The raid, which began shortly before 5 o’clock in the afternoon, was carried out under.the authority of a search warrant issued by a Guildhall] magis- trate upon request of Whitehall offi- cials, who presented evidence designed to convince the magistrate that the laws of the country had been violated, and that on this account drastic. steps were deemed necessary in the interest of public safety. The raid on the soviet house, the Daily Mail says it learns, was due to information which led Sir William Johnson-Hicks, the home secretary, to believe Arcos to have possession of cer- tain British state documents which should not properly have passed out of the possession of the British. govern- ment. The Westminster Gazette says that the Arcos raid was a sequel to repre- sentations made to the home secretary Wednesday by Sir Wyndham Childs and other police heads regarding alleged political propaganda. : Sir William Johnson-Hicks, the sec- retary, authorized the police to appl immediately to a magistrate for a search warrant.

The employes of Arcos, a corporation which controls Russian trade, as well as the employes of the trade delega- tion, were taken completely by surprise. Before they had time to realize what had happened the building from attic to cellar was in the hands of detectives, who endeavored : to gain control of papers and documents and took meas- ures to prevent any slipping from their grasp. Consternation prevailed among the clerks and typists, girls and young men, and for more than an hour not one of them was permitted to leave the premises.

New Orleans, May 12 (By A. P.)— The first break in the levee system guarding. central and southern Louis- jana came today when an embankment along Bayou Rouge crumpled near Cot- tonport. It released a part of the in- land sea which had spread over north- eastern Louisiana. Grave apprehension was felt for a 20-mile stretch of levee along the big bend section of Bayou des Glaises. The water had mounted to within a few inches of the tops of the embankments and at points was trickling over. The effect of the Bayou Rouge break was problematical. The New Orleans weather bureau renewed its warning that every precautionary measure should be taken along the Mississippi in the lower valley to guard against stages previously forecast. The crest of the flood still. was in the Tensas basin today, moving slowly southward. It remained stationary at Allulah, but was rising at Winnsboro, Waterproof and Ferriday as it moved on the ramparts protecting the south central portion of the State below Bayou des Glaises. Most of Residents Out. Authorities said that the break proba- bly would not affect a large area and that most of the inhabitants and live stock already had been removed. Different’ opinions were expressed as to the course the water would take. Engineers said the natural drainage systems should take care of it and that its effect would Be local, only Cotton- port and other communities in that im- mediate vicinity being affected. They believe a portion of it would flow into Indian Bayou, return to Bayou Rouge and then flow down the Atchafalaya basin into the Gulf of Mexico. The crevasse was said to be 500 feet wide, with a stream of water from 2 to 3 feet deep flowing through toward Bayou Choupique and Plaucheville, Evergreen and Bunkie. None of the three towns was believed in danger and a protection levee at Cottonport was sufficient to hold the water out of that place. Guards were withdrawn from the levees in the neighborhood of Bordlcan- ville and the work of topping the em- bankments halted after the crevasse at Cottonport because of the danger of flood waters from the break. Rains Increase Danger. That part of the State faced the dou- ble threat of rains and flood water and topping along the Big Bend stretch proceeded slowly, with workmen un- able to labor on the levee tops because of the danger of the crown toppling into the Bayou under the softening in- fiuence of the rains.

Lindbergh is 25 years old, is a fcrmer St. Louls-Chicago air mail pilot and is flight commander of the Missouri national guard. The aviator appeared perfectly fresh and’in good spirits. When he climbed out of the machine at the field he re- sponded to questions concerning the likelihood of an early hop-off across the Atlantic. Exactly when he would go, he said, “depends upon a.great many things.” Shortly after his arrival, Lindberg announced that he would not hop off for Paris either tonight or tomorrow. “I do not know just how soon lI will go,” he said, “but I will not be ready -to leave by -tomorrow and my departure will not be contingent upon the action of any one else.” St. Louis, May 12 (By A.

Ae re Li LARGER COMPANIES ANNOUNCE REDUCTIONS #: ( lap Oil First to Cut Rate to ~ Public; Standard Down to 19 Cents. . Washington motorists will save about $200,000 a month during the gasoline price war which quietly began last Monday - between the large gasoline companies in the District, according i Paul Himmelfarb, president of the enn Oil Co. They are getting their gasoline at 6 or 7 cents less than Baltimore motorists, he declared last Right. According to Mr. Himmelfarb, his company began the hostilities some time ago with a 2-cent reduction in the price of gasoline which was match- ead last Monday by the Standard Oil Co., making a price of 19 cents a Mlion. The Penn Oil Co. retaliated eee the price another 2 cents rday. The Standard Oil Co, is ex- F pected to drop another 4 cents today, mmelfarb said. John Z. Walker, Dis- trict manager for the Standard Oil Co., was said last night to be out of town by members of his household. Mr. Himmelfarb declared that the larger companies had been making re- bates to small dealers and winning them from his company and that the Penn Oil Co. decided to make its re- bates to the public. The Texas Co. and the Tidewater Oil Co., both wholesale firms, also have eg dropped their prices to conform to the B service stations, ain lower levels set by the other compa- nies. The American Oil Co. and the Golumbia Oil Co., which maintain also are involved in the war. It is predicted by station managers that the war can not last long, but that the motorist will be the beneficiary during the battle. The Standard Oil Co. last night de- nied that there is a price war on but admitted that the retail price of gaso- ‘tine at their service stations will be dropped 2 cents today making their price the same as that quoted by the Penn Oil Co., 17 cents a gallon. The wholesale price will not be affected, it was said. Increase Is Reported In Motor Car Deaths y Although automobile fatalities are <= y ee er 7 Pe ee ee ™ _ = slightly lower for the four-week period ended April 23 than the corresponding od in 1926, the deaths for the year ended April 23 still exceed the deaths for the year ended April 24, 1926, the report compiled by the Department of Gommerce covering automobile fatali- ties’ in 78 large cities of the United States shows. Altogether there have been 103 deaths from automobile accidents dur- ing the last year, and 85 the year be- fore in Washington. During the four- week period ended April 23 there were five deaths, and six for the same period in 1926.

SEALOCK KIDNAPED, POLICE NOW BELIEVE Parents of Boy, Missing 21 Days, Also Doubt That He Was Drowned. Special to The Washington Post. Front Royal, Va., May 12.—The dis- appearance of Douglas Sealock, 9 years, missing. since April 21, remains a mys- tery. Just before the severe storm swept this section on that evening, sev- eral persons saw the boy running. to- ward the bridge which spans the Shen- andoah river, over which he had to cross going to and from school. His book was found the next morning in the middle of the bridge. The river has been dragged to no avail. In the last few days the police have learned that at the time of Sealock’s disappearance a boy was seen evidently struggling to leave an automobile néar the bridge, where the driver had halted to inquire about the route to Indiana. Police, as a result of. this new de- velopment, are inclined to believe that Sealock was kidnaped, to which théory the boy’s parents also adhere. CAPITAL IS HELD LAX IN REFUSE DISPOSAL Cherry Hill Incinerator Can Not Be Improved, E. B. Kay Tells Engineers. Washington is far behind most cities of the United States in the matter of refuse disposal, Edgar B. Kay, United States army sanitary section, told the American Association of Engineers last night in speaking on “The Present Refuse Disposal Problem and Its Local Application.” He asserted that the Cherry Hill in- cinerator is crude and can not be im- proved. The disposal of refuse is an engineering problem and should be recognized as such by both public and municipal officials, h said, adding that despite the strenuous efforts made since 1919 to better the situation in Washington, Congress has failed to act. The association favored continuation of the real estate tax rate at $1.80 in order that’ the “District might finance necessary improvements.” Anchorage Tea Room Acquired by League The Junion League will acquire the tea room of the Anchorage apartments, 1900 Q street northwest, for its new clubhouse and offices, it was an- nounced yesterday following the annual meeting of the organization at the residence of Mrs. George Hewitt Myers, 2310 S street northwest.

A $500,000 headquarters building for the American Institute of Architects, the design of which will represent the genius of 3,000 of the nation’s great- est architects, is to be erected around the famous old Octagon house at Eighteenth street and'New York avenue 4 northwest. The institute, which is meeting here for its sixtieth annual convention, adopted a resolution at last night’s session authorizing its building com- mittee to raise the money and to go ahead with plans for the proposed new building. The Octagon house, which was used as the executive mansion by President Madison and Dolly Madison after the burning of the White House by the British in 1814, is now owned and used as a headquarters by the American In- stitute of Architects. However,‘it is too small, and there is a great need for a new building to house a library, offices and convention hall. The famous old octagon-shaped house itself will not be disturbed, the new building being erected so as to serve as a background for it. To Be Best in Architecture. The new building will represent all that is best in the art of architecture in America, and for that reason Milton B. Medary, president of the institute, has called on all membérs to offer sug- gestions in regard to its design and construction. Exploitation of the land here must be stopped if the plans for beautifying Washington are to be realized; the institute declared in a resolution adopt- ed yesterday. This truth, the resolu- rm said, applies to other cities as we The institute authorized a study in this and other centers of the problem of land developmént and regulation. The study will be in charge of Henry Wright, of New York, who will report his finding and urge appropriate action at the 1928 convention. The resolution adopted yesterday said: “To facé the issue and meet the requirements of city planning not only must the size of the houses and lots be regulated but also the type and quality of architecture. This problem will reflect tremendously upon the architecture of the future.” Disgrace to Any City. New York city, Mr. Wright said, ts suffering from a “scourge of small- house building that is an absolute dis- grace to any city.” The city, he said, is making a fight to replace its East Side slums, “but this is as nothing compared with the fight it must make against small, cheap, poorly constru¢ted buildings.” United action by the 57 chapters of “to insure the future greatness of the National Capital” was urged in the report of the committee on the plan of Washington, presented to the convention yesterday by Horace W. Peaslee, of this city. He urged his colleagues to acquaint their represent- owe in Congress with the situation ere. Mr. Peaslee spoke feelingly about a rider on the public buildings bill which, he said, permitted a “hodge-podge” of hotels, office buildings and shops to be erected around Lafayette square. Would Save Lafayette Square. “The need is urgent,” said Mr. Peas- lee. ‘The situation as regards the White House and Capitol frontages stands as a challenge to one of the most im- portant elements of the MacMillan plan. The alternatives are abandenment of the —t immediate purchase of the properties involved, or subsequent pur- chase with millions of dollars added in improvements. “Let us not think of the effort, of the cost, or of the thankless task. Let us rather regard it as our unique privi- lege to grasp decades in advance the vision of a glorious Capital to be; and our great opportunity, our greater obli- gation, to work for the realization of that vision.” “And let us keep humbly in mind how little we can do compared to the offering in genius, in enthusiasm, in self-sacrificing, of the young French- man who relinquished a not incon- siderable city practice to seek a vision in the wilderness, who wrought that vision within a mere twelvemonth and went to his grave without honor or re- ward because he anticipated ‘the ulti- mate greatness of the nation and fought for his convictions. “Let us not lend our support to any casual memorial to Charles Pierre L’En- fant until by our own efforts we have brought to a full realization his vision of 136 years ago. Each Chapter Must Do Its Part. “If each chapter of the American In- stitute of Architects will do its part in raeching all of its representatives in Congress.and in stating the facts clear- ly and frankly, its technical advice and its weight as a constituent group will be heeded. “The notable contributions of many eminént architects toward the develop- ment of Washington have created the impression that the profession as a whole is watchdogging the Capital’s de- velopment as a patriotic service. We like to believe that this is the case, but it is not fully borne out by our works. As a profession we have accomplished much for Washington, but the efforts of those who work afe not iistequen Sly nullified by the shortcomings those who are supposed to be waited and are not. “We are in no position to stir up the public or to assail the shortcomings me Congress, while many of us who ht to understand and to flame with i ignation ignore conditions or are in- different to ~— ‘It will be recalled by delegates to he rt a convention that the ch of this Secs was en special ree ey Reael opts of the public buildings bill, ye with diré } Anna results.

The prize is $50 in gold, given annually by John J. Noonan. The contestants will compete indi- vidually and will discuss the question, “Resolved, that the District of Colum- bia should have representative govern- ment,” and are free to choose which- ever side of the question appeals to them. Students who are to compete are John R. Fitzpatrick. Patrick Ger- aghty,.-Emmett Jones, Miss Louise Kel- ly, Frederick Roy, John Scott and George Titterton. Judges will be Charles W. Darr, State deputy of the Knights of Columbus; the Rev. Francis xX. Cavanaugh, State chaplain, and Frederick J. De Sloovere, professor of law in Georgetown university. War’ Patients Need Picture Show Funds War-torn veterans who are patients in Walter Reed, Mount Alto and the Naval hospitals will lose a part of their meager enough: entertainment unless funds for the continuation of the mov- ing picture shows which have been sponsored by the Knights of Columbus are forthcoming from some source not yet discovered. The shows will be discontinued by the Knights of Columbus in July be- cause of lack of funds, Charles Reimer, president of the American War Veterans club, announced at a meeting of the club in the Mayflower hotel last night. The shows have been given once a week in each of the hospitals at a cost of $1,600 a year,.he said. He proposed the Veterans club sponsor the shows. Such an action was outside the func- tion of the club, it was objected, though members offered to contribute individually. He announced his pur- pose to séek some other organization to take over the conduct of the shows. Ice Firm’s Creditors Fight Sale in Court Creditors of the Washington Ice Manufacturing Co. began proceedings yesterday in equity court to set aside the purchase of this concern by the American Ice Co. on March 4. Charges of irregularities in the plac- ing of trusts upon the property of the Washingtoh ice concern and in the drawing of excessive commissions are contained in the petition of the credit- ors. The validity of the deed of trust, under which the property and assets of the Washington ice concern was sold, is attacked by the creditors. Fourth Precinct Cell Gets Lone Prisoner The cell room at the Fourth precinct station called ‘“‘Cherry—prison” for the first’ man incarcerated, last night missed by half an hour a record that was hoped by police there to have§ stood for all time. ‘Usually the cells in “Cherry prison” are well filled between the hours of 4 and 12 o’clock at night. But yesterday was slow. Several persons were arrest- ed early in the evening, but deposited collateral before reaching the cell room. The cells were empty for the first time in six years, until 11:30 o’clock last night, when a man charged with drunk- enneéss arrived.

Military Leaders Scout Belief Indians Will Attack, but _ Guns Are Placed. WARLIKE PREPARATIONS VIEWED FROM U. S. SIDE 100 Rebels Killed in Jalisco; Business Men Reject Moratorium Plan. Nogales, Ariz.. May 12 (By A. P.).— General headquarters of the Mexican federal army, prosecuting the rebellion movement of Yaqui. Indians, today laughed at the report that Yaquis in- tended to attack Nogales, Sonora. The military authorities declared that the border town is sufficiently fortified to defeat any attempt of the Indian rebels to invade the community. Gen, Francisco Manseo, federal com- mandant in the Yaqui war, said prior to his departure for Ortiz, Sonora, where a body of 14,000 federal troops is located, that the Nogales garrison could muster 3,500 men if needed to repulse attacks by the Indians. Gen. Manseo stated that he leaves Nogales “perfectly armed and equipped,” but added that he held no fear of a Yaqui raid upon the border city. Despite the reassurance from official sources, residents of Nogales appear noticeably perturbed over the report current last night that Chief Luis ¢ WOMAN, “MISSING” FROM SHIP, IS FOUND Mrs. Marshall, Believed Lost in Bay, Held With Norfolk Man at Cleveland. Cleveland, May 12 (By A. P.).—Mrs. Mary B. Marshall, who disappeared from the Old Bay State line steamer State of Virginia, March 21, today was found in Cleveland, where she is being held as @ material witness in a Federal law violation case. H. Staples, 40, Norfolk, also is being held in connection with the charge. The couple were arrested here last Tuesday by Federal officials after they Matuz, at the head of 1,000 warriors, } had been traced through letters received would advance upon the city if it was not. surrendered by federal military forces. before Sunday. Defense Preparations Go On. Preparations for the defense of the city continue despite: emphatic denials by Mexican military authorities of pos- sibilities of an attack upon Nogales. Today no fewer than fourteen gun po- sitions could be counted on the hills ovérlooking the city, while it is esti- mated that more than 800 federals are heavily entrenched at regular inter- vals in a semicircular line of defense, this body continuing sentinel duty. A short engagement was officially report- ed as having occurred yesterday, near Camp Cicharcari, southeast of here, in which the casualty list was not made known. , However, it was stated that six Yaqui women, four children and an old man surrendered after they had been prom- ised safety by the camp commander. The official statement says they were transported to Hermosillo, capital city of Sonora, which is a centralization point for prisoners of war. From there the prisoners probably will be moved to Toluca, Mexico. While no major change in the rou- tine of American military activities has occurred since the presence of Yaqui tribesmen in the vicinity was first reported a fortnight ago, a patrol was put out yesterday under orders of the intelligence department.

DOROTHY MACKAYE ADMITS GIN DRINKING (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) before Kelly appeared at the Raymond home and engaged in a fist fight with the dead actor. She said he had known Kelly ten or twelve years, having met him in New York city. Mrs. Raymond related that she yis- ited Kelly’s home with Miss Helen Wil- kinson, a friend, and others about an hour after her husband returned home on Friday, April 15, and that she again visited there the following afternoon with other people. The widow denied that Kelly ever discussed her husband with her. She said he simply asked how things were at home, and she replied “about as usual.” The defense failed in an attempt to show that Ethel Lee, negro maid in the Raymond home, who yesterday detailed the fist fight between Kelly end Raymond, had been entertained in Tia Juana, Mexico. by the district at- torney’s office. : On an objection by the State, the court ruled that it was a matter of record that the witness was in custody of a policewoman at the time. Miss Lee preceded Raymond’s widow on the stand for the resumption of cross-examination interrupted by the adjournment of court yesterday. She was given a photograph and asked by the defense if she identified it. She replied it was a photograph of Raymond. ‘ The photograph, with the subject stripped to the waist and posed to em- phasize his chest and arm muscles, was passed among the jurors. A’second negro maid and a Japanese house boy were announced as on the State’s list of witnesses to be called to furnish new evidence. Baltimore, May 12 (By A.

St. .John’s, Newfoundland, May 12 (By A. P.).—Whether the great island colony of Newfoundland, long known as the “sentinel of the St. Lawrence,” holds the key to the mystery surround- ing the disappearance of Capts. Nun- gesser and Coli, French transatlantic fliers, is a question which its inhabi- tants are bending every energy to an- swer. The problem hinges on sounds heard in the air by six residents of Har- bor Grace, second largest town in New- foundland, last Monday morning. , Without knowledge then that the flight was in progress, each of the six has reported hearing “sounds like an airplane” passing overhead in the vic- inity of Harbor Grace between 9 and 10 o’clock in the morning. The list of witnesses includes: Mrs. Hinto, wife of the manager of the Imperial Cable Co.; Mrs. R. 8. Munn, Peter O’Brien, John Stapleton and a man named Moriarity, field work- ers, and a woman living north of the town. Quizzed by Judge. Questioned by a local magistrate, O’Brien and Stapleton stuck firmly to their. story that they had disvinctly heard the whirring of an airplane motor. The sound seemed to come from the northwest. Because of a dense fog they were unable to see anything. The two men were in different parts of the town at the time. Mrs. Hinto also said that she plainly heard the sound and was sure that it was that of an air- plane engine. Sir William, Horwood, acting gover- nor of Newfoundland, received reports of these stories, "as did Hon. William Higgins, attorney general. After hear- ing from Magistrate Casey, of -Har- bor Grace, the result of his examina- tion of O’Brien and Stapleton, Mr. Hig- gins ordered him to extend his inves- tigation over the whole area on the northwest side of Conception bay, which separates Harbor Grace and other towns from the southernmost peninsula of Newfoundland, on which St. John’s is located. Los Angeles Out Today. Lakehurst, N. J., May 12 (By A. P.).— Because of low visibility the proposed flight of the naval dirigible Los An- geles to search for the French fliers, Capts. Nungesser and Coli, was post- poned today. Lieut. Comdr. Charles E. Rosendahl said tonight that he believed weather conditions would permit the ship to take off at dawn tomorrow. The ves- sel will fly as far and as long as day- light will permit. May Be in Labrador. (By the Associated Press.) Naval hydrographers decided yester- day that if the missing French aviators, Nungesser and Coli,,are still alive they probably are somewhere in Labrador, lonely refugees in the densely wooded and mountainous wilderness. Their decision was based on the as- sumption that there was no motor failure om the paft of the airplane White Bird, that the wind velocity dur- ing the flight took the aviators to the north of Newfoundland and that the machine’s altimeter, because of changed conditions, did not cause them to crash against icebergs or strike land obstruc- tions. + — A report given to Secretary Wilbur late yesterday emphasized that the winds which prevailed in the north At- lantic at the time of the flight, on the whole, were the most favorable of any recorded in recent years. On the other hand, however, it w the belief of the Naval Secretary’s ad- visers that if the White Bird failed to reach the Labrador coast there was little, if any, chance that it still was afloat. The presumed course, plotted on the basis of official information given by the naval attache im Paris and known weather elements, would have taken the fliers beyond Newfoundland’s most northern boundaries and into a region where ice floes are numerous and the land for the most part moun- tainous, densely wooded and’ virtually uninhabited. : Is Blow to Optimism. The report caused officials to give up much of the hope they had previ- ously entertained that Nungesser and Coli had taken a more southerly course, one that would have led them search of waters | ments. Orrin J. McM sey, in charge of aviation chart con- struction for the navy. The two experts, after pointing out various condition which might have caused the Frenchmen to swing to the north of their intended route, said it was possible that they encountered t-e¢ coast of Labrador about Sunday midnight or shortly thereafter. “In the darkness,” the report added, “they probably were not expecting to sight land so early and might have passcoad over the coast line and pro- ceeded inland without knowing it. Several Possible Results. “In this case, quite a number of pos- sibilities are apparent. First, they may have continued on until daylight and discovered themselves inland over an unknown country. Second, they may have been forced down by stress of weather inland. Third, they may have crashed into the side of a moun- tain. “Their best chance of survival, the one to which, knowing the courage and resourcefulness of Nungesser and Coli, we cling as our last faint hope, is that Nungesser made a safe landing in one pf the many lakes which dot the inte- rior of Labrador. If this be true, weeks or even months may pass before they ‘are able to make their way to civiliza- tion.” Filene Will Give $1,000 For Finding Lost Fliers New York, May 12 (By A. P.).—A. Lincoln Filene, Boston merchant, of- fered through his attorney here today a reward of $1,000 to the person or persons whose search for Nungesser and Coli, missing French fliers, results in their discovery or rescue. IMPEDING LAWYERS ATTACKED BY TAFT (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) cise of the writ of certiorari we are accomplishing what we ‘hoped by the change.” In its restatement of marriage laws as formulated by Joseph H. Beale and Austin W. Scott, which it was in- dicated would be accepted by the in- stitute, the following principles were laid down: A marriage.is valid if the require- ments of the State where the mar- riage takes’ place are complied with. A marriage is invalid if any essential requirement of the marriage law of the State in which the marriage is celebrated is not complied with, A marriage entered into without any for- mal.ceremony is valid only if the acts creating it took place in a State in which such a marriage is valid. A marriage by proxy, if permissible where celebrated. is valid only if the absent party consents to the marriage. A Marriage celebrated in a foreign coun- try, before a consul, is valid only if it is performed in accordance with the law of the country where the mar- riage is performed; or in accordance with a treaty to which that country is’ a party. A marriage on board a private ves- sel on the high seas is valid only if the law of the flag is complied with; and a marriage on board a private ves- sel in port is valid if the law of the port is complied with. Custom Among Nomadic Tribes. If one of the parties to a marriage is a member of a nomadic tribe. and the marriage takes place where the tribe is at the time located, and in accordance with the tribal law, the marriage is valid. If the requirements of the law of the State where a mar- riage is celebrated are complied with, the marriage is valid‘except in case of polygamous marriages; incestuous mar- riages between persons as closely re- lated as brother anc sister, and mar- riages between persons of different races where such marriages are at the domicile of the contracting parties re- garded as odious. Such marriages are valid even though the parties to the marriage went to that State to. evade, the requirements of the law of their domicile. : ; . A State will give to a lage cre- ated by. the law of another State the same effect it gives to a marriage by. its own law, save where the effect of a mar- riage is offensive to its policy. A State which does not allow polygamy will re- fuse to grant a divorce to a patry to a hich permite polygamy.

London, May 12~-The fashionable world of London, including Prime Min- ister Stanley Baldwin, members of the British cabinet, princes, princesses. peers, famous hostesses, soldiers and sailors, attended the brilliant wedding in St. Margaret’s church, Westminster. of Miss Mary Ashley, one of Great Britain’s wealthiest heiresses and the sister of Lady Louise Mountbatten, to Capt. Alex Stratford Cunningham Reid. a conservative member of parliament. The wedding was one of. the out- standing social events of the London season. Twenty policemen kept back the crowds storming the famous church. The bride was given away by her father, Lieut. Col. Wilfrid Ashley, min- ister of transport. The bride and her sister probably are the wealthiest heir- esses in England, having inherited £6,000,000 under the will of their grand- father, the late Sir Ernest Cassel. Capt. Reid, the bridegroom, is the private sec- retary to Col. Ashley.

BRITISH SEARCHING OFFICES OF SOVIET (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.) the officials were detained and closely questioned by Scotland Yard men throughout the evening. Sir Wyndham Childs, of Scotland Yard, who was in charge of the raid, informed the Associated Prss late to- night, “No arrests yet.” Other offi- cials said the search was likely to con- tinue all night and tomorrow, but none gave any intimation of the character of the evidence sought. In the evening the officials were as- sembled in the large rooms and sub- jcted to a personal search, all turning their pockets inside out, while the police took charge of any of the con- tents of the pockets which they thought might interest them. Threaten to Blow Safes. The ‘Scotland Yard men encountered difficulty in opening the safes and threatened to blow them open, but upon the promise that those possessing the combinations would be brought for- ward immediately, the threat was not carried out In searching several rooms, according to the police, they smelled smoke and found some ashes of papers, and re- ports reached them that numerous doc- uments were burned as soon as the raid began. But trade delegation of- ficilals vehemently denied this asser- tion, saying that the police were wel- come to see every paper and document in their possession. At midnight many of the offices were’ ablaze with electric hts, with the curtains drawn, but ice were darting here and there behind them, their shadows visible from the streets. A. P. Rosengolse, Russian charge G@’affaires in Londoa, accompanied by First Secretary D. V. Bogomolov, went to the foreign office tonight in order to present Sir Austen Chamberlain, for- eign secretary, a protest against the raid conducted by police this afternoon on Arcos House, the headquarters of the soviet trade delegation. Long a Strained Feeling. Although there have been no open manifestations in recent weeks of un- satisfactory relations between Great Britain and soviet Russia, there has long been a strained feeling because of alleged communist propaganda in Great Britain. Last February the British govern- ment sent a note to soviet Russia pro- testing against bolshevist propaganda directed at Great Britain, particularly during the general strike in May, 1926. The note warned against the “contin- ued notoriously junsatisfactory | rela- tions” between th2 two governments and declared that no improvement was possible so long as the rulers of soviet Russia persisted in publicly defaming Great, Britain or advocating a world revolution. The soviet government, replying, de- nied the existence cf propaganda by responsible officials against the British government and stated that anti-Brit- ish sentiments expressed by individual Russians were matched by antisoviet expressions by Britisn subjects, some of them in official life.

But Judd had a very busy day. He brightened considerably in the morn- ing when it was reported that Mrs. Isabella Gray, the wife he betrayed to go philandering with Mrs. Snyder, would call on him. Later, however, when he learned that his wife did not feel able to carry off the visit. he did not appear especially dejected. But he did insist that he is reconciled with his wife. 3 In the afternoon, when Adjt. Ag- nes McKernan, the Salvation Army’s prison angel, called to pray with him, he became very serious and devout. She paged through the Bible and read him comforting passages. In talking to Gray of the after-life, the Salvation lassie told Judd that he would see Ruth in the hereafter.. His | reply, according to the lassie, was only: “I have made my peace with God and I do not fear the hereafter.” Fight for Lorraine in Sight.

On the opposite side of the hearth Lewis Hayes smoked _ reflectively. Harvey was sprawled on a fur rug in front of the fire, graceful in his care- ' less pose, his blond hair shining in the firelight. The rug was an addition to the fur- mishings of the household. Christine had bought it that the baby, Harvey Junior, might have a warm nest in ‘Blessings on thee, little man,’”’ his young father had remarked when he saw the rug. “Now, I'll have a place to smoke in comfort. But your fond mother would never have thought to order it for me,” On this particular evening, Harvey _Jay stretched at full length, looking like ‘ splendid young Siegfried. Lewis was hunched up comfortably, his arms en- circling his kneés. His eyes watched every motion of Christine’s hands, She was the same Christine, slim, small, exquisite. She looked as happy as ever, but it was a quieter happiness, @ more serious happiness. Happiness that watched and listened for those dearer to her than herself. Harvey reached up and took one of her hands from her needlework, holding it against his lips. But she disengaged her hand abrupt- ly and leaned forward in her chair. “Listen,” she commanded. “Wasn't that the baby?” She sprang up, her sewing tumbling unheeded on Harvey’s head, and ran up the stairs. Harvey laughed, as he extricated him- “I'll be awfully grateful, if you ‘can put it across for me, old 3 man.” self from a tangle of linen and em- broidery ‘silk. “Absolutely nutty about the kid, Lew. Afraid to trust the nurse for a minute. I can’t drag her out of the house at night, even if her own mother comes to stay with the baby. Afraid the place will burn up or something.” “Isn’t a mother always like that with her first child?” remarked Lewis, with a smile. “She'll get over it after a while.” . “I hope so.” _ “You're spoiled. petting yourself.” “You bet I do!” “Well, darling.” You want all the declared Harvey. He turned to greet The Practical Graduation F rock } A VOGUE J HEN you graduate from high school you will probably grad- uate in white and the dress that you wear may be something that you will never wear after graduation day or one that you will wear for the rest of the summer. The dress that Vogue has sketched falls into the latter class, for it is equally smart for the grandeur of graduation or for the informality of summer afternoons in the country. It is a very chic dress in itself—the ‘pleated bolero, the pleated apron on the skirt, the white girdle knotted in a soft bow, are youthful, flattering and smart. It is one of those adaptable dresses that may either be quite for- mal or beautifully informal, according to its accéssories. At the left you see it as you would wear it for the grad- uation exercises. Your slippers are ' dhigh-heeled, of white kid. There is a big “willow” flower of the material on the shoulder, and you wear. two strands of pearls. The effect is not fussy, by.any’ means, but: it is decided- ly feminine and very graceful and } charming. In the sketch at the right the same dress is shown with less formal acces- sories. You could wear it all day long in the summer so Iong as you did not take the short sleeves to town! The little’ hat is of bright green felt, the bag is an envelope of silk, woven in brightly colored pattern with green predominating, the shoes are of white kid with a little border of green on the straps. This, too, is an example of the. new-method of using colored ac- cessories. .An all green hat, bag and shoes would have been far too obvious, but when the hat is greén and the bag and shoes have a touch of green, the éffect is .charming, harmonious and subtle.

She ruffled his hair and smiled upon him, Then, placidly resuming her sew- ing, she turned to Lewis: “Lew, you haven’t said a word about yourself, all ‘evening. Tell me—have you discovered the ‘Great formula’ yet? He took his pipe from between his lips. vir think I have,” he answered quietly. “Holy Cat!” Harvey sat up with a jerk. “Why didn’t you tell me?” “I’m telling you now,” smiled Lewis. “I wasn’t sure at first. I'd made s0 many failures before that I didn’t want to brag.” Harvey was on his feet. “How? When? What? Good heavens, man, can’t you see I’m eaten up @#vith curiosity?” Lewis reached into his pocket. “I’ve got some of the dope here. I'll show it to you, if you like.” “If I like!” Harvey took him by the arm and piloted him to a table, He dragged up a reading-lamp and two chairs. : “Fire!”. he commanded. Lewis spread out his papers. “I dare say,” remarked Christine, “that it’s no use my trying to listen. It’ll be too technical for me.” “You bet, honey,” said Harvey absent- ly, his eyes already eagerly scanning Lewis’ notes, So Christine went on with her sewing, one ear listening for a sound from the nursery, scarcely conscious of | the voices of the two men at the table, until Harvey leaped up. “You've got it, Lew! You have!” Lewis leaned back in his chair. His quiet eyes were alight. There was a slight flush on his thin cheeks. “I hope so,” he said, earnestly. Christine Jumped up and ran to him, “Oh, I’m so glad, Lew, that you’ve found what you’ve been working for. You’ve worked so hard and so long.” “It has been pretty strenuous,” he ad- mitted, and she noticed, for the first time, the tired shadows around his eyes and the new lines about his mouth. Harvey’s face was as fresh as a college sophomore’s. “I’ve worked day and night—mostly night,” Lewis admitted, because lI the day. Perhaps it wasn’t quite fair to them to expend so much of my energy at night, but I honestly believe I gave them their money’s worth. However,” he added, with a smile and a shrug, “that may not be the way the boss takes it—and I’d rather hoped for his cooperation in putting it out.” Harvey was staring at him specu- latively. “I say,” whe remarked slowly, “I never thought of that. My uncle is a pest for wanting all he can get—a fellow’s time and money. He’s likely to raise merry Ned, and fire you, of he finds out what: you’ve been doing with his lab and supplies.” “Here’s an idea,” he added, after a moment. “I’ve got a pretty good pull with the old boy. What say I sound him out on your discovery, Lew? Not tell him you did it—anybody in his employ, that is. Then, if he finds it’s the big thing we think it is, the firm’ll take it on. You'll be the fair-haired boy in the shop, even if you did steal office time. But, if it doesn’t pan out, you'll still have your job and oppor- tunity to go after another big thing.” Lewis assented instantly. “I'll be awfully grateful, if you can put it across for me, old man.” When Lewis had left and Christine had gone upstairs, Harvey stood with his back to the dying fire, deep in thought. Christine had-to call hjm twice before he came out of his revery. “Yes, darling, coming,” he answered. Then; very slowly and thoughtfully, he mounted the stairs to his room. Continued tomorrow.)

HE other evening I was lis- tening to the tale of a very fortunate woman—~one whose hair retained a marcel from the time of one shampoo to another (which in this case was about four weeks). During this time the lady took no particular precautions to preserve the manufactured undulations. A rare case, indeed, The reason why permanent waves have been so popular ahd such a boon to women (if the hair is properly cared for) is because straight hair of average texture is difficult to keepincurl. The slightest dampness or the use of a brush on the hair is enough to erase the effect of the irons, : First of all, let me urge you to wear your hair straight if it is at all be- coming to you. Or, if your hair is not tractable, train it by having it dried in place as you wish to wear it—the Same method as that used in water- waving. On the other hand, if you have found that a@ wave frames your face to the best advantage, and you do not wish to have a “permanent,” preserve the life of |. each marcel just as long as you can; to save your hair from frequent punish- ment from hot irons. For, it is a fact that marcelling, no matter how expertly done, will in time change the quality of the hair, and sometimes make it brittle. A finger wave is the more natural method and, I think, produces & more pleasing result. , If one has the marcel ritual per- formed upon the hair, it is desirable to preserve the waves as long as possible. Here are several ways of doing this. When the bath is taken, one should, of course, tie a towel closely around the head at the very edge of the hair- line, push it behind the ears, and fasten it with a pin. Quite a heavy. towel should be used in order that the steam and dampness will not permeate to the hair. When one is using cleansing cream to remove dirt‘from the face, or when one is treating oneself to a massage, the hair should be carefully pushed back from the forehead and temples, and a piece of chamois can be tied around the head. Some specialists use strips of absorbent paper similar to the cleansing tissues used on the face, and these would be excellent for home use in place of the folded cha- mois, Experience has taught us all that to use a brush to any-extent on an arti- ficial wave is marcel-suicide. Any stretching, such as frying. to comb out tangles with a fine-toothed comb, is detrimental. A comb with teeth set wide apart shou.d. first be used, and then the finer teeth of the comb may be drawn through the hair. WhHe combing the hair, it is best to keep the head upright instead of bending over and combing the hair toward the floor. When the hair is thoroughly combed, the waves should be “placed” by smoothing them with the finge and hands. ' Your waves wilh last much longer if you will arrange your hair carefully be- fore retiring. Place the waves as they should appear the next day (if you use hairpins, use tiunt-edgel ones) and place a strong hair net over the hair. And, if possible, sleep flat on your back rather than on either side. Dear Viola Paris: My hair was light, brown until I bleached it with perox- ide about a year ago. Now my hair is all chopped off at the ends, and this is so noticeable that I am often ques- tioned about it. I should like to let my hair grow back to its natural color, but I should not care to go through the embarrassment while it is growing back. Please tell me what can I do for my hair to stop it from being chop- ped off? L. G. E. Answer—My advice, alas! comes too late—it would have been: never bleach the hair. Now that the harm is done, there is nothing to remedy it except to let the hair grow back gradually to its natural shade, The “chopped-off” appearance is the usual result of such bleaching, for peroxide undoubtedly makes the hair very brittle. As an im- ] mediate measure, I would suggest this. Use hot castor oil on the scalp, mas- saging it well in previous to the sham- poo. As much oil as the scaip will conveniently take may be used. Once or twice a week, between semimonthly washings; apply a very little castor. oil to the scalp—not enough to make the hair greasy. The odorless castor oil is to be recommended. Also, use. bril- liantine on the hair every other day. Put a little brilliantine in the ‘palms of the hands’, then rub the broken ends of the hair between the hands, Bleached hair generally looks bleach- ed. I think you would be giving no secrets away if you frankly allowed your hair to resume its natural color. The process would not be pleasant, but it. would be sensible. Perhaps you could have a close-cut bob that would make the problem easier. Or, if you care to do so, you could wear a trans- formation temporarily, (Copyright, 1927.) \ . \\ y . D EAR MISS M’DONALD—Worried and miserable, I come to you seeking your very valuable ad- vice. I am 36 years old and deeply in love for two years with a bachelor of 54. He is very quiet, reserved, kind and affectionate. He pays me many com- liments and admits he likes me, and beli¢ve him sincere. I see him only once a month and he writes me almost as often, saying that he intends to write, but doesn’t. I have had four pro- ls, which I refused, and: I know his man is the only one who has really ever interested me. I feel that life will be empty without him. How am I to find out if he really loves me?I do not wish to ask him directly, because such an attitude may spoil it all. PUZZLED. The man in love does not “intend to write”—he writes! It may seem hard to think of life without him, but bet- ter that than to plan and hope, when uch plans and hopes are far from he man’s mind. Understand, I am not saying that this man never will love you—but merely that at present he does not. Men are never subtle when in love. They find courage to tell their story in act as well as word, and the man who is content to see a girl once @ month, without even letters to bridge the space between is in a most serene state of mind—and that is not the state of mind of the undeclared lover. So try for serenity yourself. You quite evidently possess personality and mag- netism—or you would not have had four proposals. Why not seek diver- sion away from this very serene and safe friend of 54? I suggest this not as a means of intensifying his inter- est—although his interest badly needs a little intensifying—but because few are the men who can never be for- gotten, however, gloriously. we endow them from the richness of our own imaginations. ¥ Loving courage we see them as heroes only waiting a chance to be done in bronze; loving truth we see them as above deception; and we have on our hands before we are through, a very superman Adonis—and Hercules rolled into one, and we weep at the thought that this marvelous combination should never be a part of our personal estate. But he is only Adonis—and—Hercules, because we made him so and he is only |! so while we think him so.

Such is nature's. wisdom! And so I suggest plenty of the society of other men. You see most bachelors of 54 have a fixed habit of self-love. Utter content and. no deep interests outside of themselves are their outstanding characteristics. Of course they have all sorts and varieties of alibis for this single state. But the real fundamental reason for a bachelor latter than of the former—because even the intensely selfish man would marry if endowed with enough virility to make him forget his love of self in the primitive instinct to mate and be- come the father of men. And so these of mild contentment are quite the easiest of all to forget for they with which we are wont to endow them! Even those of them who assure us of their vivid “pasts” are cautious souls and faint of heart.

On the next trick, Declarer should lead the emeete of eeeeeese f Conduct and Common Sense D<«,r ay WHAT IS CORRECT? HE question of what is “correct” in customs of different sorts comes to me again and again. I wonder if I can explain how very lit- tle it has to do with reality more than half the time. You see, the customs which rule people living in one sort of way ‘have nothing to do with those of people living in another. You must always consider your circumstances and surroundings first. Suppose a princess is living in a two or three room apartment and waiting upon herself. Suppose she wishes to ask some friends to dine with her. She would never write and ask how to conduct a formal dinner, how to announce guests, how to show them into the dining room (if she had a dinihg room), how to serve six courses when the hostess did the cook- ing. She would know tkat no formal- ity was possible under the circum- stances. The dinner would have to be as simple and as easily served as pos- sible and the whole affair would have to be considered in the light of a pic- nic meal. “Correctness” of ceremonious serving wouldn’t come in here at all. The princess would prepare everything ahead that could be prepared ahead, would have enough sense to arrange her service s0 as to make the least ANNE SINGLETON : confusion possible, and would let it go at that. She’d be correct according to her way of life. In the same way, when girls write to me that they are going to have a very simple wedding, but want it “‘cor- rect” in every particular, and then begin to describe the number of brides- maids, maids of honor, flower girls, pages, ring-bearers and ushers they want, and add that the bridegroom will wear business clothes or a dinner coat and light gray trousers, what can I say? No wedding is simple with all those attendants. Only in the largest kind of picture-wedding could such a procession be seen, and even in that kind, as far as the social world is con~- cerned, ring-bearers would be un- known, As for the bridegroom, if the wedding were really simple—that is, with a bride in a traveling dress or afternoon dress, and no (or, at the most, two) bridesmaids, he might wear a business suit quite properly; not otherwise. Under no circumstances should he wear the other combination. To be “correctly” simple the bride had only consider her parents and her pocketbook, the bridegroom and his relations, the church service and the general convenience of guests. Nothing else mattered.

HELPING THE BABY WITH A COLD E want to again call attention W of the readers of this column to the importance of the common cold when it lays its hands on the very young. baby. However skillful as a mouth breather he may come to be in later life, while an infant he breathes through his nose and knows no other technique. The kigh art of snoring, of which some men are so proud, is an acquired characteristic or quality. A baby knows nothing about it because he breathes. through his nose and in no other way. Therefore, when a baby gets a‘nose cold he is most unhappy. The only air route he knows anything about will not let air pass. In addition to the discomfort, there is the harm and danger. in other. ways. Pneumonia and bronchitis are highly fatal to babies. Now that the diar- rheas are becoming of -small impor- tance, bronchitis and pneumonia are taking first place as causes of disaster for babies, and, finally, there are the dangers to the ears, tonsils and ade- nolds. McAuliffe thinks that one reason babies take cold is because they are bathed in a room which is too cold. accustomed to warm surroundings. After the head kas been bathed and partially dried there are some minutes warm enough. Dr. McAuliffe. says: “Most babies is in the other n. should lie on his stomach, especially when he kas a bad cold. i ’ A baby with a bed. cou ‘1s very un comfortable because he does no o ¢ is breath.

POTENTIAL OPPONENTS OF RELIEF Work Believes Help Might Be Extended, but Mellon — Feels Otherwise. By NORMAN W. BAXTER. The problems of farm relief trans- ferred to the oil flelds were added yes- terday to the worries of the Coolidge administration. Leading producers of the country, brought.sharp against the age-old law of supply and demand by overproduction in the midcontinent fields, have appealed to the govern- ment for some form of assistance. The statutes of the nation and all of the arguments that were used by Persident Coolidge in vetoing the Mc- Nary-Haugen bill apply, many officials believe, with equal force in the pres- ent situation, and added to these em- barrassments is the fact that every user of gasoline—both rural and ur- ban—is a age opponent of gov- ernmental favors extended to the oil industry. Developments of the day, following a meeting Wednesday of the oil inter- ests of the country in New York, in- cluded a difference of opinion between two members of the President’s cabi- net as to what might be done.

Farish, former president of the American Petroleum institute, that some way might be found for an agree- ment limiting production without bringing down upon the _ producers penalties under the antitrust law.

Tae Ue 4 se erty, WILL ROGERS. . ae government can do and that a cure, if one is to be found, must come through regulation by the States. What has taken place in the oil fields during the last five or six months is not a néw condition, for there have been cycles of overproduction before, but the present flow of petroleum from the ground is greater in volume than ever before, due principally to the de- velopment of new fields in Oklahoma and Texas. The present price of crude oil is such that the navy, which became a large holder of oil through the court decisions in the Doheny case, has been unable to exchange its crude output for refined oil on a profitable basis and has as yet been unable to obtain any benefit from the Elk Hills deposits. The hardest blow has fallen upon the independent producers. The big- ger producers and refiners, such as Standard Oil, have storage facilities of such immensity that they are, able to buy on the depressed market and hold the oil until production decreases. The smaller elements in the industry can, however, do nothing but throw their oil on a falling market, and even the big fellows are worried at the rate at which oil is now coming out of the ground. Would Limit Production. The proposal of the oil men, which does not jibe with the antitrust laws, is for voluntary agreements limiting production until the stocks of oil have reached: more normal levels. The same proposal was made at the last period of overproduction and that time no less an authority than Charles E Hughes, appearing for the Petroleum institute, argued that it would be impossible to bring about any agree- ment which would be legal. An agreement to limit production would serve, too, to fix the price so that the solution which the oil men now seem to favor would, if carried out, bring about almost the identical! situation which was subject to so much criticism when the McNary-Haugen bill was up in Congress. Despite the gravity with which the oil industry regards the present situa- tion, some of its members have their doubts about: any limiting agreement, should such a course be found pos- sible, for fear that it would lead to the renewal of a demand for govern- mental regulation of the oil industry as a whole. There is already some sentiment in Congress, among those who would na- tionalize the waterpower of the coun- try, for Federal control of oil. Both the cil men and members of the admin- istration think that afriendly hand to the oil industry might lead to a coali- tion between the farm bloc and the governmental regulation advocates which would remove the’ production énd refining of oil from private hands There is another political phase of the question to be considered by the President and his advisors. Aid to the oil industry, even if designed to’ pre- vent economic disruption, would be exceedingly hard to explain to the con- sumer of oil, including every driver of an automobile, The price of gasoline, although it has decreased somewhat in the East in recent months, has not kept pace with the drop in crude oil prices, due to the fact that the gasoline which has been on the market until very recently was made from oil bought before crude prices had collapsed. The ultimate consumer would, there- fore, have some difficulty possibly in understanding the solicitude of the administration toward an industry that had shown the buyer no favors. The feeling of Treasury officials as regards the problem is that the present overproduction is a cycle through which the oil industry will have to pass with such aid as it can get from the States. The view expressed by the financial of- ficials yesterday was that Overproduc- tion was due almost entirely to the de- Sire of rival operators to get from the pools their share of the oil contained in them, and that unless the industry itself could find some legal method by which new pools could be left dormant until the old ones had been worked out, situations such as the present one are almost certgih to occur at irregular intervals. Neither government officials’ nor members of the oil industry are able to calculate the length of the period of overproduction, since it is dependent entirely upon the flow in the pools which has brought about the present crisis.

HELPING HAITI, Senator Oddie, of Nevada, has returned from a visit to Haiti, during which he made a thor- ough inspection of conditions under the Ameri- can occupation. He has issued a statement which emphatically controverts the sensational allegations made by Haitian politicians and often repeated by Senator King, of Utah. The condition of Haiti prior to American occupation was discouraging from every aspect. The people were diseased, half starved, and trampled upon by bandits and revolutionary marauders. There were no roads, and farmers had no inducement to plant crops, which were seized as soon as matured. Sanitation was unknown, and the ordinary conveniences of civilization were lacking. Life and property were under constant menace. The violation of the French legation brought about a climax which threatened to end in: occupation of the country by a European power. The United States was then compelled to step in, for the sake of maintaining the Monroe doctrine as well as to befriend Haiti. Senator Oddie states that since American occupation took place in 1915 the country has been regenerated. Finances have been reor- ganized, resources developed, roads built, hos- pitals and schools established, agriculture ‘stimulated, live stock improved, disease diminished, and the public health and order largely restored. The native . constabulary, with only a few American officers, maintains peace and order. Natives are trained and placed in official positions as rapidly as pos- sible. They are becoming engineers, phy- sicians, surgeons, nurses, carpenters, builders, and experts in other activities. Mr. Oddie says: Were we to withdraw our forces now, revolution, bloodshed, oppression and a return to the former conditions of bar- barism and misery would quickly follow, and all the work we have accomplished in twelve years would be undone. We can not and we will not allow such a calamity to come. Our treaty and humanitarian obligations will not permit us to neglect our duty in this manner. The charge of imperialism, brought against the United States in its relations with Haiti, is Circulated by Haitian politicians and agitators who are prevented from exploiting the country. The Americans who take up these charges and repeat them are throwing mud at their own flag. No more unselfish work was ever don® by a nation than that which the United States is doing in behalf of the Haitian people. The Haitians themselves are the best witnesses to the benefits that they are receiving. They have joined enthusiastically in the work of rehabilitation, secure for the first time in their lives in the possession of homes, and if assisted a while longer will have passed the stage where they would be in danger of a lapse into old conditions. They are’learning the art of self- government, as well as the art of living. In due time the United States will withdraw from Haiti and restore to the people their full sovereignty. An arrangement similar to the Platt amendment will doubtless be made, authorizing. the United States to intervene in case of revolution or other mortal danger. With that safeguard the people of Haiti will, in a comparatively short time, be capable of governing themselves and developing their country. TRAFFIC ON BOULEVARDS. Residents in upper Sixteenth street have asked again that a police ban be placed against trucks and. solid-tired vehicles using that thoroughfare, basing their arguments on the residential character of the street, the noise of the trucks and the vibrations caused by their operation which are said to shake buildings and cause plaster to fall from the ceilings of residences. Those opposed to the measure object to forcing the traffic to,other streets and increasing the congestion therein, and advance the counter-argument that vehicles large and heavy enough to shake buildings on Sixteenth ~ street ought not to be tolerated on any street. Heavily loaded trucks driven at high speeds undoubtedly cause street vibrations that are transmitted to residences. Damage to the structures may result, damage to the road surface itself is inevitable. At lower speeds, however, vibration is not produced. and, therefore, regulations should be issued con- trolling both the weight and speed of heavy vehicles throughout the city. : oe _. Upper Sixteenth street’should be freed from es heavy, slow-moving traffic. As far north as . Florida avenue this important thoroughfare is “reserved for the exclusive use of penumatically "tired vehicles, the exclusion of. others being __ based on the fact that the street is a boulevard to. accommodate high-speed traffic. Above Florida avenue the same condition obtains; the _ street is light controlled, and further out the - 80-mile speed limit is permitted. Heavy - yehicles hamper the free flow of high-speed _ traffic and, if they are to be barred at all, it ' . phould be for this reason. _ Solid-tired trucks should be barred from all ' . high-speed boulevards whenever. it is possible. / When the boulevard is not paralleled by other -@ regulation should be drawn up to .

In view of this fact, it is sad- dening to read that the number of children who . wal i aed , wn. id 698 in 1926, as compared with 68,367 in 1925. In twenty departments the infant death rate was lower than in the previous year, in two it was stationary, but in 68 it rose. Still, mod- ern sanitation and hygiene are doing something to reduce infant mortality, for whereas the rate was 112 per 1,000 in ‘1913, it was down to 85 per 1,000 in 1924 and to 89 per 1,000 in 1925, | : The total population of France is given as 40,745,000 in 1926. This is less than that was 41,470,000, but it is greater than in 1920, when the figure was 39,300,000. As a matter of fact, there has been a slight but steady rise each-year since the war ceased to affect the numbers. | The marriage figures have, however, gone down considerably since 1920, although they show an increase over 1913. In 1913 there were 312,036 marriages, or a rate of 15.1 per 1,000 inhabitants; in 1920 there were 623,859, or 31.8 per 1,000, the large increase being obviously due to postponement caused by the war; but in 1926 the number of mafriages was 346,126, or 17 per 1,000, the lowest figure and the lowest average shown since the war. _There are some discouraging facts about these figures, but, by and large, they prove that France is working out her own salvation. STANDARDS OF MEASURE, Resolutions passed by the second Pan-Am- erican standardization conference calling for a campaign to further the adoption of the metric system throughout this country and Latin America are both timely and wise. It is generally admitted that the metric system is superior to any other method of measuring weights, volumes and lengths. Other systems have survived only because of tradition and be- cause of the natural tendency to refuse to cast aside anything so firmly and fundamentally entrenched. The basic unit of the metric system is the meter, the unit of length, whith is equivalent to the distance between the defining lines of the international prototype meter at the in- ternational bureau of weights and measures when this standard is at the temperature of melting ice, or zero centigrade. From this the unit of capacity, the liter and of weight, the gram, are derived. All other units are the decimal subdivisions or multiples of these and all are simply related. For to all practical purposes 1 cubic decimeter equals 1 liter and 1 liter of water weighs 1 kilogram. Contrast this system with the measures in use in the United States, where to ascertain weight are used troy pounds, avoirdupois metric tons, all absolutely unrelated. For measuring space the American uses the inch, link, rod, perch, chain, furlong, the hand, the point, the span and several varying types of miles. World commerce has become so important that it would be of great value to have a stand- ard system of weights and measures in gen- eral use. Quite aside from this, however, is the benefit to be derived at home. Educating the public up to the point of adoption of a new system will be a long process, but it is to be hoped that those interested in the matter will not lose heart before their task has been com- pleted. GOING OUT OF BUSINESS. Advocates of government ownership of public utilities and commercial enterprises generally have something to think over in the news from Manila, where Governor Gen- eral Wood has announced his intention to sell to the highest bidders all the holdings of the government in the commercial enterprises of the islands, The nominal value of these hold- ings approaches $50,000,000, but if one-tenth of that sum is realized from the sale the United States will-be fortunate. Already Gen. Wood has handed over to the Filipinos the entire control of the Manila railroad, in which the government owns a majority of stock. This was accomplished by giving the Aatives a majority of the board of directors and by placing the management in native hands. Because of bad crop conditions and heavy losses in the conduct of the business jin two Sugar centrals located respectively in Occi- dental and Oriental Negros provinces, loans made by native banks are at present unre- coverable. Gen. Wood has an offer for these centrals from New York interests, and will probably dispose. of the government’s hold- ings to the New Yorkers. Other enterprises in which the government is interested and which will be sold, or per- haps given away by the general, are the Cebu Portland Cement Co., capitalized at 5,000,000 pesos, which holds many thousands of acres of agricultural and timber lands in the province of Neuva Ecija, and the National Coal Co., which had a capital of 8,000,000 pesos. ; This action ofthe. governor general is based on a recent ruling of the insular supreme court, which held that he has full power over government-controlled institutions. Gen, Wood is quoted as expressing the belief that the economic atmosphere of the islands will be materially cleared .by the new policy and that there will be a revival of business, which in turn will offset the millions of losses sus- tained through governmental operation and ownership of the railroads and manufacturing enterprises. ; The abandonment of government control of business in the Philippines brings to an end another attempt on the part of Federal au- thority to’ engage in commerce, which is, and should be by right, the function of private firms, individuals and corporations. Paris is making special preparations for receiving and entertaining the American Legion convention this summer. Among other conveniences, the police authorities are pro- of the legionnaires.

By-Product of Culture. Boston Globe: The student worker ih the summer time has become one of the features of American vacation life. Indeed, it seems quite impossibge to do without such help. Students run mo- torboats at lake resorts, tend hot-dog counters, fetch and carry in hkotels, wait on tables, cut lawns and do almost anything and everything that other people are willing to pay for. It is true that some of the students play in orchestras, but that is because a lot of other people pay them for playing. Who Is Their Friend? Hokah Chief: The farmers should stop a while and think. They should quietly ask themselves who _ their friends are. Who is their natural and logical well-wisher? Is it the business man who lives with them and deals with them every day, or is it the poli- ticlan who wants their votes? Is it the man who knows their problems and who realizes the necessity for their welfare, or is it the blatant orator with a scheme for relief from their ills? Farmers have troubles which we all dé- plore. So have other people. But no relief will come in legislation which drags people deeper into the hole than they are now. Commendable Diversion. Rochester Democrat and Chronicle: In a number of cities the building ahd installation of bird houses. by school children has been undertaken on a large.scale in recent years Denver, Pittsburgh, Rochester, all have done their bit to atone for the destruction of forest homes of the native birds and to make the feathered visitors feel at home in cities. Building of bird houses diversion for both children and adults, but serves the even more commendable _ purpose of teaching thousands of town- bred children, and their parents, the of encouraging the birds to become neighbors and friends.

It will be answered that religion, Proof of Tolerance ' By ROBERT QUILLEN MAN writes a book to indict and shame preachers. Before a word of comment has been written or spoken, you know that clergymen will say the book is untrue and blasphemous. You know that agnostics and cynics will read it gleefully and praise the author. These agnostics and cynics, now commonly grouped as “‘young intei- lectuals,” are without exception advocates of tolerance. Almost without exception they: deride, denounce and villify certain preachers and re- formers, and the thing that arouses their fury is the belief that these preachers and reformers are intolerant. To the casual reader their point seems well taken; but by every bit- ter word they utter, they strengthen the indictment against themselves. The “young intellectuals” love liberty, as every proper man must; anc they affirm the truth that the measure of a man’s tolerance is the meas- Some of them—the more ardent lovers of liberty—assert that to it, and that freedom is not genuine unless it gives every man the right to be wrong.

An Interesting Case. New York Evening Post: The supreme court of Arizona has just handed down a decision which will interest all moral- ists, whether they are wet ‘or dry. A resident of Arizona, while in Mexico, bought a quantity of intoxicating bev- erages and returned Lome without hav- ‘Ing paid for his liquor. The vendor sought to enforce his contract in the Arizona courts, and when the vendee obtained judgment the Mexican ap- pealed.. The Arizona man contended that the courts of that State could not compel him to pay for intoxicating liquors obtained elsewhere, since that ‘would be in contravention of the pub- 4 lic policy of the United States and of Arizona as expressed by the eighteenth | amendment, the Volstead Jaw and the laws of Arizona. The justices of the supreme court, however, held that “there is no public policy that will | justify the refusal of a court to extend comity under such a state of facts unless the transaction would present | to our people a pernicious and detest- | able ple—shocking to the prevail- ing moral sense.” As no such condi- tion exists in this case, the court de-| rad ‘ and placid sphinx of Northampton, |: Vt., continues | bee . +, ¥ Pe ag 1 SER are ihe Py ea! | : tract to pay for them is as enforceable in our courts as if ke were to purchase ordinary wearing apparel. This may be a shock to reckless travelers, but it sounds very much like common sense. ON TIPPING HATS. Boston femunigt leaders are in dis- agreement with British feminist lead- ers—and that sort of thing must often recur, we sadly suppose—over a point of chivalry in man, comments the Kan- sas City Star. With sorrow we note that the point is stated in most regret- table terms in a London dispatch and what its more depressing, goes uncor- rected in Boston. The London news writer records that feminism over there has deplored and rejected as a sign of inequality the man custom of “tipping” the hat to women. If the Boston feminists had de- nounced this gaucherie and retorted that man does not “tip” his hat to women but raises it, the controversy might have occupied a higher plane, we think. Unfortunately this advan- tage was overlooked in Boston- and feminism there is content to defend its claim to this tribute from man ana to assert that it surrenders nothing ot principle in accepting it; it is so will- ing to accept it that It doesn’t care whether the hat is tipped or raised. On the main question our feeling i with Boston. Man removes his hat in the presence of death and the ladies because they are the only two mysteries that. ever have baffled him. If he should ever solve them the creature couldn’t be lived with; his arrogance would be insupportable. This is the vice of equality; it leaves man nothing to pay: homage to, LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. Yes, It’s a Bore. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Why does WRC repeat right after a speaker, verbatim, that speaker’s announcement, which WRC announcer had himself pre- viously announced? Three announcements every time! It’s a deuced bore. He talks too’ much, We.all know to whom and of what we have listened. P. ie “A Genuine War Memorial.” To the Editor of the Post—Sir: To a good many of those who have an im- mediate personal interest in a genuine war memorial for the District. of Co- lumbia, Mrs.. McCoy’s letter, appearing in your paper this morning, is of the greatest possible interest and value. It is intolerable to be accused of for-’ getfulness and ingratitude because we refused to “sign on the dotted line.” CONSTANCE WILLIAMS. May 12. Ben Butler and Grant. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: The passing to the government of the old Ben Butler building, on Capitol Hill, has called forth a number of stories of the original owner. One of the best I have not seen in print. When Grant was President one of the foreign gov- ernments sent him a very rare bush, noted for the beauty of its folisge and flowers. Grant was very proud of it and had it replanted in a choice section of the White House grounds. He paid almost daily visits to it to watch its growth, and distinguished visitors were sure to be taken on an inspecting tour. One day Gen. Butler and Senator Sumner had business with the Presi- dent. On arriving at the White House they found him engaged. Leaving word as to where they were going they walk- ed out on the grounds, continuing their conversation. They happened to stop close to Grant’s bush. Butler hap- pened to have his knife in his hand, and during the earnest conversation thoughlessly cut the bush in several places. After a time Grant’ came to them. He quickly noticed hov. his bush had been marred, and in angry tone declared he would like to know the one who had thus hacked it. Butler looked him in the eye, and said: “Mr. Presi- dent, I can’t tell a lie. It was Sumner.” . wW.HS. BOOTLEGGERS’ TAX. There is a charming paradox in the case of the South Carolina bootlegger who objected to the attempt of the collector of internal revenue in his dis- trict to make him pay a tax on his il- legal income, says the Chicago News. Several courts have considered the ise sues in the case and now it has reache ed the United States Supreme Court. The Federal revenue act makes no distinction between incomes from legi- timate business and those from unlaw- ful or criminal operations. Still, it has been held that a bootlegger may refuse to file an income tax schedule on the ground that he would incriminate hime | self by ‘ey t°. 60 *. Of return rc- quired. Congress might overcome that difficulty by explicitly granting boot- . leggers and other offenders immunity from prosecution on account of infor- mation revealed in income tax sched- ules, but it has not done so. Manifestly. as the government con- tends, if bootleggers and other lawe- breakers need not file income tax sched- ules they constitute a favored class of persons and escape burdens borne by the law-abiding. Such a result does not strike the average citizen as har- monizing with reason or justice, yet courts have ruled that way under the constitutional provision against self- incrimination. ae It will be interesting to mark the Supreme Court's solution of the legal puzzle..

New York, May 12.—The general course of the stock exchange prices, was downward today, active shares losing points, yement only partially off- get by the sharp bidding up of @ isolated shares. Both new lows new highs for the year were established. Net gains extended to 9 points, but they were not numerous. On the whole the day’s movement hardly could be considered as enything more than the irregular oscillation which has now prevailed for abou ays and which has made the market's real trend dif- ficult to determine. Call money rates opened and ruled at 4% per cent throughout the day. The failure of the oil company éxecu- tives in conference here to make greater progress in arriving at 4 basis for co- operation, proved & rather depressing influence, after an early display of strength among the petroleum shares.

Directors Approve Expansion ‘Plans—I. J. Roberts New Institute President. MARKET PRICES ARE FIRM By F. W. PATTERSON. The already attractive banking rooms of the Security Savings & Commercial Bank at Ninth and G streets northwest are to be further improved by a large addition to the present building, under expansion plans approved by the board of directors yesterday, according to an- nouncement of Julius I. Peyser, presi- dent. The plans for the work which will be done by Hoggson Brothers, bank architects and builders, contemplate taking in the three stores east of the present banking rooms on G street, giving the bank building a 100-foot frontage on G street and a 63-foot frontage on Ninth street, which will more than double the lobby space as well as provide room for increasing the number of tellers’ cages and permit the installation of a safe deposit vault, three times larger than the present one. Further improving the banking facilities of the institution will be a large room for the sole use of women patrons, and consultation rooms for officers and patrons, and a conference room connected with the safe deposit department will be added. The growth of the Security Savings é& Commercial Bank since the opening of its doors on April 7, 1913, has been steady and constant, and the present expansion project, which the building committee has undertaken, is the fourth in its little more than twelve years of existence. Beginning with a capital of $100,000 the bank opened for business on April 7, 1913. and ended the day with de- posits totaling $32,226.32. Twice since that date the directors have found it necessary to increase the capital stock to enable them to care for the in- creasing demands made upon them by the healthy growth of business, the first increase being made in November, 1919, when the capital was raised to $200,000, while a capital increase to $300,000 was accomplished in April of last year. The bank had deposits to- taling $5,348,428.66 at the close of busi- ness yesterday, a gain of $345,320.74 over the last call. of the comptroller of the currency. Surplus and undi- vided profits were $357,277.85 and total resources amounted to $6,046,417.58. Officers of the bank are Julius I. Peyser, president; . Fred. McKee and Francis G. Addison, jr., vice presidents; Samuel R. Baulsir, cashier; T. Hunton Leith, Latrobe Owen, J. Louis Shipley and Charles K. West, assistant cashiers. The senior officers, with the following, compose the board of directors: Ed- ward C. Baltz, Diller F. Groff, John B. Harrell, J. Thilman Hendrick, George H. Judd, Harold H. Levi, Francis A. Blundon, Sol Herzog, William A. Hill, Ralph McKee, Laurence Mills, Morris Simon, William W. Spalding, Sidney W. Straus and William C. Sullivan. Roberts Elected President. I. J. Roberts, secretary to the presi- dent of the Riggs National Bank, was yesterday elected president of the Washington chapter, American Insti- tute of Banking for the fiscal year be- ginning June 1 and ending June 1, 1928, and with the other officers will be installed at a special meeting on June 1 at the Willard hotel. Mr. Roberts is a chapter graduate, was a vice president this year and as chairman of the educational committee has been particularly active in the work of the administration which retires next month. Other officers elected for the ensuing year were James A. Soper, Lincoln Na- tional Bank, first vice president; A. E. Henze, W. B. Hibbs & Co., second vice president; Miss Leis A. White, Federal- American National Bank; secretary, chosen for a second’ term; H. Dar- neille, National Metropolitan Bank. treasurer; Miss Catherine Krieg, Riggs National Bank, assistant secretary, and Frank M. Perley, American Security & Trust Co., chief consul. Those elected to the board of govern- ors were Aubrey O. Dooley, Commercial] National Bank; Elmer O’Hara, Seventh Street Savings Bank; A. W. Sherman, American Security & Trust Co.; Gar- rett M. Van Hoesen, Second National Bank; Robert G. Whitton, First Nation- al Bank, Alexandria, Va. Miss Mildred C. Woodcock, of the American Security & Trust Co., who was one of the nomi- nees for the board, received a sufficient number of votes to elect her, but under the rule that a bank may have no more than one representative on the board she was deemed as not elected. Light Trading on Exchange. Despite the fact that light trading continued in yesterday’s session of the Washington Stock Exchange, there was no appreciable change in price tone, most of the stocks traded in remaining firm while any declines developing were but fractional. Capital Traction was unchanged at 105, and two small lots changed hands at this level. Potomac Electric Power preferred sold in a single lot at 108%, while .Washington Railway & Electric preferred moved at 92%. Bid price was strong in the bank stock list, but American Security & Trust shares were the only security coming out and a total of 30 shares in two lots sold at 387% for the first 10 shares and 387'4% for a block of 20 shares. National Mortgage & Invest- ment preferred was firm and sold to the extent of 150 shares at 8. Quiet reigned once again on the bond side of the market. The only transac- tions recorded were in Potomac Electric Power general 6s, which sold at 10814, and Washington Railway & Electric general 6s, which moved at 103%. Drainage Bonds Bought. Dillon, Read & Co. and Eldredge & Co. have bought $10,000,000 of Ever- glades drainage bonds of Florida, ac- cording to announcement yesterday by Gov. John W. Martin o: Florida, who is chairman of the drainage board. The bonds were purchased subject to a deci- sion of the supreme court of Florida holding the recent act passed by the legislature valid and constitutional. “The drainage of this great area means much to the State of Florida, and its success is now guaranteed,” said Gov. Marti n. 8. Davies Warfield, president of the Seaboard Air Line railway, who has rendered splendid assistance in inter- - esting the bankers in the project, in commen on the action leading to the sale of the $10,000,000 bonds, said: “The sale at this time will be far reach- ing in result, not alone to the people of Florida, but to those who have made investments in the State,” and point- ing to the extensions of lines of the Seaboard Air Line across Florida from coast to coast as an evidence of the confidence the railway has in the fu- ture of Florida, he concluded: “This new evidence of confidence should help to stamp out loose talk which takes place sporadically respecting conditions in Florida, part of our great Southern empire, which stands unrivaled.” COTTONSEED OIL MARKET. ode NSEED.

P.).—Com-» mon stockholders of the General Motors Corporation were awarded an extra cash dividend of $2 a share, amoun to $17,400,000. at the quarterly meeting of directors today, in addition to. the regular cash dividend of $2 a share. The regular preferred dividends also were declared on three senior stock is- sues, 6 and 7 per cent preferred and 6 per cent debentures, The regular com- mon dividend is payable June 13 and the extra on July 5, both to stock- holders of record May 21. President Alfred P. Sloan, jr., an- nounced that the corporation’s cash position continues strong, current cash and marketable securities aggregating approximately 150,000,000.

EW YORK, May 12.—Granting N that Ban B. Johnson is president of the American league again or still, as the mysterious case may be, his official rebuke to the priestly Mr. Connie Mack for permitting Ty Cobb to speak rudely to an umpire is some- thing new in the way of State docu- ments in the American league. It also recalls the raucous incompatibility that sprang up between Cobb and Frank Wilson, the National league um- pire, at St. Petersburg. a few weeks ago and Wilson cutting reproach to Mr. Mack at that time. “If you were a gentleman or even a manager, Of which you are neither,” Wilson said to Mr. Mack, “you would not let that hoodlum act that way.” Cobb had just compared Wilson to a small, wild animal, habitat North America, famous, if not positively no- torious, for its fragrance, giving the party of the second part all the better of the comparison. The unfortunate Wilson had been re- leased from the American league for one reason or another, Cobb and Tris Speaker insisting that he was a bush league umpire, if any, and Wilson in- sisting that the authority of an um- pire in the American league must al- ways be subordinate to the interests of the box office. No umpire, he said, could turn in a bad report on Cobb, Speaker or any other of the more petulant stars and expect to escape certain consequences. Of course, when an umpire reports a ballplayer for bad manners the league president suspends the player for three days in outward compliance with a supposed principle that the umpire can do no wrong. But Wilson said, on meeting the player again, the umpire would receive personal abuse and there would be nothing for him to do but take it or resign, because if he, kept on reporting @ vaulable athlete, the athlete would (CONTINUED ON PAGE 15, COLUMN 5.)

MEN 9 To Draw 14 Starters Six “Probables” Also May Run Tomorrow in Classic. Crowds Entering City by All Means of Conveyance. OUISVILLE, Ky., May 12 (By A. P.). Fourteen certain starters and half a dozen ‘“‘probables” appear on the list tonight, twelve hours before the owners send the names of their hope- fuls through the entry box for the fifty-third Kentucky Derby Saturday. Three owners expect to start two horses each in the Derby, while the others will hold singletons in the bid- ding for the $50,000 added purse and the glory. of winning a Kentucky Derby. Eight Easterner8 and six Westerners are counted on now to make their bids, and two or three others from each sec- tion probably will be entered. E. R. Bradley, master of Idlehour Farm stable, is expected to name Boo, Bewithus and Buddy Bauer, but one of the latter two probably will be scratched. H. P. Whitney and J. E.

Fair Star, Foxcatcher Farm’s crack filly, will be reserved for the Kentucky Oaks, as her owner, William Dupont, jr., will not be here Saturday. The derby crowd is coming. Special trains, chartered boats, private and spe- cial cars, automobiles, airplanes and the vanishing “horse and buggy” are it inging in their share. Unable to make it any other way, some are com- ing an an ankle excursion. And for those unable to get here, or to get in the Downs after they arrive, the radio will be available. Two Chicago stations, WEBH and WGN, will broadcast direct from the track, while many other sta- tions will put the result on the air as soon as the race is over. A former professional jockey, who now is the Republican leader in the | United States Senate, and a 96-year-old turf enthusiast are among the derby- bound bands. . Senator Charles Curtis, of Kansas, who said that he was a jockey for eight years before he gave up the turf to study law, is to witness his first derby. Mrs. Susan Eherley is looking forward to see her fifty-third. Mrs. Sherley hasn’t missed a single derby, and she said she would not while she was able to get to the track. She came to Louis- ville more than three score and ten years ago. Cubs Solve Jack Scott And Defeat Phils, 4 to 1 Philadelphia, May 12 (By A. P.).

Chicago, May 12.—Gov. William J. Fields, of Kentucky, who is here as the guest of honor at the annual dinner of the Kentucky Society of Chicago is “bored to extinction” everywhere hé goes with questions about racing. Kentucky has other things besides the derby to boast about, Gov. Fields said. “I am a farmer, a Kentuckian and, therefore a lover of horses,” said Gov. Fields, “but 1 will be too busy with State business Saturday to attend the derby. There is a small crowd in our State which con- trols the horse race betting for a big profit. They try to run every- thing else in the State as a subordi- nate issue. I have not permitted, thts crowd to do this.” EAST NAMES GRIDIRON CZAR Langford Will Decide Officials for Feature College Games. N® YORK, May 12 (By A. P.).— A football “dictator,” empowered to name officials for the han- dling of prominent games on the Har- vard, Yale and Dartmouth schedules for 1927 and 1928, appeared today as a brand-new “wrinkle” in the inter- collegiate grid pastime. The new “ruler” is William S. Lang- ford, of New York, secretary of the rules committee and one of the most prominent football officials in the country. Extension of the move to other col- leges is expected Saturday night, when representatives of* Harvard, Yale, Dart- mouth, Princeton, Brown, Cornell, Army, Navy, Pennsylvania and Colum- bia will meet at the Yale club here to discuss the problem of obtaining com- petent handlers of the whistles. Choosing of a single power to name officials and prevent the possibility of referees and umpires tempering their work to please coaches who give them regular as- signments for big games, was spon- sored by Tad Jones, head coach at Yale. The custom in the past has been for rival coaches to _ select their own officials. Under ‘the new plan, Langford will have complete’supervision over officials in the games of Harvard, Yale and Dartmouth, making his position simi- lar, in many respects, to that of Maj. John L. Griffith, commissioner of the Western “Big Ten” conference. Authori- ties at the three institutions hope in this way to provide a background for the sport entirely free from the taint of favoritism. Vance’s Arm and Bat Beats Cincinnati, 6-3 Brooklyn, N. Y., May 12 (By A. P.).— Dazzy Vance was an all-round star here today as the Brooklyn Robbins made it two straight over Cincinnati by 6 to 3. Vance fanned five batters, limited the Reds to four hits and led the Brooklyn attack with three singles and a double in four trips to the plate. The last Brooklyn run came in the eighth inning and was a clean steal of home by Carey. Cincinnati. ABHO A|Brooklyn, AB H MS .

HE survivors, in the championship flight of the Chevy Chase Goif club .tournament, as the results of the first and second rounds of match play yesterday, are Harry G. Pitt (Man- or), paired against George J. Voigt (Bannockburn) in the upper bracket and Miller B. Stevinson (Columbia) and John. C. Shorey (Argyle), who are opponents in the lower half. Pitt and Voigt met last spring in the semifinals of the tournament of the Congressional Country club, when Pitt won. Stevin- son defeated Shorey last week in the Washington club tournament. Many of the best-known golfers in the District -were eliminated yesterday, including A. L. Houghton (Manor), runner-up at the Town and Country club and winner of the Washington club event; Guy M. Standifer (Colum- bia) and Walter R. Tuckerman (Chevy Chase), both former District amateur champions; Frank K. Roesch, the Wash- ington club -champion; Page Hufty, winner last year of.the North and South championship at Pinehurst, and Maj. E. L. Naiden, the army golf cham- pion. Some of these players still are struggling through the _ consolation flight. Voigt had ‘no difficulty in reach- ing the semifinals, defeating Stan- difer, G and 5, and Hufty, 4 and 3, while Pitt defeated Roesch in the morning round and won on the eighteenth green from ' William J. Cox, when he ran down a long, Semistymied putt for a birdie 3. Shorey came through with victories over Forrest Thompson (Argyle) and R. M. Gray (Toronto); but Stevinson. after disposing of A. McCook Dunlop (Chevy Chase) in the forenoon, had a nip-and-tuck battle with Tuckerman in the afternoon, the match being car- riel to the home green. Stevinson was 1 up at the turn, but the match was squared on the four- teenth green. The players were still all even at the eighteenth tee, although Tuckerman missed a short putt: on the sixteenth green which would have given him a win, but the final hole: was won by Stevinson in a par 4 after Tuck- erman had missed both his drive and, his second shot. ° The feature of the day’s play was the one-sided character of a vast majority of the victories. Of the 48 matches played. only four were decided on the home green and only four went to the nineteenth hole. Of the latter the most interesting, perhaps. was the struggle between George P. James and E. L. Bono, «both members of the Columbia club. Although James was 3 up with only four holes to play, he began to hit trees, explore ditches and find traps, so that the match was soon squared, ending on the extra hole when James won by virtue of a single putt. It was one putt on the nineteenth green which gave J. P. Gilmore a vic- (CONTINUED ON PAGE. 15, COLUMN 1.) Giants Defeat Cards On Muffed Fly, 3-2 New York, May 12 (By A. P.).—The New York Giants bolstered their hold on the National league leadership to- day by defeating the St. Louis Cardi- nals by 3 to 2 in eleven innings. The contest ended abruptly when Terry opened the final session with a single and the next two flied out. Devormer hit a short fly which Douthit muffed after a hard run and Terry scored from first base. Grimes and Henry pitched: great ball against the veteran Alexander who got himself out of a bad hole in | the ninth by retiring his opponents with the. bases filled and one out when Pinch-hitter Reese hit into a double play. Douthit hit a home run with none on base in the fifth. Lester Bell, St. Louis third baseman, struck out five times, four of them being by Grimes. St. Louis. AB H O A!New York.

Hiring a set of clubs, she teed her ball atop a cupful of sand and made a wild swing, aiming for the first green. The ball sliced into a tree, bounced off a branch and drop- ped into the cup on No. 9 green about 100 yards away and to the right. “What do I get for that hole-in- one?” she inquired of the starter. “Absolutely nothing,” was his in- hve reply,” and furthermore you'll have to buy another ticket. You have sets ere the round.” BROWNS LOSE TO YANKS, 4TO3 Jones Fans 8, but Fails in Pinches; ; Rath Makes 2 Hits. T LOUIS, May 12 (By A.

HOWARD GLEE CLUB DELIGHTS AUDIENCE University Musicians Give an Excellent Program at Rankin Chapel.- The Howard University Glee club, di- rected by Roy Wilfred Tibbs, was heard in recital last night in the Rankin chapel by a large and enthusiastic audience of music lovers. The program, made up of 25 numbers, included read- ings by Alston Burleigh and a solo for piano, “The Beautiful Blue Danube,” (Schultz-Evler), permitting an exhibi- tion of execution, tone and shading by Harry G.

Claim: Against Alien Property Head Heard Hearing on the claim of Furness, Withy & Co., Ltd., a large British mari- time concern, for $129,114 against the alien property custodian was begun yesterday .before Justice Stafford in equity court. The amount claimed represents a verdict rendered against the plaintiff by the Belgian courts in connection with the employment of the plaintiff by a Belgian firm. As agent for the Belgian concern the plaintiff contracted with the American Lumber Co. and the Gulf Shipbuilding Co., which were operated by the alien property custodian, to build a motor schooner, but when the schooner was built, it is charged, the tonnage was less than that called for in the con- tract. Hence the suit in the Belgian courts. The. plaintiff now seeks to es- tablish a lien against the assets of the shipbuilders for the amount of the ver- dict rendered in Belgium. ‘in cash. | 3647, 3649 and 3651 Veazey street north- ~ ‘|west.

Safety for Fliers, Aim Of Radio Tower Paint The radio tower at the Washington navy yard is to be painted white and black in line with a Navy Department experiment to verify results of visi- bility tests made recently. The lower 117 feet and alternate panels from this level to the top, 300 feet, will be painted black, and the remaining panels white. Recent visibility tests indicated that a greater contrast exists between white and black than any other two common colors, and it ‘is believed that. radio towers, mooring masts and other struc- tures painted in alternate white and black bands, will become more readily discernible to aviators, thereby reduc- ing probability of accidents.

SHAREHOLDERS BLAMED FOR SALE OR TRANSFER Statutes, However, Would Uphold Possession by Firm; Says Hoover. George P. Hoover, counsel for the Washington Rapid Transit Co., yester- day filed with the public utilities com- mission a brief supporting the bus company’s application for resumption of the hearings on its application for permission to increase bus fares. The brief was in reply to the point raised by William McK. Clayton. that the bus concern wag without standing before the commission because nearly all of its outstanding capital stock had been acquired by the North American Co., of New York, without consent of Congress, in violation of an act ot Congress. Hoover does not pass on the legality of the North American Co.’s holding of bus company stock. In fact. he does not admit that it owns any, but Says that if it does such shares were not sold by the Washington Rapid Transit Co. and that .that concern Should not be penalized for an act of which it was. not guilty. The brief recited that Eugene B Thompson has registered in his name. as trustee, 21,207 of the 21.612 out- standing shares of stock, the remainder being held by 41 persons: that Thomp- son holds the shares as trustee for Robert Sealy, treasurer of the North American Co.; that the North American Co. had made advances for purchase of the. shares, but had not acquired them, although Sealy recognizes the bene- ficial interest of the New York con- cern in' the shares, and that no trans- fer of the ownership of the stock te the North American Co. has been noted on the books of the Washington Rapid ‘Transit Co. Violation is Denied. Hoover’s brief continues: “Even assuming that the said shares are beneficially owned by the North American Co., nevertheless we maintain that the holding of such ‘beneficial in- terest does not constitute a violation by the Washington Rapid Transit Co. of the statutory inhibitions. “The Washington Rapid Transit Co. did not, transfer dny portion of its stock or bonds to any corporation which is inhibited from owning or holding said shares of stock.» “Whatever may be the status of the North American Co. respecting the foregoing shares of stock, we desire to emphasize that the Washington Rapid Transit Co., which is the sole party bee fore the commission, has never sold or transferred any portion of its stock ofr bonds to. any other public utility or holding company whatsoever, and that, therefore, it can not be legally penal- ized for any acts of omission of its shareholders, whether corporate or in- dividual.” -——_— Utility Board Acts to Hire Valuation Experts Soon The public utilities commission took steps at its semiweekly meeting yester- day designed to insure organization next week of staff of experts and clerks to value, for rate revision, the property of the Washington Gas Light Co. and the Georgetown Gas Light Co. Letters were ordered sent to Andrew Sangster, of New York, valuation exe pert, and H. Carl Wolfe, engineer of the public service commission of Mary- land, asking them to come to Wash- ington to talk terms with the commus- sion. It is the desire of the commuis- sion, if possible, to obtain the services of the two to head the investigation. The commission also authorized the proposed changes of three one-man street car routes of the Washington Railway & Electric Co., to take place as soon as a right-turn switch is in- stalled at Ninth and E streets north- west, for use of the rerouted Anacos- tia line, The present Eleventh street-Brook- land line will be divided into two routes, one from Eleventh street to Anacostia and the other from Brookland to the bureau of engraving, every second car proceeding on through to the wharves. The Central High school-Anacostia line will be abandoned. The LeDroit cars will be routed to the Treasury, instead of to the wharves, except during rush periods, when they will proceed to the bureau of engraving. Authorization was voted for the Washington Railway & Electric Co. to purchase six new buses to augment service on its bus lines. Georgian Elected Horological Head J. P.
