SMITH AND SIMIMONS FACING FINISH FIGHT IN NORTH CAROLINA Senator’s Control of State’s Democratic Organization Threatened in Clash. PRECINCT CAUCUSES TO DECIDE SATURDAY 'Sentiment for New Yorker Shows Gain Following Fund Inquiry Hearings. By ALBERT W. FOX. Developments of the last 48 hours now assure a fight to a finish between the followers of Gov. Smith and those of Senator Furnifold M. Simmons for control of the 24 votes from the State of North Carolina. The candidacy of Cordell Hull, backed by Simmons and his powerful organization, is the wea- pon being used in the attempt to check the wave of Smith sentiment in this State. The crisis will come as early as Saturday next when the precinct cau- cuses meet. The precincts will choose the mem- bers of the county conventions and these latter will in turn provide the make-up of the State convention Efforts at compromise having falled, it now seems certain that it willl be a head-on clash with Smith's candidacy In this part of the solid South or Sim- mons’ machine crumbling under the impact. Until yesterday none of foliowers here believed the New York governor could have more than an even chance to cope with the opposi- tion in this State. It was felt that there might be sufficient Smith Strength to prevent any action by the State convention actually hostile to Smith and that the Simmons organiza- tion, which is supporting Hull, would probably retain control of the situa- tion but might be willing to so shape its course as not to offend the Demo- crats who are openly in favor of the New York governor. Smith -Sentiment But now, on the heels of reports con- cerning the visit of the subcommittee on campaign expenditures, the outlook appears decidedly changed and there is no longer talk of Smith having only a fighting chance in this Southern State The wave of Smith sentiment had ap- parentiy gained much headway before the meeting of the subcommittec served as a vehicle for advertising it Besides, the developments before this subcommittee are heralded now. by Smith men as insuring a rapid growth of the adherents to the Smith camp. In the first place, many of the life- long Democrats of North Carolina ap- pear to resent the charges leveled against Smith's following in the State on the ground that Democrats gen- erally were placed in a position where a committee of the Senate had to pass judgment on their honesty. Suspicion directed at Republican activities in na- tional elections in the past but the Democratic party, as such, has not been placed on the same footing. This ex- plains why so many of the leading citl- zens of North Carolina, when they ap- peared before the subcommittee, pressed for an answer as to who was responsible for the alleged charges which the subcommittee was investl- gating. the Smith Shows Galn. Tammany Plan Denied. Particular interest was shown by these Democrats in the statement that Tammany had sent to the Smith fol- lowers in North Carolina a plan where- by every county and every precinct was to be thoroughly organized for Smith Such organization admittedly costs money, so that the subcommittee naturally had an interest in probing the matter. The Washington corre- spondent of the Raleigh News and Ob- server had telegraphed such a story from Washington to his paper, but there was nothing to show where he had obtained the information... Ob- viously, the report was calculated to help the Simmons cause, for if Tam- many had formulated such a plan it would be resented by the Democratic voters who do not need any outside organization to tell them how to man- age a campaign in the State. The Smith supporters flatly denled that Tammany had suggested any such plan, but interest was intensified when J. S. Griffin, a former Simmons leader. of Raleigh, took the stand. He was active in Simmons’ campaign against Kitchen in 1921, and at that time there was a plan to organize the State which Griffin says is the exact plan now put forward as a Tammany proposition. The 1921 plan, of which the plan under present scrutiny is described by Grif- fin as an exact model, came from Sen- ator Simmons’ office. Source of Program Sought. This at once brought up the sugges- tion that some one close to Senator Simmons drew up a plan, permitted it to be described as a Tammany plan and hoped thereby to “plant” some- thing which would prove detrimental to Smith’s candidcay. In view of these developments, many of the Democratic leaders want to find out where the plan originated, even :f it takes a Sherlock Holmes to do so Most of the Smith witnesses on Monday were lawyers, so that the data which they hope to procure wlil have to be definite and specific to satisfy them. Walter A. Hampston, private secre- tary to Senator Simmons, who has been very closely linked with William Gibbs McAdoo's campaign in the past, told the subcommittee that he had “called the attention” of the Washington cor- respondent of the Raleigh News and Ob- .server to the plan. But this does not fully explain where the plan originated. according to the Smith followers. Any- way, the North Carolina investigation is regarded by the Smith men as hav- ing proved a decided boomerang to those who attempted to injure Smith's candidacy by’ circulating the charges which the subcommittee was duty bound to investigate. Fight Rests With Simmons. Meanwhile, Democratic senators here say that the action of the State con- vention last week is a blow to Sim- mons’ leadership because the senator’s appeal for a special extra-legal State primary was put to a vote and smother- ed by more than 2 to 1. Senator Sim- mons had told several senators that he felt certain his appeal would be. in- dorsed in his own State. After the re- sult Simmons said that local issues were responsible for the upset. It is understood here that the Smith following in North Carolina are particularly anxious not to embarrass Senator Simmons nor bring about the distintegration of his machine. They still hope that events may so shape themselves as to leave Simmons’ pres- tige in the State at its present level But they say frankly that the wave of Smith sentiment has reached such pro- portions that obstacles can not hope to check it. On the other hand, the apeessere of Senator Simmons will contin the fight 8 unless word comes from Senator himself to stand aside. Mott Again Heads Jersey’s Committee Trenton, N. J., May 22 (A.P.).—Sup- ported by the forces of Senator Wal- ter E. Edge, Bertram Mott, of Morris, today was reelected chairman of the Republican State committee after Mor- gan F. Larson, Republican guberna- torial nominee; had expressed a pref- erence foreState Senator William B. Mackay, of Bergen, as a compromise candidate. Senator Edge, who had prepared a harmony speech pledging his aid to the candidates, was detained by other business and was unable to come to Trenton today. LOWDEN'S NOMINATION PREDICTED BY MANAGER Buck Sees Victory for Former Illinois Governor at Kansas City. CORN BELT IS CLAIMED Confidence that Frank O. Lowden would be.nominated at Sansas City was expressed here last night by Clarence F Buck, his campaign manager, who said he was convinced Republican party leaders and delegates would turn to the former Illinois Governor as a presiden- tial nominee who could win in Novem- ber. Discussing the political situation with newspaper men after he had ap- péared yesterday before the Senate campaign funds committee, Buck pre- dicted that Lowden would have more votes on the first ballot than he had at the outset in the Chicago convention of 1920. With practically all the Republl- can delegates already selected, Buck said little was being done to line up delegates, although he and his associ- ates believed there was a growing res- ponse to appeals for a nominee who can win, and that this was working to the benefit of Lowden. “Lowden admittedly can carry any State, East or West, that any other Re- publican can carry,” said Buck, who emphasized that his favorite had demonstrated his strength in the Corn Belt, and predicted that if made the nominee Lowden would amass a total of 328 electoral votes in November. Mr. Lowden will be in Kansas City during the convention. He expects to get there June 9 and will have quar- ters in one of the downtown hotels There he will greet delegates and hold conferences with his ‘nanagers. Buck, who will be a delegate at large from Iiinois, will direct Lowden operations om the floor of the convention. BROADWAY LIMITED WRECK BLAME FIXED Engineer of Following Train That Hit Express Held Re- sponsible in Crash. (Associated Press.) The wreck of the Broadway Limited, on the Pennsylvania Railroad, at Dug- run, Ohio, March 30, was attributed yesterday by Interstate Commerce Commission safety inspectors chiefly to oversight of an engineer. The limit- ed was struck from the rear by train No. 58 and 78 persons were injured, “This accident was caused chiefly by the failure of Engineman Strasser, of train’ No. 58, to maintain a proper lookout,”” the report of the commission said, “though a contributing cause was the failure of Flagman Balliet, of the Broadway Limited, to use equipment provided for the purpose of giving proper protection to his train.” The limited stopped at Dugrun when blocked by a work train, the report explained, and its flagman went back a quarter of a mile to stop any fol- lowing train. He failed, however, to carry along his torpedo and fusee lights, and the engineer on train No. 58 failed to see the red flag, though the flagman threw it into the cab window as the engine passed him. In conse- quence, train No. 58 crashed into the rear of the Broadway. The engineer blamed in the accident was seriously injured. ca » hae See Se Sie See we wee Se EA is being served on the green lawn, nearby the band is playing, on three perfect courses a score of golf games are in progress, the tennis courts are occu- pied.

Virginia DLELZLFLIZTLILVID RITCHIE GIVEN CONTROL OF ENTIRE DELEGATION Maryland Convention Pledges 32 Half Votes to Gover- nor at Houston. POST FOR MRS. MENEFEE Special to The Washington Post. Baltimore, Md., May 22.—Gov. Albert C. Ritchie, three-term governor of Maryland, was today indorsed by Mary- land Democrats, a second time in State convention, for the party's nomi- nation for President. The convention adopted the unit rule to govern the delegation at Houston, so that the governor will be in absolute control of the 32 delegates, each of whom has half a vote. The committee was au- thorized to make arrangements for headquarters for the governor's cam- paign at Houston. When the 147 delegates to the State convention, held in the Maryland Theater, had completed their work and shouted themselves hoarse for Ritchie, the Houston delegation picked a na- tional committeeman and a national committeewoman for the next four years. Howard Bruce, of Elk Ridge, was reelected committeeman, and Mrs Elizabeth R. Menefee, Cumberland, was given the other post. A predicted fight over the naming of a national committeewoman failed to materialize. First the leaders took one of the candidates, Mrs. B Ashby Lea- vell, of Chevy Chase, out of the run- ning by making her a member of the Houston delegation. When that group met today, William Curran city dele- gate asked that the city members be given an opportunity to confer on whom they would support, adding “we have been pulled and pushed back and forth and don’t know where we stand.” After a brief consultation, the city men decided upon Mrs. Menefee, but Magistrate John T. Tormollan an- nounced that “as the city ladies have not been able to agree upon any can- didate, the city delegation will make no nomination,” The delegates to the national con- vention is composed as follows; Delegates at larga: Gov. Ritchie, Sen- ator Millard E. Tyaings, Havre de Grace; Howard Bruce, national com- mitteeman, Elk Ridge; J, Enos Ray, State chairman, Chillum; Thomas Robinson, attorney general, Belair; Howard W.

FEW COUNTS REPORTED _—_—_——- Pierre, 8S. Dak., May 22 (A.P.).—Un- opposed slates of delegates and alter- nates to the Republican and Demo- cratic presidential conventions were elected in today’s statewide primary in South Dakota. While they are not legally bound to do so, according to party leaders here, they are expected to abide by the action of the recent State conventions in supporting Frank O. Lowden and Gov. Smith for the nominations. Both of the State’s United States senators—Norbeck and McMaster—are among the thirteen Republican dele- gates, while Gov. W. J. Bulow is in- cluded in the Democratic list of ten delegates. What little interest was evident in the election concerned local contests and the Republican congressional races in the First and Third districts. Rep- resentative Christopherson was opposed by Charles Weller and Henry Bormann in the First, and Representative Will- lamson had Francis Case as an oppo- nent for renomination in the Third. Christopherson received 3,319 votes, Weller 1,945, and Bormann 723 votes in 91 precincts of the First District’s 497. reports tonight showed. In the Third District Williamson received 1,159 votes to 271 for his opponent, Case, in the first 15 precincts reporting. Republican, Democratic and Farmer- Labor parties named State party chair- men, and the first two also selected national committeemen.

The Senate and House are going for- ward with the Muscle Shoals bill with the apparent conviction that President Cool- idge will sign it. His opposition to plac- ing the Government in business makes it impossible for him to approve the Muscle Shoals bill. | This measure as drawn sets up a Gov- | ernment corporation to sell power and fertilizer, both in competition with private business. The Government cor- poration is to be given a plant costing $150,000,000, together with $10,000,000 as working capital. It is to be exempt from national, State and local taxes; it will not be required to pay interest on the amount invested, or to provide a sinking fund to meet depreciation and replace- ment. It will not have to make a profit. Thus it is given advantages over private competitors that will ruin them. worth of public property and devoting it to the interest of selected classes of citi- zens at the expense of all taxpayers, the bill allofs $2,000,000 of the $10,000,000 cash appropriation to begin construction of still another power plant at Cove Creek, Tenn., under the pretense of safe- guarding the national defense and pre- | venting floods. The cost of this plant will be about $40,000,000. This is a bald and shameless abstraction of public money ‘for sectional purposes, under false and fraudulent pretexts that make a mockery of law and justice. Congress has just en- acted a flood control bill that provides for surveys of tributaries of the Missis- sippi with a view to ultimate flood con- trol. Without study, without proof that Cove Creek contributes to the Mississippi floods, it:is proposed to spend $40,000,000 there, with the probability that later sur- veys will show that a dam is unnecessary. The communistic sponsors of this bill, in order to commit the Government to private enterprise, have accepted vicious and costly amendments which call for vast expenditures by a corporation whose officers will not be under the contro] of the President or the head of any executive department. This corporation would have a swarm of employes, paid by the United States Treasury. The opportu- nities for graft created by this bill are such as to make it certain that enormous sums would be plundered from the Na- tion’s taxpayers. : The bill provides that this Government corporation shall have power to take and use all patented formulas, methods and information desired, and to pay to owners of patents whatever is deemed reasonable by the corporation. If a patentee feels that he is robbed, he is granted the privi- lege of appealing to the Court of Ciaims for relief.

THE COSTLY SESQUI. ’ Philadelphia has just learned how much the enthusiasm with which it entered the Sesqui- centennial is going to cost it. The report of the receivers placed in charge of the exposi- tion following its demise has just been filed. There remains a balance of $170,168 ‘to be applied on debts totaling $5,501,000. Unless the validity of the council appropriation to _mhéet the deficit wins in the courts the creditors ef the exposition will have to be satisfied with 4 settlement of 3 cents on the dollar. The margin between hope and actuality in such a venture may be judged by the tact hat it was estimated that $10,000,000 was pent in the construction of the Sesquicen- , D al and that only $635,387 was realizeu in ey o * it * eA, = are : b took more than half that sum, leaving the pitiful net Jalance, | 3 The lesson learned in Philadelphia ought to do much to curb civic enthusiasm for similar ventures..

The age of the exposition has gone into the past with the horse, and it is not likely to return, PRYING INTO PRIVATE AFFAIRS. Republican leaders in the Senate with the aid of Vice President Dawes succeeded in “keeping the tax reduction bill within the bounds set by the financial authorities of the Government. The measure as it goes to con- ference is only $4,000,000 above the mark set by Secretary Mellon. The problem now is to iron out the differences between the House and Senate in conference. A way must be found to reach a com@romise between the views of the two houses, which vary more than $84,000,000 in their tax reduction pro- posals, In addition to this disparity there is one other important question to be settled. The Senate, at the instance of Senator Norris, amended the bill to provide once more for publicity on income tax returns. Senator Smoot did not, as was anticipated, move to re- consider this vote, which was taken when a bare majority of senators were present. He hopes to eliminate the amendment in confer- ence, The conferees should make short work oft this amendment. The Nation has had one dose of snooping into tax returns and wants no more of it. The practice of throwing open income tax payments served no legitimate pur- pose. The benefits went to persons who made Shady use of the information so obtained. Business heads and individuals were subjected to criticism which was not deserved since it never to determine from the total tax paid the circumstances under which the figure had been reached. The demand of vulgar curiosity is not suf- ficient excuse for making public income tax returns. The fact that a citizen contributes to the support of should not make his affairs the property of snoopers and blackmailers. The pledge of secrecy which the Government gave at the time the income tax was possible his Government oS Ape a’ , : ; THE law was passed should be observed. There is much interference with private affairs already, without adding this amendment. too KILLINGS BY DRY AGENTS. | causes of paresis and locomotor ataxia. Although the Senate committee on com- ' merce has tentatively decided to take no steps Not content with taking $150,000,000 | toward investigating the shooting of a citizen of Niagara Falls by men of the Coast Guard, some of the members of the House are de- termined that the affair shall be made the subject of a searching investigation. Several resolutions to this end have been introduced and referred to the committee on rules, whiich appears disposed to await the result of the trial of the accused before taking cognizance of the affair. In the meantime Representative Mead, of Buffalo, has presented several of the casualties that have resulted reckless acts of dry agents. The Volstead act became effective January 16, 1920, and in that year one person, woman, was killed by prohibition officers. In 1921 six persons killed, followed by eighteen in 1922. Twenty-two persons were either killed outright or fatally injured by these guardians of the law in 1923, and only fifteen in 1924. The number rose to 24 in 1925, only to fall to 13 in the following year. In 1927 24 malefactors fell before the gun- fire of the agents. Up to May 15, 1928, which is the latest date for which figures are avail- able, there have been only four killings by enforcement officers during the present vear. During the same period the Coast Guard has not been idle. The records divulge that seventeen men who failed to “heave to,” or in other ways resisted arrest, fell before the artillery of that branch of ‘the law-enforce- ment division of the Treasury Department. From the date of the national prohibition act 49 prohibition officers and 2 of the nar- cotic squad have fallen victims to the guns of the lawbreakers, besides 25 officers of the customs service killed or wounded .in the per- formance of their duties in the suppression of smuggling. It is rather remarkable that although the official killers were Known in almost every instance, there has not been a single convic- tion on a charge of first degree murder brought against any official. This fact impels the rep- resentatives from New York to insist that the latest wanton shooting shall be made the sub- ject of a searching inquiry by elther the House or the Senate. lists from a wefre RAIL MERGERS HELD UP. It becomes increasingly obvious that with- out some further mandate from Congress the Interstate Commerce Commission will be seri- ously handieapped if not entirely stopped from carrying out any comprehensive plan for the consolidation of the railroads. In two re- cent decisions the commission has both ad- vanced and retarded the plan of unification upon which the railroads have” been working. The commission’s interpretation of the exist- ing law leads to such contradictions. Clarifi- cation of the statutes as proposed in the Parker bill would do much to assist the com- missioners in their task, One of the most recent orders of the com- mission puts its approval upon the merger of the Chesapeake & Ohio and the Pere Mar- quette, but denies to the Van Sweringens the right to ‘bring the Erie into this system. Pro- vided the promoters of the new grouping are able to carry out the plan to which the com- mission has given approval, the Chesapeake & Ohio will be at the head of a new system, reaching from Washington and Virginia coast points toward Chicago and into Michigan. At the same time the failure to permit inclusion of the Erie presents seeming difficulties to the four-system plan of consolidation on which the railroad executives of the East have been at work for the past year or two. These difficulties are increased by another ruling of the commission which orders the Baltimore & Ohio, New York Central and Nickel Plate to show cause why they should not be adjudged to have violated the antitrust laws in their acquisition of the stock of the Wheeling & Lake Erie. In this case the commission frowns upon the control by the big Eastern systems of a road that is vital to any™: ' combating the South American variety. | chose the Gold scheme of consolidation.

The element of competition was not involv- ed in the decision respecting the Chesapeake & Ohio and Pere Marquette merger. The commission found that there was no objection from the transportation standpoint against such a union. It was of the opinion that the traffic of the two roads was supplementary. This same condition does not hold true threughout the Eastern railroad field. The plans of consolidation that have been put for- ward so far do not pretend to retain all of thé competitive features that now exist, but it has been contended that economy of operation and the strict regulation to which the railroads are now subjected will be sufficient guarantee to the public. It seems to be almost certain on the basis of known facts that consolidation is not as near at hapd as was believed to be the case when the railroads a few weeks ago reached agreement among themselves. The majority of the commission evidently still feel that more explicit authority is needed from Congress to carry out the suggestions made in the trans- portation act. The benefits possible under re- grouping are so manifest that Congress should give serious attention to the problem. Its committees have devoted several years to the perfection of the pending legislation, Serious effort should be made to bring about its en- actment into law. ~ HE DIED FOR MANKIND, The world has lost another hero in the death of Prof. Hideyo Noguchi, of the Rocke- feller Institute for Medical Research, of African The scientist, follower a vic- tim yellow fever.

The indiscriminate use of guns by officers of the law is often dangerous to the public. Such danger usually arises without the slightest warning, and the innocent by- stander suffers his proverbial fate. The recent instance in Washington in which two boys were wounded by shots fired from a policeman’s gun is by no means isolated. Similar happenings are recorded daily in dif- ferent parts of the country. Overzealous offi- cers should be made to realize that they can not escape the responsibility for such acts. The rule is almost general that law enforce- ment agents are armed to protect their own lives and to apprehend those who have com- mitted a felony. The precept is more honored in the breach than the observance. Persons suspected of minor crimes are made the delib- erate target of the agents of the law. Where marksmanship is bad inoffensive citizens are the victims. The usual explanation is that the policeman “thought” the fleeing man was going to pull a gun or that he made a motion toward his hip pocket. It develops in many cases that the prisoner or suspect was not even armed. _Ir- responsible shooting in the name of law and order can not .be condoned. WAR GASES. What is Germany doing with a supply of poison gas big enough to threaten the very existence of a city as large as Hamburg? Is she dodging the Versailles Treaty or is she not? asks the New York Evening Post. We hope devoutly that these searching questions. will be asked and investigated by the govern- ments of the former allies. Meanwhile it is an act of fate that Germany, the introducer of war gases, should be the first to have one of her own cities laid waste by the deadly phosgene as cities will be laid waste by it in the next war.

Now we see the leaders and sentatives of the party claiming to in- herit and express the theories of Jef- ferson increasing the power of the central Government, Democracy,” of all foundation Democracy. sonian theory was repre- foremost in porting measures of socialism, precisely opposed to individualism, seeking eag- erly to exchange the sovereignty independence of the States for the tral Government’s dollars. We behold the most absurdly incon- gruous alliance of all political history. Members of Congress calling them- selves Democrats, supposed to inherit and illustrate the sturdy American tra- ditions of self-dependence and self-re- liance, unite with “progressives,” many of whom are of recent European ex- traction and inherit traditions of dependence on government for nurs- ing, support and protection. Demua crats long fought the protective tariff bitterly on the ground that enterprises not compete successfully with foreigners had not the right to live. As late as 1892 they conceded Only so far as “tariff for revenue with ineidental protection.” Now their pro- test against protection Is the feeblest of whimpers and they demand not only protection, but regulation and virtual bunus for the farming industry. The kernel of the Jefferson theory was the danger that if the power of the central Government was increased a man or party presently would estab- lish such dominance as to create a vir- tual despotism and make elections mere forms and farces. Patrick Henry in the Virginia convention of 1788 op- posed strenuously ratification of the Constitution, declaring, with horror, that it actually would give the Federal Government the right to impose inter- nal revenue taxes and send agents to search the home of a citizen for un- taxed liquor. Jefferson, a short while before his death, wailed that the Gov- ernment was going so far as to send its agents to cut down mountain sides and divert the courses of streams on the sacred soil of States on pretext of mak- ing post roads and canals. Now, we have the prohibition law, supported by so-called Democrats, un- der which thousands of Federal agents swarm over the country, searching homes, vehicles, persons, sealing places ot business, shooting inoffensive citi- zens on public highways and the coasts. If the coalition of alleged Democrats and progressives in Congress could pre- -vail we would have the Government controlling every horsepower, land and sea transportation, fuel and oil sup- plies, telegraph, telephone, radio, all | means of communicawion, and regulat- ing the output of the farms and prices of all we eat and wear. The same Gov- ernment would be given exclusive con- trol of the Mississippi and. tributaries, the States, by refusal to contribute to the cost, surrendering all voice in work and management, becoming subjects and beneficiaries. All this would mean millions of men and women agents and servants of the central Government, intruding every hour of day and night on the most intimate affairs of the cities and the home, making the Gov- ernment’s power felt with every breath we draw. ‘ _.

As it is, he, supposed to represent the theories of Federalism, restrains so-called Demo- crats from adding to the power of the central Government beyond the most daring dreams of Hamilton or the ex- treme Federalists who favored a heredi- tary monarchy. It is a familiar fact that the President of this republic has more real power and authority than any monarch in Europe. “Jeffersonian Lemocrats” do all they can to multiply that power indefinitely. A Republican President halts the murder of liberty proposed by pretended friends of lib- erty.

Times have changed and naturally we have changed with the times. Whether we should -.ave improved morally is an- other question. It seems as though we should have improvec. Many condi- tions in this present generation are bad enough, but on the whole they are no worse than during preceding gen- erations.

Don’t defy her. Take what was given you. Don’t dis- figure it with a jagged line left in the wake Of plucker or dépilatory. A great deal can be accomplished, especially in the care and shaping of the eyebrows, by persistent training. Contsant plucking makes this train- ing next to impossible. It is inevitable that the hair removed with tweezers or deplilatory will return sturdier, thicker and more stubborn than before. As to a depilatory, only the most expert can control its effect, at best. The result of amateurish attempts is apt to be unbecoming, if not ugly, sometimes grotesque. Let the brows grow, “Teddy.” ‘Train them. When you have powdered your face, brush all the powder out of the brows. With a small brush, brush the hairs first the right way, then the wrong way. Next, with a fine comb of the same small brush, push the hairs down at the top and shape them so that their tendency is to lie where they will form a smooth, natural arch You will find that the hairs of the brows will ‘soon be inclined to fall where they look best. Encourage them. With careful and frequent attention, you will be able, I am quite sure, to forget tweezers or depilatory entirely. (Copyright, 1928.) [HOW a By DR. W.

EAR MISS M'DONALD: As I am Che of the “modern young women,” I also have problems to solve, and I often read your articles. For several years I have been in the Business world, have traveled a good Géal, and consequently have met all ‘kfhds and many men. And it makes ‘me sad to relate it, but the more men ‘I meet, the greater seem my lost illu- sions. For never more do I meet a ‘Man who wishes to be a good friend ;;and pleasant companion. Five minutes ‘‘after he is introduced, if he can get ‘Me off in a corner alone, his conversa- ‘tion is something like this: “Where have you been all my life? You are awfully sweet. Kiss me.

Yet it evidently makes no difference. I certainly do not enjoy » petting promiscuously, and, of course, the love that is mentioned by all the men these days can not be the real, “sincere kind that must be necessary .for happiness. rf Now, why, Miss McDonald, do men fact as they do?” Yours very truly, HELEN McD. * Helen, they act as they do because . they think we like it. Man from the ‘very beginning has been trotting up “to women with’some offering or other ito win her smile. He has pestered his ,poor brain for ideas, for new things to -please her, for something that would ‘make her regard him as something ibetter than his rival. He has had iquite a time of it. At first it was sim- ,ple enough, but with time life became :more complex, his job of pleasing grew Smore and more difficult, till recently “he has just simply run out of ideas completely. “That is why, now they all talk alike, sound alike, look alike and think alike. ‘With almost no practice at all you can ‘tell at exactly what point any one of tthem will murmur ‘“Wonderful!”—or fegister abandoned hope. « They are all right, Helen. They would revert right back to the real man state in an emergency. It fs hard to picture one of them swimming out in Oxford baga to save you from a raging sea—but it would happen if you had the luck to fall into a raging sea! The fact is, Helen, we ourselves do not take the trouble to let them know the real things that do please us. We let them go on empty-handed, when they long with all their Rearts to come to us with everything our hearts desire. We do not give them a chance, Helen, and since only a few of us ever do fall overboard or otherwise find ourselves beyond our depths, we go along mis- judging, and never even guessing what lies beneath the silly banter that we call a “line.’’ Our fault. | How Many Can You Answer? the (Anawers Will He Found op Last Page.)

Some two years ago Miss Madge Ken- nedy appéared in the National Theater here with Sidney Blackmer, in a de- lightful little comedy called “Love in a Mist.” It failed to make the grade on Broadway, though it registered quite a success down here on the Potomac— another proof that New York and Washington are not always agreed. Now, New York will have a glimpse of the play in musical comedy setting. Our old friend, Marc Connelly, has written a book from the script, and Mayor Walker, the personification of New Yorkese, dapper, debonair, dependable, contributes the title song. “Say When!” which certainly has or had-a familiar sound. “Say When” opens in June. 7 * . . Ward Morehouse, a young Southern newspaper man who has made his mark in the metropolis, conducting a column, “Broadway After Dark,” on the New York Sun, has now branched forth as a playwright. His work of the theater, “Gentlemen of the Press,” » which smacks of Boston journalism, will soon be seen on Broadway. with John Crom- well in the leading role. It was this same John wromwell who played in “The Racket,” a play of New York life, that had ita premier here in the Na- tional. And it was Ward Morehouse who came to Washington with Willard Keith, author of a play that burlesqued the life of Gene Tunnéy, and then went back to New York to herald Wash- ington as his favorite camping ground whenever he wants to go camping. * . > > Washington, having had a glimpse of the Theater Guild’s work in “Por- gy.” will be interested in the latest bulletin from the desk of Robert Sisk, the guild press agent. Announcement is made that the guild’s first produc- tion next season will be Goethe's “Faust.” a version by Graham and Tristam Rawson already used by the Old Vic in London and with marked success. Friedlich Holl, one of the di- rectors of the Volksbuhne, in Berlin, will stage the production for the guild and Lee Simonson, who has a flair for | this sort of thing, will design the set- tings.

There are weak camps just as there are weak schools. There are spineless directors as well as wishbone teachers. There are full-of-bluff camps as there are private schools which take the money and do not deliver the goods. You, yourself, alone can not pick out a good camp. You will look at the pictures of the sail boats, canoes, $3,000 launch and the riding horses. Your parents must look to the water supply, the sewage _ disposal, the quality of the food, the question of medical care, the cost of the. inci- dentals, and last—but not least—the boss. As some one has said, “To choose & camp without knowing its director is to buy a pig in a poke.” Your folks must be on the watch-out for the pretty and enticing prospectus that promises the universe and delivers nothing except an indorsed check.

When one receives an invitation to a wedding, is the receipt acknowl- edged, and how? What is my mother's uncle to me, and what is her cousin to me? When a girl attends a dance or a wedding and ita asked to dance by a man she has. never met before— if ahe does not like to dance with him and he asks her several times, what Is she to do? Is it correct for a girl | kiss a young man because he has taken her out the first time to a movie or la dance?” I should never introduce one person to a whole group at a time; it confusing. I should manage it gradu~ ally, always introducing to the woman first.

You use the same sort of words in replying that are used in the | invitation. | What could your mother’s uncle be ito you but your great uncle? Her 'cousin is also your cousin, even if of (a different generation. Any young man who asks you to dance without first having taken the trouble to be introduced should not mind if you decline. You can always isay: “Thank you, I'd really rather not dance just now,” and if he has any sense 'he will ieave you alone. But remember that in a small .party, where all are guests of the same host, it is not un- | usual for a young man to feel that he should ask a girl to dance. No well-bred girl kisses in the off- hand way you suggest. A kiss marks ‘some sort of affection. It is not con- sidered as a payment for being taken ; to a movie or a dance. , ~~ ‘ff Mr. Work’s Pointer On Auction Bridge We are continuing today the consid- eration of bidding situations both sim- ple and complex.

Answer—Some girls go on to college to postpone the agony of a decision. Others drift into a job and then sigh for a position. Others get a “situation” at home just sitting pretty for a Prince Charming who has an air palace reach- ed by airplane. Your school has failed in that it has not discussed the pros and cons of various fields open to wom- en. My helplet, “Careers for Women,” free to readers of this column, is yours It tells you about these vocations. It can not answer which one you should follow because you give us no idea of your real interests and capacities. Lov- ing the sick does not make nursing. Love of color alone wouldn’t get you far in commercial designing. After you read the helplet ani some of the books named thereon write again. (Copyright 1928.) HAND. Three questions concerning the above hand; score in all cases love-all. How many can you answer? Make up your mind before you read the answers which follow. 1. What should South (Dealer) clare, holding the bove hand? . 2. What should North (Third Hand) declare with it; South having bid one Spade and West having passed? 3. What shovld North (Third Hand) declare with fi; South having bid one No Trump and West having passed? THE ANSWERS. 1. One Heart. Five-card King-Jack suits should be bid initially whenever the hand holds two quick side tricks, and in this case such tricks aré sup- plied by two Minor Aces. To hit a No Trump with this hand vould be un- sound even if the King of Hearts were the Ace, in a hand that contains an unstopped sult and a biddable five-card Major. the Major is the sounder bid. 2, One No Trump. The partner has shown strength in the unstopped Major suit and, having the two Minor Aces, No Trump promises better results than two Hearts would. 3. Two Hearts. While this hand con- tains unusual assistance for Partner’s No Trump, two Hearts would be an “in- surance” bid. South’s No Trump may have been based upon a holding of King-Queen in both Minors and Ace- Queen of Hearts, with the Spades un- stopped. If so, game probably could not be made at No Trump but would be easy in Hearts. On the other hand, if South’s No Trump has been bid with short Hearts, the two Heart bid by North—as it shows strength—will en- able South to bid two No Trumps and de- thus the Heart take-out insures game no matter what the character of South’s | hand may be.

ERE is a way to make washing your face an actual beauty treatment. Women are amazed at the softness of their skin, by the fine texture of their pores, as a result of this complexion habit. If the skin is regularly cleansed each day—if make-up and grime are thoroughly removed—natural charm results. The most effective means to do this, in gentle safety to the skin, is by daily use of Palmolive Soap. Its rich, Juxurious lather embodies two famed beauty oils—the oil of Olive and the oi! of palm. They gently penetrate and cleanse the pores when applied in the following belts? The model we have chosen for you is certain to be becoming. The per- pendicular lines of the tucks help to d. crease the apparent size of the hips. The little sleeves are cut in one with the front and back portions of the blouse, with a seam on the top of the shoulder. (Copyright, 1928.) The surest way to combat coarse skin, blemishes, blackheads. These beauty oils embodied in a true complexion soap way atid keep your skin radiantly clear, gloriously soft and charming: Each night wash your face gently with soothing Palmolive. With your two hands massage the magic lather of its oils into your pores, cleansing them thoroughly. Then rinse, first with warm, then cold, water. Dry by gently patting with a soft towel. Add a little cold cream for dryness, perhaps, but that is all. Remember—always remove make-up before you sleep. If left on it dries skin, fills pores and brings unsightly blemishes and blackheads.

But indications of a Oversold condition developed last hour and rallies took place in many issues that had’ suffered the se- verest losses in the morning decline Bullish operations were resumed in some special issues, including Briggs Manufacturing, National Cash Register, American Bosch Magneto, Great Nor- thern Ore and a few others, all of which closed in the plus line by a Narrow margin. The money situation was not too reassuring. The time loan market was firmer and some transactions were re- ported at 55, per cent. Call funds were a little more abundant than they ' were yesterday, rate held at 6 per cent, and there were no transactions on the outside at con- | Austin Nichole | Aust. Cred.

Absence of rallying power was at- tributed largely to fears prevalent in most quarters that the call money rate might be advanced above the 6 per cent renewal figure later in the day. This assertion was based principally on the indicated firmness of funds at the renewal figure, and was accentuated by the action of the banks in calling upward of $10,000,000 itn loans, a move which was regarded as untimely from | of the morning, in view the a bullish standpoint heavy liquidation of which must have erabie volume of funds. One of the outstanding revelations of the day, and likewise one which tended to shake confidence in the pres- ent position of the market, was the evi- dent. absence of strong support in most of the leading stocks. To the average observer it was appar- ent that only sufficent support was being extended to keep the market on @n even keel. This disclosure naturally Was interpreted widely as indicating that banking interests which ordinarily would move to support certain of the speculative leaders are willing to stand aside and permit the current corrective reaction to run at least a considerable distance further. Foreign exchanges were f-atured by German marks’ rise to a new high at 23.94, while other European rates were irregular.

When the schedule of golf events was adopted by the District Golf Associa- tion last» March ‘with the approval of the representatives of all the local clubs, the dates from June 6 to June 9 were assigned to the Columbia Coun- try Club, the second week in June— the thirteenth to the sixteenth inclu- sive—having been selected by the Mid- dle Atlantic Golf Association for its annual championship tournament to be played on the course of the Con- gressional Country Club. . Through an unfortunate clerical er- ror the invitations which have been issued by the Columbia Club announce the same dates as the Middle Atlantic event. As there is no desire on the part of the Columbia Club officials to have the dates conflict, the golf oom- mittee of the club at a meeting last night decided to hold the tournament on the dates originally named, June & to 3, xs baa ie aia = | R. Hi. on O10 H0O0— 3 FT 2) ‘ | the Boston marathon, Agee Sees City Club Race As Vehicle to Olympics By ARTHUR A. HEYWOOD, ILL AGEE, the 19-year-old mara- thoner of the Emorywood A. C. of Baltimore, and who at present is with the Army in the Third Corps Area, hopes to use the City Club’s 15-mile modified marathon Saturday as a ve- hicle to the Olympics. Upon the out- come of nis efforts Saturday rests all hopes for honors for this section, as the former Baltimore newsboy is re- garded as the best bet south of the Mason-Dixon line. Agee may not cross the finish line first in the City Tluk event Saturday; but, if he finishes well up among the l-aders and shows an improvement in form in the Baltimore marathon on June 2, he may win a place on the American Olympic Team. The United States will take six mara- thoners to Ar*sterdam this summer, Four men have already been generally conceded places on the team, namely, Joie Ray, Clarence De Mar, Whitey Michaelson and Harvey Frick. The last two named are of the Milrose A. A.; De Mar is of the American Legion of Mel- rose, Mass.; while Ray represents the Illinois A. C.

A" } The Dale bill to liberalize the civil | be taken | gervice retirement law will up in the House, and, it is expected, will be passed within a few days.

Mc- Mahon decided that the defendant did have a visible means of support. The principal complaint § against the old man, who was arrested by Po- liceman L, C. Wise, was that his yarns were stranger than fiction. He told tourists, it was charged, that the Bo- tanic Gardens contained a bone from the jaw of the whale that swallowed Jonah, but the records do not show if any of the tourists swallowed this tale. Johnson was also alleged to have explained that he had shined shoes for six Presidents and could remember when Pennsylvania avenue was a race track and glittering with good looking women and fast horses. Some time ago, it was testified, Johnson bought himself a $1 badge and started to work directing tourists and telling stories about the early days of Washington.
