TARIFF CLASH RESUMED oHARPLY AT HAVANA atoll Vetoed by Hughes in Reply to Attack. REAL PROBLEM SEEN BY DR. PUEYRREDON Regulating Status of the Pan- American Union by Con- vention Fought. Havana, Feb. 6 (A.P.).—The Ameri- can tariff brought the United States and Argentina once again sharply up against each other today. In a closed subcommittee meeting, called to draft a preamble to the Pan- Americar. Union convention, Chairman Hughes, of the American delegation, is understood to have declared that in his opinion it would be utterly impos- sible to include in this document any direct reference to the advis.bility of reducing tariff barriers to international commerce und much less to make the attainment of this reduction one of the main objects of the Pan-American It is moved and seconded that the | Union, as had been insisted upon by Senate resolution asking why Uncle | Ambassador Honorio Pueyrredon of Ar- Sam is in Nicaragua be referred to | Sentina. the Fourth Grade.

Chief among these concrete prob- lems, Dr. Pueyrredon maintained, is the tendency to establish prohibitive tar- iffs in inter-American commerce. Sovereignty Right, Says Hughes. In today’s meeting it is understood that Mr. Hughes reminded Dr. Pueyrre- don of the latter’s stand on Saturday in favor of the absolute sovereignty of nations and declared that the right of assessing tariffs and taxes was the very fundamental precept of sovereignty. In addition, the American chairman is said to have asserted that if the right of the Pan-American Union to meddle in tariff matters were included in the preamble to a convention, this instru- ment would stand very little chance of being ratified not only by the Ameri- can Senate but probably by the legis- lature of almost all American Repub- lics, including that of Argentina. Tariff matters, for the very reason that they affect so deeply the sovereign powers of nations, Mr. Hughes is un- derstood to have told the subcommit- | tee, should better be left to bilatera] negotiation between countries. Blanket provisions in collective treaties would defeat their very purpose because they never would be ratified. After the meeting Ambassador Pueyr- redon said he still maintained his posi- tion in the belief that specific refer- ence to tariff matters would have to be included in the preamble. He added that he would continue to insist upon that point in future meetings, the next one of which is scheduled for Wednes- day morning. Status of Union Debated. The question whether the Pan-Amer- ican Conference should conclude a con- vention toregulate the status of the Pan- American Union, or whether the union should continue to exist, as heretofore. by virtue of unanimous resolutions of the conference, came again today before the committee on Pan-American Union affairs. This question, it was supposed, had been disposed of a week ago. After two hours’ discussion today it was referred to the subcommittee which is preparing a preamble to the conven- tion, Charles .£. Hughes, head of the American delegation: Honorio Pueyrre- don, Argentina; Gustavo Guerrero, of Salvador, and Judge Urbina, of Mexico. took part in the debate. One of the first acts of the com- mittee was to agree to the motion of Dr. Pueyrredon that any republic could sever its relations with the Pan- American Union at any time, but it must pay its share of the expenses for the current fiscal year. Convention Voted Befor.e At a previous meeting the committee had voted unanimdéusly in favor of a objects and powers of the Pan- American Union. Today, however, it was pointed out that the convention would not become effective until all of the 21 republics had ratified the agree- ment. Several speakers pointed out the likelihood of some powers refusing ratification, in which case the union would cease to exist. Senor Guerrero, of Salvador, said it was certain that at least one country would not be able to agree to the con- vention. He suggested that the con- vention stipulate that it should become effective upon ratification by a major- ity of the American Governments. Charles E. Hughes contended that this would be impossible, since no pro- vision on the convention could become binding on any government without its express ratification. In view of the dif- ficulties which confronted the applica- tion of a collective instrument, with | the dangers implied in the necessity of 21 ratifications, he favored the Pan- American Union working on the basis of unanimous resolutions adgpted by the Pan-American Conference, as had netic @ remsietion. Mr. Hughes a ution, argued @ more elastic arrangement would be | \OCRTINGER-ON ‘PAGE 3, COLUMN 6.

Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Feb. 6 (A.P.). After circling lazily in a great white cloud bank at an elevation of 6,000 feet, killing time, so that he might ar- rive at Port-au-Prince on the exact minute, Col. Charles.A, Lindbergh, fly- ing from Santo Domingo, made a dra- matic appearance over the flying field here today. The Spirit of St. Louls had been sighted at 1:30 about 20 miles to the north and then was lost to view. The flier made a long detour and sud- denly approached the city from the south at an elevation of 500 feet. The plane then circled to the east, straightened out and came on the field like ap arrow to a safe, easy landing, controlled with consummate, breath- taking skill. It rounded and came to a full stop exactly at 2 o’clock, the hour Lindbergh haid said he would be here. In the aerial trip from Santo Do- where he took off at 11 a. m., Lindbergh passed over and was report- ed from Sartiago de Los Caballeros and Cape Haitien. A crowd of 6,000 spectators in holli- day mood and attire had waited anx- fously here during the last half hour, when suddenly the Spirit of St. Louls, with its famed pilot, shot into view | from an unexpected quarter.

The Hoover forces will not only enter Ohio in a bitter fight against Senator Frank B. Willis, but will engage in presidential primaries in eight other States in the fight for convention dele- gates.

Perhaps more important than merely garnering delegates is the question of Hoover prestige the country over, it was admitted. ‘ OtherState primaries which will wit- ness Hoover forces in battle array, it is announced, are those of New Har shire on March 13, Michigan ou 7 New Jersey on May 15, Oregon on May 18 and West Virginia on May 29, _ Ohio is the only “favorite son” State in which the Hoover forces intend to do battle, according to those close te the Secretary.

Two witmesses were examined— Sheldon Clarke, of Chicago, vice pres- ident of the Sinclair Refining Co., and H. L.

PRESIDENT FORWARDS DOCUMENT TO SENATE Paris Marks 150th Anniver- sary of First French-Amer- ican Alliance in 1778. (Associated Press.) A new arbitration treaty with France, signed yesterday under unusual cir- cumstances—the a ta of motion picture cameras and in the presence of a score of newspaper men—marked, in the words of the French Ambassador, Paul Claudel, the start of a new idea, the outlavry of war. With the Undersecretary of State, Robert E. Olds, he signed and sealed the two exchange copies of the new treaty. supplanting one negotiated in 1908 by Secretary Elihu Root and Jules J. Jusserand, which expires February 27. ‘The French Ambassador remarked that it was with deep emotion that he affixed his seal on the 150th anniver- sary of the signing in Paris of the first treaty of alliance between America and France. The treaty for the outlawing of war signed yesterday carries out a specifically American idea, which M. Claudel char- acterized as being both great and prac- tical and for which he predicted a great future. While the text of the agreement was not disclosed, a declara- tion for the outlawry of war is known to be contained in {ts preamble. The treaty will be a model for similar agree- ments which the United States intends to negotiate with other powers. President Coolidge transmitted the new French treaty to the Senate with- out dlay. After it has been consid- ered in executive session its terms will be made public. France Marks Friendship.

The United States is the most popu- lar country with Ge ny just now declared Dr. Emil Ludwig, the dis- tinguished historian and biographer who lectured yesterday afternoon be- fore a capacity audience in the New Masonic Auditorium. Dr. Ludwig gave three reasons for the present popularity, first, that America is far away from Germany; secondly that the thought of the League of Nations, the salvation of Europe originated in Europe and last because of the Dawes plan which he called the first step of Germany to- wards rehabilitation. He said the people there admired Vice President Dawes and Owen Young greatly. because of first by a luncheon given to Ambassa- dor Herrick by Foreign Minister Briand, and then at a dinner given by the France-America committee this eve- ning. M. Briand and his guests confined their celebration to an exchange of remarks on the history of Franco- American relations since Benjamin Franklin and Charles Gravier Vergennes signed the famous document which allied the two counties, The dinner was more fruitful of talk. Nelson , Cromwell, representing the American committee for Franco-Ameri- can friendship, the Dude de Broglie, and Maurice Bokanowski, minister of commerce, made speeches. A letter of regret from Ambassador Herrick be- cause of his inability to attend was read. this plan and that young 8. Parker Gilbert was popular despite the fact that he was in a sense the overseer to see that they paid their debts. Gilbert is trying to end his mission as soon as possible he pointed out and received much praise when he advised the Germans to economiz so they could all the sooner pay their debts. Germany .is learning political respon- sibility, continued the speaker, and also the value of centralization. He told of the empty petty thrones throughout Germany and said that there were about 100 heirs apparent mourning their losses. But the people had- found that a more cen- tralized government would make it easier for them to pay their debts. He reminded his listeners that there were eighteen kingdoms and two republics only when the war began and now there are eleven republics in Europe and Europe had become a republic in all but actuality. The youth of Europe according to this speaker are beginning to see that heroic deeds can be ac- complished without wars and greatly long to emulate Lindbergh and Edison, the heroes of peace. Furthermore, Dr. Ludwig asserted that there are no symptoms of the re- turn. of the monarchy to Germany. Since Hindenburg was made president, the republic has been much safer, he declared. Sports champions are more popular now than soldiers in Germany and the young people are eagerly adopt- ing all forms of sports. Message Sent to America. M. Bokanowski declared that years have not weakened in the French soul nor people their ardor for the same ideals that.motivated them 150 years ago.” The diners adopted a message, which was signed by Marshal Joffre, Louis Delsol, president of the Paris Munici- pal Council; Gabriel Hanotaux, the Duke de Broglie, and the Marquls de Chambrun, a descendant of Lafayette, for transimission to a similar meeting at the Waldorf Hotel in New York. The message said: “Assembled at the Maison Amertcaine to celebrate the anniversary of our alli- ance, the French, faithful to thetr friendships, send to their comrades in arms in good times as well as evil, as- in the soul of the American)! That the German princes broughf on the republic through theif own con- |duct and surrender without trying to "150) fight was another opinion of Dr. Lud- wig, following the example he said of the fugitive war lord. “Germany was in no way prepared for a republic,” he continued, “while no one misses the kaiser in Berlin, the smallest princes are missed in the other towns where their little courte were closer to the people. “In the republic today Bismarck is the subject of much discussion, The general impression is that he would have avoided the misfortunes of 1914- 1918. The people feel that Bismarck would have made an alliance with Eng- land. Wilhelm refused it; that Bis- marck would have made treaties where Wilhelm made speeches, surance of their unalterable attach- ment and their cordial amity. All honor to Franco-American friendship.” | H. M. BEADLE, VETERAN “The German workingmen are all for peace and against a new war. In the next war, which I do not expect in Furope for some years, I believe Ger- many would remain a neutral. The reasons for this are threefold; there ts no royal power to declare war; the greatest percentage of the working classes are pacifists and Germans be- lleve they would be better off remain- Ing neutral.” PAINTER, DEAD AT a Funeral of Retired Editor of!

The bill of Representative Richard J. Welch, of California, which pro- vides for increased compensation for Government attorneys and other legal employes, was indorsed with the pro- vision that it be amended as not to re- duce any employe in grade or salary, by the Federal Bar Association last night meeting in the Interior Building auditorium. Charles W. Needham, of the Inter- state Commerce Commission, in an ad- dress analyzing the bill, declared it would afford attorneys an oppotunity for a career in the Government service, do away with the large “turnover” the Government experiences in pofessional personnel and dispense with the Gov- ernment’s trouble of educating an at- torney to a high grade of work only to have him lost to the Government service when he gains his education because of a Jow salary. Charles W. Freeman, president of the association, was chairman.

MANOR PARK OPPOSES “CIPPER REFUSE PL Bill Proposing Garbage Incin- eration Plants Disapproved in Resolution. LADUE ADDRESSES GROUP Voicing its opposition to the proposal to establish three garbage incineration plants as provided in a bill introduced in the Senate by Senator Arthur Cap- per, chairman of the Senate District committee, the: Manor Park Citizens Association last night adopted a reso- lution disapproving; the plan, at a meeting held at the Whittier School. Speakers urging the action were A. L. Barrows, of the Takoma Park citizens group, and F. D. Morris and P. F. Joy, of the Chillum Heights Citizens Asso- clation. Col. William B. Ladue, engineer com- missioner of the District, told of the plans for the betterment of the city at large and mentioning benefits ac- cruing to the Manor Park section under the Commissioners’ program. A long list of improvements awalts execution, he said, but it is not deemed wise to ask for an increased budget under the pres- ent system, which would increase the taxpayer's burden. The Commisioners have a high regard for the opinions of the citizens’ associ- ations, Ladue said, and depend upon them for the local point of view in all matters. It is their desire to provide the best government possible and give the tax payers the most complete value for their money, he said. Authority for the establishment of a pay transfer system at Georgia avenue and Kennedy streets was asked of the Public Utilities Commission in a reso- lution adopted earlier in the evening. Another resolution expressed the appro- val of the association to a proposal to establish a fire engine house on Georgia avenue north of Walter Reed Hospital. Cathedral Heights Opposes Car Merger The Cathedral Helghts Citizens As- sociation last night adopted a resolu- tion declaring its opposition to a street car merger plan favored by the public utillites committee of the Federation of Citizens Associations. Reasons for its action were stated in the resolution as being that a guaran- teed rate of return would destroy ini- tiative and ‘result in higher fares caused by rising overhead costs of main- tenance; confusion resulting from the adoption of the proposed sliding scale of fare rates and the failure of the federation’s committee to provide any guarantee of the standards of service to be maintained under the merger plan. Negro History Week Celebrations Begin Negro History week celebrations were begun last night under auspices of the community centers of divisions 10 to 13 of putlic schools at the Birney cen- ter in Anacostia, the principal speaker being Dr. Charles H.

He traced development of various African cultures and civilizations of ages past and made comparison of the negro in his native habitat with the American negro as h# Is in the modern world, Edward B. Saunders recited Dyunbar’s “he Letter,” and several other poems by the negro author. A program of spirituals was rendered by the Birney Choral Society under direction of Edna Gordon Dockings, and E. N. Broadnax, soloist. W. H. Lewis, president of the Garfield Civic Association, invited the center to attend the full series of meet- ings, especially that at Francis Junior High School tonight, where “Partiotism and the Negro” will be the topic. H. R Queenan presided, and W. J. Banks was ruaster of ceremonies. Hold-up Confession Clears Man in Jail George Edward Roulhac, colored, ac- cording to the police yesterday con- fessed to a hold-up for which John Butler, also colored, was convicted and sentenced to serve ten years. Roulhac said that he was in court when Butler was tried and was identified by Phillip Tippin, a grocer, of 4601 Hunt place northeast, as the man who robbed him on April 7, 1927. In the confession which police say they obtained from the man, he also admits committing seven other rob- beries. Roulhac was arrested by Detectives S. R. McKee, Guy Roane and R. L. Manning on information furnished by Martin Luther Roulhac, his brother, who is being held in connection with the murder of Wesley Gill, colored. He is being held at the Eleventh Precinct Station, MINE STRIKE RIOTS OCCUR IN 2 STATES CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. ence whether the miners or the op- erators are to blame.” Federal Judge Benson W. Hough said today that at a conference of mine union officials and operators with him last Saturday, both sides had disavowed responsibility for the disturbances which have been going on about the Florence mine for several days, and attributed the agitation to commun- ists. Adjt. Gen. Henderson said his re- ports from Lieut. Col. Don L. Caldwell bore out this contention. Both Gov. Donahey and Adjt. Gen. Henderson made it plain that they would not order out troops unless the disturbances are renewed. Judge Hough said he considered the attacks on the mine company’s houses last night a violation of his injunction against molesting the company in its efforts,to operate on a nonunion basis. The Florence mine is owned by the Youghiogheny & Ohio Coal Co.

Prior to passage of the motion the association went on record in opposi- tion to proposals to double track the street from Fourteenth street east to Third.

The committee on streets was assigned to investigate a proposal! that the District government beautify parking in the center of Fourteenth street extended. Lengthy discussion of the District franchise problem resulted in the as- sociation’s indorsement of the minority report of the Federation of Citizens Associations’ committee on suffrage.

Early and favorable action by the Senate on the House bill providing for the return of alien property and the settlement of American and German war claims was forecast yesterday by Chairman Smoot of the Senate finance committee after that group had ordered the bill favorably reported with only one dissenting vote. The provisions of the House measure were approved by the committee with minor changes. The compromise agreed to by American and German claimants whereby 80 per cent of the alien property would be returned forth- with was adopted by the Senate as provided by the House. The Senate committee provided also for making $40,000,000 immediately available for the payment of American claims, An- other amendment would deny the pay- ment of any claims of the former ruling family of Germany.

Wi CITES TAMMANY HALL CONNECTION AS REASON savannah Collector Says He Does Not Yet Know Which Ticket He Will Back. Southern Democrats are ready to de- clare war against their Eastern friends, M G. Dunning, collector of customs at Savannah, Ga., and prominent in the Ku Klux Klan, declared in a statement here yesterday. Dunning went into West Virginia four years ago after John W Davis, the Democratic nominee, had cenounced the klan, and assisted in turning that State against him. Presi- dent Coolidge appointed him to his present post. “Whether or not it is realized by our Eastern friends, the Solid South is ready to break precedents and demand recog- nition in the councils of both parties,” he declared, Asserting that he had not yet de- cided whether he would support the Democratic or Republican nominee this year, he made known that he did not subscribe to the “Houston and Har- mony” appeal, Compares McAdoo and Smith, “McAdoo very gracefully retired from ; the race in order to give Gov, Al Smith an opportunity to do likewise, but Smith didn’t want harmony that bad, and he’s still in the ring,” Dunning said. : a “Harmony on that basis would be a defeat for Mr. McAdoo’s friends, not a compromise. “The solid South went to the New York convention in 1924 with one idea~ that of nominating a man of its choice, a man they felt would represent this Nation creditably in the White House. As Democrats we had just as much right to this opinion as our New York friends had to theirs. Why should we now be read out of the party because of the fact that we can not get har- mony wuniess we support Tammany’'s product? “I say harmony at this priee is far too costly. Must we pay tribute to Tammany every four years in order to remain in the Democratic party? “The solid South never will stand |religion, not mainly on account of the 'fact that he is wet, but primarily because he was the center of a heated controversy between the Jeffersonian Democrats and Tammany Hall four years ago—that this controversy still rages, and that Smith is not to set asice his personal ambitions in Democratic party. Many Other Good Men. “There are many other good men in the party whom both factions could support without encroaching on the rights of each other. “Why did I support President Cool- idge in 1924, after having participated so prominently in the Democratic con- vention? ‘There was a fight injected by Tammany Hall forces in seeking to put an antiklan plank in the party platform. The sound-thinking dele- gates, resenting this intolerance, killed 'the motion. Therefore the platform came out of the convention with no reference to religious or fraternal organizations in any way. “The Democratic nominees did not live up to this platform in their cam- paign. Therefore, most of us realized that an administration which did not live up to its party platform tn full was unsafe and unsound. “I do not yet know whether I shall support the Democratic or Republican ticket this year. I intend to follow principles, not labels. I am primarily an American, and think responsibility to government should have precedence over party.

The quest for second choice is dis- dained by Hoover and it will be first choice or nothing, it is ennounced, The information that the move had been madé at Columbus led to the ad- mission in Washington last night that Hoover will not rebuff his Ohlo sup- porters. Not only that, he will invade nine out of the seventeen States hold- ing primaries between March 13 and June 5. The decision of Secretary Hoover to fight in the open for delegates is a re- versal of .the campaign policy which held up to a few days ago. Last week it was said that Hoover was content to bask in the general support which he was receiving in many parts of the country and leave his campaign in the hands of his friends. But the Ohlo situation developed rapidly. Supporters Urged Contest. Sharp words began to fly and the light of battle came into the eye of some of the chief Hoover advisers here. Among these were Dr. Hubert Work, Secretary of the Interior: John T Adams, former chairman of the Repub- lican National committee; C..H. Hous- ton, former national committeeman from Tennessee; George B. Lockwood, former Secretary of the national com- mittee, Walter F. Brown, assistant Sec- retary of Commerce; Senator Walter EF. Ldge, of New Jersey, and Senator George H. Moses, of New Hampshire, It was realized by at least some of these advisers that the Hoover boom, which began some months ago and rolled onward piling up sentiment, had begun to sag with the arrival of the Lowden candidacy and the activities of favorite sons in many States. That the Hoover prestige already génerated woul. suffer if the Secretary refused te answer the Willis defi in Ohio was ar- fuecd, Consistent with the new development here keener Hoover activity is reported in many quarters. Hoover supporters here confirmed that the opening of | Lowden headquarters in New York City willing | order to have real harmony in the} had ted to the formation of the York State Hoover-for-President com- mittee with offices at 11 West Forty second street. It was said that a re- port received from Detroit had ap- prised that “Michigan vw all for Hoover,” with Henry Ford. James Cousins, Gov. Greene and National Committeeman James E. Greene and many others of prominence in the fleld Favorable reports were claimed from Maine, New Hampshire and Rhode Is- land, the latter having started a Hoover movement at Providence yesterday.

REVISION UPWARD MADE (Associated Press.) Plans for the Kansas City Republican national convention are passing through a stage that is not unfamillar to politiclans who have had experience with convention arrangements in the past. When a convention city is lected, it is expected by the party managers to go the whole length in turning over to the national committee what it has in hotel space and other convention facilities. Very frequently local inter- ests do not fully realize the pressure that will be placed upon them in this regard, and when the accommodations offered do not meet the expectations of the party arrangements committee, a threat is made to take the convention elsewhere. Then there is a revision upward all along the line, the arrange- ments committee, is pacified and the arrangements proceed, Talk of taking the Republican con- vention away from Kansas City has been very nebulous, and it apparently disappeared entirely yesterday when the Kansas City housing committee an- nounced it would have 4,000 hotel Chairman Butler and other national committee officials im- mediately announced that the incident was closed.

WILLIAMS LAUDS RECORD (Associated Press.) ; Frank O. Lowden was igdorsed yester- day for the Republican nomination by Republican members of the House from Illinois districts outside of the City of Chicago. The Wlinois members participating in the conference announced that they “would assist in the election of dele- gates favorable to Lowden in thelr ¢e- spective districts.” Representative Williams, one of the veteran down-staters in the delegation, in a statement said that the former Illinois governor was considered the “best equipped .nd most available can- didate now being discusged” for the Republican nomination. Williams also said that cowden’s “constructive record” as governor, to- gether with his experience as a member of Congress, “eminently qualified him for the Presidency.” “He is strong in the Republican States of the Mississippi Valley and has the confidence of all classes of our people,” he added. “He is an eminent lawyer, a successful farmer and busi- ness man, and if nominated will be tri- umphantly elected and will make a great President.” New York Navy Yard Command to Shift Appointment of Capt.

A HOT TIME COMING, the effect that Rational convention may Rumors to the Republican be taken away from Kansas City on the ground that the metropolis trade policies, | serve | control and agriculture, ae the corn belt is unable to furnish sufficient hotel accommodations are most distressing. The world must hold its breath in anticipation bf the meeting this week in Washington, when the situation will be threshed out. *. Cleveland, it is said, has renewed its offer to accommodate the convention, offering the financial inducements that were laid before the national committee during the convention city meetings. Its convention hall satisfac- torily housed the 1924 convention. Atlantic City, too, has jumped into the breach with an and no fewer than 10,000 hotel rooms. for the convention, according to Charles D. Hilles, are 3,000 rooms for delegates, nates and newspaper men. Kansas City decries the libel foisted upen‘it by uninformed individuals. It is unthinkable that a city of close to 400,000 population should be unable to assimilate an additional temporary population of 15,000 or 26,000. Kansas City, so it says, will make good. livery one will have a bed upon which to sleep and alter- an oOc- casional change of attire. Strategical strings to embarrass the enemy? Cleveland, it* will be remembered, although *‘bathed in the cooling breezes of Lake Erie,”’ ‘was about as hot as the legendary hottest of all places during those June days of 1924. as City undoubtedly will be hotter still.

The National Association of Manufacturers chosen sixteen industrial and business | leaders'to make the final draft of a platform , tions, | ization, relating to American industry that will be sub- mitted to both the Republican and Democratic conventions next summer, A general commit- tee of 151 prominent men throughout the United States had previously selected fourteen problems that confront industry in general. They are: Government and business, taxation, regulation of combinations, employment rela- transportation, immigration and natural- international relations, tariff, foreign merchant marine, Federal Ke- waterways development, flood Out of these fourteen planks the platform of American business will be framed, In many respects the undertaking is highly creditable, Commerce and industry is of vital importance to every individual American, The stand the national political parties adopt to- ward business, their attitude toward the prob- lems upon which the business and commer- cial Jeaders demand enlightenment, wil] have svstem, | an importaut bearing upon their success in the | to Minimum requirements problems, and the parties will have to pay more | reflect the Government ' good as a slogan, | analysis, forthcoming campaign. demand Business has the right expression of policy toward the than passing attention to the demand, The platform serves to impress the extent in which business is linked to government, In fourteen specific branches of activity, and in many others that have overlooked or, for other re&sons, have failed to receive men- tion, the activity of the next administration wil] itself in the world. “Keep out of is Well and When carried to its finai r, the Government can not been business business,’’ howeve be | kept out of business ,, Can it be that invisible powers are pulling | | parties, | ventions. | complish something in focusing public The | epublican party chose it, however, and De- | i.

Both parties are in for a hot time, and they May as well begin at the conventions. MOVING DAY, On May 1 the typical American family-— father, mother, children, dog and canary bird +—pack up their belongings, crowd them into a moving van and change their dence. Again, on October 1, the process is re- péated. Why the American household refuses lo stay fixed has been a source of wonder for fears. Nine times out of ten the new apart- ment is no better than the old. Somctimes it is not as desirable. Nevertheless, the typical - Almerican family moves on October 1, or May 1, or both, and repeats the process year after vear. * Consequently public utility § corporations, place of resi- moving men, and the like have twice-a-year > periods of activity that tax their resources. All ‘except the moving men would like to see the custom discontinued. The American family, however, clings to tradition like an English- | airplane to England, f / London, | volving the Wright and | ' Dian and the economics of the situation not- | trithstanding, continues to move on the Na- | The only obvious solution Jies in spreading out these days, and this is jhat the Chicago Home Economic Council has $8t out to do. -* From its newly opened offices in the Loop district the council has set about the task of egnvincing all landlords, tenants and commer- cfal interests that it is not good businers to date all leases October 1 or May 1. Let leases become effective any month in the year, it pleads, and the semiannual moving days would become history. Thus is offered a happy solu- tion to a pressing problem. Yet most leases pow are dated either May or October 1, and it he be that the American family will insist ‘that the custom be continued. After all, one must keep up with the Joneses, and half the tan in moving lies in doing it when one’s neigh- rs do. ‘ e TRUTH IN FURS. if Unless the members of the fur trade organi- xi ition fail to live up to their own agreement ere is a prospect future buyers may complete reir purchases with safety.

Wright’s act in sending his first where it will be housed in the Science Museum, in South Kensington, may serve to revive the dispute m the Laugley aircratt experiments, It place for the historic Wright plane is in the Smithsonian Institution, which also houses the original Langley ship, Because of the label affixed to the latter; however, Mr. Wright has refused to consign his plane to the institution. Mr. Wright wants his claim to being the first ever to fly clearly established, and he feels that the label on the Langley plane disputes this claim, By this time, however, there no longer is any question in regard to the Wright claim. Whether or not the Langley ship was the first “capable of flight,’ as the Smithsonian label specifies, is questioned, for the proof was ob- tained with a motor of later date, but the fact that the Wrights were the first actually to fly is universally admitted. This year marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of that historic first flight at Kitty Hawk, N. C., and the Senate already has approved a plan to erect upon the site a monument for which appropriations have been recommended by the President, It is to be hoped that the visit of the first Wright plane to England will not be perma- nent. The ship belongs on American soil, and should take its proper place in the Smith- sonian Institution. ‘ LIFE OF SIR THOMAS MORE, In a lecture given recently at the Royal Institution, London, by Dr. R. W. Chambers, professor of English literature at University College, on ‘“‘Some Tudor Biographers,”’ it was shown that Tudor biographers were necessari- ly partisan, owing to the violent revolutions in matters of religion which took place in Tudor. times. The lecturer instanced as “a great and noble document of Protestant biog- | raphy” Foxe’s ‘Acts and Monuments,” gener- ‘ally known as the “Book of Martyrs.” This | book had been advertised with all the re- sources of powerful propaganda, and copies were placed in the churches for all to read as they read their Bibles, and the result was that for many+generations Foxe’s work ex- ercised unparalleled influence both on English religious thought and on the English speech. But its excessive popularity has produced the reaction that might be expected, for it is in danger of passing into that class of book which everybody knows by name and nobody ever reads. | Dr. Chambers also drew attention to a biography, written, as he phrased it, by the “other party,” namely, the ‘“‘Life of Sir Thomas More,”’ by Nicholas Harpsfield, Archdeacon of Canterbury. Save for one copy, not yet com- pleted, lying in a nunnery in Chelsea, London, England possesses no printed copy of this biography, although it can claim to be the earliest in the English language. It exists, however, in many manuscripts, of which the best is in the library of Cambridge University,, England. Another almost equally valuable one was bequeathed to his native town of Colchester by the famous Samuel Harsnett, who went from one bishopric to another and, | with a humility that does not always follow rr ca eal eae ES ey the miter, described himse , of the Confederacy. the Unknown Soldier” | wreaths | recognized ' remedied more generally. | he served, | the unknown soldier of the war | ence, | yard of the has long been felt that the | , ae Tt ray Me eo iene] 2 PM ME A 5 ay 5S app ise act Lae If on 1 his ‘tomb. as “the unworthy Bishop of Chichester, the more unworthy Bishop of Norwich, and the most unworthy Archbishop of York.” ' There is a prospect that an edition of this “Life of More,” made from a collation of all the available manuscripts will be issued by the Early English Text Society at no distant date. More was, perbaps, the’ most interesting of al! the English humanists, and his sudden fall from power and his tragic ending make so universal an appeal, that this forthcoming new authentic volume dealing with his life has already aroused the most eager expecta- tions and is sure of a hearty welcome when it appears, A VISIT TO VENUS. 3 Several weeks ago a group of French scien- tists, including such men as M. of sciences at the Sorbonne, and Gen, Char- bonnier, of the Paris Observatory, met at luncheon in the Cafe de Paris to discuss the possibilities of interplanetary navigation, After a satisfactory repast it was agreed that man might be able to cruise at will through the entire solar system. Upon the development of the newly discovered force, intra-atomic energy, hinges the secret; and to hasten the day when man will be able to*hop into a ma- chine for a week-end jaunt to the moon, the group agreed to offer a prize of 5,000 francs, to be awarded-annually to the individual] who makes the most important discovery along such lines, Possibly Robert Condin, of Miami, whose activity in connection with a proposed trip to Veuus bas occasioned much interest, will capture the first 5,000 frances.

In 1926 workmen digging for the foundation of a Catholic Church near the old meeting house uncovered a rough box in which were the remains of a fully uniformed soldier of the Continental army.

A series of shocking murders has once more turned the entire country’s attention to ade- quate and proper means of dealing with crime. The arguments about capital punishment, pro and con, are rehearsed in the press, from the pulpit and on the platform. A recently pub- lished survey of other countries reveals that a surprising number have abolished the death penalty. No less than thirteen have apparently concluded, for one reason or another, that it is no longer necessary or advisable. They are: Norway, Sweden, Portugal, Netherlands; Aus- tria, Roumania, Latvia, Lithuania, Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Honduras and Uruguay. In Belgium, Denmark and Finland it exists on the statute books but is no longer practiced. In Switzerland, the federal government itself abelished executions; the cantons, however, reserved to themselves the right to dispose of the question as they saw fit. Fifteen have done away with the death penalty and ten still retain it. In Prussia, executions are still provided for by the law, but they are rare accurrences. Italy, which had previously abolished capital punishment, reintroduced it last year, largely | as a result of the repeated attempts upon Mus- solini’s life. In Russia, true to type, capital punishment is not a penalty for murder, but only for political crimes and misdemeanors. The methods of execution vary greatly, and some of them seem antiquated indeed to the American mind. In Russia, the prevailing fashion is to shoot; in Spain, to garrote; France and some of the German states place their faith in the guillotine. Great Britain and the British Dominions, as is well known, hang; in Prussia they take the ax. This latter mode is generally likewise employed by the Chinese. ’ In America, only eight States have abolished the death penalty. Most of the others hang; a few use the electric chair; and one, the } lethal chamber, T ™~ bak) >, BS fai t f 4 : e yee TEP, i am — J a oo ae ? _ 4 3 “8%. + 1 ‘> pa 4 - ‘ Wet @ LS Sie \ % 4 % AS % 9 J ay v ; Ree TTT TER a 2 a ly ee - ~——- —-= | reach u» to the key hole. a bad case of shingles, | the rea) thing, | by Gi \ sa \ \ \ ss Wy Li] Ui) ip I é Wf ; Uff, Hf 5 Yah Hh Nini hy " Harmony, International and Domestic.

Launch- ing of the project depends upon the showing made by the new dirigible, the FR-100. Despite a few sticcessful demon- strations, this type of aircraft has yet t establish a reputation for dependa- bility. Germany was fairly successful with dirigibles before the war, main- taining several long-distance passenger lines in Central Europe. But today the airplane is setting the pace in Europe, where commercial aviation has been so highly developed. Happy Italy. Indianapolis News: American politi- cal bosses should take a course of study in Italy, where Mussolini has reduced the electorate to one political party— which is mostly Mussolini. Take Root, Young Man. Terre Haute Tribune: Everything else being equal, a man has a better chance of branching out if he stays rooted tw one spot. Cross Crossing Cautiously. Philadelphia Record: This season of the year, when the highways them- selves are slippery and otherwise diffi- cult for motor traffic, it is particularly important for motorists to be careful at railroad crossings. Several court de- cisions have recently emphasized the obligations that rest upon the motorist. It is true that the law requires railroad trains to sound their whistles and ring their bells as they approach the cross- ings, but it also requires travelers on the highway to exercise ordinary care in using their senses of sight and hear- ing to prevent collisions. And this ‘further declaration by ‘the United States Supreme Court should always be constantly in the mind of the motor- ist, “The failure of the servants of the (railroad) companies to discharge their duties in this regard is no excuse for the failure of travelers on a highway to discharge theirs.” Attention, Statesmen! Brooklyn Eagle: Statesmanship might take advantage of the ship experiment of Capt. Bush, of the Dora, bound from Havana to Philadelphia. who outlived a storm by pouring 70,000 gallons of mo- lasses, instead of the traditional oil, on the troubled waters. Vinegar would have been utterly useless in such a storm. Justified Theft. Toledo Blade: What about the man who stole milk’to keep his babies alive? Our guess is that the recording angel looked the other way. Brave Fellow. Rochester Democrat and Chronicle: If it is true as intimated that a young mean arrested in Buffalo has contracted a total of nine marriages in the last four or five years, apparently without any divorces entering into the record, he makes Henry VIII and the other notable marrying men of history seem like pikers in the game.

To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Per- mit me to correct a statement made in an article on the old Calvert man- sion, at Riverdale, Md., in your issue of February 4. The writer says that the house was built in 1758, of bricks imported from England by the Cal- vert family. This may be so as re- |gards the old seat of the Calverts, in | Upper Marlboro, Md., but it certainly It forgave him is not true of the Riverdale mansion, | which was erected in the early part {of the nineteenth century by a de- he is respected by those who | scendant of the last Lord Baltimore; . and the bricks with which it was built 'came from the brick yards of good old those who like scientific boxing and those who are awed by | Maryland, and not from but he isn’t worshiped by fight fans, and people won- | land.” “Merrie Engé¢ The Calvert in question married | Miss Rosa Stier, the daughter of a rich Belgian banker, who furnished the | funds to erect the Riverdale house. | iin Their idea] is a rough- | | | Although the house was not built Colonial days, it is of Georgian architecture.

Dr. HENRY R. EVANS. Awful Weapons of War. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Some ‘ time since Col. Mitchell informed us that airplanes armed with bombs could destroy New York; while all the world wondered. Airplanes armed with bombs could destroy New York—if they were not prevented. So could a small boy armed with a box of matches—if he were not | prevented. And now comes a Representative in Congress who informs the world that “a submarine is a weapon of murder in war and of suicide in peace,” while the House of Representatives spends its time in awed listening. Without doubt a submarine is a weapon of murder in war and of suicide in pepe; so is a pocket knife. However. since that ts the kind of expensive and silly twaddle that we, the people pay for, it is possible and even probable that that is the kind of silly and expensive twaddle that we the people like—and we are the people, W. W. KIMBALL, The Hoover-Willis Controversy, To the Editor of The Post—Sir: The apparent desire of some of those pro- moting a campaign for delegates to the next Republican convention pledged to Mr. Hoover seems likely to create a rift in the party which might cause a repe- tition of events responsible for the last Democratic success, unless those friends , statesmanlike ability than that which brought about their controversy with 7 Senator Willis. Personally 1 see no objection to the friends of Mr. Hoover entering his name in primaries where it is possible, but it seems that some of those sponsoring this affair, probably professional poli- ticlans with a view of perpetuating themselves in success with Mr. Hoover as the stalking horse, will in the guise of his name undertake to override the | State and local organizations of the party. Thus it is brought to appear to the voters that the administration, Mr, Coolidge and all, want Mr. Hoover to win, because of his being in the Cabinet and with him their local tickets. Further remarks could be extended on this matter, but it seems to me that if those handling Mr. Hoover’s campaign persist in their present methods, hay- ing reference to the case above stated, they will either force Mr. Hoover out of the Cabinet or cause ® split in the - | party. ‘BoP. of Mr. Hoover responsible show more ¥

At the first sign of either, use Listerine, the safe antiseptic, full strength. Gargle with it repeatedly. Rinse your mouth with it. Employ it occasionaliy as a nasal douche. These simple measures may be the means of sparing you a trying—and possibly—a costly and painful siege of illness.

Be: auc let re Victorien Sardou’s play, “Diplomacy,” now rounding out its fiftieth year as a script, was revived last night on the stage of the National, its first resur- rection here since beginning of the World War. Now come to a point of beatification where only star casts have-a hand in its portrayal, the -exceedingly clever connivance of Sardou sports at least nine featured artists in its present cast of characters—mostly household names up and down the length and breadth of the land. The play, aside from this point, the assemblage of an all-star cast, furnishes, first of all, a bit of excitement in the theate:—like the magic moment before the beginning of.each race at Pimlico y Way Tau Classified Way All Over Town —there are people—scores of them, who search the columns of our Classified Section in search of a used car.

Once past the parade of the favor- ites, early entrances given over to hushed murmurings of names, out- bursts of applause, M. Sardou’s play got under way'in grand style in the House of Rapley. In its unfolding, an old-fashioned vehicle in modern trappings, the fine foreign hand of a master technician displays its wares as good in any com- pany, in any era, in any age. Time has not withered the Sardou strength, nor years weakened the pulling power of his plot. The suspense of an in- tricate maze.of mystification measures and meets the test of current melo- drama, the modern detective story, the popular mystery play. What more may be asked? The theater being what it is, nothing. Sardou set about the task his play to ensnare, not to say enslave, one of the predominant traits of human nature—curiosity. So that once an audience becomes interested in the nefarious workings of a villainous lady who steals official documents and covers her trail by casting hee an on End a Cold re ind Day!

It must be pretty generally known by this time that the frustrated love of the beautiful Comtesse Zicka for the young Capt.

The beautiful and talented Helen Gahagan is cast as the comtesse, cornered at last in her secret service work by the captain’s brother, Henry Beauclerc. Happily, the producer saw fit to bring back the gallant matinee hero of another day, William Faver- sham, who has the time of his life in characterization that gives him use for all the arts acquired in a long and worth-while career on the stage. Indeed, there shall be no attempt here to single out any one person from the official list of stars sent ferth by George Tyler, other than to say that Cecelia Loftus, once the darling of all those who enjoy the gentle art of mimicry, fairly bubbles in a mother role, the guardian of Dora, played Frances Starr.

FACES 45 YEARS IN JAIL; MAY PLEAD AS LUNATIC Two Auto Drivers Exonerated in Killing of Two Men; 2 Extortion Charges. John J. Fisher, former policeman, of 716 Roxboro place northwest, confessed pyromaniac, now a patient inthe psychopathic ward at Gallinger Hospi- tal, who is held responsible by the po- lice tor the series of incendiary fires of January 17, which resulted in dam- age exceeding $100,000, was indicted yesterday by the grand jury on two charges of arson. The district attorney's office has under consideration a third charge of arson concerning the fire at the McDowell mili property on Eck- ington place, one of the series of fires. One of the indictments against Fisher accuses him of having started the biaze at the Lank woodworking plant at 1319 W street northwest. The other indictment deals with the firing of the whalesale commission houses at 206-08 Tenth strect northwest. The maxiinmum penalty for arson is 15 years’ imprisonment and if the district attor- ney’s office is able to secure the con- viction of Fisher on the two charges al- ready filed and on the third which is under consideration, it may mean a total stretch of 45 years. However, it is possibie that counsel for Fisher may demand a lunacy hearing. The district attorney’s office, while it recognizes the fact that Fisher may be abnormal, it draws a distinction between abnor- mality and legal responsibility. Fisher will probably be arraigned Friday or Saturday. Wife-Killing Alleged. Curtis Johnson, colored, was indicted on a charge of manslaughter. He is al- leged to have shot his wife, Ishmay Johnsen, on October 9, 1927, at 1214 Twen y-fifth street northwest, during a quarvrel. Ralph G. Blasey and Robert L. Smith, policemen, attached to the Fifth pre- cinct, who have already been indicted on a charge of blackmail. were rein- dicted on a charge of extortion. Both charges concern the alleged acceptance of money by the policeman from two men as an inducement not to arrest them for having liquor in a car, Second degree murder is charged against James A. Reed, colored, in con- nection with the shooting of Richard | T. Mitchell, colored, on January 17, at 1031 Thirteenth street southeast. Exonerated in Auto Deaths. Floyd F. Young, truck driver for the Evening Star, was exonerated of a charge of homicide in connection with the death of Lee Ong, a Chinese, who was killed by a Star truck on July 31, 1927, at Pennsylvania avenue and Fourth street southeast. The grand jury also exonerated Russell Balderson, driver of the automobile which collided with a truck of a distributor of The Washington Post on Wisconsin avenue northwest on October 16, 1927, and killed Power Keller, a helper on the truck. The names of other persons indicted and the charges against them will be found in the daily legal record of The Post. $178,903 January Fire | Loss Breaks Month Record The alleged incendiary fires of Janu- ary 16 and 17, for which John J. Fisher was arrested, caused the Dis- trict’s fire loss for January to break all monthly records, according to the monthly report made to Fire Chief George F. Watson yesterday by Fire Marshal Leonard V. Seib. The month’s total fire loss was $178,- 903, of which damage ‘to buildings amounted to $66,868 and that to con- tents $112,035. Seven fires on the night in question, six of which were called incendiary by the fire depart- ment, caused loss aggregating $80,000. of the total loss for the month $121,973 was covered by insurance. Fires during the month numbered 388 of which 24 caused loss of more than $1,000 in each case and 244 caused no appreciable loss. Eighteen ‘“neecd- less” and 54 false alarms were turned in and there were 47 alarms not char- acterized either as needless or false where no fires were found. 5 ' SOS SS Springs, with every possi rite for beautiful illustrated literature from— J.

BELL After protracted star chamber pro- ceedings of a most amicable sort, it has been definitely decided that this price- less compendium of. indispensable in- formation concerning the motion pic- ture will appear in The Post on Tues- days and Thursdays of each week and Mr. Daly’s “The Spotlight,” dealing with articulate drama, on Wednestiays and Fridays. This arrangement places The Post in the van of the Washington press as the daily periodical carrying interesting and authentic news of the theater seven days n week. This department will be slightly varied on Saturday, beginning this week, February 11, and will, we hope, be well worth watching. Mr. Daly and I admit most generously that our Sabbath sections are now the best in town—complete, authoritative and most entertainingly written! Constructive criticism will always be welcomed in a big-hearted manner. We are public servants, here to serve, etc., etc. William McGrath, to whom we have frequently referred playfully as “Doctor McGrath, the voice of the Fox,” severed ‘his connection with the F = street [cathedral presided over by S. J. Steb- bins managing director, last Saturday night, departing for New York 24 hours later. The genial “doctor” has been suc- ceeded at the Fox by that equally engaging publicist, correspondent and night club impresario, Mr. Hardie Meakin, who hereafter will be responsi- ble for the dissemination of such In- formative tidings as are deemed en- couraging to remunecerative reaction at the box-office.

James Murray and House Peters. Mr. Beatus also promises an impor- tant announcement or two upon his return from the metropolis. Now you can sit up and worry about it until Thursday! My circulation yesterday was much improved, a call being paid to practical- ly every executive office in town having to do with the gyrating gelatins. While enjoying a brief visit with Frank Steffy, manager of the Railto, and Corbin Sheild, house stentor, in the office of the former, who should walk in but our old friend, Tom Moore, looking 10 pounds lighter and ten years younger than the last time we saw him. Our association with “T. M.” began when he was operating the Strand, Garden, American and Plaza Theaters, and the Rialto was in the building, along with Loew’s Palace and Cran- dall’s Metropolitan. He then was ab- sorbed in the intricacies of the “picture racket,” but now Is wholly wrapped up in his 44-year-old son and one or two promotional schemes that have 6up- planted the celluloids in his intreest These Ponce De Leons and their suc- cessful quests for that fabled fountain certainly capture my hollow horned ruminant—if that really is the way you spell “goat,” It develops that our long-distance hunch that it was Manny King singing “Just a Memory,” from the top of the organ console at the Fox in the “Opera vs. Jazz’ presentation Sunday after- noon—and throughout the current eek, of course—was correct. His ap- pearance on this week’s bill, we are in- formed by Mr. Stebbins, is in the na- | ture of the fulfillment of a dream. When the Fox was thrown open to the gaze of admiring crowds last Sep- tember, Manny King was an invited guest at the Press Club’s invitational inaugural. Much impressed by the beauties and mammoth proportions of the house, he is reported to have gasped in a negative sort of way, as one might express any forlorn hope: “Gee! What a house! I wonder if I'll ever get a chance to sing in‘this place?” The answer is patent. And if you Fox with his juventle tenor, go and listen to the | |}applause that thunders at him as the | elevator-console again submerges neath the line of vision of ence. One of the hits of the show. It is a foregone conclusion that such veteran artists as Emil Jannings and William Powell always may be expected to turn in flawless performances in whatever roles they are cast. It is ex- emplified again this week at the Colum- bia where each is contributing a re- markably fine portrayal of his appoint- ed character in “The Last Command,” one of the most impressive pictures ever brought to the screen. Of s0 young a newcomer to roles of import- the audi- ; be- | i | ance as Evelyn Brent so much might | not reasonably be looked for. Yet | never has she faltered in her last three | major assignments. orem ne ee mr ee =~ — the master she was’ eqally efficient in the prin- cipal feminine role opposite Gary Cooper and in numerous. colorful scenes with Noah Beery as the pictur- esque desert chieftain. Now in “The Last Command,” she displays still further indication of ex- traordinary endowment by visualizing with exceptional ¢comprehension the only feminine role in the play on a parity in importance with those sturdier figures played so expertly by Messrs. Jannihgs and Powell. How long ago her days of two-gun “moll” parts in FBO thrillers must seem to Miss Brent. And what an “ace” Paramount picked up when it signed her. -——_—_—o And how tickled I am when 1 pick | up the paper to learn that what I wrote “serfdom of the celluloids” is printed “surface of the celluloids” and “going on 90 years’ appears in type as “going out 90 years.” You'd be surprised. yeggman in “Beau Sabreur,” | }a much less noteworthy production, HOTEL HOUST ON 910 E Street (at Ninth) is pronounced lifke Houston, Texas, not like the celebrated street in New York.

Declarer should plan to hold up ‘the Hearts until the third round, thus ex- hausting East if the adverse Heart@ be dangerous (that is, if West have five); next try the Club finesse which can be taken either way; but ‘should be so taken that it it lose, East wiil be the adversary who wins the trick. Shguld Kast win with the Queen of Clubs and have a fourth Heart, Declarer would discard « Diamond from Closed Ha ard make the rest of the tricks (three- odd). If the Club finesse win or if, when it lose, East has not a fourth Heart, thie game is easier still. If the Club finesse lose and East lead a Dia-- mond, the finesse in that suit which would let in West (the danger hand) should not be tried. Played in this way the game is assured, TOMORROW'S HAND.

Amendments Lowering Age Limits Reported to- House District Committee. ae ‘“Tfullin testified. wera? a et Frederick L. Siddons. James J. O'Leary, assistant United States district attor- ney, completed his presentation of the conclusions which have convinced the government that it has made a case, and Neil Burkinshaw, also of the dis- trict attorney’s staff, commenced a re- view of the facts in substantiation of the government’s contention that far more was intended and done in connec- tion with the espionage of the jury in the Fall-Sinclair conspiracy case than the mere shadowing which the respond- ents acknowledged in their answers. Summation by Maj. Peyton Gordon, United States district attorney, and an | answer on behalf of the respondents is yet to come before the court rules upon the pending motion. The burden of Mr. O’Leary’s argu- ment was that there can be criminal contempt where there has been neither obstruction of justice nor the direct tendency to obstruct justice and that, judged in such a light, the respondents | tion. had been proved guilty. Espionage Is Charged. He insisted that the espionage itself, the acts committed while it was in progress and the purpose for which it was carried out must all be considered Mr. Burkinshaw, in his review of the testimony, insisted that there had, in fact, been more than shadowing and that the respondents had endeavored to obtain information through which they might at the proper time “reach” the furors. “It is not necessary for the Govern- ment. to show that the acts committed had the effect of obstructing justice,” said Mr. O'Leary. “The court is not called upon in this case to determine that shadowing per se is contempt of court. Shadowing in th» sense of ob- eervation is not involved. We have here jury espionage carried on by de- tectives hired by the respondents com- ing into the very courtroom itself, look- ing up encumbrances on _ property, speaking to the mother and father of one juror, one juror giving utterances to bribe thoughts, the case then on trial halted and justice delayed. Questioned by Policeman. “The activities of these detectives was such that at least one of them was questioned br a policeman because of his actions, and one of the jurors tes- tified he saw O'Reilly near his place of-employment. By these activities of the respondents and their agents it is apparent that it is not shadowing alone that constitutes this case. “Misconduct is a ground for con- tempt, and it does not have to obstruct or have a tendency to obstruct justice. Obviously there was misconduct and misbehavior here. Criminality does not lose its characteristics by precautions to conceal the criminality. There is in truth a criminal contempt in cases which do not obstruct or tend to ob- struct justice.” “Was the real purpose of this shad- owing to see that the Government did not shadow these men,” said Mr. Burk- inshaw, “or to see that no one repre- senting the Government was near enough to prevent the real purpose at what was thought the proper time?” Cites Case of Juror Here. “If Harry Sinclair really wanted to know if the Government was seeking to approach these jurors, why was it care- fully left out of all the edited reports, which were being submitted to Day, that no one else was shadowing the jurors? What did Ruddy mean when he wrote that he was having difficulty with the clients keeping their feet on the ground? “The false reports were made for the purpose of provoking a mistrial, Mc- To whom would #uch an outcome have been profitable? The question answer itself. “It has been contended by counsel for the respondents that there was nothing in this case but shadowing, only surveillance. Was it only that? The activities of these agents show that they were investigating for the purpose of obtaining information more than shadowing or surveillance. Were they interested when they searched for the incumbrance on the héme of Juror Kern in trying to determine if Govern- ment agents were following him? The only reasonable inference is that théy were trying to get a line through which they might later reach him.” Driver of Ambulance Dies Answering Call Arthur Hudson, colored, 35 years old, driver of the District of Columbia Health Department ambulance was stricken with a hemorrhage and died while responding to a call from a house in Chevy Chase yesterday afternoon.

Wardman proposes this elaboration of the community house idea and asks that the zoning of the square in ques- tion be changed from A and A re- stricted to residential B_ restricted area. A community house is a group of three houses attached. Wardman’'s plan is for groups of five and seven houses. He has submitted drawings of the buildings he intends to erect and is prepared, it is said, to pledge that he will erect those buildings and no others if the zoning change he asks 1s grant- ed. The commission is said to look with favor upon his plan as offering architectural variety. Another application by Wardman will. be considered at the samr hear- ing to raise the height restrictiun from 90 to 110 feet on first commercial prop- erty on the south side of L street northwest, between Eighteenth street and Connecticut avenue. It is said that he intends erecting an office building there. Canal Road Plan.

Painters Union Wins Suit on Counsel Fees The local union No, 368 of the Brotherhood of Painters, Paperhangers and Decorators of America, which was engaged in an injunction controversy with the Barker Painting Co., of New York, in connection with the painting and decorating of what. is now called the Mayflower Hotel, won its fight yes- terday in the Court of Appeals for compensation for Attorneys Sheehy & Sheehy, who were successful in the in- junction case. The Barker concern posted a bond after procuring a temporary injunction, and when the case was finally decided by Justice Smith in favor of the union the attorneys were denied counsel fees. The Appellate Court, after reviewing the case, decided that the union should not only collect damages for the wrongful suing out of the injunction, but should collect from the Barker company the funds with which to pay the attorneys.

American department stores, he said, have the advantage on the spond as quickly as Americans to adver- tising. Service in the American stores was also better than that given in English shops, he stated. The young working woman of Wash- ington, however, could purchase her dresses more cheaply in London than in Washington, Mr. Selfridge said, but, then, again, the American woman em- ploye is pai’ approximately 20 per cent more in wages than the English wom- an. Mr. Selfridge declared that London was the center of clothing styles for men, but English women like American women followed the feminine styles created in Paris. During his visit here Mr. Selfridge was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Bond, 3300 O street north- west. Library Association To Hear Dr. Hummel Dr. Arthur H.

New Trial Is Denied In Damage Action —_— —— The Capital Traction Co., which was assessed $5,000 damages by a Circuit Court jury on January 18, 1927, in favor of Robert M. Lyon, a minor, of Takoma Park, was denied a new trial yesterday by the Court of Appeals. The judg- ment of the lower court was affirmed. Lyon was a passenger on a street car on June 1, 1925, and rode to the loop at Fourteenth street and Colorado ave- nue northwest. His arm plunged through the glass in the car window when the car suddenly speeded forward around the loop. The company con- tended that he should have seized a strap. Attorneys Lambert & Yeatman appeared for Lyon. Daniel Brown Faces Mann Act Charges The Federal grand Jury yesterday re- turned an indictment charging Daniel Brown, of Los Angeles, Calif., reputed wealthy race track owner, with viola- tion of the Mann act. The indictment charges that Brown brought a 16-year- old girl from Florida to the District for immoral purposes.

Upon their return to Florida the girl camg to Washington, where she was registered at a hotel in April, 1925, when the alleged immoral acts were committed, ‘Health Jurisdiction Over Market Cleared The Health Department of the Dis- trict and the Department of Agriculture have concurrent jurisdiction in matters pertaining to the protection of food- stuffs displayed at Center Market, ac- cording to an opinion rendered by the Court of Appeals. Rockwood Nussbaum, a dealer, who paid a small fine in Police Court on a charge of violating the Health Depart- ment regulations in connection with a display of comb honey, objected to be- ing prosecuted by the municipal author- ities and contended that he should have been prosecuted, if at all, by the Federal authorities. The appellate court disagreed with him and stated authHorities did not nullify the regula- tions of the Health Department, BOY SCOUT EXECUTIVE ee ee ee ee Hacking Out of 40-Foot Cy- press Will Be Begun To- day by Steere. A real Injun totem pole, symbolical of eighteen years of Boy Scout history in the United States, will be hacked out of a 40-foot cypress telegraph pole in front of the District Building today and tomorrow by James E. Steere, Boy Scout executive of Charlotte, N. C., ac- cording to an announcement yesterday from scout headquarters. The exhibition will be a feature of the eighteenth anniversary celebration of the organization of the scout move- ment in America. Steere will first use a double-bladed axe in hewing the rough outlines of his totem, completing the details with a regulation scout axe. The pole, which is some 18 inches thick, was donated by the Potomac Electric Power Co. It is the largest Steere has attempted to carve. The pole will be given to the Play- ground Department of the District, and mounted near the Union Station Plaza Piaygrounds. Scouts from troops throughout the city will be assigned to assist Steere after school hours. The totem will be painted with Indian palm colors—red, white, blue and yellow. It will tell the history of scouting through symbols peculiar to the Indian sign language.

The grand jury, through its foreman, Martin D. McQuade, sent a note yes- terday to Edwin B. Hesse, major and superintendent of police, in cinct, and his subordinates, are com- plimented for their work in the recent arrest of Clarence Bowie on charges of robbery and one charge. The communication reads: ‘The grand jury, in regular session, a letter of commen- | dation be sent you in reference to the efficiency and good judgment displayed } by Bremerman men of Capt. clothes and the Fourth sion of a man named Bowie, charged with three separate cases of robbery and one of rape. It seems there was little or no clues to the identity of this man yet in a very short time those officers had effected his arrest and the case is now before the grand jury for action. “It is such good work as this, on part of your officers that makes the Police Pepartment stand high in the estimation of the citizens of Wash- ington and throughout the county. [ take great pleasure in carrying out the wishes of the grand jury in this respect.” the Condemnation Case Delayed by Court Condemnation proceedings affecting land to be acquired for the new build- ing for the United States Supreme Court were continued yesterday by Justice Hitz in the United States Dis- trict Court until next Monday because of the failure of the Government to select three freeholders to act as a commission. Twenty-five more freeholders will be summoned for next Monday. The commission to be selected will appraise the property to be condemned and taken. Included in the property is the old “Brick Capitol” at 21 First street northeast, which is now occu- pied by the National Woman’s, Party.

This opinion settles the controversy | between the Juvenile Court and the office of Maj. Peyton Gordon, district attorney, concerning the right of the Police Court to arraign, examine and commit such minors, which resulted, in 'one instance, in Assistant District At- torney Leo A. Rover and Stephen B. Callahan, chief deputy marshal, and the superintendent of the National Training School for Boys being cited in contempt by Judge Kathryn Sellers in a case where the district attorney’s of- 'fice insisted that the Poiice Court had | power to examine and commit a colored boy under the age of 17. Judge Sellers became indignant when 'Mr. Rover caused the removal of the boy from the training school back to the jail, from which he had been re- moved by order of the Juvenile Court. Habeas Corpus Writ Disputed. The appellate court infers that {it makes very little difference, #@ any, which route is taken by the proscecut- ing authorities to bring to trial a per- son under the age of 17 on a charge of committing a felony. The Police Court has been examining and com- mitting mirors for such offenses since 1870. The act of Congress of March 19, 1906, creating the Juvenile Court and empowering this tribunal to examine and commit minors charged with fel- onies, did not rob the Police Court of the power to do the same thing, the appellate court decided. The decision of the latter tribunal arises in the case of Harold Reed, a colored minor, who sued out a writ of habeas corpus to obatin his _ release from jail t- which he had been com- mitted by the Police Court on a charge of housebreaking. Chief Justtce Walter I. McCoy of the District Supreme Court heard the case and he decided that the | Juvenile Court had exclusive jurisdic- | tion over Reed and ordered his release | from jail and his transfer to the juris- diction of the Juvenile Court. An ap- peal was taken from this order by Maj. Peyton Gordon. The appellate court now holds that the Chief Justice was in error. Juvenile Court Act Cited. “Both courts (the Juvenile and the Police Courts) have jurisdiction over |; minors charged ,in conflict with the like provisions of such juveniles,” the Appellate Court said, “and as the provisions of the law conferring power upon the Police Court to examine, commit or admit to bail with felonies are not the Juvenile Court act, it follows that. the provisions giving jurisdiction to the Police Court are not repealed by the Juvenile Court act.” After Judge Sellers had cited Rover, Callahan and the superintendent of the National Training School for Boys in contempt these officials sought a writ of prohibition from Justice Fred- erick L. Siddons, of the District Su- preme Court to prevent Judge Sellers from trying them on the contempt charge. Justice Siddons postponed the hearing on the petition for the writ which | ; ; merman, ‘ > Four e- | Capt, Bremerman, of the Fourth £te- | indicate that the writ of probibitiam ' will issue. three | statutory | of prohibition until the Appellate Court had acted jn the Reed case.
