MATTER MUST WAIT UNTIL 1931, HE SAYS Japanese Said to Expect a Compromise; British Proposal Praised. Geneva, June 23 (By A. P.).—Great Britain has utterly failed up to the present to win over the United States to her proposal to reopen and rediscuss the Washington naval treaty at, the Geneva tripartite conference. Continu- ing her efforts in that direction, Great Britain brought forward one of the most skilled and experienced diplomats in the British empire, Lord Cecil, who laid before Hugh 8S. Gibson, head of the American delegation today, the great desirability of reducing the size of battleships, aircraft carriers and cruisers, which was definitely fixed at the Washington parley. Lord Cecil put stress'on this from the standpoint of economy and practical expediency. Asked tonight at a press conference about the views of the American dele- gation on the reopening of the deci- sions taken at Washington, Ambassador Gibson replied that the delegation felt that, after all, President Coolidge had convoked the conference for the very clear and explicit purpose of extending the principles of the Washington treaty to auxiliary war craft, and that while this did not exclude other questions from consideration, he believed that the time to discuss such questions was in 1931, as provided in the treaty itself— a conference which will be held before any replacements of warships begin. “We can more profitably concentrate on the questions raised by the Wash- ington treaty,” he said, “when all five parties obligated to take it up are there.” Disillusionment Denied. Inquiry was made if there would not be some disillusionment if the Geneva conference did not take up the problem of reducing the size of battleships, to which Mr. Gibson replied there could be no disillusionment for not taking up a thing for which the conference had not been convened. The British spokesman informed the Associated Press correspondent that the British were convinced that reduction in the size of warships would not only mean economy to the tax payers but would be a real step toward outlawing wars. He insisted that Great Britain was justified in reopening the Wash- ington decisions at Geneva by the very text of Great Britain’s acceptance of President Coolidge’s invitation, when it declared that it “was prepared to con- CONTINUED ON PAGE 4, COLUMN 2. College Senior Kills Self With Revolver Joplin, Mo., June 23 (By A. P.).—Jeff Strange, jr., 19, senior at the University of Oklahoma, committed suicide here late last night by shooting himself in the mouth with a revolver. No motive other than ill health was advanced. Accompanied by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Strange, and two sisters, the youth was en route by automobile to Rochester, Minn., to undergo a medi- cal examination at the Mayo clinic They had stopped here to visit relatives. 3 DIE AS CLYDE SHIP SINKS A TRAWLER Steamer Ozark Is Run Into Shallow Water Off Bay State and Beached. Truro, Mass., June 23 (By A. P.).— Three lives were lost when the Clyde Line freight steamer Ozark, Jackson- ville for Boston, collided with the Beam trawler Surge, owned by the Bay State Fishing Co., of Boston, five miles off Cape Cod early today. All were members of the crew of the Surge, which sank 15 minutes after the collision. The Ozark, with a hole in her hull, was run into shallow water and beached. The Ozark this afternoon had driven it would be a hard job to float her, although Capt. Anderson believed it could be done at high water after the hole in the hull had been patched.

De Autremonis Confess Four “Beastly” Killings “Dastardly,” Brothers Admit, But Caused By Their Bitterness Toward World; Held Up Train and Slew Crew Members—Given Life Terms. Medford, Oreg., June 23 (By A. P.).— Confessions that they held up a South- ern Pacific passenger and mail train in the Siskiyou Mountains of Oregon in 1923 and killed four trainmen were made today by the three De Autremont brothers, Hugh, Ray and Roy. All were sentenced to life imprisonment in the penitentiary at Salem. Pleas of guilty were entered by the twins, Ray and Roy, following a clean breast of the whole affair made last night by Hugh, the younger brother, who was convicted of first degree mur- der Tuesday with recommendation of life imprisonment. In his cell in the county jail at Jacksonville today, Hugh, in the pres- ence of Ray and Roy, repeated the con- fession he had made to postal authori- ties and county officers last night. He said: “If the world must know, I killed the engineer (Sydney L. Bates, of Duns- muir, Calif.); Roy killed the fireman (Marvin Seng, of Dunsmuir), and Ray killed the brakeman (Coyle Johnson, of Ashland).” Hugh declared the holdup had its birth when Ray was in the Washington State Reformatory serving a term dur- ing the World War for criminal syndi- calism. “We all know it was a 0»beastly. dastardly crime as well as any one else,” he said. : “Ray came out of Monroe embittered against the world. He had been reading Darwin, Huxley, Schoepenhauer and all that stuff. His mind was saturated with hatred. “They accused him of radical syndi- calsim. Instead, he was just a Social- ist who wanted a square deal for every one. “Ray met his twin brother, Roy, and they talked over his ideas,” said Hugh, “and soon Roy had the same thoughts. They have always been close. “Shortly before my graduation from the high school at Artesia, N. Mex., Ray came for a visit. He talked this thing CONTINUED ON PAGE 17, COLUMN 4. RIMES, TED OUTLAW, CAUGHT IN GRAND CANYON Oklahoma Bandit Chief and Two Traveling Companions Seized After Shots. A TERROR TO’ BANKERS Grand Canyon, Ariz., June 23 (By A. P.).—Matthew Kimes, notorious Okla- homa bank robber, was captured under the “rim” of the Grand Canyon this afternoon by a posse led by Chief Forest Ranger J. P. Brooks, of the Grand Canyon National Park. There was a brief exchange of shots between Kimes, who was heavily armed, and the rangers, but no one was wounded. The capture of the outlaw followed the arrest a short time before in Bright Angel Cottage, at the edge of the Can- yon, of Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Cady, of Tulsa, Okla., with whom Kimes entered the park this morning. Kimes admitted his identity. “That’s me all right,” he said when shown an Oklahoma police circular carrying his photograph. The three were handcuffed together and put aboard the southbound 8 o’clock train from Grand Canyon in the custody of officers, for Flagstaff, Ariz. Muskogee, Okla., June 23 (By A. P.). Matthew Kimes, notorious Oklahoma outlaw, who has been arrested in Ari- zona, is under life sentence for mur- der in connection with the killing of Perry Chuculate, a deputy sheriff who was pursuing Kimes after the robbery of two banks at Covington, Okla. Ok- lahoma officials have connected his name with dozens of daring robberies which have held Oklahoma bankers in terror. He was released by confederates from jail at Sallisaw nearly a year ago, after his conviction. Prince of Wales 33; Flags Fly in London London, June 23 (By A. P.).—Gov- ernment buildings and West End clubs flew flags today in honor of the thirty- third birthday of the Prince of Wales. Apart from this time-honored custom of so marking the birthdays of the monarch and heir to the throne, there was no public recognition of the event. The prince had a luncheon engage- ment with the royal family for receiy- ing gifts. , The question the public is constantly asking—when is the prince going to marry—cropped out guardedly in the editorial comment of one newspaper, but Edward is saying nothing on the subject.

PLANS DERIDED BY WETS A split in the ranks of the newly-or- ganized Citizens Service Association for Law and Order occurred yesterday over the policy of the association in regard to extending its activities to include a drive against gambling dens and pro- fessional gamblers. Meanwhile, wet leaders rallied to battle formation and directed a verbal barrage against the association and its methods. Dr. Everett M. Ellison, secretary of the citizens’ group, declared that there are more than 80 gambling houses of considerable size operating here. “We are going after them,” he said. “The workers of this organization have been instructed to broaden the scope of their activities and we expect to be able to furnish the police with information concerning their location in the near future.” Harry N. Douthitt, former prohibli- tion agent, who conducts investigations for the association and was one of its organizers, said he knew nothing of the: plan. “We have our hands full checking up on the bootleggers,” he said. A promi- | nent clergyman, one of the leaders of the movement, said that he is not in favor of the crusade against the gam- bling fraternity @t thia time. He said that he was not informed of the plan before its announcement. He asked that his name be withheld. More than 50 reports were filed yes- terday, with names and addresses of persons suspected of liquor law viola- tions, Douthitt said. The association is attracting coun+ try-wide attention. Mail is received at its office daily from all parts of the country. Douthitt showed a letter CONTINUED ON PAGE 5, COLUMN 2. Plane Strikes Wires; Two Fatally Burned Richmond, Ind., June 23 (By A. P.). William Murphy, of Muncie, Ind., was burned to death and Clifford Helms, also of Muncie, was perhaps fatally in- jured late today when the plane in which. they were taking off from Berry Aviation Field, near here, struck high tension wires and fell. Murphy was pi- loting the plane. The ship immediately caught fire. It was not known whether Helms was thrown clear of the wreckage or man- aged to crawl out. 2 Alleged Gangsters Cleared in Third Trial Chicago, June 23 (By A.

State Game Lodge, Black Hills, 8. Dak., June 23.—Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood, gov- ernor general of the Philippine Islands, came here- today to report to President Coolidge, and he was a very sick man, but every member of his party. insisted that he would return to the Philippine Islands in September. After having been assisted from the train at Custer, 15 miles from here, he was brought to the Jodge in an automobile, accompanied by Col. Blanton Winship, the Presi- dent’s aide, and here he was persuaded to stay over night. For more than six hours newspaper reporters sought to see him, but he either was unable or disinclined to talk with them. He is known to have con- ferred at length with the President and with Majority Leader Tilson, of the House. He then took a long nap. His aide, Maj. B. Y. Read, and his personal physician, Capt. Lindsey Fletcher, both said the general would be able to return to the islands, the latter qualifying his statement with the provision, “if he will only let down and take it easy.” Another physician close to the general said it was the general’s desire to go back, even if he had to “die in his boots.” Despite these statements, and the de- sire of the President for him to go back, little hope is obtained in well in- formed quarters here that his health will permit him to do so. The general is suffering from the ef- fecte of a double hernia operation, which he recently underwent, and in addition from the breaking of two ribs -in an automobile, just before he left the islands. This injury was accen- tuated by a@ fall he had aboard ship a few days ago. The general is 65 years old. Moves With Difficulty. It was with difficulty that he moved today. He came from Vancouver, B. C., and left’ the train at Custer. President Coolidge and Mr. Tilson were in Rapid City, but Col. Winship met him with two automobiles. While the general’s complexion was good as he came from the train in the little mining town which was named after one of his kind, he was far from the upright figure, walking with but the slight limp which the public Knows so well.

He won his title because of aid in running down the no- torious Apache chief, Geronimo, while serving as an Army scout. The aged scout died at his home at Liberty, Ariz. He is survived by his widow, said to be 106 years old. He served with distinction under Gen. Winfield Scott in Mexico. ESCAPING GAS FATAL TO RESTAURATEUR M. J. Hennessy Found Dead in the Kitchen of His Apartment. Michael J. Hennessy, 55 yers old, a restaurant operator, was found dead in the kitchen of his apartment at 2700 Q street northwest, shortly after 2 o’clock yesterday afternoon. Gas was flowing from burners of a stove. Deputy Coro- ner Joseph D. Rogers began an investi- gation last night and declared that evi- dence pointed to accidental death. John P. Risdon, a resident of the apartment house, discovered the body. He detected the odor of gas coming from the rooms and forced his way into the apartment. Police of the Seventh Precinct were summoned and Hennessy was taken to Emergency Hospital, where physicians worked fruitlessly to revive him. Mr. Hennessy is survived by his wife and a son.

EXPECTED TO REMAIN UNTIL TOMORROW Held to Be Considering Giving Up Plan for National Lecture Tour. Col. Charles A. Lindbergh winged his way back to Washington yesterday to confer with the Nation’s “air cabinet” and determine what more he can do to promote American aviation. Lindbergh, who likes sleep about as much as he does trains, did not turn in until almost 1 o’clock this morning, al- though he had been up since about 6 yesterday morning. He is staying at the home of Secretary of Commerce Hoover. Harry F. Knight, one of Lindbergh’s backers, announced at 12:30 o’clock this morning that no decision had been reached regarding the filer’s future. That was the topic of discussion from the time Lindbergh got here. Lindbergh came pack in the same spectacular fashion in which he left after his return from Europe. Just be- fore he landed he sent his plane through a loop-the-loop and the two army fliers who accompanied him followed suit. But he was not the same in other respects. For one thing he seemed to be more serious; as though he had told himself that it was time to forget the tumult and the nor and “get down to business.” As a matter of fact, there wasn’t much shouting yesterday. Lindbergh rode up Pennsylvania avenue. along the same course where thousands cheered him twelve days ago, and not more than a half dozen people saw him. Small crowds gathered at three places for him—Bolling Field, the Department of Commercé Building and the Metro- politan Chib. He seemed to be ob- livious of their scattered applause, and he politely refused requests for his autograph. Cruise Down Potomac. The youthful airman arrived at Boll- ing Field in'an Army plane at 11:26 o'clock after a nonstop flight of 2 hours and 44 minutes from Dayton, Ohio. He went directly to the Depart- ment of Commerce Building, then had lunch with Secretary Hoover and others at the Metropolitan Club, and at 3 o’clock started on a three-hour cruise down the Potomac River on the Navy yacht Sylph. Returning from the cruise he had dinner as the guest of Assistant Secre- tary of War Hanford MacNider and Assistant Secretary of War Davison, and after that went to the home of Secre- tary Hoover. He is expected to stay here until tomorrow. Wherever he was—at luncheon, cruls- ing on the Sylph or at dinner—Lind- bergh was discussing that which brought him here—the question of how he can best help aviation in this country.

YOUTH WAS IN SWIMMING The day after his graduation from Western High School, George Francis Lawrie, 17 years cld, of 3102 Thirty- third place northwest, sank to his death while swimming. The tragedy occurred shortly after 5 o’clock yester- day in a pool known as Black Pond, on the farm of Ralph Powell near McLean, Va. The death brought to an end a gay picnic in celebration of the graduation. Miss Mary Fitch, daughter of C. W. Fitch, of McLean, was hostess to a score of her classmates on the Powell farm, a popular picnic spot. The gayety had progressed several hours before tragedy intervened. Lawrie and three companions had been in the pool half an hour when he essayed to swim across. Clarence McClaine, 16 years old, 3316 Newark street northwest, who witnessed the drowning, said Lawrie was half way across when he screamed for help, writhed as if seized with cramps and sank. His companions swam to his aid too late. They dived more than 20 minutes before recovering the body.. The body was taken to the Powell farmhouse, CONTINUED ON PAGE 5, COLUMN 2.

The Arctic expedition of Lieut. Comdr. Donald B.

The fire was extinguished with no dam- age, and Engineer Peter Peterson, of Essex, Mass., who was handling the torch, escaped with minor burns.

PLANE IS ON RUNWAY, WITH FUEL AND FOOD ‘Cloudburst Earlier in Night Endangers the America; Auto Holds Aero. Roosevelt Field, N. Y., June 23 (By A. P.).—The flight of the America was indefinitely postponed to- night when weather conditions failed to improve as they had been expected to do. ° Commander Byrd announced the postponement on advice of James Kim- ball, of the Weather Bureau. Kimball said a low-pressure area off Newfoundland made a flight inadvisable tonight, and that there were now no indications that conditions would be made favorable any time tomorrow. “It’s all off,” Byrd said, “Kimball tells me it would be best not to make a flight tonight, and I said right along I would be guided by his advice. “Just when I will be able to get off is problematic. It certainly seemed that our hop-off would surely take place. “But there is nO way to control the weather, and we shall have to go on and prepare for good weather.” Crowd Is Discouraged. The news of the postponement was received by the crowd which had been waiting at the field, with loud mur- murs of discouragement, and the hun- dreds of automobiles which had parked on the field, began rolling slowly away. The message sent by the Weather Bureau to Commander Byrd read: “Unsettled weather with clouds and fog prevailing from Nantucket north- eastward across the Gulf of St. Law- rence and drifting Eastward will make a start of the transatlantic flight hazardous and we are advising against a take-off tomorrow morning.” Kimball’s report to Byrd stated that there was a possibility that the flight might be possible Saturday, but that if it were made tomorrow, shifting winds of a dangerous nature would be en- countered all the way to Newfoundland. The weather man said that the severe thunder end rain stom that drenched the flying field tonight was general throughout New England and was symp- tomatic of the conditions from here to Newfoundland. Poised at the top of its elevated run- way, with wings spread like some great night bird, the Fokker monoplane America was ready tonight to hop off for Paris at the first streak of dawn. Shortly before 9 o’clock the plane was hauled out of the hangar and taxied to the top of the runway under its own power. Before being taken to the runway the plane was weighed, but the weight was not made public. ‘ Crew Takes a Nap. After seeing the plane in position Commander Byrd and the three mem- bers of his crew returned to their hotel to get a few hours rest before the hop off, which was then scheduled for 4 a. m. tomorrow. . As dusk settled over the field an ever-increasing stream of automobiles began to arrive. By the time the plane was on the runway. several thousand persons had gathered, hoping to witness the third American plane depart from this field for the European continent within a few weeks. Extra details of police were on hand. When the crew left the plane to go to their hotel, all that remained to be done was the final inspection by the corps of mechanics and fueling of the plane. Part of the’ specially tested gasoline for the three motors was at the runway; the rest was to be brought out after the weather report had been received. Cloudburst on Field. With the America poised on its rune this fiying field was suddenly deluged by a tropical cloudburst. The storm caused considerable con- cern, but no damage seemed to have been done when the rain stopped. The storm struck at 9:45 o’clock while thoue sands stood pressed against the police lines. Immediately the field was awash, All lights went out in the hangar, The storm stopped as quickly as it broke, and the crowds stepped .gingerly back to the field from their cars.

I have had no opportu- nity yet to form opinions or policies and I wish to defer expression on them so that I will not commit myself to anything that I will later wish to change. “I would like to say, however, that l hope to have the confidence and co- operation of the press and the public. I am aware of the excellent reputation acquired by Col. Bell for cordial rela- tions with the newspaper men and the citizens. It will be hard to live up to but that is what I want to do. I want to meet the représéntatives of citizen groups and the members of the Citizens Advisory Council and get their points of view. 1 want the newspaper men to call on me freely. “It is only possible for me, further, to make the general statement that any- one would make in a like situation— that I am here to give my best effort to all the interests concerned, the Federal Government, the municipal organiza- tions and the citizens.” Veterans’ Caravan Will Travel Today re The American War Veterans Club will hold its annual week-end motor cara- van to Orkney Springs, Va., today.

That is why he hastened here when he re- ceived a “summons” from the air cabinet—William P. MacCracken, jr., Assistant Secretary of Commerce; F. Trubee Davison, Assistant Secretary of | Secretary of the Navy. These three comparatively young men have as their task the building up of aviation in this country, both from a commercial standpoint and a national! defense standpoint. To a great extent they work together, because it is realized commerciai planes and fliers are a potential reserve for the Army and Navy. No man in the world can do more to help the three Air Secretaries than Lindbergh, they realize that. Hence the conference at this time. Plans Yet Undecided. Just what Lindbergh will do to fur- ther the present boom in aviation had not been decided late yesterday. Mr. MacCracken said a definite plan might not be reached until tomorrow. While he is here Lindbergh also will plan for his own future, It was said by & man close to him yesterday that he was thinking seriously of abandoning his plan to go on a lecture tour of the country. There is little likelihood that the flier will take a ‘government post, it was said, because to ask him to ac- cept such a post, when he has a chance to earn a fortune, would be demanding too great a sacrifice. The three St. Louis men who backed Lindbergh’s flight—Harry F. Knight, Harold M. Bixby and Maj. William Rob- ertson—were with the airman at all times yesterday and took part in all the conferences. Last night they, too, slept under the roof of Secretary Hoover. Planes Go Into Loop. When Lindbergh was sighted from Bolling Field he was héading a V-shaped formation of three planes. Piloting the other two were Capt. St. Clair Streett and Maj. Thomas G. Lamphier. As the planes came over the field, all three went into a loop. After eating a light buffet luncheon at the home of Maj. Harvey B. Bur- well at Bolling Field, Lindbergh was driven to the Department of Commerce Building. The employes were on their half-hour luncheon period at the time | and had gathered outside to give the hero a cheer. From there Lindbergh went to the! Metropolitan Club with Secretary Hoover for luncheon, and he faced an- other crowd as he came out. He ar- rived at the navy yard at 2:40 o’clock and boarded the Syiph while a cannon boomed out a fifteen-gun salute for Assistant Secretary of the Navy Warner. The party waited twenty minutes for Maj. Lamphier and then shoved Off. Ohio Towns Give Special Escort to Fake Lindbergh Cleveland, June 23 (By A. P.)-— Cities, towns and villages between here and Toledo today made hasty prepara- tions for police escorts for an automo- bile said to be carrying Col. Charles Lindbergh and his mother, and, in one instance, escorted “the party” through the city and village limits. But Col. Lindbergh and his mother were not in the “party,” and who the “party” was and who sent the telegrams saying the distinguished visitors would pass across northern Ohio had not been explained tonight. ‘In all instances the telegrams bore a Detroit date asking that special po- lice escorts be provided for the party, as it was the desire that no crowds stop progress of the “party.” At Elyria a gaily bedecked car, with red, white and blue ribbons, was met by two county police who, with much pomp, gave the party a clear right-of- way to Rocky River, near Cleveland. At that point the two motorcycle police- men turned for home, thinking they had had the honor of escorting the distinguished flier and his mother. In Cleveland, police having learned that Col. Lindbergh was en route to Washington and that Mrs. Lindbergh was in Detroit, waited on the high level bridge to arrest occupants of the car. But the car did not appear and police believe it took an out-of-the-way route or circled Cleveland. Police declared the small city and town authorities were the victims of some jokester. Norwalk police reported they went to the city limits to meet the car, but missed The Lorain County police said the car contained a young man at the wheel and an elderly lady and a small boy in the rear seat.

LUNCHROOM IS ENTERED One of the 34 men trapped in a raid by police early last night on the third floor of 521 Thirteenth street north- west made his escape by jumping through a rear window. Police had difficulty restraining others from at- tempting the three-story leap. One man was held by his hair while police pulled him back. Edward Tipton, 30 years old, was held under $2,000 bond at the First precinct, charged with setting up a gaming table. The others were detained as witnessss. Following the Thirteenth street raid, the police, accompanied. by revenue of- ficers, raided the lunchroom at 212 Ninth street northwest, arresting three men. The prisoners gave their names as Joseph Oliveri, 47 years old, 1149 Morse street northeast; James Noonan, 28 years, 624 Twenty-third street north- west, and John R. Purdy, 24 years, 314 E street northeast. Oliveri was charged with possession of liquor, Purdy with sale and possession: and Noonan with possession. The three were released under a $3,000 bond. Police confiscated more than $80 in silver from the Thirteenth street ad- dress. According to police, they were “accidentally tipped off” to the Ninth street address. One of the revenue men went to the Thirteenth street ad- dress primarily to make a purchase of alleged liquor. He was “referred” to the Ninth street address. When police saw what was going on at the Thir- teenth street address, they said they decided to “kill two birds with one stone.” Those participating in the raids were Sergt. O. J. Letterman and Policemen J. E. Kane, A. A. McCall, M. B. Payne and R. 8. Bryant, of the First precinct, and Revenue Officer B. N. Quinn. The raiders confiscated five gallons of al- leged liquor and seven cases of beer at the Ninth street address. OOTH YEAR OBSERVED BY ROYAL ARCANUM Addresses, Music, Songs and Magic Feature Fraternal Birthday Party. The local grand and subordinate councils of the Royal Arcanum last night celebrated the fiftieth birthday of the order in Odd Fellows Temple, 419 Seventh street northwest. An ad- dress of congratulation on the success- ful completion of the half-century mark was given by Arthur B. Eaton of Philadelphia. Members of the order, their families and friends attended the meeting, which was conducted on an elaborate scale. Following Mr. Eaton’s speech, the Club Windsor Orchestra played, and there were solos and duets by Dorothy Wilson Halbach and Edgar Halbach. Archie Engel, Washington magician, performed legerdemain tricks. W. W. Schoonmaker, grand regent, presided, and presented a prize to every child less than 12 years old. The Royal Arcanum was organized by eight men in Boston June 23, 1877, and today is one of the oldest fraternal organizations in existence. At present it has a membership of approximately 125,000 in the United States and Canada, with six local councils in Washington.

FRIDAY, JUNE 24, 29 OVERT ACTS CITED IN TWO TRUE BILLS Both to Plead Not Guilty When ‘Arraigned Today Before Justice Hoehling. Dr. Dee Hammer, chiropractor, of 309 Maryland avenue northeast, and Mrs. Anna Apolonio, will be arrainged be- fore Justice Hoehling in Criminal Court No. 1, District Supreme Court, at 10 o'clock this morning to plead to two indictments returned against them yesterday afternoon by a grand jury which investigated an alleged plot against the life of Mrs. Apolonio’s hus- band, Joseph Apolonio, of 601 Eleventh street northeast. Counsel for Mrs. Apolonio and Dr, Hammond declared last night that they will both plead not guilty when they are arrainged. One indictment charges a conspiracy to commit murder, and the other in- dictment charges that these defendants solicited the aid of and attempted to procure one Robert F. Langdon, also known as Robert F. Lawrence, a detec- tive assigned to the Ninth Precinct, to commit the murder. District Attornéy Peyton Gordon and appear to have ignored the attitude of Joseph Apolonio,.-who apparently re- fused to believe that his wife was in- volved in any scheme to end his life. Apolonio was convinced of hig wife's innocente to the extent that he fur- nished bond for her release after the arrest on May 31. Apolonio owns the Capitol Sheet Metal Works. Dr. Ham- mer is 41 years old and Mrs. Apolonio is 42. Apolonio carries two life insur- ance policies. One is for $1,000 and the other for $2,000, and the latter amount is doubled in case of accidental death Counsel for Dr. Hammer has consist- ently maintained that his client is in- nocent, and that the entire case is a “frame-up.” The doctor’s attorney as- serts that there is absolutely no foun- dation for the charges against him. The case has been made up entirely out of “whole cloth,” he has said, and declares that they can prove it so. 29 Overt Acts Charged. There are 29 overt acts charged in the conspiracy indictment. The promis- sory notes alleged to have been ex- ecuted and delivered to Detective Lang- don and to a private detective named Harry R.

The case was called to the attention of the police by Detective Thompson who, according to overt act No. 1, talked over the alleged murder plan with Dr. Hammer on March 28.

Arnold Antique Shop, 1323 G street northwest, May 24 last, of $60,000 in-gems and antiques, following the recovery yesterday of 217 diamonds and other jewels in Detroit and approximately $10,000 in jewels in New York City several days ago.

RAILWAY MEN ADVOCATE ELASTIC HOURS OF WORK Executives Would Lengthen Day During the Period of Business Activity. SEE BENEFIT TO MEN (By the Associated Press.) A flexible arrangement whereby in time of business activity a working day might be increased to nine or ten hours, was suggested yesterday by a commit- tee of leading railway executives in @ report on means of stabilizing labor employment in the transportation in- dustry. Headed by Daniel Willard, president of the Baltimore & Ohio, the commit- tee said that while “there seems ta be a general tendency at the present time to recognize the eight-hour day in most lines of employment, there iz much to be said in favor of a certain elasticity in the number of hours to be worked.” “If the day could be increased from eight to nine and even ten hours in times of business activity, and be re- duced to eight hours in times when business is less active, such a policy would enable carriers to employ a more uniform force throughout the year and avoid the necessity of laying off or fur- loughing large numbers of men in times of recession,” the report continued. The committee held that the stability of employment was reflected directly in efficient and economic operation of the carriers and recommended that the roads give careful consideration to this problem. “It is most important that there should be a sufficiently liberal margin between operating revenue and operat- ing expenses,” the committee said, “so that ths carriers may be able: “(a) To initiate broader policies par- ticularly with reference to their mainte- nance program, and adopt plans for spreading or distributing such work throughout the year regardless of cur- rent monthly revenues. ; “(b) To eliminate, so far as possible, temporary or emergency expenditures.” FIRE RECORD. m.—1583 Fourteenth gasoline tank. 12:46 p. m.—Thirtieth street and Pennsyl- vania avenue southeast; automobile. 1:3 m.—Fiedmont apartments, 217 F street northwest; awnings. 3:30 p. m.—New Jersey avenue and B street northwest; automobile. 9:25 p. m.—Rear 126 Fifteenth street south- east; trash. 10:30 p. m.—Nichols place southeast; false. 11:22 a. west; street porth- avenue and Halley Forty-seven Million HAT is a figure for the United States Trea- sury to contemplate.

Is Stresemann’s Query; Ruhr or Locarno. —_—— + INSISTS ON PROMISE TO WITHDRAW TROOPS —— ll Soviet Strongly Advised to Drop Propaganda in Countries Abroad. Berlin, June 23 (By A. P.).—In a vigorous speech before the reichstag today, Foreign Minister Stresemann re- plied to Premier Poincare’s anti-German strictures of last Sunday, advised Soviet Russia to cease propaganda abroad, and warned the powers that they must change their attitude toward disarm- ament. Declaring that it would be unneces- gary to refute M. Poincare’s accusations, he asked: “What does he (Poincare), really want—the Ruhr or Locarno?” and added: “It is impossible to have both.’ Warning to Russia. Dr. Stresemann’s address began as a report to the reichstag on the recent meeting of the League of Nations council in Geneva. “We naturally talked about the Anglo-Soviet break, which is an event of prime importance,” he said, “but no matter how the situation may develop, we shall not change out policies, which were laid down in the pact of Locarno and the treaty of Berlin (with Russia).” An unmistakable warning was given to Moscow by Dr. Stresemann that it must discontinue its foreign propagan- da, when he said: “The other powers have a full un- derstanding of our position and I also have the feeling that all the countries maintaining diplomatic relations with Russia desire a free hand to the extent of being permitted to conduct such re- lations without being influenced by others. They, however, also are emphatic in their demands that Russia abandon its propaganda abroad. ” Disarmanent Is Vital. Touching on disarmament, the for- eign minister said: “I can only warn the other governments that they must change their attitude toward the prob- lem of disarmament. The life or death of the principles for which the League of Nations stands depends upon its s0- lution.” Reduction of the forces of occupa- tion in the Rhineland, he stated, did not hinge upon concessions to be made by Germany, but constituted @ promise given to Germany at the Locarno con- ference. “We have the formal right to expect this reduction, and must insist upon its fulfillment in the interests of keep- ing alive faith in the Locarno idea,” he declared. Referring to the speech by Premier Poincare at lLuneville Sunday, Dr. Stresemann said: “I could refute many of his accusa- tions, but I will not do so. We will not get far by resurrecting the old differ- ences, and then, too, the world is al- ready too far advanced in its knowl- edge of the facts. Can Not Have Both. “If M.*Poincare desires relations with Germany improve, he will find a grate- ful echo here. He has no right to question our sincerity, as Chancellor Marx and his cabinet are pledged to continue their peaceful policies.” Asserting that Germany had or- ganized her police force to meet the allied wishes, had broken up the il- legal military organizations and had destroyed her fortifications he asked: “Does Poincare wish to open or to block the way to an understanding? His Luneville speech can be inter- preted both ways, but what does he really want—the Ruhr or Locarno? It is impossible to have both. “We are ready and eager to grasp the hand of friendship, but’ not the hand of the victor reached down to the van- quished. We ask Quo vadis France? (Whither goest thou, France?) “We took upon us the heavy obliga- tions of the Dawes plan and subscribed to the Locarno treaty, but now we ex- pect France also to do its part.” Seviet Executes Ten More As Terrorist Ratders Moscow, June 23: (By A. P.).—Ten terrorists known as “Kobilinski Garas,” members of a band allegedly operating over the Polish frontier, have been shot and nineteen others taken pris- oners, says a dispatch from Kiev to the Pravda. The terrorists are charged with having attacked Soviet officials and looted villages in their border raids. London, June 23 (By A. P.).—Com- munist executions are looked for at Ningpo, in the Chinese province of Cheking, says a Reuter dispatch from that place. The Nationalist general, Yenghu, commanding the Shanghai area, is reported to have arrived at Ningpo with a bodyguard of 200 men and 12 executioners, the understand- ing being that he intends to pass the week-end dealing with local commu- ' niste. An intensive anti-British boycott is in progress at Ningpo, the dispatch adds, red or semired unionism being strong. The anti-British movement is unpopular among the merchants. Soviet Paraders Menace Guards on Polish Border (Special Cable Dispatch.) Warsaw, June 23.—The reds on the Polish border-went on the warpath to- day. Their parade:men from the Dis- trict of Minsk assembled near Kra- jarsk and their fleriest soap-box or- ators spurted forth invectives against Poland and Great Britain to the as- sembled multitudes. With brass bands and red banners carrying anti-Polish inscriptions such as “Revenge for Com- rade Voikoff whom the Poles killed,” they marched along the Polish border for several hours, singing “The Inter- nationale” and threatening the Polish guards with clubs, fists and guns. But Warsaw had warned the border _ guards against red provocations. -De- ee ee SPECIAL RATES TO SUMMER-’ TIME GUESTS -: 16th St. at M- Only Few Minutes Distant from Heart of Business ‘Liner Is to Catapalt Passengers in Planes New York, June 23 (By A.

ARE TO FLY 10 MOSCOW Will Sail for Home July 12; Air Trip to Prague Is Made in Storm. WELCOMED BY CZECHS Vienna, Austria, June 23 (By A. P.).— Vienna bade farewell to the transat- lantic fliers, Clarence Chamberlin and Charles Levine, today, the two Amert- cans nosing their plane into a sky filled with heavy rain clouds to keep their rendezvous with Prague. Few Austrian airmen thought they would get through, for reports from Znaim and Iglau said that strong winds and rain along the route made the air lane over the mountains all but impassable. Chamberlin waited om the airfield at Aspern most of the day for the ex- pected Czech escort, which never came, and at 4:30 p. m. he decided to take off, whatever the weather. Prague, Czechoslovakia, June 23 (By P.).—Flying from Vienna through wind and rain, Chamberlin and Le- vine arrived here late this afternoon to find that the people of Prague, who had awaited them by the thousands for many long hours, had all gone back to their work or play, having given up hope of seeing the American transat- lantic fliers today. All morning the roads swarmed with automobiles and pedestrians. The city was gay with American and French flags. Officials of the government waited patiently at the airdrome for the fliers. Shortly after noon it was announced that the Americans would not fly today and that the regular cel- ebrations had been abandoned, so the crowds’ went home. When the: news finally came from Vienna that they had taken off, only a few officials -had time to hurry to the field, for the flight required less than two hours. The president of the Aero Club, the mayor and the secretary of the American Legation were among those who welcomed them. The airmen proceeded to the Ameri- can Legation and the news of their arrival spread rapidly, and soon the streets were filled with cheering Czechs. The municipality has reserved the en- tire floor of a hotel for the airmen, their wiveg and others who followed them by train. The American Minister, Lewis Ein- stein, gave the airmen a heary greet- ing, and then introduced them to the diplomatic corps. A reception followed. They plan to stay at Prague until Saturday morning. Mr. Levine said today that they had accepted an invitation to fly to Mos- cow, but that no date has been set. They expect to sail for home July 12. MYSTERY REPORTED IN NUNGESSER HUNT “Something Suspicious” Seen by Fliers, Who Will Return to Investigate. Chicoutimi, Quebec, June 23 (By A. P.).—Aviators in the flying boat G-Caeg, who have been flying over the north- east region of the Saguenay River in search of the missing French airmen, Nungesser and Coli, prepared today to investigate “something suspicious” they saw while passing over Pointe Du Lac yesterday. Observation was rendered difficult yesterday by forest fires for the men who have been investigating reported flare signals, but rain during the night was believed to have quenched . the flames so that visibility would be good today. On returning last night the aviators said they had seen no aign of the Frenchmen, but told of their plans for at Pointe Du Lac, the nature of which they did not disclose. Two more search parties are to be sent into the region where “signals” have been seen, it was announced to- day, by local lumber merchants. Each party will consist of a small boat manned by two men. , spite the imprecations of the infurl- ated reds, they remained passive and the peace was: saved. The border guards received special congratulations from the Polish capital for the ‘“‘poise and dignity shown under the most dif- ficult conditions.” : In Death Cell 3 Times, Adventurer Is Hopeful Chicago, June 23 (By A.

MARSHAL FENG BREAKS WITH COMMUNIST GROUP Warns That Borodin, Russian, Will Be Expelled. Shanghai, June 23 (By A. P.).—Brig. Gen. Smedley D. Butler, arriving to- day here from Peking aboard the U. S. S. Richmond, strongly intimated that further American marine forces will proceed north shortly. Gen. Butler, who is in command of all the American marine forces in China, said: “The transport Hender- son is here from Manila loaded to the gunwhales with supplies and the Chau- mont’s 1.150 marines are all aboard and ready for orders.” The general declared that the for- eign forces at Peking and Tientsin ex- pect that the nationalists, who are mak- ing a. drive on those two cities, will arrive some time between the list and 15th of July, and are preparing ac- cordingly in case of any antiforeign outbreaks. Gen. Butler himself, plans to return north shortly. The nationalists’ “boring within” methods are sweeping the north, Gen. Butler told the Associated Press. “The humblest farmers in the most out of the way areas, who are unable to read, are fully informed of the na- tionalst program,” he said. “I visited swamp lands 35 miles from Tientsin, where the most ignorant peasants were interpreting the invasion of the na- tionalists as heralding a panacea for all ills—such as making rain and similar wonders.” British Aviators Criticized. He said “hat the southerners were not overlooking antiforeign activities and were informing the peasants that British aviators were flying over Chinese territory at Shanghai, “violating Chinese sovereignty.” Sentiment throughout the north was in favor of the south, the general said, stating that the nationalist movement undoubtedly had -been most thoroughly implanted nationally. Cooperation of Marshal Feng Yu- Hsiang, once known as “the Christian general,” and Gen. Chiang Kai-Shek, leader of the moderate nationalists in a drive on the north and a break be- tween Marshal Feng with the com- munist element at Hankow which have been supporting him, today marked an important step for possible removal of the breach between the Hankow and Nanking regimes in south Caina. As a result of conferences at Suchow between the two powerful Southern leaders, Marshal Feng has sent an ulti- matum to Hankow demanding that certain members of the Hankow regime, including the Russian, Michael Borodin, who has been acting as adviser, leave for abroad and that the remaining members proceed to Nanking immedi- ately to join in the operations against the North. Communism “Must Go.’ At the same time Marshal Feng and Gen. Chiang issued a proclamation, stating that communism must go and calling upon their troops to uphold the principles of the late Dr. Sun Yat Sen, the Republican leader, “for the ever- lasting glory of China.” Gen. Chiang Kai-Shek announ the immediate launching of a drive forth- ward through the province of Shantung on Tientsin and Peking, while it was stated that Marshal Feng Yu-Hsiag would begin his northward drive on July 1 ,from the province of Honan. It was reported that the two gen- erals planned to meet in the Tientsin- Peking area and then to make a tri- umphal entry into the northern capital. Feng has returned to Chengcehow, which he recently captured, to prepare for the launching of his drive. Hu Nan-Min, executive head of the civil government at Nanking, declared today that the Nanking regime would assume the honest obligations of the Hankow government, but that Borodin, Eugene Chen, the Hankow foreign min- ister and George Hsu-Chien, the Han- kow minister of justice, must be elimi- nated. Hu Han-Min said that George Hsu-Chien was a confirmed radical and that Eugene Chen, who played a large part in the negotiations that followed the capture of Hankow by the Nation- alists, was undesirable. MACKAYE GIRL FACES STATE'S QUIZZ TODAY Rebuttal Testimony Likely to Lengthen Trial of Holly- wood Actress. Los Angeles, Calif.. June 23 (By A. P.).—Rebuttal testimony expected from the State probably will extend the trial of Dotothy Mackaye, charged with con- spiring to conceal the facts in the death of her actor husband, Ray Ray- mond, into next week. A large calendar in Judge Charles Burnell’s court forced a postponement of the trial from yes- terday until tomorrow morning. The rebuttal testimony is expected as a re- sult of a question asked of Miss Helen Wilkinson, chum of Miss Mackaye, who preceded the actress on the stand Wednesday. It was whether the girl had not said: “What is a little perjury if it will save some one from going over the hill? If they call on me, I am go- ing to fight.” She denied having made the remark to a policewoman. Cross-examination of Miss Mackaye will be started tomorrow. Her testi- mony yesterday was to th¥effect that no efforts had been made by her to “cover up” facts in Raymond’s death. two days after a fist fight with Paul Kelly, screen juvenile, and lover of Miss Mackaye. Kelly is under conviction of manslaughter for the actor’s death. The State charges that Miss Mackaye con- spired with Dr. W. J.

EXCITEMENT IN DUBLIN 1S GREATEST FOR YEARS Doors Locked and Guarded Against Republicans, Who Fail to Take Oath. Dublin, Ireland, June 23 (By A. P.). Critical hours in the life of the Irish Free State were passed today as the newly elected Dail Eireann convened under threats of possible trouble from Eamon de Valera and his Republican followers. But the peace of the capital remained unbroken, and tonight Will- iam T. Cosgrave, reelected president of the executive council by a vote of 68 to 22, is again head of the government. Not since Sinn Fein days has there been such political excitement in Dub- lin, and much of it centered around De Valera as it did in those tragic times. Early in the morning he was in an automobile smashup but escaped injury, and then led his 44 Fianna Fail deputies through the streets to Leinster House, where they demanded their seats as duly elected members of the dail. But they refused to take the oath of allegiance- to what they termed a “foreign king” and they were barred from the chamber and the formalities of opening the dail and the reelection of President Cosgrave were carried out while De Valera and his followers paced restlessly in the corridors outside the locked and guarded doors of the dall chamber, At length the De Valerites retired to the Fianna Fail headquarters, where their leader declared that the demonstration at the dail was only the first step in a campaign for the removal of the oath of allegiance to the British sovereign. Carried Out Public Mandate. The Republican leaders, including Lord Mayor French of Cork City, ex- plained that they had attended the dail for the purpose of carrying out the mandate of the people to take their seats without subscribing to the oath to a foreign king. They had been kept out by those who objected to criticism of the extravagance and maladminis- tration of the government. But if these people had escaped criticism in the dail, declared Mr. de Valera, they would get it at the cross roads. The Republicans would go back to the peo- ple and tell them what had happened and with the pressure of the people behind them, the barriers would go and the people’s representatives would meet shortly without any oath of allegiance to a foreign king. Within the dail chamber itself the uncertainty over the political situation was as great as it was in the corridors without. As soon as Mr. Cosgrave’s reelection was moved, he intervened and declared that no party had a ma- jority, and that all the opposition parties had attacked his government as incompetent, autocratic and extrava- gant. All these parties, he continued, had made promises to the voters, but none had put forward sufficient-knowl- edge to secure a majority. They must have visualized a coalition. Attacks Anti-Oath Agitation. Mr. Cosgrave announced that he would accept responsibility of govern- ment only upon his own terms. He made a vigorous attack on the anti- oath agitation, and declared that the Fianna Fail deputies had not been kept out of the Dail by reason of the oath, but were sheltering behind it on sub- terfuge, knowing that their fantastic promises could*not be fulfilled. Notwithstanding that many youthful Republicans had been urged to come to Dublin, and seemingly most 6f them came, to lend support to the De Vale- rites, the great demonstration which was promised a few days ago did not come about. The government took rig- orous precautions, and Leinster House and all adjacent streets were closely guarded. The streets were even closed to traffic, and Gen. O’Duffey, head of the Civic Guards, warned the public to Keep their distance during the after- noon and evening hours. Any one passing the police cordon had to be identified and vouched for. Mr. De Valera and his followers were permitted to enter Leinster House and were conducted to a committee room. When asked to take the oath of alle- giance they refused, but remained in the building for several hours in the hope possibly that they could event- ually find a way into the chamber where the Dail was sitting. Kevin O'Higgins, former vice presi- dent and minister of justice in the Free State cabinet, will take the min- istry of foreign affairs in addition to the ministry of justice in the new cabinet, it was announced tonight. Peter Hughes Defeated. Desmond Fitzgerald, who held the foreign affairs portfolio, will become minister of defense, succeeding Peter Hughes, who was defeated for reelec- tion at the recent poll. Richard Mulcahy will be minister. for local government and public health. Succeeding James Burke, who will be named parliamentary secretary to the ministry. These were the only changes in the former Cosgrave cabinet. Patrick Ho- gan, minister for lands and agriculture, and Joseph J. Walsh, postmaster gen- eral, who formerly were not -‘members of the executive council, will now. be added to the council. : Van Lear Black Flies to Karachi. Karachi, British India, June 23 (By A.

NAMEN CONTINUE HUNT FOR COMMANDER HACTOR Inquiry Into Seaplane Loss Ordered as Lieut. Fisher Takes All Blame. BODY’S IDENTITY SOUGHT San Diego. Calif.. June 23 (By A. P.).—Beiief that Lieut. Comdr. Will- iam 5. Hactor, operations officer of the naval air station here, may have sur- vived the sinking of a naval torpedo plane off Laguna Beach, Tuesday night, kept Navy airmen and mariners busy searching for him in the waters near here today. An inquiry into the cause of the accident was ordered after Lieut. Thomas Fisher, pilot of the plane, as- sumed responsibility for it. Lieut. Fisher was found stumbling along the beach after he had made a 4-mile swim to shore after the plane went down. Whether. Chief Machinist’s Mate Charles K. Robbins, the third member of the plane’s crew, is dead or alive was not known, but efforts were made to, identify a body which was washed ashore at Newport Beach, north of here, which was said to generally re- semble the petty officer. News of the accident was not made knowr until Lieut. Fisher's story had started a search for Hactor and Rob-, bins. It was a story of a fight with the fog and a miscalculation of the height at which his plane was flying. Lieut. Fisher said they left Crescent City, Calif., early Tuesday for San Diego, and that when they encountered fog he dropped to a low altitude, hop- ing to fly under it. Before he knew how near he was to the water's sur- face, the plane struck the water. JANE BRADY IS BRIDE OF F. S. MOSELEY, JR Heiress to $10,000,000 Weds in Presence of 700 So- ciety Notables.

Hud- speth told him the out¢ome depended on the convicts. He asked Heslop to find out what the convicts wanted and then the officials would consider the situation. It was pointed out that Hes- lop’s voice did not sound weak and that he may have been forced by the con- victs to talk. of the convicts was in: sight.

In a long statement, transmitted over the mine telephone, the convicts denied that the mutiny was to enforce de- mands for cigarettes, which are forbid- den under the prison rules. GARFINCKEL&CO.

Fires in 3 Churches ~ Admitted by Suspect Indianapolis, June 28 (By A. P.).— Roy Gordon, 50, New York, was held on arson and vagrancy charges today under $25,000 bond while police inves- tigated three fires in Roman Catholic churches here during the last three days. Fire department officials from Cincinnati, Ohio, also sought to ques- tion Gordon in connection with three recent fires at Catholic churches in that city. After being questioned today by Claude M. Worley, chief of detectives, Gordon confessed that he was respon- sible for the three church fires. He signed the confession with the name Maurice De La Tour. He called for a typewriter and wrote the confession himself, Worley said. F StrEET-CorNeER oF 13™ 480-Mile Race Winner Grants Pass, Oreg., June 23 (By A.

A written statement from the Board of Administration, rejecting, or accept- ing the demands was called for in the ultimatum. Their Wives Are. Worried. Wives of eleven of the fourteen guards held captive by mutinous con- victs in the coal mine at the Kansas penitentiary here are becoming anxious over the safety of their husbands and May appeal to Gov. Paulen to do some- thing to get them free, it was learned today. Three of the guards’ wives called on the other eight wives last night, it was learned, and discussed sending a dele- gation to the governor to demand that action be taken to bring the guards up from the 720-foot level of the mine where they have been held since the convicts seized the workings Tuesday morning. Oats, issued as rations for mules, today constituted the only food known to be available to 328 convicts. and their fourteen captive guards barricaded in the prison coal mine here since 11 o'clock Tuesday morning. As the mutineers passed their forty-fifth hour under ground there was nothing to in- dicate they wished to withdraw their ultimatum “No cigarettes, no coal.” Prison authorities said the noon meal sent down the 720-foot shaft shortly before the strikers blocked the cage, would have been exhausted last night at the latest. This would leave only 30 bushels of oats intended for the 17 mules used in the mine. Possibility that men would butcher the mules as they threatened during a previous mutiny was scouted by Deputy Warden R. H. Hudspeth, in charge. A large mirror was swung down the mine shaft today and another was rigged up at the surface making a gigantic periscope with which officials could look down the shaft to the mine tunnel 720 feet below ground. The mouth of the tunnel had been blocked by timbers, it was discovered and none Lacey Simpson, member of the prison board, learning permission had been granted. E.

Duncan, Okla., June 23 (By A. P.).— Charged with the murder of the alleged assailant of his daughter, Arch Gil- breath, farmer, tonight was free on $10,000 bond furnished by ten of the scores of friends who rushed forward to assist in obtaining his release. Gilbreath, who late yesterday shot B. F. Cox to death in a crowded court room here, waived preliminary hearing when arraigned today and was bound over to district court for trial October 3. A jury was being selected to try Cox on a charge of assaulting Gilbreath’s daughter and another young woman when Gilbreath pressed to the front of the court room and shot the de- fendant in the back three times, killing him almost. instantly. Cox was alleged to have attacked three young women here one night last April and to have robbed; their men escorts. When the amount of the farmer’s bond was agreed upon, sympathizers swarmed to the front of the court, room asking for the privilege of signing. . County Attorney J. H. Long said he would disregard public esentiment in prosecuting Gilbreath. ae + = ‘ 7 ae ~~ - a a = ’ ———— . : i y ' ' iit) = ~ = 7) oa 5 cae i= & © { ¥. ‘| Is Sound and Good ae i ie'e ~leseat F ruit You Buy at Piggly Wiggly Pare ee fink 4 4 HOME-GROWN VEGETABLES WATERMELONS Fancy Georgia Watsons 45c BEETS 3 Bunches .. 10c CARROTS 3 Bunches .. 10c Bananas. . .Doz., 23c Beans 6°.

be? F. * = - FY Py. at + a RUNGE PROPOSES EUURITY TREATY TO UNITED STATES Suggestion Regarded Here as “Smoke Screen” to Cover Debt Situation. HERRICK WILL BRING TEXT TO WASHINGTON Kellogg Can Decline to Ne- gotiate by Referring to Bryan Pacts. By ALBERT W. FOX. Secretary of State Kellogg has been advised by Myron T. Herrick, American Ambassador to France, that the French foreign office has drafted a written memorandum respecting a Franco- American security pact which it has transmitted to the ambassador for the consideration of President Coolidge. Mr. Herrick cables that he-is bringing the draft with him to the United States. ¢ It appears that the French virtually have outlined a suggested text for the proposed pact. With his usual states- manship and diplomatic skill, Foreign Minister Briand of France thus has suc- ceeded in thrusting the security pact idea into the foreground of interna- tional relations precisely at the time when France was in danger of being embarrassed diplomatically through her failure to ratify the Mellon-Berenger debt agreement and through her re- fusal to attend the conference on naval armaments at Geneva. France, with the assistance of Ameri- can internationalists, now counts upon diverting public attention from her iso- lated position respecting naval arma- ments and expects to maneuver Presi- dent Coolidge and Secretary Kellogg into a position where the Briand peace jecture will assume a sufficiently im- portant position in international af- fairs to offset the effect*of the naval conference and the debt question. Briand has played his cards in such a manner that it is difficult, if not im- possible, for the United States Gov- ernment to check his plan. Must Receive Proposal. Both President Coolidge and Mr. Kel- logg know that the Briand plan is a “smoke screen.” Both know why he has advanced it at this particular time and both know what he expects to gain by it. Neither expects any defi- nite result from the plan beyond erous- ing the American internationalists to new heights of League of Nations al- truism which will bring the usual flood of appeals and suggestions from the volunteers. But neitber the Presi- dent nor his Secretary of State are in @ position to frustrate brusquely the Briand campaign. From the standpoint of diplomacy, it would not do for the United States government to question officially the motives or belittle the importance of the Briand move. It would never do for Secretary Kellogg to inform Briand that the United States.did not care to examine “with the greatest interest” his “noble and exalted effort” to out- law war as between the United States and France. Thus, when Briand hands his plan to Ambassador Herrick, the only statement which either Mr. Cool- idge or Mr. Kellogg could make offi- cially would be that they will be most happy to receive and examine it. Not Taken Seriously. The President, in informal conversa- tion with senators, may inform them that he sees through the Briand “smoke screen,” and would have no faith in any French suggestion for another treaty until France honors her obli- gations-by agreeing to fund her debt to the American taxpayers. There are current reports that Mr. Coolidge has already done this, and members of the Senate foreign relations committee are understood to be able tu recall the pre- cise language used by Mr. Coolidge. These sénators simply smile when the security pact is mentioned and refuse to be interested. Even Senator Borah, chairman of the foreign relations com- mittee and long an earnest advocate of international plans to outlaw war, does not take the Briand proposal seriously. Mr. Kellogg, in his official capacity, explains in response to questions by the newspaper correspondents that he has been advised by Ambassador Her- rick that a written French plan has been submitted and he declines to dis- cuss the details, but indicates, of course, that he will examine and discuss the proposition. In response to the flat question of whether the State Depart- ment will consider French plans to ne- gotiate such a pact, Mr. Kellogg natu- rally says that the department will be glad to consider the plan. At first blush, this would appear to place Mr. Kellogg in a position of tak- ing a diametrically opposite view from the view understood to have been ex- pressed to Senators by President Cool- idge. But, as a matter of fact, Mr. Kellogg is understood to regard the Briand proposal in precisely the same light as the President regards it. He knows the import of the whole pro- ceedings, it is suggested, but must play his cards according to the rules of dip- lomatic procedure. Bryan Pacts Recalled. When the plan actually comes before him, it will be possible for Mr. Kellogg to find many ways to puncture the bub- ble and remove the plan from further serious consideration. The method which first suggests itself is to call Briand’s attention to the Bryan peace pact, negotiated between the United States and France in 1914, which pact Outlaws war as effectively as American interests will permit unless the United States wishes to enter into an alliance ~with France or a European power. Of- ficlals of the State Department receniy called attention to this Bryan pact in discussing the Briand matter with the ' press and added that nothing would pe 2 ee Oe MMC eSsLs 7 — Vacation Specials _ For the Ladies 22-inch Suitcase ne hy? ae round edge, s lined, $15 HAT BOX TO MATCH, $13.50 Combination the AMERICA REFUSES TO REOPEN — ue E> ae Ae a eee * ‘ oo en ne ee eee ee ACCORD ON RATIO OF NAVIES CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. sider to what extent the principles adopted at. Waghington can be carried fyrther either regarding the ratio in different classes of ships between vari- ous powers, or in any other important ways.” The British spokesman made it clear that the British idea is that each power represented at the present con- ference should justify to one another whatever requests are made for ton- nage in the various classes of warships. He doubted exceedingly whether the United States could prove America’s mecessity for having as many cruisers as Great Britain, as, for instance, to protect trade routes. because it was generally recognized that a large part of American trade was transported on British ships. Same Said to Apply to Japan. The same thing could be said for Japan, despite the fact that the Japa- nese have sometimes to voyage afar to transport merchandise and acquire raw material. In the meantime difficulties, which may still not be insuperable, have arisen over fixation of the proportion of auxiliary war craft for Japan and the United States. There are reliable; indications that Tokyo is insisting upon Japan having 70 per cent to America’s 100, which, transformed into cold ratio figures, would mean 5 for the United States and 3.5 for Japan. Information from British sources is that the British statesmen would not object to according their former ally in the Far East somewhat better treatment for auxiliary warships than expressed by the 5-5-3 ratio fixed at Washington for battleships and aircraft carrier. There is apparently a tendency in American circles to argue that the ab- sence of American fortifications in Far Eastern waters, one of the results of the Washington agreement, really makes the Japanese ratio of 3 considerably better than that figure when one talks in terms of effective naval action. Statement by Japanese. The Japanese issued a statement today that ships under 700 tons, which include submarines—and these they want to be able to construct without any re- striction whatsoever—are too limited in seaworthiness and radius to be used as modern weapons of war for anything ‘more than coastal defense. Concerning aircraft carriers under 10,000 tons, which they also want excluded, the Japanese insist that such craft would be merely utilized for experiments or training purposes. “Moreover,” continues the statement, “their effectiveness on the high seas is still unknown, and accordingly they should not be subjected to limitations like cruisers and other surface craft, which pose as definite fighting effec- tives.” Mr. Gibson, who was accompanied by Allen W. Dulles, jmridical expert fog the American delegation, emerging from the meeting with Lord Cecil, told newspaper men, however, that there was no reason for being less optimistic about the outcome of the conference. All Eager for Agreement. He said that the peoples of the United States, Great Britain and Japan were all anxious to find an agreement and were convinced that only patience and good will among the delegates were needed finally to work out a common} basis for an accord. “It is natural to encounter discouragement in the solution of jndividual problems,” he said, “but without this exist.ug, there’ would have been no need to call the conference.” Questioned by an English correspon- dent as to why Washington permitted convocation of the conference and proclamation of divergencies in public without having negotiated with Lon- don and Tokyo confidentially in advance in an endeavor to work out some sort of an agreement beforehand, Mr. Gib- son answered that such a proceedure would have provoked a general outcry because it would indicate that the United States was not proceeding open- ly for the discussion of the various problems involved. Mr. Gibson emphasized that he and Viscount Cecil had examined the Brit- ish and American proposals in an at- tempt to understand their mutual po- sitions, and added that nothing had oc- curred thus far which would justify less hopefulness in achieving a final agreement. Tokyo Expects Compromise. Tokyo, June 23 (By A. P.).—While there has been a firm stand here against application of the 5-5-3 ratio to cruis- ers, destroyers and . submarines, the opinion appears to be gaining ground that a compromise satisfactory to all concerned will be reached between the proposals of the three powers at the naval limitation conference now in progress at Geneva. Although not entirely agreeing with the British proposals, the newspaper Mainichi Shimbun regards them as “quite admirable in their statesman- like breadth.” “By proposing a reduction in the size of guns and warships, as well as in- creasing the age limit of capital ships,” it declares, “Great Britain may be said to have gone deep to the root of the disarmament question.” be gained by a new security pact along the lines suggestde. Mr. Kellogg was necessarily absent from the city on that day and de- clined to comment on the information given out. But yesterday, Secretary Kellogg himself called attention to re- ports that the Bryan treaties may have lapsed because the membership on the commissions of conciliation was not complete. There was no justification for these reports, the Secretary ex- plained, adding that arrangements are now under way to fill up the member- ship on the commissions. It is suggested in some quarters that President Coolidge and Secretary Kel- logg might shrewdly turn the Briand proposal to their advantage by remind- ing the French government that no treaty between France and the United States can ever be submitted to the United States Senate for ratification until France agrees to fund her debt to America. But it is pointed out that even if France agreed to ratify the Mellon-Berenger debt agreement as a quid pro quo, the United States could not afford to enter into an alliance, which would necessarily be of a military character to have any value at all. Military in Character. The flat agreement not to go to war at all for a designated period would be a military alliance iy the truest sense of the word for France because the French could shape their future plans With absolute assurance that America's power would at least be neutralized no matter what events transpired in the future. In the event of a war be- tween European powers, France could, if military necessity required, sink American merchantmen, confiscate American property and take whatever steps might be deemed essential to her national existence and America would be powerless to do more than expect payment for damage done, which pay- ments in view of the present status of the French debt to America would not be regarded as having any substantial guarantee. And other Europaan powers which did not have an alliance with the United States would natu- rally be at a distinct military disad- vantage compared to France. Briand, it was noted, was not inter- ested in the drafts of general pacts to outlaw war and drawn up by the American college professors.* An exclu- sive Franco-American pact, or dis- guised military alliance, would admit- tedly be of far greater value to Briand than any general pact. Secretary Kel- logg will consider making the Briand Suggestions public after Ambassador Herrick reaches Washington in ten days or so. REASONABLE REFORM VOTED BY THE PEERS Opposition to Changes Upper Houses, However, Increases Rapidly. London, Jume 23 (By A. P.).—The three days’ debate in the House of Lords, duritig which the upper chamber of the British Parliament held the spot- light in public attention as it has not for many years, ended tonight with the peers voting, 208 to 54, in favor of a “reasonable measure” of reform. Opposition to the government’s plan is developing rapidly, however, on the ground that the Conservative govern- ment is attempting to entrench itself in power. The Marquis of Reading, the last speakeft in the debate, declared that the Baldwin government had’ no man- date to carry out any such reform as was proposed. | The Laborites intend to move a vote of censure tn the House of’ Commons against the government’s lords meas- ures, 80 as tO get a day in the com- mons to discuss the proposals. Wisconsin Senators Ask Louden to Speak Madison, June 23 (By A. P.).—A reso- lution inviting Frank O. Lowden, for- mer Governor of Illifiois, to speak be- »fore the Wisconsin Legislature on farm relief was adopted by the State senate today. The favorable action came after two previous attempts had failed. Senators opposing the resolution contended that such an invitation would be interpret- ed as a “political move” in view of. in ecient re, ated 0] Watertown, that Mr. Lowden was an Laborite Suspended By Vote of Commons London, June 23 (By A. P.).—James Maxton, Laborite member for Bridge- ton, was suspended from the house: of commons for five days today for calling Attorney General Hogg a “political Dlackguard and liar.” Maxton, who was imprisoned in 1916 for his speeches on the Glasgow Green, made his remarks in a debate on the third reading of the government’s bill to curb the powers of trade unions. He declared that the attorney general, in sponsoring the measure, had degraded his high parliamentary ability ‘‘on be- half of a body of righ men to deny to the working people the barest exist- eénce--that is political blackguardism and political treachery.” He then followed this with: “The right honorable gentleman is a politi- cal blackguard and liar.” Winston Churchill, chancellor of the exchequer, moved Maxton’s suspension, which was voted 146 to 73. DEATH OF GIRL, 21,~ ~ TS LAID TO MOTHER Stepfather Also to Be Ac- cused; Youth Ended Life When Called to Testify. Rogers City, Mich., June 23 (By A. P.).—Mrs. Richard Arnott was arrested today on a charge of murder in con- nection with the slaying near here, May 31, of her daughter, Miss Florence Riyoux, 21. Arnott, stepfather of the girl, is serv- ing a jail sentence for carrying con- cealed weapons, a charge brought as a result of the investigation of the girl’s death. Officers tonight asserted a mur- der charge will be lodged against him also in connection with the slaying. Miss Riyoux was beaten to death on a road near here and her body found by four school boys. An iron bar believed to have been used by the slayer, was found a mile from the spot where the body was discovered. A coroner’s jury returned an open verdict. While evi- dence was being heard Floyd, Wandell, a friend of the slain girl, who had been called to testify, committed suicide. . Mrs. Arnott, in testifying at the in- quest, declared her husband had warned her to be careful of what she said at the hearing and also declared he had threatened her life.

Then he was driven the 15 miles over the winding mountain roads up to the highest peak on the road and back into the valley again. He praised the lofty crags that stand up like cathedral spires and are known as the Needles, The cool mountain air seemed to do him good. Both Mr. Coolidge and Mr. Tilson re- turned to the lodge about 10 minutes before he arrived. Although he, had planned to leave this afternoon, he was prevailed to remain over and rest. Gen. Wood and his party plan now to leave tomorrow night for New York in the two special cars that have been pro- vided for them. Definite indications that forces are working and making progress toward a sort of compromise farm relief bill with a view of taking this subject out of the 1928 campaign, were left today in the wake of the visit of Representative Tilson with President Coolidge. Mr. Tilson, going into town today with the President, talked with newspaper men at the schoolhouse. Hopes for Legislation. Speaking cautiously he expressed the hope that some legislation satisfactory to both sides could be worked out and indicated his optimism that it would be. Representative Winters, of Wyom- ing, whose guest Mr. Tilson has been and who also stayed overnight at the lodge, said there were definite signs of approaching harmony between the Op- posing forces in his State. Mr. Win- ters, who supported the McNary-Haugen bill at the last session, speaking in the presence of Mr. Tilson and with the latter nodding assent, said he expected a revised version of the Curtis-Crisp bill might be worked out. “here is a feeling in his State, Mr. Winters said, that something on this order should be accepted as an advance in the right direction, even if it does not exactly fit the bill. Wyoming, of course, has not been in the same bel- ligerent mood as some of the other of these Western States. Deprecates McNary Bill. Mr. Tilson made it plain that the Mc- Nary-Haugen bill would have no more chance at the next session than it did at the last one. “It is obviously apparent that if it is passed again in the same form the President again will veto it. There has been absolutely no indication that he has changed his mind in this regard.” That the question of an extra ses- sion is still up in the air was indicated when Mr. Tilson said he was yet to be convinced of the necessity of it, and it was apparent that it is his opinion at this time that there will not be one.} Inasmuch as he had visited with the President overnight, it would seem that the President still is undecided on this matter. An extra session is liable to do more harm than good, in the majority lead- er’s opinion. While a start should cer- tainly be made at the regular session dealing with the Mississippi River ftood problem, he said, the job is such a gi- gantic one that he considers it is ex- pecting too much that the next session will be able to complete it, and a few weeks of extra session will not ma- terially help matters. Reclamation and waterpower projects in several parts of the country, some of which have been before Congress for years, are tied up with the subject of flood control, he pointed out. He gave as an instance a reclamation project in Mr. Winters’ State. The fact that it is operating relieved the Mississippi River of just sO much water, he pointed out. Urges Boulder Dam Passage. Mr. Tilson left the impression that he considers the solution of the flood problem lies in making use of and tak- ing care of the water in the northern watersheds. The Missouri River draws on the watersheds out here and then empties into the Mississippi. He made known that he is in favor of iegislation on Boulder Dam at the coming session, though he is not in favor of the construction of a dam of the size contemplated in the bill at the last session. He favors a dam much smaller in size, he said. The majority leader added to what hs has already said on the subject of taxes, that he does not think the time is ripe for any reduction in surplus levies. Tax reduction must be approached very cautiously at the next session, he said, but he sees no reason why there should not be a reduction to 12 per cent in corporation levies and a further slicing away of nuisance levies. The soundness of the Mellon bill has been amply demonstrated, in his opin- ion. It has done just what it was planned to do, bring in more revenues by a skilful reduction. He doubted that there will be any relief for income tax- payers with incomes below $50,000. Re- lief to the corporations will benefit everybody all along the line, he said. Explaining that he had not been back in this country long enough to note any signs of a business slump, if there are any, the majority leader nev- ertheless gave the impression that the administration considers the peak of prosperity has been reached and must be oh a careful guard from now on against a retrogression. Would Keep Out Tariff. Tariff revision will be kept out of the next session, he said. He believes, how- ever, there should be an upward re- vision of textile rates. Flexible provi- sions of the present law are not suf- ficiently broad to take care of the textile situation in his opinion, but nevertheless he believes it will be best yah “a | Will Rogers Terms Anesthetizing Fish Next Step in West Special to The Washington Post.

Prob- ably the Republican party will have this as one of its 1928 promises, In addition to Mr. Tilson’s visit to the Philippines he visited China on his recent trip. He found nothing in the unsettled Republic which would warrant this Government in either tak- ing a hand or approaching any faction on the subject or recognition, he said. As yet there are no signs of a govern- ment that this country might deal with. Yet this country, in his opinion, should exercise patience and confine its in- terest to the protection of its nationals and their property. In Peking he saw at police headquarters the seditious propaganda which was seized at the Bolshevist headquarters, he said, Mr, Tilson left late today for the East. where he plans, he said, to take a much needed rest.

GOOD-WILL PILGRIMAGE INTERESTS ALL RANKS Marshals and Poilus Alike Will Give American Veterans Hearty Welcome. Veterans of France, from marshals to poilus, eagérly await the coming of their brothers in arms from the sister republic, Gen. John J. Pershing, A. E. FP. leader, said yesterday, discusisng the Paris convention of the American Legion. “I feel that the time is very propitious for this visit of the legion,” said the war chief of America’s forces, Just re- turned from a visit abroad. “And the attitude of the French people has changed materially since last August, when I was there before. Deep down there is a basis for kindly feeling, which only needs an opportunity to bring it to the surface.” Gen. Pershing went to Europe some months ago in the interests of the American Battle’ Monuments Commis- sion, of which he is chairman, and while he had ample opportunity to ob- serve this growth of enthusiasm of the French for the return of the American soldiers, declined to discuss the coming pilgrimage of the veterans while in France. To Cement Comradeship. Speaking for the first time on the convention yesterday, he said: “The legionnaires are prompted -by a sincere desire not only to return and see the places where they did their greatest work for humanity, but also to bind ties of comradehip that existed between themselves and French veterans. “After thinking it.all over and con- sidering the motives, it seems to me it is the greatest pilgrimage for good will ever undertaken and will without ques- tion demonstrate that the basic feeling between the two peoples is the kindest. The French veterans from marshals down to poilus are looking forward with interest and enthusiasm to this re- union and they sincerely hope there will be as many come as. was first cal- culated on. “Without any hesitation, I can say that the reception to be accorded the legion will be most cordial, and it will understand fully the sentiments of the French.” Petain Heads Committee. Announcing that Marshal Petain would head the reception Committee at the historic forts of Verdun and that the military governor of Paris is or- ganizing French veterans and Ameri- cans in Paris to arrange reception de- tails there, Gen. Pershing emphasized the serious character of the sacred pilgrimage. “As I look on the visit of the legion,” he explained, “it is in no sense a lark, but prompted by motives to reestablish the intimate friendly relations that ex- isted during the war and which, to my mind, should become a permanent heritage that we of this generation should pass on.” Asked whether the _ transatlantic flight of Col. Charles A. Lindbergh had increased the friendly feelings of the French, the general said while his feat in itself was a wonderful thing and ap- pealed tremendously to the French nevertheless their friendly attitude toward the legion is a thing entirely apart and does not hinge on Lind- bergh’s accomplishment. Admitting it had gone a long way toward promoting friendly feelings, he declared the jour- ney of the legion was regarded by the veterans of France as a great. pilgrim- age of good will and their attitude ex- pressed that of the country.

EACH IS STRUCK TWICE Chicago, June 23 (By A. P.).—Dark- ness mantled a triple slaying early to- day in a North Side alley, with no wit- nesses left to tell what happened except @ mystery girl, who fied in horror be- fore the roar of the last revolver shot had died away. Two policemen shot it out with an automobile thief, and the three were killed. The deadly accuracy of their aim was shown by the fact that all but one of the seven shots fired found its mark. The single wild shot was fired by the robber. The policemen dead are Sergt. Thomas Kehoe, 52 years old, and Of- ficer James Farley, 32. The man they killed was identified as Dan Leathers, sent to the Pontiac Reformatory in 1922, on a robbery charge. The bodies of the policemen were found on a lawn in front of 4939 North Rockwell street. Kehoe was dead with a bullet over the temple and another in his back. Farley had been shot in the stomach and chest, but was living and conscious when police reserves ar- rived. “There was—a woman—in the—car— with him,” Farley gasped. “She—ran.” It was first believed that the slayer of Kehoe and Farley had escaped. At the hospital, however, before he died, Farley said he was sure he had wound- ed the man. “I had to shoot, and I’m sure 1 got him,” he said. Police returned to the place and found the robber’s body. He had been shot in the heart and the abdomen. The end of his trigger finger had been shot away, probably by the bullet that entered his abdomen. The slain police officers started their last quest of a criminal shortly after midnight, when a report was made that a masked man had held up Mr. and Mrs. E. 8S. Cooper and taken their auto- mobile and $5 which Cooper had. They came upon the stolen car and the robber near the place where their bodies were found. What happened thereafter is known only to the girl who, Farley safa, was in the automobile with the man. GAMBLING CRUSADE SPLITS DRY GROUP CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. from a Pennsylvania postoffice which revealed the location of several large stills. It was signed and a return ad- dress given. The association, however, does not require this. Anonymous com- munications are given prompt atten- tion. A bitter denunciation of the organi- zation was made by a number of prom- inent Washington “wets” in communi- cations made public by the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment. John Philip Hill, Washington attorney and former member of Congress from Maryland, said: “This form of proce- dure, if adopted throughout the United States would cause the repeal of the whole Volstead law on the first day of the next session of Congress.” Maj. Gen. George Barnett, former com- mander of the Marine Corps, said that the use of spies to enforce discipline in the military service would work ut- ter ruin to the morale of troops. “I do not think the service is different from the public in this respect,” he said. A letter from Walter D. Wilcox, local clubman and author, was also quoted by the Association Against the Prohibi- tion Amendment.. G. C. Hinckley, na- tional secretary of this organization, said of the citizens’ group, “They are out to ‘snoop,’ regardless of what they may say they are doing. That’s all to camouflage their dctivities.” Dr. Ellison said that the membership list of the citizens’. association is mounting steadily. He believes that the 10,000 members desired will be listed within six or eight weeks. Dr. Ellison is a practicing physician, with Offices in the same building as the Citizens Service Association, 1720 M street northwest. LILLIAN GISH NAMED ~ IN $5,000,000 SUIT Duell Says She and Theater Companies Conspired to Ruin Him. Special to The Washington Post. Los Angeles, Calif., June 23.—Charles H. Duell, New York film producer, who formerly, his legal papers say, was both employer and fiance of Lillian Gish, this afternoon filed a $5,000,000 suit against the wistful actress and others in Superior Court here. Miss Gish, he says, jilted him and now is getting $5,000 a week for acting roles for some- body else. Duell charges that Lillian Gish, the Metro-Goldwyn Picture Corporation, Metro - Goldwyn - Mayer, Loew’s, Inc., Nick Schenk, Louis B. Mayor and At- torneys Louis Levy and J. Robert Ru- bin, of New York, conspired to deprive him of Miss Gish’s screen services and to ruin him financially and profes- Sionally. The result of this, his com- plaint sets forth, was to do him $3,- 000,000 actual damages. In addition he asks $2,000,000 punitive damages. Duell accompanied his legal papers with the following: “My complaint speaks for itself of three years of corruption and hypocrisy on every hand. An expose of conse- quences as far-reaching as the film industry has ever faced, will be the outcome. It will shock the country and ern every self-respecting home in the an Railroad Men Hear Criticism of Senate Representative John G.

P.).— False teeth, which lodged in his throat as he fell here, caused the death of ALL FILM SALARIES CUT: ACTER LIKELY TO FIGHT 16 Companies Agree to Slash Following Conference With Will Hays. STARS MAY FILE SUITS Special to The Washington Post. Hollywood, Calif., June 23.—Sixteen motion picture producing corporations, which between them embrace practically every “famous name” in the movie busi- ness, today banded to slice the salaries of “stars, directors, actors, writers and other artists,” and likewise agreed to cut the salaries of “executives, depart- mental heads and producers them- selves.” ’ A ‘statement by Fred Beetson, in charge of Hollywood headquarters of the Association of Motion Picture Producers, made the decision official and binding on the industry. The de- cision to shrink the pay roll of “artists” was reached when President Will Hays and the producers conferred here dur- ing Hays’ recent Western trip. According to Beetson, the producers expect a protest from the actors, but they™feel themselves in control of the situation. Beetson says that retrench- ment in salaries as well as other production economies are considered vital to prevent the standard of Ameri- can films from falling. Beetson said that he has not seen Frank Gilmore, president of the Actors Equity Association, who is in Holly- wood, and that Gilmore has not made known any grounds of protest from contract actors unwilling to accept “voluntary reductions” in salaries. Suits charging the producers with conspiracy to prevent actors from get- ting salaries as per contract, and other suits charging inequitable secret un- derstandings to prevent actors from geting future contracts, are expected as a result of today’s move. Many actors complained they have been told that “if old, experienced actors won't take the cut, there are plenty of young ones to step into their places.” Part of the producers’ pressure, it is said, is to refuse to assign roles to con- tract stars who won’t accept lower sal- aries, even though the producers con- tinue to pay salaries, as stipulated, for the life of the contract. The companies signing today’s wage- cutting proclamation are: Christie Comedies, De Mille Pictures Corpora- tion, F. B. O., First National, Fox, Goldwyn, Inc.; Harold Lloyd Corpora- tion, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Metropoli- tan Pictures Corporation, Paramount- Famous-Lasky, Hal Roach, Mack Sen- nett, United Artists, Universal, Warner Bro.’s, and Jack White Comedies. USED THIRD DEGREE, DRY OFFICER ADMITS Maj. Heise Is Accused of Beating, Tying and Kicking Prisoner Six Hours. New York, June 23 (By A. P.).—Fol- lowing testimony today by Albert Briggs, an East Indian, that he had been bound, beaten, kicked and cursed for six hours at prohibition headquar- ters here last December, Assistant Pro- hibition Administrator Maj. August Heise admitted in Federal court today that he had used “third degree” methods on Briggs to obtain a confes- sion that would implicate prohibition agents. Briggs is on trial with four former prohibition agents on charges of bri- bery and violating the Volstead act. Maj. Heise testified he had ordered his men to tie Briggs’ arms and legs and then to tie a towel tightly around his head. The only caution he had given his men, he said, was that neither the towet nor the ropes should be tied so tightly that they stop circulation. Referring to the towel about Briggs’ head, Maj. Heise said: “I told him that if he did not tell the truth I would twist it.” Klan Chief Is Sued Over Tuxedo Bill L. A. Mueller, chief of staff for Mary- land and the District, Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, has been named de- fendant in a suit filed in Municipal Court by Bowie & Taylor for payment of a tuxedo suit purchased on March 18, this year, in the amount of $40. In the bill filed for the plaintiffs through John D. Sadler, attorney, it is set forth “that demand for payment has been duly made upon the party by the clothing firm, but although re- quested to do so, the defendant has wholly failed and neglected to pay the account or any part thereof.” Coe % New Homes IN AN Old Grove | Evergreens, Shade and Fruit ‘Trees | EXHIBIT HOUSE 3345 Tennyson Street | OPEN DAILY TO 9 P.

An hour after the storm broke the stars began again te appear. By this time most of the water had soaked into the ground and the field was said to be in good condition. Cars were parked in solid rows out- side the police lines and most of the crowd were in them for some cramped sleep. The great field was in darkness except for the twinkle of hindreds of parking lights and the blaze from the hangar, where the lights came back after being interrupted by the storm. Mail Sacks Arrive. The first official air mail from New York to Paris was delivered to Com- mander Byrd tonight, who has been especially sworn in as an air mail pilot, preparatory for the hop-off planned for early morning. The mail consisted of 200 letters and | seven small packages. Among them was a letter from Postmaster General Harry S. New to Maurice Kokanowski, French minister of commerce, and letters from Mayor Walker of New York to the presidents of France and Germany, the Lord Mayor of London, and the presi- dent of the Municipal council of Paris. Other letters were from the French Embassy in Washington to Foreign Minister Aristide Briand of France, fromm the Italian Ambassador to Mussolini, as well as official letters from the French, British, Spanish and Belgian consul generals and the Polish Legation to their governments. A letter from Car- dinal Hayes of New York, was addressed to Cardinal Du Bois of Paris. Newspapers and press associations took the opportunity to communicate with the editors of European papers and with their foreign bureaus and cor- respondents. The mail included a let- ter from the Associated Press to Smith Reavis, of its Paris bureau. The letters also represented the busi- ness Of railroads, steamship lines, bank- ing and industrial concerns. A personal letter from James H.

Trying to Rule or Ruin, He Says; Defends Woman Bible Class Head. MEETINGS TO CONTINUE Special to The Washington Post. New York, June 23.—Referring to himself as “the engineer of this gospel train here at Calvary Baptist Church,” the Rev. John Roach Straton today turned on the five deacons who re- signed last night because of supposed- ly hysterical Bible class re at the church. Dr. Straton characterized his oppo- nents as “a little handful of people who have adopted a rule-or-ruin pol- icy, regardless of the will of the ma- jority.” In an eleven-page statement he denied the charges of sensational religion — called “Pentecostalism”—and defended Miss Lillian Rice, the Mount Sinai Hospital nurse who conducts the Monday night Bible class. As for Miss Rice, she answered noth- ing more to the questions of reporters than “Praise the Lord!” Dr. S. 8. Goldwater, director of the hospital, said: “Miss Rice is a very skiliful anesthetist, who has been em- ployed by the hospital for a number of years. I have the highest respect for her professional ability.” He declined to comment on her con- nection with Dr. Straton’s church. “Gross caricatures” and “flimsy fal- sifications” is the way Dr. Straton dis- posed of the charges of his opponents that women rolled on the floor and tore their clothes in emotional frenzy at Bible class meetings. He admitted there “had been two instances that were capable of misunderstanding” at the meetings, but he said that there had been many more instances of “marvelous healing.” It was said at the church that Miss Rice’s classes, which are attended calefly by young folk, will continue. Forgotten Pamphlet Brings About School Blackey, Ky., June 23 (By A. P.).— A pamphlet accidentally left on a train has resulted in the founding of the Stuart Robinson School here attended by 500 mountain boys and girls. Dr. O. Guerrant dropped an article on the need for such a school, while traveling. Mrs. C. S. Haney, of Florida, found the paper and as a re- sult donated $800 to a fund to bufid the school. The school is under the supervision of the Southern Presbyterian Church. Many of its pupils walk from 2 to 10 miles a day to attend.

Four vair experts with scientific attainments equip- ped with apparatus for various kinds of scien- tific work, are engaged upon the first attempt to acquire the information that is prerequisite to air communication between the two hemi- evheres. In cool courage and demands upon human resource and endurance the flight rivals fnat of Lindbergh and Chamberlin, while in substantial promotion of oceanic aviation it promises to bring still greater results. The preparations for this flight have been the object of close study for nearly ten years, during which time Rodman Wanamaker, the financial supporter of the enterprise, has ex- eended large sums. Many disappointments have delayed the plans, but persistence has conquered all obstacles. Commander Byrd will not only seek out the most practicable afr route between New York and Paris, but will etplore the air at various levels in search of favorable currents. It is possible that ex- treme altitudes will be tried out, as it is sur- mised that a continuous wind blows to the eastward which would greatly facilitate flights to Europe. Possibly at other levels steady air currents in the opposite direction may be found. The three motors of the America and its wide cruising radius will enable the ex- plorers to diverge from the direct route. Their object will not be to make speed, but to ac- quire knowledge of sky and weather condi- tions. Radio apparatus will keep the explorers in communication with the world, and Lieut. George O. Noville, in charge of the radio, will write a series of special articles for The Wash- ington Post covering the experiences of the fliers. * M’'GRAW'S New York, with its evident and extrem? fondness for celebrations, has set apart July 19 to mark the silver jubilee of John J. Mc- Graw, for the past 25 years manager of the New York Giants. Preliminary plans call for the participation of _.Mayor Walker, Gov. Smith and a number of other notables—all the concomitants of a typical New York party, in fact, except a few miles of ticker tape. An incident such as this goes only to mark the progress that baseball has made. When McGraw came to the Giants, and he was not new to the sport then, he was “‘Muggsy.’’ In the quarter of a century that has elapsed since, he and the game have grown in stature and dignity. McGraw is no longer “Muggsy,” but a solid, respectable and wealthy citizen. Base- ball has passed through its rough-and-ready days, and has become an institution. At the time McGraw was a “rookie,’’ the standing of ball players was such that there were few upon whom they could look ‘down. He lives to see them idolized by the Nation, and welcomed as friends by rich and poor alike. McGraw did his part to make this transformation possible. The contemplated celebration is a tribute to the advancement of baseball as well as a great compliment to the man, JUBILEE, DISTRICT TAX RATE. Almost simultaneously with.the protest of trade bodies against the setting of a tax rate for the ensuing fiscal year in excess of $1.65, the Citizens Advisory Council submitted its final report on the estimates for the 1928-29 budget to the Commissioners calling for a tax rate of between $1.70 and $1.80. The council urges a budget of approximately $41,750,000, and while it admits that the $1.65 rate ad- vocated by the trade bodies would. raise the sum recommended, it says that the supple- mental appropriations inevitably would in- crease the figure. The current tax rate is $1.80 per $100 assessed valuation. Recently the valuation figure has been arbitrarily increased, so that a rate of $1.55 at the new valuation would provide as much revenue as the present rate of $1.80. Trade bodies feel that some addi- tional needed improvements should be pro- ‘vided, and for this reason recommend the $1.65 rate, which they say is “as much as Washington can stand.” In view of the higher valuation, this probably is true, The fly in the tax ointment is the position of _ the Federal Government. Congress realizes’ _. “that it miust assume a-share of the expenses - of the National Capital. _ penses were shared on a 50-50 basis, which ’ gubsequently was cut to 60-40, the District For many years ex- assuming the larger share of the burden. Later a Congress appropriated a lump sum of $9,000,- a 000 as its share at that time. Since then the . aevre has never been raised. Had Congress - assumed its full proportion of the burden for 4 H the coming fiscal year, it would havé needed to _ appropriate approximately $14,000,000. #é ee Riot. only is there injustice in ‘excessive | m k rates, but grave danger to municipal ad- cemen Pat well. Washington has no desire.} b € 2 It chaste not care beri citic ack ti pective residents frightened away by the bugbear of high tax rates. It is ready to pay full taxes for strictly municipal purposes. The immediate need is the establishment by the Commissioners of a tax raté no higher than is absolutely necessary. No less im- portanf is .a clear understanding with Con- gress as to what part of District expenses it is willing to share in the future. There is no reason whatsoever why local taxpayers should shoulder a burden which rightfully belongs to the country as a whole. The fight to do away with the inequitable and inade- quate $9,000,000 lump sum must be fought to a finish. POLITICS AND FLOOD CONTROL. The distinction between politics and na- tional safety, with which the coming Congress will be much concerned, is already being drawn. Tax reduction should be the first business of Congress, according to Representa- tive John Q. Tilson, majority floor leader, who, by inference, shoves flood control entirely out of the picture and envisions nothing more than relief measures at the next session for the area devastated by the Mississippi. While it will be much easier for the politi- cians in Congress to grasp the desirability of tax reduction, there are certain facts vital to a large section of the United States that must not be forgotten. The Mississippi Valley has not yet fully recovered from the most serious disaster in its history. The protecting works it took years to construct have either been swept away or weakened in many places. An- ticipating definite and complete action by Congress in the near future, whatever repairs that may be made now will be of a temporary nature, for mature deliberation may follow an entirely different principle than the exist- ing one. At the very earliest, work can not be begun upon any plan of flood control which Congress may adopt until another season of danger has come and passed. If, as Representative Tilson seems to suggest, Congress delays ac- tion until another year, the spring freshets of two years will have had an opportunity to at- tack the weakened levees, causing, in the event of another period of high water, a catas- trophe from which the land and the people may not be able to rally. In view of this situ- ation the necessity of early action upon flood control can not be minimized. There is, however, double jeopardy in sub- ordinating flood control to tax reduction. Al- though as yet not even a rough estimate has been made of the amount of money which will be required to make the river territory a safe place in which to live, there can be no doubt that the complete project will require an out- lay of hundreds of millions. Why talk of tax reduction when it is apparent that over the period of the next few years there will be extraordinary expenses equal to or exceeding the sum which it is now proposed to cut off the national revenue? There can be no wis- dom in reducing taxes for political purposes in 1927 only to put them back in succeeding years to pay the cost of flood control. There is work being done now; although slowly, on a plan for flood control. What Congress should demand is that the findings of the experts be submitted at the earliest pos- sible moment. When the question of how the Mississippi and its tributaries may be best controlled has been disposed of, and the cost of the necessary work been determined, it will be time for Congress to take stock of the Nation’s revenue and see whether taxes may then be reduced. The politicians who hope to make capital out of tax reduction have no right to endanger the lives of Mississippi Valley people by de- laying flood-control appropriations. HOLUY WOOD WOODPECKERS, Some time ago Gen, Lord, Director of the Budget, organized among Government em- ployes the ‘‘Woodpeckers Club.’’ There are no dues or difficult membership requirements. All one has to do to join is to be a Government employe and promise to peck away unceas- ingly at waste. The idea was not received with as great solemnity as Gen. Lord may have wished. Newspapers poked fun at the organization. Individuals smiled inwardly at the idea of Federal employes pecking away at waste. The plan, however, must have merit, for it has come to roost 3,000 miles away. The movie industry has been brought to realize the perils of prosperity. Its expenses mounted sky-high until, according to’ those who claim to be on the inside, there seemed to be danger that the quarters and half-dolla rs pulled into the box offices would not be suffi- cient to pay salaries, buy glycerin for tears, and meet the other unusual expenses to which the producers of movies are put. Jesse Lasky, vice president of the Paramount-Famous Players-Lasky Corporation, called attention to the emergency recently by announcing that rigid economy throughout the industry was vitally necessary. Immediately thereafter, ac- cording to reports, Paramount executives, whose annual salaries run well into six figures, voluntarily accepted 25 per cent reductions in their pay checks. Now comes an announce- ment from Los Angeles that all salaries above $50 in the organization have been cut 10 per cent, and it is said that other producers are about to take similar steps. Thus has come into being the Hollywood Woodpeckers Club. Think of Gloria Swanson. Doug. Fairbanks, Harold Lloyd, Tom Mix and Norma Talmadge pecking away in penury! CONTROL OF TRAFFIC, .William P. Eno, an internationally known traffic authority, took occasion, upon his re- cent return from abroad, to criticize American attempts to control traffic. .The worst impedi- ment to the scientific management of traffic at present, he said, is the attempt to regulate it by a synchronized or progressive system of lights instead.of by hand. Because of the wide variety of conditions obtaining at various intersections, what js good at one point fre- quently is highly inappropriate at another. He holds that the trained policeman standing at the corner with his. hand rdised is, after all, the best regulator of traffic. | Mr. Eno undoubtedly refers,to traffic control within congested areas, In view of the fact that it is proposed ultimately to extend the. local signal light system into downtown streets, his ep iticiata. should interest the traffic depart- | th street. conditions -have been measural a pach thyrwnae the lights have the Sixteenth street lights are unsatisfactory. Few who utilize this thoroughfare have not had the experience of being halted before a red light with no other machine in sight. Fre- quently many machines in a line are brought to a halt, with no cross street traffic awaiting the right of way. Bad regulation of this sort would not occur with manually controlled lights, but in a street as long as Sixteenth, which would call for too many traffic police- men if every intersection were guarded, the public is willing to put up with minor incon- veniences in order to obtain the benefits of regulation. In congested areas automatic lights would create an intolerable situation. Although at times they would promote an even flow of traffic, recurring jams and tie-ups would be inevitable. The system existing at Fifteenth street and New York avenue, which functions automatically as long as traffic flows evenly, but which is manually controlled whenever congestion seems imminent, takes this into consideration. This is the system which should be extended throughout the congested area— automatic lights, equipped with cut-out con- trols at each intersection, with a trained traffic policeman stationed at each control to take charge of the installation whenever occasion arises. SAN FRANCISCO'S BRIDGE, A delegation of engineers and officials from San Francisco, bearing with them the unani- mous indorsement of governmental, commer- cial and residential northern California, has been in Washington for several days past seek- ing a permit from the War Bepartment to bridge San Francisco Bay. It has run squarely into objections, not from the War Department but from the veteran admirals of the Navy. These admirals, with Admiral E. W. Eberle as their spokesman, take a position which it is fair to state as follows: That because San Francisco Harbor is the greatest and best- protected naval seaport on the western coast of the United States, therefore it should not be bridged. It seems rather ironical to penalize a mighty seaport and handicap the peace-time develop- ment of the increasing population upon its twin shores simply because their harbor is one of the best in the world! The implied praise is flattering, and it might make a splen- did jine for the Western boosters: “Our har- bor is regarded by the Navy as too good to bridge,’’ but they would rather have the bridge itself—and they are entitled to it. Three engineers, headed by Robert Ridgway, consulting engineer for the Port Authority of New York, have worked out a bridge plan which does not interfere with naval activities or needs in any essential particular. On paper, the bridge crosses the present naval anchorage. But anyone who has seen that tremendous expanse of water knows that there are several available anchorages within the Golden Gate. Indeed, the present anchor- age is left available if only its paper bound- aries are shifted some 2,000 feet southward into water equally deep. Every vessel in the Navy is constructed to zo under Brooklyn Bridge, with its vertical clearance of 135 feet. The San Franciscans have allowed 150 feet for the full 12,000 feet of lateral distance; and they are willing to provide “movable spans,” with limitless clear- ance, to suit naval demands. The reason why they want their bridge cen- trally located is, simply, that it will cost $75,- 000,000 to $100,000,000 to build and must be financed out of tolls. Unless the bridge really serves traffic needs, competing with the present ferryboats in point of service and time, it will not get the business. A bridge can not be financed in any bad location, and none but the best bridge will be built. It is right that the naval authorities should be on guard against any projects that might interfere with the Navy’s freedom of move- ment, but all elements of San Francisco’s problem should be given due weight. The city is entitled to the opportunity to grow. The community is actually being held back in its progress on account of traffic congestion. The great ferry system has been outgrown. Secretary Wilbur knows that the War De- partment will not grant this permit over his firm objection. But all the requirements of the Navy can be provided for in this case. A slight modification of the Navy’s more extreme desires will bring relief to San Francisco. UNDIGESTED BOND ISSUES. The Federal Reserve Board reports that the volume of brokers’ loans is greater than ever. Investigation discloses the fact that this in- crease is due not to stock speculation but to excessive issues of bonds. Unsold bonds re- main in the hands of syndicates and are carried by large loans. New financing in the form of bond issues has reached a rapid pace during the last few months. Experts estimate that during the five months ended with May new bond offer- ings reached a volume of $4,374,000,000. In May alone they mounted to $946,769,000. The total of unsold or undigested bonds is estimated at $700,000,000, or about 16 per cent of the total of new flotations. It is esti- mated that about $250,000,000 of these unsold bonds are foreign. These facts and figures indicate a failure on the. part of the investing public to absorb the large volume issued, particularly foreign bonds. Undigested bond issues are evidences of a reaction against the practice of stuffing the investment market by-offering bonds at a heavy discount and a low rate of interest. Competition between banking houses and banking syndicates has brought about a period of bond indigestion and a disturbance of the credit market, which will become worse until normal conditions. are restored. Credits thus tied up in overissues of bonds deprive the industrials and other productive enterprises of needed credit and tend to raise Anterest and discount rates. [n the light of this’ situation, the Federal Reserve Board and the banks themselves are justified in raising interest rates. Banking syndicates and in- vestment houses should cease this competition among themselves for the sale to the public of excessive bond issues until such a time as the earning and saving power of the country catches up with the volume of credit offered in~ the shape of bonds, both. domestic and foreign. 4 (ae Let’s see; who was | the ges hero in the head- | The Exchange of Proposals.

COATLESS MEN. Why is it required in summer time that a gentleman wear his coat every- where except on the golf links or the tennis court or in the swimming pool, asks the Newscastle Times.

AIR PLAY. Eliminate the Yellow. Light. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Your editorial in this morning’s Post con- cerning the “Yellow Light Danger” is indeed food for thought.

The next change would then be from the middle red to green. This would eliminate any possibility of the danger confronting the present yeliow-light system, since the objectionable features have been eliminated The traffic continues on the green until the next change is to take place. Instead of changing from green to yellow, leave the green light on, and at the same time light the middle red light. This would indicate that a change from green to red is taking place, and to clear the crossing. Both lights should remain burning the same length of time that the present yellow light burns, and both extinguished at. the end of this period, and ghe lower red light alone be lighted. ,All traffic then will be brought to a stop. ° Pedes- trians can easily follow this scheme and cross only with the green light. In this connection it would be well to recall that after a tong period in which red. yellow and green indications — were used New oo City a that it was advisable to stick to red and green and have eliminated the yellow from the entire system.

VISITORS ARE WELCOMED Projects for the beautification of the environs of Washington which are being worked out by various planning com- missions, receiving impetus yesterday afternoon from a barbecue at the home of Dr. P. D. Porter in Woodside Park, at which members of the commissions gathered. The barbecue was designed to give those working for the development of the city an opportunity to become bet- ter acquainted personally. Views on different matters affecting the city plans were freely exchanged. Maj. E. Brooke Lee welcomed the visitors to Montgomery County. Among those represented were the National Capital Park and Planning Commission, the new Maryland Planning Commis- sion, the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission, the District Engineer, and the Fine Arts Commission. Those present were E. H. Bogely, Irving Owings, Blair Lee, Thomas Hampton, J. Bond Smith, Robert Morse, H. R. Hall, J. Darby Bowman, Capt. V D. Cockey, Ralph Lee, H. P. Caemmerer, Ferdinand Norcross, Horace Peaselee, Gilbert Rodier, Ward Brown, Victor Mindeleff, Lacy Shaw, J. D. Clagett, Maj. E. Brooke Lee, Maj. W. E. R. Covell and Steven A. Mather. NURSE GOES ON TRIAL AS WOMAN’S SLAYER Big Crowd Seeks Entrance to Court at Hearing of Mrs. Montague. Asheville, N. C., June 28 (By A. P.).— The trial of Mrs. Anna K. Mantague, 45-year-old nurse, charged with slay- ing Mrs. Mary R. Cooper, 61-year-old widow, whose. companion Mrs. . Mon- tague had been for several months, was begun in Buncombe County Court here today. More than 1,000 persons at- tempted to push their way into the courtroom, packed long before court opened. Occupying six rows of seats across the front of the courtroom was a spe- cial venire of 150 men from which a jury was to be selected. Judge Thomas J. Shaw, of Greensboro, occupied the bench. Mrs, Montague sat with her estranged husband, Dr. S. S. Montague, of Ox- ford, N. C., and her sister, Miss Helen Wilkerson, of New York. She whis- pered repeatedly to her lawyers and relatives. Close friends of the dead woman, witnesses for the State and Mrs. Coop- ers’ few relatives sat at the prosecu- tion’s table. The body of Mrs. Cooper was found on the morning of May 10 by a negro maid. It lay half hidden by weeds in @ vacant lot next door to Mrs. Coop- er’s home. The head was beaten in and the jugular vein had been severed. A theory that she had committed sul- cide over the death of her husband was abandoned when an autopsy re- vealed two fractures in the skull. Two Men Badly Hurt When Auto Overturns Suffolk, Va., June 23 (By A. P.).— Edward Cohoon, 45 years old, of Eliza- beth City, N. C., suffered a fractured skull and possible internal injuries, and M. W. Ferebee, city manager of Eliza- beth City, was seriously hurt when the car in which they were riding turned over on the Suffolk-Petersburg high- way near Franklin, Va., today. Both were brought here to a local hospital. Cohoon, who was driving, lost con- trol of the car, it is said, the machine leaving the road and turning over sev- eral times. The two North Carolinians were en route to Danville, where they were to inspect stréet-sweeping ma- chinery. Mayor Howard Quits Race for Reelection Special to The Washington Post. Annapolis, Md., June 23—Mayor Al- len B. Howard, Democrat, today step- ped out of the race for reelection to a second term in the municipal elec- tion July 11. It is regarded as likely that Dr. Gordon H. Claude, a former mayor, will do likewise. Thus the field would be left to former Mayor Charles W. Smith, Democrat,* and Walter Queenstedt, Republican. Mayor Howard’s withdrawal was not unexpected. Two years ago he was elected by an unprecedented majority. Rockville Marriage Licenses.

Now in Effect from CHICAGO Low Summer Fares to Alf the West TWOMEN ARE ASSISTING RADIO AUDITION PLANS Mrs. Medill McCormick and’ . Others Sponsor Prepara- tory State Tests. ROYAL HOUR COMES HOME The preliminary work of organizing the United States for the national radio audition to be conducted by the Atwater Kent Foundation is progressing rapidly. Three nationally known women have associated themselves with the movement by accepting chairmanships of State committees. In Illinois the State audition will be sponsored by Mrs. Medill McCormick, daughter of Mark Hanna and widow of the late United States Senator Mc- Cormick. Mrs. Henry B. Joy, of De- troit, has accepted the chairmanship for Michigan. he is widely known as a leader in civic as well as social af- fairs and believes that the national radio audition will discover obscure vocal talent and elevate the standards of radio music. Mrs. Austin Peay, wife of the Governor of Tennessee, will serve as the head of the Tennessee committee, The State committees in turn will appoint local or community sponsors throughout the States, whose task will be to supervise the preliminary singing contests. The local contests will be held in September. If four young college students one summer not so long ago had not been engaged as waiters at the summer camp of Oscar Seagle, well known vocal in- structor, the audience of the red net- work would probably not have the op- portunity of hearing the Cities Service Cavaliers in collaboration with the Cities Service Concerf Orchestra. The Cities Service Concert Orchestra, under the baton of Rosario Bourdon, and the Cities Service Cavaliers will be heard in an hour’s program tonight at 7 o'clock. Following a half-hour program known as “Musical Miniatures,” opera soloists with an orchestra, the W. B. & A. Quartet will present its weekly program as follows: “Come Where the Lilies Bloom,” “The Broken Melody,” “Be Thine the Delight,” “But They Didn’t,” “Come, Come Again,” “The Lightning Bug,” “Alabama Lullaby,” “Little Or- phan Annie” and “Shoogy Shoo.’’ The Lord Calvert hour of music will be on the air from 9 to 10 o'clock tonight, followed by dance music by the Hotel Bossert and Greenwich Vil- lage Inn orchestras. After the regular noon luncheon music, there wlil be a play-by-play account of the Washington-Boston baseball game by Thornton Fisher. The late afternoon program from WEAF will include Anne Johnson, soprano, and Hyman Tashoff, violinist. The homecoming of the Royal Hour will be celebrated in the broadcast by the blue network from WJZ at 17:30 o'clock tonight. Led by Joe Green, leader of the Royal Musicmakers and accompanied by Helen Clark, heroine, and Charles Harrison, hero, the feature will approach the shores of the United States, indulging in musical reminis- cences of the broadcast trip. The theme song of the period will be “Memories,” and the first memory will be of the far- off Orient, “Moonlight in Mandalay,” played by the orchestra. The islands of the Pacific will be recalled in memory with “Sweet Hawaiian Dreams;” Naples, with “Neapolitan Nights” and India, with “Moonlight on the Ganges” and “Song of India.” Three dance orchestras will furnish the latter half of WPG’s program to- Three fine d ly traing, including: the ; de luxe Columbine.

A Swedish woman furnished KFI with its weekly laugh during the broad- casting of the Lindbergh reception from Washington. When the KFI an- nouncer arrived at the station in the early morning he found the woman there ahead of him. Because of her naive manner, he violated the station rule of no visitors during broadcasting and ushered her into the _ freception room. He then went.into the main studio to put the station on the air. A half hour later he returned to the reception room, which is also used as an auxiliary broadcasting studio at times. He found the lone visitor leaning over two spare microphone stands, holding the microphones to her ears with eager intentness. Overhead a cone loud speaker blared with the strains of the United States Marine Band. “These telephones don’t work so very well, do they?” she asked, catching the announcer’s startled look, and then took a firmer grasp on her strange “headphones.” ® rs oes S set Bt all scores. n.—Cities Service Concert Or- nd Cities re Cavaliers. for tim cal “ininiatures, opera Be aoe + ai \ 5! a >?

A year iater their son is bora. Lawis hus returned to town, meanwhile, ang is working for the firm which employs Harvey. Fle tells Barvey he has discovered @ chemical formula of great ‘ndustrial value. Harvey undertakes to get his uncle, the president of t compuny. to put it across. Soon after the birth of the second child Harvéy announces that he bas been taken iuto the firm following his discovery of a formule for making rubber. Lewis, meanwhile, bas lost bis job, bis project being # failure, and be goes away. With the money from Harvey’s product the Riantons build a beautiful home. Christine bas every luxury, but she is happy only with her ehildren. She finds that Harvey's friends are strangers to her. A chance meeting with Lewis reveals to here that the old friendship between bim and Rarvey has been broken. A friend, who is sturbed by Christine’s complete absorption in her children, persuades her to broaden her intérests. Christine's first venture is to pub lish a little book of fairy tales, Then she learns that Harvey is going a fast pace. In his pocket she finds a love letter. She goes to her parents, but they refuse to receive her. So she takes her childrep and goes to New York to try to earn a living. Sle makes her home with a middle-aged cousin, Anna Morrison, After weeks of effort she gets a job as wu dancer in a cheap cabaret. Her funds are exhausted and she has no choice. Her first venture is a proposal of marriage from the proprietor. ‘Then she meets Lewis quite by accident. Their friendship is re- sumed, since he does not hold enmity against either her or Harvey for the theft of his idea. Christine writes a magazine series, called “Cabaret Sketches,”” and succeeds in selling them. But bad tuck follows. Cousin Anga its called away from New York and Chéistine has to find a new home, Lewis proyes bis friendship by helping her in every way she will permit. Harvey is killed in an automobile accident and leaves nothing but de§ts. Christine falls ill and is in a hospital for weeks. Roth her cabaret job and her magazine work are gone when Christine re- covers, and she is obliged to accept financia) help from Lewis. hen he begs her to marry him she con- sents, first out of gratitude, second because she hopes to atone for the wrong Harvey did him and third because she is destitute. But the marriage ceremony is hardly over when she realizes that she can never live with him as “his wife. He goes away, and she finds work «pn the staff of a magazine, but she soon loses it, due to the jealously of her superior. At the same time she learns that her son hat a weak heart. A series of jobs finally lands her on the staff of a theatrical maga zine. There she meets Nina Marcy, and is intfoduced to a new set. It includes Henry Sanford, a millionaire, who is known as ‘a backer of theatrical enterprises. He takes a fancy to her. She writes a play and goes to bis apart- ment to read it to him, hoping he will help her. get it produced. His conduct so affronts her that she leaves in a rage. All chance of hating her play produced is gone; but she forgets that and everything else when her son falls dangerously ill. The child dies, and Christine is lost in despair. In a fit of rebellion and recklessness she calls up Sanford. mn her way to keep an appointment with him. she meets with an accident which pre- vents her seeing him. She is grateful to have been saved from her folly. e suit which follows serves to introduce CHAPTER XXXXVIII. The New Impulse. The Christine to Clifford Vane, a lawyer. T happened quite naturally—or per- I haps Clifford Vane saw to it that -it appeared quite natural—that he and Christine left the building at the Same time. The woman who had in- troduced them entered another hired limousine, and they were left alone. “Perhaps you wili permit me to drive you home, Mrs. Blanton?” suggested Vane. Christine assented gratefully. She waS very weary, and the thought of hanging to a subway strap was sick- ening. He assisted her into his car— a smart, gray affair. She sank back lux- uriously in the seat beside him. It was a long time since she had ridden in a private car. The thought recalled Henry San- ford, and she thrust the memory from her savagely. In the presence of Vane —this strange young. man with whom she had scarcely exchanged a dozea words—the mere thought of Sanford made her ashamed. She wondered why, puzzling over her curious reaction half in bitterness, half in amazement. , Im the end, she dismissed the sub- ject with a cynical shrug. He noticed thé movement, slight as it was, and turned his gaze momentarily from the maze of traffic. “Are you cold? Put this rug about ou.” ' She protested that she wasn’t cold, although the warm day had turned chilly, and her frock was absurdly thin. He drove in silence for a while. The traffic was dense, and driving required all his attention. But. as they turned into Washington Square, he said sud- denly: “Would you think it very imperti- nent of me if I asked you to have tea with me? I know an attractive little place hereabouts, and I think we both need refreshment after that tiresome afternoon.” Christine hesitated. The new Chris- tine—the Christine whom New York had made cynical and bitter and care- less of consequence—urged her to ac- cept, for tea meant the saving of the price of dinner. The old Christine, who had been, for a time, the beloved and protected wife, revolted at the idea of accepting tea on such a basis from a stranger. But, curiously, there was also an- other Christine—a Christine who wanted this man to think well of her, For the first time in many, many months .she cared what some one thought of her. And what petter way — ——_—— Mil. | Before he could assist her, she had stepped to the sidewalk, to cheapen herself than to accept a casual invitation too easily and too quickly? So she said: “Thank you very, very much, but I can’t today.” He reluctantly brought the car to a standstill in front of her house. His gray eyes searched her face. “You're not offened by my—er— pre- sumption?” No, no,” she protested. “You've been very kind.” “Then—if you're really not just let- ting me down easy, couldn’t you man- age to have tea another day?” Irresolution seized Christine. She did want to see this attractive man again. How easy and simple to say “Yes” and make an appointment! Instead, she held out her hand and smiled up at him. “Perhaps'we may meet again—some- time. Thanks awfully for the drive home.” Before he could assist her, she had stepped to the sidewalk. With a gay wave of her hand, she was gone, swal- lowed up by the dingy doorway of the old brownstone front. But, through the murky glass, her- self unseen, she watched Vane slowly put his car in motion and drive away. When he was out of sight, she still stared at the street. “You fool!” she told herself : bitterly —it was the Christine of the past few months chiding her—‘you’ve passed up a man who could have been useful to you—all because of a silly whim as antedeluvian as hoop skirts you—and you threw your away!” As she went upstairs, she added, with @ little, twisted smile at her own thought and the regret it occasioned: “You'll never see him again!” And she told herself it was only be- cause she was tired of hamburger steak He liked chance and canned soup, and because the) Vanes of this world meant breast of| 9 chicken and mushrooms and artichokes that she was sorry they would never meet again. “How Nina would laugh at me for playing the coquettish little fool in- stead of grabbing a golden oppor- tunity!” she thought, as she prepared supper for herself and Louise. She went to bed angry with herself, at outs with all the world. But, when Louise, waking in the midst of a bad | 4g dream, cried out in the night, Chris- tine drew the child into her own bed and comforted her with greater tender- ness ‘ian sne had felt for her since the death of Junior. She felt a sudden pang as she realized how careless her attitude toward her little daughter had been. In the morning she shrugged at her change of heart. “It was that infernal Vane episode!” she told herself. “If I really knew that man, I’d probably be decent again.” She went off to her new job, won- dering if they would ever meet again.

Se BEAUTY AND YOU noe FACTS ABOUT TEETH FEN a quick smile discloses lovely teeth in an adult, one can not help but think that that person owes a real debt of gratitude to her parents for governing her mouth hygiene along a_ sensible, healthful path. For, unless the teeth have been consistently looked after since early childhood, they are very likely to be lacking in one or more features of beauty — wholeness, regularity and whiteness. Besides insisting upon the twice-daily brushing with a scien- tifically constructed brush, mothers should watch the way their children chew. One side of the jaw should not be used to the exclusion of the other. Besides developing the jaws unsym- metrically and affecting the even con- tours of the face, it also permits tartar to develop heavily on the unused side. Usually this one-sided chewing can be taken as an indication that there is a tooth that needs attention on the other side. Still, like our skin, our teeth trou- bles do not really begin until we achieve adult age. A conglomeration of foods, not so natural as those we eat during childhood, produce acids that attack the teeth and eat through the protective coating of enamel. A | discolored film over teeth is a sign of acid mouth, and this, in turn, hints at the possibility of aaldity in the blood —a highly undesirable condition. The tartar should be removed and one’s diet corrected to exclude the acid- forming foods. An excellent mouth- wash, to be used for this condition every night before going to bed, is milk By VIOLA PARIS of magnesia mixed with an equal quantity of water. . The teeth should be brushed not less than twice a day—preferably three times. Then, every six nfOnths, a thor- ough prophylactic cleansing should be given by the dentist. Between these cleansings, certain other prediodical cleansings can be accomplished at home. While I shall give you several methods to choose from, by no means are you supposed to employ them all. 1. Put some charcoal in a saucer and saturate it with hydrogen peroxide. Apply this to the teeth with a soft cloth, rubbing the discolored spots vig- orously., Rinse the teeth thoroughly after using. This method, if chosen, may be used daily, for it helps preserve the teeth and bleaches them, at the Same time keeping the breath sweet. 2. Once a month go well over the inside and the outside of the teeth with a firmly held orangewood stick. The orangewood stick must be well smoothed so as not to chip the en- amel. If the teeth are very stained, wet the stick in cold water and dip in pumice stone, taking care to rinse the mouth well afterward in salt water or some mild antiseptic. Every magazine and paper we read admonishes us in its advertising sec- tion to care for our gums in order to prevent pyorrhea. To this end, coarse foods should be included in the diet, and, if the gums are delicate already, some special attention must be given to harden them. There are special dentifrices for this purpose, obtainable from any druggist. Do not be afraid to brush the gums briskly, for this in itself will make them less tender. (Copyright, 1927.) HOW TO KEEP WELL By DR. W. WAYS TO TREAT BURNS. HE treatment of burns js not en- tirely satisfactory for the man treated or for the physician treat- ing. The reasons are several. Burus are painful, far more so than other wounds. This is particularly true of superficial burns. They cause an un- usual amount of shock. They frequent- ly heal unsatisfactcrily. They leaves large. scars. The reasons for all this are easily understood. The skin is rich in nerves which feel pain. Burns harm a lot of skin. Therefore the pain is great, par- ticularly if the burn is not deep enough to kill many of the skin nerves. The shock results from the harm done a large number'of skin nerve endings. These nerve endings are likely to heal unsatisf{factorily because they leave large, raw surfaces. In present day surgery no other wounds leave such large, raw, absorbing surfaces. And, finally, they cause large scars for the same reason. Each of these points suggests some- thing about how to treat burns. When @ man gets a small, shallow burn it is the pain which registers strongest in his mind. To relieve this the man tries to cover the burned skin. He generaily does this by sticking the burn in water. The plan is a good one. Some baking soda is added to the water, To add about a teaspoon of salt to each pint of the water would be a little better than adding soda. As soon as it can be done water to which the salt has been added should be heated and rap- idly cooled and used instead of plain water. After a short time the water bath can be replaced by a dr g. Here, again, the aim sought is a sterile cov- ering. Powdered baking soda is fre- quently used. A simple salve that is known to be sterile is better. This should be covered by a light dressing of sterile gauze. If chattering of the teeth, coldness, t means sh f hot coffee the burn is extensive the pain and ee wcr.|| GOOD MONEY | | A. EVANS shock stage is followed by that period in which a large open wound must be protected against infection and in which absorption is to be kept down. One way of doing this is by keeping the wound covered by paraffin. An- other one consists in applying a solu- tion of picric acid. This is done to coagulate the ooze on the surface. Dr. E. C. Davidson thinks a better way to prevent absorption of poisonous mate- rial and to ward off infection is to ap- ply tannic acid. He covers the wound with sterile gauze. Then saturates the gauze with a 2.5 per cent solution of tannic acid in water. This covers the wound with a light brown coat. He keeps the gauze wet for 12 to 24 hours, when he softens it further with the solution and removes it. If the tannic acid solution remains on too long it burns too deep. After the gauze is off he treats the burn as an open wound. The claim for tannic acid is that it makes a better protecting film than pic- ric acid does. If it is inconvenient to go around with an open wound the burn may be covered with a very, little sterile gauze. BABY SWALLOWED LYE. L. S. writes: What can be done for a baby’s throat that is about to close up? She got hold of some lye and swallowed it and her throat is about to close. REPLY: Get the child in the hands of a good surgeon.

P.).—A more favorable view of the weather out- look seemed responsible for a decline in the cotton market today, but covering or trade buying steadied prices below the 17-cent level for October contracts.

The official weather forecast seemed in line with private views of the out- were indicated toward the Eastern belt, the weather map as a whole evidently made a more favorable impression on sentiment. July sold off to 16.56 and December to 17.16, net declines of about 13 to 15 points, but a little more trade bu a was in evidence below the 17-cent for October, and ra during the early afternoon carried pfices back within a ag ve or two of yesterday’s closin ye tions.

WASHINGTON: FRIDAY. JUNE 24, 1927. — So 13 % NATIONALS LOSE FINAL AT PHILADELPHIA, 4 TO 1 Heavy Rivals Sign Papers For Bout Dempsey Will Receive at Least $250,000 in Sharkey Fight. Former Champion Has Busy Day; Meets His Opponent. N*® YORK, June 23 (By A. P.).— Formalities for Jack Dempsey’s fifteen-round comeback battle with Jack Sharkey July 21 were com- pleted ‘today with the signing of both men to contracts before a battery of cameras at Madison Square Garden. The former champion will receive 2714 per cent of the gate receipts, which Tex Rickard believes will run over $1,000,000. Dempsey was guar- anteed, however, a lump sum of about $250,000, the highest ever given a prin- cipal in a nonchampionship bout. Sharkey’s “end” was set at 2244 _ per cent of the “gate.” Both posted $2,500 appearance forfeits. Dempsey left tonight for his training quarters at Tom Luther’s Camp, Saratoga, N. Y., to start work Monday on a staff of six husky sparring partners. After a week’s fishing trip to Spen- cer, Maine, Sharkey will set up train- ing quarters on the roof of Madison Square Garden here. Starting July 5, he will work only two weeks against three partners, believing that the grind of the winter season, during which he conquered Harry Wills, Mike McTigue and Jimmy Maloney, has left him tuned tc first-class fighting trim. Mrs. Shar- key will accompany the Boston slugger on the fishing trip. Signing of articles capped a busy day for the former champion and brought him to his first close contact with Sharkey. Earlier Dempsey filed ap ap- plication for a boxing license with the New York State Athletic Commission, which refused him a permit last fall; decided upon his training site, chose sparring partners and made arrange- ments for Mrs. Dempsey to leave for California tomorrow to resuine work on an unfinished motion picture. After entering the garden to the cheers of several hundred fans gathered outside, Dempsey greeted Sharkey warmly, a happy grin on his face, and quite upset the Bos- ton gob’s efforts to "give him the eve.” Oblivious of the stoney stare, Jack wrung Sharkey’s hand, complimented him on his fine physical trim and spectacular ring showing in recent com- bat, and demanded, “How’s the family, Jack?’ Sharkey’s glare faded and they chat- ted together after the signing like a pair of old sparring. mates. ry Johnny Farrell Tops Field in Eastern Open Delaware Water Gap, June 23 (By A.

Special to The Washington Post. HILADELPHIA,June 23.—The Wash- intgon Ball Team, handicapped by injury and sickness since the start of the season, suffered another set-back today when it was learnci that First Baseman Joe Judge is suffering from a blood-poisoned finger and may be out of. the line-up for more than a week. About ten days ago a rifle throw by Bobby Reeves collided with the index finger of Judge’s left hand, partially tearing off the nail. Judge, however, stuck to his task, and two days ago re- moved the bandage. Dirt must have sifted into the wound. Near the end of yesterday’s double-header Judge complained of pains in his left elbow and under the arm but did not know that his injured finger was responsible in any way. , About midnight last night the digit suddenly started swelling, and he treat- ed it himself until this mggning when he reported his case to iner Mike Martin. The Phialediphia Club’s phy- sician lanced the finger, but the first baseman was in no condition to play today. Judge entrained for Washing- ton on the Congressional Limited this afternoon, where the finger will be treated by the club physician there, According to Trainer Martin, if things go well, the player will re- cover almost as fast as he was stricken. If this is the case, Joe possibly will be back in Sunday’s game at Washington. On the other hand, if the poison has made more headway than is expected, the play- CONTINUED ON PAGE 16, COLUMN 1. TRIPLE PLAY BY TIGERS; WIN, 6-5 Defeat Sends Chisox to Third Place in Team Standing. ( rDetrote June 23 (By A. P.).— Detroit defeated Chicago, 6 to 5, in a thrilling eleven-inning bat- tle today and dropped Chicago to third place. Erratic support, cou- pled with daring base running by the Tigers, defeated Ted Lyons, al- though he allowed only six hits. Lil Stoner weakened in the ninth, and Pinch Hitter Earl Sheely, the first man to face Whitehill, Stoner’s relife, singled, scoring Falk with the tying run. The visitors won out in the eleventh on Blue’s single, Tavener’s sacrifice, Blue’s steal of third and Woodall’s sacrifie fly The game was featured by the first triple play of the season in Chicago, which was made by the Tigers in the third inning. With Lyons on third and Metzler on second, Hunnefield grounded to Gehr- inger, who threw Hunnefield out at first. Blue pegged to Tavener to catch | Metzler off second. When Lyons at- tempted to score, Tavener’s throw to Woodail made the third out. Detroit.

OSTON, June 23 (By A. P.).—Lou Gehrig. made three home runs to- day as the Yankees defeated the Red Sox, 11 to 4, and won their ninth straight, including the entire five-game series against Boston. Gehrig now has 21 homers, 3 less than Babe Ruth. This was the second time this year that three home runs have been hit in one game in the majors. On June 11, Tony Lazzeri, of the Yanks, made three circuit counters against the White Sox at the Yankee Stadium The first homer for Gehrig came in the second inning with Ruth on base, and cleared the left center fleld fence. Lundgren then was pitching. As first man up in the sixth and eighth innings, Gehrig drove MacFayden’s delivery into the center field bleachers. It was the first time three home runs ever have been made in one game at Fenway Park. The record in the big leagues for home runs is held jointly by Robert Lowe and Edward Delahanty, both of whom hit four. New York. AB H Combs,cf... 2 Morehart,2b Ruth, lf Gehrigz,1b...

Henry Lamar Wins Easily in Boston Ring Boston, Mass., June 23.—Al]l Mello, of Lowell, knocked out Johnny Mendel- sohn, of Wisconsin, in the second round of their scheduled ten-round contest here’ tonight, while the: fans booed what appeared to have a small resemblance to a genuine fight. Men- delsohn didn’t hit Mello at all, while the latter from the very start handed out right jabs to the head and left hooks to the body and head. The eight-round contest between Henry Lamar, of Washington, and Joe (Cyclone) De Rosier, of New Hamp- shire, was a far better go, but also lacked any real competition. Lamar won easily, taking every round, hitting cleverly and at will. A left jab: fol- | lowed by crossing the right to the chin | were his most effective tactics.

LTHOUGH a field of more than 150 players competed yesterday in the second day of the quali- fying round in the Congressional Coun- try Club tournament, less than half of that number turned in their cards and not one of the contestants was able to break 80. The prize for low qualifi- cation score has, therefore, been won ‘by A. L. Houghton, Manor, whose card of 75 on Wednesday remained in the lead by 2 strokes. Only two players yesterday—Maj. Earl Naiden, Army golf champion, and Harry G. Pitt, Manor— were able to even approximate a low score, and each totaled 80 for the round of eighteen holes. - When all the cards had been turned in, six. players tied for two places in the first sixteen with cards of 83. As Maj. Naiden, G. W. McCarter, Indian Spring, and C. Chester Ward, Fort Humphreys, were absent, the other three players—-M. B. Stevinson, Colum- bia; Roger Peacock, Argyle, and F. E. Early, Indian Spring—participated in the play-off, the absentees being auto- matically assigned positions in the sec- ond sixteen. Stevinson was eliminated on the first hole, playing his third shot into a trap, his fourth to the edge of the green and his fifth stroke, a long putt, hitting the cup but fali- ing to drop. Peacock, who is only 15 years old, and Early halved the hole in, birdie 5s. At the conclusion of the play-off Stevin- son withdrew, declining to play in the second sixteen. As predicted yesterday, no score over 92 qualified. In fact, only one player with a card of 92 appears in the pair- ings for match play, J. M. Cutts, un- attached, being the fortunate competi- tor to have his name drawn into the list. Middleton Beaman, Bannockburn; Dr. G. W. Maxfield, Indian Spring; Russell T. Edwards, Manor; Charles S. Agnew, jr., unattached; C. C. Heath, Bannockburn; E. R. Shipp, Congres- sional, and D. E. Cross, Louisville Coun- try Club, each with a card of 92, lost out in the draw. No fess than fourteen players withdrew after turning in their cards, while those who abandoned the struggle without even submit- ting their scores were numerous. All of them had tragic stories of mis- haps on various holes but Paul Y. An- derson is entitled to a word of sym- pathy. As he stood on the ninth tee he had a par 3 for a 42, only five strokes over par, but on the ninth hole he played ping-pong across the green from trap to trap and tree to tree and finally putted out on his ninth Stroke. Even then he was not dis- couraged but when he took six strokes to hole out on the short sixteenth he gave up in despair. The pairings and times of play for the first match round this morning are as follows: FIRST SIXTEEN. 10:00, Harry G. Pitt, 80, Manor, vs. Wiliam E. Richardson, 81, Manor; 10:05, W.

NO PRO IDEAS NOW, SAYS TILDEN Ace Defends His Right to Ask Questions of Officials. {¥¥ 71IMBLEDON, June 23 (By A. P.), “Big Btil’” Tilden has no inten- tions of turning professional for the present, but what his senti- ments on the matter will be # year from now he is unable to sey, the American star today told the Associated Press. Discussing reports published in the European press that he was thinking of turning professional, Tilden said: “Will you please deny for me reports emanating from. America and repro- duced here that I have the intention of turning professional. I have not ac- cepted any $20,000 a year job in tennis or any other offer. Those are my sen- timents now. What they will be a year from now I am unable to say.” Referring to yesterday’s incident with the foot fault judge which is commented on at length in the morning press, all of which justify Tilden’s action, the American player said rather jokirgly: “If this game has reached such a pass that a player can not talk to an official and ask him wherein he is committing a fault so as to avoid a recurrence it the future, then I am going to quit it.” London, June 23 (By A. P.).—Some tennis writers in this morning’s papers rebuked that section of the spectators at Wimbledon which shouted “play the game,” at William T. Tilden, during his doubles match yesterday with Fran- cis T. Hunter as partner, against the British pair, Campbell and Crawshay- Williams. The shouts came when Ti!- den halted the game after having a foot fault called on him, to ask the judge what was wrong with his service. The American, the writers say, did not question the ruling, but merely asked, as he was entitled to do, which particular foot fault had been com- mitted, and the action of the shout- ers was “ignorant, rude and unsports- manlike.” Tilden and Hunter won the match, 6—0, 6—3, 6—1. Joe Kirkwood Defeats Bobby Jones, 5 and 4 Albany, Ga., June 23 (By A: P.).— Joe Kirkwood, professional, defeated Bobby Jones, 5 up and 4 to play here today in an 18-hole exhibition match which marked the Atlanta amateur’s last play before leaving for New York and possibly to England to defend his British open golf title. Kirkwood set a new record for the Radium Springs Country Club Course with a score of 65, seven under par, and although Bobby shot one under par with a 71, he was no match for Kirk- wood.

The camp, which is operated by Dr. Sheldon G. Davis, of this city, is situ- ated between the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Shenandoah River. About 50 boys will attend the two-month session at. camp. | | Taylor-Canzoneri Bout Held Over Till Tonight Chicago, June 23 (By A.

Because of wet grounds a_ baseball game that was to have been played here tonight under flood light pro- jectors was postponed until tomorrow night. The game was to have been an ex- hibition contest between the Salem and Lynn Clubs of the New England League, but Babe Ruth was to test his batting eye in the imitation daylight.

P.).—Gloom thicker than London fog settled over Ameri- cans at the fourth day’s play in the | Wimbledon tennis tournament, though the American players won four matches | and lost only one. It came about through the defeat of the once invincible Molla Mallory, seven times American champion, by Betty Nuthall, England’s admirable youthful performer. Miss Nuthall, a 16-year-old English schoolgirl, struck a great blow for the younger tennis generation when, after a cleverly con- ducted up-hill battle, she won from Mrs. Mallory. Miss Elizabeth Ryan, William T. Til- den and Francis T. Hunter provided the American successes in the singles, and Miss Ryan and Miss Helen Wills the victory in the women’s doubles. The Americans did not show much rejoicing over the. victories of thelr compatriots, but they did display Something more than sor- row that Mrs. Mallory, one of their “big three,” with some hope of win- ning the Wimbledon -champion- Ships, had been eliminated. The schoolgirl Betty won the match on her merits, outgeneraling and out- playing the American veteran. The score was 2—6; 6—2, 6—0 in favor of the girl. For sheer force of driving, the first set was one of the fastest ever seen be- tween women players. After going to deuce four times, Miss Nuthall captured the first game.

Miss Nuthall soon realized that she was unable to cope with Mrs. Mal- lory’s magnificent drives of the fore- hand and backhand, and suddenly re- leyer'and came up to the «net. won the match for her. In the last set she captured the first four games by resuming her campaign from the baseline, then went to the net again to win. Miss Elizabeth Ryan was in her element on the fast center court. Her game was very effective against Mrs. H. C. Broadbridge, whom she defeated 6—2, 6—3. She used a sliding chop stroke, rushing up to the net whenever opportunity pre- sented, and volleyed with remark- able accuracy. » William T. Tilden, who is busy deny- ing rumors that he will become a pro- fessional. needed 50 minutes today to reach the fourth round in the singles. He defeated G. T. Hughes in straight sets, 6—3, 6—4, 6—0. “Hunter is likely to become the senior member of our team,” said Til- den, when he heard Francis T. Hunter had won from Arthur H. Lowe, an Eng- lish veteran, 6—2, 8—6, 6—3. and reached the fourth round. Helen Wills, paired with Elizabeth Ryan, added another victory in the women’s doubles. The Americans de- feated the English pair, Mrs. Whitley and Miss Welch, 6—3. 6—2. Miss Wills played with more spirit.and apparent enjoyment than she had previously shown in the tournament. The French stars, Lacoste, Cochet and Borotra, also passed the _ third round safely, while Timmer, of Hol- land, by defeating Pierre Landry, of France, the conqueror of the Japanese star, Harada, on the opening day in the same bracket.

Simmons’ Hitting Is Factor; Outfielder Slams Homer. By FRANK H, YOUNG. HILADELPHIA, June 23-—After having divided the spoils in two double-headers, the Washington team today dropped the “rubber game” of the series with the Athletics, 4 to 1 It was a nip and tuck pitchers’ bat- tle between two flingers who usually fill relief roles. Fred Marberry and Charlie Willis, the latter starting his first 1927 game. i, Marberry lost the verdict because of his inability to still Al Simmons’ bat. After the Nats had started with a one- run lead and the Elephants had knot- ted the count, Simmons broke the deadicck with his tenth homer of the season and his third in two days, while his double in the seventh with two dead propelled a mate over the rubber. The use of a pinch-hitter allowed Marberry to slide out of the picture and Southpaw Garland Braxton fine ished out the string in good style, Willis, who also pitches with the wrong arm, granted .but four scat- tered hits between Washington rallies in the first and final frames. in this latter inning, Harris opened with a single and stole third after Goslin had followed suit, but Willis emerged from trouble without dif- ficulty. Speaker and Ruel, with two each, obtained almost half of the Nats’ hits, two of which were nullified by double plays which hurt the Washington cause. The Harrismen started off well, scor- ing in the opener when Rice singled with two dead after McNeely and Speaker each had cracked out one- basers. Speaker’s inexperience as a first sacker' gave the Macks a chance to equalize this in their half. With Bishop on base as a result of his opening single, French rolled to Harris. The latter ran Bishop back to- ward first base before tossing out French and, with a sure double play in sight, Speaker forgot to complete it by tossing to Reeves. After Wheat’s roller had advanced Bishop to third, Marberry filled the bases by walking both Simmons and Hale, but Cochrane was unable to deliver In the second inning Marberry passed Dykes and this was turned into the ty- ing run when followed by Willis’ useful out and Bishops’ double to right center. The count was three and two when the Quaker second baseman connected with a fat one right:down the groove. The rival pitchers then assumed command until the last. half of the: fifth when, with two down and none en the sacks, Al Simmons splattered one into the stands in left center. With two out in the sixth, Speaker gave the Nats a chance to get. this marker back when he tripled to right center. This put it up to Goslin, but all the Goose did was to churn up the atmosphere with three lusty strikes. Round seven was lucky only for the Macks, who scored two runs after two were out on successive doubles by Lamar . and Simmons, a wild pitch, and Hale’s single. Against Braxton, the Athletics threatened in the next frame, when Dykes doubled and took third on an out, but the Nat flinger then fanned one and forced another to pop to.

P.).—An annual dividend rate of $3 a share on stock of the Chesa oe Corporation is anticipated in Wall Street, with proba- bly an initial quarterly dishursement of 75 cents. This rate is expected to be increased to $1 quarterly should the I. °C. C. approve the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway’s application to issue $59,502,- 400 stock, as the Chesapeake Corpora- tion then will subscribe for its pro rata share under the rights that may be given. Hale Holden, president of the Chi- cago, Burlington & Quincy, is quoted in private dispatch*s from Chicago as saying there was no truth in reports that the Burlington was buying into the Western Pacific. “We are much in- terested in seeing the Moffett tunnel and the Dotsero cut-off completed,” he said, “so we can participate in a joint traffic arrangement over that road, as it will shorten the distance between Chicago and the Pacific Coast by 175 miles.” He did not think 1927 earnings would be as large as in 1926. The New York Stock Exchange mem- bership of Arthur S. Whee.er has been bought for $210,000 by Robert H. Loeb, of New York, $10,000 less than the pre- vious transaction. The annual meeting of Penn Sea- board Steel has been adjourned to July 27 through lack of a quorum. Second quarter net income ef Gen- eral Refractories, will be about $466,- 000, compared with $290,021 in the sec- ond quarter last year, Chairman Sproul estimates. About $300,000 of earnings over the dividend declared has been transferred to earned surplus. Flour Mills of America, Inc., declared an extra dividend of $1 a share on the $8 cumulative preferred stock, series A, payable July 15 to holders of record July 2. Pig iron production in the United Kingdom in April rose to 680,000 tons from 671,800 in March, the Bankers Trust Co. of New York reports. Steel production .dropped to 850,100 tons, from 949,600 the month before. The Federal Reserve Bank of New York made no change in its rediscount rate of 4 per cent today. The gold movement through the port of New York in the week ended June 22 included imports of $2,597,000, of which $2,425,000 came from Holland, and exports of $173,000 to Mexico, Ger- many and Brazil Royal Typewriter Co. declared an ex- tra dividend of $1 a share on the com- mon stock; a dividend of $1 on the common, both payable July 18 to stock of record July 9, and the regular semi- annual of $3.50 a share on the pre- ferred, payable July 18 to holders of record July 16.

I don’t know why. After my graduation I came to Oregon and’ joined my brothers. “It was not our first idea to hold up a train. We figured on a bank along the Pacific highway. “When this part of our planning weat wrong, we decided to hold up a train, and drove to the Siskiyous. We picked the Shasta Limited. For three days and nights we studied train movements through the tunnel. “The night before we got all ready all of us were undecided, but each was afraid to back out, because he feared the others would say he had cold feet. “About noon Roy and I went to the north end? of the tunnel and waited for No. 13. When the train came along we ran for the blind baggage. Together we crawled over the tender and down into the cabin. \— told the engineer to stop and he did.\\ “As soon as tie# engine .topped we made ready to blow open the mail car. Before this the mail clerk stuck his head out of the door. Ray told him to come out—that we were going to blast the car. “We were giving him a chance. He again refused. I called to him the third time, and told him it was his last chance. *“All of us, the fireman and engineer, went to the denotator and Ray bore down on the handle of the blaster. Saw a Man Approaching. “We then rushed back to the engine. Roy made the fireman stand with his hands up against the wall, and I made the engineer get into the cab. We were going to make him pull the mail car down to White Pine. Ray went back to uncouple it. ' “While this was gcing on we saw a man with a fusee over his head com- ing down the right side of the train. Things were getting desperate. “Ray and I took a shot at him when he got close, “I never will forget him. He stag- gered toward us, and said: “*Wait a minute, boys!’ “T’ll never forget the look on his face. He dropped down on the ground and died. “We were all excited now. I made the engineer get back in the cab, while Ray tried to uncouple the mail car. “I told him it was my life or his. He fooled around and still we didn’t go ahead, “I was mad! “Well, if you and the world must know, I shot the engineer, Sidney Bates. I’m sorry. “Then Roy shot the fireman. He was the last. “We then ran back into the woods, where we had a secret cache. They never found it. We hid there for ten days.” When their plea of guilty was made it was discovered that the judge would be compelled under the law to inflict the death penalty. Thereupon a jury was hastily im- paneled, the confession was read, the jury returned and immediately found a verdict of guilty, recommending life imprisonment. LEGAL RECORD THURSDAY. JUNE 23, 1927.

LECTURE IS POSTPONED Members of the Washington Real Estate Board last night adopted an amendment putting a ban on solicit- ing maturing loans under $25,000. Lively discussion developed at the meeting at Wardman Park Hotel before the recommendation of the «mortgage and finance division was adopted. The amendment read: “There shall be no solicitation, by letter or other- wise, of maturing,loans of less than $25,000, held by or represented by other members of the Washington Real Es- tate Board. This prohibits the distri- bution of any printed or written matter in reference to the making of mortgage loans to persons whose loans are about to mature.” William E. Herren, extension director of the National Association of Real Es- tate Boards, principal speaker, compli- mented the board on its work, and as- serted he was glad to attend such a spirited meeting. He declared the red tape involved in real estate transfers was the greatest competition the real- tors had in selling. He said the many details connected with transfers were being fought by the mational board through their conventions end other means. Mr. Herron urged the members to use constructive thinking and a defi- nite plan for disposing of property. John F. Taubert, who was to follow Mr. Herren, with an illustrated talk on Alaska, due to the lateness of the hour, asked President Maury “to excuse him. County Engineer’s Office Is Abolished Special to The Washington Post. Warrenton, Va., June 23-—At a special meeting of the board of super- visors for Fauquier County today it was decided to discontinue, after October 1, 1927, the office of county engineer.

McWain replied that the match was out of his hands, leaving the decision to the judges. They directed the match proceed, without recalling Wilcox. Virginia Lee Jones,°10 years old, rep- resenting the Press, of Fort Worth, Tex., was the youngest contestant. She was the eleventh to be eliminated, fail- ing to spell “brusqueness.” The oldest contestant was Grace Helen Sheman, 15 years old, representing the Trenton Times. She was the sixth to be elimi- nated. Although the audience had been cau- tioned against aplause or any display of partiality, it was not to be restrained on numerous occasions when contest- ants succeeded in spelling particularly difficult words. Alternate Spelling Allowed. As a precaution agains the possibility of the children overhearing spelling of words by over-enthusiastic “rooters” in the audience, the participants were seated with their Sacks to the audi- ,torium after the firs half hour. Re- cesses of 10 minutes each were allowed every 30 minutes. The judges, Mrs. Joshua Evans, jr., trustee of George Washington Univer- sity; Alvin W. Miller, principal of Cen- tral High School, and the Rev. James Shera Montgomery, chaplain of the House of Representatives, often were forced to consult reference dictionaries for accepted spellings and pronuncia- tions. On one occasion 13-year-old Albert Govoni, representing the Telegram- Gazette, of Worcester, Mass., had been sent from the stage for spelling “en- forceable,” “e-n-f-o-r-c-i-b-l-e.” On consulting the dictionary it was found that both spellings were accepted, and Govoni was reentered in the match. He later missed on the spelling of “rinsing,” the thirteenth to be eliminated. Lillian Zetoff, representing the Hart- ford ‘Times, won sixth honors and $75 in gold; Virginia Jones, the Fort Worth Press, seventh place and $75; Margaret Beale, the Atlantic City Press, eighth | place and $50; Anita McCloskey, the Erie Dispatch-Herald, ninth place and $50, and Hulda Fornell, the Detroit News, tenth place and $50. The last seven places, respectively, were won by Marie Hahn, the New Brit- ain aDily Herald; Grace Helen Sherman, the Trenton Times; Anna Marie Ber- gan, the South Bend News-Times; Mar- jorie Allen, the New Bedford Standard; Dorothy O'Reilly, the Memphis Press- Scimitar; Mildred Riddle, the Indianap- olis Times, and Chester Wilcox, the Binghamton Press. Each of these re- ceived $35 in gold, In propounding the words, George S. Wills, of Western Maryland College, alternated with Mr. North. Some of the words which proved sticklers were “vying,” “pivotal,” “emolument,” “nain- sook,” “missspend,” “tricycle,” “viru- lent,” “exhorbitant,” “espionage,” “ben- eficence,” “permissible” and “shiver.” Ralph Keenan, the youth who won second place and $500 in gold, was brought to Washington by the Des Moines Register. A student of the Jefferson School, 9 miles out of Waukon, he defeated 98 county cham- pions to win the State title. COURT HOLDS CANCER RESULT OF ACCIDENT Widow Wins Death Claim Withheld in Contest Over : ’ Disease’s Cause. Special to The Washington Post. Winchester, Va., June 23.—Word was received today that the Virginia Su- preme Court’ of Appeals has handed down a decision favorable to the estate of the late J. Frederick Sencindiver, up- holding a judgment of the Virginia Industrial Commission in its award of approximately $3,600 to Mrs. Maude Sencindiver, his widow, after it had been contested by the United States Fidelity & Guaranty Co., of Baltimore. The principal point around which the legal battle raged for months was whether a person can contract sarcoma, a form of cancer, from injuries received. The decision is said to be the first of the kind to be rendered on the main point involved, according to lawyers. Sencindiver was manager of the Win- chester Milling Co.’s plant, and in stepping on a board from a platform to a freight car he fell, striking his side. ‘He suffered severe pains and was operated upon six months later for cancer. He lived fifteen months after the operation. Payment of the death claim was refused on the grounds that he died of a disease and not from an accident.

P.). A riot call to the adjutant general at Raleigh was issued here tonight as crowds searching for the attacker of a young white girl here Tuesday grew more menacing. It is feared by sheriff's deputies that the mob, infuriated at its failure to locate Broadus Miller, negro- charged with the crime, may seek ven- geance upon some of the negroes who have been arrested on suspicion. Raleigh, N. C., June 23 (By A. P.).— Company G, 109th Cavalry, tonight waa ordered to proceed to Morganton at once by Adjt. Gen. J. Van B. Metts, commander of the North Carolina Na- tional Guard. “The situation is not considered seri- ous enough for a riot call, I am in- formed,” Adjt. Gen. Metts told the As- sociated Press, “but it is a precaution- ary move.” The Cavalry company left for Mor- ganton soon after orders were received from Gen. Metts. Game Keepers Fired First, Asserts Warden Norfolk, Va., June 23 (By A. P.).— Testifying for the defense today at the trial of Game Warden A. Floyd Mer« cer, charged with Killing J. Lee Water- field, game keeper at Back Bay, Feb« ruary 4, Game Warden W. L. Birsch testified that the shooting was started by Waterfield and J. L. Bonney, another game keeper, who were killed when the fire was returned. The wardens, he as- serted, did not fire until they had first been fired upon twice. Birsch said he dropped to the ground at the first shot and fired twice in reply. The wardens were attempting to are rest Waterfield and Bonney on charges of hunting out of season. The shoot- ing occurred after sundown. The prose- cution rested today after hearing sev- eral witnesses, who gave circumstantial evidence. Lonnie Waterfield, son of the slain man, testified his father and Bon- ney did no shooting. i | 1 Outstanding Service— A DEPOSIT INCREASE OF $1,750,000 FEDERAL-AMERICAN NATIONAL BANK Outstanding Growth . ee eo ——. ‘ EE LT Ea mm mw mw re rr ree ee eee EE oooeEOEOEOEeVnvv Automobiles Available at Bluemont for Delightful Side Ji Trips to Bear Den Park, Mt.

PROPOSAL IS BELIEVED WO REMOVE OBJECTIONS Permanent Station at Gravelly Point Would Be Devel- oped Meanwhile.

Therefore, those in charge of the airport project are going ahead on the theory that Bolling Field will be used as a tem- fary landing place, and that Gravelly Pol _ will be developed as a permanent onthe stand which F. Trubee Davison, in charge of aeronautics, and Edward P. Warner, Aasistant Secretary of the Navy, in charge of aviation, who have discour- aged to the fullest degree the use of Bolling Field, will take toward the com- promise is not known. However, it is explained that the provision of equip- ment by the District will remove the chief objection. The hangar which the District will provide, however, will not be on Boll- ing Field. And in this respect another strong objection will be removed. It can be easily and conveniently located at one of several points along the border of the field, it is said. How Plan Would Work. Under this arrangement this peculiar situation will be created. The planes will land on Bolling Field and taxi off the Government property for the stop. Then they will go out on the field and take off. In this way they will cause the least possible disturbance to their Army and Navy neighbors, who con- versely will feel the least possible em- barrassment by their presence. it has already been clearly indicatd that the Army and Navy air services desire to associate with commercial aviation as little as possible. According to Lieut. Donald Duke, of the Army Air Corps, who is working with Maj. W. E. R. Covell in the matter of providing a temporary and perma- nent airport, the necessary equipment could be erected at a cost of about $35,- 000. With this amount, it is said, the hangar could be built, a raachine shop and office could be erected, electric lights and all necessary improvements could be installed, the hangar top could bé lighted, and the powerful flood light necessary to illuminate the field could be erected on the top of the hangar. That, he explained, would be about all that would be needed. New Site Suggested. Meanwhile, the special airport com- mittee of the Chamber of Commerce, at @ meeting yesterday, presented another attractive site for a temporary landing field which has so far been overlooked. This site is bound by Anacostia River on the east, Benning road on the north, by approximately Twenty-first street northeast on the west, and on the south by a sparsely developed section. Lieut. Duke said yesterday that an effort would be made today to have Col. Lindbergh inspect the prospective sites for an airport. An effort was . made yesterday, but no definite, as- surance was given that Col. Lindbergh would make the inspection. Since Col. Lindbergh’s time has become highly important and is pretty well taken up, the chances were regarded as slight. The committee of the Chamber of Commerce, which is proceeding earnest- ly with the matter of a temporary site, considers the new site something of a find. It would be composed of & por- tion of Anacostia Park and adjoining privately owned property and would be of ample size, perhaps 200 acres in ex- tent, it is said. It would require some improvement and grading, the instal- \ietion of a. whole system of lights and he building of hangars, office and the ike. Report to Trade Groups. The committee will meet again Mon- day at 3 o’clock. Meanwhile informa- tion regarding the cost of improving the site will be. obtained and will be presented at the meeting. The whole matter of a temporary and permanent airport will be brought before a joint meeting of representa- tives of the Chamber of Commerce, the Board of Trade, the Merchants and Manufacturers Association and the City Club at 12:30 o’clock Tuesday at the City Club. Maj. Covell will present his report, and the committee of the Chamber of Commerce its recommendations at the meeting. There will be addresses by Assistent Secretary of War Davison, William P. MacCracken, jr., Assistant Secretary of Commerce, in charge of eeronautics; W. Irgng Glover, Second Assistant Postmaster General, and Lieut. Col. U. S. Grant 3d, executive oficer.of the National Capital Park and Planning Commission. The meeting of the committee of the Chamber of Commerce was at- tended yesterday by Jerome Fanciulll, chairman; Maj. Gen. Anton Stephan, Merritt O. Chance and Dorsey W. Hyde, jr.. secretary of the chamber. Police Seek Woman Missing From Hospital --Eluding physicians and nurses, Mrs. - ‘Prances J.

ADVISORY GROUP 10 HELP Secre- “ID ol PROTEGT DISTRIGT TREES | Col. Grant Explains Plan in Reply to Protest of Fine Arts Commission. WANTS PROPER SOLUTION District officiale and the recently formed special advisory committee on trees will cooperate with the National Capital Park and Planning Commission in its effort to safeguard the city’s tree life. Answering the protest of the com- mission of fine arts regarding destruc- tion of trees in connection with street widening, Lieut. Col. U. S. Grant $Srd, executive.officer of the park and plan- ning commission, yesterday informed President Charles Moore, of the fine arte group, of his plans as follows: “In the first place, I have organized a special advisory committee, which contains experts appointed by the Secretary of Agriculture, as well as Mr. Lanham, superintendent of trees and parking of the District of Columbia, representatives of the American Horti- cultural Society, representatives of the Office of Public Buildings and Public Parks, and with Dr. Merriam as chair- man. I believe that the united opinion of such a committee will be much more useful than any recommendation. that one or two experts from some one de- partment not especially concerned un- der existing law could have. Mr. Lanham has already taken up with the committee the difficulties he, is facing and they are receiving con- sideration. Whatever expert opinion is. ultimately given will come with the, cooperation and at the request of the municipal authorities and not as an extraneous attack upon them; there seems to be reason, therefore, for hoping that it wlil receive consideration. “Another step taken is the develop-§ § ment.of a plan for a system of thor- oughfares through the District of Co- lumbia adequate to take care of the traffic. This study reached the cul- mination’ of its preliminary stage last Friday, when it was reported to the National Capital Park and Planning Commission. The report then made includes a systematic and logical pro- gram for what street widening is or will soon become necessary, with special consideration as to how this may be done without ummnecessary or a too- extensive simyltaneous destruction of trees. As the commission js careful not to make any recommendation without careful study and mature consideration, the recommendations made by the re- port have been held over pending per- sonal inspection and investigation by the commission and the results of a traffic court now being made by the Director of Traffic ategthe request of the commission. It may be confident- ly expected that future street widen- ing will not be asked of Congress with- out there being a well-thought-out program, based upon a broader knowl- edge and analysis of facts than. has heretofore been available. “I trust that the foregoing will suf- ficiently reassure you as to the interest I take in this matter and the fact that steps were taken some months ago which will lead to a sensible and prop- er solution of the problem. I believe that the action already initiated will lead to the best solution of the prob- lem, in conformity with the interests of the National Capital and its inhabi- tants at large.” HUGE LOSSES LAID TO INEFFICIENT EYES Optician Tels Kiwanis Primi- tive Organs Need Training for Modern Use. Lack of visual efficiency has cost the country $130,000,000, as well as tremen- dous logses in man power, morality and morale, Dr. A. M. Skeffington, national cliniclan for the American Optometric Society, yesterday told the members of the Washington Kiwanis Club holding @ luncheon meeting in the Washing- ton Hotel.

EXPERTS 10 CONTINUE SCHOOL INVESTIGATION Vacation Is No Interruption to Efficiency Survey, Rapp Declares. Ciosing of schools for the summer vacation period will in no way affect the progress of the survey into school efficiency: being conducted by experts of the Bureau of Efficiency, Herbert Rapp, who has been directing the in- vestigation since its inception, declared yesterday. As the administrative offices will re- main open all summer, and vacation classes will be conducted from July 5 to August 15, the investigators will not be restricted in their activities, it was pointed out. Although a first-hand study of class- room conditiong begun by bureau ex- perts is not yet completed, much of the summer will be taken up in analyzing and tabulating material already ac- cumulated, Mr. Rapp said, . He pre- dicted that the investigation will con- tinue far into the fall. Land Condemnation Change Suggested The Bureau of Efficiency yesterday submitted to the Commissioners a re- port containing recommendations for new procedure in the condemnation of land to open up new etreets. Atten- tion was called to the fact that it is impossible to serve notice, even by pub- lication, On all persons affected by con- demnation of property, especially those indirectly concerned. It was suggested that the Commissioners ask Congress to amend the law so that, after a verdict has been afvarded, persons may file ob- jection with a possibility of having the award reconsidered.: HIGH SCHOOL CADETS TO CAMP JULY 2 T0 30 200 Will Take Military Train- ing and Recreation at Congress Heights.

LOST IN 69TH CONGRESS Representatives of life, fire, liability, accident and marine insurance. groups conferred yesterday in the board room of the District Building, with Thomas M. Baldwin, jr., superintendent of in- surance, and practical agreement was reached on the terms of a bill for a general insurance code to be submitted to Congress The basis for the discussion was the code worked out in 1926 for the last Congress. When the bill was intro- duced objections were made before committees. of Congress by the fire in- surance interests. The bill was re- turned to Baldwin with an order of Former Commissioner Frederick A. Fen- ning that an agreement with the in- surance men be sought. Discussions which followed were so long drawn out that the life insur- ance companies asked to have the parts of the code affecting them incor- porated in a separate bill so that it could reach a vote in Congress, whether or not controversy should defeat the general code. Neither bill passed the last Con- gress, however, and now they have again been combined into one meas- ure. The insurance men _ yesterday agreed to every provision of Baldwin’s new bill except two minor sections, upon which subsequent conferences will be held. The bill will be mimeographed for general submission to all interested persons, following which Baldwin will recommend it to the commissioners for submission to Congress.

THINKS REVENUE NOT EQUAL TO EXPENSES Flaherty Believes Stated Pe- riod Will Indicate Conditions Faced by Company. Ralph B. Fleharty, people's counsel, yesterday submitted to the Public Util- ities Commission a recommendation that the proposed increase in bus fare charged by the Washington Rapid Transit Co. be limited to a period of six months and that the rate ques- tion be then reopened., His memoran- dum said, in part: “It is, of course, perfectly apparent from the record that the operating revenues received by the applicant from its buses are not equivalent to operating expenses. “It seems to me that the quetsion arises whether or not the public should be called upon to bear the loss that this utility is sustaining, or whether the company should not be required to make a more definite showing that those losses are not due to conditions which it controls and should remedy. Time Limit Suggested. “Assuming that the commission ar- rives at the conclusion that the present condition is due to no fault on the part of the company that can not be cor- rected, but is due to lack of patronage, it is suggested that any order allowing an increase of fare should be effective Only for a definite and comparatively short period of time, say six months. “This suggestion is made with the idea that at the end of the six months the company be required to make a full showing as to its operation under a straight 10-cent fare, as to whether or not it has fulfilled its promise made through its president, of better and more frequent service, ieaving it open so that if it should be found at that time that the increase in fare has merely gone to decrease the deficit and has been of no benefit to the public, the order be rescinded and the com- pany be réquired to operate on the present basis.” Transit Company Is Sued by Motorist The Washington Rapid Transit Co. was sued yesterday in Circuit Court for $10,000 for an alleged assault and bat- tery which a motorist said was com- mitted upon him by one of a bus crew when he attempted to find out the why and wherefore of a collision between the bus and his automobile. The plaintif® is Maxwell E. Roberts, 1400 Fairmont street northwest, who says that on December 24 he was knocked unconscious on Sixteenth street by his alleged assailant and tak- en to the Emergency Hospital.
