national membership campaign, and approbation for the recent action of some States in increasing pensions of Confederate veterans. Mrs. A. McD. Wilson, of Atlanta, was made president general of the Confederate Southern Memorial asso- ciation for life at the closing busi- ness session of the organization here late today. The same tenure of of- fice was extended Miss Mildred Ruther- ford, historian general. U.S. Funds Lacking To Patrol Border Buffalo, N. Y., April 7 (By A. P.) Patrol and investigation work of the United States immigration service along the Canadian border in District 5, ex- tending from Watertown, N. Y., on the north to Toledo, Ohio, on th west, will be sharply curtailed for the next three months because of lack of funds. The curtailment was announced to- day by chief William J. Fiynn, in charge of district headquarters here, upon re- ceipt of word from Washington that a strict. policy of economy must be fol- lowed. Chief Flynn estimated that at least 10,000 aliens are scattered along the Canadian side of the border awaiting an opportunity to enter this country illegally.

SOVIET HAD SHELTERED | PLOTTERS, I7 IS CHARGED | Protest Sent to Moscow’s Charge; Russian Action on Raid Awaited. Peking, China, April 7 (Ey A. P.).— | The relations between the northern | government here and soviet Russia as @ result of yesterday's raid under di- | rection of northern soldiers and police on buildings attached to the sovict em- bassy. tonight apparently had under- gone no official change. The situation, however, was compll- cated further by the resignation of Dr. V. K. Wellington Koo as acting premier to Marshal Chang Tso-Lin. Reports were circulated that Gen, Yang Yu- Ting, chief adviser to the Manchurian war lord, would become premier. (Although no explanation for the resignation was’ received from Peking, | it was believed in London that little) change in the political situation in north China was to be expected.

A conspiracy to control end monopo- lize the potash industry of the United States, directed by German and French producers, was charged in a suit filed in ae York yesterday by the govern- ment. representatives in New with American distrib- ‘uting agencies the government alleges that the French and an com- panies are dividing the sale of potash to be made in this country. | The companies also are alleged to have been fixing prices and the gov- ernment asserts that because the mines of the French and German companies constitute the only sources of a large supply of potash, users of the com- modity in the United States, including farmers, are almost wholly dependent upon them for their requirements.

Another sea tale of mingled mystery and tragedy was written yesterday when the Shipping Board erased the name of the steamship Elkton from its rolls and attached in its stead the words—“Lost at Sea.” On February 16, the Elkton, of the American Pioneer Line, bound from the Philippines to Honolulu, flashed out a call for help and then vanished, leaving the only key to her fate a faint radio request—"Come and stand by us.” A response by a passing ship and seaplanes from the naval station at Guam disclosed nothing but an oil- covered expanse, bare of bodies or wreckage. Since then the only clue to the ship or its 37 officers and men has been a lone life preserver cast up last week on the Philippine coast and unverified reports that several oars of the vessel’s life boats had washed up on the island of Homonhon. 1 Conservative-Royalist Group Would End Battleships and Battle Cruisers. SUBMARINES TO GO IF BRITISH LIMIT FLEET U. S. and Britain Get 500,000 Tons, France 225,000 and Japan 300,000. Paris, April 7 (By A. P.).—Abolition of battleships and battle cruisers by international agreement is in a naval disarmament plan introduced in the chamber of deputies today. The plan is contained in a resolution spon- sored by eleven conservative deputies and the royalist deputies, Jan le Cour Grandmaison and the Marquise de ia Ferronnays. It calls on the French government to invite all civilized na- tions to join in limiting naval arma- ments on the basis it suggests. The values and functions of the prin- cipal categories of naval units are dis- cussed at length in the preamble of the resolution. The principal conclu- sions are as follows: 1. Battleships and battle cruisers should be eliminated by international agreement, thus at once saving one of the greatest items of naval expendi- ture. 2. Cruisers should be limited to 10,- 000-ton sizes and 8-inch guns, as pro- vided in the Washington agreement. Abolish Submarines. 3. Submarines should be abolished, provided that the tonnage of light cruisers be limited by percentages giv- ing Great Britain no more than twice the tonnage of any other European power, leaving the United States on equality with England, and fixing Ja- pan’s ratio to them at 5:3, as fixed in the Washington agreement. France, however, is to have a Mediter- ranean fleet on equality with that of Italy, as well as such additional per- centage as may be deemed sufficient to protect her Atlantic coast and overseas colonies. This supplement is estimated as being probably one-half the strength of the Mediterranean fleet. The allotment of naval strength might be considered provisionally as follows: Great Britain and the United States, 500,000 tons each; Japan, 300,000 tons; France, 225,000; Italy, 150,000; Spain, Holland and the larger Latin-American states, 75,000 to 100,000 each; Germany, Russia and Turkey, 50,000 each. Resentment at U. 8S. The document alludes to France hav- ing been treated as a “poor relation” at the Washington conference. “Far from nourishing any desire for conquest,” continues the resolution, “France has been and is now animated by peaceful desires. If instead of hav- ing been taken by surprise she had been consulted in advance, she would have been able to reply to the appeal of President Harding—and she could still reply today to President Cool- idge—by concrete propositions without placing her interests in peril and would have been able to give full measure of satisfaction to the ideas of our asso- clates on the other side of the At- lantic.” League to Be Informed, Geneva, Switzerland, April 7 (By A. P.).—The preliminary commission for a disarmament conference today agreed to put a clause in the draft treaty ob- ligating the powers to communicate to the League of Nations statements as to the amount they propose to expend on land, naval and aerial armaments for each current financial year so that public opinion may be fully informed. The American spokesman, Hugh Gib- s0n, announced that the United States was unable to accept the idea of Um- itation of armaments by budgetary lim- itation. He recommended inclusion in the treaty of provisions for complete publicity regarding armament expendi- tures, believing this would adequately meet the situation. 33,425 Expected At Citizens’ Camps Location and dates of 53 citizens’ military training camps of the army this summer were announced by the War Department yesterday, and this year’s attendance is expected to reach 33,425, !

Key to Bigger Business. Pointing out that the term “efficient service” may be overworked, but that for which it stands is very much un- derworked. Mr. Morehouse, at the morning session gave the opening ad- dress on the program of the Eastern regional conference, saying bank divi- sion, American Bankers association, at the Willard hotel. “Efficient service is the key which opens the way to a bigger business for every bank,” said President Morehouse, who also is vice president of the Se- curity Trust & Savings Bank, Los An- geles. “Efficient service is something which can not be laid aside on the shelf only to be used on special occasions,” he continued. “If it is to remain at its best it must be used constantly.” Declaring that bank officials should meet their customers half way, Morehouse urged upon bankers to show them a sympathetic, helpful interest in their business tra ions, realizing that while their transactions may be simple, most bank patrons are sincere and earnest. ‘The ‘oldest bunk in a town,” with a a NEW * mes in Bungalow Ho OLD GARRETT PARK A Comfortable Home in a Beautiful Section Will Be A Joy Forever Thickly Wooded Location and High Elevation GARRETT PARK Phone J.

Philadelphia. troit; Friday, April 8, 1927. NICARAGUA CANAL NEGOTIATIONS. Although the former Secretary of War, ‘Henry L. Stimson, goes to Nicaragua ostensi- bly as the President’s representative to deal with the situation arising from the revo— ‘lutionary disturbances, it will be generally as- jsumed that Mr. Stimson’s real errand is the ‘negotiation of a treaty providing for the con- istruction of the Nicaraguan canal. There is ‘nothing in the conflict between the Diaz gov- ,ernment and the Sacasa-Mexican revolt that ‘requires the presence of Mr. Stimson at ;Managua. The “revolution” directed from \Mexico has virtually collapsed, following re- peated defeats and the inability of the Calles government to advance further funds to Sacasa or to get supplies to him through the barrier ‘get up by Admiral Latimer. / The treaty with Nicaragua for the construc- ition of the canal will probably follow the -gen- eral lines of the Hay-Bunau Varilla treaty be- tween the United States and Panama. This treaty provides for the transfer of the canal zone in perpetuity, grants the use of waters, ‘harbors and islands, regulates the fiscal rela- ‘tions of the two governments, &c. The first ‘article provides that the United States shall uarantee and maintain the independence of ‘the Republic of Panama. The experience of ‘the late war has warned the two governments ‘that an additional compact should be made, providing that Panama shall become a bellig- erent on the side of the United States when- ever this country shall be at war. The reason ifor this additional agreement, which is now ‘pending, is that if Panama should remain neu- tral an enemy of the United States could enter ‘the ports of Panama and obtain fuel and sup- ‘plies, and might use the territory of Panama ‘as a base from which to operate against the canal. ' president Coolidge doubtless is convinced ‘that if the Nicaragua canal is to be ready ‘tor world commerce before the Panama canal is taxed beyond its capacity no further time ishould be lost. Every one remembers the ‘years of controversy and negotiation that pre- ceded the beginning of construction at ‘Panama; and ten years elapsed from the day ithe United States actually took possession until the first ship passed through the canal. Presumably the Nicaragua canal could be con- tructed in less than ten years, because part of the route lies through Lake Nicaragua, and he route is not as mountainous as the anama route, Nevertheless, if the Nicaragua canal should be opened to traffic ten years ‘thence the enterprise will have been remarkably free from time-consuming obstacles. ' The opposition to President ‘Coolidge’s ‘policy in Nicaragua is opposition to the new ‘Nicaragua canal. Presumably this opposition will disappear’: as soon as the Sacasa revolu- tion collapses and the plans of the adminis- tration for the building of the new canal be- come known. Certainly no considerable part - = J ’ 2 « = =e =~ * — J . ’ a 2 i of the American people will place obstacles in the way of the President in seeking to pro- | wide for the further security of this nation and for the promotion of its commerce. It will ibe perceived that the guarantee of the inde- mendence of Nicaragua, made necessary for the ptability of the canal, will forever put an end to revolution and will enhance the welfare of the people of that and neighboring republics. The Nicaragua canal, when completed, will be a potent agency of national defense as well ‘Rs an aid to world commerce. The distance 'from New York to San Francisco via the | Nicaragua canal route is several hundred miles-| less than through the Panama canal. A sec- ond canal would minimize the danger of } stoppage of transit by reason of earthquakes } or slides, as both canals would not be likely ito be put out of commission at the same ) time. —* INCREASE OF HUNTERS. The Department of Agriculture reports that | during the 1925-26 season more than 5,150,000 ‘hunting licenses were taken out by sportsmen Sthroughout the United States and Alaska, as ¢rompared with 4,300,000 during 1923-24 and eit g 4} Btitute a menace to human habitation. Pst BS ves < Sn in ce Pe pena eae ee . 4,900,000 during 1924-25. Obviously hunting js becoming increasingly popular. ' It is impossible, of course, to make an ac- -curate estimate as to the amount of game bagged by these millions of nimrods. Undoubt- er ‘ edly, however, it is enormous. To the millions tof licensed hunters must be added the even ) greater army of those who defy the conse- } quences of the law, and unregistered and un- * | tontrolled pay no attention to the legal bag limits. A century ago there was no cause for alarm over the use of the rifle against wild life. Animals were to be found in abundance. ft was a genuine public service to get them out pf the way so that they no longer could con- In ad- | fition, their slaughter provided a considerable | part of the country’s food supply. _ {{- Since then, however, matters have been re- ;wersed. Animal life no longer menaces civiliza- ‘ition, nor does it contribute any appreciable part of the meat supply. Gradually, over the 8, it has been hunted down until there } genuine danger that it will become ex- | of the islands if the people were cast adrift, it is evident that the United States would be guilty of 3 breach of faith if it should abandon the Filipinos. They are utterly unfitted for the task of maintaining a stable and capable government. It would be a miracle if they were anything else. Nevertheless, the progress made by the Filipinos is most encouraging. They are mov- ing in the right direction. Their progress seems slow to them, but a comparison of their condition in 1898 with what it is today should give them confidence as well as patience. If anything in the future is a certainty, it is that the United States will help the Filipinos toward independence, and grant it to them whenever they are capable of maintaining it. Their chief impediment is their own politicians, as beggarly a lot of rascals as ever cursed a country. These rogues play upon the feelings of thetr fellows and stir up the premature and foolish demand for immediate independence. What the politicians desire is the opportunity to exploit their own people, by misuse of gov- ernment machinery. The pitiful state of the Mexican people under government exploiters is an example of what would occur in the Philippines if the United States were to with- draw. Fortunately for the Filipinos, the United States will discharge its duty toward them, in spite of the clamor in the islands and the criticism, of those Americans who are always eager to impeach the good faith and honor of their own government. LONG-DISTANCE VISION. Demonstration has been made by officials of the American Telephone & Telegraph Co. of a practical system of television—a method of transmitting synchronously a voice and a picture of the person speaking. The device was developed in the Bell telephone labora- tories, and while still short of perfection is sufficiently well developed to have made pos- sible an impressive demonstration, during which Washingtonians spoke into an ordinary telephone transmitter placed before the tele- vision device, and their voices were reproduced in New York, accompanied by their likenesses. The new process presages a new era in com- munication. Its adaptation to radio has been experimentally demonstrated and sooner or later the world will have what has been anticipated for so long—actual wireless moving pictures. World series baseball games may be flashed on screens throughout the country, faithfully transcribed play by play, accompanied by all the sights and sounds of a championship event... Opera and dramatic events may be carried into the home. A hun- dred million people may witness the inaugura- tion ceremonies of 1929, hearing every word spoken, seeing with their own eyes every event which transpires. News reels need no longer record past events, for the cameraman may place a box at the scene of action, and audi- ences everywhere -will be able to see and hear history in the making. Fifty-one years ago Alexander Graham Bell gave the telephone to the world. It seems hardly possible that in so short a time his crude instruments could have been developed into the television device. One can only wonder what the next half century may bring forth. MAYOR THOMPSON. The election of William Hale Thompson to be mayor of Chicago was a foregone conclu- sion after the Hale and Deneen forces effected a combination. The city is Republican by a large majority and Thompson’s unique cam- ‘aign methods and his wide-open program made him very popular, notwithstanding the widespread criticisms of his former administra- tion of the city’s affairs. Now Thompson makes this announcement: I’m going to drive out all the gangsters to New York, to Cleveland, to St. Louis and elsewhere. In 90 days the crooks will be practically driven out of Chicago. The police will be put back on police duties, instead of sniffing around for home-brew and fanning mattresses for pints. Thompson has undertaken a man-sized job in trying to rid Chicago of its gangsters. The rivalry of gangs engaged in the liquor traffic has developed strongly entrenched combina- tions that are difficult to dislodge. They are well equipped with money and evidently there is no lack of criminals ready to do the bidding of the gang leaders. It is not altogether the lack of police effort that has made Chicago the world crime capital. But the whole country will applaud Mayor Thompson in his forthcom- ing campaign. The control of the city of Chicago by the Deneen-Thompson combine renders it improb- able that Gov. Lowden can obtain the support of the Illinois delegation in the next national convention. With his own State opposing him, his candidacy will be under a heavy handicap, even granting that the corn belt States unite in his support. ⸗ PITCHING HAY. Teaching American farmers how to make hay might be looked upon as equivalent to “teaching your grandmother to suck eggs,” were it not for the fact that the Department of Agriculture has completed investigations which clearly indicate that the haymakers still have something to learn. The department finds that “some of the types and sizes of mowers used by hay grbwers in certain sections are better adapted to con- ditions in other sections than those now in use there.”” In support of this the bulletin gives many interesting illustrations. For in- stance, it was found that in Idaho a crew of fourteen men will stack from 80 to 90 tons of alfalfa daily with a certain type of outfit, eae in Colorado qa seven-man crew with a. : and profit by these investigations. AN OLD PLAN REVIVED. In the North American Review of October, 1821, James Trecothic Austin, attorney general of Massachusetts, wrote as follows: . We shall not in future hear of any con- vict being sentenced a fourth time. Out of the whole number 1,471, that have been sent to the State prison in Charlestown, 133 were for a second time, 17 a ttird time and 8 a fourth time. A law was passed two years since providing that when any criminal sent to the prison was found to have been there before, the, at- torney general should proceed against him by information, and he should be sentenced for a further term not exceed- ing seven years, because of his second conviction; and if a criminal should come there for the third time he should be pro- ceeded against in a similar manner, and should be sentenced to confinement for life. Seven convicts are now -there for life under this new law. In this way all those who axe incurable will be taken from preying on the public, and, having previously learned some trade in the prison, can be advantageously employed. Apparently the habitual criminal was as much a problem a hundred-odd years ago as he is today. New York State even now is experimenting with its so-called Baumes laws, designed to penalize the repeated offender on exactly the same plan as was adopted by Massachusetts in 1821. Other States are watching the*experiment closely, and there is a decided tendency to copy the Baumes laws elsewhere. This, tos, follows the advice of the long dead attorney general of Massachusetts. who, commenting on the habitual-offender law, added, “It would probably be good policy for the other States to adopt this recent regula- tion.”’ TWENTY-FIVE HUNDRED NEW JOBS. From the announcement by the civil service commission, in which plans are outlined for filling some 2,500 places in the new. prohibi- tion bureau, it appears that special efforts are to be made to prevent the inadvertent selection of gangsters, murderers and other criminals for the jobs. This desirable end is to be at- tained by requiring each of the applicants for a job to imprint his finger marks upon his application. These fingerprints are to be used to “‘check the accuracy of the applicant’s state- ment as to arrest, indictment or conviction for crime or misdemeanor.” ⁊ Examinations will be held in 600 different cities and towns throughout the country, and it is expected that not less than 25,000 persons will apply for the privilege of taking the tests. The positions to be filled include one chief of fieid division at $6,000 a year, 5 zone super- visors at $5,200, 24 administrators at $4,000 to $6,000, with 24 assistants in enforcement work at $3,300 to $5,200 each, and a like num- ber in “‘permissive work” at equal salaries; 50 deputies at $3,000 to $4,600, besides field of- fice inspectors, associate inspectors at salaries ranging from $3,000 to $3,900 a year each, senior and junior investigators to the number of 180, who will draw anywhere from $3,900 down to $2,400 each, followed by a small army of agents, junior agents, warehousemen and watchmen. The list winds up with 74 at- torneys at $1,860 to $5,200 a year. The civil service commission says that be- cause of the painstaking care with which the examinations are to be made “the testing of applicants for the 2,500 newly classified posi- tions under the bureau of prohibition is one of the largest single tasks ever undertaken by the commission.”’ LOCAL TAXES, The Washington Chamber of Commerce at a recent meeting went on record in no uncer- tain terms against what was characterized as “tax excesses.’’ Following presentation of the matter of an increase in the gasoline tax, dis- cussion swung around to the proposed 20 per cent boost in the valuation of improved prop- erty. Both measures were emphatically de- nounced, and finally by unanimous action the president was directed to form a committee to consider the whole taxation problem and to recommend early and active measures calling for a concerted protest to both District officials and Congress. Formation of such a committee is to be most generously commended. It is generally ad- mitted that residents of the District pay an extraordinarily high tax as compared with that paid by other communities throughout the United States. Yet the District must have funds with which to carry on its varied activ-' ities, and the streets must be kept in good condition. Adequate furfls for either ap- parently have not been available. Streets ~are in bad condition despite the fact that the present 2-cent gas tax brought in not much less than $1,000,000 last year, all of which was expended for highways. At least several District departments are handicapped ‘by lack of funds even now, and the general tendency, with an increase in population, will be toward extended activity. Additional funds may be raised by the increased valuation and by the increased gasoline tax. The wisdonr of these steps, however, is a matter for serious study. Last February, Frank W. Mondell, former | floor leader of the House, told members of the chamber that the Federal government’s share of District expense should be larger, and this is undoubtedly what the committee will discover. If Congress can not be made to see matters in this light, however, other steps will have to be taken to alleviate the dis- tressing condition. The government of Wash- ington can not function efficiently without | money, to many a husband’s sympathy. \ \\ wa hh MIN | jily j F Mexico Is Now Too Busy to Pull the Strings. perl AG ia ‘ Mi —Mu' Wit ANY g Wh Lt }: i 9 , PRESS COMMENT.

Boston Globe: The comicality of the whole performance is disclosed by the fact that one of the novels, “The Plastic Age,” by Percy Marks, has long been forgotten by most readers. It is at least two years since it was a best séller. Its author has written two new books since it appeared. If it “tended to corrupt the morals of youth” it would seem that ample opportunity was given it to get its horrid work in before the local authorities became alarmed.

Philadelphia Record: Secretary Mellon makes two very pertinent points in his reply to the faculties of Columbia and Princeton universities, who think the war debts ought to be remitted, which had not been noted by them and which the general public probably does not realize. In reply to the point that the money we loaned to the Allies was expended in this country, the Secretary says. that we spent hundreds of millions ‘of dollars in England and in France in the purchase of material. They ought to reimburse us for this if we ought to pay for their purchases in ‘this country.

Humanizing Hospitalization. New York Evening Post: With the aim of applying the rule of “capacity to pay,” a group of philanthropists is about to build an extensive hospital at Warwick, N. Y. Such a project has been discussed for years, and its com- pletion will go a long way to “human- ize hospitalization,” as its projectors remark. When the well-to-do are smit- ten with a serious illness it is a simple matter to call in specialists to care for them, and it is quite as simple for those who are willing to accept charity or even free beds in paying hospitals. But there are many who are not able to meet the high costs of modern spe- cialists and who prefer to suffer in si- lence rather than accept something for which they can not pay. To, care for these has long been a problem, The establishment of a hospital where the best care can be obtained at a price within the means of such persons is a true form of philanthropy. Treatment there will leave no humiliating memo- ries. SMALLPOX, In the Review of Reviews Dr. W. W. Keen, the famous Philadelphia physi- clan, says of smallpox: “When John Hancock called the 56 members of the Continental Congress to order he un- doubtedly faced an audience of whom nearly or quite every one was pock- marked. Diligent inquiry elicits the fact that not a single one of the 541 Senators, Representatives and delegates of the present Congress is pock-marked. “The anti-vaccinationists oppose vac- cination as an invasion of their per- sonal liberty and an illegal assault upon their persons. “Has one man, ‘py neglecting to be vaccinated, the legal right to kill 3,164 persons, to endanger the lives of fif- teen or twenty thousand more who con- tracted smallpox but escaped death? An emphatic “No!” is the only possi- ble answer. Yet one man’s neglect to be so vaccinated did cause precisely these results in an epidemic in Montreal, in a population of only 185,000, as re- corded by Sir William Osler. A Pull- man porter who reached that city on February 28, 1885, ill with smallpox. caused a prolonged epidemic that killed or mutilated thousands and halted the commerce of the city for ten months The color of his skin masked the char- acter of the eruption s0 that the dis- ease was not at first recognized. The direct and indirect losses and expenses are incalculable. | “During the 42 years since then, wholesale and continued vaccination. as a result of that epidemic, has been carried on; and a late report shows that smallpox has practically disap- peared from Montreal. “Has not the community both the right and the imperative duty to in- sist upon vaccination,. because it will |prevent such wholesale slaughter?” , | He had worked hard, paid his debts, taught his family to enjoy living and taught his children to work. He did not know huw to complain. of everybody in his community—including a few enemies. Why do we call men of this type failures?

Have Animals Souls? To the Editor of The Post—Sir: To many persons who have a sympathetic interest in animals, and an inherent love for them, this subject is of more than passing interest, and especially now in view of a recent press dispatch from Paris announcing an interesting discussion of the subject by the Forty Immortals of the French academy. “Be kind to animals week,” which !s annually observed, would appear to be an opportune time to pause and con- sider how little is given to them in the way of kindness in return to our faith- ful friends for all their faith and love and, in many cases, even sacrifices of their lives, as recorded in the many instances of animal heroism of daily occurence.

To the Editor of The Post—Sir: If Frank Marion Eddy, who served in Congress from Minnesota from March 4, 1895, to March 3, 1903, is still alive, he will read with keen interest the re- port from San Quentin, Calif., about the new countenances that are being furnished to prisoners in that place when they are released. At a little social gathering in Wash- ington during his term’ in Congress, Mr. Eddy stated that he was without doubt more entitled to the booby prize for masculine pulchritude than any other man who ever served in the House of Representativos. He added that only the rules of the House pre- vented him from extending his claim to being the homeliest man who ever served in Congress. The rules pre- cluded Bim from referring personally to members of the Senate. “I was once accused by a political opponent of being ‘two-faced,’” said this assembly if he believes that I would willingly continue to appear on the floor of the House or in any other public place with tHe face I now we if I had any other to substitute for it?” Every one admitted that there could be only a negative answer to that ques- tion. Now from San Quentin comes the word that Jim Daly, a convict 55 years of age, who is about to be discharged, complained that when he starts out to job in any honest calling. The physi- cian at San Quentin, who studied plas- tic surgery, which has been developed to a remarkable degree as a result of the world war, agreed to change the face of Jim, upon the latter’s request. He pared down the cauliflower ears to normal size and used the parings to fill up a gap in the nasal adornment of Mr. Daly, and the rcsults were ree markable. Within the space of ten d-~s that countenance had been re— placed by a fair imitation of a comely human face. The doctor has been requested to ‘perform 22 similar operations, and 22 convicts will leave San Qucntin at the end of their terms with faces 60 changed that it is doubtful if their mothers will be able to recognize them. But if my friend, Congressman Eddy, is still alive, he is over 70° ana will likely be content to continue in the knowlecge that he has never been found to. dispute his claim to promie nence as the “homelicst man who ever served in the Eouse of Representa- tives.” C.

How good the vegetables and broiled chops tasted that first meal, Peg was to keep the books, and we were to go fifty-fifty on everything. i Mr. Work’s Pointer _On Auction Bridge HE pointer for today is: With Queen-x in Dummy and Ace-Ten-x in Closed Hand, play small from Dummy. ' The idea of playing Queen from Queen-x in Dummy on a small card led against No Trump, is so firmly planted in the minds of that they fail to appreciate that in some cases—and notably in the one covered by the above pointer—it is inadvisable to do so. When the Closed Hand has Ace- Ten-x, the play of the small card from Dummy insures the making of two tricks in the sult; with the Queen played, only one trick may be made. If the Queen be played and it be covered by the King, the Closed Hand probably will take with the Ace, and ‘have left the guarded Ten. That Ten will take a trick if the next lead of that suit be made from the adverse hand on the left; but if it be made from the adverse hand on the right, the Ten probably will be captured. By playing small, two tricks must be made regardless of the location of the ad- verse King and Jack. If both be in the hand of the leader, the Ten will take the first trick and fhe Ace a sub- sequent trick. If both be in the Third Hand, the Ace will take the first trick and the Ten the third trick. If the lead be from the King, the Third Hand having the Jack, the Ace will take the first trick and the Ten the third trick; and if the lead be from the Jack, the Third Hand having the King (as in the hand given yesterday), two tricks are assured for Declarer. Yesterday's illustrative hand was as follows: ‘ North. 5S. Q-4 H. 8-6-5-2 D. K-Q-6-2 C. K-9-3 East S. K-8-3 H. A-J-7 D. 10-9-5-4 C. Q-J-4 West 8. J-9-7-5-2 H. 10-4 D. J-7 C. 10-8-7-2 South 8. A-10-6 H. K-Q-9-3 D. A-8-3 C. A-6-5 With the Five of Spades led, Dummy should play the Four, East the King, and South could win with the Ace, or duck and take the second and third tricks in the suit. The duck would be better because, if the first trick be won, command of the suit must be given up on. the second lead. Play- ing a No-Trump, it is generally wise to keep a winning card of the adverse suit until the partner of the leader has'no more of. it. The balance of the play tomorrow. + Lonely for Bob, she forgets the headache ‘in a taxi and makes love —* sent her heme early from the movie Shouse when she secs his car in front of a | yrooming house. He tells her he can’t help | ji loving her as he holds her in his arms and | Heals her ‘‘Sweetness.’’ CHAPTER XX. | > — ID Bob Thornton really love me? He had said he couldn't help re loving me. Did he try not to, and was that the reason he didn’t see ime oftener? Had my telling him I haa been with others having a good time made him a teeny-weeny bit ealous? — Not one of these questions could I| answer. My mind was in a whirl. A *ifiervish dance. I hated myself for let- ting George Brown kiss me, although J had. not returned his kisses. fvouldn’t be alone with him again. uldn’t give up seeing him if I kept ‘gn with Irene. He was Harry Jessup’s hum. And I couldn’t give up Irene, f he good times she had promised me With her crowd. I was hungry for pleasure. Life. F My finances worried me also. I tried to economize on my food. My reserve all gone, what should I do for new clothes when I came to need them? Managed to get along, and that was All. Restaurant food had grown dis- asteful. I thought of our good home inners when auntie was with me. Wrhought of them hungrily. Irene’s ifittle flat with the kitchenette. Envious. '= I had met Peg Andrews several times. ' liked the blunt, out-spoken girl. | ommon, yes, but good company. The frirl who had shared her room for a Jong time had left. She proposed I lake her place. NB “Do you really mean it, Peg?” I “asked. “Sure do, kiddo,” she returned. “I don’t know if I can afford it.” I knew nothing of what Peg spent. She told me what she had paid. Ad- ding: “IT get my own breakfasts, and lots of times my dinners. I’m a wiz with cooking. And it don’t cost half as much as going to restaurants—even to cheap ones. Then I save the tips be- side.” We talked it over and I found I could live more cheaply, and also have companionship. No longer would I have to sit alone eating my heart out if I went with Peg. I told her I \,ould join her. Pay half the expenses. Il could hardly wait. While Mrs. Woods was kind, she was very strict. No cooking of any kind was allowed. No washing out of even the smallest thing. Peg said she would do the cooking until I caught on, then 1 could do my share. At home I had sometimes made salads, fixed the table, &c. But that was the extent of my knowledge. I had always cared for my own room, and told -Peg I would be the cleaning woman while she was cook. Mrs. Woods seemed really sorry to have me go. She said: “I hope, Miss Livingston, you have a good roommate; the right kind of a girl. You are very young to live in that way.” I explained my reason, dwelling upon the distaste I had for restaurant food. Also I could live more cheaply. She said no more, but when I left bade me good-by kindly. We had only one room and a large closet, Peg and I. We both slept on couch beds, so the room resembled a sitting room in the daytime. That is, ve pretended it did; although I know t fooled no one. We had two elec- ®ic stoves, and paid extra for the clectricity. Peg had told the truth. She could eook. How good the vegetables and yroiled chops tasted that first meal. 2eg was to keep the books, as we were ‘0 go fifty-fifty on everything. She vdded the cost of the dinner, and’ it wasn’t as much for both of us as the simplest dinner I could get at a res- taurant had cost me. “And no tips,’”’ Peg gloated. Peg told me ske often had company. Her young men friends. Would Bob come to see me now that I lived away from a rooming house? I wondered. Someway I couldn’t see Bob in that makeshift sitting room. Yet it was better than Mrs. Wood’s public parlor, where one never was sure of being ne. ‘Where did Nancy (Peg’s former roommate) go?” I asked. “She’s got a flat now, like Irene.” “You mean ‘ef “Yes, her fellow insisted she have one so he could come when he wanted to. Goodness knows I left them alone as much as I could. She thinks he'll marry her some day. But I'll bet she’s left flat. Then it’s the white lights for her. A girl gets soft when she lets a fellow take care of her. I’ve seen too much of that game. A wedding ring for me—first. They’re all the same Bab. Don’t let them fool you.” “They aren’t all like that,” I said. “Yes, they are! I’m no saint, Bab. 1 like a good time, and a girl can’t be too stand-offish if ske wants one. Kisses, petting parties don’t really count. And in New York you get left at the post if you don’t give the fellows something. Be a devil of a good fellow, but that’s all.” “Irene——” I said again. “She'll get hers some day. Harry is a queer bird. He’s got money, and Irene don’t have to work if she don’t want to. But she’s got old-fashioned folks somewhere. She works so they wont know.” I was learning fast. This New York —how different from my little home town, where no one ever heard of such affairs. Well it was New. York. I must do as others did if I wanted any pleas- ure. But as Peg did, I'd do. I’d never give myself to any man unless I had the ring—first. (Continued tomorrow.) | Right and Wrong in Black and White © VOGUE LACK and white is smart for spring —Anne and Annabelle both know that. But Annabelle, at the left, believes that you can’t have too much of a.good thing, while Anne, at the right, knows exactly when to stop. Observe Annabelle. Her dress is really very nice—in fact, it is the same model as Anne’s, in black crepe romain with a long jabot, lined in white. But it droops dismally in the baek and bulges in all sorts of places. Further- more, she has painstakingly bought a black and white hat, a double fox fur that consists of one black skin and one white, a black and white bag, earrings and a necklace of white pearls and jet beads. Her shoes and gloves are the worst of all—the shoes are Oxfords with patent leather toes and white kid heels, her gloves are white glace kid, with black embroidery and tassels on the cuffs, and her stockings are white! Anne began with the same dress, but hers is beautifully fitted. Her hat is a plain, smart little black felt, her pearls, her patent leather strapped shoes, and her very beautiful silver fox, are in the best possible taste. Her gloves and stockings are a neutral beige. “Isn’t it queer,” thinks Annabelle, “Anne always looks so well dressed, but she never seems to plan things out as ; oe “Poor dear,” thinks Anne, “she works so hard to be smart, and, of course, she always misses by miles. Some one ought to tell her that it is possible to over- do even the smartest color combination, and that a smart woman looks as though she had bought the right clothes and then forgotten about them —not as though she had worked hard for her effect.” (Copyright, 1927, by Vogue.) ‘ ‘not to quote them, | | WIVES OF TOMORROW such lovely articles that I am hoping you will write me some advice on a subject which has troubled me often. I have been married for five years and have three children. My husband and I get along nicely to- gether. But my trouble is I am at times jealous of him. Especially when at a dance—when he is extra nice to other women. I really do not think he means any harm—but I am _ too sensitive and it hurts me. He is always considerate of me but he knows I am jealous when he makes a fuss over other women. If I say anything about it—he only laughs and says you are s0 jealous you don’t want me to have a good time even. Now, I do want him to have a good time; but I get out so little that when I go I hate to have this jealousy spoil my. evening. Do please answer this small note of mine. For all your advice has been very good and I have been greatly benefited by it. Very gratefully, A READER. P. S—I like to know what to do to overcome this and as I am sure my husband can mean no harm by this—or do you think he does mean to be hateful. He always has been a Conduct and Common Sense — VV ANNE SINGLETON ...— —— about good and bad D* FRIEND—You have written breeding are questions I like to answer, Many people find them- selves today, through their money, in positions where, by their upbringing, they do not belong; and, for fear of not striking the right note, they strike the wrong one so loudly that they can hardly hear advice. Yet I long to ad- vise them. I came on some sentences in a book quite lately which are exactly the sort of thing I often try to tell in- quirers, and I think it would be a pity “She saw, cruelly contrasted, the immeasurable difference between good breeding and bad breed- ing; on one side, simple kindness, ab- sence of pretention, the dignity of com- plete naturdlness; on the other side, vulgar pretense, sham refinement, as- sumption and obtuseness.” The occa- sion was one where the mother and sis- ter of a girl acting as secretary to a great lady in London had taken advan- tage of the girl’s position in the house to force their acquaintance upon the lady. She—though surprised—was be- having as politely as she could, and they were showing off and being over elegant, boasting of fine friends, pre- tending that, as a rumor of her illness had reached them, they’d rushed over to inquire about her health, and mak- ing the girl (who was a real lady) thor- oughly ashamed of them. Here is a very good example of bad breeding. If the pushing mother and daughter had really been anxious, all they had to do was to ask for the girl and make their inquiries of her. But they were not anxious about anything beyond getting themselves into that house because they thought it a social asset to be on visiting terms, of no matter what sort, with the lady. You may be sure they were exhibiting their underlying meanness of soul with every word. To be sincere, self-respecting, considerate and sensitive enough to know when you are taking a liberty, are among the first requisites of good breeding. All of these were lacking in this instance. No genuine person, with any intelli- gence, is ever ill bred. Sense and sen- sitiveness will keep any one in the right way. You might be born in the gutter and bring the finest feelings to the highest cultivation, but not until you had ceased “to care where you were born or to wish to conceal it. (Copyright, 1927.) (Copyright. ) By FRANCES M’DONALD. great tease and joked a lot, Thanks for your advice; which you may give me. Does he mean to be hateful? Far from it! Indeed he must have a mar- velous disposition to continue good- natured and loving when you harbor such perfectly horrid thoughts and suspicions. To begin with, you must realize that it is really stupid for people not to enter into all the en- joyment any evening offers. And any person who sits in a room filled with people thinking solely of some one individual in that room is acting stupidly—to say the least. Besides such a person is neglecting to take advantage of the much needed social contacts offered by such an oppor- tunity. The jealous individual is in-. variably the one whose contacts and , interests are sadly limited. The men- tal horizon is limited, the perspective foreshortened the judgment warped. Eventually all physical attraction ceases through loss of the magnetism that lives only as it is fed by the magnetism of others. You must go out more. You must feel at a dance 45 if you were not even with your hus- band. You must be an entity instead of a part of his entity. When you are introduced to people, try to see in them the qualities that make them loved. Your husband is not possibly the only very attractive man at each dance you attend—bear that in mind—and enjoy yourself. By doing this you will avoid the moment when your husband no longer cares to take you out. That is the price most wives pay for the selfish- ness that they call love.

HE whole ideal of the feminine physique today is based upon slenderness. Don’t think that I am proffering this as any unique and brilliant discovery of my own; it is far too much a recognized truism for that. Neither -do I need to point out to you how the ideas and ideals of the world have altered in this regard -during the present century. Time was when pinched waists, bustles and balloon sleeves accentuated the characteristics of maturity. Nowadays, the whole purpose of dress ceems to be to create an effect of slimness and to make the figure seem immature. The Paris dressmakers have been an inestimable help to us in this regard. How cleverly they have manipulated lines and fullness in order to beautify the faminine silhouette! And now they are even employing color to the selfsame end. One famous young cou- turier—Lucien Lelong—has gone so far as to build-his entire sprirfg and sum- mer collection upon this theme, He calls the illusion “kinoptic”—that is, the dress is designed so as to look well in motion and also to bring out the effect of slenderness through its col- | BEAUTY AND YOU By VIOLA PARIS oring. It is well known that dark colors make the figure look slimmer than do light ones. However, women are not content to wear black or navy blue the year around. Sometimes this illusion of slenderness can be achieved through the use of several shades of the same color in combination—the compose effect. Again, it is realized in pastel shades of blue. This—the heavenly or spiritual color—is thought to give the feeling of lightest weight. Although the present-day mode is marvelously kind to women—tending to make them look divinely slim—it is scarcely fair to rely upon it alone. It is plainly our duty to do our share —to discipline the body and make it conform to~-the proper size and weight through a judicious program of diet and exercise. Some one recently wrote to ask me the “most comfortable way to reduce.” Reducing is not a com- fortable process. It is almost wholly dependent upon a strong will—the de- termination to renounce the easy, com- fortable, self-indulgent habits of Uv- ing. Diet and _ exercise—there's the answer. Make the muscles of the body work. Give up sweets, fats, and starches. You know the system just as well as I do—and it is up to you to put it into practice. (Copyright, 1927, by Vogue.)

The various laws of Moses kave been the bond which has held together the Jewish people for several thousand years. With few ex- ceptions, they have had greater vitality, individually and collectively, than the peoples among whom they have lived. That they had this superior vitality is due, in great if not in greatest part, to the fact that they had the Mosaic law end that they have usually obeyed it. Among the Mosaic laws were many that had to do witk group action. There were laws of group sanitation and group hygiene. There were many others that related to individual hygiene and sani- tation. Never in human history has there been so much so-called sump- tuary law as is found in the books of Moses. There are people who talk about so-called sumptuary laws with derision, as though they were newly discovered, Moses did not discover so-called sump- tuary legislation, but he developed the theme and used it extensively. When, however, Moses came to select ten themes for his commandments he left aside all sanitation and hygiene except mental hygiene, and to that he devoted the last of the commandments. The Moses commandments were largely negative in character, “Thou Shalt not” being the form used. . Dr. Bagby, of Georgia, uses the posi- tive form, more popular just now with pedagogues and psychologists—“Thou shalt” being his technique. ————————————————— SALT RISING Bread GENUINE GLUTEN Bread ARKER BAKERY 616 0th—-3128 14th—1408 N. ¥.

Amateur Play. a Plays First Nine in 33; “Crawford Takes _ 19-Hole Match. INEHURST, N. C., April 7 (By A.P.). Golf of a kind that ordinarily would win tournaments todey was not quite good enough in at least two of the four matches: in the second round of play in the United North and South amateur golf tournament. . The result was that Ira Couch, of Chicago, fell before the brilliant play- ing of George Voigt, of Washington: John.D., Ryerson, of Coopertown, N. Y., gave way to Joseph Crawford, of Pitts- burgh; John Dawson, of Chicago, lost to e Homans, of Englewood, N. J., and Richard .Wilson, Southern Pines, was defeated by. George T. Dunlap, Jr., New York. Voigt and Crawford, regarded here as probably the best two players in the tournament, will meet in‘ the semifinals tomorrow, and Homans and Dunlap will clash. Voist. continued his remarkable brand of golf today, going to the turn in 33 and with a-3-hole’ mar- gin over Couch, finishing the match on the sixteenth green, 4 and 2: Voight won the. first In par, but lost the second hole by overplaying the | green, and then’ again Went 1 up with a birdie 2: on ‘the 210-yard third. yard fourth when his mashie shot landed 3 feet from the pin and on the seventh -went three up by cutting around .a stymie for a par 3. Voigt won.the tenth in per 3 when Couch was over, but could not negotiate a stymie on. the thirteenth. A _ birdie four on the sixteenth ended it. Crawford. appears to be the extra hole star of the tournament. He yes- terday went 20 holes to defeat William C. Fownes, former national champion, and today after being five down at the tutn went to the ninetéenth to win over Ryersor. who had come to the turn in 32 strokes, four under par. Ryerson had turned in four birdies in the first nine. Crawford started his rally with a birdie 3 ‘on the twelfth, sinking 3 ‘putt from the edge of the green. He took the fourteenth with a birdie 4 ag Ryerson overplayed and on the _45%-yard sixteenth ran down a bir- die 3. He then took the seventeenth when Ryerson overdrove and evened it on the eighteenth with another birdie 3 as Ryerson ‘missed the halving putt. The nineteenth went to Crawford in par 4, when Ryerson got into a trap. Tigers Triumph, 7-2, Over Wichita Falls Wichita Falls, Tex.,April7 (By A.P.). The Detroit Tigers took the first game of the series with the Wichita Falis Texas League club here today, 7 to 2. Tavener, Fothergill and Heilman each poled a pair of hits for Detroit. Holloway pitched three innings and outside of a walk hurled perfect ball. Both Doyle and Collins wére nicked for @ run and three hits in three innings. Greenbrier to Stage Amateur Golf Meet White Sulphur Springs, W. Va., April 7 (By A. P.).—The seventh annual Mason and Dixon golf championship, open to all amateurs, will be played on the Greenbrier course here next week, starting with an eighteen hole qualify- ing round Wednesday. Thomas McWalter, Newark, N. J., last year’s Mason and Dixon champion, and J. Insley Blair, Tuxedo Park, N. Y., the runner-up, will be among the contest- ants. One eighteen hole round will be played each day, except the champion- ship final, which will be 36 holes over two courses. Pros on British Team Falter in Tournament Roehampton, Eng., April 7 (By A. P.). Abe ‘Mitchell, captain of the team of professional golfers which: will go to the United States next month to defend the Ryder cup, was the only member of that ‘team left in the Roehampton cup tournament tonight after match play had narrowed the field to four players. The other three survivors were F. C. Jewell, Ernest Whitcombe and H. C. Jolly. The semifinals will be played to- morrow morning and the final in the afternoon. Three other Ryder cup players fell by the ‘wayside in. today’s two rounds, played through wind, rain and mud. A. C..

Connie Mack’s Athletics are well for- ready to step into the vital infield post if. Eddie Collins’ legs fail’ him. The Phillies may not be going anywhere parvicularly in the pen- nant race, but in their new sec- ond sacker, Fresco ‘Thompson, they have one of the most highly-touted stars of the spring. “With ‘Thompson shining at second, Jimmy Wilson behind the plate and Hal Carlson in the box, the Phillies will be as tough as any club in the league to beat’—if you take the word of one. season’ | observer. But Carl- s0n,. unfortunately, can only ‘make it “tough” for the opposition about once a week. Frisch Hits 2 Homers, Ruth 1; ‘Yanks Lose Nashville, Tenn., April 7 (By A. P:).— In a flash of brillant batting, Frankie Frisch, Cardinal second baseman, hit two home runs and two doubles in four successive times at bat in the last game of the exhibition series between the Cardinals and the Yankees here today. Babe Ruth added another homer to his belt also. ‘The Cardinals tied the series by defeating the New Yorkers, 10 to 8. The deciding game was rained out, giving the teams four victories each. Rudolph Wins Arcadia Match; Plays Tonight George Rudolph, pocket billiard champion, defeated Joe Concannon, District star, in an exhibition match at the Arcadia parlors last night. The score was 164 to 60, in eighteen innings. Concannon. had the high run of 42. Andrew Dargan, 6-year-old cueist, ran ten balls in an exhibition: He will be on the program tonight, which will be featured by another 150-point clash be- tween Rudolph and Concannon. | EXHIBITION GAMES | (By the Associated Press.)

LEVELAND, April 7-—The New York Celtics are nearing to the world’s professional basketball championship as a result of their 28 to 20. victory over the Cleveland Rosen- blums here tonight in the second game of the series. They have to win but one more contest to clinch the honor. Tonight’s game drew 6,000 fans in spite of the fact the Rosenblums looked bad the night before. If the series were to be continued here instead of New York, where the third game is scheduled Baturday night, there probably would not be a corporal’s guard in attendance. For the Rosenblums played like school boys in the last half as the Celtics started pulling away from them. The Rosenblums started off as on Wednesday night with a whirlwind offensive which put them ahead by six points midway the first period. But then the Celtics again began familiar old rally and walked off the floor at in- termission on the front end of a 13-11 score. — * — i — ~ oy esa i" a, Jack Barry was the Celtics shoot- ing star. He eluded Nat Hickey in the second period for three field goals in quick succession, pulled difficult twist shots while travel- ing at full spsed, under the basket. His three fouls gave him a total of 9 points. Hickey, Meanwhile, was not doing 2 ba:. job himself, and scored. four field goals on sensational long shots in addi- tion to three fouls. He was leading scorer, but partially nullified his shoot- ing by allowing Barry to get away from him for close shots. Banks was the outstanding player ol the game for the first half, sifting through the Cleveland defense passing a la Holman and sinking a couple of long shots, but he seemed to leave it up to his fellow players in the next period and was content to make one foul ‘point.

Mandger May Forego Trip to New York Tomorrow. By FRANK H. YOUNG. WILE yesterday was a total loss for the Nats, as far as their competitive efforts against the Giants was concerned, the day brought some. satisfaction to Manager Harris in the way of good news from the.club physician about some of the team’s cripples. Harris’ own case probably is the most important to the Nationals at this time and the club physician ad- vised Bucky that there was a possi- bility that he would be able to play in next Tuesday’s opener, provided he passes up the trip to New York to com- plete the exhibition series with the Giants and stays home to undergo some strenuous treatments. The Nat leader, however, feels that his team needs him badly at this time and stated last night that he planned to stick with his men. It is possible, however, that he will be talked into changing his mind, in which event Tris Speaker would take over the manage- ment temporarily. The fact of the matter is, how- ever, that Harris is just about sat- isfied in his.own mind that noth- ing but a miracle will heal his smashed finger in four short days and he does not believe in miracles. He knows just how sore and maimed his finger is and does not expect to TRIS SPEAKER'S PLAY GAME’S BRIGHT SPOT; = _ LISENBEE NO PUZZE J e* — 4 ; : . 7 » 4 7 »~ > — * Aa y — ay , J * Hornsby, Roush * ‘ of Offensive. — ing Contest. By SHIRLEY L. POVICH, Sports Editor, The Post. ASHINGTON’S baseball team returned. yesterday and received a welcome. The New York Giants at American League park when Nationals arrived and they greated the / Washington team with old-fashioned Washington pitchers heartily. In the course of the home-coming game the Giants greeted every pitcher Washing- | ton sent to the mound with a barrage of nice, long base hits. Those w kept score to the end reported tha Giants won the game. A co ' of the books shows that the score’ ¥ 19 to 9 in favor of the New York team. The 5,000 baseball fans who braved the cold to see the 1927 edition of Manager. Harris’. baseball team saw a pretty good ball team with the x ception of the pitchers. The Wash- ington pitchers, Lisenbee, Jones, ‘Car- roll and Murray, were big and h and had nice pitching form, but they couldn’t fool the Giants. a. Things might have turned out ‘better for Washington if the team’s first. ty pitchers, Lisenbee and Murray, had ree sisted the temptation to. throw their now famous “center field”. ball.. This delivery is thrown in the same manner of most other pitches, but is unique that almost always it is driven back ¢ be back in uniform for at least an- other week and is reconciled to the fact. . Some time ago, ne told the: writer that he would be lucky if he was kept inactive no more than a week after the season started, and he is still sticking to his story. General’ Crowder, it now develops, has no ulcers in his stomach, but merely was threatened with the growth of ulcers and is now taking mild exer- cise and will be ready to hurl the opening game, if needed. Crowder, of course, is on a strict diet, but it is not one which is weakening him and he is taking his workouts regularly, al- though not strenuously. Yesterday before the game he gave every indication of having retained his stuff since he left the team in Tampa, and will be available, and able to go at top speed within a week is the report. Good progress also has been made by Walter Johnson, and the club physician states that there is a possibility of him being able to remove the cast from his broken leg within a week or ten days. After that it will be only a matter of time before the Old Master _works himself back into condition. Because Walter no longer may be classed as a youngster, the doctor will not make any predictions as to when it would be safe for him to toe the slab in a real game, but he intimated yesterday that it should be early in May. -Manager Harris declares that the veteran spitballer, Stanley Coveleskie, will do the Washington hurling in the opening game if he is ready, and this “if he is ready” part of the statement aroused the Pole’s ire yesterday. “Don’t worry about me not being there,” he shot back at Bucky, “for I’m O. K. right now.” According to the club physician, Harris is a bit over- optimistic about Coveleskie, but he agrees with the flinger that his muscle is no doubt but the moist-ball hurler will be completely cured of his trou- bles within the next three or four days. Judging from the performance shown by a quartet of the local pitchers in yesterday’s massacre, the news of the great progress being made by Johnson and Crowder was exceptionally cheer- ing. It is no secret that the Nats’ pennant chances depend practical- ly entirely on the work of their flingers and should Crowder be available and the Big Train be able to steam up sooner than was ex- pected, Washington’s prospects will be much brighter. The Harrismen again will entertain the Giants at‘the Georgia avenue sta- dium this afternoon and then the two outfits will board an early train for New York, where games will be played tomorrow and Sunday. Just what flinger will perform for the Giants today is not known, but Harris plans to call on Garland Brax- ton, who has shown some fine work in exhibition games already played. Bump Hadley wilh be held in reserve in the offing, but it is hoped . that he will not be needed.

He went to bat four times and smacked out three. clean hits in his first three attempts. . He gathered in all flies in his direction and drove in a couple of runs. ah Washington’s revamped team didn't do badly with the exception of the pitchers.

Myer, performing at third, showed a weakness on balls hit to his left and Bluege, at shortstop, made one. poor throw, but there were no serious short- comings. Stewart proved no misfit on second base. ? Costarring with Hornsby for the Giants was Ed Roush, he of Cincinnaff, who recently let John McGraw. sign him to a 3-year contract at $20,000 per annum. Reush did quite well. knocked out three hits. and stole ‘a couple of bases, including a theft of home which he executed neatly “with Rogers Hornsby in faking a double steal off Lisenbee in the fifth inning; Hughie McQuillan pitched for the Giants, and he was no puz- ‘ zle. While he was on the mound ~ Washington made a bid to match. the Giants’ slugging and for the.. first few innings were always in reach of the leaders. But after Fitzsimmons relieved McQuillan and Washington sent in some more _ of its promising pitchers, the Na-' = failed to keep in the run- ning. George Murray followed Lisenbee to the mound for Washington and he saw his offerings knocked in every direction, but chiefly to center field when hits meant runs. Jones followed Murray and Carroll followed Jones, and the Giants made no discriminations. They continued the assault on Jones and eased up just a bit with Carroll pitch- ing the final inning. Hornsby, Lindstrom, Roush and Far- rell especially feasted on the Wash- ington pitchers. With the exception of Farrell this group fattened its spring batting average with three hits each. Farrell did not get three hits, but he got four. In all, the Giants registered 24 safeties to 17 for Washington, Mickey O'Neil, called the weak sister of the Washington offensive, belied this appellation yesterday with three hits, sharing the Washington batting honors with Bluege and Speaker. a The series of twelve games: sched- uled between the Nats and the Giants finds the latter victors in seven and the Nats in two.

By AL DEMARER (Former Pitcher New York Giants) A sure fire practical joke at the, spring training camps is framing «a heavy date for one of the young sheik recruits, who falis for it through sheer vanity and egotism. The young sheik is told that a cer- tain beautiful young lady, who has been pointed out to him in the grandstand, wants to meet him at a certain house. There is, of course, no lady, and one of the players has been planted at the house of a friend with a revolver loaded with blank cartri When the innocent sheik arrives at ‘| the house with his box of candy under his arm and knocks on the door that evening the ball player planted there opens it with shouts of “So you're the guy running sround with my wife,” &c., and starts shooting. The recruit, scared of his life, dashes down the steps and into the street at a speed that would turn Paddock green with envy.

Two solemn young lawyers, both still in their twenties, were getting ready yesterday for a desperate attempt to ‘save the life of their client—a client old enough to be fi\eir father. If the lawyers— erick Flynn and Lindsay Carne, of A )xandria—fail in that attempt, Louls Fy reig, 44 years old, must go to the electric chair in ‘Richmond, Va., on July 7. If they succeed, those who followed Boersig’s trial will believe that a legal miracle has been wrought. Execution Postponed. Boersig was found guilty and sen- tenced to death Wednesday afternoon, after a two-day trial in the ancient courthouse at Fairfax, Va. He was ac- cused of killing the two small daugh- ters of Mr. and Mrs. George Ridgeway in the Ridgeway home on Telegraph road, outside of Alexandria, the after- noon of March 4. Attorney Flynn announced after the trial that he would note an appeal to the Virginia Supreme Court of Ap- peals in Richmond, and, in order to give him time for this, Judge Howard Smith moved the date of Boersig’s execution from May 7 to June 7. Problem for Wife. Flynn, who was graduated from the National Law school here two years ago, said yesterday that it would take him two or three days to prepare his appeal. Although the conviction of Boersig seemed inevitable, Flynn never gave up hope at the Fairfax trial that he might save him. “In his appeal, Flynn will] stress the fact that he was not given time to call all the witnesses for the defense. Mrs. Louis Boersig, wife of the con- demned man, was puzzling yesterday how she will be able to support herself and her four children if Boersig is taken from her. Though she admitted that he was brutal,; even maniacal, when he was drunk, she insisted that he was the “best man in the world” when he Was sober. Man Must Appear In Threat to Wife Mrs. Hattie L. Sewell, 151 Rhode Island avenue northwest, who says her husband, Samuel F. Sewell, 1720 Thir- teenth street northwest, threatened to -kill her with a pistol and by that act “christen that electric chair,” secured a rule against him yesterday in equity court requiring him to appear April 22 to show cause why he should not be restrained from carrying out the alleged threat. Mrs, Sewell, through Attorneys Shef- ferman and Aronson sued for a limited divorce.

HEGE ELECTED RECORDER Immediately after taking voluntary oath of office yesterday the citizens’ advisory council, to which four new members were elected last week, took steps to reconsider its indorsement of the Fitzgerald workmen’s compensation bill. It was this indorsement that cen- tered the fire of the trade bodies, un- affiliated with the Federation of Citi- zens Associations, on the council, and caused the election to turn on the question of reducing the number of Federal employes and increasing the number of business men in the council membership. The oath was administered to the nine members by Daniel E. Garges, sec- retary to the board of District commis- sioners, in the office of Commissioner Proctor L. Dougherty. A meeting of the council was held in the board room of the District build- ing. E. S. Hege was elected recorder, to succeed Harry N. Stull, who was not a candidate for reelection. The posi- tion of assistant recorder and treasurer was created and Kenneth P. Armstrong was elected to fill it. Then Chairman James G. Yaden told the other members that he expected the Fitzgerald and Underhill bills, tak- ing opposite views of workmen's com- pensation liability insurance, would be introduced again at the next Congress and that he would send copies to them for study, so that they could make up their minds which to indorse.

Employe for Data on Beverages. PAID $6,000, WOMAN SAYS The bribery case, in which Daniel J. Shields, millionaire brewer of Johns- town, Pa., is a defendant, will go to the jury today in criminal court No. 1 without the defendant himself hav- ing taken the stand. This case involves, according to the indictment, the sum of $2,100 which Shields is alleged to have paid to Miss Della M. Hayes, now Mrs. Della M. Evans, a stenographer in the prohibi- tion enforcement unit for information and reports concerning brewery inves- tigations, from April, 1923, to April, 1924. Mrs. Evans testified that she re- ceived altogether about $6,000 from Shields. The principal witness for Shields was Samuel A. King, an attorney of Salt Lake City, Utah, brother of Senator William H. King of that State, who came to Washington in April, 1926, and secured from Mrs. Evans, the principal witness for the government, an affi- davit in which she repudiated all of her testimony against Shields, which she gave in and out of court. Mr. King represented Shields in various matters and he appeared here after Mrs. Evans had sent an Easter postcard to Shields on which she begged for- giveness for having testified against him, according to Mr. King’s testimony. dence and was read to the jurors. In it Mrs. Evans complains of being trap- ped by a “Mr. Jones of New York” who paid her $500 for information concern- ing a Pennsylvania brewery. The $500 had hardly changed hands, the affi- davit stated, when agents George Gold- ing and John Cox appeared and ar- rested Mrs. Evans and the mysterious “Mr. Jones.” The affidavit states that Mrs. Evans was intimidated into giving information against Shields and that she afterwards testified against him to avoid being prosecuted herself. This affidavit and the testimony of Mr. King constituted the bulk of the evi- dence introduced on behalf of Shields. MORE DELAY ASKED FOR PHONE HEARINGS C. & P.
