Judge to Rule Place, Once Padlocked, Is Not to Be Eating House. Lock Snapped On Again. Chicago, Nov. 21 (A.P.).—A restaurant is not a restaurant when it has “love creations,” “riots of fun,” “gypsy dances” and “beautiful girls” on its menu. No less an authority than Federal Judge James H. Wilkerson reached this decision as to what constitutes a res- taurant today. As a result the “grand opening” of the old midnight frolics for years a bright light in Chicago’s South Side night life, has been post- poned for several months. It had been set for tonight. ‘The frolics went the way of a score ot other cabarets last May, when a Fed- eral padlock was snapped on fts gilded doors because it violated the pronibi- tion laws.

Ever since Rothstein died at the Polyclinic Hospital, two days after he was shot, the combined resources o0/ the police, district attorney’s office and surety companies have tried to establish a link between Arnstein and Rothstein. Long before that Rothstein was suspectec of having received from the other $4,000,000 ot the %5,000,000 in bonds stolen from Wall street mes- senger boys nine years ago. The evi- dence was not strong enough to con- vict Arnstein of the theft or Roth- stein of any connection. The correspondence, curiously enough, was with “Jules W. Arnold,” which became Nicky’s high-hat name when “Nicky Arnstein” carried many evil connotations. Again, District Attorney Banton ex- pressed the belief that many other .ex- traordinary dealings will be disclosed, among them the extent to. which Rothstein financed the operations of the Communist—or leit wing—workers in various trade disputes..In the lat- te’ operation alone, it is believed, the gambler lent many thousands of dol- lars. too Notes Cover Wide Range. “These notes would seem to indi- cate,” Mr. Banton declared, “that his activities reached every corner of the underworld ’ He has. consequently, assigned Lieut Detective Richard Oliver, an authority on the machinations of “fences,” and Assistant District Attorney Albert B.

South Sudbury, Mass., Nov. 21 (N.Y. N.W.S.).—A mutiny of boy students at the Wayside Inn Trade School, which is run by Henry Ford for State wards, was revealed today when it was learned that three of the four teachers had resigned because of the refusal of the Ford resident manager, and later of Mr Ford, himself, to expel the school “bully.” Four of the five students who “walked out” in sympathy with.the teach are back in school now, but the fifth is still missing and Joe Zukatuinski, 17-year-old cause of the flurry, is still a member of the schodl. The teachers who have ,resigned will be replaced. The trouble started last week when the instructors, Louis Mackeil and Law- rence O'Connor, and a matron, Mrs. Eleanor Thompson, asked Earl Boyer, Ford's Wayside Inn representative, to remove Joe from school.

Jessup asked. Passengers on Port Side. with the ship “Most of the passengers were gath- @red up there away from the water,” Johnson offered in explanation. Previously he gave much the same Feason to United States Attorney Tut- tle, the fact that one boat on the low Bici- of the ship had been launched with Only a handful of men in it, all mem- Bers of the crew. “Why were there no people in that Boat?” Tuttle asked before Capt. Jessup took the witness. “There were so few about at the time,” Johnson said. “It was on the starboard side and almost every one Was up on the port side.” When Capt. Jessup was through with the chief officer, having questioned him at length about leaking doors and ports On ths Vestris and having asked him Why the Vestris had reported “Nothing to communicate” to its sister ship, the Voltaire, a few hours before it sank, ® question Johnson could not answer, Tuttle continued his examination. Johnson told Tuttle that he knew the situation of the Vestris was critical Dut that if he himself had been in command he would have delayed send- ing an S O S just as long as Capt. Carey did. Gale Was Moderating. “Why wouldn’t you sooner?” Tuttle asked. “Well, the gale was moderating all the time Monday.” “But the list of the ship, you have said, was steadily increasing and water Was coming in from an unknown source? Under these conditions you would not have sent out an S O S be- fore 10 o’clock Monday morning’ That's your position is it?” “I suppose it is.” “But you know now you would have been wrong, don’t you?” “Yes, I guess I would.” Gustave Wohl, the Vestris’ carpen- ter—who said he had been a ship's Carpenter fo- more than 30 years—fol- lowed the chief officer on the stand and testified that he, personally, work- ing ©1 a staging let down over the Bide of the ship, supervised the caulk- ing of the Vestris’ coal ports and hull doors, with spun yarn and white lead Before she sailed. These openings all leaked according to previous testimony. Caulked * Wohl said the chief officer told him Bunday afternoon that a half-door on the ort side of the Vestris was leak- ing and that he fixed it. Later in the afternoon, he said, he went to fix the Starboard half-door, whch was leaking, but not so badly he thought, as to let in enough water to cause the ship to list. . “The spun yard and white lead had Washed out,” he said. “I caulked it up again.” “Did that stop the leak?” “Yes, for a little while, water coming in washed the caulking out, 1 caulked it up again about 9 o'clock Sunday evening.” Questioned by Capt. Jessup, Wohl said he worked on that starboard half- door at intervals all the rest of Sun- day night, until about 1 a. m., when he was called to repair several broken port holes. He then started taking soundings in the ship’s bilge tanks, he said, reporting to Capt. Carey every balf hour. His last soundings, at 5 a. m., Monday, he said, revealed that no bilge tank on the ship held more than 2 feet of water. “Where do you think the water was coming into the ship?” Capt. McCon- key, the British nautical advisor, asked him. “We couldn’t find out,” Wohl re- plied. ~On his second trip to the witness stand, James Adams, the chief engl- neer, largely reiterated testimony he * had given earlier in the hearing.

ARE GIVEN TO COMMITTEE New Orleans, Nov. 21 (A.P.).—The proposal of Herbert Hoover to create a $3,000,000,000 fund for Nation-wide construction in slack times was brought formally before the convention of the American Federation of Labor late to- day. John P. Fry, secretary of the metal trades department of the federation, read the address of Gov. Ralph O. Brewster of Maine in which he had out- lined the construction plan earlier in the day to the governors’ conference at the request of the President-elect. At the conclusion of the reading, the proposal took its regular place in the order of business, but it is expected to be called up again tomorrow when the governors, who plan to adjourn their conference tonight instead of tomor- row, Will attend the labor convention as private citizens. The morning session was devoted mainly to an address by John March- back, assistant industrial general sec- retary of the National Union of Rail- way Men of Great Britain, who told of the unemployment in the British Isles “Government figures,” he said. “show tLere are 1,384,000 unemployed in the nation, but that is far from being the actual fivures when all men and wom- en and their dependents are taken into consideration. At the present time 663.503 persons are receiving poor relief and thousands are working part time and living on the border line of pov- erty.” Federal investigation of rumors that the steamer Vestris delaye” its 5 OS while its agents dickered for tugs in order to reduce the cost of salvage was asked in a resolution offered. Another resolution charged that the sinking of the vessel and the loss of approximate- ly 100 lives was “plainly the result of a disregard of safety regulations and laws by two governments—the United States and Great Britain. Both reso- lutions were referred to committee. The convention reiterated its ap- proval of the five-day week in industry and adopted resolutions favoring an eight-hour day for employes of veterans hospitals and for all “paid fire fighters in the United States and Canda.” Vancouver, Canada, and Denver, Colo., extended invitations for the 1929 convention. Fraternal greetings were extended by Mr. Marchbank and Ebby Edwards, representing the British Trades Union Congress, and by William Varley, of the Canadian Trades and Labor Cong- ress Marchbank called the present government in Great Britain “the most reactionary in the last 100 years.” Earthquake in Manila Sends Many to Street Manila, Philippine Islands, Thursday.

Adams showed he ‘vas very uncertain about this. “When the ship was listing about 30 degrees,” Capt. McConkey said, “the half door about which there has been testimony must have been continuously under water?” “sen “You did not investigate,” Jessup interrogated, “to find water was coming in that way?” “No” The hearing was adjourned until to- morrow. British Suggestions Accepted. Before Johnson was called Tuttle told the commission that Capt. Henry Mc- Conkey, the British expert acting as advisor at the hearing, had made sev- eral suggestions which he approved. Capt. McConkey suggested calling as a witness the master of the Vestris who preceded the late Capt. William Carey, who went down with his ship. The man’s name it was learned, is Banbra. He also advised offering the Lamport & Holt Line, owners of the Vestris, the opportunity to place on the stand any of their officials or employes they wished with a view to establishing the cause of the disaster, which cost more than 100 lives, to place the responsibil- ity for it, and to determine if the ship was in proper condition to go to sea on its last voyage. An official of the line, who was present at the hearing said he would produce such men, and tomorrow was Capt if the set for their testimony.

The incidental expenses were footed by the association, he said, and the amount was, roughly, $10.000 @ year. Dr. Samuel J.

The suggestion is made in the name of President-elect Hoover by Gov. Brewster of Maine to the conference of governors in ses- sion in New Orleans, that a $3,000,000,000 Nation-wide. construction reserve fund be es- tablished to be released in times of over- production and unemployment: Briefly, it is proposed that public authorities store up a reserve of construction projects equal to two years’ normal! expenditure on improvements. No infringement of legislative prerogatives is contemplated. The fund is to be released only when indexes shall indicate the need, and the money will flow to the contractor, to the laborer, to the material man, to the factory, to the factory employe, to the merchant and to the farmer. “It would go,” said Gov. Brewster, “‘like the house that Jack.built and unemployment would be at an end.” Possibly so. It stupefies the imagination to try to conceive of the 48 State legislatures agreeing upon a program as beneficial and as gigantic as this, but possibly it might be achieved. It should not be difficult for the States to build up a credit and cash reserve amounting to $3,900,000,000. It should be possible to create an index that would show whether or not an employment emergency ex- isted; but when it comes to interpreting the index, and deciding when the unemployment reserve should be released, there is bound to be trouble. Last winter, for example, there was talk of unemployment. Senator Wagner, of New York, informed the Senate in dramatic tones that the unemployment situation in his State and throughout the country was most serious. He presented statistics to back up his asser- tion, and he clung to his story in the face of statistics presented by the Department of La- bor to show that if unemployment existed it was largely of the seasonal variety. What would have happened last winter if there had been in existence a $3,000,000,000 ynemploy- ment reserve? Would Senator Wagner’s in- dex, proving that an emergency existed, have prevailed, or would the Department of Labor’s statistics have been accepted by those in- trusted with the fund? The Brewster-Hoover suggestion, however, deserves consideration. The United States has succeeded in solving so many economic and social problems that it should not be assumed to be unable to solve the question of how prosperity, once attained, could be continued. No doubt the suggested reserve fund would be a buffer against uuemployment, but an even greater task than preventing unemployment is the job of inducing 48 States to agree upon any single proposition. They have never unanimously agreed upon anything yet, except when the Nation was faced with war. VALUATIONS AND FARES. In public utility matters, valuation has come to be the point at issue, not only in Washing- ton, but in every city where charges are based upon earnings. The utility is permitted to charge for its services rates calculated to make its earnings commensurate with its value. Sometimes it is permitted to earn a “‘fair’’ re- turn upon its value, and the courts are called upon to designate what is “fair.” Sometimes it is permitted to earn a certain designated percentage of its value. In either case, how- ever, the rate charged is inseparably bound up in the valuation legally established. Two important public utilities matters are now before Washington. The Gas Light Co. valuation hearings will be resumed before the Public Utilities Commission next Monday. The proposed street railway merger scheme will be brought before Congress soon after it con- venes. The gas company is striving to have its valuation increased in order that it may raise its rates. The street railway companies seek to merge in the interests of operating effi- ciency and economy, but the principal opp:si- tion to the plan rests in the belief that the $50,000,000 valuation claimed is too high. In at least one most important respect the street railway and gas company proposals differ. The latter company is a monopoly, pure and simple. The public has to purchase its gas or do without. Street railways, however, no longer can be pure monopolies. They face the the individual’s legs. Elsewhere traction of- ficials have discovered that there is a certain point beyond which fares can not be raised without affecting income. Elsewhere it has 4, been discovered that if street railway prop- _# erties are to survive every effort must be made + to please the riding public, and with this end in view the so-called de luxe trolleys and = “buses have been developed and put into service. te Washington street railways should be ‘merged. Under unified operations numerous ‘economies would be possible that would make for more efficient service and should make ‘possible reduced fares. The unified company, ‘THE ‘WASHINGTON POST: THURSDAY, NOVEMBER legal right to increase its charges can not be depended upon to resist the temptation to raise its rates, even when the extra charge ; turns away patronage. NEGLIGENCE AT SEA, ach day of investigation into the sinking of the British steamer Vestris brings out new evidence of negligence.’ The accident which cost the lives of more.than 100 persons ap- pears to be chargeable to the carelessness of not one but many persons. Failure of one man to take precaution can often be offset by the diligence of others, but when negligence rules all along the line disaster is inevitable. Three members of the crew have testified to leaks and defects that were allowed to go unre- paired for months. The chief’ fireman said under oath that the ash ejector, which let tons of water into the stokehold the morning of the disaster, had leaked every time the Vestris encountered rough weather since December, 1926. Three Federal inspectors have testified that they spent four days thoroughly inspecting the vessel at New York before pronouncing her seaworthy. But they admit inspecting six of the vessel’s fourteen coal ports only by flash- ing an electric light on them, and they did not lower the lifeboats to see if the tackle was working properly. Previous testimony showed that leaky port holes hastened the disaster and that two of the lifeboats filled with women and children went down with the Vestris because they stuck when being lowered. The senior surviving officer of the ill-fated ship testified that his subordinates ignored his orders during the sinking, that crew members failed to stand by at the lifeboats, and that the women and children were: placed in the most dangerously situated boats. To this extensive evidence of inefficiency must be addéd the fact that Capt. Carey delayed his S O S$ until it was too late for rescue vessels to prevent loss of life. The Vestris was a ship in regular service. It underwent Government inspection and was also pronounced in perfect seaworthy condition by a representative of the owners. The tragedy leaves the public wondering how many more passenger carrying ships are operated as care- lessly. The investigations now under way have brought out sufficient evidence to justify rivzid overhauling of the Steamship Inspection Serv- ice as well as safety measures upon the seas. SHAKESPEARE, SCHOOLMASTER. In.a lecture recently given before members of the of ae... oe Dover Wilson, professor of education in the University of London,.took as his subject, ‘‘The Schoolmaster He linked the general subject up with the specific question as to whether the tradition that Shakespeare was himself once a schoolmaster has any foundation in fact. Every one, of Aubrey, an indefatigable about Shakespeare in the seventeenth century, once interviewed one William Beeston, son of that Christopher Beeston who had in his day been a member of the company of players to which Shakespeare belonged. Asa result of what he then heard, as well as of what from other sources of informaton, Aubrey went on record with the following categorical statement garding Shakespeare’s alleged tering: Royal Society Literature, in Shakespeare's Plays.” knows that John collector course, of notes second half of the he gleaned re- schoolmas- Though Ben Jonson says of him that he had but little Latin and less Greek, he understood Latin pretty well, for he had been in his younger days a schoolmaster in the country. Prof. Wilson pointed out that the question of what was Shakespeare’s personal experience of schools and schoolmasters is singularly dif- ficult to answer. At all events, his references to schoo!s and pedants are so numerous as to make the theory that he had never been to school at all practically untenable. Whether he went a step farther and actually taught school himself is on a different footing. The late Dr. Smart, in “Shakespeare: Truth and Traditiou,’’ said, ‘‘No tradition can ever be implicitly relied on; but this is the best sup- ported and most credible of all;’’ and he went on to show the probability that Shakespeare as a young man had been employed as a master, or at least as an assistant, in the Stratford grammar school. Attention has often been drawn to the fact that Shakespeare’s references to schools and schoolmasters in the plays are uniformly un- favorable; but Prof. Wilson maintains that that proves nothing. for “Shakespeare would not be the first or the last to escape young from the teaching profession and never to have a good word to say of it afterwards.”’ There the question must rest. It is prob- ably incapable of proof, one way or the other. lt may, however, be said that the theory as to Shakespeare’s schoolmastering is an attrac- tive one and, if once accepted, would explain much, CUTTING OUT TECHNICALITIES. The Supreme Court of the United States has administered to counsel on both sides of the New York 7-cent fare case a rebuke that should be noted by lawyers throughout the country. The court has at last seen fit to place a check on the growing tendency of legal men to be- cloud litigation with technicalities and unim- portant or irrelevant facts which tend to make timely and equitable judgments impossible. The attorneys of the city, the transit commis- sion and the Interborough Company were told to throw away their ponderous briefs and to submit others which shall be ‘‘compact, logi- cally arranged, and free from burdensome, irrelevant and immaterial matter.” Great legal firms have plenty of young men to look up judicial precedents, and these are incorporated into briefs in wholesale lots, even though many of them shed little or no direct light upon the case at issue. It would seem that some lawyers expect the mere length of their argument to influence the courts in their behalf. Federal and State courts throughout the country would do well to follow the prec- edent set by the first court of the land in rejecting lega] documents of this kind. Prolix and irrevelant briefs represent an enormous waste of time. The Supreme Court has no time to wade through hundreds of pages to determine the gist of an attorney’s argu- ment. Excessively lengthy and confusing briefs by the thousands are filed in the courts of this country each year. The judges have neither time nor patience to peruse them. The second effect of such supert work is to deny justice to thousands who are. unable to hire attorneys to carry their case® through a series ‘of. Innu appeals. Innumerabie om ‘ | of ; of the business | developed | years. damage suits and similar cases are wun by de- fendant companies whose attorneys complicate the issues involved and extend the litigation beyond the means of the plaintiffs. The prac- tice is costly to taxpayers supporting the courts as well as to the litigants. The worst fault of legal circumlocution is that it makes falr judicial decisions increas- ingly difficult. Important issues are obscured by endless detail. Some cases, tncluding the one in question, are extremely complicated. Lawyers should not work to make them more so. It is the function of the attorney to clear the issues so that the court can get to the heart of the question. The demand of the Supreme Court for this kind of legal service in the New York case is a step in the right direction, It should have a far-reaching eifect on attorneys every wuere. BUSINESS LICENSES. The District Police Department is faced by the fact that more than 9,000 persons and business concerns are operating commercial enterprises in the city without licenses. Maj. Edwin B. Hesse, superintendent of police, bas ordered a city-wide round-up and arrest of every person who is conducting a business without legal sanction. Report of the superintendent of licenses Shows that less than 6,000 of the 14,000 persons, firms and corporations which should have obtained licenses on or prior to November l have done so. Included in the number are 700 restaurant proprietors who have failed to renew their licenses even after notification. Most of the firms concerned are merely negli- gent in renewing annual licenses, but there are some new businesses operating without ever having applied for a permit. This is a situa tion that should be checked up immediately. The current order is the second issued this mouth dealing with the lax conditions in en- forcement of the license law. Maj. Hesse points out that “it is apparent that the Com- missioners’ orders directing vigorous and mediate prosecution of these cases are not be- Ing complied with.” Precinct commanders have been given until December 1 to clean up their districts and submit complete reports. While these measures are being taken a committee is overhauling the District license which has not been revised since 1902. While the antiquated provisions of the present law furnish it or for loose enforcement, more satisfactory results will undoubtedly be obtained from the new code. It should have the support not only administrative officials of the District interests themselves, im- code, no excuse for attempts to evade but the license system is one means of protecting legiti- mate enterprises. Most of the changes relate to the equaliza- tion of license fees and the application of the for | licensing system to types of business that have last 20 rematin the District of the will in Methods during enforcement | largely the same, and a rigid administration of the measure will be essential to its success. refusul to take-up the Canadian alien issue makes cer- tain that this important matter will have the consideration it deserves. Under the Jay treaty of 1794, the Circuit Court of Appeals for New York ruled some time ago that Mary The Supreme Court’s reversal] of it Cook ' and Antonio Danelon, residents of Canada, had | the right to enter the United States at Bufilalo without passports and visas. The Supreme | Court of the United States subsequently refus- | ed to review the case. | ted The Government, how- presented a vigorous argument explain- ing the difficulties which the Department of Labor would encounter if it were not permit- to regulate the passage of persons across the Canadian border. The Supreme Court, impressed with the arguments advanced by the Government, has now consented to review the case. There are, of course, two sides to the ques- tion. Canada and the United States are neigh- bors and friends, Thousands of Canadian citi- zens, resident in border cities, choose to cross the line to work in American factories, and homes. Some Americans find work to their liking in Canada. These workers, Canadians and Americans alike, cross from one country to the other twice daily. Passpcris and visas in their case are not necessary. It is to prevent aliens, not Canadian citizens, from entering the United States that the De- partment of Labor. must regulate cross-border traffic. If the Canadian border were left open the restrictive immigration laws would break down. The law does not restrict the entry of Canadian citizens, but it does deny entry to aliens who pose as Canadians when they are not. The Jay treaty does not provide that Europeans may freely enter the United States merely by coming via Canada, ever. oftices ove oa a DIAMOND SMUGGLING. A diamond.smuggling conspiracy seems to have been uncovered in New York. The ap- prehension of a few conspirators, however, will have very little effect, if any, upon the business of diamond smuggling. Last winter a con- gressional committee held hearings upon a measure sponsored by the American Jewelers Protective Association, in which the fact was brought out that between $40,000,000 and $50,000,000 worth of cut but unset diamonds are smuggled into the United States every year. These jewels are ‘“‘run” by organized smuggling gangs who, for a fixed fee, usually 8 per cent of the value of the stones, guarantee their safe delivery in the United States. The duty upon cut stones is 20 per cent of their value, so that smuggled gems can find their way to the market at a price 12 per cont cheaper than those upon which duty is paid. Not only do the smugglers help to cheat the Government of between $8,000,000 and $10,- 000,000 in duties annually, but they have been able to put a quantity of “‘cheap’”’ gems on the market great enough to constitute severe competition with honest importers. . The jewelers’ association believes that relief is to be had only by. returning to the tariff schedule of 1909, when uncut stones were ad- mitted free and cut stones.were taxed but 10 per cent. A duty of 10 per cent, say the jewelers, would make smuggling unprofitable and would bring in larger revenues to the Government than the present 20 per cent tatiff, under which vast quantities of diamonds never come under the gaze of customs officers. The arrests in New York may break up an important smuggling ring, but probably the ‘only solution to the problem lies, as the jewel- ers suggest, in reducing the tariff on diamonds to a point where smuggling no longer will ‘ prove profitable. a - | survivors. | Standing Rock | is a bad arrangement? street signs on some of the new lamp | | posts Along Fourteenth street, | the | high that they can not be read at night | time, | the signs ' excerpt from the American continent.

DRIVER. | _-- _— are The Cause of Colds, To the Editor of The Post—sir: The the Gary Post Tribune, which appeared on the editorial’ page of The Post of November 20, is en- lightening to the extent that sick bene- fit companies are paying out 20 per cent of claims against them to clients laid up with “colds” and (so-called) grip. The advice to ventilate houses and get plenty of fresh air and exer- cise is only relatively good—a way of providing the extra intake of oxygen to burn out rubbish from one’s “inners” trat never ought to have been allowed to get in. A cold is no mystery. It is a mani- festation of nature's valiant attempt to purge the system of the by-products of edible “truck.” With the consump- tion by the people at large of senuine foodstuffs in place of vicious palate- ticklers, the sick benefit concerns—so far as paying out claims to “cold” vic- tims is concerned—would be shutting up shop for lack of new business. There would be equally as many “colds” in summertime if the skin wasn’t then working overtime. It keeps the inside “dirt” down. CIBUM. ' } Mr. Hoover and Latin America, To the Editor of The Post—Sir: On many occasions comments have been made lately regarding Latin-American public opinion with regard to the recent presidential election. It has been said that the Latin-American press was al- most unanimous in hoping for a Dem- ocratic victory. Now, while the personality of Gov. Smith and his campaign speeches have certainly found sympathizers in Latin America, it is also true that great ad- miration has been felt and expressed for Mr. Hoover; for his great achieve- ments in the past and for his clear statements of what the attitude of the United States should be toward the Latin-American nations. I might in proof of this assertion quote many im- portant South and Central American newspapers, but I will limit myself to translate a few paragraphs from an editorial in the Diarlo de Centro- America of the 30th of last August, which has been widely reproduced and commented upon: “e © * Hoover’s declarations re-: garding the foreign policies of the United States can not but meet with approval and satisfaction everywhere in States, because he has affirmed cate- gorically that they must be just and be respected; in Latin America, because ish ? that they are)’ ‘f .

This is not so: promises and speeches are worth as much as the man? who stands by them. When this man Is Herbert Hoover, nobody has the right to doubt his words. A past of honor and integrity, his whole life which shows him as the possessor of a mar- velously equilibrated intellect and of a heart whose feelings are all in favor of justice and fairness for his fellow men, are guarantees that in the event of his attaining to the Presidency of the United States, and I sincerely be- lieve that he will attain it, his govern- ment will endeavor to maintain and strengthen the ties of friendship that must unite the great Northern republic and the sovereign countries to the South ...2 +." Those lines, abstracted from a lengthy article, are signed by Senor Jose Tible Machado, one of the ac- knowledged exponents of Latin-Ameri- can culture. His opinion carries weight, as he was one of the founders of the International Court of Arbitra- tion at the Hague and is noted for his writings on international questions, These sentiments, I am sure, will be reflected in the cordial and friendly re- ception which Mr. Hoover will find in his trip of good will to Latin America. F. W. JOHNSON. Washington, November 21. They Don’t Need Uniforms. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: A few days ago I read an article in The Post suggesting that girls of the high schools wear “uniforms.” I hope the time is distant, as 1 take so much pleasure in seeing them going and re- turning from their various schools, ap- g like a huge “animated bou- quet” in their dresses of bright hues. Commenting on their dresses, could | anything be more sensible? Brevity oi skirt gives them unrestricted move- ment, and their breathing is not ham- pered by tight waists. All seem so un- | | So why the| A FLYING START. Mr. Hoover has tackled one of the most important problems which con- fronts America with a directness and swiftness which may startle the stick- lers for convention, but which will delight the nation. As a practical mat- ter he can not visit the peoples of Cen- tral and South America after he be- comes President. Upon our friendly re- lations with them depend both the peace and security of the Western World, and not less our most impor- tant overseas commerce in the years to come, says the New York Herald Tribune. By his prospective visits of good-will, Mr. Hoover can do his ad- ministration and the whole country an important service. Here its, in fact, exactly the sort of straightforward, common-sense tackling of a problem which the country ex- pected from Mr. Hoover. The next President has worked as an engineer in every continent save South America. The list of nations reads: “United States, Mexico, Canada, Australia, Italy, Great Britain, South Africa, India, China, Russia.” By rounding out his world travels before assuming office he will both perform an act of dis- tinguished courtesy to our closest neighbors and friends in the family of nations and, as well, inform himself at. first hand upon problems of eco- nomics, finance and international re- lationships of the highest moment to the development of this country. Those critics who saw in Mr. Hoover a strong man enmeshed in the nets of political convention face some severe shocks. The voters who flocked to Mr. Hoover’s support upon his record of deeds done in the simplest, most effec- tive fashion are certain to be justified in their faith.

Hard-Boiled Executives. Topeka Capital: Railroad presidents may seem hard-boiled but inwardly are in fact tender-hearted. Davies Warfield, former president of the Seaboard Air- line, by his will, left practically his entire estate of more than $5,000,000 “to found an institution for the aged in memory of his mother.” ‘There is no finer philanthropy and it is a warm- hearted man who thinks of providing for the aged. The bequest comes to public notice, however, by way of @ sult to set aside the will. Cost of an S O 8, Philadelphia Ledger: There has been some talk in the past about the abuse of the S O S, the charge being that vessels which were not in grave danger sometimes sent out the call for help. The case of the Vestris hinges upon the intimation that the captain leaned the Opposite way, delaying his S O S s0 long that disaster followed. Any captain who needlessly sent out the call would naturally suffer in repu- tation, But there is something else— the matter of expense. A letter in the ew York Times by Byron R. Newton, who speaks with a certain authority as one-time Assistant Secretary of the Treasury in charge of the Coast Guard Service and as collector of the Port of New York, bears strikingly upon the ship captain’s attitude in this connec- tion. It says: “Under maritime law, which has come down to us from antiquity, he would have sacrificed a large part of the value of his ship had he called for and ac- cepted aid of other ships in his dis- tress. -* * * When a 6shipload of human beings is caught in the mercli- less perils of the sea, the master of the ship knows that he must choose be- tween letting his ship go to the bottom or sacrifice it to other craft which come to his rescue.” a Ii will be said at once that the bal- ancing of dollars against human lives is preposterous. The suggestion is that the law governing rescues at sea be changed in order that the ship’s mas- | ter may be freed from so momentous ‘ The fate of the Vestris

S ee AMERICAN ARTISTS TRIUMPH IN FAUST THE. WASHINGTON PLAYERS IN THE “TEA TOPER TAVERN” CAST eo oes Gounod’s Great Opera Given as Farewell, Receives Ex- cellent Reading. “MARGUERITE’ WELL SUNG The farewell performance of the American Opera Company at Keith’s Theater last evening was of Gounod’s “Faust.” In many respects it was the finest presentation given by this com- pany of young singing actors during their Washington season. That ‘Faust’ is a favorite among Washington operagoers was shown by the large and socially brilliant audience This lyric drama’in four acts by the great French composer calls for the ultimate in singing, acting and in set- ting, and its requirements were satis- factorily met last night. It was pre- sented under the genera! direction of Viadimir Rossing, and under the local management of Mrs. Wilson-Greene Natalie Hall satisfied both the eve and the ear as Marguerite. She had youth, enthusiasm and a truly lovety volce as her equipment. She was an appealing child throughout, even, after the waves of sorrow were dashing at her feet. Mephtsto Given Interesting Reading. Those who remembered Georze Houston as Mephistopheles in “Faust” by the American Opera Company last year, did not find John Gurney in that role quite as notable This verdict is | mo disparagement of Mr Gurney's ex- cellent impersonation of the enemy of man. His devil role was interesting, unusual and far above the average Sut he did not make his Mephistoph- | eles the center of the stage. The role of Faust was shared by two of the company’s tenors, Patrick Killi!- xelly as “Faust the philosopher.” and Clifford Newdall, as “Faust the Cava- lier.” Mr Killikelly repeated his Mon- day night success in “Carmen” in nis brief appearance as “Faust the philoso- pher.” The innovation in the American Opera Company’s production of “Faust,” idst year, the singing of the role of Siebel by a man, instead of by a woman contralto, gave this character last night to Harold Hansen “The Flower Song” was beautifully sung by him. Allan Burt as Valentine was effective also and Brownle Peebles as ‘‘Martha” Uppman as “Wagner” count of themselves Performance Well Conducted. Prank St. Leger was the conductor The intricate orchestral accompani- ment of “Faust”"’ was well given under the skill of his baton.

A shakeup among prohibition and border patrol officers in charge of the Detroit area was being arranged yester- day at a conference at prohibition head- quarters. Prohibition Commissioners Doran, Thomas R. Stone, prohibition adminis- trator at Detroit; John R. Watkins, © United States attorney at Detroit, and castoms officials and special prohibi- tion agents were outlining changes to be made in an effort to make prohibi- tion enforcement more effective at De- troit. The action, Commissioner Doran said, resulted from generally “unsatisfactory” conditions exposed by undercover in- VYestigations which disclosed that some minor officials of the border patrol were lax in their duties, Chicago, Nov. 21 (A.P.).—Harry M. Dengler, acting chief of Federal prohi- bition agents in the Chicago district, who succeeded George E. “Hard-Boiled” Golding last August, has been recalled to Washington by Dr. J. M. Doran, Fed- eral prohibition commissioner. Detroit, Nov. 21 (A.P.).—Reports from Washington of an impending shakeup in prohibition forces in the Detroit area were received without surprise or comment in official circles here. A month ago Sumner C. Sleeper, di- rector of the customs border patrol in Detroit, announced that 30 agents had been dismissed on instructions from Washington. At that time he revealed further investigations were being made here by agents from Washington and that more men might be dismissed. Each year during the last three years there has been a reorganization in prohibition forces here in attempts to stem the flow of liquor across the Ca- nadian border. The last reorganization came in July this year. PProhibition officials have estimated that 80 per cent of the liquor smug- gied into the United States from Can- -&da crosses the border in the Detroit area and that the liquor traffic repre- sents a $50,000,000 a year industry here. St. Louis Purse Wins Balloon Race Next Year St. Louis. Nov. 21 (A.P.).—The an- nual international balloon race for the Gordon Bennett trophy will start from St. Louis next year, following a de- cision by the St. Louis Air Board to accede to the request of the race com- mittee to raise $15,000 to finance the start. Lieut. Col. John A. Pagelow, com- Mandant of Scott Field, the Army lighter-than-air base, has proffered the services of 300 soldiers to handle the Dalloons. The last international to start from St. Louis Capt. W. E. Kepner and Lieut. W. O. Eareckson, of Scott Field, won the last race, starting from Pittsburgh. balloon race was in 1904. New Comet Discovered By African Observer Cape Town, Union of South Africa, Nov. 21 ‘(A.P.).—The discovery of a new comet in the southern hemisphere by an amateur astronomer named Forbes, living at Rosebank, was reported today. ‘The observations were made last night and the discovery was confirmed early this morning. The director of the Union Observatory reported that although the comet was fairly bright it could not be seen with the naked eye and that at present it has no tail. Its position was given as “right ascension 12 hours and 9 minutes, declination 20 degrees 42 minutes south. It probably will be named after its dis- coverer.

Although this will be a short session, a number of important matters still have to come before the outgoing chamber. Among these matters are the bill giving a legal and constitu- tional status to the grand council of |FPascism, a bill for making application | of the Fascist “charter of labor” obliga- tory on all employers, a measure for an increase in workmen’s pensions and various bills for extensive public works. The passage of this government- backed legislation is looked for some time before the middle of December. The royal decree dissolving the chamber is expected some time prior to the year’s end. Before the session's close, Premier Mussolini is slated to make an important speech reviewing the work of the Fascist party as a whole and of its representatives in the chamber in particular. In the course of the coming month Mussolini will convoke the of five senators and five deputies to pass upon various matters connected with the new electoral law, under which the incoming chamber will be chosen; notably to decide which organization, syndicates, economic bodies and the like will have the right to propose tentative lists of candidates for the approval of the grand council for the chamber succeeding the present one will be presented to the country as @ single list of 400 names, to be ac- cepted or rejected en bloc by the voters.

M. Today Because of Expected Clamor for *““Whoopee” Tickets Among Admirers of Ziegfeld Shows. Queen For the first time in.the history of Washington theatricals a theater box office opens today at 6 o'clock In the morning. Attendants at the National Theater were ordered to report for duty at dawn this morning to take care of the contemplated heavy advance sale for Flo Ziegfela’s latest musical comedy, “Whoopee,” starring Eddie Cantor. “Whoopee” will open for a engagement at the National Theater Sunday night before its opening at the New Amsterdam Theater, Decem- ber 3, for a Broadway run. During the last two weeks in Pitts- burgh “Whoopee” broke all records for popularity and receipts, grossing over $100,000 with the house bought out for the engagement the day following the premiere. Ziegfeld has given Eddie Cantor every element that makes for success in the grand manner and in “Whoopee” he aims at nothing less than topping such recent hits of his own as “Rio Rita,” week's “Rosalie,” “The Three Musketeers” and “Show Boat.” Cantor has a congenial role, crowded with comedy, which even gives him 3&4 scene or two in his ever-agreeable black face. He has worked throughout with the author, Willlam Anthony McGuire; the composer, Walter Donaldson, and the lyric writer, Gus Kahn, who have delivered hit song numbers throughout. Ziegfeld has attended most of their conferences and even taken them all up to his camp in the Canadian woods vehicle for Cantor and his associates that’ he and Ziegfeld announce “has everything.” The story is laid in the West in the Indian and cowboy coyntry. When “Whoopee” opens at the Na- tional Sunday it will have cost $250,- 000 to ring up the curtain. Cantor has no legs than five famous leading women headed by = Ethel Shutta, who is featured; Frances Up- ton, Ruth Etting, Tamara Geva and Berenice Manners.

Selecting a dyeing and cleaning Plant said to be under the protection of “Scarface Ail” Capone, gang leader. in Swanson’s neighborhood, the racketers wrecked the main floor of the building with a dynamite bomb —their weapon of intimidation.

The fact that it was the closest plant located to the Swanson home was taken as an indication of gangster defiance to his threat to put a@n end to racketeers. The fight between opposing racket- eers in the cleaning and dyeing busi- mess has been waged with more bit- terness than those in other lines and Swanson’s fight undoubtedly would be opened against them. “I will put an end to racketeering,” Swanson said in his campaign and Since being elected State's attorney “Life and property are at stake and My election means that the law-abid- ing citizens want the racketeers put Out of business. “I will get a capable staff to assist me in this undertaking and 1 mean to put an end to this wave of lawless- ness.’ Detectives on the South Side were ordered today to quetsion all members of the cleaning and dyeing business !n this latest bombing, fearing it may signal the resumption of warfare be- tween opposing factions Five Lives tn Dangeer. The bomb apparently had been planted in the doorway of the clean- ing company Plate glass was shattered and woodwork ripped away by the blast. Lives of five persons, the second floor were imperiled, but all escaped uninjured Theodore Becker, owner of the plant, is the son of Morris Becker, who oper- ates a string of dyeing and cleaning companies throughout the city The elder Becker was reported to have joined Capone’s “racket” recently and since had enjoyed immunity from the bombers The younger Becker said today he recently had offered “cut” prices, which may have caused opposing rack- eteers to bomb the place.

Nov. 21 (A.P.).—Lulgi’s Restaurant was padlocked for a year today, and its proprietor, Luigi Cardi. and four waiters were fined $450 each for maintaining a nuisance. Luigi paid for all. Fach defendant also got asix months jail sentence, which was suspended during good behavior, with the stipu- lation by Federal Judge ‘“Surrows that all be placed on probation. During the trial the name of Senator Robert F Wagner, of New York, was mentioned by a Government witness, a prohibition agent, who recalled that a waiter in the restaurant had once told him the senator was the “fixer’’ of Luigi’s protection. Senator Wagner, on the stand at his Own request, characterized the story as an “absolute lie,” and the Federal prosecutor agreed that the senator was unquestionably innocent not only of wrongdoing, but of any knowledge of what went on at Luig!’s. = -- + asleep on | | | | THE WASHINGTON POST: THURSDAY, PUPILS TO TAKE PART IN RED CROSS INDIAN EXHIBIT DRIVE 10 STOP GIN Red Cross.

hae SLES ARREST THREATENED FOR MAYOR HAGUE Warrant Is to Be Issued in Jersey Contempt Case, Says Watson. ACTION IS SEEN MONDAY New Brunswick, N. J., Nov. 21 (A.P). Russell E. Watson, counsel for the leg- islature in its contempt proceedings against Mayor Frank Hague of Jersey City, announced today that the exeou- tive would be served with a warrant oi arrest before Monday. The mayor had been ordered to appear before the legis- lature in joint sssion that day to ex- plain his refusal to respond to a sub- pena issued by the Case investigating committee. Watson took this action after learn- ing from Corporation Counsel Thomas J. Brogan, of Jersey City, Hague’s legal adviser, that Brogan had been mistaken when he promised Watson yesterday that Hague would surrender himself be- fore the legislature to avoid the hu- miliation of arrest. Mayor Hague, who is Eastern vice chairman of the Democratic national! committee, was subpenaed in the Case committee in connection with its in- vestigation of his administration as Mayor of Jersey City and his acts as Democratic leader of the State. The legislative committee also has gone into the affairs of Hudson County, Demo- cratic stronghold of the State, in which Jersey City is located. Allegations of election irregularities, shush funds and extravagance were made before the investigating commis- sion, which is overwhelmingly Repub- lican. A week before the elections the mayor defied a subpena issued by the investi- gators, asserting that the summons was @ political move and that he would be glad to appear after election. A grand jury to which the mayor's | refusal was referred has not returned any indictment. Lord Byng C losing London Night Clubs Resorts Patronized by the Nobility Worried Over New Police Raids.

Nationa] Academy of Sciences, at its, concluding session today, learned ot | the progress being made toward dis- | covery of the basic causes which pre- determine the sex of every creature that is born and the intellectual differences that characterize the races of man. Presenting evidence which contra- dicted theories long advanced by an- thropologists, Dr. C. B. Davenport, di-, rector of the Department of Genetics | of Carnegie Institution of Washington, traced the menta)] differences which distinguish the white, browrf and negro races to the very genes and chromo- somes from which they spread. He first cited various hereditary physical differences among these races, such as breadth of nose, skin color and the relative curliness of hair, which are known to be predetermined by cer- tain genes communicated from parents to their young through the chromo- somes. The brown race was shown to be consistently in between the black and white in this clearly genetic scale. Against these findings, he set the results of a series of mental tests in which he compared the capacities of a number of negroes, whites and bh brids. all living on about the same social level, in the solution of various ele- mental psychological problems. In each of about 20 such tests he found the mental capacities of the races to differ in a strikingly similar manner “One may conclude,” he said. “first the’ races differ in innate mental! traits as really as they do in physical characters.

Davis Phones Berlin To End Moose Tangle (Associated Press.) The radio telephone to Europe was recently put into service by James J Davis, Secretary of Labor, who is a general officer of the Moose fraternal order, in an endeavor to help straight- en out financial tangles involving the organization’s Moosehart School in Illinols. Hugo Doebler, former comp- troller at the school, is alleged to have abseonded after occasioning losses cf between $25,000 and $100,000 in the school funds. Secretary Davis, learning Doebler was in Berlin, called him up there over the radio telephone. He refused yesterday to discuss the conversatolin, other than to state that he had urged Doebler to return.

Wilson, was held out yes- terday by Senator Waterman (Repub- lican), of Colorado, chairman of the Senate elections subcommittee. Returning to Washington yesterday, Senator Waterman said a canvass of the contest indicated there was little likelihood that the Senate would be able to act on it at this short session. This would throw the case into the hands of the new Senate, with a much larger Republican majority, which meets next year. The senator described the long-stand- ing contest as “one of the most com- plex in the history of Congress.” Bal- lots in six counties have been recount- ed by the committee, but no tabula- tion of the results has been com- pleted Senator Waterman declared that further counting and checking of the votes in the contest ar- in pros- pect.

London, Nov. 21 (A.P.).—Catherine Booth, eldest daughter of Gen, William Bramwell Booth, today told a meeting of Salvation Army women that the ill- ness of the aged commander of the or- ganization had passed the critical stage. She explained that sleeplessness still was an obstacle to his recovery. Miss Booth, who is a commissioner in the army, appeared before the forty- fourth anniversary meeting of the Women’s Social Work of the Salvation Army Princess Beatrice presided at the gathering, which was held at the Vic- toria Hotel. “My father is not out of danger al- though his illness has passed the crit- ical stage,” she said. “The doctors defin:tely have stated that his condi- tion has so improved that we have every reason to hope from this rally, that he may continue to gain ground.” She added that for a fortnight, the general had obtained only three hours sleep in each 24. The usual evening bulletin from physicians tonight said Gen. Boot: was not well as the result of sleeplessness last night. Air Mail Fire Losses Least of All Services (Associated Press.) The possibility of loss of air mail by fire was described in a statement yesterday by Acting Postmaster General W. Irving Glover as probably less than the danger to mail carried by either railroads or steamships. Because of a few isolated cases, as in Pilot Hopson’s crash on Octo- ber 17, when a large shipment of diamonds was scattered, Glover felt a mistaken idea had gained circyla- tion. In a single steamship disaster, such as that of the Vestris, he said, 1,097 sacks of mail were lost, more than the total of all mall destroyed by fire during the ten years of ali) mail service.

A suggestion that the United States Senate might take action to force of- ficials of the Electric Bond & Share Co., of New York,. to testify in the Federal Trade Commission's utilities investigation was made yesterday by Senator Norris, Nebraska Republican. The investigation was temporarily suspended following refusal of com- pany officials to produce their records or answer questions demanded by the commission, The commission had an- nounced it would resort to court action to force the officials to testify, but Norris was of the opinion that the Senate might afford more speedy re- sults than the courts.

In order to get at the bottom of the trouble in connection with interference reported locally, particularly having to do with WRC's wave length, Federal Radio Commissioner O. H. Caldwell, in charge of this zone. said yesterday that he had asked Capt Guy D. Hill U.S.A. to make a special investigation of the Situation. Capt.

Ww ASHINGTON: oT HU RSD. LY, spe? —_— NOVEMBER ost. PL PORT | 1928 BILLY SOUTHWORTH NAMED MANAGER OF CARDINAL Walker Ready To Fight in New York Kearns to Allow His Protege to Compete for Rickard. May Take on Winner of Kaplan-Ebbets Bout i in n Debut. ———--——_ - se By JACK FARRELL. Special to The Washington Post. EW YORK, Nov. 21.—Mickey VNalker, king pin of the middle- weight maulers, has decided to come out of his shell and take an active part in the weekly shindigs staged at Madison Square Garden. Teddy Hayes. official spokesman for Jack Kearns, to- cay presented himself at the office of Matchmaker Tom McArdle and an- nounced that the New Jersey mastiff was ready to take on the winner of Friday night’s bout between K. O. Phil Kaplan and Harry Ebbets some time in January Whereupon, McArdle gleefully chor- tled that Walker could have any date he pleased. for such a fight, and now it is up to Kearns and Walker to call their shot. Asked if Walker would be willing to defend his title against the winner of the Ace HudkKins-Rene DeVos fight slated for the Garden on December 10, Hayes draw more money in the Yankee Sta- dium or Polo Grounds next summer. All of which does not mean that Kearns and Rickard are ready to smoke the pipe of peace. Hayes let it be known that he will act as the middle man in whatever negotiations are carried on between this pair of ancient enemies. Every heavyweight battle staged un- der the direction of Tex Rickard this | winter will be tabbed with a $10 top. Tex declared today that the financial returns of bout lows has fully convinced him that it no longer is good ante for indoor heavyweight matches, no matter how important they seem. Jack Sharkey is coming to New with see Buckley, chief, on Friday to talk over a few matches. Richard’s first choice of op- ponents for the Boston Lithuanian is Willie Stribling, whom nobody much seems to want any part of. If Buckley raises any serious objections to such a match, Tex’s choice will be Paolino Uzcudun. He the latter part of January or early Pebruary.

Y. U. to Let Carnegie Do } ‘Unbeaten Eleven Fa- vorite, Must Defend Great Record. Violet Will Not Play Detensive Game, Says Meehan. | By GEORGE KIRKSEY | (United Press Staff Correspondent). EW YORK, Nov. 21.—Carnegie Tech has got to beat us!” That's the psychology Chick Meehan is using in preparing the New York University Eleven for Saturday's game with’ the conquerors of Notre Dame. “We're not going to play a defensive game—not by a long shot,’ Meehan said, “but the burden of proof is on Carnegie Tech, not New York Univer- sity.” Meehan isn’t worrying about the outcome of the game and his players have assumed his attitude of “just an- other game—all to gain, nothing to | lose—let Carnegie Tech worry; we're not.’ “If my players can go into the game | without any mental strain,” Meehan said, “I have no fear over the outcome. | Carnegie Tech has a lot of things to worry about—their undefeated. record, | their last game and &c. ‘They're the favorites, we're the underdogs. ‘They've got to lick us and it will be a great football game while they're doing it— if they do.” Despite the high scores rolled up by New York Unlversity in seven of its eight games, the Violets’ de- fense is on par with the offense. Since the Violets reached top form no team has been able to plerce the big, bruising N. Y. U. line with any success. Georgetown handed N. Y. U., its only defeat on a muddy fleld when a player picked up a fumble and ran 90 yards for a touchdown. The score was 7 to 2. Colgate scored a touchdown late in the game after N. Y. VU. had run up a high score and then with- |drawn its regulars. Missouri 'on a forward pass. N. U.’s plan of battle revolves around two giant tackles, Al Lasman |and Gallahad Grant, and a 190-pound | half back who has power to and speed to burn, Kenneth Strong Lassman, who weighs 210, and Grant, who welghs 209, will be counted on to stop Harold Harp- ster, Johnny Karcis and _ Let- zelter. After, or before, Meehan is particular as to that detail. Strong will be hurled at the “red brick wall” and despatched around the flanks.

Should lose, it will blow to the team, as then the could only hope for the best and ex- pect little, when the critics start rat- ing the Eastern teams about three weeks hence. Georgetown sat on top of the world following its T-to-2 victory over the powerful: New York University Team three weeks ago, but the edge was taken off that victory somewhat by the defeat of the Hilltop team a week later at the hands of Carnegie Tech, as it offered New York partisans the opportunity to say, “I told you that New York was the stronger team and that Georgetown was lucky.” What hope the Georgetown Team has of climbing back to the very -top again ts to defeat Fordham by an overwhelming score while New York U. is trouncing Carnegie at Pittsburgh, which will leave no ma- jor team of the East undefeated. Realizing that the Detroit game on December 1, will be one of the hardest games of the season, Coach Little will conserve his men as much as possible. Of the three separate backfield com- binations being groomed yesterday, all may see service against Fordham. Duplin, Barabas, Hudak and Dwyer, the same four men who have started when physically able, in practicatly every game this season, will get first call again on. Saturday. Scalzi is. pilot of the second combination which in- cludes Leary, Bozek and Schmidt, whicia is more or less of a pony backfield The third combination is composed 3i Gardener, Maczees, Mooney and Hanne- gan, with the latter calling signals. Seven men from thes’ three back field combinations are being groomed to pass, Jerry Carroll, captain of the team, who returned last week-end from Al- bany where he suffered a broken leg in the Carnegie Tech game, was on the field yesterday with the aid of crutches to lend encouragement to his team mates. Sam Cordovano, guard who plays opposite Carroll and who suffer- ed a twisted knee in the same game, is still unable to don a uniform. ‘No ‘Give’ in Scotch Line, Coach of Plaid Explains Chicago, Nov. 21 (A.P.).—Judge Walter P. Steffen, the commuting coach of Carnegie Tech, explained today why the Carnegie Scotchman defeated Notre Dame last Saturday, and in so doing he coined a new ; Seotch joke. “That .

Ask Rickey Billy Southworth, who has called to St. dinals, was very well like. in New York, Boston and Pittsburgh, where he previously had played, and the fans in each of those cities will be rooting for him to finish a good second. Billy will need their prayers, both morning and evening. He is stepping into a job that five men have held in five years to take charge of a team that has won two pennants and a world’s series and finished second once in the last three years. At first it was believed that Frank Snyder, another former Giant, who be- came a Cardinal farm boss, had the in- side track. Snyder drove Houston to a pennant in the Texas League and then resigned in a huff because the club would not pay his players certain wages they and Snyder though. vas due him. Branch Rickey, vice president and chain store supervisor of the Cardinals, was much pained at this gesture by Mr. Snyder. Mr. Rickey, like the elephant, never forgets, and when the time came to sidetrack McKechnie, Mr. Snyder got the go-by, too. There was no telling what a man like Mr Snyder might do as manager of the Cardinals. He might even stick up for his players, or even talk back to Messrs. Rickey and Breadon, like that horrid Hornsby used to do. Mr. Southworth, by the way, would better begin casting about at orice for a job in 1930. Life as a Car- dinal manager is of but a fey days and full of Rickey. been re- Cunningham’s 154 Wins Midatlantic Pro Title Special to The Washington Post.

Of} ' showers The new leader declared he would play right field if able to hit as he did at Rochester, where he batted sgbove 350. Southworth, who has had ten years’ experience and has played on five major league teams, came to the Cardinals in 1926 from the Giants and immediately was made regular right fielder by Man- ager Rogers Hornsby.

Walter Johnson Lauded At Jewish Center Fete If Walter Johnson takes seriously only about one-twentieth of the good things said about him last night, he may no longer be termed as modest. The occasion was Walter Johnson night at the Jewish Community Center, with President Clark Griffith, Trainer Mike Martin, First Baseman Joe Judge, Shortstop Bob Reeves and Director of Athletics at Georgetown Lou Little be- ing among ,those to sing the new Nat leader’s praises. Fred Pelzman was chairman of the committee in charge with the trrepressible Jimmy Lake master of ceremonies in the Cafritz Auditorium that was filled to capacity. Wesley Eddy and Gil.

Gordon, living in Hyattsville, was one of the most versatile athletes ever to attend Central and a successful career in professional baseball had been pre- dicted for him. He was a fine fielder, exceptionally fast, and @ hard hitter. {n football at Central, Gordon was cap- tain of the team, a hard runner whose speed carried him to many long gains. He specialized in the sprints in track and was among the outstanding dash men of his time. With the Wilkes-Barre Club last sea- son, Gordon batted for .290 in 67 games for an impressive total of 90 bases. COLONIALS WANT GAMES, pall o Vl At fats PYLE PME RO RE.

Although it is a minor league meeting, the other major league magnates will be on hand, and the Washington Club bosses say that a number of trades are likely to be maue and they want to be on hand in the hope of picking up another seasone:l pitcher and possibly an experienced in- fielder. Both Johnson and Griffith are satis- fied with the catching and outfield de- partments, and believe that they have good infield talent from which to pick men for these positions, although @ sea. soned infielder might come in handy, but they are most anxious to bolstéi- 1) their mound staff.

Central Lights Defeat Western by Fumble, 6-0 A fumbled punt in the first three minutes of play was capitalized by the Central High School lightweights yes- terday and resulted in a 6 to 0 victory over the Western High lightweight eleven at Central Stadium. Veers, Western safety man, failed to hold Sheedy’s 40-yard boot and Gough, Central end, recovered the ball over the goal for a touchdown shortly after the start of play. Spain missed the. kick for the added point. Thereafter the teams waged an even battle except for a few minutes in the third period, when Meyers ran 20 yards to the West- ern S-yard line, where the latter he'd for downs.

a EE 6.0, WALSOW AAMED EW EXCHNGE END Liberty National Bank’s President Succeeds Charles C. Glover, Jr. MOST STOCKS MOVE UP By ROBERT C. ALBRIGHT. George O. Walson, president of the Liberty National Bank, and for many years treasurer of the Washington Stock Exchange, yesterday was elected to succeed Charies Carroll Glover, jr., president of that body, at the annual meeting of the exchange in the Ameri- can Security & Trust Co. Building. The new president, who becomes the twentieth executive to preside over the local stock market since its organization nearly a half century ago, has long played a prominent role in Washing- ton’s world of finance. Taking the chair, he commented on the _ recent growth in exchange trading, and pre- dicted a new era of activity. Edward L. Hillyer, vice president of the Union Trust Co., was reelected vice president of the exchange and C. J. Gockeler, vice president of the District National Bank, was again named secre- tary. Laurence A. Slaughter, vice president of the Commercial National Bank, was elected to succeed Mr. Wal- son as treasurer. Two members of the board of gov- ernors, Eugene E. Thompson, of Crane, Parris & Co., president of the Associated Stock Exchanges, and Mr. Gockeler, were reelected to succeed themselves for three-year terms; and Mr. Glover, the retiring president, was elected to fill the place of Mr. Walson on the board. The latter becomes a member ex-officio. The annua] meeting was marked by the largest attendance in the history of the exchange. Among the veteran members present, who had not attended for years, were Charles, Jacobsen, L. L. Thompson and John W. Brawner. Al- bion. K. Parris, former president'of the body, and well known for his history of the local trading unit, was present. W. B. Hibbs, who has served seven terms as president at intervals since 1899, and who daily takes an active part in the trading, also answered the roll call. The retiring president, before hand- ing the gavel to Mr. Walson, thanked the members for the cooperation he had received during his two years as chairman, and in turn received a vote of thanks from the membership for his efforts in their behalf. Mr. Thomp- s0mn was reelected chairman of the board of governors at a session fol- lowing the meeting. Mergenthaler Moves Up. Mergenthaler Linotype, on the strength of an extra dividend of 50 cents declared Tuesday. advanced: frac- tionally to 101% and 101%, in trading which preceded the annual meeting of the stock exchange. Security Savings & Commercial Bank soared 21 points +O @ high of 501, and American Secur- ity and Trust Co. moved forward more than @ point to 45314. National Mort- zage & Investment preferred advanced AS | Other issues displaying firmness were District National at 102; National 405; Capital Traction Co., ton Monotype, 118; Riggs Bank warrants, 315.

Credit problems, the speaker said. can readily be solved through “our new financial system,” consisting of the uni- fication of all commercia! banks through the Federal Reserve system and of the mobilization of capital and the strengthening of corporation finances through the operation of a greatly ex- panded investment banking system. “Don’t be a bear on America,” he said. “The best investment that I know of is the United States of America While theorists have been dreaming of alleged business cycles and periodic panics and normal reactions, America has been forging ahead regardless Our prosperity has traveled right along without stopping at the way stations where trade reactions were due. It has ignored the depressions called for by the business cycle theorists. “America’s wealth, already totaling $400,000.000,000, is increasing at the rate of 5 per cent annually, and this means a yearly gain of $20,000.000.000 How much is $20,000.000,000? No one knows; but what we do know is that this annual increase exceeds the entire wealth of the United States as of the day Lincoln was inaugurated. Of this about one-half, or $10.000,000.000 rep- resents the annual savings of the Amer- ican people, while the other half repre- Sents the unearned appreciation of property values. “Our industries. respectively, are showing this same progress. The physi- cal production of American business is growing by 3 per cent per annum: railway traffic expands 6 per cent an- nually; chain store sales, 15 per cent: building and construction, 16 per cent: electric current production. 12 per cent; automobile production shows an annual growth of 20 per cent So it is that the pivotal principle of sound in- vestment is to buy progress.” Mergenthaler Shows Gain. Notwithstanding the continued hesi- tant conditions of business in the do- mestic market, which have affected particularly the companies serving the printing and publishing industry. a net gain from all sources of $1,903.113 99 was shown last year by the: Mergen- thaler Linotype Co., according to the annual report of President Phillip Tell Dodge before yesterday’s stockholders meeting in New York. Edward J. Mc- Quade, of the Liberty National Bank who attended the session as a director considers the report the best ever is- sued by the company. During the year cash dividends amounting to $1,536,000 were paid to stockholders. Extensive construction proses in Brooklyn and Chicago have een carried out without borrowings without issuance of securities and with- out interruption of regular and extra dividends according to the report. Total current assets ‘were reported at $13,177 007.84, and current liabili‘ies at $2.918.09 The company Is at pres- ent without indebtedness except for minor current bills. gveeeunee of ill health. President Philip ‘Dodge was obliged to tender his nl at yesterday’s meeting, and Norman Dodge was elected to -.ucceed him.

Gough, deputy Comptroller of Currency. last night addressed the Dis- trict of Columbia Conference of Bank Auditors and Comptrollers at a meet- ing at the University Club. He spoke on “The Relation of the Auditor to the Bank and the National Bank Examiner ” A number of bank presidents and delegates to the new auditors’ section of the District of Columbia Bankers Association attended Will Increase Capital Stock. The Washington office of the Guar anty Co. of New York announced last night that the firm has taken corporate proceedings to increase the capital stock from $5,000,000 to 69,000,000 When this becomes effective, a stock dividend of $4,000,000 will be declared out of the company’s surplus and re- serve accounts. As the Guaranty Trust Co of New York owns all of the stock | of the Guaranty Co. of New York the dividend will be paid to the Guaranty Trust Co of New York. WIDE SELLING HALTS WILD PRICE UPSWING | CONTINUED FROM PAGE 14. — call freely turnover was a sign of what distribution, which, translated means stocks have been moving from strong into weak hands. This may be true, but even so, it is no sure sign that a break or an important technical recession is in the offing. Long observers of the market claim that, after all, the outside public in long run controls security prices and if it is still willing to hold the stocks it has bought aud buy more and they backs, the market will nold up in spite | of polls and theso-called big interests Of course, everybody realizes that a | turning point must come some time, | possibly very soon and possibly not for | months. Already hundreds of traders | who have hazarded guesses as to the| nearness of the turn and acted accord- | ingly have lost tremendous amounts of | money Although the stock exchange author- ities stuck to their guns in saying nothing today about what they are planning to do, traders generally took | it for granted that the special meeting | called for tonight is partly for the purpose of discussing Saturday closing Some brokers Oppose such a measure feeling that Saturday closing last spring | had a good dea! to do with killing of the bull market then.

American-La France and Foamite Core poration is the leading manufacturer in the United States of motor. fire engines, towers, aerial trucks, chemical engines and various types of fire-fight- ing and safety devices. Late in 1927, in order to enlarge its sphere of operae- tions, the company made a marketing contract with General Motors Truck Corporation under which medium-sized fire-fighting apparatus will be- placed on the market.

HS =: PLANS FOR 24 TUBERCULAR SCHOOL APPROVED BY Favors Establishment of San- itarium; Members to Fight for Appropriation. GROUNDS IMPROVEMENT ACTION IS POSTPONED Colored Officials Argue Against Use of Business High for Young Pupils. | | The Board of Education at a meet- | Ing yesterday in the Franklin School gave its indorsement to the plan to provide 24-hour care and “sr tubercular school children. Upon notion of Mrs. Henry Gratton Doyle the board went on record as especially favoring the establishment of a sana- torlum for this purpose. Dr. Frank W. Ballou, superintendent of schools, declared there was an im- mediate need for 24-hour treatment of tubercular school children Members of the board plan to give their utmost cooperation with officials of the Asso- ciation for the Prevention of Tuber- culosis in an effort to obtain from Congress an appropriation to put the plan into effect. The boatd deferred action until its next meeting on the recommendation of its building and grounds commit- tee calling for the expenditure of ap- proximately $65,000 of the $100,000 ap- propriation from Congress for use in fencing the grounds around eight schools and the general improvement of grounds around eighteen others It is expected, however. that the recommendation for school improve- ments will be approved when the board meets December 5. The buildings and grounds committee recommended that fences be placed around the grounds of the Brightwood, Truesdell, Arm- strong, Lovejoy, New Bell, Bruce, Bur- roughs and Bancroft Schools. Grading Is Recommended Grading and general improvement of the grounds around the Woodridge, Hine Junior High, Brightwood, Trues- dell, Armstrong, Lovejoy, Thomson, Stuart Junior High, New Bell, Randall Junior High, Whittier, Bruce, Bur- roughs, Bancroft, Mott, Western High, Reservoir and Janney Schools also was recommended. Another subject regarded as of the utmost importance but which was de- ferred until the next meeting of the board was the question of what dis- position will be made of the Business High School following its abandonment after the new Business High School 1s erected on the grounds at Thirteenth and Uushur streets northwest. The two proposals considered by the board are, first, its use as an elementary school for colored pupils to relieve the congestion in schools in this commun- ity, and, secondly, its use as a combined vocational and Americanization school. The Rev. F. I. A. Bennett, Dr. Hay- den Johnson and Mrs. William McNeill, colored members of the board, yester- day served notice they would oppose the: use of the Business High School as a colored elementary school because of the lack of playground space at the school and the fact that its location is dangerous to the Safety of young children. A letter from Miss G. R. Simpson, teacher in the colored high schools, asking the board to oppose a contin- uance of the alleged practice of solicit- ing among teachers of the colored schools funds for testimonials and ban- quets for colored school officials, was held over for investigation and re- port by the committee on complaints, of which Dr. Johnson is chairman. Announcement from the District Commissioners that the Loehler Con- struction Co. had been awarded the contract to build the new sixteen-room Langdon School, with combination hall and gymnasium, at a bid of $261,300, was approved, as were the announce- ments that a site at First and M streets southwest had been purchased for $40.- 000 for the new Bell and Cardozo Schools, and that the old Condult Road School had been turned into a branch school library. Resolutions received from the Colum- bia Heights Citizens Association urging that the Central High School Stadium be turned into a playgrounds outside of school hours, and that the board give its cooperation in obtaining the use of certain streets in the Mount Pleasant section as play space for school children in this section, were turned over to Dr. Ballou for action. The following dates were announced for graduation exercises for midyear classes at the following schools: Wilson Normal School, January 31, 8 p. m.; Business High School, 2-year, January 30, 10 a. m.; 4-year, January 30, 8 p, m.; Central High School, Jan- uary $1, 8 p. m.; Eastern High School, 2-year, January 30. 8 p. m.; 4-year, January 31, 8 p. m.; McKinley High School, January 31, 8 p. m.; Western High School, January 31, 1 p. m.; Arm- strong High School, January 30, 8 p. m.; Cardozo High School, February 1, 8 p. m.; Dunbar High School, January 31, 8 p. m.

Accused of fraudulent use of the mails to promote a stock-selling plan, Gorham Tufts, jr. and Charles Warde yesterday were held by United States Commissioner Needham C. Tur- nage in $2,000 bail each for a hearing in the United States District Court of New York City on December 1. Warde surrendered to a deputy United States Marshal in front of Com- missioner Turnage’s office before the proceedings. Tufts was arrested last week on a warrant sworn out by postal authorities. | The two are alleged to have been connected with the Atlantic Utilities Corporation, which maintained offices at 1430 K street northwest.

S. Breaks Its Own Rules by Not Providing One. ee ee ee. Maj. Gen. C. C. Hammond upbraided | the National Government for not pro- | viding for an armory for the District militia at a dinner given last night in the Hamilton Hotel by the Veterans of | Foreign Wars of the District in honor | of their new commander-in-chief, Lieut. | Eugene P. Carver, jr., of Boston. “It is a crying shame,” Maj. Gen. Hammond declared, “that the District | hasn't an armory. Before the Federal | Government will recognize a State na- tional guard, it requires the State to erect an armory for housing the guards- | men, and yet it doesn’t follow its own | regulations.” Gen. Hammond's remafks followed a short speech by Maj. Gen. Anton Stephan outlining his unavailing strug- gle over the past twenty years to se- cure an armory. Gen. Stephan said two senators had balked his efforts at the last session of Congress, but he hoped for better results tn the future. | Gen. Stephan hopes to convert the Pension Office into an armory for the | militia headquarters for all veteran or- | ganizations. Col. G. E. Ijams, assistant director of the Veterans’ Bureau, and another | honor guest at the dinner, stressed the | necessity for an adequate national de- | fense. The work of the veterans is not | finished when they have secured provi- | sions for their disabled brothers, he | said: “It is the duty of every former | service organization to insist that bis country be adequately prepared,” he | said. “No one who has been through a war wants to see another, but no one knows better than the former service man what it is to get into another war with ‘Quaker guns and broomsticks’ to fight | with. You are not stopping war by do- | ing away with the police force,” he! added. Lieut. Carver outlined to the veter- ans some of the plans for his adminis- tration. This fell in line with his visit yesterday with President Coolidge dur- ing which he presented an outline of the program adopted by the Veterans ol Foreign Wars for the coming year. By his visit, Lieut. Carver sought to direct the President’s attention to the need of rescinding or amending the “service connection” clause in the World War Veterans’ act which he says has kept a large number of disabled vet- erans from benefiting under the act be- cause they cannot prove their disabili- ties grew out of their service. Out of Work, III, Man, 65, Ends Life Harvey L. Stephens Found Dead in Gas-Filled Room by Lodger. Believed to have been despondent over his ill health and unemployment, Harvey Lee Stephens, 65-year-old for- mer employe of the Catholic University, yesterday morning was found dead in his gas-filled room at 231 Fourteenth street northeast, with a gas tube in his mouth. He was pronounced dead by Dr. Louls Pimel, of Casualty Hospital, who was summoned along with the fire rescue squad. His body was removed to the District Morgue. Stephens is believed to have many relatives in Washington, but up until a late hour last night the police had been unable to locate any of them. A Sister, Bessie Garrison, is said by the police to reside somewhere in the Southeast section of the city, and it is understood that Stephens has a wife and eight children here. His fully clothed body was found by Henry L. Emerich. a roomer at the. Fourteenth street house. when he investigated an odor of gas he had detected. Fmerich summoned Policeman W. J. Matthews, who called the fire rescue squad and ambulance. According to police a glass, believed to contain poison, was found in Stephens’ room, but itis not thought that the man had taken any. Musician Is Given Year For Transporting Rum Frederick O. Rinker, a musiciam of this city, was sentenced yesterday be- fore a judge of the United States Dis- trict Court in Baltimore to a year and a day in the Federal Penitentiary. at Atlanta for transporting and possessing liquor. Rinker pleaded guilty. Besides the imprisonment, Judge Morris A. Soper fined him $500 and costs.

HORAK ASKS GRANGE TO AI FARM BILLS Calls on Organization to Work for Special Session: Kel- logg Pact Backed. THORPE TALKS ON NEEDS A special session of Congress to con- sider farm relief legislation was urged by Senator William E. Borah, of Idaho. | yesterday in. an address before the Na- tional Grange, in the Willard Hotel. He asked to support the proposition. Borah does not believe that convention at Senator a solution of the problem can be reached at the | coming session, “This recent campaign,” “has placed all men holding public office in a position where they must take hold of the farm problem and do their best to solve it There is no escape from the obligation under- taken. Both parties declared tn thelr platforms for some relief measure.” Turning to the Kellogg peace treaty the senator expressed the hope that the Senate will ratify the pact at the coming session. International peace ls a particular concern of the farmers, he said. Louis J. he Taber, national the grange, in thanking the senator for his grange address, pledged that body's support to the treaty Mr. Taber also assured Senator Borah that the grange will support any work- able relief measures for agriculture At the night session, Mr. Taber read a letter from Herbert Hoover, thanking the grange for its telegram sent last week congratulating him on his vic- tory in the presidential election. The letter, addressed to Mr. Taber, reads as follows: “I wish to thank you for your tele- gram conveying the resolution of the National Grange. I would be greatly indebted to you if you would transmit to your collegues my appreciation for their congratulations and good wishes. “And may I add my gratitude to you for the fine support and friendship which you have given over these many years.” master of United Session Held. The grange united with the Assocta- tion of American Land Grant Colleges for its afternoon session. The latter body earlier in the day Mstened to an address by Merle Thorpe, editor of the Nation’s Business Magazine. Thorpe flayed “sectional jealousy and antago- nism,” which, he said, was one of the most’ serious obstacles in the way of a solution to the agricultural problem. “The idea is widely prevalent,” he said, “that the East is a region of belch. ing smokestacks and the West a region of waving corn. The myth that the in- dustrial East is arrayed against the agricultural West has bred suspicion and animosity. “The fact is that the industrial East is one of oyr most prolific agricultural sections and the agricultural West the seat of thriving industries. “Moreover, the farm as a producing unit follows the same econamic road as the factory. The farmer feels the ef- fects of supply and demand and faces the same problems of competition, the struggle for markets and overproduction as the manufacturer. Scores Sectional Feeling. “The appeal of sectionalism,” Thor continued, “has kept more dead issues alive in this country than any other device in the demagogue’s bag of tricks. There is a farm problem, but it Is made up of many different farm prob- lems with the distress areas shifting from crop to crop from year to year. “Let us recognize that, as a nation we must try to find solutions for these roblems. But to throw fagots on the ires of sectional jealousy is not the way to a solution. Agriculture and in- dustry are each dependent upon the other, the speaker said in conclusion. Officers and delegates to the Na- tional Grange convention will be en- tertained tonight at dinner at the Con- gressional Country Club as guests of Assistant Secretary of Agriculture Dun- lap.

He called special at- the membership Jerome Lightfoot as chairman of committee on charities and corrections and Mrs.-H. G. Doyle as vice chairman of the membership committee. “He did this,” Havenner's statement said, “because he wishes to see the women delegates to the federation take an active part in all of its affairs.” Charles I. Stengle, one of Havenner’s supporters, and a leader in the pro- company merger faction, was rewarded with the chairmanship of the commit- tee on fiscal] relations, a post held last year by H. K.
