KELLOGG TO DISCUSS PLAN WHILE IN PARIS Washington’s Appeal to Some Diplomats Is Greater Than Geneva’s Claim. By ALBERT W. FOX. The next international conference on limitation of armaments, which is ex- pected to follow the Kellogg anti-war pacts, and the preliminary meeting of the league commission, may be held here at the National Capital before the end of the Coolidge admin{stration. Advices reaching here through diplo- matic channels indicate that Washing- ton rather than Geneva appeals to sev- eral of the interested nations as the appropriate meeting place, and it is understood that Secretary of State Kel- logg will be approached on this matter during his stay abroad. Mr, Kellogg will not, of course, dis- cuss this question in advance, nor will he comment on a matter which is more or less out of his control, ahd which 1s dependent upon further developments in the matter of adjusting the Anglo- Amerfcan differences over naval arms limitation. But the assumption Is jus- tified that Secretary Kellogg would be gratified if events should take a turn whereby the next conference would be held at the American capital. The reasons advanced by some of the diplomats in favor of Washington revert back to the success of the Wash- ington arms conference of 1921-22, as contrasted with the failure of the Geneva three-power naval conference and the futile efforts of the League of Nations to deal with the arms limita- tion problem. Geneva Atmosphere Blamed. One of the reasons ascribed to the failures at Geneva is linked with the so-called “Geneva atmosphere” which encourages a system of diplomatic bar- gaining with too many well-intentioned but conflicting viewpoints. Further- more, the European delegations are in such close contact with their respective foreign offices, and each foreign office is so beset with political currents and cross-currents that anything in the way of concession or compromise is reached only with the greatest difficulty. It has been noted, though not com- mented upon, that all the negotiations relative to Secretary Kellogg’s anti- war pacts were conducted here in Washington. Some of the foreign states- men believed it would be more expe- dient for Mr. Kellogg to leave certain matters pertaining to these pacts open until he reached Paris and could dis- cuss them on European soil. | Whatever view the Americyn Secre- tary of State may have had on these suggestions it is noted that he did not plan to leave the United States for Paris until all the negotiations were completed and the treaties ready for signature. There is no direct connection be- tween the signing of these treaties and the hoped-for conference on arms limi- tation. But it is conceded to be the fact that the interested nations are anticipating that the signing of the Kellogg pacts will prove an incentive to speeding up arms limitation plans. League Commission’s Plans. According to the present program, the preparatory commission of the League of Nations will take up the question of limitation of armaments this fall, and will devote particular at- CONTINUED ON PAGE 5, COLUMN 6.

EXPERT DENIES REPORT Paris, Aug. 14 (A.P.).—The interna- tional mystery of the death of Capt. Alfred Lowenstein, Belgian financier, while crossing the English Channel] in his private Airplane on July 4, today entered another phase when it was unofficially reported that toxic matter had been found in the viscera of his body. After Lowenstein’s body was found on July 19, Dr. Paul, chief chemical analyst for the Suretc Generale, the French Scotland Yard, undertook an exhaustive autopsy at the request of members of the Lowenstein family. It was said at the courthouse in Bou- logne, according to Le Matin, today that the expert’s report, which will not be made public, reveals “the existence of traces of a very charac- teristic toxic matter” in the viscera. Goes to Brussels Court. The ‘toxicologist’s report will be forwarded to the court in Brussels, which conducted an inquiry into the disappearance and death of the finan- cler. Should the report lead to a re- opening of the investigation it is likely to have diplomatic as well as judicial ramifications since the body was re- covered outside of ihe territorial waters of either England or France. “The newspaper Telegramme de Bou- logne tonight says that the local judge of the Boulogne court declared that the presence of poison in Lowenstein’s intestines did not necessarily indicate that the capitalist had died from that cause. It was known, he said, that Lowenstein was in the habit of taking aperient medicines and that he took a large dose on July 4 before leaving the Croydon Air Field. Such a strong dose, said the judge, could account for the accumulation of toxic substances in the banker's body. . Steps by rance Unlikely. It is regarded as unlikely here that France will take any further steps to- ward complete solution of the mystery. Since Lowenstein, a Belgian national, left England in a plane of British regis- tration, it is felt that further action, if any, must come from either Brussels or London. Kohn Abrest, director of the Tox!- cological Laboratory here to which the viscera of Lowenstein was sent for analysis, tonight said that the work CONTINUED ON PAGE 3, COLUMN 6. MILLS BODY DUG UP: OIATH BULLET FOUND Authorities, Reticent, Believed to Attach Great Impor- tance to Find. IS LIKELY TO BE EVIDENCE Disinterring the body of the late Edward L. Mills, prosperous Mont- gomery County dairy farmer, who was shot and killed on his farm on July 27, 1927, Maryland authorities yester- day found a sixth bullet that had been fired into the body of the farmer which was not located when five others were removed at an autopsy shortly after he was killed. Although authorities refused to com- ment on their latest step, it is believed that they attach great importance to the finding of the sixth bullet and that it, will be used as a salient point in the State’s evidence. Bullet Lodged Near Heart. Mills’ body was taken from its grave in Forest Oak Cemetery, at Gaithers- burg, yesterday morning, under the direction of State’s Attorney Robert B. Peter, jr. It was taken to the funeral! parlors of W. R. Pumphrey & Sons, at Rockville, and examined by Dr. W. T. Pratt. Montgomery County health of- ficer. State’s Attorney Peter subse- quently said that the sixth bullet had been found, but he refused to say where it was located, or discuss the object of the probe. It was learned, however, that the bullet was lodged in the left side of the back, under the ribs in the region of the heart, and could have caused Mills’ death. Body Returned to Grave. Although the projectile was said not to have borne any distinguishing marks, it is understood that it will be turned over for examination by the State’s firearms experts. The body was disinterred by Dr. Pratt and W. R. Pumphrey, assisted by County Policeman Robert Darby, and later was returned to the grave. Sted- man Prescott, attorney for Samuel T Robertson, who, was indicted last week at Rockville by a special grand jury for the murdér of Mills, seid that he had no comment to make concerning the latest move by the State’s attorriey. Robertson has been in jail at Rock- ville since his arrest April 18.

Smith,” the pastor was quoted. “If this is so, it is a clever conspiracy.” Dr. Straton, who acknowledged that the possibility of a conspiracy was somewhat remote, had been informed bya reporter that the latter had bought a quart of whisky over the hotel bar. The property passed to Dr. Straton six weeks ago and is to be used for the Greenwood Lake Christian Assembly headquarters, Although he did not indicate what action he might take aganist the man- ager of the hotel, the minister blamed delay in getting action on the repeal of the Mullan-Gage act, tie State’s en- forcement law.

They met several months be-~ fore he became world’s heavyweight champion, and they will not be married until the late fall or early winter. All this, and considerably more, can be stated on the authority of the amiable. Gene himself. The retired champion today shed his disguise of scrooge-like smoked glasses and with it his reported high-hat, made peace with the newspaper profession and cleared up numerous moot points in connec- tion with his romance, recently revealed by the formal announcement of’ his engagement by his flancee’s mother. d fighter-like, he developed some- thing he rarely had occasion to use in his ring career—an alibi. Those who have accused him of being a bit aloof, of high-hattjng, since he came into fame and fortune, and more particular- ly, since his engagement announce- ment, failed to take into account that he is “head over heels in love’’—the ex- pression is Gene’s own. “When one is in love as 1 am, one sometimes does things one can not ac- ~count for oneself,” explained the smil- ing, tanned, curly-haired, modest young million bewildering that she aire. “It is fairly should choose me from among all the men in the world, nh: said.

Social ratings don’t count for much in Tunney’s philosophy. He put it this way: “I am not particularly anxious to appear in the social register. I think there is only one real aristocracy—the aristocracy of the spirit. The spirit of people who are genuine is what appeals most to me in life. These people are rare enough, of course, but ope finds them everywhere, from the humblest to the most exalted places.” And as he spoke, James Joseph Tun- ney, champion Gene—that was, sat in the office of a Ein Mon that of a tabloid, at that, COOPER LEAl’s BEGG BY v,40 IN Onl) RAGE Gains in G. 0.

Aug. 14 (AP.).— Apparently recurving from the Gulf of Mexico to follow the course taken by last week’s storm, the tropical dis- turbance which blew up from south- west Florida last night was sweeping this vicinity today Reports from surrounding towns in- dicated that the new storm was caus- ing greater damage than that of last week and wire communications from here into parts of Florida were down.

Aug. 14 (A.P.).— After isolating a 150-mile stretch of the northwest Florida coast on its journey up the Gulf of Mexico last night, the tropical storm veered inland with hurricane force today and to- night was blowing across southern Georgia toward the Atlantic Ocean. Wire commuzuzications into the ne. storm area rapidly were going down before the advance of the ule, but firs’ reports said the di mage apparently will be greater than tha! done by last week's storm which followed virtually the Same course and recurving to the At- lantic. Cairo on the Georgia-Florida border sent word that business vir- tually had been demoralized by the gale and driving rains Quitman war dark- ened at noon and high wind already had done more damage to crops than did the storm last week. Borometers fell rapidly throughout the area, warn- ing the residents to prepare for the gale. Communication is Paralyzed. Communication to a section Florida Coast reaching from Cedar Keys to a point west of lachicola was paralyzed. Little fear for that section was felt, however, since indirect reports trom some of the coast towns said that small damage was done At Panama City, port town 25 miles west of Apalachicola, storm warnings had been taken down. Torrential rains accompanied the ad- vance of the storm, bringing flood threat to lowlands in northern Florida and southern Georgia, where highways were badly washed last week and where repairs to lines of communication have barely been made. Meanwhile, the Lake Okecchobee flood conditions held the spotlight in Florida, where other sections were recuperating from the two blows with- in one week. Direct reports from the inundated territory said that numerous families still were marooned by the ris- ing waters in Kissimmee River and other tributaries of the lake. The water level in the lake itself was said to be slowly rising, with the pros- pect of receiving a fresh deluge after 44 hours when the new flood crest will bear down into the great reservoir. Un- official reading of the water gauge in the lake was 17 feet, within 1 foot ot danger from overflow which would in- undate a stretch of country from Okeechobee City around the western shores of the lake to the vicinity olf LaBelle. of the above Apa- Point. % boty. eat eal ad inal 4 wri 4 “ * ‘THE WASHINGTON POST: WEDNESDAY, AUGUST ‘15, 1928. ea em tee ANCESTRAL HOME OF GOV.

Two stamps, of a pre- vious issue sold recently for $20,000 each. Stamp collectors from all parts of the United States and Porto Rico at- tended the auction. Bartering was brisk at first and many stamps, prin- cipally those of United States issue, sold for fabulous sums compared with their face value. As the auction pro- gressed, however, and the purses of many had dwindled, business slumped and many a rare old stamp passed into new handg for a song. Spencer Anderson, of New York City, was the lucky bidder on the Mauritius stamp. The Max Ohlman Agency, of New York, which conducted the auction, had hoped to get at least | half of the catalogue value for the | sticky little plece of paper, but the |owner had made the unfortunate mis- | take of ordering the stamp sold to the | highest bidder and it was |down at $111, | The rare old stamp was issued 177 | years ago on the Island of Mauritius, |a British possssion, near Madegascar. considered in perfect condition and there are only a few others of the same issue Known to be in exis- tence.

An in- vestigation like this is a difficult thing A written statement ‘has to be pre- pared from the testimony of each wit- ness, and then the witness must read it and make corrections before his acknowledgment is taken.” The greatest difficulty he has en- countered has been to get the wit- nesses to state what happened, and not their personal opinions, he said. District Attorney Rover said that he would not be prepared to make any statement or give out any information until Orcutt has reported to him, and he has carefully considered the facts in the report. Orcutt and Police Inspector L. J. Stoll were closeted in Orcutt’s office for & long period yesterday. While Orcutt made no statement as to the subject matter of their discussion, it was in- timated that they were comparing notes on the testimony given by the policemen connected with the affair. and that elicited by Stoll in his inves- tigation of the alleged beating.

When I[ was @ child, I rose to every one who was introduced to me, man or woman, when they were my seniors. Even now that I am grown, | must force myself to remain seated when a man very much older than | am is introduced. I have also felt the urge to give old men who appeared to be tired and going home from a day’s labor my seat in a crowded car. “Also, what seat should a man take when sitting in the back seat of a motor car with two women?” 1 am sure, D. A., that, rather than force yourself to remain seated in such a case, you will be quite correct in rising for an introduction to an older man It is a smal) courtesy that will hurt neither of you. And as for giving a poor old man your seat in a crowded car, it should show up to a vad advantage some of our young men who battle with older women for subway seats! Your question of where a man and two women should sit in the pack seat of a motor is of less importance in America than on the Continent, and in this day less than formerly. Common sense should control the situation. If the corner seats were more comfortable for a long drive, they would be offered to the women. If there were great |‘ weight on one side of the front seat. the man would balance it by sitting on the opposite side of the back seat. If it weré necessary for the man to get in and out of the motor more than once, he would sit nearest the right- hand door. Sitting beside one woman does not imply any lack of courtesy to the other.

The mother must see to it that this unquestioning obedience to matters of routine is firmly established—it its her job to see it through. When she says, “Come, Helen, time for your nap. Lie down and go to sleep. I'll tell you when you can get up,” then under ho circumstances must Helen be allowed to sit up and look at. picture books, or hop out of bed to get her blocks before napping time is over. If she says, By MRS. AGNES LYNE. ITTLE children have so many new “All right, Roger, you may have just one chocolate after lunch.” then one chocolate it must be no matter how much he may tease for more. If Jane knows that her toys ought always to be picked up before she runs out to play, then never must she be allowed to go before that task is done. It may seem of slight consequence to let Helen get up before time Just today, to give Roger his extra choco- late, or for once to excuse Jane from her task. But if the line of least re- sistance is followed today, tomorrow it will be necessary to discuss all the reasons for the regulation, to insist on obedience tn the face of probable re- sistance, perhaps even to punish. When the child knows that teasing is of no avail, that mother always sé¢es things through, tears, scenes and punish- ments are avoided and the child, hav- ing accepted certain conditions of his life, directs his energies toward more constructive activities. EAR Miss McDonald: I have D read daily with great interest your articles, and today you ask- ed, “What do you call duty?” In my opinion, a man should feel it is his duty to support his wife and there are, comparatively speaking, few wives who are unwilling to acrimp and save to get along on thelr husbands’ incomes; that if it is in any way possible to do 60. Of course, to at- tempt to rear two children on $32.50 a week is absurd. If I were this man’s wife, I should feel it not only my duty, but an absolute necessity, to add to my husband's income itn some way. How- ever, 1 do not favor a man’s marrying untill he can support a wife and family, for as a husband and father that is his duty; and to me, the duties of a wife are many, but, in short, they consist of maintaining a home in keeping with her husband’s income. [I know that sounds old-fashioned, but I shall remain single until I meet and fall in love with a man who can support me; not in luxury, for I have never been accustomed to that, but just comfortably; but in the event of misfortune or circumstances un- forseen, I should sacrifice everything for my family, yes, I would work day and night if necessary, for that would be my duty. Ever since I can remem- ber I have dreamed of the day when is, Wives of Lomorrow By FRANCES McDONALD Duty—What Is It? I should help establish a home, and perhaps some day I shall WAITING. Dear Miss McDonald: I was much interested in your comments upon “Duty” and hasten to accept the invi- tation to express my views. To me, “Duty” is self-respect. One’s sense of self-respect and one’s sense of duty are about the same. A mab who respects himself will support his fainfly decently, work for them, shelter them, protect them. The woman of self-respect will train her children, all for her husband and his home, and will conduct herself with dignity. The son or daughter who Knows the meaning of the term “self-respect,” | will assume whatever obligations nec- essity impeses, in order that the home may be decently maintained, that younger children may be oared for, and that the old or be helped in their hour of need. There is today too little sense. of duty. is an age lacking in self- respect. Young girls are loud, flippant and vulgar. Boys are dissipated, coars- ened and shiftless. Parents are weak and careless. The next generation will be almost totally devoid of a sense of duty or of self-respect just as they will be devoid of religious sense. It is a vulgar age. But in another 20 years we will see decency supreme. Then “duty” will go back in the dice tionary. At present the word is obso- lete. It WHEN WRINKLES COME. N this column yesterday I gave some ] suggestions for the proper use of tissue or massage creams, muscle olls and astringents in the _ battle against wrinkles, and outlined the treatment for the tiny lines that ap- pear at the corners of the eycs:. In many cases the earliest wrinkles to appear are lines leading from the nostrils to the rim of the upper lip. These should be massaged in the same way as the lines at the eyes. If the lines are not too deep or of too long standing court plaster can be used to excellent advantage. After a nour- ishing preparation has been applied, the skin should be stretched smooth between thumb and forefinger and a piece of court plaster moistened and held firmly to the skin where the line was until it adheres perfectly. The plaster should be allowed to remain on over night. If this method is tried, one must be persistent to get sure results. A good astringent should be used daily. BEAUTY AND YOU By VIOLA PARIS The horizontal lines in the forehead or the vertical lines between the brows can be treated as are the lines about the mouth, Wrinkles are caused by bination of a skin that Is flexibility and elasticity and muscles that are beginning to sag. It seenis that one of the first places the muscles begin to fail is directly in front of the ear. If lines have begun to appear here, @ rich cream or oll should be applied liberally at bedtime and left on till morning. A rather strong astrin- ing Should be used at least twice a ay. The treatment for a sagging chin and the lines caused by it should tn- clude regular daily exercises to give tone to the muscles, a food cream and massage and a tightening agent. Heade- turning and stretching exercises are the best. And watch your habits of expression. Avoid the “long face.” Cultivate the bright and cheerful habits of thought.

As a result of Stelle’s charge, Judge William N. Gemmill, of the Superior Court, appointed the Foreman ‘Trust & Savings Bank as receiver for the firm. Stelle asked the appointment in & petition charging Toombs with frauds, which he said resulted the exhaustion of the assets of firm. He declared he was that Toombs entered tnto a scheme ia March, 1927, to gain control of the International Life Insurance Co., and that, without knowledge of the board of directors of Toombs & Daly, he used his confection with the invest- ment firm to further his plans in the insurance company. In the manipulations necessary to his project, the petition states, Toombs issued checks against Toombs & Daly | for more than 82,000,000, and with the money purchased securities which the firm has never seen The check withdrawal, said so exhausted the Toombs & treasury that the firm can not meet its obligations.

Wednesday, August 15, 1928, GET IN LINE, DEMOCRATS! Democratic newspapers are very slow ip understauding the great change that has come over the Democratic in to tarilf of Times and party regard policy. ‘Two these newspapers, the New York World, are earnestly supporting Gov. Smith, York the New which are man- fully attacking the in blissful of and of Gov. Smith’s whole-hearted acceptance that Both of criticize Mr. for his protective principle, ignorance the Houston platform of platform. these journals Hoover the protective tariff views, on of similar statements Gov. Smith. Believers in policy of tariff protection to American industry and labor are not in- clined to “rub it in’’ when they see the Demo- cratic party swinging to the support of that policy, They rejoice that the Democratic party has seen the light, and they feel con- fidence in the future, relying upon Gov. Smith’s faithful observance platform pledges in case of his election. The absence of business uncertainty dur- ing this presidential campaign is undoubtedly due to the fact that the Democratie party has now abandoned fallacious tariff ideas and has declared in its platform as follows: The Democratic tariff legislation be based on the following policies: (a) The maintenance of legitimate business and a high standard of wages for American labor. (d) Actual difference between the cost of production at home and abroad, with adequate safeguard for the wage of the American laborer, must be the extreme Measure of every tariff rate. (e) Safeguarding the public ‘against monopoly created by special tariff favors. (f) Equitable distribution of the bene- fits and burdens of the tariff among all. eve by the of will Eliminating the clauses .criticizing the Re- publican party, this is the new Democratic tariff creed. Why do not Vemocratic news- papers accept this creed, and quit circulating ancient fallacies that the Democratic party has abandoned’? If the Democratic uews- papers in question. prefer a tariff polity that would open American markets to a flood of foreign cheap-labor goods, they have no place in the Democratic party, for that party now joins the Republican party in favor of the pro- tection of American industry and labor. Gov. Smith is injured when organs support- ing him denounce his tariff policy and the policy of his party. They are out of line with Democrats everywhere, and are misrepresent- ing Gov. Smith. The people have more confidence in the sta- bility of prosperity than ever before, knowing that whether Hoover or Smith is elected the protective tariff will be maintained. Upon this protection rests the welfare of both industry and labor. Gov. Smith will surely make this fact clear in his speech of acceptance. The Democratic planks above quoted are as or- thadox in their protective tariff doctrine as if they had. been written by William McKinley, Calvin Coolidge, or Herbert Hoover, Whether the free-trade doctrinaires like these planks or not, they can not change them, and if they are really anxious to elect Gov. Smith they will loyally support the new Democratic tariff creed, which is one of his elements of strength among business men, farmers and working- ' men. EMPLOYE STOCK SHARES. The wage earner today is more and more coming to be a participator in the earnings of industry at the coupon end. As matters are now trending it will be difficult to find any rigid application of the tenets of the old school socialists with respect to the capitalistic and the Wage-earning classes. In so far as the 1ovement toward acquisition of stock in con- ae by workers in them is noted in this 4 ‘ country, it does not disclose startling adjust- ments. So far, 389 confpanies are listed as having offered shares of stock for purchase by their men. There were but 60 such in 1915. * he significance of the movement to bring ari as { . the workers into the company, which goes back to 1893, when officers and employes of the or Illinois Central Railroad petitioned that tney -.- might have the privilege of purchasing securi- ties of, the road, is seen in the growth of the _ practice until it includes 1,000,000 participat- _ Ing employes holding $1,000,000,000 worth of a ‘ae as ied eh stock.

The ones who are most likely to cause unrest are the nonparticipators, Yet the growth of the practice will, in time, tend to reduce the number of the disturbers and to increase the number of reliable workers in particular employments. ‘The scattering of wage participation stock prevents using sucn stock as a bloc. The effect in creating a feel- ing of wage satisfaction, if not marked, has already sufficed to ward off strikes. The Pennsylvania Railroad, in recently creating an issue of stock for absorption by its employes, was influenced, as other concerns have becn, by a ‘desire to get new capital issues in safe hands. JAPAN AND CHINA. Japan is facing a serious dilemma in at- tempting to prevent the unification of China. Not only do the Japanese people wish to avoid war, being already borne down by taxation, but they are dependent to a great degree upon China for raw materials and as a market for Japanese goods. The great mass of the Japa- nese people feel this dependence upon China, and are striving to influence their government to avoid a policy that would ruin Japanese manufacturers, traders and exporters. The other horn of the dilemma is the power of the military class in Japan. It is headed by Premier Tanaka himself, a general and a lead- er of the militarists, This class is demanding vigorous action against China, even to the cx- tent of war, for the sake of safeguarding Jép- anese interests in Manchuria and Shantung. It was the military element that brought about About Peking (o The Chinese people and government! For this reason tue to Nanking, where it will be free from the dangers of for- eign aggression, such as surround Peking. The conflict between the military and cui%m- mercial elements of Japan has not reached an open stage where the outside world can esti- mate the probable outcome, but it may be as- wedge into Shantung. | sumed that the party advocating a pacific policy | toward Ghina has been cently by the disclosure of American and Brit- ish rapprochements with China. The statesmen of Japan ‘can not be indifferent when both American and British spokesmen declare that Manchuria belongs under the sovereignty of China and tbat this sovereign is well it powerfully aided re- how groups and another thing to united China sympathetically ported by the greatest powers. Perhaps the hope of Chinese quarrels is tue chief reliance of the Experience teaches that it is more difficult for a people to establish a permanent popular gov- £0 up Sup- Japanese military party. ernment than itis to beat off foreign oppressors | and win independence. The Chinese leaders at Nanking are now undertaking the most com- plex and delicate of al] tasks—the creation of a THE WASHINGTON POST: | society government of China, by and for the Chinese | people. Like the founders of the American Union, they must adapt their work to the tens, per and habits of the people. The coustitu- tions of popular governments will furnish mauy good ideas, but none of them is adaptable as a whole to the Chinese situation, Highly qualified Chinese are now studying the structures of many foreign governments tn the hope of gaining ideas that may be applied to China. The work of creating a government requires peace, first of all: and next to peace it requires cooperation and a spirit of accomnic- dation in the state builders. If the Chinese leaders who have accomplished the pacification of their country under the Nationalist move- ment can now demonstrate the constructive statesmanship of such men as James Madison and Alexander Hamilton they will deserve equal fame, and will be entitled to the ever- lasting gratitude of their countrymen. The somewhat menacing attitude of Japan warns the Chinese constitution makers to has- ten their labors, before the good work of the Nationalist armies is lost by dissensions at home and loss of confidence abroad. No more important duty has even been imposed upon men than that which rests upon the shoulders of the men who are trying to work out a gov- ernment suitable to one-fourth of the human’ race. THE ITALIAN-JUGOSLAV TREATY. By ratifying the treaty with Italy the Jugo- slay government disposes of at least one em- barrassment, and possibly clears the path for more effective dealing with the disaffection in Croatia. The Nettuno treaty liberalizes the rights of Italians along the eastern coast of the Adriatic, while making equivalent con- cessions to Jugoslavia. The Italian press is well pleased with the action of the Jugoslav Parliament in ratifying the treaty and now predicts an era of good feeling between the two nations. The stumbling block is the Croatian popu- lation of Jugoslavia, which happens to occupy the territory fronting Italy. The Croatian deputies absented themselves from Parliament when the time came to vote upon the treaty, while enormous crowds gathered at Zagreb and elsewhere demanding the independence of Croatia and breathing hatred of Italy. ‘The intensity of the public feeling is exhibited by the election of Stefan Raditch as leader of the Croatian movement, notwithstanding his recent death. Dr. Vladko Matchek was chosen as active proxy of the dead leader. Thus the Croatians, like the ancient Castilians, go forth to the struggle with a dead man riding at the head of the column, as:the dead Cid Campea- dor was strapped in his saddle at the battle of Valencia. ‘Matchek now becomes an jmportant figure, having behind him a following that can make or break the Serb-Croat-Slovene union. Some of the agrarian Serbs are more than disposed to deal generously with the Croats, but the prevailing Serbian party is stubbornly oppor- ing Croatian demands and ridiculing the threats of revolution. The ratification of the Italian treaty by this Serbian contingent in Parliament at this particular juncture is an extremely bold move, in view of the temper of the Croatians. _ CHEMISTRY IN PEACE AND WAR. Little value, interest or profit is to be found in picturing the chemist in the guise of a war monster. It is known, of course, that all the leading powers are perfecting their instru- ments for gas warfare, as they are other de- Yices of preparedness, Possibly the use of * | J . ies x8 J & Any ‘ j fs 4 wid pine 5% ett FL BY eg x oe “> . at ie c ‘gases will disclose horrors beyond anything that war has as yet inflicted. [It may he granted for the sake of argument, as Sir James CG. Irvine tells the American Chemistry Socisty, that “‘warships will be sunk, armies disbanded and fortresses demolished but the chemical factory will remain.” The important clause of this statement is the last. The dyestuff factories not only can be readily converted, as he says, Into chlorine gas factories, but the opposite is true, as well, In France the chlo- rine factories have been converted into dyestulf factories. The interest of the normal individual just now is in the wonders that chemistry is ef- fecting in the creation of new materials for clothing, new efficiencies in agriculture, de- velopment of conveniences and methods of travel and communication, new fields for ree- reation, and new appliances for the extraction of natural wealth from virgin countries. Mauy manufacturing, dietary and recreational fea- tures which are distinctive today are gifts of the laboratory, and the chemist who performs the miracles of service is no ogre. To create a morbid sentiment with regard to the work of the chemist is to pervert the facts. Even in respect to warfare, his ability to make more terrific agencies of death will do much for the prevention of war, The chemist, by making war more deadly, heips the world move for peace; and if wars should come, they will be shorter betause of chemical destruction, and therefore the total losses may be less than in the days when soldiers hacked one another with short swords. ST TTT BAD TIMES AHEAD. In an address before the American Chemical Institution, Dr. H KE. Barnard op- served that the great problem of the future will not be the source of food supply, but the question of standing room. rate does not begin to decline within the next 500 than a square yard of land per individual years or so, there will scarcely be Of course, as Dr. Barnard went on to point out, there {fs no telling just how the human organism may be altered under pressure of changed conditions.

American and British expeditions seeking the origins of mankind are agreed tbat the cradle of the race was probably in what is now eastern Africa. Evi- of artists, the Sahara desert and dences have been found the Aurignacian race, gifted hunters and whose re- mains in France and Spain were found in mountain caves. This discovery tends to con- firm the theory that when Europe was cover- ed habitable the Sahara thickly men capable of surviving merciless aggressions ice era. In Kenya colony, in East Africa, interesting discoveries have been made, pointing almost conclusively the presence of Aurignacian nan. He went into Europe following the sub- sidence of the last ice age, and survived when the Neanderthal man perished. The period of these African cave men was at least as remote as any of the remains thus far found in Asia. A point in favor of the theory that man origi- nated in Africa, instead of Asia, is that while Roy Chapman Andrews and others have not found human remains in the Gobi desert or elsewhere in Asia of an antiquity comparable with that of the Kenya remains, the African discoveries are a fact, while the Asiatic search is still unrewarded. Now that Dr. Andrews has found a monster in the Gobi desert whose head alone weighed 400 pounds when the beast was alive, it is half expected that human remains may be found also, of a ftinique size or shape, and perhaps older than anything yet found. But the age of such remains, anywhere found, is a doubt- ful question. The earth’s records are not all intact. Ice, heat, earthquake and flood. have changed mountains and seas, deserts and poles. All estimates of time, reduced to figures in years, are guesswork. ice but with region was pot only of most as an occupied all but of nature, by.-a race the such to PITTSBURGH FLOOD PREVENTION. Unquestionably the interest of the people of the United’ States in flood prevention in the Mississippi region has done much to direct at- tention to other communities subject to flood. Almost any city that is situated at the con- fluence of rivers may become a victim. So Pittsburgh is coming in for careful cunsidera- tion as a possible flood nexus. It is because Pittsburgh is a natura] flood center that geologists are studying the situ- ation there. They see that devastating floods occurred there before Rittsburgh existed.” ‘The vast wealth of Pittsburgh now makes the warning of the past a living question. What city lying heside a river is not poten- tially subject to floods of magnitude? Last year a study made by a Government specialist of flood conditions revealed that the site of Washington had seen a vistation of great Joads, . It lies in a potential flood area. It has ex- ‘perienced minor floods, as has Baltimore. Con- gress might well give attention to provisions against the colossal flood which, according tu this expert, will eventually come. -_ o> WEDNESDAY, If the population | ; more | of | :O |} rhe | convert | iorins | more’ | members | come i; were | and wh eS . - ne mee Pras, 3 i “ , * ye To hie oe ae Nett ype RE OR Ra ee, a . io feats cia hy oe pk a it oe ‘ AUGUST ee Ss anamet iNet Fin: 9 15, 1928: ' THE ORATOR WHO STRUCK THE PROPER POSE To AUGMENT HIS WroRDS THE OLD FASHIONED SPELLBINDERS oa J \ oat WAITING FOR fa) ree — } WE CANDIDATE WHO COULD REMEMBER EVERY BODY'S FIRST NAME THE APPLAUSE To DIE DOWN.

Wet and Dry Maneuvers, To the Editor of ‘The | Post—Sir: Lt | does not require reading Mr. meprers | acceptance speech between the lines to see that he has cunningly contrived tuo smoke Gov, Smiith out into the open on the dry question. Can the governor afford to dodge the issue? He must fish or cut balt. There is no half way allowed him by Mr. Hoover. Goy. Smith was nominated by the wets over the earnest protests of the Democratic drys, and Mr. Hoover has planned to make him accept the wet side of the issue. If he does that the Democratic drys will be up in arms against him. If he fails, or attempts to dodge, he will so anger the wets that Republican wets who have been leaning toward him will at once abandon him and return to their own party. It looks, also, as if Mr. Hoover has hoisted Raskob and Du Pont into the air. They have an- nounced they are for Smith because ae is wet. If, now, he replies to the chal- lenge of Mr, Hoover and declares for the ‘retention of the eighteenth amend- ment, which he will do to hold the South, Raskob and Du Pont have sold themselves for a mess of pottage and can not get the pottage. It is a good thing in politics to look before you leap. There was a “Stop, Look, Listen,” sign at the crossing, but those two dils- tinguished politicians failed to pay any heed to it. All good Republicans will gay, “Let them ‘stew in their own gravy.” DRY. Tammany History. : To the Editor of The Post—Sir: I clip the following from a speech by Senator Robinson, Democratic candi- date for Vice President: “When Jefferson Davis was impris- oned and threatened with humiliation and disgrace, it was a Tammany 6a- chem, Charles O’Conor, who boldly took charge of his defense, without fee, and directed it to a successful conclusion. — “The Democratic nominee in 1876, Samuel J. Tilden, was a member of the organization.

In fact it was his enmity to Tammany that put Mr. Tilden in the gubernatorial chair at Albany and almost in the presidential chair at Washington. Mr. O’Conor ably assisted Mr. Tilden in his great task of purifying his party in New York. As to the Jefferson Davis statement. Mr. O’Conor may have offered his serv- ices, but he certainly never “directed it (Davis’ defense) to a successful con- clusion,” because Mr. Davis was never tried. Mr. Davis was bailed out of jJall by a number of prominent citizens under the leadership of Horace Greeley, then editor of the leading Republican paper of the country, and there the whole matter died. The fight of Mr. Tilden against Tam- many I will never forget, for it was at that election that I cast my first vote, in the Ninth Assembly District of New York City. J. B. JAQUES. CHINA’S CAPITAL. The national] reconstruction commit- tee announces a project for converting Nanking into the capital of China at a cost of $50,000000, of which the provinces are expevied to find $35,000,- 000, says a dispatch to the London Times. An extensive scheme of new roads was annoutuced, but the cost was not stated. | In connection with the burial of Sun Yat-sen’s body in Nanking. it has been resolved to construct a new road right through the city .rcm Hsiakwan.

It exhorts women not to wear earrings which do “not necessarily .mprove a woman’s ap- pearance and are a costly habit.” BELIEVE IT OR NOT. Addressing the summer school of the British Social Hygiene Council at Cam- bridge, says the London Times, Prof. A. E. Heath, professor of philosophy at University College, Swansea, dealt with an electrical apparatus which had been used as an experim:znt to teach a boy to write. He once had a boy pupil, he said, who was particularly bright in conversation, but who was absolutely hopeless at school work. They found that the dif- ficulty simply was that he could not write. They found that he held his pen so tightly and pushed so hard that he was tired out almost at the end of a line. To cure that, the boy was given special lessons with an electrical device, -using a steel pen with connections, so that he got a shocs« yn the back of the neck every time he pressed too hard The professor described on the black- board the method adopted. The boy had to form letters between two lines on cardboard. The electrical connection was so constructed that when the steel) pen touched the line there was a buzz- ing sound, and when it went over too far, a bell rang. Thus the boy was able to develop muscular control and form the letters easily. In a statement after the-lecture, Prot. Heath said that the experiment took place at a Hampshire school. “It was tn the laboratory we fixed up the arp- paratus,” he said. “It appeared to us as a possible solution, and we had not heard of it being done before. As for its general use, I can not say whether it would answer, but in this particular case it was successful.

By means of a mercury vapor lamp. which has been installed in the min- eral gallery of the British Museum. members of the public, by pressing ag electric button, can flood a case cons taining fluorescent minerals with ine — visible ultra-violet light and see th@ remarkable phenomenon which result says the London Times. Most of these minerals are practically colorless, but as soon as they are ex- posed to ultra-violet ligiut they absorb this invisible light and emit, in their stead, visible rays of longer wave- length. Fluorspar, a brown mineral, changes color and becomes a bright violet. Colorless quinine shows up bright sky blue; zinc-silicate becomes green and, in some cases, yellow; zince- blende is changed tc a shining mass, old gold in color and in some cases, @ brilliant flery yellow, like a live coal. A pale green slab of willemite glows with remarkable. brilliance, the color being comparable with uranium green. Another specimen, with grains of pale- green willemite embedded in a cleavage mass of white calcite, is changed to dark flesh-red color, in which are spots of brilliant green, due to the willemite, The principle of the use of ultra- violet rays in the detecting of certain minerals is being explored by Dr. L. J. Spencer, keeper of minerals tn the museum. Dr. Spencer was of the opin- j lon that ultra-violet rays might prove of practical use in a variety of respecta in the detection af minerals. He thought that it might be used under- ground for the rapid detection of cer- tain ores. It could also be used to de- tect forged bank notes or stamps, as different qualities of paper glowed different colors when re gy in e to

Moncada’s trip to Washington, that ‘The United States is not going to select any candidate for President of Nicaragua, either Conservative or Liberal.” In the same statement, how- ever, Secretary Kellogg pointed out that “the United States can not recog- nize anybody who is not qualified under the Nicaraguan constitution to hold office,” and this view ts held as the official opinion of the United States Government. Gen, Chamorro, in the State Depart- ment’s opinion, is barred from being a candidate in the forthcoming election, owing to that provision of the Nica- raguan constitution which states that no person who occupied the presiden- tial office may be reelected to a suc- ceeding term.

CRIME Murderer of Miss Constance Taken to Death Scene; Is Arraigned and Indicted. SPEEDY TRIAL PLANNED Chicago, Aug. 14 #(A.P.).—David Shanks, illiterate negro bootblack, who, police said, confessed slaying Miss Jen- nie M. Constance, Peoria educator, to- day was arraigned, bound over to the grand jury and indicted within the space of a few hours. Prosecutors said every effort would be made to set an early date for his trial and that they would demand his electrocution. Shanks was arrested last night by Evanston police after they had traced a wrist watch which belonged to the victim. The bootblack readily con- fessed the slaying, police said. The prisoner was kept under heavy guard last night. Today, before a crowd of 300 persons, he calmly and dispas- sionately reenacted the killing at the scene. Just ten minutes later Shanks was arraigned and held to the grand jury without bond, charged with first degree murder. Although illiterate, the negro objected to the charge of murder. “It ought to be manslaughter, your honor, because she was not dead when I left her,”” he said. A short time later a true bill charg- ing Shanks with murder was reported voted by a grand jury In a hearing that required only 30 minutes. MOVEMENTS OF STEAMSHIPS 14.

When Williams disappeared, his mother publicly asked the people of Rocking- ham County to search for his body, saying she had dreamed her son died in @ pool of water.

10 Mos PRIGES DROP. IN AFTER MIDDAY RISE Only Few Shares Show Gains at Close in Active Day’s Trading. CALL FUNDS 614 PER CENT Special to The Washington Post. New York, Aug. 14.—Following a weak opening and a show of generally re- actionary trend, stocks rallied for a time today, after the call money rate had been reduced from the renewal rate of 712 to 6'% per cent, then gave way again under bear pressure, and the close found a large majority of them Well beiow yesterday’s final prices. Chrysler.and a few ‘other issues ex- erted a stubborn resistance to the selil- ing movements, touched new high- price levels and closed with substantial net advances. General Motors, Hud- £0n, United States Steel, Internationa! Combustion, American Can, Johns- Manville, Montgomery Ward, Wright. Radio, Southern Dairies, Warner Pic- ‘tures A, Sears-Roebuck, Electric Auto Lite and other issues were under pres- sure during most of the session, clos- ing with recessions extending to 5% net, the maximum loser being General Motors, with Montgomery Ward a close second, off 514 points net. Trading was active, the day’s turn- over totaling about 2,200,000 shares. Transactions in Chrysler amounted to 543,500 shares; General Motors, 274,- 900; Warner Pictures A, 113,600; United States Steel, 74,500; International Com- bustion. 71,800, and Electric Auto Lite, 50,000. Thus trading in these six stocks contained about half of the day's busi- ness.. Apert from Chrysler, some of the high spots on the upside included At- lantic Refining, which gained 5% points in a heavy turnover; Jewel Tea, 3%; Eureka Vacuum, 21,; Brockway Mo- tors, 144; Indian Refining, 1%: Briggs Manufacturing, 1; Eaton Axle, 1%; Byers, 134; Paramount, 2, and Pack- ard, 5. The persistent selling of General Motors was a disturbing influence througho: * the session. It caused gen- eral heaviness in the early trading and retarded the recovery of prices after midday wher. the rally came. Selling here -was partly counterbalanced by good buying in Chrysler, Packard and a few other issues, which prevented the market from going to pieces. Trading in General Motors and Chrysler tended further to confirm the popular theory in Wall street that important interests were selling the former and buying the latter. Brockway Motor Trucks soared to a new high record price, and accom- panying this rise were sharp advances in Eaton Axle, Motor Wheel, Electric Auto Lite and Packard Motor.

Raskob and| Pierre S. du Pont were selling General Motors stock and buying Chrysler was made this afternoon at Raskob’s office. “You can way authoritative’y,” a spokes- man for Raskob said, “that there is not a word of truth in it.” Predictions that activity would de- velop in railroad stocks because of the good crop news did not come true. In fact, with a few exceptions, the carrier stocks lost ground on the day. There was fairly good buying among the oils, under the leadership of Atlantic Refin- ing, and several of them were comfort-_ ably in the plus line at the close. Although the market responded tim- idly to the drop in call money rates, the easier tone nevertheless spread a more cheerful feeling through commis- sion houses. Earlier in the day the call of $10,000,000 in loans had revived talk of another rise in the rediscount rate. This scare has come w be expected on Tuesdays in recent weeks aithough bankers point to the impending Treas- ury, financing a a reason for not ex- pecting a higher rate. The improve- mént in the credit outlook checked sell- ing pressure for a time, but in the main speculators were inclined to ignore money conditions, and fluctuations in active leaders continued irregular. An increased supply of European bills in. the foreign exchange market was viewed in some quarters as foreshadow- ing the beginning of a gold import movement. Commercial bills were in the market, althcugh not in large blocks. Holland, which has been a stéady seller of grain bills for several weeks, had these documents in in- creased supply. There was the oegin- ning -of offerings of cotton sterling bills. which was partly effective in carrying the rate for sterling down tuo 4.85 9-32, a new low for the year, and a further decline of more than 1%, for the day. Dutch exchange moved up a little from the low level established late yes- terday, when guilde: cables were quoted at 40.08 against a parity of 40.20. French, Italian, Belgian, Swiss, Nor- ‘wegian and Danish rates went frac- tionally lower and pesetas yielded 2 points, Little change occurred in the far easterns, Japan holding at its low level of 45.06 for cables. South Ameri- cahs were unchanged. Canadian rose 3 points further to 100.06. ' CHICAGO GRAIN.
