POLICE SYSTEM HELD UNAVAILING IN CASES Bulk of Complaints Are Found to Be Unimportant by Expert Investigators. By WILLIAM ULLMAN. Observation to determine what tis wrong with Washington traffic indi- cates definitely that the onus for the chaotic and confusing situation pre- vailing here falls most heavily upon the arrogant private vehicle operator, the taxi driver, and the light com- mercial vehicle operator. There are others, of course, whose deviations from the path of reason and right are dangerous but, in the main, the three groups named include the most serious offenders. Contrasting strikingly with this fact are the revelations of an analysis of the arrest records in connection with enforcement of the traffic regulations showing that members of the three groups mentioned figure least in the police round-up of law violators, The most recent figures available—- those for July of the current year— markedly illustrate this point. During the month, usually the high mark of the year in respect to traffic arrests, 4,135 motorists: felt the clutch of the law Speeders Feel Little Law. Of outstanding significance in con- nection with these figures is the fact that approximately only one-fourth of these were made to pay the penalty for infractions of those regulations most peculiarly relating to safety. The speeder, the reckless weaver in traffic, the driver who ignores the boulevard stop sign regulation, the one who cuts the corner sharply and speedily, and the careless who violate the sanctity of the safety zone—these are the motorists whose sins against safety are most widely recognized as serious How did they fare among the traffic violators who paid the penalty for their malefactions? Of the 4,135 arrests, but 589 were on charges of speeding. Roughly, they constitute only 14 per cent of those haled before the bar of justice for en- dangering the safety of themselves and others. And the reckless? What was their fate with reference to police detection and arrest? According to the records, charges of reckless driving were placed against only 223. That fact suggests to many observers of the traffic situa- tion in the National Capital two ques- tions: What do the police regard as reck- lessness on the part of the motorist? Where Are the Police? Where are the police during the rush hours of traffic when the arrogant driver is at his tempestuous worst? Actual count at typical corners under average conditions would indicate be- CONTINUED ON PAGE 5, COLUMN 2 JURY AWARDS BRYANT $90,000 IN LOVE SUIT Holds Henry Westall, Club- man, Must Pay Following Alienation Charge. Asheville, S. C., Aug. 15. (A.P.).—Fifty thousand dollars was awarded G. Wal- lace Bryant by a Buncombe County jury today, just half the amount he had asked in his suit against Henry Westall, prominent Asheville clubman, for al- leged alienation of Mrs. Bryant’s af- fections. The jury gave Bryant $38,000 actual and $12,000 punitive damages. The verdict came after several days of sensational testimony, in which Bry- ant, who is a patient in a local sani- tarilum for the treatment of tubercu- losis, sought to show that his home was wrecked asa result of the alleged attentions paid Mrs. Bryant by Westall. Counsel for the defendant made a motion to have the verdict set aside on the ground that it was excessive. and Judge H. Hoyle Sink announced that he would set a time when argu- ment en that point would be heard. Marines Twice Victors In Nicaragua Skirmishes Puerto Cabezas, Ni~iragua, Aug. 15 (A.P.).—Marine forces in pursuit of the guerillas with whom they recently had a pitched combat, have been victorious in two new skirmishes. Four. bandits were killed, one wounded and five °-.p- tured while the Marines suffered no casualties. — Capt. Merritt A. Edson, of Vermont, led the Marine patrol which is now at Espanolita, on the Coco River. It was his command which clashed with the rebels on August 7, when one Marine was killed and three wounded. Ten insurgents were killed and three were | pounded im this encounter, 'Man Found Strangled In Arlington Cemetery Believed Paul Z. Randolph, Pennsylvania Veteran. Discovered in Ravine Under Tree Choked to Death With Necktie—Relatives Sought. In a little-frequented spot in an Arlington National Cemetery ravine the body of a man believed to be Paul Z. Randolph, 38-year-old war veteran, of Shamokin, Pa., was found yesterday, shortly after noon, by a negro work- man cutting grass in the vicinity. The man had been strangled to death with his black necktie, which was drawn tightly around his throat and knotted front and back. Beside the body, which was under a tree about 70 feet from McClellan driveway, lay a newspaper dated Mon- day, and in the man’s pockets were found parts of correspondence with the United States Veterans’ Bureau, most of which had been torn away, except parts bearing the name and _ “serial number of an adjusted compensation certificate. Immediately after the discovery, Lieut. Thomas A. Roberts, jr., officer of the day, and Maj. James H. Truitt, Army Medical Reserve Corps, of Glen- dale, Md., who is acting medical of- ficer at Fort Myer, were notified, and they viewed the body. They found the torn correspondence and also the name P. Z Randolph in the band of the straw hat that the man wore, and cor- responding initials or his belt buckle. Maj. Truitt said that the man had probably been dead 48 hours, or at least since Monday night. He said that there was no sign of any scuffling in the vicinity, nor any evidence of murder. The man died of strangulation, ap- parently self-inflicted, Maj. Truitt stated, and his neck was not broken. The body was prone upon its back. Maj. Truitt and Lieut. Roberts sub- mitted a report to Robert Dye, super- intendent of the cemetery, who imme- diately had the body removed to the funera] parlor of Norval K. Tabler, 928 M street northwest, where it is held pending orders from the Veterans’ Bu- reau., The body was fairly well dressed in a dark suit and apparently brand-new sult o. underwear, Maj. Truitt said, but not a cent of money nor an article of jewelry was found. Both Ma}. Truitt CONTINUED ON PAGE 3, COLUMN 1.

Thus it was that John Thomas Jett. 2. years old, ~~ fingered nervously a wedding ring, and Edith May Stone, 17, the would-be bride, were at police headquarters a little later consoling each other with the thought that. only two months more will bring Miss Stone’s\eighteenth birthday, when her father’s ohjections can be overruled. A Second Cousins. Jett and his inteniec bride left Fredericksburg shortly after noon and were brought to this city by a friend who had an automobile. Fearing inter- ference, they went immediately to the marriage license bureau, where Miss Stone is said to have given her age as 18 years.

Charges that inhuman and unjust treatment of women Government em- tem is taking an annila. health, and in some cases is responsible for the suicide of women unequal! to the strain of keeping their work abreast of others, were made at a meeting ot the League of the American Civil Serv- ice by Mrs, Margaret Hopkins Worrell, president of the organization, last night Gathered in the auditorium of the interior Department, members of the recently organized society heard Mrs. Worreil read a number of letters from women Federal workers telling of work- ing conditions, which were described by the writers as “unbearable.” In one letter the writer declared only her physical fear of pain kept her from self-destruction as a result of the treat- ment accorded her at her office. The “pool system” of letter writing, said to have prompted the suicide of Miss Dorothy Sherlock, 22 years old, who shot herself at her home, 1101 K street northwest, several days ago, was bitterly denounced as one of the most vicious results of the efficiency system as practiced in the Government serv- ice. The girl was employed in the In- come Tax division of the Bureau of Internal Revenue. The girl’s mother after Miss Sher- lock’s body was found declared her daughter had been crazed by the in- cessant pounding of typewriters. She said, too, that her daughter’s poor health had caused her to draw all sick leave allotted her, and that the girl had been threatened with dismissal if she was absent again. Miss Sherlock killed herself after being ill several days later. Col. Winfield Scott, Commissioner ot Patents, also scored the efficiency rat- ing system. He declared he once ex- perimented with a similar practice but rejected it as impractical.

C., Aug. 15 (A.P.).— Three alleged members of a poison plot which, the State charges, resulted in the death of one person and the illness of three others, were held for superior court trial without bond today after a preliminary hearing in city court. They are S. W. Daniels, a fortune teller, and Mr. and Mrs. E. F. Presslar, charged with first degree murder and conspiracy to murder in connection with the death last June of L. M. Lock- amy, Mrs. Pressler’s first husband. Three other alleged members of the plot charged with conspiracy to mur- der will be given hearings tomorrow They are Mrs. L. W. Pridgen, Mrs. Lilly Townley, and J. H. Moore, a negro preacher of Newton, N. C.

Wausau, Wis.. 15 (A.P.).—Em- phasizing America’s earnest determina- tion to promote international peace, President hailed today the pending covenant for the outlawry of war as the brightest hope for peace the world has ever seen. Addressing more than 15,000 persons at the convention of the Wisconsin American Legion, the Chief Executive described the Kellogg-Briand pact as an international agreement which would have prevented the catastrophe of the World War had it been In ex- istence in 1914 Interrupted frequently by applause as he stood bareheaded under a canopy facing the grand stand of Marathon Park, President Coolidge pointed to the antiwar treaty as witness that Amer- ica’s military establishment was not maintained for any aggressive purposes. Following his address, the President. Mrs. Coolidge and their son, John, were made life guests of the Talbot Mont- gomery Post, No. 10, and the auxillary of the American Legion.

Several huge bouquets of roses were presented Mrs Coolidge. She in turn presented the flowers to the disabled veterans of the State and announce- ment by Frank Schneller, retiring com- mander of the State Legion, of the act, brought prolonged cheering from the immense crowd packing the stand and filling the park beneath the towering pine trees. Airplanes circled over Coolidge’s train as it drew into the crowded city can- non boomed in salute and various drum corps beat a welcome. The President, from the rear platform, acknowledged the greeting by waving his hand and smiling. He was borne away quickly in an open car to the park in a pro- cession many blocks long. As the train drew out of Wausau the cannon again boomed in farewell. Special approbation from the crowd also was aroused by Coolidge’s refer- ences to “the wonderful spirit of loy- alty and devotion that was manifest in the heart of the whole Nation” dur- ing the war, irrespective of National origin. : Praises Veterans of War. Further applause drowned out Cool- idge’s words as he praised the part taken by the veterans in the war. “We have had a great deal of dis- cussion concerning the injustice of one CONTINUED ON PAGE 3, COLUMN 6. 13 VICTIMS OF BLAST REMOVED FROM MINE Bodies Recovered Account for All in Coalport Shaft at Time of Explosion. Coalport, Pa., Aug. 15 (A.P.).—Thir- tee: bodies were removed late tonight from the No. 3 mine of the Irvona Coal & Coke Co. in which a blast occurred this afternoon. One miner was brought out alive and rescue workers said all 11en were. now accounted for. There were 150 men in the mine at the time of tre blast. Officials of the company said that had the explosion occurred fifteen minutes later the mine would have been cleared of men. Most of the bodies brought out were mangled and virtually all were without clothing, denoting, rescue workers said, that the explosion was of terrific force. The explosion was confined to No. 3, south section, which is loca’ miles from the mouth of the mine. Girl, 3, Dragged Under Trolley, Is Only Bruised Three-year-old Louise Marion Red- mond, of 1226 Thirty-sixth street northwest, miraculously escaped death last night when she was hurled under a street car while chasing a ball across . the street in front of her home, and dragged about 15 feet. She is in Georgetown Hospital, suffering only from minor cuts and bruises on the head and body, police reported. According to police, the child was playing with other children on the sidewalk when th ball rolled onto the car tracks. Ignoring the approach of a street car driven by Motorman J dH.

In the senatorial race to fill the unex. pired term of the late Senator Frank B. Willis the league did not fare quite so well. Representative Thodore E.

Locher, who was appointed to the Senate by Gov. Donahey after the death of Willis, was indorsed by the dry league. A demand for an official count and probably an investigation of this vote appeared probable tonight when Sena- tor Locher’s headquarters here called attention to an alleged discrepancy of approximately 10,000 votes in the re- turns from Cuyahoga County (Cleve- land), Locher’s home territory.

Kellogg to Sign Today 3 Arbitration Treaties Secretary of State Kellogg will sign arbitration and conciliation treaties to- day with Austria, Czechoslovakia and Poland, it was announced by the State Department yesterday. The formalities are scheduled to take place this morn- ing at the department, when the three diplomatic envoys of the participating countries will affix their signatures. Secretary Kellogg will sign the pacts with Austria at 9:15 o’clock, with Czech- oslovakia at 10 o’clock and with Poland at 11:15 o’clock. The arbitration trea- ties are similar to the Bryan treaties and have been already concluded with France, Italy, Germany, Denmark and Finland. Negotiations for arbitration pacts are now in progress between the United States and 22 nations and con- cililation treaties with 15 nations. Kellogg Plans to Call — On Cosgrave in Ireland (Associated Press.) Secretary Kellogg virtually has de- cided to visit Ireland after signing the fifteen-power antiwar treaty in Paris, August 27, in order to return the call of President Cosgrave, of the executive council of the Irish Free State, made during his visit to this country. It is not unlikely that Kellogg also will visit London. Kellogg will have a little more than a week to spend in Europe before the salling of the steamship Leviathan on which he plans to return to the United States.

MIMIC AERIAL ATTACK “DESTROYS” LONDON 100 Bombing Planes Pene- trate Defenses and Wipe Out Capital. (Special Cable Dispatch.) London, Aug. 15.—If any of central London was not ruined in the past two days’ bombardment from the air, it d*finitely went, off the map tonight when mimic war between the East land and West land reached a climax in a terrific massed attack by 100 bombing planes. Penetrating the London de- fenses, the raiders again registered a direct hit on the air ministry, while other squadrons cruised over the Bank of England, St. Paul’s Cathedral and along the Strand to the West End and back again. They then started for the coast, leaving London wiped out. No official deductions from the op- erations have been given out, but the conseusus of expert unofficial observers here tonight was that each successive day’s exercises have served to stress the inadequacy of London's defense against attack from the alr. The single-seated fighter, it is pointed out, should out perform any bomber, but, as a matter of fact, one bombing squadron sighted by the defenders evaded them simply by flying away at full speed, which was 20 miles an hour faster than their pursuers. The Morn- ing Post correspondent also says that events during maneuvers arouses the gravest doubt of the wisdom of fitting the fighters with air-cooled motors, whereas the last Schneider trophy race demonstrated that for speed the water- cooled engine was supreme. (Copyright, 1928, New York Herald-Tribune.) MONTGOMERY TAXES INCREASED $200,000 Bills for $1,300,000 Levy to Be Mailed Through County This Week. Montgomery County taxpayers will be asked this week to pay approximately $200,009 more in real and persona! property and security taxes for 1928 than they have ever been required to pay before in any year, owing to the increase in property values brought about by the constant progress made in home and commercial construction and the enhancement in values caused by the highway and public school pro- gram that is being carried out by the board of county commissioners, it was learned yesterday. County Treasurer J. Forest Walker said that his office will place 18,000 tax bills calling for an aggregate amount of approximately $1,300,000 in the mail this week. These do not include tax bills on autos of an approximate value of $2,300,000 owned in Montgomery County, which will be mailed out in October, Walker said yesterday. The increase in taxes, unprecedented in the history of the county, is ac- counted for in the increase in the tax- able basis of the county recently ar- rived at by the board of assessors. The taxable basis was set at $73,531,770. More than 60 per cent of the increase will be borne by property owners in the Maryland metropolitan area em- bracing Bethesda, Chevy Chase, Silver Spring, Glen Echo, Cabin John Park and other communities adjacent to Washington, where a steady large in- as he tective who Hugh T.

Bishop James Cannon, jr., of Richmond, of the Meth- odist Episcopal Church South, in an address attacked the sincerity of Gov Smith tn his acceptance of the party's platform as adopted at. Houston.

Rosenberger, of Winchester, was ' named chairman for Frederick County, and O. G. Jackson, of Hot Springs, will lead the “anti-Smith Democrats” in Bath County. Replying to the oft-heard charge that he was dragging the church into poli- tics, Bishop Cannon said that, on the contrary, the object of himself and that of the Rev. Arthur J. Barton, of At- lanta, chairman of the temperance the Baptist Church, was to elevate the plane of politics. He added that when he donned the cloth of the ministry he did not surrender his inde- pendent right as a citizen. Bishop Can- inon vehemently denied the charge that the Protestant ministry was opposing Smith because he was a Catholic. he i\bishop charged, however, that Gov | Smith was ecclesiastically, officially and privately wet.

That’s one good reason why the country is swinging to Nash. The new Nash ‘‘400’’ is the car with the Twine Ignition, 12-spark-plug, high-compression motor. It gives you more power and more speed—far more than you will ever care to use. It gives you this speed and power with a smooth- ness and ease that other new cars without 7-beare ing crankshafts and hollowed crank pins cannot begin to equal. And it gives it to you—NOT with an increase in ‘gasoline, NOT with special, costly gasoline—but with LESS gasoline per mile and any kind of gasoline you choose to buy. This is possible because Nash, instead of merely increasing the size of the motor, has developed new principles of motor design, and offers a radically new type of motor.

SEYMOUR (Associated Press Staff Writer) EW YORK, Aug. 15 (A.P.).—The N New Yorker who, transplanted from rustic scenes, likes to ro- mance ebout the old swimming hole, ean find its counterpart within a few blocks of his office on these hot August days. If he yearns earnestly for a dip far from the formality of the hote] pools and @way from thickly populated beaches, he can follow a crosstown street to almost any pler around the edge of Manhattan Island. Along the docks and wharves groups of youths dive and swim and play water tag all day without attracting any more at- tention than if they were back of the willows in a country creek. Even the lack of a bathing sult is no deterrent at some sites around the island. Those who journey north across the Harlem River often see fgroups of lads diving hastily from rafts as trains: or street cars approach, to conceal themselves tn the water just as their brethren in smal] towns do when the afternoon passenger train comes whistling downgrade to the bridge. _—- FHREE PLATOONS OF TAILORS, Forty-seven tailors are kept busy fashioning the uniforms worn by cadets at the United States military academy, up the Hudson River at West Point.

And a good listener is never born, he is made. Now suppose this sort of thing hap- pens to the growing child. He comes home all excited, “Oh, mother! What do you think? Joe lost his puppy and we couldn't find him anywhere, and——"” At this point his mother cuts in with, “Why, son, you're a sight! How did you get your shoes so muddy? And your new stockings, too!” Gone is the joy of telling mother all about it. an his disappointment the child realizes that his mother hasn't been listening and that -:he isn’t inter- ested.

Sinus trouble is an infection, either acute or chronic, of certain cavities in the bones of the face. Most of these lie close to the nose and the infection starts as a common cold and spreads to one or more sinuses. The infection known as a common cold of the nose can drain easily, and the rule is that cure automatically takes place, and without great delay The in a sinus causes discharge which can not drain easily. There- fore, in many cases, cure is difficult. Most cases cure themselves spon- tancously Many need to be drained through a tube. The sinus is washed out after being drained. Heat and light treatment helps. Acetysalicylic acid relieves the pain. This answers all of FPF: E: D.’s and Mrs. E. &.’s questi-ns except one. Mrs. C. A.

He has lavished devotion and has assured her of his love and, when able to do so, hopes for the honor of marrying her, and yet has never kissed her. She has asked if he is a fool, or just a gentle- man. J wonder if Kay knows the real meaning of the word, “gentleman.” Surely she would not have used the word had she known. We all class our loved ones as gentlemen, and most every woman has been kissed by the man who loves her. 2 Kissing does not make @ man less a gentleman, if that is what she means.

Dear Miss McDonald: : Kay has spent four years on a Vic- torlan soul who has not yet bestowed upon her even one kiss! No wonder the girl writes to the newspapers! She ought to have sent his photograph. How on earth, Miss McDonald, can you calmly reply to so astounding a let- ter? Can you imagine yourself sitting probably three evenings a week for four years with a man who a heard of a kiss? The girl asks whether he gentleman—or a fool? I do not blame her for the second theory. 1 think he is a fool. And as a husband I think he will be’ a first-class flop. The man who can go with one girl for four years and never kiss her is simply in love with himself—and not with her .

They were unable to state positively, they said, because the body had been embalmed before the autopsy. City Detective F. M. Littlejohn, cred- ited with working up the case, was sub- jected to more than three hours of questioning. On cross-examination the defense attempted to block the intro- duction of the Daniels confession by charging it was obtained under duress and false promise, The court refused to allow the claim, however, after con- sultation with attorneys. The defense also attempted to block the introduction of several letters by alleging that they were fradulently ob- tained. Littlejohn testified that he, had taken them from the Presslar household without objection from Mr. and Mrs, Presslar. Letters Tell of Love. The letters were read in court over the objection of defense counsel. One from Presslar to Mrs. Lockamy expressed his love for her and one from her to Presslar expressed reciprocal feelings. Both were written before the death of Mrs. Lockamy’s husband. It was con- tended by the State that these letters established a motive. Mrs. Helen Pyrentgas, landlady of gether prior to Lockamy’s death, testi- fied that Presslar told her if he couldn't “get” Mrs. Lockamy he would “go crazy.” She said she heard Presslar offer Daniels $500 or a new automobile if he would “hurry up and complete that case.” The day after Lockamy’s death, Mrs. Prentgas testified, Presslar told her, “If he had lasted much longer I couldn't have held out. I went to bed hungry to pay Daniels for that job.” A few days ago before the arrest of the Presslars and Daniels, Mrs, Prentgas testified, she went with Detective Lit- tlejohn to the Presslar home. “I asked her how she administered the powders to Mr. Lockamy,” she said, “She wanted to know why-I asked that question and I told her I wanted to give my husband some. She then told me to give one at breakfast and an- other at dinner.” On -ross-examination the defense brought out that Littlejohn had sug- gested that line of approach for Mrs. Prentgas. The defense attempted to at- tack the credibility of the witness by bringing out the fact she was under suspended sentence for selling liquor. Secretary West Is Going To See Irrigation Work Roy O.

Another = _ startling deduced from the arrest relating to safety zone regulation violations. Of the 4,135 infrac- tion accounted for only result record is that arrests, this serious 12 Safety Regulations Ignored. Many commentators are convinced that that number can be noted during any 10 minutes of heavy traffic on any of the outlying boulevards, Connecticut or Wisconsin a It is a violation that is regarded by motorists and pedestrians alike as a flagrant display of ignorance or arro- gance, and that so small a number of the apparently guilty are arrested is a shock to those who desire to see con- ditdons here remedied. In the opinion of many students of traffic, it is significant that the bulk of traffic arrests comprises ofenses that are unimportant with regard to street safety and smoothness of traffic flow. Of the July arrests, they cite in sub- Stantiation of their point of view the fact that 1,443 were for overtime park- ing, more than 300 more than for all the really serious infractions combined. Further corroborative evidence they find in the fact that 195 were arrested for driving without permits, a serious charge, they grant, only in case the driver is not regularly licensed and not when he merely has left his permit at home. such as venues, Lights Causing Few Accidents. A question also is raised in connec- tion with the 428 arrests made for de- fective heedlights. In many quarters, nonlega] lights are regarded as a grave menace and in some cases they are. Yet, a recent survey of more than 25,- 000 traffic mishaps by one of the pro- gressive motor vehicle departments of the country revealed that faulty lights were accountable for less than 1 per cent—trivial in comparison with the 74.3 per cent traced to speeding and other forms of driving misconduct. That the July figures are by no means exceptional to the general average with respect to traffic arrests is regarded as Clearly evident in a comparison with the total number made last year. These figures reveal that of 38,370 police apprehensions of traffic viola- tors, the Police Department, itself, classified 29,619 as miscellaneous. There were, in that twelve months, 5,821 ar- rests for speeding, again, roughly, 14 per cent of the total. The proportion with regard to reckless driving, similar- ly, is indicated in the fact that 2,031 were taken on this charge. The whole situation with respect to traffic arrests, as measured by condl- tions on the streets of the National Capital, leads to one of two views on the part of most observers; either the police force is inadequate or inefficient, or both; or, that it 1s misdirected in its efforts to punish the minor law violator while the serious menace to safety roams rampant through the streets. Conditions, these students of traffic believe, will be remedied when the police force is enlarged or spurred to greater diligence with the effect that its arrest total shows the arrogant and reckless in the lead—the position now held by the overtime parker, who 1s a violator, of course, but the easiest type to apprehend. Auto Driver Fined $100, Given 135 Days in Jail Douglas Haley, Congress Heights, Md., was sentenced to rarve 135 days in jail and fined $100 when he was found guilty of three traffic charges in Police Court yesterday by Judge John P. McMahon. Haley was charged with being the operator of an automobile which collided with an auto driven by David Meredith, from which passengers were alighting on Benning road north- east, and to have failed to stop. Meredith } arsued Haley, he said, and the accused driver jumped from his car and ran, being captured by Meredith after a foot chas~. Haley was sentenced to serve 45 days in jail for leaving after colliding, 30 days for operating without a permit and 60 days and $100 fine for reckless driving. Haley pleaded guilty to all charges, An additional 25 days in jail was the alternative for fail- ure to pay the fine. Ralph Peck, driver of a truck which struck the parked car of Charles J.

The | premier said that owing to postpone- iment of the proposed union of Man- ichuria with Nanking, peace was in- |sured for the: time being in the north- 'ern dependencies. Therefore he con- sidered that the statement was unneces- sary at this time.

The original treaty provided that after its life of ten years it would have automatic revival for the same term unless formal! notice of ab- rogation was given by either party pre- vious to its revival date. That is what happened in 1916, and Japan claims that the treaty was automatically re- newed again in 1926.

Both President Coolidge and Mr. Hoove! foresee the danger of impairment of the na- tlonal defense as a consequence of Misapprehension of the scope and effect of the popular Kellogg treaty to renounce war. The fact that fifteen important nations are about to sign the & treaty is taken in too many quarters to mean that world peace is practically assured, aud upon that assumption well-meaning peace lfov- ers easily conclude that it is unnecessary to keep up the United States Navy. Mr. Hoover in his speech of acceptance laid emphasis upon the necessity of adequate nationa] defense, and President Coolidge gives a similar reminder in his address to the American Legion in Wie- consin. It is to be hoped that Gov, Smith in his Speech of acceptance will stress the necessity for maintenance of adequate national defense, while supporting practical efforts to accomplish of He Democratic platform in making such a declara- tion, the outlawry war and the limitation of armaments. will be in line with the but he can make the party's position much stronger by giving it his personal em- phasis. The platform favors the outlawry ot war, freedom from entangling political al- liances with foreign nations, protection of American lives and right@ and -limitation of armaments by international agreement; “and, in the meantime, the maintenance of an army and navy adequate for national] defense,” If the pegple can be assured that the next President, whatever the result of the November election, will steadfastly urge adequate pro- vision for the Nation’s defense, the dangerous tendency of pacifists and thoughtless citizens to bring about the enfeeblement of the Nation’s defensive preparations will not be effective ia Congress. Economy has no place in the calcu- lations and preparations of a nation that ta- tends to live and protect its citizens and their rights. The cost of timely means of defense is infinitely less than the losses causéd by unpreparedness when war comes.

The strength of the United States could not be brought to bear at any time, and that portion of it which aided in ending the war was not ready for action until more than a year after war was declared. American rookies were carried overseas in foreign ships, trained in foreign camps, and protected by foreign artil- Jjery.

After an active campaign that brought an unprecedented number of voters to the primary polls, Ohio Republicans register dry and Ohio Democrats register wet. The two leading Republican candidates fur governor were Myers Y. Cooper and Repre- sentative James T, Begg, both classed as dry. Cooper was indorsed by the Antisaloon League and Begg was denied such support, but Cooper seems to have won. The third Republican can- didate for governor, Attorney General Turner, attacked the dry organization and ran a poi third. . Representative Theodore E. Burton and Sen- ator Simeon Fess, both dry, won the Repub- lican nominations for United States senator, Kess being unopposed. Burton’s rival, a tib- eral on the liquor question, was easily beaten, On the Democratic side, with the excepticu of the governorship, wet nominations were the rule, including the nomination of Graham P. Huut, who will contest the late Senator ‘jllis’ seat with Theodore E. Burton. Hunt advocates the repeal of the Volstead act. Representative Martin L. Davey, supported by the Antisaloon League, easily won tle Democratic nomination for governor over a wet. But his associates on the Democratic ticket in November are all wets. The Ohio results, while broadly significant of the attitude of the two parties on the prohi bition question, tights in which the Antisaloon League was in- volved in both parties. Nevertheless, the couna- will accept the Ohio primary as an indica- tion that the Republican and Democratic parties will indulge in a Knockdown fight on the liquor question, with the Republicans phe- coming more pronounced every day on the dry side, and the Democrats going practically solid to the wet side in support of Gov.

TURKEY BRANDING. It appears strange to find the laws of the cattle range being revived in behalf of the turkey. Yet that is the situation in Idaho. Where formerly on the wide plains of the West cattle rustling was the bane of the cattle grow- er and the most stringent laws, often set as:de by the -short shrift of popular justice, were required to suppress the outlaws, now the tur- key thief has become a counterpart of the old-timed misbrander and rustler of cattle. With the growth of the industry in Idaho to proportions that match those it has assumed in Texas, wide complaint is heard of the men- ace to its profit which has arisen from ex- tensive thievery. The turkey is prone to wander, and at best is difficult to hold within bounds, but the vast acreage given to its culture by the grower provides ample room for its rovings. Yet this roving habit has made it easy for the robber, adept in turkey calling, to lure birds trom their owner’s preserves, The law provides a ten years’ penalty for turkey stealing, but convictions are few be- cause the evidence is not conclusive. One gold dollar is much like another, and one turkey resembles another. The last resource, and an effectual one, is that which was adopted upon the cattle ranges, the branding of the birds. The brands are a combination of letters tatooed under the left wing. In addition’ to branding, the laws require searching invest! gation of any person having for sale poultry not for immediate slaughter. The turkey is the nationa] bird at Thanks- giving and Christmas, and protection of the rights of the grower appears to the consumer almost a national duty. Idaho’s protective measures are to be applauded. THE LOWENSTEIN MYSTERY. The mystery of the Lowenstein case is in- tensified by the finding of toxic substances in the dead man’s stomach. The public curiosity is not satisfied by the meager report emanat- ing from Brussels in regard to this discovery. Whether or not the poisonous substance was sufficient to cause death or extreme pain is not disclosed. Assuming, however, that poicon was an element in the tragedy. the field of speculation regarding Loweustein’s spectacu- lar death is greatly broadened. Lowenstein was accompanied by a secre- tary, an amanuensis, and a valet when he left London early in July on his fatal flight. The pilot was busy at the controls, and the otner members of the party paid little attention to Lowenstein when he left his seat to enter the back section of the plane. After ten minutes had elapsed, however, the secretary went into that room and failed to find Lowenstein. The missing man’s collar and tie had been ripped off. He had forced open the door of the plane and leaped into space, falling 4,000 feet. On July 19 his body was found by a fishing smack, and identification was made by means of a tag or a wrist watch. The story of the passengers and pilot seemed to confirm the theory of suicide. Against this theory was cited the fact that the side door of cilities. de ele 5 Yoh ibe aghp ty A, + us eae 3 Ae ag fe i Uae a a eee except by exerting extraordinary pressure, on account of the contrary pressure of the 100- mile gale caused by, the propellers and the momentum of the plane. No suggestion that Lowenstein might have been murdered seems to have been seriously considered. Who knows how much money Lowenstein might have carried on that trip? conceivably, might have made it possible for some onedéo acquire an enormous fortune, He seems to have had heavy losses a short time before his death, but his remaining fortune, amounting to $40,000,000, and his buoyantly optimistic temperament and active brain might have made these losses seem trivial. In the midst of ambitious schemes, some of them coming to fruition, it does not seem reasonable to assume that he was suddenly seized by a suicidal frenzy, to the extent of ripping his collar off and leaping into the sea from an air- plane. Could he have been attacked by ex- cruciating pain, caused by poison, of such a maddening nature that he felt that he was suf- focating, and that he then rushed to the door. wrenched it open with maniacal strength, and jumped into space? If so, who administered the poison? No doubt Lowenstein’s family investigators at work on bis case. has skillful The mys- tery can hardly remain a mystery forever. It may be solved by revelations of a character as novel and spectacular as was his death. CHICAGO'S ROTTEN POLICE.

A letter written by Mr. Beveridge has re- cently been published. Iu this he states how he happened to devote himself to the Lincoln biography. “While I was at work upon the Marshall,” he writes, “this thought was cou- stantly in the back of my head: What mun conspicuously took up his work, adopted his philosophy, and carried both on to a practical conclusion? Obviously one man, only one— Abraham Lincoln.” The work which occupied Mr. Beveridge’s last years wil] undoubtedly be one of the great contributions to American scholarship. ‘The “Life of John Marshall” stands alone; it is not even approached by any other work on the life and times of the great Chief Justice. The Lincoln work, which Mr. Beveridge in the letter quoted above speaks of as a/“*cun- panion piece” to the earlier volumes, will dea] with Lincoln’s life from the point of view of the jurist and student of history. This is an aspect which has become curiously distorted. The charm, picturesque qualities and whimsical) remarks of Lincoln have become so deepiy impressed upon the public mind that the man’s grasp upon the meaning and future of America are all too readily overlooked. During the eventful years leading up to the Civil War and his own election to the Presidency, Mr. Lincoln stood almost alone in his comprehen- sion of the issues involved in the inevitable struggle and the plan upon which that struggle must be fought out. His was indeed a voice crying in the wilderness.

THE SWAN SONG. Does a swan really sing a beautiful song when it dies? The poets tell us so, but the statement has been con- tested by naturalists says the Rush- ville Republican. Have you ever heard a dying swan sing? The story of the “swan song” is one of the most beauti- ful that has come down to us through the ages. Its origin is difficult to trace, but there is no question as to its anti- . quity, for it appears literature of early date. Socrates, in the fifth century B. C., is credited with having referred to this legend of the swan, “which * * ®* all good men should imitate, who per- ceiving what gain there was in death, should die singing with joy.” Aristotle. who lived during the next century and was the greatest nuturalist of his time, accepted the swan song as fact, for he says: “Swans heve the power of song, especially when near the end of their lives, and some persons, sailing near the coast of Lybia. have met many of them in the sea, singing a mournful song, and have afterward seen them die.” Poets have been reluctant to aban- don so fine a theme. The works of Shakespeare contain several references to the swan song, notably in “Othello” and “The Merchant of Venice.” The late Prof. D. G. Elliot, one of America’s greatest and most respected scientists, relates that he and a friend were shooting in Currituck Sound North Carolina, when one of a passing flock of swans was hit. “On receiving his wound, the wings became fixed, and he commenced at once his song, which was continued until the water was reached, nearly halt a mile away. 1 am perfectly familiar with every note a swan is accustomed to utter, but never before or since have I heard any like those sung by this stricken bird. Most plaintive in character and musical in tone it sounded at times like the soft running of the notes of an octave And as the sound was borne to us, mel- lowed by the distance, we stood aston- frequently in ished and could only exclaim, have heard the song of the dying swan,” eaten or left alone to die. | “we )| LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. “The Robber Tariff.” fo the Editor of The Post—Sir: In discussing the attitude of the Demo-~ |cratic papers toward the Democratic | platform regarding the tariff you ask, | “Why do not Democratic newspapers | accept this creed and quit circulating ancient fallacies what the Democratic party has abandoned?” Just 100 years _ago John C.

Smith-Straton Controversy, To the Editor cf The Post—Sir: li looks as if Gov. Smith had found him- self in the place of the man who wished he hadn’t. He challenges a preacher to a verbal duel. Under all the rules of the code duello the chal- lenged has the right name place, time and weapons. The preacher accepts and names the place. The governor insists that another place be named. Back comes the preach’* and announces that if the governor is not | satisfied with the place selected he will | hire a hal' and not only repeat t charges, but will add to them. and of- fer record proof to substantiate them. The governor’s first mistake was 1n issuing the challen~>. A candidate for the Presidency is never wise if he un- dertakes to reply to all the charges which may be made against him by his political foes. Certain’, he is unwise if he openly offers to debate the qucs- tion. Out of such a debate he is sure to come a loser in the end. The as- sailant has nothing to lose, and in this instance he stood to gain a lot of the notoriety that his kind feed upon. A DEMOCRAT. parcy to hie Kelly Miller’s Vague Advice. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: ! wish to offer a brief comment on an article in your columns of Tuesday over the signature of Prof. Kelly Miller, of Howard University, relative to the “attitude of the.colored voter.” The writer enjoins the colored voter that he must not be actuated in cast- ing his ballot by a vindictive motive. He leads us through a maze of Kantian rhetoric in an analysis of the elements which constitutes the basis for a vin- dictive choice, and points out the diffi- culties that confront the colored voter in any attempt to weigh the advan- tages and disadvantages attendant upon a choice “impelled by fear and revenge,” and, finally he concludes: “By lining up on the side of law and order, of temperance and right- eousness, the negro frees himself from the motive of vindictive politics and takes on the stimulating advantage of the moral aggressive.” ‘The professor did not feel it incum- bent upon him to designate the party which represents the “side” he refers to, whether Hoover’s side or Smith’s side. He probably deemed it a matter too obvious to mention and probably it is a reflection upon my intelligence that I should be unable .to divine the side on which he thinks the colored voter should align himself. But the choice should be based upon policies and measures and not upon mere slo- gans or vague generalities. The col- ored voter, as any other voter, should cast his ballot for the party which espouses policies and measures which he believes are calculated to bring about more effegtually the results idealized by Prof. Miller. If the pro- fessor recommends Smith for Presiden‘, the colored voter would no doubt be glad to have him say so. WADE ‘H.

BANKERS ARE TOLD UREDIT 19 EXPANDED Gov. Seay Warns of Penalties, in Letter He Sends to Reserve Members. CITY’S MARKET IS ACTIVE: By ROBERT C,. ALBRIGHT. Warning that any further weakening of tinued expanson of credit will lead to the Nation’s credit structure by con- | weakened by further expansion of credit without penalty. One of the penalties of an expanded condition of credit is a rise in interest and discount rates, and the cause for the rise up to this point is made sufficiently clear, I believe, in the foregoing. Not an Artificial Situation. “It is not an artificial situation by any means, as some are saying; it Is the natural result of acts which have preceded it and led up to it.” The governor explains that the price of credit, like the price of most things, is governed by the supply, and the | supply is governed by the ability to ob- | tain excess reserve. He declares it is not a legitimate source of supply to obtain excess reserve by borrowing for continuous use, Discussing the effect of the diminish- ed gold supply on the credit situation, Mr, Seay tates that on June 30, 1927, the ratio of gold stock in the country to the individual deposits of all banks and the stock of currency was 7.5 per , cent. penalties, Gov. George J. Seay of the! Fifth Federal Reserve district, in a/ letter mailed to local bankers yester- day, reviewed conditions which have brought about prevailing high interest rates, and cautioned against excessive borrowing on reserves in this district. His statement disclosed, that on July Washington banks had borrowed | from the Richmond institution funds nearly eight times in excess of the ageregate for the same day last year. Loans to local banks on July 31, 1927, were $485,000, contrasting with $3,770,- 000 two weeks ago. Against this amount | Washington banks have $9,174,267.76 | in reserve deposits, he said. Gov. Seay points out in his state- ment that the reserve ratio of the Richmond Federal Reserve Bank is the | lowest in the system. On July 31 it averaged 51.1, as compared with 69.9 for the system as a whole, which in itself registered a drop from 79.7 re- corded July 27 last year. “On the same date (July 31),” his letter reads, “there were 94 member| banks borrowing from us more than} their basic line, of which S89 were} ‘country banks.” The amount borrowed | by ‘city banks’ in excess of their basic | line was only $1,800 000.” | There were 287 borrowing banks inj} this district out of a total membership of 561, his statement ghows. Of these, | some have borrowed nearly the full) amount of all reserve deposits, while 48 per cent have borrowe” nothing. 31 New ork Figures Exceeded. “The impression seems to exist with | those banks that have written to us that the increase in the aggregate of | bank loans on securities was almost! entirely in the banks of New York City,” the governor. said in his letter. | “To the contrary, the Federal Re-| gerve Bulletin of July shows that the increase security loans of the re-| porting member banks above referred | to outside of New York “ity was not! far from twice the amount of such loans in New York City banks.” It was declared in the statement that its purpose was “to show that a very! marked degree of credit expansion ex- ists, and that it is still going on con- currently with a decrease in the gold base, upon which bank credit is built) up.” | “The credit structure, therefore,” the | Jetter continues, “is not as strong as it} Was, and it can not continue to be | — in | formidable,”’ | hands. 'mac R. R. 5s held at 9814. On June 30, 1928, estimating the in- crease in bank deposits at $2,000,000,- 000, the ratio of the gold stock to the total bank deposits and currency was 6.57 per cent, or nearly 1 per cent less. “One per cent does not sound very he comments, “but the difference between 714 per cent and 6% per cent expressed in percentage of | decrease is between 13 and 14 per cenit, Measuring it in another way, the dif- ference expressed by the amount of the decrease in the gold supply above men- | tioned was $456,000,000, at the same time making mental allowance for the | increase in credit. “The ratio has never been at such a low point except in the latter part of it was 6.3 per cent. On 1918, when expansion or in- flation was getting under full headway. the ratio was 8.9 per cent. “This comparison is significant.

Another reduction in electric light rates, effective January 1, was predict- ed at the offices of the Public Utille ties Commission yesterday. . The free ductions have become annual affairs under the consent decree whereby the Potomac Electric Power Co. devotes half of its profits over 714 per cent on valuation to rate reduction. Tabulation for six months showed that up to July 1 the company earned $351,747 more than it did in the cor- responding half of last year. Last year the company earned more than 714 per cent und rates were reduced, the ini- tial rate for residential lighting being lowered to 5.9 cents per kilowatt hour. Accountants of the commission reck- cned from the first half year’s profits that the figures for the entire year might show an excess of $750,000 over 7% per cent This might bring the rate down to 5.2 cents.

Such ishes never come true. mice can never repair the orief and suffering caused. They are merely vain regrets--- damage wrought nor alleviate caution and observe the common-sense rules of safety than to wish a thousand times over that you had done so---when it 1s too late. Heedless and preoccupied pedes- trians, who continually and unnecessarily court injury and death at busy street intersections and all points in between, are fully as liable in case of accident as the wreckless or selfish motorist.
