POLICE FORCE HELD TOO SMALL BY SOME First of Series of Articles on Situation Points to Need of Drastic Action. (Following is the first of a series o/ articles By the automobile editor of The Post dealing with the local traffic situation. The second article will ap- pear in The Post tomorrow). By WILLIAM ULLMAN, What’s wrong with traffic conditions in Washington? This question, uppermost in the minds of motorists and other observers, is being asked more and more Insistent- ly since the amended motor vehicle regulations became effective. In some quarters, the blame is placed upon the Pclice Department; in others, motorists themselves are charged with being at fault, while still other observers believe that the cause is a combination of these and several other factors. When the new regulations were adopted, promise was held that many of the snarls would be eliminated from Washington traffic. But they re- main, and one daily sees cars speeding dangerousiy across intersections, ignor- ing stop signs, starting on the amber light and indulging in many other haz- ardous practices which go on aa if the National Capital had taken few if any. steps to correct conditions which should not be allowed to exist. Hold Some Police Indifferent. All who are interested in safe and easy motoring are anxious to see an improvement of conditions in Washing- tion. They see no reason why either pedestrians or motorists snould be sub- jected to unnecesary danger or incon- veniencé on the streets of a city which has adopted so many sound measures designed to smooth the bath of traffic. Those who blame the police for de- linquencies which complicate traffic in Washington believe that greater dlli- gence on the part of the entire force would go a long way toward removing many of the obstacles which now lie in the way of smoothly flowing traffic They assert that indifference to offend- ers characterizes many members of the police force. Drivers approach intersec- tions and bear down upon pedestrians with loud and insistent horn blowing, they say, take the right of way from other drivers repeatedly, and commit innumerable other offenses against common decency and the rules of the road without the slightest rebuke from the police. Pedestrians Rights Ignored. Police have stood complacently by, they declare, while cripples and aged men and women have attempted re- peatedly to cross a street although the CONTINUED ON PAGE 8, COLUMN 3.

The Republicans not only intend to campaign in the South, but they have given it their first financial attention, it was indicated yesterday in the first report of collections and expenditures made public by the Republican nation- al committee. An item of $5,000 is listed as an ad- vance to Horace A. Mann, who main- tains a Southern “contact” office in the Munsey Building. If Mann has any title, it has never been announced. Neither was his association with the committee announced, although the ar- rivals and departures of others con- nected with the campaign are regularly referred to. Even after Mann’s activities became known, there was a tendency at Re- publican headquarters to express igno- rance of him or his work and on one occasion a representative spokesman denied that he was connected with the campaign. It has come to be fairly well Known, though, that Mann's of- fice is to dea] with the Southern sit- uation, particularly, if not exclusively, the bolting Democratic phase of it. The $5,000 is listed as “advance expenses.”’ It is the only sum of its kind and size listed in the total expenditures of $48,317.04 up to and including July 31. Collections to that date totaled $98,379. The beginning of the period covered in the statement is not given, but is pre- sumed to be from the time headquar- ters were opened in the Barr Building early in July.

Mrs. Wilson died instantly, one bullet having pierced her heart and another her lungs. McArthur slumped to. the pavement dead, two bullets in his brain. Miss Pearl Warren, a sister of the dead woman, said she and Mrs. Wil- son were discussing a dress in the dis- play window of a store when McArthur approached. He had been very friendly with Mrs. Wilson for several months, but had quarreled with her recently, Miss Warren said. A brief argument ensued during which McArthur drew a revolver and fired two shots. As Mrs. Wilson fell, he lurched to the curb 10 feet away and fired two bullets into his brain.

Paris Reds to Ignore Ban on Demonstration Paris, Aug. 4 (A.P.).—The decision by Paris Communist leaders to ignore a police order forbidding them to hold a demonstration tomorrow at Ivry, a suburb of Paris, failed to cause special uneasiness in official quarters.

Escaped Madman Sought As Armed Robber of Store Police Believe Robert Evans Who Burst Bonds at In- sane Asylum Was One of Two Who Held Up Confectioner at Pistol Point. One of the two men who yesterday morning tied up and robbed Fred W. Boone, confectioner, in his store at 2103 Pennsylvania avenue northwest, ls believed by headquarters detectives to have been Robert Evans, 23 years old, bandit and patient at St. Eliza- beths Hospital, who escaped Friday night from the hospital. The two robbers escaped with $100 in bills and a $50 check which they took from Boone’s pockets. The con- fectioner was unlocking the door to his establishment preparatory to open- ing it up for the day when the two men, unmasked and with pistols in hand, approached him and ordered him inside to a rear room, where they tied him up with the strirfgs of an apron used by Mrs. Boone when she works behind the counter. The bandits then went lefsurely about rifling their victim’s pockets after commanding -him to keep quiet under pain of death. After getting the $100 in cash and the $50 check, which was unindorsed, the two men fled. Boone after twenty minutes of struggling freed himself and called the police. He said one of the bandits had the appearance of a convict just out of jail. | This diescription of the bandit led detectives to suspect Evans. Evans escaped from St. Elizabeths while at- tendants were taking him from the surgical room to a waiting automo- bile. He broke the leather thongs which bound his arms to his side and ran. His attendants gave pursuit, but were outdistanced. All policemen on duty were. given a description of the patient and ordered to be on the lookout for him. Detec- tives O’Dea and Cullinane, of detective headquarters, who are investigating the Boone robbery, are working on the theory that Evans has a pal in this city and that together they held up the confectioner. | Last January Evans held up a jew- elry store on Ninth street and escaped with $3,000 worth of jewelry.

NEW YORKERS KEEP MITCHEL FIELD VIGIL storm in the North of France Adds to Danger if Men Really Turned Back. (Associated Press.) Forty-eight hours have passed since Majs. Idzikowski and Kubala, hopped off from Le Bourget Air Filed. They carried fuel sufficient for a continuous flight at high speed of 48 hours. It was estimated that by traveling at low speed they could remain in the air for 86 hours. This means that at 11:46 p. m. Sat- urday (Eastern standard time) they had passed the 48-hour mark. Each | hour, therefore, puts a heavy strain on Four Are Prostrated, Despite the small thread of hope to friends of the expedition still cling. The Norwegian tank steamer Aztec wirelessed that an airplane. had been sighted headed northeast at a point 463 miles due north of the Azores and 1,284 miles from Le Bourget. This wag 138 miles west by northwest of the point where Ruth Elder was forced down and rescued last year. The identity of this plane has not been established with absolute finality. The evidence is overwhelming, howe ever, that it was the Marszalek Pilsud- ski, The same is true of the plane ree ported to have been sighted two hours and twenty minutes later by the Brit- ish ship Amakura. The fact that the plane was headed, not toward New York, but toward Ire- land, has added the final touch of mystery to a fiight which was planned and carried out from the beazinning behind a heavy curtain of secrecy which Storms on Eastern Atlantic. Paris, Aug. 4 (A P.).—Anxiety for the Polish transatlantic fliers increased toe night with reports of storms and vio- lent squalls over the coast of northern France. Friends of Majs. Kubala and Idzi- kowski refused to believe that the filers had turned back toward Paris. In any case their retreat would be blocked by adverse weather conditions. The officials of Le Bourget Air Field evidently share a widespread view that the positions given by the steamships Aztec and Amakura were inaccurate. The hangars have been closed up and there has been no action to light the revolving beacons. Much speculation ha: centered around the Amakura’s report that the plane had com from the west and turned northward around the vessel. It has been suggested by aviation ex- perts that the fliers saw the ship from a .distance and turned back to show themselves, afterward swinging north to resume their course toward Halifax. The fact that no storm was reported and that the airplane was flying with- out appagent difficult; has strength- ened this argument. Sighted 24 Hours Out.

The big four-ton sesquiplane, which Carried its own weight in fuel and crew, had demonstrated in tests that it was able to maintain a speed of 106 to 110 miles an hour. When sight- ed by the Aztec the plane was fiying at only 75 miles an hour. On that Ddasis it is thought that they must have encountered headwinds, although the Weather Bureau here reported that the wind was partly behind them in the morning. The decision of the fliers not to take a radio outfit is cited as another illustration of their decision to see the flight through. They considered tak- ing a small radio, but preferred to use the space and weight for carrying gas. - Aviation experts also régard as un- likely the theory that they lost their Way through the failure of their com- pass. The Marszalék Pilsudski carried three compasses, one of them similar to that which Col. Lindbergh used on his filght tc Paris. The other two were French compasses. The filers’ intimate associates admit that they are puzzled by the reported speed of 75 miles an hour when the Plane last was sighted. They say that there must have been a favorable wind at the start and that much of the fiying was done at a speed exceeding 100 miles an hour. Even if the pilots lost their way and came down when their fuel gave out, it is emphasized that they still would have several good chances of rescue. ‘Their reservoirs are equipped with valves which are supposed to dis- charge all tanks within 40 seconds. Theoretically this would enable the plane to float, although many pilots are inclined to discredit this possibil- ity. They say that the weight of the motor would tip the cockpit in such a way that the craft's floating qualities would be greatly diminished. In addition, for the purposes of any last emergency, the filers carried two small rubber boats. Mystery Shrouds Flight. London, Aug. 4 (A.P.).—The flight of the Polish transatlantic plane Mars- galek Pilsudski entered the mystery phase tonight. As the long hop entered the fortieth hour meager dispatches received from vessels at sea telling o1 the sighting of a plane, presumably the Polish one, suggested the possibility that the ma- chine may have turn-d back toward Europe or have lost its way en route to the United States. The Norwegian tank steamship Aztec reported by wireless that she had sighted a biplane, presumably the Marszalek Pilsudski at 2:40 a. m. Greenwich meridian time, in latitude 44:22 north and longitude 24:08 west. This would place the Polish airmen about 200 miles north of the Azores at that hour. The Aztec’s message said that the plane passed “in direction 75 degrees,” in nautical language indicating that the machine was traveling east by north. Seen Again Nearer Europe. At 5 a. m. (Greenwich meridian time) the British steamship Amakura reported sighting a plane, also appar- ently the Marszalek Pilsudski, in lati- tude 46:20 north and longitude 20:42 west. This position placed the Polish plane almost 4 degrees, or sevetal htin- faa dred miles, nearer Europe, 2 hours and iaf¥ 20 minutes after being sighted by the t Ye Pe au ‘Smenvude by the Aztec. The Amakura also reported that the plane, which encircled the ship at a distance of half a mile, “approached from the westward” and disappeared northward, flying very fast. A vnossible error in transmission of British steamship Amakura was advanced tonight by pilot friends of Majs. Kubala and Idzikowski as the basis for reports thct the Polish * fliers had turned back toward Europe. “All or nothing,” the aviators are re- ported. to have told intimate friends before the takeoff at Le Bourget. The unanimous opinion of persons in closest touch with preparations for the flight is that the filers were out to accom- plish their purpose or die in the at- tempt. The fact is emphasized that both Aztec and the Amakura reported that the plane was in no apparent diffi- culty. It is argyed that if the filers had been in trouble, or in doubt about their ability to reach port, they would have come down near one of the ships. The Polish airmen, Majs. Louis Id- zikowski and Kasimir Kubala, carried no radio, and ship reports consequent- ly afforded the only means of deter- mining the plane’s position and the direction in which she was flying. ‘Should the positions given by the two ships prove erroneous and the lane be in full fitght for the United tates, it should have reached the North American coast by dusk. If the Polish fliers turned their course back toward Europe, they should have reached the European coast at least by noon, Eastern stand- ard time, today. Compass May Have Failed. No word was received concerning them during the day and this led to the added belief that their "compass ELECTRICITY KLIS 3 NEWYORK STORY FIER THN SPEL Woman Struck by Lightning While in Wading; Another Dies on “L” Third Rail. 800,000 SEEK SHELTER WHEN THUNDER BOOMS Patrolman Meets Death as He Picks Up Fallen Wire at Far Rockaway. New York, Aug. 4 (A.P.).—One woman was Killed by a bolt of lightning, an- other was electrocuted on an elevated railway third rail, and a policeman was killed as he picked up a fallen. “live” Wire tonight when a violent electrical storm struck the bathing resorts near Manhattan, skirting the city proper. Mrs. Edna Connors, 37 years old, of Coney Island, was wading at Coney when the storm broke. Bystanders said there was a vivid lightning flash which seemed to play about the woman’s head. She fell without a cry and was carried to a pavilion. A physician said the bolt apparently had struck her full in the fact and she had died instantly. Girl Dies on Third Rall. A throng that police estimated at between 800,000 and 900,000 fled in a milling mob for shelter as hail and rain began to fall. Among the jostling crowd that headed for the elevated railway platform at Brighton ‘Beach, near Coney Island, were Gertrude Neidenberg, 16, and her mother. Tne two were near the edge of the platform when the girl fell, or was pushed to the tracks and rolled against the third rail. Men held back the frantic mother while a train dispatcher shut off the power. The girl was dead when a physician arrived. Policeman Wire Victim. At Rockaway Beach the high wind and pounding hail ripped a light wire from its pole. Patrolman Arthur Fash, 52, picked up the loose end to carry it out of a boulevard, and the heavy voltage passed through his body. He died before an ambulance came. Lightning struck a three-story frame house at Coney Island, setting it afire, but six families escaped without injury and firemen put out the blaze with little damage. may have failed them and that they were fiying in a great circle. Another possibility was that the fliers turned in a northeasterly direc- tion in order to skirt an extensive storm area. The plane carried enough gasoline, under normal conditions, to remain in the air 56 hours, which would give the fliers until 8:46 a. m. Sunday (East- ern standard time) before a descent would become necessary. London's Sunday morning newspapers are not optimistic. The fear is widely expressed that the fliers lost their way in the mists of the Atlantic and per- haps met disaster. Editorial sentiment is inclined to ac- cept the assumption that the airplane Sighted by. the steamers Aztec and Amakora was the Marszalek Pilsudski. The pilots are believed to have turned back because of bad weather or other conditions which made the transatlan- tic attempt seem impossible. Underneath this pessimistic viewpoint there is deflected the hope that the plane came down safely at some remote spot on the European coast. As the hours pass, however, without word of any kind this possibility is thought to be more and more unreasonable. Heading Toward Valencia. New York, Aug. 4 (A.P.).—A con- tinuation of the line between two ships which reported the Polish Atlantic fliers apparently returning to Europe last night would bring the airmen to land at Valencia, Ireland, and on the way they would cut over the course of nine Europe-bound ocean liners and three on their way to America. A guard of 200 soldiers and as many Nassau County police patrolled Mitchel Field today to keep order in the crowd that gathered to welcome the Polish fliers. Despite the heat, some 2,500 per- sons visited the (field during the day, the crowd thinning late when it was reported that the fliers probably had turned back toward Europe. The Polish Min.ster to the United States, Jan Clechanuwski, who re- mained at the field with Polish con- sular officials and the committee of welcome, said tonight he still had hopes that the fliers would, land here.

Trail Frequently Picked Up but Is Lost Again. Another tragic aftermath of the de- flation of the Florida real estate boom two years ago, when hundreds through- out the country forcibly had brought home to them the fact that the best- laid schemes of men “gang aft agley,” is brought to light today in a public appeal for information as to the where- abouts of William Deane Wilde, scion of an old Washington and Brooklyn family, and former prosperous Florida neal estate promoter and clubman. Wilde, who is 46 years old and is also well known as Chandler Deane, has not been heard from for nearly two years and after futile efforts of his wife, Mrs. Ruth J. Deane, of 1415 Chapin street northwest, to locate him through private agencies, she is making a pub- lic appeal for information as to his whereabouts. At the time of his disappearance, Wilde was assistant sales director and manager of the Washington office of the Haven Villa Corporation, then lo- cated in the Investment Building, Fifteenth and K streets northwest. During the summer of 1926, Mra. Deane says, she and her husband were living at the Roosevelt, Hotel, in Wash- ington, and late in the fall Wilde took @ Northern business trip. Several weeks later she was to have met him at the McAlIpin Hotel in New York, where she engaged a sulte upon arrival. Wife Stranded in Hotel. Days went by, and Mrs. Deane heard nothing from her husband. When her funds got low she inqutred at the hotel and found that Wilde had been there prior to her arrival, and, although he had left for Detroit in their large and expensive automobile, his trunks, golf bags and other belongings were still in the room which he had occupied at the hotel. Financially embarrassed, Mrs. Deane was obliged to appeal to her fam- ily to pay her hotel bill. She then started frantic efforts to locate Wilde. He had left New York on November 1, 1926, and was known to have been in Detroit for a short time thereafter, but his wife was unable to get into communication with him. Ac- customed to having every luxury be- stowed upon her by her husband and it being his habit to telegraph her every day when away, Mrs. Deane was panic- stricken and appealed to the police of several cities to locate him. On November 24, 1926, Wilde heard from in San Antonio, Tex., and his wife notified. She wrote to him there and received reassuring replies that he would soon be with her, but made no reference to the predica- ment in which he had left her in New York. The last that Mrs. Deane heard from Wilde was a letter written at Jacksonville, Fla., dated December 14, 1926. in which he told her that he was “up against it financially,” and that he was going to drop out of sight for a few days but for her not to worry as he would soon be with her. When his wife attempted to reach him at Jack- sonville she found that he had gone, leaving his baggage at the hotel. of Childhood, was Romance The next information that she had of Wilde was on March 25, 1927, when she recognized his picture, as a sculp- tor, above the name of Chandler Deane Bailey, in an: Atlanta, Ga. newspaper. Through the police of that city she obtained his address and sent him a registered letter for which she recelved a return receipt, but no reply. Her next letter was returned with the no- tation that he had left, leaving no for- warding address. No more was heard of him until December, 1927, when a cousin of Wilde reported that he was seen coming from a church in New- ark, N. J. Wife Vainly Hunts for Wilde, Missing Scion of Old Family Former Wealthy Florida’ | WILLIAM DEANE WILDE. In January of this year Mrs. Deane came to Washington and again took up her profession of nursing, which she had left when she married Wilde. In the short time since she has been here she has been called on the cases of many prominent Government of- ficlals and society people. At her Chapin street apartment Mrs. Deane unfolded a touching story of a doubly shattered romance, which was the culmination of the hopes and plans of the grandparents of Wilde and Mrs. Deane .during their childhood. Their marriage was planned many years ago by their respective grandfathers who had been lifelong friends in Brooklyn. When they were married, Wilde was scarcely more than a boy and had just completed his education at the Uni- versity of California. One beautiful daughter was born to the couple. Divorced and Remarried. In 1907 Mrs. Deane obtained a di- yvorce and the custody of her child. For 17 years she lost all track of her hus- band, but tn 1924 again met him and on October 25 of that year they were remarried at They bygones,” In con- Waterbury, Conn. let be and not to delve into the past. sequence of this agreement Mrs. Deane knew virtually nothing of her hus- band's life during the intervening 17 years between the time of their divorce and second marriage. From occasional words, however, she gathered that Wilde had served in France during the World War, had been wounded, and had made < mor? or less extensive study of medicine. While in Washington, Wilde one day told his wife that if anything should happen to him papers of importance were de- posited in a local bank where he kept his account. Since his disappearance Mrs. Deane has made efforts to see the papers, but the bank Its reluctant to give her access to them, if they exist. Wilde also is sald to have a balance at the bank. Mrs. Deane has made efforts to trace Wilde through the Veterans Bureau, but it has no record of him under either of his names. The only clew that she has as to his service was his casual reference to a Dr. Peck, who, she understands, was attached to the Roosevelt Hospital, Unit 15, at Chaumont, France, in 1917. Wilde is the son of the late Dr. Henry Parcher, of Washingtno, but was adopted by a step-grandfather and took his name of Wilde. Mrs. Deane says that he is an exceptionally bright man and was generally well known and liked throughout the country.

N (NEES ARE COVERED IN NEW PARIS MODE REVEALED BY PATOL Fashion Authority Declares Unshapely Legs Doomed Short Skirts. EVENING GOWNS HIGH AT NECK, LOW AT WAIST Prices of Models Displayed Range From $200 Up to $50,000 (Special Cable Dispatch.) Paris, Aug. 4.—-Everything below the knees is the keynote of the forthcoming styles, according to Jean Patou, lead- ing dressmaker, who presented the au- tumn and winter collection of models last night. The spectators at the show- ing included «Gertrude Vanderbilt, Rosy Dolly and her nev; husband, Mor- timer Davis, who was Cyed a deep yel- lowish brown with imitation sunburn. No knee showed belo the Patou skirts, although so.ne of the robes were gored and flared, revesling considerable hose, according to the movements of the wearers. The evening zowns were all high- necked, but slashed to the waist be- hind—most of them practically with- out backs—and deeply cut away under the armpits. Most of the decollete mod- els were so bare it was necessary to attach brassieres and undics with ad- hesive tape. Next season's moaels require a spe- cial coat for every gown, whether sport, morning, afternoon or evening. The ensemble craze is carried to the utmost. Patou produced a new color called ardoise—like a slate’ roof that has been rained on. There were various shades of the new blue leit motif color scheme. Huge Necklaces Seen. As usual, Patou scored his chief suc- cess with the simplest, plainest black crepe or satin. models, lit up with a touch of color, such as white lace cuffs or neckerchief, or a vivid Jeweled clasp pin or brooch. Thick encrused brilliant platinum necklaces, something like the _ wel- come wreaths of the Hawaiians, proved novelties in jewelry. Also there were great bracelets of semiprecious stones wide as a butcher's leathern cuffs, giv- ing a barbaric touch. One m.® was shown among the eve- ning wraps, American hit wearing mannequins scored the most daring some cut so low in the back necessary to stick the fabric the flesh with adhesive tape. The cheapest models cost 3200. Oth- ers ran as high as $50,000 for elaborate lace and beaded work. Short Skirts a big robes, it was against Doomed.

FOUR OF OHIO FAMILY SLAIN IN GRADE CRASH the | | buy | Brooklyn, a Speeding Auto Smashes’ Into Locomotive Near Colorado Springs. Colorado Springs, Colo., Aug. 4 (A.P.). Three women and a man, members of a Dayton, O. family, were instantly killed today when their automobile crashed into the locomotive of a south- bound Denver and Rio Grande West- ern passenger train at a grade crossing eleven miles south of here. From letters and cards found on the mangled bodies of the victims, the cor- oner established their identity as: Earl H. Turner, Beulah Annie Tur- ner, Annie R. Turner and Mrs. John Edward Turner, all of Dayton. P, W. Eargle, the only eye-witness, told authorities the automobile was traveling at a high rate of speed north- ward on the main Colorado Springs highway which parallels the railroad right of way. Eargle said the driver apparently either did not know a grade crossing was near until too late to avoid the crash, or failed to notice the speeding train. Wrong Name Given to Police. In The Washington Post of Friday it was reported that a woman giving the police the name of Mildred C. Rit- terbusch, 701 C street southwest, was arrested in a raid at 1820 Twentieth street Wednesday night. Mrs. L. E. Ritterbusch, of the C street address, informed The Washington Post yes- terday that no one of the name given the police lives at that address, and ‘hove for that she knows nothing of the incident. eee Marines at Nicaragua Commende Lieut.

Frank H,. lLamson-Scribner, Marine Corps, 5605 Fourteenth street north- west, for bravery in Nicaragua, was an- nounced with eleven other awards and commendations at the Navy Depari- ment yesterday. The commendation for Lieut. Lam- son-Scribner was ‘for having distin- guished himself by extraordinary hero- ism, coolness and skill on January 14, when he participated as a pilot in an air attack on outlaws occupying a strongly fortified position on El] Chi- pote Mountain in Nicaragua. “By his sk{ll and daring he assisted in the overwhelming defeat of the en- emy, driving him from his stronghoid and shattering his forces. -The result ot the engagement was of great im- portance in suppressing the _ revolt, saving probable casualties to our troops and of great benefit’ to the prestige of our country.” Other commendatics were to Second Lieut.

Y MISOING PLANE VICTIM AILLG IMOELE IN LEAP ished at Theater, Suicide at Baltimore Y. M.C. A. PLUNGES SEVEN STORIES Jumping from the seventh floor of the Y. M. C. A. Bulldine in Baltimore, Frederick Bisman, 2° yearg old, yesteer- day snuffed out his own life, after eluding his mother here Friday night when he excused himself to go to the smoking room in the Fox Theater, and disappeared. Bisman had been a patient at Emer- gency Hospital suffering, from concus- sion of the brain and other injuries since June 14, when he was seriously hurt in a séaplane crash in the Po- tomac River. After dining at the Occidental Hotel with his mother, Mrs Julia K. Bis- man, they went to the F street play- house, and she wave him a $10 bill to the tickets Whiie in the lobby he said he was going to the smoking room. That was the last seen of him until he registered at the Baltimore Y. M. C. A. Friday night under the name of “Frank Foote.” Raymond H. Stoil, night clerk at that institution, heard a crash in the areaway. Going to a window, he saw the form of Bisman crumpled up, on | a glass roof above the swimming pool, He was rushed to Mercy Hospital, but died shortly afterward. Police entering ais room on _ the seventh floor found three notes in pen- cll on the bureau. One was addressed | to his mother, a second was to the| Y. M. C. A. and the third was addressed , to W. R. Luhrs, 43@ Sterling place, fellow passenger in the seaplane crash. The first note stated he had registered under a ficticlous name, and added: “Please advertise for articles on front pages of Washington and Philadelphia papers.” The note to Luhrs read “I have been wronged at the Washington, D. C., hospital. I hope you and Jimmie will arrange with those concerned to get in the apartment and get whatever you want—furniture, &c. I have been doped by a hospital in Washington, D. C., 80 I know I won't live long. Best all. J am yours, “FROTZIE FREDDIE.” His note to Mrs. Disman read “Moth- er, Divine, also anyone you may see. Love. Fred.” Cards in his clothing showed he had been employed by the Skinner-Hill Co., of New York. While several articles of clothing were found tn the room, there was no baggage. An open bottle of lo- tion for treating poison ivy was also found, but police were unable to deter- mine whether he drank any. Bisman’s body was removed to the Baltimore morgue, pending an inquest by William C, Riley, coroner. Four Auto Bandits _ Hold Up Motorist Four bandits, riding in a large tour- ing car, halted Luther C. Poole, of Spencerville, Md., in Fifth street, be- tween U and W streets northwest, as he was driving to work last night, held him up at the point of a pistol, robbed him of his pocketbook and drove away. The pocketbook contained a check for $50, but no money, Poole told police. Poole told police that he had a roll of money in his pants pocket, which the bandits missed. ‘They asked for his pocketbook and made no attempt to search him, he declared. Poole is a merchant in the Center Market. Nurse’s Eyes Who Specialized in Optics Win Doctor Miss Doris J. Morrison Wed to Dr. V. C. Malloy, Ro- mance Starting at Episcopal Hospital, Where Both Were Employed—Had Hid Ceremony. Up until a year ago, Dr. Vincent C. Malloy, of Akron, Ohio, thought of eyes as only something to treat. Then he looked into the eyes of Miss Doris J. Morrison, a graduate nurse, and on July 25 the couple were quietly married in the Catholic Cathedra: at Baltimore. News of the ceremony, however, did not leak out until last night, when the announcement was made by the bride’s parents, Dr. and Mrs, William B. Mor- rison, of Hagerstown, Md. The romance developed at the Epis- copal Eye, Ear and Throat Hospital, in this city, where Dr. Malloy for the past year has been taking un advanced course of study, and where his bride is surgi- cal supervisor, The former Miss Morrison’s eyes, by the way, are blue, and are surmounted by what is popularly called “red” hair, but which is a beautiful titian. The doctor also has red hair, and 80, once again, is avzh shatiered—the theory that only opposites attract. Dr. Malloy and his bride left the hospital here ten days ago yesterday for Baltimore, and were married that day by the Rev. C. C, Kerr. Dr. Mal- loy gave his age as 30, and that of his bride as 27. After the ceremony, the couple went on a honeymoon to the bridegroom's home at Akron. Up until last night only two persons in the hospital knew that the marriage had taken place—C. C. Buck, superin- tendent of the institution, and Miss C. J. Gust, superintendent of nurses. The newlyweds planned to reveal their secret tomorrow, but a Washington Post reporter spoiled their plans by calling the hospital last night and veri- fying a report from Hagerstown. Before coming here, Dr, Malloy at- tended the University of Dayton and the St. Louis School of Medicine. He will remain at the Episcopal institution here for another year. The former Miss Morrison attended the nurses’ school at Providence Hospital here for four years, took a post-graduate course at the Lakeside Hospital in Cleveland, Ohio, BUOTLEGGEA'S PATRONS MAY EAGE PROSECUTION Names of Prominent Persons Found During Raid in Philadelphia. PLOT CHARGE POSSIBLE Philadelphia, Aug. 4 (A.P.).—Possi- bility of prosecution ot the customers of Joel G. Kerper, alleged society boot- legger, was being studied today. Col. Samuel O. Wynne, Federal pro- hibition administrator, has been ex- amining letters and checks found in Kerper’s store when it was raided Monday. The letters and checks, some of them bearing the names o persons sociadly prominent, are believed to have been sent by the persorm: whose signatures appear, but Col. Wynn said he must prove the signatures before taking the contemplated step of charging the Signers with conspliracy “I can not say now what we shall decide to do,” Coi. Wynne sald, “but lawyers ussure me that. if we can prove the signatures to be genuine we can prosecute the writers for conspiracy with Kerper to violate the prohibition law. “Some of them. may come in and help the Government, because our evi- dence shows that Kerper duped them. He charged them 8:50 e case, for in- stance, for what they were led to be- lieve was prepronioition rye whisky. “There has been no exaggeration in the statement that the majority of letter writers are socially prominent. I can not reveal the names, but some of them live right oui along the main line. It is true that I know some of them, but they are not exactly inti- mate friends. “We found that many of Kerper’s customers gave summer addresses in the New England States and winter ad- dresses in the Souin, and that he took care of their wants st their distant homes. Examination of the orders showed that the customers made no bones about. asking for what they wanted. There was no code word for any of the liquors.’ Policeman Is Sought In Beating of Wife After they had found Mrs. Winfred Young, wife of a policeman of the Ninth Precinct, hysterical in her apart- ment at 1423 Twenty-second street southeast, police of the Eleventh Pre- cinct last night instituted a search for her husband. They were called to the house after a throng of spectators gathered in front. Policeman S. M. Miles reported that he found the woman alone screaming and bleeding from her mouth. After treatment by Dr. C. R. King, 2015 Nichols avenue southeast, Mrs. Young told police that she had been in a quarrel with her husband over do- mestic difficulties.

Special to The Washington Post. Boston, Mass., Aug. 4.—Mrs’ Edith MacFadden, of Cambridge, thinks the government is too occupied in the pro- tection of business and is not looking cut enough for the home. The people can't stand the prevailing taxes, she says, and for this reason, this widow of a Congregational clergyman has filed pepers for the Republican nomination for governor. She is the first woman in the Commonwealth ever to seek this office. Just how seriously her campaign will be regarded Mrs. MacFadden is not cer- tain. Already in the race are Lieut. Frank G. Allen and Frank A. Goodwin, recently removed, after vigorous thrusts at State governmental heads, from his office of State registrar of motor ve- hicles. That she filed co late—August 14 1s tiie last day for obtaining the requisite 250 signatures in four counties—Mrs. MacFadden said, is due to her unfamll- iarity with politics. The primary is set for September. The pet project of this first Massa- cl.usetts woman gubernatorial aspirant ‘s a law that would remove the tax ex- emptions now accorded educational in- stitutions, particularly in Cambridge, her home city, where Harvard Univer- sity and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology occupy much valuable prop- erty without paying taxes.

HARRIED RUM RUNNERS UNTIL THEY DISPERSED Widely Diversified Duties Are Laid Upon Service on Land and Sea. exten The United States Ccast Guard, most fomantic and oldest o: American mari- time forces, was 138 years old yester- day. On land and sea, wherever the flag of the service flcw the 11.662 of- ficers and enlisted men of the Coast Guard celebratea the anniversary with appropriate cefeinonies. Following disbandment of the Con- tinental Navy aiter the Revolutionary War, there was no sea force available for the protection of the coasts and the maritime intest of the newly constituted United States. To remedy this condition, the First Congress, with the approval of Presiden. Washington, authorized the esvablishment of a revenue cutter sevice on August 4, 1790. A year late: ten vessels were ready for duty. President Washinyton issued the first commission to Capt Hopley Yeaton, of New Hampshire. The ships of the revenue cutter service patrolled the coast and enforced American maritime laws. For nearly seven years the reve- mue cutters formed the only armed force afloat belonging to the young Republic. The revenue cutters saved many lives and salvaged valuable property from shipwrecks at. sea, but, as the country expancled, che need for an on- shore organization for the same pur- pose was felt. Congress ir 1848 created the Live Saving Service as a result. The two services cooperatea with and sup- plemented each other te a considerable extent in the work of conservation of lives and property. But, as the years rolled by, it become apparent’ that closer coordination and increased effi- ciency would result from the union of beth services. «chis was accomplished by Congress January 28, 1915. and the Coast Guard was created, constituted as a part of the armed forces of the United States, »>peratin; under the Treasury Department ir time of peace and under the Navy Department in time of war. Duties Many and Diversified. The duties of the Coast Guard are May. And the work is of a thrilling and romantic nature. Suppression of mutinies on merchart vessels, destruc- tion or removal of wrecks, derelicts and other floating dangers of navigation, enforcement of neutrality and quaran- tine laws, protection of the customs revenue, protection 9: game and fish- eéries in Alaska and participation in the international tce patrol in the vicinity or the Grand Banks off Newfoundland ere but a few of the duties of the Coast @xard.. wf recent years the Coast Guard has tak:™ up new line of endeavor, and one that packs the thrills of all of its Other duties combined. And that is the prevention of the smuggling of liquor into the United States. It was in the performance of this duty that the destroyer Paulding recently ram- med and sunk the submarine S-4 with the loss of all on board off the Coast Guard base at Provincetown, Mass. Several years ago Uncle Sam's pro- hibition law enforcement officers were troubled over the wholesale smug- gling of choice liquors into this coun- try from a fleet of vessels off the New Jersey Highlands. The operators of these whisky-running vessels took desperate chances to land their con- traband. Every night a fleet of fast, small boats would put out from the Jersey coast, load up from the ships lying off “Rum Row” and scurry back to the coast. Shore agents were powerless, to stop the wholesale smuggling of the liquor. Whenever -the enforcement party did apprehend the rum pirates landing their cargoes they were forced te shoot it out with the desperadoes. Many lives on both sides were lost in this way. Rum-Runners Kouted. Officials in Washington became alarmed. They had a law to enforce but were powerless to enforce it. They called on the Coast Guard. Fleets of small boats, of the subchaser type, armed with small repeating rifles and machine guns were sent to “Rum Row.” Airplanes were used as spotters. They would radio the location of the rum vessel to the subchasers. The speedy little saips by twos, ours, and larger squadrons would make for the scene The little ships formed a_ cordon ground the rumboat. It was impos- sible, even on the darkest of nights, to get more than one or two small cargoes of liquor to shore. The Coast Guard meant to break up “Rum Row” and it did. The men matched force with force. Many a rum-runner fell victim to the fire of machine guns from the little boats. The fleet of rum-laden vessels dwin- d‘ed. The more desperate of the rum- runners stuck around, hoping against hope to catch the Coast» Guardsmen off their guard. But they failed and finally the last of the whisky runners pulled up anchor and made for points unknown. Primarily, the Coast Guard is a peace-time organization, operating un- der the jurisdiction of the Treasury Department. Its life-saving stations line the American coasts and large in- land bodies of water. Its vessels sail the Seven Seas. But the Coast Guard knows how to fight. It has made an honorable and distinguished record in every war which the United States has engaged since the Revolutionary War, and its military history is in keeping with the highest traditions of the arm- ed forces of the Nation. The personnel of the Coast Guard is schooled in modern warfare on both land and on sea. It has established training stations similar to the Navy, and these schools develop the finished fighter. Served in Many Wars. During our difficulties with France in 1798 and Yf799, the records show that eight cutters operated along our southern coast in the Caribbean Sea and among the West Indian Islands. The cutter Pickering made two cruises to the West Indies and captured ten prizes, one of which carried 44 guns and 200 men, three. times her own force.

Kellogg Note to China Called Proof of Amity (Special Cable Dispatch.) Shanghai, Aug. 4.—Dr. Walter Will- ams, dean of the Schoo! of Journalism at the University of Missour! and presi- dent of the world press conference, ad- dressed the Chinese Chamber of Com- merce here today. Dr. Williams de- clarad that Secretary of State Kellogg's recent note to China constituted a true expression of American friendship for republican China and that under no circumstances would the American people countenance a policy of im- perialistic and militaristic aggression toward the Far East. The few American traders, he sid, who urged a strong American policy in cooperation with Japan and the European nations are really unrepre- sentative of American sentiment. BRITISH NOTE MAY CHANGE U.S. VIEW OF FRENCH PACT CONTINUED. FROM PAGE Tf. points of particular interest to Amert- can naval defense. Comparison of inspired press cables with the Chamberlain official commu- nication tends to confirm rather than deny the that both the secrecy and ambiguity may at least be designed to serve a temporary Franco- British purpose. impression Covered Four Categories, For example, the first cable from Mr. James, Paris correspondent of the New York Times, stated that tl.: proposed limitations in the compromise applied specifically to four categories and Mr. James gave the. categories. They in- cluded capital ships, coverea by the Washington conference of 1921-22, air- plane carriers, also covered by the Washington conference treaty; surface craft below 10,000 tons, carrying guns from 6 to 8 inches, and submarines. The ‘atter two categories were not cov- ered by the Washington five-power naval pact. Examination of the Chamberlain note clearly shows that the Times cable was based on authoritative or inspired information because the four categories are part of the Franco-Brit- ish compromise. But the communication which Mr. Kellogg has received from Sir Aus- ten Chamberlin refers to a third cate- gory of surface craft, carrying guns above 6 inches, and not surface craft carrying guns ‘‘from 3 to 8 inches.” This seemingly trif.ing difference is admittedly very important At the Geneva naval conference, which ended in disagreement, tne American dele- gation pressed ‘for cruisers carrying 8-inch guns, while :ne British opposed this and fought for cruisers carrying 6-inch guns. Lack of adequate naval bases and other considerations prompted Amer- ica to ask for the tor heavily armed ships, while the British, because of their many naval pases and because of British naval needs, wanted the 6-inch gun cruisers. Incidentally. British mer- chant ships, armed ir time of war, could advantageously use 6-inch guns. ' America Apparently Defeated, Now the version o1 the compromise, as cabled to the Times, apparently made the Franco-British agreement veto both the 8 and 6 iuch guns, there- by striking a sort cf even balance be- tween British an» American conten- tions at Geneva. Bul the Chamberlin note refers to limitations on cruisers with guns ‘above 6 irches.” In other words, the British win their Geneva fight for 6-inch guns and America doses her fight for 8-irch guns. It is conceded tha, the actual text of the compromise may place this and other matters in a somewhat difficult light. But so long as the British and French undertake to interest the Sousa Aid, 66, Reenlists After 27 Years in Service — How John Philip Sousa, “March King,” came to name one of his famous marches, “The Thunderer,” is told by Tech.

Campagna, who immediate: reenlisted in the banc, was born a Genoa, italy, In 1861, aua came to this country as a boy, his musical educa- tion having been begun as a choir boy of 8 in the Cathedral of Milan, Italy. As a member of the Marine Band at the time of Sousa’s lead «rship, Cam- pagna copied many of the compositions of the famous leader. He says that Sousa composed the music of “The Thunderer” and turned it over to him at 9 o’clock one night, and he had it copied and ready, after working all night, for the band at 9 o’clock next morning, — Sousa, according to Campagna, was trying to think of a name for the : 7 S . oe ee eR EON ee Oe Sea ae a Te ae etc Sian Saas te ae eee oe Se + in nainadl en 6 LAE TR i acetal Tate. fio REPEL EYE BEG ORL march he had composed in honor of DeMolay Commandery, and had decid- ed to play it outdoors to get the effect of the strains in the open air.

America will be represented on the Preparatory Commission and will fol- low its past policy of trying to be help- ful.

Smith of New York nt lwo i et county conventions in ‘texas today after heated sessions - Preceding the convention at Houston a riot call was turned in to guiet an uproar precipitated among a crowd of 200 men and women attending a meet- ing of the county legislative committee. when W. W. Moore, jr., a Smith man, and Alvin S. Moody, chairman of the anti-Smith Democrats of Texas, got into a row. The lie was passed when each man accused the othey of having been a member of the Ku Klux Klan. In the convention the Smith men overwhelmed their opponents, adopting a resolution pledging support to the Democratic ticket from “constable to President.” ’ At Austin the Travis County conven- tion struck the names of Cone Johnson, State highway commissioner, and his bride, Miss Ethel Milton, assistant at- maiden, Sad torney general, from the list of dele- gates to the State convention, because Johnson had declared his intention to “bolt” the party presidential nominee. By a vote of 205 to 175, a resolution was adopted instructing delegates to the State convention to oppose repeal or modification cf the Federal prohibi- tion laws. Former Gov. James E. Ferguson stepped into the Texas senatorial cam- paign today with the announcement that he would support VU. S. Senat Earl B. Mayfield for renominatio against Representative Tom Connally, who will oppose Mayfield in the run-off primary Mayfield defeated Ferguson for the Senate in 1922 and Conally sup- ported Mayfield in that campaign. “If Connally was for Mayfield when the latter was a member of the Ku Klux Klan, rurning against me,” Fer- guson said in a statement. “‘as a choice between two evils, then Connally can't complain if my friends and myself give. him a dose of his own medicine.” 70 FIVE OTHERS SAVED Max Houser and Party Fall Into Deep Hole Playing Ball in Water.

While there may be many members of the force who deserve this criticism, there is strong opposition against mak- ing it so wide in its application as to include even the majority of policemen. Those who have been driving cars for a long time and have given close obser- vation to the conduct of members of the force assert that the majority of policemen are hard-working and con- scientious, ever alert to the wrongdoer who flagrantly violates the law. Police Too Few, Claim. If there is any great fault to be They point out that the Washington regulations conform closely with the uniform vehicle code which represents the judgment of the best minds on traffic matters In the country. In the formulation of the uniform code all interests were represented, so that in its conformation, it !s pointed out, the District code likewise repre- sents the sustained judgment of the Nation's foremost authorities on traffic control.

Persons who hold this point of view seek elsewhere for the answer to the question, “What is wrong with Wash- ington traffic?” They look to those who are driving cars at dangerous speeds and without regard to the sacredness of life and property. And they are convinced that there are in Washington a considerable number of motor car drivers who are totally unfit to hold permits. Conceding that this group is definite- ly in the minority, it is felt nevertheless that the undesirables are too numerous and need to be weeded out. And here, they assert, is where the police can aid in‘making Washington traffic as safe and satisfactory as it is in any city in the country. “Revoke the permits of the arrogant type of driver and you will put your finger on the very source of Washing- In the number of drivers who speed across intersections, cut corners, re- fuse to yield the right of way to any one and ignore stop signs and traffic signals is to be found the greatest ob- stacle to smoothly and safely flowing twaffic, declare those who have watched Washington traffic closely. There are sufficient regulations to cope with these irresponsible drivers, it, is believed, and their strict enforcement in s0 far as this type is concerned 1s held to be the solution of the much-talked-of local traffic problem. Those who have given a great deal of thought to the question, “What is wrong with Washington traffic?” be- lieve that the revocation of the per- mits of the irresponsible drivers will be the answer. Otherwise, they declare, the streets of the National Capital will continue to be menaced by a type of driver who No Phone o1 Mail Orders 9x12 TAPESTRY RUG WITH THE ABOVE SUITE FREE!

( Heb beacte DEMOCRATS IN CITY DIVIDE ON HEARING AL OMITH'3 oPEECH Club to Listen In at Its Rooms While Organization Holds Mayflower Rally. FEUD IS SEEN RAGING AS BITTERLY AS EVER Plan of Colpoys Has Been to Assemble All of Party Under One Banner. The split in local Democratic ranks continues, despite the efforts of the regular organization to bring about harmony. Evidence of this was con- tained in an announcement made last night by the Al Smith Democratic Club. The announcement was to the effect that the club will hold “open house” in its headquarters in the Southern Build- ing on the night of August 22, and that everybody will be invited to gather there and listen to Gov Smith’s ac- ceptance speech as it comes over the radio from Albany. This means that there will be a counterattraction to what is being planned as the big Democratic show on that night—a mass meeting and rally in the Mayflower Hotel. Behind this event is the regular organization, headed by National Committeeman John F Costello, National Committee- wares J.Rorden Harriman, and John P. “A Ipeye, chairman of the central ROLLD: : eo. Bolpoys Plans Big Club. In announcing the Mayflower mass meeting last week, Chairman Colpoys said that arrangements would be made to take care of every Democrat in the city. Not only would there be a radio broadcast of Gov. Smith's speech, he eaid, but prominent orators would be there to entertain the crowd before the Albany ceremony started. The same day that Colpoys gave out the news about the mass -neeting he told of plans to bring all the various Democratic organizations here together under one banner, that of a new or- ganization to be known as the United Smith-Robinson Democratic Club. While there has never been any for- mal discussion of the Colpoys sugges- tion at the meetings of the Al Smith Democratic Club, individual members have declared that they were opposed to joining forcés with Colpoys and Cos- tello. Rebuffed at Houston. The fight betweer the Al Smith Club and Costello br6nx¢ out long be- fore the Houston comyention, and be- came more bitter ag the convention drew near. Finally two primary elec- tions were held here, and two sets of delegates were sent to Houston, one made up of Costello adherents and the other made up of members of the Al Smith Club. At Houston the Costello delegation was seated, and the other contingent was left on the outside. Last night’s statement from the Al Smith Club was issued by Mrs. Lester J. Pollock, the fourth vice president. She announced that the club would LT LOSE! * EOE NGI et pr A Ps Virginia foles Has Rod | Laid on 2 Accused Boys Acting Police Justice Aylett B.

JUNIORS ALSO DO WELL Lloyd Fish, one of the four Washing- ton boys, Who were sent to the Detroit miniature aircraft tournament in June by The Washington Post, yesterday established the local speed record for hand-launched planes in the tests held at Bolling Field, under the auspices of the Community Center Department. Fish’s record was 13.6 miles an hour, over the 300-foot course. Carroll Osborn, with a record of 7.5 miles an hour, was runner-up to Fish in the senior class. The rules govern- ing the tests required that to be scored, planes should traverse the entire length of the course in flight. The planes of Fish and Osborn were the only ones of the numerous entrants in the senior class to successfully nego- tiate the course. The junior class furnished three qualifying planes, with that of Prank Salisbury establishing the high speed record of 13.2 miles an hour. Billy Don Bernewit was second with a speed of 6.8 miles, and Robert Towles, third, with 6.7 miles. Lieut. K. Sloan, of Bolling Field and Paul E. Garber were the judges. Another contest, preparatory to the District of Columbia finals on Septem- ber 4, will be held Friday morning at 9 o'clock, at the Ellipse.

«+ © GIRS IN APMESE IL HOV ROMINCE AD BATS | Strike to Obtain Right to Be- come Married and Bathe Free. _——— IMITATION IS. EXPECTED Tokyo, Aug. 4 (A.P.).—A strike of working girls in a large Japanese textile factory won a momentous victory in- cluding “freedom of marriage” and free baths every day. The right of gir) employes to marry has long been a bone of contention be- tween workers and manufacturers. The strike came abow when the owners ot the Tokyo Muslin Co. attempted to en- force to the letter their Tule againstt remance. The custom of enforcing the anti- marriage rule has been in vogue for many years, the argument of the em- ployers being that most of the girl workers are ‘Oo young to marry and, if they do so, their value to factory work is greatly depreciated. The girl employees of the muslin company, besides their insistence on freedom of marriage within the factory also demanded freedom of leaving the factory premises for recreation after 11 Pp. m.; appointment of special physi- clans and surgeons for night shifts: adoption of a system of discharge allowances and bonuses for continuous service; better food at lower prices; free tickets for bath houses every day; spe- cial cooling facilities during the hot months; payment of half-day wages on national holidays. Virtually all of these demands were granted and now employers throughout the empire are expecting an epidemic of women strikes for similar privileges.

Meal Preparation Presents No Problem When You Depend on Electric Cooking Appliances O WOMAN wants to be tied downto the kitchen in summer-time. / The ceaseless round of pre- paring meals grows irksome and monotonous in warm weather especially when one is forced to get along with out-of-date cooking facilities. & But the woman who makes the modern servant—Electricity— her cook, not only gets more pleasure out of her culinary duties but far more leisure. Electric ranges, waffle griddles, toasters, grills and percolators certainly simplify the problem of getting the meals ready. You don’t have to stand around and watch the food cooking when you have an Electric Range for the heat is mechanically controlled. You can set the dial for just the re- quired amount of heat and then go away and forget about it. The moment the cooking process is completed, the heat is shut off automatically.

* AHELD FOR JURY TRIALS AFTER RUM RAID IN CAFE Spectator of Eighteenth Street Descent Wants Ass:ault War- rant for Dry Agent. POLICE DEFEND QUINN Four men appeared in Police Court yesterday as the result of the raid Fri- cay night on the Ambassador Oyster House, 2106 Eighteenth street north- west, staged by prohibition agents and the police vice squad. They were Will- jam Deegan, 29, 2511 Fourteenth street northwest; Francis Deegan, 24, 1217 Kennedy street northwest; Clarence Myers, 25, and Burgess F. Hart, 28, 2106 Eighteenth street northwest. They were charged with violation of the prohibition law and released on $1,000 bond each to await jury trial. As the result of the raid, E. A. Rick- ert, 40 years old, 2112 Eighteenth street northwest, plans to ask As- sistant United States Attorney Ralph Given to issue a warrant charging as- sault against J. J. Quinn, deputy pro- hibition commissioner for the District of Columbia and Maryland, he said last night. Rickert charges that in the course of the raid he was seized on the street by Quinn and taken into the raided establishment, where he was beaten, later being turned loose. Rickert says that he was standing in front with a group of other persons, who were jeer- ing the agents as they broke up furni- ture in the oyster house. Sergt. O. J. Letterman, nead of the police vice squad, who participated in the raid, said yesterday that he was certain that none of his squad were in- volved in the alleged assault. He de- clared that he was upstairs with his squad and did not see the alleged as- sault, if it occurred. Indians Give Dances At Colored Elks’ Fete Under auspices of a joint committee of Morning Star Lodge, Columbia Lodge, Forest Temple and Columbia Temple of colored Elks a field day was held at American League Park yester- day, the marching clubs of the several organizations parading from the Morn- ing Star home at Fifteenth and Q streets. The day was featured by the appearance of Peublo Indians, here to see the Secretary of the [fnterior, including Princess Morning Star, Blue Sky, Wolfrobe, Rattlesnak. and the medicine man, Chief Big Snake. The Indians presented a _ buffalo dance, rattlesnake song, a demonstra- tion of sand painting and primitive methods of fire making, and the eagle, wolfrobe, bow and arrow, scalp and war dances. Dashes and relay races fea- tured the other part of the program, and a drill between teams from the women’s organizations. Rain prevented the full exposition of a pageant which had been planned. Telephone Girl Slain; Police Hold Admirer Buffalo, N. Y., Aug. 4 (A.P.).—Louise Friday, 18-year-old telephone operator, was shot to death today as she was walking home from work with a girl companion. Police are holding Milton E. Harris, 25, described as a rejected suitor. Harris, police said, fired one bullet at himself. It grazed his temple. Be- lieving himself to be dying, he la down on the side of the street until the ‘police arrived. Harris told police he had been drink- ing and didn’t remember the shooting. Odd Fellows Field Day.

City’s Greatest Excavation Opens Site of Light Acres Start Made on Work for Department of Commerce Building, Which Nearly Equals Capitol in Huge Dimensions. The largest excavation in Washing- ton’s history is being dug for the new Department of Commerce Building on the 8-acre site bounded by Fourteenth and Fifteenth streets and E and B streets. The structure, which is to cost $17,500,000, will not. be completed for three years. The building will be seven stories high, and will occupy three complete city squares. Its length, 1,050 feet, will exceed that of the United States Capitol by 300 feet, although its breadth, 325 feet, is 25 feet less than that of the Capitol. It will be longer than the British Houses of Parliament by 110 feet, though not so wide. It will be of the monumental type, and will follow the LEAGUE RECOGNIZES NEW CHINA REGIME Minister to the United States Will Head Delegation at September Assembly. Geneva, Aug. 4 (A.P.).—The League of Nations today recognized the new Nationalist government of China when Ke Alfred Sze, Chinese Minister at Washington, as head of the Chinese delggation to the September meeting of the league assembly. The nomination of Mr. Sze was re- ceived at the league secretariat from Foreign Minister Wang of the Nation- alist government. Officials explained today that by transmitting the ap- pointment to all members of the league, the Nationalist government is recognized as representing China in the league and on the council.

MONEY FOR SOUTHERN DRIVE REPORTED AS $5,000 CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. expended by James W. Good, Western manager, or his Chicago headquarters Presumably this is to be made In a sep- arate report. The expenditures, in fact, largely revolve around the headquarters here and with the exception of Mann's portion were largely for the ordinary mechanics of the headquarters. No sums were listed as having been sent into States, items that will later run the campaign costs up. There were 59 contributors to make up total collections of $98,379. Of this number 32 gave less than $2,000 and the remainder, more than $96,000, was given by 27. Pittsburgh, the home of Secre- tary Mellon, made the greatest show of generosity, 11 men, not including the Secretary, however, contributed $32,500 Ambassador Judah, of Cuba, gave $5,000; Secretary of War Davis, $10,000, and Secretary of Agriculture Jardine, $200. A total of $15,000 was contrib- uted by O. P. and M. J. Van Swearingen, who are trying to negotiate a railroad merger. Howard Heinz, of Pittsburgh, gave 810,000, and William Wrigley, jr., the chewing gum man, $5,000. There were two contributions of $10 apiece from Georgia, one from a preacher, No Extensive Soliciting So Far. The list of contributions indicates that no extensive soliciting campaign has as yet been undertaken. The report made no effort to deal with the state of the Republican treas- ury or with any expenditures or collec- tions before the opening of the cam- paign. So far as it went it was prob- ably the most detalled report ever made of campaign expenditures and was in line with the party’s platform pledge that an itemized report of every penny spent would be made monthly. Senator Borah of Idaho, was respon- sible for such a plank and the efforts of the Republicans to live up to it are be- ing watched with considerable interest In political circles. There were ex- pressed apprehensions in some quarters lest it completely disrupt the working organization here because every em- ploye’s salary is given down to the penny. In a way, it is pointed out, this is counter to Hoover efficiency as any employer of a large number of people knows the dissatisfaction caused when a worker learns that his fellow worker is receiving more money. Particularly is a rumpus feared among the prima donnas of the publicity staff. On Committee’s Pay Roll. Two of Mr. Hoover’s personal assist- ants who have been with him for sev- eral years, George Akerson and Law- rence Richey, hav2 apparently been taken over by the committee pay roll, as their salaries are listed. Among the contributors to the cam- paign were Arthur Whitney, Mendham N. J., $10,000; James A. Patton, Evans- ton, Ill., $2,500; and Mrs. Elizabeth Mills Reid, of New York, $5,000: and Mrs. George B. C. DeHeredia, Washing- ton, $1,000. Those who have sought to follow through with the conflicting reports of the extent to avhich the Republicans will campaign in the South have had difficulty the past several days in in- terpreting the emphasis placed at head- quarters on the activities among the colored voters. First there was the announcement of the organization of a colored voters division and yesterday announcement was made of an experi- ence meeting of the National League ol Coloreg Women’s Republican Clubs at which Representative Fort of New Jer- sey, secretary of tr campaign commit- tee; Mrs. Daisy Curtis Gann, sister of Senator Curtis; Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt and others appeared to urge the colored women on. All these reports are eagerly grabbed up and sent South by the harassed Democrats who are trying to hold their voters in line. The overthrow of old line colored leaders in the South and tie-up with Tuskegee Institute were in- terpreted as giving more tone to the Republican colored activities in the South with a view to easing the way for bolting Democrats, but it is doubtful if this way is eased very much when the importance of the colored vote is being constantly emphasized at. headquarters here, ———— * The PALA THE SERVICE SCHOOL Co-Educational Kindergarten and Grades Boarding and Day School Constance ©.

Raleigh Haberdasher 1310 F Street INC SPEED FOR CARS 15 MILES Although operating on a temporary part-time schedule, Chain Bridge will be reopened for vehicular traffic Thurs- day afternoon at 4 o'clock, Capt. H. C. Whitehurst, assistant District Engineer Commissioner, definitely announced yesterday. Reopening of the bridge will reduce the many “detouring” troubles of the residents of nearby Virginia, who are experiencing difficulty in motoring to the Capital, due to the closing of the bridge and the pares of Lee High- way. The span will be closed between the hours of 9 in the morning and 4 in the afternoon for approximately ten days after the reopening, Capt. Whitehurst announced, to permit completion ofa new parapet wall on the Virginia side abutment and removal of mechanical apparatus used in strengthening the bridge. Lumber ordered for redecking of the bridge will not be delivered for 60 days, according to contract terms, Capt Whitehurst said, but a temporary deck will be installed on the river span. The reflooring will be laid as soon as the lumber arrives, but the bridge will not be closed during this period, Capt. Whitehurst said. Capt. Whitehurst warned motorists who will use the span to approach the Virginia side cautiously until the re- moval of mechanical apparatus. The existing load restriction of 6 tons will be continued on the bridge, but the speed limit will be increased from 12 tc 15 miles an hour. MOVEMENTS OF STEAMSHIPS L. L.

NEWS FEATURES, SPORTS AND - FINANCIAL | . : ? ’ a) . ’ NEWS FEATURES, SPORTS AND FINANCIAL M WASHINGTON: SUNDAY, AUGUST 95, 1928. 13 6.0.P. HEADQUARTERS HIGHLY ORGANIZED; ~ TOD WORKERS BUST Center of Hoover’s Campaign Reaches Out Into All Seq tions of Country. MACHINERY INCLUDES PURCHASINGG AGENCY Auditors Keep Tab on All In- come and Outgo; Ushers Plenty to Direct Visitors. By CARLISLE BARGERON. Of the approximately 100 employes at the Hoover headquarters here all are apparently well patisfied but one, and we only have his word that he is. not. He grumbles a lot and threatens to jump to the Smith heedquarters. The others seem to be a lot of con- tented souls, typical of the thousands of others who “‘iave worked for Mr. Hoover in the far-flung reaches of the world; in Belgium, in Germany, in Roumania, in Mississippi, Arkansas, or, in fact, most anywhere you might name. It is this reporter’s guess that the malcontent im the family here is not worth very much, because Mr. Hoover has always had a reputation of paying well. It is quite an .:naustry, this head- center of Mr. Hoover’s presidential campaign, and incidentally the first time Washington has ever had any- thing like it. In the past Washington has been the place where the success- ful presidential aspirants came. But for the first time a national campaign is being directed from here Trunk Lines Are Here. From the newly erected Barr Build- ing, up on Eighteen street, between I and K, thought-currents, propaganda, directions and whatnot spread out over all the country into every little crossroad and hamlet, verily into the housewife’s kitchen There are sub- ordinate agencies here and there which have their own channels of President- making commerce, Chicago notably, and the various State headquarters to a lesser degree, but tbe trunk lines run out of the Barr Batilding where the Hooveg efficiency bas been installed to the n@ degree. There are Semocratic detractors who say the Barr Building efficiency is not efficient in accomplishments, that it is a bungling, blunderbus sort of a thing. Whether this is true or not, everything is gone about in the approved efficient way. For example, a stenographer may want a job and those stenographers who have been around, know that a campaign headquarters is an especially good place to get on. But she does not go into the Barr Building, hang up her hat and go to work. She must fill out an approved application blank, even though she has béen recom- mended by some one having the good graces of the Hoover establishment. She is required to give her antece- dents and they are investigated. Typists Subject to Call. Then there must come a requisition for her from one of the twelve or s0 different departments—the transpor- tation department, publicity, radio, purchase, distribution and the like. In addition to the stenographers appor- tioned around to the various officials and in the various departments there is a general squad of stenographers and typists subject to call or handling the work that is sent into them. So far as the working machinery of the organization is concerned, H. H. Gutterson, the executive secretary, seems to be the king bee. He shares a suite of offices with Representative Fort, of New Jersey, the secretary, but, of course, Mr. Fort is as busy as the political economist of the organiza- tion, that he has no time for hiring and firing of the employes. The Hoover forces are somewhat cramped in their quarters, although they now have two entire floors of the building, the first and fourth, and about 20 offices scattered here and there on other floors. On the first floor some of the newspapermen who compose the publicity division hold forth. Periodically, they issue state- ments from this person or that telling how all the people are for Mr. Hoover for President and outlining, too, such activities in the Republican camp as ' will look good in the newspapers. Visitors Urged to Talk. Up on the fourth floor, there is a former newspaperman, W. J. McEvoy, whose apparent business it is to watch all visitors and to talk to those whose names are worth anything in print. When they come out of Chairman’ Work’s office, or just before they go in and regardless of the kind of mood they are in, McEvoy wheedles a state- ment from them telling of the glow- ing Republican conditions in the sec- tion whence they came. Then there are ushers to direct the visitor to just what department he wants to go in. If he is a person of im- portance and really knows political thjngs and expresses a desire to see Chairman Work he is ushered in to the chairman’s sanctum, where a big Ameri- can flag immediately greets the eye. Perhaps the visitor might want to see Mrs. Alvin T. Hert, who has a suite befitting the director of women’s ac- tivities,.or, maybe, John R. Hawkins, head of the newly created colored di- vision. When Dr. Work was Secretary of In- terior he was quite proud of the fact that he always. kept open house, that is, any one could wlak into his office and sit down unannounced and by turns work up to the Secretary’s desk where his business was transacted in full view of others waiting for an audi- ence. He has found that it is quite impossible to be so accessible in his new role. Everybody Doing Something. It is hard for the layman to under- stand just what there is for i100 or so employes to do at the headquarters but there is little doubt but that they do something. Everybody is either writing or and sorting letters, filing them, working with figures and gener- ally keeping active. Even the depart- ment heads manage to keep up a steady flo«’ of dictation to their stenographers. sensitiveness about ing Mr. Hoover’s own nature. Few of the workers seem to want to tell their names or just what they do, directing ee oe ene ee b- licity division.” ss There is alot fora presidential manu- lant to do.

Naval Arms _ Limitation, Lausanne Turkish Pact, Tacna-Arica Dispute, Russian Question, Among Big Unsettled Issues. By ALBERT W. FOX, Secretary of State Ke:logg’s adminis- tration of the State Department has been surprisingly prolific of first-caliber diplomatic problems of far-reaching importance and diplomats are begin- ning to speculate as to how far the Secretary will go in cleaning up what he now has under consideration before the end of the Coolidge administration, March 4, 1929. It is not expected that Mr. Kellogg would care to remain on duty after President Coolidge retires. It is re- garded as more probable that the Kel- logg record of achievement will go dewn in history on the basis of what has happened since he became Secre- tary of State om March 4, 1925, and what is to happen between now and next March. Summarizing in a general way, the big questions which have been handled by Mr. Kellogg and endeavoring at the same time to foresee which of these questions may or may not be disposed of by next March, the outstanding achievements may be cited in the fol- lowing order: Establishment of America’s relations with China on a new and independent basis which harmonizes with the John Hay principle of the open door but unties the cords which have bound America to concerted action with other powers. Negatives Antiwar Pacts. Progress in adjustment of relations with Mexico. The snuffing out of a serious situ- ation which threatened American pres- tige in Latin America by an unwaver- ing policy in Nicaragua. Negotiation of the antiwar pacts to pe signed by fifteen powers in Paris next month. Naval arms limitation, French debt negotiations, the Lausanne treaty, the Tacna-Arica dispute between Peru and Chile, minor problems and lastly Russia have all called for Mr. Kellogg’s con- sideration. In formulating and shaping Ameri- ca’s policy toward _China, Secretary Kellogg has made a record which prom- ises to go down in history as a first- caliber international achievement. John Hayes’ open-door policy established American leadership along the line of concerted action among the powers in fair dealing with Shina. Secretary of State Hughes sought to vitalize the Hay policy through the Washington conference of 1921-22, which dealt with Far Eastern questions as well as naval arms limitation. But, still, the idea of the powers working together in the shaping of a Chinese policy was a controlling factor. Mr. Kellogg has taken this background and embarked on an _ independent American policy toward China, blazing a pathway for the other powers to fol- low but not making American leader- ship in any way dependent upon the view of other nations. ® China Situation as Handled. To appreciate the surprising features of Mr. Kellogg’s Chinese policy, it is necessary to recall the situation that existed when the Chinese situation be- came acute about a year and a half ago. The Chinese Nationalists were at that time sprouting up and _= gathering strength by radical measures patterned somewhat after the radicals of Soviet Russia. Eugene Chen, an avowed So- viet sympathizer, was in charge of their foreign affairs. The growth of the radical or Nationalist movement, backed by armed ferce, had begun to threaten Shanghai, citadel of foreign commer- cial interests. The northern government of China was appealing for help and foreigners, including American missionaries, were in danger. The British, French, Ital- ed there are the millions of buttons, millions of pamphlets, millions of pho- tographs of the candidates and what not. The purchases are contracted for here and distributed out to the sub- ordinate centérs of the campaign. There is a staff of auditors to keep tab on all income and outgo. Nerve Center For Money. The money collecting centers are in New York and Chicago and the dis- bursements are made through J. R. Nutt, of Cleveland. Speakers are ar- ranged for in Chicago and New York, too, but everything else is largely di- rected $4,000,000 or so which the Republicans will spend will either: be spent or au- thorized by the nerve center of the campaign here. There is no suggestion about the headquarters that they are just tem- porary. Rather there is an air of per- manency about them. Permanent furni- ture and permanent names embossed on the doors. And they are names that are new to those who have followed politics and political people for many years. from here. In other words, the ‘which the United States has Some to Be Handed On ae —— Secretary of State Frank B. Kellogg and some of the world-famous statesmen with whom he is negotiating. British Sir Austen Chamberlain, Upper, left to right— secretary of state for foreign affairs (Henry Miller Service), Secretary of State Kellogg (Henry Miller Service) and M, Aristide Briand, foreign minister of France & Chinese minister (Underwood (Underwood Underwood). Lower—Mr. & Sao-Ke Alfred Underwood) and Gen, Sze, Plutarco Elias Calles, President of Mexico (Underwood & Underwood). fans and others were planning concert- | virile independent American policy in | menace | and the membefs of the Peking diplo- | ed action against the common matic corps, including American Minis- ter MacMurray,, believed it essential for America and’ the powers to make common cause against the Chinese rad- icals and pool their protecting military and naval forces in order to stifle the radical movement. Unfamiliar With China. The question became of prime im- portance overnight, so to speak, and Mr. Keilogg found that he would have to deal with it and assume the respon- sibility for the course which the United States was to follow. But Mr. Kellogg knew little about China. The Chinese problem had not come to him for personal attention and he was per- haps not much interested in it. He had two experts on Far Eastern affairs ready at all times to advise him act for him, Nelson T. Johnson, was chief of the division of Far or who East- ern affairs, and American Minister Mac- | Murray at Peking. MacMurray was reporting on the de- cisions and recommendations of the Peking diplomatic corps and the seem- ingly easy and simple thing for Kellogg to have done was to have given Mac- Murray a kind of blanket authority to do whatever he thought necessary and Wise for the protection of American interests. The American* Chamber of Commerce at Shanghai, representatives of American firms in China and vuol- unteer advisers ilooded the State De- partment with appeals for joint action by the powers and the protection of international armed force. Foreign ambassadors told Mr Kellogg this was the only course to pursue. Public opinicn here appeared resigned to such a move, especially as the British press in China and London kept emphasizing the bolshevik angle to the Nationalist movement’ and announced daily that the Soviet was secretly arming and en- couraging the Nationalists. Apparently there was a deliberate and widespread campaign on foot to persuade Mr. Kel- logg that if he showed the slightest sympathy for the Nationalist cause he would be playing directly into the hands of the bolshevik Russians. But in the midst of all this Mr. Kel- logg decided on a program of his own. First, he decided to make a study of the Chinese question and get at the bottom of it, so far as he was able. Before many days had elapsed he was in a position where he could judge matters for himself and use his pow- ers of discrimination in dealing with the many and varied reports from out- side sources. Secretary Kellogg had reached this stage when the Nanking incident arose, stragglers from. the Nationalist armies having attacked for- eigners, including Americans, with the result that American lives wer> lost and property destroyed. ‘his seemed to call for concerted action and the threatened fall of Shanghai necessi- tated protective measures of a military and naval character by America and other powers. U. 8S. Acts Independently. When the time came for Mr. Kel- logg to announce a policy he took the necessary steps to protect American lives and properties, but he made it clear that the United States was acting independently and not “in concert with” other powers and he likewise made it plain that America was not irterfering with the Nationalist move- ment and claimed no right to inter- fere in Chinese internal affairs or vio- late the rights of the Chinese nation in any form or under any pretext. The British wanted America to join in an international punitive action ‘to obtain redress for the Nanking outrage. Mr, Kellogg refused to permit Americ. to do so. The old policy of the sword did not appear logical under the cir- cumstances and America paved the way for a more enlightened policy in deal- ing with this regrettable affair. Great Britain and the other interested powers had no alternative but to follow Amer- ica’s course of action. . x Now that the Nationalist movement has swept over China and triumphed and the Nanking incident has been ad- justed by pacific means and a National- ist government is working to stabilize and unify the vast country, the effects of the American. policy are apparent. The encouragement and recognition given to the Nationalists through the signing of the treaty granting China tariff auton- omy serve to emphasize .‘merican lead- ership and forecast similar action by the powers.

Twelve or fifteen veterans of Union armies in the Civil War, in contrast to the hundreds that once represented the Department of the Potomac at na- tional encampments of the Grand Army of the Republic this year will be the maximum representation of the Wash- ington posts at the sixty-second en- campment which will be held the week of September 16, at Denver, Colo. Although all of the approximately 200 Union Army Veterans in Washington are as anxious as ever to gather with their old comrades from the cOuntry over and fight each historic engage- ment once more, the infirmities of their declining years and the great length of the journey will deter all but the stoutest from undertaking the trip. It is expected that five past depart- ment commanders will attend, along with William M. Bobb, of 1421 Potomac avenue southeast, the present depart- ment commander, the three official delegates, several past vice commanders and two or three others. Past department commander, Ma) Gen. John L. Clem, of 1870 Wyoming avenue northwest, who is out of the city for the summer, has let it be known that he will join his comrades in the West, and Dr. Harry T.

Calles for many months claimed that Mexico had the right to execute her laws in her own way without dicta- tion from the United States or any for- elgn power. The United States claimed that to seize American properties under retro- active laws amounted to confiscation and was contrary to the gictates of in- ternational law. President Coolidge and Secretary Kellogg refused to budge from their position and warned the Mexican government that serious con- sequences would follow any act of con- fiscation of American property. Unex- pected complications arose throught the fact that the Mexican question became & political football in the Congress, The appointment of Dwight Morrow as American Ambassador to Mexico proved the first ray of Iight in the cminous-looking situation. Calles re- ceded from his position with respect to threatened seizure of American properties under allegedly retroactive laws and there has been a steady im- provement for the past six months or more. End Nicaraguan Chaos. Nicaragua has figured prominently in Mr. Ke,oge’s activities but there are indicatiOns now that this problem will be definitely laid to rest before March next. The sending of American Ma- rines to Nicaragua to protect American and foreign lives and properties aroused widespread protest and criticisms of the policy echoed and reechoed in the halls of Congress but Mr. Kelloog stood by his guns and it is now rather gen- erally conceded that any other - policy on the part of the United States might have resulted in the continuation of chaos in Nicaragua and the loss of American lives. America is to supervise the Nicaraguan election in the fall and it is the present plan to withdraw the Marines shortly thereafter. The Kellogg antiwar pacts are to be signed by the fifteen participating powers at Paris next month. This will represent a completed achievement so far as the negotiation feature is con- cerned but it is unlikely that the pacts will have been ratified by all the powers by next March. The United States Senate, as a rule, acts slowly and cautiously in these matters and some delay. may be expected, even though Senator Borah, chairman of the foreign relations committee, favors the pacts and had a share in shaping them. Naval Armament Up Again. The question of limitation of naval armament may or may not be on the read to further progress by next March, but the consensus here is that it will still be in its present un- settled state. There are prospects for another naval arms limitation confer- ence this fall, in view of the Franco- British compromise on global tonnage and submarines, but neither officials nor diplomats entertain the real hope that such a conference, if called, will provide a ready-made or simple solu- tion to this difficult problem. Mr. Kellogg’s success in the matter of limiting naval armaments has been negative, not positive.

That conference ended in failure be- cause Secretary Kellogg declined to accept any program which in effect right to naval supremacy. Parity with Great Britain was the American slogan and that parity had to be real. It would have been a simple matter for the American negotiators, aeting under Kellogg’s guidance, to have accepted the British program and then endeavored to convince the country that American naval prestige would not suffer as a consequence, But in the question of parity with Britain, the American negotiators. wanted the genuine article and would accept no | ' adjutant of the Department of the Po- to ac; Col.

Likes Young Folks. By LOUIS P. LOCHNER (Associated Press Staff Writer). Editor’s Note—Dr. Gustav mann, the German minister of foreign affairs, chairman of the People’s party, member of the Reichstag, former chan- cellor, member of the executive counci of the League of Nations, and winner of the Nobel Peace Prize in 1926, is 50 | years old. His brilliant career at this age is almost unerampled in German history. The writer of this article has known Dr. Stresemann for the past seven years, both professionally as a newspaper correspondent and _ socially.

Like Mark Twain, he has served im bed, then studies the grams received during the night by the foreign office, reaas the newspapers, and issues his first imstructions by pri- vate telephone to the Wilhelmstrasse.

Discussions are interrupted by telephone cals and at once whole continuity 01 thought rupted “Do you suppose Goethe could have written his Faust had he lived in the age of the telephone?” he once asked, in despair. “A statesman should have imagination, be somewhat of a dreamer. But how can he reflect deeply and leisurely when one appointment follows on the heels of another?” In the course of his official day, Dr. Stresemann must often attend lunch- eons and dinners. He draws the line, however, at teas. He does not even at- is inter- a return to the old Greek system of en- tertaining not fewe: than the graces Nor more than the muses. “We need that fine sociability,” he said on one occasion, “which enables one to discuss problems within a small circle, to touch upon many subjects, and to get really to know one’s fellow man.” Likes Stein of Beer. 7 The official day ended, Dr. Strese- mann takes dinner either at home or at some quiet hotel. Other things being equal, he prefers a restaurant where he can get a stein of Muenchner to one in which wine is served, as the offical dinners and luncheons he must attend usually are affairs during which wine is served. That his famous black cigar and long cigar holder, familiar to every League of Nations correspondent, tops off the meal, goes without saying. He cites Bismarck on the advantage of smoking for diplomats; Bismarck ob- served that, when some one puts a question to a statesman, it would be impolite not to reply quickly. But if he is smoking a cigar, nobody will blame him for first taking a long draw and substitute. Under these circumstances, the breaking up of that Geneva con- ference was applauded rather than lamented by the people of the United States. French Debt Handled. In the same sense, the handling of the French debt question fs generally viewed as a negative rather than a positive achievement. Mr. Kellogg has been involved in this question from the start, being a member of the Foreign Debt Commission as well as Secretary of State. The fact that France has not ratified the Franco-American debt agreement has made efforts at debt settlement so far abort'e, but the fact that the Americans have refused to yield to terms which they regarded as unfair to the taxpayers of the United States is viewed as a point in their favor. The settlement of the debt question with other powers adds to the list of achievements in which Mr. Kellogg has had a part. But it is re- garded as improbable that the French debt question will be settled before Mr. Kellogg leaves the State Depart- ment although the possibility of French ratification and ratification by the United States Senate is not to be en- tirely overlooked. One of ¢he disappointments which Mr. Kellogg has so far had during his administration of the department has been the failure of the Senate to ratify the Lausanne treaty with Turkey. A determined minority in the Senate, led by Senator King, of Utah, has main- tained a vigorous opposition to this treaty and has succeeded in prevent- en ratification. America’s relations with Turkey are being carried on under a sort of modus vivendi which enables an American Am or to function in Turkey and a Turkish Am to represent his country here. There is some prospect that Senator Borah will be able to obtain ratification of the Lausanne before the end of nistration. Th dispute be- tween Peru and Chile was one of the difficult problems handed down by Former Secretary of State Hughes to Seeretary Kellogg. It is not yet set- tled but Peru and Chile have resumed amicable relations and there is room for the hope that this question can be settled during the Kellogg regime by aby negotiations between Peru and Chile. Minor Questions Mostly Settled. Minor questions of diplomatic im- portance have cropped up intermittent- ly since Secretary Kellogg assumed con- trol of the State Department and have for the most part been disposed of as expeditiously as could be expected. The dispute with Canada over worker-im- migrants being allowed to cross the border to perform their daily labors was adjusted without ill feeling and questions relating to liquor smuggling into the United States have been han- dled with little or no friction despite the fact that practically no foreign na- tion in any part of the world has the slightest sympathy for America’s pro- hibition laws. There is a little flurry over Amerfcan claims in Cuba, including the Barlow claim, and these matters will doubt- less be turned over by Mr. Kellogg, with a sigh of relief to the next Secretary of State. Matters pertaining to parcel post rates with Cuba likewise need ad- justment, as Cuba has refused to renew her parcels post convention with the United States until America permits small shipments of Cuban cigars to en- ter American territory. For the pres- ent parcels post between the two coun- tries is inoperative. There remains one major problem which Mr. Kellogg has not attempted to solve, thereby following the nega- tive policy laid down by Hughes. That is the question of Russia. American trade with Russia during the past year has surpassed the $100,000,000 mark and the number of American tourists annually visiting Russia has grown to great proportions.

New York, Aug. 4.—Buying was cen- tered largely upon the motor shares in today’s active week-end stock market, in which the turnover of nearly a million shares constituted the largest Saturday’s business in the New York Stock Exchange since June 16. Al- though the final cast up showed that met losses were about as plentiful as gains, the latter, as a rule, were much the broader. Bullish sentiment was aided by the @nthusiasm regarding trade prospects expressed by the weekly mercantile re- views, which called attention to the renewed expansion in general business as contrasted strikingly with the re- actionary trend which developed in commerce and industry at this time Jast year. This situation has given rise to the expectation of rapid gains in major lines after the passing of sea- sonal restrictions, an outlook which was reflected today in good demand for the trading stocks. Profit-taking by operators desiring to be out of the market over Sunday Was readily absorbed in most cases. Leaders like United States Steel, Gen- eral Motors, Allied Chemical and Amer- ican Can displayed quiet strength, while brisk advances were scored by many other individual issues through- out the list. Chrysler stood out prominently, run- ning to the highest price of its hi story, at 8614, and closing at 8534, with a net gain of "1%, in the largest turnover of the day for any individual issue, 102,- 000 shares. All the Dodge shares gain- ed substantially, particularly the pre- ferred, which closed with a net appre- ciation of 21%4 points, after touching a 4 mew high price level for the year. Satisfaction over Apart from general the closing of the Chrysler- -Dodge deal, some of today’s buying of the former stock was due to expectation of an in- crease in the present $3 dividend to a $4 basis. Studebaker, Hupp, Graham-Paige, Mack Truck, Pierce Arrow, Nash, Pack- ard, Chandler Cleveland, Willys-Over- land, Hudson and other motor stocks, favored in the buying, scored advances Tanging from large fractions to nearly 3 points. Union Carbide was among the leaders of the seasoned stocks, advancing to its highest price level for all time at 16414 and closing with a net gain of 3% points. The buying here was of the long pull variety, actuated by con- fidence that the company ultimately Will authorize a stock dividend in the neighborhood of 30 per cent. Other outstanding features on the upside included Timken, which gained 2% net; Kroger, with 1% net; Ameri- can Bosch, 1%; Coty, 1i,; Congoleum Nairn, 15; American Ice, at a new high for the year, 244; American Lin- seed, 214; Mathieson Alkali, 5%; Na- tional Distributors, 2%. and Victor Talking Machine, 1 point, in all of which there was heavy buying. Considerable strength also was dis- Played by Mexican Seaboard Oil, Rich- field Oil, Marland, Sun Oil, Texas Gulf Sulphur, Freeport Texas, Radio. Wright, General Cable A, International Nickel, Interborough Rapid Transit. Motor Wheel, Texas & Pacific, Warner Bros. Pictyres A, and others. As usually happens on a Saturday, the Higher prices reached during the first hour put a temptation in the way of traders who were fortunate or far- sighted enough to participate early in the upward move of the motor shares, and resultant profit taking cut. down many of the early gains. This also oes” case vi en divisions of the especia * ean p y among the g6pe The response of Atlantic Refining to the announcement made after the close yesterday of a 100 per cent increase in the authorized common was a decline of 5% points on che first few sales. Later, however, the stock rallied and at the close was down only 3 points net. There being no money market on Saturday, rates fixed for loans yester- Cay of course carried over unti) the new week. Thus the question of rates was out of the way for the moment, but the general run of traders showed little more than a disposition to even up against possible eventualities. Ex- perienced market observers do not look for any important change from pre- valling trading conditions in the near future. The prospect, 's is contended is for the continuation of the present gelective activity. A aumber ot factors making for bullishness can be cited, but under prevailing circumstances in the money market and ‘he absence of any promise of early relaxation in interest rates, the point is made that there its little likelihod of much broadening out of speculative operations for the rise. The business in foreign exchange was of the usual small week-end midsum- mer character, only a few transactions being made and many of the leading rates being unchanged. There were mixed changes in some documents, Dutch rallying 244 and Japanese which has been under pressure for some time, moved up 15 points. French trancs continued in supply at 3.91 tor cables Sterling was quiet, Canadian 4 points lower at 99.84. Chinese exchanges were weak.

sh we ¢ Nn or Qaesn WASHINGTON: SUNDAY, — a). AUGUST 1928. 15, 2 MORE OYLMPIC TITLES FALL TO FINNS’ PROWESS Indians Defeat Nationalson 4 Hits, 2-1 Sewell’s Timely Blows Cause Downfall of Braxton. Grant Winner in Box Duel, Aided by 2 Double Plays. Special to The Washington Post. LEVELAND, Aug. 4.—Joe Sewell, midget Cleveland shortstop, pre- vented Garland Braxton, Washing- ton southpaw, from hanging up a two- hit shutout victory over the Cleveland Indians in the series opener today, scor- ing one counter and driving in another to give the Tribe a 2-to-1 victory over the Nats Braxton hooked up with George Grant in a pretty hurling duel, with the Washington heaver having a marked advantage, but the Nats did not have a Joe Sewell in the line-up to poke over runs and, as a result, had many runners left stranded on the sacks. The Tribe nicked Braxton for only four hits, two of which were made by Sewell, while the Nats gathered seven off Grant’s delivery. Two snappy dou- ble plays nipped potential Washington rallies and pulled Grant out of a pair of precarious situations. The only Washington run was scored in the first inning and was a gift, Grant walking two batters and placing one in a position to score on Bluege’s single off Hodapp’s glove. Braxton retired eleven Indians in order, Joe Sewell getting the first hit with two out in the fourth inning. The Washington pitcher’s sweeping southpaw slants had the Cleveland sluggers baffled and few balls were hard hit. Barnes walked to open the game and went to third on consecutive infield outs provided by Rice and Goslin. Judge then strolled and Bluege socked one at Hodapp so fast that it bounded off the third sacker’s glove for a single, scoring Barnes. Cronin forced Bluege to end the rally. Cleveland broke into the scoring col- umn in the fourth. With two out Sewell singled and scored on Hodapp’s triple to the left-field bleachers. Mor- gan left Hodapp stranded at the hot corner by tapping weakly to Braxton. The winning run crossed the plate in the sixth and was scored after the first two batters in the inning had retired. Grant and Langford were out on infield rollers, but Lind singled and stole second. Up to the plate strode the mighty Sewell, who promptly smote the ball to right field, sending Lind across the plate with what proved tg be the winning run. Braxton was invincible after the «‘xth, but Washington also failed to score, so that lone tally was as good as twenty. The Nats threatened in the third but the Tribe inserted a double play to pull Grant out of a hole. Barnes doubled against the right field wall and went to third on Rice's sacrifice. Goslin walked and Judge lined one over second. But again the mighty Sewell stepped in, knockeq down the ball, whipped it to Lind and a double play Was completed. With one out in the fifth, walked and went to third on Rice’s single. Goslin, who is now leading the "American League in batting, whistled one down the first base line, but Mor- gan speared it, tossed to Joe Sewell, and took the return throw to double Goslin at first. Barnes Judge beat out a hit in the sixth, but the next three batters failed to move him off the initial cushion. Goslin doubled off the wall to open the eighth and West went into run for him, but little running was necessary. Langford made a thrill- ing catch of Judgé’s foul, Bluege flied to Harvel and Cronin popped to Lind, leaving West on second. With two out in the ninth, ‘Tate batted for Braxton and singled, but a pretty play on Barnes’ grounder by Morgan and Grant brought the game to a snappy conclusion. Barnes drew three passes from Grant and had only one official time at bat until he grounded out in the ninth inning. RUNS REQUIRED WASHINGTON. AB.

By FRANK H. YOUNG, TANLEY HARRIS’ three-year con- S tract as manayer of the Washing- ton Basek ul Club expires at the end of the present season, and with the Nationals dangerously near the cellar berth in the present American League race, the burning question in the minds of District fans seems to be: “Will it be renewea?’ President Clark C. Griffith, of the Nats-“is the only person able to give any definite infor- mation on the suyvjecu and he refuses to discuss the matte: in any way, shape or form The fact that the owner of the Nats diu not burst out in praise of Harris when asked rezardinz the club’s mana- gerial plans for 192% might be con- strued as tndicatis’z2 that Harris is not entirely Satisfactory, but Griffith spiked this deduction by calling atten- tion to a hard and fast rule which he always has followed—thai. he never has discussed the fu.iure prospects of a player or manager during the regular baseball season. the past Griffith more than fair with latter was signed tor two years as Washington manager just before the 1924 season started.

Aiteo: reaching these two decisions will ccme the job of convincing Harris that he is worth no more than offered This latter, no doubt, will be quite a task, for ball players are exceptionally hard to do business with, always look- for more, or at least as much as have been getting, and never ad- mitting that they are not as good as they once were.

H., Aug. 4 (A.P.).—Leon won the unofficial world speed crown here today when he defeated Ray Keech, holder of the world speed record on a straightaway track for automo- biles, in two of their three five-mile heats on the Rockingham track. Duray’s margin of victory was only a half length, which he gained after pass- ing Keech’s car in the last 500 yards of the third lap. Duray’s time was 2 minutes 21 4-5 seconds, and his average speed was 127.1l°-miles per hour. Duray won the first heat by traveling the five miles at a rate of 132.4 miles per hour, but Keech led in the second heat. His time was 2 minutes 21 sec- onds and his rate of speed 129 miles an hour. Though this contest was sanctioned by the American: Automobile Associa- tion, the governing body for all auto- mobile races in this country, it was held to settle an argument which started here on July 4, when Keech de- feated Duray, holder of the world’s curved track speed record, and thir- teen other drivers in a 200-mile race.

REIGH Derby ‘ctor -Triamphsin Feature Concedes Weight and Passes Gerard, Sun Beau in Stretch. Martie Flynn Comes From Rear to Win at Hawthorne. Bpecial to The Washington Post. ARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y., Aug. 4. Reigh Count, Mrs John D. Hertz’s Kentucky Derby winner, was brought back to the racés successfully here today when, under a burden of 127 pounds, he was the winner of the Miller Stakes, at 13-16 miles. He de- feated George D. Widener’s Gerard, carrying 115 pounds; Lawrence Water- bury’s Penalo, under an equai !mpost; the Wheatley Stable’s Diavolo and Wil- lis Sharpe Kilmer’s Sun Beau, under 115 pounds. Reigh Count’s effort was the race of @ champion. and when called upon at the head of the stretch by Lang, the homely chestnut ran over the ieader, Gerard, to win with something to spare. The race had a value of $5,325 to the winner, and the triumph was witnessed by both Mr. and Mrs. Hertz and a large party of friends. No timé was. lost at the barrier, and from a gvdod start Moon at once went out to set the pace with Gerard, the George D. Widener starter. He soon opened up a lead of a length and a half and was saving ground on the rail under a steadying restraint. Penalo and Sun Beau, well lapped, followed him, and the Kilmer colt was under wraps, With his mouth open. Chick Lang, riding with rare con- fidence, was a full length and a half farther away, and he was not asking Reigh Count to run. Dt- avalo, always slow to begin, brought up the rear. Through the back Stretch Sun Beau raced by Penalo to go Into second place, but Ge- rarc was still going smoothly inv front and showing no disposition to stop. Lang had moved - up slightly. with Reigh Count and he was at the heels of Penalo, while Diavolo also was be- ginnin; to clote some ground. This was the order out of the back stretch, end Lang had not yet made a serious move with the Hertz champion. Rounding into the stretch Relgh Count began the run that was to make him the winner. Lang swung to the Outside of the leaders in making the run, and he roused the son of Sun Reigh with the whip. Responding quickly, the chestnut was soon along- Side Gerard, which in the: meantime hed made both Sun Beau and Penalo stop. Through the final furlong it was not much of a trick for Reigh Count to score by two lengths, while Gerard was five lengths before Penalo.

Going into a deep, secret conference with himsclf he decided to build his plans for the future. He was not officially wfth- drawing his entry from the pennant scramble but he was going to get a running start for 1929. There was a rapia shift in the line-up of the Athletics. Ossie Orwoll, a pitcher, hitter and juvenile of promise, was placed on first base; Jimmy Foxx, a 2l-year-old kid with a pair of heavy- weight shoulders, a’terrific sock at the Plate and a likely looking catcher, was sent to third base, while George Haas, a high-stepping youth who had sat on the bench all season watching Ty Cobb and Tris Speaker play, was sent to cen- ter field, With that new combination—Orwoll on first, Foxx on third and Haas in cen- ter, the Athletics started to spurt. They were bowling over the second division clubs, playing with new life energy—and, well, interest in the American League derby, The Yankees, staging .» What looked to bea pennant party all by themselves, were bouncing against the rocks more than occasionally. They were losing double-headers to Such clubs as the Red Sox, Tigers White Sox and Browns. Their run- away advantage of 1314 games on July 1 had diminished to a slender lead—a lead where it now is pos- sible for the Macks to upset Miller J. Huggins’ baseball champions, “I am candid enough to admit this has been a big surprise to myself,” said Connie Mack, “and you're to see us plugging. aiong as we always have been. “IT will not. say we are going to catch and pass the Yaukees, but if those fel- lows keep on slipping they may find us| right on their heels.’ .

With Mickey Cochrane Perkins around for service with the mask and mitt, young, Jimmy forced to earn his yearly salary in the bullpen section with the warm-up pitchers. Step by step, however, and Cyrus Mack started just ‘as he did years ago with McInnis, Eddie Col- lins, Jack Barry, Frank Baker, Amos Strunk, Wallie Schang and other mem- bers of his world champicns. In 1927, Foxx was given.a hand at first base, Mack realizing that he would have to find another position for his young prospect with Cochrane good for 125 games behind the plate. When his squad gathered tor training this past spring, Mack paid close attention to Foxx, He saw him shoot terrific line drives .against the pitchers in the major feague exhibitions and was con- “tident the youngster was ready for a regular job with his cast. ~ Third base was the position picked out for Foxx when Sammy Hale re- ported with a sore arm, Like many re- cruits before him, Foxx has grasped the opportunity and although Mack doesn’t say as much it is extremely doubtful whether Hale ever will regain his job. There was Joe Hauser—hitting home runs but not much with an average. Connie was going to experiment a bit. He placed Orwoll, a hitter of promise on the initial sack. The Milwaukee product really was an excellent im- personation of George Sisler after a week's service, Then when Cobb started ailing, Mack turned over the center field pasture to George Haas, obtained from the At- lanta Crackers. And there they are—Orwoll on first, Foxx on third and Haas in center, giv- ing the Athletics new life and fighting spirit. Digging deep into the! pennant data this season, Mack does not pa'w around for an excuse or an a'ibi to defend the early slump of his club. “Somehow. or other we couldn’t play our best against the Yan- kees,” explained Mack. “We lost 13: our of 18 games to Huggins’ - teame which is a big handicap to — overcome. -_ 4 “J have heard many players in the | Teague say the Yankees are not that better than my team. Perhaps y’re not, but you can’t get away the truth, and in this instance ures do not lis—we fost 13 out of 18, to the Yankees. 2 we done as much as split the 18 ese it is easy to see where we would be.

Finland’s hardy sons again swept the boards today in the Olympic steeplechase final, taking the first three places to monopolize the vic- tory flagstaffs, but the Nurmi-Ri- tola dynasty that had been con¢ sidered impregnable was toppled for the first time. On a cold, rainswept course, under conditions that made this tough event tougher, Nurmi, looking more like a bald old man than at any previous time, finished second and the hithe erto famous iron man, Willie Ritola, the champion, quit, while a spry young Finn, Toivo Loukola, galloped on to win |in record-breaking fashion. Loukola, 22-year-old Helsingfors pacer ring beat the great Nurmi by 50 ards in the startling time of 9 min- oni 214-5 seconds for the 3,000-meter chase over hurdles and Water Jumps, isurpassing Ritola’s record made in the 1924 games by nearly twelve seconds Nurmi’s second straight defeat in as many days was sensational enough, but Ritola’s virtual breakdown and with- drawal on the last lap, after running stunned observers who the fivying Finns dominate races they have entered for so long.

Whatever discomfort he Suffered this afternoon under miserable racing con- ditions, Paavo had enough running left to set the pace until Loukola took command. After that - Nurmi contented himself with alternately running easily in second place and coach- ing along the youngster over Anderson, who came through third to conrplete the’ Finnish sweep. Ritola withdrew on the last lap, The two Americans, W, O. Spencer and Mel Dalton, were last. Relay trials completed the day’s footracing program, producing sensa- tional performances on a watery track. American teams came through all their tests in winning fashion in the men’s 490 and 1,600 meter races and the women’s 400 meters, finals in all of which will share the final day’s spot- light with the marathon tomorrow, The word’s record for the women’s 400-meter relay was broken by the Ca- nadian team and equaled by the American quartet in winning their re- spective heats in 492-5 seconds and 494-5 seconds. The American team was anchored by the 100-meter chame- pion, Elizabeth Robinson, of Chicago. and included three girls from the Mill- rose A, A., of New York, Mary Wash- burn, Jessie Cross and Loretta McNeil Germany, France, Holland and Italy were the other qualifiers for the firrals. ; Ray Barbuti, 400-meter hero, an- chored the winning 1,600-meter team which beat the Canadians, but Bud Spencer, of Stanford University, mak- ing his fii t appearance of the games, ran the fastest leg, which was 481-5 seconds. The British team, anchored by Douglas Lowe, 800-meter champion, registered the best time despite the fact that it had the worst conditions, running in a pouring rain, Germany, France and Sweden also qualified for the finals, Yankee sprinters flashed within a fifth of a sécond of the new world’s record, winning the fastest 400-me- ter relay heat in 41 1-5 without much opposition.

HARRIS’ STATUS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 15. clamor for—and get—their share, but when it loses they take the attitude that that’s the owners’ hard luck In Harris’ case, one thing is certain, and that is he was not worth $33,338.33 to the Washington club this season. Tl.is healthy stipend was based on his ebility as a manager and as a player There is no question but what he has) fal‘'en down in many respects as a leader, while be has been of little t‘alue as a player, In neither case. however, is he entirely to blame. Harris’ record as a manager during his four previous years here is exceptionally good, having netted a world championship, two American League pennants, a third place and a fourth. As a matter of fact, it is still possible for the Nationals to finish in the money in the current race, During his two winning years there was little criticism of Harris, but it must be remembered that “second guesses” are not made until after the first guess has failed, and there has been an unusual amount of “second guessing” done this season, While the Nat were winning, managing was no difficult task, as* the team swept along on_ its own momentum, and with wotld-_evies cuts staring them in the face the players always did their best. There is a saying in baseball that “a good team makes a good manager,” ar.d in Marris’ case he was further pro- tected ffom making mistakes during his two winning years by having Fred Marberry in superform to rush in whenever a starting pitcher showed signs of wobbling. Conditions have been’ gradually changing since the last pennant victory and Harris now finds his job a difficult one, In many cases, his judgment has been faulty during games, while he ap- parently is taking the easiest way by not being a_ strict disciplinarian, the result being that his men, with only a few exceptions, are not playing heads- up ball and are giving the impression of loafing on their jobs, As a player, Harris has been out for one injury or another much of the time and, as a result, has not been able’ to keep ‘himself in a top condition, When at his best, Harris ranked among the elite of the league’s second-sackers, but his absence and his inability to star as of yore this season has been one of the greatest factore in his team's failure. The “boy” manager of 1924 is no Jonger a boy. He has been playing profesHonal baseball since 1915, will be 32 years old next November > and may now be classed as a slip- ng veteran, one sign of age in a Panett way being the Charley Horse—his first-which he pulled early this qenaon Joe Judge has ‘been termed “brittle” for many years, but for his twelve sea- sons in the majors he has averaged 128 zames a year, while,he has missed but so far this season, In his “brittlest” days, sage de record was not as bad as that of 4 te for: the present cam- eS the Nats’ leader having plaged only 65 games tc date in which he — been unable to hit better than With Bh Prag his record as a player a poor one, if he is aentiihien as ae 7 season he no doubt will be forced to ane’ a substantial cut in ry | members of | Mohile | | St. Paul..

Myers could have fouled the Englishman’s blade, causing Collet to be disqualified, but he gave way, coming perilously near the rushes grow- ing along the canal bank. The referee waved Collett back inte” his No. 2 position and he probably lost more distance steering than he gained by getting out of the wind, The best indication of the variable conditions showed in the heat which the Australian, Bob Pearce, won from the Dane, Sehwartz, for the duration of this race only, the wind shifted completely, gave Pearce a tail breeze and he sailed over the 2,000. meters in 7 minutes, 28 seconds, which is the best time made by any souller in this regatta. The Dane eliminated by Pearce, made better time than any winner today. It took Myers 7 minutes, 46 4-5 seconds to cover the course in the wind which prevailed for that particular heat.

By AL DEMAREL (Former Pitcher New York Gtants). Adolfg Luque, the star Cuban pitcher of the Cincinnati Reds, speaks quite a lot of English now, but when he first horned into the big ledgue, they had much fun with him. Once Adolfo, wishing to show his deep appreciation of many kindnesses done him by the lady who rented rooms to him, asked the players to frame him a suitable presentation speech. !§2 learned it by much effort, then sought the lady and bowing low said: “Eet geef me de greates pleas’ dat I han’ you deese rose .and 1 weesh only dat [ could punch you in the face to show how mooch I esteem you!” Dave.

The strongest rivalry prevailed be- tween Egbert and Herman Brix all during, their school-day sports. Egbert was a little better than his brother until they entered the Univer- sity of Washington. He was two years older and at the time Herman enrolled was the Uni- versity’s best shot putter, Egbert would heave the shot 42 feet and Herman 40. Day after day they tossed the ball, always striving to beat each other. Before long Herman had equaled his brother’s longest put. .After that Egbert didn’t turn out every day, but Herman kept on. When Herman reached 44 feet, his brother laid his track suit aside. That was two years ago. The rivalry had ended, but Herman continued, raising his mark inch by inch. TAPPAHANNOCK WINS.

Ross Council In Fight to _ Hold Lead Clubmen May Tie by Downing Junior Order Team. ‘Chances of Auths De- T pend on Defeat of Army Medicos. HE Douglas A. C. will make its bid for the unlimited Section B crown of the Capital City League ‘today When it engages the leading Ross _Vouncil Nine on the Washington Bar- racks Diamond, It will be practically the last Oppor- tunity for the Douglas A. C. Team, as a defeat would make its chances of Winning the title very slim, while a victory would bring Ross Council down on an equal footing. The Douglas Nine has lost two games, while the Ross Council Team was upset last week. for the first time this season by the Arniy Medical Cen- ter Nine, Should the Douglas A. C. defeat the Junior Order Nine, the Auths, as well, Would benefit and the three teams would battle it out until the final week of the schedule, the winner of the Ross Council-Auth game and the Douglas A. C. likely to be the two teams in the final running. With Baker and Roche in shape, the Ross Council Nine is deter- mined to play the game of its Hfe to protect its one-game margin. A vietory today and a victory later over Auths would assure the team the pennant. The Auths may encounter troubie today in that they face the Army Med- ical Center Team on the latter's dia- mond. It was on the Medicos’ home field last week that the Junior Order Nine mict its first defeat. Suttenfield, who pitched against the leaders and allowed only three hits, if he retains his form, will cause the Auths plenty of trouble. Auths will undoubtedly rely on the arm of Duettermann. The Clovers are without a league game, as the District: Heights A. C, has dropped from the league and the Clovers receive a forfeit. The Clovers do not propose to remain idle when- ever there is no league game, as they have challenged the leading unlimited teams of this section. The fourth scheduled game is be- ween the Army War College Team and the Anacostia Bagles. It has been Nsted for Congress Heights Field at 3 o'clock. On the basis of its showing last week, the War College Team will force the Eagles to extend themselves ¢» win. The Eagles, with a strong club, are playing the brand of ball which would have carried them to a pennant had they secured an earlier start. Hartford Seniors Meet Capital A. C. The Hartford Seniors will meet the Capital A. C. today in a special game at 3 o’clock on No. 3 diamond. The Hartford Capital City League game with Brown and Wood, which was to have been played on the same 4dla- mond, has been postponed. Thompson, who has been keeping the Hardfords in the race in the Capi- tal City League second series, will probably face the Capitals.

The Lincoln Post team will receive us first test on Tuésday in the regional tournament games in Baltimore, unless it is lucky enough to draw a bye. With One represéntative from Baltimore, Delaware, Pennsylvania and West Vir- ginia together with Lincoln Post, the teams will draw numbers on Monday afternoon to determine the two teams which shall play Tuesday’s games Teams that draw numbers one and two will play On Tuesday. Therefore, if the District champions are lucky to draw Nos. 3, 4 or 5, they will idle until Wednesday. On Wednesday, the winner of Tues- day's game ‘will meet the team which drew No. 3 and on this same day 4 and 5 will clash. Thursday the two win- ners of Tuésday will meet for the cham- pionship.

The injuries Friday to Simonds and Henderson have only servéd to instill within the team the determination to fight all the harder. The club has fought an uphill battle all season against numerous odds and stands ready to pull througr in the regional games The team is not going to rely upon the hitting or general all around ability of any one player, but is go- ing into the tournament all expecting to hit and fleld af a pace that will re- turn them the winner.

Ellipse at 3 o’clock The Aztecs and Keanes appear to have tough assignments before them today, first, on account of the ime portance of the series games this morning and secondly, because of the pace they will have to keep against the fresher teams they play in the afternoon. Astecs especially will be hit, as no other pitcher on their team comes up to the standard of Lefty Fulmer. Fulmer will be probably worked in the morning game, while in Mannix will hinge their fate of the afternoon clash. The Keanes will be better fixed in that they have a quartet of flingers capable of turning in geod efforts on the mound. Andy Oehman will go against Tack Ensor, of Brown and Wood, in the morning clash, while Al Farrell, Wade and Kelser will be available for the afternoon session. The D. J. Kaufmans, leader during the early part of the first half series, but loser in the end, will be playing today to get somewhere in the second half series in thelr game against the Aztecs.

She led at 5—4 and again at on her own service each time, but was unable to make the grade in the second set. She never had a chafice to win. §6—h service overbalanced wins on servi-2-in the first set, 13 to 3. and errors in both sets mounted to almost impossible totgls. High temper- ature and high humidity were he.d partly responsible. Miss Jacobs becomes the youngest Seabright champion at 20 and succeeds to the toga of Mrs. Molla Mallory. Washburn, of the winning doubles team. has been three times before a member of a winning team here, In 1920. 1921 and 1922.

American Boat, Patsey, Leads British Defender Gosport, England, Aug. 4 (A.P.).— The American boat, Patsey, held-a short lead at the end of the first day’s rac- ing for the International Cup. Skip- per Joe Weaver, of the Patsey, and A. Jones, owner and skipper of the Brit- ish defender, Little Nell, furnished a keen competitive struggle, first one and then the other forging ahead. The American boat led with a score of 35 for the first day, while the Brit- ish craft scored 31. The French yacht, Argo, with Jacques Sottas as skipper, was third with a score of 12. German and Swedish boats withdrew. The wind was northeasterly and fluky, providing a test for skippers rather than the. little vessels. The morning racing ended with the Ameri- cans leading with a score of eight to four for France and three for Great Britain, but in the afternoon the cham- pion, Little Nell, displayed clever sail- ing and almost evened the count with the leading challenger. ‘Blue Law’ Test Game Off at Hagerstown ~ Special to The Washington Post. Hagerstown, Md., Aug. 4.—The sched- uled game tomorrow, in defiance of State's Attorney Harper Ballentine’s threat to charge violators of the Sun- day blue laws with conspiracy, will not be played, due to the refusal of the Chambersburg, Pa., Club to play. The club directors have voted not to take a chance of conviction under the Maryland conspiracy act, which pro- vides for imprisonment or a fine of $2,000 upon conviction. This action on the part of Chambersburg has left Hagerstown without an opponent for, tomorrow and the local officials have decided not to attempt\a game with a semipro aggregation as opponents. The game was to be played in an ef- fort to force a showdown in other sections of the State, including Balti- more and Cumberland, ere profes- sional ball on the Sabbatlf is not mo- lested by the authorities, despite the ne be wyroeliyet: Sine pamMne i ' [lation of the State law. profes- | -Alan | tc.ated held under its ausptl- | | ' accepted an American} Club, anni- | | | | bounced 'S and 3.

I confess this well-known person is a stranger yet to me, He is certainly elusive, hard to f ind; That he’s something kin to mythical I’m sure you will agree, And he shuns me in a manner most unkind I have mingled. oft with statesmen, with presidents and kinga, And with other dignitaries, great and high; And as hope within my bosom continually springs, I expect to meet this stranger, by and by. If some day I'll play my irons without ever looking up, nd will hit my drives and brassies straight and far, Split the pin with my approaches, then putt dead into the cup— Maybe then at last I'll meet him—Old Man Par. the Wa: ington Baseball Club, and James E. Baines, fellow mem- b of the Columbia Club, play yolf together whenever the ball team is out of town. They have all sorts of wagers, bu: there is one long-standing agree- ment which is never omitted. The player who scores a 2 on any hole is paid $1, and ‘the payment must be ma bef-re leaving the green. It is a cash trgnsaction, with no , until the clubhouse is reached upon their return. One day last week Griffith ran down a 10-foot putt for a birdie 2 on the fourth hole. Baines extracted a dollar from his y>‘:ctbook and handed it over. When the next short hole, the eighth, was reached Baines stood ner- vously on the green and watched Grif- fith putt. The ball ran up to the lip of the cup, but failed to drop, and Baines, who had the dollar bill in his hand, put it back in his pocket. On the thirteenth Griffith again putted for a 2, and the ball hit the cup and out. Once more Baines breathed a sigh of relief. On the six- teenth Griffith had another chance to score a 2, but the ball rimmed the cup. C ine C.’ GRIFYTITH, president of - | The last two holes are par 4s.

Then he had a 12-foot putt for a 2, Sighting the line carefully, he hit the ball firmly, and it rolled and rolled and. rolled—untll finally ° it dropped in the cup. “Come acro: with that Baines to Griffith. And Griffith did. he cone- “Tl have going to Clark,” said Baines, Maybe you will and dollar,” saic Tom Moore, of the Indian Spring who, as usual, is spending the summer at Shawntee-cn-the-Delaware, last week won the $300 Buckwood trophy, defeating Aiea Coles, Philadel- »yhia Country Club, in the final round, Moore, whu was 1 up at the turn, led practically all the way and had the satisiaction of winning one hole by chipping a 3-yard mashie shot into the cup. He hadi a harder strug- gle in the semifina! tound, which he won by defeatiny, Martin Issler, of | Shawnee, on the nineteenth hole. In the recent Marylanu Club tourna- ment Harry D. Cashman of the Wash- ington Golf and Country Club, was playing against [Thomas S Keleher, jr. of Manor, on the Hillendale course. The fifth hole has « blind green, and when the players "cached it they were surprised to find that three beagle hounds, belonging to a residence near- by, were having a wonderful time play- ing .with Cashmuns Dall upon the green. They were rolling it in all di- rections, delighted with a totally novel plaything. After the dogs hae been driven away, there was some discussion as to what should be done, The rules say that if a bail at rest be “dis- placed by any avency outside the match it shall be replaced, but if it was in motion when displaced it shall be played from where it lies. Was the ball moving or at rest? Nobody knew. Cashman would not accept the bene- fit of the doubt, and played the ball from where it was lying, some distance from the green. He lost the hole. The sixteenth hol. on the Bannock- burn course is 580 yards in length. Last week Leo F. Pass, the club champion, reached the green itr two shots, a drive and a brassy. He puited for an eagle 3, but had to be content with a bir- die 4. The weekly women’s golf tourna- ments at the Manor Club are now played on Tuesday instead of Monday and Mrs. H. B. Hird, chairman of the women’s golf committee, remarks that the committee is more than satisfied with the enthusiasm shown in these events, “Most of the women who play in these little club affairs,” she says, “have never played competitive golf before and I believe we are going to develop some very good players to com- pete in other tournaments.” Miss Helen Fay was the winner of the first flight last week, with Mrs. H. B. Leary runner-up. In the second fi flight the winner was Mrs. Jd. Geddes, with Mrs, E. L. Breining runner-up. Mrs. J, W. Cramer and Mrs. Ramsay were the winner and runner-up respectively in the third flight, while .in the fourth flight Mrs, J. Hasley was the winner and Miss Dora Platt the runner-up, Mrs, R. S. Smith won the fifth flight with Mrs, Free- man runner-up, Lorin S. Pfautz, of the Bannockburn Club, writes from Houston, Tex., where he has gone on a business trip, that he had an opportunity to play golf on the River Oaks Club with J. H. Lauderdale, a former member of Bannockburn, and now a member of the board of direc- tors of the River Oaks Club. Pfautz started with a birdie 3 on the 393-yards first hole and ended with a par 4, with a few scattering pars in between, but he says that his score on the other holes is a sad, sad tale. When Tommy Armour, the Congres- sional Club professional, won the na- tional open championship last year he had an odd iron in his bag manufac- tured by a clubmaker in Scotland. When he went abroad after his victory he discovered that the canny Scotch- man was advertising that this particu- lar club was an essential factor in winning the title foi Armour. °The. latter naturally protested, but was sat- isfied when the ciubmaker presented him with four sets of finely-matched irons, three of which he sold upon his return to this country for a handsome sum. Ray J. Wise stood on the first tee.. of the Washington Gelf and Coun- ‘try Club last week and accepted a that he would play the course in- yt with not more than strokes for each breezing along in fine fashion until he reached the fourth hole, a par 5 dog-leg bordered by woods. By the time he had finished.battling with the trees he holed out in 12. Even with this handicap he needed only a par 3 on the ninth hole to complete the outward journey in 44. Unfortu- nately, he took rour strokes. It is needless to say that he won both the second nine and che match Leo McNerhany has been appointed professional at the Kenwood Golf Course, situated 9n the River road west of Tenleytown and Bethesda. A -native of Washington, Meinerhany was many years ago associatea with Donald Ball at the old Suburban Club and later served a year und a half with James Crabb at the Congressional Club. More recently he was »rofessional at Rock Creek Park. A team from the Argyle Club will play against the Bannockburn team on the Bannockburn course this afternoon, and will be selected from a long list of Argyle players, including William P.

The personnel of the Bannockburn tram will include the same players who last Sunday defeated the Beaver Dam team 21 points to 4.

His score is all the more creditable be- cause he took nine strokes on the treacherous fifteenth hole and finished with three putts on the eighteenth green. Roy A.

FOREIGN LIST IS STEADY New York, Aug. 4 (A.P.).~Heat and worry combined to keep the bond mar- ket quiet today. Theheat kept many traders from the floor and uneasiness over the credit situation served to limit the volume of sales, although prices were somewhat firmer in reflection of the strength of stocks.

~ hereaiter hold RESERVE. OFFICERS BOARD MAKES MANY RECOMMENDATIONS ‘\ Committee Holds War Depart- ment Should Have Sole Power Over Them. OPPOSITION REPORTED TO POLICIES FEATURE 300 Hours Credit Is Called Insufficient Qualification for Promotion. Many recommendations for changes in the Army reserve have been set forth by a committee of reserve officers which has been in session here consid- ering operation of administrative poll- cies governing appointment, assign- ment and promotion of reserve officers. Its most important opinion was one contained in its majority report that affairs of the officers’ reserve be solely and entirely committed to the War De- partment under the chief of staff. This Stated further that it was felt that as the reserve corps is a part of the Army and a strictly Federal force, its affairs should be handled as are those of the regular Army, the policies made by the general staff, and the operations con- ducted by the adjutant general’s office. Opposition is reported to the “policies” feature of the foregoing opinion, how- ever. The board also was of the opinion that no new and independent organiza- tion should be created by Congress within the War Department or other- wise, which solely affects the reserve corps, the reserve officers’ training corps,, and the citizens’ military camps, jointly and severally. In the committee’s opinion, 300 hours’ credit is not a proper or sufficient qual- ification for promotion in the reserve and it recommended that this provision be stricken from the regulations. It believes further that the enlisted re- serve corps is a yYJtal part of the organ- ized reserve project and should be de- veloped when appropriations are avail- able. “Guard Corps” Advocated. Among the 30 recommendations of the board probably the most novel was the opinion that the national defense act be so amended as to create an additional corps of officers to be desig- nated the “guard corps,” or by some other appropriate name other than the officers’ reserve corps, and in which all officers holding commissions in the national guard may be commissioned. Upon being so commissioned, they may then have all the rights, privileges and status that national guard officers may now have in the officers’ reserve orps, but such rights, shall be in the new corps and not in the officers’ re- :orve corps as now constituted, and to vhich new corps all officers of the national guard now holding commis- sions in the officers’ reserve corps shall be transferred. It also recom- mended that the law be further amended so that officers and enlisted men of the national guard shall not commissions in the officers’ reserve corps. It should be possible, according to the board’s findings, for a reserve offi- cer to transfer to or from an unas- signed status, or the so-called inactive list, upon his own request at any time and without regard to the date of expiration of his commission if or when such application for transfer shall have been approved by the corps area commander. Sees Promotion Stimulated. The board also was of the opinion that an officer should not be placed on the inactive list by action of any au- nority outside of his own voluntary ' tion or automatic action by failure co earn his 200 hours credit or a cer- tificate of capacity within the five years. Eventually the operation of the in- active status will stimulate promotion in the reserves, board members think, although they believe that immediate stimulation of reasonable promotion is important. They have therefore rec- ommended a study of the policy of temporarily increasing the authorized strength in grade in each regiment or equivalent unit to an amount not to exceed 25 per cent and that such then authorized strength in grade with the increment of increase will be eligible for promotion. The board is of the opinion that second lieutenants in the reserve corps may be promoted during their first appointment periods irrespective of a vacancy; provided such officers other- wise qualify for promotion to the grade of first lieutenant of his branch under regulations in effect at the time appli- cation fof promotion is made. Its re- port provides that this policy shall likewise apply to all existing second lieutenants without regard to their ap- pointment period, and recommends that the general staff make a study of this question.

NO RELIGIOUS TEST. A dispatch from Raleigh, N. C., states that an organization of Wake County Democrats opposed to Gov. Smith - was formed on August 2. The meeting was addressed by the Rev. J. Powell Tucker, D. D., pastor of the First Baptist Church, of Raleigh, “who delivered an attack upon the Catholic Church and upon newspaper editors who criticize the clergy for politi- cal activity.” The new organization is opposing Gov. Smith ostensibly on account of the pro- hibition question. But the Rev. J. Pow- ell Tucker was not as hypocritical as some of his brethren of the cloth, He discussed the true reason for opposing Gov. Smith. It is because Gov. Smith is a member of the Catholic Church that some of the non-Catholic clergymen in the South are engaging in “political ac- tivity.” There is one admirable trait possessed in common by the Rev. Dr, Tucker and Gov, Smith. They are not hypocrites. Gov. Smith is a Catholic and makes no bones of it, and Dr. Tucker is opposed to a Catholic candidate for President and makes no bones of it. If other clergymen who really oppose Gov. Smith on account of religion and who try to conceal their un-American intolerance under the cloak of prohibition would be as honest as Dr. Tucker they would at least escape the criticism that fell like vitriol from the Master’s lips when He denounced. the hypocrites of His mortal day. One vice is enough for any one, especially a clergy- man. Why add hypocrisy. to intolerance? Dr. Tucker seems to be a little hazy as to the meaning of “political activity.” The newspapers that are criticizing the clergy for injecting religion into politics are not denouncing these gentlemen for being Republicans or Democrats. Many famous preachers have been keenly inter- ested in politics and have made stump speeches, Republican or Democratic, without a word of criticism from any- body. Clergymen have a right to engage in politics, but they have no right to drag the church in after them. If. Re- publicans or Democrats should enter the churches and try to drive out faithful pastors of the flock because of their political faith true worshipers would denounce the act as a desecration of religion. Dr. Tucker would be shocked if he were asked to desecrate the Sabbath day; but is it not his duty to keep the church holy, as well as the Sabbath? Still another admirable trait is pos- sessed in common by Dr. Tucker and Gov. Smith. Each worships God ac- cording to the dictates of his own conscience. Fortunately, each of them is an American and is, therefore, im- mune from persecution on account of his religious belief. The Constitution also protects each of them in case he should be a candidate for public. office by this provision : No religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States. Dr. Tucker and Gov. Smith can go as far as they like in criticizing each other. on political grounds, but neither of them can be called a faithful American titizen if he attempts to apply the religious test to the other as a qualification to. public SSS UTILITY SALARIES, | The activities of the Public Utilities Commission have broken out in-a new spot. Its personnel is now demanding an increase in salaries from $7,500 to $9,000, urging this additional pay largely on the aim that the duties of the Public Util- Wile , wa eee a ee ee eee eer Gee Lear ee wen Sere Tt eeeeee eee ero . er. ae * ‘ « ‘o8 wd : n> Netting eee — te eh ¥r FPR OS a | en - ath ORS NO A a, Ce PO Te ee > - Re ke OF Ro ee Me re See Ae PO at 3 ; nego =e © asa Ws i Tae ee ee _ ity Commissioners are as onerous as those of the Commissioners of the Dis- trict of Columbia. ~~ The comparison lacks adequate founda- tion. The District Commissioners are burdened with varied and heavy re- sponsibilities. They have the prepara- tion and disbursement of a budget in- volving nearly $40,000,000 annually; and the Police and Fire Departments, the construction of public works and the administration of almost numberless bureaus are under their immediate jurisdiction. They are called upon daily to deal with intricate questions that directly concern the welfare and safety of citizens. The services that they render to the community would, if per- formed for some great commercial or- ganization, command much higher sal- aries than they receive, but there is some degree of compensation in the honor which attaches to the position. The work that they do is much more arduous than the duties which devolve upon the Public Utilities Commission. DON QUIXOTE OF IDAHO. Senator Borah makes an appeal to both major political parties to limit their campaign expenditures to $3,000,- 000 each. Greater expenditures, he says, would constitute “an attempt to debauch the American electorate.” Many public men have been victims of the hallucination that evoke such visions as Senator Borah has conceived, but most of them have recovered and no longer look upon American citizens as poor fish who, unless protected by the superior intelligence and virtue of self- appointed guardians, would be ‘“de- bauched” by campaign slush money. But Senator Borah’s case is more serious. He sees more devils than vast hell can hold. He feels it to be his duty to save the American people from being de- bauched. He gives warning to the crooks who spend campaign funds that he is watching them. $3,000,000 each, but if they dare to ex- pend $3,000,001 each they must expect to be exposed as corruptionists engaged in purchasing the dumb cattle that compose the American electorate. There being no other protector of these poor, corruptible creatures, Don Quixote of Idaho threat- ens to seize his lance, mount the Rozin- ante of desperate valor and charge the giant windmills of his imagination. The American electorate numbers about 60,000,000, of whom 30,000,000 are so dumb that they never vote and, there- fore, can not be debauched. The remain- ing 309,000,000 need a guardian. ~ Six million dollars might be expended in edu- cating these witless voters, but if more than that sum is expended upon them it will constitute an attack upon their virtue. Each of them can stand 20 cents’ worth of exploitation. If subjected to the accursed influence of 25 cents his patriotism would evaporate and he would sell the United States to the first slick campaign manager who could pro- duce the glittering two-bit piece. This being the situation, as Senator Borah sees it, there is nothing to do but to warn the Republican and Democratic parties. that they must not attempt to purchase the American people. If they heed the warning, well and good; if they do not Don Quixote will mount his re- nowned and incomparable steed and go forth to accomplish the most super- human slaughter of windmill that the astonished world has ever witnessed. THOSE WHO DO NOT VOTE. ~ Tt is predicted that the largest vote ever cast at a presidential election in this Country will be polled next November. The .assertion would be true even if it were predicated only upon the natural increase in population. A famous lec- turer once remarked, however, that the two great subjects in which the Ameri- can people were interested were religion and politics. When these two factors become interwoven, as they may be in the present campaign, there may be a state of public feeling that will find ex- pression at the polls to an unprecedented degree. In the monumental work, ‘Modern Democracies,” with which Lord Bryce crowned a notable life, he observes that in an ideal democratic community “the average citizen will give close and con- stant attention to public affairs, recog- nizing that this is his interest as well as his duty.” Judged by this criterion and taking a presidential election as an acid test, it will be found that the United States is by no means an ideal democracy. On the contrary, many millions of Ameri- can eitizens stand today. convicted of a dereliction of duty for which there is no excuse, _ According to the census of 1920, which ‘gives the latest official figures, there grr Xs a he = tie 7 es FORA ET ee Ee oN. RR ry ee ahaa New, 3s see ibis air 3 % é 3 eA Ry > used . x They can expend. were at that time in the United States, in round numbers, 60,800,000 males and females 21 years of age and over. The total vote for President in 1920 was 26,674,171. In 1924 the population had increased to 112,000,000, but the vote for the presidential nominees of all par- ties, including Prohibitionists, Socialists, Progressives and Laborites, was only 29,- 000,000. It is true that we must deduct from the nonvoting population the 4,000,000 negro men and women of voting age in the ten States of the Solid South; the 3,000,000 illiterate men and women in other States; the nonvoters in peni- tentiaries, asylums and eleemosynary in- stitutions; some voters in four States, Alabama, Louisiana, Oregon and Rhode | Island, where a property qualification is requisite, and, finally, aliens, vagrants, tramps, delinquent taxpayers and per- sons under guardianship. Even with all these nonvoters, not more than 8,000,000 in all, wiped off the slate, there is still an imperative necessity for turning on the searchlight and discovering why from 20,000,000 to 25,000,000 American citizens do not participate in a presiden- tial election. Where statistics are obtainable, as in Illinois, it has been proved that the women are largely responsible for swell- ing the nonvoting total, but the number is not sufficient to absolve the male voter from all blame. It would be impossible in imited space to make a thorough sur- vey of conditions throughout the coun- try, but it is worth while to consider an individual State. Maryland is immedi- ately contiguous to the National Capital. In intelligence, material wealth and pure Americanism it is equal to, if not above, the average. How does Maryland con- duct itself in a presidential election? In 1920 it had a voting population of 862,- 391. The votes cast for all presidential candidates aggregated 416,743—just 50 per cent. There was even a smaller vote, 358,630, in 1924. When in a State !ike Maryland more people let a presidential election vo by default than cast a ballot, one wonders what is the matter with our body politic. There would be some excuse for these civic slackers if the election laws dis- couraged voting, but they do not. Many statutes are extremely liberal. The trouble may be that the gospel of the moral obligation of the ballot is not preached with sufficient emphasis. It ought to be made plain that the men and women who can vote and who do not vote are unworthy citizens. They under- mine the foundations of democracy. This is as true as Holy Writ, and yet there are millions and millions of this class in this republic. How are they to be awakened to the performance of their solemn duty? The solution of this prob- lem should be sought by all parties and all citizens. SUBURBAN POLICE PATROL. Patrol of suburban districts at night by policemen and detectives in automo- biles is having a good effect in preventing crime in several American cities. The New York nocturnal patrol has been ef- fective in catching automobile thieves, gangmen operating in automobiles, rob- beries in outlying shops, and holdups of belated wayfarers. Crooks who formerly used their own or stolen cars now resort to taxicabs, as the police patrol is vigi- lant in spotting all automobiles. This automobile patrol has been estab- lished in Washington suburbs, and is proving much more efficient than the old mounted police system. The police cars can cover large areas, and are capable of overtaking criminals as well as de- tecting them. With the rapid extension of suburban areas it is impossible to fur- nish roundsmen for all of them, and the frequent visit of the automobile patrol has been found to be effective in driving away sneak thieves and burglars. These communities can take care of themselves to a great extent in daylight. An allowance of a few more powerful automobiles is needed in order to make a more thorough patrol of the suburbs at night. THE POSTAL DEFICIT. It is sincerely to be hoped that Presi- dent Coolidge and the Director of the Budget will not become unduly exercised over the threatened deficit in the Post- office Department next year. It is true that the estimated shortage, $100,0C0,- 000, is excessive as compared with recent postal receipts and expenses, but it should be borne in mind that mail-carry- ing and delivery comes into closer rela- tion with the public than any other serv- ice. | As a matter of official pride . Post- master General New, whose administra- tion has been marked by a maximum of eff iciency and a minimum of complaint, ‘VL ACCEPT IT IN PRINCIPLE , BUT IT WiLL GO THE WAY OF THE OTHERS, UNLESS, IT HAS BEHIND IT THE Pil: ee SAME SPIRIT AND | Gif 3 INTENT EMBODIED me * % INTHE KELLOGG: “TREATY ANOTHER Az; > ATR) BEAR: . =A || Fewer Treaties and More Good Faith. might like to see his department on a thoroughly self-sustaining basis. [If through no fault of his own he fails to reach this ideal, no one will complain. He has been handicapped by the enact- ment of laws giving substantial increases to night workers and expenditures for rent, allowances, &c., and also by the recent action of the Interstate Commerce Commission in granting some $60,000,- 000 to the railroads as additional compen- sation. If, however, the carriers are en- titled to this raise and if larger pay to employes insures greater incentive to ef- ficient and enthusiastic service, the money will not have been expended in vain. The Postoffice Department, unlike other branches of the Government, is revenue-producing. Not for a single moment, however, should the idea prevail that it must be self-supporting. No one, for instance, would advocate a decrease in the rural delivery service for the pur: pose of saving money. The extension of air mail service, even if it should fail to pay its own way, is most desirable. The postal service means everything to the Nation—the dissemination of _intelli- gence, the extension of business, ade- quate facility of communication. As long as it accomplishes these great results the cost is not a vital matter. Above all, there should be no serious consideration of an increase in postal rates. The Gov- ernment ought at all times to handle mail at the minimum cost to the sender, without struggling to convert the Post- office Department into a self-paying in- stitution. —_—_ BABIES AND SCHOOLS. Decrease in the birth rate operates to bring school enrollment and_ school equipment to an equilibrium. As rising enrollment is accompanied by a rise in expenses the expansion of the school sys- tem means just that much more draft upon public funds for education. In this connection it should be borne in mind that, like all other businesses, the educa- tional plant advances by units. An in- crease in the number of scholars beyond what the existing school buildings and associated plant can provide for necessi- tates acquiring another building and an- other teaching force and installation of equipment. It may be a matter of years before the enrollment in the new school grows to capacity and the unit cost is compensated for by maximum service. The Bureau of Education sees inthe general field a tendency for school cost and enrollment to reach an equilibrium. The birth rate, which in 1915 was 25.1 per 1,000 in the school registration area, had dropped in 1926 to 20.6 per 1,000. The reduction probably would hold good all over the country. Children are receiving more years of schooling than formerly, buildings are costlier, and playground and other fea- tures increase the cost. While the fig- | ures for the District of Columbia do not appear as a separate item, it isnot neces- sary to have evidence other than the known facts, that nowhere else in the country is the provision for education upon a pro rata basis less adequate than in the National: Capital. If there is a decreasing birth rate here it is more than offset by decreasing infant mortal- ity and by the influx of new residents. In the matter of school facilities no other American city is treated in such niggardly fashion by its local government as Washington is treated by its local government—the Congress. MERCHANT MARINE RESERVES. Sometime this month Secretary Wilbur will have before him the plans drafted by the board which was authorized to examine candidates for the new mer- chant marine reserve. Thus will be created a nucleus of an active reserve as auxiliary to the regular naval personnel in times of war need. With over 3,000 applications for enlistment the board estimates that probably 2,000 or more of these will form the first organization. Examination of the credentials and records of applicants for commissions in the new service has been made with care. and the personnel will be of a high grade. There would appear to be a measure of special distinction for those who enter a service from which may be expected to rise men of distinguished ability. ’ Here is a practical coordination of the idea of the merchant marine aS a@ war reserve with a personnel competent to fight the ships in case of need. As a measure of preparedness the procedure, without impairing in any particular the pacific nature of the merchant marine, gives to it the potentialities of war service that attach to the merchant ships of other powers. The voluntary nature of the service adds zest to the attainment of a position in it, and par- ticularly a commission. It is to be hoped that this enlistment of young men of the marine reserve will stimulate popular interest in the mer- chant marine and lead Congress to take the most enlightened stand for its de- velopment as an auxiliary of the Navy. «CANCER AND WEIGHT. That there is some relationship be- tween obesity and cancer is shown by the insurance tables. These disclose that persons from 5 to 15 per cent in excess of normal tabular standards of weight have a 9 per cent increased cancer death rate, those 15 to 25 per cent overweight show 24 per cent death rate over the rate for persons of normal or standard weight. Overweight of 25 per cent or more carries with it as a penalty a 29 per cent excess in cancer deaths. _ From the layman’s angle it would ap- pear as if the deterioration of tissue that is involved in overweight has something to do with the occurrence of the disease. It would be interesting to have statistics ¢ saneeos Seer. SaTaeneace ener a a drawn from the mountain regions, where the inhabitants are for the most. part lean and wiry, with little overweight. From the physician’s point of view the condition demands exact and repeated observation of precancer and cancer cases in respect to the condition of the blood, hydrate tolerance. From this flows & list of medical inquiries dealing with the relation of overweight and _ cancer. Among persons 15 to 50 per cent under- weight there occur but 95 cancer deaths to a thousand, while among the class that is 25 per cent overweight the num- ber of cancer deaths per thousand is as high as 143. Just why this is so re- mains a mystery. RHYTHMIC MAN. way for the maintenance of human equanimity by pointing out that the rhythms which underlie all nature and the universe may also find duplication in the human cosmos, so to speak. The world of man, the individual, is subject to the fluctuations that have been in ac- tion since the dawn of creation. As the one being terrestrial who registers the variety of moods of the universe and seeks to translate them into human ex- perience, man alone is in a state of seem- ing chaos. This is all resolved into the observa- tion of Shakespeare: “The earth hath bubbles, as the water hath.” Put in terms of an American scientist, the earth ex- periences pulsations in climate which are traceable to etheric motions, and these, in mass, find their chief phases as elec- tricity and gravity. In'the minute forms of energy of which all the material masses are but expositions, is to be sought the source of the rhythms which are observed in periodic recurrence, as that of the coming of locust hordes, the music of waterfalls, and the periodicity eof deposition of rock at the ocean’s bot- tom. Without such things; and the movements of the planets, man could have no idea of time in the abstract, and time is but the mental attitude that one has toward the facts of recurrence, whether in interval of a fraction of a second or of aeons. Thus the English savant gives point to and proves the observation of Solomon old one, under the newer guise of the hypothesis of electrons as the source of universal energy. agreeable to human sentiment to be order in man’s environment and himself, and flows through him, * a succession of the seasons, the tides, the the eternal rhythm of the universe bb 5 with a view to determining the carbo, An English scientist has prepared the | t ; | oe tae Ts aa 3 >. & “SB eS vx & At any rate, it is — = AS sured that, despite evidences of wide dis- Se \ “sl a that the thing that is hath been afore- — time, and that there is no new thing un- — der the sun.

For this reason the stranger in| Washington might be somewhat sur- prised in reading the lists of chairmen of various clubs to find the same women holding the same tvpe of posi- tion in more than one club. This has few disddvantages and provides an expert in dealing with these issues in the several clubs. Who, for instance, would be a better chairman of a suffrage committee for District suffrage than a woman who for year after year led delegations to the National Congress to plead for woman suffrage. Multiple Memberships. If she belongs to more than one| ciub, and there are women in Wash- | ington who boast of membership in as Many as thirty or forty organizations, why should not each one that claims her as a member have the advantage of her advice and experience? It is a noteworthy fact that very Often these women are simply “on a committee” while some other woman is chairman, es the work means more to the earnest worker than the mere honors. While the local women, both those who are strictly citizens of Washington and those who are voting citizens in Other States and affiliated with Dis- trict affairs in civic and club circles, are putting their hands to the plow to put either one or the other of the political parties in power next Novem- ber, they are also keeping in mind the | legislative program important to the | District and for which they will work | when the elections are over, no mat- | ter who presides in the White House and over the Senate.

Besides this club and other clubs of women have put themselves on record in support of adequate construction and operation of municipal bathing beaches. They are also of one mind in their desire to secure adequate appro- priation for tree planting and conser- vation in the National Capital. Most of the clubs are also working whole-heartedly for District suffrage. They are ceaseless in their efforts to enlist the women of other States in their campaign to secure support for District franchise.

Many veterans have successfuly pass- ed the civil service examinations and confidently expect to be appointed to civil service positions, for which they are qualified, without delay. Under the system as at present existing, how- ever, they are, in most cases, doomed to be disillusioned. When the chief of a Government bu- reau has a vacancy for a clerk, he re- quests the Civil Service Commission to certify a person possessing certain qualifications. The commission, in ac- cordance with the law, certifies the mames of the three persons standing highest on the register, and the bu- reau chief makes a selection from these three. After this person is appointed the other two persons certified at the game time are returned to the Com- mission’s eligible list, to awaft another call. Under the law, a person may be certified and passed over or he may decline appointment three times be- fore his name may be dropped from the eligible register. Now, to illustrate how the law may be, and often is, defeated, let us sup- a case in which the three names at the top of the eligible list are, re- spectively, a disabled veteran, a young high schoo] graduate and a clerk with previous experience. The bureau chief selects the high-school graduate, and the other two names are returned to the eligible register. On the next request for certification, the commission will certify the veteran, the experienced clerk, and another clerk. The choice will this time fall upon the experienced clerk, and the ‘Veteran again is returned to the eligible list. This may occur time after time, and while the veteran may be at the top of the list, he may be eliminated through being passed over three times. It follows that a dis- abled veteran may stand little chance of appointment, since a bureau chief, in exercising the discretion, permitted him under the law, may without in- curring criticism, select the one he one for whom he may have a personal _ preference, or for whom some other person of influence may express a _ preference.

Commissioner Deming says that new laws should be enacted. His point is well taken, provided the new laws will properly sustain the Civil Service Com- mission in placing ex-servicemen in a preferred position, and are so drawn as to preclude the possibility of eva- sion.

HAMILTON. Alexandria, August 3. Attitude of Colored Voters. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: I itive just concluded reading Mr. Bar- geron's article in which he outlines the plan of campaign to be conducted among the colored voters of the coun- try by the political management of the Republican party. I have this to say, that if the Republican leaders between campaigns would give one-tenth as much attention to the colored vote as they so ostentatiously exhibit upon the eve of the greatest political struggle since 1896, their sincerity and good faith might not be questioned. There are 15,000,000 colored people within the United States, nearly three times as many people as compose the present Austrian nation since its dis- memberment. They are contributing their share in the productive power of the United States, and yet the Repub- lican leaders have so manipulated the political situation that they have “jockeyed” every colored man in the Nation out of individual political power. There isn’t a single one left with anything like the power formerly exerted by Frederick Douglass, B. K Bruce and Booker T, Washington. A Republican Senate refused to con- firm Walter Cohen, of Loutsiana, and had it not been for Robert M, La Fol- lette, the Progressive, and David I. Walsh, Democratic senator of Massa- chusetts, Mr. Cohen’s name would have been rejected for the third time. Senator Walsh got on a train and traveled 500 miles to reach the Senate in time to put over Mr, Cohen’s con- firmation, while Republican senators stood by and cynically voted against him. Mr. Cohen is the last colored Re- publican in the South holding a dis- tinguished political appointment. I wish furthermore to say that former Chief Justice White, of the Supreme Court of the United States, himself a Southern Democrat, gave colored Amer- ica its first Judicial victories before that tribunal. From the Dred Scott case to the appointment of Mr. Justice White, all of our cases were lost before that tribunal, and we did not begin to get favorable decisions until this t jurist appeared in the seat of judiciat| power. I intend to support in this campaign brilliant gubernatorial officer When New Kellogg Treaties for Renunciation of War Are Put Into Effect, Believing Canccella- tion of War Debts Ultimate Aim of Foreign Statesmen, To the Editor of The Post-—Sir: “Will you walk into my parlor?” sald a spider to a fly; “"Tis the prettiest little parlor ever you did spy.” If Uncle Sam don't watch his step this is fust where he is going to find himself—in the European parlor, with no way of escape. The European statesmen and diplo- matists, aided and abetted by the in- ternational bankers, have been obsessed with but two ideas ever since the World War, viz: Getting the United States into the League of Nations, and unloading upon the American people the whole financial costs of the war. They have pursued these purposes in season and out of season, and with a persistence, patience and cunning that excite wonder and admiration. At times their efforts have been crude and above board, but more often they have taken the form of subtle propaganda directed with the greatest finesse, in which they have been aided by many of our people, and sometimes even by the blundering of our officials. Our officials, inspired either by domes- tic politics, or their own vanity to make reputations in international af- fairs, are continually doing something or proposing something that if realized will get us just into the position the Europeans want us in. Now take the so-called Kellogg treaty to renounce war. The thing on its face seems innocent and harmless enough; but be assured that, when once adopted, propaganda will be started to devise some means to make it effective, that is, to make it some- thing more than a mere negative decla- ration. In fact this has already been suggested. That wily old fox, Lord Cecil, in his eagerness at the great op- portunity he foresees, forgot his usual caution and finesse, and just the other day suggested that when this treaty became effective some means would have to be adopted so that the World Court might interpret it, and pass upon the questions that are sure to arise under it. This sounds logical enough, for many questions must necessarily arise out of this treaty, and some means must be devised for interpreting its scope and meaning, and settling any differences that are sure to arise among the signa- tories, if the thing is to have any value whatever and operate as a soothing syrup among the nations instead of un irritant. What more natural than that such questions be submitted to the already existing and experienced world court? Theref reality is part and parcel of th saiona ita The St ng emt ge ots y | J | Since the conference held at Asheville by the anti-Smith Democrats there have appeared statements that the leaders of the anti-Smith Democrats expected the movement to be financed by the Republican national commit- tee; indeed, that Bishop Cannon ex- pressed a willingness to accept cam- paign contributions from the Repub- sican national committee to help out that | the cause. Although probably not intentionally so, these statements are _ incorrect. They doubtless originated from a re- mark which I made, quite incidentally, in a conversation with Mr. J. F. Essary, correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, while I was standing at the cashier’s window paying my hotel bill at Ashe- ville, Mr. Essary asked if the headquarters committee which had been appointed would be willing to receive contribu- tions from Republicans, I replied: “I have not considered that, but [ certainly do not expect to investigate every contribution which is made, whether it is made by a Republican or a Democrat.” Even in the old days I willingly re- ceived contributions from conscience- stricken saloonkeepers who wished to aid families which had been ruined by their saloons. The conference adopted no policy regarding acceptance of money from Republicans, and I know of no reason why contribu- tioas should not be accepted from any source without putting them under the microscope to determine whether they were from Republicans or Democrats. They will be used to preserve Southern Democracy by the defeat of the “wet” Tammany Gov. Smith, I did not at any time refer to the Republican national committee, nor did I understand Mr, Essary’s question to refer to that committee, but to in- dividual Republicans. He may have understood me to include the ee lican’ national committee, but I did not so understand his question, and in my reply I had in mind contributions from individual Republicans.

The only possible way we can get into this court is either by the front or the back door of the league; and the results and disastrous consequences to us will be the same which ever way we énter, for the cards are al] stacked against us. This is the parlor into which we are being so ingratiatingly coaxed, and in which we will find our- selves in no time after adoption of the Kellogg treaty, or subject ourselves, ‘f we stay out, to the execfations of Europe, and charges of bad faith, and being unworthy of being dealt with in international relations.

Braille at last found a man on one of the street corners of France, but the beg- gar refused to listen until he was told that he would be paid the same amount that he could beg a day on the corner. Braille took the blind man to his home and commenced his expert- ment, Braille invented a -ystem of reading and writing by means of raised dots. raised dots on heavy manila paper. Al! of the letters of the alphabet are made by the means of six dots. The dots are numbered from one to six. B is made by punching dots 1 and 3; c by punching dots 1 and 2, and soon. This system is now used in all the schools throughout the country. It ls known as the revised Braille. After Braille’s success in France other countries began to take up the work for thetr sightless inhabitants, At this time six periodicals are pub- lished in Braille monthly. We also have one weekly news and one weekly review that are published in Braille There is one large printing house for the blind at Louisville, known as the American Printing House for the Blind, where most of the textbooks are printed for the various schools in the United States. Men and women today are receiving an education up to par with their see- ing friends. This may not seem possi- ble to many, but the public is cor- dially invited to visit the various sck ls throughout the country where the sightless are educated—-I mean edu- ied, not kept for life, Many people make the mistake of calling these schools “asylums,” but they little know how this word makes one feel who can not see. No one can fully. understand this feeling unless he had some experl- ence in this line. A person without sight scorns pity; he can not bear to hear people making r.marks of sympathy about him. I speak from experience, To be sure, a person without sight will willingly ac- cept help when crossing the street or when there is something that requires sight; but he does not care to have any one bring up, just at that time, th2 cause of his misfortune. Some people, in. order to be helpful, go to extremes. If one without sight claims he is capable of doing something and others doubt his word and will not give him a chance to prove it, it is most unkind and discouraging. Braille saw that a person without sight could be taught to do many things. He gave his pupil the oppor- tunity and helped him to prove that he was not altogether helpless, All we need isa chance.

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, ‘AUGUST 5, 1928. By VYLLA POE WILSON. UGUST days bring with them ad- vance hints of September schoo! openings. The mother with sons and daughters in prep school or col- lege necessarily must: devote some of her summer hours to planning autumn Wardrobes for her young peopie. To @ulde her selections, the Washington shops present ample lines for this pur- pose. The buyers and Officials of the Stores have been puzzling over her prob- Jem since school closed last spring, and the fashion centers of the world have been ransacked for ideas that might assist the mothers of the Capital at this important task. The wise mother will let. the rule of | simplicity prevail in school wardrobes | @S she does in her own. Elaborate clothes for children not only are in| bad taste, but at many schools they are not permitted. Something eumptuary dressings in the form of Bchool uniforms and dresses enables the children to preserve an attractive | yet not be hampered | appearance and in work and ia b clothes. said 4 inappropriate The ensemble suit has solved many | Bchoolgiri problems, for such clothing | is suitable for the schoolroom or for the afternoon musicale and lecture Which have become an integral of the curriculum of many institutions, especially in Washington, where part of a student's education is attendance on the various official re- ceptions and other gatherings of a winter season in the National Capital. | Leather Coats Popular. Naturally, coats are a major part of | the school wardrobe, and the offerinys along this line for the autumn are most attractive and adequate. The leather coat appears to be holding its own. and has even become more popular last year. The coat is available both boys and girls, and often Subdeb wears a hat of the same terial and color stunning leather jacket. Rain and snowy weather must also be anticipated and the vogue of the gay raincoat will be with us, academi- cally speaking, once more next fall. Some of the new raincoats for the young people have departed from the loose effect and have become more Swagger in make-up, some of them even being cut on the lines of a British officer’s trench coat. These coats are - both sturdy and smart. ' Por the tiny tots in their first kin- dergarten days the presiding genius of Sartoria has provided dainty novelties and Outfits, quaint in outline and serv- iceable In intent and in wearing quali- tiles. Smocking and embroidered de- Signs are still in the mode for the small daughters of Washington houses and than for ma- almost a whole zoo could be assembled | from the embellishments on the little | girls’ dresses in some of our kinder- garten classes.

Vantage in this regard over her sisters who can not, for she can fashion many | trifles for herself which will bear the | “m4 j yer earmarks of the latest mode and \ not be a burden upon the family purse Take, for instance, one of the scarf fads from Paris. It can be made picoted all around. piece of plain dark crepe de chine meas- uring about fifteen by fifteen inches is set into the V point by machine hem- | stitching and there is the scarf, spick | eee Span and ready to be worn. smart way to wear it Is the dark corner in the back and the akin to! part | educational] the | scheme to match her | ' by | taking a square yard of gayly flowered crepe de chine, and having the edges | A diamond-shaped | , | Phe | to throw it | nonchalantly over one shoulder or with | ends knotted loosely twice to hold it in | place. Tweeds Still in Favor. Lest the men of Washington scan this page without profit, it might be men- tioned in passing that summer the men of Piccadilly on their in London this | morning promenades are wearing tweed | trousers with black morning it is easy to surmise. However, there is the clothes hint*for the benefit of any | young clubman devoted to the ultra in masculine fashioas. Womankind has turned to the short | tweed skirt and light jersey for early morning golf if we can trust the fash- jon letters which come from abroad and from the playgrounds of American society in this country. Most of the tweeds are from the British Isles, many of them loosely hand woven or roughly dry, but always ade for all weathers and all vigorous activities. I have seen samples of new English tweeds which possess little and medium-sized bright- ly colored checks, with red or brown predominating. It is interesting to ncte that the Jjer- seys for golfing often are of three- quarter length and generally quite gay in pattern. The sleeveless dress is very much the vogue at American wertering resorts, es- pecially since tne wave of hot weather set in which has destroyed the predic- tions of certain disma! prophets that 1928 would be distinguished by sum- mer never arriving tc bless the sons of man. Of course, when the sleeve is discarded that means sunburn and tan in abundance, proving that man. or woman can never be happy in this mortal vale of tears. Still, with a little study of nature’s scheme which has been stated to be that on tennis court or sun beach the color of the skin, the reflections of the sky and the tones of one’s clothes should harmonize, stich disadvantages as sunburn can be counterbalanced. rs.

ALBION LIVES IN HISTORY BY ROBINSON ENGLAND—A History of British Prog- ress from the Early Ages to the Present Day. By Cyril E. Robinson. (Thomas Y. Crowell Co., New York.) This American one-volume edition of Cyril E. Robinson's history of England is without doubt a handy book of ref- erence that many may find useful. It contains a clear presentation of the progress of the English nation, The author selected major historical facts, with just enough detail, maps and diagrams to make his work compre- hensive and interesting. The portraits of historical personalities, and the illustrations of English life embellish & narrative of events from the Early and Middle Ages to the present time. Starting with the Roman conquest in part I, the story is carried through to the fifteenth century, the important happenings being set forth concisely , and thoroughly. Part II handles the Tudors and the Stuarts, 1485-1688. Had Mr. Robinson devoted as much time to his research work which covers the period of the Reformation as he has to the periods following, one would not find so biased and prejudiced an account. Part III—William III to Waterloo, 1689-1815. The loss of the American Colonies, and England’s treatment of her colonies in general is a fair exposi- tion of facts. Perhaps it is too much to expect any Englishman to give an unbiased account of conditions in India. Part IV—The nineteenth century and after, 1815-1927. Part V—Summaries and chronological tables. The summary to each chapter is a great help to the student of his- tory in memorizing important facts; the tabulated form of these tables is an aid to rapid review. Part VI gives the “Machinery of the British Constitution,” supplemented by ie THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, AUGUST 5, 1928.

A concise list of the prime ministers of England and a comprehensive index makes this a well worth-while reference book on certain subjects for the stu- dent, as well as the general reader. The author has created an interest in English history, and in such a novel way that the events are clear and not easily forgotten. The discussions are in the most part explicit and give a solid foundation in the understanding of the great issues. Cc. V. 8. Latest Books T ersely Reviewed THE PATRIOT. Walter. York.) The aftermath of the war and the retribution which came to the profes- Sional patriot who sold his country and eventually his life secretly during the World War is cleverly interwoven in this mystery story. Who killed Mornington, man of wealth and affairs, was the concern of Scotland Yard and the London police, led by Commissioner Ewart, who served valiantly during the war. This makes up the exciting theme of the story. First one r2rson and then another is suspected. But it takes the Scotland Yard commissioner to really solve the mystery, rot alone tw. ough regular service channels, but through the use of psychology, which goes back to the trench days of the war. There were, of course, m.ny false trails folloved down until the proper one was found. The authorities even went so far as to try the man who was interested in the woman with Morning- ton when he was murdered. But the murderer was a revenging wraith who also disposed o. a general and then a cottonwaste manufacturer through whom Mornington had be- trayed his country in a manner which brought many of his countrymen to their deaths. The wraith escaped after being warned by a woman whose hus- band had gone down in the Loch Lo- mond when it was submarined by the me oe Y. (E. P. Dutton & Co., New Germans on information received from | Mornington. WASTELAND. griff. Los Angeles.) This is a romance of the big trees. It is imbued with the spell of the North woods, whose spell, as the author points out, once it has gained dominion will occur again and again and draw you back to its fastnessas. The book is dedicated to the author’s mother, a woman who has lived always close to nature and to the trees and th great out of doors. She is a woman, he declares, who has found her happi- ness in the communion with the priml- tive and who has learned a lesson from the growing things of nature. The population of the North woods are as real in type as the people of the Southern mountains. They are more progressive, however, and hew their way onward and upward as straight and powerful as those of their glittering axes when they fell the mighty giants of the forest. To those interested in conservation and to the nature lover this book will mean more than a mere romance—it will give hints of ways and means in which to bring about a sane utiliza- tion of natural resources. The pull of the great out of doors, the groves which were God's first tem- ples are most graphically described in this baok. No doubt it will find a large audience among those who have visited the forests and who have gazed upon the mysteries and wonders of na- ture with which this author is so en- thralled. JUNIOR STARKE, POUNDMAN. By Linwood L. Righter. (Doubleday Doran & Co., New York.) In this story of the New Jersey coast the center of interest is occupied by the lives and activities of Little Tuck, Capt. Jan and Capt. Eric and their loyal, hardy crews, who wrest their daily substance from the teeming seas. So picturesque are these characters that they might easily have been taken out of a Norse saga. However, they are twentieth century folk and most mod- ern in some of their reactions, even to using worn-out Lizzies as methods of transportation. Dr. Starke’s concern for the men of the Sea View Fishery, a fish pound near the Starke summer home, had en- dured for years. In return, when the son of the Starke household did rot recover from the shock of a football injury, the fishermen uncertook his cure. The lad was initiated into the dan- _.gerous game which callé for constant courage and resourcefulness. Storms and underhand competition, encounters with the dread sting ray, the daily runs to the pockets aud nets and the thrills contained in racing back with a well-filled boat to score a “beat” on | the other crews, provided the Starke jad with adventure as zestful as the tang of the sea air, This is a good pook for any age from 13 to 60. e.

By Eleanor Scott. (Little, Brown & Co., Boston.) There is a pathos but a realism about this story of a superannuated, ineffi- cient teacher’s struggle to maintain her foothold in the school room. The ef- fect of her Inefficiency on the other teachers and their progress in life ‘s handled in a purely modern way, dem- onstrating the essential elements in this busy world of the survival of the| fittest. This is life in the barest sense, the struggle of each individua: to hold on, it is true, turn aside to help others who find it harder to go on. While the action is for the most part concentrated between the four walls of a school house, yet the viewpoint is that of the community and the world. The leaven of human kindness and the meannesses of human nature are drawn by this writer with a graphic pen, JOHN READ, AMERICAN, IDEALISTIC JOHN READ, AMERICAN. By Edwin C. Washburn. New York: Grafton Press. In these days of political discussion the late novel of Edwin Washburn has an added interest. Interwoven with the portrayal of the sterling American character, John Read, is the historical background of the story, where the ac- tion centers about the famous Chicago convention that nominated Abraham Lincoln. The detailed and tautological ac- count of the situation of that period is a subject hardly calculated to inter- est the novel-reading many. However, the author by means of this appeal to the human element has suceeded, and gives us a better understanding of the North toward the siavery question. In a panoramic view of that time preceding the Civil War he unfolds the simplicity of the rural life “down in Maine,” and the puritanical home where are born men with a rich sub- stratum of moral values. In contrast tc the Rabelaisian indecency which characterizes current literature, is the thread of unalloyed romance. In this delineation of the hero, American youth may find an idealistic leader, yet one not beyond the realm of the elastically and divertingly human. The student of history will find in its pages valuable information, but there is little that is stylistically ad- mirable in the novel. M. C NEW HISTORY IN FIVE UNITS BARES EUROPE A NOTEBOOK OF EUROPEAN HIS- ' TORY, 1400-1920. By 8S. H. McGrady. (Thomas Y. Crowell Co., New York.) Is it possible to divide European his- tory from 1400 to 1920 into five com- prehensive units? S. H! McGrady has done this with amazing success in his little volume, “A Notebook of European History, 1400-1920.” The five units are: I. The Age of Medieval Decay (In- troduction). II. The Age of the (1453-1648). III. The Age of the Benevolent Despot (1648-1789). IV. The Age of the French Revolu- tion (1789-1815). 3 V. The Age of the Industrial Revolu- tion (1815-1920). All of this is included in 198 pages of large, clear type, giving 60 more pages for charts, index and blank pages tor notes. : The arrangement of the matter is most satisfactory, Brief paragraphs with the dates well in evidence, state the important facts with the leading word in bold type, thus at once ar- resting the eye and ressing the mind. There is no comment nor dils- cussion, nothing superfluous, but nothing of note is omitted from the decline of feudalism to the results of the World War as far ag the establish- ment of the League of Nations. Throughout the book an excellent top- ical outline is followed, and we find the “Line of Time” a fascinating as — as illuminating addition to the xt. | Both teachers and students will find this notebook an indispensable requi- site in the study of European history, Renaissance by Mary G.

Schumann- Heink (little Ernestine Roessler, then) spent her first $6, earned by singing the alto part in the Ninth Symphony of Beethoven, with Maria Wilt. The $2 which she kept for herself she finally spent on white curtains for the house, the first the Roesslers had ever had, instead of the shoes which she so badly needed. Mary Lawton’s book, “Schumann- Heink: The Last of the Titans,” is full of amusing and touching things like this. We follow Mme. Schumann-Heink through her childhood in Graz, where she studied music with any one who would teach her; to Dresden, where she had her first contract with the Dresden Royal Opera; to Hamburg, where she struggled along with little money and several children to care for—deserted by her first husband, Heink—till we reach the fascinating period when she and Schumann came to America and she met with instant success. The book is a most entertaining pre- sentation in narrative form of a mar- velous life, full of struggle and priva- tions, but rich in genius, ambition, hu- mor and kindliness. “Schumann-Heink” will be published early in the fall by Macmillan. Humor bubbles over the edge of every one of William Allen White’s new character sketches of Presidents and other politiclans he has known. He draws a dozen very animated por- traits in “Masks in a Pageant,” and beneath the humor there is a broad knowledge of men and events. “Cleveland,” he says, “could nev-r dramatize his convictions so that a man would find himself a hero in fol- lowing Cleveland. That was Roose- velt’s trick.” Taft, “placid, easy-going, physically unemotional and mentally rolypoly, must have lived in torture during his four years in the White House.” “Croker was a savage with a child’s mind. Taciturn, grim, uninterested, furtively concealing his ignorance in stolidity, he viewed the panorama of history like an Indian at the show.” As for Bryan, “no ore could ques- tion his honesty, nor his sincerity, nor the fine vision in his heart.

William Byrd, of whom Commander Byrd is a direct lin- eal descendant, will probably look be- nignly down from Heaven while his book is re-issued by Macy-Masius in their series, “An American Bookshelf.” William Byrd was one of the earliest ot the Virginians, as well as one of the earliest of the Byrds. In 1732 he was selected as one of a group of the most prominent Virginians to survey the boundary line between Virginia and Carolina. When he got back, he wrote a paper called “A History of the Divid- ing Line.” But he was so greatly im- pressed by the beauty of the country where he had been that he wrote later another paper calld “A Journey to the Land of Eden,” and still later a third called “A Progress to the Mines.” Now these papers are gathered under the title, “A Journey to the Land of Eden,” and issued as the fourth volume in the series, “An American Bookshelf.” This series is edited by Mark Van Doren and aims to recapture for the modern read- er a group of unavailable but interest- ing books. The writings of William Byrd are generally classed as some of the most interesting as well as most valuable among early American writ- ings. Angelo Patri says of “The New Leav- en, Progressive Education and Its Ef- fect Upon the Child and Society,” hy Stanwood Cobb (John Day): “A fine presentation of the idea that the true education of a child is the freeing of his body and mind of ignorance through profitable and happy experi- ences, the substitution of the Doing School for the old Sit-and-Listen School.

HISTORY OF ALEXANDRIA. RELIC OF THE IMPARTS A REVOLUTION, NCIENT CHARM | Alexandria, the “big town” of George Washington's day, is one of the living links of 1928 with the American Revo- lution. Therefore, such a monumental publication as that of the “History of Old Alexandria, Virginia,” by Mary G. Powell (The William Byrd Press, Inc., Richmond, Va), in a limited edition of 1,000 copies, is a literary event of great we acinar to Washington, its neigh- or.

Modernity has not yet succeeded in marring its quaint beauty or replacing the colonial names of its strees with those more up to date, but certainly less picturesque. In her story Mrs. Powell takes up first on the King’s highway which led past the present Alexandria in the days when the American Revolution was still un- dreamed of by even the most daring of spirits. The early settlers of what is now Al- exandria had seen stirring sights on the King’s highway. Thither had rid- den Gen.

Shipbutld- ing and shipping were among its im- portant industries and the primitive wharves were busy places. In 1760 a town house was erected at the south- west corner of Fairfax and Cameron streets. Its ground floor housed the Alexandria school and on the upper floor the Presbyterians held their Sun- day meetings and the trustees their monthly meetings. “Any assembly of public interest also took place there,” Mrs. Powell reminds us. The market square was another center of town interest. There were held po- litical meetings, sales and fairs,eand it was a rendezvous for friends. During whe border warfare Maj. Washington, in charge of the Virginia Rangers, frequently drilled his men upon the market space. At one time, when election for members of the Vir- ginia House of. Burgesses from Fairfax was going on, Mrs. Powell relates, George Washington supported one can- didate, Fairfax, and a certain young William Payne, another candidate, Ell- zey by name. “As they stood near the courthouse high words passed between them,” writes the author, “and Payne, who was very quick tempered, suddenly struck Washington a blow which felled him to the ground. The troops quar- tered in the jail, hearing the noise, rushed out, and there seemed every prospect of a fight, but Washington soon convinced them that any inter- ference was unnecess*ry. It was a time when duels were frequently the result of such encounters, and people looked forward anxiously. But the noble spirit of the young soldier asserted itself. He felt his responsibility in the matter and forthwith retired to his lodgings and sent for Payne, to whom he made what he considered the proper ac- knowledgment of his fault,” Mrs. Powell robs this statement of some of its force by giving as her au- thority the noted Parson Weems, whose anecdotes of Washington’s early life can not always pass the acid test in the matter of accuracy. Historic Fire Engines. Mrs. Powell devotes an interesting chapter to the historic fire engines of Alexandria, some of which are still in existence and greatly prized by the citizens of the town. In 1774 the Friendship Fire Co, was formed. George Washington was an honorary member of it up to the time of his death, and once presented it with a fire engine. The ancient company is still main- tained by patriotic Alexandrians. Later another fire company was formed and there was great rivalry between them as to which company should first reach the scene of fires. The fire companies always took a prominent part in all the ceremonies and celebrations of the town. Two great fires are remembered in the history of the town, the fire in: November, 1810, and the other on Oc- tober 26, 1824. @ each of these fires more than 50 houses were burned. Mrs. Powell has included many anec- dotes and traditions of Alexandria in her book. In her chapter on “The Churches of Alexandria,” she first dis- cusses Christ Church, haps ite most one of the most notable churches in | In : this country. It dates back to 1773. the record it is set down that James Wren was paid $40 for “writing the Lord’s Prayer, Ten Commandments and Creed” for Christ Church's walls on pan- els which may be seen today in a fine | state of preservation on each side of the pulpit. It is a thrilling thing to re- member that George Washington’s eyes from his pew in the church must have often rested on these sacred inscriptions. The pulpit was occupied through the) generations by many noted clergymen, and before the church, Mrs. Powell declares, ‘‘ministers of other denominations occasionally oc- cupied the pulpit.” One of its rectors was the Rev. William Meade, afterwards | Bishop Meade, and the author of several well-known books. In the churchyard many of the pa- | rishioners of the old church were buried and their tombstones with their pon- derous inscriptions and epitaphs may be seen there today. Here was buried Mrs. Ann Warren, the actress, who died at Alexandria in 1808. “Hers was one of the last interments in Christ Church- the | he | It was put up to that good | use by a band of thrifty Scotsmen who | the | ;ence the Fitzhughs. | School followed fast upon the heels of | lof re- | ‘5 | peatedly tried AleX= | i cession | paragraphs | marks yard,” explains Mrs. Powell, “and the inscription on the monument records | stage.’ Churches and Taverns.

International music,stars in eight evening concerts at popular prices are announced for the coming season, be- ginning October 25, under the direc- tion of the Washington Cooperative Artist Concert Course. The events will all take place in the Washington Audl- torium. CONTRALTO STAR SUFFERED BEFORE REACHING TOP RUNG HERE is probably no singer be- fh fore the American public at the present time who is more truly international by birth and assoication and whose personal experience can match the stark tiagedy that has stalked through the life of Sigrid One- gin, the world-famous contralto whom Mrs. Wilson-Greene will present in concert at Poli’s as one of the attrac- tions of the Artists’ Course during the coming season of 1928-29. Onegin’s father was a French citizen of German extraction who was born at sea enroute to India. He served in the French army in the war against China and later as a member of the French embassy to Sweden. Onegin’s mother was born in the Rhineland, of Hugenot extraction Onegin herself was born in Sweden, where she lived as a small child, later going to Paris with her parents where she studied at the Con- vent.of the Sacre Coeur, learning, while still a child, to speak fluently three languages—French, German and Swed- ish. Business reverses caused her father to go to Germany where he had rela- tives and where he ‘found an oppor- tunity to engage in a commercial en- terprise. The family was in dire cir- cumstances, however, when young Sig- rid took up the study of music at 14, and in order to obtain money for her lessons, the future contralto star be- came a stenographer, typing by day and studying by night, for two years and a half. Her studies were taken from a young Russian, Boris Onegin, who was a distinguished musician and readily sensed the great talent of his pupil. So impressed was Onegin with the girl’s voice that he abandoned his general teaching. became her accom- panist as well as her teacher and event- ually married her. At the outbreak of the great war, when Sigrid was on the threshold of her career, studying for a debut in opera ani mastering a vast repertoire of songs, fate tested her with a suc- cession of tragic episodes. Her parents died, her two brothers were conscript- ed and both were soon after killed while Onegin’s husband was made pris- oner and died from the effects of his incarceratior Beset by such experiences, a lesser artist would have given up the strug- gle, perhaps, but shortly after the » ne saat aa be a “4 eee to sR en ae death of her husband Onegin appeared for her opera debut at Stuttgart, scor- ing a sensational success in “Carmen” that quickly led to another appearance in “Carmen,” this time opposite En- rico Caruso. Caruso did not know “Carmen” in German so rather than lose the opportunity to sing with him Mme. Onegin learned it in French in one day’s tfme. Last spring Mme. Onegin was solo- ist in great Schubert festivals at Bonn and Koln, in Germany, and she also sang at the 100th anniversary per- formance of the Hamburg Philhar- monic Orchestra, conducted by Dr. Karl Muck, former conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. At this latter performance Onegin was joint soloist with Fritz Kreisler, the violinist, who, like Onegin, is announced as one of the attractions of Mrs. Wilson-Greene’s artists’ course of concerts, which will include concert appearances of Roland . Hayes, the colored tenor; the Boston Symphony Orchestra, and Rachmanit- noff, famous Russian pianist and com. poser. EDWARD F.

BELL T will come as a shock to many of the faithful to learn that the pic- ture business is al] a fake. This, however, appears to be indisput- ably established by Dr. Edwin B. im this city. Dr. Slosson points out that while the human eye is a marvelous mechanism, it is inclined to be a little slow and clumsy. It is because of the clumsiness of the optical apparatus which is ours by birth that the printer and the motion picture producer are able to delude us into thinking we see something that really isn’t there—a condition, after all, that is wholly in consonance with the effects of the weird distillations being consumed by those who haven’t yet heard about Prohibition. But that is apart from the discussion. The point is that in looking at an illustration in a book or paper we think we see smooth gradations of shade from dark to light. But when we look at it through the micro- scope that we all carry to help in our reading, we discover that we have been tricked an@ that there are no halftones at all in this “half- tone picture.” It is composed exclusively of black and white dots—and that’s a bad sign, too. So, also, there are nd moving pictures in the ‘“‘moving pictures.” What we see, according to the learned doctor, is a swift succession of still pic- tures, each slightly different from those preceding, from which we false- ly and mistakenly infer that we are viewing movement. This is all divulged in an expert analysis of the Eastman Kodak Co.’s new process of color photography which was revealed to the world last week and accepted as one of the most miraculous developments of an era prolific in contributions to scientific knowledge and accomplish- ment, tion, is so revolutionary as to place it alongside the discovery of film and the invention of motion pictures, and so far-reaching in potentiality as to link it with the synchronized sound devices as one of the most potent elements in the future perfection of screen entertainment. * . . . Slosson, editor of Science Service OTION pictures in full natural colors were shown for the first time last Monday by George Eastman to a distinguished group of scientists and notable guests. Among those who witnessed the first demonstration of the long-sought secret of recording color on celluloid were Thomas A. Edison, Dr. G. K. Burgess, director of the United States Bureau of Standards; Hiram Percy Maxim, inventor and president of the Amateur Cinema League; Gen. John J. Pershing, Adolph S. Ochs, publisher of the New York Times; Maj. Gen, James G. Harbord, presi- dent of the Radio Corporation.of America: H. E. Ives, of the Bel] Tele- phone laboratories; Dr. Slosson and numerous others, The occasion was one amply warranting their presence. Experimentation in color photography is nearly half a century old. Since the first attempt to make photographs reproduce colors, many processes have been devised for both .“still” pictures and movies, but every process hitherto has suffered severe limitations in the matter of practicability. It is within the memory of most of us when natural color movies were little better than a blinding blur utterly devastating to the vision because the colors failed to “track’’ accurately on the black and white images previously recorded on the film. The colors themselves many times failed miserably to approximate with any degree of fidelity the more familiar tints of nature, but seemed to have emanated from some obscure garret, habited by an ambitious but uninspired dabbler in pigments of the coarser and more raucous sorts. The new color motion picture process, based upon a totally different .<praciple from that employed in earlier experiments, represents the ac- \ Re , ad curate and brilliant reproduction of every color and tint and shade in nature, and at the same time is so simple that any amateur photographer can readily utilize it for the making of movies. The point is stressed that this epochal development, for the time be- ing, is made available only to amateur movie makers. Instead & * * a ] of having the usual smooth surface, the side opposite the sensitive coating is embossed with cylindrical lenses so minute as to be invisible to the naked eye. These lenses, which are a part of the film itself and made of the film substance, would each look, vastly magnified, like a rib of a corru- gated iron roof. They run lengthwise on the ribbon of film, and 559 of them are equal to one inch in width. This means that one of these infinitesimal lenses is approximately equivalent in width to the thick- ness of two cigarette papers! The effect of these invisibly small lenses is to separate the rays of light coming through the three segments of a three-colored ‘light filter” into the camera. Each of the three colors of the filter—red, green and blue—lets into the camera from the scene in front of the camera only the light rays of its own color. The three different colored light rays register on the film only as black and white, but each tiny lens embossed on the film so distributes the light rays falling upon it that the different colors register on the sensitive film emulsion as a distinct black and white impression for each color at that point. The light of the projector, then, passes through the film in such a way that it shines out through the tiny film lenses, and then through the projector lens, each ray being directed through the proper color on the light filter to fall on its proper spot on the screen. The combina- tion of the three colors, red, green and blue, gives every possible natural color. But, needless to say, al! this is a great deal too far back in the book for me, and it will be no more-than the part of discretion and self- defense to turn the discourse back to Dr. Slosson. ’ i. 7 * HE most radically new element in the process is the film. R, SLOSSON points out that any angular piece of any transparent material will break up plain white light into its color components and sort these according to their respective wave lengths, much as the radio receiver sorts out the broadcasts of the various stations according to their wave lengths. A lens is simply a circular prism, throwing various colors into rings, like a rainbow, instead of a straight spectrum band. We commonly ear Dr. Slosson clearly refers to his own set, not mine—that there are seven colors in the spectrum, but we can as well say that white light consists of a hundred or a thousand colors, for it can be divided into as many parts as we please, depending purely upon the power of our prisms. Three, it seems, are sufficient to reproduce any color, shade or tint of all the infinite variety of nature. Hence the Eastman color filter and the tiny lenses on the film which give the effect of a camera within a camera. Now this new film is sensitized on one side and ces with these minute cylindrical lenses in front on the celluloid side. These catch the colored rays and focus them on the sensitive emulsion on the re- verse side. So we finally have a film in which the original scene in front of the camera is represented in miniature by dots or lines side by side standing for its color components. When the film is projected by the reverse of the procedure by which it was taken, the picture on the screen really consists of red, blue and green points, too small to be separable by the eye. We see them as smooth and blended color. And so it comes out that, like the absence of halftones from “half- tones” and the nonexistence of movement in ‘‘moving pictures,” color does not appear on a color film! i: 8° G8 * At : ‘ ating movie ) A pes or. \ . ~. are “a =: Ms Res. aay Pe 3 OR the speedy enlightenment of those who may feel moved to peti- tion this department for further scientific dissection of this mar- » velous and invaluable achievement I hasten to state that the whole ig is over my head, like the vast, blue canopy of heaven, and | have get down here what the Eastman laboratories had previously set - down on paper for me.

COMEDIENNE HAS NO YEN FOR CRYING One comedienne who has no desire to be a tragedienne is Laura La Plante, whose newest Universal comedy, “Home James,” is this week’s feature at the Earle Theater It is one of the traditions of the theater that the comedy group want to do trag.dy and vice versa. Each, doubt, would like to show hi: tility br “showing up” the others. But Miss La Plante is satisfied with hes comedy roles. She believes it is much more diffic uv *o be a good come- ditenne than to be a good tragedienne. “The a ting in comedy must be more suvtle than in tragedy,” said Miss Le Plante. “One can actually overact in tragedy withcut the audience noticing it; but try it In comedy and see what happens. The audience will refuse to react—and nothing is more. pitiable than a player who is trying to be funny and isn’t. “The tragic feeling is caused by al- most the same things to most people, so it is not difficult to arouse this emotic in the audience. But every on laughs at something else. Some things will be funny to the sophisti- cated people, some to the simple sort; some to the intelligent and some to th, ignorant. To make an average audience laugh the comedy player must ' upo. something that will be funny to every one. “A good comedienne should take her- self seriously. She should play the role very seriously and try not to think of people laughing later at her image on the «creen.” In “Home James,” Miss La Plante is seid to portray her funniest role in motion pictures. MARY NOLAN MAKES THAT HARD GRADE Mary Nolan, ianous Follies beauty who appears as the unpfrincipled blonde in “The Foreign Legion,” an _ exotic romance of the desert which is the current attraction at the Metropolitan Theater, costarring with Norman Kerry and Lewis Stone, is called the most beautiful blonde or the screen. Her life reads like a fairy taie She was born in St. Joseph, Mo., and was left an orphan at an early age, her only relative being unanle to adopt her. She was placed in the St. Joseph’s Orphan-~- age, where she was one of the “slavies,” girls who had to wash dishes for their board. With the aid ot her brother, who was a few years older, she ran away at the age of 14 and went immediately to New York. She was unsuccessful at first, but one day Arthur William Brown, the noted artist. saw her crying on a Fifth avenue bus and was so struck by her beauty that he used her as a model. Soon she was posing for Brown’s friends, Harrison Fisher, Childe Has- sam, Louis Betz, James Montgomery Flagg, Neyset M:Mein and Charles Dana Gibson. screen no versa- A LOVEY GIRL, but we are not informed which of the Lovey Girls, in ight and R the “Moonli revue at the Earle, this is!

BEBE FINDS FINGERFULS OF THRILLS “Next to working in an ammunition factory, I think the most dangerous job in the world is that of a newsreel cameraman!” So declares Bebe Daniels after several months of thrilling work in “Hot News,” now showing at Loew’s Palace Theater. In this picture Miss Daniels plays the part of an intrepid newsreel girl who flirts with death on several occasions in order to get close-up views of great events for her camera. “We are not apt t. realize the great dangers these fearless men go through,” Miss Daniels declares, “in order to get the scenes we see from our comfort- able seats in the theater. They risk their lives in remote sections of the world, filming shipwrecks, erupting vol- canoes, wild animals, airplanes, riots, and even scenes of great beauty from almost inaccessible places. “Speaking of inaccessible places re- minds me,” the star continues, “of a scene in ‘Hot News’ which took Neil Hamilton, my leading man, and myself to the most hair-raising place either of us has ever been. “We sat on the little finger of the Statue of Liberty, holding ourselves in position with one hand and grasping our motion picture cameras in the other! It was a great thrill for us, but I suppose that a real newsreel camera- man would have taken it as a matter of routine duty and thought nothing of it.” Additions. Tom Ricketts and Brandon Hurst are the latest additions to the cast of “Interference.” Principals in the film are Evelyn Brent, Doris Kenyon, Clive igiving h!m a part In Crook and William Powell. TOUGH EGGS NOT SO BAD IN PRIVATE cast as a wealthy and evil merchant in “The Crimson City,” now playing at the Fox Theater, has won an enviable reputacion as interpreter of the sinister in Chinese character. He has appeared in many screen successes depicting Oriental life. Among the pictures to which he has added his subtlety are “The Sea Beast” and “Old San Francisco.” Dougias Fairbanks was the man who first recognized Sojin’s unique gentus, “The Thief of Bag- dad.” He appeared also in the screen version of “The Bat,’ and now has one of his best parts as Sing Yoy in “The Crimson City.” Another interesting character study in the Fox screen feature this week is the “Dagger Foo” of Matthew Betz. He was born in St. Louis, Mo., and edu- cated there. His first stage appearance was in 1910 in “Ellis Island.” He has had ex- perience in all departments of the show business from burlesque to drarna, play- ing “straights,” his especial forte be- ing light comedy. One of his most famous roles was in “A Night on Broad- way.” He entered pictures in 1920, among his successes being parts in “My Old Kentucky Home,” “Slim Shoulders,” “Checkers,” “Stealers,” “Those Who Dance” and “The Lighthouse by the Sea.” Mr. Betz is married and lives in Hollywood. Sojin, eee Won’t Be Long. “School Begins” is the title bestowed upon the latest Hal Roach “Our Gang” comedy, just shipped East. Harry ‘pear is the featured kiddie in this latest Robert McGowan opus. SOUND DEVICES IMPORT ANT BUT THE PICTURE MORE SO and no sound devices or other inventions can change that fundamental basis of film entertain- ment.” This is the first item in the pro- fessional creed of Monta Bell, former Washington newspaper man and fa- mous movie director who has moved from Hollywood to be production ex- ecutive of the Paramount studio on Long Island. The studio will be de- voted to sound pictures. “To hold audiences week after week, you've got to give them something up there on the screen to intrigue the eye, something they'll be glad to look at, You must give them movement, vVa- riety, interest, beauty. The fascination lies in the picture. “Sound is a wonderful accompani- ment and auxiliary in telling the story effectively, but it mever can take first importance. It can be of marvelous aid in bringing out effects more strongly, adding atmosphere and color to the scene, stepping up the big mo- ments of tension when it seems that the screen itself must cry out to ex- press full meaning of its drama. |} Sound, however, should not be used monotonously or blindly. Sound used pie ter picture is still the thing, with good taste is the e. “Furth hermore, the need for pictures that satisfy and conform to the tests of the eye is greater now than ever. Even by the end of this year it is esti- mated that only about 1,000 theaters will be equipped to exhibit sound ef- fects. The majority of movie houses for a long time will remain silent. But sound by its novelty will provide strong competition, so that the other theaters will need more than ever to show the very best pictures. Producers must bear this in mmd. We intend to make every production the strongest film—as a picture—which it 1s possible to turn out. Even in silent pictures, I believe, this will greatly ralse the standards. “We're all amateurs in sound pic- tures, as yet,” he says modestly,” and the talking pictures so far released get by on their appeal as novelties. “Just at present the novelty of talk- ing films will draw crowds to the the- ater, no matter what the picture itself may be. One can’t say how long this novelty attraction will remain effective. It certainly is not lasting, however. The use of sound must, in the end, be made to result in a better picture, or it will not justify itself. Our plans for the Lo Island studio certainly have in mihd the turning out of the most effectively synchronized sound pictures the development of the proc- ess will permit. }psychology to it-—the big fellow get- A GUIDE TO THE PICTURES (screen).

This W eek’s Screen Plays PALACE—Bebe Daniels in “Hot News.” Suspense, thrills, humor, adventure and romance dominate Bebe Daniels’ new picture, “Hot News,” now playing at Loew's Palace. It is pot only a spectacular and entertaining picture in which Miss Daniels is presented, but also @ graphic and authentic depiction of one of the most exciting professions in the world—that of a newsreel camera man, The story deals with the exploits of @ newsreel camera girl who steps into her father’s business at a crucial time and saves him from ruin by “scooping” the other newsreel services at every turn. “Hot News” is one of the most thrilling pictures Miss Daniels has ever made, The events themselves are breath-taking, but the manner in which Miss Daniels obtains views is even more so. The audience will be astonished to see Miss Daniels on top of the Statue of Liberty with her camera attempting to film incoming transatlantic liners. On the stage Wesley Eddy, just back from Gotham, presents Joseph Sant- ley’s premier show for Loew-Publix, “Babes on Broadway,” a stage creation with plenty of pep, punch and pulchri- tude, featuring the Twelve Gamby- Gamby-Hale Girls, Helen Honan, the Collette Sisters, Fred Bernard, Electa Havel, Sally Starr and the Palace Syn- copators. The M-G-M newsreel, Charles Gatige at the organ console, Harry Borjes’ Or- chestra and selected short subjects complete the bill. METROPOLITAN —Lewis Stone and Norman Kerry in “The Foreign Legion.” Thrilling adventure, exotic romance, picturesque scenes and characters, and a stirring story of love and revolt are all to be found in “The Foreign Le- gion,” which is this week’s major screen offering at Crandall’s Metropolitan The- ater.

The supporting cast is excellent. Mary Nolan, as the un- principled blonde, and June Marlowe, as the girl sweetheart, appear to ad- vantage. Craufurd Kent and Walter Perry are also in the cast. Thousands have read “The Red Mi- rage,” by I. A. R. Wylie, from which “The Foreign Legion” was adapted. ting bumped is funny, but a little fel- low arouses sympathy when he’s hurt. On the other hand, a little fellow, scared and running frantically around, is funny, and a big feliow in the same plight just looks 'ike a boob.” “As a matter of fact,” sald Arthur, “it’s not the ittle fellow running around that does it—but the way he runs. He has always to run into some kind of trouble. 1 think the basis of comedy for a little fellow is to run into’ trouble by accident—then extri- cate himself by ois wits. You see, an audience is always in sympathy with a little fellow when he does a clever trick to get out of trouble he’s blun- dered into. I don't know why, but it works.” Dane is over six feet tall and Arthur a little over five, and the contrast be- tween the two is another factor, they both think, in their success. GRIFFITH IS A BELIEVER IN BEING READY Thoroughness of detail in conse- quential things and a full realization of the broadness and scope of his media are two of the factors that have elevated D. W. Griffith to the front ranks of the picture dramatists. Illustrative of this is his indulgence in the pet pecullarity of rehearsing his screen players sometimes three and four weeks before actual shooting starts. An senting Vitaphone each week, tropolitan offers several selected short- reel Vitaphone presentations. The Metropolitan Orchestra, under Alex Podnos, will be heard in a spe- cially compiled score and as an atmos- phere prelude, J. Lionel Goodman will offer a violin solo, “Estrellita,” by Manuel Ponce. FOX—Myrna Loy City.” Myrna Loy is featured as a Chinese “Madame Butterfly” in the screen pro- duction of “The Crimson City” now at the Fox Theater. Here is a story of the China Coast that presents a thrilling tale that is reported to be excellenity written, di- rected and played. Effective acting is assured by the appearance of the fol- lowin,, artists in addition to Miss Loy: John Miljan, Leila Hyams, Matthew Betz, Anders Randolf, Sojin, with many notable Chinese characterizations to his credit; Anna May Wong, a native Chinese, and Richard Tucker. Miss Toy has ‘won twofold recogni- tion on the screen. She is gifted both in “The Crimson the ree | Norman Kerry and Lewis Stone, two!

As “Nan Toy” this star brules her personality completely and, from advance reports, is as strikingly beautiful in the dfess and make-up of the Chinese as is Anna May Wong, who plays many important scenes with Miss Loy. Another of the S. J. Stebbins’ mid- Summer revues constitute the stage portion of the program. In the new Stage program the Harmony Revelers, a noted stage band, will be the princi- pal feature with Eva Shirley, who needs no introduction to Washington theater- goers, heading the roster of individual] artists. The Fox Movietone News will pre- sent many new world events itn sound and motion while the Fox Orchestra, with Leon Brusiloff conducting, will of- fer another of the summer series of re- quest overtures. LaPlante James.” Laura LaPlante will be the featured screen star at the Ear'e this week in her latest Universal picture, “Home James,” reported to be one of the blonde star’s greatest hits. It reveals Miss La Plante in the role of a department store clerk and gives the comedienne a great Opportunity. There are several sequences, accord- ing to advance reports in which Miss LaPlante goes through a series of pan- tomimes that are as clever as anything RARLE -—— Laura in “Home | she has done for the screen. - On the stage will be a refreshing summertime revue, ‘Moonlight and Roses,” featuring Jimmie Rodgers, the popular Victor recording artist known as “The Singin’ Brakeman,” and Charlle Althoff, the rube fiddler. Others in the revue are the Lovey Girls, Kardo Broth- ers, Frank Seifert and Joe Bonbrest as master of ceremonies. The story of “Home James” is excep- tional. Morton Blumenstock adapted it specially for the star from Gladys John- son’s stage play. Universal also en- gaged him to write the film adaptation. The result is said to be a story that is funnier than most, get one with a pot that ig interesting and unusual, It concerns a small town girl who goes to the big city to become an artist. Once there, she sells pictures in a depart- ment store for a living. The son of the store owner is mistaxen by her for & chauffeur and the two fall in love. Charles Delaney is tne son. Aileen Manning, as the stepmother, and Joan Standing, as .Laura’s stepsister, ‘have many comedy incidents of their own. The cast also includes George Pearce, Arthur Hoyt and Sidney Bracy The program is completed by the Earle topical review and musica] ac- companiment by the orchestra under Daniel Breeskin. COLUMBIA—Karl! Dane and Geo. K. Arthur, in “Detectives.” Karl Dane and George K. Arthur, the cheerful team of funmakers who through “Rookies,” ‘Baby Mine” and “Circus Rookies,” are back once more at Loew’s Columbia Theater in their latest Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production, “Detectives.” Dane plays the part of the elongated “hick” house detective in a hotel and the diminutive Arthur plays the part of a bellboy who is eager to become a detective. Marceline Day appears us the pretty public stenographer whom Dane and Arthur love. Grim mystery, sinister shadows, secret trapdoors and a mysterious plot in the dark furnish a new twist in the comedy of this inimitable team. They blunder into a series of thrills as they try to recover jewels stolen from one of the guests of the hotel. Each thinks that the one who recovers the jewels will win favor with the girl. When they become involved with the “master crook” the fun begins. In addition to the feature picture, there are the M-G-M newsreel, selected short subjects, a novel organlogue and the Columbia orchestra, under the direction of Claude Burrows. BARRYMORE APPROACHES BUSIEST DAYS OF HIS LIFE expensive practice it is—considering the current trend of salaries—but to Grif- fith it is the very backbone of his eco- nomic independence as a producer. “Rehearsal,” he says, “acquaints the players with their parts and gives them an opportunity to study the characters so that there can be no wastage of time when actual production is under way with its huge overhead in lights and labor.” An actual instance in defense of re- hearsals is given in the preparation for “The Love Song,” which is to feature William Boyd, Jetta Goudal and Lupe Velez. Miss Velez is Mexican and has but a beginner’s knowledge of the Eng- lish tongue. ITH, preparations for his next United Artists picture rapidly Y taking shape and arrangements being completed for the world’s great- est presentation of “Hamlet” in an out- of-door setting, John Barrymore faces the busiest months of his career. The screen and stage star’s next mo- tion picture will be an Ernst Lubitsch production, a story of the Napoleonic veriod adapted from a best-selling Eu- ropean novel, and production probably will be launched early in the autumn. It has not been decided whether Bar- rymore will resume work at the United Artists studio before or after he pre- sents “Hamlet” at the Hollywood Bowl and at the Greek Theater, in Berkeley, Calif. These al fresco presentations of “Hamlet” are certain to attract the largest crowds that ever witnessed per- formances of the Shakespearean trag- edy. The Hollywood Bowl! has a seat- ing capacity of 20,000, and the Greek Theater at the University of Califor- nia seats many thousands. Electrical experts who handled the effects for the New York and London triumphs of Barrymore in “Hamlet” are working on the effects to be used in the bowl and at Berkeley. A notable cast will ap- pear in support of the star. United Artists studio executives are planning the next Barrymore film spe- cial on an even bigger scale than his most recent success, “Tempest,” which ran for weeks at the Embassy Theater in New York, and has just had its Western premiere at the United Artists Theater in Los Angeles, A definite title has not yet been an- nounced for the Lubitsch production, adapted from a German novel, “Der Koenig der Bernina.” The story is laid in Switzerland during the early part of the nineteenth century. The picture will mark the first association of the famous director and Barrymore. United Artists will make the production with sound devices. A BRILLIANT PREMIERE IS CELEBRATED ON THE COAST PENING before the most brilliant audience of motion picture ce- lebrities gathered together this season, “Lilac Time,” First National’s first sound picture made its bow at the Carthay Circle Theater, Logs An- geles, last week. It was the world premiere of the production, and filmdom turned out as a body to pay t-ibute to Colleen Moore, the star; to John McCormick, producer of her pictures, and Fitz- maurice, the director of this sound special, In anticipation of the event, thou- sands of people lined the streets and sidewalks approaching the theater to see the stars arrive. Kleig lights and sunarcs illumina the approaches, and. gietragpces isp announced to the crowd each party of notables as their motors rolled ba to the entrance. The LEON BRUSILOFF, conductor of the Fox Sym- phony, who this week re- turns to the pit after having led last week’s ‘‘Melody Mas- ters” on the stage. house had been completely sold out for several days. Douglas Fairbanks and Mary Pick- ford attended, as did also Charlie Chap- lin, Gloria Swanson, Billie Dove, Corinne Griffith, Richard Barthelmess, Jack Mulhall, Dorothy Mackaill, Charlie Murray, Alice White and very many others. Conrad Nagel acted as master of cere- monies, Miss Moore made a personal ap- pearance, the first in her history, and presented a novelty film that was taken recently at the First National Studios, showing scenes of ‘‘erself and Mayor “Jimmy” Walker, of New York, who was present as the principal speaker. ‘Mayor Walker made one of his char- acteristically witty addresses. Gary Cooper and other featured members of the cast were presented from the stage.

SUPERPOWER STATIONS ARE BLAMED FOR CHAOS _ Administration of Act of 1928 | Hampered by Their Pres- sure, Is Charge. A vigorous deferise of his now fa- mous “equal division amendment,” With the assertion that ©f practical administration and that the whole trouble grows out of pressure | brought to bear by certain interesis upon the Radio Commission, comes from Representative Ewin L. Davis, of Tennessee. He also declares that Com- missioner C. H. Caldwell is doing all he can to administer the amendment in ag @ way as to “absolutely ruin ra- Sane Judge Davis, a Democrat, who has been in Congress nine years and has no opposition for renomiation nor for re- election, is at present at his home in Tullahoma, Tenn. His views were sought because of the recent assertions in Washington that the Davis amend- ment was unworkable and following eharges made against it by Representa- tive Emanuel Celler, of New York. The latter quickly drew the fire of the Picturesque Tennessee legislator. “As to Representative Emanuel Celler, of New York, appearing before the Fed- eral Radio Commission and declaring that the ‘Davis amendment’ to the radio law is an ‘obnoxious piece of leg- islation and has brought in politics and Judge Davis replied, “Emanuel ought to be able to give ex- pert testimony on ‘politics and section- aljsm’ as he is perhaps as much sat- alism’ as he is perhaps as much satu- try. However, his real objection to this provision is not that it has brought in Politics and sectionalism, because it has not, but ebecause, if administered according to its terms and spirit, it will prevent politics and sectionalism. “A resident of the locality favored far beyond its just quota of broadcasting facilities, Mr. Celler is not fair enough to be willing for the rest of the coun- try to have a square deal, although many of his colleagues from New York were broad-minded enough to support the amendment désigned to give fair and ecual treatment to all sections of the country. Accuses Colleague of Weakening. “Representative Celler is quoted as Having further stated that the amend- ment has brought radio chaos. The only chaos it has brought is in the minds of the owners of the superpower stations, which is not only necessary for their own legitimate purposes, but which works such havoc among other broadcasters and among listeners who de not care to listen alone to these Superpower stations. “I wish to repeat. what I have many times said, that the 1928 radio act is & eminently fair and entirely workable. While it directs an equal allocation of broadcasting facilities between the dif- ferent zones, and a fair and equitable allocation between the different States within a zone, yet it does not direct an increase or a decrease of the ag- gregate number of stations, power or periods of time for operation. “Tt S @pparent that the whole trou- ble with respect to the administration of the 1928 radio act grows wut of the pressure brought to bear by the mo- nopoly superpower stations to retain their present. unnecessary and harmful power, and the support of their con- tap by some members of the com- ission, particularly Commissioner Caldwell, who has repeatedly and per- sistenily misrepresented and endeay- ored to discredit the law, in an ef- fort to save the excessively high power of a few stations, whose cause he cham- pions in season and out. “There can not be a scientitic and Satisfactory equal allocation of broad- between the zones, and a fair and equitable allocation among the different States within each Zone, as directed by the law, without “ reduction of the power of those sta- rae a Cnorized to employ 50,000 and 30, watt power. Commissioner Cald- well, the chief champion of high power can easily be answered by his own lan- guage.”* Caldwell Testimony Cited. hereupon Judge Davis refers to mony given by Mr. Caldwell at the ate hearings where the latter said that the result of an increase in a sta- tion’s power from 5,000 watts to 50,000 watts “is to make it very strong in the immediate area without any great ex- tension of distance reached.” Also is cited the testimony of Com- missioner Caldwell at the House hear- ing when he said, “Experience has shown that no station gets out with any consistent and good service more than 100 to 150 miles regardless of how much power is put back of it.” “However, Commissioner Caldwell persists in pursuing the course,” Judge Davis continued, “which according to his own testimony would absolutely ruin radio.” “When the 1928 radio act, embracing the equal allocation provision, was pending before the Senate last March, Commissioner Caldwell wrote a letter to Senator Ransdell, ‘l am, therefore, in fullest sympathy with the intent of the present radio legislation before Congress.’ Would Ignore Caldwe!!. "The confirmation of Commissioner Caldwell was then hanging in the bal- ance, and it is undoubtedly true that had he not written this letter, which was called to the attention of the Sen- ate, the bare majority of one by which he was subsequently confirmed would hgve been converted into a consider- able majority against confirmation. “Doing all he can to distort, misin- te t and disregard the true meaning and intent of the equalization amend- ment, and to insist upon administering it in such a way as to absolutely ruin radio, he was recently quoted in the press as saying: i “‘Certainly, an enraged public opin- fon will be directed at those incompe- tent lawmakers which led Congress in this,’ referring to the equalization amendment. “In view of Commissioner Caldwell’s bold and flagrant disrespect for the law and disregard for his official oath, the other members of the commission should ignore him and proceed to carry ‘the law into effect according to its clear terms and purpose.” Sparkling Wine’s Foe. t t ‘ ‘ j | i } it is capable | ' CLINTON R.

ALL COAST GUARD onlPa GET LATEST RADIO otTa eee e+ Up-to-Date Transmission Ap- paratus Vital Part of Boat Equipment. DETAILS OF INSTALLATION The Coast Guard, which because of its hazardous work in the protection of life at sea has urgent need for the most up-to-date methods of communi- cation, is equipping all of its ships with radio apparatus of modern design. The now equipment comprising the stallations on vessels of the first Such as the Tampa, is as follows: Main transmitter-type T2—2KW tube trans. CW—ICW—phone. Auxiliary transmitter-type T-4—200 watt tube transmitter, CW—ICW. Vessels assigned to Ice Patrol carry In addition to this a type XA 500 watt high frequency transmitter. _.All other first class cutters and 1,000 ton destroyers are now, or will be be- fore the end of the year, equipped with type T-3 500 watt tube transmitters. In most cases, except where lack of Space prevented, T4 transmitters were installed as auxillary sets. Second class cutters destroyers have been T-4 transmitters. In most cases motor generators for these sets have been installed in the radio room thus avoiding the necessity for an emergency set. The installation of type TS trans- mitters. (similar to the T4 having a 32-volt supply) has been completed on ll vessels of the 125-foot boat class During the coming fiscal year 1929 in- stallations on the remaltning 22 vessels of this type will have been completed This change includes the alteration of the pilot house to create a radio room a much desired improvement. One 100-foot patrol boat, the Eagle has also been equipped with a TS transmitter, and it is probable that the remalining vessels of her class will be so equip- ped. An expedition commanded by Lieut. Comdr. E. H. Smith, U. S&S. C. G. left New London, Conn., about July 6, aboard the Coast Guard Cutter Marion for the purpose of conducting an ocean- ographic expedition in the vicinity of Greenland. In order to provide effi- client communication with the expedi- tion while in the Arctic regions, the Marion has been equipped with a 250- watt high frequency transmitter operating in the 20 and 40 meter wave bands. Tests, using this transmitter, were conducted prior to departure, and judging from the reports received it is thought that this equipment will meet all the requirements. Many amateurs throughout the United States reported logging the transmission, the greatest distances being Seattle, Wash.; Oak- land, Calif.; and Mobile, Ala. The cutters Shaw and Alexander Hamilton, 2,500 miles distant, reported having heard the tests. In addition, the Marion is equipped with a T5 transmitter and a radio compass. Her call letters are NITB. RADIO STUDIO PARTIES NEW AMUSEMENT FAD Cards of Admission to Broad- casting Are Eagerly Sought For. New York’s latest entertainment fad is hearing radio programs in the broad- cast studio. Music lovers and radio enthusiasts are finding a new thrill in this experience. One of the most popular evenings Is Wednesd..y, when the Palmolive hour is broadcast from WEAF over the Na- tional Broadcasting Co.’s system. On an average Olive Palmer and Paul Oliver, coloratura soprano and tenor favorites, greet about 300 persons in the studio each week. These studio evenings resemble for- mal musicales on an elaborate scale. Admission is by card only and these are not easily obtainable because of the necessary limitation of the number of guests. It is also essential that those present be perfectly quiet and that the room should not be overcrowded, as it is said that this tends to interfere with the successful broadcasting of the programs. in- class, and ‘750-ton furnished witb Byrd’s Antarctic Station | Named for Floyd Bennett Possibly the first commercial sta- tion in the world to bear the name vf a person as a memorial to him is station “Floyd Bennett,” of the Byrd Antarctic expedition, which 1s to sail for Polar waters next month. Named after the man who died as the result of exposure in an effort to rescue the German-Irish trans- atlantic fliers stranded in Iceland, station “Floyd Bennett” has been the | NQUESTIONABLY the broadcasting of the notification cere- monies of Secretary Hoover Saturday from Palo Alto will be the supreme effort thus far of the Republican party. Uppermost in their minds, of course, is the acceptance speech of Gov. Al Smith, which is to follow eleven days later. The ambition of the Republicans in broadcasting the Hoover speech is not only to do everything the Democrats can do with Gov. Smith’s speech—but to do it first. An idea of how closely the Republicans are watching the Demoerats on this is the assertion made by one well in- formed person that although preliminary announcements of the stations participating in the Hoover broadcast may be made, the complete hook- up will not be divulged until the eleventh hour, if at all, to keep the Democrats from finding out how many stations actually participated. The reason for this secrecy is that under the radio law every radio station that participates in the Hoover broadcast can be required to afford equal facilities to the Smith ceremonies. How many stations may participate in the broadcasting is not known at this writing, but it is safe to assume that the Republicans will aim to establish a new record. To do this they will have to go some, inasmuch as the latest effort along that line—that of Judge Joseph F. Rutherford, to Pastor Russell, today, contemplates the use of 96 stations. If the Hoover network should include 100 stations, as has been inti- mated, it would be twice as large as that of Col. Charles Lindbergh or the recent Tunney-Heeney fight and considerably greater than either of the national conventions, which included approximately 68 stations. Where in the beginning Secretary Hoover was an indifferent speaker off the air and on, he has now through practice in public speaking, ac- quired an excellent radio presence. One of the advantages broadcasting brought with it, in so far as Mr. Hoover was concerned, was that it allowed him to read a speech which in his methodical wav, he could prepare carefully in advance. Successor * ° * ° Likewise the radio and the amplifiers for the visible audience have been of assistance to Mr. Hoover because of the timber of his voice. This writer recalls a large audience at a meeting of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States years ago virtually ‘‘walking out” on the Secretary at Atlantic City because they couldn't hear him. The late Lord Northcliffe, with a powerful voice, was the preceding speaker and he held the crowd almost to a man, but when Mr. Hoover began speaking the audience became restless and started trekking toward the doors. On the radio it will be quite different, heard distinctly in all parts of the country. in the great California stadium which seats 90,000 persons every one there ought to be able to hear just as well. ~ for every word should be » 7 — So great have been the strides radio has made since then Ralph Edmunds, manager of Station WRC, the station’s fifth birthday last Wednesday it have been talking about something that had instead of only 5. “In those days the only place anybody could broadcast from the station,’”’ Mr. Edmunds said, ‘‘We had only one studio and every one who went on the air had to go to Fourteenth and Park road to doit.

This includes the Nationa) Episcopal Cathedral, on Mount St. Alban; numerous churches, the Wash- ington Auditorium and the principal theaters and hotels. ‘‘We were then dividing time with Station WCAP air but three nights a week. almost continuously. Our program runs from 6:45 to 7:50 in the morn- ing and then from 9:45 a. m. on through to 11 o'clock at night, about fourteen hours a day, as against four hours a night In the beginning.” s a. . oe and were on the A deal is reported pending by Variety, the theatrical weekly in New York, for the sale of the Columbia broadcasting chain, of which Stations WOR, in Newark, and WABC, in New York, are the key stations, for a price ranging from $15,000,000 to 320,000,000. “The approaching political battle for the Presidency is said to have a bearing on the sale also,’”’ Variety continues, “‘in addition to the gigantic growth of the radio fleld as a means of dispensing entertainment and the tremendous advertising and exploitation possibilities following. “The value of the radio network may be judged more fully when it is considered that the Columbia chain does not own any of the stations, merely having a leasing arrangement with each station whereby pro- grams can be broadcast generally.” Clinton R. White, of Chicago, who comes into the nationa! radio lime- light as the president of the newly organized Independent Broadcasters Association, is really an old-timer in the game. He was a steamship wireless operator of the Marcon! Wireless Telegraph Co. on the Atlantic and in European waters in 1915. He has had a practical experience in both the scientific and business ends of radio ever since the days when radio was called ‘‘wireless.”’ Mr. White is 33 years of age and the owner of Station WCRW at Chicago. * a ° . Evidently Coolidge luck is not prevailing on the Brule in so far as the President’s radio receiving sets are concerned, It has been learned that in addition to their other mechanical troubles up there, the installation of an additional farm lighting set at Cedar Lodge caused reception to be considerably marred. This difficulty, however, was investigated and elimfhated by engineers of Station WEBC, at Superior, and now the only interference is atmospheric—static, which is reported as still bad. On the other hand, the Presdent’s summer sojourn has evidently in- spired Station WEBC to still greater efforts, having at the beginning of the summer received special permission from Judge Ira E, Robinson, chairman of the Federal Radio Commission, to increase its power so that the head of the Nation might be better entertained. — ” +. w * “WEBC has originated new features which compare favorably with any in the country,” private advices from Superior inform ys. ‘“Bvening dance music is given by the well-known Hale Byers Orchestra, which has come to Solar Springs for the summer to get in shape for the exacting winter work. WEBC has now a permanent studio orchestra for dinner concerts. ‘The station’s program for the future is ambitious and will not be dropped after the President leaves, but will expand. “There is close relationship with Station WCCO at Minneapolis and a plan is being formylated for a Northwestern chain with key stations WEBC and WCCO. Very substantial backing by the Weyhausers tin- sures the program being carried through.” Short Waves Not one copy-reader in a hundred contents himself with the fact Chair- man Ira E. Robinson, of the radio com- mission, was formerly the president of Following the action taken by the Republicans, the Democratic national committee has created a radio bureau. It is located in New York and headed by Josef Israels 2d. The first work of both bureaus will be arranging details for hook-ups to carry the acceptance speeches of their respective presidential candidates. | | | Now we are heard seven days in the week,| IMINATION OF 300 AIR BROADCASTER Commission’s Proposal Af- fects Both Parties, Especial- ly at Isolated Points.

Caldwell, new chief counsel of the commission, is building up his legal fences should court actions be precipitated. Likewise it is predicted that no speed records will be broken in reaching conclusions itn the general reallocation plan which has been under considera- tion since equal reallocations of wave lengths and power throughout the country were made mandatory by the Davis amendment last March. Delay to Reallocations. The plan will not be announced until the middle of September, at least, ac- cording to one member of the commis- sion. This brings to mind the “Stop— Look—and Listen’’ advice, as it has come to be known, given to the com- mission recently by Representative Lehlbach (Rep.), of New Jersey, one of the framers of the Radio Act who 6aid: “My own construction of the Davis amendment is that the commission should not immediately and arbitrarily make equal reallocation among the five zones but that this was to come about reasonably.” Perhaps, however, there may be more progress with regard to the plan with the appointment of Dr. J. H. Dellinger, of the Bureau of Standards, as the chief engineers of the commission. If Dr. Dellinger, acknowledged to be one of the country’s foremost radio engineers, gives his full time to the subject, it would seem considerable headway ought to be made. Dr, Del- linger personally is known to favor the éngineer’s fifty cleared channel plan, but what he may recommend to the commission in his official capacity ts a matter of conjecture.

We To the Radio Editor of The Post— Sir: As one who attended the Tunney- Heeney fight by means of the radio, I wish to testify that Tom Heeney was not the only one who suffered on that now historic occasion. Millions of in- nocent radio listeners took more pun- ishment at the hands—or rather the voice—of Announcer Phillips Carlin than was meted by the former Marine to the doughty Ne Zealander. Tom Heeney at least had a brief respite between rounds; he didn’t have to listen to Carlin trying to be funny Fearful lest they miss the resumption of hostilities the long-suffering radio public simply had to endure Carlin and his painful, nerve-shattering wise- cracking. . Just why the excitable McNamee needs a comic foil is a mystery the key to which is held only by the Na- tional Broadcasting Co. The night of the fight Mr. Carlin was so superfluous as to be a nuisance and so bana! as to cause acute mental anguish.

Z7- MOTORS ard MOTORING AMONG US MOTORISTS Discussing Those Matters That Concern Us All By WILLIAM ULLMAN — Headlights are not the only thing about an automobile that glare. Variety in Road Hogs. There is one time in the career of nearly every motorist when he subcon- aciously is inclined to be « road hog. Unless he is aware of this temptation he is likely to make himself a general muisance. The time in question is right after the acquisition of a new car. Break- ing in the engine carefully requires driving slowly for the first 1,000 miles. Now, driving slowly is only one element of road hoggishness, but it is the first one. The second, keeping in the mid- file of the road, is likely to be the product of inattention or concentration on the operation of the machine in the ease of the new car owner. Therefore, he should keep a close eheck on what part of the highway he uses in putting the first 1,000 miles on his brand-new speedometer. Otherwise, he becomes a road hog. Won't Work, That’s All What’s wrong with this idea? asks a motoring expert of the pro bono pub- lico variety, setting forth the idea somewhat as follows: If there is a filling station on the corner, connecting with both streets, and the light at the intersection is read, why no make a right turn by cutting through the station's drive or to go straight ahead. cut through the drive and get back onto the original thor- oughfare by making a right turn. There is the idea. Now for what’s wrong with it! In the first place, it wouldn’t be a sporting thing to do, and it would be contemptibly unethical with respect to fellow motorists. In the second, filling station drive- ways are not public thoroughfares, and by the time eight or ten motorists had put the idea into practice the proprie- tor of the station would request a few policemen to arrest the trespassers. Anot).«: thing that’s wrong with the idea is that mingling with traffic around a busy filling station is one of ths most effective ways of wasting time that ever has been devised. Still another weakness of it is that it tries to circumvent a method of traf- fic control that was instituted to move motor vehicles smoothly and safely The traffic authorities, in such a case, might be inclined to resent the prac- tice. Then, there is the fact that the light changes from time to time and the motorist might find himself hung up longer than if he stuck to his original course. Apart from these defects, may have some merit. Maybe He Knows Better When the man ahead drives slowly it is not always a sign that he does not know any better. Recently a mo- torlst was noted picking his way gin- gerly over a stretch of road that to the casual glance 'ooked smooth and inviting. The blast of two impatient horns drove him over to the side of the road, but did not increase his pace. The other cars passed at speeds too fast for them to stop before hitting 4 cut that extended entirely across the highway. One of them broke a spring, the other cut a tire almost in half. So. maybe the motorist ahead is driving slowly because he knows better than to do otherwise. It Makes For Good Will “Unloading” cars on the public in a great rush to get the floors cleared for new models is passing out of the motor car retail picture. It has been prac- ticed to a certain extent, and has been found distinctly wanting in the preser- vation of good will. A distributor in one city not long ago found himself with 62 cars on his hands six weeks prior to the introduc- tion of new models. He had to sell them and he did not want to sacrifice the good will of the 62 buyers. What did he do? Well, he instructed his salesmen to tell every prospect upon whom they were calling that the new models were coming and that the fact changed the situation with regard to the value of the cars at which they were looking. In each case, however, the salesman made the point that the present car was 4 good one, able to hold its own in any company. With the price concession and the success of the car to back up the salesmans argument of its merit, the 62 prospects ught. perne distributor is confident that every one of the 62 is still a prospective customer when their present cars wear out. He has kept their good will. Tubes Are Longer Lived Although it seems so long ago that he will have difficulty in recalling it, the average motorist bought more inner tubes back in the day of the high pres- sure tires and during the earlier part of the balloon tire era. Federal figures reveal that last year only 1.20 tubes per casing were sold. In 1926 the rate was 1.49. Accountable for the improve- ment is the greater facility in repairing both tires and tubes and the further fact that the low pressure tires are less hard on the tubes. Precise Meaning Hidden. The wraith idea in naming motor cars seems to be growing. Added to the Gray Ghost line of the highest priced car of them all is the recent contribution under the same name of a more popularly priced make. The only thing about the use of the name that isn’t clear is whether it is “intended to imply the silence or the speed with which a phantom 1s sup- posed to move. The answer to such a speculation probably is “both.” The limit in this direction probably will have been reached when some one names a truck the “Banshee.” In England It Varies. Movwr nomenclature ts not the same in England as in the United States For ‘nstance: The generator is referred to as a *dynamo.” The windshield is termed the ‘windscreen.” A sedan model is a “saloon.” Gasoline, of course, is “pe- trol.” “Antibounce clips” takes the roughness out of British highways, In Amevican we clean carbon, while in England the process is known as ‘de- carbonizing.” And, incidentally, our rumble seat becomes a “dickey” on tite “twisiy” roads of England. ‘ the idea Touring Moto rists Forget Many Helps to Comfort ' 4s Aedes Cited ou bd A By 5 . THE WASHING'TON. . u ee ee ee ee + oe ee ee Disposal of Luggage, Passengers’ Posture, Speed, Tire Pressure, Ventilation and Car Noises All Have Their Effect on Pleasure of Trip. There is a great deal of difference between comfort and discomfort in motor car travel anc yet the things that account for the difference, In themselves, are often small—too small seemingly to be noted in the case of some drivers. As health-giving and zestful as is the average motor tour, it may be made richer in both of these virtues if every potential tourist be- comes aware of those small things which various authorities on the sub- ject see as paramount to comfort. An analytical approach to the ques- tion of touring comfort reveals that it is made up of many factors. The ar- rangement of the luggage, the condl- tion of the spring U-bolts, one’s pos- ture, the speed at which one travels, tire pressures, high-pitched noises in various parts of the car, ventilation— these and a host of other heavily. Of them all, it wouid seem rangement of the luggage would be the most obvious. Yet garagemen who play host to thousands of tourist cars every night of the summer declare that the luggage layout cf many of them is such that occupants of the car are subjected to a straight-jacket effect. Apparently, then, the first rule of com- fort that nothing but the passengers should go inside the car is being fre- quently and flagrantly violated. The fact is all the mor? surprising when one considers the variety of luggage carriers, trunks and similar devices along accessory row. Must The amount of liggage, of depends upon the chwracter and extent of the tour. Experts make point, however, that the average should require nothing that can not be placed in the luggage carrier or in the trunk on the rear. This view of the Luggage Be Limited. the the question, of course, takes into consid- | eration the excellent laundry facilities | that are to be foind everywhere today. For instance, there are only a few cities | seqgt in such a fashion that | ders where 12-hour service is not available. From the standpoint of comfort, the touring rule with reference to luggage may be summed up “keep the ward- robe at a minimum and keep it out- side of the body of the car wherever possible.” There must be room within the car to permit driver and passengers a change in posture from time to time. The car buyer has forced the car maker to cre- ate a surplus of head room and leg room. Why he should sacrifice it on| the annual tour, the most important | trip of the whole year, is a genuine puzzle. The speed of the car is a vital factor in the comfort of the trip. It is impos- sible, of course, to prescribe a speed that will be ideal for every one. At best, with more than one person in the car, it will be a matter of compromise. A pace that is too fast for some will be too slow for others. About the only reasonable general rule that can be laid down is that the speed should not be} so fast that every ounce of the driver's | energy is required to hold the car on the road while every one else in the r.achine is sitting on the edge of his| seat, nor so slow as to be thoroughly annoying. Noises Must Be Watched. Many drivers, apparently, are ' cated at the start of the trip, become ‘actors count that ar- | ' Silent | lous; | tween comfort and discomfort | course, science when the owner its having the car put | not | conscious of the discomfiting effect of | body and engine unless proper care is taken to guard against them, If the car owner will but recall his last trip, he probably will remember that toward its end he became sharply aware of several irritating sounds. These noises are natural. Valve mechanisms pounding along at high speed will be- come loose. Chassis units, well ltubri- heated. Under such conditions the lu- bricant that silenced them at the be- ginning is first thinned, then thrown out. Spring shackles of some types are particularly active offenders in this re- spect. Many arivers have noticed a squeak, high pitched and extremely worrisome, in the steering mechanism after a day or so of hard driving. A few drops of oil, some have discovered, will work wonders if applied to the top of the wheel, No Sign of Weakness. | It is no sign of radical weakness tn | the car that these noises develop. , It is rather an evidence of the fact that | abnormal service demands more than | normal lubrication and adjustment, in| the view of many engineering and serv- ice authorities. The motorist who ts accustomed to oiling and lubricating the car every 500 miles—possibly every two weeks—forgets that possibly he may travel that far in a day and a half on the tour. Accustomed, then, to a greasing schedule based on a time interval, he does not revise it to fit different conditions. Yet revision is the difference between everything being and serene and noisy and nox- in other words, the difference be- there is has proved Then posture.

Mention of these car fea- tures in connection with easy riding would seem to be entirely superfluous— and it would, save for the amazing manner in which they are ignored in the average program of preparing the car for the touring trip. Occasionally, when the springs are remembered, they are treated to an oll bath which tn some cases is worse than nothing at all because it totally de- stroys the friction of the spring leaves. As for having them graphited, cleaned of rust and thoroughly tightened as to clips and U-bolts—an _ inexpensive process that pays huge dividends in comfort—service experts declare that this is an order that seldom {is received into shape for the trip.

These and more significant facts concerning the making of a mo- tor car are reviewed by Aivan Macauley, president of the Packard Motor Car Co. Mr. Macauley points out the strenu- ous demand for service made on the automobile of the present day. Where- as a locomotive is put into a round- house for rigid inspection, he declares, after a run of a few hundred miles, a motor car is expected to run thousands of miles with little thought given to it beyond replenishing its supply of oil, gas and water. “The modern automobile rolls along the streets and highways of the world. effortlessly, all but noiselessly, among its hundreds of thousands of brothers at a speed undreamed of only a few years ago,” says Mr. Macauley. “It has to be a thing of beauty. It has to have perfect symmetry of design and har- mony of color and appointments. It has to operate as perfectly when the thermometer registers below the zero mark as when the scorching sun blazes down upon it on the hottest of days in the desert. Meets All Conditions. “Rain and sunshine, mud, cobble stones and smooth asphalt must the modern automobile meet without fal- tering. Where its progenitors of only a quarter of a century ago were thought to behave beautifully if they ran 5 miles without the necessity for a tow, the luxurious motor car of today is expected to accomplish a 3,000-mile dash from one coast of the United States to the other with as little trouble to its owner as a 5-mile ride from home to office. “With all that is expected of it in performance and all that it must have in beauty and appointments, it must give to its purchaser $1,13 for each and every $1 he pays for it as compared to its cost of 1914. Its manufacturer must be able to sell it for 50 per cent less wheat, 52 per cent less pork, 53 per cent less wool, or 39 per cent less corn than the farmer was called upon to ex- change for it in 1913 when the farm- er’s $1 was worth 100 cents of the 80 cents at which it now is valued. “This is but a brief recital of what the finished product of the motor car TIDE TABLE FOR MOTORIST-FISHERMEN | HIGH TIDE VARIATIONS FROM AUGUST 5 TO AUGUST 12, Mon, Tu Wed.

Just when it 1s thought a chance for a little respite is within sight, conditions or demands for higher standards present entirely new problems with no precedents or for- mulae to aid in their solution. “The civil engineer, the mechanical, the electrical, the hydraulic and the other engineers of ayn_glder school have the world All Nations Contribute. “It is an interesting fact that 182 trades and professions are employed in the building of a modern automobile. There are 40 different and distinct metals used and in these are fourteen basic metals. Forty-seven other basic materials are required in the manufac- ture of a car. Practically every civilized country contributes something to the making of a motor car. “The modern automotive engineer must be a mechanical engineer to start with and in addition to this training he must be somewhat of an electrical engineer. a thermodynamic engineer, a metalurgist, physicist, hydraulic engli- neer, a chemist, a production engineer, a salesman, an executive and an artist Among the most important attributes of the automoF.ie designer must be a keen imagination. “He must also be able to sense long in advance what, in the finished car, will appeal to the great motor buying public. For him to err in this would be serious and for him to fail com- pletely to judge the public reaction would be disastrous. Engineer Conscientious. “The automotive engineer has a keen appreciation of his personal public re- sponsibility just as has the designer of a bridge or the architect of a great building. Automobiles are such com- monly accepted equipment for normal living now, that little thought or at- tention is given them. A locomotive runs 200 or 300 miles and then is put in the roundhouse for rigid inspection The motor car runs thousands of miles with never a thought given it beyond oil, gas and water. It travels at higher speeds than the average locomotive, Is in more constant service and runs over all kinds of roads instead of along smooth, stee] rails.

Reckless driving is penalized in the District traffic act, whick contains the following provision “No individual shal! operate a movtor vehicle over any public highway in the District (1) recklessly; or (2) at a rate of speed greate than is reason- able and proper, having regard to the width of the public highway, the use thereof, and the trafil. thereon; or (3) so as to endanger any property or in- dividual; or (4) so as to unnecessarily or unreasonably to dymage the public highway.” This provision is broad in its appli- cation. It applies generally to any manner of ‘driving which is calculated to injure persons o: property It is so broad that frequenily it happens that a charge of violating the traffic code in another respect is changed to reck- less driving because that is the pre- dominant charactet or the offense.

Camp tables of all sizea and prices are available everywhere. Now, for the. camp bed—a most im- portant item and one that causes no end of grief in case a mistake is made in its selection.

PHEW HPP MODEL + MVBKED BY NN DETHLED CHANGES Appearance and Driving Ease Enhanced by Redesign of Vital Features. TREATMENT OF EXTERIORS HIDES UNITS OF CHASSIS Engineering Revision Made to Eliminate Effects of Road Shocks. Involving a host of refinements de- @igned to enhance appearance and achieve a greater measure of perform- ence and driving ease, sfupmobile’s Century 8 and Century 6 models have made their debuts in Washington in their 1929 garb. Greater eye-appeal especially has been an objective of the Hupmobile designers and numerous changes have been made in both lines to achieve this desirable quality. In each of the new lines, as now presented, there are seven different body types. The group includes a four- door sedan, two-door sedan, four-pas- senger coupé, two-passenger cabriolet with rumble seat; four and five pas- eenger phaeton and a_ two-passenger roadster with rumble seat. In revising its cars, Hupmobile has adhered to its previous practice of con- sideging a harmonious blending of both body end chassis appearance. The result is a complete hiding of all mechanical parts, carried to the extent of covering both front and rear springs. The gas- Oline tank, of course, is fully co-ered by sheet metal as in the earlier models. Bumpers Are Redesigned. An example of the blending of the various units that make up the visual picture of the car is to be found in the redesign of the bumpers. These, in their new form, are an integral part of the car’s general effect. The new bumpers are increased in thickness and the outside face is made oval in shape. | 8” | spring. | coiled A curve at the extreme end of the bar is a detail change that has a marked effect upon the car’s generai ance.

Why is the motorist warned again and again not to do certain things which obviously should be avoided in the interest of safe motoring? These questions, rather querulously ask>d by motor car owners, are answer- ed by Rudolph Jose, local Cadillac dealer and Washington traffic authority wh> has -had intimate contact with motors and motorists for more than a quarter century. “Constant reiteration ored warnings needs no defense,” Mr. Jose declares. ‘All any motorist needs to do to understand this very pointedly for himself is to keep his eyes wide open on any drive on the open high- way. A 25-mile stretoh usually will be plenty ‘ong enough to convince the most skeptical and most cynical car owner that repeating the A B C’s of driving safety is absolutely essential. “Here is what the alert motorist will see on any average drive: “First, the observing car owner will be struck by the fact that even motor- lste who are extremely careful to give adequate signals when driving in city traffic will fail to do so on the road See how many drivers fail to put out a hand when slowing down, see how many nar-accidents occur because a signal of any kind failed to appear.

It has been reit- erated too often to count, and yet what which it seeks to teach learned, “Dangerous cutting tn and cutting out on the open alghway, when cars are traveling at rapid speeds and when misjudgment of distance may end in a most disastrous fashion, has been de- cried ad infinitum. To what effect? Certainly, the situation is improved over a few years ago, and yet no one by any stretch of the imagination could say that the average motorist has taken this warning to heart.” It is Mr. Jose’s contention by unceasingly hammering away at these fundamentals of good and safe driving can highway traffic conditions be brought to a really desirable point “It may be a little poring af times to read and hear shese warnings,” he says, “but no thoughtful motorist has been that only SUNDAY, AUGUST 5, 1928. en ee = HUPP OFFERS ITS CENTURY MODELS IN NEW GARB careful motorist will say that the lesson | ee Important as appearance is conceded to be, its effect upon different indi- viduals looking at the same motor car seems to be decidedly varied. With the large crop of summer models being augmented rap''ly along everybody's automobile row, and with body design representing the chief point of de- parture in almost every case, guessing “what it looks like” is developing into & great game among the interested spectators. Judging by the differences of opinion that this guessing contest reveals, it doesn’t look like the same thing very frequently. But it looks well to every one and that is entirely satisfactory to the manufacturer. as ~ > ad They advertise used cars in England this way: “20-60 horsepower, fitted with fabric saloon body, one-piece windscreen, Weymann locks, ventilators, beaded waistline, all silver plated, spe- cial bucket seats with arms on doors to allow free access, upholstery in washable brown leather, low built.” In case the motorist is curious to know what kind of a car is the subject for this ad, it happens to be a Buick. + * s . What shade upholstery? Many. motor car buyers do not realize that their especial color preferences may be satis- fied in so far as the car’s interior Is concerned as well as the exterior. Vir- tually every car maker is letting the buyer take his choice in this particular sphere. AS an example, there’s Elcar which offers five shades—-tan, dark blue, gray, dark green and dark ma- roon, ” ~ . The thought that auto springs are no different than those used on the ola stage coach is often expressed— sometimes by those who should know better. They may look somewhat the same but it is a far cry from the metals used in the stage coach spring to those that provide today’s motorist with comfort. o a « » Who ever thought of a jack as a re- placement part? Well, the Walker Jack Co., of Racine, Wis., did not so long ago and with some striking results. By the adoption of a neat merchandiz- ing plan, they taught the dealer to look into the jack equipment of the cars brought around for service. The brief looks that the dealer took showed that an amazing percentage of the jacks were inadequate, broken, and generally in need of replacement. It’s one de- vice for which there is no substitute. . - ° a Why is it that when one thinks of precision in the make-up of an auto- mobile that the inside of the tire valve does not come to mind at once? Con- trolling air is quite a problem—it is such an elusive substance. Yet, the Schrader people who make valve in- sides by the milllon have been eminent- Washington or anywhere else would want to dispense with them. That is so, because they realize that there is a great section of motordom that has failed to catch the spirit and the in- tent of them. To this group, these varnings simply are words, and nothing more. A glance at any typical plece of highway gives practical demonstration or this unfortunate, but accurate, statement. “Conditions by no means are irreme- diable. They can be improved, and mightily improved. “One of the best ways I know of to bring about this betterment is for a far greater number of motorists to regard the time-honored maxims of motordom as the sound results of years of experi- ence, rather than empty words uttered in| simply for the uttering.” —— ——-_- -— Looking Over the Cars Some of the Points You May Have Missed By FRANK J.

Establishment of an inter-American highway, running from Canada through the United States, Central America and the States of South America, was urged during the last week at a meeting here of the legislative committee ol the American Motorists Association. A resolution indorsed by the A. M. A. and other national motoring organiza- tions was adopted by Congtess on May 28, marking the first step in a plan to link the two continents by a gigantic highway. The resolution authorizes the De- partment of State and the National Highway Commission of the Depart- ment of Agriculture to gather data on the proposed undertaking, with an idea of submitting this country’s views to the Latin countries and Canada. The views are to be submitted at the Pan-American Congress of Highways, which will be held at Rio de Janeiro in July, 1929. The idea has already been indorsed by the sixth International Conference of American States, which recommend- ed, at its meeting in Havana last year, the consideration and adoption of agreements that will be conducive to the construction of such a highway. As a means of fostering the idea, 5,000 copies of the House resolution, printed in Spanish and Engilish, out- lining the project, are to be distrib- uted, the association announces, More than 1,000 copies are being mailed this month to Latin-American countries by the Pan-American Union. New Pumps Self-Priming. Motorists whose new cars are equipped with fuel pumps instead of the conventional vacuum tanks may have wondered what they would do in case they should run out of gas. The pump is self-priming in all cases. If the engine is turned over with the starter, gas will be drawn into the car- buretor just as in the case of the vacuum tank.

DLL LL OG LOLOL OOD LL Le TCL T CA A tC «ty tee ICE cee, . —_ INSURANCE NO~ EXCUSE Although statistics of automobile thefts show that thousands of cars are stolen during the year, many of them are taken because the owner failed to use the locking devices with which it was equipped, says George E. Keneipp, manager of the District of Columbia Division of the American Automobile Association. “There is no surer way to have a car stolen than to make everything 8O easy that all the thief has to do is to seat himself at the wheel, step on the starter and drive off,” points out Mr. Keneipp. “It is virtually an invi- tation to steal, and it is difficult enough for the police to cope with the activities of the professional automo- bile thief without deliberately putting oneself in his clutches. “No man who owns any other prop- erty worth one or two thousand dollars or more would be so careless of its safety. He would lock up the same amount invested in bonds or jewelry, yet there are many persons who leave a valuable automobile standing so that it may easily be stolen.” Too many motorists feel that their theft insurance provides all the pro- tection necessary, points out Mr. Keneipp. This, he declares, invites a loss for themselves and is unfair to the company which insures them. “Theft insurance should be carried by every motorist,” says Mr. Keneipp. “But his obligation does not end with obtaining it. He still should exercise reasonable protection of his property. To fail to do so is to bring about eventual monetary loss which is un- preventable. As a car depreciates, the amount which the owner may expect in the event of theft also decreases, so that replacing the car will entail an expense which can be avoided. “The number of stolen automobiles has undergone a reduction, traceable largely to the tightening up of law enforcement and the _ greater care shown by car owners. Enforcement of the law, however, can be nullified by negligence on the part of owners of motor cars. When they realize that leaving an unlocked car on the street is depriving it of virtually all protection, & still greater reduction in the num- ber of car thefts may be recorded.” Continuity of Driving Affects Gas Supply Estimating gasoline performance in advance of the long drive requires recognition of the fact that high speed is not economical from a fuel stand- point. The continuity of the drive in contrast with the average number of starts in normal travel may make up the difference. Again, it may not. The car owner who does not relish the pros- pect of running out of gas will keep this fact in mind. Damp Cloth Best in Cleaning. In removing grease from the body of the car with gasoline, there is a strong temptation to get the job done quickly by using a generous supply of the cleansing liquid. It should not be done. The cloth’ should be merely dampened, not wet, according to the best authorities on the subject. ger E. B. Frazier Motor Co. 518 10th St. N.E. G. B. Guthridge Winchester, Va.

a . PN ,are_ closed aN TU GHAYOLER NOTED IN NEW CAR DEBUT Product of Subsidiary Marked by Similar Appearance and Performance. PRICE OF STOCK MODELS TO BE WELL UNDER $900 Engine Has 55 Horsepower; Bodies, Pretty in Line, Are Unusually Roomy. Proclaiming its kinship to the Chrys- ler line in appearance, performance and driving ease, the new DeSoto six Manufactured by a subsidiary of the former corporation has entered the G@utomotive arena. A close-up of the new car which was announced nearly four months ago re- veals that its sponsors have adhered closely to the prevalent practice of the industry generally; a practice which looks toward the creation of a motor car that combines good appearance with mechanical efficiency and pro- ficiency at a price that reflects the productive genius of the motor car maker of 1928. Seven models comprise the line. Five and two are open styles. Although specific prices have not been announced for the various types, the standard body models will sell at “well under $900,” according to the manu- facturer. Lngine of 55 Horsepower, Although it departure from the form of modern engineering practice, the new DeSoto involves the adaptation of those fea- tures designed to assure fleetness, pow- er, good acceleration and deceleration, economy of operation and ease of driv- ing The six-cylinder engine, employ- ing the Silver Dome high compression head developed by the parent organiza- tion, is rated at 21.6 horsepower. Its brake horsepower, however, is in ex- cess of 55. Unlike the other six-cylinder cars engineered by Chrysler, the DeSoto does not use a seven-bearing crank- shaft. Instead, having four main bearings, rigidity and smoothness are sought through the adoption of an unusually heavy, short, carefully bal- anced crankshaft. Conforming to the _ service-proved practice of the present, the engine is lubricated by a pressure system which feeds oil to main, connecting rod and camshaft bearing surfaces. To make it more accessible, the oil pump on the DeSoto is located on the right side of the engine. An interesting feature of the power plant of the new car is the effort made to assure good volumetric efficiency. Extra large intake valves are employed to give the engine adequate fuel at high speeds. As in the case of the Chrysler line, the intake valves are of chrome nickel steel and the exhausts of silchrome, the latter to compensate for the higher operating temperature Of higher compression. represents no marked Crankcase Is Ventilated. Engine efficiency devices include the coliventional oil filter and air cleaner. The crankcase is ventilated to lessen the chances of corrosion. The characteristic low, fleet appear- ance of the parent products is man- ifest in the offspring and is perhaps the most emphatic point of similarity between the DeSoto and the various Chryslers, particularly the 65. The various bodies are large and roomy and in exterior appearance the first point to be noticed is the fineness of balance that extends from front to rear bump- ers The narrow radiator shell band which made its appearance several weeks ago in the new Chrysler products is incor- porated in the DeSoto with equally telling effect. The depth of the radi- ator is exaggerated by this treatment. An evidence of the excellent blending of line throughout the car ts to be found where hood and cowl meet in a band of chromium. While not orig- inal, this treatment is especially ef- fective as used by DeSoto. Fenders Symbolize Speed. The ‘“‘air-wing” fender introduced by Chrysler is another feature that con- tr:vutes to the appearance of fleetness which characterizes the DeSoto. Con- tributing also to this aspect of the car are the bowl type head and cow! lamps and the generous use of chrom- tum The interiors of the seven bo dy styl are inviting and fey “ee comfortable. The THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY. ‘AUGUST 5, 1928. "KINSHIP OF OF SOTO | [SEW DEsoTo Er Mechanic Says: Now that just about every car maker is using some kind of shock absorbin’ device, I notice a tendency among motorists to assume that their carg are goin’ to be comfortable regardless of the attention given to the springs. Be- cause some of them have made up their minds so firmly upon this point they can’t even see the gradual fallin’ off in ridin’ comfort that is happenin’ right under them. After all, the shock absorber is a sup- plemental device. Its job is to help out the springs If the springs are rusted, out of line due to looseness of the clips or U-bolts, or if the shackle bushin’s are worn, then the shock absorber Just doesn’t have so much to work on. The result is that neither the springs nor the shock absorbers are doin’ what they are capable of doin’. There’s only one safe way to look at springs; and that is that they do a tremendous amount of work—all of which is friction. Where there’s so much motion there’s a need for two things, the right kind of lubrication and perl-+ odic inspection to see that there’s no looseness. Paying no attention to the former results in rapid wear at the point of suspension and the latter is re- sponsible for a lot more broken spring leaves than reflects credit upon the motor car owner. The motorist must realize that there’s no substitute for proper attention to th car’s springs, shock absorbers or no shock absorbers. roominess of the various /odies 1s somewhat surprising in a car of the over-all dimensions of the DeSoto ly shaded mohair, are a feature of the closed cars. Interior hardware is satin- finished and among the meritorious features of the larger closed cars are leather vanity cases and ash receivers, Window blinds are standard on the larger cars. Doors of all the closed models are wide and on both doors and windows special provision is made to prevent drafts. Another step in this direction clutch pedals as well as near the gear is to be found around the brake and shift lever and emergency brake where draft plates are employed. Following the conventional practice, driving controls are located in the interest of the greatest possible driving ease. The hand throttle, horn and light controls are centered at the top of the steering post. An extra long gear shft lever reaches to within a few inches of the rim of the steering wheel. Chassis Rigidity Assured. Chassis construction obviously has tion in the design of the car. Frame rigidity is assured not only by the size of the various. members but also by the employment of four cross supports, The frame is freed from the possibility of having to absorb engine vibration by the use of rubber insulation at the points of motor suspension. Four- wheel hydraulic brakes are used. Self-adjusting sprine shackles, hy- draulic shock absorbers designed espe~- cially to work with the long, nicely balanced springs of the car, chrome steel transmission gears, a propeller shaft of seamless steel tubing, and small road wheels are other features of the, DeSoto that match older Chrysler products. On the whole, the DeSoto involves the appearance, performance, and other qualities that seem to prophesy for it a hearty welcome along auto- mobile row.

The lower they get cars, the more vital it is to know this little wrinkle of tire changing. It is a somewhat aged trick, but it still will prove entirely and easily workable. In 1927 installment sales of auto- mobiles were 61 per cent of the total business. In 1925 the time sales were 75 per cent. To prevent snow accumlation it its proposed to heat 6 miles of high Sierra Highway in Nevada by steam in winter. ——————— een INSTALLMENT PLAN BIG GROWTH FAGTUR IN AUTO INDUSTRY Marmon Sales Head Declares System Built on Sound Economic Basis. COST OF INDEBTEDNESS DISTRIBUTED BY METHOD Ce a 60 Per Cent of Total Cars Sold Reported Purchased on Credit. To the widespread growth of in- stallment buying is credited by H. H. Brooks, general sales director of the Marmon Motor Car Co., the notable expansion of the automobile. Were It not for the economically sound basis of installment buying of automobiles and the annual increase of purchases on the payment plan, the United States would have scarcely more than half its present total of 25,000,000 cars, says Mr. Brooks. Although condemned by a few as an unhealthy economic condition, he points out, the system of buying on installment payments is now regarded as one of the underlying factors in the growth and prosperity of America. This plan also has played a consider- able part in the attainment to first place in industrial importance by mo- tor car manufacture, it is stated. Time-Payment Plan. “In purchasing a car on payments,” declares Mr. Brooks, “the American citizen merely is taking ad- vantage of the same credit privileges that are enjoyed by the largest indus- tries and business houses. Credit, of course, is the very essence of businéss, and there is no reason why the op- portunity to exercise this fundamental institution should not be extended to the individual automobile buyer. By simply dividing his sum of indebted- ness into a certain number of equal deferred ee ee co a Piston Stroke Fixes Ratio of Compression Compression ratio ts a term be- ing bandied about quite frequently among motor car owners. Yet there are some who do not know precisely what it means. A terse definition establishes it as the ratio of maxti- mum to minimum cylinder volume. For instance, if the area above the piston at the top of ite stroke Is only one-sixth of the area when the piston is at the bottom, the ratio is 6 tol. That ts considerably higher than the average, which runs around 4.5 to 1. A parts, the purchaser is enabled to dis- tribute the burden of the cost in pro- portion to the receipt of his income— hence the term installment buying. “Purchasing of motor cars on the time-payment plan was instituted some ten years ago and has increased by leaps and bounds each year. Now, it is estimated that more than 60 per cent of the total automobile buyers make their purchases on the installment plan and, contrary to the belief of some, approximately one-third of the high- priced cars are sold by their system. In the medium-price field, the percentage of installment sales amounts to be- tween 55 and 60 per cent of the total. Auto Is Necessity. “Students of economics@an’ social life agree that the luxury of one age becomes the necessity of the next. The automobile, decidedly, has become a necessity and it its evident that the average American has learned to set aside a specified portion of his income for the purchase and operation of his motor car the same as for food, cloth- ing and other essentials. “It would be difficult to overestimate the favorable effects of quantity buying, made possible by the installment privi- lege, on the automobile industry. In- creased purchasing power has resulted in increased and stabilized production. Manufacturers have been able to offer greater values each year because they have been enabled to buy material in larger volume, to plan ahead, and to widen the scope of research and ex- perimentation. “Undoubtedly, there would be no motor industry as we know it today if it were not for the millions of dollars of individual credit that has been made available through the installment plan.” y a a ee ee ee MASTER ENGINEERS FIX SESSION DATES Six National Meetings Are to Include Several Dealing With Aviation. Topics of vitai importance to the automobile industry and to motordom as a whole will. be discussed at six na- tional meetings which have been sched- uled for the autumn and winter by the Society of Automotive Engineers. The programs for these meetings are now being arranged by the technical com- mittees. It is indicative of the tremendous interest in aviation that the aeronautic meeting will be held in three sections in as many cities. The Western aero- nautic meeting is to be held September 13 and 14 in Los Angeles, at the time of the national air races; a central aeronautic meeting is planned for De- cember 6 and 7 in Chicago at the time of the National Aircraft Show, and a third section of the aeronautic meet- ing will be held .n New York City dur- ing the National Automobile Show next January. An automotive transportation meet- ing to occupy three days is scheduled for October 17 to 19 at Newark, N. J. Developments and problems in mass transportation by motor truck, motor coach and rall car are to be discussed. At the production meeting, now be- ing arranged for November 22 and 23 at Detroit,. details of mass manufac- turing of vehicles and parts will be dealt with In addresses and discussion. The annual dinner, as usual, has been set for January 10 at New York City, during the week of the National Automobile Show. In the following week the four-day annual meeting will take place in Detroit. The dates are January 15 to 18. and a score or more addresses will be given on the most up-to-date re- search investigations, design innova- tions, improved o»rocesses and other developments in autcmotive engineer- ing. Wheel Lugs Will Work Loose. These mysterious squeaks and knocks that occur when turning corners or traveling over a rough road very fre- quently are no more than looseness in the lugs that hold the.rims on the wheels. They work loose, and periodic inspection will pay. They permit side to side play of the tire, which means wear. Registered motor vehicles in the United States last year traveled nearly 150,000,000,000 miles. ee ee LIGHTS INSTALLATION DECLARED OVERDONE Urban Communities Copying Big Cities Delay Traffic by Many Signals. One of the interesting points brought Out in Washington recently when the committees of the National Conference on Street and Highway Safety were here working on the final draft of the mode] municipal traffic ordinance was that while automatic signal lights are splen- did and irreplaceable factors in the scheme of safe and efficient traffic movement, their er ction has been over- done in some communities, particularly in the smaller ones. The automatic traffic light, adopted at first by large cities, quickly caught the imagination of small communities with metropolitan ideas, and signal lights began to appear at thousands of intersections where traffic conditions did not fully warrant their use. Ag a result, @ cumulative impression grew up that the lights were good only for delaying traffic. In addition, some cit- les placed lights at intersections in residential sections where they were not necessary, except possibly during rush hours, Furthermore, in various large centers the signal lights have been the subject of much experimentation. The syn- chronized system would be tried for a while. Then the block system would be applied. The motorist was kept busy trying to keep up with the lights. There is a great need for uniformity in the use of the lights in different cities, ad- vocates of such a traffic control method maintain. It is such varied uses of the lights that are held to be abuses which do not reflect upon the potential merit of the system itself. Perhaps it is true that many smal) cities could abandon their signal lighte and that they could be cut out in some residential sections of the larger cities. but where would New York, Chicago Philadelphia, Washington and othe? cities’ traffic be without the red and green beacons? Be Generous, It Pays. It is a mistake to repair a puncture with a small patch, as many motorists have discovered. Care, therefore. should be exercised in cutting the patch to see that it is more than am- ple. It is far better to err on the side of too much than too little, although through indifference, the average map frequently makes the latter error. ; nT : ra : | A AO POMS Bese bs ban eee pereyees ‘+ ‘ ; d ; bese. . ° - ee ee "tS oTte 35 sere tpie shores tprssshe— aes cokes eae bares ree Resets popapta big bs oar hes beasts eta Batite, titi ssist 95 sab it: Sib Soest Sete rise rsrentee sshegs stezs as 3 eS eS Oe See Le _— * oR: tere ee oo m|srs Zz . is Matt ie S emery Ts: $3: : it t i. tT; 7% 2s re si + o — b= s- Lye 7 : i be $4 tieite bh Stet oes - > > ; 3-3> 2223382 . +t G . $3o3eees ee : . r4 > 7 ° > 23; - - Pa x : .

Krom Our Former Location — SERVICE True or Honest Service in the motor car business 1s as nearly as possible continuous satisfactory operation at a minimum PROGRESS Inasmuch as the opening of the spacious new home of the Hup- mobile here is coincident with the anniversary of the appoint- ment of Mott Motors, Inc., as distributor for the Hupmobile, it is but fitting that a word be said of the impressive progress that has been made here and of the man and the organization that has made the progress possible. Thomas T. Mott, the President ard active executive of Mott Motors, Ine., is a man whose career as an executive and an engineer has paralleled that of the outstanding figures of the automobile industry. Beginning practically when the industry began, he has been allied with many of the successes of the motor age and may be counted a distinct success as the head of his $+S 5542 expense. Convinced that service is the most abused term in the business, and that the poorer the car the harder the salesman works to give the impression of something for nothing; I want to define the FIVE FACTS of Mott Motors’ Hupmobile Service: 1. Our service starts before you buy the car. It’s in the material, workmanship, finish and appearance. That’s a part of the car when it’s made at the factory. We sell you the PHOOL> Sl SOOSD 5. As we all know, regardless of how good the ¢ar is, car own- ers will have accidents or parts will wear out. I have provided an efficient repair shop, with all the conveniences of modern ooo 2 > equipment and special HUP- MOBILE HIGH SPEED FAC- TORY TOOLS. best automobile of its class in the world, the Hupmobile Cen- tury Six or Hight, noted for : eae 4, We employ only the most fine design and construction. skilled Hupmobile mechanics with five or more years expe- own business alliances over a period of eighteen years. He isa practical man with a keen insight as to the demands of the indus- try and the automobile owner, and it is this insight which has enabled him to surround himself with an organization which shall leave nothing undone in rendering service to Hupmobile owners and shall be in keeping with his high principles of merchandis- ing and with the excellency of the Hupmobile. ”?. The next step in our Service is the courtesy given the buyer at the time he negotiates the purchase, and so long there- after as he owns the car. No effort or expense has been spared in giving, in the new home of Hupmobile, the utmost in efficiency both in equipment and organization. | The most centrally located point in the city is selected for the better accommodation of the motoring public; every detail has been perfected with the highest standard of service as the aim. The apparently simple detail of locating the service entrance on a light traffic street is but one of the mass of details handled with the car owners’ convenience as the paramount issue. Mod- ern high speed factory tools are installed with this same thought and so on through this great establishment one finds the vari- ous departments functioning with the same principle. Needless to say, the building of such a plant is not inspired by a fancy or a desire for pretentious appearances. : Hupmobile business, showing an increase of 109% over any pre- yg vious period of the company’s history in the District of Columbia, has made this new home of Hupmobile a necessity. Thomas T. Mott has taken this necessity as the occasion for the building of this admirable establishment. , rience. The motto in our shop is “Do it well, as quickly as pos- sible without wasting effort or material, and at the lowest pos- sible cost to the car owner.” BOSS 33S% S93 3S3 SSO SOSD o. Very often SERVICE is simply a matter of getting the parts. We carry one of the largest, most complete stocks of Hupmobile parts in the United States, and no Hupmobile need ever be held up for lack of service, material or ample housing space. As a fur- ther protection, all cars are under cover while in our care.

& ee ~ THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY. AUGUST 5, 1928. ae ee REPUTATION A Tremendous Story of the Battle of Character Against Reputation By ANNE GARDNER WHAT HAS GONE BEFORE. ¢ April Low, movie star, who is known to he world as Narya. a supposedly wicked reson, has found a childhood playmate in erard Wellman, the composer, who ts doing “iy music for her latest picture. Harry does ril, learn- im. She Thomas her happiness. a of April’s leads Thomas to believe mistakenly, that part of April’s reputation is deserved and as April goes to her room, Bases wages a desperate fight with him- CHAPTER XXX. The Shots in the Dark. HOMAS opened a beautiful pan- eled door and showed April into an exquisite bedroom, which he explained was connected with Harry’s y the bath, so that if he needed anything she would. be able to hear him. He himself, he said, would sleep in a little room off the library. She would find him there if anything nap- pened “Now, let’s see if we can’t make you comfortable,” he said, and a little Shamefacedly took from the bureau drawer a filmy silk nightgown. and from a closet a floating cloud of white Which proved to be a negligee. “This is a fine desert island for a lady to be shipwrecked on, I perceive,” April Said, smiling at him. He found towels for her, indicated a | dressing table on which an array of cut-glass bottles contained everything in the way of creams that the most fas- tidious lady could wish, told her not to hesitate to call him if she needed him to help with Harry, and said good night. What a man, April thought for the hundredth time, as she slipped out of her clothes and into the clinging night- £Oown. A roue, heartless, cynical, and yet the one man in the world in whose house she would have dared to spend the night, the finest. dearest friend in all the world. She was thinking that happily as she dropped off to sleep. She might not have surrendered so trustfully to drowsiness if she had known the battle her host was fight- ing with himself because of her pres- ence in his house. Thomas had taken off his clothes in Harry’s room, donned pajamas and over hem a dressing gown, and gone right- ly enough to the room off his study. But not to sleep. His mind went over and over April’s Onfession. April, in her desire to be ompletely honest, had misled him as to he nature of her relations with Thurs- On. When she said she had loved him, © Thomas it meant that she was not he virgin he had been worshiping hese months, but an erring woman fter all. The gentleman in him urged hat she was just as fine and brave as © had thought her. But that other, he Del Thomas April had always voided, suspected that she had given herself once and that she would again. For Del Thomas, only two types of woman existed, good women and bad women. For the former he had more everence, perhaps, than a better man might have. For the latter—what Nuarter did they deserve? Until to- another crack, another flame. Out of the darkness a sudden crack, a little spitting flame, The kneeling man let go his hold and slipped slowly to the floor. He shook Thomas again, the figure responding with a terrible limpness. “Can't you say something? ‘Splain or something?” The head dropped back. an explanation of horror. Over the breast there was a red stain. Harry made as if to touch it, dregv back. final- ly gained courage and put his hand over the heart, where the red was. Then he dropped the figure and struggled blindly to his feet April had watched, paralyzed. This was indeed a fitting exploit for the bronze girl, that she should have made her brother a murderer! The accusing face of her mother swam before her. She forced that back, moved by the urgent need for action. She must help Harry to get away. She was starting out from behind the curtain when a scraping sound made her halt and stiffen. There was a tiny rustle, then silence. April be- lieved the sound came from a balcony, just outside the French window by which she was standing. She strained her ears, trying to fathom who might be out there, and while she stood thus, Harry regained the door of the bath- room and stumbled through it, turn- ing off the lights behind him. She took a few steps after him, stopped in indecision. She must Investigate that noise on the balcony. Had some in- truder witmessed the shooting? It would be best to know the worst quickly.

Now she re to Thomas where he lay beneath the little lamp as if searched out with a spotlight, since the overhead lights had been snapped off. She sank on the floor beside him and took his head on her lap. “Del,” she whispered to him, Then his name again, more urgently. He lay limp and still. Only the stain on his bosom grew slowly larger. April comprehended that he was quite dead, and she begantosob. “Del, what have I done to you, what have I done? Del, I did love you, but not that way. I would have given my life for you—can you understand me, Del?” How long she stayed there she could not have guessed. She was brought out of it by a sudden, startling knock- ing somewhere in the night. April. stopped crying to listen. It came again, clear, decisive. What did it remind her of? She knew. The knocking at the door in Macbeth. She and Del had been read- ing it together, not long ago. He had explained to her the deadly, dramatic force of those measured knocks, strik- ing the guilty consciences of the mur- derers. Knock, knock! ; It was on an outside door. She tried to place it more closely, as if a great deal depended upon that. Knock, knock! Very impatiently. The newcomer was at the door on the other side of the house, just off the library. She established that fact without connecting it in any way with her pres- ent situation. Knock! One tremendous, final burst, and then the sound of footsteps going away from the door, around the house. Into April’s mind percolated the im- portance of this. The intruder, if he were determined to make an entrance, and instinct told her that he was, would now go around the house and try the front door, which commanded the hall to the suite of rooms where the tragedy had taken place. Logic told April that the man was a policeman who had heard the shots and would not go away without an ex- planation. If he came in, he would trap Harry with the blood of his victim EE CRE EERE CEE A LOT CRE ER RE I TNE OS Truck Driver I believe Champion is the better spark plug because of the way Champions stand up in hard truck service.

I am going to lead him off the other way. You must get all your clothes at once and walt till you hear him go away from the door. Then go out the front door and get home as quickly as you can. Do you under- stand?” Harry groaned “Understand, you must do as I say or they'll hang you!” putting all the menace she could into her tone so as to rouse him to the peril of his situation and get him to act. “Hang me!” he muttered stupidly, but began fumbling for his coat, which hung on a chair near the bed with his hat and topcoat. April ran back to the room where Thomas lay, ready to attempt the most desperate part of her plan. She would attract the attention of the man at the door so that he would pursue her, giving Harry his chance to escape. She would elude him if she could. If he caught her, she would confess to the murder of DeLain Thomas. Through the French doors on the little balcony The flowing negligee would hamper her, but it would also serve to make her a better target at the start of the race. So she caught it up around her, fastening it as best she could.

Vacation Activities. June, July and August offer unusual opportunity for families to do things together in the out-of-doors. Space is too limited to suggest many activities. Those of us who stay at home might get acquainted with the hundreds of insect guests in our gardens, or with @ family of birds that may be nesting nearby, or it may be that some of the children are acquiring new wild pets— Snakes and chipmunks. Perhaps we are going to the shore where we can get acquainted with the crabs and star- fish, the shells, skate eggs and (at not too close range) the jellyfish. But there is one idea we can all re- member—good manners out-of-doors. Let us (1) clean up after our picnics, making sure that we leave the place clean with all our fires completely out. (2) Refrain from trespassing. (3) Re- frain from promiscuous picking of flowers and -shrubs. During the summer much material Can be collected as grasses and sedges, wheat, rye, barley, oats, milkweed pods and many other wild and garden fruits, nuts of all kinds, also mosses, lichens and fungi, and common minerals. At the sea _ shore, shells, starfish, sea urchins, seaweeds, pebbles. Children can be easily interested in collecting anything from out-of-doors that can be dried and will keep.—New York Parent-Teacher. Vacation Bible School. Mrs. Wallace Perry, president of the John Burroughs Parent-Teacher Asso- ciation, is in charge of the dally vaca- tion Bible school at Sherwood Presby- terian Church. The school is divided into primary and junior groups. The children held an exhibition and sale of some of their work at the Sunday school hall recently. Many interested friends and parents gathered to ad- mire the fruits of the summer’s work. Mrs, Perry is president of one of the largest local associations in the District of «Columbia, as well as an active worker in the Girl Scouts. National Convention. Mrs. William H. Rowe, State con- vention chairman of the District of Columbia Congress of Parents and ‘Teachers, has made the following re- port on the recent national convention in Cleveland, to which she was a delegate: “One of the many important points of interest brought to our attention, both in general sessions and classes, at the recent convention of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers held in Cleveland, Ohio, and which seemed to be a great concern of the hour, was the need of well informed and .trained membership and leadership. “I did not take it that any inference was made to our lack of such, but rather to bring to us the great necessity of our continuing to keep well in- formed by constantly studying this ever-growing educational movement, for it has been wisely said that when we cease to learn we cease to be educated. “Several references were given us by means of which we maintain a high standard of informed membership and | visit her aunt, Mrs. Samuel Espy, at Logansport, Ind., before going on to her mother’s in Missouri, Message From President. Mrs. S. M. N. Marrs, newly elected president of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers, sends a chal- lenge to each individual parent-teacher member through her message in the latest number of Child Welfare Mag- azine. The message follows: “The thirty-second annual conven- tion of the National Congress of Par- ents and Teachers has passed into his- tory. It was unanimously voted a great convention. The program had been well planned and was carried out in a splendid way. The addresses were inspiring and thought provoking, the classes, conferences and round tables were most stimulating, the dinners, luncheons. and social events contrib- uted much to the success of the meet- ing. The vesper service set in motion a fine spiritual feeling that permeated the whole convention; in fact, every day throughout the entire week was filled to overflowing with opportunities for social, mental and spiritual refresh- ment, and no doubt the delegates went away .eeling completely saturated with congress ideas and with a high devotion to its ideals. “But in th: final analysis, what was the real message of the convention? In what way did we set forth our ideals, our principles and our pro- gram? How did we express the find- ings of the week’s deliberation? Platform Formulated. “As an organization, we made a very definite expression of ourselves. We stated our creed. W: formulated our platform. After long and careful con- sideration on the part of the commit- tee of twelve members representing all parts of the country, appointed for the purpose, and by a well-considered and thoughtful vote of our delegates we expressed our message to our State branches and local associations. We made a serious formulation of the com- ing year’s business—the work and duty of each and every member of our great organization—the largest body of or- ganized educators in the world, This assignment of our tasks for the com- ing year is to be found in the set of resolutions so seriously and thought- fully considered and adopted at the last afternoon session of our conven- tion, “The big question now is, What are we going to do with our platform? This platform is the statement of the specific purposes we have set before ourselves—the distinct instructions we have prepared and issued to our offi- cers and members. Surely we can not leave these resolutions where we adopt- ed them and treat them as a bare for- mality, a mere group of statements. “What we should no is to make them the basis for a year’s program of study and activity. If all our State branches and local units will do this, what a unifying of our work will result! Seven Cardinal Objectives. The preamble of our resolutions car- ries the following fine and definite statement: “The National Congress of Parents and Teachers delclares its abiding faith in the home and the school and ac- cepts as its permanent platform the seven cardinal objectives of education— worthy home membership, health, mastery of tools and technics and spirit of learning, vocational and eco- nomic effectiveness, faithful citizen- ship, wise use of leisure, and ethical character. “Here is a wide field, divided and charted with phrases already familiar to most of us. Grouped underneath these big, broad heads are the very Magazine, official publication of the | National Congress of Parents and Teach- ers, which furnishes a wealth of tin- formation for the finest kind of help ‘in both the home and school; State bulletin, through which a _e general knowledge of local activities may be obtained, and local and school papers. In addition to these, members were mc t earnestly urged to attend parent- teacher and public institutes whenever an opportunity afforded. “As a thorough knowledge of what the organization stands for is necessary to make a well informed membership, let us review the ideals and purposes of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers as published in the con- vention news of May 4, keeping in mind that these are also the standards and objects of our own local organiza- tion: Worthy Home Membership. “The congress calls upon its mem- bers and other educational workers and citizens to support measures for the improvement of the home and to safeguard family life with suitable in- struction for parenthood and home- making. It believes that the ideal home should be economically sound, mechanically convenient, mentally stimulating, artistically satisfying, so- cially responsible, spiritually inspiring, founded on mutual affecton and re- spect a place of unselfish love and service. Health. “The congress favors the develop- ment of a program of health education which will guarantee to every child freedom from remediable defects and which will establish right habits atti- tudes, and ideals of physical and men- tal health. Mastery of Tools. “The congress favors all worthy movements for the improvement and generous support of schools, libraries, museums, art galleries and other edu- cational agencies. Vocational Effectiveness. ‘“The congress favors such a program of vocational guidance and education as will enable all youth to find the occupation in life for which they are best adapted and which enable them to make their largest contribution to the social welfare. Faithful Citizenship. “The congress believes that children should be given full opportunity, for experience in the duties and privileges of citizenship in home, school and community life. “It believes that war between nations as a settlement of international dis- putes is a crime against civilization. “It would build into the lives of children such ideals of justice, good will and cooperation as will remove the causes of war and lead to universal peace. Wise Use of Leisure. “The congress would bring into every life such habits in the use of leisure as will insure permanent satisfaction through nature, creative activity, com- panionship, art, music, healthful exer- cise and wholesome reading. | Ethical Character. “The congress recognizes the develop- ment of fine character as the supreme end of education and of life. “T should like to leave this with you by which each may determine the need of following the suggestions given, if you would have your own association @ progressive one, as it most certainly should be. | “What kind of a club would this club be, If every member was just like me?” On Motor Trip. ‘Mrs. Suzanne W. Rauscher, chairman of Child Welfarg Magazine of the Dis- trict of Columifia Congress of Parents | concrete jobs we have assigned to our- selves. With the beginning of the new Official year, let us start upor the defi- nite work of realizing these self-given orders—these sane and sensible duties which we have deliberately placed at our own hands. Let every resolution be regarded as a pledge on the part of the individual member to carry the will of the organization into effect. In @ spirit of high devotion and whole- hearted cooperation, we can this year go a long way toward doing the great work that lies before us.” Parental Education. Many of the round tables at the Con- vention of the National Congress of Parents and Teachers had a bearing on the one which was called Parental Edu- cation. Among the authorities who came to make their contributions to this important subject were Dr. W. E. Blatz; Dr. Garry C. Myers, and Dr. Douglas A. Thom, who was for two years chairman of the committee on Mental Hygiene. As most of the Congress mem- bers are parents, they come in large numbers when parents’ problems are discussed. And so far as possible their questions are answered. The “potter and his clay” method of dealing with the child has gone quite out of fash- ion, for Dr. Thom recommended to parents the more rational method which the gardener uses in tending uw plant. It was stimulating to learn that at Cleveland College there is a Division of Parental Education which offers twelve courses on art, home economics, physiology, hygiene, psychology and psychiatry as they apply to problems of parenthood. The students taking this course are chiefly fathers and mothers and constitute the largest class of parents in the world pursuing standard college courses devoted en- tirely to the needs of parents. Dr. Garry C. Myers is the director of the divi- sion, Announcement. The United States Bureau of Educa- tion announces new and revised courses on a variety of subjects for reading or study. An attempt will be made to provide, as promptly as possible, addi- tional reading courses on these or other subjects whenever ‘there is sufficient demand. Many persons have signified their de- sire to read or study under guidance. This service has been made possible in several States by universities or col- leges agreeing to conduct the courses and to issue certificates for reading or study achievement. Detailed informa- tion concerning this service may be obtained upon application to the near- est university or college or to any in- stitution in the State which has adopted or is willing to adopt and sub- scribe to the extension program pro- mulgated by the National University Extension Association. Address R. R. Price, extension director, University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Mian. The Bureau of Education does not furnish the books listed in its courses. If they are not obtainable from a local, county, or State library, it will be nec- essary to buy them.

The American uni- versity, as more than once we have been told in cold editorial type, bends to the breaking point under the ma- terialism of our age. We are lacking in the time, the patience, the atmos- phere of scholarship. “And to me it seems that the over- emphatic cautioning against ‘high- browism;’ inculcated in our young people by academic elders who bestir themseives in the Boeotian movement against ‘old-fashioned culture’ and are setting the example of protective adap- tation to extraneous standards,” has been directly hurtful to the collegiate spirit, and thereby indirectly to the social weal. The premature commix- ture of scholarly ambitions with athoughts of business yields no elixir of life; it merely conduces to a shallow and colorless outlook on life during that tormative period when ascendency should be secured.for the high pitch and tonality of character. Need we really all be ‘standardized?’ And if so, be not sufficient unto the day the evil thereof? The money-maker may not, in the long run, represent the beau ideal of the Nation. 7 * . * “So contagious has been the out- sider’s impatience to fashion the form and substance of learning to suit his own crude and dogmatic valuation of the goods of life that the academic household is sorely divided against sf t RENN ae } > +a Bra Muay ainsn ive | : ft i! » > |; ae a a, ‘ity Wd * ‘LAT ” CANES Brys. tek .

’ } — } | ey a ee — ee — WASHINGTON: SUNDAY, AUGUST —, 1928, ‘Ihe WASHINGTON REALTOR REALTORS ANNOUNCE WARD OF ANOTHER BOARD CERTIFICATE Granted to Eddystone Homes Cooperative Development on Chicago Harbor. POLICIES OF BUREAU _ NEW TYPE OF SERVICE Created to Protect Investors, It Also Prevents Many Mistakes of Past. The consultation bureau recently established by the National Association of Real Estate Boards to pass upon the general soundness of cooperative build- ing projects has issued its second cer- titicate of approval. The second certificate gives the bureau’s approval to the Eddystone Homes cooperative development, to be constructed by Albert W. Swayne on Melrose avenue near Sheridan road, Chicago, overlooking the Belmont Yacht Harbor and Lincoln Park. The project thus certified is a $2,000,- 000,000 structure with 84 apartments. It is planned as one unit of a projected structure to contain some 284 apart- ments. The work of the bureau is a new type of service by a business associa- tion. It has been created to protect the comparatively new field of coop- erative apartment development against mistakes on the part of novice devel- opers and exploitation by unscrupulous operators. The complexity of the legal structure upon which ownership of a cooperative apartment unit depends, and the im- portance of the financing plan in ef- fecting the success of the enterprise, In particular, make it desirable to set up | some machinery which would enabhie| the prospective buyer of a cooperative | apartment unit to know that the | project into which he Is buying has | been soundly conceived and carried out, | officers of the division point out. Means General Approval. Through the new bureau individual! | real estate projects, if they meet In ail | respects the standards set up by the association, will be certified to the gen- eral public as sound by the official group representing the entire business | of real estate in that particular field. A committee from the division’s list of approved consultants, all nationally recognized as successful specialists in the cooperative apartment field, will go over the entire set-up of any project submitted to the bureau, and give the developing company the benefit of their advice as to any changes that would be advisable either to add to the effi- ciency of the structure or to the buy- er's protection. The committee advises on: location; architectural plan; financial structure, legal structure, including by-laws of the corporation to be established, and stock certificate; operating plan, and selling plan. Sitting with the consulting commit- tee are an architect familiar with the peculiar possibilities of tenant-owned apartment structures and an attorney familiar with the legal forms upon which tenant ownership depends. Milton M. Morse, Chicago, was chair- man of the committee representing the cooperative apartment division of the National Association of Real Estate Boards in its consultation service on the Eddystone homes project. Other members of the committee were Frank J. O’Brien, Chicago, and Irvin A. Blietz, Chicago. The certificate is further signed by R. Bates Warren, Washington, D. C., chair- man of the division; Nathan William MacChesney, of Chicago, general coun- sel of the association, consulting attor- ney to the committee; McNally & Quinn, Chicago, by F. M. McNally, con- sulting architects to the committee, and H. Morton Bodfish, Chicago, sec- retary of-:the consultation bureau. For Use in Advertising. The certificate, which the developer is permitted to use in all of his ad- vertising, but which if hs uses he must reproduce in full, attests that the plan and specifications for the structure are well conceived in view of the location and the type of accommodations they are designed to afford; that the distri- bution of stock among the various apartments is fair and equitable; that the mortgage financing, including the principal payments thereon, is sound and workable if carried forward as de- scribed; that the proposed plan of op- erating the building when it shall have been completely sold is one which can be used successfully, and that the by- laws and other legal forms employed meet in general with the standards in- dicated by the forms prepared under the direction of the cooperative apart- ment division of the National Associ- ation of Real Estate Boards. The certificate issued by the com- mittee is a preconstruction certificate. A final certificate will be issued when the building is completed, providing, of course, that the completion follows the plan as passed upon and approved by the bureau. Albert W. Swayne, whose projected Eddystone Homes development is given the consultation bureau’s second certi- ficate, is a member of the executive committee of the cooperative apart- ment division and was chairman of the division during the first three years of its existence.. . The first certificate to be issued by the bureau, dated July 10, was given to ' the Park Gables Building, erected by the Gubbins, McDonnell & Blietz or- ganization, of Chicago. - The service of the consultation bu- reau is open to any person or firm about to develop a cooperative build- ing project, whether or not that per- son or firm is a member of the national association or of its cooperative apart- ment division. : Tax Reform to Be Topic.

An extended building boom such as the one which we are now enjoying depends upon low costs of money, ma- tertals and labor, and is not bhrougnt to an end until these costs begin to mount up to a point where investors decide to hold off. While it is probable that money will ease in the fall. con- tracts are expected to decrease until) then The volume of contracts awarded to date insures a high level of construc- tion actually under way for some time to come, but. a drop in contracts will reduce this construction as the year ends. Contracts awarded and contem- plated building in the first six months of 1928 broke all previous records by a wide margin. The total dollar volume of contracts awarded so far this year is 8 per cent above the 1927 total for the same pe- con and 75,000 visitors were accommodated. , | This is Home Exposition to} held | | equipment figures WASHINGTON SIXTH AMONG US, CITIES WWHOTEL FACILITIES Accommodations for Visitors Represent Investment of $45,000,000. 20,000 ARE SHELTERED HERE AT EASTERTIDE $1,250,000 Structure Planned on Site of Old Hudson in H Street. By MALCOLM G. DOUGLAS. Real Estate Editor. While the fact may not be generally known, it is recognized among hotel men that Washingtor ranks sixth in hotel accommodations in cities throughout the United States. This estimate is regarded as extremely con-~ servative, many contending the Na- tlonal Capital should be fifth, ranking above Kansas City. The other four leading cities are New York, Chicago, San Francisco and Los Angeles. Not only is Washington adequately equipped to care for tourists and trave elers, but the commercial and aparte- ment hotels are computed to have @ total investment nere in property and of approximately $45,000,- 000, according te figures of Laurence Mills, secretary of the Hotel Associa-~ tion of the District of Columbia.

It is estimated tnat the commercial apartment noreis of the larger type have a toval im excess of "8/100 rooms, and normally accommodate 12,000 to 18,000 v.sitors, depending upon the time of the year During the Easter period the hostelries generally care for approximately 20,000 guests. The larger hotels eaiploy some 6,100 persons. : In his computation of leading hotel cities, Mr. Mills did not include such cities as Atlantic City, Long Beach, Palm Beach and other places, these cities. His estimate was for commercial and tourist cities. Washington is regarded as a good ho- real estate. And as Washington grows and more people from other cities are in | attracted here, new hotel structures will be erected from time to time. An- nouncement has already been made of a new structure to rise twelve stori2s on the site of the old Hudson Hotel at 1329 Street northwest. to the maximum height of 130 feet, at an estimated cost Of $1,250,000 The building wil) be provided with such modern features as & promenade on the roof deck, at the setback above the tenth floor on the 110-foot level, and a 75-foot swimming pool on the main floor. Other large buildings are projected for the down- town section in the near future, plans for which are to be announced later.

In a communication to the national com- mittee on wood utilization of the De- partment of Commerce, Mr. Wallenberg strongly supported the system of mark- ing every plece of lumber with a symbol indicative of its grade or quality. Mr. Wallenberg’s statement is backed by many years’ experience in the Swedish lumber business. He is one of the largest producers of forest products in Europe and one of his firms was founded in 1225. “From my experience, the marking of Swedish lumber has been the backbone of the industry because consumers of Swedish lumber, in prac- tically every country of the world, know Colonial farmhouse-type home of brick construction, containing cight rooms, three baths and lavatory, with two-car garage, located at 4517 Hawthorne street, Wesley Heights, recently purchased by Yelverton KE.

Smedley Butler, com- manding American marines in China, has been directed to select the offi- cers and enlisted men of his command to be sent to the United States under orders recently issued for reduction of the force, and to cable the names of the officers selected to the headquar- ters Of the Marine Gorps. As deter- mination of the particular officers to be sent home requires consideration of many factors, it is expected that it a be some time before the lists ar- rive. Maj. Randolph Coyle, who some weeks ago was transferred from ma- rine barracks, this city, to duty with the First Brigade of Marines in Haiti, has been ordered transferred on Sep- tember 15 from duty with that brigade to duty with gendarmerie d’Haiti., Capt.

Players should fix in their minds the fact that suit-bids and No ‘lTrumpers are measured by diilerent yardsticks.

There is no one system of count that can be dependably used for determining whether to bid either a suit or a No Trump, and any one who at- tempts to use the same count for both purposes will find that it works ineffec- tively in one case or the other—possibly in both. The same cards distributed in one way might be of greater value for a No Trump than for a suit; in another distribution the reverse might be true. Take these four holdings: Nos. 1 and 3 would be of much great- er value than Nos. 2 and 4 for a bid of another suit or for assisting partner’s bid of another suit; but Nos. 2 and 4 would be much more dependable than Nos. 1 and 3 for bidding No Trump or assisting (in Contract Bridge Jumping) partner’s No Trump. Many such in- stances could be cited. But to return to the subject of quick tricks and 1-2-3-4 counts which do not furnish their respective bids, and to take two illustrative examples. No. 5 has two quick tricks, but neither the Diamond nor the Club suit could be bid on account of its short- ness; no suit is biddable when it has less than four cards.

By FRANKLIN G. SARTWELL O fleeting is fame that in the few short years in which the science of aeronautics has reached its present perfection, tHe first attempt of man to fly across the Atlantic Ocean, made 55 years ago, has been almost entirely crowded from memory. Those living in the twentieth century are prone to believe that prior to 1900 there was little pioneering in the field of flying and scarcely any realize that within a decade after the Civil War an organized and de- termined effort was underway to fly through the skies over the Atlantic Ocean from this continent to Europe. | This attempt, made by three hardy ad- venturers after lengthy and complicated preparations, was the forerunner of the feat accomplished first in 1919, when the United States Navy succeeded, more or less, in send- ing three flying boats across the great ex- panse of water. Washington H. Donaldson, George Ashton Lunt and Alfred Ford are the real pioneers of transatlantic flying, for it was this trio that on the morning of October 6, 1873, set out in a balloon from Brooklyn, N. Y., in an attempt to fly to Europe. Theirs was the first take-off from land on this continent that was intended to start a flight which it was hoped would not end until the fliers landed in Europe. There are many parallels between this first flight and those which have recently stirred the world. There are many things in the history of the first attempt which are made ludicrous by the experiences of later flights, but the story of the first attempt is a tale fully as gripping as those of the score of flights made in the last decade. The flight, which was finally made by Donaldson and his companions in 1873, had its inception many years prior to that in the mind of Prof. John Wise, one of the famous balloonists of his day. The professor, who in his lifetime made more than 400 balloon ascensions, was convinced that at an altitude of about one mile there was a steady current of air, blowing from west to east.

The chief signal officer said that he would not order any member of the corps to zo on t’9 trip as an observer as the project we too hazardous, but that if any one wanted to volunteer he would be granted leave. About members of the corps subse- quently sought permission to make the flight, but the signal corps had a change of heart and in the end declined any of its men permis- sion to go in the balloon. twenty Scores of applica- Imbued with this idea, the balloonist, in 18438, petitioned Congress for an appropri- ation to defray the expenses of such a trip. The memorial was presented by Stephen A. Douglas, then senator from Illinois. It was referred to the naval committee, and there, despite the urgent pleas of the “Little Giant,” it died. Four times Wise presented his petition, but never was he able to obtain the assistance sought. * * 2 a N 1871, another daring balloonist, famous for his gymnastic feats on a trapeze suspended from a gas bag, determined to make a transatlantic flight. This was Donald- son, and he and Wise formed a partnership to further the project. Wise, in the meantime, had been seeking the aid of the City of Boston in the venture, and he and Donaldson united in a petition to that city which was received with consider- able favor. It did not meet with success, however, and was renewed in 1872. In that year the board of aldermen appropriated $3,000, which Wise and Donaldson believed weuld pay the bill. Before this action of the aldermen could be concurred in by the com- mon council, a disastrous fire swept over the city, and in the consequent retrenchment the hopes of the balloonists were shattered. The balloonists went to New York and there interested in their project James H. Goodsell and C. N. Goodsell, managers of the Daily Graphic, then one of the most enter- prising of New York journals, but now de- funct. The Goodsells and the balloonists on June 27, 1873, entered intc a formal contract under which the Goodsells were to pay for the construction of a balloon ‘‘not less than 130 feet in height and 100 feet in diameter,” _ fully equipped with safety devises, ropes, car % and gallery. Donaldson and Wise agreed to superintend the construction of the balloon, and upon its completion “directly and with- out any delay or evasion, seek the elevation 4 of the eastern air current there to remain un- til land shall have been made on the eastern side of the Atlantic Ocean.” _ Work of construction of the immense bag, larger than any ever before put together, be- gan on June 28, and it was announced that everything would be in readiness for the fligh’ on August 20.

Many of the papers attempted to laugh the project to scorn, while others held it up as a great scientific proposal which would be of immense benefit to the trans- portation world.

While the controversy saged Donaldson, Wise andthe Goodsells went steadily ahead with the work of construction. Original plans called for a pilot or tender balloon of small size to serve as a sort of guide, or repair shop, for the giant gas sack. The smaller balloon: was later abandoned, and it was decided to. use only the main bag. Suspended from this was to be a car made of wood and rope work which could be inclosed in canvas in case of inclement weather. As a _ precaution against landing in the ocean a stanch life- boat was to be carried slung from the car. Affixed to the car was a smaller boat, a canoe made of paper, capable of carrying one per- son which was to be used in the event that the balloon lightened of the weight of the car, the boat and all of its occupants but one, should be able to take the air again from the ocean’s surface and rise with a prospect of still reaching Europe. GORE X Ci MES Army Signal Corps was approached on “the matter and agreed to supply a case of tions from private citizens to make the trip were received, but in the end the promoters declined all of the applications, although Wise, while still connected with the flight had clandestinely agreed to let a man from Gos Angeles make the trip if he would pay him $500. Wise did attempt to take this man along under the guise of a navigator. The Goodsells announced that any one in America wishing to send a letter in the balloon to any one in Europe could So so upon payment of a fee of $1. Invitations were sent to many notables of the day inviting them to make the trip, but those invited universally sent their regrets that other engagements would make it impossible for them to accept. Among those who declined the honor were Gen. George B, McClallan, Gen. Benjamin F. Butler, Charles A. Dana, Whitelaw Reid and Gov. Joseph R. Hawley, of Massachusetts. While the balloon was being constructed interested citizens and organizations made many contributions to its equipment. Gen- erally these contributions-were in the form of life-saving devices, but they included also large quantities of miscellaneous provisions ranging from hominy to condensed milk. Agents of the backers in European coun- tries were set to work to arrange for the ex- tension of courtesies to the balloonists when they landed on the continent. Wise and Don- aldson were necessarily unable to determine in advance where they would land; so ar- rangements were made for their reception in Germany, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Italy, Portugal, Denmark, Russia, Spain, Eng- the land, Austria-Hungary and other countries. As an additional precaution, as the date of the scheduled departure drew near, advertise- ments were printed in the New York papers warning mariners of the project and asking them to be on the lookout for the balloon or for any of the ballast which they might find floating on the ocean. the balloon was about to be completed, dissension broke out Karly in September, as and Prof. Wise was quoted as criticizing the construction and equipment of the balloon. He denied this and said that he thought the balloon was excellent, even though it was constructed of cotton, whereas he would have preferred silk. The giant bag, the car, the lifeboat and the canoe were finally assembled on the Capitoline grounds in Brooklyn, overlooking Prospect Park. Great throngs of people gathered at the grounds to watch the preparations for departure.

IGH-SALARIED artists in the most H popular night clubs of New York were left to perform to empty tables recently, while the “big spenders” thronged the Madison Square Garden to gape at a wilted corps of dreary couples shuffling over its dingy floors to the blare of a raucous phonograph. Thesauruses were plundered of Critical adjectives by indignant citizens calling on of- ficials to put a stop to the racket. Inhuman, brutish, barbarous, unwholesome, noxious, pernicious, corrupting, destructive, irrational, ridiculous, asinine and senseless were only a few of the envenomed descripitions hurled via telephone, word of mouth and letter into the office of the mayor, the police commissioner, the district attorney, the board of health com- missioner, the corporation counsel] and the Humane Society. And while the underlings of these executives frenziedly passed the buck from one to the other, the contestants con- tinued to drag their bunioned and calloused tootsies toward possible fame and a fortune of $5,000. ‘Just where does the kick come in in those freak contests—dance marathons, bunion derbies, flagpole-sittings, hog-calling con- tests, pig-catchers, gum-chewers, rope-skip- pers and so on?” An answer to this conundrum was sought from David Seabary, well-known lecturer and author on the subject of psychology in its relation to the behavior of humans. His knowledge is not merely academic; it is backed by contact with hundreds of individ- uals who have consulted him on their mental idiosyncrasies. Interviewing Mr. Seabury is like drawing water from a mountain freshet in the early spring. The supply comes bubbling forth from a seemingly inexhaustible source. As a child he learned the principles of psychology as another learns the letters of the alphabet, the famous William James was a frequen? visitor to his father’s home in Boston, and Young David was a great pet of his. To the penetrating mind of David Seabury no manifestation of eccentricity in human beings is senseless, ridiculous or asinine. Be- hind the most preposterous actions and no- tions he finds a profound anthropological motivation. So, seated in the Seabury study which over- looks the artistic Murray hill section of Park avenue, New York, the writer received some very interesting reasons for many seemingly unreasonable contests, 7. > a (sTMNHE more he seeks, in the name of effi- ciency, to standardize his everyday '{fe,”’ he explained, speaking in a singularly musi- cal voice. ‘“‘He rises at 7:15, we'll say; breakfasts at 8, leaves his home for his office at 8:30 and arrives at his office at $:15. So on through the day each hour is scheduled. He lunches at the same hour, returns to the office at the same hour; leaves for home, dines and seeks recreation at the same hour. Also his meals are pretty much standardized, served in the same manner and by the same persons. “Primitive man for thousands of years faced the constant excitement of danger— sudden, unexpected meetings with wild ani- mals and enemies, pitfalls, droughts and problems of finding food. *“‘We are the product of these thousands of years of vicissitude, as the anthropologists put it, and there is an inner rebellion against being standardized in much the same manner that motorcars are standardized. This re- bellion is expressed in many erratic ways which men take in an attempt to get away from this imposed uniformity and monotony. “With all its comforts and conveniences, elvilization has brought us boredom; man is always on the edge of the saturation point, hence he has a tendency to turn to anything that is bizarre or grotesque as a kind of narcotic which promises a new sensation. “These freak contests are just part of tHe @ueerness which results from this effort to escape. “It was his understanding of this great need of escape from the commonplace that made Barnum 60 tremendously successful. He realized that people didn’t want to see just wild animals; they wanted to see some- thing so markedly in contrast to the routine ef their daily lives that they could forget themselves and the enforced monotony.” . — more civilized man becomes, the HE sensation caused by the recent dance marathon had the same basis as Barnum’s five-legged cow, Mr. Seabury suggested. Men and women, surfeited with standardized lux- ury, deserted the pleasure palaces with their gilt and brocade furnishings and their super- fine songsters and dancers, all of which was part of the routine of their everyday lives, and sought the hard benches surrounding Madison Square arena to watch a group of hard-boiled amatexr hoofers § desperately plodding along their endless trail.

By W. J. VOSS. URNING his inventive genius to the so- lution of auditorium acoustics, Emile Berliner, distinguished father of the telephone transmitter, the disc talking ma- chine, the radio microphone anc the contin- uous current transformer, nas added another achievement to his galaxy of notable inven- tions by producing a device which brings clear speech in a large hall.wiihin the realm of possibility. The obstacle which poor the way of the public speaker is So common and so frequently noticeable that the prob- lem has perplexed architects from time im- memorial. In any fine church edifices, ma- jestic auditoriums and hea‘ttiful theaters, it is not only difficult but almost imposible to understand even the gifted speaker who has unusual command of his voice, scousties place in After painstaking study of the problem from all angles, Berliner has found the solu- tion. His discovery is simple ir itself, per- haps, but the very simplicity, it must be re- membered, was attained only after several years of ceaseless experimentation. Every invention is simple—after it has been perfected. And so it is that Berliner, by inserting ‘‘simple” little wire-mesh cells into the walls of a hall acoustics are abominable, has clarifying nerve-racking reverberations and a veritable babel of voice sounds into which are not only clearly distinguishable but in their tonal quality, whose succeeded in tunes bell-like Berliner has devoted a lifetime of research and study to the problems of sound, Acous- tics along with electricity exerted a lively fascination for him since early youth, and his interest has been crowned with such have Ruccess as comes to few inventive geniuses. This interest which led him to devote his life to inventions in the field of sound had its origin in Berliner’s musical ear, inherited from his mother. Being naturally sensitive to the nuances of sound, there remained only the natural bent for things scientific to draw him into a line of endeavor that has given the world the microphone, the flat-disc talking machine and the continuous current trans- former, indispensable to radio broadcasting. AJ s * + T has long been the practice to attempt to correct acoustic defects in auditoriums by hanging draperies on the walls or padding them with felt, but this has resulted merely in muffling the reverberations and in nowise has cleared the tones. The stretching of wires through an auditorium also was a method which gave poor results, diffusing the sounds, but offering no improvement in clarity. - Having an ear trained oo Oe SOOOCOOOL in the room and prevent reverberation and echoes. Being practical-minded, after years of Iin- ventive experience, Berliner knew that his device must be inobtrusive to be usable. And it is just that. The cells may be placed in walls and so covered that virtually any type of wall surfacing can be imitated and the cell-pitted portion blend harmoniously with the remainder of the wall surface. This was done in the trading room of the New York Cotton Exchange, the walls of which were covered by Berliner with the resonant cement cells in order that the calls of one broker might be distinguished from those of another. When completed the cement sur- face covering the cells was covered with an imitation of Travertine stone which could not He distinguished from the real Travertine with which the rest of the interior is finished. A schgol building gave the inventor an op- portunity to demonstrate the worth of his in- vention. Having learned that the auditorium in the James F.

They were covered with cement and after the job was completed the walls presented the same pleasing appearance as the architect had given them in the begin- ning. The occasion of the first trial of the device was a meeting cf the Parent-Teacher As- sociation and the auditorium was crowded. The acoustic cells were a complete success. Applause was no longer a volume of ear-split- ting noises, but of distinctive tones. Small children recited and their little verses could be understood at the rear of the hall. The boardroom of the District Building was another instance of the success of the acoustic cell invention. When the District Commissioners presided at public hearings, they were unable to hear a speaker standing but a few feet from the platform on which they sat, while voices coming from more dis- tant points in the room were wholly unintel- ligible. After the installation of the Berliner acoustic cells, a speaker from any part of the room could be understood. It so happens that the Federation of Citizens Associations of Washington holds its meetings in the District Building boardroom, and as was the case with every other gather- ing, its meetings were discommoded by the annoying acoustic defects of the room. Berliner offered his cells to bring orderly audition out of the chaos of sounds. So suc- cessful was the Berliner device that the presi- dent of the federation pronounced it the greatest advance in hall acoustics which had come to his attention. The invention also was put to a severe test at the recent convention in the new building of the New Jersey State Council of the Knights of Columbus at Atlantic City. During the week the convention was in session there were three banquets, and the acoustic excel- lence of the hall was a surprising feature for both speakers and banquet guests. Again Berliner was commended for his achievement. The grand knight of the council took occasion, to write a letter to the inventor, in which he’ praised not only the satisfaction of the ban- queters, but also the gratification of thou- sands of listeners-in who heard the speeches and musical program so audibly broadcast by radio from the banquet hall. The fame of the invention has spread to various parts of the world. Just recently Mr. Berliner was called on by a large financial institution in Karachi, India, to send suffi- Ltt wai ‘init bi We!

To the unpracticed ear it seemed to need little clarification, particularly because it was so marked an improvement over the first test. But then, taking one of the cement cells made into tile form, the inventor held the tile against the wall and, striking the fork, placed it against the cell. The notes rang out with even greater volume and gave off the clear tone of a musical note. He directed the writer to strike his knuckles sharply against'a wooden table. The sound was muffled. But on striking them against one of the tile-inclosed cells there came a remarkably different sound. It was clear and resonant. Then Berliner took his visitor to a room in the building which is fitted with the acoustic diaphragms, indicat- ing that a test of their effectiveness might be made by walking heavily into the room and noting the difference of the sound of footfalls before and after entering. It wes noticeably perceptible as soon as the threshold was crossed. After considerable experimentation with his He repeated the the fork against a invention Berliner has reduced its use to com- parative exactness, varying, of course, accord- ing to the individual characteristics of the room in which it is to be installed. The gen- eral rule for its installation is that the cells should cover about one-fourth the total wall area under the ceiling. The underlying principle of the acoustic cell device is that it provides a hollow space within the wall and so provides an elastic body to produce perfect resonance. “Every partially or nearly wholly inclosed body of air,’’ says Berliner in explaining the scientific principles of his invention, ‘‘assumes a rhythmic vibration which will resound either as a tone or as a so-called reverberation whenever that air-body is agitated; fhe larger : the volume of air the slower the rhythm of the tone or of the reverberation.”’ The foundation for the latest inventive suc- cess of Berliner was laid back in the days when he was perfecting the gramophone. Then he experienced considerable difficulty from the resonance of the horns he used as sound collectors. Certain notes would be recorded and would reproduce much louder than other notes by the same singer or musical instru- ment.

Earlier discoveries in support of his theory were made in Florida as fa: back as 1916 and 1925, Dr. Gidley points out. In 1916 Dr. BE. H. Sellards, then State geologist for Flor- ida, discovered human remains at Vero asso- clated with fossil bones of animals known to have lived only during the sreat Ice Age Somewhat later, P. C, Singlecon, a local teur collector, made discoveries of similar beds at Melbourne, 40 miles tuorth of Vero. The 1925 finding came apout during the Am- herst-Smithsonian expedition, engineered by Dr. Gidley. He startled the world of science by announcing his discovery of a human skull at Melbourne, Fla., in what were re garded as Pleistocene beds. The general area taking in Melbourne and Vero, Fla., has been classified. The area has three principal kinds of strata, which Smith- sonian experts have designated as Nos. 1, 2 and 3. The first two are the lowest, and, therefore, the oldest, and the last named is at the surface and is consequently the newest. “The human finds, both at Vero and Mel- bourne,’’ explains Dr. Gidley, ‘“‘were made in the No. 2 stratum, very definitely below the contact point with the No, 3. or surface bed. All the animal bones are remains of what are considered to be Pleistocene species. The point we had to make certain, therefore, Was whether the human bones happened to be inserted in the No. 2. stratum from above at a later period, or whether they were deposited there originally. Il am happy to announce that I have proved to my own satisfaction that they were deposited during the original formation of the No, 2 stratum.” Summing up his finds, Dr. Gidley explains: “It is evident that the human remains found in the No. 2 Jayer could not have been in- serted from above through the marshy No. 3 stratum without leaving records of such insertion in traces of darker-colored sand. Nor could they have been pushed down into the No. 2 bed from its original surface with- out leaving a trace. The slightest disturb- ance of the No. 2 beds would have shown up unniistakably, “But the real importance of the entire findings lies in the light they throw on the human skull we found at Melbourne in 1925. ama- Smithsonian Institutioa ™~.

I regret that in the ease of the Vero (Fla.) finds anthropologists did not have the opportunity to examine the evidence on the spot rather than after every- thing relating to human occupancy had been removed and after far-reaching conclusions concerning the age of the remains had re- ceived wide publicity. ‘It is scarcely safe for the geologist or the paleontologist to assume that the prob- lem of human antiquity is his problem. Al- though it jis only just to acknowledge that geology and paleontology can be on occasion of the greatest aid to anthropology in de- termining the age of human remains, yet these branches are not adequate in them- selveg to deal with the subject. In all cases in which the remains of men are concerned, be they cultura] or skeletal, there enters a most important factor into the case which does not exist for the geologist or paleontolo- gist, namely, the human element, the ele- ment of man’s conscious activities.’’ As already pointed out, Dr. Gidley’s main claim is that since human bones were found side by side with those of a mastodon, human beings must have roamed the American con- tinent during the Pleistocene age. Dr, Hrd- licka, on the other hand, claims that the fact has no scientific significance because of man’s centuries old habit of burying his dead at varying depths, thus introducing his re- mains into deposits with which otherwise they had no relation. “There have been accidental deaths in rivers 4nd bogs, and in certain cases human bodies have remained on the surface of the ground unburied, but such instances have been always, as they are today, very rare.

The bones, with the excep- tion, perhaps, of some compact part, as a hand or a foot, would be broken, scattered, gnawed by animals, weath- ered, split, moss-eaten or root- saten. and in nearly all cases wholly or large- ly destroyed. “The same thing happens constantly with the skeletons of the larger animals whose hodies remain on the surface of the ground. What is preserved of them in the geological formations consists usually of individua! teeth or bones, or at most of a few related parts. Yet animal bones are on the whole more durable than human bones, and there are immeasurably more of them. ‘What slight chance, then, can there be of finding in any stratum, especially in one of slow accumulation, a fairly complete and well-preserved human skeleton of equa] age with the deposit? And if one such marvel should happen, what chance would there be of the discovery within a few yards’ distance, at almost the same depth and in a distinct geological formation, of a like skeleton? Surely such a chance would be infinitesimal. And if such skeleton or skeletons are actually found in ancient strata, it is only reasonable to expect that scientific explorers should make every possible effort to find a more probable explanation of their presence than that of original deposition, before announcing their contemporaneity with the inclosing de- posits and with the animal bones found in those deposits.”’ * a & » ONCERNING Dr. Gidley’s announcement of the discovery of pottery along with the bones of human beings’ and animals, Dr. Hrdlicka has much to say. He points out that pottery was not known to have existed during the Pleistocene period—further proof, in his opinion, that the relationship in one geolog- ical stratum of the various bones and cultural objects must have been accidental. — Dr. Hrdlicka goes on to say that in con- sidering the problem of human antiquity in any region the anthropologist must take into consideration the question of whether, in the light of our actual knowledge, the “presence of man in that region was probable or even possible.”’ Could man, therefore, have been present in Florida or anywhere in America during the Pleistocene Age?

By far the largest part of this time, however, was required for his cultural dsvelopment, phys- ical differentiation, multiplication in numbers and his spread over the Old World, the warmer parts of which were his cradle. ‘Before these results were accomplished man evidently could not have reached the dia- tant, isolated New World; and there is abundant evidence that he did not unt! very late in history—post glacial times, perhaps. As lat as the Aurignacian culture period, ap- proximately 15,000 to 25,000 years ago, man had not yet fully reached modern standards in physical development; had made No pot- tery; knew no metals; did not extend to Northern Europe; left no evidence that he knew even the crudest navigation, and can not possibly be conceivea as having been numerous enough to reach the northeastern- most limits of Asia, from which place alone there was a practical way sper to the Ameri- can Continent.

Besides, I’m always hoping they haven’t noticed how bad they are.’’ In the first place, people always do no- tice just how bad one’s legs are! We are a sophisticated world as far as legs go, these days, and it seems to me that the less you try to hide an unbeautiful leg the less con- spicuous it becomes. I do not mean by that, certainly, that you should flaunt an unshape- ly leg. I just mean that human nature is such that people are bound to notice particu- larly what we appear to be hiding from them. The best thing for you to do is not to allow your legs to appear conspicuous in any way. Wear your skirts the length that every one else is wearing them. A girl who wears her skirts six inches longer than is fashionable is simply proclaiming to the world that her legs are bad. Wear your stockings in the same color that every smartly dressed woman wears—unless they are conspicuously bright or pale. (Never wear anything but the beige shades of nude when ycu wear nude stock- ings.) There is a dead-leaf taupe-colored stocking that is very smart now. This would be an excellent color for you to wear. Tone your stockings in with your dress as much as possible. Black, if it is very sheer and transparent, is possible in the evening when vour dress is black. But, for daytime, black is much too conspicuous for the woman who must be careful about her legs. Don’t make the fatal mistake of thinking that black will necessarily make your legs look smaller! Choose your shoes with extreme care. See that they are well cut and that they fit you perfectly. Never wear “fussy shoes” and steer away from the oxford. The plain opera pump or the pump with one strap gives greater length to the Jeg and therefore makes the leg and ankle appear slimmer. See that your shoes are wide enough. Nothing looks ridiculous as to see a very narrow shoe © VvoGaue e Trim ankles and iegs are a mark of beauty and attractive- ness, and to have them should be one of the atms of every woman. beneath a large leg and ankle, And, above all, keep your shoes meticulously groomed and never let them run over at ‘tne heel. Heels are most important—not only in the effect that they have upon your appearance (a fat leg and a thin ankle on top of a too slender heel is silly), but in the effect that they have upon the actual shape of the leg. A famous doctor once told me that a woman could often take an inch off her ankles in a year simply by wearing the right heels and walking correctly! This heel doesn’t have to be the severely plain and sensible orthopedic variety, but it should be substantial enough to give the foot a firm resting place and it snould not be 80 high that the ankle gets no exercise. Notice the next fat-ankled woman who goes stump- ing past you. Nine chances out of ten she is wearing very high spike heels and she comes down flat upon her feet with no chance for the muscles to flex or unfiex themselves, with the result that they become corroded with fat out of self-defense Weak arches usually accompany thick ankles, and the real cause—except in cases of 2ctual deformity— is lack of proper exercise. 1 want to em- phasize that word “proper.” for you can walk and be active all your life and still not give your legs and an’{les their proper exercise. I have told you before how to walk cor- rectly, but I am going to tell you again at the risk of boring you. Always put your foot down straight in front of you with the toe pointing ahead (don’t toe out!) and the weight on the heel. Then shift the weight gradually to the ball of the foot and give a final push up with the toe.

It is not impossible, providing you have character and the derire to be beau- tiful. There are four things to remember: correct shoes, correct walking, persistence. Tonight, after you have undressed, take stock of yourself. Measure your ankles and the calves of your leg, write the result down on a card and put it away fcr future com parison. Now begin the following exercises: Stand firmly on both feet, hafds on hips, eyes straight ahead. Raise your heels—keep ing the weight evenly distributed—and bend the knees aS far as you can without squatting on the heels. Straighten the legs (still on the toes) and lower the heels Do this ten times at the start. Increase the number each day until you are doing the exercise 25 times. (This ought to take you from two to three weeks to do comfortably—-depending on what kind of condition you are .n.) Next, raise the right foot slightly in front of you, and turn the foot around at the ankle with a rotary motion from left to right, ten times. Then from vrigbt o ‘eft, ten times. Then bend the foot down ag far as possible and stretch it up as far as possible—ten times. Put as much energy into this exercise as you can. Never be satisfied until you feel the blood tingling in the leg. This means that the circulation is being violently acceler- ated. It is this acceleration of the normal blood supply that will literally wash away the fat—in time. Repeat the same exercise with the left foot. Don’t expect a miracle.

Golf balls that figuratively call ‘*Yoo-hoo, here I am!” when they get lost in the “rough” are promised by a New York in- ventor. They depend on the player’s sense of smell, hearing, ana sight to help him dis- cover them. One plan is to coat the balls with the fire- works composition commonly called “spit devil!” When the club strikes the ball the explosions begin, says Popular’ Science Monthly. They continue for some time after the ball has come to rest, so that the golfer can hear the sputtering of his ball in the grass, Another suggestion is the application of a solution of phosphorus and carbon bissiphide. In the grass, the ball would have a glow that would attract attention. Various aromatic liquids may be used to soak the balls so wher they get lost golfers can find them by sniffing the air near the ball’s supposed location. Worry Causes Mishaps. A workman at a cutting machine was dis- turbed over a quarrel with his wife. In a moment of distraction he torgot the knives and a serious accident resulted. Another man, operating a huge press, was worrying over a mortgage on his home, Failure, for an instant to attend to his job, nearly cost him his life. Looking out the window at a girl who was passing on the street caused a mechanic in an automobile factory to make a costly error which cost him his job. An analysis of 75,000 industrial acci- dents, recently completed by H. W. Heinrich, of the Travelers Insurance Co., revealed, he says in Popular Science Monthly, that a work- man who is mentally disturbed is as much of danger to himself and his fellow workmen as if he were physically disabled, ot PALM AMMAR cs PLD 0 PO UME UA OA Ce NPAT LL eA UU EU EMAL EEL Tee EE ing it in the closet. less ghastly.

An odd friendship existed between a cub of the black bear and a kitten of a common house cat, both owned by a friend of mine.

Every one is familiar with the al- most universal habit of mother birds covering their young. We eall it brooding. Why do birds do this? The natural conclusion is that it is done to keep the young warm. This is true, under certain conditions. It is true at night, for instance. But the shielding of the young in the nest is often done for exactly the opposite purpose. It is often done to protect PLAYMATE S?. PHOTO BY WM.L. FINLEY j the young from the direct rays of the hot sun. You will then some- times find the mother bird with both wings partly spread, she herself pant- ing for breath. What prompts her to do this? Instinct. says the scientist. Probably the scientist is right, but I confess, as | have watched little feathered mothers’ thus Shielding their precious babies with the same thoughtful care that a human mother would adjust a sun- shade over her sleeping baby, I have been led to feel the need of a better definition of the word “instinct” than now appears in our dic- tionaries, Long Incubation. The questions which come to a naturalist are distinctly seasonal. Along in June of this year almost every mail brought me letters from those seeking knowledge in regard to turtles, particularly the more common species of pond and river turtles. And the one ques- tion which was most perplexing to the in- quirers concerned the length of time which must elapse between the laying of a turtle’s egg and the hatching. One woman called me up by phone to say that that day she had witnessed in her garden the laying of eggs by a snapping turtle, and she was most anxious to know when she might reasonably expect a crop of baby turtles. She was a most astonished woman when I informed her that some time between the 1st and 15th of September those eggs deposited in the earth in June might be ex- pected to hatch. Snapping turtles which de- posit their eggs between June 10 and June 25 may be expected to attain motherhood be- tween September 1 and September 15. In other words, it is nearly or quite three months, according to conditions, from the laying of one of these eggs to its hatching. Of course, the mother by that time has for- gotten that she ever deposited any eggs. Valiant Thrushes., This spring I received some first-hand evi- dence of a heartening character, proving that predatory creatures do not have things wholly their own way. It was sent me by Dr. Horace Packard, of Boston, and the incident was witnessed by him at his summer home. Here is what he says about it: “From my south window I witnessed a combat between a pair of wood thrushes nesting near my house and a snake. The thrushes, wings partly spread, made fierce dashes at the snake. They fought together. After a few minutes of fierce combat they ap- peared to be the victors. “After the birds had retired I went down and found the snake hors de combat. It was still alive; but made very little resistance, YELLOW WARBLER ah ey ls ‘YOUNG PUN, PHOTO BY DR. ALFRED O.GROSS FROM HOT and [| poked it with a Stick. I finished the work the thrushes had so well begun, and, stretching the snake out to its full length, found that it meas- ured 34 inches and was.about 3 inches in circumference at the largest part.’’ From the _ descrip- Bae eta AV ROO RE ar ANNAN OS eke tion of the snake sent by the doctor, I should judge that it was a milk snake. The latter is a great mouser, but so far as I Know, not addicted to killing birds. However, I suppose that all snakes look alike to birds, parently they do to some humans, as ap- A Catbird as Peacemaker. Mr. Louis L. Miller, of New_Jersey, has a pair of wrens which come to his yard to nest each year. At least, he thinks they are the same pair, because of their exceeding tame- ness. He has out two wren houses. The birds always nest in the east box first, and raise their second brood in the west box. A pair of catbirds are also close neighbors. One day this spring Mr. Miiler’s attention was drawn to a squabble going on out in the yard. His first thought was that English sparrows might be trying to drive out the wrens. He found, however, two cock wrens having a most terrific fight. One had the other on its back and he was in bad shape. Just as he was about to step in to separate the fighters Mrs. Catbird flew down and did her best to separate them. She worked over them for two or three minutes, but made no headway, and the fight continued both fast and furious. Then Mr. Miller interfered and very nearly had to pick up the fighters in order to part them. Both flew, but soon came back on the ground about three yards apart, and stood there, chattering at each other with might and main, taking it out in words. At the time the west box was unoccupied, but had been filled with sticks by the wrens occupy- ing the east box. Apparently another wren had undertaken to clean out the west box, resulting in the fight. A Shiftless Phoebe. Birds are very like ua humans. They have -tndividual tastes, and there is no accounting HOUR OLD KILLOEER PLOVER? AND ESG- PHOTOS BY LEW? W.AWALKER for them. Some birds are smart, apparently stupid. Some appear to be full of life and vigor, and others are, to all appear- ances, shiftless. I had reported to me this vear the nest of a phoebe in a most curious place. It was at- tached to the back wall of a cave, about eight feet deep and five feet wide, in a huge pile of © sawdust, where a sawmill had been operated. Four of the five eggs in the nest hatched. Sawdust dropping from the sides and top fill- ed the nest every day and threatened to smother the young. It might actually have done this had it not been removed every-day. Why should this pair of birds have chosen such a precarious situation for a nest? It appears like sheer shiftlessness. Perhaps it was. There is no telling. Birds, after all, have many human qualities. A Naturalist’s Question Box. P. S. Burnham found a chimney swift lying on the lawn, nearly dead.

The partially filled bag was seen to oscillate in a strange manner, and a tiny fissure ap- peared at its top near the valve. Almost in- stantly the fissure spread to a crack extending the full length of the balloon, and in less than 30 seconds the 325,000 eubic feet of gas which it had contained had escaped and the cotton gack lay in heaps flat upon the ground. All of Wise’s gloomy predictions seemed to have come true, but Donaldson was tenacious in his plan to fly over the ocean, and the Good- sells were willing to continue their backing.

Donaldson became impatient at the delay which would necessarily result from con- structing a new bag, and on September 19 he obtained as a gift from the Goodsells the shattered first balloon, whicn he was confi- dent he could recondition for the trip.

Mr. Donaldson, how- ever, made one jump for the concentrating ring and, seizing the ring with one hand and the end of the valve rope with the other, he answered, ‘Yes, sir.’ f “This satisfied Mr. King, who, turning to Mr. Weed, said, ‘Cut it.” The ax descended at 19 minutes after 9, and the balloon rose with immense velocity.” As the big ship floated from Brooklyn over New York, where millions gathered on streets and rooftops to watch it, Mr. Ford began to record his story of the first attempt to fly across the Atlantic. By 9:30 the balloon had reached an altitude of 4,900 feet and was traveling north-northeast, and Mr. Ford sent off the first carrier pigeon with a message to the “folks at home.” According to Mr. Ford's account, Mr. Donaldson was kept busy for the first hour or so reassuring his comrades of their Bafety. He assured them that they were traveling east and going at a good rate. ' Mr. Donaldson was a total abstainer from alcohol and tobacco, but when the balloon made steady progress toward the northeast and Ford and Lunt each opened a bottle of champagne, Donaldson decided that he would have a drink, too, to celebrate the auspicious start of the flight. Soon after the champagne had been imbibed the balloon, which had dropped from its 4,000-foot level, began to ascend and, at about 10:30, reached an altitude of 6,200 feet, the greatest attained on the trip. It was travel- ing east-northeast, and the second homing pigeon was dispatched. o © + 7 OW the balloon began to act like an eleva- tor, dropping down close to the earth and ascending as the balloonists cast off their bal- last. According to Ford’s account, “the gas now was evidently beginning to lose its power.” Despite the frantic discharge of bal- last, Donaldson could not get the balloon to rise to any great altitude, and the drag rope was twisting and switching through the trees over which the balloon floated, No better description vf the voyage at this point could be obtained chan that given by Ford, as follows: At this time the writer was ordered to desist from his purely literary oc- cupations and craw] in under-ceck and break cargo. In a very few minutes he sent out bags of biscuit, boxes of caramels, a keg of molasses, some jars of honey pickles, a hair brush, a box of sandwiches. a jar of pre- served plums, a large tin can filled with roast fowls, a packet of toothpicks, several reams then, gentlemen, please your places.’ every have you got your eT TGnnty eh palit I “tt Vth Mier iii tii} h, tee ® LiNbO daaadNdQPUU AAA Ra tDepbidss Obits t bbds Pica basmmet oan cabinet dete sthatatiah bath dt MMM Mg ea MTT eT RTT th of paper, a ham, two cases of eau de cologne, — a box of pomade, a pair of shoes, a paper of tacks, a claw hammer, a n2wiy-invented fly- ing machine, a bottle of Mrs, Winslow’s Soothing Syrup, paper of chewing tobacco, Donaldson’s hat, a case of ‘S T.—1860—X,’ some crackers and a can of preserved oysters, tomatoes and sardines, a pitent steam plow- ing machine, a paper of hairpins and Lunt’s boots. ’ Donaldson’s account of the interval spent in these healthful and exhilarating exercises nm rm ys ne ew cam ae A Mii idan id NR ini uPA, detecting the unqualified experts by subject- ing all present to the following examination, which can be varied according to the nature of the event: 1.

We were traveling rapidly toward the side of the mountain. It was a bag of crackers and a box of hominy cast out just then that saved us. Everything was at hand ready to throw out at the time. We were within twenty feet of the tree tops. I dropped a bag of crackers und the hominy, and then we rose, clearing the mountain, perhaps, a few hundred ‘e2i—sufficient to cause the drag rope to clear the trees.’ “Things really began to get serious, On crossing the mountain, we renained suspend- ed in the air, perfectly, motionless for about 15 minutes. Then, being on the lee side of the mountain the warm air caused us pres- enlty to ascend, and we attained a heighth of 4,500 tweet. The situation was now terribly sublime.

The balloon again had been forced very low and the drag rope was again whipping through the trees. When the boat was only 100 feet above the earth ard a big sandbank rose in front of the balloon Donaldson ap- parently yielded to Lunt'’s entreaties, and after ordering that the instruments be made secure in the boat’s cabin, rold Lunt and Ford to prepare to leap. Lunt was standing on the port side near the bow and Donaldson and Ford were next to him holding the rigging. Just at this time the boat swung low over a rise in the ground. Donaldson, the veteran of many balloon accidents, threw out his two traveling bags, Ford jumped from the boat, as did Don- aldson, and they and the bags rolled in a heap on the wet grass. The drop was only 30 feet and neither was injurea. When they looked up, they saw the bal- loon ascending with Lunt still in the boat, apparently caught in the rigging. Donaldson and Ford made an effort iv seize the drag rope but it soon lifted out of reach. Realizing that they were helpless, the two stood and saw their comrade carried swiftly away in the storm. Residents of the nefghbor- hood quickly gathered around them, and then they learned that they were on the farm of Charles Lewis at North Canaan, Litchfield County, Conn, They had left Brooklyn at 19 minutes after 9 in the morning and reached this point, 120 milcg distance, at 1:16 in the afternoon. Lunt tells his own story of what happened to him when he was left alone in the storm- tossed balloon. Apparently he had not heard Donaldson direct him to jump, and did not know that he was alone in the boat until] he looked around and gaw that the others were gone, “The bag,’”’ Lunt said later, ‘‘was shaking about above me with awful foree, and I could see nothing, so thick was the cloud. I seized the valve cord and attempted to open it. I could not. The cord became entangled with the neck. Suddenly tree tops shot up through the fog, and in an instant the balloon was twirling through the branches. I climbed out of the boat to a place above the ring, and as the balloon rushed into a thicket of trees [ swung myself out and dropped among the branches. The boat scraped over me and scratched my hand. I dropped to the earth, surprised to find myself unhurt.” 7 Lunt apparently had not gone far from his companions, and in a short time they were reunited in Canaan, where, according to Ford, “you may very readily believe that we extended congratulations to one another that we had escaped with whole bones.” The wrecked balloon was found shortly after by a farmer about one mile from Canaan. : | And thus ended man’s first attempt to fly across the Aii@miie Ocean. ¥ valleye below.

One dam after an- other burst under the unprecedented pres- sure of water and cas- caded avalanches of flood down into the It was a national catastrophe. {ncidentally—as with every great catas- trophe — it brought forth gallant heroes by the dozen. One of. these heroes —or rather heroines —was a collie dog named Lassie. She be- longed to W, N. Chap- man, who had a pros- perous farm on the outskirts of Spring- field, Vt. Lassie was a family pet as well as a wise herder and vigilant watchdog. Such a dog pays its own way, ten- fold, on any farm. Las- sie was destined to do infinitely more to jus- tify her own existence and to reward her owner’s care. One evening in the autumn, Mr. Chapman and his wife were sitting by the kitchen fire, listening to the torrent of rain that ham- mered down on the roof. For days it had been raining. The three little Chapman children were fast asleep upstairs. The hour was growing late. Lassie, the watchdog, lay on the porch outside the kitchen. In the hollow of the meadow below the house the swollen river was roaring so loud- ly as almost to drown the pounding noise of the rain, Chapman and his wife were about to ge up to bed, secure as ever in the know- ledge that Lassie would guard their home safely while they slept. Suddenly the eollie burst into frantic bark- ing. She could be heard rushing off the porch and out into the night. Then, through the rain her bark could be heard louder and shriller than before, as she galloped franti- cally back to the house. Barking, yelling, she tore at the kitchen door with her fore- claws, clamoring an alarm. Thinking she was in play, and fearful lest her racket awaken the children upstairs, Chapman shouted to her to be quiet. Always hitherto she had obeyed her master’s every command. But now her barking and scratch- nyr epreeepergT Ti halae? laid TTP bead " Ths hi at } LU feova erebrrvee sien erebeteds red Pept ul th Vibe, lee : : ' TTiihiall Galt ML) Howat a Mi at ' ' ‘ ' " Pi.

She fairly flung her- self against the door, screeching in excite- ment. Angrily, Chapman strode to the door and opened it. But Lassie did not enter. Instead she wheeled about and ran down the steps into the darkness, then ran back and tried to draw her master after her. Chapman was convinced by this time that something around the farm was amiss. Perhaps some of his hogs or cattle had gotten out and Lassie was trying to tell him about it. So, half-reluctantly, he followed the eager collie out into the dooryard and beyond. His wife stood on the threshold, seeking in vain to see ten feet ahead of her in the dense blackness, Then her husband called loudly to her, from somewhere below, to bring him a lan- tern. She did so, running out to see what had befallen him. She found Chapman up to his waist in an ocean of swirling water; Las- sie swimming at his side. He was trying to reach the stable to let out the livestock, lest the flood sweep the barn away. The river, in a few minutes, had become an ever-higher and wider lake. It threatened to rise far above the level of the knoll on which the Chapman house stood.

The wise collie had heard or smelt rising of the torrent. Though it wholly new experience to her, told her it spelt danger to guarding. Therefore, she had galloped up to the house to give the alarm—an alarm for which Chapman at first had bidden her be silent. Barely had Chapman let out his hogs and cattle when the stable was flooded. Theh, as Mrs. Chapman woke the children and car- ried them with her husband’s aid to higher ground, the water filled the cellar and began to creep around the porch. At last, neigh- bors in a boat heard Lassie’s shrill barks and found the Chapmans and rescued them. They were told that a dam, just above, had burst and had spread its waters every- where through the valley. But as it was not a large dam, the flood was already be- ginning to ebb. Presently, the waters were so low that the Chapmans went back to their house. The stable and cellar were still flooded, but the upper part of the building was dry. And, at every minute, the waters were receding. They decided it would be safe to go to bed, as nothing could be done that night toward finding the liberated live stock or repairing damages. Accordingly, they went upstairs to get what sleep they might, leav- ing Lassie on guard on the soaking wet porch. They were exhausted by the excitement of the past few hours, and all of them slept heavily. A little before dawn, Lassie’s fran- tic barking waked them again. Mrs. Cuaap- man was roused from slumber to find the collie tugging at her bedclothes, stopping avery moment or so to bark again. The collie had gotten into the house some- how, when her barking on the porch failed to wake her owners, and she had run Straight to Mrs. Chapman to force her to get up. This time, neither Chapman nor his wife disre- garded the vehement warning. Up they got, gathering the children in thei arms and hurrying downstairs. Nothing seemed amiss, anywhere, so far as they could tell through the darkness. They were about to go back to bed once more, when a shout from somewhere outside halted them. “The big dam has just burst!’’ roared a man as he rode furiously past their house. ‘Look out for yourselves!’’ The “‘big dam’’ was many times larger than the one which had burst a few hours earlier. Well did the Chapmans realize what must happen when its released volume of water should come thundering down their valley. At top speed they hurried out and up the side of a high hill to the house of a neighbor who lived on the summit. They had barely reached this place of safety, with Lassie pat- tering along beside them, when the flood swept upon the spot they had just quitted.

Then came Ber- liner’s gramophone of which the record was made horizontally so that while the needle was vibrated it was at the same time pushed forward by the record groove. Still Berliner was not satisfied with his progress and set about eliminating the voice distortion which had to be overcome before his invention was satisfactory to his trained ear. He recognized that to make a wax record by cutting the indentations up and down would result in vibrations out of pro- portion to the voice. Concluding that the vi- brations must all be of the same depth, he developed the lateral cut record on which the vibrations are recorded sidewise like hand- writing. Still Emile Berliner was not through with the gifts to humanity made possible by his inventive genius. Had he given only the telephone transmitter, his name would have deserved to live among the immortals, But he threw in for good measure the possibility to bring to its present high state of perfec- tion the talking machine, Then came radio, and the savants who sponsored its rise from a sickly and dubious infancy to its robust maturity were obliged to turn to a Berliner invention—the loose contact microphone—to achieve their goal. * € * MAN of Berliner’s mental stature should have a humanitarian side. He has. It is not a softening background merely to off- set the austerity of great accomplishments. Rather has it found sufficient expression that, without his contributions to science, his name would live for his gratuitous effort in behalf of childhood. The fight he waged for the reduction of infant mortality grew out of an illness of his own baby girl. When skilled physicians had failed to restore her to the health which was her birthright, Berliner took personal charge of the case and saw his self-imposed duties of dietitian brings the child to a.condition of health and vigor, When the inventor took up the cudgels in the fight to preserve the childhood of the Nation, out of every 1,000 babies born in the City of Washington, 322 died during their first year of life. Of this number 40 per cent was caused by gastro-intestinal complaints such as had affected little Alice Berliner, while 2% per cent had been caused by primary tuberculosis of the intestinal lymphatics, The attack was directed against raw milk and the weapon was pasteurization. How Berliner won his fight is a long story, but suffice it to say he emerged victorious after he had thrown considerable personal re sources into the fray and finally had spon- sored the Tuberculosis Association of Wash- ington. Today Berliner maintains the Bu- reau of Health Education in Washington. In 1925 he was largely instrumental! in effecting the passage by Congress of a milk law for the District of Columbia. The success of his campaign to reduce child mortality is indicated in the latest statistics on the subject. Last year there were 9,306 babies born in Washington and during the entire year only 91 died of ina- 2¢tinal trouble, less than 1 per cent. © - - \ Thus has Emile Berliner given to humanity in fullest measure. Had his invention of the telephone transmitter, the disc talking ma- chine and the microphone, essential as they are to world progress, never been evolved, he still would have a claim on human grati- tude for his battling for the right of the child to live and grow to vigorous maturity. This is the story of great inventions, but also it is the story of a man who stands out as an intensely human figure and a great inventor. Those who know him for his per- sonal worth, as well as his scientific achieve- ments, declare unhesitatingly that his name will enjoy a span of life as long if not MONEDA ATPOARMAM AAS RESPYOL ET ety Oene pra ea atgeR Tt LPP FP DAR LP Mt, ’ Pee yin totter : eeqitree %..8 rf Pig | TM stat | rc jidtiwaitnat TTT TELL svodtau dot viadinoendgustti TTR pepnennney ATT) 1 aba | Cincinnati to Revive Singing longer than his deeds. To that the mothers whose children he has spared a youth of lingering suffering eagerly add a second- ing note, knowing that the man gave far more than he needed to give to the land of his adoption and to the world of flesh and blood which follows a pathway to greater happiness as a result of his work. The telephone transmitter, the continuous current transformer, the successful talking machine, the microphone of radio, and now the acoustic cement wall signify the inventor. The uncompromising crusade in the interest of child health denotes the man. Both are Emile Berliner. Mth MMdtan dl 2 Cincinnati, Ohio (A. P.).—Butcher and baker and candlestick maker will blend their voices in Cincinnati this summer in a re- vival of singing guilds, which in other days brightened the life ot Old World communi- ties. The music fete is planned in coordina- tion with the produc- tion of Wagner’s opera of labor devoting itself to song, “Die Meister- singer von Nurem- berg,” the most ambi- tious undertaking in the history of the Cincinnati summer zoo opera company. Men of the Big Four railroad, the Bakers’ Singing S&o- ciety and other groups of artisans and crafts- men have joined their voices to groups from the musical colleges, virtually every impor- tant singing organi- zation in the city, and public school choruses, to make the event rival the famous Bay- reuthian festival of ; Germany. These groups will support the regular stars of the zoo opera company who wik sing the principa!] roles. The scene will be the summer opera audi- torium at the Cincinnati Zoological Gardens, and the production will be directed by Isaac Van Grove. is director. “Die Meistersinger”’ is seldom attempted because of the large cast and the chorus re- quired, groups from all of the guilds of the day having parts in its European perform- ances, To follow the production as closely to Wagner's intent as the stage permits the Cincinnati craftsmen all will be given parts. The Cincinnati May Festival organization has been called upon for its best voices, and the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra will play the score, The opera will be presented three nights during the first week in August, and the stars Guilds at Summer Zoo Opera TTD TREC LE CCC CCR Groups of Cincinnati craftsmen will sing the choruses in the summer soo opera's production of Wagner's “Die Mei- stersinger von Nurem- berg” in August. Soloists include Elizabeth Ams- den (upper right) and Forrest Lamont (below). Issac Van Grove (above) will include artists from the Metropolitan and Chicago Civic Opera Companies. Among the principals will be Fred Patton as Hans Sachs, the cobbler; Forrest Lamont as Sir Walter Von Stelzing, a young Fran- conian knight; Henri Scott as Veit Pegner, the goldsmith; Joseph henke as Kunz Vogelgesang, the furrier; Louis John John- son as Sixtus Nachtigal, the buckle maker; Herbert Gould as Fritz Kothner, the baker; Constance Eberhardt as Magdalena, and Elizabeth Amsden as Eva, daughter of the goldsmith. The other leading roles are the town clerk, the pewterer, the grocer, the tailor, the soap boiler, the stocking weaver, the cop- persmith and a night watchman.

UT UT nr itt) i H ‘Will | HERE is only one real reason for the increase in divorce, aside from the perversity of human nature. And that reason is the ease with which the unfit and the immature are permitted to marry. “It isn’t fundamentally divorce which is to be condemned, but those marriages which never had a chance of becoming permanent. The real evil and the underlying causes of di- vorce lie far back of the divorce proceedings. The promise for the future wholesomer.ess of the marriage relation lies in preventing mar- riages which should never take place.” Mrs. Edward Franklin White was talking. There is perhaps no woman in the country who has made so thorough a study of the country’s marriage and divorce laws and their practical application in real life as Mrs. White, who had that ready answer for the question as ito why there is the constantly mounting in- crease in divorce in the United States.. She is fa former vice president of the General Federa- tion of Women’s Clubs and the author of the uniform marriage and divorce bill which the General Federation and others among the more influential women’s organizations of the coun- try are sponsoring ak » » ~~ HEN the General Federation needs some person well versed in the ramifications of our existing marriage and divorce laws to up- hold their stand for the bill, Mrs. White goes to Washington to appear before the Senate judiciary committee to furnish that dis- inguished group of legislators with facts, fig- res and citations of legal decisions. The Gen- bral Federation knows that a bill which calls for a uniform law for all States is going to eet with a fight in Congress, but year after year the bill is introduced, because, being women, they know that they may get their way Dy persistence, Mrs. White is thoroughly capable of meet- ng the members of the Senate and House on heir own grounds, for in addition to being a successful homemaker and mother she is a awyer of no mean ability and the reporter for he Supreme and Appellate Courts of Indiana. Che latter position is much more important han it sounds, for she has the entire respon- ibility of compiling the official records of the Hecisions of the highest courts of the State. But to come back to the reasons for the in- rease in divorce, she said: “The figures for Hivorces usually, if not always, include the annulment of void and voidable marriages, imply because such annulments are dissolu- ions of the marriage contract.” It is only within the last year or two that the United btates Census Bureau has attempted to get parate figures for annulments as distinct rom divorces in the statistical returns for the puntry as a whole. “These annulments are not pursuant to the ounds for divorce,” Mrs. White continued, but are granted because the requirements for narriage have not been met. For instance, a arriage contracted between parties one of yhom was ins at the time of the marriage vould be annulled and not divorced, because it yas void ab initio, or from the beginning. “Likewise, in most States a certain age is re- uired of those who enter into the marriage opntract and if, in evasion of that law, they arry either in the State of the domicile or in nother State, that marriage may be annulled br nonage. Void and voidable marriages may lways be annulled but a marriage which was alid when contracted must be dissolved by ivorce. However, up to the present time rec- rds of annulments have been included in the gures for divorce, thereby increasing the fig- res for divorce and not presenting a true pic- re of conditions as they exist. “It is therefore true that illegal marriages rnish probably the greatest number of sepa- ations which are figured in the statistics as ivorces. “To my mind, the second greatest cause for ivorce is the ease of remarriage. The fact at another mate is waiting around the cor- ear until the decree is signed conduces great- y to divorce. It is my belief that a more thor- gh inforcement of the qualifications for arriage would prevent many divorces. By his I do not mean I would make marriage y harder for those who are fit to enter into e relation, but I would make it harder for ne unfit. “The fact that there are 49 marriage laws 1 the 48 States and the District of Colum- a, no two of which are alike, to a great ex- nt permits such conditions to exist, not to beak of the fact that grounds for divorce ary from one in the District of Columbia to burteen in New Hampshire, with South Caro- a not permitting divorce at all.

Without waiting the year, he and his fiancee, Winifred Hudnut, went over into Mexico and were married. The California court, instead of finding him guilty of bigamy, declared his second marriage illegal. the year they thought they would like to bh married in Chicago. ‘‘When they arrived in Chicago to be mai ried they found that the laws of Illinoi: specified that no one could be married with- in a year after being divorced, and as Valen- tino’s divorce had just been declared abso- lute by the California court, he could not be married in Chicago. So he motored over to Crown Point, the nearest county seat in Indiana; applied for a license, received it and was married. The law jin Indiana pro- hibits the issuance of a license except in the county of which the woman is a resident, but the clerk did not see fit to let this deter him from issuing the license. “When the Indianapolis newspapers ask- ed my opinion as to the legality of the mar- riage, I could only point out that if the par- ties had made no misrepresentations to the license clerk, they were protected by the license.”’ £ “But to come back to what you believe to be the main cause for the increase of divorce, the marriage of the unfit—what kind of mar- riage do you mean?” Mrs. White was asked. “Marriages of children, of people of dif- ferent races and of the mentally and physi- What Religion Offers © By DR.

The number of divorces resulting from these marriages of boys under legal age totaled More than 12,000 little girls of 15 were mar- ried last year, about 43,000 of 16 years of age, and more than 90,000 of 17 years.

Often a party of young people take a joyride to one of these easy-marriage havens, where five or six couples will be married, knowing that the marriages can be annulled when the lark is ended,” me y - *” RS. WHITE paused in contemplation of the figures and exclaimed: ‘And think of the inconsistence of saying that a boy of 14 is of sufficient capacity to marry but not of sufficient capacity by seven years to exe- cute a valid deed to a home he might own, or contract for his household supplies! § It is intolerable to think that in many States children of 12 and 14 may legally marry when they have the consent of parents or guardians, and that consent may be given by one who is himself without moral respon- sibility or mental] capacity. “If a husband of 14 or 15 should move into some States—-Indiana, for instance-—he would find himself within the compulsory school age and subject to the laws for the protection of children, including the munici- pal curfew laws. He could only obtain em- ployment by the permission of the school authorities, and no employer ‘could hire him unless he produced his school certificate, Only a few of the States require witnesses to a marriage, and yet all of those same States would require witnesses to the trans- fer of property by will or the transfer of any other contractual obligation. “This bad condition is further augmented by the fact that although the majority of the States prohibit the issuance of a certificate to a minor below the specified age tor marriage without the consent of his parents, yet twenty of the States prescribe no penalty for the official who issues the certificate without the required consent. “Marriages may be annulled for nonage in almost every State in the Union, so that if a marriage has taken place under age, either in another jurisdiction or in the same juris- diction, it may be annulled because the princi- pals have not reached the proper age, There are five States in which the age of 21 must be reached by both girl and boy before mar- riage; seventeen States which fix no age 7” limit, no provisions in their law giving the age at which children may marry. Nine of these States have recognized the common-law aze of 12 for girls and 14 for boys. » o . . 66 NLY eight Siales Lorbid marriage of epileptics and feeble-minded, only nine- teen forbid the mar- riage of the insane or imbec'les, and only three States disqualify drunkards, yet such marriages, entirely outside any question of morals or eugenics, ere nishing the grist,for the Of course, speaking of -he mariage as a contract, we recognize tha: insanity exist- ing at the time of the marriage would render the contract void, just as it wotild render any contract void- because there must be mental capacity before any contract can be entered into, but only nineteen States have made enactments which have included that feature. “On the question of intermarriage between the races, we have a very difficult problem. Regardless of the idea of superiority or in- feriority of the races, intermarriage between members of different racial groups is a proper subject for legislation and prohibition, be- cause they are more than likely to end un- happily. “There are 30 States which prohibit mar- riage between members of the black and white races, and in those States it is usually determined that as much as one-eighth degree of negro blood indicates a member of that race. Ten States prohibit marriage between members of the Mongolian and the white races, and seven prohibit intermarriage be- tween whites and Indians. ~ - . ~ é¢Q7 OU will notice that I say prohibit. Only a few of these States make the mar- riage criminal, so that if there is any annul- ment of marriages of that kind, it must be on civil process and serves to swell the di- vorce figures. “There are all sorts of other contributing causes for the increase in divorce in the 49 varieties of marriage and divorce laws of the States and the District of Columbia. For in- stance, a marriage between citizens of Penn- sylvania in Maryland in evasion of the laws of Pennsylvania prohibiting such a marriage is void in Pennsylvania, though valid in constantly _fur- divorce mills.

These are just a few of the dozens and dozens of cases which are already matters of record in our courts. Do you wonder that the total number of divorces for the country as a whole is constantly mounting? “It is a general principle throughout the country with reference to divorce that a dl- vorce which is legal in one State is legal in other States, but there are many exceptions to that. Eight States absolutely refuse by statute to recognize marriages which are con- tracted in evasion of their laws, and the Su- preme Court has upheld their right to dis- regard the principle of comity in such in- stances. New Jersey, New York, North Caro- lina and Pennsylvania have refused to recog- nize divorces granted in other States in num- bers of instances.” Mrs. White is, of course, too intelligent not to know all the opposition which has been raised to the stand which she and the General Federation have taken upon the desirability for a uniform marriage and divorce law. But she argues ably that the uniformity of the civil status of citizens of the United States is as much a matter of national concern as is the creation of citizens by naturalization or as commerce between the States, or banke ruptcy, or any other nationa] question over which the Constitution has given Congress power to legislate.

Right and left smashes to the head had sent Tun- ney to the floor in the seventh, and at the end of the long count of nine the heavy- weight champ rose frum nis knee and man- aged to back away from Dempsey’s. wicked weaving until the bell stopped the chase. It is ring history that Gene came back in the eighth, with strength ana skill quickly returning, until his recovery was so com- p.ete that when the bout ended Dempsey had been licked a second time aud Gene remained the champion, What is it that brings a man up after he has been knocked off his pins by the terrific mauling of an adversary’ How does fighter after fighter survive the fierce punishment of a ring battle and re- turn to the fray after each bel! as fresh and vigorous as after a morning shower? Why does one blow sometimes send a man Sprawling on the floor beyond the count of ten, while others take worse pummeling and mever pass out? « . + * i peacgs questions were put to prominent members of the medical profession who are also widely known as iight fans. Their answers reveal some striking facts regard- ing the nature and the human quality of prize fighters, “Successful fighters enjoy the punishment they get,’’ says Dr. A. I. Baron, medical di- rector of the Pennsylvania State Boxing Com- mission and a student of mental diseases. “Otherwise they would never stand up under the beating they receive during the course of a contest. nll “Prime boxers are masochists. They like to take a lacing. They take blows like a thirsty man takes liquor, A masvuchist is a person who is thrilled by the blows which bounce all over him. He gets a kick out of every puoch that lands on him. “Deep down in his nature is the need to be stimulated by punishment. He is proud of the fact that he can take it. When he wades ip as fist after fist finds a mark on his body the masochist says joyfully: ‘Come on, do your worst; I can take that and more.’ In- stead of wearing him out, the to stimulate him. punches seem “If you’ve been to prize have often seen men drunk wilh. punches, really groggy with punishment. An?’ then, sudden- ly, they seem to get a fresh infusion of vi- tality and energy, an arm flashes out with power behind it, and an opponent takes the eount and the crowd never gets done talking about the wonder of the comeback. “What apparently happedDs is that the man, pepped up by punishment, is stimulated to such a degree that the explcsive force of the stimulation gives him the strength to jand a haymaker on the other man in the ring. fights you ae * oa ” O man can reach the top of the fight- ing game if he is not a masochist to a degree. He must be able to take punish- ment and like it. Of course, there is danger in extremes here, as in everything else. A man taking too much punisnment is liable to lay himself open to a knockout, or the stimulation of the punches he has taken may wear off before he can uSe ics force, and then the reaction weakens him and he is too tired to finish off his opponent. “Another point is that these men are never wholly masochists. Besides the kick ‘ they get out of taking punishment they must also have the desire to inflict it. Scientists eall this sadism, after the Marquis de Sade, who, in his notorious memoirs, told of. his uncivilized pastimes, “When a fighter has accumulated the stimulating force of blows which have landed upon him, he is at the sem time beget- ting the desire to hurt his opponent. The constant pummeling stirs the wish to re- taliate and inflict pain end tLe combination of the second draft of energy, coupled with a touch of sadism, is what gives force to the knockout blow which olten lias in the fist of a battered fighter. “All other things being equal, the maso- chist is usually the most successful fighter, but, of course, if he is a stupid boxer or a poor ring general he may bs beaten by one who can take less punishment but who knows better how to inflict it. “To the eyes of the undiscerning public, fighters like Tunney and Dempsey seem to be miles apart in their natures, but both men rose to the top of their profession by virtue of the common fact that they can take pun- ishment and like it. “Tunney may be an inteJlectua!l and Demp- sey a roughneck, but thev are both maso- chists to a great degree Ycu might never Suspect it under Dempsey'’s pugilistic ex- terior, but he is a very emoticnal person, He hides a reservoir of feeling, which, if it had been properly developed, might have made him a prominent figure in fields where feel- ing and imagination count mest. “Watch a novice in the ring. He wades in without science, eager to hit and not caring if he is hit in return. He backs out of a clinch with fists flying. The cheers of his friends drive him on to reckless expendi- ture of his strength. The effective life of a fighter is rarely more than ten years, and if the novice keeps up this wasteful way of fighting he never gets to the top. This is where brains and experience begin to have ' value. ‘The man learns to be calculating, to conserve ‘his energy. not to take too many punches unless he can return better ones in exchange, and this control of the brain is mecessarygto husband the strength of the r £@ne4 fighter. “When he learns to control his move- ts, then the combination of masochism, > “which makes it possible for him to take Be _ and the spur of sadism, which ee him to punish bis opponent, makes _~ him one of the greatest of fighters. — > Often when a ighter isknock- ed down tie mental processes of the brain cease to function, but 1f the mechanical center of the brain has not been deranged he may struggle to his feet and continue the fight while virtually unconscious. (¢TVROM this courage rarely enters in the discussion as a factor to be reckoned with. It bravery which makes him masochism and sadism, But when an old hand at the game deliberately lays himself open to one punch which he knows will hurt in order to give another, then the element of courage may be important. But the aver age fighter who can go on for round after round and not know when he is licked doesn’t know it hurts him, and he has a kind of body able and willing to take the grueling wear and tear of the prize ring without wincing.”’ Dr. Jobn B. Deaver, who is a surgeon of international fame and has been called to the White House for consultation upon crit- ical occasions, has-a ringside seat at every important fight. Standpoint the question of is not fight on, buf “When Dempsey put Tunney down in the seventh the champion was not knocked out,” says Dr. Deaver. “Ef sat close enough to touch the canvas. I could see Tunney’s eyes. He could have risen to his feet before the count of nine, but he preferred to take thal long in order to recover as much strength as possible before resuming the battle. ‘‘What happened to Dempsey later shows that Tunney was not knocked out. In the excitement of the struggle fighters don’t know they are hurt. They don’t feel the pain, They seem insensitive to blows which would caues an ordinary man to howl with anguish. “When I saw Tommy Loughran fight Lomski I was rooting for Tommy because he was from Philadelphia, but when Lomski lifted him off his feet and sent him to the floor, I thought Tommy was done when I saw the boy turn half over with one leg rising high in the air. “Then Loughran took another rap, and after these knockdowns he came back and gave Lomski the beating of his life. It takes a fighting heart to absorb punishment, to lift oneself from the floor after knockdowns and then to go in and finish off an opponent. “Fighters differ so much in physical powers and stamina that it is difficult to ex- plain just what it is that gives one fghter the fortitude to fight on and lets another suc- cumb after a few taps by his contestant. “The mechanism of the various parts of the brain which sends the messages to the muscles is not yet completely understood, and when you have the complex problem of separating courage from strength and physi- cal condition, and the places where the blows have landed and their reaction upon nerve centers, it is hardly possible to make a state- . ment which will be entirely accurate. “Any lover of boxing who saw Dempsey land a blow in his opponent’s solar plexus as he did on Firpo knows what a disastrous punch this is. A man just buckles up, there is a momentary collapse of strength, and if the fighting punch can be landed then it is_ easy to end the struggle seated by Dr, Deaver’s side al many great battles is John A, also a prominent surgeon, connected with St Mary's which is easily ringside usually Dr. Boger, Hiospital, who offers an explanation understood by laymen of why men can fight on after knockdowns. “The forepart of the brain is the seat of the mental faculties,’’ says Dr. Boger. “The top of the head covers the motor and the base of the brain controls the feel- ings and passions, ‘This is roughly tribution of the sections ment and conduct the dis- controlling move. “To attempt to understand what happens, one must realize that the top of the brain, the motor centers, operates the mechanical movements of the body, A shock from a hlow may put the brain out of action. It may be temporarily in a fog or in a condition like sleep. The doors of the brain cells which open out upon the world have been slammed shut, ek 2 dl at time the mechanical section continues to function. And we have the condition where a man is ap- parently in a daze, but he keeps on making the motions of fighting which he made be- fore his mental] control went out of operation. “Wighters who are drunk with punishment keep their fists up, punch and ward off blows, because the mechanical operator of the brain is aware from the opponent’s movements that these motions are necessary. At the same time the passions and feelings are urgently prodding the body to beat the man who has done this to the other part of the brain. “While this is going on, the fog of the mental lode is clearing, and soon the fighter is once more in possession of al] his faculties and meeting his opponent with his former skill and energy. “Another point to consider, which may illuminate the situation for the layman, is in the comparison of the brain cells with the cells of a storage battery, “Fighting drains the power and strength of the cells. The sudden blow which makes a man unconscious is a shock which com- pletely empties the cells. The human current is short-circuited at high voltage and the reservoir of muscular power and tenacity is empty. “Everybody who owns a radio set knows that weak batteries will not last as long as heavy-duty units, and some batteries generate current more quickly than others. “This is also true of the human body. Some fighters come back faster and stay on their feet longer because their batteries have more voltage to begin with, and they regen- erate energy more quickly . -after a sudden drain. thinking * . * e the same Science biisibibiin Why Some Fighters Are Able to Survive Terrific Blows and Return to the Battling Again, While Others Seem to Succumb Easily to Less Devastating Attack, Unable to Come Back cenlers eel jgiK Benny Leonard was a pugilist who pos- sessed the fighting heart, that unbreak- able spirit which kept him battling re- gardless of the punishment he received. “Another point to remember about Knock- outs is that while the shock on the frontal lobes will not put a man out of action so long as his motor cells have not been affected, a shock which affects the mechanical section will stop the human machine even if the brain is eager to make the body go on fighting. : “Such explanations are physical and are offered so that the method of bodily opera- tion may be understood, but from long ez- perience at prizefights I believe that the human spirit is a great factor in the success of pugilism. The man who has stamina and endurance needs also the unconquerable spirit to win, . 7° 6 * ‘¢—IENNY LEONARD once told me, ‘My op- ponent may be heavier, but I’ve got it here,’ tapping his heart, and I believe that is why Benny has been a great fighter and has been able to put it over heavier men. “Of course, a fighter needs skill and strength, but he must have an unbreakable spirit. Recently a boy named Ignatia came to me for the treatment of a broken hand. He refused to keep it in splints more than ten days. ‘‘He wanted to get back to the ring. Al- though only fighting in local clubs, that boy has the stuff that wins. ‘My friends think I'm a wonderful fighter,’ he said, ‘and I have great ambitions for the future.’ '“Dr, Deaver and I like to ait close to the ring because we want to be near enough to 3) 4 Vi hear the expression, “a glutton for punishment?” tdok all he had and came back for more?” If you can take a knockout wallop and rally to continue in the battle, you are what the scientists call a “masochist.” This is a fellow who likes to take a lacing. blow that lands on him. He is stimulated by punishment. A Durant in Wall Street, a Bryan in politics—any chap in any walk- of life who keeps coming back for more—is a masochist. They are at their best when drunk with their opponents’ punches. Gluttons for Punishment Also, “he He gets a kick out of every Successful fighters are merely spurred on by the punishment they reccive, and hard blows pep them up to greater en- deavor.

Ain ladle cuiiiavanttt iiioinntaiavincutuiodagiiii » The bark of the dog days is worse than their bites, if you watch your step, says Dr. Ruth F. Wadsworth, eminent physician, in the current issue of Collier's Weekly. “The temperature of our food doesn’t mat- ter much one way or the other,” she says. “The idea that the temperature of the food makes much difference in its digestibility is not held by physicians. Hot food is supposed to be more Irritating to the stomach and therefore for the sluggish appetite may stimulate the gastric secretion more than cold food. In conditions where the stomach is diseased and chronically irritated, iced food is served continuously as a part of the healing treatment. For the normal person I believe personal preference js as good a rule as any to go by. If you like hot food better than cold, by all means eat it; and vice versa. “The great thirst that possesses us in sum- mer has a firm physiological foundation,” de- clares this noted authority. “How can we lose our 14 per cent of heat by evaporation,” she asks, “if we don’t supply the body with water to evaporate?” The stout person whose problem of heat regulation is worse than that of the thin person, because the layer of fat in his skin prevents easy radia- tion and conduction of heat, is inclined to be prejudiced against water on general prin- ciples, thinking that it increases bulk and weight, and he needs it badly in hot weather. because his evaporating surface is relatively large. For all people two quarts of fluid daily is a summer minimum. Dr. Wadsworth declares that “the distate for heavy foods, or large amounts of any food, which is se common in hot weather, is ins rtd an instinctive response of the body to % side heat. As heat production depends part on the amount and kind of food eaten,.o way of regulating it is to eat sparingly. -¥ need not be afraid of being undernourish if we eat our one egg, one small portiom meat, one potato and a pint of milk dai After that much is eaten—provided, — course, we are not digging subways or 16? ing steamships—the rest is velvet.

Here, in the depths of the primeval forest, unexploited by any save the hunters and the folk who collect rubber, lived, out of contact with their neighbors and terribly jealous of interference, a certain sub-tribe who were called the Bald Men of I’fubi. They made no wars, stole neither goats nor women, lived without salt and existed without any offense to any. ~~ These bald men—and it is a curious fact that the heads even of the youth of the tribe shone like polished ebony—gave no trouble; carried no spears to the killing of their neigh- bors; paid their taxes regularly; were clean “and industrious; and if they practiced secret rites and concocted strange medicaments, such as had never been heard of by any other people of the river, there was no blood-let- ting, so far as was known, and they served a most useful purpose, in that they stood, In their jealousy, as guardians of the Pans waich atretched behind the forest, an unnatural plain, innocent of bush or tree for 40 square miles. It was a legend amongst all the Euro- peans of the coast that the Pans were rich in alluvial gold. There came into this quiet land a white man, who called himself Odwall. It had once been Obenwitsch, but, for reasons of his own, he had Anglicised himself, taken off the beard he had been in the habit of wearing, and thus, outwardly changed, strayed into the region of the Pans, which are approachable only through the country of the Bald Men. These quiet souls, who believed that there were only three white men in the world, teceived Mr. Odwall with the profound respect and dazed wonder which a church convention might offer to a second, and hitherto, unsus- pected, Archbishop of Canterbury. He sat down and talked to them in their own language, and they gave a great feast and a dance of girls, and they told him cf their mystery, and why their heads were bald: but in this he was not greatly inter- ested. Tactfully and gradually, he led the talk round to the subject of the Pans and the yellow dust that could be washed from the dark earth: but ch’uga shook his head at the first word of it. “Lord,” said he, a trifle shocked, ‘these things we do not talk about, because oft Sandi our father, nor do dig into the earth, for that also is forbidden. And when strange men come and make little holes in the ground, we fight them with our spears and they run away.” Mr. Obenwitsch (we had better call him Odwall) was terribly interested but asked no further questions. He had, he calculated, at least three months to get on better terms with ‘the chief, and he could afford to bide his time. It was unfortunate for him that, the fol- lowing morning, as he strolled through the tree-fringed village street he met another white man, who walked out of the forest. fol- lowed by six tarbashed soldiers. Mr. Odwall did not swoon, he made a little grimace which might have been mistaken for a smile and touched the rim of his none-too-clean helmet. ‘“Jood morning, Mr. Commissioner,” he said. ‘‘My name’s Odwall es ‘Your name is Obenwitsch,’’ said Sanders, with his hard little smile. ‘‘Three years ago I had the satisfaction of kicking you out of this country—and I have an idea that I’m going to repeat that process, but this time, I think, the kick will be harder.” Mr. Obenwitsch went down the river, a prisoner under escort, to headquarters, and forthwith was committed to prison. Sanders did not explain to the Bald Men why he had taken his fellow countryman away, for it was his business to keep up the end of the European race, and Mr. Odwall knew him well enough to be certain of this reticence. He served his six months and was deported to England, for he was a British _ subject. _ He came to London with enough money to hire a flat in Jermyn street and to arrange with a high-class stationer for certain print- ing. For six months he had sat in prison, @lanning and replanning and his scheme was -complete in all respects save one, and this “deficiency could easily be remedied. He called to him a financier. - He had met Mr. Wilberry in one of those social capillaries which are erroneously de- ‘scribed as night clubs. Mr. Wilberry was ‘a well-to-do manufacturer whose chief char- ‘acteristic was that he hated Sheffield. His -hatred was such an obsession with him that he would have gone a hundred miles out of his way to avoid the town. -. He was not only a manufacturer, but an experimental chemist, having taken a very “high science degree, and his hobby and pre- occupation was a new kind of steel which was to revolutionize the trade. If the truth be told, he was a better business man than a scientist, and when, at the cost of a hundred ousand pounds, he produced in triumph a steel which was at once stainless and malle- able, and offered Sheffield the privilege (in exchange for a small royalty which a disin- terested statistician calculated would bring | him in about three millions a year), of manu- facturing this super article, Sheffield was at first interested, then skeptical; applied tests, with unfortunate results, and the end of it was that Sheffield manufacturers in council ropa and aided and supported by their al experts, spoke slightingly of Wil- berry Steel, refused either to purchase or to nufacture it, and there the matter finish- d, in so far as they were concerned. Mr. Wilberry never forgave Sheffield, he bathed Sheffield with a loathing beyond the inderstanding of any who have not seen the iid of their dreams massacred by cruel futhless hands. tn his stuffy little sitting room Sravicokink ‘ ern 1 street Odwall expanded his scheme. old interests voryhody,” he said. “It “ ito nan iN TF idvadduiidetca tk Ht Hy SMM MA A erent PERT hd HEH eH ica i MN interests you, Mr. Wilberry, it interests the boy in the street... ” He proceeded to tell the story of the Pans, and his audience was impressed. Mr. Wilberry was a moist, red-faced man who smoked large cigars and wore white spats and a diamond ring. Smallish eyes and little black moustache complete the descrip- tion. He was very rich and very skeptical, until Mr. Odwall showed him a little bag filled with dull yellow grains. “I managed to wash out a bucketful of dirt and that is what I got,” he said impres- sively. “~ The interested financier did not ask how it came about that Mr. Odwall had succeeded in smuggling his find through the rigorous searchings which are part of prison disci- pline. If he had asked, he would have been told an elaborate lie, for the gold was bought from a man in Dakka on the homeward voyage. “I don’t mind putting a couple of thou- “Those sand into it,” said Mr. Wilberry. thick-headed swine of Sheffield have almost ruined me—and some day, my boy, I’m go- ing to get back on ’em! (I’d give half a mil- lion to twist the blighters!” His statement did not accord with his protestations of poverty, but Odwall was not the type of men who boggled at an tincon- sistency. His plan was a simple one. “There a kid officer out there,’ he said, “who would fall for anything with a tale to it. In June Sanders goes up to the Ochori for his palavers with the northern chiefs, and he’ll take Capt. Hamilton with him.” He explained Hamilton’s position and iden- tity. “This time I’ll have three months’ clear run of the territory, and if Ll get on the right side of this kid Tibbetts, I’ll have the claims staked and _ registered before Sanders is back.”’ “Does Tibbetts know you?” f “Not from a crow. He was away when Sanders brought me down river, and he wasn’t in the territory when I was trading there. Leave it to me.”’ Bones was surprised at nothing except the inability of his superior officer to appreciate his undoubted musical gifts, But the letter from. ‘‘Mr. Walter Bagen” was so unexpected and so unusual of character that Lieut. Tib- betts, of the King’s Houssas, spent a whole hour blessing his own soul. Nevertheless, he lost no time in replying. “Dear Sir,’ he wrote, ‘I aave the honnor to acknowledge the receit of your leter your letter. Of the 15th ul- timus. I thank you also for refereing reffering to me as a great authiroty authroity anthoritey)’’ — Bones had never solved the mystery of the inverted comma—‘‘on the subject of archae- ology.” (He got this one right because he copied it letter by letter from his correspondent’s typewritten epistle.) “IT will certainley take a note of any- thing annything unusual in the way of Roman remains Romain remains eve- dence of early civilisation et cet et cet. I thank you for illecting me a Fellow of the Central African Arkilogicle So- ciety” (this time he wrote the word from memory), ‘‘and anything I can do to help foreward the great course of Arch of the Society you can depend on me doing. Trusting you are well. Sincerely, A. TIBBETTS, Lt. r AS SL At tiffin, Bones mentioned his new honor very casually. “Fellow of the what?’ asked Hamilton, his dark face screwed up inqulringly. Bones raised his eyebrows and looked hurt. “I only ask,” said Hamilton, ‘‘because [’ve had a sarcastic letter from the Ac- countant-General, who wants to know how many ‘Is’ there are in ‘flannel’ 7 Lieut. Tibbetts fixed his monocle more firmly in his eye. “TI usually use three, but there may be four, Ham,” he said, with gentle reproach. ‘“‘The point is, flannel shirts have nothin’ to do with archy—you know the word.”’ The essay on “Roman Fossils and Other Articles of Ancient Origin” has never seen the light, because Mr. Bagen, whose other name was Odwall, was not really interested in archaeology, no matter how it was spelt, and the society had no existence, except on the note paper he had printed for the purpose of conferring the Fellowship upon Bones. Thi letter which came back, and which was headed in heavily embossed type: “The Institute of the Central African Archaeological Society, 943 Jermyn street. President: The Duke of ........ Secretary: Walter S. Bagen, F. C. A. A.

It was on a hot day in June that the repre- sentative of the Central African Archaeologi- cal Society walked slowly up the beach, where he had been landed from a surf-boat, a prayer on his lips that nothing had happened to in- terfere with Mr. Sanders’ departure. Mr. Odwall wore white duck, a white helmet, his shoes were white—he was in his person an illustration of scientific purity. His heavy horn-rimmed glasses, no less than the volume he carried under his arm, gave him a grave and studious appearance. : “Sandi he no lib, sah,” said the Houssa sergeant who met half way, and Mr. Odwall’s mind was relieved of a heavy burden. “Mili- tini he no lib, sah; he go long time up river. Mistah Tibbetti you soe um sah?” Odwall spoke Coast Arabic very well: he preferred for the moment to be a stranger to the land and to its many vernaculars. Bones was lying on a long chair on the stoop, his large feet elevated to the rails. He scrambled up at the sight of the visitor. “Bless my soul, dear old secretary!” he gasped, when the honor which was being done to him was revealed. “Never had the slight- est idea you were coming. * * *” “a villi Menem tne ee sixth ARG & THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, mi nN TH HAT iH) AAA aaa alee i] ‘AUGUST 5, 1928.

I'd love to go with you, but I’m sort of stuck here till Mr. Sanders returns.’’ Odwall hired paddlers the next morning, loaded his kit in the center of the canoe, and, himself comfortably ensconced under a palm-leaf roof, he left on his journey, In seven days he landed at the nearest point to the Pans and made his way through the forest. On the twelfth day he reached the village of the Bald Men and was effusively welcomed. For the greater part of a week he sat down in the village, spending most of his days wandering in the desolation of the Pans— but everywhere he went the old chief ac- companied him, “Lord, this is a bad place to go,”’ said the old man, “for there are ghosts and terrible ju-jus hiding in the ground. Also it is the word of Sandi, our lord, that no white man shall walk here because of the evil which will follow. Come with me into the green woods and I will show you a little flower that gives men great courage if it is picked by the light of the moon and boiled in a big pot * * *” Mr. Odwall had no need for such a stimu- lant. The dope he wanted lay in the black earth. One night, when his stay had lasted nearly a fortnight and he had, by the exercise of his ingenunty, secured and washed a bucket of earth, without, however, discovering the slightest trace of gold, the old chief paid a visit to the hut, at the door of which Mr. Odwall sat, moodily surveying the domestic life of the village,” *‘Master,” he said, in his secretive way, “because you are a friend of Sandi | will give you a great treasure.” He looked around to see if he could be overheard, and Mr. Odwall’s heart leapt, “This is our mystery which you know, It was whispered to me by my father, the great Chief K’suro, and | also will tell it to my son when the hand of death is on my face.” From under his chief’s robe of dingy skins, he brought a little clap pot which was fAlled to the brim with a greenish-yellow substance of the consistency of butter. Mr, Odwall’s jaw dropped. For one wild moment of exhilaration he had expected the withered hand to come out of the robe holding a small bag of gold. “This is our wonder,” said the chief in a hushed voice. ‘Because of this we are dif- ferent from all other men.” He caught hold of his guest’s unwilling hand, smeared a little of the green butter on his hairy arm, and then, with the edge of his robe, wiped it clean. Where there had been hair was a smooth surface. _ “We are bald because of this magic,” said A ) the fat this we pot, with the red berries——” Mr. Odwall yawned. “Tell me tomorrow, -chief.’’ He had learnt all he The third hole—that of goats. and boil in a big know. was the third shallow pan, four miles away. That night, when the village slept, he crept forth from his hut, carrying a canvas bag which contained a big trowel, he went through a fringe of wood- land ar? came to the desolation. Working his way round, by a circuitous route, he reached ‘‘the third hole.”’ The ground was soft and friable, yielding to his trowel with- out calling for any exceptional effort of strength. He got through the top layer and struck what he guessed was the alluvial patch, and, opening the mouth of his bag, he half filled it. He tested its weight; he could carry that back to the village and could wash the dirt at his leisure. He had risen to his feet and was twisting the neck of the bag, preparatory to hoisting it on his back, when he looked around and saw a figure standing in the moonlight. It was the old chief. “O ko!” said Ch’uga, dismally. ‘“‘This is a bad palaver, and I will send to Sandi his sad news. Master, you will empty your sack.’’ “Empty nothing!” snarled Odwall. And then, in Bomongo, he tried to excuse his presence. But as he sought to pass the cus- todian of the Pans, the old man gripped him by the arm, very gently but very strongly. “Master, you do not go hence,” he said. Odwall tried to wrench himself free, and, finding this difficult, encumbered as he was, dropped his bag and pushed the old man back. He saw the glint of a killing spear raised in warning, and struck savagely with his sharp-edged trowel. The blow got home and the old man, stumbling to his knees, fell an inert heap. Odwall cursed his folly, and, going down on to his knees, turned the chief on to his back. He was bleeding freely, and at the sight of the still face the adven- turer felt a cold chill run down his spine. Sanders would be merciless if he caught him now. There would be a rope and a tree, and his would be a name blotted out and for- gotten. He took out a handkerchief and bandaged the wound as well as he could, and then, with his sack over his shoulder, and wet with per- spiration, he went back to the village and, packing his grip, struck the path which led to the coast. For three days he toiled on with- out carriers or bearers, in the blazing heat of the tropical sun, fearful every moment of hearing the patter of footsteps behind him, sleeping on his feet as he staggered under the heavy burden of his treasure. At last he came to where he had left his paddlers, and, without more ado, he heaved bag and suit case to the bottom of the canoe, before he dropped like a log into his place in the stern; before the paddlers bexan their chant, he was asleep. When he awoke it was early morning, and the canoe was tied up to the side of a little wood. , He saw the red glow wanted to Ry SET eras Soe ene” at oe a i ee ee a aa ‘important enough to crime, Perhaps Ch’uga was not dead.

A big German steamer had dropped anchor, and the surf-boat was being lowered. The departure of Mr. Walter S. Bagen, secretary of the Central African Archaeolo- gical Society, was something in the nature of a disappointment to Bones, who had pre- pared quite a lot of interesting but inaccurate information upon a hypothetical Greek occu- pation of the country, based largely on the presence of a Corinthian pillar which sup- ported the veranda of the residency, and LALLA regenaegeneart TAL rreegetey ITryeT” VOTOAAEET PETER ETT PPE li WAT ih tN iit bbe ate a : att Hd " t " Hi HH AMAA ari iH ttm iat) il AH ttt " n 1S ' ii iii ili ih iii i iii ivi ita gic suai hii ait it i i it iy inure which, {£ the truth be told, had been brought to the country by Sanders’ predecessor, Mr. Wilberry came to the _ reoccupied Jermyn street flat, well aware that he had to listen to a story of failure; for he was a busi- ness man, and was quite capable of interpret- ing a letter which began: “I have got back, and although the results of my visit were not all I could: have desired * * *”’ “IT am going to tell the truth,” said Odwall, when the red-faced man had settled himself comfortably in the only armchair large enough to seat him. Oddly enough, the story the returned wan- derer told was substantially true—it wag the easiest and the most plausible explanation ef his abortive effort. “Bad luck,’”’ said Mr Wilberry, who had lost money before. “But [| should «have thought that if you’d given the old bird enough money he’d have helped you.” Odwall shook his head. “You don’t know the influence that swine Sanders has over the uatives,’ he said. And then he che rebusehae “Here’s something that will interest you.’ He went into his bedroom, brought back @ small jar of native make and showed the greenish-yellow ointment.

Paris (A.P.).—-The present season is dis- tinctly one of revivals. One of the ele- mentary things about fashions is that they eome in cycles and that one season may adore just that which its predecessor has spurned. The renaissance of cotton fabrics is due in the revolving cycle and has gained momentum because the thermometer remains at unusual- ly high registers for France. Linen and pique lead the revivals. Long linen blouses are worn over navy light weight woo! skirts or skirts of black and white plaid. With these, narrow belts of navy blue or black leather are the proper finish. There are entire dresses made of linen and pique, with tailored stitching, hats, bags, and shoes to match. Quilted linen coats complete these costumes. The light weight wool frocks which many women choose for yachting have collars, vests and cuffs of pique and organdie with lots of hand work. Organdie frills give a crisp charm to tailored attire.

Your cellar can be kept as clean and attractive as your kitchen—a place of which you can be proud instead of ashamed. Your cur- tains, drapes, ceilings and walls remain spotless, thus Saving you the continual expense of redecorating and cleaning. Furthermore, with an ARCOIL you have more room in your basement, since the fucl oil tanks are buried in the ground outside the house. This permits you to convert the space formerly utilized for coal storage into an extra room such as a den or play room for the youngsters.

Louis Johrden, Post Staff Photographer deep, cool shade of the veranda... LATE in the afternoon when the heat of the day is spent you sit on the veranda reading a summer book. Perhaps a few friends call. Perhaps you are there alone and a neighbor comes across the lawn. And you welcome your friend. These little occasions offer an appropriate time to serve “Canada Dry.” It is a delicious beverage, with a subtle gingery taste, with a dryness and thirst-quenching allure which in- stantly appeals. The delicate flavor of “Canada Dry” is partly due to pure Jamaica ginger; partly to the blend- ing and balancing, under rigid laboratory meth- ods, of the purest ingredients. It has no bite because it contains no capsicum (red pepper). “Canada Dry” ts mild, mellow and “dry.’’ In short, it is a real ginger ale. And because of its secret method of carbonation it is especially good for you in summer-time. Order “‘Canada Dry” in the convenient Hostess Package of 12 bottles. —Then you always have sqme on hand. ‘CANADA DRY™ Reg. U. S. Pat.

Dear Editor: One of my friends was spending the day. with my sister and me and for our own amusement ws got out some late Junior Posts. After reading them we decided that we should like to write some poems. My sister has won her bronze mem- bership pin and I have both the bronze and gold pins. 1 have worn these one by one as they have come and would now like to know if they are to be worn together. Is it permissible or desirable to wear them both? I am very proud of them and want to thank you for them. I am now looking forward to the time when I win a money prize. My sister and I have interested many of cur friends in your paper (or rather our paper), and they are all enthusi- astic contributors and are doing their best to make it a lasting success. It is certainly a good thing for The Wash- ington Post boys and girls. Yours sincerely, BARBARA B. SMITH. Transmitters Too. Teacher: I wish you and your little brother would stop moving your ears.

He was appointed to the United States Military Academy at West Point at the age of 16. He graduated in 1828 and entered active Army as lieutenant. His assigned duty was on the West- ern frontier, where he took part in the campaigns of the Indians and was pres- ent when Black Hawk was captured. In 1835 he resigned from the Army and married the daughter of Zachary Taylor. In about four months his wife was taken sick by a fever which caused her death, and Davis barely escaped from the fate. Before this took place Davis and his wife had settled down on a cotton plantation in Mississippi. After the death of his wife he trav- eled for about a year to restore his health, After traveling he returned to the plantation in 1836, where he stayed for two or three years, farming, read- ing and studying political economy and philosophy He received considerabie wealth by this After about seven years he entered the field of politics.

Franklin Pierce, whose administra- tion was in 1853, had Davis as Secre- tary of War. and he did his duty well for four years. He helped get an in- crease in the Army, organized engineer companies and strengthened the “fron- tier defenses. He was reelected to Sen- ate. He became a spokesman and great man by these ways. John C. Calhoun had passed away. Davis became an able and eloquent senator. When the _ antislavery question reached the crisis Abraham Lincoln was presiding. Davis again resigned from the Senate. In 1861 he delivered his last speech, which was on the Southern cause. When he returned to Mississippi he heard of his election as president of the Confederate States. This election was provisional. but on February 18, 1861. he was elected permanently. In 1881 he published the “Rise and Fall of the Confederate Government.” Davis acted with honor, dignity, sincerity and devotion to principles during the war. Davis was taken prisoner soon after Lee’s surrender and put in Fort Mon- roe. He remained for two years in prison Horace Greeley got Davis out with bail. He retired during his last years. On December 6, 1889, he died and was buried in New Orleans, but about si? years later his body was removed tc Richmond. A monument is erected there for him. A monument is to Win- nie, his daughter, who is buried there also. Davis had married the daughter of William B. Howard in 1844, who wrote a biography of the great South- ern leader and Confederate president. MARGARET V. SMITH (age 12). 1010 Prince Edward street, Fredericks- burg, Ya. Migration of the Birds.

If you come home any later than fifteen minutes you'll wish you hadn't.” “Oooh, I'll come soon, Miss Beauller,” said Marian So Marian started the store. “Two pounds of sugar,” said. “Certainly,” said the grocer. On her way home she suddenly stopped short. “Oooooh, look what it is!’’ she cried. “A pocketbook!” ‘Let me see what it says. Why, it says Ed- ward Loren, 1239 Bowen street north- west. I'll ask Miss Beauller,;if I can return it.” So when she got home she asked Miss Beauller if she could return it. “Let me see if it’s worth your time first. Well, I should think it is. Ten, twen- ty-five, fifty dollars! Well, run along and don’t dawdle on the way.” “All right, Miss Beauller,” said Marian. Ten minutes later she was ringing the bell of Mr. Loren’s house. The door was opened by a pert maid, who was not at all pleased at the idea of such a little girl ringing the bell. “Hardly worth my time, I say,’’ she said, when she heard what Marian wanted. “Master’s been cross as a bear all morning and has taken my head off for no fault of mine ever since he came in. Wait a minute.” The maid pres- ently returned and told Marian that she might see Mr. Loren. When Marian entered the room Mr, Loren turned as white as a sheet and looked as if he might faint. When he had recovered himself, he asked Marian what her mother’s and father's names were. “Col. Ernest Lewis Walker.” “And what was your mother’s name?’ “Anna Belle Loren Waiker.”’ At this Mr. Loren started in, “Just as I thought! Your mother was my sis- ter. You are the image of your mother. Where is she? What! You are an Or- phan. That settles it! I shall adopt you at once!” Marian was now on her uncle’s lap, saying, “Wasn't that a great discovery for me to find your pocketbook, Uncle Ed?” JESSE REDFIELD (age 10), 1219 Jefferson street northwest. “se .

George and Robbie Harper sat on the porch of their country nome talking. They were talking about their big brother, Jack, who was going to col- lege the week after next. “IT wish we could give him a party,” said Robbie, a youngster of 7 years. “Maybe we can,” said George, a sturdy boy of 9 years. “How much money have you, Bob?” I have about $5.” “T haveonly $3," said Robbie. ‘That's not enough, I'm sure. Let’s ask mother what to do, she always helps us out,” George. Robbie agreed. the house ran the two boys Straight to their mother they went. “What is it, sons? she asked, putting dowm the book which she had been reading when her sons came into the room. The boys at once toid their plan of having a farewell party on their big brothér’s departure. Mother was very much pleased with the boys’ plan and at once told them where they could pick some berries, she said she would give the boys $1 a quart for them. The boys were well pleased and the next day after breakfast the boys ran off with their pails. That evening they came home and showed the berries to their mother, who gave them, as she had promised, $1 a quart for the berries. Every day after that the boys did the same thing until one night two days before their brother’s departure they came into the room where their father was sitting. “Daddy,” said George, taking the money which he and Rob had gotten for picking berries and putting it his father’s lap, “please count this money and see if its enough for Jack’s party.” Their father, who had heard about the party, went in the library to count the money. The boys waited anxiously for him. When he came in he had a sad iook Into | on his face. “I'm sorry, sons,”’ he said, “but you haven't quite enough money for all the things you need.” George looked very disappointed and Robbie looked as if ready to cry. Just then mother’s cheery voice was heard in the doorway. She had heard her husband's last remark and feit very sorry for her two little sons who had worked very hard for that party. “Never mind, dears,” she said, “it is time for you to go to bed. If you are good boys and go to bed maybe some good fairy will give you the money you need.” The boys did go to bed, but they which was bordered by a “Secret Gar-|. were very sad. The next morning Rob- bie was the first to wake up. On getting dressed he happened to go’ near the bureau. There was a lot of money. Rob’s happy cries woke George up. He was quickly told about the money. George and Rob were 60 excited they could hardly dress. At last they were dressed. Then run- ning downstairs they ran on to the breakfast porch where their mother and father were eating breakfast. “Here, dad,” said Rob, “the fairy did come, take this and see if its enough?” Father counted the money and then said with a smile, “My sons, I am glad to say this is just enough money, I will buy the things you need in town to- day. And I will fix the place for the party. Be sure, boys, you don’t let Jac- know.” “We won't.” they promised, happily. You may be sure they had a fine farewell party for Jack, and that the big brother was well pleased with it. Jagk went away thinking of his brother’s party while the boys were home thinking of the good fairy, not knowing it was their own good father and mother.

(Honorable Mention.) the kine’s jester, was walk- ing along by the crystal stream in the beautiful woods just outside the pal- ace. 4 He was musing because he, who was real king was only the king’s jester. He became very sad and walked along slowly, his gaze upon the bright wa- ters. He was thinking of his harsh Uncle Baculao, the king. He had taken the kingdom away from Pedro when he was a child and had made him a jester for life. As Pedro thus walked along he sud- denly noticed a bee which had fallen into the crystal waters. Again and again the bee vainly tried to free itself from certain death. At length Pedro could stand it no longer. Taking a small stick, he helped the bee out of the water. Then a wonderful thing happened. The bee became a beautiful fairy. She saw +he unhappy face of the Jester. She wished to help him, and asked why he was so sad. Pedro told her of his uncle, the king, and when he had fin- ished the fairy smiled and said: “I will give your throne back to you. One year from today you shall begin your reign and Biculao shall be your jester.’”’ Then the fairy Pedro, the himself, vanished. Eleven months passed by. Then one day the king became very sick.

So he Started on the journey in search for ; the magical herb Little did he know that his uncle was plotting against his life. King Ba- culao thought that he would soon die and then Pedro would become king. So decided to send him after the fantastic herb of his dream He thought Pedro would fall from the cliff and be killed. When the jester had come to the cliff he looked up, and to his great sur- prise he saw a beautiful green herb. It was almost at the top of the cliff and so high up that he would never be able to reach it. He sat down, not knowing what to do Suddenly he heard a soft voice calling ‘“‘Pedro.” He looked up, and there by the herb stood the fairy who had promised to restore his kingdom to him. She picked the plant and brought it to Pedro. He hurried back to the pal- ace. The king was extremely ill. He hardly knew who Pedro was. All the musicians and w'se men had gone away. Pedro held up the wonderful herb. Immediately the king was well again. He was angry that Pedro had returned and now was king. Pedro reigned for many years.

(Honorable Mention.) “Lucy, won't you come swimming with me?” called Jean as she came into Lucy’s house. “No; I am sorry,” said Lucy, “but I want to read as it has been my only chance in ages.” Jean sighed and went on her way. Finally Lucy selected the book she wanted and curled herself up in a cozy armchair and began to read her book. After reading her book for quite awhile Lucy became tired and laying her book aside, she drifted off into the great shining world of dreams. There she found Jean and Lucy eating break- fast at Lucy’s cousin’s house. Lucy asked her cousin if she knew of any place where they could go for a walk. Her cousin suggested going to the Brookvale mansion, about a walk of a mile and a half. After finishing their breakfast Lucy and Jean packed a little lunch, and after bidding their cousin good-by, started on their walk. They were both tired and hungry when they came to the Brookvale man- sion, The house was very large with many trees surrounding it. Jean and Lucy selected a shady spot and were eating their lunch when a call of “Help me! I’m in troub!e!’”’ came from within the house. The windows were ciosed so tne girls pried open a window and came into a large room where a parrot stood screaming at the top of its lungs, “Help me, I’m in trouble!” The girls felt like laughing for a mo- ment, when the thought of the open window came to their minds.

They must have been too slow, for a minute later the closet door was opened and they found themselves face to face with a lady and man, who asked the meaning of coming into their house. | Jean told the story and when she came to the part of the polly they broke into peals of laughter. and they said, “It’s all right, girls.” Just then Lucy woke to find herseif home and not in that awful Rouse with that polly that screamed at the top of its lungs, “Help trouble!” . me, I’m in | _ TILLIE GRITZ (age 13). > ss a | r ve El Tigre.

C It Takes C ourage to Say “No.” (Honorable Mention.) Bob Wilson was in a thoughtful mood. He was thinking of two en- tirely different sayings. The first had been spoken by his mother. who had told him not to go swimming. When his pals asked him to go for a swim with them Bob told them what his mother had said, but the boys re- plied: “Aw, come on, Bob. She will never know you went. It won’t hurt you any.” What chould he do? Should he dis- obey his mother and go swimming or Should he say, “No, I won't go?" By little acts of obedience and self- control he had formed a strong char- acter. Now a.temptation appeared and Bob’s courage proved its worth. It takes courage to say “No,” but Bob possessed the necessary quality. He refused to go with his tempters and again courage, that desired qual- ity, triumphed over temptation, which in many ~ases has been the victor. but which now saw defeat.

(Honorable Bsa h I love to feel the summer breeze And watch queer nature weave green leaves, Anc hear the winds go rustling through They, too, enjoy their lovely hue 16) Va I love to see the decp blue skies Under which the green hills lie, And flowers nodding to and fro, Without a single care or woe Sometimes I see the summer rain Dancing on the window pane Or see it marching down the lane Oh happy, carefree, nimble rain! I hear the squirrels prance through the woods To them the balmy air feels good; I hear the birds that call today For their mates to come and play And oh! how beautiful the night When the silver moon comes into sight And guards while summer's world does sleep. This world so beautiful, s0 sweet These make a world—a world of dreama, Where everything is true, it seems. True love and romance linger there, And lovers know no woe or care. So, summer, won’t you linger long In your robe of flowers gay, For the charms that now escort you With you will flee away—away! MYRTLE GRIFFIN (age 16). Upper Marlboro, Md. S = : NN Pe sx pes
