LOVE, BOLTING SMITH, SEEKS STATE OFFICE Mayfield, Blanton, Connolly Are on Ballot for Seat in Next Senate. By CARLISLE BARGERON, The politicians, Democrats and Re- publicans alike, will turn their eyes ‘o- ward the Texas primary tomorrow in the hope that they may get some line en the bolts and rumors of bolts there. A senator and full slate of State officers are to be nominated and the'!r nomi- nations will most likely be equivalent to election despite the confusion brought about by the opposition to Gov. Smith. But in the size of the vote and a study of it, it is hoped that some signs may point to the presidential election in November. Particularly will the race of Thomas B. Love for lieutenant gov- ernor be watched because he has an- nounced that he will not support the Democratic party’s. presidential nomt- nee. In fact, he has joined the “Con- stitutional Democrats.” Because of Nis attitude his name will not appear on the primary ballot tn at least one county and possibly other counties. The county Democratic com- mittee took the position that he could not participate in the Democratic pri- mary if not a Democrat through and through. Love took the matter to the courte, but the committee so far has been upheld. The absence of Nis naine in this one country and perhaps other counties therefore militates against his nomination. Should he win in spite of such a handicap the fact that Texns Democrats are not holding his attitude agianst him will be all the more. pro- nounced. Size of Vote Interests. More light will probably be thrown on the future in the size of the vote A light vote, in the opinion of many observers, may be taken as indicative of a determination of a large number of voters to avoid the primafy, to be free to vote as they please in Novem- ber. This would not necessarily be true, although in the State’s senatorial race, at least, there would seem to be enough at stake to draw the voters out unless they stay in because of some plan they have for November. Repre- sentative Blanton, Tom Connally and Senator Mayfield are contesting for the senatorial seat now occupied by May- fleld, the indications being that the race lies between Connally and the senator. Should a heavy vote be polled, on the other hand, there will be many who see in it an indication that Texas Democrats as a whole have no serious thought of bolting the ticket in Novem- ber. The basis for this view lies in the fact that there is a primary re- quirement that all voters taking part CONTINUED ON PAGE 3, COLUMN 2. U. S. GLIDER RECORD OF 57 MINUTES SET German in Solo Flight Above Cape Cod Cliffs; Rises to 300 Feet Over Sea. North Thurg, Mass., July 26 (A.P.).— An unofficial American record for a glider flight was established today when Peter Hesselbach, German pilot, re- mained aloft 57 minutes in a solo flight above the cliffs of the. Cape Cod coast at Highland Light, near here. The glider took off at 10:30 a. m. from the edge of the bluff overlooking the Atlantic near the lighthouse. It reached a height estimated at 300 feet aboye the sea and -swung back and during the flight, finally landing grace- fully on the golf links beside the light- house. The only ‘other American record for a flight in a glider is an unofficial one of 9 minutes 45 seconds, established in 1911 by Orville Wright when he and his: brother Wilbur were experi- menting.

New York, July 26.—Harlow Hamilton Farding, a 29-year-old graduate of the United States Naval Acaciemy, who !s said to be a member of a socially prom- inent family of Springfield, Ill, today was exiled from New York State for four years. in that time, or if, wherever he may be, he touches a drop of intoxicating bev- erage or lapses in regular corresponc- ence with the patrol board of this State, according to a ruling of Genera! Sessions Judge Mancuso today, he will be Hable to serve a four-year peniten- tlary term in New York. This unusual sentence, the judge ex- plained, was a compromise between the exigencies of justice and pleas for clemency made by Harding’s friends and by representatives of companies | that lost in a grand larceny he com- mitted two years ago. It was an- nounced at an Informal session in Judge Mancuso's chambers, at which were represented the Ambassador, Ritz- Carlton and Roosevelt Hotels, clothters and others. Harding, who was graduated from If he sets foot within this State with- | Annapolis in 1920, was sentenced to from two to four years’ |jmprisonment after he had pleaded guilty to four in- dictments for grand larceny charging him with having passed two bad checks for $100 and one for $389.52. He has been in the Tombs since June 4, the date of his sentence. Harding, the court decided today, must leave the State within 24 hours to accept a position in a Boston factory | offered to him by an Annapolis school- mate. Because drink was said to have con- tributed to Harding's delinquency, the | fudee appended the condition that alco- holic indulgence shall be considered a violation of parole. The indictments were returned after }evidence that Harding, in company with Miss Jane Dunne, registered un- der assumed names at the Plaza Hotel ‘in December, 1926, and paid his Dill with a worthless check.

On the other hand the members of the Swedish relief ex- pedition who are traveling to Stock- holm by the same train were loudly cheered as they boarded thelr car.

U.S. Seizes Alcohol In a Police Station Chicago, July 26 (A.P.).—Federal pro- hibition agents raided the Shakespeare avenue police station on the Northwest Side last night and seized several bot- tles, which they said contained alco- hol, then went to a store adjoining the police station and seized a quantity of beer and whisky, which the agents said were made on the premises. Capt. Patrick J. Harding, of the Shakespeare station, said the alcohol was for rubbing purposes only and was used by the police handball squad. He said the police did not know liquor was being sold next door. The agents made the raid after two of their number, pos- ing as Federal prisoners, had spent a night in the police station cells last week and declared they purchased liq- uor from a janitor. | spectators ROBINSON MURDER TRIAL JURY PUT UNDER GUARD Fecling at Front Royal Led to Summoning of Venire From Winchester.

The land now contains a quantity of native rubber ‘rees, but the clearing of the Jungle and the planting of the en- tire tract in rubber will consume sev- eral years.

The Chinese press comments sar- castically about the Tokyo government sending Baron Hayashi to visit Mukden ostensibly to do homage to the tomb of Chang Tsolin and they declared the elder statesman’s visit is similar to that of Prince Ito to Korea prior to annexation. It is evident that Japan has clamped down the lid on the Japa- nese press and news services. On the other hand, Japan's press or- gans in China have started an attack on C, T.

The foreign newspa- pers, which are under Japanese infiu- ence, which until a few days ago pro- fusely published news about Japan's purposes In China, now hardly mention the matter. The British press attempts to minimize the embroglio and does not comment editorially, probably because they do not know the attitude of the British government.

The decision to carry out the pro- jected filght was reached by the cham- ber of commerce committee sponsor- ing the trip after it was found: the plane could be repaired. The plane was partially wrecked by a forced landing in a cornfield shortly after the take-off early today when the fillers were unable to gain altitude with a heavy load against unfavorable at- mospheric conditions in the hilly re- gion near Rockford.

WELL-TIMED PUNCHES OF TUNNEY FIND MARK Heeney’s Rushes Futile as Champion Stabs Him With Lefts and Rights. By CHARLES W. DUNKLEY (Associated Press Sports Writer). Yankee Stadium, New York, July 26 (A.P.).—Blinded and staggering, his _ face a bloody smear, Tom Heeney, the GENE TUNNEY, Rickard’s Loss $400,000 In His First Fight Failure Guarantees to Fighters and Government Tax Alone Total Nearly $825,000 With Fight Returns Ap- proximately $500,000—Has Other Expenses. Special to The Washington Post. New York, July 26.—Here.. in ote backyard of the Bronx there is anguish | in the air tonight, for Tex Rickard has promoted his first financial flop of the century. The Kliondike man has failed for the first time to pam pay dirt and it happened in Babe Ruth's grassy boudoir, the Yankee Stadium. Despite the artistry of the Student Prince of boxing and the hardy efforts of the envoy from New Zealand, Tex Rickard and his 600 millionaires will have to dig up aproximately 400,000 to pay what Wall Street calls the debit and what Rickard refers to as the “red” incident to the boxing exhibi- tion between Gene Tunney and Tom Heeney. Unfortunately Gene Tunney’s re- tiring nature was met with equalled apathy on the part of fightgoers, and only the more hardy fans“turned out. Mr. Rickard estimated the crowd at 60,000, but a stroll through the grand- stand and ringside sections followed with a little multiplication showed that 40,000 would cover amply. Mr, Rickard said early this evening he would be pleasantly surprised if the receipts exceeded $600,000. He was not pleasantly surprised. Lightning calcu- lators placed the intake nearer to $500,- 000, so this may he called the half- million dollar battle, or the fight that failed, Tunney was guaranteed not less than $525,000. The champion signed a con- tract, required by the State Boxing Commission, providing 37144 per cent of the receipts as his reward for defending his title. It is common knowledge, however, that Tunney will collect on his guaran- tee rather than on a percentage basis, which would leave him holding one corner of the bag. Heeney had his name to a contract for 12%, per cent of the proceeds, but the New Zealander col- lected $100,000, which was guaranteed him. The percentage of the fighters alone, counting the Government’s 25 per cent levy and the State’s 5 per cent tax, which amounts to almost $200,000. leaves Rickard $325,000 on the wrong Side of the ledger. His othe- expenses will top the $75,000 mark. With Jack (Sock ‘em and pack ’em in) Dempsey only a .pectator, the best Rickard could do was to “hold the bag.” But he will take the bag back to his 600 Madison Square Garden mil- lionaires. They will make wry faces, but the loss is not entirely from the Klondike man’s pockets. The corpora- tion will have to take it on the belt line. Tex had become filled with pride of his seven-figure extravaganzas. He had panned more than $8,000,000 in the last five fights he had promoted. To- night’s fight that failed was his first venture into the “red” of any conse- quence since he became known as the man with the Midas touch. Down the years from the day when Gans fought Nelson {n Goldfield, Nev., 22 years ago Rickard shows have been golden showers foc the fighters and the promoter, For nine years Tex had Jack Dempsey. whom he calls “the greatest gate draw- ing attraction in the world.” The sec- ond Dempsey-Tunney fight on Septem- ber 22, at Soldiers Fiel_, Chicago, was Rickard’s, and probably ooxing’s, apex There Rickard’s show played to a crowd of 150,000 and he took in $2,650,000 Tunney got $1,000,000, Dempsey carted $450,000 to the bank to pay for his beating and Tex drew down $508,000. \Bishops Reply to Candler; Defend Political Activities Cannon, Moore, Mouzon and Dubose in Statement Cite Episcopal Addresses and Records of Church, in Anti-Smith Drive. Richmond, Va., July 26 (A.P.).—Four Southern Methodist bishops, in a joint statement made public here tonight, warned the wet forces that the moral ecraelements of the Nation “will not be driven from the field by the cry that they are ‘bringing the church into poll- tics’” by opposing an “outstanding enemy of national prchibition” for hae Presidency. The statement, signea by subane James Cannon, jr., ci Richmond; John W. Moore, of Dallas; Edwin Mouzon, of and. Hovace M Dubose, of Nashville, called pon the ministry and Methodist Episcopal Church South, to continue the. fight against the liquor traffic and “would- be nullifiers of the law.” | In view of statements recently a by Bishop Warren A.

Tunney, and bred in New York, and defending his title at home for the first time, cut the sturdy, courageous New Zealander to pleces, subjecting him to one of the worst beatings a challenger ever received. Upward of 50,000 spectators saw Heeney wade in to unbroken slaughter through round after round as Tunney, the master boxer, lashed his face with left-hooks and pounded his heart with vicious, solid rights. Heeney came charging in like a bull, but the elusive Tunney, cool and cole lected, evr#led. his wild rights to the jaw and stabbed him with lefts to the face until the thud of the gloves against Heeney’s cut and bruised face almost became monotonous. Tunney Wins 9 of 11 Rounds, The Associated Press score card showed Tunney winning at least nine of the eleven rounds, with Heeney winning the first and dividing honors with the title-holder in the second. Heeney’s major offensive was the first round After that he was a badly pounded target who, although borihg in with tireless energy, could never escape Tunney’s masterful attack. The crowd, estimated in excess of 50,000, was the smallest to witness @ world’s heavyweight championship bate tle since the fiasco of Shelby, five years ago when Jack Dempsey ruined the banks of that boom town by defeating Tommy Gibbons. The battle in advance, lacked the colorful appeal associated with the Tunney-Dempsey battles in Philadele- phia and Chicago, each in turn with its record-shattering gate and attendance, Boxing Masters Durability. The battle was a struggle between @ boxer who has proved himself perfec- tion in his art, and a strong, durable fighter whose chief asset is his natural strength. Tunney, a master of defense lve boxing, allowed Heeney to set the early pace, and then, after slowing him up with savage blows under his heart, proceeded to batter him into a state of collapse. It took no expert, after the savagely fought tenth round, to tell that Heeney, the plodder, had met his master, and that his finish was coming, As this round ended, Heeney was lying flat on his back, his body rolled to the edge of the ring, completely knocked out. His seconds rushed into the ring as the bell clanged and the fallen New born Zealand gladiator was draggéd to his” ~ corner where restoratives were applied, His seconds worked frantically over him, shaking his head to sweep the cobwebs out of his brain and applying the smelling salts to his bleeding nose, Referee Humanely Halts Fray. Heeney, with marvelous recuperative power, came charging out of his corner as the eleventh round opened, only to fall an easy victim to another barrage of well-timed punches that’ knocked him groggy and reeling. As he stood there, with his back to the ropes, his arms hanging heavily at his sides, a certain victim to a finishing knockout .blow,. Eddie Forbes, the ree feree, humanely waved Tunney to his corner. Heeney had had his chance and lost but only after fighting a game, uphill battle. With the exception of the clove: and Heeney’s desperate charge in the first, the tenth round was the most dramatic of the battle. It was so one- sided that Heeney, bleeding from @ wicked .cut over his left eye, was pa- thetic. Tunney opened up with one of those terrific heart and then shot a left to the face, By that time blood was streaming into Heeney’'s eye, blinding him. He lashed out with a left to the body.

OLD-TIME EXUBERANCE IS STRANGELY ABSENT New-Style Fan Seemingly Re- flects Poise of Champion, Who Kept Title. Fight fans, like pugilistic champions, have changed from the rough-and- Teady and noisy, to the apathetic and cultural, if the crowd of more than 3,000 fight followers who gathered in 2 SN: front of The Post last night to listen to the radio account of the Tunney- Heeney heavyweight championship match at the Yankee Stadium, New York, is to be taken as an example of the current trend. Despite a hot and game battle, and SELF-DEFENSE ROBINSON PLEA IN FRONT ROYAL, VA., KILLINGS the fact that it was as bloody and gory as any championship bout in years—which Announcer Graham Mc- Namee did not fail to advise the crowd—last night's crowd stood in rapt interest and silence, in contrast to the hoots, pleadings and arguments which marked the crowd of followers of other “battles of the century” in the past. Perhaps it was because neither of the combatants have won that Idol's place in the hearts of fight fans that dominant pugilistic personalities in the past have attained, but at any rate the crowd last night refused to be greatly enthused and when a game warrior was finally decisively beaten by the far superior Tunney only a few handclaps were heard as the crowd quickly dispersed. Even Applause Dignified. Even the handclapping was dignified, Such as Mr. Tunney, himself, might ac- cord some indifferent Shakespearean presentation. The crowd, which ex- tended back into the street as far as the loading platforms on Pennsylvania avenue in front of The Post, appar- ently was skeptical that the bout was an honest-to-goodness, real champion- ship battle, such as it had known in the past, and although it followed every blow with interest, nothing short of a knockout by Heeney could have aroused its enthusiasm. The large squad of police that was on hand to keep traffic lanes open marveled at the quietness of the crowd, and members of it declared that it was the most orderly and easily man- aged they could remember handling Not an argument or fight, other than that in New York to which the crowd was listening, was reported. Reception Was Clear. The fans in front of The Post re- ceived the account of the fight over a FPreed-Eiseman radio set, loaned by Carroll Electric Co., and so distinct was the reception that many people Mstened from perches on the coping around the District Bullding grounds and from automobiles parked across the Avenue from The Post Building. The make-up of the gathering in front of The Post exemplified to a great degree the general appeal that prize fighting has attained in recent years. In the crowd were well-known business men and their families, groups of girls and boys, dignified grand- parents, and, of course, the inevitable large number of small boys. Three Boys Arrested In Auto-Theft Case Three boys, charged with the theft of an automobile belonging to Harry 8. Skinner, of 821 I street northwest, were brought back to Washington yesterday from Harrisonburg, Va., where they had been arrested. The boys are Hubert Lee Hinchey, 14 years old, of 604 D street southeast; Howard William Stokes, 13 years old, of 731 Eighth street southeast, and Charles Albert Garner, 17 years old, of 515 Sev- enth street southeast. Hinchey and Stokes are at the House of Detention and Garner is at the Sixth Precinct sta- tion. CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. diced, a special venire of 64 men was summoned from Winchester. Virtually all of the men who were summoned were business men in Winchester and as one of them put it “this case has put a crimp in business in Winchester.” Despite a warning from Circuit Court Judge Philip Williams that he would not permit shirking of jury duty, a sud- den epidemic of excuses broke out among the special veniremen, and ‘t was not until the last had been called that a jury was obtained. Most of those disqualified offered excuses that they were Opposed to capital punishment and that they had formed convictions which evidence would not remove. It required nearly four hours to ob- COL. GRANT EXPLAINS DRY CITY FOUNTAINS Says People Make a Nuisance of Them When They Are Turned On. The difference in the passion of Washington residents and the populace of ancient Rome for getting under run- ning water in hot weather is the principal reason why more of the fountains of the Capital are not turned on in the summer. The comparison of the Romans and Washingtonians and their relative taste for water was made yesterday by Lieut. Col. U. 8S. Grant 3d, director of the Office of Public Build- ings and Parks, in reply to a letter from the Commission of Fine Arts, ask- ing for wider operations of fountains The passion of local residents for getting under running water is such that Col. Grant finds he can not proper- ly police the fountains after they are turned on As a result, he says, the fountains and make them a nul- sance, The commission had pointed to ancient Rome as an example of the properly fountained city, and l Grant replies’ that “the Roman popu- lace has a less strong impulse in this regard’’—that of getting under water— than Americans. In addition to this, the colonel points out that his plumbers were busy on other things in the spring, and could not give the fountains proper attention. Man, in Hospital, Treated for Poison William Beavers, 39 years old, 124 Yuma street southeast, was treated at Casualty Hospital last night for poison- ing, which police stated was self- administered. After treatment, Beavers was re- moved to Gallinger Hospital. His con- dition was reported as serious. Beavers told police he took the poison following a disagreement with his wife.. He has three children. EVERYTHING MEN WEAR 23 23 9 Hths Sat (ths Mathematicians will at once recog- nize the above strange fractions.

Commonwealth's Attorney John J. Downing obtained the services of George Horning. former assistant United States attorney for the District of Columbia, to assist him in the prose- cution. The photographer is defended by Au- brey G. Weaver and William C. Arm- strong, prominent trial lawyers of War- ren County. Robinson pleaded not guilty to the indictment and his law- yers asserted his plea would be that of self defense. , Both the prosecutors and defense at- torneys briefly outlined their case to the jury. The jury is composed of Dailey R. Slonaker, 40 years old, coal merchant; A. Taylor Ritter, jr., 22 years old, sales- man; Edward W. Barr, 27 years old, orchardist; R. S. Jolliffe, 43 years old, proprietor of an amusement park; Ralph R. Rosenberger, 29, lumberman; Ralph M. Lamp, 36 years old, employe of a woolen mill: Hoye Riley, mer- chant; Walker McK.

Lupton, 33 years old, a traveling salesman; Allen B Gray, 37 years old, merchant; Andrew Bell, 50 years old, secretary of the Winchester Chamber of Commerce, anid Amos Shryock, may- or-elect of Winchester. Judge Williams ruled that Robinson could not be tried for the deaths of both men, so the State elected to go to trial with the killing of the son, Mid- dleton M. Johnson, The trial moved swiftly following the selection of the jury. Both defense and prosecution attorneys expressed the opinion that the case would be pre- sented to the jury by Saturday. Ac- cording to Downing the State will call 25 witnesses. Defense counsel said they expected to call a similar number. Among the witnesses who testified before the trial adjourned at 5:30 today was Betty Helbey, 19 years old, and 4 student nurse at the Winchester Me- morial Hospital. The first clash be- tween opposing counsel occurred wher Prosecutor Downing attempted to in- troduce a dying declaration made hy young Johnson a few minutes before he died. Defense counsel claimed Johnson was unconscious and unable to make any statement. The judge, however, ruled ;after the jury had been sent from the ‘| room, that the evidence was admissible and the nurse told of Johnson's last words which were that he gave his ilfe in an effort to make peace. Previously the prosecution in its }opening statement had told the jury ithat they would prove that Johnson was shot maliciously by Robinson while attempting to settle a minor dif- ference between the photographer and the elder Johnson. Members of the jury were surprised considerably when they learned they were to be. locked up over night during the trial. None brought any extra clothes with them and despite the orders that they must not talk with anyone except among themselves they did not hesitate to shout to friends as they were being taken to lunch to “beat it quick to Winchester” for some clothes. They are in charge of C. Lee Barr, city sergeant of Winchester. Lincoln’s Law Desk To Go Under Hammer Bunker Hill, W. Va., July 26—A desk which was used jointly by President Abraham Lincoln and W. Hill Lamon when the two were law partners for eighteen years in Springfield, Ill.. and which was given by Mr. Lamon to a brother, will be one of a number of Lincoln-associated personal possessions to be sold on August 2 at the home of the late Mrs. Maria E. Janney, near here. Mrs. Janney was formerly the widow of Charles 8. Lamon, a brother of W. Hill Lamon, through whom the desk came into her ession. W.

Putney, 38, who committed suicide here at his home today, will be held at the residence Saturday morning, at 10 o'clock. Burial will be here. Dr. Putney, who had been a member of the staff of the Western State Hospital for 11 years, had been in ill health for five months. While his wife was absent from the house, Dr. Putney went to the base- ment, climbed on a barrel, fastened a rope to a rafter, and around his neck, and kicked the barrel from under him. A coroner said that death was due to strangulation. Dr. Putney was a graduate of the Medical College of Virginia, Richmond. He is survived by his wife and a brother, Dr. Charles W. Putney, of Staunton; his father, W. Putney, and another brother, Hansford Putney. Mrs. Lule Ross, of Washington, a sis- ter-in-law of Dr. Putney, who is em- ee by Senator James Couzens, of ichigan, reached Staunton this eve- ning for the funeral. ~ Fireman, in Collision, Dead From Scaldings Martinsburg, W.

HITTING POLICEMAN BRINGS FINE OF $50 —_————- — + Maryland University Student Said to Have Resented Park- ing Complaint. Robert A. Hitch, 20 years old, of 4902 Ninth street northwest, was fined $50 and costs on a charge of assaulting a policeman, and $5 and costs on a charge of violating a parking ordinance of Takoma Park, Md., when he was tried yesterday before Judge Samuel Riggs in the Rockville Police Court. According to the evidence, Hitch had taken a girl to a theater Saturday night, and, driving her to her home in Takoma Park, had parked his automobile. Chief of Police Lewis A. Cutshaw, of Takoma Park, appeared and told Hitch that he was parked at the wrong angle. Hitch, who Is said to be a student at the University of Maryland, and to be an aspirant for the boxing team of that institution, is reported to have objected to the manner of Cutshaw in making his complaint. In the argu- ment the policeman -was knocked un- conscious. In falling he cut his head on the sidewalk. Citizens summoned Silver Spring police, who arrested Hitch. 4 BISHOPS DEFEND POLITICAL ACTIVITIES CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. young that Bishop Candler quoted only from those bishops prior to 1894 and that prohibition as an issue gained ascend- ancy since that time. “These bishops,” the joint statement said, “openly and courageously met in their own way the condition which con- fronted them in those days, but it Is likewise true that bishops, ministers and laymen of our church in our days and generation have met with equal frankness the greal moral issues that have confronted them.” “We emphasize,” the statement con- tinued, “that it. the Episcopal address of 1922 it is declared that ‘it is incum- bent upon every good citizen (minis- ters and laymen) to work for the plac- ing in power of men who are sincere friends of the law. “Also in the last recorded action of the general conference (1926), it is de- clared: ‘That in our State—from con- stable to governor—and in the nation —from revenue agent to. President—of- ficilals must be selected who believe in enforcement not only because prohibi- tion is the law, but because it ought to be the law,’ and all our people (ministers as well as laymen) are called upon to exert their full influence as Christians and as patriotic citizens of our Republic. “It would be an unthinkable repu- diation of our personal responsibility as Christian citizens and a base be- trayal of those who have a right to look to us for moral leadership to retire from the field at this critical juncture in the warfare with this age-long enemy of mankind. “We notify the defenders and the ad- vocates of the liquor traffic that the moral forces of the country will not be driven from the fleld by the cry that they are ‘bringing the church into politics,’ because they are opposing the election to the presidency of a man whose personal and official record both brand him as the outstanding enemy of national prohibition for which great re- form we have ourselves, not only as citizens, but also as Christian ministers, been working for years.” — ee ee | ee ee ~ It is not necessary to have had on Ac- count at this Bank to Borrow ‘MORRIS PLA - is RESERVE. OFFICERS APPEAL FOR CHANGE CTIRS. OPPOSITION Board’s Plan to Have Affairs Handled by General Staff Is Criticized. EXPERTS POINT OUT PROPOSAL BREAKS LAW Present Policy Defended by Association; Further Con- ferences Sought. Both approval and opposition greet- ed the report of the committee on operation of administrative policies governing appointment, assignment, and promotion of reserve officers, made public yesterday by the War Depart- ment, which has not yet given con- sideration to the document nor made any comments on its recommenda- tions. A majority report of the board which convened in this city, July 9, that affairs of the officers’ reserve be solely and entirely committed to the War Department under the chief of staff. and that its affairs as a strictly Federal force be handled as those of the regular army, subject to = the policies of the general staff, and the operations conducted by the adjutant general's office, met with opposition. This opinion, it was explained by Officials of the Reserve Officers As- sociation of the United States, nullli- fles an existing office for administer- ing reserve affairs. They said the sug- gestion to nullify the provision of the National Defense Act under which they are granted an equal voice in the adoption of policy and regulations for their own government and administra- tion would be resisted. Benefit Seen to Reserves. They said that, while the association had .not had sufficient time to thor- oughly examine the reports of the com- mittee, a casual reading of its recom- mendations would indicate that a ma- jority of the numerous recommenda- tions coincide with the opinion of a large majority of reserve officers and would, without doubt, if put tn opera- tion by the War Department, be bene- ficial to the reserves and consequently to the Army as a whole. The proposal of a majority of the committee that policies affecting the appointment, assignment, promotion reappointment and separation from the service of reserve officers be prepared by the general staff of the Army, they regard of the greatest importance and overshadowing all other recommenda- tions. This, however, they asserted, is contrary to the expressed provisions of Section 5 of the Defense Act, which provides that such policies should be prepared by an equal number of re- serve officers with: those of the various sections of the ceneral staff employed in the preparations of t*>* policies. Citizen Soldiers Protected. They recalled that this section pro- vided further that such reserve officers shall have first been certified as fitted for such duty by the governors of States and Territories, and that in the adoption of this provision Congress es- tablished the policy of providing for an equal voice of citizen soldiers, the reserve officers, in the preparation and adoption of all policies having to do with development and administra- tion of the citizen component of. the Army, thus assuring tha the Regular Army shall not subordinate the civilian to the professional viewpoint in all things. The continuance of the present policy, they asserted, is absolutely es- sential to the welfare of the civilian forces created by the defense act and which would in time of war be re- quired to furnish approximately 85 per cent of our entire force. Emphasizing that the defense act was designed by civilians to assure an adequate emergency defense force obviate the necessity of a great stand- ing Army, they recalled that its adop- tion by Congress was vigorously op- posed by many leaders of the Army: though it is generally approved’ by those in authority in the regular Army today. Guard Corps Recommended. Establishment of a “guard corps” for National Guard officers, was a novelty recommendation of the ma- jority report. It was said at reserve officers’ headquarters that this pro- posal was unique, if not impossible, as the National Guard is, for constitu- tional reasons, State forces. Association officials announced it Is probable the body will request Secre- tary of War Davis to convene a board to harmonize the views expressed in the majority and minority reports, Brig. Gen. Roy Hoffman, Oklahoma, president of the association, now at- tending a meeting of reserve officers of Michigan, will confer with Secretary Davis on their return to Washington. Members of the committee were Brig. Gen. John R. Delafield, Col. Carl R. Gray, jr., Lieut. Col. William R. Brooks, Brig. Gen. L. R. Gignilliat, Col. Alex- ander 8. Begg, Lieut. Cols. C.

Shan, Feng Yuhiang are already re- ported en route to Nanking. Japan’s demand that the Nanking government withdraw its note fixing the time limit at July 20 has not been re- ceived in Nanking. (Copyright, 1928, by New York Tribune, Inc.) Hands-off Policy Here. The State Department appeared yes- terday to have adopted a determined hands-off policy with regard to the Sino-Japanese differences over Manchu- ria, but it was reported in unofficial quarters that arbitration will be the only settlement of 4 situation that threatens to permanently sever China and Manchuria, With the Japanese holding what dis- patches intimate to be a virtual pro- tectorate over the Mukden government of the Northerners in Manchuria, and with determination to prevent hostlli- ties by the Nationalist government of China that may imperil Japanese hold- ings, the separation of the province actually exists, according to these sources. There is not any likelihood of the Na- tionalists venturing further northward than the Great Wall of China, accord- ing to some observers here, giving the Northerners who are now in control beyond it the protection of Japanese armed forces. The Japanese, it is re- ported, have decreed that there shall be no fighting in this area. Just after Peking was seized, Nation- alist leaders announced that their armies might advance to Manchuria, but this was nromptly halted by the Japanese attitude, it is stated There- fore, it is pointed out as a natural situation, the Nationalists can not take Manchuria by armed force, leaving only arbitration with Japar as a means of unifying China. Danger of Fighting Slim. As long as the Nationalists hold their forces below the Great Wall, there is little possibility of actual fighting be- tween the Nationalists and Northern- ers or the Nationalists and Japanese. In view of this, it is semiofficially stated that the surest way of clearing the situation would be through arbi- tration by the Nationalists and Jap- anese. This is imminent, according to some, because of the action of Sec- retary of State Frank B. Kellogg in accepting the Nationalists’ proposal on behalf of the United States. Great Britain’s action on the invli- tation of the Nationalists to negotiate a settlement of treaties between the two nations is expected momentarily. It is almost a certainty that Great Britain will take an affirmative attitude, thus ‘leaving Japan among the three great powers heavily interested in the Far East still holding out against the Na- tionalists. Washington does not expect any great fare of action in the Far East. The attitude here is that the favor of this country puts the Nationalists on a sound footing, which Manchuria may laccept if the Japanese would act. as | agent.

Orange, Va., July 26.—Spectacular horsemanship exhibited by Miss Hulda Williams, Richmond society girl, daugh- ter of Berkley M.

Coming into the ring on Mistress Shannan, an erratic mare in the String of horses owned by Frank W. Corley, Richmond sportsman, to com- pete for the horse show cup, on which Corley has a leg, Miss Williams haa trouble with her mount almost from the start. Twice Mistress Shannan put her rider down, only to have her vault back in the saddle, begrimed with dirt. In going into the jump in the in- and-out, Mistress Shannan, by one of the quick turns for which she is noted in show ring. circles, forced Miss Williams from the saddle. She swung far to the right, with one foot in the stirrup.. As the mare attempted to duck away from her, Miss Williams, with a movement that would have done credit to a circus acrobat, was back in the saddle. A roar of applause went up from the stands as the game girl settled hersel! cn the mare’s back and headed her again for the barrier. Into the next jump, a stiff post and rail fence, Mistress ‘Shannan crashed and Miss Williams weut to earth. In an instant she was on her feet, and through the cloud of dust created by the mix-up could be seen chasing after her mount.

“OWEN SOUGHT HELP UF TAMMANY HALL GOV, SMITH SAYS Nominee Asserts Senator, 1924, Asked Assistance to Get Nomination. OKLAHOMA RETORTS BY PRAISING HOOVER Will “Be Damned if He’ll Stand for Tammanyizing of of U.S. Government.” Albany, N. Y., July 26 (A.P.).—The sincerity of former Senator Owen, of Oklahoma, in bolting the Democratic why was questioned today by Gov. mith, who recalled that Owen, as a presidential aspirant himself four years @go, sought the support of Tammany Hall, which he now its assailing. Owen, who served three terms in the United States Senate, retiring in 1921, announced yesterday in New York that he had cast his lot with the Republi- cans this year because of Smith’s stand on prohibition and his alliance with Tammany. Asked to comment on this develop- ment at the outset of his press con- ferenco today Gov. Smith advised the reporters to let their pencils “rest a minute,” as he had prepared a formal statement, one of the few he had given out since his nomination at Houston. Calling for copies the nominee, be- fore they were distributed, read the text aloud, slowly and solemnly. Sincerity Is Questioned. “Naturally I am sorry to see Senator Owen leave the Democratic party be- Cause of my nomination,” it began. “However, he is a free American citi- Zen and has the right-to choose ‘the party that bests suits his ideas. “My greatest regret comes from one of the reasons advanced because it compels me to question his. sincerity.” Then the governor recounted that during the Madison Square Garden convention deadlock four years ago, Owen called to see him at the Man- hattan Club across the street from the convention hall, “and asked me to use my influence to secure for him the support of the Tammany delega- tion and stated that’ with that support he felt he could get considerable dele- gates from other States for himself as a candidate for the nomination tor President.” “His ‘hostility to Tammany Hall,” Gov. Smith concluded, “must have grown up in his heart in the last four years. In 1924 he was not only will- ing to accept its support, but quite anxious to get it.” No Comment on Simmons. That was all the Democratic presi- dential nominee had to say about Owen's bolt, or about politics today. He declined to comment on the retire- ment from the Democratic committee of Senator Simmons, of North Caro- lina, who fought his candidacy vigor- ously during the preconvention, period, and Had ‘no new announcements to make regarding his own plans. , It is the governor's intention to go by train to New York tomorrow for a night conference there with Gov. Ritchie of Maryland before proceeding Saturday to a club on the south shore of Long Island for a week-end rest. He will make his headquarters at Canoe Place Inn, Hampton Bays, :formerly called Good Ground, and before re- turning to Albany expects to inspect the Mountauk State Park nearby. The governor put in a turn at his Office, togged in golfing clothes. He played a round of golf in the afternoon, then prepared to go with his family to Schenectady to attend the wedding in the First Presbyterian Church there tonight of Miss Mabel C. Lunn, daughe ter of George R. Lunn, former lieu- tenant governor, to Douglas A. Calkins, of New: York City. Owen Praises Hoover. (Associated Press.) An attack by Gov. Smith on Robert L. Owen, former Democratic senator from Oklahoma, questioning the sin- cerity of Owen in leaving the party be- cause of Tammany, was answered last night by the bolter with a long state- ment extolling Herbert Hoover. Declining earlier in,the day “to en- gage in a conflict of words” with the Democratic nominee when informed of the governor’s remarks about him, Mr. Owen made public his statement last night through the Republican national committee after a call upon Chairman Work. ¢ He explained his position against Smith to newspaper men with the declaration that “I will be damned if I will stand for the Tammanyizing of the Government of the United States.” “I am an imerican citizen and I am mot a coward, I will not point out any evil of Tammany except to say that there is a book by Mr. Werner which contains 50,000 pages of evidence.” The Oklahoman said he did not plan FUNERAL DIRECTORS ~~ "*PHOMAS R.

But there is a technical twist, in that Gov. Smith will not officially fig- ure in tomorrow's primary. So, liter- ally speaking, the voters do not take the pledge to support him. The spirit of the rule, however, is that they should. “So instead of a heavy vote meaning:that all is well, in Texhs De- mocracy, it might mean that the vot- ers do not Intend to let the party pri- mary pledge them in thefr attitude toward Smith. Despite these qualifications, a heavy turnout will be welcomed by those who Smith’s interest at heart. Interest In Simmons. Added interest, and maybe more than is wanted, attaches to primary because the action of Senator Furnifold M. Simmons, of North Caro- lina, in refusing to remain as national committeeman for the Smith fight, has rather caused some apprehension in the Democratic camp that the Southern Situation might possibly get out of hand after all. The senator's action served to draw sharp attention to what is going on down South. There is the fear that his action may, at least, make the fight harder in North Caro- lina, not that the senator plans to fight the ticket but because he does not in- tend to fight for it. Certainly his resignation from the national commit- tee will give comfort to those who are thinking, of bolting outright. Considerably less importance attends the defection of former Senator Robert L. Owen, of Oklahoma. Senator Owen is bitter in his opposition to the New York Governor and has announced that he would suppott Hoover. After call- ing on Senatof Moses, of New Hamp- shire, in New York and ‘pledging his support to Hoover he called yesterday on Chairman Work, of the Republican national committee, and reiterated this support. But the ‘senator has been away from Oklahoma a long time and, of course,, lacks the political influence in the State that he once had. Incidentally, it appears that although | the governor made known that he would not continue the controversy with William Allen White, the Emporia, Kans., publisher, who, although pledged to the support of Senator Curtis at Kansas City, went around boosting Hoover, the governor’s publicity de- partment is not to feel so restrained. Highbrow Words Used, In the first edition from the pub- licity grist which this reporter has re- celved White is handled in some rather highbrow.language.. He.is looked upon as a literary highbrow, so the Smith statement dealing with him uses such terms as “pyerile,” “superficial cul- turine” and “rationalize.” .“Mr. William Allen White is afraid the words ‘social’ and ‘economic’ would not be mentioned in the White House so frequently by Smith as by Hoover,” the statement says. “We haven't counted’ them but we venture the as- sertion that the words ‘social’ and ‘eco- nomic’ are found more frequently in the governor’s State papers. The test of Mr. White is purely literary and from the standpoint of action puerile, but as an applier of social. and. eco- nomic policies to the problems of gov- to take any active part in-the campaign against Gov. Smith. After he was in- formed of the governor’s Albany decla- ration he issued th- long statement ce- claring “Herbert Hoover, in my opinion, is the best-qualified man“ ever ‘present- ed b, any: party in America for the Presidency during my life.” Recounting , the, work .of. Mr. Hoover during the war on ‘behalf of the women and children of ‘Europe, Owen con- cluded that “If, there ever was a.man fitted to be an ‘advance — of pros- perity” it ‘is Herbert Hooyer. “The American pegple will honor themselves in degree as they honor this very great.

In the previous instance the ambassador found two Turkish girls in a smashed automobile on a lonely country road.

PRIL would have preferred 60 much to sit quietly by the fire and talk books with DeLain Thomas. There were so many things she could learn from him, besides how to act. She knew that she had never met a man like him before, a nian with so brilliant a mind, so brilliantly trained. She remembered that in one scene he had sald to a girl, with that cutting sarcasm, “No, my dear, a countess does not come into a room like that. A countess would come into the room like this.” And.April felt instinctively now that he spoke for all these things from first hand knowledge. The visit tonight had awakened a world. of possibilities to April. With DeLain Thomas as her friend, to in- struct her in the things he knew—she was so eager to learn more. The peo- Ple who were coming seemed sudden- ly more blatant and tinny and false than usual. But they were at her door as quickly 2s swift motors could bring them. As they came in, laden with refresh- ments—for April’s failure to maintain a cellar was one of the things her movie friends could not understand in her—and saw that the company of whom April had spoken was DeLain Thomas, whoops of merriment went up. “No wonder she wanted to keep him hidden from us,” Val Valerie ex- claimed. “A girl can do just about everything here in Hollywood but dine tete-a-tete with DeLain Thomas. That'll absolutely ruin her.” DeLain Thomas grinned and offered Val’s shriller ones. Presently they been about.

For April realized with a feel- ing of acute distaste, that these peo- ple about her were on a very low level. She had lost sight of this fact in her efforts to fit into her new life, to do what was expected of her. And at first the crowd had been rather fun. But now the novelty was gone, and the dreary sameness of their efforts at jol- lity wearied her, April had taken an arm chair near the fireplace where she sat watching the gyrations of the others. Silly an- tics, too intimate dancing, all the same rigamarole that they went through at every party. April was heartily sick of it, she discovered. Yet she supposed she would have to go on. Morris Gol- den wouldn't let her stop. But she could at least read the books that De- Lain recommended and be building something. That would help her to get through the scenes that had become so distasteful. Mickey Johnson came over, drew up a chair and sat beside her, looking gloomily into the fire. “What's the matter, Mickey?” April injulged idly after a while. “I never knew you to get solemn before with your liquor.” “'Taint the liquor,” he replied, “I've been trying for a week to get a jag that would make me forget. Can't get drunk, though.” “Forget what, Mickey?” for she now saw that the man was_in real trouble. “Jean. She's going to divorce me. Says she won't stand for things any longer. Promised her I'd lay off the booze and the parties, but she wouldn't listen.’ Said I'd promised all that be- fore. Course I have, but this time I meant it, “Jean’s a wonderful woman, Narya. Just now realizing it. That’s what I mind—not the money. She thinks it’s the money. But it isn’t.” “Mickey, if you loved Jean why did you go about all the time with this crowd?” April asked. “Well, it’s a good crowd, ain’t it?” Mickey bristled. Then he dropped his head in his hands and April saw that he was crying. another trayful. heartily again when Val repeated her unbelievably risque stories, April looked at him, scarcely able to credit her ears and her eyes. It was as if the man had two natures, with the lower one now in control. Was this what he had meant when he had said that he had been his own worst enemy?

April's pride and joy. “Personally, I always feel that a patior can be put to no better use than to turn is into a barroom,” Val replied with injured dignity. “And after all, this is only a library, I can tell, because I. see a book. But since you insist, come on, Del,” and she seized an arm- load of bottles, one of which trickled a little trail over the carpet as she made her way toward the kitchen. ‘ Del Thomas followed, and Micky | Johnson, who could not be happy as| long as there was a partition between himself and the liquid refreshments.

You never heard come, Mrs. Smith?” or “Shall you be making a long stay here?” Anything to start conversation. “Shall we sit down on this sofa?” “Does this sort of party amuse you?” I find, myself, that “How do you do, Miss Brown” in a sort of murmur does as well as anything. It shows you heard the name, at any rate, and leaves the next remark to the scandal about her, did you?” April hadn't. “An@ I guess I've got a rotten | atreak in me.

So April told her she could go to bed, that she herself would make sandwiches later in the evening. “I hope you know more about sand- wiches than you do about drinks, then,” Val called out. “Don’t let the cook go till I’ve looked in the icebox. “Chicken, ham, bologna, lettuce, to- Matoes—oh, what a ducky salad!

And the outraged Jemima went with an audible sniff and a look at April that said plainly another occasion lke this would be the last.

The drinks were ready and were Tanged on a copper tray, which Del carried in, balancing carefully and the dancers irrigated their thirsty systems.

Soon this relay Was gone and Val started for the kitchen again. “Come ahead, Del, it’s too hard a job for a female, squeezing all those vege- tables. No, never mind, Narya, we can manage all right by ourselves, now that we've got the chart of the place.” And Del went.

The others occasion- ally would gather around, chanting in 7 |e rw / hymn style the words of some risque song. It was all very funny. April surveyed her house, that had beén so lovely. Disorder everywhere— cigarette stubs and ashes dropped all over the floor, a chair tipped over, a long scratch on the grand plano, from the heel of a girl who had elected to sing a song while sitting on it, sticky rings on table tops from countless glasses, a stain as big as April's head on the silk cover of one of the tables, where someone had spilled a glass. And of course, on every available surface, glasses emptied of their contents. The flowers she had bought for Thomas drooped fn the close atmos- phere, the fire had burned out long ago and had not, been replenished be- caues the wine-heated dancers found it superfluous. Chaos, where had been her lovely room, in which she had taken so much pleasure. At last they were leaving the less intoxicated ones assisting the others.

It may be mentioned, in- cidentally, that the laws referred to are those adopted by the Whist Club (New York), with the approval of the American Whist League, American Auc- tion Bridge League, the Knickerbocker Whist Club and practically every other influential card club in the country. These laws became effective September 15, 1927; they are wumiversally followed in this country and are quite generally used abroad. The first disputed law to be consid- ered concerns doubled contracts. Take as an illustration a love score and a contract of two Spades doubled and made. It has been argued that, as it takes four Spades to make game from a love score, and. Declarer has bid for only two, he can not score game. The answer is that it does not take four- odd to go game at doubled Spades, but that two-odd will do it. The case cited is an example of “doubling them éut” (an expression common in Auttion Bridge, used to apply to the case in which a Declarer goes game because he has been doubled, when he would not have done so undoubled). There evi- dently is confusion between a contract made with the help of a double, and one made with the help of a revoke penalty (referred to tomorrow). On the disputed point regarding dou- bling, the following extracts from laws 36 (a) and 36 (b) should be clear to any one who has taken the trouble to read them. (36-a) If Declarer makes his contract, his side scores in their contract score, the value, normal, doubied or redoubled, of the Made Contract. (36-b) Doubling doubles’ the normal value of the tricks of the Made Contract. “Made Contract” is defined in the laws as the number of tricks won by Declarer after he has won six tricks, up to and including the number of tricks named in his contract. The slam bonus, however, can not be obtained by aid of a double; “to score the premium, the slam must be contracted for. The slam value is not changed by doubling or redoubling” (Law 51-b).

PROSPECTS FOR PEACE CONSIDERED BRIGHTER Changes in Cabinet Personnel Are Reported Agreed On at Conferences. Mexico City July 26 (A.P.).—Pros- pects for a peaceable solution of the political crisis resulting from the as- sassination of President-Elect Obregon, appeared brighter today. Obregon leaders voiced their confi- dence that President Calles was making every effort to trace down those responsible for the slaying and to bring them to justice. Aaron Saenz, governor of Nueva Leon, and one of the acknowledged chiefs of the Obregon followers, declared that his partisans would support the president. Gov. Saenz has been mentioned as the most likely candidate for the provisional presidency when President Calles’ term expires December 1. His support of Calles therefore is considered significant and has revived the idea that the president may succeed himself provisionally if a way can be found under the constitution. The statement of Gov. Sagnz furthed eased the situation which for & time after the assassination was extremely tense because of the bitter Opposition between the Obregon ele- ment and the agrarians, the latter headed by Luls Morones, former secre- tary of labor in the Calles cabinet. El Paso, Tex, July 26 (A.P.).—Mexico City dispatches to El Continental today declared it was indicated after a con- ference of leaders of the Obregon party and President Calles that cabinet offi- clails would be nominated as follows: Interior, Emilio Portes: state, Arturo H. Orci; commerce, Gen. Perez Trevino, The meeting was attended by the present eleven aldermen belonging to Obregon’s party and decision was made to follow a policy of conciliation be- tween the chamber of deputies and the centro Onbrecontsta El Continental’s advices say the mayor, Jose Lopez Cortes, has promised his resignation after nine days of mourning. 1,800 on Ship Ashore Off Spitzbergen Safe — Oslo, Norway, July 26 (A.P.).—The 1800 passengers aboard the German mo- tor ship Monte Cervantes, which struck a rock in Bell Sound, Spitzbergen, yes- terday, tonight were relieved of all fears. The vessel, it was declared, was in no danger and would be able to resume its voyage southward Saturday or Sunday. The Russian ice-breaker Krassin, which rushed to the ald of the Monte Cervantes yesterday when the latter's SOS signals were picked up, was stand- ing nd helping to pump water from a fi ed compartment. Tro Americans, whose names are not known here, are aboard. Merger of Chrysler And Dodge Doubtful New York, July 26 (A.P.).—Invest- ment houses backing the proposed Dodge Bros.-Chrysler Corporation mer- ger were making desperate efforts to- day to obtain the deposit of sufficient Dodge shares to make the plan effec- tive. he time for depositing shares closing Saturday noon, and as there already have been two extensions of time, it was felt in Wall street that there would be no more, While virtually all of the class B stock has been deposited, about 10 per cent of the preferred and 4 per cent of the class A was ldcking tonight, short of the 90 per cent of each class of stock which Walter Chrysler placed as a minimum t& be deposited before the Chrysler Corporation would pro- ceed with the plan. Several bankers behind the plan re- garded the prospects of success as ex- ceedingly gloomy. HARRY R. FISHER DEAD. --—_- ----—= Prominent Member of Fraternities Will Be Buried Tomorrow. Harry R.

Friday, July 27, 1928, TUNNEY WINS. Gene Tunney remains the champion pugilist of the world, after a terrific battle with Tom Heeney, of New Zealand. Tunney’s superiority as a boxer and his greater reach won the day against bulldog courage. It was more than a boxing match, however; Tunney accepted Heeney’s tactics and made it a battle royal. At the end of the tenth round Heeney was pros- trate, with a badly cut eye and a nose that had been repeatedly hammered. But with astonishing stamina he returned to the center and delivered one or two stiff blows before the referee ended the bout and declared Tun- ney the winner. In at least one round Heeney had the better of the argument, but it was evident from the first that Tunney was more than a match for the “hard rock from down under.”’ Tunney was in perfect condition and used keen judgment in his ‘ fighting. Heeney pressed his antagonist as a rule, but Tunney stepped in at opportune moments and stopped the onset. In the infighting Tunney was much superior. One or two of Heeney’s rights were sufficient to have knocked out any one not hardened to punishment. Tunney winced, but only momentarily. The New Zealander must have discovered early in the fight that he was outmatched, but his courage was superb. He withstood shocks on the heart that must have been sadly de- moralizing, but he remained the aggressor almost to the end, and even then he fought like alion. It was no inglorious defeat, The public interest in this fight was some- what slack, as compared with the excitement that attended the Tunney-Dempsey fight, but those who witnessed last night’s bout were treated to as fine an exhibition of skill and eourage as has been seen for many a day. ——$$$—$ ee PRIVATE CAR PERQUISITES. There are railroad officials who pride them- gelves on never making use of private cars to wnich they and the members of their families are entitled. Others are abusing the perquisite for themselves, their families and their friends. As passes are forbidden by law, except to those who are included within the organization of the railroads, those who are invited to enjoy a de luxe ride in a private car must pay the regular passenger fare. But in the opinion of Mr. McManamy, of the Interstate Commerce Commission, it is a discrimination against patrons of the roads who travel in public cars to have others served at the same rates by ' Juxurious private coaches. Denouncing as wasteful and unlawful the extensive practice of roads of hauling the private cars of foreign lines free of charge, the commissioner points out the extent of the evil by instancing one road which in a single year had eight of its private cars carried a total of more than half a million miles on foreign lines. In one case the private car of the ‘president of one of the Eastern lines” had traveled con- tinuously over foreign lines for three years. These de luxe tours of private persons in the ears of railroad officials included Florida, Cali- fornia, French Lick Springs, Maine, Hot Sulphur Springs of Virginia and _ similar notable resorts in their itinerary. The remedy proposed is to curtail or cut off the travel of private cars over foreign roads except at regular rates and by cutting off perquisites for guests by forbidding travel in such coaches at the rates that prevail for ordinary cars. SYNCHRONIZED BROADCASTING. In January engineers of radio station WAIU, Columbus, Ohio, and KMOX, St. Louis, became interested in the possibility of synchronizing broadcasting from several stations on exactly the same wave length. Early in the month the project had reached a point of develop- ment where it: was ready for test. The report on the test, recently received by the Depart- ment of Commerce, says that synchronized _ broadcasting is being carried on ‘“‘with an en- tire absence of heterodyning.” | The public realizes: well that when two sep- arated wave lengths approach beyond a cer- tain point interference is set up that is most annoying. Wave lengths, must be separated satisfactorily or they must absolutely coincide, Synchronization of stations has been recog- nized as theoretically practicable. The trouble has been in obtaining absolute coincidence. WAIU and KMOX utilize a crystal to control their frequency which, in turn, is held accu- rate by a highly sensitive thermostatic con- trol device. ‘So far as we can determine from carefully placed observation points covering the territory between Columbus and St. Louis,” say station engineers, ‘‘the experiments have been successful to a marked degree.” eventually a practicable system can be worked rie 1c wis i - 7 a to on Ye: s ee 7. ¥ ad 7 out whereby chain programs can be confined 8 wave length, without distortion or in- -e, the problems of radio control will es east! ‘ Tt . + lee. ¥ Bag = : i , “a , i “i 4 i P pe | = vy KMO : _K ress is exclusively entitied .o -y use t or this paper, and also the loca) Daily Galy, ar... .37.00 . 3.50 .60 ly om One year... .38.00 Six months.. 4.00 Synchronizing two stations is a considerable _ problem.

OMINOUS CONDITIONS IN MEXICO. That dangerous cross-currents are at work in Mexico is indicated by the seclusion of President Calles and the virtual disavowal by the late Gen. Obregon’s closest friends of their first assertion that his assassination was in- spired by Catholic church influences. Although Calles in a recent statement reiterated the charge against the clergy, Obregon’s friends do not now hold this view, but are bitterly accusing Luis N. Morones and other labor leaders of responsibility for the crime, . The agrarians state that they do not even demand the death penalty for the murderer, as they hold that he was a mere tool of the labor leaders. A demand is made that the govern- ment shall eliminate all members of the labor party from official places, including the con- gress, President Calles is placed in an equivocal position by this demand. He has always en- couraged the labor federation and has given extraordinary powers to some of its leaders, If it should now develop that a class feud was the cause of Obregon’s taking-off, Calles will either be compelled to yleld to the demands of the agrarians or run the risk of being elimi- nated himself. Perhaps it is for this reason that he insists upon laying the crime at the door of the Catholic clergy, after the chief of police, Gen. Zertuche, Obregon’s devoted friend, modified his accusations against them, For several days President Calles has re- mained in the seclusion of his home, It is explained that. he is fatigued after his great exertions and loss of sleep following the assassination. Nevertheless his close retire- ment causes speculation as to a conspiracy against his life. He is a brave man, and his present course is so contrary to his usual con- duct that it is naturally assumed that he is aware of some deadly danger, possibly in- volving treachery among his followers. FRENCH COOKING. Maitre Escoffier, ‘“‘the prince of Parisian cooks,” whose menus have been likened by gourmets to the harmony of a Racine tragedy —without the tragedy, unless one eats too much—is coming to America as a missionary eager .to preach the blessings of the French culinary art. With him comes the famous silver saucepan in which he prepares the equally illustrious scrambled eggs, and in his button- hole he wears the red rosette of the Legion of Honor, which the minister of fine arts con- ferred upon him several months ago. M. Es- coffier, it is said, looks upon his mission as a crusade. The Americans, he believes, must be taught to appreciate proper cooking, such as only the French can produce, This is not the first time that the prince of Parisian cooks has invaded the United States. Several years ago a woman, whose special dishes were the talk of the boulevards, came to reform the American taste. Her coming was heralded far and wide. Her departure went unnoticed. What right have the French to suggest that Americans have little or no idea of cooking? They may not like American food. Americans do. M. Escoffier probably knows well how to prepare a sauce of piquant flavor and esthetic appearance unlike that which any American chef can prepare. But can he fry chicken as they fry it in Maryland? Does he know how to prepare buckwheat cakes to be served with maple syrup? What about corned beef and cabbage and hog’s jowls and greens? The French may tickle the palate of the average American tourist, but for every- day fare Mr. United States will take the dishes that his famous cooks in homes and hostelries North, South, East and West for 150 years have set before him. What is pate de foie gras as compared with diamond-back terrapin, as prepared and served by those whose an- cestors first learned of its delights ‘before the war?” COLOR IN PHOTOGRAPHY. A number of prominent sclentists, including Thomas A. Edison, have been invited by George Eastman, camera manufacturer, to witness the “most revolutionary development in modern photography” at his home next week. It has been known for some time that Mr, Eastman is interested in amateur color motion picture photography and tt is believed generally that he now is ready to demonstrate a thoroughly practicable process. If so, the development is important not only to the amateur photographic world but to the professional motion picture producer. Several processes have been utilized within the last few years with which to turn out a passably satisfactory color motion picture. None, however, has proved entirely successful. The illusion is not perfect. For brief flashes there is exhibited on the screen a reproduction of beauty in which the full color scale is ac- curately recorded, but soon the outlines blur. Modern color pictures are greatly superior to those of several years ago, but there still lies a long and probably rocky road before the dawn of the perfect color movie. If, however, Mr. Eastman has developed a process whereby the unskilled amateur can make movies with color fidelity it is likely that his process can be equally well applied to studio photography. The movies have been given a voice. Processes now are being perfected, utilizing the principles of the old-fashioned stereopticon, to give them_an accurate third dimension. When color, depth and voice are combined satisfactorily the movies will become a totally new art. CHICAGO'S COLLAPSED REGIME, ° The. resignation of .Michael Hughes, police commissioner of Chicago, may mean much and may mean nothing. Those whose pleasure it is to read into events an inner significance see in the abdication of Hughes the collapse of thé Thompson regime. Other officials of Big Bill’s cabinet will resign, they say, and finally Mayor Thompson himself will surrender the reins of office. Hughes, however, has been ill for many months, It is generally known that he failed to please Mayor Thompson. He gained public censure for not having made good his promise to rid Chicago of crooks within 90 days of tak- ing office. Nevertlreless it is quite possible that his resignation was tendered only because of his physical condition. William Hale Thompson unquestionably is a beaten man. For many months after he had regained the mayoralty he dwelt continuously in the spotlight. A ) e ‘ ge t Olt 7) i kVA : e - fe ae ew S Mares es Ah fe teks PEO wala Se Pe saan - 4 — : not change his famous “I do not choose” state- ment. “America First,” upon which Big Bill had hoped to ride to Nation-wide popularity, collapsed in ridicule. A special session of the grand jury denounced the “‘unholy alliance be- tween crime and politics” in the Windy City. The Chicago public is disgusted with an ad- ministration under which crime and vice has continued to prosper. Mayor Thompson's road, of late, has been rocky and he would be more than human were he not ready to quit. It may be that,Chicago is to have a new deal. Whether it will be better than the old, however, remains to be seen. Chicago has had reform administrations before, and they got nowhere. The element that grips Chicago is powerful and canny. It realizes that now and then it is discreet to let the reformers have their fling, remaining in the background until vigilance is relaxed and the way is open again for frontal attack. Not until the people of Chicago get together behind strong men can the city be cleaned up. NOBILE’S RETURN. Nobile and his rescued companions have ex- perienced a sad return to civilization, When the Citta de Milano docked at Narvik, Norway, yesterday, no officials were on hand to greet her, and the mooring rope thrown ashore was ignored by those lounging on the quay. Finally a member of the crew had to jump to land to assist In the mooring. No member of the res- cued expedition ventured upon the decks of the Citta de Milano, With portholes battened tight, darkness was awaited for the transfer of Nobile and his companions to the railway coach in which he is to complete the journey to Rome. Those who have made it their business to turn the Italia disaster to the discredit of Italy have done a good job. Their prepos- terous tales have taken root. Eventually it will be recognized that Gen. Nobile, sorrow- fully returning to report to his countrymen, was a most pitiful figure as he was forced to shun the public in this journey. For the time being he is an outcast, despised for an incl- dent over which he had not the remotest control, There must and should be an. official in- quiry. Nobile shares the responsibility for the disaster that cost so many lives. But he did not willfully send men to an inevitable death. The court of inquiry has a grave duty to perform in sifting out the causes of this tragedy and reporting them to the Until its findings have been made public, how- ever, Nobile is not a figure to or condemned, world. PITCH AN EXPLOSIVE. A most unusual and effective plea entered in the Federal District Court for Maryland by lying and answer barge Richelleu was cargo of pitch, in against it in several actions, has served to throw an entirely new light upon pitch. It was not known before that this highly inflam- mable substance was also explosive. Science thus incidentally enriched by facts that have been brought out tn these suits. The Richelleu was lying at a plier at Curtis Bay, and the stevedores were busy load- ing the cargo when In some manner there came an explosion that rocked the ship and cargo and caused some loss of life. Inasmuch as pitch was not theretofore known to be explosive, the court decided that neither the shipowners, the families of the geven who met their death, nor others who entered actions could be given re- dress at law. All seem to have agreed that the explosion resulted either from the lamps of the men or from an electric spark, but the railroad company alleged that it had not in any point been negligent, as the methods of taking on the cargo were those commonly used. Pitch dust, by common experience, was no more dangerous than coal dust. As the source of the danger was not even known to science the court held that the railroad com- pany should not be responsible. Therefore it was held not Hable either in culpable lack of knowledge or in failure to observe all pre- caution. Thus science has come to know more than ever was known before about the nature of pitch and this information will modify in im- portant respects the processes of production and handling of the article. to libels brought has heen the stevedores THE CLAY OF CARACAS, Clay as a compromiser served his day and generation, but his sagaclous proposals were as so many efforts to dam the Atlantic, and the inevitable deluge of the Civil War broke upon the land. No historian as yet appears to have properly grasped the comparison that might be set up between the younger Clay and the older, the Clay with enthusiasm for the liberties of the peoples of Latin America and the Clay whose forensic eloquence stirred the Nation in its pleas for abatement of the passions of sections and the adoption of a mid- dle ground in handling the problem of slavery. As the Clay of Caracas, Henry Clay may be awarded his chief claims to enduring remem- brance, despite all that history must ever re- late of him in the issue of sectional strife. This will doubtless be the case if the spokes- men for his claims below the border are true interpreters of his worth to the common cause of liberty upon the American Continent, In the great open plaza of Caracas, the capital of Venezuela, will presently be erected the bronze statue of Clay, which was provided for by act of Congress at its recent session, as a graceful tribute to the government of Vene- zuela for its gift of a statue of Simon Bolivar in 1921, which was erected in New York. Secretary Kellogg and the Commission of Fine Arts are now considering designs for the work, which must be that of an artist of this country. The profound influence exerted by Henry Clay during an era that was critical for South American liberties and the reliance that was placed upon his judgment by the “George Washington of South America” are the brilliant chapters in his biography which are lost sight of by many who are interested _merely in his failure to capture the presidency and who point to him as a shining example of futility. It is just such men of vision and human sentiment who most profoundly affect the course of history. Their lives inevitably work out their furtherance through fame, no matter how disappointed they may have been in missing the goal of ambition. | _ There is no existing tie between this country ‘and those to the south comparable to that which was woven by.

The big jobs are still held by men of sound character and great faith. The critics seem smart, but so does the clown; and the clown: doesn’t own the circus or direct it. The most remarkable achievement of science is snake-bite serum made from a horse. Think of finding some use for a horse.

To the Editor of The Post—Sir: I have supported the Republican party all of my Hfe,’ and stumped the country for its candidate ever since 1 was 18 years of age, and I am now 77, I am now in favor of the election of Gov. Smith of New York instead of Herbert Hoover for the following reasons: First—-I firmly believe that the in dictment of the Hon. Perry W. Howard is at the instigation of Herbert Hoover who is attempting in this manner to aid the lily-whites of the South to get » ¥ x Moton is a man who has not the respect of the rank and file of our race, be- cause he does not insist upon accord- ing the rights and privileges to our race that we are entitled to. In other words he is not a manly man.: Third—Because the Republican party during the past eight years has al- lowed. segregation to. increase in the departments, although the President and others in authority have kept promising that it should cease. Hoover abolished it in his department just be- fore the nomination, but I consider that another trick of his to get the colored vote. I truly hope that the colored citizens all over the country will vote for Smith instead of Hoover, not that they are Democrats, but to make an example of such Republicans as Coolidge and Hoover. Everybody knows that the Hon. Perry, W. Howard is as clean a man as ever entered poli- | tles, and this 1s an attempt by Hoover {ane hie ellewers:te-put an. ene to; the ine, his 1 ‘ Aa ae eae ‘vi ¢ ro Ftp. eS wy} es Sad, 2 =A Sy iad eee Tie dena ee it | y+ PRESS COMMENT.

But the sena- tor from.New Hampshire says his job at least requires him “to go about «@ great deal and get acquainted with a lot more Pullman porters.” That, at any rate, is not sidetracking. Pullman porters are great travelers.

The vehicle was knocked down at the entry port and transported. . to his capital in litters and there as- _ sembled in all its beauty. Naturally its owner wanted to ride in it, and so has launched the road-building pro- . gram.

Down at the National the other day a young fellow, friend of Steve Cochran, flicked his card on the managerial desk. It bore beneath the name, the designa- tion, “Song Writer.” “Have you heard my jazz?” asked the visitor. “I hope so," said Mr. Cochran. > > > > Dr. George Rockwell, the eminent physician, who was wont to prescribe laughter and mirth for the patients at Keith's Sanitarium, when that institu- tion was flourishing on Fifteenth street, has now turned publisher. “Ye Olde Mustard Plaster” is the monu- mental work issuing every now artd then from his laboratories. Therein he gives advice to the lowly and sick at heart. All rather good, too, funny and free. For hot weather, he advises the use of very little water. “Better still,” says the doctor, “none at all, for water is very heating as is proven by its extensive use in radiators and hot water bottles. If one must drink, it should be boiling water. “The germs which cause the stomach many complaints common to summer, feed, thrive and multiply by eating the lining of the stomach. Where boiling water is taken, the lining of the stom- ach is destroyed, leaving the germs nothing to feed upon and they starve to death. “Water for external use is beneficial and you should not overlook the cool- ing properties of the seashore, as a mouthful of salt water or an eyeful of anatomy will hurt no one.” . Aa * « Now comes the sad word that Win- throp Ames intends to disband his cele- brated Gilbert and Sullivan Opera Com- peny. If this is so, and it seems likely, a noble experiment has gone by the boards. In all the world of theatrical production there is no producer who has higher ideals than Winthrop Ames. Aiways there has been talk of art for art’s sake. Usually Art was the name of the producer—and the art for Art’s sake was Ofttimes, and only, box office success. In other words Art was out fo1 the money. {n the case of Win- throp Ames, a man blessed with a cer- tain amount of ready coin, and an un- usual appreciation of the finer things in the theater, also with a flair for success in his chosen field, he did not, as a rule, measure things by the mone- tary scale. So he cared not one iota whether the Gilbert and Sullivan re- vivals made money in the accepted sense of huge returns. All he wanted was reasonable support—enough to “carry on,” and this with low admis- sion prices. For threg years the troupe delighted New Yorkers and inhabitants of several other cities, including Wash- ington. Savoyards here revelled in the revivals of “Iolanthe,” “The Pirates of Penzance,” and “The Mikado.” Next season there was Ope of seeing “Pina- fore,” and other works of the famous English team. In order to keep within last bit of the ordinary bounds of reason, and not |' PRE SEQLEIGHL By JOHN ee ) eT” J. DALY lay the old operas on the shelf. Too bad, but it can’t be helped.

DAY IN STOCKS QUIET, WITH SALES 1,500,000 U.S. Steel and General Motors Lead in Substantial Ad- vance of Industrials. CALL MONEY PLENTIFUL Special to The Washington Post. New York, July 26.—The stock mar- ket appeared to be in a hesitant mood today, due no doubt to the uncertainty regarding the brokers’ loan totals to be announced after the close of trad- ing. Nevertheless, a fair number of leading industrials, under the leader- ship of United States Steel and Gen- eral Motors, secured substantial ad- vances over the previous closing levels. On the whole, losses and gains were about evenly divided for the day and neitner extended very far. Trading Was -extremely quiet after the first hour, the day’s turnover dropping below the 1 500,000 share level. The call money rate held at 5% per cent, with funds plentiful on the out- sid- at as low as 5 per cent. Specula- tors in stocks did not appear to be greatly interested in the firmness of time money, nor did they exhibit any concern over the increase in the rates for bankers’ loan acceptances an- mounced yesterday. Showing the strength of the market, recessions were quite promptly checked by unobtrusive but very strong re- Sistance and several selected issues ac- cumulated sizable gains and managed to hold most of them to the finish. American Smelting was up 4% net at the close; American Radiator. 4%; U. S. Steel common, 1%; Borden, 23%; Canadian Pacific, 24%; General Gas & Electric A., 414; General Railway Sig- nal, 2; Goodyear, 2%; Otis Elevator, 3; Penick and Ford, 2%; Radio, 2; Dela- ware & Hudson, 444; Studebaker, 1% and General Motors. Y%. New highs for the year or longer were attained by American Beet Sugar, At- lantic Refining, Savage Arms, Real Silk Hosiery, Paramount and General Gas & Electric A, but in most cases the early gains were not all held to the close. New lows were established by Lima Locomotive, Island Creek Coal, Eitin- ger Schild, Abitibi Power, Kansas City Southern preferred, Belding-Hemingway and Maytag preferred. There were traders on both sides ready to do business at a price. Only two groups of stocks held fairly well together—the oils and tobaccos. The former, with particularly brisk demand for Marland on its earnings statement. moved up modestly as the result of ad- vances in the price of gasoline and tin midcontinent crude, while some of the tobaccos prolonged the advances started yesterday. Recent cigarette price re- ductions, according to reports, have been as beneficial to the industry as its most optimistic leaders predicted. Among the pivotal industrials, Steel common again absorbed the bulk of speculative interest by reason of its ability to push ahead in face of irregu- larity elsewhere. Today's rise carried the old-line leader to new high ground for the movement. Buying was ascribed ir. some quarters as originating largely with Detroit interests, which have been mentioned prominently in market gos- sip for a year or so past. But the ma- jority opinion attributes strength in Steel to the expectation that the June quarterly earnings statement, due next Tuesday, will be decidedly satisfactory Expectation that the half-year re- port, due shortly, will compare favor- ably with that for the corresponding period last year, when $11.08 a share was earned for the stock, was put for- ward as the basis for strength in Amer- ican Smelting and Refining. Omission of the quarterly dividend of 50 cents a share due at this time on the common stock of Belding-Heming- way constituted another of the several pieces of unfavorable news coming to hand in the course of the day. Ster- Iing declined still further from its re- cent high level of around $4.88% for cables to $4.85 11-16, a new low for the year. Offerings were on so large @ scale that the market bordered on the disorderly at intervals. French and Italian rates were not disturbed in their market levels, but Belgian, Swiss and Scandinavian rates reflected in- creased pressure from many sources. Norwegian and Danish dropped a point each. Japanese also was in supply, yen falling 18 points to 45.44 for cables. Canadian eased a point to 99.95. | Wall Street Briefs New York, July 26 (A.P.).—The Fed- eral Reserve Bank of New York made mo change today in its rediscount rate of 5 per cent. June net operating income of the Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pa- cific moved up to $1,510,100 from $562, 523 in June last year, and for the half year showed an increase of $11,770,176 in contrast to $3,808,103 for the first half of 1927. June gross revenues were $14,131,518 against $13,320,143 in June last year. July business of the New York, New Haven & Hartford was running under a year ago, said E. J. Buckland, vice presi- dent, who estimated third quarter gross revenues would be 5 per cent below the 1927 period. Due to increased effi- ciency, however, net operating income would be about the same as last year The road’s bus operations are showing @ profit, but passenger business has been declining. Canada Dry Ginger Ale, Inc., earned $3.14 a share in the first half of 1928, against $2.77 a share on the slightly smaller number of shares outstanding in the first half of 1927. White Sewing Machine Co., Cleveland, earned $2.52 a share on the common stock, after preferred dividends, in the first half of 1928, against $3.12 a share in the first half of 1927. International Silver earned $2.90 a share on the common in the half year, in contrast to $7.05 a share in the first half of 1927. Public offerings is being made of 54,- 167 shares of common stock of the Per- fect Circle Co., Indiana, producer of piston rings, at $30 a Share. The shares are listed on the Chicago Stock Ex- change. June sales of Galesburg Coulter-Disc Co, rose to $420,087 from $271,598 a year ago. Plants at Galesburg, IIL, and Newcastle, Ind., are continuing on a two eight-hour-shift basis during July. BALTIMORE SECURITIES. altimore. rt ap. 26.

Chicago, July 26 (A.P.).—Speculators who have apparently overeached themselves in big selling of corn for July and September delviery made fiurried attempts today to escape from the predicament. reely as a result, September corn jumped up 5 cents Av bushel and July 4 cents, as compared with the day's lowest figures. Closing quotations on corn were unset- tled, at % to 1% cents gain over yestcr- day's finish. Wheat closed 1% to 2 cents net hisher, oats varying from % cent de- cline to 1% cents advance, and provisions at 20 cents off to 7 cents up. Affairs in the corn market were brought to a crucial stage by an order issued today from the Government grain futures admin- istration requiring a report on all individual open interests of 100,000 bushels or more in July corn. After the issuance of the order, previous sellers both of July and September, especially September, made haste to change their market position and reduce thelr com- mitments. This procedure was given addi- tional impetus by the fact that the July delivery today showed from the outset a notable upward trend, notwithstanding Ib- eral arrivals of corn in Chicago today, 423 cars, anc despite total deliveries of 431.000 bus nels of corn today on Chicago July con- tr The fact that July corn was at an un- usual premium of 13 cents over September today appeared to lend significance to the Government order for special information on the existing trade status, although offi- clals said there was no evidence of any manipulative activity in July and September corn because of belief that rural stocks of old corn had become unusually small as a result of cold weather and poor pastures during the spring. On the other hand, the good outlook for the 1928 new crop not yet available has brought about an extraordi- nary amount of selling, especially of corn to be delivered in September. Export buying of 1,000,000 bushels of North American wheat today lifted wheat prices after an early decline that was asso- ciated with favorable weather and crop ad- vices, lower quotations at Liverpodl and with an official estimate that the forthcoming larvest in Italy would yleld 24.000.000 bushels more than the latest previous esti- mate. On the decline, July delivery of wheat here dropped to a new low price rec- ord for the season. price fluctuations today were irre- » With cash offerings larger Despite higher quotations on hegs, pro- visions averaged lower as a result of noite ascribed to en Cash gral WHEAT— No, 2 red, 1.40; 2 Cc Onn ae. 2 mixed, 1.07%; 1.07! pag tf OA No. 2 white, 59: No. 4 white. 43.

The Heel of Achilles S a babe in arms, Achilles, so the legend runs, was dipped by his mother into the river Styx, that fabulous stream which flows between Life and Death. The immer- sion was to protect him against death by any living being. But the heel of the infant never went beneath the sur- face. And so, years later, Achilles was slain by a wound in his only vulnerable spot—the Heel of Achilles. There must be no Heel of Achilles— no vulnerable spot—in the investments which you choose for your savings of years. You cannot afford, for the sake of a problematical high return, to face the contingency of loss of income and a considerable portion of your hard- earned principal as well.

RAST 25 — WASHINGTON: FRIDAY. JULY 27, 1928. TUNNEY EXHIBITS PUNCH IN DEFEAT MPION’S BODY ATTACK SO Crowd Filters Slowly Into Stadium Rickard’s Defeat Is Apparent Early in Evening. Corbett and Belasco Among First of Notables There. By BRIAN BELL (Associated Press Sports Writer). % 7 ANKEE STADIUM, New York, July 26.—Early birds at the Tunney- Heeney championship bout flocked to the rightfield bleachers at the Yankee Stadium where Babe Ruth hits many of his home runs. A sign in big letters announced that they were 295 feet from the home plate —this for the benefit of the home runs clouted by Ruth and his fellows and ‘had no reference to the distance to the ring in which a boxing champion- ship of the world was to be decided later. The ring was placed behind the pitcher’s mound so that the first cash custoiners to put in an appearance were not so far away as they might have been if the rights and lefts had been thrown at the same spot to which the balls and strikes are tossed. Forty aluminum encased lights of 1,000-candlepower each cast their ra- diance on the ring resting 5% feet above the ground on iron supports. The ring was no stranger to the Yankee Stadium. It has been here before, one notable visit to the baseball park marking the knockout of Jack Sharkey by Jack Dempsey. When it is not visiting outdoors the ring makes its home at Madison Square Garden. Tex Rickard appeared at the ringside as early as 6:30 o'clock, The promoter, second only to Tun- ney as an interested party to the bout, chewed his big cigar and looked at the array of seats he hoped would be filled. He did not voice any apprehension that the custumers would not come, but he could not have been sure. As he ieft the stadium to attend to his other chores in connection with the bout, “Tex” remarked that it looked as if he would have a good evening if nothing else. David Belasco, who is to direct the atage work of Jack Dempsey, another good fighter, in a play to be produced in the late summer, was in his sev- enth row ring-side seat more than two Pours before he could hope to see any + al blows exchanged in the ring. smeramen fired at him and re- Pu. ers asked the stage wizard what he _— of the fight he had not yet see Outside the stadium the crowd was amall. The prospective spectators in the bleachers had made their bargain purchases of $5 seats selling for $3 and those seeking the high priced paste- boards had not put in an appearance. There seemed to be fully as many policemen as fight fans in the imme- diate vicinity, outside the gates. There: was no 2xcuse for any one missing his way as he sought entrance. Each gate was marked in huge letters. An airplane looked down for a moment, but soon flew away. It gave the crowd a thrill when it swooped down to a altitude of about 1,000 feet. A big segplane came along lateg, but remained much higher.

ROUND ONE, Tunney whipped a solid right to Heeney’s Jaw. The challenger ducked and swarmed into Gene with short left and right hooks to the chin that drove the champion to the ropes. Heeney shot over a solid right to the head on the break. Sticking to his right hand, Gene crashed two rights on Heeney’s Jaw, but a sweeping left hook almost bowled the champion from his feet. Tunney was out fast, stabbing now with his left, but Tom beat both Nands like a tattoo on Tunney’s chin as they swapped in close. Gene ripped a solid right to Heeney’s head, but itenever moved thé challenger and Tunney was on the run as Tom ripped after him, both hands flailing to the head. There was a bad bruise over Tunney’s left eye at the end of the round. ROUND TWO, Tunney, obviously startled at Heeney’s fierce offensive, started boxing the challenger. He shot his left to Heency’s head but could not keep the bulldog of the Anzacs away. Tunney blasted left and right into the sturdy head of the hard rock without causing a flicker of Heeney’'s eye lashes, Gene swapped with his challenger and they ripped left and right hooks to. the chin in a4 furlous exchange. Tunney sparred as Tom ripped in, When Gene’s left nook dropped low, Referee Forbes mentioned if and Gene smiled and asked for- giveness. A second later they were chasing each other along one side of the ring in a slugging exchange of head clouts that rocked both on their heels. The bell broke up the exchange as the crowd stood and roared its approval. ROUND THREE, Absolutely unawed by the power in Tunney’s newly-found right, Heeney plodded into a right-handed exchange with the title holder. Tom dropped his guard and stood before the champion, hands ready and daring another exchange Gene accommodated him and they cracked lefts and rights, short, vicious pokes that stung Jaw and cheek. Gene did not seem to like that and he bounced back on the defensive, spearing the challenger with a succession ol lefts as Tom stalked after him. Tunney slipped, to his head and nearly fell, but came back to firmer footing, been down and unhurt. Heeney slugged viciously while Tunney met his attack with solid left hooks to the body. ROUND FOUR, Rising in sympathy with Heeney’s unexpected determined crowd bellowed the invader on as he wh:pped a short left Gene's chin. challenger’s head back with a stinging left hook. Gaining the upper hand decisively for the first time in the fight, Gene threw a right into head with every ounce of his weight and strength behind it eyelids actually fluttered and Tunney pressed his crushing rights to the heart. Sensing the turn, without having onslaught, and right advantage with him to the ropes with a rocking volley to the head when Dempsey floored him last fall, Tunney fought danger but Heeney nailed him repeatedly on the head, the challenger’s onslaught. vainly to sway out The bell broke ROUND FIVE, Tunney smashed his right full under Heeney’s heart but the Anzac to like it and bounded in close to slug at the champion’'s body. a left and right into Tom's rugged head and biood drtbbled from the chal- lenger’s nose. Boxing cagily again on the cefense, his natural style, Gene prodded the Anzac with jolts to the head and body as Tom Sturdily plowed into whatever punishment came his way. in a clinch but was up without up to the bell. seemed Gene drilied a count. Tunney pecked at ROUND SIX, Tunney’s masterly defense had Heeney quite muddled now as Tom plodded tered by Gene's thudding right. The champion stepped in with a Dbullet-ilke left hook to the body and bounced his right again off Heeney’s corrugatea features. shorter, Tunney roughed it to the bell. ROUND SEVEN, Taking a breather, Tunney was content to maul with the challenger, kill- ing the effectiveness of Tom’s left hook by carrying his.right high against his cheek. As Tunney danced. about, spearing Tom with his left, the Anzac missea frequently, his short arms going by Tunney’s head. Tom caught the champion again near the ropes, Tunney's vital spot, and slashed a left and right to Gene’s head. Gene wabbied a bit and tore out of the precarious position s0 i fast that he landed in the center of the ring before Tom could get away from the ropes. at the bell. ROUND EIGHT, Freshened by half a bucket of water poured over his head and a new Nhalr comb, Tunney came out to hold the challenger helpless, Heeney's left eye swelled and nearly closed when something irritated it. Tom shook his neada* in desperation as he could hardly see from that eye. Finally he closed it ot his own. accord and tore into Tunney with one good eye. Quick to see his advantage, Gene held the challenger a moment, looked Over his difficulty ana then pumped lefts and rights to Tom’s head and body. Tom wobbled under the blows, put blood spurted from his nose ds ‘he lashed forward in one despairing effort. Tunney met his courageous attack. Tunney jolted Heeney steadily. despite his courageous onslaught right up to the bell, ROUND NINE, Hardly able to see from his eye, despite the ministrations, Hveney gallantly piled. into the champion. It Seemed dye from the tights had got on to Tunney’s gloves and into the challengei’s eyes. Tunney, a sportsman himgejf, stood and slusged with the challenger, but Tom got the worst of that, too, as ‘bunney’s knifing lefts drummed on the Anzac’s head, blood began to ooze from Heeney’s battered eye. A gory sight and becoming gorier, Heeney again summoned his strength for another surge and ripped his right and left to the champion's head. ROUND TEN, } Heeney’s eye looked almost normal as he came out doggedly to battle the un- marred champion. Gene grabbed Tom as the Anzac lunged forward anc sank a left and right in the body. The si.ap seemed to have disappeared from Heeney's punches and Tunney apparently had little desire to cut up the challenger further. Gene grabbed Heeney as the Anzac plunged in close and showered him with left hooks to the head and body. Tom reeled under full left and right hand clouts to-the head. Plodding. forward now by instinct Heeney ran into a bar- rage and went down under a right to the head., His seconds hed him restored for the next round. ROUND ELEVEN, Tom. came out with a left that missed and ‘Tunney. measured him for a final blow. Showing amazing recuperative powers, his head a mass of blood, Tom plunged. again into the champion and smashed with a right to the head. A right to the heart sent Tom reeling again. Tom could barely stagger in the close places. His back to the ropes, Tom blindly staggered forward. Tunney, half kidding, stabbed him easily with a left and let him get away, Gene flayed Tom about the head on the ropes and Tom reeled under the punishment. The chal- lenger was helpless and Referee Ed Forbes stepped between to halt the fray as Heeney collapsed. SIDELIGHTS OF THE BATTLE E. J. NEIL (A. P. Sports Editor). ANKEE STADIUM, New York, July 26 (A.P.).—For the first time in his career as heavyweight cham- pion, Gene Tunney, born and bred in Greenwich Village, tonight came back to is home town to defend the title against Tom MHeeney, New Zealand challenger, who plodded his way through Tex Rickard’s elimination tour- nament. The Anzac boasted an $144 -pound advantage over Tunney, scaling 20342 pounds to 192 for the champion. Tunney came into the ring a 3 to 1 favorite. cloak about his shoulders, peering into the crowd until the spectators roared so far Jack Dempsey, former heavy- weight champion, sitting at the ring- side of a heavyweight championship fight, and not participating for the first time in nine years, that Joe Hum- phreys, announcer, called him into the ring. The applause that sounded for Dempsey lasted five minutes and dwarfed anything that had gone be- fore. The Manassa Mauler, whipped by Tunney; shook hands with the cham- pion and wished him luck. They swap- ped rather formal smiles. Heeney never turned his gaze from the crowd as he stood in his corner, fidgeting from foot to foot, while Tun- ney sat quietly, the picture of confi- dence and calm. The burly Anzac climbed first through the ropes, the crowd rolled up a volley of cheers for him as the New Zealandev, a colorful figure, clad in a cream Maori cloak, with black feathers, turned under the blazing light and smiled his appreciation. The cheers that greeted Heeney were nothing compared: to the volume of sound that rolled back and forth across the big ball yard as Tunney, clad in a simple purple robe with scarlet trim- mings, appeared in the ring.

ANKEE STADIUM, New York, July "26 (A.P.).—After’ defending iis heavyweight title like a true champion here tonight,’ Gene first paid a glowing tribute to the rugged game- ness of Tom Heency, his opponent, over whom, he scored a technical knockout in the eleventh round of their fifteen- round bout and then he broadcast the following message to the. world: “Il in- tend to remain in the fight business,” “I am very gratified to have won,’ Tunney exclaimed when.he had fd sod his dressing room. only after a large detail of police fought a way for him through a cheering crowd which num- bered thousands of his ‘admirers. Tunney was greatly .concerned over Heeney’s condition and, though he was happy over his victory, his joy increased when word came from the challenger's quarters that the New Zealander was not tn serious shape, “I.made Heeney fight my fight tor me,” Tunney said when he was asked about:the most important factor in his victory. “ft almost knocked Heenevy down in the first round,” he contiuned, “and when & saw what a tough fellow. he was, I decided to center my attack on his body. He was too courageous to be Knocked out with one punch, It took a. good many hard rights to his body before he weakened. “His habit of coming in at me was also of great assistance to me. His rushing just added so much more force to my’ blows and he was weakened by every one of them. “I thought the referee should have stopped the contest in the eighth round when I paralyzed Heeney’s optic nerve with a hard right-hand punch which landed just above his eye. I had cut that organ with a similar punch earlier in the bout.” Tunney indignantly denied the charges made by Heeney’s handlers at the end of this round that he had poked his gloved thumb in the chal- lenger’s eye. “Tt was a hard, clean right hook to Heeney’s head that started his blink- ing,” Tunney said. Tunney then went on to explain that he fought his battle according to the plan he outlined early in May when he went to Speculator and started training. 2 “There was no other way to fight, Tunney went on. “Just wear Heeney down, until I had sapped his strength and slowed him down. Heen ty was no Jack Dempsey in there tonig. 1%. I was never in danger and none. of. his punches distressed me in the least. “He had nothing I was afraid of and I was confident from the first. round on that he would neyer go the full -distance with me chopping away at his head with my left and — pounding at. his body. with my rights. 4,:.

Five minutes after he had reached his quarters,’ Tom, stripped to the hide, was a far different picture from the pitiful figure that had half dragged itself from the ring.. His face bathed and the flow of blood from his numer- ous wounds staunched, .Tom walked about the room, eating oranges and seeking to ward off the sympathetic advices of his three managers—Charles Harvey and John and Bernard Morti- mer. “That bloomin’ thumb—why 1 know I was leading,” said Heeney more in the tone of a confident boxer starting a fight than one who had just been rocked into unconsciousness. “TE couldn't see minute, .My right eye was affected by the thumbing and. before I could get straightened out Gene had me a blimy sight. ‘The punch with his thumb curled my_ upper eyelid down and under and. blink- ing couln’t fix it. It didn’t uncurl until after Gene had cracked me with that bloomin’ right.” The conquered challenger strolled about the room munching half oranges to soothe his cut, bruised lips. There was no sign of blood then and his slashed left eye had been .deftly taped so that his sight from the _ battered optic. was half normal. “Tom fought a wonderful fight and I Know he would have won had not Tunney’s thumb piked him in the eye,” moaned Charley Harvey, Heeney’s American representative. “He was way ahead we figured and we had it all figured for him to con- tinue keeping on top of Tunney and making him back up. Tom was fresh when the eighth round opened and kept telling us he never felt better in his life.” ‘ The only time Tunney’s prowess was mentioned was when Bernard and John Mortimer, Heeney’s British managers, pulled the pudgy Anzac aside ond as- sured him together that “you were fighting the world’s champion tonight and your showing was no disgrace.” BILLY.

THE: ‘WASHIN GTON POST: FRIDAY. JULY 27, —— 1928, ILDEN AND LACOSTE OPEN DAVIS CUP PLAY TODAY en BD lisorican Ace May Retire | If Beaten Match Holds Hopes of U.S. Regaining Cup From French. Cochet Heavy Choice to Triumph Over Hennessey. ARIS, July 26. (A.P.).——Big Bill Tilden, American tennis ace, and Rene Lacoste, French master, will face each other across a net at the Auteuil Stadium at 2 o’clock tomorrow afternoon in the opening match of the first Davis cup challenge round ever held in France, and one which will go far to decide the custody of the cup. It also may mark the last meeting ot these two great stars at least for some time to come, judging by statements from them today. While Rene reiterated his announce- ment that he would now go to the United States to defend his American championship, thus ending any hope of, another Lacoste-Tilden battle this season, Big Bill made the surprising declaration that, if he makes a poor showing in these Davis cup matches, he may retire from play at the end of the year. “No, I am not thinking of turning professional,” Tilden told the Associat- ed Press, “but if we should fail to win back the J avis cup this time I feel some one else should try it next year.” Although Lacoste has been victorious over Tilden the last four times they lave met, America’s eight-times cham- pion has the entire tennis world of Paris guessing, and there is none will- ing to prophesy he is going down to de- feat. ‘The result of their match Its seen here as an important indication of how much of a chance the United States has of recapturing the cup. Concerning the other singles match tomorrow, in which enri Cochet is to meet John Hennessey, there has heen less speculation, as it is regarded hereabouts as almost a certain victory for the French- man. The smiling young Hoosier was able to trim Henri in the United States championship tast year, however, and is hopeful he can do it again. Neither the French nor the Ameri- can doubles teams, which meet in the third match of the 3-out-of-5 series for the cup, have yet been chosen, choice depending on the outcome the two singles matches tomorrow. It is known that, should France be lead- ing by two matches none at the end of the first day's play. Jean Borotra and Jacques Brugnon would have the cal! in the doubles, giving Cochet and La- coste, the singles aces, a rest until Sat- urday. George Lott and John Hennessey ap- pear to be in line for selection as the American doubles team, in which case the young player from Indianapolis, who was the hero of the interzone final against Italy last week would be bear- ing the main burden and playing every one of the three days. With the younz- Sters in. the doubles, also, Tilden would be able to concentrate on his :mpor- tant duels with Lacoste and Cochct, with one off-day intervening for rest of ‘With the reinstatement of Tilden yesterday following upon the ap- plication of pressure by the Ameri- can Ambassador to France, box office receipts for the challenge round took a decided jump today and it now is expected that more : than -7,000 spectator, will attend RR eS ae el te | awoR LEAGUE RESULTS | AMERICAN ASSOCIATION.

EMPTY SEATS GREET THE FIGHTERS Crowd Slow to File in Park; Bleachers First to Fill. CONTINUED FROM PAGE 13. the crowd was all for the little fellow. The bleacher crowd grew and soon looked like the baseball crowd on holiday. These bleacher f-ns were not the farthest removed from the scene of the fray. Roofs of apartment houses blocks away from the staduim had full quotas of optimistic persons who might or might not see something for noth- ing. With numerous predictions of a “financial flop” staring the bout in the face there were some 15,009 persons in the far away bleachers early in the evening. Bleacher fans at fights, as those at baseball games, contribute the least to the exchequer, but Promoter Rickard at least had a start toward the 88,000 he hoped would show up, He could have found many willing to wager that they would not, in spite of the good start. James J. Corbett, who won the heavyweight title from John L. Sulll- van 36 years ago, was an early arrival at the ringside. He posed for, photogra- phers wearing a bright checked sweat- er. “Gentleman Jim” was on record as predicting a smashing Tunney vic- tory. Tunney is sometimes called “Gen- tieman Gene” and has often been com- pared to the master boxer of the '90’s. Sammy Mandell, lightweight champion, must have looked at the ring with some affection. He gave Jimmy MeLarnin a fierce beating within its confines, Perhaps the loudest gong in the world sent cold shivers up and down the spines of the customers as the first of the preliminary boxers crawled in the freshly resined ring to offer the first entertainment on the program. Joe Humphreys, the veteran announcer, was in good voice, although some of his friends tried to “kid” him by yelling “louder,” as he made his first an- nouncement of identities, weights, etc. Most of the crowd was still far away in the bleachers. The crowd was estli- mated at 20,000 when the first gong sounded. As the opening preliminary was fought out, Jim Corbett left his seat and went over to shake hands with David Belasco. Jim, an actor in his own right, was warmly greeted by the producer. The gong, which was really a bell big enough to come from the steeple of a country school house, seemed even louder as it warmed up to its task. There was no chance that any one McIntosh Wins Main Bout at Barracks Trumpter McIntosh won over Corpl. Plaisted by points in a six-round bout as the feature in a card of four at the Marine Barracks .ast night. This bout was the longest of the program, the other three gong but three rounds aplece, Private Alley scored the only knock- out of the evening when Private Ben- nett went down for the count in the second round of the three-round go. Corpl. Peterson outpo/nted Private Fay in three rounds, #s did ‘Private Ure- drec over Private Morris. The bouts were part of the Marine Barracks smoker, which included ex- cellent receiving by radio of the cham- pionship bout between Tunney and Heeney. War Netmen Easily Defeat Navy, 4 to 1 War netmen scored easily over Navy yesterday, 4 to 1, in an interdepart- mental Tennis League match. Navy flared somewhat in the third set before pushing over its only win of the afternoon, Rock and Cummings win- ning by scores of 6—3, 7—9, 6—2, in the fourth set. Following are the results: Hobbs and Hills (W) defeated Bates and Wilson, 6—3, 6—2; Paschal and Buck (WwW) defeated Train and Wilkinson, 6— 6-— Thomas (W) defeated ‘Gifford —6, 6— k and Cummings ie defeated Foulors and Brooks, Collins and Waldron (W) ow ery Hoover and Harrill. 6—1, 6—. — ome wereee — in the park would fail to hear the bell. The choice seats were attracting occupants but the crowd on the surface of the infield and outfield called the “ringside” was many thousands short of capacity as the second preliminary got under way. After darkness settled over the bat- tleground the sky seemed dead black in contrast to the bright lights below. Apprehensive customers looked sky- ward in some alarm but weather-wise folk insisted it could not rain. John J. McGraw, manager of the New York Giants, who would like to visit the Yankee Stadium to play a world’s series for baseball’s biggest prize, came as a fight fan ton'ght. He seemed to cast a critical eye at the abuse the beautiful turf was suffering from careless heels. Eddie Forbes, who had crawled into the ring, when it was announced that the main event woulc be put on ahead of earlier expectations, retired when the semifinalists appeared. This was the tip-off that Forbes, former fighter and newspaper :nan, would be the third man in the ring with Tunney and Heeney. Lou Magnolia, whom many expert ob- servers had predicted would be the most probable choice as referee for the cham- pionship go, was tl.e referee in the seml- final, Before the semifinal drew to a close most of those who were coming had claimed their seats. The vacant seats were not so conspicuous now, and, al- though the crowd was far from capac- ity, it was far greater than most of the forecasts had suggested. There was a yawning space back of the home plate, but other unoccupled seats were not grouped in the stands toward the front. BELL IN 10TH PROLONGS FIGHT Heeney Revived But Referee Humanely Stops Bout. CONTINUED FROM PAGE 13. larly under the ribs on the left side, swept in on his only really effec- tive punch of the fight, just before the bell rang. It was a right swing to the chin, and as it caught Tun- ney the champion’s back sagged to the ropes, and he was too badly stunned to attempt to escape for an instant. What might have happened is of no importance, because the bell parted them and ended Heeney’s chance, Tunney walked out of the ring with- out a scratch. He hadn’t caught more than a dozen punches, most of them glancing «wipes which grazed him or clubbed him on the ears s he mis- judged his timing in attempting to step inside the arc of the swing. Heeney’s chin was gashed, his nose was drooling, and with the flow from these wounds and the gash in the eye- lid Tunney’s darting mitts acted as paint brushes. Heeney’s men would swab him off, but in a few seconds he would again be facing Tunney through a crimson film, The body attack served its purpose in the end, wearing Heeney down s0 that he lacked the strength to wave his sinewy arms as threateningly as he had earlier in the bout. Tunney was moving in more daringly with shots at the face, and instead of glancing as some of them did in the opening forays, they were crashing through with stun- ning force, Tunney’s legs anu his talent for using them in going to the right and left instead of retreating in a Straight line backward also helped to wear Heeney to exhaustion, for as Tom missed his punches and went plodding after Tunney he was attacking antenanted areas and Tunney was chopping him on the head from the sides. The fight will be recorded not only as @ knockout against Heeney’s gen- erally formidable record, but also as the first knockout Tex Rickard ever received at the hands of his public. The mournful numerals of the financial statement will not be fully available for 24 hours so, but the crowd did not ap- pear to exceed 50,000 customers of both cash and honorary types and the re- ceipts are reported to have fallen be- low $500,000, the first time that one of Mr. Rickard’s heavyweight productions had failed to draw a million or more since the first million-dollar production involving Carpentier and Dempsey in 1921. Rickard’s firm, the Madison Square Garden Corporation, will have to settle a loss of several hundred thousand dol- lars. —_— a —- for-any man to be out - driving with a squeal of brakes: she stopped night for the Jones’s to: have their first baby?” it was raining buckets... a lashing vale... right off the Cape she blew...it was no night but.time and -the stork wait for no man... and all of .a- sudden. here eomes Doc Bigelow’s Nash slithering . up to the F.

> e ‘ { 13 a CLAUSES FOR ZN IN CONTRACTS: MEET REALTOR OPPOSITION Taliaferro’s Plan Is Declared by President Miller to Be “Useless Burden.” COMMISSIONER CITES BUYERS’ COMPLAINTS Holds Inclusion of Change He Proposes to Be as Vital as Clear Titles. Suggestion of District Commissioner Sidney F. Taliaferro that zoning classi- fications be included in real estate con- tracts, met with disapproval yesterday by William C. Miller, president of the Washington Real Estate Board. Mr. Miller, in disapproving of the sugges- tion by the Commissioner, declared that if adopted it would only place an added burden on the real estate agent. He asserted that there is nothing to fear in accepting the word of reputa- ble realtors as to the classification of property which they are selling, and added that if a person deals with a “curbstone broker,” who would mis- represent the zoning, he does so at his own risk. Since “zoning laws have introduced an entirely new element in the owner- ship of land,” all real estate contracts, certificates, and sales should clearly show the zoning classification of the property in question, Tallaferro de- Clared yesterday. Taliaferro, who is a member of the Zoning Commission, stated that per- eons appearing before the com- mission “are heard to say that they purchased real estate with the un- derstanding that it was zoned for a certain character of use, and later dis- covered they were misinformed, or fre- quently state that they purchased real estate under the impression or under- standing that it was going to be changed within a short while to some goning classification which would make it more valuable than the classi- fication existing at the time of pur- ohase. “These are usually loose expressions, which probably have little foundation, and it is, of course, impossible for any person to guarantee what changes in zoning may be made from time to time by the Zoning Commission. Courts Uphold the Law. “However, the incidents referred to suggest the possibility and perhaps the desirability of some amendment and addition to the usual sales agreements respecting real estate and to the certifi- cates issued by real estate title com- panies.” Commissioner Taliaferro pointed out that the laws respecting the zoning of real estate, which give authorities pow- er to specify and limit the building heights, character of occupancy and area of occupation, are of recent origin, but the principles of the laws have been tested in the courts and sustained. “Heretofore,” Commissioner Talia- ferro stated, “it had been the effort of the would-be purchaser of real estate to make sure that he obtained a good legal title and that the’property was free of encumbrances, including taxes. Common Practice of Agents, “Tt is a common practice for real estate title companies to report as to these items and also to any covenants running with the land, which would affect and restrict the enjoyment of the property by'the purchaser. -“It has been also the common prac- tice of real estate agents to include in agreements for the purchase of real estate a statement as to warranty of title, as to existing encumbrances and as to covenants running with the land. “Zoning laws have introduced an en- tirely new element. It is probably of almost equal importance to the pur- chaser of real estate to know whether, under the law, it may be used for resi- dential or business purposes as it is for such purchaser to know that he ob- tains a good fee simple title to the land.” Would End Uncertainty. Commissioner Tallaferro concluded: “In order to avoid uncertainty, dis- putes and perhaps litigation, it would seem to be highly desirable for pur- chase agreements in respect to real estate, and for the certificates of all real estate title companies in the Dis- trict of Columbia, te carry a simple statement as to the zoning’to the real estate, which is the subject of such agreement or report, as, for instance, ‘Zoned First Commercial C Area, 90- foot height; lot occupancy, 90 per cent. ” Freed After Threats Against Policeman Judge Isaac R. Hitt yesterday ac- cepted a recommendation of mercy from Assistant United States Attorney Ralph Given and released Robert M. Cheshire from jail on his personal bond, Cheshire was ordered to post a peace bond of $100 after he was convicted of making threats against the policeman who had arrested him for reckless driv- ing.

Tydings (Democrat), of Mary- land, already is making prepartions for another fight against the Stalker farmers market bill, it was learned yes- terday. The bill, which authorizes $300,000 for the establishment of the farmers market in the southwest section of the city, passed the House at the last ses- sion, but was blocked in the Senate by Senator Tydings and his colleague from Maryland, Senator Bruce, These two conducted a filibuster against the measure which continued to the end of the first session.

Brown, chief of the Bureau of Effi- clency. The Commissioners wrote him, Tydings said, that they had never en- dorsed any of the market bills which have been introduced in Congress. Mr. Brown, Bureau of Efficiency head, asserted, he said, that the Stalker bill was “unjust and unfalr.” “We have won our fight,” Senator Tydings said yesterday. “That market will never be built in the Southwest.” Clash, The Stalker bill was sponsored in the Senate by Senator Glass (Democrat), of Virginia.

Meantime, the business men of Southwest are going ahead and mak- ing preparations to provide facilities for the market center in that section.

Rheubottom said he had no intention of discredit- ing the flag, and that he was sorry. He said his wife had tied it to the iron when he told her that he should have a piece of red cloth on the end to comply with the law, Navy Is Distributing Long Due Decorations How Interests Transmission of 128 foreign decora- tions and awards to naval officers fol- lowing lifting of the ban on receipt of these by Congress, was begun yesterday, by the Navy Department.
