J., September 4, 1894, and went into mourning, for in those days, when Maj. James E. Bell was inspector general of rifle practice, marksman- ship was taken seriously; but we re- gained it at Seagirt, September 5, 1895. If the Interstate trophy is the same as the Hilton trophy, our bull’s-eye artists captured it again in 1899, which makes it a little tess than 30 years.

MANY CURIOUS LAWS AP® STILL IN FORCE Card Players Who “Welsh” on Losses Face Penalty; Shoot- ing Deer in City Banned. ee a — In an office piled high with ancient law books, two local attorneys are working overtime these days, formulat- ing what will be a framework for the first real] code of laws the District of Columbia has ever had. Truly, it will ibe a code evolved from chaos. | The attorneys—Edwin A. Mooers and yesterday | Boyd—announced that their great task would be com- pleted by January 1. The next a movement already insure action by short session. Congress will be asked to approve the codification of the laws worked out by Mooers and Boyd, and then to authorize the printing of the new code for the District. However, this will not end the task. The suggestion of lead- ing lawyers here is that this code be permitted to stand for a reasonable period—two years, say~and then to fashion from it a definite and perma- nent code for the city, using a legis- lative scalpel to cut away all the _in- consistencies and incongruities exist- ing among the laws in force here is under way to that body at Love of Law Required. The task of Messrs. Mooers and Boyd has been to hunt for lost and forgot- ten laws, some of them dating back into the haze of English history. They have had to wade through books hun- dreds of years old, and to pore over pages covered, in many instances, with faded+ French and Latin. Frequently, the hunt has taken them to Annapolls, the birthplace of many a law now in force here. It is a task requiring infinite pa- tience and a love for the profession of law. However, it is not entirely devoid of romance. Often the two attorneys run across laws that cause a chuckle or send their thoughts back the brave days of old. Here, for example, are a few of the hundréds of old laws which Mooers and Boyd contend are still in force here. A law requiring a “welsher” in a card game (that is, a loser who refuses to meet his losses), to pay to the victori- ous player three times the amount he has lost. No doubt, there are many who would like to see this law enforced today. A law prohibiting hogs from ning at large” in the city. All Sports Are Banned. A law declaring that “persons work- ing On Sundays or commanding or suffering their children or slaves to work or profane the Lord’s day by gam- ing. fishing, fowling, hunting: or other unlawful pastimes, shall on convic- tion before a single magistrate forfeit 200 pounds of tobacco to the county.” A law prohibiting the killing of wild deer in the city between the first day of January and the last day of July. to “Tun- Friendly Indians, however, are not af- fected by the law. Some of the laws dug up by Mooers and Boyd cause a shudder when read, and it is comforting to be told that they are now obsolete. For example, there is one which provides the death penalty for a third offense of blas- pheming or cursing God. Fostered by Fitzgerald. Representative Roy G. Fitzgerald (Republican), of Ohio, chairman of the House committee on the revision of laws, probably will be known as the father of the proposed new code of law for the District, It was he who sponsored the act of May 13, 1926, authorizing an expendi- ture of $25,000 “for the employment of competent persons to assist in compil- ing and codifying the laws relating to the District of Columbia.” On February 26, 1927, Mr. Mooers and Harry A. Hegarty were employed to do the job. In the midst of the work Hegarty died and Mr. Boyd was employed to carry on in his place. Perhaps in no jurisdiction are the laws in such a chaotic state as ‘they are here. In view of the fact that CONTINUED ON PAGE 10, COLUMN 2.

Doubt Thrown by Police On Murder Farm Story Three of 4 Supposedly Slain Lads Now Believed Alive, Despite Youth’s Story of Ranch Killing—Bones Dug Up May Be Those of Animals. Los Angeles, Sept. 15 (A.P.).—Of- ficials tonight began to express doubt as to the veracity of the story of the Northcott murder ranch crimes, as told to them by 15-year-old Sanford Clark. The boy, who was brought to Juvenile Court from the Pomona chicken ranch of George Cyrus Northcott, accused Mrs. Northcott and her 21-year-old son, Stuart, of kidnaping, torturing and killing with an axe four boys.’ Young Clark declared the murcered boys were Louis and Nelson Winslow, who disappeared from their Pomona homes; Walter Collins, who disappeared from Glendale last spring, and an un- identified Mexican youth. Clark said he was forced to help kill one of the Winslow boys, and also to aid in bury- ing the bodies in shallow graves filled with ‘lime to dispose of ‘them. Tonight N. H. Winslow, of Pomona, father of two of the alleged victims of young Northcott, stated to investiga- tors he believed positively that re- ports made to him of his two sons red been apprehended in Texas were nie autores other doubt on Mies rae yea ep ata eke _ the police, who asserted their belief that Walter Collins, whom Clark said was also a victim of Northcott, was the boy who now is at his mother’s home in Glendale. Young Collins was located in the midwest several weeks ago and returned to his mother, who declared: “that is not my son.” The mother, Mrs. Christine Collins, who yesterday was missing from her home, tonight was located in the psychopathic ward of the county hos- pital where she is under observation for mental troubles. Bones which investigators today dug up on the Northcott ranch, and many of which had been burned, were de- clared by Sheriff’s Chief Deputy Ben De Crevecoeur and other officials as likely to be bones of chickens and other butchered animals as of humans. One bone, they said, might have been part of a human skull, but they were not positive. Meanwhile Northcott and: his moth- er, Mrs. Louisa Northcott, were being sought along the Pacific Coast and in Canada.

For many of them, it will be their first work since April 1. Announcement of the result of the vote, taken throughout the mining dis- tricts WetMesday, was made late this afternoon at mine headquarters here. Immediately after announcing the vote, and issuing a short statement, officials of the union retired to executive ses- sion, The vote of 26,838 for ratification and 25,497 against represented the suc- cessful culmination of wage scale ne- gotiations. Effective Monday, the new wage scale is in_ force for four years. It represents a decrease in salary of from 16 to 19 per cent. The new wage scale is in force for $0.91 for tonnage and $6.10 for day workers, compared to the old pact of $1.08 for ‘tonnage workers and $7.50 for day men.

Club, Newton, (A.P.).—The exceedingly business-like Brae Burn Country Sept. 15 but young man who dominates rather stoutish American links strode up and down the hills of Brae Burn today, niblick that dealt death and destruction to the hopes of British golf in general and the ambitions of wielding a Thomas Phillip Perkins |in particular. While a pop-eyed gallery of some 6,000 spectators scrambled to watch him Bobby Jones crushed the champion of Great Britain, 10 up and 9 to play, in the most one-sided match for the amateur championship of the United States in 33 years. The Great Georgian, reaching a higher pinnacle of achievement than ever before in his amazing career, thus completed his ruthless march to a fourth national amateur title in five years and his eighth triumph in six years in éither an American or British national tournament. Perkins won only two holes, the first and seventeenth. His approximate medal score, at best, was 17 strokes over par for the 27 holes, while Jones was exactly even with standard figures. With this eloquent difference in their stroking ability, it seemed almost ridiculously easy for the American to gain a lead of six up at the end of the first eighteen holes, where he had one streak of win- ning eight out of ten straight holes, and settle the match at the twenty- seventh green. There, with his ball some 7 feet from the cup and Bobby's inches away for fours, Perkins walked over to congratulate his conqueror.

But although the crowd was a delight to the gatekeeper and managers of the fair little comfort did it give the vendors and barkers who plied their trade. The “flying jenny” and Ferris wheel and games of chance just could not compete with him. There was nothing new to what the senator said. He told of “the Catholic- controlled press” and how "the Cath- Olics have threatened his life, mainly because he wouldn’t let them get this country into war with Mexicco.” But it was the first time he has been heard in these parts since Congress adjourned and quite a few of his Washington public went down to see him. He told about a time when the “Catholics came to see him and dared him to debate with one of them and he agred so quickly that they were taken completely off their feet. The crowd screeched with delight as he related how first one man they selected got cold feet, then another and a third—oh, how he wanted to get to them. And a woman was overheard shaking her head fervently, “I'll bet he cid, too.” The press is still the senator’s worst grievance. He has warned tiose “squirrel heads” in the press gallery of the Senate that they had better tell the truth about him. Why, there was a woman anti-Catholic lecturer who came here a few months ago and she wanted to place this advertisement in a newspaper: “I will speak at such and such a place tonight. Senator Heflin will be there. Will you?” But the editor told her that the Catholics would boycott the newspaper so they wouldn't take the ad, not even after she had offered $47 for it, Just that small ad.

The message said: “Terrific hurricane Virgin Isl- lands. No communication with St. Thomas. Hundreds homeless.

A northeast gale was blowing at San Salvador while a 60-mile wind from the North was reported at Long Island with the barometer at 29.50. At Nassau, shipping was ordered to hurricane anchorages, while on New Providence Island houses were being secured. The Local Red Cross has opened six relief stations in San Juan and vicinity for the relief of the homeless and the distribution of necessities. Messages from nearer towns are be- ginning to arrive, bringing added tales of great property tamale and crop losses. It appears that the loss of life has been almost miraculously small, although communication ts still lacking with most of the island area. Third of City Homeless. Havana, Sept. 15 (A.P.).—Dispatches | reaching Havana from the stricken zone of Porto Rico indicate one of the great- est disasters in the history of Carib- (bean hurricanes, It is estimated that 70 per cent of ithe homes in San Juan and 30 per icent of the business bulldings were ‘destroyed. The homes of thousands of 'working people along the waterfront were completely wiped out and approxi- mately one-third of the city's total population are believed to be without shelter, The main offices of all cable lines in Porto Rico were hastily closed and transmission huts were erected along the beach at points where landings had been shifted by force of the wind The residential district of San Juan, where hundreds of Americans reside, was in the path of the storm and suf- fered severe damage The southern of the city is considerably the northern por- tion, owing to the protection afforded on the north by the fortification of El Torro and San Cristobai. The municipal area along the water front received the brunt of the winds which reached a velocity of 132 miles an hour. La Princesa, the southern sec- tion of San Juan, was leveled to the ground and more than 2,000 persons made homeless. Little accurate information has reached Havana concerning damage to Rican sugar crop. It is the South Porto Rican Sugar Co. caped with slight damage. Denth List 10. New York, Sept. 15 (A.2.).—Ten per- sons are dead in Ponce, Porto Rico, and 700 homeless, many of them in hospitals injured, as a result of the hurricane ‘vhich swept that island Thursday and Friday. The All-Amer- ica Cable Co. learned trom its man- ager there today. The message from Ponce Is the first detailed descriptive matter of the re- sults of the hurricane on the south coast of Parto Rico that has reached New York. While it did not indicate as extensive damage as San Juan, on the north coast, suffered, the hurri- cane caused a heavy loss of life and property on the south coast also. Low-lying parts of Ponce have been inundated, the message said. Large numbers of frame houses were de- molished in the gale. Electric light, telecraph and telephone systems were completely disorganized. As far as could be ascertained with the meager land line communications available the coffee crop, said to be the best in ten years and which had al- ready been sold in European markets, was completely ruined. Growing cane was flattened, but it is believed may recover. es- Ponce Due in Florida Today, (Associated Press.) The tropical hurricane that has spread desolation across Porto Rico, the eastern shore of Santo Domingo and the Virgin Islands, leaving the threat of famine and disease in its wake, was raking the Bahamas yester- day and was due, unless it should change its course or blow itself out, to strike the Florida Coast today. | The Weather Bureau expected that such a change of course, in either di- rection, might occur when the storm was due to reach Nassau. A swing to the west would send the hurricane hurtling between Cuba and the south- ern tip of Florida with possible damage to the Gulf States, and a curve east- ward would point it upward toward the Virginia Capes or completely out Into the Atlantic where it would menace the crowded maritime traffic to the Panama Canal. This was the fourth day of the hur- ricane and it was proceeding with un- diminished fury along its northwest- ward trail of doom. Friday night it passed over Turks Island in the British West Indies, destroying shipping and causing wholesale damage ashore, and yesterday it was raising havoc through- out the southern fringe of the Ba- hamas. Great Number; Suffer, Tens of thousands of inhabitants of the stricken islands were homeless. Countless houses and business build- ings, hospitals and mission schools and camps, were laid waste before the on- Slaught of the storm, described in dispatches fror: the zone of disaster as one of the most ferocious and the Caribbean, Appeals for assistance from the islands said that relief must be sent be averted.

TWO TEACHERS HEROINES (Associated Press.) The death list in the tornado-torn sections of Illinois, South Dakota, Nebraska and Wisconsin rose to nine- teen last night as indefatigable work- ers reduced the number of missing to six at Rockford, hardest hit of the cities. In the other three States, crops suf- fered from wind and water; the dam- age was approximated at several millions. The heroism of two teachers was related in stories from Nebraska which told of the destruction of three schools. Miss Helen Rooney was killed near Homer after she had herded her pupils in safety to the basement, while at Althill Miss Phyllis Stewart, the chil- dren huddled in one corner of the room, played the piano to calm them as the tornado approached. Two of the pupils lost their lives. Dozens of houses and barns in the four States were destroyed, half the village of Davis, S. Dak., being razed. Tragedy at Rockford. Rockford, Sept. 15 (A.P.).—The death list of Rockford’s tornado tragedy stood tonight at eight. Hospitals with more than a score seriously injured, may make the fatal reckoning higher. Six others are missing. They may be buried beneath the brick, timber and machinery of the storm-wrecked chair factory “B.” The more hopeful theory of relief workers is the missing may have escaped, as did 50 others when the twister darted down out of the black Friday afternoon sky, doing dam- age that has been estimated close to $5,000,000. Gov. Small at Springfield ordered Company K of the 129th In- fantry, Illinois National Guard, to re- port here for tornado guard duty. A detail of 50 highway police also was assigned. A larger part of their task will be to keep crowds of curious from the ruins of the chair factory, in which three of the eight fatalities occured. The three floors of the long building crumpled before the wind, dumping tons of machinery and lumber into a tumbled pile. Firemen and volunteers worked all day, yet at nightfall were only a little nearer knowing what secret of death the ruins held. Destruction In Swaths. A hundred yards from the chair factory stood a giant pile of fine sand with not even a furrow in its Nght golden sides to show there had been any wind at all. That was the way the tornado bounced—destroying a factory, a home here then skipping many others. The two sections of the city that suffered most were approximately three miles apart, with blocks in between that es- caped the storm. Both hard hit sections were devoted mostly to industries—the “B” factory | of the Rockford Chair & Furniture | Co., on the one hand, the Elco Book Co., on the other. Destruction was | wrought to six other industries in les- ser degree, particularly to the Union Furniture Co. and the Mechanics’ Ma- chinery Co. Relief was quick in organization. | Subscriptions came in quickly to meet | emergency needs of hundreds made homeless and jobless. Plans also were formulated to rebulld at once some of the factories destroyed. Names of the Dead. Many of those thrown out of em- ployment by destruction of factories were to be given work in reconstruc- tion. / The death list, as it stood tonight, was: Everitt Cornmusser, 16; Virgil Cornmusser, 17; Bernard Cornmusser, 14; George Fagerberger, 51; Tony Mar- tinkas, 50; John Drunsk!, 44; Swan Swenson, 40 and Axel Ahilgren, 30. Swenson and Ahlgren died today in hospitals. They were furniture fac- tory workers caught beneath falling walls. Anti-Catholic Book Linked to G. O. P. Democrat Charges Investi- gator Got Copies at Office of Col. Mann. Little Rock, Ark., Sept. 15 (A.P.).— A direct charge that anti-Catholic propaganda against Gov. Alfred E. Smith is being distributed in the South with the sanction of an accredited rep- resentative of the Republican national committee was made by Vincent M. Miles, Democratic national committee- man for Arkansas, in a speech at a picnic at Natural Dam Park today. Miles charges that a woman inves- tigator for the Democratic National committee on last. Tuesday entered the offices of Col. H. A. Mann, South- ern representative of the Republican committee in Washington, and asked for literature for distribution among Southern women. The _ investigator was sent to an office nearby, he said, where she was given a considerable number of pamphlets bearing the headline “A Vote for Smith Is a Vote for the Pope” and containing material attacking Smith because of his religion. Miles quoted Senator T. H. Caraway, of Arkansas, as threatening a senatorial investigation and saying, “Dr. Work’s disclaimer on Sunday fails to be con- vincing in iew of what Col. Mann's office is doing subsequently.” Lammot du Pont Heiress And West Pointer Wed Wilmington, Del., Sept. 15 (A.P.).— Fulfilling a family tradition that none of the Du Pont daughters shall marry great wealth, Miss Esther D. du Pont today became the bride of Campbell Weir, West Point graduate and a for- mer employe of the Du Pont offices, The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Lammot du Pont, the former be- ing president of the E. I. du Pont de Nemours Co. The bridegroom is the son of Mrs. Henderson Weir. The cou- ple will spend their honeymoon abroad, and later Mr. Weir will be associated with the Bellanca Airplane Co. to shipping will aggregate many mil- lions of dollars. With their rich harvests of coffee and tobacco largely ruined, their ba- nana and citrus plantations leveled, their homes and hospitals shattered, the islands were further afflicted by complete disruption of light and power and a cessation of their water sup- plies. One effect of the power failure was that newspapers could not be pub- lished, and without this source of au- thentic news terrify rumors ran un- — among the frightened popu- ce, .

WARSHIP TAKES PARTY (Associated Press.) With its task growing hourly as ad- ditional appeals for aid were sent in from the storm-swept West Indies, the American Red Cross yesterday issued in appeal to the American people for funds and set aside $50,000 of its own money for relief and rehabilitation. The mobilization of resources was determined at a conference between President Coolidge, who is also presi- dent of the Red Cross, and John Barton Payne, chairman of the organization. Messages from chapters in Porto Rico and the Virgin Islands added to thé serious complexion of the catastrophe as pictured yesterday by the chancellor of the University of Porto Riw in the first word received from the stricken island. Destroyer Starts South. The naval destroyer Gilmer left Charleston early yesterday afternoon for Porto Rico carrying Henry M. Baker, national disaster relief director and four associates. Relief work has already been .started there, Manuel Mendia, acting chairman of the island chapter, cabied to national headquarters, but it is “Impossible as yet to obtain data of extent of disaster.” News of the disaster continued meager. The Red Cross was informed by cable from its Virgin Island Chap- ter workers at St. Croix that there was no communication with St. Thomas, the capital and largest city, that hun- dreds were homeless and that clothes and money were needed. The Navy has radio transmitters at these two points and at St. Johns, but had received no information of conditions on the islands. All large Illinois units were asked to render assistance to the Rockford suf- ferers and assistance was proffered also to Gov. Small of that State. Chapters in Nebraska, North and South Dakota have already organized to aid in re- lieving Nebraska sufferers, national headquarters was informed. N. FE. A. Extending Ald. The National Education Association joined in the movement to extend help to the sufferers. J. W. Crabtree, secre- tary, instructed the heads of public in- struction in the stricken areas to “give all possible organized assistance to the Red Cross in making relief effective.” Mr. Crabtree also sent Gov. Towner of Porto Rico the following message: “Our officers request that you advise Chancellor Thomas E. Benner, of the University of Porto Rico, and Commis- sioner of Education Juan B. Huyke, another member of our association, give organized help im rendering relief. Our hearts go out to your wonderful people.” As reports of the northward move- ment. of the storm reached national headquarters here, the Red Cross plan- ned to extend ald to other islands. As- | sistance was offered to the British gov- ernment through the embassy in Washington for sufferers on Grand Turks Island, of the Bahamas group. The sum of 82.000 was cabled to the | their appeal for ald. Corner Reported In Electric Hares Greyhound Racing Body Halts Competition in Mechanical Rabbits. Special to The Washington Post. New York, Sept. 15.—A corner in the mechanical rabbit market was an- nounced today and the American Grey- hound Racing Association, which —is conducting the current meeting at Dongan Hills, Staten Island, moved to stifle competition. Its method was to bring about a consolidation of all the patentees own- ing the mechanical rabbits used on greyhound racing tracks in this coun- try, at a meeting of the inventors and lessees in Chicago. According to Douglas G. Hertz, president of the A. G. R. A., the banding together in one company of the owners of the mechani- cal rabbit patents yirtually throws en- tire control of the sport into the hands of his organization, as it now has title to all but one of the electric hares used as a lure for the racing dogs. The one invention not involved in the corner is used on several tracks, but it is almost prohibitively expensive to constrict and requires so many months for installation that it is not regarded as practicable. And humane societies forbid the use of live rabbits to draw on the greyhounds. Anthony Spiro, Chicago business man and greyhound owner, was selected to rep- resent the patentees, of whom he is one, in the A. G. R. A. Thymus Gland Blow Kills Boy, 12, in Game Special to The Washington Post. Orange, N. J., Sept. 15—A minor blow on an enlarged thymus gland killed Stanley Cysick, 12 years old, of Orange, first victim of a football game in 1928, it was revealed today by an autopsy in Orange Hospital. Dr. H. J. Morris, of that institution, performed the autopsy. He said the boy’s death was somewhat similar to that of Mrs. Catherine Casserly, 30 years old, of Jersey City, who died last Sunday while undergoing a blood transfusion. Both had diseased thymus glands, according to Dr. Morris. Reese Powell, 11l-year- old star of the Bailey Tigers, who struck the blow, today was released in the custody of his father to await the ac- tion of the grand jury. Police and the coroner agree it was an accidental death. Cysick’s team, the Chestnut Stars, were playing the Tigers at Met- calf Memoria] Playground, Orange, yes- terday afternoon when an argument de- veloped that ended in fisticuffs.

Federation Will Hear Textile Wage Dispute New York, Sept. 15 (A.P.).—The executive board of the United Textile Workers of America decided today to bring wage disputes in New Bedford, Mass., and Kenosha, Wis.; before the October convention of the American Federation of Labor in New Orleans. Textile workers in New Bedford and employes of the Allen-A Hosiery Co., in Kenosha, have been on strike for several months. The board also. voted to provide a weekly fund to maintain the New Bedford strikers while they were out of work. This action was taken to mean that the executives had little hope of an immediate agree- ment between the manufacturers, wh have proposed a 10 per cent wage reduction, and the workers. “THE: HIGHLANDS A few suites furnished or unfurnished available Oc- tober Ist.

INTEREST IS AT LOW EBB By DONALD R. WAUGH. Boston, Sept. 15.—An unusual State primary will be held in Massachusetts Tuesday and there are several angles of it which will directly bear on the way the State goes at the national election in November. In two the primary is ex- traordinary. There are an amazingly large number of candidates: 707 Re- publicans and 498 Democrats, in addi- tion to those seeking places on the po- litical committees. Never before has there been so many Secondly, up to the past few days cf the campaign there has been a total lack of interest Even now most of the political discussion relates to the Hoover-Smith fight in November and not to the primary confusion ways Large Vote Seen. Yet there are reasons for expecting a large vote Tuesday. Those who have newly registered because of the na- tional election will also vote Tuesday The largest vote ever cast in Massa- chusetts was at the presidential election, when 1,213,377 persons went to the polls. The secre- tary of state's office has had sufficient ballots printed to allow for a. vote Tuesday of 200,000 to 250,000 more than the 1924 election figure. In various ways does the primary bear upon the direction in which the State’s eighteen electoral votes Swing November 6 The following points may be noted especially: 1. It is vital to the Smith candidacy, in so far as Massachusetts is concerned, that Brig Gen. Charles H. Cole win the Democratic nomination for gover- nor against John J. Cummings. Al- though all the candidates at the Demo- cratic primary talk loudly in favor of Smith, Cole was one of the first and atrongest Smith boosters in the State. During the present campaign the chief cry of his backers has been “Elect Cole to help Smith.” For this reason it is important to the Smith managers tha Cole win large majority. He is the choice of Sena- tor David I. Walsh and all the {mpor- | tant party leaders, but Cummings is a aggressive campaigner who will prob- ably give Cole a close run. Prohibition Live Issue. 2. Prohibition is a live issue in Massachusetts. Two of the three Re-| publican candidates for United States | senator are emphat.caly dry—former | Representative Butler Ames and former | speaker of the Massachuetts House, Benjamin Loring ‘young. The third | candidate, Eben S.

He has the backing of the agricultural and dry groups. Kaynor resigned as postmaster of| Springfield to make the fight and he | is the choice of Bowles. In the Twelfth district, which in- cludes South Boston and parts of the Dorchester and Roxbury sections of | Boston, nine candidates seek the| Democratic nominatior to succeed the | late Representative James A. Gallivan. | The district is overwhelmingly Demo- | cratic and the nomination means elec- tion. Of the nine candidates State Senator | William I, Hennessey, of Dorchester: former State Senator John W. McCor- mack, of South Boston, and School Committeeman Edward M. Sullivan are the leading contenders. There is little to choose between them in issues. Each is wet, each is strongly in back of the Smith candidacy, each argues for the Democratic policies on immigration and education Incumbent Favored. In the Fourteenth district Capt. Richard B. Wigglesworth has been chosen by the Republican ward and town committees to be the successor to the late Representative Louis A Frothingham. Wigglesworth will have no Opponent in the primary and will probably win easily at the election. since the complexion of the district is Republican. While some of the representatives in | the thirteen other districts have oppo- sition, in either the primaries or at the election, each of them is favored to win reelection. Although the Republican contest for senator and other offices which have a national bearing are colorless, with the exception of the angles already men- tioned, there are two heated fights go- ing on for places on the Republican State ticket. In a discussion which has centered on the liquor issue there are eight candidates seeking the nomina- tion for lieutenant governor. No one has a substantial lead over his oppo- nents. Among the four candidates for State treasurer is Fred J. Burrell whose resig- nation from the State treasurership was demanded and received by Gov. Cal- vin Coolidge in 1920, when it was found that Burrell was investing more than the legal amount in a bank that the bank commissioner had closed and was limiting the deposit of State funds to the banks which patronized his ad- vertising agency. There is_ strong chance Burrell may be nominated and the Republican leaders are alarmed. Edgerton, Dry Candidate, Will Speak in Capital James A.

After a late breakfast, the governor togged out for a round of golf, held his dally conference with newspaper in the reception room at the mansion, as he awaited the arrival from New York of two mem- bers of a foursome—his son, “Young A!” as he refers to him, and his bosom friend, Willlam H.

He also remarked that he hai abandoned a plan to take golf clubs aiong with the idea of getting exercise at some of the stops. When some one asked how many brown derbies he would take along, the governor, who has received a number recently as eiits, said ~ “I don’t Know, I have an idea they can be bought en route.” Detailed Plans for Speeches. The eleven car special Gov. Smith, his wife, his daughter, Mrs John A. Warner, and members of his party will travel will leave New York City tomorrow evening. After a stop of a little more than an hour here, it will head westward at mid- night.

Frankfort, Ky., Sept 15.—Kentucky Republicans, in the past usually the underdogs at this stage of a presiden- tial race, were jubilant this week at what they termed signs and portents of a Republican triumph at the polls in November. The State is always debatable ground. | In past years, with the election only seven weeks away, the Democrats have had the upper hand. But that is not true this year. It is who must speed up their machine and pour out money if they hope to turn the tide that has set in for Hoover against Alfred E. Smith. One of the political Indexes to which Republicans pointed this week were figures on Louilsville’s registration. In- Stead of a tremendous drift to Smith in the biggest city of the State, tration showed that the Republicans made the heaviest gains in the party's history Argument Is Two-Sided. Democrats contested the value of the figures, claiming that the recent redis- tricting of the city affected negro pre- cincts for the most part. The bulk of the Republican total of 45,779 was made up of negroes who were registering, Democrats claimed. The Democratic argument, however, works both ways Almost as many Democrats were invotved in the redis- tricting as were Republicans. The Dem- ocratic total was only 25,546 The Democratic registration day de.acle was blamed on a party split in Loultsville Money is the only thing that can heal the split, which involves old enmities and internecine strife. United States Senator Alben W cess in the State resulted from his espousal of the cause, is managing the Smith campaign in Kentucky Barkley’s choice was a compromise Che picked because he repeatedly shown his ability as a vote-getter in first three districts, the most arid section of the State. and because, when he defeated Richard Pretiow Ernst for the United States Senate held the Republican majority in the mountains to a minimum It ts the western comprising the first three districts, that now is in the worst shape Smith Counties in which the Ku Klux Klan ha been i1 the shade politically for two or three years are being reorgan- by Klansmen re- sePnato! has he of the State end Izzed Preachers Attacking Smith. rhe Baptist editors and the Methodist pieachers are thundering against Smith from their pulpits and their chairs” Their arguments will not leeded in the Gibraltar of Kentuck\ Democracy, the First district, where Barkley has rolled up majorities of 22,- 000 or more.

Dollars and the which they are spent will decide issue in the State this year A prac- tical Democratic politician, closely in touch with the situation all over the State, said this week that if the Demo- crats were sent $200,000 somewhere close to election day, the State would go Democratic by around 15,000. such a sum were not available and the Republicans were well heeled financial- ly, the State will go 30,000 Republican, this observer declared. The floating vote is what counts in many counties in Kentucky. Money is astuteness needed to get the tenant tobacco farm- | érs and the residents of. the hinterland to the polls. It ts also an adjunct in persuading them to “vote right.” The State will have an opportunity to look over both candidates for Vice President within the next ten days The impression made by the speeches of Senator Joe T. Robinson and Senator Charles Curtis is expected to have on- siderable bearing on the campaign's progress.

P. STATE FIGHT IS IN DOUBT, By ROBERT G. TUCKER. Special to The Washington Post. Indianapolis, Ind., Sept. 15.—Indlana will give Herbert C. Hoover a majority of at least 100,000, according to the latest estimate of Chairman Eliza Rogers, of the Republican State com- mittee. Senator James E. Watson, who returned to Indiana this week to speak | at Linton and Lafayette, asserted that Hoover will carry this State, but he did not elaborate his prediction with figures. “I never speak of majorities in ad- vance of an election,” said Senator Watson. “However. I feel certain that Hoover will carry Indiana.” Nominees on the Republican ticket who have been holding meetings in | various localities reported at the end _of the week a stronger drift than ever here | among the women in favor of the Re- | publican presidential nominee, but at the same time it became apparent that the campaign managers are lowering their estimates as to the size of the Hoover majority Hoover Figures Reduced, A week or So ago some of them were predicting that Hoover will sweep the State by from 200,000 to 300,000. but the tendency now is to be more con- servative It is understood norses that certain of the who have been through | many hard battles have come to the conclusion that in making what may seem extravagant claims in regard to Hoover the Republicans are placing an additional handicap their State ticket, which it is now more generally held than ever, has a very hard row ahead At this writing there is what is ree garded as a very significant difference in the attitude of the rival managers toward their tickets. The Republicans are going along as though sure of vic- tory for Hoover in Indiana. They are. however, indulging in no rosy forecasts in behalf of Harry G. Leslie, of Lafay- ette, nominee for governor, and his as- sociates on the State ticket. At the Democratic headquarters the ‘onfidence appears supreme in tags ability of Dailey to defeat Leslie. but few of the members of the Democratic managers are saying anything indica:t- ing the hope that Gov. Al Smith will run ahead of Hoover At the opening of the real hostilities into which both organizations are pre- pared to plunge it is an outstanding lean- while the confident On ers are confident of Dailey Republicans feel equally about Hoover. Kian for Republicans, rhis situation, it is being out, means that the campaign is yet to be developed in this State for Gov. Smith so far as the Democrats are cone- cerned, and that on the Republican side there is a big gap between the national and State tickets yet to pe closed.

M ~6.0,P. HEAVY BUNS OPEN ILLINOIS FIGHT Candidates Invade Democrat- ic Strongholds Down-State With Hoover Plea. DRY QUESTION OBTRUDES By ARTHUR B. DONEGAN. Special to The Washington Post. Chicago, Sept. 15.—TIllinois’s political complexion is resuming its normal Re- publican tinge, buf there is no telling yet whether it is permanent or merely the flush of enthusiasm engendered by the opening of a heavy campaign by the Republicans during the week. The last week in Illinois saw the start of a campaign by Republican leaders which promises to be the fastest, most thorough and most furious the party has staged in the State in years. Na- tional and State organizations have joined hands to carry the G. O, P. mes- sage and appeal into every section. They have started by invading Demo- cratic territory in the southern part of the State, and on the home grounds of) the Jeffersonians they have opened a 6lashing attack on Gov. Al Smith and Floyd Thompson, Democratic nominee for governor. The battle is being waged by candi- dates for State and national offices. Secretary of State Louis L. Emmerson, nominee for governor; Otis Glenn, nominee for United States senator; Lieut. Gov. Fred E. Sterling, running to succeed himself, and Mrs, Ruth Hanna McCormick, daughter of Mark Hanna and nomfmee for representative- at-large, are the headliners of the cam- paign party which has pledged itself to carry the fight for Republican victory into every one of the 101 down-State counties. Mrs, McCormick Able Fichter. Mrs. McCormick has proved one of the ablest campaigners of them all. She has taken up the old war cry of her father, “A full dinner pail,” and is sounding it at meetings in the agri- cultural sectons down-State. Emmer- son, Sterling and Glenn are making Hoover their chief appeal and cam- aligning for themselves only by link- ng their names with the presidential nominee’s as candidates on the same ticket. The chief appeal of the Republicans down-State is being made to labor and agrieulture. Recent and long-contin- ual labor troubles in the southern I}- nois coal fields give to the labor appeal a basic strength. The campaign party is bent on driving home to the miners and other laboring factions downstate the fact that Republican victory in Illinois will be Farm relief being a dominant topic in the southern section of the State, the Republicans also are stressing it in their campaign. Hoover and a Re- publican administration are being pic- tured as the only means of restoring prosperity to the corn-belt farmers, and a determined attack on Al Smith and his discussion of farm problems is being made. But Republican successes down-State have been offset somewhat by recent wrangles between Cook County fac- tions of the party. Following the pr!i- mary election last April, when the Small-Thompson-Crowe faction of the party was snowed under, the Deneen- Swanson wing won the upper hand in Cook County and Chicago, peace was made in the Republican ranks and the party was apparently destined for smooth sailing. Dissension In Cook County. In the last week, H®wever, dissension and wrangling have again broken out in Cook County Republican circles, and it will take « lot of patching up before the county machine is again in first- class running order. The trouble broke at a meeting of the fusion campaign committee, composed of members of the Deneen-Swanson bloc and the Thompson-Crowe faction. It had been proposed to exclude county affairs from the series of big massmeetings which will climax the campaign for national and State tickets. This sound- ed lovely until the committee met Tuesday to discuss the proposition and agree on it. At that time Deneen ward leaders denounced it as an attempt to sidetrack local issues and concen- trate on the national ticket so the Democrats would have an easy time gaining control of the county. Deneen followers hurled charges of treachery at the Thompson-Crowe faction and charged that wing with playing into the hands of the Democrats for con- trol of Cook County and Chicago. The meeting was a riotous one, and although leaders made an attempt to smooth the break over and restore harmony, the effects of the clash are still felt in Republican circles here and the much-advertised Cook County “Re- publican harmony” has gotten a tell- ing blow. Meanwhile, the Democrats have been concentrating their campaign in the down-State and consolidating strength in the Chicago area, which now ap- pears to be irrevocably for Al Smith and for all the Democratic State candidates. Democratic efforts are being pushed steadily down-State, with Thompson, gubernatorial aspirant, touring the State and carrying the attack on Republican corruption and Republican “do nothingness” into every corner of Southern and Central Il- linois. Smith Popularity Grows. Democrats are heartened by a Re- publican move which at this time looks like a bit of very bad political judgment. That was the announce- ment of Emmerson, at a down-State meeting a few days ago, that if elected governor he would enforce the prohibi- tion laws to the limit and would wage war on liquor in Illinois. While large rural areas of the downstate are un- alterably dry in their politics, there are several population centers—Peoria, Springfield, East St. Louis, Quincy, Rockford and Rock Island—where lib- eral sentiment is strong and where the Democrats have been gathering strength during the campaign. Downstate reports are that Al Smith's popularity is growing daily in the more heavily populated sections principally because of his liberalism. With the issue now clearly outlined tn these dis- tricts, it is very probable that the normal Republican strength there will be sapped somewhat, and it is possible that it will decline sufficiently to give the Democrats control of these areas. The wet question is becoming more to their best interests. | SMITH SUPPORTER Associated Press Photo. Mme. Ernestine Schumann-Heink, who has announced that she will campaign for Gov. Smith before starting on her next concert tour. and more important in Illinois as the campaign goes on. Within the last week, liberal sentiment has grown, par- ticularly in Chicago, as a flood of lit- erature attacking Al Smith because of his religion has been poured into the State. Much of this has centered in Chicago, and While the greater part of it is anonymous, the general belief is that it is the work of dry organizations, and the result has been a boomerang to dry hopes, in so far as Chicago is concerned. In the down-State, according to re- ports from the counties there, faint attempts are being made to revive the Ku Klux Klan and utilize it as a weapon against Smith in emphasizing his religious affiliations and stirring up sentiment against him HOOVER LAYS PLANS FOR LABOR SUPPORT CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. profess to see admiration in the ranks of labor generally. As one goes into Newark - from Princeton he emerges from the atmo- sphere of culture that characterizes the latter with its university, shaded lawns and shaded streets, into the industrial hubbub that for the space occupled is about as intense as anywhere else in the country. Here he will make his appeal to labor as the governor is speeding out into the Middle West, a country that he can hardly be said to know, to impress his genial personality and discuss farm relief in the light of what he has learned since he became a presidential candidate, to mingle with the aristocracy of the soil Perhaps the present publicity barrage was considered necessary because a few weeks ago the Al Smith automobile tags predominated decidedly around the Newark area. Despite the outward otpimism of Senator Edge and the Re- publican senatorial nominee, Hamilton F. Kean, it would seem that Mr. Hoover is venturing into hostile territory. If he were to make a mistake and go over to Jersey City mishap might easily be his fate. “Prior to 1922 the workers in the steel industry were working twelve hours a day,” the headquarters’ state- ment very accurately recalls. ‘This condition Mr. Hoover deplored, as he believed that a shorter working day would result in the long run a greater outpt and better craftsmanship. Part Hoover Played, “To this end, in 1922, he brought to- gether the. steel manufacturers of America and induced them to establish eight hours throughout the entire steel industry. For 30 years organized labor had been fighting to this end and the pamphlet just issued shows that Mr. Hoover’s efforts were successful in bringing to a close that long fight of the steel workers.” Mr. Hoover believes, too, it was said, “in the correction of abuse of the writ of injunction in labor disputes. Those who have been closely asosciated with him for many years knows that he does not favor the unreasonable use of in- junctions.” This will be Mr. Hoover's greatest problem in his labor appeal. Whether he treats with it in his address is not known. Use of the injunction is one of labor's most serious grievances and the Democrats made it a sharp point of attack in their platform, directing their attack at the Republicans in view of the fact that it has been in the last eight years that the use of injunction has become so prevalent. The injunc- tion issued in the railway shopmen’s strike a few yéars ago was probably the most widesweeping ever given by a court, and it inaugurated the injunc- tion era. Both candidates so far are publicly recorded as being against the “abuse” of the injunction process. The question is what constitutes abuse. Caraway Remarks Resented. Prior to the Republican candidate's closing of his official residence here for the week-end, there came evidence that the Republicans have seized upon the remarks of Senator Caraway, of Arkan- sas, in an effort to toss the religious onus to the Democrats. The Arkansas senator brought Mr. Hoover's church into his remarks recently. A statement by Senator Capper, of Kansas, issued by the Republican head- quarters said ‘ he first appeal to re- ligious bigotry by a responsible member of a political party has now been made in this campaign.” In connection with this it was au- thoritatively made Known that Mr. Hoover would take no notice of the open letter to him from former Gov. Hansbrough of North Dakota, de- manding his attitude on the religious attacks on Gov. Smit... not received by Mr. Hoover, or, rather, was given to the press first, and this is considered ungentlemanly. This atti- tud> puts Senator Borah and his meth- od of handling his prohibition ques- tionnaire in the preconvention cam- paign in rather bad light, but the sena- tor will, of course, understand. The charge of former Senator Under- wood that the Ku Klux Klan is the “left wing” of the Hoover campaign is still on the Hoover shelf, unless Senator Capper’s statement is intended to cope with it.

MENGERT. Special to The Washington Post, Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 15.—Through the week now closing there have been few definite political trends. Repub- lican managers rejoiced, of course, over the result in Maine, but few ac- cepted the outcome as a definite as- surance of what Ohio is to do in November. The news from Maine was followed by dispatches from Colorado that the Republican vote there had fallen off in the primaries and this was enough to revive: the drooping Democratic hopes. There are optimistic Democrats who Claim that the present time is not the one to think of either final vic- tory or defeat. They expect Gov. Smith to make the campaign on the stump and they ask a suspension of Judgment until he gets .into action earnestly. Their claim is that waves of sentiment are bound to run over the country and that this is a “Hoover moon.” They think the Smith sun will shine a little later in the year after a few proposi- tions are clarified. If any one would match the present year for queer twists and turns, let him search long in the musty records of politics. Republicans have no hesi- tancy in supporting Mr. Hoover and at the same time saying many caustic things about fellow workers in the cause. The other day Paul Block, pub- lisher of newspapers at Toledo, Pitts- burgh, Newark, N. J., and Brooklyn, delivered a message on Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, Assistant Attor- ney General of the United States, that might have made the ears of that of- ficial burn. Block branded her as a publicity seeker and said there are people who like publicity but “find that the only way to get it is by bit- ter, and usually unfair, attack.” There are others, he said, who have a “fine sense of true values that they exem- plify in public life.” he said, “belongs in the first category” while Gov. Alvin T. Fuller of Mas- sachusetts “recently provided a _ re- freshing contrast in political philoso- phies.” Gov. Puller, he sald, con- demned “the narrow and bigoted at- titude of such men as and Dr. John Roach Straton.” He con- tinued: Doubt Hoover Was Harmed. “At almost the same time, Mrs brandt, in an impassioned denuncia- tion of Gov. Smith, urged 2,500 clergy- men assembled at Springfield, Ohio, to carry politics into their churches. ‘Take to your pulpits,” was her parting in- junction. Here are typified two widely divergent schools of , polttics. The Fullers, no matter what their party af- fillations may be, win both confidence and votes. The Willebrandts help those they would hurt.” Of course, it is to be doubted whether Mrs. Willebrandt harmed Mr. Hoover in Ohio. This State has a large bigoted vote. Religious intolerance cuts across many party lines. It prob- ably is less bitter today among people as a whole than it was a few years ago. Yet it continues a practical force and a powerful one, too. In discus- sions with ordinary voters those who investigate the causes of action are im- pressed many times with the manner in which men and women frankly ad- mit that they are opposed to the can- didacy of a person of the Catholic faith. The people who have had few of the advantages of life usually speak With greatest candor on the sub- Wille- ject and occasionally one finds a man | or a woman who expresses regret be- cause he or she has this feeling of intolerance, and confesses inability to shake it off. The other type is that of persons better circumstanced who make the utmost endeavor to prevent the admission that there is a back- ground of intolerance. Confidence that Mr. Hoover is to carry Ohio by a big majority has been expressed by Republicans. While Ohio is not, strictly speaking, in the fore- most battle gone this year, the eager- ness to get him into Ohio has been surprising to onlookers. The Buck- eyes have been promised two addresses by Senator Charles Curtis, his running mate, and one from Senator William E. Borah, of Idaho. The Democrats have bccn promised two Smith speeches and these are certain to arouse a great degree of enthusiasm. Smith Gets Negro Support. Investigations among racial groups seem to show that Gov. Smith 1s to have the advantage. He appears to have broken a part of the hold of the Republican organization on the negro vote, a bloc that has been dependable for 60 years. He has made accessions among the business men of liberal in- clinations. Others assert that. they would vote for him if there were any prospect that he could modify the Volstead act. To what extent these gains are to be matched by defections Mrs. Willebrandt, | i the Senator Heflin | ‘Hoover Democrats’? Gain In Tennessee Bolt, Claim 5 Deserters, Not Republicans, Feared by Regular Leaders. Methodists, Baptists, Other Churches and W. C. T. U. Backing Revolt—Public Interest Lags. By WILLIAM 8. HOWLAND. Nashville, Tenn., Sept. 15.—Watching one another like hawks, the three forces, the Democrats, the Republicans and the “Hoover Democrats” which will come to grips in this most doubtful member of the Solid South on Novem- ber 6 are hard at work organizing for the coming campaign upon which the stand of the State in the election will depend. Outwardly confident and classing the G. O. P. hopes of carrying Tennessee as “day dreams,” the Democratic chief- tains from Capt. Tom Henderson, State chairman and campaign manager, all the way down the line are inwardly dublous. They are frankly worried over the strength which Is being shown by the anti-Smith element, although it is doubtful if any of them would admit anxiety even in the most sacred of political --nctums, Anxlety Evident, But the anxiety is definitely there, as is evident from feverish activity that is going on in Democratic camps to make sure that Tennessee will be saved for Smith. There is no sleeping going on in either the Democratic or Republican headquarters. The Dem»- crats are trying to keep their organi- zation together and repair breaches made by bolters. The Republicans, in the most disor- ganized condition in the past 30 years. are trying with might and main to patch up factional difficulties and to get some sort of an organization work- ing together by the time Herbert Hoo- ver reaches Elizabethtown October 6. The anti-Smith or “Hoover Democrat’ force of bolters r'so is busy. Without much practical leadership, bolters are organizing clu’: throughout the State and are undoubtedly gaining in strength and influence. The Methodist Church, the W. C. T. U., the Church of the Nazarene and a large portion of the Baptist Church are backing the bolting Democrats and are carrying on an active “undercover” campaign. As an example of this in Nashville, where the opposition to Smith ts cen- tered, Mrs. E. P. Blair, president of the Davidson County W. C. T. U. and of Nashville Hoover Club, issued an official call ordering all member of the W. Cc. T. U. to attend a ehurch serv- ice at which, it was announced, the pastor would deliver a sermon on “Sev- en Reasons Why the Solid South Should Not Give Its Electoral Votes to Gov Alfred E. Smith.” The sermon is to be delivered by a Baptist pastor in a Baptist church. As an added spur, Mrs. Blair called upon the W. C. T. U. to “beat the crowd that heard Robinson.” Despite the bit- terness between leaders of opposing forces, the people, as a whole are apa- thetic. Tired out by the most stub- bornly fought State campaign in many years, the public has not shown any enthusiasm as yet toward the presiden- tial race. There was little of the old-time ar- | | dor in the reception for Senator Robin- | son, even though he was cordially greet- ed everywhere in the State. So far, the public is content to let leaders shout and, as for itself, take a rest The Republican chieftains, Representative J. Will Taylor, Second District, are counting on a monster gathering of the clans for Hoover, but unless the public warms up in the next two weeks, they will be led by of the | disappointed. If Tennessee ts won for Hoover, it will be won, not by the Republicans, but by the Democrat bolters. The Re- publicans will lose many disgruntled members to Smith, but they are count- ing on getting two Democratic bolters in exchange for every deserter. If they can do that, they can win, bit the large majority of Democrats in the country districts will vote the Demo- in other quarters can not be told at this time. In Ohio affairs, it appears that the vote on State candidates is follow normal party lines. There is no outstanding issue which Is Iikely to upset normal party trends so far as the contest for governor between Myers Y. Cooper, Republican, and _ Repre- sentative Martin L. Davey, Democrat, is concerned. On State and national ballots there are to be six sets of can- didates. Prohibitionist, Soctalist, Communist Worker and Socialist Labor. Alli told, these minority parties scarcely are likely to take 100,000 votes, but they may prevent registering majorities if the contests become close. The one outstanding event of the week was the dispatch of Attorney General Edward C. Turner to Cleve- land to investigate bribery, corruption and crooked counting in the recent primary. Turner asked and got $50,000 with which to make the inquiry and the State may be startled by grand jury indictments during the campaign. Investigation of alleged Cleveland rot- tenness was a plank in the personal platform of Francis M. Poulson, Demo- cratic candidate for attorney general, who lives in Cleveland, and thus one campaign promise has been made good before election. The minority parties are the} likely to! | cratic ticket in spite of “hell and high water.” It will take extraordinary measures to win them over. Hoover Supported. There is another element coming into the picture, which has not been seen before. That is the large business vote in the cities, which is going for Hoover. Business in Tennessee appears to be leary of Smith, in spite of the fact that Rogers Caldwell, the State's biggest business man, is his finance di- rector for the State and a warm sup- rter. Bankers are leaning toward oover. This element, as a whole, is stronger in influence than in votes. Taken as an entirety, the State is still favoring the Democatic ticket. Knoxville and East Tennessee, normally Republican, are showing more Demo- cratic enthusiasm than at any time in recent years. Chattanooga is granted to Smith by a large majority, Memphis will be solidly Democratic. Nashville is a battleground, with Smith opposition centered in that city. In the past week no decisive action has been taken by either party. The forces are “digging in,” skirmishing and scouting or the real offensive that lies ahead in October. In the staff wig- wams big medicine is being made, but th: nature of it has not been disclosed. Noted Mason Tells Why He’s for Smith Justice Scudder Holds Dis- loyal Those Opposing Gov- ernor Because of Faith. New York, Sept. 15 (A.P.).—-Supreme Court Justice Townsend Scudder, for- mer New York State grand master of the Masonic order, in a letter made public today by Democratic national headquarters, declared that a “Free- mason is disloyal to his order and be- trays it who opposes Gov. Smith's elec- tion solely because the governor is a Catholic.” Justice Scudder's letter was in an- swer to a telegram from William Ritchie, jr.. of Omaha,,chairman of the Smith-for-President Clubs in Nebraska, asking the justice to state his reasons |\for supporting Smith “There ts no connection between my Freemasonry, the governor's Catholi- cisam and my advocacy of his election as President,” Justice Scudder’ wrote. “Freemasonry has no concern with any man's religion other than to exact of its members belief in God and moral lives. Freemasonry has no concern with politics other than to urge its members to be loyal citizens, obedient to the laws of their country. I, then, as a Freemason am bound to uphold the Constitution and the laws of my country. These forbid a religious test aS @ qualification for public office.” Work Challenges Robinson’s*Claim ™ » ‘ . ‘ T G. O. P. Chief Charges Nom- inee Misrepresented Facts in Farm Prices.

POLICE HERE ASSAILED > New York, Sept. 15 (A.P.).—A sum- mary of Gov. Smith’s declarations on prohibition, beginning with his mes- sage to the State legislature in 1920, is presented in the Democratic cam- paign handbook, Democratic national | headquarters announced today. Twenty-six pages of the book are devoted to the prohibition issue and the chapter includes extracts fiom Gov. Smith's correspondence on the subject and from the speeches. The book is to be next week. “So far as the party’s presidential candidate is concerned personally,” the announcement said, “the three main facts that stand out in the record are that he ts absolutely opposed to the return of the saloon as the most pro- nounced dry could be; that he pledges issued himself to enforce the existing prohi- | bition law to the limit of his capacity, and that if elected he will sugzest to | Congress and the country at large a | different method which, in his opini»n, will be more conducive to true tem- perance in the United States than the present system.” Crime Figures Given. | The book does not attack prohibition, | but there is a long chapter devoted to the alleged failure of the Harding- Coolidge administration to enforce the | law. There are statistics purporting to show that arrests for drunkenness have | virtually doubled in the seven years of Republican methods of enforcement; that prisons are more crowded than ever; that various indices show great increase of intemperance, crime and il- licit liquor traffic. The indices, the announcement said, were taken from such sources as the United States census, State prison reports and of- ficial records of charity organizations. Concerning the Republican candi- date’s stand on prohibition, the hand- book says: “But the most amazing thing about candidate Hoover's public reference to prohibition is his admission now that there have been grave abuses and that now, seven years and a half after those abuses began, under his own nose and eyes tn the President’s cabinet cham- | the | abuses | ber, there should be a study of matter to find out what the really are and to end them, Metion is Made Target.

GERMANY DRAFTS REPLY Geneva, Sept. 15 (A.P.) —Inside de- velopments in negotiations for evacua- tion of the German Rhineland indicate that the United States will have a vital interest in the financial aspect of the solution of this problem. Evacuation will necessarily raise the question of fixation of total German reparations, it is beliveed, and this will inevitably be linked with the question of debts to the United States by filles in the World War. Just now it appears that in the event of immediate €vacuation the committee of financial experts in studying the new applica- tion of the Dawes plan would estab- lish its relation to interallieqd deb‘s and, either with or without American assistance, frame a new general scheme. The United States would be asked to collaborate either during or after negotiations and requested to do some- thing for a reasonable European finan- cial reconstruction by lowering its debt claim.

STRANGER LAY IN DITCH Special to The Washington Post. Evansville, Ind., Sept. 15.—Evansv' lle police are confronted with a baffling shooting mystery. W. O. Bohannon prominent local attorney, is near death at a local hospital, with a bullet wound in his chest and another in his abdomen, and the body of an un- identified man, which was found in a ditch near Evansville this forenoon, is lying in the morgue. Detectives are working on the the- ory that the two shootings are con- nected. Bohannon was found by his wife sitting in his automobile in front of the home last night. She heard him call for help and stated that before he lapsed in unconsciousness he told her a hold-up man had attempted to take his pocketbook, that he had resisted, and had been shot Farmer Finds Slain Man, He has not regained consciousness to explain more of the mystery, and is not expected to live throughout the night The body of the unidentified man was found by Henry Schwartz, farmer, who tells of hearing the shots last night, and of watching. a car come tear- ing through a corn field near his home, of shouting to stop the car, which the driver refused to do, and of then watching the driver get out apparently to tear away the cornstalks and weeds from the car.

Even though your ear be not mu- sically trained, you will recognize, in the Knabe’s lyric tone, the humanly sympathetic quality that has endeared this piano to Titta Ruffo, to Jeritza, Ponselle, Martinelli, and Scotti. The quality that has made the Knabe the official piano of the Metropolitan Opera Company, and the artistic medium of those great pianists, Rosenthal and Orloff. The quality that will make the Knabe your choice among pianos.

SEPTEMBER 16, CHAOS IN DISTRICT'S LAWS WIPED OUT BY NEW CODE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. this is the National Capital, condition seems paradoxical, but It is not surprising when one ponders the many changes of government that have come about here. To trace the history of the District's legal code, it is mecessary to go back to the time of the Revolutionary War. When Maryland, along with the other colonies, broke away from England, it inherited all the British laws that were not inapplicable. All the com- mon, or unwritten law, was applicable. Trouble Made by Kilty, In 1794, Maryland directed her chan- cellotr, Willlam Kilty, to make a sur- vey and report on what British stat- utes, in his opinion, were still in force in the State. Kilty did this, abiding, however, only by his own personal opinion. To add to the difficulties that later were to face Mooers and Boyd. Kilty simply listed the titles of the British laws. This made it necessary for law- yers then and now to go back to the original sources for the full context of the laws. In any event, that was the state of the law when Maryland, in 1791, ceded part of her territory for the District of Columbia. Virginia also c@ded ter- ritory, but later took it back What is now the District of Columbia was | carved entirely from Maryland. Formation of CGovernment.

Another Change tn Government, In 1874 Congress became disgusted with the existing form of government here and abolished it. Charges of graft and high-handed methods were responsibie. As a substitute, Congress inaugurated the commission form of government, but specified that it was to be temporary | Four years later Congress made the commission form of government a fix- ture, and it has continued to this day. In doing so Congress wrote into the act the old familiar proviso that— “All laws now in force relating to-the District of Columbia, not inconsistent with the provisions of this act, shall remain in full force and effect.” A number of unofficial compilations of the laws of the District had been made, but not until 1901 was an offi- clal code passed by Congress. This code, however, was admittedly deficient, lacking many laws which it should have contained. While it listed such crimes as manslaughter, mayhem and criminal libc! wnd prescribed the penalties, it failed to define man- Slaughter, mayhem and criminal libel, | and the result was that lawyers still must go back to the original sources, No official code has been worked up| since 1901.

GIRLS AGAIN QUESTIONED Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 15 (A.P.).—While private and city detectives in Los Angeles’ were investigating the where- abouts of Clinton S. Carnes, missing Southern Baptist Home Mission Board treasurer, church authorities here were firm in the belief that he had fied to South America. Reiterating that the shortage in the accounts of Carnes would amount to no more than 814,000,000, the home mission board officers here pointed to Carnes’ study of Spanish in recent months and his statemenfs that “won- derful opportunities” existed south of the Equator as bearing out their belief Meanwhile, the office of John A. Boykin, solicitor general of Fulton County, was silent on the _ reported subpena of a “prominent § Atlanta physician” in the Carnes investigation. Carnes disappeared on Auzust’ 15 with the statement that he was going to Raleigh, N. C., on business. He has not been seen since, although two women in Los Angeles for whom Carnes had acted as patron for 22 months tn their study to become movie actresses. were closely questioned this week.

a2 , WARDMAN LAUNCHES GREAT BOND loot $13,500,000 Loan Sought Is Secured by Important Capital Properties. BANKERS VISIT HOLDINGS Details of what is described as one of t largest bond issues secured by real estate made in the country, in- volving $13,500,000, and affecting some of the best-known properties in the National Capital were made _ public yesterday afternoon at a luncheon at Wardman Park Hotel to 300 officials and representatives of investment houses throughout the country. The luncheon followed an inspection tour of the properties of the Wardman Con- struction Co., to whom the loan is to be made. Of outstanding importance was the announcement that the Wardman or- ganization, which formerly operated the Wardman Construction Co., has been divided into three units—the Wardman Corporation, which will be the parent company, and the Ward- man Realty & Construction Co., and we Wardman Real Estate Properties, ne. Management of these companies, it ig stated, will be under the direction of the men who have been responsible for the success of the Wardman or- ganization: Harry Wardman, James D. Hobbs and Thomas P. Bones, in addi- tion to Emory L. Coblentz, chairman of the board of directors of the Po- tomac Edison Co., Maryland banker and owner of several properties in- volved in the financing transaction. Many Bulldings Involved, Financing will take the form of two issues of securities, an $11,000,000 issue of Wardman Real Estat Properties, Inc., first and re‘un’'ng mortgage 61, per cent serial bonds, and $82,500,000 Wardman Realty & Construction Co., 6% per cent debentures. These securi- tles are to be offered publicly in the mear future by a group of investment houses including Halsey, Stuart & Co, Hambleton & Co., A. B. Leach & Co., Caldwell & Co., and William R. Comp- ton Co, The largest of the issues is that of the properties of the Wardman Corpo- ration. This organization will own in fee simple the following buildings: Wardman Park Hotel, Wardman Park Hotel addition, now under construc- tion and to be ready for occupancy the first of January: Carlton Hotel, Six- teenth and K streets; Cathedral Man- sions North anc Cathedral Mansions Center, Connecticut avenue and Klingle road; Boulevard apartments, 2121 New York avenue; Chastleton apartments, Sixteenth and R streets northwest; the four apartment building group at Con- necticut avenue and Davenport street, the Highlands Apartment Hotel, Con- necticut avenue and California street: Stoneleigh Courts, Connecticut avenue and L streets, the Department of Jus- tice Building, Vermont avenue and K street, and the 2700 Connecticut ave- nue apartment building. The Wardman Realty & Con.truction Co. will take over many of the activi- ties of the former company. The new concern will have construction, engt- neering and architectural divisions, and will also operate the large realty brok-~- erage, management, insurance, apprais- al and rental business which has been developed by the Wardman organiza- tion. Special Trains Bring Bankers. Two special trains brought the in- vestment bankers to Washington, one from New York and the other from Chicago. After breakfasting at the Carlton Hotel, they were taken on an inspection tour of the Wardman prop- erties in special buses. At the luncheon session at Wardman Park Hotel the large ballroom was turned over to the entertainment of the bankers, the visitors filling it to capacity. Following the luncheon the business session began, with officials of the un- derwriting companies pointing out the merits of the loan, as well as remarks by officials of the Wardman concern. Those who spoke included E. H. Lieth, general sales manager for Halsey, Stu- art & Co.; C. W. Sills, vice president of the same house; C. B. Stuart, one of the partners; B. F. Troxell, vice president of the A. B, Leach & Co.; Edward Hambleton, of Hambleton & Co.; Emory L. Coblentz, Harry Ward- man, James D. Hobbs and Thomas P. Bones. Adjourning after the business ses- sion, many of the visitors left for a round of golf, and the majority de- parted last night for their respective cities. THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 19238. Trenton Resident Attends Sunday School in Capital Railroad al Has Traveled 326 Miles Each Sabbath to Be resent at Church Which Befriended Him Ten Years Ago. Ten years ago a sightseer in Wash- ington found himself in the predica- ment not unusual to sightseers here. He was lost. The man was more than usually confused, howéver, for it was his first visit to the National Capital, and he knew no one to call up, no ad- dress to give when seeking informa- tion. He saw a big church tin front of him, and not Knowing what else to do went in. There he was received by a man of past middle age who answered his questions and set his mind at rest. His body was also in need of rest, how- ever, and when the minister asked him if he wouldn't like to~sit in at the Bible class while resting, he imme- diately availed himself of the offer. That was in 1918 and every Sunday since the sightseer has “sat in” at that same Sunday school class after a 326- mile train trip from Trenton, N. J. His name is Edward Ireland, who lives in Trenton, and is a workman on the New York division of Pennsylvania Railroad System. The church was the Mount Vernon Place M. E. Church, and the class which has drawn Ireland here for nearly 520 consecutive Sundays is the Pierce Class. Ireland has never missed Sunday school here in that decade unless he was too ill to come, it is said. The Trenton railroader also enjoys another distinction. He is known as “the bard of the New York “vision” among his fellow employes. Ireland is said to compose a poem every hour on the hour, and has had numerous of these pieces of light verse printed in various newspapers.

12 10 OF 100 FIREMEN FACE TRIAL IN YEAR Contrast With Police Great, Latter Force Showing 34 Out of Each 100. SERIOUS CASES FEWER Ten out of every 100 firemen in the District faced trial board charges dur- ing the past year, according to figures compiled by The Washington Post from the annual report of firemen’s activities. This is in contrast to the average of 34 out of every 100 police- men who were called before the Police Trial Board during the same period. Relatively, more than three times as Many trial board cases for the respec- tive forces were indicated when the figures for the Fire Department were compared with those for the Police De- partment published in a recent issue of The Washington Post. In concrete figures only 87 firemen were called before their trial board dur- ing the last twelve months, whereas 454 policemen were called to account in that time. The Fire Department during the past year numbered 863 members. There were 1,348 policemen in the city. Re- duced to percentages, in order to gain a basis of comparison, the number of Fire Department Trial Board cases is slightly more than 10 per cent, while that of the Police Department is slightly less than 34 per cent. Another Marked Contrast. Another marked the two forces contrast between is in the number of men reported as being intoxicated during the year. But five of drunken- ness among firemen were included in the statement for the last fiscal year, while during the corresponding time there were 39 cases in the Police Department. The proportion here is even more markedly in favor of the Fire Depart- ment than in the general figures, for there were virtually eight times as many policemen cited for intoxication, yet the police force is only about one- third larger than the Fire Departmen? personnel. In the 87 cases of firemen before the trial board last year, following were included: Tardiness, 26; wrong failure to pay debts, 15; lack of jJudg- ment, 11; failure to show proper respect, 1; failure to obtain operation permit to drive, 1; failure to obey order, 2; absent without permission, 3: unbecoming conduct, 3; inefficiency, 1; intoxication (fined), 3. In addition to the above, there were three dismissals which are not included in the figures Two of these were for intoxication and one was for failure to obey an order. cited the response, 18; Corresponding Police Figures, The police figures during the corre- sponding period are detailed in the report as follows: Total cases, 454; intoxication, 39; failure to patrol beat, 118; failure to pay debts, 59; conduct prejudicial to good order and discipline of the force, 84. Other cases not given in detail included a variety of offenses, most of them of a minor nature. The total number of cases in which disciplinary action was taken by Fire Department officials last year was 122. This included not only cases serious enough to be called before the trial board, but offenses punishable oy other action. This number also in- cludes the three men. who were dismissed. This record, is, on the whole, paral- leled by that for other recent years. In the fiscal year ended itn June, 1927, there were 114 cases, of which two re- sulted in dismissals. In the 1918-19 year there were almost exactly the same number of cases, 124 being re- corded, but in that total were included no fewer than 80 dismissals, as com- pared with three last year and two the year before. It must also be considered, in con- nection with these figures, that in 1919 the force numbered 499 men, or about 73 per cent of the present staff of 863. Serlous Cases Decrease. There has been a consistent ltecrease in the number of serious cases in the Fire Department in the last ten years, although the total number of discip- linary chses has varied only slightly. This, again, is in decided contrast with the record of the Police Department ‘in ten years. In 1918, when the Police Department personne] was composed of 823 mem- bers, there were but 108 trial board cases, one case for every eight police- men. In the past year, as has been shown, one in every three policemen was called before the board. The Fire Department record for the past year is not unusual, as is attested by the fact that the total number of disciplinary actions taken is higher than that in any year of the last ten, except that in 1919, in 1924 and in 1926 The disciplinary action taken for the past ten years is as follows: In 1919, 124 cases, 80 dismissals; 1920, 102 cases, 29 dismissals; 1921, 87 cases, 16 dismissals; 1922, 79 cases, 5 dis- missals; 1923, 104 cases, 4 dismissals; 1924, 149 cases, 7 dismissals; 1925, 120 cases, 4 dismissals; 1926, 164 cases, 6 dismissals; 1927, 114 cases, 2 dismissals; 1928, 122 cases, 3 dismissals.

For his devotion to duty in face of death in the National Balloon Race May 30, Second Lieut. Uzal G. Ent, Air Corps, Kelly Field, Tex., was awarded the Distinguished Flying Cross yester- day by the War Department, the cita- tion stating “for heroism while par- ticipating in an aerial filght. Lieut. Ent was aid to the late First Lieut. Paul Evert, Air Corps pilot, dur- ing the National Balloon Race starting from Bettis Field, Pittsburgh, Pa. Their balloon was struck by lightning or re- ceived a heavy charge of electricity during a severe electrical storm while over Youngwood at an altitude of ap- proximately 1,200 feet, instantly kill- ing the pilot, setting the balloon on fire and severely shocking and partial- ly paralyzing Lieut. Ent. He endeavored to revive his pilot, not being sure that he had been killed, but was unsuccessful. Although the balloon was burning and slipping he so maneuvered it as to land safely without injury to pri- vate property. When the balloon col- lapsed about 20 feet above the ground the remaining hydrogen gas burned quickly, destroying the envelope and net. Disregarding his own personal safety and with great devotion to duty Lieut. Ent stayed with the balloon at the risk of his life, instead of landing with his parachute. Lieut. Ent was born in Northumber- land, Pa., March 3, 1900. He was grad- uated from West Point in 1924 and was assigned to the Air Corps. He was 7 THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1928. Lieut.

Schenck, who was the star in the trial last spring of Policeman Orville Staples, Police Trial Board two days charges of conduct prejudicial ago on to the but the decision of the board was not made known until yesterday. The board found Schenck guilty on one set of charges and recommended his dismissal from the force, and con- tinued the hearing on the other charges to next Friday. However, should the Commissioners dismiss Schenck from the force, the other charges probably would be thrown out. The charges against Schenck grew out of a raid at 1736 Eighteenth street northwest on August 29, when Schenck was found asleep in an apartment oc- cupied by two wome:r and in which 4 small quantity of liquor was found. Conditions in the Police Department will be considered at a meeting to- morrow evening of the public order committee of the Board of Trade. The meeting will take place in the Raleigh Hotel.

Refuse Crank THE WASHINGTON POST: Case Oil Big Municipal Problem Though Forbidden, It Is Poured Into Sewers and Is a Fire and Explosion Menace—City May Collect and Sell for Refining. Development of the younger indus- tries constantly confronts cities with new problems of public administration. At present the District government is wrestling with the question of what in the world to do with 150,000 gallons per month of highly inflammable refuse oil from automobile crank cases with which is mixed gasoline and other fluid wastes of garages and filling stations. This refuse oil is characterized by J. B. Gordon, sanitary engineer of the District, as a menace to life and prop- erty if it finds its way into the sewer system. And despite the fact that garage and filling-station operators are forbidden under penalty to permit any of it to enter sewers, much of it Is As a re- sult there have been fires, explosions and personal injury in and around sewers and catch basins. There have also been fires and explosions attended by personal injury and property dam- age in and around garage traps re- quired to be installed to prevent olls and other refuse from garage floors from entering the sewer system and in which traps crank-case refuse oll is not supposed to find its way, but does so notwithstanding. Since 1925 the sewer division of the District government has been casting about for a safe and satisfactory way of disposing of the refuse oil. One large oil company reclaims its refuse oll and ships it away to a refinery to be renovated and used again. The Capital Traction Co, and the Black & White Cab Co. operate machines for renovating their own refuse oll. But it is not economical for small garages to do this. Put in Metal Drums. At present garage operators are re- quired to gather the refuse crank-case oll in metal drums and dispose of it without letting it get into sewers. Bui this only transfers to bewildered busi- ness men the problem that the muni- cipality has failed to solve Many have been sending the oi! to dumps and there spilling it. But the dumps be- came so saturated with oll that spon- taneous combustion caused dangerous dump fires, and July 1 that was stopped. It has been suggested that be used to oil roads. it would be effective for this purpose | if it were practical to use it so, that it is unsafe to apply from mobile tanks because of the low Use is found for it} in olling concrete forms, but not} enough can be utilized in this way to | dispose of the supply.

There is objection | burners and too high | but \ to this because the municipality is op- posed, in general policy, to competing with private business, although it ex- tracts and sells grease and oil from garbage May Sell to Contractors. Contracting with individuals to s0 dispose of the oils has been considered, and this project has even gone so far as preparation of a form of contract. Fuel use of the oils by the District in refuse incinerators has been investi- gated, as has been reclaiming for ref- use as lubricating oil for municipal purposes. Anything to keep it out of the sewers, where it is likely to ex- plode. The Bureau of Standards has tested the oil refuse to ascertain its qualities. Sanitary Engineer Gordon during the last fiscal year sent a questionnaire out to other cities to find out what they do about the problem. He received re- plies from 40 American and 11 Euro- pean cities. In the United States 28 cities pro- hibit dumping of refuse oil in sewers and 28 (although it is not stated whether the same ones) require in- stallation of garage traps. Eleven do not require elimination of the oils from sewers and ten do not require garage traps. Three cities collect the refuse oils, nineteen report that it is collected by commercial firms, eight- een report that it is not collected at all. Eleven cities report that oil has caused explosions in sewers, two report fires and twenty-three report trouble in sewers from presence of such oil. Similar answers came from Euro- pean municipalities, although the problem is reported less acute there because there are not so many auto- moblies. What Other Cities Do. Final disposition of refuse reported by the following methods: Pouring on dumps; use in burning city garbage; use otherwise as fuel oll; Olling concrete forms; use by paint manufacturers; oiling roads; pouring on swamp lands to exterminate mos- quitoes, refining, redistiling or filtering for re-use as lubricant Baltimore is cited as more advanced in regulation of refuse oil disposal than the District. It has passed an ordinance making it obiigatory that refuse olls be taken up daily and re- tained in approved = containers proper disposition in accordance decisions of the fire board.

No Quaraniine in Virginia ‘Planned Against Beetle A public hearing to consider the ad- visability of extending the Japanese beetle quarantine to the States of Vir- ginia amd Massachusetts, and of mak- ing its provisions applicable to infesta- | tions of certain other Asiatic beetles, | was announced by the United States | Department of Agriculture yesterday. | It is to be held before the plant| quarantine and control administration | and Federal plant quarantine board, at) 1729 New York avenue, September 24. | Surveys during the summer have re- | sulted in the finding of considerable | numbers of Japanese beetles in several | locations in Alexandria, Va. and) Springfield, Mass. It appears necessary | to extend the quarantine, which pro- hibits the transportation of green | stuffs that might be infested, from the| infested areas. New infestations have been found in Frederick, Hagerstown and Delmar, Md. During the last two months, another dangerous pest was discovered in the District of Columbia similar to the Japanese beetle. It was first discovered in Connecticut. This same pest did severe damage to the sugar cane in Hawaii. Since its discovery, a parasite has been found which has checked the destruction considerably. “The little insect has proved such a dangerous pest to all kinds of trees | work to | from interested kind of to recog- Smith, Bectle at Morristown, N. “We do not hope to ex- beetle, we can only hope It is here, and probably and shrubs, in flowers growing nize that everybody or trees or any plant should learn it,” Loren B. who is in charge of the Japanese Control Laboratory, J.. declared. terminate the to control it. here to stay.” “A thousand grubs have been found om a square yard of ground. Starting at the root of a blade of grass, they the surface, and then down the next blade, devasting entire lawns and meadows. This Japanese bectle differs other Asiatic pests, in that it will only eat in the day time, while others eat only at night.” The most effective method of con- trol yet discovered is the introduction of parasite enemies. The use of sprays against the Japanese beetle was not at first successful for a curious reason, The throat of the insect is very short. Food goes quickly into the stomach and begins to digest. Leaves, therefore, sprayed with lead arsenate or some other poison, make it immediately sick, and it stops feeding before it has taken enough poison to kill it. To get over this difficulty, a soap coating was used on the poison to retard digestion. and control | Alexandrian Arrested | Charged With Desertion Atlanta, Sept. 15 (A.P.).—Charles Phillips, of Alexandria, Va. was held at police headquarters tonight on charges of desertion from the United States Army in pursuance of advices from the commanding officer at Fort Humphries, Va.

Davis, division freight agent of the Southern Railway, with offices here, reports a bumper apple crop. Mr. Davis visited apple centers in Am- herst, Nelson, Albemarle, Rappahan- nock, Warren, Augusta, Rockingham and Shenandoah Counties. He found that Arrington and Ship- man will store 130,000 barrels; 75,000 boxes and barrels will be stored at Covesville and about 65,000 barrels will be shipped from points between Lynchburg and Culpeper. Amherst County is expecting 50,009 barrels and the road is making plans to handle 3,000 carloads from points on the Manassas branch. The quality of ap- ples is reported excellent. 16, 1928. Manassas Farmer Caught by Raiders WANTED Seasoned Salesmen Joseph Kernes Accused of Operating Brandy Distill- nig Plant by Police. Manassas, Va., Sept. 15.—Joseph Kernes, well-known farmer of near Aden, Prince William County, was taken into custody late today when, officers say, he was surprised in the operation of one of the most complete stills ever captured in this county. With the apparatus of the two stills the officers took three gallons of al- leged peach brandy, which they said was ready for market, with three bar- rels of so-called first-run brandy ready for the second working. Officers making the raid were J. P. Kerlin, sheriff of the county; Wallace Partlow, deputy sheriff, and M. A. Lynch, constable. Kernes was brought to Manassas and lodged in the county jail. It is believed he will be released on bond later. He is the father of seven children.

Young Northcott and his mother, who fled the ranch several weeks ago, were believed by authorities to have escaped toward Canada. The elder Northcott was arrested in Los Angeles, where he came when the family aban- doned the farm, The Northcotts deserted their ranch after Clark had been taken into cus- tody by immigration officers investi- gating his entry in this country. The first killing, Clark told detec- tives, was that of the Mexican youth. He was not a witness but knew that it had been done after the younger Northcott had subjected the Mexican boy to a week’s torture. The Collins boy was brought to the farm next. Northcott told him, Clark said, that he was bringing a playmate , and when the boy came he was intro- duced as “Collins.” For a week, Clark related, Collins was subjected to fright- ful tortures while tiea to a bed. Then Northcott wanted to zet rid of him but his mother. according to Clark, was afraid.

Tyrrell today was convicted of second degree murder for the kill- ing of Philip Clark in the Munhail First Christian Church on a Sunday morning last May. The verdict calls for imprisonment not less than 10 years nor 20 years. The case was given to the jury last night. Bight ballots were today before the eight men and women reached their verdict Tyrrell, superintendent of the church Sunday school, had been counsel for Clark’s wife in divorce’ proceedings. On the day of the killing Clark ap- peared at the churc. to urge the re- moval of Tyrrell as Sunday school su- perintendent, on the ground that he was not fit to hold the position. They met in the church auditorium a few minutes before services were to have opened. Tyrrell opened fire and Clark dropped with three bullets in his body. Tyrrell claimed he fired in self de- fense.

SPORTS NEWS FEATURES, FINANCIAL AND M WASHINGTON: SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1928. 15 NEW PEACE PACTO FOR LATIN NATIONG PLAN BY KELLOGG Treaty Similar to European Agreement to Be Offered at Session Here. OPPOSITION EXPECTED TO MONROE DOCTRINE Santiago Convention Is Likely to Be Revived; Hughes to Give His Aid. By WILFRID FLEISHER. Preparations are under way in the State Department for the meeting here in December of the Pan-American Con- ciliation and arbitration conference provided for in a resolution adopted by the sixth _Pan-American Conference at Havana last January, regarded in ad- ministration circles here as one of the most important results of that confer- ence. Fourteen Latin-American na- tions have so far formally accepted the invitation issued by the American Gov- ernment for the meeting in Washing- ton, while replies are still awaited from six more countries. The nations which have so far com- | municated their State Department are Argentina, livia, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Cuba, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Peru, Salvador and Venezuela. Replies are be- ing waited from Chile, Haiti, Hondu- ras, Mexico, Panama and Uruguay, all of which are expected to accept, hav- ing subscribed to the Havana resolu- tion calling for conference. Five Latin- American nations have already named their delezates. acceptances to In State Department's Hands. the | Bo- | Rica, | The sessions will be held in the Pan- | American Union Building here, al- though the arrangements for the meet- ing are in partment.

Mr. Hughes is expected. to come to Washington shortly after his return from Europe, and the conclusion of a speech-makinz program on behalf of the Republican cause. The Pan-American Conciliation and Arbitration Conference will constitute the third important step in Secretary Kellogg’s “peace” program. The Ameri- can delegation is expected to have a clear-cut program to place before the conference as a working basis. will give his preparations. ing from official sources as to nature of this program, it is believed that the American Government will propose the conclusion eral arbitration treaty modeled the series of new arbitration negotiated between the United States and European countries, and that ef- forts will be made to revive the Treaty of Santiago of 1923 as a means of con- Cililation between. the American Re- publics. after treaties Santiago Treaty Purposes, The Santiago treaty “To avoid or pre- | vent conflicts between the American States,” which was drawn up at the Fifth Pan-American conference and has since been ratified by a dozen countries, including the United States, laid idle until the State Department took steps last April to give effect to it by issuing a.call for the organization in Washing- ton and Montevideo, Uruguay, of per- manent commissions provided in the treaty to receive requests for concilia- tion. Secretary Kellogg’s action in set- ting up this machinery is seen as fore- shadowing a move at the forthcoming conference to revive the treaty and seek its adoption by a of nations. The treaty provides for a special com- mission of inquiry in the case of “all controversies which for any cause what- aoever” may arise between the contract- ing parties and which “it has been im- possible to settle through diplomatic channels or to submit to arbitration in accordance with existing treaties.” The commission is to render its re- port within one year from the date of its inauguration during which time the parties to the dispute undertake “not to begin mobilization or concentration of troope on the frontier of the other party, nor to engage in any hostile act or preparations for hostilities.” A further period of six months is avail- able for renewed negotiations in the event that the report is not acceptable to the contending parties. Monroe Doctrine Discussion. If the United States should propose, in a compact with Latin-American na- tions, to exclude from arbitration ques- tions involving the Monroe Doctrine as in the case of arbitration treaties with European nations, it is likely that lively opposition will develop on the part of certain Latin-American countries who pretend to see in the Monroe Doctrine the establishment of a protectorate on the part of the United States over the Western Hemi- sphere. This attitude has been indicated by some of the Latin-American diplomats here, a number of whom are likely to be represented on their delegations, and who express the opinion that the ex- clusion from arbitration of questions involving the Monroe Doctrine would leave the United States free to arbi- trate only such questions as she de- sired. Latin-American diplomats here recall that the United States has in the past consistently opposed compulsory arbi- tration, but Secretary Kellogg has stated that he intends to carry out the terms of the Havana resolution which places the nations on record as favor ing the adoption of this means for the settlement of differences of a juridical nature between the American states. Opinions Held by Hughes. The American reply to these argu- ments may be found in the address de- livered by Charles E. Hughes as Sec~- retary of State, before the American Bar Association on August 30, 1923, in “which he declared: “The Monroe Doctrine does not at- tempt to establish a protectorate over Latin-American states. Certainly the declaration that intervention by non- American powers encroaching upon the independence of American states will be regarded as dangerous tc our own safety, gives no justification for such intervention on our part. “If such foreign interposition is deemec menacing to us and our vig- orous determination to oppose it serves to saf the independence of American states, they can have no just While | no announcement has been forthcom- | the ' of a multilat- | larger number | the hands of the State De- per- | by Charles E. | Kellogg | ge ag fF Fears Were Felt Measure Would Be Sidetracked for Treaty Discussion, While Britain and Japan Are Going Ahead, Reports Say, Building Ships.

The added prospect of an- other naval arms limitation conference before the cruiser bill is disposed of created something akin to dismay in naval circles.

Held Up Thus, the American cruiser program was held up in the Senate at the last session, after it passed the House, and will probably be held up again unless it is given the right of way over the peace treaty. An outline of how American naval strength compares with that of Great Britain and Japan, par- ticularly since the Washington arms conference will, it is hoped, be studied and appreciated by the Senate. Since the Washington arms confer- ence, designed to put an end to com- petitive navy building, the United States has laid down nineteen ships having an aggregate tonnage of 137,790. The British have laid down 37 ships with a total tonnage of 303,769. The Japanese have laid down 95 ships with a tonnage of 349,441. The British and Japanese figures Pshow that these nations blossomed out in another type of construction—the cruiser type—as soon as capital ships became limited by the Washington agreement. Great Britain has laid down 108,000 tons of up-to-the-minute first-line cruisers and the Japanese have laid down 108,285 tons as against 60,000 tons laid down by the United States. A comparison of British and Amer- ican cruiser strength and building programs shows the over- whelming advantage which the Brit- ish secured. The data sheet for American cruisers shows ten cruisérs of the Omaha class, completed from 1923 to 1925, having a standard ton- nage.of 7.200 and carrying 6-inch guns. The rest of America’s cruiser stren;zth consists of 22 obsolete cruisers, in- cluding such ships as the Rocherter in Senate. objection on that score, being the more secure to develop their own life wifh- out hindrance.” The conclusion of a multilatera) ar- bitration treaty’ among the American republics and the establishment of means of conciliation, possihly through the extension of the Santiago t-eaty, would in all probability constitute a substitute for the series of Root arbi- tration and Bryan conciliation treaties now in effect between the United i3tates and Latin-American countries.

To pave the way for parity with Britain, the Navy Department at the last session of Congress called for a building program of five 10,000-ton cruisers a year over a five-year period, or 25 cruisers, in addition to five air- plane carriers, etc. The House of Rep- resegtatives passed a cruiser-construc- tion bill authorizing 15 cruisers of 10,- 000 tons and one airplane carrier.

They are, however, an asset to the fleet, but Admiral Charles F. Hughes, chief of naval operations, has explained to Congress that suf- ficient cruiser strength is necessary to permit proper utilization of the de- stroyers. “These destroyers are relatively help- less against the light cruiser, having 8-inch or 6-inch guns, as against 4-inch or 5-inch guns of the destroyer,” Ad- miral Hughes states. “The speed of the light cruisers 1s equal to that of the destroyers in a smooth sea, and considerably exceeds that of a destroyer in a heavy sea. Thus the light cruiser with greater gun range and equal or superior speed can destroy our destroyers with im- punity. In order to utilize our superior destroyer tonnage it is important that we should be able to protect our de- stroyers against the light cruisers of other powers.” The United States is above the 5-5-3 ratio in destroyers, but American destroyers will soon reach the age limit of 16 years in large numbers. In 1934 there will become obsolete 50 1 American destroyers and in 1935 there will be addeq 105 more on the obsolete list. Meanwhile, the British are building seventeen destroyer leaders. These are superdestroyers, or larger types of de- stroyers, used as the flagship of de- stroyer squadrons and more reliable and speedy than the other vessels in the squadron. They range from 2,000 to 2,200 tons. The United States Navy has asked for vessels of this type, but so far has been unable to convince Congress of the need for them. The effective strength of the United States Navy in airplane carriers consists of two units, the Saratoga and the Lex- ington. The construction bill, as it has passed the House, calls for one airplane carrier as against five recommended by the Navy Department.

From the moment that he took up the reins of the Democratic party Tam- many, @ component part of his organi- zation, was anathema to him. He swept up and down the country deriding it, lambasting it. The Republicans never had to say a word or had they the op- portunity to say it. , It was for them to wait until Mr. Bryan's death ,when Tammany. or, rather, one of its products attained as- cendency The way had been paved. _It had been paved over the years by | Mr. Bryan, paved with feet-cutting stones. Now all the Republicans appar- | ently have to do is to go along spread- | ing the hot asphalt. | Just what is Tammany, about which | the majority of the people in the coun- 'try would probably never had heard had it not been for Mr. Bryan. Is it ' some octopus that is viciously to embrace the country? Of course, it is not. It is a compo- nent of the very organization over which Mr. Bryan presided, the Demo- cratic political organization of the City of New York. It is no better nor any worse than the average city or- ganization anywhere. It believes that to the victor go the spoils. The men who manage it quite likely do not do so because of their love of the game. It holds to the theory that to men who devote their time to politics are due the political compensations there- for, a theory incidentally that has come generally to be accepted in the Ameri- can scheme of life. The very idealists who decry it will pretty soon have a Tammany of their own and khecome a part of one if they get very far and remain in Amerfcan public life. Many Other Tammanys. Philadelphia has a Tammany, incl- dentally one that vies with, and the Democrats say, is far more sinister and wicked than, the Tammany of New York. Washington has one. Gen- erally it is known as the “big five.” If there is a city in the country that has not one it must be some unadver- tised Elysian Fields. As to the New York Tammany’s am- bitions, its reaching out to wrongfully embrace the entire country, the worst that the Republicans charge is that it indirectly aspires just now to have a hand in an election aaross the river in the Queens borough district of Brook- lyn. It would not have much luck grab- bing up the rest of the country be- cause the other Tammanys would re- sent it. They insist on the political spoils in their town. Gov. Smith came up by way of Tam- many. He used to take his orders from it just as any man rising in life takes orders before he is in’ position to give them. He is in that position now and has been for a long time. In the mat- ter of New York City patronage the governor recognizes Tammany and will continue to do so if elected president just as Mr. Hoover will recognize Repre- sentative J. Will Taylor, of Tennessee, or at least Mr. Taylor thinks he will. It maybe that the Tennessee patronage dispenser will be Horace A. Mann or Claudius C. Houston. A study of Gov. Smith’s close advisers reveals a singular absence of Tammany men. The men who first began pressing his presidential candidacy. Franklin D. Roosevelt and George E. Brennan, of Illinois, and undoubtly others, were cer- tainly ‘not Tammany men, But Tam- many, Tammany—Tammany this and Tammany that lends itself to a swing.

They will point out to members of the commission that their very existence is being jeopardized by the smelting process across the Canadian border; that their homesteads are being rendered unfit to live in; their fields made barren, and their harvests ruined by the menace in British Columbia. is Commission's Powers Absolute. From these facts the international commission will have to make a deci- sion, and whatever that decision may turn out to be, it will be a binding one, The powers of the American-Cana- dian body in such matters is absolute, and there is no disobeying the edict which it. issues.

OF HOLLAND TO SEE: HERSELF PILLORIED Betrothal of Throne Heiress Will Go on Humorous “Pillar of Dishonor.” JULIANA’S LEYDEN DAYS CALLED HAPPIEST ONES Under Discreet Supervision, She Is Permitted Freedom of Ordinary Girls. ee ee Leyden, Holland, Sept. 15 (A.P.).— No matter to whom Princess Juliana, heiress to the throne of the Nethere lands, may decide to be married, she will be pilloried upon the announces ment of her engagement. That is, her name and that of her fiance will be struck up on a post, humorously nicknamed the “pillar of dishonor,” in the Women Students Club of Leyden University. Julians will not be spared the “disgrace.” The Dutch crown princess probably will look back upon her college days as the happiest of her life. She enjoys more freedom at Leyden than she can possibly indulge in at the royal castle at The Hague, where a rigid court ate mosphere prevails. How rigid these ree strictions are may be judged from the remark the 19-year-old princess made when told she could matriculate at Leyden. “Fine, then I can wear high heels.” At Leyden, everything possible {is done to permit her to live a carefree life. To be sure, a secret service man shadows her unobtrusively. And at her villa at Kattwyk on the North Sea, about ten miles from Leyden, the princess and four girl friends who live with her are more than adequately chaperoned by ladies in waiting. But aside from this Juliana leads the life of an ordinary college girl. Followed Student Code. When the crown princess entered Leyden a year ago, she stated emphat- ically that she wished to be treated just like any other student. Hence, when she joined the Women Students’ Club, she did what is customary for all freshmen to do—called on the members of the executive committee at their various boarding houses. “My daughter offered to reverse the process and call on the princess,” the mother of one of them said, “but she would not have it. She came as simply and modestly and, I may add, as bash- fully as any new student.” Like any other freshman, she sat on contend | the floor whenever there wern’t enough seats during a lecture or at some club function The oniy concession made to her position is the fact that all the classes she attends are held in the same class- room. It is on the second floor of the main hall, and can be reached only via an open staircase. “This makes it easy for the secret service to check up on everybody who enters and leaves the lecture hall,” the head janitor ex- plained. Princess Juliana’s studies comprise international and public law, Dutch history, Dutch literature, French, Gere man and theology. As Hollang has @ state church, it was felt desirable that the princess study theological lore, especially church history. One of her professors described her as “standing half way between the orthodox and the modernist schools of Dutch Protestant theology.” Is Fond of Literature. As to the range of her readings, the professor said: “The princess reads up on the mos¢ varied topics. She is particularly fond of literature, especially of contempo- raneous writers, but also studies with interest such works as Trotzky'’s book on the Russian revolution. Her com- ment on it was, ‘Trotzky is certainly a man of strong views.’” Juliana is an enthusiastic member of the Women Students Club, which has a membership of 425. Until this autumn, it occupied. rooms in the con- servatory of music. Hardly a day passed but that Juliana dropped in there. Each year freshmen members com- pete in writing a class song. Jullanse entered the contest with 120 girls... Her song was accepted as the best. “We had no idea that the princess come peted,” a member of the song jury told the correspondent. “The authors’ names were contained in sealed ene velopes, which were opened only after the award had been made.” Juliana’s club is now housed in &a spacious mansion, the home of a late bourgomaster, only a few doors from the university main hall. “Princess Jullana’s joining helped our club considerably,” one of the trustees said. “To acquire this prop- erty we had to issue bonds, and the fact that the princess took a gen- erous share of them naturally helped us elsewhere.” Likes to Go Shopping. Among the students and townsfok of Leyden Princess Juliana is gene erally known as a “good fellow.” She loves to go shopping, to munch cakes in some pastry shop, to explore the winding streets of centuries-old Ley- den. Like her father, she is musical. She plays the violin and attends the local concerts regularly. From her mother she has inherited a certain talent for painting. Ice skating is about the only out- doors sport of which Princess Juliana is fond. Her mother tried in vain to interest her in horseback riding. She likes camping, however, and during the summer often spends the week- end at Apeldoorn, where she and her friends have a tent. She travels there in the ordinary interurban omnibus. Lipsticks and rouge are unknown quantities to this healthy buxom Dutch lass. Whether she would prefer bobbed hair and shorter skirts than her mother permits has not been dis- closed. - Companions of Princess. The four young women who share the villa at Katwyk with her are two daughters of the Rev. Michelin, of The Hague; a French Huguenot preacher, Miss De Brauw, whose father is dean of the Dutch barristers, and Miss Ros- enboom, daughter of a former governor general of the Dutch East Indies. While other people are shaking their heads over the question of who shall be the prince consort, the husband of Juliana, the sole heir to the House of Orange herself declines to bother about it. She is quite eontent'for the present to lead the careless life of a coed. an@ her rather bored air at court funce © tions would seem to indicate ®hat she'd far rather be an ordinary human : being than “the Lord's anointed.”

G. VOSBURGH (Associated Press Sports Writer). OREST HILL, N. Y., Sept. 15 (A.P.) American teniiis vo have of those battles of the rapier and the bludgeon. The fencer’s blade | io one | of | | Henri Cochet, of France, is to be pit- | ted against the slugging power of Fran- | icis T. Hunter, the lone surviving Amer- |} ican | cheering, | Lott, of Chicago, by scores of 6 | 6—3, i the , Shields | pion 15 to 1, froin a field of 24 royally bred | youngsters. A head back came Roguish Eye. Frankie Coltiletti with up, clearly outridden by McAtee. while three lengths further off was George D. Windener's Jack High, winner of the Saratoga Hopeful. It was the consensus that had a better rider been on Bath House John’s Roguish Eye, this Western star must have taken down the whole pot; the greatest stake in history Blue Larkspur, favorite could never make any the leaders with his age and had to eighth place. Earl Sande, on J. E. Widener’s Curate, and who today was making his last appearance in the saddle, finished last. When High Strung got home in 1:19 for the near seven furlongs journey he established a new at 9 to 5. impression on 130-pound pack- be content with | ten | skillful course record smoth- ; ering that of Valorous two years ago, | in 1:21 3-5. MeAtee affirmed after the race that he was in command of the pace and led throughout. Colti- letti stated that Jack High swerved into him soon after the break and knocked his colt off his stride. The leaders three-eighths of a mile from the wire were those which gal- loped off with the major portion of the money. High Strung had a slight advantaze | over Roguish Eye at the last quarter pole and the two were quickly separat- ing themselves from the rest of the runners, chief of whom was Jack High whose 130 pounds began to set heavily at the last furlong pole. With High Strung and Roguish Eye fighting it out to the last stride, the East just beat the West in a stirring finish. Sande made amends for his last in the Futurity by taking the track in the Stalwart Handicap at seven fur- longs on J. E. Widener’s Osmand, An odds-on choice. He went off in front and won cleverly by a length and a half. Polish, with Barnes up, was always second best and beat Ingrid, ridden by Callahan, handily for the place. Chick Lang on Reigh Count, America’s greatest 3-year-old, galloped his field dizzy in the Jockey Club Cup in which at one time he was eight lengths in front. In the end he was a length and a half ahead of Chance Shot, on which Sande wound up his long riding career, and Display was a distant third. Reigh Count was a $-to-4 shot. Nationals Buy Harris, Minneapolis Fly Hawk Outfielder Spencer Harris, former Chicago White Sox, has been pur- chased from the Minneapolis Club, ac- cording to President Clark Griffith, who evidently has changed his mind in this case, for only a few days ago he intimated that the Nationals would pass up Harris in favor of Meiburn Simons. The Nat owner now believes that it would be wiser to give both of these youngsters the “once over.” Harris is batting at a .329 clip for the Millers and has been specializing in extra-basers, his records showing him leading the American Association in home runs, with 32, while he has poled out 28 doubles and 4 triples. Pirates Buy Catcher; Sign College Hurler Pittsburgh, Pa., Sept. 15 (A.P.).—The purchase of Catcher Roy Spencer from the Indianapolis Club, of the American Association and the signing of Pitcher Ralph Erickson, left-handed twirler, who formerly pitched for the University of Idaho Nine, today was announced by the Pittsburgh National League Club officials. Spencer caught for the Pirates in 1925, 1926 and 1927, but was released outright to Indianapolis last winter. Erickson played with the Boise Club of the Utah-Idaho League during the lat- ter part of the present season, but be- came a free agent at the close of the season. Both players will report to the Pirates next spring. Clyde Barnhart, veteran outfielder, sent to Indianapolis on option several weeks ago, was among the eight per- formers recalled. The others were Catcher Claude Linton, from Decatur; Infielder Coburn Jones, from Bridge- port; Pitcher Lester Bartholomew, from Dallas; First Baseman Willis Windle and Pitcher Glen Spencer, from Co- lumbia. Glen Spencer and Windle will join the Pirates in New York Monday. The others will join the club next spring. New Orleans Dog Races Lose Battle in Court New Orleans, Sept. 15 (A.P.).—The constitutionality of the Louisiana law prohibiting greyhound racing from 6 p. m. to 6 a. m. was upheld today by Judge Rivardo, in District Court. He denied an injunction to restrain Jef- ferson Parish officers from interfering with the Louisiana Greyhound Club. The club operated a track in Jef- ferson Parish, just outside the leans ed limits and all the racing at night.

Not to be outdone in the scoring mart, the Tigers pushed over a couple in person in their half of this round. Stone opened by scratching a singie through Judge. Gehringer singled to right and was forced at second when Harry Rice grounded to Harris. Heil- mann socked out a three-bagger to center, scoring Stone and H. Rice, while the next two went down in order. Taking advantage of a two-ply error by Gehringer the Senators rolled up a trio of runs in the second trame which Harris start- ed with a single to right. Cronin dropped the ball safely in the same spot and Braxton obliged by fan- ning. Not so West, however, for he trickled a single down third base line to score Harris and placed Cronin on second. After Rice grounded to Whitehill Goslin roiled to Gehringer who kicked the ball around long enough to allow Goslin a safe journey to the initial sack. In trying to nip Cronin at the plate he threw wild and Cronin scored with West chasing over after him. Bluege grounded to Mc- anus to end this rally. across with | Washington rested a frame and ther resumed scoring hostilities by counting three in the fourth.

% GRIFFITH SEES STRONGER TEAM IN 39 ON ROSTER ee 15 Twirlers To Fight for Berths Only Marberry, Had- ley, Jones, Braxton Called Regulars. Shirley to Make Bid to Oust Judge; Goslin Is Problem. By FRANK H. YOUNG. HE closed season is on in the base- ball mart, and the next deals in gk Which the Washington Club will figure will be the announcement of which players, if any, are drawn in the baseball draft to be conducted dur- ing the world’s series week. This means that President Clark Griffith has just about accomplished all that he can in connection with his rebuilding of the Nationals for the 1929 season. Whether or not Manager Harris again will be at the most important question still to be caecided, and the Nats’ owner is sawing wood and saying nothing on this sub- ject His usual answer when ques- tioned regarding Boss Buckey’s future here is: “You fellows keep on guessing. You know I-never discuss matters of this kind while the season is still on.” Griffith does not follow this rule in connection with general discussions. however, and he believes that in the 39 players now lined up for the next pen- nant race he has the makings of a first-class baseball machine, with com- petition promised for every position. Fifteen pitchers are due to fight for berths. On what they have Shown this season, Hadley, Jones and Marberry, of the orthodox flingers, and Braxton, of the south- paws, are the only ones sure of jobs, with both Burke and Brown figuring to have a chance. Gaston was a failure while Weaver has not yet had a real trial.

Oss is in the race, but not seriously, and probably will be shunted back to the Barons to replace Shirley. Spencer Harris only new The former trial last spring, but has been going great guns this seasor with the stick, while also hav- ing improved as a flychaser. Bigelow, while a slugger from Slugersville, is Slow afoot and would have to hit con- sistently hard in order to make up for his fielding shortcomings. Harris has been up with the White Sox and showed promise with the Millers this year, es- pecially as a long-distance hitter The only newcomers to be seen ing for the positions on the left of the infield are Pete Yoter and Jay Partridge. The former is a third base- man who is said to be a wizard, while Partridge, an ex-Robin, is noted as a comer with a chance to stick. Home fans know of Stewart’s capabilities. He is the same speed-boy of old, but has developed as a hitter, in the minors, at least. Jack Hayes and Grant Gillis are coming back, both greatly improved. The veteran, Mike Kelly, manager of Minneapolis, declares that Hayes has developed into the best second base- man he has seen in the minors in years, He has been a sure fielder with the Millers, a fine thrower, a good worker on double plays, and has been hitting better than .300 since the day he reported. Gillis, too, has developed smoothness and polish during his stay in the bushes and is said to have a chance of crowding both Cronin and Reeves out of the shortstop picture. Simons, are the ralled. and Bie outfielders cor- was fiven a failed, but try ide All in all, President Griffith is well pleased with the class of candidates he has lined up, and his only worry is whether or not the off-season rest will bring Goose Goslin’s crippled throwing arm back to normalcy. Improvement has been noted of late and, if the left- fielder reports next spring ready both to throw and hit, the Nats’ owner states that he will take his chances on molding a good team from the material he has. Should Goslin’s afm fail to benefit from the rest, then Griffith ad- mits that he will have a real worry. The Nats have not yet quit looking for talent and, in addition to getting two or three players in the draft, one or two more are likely to be signed during the winter. However, the field will have been pretty well cleaned out of good playefs by that time, and what few players are signed between now and next year are not likely to be of much promise.

Coach Starts 5th Season At Hilltop Veteran Line Is Asset of Georgetown Mentor. /Liston and Carroll Are Seen as All- American Timber. By ARTHUR A, HEYWOOD (Staff Correspondent of The Post). ILDWOOD, N. J., Sept. 15.—A W week from Saturday, when Georgetown meets Mount St. Mary’s, Lou Little, head coach of foot- ball, will be inaugurating his fifth year at the hilltop and many who have bern watching the preliminary training here at Wildwood believe that he has in the making the greatest team Georgetown has had under his reign. Coach Little himself believes that he has a great team, but he will not admit as much for publication. The George- town mentor is not exactly a Gil Dobie, but, like all football coaches, is not publicly optimistic. “We look weaker than we have for the last three years” Little said. “we lack experience. We have a good line, but it is not going to look so good without Grigsby to back it up. We alos lost Nork, a great passer.” Georgetown practicaly will have a veteran line with the exception of the center position. At this post Little has three good men in Zimowski, Morriss and Wynkoop. Zimowski and Morriss are smashing defensive players, who drive right in at the play and are deadly tacklers. Wynkoop has also had enough experience to make him a valu- able man. Little could ask for no _ better guards than Paul Liston and Capt. Jerome Carroll, both of whom will make a great bid for all-American honors if they can be brought to the right mental pitch, which will make them play at their best throughout the whole nine-game schedule. Jim Mooney and Cordovano can be termed veterans and both should be at their best this year at tackle. The same should be true of Provincial and Tomaini, the ends. Both played regu- lafly last season. The passing of Scalzi, who appears to be Georgetown’s best bet at the vacant quarter back position, and also of Hudak, does not leave the team in such bad straits for want of a passer. The other first string backs, Schmidt, Duplin and Barabas, are all experienced men. Barabas should develop before season gets many weeks old into of the greatest backs Georgetown ever had. For the the one last three or four years Georgetown has been rated near the top. Last year among Eastern teams it was placed in the second group just below Pittsburgh and Yale, which were adjudged the best the East had to offer The first year that Little took over the coaching of the George- town team he enjoved a fair season, winning four, losing three and ty- ing two games, but the next sea- son he launched a campaign which brought Georgetown from com- parative obscurity in the collegiate football world to a firm position among the topnotchers, Georgetown drew § recognition in by defeating Fordham at York after Fordham had en- joyed a great year by a 27-to-0 score Centre was beaten, 40 to 0, and Lehigh © EXPECT TO MAKE SPLASH FOR CENTRAL IN SWIMMING MEETS red J. pictured above Coach Brunner already (front to back) are 'T, has called out Central's candidates for swimming and 1).

B: i the and Detroit were easy victims In the last three years Georgetown has lost only four games. The Hilltoppers were beaten in 1925 by Bucknell, 3 to 2; lost to Navy, 10 to 7; to West Virginia, 13 to 10, in 1926, and to Syracuse last sea- pon. As Little looks back, he picks the Syracuse game in 1926 as the greatest game any of his teams have played. Georgetown won, 13 to 7. Fans no doubt will recall some of the great players developed at the Hilltop in recent years, such as Haggerty, a half back: Plansky, a full back; Con- Maughton, all-American guard and tackle of the 1926 team; Gormley, quar- ter back: McGrath, captain and end in 1926, and Nork and Grigsby. of last year’s team, half back and center, re- spectively. The latter was prominently mentioned as an all-American choice Haggerty and Plansky were members of the great 1925 eleven. These are only a few of the players developed by Little in the last four years. RICES VS. LIONELS. The Sam Rice Midgets will play the Lionels today on diamond No. 3 at 1 o’clock.

Line Is Chief Concern Of Coaches at Lehigh Bethlehem, Pa., Sept. 15.—With the conclusion of. the first week of pre- liminary practice devoted primarily to fundamentals with special emphasis on defensive tactiis, Coach Tate has his 80 candidates fairly well classified, al- though no distinction has been made to date between the varsity squad and the scrubs. It has developed from this first week of practice that the development of dependable linemen _ especially guards and tackles will be the greatest problem of the Lehigh coaches. The pivot post is well taken care of by Tommy Ayre, veteran from last year, who showed rapid improvement in the later games. He will have plenty of competition for his place from Stutts and Twigger, of last year’s yearling team. The ends will be filled mostly by sophomores. Purvis, Rushong, Hays, Gadd, Enscoe and Woltemate all have shown considerable promise for the wing positions but they lack varsity experience. Landis, a veteran, has also been showing to fair advantage during this week's sessions. Even though there are several veter- ans for the guard and tackle positions, the coaches are far from satisfied with their showing to date. Breman, Black- mar, Soe Kirkpatrick, Hall and Hoast- er are the outstanding but their work is below the standard set by Coach Tate and his staff.

Should Georgetown win the first game, a second will not be necessary, how- ever, as result of the defeat of the Auths in the first game of the series last Sunday. Georgetown has won the Capital City League banner in the un- limited division for the past two years and in 1925, while known as the Knickerbockers, also won the city title, interrupting the reign of the Sham- rocks. Fans who saw last Sunday's game when the Georgetown A.

The Auths' greatest handicap was their stage fright, which affected departments of play.

The Auths could get but five balls into the outfield off Hughes’ delivery last week, while but three hit the bail safely. Anything can happen in baseball, though, even where two top-notch sand-lot clubs are concerned, and may- be the Auths will play the ball which gave them the championship of Sec- tion B.

‘22 THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1928. VOIGT REACHES GOLF HEIGHTS AFTER UPHILL Links Career Started as Caddy Climb Began on Muny Course in 1923; Won Post Cup. Tied 36-Hole Record at Pinehurst; Led ’28 Title Qualifiers. By HENRY LITCHFIELD WEST. WENTY or more years ago George J. Voigt, then some 12 or 13 years old, caddied on the course of the old Columbia Golf Club on Georgia avenue, for the writer, who remembers him well. The boy was attentive, watch- ful, efficient. In short, he was a good caddy. From the standpoint of the golfer there could be no higher praise. Voigt was born 31 years ago in what is known as the Brightwood section of the city, then some distance out in the suburbs. His home was only one block away from the seventeenth tee of the golf course and in a walk of four five minutes he was at the caddy house As soon as he was old enough to carry a golf bag he went up to the caddy master and secured a job. He caddied for Dr. Lee L. Harban, who was later District amateur champion; Dr. Walter S. Harban, Arthur S. Mattingly and many others who are now veterans, 45 well as for scores of golfers who have since ended their earthly round He was a slim little lad. with a cheerful smile whicn won him many an extra dime Nobody gave away quarters in those days like they do now. “yr Ile as a golfing water. clubs started “addy was not only but game Ile and a good he took a duck always the green caddy, the to caddy, to takes swinging is Was when other boys putting the with in the ground instead of cups, he was win- ning nickels through an uncanny accuracy in holing out.

Voigt is, and golfer Shakespeare Tennyson wrote golf He "i lS, a wrote plays poetry Voigt playec vent to school, of his old hoolmates at School were, like himself, caddles, rving up to the course after school and earning something on Saturdays and Sundays. Many of those former cad- dies—William P. di Este, Louis T di} Este. George C. Gist and others—-are now members of the Argyle Club, where | every year they have had the Bricht-| wood caddies’ tournament, in which Voigt has aiways been the bright ticular star But that is another story Voigt was not born with a silver spoon in his mouth. It happened that soon after he went to work at the Bu- reau of Engraving and Printing, in what was known as the Liberty Loan Annex, as a typewriter repairer, the public links were opened in the near-by section known as East Potomac Park Voigt had no money to spend for membership in a_ private club, he had the golfing fever. and his days work went down to the public course. He had some ciubs which had been given him and he purchased two or three others for the cheapest possible price. With this| makeshift outfit he soon became the Star player of the public courses was regarded as an almost unbeatable Opponent, course, S| SO he Tf the old Columbia Golf Club course was his kindergarten and graded school, as far as golf is con- cerned, East Potomac Park was the university where he graduated tn the game. His first trophy, and one to which he still points with pride, was a cup offered by The Washington Post in 1923 for com- petition among public links play- ers, and in the following year he easily won the District public links champiouship, hen he joined the Bannockburn Club and, as his record shows, has marched steadily forward from victory to victory, winning all the champion- Ship -titles in this section and crown- ing all previous triumphs as medalist and semifinalist last week in the na- tional amateur golf championship at Brae Burn. His record is a most remarkable one, as the compilation in another column amply demonstrates. Since 1923 he has 32 substantial victories to his credit. In only three instances where he reached the final round has he been defeated. The scalps of all the lead- ing golfers in this section are hanging from his belt. In competitions out- Side of the District he has beaten Eugene Homans, the metropolitan champion; Eddie Held, Arthur Yates, George Dawson, Jess Sweetser, Dr. O. F. Willing and golfers of like caliber. It is true that Dawson defeated him in the recent Greenwich invitation event, but up to that time Voigt had won 63 consecutive matches and 18 consecutive tournaments. He had also won 10 qualifying medals and the handsome trophy which he won as the leading amateur in the $15,000 Miami event now holds a commanding posi- tion in the Bannockburn Club. It is a record of which any golfer might well feel proud. Although he won the District ama- teur championship in 1925 and 1926, Voigt did not get a national reputa- tion until he made a marvelous quail- fying score in 1927 in the Pinehurst oe and South amateur champion- ship. | Pitted against the par 71 of the 6,209-yard No. 3 course, he had a card of 67, 34 out and 33 in, while on the next day he had a 68 on the 72 par No. 2 course, without the help of a single deuce on any of the one-shot holes. These two cards gave him a total of 135 for the 36 holes, and only George Dun- can, Robert T. Jones and Walter Hagen ever shot a lower score. He led the field by twelve strokes and during the tournament mowed down his opponents with merciless ease. It was no wonder that William C. Fownes, jr., then president of the United States Golf Association, who played in the tournament, announced that he regarded Voigt as among the first five amateurs in the country. After that event Voigt awoke to find himself famous. What is the secret of Voigt’s phe- nomenal progress? The answer is that his golf is a combination of skill and temperament. The former is evidenced by his long, straight dyives, his work with his irons and his a®urate putting. He has learned to play like a machine He is consistently straight from the tee. He has a full swing and brings the club head inst the ball with terriffic impact. ll, compactly built, without an ounce of superfluous flesh, Ww % IGHT | Event Washington Post cup......

Alex- Smith, Lieut arles M and First Golf Ball Hits Tree And Drops in Hole Birmingham, Ala., Sept. 15 (A.P.).— The 150-yard No. 3 hole of the High- land Park course here is an easy par 3 or a hard 5 and is famous as a place where freak shots are becom- ing the rule rather than the excep- tion. Joe Spain, Birmingham amateur, was trailing in a threesome when they reached No. 3. He pulled his mashie shot over the trees bordering a street and the ball landed on a concrete up- hill driveway Taking a kick back- ward, the ball came through the boughs &: the trees and landed a few feet off the green, from where Spain, still using his mashie, clouted it into the cup for a birdie. Col. Karl Landgrebe’s hole in one on No. 3, however, still remains the out- standing freak shot of the course. With @ tremendous drive from the tee, the colonel sent his ball sailing down the fairway to the right of the green where t struck a tree trunk, caromed to the green and rolled several club lengths into the cup. he coordinates all his muscles in his driving with tremendous effect. It is as an iron player, however, that Voigt is preeminent. His style is indi- vidual and distinctive, for when he learned the game—and he is entirely self-taught—he did not have the op- portunity of observing famous experts. It is doubtful, however, whether Tom- my Armour or Macdonald Smith or any other of the great iron players, can ex- cel him in the accuracy with which he can reach the green from any dis- tance. With the pin for a target he plays a bull’s-eye shot. The flag may be 175 yards away, but none the less the ball flies like a bullet to its desti- nation. The club comes down against the ball with confidence, strength and judgment, putting a crispness into the shot that is a joy to behold. Outside of the perfection of his golfing mechanism, Voigt’s greatest asset is his ideal golfing tempera- ment.. He does not allow heat or cold, wind or calm to disturb him, and especiatly is he apparently oblivious to his opponent’s wins or his own occasional missed shots, He plays his round like a marble statue. He is concentration per- sonified. Of course, he is not invincible. He has been defeated in local tournaments. He failed to qualify at Baltusrol and Minnekahda, and he was eliminated at Braeburn by Perkins. The mishaps on the wrong side of his golfing ledger. however, are more than offset by a marvelous string of victories. Nor has he yet reached the peak of his fame. Some of these days he may win the coveted title of national amateur champion, and when this happens the romance of his career will be com- plete.

Chester Caywood, chairman; Middleton Beaman, Bruce L. Taylor, A. E. Steinem and William C., Barr. It is said to be probable that one or more members of the committee will be present during the event. Their absence from the junior championship last week, played under the auspices of the association, was greatly to be re- gretted. The recent caddy tournament at the Beaver Dam Club occasioned tonsider- able interest among the youthful bag- carriers. The event, which was under the management of Lynwood A. Farr, the caddy master, resulted in a victory for Carl Hale, whose score was 983—26— 67. Curtiss Mulligan, 110—40—70, was second .and Jack Sheriff, 93—22—71, won the third prize.

The persistent effort which is | necessary to achieve the best results was lacking in his case. He did not play in any of the local club invitation tournaments and did not participate | even in friendly competition. Devoe tion to business and abstention from golf account for his high scores at Brae Burn. It is evident that with the de- parture of Voigt for New York, the District has not at the present time any golfer who can be certain to qualify in a national amateur event. At the Indian Spring Club, where a “ringer” contest is in progress, A. -F, Williams has: turned in a remarkable score, with no figure, however, yet re- corded for the eighteenth hole. His card for the first nine totals 25, with an eagle 3 on the seventh and a birdie on all the other holes. With - tHe eighteeith hole missing he has scored 23 for the second nine. A birdie 3 on the final green would give him a best- ball record of 51, a figure which is likely to brin, home the bacon. In this connection, C. 1. Putnam, who is a member of both the Indian Spring and Columbia clubs, is inclined to look with disfavor upon the plan of running “ringer” tournaments in this section, regarding the system in vogue in the New York district as. be- ing more equitable to all the players. In the metropolitan clubs “ringers” do not count unless made on Saturdays or Sundays, when there is a large field competing. “It is easy to see,” remarked Pute- nam last week, “that a golfer who is able to play four or five times a week or even more, has a _ better. oppor- tunity to obtain ‘ringers’ than his fel- low club members, whose game is re- stricted to one round, or possibly two rounds, during the week. Every round he plays gives him an advantage which the others do not enjoy.” The last of the club invitation tournaments is staged for this week at the Bannockburn Club, and more than usual interest is being manifested in the event be- cause an effort is to be made to equalize the several sixteens by adopting a system of handicaps for qualification, This system has been talked abou for years, but the Bannockburn Club is the first to put it into actual opera- tion. It is an experiment which may or may not work out in actual prac- tice, but the club is being commended for undertaking the innovation. The course is in good shape for the tournament. One of the changes is the extension of the seventh hole to a distance of 405 yards by setting 4 new tee 40 yards back of the present — location. ° ; ORGANIZE NEW SOCCER LOOP. 4 New York, Sept. 15 (A.P.).—Growing interest in soccer in the East is re= flected in the organization of a ne professional loop with Baltimore, WasRe ms ington and New York the key team

The rate of new €onstruction has been so far in excess @f last year as to insure an excellent Volume of business for the fall months ene completion of contracts already “rt is now clear that the leading Grops will be all good—some of record proportions. Agricultural prices have @ecilined with this prospect, but abun- dant crops will make up to the farmers for. a lower price. *““Two more strong spots are the steel @rid automotive industries. The position ofthe petroleum industry also has Inipfoved. ' "Tt is rare, however, that all the signs @t@ favorable. In the present picture there are three dark spots. Loans total ‘Bubstantially more and gold reserves Jess'than a year ago. Money rates are high, and if the high rate continues the-rate of new construction will be ehecked, and with it business expan- gion, but it will be some months at before this will be felt, and mean- While the banking authorities may ease tho rate. * “But whatever depressive effect these factors may have on general business it weet hardly be felt before the end of @ year, and the fall outloox remains, as we have said, distinctly good.” a? Car Loading Report. *. Car loadings for the first week of Beptember show a very slight decrease from a year ago, according to Brad- street’s, but a much larger decline from 1026. July loadings, it will be recalled, gained 29,000 cars over a year ago, but Aigust loadings fell off 19,000 cars, so that the gain for the elapsed portion of the new crop year is very small. Class I railroads on August 31 had 201,864 surplus freight cars in good re- and immediately available for vice, the car service division of the “American Railway Association an- “mowinced yesterday. _ This was a decrease of 25,018 cars ‘compared with August 23, at which time there were 226,882 cars. |.

W. Nevils, 8S. J., assumed his duties as president of Georgetown University meveral weeks ago, his formal induc- tion into office will be postponed until probably late in October or in Novem- ber, it was explained yesterday in response to many inquiries from local alumni. It is expected that many out-of- town visitors will come here for the eeremonies, including representatives of various universities, and for that reason it was believed advisable to postpone the event until after October 1, by which time the whole university will be in operation for the new academic year. President Nevils was guest at a din- ner given at the college Wednesday night at which about 60 priests, in- cluding members of the faculty, fe- licitated him on his appointment as head of the institution.

In recent years the number of applications for admission has far ex- ceeded this maximum. The same con- ditions prevail at the medical school | where the maximum was reached early | in the summer. New Athletic Supervisor. The growth of the college in recent years may be realized by the fact that | the incoming freshman class will num. | ber 400 or more students, which is in excess of the entire college enrollment seven or eight years ago. A number of changes in courses at the medical school and foreign service school are | being arranged, announcement of which will be made prior to the open- ing dates. The Rev. John J. Murphy, professor | of English at the Hifitop for the last | two years, has been appointed faculty | supervisor of athletics to succeed the | Rev. Vincent S. McDonough, 8S. J., who resigned from that position last week | owing to press of other duties. Father | Murphy taught at Georgetown 20 years | ago, as a scholastic, and then filled the same position with respect to athletics he now occupies. A graduate of Loyola College, Baltimore, in 1903, he played | football and baseball. Additions to Faculty. With the opening of year, the returning student body will find many new faces among the George- | town faculty, as well as the absence of | others. The transfer of the Rev. Charles W. Lyons, S. J., president for the last four years, occurred during midsummer and likewise the transfer of the Rev. Robert A. Parsons, 8S. J., dean of the college. Both Father Nevils, the new president and the Rev. R. Rush Ran- kin, the new dean, are well known to | many of the students. Among the new faculty members at | Rev. | Francis E.

Another new faculty member at the college, Theodore Maynard, will teach the course in English. Mr. Maynard, who is one of the laymen of the fac- ulty, is widely known as an author and lecturer. He has just arrived in Wash- ington and will establish his residence here with his family. At the law school, the only faculty changes announced for the new term were the appointments of Arthur A. Alexander and Charles E. Roach, prac- ticing attorneys, as full time professors Their addition increases the number of full time law professors to eight. The Rev. Paul McNally, assistant to the director of the astronomical obser- vatory and Rev. Thomas D. Barry, also an assistant, were among those who have recently been transferred from the | Hilltop. Father McNally is now attach- ed to the famous Lick Obsevatory in California, while Father Barry has been | ordered to Western College, the Jesuit | house of studies near Boston.

The British and French governments have been wasting time in concocting a plan designed to place the United States in a false position in regard to limita- tion of naval armaments. The two gov- ernments reached a “compromise” in their own naval policies by conceding to each other certain advantages, which | if accepted by the United States would place this country in a position of in- | feriority to Great Britain on the seas. | her- | national | This “compromise” was widely alded as a noble sacrifice of interest on the part of Great and France, solely for the promotion of world peace. The world was asked to infer that if the United States should reject the proposal it would be selfishly blocking further progress. to- ward world disarmament. indeed!

The United States retains the right to build large cruisers and large submarines, but is willing to place a limitation upon total tonnage whenever Great Britain and Japan will agree to an equal limitation. Japan’s acceptance of the Anglo- French preposal does not change the posi- tion of the United States. Japan has already built large cruisers in excess of the ratio contemplated by the Washing- ton arms conference. So has Great Brit- ain. The fact that both of these powers now ask the United States to refrain from building an equal number of large cruisers is sufficient to make both Presi- dent Coolidge and the American people very wary of foreign “accords” reached at America’s expense. Nothing was to be expected from Great Britain in the way of an agreement based upon the equality of British‘and Ameri- can naval strength. The Geneva con- ference opened the eyes of Americans to the fact that Great Britain, having reached a place of superior cruiser strength by ignoring the spirit of the Washington conference, was determined to hold this superiority. .This caused the breakdown of the conference at Geneva. France did not participate in that con- ference, having somewhat brusquely re- plied to President Coolidge’s invitation by saying that it could not see that any- thing of value would result from the con- ference. But now France expresses en- tire willingness to enter into conference, after having patched up an accord with Great Britain which, if accepted by the United States, would give both Britain and France great naval advantages at American expense. Lord Cushendun and M. Briand have recently given forth elo- quent appeals at Geneva, picturing the accord as a noble mutual concession to world peace. Their remarks exactly suited the atmosphere of Geneva, where crafty connivings of the dominant powers are set forth as altruistic struggles for world welfare. | ; President Coolidge makes it plain that the United States will not permit itself to be overreached or placed in a false ee ae es OAS Oe Ee” i ee eS _ | riers in A fine scheme, | The accord | position. The responsibility for another breakdown in negotiations looking to- ward limitation of navies will not rest with the United States. If an attempt should be made to show that the United States is blocking negotiations by refus- ing to ‘accept the perfidious British- French accord, the atmosphere of Geneva may be suddenly cleared by a few words of truth from this country. THE HURRICANE. The country is distressed by the calam- ity that has befallen Porto Rico, where a hurricane has laid waste large stretches of country and probably brought death as well-as appalling losses. The people of that country are not in a position to deal adequately with the situation that has developed. Red Cross agents are now on the way to the island, and if they should find that help must come from the mainland, it will be forthcoming abun- dantly. Quick action will be needed if homeless and starving people are to be saved; and immediate rescue work will have to be followed by a long and costly period of reconstruction. Haiti has been stricken twice in the last few days by tremendous storms. The timid appeal sent out by President Borno does not seem to have had much effect upon the American Red Cross. If the latest hurricane has piled up further horrors in Haiti, as is feared, the Red Cross can not do less than extend its activities in that country as it expects to do in Porto Rico. fear that Santo Domingo has suffered also. There should be no national bar- the humanitarian work of the Red Cross. Haiti and Santo Domingo are entitled to the generous aid of the Ameri- can people if the hurricane has wrought havoc beyond the ability of the natives to repair. The American this crisis. There is reason to Red Cross must meet The organization is liberally | supported by the American people, who | rely upon it to put into action the great resources at its disposal. Perhaps spe- cial arrangements will be necessary in order to provide against the annual ap- in frequency and destructiveness, but probably the improved means. of com- munication and increased populations merely emphasize the force and quency of these storms. Organized preparations for dealing with their rav- ages should be made by the American Red Cross and the governments con- | cerned, so that when the need arises im- mediate relief will be at hand. LANGUAGE ORIGINS. language must look for origins in Africa. Dr. Marr, of the Russian Academy of Science, has announced that from the early stone age, when peoples of African type picturesquely dotted the European fringe of the Mediterranean, language has been brought down with the reten- tion of some of the Africoid elements and words. The Hottentot language was a highly sophisticated speech, instead of a crude and primitive one, although, per- haps, not as formidable as the agglutina- tive Tagalog of the Philippines. Hot- tentot seems likely now to charm ety- mologists away from the _ progenitor tongues of the Teuton and from Sanscrit. It may make the Scythian plains but tarrying spots for speech, rather than the homeland of modern related lan- guages. The Russian scholar holds up to view such root forms as “sur,” from which he believes came the word “sol;” “tan,” which means hurry or the hand, he sees as having given rise to the Latin word “tangere,” to touch, with the English derivatives tangent and tangible. The Basques, than whom no other race rem- nant is more obscure, also are made debtors to the Africans of the stone age. Africa’s claims for credit as the source of race and language have inspired various academic expeditions into the country. Several years ago there was published a scholarly work upon the African theory which sought to trace this influence over to America in the days long before the coming of Columbus —indeed, before America became a separate continent. It is now well estab- lished that ‘man existed in Africa when Europe was under ice. ROBOT GOES TO WORK. In a fit of exasperation brought on when a well-known public figure who had promised to open the British mode! en- gineer exhibition sent word that he would be unable to participate, an Eng. lish scientist built a mechanical man to take his place. Thus “Robot,” created by American electrical engineers, once again performed before the public in a fre- | | the cause of the crash, so that |aerial Arctic exploration can be made safer, and to draw recommendations, if | possible, stunt capacity. The public is only slightly interested in these mechanical men. It has been demonstrated that they can answer the telephone and that they can perform numerous simple operations that heretofore had required human presence, but the public is inclined to ask: “What tangible good is Robot?” The New York Edison Co. offers the answer. Tomorrow it puts into opera- tion a new electrical distributing station that ultimately will be able to supply power sufficient to light 300,000 homes. The station is housed in a structure 125 by 85 feet in which current at 13,200 volts received from the generating sta- tions will be redistributed at 3,200 volts over the feeders which supply the street mains. Within this structure is an im- pressive array of machines, switches, bus bars and dials, but the building al- ways will be deserted. Machines will stop and start, nevertheless, to the flashing of switch breakers with “Robot,” controlled by an operator in another structure three miles away, in complete charge. Ordinarily a station of this size would require the services of 12 to 18 men, to keep tab on the recording instruments, throw switches and maintain constant communication with the generating sta- tions. “Robot” replaces these men, and makes it possible for one operator, lo- cated at the center of an electrical con- trol system, to open or close any switch, place in service the various transformers and circuits and be kept constantly in- formed as to whether or not the equip- ment is functioning properly. “Robot” is going to work, in the service of the vast army of electricity users.

It is not particularly important to fix blame for the disaster that claimed so many valuable lives and brought nations into strained relations. It is important, however, to determine future detailing how Arctic rescue | parties should be organized and directed. It is now suggested that the student of Until the moment of the crash the ltalian explorers had made good prog- ress. In days they accomplished in com- parative comfort what former expedi- tions had been unable to accomplish after months of suffering and hardship. With the loss of the Italia, however, all else was obscured in feverish rescue activity, so that the scientific work of the expe- dition came to naught. The flights of the Italia served to demonstrate that the dirigible holds great promise as a machine for Arctic exploration. Sooner or later another lighter-than-air ship will be sent into the far north to cruise across the barren wastes while meteorologists, geologists and other scientists record their observa- tions. Later expeditions will need the knowledge that was gained at such great cost by the Italian expedition. It is up to the committee to catalogue such infor- mation, fairly and without prejudice. RUSSIA’S FRESH BAIT. No country in modern times has ever made such a long detour from the high- road of business and political sense as has Russia. From the time of Count Witte, master mind .of the old regime, to the present, Russia has been in the ruts and bogs of a socialistic rough road. Before his death, Lenin saw that a return to the sound road of economic law was in- evitable. Now the Soviet is coming into the world’s market and asking that the masters of enterprise. be fully assured that the policy of the country has altered | toward them, and that the field of op- portunity is open for men of business genius and investment. The world at large cares very little as to the type of government the Russian people may choose to live under, as long as they meet their obligations and do not insist upon disturbing the politica) households of their neighbors. But the world must have some guaranty that Russia is now acting in good faith before investors will risk, money in that country. The council of the people’s commissars have decided to “widen the door for for- eign capital.” It will need to be wide, the | | terials may be made free.

It remains to be seen how far Russia can be industrialized, with governmental strings holding the money of private in- dustries tied to chimerical socialistic measures. The thing that Russia needs, plus capital, is sense enough to abandon false economical premises, and honesty enough to stand faithful to contracts. After the experience of the Harriman concern in trying .to exploit Russian mines, only find itself exploited, Americans will look askance at the new Russian offerings. and tanned leather. to NITROGEN WEALTH. It may be that the prophecy of Vice President Bates, of the International Agricultural Corporation, will go the way of many other peeps into the future, but his prediction is worthy of passing atten- tion, that in the future nitrogen and not gold may be the world’s measure of value. The economists are not at all satisfied with temperamental gold as a standard of value, and one and another fantastic substitute has been proposed from time to time. But it has remained to Mr. Bates to point to nitrogen as the com- modity which may supplant gold as a measure of wealth. | Man is wavering between development of a bonanza of natural wealth and star- vation. The nitrogen prophet points to the warning of Sir William Crookes, 35 years ago, that unless science took ad- vantage of the inexhaustible supply of nitrogen in the air to supplement :the Chilean nitrates the race would face starvation. The United States has been carrying on laboratory enterprise in the fixation of nitrogen with the result that already the product is becoming available /in great quantities. The great plant at Hopewell, Va., is about to come into pro- duction. 3 Nitrogen is described as a “lazy, color- less, inert, tasteless and odorless gaseous element.” Every square mile of air over the surface of the earth carries 20,000,- 000 tons, enough to last the world for twelve years. The man of affairs and the man on the street alike are told that Now the further step has been de-- | the source of wealth dead machinery, | |,along without eating.

Science and enterprise have command of situation in respect to this vast for war defense and If socialism does not lay its hand upon enterprise, American genius will develop the element that means so much for agriculture and na- tional defense. food supply. SOFT DRINKS. The average American has an insa- tiable between-meal appetite. Between breakfast and luncheon he is able to get Between lunch- | eon and dinner, however, his appetite begins gnawing, and Mr. Average Amer- ican consumes a soda fountain drink, a bar of candy, or a sandwich. Measure- ment of this between-meal appetite is hardly possible, but measurement of the American between-meal thirst has been accomplished. The Department of Agriculture re- ports that some 11,000,000,000 bottles of soft drinks are sold in the United States each year. Soft drinks are not usually partaken of with meals, hence the 11,- 000,000,000-bottle figure may be consid- ered to represent fairly accurately the American between-meal thirst. The total includes all drinks with a fruit juice or cereal base, and into them go, it is estimated, 250,000 tons of sugar, 5,000,- 000 pounds of fruit acid, 50,000 pounds of artificial color, 1,000,000 gallons of flavor- ing extract and 400,000,000 gallons of carbonated water. Obviously the soft drink manufacturer has become an important patron of sev- eral lines of industry. The bottlemaker would be far from prosperous if the aver- age American had no taste for bottled pop, the farmer would be crying more loudly for relief, and the soft drink ven- der would be searching for another job.

WORLD OIL OUTPUT. It has-not been apparent to the auto- mobile owner that the oil industry is in the throes of overproduction. Overpro- duction, it ‘is generally held, tends to bring lew prices, but: throughout the summer the price of gasoline and oil has maintained a steady level. This may have been accomplished through the curtailment: of production in the United States, particularly in the Seminole field, . | | | | | And because he © : were alone. but to the man in the street it seems strange that foreign oil production should not have served to offset cur- tailed domestic production. The move- ; ment now afoot to draw foreign oil pro- ducers into a combination to control world output may well set the automobile operator to wondering. If prices have been maintained through domestic cur- tailment in spite of foreign production, what will happen when foreign output also is greatly curtailed? Walter C. Teagle, president of the Standard Oil Co. of New Jersey, recently journeyed to Europe, ostensibly for the purpose of shooting grouse with Sir Henri Deterding, head of the powerful Dutch Shell group of oil companies, and Sir John Cadman, head of the Anglo-Persian Oil Co., and upon his return he said that “the problem of the world’s petroleum in- dustry came in for a great deal of dis- cussion.” According to Mr. Teagie there was a unanimity of opinion among the representatives of these powerful oil in- terests that uneconomic production of crude oil the world over was progressively injurious to the entire petroleum indus- try and in the end would adversely affect the consumer. Regulation of overpro- duction, however, would require the co- operation of the large and small pro- ducers of the world. In other words, he said, the industry’s future prosperity de- pends very largely upon measures “simi- lar to those inaugurated with govern- ment cooperation in the Seminole field being voluntarily adopted by the ma- jority of producers in other parts of the world.” It can not be gainsaid that overprodue- tion of oil is just as serious to the in- dustry concerned as overproduction of cotton or corn. The hint dropped to Southern cotton growers that their sal- vation lies in curtailed production is sound when applied to petroleum pro- ducers. In the final analysis, however, so far as the consumer is concerned, it all comes back to the question whether or not gasoline prices at the present moment are fair, and whether or not world cur- tailment is to be undertaken in an at- tempt to maintain. present excessive prices.

2 @LUBs By VYLLA POE WILSON. | ee ef husein FOURTH problem in the cam- A paign to obtain the elusive wom- an vote is now before the leaders of both political parties just as they had nicely mapped out their plans for reaching the women in the parties, the independent woman voter and the woman in the home and in indu&try. The new problem has arisen with the fast-growing tendency of women groups to further certain issues by demanding from candidates from those for the Presidency to aspirants for local and State offices how they stand on the particular questions involved. The unhappy candidates give their views with the full knowledge that they will be card catalogued and put on lists and distributed to the women membership generally for use on elec- tion day. The policy does not only ob- tain with the wet and dry issue recog- nized as an outstanding problem with womankind even before the campaigns began but with many other matters as well. For instance, the National Woman's endeavor to note that that at the present time in the great Empire State of New York, which has a presidential candidate of its own, two women head the committees of the two major parties, at present at least. Miss Sarah Schuyler Butler, vice chairman of the Republican State committee, has become its head since the death of the chairman or at least until a new chairman is appointed Mrs. Caroline O'Day is acting chairman of the Democratic State committee an4 will continue so until the State con- vention in October, and who can say perhaps even after that? Child welfare workers in this coun- try are much interested in the report of the survey of child guidance in this country made by two English studenis of sociology, Dr. Letitia D. Fairchild and Miss T. M. Morton, last fall. Their reports deal in particular with the advisability of the cooperation otf school authorities with guidance clinics for children. Dr. Fairchild points out that the doctor in the American clinics gener- ally is trained to regard all behavior Party, which like the busy little bees never seems to sleep, wants to know what the candidates are going to do} about wiping out all discrimination | against women on account of sex in business, in the professions as citizens) and in the home. Its members contend that the franchise and the right to vote | only means partial freedom for women | and that women will be hampered and | not have equal opportunities for hap- piness and success in the world until certain State and national laws re- e6tricting their liberties are wiped away. | Blanket Amendment Opposed. On the other hand, another group of | women are quite as insistent in de-| manding that the candidates for whom | they will vote do not espouse the cause of the olanket amendment to the)! United States Constitution sponsored by the National Woman's Party. Then | there are groups to whom the estabh-| lishment of a department of education means more than party and still an-/| other group who will fight what they term “this attempt of paternalism in the Government” to the bitter end. These groups are quite different from | the independent woman voter. While they are unrestricted by party creeds they also will present united front on | election day and cast their ballot for | the men and women who will carry) forward the ues they believe vital for | the good of the women and men citi- zens and the Nation. Ofcourse, in these | groups there are reguiar party women. | some of them real leaders in the.party campaigns, who always will and always have voted a strict party ticket, but some the politicians realize that these few are not really indicative the action on election day of the whole It must be remembered that the tdea | that started Susan B. Anthony and her | little group of adherents to work for | equal rights was the sense of injustice | and discrimination against them they were women. One of of the women's ganizations, the General Federation Women's Clubs, owes tts existence to a/| little band of women who rebel- | lious because they were banished from the banquet room when Charles Dickens was the guest of honor before his return to England in 1868. Some | of the women asked permission merely sit in balcony or anteroom and listen to the speeches. The man- agers of the banquet were horrified at such a request and denied it. iss of of He- the | ore- ‘ {>i conservative we re TO the Start of Sorosis Club. So ti Sorosis Club, or Mothers Club was formed by this group in New York. Other clubs were organized all over the country. When the Sorosis| Club was 21 years old, in 1889, invita- tions were sent out to 97 clubs in the United States to send delegates to a meeting in Madison Square Theater, | March 20, 1889. These 61 women were | certainly pioneers in the right of| women to have opinions of their own | and no doubt left many disgruntled fathers, husbands and brothers at home who wanted to form their opinions for them. This meeting was unlike biennial conventions now held every other year by the General Federation of Women’s Clubs, with delegates from every State and city and from all the countries of the world, but it has just | as important a place in the history | of women of the Nation The 61 women represented seventeen States It was in 1892 that the Genera! Federa- tion held its first biennial convention | with nearly 300 delegates present. Even | in these early days the federation stood | for preservation of national parks and | forests, birds and flowers. One of the first projects discussed, but not acted on until later, was the necessity for a children’s bureau. When the charter was granted in| 1900, the names of the women signing | it included those who have written | their name high in the annals of women's work along many lines in this country. This bill was the last signed by President McKinley before he. left on his fateful trip to the Buffalo Ex- position.

Most people now take the woman vote as a matter of course, but we are inter- ested to know that the women who carried on most diligently for suffrage have become successful in the busi- ness and professional world or in the time-honored task of wifehood and motherhood. Many have still main- tained their interest in the welfare of women and have worked with one or the Other of the women’s suffrage or- ganizations. The campaign which has been wag- ing during the past four years espe- cially to induce the women of the Na- tion to recognize the franchise not only as a right but a duty will per- haps bring a surprising number of women to the polls on this election day. Even the most casual interest in political affairs may be turned to ac- count on election day, for women have fallen into the habit of dispatching their duties and do not rest well under the accusation that in staying away from the polls they are not doing their full duty to their children and homes or to other women. A visit to the headquarters of either the Republican or Democratic parties in Washington reveals the fact that the importance of the women in help- ing to bring in both the men and women votes is recognized. One sees as ‘many women doing executive work as men and in the Republican headquar- ters 16 of the 32 rooms are reserved entirely for women’s activities. The women who are walking shoul- der to shoulder with the men cam- paigners both nationally and locally are of particular interest to Washing- ton women. We know most of them as leaders in social or literary organiza- tion circles or as members of that great army of women iu Washington, daugh- ters and sisters and wives of men who have made and are making history. Every time a woman is appointed to lead some particular branch of activt- ties of the Republican or Democratic es there is a flurry of satisfaction ‘in the headquarters of women’s organ- izations. Almost without exception ‘f is some woman who has won her spurs in the ranks of women. Women Head State Committees.

Regular meetins of the national ex- ecutive board of the National League of American Pen Women will be re- sumed October 1 when the board will convene at the Willard Hotel. The board holds monthly sessions from October through June and special meet- ings may be held at the call of the national president. Mrs. Bonnie Busch, national president of the league, whose administration runs from April, 1928, to April, 1930, has called several special meetings this summer because of the large amount of business that had to be transacted and authorized in con- nection with the purchase of the Southworth Home. Final papers in the purchase of this property have been signed by Mrs. Busch and the na- tional recording secretary, Mrs. Daniel Chace, and the seal of the league affixed. A substantial down payment has been made, and members of the league will now bend their efforts toward paying of. the indebtedness that still remains on the property as it now stands and in raising a sum sufficient to warrant the ‘reaking of ground for the memorial clubhouse, which is to be erected on t> > site. The new building is to be a memorial to American women who have contrib- uted to the achievements of this coun- try in the creative arts, and this idea is meeting with a keenly sympathetic re- sponse from many quarters both within the organization and from those out- s‘de who are “friends of the arts.” It ils expected that this will be “club- house year” throughout the branches of the league, and that entertainments of various kinds will be given during the season in the many cities.in which the league has branches, with part of all of the proceeds contributed td the clubhouse fund. —~ The District League of American Pen Women has the honor of being the first branch to definitely set a date for the tion to the et ong who are anxious for full recognition of women in every Chapter | | man, president | of the learue. | Heilmick, | District of Columbia snowing | means ¢ Six- | lo } | bureau of the the | the ) eration of Women’ | representative i tion | cl airman | relations men | , stationed there, describing the interest under their commands | in having this up-to-date reading mat- | | president committee of the | |cisco branch of iw hich } ' ? ‘ € ‘ the Kitchen,” | HARRIS €& EWING De tn obra ED Left, Mrs. Me Ge A: [/pper- the Y.

The Pan-American Union and the Elizabeth Sprague Coolidge foundation at the Library of Congress have planned their share of musical feasts for the season. The Chamber Music Auditorium at the Library of Congress ha. already more than justified its ex- istence and has earned a definite place in the affections of the lovers of good music in this city. The only regret is that the auditorium does not accom- modate more persons. As it is now because of the limited space many eage: would-be attendants are crowd- ed out. Even the musical critics of the city are restricted to one ticket each a privation they endure cheer- fully because of the thought that it releases a ticket for some one else anxious to attend the concerts. The regular choirs of the city anda their choirmasters and organists have returned to their accustomed places in choir loft or ssall and once more the hign standard of Washington church music is being maintained. Already the choirs have begun to plan their Thanksgiving and Christmas festival music. two high points in the church musi: season.

The work in question, by Kurt At- terberg, youngest Swedish composer, of international reputation, won the grar 4 prize of $10,000 out of 500 manuscripts submitted in ten zones in the interna- tional composers’ contest organized by the Columbia Phonograph Co. in hom- age of Schubert and to encourage mod- ern musicians to return to melody. In addition to winning the amount of the grand prize, Atterberg also won the Scandinavian |. zone prize, which amounted to $1,000. | Atterberg’s symphony is inspired by a love of Schubert’s melodies, but is in no way a parody of Schubert’s style. As Schubert was nineteenth century lyri- cal, so Atterberg is twentieth century lyrical.

The Washington College of Music has given four full vocal scholarships as one of the benefits of the coopera~ tive artists concert course, Dr. H. M. Dudley, manager and registrar of the college.

Modern progress moves that fact often transcends dreams of one age bec the realities of the next, and today, as we wing our way in comparative comfort, cutting the years to uur swift flight over the unknown, the stories of hard- ships and sufferings endured by those of yesterday remote as lessons taken from ment But in the ages to come the navis tion of the Northwest passage, the at- tainment ,of both poles and the crossing of the Polar Sea by Roald Amundsen, will ever remain a monu- ment to an heroic effort--a symbol of devotion to an idea: “To seek, to strive, to find and not to yield.” Whatever its value to civilization, the effort was not in vain. Of such stuff are heroes made; the world needs them. They are the salt of youth, and out of the salt of youth comes the iron that makes for mature manhood. Amundsen would have been 56 years old last July 16 had he lived, for was born in 1872. He had attained all the major geographic prizes left to the century, but he was not a happy man. No idealist ever is. “Whatever remains to man un- known in this world of ours,’ he says in his memoirs in speaking of the “good” of polar exploration, “is by so much a burden on the spirits of all men. It remains a something that man has not yet conquered—a con- tinuing evidence of his weakness, an unmet challenge of his mastery over nature. By the same token, every mys- tery made plain, every unKnmown land explored, exalts the spirit of the whole human race, strengthens its courage and exalts its spirit permanently. The trail breaker is an indispensable ally of the spiritual values which advance and sustain civilization.” And so, ac- customed all his life to the thrill of great adventure, he suddenly found himself, at the age of 54, with nothing left to do; for he had lived to see the old method of “going exploring” be- come obsolete, and the new way wasn't his. His whole life had been one long uphill struggle in the face of terrific odds, mental as well as physical. Lack of funds had forced him to rent a bake shop and with his’ own hands prepare all the pemmican used on his South Pole expedition. On one of his Arctic voyages, he told me, he had to “turn to” as cook for his men in order to keep up the morale. But where there is a will there is a way, and Amundsen always found the way with that courage born of the right, which, through life, held him ever true to his ideals. Of such stuff was the man Roald Amundsen. He had acquired a philoso- phy of life that taught him to accept, with equanimity, whatever the day day brought forth. I can not see him other than the great leader he was— @ man inspired by the highest ideals, and responsive to all the finer and nobler things of life, beloved and ad- mired by all those with whom he came in contact. His supreme effort, while it can not be measured in terms of So fancy me hours in seem the AS Old Symphony Orchestra and other musi- cal organizations.

A. Drew, in which he charges that and others are worrying about the loss of patronage for our States’ con- stituents, is not only misleading, but for the most part untrue In answer, I feel it fense of my position of a United States senator, from a sovereign State, to say that I am not, as Mr. Drew charges, worrying over the loss of patronage for my constituents, though I am, as I think all members of Congress should be, in favor of regarding appointments of ex-service men, and removals from the public service of the United States. Since, as Mr. Drew admits, the civil service is maintained at considerable expense to the taxpavers of the States, it follows that each State is entitled to consideration in the matter of choosing employes under the civil service. The fact that 44 States are greatly in arrears, while four others and the Dis- trict of Columbia are greatly in excess of their apportionments, does not in- dicate that any such consideration has been granted, nor must those appointed from the severa] States be tormented, persecuted, discriminated against. driven to insane asylums, suicide and illegally removed from office, as charg- ed in the senatorial investigation on Senate resolution No. 154. I am not, as Mr. Drew's statement implies, in favor of the political spoils system, but I am in favor of rigid en- forcement of the civil service laws. J. THOMAS HEPLIN. VAGRANCY. By SEPTHEN B.

HE Perstan Legation has recently been installed in new quarters at 1712 New Hampshire avenue, and there is a wealth of cliarm in the main Salon of rugs, paintings and textiles. Persia, noted for its textiles, Shared with India its preeminence in this art. The present Persian minister, Mirza Davoud Kahn Meftah, is inter- ested in bringing about a renewed in- terest in the old designs. He is actively concerned with awakening interest in the old designs being used in weaving and the various forms of textile art ‘>- day. His own collection of textile art is rich in embroideries and the best @xamples of the weaver'’s and the signers On the of Damascus embroideries of eighteenth century and Persian shawls and embroideries. The tables, of which there are many. are covered with tex- tiles of intricate design It is in in- tricate design that the Persian artists excelled At times the pattern seems rather crowded to our eyes, accustomed to looser but this tntricate pattern is within the borders that it becomes an art of a high degree of perfection. Metal Objects of Art. The rugs are of various weaves also are of finest quality, although few are old It is in the silver, vases, and “cascettes” that an unusual terest reside: A large these “cascettcs’ when the minister consul general im fndia It is the custom to present ove of these silver oblong boxes, con- taining an “addresse,” toa high official when he is invited to an tmportant function They contain an invitation which is couched in a formal address of welcome rhe desigus and these silver cases is beautiful exquisite workmanship There various objects of art in cabinets; they contain treasures of silver, choice old Persia) boxes of laid ivory on wood All art Spacilly, in- was Live pottery and t work and the designs are of surpassing which loveliness It is a form of art In the Persian and Indian artists e€x- celled, and which {is rare in Europe. rhe greatest treasure, however, is a painting which {ts on lacquer.

It is in the manner of Persian miniature painters, but done in a different medium East and West Mingle. There is no perspective and the position is crowded with figures, each painted with meticulous care and each face painted with extreme exactitude ‘Ihe costumes, trappings of horses, and soldiers are a veritable mine of infor- mation of the time. Of course there are a Persian miniatures of century, which are so rare and diffi- cult to obtain. They add a touch of eld Persia to their drawing room, which is a meeting place between East and West in its furnishings, as the ture itself is largely French period, in yellow satin. There is. of course, a commingling ol antique and modern art which is stim- ulating. For instance, there are a number af water colors by the English artist Dixle, which the minister ac- quired when in London with the Persian lIecgation Art Schools’ Openugs. The art schools in the city will beg October 1. The Corcoran will have thi same faculty as last year, which In- cludes Mathilde Leisenring, Richard Merryman, S.

The- connection of art and sports Is fone of that that most 'T'} 1e the be devised. important countries cal the northern nations, as is demon- with Germany, have been greatly interested in sports have sent representative paintings. There is food for much thought be tween this connection of art and sports. Recently an Important address was given by Prof. Henry De Witt Parker, of the University of Michigan, declared that America is on the brink of a great art awakening. The machine age is in reality closely related to art. Not only are the motives of the interior decorator of up- to-date proclivities taken from the cubes, planes and squares of the machine products available, but the machine gives a greater amount of leisure, which when released is some- thing that must be taken Into ac- count. What shall we do with our leisure, now that the machine Is bringing us more? Play and Art. “Play and art are the medicine of the mind,” according to _ Schiller. These two elements are tremendously important today, when the desire is to escape from the artificialities of busi- ness and the requirements of modern life. Play and. art recreate the jaded sensibilities. Too much play has a deteriorating effect on the mind of man. But play and art give us back the freedom that civilization has taken from us, and they also restore our wholeness. Man is only whole when he plays again, says Schiller, for then he puts off his professional mask and is himself, unbending and _ so goining a freedom from artificial restraints. Prof. Parker says: “But through art, too, man becomes whole, and in a pro- founder way than through play. The harmony that.we-achieve through play is a lighter harmony. Play harmonizes by exclusion, art by inclusion. And while calling into action the whole re- sources of our personality, art enriches us as well.

This is a depiction of the reaction of an intelligent American to the static culture of present day Europe we are told in the explanation of this book by the publishers. Mr. Williams pays his respects to modern Europe today, The hero, Dr. Evans, a young Amer!- can physician, starts on his sabbatical! veer for a tour of Furcpe. He is full of the. glamour of adventures and ex- pectations of the sights and pleasures he has always associated with the Con- tinent. In the book, at least, this young American is disappointed and is out- spoken in his preference for the turbu- lent young American culture and growth to that which he finds in Europe. Beguiled by acquaintances among the American expatriates, he likes their life for a time but at last returns to America to satisfy his appetite for solid growing and vital experience. This is a book which will, without doubt. be read with interest. Of course, it will arouse contradictory impres- sions in the minds of individual read- ers. Some will rush to the defense of European culture while others may see, with the author, America as a path- finder in art and letters without the “encumbrance of a dying civilization.” ALBERT PIKE.

To Blaine knight of American politics,” who never roeched presidential place, is ascribed the credit Joo inaugurating a new era in Ameri- can foreign relations in the Western Press, “the plumed | Dr. ‘Tyler presents an adequate, dis- passionate account of this aspect of James G. Blaine’s career. As Dr. Tyler truly says, now that the generation which knew Blaine has almost entirely disappeared, bis contributions to Amer- ican statesmanship and politics may be properly evaluated. The spectacular features of Blaine’s life, especially his race for the Presi- dency, are more generally known than his effori. to establish sounder prin- ciples in our relations with other na- tions on this hemisphere. Blaine, as Secretary of State, laid some sure foun- dations in American diplomacy. It is with this feature of his life that Dr. Tyler has dealt with skill and thorough- ness. Her book will endure as a contri- bution to the history of American for- eign relations and to the biographical material on an outstanding American. THE BALLOON BUSTER. The Story of Frank Luke, of Arizona. By Norman S. Hall. «Doubleday, Doran & Co., New York.) The gay spirit o:1 young America in war is fittingly exe'uplified in this story of Frank Luke, of Arizona. who was the only fighting iiler to be awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor and yet would have been court-martialled if he had lived. Orders were anatnema to young Luke, and one day in September, 1918, he voluntarily started after a patrol of German @gvservacion balloons. He shot down three of them although pursued by eight German planes, and when se- \werely wounded flew close enough to the enemy's troops to hill six of them and wound as many more.

This little volume not only contains the poems of the 1917 edition which in- cluded the well-known names of Eliza- beth Barrett Browning, Emily Dickin- son and Christina Rosetti, but Mrs Teasdale has added 50 of what she considers the best contemporary love poems by women. With women's eco- nomic independence of the present day we find little of that pathetic despair of the Victorian Age, and little, too, of that ingratiating dependence upon the beloved. We find, instead, the fearlessness of the modern woman, her love of change and questioning atti- tude of mind. Conclusions on life seem not so easily drawn as a half century ago. We will leave to Mrs. Teasdale the pleasant task of gathering into a third edition the future poems that will strike a perfect balance and portray the modern woman as a happy blend- ing of the best in both periods.

Ss > TELEVIOION 19 SEEN CARRIED BY Winks For Broadcasting, So Far, Is Found to Require Wide Frequency Bands. NEW PRINCIPLE WANTED —— a ee By LYNNE M. LAMM. With increased activities in the tele- vision field, Government radio experts, and especially members of the Federal Radio Commission, have evidenced the greatest interest in the subject. “Television is, of course, in the ex- perimental stage,” said W. D. Terrell, chief of the radio division of the De- partment of Commerce, and one of the first radio men in the Government service. “If you refer to the opportunity one has to see a picture of the party talk- ing at the transmitting station, I can bot see that this presents anything of great interest to the public, but if you refer to the opportunity to receive by radio a reproduction of action such as the speaker including the surrounding crowds, sporting events, fires, automo- bile or train wrecks and things of that kind, I believe that this possesses great, interest to the public, perhaps not sec- ondary to our present-day radio sound transmission. “IT am hopeful that this form of tele- vision will be available to the public Within a few years and that those who administer the radio law will make provision for satisfactory reception for the public by providing ade in the ether.’’ 4 ae ion co Still an Experiment. PP Ira WH. Robinson, chairman of © Radio Commission, along with the other members of the commission, has Witnessed television experiments and he has also heard much about it dur- ing the course of the commission’s work. : “Plainly, television has not vet reached the stage of public utility,” siid Judge Robinson, discussing the problem. “Other than for experimental pur- poses,” he continued, “the broadcast- ing band can not be spared to it with- out detriment to the public. This is the testimony of the leading radio en- gineers of the country.” Commissioner O. H. Caldwell, of New York, said: “Television is today sclence’s most fascinating experiment. But the ‘point-to-point’ used seems to put definite limitations on future development.” “For along present lines,” sald Mr. Caldwell further, “either definition must be relatively crude or, if a high refinement of image is secured, frequency band necessary will be so wide—hundreds of kilocycles—that ether channels enough can not be Spared for any number of simultane- ous tclevision broadcasts. Reflecting- layer images or ‘ghosts’ offer another difficulty in radio television. Uujless, therefore, some wholly new principle is discovered, it would appear that the real television of the future will be carried on over wires, relleving that great common conductor, the ether, of this latest and most exacting of its inany burdens.” Commissioners Watching tt Commissioner Sam Pickard, of Kan- sas, says that “after withessing several! television’ demonstrations, I am in- clined to believe that nothing can forestall! the practical application of this marvelous invention within the next few years.” Harold A. LaFount, rudio sioner from Uteh, is «another of the commission who hus expressed much tnterest in. television “lr am greatly interested in tele- vision.” he said. “The different methods employed to produce the same result afford a most interesting study. “Successful experiments and cemori- stations,” continued Mr. Lefount, “prove conclusively the the methods in use at this tine. How- ever, perfection is not yet in sight. In iy opinion, it will require a few more vears of hard work, study and experl- inenting before the goal will be reached, and before it will have any material value, ‘ “In fact, Y am not yet ready to say that in its perfected state it will have much, if any, commercial value. The public alone can determine this. If it proves to be of interest to the ma- jority of radio listeners, then certainly it could be classed as being in the public interest. However, personally I see no immediate likelihood of vision having any particular mercial value. It is my opinion the interest now being manifest by the public is based on curlosity and In- terest in the development of the art, rather than upon a real need for the service.” Legal Phase Discussed, Judge B. O. Sykes, vice chairinan of he commission, has some interesting thoughts on the legel side of tele- vision, “Recently we saw in the papers,” said Judge Sykes, “where a broad- caster, on looking out of the sindow of his studio, saw a difficulty In prog- ess between two men, in which one of them was shooting at the other with a revolver. He at once stopped his reguiar program ard broadcast to his listeners the details of the diffi- culty. “With facsimile and television many new legal questions will arise,” he con- tinued. “Will the courts hold, for instance, that a check transmitted by facsimile over radio is a proper check and should be paid by the bank? “Suppose that television is so per- fected within the next few months or years that one will not only be able to heer an opera but also to see it. “A very interesting legal question will be presented as to whether a wit- ness may be permitted to testify in court about the details of a transac- tion seen by him over the radio “Suppose the broadcaster in Texas instead of seeing the shooting affray through the window, had seen if on hig radio by means of television, would he be accepted as a competent witness to testify against one of those parties in a criminal prosecution? “The courts now hold that a wit- ness can testify to a telephonic conver- sation when he can identify the voice of the other man on the telephone. Photographs may be introduced in tes- timony after the photographer has tes- titied that they are a true reproduction ef the place in question. “These facts are mentioned to show what interesting questions may be pre- ecnted to the courts through develop- ment of television, and facsimilie trans- missioned.” Public Is Cautioned. Considerable interest in television has aiso been expressed by Louls G. Cald- vell, general counsel of the commis- gion, who has studied radio for a long time. “From what radio engineers have told me,” sald Mr. Caldwell, “I believe that the public should not ve too optimistic in their expectation of practical results in television, at Jeast in the immediate future. In the present state oi the art, I am told, there are serious limitations ng in the way of the communi- tion of a clear and realistic reproduc- of spectacles corresponding to Vv pictures.

O. Sykes, vice chairman of the Fed- eral Radio Commission. After months of study of the broad- casting situation, I am convinced that the allocation now promulgated by the commission provides the foundation tor the fullest possible development of radio sérvice to all classes of listeners. Particularly do its benefits fall upon the remote millions who need radio service most, but today suffer baffling interference on nearly all of our wave lengths.—Federa] Radio Commissioner O. H, Caldwell, of the Eastern Zone. The new plan and allocation will not produce perfection, but I most sincere- ly believe: the results will be all that ls possible, considering the number of stations necessafy to accommodate, their location, the requirements of the law, and the limited number of chan- nels available.-Federal Radio Commis- stoner Harold A. Lafount, of the West- ern Zone. It is noteworthy that, while all classes of listeners benefit under the new allocation, the farmers will be the chief gainers. They will not only be able to receive more stations reliably without interference, but pvructically ail points on the radio dial will be free from the curse of heterodyne whistles. The city listeners will gain through heterodyne-free reception of their vari- ous local stations and also reception of distant stations free from interference. —Dr. J. H. Dellinger, Chief Engineer of the Federal Radio Commission. I consider the new allocation plan to embrace admirable principles and to permit an orderly arrangement of broadcast stations that will not only meet a strict interpretation of the re- quirement of equal division of facili- development in the use of the ether available to the public. “I foresee,” continued Mr. Caldwell, “that television may bring us face to facé with interesting legal questions. Since In at least some of the pro- cesses which are now being experi- mented with, a very wide band of fre- quencies, or wave lengths, is necessary, the Radio Commission will have to de- cide on the proper application of the test of public.interest, convenience and nece’sity, which is prescribed in the radio Jaw. Under this test it will have to determine whether tne public is best served by the use of such a band in transmitting one television service, or by several or even many other kinds of radio service.” ties among the five zones, but also will give to the broadcast listeners through- out the country a vast improved serv- ice.—John V. L. Hogan, Radio Consult- ing Engineer, New York City. The consénsus is that the Northwest got a raw deal. This vast agricultural section is practically without service under the new reallocation plan. Chicago with no need for na- tional channels has a virtual monopoly. Our people as well as several organiza- tions in the Northwest are all up in arms.—Stanley E. Hubbard, of St. Paul, Minn., Station KSTP. Here is a puzzle that I can not un- derstand; the announcement of the commission says: “The reallocation plan provides for full time assignments for 100-watt stations equaling in num- ber the total of all other classes of broadcasters put together.” Thereupon it explains that there will be 150 full- time positions for 100-watt stations, 125 for regional stations and 40 for 5,000- watt stations. This would make a total of 165 against 150. As a matter of fact the detailed listing shows 44 full- time positions for 5,000-watt stations. Can you account for this discrepancy, or is the Federal Radio Commission trying to deceive itself?-—-Oswald F. Schuette, Chicago, Secretary Independ- ent Broadcasters Association. Television Giving Hays Concern It has been reported in Washington that because of the rapid development in the jobormsory experiments Of broad- casting of motion picturs into the homes, that Will H. Hays, president of the Motion Picture rroducers and Dis- tributors, had become apprehensive over the situation and had asked that the Federal] Radio Commission go slow on assigning frequencies for this pur- ose. . Some confusion was caused by the further report that he was sending the “Governor of Maine” as his personal representative in the matter, observers of the commission wondering what that particular official could have to do with such @ nt be When Will Hays was subsequently ap- proached, he was silent with regard to the television phase of it, but sald: “The secretary of our association is Carl Mil- liken, who was sommes of Maine.

With the Type F Dynacone, pro- duced primarily for use with this set, the Jewelbox produces volume and quality of tone. It incorporates the acuminators which allow critical sharp- ness in tuning. The Jewelbox is contained in a metal cabinet, in gold high-light ripple-finish. It has the modern illuminated dial. In circuit, the Jewelbox has three stages of genuine neutrodyne radio frequency, detector, and two stages of audio fre- quency, the last employing two power tubes and two transformers, push-pull circuit. “Simplicity of design is the keynote of the Showbox, a new addition to the Crosley line,” according to the com- pany’s announcement. “A completely shielded, genie neutrodyne, with three stages of radio frequency ampli- fication, detector and two stages of audio, the last stage utilizing two tubes and two transformers in the famous ‘push-pull’ hook-up which produces immense volume without distortion, the Showbox utilizes full 180 volts on the plates of the output tubes, and is by all odds one of the most finely made and efficient A-C sets ever offered to the radio public. “It operates from the house current at 60 cycles or 25 to 40 cycles, A.C, Its handsome gold highlight, ripple-finish metal cabinet will be appreciated by all lovers of the artistic. j “A feature of the Showbox is its new, completely shielded gang condenser which gives extreme evenness in tun- ing.

Navy to Record Static At Sea and on Shore Five Land Stations and Two Aircraft Carriers to Get Radio Storm Detectors; May Aid Weather Forecasts. The United States Navy is to record static. An automatic static recording device similar to radio storm detectors now being inswalled at five shore sta- tions will be placed aboard the Navy aircraft carrier Lexington or Saratoga within the next six months. Stations which also will have storm detectors are Anacostia, D. C.; Lakehurst, N. J.; Coco Solo, Canal Zone; Pensacola, Fla., and Hampton Roads, Va. The foregoing decision is based on re- sult of establishment of definite rela- tionship between static and storms, weather disturbances being frequently preceded by heavy static and diffculty in radio communication. The recording of static disturbances by the device will aid in weather forecasting and be of value when vessels are without range of radio storm signals. The plan as outlined by Lieut. F. W. Reichelderfer, Bureau of Aeronautics, fo.lows: “The use of static observations to determine the existence and location of storms obviously can be successful in every case only if all storms are the source of static impulses, which can be intercepted by radio receiver and the hearing of the source determined by the radio compass. Unfortunately for the weather forecaster, observations have shown that some storms appear to be accompanied by little, if any, static disturbance. “Still others, which are accompanied by static are difficult to locate because from no definite direction. On other hand, hundreds of successful cases could be mentioned. The reasons ‘for these differences are not clearly un- derstood at present. to thunderstorms ‘crashes.’ is that known the most typical of ordinary lightning flashes, but occasionally only ‘clicks’ are heard from a very close flash, perhaps as a result of paralysis of the radio tubes. Some observers have apparently identified the type of static known as ‘grinders’ with far-distant thunder- storms. It is not known whether ‘grinders’ are produced by ordinary visible flashes when they occur with great frequency in a region far distant from the receiving station, or whether they are the result of more or less continuous invisible discharges which are supposed to occur. “*Grinders’ constitute the type of static interference most troublesome to radio communication. While most in- vestigators have found that weather conditions of one type or another are responsible for ‘grinders,’ some have advanced the theory that this type of Static is largely the result of electrical disturbances in the upper atmosphere more or less independent of weather conditions, and still others have as- cribed it to frictional effects at the boundaries of winds of different velocity and temperature. “Investigations which have been under way for several years may yield knowledge of more definite relations be- tween static and weather. These in- vestigations have already led to the es- the static from them appears to come) | the } tablishment of the well-equipped static observation stations, which will aid the location of severe storms at sea be- fore they have been reported by regu- lar vessel weather observers. In view of the number of instances already re- ported where static obstructions have been used successfully as an aid in de- termining the location of a storm, the navigator is Justified in accepting static as an added indication of the presence “The type of static generally ascribed | and position of a storm, even though it as; can Distinct ‘crashes’ seem to be| indication at the present time.” not be accepted as an infallible Laundries of Army to Dye Soldiers’ Cotton Uniforms Superintendents Will Be Instructed in’ Process Now Used at Fort Myer—Varying Shades to Be Eliminated. Army laundry superintendents will receive instruction in dyeing, in order to insure a satisfactory process of dye- | ing cotton uniforms. The War De- partment will take steps to explain the process to them and H. B. Daniels, superintendent of the laundry at Fort Myer, Va., has been authorized to in- spect quartermaster laundries on the local and Fourth Corps areas and give instruction at each in the process now in use at Fort Myer for keeping cotton uniforms dyed in a uniform color. Mr. Daniels in addition to his duties as laundry superintendent at Fort Myer is employed by the quartermas- ter general's office as a laundry tech- nician and is largely responsible for the successful method of dyeing used there. In connection with the plan of the, War Department to eliminate varying | shades of uniforms resulting from — ee master Corps, , General Depot, _come here and receive instructions in | Khaki has been directed to this process from the quartermaster general's office, and then inspect quar- termaster laundries in the Eighth Corps Area, headquarters of which are at San Antonio, Tex. Further visits of inspection and instruction by Capt. Ehle and Mr. Daniels in other corps areas will be deferred until next sum- mer and will be dependent on results accomplished on the present trip. Under existing instructions local au- thorities will determine the particular dye to be used and the extent to which uniforms will be dyed. It is not be- lieved necessary at this time to extend the trip of these Army laundry tech- nicians to those stations outside of the United States, inasmuch as native cloth is used at them and its redyeing is’not a problem. There are 35 Government laundries in this country, 2 in the Hawallan dyeing, Capt. Charles E.

LEAGUE WILL COOPERATE Plans for annual observance of Navy Day, October 27, have been started and the cooperation of the Navy Depart- ment has been pledged to Walter Bruce Howe, vice president of the Navy League, by Acting Secretary of the Navy Robinson. The unity of the Navy with every- day national life will be featured in this year’s exercises as the summary of Mr. Howe sets forth as follows: “Special emphasis has been laid, in the Navy Day celebration of the past two years, on the importance of an American merchant marine. The mer- chant marine act of 1928 gives substan- tial promise of the fulfillment of an ideal which has been prominent in the minds of thoughtful Americans since the waning of our shipping at the mid- die of the last century. 3 “This year on Navy Day we would emphasize the unity of the Navy with every interest and activity of the na- tional life. It is good for the people to stop a moment and gonsider what has caused the Nation’s prosperity and greatness. The Navy has played no small part in the progress of the United States to its present state of in- fiuence. It Is well to take thought that the Navy, properly maintained, ts an agent of stability in a troubled world It carries no threat, but it lends au- thority to America’s voice speaking for altruism, Justice and law.” Only One Admiral | Will Retire in 1929 Thomas Washington Listec il Washingt Listed to Give Up Active Service on June 6.

Laced boots will replace the leggins of enlisted men of the Cavalry Field Artillery, the War Department having authorized the boots itn place of the garrison shoe and canvas leggin. The boot will be of soft flexible tan leather, close fitting above the ankle and calf, with box” toe. There will be no buckles or straps, and the height will be such that the top of the boot will come as close to the knee as com- fortable wear will permit. Three pairs of boots per enlistment will be the allowance, To avoid mixing clothing within or- ganizations, the laced boot for the pres- ent will be authorized only for enlisted men of the Cavalry and Field Artillery, but consideration will be given later to a” authorization for the wearing of such boots by mounted enlisted men of other branches. and appearance and giving more comfort while riding, the boot will effect a saving of $10.35 per man per enlist- ment, Aircraft Defense On At Fort Humphreys —— +e ee Annual, tests of power of antiaircraft defense methods have started at Fort Humphreys, Va., under direction of the antiaircraft board of the Army and will continue for the next five weeks.

He proposes an assignment of some definite band of frequencies between 9,000 and 10,000 kilocycles, not already allocated for Army use, to the Ameri- can Radio Relay League for use in its work with the Army amatcur radio sta- tions under supervision of the War De- partment. His letter states: “The importance of the amateur op- erator rests upon the fact that the de- | mand for radio operators contemplated in plans for mobilization 1s far in ex- cess Of the numbers available in the armed forces of the country and in the commercial radio companies. In order to partially train and organize this source of operators the War Depart- ment in 1925 began bullding a network of stations known as Army amateur radio stations. The American Radio Relay League has cooperated in this | movement and has been of great assist- j;ance. Some 1,500 of the fastest and |} most reliable operators in all parts of | the United States have been enrolled. | “The success of this venture may be measured by th invaluable work done during the Vermont flood and the commendabie ability displayed by the Army amateursin support of the “Blue” army in the joint Army and Navy ma- neuvers in 1927, “It is realized that the mere assign- ment to general unrestricted amateur use of a 50-kilocycle band of frequen- cies within that contemplated by the International Radioteiegraph Confer- ence for fixed stations might serve to bring confusion to the whole 6,67o- 7,000-kilocycle fixed-station band; and this could hardly bring any practical ‘relief to the hubbub created by 25 000 amateurs trying to be heard in thelr present bands, aggregating 700 kilocy- cles for exclusive and several thousand kilocycles for joint use. “TI believe that the present Army aim- ateur organization, thus encouraged by the Radio Commission, will continue its splendid growt, and amply repay the Nation by service in time of need.” Ship Wreckers G.ven Dreadnaught Colossus The Colossus, last of the original dreadnaughts which Great Britain was permitted by the Washington treaty to retain for noncombatant purposes, has been sold to shipbreakers. It had previously been rendered unfit for war- like purposes and had been in use as a barracks at Devonport. H. M. 8S. Impregnable, old ship of- the-line of Lord Nelson's time, used as a training establishment for boys at Devonport, is to be closed. This was the last link with the old era of train- ing ships for boys,of the seaman class. The new Australian cruiser, Canberra, sister ship to the 10,000-ton Australia, which recently visited here, is to re- main with the British Atlantic fleet for three months’ training prior to its departure for Australia. Telephoto Is Solution Of Chinese Telegraphy New York, Sept. 15 (A.P.).---Photog- raphy has won a victory over chirogra- phy where telegraphy fatied—finding a way to send Chinese and Japanese by wire. Telephoto ana facsimile telegram service, made possible by contracts per- mitting the two large American tele- graph companies to use the telephone wire facilities will include the dispatch and receipt of Chinese and Japanese characters. The clattering key of the hand sender never succeeded in doing it, and, although the radio made such corm:nunication possible, never before has transmission of Oriental handwrit- ing been established on such a wide- spread commercial basis. Man Who Sank the L-55 Now Drives Paris Taxi Paris, Sept. 15 (A.P.).—The man who says he sank the British subma- rine L-55, with 43 men aboard, off Cronstadt, is driving a taxi in Paris. He calls himself “Maj. M. N. N.” in telling his story to an afternoon news- paper and made himself known only to set history straight, he says. “I was the one who caused the L-55 to be bombarded and sunk. May 29, 1919,” he explains. “I was in command of the fortress Krasnaja-Gorka at Cron- stadt.” Air Mail Pilots Fall Among Wild Tribesmen Rabat, Morocco, Sept. 15 (A.P.).— Two French aviators, forced down two months ago while carrying mail from South America, are still prisoners of wild African tribesmen. Promises, threats and money have been used in vain to gain their release. Sell Knock-Down Planes. New York (A.P.).—The airplane has reached that stage through which the motor car and motorboat passed—sale in “knock-down” form. An airplane supply company is offering for $90 to ship to any would-be aviator all the parts for a plane, except cloth, engine and wheels, ready to be erected and bolted together. The plane is guaran- teed to fly and be free from defects. Will Attend Signal Corps School.

S ELECTRICITY FOUND GHEAT AID 10 EVto Expert Points Out the Danger of Blindness and Its Preventives. LIGHTS ARE BIG FACTOR By P. K. DUNNING. Society for Electrical Development, for | the Electric League of Washington. Of all our senses, the power to see is the most precious. No more cruel fate than to live perpetually in dark- ness could be meted out to anyone— and yet the fact that so few of us are blind is frequently in spite of the way we treat our eyes, rather than because of the care we give them. If you think that the major causes of blindness are violent injuries caused by blows, missiles, explosions, sparks, flying particles; chemicals or other such agents, you are wrong. Statistics show that accidents and direct injuries account for barely 4 per cent of the recorded cases of blindness in the United States. The big cause of blindness is infec- | tion. If you get a cut or a scratch in your eye, or if you “get something into it,” a thorough washing out of the eye with boric acid solution and a band- age of absorbent cotton placed over it will usually fix everything up. Harm- ful chemicals can usually be flushed out with water if gone Blindness in the newly born can almost invariably be prevented by luted solution of silver nitrate into the | stalled by George B. Colbeck and 1. T.| the Electric | infant’s eyes as soon as it is born. In many States this precaution is compulsory, and even where if is not, all conscientious parents will see to it that their children are given this simple treatment which can save them from a lifetime of misery. If your eyes bother you, or feel queer in any way, go to an eye,specialist at once and find out what the matter is. Perhaps all you need is a pair of glasses, but there may be the begin- ning of some serious trouble which, if caught in the beginning, can be promptly checked. Total blindness is simply the ex- treme of an affliction which has many intermediate stages. One agent which is working steadily and silently to- wards the general improvement of eye conditions is electric. light. Before the introduction of electricity many of our factories, office buildings and home were very seriously under- lighted. Careful tests have shown that with the installation of electric lighting in Strain attended by improved health, shown by fewer absences on account of | sickness Efficient illumination made possible | by electricity has been estimated to increase efficiency by amounts varying from 10 to 20 per cent.

Remember that there is almost no danger of your ever getting too much light in your home, but that there is grave danger in getting too little. Now that we have electricity, which makes it possible for us to have proper and adequate illumination, let us take full advantage of it. We have only two eyes—two precious, precious eyes—and they are the only ones we shall ever have. of them! Electric Rabbits Speed Greyhounds. The old trick of lighting fires under | stubborn mules and affixing sugar loaf to a pole just ahead of the horse's nose, finds a modern counterpart in the increasingly popular sport of dog racing where decoy rabbits speeded ahead by electric trolleys lure grey- hounds to lightning speed. Saipan after at once. | THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 16. 1928. ; ' ' i | The meeting of the Electric League of Washington Thursday night was one of the most interesting and best at- _ tended for some time. Maj. Brehon B. , Somervell, District engineer. for the | Washington Army engineering district, |gave a talk that proved of great in- | terest throughout. The new Assistant | Engineer Commissioner, Maj. E. A. Da- vidson, who ts in charge of the Elec- trical Department of the city, met the members of the electrical organizati@n. At the meeting of the executive committee Monday, most of the time |was devoted to the discussion of the problems of the small electrical deal- |ers. H. R. Carroll, G. P. Mangan, R. L. _McDormand, G. E. Wagner, A. F. E. |Horn, L. L. Hayes and others took an |active part in this gathering. It was |; held in the impressively draped Cali- | fornia room, redubbed Bailiff room, of |the Madrillon, which is being used iduring the alternation of the City | Club. | | Sixty-one foreign delegates to the | World Congress on Illumination to be held at Saranac Inn, New York, Sep- | tember 22 to 28, were in Washington on September 10, and taken on a sightseeing tour by a local committee of electrical folks, headed by H. A. Brooks, commercial manager of the Potomac Electric Power Co., and ac- tive worker in the Electric League. There are twelve nations represented in the delegation to the World Con- |gress on [llumination.

In the past there have been about 50 players in these affairs. Joseph T. Kirchner, vice president of the league, is chairman of the sports committee. Theo. E. Mullican, electrical contrac- tor member of the Electric League, has recently installed the electrical work in a group of new homes in the 400 block .of Oglethorpe street. A view of the full use of electric service in these homes was given with the resultant installation of a large number of du- plex convenience outlets. Mr. Mullican is a member of the Electric League's committee on public information. R. L. McDormand, member of the executive committee of the Electric League, is installing the electrical work in the new church at Eleventh and R streets northwest. Especial attention is being given the lighting in this church. There also will be a large electrically operated organ. At the same time we heard of this church job there came the news of the relighting of the First Clyurch of Christ, Scien- tist, in Boston.

OF GREAT CONVENIENCE Recognition of the importance of the electrical convenience outlet has been given by many aggresive municipalties, end now in the new National Fire Un- derwriters’ electrical code, where it is found advantageous to officially re- quire the installation of these electrical contact points. Convenience outlets, it ig deemed by authorities, are essential not only from the view of convenience, but also from a viewpoint of safety. Insurance men have often pointed out that there have been many accidents of severe nature because of slipping in bathtubs. This type of injury can not in any way be laid to the plumbing system, nor to the type of bata, nor its lecation. Following the same line of reason- ing, the electrical installation actually can not be held responsible if an accl- dent occurs when some one falls over a cord stretched across a room to sup- ply electrical energy to a fan or a per- colator. A more serious angle taken of the matter of requiring outlets for the connection of electrical appliances and devices; lies in the fact that the usual electrical fixture, designed -and bullt does not contain in its construction, wires of sufficient capacity to carry the lighting load and the usually much greater load of one or more appliances It. is possible to overload these wires, to cause fuses to blow and even to cuuse the wires to become overheated and at times to burn out Used in Duplex Type. Che electrical convenience outlet used a duplex type mostly of attachment for any lamp, appliance or device. The duplex outlet provides two such points of at- tachment Behind the outlet there are proper capacity which feed limited circuit, to provide only for equipment which logically would connection to the outlet The full and convenlent tricity is impossible without installation of convenience With electric radio, refrigeration the numerous other and devices, to say nothing now 15 a the use of celec- an ade out- lets of the pOp- provides | portable | he ; CANDIDATES’ NAMESAKES ACCLAIMED} Herbert C.

Amateur Housekeepers Usually Need Versa- tile Furniture With Many Uses Not very many young folks can start out with a com. pletely furnished home. More often than not they must begin keeping house in a little apartment with two or three rooms and half a dozen pieces of furniture that must do service in a number of ways. Wis young couples choose these few pieces with great care, buying only good, substan- tial furniture that can be used in their larger honx when they acquire one. Dav- enport Beds of graceful line: and smartly upholstered, gateleg or two-in-one tables, Windsor chairs, daybeds and the like might be wisely se- lected at the outset. Lamps Give Rooms New Life and Interest Lamps in glowing colors will give your rooms new life and interest. There are clevei ones with parchment shade: or silk tones, fascinatingly lovely —in_ delicate _ hues. Many new designs are shown now, including the modern types. Sleep Comes Easily in the Bedroom Where Beauty and Harmony A bound One of the secrets of restful sleep is -a restful bedroom. That does not necessarily mean a large room nor an ex- pensive one. It may be the simplest, most unassuming place in the world! But its colors will be soft and sooth- ing. Harmonious color schemes go a long. way to- ward calming ruffled spirits! The furniture will be of good design, even though it may not have cost a great deal, and will be arranged fox greatest comfort and beauty. Daytime comfort will be considered, too, and a rocker, a small upholstered chair or a chaise longue provided for waking hours. Coziness and Warmth in the Fall Bedroom Soon nights will have a sharp, frosty tang to them. Time to pile more blankets on the beds and seek for means of making bedrooms cozy. Color is your first thought— warm tones that suggest crackling hearth fires and glowing lamps. In choosing colors for your bedrooms, however, remember that the room must be viewed as much in daylight as in arti- ficial light, and do not let your enthusiasm for rich hues lead you into planning a room that will be too lively and exciting for relaxation. Even though the bedroom is the one room where your own individuality has full play, its primary purpose is for sleep. Our’Department of Interior Decoration will be glad to aid you with your color schemes. i ~ THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY.

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY. Cp The Screen Now Might Pay One of [ts Oldest Obligations By NELSON B. BELL N pursuit of the pleasant duties that attach to an editorial post, [ | have just happened upon a heartening story of the manner in which Hollywood's counterfeit belligerencies are mending spirit and shattered body of a youth who experienced all of the horrors of actual combat in Flanders ten years ago. You will find it in It relates only one of many instances in which the broken other columns of today’s issue, the pictures have found a useful place for those who braved dangers and came away not wholly unscathed, and particularly concerns the making of ‘‘Lilac Time,’’ one of the cinema exhibitions of the week. the films have been to destitute Russians—many of noble birth—who have found succor in Hollywood that was not extended elsewhere. There are more than one of them in ‘‘Tempest,”’ now visible at the Columbia. And the tale of Capt. Campbell could have been made to apply to “Wings,” if Mr. Daly will pardon reference to a picture that falls outside this de- partment for at least the duration of its local booking, with more than the substitution of another name for his. Its director, Will lam Wellman, was a casualty of the air in France. And now it seems to me the movies have a still greater opportunity to heal deep wounds not inflicted by the war, but by their own encroach- ments upon territory not supposed to be a fair field for conquest, so-called legitimate stage during recent years has been hard hit motion picture, ‘“‘The road,” once the metropolis’ proved successes A similar story might have been written about the service that by the the source of fabulous revenue for , it has entirely destroyed: the foremost actors of the stage it has shamelessly tempted with offers of exorbitant emoluments and many permanently proselyted; the edifices of the tradi tional theater it has dwarfed with cathedrals of the celluloids more opulent than man had ever dreamed before as play places; the embel lishment of amusement it has carried to the height of garish extrava- gance and it has left the spoken drama gasping.

Everything apparently does, these days, Last week’s engagement of “Lights of New York,” all comes to matter sound the first completely talking picture ever made, crude as it was in many respects, nevertheless | served to dissipate many reasonable conjectures as to just what mighr be expected of so wholly conversational a picture and to create numerous others. Now that the screen has appropriated so many of the vital elements of the spoken drama, borrowed its technique and its structural what is prevent forms, branches of the theatrical art so flexible as to deplete the screen in favor of the stare much as the stage was depleted by the screen in the first phase of Shadow drama’s development? to an interchangeability of the two a> the It has been the contention of this department from the outset of the sound-picture delirium that once dialogue is made a commodity of the celatine theater, the silver sheet with its shadow figures and accompant ment of recorded voices will be placed in direct and unavoidable compe- | tition with the stage upon which the actors are flesh and blood and the | exchange of remarks real instead of cleverly simulated. mate parity existing, it be interchangeable. is obvious that the media of its creation musi Such being the case, what is to prevent the stage from utilizing the talking picture to further its own ends, just as silent drama utilized everything belonging to the stage that it deemed valuable to its purposes? I mean to Say This approxl- | that from now on talking pictures, presumably, wili | more and more approach the perfection of the spoken’ drama in all of its | auricular qualities and therefore will be more and more valuable to the | articulate theater as an aid in achieving effects that up to the present | always have been impossible of accomplishment. Take, for example, the wide range of outdoor sports that have been employed by implication to serve as the basis of drama—football, baseball, horse racing, boat races, swimming races, prize fights, all of the mammoth spectacles In | the open that are impossible of reproduction within the narrow limita- | PERSONALITY |MAKE-BELIEVE AIR BATTLES tions of even the largest theater stages. All these can be, and innumerable times have been, encompassed by the lens of the motion picture camera. And it has already been conclu- | sively demonstrated that all of their commotions, din and pandemonium | can be realistically recorded in perfect synchronization with the actfon | as it takes place by any or all of the recently improved sound devi¢es so | rapidly rendering pictorial drama vocal. - can, and no doubt will be, done. The answer js before you, * * * HE probable outcome is so plainly revealed, as a matter of fact, that it seems almost a work of supererogation to point out what | ; } } | ’ ; The author who incubates a dramatic idea that centers in one of these | -olossal outdoor sport pageants need no longer abandon it as wholly lacking In feasibility. What he may better do is coach his players along the conventional lines of the theater until the big event is reached in | the script and then turn it over to the cameramen and Vitaphone or) Movietone operators for a complete visualization of the scene and a con- | vincingly accurate recording of all the vocal reactions of the members of his cast. There is an opportunity through the perfection of the talking picture to augment spoken drama to a degree that will give it almost the variety of scene and the range of incident that the movies alone have previously enjoyed, and this without the sacrifice of a single essential of its own integrity. The possibility of a practical application of the thought here suggested opens the way to an amazingly varied field of future activity. There is ne form of stage presentation that could not at one time or another be en- hanced in scope, magnified in appeal and immeasurably beautified by the use of synchronized film. The scenes to be introduced in this man- ner during the progress of a spoken drama necessarily would be the most difficult of performance for. the actors, and here again one of the su- periorities of the cinema over the stage would submit itself to be bor- rowed by the latter. After adequate rehearsal] these scenes need be enacted but once, instead of six nights every week with matinees Wed- nesday and Saturday, and they are there forever—or at least until some- one destroys the negative! | watching “Lights of New York’ last week, by the way, it occurred to me that one defect of the talking picture manifests itself a little too assertively for entire conviction on the part.of the auditor. The scene sequences are not easily accomplished. : While there is no jar upon a spectator’s consciousness by the mor rapid shifting of locale than can possibly be effected on the stage, there is a slight disturbance of his sense of reality by the sudden cessation of voices and the beginning of new voices or sounds immediately preceding and immediately following the otherwise unnoticed lapse that occurs when one scene dissolves and the succeeding one fades in. It was in the attempted blending of scenes, too, that the Warner Brothers’ first 100 per cent talkie found one of its most serious impedi- ments to properly accelerated tempo. Conversation seemed always to cease a little too soon toward the end of one scene and to begin not quite soon enough upon the opening of the next. But, as Mr. Jesse L. Lasky insisted upon insisting last May, these are largely sources of headaches for the mechanics who are expected to overcome a majority of present imperfections in sound reproduction by purely scientific means, just as they removed the flicker from the films the industry was still in its infancy. are other headaches, though, just as good. s 7” . * | the \also was welcomed by more than The | lof | and of work of movie making plans for future and was shown sequences Dix 1,000 Indians, who were one their ceremonial conclaves “Redskin,” Gow Dillon predicted, “will undoubtedly be one of the world's finest pictures, offering as it will the authentic backcrounds of the Navajo Pueblo tribes in the full majesty thelr natural colors This venture in film making can not be commended too highly, for it seems a sincere effort to bring to the world a true picture of native American life as it was and is.” assembled for Hasty Tloneymoon.

LEADS STARS | TO JANNINGS| Stardom, the goal of every motion picture player in Hollywood! Stardom, the most jealously guarded possession of those who have climbed the steep path to filmdom’s pinnacle! Yet stars in their right have gladly | relinquished that most precious posses- sion top lay supporting roles to Emil Jannings. That, say expert observers, is the ultimate in compliments. In “The Patriot,” his last Paramount. picture, Jannings was supported by Florence Vidor and Lewis Stone, estab- lished stars. Miss Vidor and Stone temporarily relinquished their own Stardom. Furthermore they were en- thusiastic over the opportunity. In his current picture, “Sins of the Fathers,” Jannings has Ruth Chatter- ton, for years a stage star, as one of his two leading women. Miss Chatterton said that it was the opportunity to play opposite Jannings which finally in- duced her temporarily to leave the Stage for motion pictures. Barry Nor- ton, ZaSu Pitts, Matthew Betz, Jean Arthur and Jack Luden are in this picture. In “The Last Command,” Jannings had William Powell and Evelyn Brent, two of Paramount's most popular play- org. in the supporting cast. The Rus- sian Baclanova, and Fay Wray had sup- porting roles in “The Street of Sin.” Baclanova had told fellow artists at the Moscow Art Theater that some day she would play opposite Jannings in a mo- ‘ion picture. That was one of great ambitions. Phyllis Haver and Belle Bennett, both screen stars, had the feminine leads in Jannings’ first Amer- yal made picture, “The Way of All esh.”’ BE, CATTY.TO GET NOTICED The high price of cats has been giv- ing Polly Moran, Harry Gribbon and the other members of the Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer “Honeymoon” com- pany serious concern. In fact, they have discovered that the felines used in the picture are almost more expen- sive than the human actors. Ordinarily one would: expect that a few dozen cats would be the cheapest players in pictures, but such is far from the truth. The great majority of the felines take one look at the Kleig ante and go hunting for places to e. -For that reason a cat with “stage presence” is worth at leest $35 a day and possibly es much as $150 per diem, de on nature of before | ee ee ae oe ee ee ee a ee Pictures | famous Vio- | York | Holly- | crowd | automobile | } } | ' } ' She has been absent | powders 1 10NS, ‘a tremendous ' | (‘alleen COLOR JOBS FOR PEDALS able well-dress A leopard may not be its but the can change the color of het to change ec BSNOCS spots, voman the Ta) days with lightning-like rapidity The vogue for flamboyant pedal « erings has reached Hollywood boulevard veloped a number of interesting shops where a person may walk down, have the if his oy changed minutes and with LAik« ‘ Sich a stave tiiat has suddenly de rone ¢ her In ten ‘em on the to oes walk out biend mplex- are doing powder shops that sult individual « enameling parlors business these Moore in “Lilae Time” - Karle.

The. story is that of Capt. Stanley | C. Campbell, whose shattered body and | nerves have been made whole again in Hollywood. Strangely, and justly, the very war which exacted so costly a toll is providing the means for his “come- back.” For Capt. Campbell, Canadian-born University of Michigan boy who shot down ten German combat planes and eight balloons, who was decorated with the Medal Militaire by France for cap- turing a machine gun emplacement, whose wounds cost him a total of four years in hospital, makes his liv- ing by helping directors avoid tech- nical mistakes in the filming of motion pictures of the war. Capt. Campbell’s latest technical ad- visory work was made in conjunction with that of Capt. L. J. 8. Scott, a fel- low officer of the Royal Flying Corps, during the filming of “Lilac Time,” which brings the colorful R. F. C. into its own. “Lilac Time,” starring Col- leen Moore, was nearly a year in prepa- ration and filming. It comes to the Earle Theater this week. Natural pride and knowledge of the alertness of the screen public caused John Barrymore oe in “Tem | John McCormick, producer of Miss Moo.e’s pictures, ana George Fitzinau- |rice, director, to make the selection of the best available technical advice their first move in the producing of “Lilac Time.” And that explains the presence of Capt. Scott and Capt. Campbell, of the Royal Flying Corps; of Lieut. Robert du Couedic, of the Twenty-sixth Blue Devils and of the 114th French flying squadron; of Lieut. Rudolph Schad, fourteenth plane member of Richto- fen’s Flying Circus; of Lieut. Richard 'Grace, of the Lafayette Escadrille, and of a dozen other battle-baptized young | veterans. Most of these men appear on | screen in “Lilac Time,” but only in small and inconspicuous roles. Ten years ago, at the time of the story, these men were 17, or 18 or 19—reck- less, laughing youngsters, doing their desperate share in the industry of war. So the director of “Lilac Time,” George Fitzmaurice, chose boys for the roles of pilots, few of them over 2l—~ for it was cold, nerved youngsters who won for the Royal Flying ‘Corps the respect of the enemy and the admira- tion of the world.

Over 500 dresses, or rather the rem- mants of dresses, are given to charity every year by the MetroGoldwyn- Mayer wardrobe department. They are the final remains after stars, featured players, extras, and wardrobe depart- ment have finished with them, average life of a dress in a studio is less than a year. For Miss Shearer’s new starring pic- ture, fourteen changes of costumes, each unique and the very last word in chic, have been prepared. After the picture is completed, these costumes will be held complete until there is no danger of retakes being necessary. Then they will be cleaned and re- modeled and will next be seen on the shoulders of some featured or bit play- er. A few months later, the same dress, again remodeled, will be worn by some extra in a ‘‘mob” scene. Last of all, it will be used as atmosphere to dress sets where store scenes or show windows are needed. After that stage is over, the ward- robe department has found that it is cheaper to give the gowns to charity ‘than to try and sell them. As a result the Culver City churches, the Salvation Army and other institutions have profited. If they believe the dresses are worth saving they are again re- modeled. Otherwise the goods is sal- vaged and used for @haritable pur- poses.

Today this ‘‘New Era’”’ dawns, not only in Washington, but in every | ary place where there is a Keith-Albee-Orpheum theater. With the dis- | tribution of headliners and feature attractions impartially made all geo- graphical divisions are wiped out. Broadway in the East, Market street in the West, Main street everywhere, are all now on the same basis—so far as vaudeville is concerned. OLD MASTER __ HELPED HER t$ was from Caruso, that Sophie Braslau, great American contralto, re- ceived her first sympathetic under- standing and help, when she entered the Metropolitan Opera at the begin- ning of her career. Toscanini was con- ducting rehearsal and a certain prima donna was late, and the great conduc- tor.“took it out” on the new singer, so that finally she fled in tears from the room, rushed out to the Broadway lobby and buried her head in her hands. All at once, she says, she felt a firm hand on her shoulder and a soft Italian voice in her ear, whispering, “Courage.” It was Caruso. And so she came to know that courage really comes first—of all a young singer’s qualities—courage to stand up under failure, to accept criti- cism, and to benefit by it, courage to work hard day. in and day out, realizing that “genius is after all but the ca- pacity for taking infinite pains.” Sophie Braslau, one of the most be- loved of America’s singers, will be hea:d in this city this season at the Wash- ington Auditorium in joint recital with the master violinist, Efrem Zimbalist. as one of the outstanding events of the Washington Cooperative Artist Concert Course, for which season tickets may be had during the month of August for benefit of many important civic, br Places amaet welfare and recreational nonnll in the city, or at the and other mecins hotels. SUGAR BABES ON NINTH ST. One of the most highly recom- mended attractions on the Mutual Burlesque circuit is announced by the Strand Theater this week, as “Sugar Babies.” This vehicle is sponsored by Harry (“Hello Jake’) Fields, who is both pro- ducer and star. Opal Taylor is the prima donna. Other big-timers include Joan Lee, a blonde soubrette; Miss Ray Keith, an attractive red-haired in- genue; Harry Van, leading man; Jack Rosen, who makes merry as _ Fields’ comedy associate, and Margie Stevens, a young soubrette. The chorus of sixteen is reported to ‘be unusually attractive. Quite out of the ordinary are the scenes in “Sugar Babies;” beautiful effects in’ silk, satin and on canvas depict the locals of the various sequences, The famous Gypsy Trail, on the outskirts of Hungary, is shown in all its grandeur, as are noted spots in Ireland, Spain, China and Hawaii. In the last named scene, the beach at Waikiki, famed in song and story, is reproduced. Glen Echo Park. When the gates of Glen Echo Park closed for the season recently, that re- sort terminated one of the most suc- cessful seasons in its history.

Perhaps it does good rather than harm in the cases in mind because after the cotton plugs are re- moved the ear canals are washed and dried with a piece of clean absorbent cotton or the edges of a clean towel.

Driving Ease fostered By Fixing Right of Way Rule Always Takes Into Account Relative Position of Cars Approaching Intersection; Uniformity Held Necessary to Remove Confusion. By WILLIAM ULLMAN. Who has the right of way? On the answer to this question de- pends the solution to many a vexing traffic problem, for numerous traffic accidents have resulted from confusion of drivers as to who has the precedence at an intersection. Answered correctly, driving assumes at once a precision which makes its orderly movement a definite pleasure. Without such precifyon motoring ap- proaches a state of chaos that is any- thing but safe and reassuring. Were traffic to move with some- thing like clocklike accuracy it im- mediately loses many of its bother- some features, but the achievement of this goal will come only from within the ranks of motordom itself. Other- wise the well-ordered flow of the traf- fic stream is not possible. Determination of the right of way is basis to efficient regulation of street and highway traffic. Without it a cer- tain degree of hazard always is present and the movement of vehicles ever is hampered by a confused state of mind on the part of all drivers. If one must wait to see what another motorist is going to do, onemust tetaoinshrdlu going to do, one must be driving at a slow enough pace to be able to stop quickly if necessary. Attainment of the maximum speed limits on the open road or even on city streets or boule- vards then hecomes dangerous. Position of Cars, There has been one gener:! method of fixing a rule for right of way. No matter how it is phrased, it always takes into account the relative posi- tion of cars as they approach an in- tersection. But beyond this test the method divides them into several dif- ferent ways of granting precedence to cars coming from a particular direction. In some communities the absolute right of way is given to the car ap- proaching on the right, regardless of whether the second vehicle has reached the intersection first. The proponents of this rule support it with the con- tention that it eliminates all confusion, since a driver has to consider only whether he is to the right or left of approaching traffic. Those who favor a still further modification point out, however, that such a regulation has definite limitations and may in some instances lead to confusion. If the driver on the left has entered the intersection, they say, and the motorist on the right is traveling faster and yet has not entered the intersec- tion, such a rule at times would require the person on the left to slow down or stop in the intersection. And so this echool of thought favors taking into consideration the proximity of cars to the intersection. Another Determination Stated. There is another way of determining the right of way by giving it to the car which has entered the intersection first or has cleared more than half of| it first. This is designed to simplify the matter of precedence and to permit cars crossing a street to clear it first and so keep traffic moving in all direc- tions. There is the further modification made in some traffic codes that when two cars reach an intersection “at ap- proximately the same time,” the driver on the right shal] have the right of way. This is a question of “first come, first served,” and, in the opinion of its proponents, does remove some of the perplexity and weaknesses of the rule which gives the motorist on the right the absolute right of way. This is the requirement of the unli- form vehicle code drafted by the Na- tional Conference on Street and High- —_—_—_— way Safety for adoption throughout the United States. Section 19, title II, its worded as follows: “When two vehtcles approach or en- ter an intersection at approximately the same time, the driver of the vehicle on the left shall yield the right of way to) the vehicles on the right except as otherwise provided in section 20. The driver of any vehicle traveling at an unlawful speed shall forfeit any right of way which he might otherwise have thereunder.” At Private Road or Drive. Section 20, to which reference is made, gives right of way of highway traffic over that entering from a vate road or drive and provides motorists on a highway must police and fire apparatus. The latter part of section 19, cerning forfeit of right of way because of excessive speed, ' designed to re- move the tangle which otherwise would that yield to result from a car traveling unduly fast | reaching an intersection in such a way that a vehicle moving more slowly would be forced to yield, although it was there first. Abroad, where traffic for the most par. now drives to the right as in the United States, the right of way is given to the car on the right. In France this is inflexible. The same rule holds good in Germany, while it seems to be the cutom in Italy and Switzerland also. For this reason it is advisable for the foreign tourist to follow it in all con- tinental countries. In the Alpine passes postal vehicles are given precedence over others. They can drive on the left side of the road going down a mountain for obvious reasons of safety. Other cars, there- fore, must turn out to the left meeting these vehicles. Precedent for Postal Cars. The rule which gives the right of way to the car on the right even under varying conditions may seem to the motorist to have been fixed arbitrarily But it has not. Study of the situation at an intersection readily supplies the | advantage of granting precedence to traffic on the right over that approach- | ing on the left. The usefulness of the rule lies tn the fact that the driver approaching from the left sees the car from the right directly before him. If a moforist had to watch for the car on the left, he would find it necessary to turn his head. The truth of this statement may be tested by observation at an tior or by diagraming a street inter- section and placing cars at two proaches to it, o1e on the right of the -other. If the distance from the middle both | supposed | the | middle for the car on the left, is much | of the cross-roads is equal cars, the distance from the meeting place, which is for beyond shorter for the car approaching from the right. ‘or this reason the car on the right will pass the other sooner, provided, of course, both are proceed-. ing at an equal speed. Determining the r'zht of way then appears to be much less arbitrary than seem. There are few rules of the road so important, in the opinion of traffic au- torities, as the one fixing right of way. in case of accident, and determination. To be fully beneficial, however, the rule requires close observance and in- flexible enforcement by the police and the courts. Uniformity, it is pointed out, is one way to clarify the situation for the traveler, and this will come only when all States, cities and towns ob- serve the same regulation. (Copyright, 1928.) 100,000 Miles in 5 Years Driven Without. Accident Unusual Feat Accomplished by Indiana Instructor in Small Car—All Kinds of Roads Traveled and Conditions Met—Conclusions He Draws. Driving a small, inexpensive’ car 100,000 miles in five years over all sorts of roads most motorists will grant is rather an unusual feat, but doing it without accident to anyone probably will be acknowledged as a record unique enough to warrant detailing. The details are available from Harry @.

Two fools might meet at the same time and place. I would rather be slow and sure than fast and careless. I never pass @ car where I can not see a clear road ahead. Many accidents are caused by attempting to pass a car on a curve or at the approach of a hill summit. “I have learned that courtesy is vital to motor safety. The more cars I pass, the greater is my opportunity for exemplifying good manners. I recognize the fact that streets and highways belong to everybody and most lepses from the Golden Rule of court- esy are due to thoughtlessness, rather than deliberate selfishness. The act of giving more than half of the road to a car which is coming up a steep hill frequently enables the driver to make the grade without shifting gears. “The driver of a motor car is com- pelled to take many chances. He must taye these elements of luck as they friendly, or the reverse. He good judgment and fight @ continual vigilance against ruts, rocks, washouts, curves and bad road conditions.

“ THREE WAIN TYPES. ARG) IN EUROPEAN “Baby” and Family of Four Cylinders and Six Cyl- inders Prevail. SPORTS AUTOS NUMEROUS - —-_- - There are three main types of Euro- pean cars which now are attracting a major portion of buyer interest over- seas, according to Maurice Platt, an English .engineer Mr. Platt points out, fn in the latest issue of the Journal of the Society of Automotive Engineers hat these types are as follows: The “baby” four-cylinder car of 7 to 9 horsepower (Royal Automoblie Club rating); the “family” four-cylinder car of 12 to 14 horsepower, and the light six-cylinder car of 15 to 20 horsepower. The diminutive “baby” cars owe their popularity to low cost of purchase, tax and upkeep, the facility with which they can be driven and parked in towns, and to ease of maintenance, since the European car owner does a great deal of maintenance work him- self.

For Instance, it is shown steel trunks und trunk racks are enjoying their greatest sale in history, and are proving particularly popular with the long-trip motorist who formerly had to carry his luggage in the tonneau, thus restrict- ing space meant for passengers.

Acceleration is in- stant—never a gap; never a ‘flat spot.”’ Hill Climbing— you keep right on going—and you have to meet a mountain before you need a gear shift. Smoothness—No vibration at all— just clean straight power... That’s because you have eight cylinders on the job rather than six, and what a tremendous dif- ference the two extra cylinders make. And all day long—These cars are not the flashy, sensitive kind that need constant care. Just put a Mar- mon up to your usual driving speed. Leave it there all day if you like. These results are even more pro- nounced in the New Series, due to larger motor in the ‘‘68’’ and note- worthy new engineering develop- ments in both ‘68’ and ‘*78”’, Drive one of these cars in traffic. Take it over the hills. Let it run on the open road (top speed 65 to 75 in the ‘‘68’’; 75 to 80 in the ‘*78’’). Then you will see what Marmon Eight performance really is. And while the engineers have been busy on the chassis and motor, body designers have been busy in bringing new grace, new luxury into the pic- ture...Asa result, we believe there is not one of the new and nicer things you might ask for to which the Marmon salesman cannot ime mediately say, ‘‘We have it.”’ Prices—New ‘‘68’’, $1465. New **78’’, $1965. Prices f.o.b. factory. De Luxe equipment extra. Liberal time-payment plan. A triumph in individual beauty ... a refreshing and radical departure from the tiresome commonplace ... a new style, a richer style, a more alluring style than the world has ever known! THE SILVER ANNIVERSARY BUICK WITH MASTERPIECE BODIES BY FISHER SEIRING IN LINE Only one completely new motor car style in the past twenty-four months—only one truly original and beautiful development in body design—and, as the whole world real- izes, it is the Silver Anniversary Buick with Masterpiece Bodies by Fisher!

There are essential differences in the lubricant and the lubricatjon methods of the engines used in the two fields. » both based upon the variation in the manner of their operation. To understand the former, it picture of the latter. In the first place, “°work under a load much greater than does the average, or even the excep- -tional, automobile engine, save that of the race car. The average motor car operates a majority of the time on a/| throttle that is but one-quarter open.

Provision, naturally, must be made in the form of better lubrication SYS- tems and a more careful selection of the lubricant itself. To meet the for- mer need, air craft engines, as a rule, use a pressure lubrication system, as- suring a constant supply of oil to all _ vital parts, bearings, wrist pins, valve | like. | Pressure lubrication, of course, is no | it has | been adopted within the past few years | gearing, accessory units and the ~novelty. As a matter .of fact, by a miajority of motor car makers. The air craft engine builder, however, set the pace and pointed the way—just -as the air craft carburetor design in- volving the accelerating well, indicated a solution to the problem of where to get a gas for flexibility in the motor car, The accelerating well is the proud possession of many motor cars this year. It is old, as age goes in aviation. Engines Are Compared. There is a difference between the pres- sure system of the airplane and the automobile engine built, naturally, upon the difference in their operation. Whereas 30 to 40 pounds pressure is close to a maximum in the automobile power plant, it is a minimum tn the .,case of the plane engine. For instance, the Wright J5 engine requires an oil ..pressure of 50 to 75 pounds per square inch. The Curtiss D-12, powering the . Army’s fast pursuit ships, calls for a ..pressure of 100 pounds at 1,800 r. p. m. Packard specifies about 75 pounds at 1500 r. p.m. The Pratt and Whitney Wasp lubrication system provides a -normal operating pressure of 75 pounds at wide throttle, and 50 when idling. These pressures will strike the man acquainted with automobile engines as high. They are, and the simple ex- planation is that they need to be. Furthermore, the air craft engine builder minces no words in telling the user of his motor that a falling of in oil pressure requires action, at once, on the part of the pilot. The motorist may be indifferent, or willing to take achance. The pilot should not, and is not. The lubrication system of the plane engine offers another sharp variation from that of the automobile. The dry sump is almost universally employed, whereas the motor car power plant Is a wet-sump type, that is, the dil ts carried in the crankcase. Instead of following this procedure, the oil is con- tained in a special reservoir in the plane usually a tank capable of holding a minimum of five gallons. Eight quarts will fill the bile engine sump. Oil Reservoir Larger. In distance flying, of course, a larger oil reservoir is employed wherever the normal cruising range of the plane is stepped up. For instance, on his fiight to Paris, Col. Lindbergh’s plane carried 25 gallons of oil. Just as there are differences in the lubrication system, so do the operation variations between car and plane en- gines impose a necessity for using a different grade of lubricant. Apart from its greater assurance of freedom from impurities, the oil used in the aircraft power plant usually is heavier- bodied than motor car lubricants. Higher operating temperataures make this essential an. at the same time they remove one of the difficulties tra- ditionally associated with the use of @ more viscous oil—the formation of carbon. If any ofthis lubricant reaches the combustion chamber, is burned cleanly. There are many persons, apparently, who are under the impression that castor oil is the lubricant used in air- plane engines almost to the exclusion of other oils. This is quite incorrect. The European lubrication practice is castor oil, but in this country, mineral lubricants are used in almost every case. Castor oil is superior in the mat- ter of “oiliness;” that is, it possesses lubrication qualities of greater value than the mineral oil whose viscosity is comparable. It has disadvantages which are generally considered to off- set thts particular virtue, however. Oils Not Blended. A blend of castor and mineral oil might seem to be ideal, but there are difficulties which render this inadvis- it THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1928. AITO AND | LANE {III ‘Ground Work Great Asset To. Beginners in Aviation ns — ‘Flying, Like Autoing, Demands More of Operator Than | Piloting—Errors in Air Likely to Be Far More Disastrous. There are many persons now learning to fly—in this period of doing every- thing in the shortest possible time whose instruction goes no further than directions in manipulating the various controls. That is the fascinating part of flying, just as driving the car is the more interesting pastime than chang- ing a fiat tire In the dead of night on a lonely country road. There are many old and wise heads in aviation, however, who question the wisdom of ignoring ground work in learning to fly. It is true that millions of persons are driving automobiles with no more knowledge of them than {1s re- quired to make them go and stop. In aviation, it is different, many argue. Theory and practice are more definitely linked. Errors on the pilot's part are respon- ' | sible for many aerial accidents.: These errors, in many cases, are traceable to the fact that the pllot’s knowledge of his ship does not go very far beyond the controls themselves. This suggests the wisdom of learning at least the fundamentals of the theory of flight. It should be pondered by every one learning to fly today It is true, perhaps, number of persons can learn to pilot a plane in ten hours. It is equally true, however, that they can not cover a very large proportion of the knowledge that has been amassed on the subject of aviation tn a like pertod.

Another dif- ference between the two engines 1s that that of the airplane calls for a lubri- cant of a heavier body. High Speeds Not Needed In Flanes Used in Combat Maj. Mario de Bernardi, Italian filer, set a new speed record, of a plane that will travel at more than 300 miles an hour, the average person may begin to think of such a plane as a great war- time weapon. What could it not do? is about the only thing would be to run away. a ship would be in a bad way in combat with one 150 miles an hour slower but more maneuverable With its small wing area and heavy wing loading, the speed plane would “need a mile” in which to turn.

In addition to Jateral balance, required in motorcycle operation, the plane calls for that kind of balance called longitudinal, or fore and aft. But, at that, the average man certainly is able to learn to keep a plane on an even keel. able. For one, the oils do not blend at ordinary temperatures and tend to separate on cooling if forced to the higher temperatures necessary. The temperature of the oil is an item to be considered by the airplane pilot, and while this is reflected, as in the case of the automotive power plant, on the oil-pressure gauge, such a read- ing is never more than general. To enable him to know specifically what the oil temperature is, the pilot very often is given a thermometer connected to the oil outlet of the engine, which enables him to keep a close check on this important point. While the oil thermometer is not universally employed, its use is regard- ed as desirable by a majority of en- gineers. All in all, the air field seems to ap- praise the item of lubrication as of the greatest importance, which, of course, is as it should be.

Social hygiene, which develops among parents. and teachers a better under- standing of the need for wise sex edu- cution, suggesting methods of instruc- ticn, cooperation with various agencies in safeguarding public health, and en- ccuraging the teaching of social hy- &liene in the schools under proper con- citions. Physical education, which promotes this phase of education of children and | #ults and seeks to develop public opin- ion for physical education as a part of every school program. Mindful of the admonition “to su- pervise, encourage and coordinate,” especial effort has been made to en- courage the States in extending and perfecting thelr machinery for health work, and in maintaining and extend- ing the lines of communication from cut national chairmen ane egencies doing a similar work down to our local associations and individual members. The director has functioned as an all-around “handy man,” suggest- ing a mew cog here or a drop of oil there with very encoureging results. There is now a contact for this de- partment—a director or a chairman— in every branch of the national con- g7'ess. Every branch has ‘designated a di- rector or general chairman with but two exceptions, and one of these, Dela- ware, has an executive secretary acting in this capacity. Twenty-two branches have fully com- pleted their departments of health ac- cording to the national plan with a cdifector and four separate chairmen— an increase of eleven over last year, eleven branches need but one chairman tu complete their departments, and ten branches need but two chairmen. Department of Health. Mrs. J. Sanders, chairman of health, of the District of Columbia Congress of Parents and Teachers, has under her department the following committees: mental hygiene, physical hygiene and social hygiene. The State chairman will endeavor to earry out the following plans during the year: To supervise, encourage and coordl- nate the work of the committees in the known as the Burleith Playground Players, boasts 30 members, ranging in age from 5 to 15 years. No dues are required, and the club meets each Wednesday afternoon at 3:30 on the playground, or if the |'weather is inclement, at the home of Mrs. Rand, to read stories and select those which are to be dramatized. The older children, mostly high school stu- dents, assist the smaller ones with their costumes, make posters, and assist with properties, coaching and _ rehearsals. This brings out much talent from chil- dren of all ages, promotes better un- derstanding, and creates a_ spirit playground, | The expenses of the club are | by the gate receipts of the public per- 'formances, which are given at in- tervals of every two or three months. Whatever money is cleared above ex- penses is used for the benefit of the playground, for upkeep and new appa- ratus. “Mothballs and Mushrooms,” a fairy play, taken from the Child Life other | magazine, was presented al fresco as ihe playground on the evening of August 15. The attending audience was carried away to fairyland not only by the charming decorative effects obtained with boughs and branches and colored footlights, but also by the winged elves and sprites upon the stage. The children showed_remark- able talent and were a great credit to those responsible for their training. Two playlets, “Echo” and “The Lion and the Mouse,” have been produced since at the weekly club meetings, and a new farce, “Kings and Cabbages,” is now being added to the children’s re- pertoire. The latter, together with a repetition of “Mushrooms and Moth- balls,” is being planned for the next public performance of the Playgroun. Players. This will take place in October or November and Mrs. Rands says she will be delighted to have any P. T. A. workers, who are interested, attend and see the quality of work which is being done by the Burleith children.

Teacher Association in the District of Columbia. At Public Library. Magazine articles have an appeal all their own. The newness of the mate- rial, the lightness of touch, and the aptness and color of wording combine to make delightful reading. Here are listed articles outstanding people of our day have written with parents and teachers in mind: “The Bad Influence of Good Homes,” by Jesse L. Williams in Scribner's for August. “It is because we have tried to fit ourselves into the home instead of making the home fit us. It’s nothing against human nature to try to render human institutions worthy of it.” “They Put Away Their Toys,” by Halle Schaffuer, in Survey Graphic for August “What happens at 15 or 16 is that a door swings open to the outer | Youth feels life fused with art.” | by | world “Take Your Children to Europe,” Cornelia S. Parker. in Harper's for August. “When 1 sailed for Europe, | had not the slightest notion that I was escaping any difficulties in the raising of modern young people. And not until our return to this country have I been fully aware of the prob- lems I never had to face.” “The Home and the School as Cen- ters of Child Life,” by Patty Smith Hill, in Progressive Education for July- August-September “I believe that the family most educative unit is the in society when it is right. On the other hand, it is the most devastating influence in life when wrong. We must bring knowledge and devotion to this job.” Lauds Public School. Mr. Joy Elmer Morgan, manager of the Bureau of Publications of the Na- tional Congress of Parents and Teach- ers gives the following: “Let us magnify the free public school; founded in the idealism of our: pioneering forefathers on the Atlantic seaboard; nurtured on the black soil of the central plains; raised to lofty heights of purpose and achievement in the mountain and Pacific States; now recognized everywhere as the chief servant of democratic life; America's choicest gift to civilization; blood brother of the home; necessary com- panion of a realistic church; the very foundation of an efficient democratic State; a chief concern of every citt- zen; the birthright of every child; the hope of a better tomorrow. “In the faith that the destiny of the race is in education and that the real makers of history are the molders of youth, let us lift up those who work in the schools that youth may be lifted up. Let us draw the keenest minds, the noblest hearts, the finest spirits from among our young into the teach- | ers’ colleges; let us train them well ac- | | | forth send them sacred with salaries with secur- cording to their gifts and inspired with thet sion; let reward them us adequate for the good life, ity of tenure and provision for their later years. “Let us set the child in our midst as our greatest wealth and our most challenging responsibility. Let us ex- alt him above industry, above busi- ness, above politics, above all the petty and selfish things that weaken and de- stroy a people Let us know that the race moves forward through its chil- dren and, by the grace of Almighty God, setting our faces toward the morning, dedicate ourselves anew to the service and the welfare of child- hood.” Social Hygiene Reading. Two books are highly recommended for every parent-teacher member— “Parents and Sex Education.” by Ben- jamin cC. Gruenberg first and ‘hen “Adolescence,” by Maurice Bigelow. In reading these texts, one should keep in mind the following from a recent editorial on “Facts Plus Ideals:” “The teaching of/bare physical facts is in no sense an adequate guide—or guard for growing youth. A much greater and nobler message must be conveyed if the full duty to youth Is to be performed. Clean, high Ideals must be inculcated along with actual information; and the facts must be sation, interpreted in terms of their high values for broadening and enriching| llife and for the advancement of social | mis- | holesomeness ‘Such an interpretation, of itself, sug- | vests the appropriate ideals and makes | + their choice attractive without the need of preachments. The high ideals achieved through competent training and example will serve as the greatest of protective social measures.——lIowa Bulletin. School Child’s Workshop. Anything that changes school from a liv. g workshop, where interested active children investigate, discuss and formu- late conclusions, to a place where they perform assigned tasks only because they were 2xpected, or made, to do them, is a serious detriment.

Encour- | age punctuality and regular attendance, See the children are dressed simply, not permitting trifles to interfere. that schools | opportunities & neatly, modestly and suitably in ac- cordance with the weather. Insist upon children under 14 having at least ten hours’ sleep. Find out how much time should be devoted to home work, and see that it ls done. Provide a quiet place for home study, with good light and ventilation Prevent interruptions as far as pos- sible. Show an interest in the chil- dren’s school work, athletics and other activities. Visit the class room during American Education Week, and at other times, for a better understanding of conditions. Do not criticize the teachers or school at all within the children’s hearing. Al- ways hear both sides of every question and ask the teacher ahout it Instill ln the children habits ct obedience and respect for authority. Picture the school as a happy. desirable place, rather than as one children should dread Keep in mind that the schools offer unlimited to those who take ad- vantage of them, parents as well as pupils. Plan to meet other parents itn the school. It will help you understand your children better. Mothers should arouse the interest of fathers in the school activities and get their coopera- tion. If there is a parent-teacher as- | sociation in your children’s school, join it. If there is none, why not form one?

EXPLAINED BY DR. BELL Announcement was made yesterday by Dr. James A. Bell, dean of the Dis- trict of Columbia “ollege of the Y. M C. A., that arrangements had been completed for a real estate course to be conducted this fall. In discussing the course Dr. Bell said “modern progress in the growth and extension of cities as well as the tre- mendous rural development since the advent of the automobile have widened the sphere of real estate activity. For trained men and women with vision and courage there are unlimited oppor- tunities and possibilities to reach suc- cess in the field of real estate. The real estate business carries with it a serious résponsibility to those who as- sume the obligations of trust involved in real estate practice. Its various branches are being highly specialized and developed. The trained expert in real estate is today rendering a pro- — fessional service rather than being en- gaged in a commercial pursuit. “This course can not be considered sufficient to equip one to successfully establish a real estate business, but is designed rather as an introduction to further study and research. It does, however, offer an opportunity to those already engaged in some branch of real estate work to get a broader and more comprehensive view of the different departments of a modern real estate office and to obtain general informa- tion on subjects vitally connected with real estate practice. To those contem- plating entering the real estate field this course will give a practical out- line of modern practice and will be found useful in every-day experience. “Each topic will be handled by prominent local men, who will give practical illustrations of the actual de- tailed workings of the different de- partments of a real estate office and an elemental explanation of allied subjects. Combined with the lectures will be a series of informal quizzes t> enlarge on each subject discussed This offers individual students the op- portunity to participate in forum dis- cussions of practical subjects.” The course, which has the indorse- ment of the Washington Real Estate Board, will be under the guidance of John A. Petty, executive secretary of the Real Estate Board, who as in- structor will outline the topics and conduct the quizzes. His training and practical experience of many years in the local real estate field, and the broader knowledge gained through his affiliation with the Washington Real Estate Board and the National Associ- ation of Real Estate Boards insure a very helpful and practical method. of conducting the course. > ” OF oer’ ee a place in living 1 or ow closets.

To remove to the far outskirts of the city brings new difficulties and problems. Planning landscaping and con- tinuous proper care are no inconsiderable items.

Fifteen members of the board are now working on plans for their individual booths. These booths will illustrate home ownership in a distinctive and attractive manner. They will demonstrate the advantages of home ownership, typify the evolution of the home and show the growth of home ownership in the National Capt- tal and its environs All realtors’ exhibits will be displayed on a separate floor together with those sional phases of home ownership rep- resented by these exhibitors. In its entirety it will be a laboratory of in- formation where the publie may re- ceive advice on home problems. Approximately 50 per cent of the available space has already been allo- cated and it is expected that the com- plete floor will be assigned before the end of September at which time the subcommittee in charge of arrange- ments for this phase of the exposition will begin its work toward assembling all of the exhibits as a unit. The various subjects portrayed in the ex- hibits will be harmonized to give a complete picture of every step required in the negotiation, purchase and own- ership of a home.

WILL AVOID OVERLOADING Installment of the advisory system to assist students in the organization of thein courses marked the opening, Sat- urday, of registration for the 108th year of the George Washington University. Low scholarship resulting from over- loading and the aimless selection of courses will be avoided through the closer faculty supervision exercised under the advisory system. The new regulations for registration require that each student consult his dean with regard to his program before it can be approved. Personal interviews with the dean of men or the dean of women are required of all new students before they are accepted “or entrance. Registration will continue through Wednesday, between the hours of 9:30 and 7 o'clock. Students registering after Wednesday must pay a late registration fee, excepting graduate students who may register through Saturday. Classes will start Thursday, Registration for all schools of the university except the Law School and the School of Medicine takes place in| Corcoran Hall. Law students register in Stockton Hall, the law school building, | and medical students at the office of the School of Medicine, Registration for the first year class of the School of Medicine was closed early in July, 90 freshmen being selected for entrance from among the 800 appli- | cants.

Final details of general class sched- ules have been arranged for the coming school term. Approximately twenty new courses will be given in the School of Econom- ics and Government, and in the selec- tion of the new subjects the university has made available a wide choice in banking, finance, economics, English, government and political science, his- tory, French, and social and other sciences. With the view of appealing to those students who desire because of com- mercial or other reasons a fundamental knowledge of civil’ law the university is offering this fall a systematic sched- ule of studies in this field. These courses are designed to afford the stu- dent an equipment similar of the com- mon law course offered by the univer- sity. There is every indication that the student body will take an unusually interest in debating this year. Three organizations are formed each year, the Miller Debating Society, the Alvey De- bating Society, and the John Marshall Club. The Alvey and | under the direction of faculty mem- bers and debates are regularly held among the societies.

10 | WORK’S BRIDGE atory Doubles which was started last Sunday, we will today look at another side of the picture. C story Dow the subject of Inform- South (Dealer) would bid one Club. A thoughtless West, with “two-suiter” bidding in mind, wouia overcall with one Spade—the higher-value@ of the two five-card Majors—and would ob- tain the contract at that declaration. It will be seen at a glance he would have to lose two Clubs and two Spades; but if instead of bidding the Spade, West should double the Club, East would answer by bidding a Heart; and it will be noted that at Hearts, East and West would make game. Of course the double of one Club would suggest to East that West held Spades, Hearts and Diamonds; but if East should an- awer with Diamonds, as might be ex- pected, West then would bid Hearts and show that his double was of the two- suit variety, and that all the doubler desired to know was in which of the two Major suits East was the longer. By doubling on the first round and bidding Hearts (not Spades) on the second, he would give East the oppor- tunity to pass if he preferred Hearts; to bid Spades if he preferred Spades. In either case East could indicate his selection without increasing the con- tract. Another tyve of hand, a bit out of the ordinary, in which an opportunity for doubling occurs, is the following: South (Dealer) would open by bid- ding one Club. West would not fear the Clubs if he were playing No Trump, but with the worthless singleton in Diamonds would be afraid of that sult. Bidding No Trump with a worthless singleton is one of the rash acts which should be avoided at the Bridge table. Of course West has ample strength to bid his four-card Spade suit; but with four good Hearts also. West is anxious to play the Major suit of which his partner has four, if his partner has four of either Major. If Diamonds be East’s lomg suit, then West wants to play at No Trump: and his partner’s holding can be best ascertained by a double. This double is generally known as the “camouflage.” West is prepared, if East bids a Major, to let it stand; if East bids a Diamond, to bid a No Trump. In the above hand East would answer with a Heart, and the result of playing the hand at Hearts rather than at No Trump is self-evident. If West bids No Trump, North would keep quiet, run his six Diamonds and then make South’s two Clubs, defeating the contract by two; whereas at Hearts game is easy for East and West. One more type of somewhat unusual double: 443 3 sites With the above South hand, only the most confirmed No Trump hound would bid a No Trump. It will be noted that at No Trump, one-odd would be all that North and South would make because West would pass and cash five Clubs immediately, after which East’s Heart Ace would make. If’ North rescued the No Trump by bid- ding Diamonds, all would be well; but there are many who do not take out with a Minor unless the rescuing hand contains a suit of more than five cards or a singleton or blank suit. But if South makes the unquestionably sound declaration of one Spade, West would bid two Clubs, and North and East would pass. The tempting declaration for the thoughtless South now would be two Hearts, but a double would be much better. The Heart bid would give North a choice between Spades and Hearts, but the double would enable North to select from Spades, Hearts and Dia- monds. It wil? be noted how much more satisfactorily the hand would work at Diamonds (which would be the declaration that North would se- lect if given the triple choice) than at Hearts—the declaration North would have to choose if forced to pick one of the Majors. More about informatory doubles next Sunday. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of each week for about six weeks, Mr. Work will present a most interesting and instructive series of Auction Bridge queries. Start a contest in your family and with your friends on this special series. You will be rewarded with a greatly in- creasing knowledge of Auction Bridge and increased enjoyment from this great game.

League Studies Plan For Changing Calendar Puch, France, Sept. 15 (A.P.).—The League of Nations is studying the re- form of the antiquated Gregorian calen- dar and Ambroise Fournier, of Puch, claims to have solved the leap-year problem for the calendar makers. A holiday known as the “Woman's Holi- day” would dispose of the troublesome extra day. Fournier’s calendar, which he has submitted to the league, comprises a year of twelve months, each of 30 days, and weeks of seven days. The year would begin on what is now the 20th: Y. W.C.A. | Miss Jeannette McCarthy, accom- panied by Miss Kathryn McCaffrey, will assist in the twilight music hour this afternoon at 5 o’clock on the roof of the Y. W. C. A. at Seventeenth and K streets. Miss Gladys Mills and Miss Edith Dawson will be hostesses. Miss Dawson will direct the group singing. The usual vesper service at Vacation Lodge will be held this evening. Miss THE WASHINGTON Hettie P. Anderson, the general secre- tary, will give a short talk. The K. E. Y. Club will have a supper on Wednesday at 6:30 o’clock. A club meeting and bowling will follow. The first meeting in the fall schedule for the chapters will be held by the Princeton Chapter Tuesday at the Elizabeth Somers residence, 1104 H street. A luncheon will be served at 1 o'clock. Mrs. A. J. Dinger will be the hostess and she will be assisted by Mrs. E, L. Bugbee, Mrs. F. R. Davis, Mrs. H. M. Drumm, Mrs. A, H. Redfield and Mrs. Cc. B. Satler. Mrs. Irving Ketchum, executive secretary of the education de- partment, will talk on the educational opportunities of the association. The fal] term in the health education department will start the week of Oc- tober 8. Registrations are now open. There will be classes in swimming, cor- rective gymnastics, fundamental gym- nastics, tennis, badminton and clog, natural and social dancing. The pageant, Closing bancuet and ceremonial participated in by the Kah- ler campers and their visitors on last Friday was a happy event. The pag- eant, written by Miss Mary Fox, was of “Maryland Free State in Her Colonial Period,” and included the prologue, six episodes and the epilogue of the songs of liberty which Maryland has contrib- uted to the United States. Following the pageant 135 banqueters POST: SU NDAY,. SEPTEMBER sat down at the tables arranged in tri- | angular form with yellow and lavender colors—the motif coming from the bou- quets of thistle and Spanish needles. Talks were given by the Misses Helen Findlay, Amy Veerhoff and Betty Alex- ander. All guests participated in the ceremonial in the large recreation room, where at the close large candles were lighted at the hearth fire. Plans for the setting-up conference of volunteer and staff workers of the Y. W. C. A. are being perfected. There will be the three sessions: Wednesday afternoon, September 26 from 2 to 4 o'clock, preceded by a luncheon at 1 o'clock; Wednesday evening from 8 to 10 o’clock, and Thursday morning from 16. 1928. 10 to 12 o'clock, followed by a lunch- eon and a closing program.

HERE are only a few of ue left.”’ Thus Joe Crowley, former president of the Bartenders Union, sums up the situation. There are—officially—no bar- tenders in America. There are no bars. All that remain are memories. us Twenty-eight years ago, back at the dawn of the new century, Washington marshaled a regiment of 3,000 bartenders. Fighteen hundred strong belonged to the union—the union that has now gone out of business, its members scattered to Canada and Cwha, the remaining cohorts caught in the mesh of other work. In Washington City, of the old-time bar- tenders, there are, as Mr. Crowley says, “only a few of us left.”” On the day of this inter- view he was celebrating his sixty-third birth- day. In his time Mr. spent 32 years back of the polished mahogany—the long, bar with the brass rail running down the length of the room, whereon many feet tarried in comfortable repose, the while elbows bent akimbo and ears tingled with tales regaled by raconteurs of reputation; for every man then was a master story teller and every other man a gifted listener. Those days are gone forever. Crowley long Joe Crowley started in the business over at. Galligher’s, in Georgetown, a place that was afterward run by the celebrated Dick Morgan. Six years in harness there and the young Crowley knew a thing or two about life and manners; for he heard many things, and his keen eyes were those of the observer. So he moved on downtown to take his post behind the bar at Swing & Clark’s, the place that stood for years on the corner of Seventh and G streets northwest and known from one end of the town to the other as the Patent Office Restaurant. For fourtéen years, or as long as the cele- brated old cavalry soldier courted Nancy in the song ‘I’m Bound to Cross That Old Miss-our-{,""’ Joe Crowley attended to the wants of his fellows. He met all manner of men, and among them the celebrated patent attorneys of the Nation, who, with their clients, came in to bid the time of day and to go back, refreshed, to the problems that beset the patent examiners In the old Grecian temple across the way. This was when patents .were patents; when Thomas Edison was sending down so many a day, when the electric light and the telephone were coming into existence, or getting footholds, when the gasoline buggy was preparing to chase eld Dobbin and the shay off the roads. Many a patent was perfected in the Patent Office Restaurant and, although Mr. Crowley does not make this statement, he believes sort of sacrilegous to drag forth the bones; but Mr. Crowley, in all the youthfulness of his 63 years—they sit upon his head like so many golden, glorious legends, each packed with romantic tales— does not hesitate, how- ever, to talk about the old times; and of his fellows who worked with him in the Bour- bonic provinces. ‘They are mostly all gone,” he says, with.just the trace of a sob in his voice. ‘‘There are only a few of us left, but- well, the survivors are mighty wonderful old fellows.”’ There is the king pin of them all, for in- stance, old Henry Thomas, who held forth in the days when Driver’s was Driver’s, and later went to the Willard Hotel where he met and mingled with the mighty men from all parts of the country. Call him old only when the distance Is safe between the caller and the callee; for Henry Thomas, while he might have quite a time of it getting around on his well-worn feet, is chipper and spry as the best of them: and he still stands behind a spread of mahogany, out ttlere In the Chevy Chase club, where he mixes lemonades and fancy soft drinks for the ladies and gen- tlemen of the countryside. Incidentally, Henry Thomas has book. It is called the “Life and Letters of Henry Thomas,’’ and it was written a published under Wheeler, that literary the auspices of Charlie man about-town who recognizes talent when he sees it and who knows how to reward EE GR +> Sos By JOHN J.

And shooting syrup instead of sugar in a mixed drink is akin to desecration.” Now if you happened to ask Mr. Crowley about Shoomaker’s you'd get a different an- swer; for that, according to him, and to all who ever went there, was the pride and joy of the city. “Old Cobweb they called it,” he reminisces, ‘‘and Hall was a good name for it. The cobwebs, like the silence in Kipling’s verse, ‘Hung that ’eavy you were ‘alf afraid to speak.’ ”’ Once, a bartender, newly appointed, com- mitted the unforgivable crime of wiping a cobweb from a bottle. Forthwith, he was fired, according to Mr. Crowley. But this of- fense was not often committed, for the bar- tenders in Shoomaker’s knew their busimess and they held true to the traditions of the place. Most of these fellows are dead and gone now, the most celebrated of the lot be- ing the late George Williamson, He, the in- ventor of the Gin Rickey. “Ves,” said Mr. Crowley, “it’s mighty hard to recall the old fellows—where they are, and what they’re doing. I'd have to put on my thinking cap for a long while, to refresh my memory. then I don’t believe I could tell just where they are, all of them.” An attempt was made to joggle Mr. Crow- ley’s memory. “Do you remember,” he was asked, “a fellow by the name of Tommy Tucker?” “Tommy Tucker!” Mr let the name roll off his tongue. It was as if some one had died and left him a million dollars. “Indeed I do remem- Good old Tommy Tuck- that Tommy Tucker and Mr. Crowley work together now in the Engraving and Printing.

When the Riggs House started up, where Keith’s Theater is now housed in the Albee Building, it was Joe Crowley who opened its portals. He had gone there with his old friend, Ranny Warwick—and there, on that corner, across from the Treasury, gathered, im the early afternoon hours and,-tater, in the .cool of the evening, the great and near-great of the Nation. . It probably isn’t just right to be hitting the high spots in this fashion: For one thing, well, the Nation has gone dry—or what pre- tends to be dry—and the young folks shouldn't know anything about those dear, — days beyond recall. Somehow, ft seems ~~ it when he finds it. Mr. Wheeler, so rumor has it, was so impressed with the experiences of Mr. Thomas, a man who had stood face to face with the celebrities of the Nation, that he prevailed upon the old-timer to jot down some of these reminiscent sketches. There they are, in book-form, and the first edition exhausted. The book was given out at a ban- quet not'so many years ago, a banquet at the Chevy Chase Club, and Henry Thomas was called upon to autograph copy after copy; much in the fashion that George Bernard Shaw is asked, time upon time, to affix his signature to the fly-leaf of his books. “Do you remember Henry Thomas?” Mr. Crowley was asked. “Do I remember Henry Thomas?” Mr. Crowley paused, to let the name sink in, the sound of it music to his ears. “Do I remember Henry Thomas!”’ The idea seemed preposperous. “Why, of course, I remember Henry Thomas. He was a member of the old Bar- tenders Union. I remember him from away back.”’ It was news to Joe Crowley that Henry Thomas was living. He thought the old fel- low had passed on to his.reward. Seems as if the coming in of the Volstead act had worked havoc in the friendships of years ago. At the time that Henry Thomas was the Faéto-Factotem, if that is the title, down at the Willard, Mr. Crowley had left the ad- jacent territory for a fling at the Bartenders Club, a gathering place that was situated — then in the 900 block of E street. Joe Crow- ley was. there, in the capacity of manager, from 1902 to 1905. Then he came back on Thirteen street, where Frank Hiss had started operations on the old site once oc- cupied by the Ranny Warwick emporium, It was from Frank Hiss’ place that he went up to the Treasury corner, and later sallied down again to’ E street, in Jim Duffey’s estab- lishment; where now is an humble barber shop. “Those days when Henry Thomas and I flourished were the great old days,’ confided Mr. Crowley. ‘I imagine there are just a few of us who can speak of them without tears flooding the eyes; for, after all, life is like that—-there must be change, or it isn’t life.’’ Sawdust Hall is the name that hung itself onto Hancock’s, and this same Joe Crowley is about the only man who has, in this day and generation, come across with an adverse comment on that old establishment, a place known in every State of the Union, and across the seas. It stood at 1234 Pennsyl- vania avenue, It still stands there, the building, at least, but a plumbing plant has taken over the premises, and these will not last long either; for the Government is about to step in and tear down all those houses on the south side of the Avenue. “Oh, of course,” comments Mr. Crowley, ‘“‘Hancock’s was a great old place—but its reputation was won on what almost amounts to thin air, They said that there you could Brian McDonald Was another name to con- jure with in the olden times, Brian being a man who had served the gentry in the good old days; but, for some reason or other, Brian has passed out of the picture, and no one seems to know whither he has gone; whether he is dead or alive; whether he is in Washington, or has taken to the wilds of other countries. Most of the boys who wore the apron and the sleeve protectors were offered better chances abroad. Some of them took to their heels and left this country, going to Cuba and to Canada. 3 “I was offered a job in Cuba at $75 a week,” Mr. Crowley confided, “but at my age a man can’t be rambling all over the + VA Blobe’ So I remained at the old post—here ~ in Washington, to watch the wheels of sore, me t

Perhaps lone litiess is somet mes the that prompts them. Then, too, the glamour of the stave, the romantic love plot in which the prima donna plays her part and the moving beauty of the music may all have something to do with awakening emotions. Again, there is more or less of the ideal in.all men’s hearts. They see a woman be- fore them moving in another world than the daily one of dull routine, singing melodies that touch the gentler side of their natures Be that as it may, the greater part of flocks and flocks of letters which came to me per sonally have breathed of love.

If you have ever traveled to Norway by way of Sassenitch, you have crossed the corner of Sweden which I call home. My gray stone castle rises on a rocky promontory overlooking the sea, sometimes dark and gloomy, sometimes reflecting sunshine in a million waves. “From my windows on the land side 1 view a great sweep of landscape studded with rocks. Patches of wild flowers bloom there all summer long, and in the autumn a great carpet of purple heather, fine as any seen in Scotland, is flung across the floor of my world.

I knew that he was dead Considering the attachment he so frankly expressed for me the iuterest he cherished in my art, I should have been heartless had { not felt sad and recalled with genuine feel ing the love he had shown for me. All men, perhaps, have at one time or an- other had tender feelings aroused in them by women whom they saw on the stage. My reason for being assured of this is that to me, as a single instance, letters came from men in every calling. Here is one, written in genuine manliness by a truck driver: “I saw you last night for the first time You sang in ‘Der Freischutz.’ I said to my- self, there is girl who would make me happy in the home, and she would be happier there, too, than on the stage.

He shows that headaches are as old as the world. The first record of which we have any knowledge is where it is mentioned sev- eral times in the writings of Xenophon. The Greek word for headaches was skylytes, meaning panes in the upper story. - He goes on to show that headache is not a ' disease itself, but nature’s method of telling _ that something is wrong elsewhere. The morning headache of the drunkard _ may indicate that as he sobers up he will ind his umbrella in the bed and discover % oS he has been standing in the sink all See The headaches which are common to I 6d women show they are suffering a in full of dishes, while farmers ches oftimes point to a chronic eon- pi nawe as + flag of the ereheane. Ena SN is > " oe : ag He shows how the-true cause of the ma- jority of headaches is due to tight shoes. These force extra blood into the circulation, inflating the veins and arteries far beyond the point recommended by manufacturers. The theory of cheese preventing head- aches was advanced by Swiss scientists. During experiments with mice, they ‘noted the mice never had headaches,.and coincidentally consumed considerable quantities of cheese. This seemed quite logical, and has become known as the Swiss cheese theory. Dr. Rockwell, however, disproves it all by showing that absence of headache in mice is due to the lack of eye strain, inasmuch as they never read at night with an artificial light. In conclusion, he warns his ak taie who are troubled with headaches, against the use of all drugs, with the exception of hexomy- thosalanurol, which is difficult to secure and impossible to pronounce.

Trailing Elephant Into Past Difficult Trailing the elephant into the remote reaches of antiquity is not so hazardous as hunting the living variety, but it is much more difficult to bag the desired game. The prize of the hunt for fossils of extinct elephants, the mammoths and mastodons, is a complete set of bones. Fossi] remains of these massive creatures are numerous on the American continent, but complete skeletons are seldom recovered, and even skulls are rare, The great size of the animals is largely responsible for this condition, in the opinion of Dr. J. W. Gidley, of the Smithsonian In- stitution, assistant curator of vertebrate pale ontology of the National Museum. “It must have been only under the most favorable conditions of accumulating deposits that entire carcases of such very large crea- tures would be covered and preserved,” he explains. ‘“‘In consequence, most of the finds reported represent only a few scattered bones and more often qa jaw or tooth, for teeth are less easily destroyed by the elements than other parts of the skeleton. “Another contributing cause for scarcity of good material of these animals is due to the fact that many of the best preserved skeletons have been discovered in swamp- dredging, or other excavation work, by mer who have not had the technical training and special knowledge required to collect such material, and in consequence most of these have been greatly damaged or entirely de stroyed for scientific purposes.” Mammoths and mastodons were native in North America throughout the entire pleis- tocene age, the geological period charac- terized by several epochs of widespread gla- ciation, which ended about 25,000 years ago. “During the interglacial periods and con- tinuing even after the last great ice sheet had disappeared or at least retreated far to the north,” Dr, Gidley relates, ‘“‘these great beasts roamed widely over most of the United States, traveled far southward into Mexico and Central America, and extended their range northwestward into Alaska.”’ Three good skeletons of mastodons have been obtained by the Smithsonian, including one of an exceptionally rare species, but no mammoth skeleton suitable for mounting has been found.

The few who were on the boat were quickly rescued, but the boat sank, and, because of rough weather, was not raised for three days. The accident wrecked the ship, but. it was towed to port and completely rebuilt, 30 that the announcement this year is headed, “All New From Water Line to the Roof.’’ The rebuilding cost $30,000. An odd thing about the boat is that it was designed by one who was more fa- miliar with theaters than with boats. He placed the kitchen and dining room in the after part under the stage. He carefully planned the height of the dining room and kitchen to accommodate amply the tallest member of the cast. But in planning he neglected to take into account the heavy layers of timber needed in the bottom of a barge. But the builders, being boat men, put the timbers in. The result is a large dining room big enough to care for the 26 people who aré carried aboard, but not over 4 feet from floor to ceiling. Dinner, thus, is an odd sight, every one bending way over and virtualy crawling in the little door that goes from the orchestra pit to the dining room and then walking so that their arms hang below their knees until they reach their places at the table. “How about the cook, who has to work in the kitchen all day?’ Mr. Hunter was asked. “That's easy,’ replied Mr. Hunter. “We get the cook to fit the kitchen.” Mr. Hunter has very decided ideas about the type of actors employed for the show boat. He never wants New York talent. “New York is the biggest hick town in the world,” he says, ‘“‘and all the actors from there are ‘type’ actors. They couldn't come aboard a show boat and take six dif- ferent parts each week; that would be too much for them. We get all our talent from the Middle West, where they have repertoire actors.” A special type of plays, too, are required for the audfences catered to by the show boat of the Chesapeake. Old-fashioned plays, with plenty of heart interest, perhaps a@ mortgage coming due to make for sus- pense, but always virtue triumphing in the end, “It’s not because our audiences are un- sophisticated,” Mr. Hunter explains, ‘‘but rather because those older plays do tell darned good stories. With automobiles and all the rest there aren’t any more ‘jakes’ left, but folks everywhere appreciate a good, clean show. The trouble with too many of the modern plays is that they’re just Smart and it’s a cheap smartness that doesn’t get anywhere. “Our plays have to be clean. Sex stuff and politics are taboo, and we don’t bother with the triangle situations. Our patrons want good, wholesome plays of the John Golden variety, and that’s what we give ’em.” ‘ themselves, Don't Use a File Under the Nails, In cleaning the nails, which follows the soaking—don’t yield to the temptation to do it with the file, This is merely piling up trouble, because it causes roughness that will catch still further grime, Use a round pointed orange-wood stick.

The program will not be changed.’ Monday they play, “‘Sally;” Tuesday, ‘“‘Don’t Lie to Your Wife; Wednesday, ‘“‘Why Girls Walk Home; Thursday, “The Weasel;” Vriday, “The Broken’ Butterfly,’’ and Saturday, *‘Pep.”’ The audiences really become a part of the show and to illustrate this the old on the show boat tell a story of a play in which the villain takes the girl to dinner and drops some powder in a glass she is sup- posed to drink from. Miss Adams was play- ing the girl. She reached for the glass. A farmer’s wife in the middle of the audience rose stiff and gaunt and cried dramatically. “Little girl, don’t you drink that stuff!” The rest of the cast held their breath. They thought it would break up the play. But Miss Adams didn't blink an eye. She partly raised the glass. and then said, ‘‘No I won't drink it,” and dashed the glass to the floor. The play went on. If she had fol- lowed the original lines she wouldn’t have taken the potion anyway, so it worked out all right. Another story is tald which serves to il- lustrate how much of an institution the coming of the show boat to a town has be- come. A townsman relates that he once asked a negro woman how old her son was. Her reply was, “Seben years next floatin’ op’ry time.” The show boat season is really a vacation for the members of the cast. With just the six shows a week they have all days to passing most of their time fishing, boating or swimming. oe Their quarters on the boat are comfort- able.

Meetings every Wednesday night through Station-WBZ at 7:30, Eastern Standard Time When Cats Take a Back Seat. -~ -_ oan The usual excuse for the keeping of the oversupply of house cats is that they are needed to keep down the rats and mice. The truth is that comparatively few cats are ratters They are good mousers——at least, many of them are—but the good they do In this way is frequently offset in large measure by thelr destruction of our birds, particularly in the nesting season. At best, their hunting for mice is more or less sporadic. Kven the best of them must take a back seat when compared with a barn owl 1s a destroyer of vermin. A pity Is that we have not more barn owls and fewer cats While the barn owl! is widely di tributed from coast to coast. it is in many sections comparatively rare Kor instance, it is by no means com tremendous mon in New England. It is the most! grotesque looking of all birds, and in many places is called the monke: faced owl. To look at it on a perch in davlight is to laugh, but as a liv ing mouse and rat trap it probably has no equal. In the East ‘rats and mice, with some other small mammals, are its daily bil! of-fare. Perhaps it would be nearer the truth to say, are its nightly bill-of-fare, A few birds are iken occasionally, but very few. Kdward: H. Forebush, the eminent ornitholo gist, states that he is unable to find a single record of this owl taking a hen, chicken or game bird. In the West gophers and ground squirrels are added to the rat and mouse menu In the South it is most destructive to the cotton rat. Altogether it is the most useful citizen, and under no circumstance hould it be disturbed. The name barn owl has been given It be eause of its liking for barns and old build ings, but it also frequents hollow trees in swamps and out-of-the-way places. Owl of this species have been found spending the hours of daylight in partly covered old wells and at the bottom of old mine shafts. There will be four or more young In a nest and they are voracious eaters. The last ummer an observer saw elght rats brought to the nest in an hour's time. Where is the cat that would catch eight rats in an hour’ time? Let us have more barn owls and fewer cats The Snowshoe Rabbit. During a fishing trip in northern Ontario | had my first contact with the snowshoe rabbit <a a nuisance, Previously I had known him merely as a desirable game ani mal in southern New England. But up found if necessary to think of this innocent looking member of the rabbit family nightly when I retired to my tent. If I didn’t put my moc- casins where he could not reach them he would cut the lacings. He would even ven- ture into the tent to do it. I must needs put my fly rod beyond his reach, lest he gnaw the grip for the salty flavor left by inv hands. I found him cordially hated by the guides. About camp he was much the same kind of a nuisance as the porcupine farther south [I could not get accustomed io it. where the waters flow north I The snowshoe rabbit is not a true rabbit It is a hare—the varying hare. But from coast to coast it goes by the name of “rab- hit.” Timid. defenseless, the prey of innu- merable predatory creatures, it always has been, and always will be, one of the im- portant forms of life in the great northern territory which it claims as its own. It is the chief source of food for many of the fur hearers. The extinction of the snowshoe rabbit would be one of the severest blows that could’ be struck at the fur industry. This has been demonstrated time and again in the years of the periodic scourge, which once in about seven years reduces the rab- bit population to a point which seemingly tugs which accompany the boat 80 that there is always one in reserve.

The seats are 30 Inches back instead of 28 as most he sald, merely plenty of from back to fheater seats are, Going back year after year to the same 35 landings, the ‘“regulars’’ aboard the boat come to know most of the established towns people. ‘“‘Pop” Neel, the box office man, knows most of them by sight and re- members them from year to year. One year, it is told, a riverman asked for five seats for Friday night. “Pop” didn’t have them. “How about five for Friday night next year,’ the man asked, “Pop” agreed. Next year when the floating theater returned to the town a man. edged up to the box office window, ‘‘Last year—’”’ he began, “Yes sir, five seats for Friday night,” said “Pop,” handing the man his tickets, “Pop” Neel is a real old timer. Members of the cast say that he played in Ringling Brothers’ Band nearly 50 years ago when the show was carried in four wagons. He played a cornet then. Now he plays the bass “‘fiddle’’ once in a while. _ The show boat folks feel as if they’re leaving home when they leave every land- ing, usually early Sunday morning3, watch- ing the wake of the boat as it draws out into the river and then heads for the next stopping place. Probably as they watch the waters of the Potomac slip by they think of the lines from Ziegfeld’s interpretation of “Show Boat”: “Old man river, old man river, . “He must know something, say nothing, “Just keeps rollin’ along.’ but he don't A PRAIRIE RATTLEPNAKE \ON THE DEFENSIVE.

So it is that in that vast northern country the snowshoe rabbit plays:a most important part in the economic life of the dwellers there, Along the southern limits of the range this animal never becomes so plentiful, and therefore is of less importance. WW PDS ’ the evycile The name “snowshoe rabbit’ has been given it because of its marvelous equipment for traveling over, rather than through, the snow. Its great hind feet are broad, long- toed and fully haired on the soles, enabling it to travel on soft snow, where other ani- mals would flounder helplessly. The name ‘varying hare” has been given to it because of the change in its pelage from brown in summer to pure white in winter. How Far Can a Rattlesnake Strike”? There appears to be a wide variation in views of the public at large as to how far » rattlesnake can strike. I have been told that one of these serpents can strike prac- tically its full length. I have been told that it can even leap at its victim. Neither of these statements is true. Dr. Ditmars, cura- tor of reptiles at the New York Zoological Park, says: “At most, the snake strikes H much shorter distance in proportion to its length. Not unless goaded into a condition of frenzy does it strike a distance of (two- thirds. of the length, and such blows are wild and delivered aimlessly. No poisonous snake springs bodily at the object of its an- ger: such a feat with a serpent is physically impossible. Rattlesnakes are among the most deadly of all serpents. Fortunately, however, they are not given to unprovoked attack. As a rule, their chief concern is in getting away. Then, too, they almost invariably give warn- ing with the rattle. All that the rattlesnake asks is to be left alone. The smaller rattle- snakes are not deadly if the wound is given the proper treatment in time. This is not true of the great diamond-back rattlesnake of Florida. This snake ranks with the most deadly serpent of the world. A Discriminating Robin. Here is the story of a robin who is de- cidedly discriminating in the choice of build- ing. It comes from Mrs..W. E. Lougees. She says: ‘‘An aunt of mine was visiting the coun- try in the spring. She washed some nice embroidered linen collars (this was in the days when ladies wore those wide collars) and spread them on the grass to -whiten. When she went for them the largest and best one was missing. All the family looked for it, but it could not be found. When the leaves had fallen in the autumn some Sie TA a Now is the time of year to divide Iris roots so that they may be replanted’ = early enough to make suffi- cient root growth to enable them to remain undisturbed by winter freezing and thawing. The diagram shows graphically how this division is best accom- plished. Dig up your old clumps of Iris and pull them apart by hand. If it is a variety that is common or one of which you have a good many, divide at points similar to that marked A on the sketch; but if it is a rare and ex- pensive kind or one of which you wish to have more, divide at such points as are in- dicated by the letter B. Any drying out is fatal to Iris roots; so have the bed to which | the divisions are to be moved in readiness and plant immediately. There are several fungous diseases to which Iris are prone, and it is often advantageous before plantin dust the roots cyan with flowers of sul] < one noticed a strip of something white hang- ing from a robin’s nest. It proved to be the lost collar. We thought it must have been a good deal of a load for a bird the size of a robin to pick up and carry off.”’ Robins, in common -with some other birds, have taken advantage of close asso- clation with man to add to their list of build- ing materials. It is rather interesting to put out various building materials in the spring for the use of the birds. Some odd nests are the result. A Naturalist’s Question Box. “What makes cobwebs in winter?’ asks Margaret Berry. Cobwebs in winter are made by the same busy little creatures that make them in the summer—spiders. “What is the difference between horns and antlers? Does it really matter how the two words are used?’’ asks James Thompson, Answering the second question first, it does make a difference if you would be cor- rect in your speech. All male members of the deer family, and females in at least one species, have antlers, a quick-growing, bony substance, which is solid all the way through. These antlers are shed yearly and are re placed in three or four months. A cow, on the other hand, hag horns. They are hollow and permanent, ryyY ’ The Three Crows. By M. N. There lived a witch upon a hill With three black crows to do her wiil. As soon. as ever the red cock crew They flapped their wings and away they flew. Says farmer's wife: ‘‘A, crow have took My primest duckling out of the brook.” Says farmer’s boy: “‘A crow have stealed A turnip out of the turnip field.’ Says farmer’s maid: ‘‘A crow,” says she, “Have off with the bacon for farmer’s tea” As soon as ever the moon was up The witch sat down by the fire to sup. She combed her hair with her skinny claw.

United States (Retired), NE hundred and fourteen years ago— September 14, 1814—in an hour of peril, Francis Scott Key, Army the country’s midst the booming of cannon and the fight- ing of men, was inspired to write “The Star- Spangled Banner.” England United States were at war, A powerful British fleet, carrying thousands of soldiers, many of them not Eng- lishmen, but the riffraff of European armies, had reached Chesapeake Bay for the purpose of destroying the large number of American privateers which had sallying forth from its waters and raiding British ships, and with the object of using the bay as a base from which a big military force would advance northward. At the same time an army from Canada was to force its way southward through the valley of the Hudson, the plan being, as in the case of the Revolu- tion, to split the country in two along the line of the Hudson, the Delaware and the Chesapeake. In other words, the United States was to be invaded and subjugated, Five thousand British red-coats, landing at a point on the Patuxent River, a tributary of Chesapeake Bay, some twenty miles from Washington, advanced on the city, and after forcing the President, his Cabinet and other officials to flee, burning the Capitol and the White House, and ransacking the library and other public buildings, the enemy returned to their ships and sailed for Baltimore, the next point of attack. British troops being landed at North Point, a few from Baltimore, the fleet con- tinued on and formed for action off Fort McHenry, standing like a forbidding sentinel at the gates of Baltimore, proclaiming ‘They shall not pass!’’ When informed that nearly all the troops defending Baltimore were of the militia, Gen. Ross, commanding the British land forces, flushed with the victory of Washington, boastfully said, “I will take Baltimore if it rains militia,’’ and when asked at breakfast the morning of September 13 whether sup- per should be prepared for him at the same place, voicing the sentiment of his army he vauntingly answered, “I will have supper in Baltimore or in hell.” At another time he boastfully remarked, “I will make my winter headquarters in Baltimore and subjugate the whole coast.”’ However, and the been miles in this world of ours things do sesto ay © Col.

There he told both Nelson and those who were handling him that it looked as though all hope were lost and, in a weary yet determined way, that the champion had better give up. Nelson shook his head and said, ‘Never! Never! Never!’ “At the ning of the fortieth round Nelson put up his arms in a position to fight, but the spectacle was pathetic. After he had been smashed full in the face and on the point of the jaw and was virtually help- less, Referee Smith stepped between the two and stopped the fray.” Wolgast won; but at what cost! His head was terribly bruised and _ battered. years later Wolgast took a terrific beating from Willie Ritchie and lost his title in the sixteenth round. From that day on Wolgast has dreamed of a come-back. Ad's delusions of continuing ring gran- deur would be comical were they not so pathetic. Now he embraces memories and goes through motions of training—training to fight ghosts, as it were, who haunt the ruined mind-temple. Closely following one of these spells, when the former champion is possessed of the de- lusion that the gong is once more going to ring for him and he begins to exercise un- wontedly, is a noticeably longer period of lu- cidity and apparent freedom from insanity. Delusional insanity, according to brain au- thorities giving attention to Wolgast’s case, is frequently the result of blows about the skull, whether received accidentally or inten- tionally, as in boxing bouts. The victims of such blows, when they become insane, sel- dom are violently so, according to these same authorities. According to Dr. Cecil E. Reynolds, of Los Angeles, who is regarded as a national au- thority on brain disorders, there is little if any hope Wolgast ever will be restored to sanity. ‘“‘He has been the victim of too many concussions upon the skull, and over too long a period,’ says this psychiatrist. He adds: “The outer surface of the cortex—that is, the outer layer of gray matter of the brain— begin- Two Pitiful Plight of “Ad” Wolgast, Former Lightweight Champion of the World, Now an Inmate of California Asylum, Where He Shadow- Boxes Daily With Phantom of “the _ Great Dane,” Waging Over i ia a > and Over the Famous Battle of Eighteen ~ Time and again Ad Wol- gast has refought in mem- ory his titanic battle with Bat Nelson, first in a Vernon, Calif., poolroom as he racked the balls, until finally his mind gave way—and now he is haunted daily by the specter of his opponent, staging for asylum inmates exhibitions of “how he did it.” Willie Ritchie, to whom Wolgast lost his title, is shown at left, while above are Battling Nelson and Ad Wolgast as they squared off before their memorable 40-round battle in 1910. George Seiler, the referee, is in the background. has been too often and too violently disturb- ed to warrant any real hope of mental res- toration.”’ A reasonable explanation, any one will say, keeping in mind the great number of times Wolgast must have been struck on the head in his scores of battles. Wolgast was committed to Patton Septem- ber 6, 1927, following a brief hearing before Superior Judge Scott, presiding over the Los Angeles County This action followed a complaint that the former champion had become a “serious problem’”’ at Jack Doyle’s gymnasium, where Ad persisted in ‘‘training’’ daily for another fight with Nelson. Wolgast was so in the grasp of this delusion, the ‘manager of the gymnasium testified, that he had become a “‘nuisance’’ about the place. Wolgast’s sentence to Patton followed by only a month his incarceration in the psycho- pathic ward of the Los Angeles County Gen- eral Hospital, where his condition was ob- served daily, with the result that he was.-re- ported very “punch-goofy.’’ Preceding these experiences, Wolgast had had additional burdens thrust upon his mind from worries over financial matters centering about his estate, which ten years ago was re- ported as being approximately $90,000. How- ever, at the time of his arraignment before the psychopathic commission Wolgast was said to be so insolvent that for some time he had been supported by Doyle, prominent sportsman and boxing promoter. Once before Wolgast had been declared mentally incompetent. This decision was handed down bya Michigan court, and as a result of it Wolgast, on the advice of Jess Willard, then the world’s heavyweight cham- pion, was committed to a private institution Psychopathic Commission. ° in that State. This decision was reversed in Los Angeles December, 1918, by the late Su- perior Judge Rives, sitting in probate court. He declared Wolgast sane and ordered his property restored to him. In 1920 Wolgast underwent a goat-gland operation and his condition was so greatly improved that within two months he fought Lee Morrissey to a draw in-San Bernardino, Calif. But the fight was so devoid of color that the fight crowd hissed and booed the combatants almost from start to finish. Two years later Wolgast was penniless and helpless, and a Los Angeles jury made him the ward of Jack Doyle, fight promoter, who staged a huge benefit to provide funds for his support. In recent years Wolgast has lived off this fund. Yet always he trained, believ- ing that he would some day regain the cham- pionship. “T’ll be ready pretty soon,” he confided to ring followers. “I’m pretty good right now!”’ He continued his workouts in Doyle's athletic club just outside of Los Angeles, working arduously. **‘No one is to box with him,’’ Doyle ordered. ‘Let him keep on shadow boxing, punching the bag and doing road work, but under no conditions is any one to hit him with a boxing glove. Tell him he is the best lightweight that ever lived.” Doyle’s orders were closely followed and the old champion did his daily stint. In this athletic club he came in contact with Jim Jeffries, Tom Sharkey, Joe Rivers, Tommy Ryan and other boxers who had fought their way to glory and then faded from view. Each of the old-timers told him how good he was. Things went on in this manner until recently, when something snapped. “He never became violent,” Jack Doyle Years Ago said, “but he was always way. lie more or less in the through his workout, saunter about the club and threaten to punch any one in the ‘snoot’ who crossed him.

The natives use it to sweeten the tea that they make from mate leaves, curiously carved gourds and sucked throuch silver tubes. The botanists have named the plant Stevia Re- baudiana; the natives call it Kaahee, The plant grows about 3 feet high and carries a flower of the daisy type. It is easily propagated by cuttings and has been grown in this country at the botanical gardens of the Department of Agriculture at Washing- ton and at the Agricultural Experiment Sta- tion of East Lansing, Mich. Substances sweeter than any sugar have been made in the chemical laboratory. Sac- charin, a coal-tar product, is 200 times as sweet as sugar, and a Japanese chemist has made a preparation from the perilla plant that is 2,000 times as sweet as sugar. But saccharin is not nutritious and carries a slightly bitter aftertaste. The Paraguayan plant is still more bitter, so it is unlikely to come into favor as a sugar substitute in this country even if we could make 1 pound take the place of 200. Perhaps the chemist can find out how to get the sweet without the bitter out of the plant. steeped in Lines on Amateur Farming.

Is there any way to sidestep the use of great minds who, in exchange for large fees, pro- duce fine-spun theories of mental deficiencies and confuse juries with hair-splitting defini- tions which render the administration of jus- tice uncertain? Beginning with the Thaw case, in which the attorney for the defendant invented the phrase “Dementia Americana” to explain and excuse a killing by a reckless and prodigal son of the rich, expert medical testimony began to assume a place of increasing importance in murder trials as lawyers discovered the influence of medical terms and imposing definitions upon the minds of the jury. Leopold and Loeb, George Remus and Will- fam Edward Hickman are several of the out- standing personalities whose killings in recent years have brought into court a corps of physicians lined upon both sides and manipu- lated by the opposing attorneys in the legal battle. The introduction of expert testimony has given the power of money a decisive influence in these cases, as the fees for experts run from $500 to $1,000 a day and the rich man is enabled to fight a better battle for life than the poor one, The New York Crime Commission, which devised the Baumes law for punishing habitual offenders, is working on the problem of con- trolling psychiatric testimony in important criminal cases. Burton D. Esmond, of Ball- ston Spa, vice chairman of the commission, has rendered the report of a committee on this subject, and the proposed remedy is arousing widespread’ discussion all America. — Where the question of insanity is raised, the defense and prosecution shall each appoint one or two recognized experts.

If the report is unanimous, be conclusive. If any one dissents, the report will be con- sidered prima facie evidence, subject to re- buttal. In case of a split report, no member of the board may be called as a witness, but each side has the privilege of calling in one or two others. With the expert chosen by the court, these would constitute a new board, all the members of which could be sworn in as witnesses if the defendant first desired to ase his nominees for his defense. However, if the second board is unanimous, or if the majority is of the same opinion as the majority of the first board, and neither side wishes to use its experts as witnesses, then the two reports are to be admitted as in- controvertible proof of the facts. In addition, the committee recommended that fees paid to each member of the board should be fixed by law and should be the same for all. If any one offered more than the fixed sum, it was an offense equal to bribery or perjury. Describing the situation which inspired the work of the committee, Mr. Esmond pointed out that great scandal has occurred from time to time in criminal courts at the trial of most important cases involving the question of the mental condition of the accused. “Through the contention of experts with hair-splitting differentiations, as well as diametrically opposed conclusions, attempts have been made to remedy this condition in several jurisdictions, but these schemes have deficiencies and shortcomings and are all es yet experimental. “The right of the defendant to call wit- nesses in his defense is protected by the Con- stitution, within certain limitations. I belleve this should be respected as a fundamental right of an individual, whether it is abso- lutely guaranteed by express constitutional provision or not, “However, the bidding in the open market for expert testimony, the seemingly inex- haustible supply of ready-at-hand expert opinion to meet the exigencies of either side of these cases, the debonair evolution of newly invented and fine-spun theories of mental processes and the desired deduction therefrom have resulted in a situation which is not only a play of wits, but a contest of its evidence wil!

Every one, . consciously or unconsciously, strives to retain the high regard of the com- munity in which he lives, and to be respected in the sphere in which he’ earns his living. A reputation for soundness and integrity is a personal asset—an intangible, if you will, but not infrequently translatable to material ad- vantage. Many attributes and habits of living go to make up the badge of respectability and high standing which we find so desirable, but none outranks the virtue of being prompt in meet- ing financial obligations. Individuals are un- consciously rated by those with whom they have any business relation in much the same. manner that commercial agencies adjudge the credit standing of business organizations. In the business world it is well known that the highest ratings are accorded only to such con- cerns that have demonstrated their good faith oe reliability in payment over a considerable of time. They must be known to dis- their bills, or at least meet them within intervals. In much the same manner, individuals build up their own credit rating in the course of their daily contacts. More- over, exactly as the corporation finds a high credit rating an important adjunct to the con- duct of its business, so the individual firds the esteem of his business associates or others with whom he deals, of inestimable value. Nothing so facilitates the making of a loan or 80 rapidly brings forth the needed degree of credit extension as a reputation for prompt pay. Timely settlement 6f obligations is not only an indication of solvency, but its prac- tice announces to the world a policy of square dealing, of getting what is paid for and pay- ing for what is received. The man who pays the tradesmen on time, who is on the dot with the rent, never lets an insurance policy lapse, is not even delinquent in his club dues or his benevolence pledges, is somehow the same person who secures the most favorable terms in financing his new home and who always seems to be able to avail himself of the most attractive invest- ment opportunities even though it may mean securing rather elastic or liberal credit terms. With all his prompt payment and seemingly constant outgo he appears in better funds than his carefree and delinquent neighbor; and, what is stil] more important, he has peace of mind and the regard of his fellow reduce the chances of complication again by providing that these witnesses shall all be paid an equal sum for their services, and that, instead of being sworn as witnesses in the first instance and entering into a public dispute and debate on their testi- mony with the witnesses on the other side, they shall sit as a second board with the witness or witnesses called by the district attorney and the witnesses appointed by the court; and if this new board Is unanimous, or if a majority of them agree with the first board, then the findings of both boards shall be introduced in evidence and constitute in- controvertible proof, Now if the finding of the first board was unanimous, the matter would end there. “If the finding of the first board was not unanimous but satisfactory to the defendant, the matter would end there. “If the findings of the first board: was not unanimous and not satisfactory to the de- fendant, and the finding of the second board was unanimous, or the finding of the second board not being unanimous agreed with the majority of the first board, the chances. are very strong that neither the district attorney nor the defendant would care to call their witnesses and have them testify, as they would be met by a majority opinion of two separate boards. In this way, I believe, we would eliminate controversial testimony in court.’’ ¢ Dr. Charles Ww.

Discovered in the Upper Cretaceous geological formation, it is the smallest horned dinosaur yet found in this country. Since making that find Dr. Gilmore has always wanted to go back to the region, which is practically an unworked field for the paleontologist.

When all is said and done, I don’t believe Great Brit- gin cares a row of pins what anthem we have. It would be an entirely safe guess that there are not a hundred people in the whole British empire who know the words of “The Star-Spangled Banner,’’ and probably these have none other than an academic interest in them. It would, therefore, of this objection that been built by well-meaning Americans are worrying about what England thinks of our national anthem more than the British themselves, who apparently give the subject little or no thought. Setting aside all maudlin sentimentality, it may be said that as long as men are men and women are women, we will continue to think of national anthems as being ‘‘written in blood with pens of iron.” To denounce the country’s enemy in terms of hostility and vengeance mars a national anthem no more than the use of cannon in war detracts from the greatness of a nation. On the con- trary, from nature of national an- thems, denunciation of the country’s en@mies adds strength, vigor and nationality. The biblical ‘injunction, “‘And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other,” has no place in national anthems. The best proof of what has just been said is found in what are generally conceded to be the two most famous national anthems in the world, ‘‘La Marseillaise” (of France), and “‘God Save the King”’ (of Great Britain).

The second stanza of “God Save the Kine.’ with its unmincinge words, reads O Lord, our God arise, Seatter his (the King’s) And make them fall! Confound their politics, Frustrate their knavish tricks, On him (the king) our hopes we fix, O save us all! Regarding the objection that “The Star Spangled Banner” is a “song of hate,’’ it may be said that Francis Scott Key, prominent lawyer, devout Christian, a vestry- man of his church, and a Sunday teacher, wrote “‘The Star-Spangled Banner” in the heat and battle, after he had seen the Capitol of his Nation and the White House wantonly burned and the library and other public buildings ran- sacked by an enemy of his country—an act of vandalism that was condemned at the time by many in Canada and England. The senti- ments expressed were, in the circumstances, but human and natural. It may also be said that no one objecting to this verse (the third) of the anthem need sing it, unless he wants.to. As a matter of fact, the feeling of animosity engendered by the War of 1812 having long since died a natural death, this verse is now seldom, if ever, sung, and is omitted from many printed versions of the anthem. So far as the present and future generations are concerned, the verse has, to all intent and purpose, been eliminated from our national anthem—-an elimination made by the American people themselves, by ‘‘com- mon consent,” through the mollifying influ- ence of time. To condemn and stigmatize “‘The Star- Spangled Banner’ as a ‘“‘song of hate’’ be- cause one of its stanzas, written in the midst of battle, denounces our then British enemy for one of the most wanton and outrageous pieces of vandalism in the history of war, is, of course, nothing but foolish emotionalism. The denunciation was natural and logical. If “The Star-Spangled Banner” is a ‘“‘song of hate’? because it denounces the country’s enemy, then ‘‘La Marseillaise’’ and “‘God Save the King’”’ are also ‘“‘songs of hate;”’ for they, too, even in stronger and more vengeful lan- guage, denounce the enemies of their coun- tries. However, it is very much doubted if enemies who Was a school excitement of soon “any of those who call ‘‘The Star-Spangled Banner” a “song of hate” would ever think of so calling ‘‘La Marseillaise”’ or “God Save the King.” ~ .

Each sings of glory and triumph; each speaks of the havoc of war and of home and country. of its country’s enemies, washed out their foul the other says, ‘‘Their blood impure shall our thresholds bathe ere long’’—one mentions “the hireling and slave;"’ the other speaks of “that horde of slavish minions.” Can it be possible that during tne agonizing hours of his terrible vigil, when the life of the young nation whose independence they had helped to gain was in peril, the soul of Francis Scott Key was hearing the voices of Lafayette and Rochambeau, those two great French patriots whose national anthem was ‘La Marseillaise?”’ The writer sometimes thinks that some of our people do not fully realize what a truly great and inspiring national anthem we have in “The Star-Spangled Banner.’’ The more one studies the anthems of other nations the prouder is he of “The Star-Spangled Banner” and the more is he convinced that we have one of the greatest national anthems in the world—an .anthem that ranks with Marseillaise’’ and ‘‘God Save the King.”’ In- deed, it may truly be said that they are the three greatest national anthems in the world; that they constitute ‘The Trinity of National Anthems.” And it may also be said with ab- solute truth that no other national anthem was ever written under such romantic and thrilling circumstances as those under which “The Star-Spangled Banner” came into being.

A Westerner would rate these mountains as foothills; they gare very low compared to the Rockies and the Sierras; but the records show that in this Eastern range more pilots have lost their lives than have been killed in both the. Western ranges. Fog, the dark gray blindness that puts fear into the stoutest heart, is the answer. Aviators picture hell as a place in which, for their sins, they will have to fly through an infinity of fog; a misty, vaporous Gehenna studded with wooded mountains and hills, against which, at any moment throughout eternity, they must expect to crash. There is a fog at Western mountains, but not so prevalently as in the Alleghenies. The gray mass that rolls up- ward from the valley of the Susquehanna River is the quicksand of the clouds, or the Sargasso of the skies. times in the Capt. Jim Reading had been in the Air Mail before he became special agent of the Department of Justice, charged with inves- tigating crimes of the air. He knew the Alleghenies in fog as well as any American pilot, civil or military. Reading had returned to Washington after bringing down Jason Giles, hi-jacker and sky pirate of Rum whose raids from the clouds off the Atlantic Coast had terrorized rum runners and defied the Coast Guard. This hawk among criminals would be caged for a long time to come in the Atlanta Peni- Row. “tentiary, his clipped wings flapping against thick stone walls. It was late in the afternoon, and Reading was at his seldom-visited desk in the Bureau of Investigation after a long tramp through Rock Creek Park. There he* exercised his only hobby: the study of bird life on the wing. He never visited the aviary, that dole- ful collection of feathered captives that geemed to have lost even the desire to fly. Besides, the wing structure of birds was an elementary part of his knowledge of flying. Odd as it may seem to those who do not fly, there is little opportunity for an aviator to study bird life when he is himself in the air. All winged things, from the sparrow to the eagle—the exceptions have been extreme- ly rare—fiee from an airplane, probably re- garding it as a great bird of prey. Reading loved to study them from hillsides and in the woods. He regarded his office as a cage from which he escaped as often and as long as he could: his work kept him on the most of the time. Now he looked across his desk at Henry Jamison, chief of the bureau, who had telephoned that he would meet him there concerning a case submitted by the War Department. wing Reading’s was a position of peculiar inde- pendence in the Government service, There was little in the wide experience of his chief or other officials which could contribute to the solution of crimes involving aircraft; little in the experience of any investigator whose work had been wholly on the ground. Reading depended mainly on his knowledge of the air and airmen, upon hunches and action: rarely upon finely drawn deduction. The fiying detective operated in a new field, pioneering in a new element, or rather one of the oldest elements newly explored. His primary clues came usually out of the air, and the special instinct of the flying man, particularly the aviator experienced in com- bat, guided him always. “Briefly, the job is this,” said Jamison: “The Army Air Service thinks there is some- thing queer in the number and manner of recent accidents to its pilots on flights over the Alleghenies. Fog has accounted for some of them, but within four weeks four pilots have crashed and have been killed on days when the weather has been as clear as it ever is in those mountains. In none of these recent cases has the cause been defi- nitely established.” “TIas the Army Air Service forwarded copies of the reports of the crash boards?” asked Reading. “They are in the hands of the chief of the “service,” replied Jamison. “If you will call at Gen. Pettibone’s office at 10 tomorrow morning he'll outline the case to you and give you the reports.’’ “I'll telephone him to expect me,” assent- ed Reading. Jamison lifted his bulky figure from the chair, and Reading walked with him to the door. “T read your report on the Giles case this morning,’ said Jamison. ‘It was a quick job. Must have given you a lot of satisfac- tion to put a crook aviator like that out of business.” | “His capture was simple enough. In fact, most of the work was done by Lieut. Hen- -drick, the young Coast Guard pilot who caught him at his raiding.

His adventures in the air are thrilling. John Ames, nom de plume of a flying ad- venturer who has flown 50,000 miles himself, and who knows the air scenes of which he writes from personal and often thrilling experience, tells of the exciting adventures of this first of the flying detectives. His stories are fiction, but they are in the realms of possibility, and may forecast a romance of the air that will come true. “I didn’t know for sure I a hunch that it might be he.. That came to me in Washington after I had gone over the reports of the crash boards. Deranged ignition in every case! Then I recalled the crazy interview with Whitney Blake that the Washington papers printed after the War and Navy Departments had refused to consider his invention and his claims for it.’”’ Reading handed a newspaper clipping to the mail official. ‘‘Read the last paragraph,”’ he indicated. Stetson read: ***T will yet find a way to convince the Government by practical demonstration of the power and effectiveness of my lightning ray,’ said Blake excitedly. The inventor seemed greatly overwrought.” ‘You recall what Stetnmetz, before he died, and others had succeeded in doing with artificial lightning,” said Reading. ‘‘Well, it seemed possible that this inventor, un- balanced or not, had carried their experi- ments a step further and succeeded in pro- jecting artificial lightning for miles instead of mere yards. “Anyway it seemed worth taking a chance on. And I wanted to see the thing work for myself, so I arranged to have the officers raid the cabin simultaneously with the at- tack on my plane, which I invited. The ex- tra insulation protected me. The rays de- ranged most of my instruments, however. “Evidently Blake intended at first to bring down only military planes, for he let the mail planes alone; then, insanely elated by his success, he decided to make his dem- onstration complete by showing what could be done with airways, beacons as well. Heavens knows what he would have tried next to make good his boast.” What the technical experts of the Goy- ernment learned from the mountain labora- tory is now a secret of the War College, shar- ed only by Reading.

This tape is 2% inches wide, and will show the hours. minutes, seconds and hundredths of seconds The printing wheels of the timing. machine are driven by a constant speed motor. checked every second by ae chronometer. This chronometer, incidentally, costs $750. So delicate and so seemingly intelHgent is the machinery that if a car crosses the wire at faster than 60 miles an hour, the machine does not make separate records of the front and rear wheels. A timing official sitting beside thia machine notes down beside each impression on the tape the number of each racing car as the machine records its instant of cross- ing. He does this each time a car crosses the line, so that every lap is recorded for every car. If in the rush and eonfusion this official should omit a car at the end of one lap, the elapsed time for that lap would of course show double the proper amount and the error would be obvious. ‘> avert any difficulty of too many cars crossing together, a caller, checked by an assistant, cries out the numbers of cars as they come down tke stretch. The numbers are recorded by two or three writers, on con- secutively numbered cards. Thus they can readily be checked with the tape record. But the tape record is always final in case of any doubt. This procedure is for the purpose of getting the elapsed time of the cars per lap and for the race, This elapsed time must then be translated into miles per hour. Here again machinery is relied on to obviate man’s mistakes and to shorten the time necessary for figuring. The elapsed time is handed immediately to an operator of a Monroe machine, who sets a few keys, presses the button and gets the correct answer almost instantly. This calculating machine is also electrically operated. In the big speed races, this calculating work is simplified by the preparation before the race of “‘constants’’ for each lap. The problem is to divide distance by time to get the speed, but as the time is taken in seconds correct to two decimal places, it is necessary to multiply the course distance in miles by 3,600. the number of seconds in an hour. The resultant figure is called the constant foralap. For two laps of course the constant is twice as large and so on. The calculating machine divides this constant by the elapsed time in seconds, and gets thereby the miles per hour. In the Florida speed tests, where only one car is timed, the speed is worked out on the machine long before the driver can stop his car, turn, and drive back to the timing stand. Several men have made a profession of timing the big races. Perhaps best known among them is Odis A. Porter, chief timer for the National Aeronautical Association. He has timed hundreds of the epoch-making races of the past, and is responsible for many authentic figures of record speeds. His is a full time*job of an ultra-modern kind, Our grandfathers would not have known what to make of it. cae \ a i} ae a ee Ae:

KOR THE WASHINGTON PC “BOYS AND GIF The Aunior Post. en SECTION OF ——- oe + THE WASHINGTON POST ee oe WASHINGTON, D. C., SEPTEMBER 16, 1928, THE SCHOO el eesti -———— -- The Tasks of the Student Are Only a Drill for Later Life Dear Post Boys and Girls: Here's success and happiness for the new school year! It will begin tomor- row morning for many of the mem- bers of the Junior Post when the pub- lic schools of the District open their doors for the thousands of fortunate boys and girls of the National Capl- tal. Many of you take up your studies, I know. There is so much to learn in the world and the beat time is in childhood in order to pre- pare yourselves to enjoy life and to be useful citizens. The children of to- day both in the grammar schools and in high school have a much more in- teresting time than the children of other gencratjons. They more comfortable places in which to study, better books, heating and lighting fa- cllities. Many of our famous men and women of history and the present day had to struggle hard to get an education, walk miles to school and save their pennies to buy The schoolhouses, even in the cities, did not the modern structures of today. Often the parents and teachers did not give are eager to have books. compare so much attention to bodily comforts | of the pupils as they do now. The schoolroom, like any other com- munity, depends for its well being on the personnel and spirit of those who inhabit it. Usually the scholars who obey the rules and think of the good in the schoolroom will be citizens in the community through with school business of making of others the when and begin the good in the world. There have been from the beginning of time boys and girls and men and women who are full of fun. In fact, the world would be a dull place with- out them. But remember that there 1s a great deal of difference between fun making and disobedience and actions which mean lack of discipline and har- assment to the teachers and those in authority over you. In this modern age when so many have a creed of “do as you please,” the successful and thoughtful person realizes that to do as the individual pleases is all right only so far as doing as he pleases does not affect or restrict the happiness and liberty of others. The right to lead your own life is secondary, if you are 6 fine and generous person, to the right of those about you to lead their own lives. We can not live in the world alone. unless we go off on a desert Iis- land, and even then we can not do as we please, for we would be restricted by and the resources et rood they are circumstances hand, We are very much pleased with the understanding many of The Post boys and girls have of the meaning of the United States Constitution. We read their stories submitted for the contest with much interest. We hope you all think of the signing of this great docu- ment on the anniversary tomorrow. In starting bright and early to school and obeying the rules you are doing your part toward upholding the Constitution of the United States. with | SO many Post boys and liked the first chapter of the Little Gift Makers,” the Junior Post serial. so well that as early as Sunday night some sec- ond chapters had itor’s office.

The people were very surprised and the children started eating and sleep- ing regularly, and they grew into the men and women of today. MIMI DAY (age 9). Fort Bragg, N. C.

One hundred and forty-one | years ago there assembled at Philadel- phia a group of notably superior men from the standpoint of mental ability, /moral courage and political keenness. They were men from every walk of life, but they were men of great strength and ability. Men who had for years previous served their beloved country. Some had rendered military service in the Revolutionary War; others had helped in the making of their State constitutions. But all had devoted their lives to the study of making our Government better. These. men worked out a plan from which the Constitution was finally drawn up. Such illustrious men as Washington, Hamilton, Madison, Ells- worth and Morris gave “their whole- hearted attention to the making of the wonderful document which changed an almost desperate situation and took this country out of a state of chaos into that of calm and orderly progress. So, then, why shouldn’t we preserve this Magna Charta, this wonderful Constitution that so altered our entire national destiny? Preserve it, by. all means. Keep it where all our coun- try’s citizens may read it and Say: “That is not a mere scrap of paper, aged with the years. It is not just sentiment that makes us want to keep it forever. It is the Constitution! The laws of the Government of the great- est and best country—the Constitution of the United States!” DOROTHY A. LAUSEN (age 17). 1309 Quincy street northwest.

Donald, Kenneth and Jack were play- ing "fire brigade” with Donald's new | birthday wagon when Donald's mother | asked “No vou want to go with me to Aunt Jane's? The new puppies must, have their eyes open by now.” Indeed Donald did. He started to get his wagon Then he noticed the disappointed looks of the others.) Neither of them had a wagon. He stood | still a moment, then ran to his mother | and whispered: “May they play with gone?’’ Mother consented. For a while Ken- neth and Jack’ continued the game. Then, as they were trying to stop quickly. the tongue caught, twisted and broke off short. “Well, said Jack bravely, “we've got to pay for it. How much money have you?” “Two dollars,”’ said Kenneth sulkily, “but I am saving it for a train.” “What of it?” asked Jack. want to be honest, don’t you? I have almost $3, Christmas money. It won't be enough, for the wagon cost $11. Maybe we can work for Donald's father for the rest. There he comes now. Let’s tell him.” “So you want to pay as much money as you have,” he asked. “Yes, Mr. Johnson,” boys. “Jump in the car,” he smiled. “A new tongue is 40 cents. I asked about repair parts when we bought the wag- on. We'll have it mended when Donald returns.” HELENA FOUST (age 13). 4108 Ellicott street. A Rainy Day.

She came to a place as dark as pitch, She couldn't see a bit around her. All of a sudden an arm or something Jean. Oh, how terrible! She couldn't find Jean anywhere, and she didn’t even know the way home. The people at home had missed Mar- tha, and Mr. Morelin had started out for her. He heard her cries and came and took her home. After school the next day Martha de- termined to get Jean and not to get lost. She went to the forest and heard a voice saying: “Make all perfect marks and I'll give you your doll.” So she went home and told her parents. They said, “Well, you must try and make all perfect marks.” Martha was cor ing home from school one day and she had all perfect marks. It was wonderful. Now she could get Jean.

Not only was having a perfectly thrilling first air- plane ride, but I was having it with Col. Charles A. Lindbergh. Think of it! My first airplane ride with Lindy! Oh, there we go on another somer- sault—up again. Almost dizzy from circling so much, I gazed out of the machine. But I saw nothing but clouds, clouds, clouds. Then a terrible nose dive and—oh, my poor stomach! Lindy had lost control and the plane was falling! Falling through space, Ooh, my head was swimming, and my stomach! I thought surely it would probab‘y land on earth before me. I'd had that feeling before when going down in an elevator, but this was much worse. Only a few feet more and WE'D be on the—bump! crash! bang! We struck the ground. I felt around me, but no plane was in sight. What was that? Felt like a rug. Sure enough. I was sitting on the floor be- fore my own bed. (No more crab salad for me before going to bed!) My long- cherished dream is still a dream, but no longer is it a cherished one. If it feels anything like it did in my dream—lI'll just let Lindy do my flying for me! DOROTHY A. LAUSEN (age 17), 1309 Quincy street northwest. Boasting. (Honorable Mention.)

The Saturnians, in their gi- gantic space-—-fliers—and with their terrible death-dealing instruments, rushed down upon the horror-stricken Martians. The blow was so unexpected and the people so baffled that they did not have time to put up a defense. However, Kan Taro and shis_ son, Sirano, managed to obtain a small fleet of aerial warships and attempted to destroy some of the Saturnian ma- chines. But in vain. The ships of the Martian fleet ‘fell rigist and left, like wind-tossed leaves. “Father,” cried Sirano to Kan Taro, “I knew it was coming.

It spread over the ship until it had en- veloped it. The machine seemed to vibrate, became indistinct, was gone— destroyed. The planet Mars had lost its greatest warrior and scientist. Within the course of time the Satur- nians, with their horrible machines and instruments, killed every Martian in existence and destroyed all the mag- nificent buildings and cities. Finally, being satisfied at the de- struction they had wrought, the in- vaders from Saturn returned to their native planet. Sirano’s premonition had become a reality. * EDWARD FRANK HOPPER. 1333 Belmont street. “Then we all sang the dog’s holiday and comed home,” said a little girl tell- Se § about her first day in Sunday well, and “Ope ' in Mono-'| metropolis | his | exclaimed, | of that | the Saturnians are just coming on an| I was a) | ‘Me.
