Secretary of Commerce Hoover yleld- day made a filed against Senator Guy D. Goff and Gov. Smith filed against Reed.

George H. Harries would be the ranking brigadier yxeneral of volunteers. So the District brigade was whittled to a regiment of vol- unteers, ani a colonelcy was the best George could do until the World War made him a major gen- eral, twenty years later.

The primary, May 29, probably was a fac- tor in influencing the Secretary of Commerce to make a fight in the State because a decision against him would hardly have any effect aside from the loss of nineteen or less delegates. In so far as newspaper polls in the State reflect the sentiment, it is 10 to 1 against him, but his friends insist that explanations are gradually overcoming the opposition to him from the coal | operators and that primary he will be found to be the choice of the State. Gov. Gore, at present a candidate for the United States Senate, former Gov. Morgan, now with Mr. Hoover in of Commerce, are understood been the principal influences in the Secretary’s decision to contest the 1s- sue with Senator Goff Grant P Hall.

The Kentuckian, who is a former judge, made this announcement yes- terday following the fifth hearing on the merger pian. He indicated that he had this in mind when he began ques- tioning W. A. Roberts, of the Federa- tion of Citizens Associations, who 1s fighting the merger agreement as it 1s now written. Roberts thinks that the 850,000,000 valuation placed on the atreet car com- panies and the bus lines is too high, but he is not ready to say what the valuation should be. This, he thinks, should be determined by a new phys- ical inventory of the properties. Will- lam. McK.

TUESDAY RESERVED BY PROCLAMATION Catholic Children Will Have Annual May Festival at Catholic University. Washington last night was compilet- ing plang for the celebration of Tues- day as Child Health Day, following the Issuance of a national proclamation by President Coolidge yesterday, setting aside May 1 for exercises and obsery- ance bearing on the question. The proclamation invited the people and organizations throughout’ the country “‘to unite upon that day in the observance of such exercises as will ac- quaint the people of the Nation with the fundamental necessity of a year- around program for the protection and development of the health of the Na- tion’s children.” The President spoke of children as “fundamental necessities to the future progress and welfare of the Nation.” Many Events on Program. Special events in celebration of the day will be held at all of the city play- grounds, according to plans previously j}announced by Mrs. Susie Root Rhodes, tion should be between 837,500,000 and | $40,000,000. Within a Year, Roberts Says. Roberts, who is an employe of the Interstate. Commerce Commission, was asked by Gilbert yesterday how long it would take the commission’s experts to make a valuation of the _ traction companies. He asked him specifically if the valuation could be completed be- fore the. merger agreement expires in | June, 1929. Roberts said he was quite sure that a physical inventory could be com- pleted within a year, but he make no guess as to how long ensuing litigation, if any, would take. After the hearing, Gilbert said that unless the confusion that is in mind regarding the fair value of the to the committee that a resolution be | the | to | be made to remedy physical defects. in Congress directing Interstate Commerce Commission make the valuation.

Sinister Interest Denied, Friday Roberts was asked by Repre- ‘e Gilbert if James G. Yaden, of the Feceration of Citi- Associations, had any connection that might influience him in his in- dorsernent of the merger plan. Roberts | pointed out that Yuden was a director of the Washington Rapid Transit Co., which is owned by Harley P. Wilson, spokesman here for the North Ameri- can Co., which dominates the local traction field. Yesterday Representative Reld asked Roberts if he had meant to convey the impression that Yaden has a “personal or sinister interest in the merger.” Roberts emphaticaliy denied that this was his intention, and added that he had been particularly careful not to say anything reflecting on Yaden's character. Representative Gilbert went to Rob- | erts’ rescue, and declared that if Roberts’ statement had been inter- preted 2s a refiection of Yaden, it was because of the construction of (Gilbert’s) question, and not because of Roberts’ answer. Letter From Yaden Read. A letter from Yaden was read into the record by Chairman Zihlman which pointed out that Harley P. Wilson had invited Yaden to become a director in the bus company because it was the company's policy to have somebody to represent the general public, Yaden, according to the letter, accepted the office as director with the understand- ing that the federation should approve his action. This the federation did. “They picked me because I was presi- dent of the federation, not because I was Jim Yaden,” the civic leader said after the hearing. “My job as director will expire along with my job as presi- dent of the federation.” The hearing will be continued to- morrow morning at 10:30 o’clock. The Senate District committee will devote an:hour Tuesday morning listening to William McK. Clayton condemn the merger agreement and to somebody yet to be selected to pralse it. “information” as well as by indictment, the impaneling of grand juries at least once a year and at such times as may be considered necessary by the court and presentation of criminal cases to grand juries whether or not preliminary ex- amination has been held. The session was presided over by for- mer Attorney General George W. Wick- ersham. William E. Miskell and Edwin R. Keedy, professors of the University of Pennsylvania Law School, served as leaders in the discussions. Transfer from the State legislatures to the courts of the power to change or modify the fixed rules of the legal prac- tice and procedures was urged by Hor- ace Kent Tenney, a member of the Illinois Bar Association, last night in an address at a banquet of the institute. “Lawyers,” he said, “are compelled to observe and can not change the fixed rules of practice. That power lies with the legislatures and the courts. The legislatures really take little interest in the matter and seldom do anything but enact complicated codes, which keep the courts busy deciding what they mean and why they mean it. The remedy lies ir. having the legislatures, which know nothing about procedure, turn the whole matter over to the courts, who know everything about it.” Mr. Wickersham was toastmaster. The other speakers were Robert M. Hutch- ins, dean of law at Yale University, who reviewed the rapid progress and advance- ment made by the institute for the versity, who traced the history of law} ancient to the present day. from t Rome would | his | | | \ ' kioberts regarding | | morning properties 1s dissipated, he will suggest | Cards will director of the Municipal Playground Department.

Too late to effect the rescue of a pair of luckless motorists stranded in the center of a swollen ford at Blag- den avenue in Rock Creek Park yester- day, Thirteenth Precinct police arrived in time to arrest Robert B. Gibson, of 4710 Fifteenth street northwest, driver of the car, who was charged with fail- ure to observe a sign warning that the ford was unsafe. Gibson, with Newton M. Schlosser, of 900 Rittenhouse street northwest, a passenger in the partly submerged au- tomobile, spent neariy an hour marooned in the tonneau of the car after the motor stalled. Scores of motorists swarmed the banks on both asides of the creck, shouting words of advice and encour- agement to the men as the water threatened momentarily to sweep car and passengers downstream. Responding to a call from a woman witness, Battalion Chief Andrew Bus- cher, of the fire department, accom- panied by W. F. Mahaney, hurried to the scene. Mahaney, carrying skid chains wadded waist deep to the stalled car, attached the chains and the car with its occupants was towed ashore to the waiting arms of the law. Gibson was required to leave collateral at the police station before proceeding to his home, ENDOWMENT FOR GLARK COLLECTION ANNOUNCED Widow and Daughters of Sen- | La Follette Mentions Evidence ator Will Maintain Gift to Corcoran Gallery. AMOUNT JS IN DOUBT! An endowment fund sufficient for the maintenance of the Clark collection at the Gallery. which was opened nearly two months ago by President Coolidge, will be provided by the late senator's widow and his three daughters, according to an announcement yesterday by Charles C. Glover, president of the gallery. The amount of the endowment has not yet been definitely determined, and the details of the plan rgmain to be worked out. It ts known, however, that the sum will be based on the an- nual cost of operation. As the col- lection has only been open to the public for six weeks, the board of trustees as yet has not suffictent formation on which of operating cost. The reception March 10, marked the opening of the collection and the annex in which tt is housed, was one of the most brilllant events in the annals of the Corcoran Gallery of Art. Mrs. William A. Clark, widow of the senator from Montana, was present, with the three daughters who are codonors of the fund just an- nounced, Mrs. Marius de Brabant, Mrs. Lewis R. Morris and Miss Huguette Marcelle Clark. The family to base estimates hud already donated $700,000 to the gallerv for the erection | of the addition in which the art treas- ures bequeathed the Institution by Senator Clark could be housed. The endowment announced day was a voluntary one, it was nounced, and was made so that expense of caring for the bequest should never become a burden on tie gallery or any individuals. “The scope, the value and the beauty of the collection bequeathed to Corcoran Gallery of Art under the will of the late senator froin Montana is so well Known and has already been so widely published, that further com- ment is unnecessary.” a stateinent is- sued by the gallery following an- nouncement of the erdowment, read. “Suffice it to say that it constitutes an immense asset to the Corcoran Gal- lery of Art and to the National Cap- ital. “In view of the Jiberal donation which these ladies naa already made to the Corcoran Gallery of Art in pro- viding a beautiful home for the W. A. Clark collection, the steps which they are now so generoucly taking to estab- lish a permanent endowment § for maintaining the collection, constitute an additional service of far-reaching significance to the Corcoran Gallery of Art and to the fublic.” an- Playgrounds Open On Holidays Urged he Anacostia Citizens Association last night urged that school play- grounds be kept open on holidays and afternoons after school in a resolution passed at a meeting held in the Ma- sonic Hall, Fourteenth and U streets southeast.

George L. Voith, 5405 Illinois ave- nue northwest, juror in Criminal Court No. 2, who took a vacation from duty last Tuesday without permission, paid a fine of $50 yesterday for his indis- cretion. The explanation offered for this kind of conduct was that Voith met an au- tomobile salesman while on his way to court and was invited for a ride and given a drink of liquor. After drink- ing, Voith explained, he knew no more until about midnight, when he man- aged to find his way home. The juror was sitting in a case and Justice Frederick L. Siddons, who im- posed the $50 fine, was forced to post- pone trial of the case not only on the day Voith was missing but for the next day as well as the juror had not quite recovered. The case in which Voith was sitting was resumed on Thursday, and the defendant, who was indicted on a statutory charge, was found guilty.

SENATE INQUIRY URGED ON COUZENS’ CHARGES of Collusion to Force Huge Fee. (Assoclated Press.) An investigation of charges that the Bureau of Internal Revenue had at- tempted to intimidate Senator Couzens (Republican), Michigan. by threaten- ing him with a huge additional tax as- sessment was proposed yesterday in a resolution introduced by ‘“enator La Follette (Republican), Wisconsin. The charges were made in the Senate by Couzens himself, who has persistently opposed the tax policy of the adminis- tration. In the course of a speech from the floor on April 12, Senator Couzens said that he was threatened with an addl- tlonal assessment at a time when he was chairman of a committee investi- gating the affairs of the bureau. The La Follette resolution declared that David H. Blair, commissioner of internal revenue, formally advised Sen- ator Couzens that the bureau had no information to justify the original assessment. It was later revealed, the measure said, that the bureau had in- vestigated the assessment many times | and that it had been approved. In addition the resolution charged that there was “evidence of collusion between high bureau officials and 6s0- called tax experts in an endeavor to extort a huge fee” from the Michigan This evidence, it was added, was made known to Commissioner | Blair, but the latter took no action. yester- | STRIKE OF BAKERY the DRIVERS THREATENS Deadlock on Pay Increase Ends Conference With Their Employers.

[BREMEN FLIERS HONOR BENNETT'S GRAVE WITH WREATH AND IRISH FLAG HOUSE AND SENATE VOTE FLYING CROSS TO BREMEN'S CREW German-Ilrish Fliers Pay Trib- ute to Floyd Bennett at Arlington Grave. SENATE VOTES MEDAL ~ TO NORTH POLE FLIER Authorizes President to Pre. sent Lincoln Ellsworth With Gold Plaque. ‘RADIATOR PIPE LEAKS BINGHAM OPPOSES HONOR (Associated Press.) The Senate yesterday passed a bill by Senator Copeland (Democrat), New York, authorizing the President to pre- sent a gold medal to Lincoln Ellsworth in resognition of his polar flight of 1925 and his transpolar flight of 1926 in company with Amundsen and Nobile in the dirigible Norge. The measure now goes to the House. The Senate took action following the reading of a letter addressed to Senator Robinson (Democrat), Arkansas, from Commander Richard Byrd, Ellsworth’s rival in the transpolar flight, whose plane, piloted by Floyd Bennett, suc- ceeded in beating the Norge to the goal, The Byrd letter contained unstinted praise of Ellsworth’s accomplishments and urged that Government recogni- tion be made of his work in the fteid of aviation. Byrd declared that :te doubted if the records of modern times contained a more thrilling story than that of Ellsworth’s and pointed out |that through storms and unvoyaged currents of air he succeeded, in com- pany with foreign aviators, after he was | Abbeville, France, April 28 (A.P.).— | After hopping off from Le Bourget learly this morning on a flight which | led to some belief that they might |have started across the Atlantic, Maj. ‘Louis Idzikowski and Maj.

TAFT, well. After receiving the greeting which the metropolis so well gives to men of fame, the fliers are to return here Wednesday to be received by the Presi- dent and official Washington in gen- eral. During their overnight stay here the fliers, Baron von Huenefeld, Capt. Her- man Koehl and Maj. James Fitz- maurice, adhered to a fixed policy of permitting no demonstration in their behalf. They came for the sole pur- pose of paying tribute to Bennett, and with the exception of the several hun- cred persons who greeted them at the Union Station Friday and the scores of newspaper men and photographers who followed them about, they were not In Washington so far concerned. Four Wreaths Put on Grave. Arising early at Bolling Field, where they spent the night as the guests of Maj. H. C. Davidson, commander of the field, and the Bolling Field fliers in general, the transatlantic eagles, to- gether with Miss Herta Junkers, went to Arlington Cemetery. where the newly-made grave of Bennett lies near that of Admiral Peary. Besides Ma]. Davidson, Capt. Christian A. Schwarz- waelder and Lieut. Kellogg Sloan ac- companied them. Four wreaths were placed on the grave, one by each of the filers and by Miss Junkers. Baron Huenefeld and Maj. Fitzmaurice placed tiny flags of their respective countries beside the wreaths and Maj. Davidson placed, the Stars and Stripes. After standing at reverent attention for a minute or so, the small party of mourners reentered automobiles and sped away to another part of the cemetery, where a similar tribute was paid to Lieut. Stanton H. Wooster, who with Lieut. Comdr. Noel Davis was killed when their plane, the American Legion, fell into the water near Lang- ley Field, Va., April 26, 1927, Abandon Trip by Air. From there the party returned to Bolling Field to watch the weather to see if they could fly to New York. An Army Fokker plane was at their dis- posal, but when the inclement weather showed no signs of clearing, travel by train wus determined upon. The fliers with Miss Junkers left the field just 20 minutes before the de- parture of the 1:05 o’clock train for New York. With the confusion that attended their stay in Washington still in attendance, it was learned upon ar- rival at the station that Miss Junkers was not present and the train had to be held a few minutes until she put in appearance. Although the weather worked hard- ships on those who had to do with the fliers’ stay here, it apparently was not disagreeable to them. To all inquiries as to how they liked it, the Germans replied. "Goot, goot,” and grinned hap- pily. This was about the extent of their conversation with newspaper men as the fliers are so involved with news- paper syndicates that they have to measure their words. Will Return on Wednesday. When they return Wednesday they are to be in the care of the State Depart- ment, that day having been set as con- venient to all sides when the fliers’ presence in this country can be recog- nized. Anything done before that time apparently does not count. According to the tentative prograni they are to return by airplane, arriving at Bolling Field at 10 o’clock, where the military is arranging for an appropriate reception. At noon they are to be re- ceived at the White House by President Coolidge and subsequently they will have lunch with him. At 2:30 o’clock they are to visit the tomb of the Unknown Soldier to honor him in the manner that they honored Floyd Bennett. Then there is to be a visit to the Capitol at 3:30 o’clock. Will Be Dinner Guests. At 8 o’clock dinners are to be given in their honor both by the German Am- bassador and the Irish Minister. Am- bassador von Prittwitz’ dinner to be at the embassy, while that of Munister Smiddy is to be at the Mayflower Hotel. At 10 o’clock there is to be a reception at the hotel by the Assistant Secretaries for Aviation of the Departments of Commerce, War and Navy. They plan to leave early Thursday morning to return to New York. Passage of measure authorizing the distinguished flying cross by the Sen- ate yesterday was not without the pro- test of Senator Blease, of South Caro- lina, who declared he thought “this hero worship” had “gone far enough.” Sen- ator Robinson, of Arkansas, the minor- ity leader, expressing regret at the South Carolinian’s objection, described the flights as the most inspiring achievements in recent history. Besides the Bremen filers, the aviators who would be honored by the Senats meas- ure are Dieudonne Costes and Joseph Lebrix, the Frenchmen who crossed the South Atlantic and came to this coun- try, and to Francesco di Pinedo, the Italian aviator, who followed them. Sergt. Chapman Wins Air Heroism Award President Coolidge yesterday bestowed the first.amnual Cheney award, given for valor in connection with aviation, upon Master Sergt. Harry A. Chapman, Air Corps, for the heroism which he displayed when the airship Roma crashed near Norfolk, Va., in 1922. This is the first bestowal of the award, which was created to honor the memory of Lieut. William H. Cheney, who was killed in a collision of airplanes in Italy in 1918. Sergt. Chapman was a member of the crew of the Roma when it crashed and caught fire. He, with four other mem- bers of the crew, was trapped in a can- vas-inclosed compartment, their escape through the usual exits being cut off by the flames. Chapman cut a hole through the canvas and, instead of leaping out, first assisted those entrapped with him to AH RETURN 10 IRELAND IN BREMEN CONSIDERED Mechanic Will Be Sent North to Look Over the Plane, Germans Announce. START FROM NEW YORK as the public was | New York, April 28 (A.P.).—The first | |; men to fly the north Atlantic from east to west may attempt to add a round trip across the ocean to thelr laurels, they announced tonight, short- ly after their arrival from Washington to receive the official welcome of the objective city of their western flight. A return flight from Mitchel Field to Baldonnel Field, in Ireland, from where they hopped off is contemplated by the crew of the monoplane Bremen, Capt. Koehl said tonight. The three fliers, he sald, return to Greenly Island, left the Bremen, and fly York in two weeks. After the ship has been brought to Mitchel Field, and additional instru- ments, including a sextant, installed, the return flight is a possibility, Koehl said. “Flying over the ocean is not ished,” Koehl told newspaper men. “It is possible that we may fly back, but many thiggs have to be settled first. We realize that we will need more in- struments to fly back and Baldonnel Field. “The compasses on the Bremen worked very well until we got off Lab- rador. Then the ances interfered with it and we were thrown far from our course.” Regarding the fate of the Bremen, still on Greenly Island, Capt. Koehl said: “We hope to go up to it and get It in about fourteen days and fly back Mitchel Field. In the meantime a me- chanic will be sent up to look it over.” Neither motor nor ship, he said, needs overhauling, “the motor is in perfect condition, but needs tuning up,” he explained. A return trip from.Greenly Island, Maj. Fitzmaurice explained ‘to inter- viewers, was not considered because of the surrounding wilderness. “If we started to fly back from the island and got forced down we might be a long time getting out because of the desolate nature of the country up there.” In reply to a question Fitzmaurice declared he thought it very possible that Nungesser and Coli, believed lost in their attempt to span the Atlantic in a westerly flight last year, might have landed on this side. “We make no claim to being the first to cross,” he said, “because they might have made it.” “We never doubted that we would land safely,” Fitzmaurice told Mayor Walker. “If we had, we wouldn't have started.” Regarding commercial transportation by air across the Atlantic, Fitzmaurice said he believed “organization is what is. needed to make commercial ¢ -an flying a reality.” At the termination of the interview the three announced they intended to remain in the hotel tonight “for a good night’s rest.” ANNULMENT PAPERS SERVED ON MRS.DRURY Mrs. Peter A. Drury, jr., was yester- day served with papers in connection with a suit for annulment of their Rockville, Mdy, marriage, filed in Reno, Nev., March 25, setting forth among other things the allegation that Mrs. Drury, then the Baroness von Hagen, gave intoxicating liquor to the bride- groom. He went through the marriage ceremony “in a befuddled condition,” according to the bill. Drury, in his plea for severance of the marriage ties, states that Mrs. Drury is a woman “wise in the ways of the world.” He declares their wedding was the fourth matrimonial venture with her. The parallel which has linked the progress of marital strife between Drury and the romance of Mrs. Margaret Simonds Drury, his frst wife, and Charles W. Waring, of Charleston, 8S. C., was apparent again yesterday when it was learned that the latter couple obtained a license to wed in Rockville simultaneously with the service of the bill of particulars. where it to they New fin- Lindbergh Flies 200,000 Miles in 2,520 Hours in Air (Associated Press.)

He is listed in the Commerce rec- ord as pilot No. 69, holding highest form of certificate entitling him to operate any type of plane in any type of service.

They flew for an hour toward Wash-| ington, and by that time the weather was so thick they were forced to bank and turn and scurry for shelter, which they found at Miller Field, Staten Island. “It was impossible to fly to the Capi- tal,” Balchen said. “There is a ceiling of only 400 feet, and nothing but fog above that.” Balchen, who was a great friend of Bennett's, was deeply hurt by his in- ability to reach Washington and pay his respects to his dead comrade. “I am more sorry than I can say that were were not able to go to Washing- ton and Arlington Cemetery,” he said. “I was most anxious to pay my respects to Floyd, as fine and brave a flier as ever took the air, but we can not take useless chances. If any one thing would aave sent us through it would have been our desire to visit Floyd’s grave.” CP RE EET EEE ECB BEN EERE REN REN SAE EN BNET 9 Forced to Turn ’ j ' ,ur i ¥ Monday they will experience what prom- | presided. t ! | sion | Charles | and a whipping | | Hermann ‘ | Grover (mayor's { ithe liner to the city | piloted The rest that the airmen an altogether unwilling public to- MONROE'S LAW OFFICE ‘Washington Descendants of|**s; ‘humble law office in |; gan ‘a long (and i nect , unfavorable weather caused them to be | Monroe | pubic. were granted | night and that coming to them tomor- | row is the lull before the storm For on ises' to be of the most vociferous expres- public enthustasm since Col A.

RECORD REGISTRATION IN SOUTHERN SECTION Both Sides Claim Increased Backing; Reed to Cut Into Their Support. By GRAFTON WILCOX, Special to The Washington Post. San Francisco, April 28.—California’s primary eiection in May is filled with uncertainty, as far as the prospects for controlling the delegation to the Demo- cratic national convention at Houston is concerned, in spite of the claims of the rival managers of Gov. Smith, Senator Walsh and Senator Reed. The Republicans have but one ticket the field—the delegation of 29 lerbert in _ Hoover and as a consequence there is a general apathy among the members of the party which predominates in this State by almost a 3 to 1 ratio. Despite the three-cornered fight for the control ‘of the Democratic delegation unbiased observers. detect signs of apathy in some sections on the part of the Demo- crats as well as the Republicans. It is upon this uncertainty as to the ‘size of the vote at the coming primary election as well as to the effect of the Teligious question involved in the Democratic struggle that makes it im- possible for those close to the situa- tion to do more than speculate as to the probable outcome. Smith-McAdoo Bitterness. The religious angle to the fight has -.@ direct bearing upon the principal is- sue involved in the Democratic row, that of the prohibition question. The fight in California which will “have a Nation-wide scope as far as the Smith candidacy for the presidential nomination is concerned, “around the bitterness between the Mc- -Adoo and Smith factions which result- ed from the 1924 struggle for the presi- dential nomination. On the side of McAdoo, now a Cali- fornia resident, and the leader of the delegation pledged to Senator Walsh of ‘Montana, are lined up the Antisaloon ‘League forces, those Protestant clergy- “men who are taking a hand in the con- test, the bulk of the Woodrow Wilson Democrats and the drys in party ranks. Gov. Smith has the support of the ‘wing of the party led by former United ‘Both Phelan and Dockweiler States Senator James D. Phelan, of San Francisco, and National Committeeman Isidore B. Dockweiler, of Los Angeles are wet ‘and Catholics. Phelan Strong in North Section. Phelan’s chief strength lies in north- ern California. He is a former Mayor of San Francisco and will swing the big Democratic yote of this city to Smith. The dry McAdoo following in this State heretofore has included a Protes- -tant majority and whatever strength the Ku Kian Klan had in the Demo- cratic party. With Walsh as McAdoo’s candidate, there is grave doubt as to -Whether or not this vote will go to the polls at all. As a consequence, the drys are in a way to lose a considerable vote which they would ordinarily get. The Reed campaign which has re- ceived impetus from time to time from the Hearst newspapers has made headway only in spots and the gen- eral consensus is that the Missouri sen- ator’s delegation will be in third place in the balloting. The Reed delegates ‘Rre not as well Known as are those on the Smith and Walsh tickets and there are no outstanding names on the Reed group. Reed is the only candidate who made a personal appearance in this State. He was received fairly well in Southern California, but was given only a mild reception here. Democratic Registration Big. Although the Democratic registration for the coming primary is the greatest doubtful of success. ’ in the State’s history, 466,793, the Walsh Managers are fearful of a@ light vote If there is a light vote or if Reed cuts more heavily into the Walsh vote in southern California than he does into the Smith total, the McAdoo men are They believe that the Smith supporters will be more apt to vote than will those favoring Walsh because of the difference in the charac- teristics of the two followings. Walsh managers bank on the heavy ary registration in southern California to swing the State for them, while the Smith contingent declare that they are responsible for the heavy registration and will profit particularly in the cities and in the counties of northern Cali- fornia which voted wet in 1926. At each successive election California has given a bigger dry majority. In 1926 an attempt to repeal the Wright dry act enforcement law was defeated by 56,366 votes. The twelve counties in southern California which at present have a Democratic registration of 243,- 622 out of the 465,793 in the State gave @ dry majority of 111,960. The 46 other counties of the State voted wet by 54,694 and of this total the San Francis- co wet majority was 54,310. ; 1926 Fight Is Recalled. ‘At the August primary election in 1926 the Democratic party was torn asunder by a fight between the McAdoo and the anti-McAdoo faction over the nomination of a candidate for United States senator. McAdoo threw his strength to John B. Elliott, of Los An- geles, a former Federal office holder, as against National Committeeman Dock- Weiler, who was charged with being in alliance with Smith and Tammany Hall. Elliott is a dry and is one of the McAdoo spokesmen in the present con- test. Dockweiler was attacked on the grounds that he was a wet, a Catholic and a Smith man, and Elliott won out by more than 26,900 votes, capturing all but a few counties of the State. Pockweiler won in San Francisco and in several other wet counties. ." ‘The Elliott-Dockweiler fight is being, pointed to by the Walsh managers a: roof that the ticket headed by McAdvu» ll win on Tuesday next.

The Christian Scientists are active politically in several sections of the State. State Henry H. Democratic Chairman for Smith. McPike. state chairman of tie central the party, is the head of the Smith campaign organization. The State or- ganization, however, is torn apart the fight over the delegation. and that the dry forces have been beaten down by the consistent and persistent campaign which has been waged throughout the State and which has included a speaking tour partici- pated in by former Senator Phelan, former Gov. Nellie Ross of Wyoming, Dudley Field Malone, of New York, and many local Democratic leaders. McPike calls attention to the creased registration in Alameda, Francisco, Sacramento, Sonoma, and other. counties in- San Cen- He declares that the feeling that Gov. Smith is the most available man for the nomination and the one with the best chance of defeating the Republi- can nominee has swung the bulk of the Democratic vote to Smith, regard- less of wet and dry leanings. McPike’s presence in the campaign is due to his loyalty to the Democratic | organization of which Senator Phelan is the head. McPike’s lead has been followed by others in the past whose support otherwise would not have been given to Smith. “In my judgment San Francisco will give the Phelan ticket for Smith a lead of nearly 20,000 votes; the other dis- tricts in the State north of the Teha- chapi will add an additional 20,000; the districts comprising southern Cali- fornia can not possibly offset this big vote,””’ McPike declared. Smith Strong Around Frisco. Eight counties in Southern Califor- nia which MePtke is willing to con- cede is dry territory and leans to the McAdoo faction, have a Democratic rezistration about 35,000 less than the territory which McPike claims for Smith. He also points out that the southern California vote, particularly in Los Angeles County, is less in pro- portion than in the North. “In my judgment there never and is not now any doubt that Gov. Smith will carry California and nominated at Houston,” McPike said. From surveys made in San Francisco and the counties immediately adjoin- Was campaign were to be decided in this overwhelming vote. Talk of the Smith candidacy is heard everywhere, but practically no mention is made of either of the other two Democratic candidates. John B. Elliott, representing McAdoo, who promised to come into the State and speak for the Walsh ticket, but has failed to do so, challenges this state- ment of McPike, declaring that “the alignment is the same today as far as Walsh and Smith are concerned as It was in the 1926 senatorial fight hbe- tween Dockweiler and myself and we won by a handsome majority.” Only Three-Sided Contest. The present contest is a clean-cut one between Smith, Walsh and Reed and will furnish the only contest of its kind in the primaries of the coun- try. The wet and dry and religious issues are mingled in the campaign and it is generally agreed that the re- sult in California will have a direct bearing upon the final outcome of the Houston national convention. “The defeat of the Smith candidacy in California will mean that Smith’s can- didacy at Houston will meet with dis- aster, for he will be without the sup- port of the West and the South,” El- liott says. “McAdoo, as the leader of the dry, progressive, Woodrow Wilson Democrats, is representative of at least 50 per cent of the party, nationally speaking, and a victory for the Walsh ticket which he heads will have an ef- fect throughout the country. California is McAdoo’s home State and the fact that he has thrown his strength behind Walsh makes the May primary the out- standing one of the campaign,” Elliott says. In an effort to bolster up the Reed campaign money and men have been sent in from the East, but the closest observers can find only scattered sup- port for the delegation favoring the Missouri senator. It is generally agreed, however, that Reed will cut into the vote of the other two candidates and that the extent of this cut will not be known until the polls have been closed and the results disclosed. Los Angeles County, with 59 per cent of the State’s registered vote within her borders, is the battle ground of the present campaign. All factions have focused their activities there during the past few weeks, There are approximate- ly 36,500 more Democrats registered at present in Los Angeles County than were there for the 1924 presidential pri- maries. Both Smith and Walsh man- agers claim the credit for the increased registration. Mer, Mooney Sees Pope. Rome.

Smith Has Big Lead Special to The Washington Post. Charlotte, N. C., April 28.—On the ‘final day of the Observer's presidential] ‘preference poll, which has run several weeks, a total of 14,104 ballots has been received—6,129 Democratic and 7,975 Republican. Of these, Smith got 3,594, McAdoo 1,259, Reed 270, McLean 193, George 75, Baker 65, Walsh 65, Blease 54, Heflin 54, Young 41, Morrison 28, Donahey 36 and scattering 65. Of the Republican votes, Hoover got 579, Coolidge 149, Lowden 144, Johnson 35, Dawes 23 and scattering 20. Richmond County gave two-thirds of its votes to Smith.

He gave notice that he expected to carry on to the finish against the bill, At the outset yesterday, Johnson charged that a filibuster ex- isted against his measure and this went unchallenged by Ashurst. The Cali- fornian then announced he would em- ploy all rules to block it. Senators Much Interested. Senator Ashurst’s fight attracted the close attention of the Senate. During much of the time he flourished a wand which he was using to point out spots on a huge map of the Colorado River Basin which hung from the wall in the rear of the chamber. At one juncture, Ashurst emphasized a point by swinging down his long right arm with a resounding thud on a desk just behind Senator Walsh (Demo- crat) of Montana. Senator Walsh Started, and two books lying on the desk were catapulted to the floor., With his hair disheveled and his voice growing weak, Senator Ashurst was re- minded by Senator Walsh (Democrat). Massachusetts, to “take it easy,” but he replied that “let no man have fear of my voice giving out, of my knees weakening, or of my back giving away.” “I may stumble,” he continued, “but my colleague will pick me up. There are others here who are ready and there might be more if it were not for presi- dential candidates. Get that?” Senator Pittman (Democrat), Nevada consumed much of the debate, urging his amendment which was approved in committee to permit the payment of 18% per cent each to Arizona and Nevada from the excess profits of reve- nues from power sales from the project. dramatic openin’ , Senator Oddie (Republican), of Nevada, gave unstinted praise to the selection Boulder Canyon as the site for the proposed dam to be built in the Colo- irado River.

The choice of a candidate whose name would supplant that of Madden on the November ballot is a matter for the dis- trict committee of the Republican party, the attorney for the election commissioners held today. This body would be the ward committeemen for the five South Side wards in the First congressional district. Two of the committeemen are ne- groes. A third is John Oberta, chosen committeeman at the April 10 primary, which also saw him nominated for the State General Assembly. Mr. Madden, in a predominantly ne- gro district, won his twelfth renomina- tion only after Mayor William Hale Thompson and other white leaders had waged a strenuous contest in his be- half. Ww, however, Madden’s defeated ne- gro Opponent, W. L. Dawson, and sev- eral other negroes have been thrust for- ward. Dawson, who was a candidate on the ticket sponsored by United States Sen- ator Charles S. Deneen, has laid claim to the nomination, since the certificate of nomination had not been issued to Madden before he died. a | 000 Wound Papers Remain Undelivered More than 6,000 World War wound certificates still remain undelivered, the War Department announced yes- terday, in connection with a sugges- tion that medals be issued to individ- uals who were wounced in the World War.

PROHIBITION IS IGNORED AT REPUBLICAN DINNER | Both Parties Have Scandals; Partisan Fencing Does Not Suffice, He Says. en ne ee Chicago, April 28 Republican party leaders that corrup- tion will be one of the outstanding issues in the coming presidential cam- paign, Senator Borah, of Idaho, de- clared here tonight that party success | is dependent upon giving the people courageous leaders, clean candidates, decent organizations and a piatform of principles. “Give the voters these,” he said in an address at the annual dinner of the Hamilton Club, strate that the Republican party be- longs to neither crooks nor cowards— refuse them these things and 1 leave the future to tell its own story. In such an event, I do not seek to pene- trate the veil.”’ In delivering his first preconvention speech, Senator Borah, who has been the Republican presiden- chose clean his topic rather than the issue, an issue which he has given notice he will carry to the country be- fore the Kansas City convention Corruption Held Sure Issue. “Corruption will undoubtedly be one of the issues of this campaign,” he told a large group of prominent publicans gathered around the dinner table. “We can not avoid it if we would and we should not avoid it if we could. There are those, of course, who will charge that the party as a has forfeited its right to the confidence of the American peopie. In such an event, there wiil be those who will re- tort by hunting out the show that there are corrupt Democrats, “The Queensboro scandal in New York and the oil scandal will take their place in campaign literature. Teapot Dome and Tammany Hall will be weighed acainst each other on the hustings, and urged to decide be- corruption, party government as “But I beg the Republican to believe that the issue in which the people are interested is broader and ceeper. The issue is, as they see it: Shall the people have clean government and clean politics; how is it proposed to protect the interest of the people against the domination of selfish and cecmmercial influences in the affairs of rovernment and in the domination of parties? The improper use of money in politics presents a problem as_ broad and cGeep and vital as representative democracy itself, and the people know i Partisan Fencing Not Enough. “Partisan fencing will not atisfy them. Purity of the ballot and integrity of officials are the beginning and the end of popular government. Without tirese the people are disfranchised and, sooner or later, become the victims of exploitation and oppression and this they know. The fight for clean gov- ernment is a fight for free government This the people perfectly understand “The issue is here. It is a notorious fact that the officials of great cities, who hold in their Keeping the decency and health of millions of men and wom- en and children, go into partnership with crime and lawlessness, It ts now notorious that the governors of great States, trusted executives of great states, trusted executives of great and noble Commonwealths, barter’ their State’s honor for a few paltry dollars thiat men high in the Federal Govern- ment consort with those who seek Nation’s wealth, that. venality is filth in the: exalted Federal power. “The issue is here. It is no ordinary Situation, The future of our party turns upon how we propose to meet it. Timidity has no place in such a fight. Silence is accessory after the crime Retention of corrupt funds while talk- ing about clean politics is an insult to the intelligence of the voter. We need not have the least uneasiness about Support from the people. They will re- spond to any sincere and fearless effort to lift the Republican party to the level of the demands of the hour. Voters No Less Devoted. “The questions and problems of this day which now confront the party are no less vital, no less commanding, than the questions and problems of former days. The voters, the rank and file of the party, are no less intelli- gent, no less devoted to wise measures and good government. The issues are before us, the people await their pres- entation. The times and the occasion persist for great causes. And it is my judgment that the future of the Re- publican party is merely a test of lead- ership. The perils of political parties ordinarily lie not among the voters and the people but are found in the or- ganizations and among the leaders. “The Federalist party, with its galaxy of brilliant leaders, lost touch with the people, disregarded their individual! rights and liberties, and it perished. The Democratic party, with Jefferson as its leader, took its place in the ad- ministration of government. The Whig party was wrecked and disappeared ut- terly, in consequence of a contempt for the inflexible integrity of the moral code upon the part of those who in a critical hour dominated its councils. The Republican party, with Abraham Lincoln as its leader, took its place. Moral Law Does Not Change. “Opinions alter, times change, ma- terial issues cormne and go, but the moral law and the great fundamental prin- ciples of right and decency do not change—they still have their place in the purposes and plans and hearts and minds of the American people. “I would not overlook the _ great questions which make for our material welfare. Our tax laws; our revenue laws; economy in government; the re- habilitation of the farm; the control of our rivers; the staying of the growth of bureaucracy, arbitrary as fascism, demoralizing as communism; the con- servation of the nation’s natural wealth; coal, oil, power; all these are of great moment and of great interest to the American people. “But I would place above them all in the platform and in the program and in the purposes of the party, as first in imminence and program and in the purposes of the party, as first in imminence and first in importance, @ pure ballot, a clean government and the integrity of the constitution under which we live.” Arizona’s 9 Delegates Called Lowden Men Tucson, Ariz., April 28 (A.P.).—Ari- zona will send an uninstructed delega- tion of nine to the Republican national convention at Kansas City, it was de- cided tcday at the State Republican convention here.

On the other havwud some say that if the vote is confined Jargely to the “regulars” the advantage will be with Senator Watson. There is talk that “way down deep’’ the average Republican voter in Indiana desires a house cleaning; that he is em- barrassed by the disclosures relative to the subserviency of various attaches ot the Jackson administration and other higher-ups to D. C. Stephenson until he was removed from the political stage to become a life convict for murder ani that the average voter is eager to sup- port candidates who did not have the slightest contact with Stephenson, the Ku Klux Klan and other units of the supergovernment in this State. How deep this feeling is Is a matter of speculation, but it is being said by some who have gone into the situation carefully that there is nothing on the surface to indicate there will be a turn over in Indiana as there was in Illinois, at least not un‘'l the issue is presented Resent- over conditions which have pre- vailled and a conviction that there wil] be little or no change regardless of the however, to ve much of the apparent apathy.

MAY PASS THIS WEEK Surrender Of Administration on Auto Levy Has Expe- dited Decision. REGRETED BY COOLIDGE |a@ result, (Associated Press.) With the issue over tax well drawn between Republicans and Democrats a quick decision is expected in the Senate this week, when the $203 000,000 measure is brought up for consideration. Surrender of the administration group to demands for repeal of the 3 per cent automobile tax—a tax which both President Coolidge and Secretary Mel- lon had urged strongly should be re- tained—has wiped out one of the main fights in prospect on the bill. Decision of Senate Republicans the finunce committee to repeal tax, also was voted by the House, is regretted by President Coolidge. He feels that the 3 per cent levy offered a means for the automobile industry and users to meet in part the large on this appropriations for highway construction and improvements. However. Mr. Coolidge is disposed to favor the bill inasmuch as it comes within range of the $200,000.000 limita- ae oes = - oe tion set by the Treasury. The House voted a $290,000,000 cut. The Presi- dent realizes it is the province of Con- gress to determine how revenues should be raised and lowered and his chief concern was that the budget should balance. With Democrats united for repeal of the automobile tax and many of their own party in favor of it, Republican leaders in the Senate decided to yleld to the inevitable and grant this re- duction in the first instance in order to make up additional revenue from other sources.

When John Philip Sousa was taking his first lessons in solfeggio—which, in common parlance, is the do. re, me, fa, 80, la, si, do of music—Washington was ® smali Southern town divided into precincts popularly called the Navy Yard, Capitol Hill, Northern Liberties, the Island and Swamp Poodle. Since the first two locations obtain today, it may be well to state here that the Island was anywhere south of Pennsyl- Vania avenue between Tiber Creek and the Potomac River; Swamp Poodle was over back of where the Union Station now nestles, were out Seventh street wavy. Since the days of John Philip Sousa’s | Boyhood, when he decided not to be a to the Nation—and to Washington; in fact, to the world. Most of these Mr. Sousa has set down in his book—a com- plete biography—just off the press and published by a firm that has one Wash- ingtonian at its head—Weston B. Flint, vice president of the newly formed pub- lishing firm of Hale, Cushman & Flint, Boston, responsible for the volume, “Marching Along.” The book is fit- tingly published on the thirtieth an- Niversary of the writing of “The Stars and Stripes,” Sousa’s popular march. Band Leader Under Five Presidents. As the march king—a title conferred upon him by an English music critic— Mr, Sousa has done his share of march- ing along. With his various bands— first with the United States Marine Band here, and later, for 30-odd years, with his own—he has marched the length and breadth of the world. His experiences, naturally, have been many and manifold. ‘All these, or most of them, he has set down on the pages of his new book, which thus becomes practically a history of the times in which he has lived. Sousa, be it un- derstood, saw service as a band leader under five Presidents of the United States and he came to know some of these intimately. One of the charms vf the book is his naive comment on old ‘Washington. A Navy Yard boy, John Philip Sousa was about 11 years old when the Civil War came to end. He was born down on Seventh street southeast on the 6th of November, 1854. He witnessed the grand review of the Federal forces, the men who survived the war. between the States and marched up Pennsylvania avenue to be reviewed by the President of a reunited country. All this he tells in his stirring story—and more. He tells of his early struggles as a musi- cian; of his apprenticeship to the Ma- rines, an event that took place on June 9, 1868, and of which much was to come, for there he learned to play the trombone—a valuable acqulsition to him when afterward he was to be sec- ond trombonist with the band and later its leader. Sousa Is Young at 74. Sousa, in his seventy-fourth year, Is as young and spry as ever. His band last year completed its thirty-third an- nual tour of the country—and is still going strong, with the Grand Old Man of Music at its head. As the march king, the veteran tells with great gusto of one march that helped make him famous. It was the celebrated march mamed after this newspaper, “The Washington Post.” This celebrated march was written in 1889. At that time The Washington Post, in order to encourage literary ex- pression in the public schools, organ- ized what then was known as The Washington Post Amateur Authors’ As- sociation. Prizes and medals were given for the best essays written by pu- pils in the graded schools. The un- dertaking was heartily indorsed by the then superintermient of schools, W. B. Powell. Frank Hatton, one of the pro- prietors of The Post, was instrumental in getting Sousa interested. He asked the leader of the Marine Band to write a march for the contest and to play it for the first time when the prizes were awarded. Sousa acquiesced, and dedi- cated his work to Frank Hatton and Beriah Wilkins. The first copy of the original bore on the cover a reproduc- tion of the first page of The Washing- ton Post. 22,000 Heard Post March, It was down on the Smithsonian grounds that some 22,000 persons as- gembled one day to hear the final awards of The Washington Post Ama- teur Authors’ Association. It was there and then that “The Washington Post March” was first heard in public. It went like wildfire. From here the strains reached to th far ends of the world. As Mr. Sousa recounts it in his memoirs, wherever he has been, no matter in what land, he has heard the strains of “The Washington Post.” Years ago, in England, Germany and continental countries, the march formed the basis of a two-step—and so @ march, written at the suggestion of @ celebrated editor of The Washington Post, helped carry the bandmaster’s fame abroad. Sousa tells interestingly of his early memories of Washington—from the time he was 2 boy and heard faint rumors of Earley’s raid, until as a man, he conducted the United States Marine Band through several administrations. The celebrated bandmaster in his journeyings around the country and the world has met many interesting people in all walks of life. The subtitle to his book, “Recollections of Men, Women and Music,” is comprehensive and gives some idea of the store of in- formation contained within its covers. Tells of Eventful Life. To hit the high spots, from the day when he first took his juvenile music lessons here under the careful direction of Prof. Esputa, John Philip Sousa tells of his first concert, as a violinist, at St. Elizabeths Asylum, across the river; of his first engagement as orchestra lead- er at the old Kernan Theater Comique outdoor garden; of his little Quadrille Band that plaved for dances; of his laying first vioiin in Ford’s Opera use when the Alic Oates Opera Com- pany was the main attraction—and so on, through his career as bandsman ex- traordinary through the Harrison and Cleveland administrations. Sousa has played by royal command before the crowned heads of Europe. He has had about every honor that can be conferred on an American musician by his own people—and he is convinced that America is the Land of Oppor- tunity. He has had fortune smile upon him, as he tells in his book, and he has had its disfavor. Money came to him in untold quantities and he let fortune slip through his fingers by not what to demand and the Northern Liberties ' wees ee a ee Pk —— — ee a ~ wae wwe Se CORON Ph.

DISTURBING OF HARMONY IN THE SOCIETY ALLEGED Petition at Boston Is Filed With National Board of Management. Bosion, April 28 (A.P.).—Mrs. Helen Tufts Bailie, direct descendant of a revolutionary hero, and leader of an in- surgent group within the Daughters of tne American Revolution, today faced the necessity of defending herself against formal charges designed to cen- sure her and suspend or oust her from that organization. The woman who recently exposed the existence in this State of a “blacklist” against numerous well Known public persons for their views allegedly in op- position to D. A. R. national policies, declared she would “fight to the end.” Charges in Filed Petition. The charges against her were con- tained in a petition filed with the na- tional board of management of the or- ganization and signed by nineteen of- ficers and members, including Mrs. Sarah E. Guernsey, honorary president general and Agnes Holton Banks, vice president general and five State regents. Mrs. Bailie is charged with having conducted herself in a way “calculated to disturb the harmony and injure the good name of the national society.” Mrs. Bailie first came into public notice in connection with the an- nounced advocacy by national officers of the pending naval construction pro- gram. She headed a delegation last February of fourteen insurgent mem- bers and officers of three Boston chap- ters, which submitted a petition to the president general, protesting against the D. A. R. position with reference to the naval program. Also Revealed “Blacklist.” The same petition stirred public con- troversy by the revelation of the exist- ence of a “blacklist” in Massachusetts. Later Mrs. Bailie exposed the blacklist, which carried on its rolls as “un- patriotic” the names of many promi- nent men, including rationally known clergymen and educators. The recent national convention of the D. A. R. at Wasiiington rejected by an overwhelming vote a move to cen- sure the socieiy’s national officers in connectoin with che blacklist. Mrs. Bailie was not a dclegate to the con- vention, but was ia Washingtoi while it was in session. If the charges are sustained by the board of management. Mrs. Bailie will have the right to appeal to the next national convention, D. A. R. Pin Sale Dispute Is Taken Into Court Here | The cquity division of the District of Columbia Supreme Court was asked yesterday to enjoin the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revo- lution from interfering with the alleged exclusive right of Mrs. Ellenore Dutcher Key, of Baltimore, Md., widow of John Ross Key, a descendent of Francis scott Key, to the manufacture and sale of what is known as the Recogni- tion Pin, an emblem of the society in- tendcd for informal wear. Through Attorneys Leckie, Cox and Sherier the plaintiff says that in 1901 the society rejected a proposal of its jeweler to supply the pins, and request- ed her to undertake to supply the pins at $1 each of which 10 per cent was to go toward the building fund. Shortly afterward the plaintiff says, she was given an exclusive contract to run for the period of her life and to be annulled only after one year’s notice by the society. During the past 26 years, the plaintiff declares, she has sold thousands of the pins and on oc- casions has lost her own money in exe- cuting the contract. The design of this pin is patented and one of them was placed in the corner stone of the Me- morial Continental Hall as the author- ized official emblem. At the twenty-sixth annual session of the society, it is charged, an alleged spurious pin was adopted which is manufactured by a jeweler of Philadel- phia, Pa., to be sold for $4.75 without a penny profit to the society. The plaintiff protested against the introduction of the alleged spurious pin, she says, but her protests went unheeded. Her efforts to dispose of more pins have been hampered by the officers of the society in various ways, it is alleged. The plaintiff also alleges that she did not receive the required notice of the breaching of her contract, and she asks that the court award her damages for the alleged unlawful and arbitrary acts of the society.

THE WASHINGTON POST: a a SUNDAY, ‘APRIL —— 29; 1928. ' THE CHESS WORLD] Aa By WILLARD H. MUTCHLER. “Yast-minute dispatches from Detroit até to the effect that the chess and radio experts of that city have com- bined and made arrangements to play a. five or six board match with this olty today. C. A. Robst, in charge of the/activities at Detroit, writes that he has tentatively lined up his team as follows: Sammy Reshevsky, Leon Stol- cémberg, Newell Banks, Marvin Palmer, S; .%. Van Noorden and E. Wieselberg. Bahks’ name is the only doubtful one in the list and should he be unable to play, Detroit desires the match to be one of five boards. They intend to play from the private residence of the radio operator, E. Colliau. “In this city, owever, it is problem- atical as to whether or not a suffi- clehtly strong team can be mustered oh. such short notice capable of giving battle to the Detroiters. Radio experts of this city also remain to be lined up. Ig* the event that the match takes place the play in this city will prob- ably be from the residence of either W.'M. Smith, Miss Elizabeth Zandonini or ‘Brewster Marshall, president of the Washington Radio Club. se Notes. ‘Norman T. Whitaker, well-known lo- cal. master, and present United States tournament champion, recently gave an exhibition of his skill at simultaneous play in the city of Providence, R. I.

At the conclusion of the ceremonies the planes will be given an official send-off. Route Record for Length. The new air line will be 1,242 miles long and is said to be the longest ever opened in the United States at one time. The stops along the way are Philadelphia. Washington, Richmond, Greensboro, Spartanburg, Birmingham and Mobile. Pitcairn will operate a fleet of eight planes over the line. Six pilots will carry the mail. The New York-New Orleans line 1s comparable in importance to the other large air lines, such as the trahsconti- nental, inasmuch as it brings the entire Southeastern section of the country into the air mail system of the United States. Later Pitcairn will extend tits service from Atlanta to Miami to con- nect with the Pan-American Airways planes to Havana. The company also has submitted its bid tur an extension from New Orleans to Laredo, Tex.. where the proposed Mexican air mail from Mexico City will terminate. Inasmuch as the planes between New York and Atlanta will fly entirely during night the Department of Com- merce has installed beacons at inter- vals of 10 miles all along the course, as well as emergency landing fields with telephones and gasoline and oil sup- plies every 30 miles. The Weather Bu- reau has organized a complete weather reporting service for the line, and the Department of Commerce is to operate a radio beacon on the New Brunswick to Washington section of the route, Opening Was Delayed, The service was to have been opened several months ago, but the difficulties encountered by the Department of Commerce in providing the equipment delayed the inauguration of the route This work is now complete—the first time, in fact, that a route has been fully equipped with beacons and emer- Te eee, et ee See Ee vege SEPP Bay Be ee a sd AP ; Stes Volks 7 nh th Beck he 2 BS Sa ae Sd ay bie ae WE res SUN —— —— New York nightly at 11:30 and will de- part at 11:45.

The cost of sending mail over the route will be 10 cents per half ounce. The pilots on the route will be: A. M. Banks, Verne E. Treat, Sydney Mol- loy, Eugene R. Brown and John 8 Kytle. Edward J. Morrissey, the sixth pilot, will be on reserve in Richmond where the service shops for the planes are located. The planes are the Pit- cairn Mailwings. They have a very ex- cellent stability making it possible for them to get the mail through under unfavorable weather.

Flying and Fliers By LE ROY WHITMAN IRDMEN’S dreams of an _ ideal B training center will be more nearly realized than ever before in the completion of the new training center for Army fliers, made possible by the gift of approximately 2,400 acres of land to the Government by business men of San Antonio, Tex. The site is near the town of Schertz, about 15 miles northeast of the center of San Antonio. The new site ultimately will house all the heavier-than-air filying training schools of the Army Air Corps. Plans formulated in the office of the chief of the Air Corps contemplate the con- struction jn the fiscal year 1929 of a station for the first unit to house the Primary Flying School now operating at March Field, Riverdale, Calif. The following fiscal year construction will be started on buildings to take care of the Primary Flying School now at Brooks Field, Tex., and either in 1931 or 1932 the Advanced School at Kelly Field will begin to move to the new field, So huge is the new field that the buildings will be erected in the center within a circle 4,200 feet in diameter with 34 hangars facing outward from the perimeter. Within the circle will be a number of groups of buildings one comprising the school buildings for the primary and advanced classes and another comprising the airplane as- sembly buildings, machine shops, ware- houses, quartermaster warehouses and maintenance buildings, bakery, garage and guard house. The fire house will be located so that it will be accessible to the entire post. The location of the other buildings, such -as the Enlisted Men’s Club. post exchange, theater and gymnasium, chapel and hospital, will be so that they can best serve the sta- All buildings will be 'of Spanish architectural type.

A great deal of comment was occasioned by the appearance and performance of the first one of the sis- ter ships of the Spfrit of St. Louis to be equipped for water landings. Work of installing the sea gear was done in the hangar at the naval air station under the direction of B. V. Korvin-Kroukovsky, chief engineer of the Edo Aircraft Corporation, who came from New York especially for the task, and Herbert Fahy, chief pilot at the Washington Airport. Mr. Fahy will leave for San Diego this week to ferry back the fourth Ryan for use on the proposed passenger line. Steuart A. Reiss returned to Washing- ton Airport Thursday with a new Waco for delivery to George Babcock. Two pilots will take ships to Winchester, Va., this week for exhibition and passenger carrying during the apple-blossom fes- tival there. Clyde Newman, aviation mechanic, formerly with the Potomac Flying Serv- ice, has joined the forces at the Wash- ington Airport. Charles Coles, aviation mechanic at Washington Airport, may soon go to New York to aid in making arrangements for mechanical facilities at that terminal. With an air mail route system total- ing 3,017 miles, linking the Pacific Coast cities with the East, North and South, Boeing Air Transport and Pacific Air Transport flew 179,187 miles during March, according to a report issued last week by W.

Announcement that the Potomac Flying Service, at Hoover Field, has taken over the agency for this terri- tory for the Travel Air biplane, was made last week by Andrew Nash, sec- retary of the firm. The first new Travel Air was delivered to the fleld Tuesday. Henry Berliner, president, and Lowell Harding, vice president and general manager, flew to Teterboro, N. J., in a Berliner monoplane. They returned Friday. Another indication of the responsive- ness of business organizations to cater to the needs of the aircraft industry came last week when the National Lumber Manufacturers Association is- sued a 24-page booklet on the subject “Airplane Hangar Construction.” The publication was prepared by the engineering department of the associa- tion with a view to meeting the need for advice and direction in the con- struction of hangars at costs which will not unduly handicap the develop- ment of the air fields. It summarizes the organization’s conception of the important considerations governing air- port establishment and the structural and service requirements for hangars. Complete working drawings, bills of materials and estimated costs are given for four types of hangars, ranging from the single plane size to the large mu- nicipal type hangar.

Fess, of Ohio, started his keynote speech with “Hurrah for Coolidge!” and again “Hur- rah for Coolidge!” From White Honse. “Senator Fess did not mention Mr. Coolidge a third time,” the story con- tinued. “At this point in the proceed- ings the following telegram was re- Telegram ceived from the White House and read | to the convention: ‘Have a heart. There are plenty of great Republicans better able than I am to stand four more years of Gridiron dinners.’ “When the telegram was read Chalir- man Butler, Secretary Mellon and Dewey Hilles left the hall to get. Wash- ington by long distance.” The correspondent found that man who nominated Herbert Hoover had in reality placed California in nomination. A parade of States was started in honor of Hoover, thought to be led by Hiram Johnson until it was the found that he was merely leaving the | convention hall. “Chairman Butler, Secretary Mellon and Dewey Hilles just returned from the long distance telephone,” the story continued. “They look unhappy.” “A man from Vermont just shouted: ‘What's the matter with Coolidge?’ Chairman Butler, Secretary Mellon and Dewey Hilles ran to get Washington on long-distance again to find out.” Parade in Lowden and Dawes. After a parade of States was started in honor of Gov. Lowden, the marchers cheering lustily for Vice Dawes, the correspondent Chairman Butler, Secretary Mellon and Dewey Hilles returning from the tele- phone looking “unhappler.” As the roll call started, Alabama withheld its vote because Bascom Slemp was not back from luncheon and Chairman Butler, Secretary Mellon and Dewey Hilles ran for the telephone, “for a final long-distance telephone call to Washington.” At this point an assistant corresjond- ent ran in to state “the convention adjourned until tomorrow in great con- fusion. Chairman Butler, Secretary Mellon and Dewey Hilles returned from the last talk to Washington by long- distance. Senator Butler mounted the platform and with tears streaming down his face turned the picture of President Coolidge to the wall.” “So he won’t risk catching cold in a| draft?” asked the correspondent, “Then all three of them collapsed,” added his assistant. “So, of. course, there was no use going on with the roll call when there was nobody to cast a vote in Massachusetts, New York and Pennsylvania.” Waricd of Tammany. By special arrangement, the Gridion singers presented “Gen. Sam Houston of Texas and the Texas Rangers.” Fore- warned that the “Toughest Indians tin the world—Tammany Braves” were out to steal the Democratic mule, Gov. Dan Moody of Texas had his Rangers out in an attempt to stop the theft. The Braves of Gov. Smith, who was depicted as an Indian wearing a brown derby, turned out to be highly polished gentle- men with top hats—‘The new Tam- many model, designed especially for 1928.” To the tune of “Give My Regards to Broadway” they sang: We are the boys from Broadway, The Bowery and Union Square; These are the duds we wear on Houston street In honor of our mayor; This is the way we're learning To mingle with the White Hous: throng. W get th’ tip from Boss Olvany That we'll all be there ere long. Gov. Ritchie of Maryland, Senator | James A. Reed, of Missour!, and Senator Thomas J. Walsh, of Montana, were brought on as candidates who might possibly stop the nomination of Gov. Smith. “If any of you Democrats are look- ing for trouble, you've come to the right place,” said Gov. Dan Moody, whereupon the club sang to the tune of “My Melancholy Baby:” Bring along your trouble-lovin’ babies, Come dow: here and get your due. All your boasts are foolish fancy, maybe; You know, we are just as tough as you, Ev'ry man must be his own protector When the Houston sun _ shines through. Peace we'll have from you As you ballot and you stew, Or else we shall be marching slow for you. Havana Drama Given. A drama, “Blood and Sand,” or “Fun in the Tropics,” picturing the Pan- American Conference at Havana, was next put on by the music committee. To the tune of “Ol Man River,” a current hit in the revue “Show Boat,” the member taking the part of Mr. Kel- logg sang: . Ol man Borah, dat ol man Borah, He must say somethin’, but don’t know nothin’; He just keeps growlin’, he just keeps growlin’ along; He don’t like London, he hates Geneva, He keeps the world in a constant fever, This ol man Borah, who just keeps growlin’ along. Dawes Lucky Winner, Vice President Dawes was pictured by members of the club as the lucky winner of the Republican nomination after the convention had killed off both Hoover and Lowden. In the guise of bringing in a message from the Senate, the quartet to the tune of “When the Harvest Days Are Over” sang the chorus: “When the Hoover show no new sup- porter draws And the Lowden forces grow cold on his cause, They will gather in a room And they'll start a night club boom, And the lucky one we hear is Charlie Dawes.” To the tune of “They Wouldn’t Be- lieve Me,” President Coolidge was told: “But when I told them How positive you were, They didn’t believe me; They try to deceive me; Your Black Hills’ words, Your statement here Are doubted in a campaign a ycar. You're the likeliest bet That some can see, So when I told them, And you cert-n'ly know I’ve told them, That from the White House desk you wished to go, They never believed me, They never believed me, | That to this third term chance you’ve answered NO!” A member in the role of Frank W. Stearns, close personal friend of the President, twe porters carrying his )sag- gage, sang the following lament to, the tune of “Mammy’s Little Coal Bjack od : The States The Vice President of the secretary of State. The Ambassador from Germany. The Speaker of the ‘House of Rep- resentatives. ' : , Minister from Canada. Secretary of the Treasury. Attorney General. . Postmaster General. The Secretary of the Navy.

MORE USES PREDICTED “Electricity has already cut my chores in two and has gone a long way toward solving the hired-man problem. A hired Man usually costs me $50 a month and Board. If I can get my electric bill up to $50 and receive as much in propor- tion as I have already received for about $9 a month, I will have the value of six hired men and then some.” This is a statement by one Ellis Haunes, Michigan farmer of Inaham County, who for the past nine months has been operating his 240 acres with the help of electricity. Up to nine months ago he had kerosene lamps, a Windmill water system, a gas engine milking machine and no equipment. nearer than 5 miles, for grinding feed for his dairy cows. Starting out only with Hghts when the power was first introduced to his and twelve neighboring farms, Mr. Haunes soon installed, among other things, an automatic pressure water aystem, an electric milking machine and several aids for his wife, such as a washing machine and troner. The milk- ing machine alone reduced his labor 50 per cent and resulted in an increased milk flow, he said. Another use on which he kept a close check was silo filling. The en- silage cutter was operated with a five- fillingthe silo with the aid of one man was $198 for current. Regarding the milking machine operation, Mr. Haunes found that he saved $5.86 a month by doing it electrically. His first big sav- ings came through being able to cut his own feed rather than send to a mill 5 miles away. This one economy. netted @ saving of $3.22. Savings on oll and gas for operating the milking machine were $2.64. Mr. Haunes’ electric bill for one month was “the astonishing amount of $1.10 as the cost of lighting all my buildings, pumping all of the water, heating the iron, and running the washing machine. In the future I plan to have an electric range, a hay hoist and work shop with machines operated by electricity.’ “A year ago 1 knew nothing of elec- tricity. To me it was something that the other feliow could use if he had a lot of money. But that was a year ago. Now I am using it and I haven't a lot of money. The electricity I use has to pay for itself, and it has more than done that so far, and I am con- vinced that in the future I can find many additional uses for this wonder- ful power other than those I have men- tioned.” Wilson Will Attend i with H.

BARNES, Secretary On Wednesday evening, May 2, the Electric League of Washington will have as its guest of honor, Maj. W. E. R. Covell, at a dinner to be held at the Columbia Country Club. The occasion of the affair is the forthcoming de- parture of Maj. Covell from his present assignment as Assistant Engineer Com- missioner of the District of Columbia. During the major’s term in Washington he has been continually in direct con- tact with the members of the electrical industry, and has through sincerity of effort won the close friendship and ad- miration of all of those who have seen his work, One of the important ac- complishments of the administration of Maj. Covell was the issuance last year of a new and revised “electrical code” for the District of Columbia. It is the first new and complete code in a period of almost 15 years, and stands out now as being one of the best in the country. Another loyal official of the District of Columbia who had much to do with the bringing out of the new code was Walter E. Kern, assistant electrical engineer of the District. Mr. Kern is a member of the Electric League of Wash- ington, and perhaps the best known individual in electrical circles in the City of Wesergror The Electric League steps out intest | with a large delegation of guests and | friends for its 1928 annual spring golf tournament on May 17 at the Indian | * Spring golf course. This highly im- portant mingling of electrical folks in e social gathering in the great outdoors is looked upon by many league mem- bers aS one of the most important of all Electric League endeavors. The prizes for the event are numerous and highly valuable. They outdo the many fine donations of previous events of the kind. Many representatives from large | electrical firms out of the city are ex- pected to participate. Joseph T. Kirch- ner is chairman of the outings com- mittee, and Jack Burns is vice chair- man. Although within the Electric League | there are many hard-working groups, | committees and subcommittees, it its | possible beyond question of doubt that none of them are more aggressive than the subcommittee to the business pro- motion committee, known as “appli- ances and devices.” This group has held two meetings within the last ten days, one of which was a joint meeting | commercial manager of the Potomac Electric Power Co. and president of the Potomac Electric Ap- pliance Co., as well as ardent Electric League worker, It is through the sug- gestion of this committee that the “Electric League Recipes,” by Miss Mary | Turner, are now appearing on this} electric page. The committee includes | C. P. Hill, chairman; J. C. Harding and | E. R. Bateman. A committee has ‘been appointed to | study a means of bringing about the | installation of more adequate electrical! equipment in the already wired homes of the city. The Electric League has found that many home owners want to use more electrical appliances, but /can not conveniently do so, because of the lack of an adequate number of convenience outlets. This special com- mittee will devise a means to make pos- sible the installation of such outlets G. P. Mangan will act as chairman with L. L. Hayes, senting nonunion contractors, and Theo. E. Mullican, J. C. Harding and Carroll P, Carpenter representing union contractors.

By. the spring our appetites are apt jaded and a heavy, hot luncheon does not appeal to us. Salads are both appetizing and nutritious. If the luncheon is to be entirely of salad. choose one that is both satisfying and good to look upon. The aid of the electric refrigerator, the makings of the Salad may be prepared in advance and combined just before serving. There are covered glass and enamel refrigera- tor dishes now on the market that are inexpensive and provide good storage for salad greens. Whatever salad you choose, either lettuce, romaine, watercress or endive, should be separated, well washed, shak- en free from all surplus moisture and placed in a jar having a tightly fitted cover, in your electric refrigerator un- til you are ready to use it. If salad greens are prepared this way, they will keep fresh and crisp for days. Salad dressing may also be made, stored in a covered jar or bottle, and will keep indefinitely in the electric refrigerator. Salads should always be crisp and cold when served. In planning a. salad, its place in the menu must be considered It may be the main course, salad course, or dessert course. There are three divisions to be con- sidered in a salad: Salad bed, the body of the salad, and Here are some suggestions: Variety of Salad Bed.—Lettuce, maine, watercress, cabbage, endive. Variety of Body of Salad.—Fish, meats, poultry, fruits, vegetables, gcla- tine, combinations of two or more. Variety of Dressings.—Cooked dress- ings, French dressing, mayonnaise and cream dressings. Accompantment—Rolls, toast, crack- | rs, Sandwiches, muffins, biscults, cheese sticks. Curled Celery. Cut the inner stalks into 3 or 4-inch pieces and with a sharp knife cut each piece down into thin strips to within an inch of the end. Drop into cold water and put in the electric refrigera- tor. As they become chilled, the thin strips will curl up. Special Dressing. 1 green pepper, 1 red pepper, 1 small onion, 1 or 2 stalks of celery, 1 sprig parsley. Chop vegetables very fine, piace a& covered jar and place fn the electric This will Keep for a long time if tightly covered. Just before serving the salad, add '% cup of this ro- the salad dressing | in | mixture to 14 cup French dressing and mix well. This caressing is especially good on -plain salad grecns, such as hearts of lettuce, romaine, cabbage and endive. Jellied Stuffed Eggs. Cut hard-cooked eggs in halves, al- lowing three eggs for six servings. Re- move the yolKs and season with a table- spoonful of cream cheese, qa teaspoon- ful of tomato catsup and a small amount of sait, pepper and paprika. Fill in the cavities evenly and garnish with a star of pimento in the center of each. Pour a thin layer of aspic flavored with lemon juice or vinegar into six molds. Allow to slightly harden. Piace the half of egg open face down in each mold. Fill the mold with aspic and place in the electric refrigerator to harden, VACUUM CLEANERS NOW MOP FLOORS | Electric aii Device Also for Blowing Up Footballs. electric | The vacuum cleancr is be- ical device could possibly be.

HLS MOVE UP BRISKLY: OTHER SECTIONS ‘MIXED Utilities and Some Specialties Resist Profit Taking; Car- riers Unsteady. TOBACCO SHARES RALLY Special to The Washington Post. New York, April 28.—Petroleum shares were treated to a rather enthusiastic bullish demonstration, led by Standard Oil of New York, in a moderately active week-end market, while trading in other groups was mixed, with net gains and losses about evenly divided. During the first hour strength was displayed in practically all divisions of the list and about 30 stocks rose to new high price levels for the year or more, but profit taking in the final hour whittled down much of the early gains and left a rather long list of stocks in the minus column at the close. In the latter group were found some recent leaders, such as General Motors, U. S. Steel, General Railway Signal, Greene Cana- nea, Wright Aero and some of the re- ’ cently active railroad issues. Buoyancy in the oils, utilities and fgome of the specialties more than off- set the sagging tendency under profit taking in other divisions of the market. Almost everything in the way of a listed oil stock was given a twirl on the upside, Standard Oil of New York reg- istered a new maximum quotation for the year at 3914, the closing price, an advance of 4%, points net in a turnover of 214,000 shares. Louisiana Oil snap- lag into new high price ground at 1914, 13g net in a heavy turnover. other gains in this group. included Maracaibo at a new peak price with a gain of 4%, net; Maryland Producing és Refining, Mexican Seaboard, At- lantic Refining, American Republic, Phillips, Pan-American Western B, Standard of California, Standard of New Jersey, California Petroleum, Tidewater and others. Demand for the strongly entrenched Oils continued to emanate principally from quarters in a position to gauge mest accurately the outlook for the in- . dustry, and the heaviest buying was found among the Standard shares.

WATSON (Staff Correspondent of The Post). AVRE DE GRACE, Mad., April 28.— The racing silks of E. M. Byers were carried to victory in the fea- ture race of the day at Havre de Grace, when Click, the 2-year-old colt by High Time, won the Aberdeen Stakes in 0:552-5. The race was a 4'4-furlong dash for juveniles worth $9,725 to the winner, and Click sent the A. P. Canale colt, High Score, down to defeat with Samuel Ross’ High Time filly, Too) High, third. The weather again was unpleasant “and a drab, rain-soaked setting greeted the throng that visited the Harford oval today. The track was a sea of mud and a chilling wind accompanied by a drizzle did not.add to the com- fort of the surprisingly large crowd. Even the dyed-in-the-wool campaign- ers flinched at the weather. The fa- “@epwrte sae * ee eee e * vorites again proved the best in the majority of the race and mud larks| revelled in the going. | In the Aberdeen, Pete Snow beat the others away from the gate, with Click second. Click, much the best, soon went to the front closely fol- lowed by Chicleight and High Score. Swinging into the stretch it was apparent that Click, who was still enjoying a good lead, was the class of the field, and he led to the wire, to win by a length and a half. - Jockey F. Weiner did not have to} “persevere with the Byers colt. High) Score, off a little tardy, ran a remark- able race and finished second with Too High third and Chicleight fourth. The race was between the leaders for the) entire distance. A 6-furlong dash with claiming con- -@itions, for 3-year-oids and upward, was weethe opening number of the holiday pro- ‘gram, with the F. C. Short filly, Fire Opal, being returned the winner in 1:16 2-5. Off to a ragged start, with Carefree, the favorite, left at he post, F'arceur get the pace for the first furlong. with Pieasant Smiles second and Parmachenee Belle third. Farceur convinued to lead into the stretch, with Sir Barley run- ning second and Pleasant Smiies third. Fire Opal. running in fourth position, came very fast near the end, to earn the decision by a head from Farceur, with Sir Barley finishing in third place, Mrs; N. G. Garlington’s Ruban Rouge proved much the best of the seven platers that met in the second race, over the mile and a quarter route, when the 9-year-old gelding galloped to an easy victory over Valentino by a half-length in 2:13 3-5. Vaientino went to the front at the break, with Turquoise second and Ed Pendleton third. Valentino continued to lead on the back strength, with E] Canoe second and Ruban Rouge begin- ning to move up from last place. Into the stretch Valentino .nd Ruban Rouge led the field, with the winner going away in the-tast sixteenth.

By FRANK H, Mo more bad weather and it will be necessary for Manager Stanley Harris to take his Na- tionals back to the Tampa training camp for reconditioning. The 1928 sea- yet the YOUNG, its seventh poét- chalked up yesterday. The Athletics were scheduled here, but a continua- tion of the same rain which prevented a contest on Friday gave the diamond athletes another idle day yesterday. Evidently the weather man is practic- ing up for the circus, which is due here tomorrow. District fans, who became enthusiastic over their team when it won five games in a row after dropping the season opener, are now wondering why Harris’ baseball machine has so suddenly gone in reverse. The answer is that the play- ers have lost the edge as to condition since they have returned home from the Sunny South. The Washington leader and Bob Reeves are out because of injuries, while Goslin’s arm has gone bad on him apparently for no. reason at all. Besides these known ailments, they and practically. every other member of the team are not in condition. The athletes have not had an oppor- tunity to hold the training edge which they had when they returned from their Southern trip. On days when games have been played, as a general rule, climatic conditions have been most un- favorable, while the fact that most of the Nats’ games played so far have been away from home has prevented them from getting more than the preliminary workout allowed visiting clubs before play starts. Thus,’ Manager Harris now finds himself with a flock of overly fat and stale athletes on his hands, and little relief may be looked for until the players get the opportunity of several strenuous morning drills which have been booked during the present home stay. Unfortunately for the Nats, games lost now count just as much as those which are dropped later in the season and it is up to tnem to “come out” of this slump quickly or some of the other teams will have such a Jump on them that they will be out of the pen- nant race before they actually got in it. Four real tests are promised them beginning this afternoon waen, if weather permits, the world’s champion Yankees will be here. In the two gaines played in New York last week, Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig anc. the other mem- bers of Huggins’ crew bad little trouble downing the Nationals. The chemps appear to have founc. themselves and the Harrismen must show quite a form reversal if they hope to gain an edge in the set, which ends Wednesday afternoon.

Arrangements have already been made for the Irish to meet the Cadets on the Saturday after Thanksgiving in New York in 1929. The contest, already one of the most attractive in the country, may grow into importance almost equal with that which the service clash had as- sumed, And this move by the Army does not betoken an .early resumption of : the Navy battles.

World’s records in the 16- pound shot put and the pole vault e broken and a third recognized record in the 100-yard dash was equaled by California athletes in the West Coast relays here today. Clearing the Vv F e r bar at the height of 14 feet 1% inches, Lee Barnes, Uni- versity of Southern California track star, established a new world’s record, breaking the _ recognized mark of 14 feet 1 inch set earlier in the year by Sabin Carr, of Yale. Barnes cleared the bar on third and last attempt, The second set in the world’s record was shot put by John Kuck, former Emporia, Kansas’ State Teachers College athlete, wearing the emblem of the Los Angeles Athletic Club. He tossed the iron ball 51 feet and 44 inch to break the record of 51 feet that has stood since 1909. This record was established in that year by Ralph Rose, of the Olympic Club, of San Fran- cisco. Kuck, who also holds the intereollegiate record in the javelin, won the shot put event last vear in the A, A. U. meet In Lincoln, Nebr. rhe performances today Barnes and Kuck have to be on by the officials of the A. A. U. Charies Borah, University Southern California flash, equaled the recognized world’s record of 9 3-5 seconds in the 100-yard dash. Borah led the crack field of run- hers to the tape, finishing first with a thrilling spurt in the last yards. The record was made by Charles Paddock of U.S. C. in 1921.

With Reigh Count, the favorite, serving \as chief color bearer for the West, the East presents a galaxy of 3- year-olds that are considered Reigh Count’s leading foes. Friendly guns are now pointed, but when the §650,- 000 race has been run at Churchill Downs on Saturday, May 19, both sec- tions will join in paying homage to a great horse. During the many years since the Ken- tucky Derby has been one of Americas premier sporting events this good-na- tured rivalry between East and West has been an outstanding feature and honors have been fairly well divided, with oa siight margin in favor of the Eastern turfmen. Kentucky, however, has been able to find ample consolation in many of these defeats through the fact that an Eastern-owned victor often has been bred in the Blue Grass. The intersectional struggle really be- 'gan with the running of the 1911 derby ‘in which Meridian, representing the |Bast in the colors of R. F. Carman, 'vanquished the West's great champion, Gov.

This Eastern victory was followed by similar conquests ty John Sanford’'s George Smith and Billings and Johnson’s Omar Khayyam.

Taking the last Jump in third place, the winner, with a succession of leaps in the last 100 yards, lunged across the finish line nearly a whole length ahead go direct to Pimlico, where he wilt accept mounts during the meeting., The Kenton Farm's Typhoon has ar- rived by van from Pimlico to fulfill his engagement in the Chesapeake On Monday.

J, Josiah leaves for New York today to ride free lance. th The steeplechase course at Pimlico was opened yesterday and 40 horses schooled over the jumps. Jockey Lance Cheyene is riding in great form and is again expected to lead the timber top- pers for the year. Jockey Willie Curran will leave for a visit to New York after Mon- day racing and will then report to his contract employer, Jimmy Mc- Gee, at Louisville, Starter James ; Milton suspended Jockeys M. Rose and G. Hudgins for disobedience at the post yesterday. Early Sunday morning Meister witl van ten horses belonging to the McLebn Stable to the Pimlico oval, G. R. Bryson denied today that he:is a partner to J, E. Griffith in the Griff- wood Farm, but he has a partnership agreement with Griffith in six mares of Reel Foot. Reel Foot, owned by W. Wallace Lanahan, and ridden by William Strectt, was closely followed by Walter O. Briggs’ Gold Trap. Aim- well, which was remounted by Louis McL. Merryman, folowing a spill at the twentieth jump after being far in the lead, was fourth. Thirteen horses started over a water- soaked 4-mile course, but only five fin- ished. The last to cross the line was Redmond C. Stewart’s Philosopher. Only eight of the thirteen were still going after the third and most difficult jump Five refused to take the third fence. Nimrod, William A. Phillips’ horse, with Count Rostworowski, of New York, aboard, turned a somersault at the eighteenth fence and pinned his rider beneath him. When the horse got up and dashed away the rider lay there. He was picked up and carried to the judges’ stand, where he was revived. It took Bon Master 11 minutes and 4 seconds to paddle around the course. When he finished he looked as if he had waded through a mud pond. BEULAH PARK ENTRIES.

BOXIN ‘Ss Ww i ceanesiaeneedtiieaeannl THE EW ASHING TITLES TREM. GTON POST: SUNDAY, ‘APRIL 20, . 1928. a ae a =| = E AS CHALLENGERS ARIS “ Hard Summer Visioned for Champs Even Heeney Not Con- sidered “Pushover’’ for Titleholder. eo rw MeLarin and Mandel! : Bout to Revitalize Lightweights. EW YORK, April 28 (A.P.).—-It looks like a tough summer for champions. With an unusually ‘3kely bunch of challengers in circula- ‘tion right now there's no telling how ‘many or how few of the monarchs of fstiana will survive the next few weeks. ** Not even in the heavyweight division “where the elimination tournament to find a logical contender has aroused few cheers can the challenger be listed as a pushover. Tom Heeney won’t be anything like a favorite in his July bat- tle with Champion Gene Tunney, but this courageous punishment absorber won’t be 1,000-to-1 shot either. ‘Down among the lightweights the coming of Jimmy McLarnin has caused a return to something like the interest that prevailed in the division in the heyday of Benny Leonard.’ This dis- arming but dangerous little Irishman Yfom Los Angeles, with his small boy face and his heavyweight punch, has gripped the imagination so hard that there’s a strong likelihood he will be favored over Champion Sammy Mandell when they do their stuff for Tex Rick- erd at the Polo Grounds May 17%. Knockouts over Louis Kid Kaplan and Sid Terris punctuated McLarnin’s up- Ward climb. Another young fellow who has ‘taken the public by storm is the ‘current challenger in the middle- weight division, Ace Hudkins, who lives up to his nev of “the Ne- braska Wildcat.” In a battle that looks like a “natu- ral,” the Ace is to get a chance at the crown held by Mickey Walker, the fight to be staged under Jim Mullen’s au- spices in Chicagoin Juneor July. Here are a couple of dig-in, slam-bang fight- exs who should compensate Chicago fans for the loss of the McLarnin- Mandell fray to Rickard and New York. Joe Dundee, the current welterweight ehampion, probably felt relieved when Frudkins outgrew the 147-pound divi- ston and decided to do his title hunting among the middleweights. But in his Stead Dundee has Sergt. Sammy Baker Knocking at his title door and three nip- and-tuck battles between the Ser- geant and the Ace have shown one is about as dafigerous as the other. The plan just now is for Dundee and Baker 44 mix June 21 at the Polo Grounds for Rickard. On the same day out in Chicago, Jim “Mullen has announced, the feather- weight title will be at stake, with Jole Sangor, pride of Milwaukee and the Middle West, getting his chance at Champion Tony Canzoneri.

By WESTBROOK PEGLER. EW YORK, April 28—All in all, N machinations of Jack Kearns Vs. Jack Dempsey has elicited very interest- | ing information regarding the uplift profession. It is true that the litigants did not tell all, as they had threatened | to, but they did tel! enough, directly or | indirectly, to establish the existence of still more interesting secrets. A hint, im some cases, is aS good as a kick in the flask and, although the boys did not so far forget themselves as to ad- duce legal proof of my contention that since 1915 it has been impogsible to per-~ petrate a heavyweight championship prize fight on the level, I think they bolstered it. Of course, Tex Rickard will be able to explain to the satisfaction of the New York prize fight commission that their incautious assurance which he gave Dempsey in a telegram before the first Tunney affair that Dempsey would be permitted to insure himself against favoritism by selecting his own judges or referee. Naturally, the prize fight commission will take this matter up in) | a very serious way. The Messrs, Farley and Muldoon can be counted on not to overlook such an opportunity to uphold the integrity of the game and the sanc- tity of the rules. I anticipate a statement by Mr. Farley also. an- nouncing that Mr. Muldoon is the most honest man in the world, and one by Mr. Muldoon stating that Mr, Farley is the runner-up. Mr. RicKard provahly will tell the prize-fight commissioners that in giv- ing Dempsey this assurance he was only indulging in some innocent sales talk calculated to lure Dempsey into a fight in New York. . The situation seems to be analogous to the cele- brated Frankie Frisch affair, which arose in the fall of 1924, when His Honor, Judge K. M. Landis barred one third-rate ball player, value $1,000, part cash, and on? clubhouse detec- tive, value nil, from organized base- ball for conspiring to bribe MHeinte Sand, of the Phillies, but exoncrated three other ball players, valued at $500,000. In that case, Mr Frisch, who was captain of the New York Giants, ex- plained that the boys cn the ball club had no real intention of raising a fund to bribe Sand, but were merely kidding around. By a coincidence. His Honor’s deci- sion was adjusted tn the property in- terests of the baseball firm, ruling that the third-rate bali player and the clubhouse detective were kidding in a serious vein, but tnat the.three val- uable athletes were kidding 1m a splrit of fun. I feel sure that the prize-fight com- missioners will believe Mr. Rickard’s explanation, and, at the risk of being considered overcrecalous, I will admit that I believe him myself. Drawing the colter line, Mr. . Rickard does not much care who holds yok heavyweight. faa lured an ss prom- ise to insure him again§ fayori- He knows enough about pear peight sia, aii POE A tiem ee the trial of the celebrated legal | prize fighters and their the gamblers managers and who bet on them to realize that they are capable of arranging their own insurance. Moreover, barring cer- itain slight deviations from the popular ,conception of sporting ethics, necessi- tated by the general character of the ‘uplift industry, he endeavors to run his heavyweight championship fights on the llevel. In this, he is guided. by a desire | _to perpetunate the business, if by noth- ing else, realizing that eventually the boys will do something too raw and hoping to postpone the inevitable. There is no reason for public indig- nation anyway. If the public at this late date still had a lingering belief that heavyweight championships were passed solely in the ring, it would only betray its gullibility by becoming indig- nant. Furthermore, there is nothing ‘in the official advertising of a heavy- iweight championship prize fight that promises the public an honest. contest. The promoters merely announce that ‘the two high-spirited, sport-loving | young men will engage in a boxing ex- | hibition for the heavyweight champion- ship of the world which is a vague 4thing. The customers are fond of as- suming that the heavyweight cham- pionship is a definite title and that the boxing exhibition will be a contest, decided strictly on issues of skill, en- durance and so forth, but the public, as will be shown by an examination of the facts, assumes too much. Mr. Humbert Fugazy or Mr. James Moon Mullen, the Chicago uplifter, might promote a_ boxing match for the heavyweight cham- pionship of the world between Dan O’Dowd and King Solomon, rep- resenting’ it as a world heavy weight championship affair, and nobody would disprove their rep- resentation. The trial also cast a light on the literary practices of athletic celebri- ties. Dempsey, on the witness stand, did not recognize certain newspaper articles purporting to have. been com- posed by him. Then there came 4&4 ghost writer who said he composed the pieces but added that after he had turned them in at the copy desk they were rewritten by his ghost. The posi- tion of ghost of writers’ ghost is a new one in the literary world and Mr. Dempsey’s position is unique, as all this made him an author, twice removed, ALLIED NINE TRAVELS.

With yesterday’s game called off, several of the Nationals and »Ath- letics dropped in Poli’s Theater to see the showing of “Simba,” a wild animal picture. Possibly this movie gave the Nats some idea which will help them beat the Tigers, who are due here shortly. Following the Yankee series, the Har- rismen will entertain all of the West- ern clubs. First will come the Browns, followed by the Tigers, White Sox and Indians. Roger Peckinpaugh, former National, is now managing the latter, and he has certainly started them on the warpath, With practically the same tcam. which was a failure under Jack McCallister, “The Rajah” has whipped together what at this writing gives. indications of being a pennant contender.

(A.P.).—With the firm belief that the United States has a “darn good chance” to win back (the Davis Cup from France, Francis T. Hunter, a member of the American team’ and, with William T. Tilden, holder of the national doubles. title, sailed .today for France.. He plans to condition himself on European courts prior to. joining the American team in London if it is suc- cessful in the American zone. He would not go abroad to spend so much time, he said, if he did not think there was a good chance to bring back the cup. Hunter spoke of the poor physical condition of Rene Lacoste, main hope of the French team, which he believed would favor America’s chances. After a hard match at Monte Carlo recently the French ace was advised by his doc- tor to remain away. from the courts | for a month. Hunter’s first tournament after his arrival in Europe will be the French championships, starting May 21 at Au- teuil, on the same courts on which the Davis cup challenge round will be played. ‘Havana, April 28 (AP.) .—Japan had little difficulty winning the first two singles matches from Cuba today in the opening of the Davis Cup elimina- tion tennis play. ’ Vicente Banet, there this season will | Shelby who believes that; _Teibo Toba, captain of the Japanese . ed to Onte D DRAKE RELAY HONORS TO | ILLINOIS 14,000 See I[llint Win 3 of 6 Races in An- nual Event. —_—_— formances, but lacking in the usual wholesale record breaking, IIli- nois, champions of the Western Con- ference, emerged with a lion's share of honors in the closing events of the Drake relay carnival.

YOUNG. OMEW HERE in the classics it is said that “advice is cheap,” and all that a ball player has to do to find this out is to get sick or® have trouble of some kind, and the fans lit- erally swamp him with suggestions, . At this writing, the recipient of thousands of dollars worth of advice—if advice is worth anything—is “Goose” Goslin, who is having trouble -making his throwing wing act in a normal fashion Several of the “Goose's” admirers have suggested that he learn to throw left-handed, each time adding: “You know Eddie Roush, of the Giants, was a riecht-handed thrower until he broke his arm and then learned to throw with his ieft arm.” As a matter of fact, writer, when. the were touring to Washington together from the Sunny Southland, that he has always been a southpaw. It is hard to tell just how this broken arm started, from a barber in Evansville, Ind. Roush told the “T had just changed over and was throwing left-handed in 1913,” said Eddie. “I was in the outfield with Evansville in the Central League. The. Giants sent Dick Kinsella, a | scout. to look at me. Bein’ as I was just changing fro:a my right hand to my teft hand, tf was catchin’ a ball left-handed, but was in a position to throw right-hand- ed. Not bein’ used to it, my feet were all twisted. “From what Kinsella has told me since, he went to Evansville to look at me and then went to a barber shop to get a shave. While he wa; in there, he asked the barber about me. ‘Oh,’ said the barber, ‘he broke his arm last win- ter and is just learning how to throw left-handed.’ So, when Dick got als shaye, he took the next train out of Evansville. “My arm wasn't broken,” sald Ed; ‘I was always left-handed.” This natural- ly brought out the question: ‘Well, then, how did you happen to be play- ing right-handed?” “Well,” said Roush, “when.I was a kid in Oakland City, Ind., playing sand- lot ball, there weren’t any left-handed | players’ gloves. I wanted to play ball and I wanted to wear a glove, so I played right-handed. It got so I could throw with either hand and still can, but I always batted left-handed.” In those uu,’s, Roush was playing sec- ond-base and throwins; right-handed for an amateur ‘team called the Walkovers. Tf his team needed a left-handed pitch- er, Eddie would switch his glove to the cther hand and take the mound. He got his first professional engagement in 1912. “One day,” said Roush, ‘a fellow calls me up and asks me to try out with the Evansville team, of the Kitty League. I played outfield for them and was kept when the team entered the Central League the next season, *Bein’ naturally left-handed and having found out that there was gloves for left-handed players, I de- cided to change. I looked pretty bad for a while because, as I say, I was used to catching the ball with my left foot forward, in position to throw right-handed. Catching it in that po- sition and then having to throw left- handed, I'd get all tangled up. But 1] don’t know where’ people got the idea that I’d broken my arm.” The White Sox bought Roush in 1913. He joined them in August and lasted only about a month when he was sent to Lincoln, Nebr. He jumped from there to the newly formed Fed- eral League and played in it until the Giants bought him in 1916. McGraw did not keep him long, however, trad- ing him, along with Mathewson and McKechnie to Cincinnati for Buck Herzog. It was with Cincinnati that eng developed into a great ball player, a fine fielder, a good batsman and a fast man on the The Giants got him back in the winter of 1926 by Gat ing lly for.

Brew’s activities on the athletic field are undoubtedly better known than his brilliant scholastic stand’ng during his four years at Gonzaga, but it is. the combination of his records on the ath- letic field and in the classroom which goes to make Brew an ideal student in every sense of the word. Tne graduation of Brew in June will culminate one of the most enviable high school standings of any student who has attended classes at Gonzaga during the history of the school. Tom has been an ronor man of his class during his four-year course at Gonzaga, and each year he has won the coveted class medal for general excel- lence in studies. He probably has been awarded more monthly testimonials, ‘ Lich require an average of 95 per cent in a subject, than any of his classmatce. Brew’'s ability in sports alone has brought him several offers of schol- arships from well-known unlversi- ties, but it is almost certain that the Gonzaga star will choose Hoiy Cross College at whie’: to finish his education.

Co Bistrtet te HALL, winner of the District League for the ‘second consecutive time, may lose the services of Jack Whalen, its star bowler, lw ho set the league on fire this year } by finishing with a high average of 118- 28, the highest mark ever attained in the circuit. Whalen has suffered a breakdown which has kept him idle the last few weeks. He is taking a complete rest. Members of the team hope he will be fully recovered to roll with the team in the city tournament at the King Pin alleys on May 4 Whalen first became ill with an at- tack of grippe previous to the national tournament in Baltimore, but after his team gained a four-day postponement he rolled, but retired to bed again. He has been up, but has been recover- ing slowly. Whalen’s case is similar to that of Eart MecPhilomy, one of hte greatest bowlers of the city who a couple of years ago was stricken when he was apparently at the height of his game. McPhilomy plans a return to the alleys soon after a two-year absence, | | The high spots of the District League 'this year were Convention Hall's 651 | game and 1,817 set, Al Work’s individ- |ual game of 176 and Wolstenholme's | high set of 421. King Pin bowlers who finished sec- 'ond carried off second high game with | 641, while Campbell was second in | average with 116. Logan figured fourth in the average race and won the honors iin average strikes 642 per game.

Only seven running events were held, due to the fact that the filed was entirely too muddy to permit holding the shot put, javelin, pole vault and other fleld events. Theodore Entwistle, of the Eastern Team, and Lowell Hetzell, of the visi- tors, were the stars of the meet, Hetzel being high-point scorer, with a total of 14, and Entwistle, who only entered two events, scoring 10 points. Hetzel placed second In the high hurdles, third in the 100-yard dash, first In the low hurdles and _ first in the 220-yard dash.

During the week the houses have been open thousands have passed ‘through and inspected each home, and Many have expressed the determination to go back to their homes and try in every way to adopt in them sugges- tions found in these model homes which will make their homes more beautifui and comfortable dwelling places. In- eluded in the six homes which have @erved as models is one apartment, which is located in the cooperatively- owned apartment building at 1661 Cres- cent place. This apartment is valued at $35,000 and was loaned by M. &. R B. Warren, home builders and realtors Bullt This apartment has been built on two floors. On one floor is the extra large living room, dining room, kitchen, butler’s pantry and lavatory. On the ‘other floor one finds four bedrooms and two baths, one of the baths finished in orchid tile and the other in green tile. Each apartment in this building is an individual home which has been bought and is owned by its occupants. This thought in home ownership js fast gaining popularity in many large cities because of the economy of maintenance and operation, The apartment shown in the “Home Beautiful” exhibit has been furnished by the following merchants: Furniture, draperies, rugs ‘and lamps by W. & J. Sloane; silverware by Berry & Co:: linen by the Linen Closet; piano and radio by Arthur Jordan Piano Co.; china, glassware and bric-a-brac by Martin’s China & Glass Shop; flowers by J. H. Small & Sons; pictures by S J. Venable. The apartment has been built in co- lonial style and furnishings have been selected in this design to carry out the period. The living room is luxurious with its beautiful Persian rugs and comfortable furniture, as are the otner rooms in the home. In each room a definite color scheme has been planned and carried out in pleasing manner Fach of the six homes forming the exhibit will be open today from 1 o'clock in the afternoon until 10 o'clock at night, and it will be the last — to see them, as.they will be smantlied Monday and the merchan- dize returned to the stores which loaned it How t@ Reach Homes.

California, which expresses its presi- dential preference on Tuesday, is the first State in which the candidacy of Gov. Alfred E. Smith faces a well-defined and competitive test. The strength which the New York executive has ac- quired so far has come to him almost without a struggle. The movement of delegates to his cause has either been voluntary or through compromise among elements that hesitated to commit them- selves to any other candidate. California is the first battleground on which polit- ical warfare has been conducted openly and bitterly. The three-cornered efight which the presence of Senators Thomas J. Walsh, of Montana, and James A. Reed, of Mis- souri, would indicate is, in fact, only theo- retical. The issue is between Walsh and Smith. Senator Reed’s entry in the race in California has been credited not so much to his own friends as to Walsh backers, who hoped thereby to split the wet vote of the State. Once Senator Reed had filed his declaration he -could not, under the California law, withdraw, and his declaration was no sooner made than Senator Walsh’s unexpected candi- dacy was launched under McAdoo aus- pices. : The important factors in the delegate struggle on Tuesday are two in number. There is the old division between the northern and southern counties of the State. The south, dominated by Los An- geles, has always been dry. The north, led by San Francisco, is militantly wet. The difference of opinion on prohibition between the two sections is no less marked and bitter than the municipal rivalry between the two centers of popu- lation. ‘There is, also, the struggle for organization control. Isador Dockweiler, national committeeman, and former Sen- ator James D. Phelan lead the Smith par- tisans. John B. Elliott heads the Mc- Adoo-Walsh wing of the party. Control of the State organization is closely in- volved in the primary fight. The allegiance of the entire delegation of 26 votes will be determined by the re- sult of the primary. The men selected will be pledged to the winning candidate until such a time as he releases them in writing. Victory for the McAdoo-Walsh- Elliott faction is important, because without the vote of California Mr. Mc- Adoo will lack the essential nucleus around which to renew his opposition to Gov. Smith. The addition of the State’s strength to the Smith column will mean much more than the 26 votes involved. It will mean the virtual collapse of the Walsh movement and in consequence the disintegration of the McAdoo faction that blocked Smith at Madison Square. A triumph in California will leave only Sen- ator Reed and some minor favorite sons between Smith and the nomination. The outcome of Tuesday’s balloting is ‘admittedly in doubt. It is conceded that nothing can prevent the McAdoo-Walsh dry forces from accumulating a big ma- jority in southern California. Gov. Smith is certain to obtain a heavy lead in the northern part of the State. Early in the campaign it was believed that the Mc- Adoo-Walsh faction had an advantage he- cause of the Reed candidacy. The prog- ress of the State canvass appears to have altered the situation somewhat. Gov. Smith fs now given a chance because of the hold which Dockweiler and Phelan have on the State organization. | - The Republican side of the picture pre- sents no difficulties. With Senator Hi- ram Johnson acquiescing, because of his own campaign this fall, in the candidacy of Herbert Hoover, the Secretary of Com- merce will capture the delegation of his home State without opposition. MR. MOORE AND THE “WORLD COURT.” John Bassett Moore has resigned as a judge of the “world court,” and will de- vote his time to the completion of a work on international law. Those Americans who still labor un- der the misapprehension that the so- called world court is “independent of the League of Nations” should take note that Mr. Moore addressed his resignation to Sir Eric Drummond, secretary general of the League of Nations, and that the as- sembly and council of the league will elect Mr. Moore’s successor. Mr. Moore will be a much more impor- tant figure in the domain of international law as an author than as a judge of the alleged world court. The presence of an American on that bench is an anomaly, and it is quite possible that Mr. Moore found it advisable to seize upon An op- portune moment to withdraw from a po- sition that was not in harmony with the policy of his own Government. It must always be held to his credit that he shared in the formulation of the reserva- tion that saved the United States from making the blunder of accepting the jur- isdiction of a foreign tribunal over purely domestic questions. Mr. Moore’s loyalty to the idea of ab- solute American independence has never been challenged. He now free to carry forward the great work of ascer- taining international law, a work which must be performed before any real world court can be created. The present coun- terfeit “world court,” established before the nations have agreed upon the laws that are to guide themselves, is a melan- choly example of the mistake that is made when the cart is put before the is is harmless for the time being, except that it is a stumbling block in the world’s progress toward the creation of a genu- ine world tribunal. When the nations have agreed upon world law they will then scrap the existing bogus court and create a real one. GIVE US BETTER WEATHER. Events conspired against Charles L. Mitchell, Washington district weather the American Meteorological Society that the Weather Bureau hoped soon to pre- dict the weather for a week in advance. The records of the tests already con- ducted undoubtedly show, as Mr. Mitchell stated, that the prognostication is cor- rect for seven out of ten days, but this is no time to present such information to the public. Washington, in common with many other communities, has been waiting overlong for the appearance of spring. Householders, fencing sparingly with the last few shovels full of coal, have pinned their faith each morning in the recur- ring prediction of “rising temperature,” only. to have their hopes dashed each aft- ernoon, What made. matters even worse was when winter paid a return engagement with greater severity than on any pre- vious occasion. It will, therefore, be im- possible to convince the man who on Sat- urday looked through the dreary mist while another ton of coal was being shov- eled into the cellar that weather forecast- ing ever will be a dependence and reli- ance. The universal demand is for bet- ter weather today, and for at least a lit- tle touch of spring before summer ar- rives. Until the officials of the Weather Bureau can cure the day-to-day situation, talk of forecasts by the week is likely to meet with loud and derisive laughter. JOLLYING THE TAXPAYER. The President’s implied approval of the Senate tax reduction bill was given prob- ably with the conviction that it would be impossible to keep such a measure en- tirely free of political considerations, and that the major interest to be safeguarded is the total cut in revenue which the bill provides. It has been made clear that Mr. Coolidge does not now oppose the re- moval of the tax upon automobiles. It is patent why this provision and the one like it, providing for the increase of the amusement tax exemption from 75 cents to $3, were included. Some effort. had to“be made to provide the universal appeal so necessary to an election year. Political judgment was that it would never do to reduce taxes in such a fashion that the “man in the street” could not feel the cut directly through the medium horse. Having no law to apply, the court | nbs | -cow regime told the world with charac- teristic frankness what their policy must | be, in view of what they conceived to be | — (e They | patriotic stated that Russia was not sufficiently “Across their frontiers are. other peoples strong to combat the Western nations, | and was, therefore, forced to adopt a dou- | | ble-dealing policy.

The income tax scale | 4 ray om had already been reduced to a minimum. The only taxes remaining that were felt by the majority of citizens were the two which the Senate would in effect wipe out. The political motive that actuated the Republican majority with apparent when one considers the action of the Senate finance committee and the minority program which the Senate Democrats will offer. The only two phases of the bill in which the committee was at all unanimous were the repeal of the automobile tax and the reduction of amusement taxes. The Democrats go further in their demand for a tax cut of $333,000,000 in seeking to wipe out what few stamp taxes remain in the law. The guiding motive is the same, however, for the intent is to plant the consciousness of tax reduction in the minds of as many voters as possible. Congressional opin- ion appears to be that it is better to abandon a sound tax than risk the chance of not being able to get tax reduction -across to the clectorate. COMMUNISM STILL AT WORK. The capture of Bela Kun at Vienna re- veals the fact that the Moscow Com- munists are persisting in the attempt to set up revolutions in various countries, while simultaneously proposing world dis- armament and giving official assurances that they have abandoned secret propa- | Sela Kun | is one of the most dangerous and mur- | ganda in capitalist countries. derous communists in the world. He has recently held the post of chief of propa- ganda at Moscow. His activities have been directed largely against Hungary and Austria. Hungary is anxious to ex- tradite him, and doubtless the Russian Soviet will endeavor to obtain his release, but it is probable that he will be sent to prison in Austria, to join a batch of revo- | lutionists who few months ago. Last December the chiefs of the Mos- were captured a the attitude of capitalist nations. and would use every endeavor to lull the Western nations into the belief that noth- ing was to be feared from Russia; on the other, they would incessantly train their own forces and prepare for what they re- garded as inevitable—a combined attack upon Russia. They pictured the Western powers as secretly allied against Russia and waiting for an opportunity to destroy her. At the time when soviet agents were negotiating for loans and advantageous contracts at Berlin, other soviet agents pounced upon 60 or more German engi- neers engaged in developing the heavy industries of Russia. These engineers were charged with a conspiracy to sabo- tage operations in the iron mines and steel works, so that Russia would be un- able to reestablish the heavy industries. It is expected that some of these engi- neers will be executed. Thus the sovict _seeks to convince the Russian people that that Mr. Mitchell spoke on the very day | the cause of the breakdown of industry Is not the communist system or the inef- ficiency of the Russians, but foreign in- terference, inspired by the Western gov- ernments that are plotting to disable Russia. In the meantime secret revolutionary propaganda is carried on throughout Eastern Europe, India, Egypt, Arabia and. China, all for the purpose of stirring up a world revolution, and particularly tor the purpose of breaking down the British | Empire. This “boring from within” is powerfully aided by Britishers at home who fatuously cling to the notion that the Russians are at heart honest democrats, striving merely to ameliorate the condi- tions of laborers throughout the world. The British government is hampered at every turn in dealing with the soviet be- cause of the obstacles interposed by Brit- ish communist sympathizers. The soviet is faced with strong opposi- tion from the peasants, who again refuse to raise a surplus of grain, thus bringing the country toward the prospect of a se- vere shortage, if not a famine, next win- ter. Stalin is beginning to take stronger measures against the peasants, following Trotzsky’s methods, which he had de- nounced. On the other hand, an impor- tant section of the Russian people sin- cerely adhere to communism and are greatly in fear of the capitalist nations, apprehending that those nations will bring about war in order to save them- selves from communism. These Russians are convinced that they are heroic de- sur- So respect to | these two classes of taxation becomes | United States and Italy.

Mr. Copeland attributed this excessive mortality largely to the poor ventuating system of the chamber. He likened the room to a thermos bottle. The legislative bill was under discus- tentatively approved which provides for the reconditioning of the Senate cham- ber at a cost of $500,000. In the meantime efforts .have made without avail to secure the installa- tion of a more modern system of ventila- tion in the hall of the House. A few days ago Representative MacGregor called attention to the desirability of pro- viding physical examination of all mem- bers periodically. He asked that an ap- propriation of $5,000 be made for the purpose. Some of those who listened were inclined to treat the subject with levity, and the amendment was ruled out on a point of order. But before that oc- curred Mr. MacGregor directed attention to the fact that since the Fifty-third Con- gress 82 senators and 203 representa- tives have died in office, and that since the Sixtieth Congress the contingent fund of the House has been called upon to pay $169,905 for funeral expenses for members.

Business Bureau has estimated een | that the inexperienced and small investor in this city loses over a million dollars a year through the purchase of question- able securities. This by no means rep- resents the total obtained on such issues, for, using Washington as a base, the shady stock salesman uses the mail, tele- phone and telegraph to victimize resi- dents of the States in which he is not al- lowed to set up his place of business. The bill drawn by Senator Capper will meet with some opposition. It already has developed that local bankers, real es- tate men and investment bankers feel that there are sections of the bill which invade the field of their legitimate opera- tions. The vital interest of all should be to perfect a measure that will protect those who are unable to protect them- _ selves against shady promotions. An ef- fort should certainly be made to agree - to the families of deceased | upon principles broad enough to safe- | guard the financial welfare of the entire , community. THE DAYLIGHT SAVING NUISANCE, Daylight saving time again is in effect. At 2 a.m. on the last Sunday of April the residents of Massachusetts and Rhode Island, as well as those of New York City, Chicago and many other cities through- out the United States, turn their clocks ahead one hour. On the last Sunday of September clocks will be pushed back one hour, marking the passing of summer. Daylight saving was introduced during ai the war on a Nation-wide basis as a There can be no good reason for neg- | the emer- | means of conserving fuel. Since then the controversy regarding it has raged every summer. Farmers, as a general | thing, dislike daylight saving, for it nee: ue ' means that they must get to their fields | tilating systems, conditions should be | . before day has broken. In urban com- ' munities, however, daylight saving is popular, since it gives an extra hour of daylight in the evening that can be de- voted to sport and recreation, Washington does not have daylight . saving time, but it is nevertheless af- fected. The change makes necessary a rearrangement of some train schedules, Since many broadcasting programs origi- — nate in New York, the broadcasting time- table must be altered. Bond and broker- age houses, working in harmony with the New York Stock Exchange, must open an hour earlier in the morning. Banks, do- ing business with New York and Chicago, have a new physical factor to take into consideration. If it were possible to put daylight sav- ing time on a Nation-wide basis, as it was during the war, the public might be bet- ter off. As a patchwork proposition, howe ever, daylight saving time is an abomina- tion. American cities are so dependent upou One another, and the American citi- zen is such a great traveler, that it is confusing to have standard time in effect in one community and daylight saving time in the next. As there is no possibility of placing daylight saving on a Nation-wide basis, it would be well if it were abandoned. A movement is afoot in the University of Wisconsin to confer upon Col. Charles — A. Lindbergh an honorary degree. It will be remembered that the Lone Eagle once attended the University of Wisconsin — and was not graduated. College students throughout the country, nodding over text books or waiting apprehensively for the result of yesterday’s examination, will realize what an honor this promises. to be. What boy has not dreamed of the day when his material accomplishment q would force his alma mater to recognize his ability with a honorary doctorate? .

To the Editor of The Posit—Sir: The @enversations that have been taking ) place between Mr. Kellogg and M. ' Briand in an effort to aid the cause of _ peace, which is of such supreme im- portance not only for us but for the whole world, lead me to make the fol- fowing observations: As citizens of the United States we have four great interests that should fmove us to give every aid we can toward the preservation of peace in Europe. 1, Perhaps the foremost of these is @ur export trade. Fully one-half of this is with European countries. 2. The fact that if the debts of Euro- pean countries to our Government, amounting to some $10,000,000,000, are ever to be paid, the most important factor in bringing this to pass is the preservation of peace. 3. That in addition to the debts owed us because of advances during the war our people have loaned since that time vast sums of money to help the finan- cial and economic recovery of Europe, and whether it be for war debts or commercial loans, this indebtedness is very widely distributed among our peo- pie. All of them are interested in the first, and vast numbers in the second. 4. The fact that we incurred an in- debtedness of some $26,000,000,000 for War expenses, besides the billions col- lected as taxes during the war itself, and convoyed 2,000,000 soldiers to Eu- Tope must not be forgotten. As all the European powers are mem- bers of the League of Nations and sub- ject to the provisions of the covencnt thereof, it is apparent that whatever ar- rangements we do make must not con- travene the terms of the covenant, which in article 20 thereof set forth that the members of the league “sol- emnly undertake that they will not hereafter enter into any negotiations in- consistent with the terms thereof.” And in article 11 it is provided “that any war or threat of war * * * is a matter of concern to the whole league, and at such a time the secretary gen- eral shall on the request of any member of the league forthwith summon a meeting of the council.” In article 16 it is provided that if a member of the league resorts to war in disregard of the covenants contained in articles 12, 13 and 15, which provide for arbitration or judicia) settlement or inquiry by the council, such member shall be deemed to have committed an act of war against all the other mem- bers of the league. who are then to sever all trade, financial relations or intercourse between their nationals and covenant-breaking state. The coun- cil is also to recommend what military measures shall be taken by the other members of the league. Having fought in the World War and seen its widespread devastations and slaughter and realizing that any future great war wiil be more deadly and dev- astating than the last, I realize perhaps more fully than those who took no part therein the immense importance of pre- venting a war from breaking out (I am a pacifist from experience), and any uncertainty as to the attitude that our country might take would certainly greatly weaken the efforts of the other powers to keep the peace; just as the uncertainty in regard to England’s at- titude before the outbreak of the Great War made that war more possible— for had Germany Known that England would join with Russia and with France it is certainly possible to conceive that the war might not have taken place ait all. The treaty that Mr. Kellogg has sub- mitted to the six great powers provides that “they condemn recourse to war for the solution of international con- troversies and renounce it as an instru- ment of national policy in their rela- tions with one another.” It further provides that the ‘“‘solution of all disputes or conflicts of whatever nature * * * which may arise among them shall never be sought except by pacific means.” But should not the pa- cific means to be employed be definitely set forth? Senator Borah, in the very interest- ing interview he gave to Mr. Kirby Page some time since, said that “another im- portans result of such a@ treaty would be to enlist the support of the United States in cooperative action against any nation which is guilty of a flagrant vio- lation of this outlawry agreement.” He went on further to say, “Of course in such a crisis we would consult with the other signatories and take their judgment into account.” Why, then, could we not state defi- nitely that just as we were an associated power in the war, we would become an associated power with the council of the league and would appoint a repre- sentative to meet with the council whenever a dispute had become so acute that war was threatened, so that fa nation tinreatening to go to war might know that we were acting at sucn a time in conjunction with the other nations in an effort to keep the peace, and so that in case a war shculd reak out we would have a hand in the decision to be made as to the nation that had violated the treaty. If we had a represeniative meeting with the council at once, who would, of course, be in constant communication witha the Government sat Washington, the necessary economic pressure couid bs exerted if all were in agreement, and I can not but think that the prospect of an econoinic boycott Would calm a war fever. We could linnt our association with the league solely to a situation where there was danger of war, it being fully understood thal we were in no way obligated to go to war in case a war had broken out, Congress being the only power in our Government which can authorize such a aeclaration. Quick decisisns at such a crisis are of the greatest moment. anc resistance against a nation threateniug to violate the treaty should be %o wowerful and so certain and the con'equences of break- ing the peace so likely to be disastrous that any nation, no matter how power- ful, would not dare te let loose the dogs of war. FREDERICK H. ALLEN. New York, April 26. Former Captain in Medical - Corps, U. S. A., Pleads for Support and Passage of Legislation to Put on the Retired List Disabled Army Officers of the World Con- flict—Cites His Own Case as Justifying Government Criticizes Post Edi-| torials and Cartoons, To the Editor of The Post—Sir: | In this morning’s Post on the editorial page you cerry a cartoon representing the D. A. R. as a stately, temple-like building over which floats a large and beautiful American flag. Before the building is a small figure of a carica- ture of a woman labeled “D. A. R. Pacti- fist,” who is gesticulating wildly and screaming, “How Dare You Advocate National Defense When I Am Against It?” In view of the fact that at the Thirty- seventh Continental Congress of the D. A. R., which is closing today, I am th: only person who has presented any resolutions which have been given enough attention to be debated and which are the only “nes which have been voted down, vhe protesting D. A. R. pacifist must be intended to refer to me; ktut the cartoon is so false to both the spirit and the letter of my resolutions that’ I can not let it pass without comment, Even a cursory pe- rusal of the text ui my resolutions will convince the most casual reacer that they are not concerned with pacifism or any other “ism” whatsoever. The first article .s a plea on the part of the chapters for an opportunity to study all important questions before being called upon to send delegates to ths congress to »>te upon them. Surely this has nothing to do with national The second article is a request on the | part of the chapters that there be an |opportunity for them lown speakers, or, to put it in another | way, @ request that the organization | free itself of the stigma of maintain- ling a “black list.” to choose their | consicered » be of the gravest impor- tance and request that the chapters be advised in detail as to the policy of the national society with regard to tsat matter. During the past few weeks the press of the country has been flooded w’‘th accusations alleging that that society is curbing free speech and free discus- sion among its own chapters; that !t is maintaining a “black list,” and that its national officers are committing the society to policies which do not repre- sen. the sentiment of the several chap- ters and their members. These resolu- tions were conceived in a spirit of loy- alty to the organization and in the de- sire that the organization would offi- clally put itself on record as favoring free discussion and ridding itself of the use of a “blac: list.” May I say that it is only because false and insincere cartoons and editorials grossly misrepresentirg the spirit and the statements of those who havc pro- test- | have been given such wide pub- licity that the national society of the D. A. R. in congress assembied was yesterday betrayed into putting itself officially on record as willing to throt- tle free speech among its own members. Such misrepresentation is no kindness either to the majority members of the society or to the minority. ELEANOR S. P. ST. OMER ROY. April 21, 1928.

Will Be the Light of the Nations and Envy of the World. To the Editor of The Post: Sir—The most outstanding man in the Repub- lican party today among those who are candidates for the Presidency is Herbert Hoover, Secretary of Commerce. His extraordinary management of the Near East Relief funds for the care of the widows and orphans of the World War, and the similar service he rendered Jast year in rescuing and caring for the suf- fering victims of the Mississippi flood area, together with the magnificent work he has done as Secretary of Com- merce, have brought him, not only into the eye of his countrymen, but of the whole world and made him a marked man. God calls men now, as in the past, into fields of high endeavor, and equips them for a great task. Secretary Hoover is endowed with splendid mental at- tainments, great executive ability, witn perfect self-poise, gentle in_ spirit, blameless in life and altogether lovable in his character—the finest type ol American manhood—and fitted in every way to adorn the office of President of our great Republic. His life from his youth up seems to stamp his as &@ man of destiny. Gen. Grant said, “The Democratic party may be expected always to do the wrong thing at the right time.” If th¢ Democratic nattional convention that meets in June should be so utterly blinc« and lacking in common sense as t0 nominate Goy. Al Smith as its candi- date for our next President, and th« Republican national convention should be so wise, and I believe it will, as to nominate Secretary Hoover as its cand. date for President—the one @ frad- ical wet and the other a conservativ« dry—I confidently predict that Herbert Hoover will be elected by an overwhelm- ing majority. The “Solid South’””’ wi) be broken, likely never again to be mended; and during the eight years, 01 two terms of President Hoover’s admin- istration which will surely follow, thc cause of national prohibition will be established, and this glorious and be- loved Republic of America of ours Wil! be the light of the nations and the env! the world. sss H.

TIRRING scenes on Capitol Hill, rumors S thrill- ing air news of the moment are the general topics of conversation just now, Life at the White House has been very quiet lately, with only an occasional guest. Tho President and Mrs. Coolidge are enjoying a peaceful time, undisturbed by formal entertaining, with the record of a successful social season, and no function of a state nature ahead of them in the immediate future. No announcement has been made as yet of the usual garden party at the White House for the veterans in local service hospitals, which is a feature of the spring in Washing- ton. These plans are, of course, contingent upon the condition of Mrs. Lemira Goodhue, Mrs. Coolidge’s mother, who is still critically ill, If this garden party is not held on that account this year, the service men will under- stand perfectly, as Mrs. Coolidge has always been a constant visitor to the hospitals and great sympathy has been expressed for her in her anxiety by the veterans, Where the summer White House will be is still problematical and every one is won- dering which one of the beautiful estates which have been offered to the President and Mrs. Coolidge will be chosen by them, * e - @ of preelection battles, and the D INNERS are the chief form of enter- tainment at this season, and judging from the number of them lately it seems as though Washington hostesses are trying to give as many as possible before the summer exodus begins, The Vice President and Mrs. Charles G. Dawes are s0 much in demand for this form of entertainment that they seldom have a chance to dine at home. On Monday they were the guests.of honor at a large dinner, when their host was the Ambassador of Peru, Dr. Hernan Velarde. The following. night they were entertained at dinner by Senator and Mrs. Frederick M. Sackett, and on Thurs- day night by the Ambassador of Japan and Mme. Matsudaira.

The British Ambassador and Lady Isabella lloward are also frequent guests of honor at dinner and their time will be much taken up until Lady Isabella sails for England May 12. The Ambassador and Lady Isabella Howard were the guests for whom the Eng- lish Speaking Union entertained at dinner Monday night at the Willard Hotel, They were the honor guests at dinner Wednesday of the Ambassador of Germany and Frau von Prittwitz und Gaffron, and on Thursday of the Minister of Egypt and Mme, Samy Pasha, N Wednesday afternoon the Minister of () Persia, Mirza Davoud Khan Meftah, entertained at a large reception in honor of the celebration of the coronation of His Im- perfal Majesty, Reza Shah Pahlavi. lvery embassy and Jegation was represented with almost all the officials, and many residents of Washington also attending. The legation was beautifully decorated, and reminded one of a Persian garden. Blooming plants were on each step of the staircase, and spring flowers were used in profusion everywhere. The Minister of Persia is very fond of enter- taining and it will be remembered that he was host at a beautiful dinner and musicale on March 21, the occasion of the Persian New Year, when his honor guests were the Secretary of State and Mrs, Frank B. Kellogg. cy % * m HE news of an engagement always causes Ec a flutter of excitement in society, and the latest of great interest to Washington is that of Miss Caroline Thom to Maj. Robert LeGrow.

CLEAR indication of the return of romanticism in the modern sartorial realms is the swift re- _. versal of the hitherto severe neckline .to those which embody the element of “ coquetry, and the adornments which are achieved by the use of fine em- * broidered fabrics and lace. In the history of clothes there has always been a constant evolution of expression from the severe to the femi- nine and from the feminine to the severe. Dame Fashion was always fickle and no sooner got her wish in one re- spect than she longed for and usually obtained something new. The daugh- ters of the age-old rulers of fashion have imbued in them this desire for wearing what they please and just be- | cause this is the age of women and equality is no reason, think, that they should wear clothes with a too masculine trend. Just to show they can, however, they | bodily take the tailored coats and waistcoats of the masculine population w2Of the world for their strictly tailored e.-8irments, but fling aside any sugges- ‘+ nae lection and * tion of these in their spring-like dresses and costumes for any time of the day in which they care to wear them. If, as the prophets declare, women in an era or two are to don trousers as their regular attire, they are taking a filing with their skirts at time. No woman simply simple skirt, that have fashionable at. the political is content with diversity.

On even the dark silk or black strect | dresses for the warm days of spring and summer one sees saucy little flounces of lace and fluttering capes to match, dyed, of course, the exact color of the gown. When these flounces and capes are not of lace they are of the material of the gowns, of georgette or | aw orepe de chine, and give the vivacious | “-ealr 80 necessary for chic is most remembered that the | in 1928.

It is quite to be expected ‘that the designers would cut and slash the sleeves to allow for undersleeves and cuffs to match this fascinating neckwear and this probably accounts for the ornateness of many of the new sleeves even on the simpler frocks. Origin of Furbelows. The scorn of many a _ well-dressed waman for furbelows would be dispelled perhaps if she knew that this term was applied in the early history of this country to the quilled pleatings or nar- row fiounces pinked, hemmed, lace- edged or disposed in curving lines with tiny hand-made stitches and manipu- lation, which makes the gown pre- served from taat date such marvels of workmanship and art. In this day the robes de style and period gowns evolved by the artistes in the sartorial world are apt to have a restrained use of these very furbelows. , One thing is certain, the world de- signers of women’s clothes have won the first engagement of the battle against the modern’s women trend to dress all alike, looking very much some- times as though they were paper dolls all in a row, cut out with one or two snips of a pair of scissors, First they have done away with standardization of colors, and awakened in the women of the world of fashion, a desire to create, or have created for her “off shades” and combinations of shades which are entirely new and individual, and therefore, very smart. While it is not possible for tie aver- age woman to follow the lead of the woman of wealth and have her fabrics “dyed” or blended to her color, it is ossible to get the special color effect y combinations of materials ox the use of transparent and semitransparent materials over another of different color. For instance, the woman who wishes a. particular shade of purplish blue, shops and shops and matches and matches and compares until she gets the exact shade of blue and the shade of purple to wear under it, which will give her the desired red effect. Not always does she wear the blue on top either, for with a reversal of this order, she may obtain the best purple-blue effect. She has to study and study un- tid she gets it. 7 Shadow Dyeing a Fad.

CAPITAL ART \ \ 4 \ I ! ; _ the \ ~ TO BE SHOWN AT CORCORAN By ADA RAINEY. MPORTANT announcement comes I from the Corcoran Gallery of Art of the opening of the gallery to the local artists for the exhibition of their works. This is an unusually generous offer, as no other gallery is doing as much for the local men and women who are producing art, in all mediums. Close on the announcement of this generosity comes the welcome news of the provision of funds for the main- tenance of the new Clark wing by the widow and daughters of the late Sena- tor Clark. This is another gift which is added to the already munificent con- tributions of the Clark family to the Corcoran Gallery. The announcement from the trustees of the Corcoran Gallery is as follows: “The trustees of the Corcoran Gallery of Art have offered to local artists the use of a perfectly lighted exhibition room for a term which they will later decide. The exhibition will be under the supervision and control of a repre- sentative jury of local artists whose mames appear below. The trustees have authorized this jury to pass upon all works submitted, to exercise its discre- tion as to placing a limit upon the number of works shown, and to elimi- nate. any works which can not be properly exhibited for lack of space. A worthy standard is desired, and, ap- preciating the extraordinary oppor- tunity which the gallery is providing, the artists of Washington undoubtedly will cooperate in making this exhibition a creditable one both to themselves and to the gallery. “The exhibition is open to all active members of the Society of Washington Artists, the Washington Water Color Club and the Landscape Club. It is also open to all other artists residing in the District of Columbia or its im- mediate vicinity. “Paintings in any medium, sculpture and black and white may be submit- ted. Previous public exhibition of any work -will not render it ineligible. No commission will be charged on Sales. When any work is sold, or withdrawn by the artist, the jury will replace it by selection in such manner as it may de- cide. “All contributions must be in suitable condition for exhibition and must be delivered unpacked and without charge on May 9-10 between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p. m. at the New York ave- nue entrance to the gallery. Notice will be given by mail to artists whose work can not be included in the ex- hibition, and they must send for such work at the time designated. artists who fail to be represented the first group will later have an op- portunity to submit work for the en- suing exhibitions. A card, clearly written, must be at- tached to the back of each work sub- mitted, giving the artist’s name, ar- tist’s address, title of work and price. The gallery assumes no responsibill- ty for loss or damage of any kind, nor any expense in connection with the ex- hibition, other than hanging the pic- tures and placing the sculpture. A cordial invivation is extended to all artists of Washington to submit to the jury examples of their best work to this exhibition, which will be the first of its kind in this city. Inquiries may be addressed to the secretary of the jury, care of Leslie Jackson, the Concord, New Hampshire and Oregon avenues. The jury consists of Richard S. Merryman, chairman; 8. Burtis Baker, Hattie Burdette, Leslie Jackson, secretary; Garnet W. Jex, Ma- thilde M. Leisenring and Car) C. Mose. “This exhibition will open May 12, continuing through the summer to and including September 30. Due notice of its termination will be mailed each ex- hibitor. It is hoped that after the first group of pictures, continually replaced exhibitions will be shown for the en- suing year, commencing immediately after the closing of the biennial ex- _ of the Corcoran Gallery of r Sy ™ col >) xs Bronzes at Dunthorne. The bronzes at the Dunthorne Gal- lery by Alfeo Faggi are a real contribu- tion to art. They have in them a quality that is rarely found, an originality of form, a simplicity of ex- pression and a distinction of style, unique and sincere. There are but nine pieces, most of them loaned by the owners. The head of Nogouchi is owned by the Art Institute, of Chicago. It is one of the most arresting, if not the most vital, in the group. The “Eve” and the “Saint Francis” vie with each other for this distinction. The “Saint Francis” breathes the apirit of the Middle Ages with its spiritual ardor and rapt contemplation. This figure is small as are most of the others; few are life size, yet the im- pression made on the sensibilities of beholder is impressive. “The other and Child,” owned by Mrs. in A. Ryerson, of Chicago, is an important work, so true and sincere is its expression. Faggi bases his work on that of the primitives, but he is not imitative; he merely uses their thought forms to build up his own conception of faces and forms. The drawings of this artist are even more interesting than his sculpture. He has @ quality in them that has the tang of the great masters of the Renais- sance. There is a mastery of line and form that is significant. Most of them are made in sepia and, therefore, have a warmth of color that is excellent. In the upper rooms there is another exhibition that is also of much artistic merit. It is a collection of color prints by European artists assembled by George Brochner, of London, and repre- senting over 25 artists from Great Brit- ain, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Aus- tria, Czechoslovakia and Poland. Even Japan and Australia are represented. Tho collection is said to be the best of its kind that has been gathered. It is varied in its subject and methods of presentation. There are rints in the most modern cubistic manner and others in the old-fashioned representative manner that will suit those who take their art convention- ally. Among the most striking are the bird designs by Bresslern Roth, of Aus- tria. Roth has a strong sense of color, which he employs effectively in these wood-block prints. “Gray Parrots” is tremendously appealing with its fasci- nating design. ‘“‘Red Parrots” is a flame of color. ‘‘Iris” is also effective in color, - which adds brilliance to the design for > Py cay 4 . : ag the others. hy which this artist is noted. Kashmir, also an Austrian, has been inspired by the gigantic structures in New York, which he etches with much power. : “Highland Girl” and “A Small Vil- lage.” by two Polish artists, are out- standing, while the work of the Jap- anese, Urushibara, shows Chinese in- Auence most acceptably in the bril- liant “Peonies.” The other flower prints are effective and expressive. . The work of the British artists, of whom naturally there is a greater num- ber than of any other nation, is varied. ‘They show mastery of their technique, prints are charming and effective, but on the whole there is not ihe imag- inative power that is shown in some of We must, however, except lovely bird and flower prints by lo players, by Rene artist, must not be srlooked jn tis feast of gQad Those | in | * aN, Se rave B . il SS rrnees ® iy Pig (oa : 5 hie ov ia ar m we, es et ae ae ae Te We ee) Oe Bee a4 it me. 2 a a . a bie ag t bia i ae ih , are . ,; ee ey 3 ath _ Ceo = i + Pee Ee Re Meee. we he Pe 2 had ¢ 5 Wey Sane Wenn ae ys Ce eT as 5 ied | Pra 4 * A yl aes } : a: THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, ‘APRIL 29, 1928.

Bush-Brown, spent a few days in the city last week and brought with her some of hor lovely silk murals and gave an exhibition of these in the studio of Ethel Kane, the former studio of the sculptor, her father. Miss Bush- Brown has_ progressed tremendously in her art since she last exhibited here, and she has progressed in the _ direction of construction, strength and power. Her work has al- ways been distinguished by imagination and a fine sense of color, and many of the murals done some time ago, hang- ing with the newer pieces, make a de- lightful contrast in beauty of forn: and variety, showing the manifold possi- bilities of this sort of work. All that one needs to enjoy murals is a sensib:iity to color form, which every one has in some de- gree. They were hung in an ideal en- these background for the colors of the mu- rals. The artist made an extensive trip to Syria a year or sv ago, and the themes of many of her recent ‘works were captured there. “Fountain in Syria,” “Tents,” “Moonlight in Syria’ and “Syrian Pumgranit Tree” are some of the more recent and modern designs which have in them decided charm and harmony. These themes have the charm of novelty in motive and harmo- ny in treatment which would them an effective keynote for decoration of a modern room. “New York” is stimulating, as is the feeling of that gigantic metropolis, and the treatment is appropriately done in reds and harmonizing browns. collection will be taken on tour to few cities, including Memphis and Phil- adelphia, where it will be shown at the Arts and Crafts Club. 2 ta ¢ the a en Railroads Go in for Art. and infiuence that American have had in the development of the country. Would it not be an impor- tant moment in the history of art if the railroads would throw some of this influence toward a vital art? Britain the railroads have called the talents of a number of the repre- sentative artists to design posters for railroad advertising. Many of these posters can be seen in the Transporta- tion Building at Seventeenth and H streets, on the tenth floor, where the Bureau of Railroad Economtcs has ar- British posters. Frank Brangwyn, Russel Flint, Sir William Orphen and other British art- tists have not thought it bencath their dignity to design posters for the rail- roads. The resuit is highly satisfactory to the public. The dingy London Un- derground, among others, Is cheered by the presence of colorful posters which lighten the gloom of the dull period of waiting for the next train. The posters are not confined to Brit- ish artists, however. From far away Australia, from Manchuria, South Af- rica, Tasmania, the outskirts of the British holdings, to Norway, Sweden and Switzerland artists have contributed of their ideas to the posters. It is inter- esting to pass from one to another of the nearly 300 posters and review the attractions of the couniries. All the conventional Royal Academicians are out in full force and some nice things they have done too. The three by Brangwyn are strong and outstanding.

At the Yorke Gallery beginning to- morrow there will be an exhibition by a group of artists that promises to hold much interest for the public. The artists exhibiting are Mrs. Alexander Blair Thaw, who paints portraits of children chiefly. She has exhibited in Rome, London and Philadelphia, Then there is a group of younger artists ex- hibiting for the first time in Washing- ton. From all advance reports we can expect to have another taste of modern art, fresh from the making. There will be Buk Ulrich, who began life pic- turesquely as a cow puncher in Texas, Colorado and South Dakota. One of his paintings is owned by the Phillips Me- York critic, “he seems to leave tech- nique to take care of itself. Then again he draws with a delightful é@ase and precision. But we would place the em- phasis less on his workmanship than upon the refined color in certain of his tapestry designs and upon the engaging quality of his fancy.” William Schuloff, one of the youngest the American artists who have among the art critics in New York, is most successful in flower arrangement, both tn oll and water color, His work suggest a fine susceptl- bility to beauty, which is all too rare.

The leader of the Peary expedition exploits continues and will so long as men cherish the heroic and cultivate the sense of adventure in humanity. A young Yale athlete “the kid” of the expedition went with Peary and Now he is WOMAN HITS FORDS IN BOOK OF EPIGRAMS The use of the cepigram has dis- erature and it is a literary art in itself. The prevalence of the epigram in modern literature is not so great as it should be. Words, words, words seem to be the keynote of much writing of today when only a few words with a pithy thought in them would be worth so very much, more when all is said and done, The epigrammatist ever {fs the wise observer of life and a philosopher and sage if he or she is true to this calling. “Winged Arrows” by Clara Keck Heflebower (Harold Vinal, New York) has the distinction of possessing some- thing of the flavor of the true epigram and the author has not hesitated to insert a stinging truth into her words now and then. For the true epigram can not always be kindly just as life itself is not always to be found in a melting mood. The reality is what counts in life or epigram and those who can not stand reality in any form are indeed hopelessly cast in the mould of humanity. Fads Are Ridiculed., Mrs. Heflebower enjoyed writing her books. She has flung shots at the frailties, fads and follies of the world at large as a satirist must. Her peers of today. the columnists who delight untold thousands every morning or evening with thelr barbed shafts would rejoice at her fearlessness untrammeled by editorial or ownership policy, the great bugbear of such work on news- papers and other periodicals. After all, the way to say exactly what you wish to a more or less eager world is to print it in a book-~-safe from the cen- soring hands of editor or copyreader. Mrs. Heflebower has occupied a wide field in her epigrams. Some of them are in the form of short couplets or quatrains, others are in prose. A few examples of them will give glimpses into the world of mirth and satire. Adam Missed This, For instance, this one: “Old Adam was a lucky chap, The onliest of men; He never had another yap Touch him for ‘just a ten.’” And again: “I’ve often wondered why the men To widows’ charms fall prey; I’ve worked it out; it is because They've such a ‘taking’ way.” Unfortunately there is some truth in the following: “‘There are various kinds of friends. Those who are loyal to you when you're right; those who are loyal to you when you're wrong; and those who are never loyal to you.” Alley Cat Glorified. “Mamie has an ermine scarf, She sure is proud of that; But everybody seems to know It’s just an alley cat!” And there is abiding lesson in this terse thought; “On the road to success there are many half way houses, They are usually crowded!” Very true, Mrs. Heflebower.

Vital moments of American history influenced by these Americans, and the proud standard of Franklin, one of the most popular envoys ever received in France, has been held high by those who have followed after him in this post. The author has devoted his first chapter to Franklin, which is eminently right and proper. He has handled America’s philosopher statesman with consummate skill and vision, and the story of Franklin’s sojourn in Paris Is a most fascinating one. Franklin won the title of “The Sage of Passy” from the French, who were| charmed by his wit and wisdom and his know about such ventures, the ex- musk-oxen and the sports, the jokes, the griefs and triumphs of battlea with ice.

Lillian M. Gilbreth, & Co., New York.) A most estimable book. It is also a very timely book, as we are living in a fast age, when families quickly drift apart. The author does not mean liv- ing with our children in the same house, but living with them in thought, in interest, in community of spirit. Mrs. Gilbreth is one of the most emi- nent women of the country, a student of psychology, and an honorary member of the American Society of Industrial Engineers. She is the mother of eleven children and writes from her experi- ence. She sums up the whole matter in the concluding paragraph of her book, as follows: “We should realize as our ploneer forefathers did that the future, though more or less unknown, Offers a chal- lenge to every one to better the best of the past. Much remains to be dis- covered by those who choose to ex- plore; much progress remains to be made by those who choose to make of individual and group experiences a training for those who follow; better methods remain to be desired for furthering group work and ‘the enjoy- ment of that work. Best of all, there remains always greater opportunities for living with our children so that we may be educating them, slowly and surely, to meet the opportunities which will come to them in their turn in a never ending series of tomorrows.” FROM ROME TO FLORENCE. By Hub- bard Hutchinson. (G. P. Putnam’s Sons, New York.) A guide book for those who want to tour Italy by train or motor. It is much more than a mere guide book, however, it is an interesting sketch of Italy, its cities, its cathedrals, and its scenery. It is an interesting volume for the reading of those who have neither the time nor the desire to tour. HOW WE GOT OUR LIBERTIES. By Lucius B. Swift. (The Bobbs-Merrill Co., Indianapolis.) More attention is being paid to his- tcrical matters just now than at any previous time. Mr. Swift has given to the pubiic a most admirable book, trac- By (W. W. Norton ing the onward march of liberty irom !ishness and By | (The Bobbs | frankness and cordiality of manner. Thirty-seven ministers and ambassa- dors have been sent to France since Franklin, and yet his tradition in that office endures. Speaking of these men in his introduction Mr. Willson has written: Detached in Views. “These distinguished envoys were usu- ally, from their previous remoteness, disposed to regard France, French poli- tics, institutions and society, from a fresh angle. They were, perhaps, from the peculiar nature of the Franco- American tradition, more completely acceptable to the French people than the diplomatic representatives of any other nation and were often, for this reason, able to move freely in circles which the envoys of other countries found far less congenial. Unlike these latter, the Americans were hardly ever professional diplomats and so were less hampered by forms and conventions, written or unwritten. In their official reports and private letters the picture they give of contemporary France. | whether under monarchy, empire or re- public, is generally unprejudiced and detached.” The author has drawn heavily upon the official reports and private corre- spondence of these men in his book, and that ts one of its points of value. That all has not been smooth sailing for the American envoys in France is pointed out by Mr. Willson, who says: “There have been, in fact, a good many interruptions of amity, many alarming episodes and antagonisms between France and the United States, often in- volving great mental and moral strain, which has been borne chiefly by the the earliest days, especially the long Struggle in England. He has evidently been a close student of England and the English people. From the days of William of Normandy down to the adoption of our own Constitution the story is followed. It is, in short, the story of representative government. To many Americans it will be news of rather a startling *haracter that full religious liberty did not obtain in all our States until many years after the Constitution was adopted. We have al- ways referred to Boston as “the cradle 01 American liberty,” which is correct enough, but Mr. Swift emphasises that Virginia was the cradle of independence. There is not a dull chapter, not even a duil page in the entire volume, and it is a work that may well be studied by | our legislators and by voters. THE NATIVE PROBLEM IN AFRICA By Raymond Leslie Buell. (The Mac- millian Co., New York.) For many years Africa has been the shuttlecock of European nations. It has been a sort of grab bag, out of which other and stronger peoples have drawn fortunes, with little or no regard to the moral question of right and wrong. Every government of Europe has taken at least one slice, and some of the stronger have grabbed half a dozen large and rich slices. They have not asked the natives for their consent, but have grabbed at will. Africa is yet to prove a problem for other nations as well as of the native population to wrestle with. Hrof. Buell has given us the present situation in that continent and the conditions confronting the natives There, as elsewhere, is a growing de- mand for self government, and this de- mand is likely to complicate matters for the grabbing governments. The sit- uation as it is at present, and the future of Africa is a matter of great interest to all the rest of the world. What West- ern civilization can do, what will be the result of the League of Nations man- dates are among the problems yet to be solved. The author has given close aud intensive study to all sides of the ques- tion. UP EEL RIVER. By Margaret Prescott Montague. (The Macmillan Co., New York.) A laugh-provoking story of a mythica) lumber camp and those who dweil there. The Eel River has ao Case e€x- istence, neither has the lumber camp, nor any of the characters represented, but the author has made them actuaily existent, each playing its part in the story. If you do not want to laugh at the extravangances of the folk lore stor- les do not read “Up Eel River.” NOVEMBER NIGHT. By the author of Miss Tiverton Goes Out. (the Bobbs Merrill Co., New York.) This anonmyous author has added another intensely interesting volume to the collection of her works, which include not only “Miss Tiverton Goes Out,” but “This Day’s Madness” and “The House Made With Hands,” all of which have had their day of triumph in the novel reading world. The author described the chief woman character in this book, Dehise the wife, as absorbed and selfish until she finds her rebirth in the prospect ‘of the birth of her child. We venture to say that she has misinterpreted the character she has protrayed. her character until she looks forward to her child with en ever sense of self- | self-absorption, She even well-disposed emissaries sent to Paris to uphold the moral and material in; terests of their country.” Sentiment Big Factor. + But he continues, “Nevertheless, hap- pily, in the midst of the most inflamed controversies, there has always been one powerful sentimental factor to which the peace party amongst both people could make an unfailing appeal. It is the memory of the sympathy and succor which France lent the infant American Republic in its struggle for independence. * * * The legehd,- embellished by the picturesque figure of Lafayette, still holds as firmly as ever, and the force and sanctity of the bond then forged have not been dimin- ished by later quarrels. It has rather been strengthened by time. Like that other international factor, the Anglo- Amercian tradition, also a theme for oratory; a common blood and language and a joint heritage in Shakespeare and Blackstone: it will always be invoked, and successfully invoked, whenever Ma- terial interests clash and national aims and claims appear for the moment ir- reconciliable.” ey There was relief among all the friends of America in Europe when six months after the colonies had declared their independence Congress sent over the aged and illustrious Benjamin Franklin as envoy to France. He was then the only living American with an interna- tional reputation. Even Gen. Wash- ington was barely known there, Jefferson Came Next. After Franklin’s arrival the cause of the United States made much more rapid progress. His success and won- derful career there is well known and he served until 1785 when the infirmi- ties of old age forced him to ask for his recall. Thomas Jefferson followed him in the post at a time when the shad- ows of revolution had already begun to fall across the fair fields of France. In Jefferson his service created only @ warmer love and admiration for France. When he retired as minister he wrote a panegyric the memory of which is cherished by the French peo- e. In it he said: “I can not leave this great and good country without ex- pressing my sense of its preeminence of character amon, the nations of the earth. A more benevolent people I have never known, nor greater warmth and cdevotedness in their select friendships. “In a comparison of this with other countries we have the proof of primacy, which was given to Themistocles after the battle >of Salamis. Every general voted to himself the first reward of valor, and the second to Themistocies. To ask the traveled inhabitants of any nation, ‘In what country on earth would you rather live?’—Certainly in my own, | where are all my friends, my relations, and the >arliest and sweetest affections ;and recollections of my Ufe. ‘Which | would be your second choice?’ France.” Monroe Had Tremble. Monroe, 37 years old, went to France as United S*ates Minister as the storm of the revolution began to gather over th: heads of the French people. His service there was not particularly happy, but he was able, with the assistance of Mrs. Monroe, to save Mme. de la Fayette, wife of America’s friend, from execu- tion during the terror. So the story continues from genera- tion to generation, noted Americans serving their country faithfully and well in this land of liberty beyond the seas. Mr. Willson has done a notable service to the history of both countries in thus preserving in this readable and accurate way the record of the diplo- matic relations between them. E. E. P. resents her husband speaking of the coming baby as “our baby.” The only person she seems to be willing to sacrifice for at all is her ne’er do well brother. Her husband, her mother and sister and their prob- lems only seem to bore her. Of course, there is no doubt that the reaction in the mind of each reader will be a different one as regards this woman, There will be universal ad- miration for the qualities of her hus- band, who loves his wife in spite of her callousness and indifference to his wishes and happiness. The woman ap- pears to be a pretty poor sport. Even, in her turning toward religion and the Roman Catholic Church in her fright for the future, she shows only a cone sideration for herself ane looks on the church as something she can get some- thing out of rather than something to which she can give anything. The last chapter in which the hopes and fears of both the man and the woman go crashing to earth with the passing of the babe after one feeble cry. It is then that the disconsolate mother in her first awakening turned to the man she has s0 little considered to ask if he could possibly spare her some- thing of affection. The book ts delicately and well writ ten. One is led to believe that had the Roland of her early girlhood lived and her dreams of triumph as a singer bee fore she lost her voice been realized, she might have been a strong, courage- ous character. It must be acknowle- edged that one is arrested by the pre- cise and beautiful diction of this writer’s pen and the vividness and dra- matic tension she gives to some of her chapters without necessarily giving them to her characters.. This book is perhaps a new kind of modernism, in- dividual but remarkable in its lack of the faintest trace of the sordidness of problem plays or sex novels of the cure rent era. SCOTCH VALLEY. By Mildred Cram, (Doubleday, Doran & Co., New York.) Capt. Jim Gladden let a skinny little fellow in the war take a risk which killed him and he could not forget his last words of the wife and five children and their poverty. So after the war was over Jim set out to find the Smith family, and came upon them in Scotch Valley, five children, hungry and dirty; a ranch from which the water supply had been diverted by & scheming neighbor, and not a cent. But the valiant captain worked through and his struggles brought their just reward, of course, romance. ee EDWARD F. GRUVER CO.

COWL MERELY WAS A VOICE AT THE START Jane Cowl, who returns in “The Road to Rome” for a week’s engagement at Poli’s Monday, started her theatrical career as an “extra girl.” David Be- lasco gave the ambitious young student from Brooklyn her first line. It was an off-stage voice in “The Easiest Way.” At that time, sensing the advantages of a broad education, Miss Cowl began to | attend lectures at Columbia University, | where she studied philosophy, econome- | lcs, advanced history, as well as literae | ture and drama. While at the unie- | versity she continued her stage work, The male chorus, accompanist, vill James L. McLain sing “Let Livery rt A te te ee ee . ART PLAYERS V THEN the grey dawn of realism spread over the Ameriean thea- ter, the cry went forih that romance was not for the stage. so romance, temporarily, classic, historic drama, went into the silences, It became almost extinct, Astute managers laid down the axiom that Shakespeare and others of i.is ilk spelled ruin; that the classics were dead; that such plays often rcierred to as high-brow were meant only for the library, Along came a few students of the drama who thought otherwise, and a new lease on life manifested itself. Romance came soon to the boards. = . . * ] AY," applied to the governing powers of the theater, some years ago, iiey virtually laughed him out of the playhouse, in their theaters and was refused recognition, ~ No cooperation from the magnates, Walter Hampden was compelled to rent theaters, skating rinks, halls, and in one instance a garage, where, with a coterie of devoted players, who believed in his abilities, he played liamlet and played it well to critical and enthusiastic audiences. After a year of strenuous and lucrative efforts he gradually began to secure theaters here and there, therein to disclose his abilities and the artistic effort he was making to resuscitate the waning expression of art, of which he considered himself a part, 7 Then the Hampden star began to ascend, until the ambition of his life was realized five years ago when he dedi- cated his repertory theater within the walls of the National Theater, With it went the He asked for bookings It has kept on ascending | GIVE DRAMA _ OF NEAREAST The will pervade the Wardman |Park Theater on Tuesday and Wednes- |day nights of this week when the Arts HEN Walter Hampden, a player of profound thought and purpose, | Club their jayers of Washington present 1928 production of G.

Here he produced ‘‘Caponsacchi,’’ which ran for 325 performances; also “An Enemy of the People,’’ which ran for 127 performances and estab- lished a record run for Ibsen; then “Henry V,”’ besides revivals of ‘‘Ham- let’’ and ‘‘The Merchant of Venice.”’ a... HAMPDEN’S appearance here this week in the Belasco Theater marks his first excursion from his own temple of art in something like four years, It hardly seems that long since Washington journeyed to the south side of the Avenue, there to see the marvelous portrayal of “Cyrano,” As some one puts it, “Tempus has a way of fugitting.”’ The long career of Walter Hampden in New York is a tribute that at- tests to the popularity of his contributions to the American theater, An institution that only a few years ago was looked upon as a hair-brained fantasy, came, eventually, to be a financial as well as an artistic suc- cess, As an actor, Walter Hampden will always be remembered best for his Mauson in “The Servant in the House.” At least, that is the opinion f a few old-line theatergoers who gathered in this sanctum not so long ‘go to discuss the man and his work. The Rann Kennedy play, inci- lentally, made a star of Hampden; or, at least, gave him his one great opportunity, Since then he has contributed notable portraits to his gal- lery, such memorable character studies as the poignant idealism of “Hamlet,” the famboyant and undefeated Gasconade of “Cyrano,” the racial shrewdness and majesty of ‘‘Shylock,’’ and now the Renaissance glamour of ‘‘Caponsacchi.”’ ADE from Browning’s poem, “The Ring and the Book,” the play M that witnesses Hampden’s return to Washington after too long un interval, it seems, is one that brings a Washingtonian to the pedestal of high authorship. Rose A, Palmer, co-author with Arthur Richinan, has managed to hide herself away in the Smithsonian Institute, There are playwrights and playwrights in the city, but few who have attained the heights reached by this woman—for ‘‘Capsonsacchi”’ is an outstand- ing work; one that will not readily be forgotten, once seen. In New York last season, I saw Walter Hampden play it—and of all the dramas then viewed on Broadway, or its tributaries, this left the most lasting impression, ' “Caponsacchi” will be played tomorrow, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings and Wednesday matinee. With all due respect to the other plays—even ‘‘Hamlet’’—I, for one, am glad that this is so. It will give Washington and its theatergoers plenty of time and opportunity to see a masterful stage presentation. Ibsen's ‘“‘An Enemy of the People’ and Shakespeare’s “‘Hamlet”’ are the added attractions strung out through a week that should be memorable in local theaterdom. | James i Zavell: a 'ance of most | Director Denis E.

KURT HETZEL IN RECITAL Ls Significant, among the events musica) scheduled on tiis week's calendar is the recital of Kurt Hetzel, pianist, at the Mayflower Hotel hallroom on next Friday afternoon at 4:20. This recital, sponsored by the so- cially prominent, brings to Washington music adherents one of the exceptional pianists among those sojourning in America. This one appearance of Mr. Hetzel will be in the nature of a hail ,and farewell—it is his last appearance before returning to the continent for |a@ concert tour next season. Mr. Hetzel is a well-known figure in | music circles—he needs no introduc- _ tion to Washington audiences—and hs established an eiviable reputation in many European countries. His career reads like a myth. He was born a prodigy. playing the piano at the tender age of 5. His first public appear- ance before an audier:ce of 1,000 people was at the age of 9; at 15 he conducted his first opera. The rest is a record of maturer progression: A coach at Mann- heim Hoftheater; conductor at Stras- burg; conductor at Royal Opera House, Munich; with the Berlin Philharmonic; then to America to apnear in New York, Chiceto. Boston and other centers.

This show comes with the enthusiastic indorsement of the press and of burlesque “fans” all along the circuit. It is credited with a present- ius company of more than ordinary en- tertafnment skill, all of whom have been provided with new comedy, new music, new Gances anc? with surround- ing scenic and costume ments that would do credit to a pre- tentious Broadway revue. The princi- pal players are Harry Feldman, Billy Wild, George Kinnear, Fred Steger, Genevieve Phillips, Blanche Soure and Ina Blair, every one of whom has ac- quired distinct popularity in this form of amusement. The chorus of sixteen shrapely girls is referred to as far above the average in all of those reqitisites the lack of which would, just natu- rally. be disastrous to any burlesque company. Close Call. While filming “Simba,” the wild ani- mal picture at Poli’s Mr. and Mrs. Mar- tin Johnson were at one time sur- rounded by fourteen lions.

Always recognized technique, Ibsen put quality into his plays as construction, “An Enemy of the Peo- ple,”’ so long neglected in the American theater, many laughs in it as most farces, even though underlying the humor there is powerful drama and i biting satire Mary Shaw, as a master: of entertainment has as who was one of players to get Ibsen accepted this country, can speak eloquently upon how hopeless the outlook seemed thir- vy years ago. The tiae in began to turn a bit along about 1907 when Alla Nazimova began ;acting in English and appeared “Hedda Gabler,” “A Doll's House,” and “The Master Builder’ at the old Princ- c and Bijou Theaters under Miller’s Management, Now that Walter Hampden has made isuch a success as Dr. Stockmann in “An | Enemy of the People.” it is pleasant to Lo | well as perfect | the first in | Henry | lrecall that he shared Nazimova's cesses al that time..

Then came Eva Le Galllenne’s distinctive success in “The Master | Builder,” “John Gabriel Borkman” “Hedda Gabler,” plays whicN are now permanently placed in her repertoire }and among the most popular In which ‘she appears. More astonishing perhaps 'was Mrs. Fiske’s success on tour last senson in “Ghosts,”’ long- considered the most forbidding and least commercial of all Tosen’s plays. comes. Walter Hampden’'s pre- sentation of “An Enemy of | ple,” acknowledged to be Ibsen’s most ' deliciously satirical comedy. | All the old-fashioned bugaboo about 'Ibsen’s plays being gruesome has been ‘knocked higher than “Gilroy's kite” with the breezy presentation of “An Enemy of the People” by Walter Hamp- den. It is to be regretted that Ibsen | not live long enough to see this wave of popularity obliterate the many ob- istacles that were placed to retard his ‘early career as a dramatist. ' ‘ ' ay NOW FAMOUS PLAY REVIVED BY LOCAL CAST Yielding to insistent demands for a public presentation of “The Dybbuk,” after their sensational success in a private performance last Monday night, the Jewish Community Center Players will repeat Ansky'’s famous play next Sunday night at the center. Winners of the intercommunity cen- ter play tournament last year with their presentation of “The Potboilers,” a one-act comecay, the Jewish Center Dramatic Society last fall decided to undertake something really worth while and started rehearsals for “The Dybbuk.” Ansky’s play had been pre- sented in Yiddish anud in Hebrew, both in this country and in Europe, with marked success, but few had seen the play in English. The center players little realized what a difficult task they had under- taken. Alvin Neuberger, of Baltimore, was obtained to coach the _ troupe. Scheduled for prod:iction in the early winter, the play was postponed time and again because of difficulties en- countered. Finally, after more than six months of rehearsals, ‘The Dybbuk”’ was tried out Mondav night on an in- vited list of center members. Irate L. Saapiro. director of chil- dren’s classes at the center, who had been identified with several musical] shov.s, was in the leading role of Leah, the “wish maiden In whose body the dybbuk (or spirit) took refuge. Aaron Rosenthal, Milton Korman, Nathan Freehof, Dr. Charles Gordon and others who had had several years of experience in amateur theatricals filled other leading roles. The cOgtumes and stage settings had been designed by members of the Center Dramatic Society. | The performance, many declared, compared favorably with those given by the famous Vilva troupe last sea- son in New York. All waxed enthu- siastic about the artisiry of Kate Sha- piro. She was a perfect Leah. So the play will be repeated next Sunday night before a larger public, to feel the judgment of the few is borne ou : ‘ CHEVY CHASE LAKE OPENS ' IN MAYTIME Chevy Chase Lake will open for the summer amusement season on Wecnes- day, May 9, according to announcement from the Meyer Davis offices. Dancing to the music of two ace Meyer Davis bands will again be ithe featured attraction of this alWays pop- ular resort.

Another leading Mever Davis band not yet announced, will hold forth on the Iewer pavilion. This unit will be 'a large one of seven or eight musicians ‘and is expected to feature the full bracs band effects that go so well at ou’ or resorts. Refurbishment of the lake has been going on for several weeks and has in- cluded the installation of a brand-new hardwood danc” floor on the upper dance pavilion as well as a full dress of bright new paint for both the pavil- ions, the refreshment stands and vari- ous concessions.

The popular “Three Als Trio,” includes Al Sokol, Al Norton and the director. Programs presented by tie trio are always 100 per cent in both melody and comedy qualities. Other members of the Syncopators who figure both as musicians and vaudeville artists are Charlie O’Donnell, King House and Nat Abrams. The season just drawing to a close at Swanee has been one of the most suc- cessful ever experienced by this resort. A large portion of the Swanee popularity is atcribeble to the versatility of its nightly programs and the many specia! novelty nights which are staged from time to time. These novelty nights are usually of a carnival nature and feature special entertainment, souvenirs and ap- 1 propriate dec-rative effects, ‘ ; ’ | i ' } ! j } to have definitely arrived | Ameri- | | | | the Peo- | ! | Schools Dr. Rae Martell —Gayety.

The season of 1915-16 she starred in “Common Clay,’ another long-run triumph. One of her greatest successes was “Lilac Time,” which she wrote in col- laboration with Jane Murfin. Miss Cowl was also coauthor of “Daybreak” and “Information Please” After “The Crowded Hour” came one of the most popular of her starring vehicles, “Smil- ing Through,” of which she was co- ‘author and in which she played over /a thousand times. In this play was foreshadowed the exquisite poetic quality subsequently | developed in her performance of Juliet. | A modern Spanish play “Malvaloca” by ithe brothers Quintero in 1922 was fol- lowed by her production of “Romeo and | Juliet.’”” Miss Cowl’s Juliet was acclaim- 'ed as that of no other actress since Ade- laide Neilson, half a century ago. After the longest consecutive run of any Shakespearean play, Miss Cowl toured in “Romeo and Juliet” for two seasons. Her revivals of Maeterlinck’s “Pelleas |}and Melisande” and Shakespeare's “An- | tony and Cleopatra” in New York were 'followed by a return to modern drama ,in 1925, playing the role of Larita in | Noel Coward's “Easy Virtue” at the Em- pire Theater. It was in this play that |Miss Cowl made her first appearance on ‘the London stage, where her season at 'the Duke of York’s Theater was a cone 'tinoustriumph. At her closing perform- }ance she received a petition signed by , thousands of English playgoers begging her soon to return to London. In January 1927, Miss Cowl brought “The Road to Rome” to Balasco’s Thea- ter, Washington. Her enthusiastic re- ception here registered another success. The play has had a year’s run in New York and long engagements in Boston and Philadelphia. “THE PAT SY.

They _will present it to the public on the eve- inings of May 7 and 8 at St. Paul’s Au- ditorium, V and Fifteenth streets north- ‘west, for the benefit of the parish school. This sparkling play, in which Clal- borne Foster starred several seasons ago, has been selected as being well suited to the talents of this group of players. The Mackin Troupe has been seen in a number of the popular modern comedy-drafhas, but none that is more entertaining than their present vehicle, The cast includes the following well- known Washington players: Miss Milis, Miss Grace Sprucebank, Miss Edith Patterson, Luke Fegan, Edward Dillon and John C, Phelan. Home of Revues. With the premiere of the new “Greenwich Village Follies,” the Wine ter Garv.en, New York, began its eighte eenth year. It is perhaps the only theater in this country which confines its productions to the revue type of entertainment, and it has, in @ way, become a Manhattan institution. The history of this theater contains names of many artists who have be- come internationally famous _ stars, some of them being Al Jolson, Wynn, Eddie Cantor, Marilyn Eugene and Willie Howard, Frank Tin- ney, Gaby Desrlys, Irene Bordont, Ins Claire, Nora Bayes, Bert Williams, the Dolly Sisters and Mitzi.

The occa- s.0n Was the opening of “The Breaks” written and acted by J. C. and Elliott Nugent. The play itself needs no re- port, for it was generally panned by the first-night critics and ran one short unprofitable week. But it will serve, W6 all hope, as a fresh start for a man dear and endeared to the theater—a man who a few years ago lost the use of his sight, which, according to most producers, prohibited him carrying on his work. The failure of the play was due largely to the play itself which for the authors of “Kempy” was pretty bad, and to the fact that the jovial-faced, rotund Papa Nugent, a most lovable personality, was absolutely miscast for the part of the heavy villain he essayed; the failure was not due to the direc- tion. There was much jubilation after the performance. Edith Wynne Matthison, looking more beautiful than ever, pre- sented to the director a scroll on which were written the names of Mr. Duncan’s chief friends in the theater; Mr. Ans- pacher made one of his florid, dramatic, sentimentally heroic addresses which praised Mr. Duncan to such an extent that the director himself was forced to remark that while listening in the wings he had several times heard his name mentioned but could not believe that the declamation could possibly be about himself. After the speeches the stage was cleared, and dancing was be- gun upon it. The ceremony proceeded but in a less superserious manner, Raymond Hitchcock arrived. re- marked that he could neither sing nor dance and was therefore in musical comedy and paid a handsome tribute to Richard Herndon, the manager, for his generosity and foresight in placings a play into Augustin Duncan’s hands. Then Anna Duncan danced and the shade of Isadore hovered over the as- sembly. The sweet faced girl in her flowing Grecian velis dancing her song of springtime seemed that night to have a mid-Victorian quality; yet it is just such a dance as this which only @ few years ago when performed by the genius who originated it quite shocked the socalled refined sensibilities of the good people of both America and Europe. The party was fun; but in talking of it I have lost the point of my story —Augustin Duncan. They praised him heartily and cheered him many times: and it is true that he has done many a worthy thing for the American the- ater—"John Ferguson,” “S. Tenac- ity,” and “Juno and the Paycock,” be- ing @ few productions in w hich he was both director and chief actor. But the most remarkable thing of all is that this man who is still blind could direct “The Breaks” and show a direction far better than the average. I was talking to a member of the cast after the per- formance, who told me, belleve it or not, that at rehearsals Mr. Duncan was able by a sort of extra sense to feel where the people were standing upon the stage. He would say, “Miss Sidney you should come a little further down,” or, “Mr. Nugent, stand nearer the door.” His love for the theater is s0 great, his knowledge of it so keen that eyes are practically unnecesary in the direction of the play. Skeptics will say that this is not possible, at least not when the play is a farce-melodrama such as “The Breaks,” dependent large- ly on business and movement—but it is none the less true. There is actually something psychic about the direction of the play, some- thing that few of us know much about. Direction is not simply “stand here” or “go there,” it is the development, the building up of an inner harmony. The theater is a composite art depen- dent upon its branches. Playwright, ac- tor, designer, technical director, elec- triclan, costumer, carpenter, architect and the amount of moncy to be spent, all influence a dramatic production. Now each branch acts as a distinct personality with ideas, points of view quite different from the ideas and points of view of the other branches. Nay more, most of the branches, such as the actors, for instance, are made up within themselves of several individual personalties, each one of which with ideas and points of view different from the others. Every individual has some- thing to say and it is impossible to conceive that these various personall- ties, unguided, will say the same thing or even things in harmony. It its like some Tower of Babel, each man speak- ing a different language. Unity seems impossible. It is the director who, after conferring with all these branches, after making himself cognizant of the abilities and limitations of each must translate these tongues into a single la age, must bring harmony out of , the chaos and through a corrected and simplified unity translate the soul of the play. He is the invisible Greek chorus that sees that the drama is transmitted in a@ clarified form to the audience. Realizing this it can be seen that eyesight which offhand we are apt . to say is of such importance is but a small factor necessary to the director, for if these various groups, made up as they are of different personalities, work with an inner harmony the chances are that the positions of the actors upon the stage are likely to be right. I can actually believe, then, that Mr. Dun- can, sensing a discord, could realize that it might be corrected if Miss Sid- ney came “a little further down” or Mr. Nugent stood ‘“‘nearer the door.” A few paragraphs above I remarked that what was the one-time daring ciamoe of a Duncan appears almost mid- Victorian today. It is amazing how swiftly ideas can change. Take “Our »’ by Somerset Maugham. It was considered quite a naughty play less ten years ago: today it appears ; ph @ little prudish. I do not say that its frankness concerning morality LESLIE HOWARD, featured in John Gals- on “The Escape,” the Belasco er ee week, May 7. the New Y ork Stage By ROBERT BELL was the cause of its failure In America when first produced: for human nature itself does not change and it liked naughtiness then quite as much as today; only ideas as to what constituted naughtiness are different now than then. The failure was due to the fact that at that time the war was close and we Allies, so we told ourselves, were all brothers under the skin, and in this piay Americans, so we then thought, were poked fun at by an Englishman who should have had more brotherly love. America had not then quite -e- alized that it and it alone had won the war and that all the nations of the world kowtowed to it! We were a little shy, a little afraid of being laughed at. Ncw we are not so shy and the fact that today we may be laughed at more than ever does not upset us for we are afraid of nothing. Furthermore we have re- alized that the allied nations may not after all be blood brothers—say only second cousins at best! As a matter of fact “Our Betters” docs not run down Americans half as much as it does foreigners—the one really de- cent person in the play is an American boy. It its the story of American women of wealth marrying titles—even today this is sometimes done—and points out the joint error of such matches. The play is a comedy of man- ners with one scene built up as dra- matically (almost) and somewhat in the manner of the famous screen scene in “The School for Scandals.” It attempts, sometimes not unsuccessfully, to depict the spirit of a modern restoration comedy. XY found tt on the whole but mild entertainment despite the fact that the lovely Ina Claire did her best with a thankless role. The joy of the evening was Constance Collier as the Duchesse de Surennes. This was joy indeed— comedy that never missed its mark and which never left the bounds of reality. The few people in Washington who saw Miss Collier this winter in an impossible play entitled “A Spot in the Sun” will remember that in this play Was an elderly woman who carried about with her a young man (as I remember her dancing partner) very much in the manner some elderly ladies carry Pekingese. It happens that in “Our Betters” it is Miss Collier who is playing just such a role, while the part not unlike the one Miss Collier origin- ated in Washington is taken by Ina Claire. This footnote is made merely to state the coincidence; for Miss Col- lier resembles in no way whatsoever and of course does not imitate the actress who essayed this kind of a role in “A Spot in the Sun.” I had the pleasure the other day of hearing Miss Constance Collier address & group of young stucents of acting. She said something which, while not unusual, is significant. She said that she never studied a gesture, never knew how she read a certain line—merely that she tried to create mentally the character, allowed her mind to respond to the stimulus of the author and that the vocal inflections and gestures came of their own free will. It is merely that Miss Collier more than most grasps with surety the potential comedy, allows gestures and. inflections to move freely and fully—the result be- ing that the Duchess de Surennes in “Our Betters” is perhaps the chief comedy joy of the present scason. ROOF TOP WILL OPEN WITH BANG While Le Paradis and the Club Chan- tecler are progressing toward the cul- mination of one of their most success- ful seasons, intensive preparations are also. going forward for the opening of the Le Paradis Roof Garden. Opening date for the roof is not yet announced, but is expected to be conditioned upon the development of some real summer veather. Just as soon as a few really hot days show up the roof will be opened, so that Le Paradis patrons may enjoy dancing in the open air. Redecoration of the roof that is go- ing forward includes not only a new frock of rainbow paints in Spanish col- ors but large quantities of spick and span new furnishings and the installa- tion of real garden effects in a lavish use of evergreens, vines and gay flower- ing plants. Le Paradis gayeties and Club Chante- cler frivolties continue at the same steady pace, with Directors Harry Al- bert and Paul Fidelman continuing to dispense large quantities of whoopee in the way of novel and scfntillant dance music. Bert Bernath is doing the honors as special entertainer for the Club Chan- tecler. He specializes in the singing of popular songs in French, German and Spanish, making his own translations. TWO STARS GET STARTS It runs in an axiom for the young, who would succeed, that he, who does not recognize the knock of opportunity and lets the door stay closed, is he who never will rise to fame and fortune. There is the other, opposite tenet tenaciously held by some that no man May escape his fate, whether or not he listens at the portal of chance. And this story has to do with destiny. When Jane Cowl was casting “Romeo and Juliet,” she had in mind for the part of Mercutio two young actors, neither famous but both well considered for what they had done and what they might do, Lesiie Howard and Dennis King. Howard was urged by his friends not to ignore this stepping stone to success, but he demurred and King was given the role. King made a personal hit as Mercutio and it was not long be- he he was featured in “The Vagabond ing.” In the meantime, Howard went along jas best he could, which was a pretty /good best when it is recalled that he | Was as much talked about in the vari- | ous plays he acted as were the stars ‘themselves. And now, while Dennis | King, side tracked from the classics, is ‘starring in “The Three Musketecrs,” Leslie Howard is appearing in the lead- ing character in one of the most com- pelling of this season’s dramas, John Galsworthy’s “Escape,” produced by Winthrop Ames, and it is not a far fetched possibility that the day is not distant when this young actor, who de- rp Mercutio, will be acting “Ham- et.” Yankee Doodle Dandy. George M. Cohan wrote “The Baby Cyclone,” to be seen tomorrow night at the opening of the National Players’ fourth season. Cohan’s name has come to stand for two things in the theater, superlative entertainment and clean entertainment.

The Meyerj|o Davis society orchestras have played for & majority of the more important so~ clety functions. Several large and very important or- chestras, ranging from 50 to 75 musi- cians, have also been created. The 50- plece orchestra for the Fox Theater, which was assembled by the Meyer Da- vis organization, is admittedly one of the finest musical units ever brought to the Capital, Another signal achievement of the seas®® was the assembling of a 75-plece dance music orchestra, personally led by Mr. Davis.

A trend toward sophisticated dance music of the European type is reported by Mr. Davis as oné of the most signifi- While this trend does not apply to the generality musical engagements, it stated that it is an important factor in dance engagements played for the s0- ciety world. “Soclety hostesses are gen- erally showing a partiality for music that adds to rhythm a intricateness of melody,” said vis. “The whole effect must light, very gay and smart.” The Club Chantecler instenced by Mr. 1S ertain Mr. Da- be very Orchestra of music that strongly with is registering most socie.y people.

The Club Chantecler Orchestra has recently played for functions given at Italian, Hungarian and Netherlands | Embassies and at dances given by Mrs. Dwight Davis, Mrs. Parker Corning, Mrs. Peter Goelet Gerry, Mrs. Joseph Leiter, Mrs. Fleming Newbold, Drew Pearson and many others.

MEYER DAVIS, Washington orchestra mag- nate, finishing one of the greatest seasons in_ the career of his organization. Coming Theater Attractions John Galsworthy’s “Escape,” which ran for a season in London and five months in New York, will be presented with Leslie Howard in the leading role Sy Winthrop Ames in the Belasco Thea- ter the week of Monday, May 7. Winthrop Ames produced Galswor- thy’s “Strife,” “The Pigeon,” “Old Eng- lish,” which George Arliss acted for three years, and “Escape” in America. He also has staged “The Merchant of Venice” for Arliss and the Gilbert and ‘Sullivan operas, among his many notable productions. Galsworthy is the outstanding figure among English dramatists. Matt Denant, the leading character in “Escape,” is drawn by circumstances outside his control, into defending the Girl of the Town from a police officer. An argument follows in which Denant strikes the policeman. He falls and hits his head against the park railing, which kills him. For this, Denant is sent to prison. He escapes, but is hounded over the country, not only by the officers of the law, but by civilians who see it to be their duty to ald the law. Not every-~ one, however, is against Denant. One of the most powerful scenes in modern drama is the last episode of “Escape”’ wherein the Parson finds thé problem almost too difficult for him to solve. “Escape” is in ten scenes.

One of the busiest diplomats im- aginable is the central figure of the farce-comedy, “Take My Advice,” which the National Players will offer for the second week of their season, beginning May 7. This gentleman, a school teacher who is long. on theory and short on solu- saving the city. tion, surprises himself by actually set- tling the affairs of a turbulent house- hola in which he Its Hving; he breaks up a calf-love attachment one of his pupils has for an older man; he saves the head of the house from a wildcat venture; he eaves the daughter from yielding to the iImportunities of an actor and wins her for himself, Of course, there are obstacles in his path. These lead to the complications that make the play an El Dorado of merriment, In the end, however, he manages a real Nick Carter denouement and everything turns out just perf-ctly lovely. Elliott Lester, a Philadelphia uni- versity professor, wrote “Take My Ad- vice,” and Ralph Morgan and Vivian Tobin had the leads during its run at the Belmont Theater in New York last season. The play has not heretofore been seen in Washington. A Complete Arsenal Used for Protection Hunting big game with a camera, the sort of expedition which is so pop- war since the advent of the motion picture, always sounds both interesting amd dangerous. The mental picture of an intrepid explorer, standing in front of a charging elephant or lion, calmly turning @ crank so that these jungie denizens may be shown to posterity, is a thrilling idea. Somehow or other, the explorer escapes, to bring his pic- tures back to the theater, One of the finest examples of camera hunting ever shown on the screen Is the photographic record of the four- year trip to Africa made by Mr. and Mrs. Martin Johnson, and now being shown at Polil’s Theater under the title of “Simba.” The photographic arma- ment carried by the Johnsons com- prised 21 cameras of different sorts and sizes. Their bag of game secured with this outfit and now shown on the screen included lions, leopards, elephants, rhinoceros, hippopotamus and hundreds of giraffes, antelopes, ostrichs and other animals. The screen Osa facing all shows both Martin and kinds of wild beasts, ferocious and otherwise, and steadily grinding away at the camera crank. But the other outfit carried along by these hunters {is not shown to any extent. Simply in case emergencies should arise in which regular arms would be needed, the Johnson party took almost a complete arsenal. — Twice a Year. Twice a year the warriors of the Lumbva tribe in interior Africa go out to kill lions which prey on their cattle.

The follow- ing year found him with Victor Her- bert’s opera, “Eileen.” Kind fate and bad German marks- manship allowed him to return to New York in 1919, where he joined with the musical comedy, “Rose of China.” The following years found him with some of the pronounced hits, includ- ing “Sally,” “Oh, Boy.” “No, No, Na- nette” and with “Funny Face.” SHUBERT Bob Leonard Signs.

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, ‘APRIL 29, 1928. The Vulgarities Are Not The Fountain-Head of Fun By NELSON B. BELL T is with the utmost reluctance that I touch briefly today upon a topic which. I have long deluded myself into cataloguing among those things not of sufficient moment to deserve comment. In admitting my previous consistent adherence to error, I wish to make clear that the azure tints of the reformer are not to be found among my pigments, I am an average, though perhaps slightly biase and a little hard-boiled, theater audience. Prof. Phelps has never petitioned me to lecture his efasses in Shakespeare, my avowed predilection for the low brow having long since destroyed whatever elaim I might ever have had to rate a yvenking with the heavyweights! But there are certain things to which I seriously object in the theater —etther articulate or dedicated to the so-called silent drama. One of them is vulgarity. Familiar as I am with the various turpitudes, I still ean detect the germs of sound and salutary drama in situations which hinge upon vicarious deviations from the strict moral code. Many plays have been railed at for desecrations which I have not at all been able to perceive. Numerous pictures also have been condemned for sins which have seemed to me to be virtues. But I have never been able to accept nastiness as a manifestation of the divine afflatus or the true spirit of the theater. And nastiness is rearing its slimy head with constantly increasing daring in our current pictures. I do not mean to say that pernicious subject matter is more and more being made the foundation of. our camera drama, but I do mean that too many pictures are embodying momentary flashes that might far better be left out of films designed for the unblushing edification of family and feminine trade. e a ot T is no part of my purpose to place this journal upon the same plane ] as the pictures to which I object—or rather, the portions of pictures to which I object—by outlining in detail the character of the action that annoys me. I shall go no further than to state that I am not referring to obscenity, profanity or suggested jmmorality—although I have no wish, either, to be construed as applauding these doubtful elements of drama—but only to the crass vulgarities that are neither funny nor in any sense an aid to dramatic effect. It is a wholly safe assumption that this typewriter is not alone sed resenting the introduction of offenses in the films for which a caller | would be ejected from any respectable drawing room. The utilization of the salivary glands, excrement, carefully mouthed blasphemies and the sodden practices of those strata of society ostracized from polite con- | Sal tacts by reason of their filth do not, in my narrow view, fall among the | more salubrious of our accepted comedy devices. Without designating those bits of pictured action which have largely prompted this reference to a condition that I believe to be merely a. | transitory phase of picture making, perhaps a natural accompaniment of | what has come to be known as the “jazz age,’’ I shall go only so far as to say that monentary revulsions have been occasioned this carping com- mentator by such a quick succession of recent releases as is represented by Griffith’s “Drums of Love,” “The Private Life of Helen of Troy,” “A Girl in Every Port,” ““Man, Woman and Sin,” “The Crowd,” ‘‘McFadden’s Flats.” “Tillie’s Punctured Romance,” “Fireman, Save My Child,” “The Big Noise” and numerous others not in any sense objectionable in their entirety, but all guilty of episodic transgressions that have been thor- oughly distasteful in their total indifference to the reactions of those who do not view indelicacy—and that is a very kind word—as an infallible | source of amusement. 1 problem of the theater man has always been, is to determine what the thetférgoing public wants and then to supply that entertainment need. It is not an easy or a simple task. To the successful accomplishment of this undertaking, it seems to me, breadth of vision is the first and prime essential. In choosing pictures * * * - for exhibition on the screen of the commercial theater it is not possible | to chart a fixed policy that will definitely eliminate pictures of a certain | Pictures can | not be appraised by groups or specified designations—such as “West- | It is for this reason that [| in | whose letter to Mr. William A.

Mr. Jarodsky says, among many other things, this: “The following types of pictures are disastrous and the aftermath following them is very noticeable: Sob stuff, costume pictures (generally—there are some ex-~ ceptions), epics and educational pictures and pictures with sad endings.” If one were to be guided by Mr. Jarodsky’s blanket condemnations he could not run in his theater such admirable films, were they to recur, as | or “We Americans,” to select at random two widely cep- | “Madam X” arated features that certainly must be listed among the “sob stuff;’’ ‘‘Passion,” greatest of all “costume pictures;” “The Covered Wagon,” “Old Ironsides,” ‘‘The Iron Horse” or any of the other “epics;’’ *‘Simba,” educational at least to those of us who have never hunted anything bigger than a squirrel with a .22 Flobert, and a long list of splendid photoplays courageous enough to abandon the sugar-coated “clinch” when “events leading up to the tragedy” have warranted a denouement tear-drenched and somber. e, - ~ - URTHER perusal of Mr. Johnston’s magazine of the trade, F America’s foremost journal of the motion picture industry, brings to light much of interest. For instance, Mr. Adolph Zukor, president of Paramount Famous Lasky—whose Eastern sales convention, incidentally, opens in the Carlton Hotel tomorrow—circulates an interesting chart among the shareholders ‘in his company which he entitles, “‘How the Studio Spends a Dollar to Make a Picture.’’ The dollar, it seems, is di- vided as follows: Actors’ salaries, 30 cents; supervision and general expenses, 19 cents; directors and cameramen, 18 cents; stories and scenarios, 13 cents; new sets, 12 cents; raw film stock, 5 cents; locations, 4 cents; costumes, 4 cents. Unless my isatherenties are as bad as I think they may be, that adds up not to “Magnolia,” but an even eight bits. Another chart in the Paramount report deals with the foreign gross rentals for 1927, exclusive of Canada and analyzed by languages. It is shown that 48.55 per cent of the total comes from English-speaking coun- tries. The Spanish countries are second with 15.37 per cent, and the others follow: German, 9.59 per cent; Portuguese, 6.79 per cent; French, 6.40 per cent; Italian, 3.56 per cent; Scandinavian, 3.51 per cent; Jap- anese, 3.09 per cent; Dutch, 1.55 per cent; Chinese, .80 per cent; Russian, .51 per cent, and Turkish, .19 per cent. It is the French 6.40 per cent of the foreign gross, reflected in reason- able ratio in the European dealings of all of the major American produc- ing companies, that has caused the film interests of the United States such concern that Will H. Hays has just terminated a protracted visit to the French capital calculated to determine what might be done about it. Mr. Johnston publishes the dispatch now quoted from his Paris (France, not Illinois) correspondent, L. C. Moen: “Although the visit of Will H. Hays has not as yet resulted in any modification of the French filmiaw,and although the commission has made no formal announcement, it was learned this week from thoroughly re- liable sources close to the commission itself that the body intrusted with the administration of the law had practically decided, before Mr. Hays’ arrival, to modify its provisions, for the current year only, to permit American companies to bring into France for this year 50, or perhaps 40, per cent of the number of films which they imported last year, entirely outside of the quota itself. “Then at the end of the film year the commission will review the efforts of the various American companies to encourage French production and will lay their plans for the following year. accordingly. “Visas are now being issued to French films, but are not yet available for foreign films, American among them. This will force a crisis shortly, as release dates must be met, although all negotiations with French com- panies to obtain visas through the acquisition of French films for Ameri- can release were dropped by the American producers when Mr. Hays sailed, pending the outcome of his visit.” It will be all right with me if you don’t ask me what all that means! easily HE present problem of the exhibitor of motion pictures, just as the BOYS WILL BE STUDIO JOKESTERS An old score has just been settled between Emil Jannings and Ernst Lubitsch as the star and director were working in the Lubitsch production, “The Patriot,” at the Paramount studio in Hollywood, Years ago, while Lubitsch was direct- ing “Passion” in Germany, he played a practical joke on Jannings which the latter has kept in mind ever since. It was, while Jannings, In the role of Louls XV, was impersonating the royal corpse, lying in state in a coffin, that Lubitsch whispered to his assistants and the entire company left the aet, leaving Jannings alone in the coffin. He gave a splendid performance of the dead Louis XV for quite a long time. according to Lubitsch, when he finally became suspicious and gazed around. When Lubitsch works hé consumes innumerable black cigars. He does not smoke them all; it is estimated that half meet their end by being furiously chewed up. Without HAls cigars, Lu- bitsch is like a locomotive without a safety valve. Today when the director began work the six cigars he carried in his pocket lasted only the first hour. Thereupon he searched for the box he always keeps nearby. It had disappeared, Frantic property men hunted for it. Lubitsch became more restless each moment, The box could not be found. Finally, the director sent a man to the studio restaurant’s cigar counter, where they kept a special supply of his favorite brand. The man returned empty- handed. “They're sold out. Somebody bought five boxes early this morning,"’ the man explained. Just as the situation began to re- semble a small earthquake Janninge put in a calm and belated appearance, greet- ing every one with a gracious smile. Behind him stood a man heavily laden with neatly wrapped bundles. Jannings stood before Lubitsch, still smiling. “With. my compliments, Ernst,’ d, Lubitsch opened the packages and found nine boxes of his favorite cigars. Work was resumed on the picture. Jannings still smiled. : Leatrice Joy in “The Blue Danube’—Rialto. ENGLAND NOT BACKWARD IN FILM MAKING Nenwpaneemuansenensetintinamienaiie “The English motion picture studlos are a complete revelation to me,” writes Monty Banks, whw recently completed his Pathe feature comedy series with “Flying Luck,” and then went to Lon- don to produce. “I must honestly confess that the British studios compare very favorably with those in Hollywood. I know from experience, for I have used a good many studios in California during my screen career. My new series is being made for British International Pictures, at their Elstree studios. And I believe this is the tip-top of them all over here in the isles. It is marvelous in its completeness. “Being a Californian, I naturally doff my hat to the climate of the sunkist State. The English climate is inferior for the taking of exteriors. But we are not worrying about sunlight. We carry our own sun arcs on location, and laugh at the weather man. The technical crew of our outfit is the last worc in efficiency. So I look for excellent photography all the way through to the fade-out. “We are in the midst of production on “Adam’s Apples,” which Rex Taylor, formerly of Pathe-DeMille, wrote for me.” BARRY MORE’S “LAMLET” IN MIGHTY BOWL An outdoor stage production of “Hamlet” by the greatest “Hamlet” of modern times is the treat in store for Californians, as a result of the an- nouncement, which has created wide interest in the amusement world, that through the courtesy of Joseph M. Schenck, president of United Artists Pictures, John Barrymore will appear in this most famous spoken role before the largest audience of his career. The same costumes and scenery with which Barrymore’s “Hamlet” was given in London, New York and other large cities have been brought to California for the production. Barrymore is now in New York, where he is making ar- rangements with electrical experts who handled the effects in the metropolis and abroad to take charge of the out- of-door presentation. “Hamlet” has never been produced al fresco on the very large scale of the Hollywood Bowl’s seating capacity. Ever since Barrymore’s memorable performance vf “iamlet” in London and New York and the star’s reentry into motion pictures, both the Hollywood Bowl Association and the University of California in Berkeley have repeatedly asked him to produce the Shakespearean drama on the West coast. In London, Barrymore financed and produced the lay himself, and he will \do the same in California. he regarded him auspiciously, | | | | “The Boss of Little Arcady,” ever } ated.

While Director Richard Wallace 1s directing scenes of “The Butter and Egg Man,” feautring Jack Mulhall, his assistant, Booth McCracken, is rehears- ing the stage play that is to be filmed as part of the picture. In the very successful legitimate stage production of “The Butter and Egg Man,” from which the picture was adapted, the stage play that figures in the story was all “off stage.” It was brought to the attention of the au- dience only through dialogue.

Nine of those now being released are permanent and the remaining number are occasional editions which will be is- sued only as.local news breaks war- rant. Others will be added. “A local news event in Philadelphia may mean nothing to the rest of the country but it certainly will attract the interest of the citizens of that city, and will attract business to the theater in which the news pictures of that event are screened,” said Mr. St. Louis doesn’t cause much of a ripple of excitement in Boston but it is a monster event to the heme people opening game of the Pacigc Coast Base- ball League isn’t guaranteed to cause a wave of interest throughout the South but it certainly do¢s attract at- tention in the West.” The permanent regional editions are | released twice a week On the same days | ate ‘The | ithat of “The as the national edition and are tached to the national edition regional edition is the first story in the reel, The nine permanent regional editions | - so far established are as follows: New England edition, printed at Bos- ton, includes Maine; Southern edition, printed at Atlanta, Includes Charlotte and Jacksonville; Southwestern edition, printed at Dallas, to include San An- tonio; Central edition, printed at Cin- cinnatil, includes Columbus; Midwest- ern edition, printed at Chicago, In- cludes Milwaukee; Golden Gate edl- tion, printed at San Francisco; Pacific edition printed at Los Angeles; Tristate edition printed at Philadelphia; Wol- verine edition printed at Detroit.

DIST ANCE NO LONGER BANS DISK MAKING Modern invention has achieved an- other scientific innovation which may bring about an entirly new method of phonograph record making, 1t was learned last week when Dolores Del Rio, the Mexican film star, made a rec- ord disk from a digtance of 3,500 miles, using the simple telephone process as mexuns of transmitting her voice into the master disk. The Columbia Phonograph laboratories in New York are said to have opened a trunk line to Los Angeles, connecting with Miss Del Rio’s home telephone. The star picked up the receiver and accompanied by an orchestra, sang “Ramona,” a new song dedicated to her picture of that name. recording it on the master Co.'s tories. it, recorded the voice of Miss Del Rio perfectly on their wax disk. This trial may soon result in revolu- tionizing the process of record-making and famous artists who sing and play for phonographic records will be en- abled to do so while they are on tour or from their homes in other parts of the country. PRODUCTION HEAD RAVES “I am convinced that the “The Pa- triot’ will be an outstanding road show, comparable to any of the big pictures of this classification that have gone before it.” Such was the announcement recently made by Jesse L. Lasky, vice-president of Paramount, in charge of production, concerning the spectacular drama of Russian court life now in production with Ernst Lubitsch as director and Emil Jannings as star. At the same time Mr. Lasky revealed that the picture will be presented under its original name as “The Patriot,” in- stead of using the title, “High Treason,” by which it has been designated for several weeks past. “The Patriot” is the name of the stage play from which the story is taken. “It is unquestionably Lubitsch’s greatest production,” says Mr Lasky. “It is without doubt Jannings’ greatest characterization.

Danube,” starring Leatrice Joy, which is the feature picture at the Rialto this week. It invades the widbiieharies regions of Austria’s historical river for the back- ground of a story which deals with the eternal triangle/in a new and refresh- ing manner. Marguerite, a_ village belle on the Danube, is loved, by Erich, a young nobleman. His rival is Ludwig. a hunchback. Before he is able to marry her he ts ordered to join the colors. He sends word to Marguerite by the hunchback to meet him at the Station so that they might be married by the army chaplain. But the hunch- back withholds the message and poi- sons Marguerite’s mind against Erich and on the very day when the young nobleman returns to the Danube, Lud- wig weds Marguerite. The three meet in dramatic circumstances. For the first time in her career Lea- trice Joy portrays a foreign type, while her leading man, Nils Asther, has the part of the son of nobility. Others con- spicuous in the cast include Joseph Schildkraut, Seena Owen, May Rob- son, Albert Gran and Frank Reicher.

Such organizations as the General Federation of Women's Clubs, the Na- tional Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution, the National Con- gress of Parents and Teachers, and the United States Daughters of 1812 are quite as active as the National Woman’s Party and the National League of Wom- en Voters in their effort to secure the maximum number of women to vote at the next election. While all these or- ganizations are nonpartisan, they have the welfare of women and children as one of their primary motives in taking part in the body politic. The General Federation of Women’s Club is sponsoring a prize of $1,000 to the winner of a nationwide contest for '@ high schoo! students’ essay on “Why Should I Vote?” This contest was sug- gested by Mrs. John D. Sherman, presi- dent of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs, at a recent meeting of the National Civic Association and John Hays Hammond offered the prize. Mrs. William R.

The questions selected to be answered are typical] of hundreds which come to me in the mail, and I have chosen them because of the general in- terest in them indicated by their fre- quent repetition. TAKING OUT PARTNER'S NO TRUMP. Many a time have [I answered “No” to the absurd but oft-repeated ques- tion: “Should you always take out your partner’s No Trump?” But the ques- tion I am answering today is one asked by a more intelligent type of correspon- dent and reiates to a situation in which there might be legitimate room for doubt. QUESTION: Score love-all, (South) one No Trump, what should North say, above hand? ANSWER: North should pass. The Ssingletcn Heart would suggest a “res- cue” to some players; but no rescue is needed and any possibie bid would be deceptive. Two Diamonds or Clubs (being Minors) would mean a bust; three of either would mean strength (which is present); but it also would mean at least five and probably six Or more cards of the suit, whereas North’s Minors heve only four. As to the need for a rescue: Dealer West pass; holding the Fout is most improbable, with has bid No Trump with the Hearts un- stopped. A worthless singleton in the hand of a partner of a No Trumper 1s not the menace that it is in the hand of the player who is considering whether or not to bid No Trump originally. ANSWERING THE INFORMATORY DOUBLE, Six questions and answers pretty well cover all the perplexities under this head that my correspondence has un- covered. The three hands shown be- low are held by East, who 1s called upon to answer an informatory double made by West. In each hand West doubles (1) South’s one Spade, (2) South’s one No Trump and North passes; so there are two separate ques- tions for each hand. . c aX k K VOXKK SEEN SHAK @KLKK AGAX KKK SAXKK MEX PIX ANSWER (1): Hand A. South one Spade, West double; East should bid two Hearts. A four-card Major is al- ways a better answer than a four-card Minor to an informatory double, ANSWER (2): Hand A. South one No Trump, West double: East should bid two Hearts or make a “Business Pass.” The pass probably would duce a big penalty, but the Heart bid is safer and sounder. ANSWER (3): Hand B. South one West double: East should bid two Hearts, ha even reason than in Answer (1). Spades headed by Ten preclude any | serious danger from that suit; and it | so much | strength fn the North hand, that South | 4 ANSWER (4): Hand B. South one No Trump, West double: East should bid two Hearts if it is the rubber game, pass if any other game. The strength of East’s hand makes a large penalty so probable that a Bysiness Pass would be better than two Hearts, except on the rubber game (which car- ries a bonus of 250) where a Heart bid and a practically sure game should be the selection. ANSWER (5): Hand C. South one Spade, West double: East should bid two Hearts, selecting a weak four-card Major in preference even to a strong five-card Minor, ANSWER (6): Hand C, South one No Trump, West double: East should bid two Hearts. Same reasoning as in | Answer (5). ' | THE INFORMATORY DOUBLE. | Many players who understand the _informatory double and how to answer it are nonplused when it ts followed by a redouble. Should they answer the double just the same, or does the redouble relieve them of responsibility? We are supposing that Dealer (South) bids one No Trump, West doubles and North redoubles. If these declarations have all been sound, it needs all] the high cards in the pack to justify them and East must be like a prophet in his own country—without honor (or nearly so). Following are three typi- cal holdings such as would be found in the East hand after a No Trump bid, a double and a redouble; and below them will be. found East’s proper declaration, A B € @XXX = XXK KAHN OXXX MANX AKX @XXX XXX AK ANSWER A. East should pass. The pass under such circumstances does not show satisfaction with the re- double; that is Impossible because thee cen not be more than three strong hands. East has no outstanding suit which makes it probable that his selec- tion would turn out better than one which would be made by West on the basis of West's cards; even the Club suit, although a card longer than the others and a shade stronger, does not hold out such probability and East should pass. ANSWER B. Here the Club sult, ale though no longer than in A, is decided- ly stronger and East should bid two Clubs, ANSWER C: East should bid two Spades without any hesitation; any five-card suit, especially a Major, should be bid under the circumstances rather than leave the selection to West, and it is lucky for East and West that East has such a sult.

Will Watch Public Interest. According to Judge Sykes, who de- clares he always has the interest of the listener at heart, the very purpose of the radio act and its amendment of this year “is to give the receiving public good radio reception.” In order to co this, he says, the commission must de- cide “what broadcasting stations are rendering programs in the interest and for the benefit of the general receiving public. The commission can not inter- fere with the freedom of speech, neither has it any right of censorship, but it does judge the character and merits of the programs which are being ren- dered.” Judge Sykes says that in his opinion the Radio Commission, speaking gener- ally, has received the hearty coopera- tion both from the broadcasters and the receiving public. “Almost as soon as we organized,” he says, “we made a number of drastic changes and the broadcasters, with a very few excep- tions, acquiesced in them with a good grace.” He believes that this attitude an secured to broadcast the diva inasmuch as the Metropolitan people are | under strict injunction not to sing over the radio, Likewise, Mr, noticed that Mme.

RADIO NEWS NOTES “While under the new radio law,” Federal Radio Commissioner O. H, Cald- well says, “it was felt that borrowing of unused power could be carried on be- tween zones, it now becomes apparent that there will be indeed little unused time, power or channels to be drawn on by other zones and that the permane.it allotment under the equitable disiri- bution clause will shortly be about the extent of any State’s working quota.” W. K. Henderson, who has ba2n heard from Station KWKH at Shreveport so widely, has spent considerably over @300,000 on his station. He advertises nothing. He is simply giving entertain- ments. He is a man of means, Senator Edwin S. Broussard (Democrat), Louis- jana reports. “I hope you all stood up. We did!” Walter Damrosch, leader of the New York Symphony Crchestra, said to the radio audience after playing ‘The Star- Spangled Banner.” “A national station can not possibly give national service, but it can produce interference,” .

A new and tmproved socket-power re- ceiver to be known as the RCA Radiola 18, has just been announced by J, L. Ray, general sales manager of the Radio Corporation of America, to supersede Radiola 17. “Entirely self-contained and = ex- tremely compact, Radiola 18 requires no batteries or external radio power units, but plugs directly into the nearest A-C eleetric light socket or outlet for its inexhaustible supply of uniform power. With simplified precision tuning, sub- stantial volume and realism of tone and balanced sensitivity and selec- tivity, Radiola 18 has ail the basic fea- tures which have made its predecessor an outstanding success, while selling at an even lower price,” declared Mr. Ray in his announcement, “In addition, the laboratory tech- nicians of the Radio Corporation of America and its associated companies have further improved selectivity so that sharper tuning is provided with the new receiver. An improved form of RCA tuned radio-frequency circuit 1s emploved, comprising three siages of radio-frequency amplification, detector aud two stages of audio-frequency amplification, Four A-C_ radiotrons UX-226, one UY-227 and a power am- plifier radiotron U2i-171-A are employ- ed, aS well as a rectifying radiotron UX-280 for supplying plate voltages.” Poor Rikisha Pullers Flock to Missions Shanghai, April 28 (A.P.).—Civil war, while driving thousands of foreign mis- sionaries from their work in China, has civused one tinission enterprise in Shanghai to flourish This ts the Shanghai Mission to Rikisha Men, which, according to its recently pub- lished annual report, ministered to the needs, physical and spiritual, of 216,- 700 ccolies, mostiy rikisha pullers, during 1927.

Owing to the short distance betwern them, according to advices reaching the United States, this absorption by the metal towers was a very serious one, A further influence to loss of was the circumstance that wave length of the towers lay in the neighborhood of the station’s wave length. Also, the capacity of the steel towers to ground was high, especially by reason of the transformer station built under the western tower.

The wooden towers had to be builton the same founcations upon which the steel towers had stood, the height of the wooden towers being reduced to 246 feet to allow for the greater surface ex- posed to wind pressure, whereas the old towers had stood about 328 feet high.

Italian Towns Race For Growth Record Naples, April 28 (A.P.).—The inhabi- tants of the south of Italy have one trait in common with the inhabitants of not a few towns in the United States ——they are great boosters for the home town, its products and its renown. And, moreover, they are not finicky about a little jovial cxasgeration. Thus the census authorities have de- tected a deep-laid scteme on the part of certain communities to swell their population figures for the coming year. The latter part of December these towns and villages reported no births, deaths or marriages tc the central sta- tistical institute. But their returns for all three events were whoppers in January. The answer is that they are all out for the 1928 growth record. Faces of Living Adorn Sculpture of Building London, April 28 (A.P.).—¥Faces of liv- ing men are carved in stone on the new million pound building of the Imperiat Chemical Industries nearing completion at Westminster. One of the faces is that of the head of the concern, Sir Alfred Mond. All the other carvings are said to be excel- lent likenesses of many men prominent in the chemical world. The sculpture around the building also includes fig- ures of peacocks, which are said to be there as a symbol of incorruptibility, following the ancient tradition that the flesh of the peaceck is incorruptibie.

Edward V. Rickenbacker, comes to Washington to- ’ day. Capt. Rickenbacker, who is “Eddie” or “Rick” to veterans of the movwr world, is the possessor of a personal history that is not to be set down as “Just another one of those romances of the automobile field.” His career Nias been checkered, not in the sense that it has been marked by the con- ventional ups and downs, but rather | because it has been marked by only ups of a truly astonishing variety. Long before he became the greatest ace of the American flying forces dur- | _ ing the World War, “Rick’” began his . travels up the highway that leads to greatness. He built the highway as he went along.. That is why he makes a story. | Began Early in Auto Era, The story begins, surprising as it may strike many, back in the dim, dreary qawn of the motor car, when the in- ternal combustion engine was just beginning to prove to the jeering mob that “get a horse,” after all, was a silly, stupid suggestion. In the intervening years “Rick has been prominent in »Meny fields, in addition to his war serv- ice. Today he counts his position as assistant general sales manager of the Cadillac Motor Car Co. as his “job,” but, in addition, he is chairman of the contest board gf the American Automo- bile Association, the body in charge of automobile racing in the United States, and, further, he owns the controlling interest in and is president of the In- dianapolis Motor Speedway, the great outdoor laboratory of the automotive * ‘industry. It was back in 1902 that “Rick” al- ed himself with the industry in whose farthest reaches he is known, honored, acmired and affectionately regarded by every one today. Frayer-Miller Motor Car Co., one of the pioneers in the manufacture of wir-cooled automobiles. Four years Jater he was on the pay roll of the Firestone-Columbus comipany as an en- gine expert, and in 1908, when produc- tion had been raised to a sufficiently high level he toured the country, ac- quainting local dealers, their service staffs and the public generally with one he | Fei ad the period’s greatest mysteries, litomobile engine. Became Speedway Star. ace of aces was a prominent figure in motor car racing. His particular in- terest In the field was related to its capacity to test new engineering fea- tures, His first active participation in racing was in 1906, when he drove the Frayer-Miller entry in the famous Van- derbilt cup race. Until 1913 “Rick’s” racing activities did not affect his amateur standing. At that time, however, he became a professional driver because of the op- portunity it offered for the development of new car features. Competing against such stars as Barney Oldfield, Bob Bur- man, Ralph Mulford, DePalma and oth- ers, Rickenbacker quickly established He continued to make his name famous in racing circies until 1917, when the United States declared war on Ger- many. In May of that year “Rick” volunteered for service, and his assign- ment was that of chauffeur of Gen. Pershing’s car. But, “Rick’’ did not get much of a Chance to achieve fame as the chauf- feur of the Pershing car. Three weeks after his arrival in France, he was trans- ferred to the service where he was destined to achieve his greatest fame. the light of his skill and scientic know- ledge, in a very short time and his |first assignment was in charge of the | famous Issodon field. | From Issodon, he went to the front, as commander of the brilliant first com- bat squadron. Serving in the most | spectacular American service, outdoing |all others, the name of Rickenbacker became world famous. Was Student of Others. ' . his book “Airmen and Aircraft,”’ | Maj. Henry H. Arnold, declares that | “Rick's” ris¢ was spectacular “but came las a result of careful study and taking ;} advantage of the experience of others.” | “His daring and skill in handling a | plane and its guns are well shown in ; the fight in which his first enemy plane | was brought down,” writes Maj. Arnold. “Accompanying another pilot, more ex- perienced than himself, Rick followed the other piane, watching every move. Although realizing that there must be an enemy plane somewhere near when they climbed up toward the sun, he could not see it. Soon the ‘Boche’ plane was in sight. Both made a dive for it, ,; but Rick with his engine wide open, | soon wes in the lead. The Boche pilot dove his plane too, but Rick gained upon it, and had his sights trained upon tracer bullets streaking into the tail. ly and watched the stream of fire rise up to the pilot’s seat. The Pfalz plane swerved from its course, indicating that the rudder was not being directed by human hand.

In 1920, Rickenbacker started devel- opment of the motor car that bore his | iname, ana remained active in this work | until 1926, when he resigned. Throughout this interval the future Barly this year he was appointed as- Sistant general sales manager of the Cadillac Motor var Co., specializing in promotion of the La Sale. Ii isin this capacity that he comes to Washington today, as part of a schedule which has taken him all over the country.

HIGHER VOLATILITY SHOWN IN GASOLINE Bureau of Mine Tests Indicate | Engine Efficiency and Power Improvement in Fuel During Winter. Higher volatility was apparent in the Gasoline sold during the last winter, ac- cording to the Bureau of Mines, which tested specimens of motor fuel in a dozen cities, including Washington. The bureau’s experiments showed that the gasoline examined vaporized at a temperature of from 2 to 5 degrees below that of the gasoline similarly tested during the previous winter. On the basis of its findings the bureau ex- pressed the opinion that the petroleum industry apparently had returned to the practice of making a distinction be- tween winter and summer gasoline. In the past this practice was rather general, according to bureau experts. the last two years, however, it was stated, the distinction between fuels in- tended for use in cold and warm weather was relatively small. In addi- tion to showing a reversion to the prac- tice of marketing gasoline for use at high and low atmospheric tempera- tures, a study of the samples also indl- cated that a more standardized product is being offered to motorists. Semi- annual testings of gasoline marketed throughout the United States have been made by the Bureau of Mines for the last eight and one-half years. When to Change Piston Rings. When the efficiency of the engine starts to drop it is possible that the piston rings need to be changed. Other causes may be—warped or burned valves. worn pistons and cylinders, old spark plugs worn cr airty ignition units. SPARK PLUG OF RIGHT TYPE MOTOR FACTOR oo a» Ho Hinges on Ignition in Chamber. That the use of a proper type of spark plug is an important factor in efficient motor operation is pointed out by H Rabezzana, research engineer. “When a plug is too short it does not bring the firing points far enough into the combustion chamber,” he declared. “Good ignition under this condition is impossible. The motor is bound to ve sluggish and inefficient. “A plug that is too long extends too far into the firing chamber. This will cause the lower end of the plug to be- come overheated, resulting in igniting the fugl too early. “The correct length of plug fits so thet the bottom of the spark plug shell is just flush with the inside wall of the cylinder head end the spark gap extends beyond into the combustion chamber. “To get maximum power and eff!- clency from an engine it ts absolutely necessary that the proper type spark plug be used, as recommended by the manufacturer's spark plug chart.” Oil Lightness Varies. Motorists who will go touring this spring should remember the oft- reiterated fact that the oils they buy along the highway are not necessarily the medium, light or heavy varieties they are accustomed to buying merely because the designations are the same. The terms are general and their mean- ing in one instance may be leagues away from it in another. It is well to remember this fact.

One of the greatest problems, and one which rarely is considered, is that | of protecting the oil while it 1s In stor- | age, protecting it from the most serious menace of all—fire. As pointed out by C. F. Tallman, in the New York Times, the educative value of a great catastrophe has lately been illustrated in California, where, during April, 1926, a series caused by lightning destroyed millions of barrels of oil in storage. Besides costing several human lives, entailed a loss of $20,000,000 worth of property. The economic disaster, Mr. Taiman points out, was the worst In the history of the State since the San Francisco earthquake and fire in 1906. Insurance Not Cheaper. of fires | ' carburetor these fires | The oil operators had previously con- sidered it cheaper to insure against fire than to undertake far-reaching im- provements in the matter of lightning protection, but the 1926 disaster re- sulted in an immediate large advance in insurance rates and at the same time focused attention upon the ex- treme vulnerability of the petroleum industry to lightning damage as com- pared with other great industries. Hence €ince their recent costly experience the California oil companies have not only carried on elaborate studies of Iight- ning, but have also erected around their storage plants protective systems probably surpassing in magnitude any to be found elsewhere in the world. The gravity of the lightning hazard in the California oil fields is explained by the concentration of oil in enor- mous storage reservoirs, sunk in the ground, in place of the steel or wooden tanks of relatively moderate size used in other parts of the country. Most of the reservoirs built in recent years are lined with concrete. They vary in size from a‘circular container 300 feet in diame‘*er holding 220,000 barrels to a huge oval lake, 500 by 1,425 feet, with @ capacity of 4,000,000 barrels. The depth of oil in the largest reservoirs, when full, is more than 40 feet. The reservoirs are roofed over to keep out the sun and check evaporation. The roofs sre generally of wood, supported on wooden posits and covered with as- phalt-saturated felt roofing com- pounds, heid in place by metal nailing strips and nails. Struck by Lightning. Fires..are caused in some cases by | direct lightning strokes, but often by sparks due to the voltages that prevail during thunder- storms. Inflammable and _ explosive mixtures of oil vapors and air accumu- late between the roof and the surface of the oil. These are readily ignited by sparks between conducting parts al- most in contact, or making poor con- tact, such as wires, nails or wet spots on the wooden roof. To take care of both hazards com- pletely, F. W. Peek, jr., of the General flectric Co., has recommended the use of all-metal tanks, the metal of which must be sufficiently thick to provide ample conduction of currents from di- rect strokes and in good contact at all po'nts to prevent sparking. Where the storage unit is very large and it is not practicable to have it of metal, Mr. Peek recomiiends the use of conduct- ins poles or towers as lightning-rods to receive the direct strokes, in tion with a well-bonded metal roof to prevent internally induced voltages. As an alternative to a solid metal roof, should the latter not be feasible, he ecdvocates the use of a wire net or cage over the reservoir. The suggestions of this @xpert have influenced the design of the California installations, but they also include a number of features de- veloped independently. c te induced Use Noninflammable Gas. . One means adopted to minimize the GCanger arising from sparks is to fill the space above the oil with a non- inflammable gas. This is said to be necessary only where the oil in stor- age is of relatively high gravity and large gasoline content, and accordingly twelve large reservoirs for storing such oll with a total capacity of 11,250,000 barrels, have been provided with inert gas systems, which supply fine gas to the vapor space in lieu of air and thus keep the oxygen content of the vapors below 6 per cent. The gas is taken from the breechings of nearby refinery hoilers, cooled, scrubbed and pumped io a breather vault near the reservoirs, whence it is piped to the vapor space. Gas samples are taken from the reser- voilrs at regular intervals and tested for inflammability. Recently several large reservoirs have been equipped with floating roofs, which eliminate the vapor space and also reduce evaporation losses. As @ means of protection against di- rect strokes the companies have placed near their reservoirs gigantic lightning rods of steel lattice construction, re- sembling radio towers. They vary in height from 75 to 200 feet and usually terminate above in a piece of pipe with pointed tip. The locations and heights of these towers are based upon numer- ous experiments with models, including those carried out by Peek at Pittsfield, Mass., and by Dice and others at the high-voltage laboratory of the Califor- nia Institute of Technology. Radius of Protection. definite areas are fully protected around a well-grounded lightning rod, the ra- dius of protection depending upon the height of the rod and the height of the discharging cloud. The rule adopted in some cf the California installations is that no portion of the area to be pro- tected must be more than two and’one- half times a tower height away from the tower. In order to avoid, as far as pos- sible, any danger from “side flashes” accompanying lightning strokes, the towers are erected at some distance from the reservoir they are designed to protect. In order to prevent sparking from in- duced discharges, most reservoirs are now surmounted by wire networks. A eystem ceveloped by Dr. E. R. Schaeffer has been adopted by three Pacific Coast companies and placed over 32 reservoirs, with a total casacity of 26,250,000 bar- rels, besides a number of steel tanks. In this system the wires are spaced 4 feet apart and are placed from 6 to 12 feet above the roof.

According to bureau's the report, there were more than 23,000,000 motor | vehicles registered in 1927, with the ex- act figure standing at 23,127,315. Of this number 20,230,429 were passenger vehicles, and the remaining 2,896,886 were trucks and road tractors, This registration, the bureau shows, repre- sents an increase of 1,125,922 vehicles, or 5 per cent more than in the previous year. States with a registration increase of 10 per cent or more are North Car- olina, South Carolina, Utah and Ari- vona. States with a numerical increase of over 50,000 are New York, California, Ohio, Illinois, Texas and New Jersey. As in other récent years, motor. ve- hicle registration receipts constituted a substantial contribution to funds for road construction, The total receipts from registration fees and _ licenses amounted to 301,061,132. These funds were allocated ws follows: Collection and administration, $14,876,410; State highways, $189,985,289; local roads, $53,577,893; payments on State county road bonds, $38,087,598, and for miscellaneous purposes, $4,533,942.

The small engine will be | usable, he declared, because the super- | charger pressure will take care of the higher velocity and distribution of the |\fuel charge at peak engine speeds, The present car design, according to | Mr. Schwirtzer, results in penalizing 80 per cent of all passenger car owners by 'giving them excess weight and fuel con- isumption during the 90 per cent of the | time when they are driving at less than | 35 miles an hour. More specifically, he pointed out that about 350 pounds of jengine weight and from 6 to 10 inches |\of wheelbase are added to cars to give |performance which is used perhaps 20 'per cent of the total driving time. He said further that while testing a car equipped with a supercharger it was delightful to drive it at 35 to 60 miles per hour and that it accelerated past other cars with ease. He believes the supercharger is the next logical de- velopment in increasing the power out- put per cubic inch of piston displace- ment, and that its application will lead to a successful, flexible and economical two-cylinder engine that will be suite able for automotive use. David Gregg, of the A. C, Spark Plug Co., told in another paper at the same meeting of tests made with a car equipped .with a supercharged engine and a car of the same model which had & high-compression engine and used ethyl gasoline. The performance of the former was very much superior to that of the latter, he asserted. Starting and accelerating in second gear provided a getaway that left the other cars far be- hind; the car ran smoothly in high gear at 10 miles an hour, and the engine- did not labor at any speed up to the maxi- mum. Commenting on the subject, Pred Duesenberg, builder of racing cars, said he had supervised experimental work on supercharged stock cars and. believed that, with an efficient engine and su- percharger, the average car ought to de- velop about 25 per cent more power, W. G. Wall, president of the society, described some research work on a supercharged passenger-car engine and said the increase in power at 3,000 revo- lutions per minute was from 18 to 20 per cent, When to Drain Gas Tank, With the arrival of warm weather the gas tank should be drained and the line to the vacuum tank and carburetor should be blown clear. Then the crank- case should be drained, flushed and fe- filled with the proper summer grade of oil. The rear axle and transmission i grease should be changed at the game time. a, TS SEDANS $1195 to $1995 Se eal ee BUICK will serve you Better and save you More!

ag “a - ve TOURING PLEASURE DEPENDS ON MOTOR : { Digest of Important State Laws EFFIIENCY N ROM Driver Should Have Principal Parts Checked to Insure Good Performance. THOROUGH INSPECTION RECOMMENDED BY A.A. A. Association Urges Tourists to Have Experts Test Chief Auto Units. A motor tour can be just as pleasant | as the degree of efficient performance shown by the car. This point is made im a statement from national head- quarters of the American Automobile Association, which will serve a large portion of the 44,000,000 motorists who will seek enjoyment this summer on! the open road. Since there is a close relationship be- tween-.the pleasure of the tour and the condition of the car, it is pointed out, every prospective tourist should see the wisdom of having his car performing well before the trip begins. The car owner’s attention is called to the necessity for checking his auto- mobile thoroughly. An exhaustive Overhaul is not necessary, il but rather one should pay careful heed to the principal details which will in- sure satisfactory performance and which call for ordinarily good car care. Parts to Be Inspected. Battery, generator, distributor, spark plugs, valves, carburetor, fuel feed sys- tem, clutch, transmission, crankcase lubricant, oil filter, steering mechanism, brakes, tires, cooling sys- tem and wheel bearings are the units chiefly recommended by the A. A. A. emergency road service experts for at- | tention on the eve of the tour, marizing the probable services each will need, the statement says: , “Battery — Remove corrosion from terminals and inspect connections to see that they have not been eaten by the acid. Replace suspected connections. Coat terminals with vaseline or grease. Fill cells to recommended level with distilled water. “Generator—If device is not matically controlled as to output, have charging rate reduced for the tour. It diminishes the load on the generator, Sum- while turning on the Hghts serves no | other purpose than to keep the battery from becoming overcharged, which is not so likely as generally believed. Clean Distributor Points, "Distributor—Clean and adjust break- er points. Apply a thin film of grease to the cam. “Spark plugs—Clean and check points | . Replace- | ment, if the plugs have seen a year’s | for condition and clearance. service, is generalty advisable. Valves—It will pay to have the valves ground, if this has not been done | for 7,500 miles, regardless of the gaso- line one uses. Valves must seat proper- ly for efficient engine performance. For the tour it is not wise to adjust them “too closely. This means quick valve sh 3 iY & van Pe deterioration and poor performance. Look sharply for burned exhaust valves during the grinding process. “Carburetor—Clean strainer at bottom thoroughly. If mixture is suspected of excessive richness, have it adjusted by an expert. Feed System Inspection. “Fuel feed system—Drain traps at bottom of main gasoline tank and vac- uum tank. Blow out the feed lines. “Clutch—If the release bearing is not the self-lubricating type, take up one turn on the grease cup, the commonly used substitute. Be careful not to turn down the cup so far as to get grease on the plates. Slipping of the clutch is sure to follow. “Transmission and differential—Drain and flush case and housing and fill up with fresh lubricant. “Crank case—Drain out old oil, flush with light oil and refill with the normal —not heavy—lubricant, unless the car is accustomed to that grade. Oil Filter Units. “Oll filter—Inspect the cartridge or straining unit. If it has seen. 10,000 miles of service and is the noncleanable | type, buy a new one. “Steering—Check for wear. looseness or binding, and lubricate thoroughly. Hours at a wheel that works hard are exceptionally fatiguing and dangerous. “Brakes—Check for wear on linings and positiveness of equalization. Strange toads and high speeds call for perfect brakes. “Tires—Don't tempt fate with tires that are badly worn. Wear out the old ones in day to day service, not on the tour. Higher speeds call for higher tire pressures. From three to five pounds over the normal is essential.” Wiring Easily Wears Out. The wiring of a car or truck “wears out,” although the wear can not be seen. If the insulation is not perfect expensive results usually follow, such as increased gas and oil consumption, Uneven engine operation, loss of power and decreased efficiency from the automobile as a unit of transporation.

All Operators All Operators Springtime Lures Millions Of Motorists Out in Open ‘Highways Have Been Widely Improved, and More At- tractions Added on Almost Any Tour Owners May Map Out for This Year. Once again glowing sunshine and | budding things, gentle breezes and the pleasant fragrances of the countryside, combined with fine, broad highways anc. eager motor cars, all are conspiring to lure the motorist away from his | daily tasks, away from the routine of | icity traffic, into the very heart of a | warmly awakened Nature. The season has arrived when the |motor-car owner, having tasted once more the joys of touring through the experiment of brief jaunts into the open regions near at hand, begins to consult his maps and seriously to dis- cuss with the family or friends places to go during the months to come. | This is a time of pleasant planning. |It is a period when motorists take re- newed interest in their cars and in their capabilities, 4nd find themselves | wondering what the family automobile ‘oughly awheel | needs in the way of mechanical atten- | tion to make it perfectly fit for a tour of 100 or 1,000 miles, or of a day ora month or two. First the calender gives warning that the season of unrest is approaching for America’s motoring millions. Then, hesitatingly at first, come days which revive memories of tree-flanked roads winding into cool hills, of dimpling lakes sparkling in the freshness of a morning sun, of fertile farm lands stretching their new-turned | far into the distance. Such days bring 'with them a new warmth, a new view- |point and an intense desire to revel in (all outdoors. Urge to Go Insistent. | Few motor-car owners, indeed, now find themselves free of the insistent /urge to pack up and go—go anywhere, ‘any place where the roads are smooth, 'where a thousand trees are forgetting | their gauntness and preening them- selves in the glory of “garments green,” where the robin and his host of spring- time cohorts are chirping furiously in a | veritable ecstasy of joy over living and | being. | Motor clubs throughout. the country have anticipated all this, and, in con- sequence, have prepared themselves for the greatest, the most active touring season in the entire history of the auto- | mobile. | All official observers in every section of the Nation are agreed that in the period between now and the end of October more persons will take to the open road for touring trips, short or long, than in any other corresponding period. There is ample reason for this. It is not just accident; it is not just be- cause, since 1927 was a record breaker on its own account, 1928 must neces- sarily follow in its footsteps. No; there are definite reasons for 3t. yi are some of them, briefly out- lined: Joys of Outdoor Vacation. The joys of a motorized vacation outing, whether it be of one day's du- ration, the conventional two weeks or a luxurious three months, have become a part of the American consciousness. With each passing year acceptance of it has become increasingly universal. Highways throughout the United States have been improved. Approxi- ' furrows | | roundings, | i'one into mately 30,000 miles more of paved roads will be available to motorists this year than was the case in 1927, Motor-car betterments, making the vehicle completely reliable if given a reasonable measure of attention, will bring to the highway thousands of per- sons who heretofore confined their driving to regions close to home. Improved facilities for guidance such as are offered by motor clubs and motorists’ organizations everywhere make touring more attractive. These are but a few of the reasons why 1928 unquestionably will set a new mark for tourist yolume. They are the more important ones; there are etl! others which dovetail to add strength to the conviction, so widely held, that this year America will be more thor- than ever before. why should not this be 80? Have not thousands of ardent motor- ists discovered for themselves” the unique pleasures of a tour by automo- bile? It matters little whether one contem- plates a trip short or long, the joys are quite the same in substance. The one permits of a night’s rest under one’s own roof tree after a day amid the familiar rambling roads of the neighboring districts; the other brings new scenes and new vistas and among strange and educative sur- And Millions Awaited Season. All through the winter, America’s millions of car owners have been wait- ing for just this season. They have anticipated their every move, have mentally toyed with the alluring thought that “in just a little while now” the memories of last year’s motor- ing joys will be transformed into ac- tualities of the most golden hue. At last the time has come! With the early blossoms, with the glorious revivification of Nature in her every form, there has come to American motordom an overwhelming, an over- powering urge that can not and wil! | not be withstood. Already the gigantic tide of an America in quest of the swinging highway and all it portends its organizing itself and the advance guard already may be seen pushing out the spirit of adventure strong in its veins. } Service stations are filling up, and | every day additional motorists are bringing their cars in for the work needed. to make them zestful com. panions during the active days which are so close at hand. Experienced Owners Pian. Experienced owners are driving thelr cars appraisingly these days, some to plan a schedule of work to be done upon them, and some to decide upon the type of new car in which they will invest. All is in a happy ferment, but, paradoxically, it is a chaos in which definite order is discernible. From this seething mass there wil) be evolved a swarming army of motor tourists which will reach into the far places. It will bring with it new ideas and new viewpoints. It will cement the bonds of fellowship which link State with State to form “one perfect Union.” It will bring health and joy and prosperity in its spreading wake. (Copyright, 1928.)

Ae eee em tm em CAR MOVEMENT SPEEDED ee ee Modern storage garages, designed to shelter many cars, must be so designed as to permit movement of cars with rapidity that is somewhat comparable to the greater speed with which auto- mobiles generally travel. As compared with the older garage, the latest struc- ture must permit either higher speed movement of the individual car, or movement of a greater number of cars at the same speed. These points were made in a recent address by Gicnn 8S. Whitman, Boston garage expert, before the New England section of the Society of Automotive Engineers. Two general methods of vertical movement of cars are by elevators and ramps, he pointed out. One garage in Chicago, built into the back corner of an office building, has elevators de- signed to travel at a speed of 600 feet per minute, which serve 23 floors of a capacity of 25 cars each. Development of ramps has been prominent in the last decade, Mr. Whitman declared, adding that there are interior and ex- terior circular ramps, two-way-traffic straight ramps, and the type of garage construction having floor levels on one side, intermediate of the opposite floor levels, with connecting ramps of small gradient. Basic considerations affecting the de- sign of a garage are location, nature of patronage, capacity and method of ver- tical movement. The speaker favored location on a main thoroughfare. The stability of present concrete and steel buildings is estimated at 40 years, and it is possible that these will be- come out of date and less valuable through obsolescence rather’ than through depreciation. Cars are becom- ing shorter, lower, wider and lighter and have a shorter turning radius. These trends may change the require- ments of ceiling height, column spac- ing, elevator capacity and the like. A careful survey of modern garages shows an allotment of 250 square feet. for each car stall, whereas a car actually occples only 100 square feet. The total investment in garages in ‘{in-town Boston is almost $20,000,000, according to the speaker, and for the entire United States the investment SUNDAY. AvRIL or i ee a 8 ee = ne TOSS. THOSE UNSEEN HILLS, Experienced motorists may well con- sider the fact that in the course of their daily driving they climb many unseen hills. While Smith’s engine its equal to al- most any hill-climbing task, neverthe- less it is true of any engine, no matter how powerful It is, that a hill is an ob- stacle and just one of the things that occasion it to wear out. Hill climbing means extra work for the engine, but it isn’t always so much the hills that the driver sees, and which he can prepare for, but the ones which he forces his car over without even realizing their presence, When I broached this subject, Smith accused me of making a mountain out of a molehill and said that if there were any hills for his car to go over he certainly would know them. I proved that he was not so accurate in this ob- servationg ten minutes later when we were out on the street on our way home. Smith picked up a group of friends at the corner, thereby materially increas- ing the engine’s burden. But I noticed that he made no allowances for this in the way he started and operated the car. Rear Wheel Slippage. “Now you're going over one of those unseen hills,” I reminded him when he let in the clutch and started struggling for the sort of acceleration which he might well have anticipated had only the two of us been in the car. “Another one of the unseen hills is rear wheel slippage, which you perhaps noticed, vaguely, at that last crossing where you didn’t get away as quickly as you had hoped. You know that when you climb up a rough hill and one or the other of the rear wheels starts bouncing that you lose power through loss of traction. The sameé thing appliesv *nyouaretryingto get away in traffic. Conditions are almost identical with those when you aré climbing hills when the rear wheels are bouncing over the rough spots.” As we approached the open road we passed a chap who had stopped because his brakes were burning. modern garages amounts to approxi- mately $2,000,000,000. Figures for 1926 show that the motoring public of the United States and Canada paid for op- eration and maintenance an aggregate of $4,815,000,000, as compared with a retail value of approximately 83,800,- | 000,000 paid for cars and trucks sold in in| the two countries. | JOHN SMITH and HIS CAR Being the Experiences of a Typical Motorist By FREDERICK C., RUSSELL “There’s another driver who went up a hill without knowing it,” I observed. “When you climb a hill you know there are forces which tend to hold the car back. Whether you know it or not when you are driving along the level, or even downhill, and the brakes are dragging you are forcing the engine to work against similar forces. That chap there is havi just as much trouble, so far as the engine goes, as though he were struggling up a hill in high gear. Effect of Lubrication. Smith began to get the idea and soon was telling me about one cold day he remembers when lubrication itself acted as one of these unseen hills, holding back the car to such an extent that he thought he was driving with the emer- gency brake set. Lubrication, I re- minded him, can act as one of these un- seen hills, even in very hot weather, as would be the case if the lubricant was insufficient or if it was of too light a grade for the work which the engine or any of the chassis bearings were called upon to do. And then there are the tires. Under- inflation is causing millions of automo- biles to run uphill all the time. Another point which I tried to im- press upon Smith, and which I have had occasion to mention to him before in other connections, is the matter of getting or car up to what is known as its rollifig speed. Those who want to make a really good impression on their friends when demonstrating the capabilities of a car as it climbs a hill step on the gas and make sure to get the machine traveling at a certain rate of speed. Under that speed, which Its rather easy to determine after you have become familiar with a car, the machine seems draggy. This is precisely the case, and the effect is the same as though the grade were increased. Smith drives too many miles with the car just under its rolling speed. In other words, the car always is trying to get up to the speed at which it would run most efficiently. “Sort of a case of hills, hills every- — — A Ee — MOTORISTS NOW DEMAND FURNISHED CABIN CAMPS Bungalettes in Soutk and West Have Every Possi- ble Convenience. OLD STYLE IS SHUNNED With an estimated investment of $5,- 000,000,000 in scenery, fresh air and recreation, the American motorist. who within a few weeks now will be heeding the call of the long highway, is entitled to more conveniences of every sort at the free campsites of the Nation. ‘his is the assertion of u. M. Will- lams, president of the Marmon Motor Car Co., who envisions in 1928 not only the greatest of all touring seasons but also one in which the comfort and well- being of the tourist will be more ade- quately provided for than ever before. “The coming vacation season,” says Mr. Williams, “doubtless will see the last of insanitary and inefficiently- maintained stopping ] laces. The Ameri- can gypsy awheel is democratic enough, and likes to swap experiences with other motorists from Maine, Kansas or Texas, but he is demanding more priv- acy and more luxury than the old-fash- loned and primitive ree camp affords. “In answer to his demand for greater comfort there has sprung up the ‘bun- galette’ or cottage camp, which origin- ated, I believe, in Florida and which has been extended rapidly throughout the South and Southwest as well as in other sections of the country. “Instead of finding soggy tents, swampy grounds and common wash basins and cooks stoves, the 1928 mo- torist. if he selects his route carefully, will be able to make week-end trips or overnight stops at these well-managed cottage camps, occupy a stuccoed bun- galetts with a screened-in sleeping ‘porch, comfortable spring cots and all where and not a hill to be seen, eh?” | Smith laughed.

At an- other camp, near Zanesville, Ohio, the tourist may have the unusual experi- ence of occupying an old wine cask made over into a cosy and attractive cottage. Camp Grande, just out of El Paso, Tex., a model of its kind, offers every convenience that could be expect- ed in an up-to-date small town, even down to a police station. “As an illustration of the increasing popularity of these cabin camps, it is noted that while patronage at Denver's tent camp at Overland Park, one of America’s most popular rendezvous for tourists, fell off 30 per cent last year, business in the furnished cottage camps of the same neighborhood increased 100 per cent, “This institution, coming in response to more exacting demands, offers the freedom of the out-of-doors at a mod- erate cost, provides the tourist with every possible convenience, and estab- ishes a privacy impossible under the conditions of the old-fashioned com- munity camp.” Old, But Still Good. The motorist has been advised from time immemorial to keep a regular check on the crankcase oil supply. He does for a while and the fact that it always is up to par indicates to him that the process is useless and a waste of time. It is not.

LEAGUE TO BE TOLD OF UNREST IN SAMOA Former Administrator of Ter- ritory Reaches Aukland for Government Conference. Auckland, New Zealand, April 28 (A.P.).—-Sir George Richardson, former administrator of Western Samoa for the New Zealand government under its | mandate for the League of Nations, has arrived here to confer with the govern- ment before proceeding to Geneva to appear before the mandates commit- tee. Sir George, who was administrator of Samoa for five years, will give evidence to the committee, as representative of New Zealand, about the recent condi- tions of unrest there. These caused the government to send two cruisers to the island with the result that 400 natives were arrested and several Eu- ropeans alleged to have been their leaders were expelled. “There never has been any desire on the part of the natives for a change of the flag which flies over Samoa,” Sir George says. “I regret that there has been any such suggestion. It was in- vented by conspirators on Apia beach who buttonhole tourists and talk this way.” Sir George has been succeeded by Col. Stephen St. Allen who has the problem of determining the disposition of the arrested natives who are being held, POINCARE SEES U. S.

Old Verse Signboard Goes With Morgue ~ eommes Paris, April 28 (A.P.)—-A puzzling signboard has disappeared from the end of the little islund in the Seine, back of Notre Dame, opposite the site of the old Paris Mcurgue. Although the morgue was moved, the sign continued to hang for five years over a little barroom, displaying this weather- beaten verse: “Whatever one may do, Whatever one may say, One is better off here Than across the way.” Old-timers remembered it referred to the old morgue, but the newcomers missed the grim humor and thought it stupid.

WASHINGTON: SUNDAY, APRIL 29, ‘1928. ‘he WASHINGTON REALTO LIBRARY AT LOUVAIN PRODUCT OF WORLD COOPERATION IN Ant Architecture, Ornament and Sculpture Have United in Building Structure. EXAMPLE IS PROVIDED FOR WIDE COLLABORATION Lack of Modelers, Restricted by Immigration Rules, Is Handicap in U. S. The library of the University of Lou- vain in Belgium is moving to comple- tion as an ideal product of world co- operation in the fine arts, it is declared by Ronald Hoyt Pearce, who in the Journal of the American Institute of Architects says that from the destruc- tion wrought by the German invasion an outstanding monument to concert of effort between architect and sculptor is arising. Collaboration in the arts of design, as a necessity of modern architectural practice, is being fostered by the insti- tute through a committee on allied arts, of which J. Monroe Hewlett, of New York, has just been appointed chair- man. The Beaux Arts Institute of De- sign is also working to the same end. At Louvain, when the library is dedi- cated on July 4, an international as- semblage, Mr. Pearce declares, will wit- ness a fresh triumph of this principle, which in America architects, sculptors, mural painting and landscape architects are vitalizing in the more imposing edifices, such as the Cunard Building in New York and Benjamin Wistar Mor- ris. No Cooperation Here. “Building conditions in this country do not always allow of this happy co- operation,” Mr. Pearce asserts, “and yet it is hardly possible to exaggerate the wonderful strides that have been made in this direction during the last few years. “The relations between architect, sculptor and workmen in this country are now so totally different from what they were formerly that the situation has to be faced from another angle in comparison with work done in Europe in past centuries when the work of one artist so merged itself with another that it was almost impossible to dis- cern the work of one man as pertain- ing exclusively to one particular art. The library of the University of Louvain in Belgium, new nearing com- pletion, is probably one of the out- standing new buildings in which it has been possible to carry out an almost ideal relation between what might be termed architecture, architectural orna- ment and sculpture. Combine at Entrance. “The principal entrance on the main facade of the library expresses this at- tempt to combine the two arts, repeated throughout on the other elevations and on the tower, which the Engineering Foundation of New York is to equip with a clock and carillon costing $80,- — is true that the opportunity does not always come in a building to ex- press so much outwardly in stone of the history, the sentiment and late events, such as the war, aS Was po5- sible in this case, but that need never discourage the attempt to combine the two arts on apy public or semi-public building where, nearly always, there is some motive demanding the talent of a sculptor on which he should begin working at the time the general scheme of the whole design is conceived. “In discussing the library at Louvain from this angle, we should remember that it is an entirely new building and not a restoration of the old library de- stroyei at the beginning of the great war in 1914. On the other hand, it was most important that the new building should be a part of a university 500 years old, and to express to the worid “both on the exterior and interior—a living history of the university and the events that caused a new library to be built. “These points alone—as can he readily seen—demanded the aid of other artists than the architect, and this brings up the part played in any building by the so-called architectural sculptor. . Modelers Becoming Fewer, “Here is one of the most important questions of the present time—the situation of the architectural sculptors snop and his workmen. Due to the re- cent immigration laws, the steady in- | Nux of modelers from abroad has prac- tically stopped—the unoins only allow | ‘ew men to be apprenticed at one time: -herefore where are good modelers to some from if they do not receive in- struction outside the shops and their working hours? ) “How much depends on a good -_modeler! Not only to interpret the drawings, but to give an added inspira- tion to the particular part of ‘the de- sign he is called upon to collab- orate in! “Ryery architect knows only too well, | how, if a modeler has ability and in- spiration, his own design will be im- proved, but on the other hand, if such is not the case, the moceler may work days without producing the desired effect, and the architect with little time to stand over him attempting to get what he wants, says is desperation.

Study and de- through the activities organized realtors of the country has brought the broker of today a much broader demand for real estate service of various types.

When a broker can picture a large modern structure on what seems to be a neglected corner lot or in the midst group of tnconsequential build- he is giving birth to an idea thai will result profitably both to him ane the owner.

The realtor, in performing his profes- sional services, is often times called on for advice in an hour of distress oc- casioned through death or other calam- ities, and in his capacity as personal ad- viser he is frequentiy in possession of the most confidentiai and personal in- formation relative to his clientu’s af- fairs. This position of the realtor is sumilar to the relation of an attorney to his client and requires the greatest amount of care and caution in order to protect those dependent for proper advice and guidance.

BIG LOAN IS RUMORED Canton, China, April 28 (A.P.).— “Peace on earth, good will toward our British neighbors at Hongkong,” is now the government sanctioned slogan of south China, Since Gen. Li Chal-sum, head of the Cantonese government, and Sir Cecil Clementi, governor of British Hong- kong, exchanged visits several weeks ago, relations between the two govern- ments have been more cordial than at any time during the past five years, re- ports from both British and Chinese sources agree. Gen. Li went to Hongkong and was the guest of the British governor, and then Sir Cecil came to Canton as the guest of Gen. Li. The “peace on earth” slogan was decreed by the Chinese au- thorities. Several humorous incidents occurred during the exchange of visits of the two officials. When Gen. Li went to Hong- kong, Hongkong Chinese flew the Chi- nese nationalist flag for the first time. As «a result the Hongkong flagmakers worked overtime supplying the demand When Sir Cecil came to Canton the Union Jack was the order of the day, and in turn the local flagmakers reaped their harvest, sewing machines hummed day and night before the British chief arrived, and even the paintmakers’ shops felt the strain. Antiforcign slo- gans were scrubbed from walls and the “peace on earth” phrase took its place Se ee TRAVEL ee TRAVEL Those who failed to fly the Union Jack } were fined $5. When Sir Cecil arrived a Chinese gun- | boat boomed out a salute of seventeen | in scarlet | and sky-blue uniforms smothered all | noises in “God Save the King.” After two days of birds’ nest soup, fatted calf and sharks’ fins feasts Sir Cecil was taken for a launch ride along the Canton waterfront, this event clos- ing his visit to Canton. Ahead of the official launch was another bearing a Chinese band, which played “The End he - FRANCONIA WORLD < CRUISE Sailing on New York January 15th next ry S april: Let this pageant show you “how the other half lives”... take a trip where customs and complexions are different ... glory in the fairy-tale feeling of something mysteri- ous just around the corner... watch strange Jooking people doing queer things as though they were quite ordinary ... never wes there a voyage like this . . . the most complete world panorama... including lands not visited by any other cruise .. + off the beaten track .. . full of new interest. ..a super-ship with the cruising viewpoint built into her... two of the foremost leaders in travel linking their 175 years of prestige, experience and effi. ciency for this cruise.

z i Ie TONDORF TO TALK TO QUAKE SAVANTS ATU, OF Y. SESSION Director of Georgetown Uni- versity Observatory Is Paid Honor by Seismologists. we ee ee ee STUDENTS ARE READY FOR NEW YORK TRIP Arrangemenis Complete to Hold Final Debates—Car- roli Club Banquet Date. Director Francis A. Tondorf, 8S. J., of the Georgetown University Seismic Ob- servatory, whose studies of earthquakes have won world-wide recognition, will be one of the principal lecturers at the third annual conference of the Eastern section of the Seismological Society of America which opens tomorrow at the University of Virginia. These sessions, continuing through Wednesday, will contribute a wealth of data by leading authorities of the country on some of the more recent catastrophies. The great quake in Palestine, last July, one of the most destructive in his- tory, will be dealt with by Father Ton- dorf in a specially prepared paper re will read at the Tuesday session. He will read a second paper on “Lightning «S$ an Accompan‘ment to Earthquakes,” at the same session. Owing to the wide range of the in- struments at Georgetown, Father Ton- corf has had an excellent opportunity to study the recordings of the great Falestine disaster. His new Galitzin vertical seismograph, one of the few in existence, has been a valuable aid in ad- VYancing these studies. Father Tondorf was chairman of the’ committee on resolutions at the annul meeting of the American Geographical Union which closed here Friday. Students Study Shipping. Under the direction of Prof. Alfred H. Haag, head of the Department of Inter- national Shipping at the School of For- eign Service, a delegation of students and faculty members of that branch of the universit, will visit New York Sat- urday to make a study of its harbor and port facilities. On previous trips of a similar nature, the Georgetown groups have inspected the ports of Baltimore and Philadelphia. A number of diplomats, and officials of the United States Siipping Board, in- cluding Gen. A. C. Dalton, vice president and general manager of the Merchant Ship Fleet Corporation, will accompany the party which leaves here on special cars of the Pennsylvania Railroad at 1:25 o'clock Saturday morning. While in. New York the Georgetown delegation will be guests of the Todd Shipbuilding Co., one of the largest in the country. The students will be taken on an inspection trip about the harbor and wharfs and after luncheon a recep- tion will be tendered to them by Mayor Walker at the City Hall. Walker are expected to be among the guests at a dinner arranged in honor of the visiting group that night. The party will return to Washington on a train leaving at 2:30 o'clock the fol- | lowing morning. These annual trips have proved not only popular, but help- ful to the students who are taking the ' shipping courses at the Foreign Service School, and they are expected later to | Submit papers on their own observa- | | | tions. . Dr. Edmund A. Walsh, 8. J., regent of the Foreign Service School, and Dr. Thomas H. Healy, assistant dean, have been attending the sessions of the Na- tional Foreign Trade Council in Hous- ton, Tex., but will return in time for the New York trip. Final Prize Debates. Announcement was made at the School of Law that the final prize de- bate to determine the school champiun- ehip would be held May 8 between the winners of four preliminary contests. The subject selected is “Resolved, That the United States shall refuse military protection to American private interests abroad.” Dean George E, Hamiiton of the law gchool has started his regular course of lectures on “Legal Ethics’ which he has been giving Wednesday nights for the last 20 years or more. Dean Hamilton is one of the oldest Georgetown eraduates, having been connected with the faculty for 50 years.

Germans Penalized TO SELL CRITICIZED Such Persons Almost Ruin Art, Andre Lhote De- clares. Paris, April 28 ( A.P.).—Picture-sell- ing almost ruins art, says Andre Lhoite, artist and critic. Young artists, and some old ones, too, he says grope for a form of expression that will make their work salable. “They spend a season on cubism, an- other on superrealism and a few months later they turn back to the flattest sort of realism,” says this modernist who thinks too many moderns fit their art theories to salability instead of really “expressing” themselves as they pre- tend. Lhote also takes to task the train- ed artists who think they have found a substitute for hard, careful work by For U.S. Ship Seizure, (Special Cable Dispatch.) Berlin, April 27.—For handing over } to the American prohibition authori- ties the German schooner Przemyal, laden with spirits, to get the $65,000 reward, the Hamburg maritime court today withdrew the tickets of Capt. Thode and Mate Petersen. : The ship was consigned to Vancouver on the papers, but the captain and mate believed this to be a blind to cover up the United States destina- tion, so had a talk with the American Consul General at Hamburg. The lat- ter allegedly gave them a letter of in- troduction to the authorities at Colon, in the Panama Canal Zone. These ad- vised the men to take the ship to New Orleans, give it up to the prohibition authorities and claim the reward. Dis- covering the real facts, the New Or- leans authorities released the ship which proceeded to Vancouver. The “pes Pedrmy: to gw ge that the captain and mate acted good faith. They will be prosecuted also for at- 7 putting “the most paint possible on the canvas,” thinking thereby to “show their temperament in a spirited and ag- gressive manner.” All this, he feels, is done with an eye on the market and until the sale of pic- tures ceases to be the sole object of young painters things will go badly in art. “If paintings were not sold,” he said, “art would be saved.” Woman Doesn’t Miss Church in 52 Years Lawrence, Kans., April 27 (A.P).— Continuous attendance at Sunday school for 52 years is the record of Miss Hattie Radcliffe.

Dr. A S..McGarrah, of New York, as pulpit orator. Three days later, May 6, the final day of the celebration, Dr. Sizoo will take as the text of his sermon, “To the Day.” Dr. Wallace Radcliffe, pastor emeritus wt the old church, is spending his days of retiro- years ago, when Dr. Kadcliffe and Justice Harlan started a campaign for the erection in Washington of a Presbyterian catnedral. Nat- urally, having an established church on this triangular plot of ground in tke verycheart and center of Washington, Dr. Radclifte and Justice Harlan thought that the piece of prop- erty occupied by the church and ex ‘tending to Fourteenth street, flanked on the south by New York avenue and on the north by H street, would be ideal as an acquisition. They therefore proposed to the governing body of the church that this small tract of land be purchased; but after careful consideration, due deliberation, the business men who at that time helped guide the fortunes of the New York Avenue. Presbyterian Church frowned on the proposition. The price of this land stood in the way. “It would cost too much,” they argued. ‘The pricé. indeed, was rather high, so many believed. It was $13,- 500, Today the New York Avenue Presby- terian Church is making negotiations to buy this same piece of ground that was turned down twenty years ago, and the church is going to pay for it the munificent sum of $130,000. “You see,” said Dr. Radcliffe, “that while ministers are sometimes looked upon as dreamers and idealists and men who have their eyes on spiritual rather than material things, they are sometimes, too, good business men. It would have been a good business stroke to have purchased this parcel of ground twenty years ago—if only for investment. + * * * i}. RADCLIFFE, ia his centennial sermon, cited the fact that the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church “antedates all others save one in the city of Washiixton: Its life,” he said, “has veen almost contemporaneous with the life of the Capital. The church which was the beginning of this church was not associated, whilst it vas an associate cLburch, with the Americar Presbyterian Church. It was, for twenty years after its origin, a part of the Ass .cisted Reformed Church, a branch of the Scotey Church trans- planted here, whose chalacteristic was an em- phatic orthodoxy in doctrine, and in worship The Rev.

From one of the oldest parishoners, Mrs. EK. H. Adams, of 1757 Euelid street northwest, comes this interesting bit of im- formation: ‘‘As the church was not built until some time after it Wa: organized, in 18035, there is no picture of it for that year. Services were held in the first Treasury Luilding, an old frame structure that stood where the north end of the present building is now, “IT have collected data fu; » long time on early Washington and will add that candles were used at all evening services, long before lamps, and old wood stoves “ur1:ished heat for shivering Presbyterians.” “It might be added, too, that the pastor in those days was his own sexton.

He established and taught in the first school] for colored children. lle was active in organizing the first societies tor relief of the poor and Cestitute, So in- side and outside of church affairs, he man- aged to keep active, was, as Dr. Radcliffe puts it, a shepherd tc the entire community, While the F Street Church, under the guidance of Dr. Laurie, was growing apace, there was established the Second Presbyterian ——later to form the merger. Its first regular paster was Dr. Daniel Baker ,during whose incumbency John Quincy Adams was a regu- from the church. PI + * * TRUE pastor, left, without a congregation, as a result of all this furore, found it expe- dient to resign. The chutch attendance dwindled so that the editice was frequently closed—dust settled on the pews and pulpit. Finally a new pastor arrived--the Rev, Mr. Eckard—-and on the first Sunday that the church was opened found that his congrega- tion consisted of one person. | Discouraged, the pastor and the parishoner closed the church and went to their hemes, to return that evening to a better reception; for some 34 persons gathered for worship. They had come from other churches by request, as Walter Clephane sets forth fer the story in the archives of the New Yorr Avenue Presby- terian Church, ‘‘to ai least give the appear- auce of a congregation and to lend encourage- ment to Mr. Eckard. Thereaf.er the church progressed with varying vitissitudes of for- tune, until its members united with the F Street Church in 1859, when the name of the latter organization was chauged to the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church,’ The property on F street was sold, the little brick building that s*ocd on the site was torn down, and the congregation moved over into a new church, taking with them the pastor of the F Street Church, Dr, Gurley.

The age requirement for men remained at 21. But now the distinction between ages of women is being wiped out after a spirited *Votes-for-Flappers” campaign that stirred up the risibilities of staid old John Bull as they have not been stirred for a long time. What happened as the grand climax in the drive to get ballots for young women is here told by an eyewitness of the colorful campaign. By BETTY GRAM. London. STRIKING girl. perhaps the most A beautiful blonde in England, rushed across the court of Buckingham Palace pursued by a detachment of London bobbies. One of the helmeted giants captured her and carried her, struggling, beyond the big iron gates. Reporters hastily jotted down notes, cameras clicked, and in an hour newspapers were on the streets and cables were racing to the ends of the earth. The militant suffragist again! Particularly in their eyes. “Why,” said: the startled Britisher, look- ing at his wife across the supper table, ‘‘I thought this whole business had been settled long ago. ‘But these are have answered. © alleen Miss Prudent Coutts-Trotter, daugh- ter of Sir Victor Coutts-Trotter, chief jus- tice of the high courts of Madras, dashed away from the police across the courts of Buckingham Palace, England thought—if it thought—that the votes for “flappers’” was nothing but a pink-tea issue. People were not sure why Mr. Baldwin, the prime min- ister, had promised the vote to the young women of England. But now, with the news- papers carrying headlines and pictures, they sensed a live wire in the issue, Miss Coutts-Trotter, on the rainy day of the palace incident, held in her hand some- thing of no intrinsic merit. It was a letter asking King George to mention votes for women of 21 on the same basis as men in his speech opening parliament. This request could in no way affect the speech, for that is always written for his majesty by the prime minister and contains only what the cabinet das chosen to put into it, a program of the measures which the government intends to pass in the new session. The King of England has no choice and the young women who staged the drama of the early visit to Buckingham Palace were aware of this. Their act was only a discreet warning of what would follow if they were not allowed to vote in the next general election. This was a culmination of a campaign of which the public has not always been aware. A vear before this, likewise on the morn- ing of the king’s speech, ten beautiful young women headed by Miss Dorothy Woodman, secretary of the Young Suffragists, had paraded before parliament carrying banners. Characteristic ones said: “Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, but Blondes Prefer the Vote.” “We Can Cross the Channel, but We Can’t Cross the Ballot.’’ “We Shan’t Work for Vote for You.” These genial giants, the London bobbies, peered out from under the domes of their blue helmets, shot glances at the pretty marauders, readjusted their black chin straps and searched for arguments to head off the young picketers. “What! Are vou suffragists at it again?’ asked one, “No,” answered Miss Woodman, ‘“‘only the had been born England people rubbed the ‘flappers,’’’ she may * * ~ - You Jf We Can’t SUA TEE eT Ae aa!

The bobbies were puzzled; they like the girls, they probably saw no harm in what they were doing, and yet—parliament house had to be saved from a demonstration. “But young iladies,’’ the officer impro vised, pursuing them, ‘“‘your posters are of the wrong size.” ‘How can that be?’’ queried Miss Wood- man, “I have seen a man carrying a poster WLM TE Hal igivitid, TT ETE GPRM LE iy Wather died That iibittae Women are not only eminently fit to serve on juries, they are badly needed to bring re- lief from inefficient men jurors, declares Ma- hel Walker Willebrandt, Assistant Attorney General of the United States, in May Mc- Call’s. “It is a menace to our institutions to leave this constitutionally established arm of jus- tice to the ignorant and indifferent; or, men picked from the polling lists who have not enough political pull to get off, or who are out of a job and want to pick up $3 a day,” according to Mrs. Willebrandt. At- tacking those States which avoid trying out women on juries, she says: “New York is such a place. It seems in- eredible that fear of her persists in spite of the continued decadence of the jury. system. It amounts to saying that any kind of man is a better juror than the best woman, for as a matter of fact, in many districts, we are only getting the least responsible type of men on juries. “Time was when jury service was a mark of leadership and distinction in the communi- ty. Now, those called rush to the judge with excuses or seek the district political leader in an effort to secure influence for their ex- emption, . The average jury has been called “a lot of worse, io the ‘professional juryman’ who most of all degrades the Constitution’s high intentions. His kind is usually found hang- ing around police or county courts, “T have later heard them in the police corridors gloating over the number of cases they decided ‘for’ such-and such a policeman or sheriff; for these professionals are usually convictors, “Then there are the professional ‘acquit- ters’ who infest jury panels. “In the police courts I saw the advent of the gentler sex rout professional jurors, and I have heard those scavengers of justice com- n to their ward politicians that women didn’t ask to be excused enough, and there- fore no vacancies appeared in the lists of J ' .f venire, so that they could no longer pick up a living by hanging around the hall of jus- tice. ‘‘Most jurors, women just like men, are drawn from the middie class. Most are busy, earnest, hopeful, home-loving, moderately well educated and fairly well adjusted men- tally, and are living without virulent com- plexes. Such women are eminently fit, for jury service, “Tl am not claiming for woman any superi- ority, per se, over man as a juror. The good results which follow her into the Jury box come from other causes. What I do in- sist is that she is not inherently unfit, and that when unfitness is encountered in her, it arises, like it does in men, from particular prejudices peculiar to the individual, and disqualifying only in cases where that preju- dice would have an opportunity to be ex- ercised. When she is believed to harbor prejudice, it can be avoided by challenging her, as for generations past prejudice has been handled when encountered in other talesmen., ‘We should bear in mind that merely be- cause emotion is easily shown by woman, it does not follow that she feels emotion any more deeply, or that showing it will make it sway her reason, “It furthermore is apparent that from the women who are called we secure jurors su- perior intellectually and educationally to the men who remain after those whose business will suffer have been excused, and the pres- ence of women on the panel is causing jury commissioners to be more careful of the type of men whose names are put with those of women in the box, and is goading indifferent officials into providing clean and respectable surroundings in which the jury is to de- liberate, “Equally great prejudice and a wide di- versity of opinion may be obtained from men on a question which touches them deeply. For example, bias occurs as frequently among men on labor questions as it does among women on questions of sex.” ‘ jis riniaithindiadi PRT MMT nti OD ME ee the King. twice this size around par- liament for weeks and he was not arrested.’’ “He is daft,” the bobble, “Well, perhaps we are, Loo, 50 why arrest us?’’ grinned This was too smart, “Very miss, but I must take you to Scot- land Yard.” Miss Woodman was led away to the police com- missioner, who continued the interrogation, and at last fell back on an act of 1879 to prove that was breaking the law. “f will not arrest you this time,’’ he warned her, because of your extreme vouth, but be careful to observe regulations in the future.’’ It was at this time that the editor of the Evening Standard coined the de- risive term, ‘Votes for Flappers.”’ Cartoons appeared show- ing flippant bobbed- haired girls with skirts above crossed knees, smok- ing cigarettes in foot-long holders, entitled, ‘“‘Flappers — These want the vote.” They were to be ridiculed out of political existence. Many women under 30 who had never thought much of voting suddenly realized their position. They were being denied something on the ground of their being somehow identified with the cock- tail-drinking, cigarette- smoking, time-wasting young buterflies of May- fair and Piccadilly. They grew angry, self- conscious, vote-hungry. Substance was added to the campaign carried on by the young suffragists and their older allies. This campaign proceeded unabated. Mem- bers of parliament were constantly lobbied. Whenever the franchise proposal was up for discussion every cabinet minister received glaring circulars about the promise of Mr. Baldwin. To him the suffragists sent a letter every day scoring the points in their plea for enfranchisement. Some of these were of such startling originality that the press gave them leading positions. After three months of this daily reminder the prime minister finally granted a hearing to the suffragists, Twenty-six women from various equal- zhts organizations went on this deputation. ld and young were there, Many of them had served prison terms in the old militant sOrry, she King George campaign. and At that time, when Lloyd George Asquith were the stone walls opposing 1,000 defenders of the cause had gone to jail and many hundreds had hunger-struck. A sincere desire to have no revival of such a bitter contest surely con- tributed to the removal of much of the op- position on the part of “higher-ups” in the government now, When Mr. Baldwin received the suffragists he listened with great but with apparent listlessness. The experienced dele- gates such as Lady Rhondda and Dame Mili- cent Fawcett first. Then came the turn for the young woman under 30 to state suifrage for women, courtesy spoke Premier Stanley Baldwin, who promised to support the meas- ure giving the franchise to the young women of England. At right are some of the flapper pickets parading in the rain. her own case. At this point the prime min- ister leaned forward and drank in every word with keen attention. Before him stood a firebrand, speaking with the intensity and poise of a statesman, in language as polished as a poet’s and with arguments as well mar- shaled as a parliamentarian’s. “If this is the young flapper that has been so much —triticised in the press of England,” he must have thought, *‘well, more power to them.’’ ne * a a o HIS girl orator whom Lady Rhondda has since dé¢scribed as the person who clinched the prime minister’s decision Was Nancy Stewart Parnell, of the same family as the great Irish patriot, Charles Stewart Parnell. Still In her early twenties, a B.A. of Liverpool Univer- sity, she is a senior English mistress in a boarding schoo] for young womea in Liverpool. Her arguments — that women under 30 pay .taxes in the same way as the men; that many young women now work and are sub- ject. to factory acts ind other meas- ures under the same condi- tions as men, aud that out of 30 countries that had given the franchise to both sexes England and Hungary were the only 2 that had not given it equally at the age of 21-—- s0 impressed Mr. Baldwin that he promised the suf- fragists that he would an- swer their requests in par- liament in a very short time. But the young suffragists did not relent in their corre- spondence. He was still bom- barded with his daily letter. And when he promised in the house of commons that he intended to introduce the franchise bill before Easter he received a jubilant epis- tle: “Dear Mr. Prime Minister: Thank you very much for the beautiful Easter egg. We hope it will hatch soon.” This was a year ago, and nothing. came of the pretty Easter egg. No hen sat on the nest and nothing was hatched. Questions were continually asked in the house of commons, vague answers were made in reply, sympathizers wrote long let- ters to the press, meetings were held by old organiza- tions and new, but still the Conservative government could not make up its mind to act.. So prominent were the opponents of the measure in the cabinet that it looxed for a time as though the prime minister was going ta have great difficulty in keep- ing his preelection pledge. Men like Lord Birkenhead and Winston Churchill open- ly attacked the proposal and tried to minimize the im- portance of Mr. Baldwin’s promise. They deprecated the ‘“‘votes for flappers” by calling it a revolutionary measure that would put the political destinies of Great Britain definitely and for all time into the hands of the female sex. ‘“‘Twelve and a quarter million men as against fourteen and a half million women will be the record on the new register of the parliamentary elec- torate,” they warned the public. Mr. Baldwin, in the face of this bombard- ment, was championed by the home secretary, Sir William Joynson-Hicks, and together they withstood the gunfire from within their own ranks. Their leading opponents in the government hoped to convince them of their folly in the natioha] Conservative convention at Cardiff last summer, and had their guns loaded for the attack. But the Conservative women themselves packed the convention with their delegates and won an overwhelm- ing majority for the equal-rights measure. ’ 1 + vit re ’ a a alt } pr it mt i Mai iether a eh bees (ett ie, seat Re re ape eatin icra tte wt va AN cat ar teaser /,. 7 “7 y Sa ws J /, U4 yy Ai ; YW Shy Y 7 Ah Z, Cy 7, 4 y YW We J Wh SI) MRMOLOEE: [ladda shan 46 Abin, bla | Se ee Mae =}? = syne" nena q- , . * z . . . 5 ed . ~~ Shenae Ee : oo aS Be Bk hecpcaaee i 5 ia eae 3 pers oe eae ee > | . . ». . 3 }¢ SS “ oe AA Oe a A me 3 . sine es 3 eenapnre Rea be A. ° - Re 1.4 ~s F: ds.

The prime minister’s pledge had been yindi- cated. + * + o HINGS looked rosy for the suffragists, But wait, Somewhere there must be a catch. Delay meant insecurity and nothing hap- pened when parliament reconvened. What was the cause? Powerful men behind the scenes were trying to complicate the issue. ‘Raise the voting age for men as well as women to 25,” they said. Others talked of combining the bill with one to disen- franchise those in receipt of the poor law relief in institutions. But whatever the source of the opposition, one thing was cer- tain: it was sufficient to delay the bill. Young suffragists and old were becoming uneasy. ‘‘What shall we do now?” said the ‘“flappers.’’ ‘‘Real victory for political equal- ity was won ten years ago by the grave agitators who went to prison. Shall we have to do the same?” they pondered, With the prime minister’s promise ob record, there could be no need for resortjng to such drastic action as would send them to jail. But what could they do to let Britain know that the issue was alive and urgent? They had to make a demonstration. Not much of a demonstration, one may say, thinking of the Pankhursts, the Dorothy Evanses, the Pethick-Larences and _ tbe woman who flung herself in front of the king’s horse at the derby. But these things are relative. Miss Coutts-Trotter, I am sure, would stop at nothing if it would serve & cause she believed in; neither would Miss Woodman, né@r Miss Parnell. This is not a grim story. Now the political forces at work to pass and to obstruct legislation have been neatly balanced, Fourteen years ago, when suffrage was a younger issue, harder and uglier fighting was called for. Now a blond head, a daily letter to a prime minister, a carefully devised piece of dramatization, have perhaps turned the neat balance. And 5,000,000 women who never could vote be- fore may go to the polls in Britain’s next general election. The Young Suffragists have not achieved this, no doubt about it. But it will be an incautious person who says they have not contributed perhaps the very touch which swung the scales in their own favor, ‘Copyright, 192%, by Publle Ledger.) Tips for Builders. If you are just starting to follow the model airplane program sponsored by The Wash- ington Post, you may find use for some advice. Here are two tips: 1. Don’t be discouraged if you find pian» wire hard to bend the first time you try it. Piano wire is tempered steel—you have to make it behave! Care and patience, with a pair of round-nosed pliers, will do it. Bend the wire just as you would bend soft wire, but remember to allow for the spring. Piano wire tends to recover its original shape—you have to bend it a little too far if you want it to stay bent far enough! 2, Before you start carving balsa, have that knife sharp. A dull blade usually means that, just about the time you have finished a spare or a propeller, you'll put a little too much pressure against the wood. Result, a chance to try it over again. In carving, don’t slash at your piece of balsa, and don’t try to cut too much at a stroke. Give your knife a steady push, drawing the blade slightly across the wood. Remember, for your own safety, to carve with the edge of the blade away from you. And, for the safety of others, keep the blade closed when your knife is not in use. ee eet ees Oe RE ee Oe a Se

By JOHN LEO COONTZ. AWRENCE KORTRIGHT, of colonial New York, had four daughters. Three of them married well. The fourth, in the estimation of the family, did not marry 20 well. Of the three who “married well’ one married Nicholas Gouverneur, the most fa- mous male member of the celebrated line of this name, whose association with New York dates back to the year 1700. He was head of the mercantile house of Gouverneur, Kemble & Co., noted in its day. Another married Thomas Knox, also a leading New York merchant. The remaining daugh- ter of the three who “married well’? married Capt. Heyleger, grand chamberlain to the King of Denmark. But the fourth—Eliza—Elizabeth—mar- ried a young Virginian of no particular wealth beyond certain lands and “certain ‘prospects of earnings” from the practice of law, which he was just entering upon. How- ever, that was sufficient for them, for, as said, they were married, The young Virginian took his beautiful young bride back home with him, back to the little village of Fredericksburg, Va., where he had opened his law office but a short time before; took her from the cold atmosphere of family feeling toward her union back to the sunny, hospitable, care- free easy-going life of the middle colony, and let it go at that. And they were happy, supremely happy, never separated for a mo- ment in near fifty years of married life until death removed them from each other’s pres- ence. ! Yesterday the Jittle village of Fredericks- burg celebratedf/fthe 170th anniversary of the birth of that young Virginian. It cele- brated it by/ joining hands with his de- scendants in the opening to the public of the law office of the young barrister as it was in his day, desks, pens, chairs, books, papers, furniture—all, dedicated to his memory, with pride and feeling that he who once walked its rough cobblestone ways and gazed out across the Rappahannock in his moments of leisure, was one of Virginia’s greatest sons in an aze of truly great men. ‘ © * * » AMES MONROE’S name is linked indis- solubly with the Monroe Doctrine, char- terized as the ‘‘corner stone’? of America’s foreign policy, enunciated while serving his second term as President in 1823. Today it accounts for American marines being in Nicaragua; yesterday it was the basis of argument against our joining the League of Nations: a quarter of a century ago it was at the bottom of President Roosevelt’s policy of the “big stick’”’ with regard to American powers in relation to foreign powers, anent claims demanded of Venezuela by European creditors. Cleveland, before Roosevelt, in- voked its power in a boundary dispute be- tween Great Britain and Venezuela. “Tne original Monroe Doctrine,’’ says Albert Bushnell Hart, ‘Shas been much al- tered and enlarged by public statemenis made -by Presidents and Secretaries of State, especially President Polk in 1845; by Presi- dent Grant in 1869; by Secretary Evarts in 1880, who used the new phrase ‘the para- mount interest of the United . States.’ President Cleveland, in 1895, took the extreme position that the Monroe Doctrine D RLIZA KOR7TR.G 1 his death went to Paris, where she died and where her body still r was international law binding on Great Britain, and that it was violated when Great Britain refused to arbitrate question with Venezuela. Secretary Olney went further by the statement that ‘today the United States is practically sovereign on this continent and its flat is law upon the subjects to which it confines its interposition.’ ”’ The Doctrine—how it came to be desig- nated so, no one has as yet determined, for originally it was embodied in a presidential message—had its inception in the threatened invasion of Latin America by the Holy Al- liance bent upon restoration of States there to Spain and Portugal. Monroe declared, ‘‘The political system of the allied powers is essentially different * * * from that of America. We owe it, therefore, to candor and to amicable relations existing between the United States and those powers, to declare that we should consider any at- tempt on their part to extend their system to any portion of the hemisphere as danger- ous to our peace and safety.”’ was effective, It burst of the alliance, Colonization of the Western Hemisphere as touched upon also in the message with the declaration that “‘The American con- tinents, by the free and independent condi- tion which they have assumed and main- tain, are henceforth not to be considered as subjects for future colonization by European powers.” And tut ore attempt has been made at such colonization by any Kuropean power in the Latin Americas since that dats (1823). That was made by France during the Civil War by the occupation of Mexico, Seward intimated plainly to that Government that it must desist or the United States would compel it to. France got out. No tradition of the American Government is more typical of the sentiment of American people than is the Monroe Doc- trine. It had its birth in the isolation policy of President Washington, when he held that “‘the United States was not called upon to take part in the affairs, and es- pecially in the wars, of Europe.”’ A line of demarcation was laid down between the Old World and the New, between the Eastern Hemisphere and the Western Hemisphere, to-wit, that one was one and one was the other, and that in so far as the destinies of the New World were concerned, they were not to be involved in any With the civilization of the Old. Je + * e 1, hapa and his Secretary of State, John Q@. Adams, extended the theory of Wash- ington, It followed as a natural corollary the freedom of the Latin-American States from European parentage as did the ‘‘isola- tion policy’ of the first President, the free- dom of the American colonies from Britain. Up until the year 1775, when the American colonies struck for their freedom from the mother country, there was not one civilized power on the Western Hemisphere but was subject to some European power, “It was a new thought,” says Dr. Hart, “that the Americans could establish themselves as in- dependent and sovereign nations,” Students of history have dubbed Monroe’s administration as the ‘“‘era of good feeling.”’ There were no political parties during it as we know them today.

The “empire” that he saw was called a “dream.” But the great Kentuckian clung to it the more ten- aciously. Even Monroe faulted here; for after- a famous “‘swing around the circle” he came back to Washington unconvinced of the need of the “internal improvements.” Such were the political times of James Monroe, fifth President of the United States. He was the last of the “Virginia dynasty,” of whose office tenure old John Adams said, in a customary moment of petulance, that, “until the.last Virginian Was laid in the graveyard,” his son would not have a chance at the Presidency, In this atmosphere was born of a the pursuit of government in one-half of the world totally foreign to that which ob- tained in the other half.

Monroe was with Washington at Valiey Forge as aid- ae-camp of Gen. Stirling. When the new Government was formed he recame a United States senator and later hi: ister of France. He was appointed by Jeffers u in 1803 to act with R. R. Livingston and Charles Pickney in the matter of the purchase at Paris of the Louisiana territory.

Ih real life good fortune comes not so easily But now and again, by the strange work: ing of that magical thing men call luck, a person here and there siumbles upon a for- tune in the most unexpected manner, One of the most remarkable examples of. this has just come to light in Paris. It is, of course, the dream and desire of every collector of antinques or paintings some time to come upon a find of great value and buy it for a few dollars. But to have this great good fortune granted you, and then not. even know your astounding luck, is the most unusual story of Mrs. Mary Louise Westmoreland, a member of an old New Orleans family, who in Paris just a short time ago bought for the sum of $12 a great work of art, which, according to experts, is i those fascinating tales of old Arabia - worth some $30,000. It is said that lightning never strikes twice in the same place, but certainly luck does.

On the Boulevard Pereire in Paris— truly a city where anything queer may happen— stands a junk shop, a small and dingy place, cluttered with such a medley of old furniture, bronzes, statues, pictures, ancient arms and the like that there is hardly room for a cus- tomer to move about. Even the low rafters are loaded with ancient things. Over one of the rafters hung an old canvas. For ten years it had lain thus, ignored and neglected until the accumulating dust and eobwebs of industrious spiders almost hid the porirait painted upon it. The fat old woman who kept the shop had forgotten its existence. From whence the canvas came she had no recollection. + . s ~ IRTY and worthless, it rested upon the rafters. A small portion of it hung town, revealing the head of a woman wearing a eoronet. In this position it lay, as it had for the last ten years, one spring day in the year 1924 when Mrs. Mary Loulse Westmoreland @ame wandering into the shop. Since girlhood, Mrs. Westmoreland had been interested in collecting odd and curious things—furniture, bronzes, pictures—and had a short time before this eventful day come to live in Paris, the greatest antique “hunting ground” on earth. At first glance around this junk shop she realized the goods offered were not of a kind to tempt a woman of her fine taste in things artistic. But she had the true collector’s ‘‘nose’’ for . finds and went thoroughly through the stock about her. But nothing attractive met her eyes. She turned to depart. As she moved toward the door she caught sight of the Canvas hanging over the rafter showing a portion of the woman’s face and the head adorned with a coronet, The picture held her attention; two widely varied reasons. First, and for because -the eyes and nose of the woman reminded her of her eldest daughter; and, second, be- cause the picture had that indescribable something about it which speaks from a real work of art. And Mrs. Westmoreland, while no expert, had an odd instinct which recognized this subtle sc mething, an instinct which had proved true on two previous oc- casions when she had bought very cheaply two fine pictures which later proved to be the work of the artist, David. Yielding to her hunch, or whatever one likes to call that feeling which moves people to action in such cases, she asked the owner to take down the picture. But the dealer was fat and old and without imagination. For ten years the canvas had hung ignored. In spite of the old lady's protest that madame would not want the picture, Mrs. Westmoreland insisted, until very reluctantly This was, ter. If madame really wanted the picture she could climb up and take it down—dust and all. Such things do happen in ‘‘Alice in “Wonderland’’——and Paris, In a cloud of dust the American buyer brought down her trophy. Full inspection showed the portrait to have a remarkable ‘likeness to her daughter. Also the coloring, so delicate, so sure, attracted the amateur art collector. So she asked the price, The -old lady was now taken fully aback. All her ‘certitude was shaken. Still, she decided to be daring. QIHE now demanded for the picture a sum fn francs which was the equivalent of - $18. But Mrs. Westmoreland, having braved dust and the standing upon a rickety chair to bring the portrait to earth—-having, in short, forced the sale in spite of the owner—now protested at this demand for someii.ug which a few mouents ago the owner had been convinced was unsalable. So after some little discussion the fat old lady consented to part with the painting, the existence of which she had forgotten for a decade, for the equivalent of $12 in francs. The happy buyer carried her purchase home, dusted it, had it framed and hung it upon the wall of her apartment on the Champs-Elysees. And here for four years it hung, this painting presenting the head and bust of a young Spanish woman wearing a red, high-waisted dress, the sleeves short and ruffled. a « .

The poise of the head and body of the woman was so typical of the work of the eightenth-century master Goya that he examined the painting more closely, his ex- citement growing as he noted the rough quality of the canvas belonging to a past century and the delicacy of the coloring of the features. He found that, although the painting had bene revarnished at some time during the last 50 years and bore evidence of being retouched by amateur hands, it was of such a nature that he pronounced it a Goya, and most probably a work of the painter’s latter years, likely some time after his great series of portraits of the famous people of the eighteenth century were com- pleted, Following the surprising result of the ex- pert's chance visit, other art authorities were called in to view the find. Mr. Sinet’s opinion was borne out by others, among them Mr. Purvius Carter, head of the Torri- giani Academy of Milan, whose restoration of many masterpieces in recent years has made history in the world of art. ‘ The announcement of the discovery caused great excitement in Spain, where the govern- ment has been for years carefully tracing up all the known works of Goya and has vathered a tremendous amount of documents concerning the various paintings of one of Spain’s greatest artists. Two noted authorities at once hurried to Paris to view the find, and from the design of the coronet worn by the woman in the portrait it is now believed the entire history of the picture may be traced. Even the name & of the sitter may be brought to light by the clues furnished by the coronet. In the meantime, at least for the present, the $12 \picture which Mrs. Westmoreland dragged off the rafter in spite of the pro- tests of the owner of the store will continue to hang in her Champs-Elysees apartment until the proud owner departs with it for the United States, where the number of Goya paintings is very small. But,the $12 picture has vastly changed in value, all due to the chance visit of an authority on paintings. The entire happenings surrounding the bringing to light of the picture remind one of “Alice in Wonderland;” and, indeed, Paris “is, after all, wonderland, too, The quest for treasure is one of man’s earli- est instincts and, though it takes different form of expression in different centuries it is the same instinct which prompted our fore- fathers to scour the Spanish Main and our grandfathers to seek gold in the Far West. There is for most of us today tittle chance to seek buried treasure or gold, and we satisfy that craving by trying to discover something which others have missed or failed to appre- ciate. At present the antique fever runs high, whether it be books, furniture, objects of art or paintings. The second-hand shops, junk shops and musty attics offer us all a hunting ground for books and furniture where we may make a “find” far exceeding in value the ei- forts we have expended, but the “bonanzas,” the fortunes of a lifetime, are being made in Europe by bringing to light lost or forgotten paintings of the old masters. Hardly a month passes without at least one discovery being announced. Although many of these claims later prove fraudulent, there have been in the last few years a surprising number of genu- ine old masters discovered which have actually sold for from thousands to hundreds of thou- sands of dollars apiece, depending upon the ee Ee ee geen LN ae e Ere ern ies SIS, Dat hi ¢ dvi ie ke ks oa sah Pelle € ald id ee “oe Puen fo * wees oe tp aba th 2 So a ve ane > > - [) i A Z 5 taal e one THE \ ie aes ae ; ST “ ¥ ; ’ : | | _ . e - — — a eR —_——_— ae Sr Q Y lide - me eee ee ens ee _ x N SSAA SSS x > Se ee a a a Te Ne ee , ; Tt ee hore Oe, eee ¥ee eo Ks a A i | \puhe? 8 pS: a . ry ‘ DAY, APRIL 99, 1928.

While perhaps most of the important dis- coveries of old masters are made by people with some knowledge of paintings, there are many valuable finds accidentally acquired by those wholly ignorant of art. Such is the case of Mr. Finnigan, in Dublin, who last year purchased the lost Romney with junk taken from the historic Kilmainham Castle, near Dublin. This portrait is of Lord Nelson at the age of 12 and has been widely searched for during the last hundred years. The manner of its coming to light clutched in the bony fingers of a skeleton whom work- men on the castle discovered in a secret un- derground chamber is more romantic than fiction. The skeleton is that of a thief who stole the painting and while escaping acci- dentally entombed himself in the hidden chamber, where he remained guarding his precious loot until the rotting timbers disclosed the underground roor to the workman. This laborer sold the painting to Finnigan for a few shillings along with other junk picked up in the castle and died before its value became known. Finnigan thought nothing about the canvas until he read in the papers an account of the search being made for the lost Romney of Nelson, which was wanted for the British national collection. A description of the pic- ture was given and Finnigan realized it fitted in a general way the old canvas he had bought from the laborer, Finnigan showed the pic- ture to a Dublin art dealer, who declared it to be the missing Romney. To be absolutely sure of its authenticity, Finnigan took the painting to London, where the same opinion was given and where a dealer offered him $175,000 for it. Finnigan consulted another dealer and decided that the canvas was worth much more, prob- ably $300,000, and decided to hold it for a bet- ter price, *s ne * * f Bahu years ago an original Titian, “Venus and the Organ Player,” was discovered by Dr. Otto Burchard in a little out-of-the-way antique shop in Berlin, Burchard, a famous art historian, recognized the Titian at once. After the grimy and battered canvas was properly restored, its authenticity was vouched for by other experts, The cleaning brought out the clear colors of a typical Titian, es- pecially the deep blue sky. At the feet of Venus sits a little Cupid and the organ player. The latter has a portrait-like. resemblance to the Infanta Philip of Spain, whom Titian first met in 1548 when in Milan. Offers have been made for other Titians as high as $1,000,000. In the same year a painting sold for $5 by the Dortmund family was found to be a genu- ine Rubens. Under several coats of dust and varnish an Amsterdam painting restorer found the portrait of King Henry IV of France and unquestionable proofs that it is a Rubens. Ex- perts declare it was painted in Paris in 1622. The sccond-hand dealer bought the picture from the Dortmund family for the frame and gave the canvas to the antique dealer for a * _ “a . . « = . ae .

These discoveries, made during the last sev- eral years, some by actual search and others by accident, show the great value of things antique in art. They are priceless and no defi- nite money value can be set upon them unless they are sold, which, of course, the true eol- lector is loath to do unless pressed for money. The sense of satisfaction derived from discov- ery is hardly less than that of creation. (Copyright, 1928, by Public Ledger.)

In this article, Mr. Hamburg tells you how to design pontoons for any model plane that you may wish to convert into a hydroplane. Next weck, he will start you building scale models of the famous Curtiss Army Hawk and the Ford tri- motor passenger plane, You're drawing close now, to the big Washington contest to be held soon, To be eligible for this contest, to get materials at cost for building the many different types of planes described in The Post, and to get the help of experts on model plane con- struction, you must belong to the Air- plane Model League of America, Join now, by sending a two-cent stamp to Merrill Hamburg, secretary of the A. M. L. A., Room 49, Washington Post Build- ing. oe ODEL aviators who are following The M Washington Post series of airplane model articles, learned last week how to build the world’s record model hydro- plane. Some of you, undoubtedly, would like to build a smaller hydro, You’ll want to know, then, how to design your own pon- toons, First of all, remember that you don’t need a lake in order to fly a hydro. Many builders set their ships off from long water troughs, or from small pasture ponds. Any little body of water will permit your ship to take off, No harm will be done to the pontoons if the ship alights in soft grass. If you see that it is threatening to alight in gravel or stubble, you can usually save it by catching it gently in your hands, If you’re designing your own hydroplane, or converting a plane you’ve already built into a hydro, you must strengthen the frame -—particularly the motor stick—so that it will take a larger motor, You need power to get a ship to water! You must two, or perhaps four, strands of rubber. Once you have strengthened your ship and added power to it, you must know how to design and place your pontoons, The draw- ing shows three general types of pontoons. In all of them—A, B and C—the upper out- line shows the pontoon as you look down upon it; the next shows the side view, and the bottom shows the cross section at various places along its length. ee eS ~~ from balsa, rise from add bullt The balsa, the pontoons—floats—can be hamboo and Jap tissue, can cut out of flat the longitudinal ribs can be bamboo and the whole can be covered with tissue and then waterproofed with three or four coats of banana oil. cross sections you The pontoons you design must fill several requirements. First, they must support the weight of the entire ship in water. Not only that, but they should be large enough to sit two-thirds out of water. Here’s how you can figure their size: Weigh your ship. Let’s assume that it weighs four ounces. Now, if your pontoons are to support the ship, the weight of water they displace must equal the weight of the ship. But if the pontoons are to sit two-thirds out of water, the pontoons (floats) must be large enough to displace water that is three times the weight of the ship—or 12 ounces. How-large must they be to do that? Well, an ounce of water is about 1 2-3 cubic inches. Twelve ounces of water then is 20 cubic inches, Your pontoons, to displace 12 ounces of water must have a volume of 20 cubic inches. If vou are planning three pontoons for your ship, each one must have a volume of about 7 cubic incacs. A pontoon about 4 inches long, 114 inches high and 1% inches wide will give that volume, easily. » 7 - * HE second requirement of your pontoons is’ that they must offer a minimum resis- tance to the water as the ship glides over the surface. Perhaps you’ve tried the experiment of laying a needle carefully on the surfate of the water, and noticed, to your surprise, that the needle didn’t sink. The needle was sup- ported by the “skin” on the water. To break this skin—or surface tension—of the water, you should make your pontoons V bottomed, as are those in the drawing. Plan to slant your floats upward at an angle of from 3 to 5 degrees so that they can ride the water like a boat, with the prow clear of the surface. The third requirement is that the pontoons lift from the water without too much suction. In the drawing, you'll notice a step in the bot- tom of the float a little over half way back. This step allows air to get under the float as the ship moves forward, and helps to break the pull of the water. In placing your floats on the ship, be sure that they are set well ahead of the center of gravity of the ship. You can determine the plane’s center of gravity by suspending it from looped cord and finding the spot where it balances. Then put your forward floats well ahead of this spot. You’ll be sure then, that the ship won’t nose under when it alights on water. You may attach your floats to the ship by means of bamboo struts. These struts should enter the float just at the center of balance of the float itself. In some model planes, you may find it advisable to set a float under each wing tip. In any case, have your floats set wide apart so that the ship won’t tend to rock from side to side, or—in landing— dip one wing under. * ™ * 7 * all three floats shown in the drawing, study the general shape—they’re designed : as nearly as possible to resemble an airfold (cross section of a wing). When the ship is flying, the floats, just like the wings, should have lifting power. The middle float is the exact shape of the floats used on the Curtiss Sea Hawk—a Navy fighting plane. The boitom fioat is designed for a heavy model—if displaces a lot of water. With these few general instructions, go ahead and work out your own hydroplane. Strengihen and remodel your indoor endur- ance plane and see if you can’t get it to rise from waicr. Perhaps you'll have to carve a smaller, fasier-trrping propeller.

As a preparation for that work, study the top and side views of the airplane in this drawing. These give you the names of the essential parts of a plane. The top view shows you the wing, eleva- tor, aileron and horizontal stabilizer. The aileron is a movable part of the wing. By pulling the aileron down, a pilot may tilt up that side of the ship. By operating his controls so that the elevator goes down, he can raise the tail of his ship. The horizontal stabilizer is immovable, but the air, rushing over the top of the wing, strikes the stabil- 1g gat EH EL BUILD!

The side view shows the propeller, engine, landing gear, tail skid, fuselage, vertical fin and rudder. The first three need no explana- tion. The tail skid, as you know, keeps the rear of the ship off the ground in landing. The fuselage is the elongated front-to-rear body of the ship. The vertical fin is im- movable, but the rudder is hinged to it, and can be moved right or left to give directional control to the plane, Study these parts until you know their positions and what they’re used for. Then, when you start on your scale model, next week, you'll be able to work more swiftly, surely and understandingly. On June 29- 30, you'll probably be sending your scale model to Detroit, to compete in the national contest to be conducted by the American Boy Magazine, under the authority of the National Aeronautic Association.

Thus the plane has the benefit of two motors, and the dura- tion should be approximately twice the nor- mal flight. This is entirely permissible under contest rules, the only requirements for in- door models being that the distance between the rear motor hook and the propeller bearing be not more than 15 inches and that the mo- tive power must be derived from the use of rubber strands. So don’t be surprised or hurt if your best friend hurriedly covers up his airplane model when you call at his home or if he sends out word that he simply can’t see you. The chances are he is working on a new idea in airpiane modeling that demands concentra- tion, From now until the contests start almost any strange maneuver can well be overlooked.

Like the National Airplane Model Contes@ which is to be held in Detroit, June 29 and 30, under the direction of the American Boy Mage azine and allied newspapers, the first national airplane model contest ever held in the United States was carried on in conjunction with e national air meet—the first ever held in this country. William B. Stout, president. of the Airplane Model League of "America, the nation-wide organization of model airplane builders which The Washington Post and the American Boy Magazine are sponsoring, talked about that first meet the other day, and what he said was a direct compliment to model airplanes. “That was a great meet!” laughed Mr. Stout. “Most of the foremost aviators of the country were there, and, of course, the field was crowded with spectators. “The names of the men who flew during that meet have now become famous in the annals of aviation. One of them was Gene Ely, who later was the first man to land on and take off from a battleship. “Another was Lincoln Beachy, who was to become the most famous dare-devil of the early history of aviation. Beachy was the first man to loop the loop—he was always thinking up new stunts to turn the public’s hair gray or at least to stand it up on end. “Among the others the most noteworthy was Glenn H. Curtiss, who had worked on the plane designed by Alexander Graham Bell and who had been making such progress with his own machines that his name was beginning to rival that of the Wright brothers. “Beachy’s plane would just get off the ground, fly a little distance, and settle. And every time it settled it crashed. Not that that made any difference to Beachy—he simply re- paired his plane after each flight and tried it again. Most of the other planes weren’t any — None of them could rise higher than 20 * eet “Then Curtiss wheeled out his ship, a plane with a terrifying motor generating 60 horse- power. He took off, sailed until he was cut of sight, then reappeared and came to earth. The. meet Was saved! “The winning model plane, I think, traveled only 90 feet, but it really made amore grace- ful flight than the big planes! Since that day :viation has progressed tremendously—and nts a little of the progress has been due to the extensive experimenting with model planes.” World Mark Is Standard. One hundred seventy-three seconds, just a few ticks short of three minutes—that’s the otficial world’s indoor duration record for model airplanes—the record that Washing- ton builders who are following The Wash- ington Post’s airplane model program may shoot at, William Chaffee, 15 field avenue, Detroit, is the holder of this record. In accordance with the rules laid down by the National Aeronautic Association for the Stout and Mulvihill contests, Chaffee built every part of the plane which won the record without help from anyone else. The record-holding model was an indoor endur- ance tractor, very light, strong for its weight, and perfectly balanced. While Washington model use the record as a standard, they should re- member that the record has been beaten un- officially move than once. A number of better flights are on record at the Airplane Model League of America, the national organiza- tion for model builders, sponsored by The Washington Post in cooperation with the American Boy Magazine. It is hoped that.a new record will be established at the national contest to be conducted by the American Boy Magazine in Detroit, next June. In order to better the chances of those who enter the indoor contest, the magazine has arranged for the use of Olympia, Detroit’s immense new auditorium. This affords ‘the largest flying area ever available for a Stout indoor contest. It is free from drafts which hinder good flying, and it is high enough to permit a model to attain a great altitude— which means a long time-consuming glide to the floor. The time of any flight depends part- ly on the plane and partly on the conditions under which it flies. The management of the national contest guarantees the best possible flying conditions—it will be up to those who compete to build lightness, power and balance into their entries. vears old, 102 Gar- enthusiasts may Fitting. “Fitting” is the term used for any small part used in the structure of an airplane.

This without training and wholly of his own wise volition. One day Dr, Waddell went on a profes- sional visit to Kaysville, some twenty miles from Salt Lake City. He took the twice-a-day electric train, house where he was to call, the doctor chain- ed Ben to the fence and went in. When he came out, Ben was gone, baving stipped his collar and decamped, Waddell looked everywhere for his lost chum, The dog had never before been to Kaysville, and could rot be expected to know his way about the town. Everywhere. Dr. Waddell sought him, but he could find no trace of the missing collie. So unhappily, the doctor boarded the twice-a-day electric train for home, On his arrival at his own house Ben came galloping out to greet him, Waddell did not know how the dog found his way home so quickly over. twenty miles of unfamilar ground. But theré he was, showing no sign of journey or of fatigue. While Waddell was still staring in wonder at his dog a man came along the street and stopped at sight of Ben. Said the stranger: “T see your dog got home all right. Tama brakeman on the steam railroad that runs through Kaysville on its way to Salt Lake City. Today this collie jumped aboard my train at Kaysville and crawled under a seat. Hle wouldn’t come out when the conductor and I tried to coax him forth. But at. Salt Lake City he got off of his own accord.” These are only a few of the instances which Ben gave of his strangely human brain power. He had the faculty of easoning out problems for himself with all the logical wisdom of a grown man. Almost never was he mistaken in his deductions. He used his brain and that brain was not the dull instinctive mentality of a stupid animal, but that of a°thinking person. For fourteen yvears—from 1906 to 1920— Ben continued to live in honored happiness at his master’s home and in the family’s sum- mer abode. Age slowed dewn his gay speed and physical powers, but added new luster yearly to his thinking processes, Then, a few months before he was 15, he died—of no disease excent the Incurable malady known as old age. He crept under a lilac bush in Dr. Waddell’s garden one after- noon. stretched himself ott there in the cool shade and died. The children of the neighborhood gave him a wonderful funeral, gathering sadly-to do honor to their loved old frierd. High with flowers they heaped his grave, and one of them -sobbingly declaimed a funeral oration over the gallant dog that had been the chum of the whole neighborhood.

And, lastly, have you ever checked up on his bill of fare and discovered for yourself what an able assistant he is in the garden, where the insects and the bugs and the worms run riot? llumbie, commonplace, asking no favors, Old Mr. Toad is in reality a citizen of no small attainments.

The Peerless Game Bird. The nesting season of the ruffed grouse is at hand. The sportsmen and the bird lovers alike pray that the season may be a good one, for this peerless game bird is so scarce in many of his old haunts that its future is a subject for serious worry, The two great enemies at this season of the year are ex- cessive wetness and forest fires. A very wet season at hatching time usually means a heavy loss of chicks. On the other hand, a very dry season is almost as certain to re- sult in outbreaks of fire, when young and old alike perish, Not long since I received a letter from an organization interested in increasing the game in their neighborhood, asking my opinion as to the introduction of Mexican quail, Hun- garian partridge and pheasants. The members of the committee were uncertain in their own minds which of these three game birds to in- troduce. I could tell them promptly that the Mexican quail would be money thrown away, inasmuch as they would never stand the win- ter at that particular place. But what a pity. that a foreign game bird should have to be introduced. The covers for which these for- eign birds are wanted are natural grouse COov- ers, and once contained plenty of these mag- nificent birds. Now these covers, sadly de- pleted, must be stocked with European in- vaders. Perhaps the above statement is a bit mis- leading, The foreigners will not occupy ex- actly the same covers, for in habits they are more birds of the open than is the grouse. But they will be taking the place of the grouse as the game birds of this section. What the grouse today need practically everywhere is a two to five year closed season, wherein to make a last stand and perhaps come back. Roadside Clubs. The Radio Nature League recently ended its third anual campaign against the tent caterpillars, which so long have been per- sistent destroyers of the beauty of New Eng- land roadsides. This campaign gave birth in one progressive little town to a Roadside Club, pledged to preserve and increase the heeuty of the roadsides leading into that village. Would that there might be a Roadside Club AN ANTELOPE PHOTO BY WMYt FINLEY. ON GUARD 4 in every town and vil- lage everywhere. W hat a wonderful work could be accom- plished? Such clubs would mean _. better scenery along the roadside, flowers and chrubs: they would mean protection not only from tent cater- pillars, but from van- dals; they would mean the education of pec- ple to an understand- ing of why flowers by the wayside can not be ruthlessly picked; they would mean chat rubbish dumps along the road would = no longer be tolerated; they would rnean the enforcement of laws to ° e prevent picnickers from scattering papers and garbage where they eat their luncheons, 1 believe that the time will come when every community will have its Roadside Club. When such is the case we shall have a far more peautiful landscape through which to motor, Is It a Snake or Fish Story. Here is a story which has just come to me and I offer it as a horrible example of what greed may lead to. The writer says: “One day I came across a spotted adder which had swallowed a toad and then tried to crawl through a knothole in the bottom of a board fence. When part way through the reptile had discovered another toad within striking distance and had caught and swal- lowed it. When I came along there was the snake hung up. It could go neither forward nor backward. I killed the snake and saved the two toads. How is that for a snake story?” I think most of you will agree that no fish story has anything on that. By the way, there is no such species as a spotted adder, so the snake is question probably was a milk snake. A Queer Pet. During the winter I had reported to me from widely scattered points the capture of grebes, which had apparently become tired in migrating from inland waters to the seacoast, and had come down on the ground, from which they were, of course, unable to get into the air again. The grebe, like the loon, must be in the water in order to get under way sufficiently to allow the wings to lift them. Their short legs are placed so far back on the body that it is impossible for them to @ PHOTO BY ALFRED 9.GROSS 2? oO. iNEPT. ° move on the ground in any but ihe clumsies® manner. One of these grebes, a Holboell’s grebe, fell ina meadow up in Vermont. The finder knew his bird and that it was a fish eater. He promptly bought some smelts and cut one up. Putting the bird in a tub of water, the fish was otfered it, and was scorned. Then an en- tire smelt was offered and promptly accepted. This bird was kept in captivity two weeks. At first it was as ugly as sin, and would peck at his would-be friends wickedly and swear pro- fusely, But in a few days the bird became as tame as any pet. It was kept in a box. Morn- ing and night a washtub was filled with water. As soon as the grebe was in the water he would look for his smelt, taking it from the hand and swallowing it at once, In that brief space of time the bird became exceedingly tame and when given its liberty on the river seemed loath to go. Those who are acquainted with the grebe and its extreme shyness will appreciate this incident. A Naturalist’s Question Box. W. E. Huntress wants to know if trout ever eat snakes. Yes. I don’t say that they use them for their regular diet, but I have had several in- cidents of the kind reported to me, and I myself once took a large trout that contained the partly digested remains of a good sized snake. “Does the American antelope shed its horns?” asks Frank Tinkham. . Yes. Although the antelope has a true horn, which the deer does not have, it sheds each year.

TTEMPTING to name the greatest ex- ponent in each line of sport may be an effrontery, but it is an interesting one, at any rate. A great perforraer who, perhaps, deserves equal ranking with the one named as the best may be slighted. His followers are certain to raise shrieks of anger to the calm skies, but the experiment is worth trying. Take golf as an example. In America it is admitted that Bobby Jones is our finest ama- teur and Walter Hagen the ace of our pro- fessionals. In England, where the game has been played so much longer, John Ball per- haps, would be placed at the head of the amateurs and Harry Vardon of the profes- sionals. Vardon was the grandfather of all stylists, a marvelously rounded player. He won six British open championships, an American and. a German. Ball, one of the real masters of the controlled iron shot, absolutely domi- nated things in his day.’ Winner of the British amateur title eight times, the open once, the Irish open four times and the Royal St. George’s cup in four consecutive years, he stood head and shoulders above the field. Grand players they were. But it must be remembered that theirs was a day of less strenuous competitive effort. Where they had half a dozen rivals to be feared, there are scores and hundreds today. So it seems to me on that basis alone the big winners of modern times must be conceded an edge “ ™ ve »® iy medal play Bobby Jones can not be ap- proached for consistency and brilliance. At Minikahda in match play last summer he was_ nothing short of superb, Jimmy Jobn- ston, Chick Evans and others who opposed him were shooting close to pat, but were swamped and overwhelmed under his ficod of birdies. He was getting home on 500-yard holes with an iron second. He reached the ninth carpet with a spoon, when no other rolfer in a dozen years had succeeded in getting there at all with a second, He dominated the field as no field before or since has been dominated. In American open championships he is many strokes ahead of Walter Hagen. He has won two and once tied for first, losing in the playoff. He has one British open and three American ama- teur championships to his credit, But compared with the professionals Bobby is an infrequent player. Hagen, for instance, is on the rampage the greater part of the year. He has won five professional cham- pionships, four of them in succession. Two ‘triumphs each in the American, British, North-South, three in the Western and Metro- politan and one each in the French, Belgian, Eastern and scores of other open champion- ships. In his only official match with Bobby Jones, Hagen swamped the great amateur under a 12 and 1} score. Though not the perfect mechanicél machine that Jores is, Walter owns the’ finest golfing temperament in the world. At match play he is unequaled. In medal play he is second only to Jones, So on the bulk of achievement it seems to me not unfair to rank Hagen ahead of the Wizard of the South. Perhaps Jones would prove this false if he played more frequently —but he doesn’t. There can be no question as to first place in tennis. Bill Tilden has no close competi- tor over the span of years. ‘True, he has lost some of the sting and accuracy that once characterized him. True, he must take sec- ond place to the flaming young Frenchman, Rene Lacoste, on the work of the last two seasons. but in the long run there is none to touch him. In ten years he has eight times been ranked first in America and twice second, He has won at Wimbledon and on all the courts of Europe. The indoor and clay courts cham- pionships, to say nothing of hundreds of in- vitation tournaments, have fallen before his racket. In sixteen Davis Cup singles matches he has won fourteen, his only defeats coming of late at the hands of Le”oste. Oh, there can be no dc~ vot of Tilden! N BASEBALL, Ty Cobb!

The first place in tennis is un- questionably awarded to Bill Tilden, who has had no close conipetitor over the span of vears. India is the home of wrestling. long ago Stanislaus Zbyszko was persuaded to Visit that mysterious country at the expense of a maharajah, one of the patrons of the game there. It is true that Zbyszko is coming close on to the 50-year mark, but his muscles are still enormously powerful, yet Gama threw him in 60 seconds. On the basis of his record Gama is probably the greatest wrestler in the world. He has never been beaten. We have no one in Amer- ica who would have a chance of beating him. Under a skillful manager he could make a million dollars in this country, but it is most improbable that he will ever be seen here. Gama, like his brothers, believes that he would be under a curse if he left India. He chanced it once, but he never intends to do it again. % cd 8 " DAS O’LEARY is my nominee as the great- est pedestrian of all time. Though well past the 80-year mark, he can still walk men a third his age into the ground. For 60 years he has earned his living on the road, and in his prime was known as the best long-distance walker of them all. He was the first man to walk 1,000 miles in 1,000 half hours. Under the terms of the competition he had to do his mile at the start of every half hour. So for nearly 42 days he never had more than 20 minutes’ sleep. A mile. A rest. A mile, another brief halt. So for 1,009 hours. To my mind it was one of the greaiest feats of endurance ever registered. In the most famous six-day walking match Not very Hit yj!

A ; Magic ring, whose talisman potency had been "proved time and again in the history of the . Wo family, reclined safely at the end of a dur- .~, &@ble silk cord about his neck. ~ But the ring itself was but indirectly the - subject of Wo Gee’s present chain of reflec- tions. He was sitting there wondering . whether its potency would be sufficient to preserve him from the hands of the Federal > authorities, in case he finally decided to pay Hip Ling the $400 requisite to get his two - cousins across the British Columbia line into - the United States, unobserved by the imml- , gration officers. Feats such as this were *- new to the ring, none of its tests ever having taken quite this direction. ; There was also another difficulty which, in itself, held negative possibilities. For, to smuggle Chu Ling and Chu Chang‘ across that boundary line (they were waiting even now, surreptitiously bestowed in an empty box car across the line on a Vancouver siding) would not be.a very respectable thing for a Christian Chinaman to do. This fact bore di- rectly upon the reputation which Gee himself _ enjoyed at the Presbyterian Mission. And “against that same Presbyterian Mission, of + recent -years—which is to say about three— “aven so great a god as Tohi had ceased to be : potent. - The first contingency, however, was clearly - the one most difficult of solution. And as its * possibilities began to impress themselves more clearly upon Wo Gee's mind, he reached ab- -sently for another dried apple, added a very * thin crisp rice cake, and munched for a full “minute while he counted the strings of dried --herring and pickled rats that hung suspended “in the front show window, without really see- «ing them at all. For the government—it was . known to all Seattle’s Chinatown, in a quiet though acute way——was listening with both ears to the subterranean sounds of Chinese smuggling. and possibly was putting forth several thousand tentacles as well. Abandoning conscience then, and other in- eldentals. the question now was, would the ring be sufficiently strong to encompass the entry of Chu Ling and Chu Chank unobserved into the United States, and at the same time prevent an interruption of activities in the Wo Gee Hand Laundry up on Pine street? It would be a pretty big tax upon any ring’s capacity, no question in the world about that. It is only reasonable to assume, however, that Wo Gee was able finally to settle all ‘these things to his own satisfaction, Because, . presently, he slid from the top of the tea chest. picked up a handful of dried apples end rice cakes in passing and, bidding Kim '. Loy good-by, climbed to the seat of the Wo ‘flee laundry wagon, and drove innocently up - King street. > Whereupon the “plain clothes’? man who ‘all this time had been leaning carelessly “against a telegraph pole on the opposite side of the street attending to his finger natls, *" abandoned manicuring, lit a fresh cigar and, = thrusting his hands deep into his trousers * pockets, sauntered leisurely into a nearby fan tan joint. Now, in Chinese-Americaa, when important business is afoot, you do not always, or often, transact it with the principal; you are apt to deal with a ‘“‘friend’’ instead—which is one of the many Oriental mysteries that our di- rect American minds can not be Made to comprehend. Following this interpretation to its logical conclusion it must now be set forth that when Wo Gee arrived with his laundry wagon at the corner of Ejghth Avenue and King Street, he pulled his piebald horse to a sudden stand- still along the curb and climbed down to the sidewalk. The reason for this abrupt change in plans was that he had observed, standing on that "corner, a friend in the person of Lum Lang. =>) Lum Lang was an American-born Chipa- +.-man too. More than fifteen years before, in *the interest of good business, he had kissed ~*his queue farewell, put on a suit of hand-me- downs and embraced American cigars and other vices. He was not, at this writing, con- sidered to be of very great importance in Chinese-American commerce. In spite of which fact, however, he did own a small tea store on a Side street uptown, where he dis- pensed watermelon seeds, kimonos, wind belis and a few thousand other knickknacks to Americans in search of Oriental color. Moreover, he was a member of a tong and more or less active in subterranean ways. Knowing these things, knowing too that some of them were secrets, Wo Gee did not indulge in preliminaries, After a casual glance about to determine that there were no other listening ears, he went straight to the point, ‘Tl no likee do this thing,” he said. Now, when a Pacific Coast Chinaman has cut off his queue and put on American’ clothes, and, moreover, heartily “has em- braced Christianity, he is an American, and “he proves the fact upon every available oc- casion, even down to the small item of _speech. Hence Wo Gee’s English. - *T no likee do: | Clistian Chinee.”’ ~°% “You hip damn fool,” replied Lum Lang, “who, despite his American clothes, was still ce at heart a pronounced heathen, ‘Him China “boy cousins gitty here—ketchem him job in —fish cannery, light-away-qlick—two dollah ,.day, maybee thlee. China boy cousins get ’m * lich, light-away-qlick—you savvy?” - Despite his predilections in regard to “speech, Wo Gee now proceeded to talk for “two or three minutes rapidly in Chinese to ~Lum Lang. This, no doubt, was because he . was so excited about his cousins that he for- -got for the moment his nationality, ' "What he really said, as it came through the interpreter in the Federal court, months ylater, was that the teachers up at the Presby- ‘terian Mission would not countenance the “transaction if they knew about it, and that, tin America it was wrong to disobey th® law Zeven though you did love your cousins, He also mentioned the further fact that the very “apparent activities of the Government offi- fcials touching the matter of Chinese smug- gling, was acting as a deterrent upon him, At which final statement Lum Lang broke into the conversation with a great snort of disgust, thus proving beyond doubt the longe- vity of Chinese mythology, even under ad- verse conditions, and ended by tapping Wo Gee significantly on the chest, where as they poth knew, the magic ring resided. “Officers no ketchee you; you no getty hurt,’’ he jeered.. ‘‘You ketchem him magic ling. Thing no can happen you.” “T not likee immiglation man, Him alle- iii Mist same sharp like steel tlap,” said Wo Gee , doubtfully, | Further and yet more cogent argument ap- parently being necessary to convince this skeptic and secure the $400 for his principal, Hip Ling, and his ability to build climaxes in the English language being less than it might be, Lum Lang proceeded to sing the remain- der of his argument to Wo Gee in Chinese. - ‘What he said is immaterial. The greatest . tribute that we can pay to his siren song is te disclose the fact that, under its spell, the eyes of, Wo Gee srew gradually vague and dreamy, as if ancient memories were being j te HUMMER LTO MOO YT ida brought forcibly before his mind, and he kept nervously fingering the $400 in gold which Fate that morning had tempted him to put into his pocket against this very contingency. And in the end he handed his four hundred over to Lum Lang who, in turn, would give it to Hip Ling, the principal, in true Chinese fashion; whereupon the miracle could be re- lied on to proceed to its final consumma- tion, Still in a sort of mental halation, Wo Gee climbed back upon the seat of his laundry wagon and proceeded humbly with his task of delivering American shirts. It must have been almost 5:30 in the after- noon. Relatively speaking, things were quiet out along the storage tracks in the vicinity of Smith’s Cove—quiet, though expectant. The hum of the distant city was barely audible. In the offing, small crafts nosed busily out from among the numerous islands and kicked up white wakes en route to their final mooring, blowing occasional faint, though frantic, whistles. Nearer at hand, switch en- gines shunted empty freight cars on to sid- ings. An occasional seagull veered high and quartering across the acres of anchored log- booms that lay asleep in the shallow cove waiting for the tide to come in and lift them. And, adding a final touch to a scene that already approached the pastoral, a swamp robin now and again lifted a mellow voice in among the alders along the main track of the Great Western Railroad, which, at this point, and for many miles thereafter, skirted the sound, But if Wo Gee. on this particular after- noon, noted anv of these things, it Was with a detached interest. He had carefully con- cealed himself between two treight cars on the siding nearest the main track, where he now stood leaning against the coupling, waiting, Ale was considerably excited; so much so, in fact, that he kept an agitated hand pressed continually against the magic ring to make sure that it was still there; for one of the heavy-laden freights that ply across the in- ternational boundary line was panting slowly into view up the main track. And then Wo Gee visualized, for the first time, a brown blur in the alder thicket that lay just beyond the track. This blur could not have been dead fern, because it moved abruptly, and so developed what appeared to be clothes. and a neck with a pig tail wound about it. Moreover, the swamp robins in this particular thicket had suddenly ceased to sing, The freight panted to a standstill; the en- gineer, long-snouted oil can in hand, oblig- ingly climbed down from the cab and went back along the side to inspect a rear drive. At which the figure in among the alders developed, as if by magic, into Hip Ling, slid across the track and paused for a moment be- side the locomotive. The significant fact, however—overlooked at the time——was that the swamp robins in the thicket he had just vacated seemed for some reason reluctant to resume their music. And then another miracle happened. Wo Gee, from his vantage point, saw the lid of the engineer's tool box lift and two perfectly healthy looking cousins emerge from under it. They climbed, with stiff movements, out of the box, and down beside the engine; and 2 Casual observer would have passed them unnoticed as section hands, and old-time resi- dents. because of the picks and shovels slung across their shoulders. Meanwhile Hip Ling having performed his function, vanished after the approved manner of a Chinaman, silently and mysteriously. He had. as it developed in the course of later events, handed cousins Chu Ling and Chu Chang a paper overstrewn with hieroglyphics. which many experts in time bothered their heads about. . That the engineer, returning from his task at the rear drive, paused for an instant to pick from the end of a railroad tie an item which afterward turned out in court to be $50, is an incident that does not concern us, though the Government made quite a fuss about it, even going so far as to call in experts to prove that it previously had been marked. The thing that does concern us—at least, it terribly, not to say tragically, concerned Wo Jee—is that at this precise moment miracles of this character ceased, and some of an en- tirely different character began. For, following the silent passage of Hip Ling out of the clump of alders, and but the space of a few minutes behind him, came three Government officials, with heavy-looking artillery disposed about them. These—worst luck imaginable—laid violent hands upon the newly arrived Chu Ling and Chu Chang, and took the engineer, the fireman and every one else within the radius of their view into forcible possession. At which act Wo Gee, silently and without further ceremony, slid into the smallest pos- sible reclining posture under the two freight cars, where he lay very flat upon the cinders and very sick throughout the region of his in- terior. The freight panted on toward the city, the officers as its uninvited guests. And, left thus to themselves, the swamp robins came forth and began to sing again in the alder thicket over beyond the railroad track. But there was no corresponding note of musie at this hour within the soul of Wo Gee. For Hip Ling was the possessor of his $400, and the officers had his two cousins. Never before, throughout long unbroken genera- tions, had anything so calamitous as this hap- pened to a member of the Wo family. But, bad as it was, suddenly, still reclining there under the freight cars, a vastly more disastrous fact rose up and smote Wo Gee like an explosion. The ring had failed! The magic ring of the Wo family had failed! At this revelation the breath seemed to go entirely out of him. So much so that he for- got, for the moment, the Presbyterian Mis- sion, and lay there flat upon the cinders re- peating frantically over and over again the name Amitabha; because when you are in danger or pain, and everything else has failed, this religious rite, fervently persisted in, brings definite results; and definite results were a thing greatly to be desired at this moment. A switch engine on an adjacent track pumped an iron nose against a string of freight cars and the crash, leaping into life, ran in a swift stream of diminishing sound down the length of cars and died in an agony of shrieks and groans, Whereupon Wo Ge sat up; they might be bumping his string of freights next. Anyhow, the efficiency of Amitabha was making itself felt. Beecause suddenly, like a flash of light, it came to Wo Gee that the Chu boys were not members of the Wo family at all; they were cousins on his mother’s side, belonging to the family of Chu, and therefore not of the ring elect. This revelation put a vastly different aspect i The minute it occurred on the face of things. to him, Wo Gee pulled himself together, began industriously to brush the cinders from his stomach, thanked Amitabha, and renewed his interest in life generally. . The mistake now was as clear to him as day- light itself. He had been trying to protect two Chus with a ring which never had been de- signed to protect more than the Wo family. No magic ring, however potent, could be ex- pected to protect sundry: ¢nd_ collateral cousins not of the blood; he could see that now. So, after all, the ring was not at fault. However, he did feel mighty sorry for the two Chu boys, who now would be speedily deported without a single opportunity being given them to pay back the $400. These things occupied his thoughts not a little during his journey back to the city, and up at the mission that night, and afterward. Now, the United States Government which, in affairs such as this, urgently desires to transact its business with the individual higher up, and does so whenever the slightest oppor- tunity affords, knew that the railroad engi- neer was only one of perhaps a_ considerable number of persons with whom it now desired to treat. Railroad engineers are, by nature and instinct, railroad engineers—unless they have been diverted. In addition to this fact they belong to the Union, and the Union ob- jects to heathen, of every complexion and form. It followed, then, that there was much run- ning to and fro by stealth of the young men especially appointed for such things. As a re- sult of which action presently—which is to say within a week or ten days—like an unexpected explosion in a fan tan joint, came the arrest of no less a personage than Kim Foy himself, for the offense of wilfully and maliciously, and with malice aforethought (there were many closely typewritten pages bearing upon the subject), smuggling one Chu Ling and one Chu Chang, the said Chu Ling and Chu Chang be- ing Chinese by birth and occupation (and much more to the same general purpose and effect), from the province of British Columbia into the United States. And Lum Lang, whom thev also. by routes not known to the general public, had discover- ed to be in possession of knowledge covering the transaction, became an unwilling guest of the grand jury. News travels with the speed of the wind in Chinatown, as elsewhere. Thus it was not more than a few hours before it was known from Tenth avenue to the ‘waterfront, and from Washington to Holgate streets—and even, no doubt, in Portland and San Francisco as well—that Lum Lang had given up _in- formation—although that was not their exact manner of characterizing the offense. It at once became inevitable, following a custom more or less in honorable practice these many years touching such affairs, that Lum Lang must be killed, because he had broken faith, become a “stool pigeon,” and thus had ended his period of usefulness. To be brief about it, he was killed: a China man walked up to him as he stcod in front of Chow Chang’s tea store on King street, at % o'clock of a certain afternoon, put two 45 cali- ber bullet holes through his abdomen, side by side, and then walked on into a doorway, up a narrow, steep flight of stairs leading to the fraternity rooms of the Hip Chow tong, and thence on into utter oblivion. Not, however, before he had been recognized by sundry and divers other Celestials who chanced at the moment to be looking out from convenient doorways, as Jan Gee, Sam _ Fui, Jim Dan, Chin Kee, and an inconceivable num- ber of other individuals. No one, it chanced, had recognized him as Hip Ling. But the dy- ing statement of Lum Lang, dragged from him at a moment when he was far too sick to pre- varicate, recited that it was Hip Ling, his principal, who had done the job. Now it will be seen at a glance that Lum Lang, having divulged valuable data to those in authority, became by that act an important Government witness in the smuggling case. His sudden and violent demise, therefore, was characterized in no uncertain terms. In- terviewed in the daily press, the district at- torney set it forth as a daring and successful act to remove from nis sphere of usefulness the Government’s chief witness and to fright- en and intimidate those other witnesses who vet remained within the jurisdiction of the court. A rather impressive institution, there- fore, was back of the firmly fixed purpose to find Tlip Ling and fasten the crime upon him. Now, even a Chinaman knows that a Gov- ernment witness can not be tampered with in this manner without some one suffering the consequences. It was equally incumbent upon those most interested to counteruct, in so far as possible, Government activities in this direction; the alternative being that if Hip Ling were discovered and proved to be the murderer, unpleasant things would keep right on taking place in very rapid succession. For the trail of Hip Ling led, with deadly di rectness, back to many other things which were better not revealed. Some of these contingencies—-not all of them, by any means—the friends of Hip Ling had foreseen and diligently had tried to fore- stall in the very beginning. Had they not all sworn that the murderer was many other in dividuals, in a perfectly confusing manner, leaving the Government to take its choice? And the Government had refused——which proves conclusively that you never can tell about accidents. The particular accident referred to was, in itself, most unfortunate. In the course of its activities the Government had pried open a certain safe in a musty upstairs room in Chinatown and had taken therefrom a docu- ment, later tabulated as “Government ex- hibit B-167"’ and referred to in open court as the “‘murder agreement.””’ This agreement-— or whatever it was—recited that a certain individual, by name Hip Ling, was to assume sole responsibility for the sudden demise of Lum Lang, the price stipulated for said serv- ices being $1,500. The discovery of this document by the Government in no sense ameliorated the sit- uation. In fact, quite the opposite was true. It followed logically, then, that out of these increasing complexities there arose in China- town a sudden stern demand for a commodity not easily available. This commodity was repeatedly referred to as a “‘gcat;’’ some one other than Hip Ling must be made to assume the responsibility. Moreover, the situation demanded prompt action; there was no longer time to pick and choose. Any one now would suffice. In truth, any other individual whatsoever—not a member of the tong involved—might have done this thing, ought to have done it, surely did do it! This fine point of ethics having been definitely settled, the only remaining act now was to discover the guilty party and “wish” the thing upon him. Over this important problem they scratched their heads and wrinkled their nut-brown foreheads for many busy hours of the night, down amid the dope fumes in the lowermost of the three basements under Kim Foy’s tea store. And by degrees the weight of opinion settled like the black shadow of the Hsi-yu monastery over the person of Wo Gee; Wo Gee should be made to bear the brunt of things. In truth, nothing could have been more logical. For was it not this same Wo Gee whose two cousins had brought all this ca- lamity tumbling about their ears? Besides, Wo Gee was a Christian, and as such neither useful nor available in furthering the affairs of state. There was, it was readily agreed, a single obstacle in the way of this plan. It was admittedly great. But then, after all, obstacles can be overcome once we have con- vinced ourself that the end more than justi- fles the means, Wo Gee, of course, knew nothing of these plans. So he hummed to himself a Chinese ditty on his way up to the Presbyterlan Mis- sion that Thursday night, and took—in pur- suance of a Chinese custom long established —-a short cut through the alleys. Because it was early October it was not yet mare {han dusk at 8 o'clock. But is was dark in the narrow passagewav between Madi- son and Seneca streets, filled as it was with garbage cans and huge dry goods boxes from the department stores and hemmed in by the gray walls of the ten-story buildings. Thus Wo Gee—to whom fate at this hour had given no sign of approaching disaster, as Fate is supposed to do-—proceeded up the alley wholly unaware of certain dusky shapes which, at his approach, froze suddenly into crouching bundles of brown excelsior among the boxes and garbage cans ahead of him. Until suddenly, as he went along, they rose up into animated swiftly moving shapes be- hind him: something resembling iron crashed upon his head, revealing a sudden blaze of stars which winked out quickly, and he went down under an octopus of wildly swinging arms and legs, fighting like a trapped animal. It lasted but a few minutes. There were six of them and they had nailed him without ceremony. But when he felt the long yellow fingers reaching for his throat, and knew with a terrible sickening fear the thing they. were after, he redoubled his efforts, called wildly upon the spirits of his ancestors and, thus fortified, entered the final fight of tradi- tion and a hundred unsullied generations of the Wo family. 3ut neither his prayers nor his struggles availed him. Presently he sat up and knew that they were gone. And he knew, too, with a thousand times the intensity of perception, that the magic ring had gone with them! Wo Gee sat very still there upon the sround in the alley among the garbage cans und trjed to reassemble his wits, But a species of paralysis had taken abrupt pos- session of him, a deadness which preeluded all effort at thought. The power of coordination had gone out of him, too. Mechanically he heard the throb of evening life hurtling along the thoroughfares the clang of street cars, the jar of trucks, the hoarse honk of automobiies, and the mul- titude of other lisping, sobbing, snarling sounds which seem to steam up through the pale glare of a city after the lights are lit. But these sounds drifted bevond his con- sciousness and were lost in the swift flying spume of nearer, deadlier events. His hand went hallingly to his throat, where his shirt was torn open, and fell listlessly at his side. The ring was gone! The ring that had been kissed by Buddha, blessed by Gotama, and cherished by his ancestors these thousands of yvears——-it was gone! He tried very hard to understand this. Not being successful, however, presently he got to his feet, like a piece of broken ma- chinery, walked out onto Madison street, and so down to Third avenue, whence he turned his lagging footsteps southward, back toward the haunts which, though submerged, were more familiar to his puzzled brain. And this time, without any particular reason for so doing, he avoided the alleys. As he passed cross street after cross street, still bearing southward, the aspect of the city and of the people changed perceptibly, in time appallingly. The streets began to narrow, and they were less clean. Morever, the buildings, though no less high, were dingier; they took on a gloomy look, at times even ghoulish. There were clutters of debris, arid sudden up- heavals of pavement. Presently, it was as if he abruptly across a dividing line of worlds. for he was in an area of narrow, dingy streets and dimly-lit alleys, sharp steep, dark stair and cellarways, which led, as he well knew, on to still darker areas, thence into a million mysteries that the end of time only might reveal. The people about were mostly men now— save where, here and there, a painted, tin- seled woman flitted across a street or through a Swinging doorway—men in the various stages of a conflict that seemed going: against them, ragged and disheveled, with faces seamed and marked, or bewhiskered—huge or dwarfed, of every nationality under the Shining sun, drifting, milling, floating like flies above sticking paper, or standing in aimless, listless talk, awaiting the slow evo- lution of events, no purpose whatever, thus early in the night. They represented a life of which he him- self was unconsciously a unit—the polyglot ends of creation, the submerged swirl of a Western seaport’s underworld, cast or shuffled or hurled tnto a partially inert mass, in an odd, circumseribed universe whose sun neither rose nor set, and where nothing un- der the night lights seemed urgent; a mass which, he knew full well, might at any mo- ment, given the logical condition, break and begin to move, without form, but with in- credible swiftness, in any direction, But in the mind of Wo Gee it was as if they were not there. For to him now, neither lime, nor place, nor people could avail. Be- cause Wo Gee’s hour had struck! Fate had spoken the word. He heard, and dully he understood. They would descend upon him now in force, like a flight of locusts across the barley fields of Sin-chu, and he would be powerless to resist—now at any moment! Chum Foi pressed a revolver against Wo Gee's side to keep him from talking. He held it through his coat pocket, but Wo Gee knew it was there. He could feel it pushing against his ribs, where the ring should have been, Chum Foi, avoiding officers, had slipped like a shadow from behind a tele- graph pole at an alley crossing. Wo Gee felt no surprise at this. He was expecting at least something similar. So, without further’ discussion, they walked, as Chum Foi indicated with the muzzle of his gun against Wo Gee’s ribs, back into the dimly-lighted alley, up a dark, nar- row stairway, along a darker, narrower hall, and into a room on the second floor over- looking the street. Wo Gee went as one in a daze—passively. Why should he not go passively now? The ring was gone. It had been taken from him forcibly, and for a deadly purpose. This he knew with a distinctness which, in itself, was terrible, By the same logic he knew that now and henceforth he was to be the plaything of the gods, to rise or fall or go hence at their bid- ding. To resist them would be vain, even foolish. Ringing down the avenue of time, through hundreds of generations, came the voice of Fatalism, whispering to him that this was the beginning of the end. And so he stood there in the dimly-lighted second-story room, on King street, looking dully at the heathen, hellish grin on the face of Chum Foi, and waited. He did not know what it would be like, but he knew that the thing, whatever it was, had arrived. “You go tellie.officers you kill Lum Lang!”’ So that was what it was to be! Wo Gee’s hand strayed aimlessly to the region of his fifth rib, as if there were a pain below his heart, and then dropped listlessly to his side. At which movement the eyes of Chum Foi snapped green fire. “Ha! Wo Gee no ketchem magic ling!” he jeered. “You likee have magic ling? No can have! Him allesame gone. Chinee boys ketchem him magic ling—you bet!” “You tell hip damn lie,’’ panted Wo Gee weakly. He was making his last stand, here in the dingy little room on King street, not only for his own life, but for the integrity of the Wo family past, present and yet to be. These things he knew with an awful distinct- ness. And so he stood looking at Chum Foi, and his eyes were gray-filmed with a sickness that seemed wrenching at his vitals: ‘You tell hip damn lie; I no loosie magic ling!” N hereunon Whereupon Chum Koj ran a. had stepped ° De A CR CP RU $i. ot as) PPP ERpe HEED at Des RS Hh Ps De M Fee its ge tae} HER bse ELBE RR aap oe Sh aR ee A PSE ated tay Peete AS eae | UE PERRET RR tt RT eget a Pees eepet Pee er aree TT Taree istidcabstil PLT ReSeRREE PHS or rt te it arr Petit tl 7 : EAE Tis Feb Sco tog Hite Hae RR ie ath util pe pl ai Mi A AM aii i ami it i hihi ili i itil A iii into a pocket, brought forth the ring itself, and swung it tantalizingly before Wo Gee’s eyes. At the sight of which Wo Gee reached out a weary palm to steady himself against the wall of the room. For the room seemed going round in circles, and the ring danced across his vision crazily. Up from the busy street the night voices of the Occidental City swirled and mingled in a hideous fanfare of sounds with this grim Oriental melodrama; and .the cluster lights from their posts across the avenue looked palely in at the open window and saw two Chinese faces close together, the one black, grinning horrible, the other an ashen gray. “You not tellie officers you kill Lum Lang, pretty soon by thlee o’clock tomollie, then Hip Chow tong get you anyhow! You savvy? Alle- same thlee o’clock.”’ And tnen, to make it more impressive,.Chum Foi repeated the fateful ultimatum in Chinese. Wo Gee shifted his weary gaze from the face of his tormentor; to look at Chum Foi seemed to hurt him. Three o’clock. That was the hour set. They had got Lum Lang at three o'clock. This he remembered with a curious, unnatural interest; and then his mind retyrn- ed again dully to the subject at hand. For a Chinaman to hear fated words such as these, when a tong war is on, is like unto the turn- ing of a key in the death chamber, with the hour hand pointing to the numeral 6 and the gallows waiting just beyond the door, for the tongs do not fail in their undertakings. “You writie him note,” persisted Chum Foi. And he thrust into the hand of Wo Gee a pen- ciled note of a couple of lines’ length, address- ed to the waiting public. “You writie him note, so; and you signee him ‘Wo Gee.’ You savvy? Allesame thlee o’clock. You not do’ Allelight! Then Hip Chow tong get you! Goo’-by!” And Chum Foi turned and vanished. Morning’ came yellow and lurid—at least so it appeared to Wo Gee. At 10 o’clock he left his room and walked the streets. He had not breakfasted. -He did not visit his laundry. Why should he? Instead, he simply walked the streets, thinking dully—in a sense, wait- ing’. The ultimatum had been complete. Fate herself could have been no more explicit. They had given him his choice: if not the govern- ment, then the Hip Chow tong. There was no alternative. He must think this matter over. The traffic drove on about him; _ people came and went, street cars clanged, engines whistled and a very great turmoil of nervous activities tore through the atmosphere. But none of these things impressed Wo Gee. Other Chinamen met and greeted him. He recognized them but vaguely, or not at all. For in the heart of this Chinaman, upon this par- ticular morning, the Occident and the Orient met in a deadly combat—-the Christian world, against the heathen. Already he was in the hands of his honorable ancestors, subject to the fatalism of a pagan race; yet he knew it not. In truth he knew but one thing: that he was trying to think—trying very hard to think his way through many perplexing facts out into the open; and instead of being able to do so; he kept hearing voices—voices that he had not listened to now these many years. Faint, very distant, as though coming to him across musty eons of time, they rose up and took issue with his thoughts, lifting themselves in argument. In spite of his efforts, a great bitterness against fate, against the anomaly of life, the Christian world, the Presbyterian Mission, and the oe which they had told him for the truth. And so Wo Gee fought his fight there in the midst of the polyglot throng on the streets of a Western city. And as he fought, gradually, through means known only to the Immortals, it became the knowledge of the heathen gods that those lowly followers of the Nazarene, who labor so valiantly throughout the waste places of earth to recover the blind in heart, had done their work in vain. For the heathen of yesterday, in the midst of a crisis, is a heathen still. It was 1 o’clock; two more hours! He turn- ed, and with a step that was firmer now, and a look of inscrutable resolution on his face, re- traced his footsteps back to his room. It had come to a head—the thing that had been hurt- ing him. He had reached a fixed conclusion. Going to a chest in a far corner of his room, he opened it. And as he lifted the lid its hinges creaked, as if it had not been opened now for three years. Taking from the chest sundry articles—an effigy of Sheng Mu, a huge, hideous image of Tohi, a cast of Amitabha, a miniature of Lien Tan, Altar of Heaven—he disposed them about the wall. The incense burners he placed upon the floor, filled them with incense and lighted them; and then, turning to a reading table, he gathered from it the Bible of the Presbyterian Mission, and lifting it to his lips, kissed it fervently—kissed it, and then turned and laid it upon the blue, curling flames of the Altar of Tohi! With a look of unutterable bitter- ness and hate upon his face, he stood and watched the flames on the Altar of Tohi crisp and curl its leaves! For if tha Christian God had deserted him—if the God that Sadie Jones had been telling him about these three years past, would stand by and permit these things to happen to Wo Gee, no other course was left open—he would go back to the gods of his fathers, back to the heathen gods! And so the ashes of it finally mingled with the incense ascending to the memory of the heathen god; and the voices of the Christian Occident, in the throbbing streets below, seem- ed to rise in a wild shriek of despair that went ringing down the avenues, across the smoking factory-tops, to fade in a simmering sound of wails and moans among the ships of the distant waterfront. He did not tarry long in his room now. A little more incense he placed upon the altar of Sheng Mu; and burned other. and different incense to the memory of the Wo family. And then, kissing the sacred scarf, he pass- ed through the dark hallway, locking the door behind him and made for the street. It was past 2 o’clock! Fate was leading him now; he would go to meet her. Down the dark hall- way the voices kept calling him—voices from the sacred Lake of Lotus, that lay just within the border of the Pure Land. And he took from his pocket an image of Kuan Yin and kissed it reverently. For, once more, Wo Gee was a heathen Chinaman. The shock of sudden daylight, and the whirl of the busy streets steadied him a little; these things seemed so practical. Yet his purpose remained fixed. Upon the open street he threaded his way among the masses, going aimlessly, moving without purpose, waiting, expectant, some- times listening. Men shouldered against him, and mechanically he got out of their way: vehicles bore down upon him, but he escaped them miraculously, unharmed. It was to come from another source. All he could do was wait. So he kept on walking the streets, waiting. Three o’clock! He consulted his watch dully. The time was up. They would meet him in some doorway suddenly, unexpectedly, as they had Lum Lang—and all would be over. Would it be a quick knife-thrust in the back? Or a sudden bullet? He had but to await the moment. However, a sort of anxiety began to lay hold upon him. What was keeping them? Could it be that they would delay, and that he would have to resort to the other alterna- tive? For, as affairs now stood, there was but one alternative. Presently he moved further up the street where the crowd was less dense, That MAHL OU genase MS RUE PTS A CP TYP S1UTEL GARR TDELE ARAN ate eta HH ae i Aan itl thought should have occurred to him before; he was keeping among too many people; even Fate herself could not overcome all obstacles. So he sought out a place at the upper edge of Chinatown, where the crowds ran in the merest trickle, and waited, walking about slowly. Four o’clock came and went; still the noise of distant commerce throbbed in his ears un- interrupted. Five o’clock and yet nothing occurred. He was much disturbed now. So it was to be the other thing after all. At 6 o’clock he knew this, in a dreary, definite way. And so, at 6 o’clock, he turned his footsteps back toward his room. He would have been glad if it could have happened as prescribed—that would have been much easier, far more natu- ral, He sought his rooms by way of a rear en- trance, up some open steps to a long, narrow porch cluttered with kitchen material and unwashed human raiment. His thoughts were introverted, so that as he went along the porch he staggered blindly until his stag- gering brought him abruptly against Mrs. O’Shaughnessy’s clothesline, strung crosswise between the pillars. The clothesline seemed to hold his attention; for an instant he looked at it intently. Fixperience in clotheslines told him it would have to be doubled. A smell of burning incense rushed to meet him as he entered the room, He closed the door behind him and was alone with the heathen gods. All his movements were definite now. Upon the altar of Sheng Mu he again de- posited incense and, placing still other incense upon the shrine of his honorable ancestors, went to the chest in the far corner of the room and got therefrom a box, done in garish designs, out of which he took many handfuls of tiny cut papers, of many colors and printed in miniature Chinese characters. These he scattered carefully about the floor of the room. During the process the transom hook above the door repeatedly drew his attention. He studied it with a curious intensity of interest; he did not remember ever to héve seen 1t be- fore. And now he unwound from a spool of red silk many tiny skeins of thread which he cut into even lengths, and, tying one end of them about the hideous image of Tohi, he looped the other over the transom hook to make sure they were long enough to fulfill ail requirements, After this he went and stood before the image of Amitabha. And as he stood there his eyes took on a rapt look, and all his move- ments were mechanical, as of one being led. ‘‘Amitabha!”’ he whispered softly. ‘‘Ami- tabha! Amitabha! Amitabha!’’ And he kept repeating the name over and over again rapidly. He was invoking the aid of the most powerful of all gods. The voices were calling louder clearer tones. They seemed sponse to his own cry. Almost could he see the forest-fringed lake that lay within the border of the Pure Land, and the Sacred Lotus bursting into bloom; almost could he feel the beckoning hands, A long time he stood in darkness by the open window, looking out, listening to the thrill of noises, the throb of Occidental life that drove through the streets below him. His face was uplifted now, like the face of a martyr, with eyes that saw beyond—trans- fused like the features of a zealot. ‘‘Amitabha” he whispered. ‘‘Amitabha! Amitabha!”’ A steamer blew a whistle in the offing; a freight train rumbled out of a nearby tun- nel with a sudden burst of sound, and a million electric lamps cast a yellow vapor against the black, flat sky, But Wo Gee saw none of these things, neither did he hear, for his face had be- come fixed in its expression, like a Chinese mask, Mechanically he took from his pocket the note that Chum Foi had given him, and looked at it. Following which he went out upon the rear porch and untied Mrs. O’Shaughnessy’s clothes line. But he went with head erect and shoulders squared. Officers Mears and Brannigan broke open the door at the request of the landlady. She had been hearing noises. It was 5 o'clock in the morning. They found him hanging from the tran- som hook by a double-length of clothes line. Still clutched in his lifeless hand were the ends of many strands of silk cord, which ran in a red stream across the floor, like a trickle of blood, to encircle, finally, the hideous image of Tohi. At all of which the officers marveled, ‘‘What’s this note he’s got pinned to him?” asked Mears, spinning the body about, And Brannigan read the note: “Let Hip Ling go free; I killed Lum Lang.

I have been hearing disturbing charges. Mr. Mike Martin, the trainer of the Wash- ington baseball club, states that there have been pitchers in the American League whose conduct should set them apart from the society of all right-minded men. “There was a pitcher in our league one year recently who was most unscrupulous,” Mr. Martin states. “He was throwing a spitter to our high principled athletes and we knew he was throwing a spitter, but we could not un- derstand how he was doing it because he never would put the ball near his mouth and he wouldn’t even put his fingers to the lips. It was quite baffling to our boys, as we are strictly law abiding, both in practice and prin- ciple, and naturally we had no background of criminal information to aid us in our study of the mystery. “All we know was that this pitcher was throwing us a spitter contrary to law. We asked the umpires to inspect the ball and they would give it the most thorough physical ex- amination and put it right back into the game. Somebody suggested that it was a dry-spitter, but our athletes are highly intelligent and they knew at once that there could be no such thing.” Finally, Mr. Martin stated, Mr. Al Schacht, the low comedy coach, felt that the mystery really constituted a challenge to him. He felt this way because when he was a pitcher in the International League, throwing the historic Al Schacht fast ball which never was accur- ately timed because it would have taken too long, he sometimes resorted to subterfuges himself. It should be understood, however, that this was before he joined the Washington club and became high principled. Mr. Schacht watched the pitcher and was convinced that he was throwing an occasional spitter, but he noticed that he never threw two apitters in succession. There would be, say, one spitter in half a dozen throws. Mr. Schacht then made note of the pitcher’s N= YORK, April 28.—Can it be that the vind yweryorypnee vemnaaz¢Rt aii Ait vrai imal iii il il i iui ihn ar aa Just before the pitcher threw the spitter he invariably wiped the perspiration from his forehead with the fingers of his pitching hand. actions, with a special eye to any special ges- ture that might precede this lawless conduct. He had read in some book that unethical card players invariably may be detected by some unnatural gesture. I do not know the name of the book, but it would be easy to determine that, because it must be one of not more than two books, So Mr. Schacht noticed that just before the pitcher threw the spitter he invariably wiped the perspiration from his forehead with the fingers of his pitching hand. “He would dab the moisture on the basebal! and then throw the spitter right quick,” Mr. Martin said. “Well,” I asked Mr. Martin, “did your club Hai iM us iHilth et mt lit Lijd i tii!

Weeks in advance of the buying season (and she wisely buys most of her things at the start of the four seasons), a plan is evolved on paper. She takes in consideration the ac- tivities of her life during that season and ar- ranges to have at least one complete costume appropriate for each activity. The complete- - ness depends upon well-chosen accessories. The wrong hat, shoes, hand-bag or stockings can mar an attractive gown, and the right ones can enhance even the simplest and most inexpensive dress.

This scheme, of course, is based on a domi- nant color note and varied with contrasting colors and shades. Thus, she uses black for the foundation of her autumn and winter clothes and varies it with a range of beiges and brighter colors. For spring and summer she uses beige as a foundation of accessories and finds them suitable as a background for the lighter colors of the season.

Not a whisper broke upon the ear to interrupt the silence of the place, and every one looked as if the next moment would be his last.

But her genius does not end with the selec- tion of clothes. She knows that, to wear these selections well, she herself must be perfectly groomed. So, she has her nails regularly manicured and, in between times, she touches them up herself, staying their growth with a file and keeping the cuticle in place with the blunt end of an orange-wood stick. Her hair is smartly and, more important, becom- ingly coiffed. It gleams with the luster of health, which means that she has not spared the brush and that her fingers nightly mani- pulate the scalp. Hher figure personifies the pulate the scalp. Her figure personifies the heavens, but the result of essential exercise and sane eating. The result of these is also reflected in her clear skin. Her make-up is discerning and discreet. She does not leave Nature unaided to fight the ravages of sun and wind and time, nor does she try to sur- pass Nature by boldly applying mascara ‘to her lashes and daubing her cheeks with harsh color, And, finally, she has not persecuted her feet with too short, cheap shoes and, con- sequently, when she walks she does not destroy the illusion of perfection by awk- ward, mincing steps. Thus, from tip to toe she cares for her person that it and her clothes may be adequate complements to each other, The Economy of Care, Another feature of the economy of Diane’s clothes and her air of good grooming is the care that she takes in keeping them fresh. The regular dry cleaning of a garment great- ly preserves its longevity, as well as being a hygienic nicety, She has the cleaner call once a week at her house, when she gives him a soiled dress or a wrinkled coat. A habit that takes but five or ten minutes each night is the rinsing out of the stockings of the day, thus preventing their life being shortened by perspiration and also insuring their clean condition when next they are needed in a hurry. It seems a large order, but, as she says, “It’s just like brushing the teeth—and it doesn’t take much longer.” Brushing her hat and dress before putting them away is another of her excellent habits. She never begrudges the dime that keeps her shoes shining brightly. She successfully resists the temptation to go out with a loose button or a seam that looks unsteady. And yet, she makes so little work of this grooming, always ‘catching the stitch in time,” that she can crowd more activities into her day than her frousier sisters, and at the end of her day look as perfect as ever. Little things, all these, but how important! Have you not noticed powder caked into an oily paste at the sides of a well-modeled nose, or a grayish-pink shoulder-strap (per- haps not really dirty, but soiled) marring a beautifully cut neckline? I repeat the much- used axiom of all our mentors, ministers, physicans, etiquette writers and the rest of them—it’s the little things that count in life, .

He it was who delivered the eulogy in the East Room of the White House. He accompanied the body to its burial at Springfield and wrote the hymn that was sung during the services. Dr. Gurley lived only a few years after this momentous event. He died in his fifty second year, September 30, 1868. One of the outstanding works of the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church here is the Bethany Mission. This was established by the successor of Dr. Gurley, the Rev. 5. 5. Mitchell, a young preacher who led the church successively through the adoption of the lim- ited term eldership. The Rev. John R. Pax- ton came to take the pastorate and spent four year before turning the pulpit over to the Rev. Dr. W. A. Bartlett, who added another mis- sion to the church during his thirteen years’ incumbency: Faith Mission, In 1895, at the termination of the Bart- lett administration, Dr. Wallace Radcliffe took over the pastorate of the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church. Thus, at a glance, it is seen that the number of pavrtors over a long period of years has been compuratively small. With the present pastor, the Rev. J. R. Sizoo, only seven or eight men have guided the des- tinies of the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church as pastor, from the year 1803 down to 1928, In that time, the church—from its humble beginnings on F street, to its present propor- tions—has ridden the storm.

It would be incongruous and offensive in con- trast with the new oak pews. A patriotic insistence from a feminine source installed it in one of the Sabbath-school rooms, where it remained for years. In 1893, Elder Charles B. Bailey presented the resolution to the an- nual meeting of the church transferring the pew to the church room, which was adopted, but only after considerable delay it was trans- ferred, and finally indicated as the pastor’s pew. The present silver plate bearing the appropriate name and dates was another feminine suggestion and persistence, and was placed on the pew through the generosity of Mr. Charles B. Pearson.’’ Among those holding distinguished posi- tions who worshiped at the old church were Judges of the Supreme Court Strong, Bradley and Harlan, and of the other important courts in the District Andrew Bradley, McArthur and Weldon.

So, too, Attorney General William Wirt in the term of John Quincy Adams, and Secretary of the Navy Dibbin in 1853. The celebrated Secretary of Agriculture, Tamma. Jim Wilson, was a pew holder during his regime of office that covered many admin- istations. Chief Justice Cartter and Justice McArthur, of the Supreme Court of the District, and Chief Justice Drake and Justice Joseph Casey, of the Court of Claims, were regular attend- ants and active in church affairs.

Ite twonty-year fight for water climaxed by the St. Francis dam disaster. the city of Los Angeles is pre- pared tc face the con- sequences unflinching- ly, but not to admit defeat in the campaign for an adequate water supply. The council has ad- mitted the city’s moral ‘esponsibility for the havoc wrought in the recent flood and has expressed intention of making reparations. While the city is considering whether a new effort will be made to impound water on the site of the reservoir which collapsed, prospects of lapping the mighty Colorado River have assumea a greater im- portance, If a dam at Boulder Canyon or elsewhere is autkorized by Con- gress, Los Angeles plans te drive a super- artery to a mammoth reservoir on the ‘tream that borders tha State on the east. More than 200 miles of pipe lines and canals would be. re- quired, with a series of relay reservors, but the total cost, running to many millions, is not d‘smaying to a city which has already reached out more than 250 miles for the life- giving fluid.

Then, under the guiding hand of the veteran en- gineers, William Mulholland, the first an- tenna was run out across desert and moun- tain. The Los Angeles aqueduct—a waterway of huge steel pipe and open conduit 250 miles long—was laid to tap the Owens river in Inyo County. But with the water that was found in the eastward mountainsheds came troubles ga- lore. The water rights in Owens Valley were purchased, but the resultant drying up of the lands precipitated violence, The waterway was dynamited many times in the last eight years, but it was only re- cently that any alleged bomb setters were ap- prehended. Finally six residents of the dis- trict were charged with causing the ex- plosions that diverted the water from the city’s pipe lines back to tis parched farm lands. The St. Francis dam was cnly one of a series constructed along the route of the aqueduct to create storage reservoirs. Its construction was opposed with deter- mination, though unavailingly, by the resi- dents of the Santa Clara River Valley. C. C. Teague, now president of the California Fruit Growers’ Exchange, was a leader in the fight against it. He is now leading the forces seeking reparations from the city. Each time its water system was disrupted the city patiently undertook the necessary re- pairs, and after the last outbreak, by invok- ing a spirit of conciliation and compromise, warfare of twenty years in Owens Valley was apparently brought to an ena. But close upon the descent of peace in the Owens River Valley came the greatest of all the setbacks experienced by the city in its ex- tension of its water system—the St. Francis horror, For more than 10 years efforts have been in progress to reach an agreement with the States of the Colorado River basin and to get the consent of Congress for the building of a storage dam on the Colorado River. Consummation of these efforts, it is be- lieved, will terminate for all time the specter of a possible water shortage hanging over the city, ending the water warfare that has lasted two decades, IYO NUNS U Leaf Ad ANAT ii ANKAH HNN ALi Ni Md Mi a Msi Kult iii i Hatdddt HA i Mt ili abit iil iN Ha i ail Hadi El hari iis ie el yah bee =: By COLEMAN B. JONES (Associated Press Science Editor). Washington (A.P.).—Look ,at the doggie! Little bear! The little savage! Such exclamations, drawn from fond moth- ers and pleasant callers by the behavior of young children, have a deep significance to Dr. Ales Hrdlicka, noted anthropologist of the Smithsonian Institution. Along with his major studies of the Amer- ican Indian and other aboriginal races he has been gathering data for years on manifesta- tions of the survival of prehuman habits in the children of civilized and uncivilized fam- ilies. Many reports have come to him from mothers, fathers and missionaries in all parts of the world, and he hopes to have enough evidence of this kind soon to warrant a book on the subject. Nearly all of the cases reported have to do with children between birth and 2 years of age, and the most frequent manifestation of prehuman habit seems to be the natural adop- tion of the quadruped mode of locomotion. With one exception, he says, thezo quadruped youngsters have been above the average in health and even in mentality. Instead of creeping, or crawling, before they take an upright position, they scamper about on all fours, with the knees usually bent slightly and their hands and feet firmly on the ground. They move much faster than their more usual cousins who crawl about on hands and knees. and, Dr. Hrdlicka remarks, “it is evidently the easiest and most fit mode of locomotion to them at this time of their muscular, ligamentous and skeletal develop- ment,’’ “It would seem,” he adds, “‘that there must be in these cases an additional factor, usually little Dr. Ales Hrdlicka. dormant, connected with the nervous system. Such a dormant impulse may perhaps be aroused accidentally by some chance trial, but it is more likely that in instances this impulse is stronger than in the general run of infants, resulting in the quadruped progression.” Other types of prehuman behavior brought to the atention of Dr. Hrdlickka are equally striking but perhaps less frequent than the running on American girl early began to climb trees, not like ordinary children with the arms about on all fours. One little. ox i's iy a: it the trunk and the knees pressed against the bark, but grasping the trunk with her hands and running up with her bare feet, as the native do in Australia. At the age of 7 she still favored this method of climbing and occasionally went on all fours in play, her first mode of locomotion. A number of children who go to sleep face downward, with their knees drawn up to the chest and arms folded under them, have been described, suggesting that at some period in his devolpment man or his prehuman ances- tors found it safer to rest in that position than to expose the less protected stomach. Some- times, too, infants whose bottles are too heavy for their arms bring up their feet to support them, much as young bears and kit- tens do. Dr. Hrdlicka has a photograph show- ing. a baby in this position and another of a kitten holding a nursing bottle in exactly the same posture, Just where the study will lead in the way of conclusions he is not ready to predict, but it is plain, he says, that there are many curi- ous and highly interesting manifestations in’ the behavior of the young child with which science is not sufficiently acquainted. A res markable feature is the fact that the peculia ities of behavior that are seemingly of at vistic nature, he asserts, do not occur in de- fective or subnormal but rather in the physi- cally as well as mentally superior chil “The intelligent mother, rather than t father or even the doctor,” he says, “ma render a great aid to science by reporti careful and detailed observations.” After 40 years of patient work astronomers at the Oxford and Greenwich observatories have about completed a huge map of the heavens. More than 15,000,000 stars were photographed and 30,000 charts were pre- pared, be assembled and are to

MUU UMBC UT Eee Pe ULM CORLL td ML ir Be auth i Ft By HAZEL REAVIS (Associated Press Fashion Editor.) “High Hat’ Shops €-ive Into Money Paris (A.?.).—Modern business methods and the press of itsiense competition are gradually causing the most exclusive fashion houses of Paris to accept as customers al- most anybody who can pay their prices. The fear of being refused admission pre- yents few private customers from entering world famous shops which before the war might have made their patronage unpleasant or impossible. The fashion makers now recognize and welcome the aristocracy of wealth. American tourists who wish to buy at the big houses obtain cards of introduction from their hotels or the travel agencies with whom they deal, to a vendeuse (saleswoman) at the shop in question. With this talisman iu hand, an air of confidence and an ample bank account, the way is made smooth. Without the card of introduction, unless the customer has a celebrated name, a dozen questions are asked by a woman stationed at the inner door of the shop. It is her busi- ness to make sure that copyists are net admitted to the sacred precincts. International advertising is bringing a new class of trade to the Rue de la Paix, dress: makers admit. Not all the old-establisned houses have been brought to advertise their fame, however. And others refuse to insert more than their name, chastely centered in a white space. One dressmaker refuses to ex- plain in advertisements his trade, or give his address. “People who do not know who we are are not the type of customers we wish.’”’ he explains. : ee Rubberized Jewelry For Modern Mermaids Paris (A.P.).—Necklaces, bracelets and anklets of rubber make it unnecessary for the beach belle to remove her “jewelry” he- fore diving into the deep. They are the latst word in rubberized accessories for the beach costume. There also are rubber handbags, fashioned much like the envelope bags women carry with their street costumes, only made of water-proofed crepe de chine to match beach capes. New Hats Utilize Old Basket Weave Paris (A.P.).—The basket weavinz of peasants inspires Mme. Jeanne Lanvin to I EUG MOLE as 0 A Paris (A.P.).—A Leda raincoat of rubberized crepe de chine in Havana brown has a lining and scarf of printed crepe de chine. The design of the lining is repeated in rain proof velvet applications on the outside of the coat front and sleeves in tones of beige, plum color and brown wit) lines of black. utilize fine, dyed reeds for the brims of straw hats. The Lanvin hats duplicate the open-work patterns of the country people’s weaving. They are unlined and in the sunshine Cast a lace-like shadow on the face of the wearer. Most of the hats are medium or small size. Does marceling the hair or expaosing it to other treatments make it brittle? A sensi- tive instrument, recently introduced by a re- search engineer, is said to answer the ques- tion with accuracy. It shows the strength and other qualities of the hair before and after the process and is aiso adapted to test- ing delicate wires. When telephone directories become obso- lete they are usually gathered and sold to waste paper companies for conversion into puln and the manufacture of new paper. They. are torn in two lengthwise, then chopped into small bits in a powerful ma- chine.

Censor Elders’ Books. Some decades ago the elders selected the course of reading for youth, deciding against this or advocating that, but always first read- ing for themselves the book on which they pass judgment. Life has not spared the adults of this gen- eration. Caught up in the whirl of living, they do not have time to learn what is best in reading, nor do they always have time to know what they would like best for them- selves. And so youth has in many cases un- dertaken the selection of reading matter for its elders. “We have young folk in every day,” says a. librarian, ‘‘to select the books for their parents to read. The father is fond of a detective or adventure story and the daughter almost invariably it is the daughter— has heard or read that this or that is good and takes it home, We supply many books for father to peruse and never see his face. ‘Most mothers like romance. ‘Poor dear,’ said one girl, ‘she can always forget the family budget when she ts reading of moon- UUM MLE RMR LM LA A LO AMA UL ALL WEES combination of rose pink and pale violet is fre- quently used in new evening styles.

What would you advise me to get for her?’ Occasionally a girl gets a book, brings it back next day remarking, ‘I looked it over and didn’t think it was a fit book for mother.’ “Invariably they select good, wholesome books for their parents. Occasionally a rebel- lious mother comes in, saving, ‘I didn’t like the last book my daughter brought for me, so I thought I would come myself today.’ But this does not often happen.” Tokyo Aids Laborers. In order to stop the graft extorted by labor contractors from the workers they supply to the City of Tokyo the authorities of the Jap- anese capital have resolved to abolish the system of labor contracting and have the 3ureau of Social Affairs hire the 50,000 or more casual laborers employed every six inonths for the construction and maintenance of streets, water-works, sewers, etc. ME VST LIEY ' its ’ Mea ee eprregeyr tid iii AW TTT TTL MMT iit aT eet | j * SG A ORAM nhl ls RTI A PMA PW TAS Ae Ur #; 4 7 \'M POSITIVE OF IT!

A deafening crash and grating sound followed, and the bow of the “Sally” plunged deep into the ocean. By this time our deck was full of people watching the giant ship being swallowed up by the waves. The fog was lifting now and the roaring of the fog horn ceased. The S. O. S. signal as we glided to the side of the “Sally” reminded us of her canger. The mighty waves were eating their way into her as we reached her side. A few minutes later the noisy crowd of frightened people were aboard our ship. Not too soon, for just as the last person was put aboard our deck the “Sally,” with a final toss, plunged to its bed at the bottom of the sea. And a few hours later we were head- ed for the nearest port to get patched up so as to continue our journey. BETTY GREENLEE (age 12). 5510 Thirty-ninth street, Chevy Chase, D. C. Current Talks.

Later, speaking of his victory, Dewey “This battle was won in Hong- kong Harbor.’ He meant that his officers. working with him at Hongkong, had considered all things which might happen and were prepared for exactly what happen. Every man’s opinions and plan given thoughtful considcration. admiral heard all of them thorough deliberation fixed that was final. He prepared not only by obtaining all possible information concerning the Spanish forts, mines, the tides and the depth of the channels, but also by tar- get practice and constant drilling in all conditions of actual warfare, until every man could imagine himself a veteran. After this preparation he steamed toward Manila. When Dewey might be said to have bridges behind him. He had to succeed because every in Asia was neutral.

On George's arrival home he did not try to escape punishment, but punished himself by going to ged with- out any supper. But when his father came to scold him he told his father what had happened. George had an experience in his first school which he never forgot. One day a new master, Mr. Pangborn, arrived. The boys, as usual, started trouble and George was directed to some task, which he refused. Mr. Pangborn seized him, whipping him ond then marching him home to his father. The master ex- plained, and in response his father said if the whipping he got did him no good he would see that he got more. This was the end of George’s disobedience. He later became one of Mr. Pangborn’s best friends. When George was 15 years old he was sent to a military school in Norwich, Vt. He liked the training so well he decided to try and enter the Naval Academy at Annapolis. At 17 his ambition was realized, as he received an appointment to Annapolis. After his graduation in 1858, when he stood fifth in his class, he was made lieutenant and when the Civil Wsr troke out he was put in command of the steam sloop Mississippi, one of Admiral Farragut’s ships. He was only 23 years of age at the time. During the rain of shot and shell he always stood on the bridge giving orders. When the Confederate iron- clad Pensacola tried to ram _ the Mississippi by a quick move he es- caped and sank the Pensacola. As the Mississippi ran ashore it was in range of the batteries, so he got the crew safely on the nearest vessel, and then set the ship on fire and to make sure he went over the ship twice and then escaped. In 1896 he was promoted to the rank of commodore. On the morning of May 1, 1898, one of the most remarkable naval victories in history was won by the United States in the harbor of Manila. The Spanish fleet, thought superior in both men and guns, was knocked to pieces.

Now it happened one day that my father was going to plow for a neigh- bor, so I went along. He did not think to take the wrist watch which I have just given you off and my mother didn’t think to remind him. While he was driving the horse and I was sitting on the horse’s back, the strap of the watch broke and the watch fell on the ground. I didn’t notice it because I was looking in front and my father didn’t feel it break because he was driving the plow so rapidly.

It was not long: be- fore my father came into the dining room with the young lads. He was holding something in his hand and asked us to guess what she head brought.

That, however, is wrong for even though you are a crackerjack at notes time has to be considered as that is the most important part in the history of music. Thus, 1 have tried to explain why the Melody Way is the easiest way to play the piano. GERTRUDE GELLER (age 13). Hine Junior High. My Little Old Summer Cottage. (Honorable Mention.) Where the rolling waves of the ocean Break on the sandy shore And the hoarse call of the sea gull Sounds above the ocean’s roar. have are Where the seaweed and the sea shells Are strewn along the beach, Stands a little old summer cottage Hung just o’er nature’s reach. It stands on a high, bold cliff, Where the waves ne’er climb or rise; Below it roars the ocean, wild, Above the sea gull flies. Without its gates all nature moves, But within ’tis still as death; No longer roses climb its path, Nor breathe on it with their sweet breath. The lilies in its once lovely garden Are choked by grewsome weeks, And the tulips that swarmed its foot- path No longer in beauty lead. 1 remember this summer cottage When its rooms resounded with cheer And lovers wandered along its paths . "Neath a sky Starlit and clear. Though it empty And its rooms are damp and wet, Within its once sun-kissed garden Sweet memories linger yet. now stands forlorn and Memories of white-haired ladies Watching lovers wand’ring past, But now the place is slumbcring, My cottage is at rest at last.

You know that saying, “While there's life there’s hope.” It surely seems like there’s no life at school. Just lessons, lessons, lessons with only something happening once in a while. Something is. bound to happen pretty soon; it can’t go on like this. Wish it would hurry.

She put me in her pocketbook and took me downtown. Her pocketbook had a hole in !t, and 1 dropped out, A thief saw the lady drop me and picked me up. He followed the lady home to see where I lived. He found out. That night he broke in. He was opening the safe when the pet dog of the family heard him. The dog rushed up to him and grabbed his leg and bit it. The thief kicked the @gog on the floor, but the uog barked very loud. The people heard him and came rush- ing down. The thief was caught and put in jail, and the dog was given a dark green collar with a gold medal on it. The lady is careful not to lose me again.

Danville, Va. Unlucky Thirteen. I had a longing for a pet to be my companion on my hikes. I had lots or dcgs I had befriended but they all had homes. There was Pal, a light brown dog, half Collie and half Airedale, and Brownie a small reddish brown dog. On Tuesday, February 13, I came home from school to find a white fat Eskimo puppy in our yard. My father told me it was mine. I named him Skippy and romped around the yard with him, but all things dearly loved have their end and so it was with Skippy. He died on the first day of spring. Ever since then thirteen has been un- lucky as far as my opinion goes. I still play with Pal and Brownie always hoping for an everlasting canine friend. Dear editor this is all true.

Whirling arounc he saw child dart from the curb in of an oncoming limousine. Without stopping to think he dashed across the intervening space between himself and the child, grabbed it, and had only time to toss it toward the curb when the ccr hit him. He felt himself sinking, sinking, sink- ing. Was there no end to his fall? At last he opened his eyes and found himself riding in the limousine and looking into the face of the most beau- tiful woman he had ever seen. “Where am I?” he exclaimed in astonishment. “This is my car, and you have saved the life of my daughter, my boy. I can never thank you encugh for your heroic a:t,” she answered. Jimmie felt himself carefully and, finding himself not badly hurt, he at- tempted to rise, but was gently pushed back. “I am taking you to my house for a while,” the lady said. “Oh, no! I must go back to Grandpa. He hasn’t any breakfast,” cried Jimnauie. “You can go back after you have rested a bit. You are upset now,” he was an- swered. After resting at her house for the space of half an hour, and feeling able to go home, Jimmie started to Icave. His companion begged him to stay with her and be her boy, as she had none. But Jimmy insisted he must go back to Grandpa. Suprised but touched by the earnestness and devotion of the br to his aged relative, she pressed a large reward on him, making him promise to visit her often with his grandfather. Refusing at first, Jimmie was at last convinced that it was perfectly proper to take it. Rejoicing in his sudden good turn of fortune, he rushed home, getting some breakfast on the way, both for himself and his grandfather. A few days later he succeeded in renting a much larger and better apart- ment nearer the avenue, and they lived happily together, in comfort, until the grandfather died. Then Jimmie went to live with the lady who had been so kind to him, and eventually married the young daughter. | DOROTHY E.
