A vagrancy law “with teeth in it” is one of the more important pieces of local legislation Congress will be called upon to pass during the present ses- sion, Representative Frederick N. Zihl- man, of Maryland, chairman of the House District committee, declared yes- terday. Senator Arthur Capper, of Kansas, chairman of the Senate District com- mittee, has promised to push through the Senate the drastic vagrancy law proposed at the last session of Congress And, with the enactment of this legislation, Maj. Edwin B. Hesse, super- intendent of police, plans to open a campaign designed to rid: the city of all loafers and undesirables and prose- cute most vigorously all vagrants who may defy his edict to “get out of town.” The city’s present vagrancy law was enacted nearly 20 years ago. During the years that have followed many of its provisions have been declared un- constitutional, until, at time, the it now the present law as stands is ; practically valueless for police purposes. Chairman ZihIman said. Organizations Approve Bill. Maj. Hesse. supported in his plea for a new vagrancy law by the District Commissioners, Board of Trade and other local organizations, declared that the proposed legislation would enable him to rid the city of the hundreds of undesirables and social parasites of all forms who prey upon dents and visitors Capital. Drastic vagrancy legislation Is needed particularly during inaugurations, pa- rades, community celebrations and at ali large gatherings, when pickpockets and confidence men reap a harvest rom the celebrants, Maj. Hesse said. “There are many known criminals who make it a practice to follow large gatherings.” Hesse pointed out, “but the present law is inadequate for the police to make a case of vagrancy against them in court. About the easiest way to beat a charge of vagrancy u.ider present regulations is tor the offender to exhibit a roll of bills in court. Under present conditions it matters not where or how the offender came into posses- sion of his money just so long as he ts able to show it to the court.” Under the provisions of the proposed Vagrancy act all persons convicted of vagrancy would bé imprisoned for a pe- riod of not more than 90 days. A jail sentence following conviction would be mandatory under the pro- posed act except in one instance The court, in its discretion, could permit a person so convicted to give bond in an amount of not less than $100 or .nore than $500. conditioned upon his future industry and good conduct for a period of one year and the punishment would not be imposed during faithful observ- ance of this condition Bill Furthermore, the defendant, in order to successfully defend a charge of va- grancy, would have to prove satisfac- torily by testimony other than his own that he had made reasonable efforts to ‘obtain employment at reasonable prices for his labor and had failed.

Some of the observers believed that this indi- cated there was nothing more alarm- ing in his majesty's condition than in the past two days. The evening bulletin, signed by Lord Dawson of Penn, Sir Stanley Hewett Sir E. Farquhar Buzzard and Sir Hum- phrey Rolleston, said: “A slight improvement in his ma- Jesty’s condition noted this morning nh maintained. His temperature is near normal, but it is necessary to emphasize that the anxiety concerning the heart still persists.” The temperature, to which this an- mouncement alluded, was given in the 10:30 a. m, bulletin as 99.8. The morn- ing bulletin also said that the King had three hours of “quieter sleep” and that there had been a slight improve- ment in his general condition. The fact that the monarch was ob- taining some quiet sleep was consider- ed favorable and it was hoped that this, combined with whatever measures the doctors could take to strengthen the heart, might enable the patiént to sur- mount the crisis. Queen Mary, for the first time since the King became ill, failed to take her usual drive this afternoon. It was un- derstood she had been up the greater part of the night and those around her urged that she should get some sleep during the day in order to keep a strength through the heavy or- eal. Queen Shows Fortitude. Her Majesty was said to be bearing up with the greatest fortitude. She has been paying constant visits to the sick chamber although she has taken no part in the actual nursing of her hus- band. This has been done by six trained nurses from London hospitals. There was a constant stream of vis- itors at Buckingham Palace today, the physicians appearing at frequent in- tervals. Several members of the cab- inet called, Sir William Joynson-Hicks, the home secretary, entering the/pal- ace twice during the day. Just be- for his second visit he made a speech at the Constitutional Club’s luncheon, in which he said that a feeling of “great hope” was coupled with the anxiety. “Il don't want to deceive you and say the illness is over or anything of the kind,” he continued, “things were serious at the palace last night. I was there this morning and there was undoubtedly a feeling in the air that his majesty was better today than yes- terday. We‘can only hope the shade of improvement continues and his con- stitution enables him to pull through the weakness which must occur, after such an illness. King Is Praised. “The shadow which hangs over me is almost a personal one because 1 am brought into close personal touch with the king 1 can not conceive it possible in the whole wide world to find a constitutional monarch more devoted to his work and more ade- quately carrying out the dutjes of a constitutional monarch than the pres- 6nu sovereign.” The repeated visits which the physi- cians paid to their patient were prob- ably necessitated in a great measure by the administering of heart stimu- lants, rather than because of any espe- cially alarming symptoms. The even- ing bulletin was timed as of 8:15 p. m., and as the doctors generally have been arriving at the palace about 7 p. m. or later, no great delay in agreeing on the wording of the announcement was evi- cent. While the thoughts of the public and of officialdom were mainly at the pal- ace, all eyes were turned in the direc- tion of South Africa and the Indian Ocean to watch the home speeding of the Prince of Wales and the Duke of Gloucester.

DIVER RESCUER DROWNS Rio Janeiro, Dec. 3 (A.P.).—Brazil’s day of celebration for its home-coming pioneer of the air was plunged abrupt- ly into sorrow by a disaster which claimed fifteen lives. Fourteen persons, including five leaders of the Demo- cratic party. died when the hydroair- plane Santos Dumont plunged into the harbor this morning. The name of a diver was added to the count when his air lines fouled while he was at- tempting to recover the bodies. One of the mechanics on the plane had been flung out, but he died at a hospital a little after he was picked up by a launch. The airplane was raised this evening, and all of the bodies were recovered. Each was found to have suffered broken bones and many contusions before death by drowning. The Democratic party was dealt a serious blow by the loss of five of its leaders. Another prominent Democrat, Dr Francisco Souza, gave up his seat in the plane just before it took off to Mrs. Abel de Araujo, wife of a mem- ber of the staff of the Journal do Brazil. She was the only woman in the party. Besides her husband, the other pas- sengers were Maj. Edouardo Ballo, Frederico Olivera Coutinho, Prof. Pablo de Castro Mata, Fernandino Labouriau Filho, Prof. Tobias Moscosco, Leonidio Ribero, and Deputy Amaury de Ma- deiros. The pilots were A. W. Paschen and R. Enet. The mechanics were Butzke Hassedolf and W. Autk. These four were employes of the Kondor Syndicate,; which owned the plane. Because the reception to Alberto Santos-Dumont had been organized by the Democrats. an opposition party, the government had refused to take an official part in the welcome. Several newspapers yesterday said that the administration also had deemed it unpolitic in view of the ap- proaching visit of Mr. Hoover to call official attention to the world that the Brazilians consider Santos-Dumont to have been the first. inventor of the first successful heavier-than-air ma- chine, antedating even the Wright brothers. Santos-Dumont, returning to his na- tive land from France, where he had spent much of his life, requested that all festivities be cancelled because of the accident. Coast Guard Fined $1 For Government Fraud Jacksonville, Fla., Dec. 3 (A.P.).— Jack © Brandt, 35, a member of the United States Coast Guard, today was fined $1 in Federal Court after pleading guilty to a charge of defrauaing the Government of the cost of 712 gallons of gasoline at New Brandt appeared before Judge Lake Jones in his Coast Guard uniform. “This is one of the most remarkable cases 1 have ever seen,” Judge Jones remarked; “a man wearing the uniform of this country comes up and pleads guilty.

The duke’s race will be fraught with difficulties, but like his brother, the Prince of Wales. he never gives ground at obstacles.

Maryland, Dec. 3 (U.P.).—-Herbert Hoover left the Gulf of Guayaquil behind him tonight as the gray flagship of the Pacific fléet entered Peruvian waters, crulsing steadily southward along the place from which Francisco Pizarro started his conquest of Peru in 1531. - Bent on a mission of good will far different from the goal set by the con- queror of three centuries ago, the President-elect will get his first glimpse of continental Peru when the battle- ship Maryland approaches the head- lands and grim cliffs of Talara and Negritos. The flagship of the Peruvian navy, Almirante Grau, raced silently along on the starboard side of the Maryland, leading the American vessel past the gently curving coastline to Callao, port of Lima. The Almirante Grau, commanded by Capt. John Armstrong Abbott, a mem- ber of the American naval mission, was named for the hero of the War of the Pacific. When the Hoover party arrives at Callao, 10 miles from the capital, there will be submarines, torpedoboats and other government and private vessels ready to receive them. Al] ships will be in full dress.

At Ancon ten | more planes will join the escort, ac- cording to official plans for the recep- tion. Plans for a stop at Antofagasta, Chile, after leaving Gallao, probably will be announced Monday.

STATE EVIDENCE STRONG Testimony which tended to show that Hugh L. McDaniel, 27 years old, of Takoma Park, Md., on trial in the Rockville Circuit Court on a charge of robbery of the Silver Spring National Bank, was unable to see sufficiently well to have committed the crime and that he did not visit the bank the day previous as charged by the prosecution, was introduced last night by the de- fense. Miss Helen M. Kessler, of Takoma Park, Md., who admitted that she cared a good deal for McDaniel, and her brother, L. J. Bennett, jr.. also of Ta- koma Park. testified that McDaniel rode to Eleventh street between G and H streets- northwest with them in the brother’s car, and that he alighted from the car. at about five minutes of 8 o’clock on the Friday morning previ- ous to the robbery. Dr. Leo F. Steinel, in charge of the Baltimore regional office for eye, ear and throat of the U. 8S. Veterans’ Bu- reau of Fort McHenry, testified that McDaniel could only see at one and one-fifth feet what the normal eye could see at 500 feet. He declared that McDaniel could see a moving human figure at a distance of 2 or 3 feet, but that at 10 or 15 feet it would be so hazy as to be indistinguishable. In cross-examination of Sergt Earl H. Burdine, who arrested McDaniel. the de- fense brought out that Burdine struck McDaniel at the time of the arrest and took his glasses from him. Burdine said that McDaniel was pressing his hand where he had a seal ring so hard that it hurt, and that he struck him with the flat of his hand. Police Burdine and Sergt. Guy L. Jones told Submit Evidence, of which is exported to the United States.

The’ swarthy, bespatted, natthly dressed Nate went back to the mond Street Jail tonight after Banton curtly refused to reduce his $100,000 bail to $10,000, as was done in the case of A. C. “Titanic” Thomas. “Ray nond is not out « yet?" Banton remarked. “These wit- nesses who refuse to talk are going to be held in fail until the trial, at least.” Raymond's fate was shared by Sid- ney Stajer, Rothstein's crony, who for & moment started to talk today, then had his mind changed for him by his new attorney, David H. Slade, and went back to his Brooklyn cell as silent as before. Banton could not conceal his cer- tainty of obtaining convictions for the murder, although he refused to talk for publication because his rosy opti- mism might be construed as an at- tempt to influence the grand jurors. Only the report that George A. Mc- Manus, now held ithcommunicado in the Tombs awaiting indictment, had announced an alibi defense, stirred the district attorney to comment, “In the preparation -«f this case we have considered every possible loop- hole, alibi defense and every other possible defense, and we have plugged every one,” Banton insisted.

+ BALOWIN ANSWERS, BRITTEN DIRECTLY Reply to Naval Parley -Pro- posal to Be Laid Before House Committee. OPENS WAY TO NEGOTIATE By ALBERT W. FOX, Unexpected action by Prime Minister Baldwin of Great Britain has given added importance and international recognition to the proposal of Chair- man Britten, of the House naval affairs committee, for an Anglo-American re- sumption of negotiations respecting limitation of naval armaments. The British premier has disregarded prece- dents discussed on Saturday by Secre- tary Kellogg and Sir Esme Howard, the British Ambassador, and has sent a di- rect reply to Mr. Britten. The Baldwin reply reached Mr. Brit- ten yesterday. It will be submitted to the House naval affairs committee this morning and then made public. It does not specifically indorse the idea of a parliamentary conference in Canada Which Mr. Britten suggested, but it does support the idea of a resumption of negotiations between the two gov- ernments and is regarded by Mr. Brit- ten as opening wide the gate for Presi- dent Coolidge and Secretary Kellogg to @rrange for an early resumption of ne- gotiations. Although the Baldwin telegram may be described as a personal message, it is nevertheless an official communication which bears the caption “government message” and was dispatched at 10:47 a. m. yesterday. Reiterates Former Message. It is a reiteration for the most part of the message which Baldwin sent to the British Ambassador here for sub- mission to Secretary Kellogg before de- livering it to Mr. Britten. Mr. Kellogg declined to act as the medium for transmitting the message and Sir Esme Howard is understood to have informed Mr. Baldwin of Secretary Kellogg's views. President Coolidge himself es- tablished the precedent which the United States Government follows when he declined to reply to an open letter from former Premier Clemenceau of France on the subject of debts in ‘August, 1926, the President explaining that reply could only be made through recognized diplomatic channels. It is ‘assumed here that Sir Esme Howard fully explained the American position to Mr. Baldwin before the latter sent his direct reply yesterday morning. The Baldwin message is therefore regarded here as a deliberate assertion \of Great Britain’s desire to express its viewpoint to the American Congress jand the American people without em- Ploying the usual medium of the [American State Department. Pub- lished intimations that Secretary Kel- ‘logg informed Sir Esme Howard that ithe United States Government had no objections to direct communication ‘from Mr. Baldwin to Mr. \incorrect, as no such intimation was conveyed. It was partly because of this ithat the British Ambassador did not himself convey the Baldwin message ‘to Mr. Britten, thus making it neces- \sary for the British Prime Minister to resend the message direct to Mr. Brit- ten from London. Kellogg Silent on Situation. Secretary Kellogg declined to dis- uss the Baldwin message and officials lof the State Department are not at- jtempting to discount the irregularity of the proceeding. It is conceded in ‘diplomatic circles that the British Prime Minister has risked the dis- pleasure of the executive branch of the (government and has materially assisted Mr. Britten in his one-man campaign ito exert congressional pressure on the jexecutive in a matter within the pre- rogatives of the latter branch of the government. But Baldwin has had to consider ‘public opinion in Great Britain, diplo- jmats explain, and British opinion is at the moment more inclined to sup- \port Mr. Britten’s proposal to resume negotiations than Presidents Coolidge’s ‘program of building cruisers as out- jlined in the President’s Armistice Day speech. On the other hand, President Cool- \ldge has made it clear since his Arm- istice Day speech that he was willing jto consider any proposals coming from \responsible British statesmen relative to resumption of negotiations. But ‘\this implied overtures made to the ‘United States Government, it is ex- 'plained, and not overtures made to members of Congress. Thus, if Mr. Baldwin should make the same over- jtures to the United States Government which he has made to Mr. Britten and 'give some assurance that the British government would really attempt to Teach an agreement acceptable to |America,- the present deadlock over maval arms limitation would admittedly ‘goon disappear. Gate Open, Britten Holds, The Baldwin telegram to Britten Is couched in the most friendly terms and contains about 200 words. The |British Premier states that he appre- ciates the spirit of the Britten offer for an interparliamentary conference and likewise appreciates its sincerity and reciprocates in like spirit.

The working of exterior forces may affect Watson’s chances. There seems to be no doubt in local political circles that if.Curtis does re- sign the present Governor of Kansas would name Tincher to the Senate. while the governor-elect, taking office January 1, would name Allen. The President’s request that Curtis remain was, of course, based upon a desire not to have a switch in Senate leadership during the remainder of his adminis- tration. The Senate was in session but fifteen minutes, the House an hour. Three Senators Take Oath. The swearing in of three cenators, Thomas of Idaho, Glenn of Illinois and Vandenberg of Michigan, and the ap- pointment of Senators Curtis and Robinson of Arkansas, to notify the President that Congress awaited his word, together with the routine notl- fication to the House, was all the for- mal business transacted.

Mr. Britten is encouraged over the receipt of the letter. “The gate is wide open for the re- sumption of, zegotiations,” Mr. Britten said yesterday. “Are we going to recognize the pub- licly expressed desire of Mr. Baldwin | for a meeting of representatives of the tw. countries or are we. going to let the idea drop by not accepting it?” The next move on his part, Mr. Brit- | ten said, will depend upon the outcome | of the meeting of the House naval af-| fairs committee today after the Bald- win reply has been submitted to the committee members, BILL TO CURB CROOKS IN CITY TO BE PUSHED CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. means of support, whether by own admissions or. by conviction tin Britten are | this or other jurisdictions, who are un-| able to give a good account of them- selves, would be deemed vagrants under terms of the proposed act.

Chicago, Ill., Dec. 3 (A.P.).—‘Scar- face Al” Capone was ordered by a Fed- eral grand jury today to appear before them and tell what he knew of an alleged Chicago Heights whisky ring under investigation. Deputy marshals were searching for him. Robert E. Crowe, ally of Mayor Will- iam Hale Thompson, in his “America First” Republican faction, stepped out of office today and John A. Swanson, who defeated him for the nomination as State’s attorney, took over the re- sponsibility of wiping out Cook County crime. The end of Crowe's eight years as chief prosecutor in the Chicago dis- trict was regarded likewise as the end of his leadership of Cook County Re- publicanism. Crowe expects to sail for Europe as soon as he recovers from an attack of influenza. State’s Attorney Swanson accepted his new office with an announcement of an aggressive policy to eradicate the “great system of unlawful privilege upon which organized crime breeds, fat- tens and thrives.” He named as his first assistant, a t°-mporary appointment, Frank J.

Hoteling, of New York, before the American College of Optometry, spectacles with special lenses to sift light rays will eliminate the cataract from the ills of the hu- man eye.

Cataracts were predominant in the gold fish of the common glass tank, but did not appear among the other fish, Dr. Hoteling said. “It has long been a theory that the red light rays produce a state of aci- dosis in the liquid inclosed in the cor- nea” he declared. “This reacts on the cornea resulting in what is known as a cataract.” $50,000 Gems Taken From Auto.

A foggy night is all’that is needed. Then the schooners will make a dash for the coast. Suspecting that an ef- fort may be made to land the cargoes by small boats from shore, the cutters are trying to watch all such craft that go out to the rum fleet’s vicinity. Mary Pickford Sued.

HOOVER’S VIEW SOUGHT CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. be said that Washington was trying to hold up the people who came here for . the event. He suggested in addition to a parade of decorated automobiles, a torch light parade at night, followed by a large concert on the stage of the Washington Auditorium. Mrs. M. O. Chance as president of the Women’s City Club, said she felt any plans by the other organizations would be approved by her group. Personally, she said, she would like to see an old- fashioned inaugural ceremony. As his organization has not had a meeting to take action on the inaugu- ral celebration, Rudolph Jose, head of the City Club, said he personally would like to see a “live wire ceremony” on March 4, and the meeting should try to formulate some pian to obtain Mr. Hoover’s approval. The President-elect should be convinced, he said, that the people of the country are entitled to a large ceremony. Col. Harper supported the views of the City Club president, and declared the large inauguration was not an un- necessary expense of money, but a dis- tribution of money by people who can afford to come here and spend it.

Santa Claus’ Castle, Dec, 3.—At last we have found o how Santa Claus learns all the good and bad deeds of children all over the world so that he may know how to treat them at Christ- mas time. He took us on the roof of his castle today and into a huge ob- servatory. A giant telescupe, larger than any we had ever seen, was in position, and, after adjusting the sights, Santa called us to look into it. I stepped up to the telescope and peered through it. And what do you think I saw? There was the Washington Monu- ment, as clearly as if I was standing on Fourteenth street. Santa shifted the mechanism slightly and I saw the national Christmas tree in Sherman square. Again he twisted some wheels and 1 could see the White House. “What would you like to see now?” asked Santa. “I'd like to see the city room of The Washington Post,” 1 replied. Presto! There’it was. The old fa- mililar scene. At his desk in the center of the room sat Mr. Aubrey Taylor, city editor. All around were reporters and copy readers, busy handling the hun-| dreds of stories which to make up 4&| mettoche in tuta l'anno saro una buona daily paper. Mr. Taylor had a copy of The Post in his hand and was reading | yesterday It is only once every four years the) citizenry of Washington can show their respect to the office of the President, he said. If Mr. Hoover does not want an Old-fashioned celebration, he asserted the people of Washington should be allowed to stage a celebration on the night of March 4 to give visitors here something to think about. John H. Hanna, of the Merchants and Manufacturers Association, be- lieved Presidents Harding and Coolidge in wanting a simple ceremony consid- ered their personal views more than those of the people of the country. He warned, however, it would be a mis- take to take any definite steps before hearing from the President-elect. M A. Léese. former president of the Chamber of Commerce, declared inaug- urrtion of a new Presidert was the greatest event this country had, and Mr. Hoover should be asked to approve a dignified ceremony. Mr. Hoover was a big man in every way, he declared, and felt confident he would change his views after hearing how the people think about it. Joseph A.

Detroit; Guarantee Trust Building Philadelphia: Chancery Building San Francisco Tuesday, December 4, 1928. WICKED WASHINGTON. The sixty-fifth annual conference of the Na- tional Reform Association is in session in Pittsburgh. From all reports the great work of reforming folks is going steadily forward. Dr. R. H. Martin, president of the organiza- tion, broadcasts the happy tidings that there are now 83,000,000 people living in States that prohibit commercialized Sunday movies, This leaves but 37,000,000 Americans living in jurisdictions addicted to the wickedness of Sunday movies. The reform association is not relaxing its campaign. Its aim is to obtain “reasonable Sabbath laws in every State and the District of Columbia,” according to the keynote address of the Rev. Dr. William Par- sons, so there is hope that the rest of the country may be saved. It seems that a concerted attack is to be made upon wicked Washington. There are few places in America, said Dr. Martin, ‘where there is so little regard shown the Sabbath as at Washington. The influence of this Sabbath desecration Nation-wide, even world-wide. Sunday is the big day for the commercialized amusement interests of the Capital.” The reason is patent. The District of Co- lumbia has no Sunday laws. The reform as- sociation is going to put an end to this sinful- ness. The responsibility, the convention is told, does not rest upon the people of Wash- ington, because “Congress enacts the laws for the people of the District, and, therefore, the responsibility rests upon Congress and ulti- mately upon the Christian people of the 48 States from which the congressmen come.” Thus the procedure is indicated. Reformers from Walla Walla to Biloxi are to be asked to work upon their congressmen, to the end that the morals of Washington may be improved. The discovery that Washington is a sink- hole of iniquity, from which spreads a miasma that poisons the world, may well awake Con- gress from its corrupt contentedness. Why should Congress prate of farm relief, taxation, and other worldly affairs when the National Capital is cursed by open stores, movies, base- ball games and golf on Sunday? The country can not be saved when its own Capital runs down a steep place into the sea. Up and at ’em, reformers! Concentrate upon the salva- tioh.of Washington by arousing in congres- siohal breasts the holy flame of religious zeal! This pious reform, which may require a cen- tury of devoted propaganda, will help to keep the’ reformers themselves from meddling with other matters such as the crippling of the Navy in behalf of cowardly pacifism. Washingtonians would rather have the reformers practice upon them than upon the Navy. is EXPERTS DISAGREE. The British ‘‘experts’’ who so kindly volun- teer to enlighten the minds of Americans as to British policy are not doing very good team- work. Hector C. Bywater reports that Great Britain has gone ahead with naval prepara- tions without arousing any particular objection anywhere, and he draws the conclusion that the United States would arouse less appre- hension in Britain by building cruisers than by talking about building them. Henry W. Nevin- son, on the contrary, assures Americans that ‘‘we have not increased our own armaments except in the way of airplanes.” Mr. Nevinson is not only in disagreement with. his colleague Bywater, but with the As- sociated Press, which recently gave an ad- mirable report of the extensive improvements at Malta, which have made that island an im- pregnable stronghold. New docks, ammuni- tion depots, repair shops, barracks, &c., are now protected by fortifications in which mod- ern. guns of the greatest range have been in- stalled. At the same time the development of the ‘Singapore base has been pushed, and it is fast becoming a naval base of commanding strength, capable of repairing battleships and accommodating a battle fleet. These experts agree upon one proposition, however—they concur in the opinion that President Coolidge does not know anything about British naval construction. Mr. Bywater excuses Mr. Coolidge by saying that it is a very complicated subject, and Mr. Nevinson con- tents himself by denying that there is any con- struction at all! SUPPRESSION OF GAMBLING JOINTS. Police Captain Guy E. Burlingame, principal figure in Maj. Hesse’s antigambling crusade, asserts that under existing law there is scant hope tnat gambling may be driven out of the citys Following every gambling clean-up of recent years prominent police officials have conmplained of the inadequacy of existing laws. It is possible, for example, to prosecute under the antigambling statute only when arrests are made by warrant and it is most difficult, according to police officials, to get inside gambling joints and obtain the evidence upon which warrants could be issued. For this reagon practically all of the arrests made of recént date have been upon “disorderly con- dues” charges, requiring no warrant, and they 2 : eee have ended’ usually with forfeiture of collateral in court. Some of the gambling outfits re- moved to new quarters and resumed business. Police officials are expected to press their campaign for new and more stringent legisla- tion with which to cope with gamblers. Possibly it should be given them, but there are good and sufficient reasons why the pro- tection afforded by warrants should not be waived. If police officers have authority to make arrests without warrant they are only too apt to abuse the authority, to the great injury of innocent citizens. The crusade against gambling has not been a failure. Let the police persist in breaking up the joints and the proprietors will eventu- ally quit. DISTRICT LEGISLATION. Approximately 50 bills and resolutions af- fecting the District of Columbia are awaiting action of Congress. A number of' these meas- ures are essential to the orderly growth of the National. Capital and should have attention at the present session. Others are not of grave importance, and little inconvenience would result from delayed action on them. A right- of-way should be cleared for legislation that is vital to the District, At the present short session only six days are allotted to District legislation in the House, Obviously the entire program for District im- provements can not be considered in that length of time. If efforts are made to force too big a program through nothing will accomplished, and the District will have to wait until the next session for adjustments that are badly needed. Friends of the District in both houses stand ready to push action of several vital measures. They should have the cooperation and support of all agencies inter- ested in the development of Washington, The annual report of the District Commis- sioners is now before Congress. The commis- sion refrained from making any definite rec- ommendations, but the report contains a num- ber of special recommendations made by de- partment heads in their reports. This action will tend to clear the way for important Dis- trict legislation. Other agencies have indi- cated a disposition to support the Commis- sioners. Last week the National Capital Park and Planning Commission met with the Dis- trict Commission and it was agreed to present a united front to Congress in favor of legisla- tion for the beautification of Washington. This food example should be followed by all civic bodles and individuals interested welfare of this city. Foremost among the questions which need immediate attention are the establishment of a municipal airport at Gravelly Point, the pro- posed street car merger, readjustment of the fiscal relationship between the Federal and District governments, the bill to improve the grounds between the Capitol and Union Sta- tion, and a number of bills affecting wages, retirement, half-holidays and _ sick of Government employes. There should be tinited effort to place these measures before Congress and to keep less important bills in the back- ground until action on the more vital problems has been taken. be in the leave ESCAPES FROM PRISON. New York has set another example in deal- ing with the modern criminal which can recommended to the attention of other States. The famous Baumes law, which increases the penalties for repeated offenses, has been widely copied. New York has also greatly improved the method of apprehending criminals. Recent efforts have been concentrated on the problem of prison escapes, With remarkable results. A survey recently completed by Joseph Full- ing Fishman, of the department of correction, shows that a prisoner in New York City’s penal institutions has less than 2 chances in 10,000 for escape. The city handles approximately 60,000 prisoners per year. In 1924 there were 22 escapes; in 1925, 18; in 1926, 11. In 1927 the number had been reduced to 6, and during the first 11 months of this year only 38 escaped. This record must be compared with a rate of escape ranging from 15 to 1,800 for every 10,000 inmates of penal institutions in other States. Crime is prevalent in this country be- cause the criminal has such excellent chances of escaping punishment. Only a small per- centage of those breaking the laws are caught. The proportion of convictions out of the num- ber taken before the courts is not large, and the chances for a prisoner to escape after con- viction are fair in most States. Under these conditions it is not surprising that the criminal element in this country is large. England keeps crime at a minimum largely because of the certainty of punishment. As a rule a felon is willing to take a chance, and where chances to escape punishment are good the most severe legal penalties are not a suf- ficient deterrent. New York has worked on this theory with remarkable success. As a result thousands of criminals are reported to have left that State to center their activities in large cities elsewhere. Correction depart- ments and city governments which are casting about for solutions of criminal problems would do well to note the record of New York’s 18 Bastilles. be REFORM OF THE CALENDAR. The calendar reform movement has de- veloped to the point where it will be put before Congress in the form of a resolution requesting the President to propose an inter- national conference for the simplification of the calendar or to accept an invitation to participate in such a conference should it be proposed by another nation. The resolution was drawn up by Representative Porter, chair- man of the foreign affairs committee of the House. It is held desirable that such a con- ference be held in 1929, since the nearest convenient year for putting a new calendar into effect is 1933, when January 1 falls on Sunday. The interval between 1929 and 1933 would be needed to put the plan into effect. The simplified calendar generally favored presupposes a year of 13 months, each con- taining 28 days, with each week starting on Sunday. -Thus holidays and other dates would be invariable, on the same day of the week. All business transactions and computations would be facilitated. There has developed of recent years an or- ganized international , effort to determine whether or not public sentiment would permit of a calendar change at this time. The present calendar, in use some 2,000 years with but minor modifications, is unscientific and de- fective in many respects. Everywhere, it is reported, public sentiment has been brought to realize its failures and shortcomings, Par- ticularly in the United States and in Latin eas keer | Ue ae PODS ee eg * . ¥ “ THE ‘ | \ t . — te deh byt ro eae ut ee Oe AM ee 2 ee eR Re eRe ee fait SERRE ee eM aye ve wes ibe CORY ven rie hen se act Fit ey i cae “AN oy va set.) ‘ iy me ¢ i te ; .

The recent Pan-American conference adopted a resolution calling upon the 21 governments to appoint committees to prepare for an international conference on calendar, simplification, It would be less of a task than the average person supposes to readjust the calendar. The bill legalizing the new calendar would include an adjustment table, and would provide that dates borne by commercial instruments would be automatically changed to the new dates as determined by the adjustment table, and it would also provide for the prorating of fixed charges, such as rents, wages, &c. Inasmuch as the present calendar is incon- venient and expensive, while a scientific calen- dar would promote the comfort and conven- ience of the entire world, it seems to be high time for the nations to shake off their inertia and prejudice, and readjust their calculation of time to suit modern needs. LOST IN THE SHUFFLE. This morning there will be sent to the White House for the approval of the Presi- dent a joint resolution which provides for the participation of the United States in the international conference for safety at sea. This resolution, which passed the Senate some time last May, was supposed to have been ap- proved by President Coolidge, and upon that assumption the Shipping Board the De- partment of Commerce delegates to attend the conference. discovered, however, that while the proved by the House on been signed by the did not exist as law. Some of the members interested in the pro- posed conference made an investigation yes- terday and found that the resolution was sent by the House to the Senate, where it orig!- nated, at 3:35 on the afternoon of May 29 and that Congress adjourned at 5:30 on that day. In the rush which always precedes final adjournment it appears that this measure overlooked, But the discovery made yesterday of the failure to send the paper to the White House will be followed today by its transmission to the That Mr. Coolidge will sign the resolution and thereby authorize participation by the United in the meeting in London in March is a fore- rone conclusion, in view of the fact that the recommended the of the resolution before it was prepared, and selected It resolution was ap- May 29 it had not President, and therefore was important was executive.

The I-38 is so large that it can not be assembled in any of the Junkers workshops, and yet the Junkers assembled entirely in these shops, are the largest that the industry ever has seen. The public will watch the con- struction and the trial flights of this monster of the air with great interest, If it proves its practicability it may become the first of a great fleet of air liners in which facilities and equipment will be such as to make them pow- erful competitors of de luxe trains and lux- urious ocean liners. superplanes, PSYCHOLOGY IN INDUSTRY. American industrial chiefs are charged with neglecting the human element in their schemes of production. <A suggestion comes from the conference of the Personnel Research Federation in New York that employers of the future will turn their attention to the psycho- logical characteristics of their employes in order to achieve a maximum of efficiency. Industrial psychology is a neglected field of research in this country. European nations have gone much further into the subject, as is indicated by the activities of the British Na- tional Institute of Industrial Psychology and other organizations. There is no correspond- ing organization in the United States. Here is a field in which some scholar with a pen- chant for research can render a real service to the workmen and industrial leaders of the country. Such questions as the relation of fatigue to hours of work, to output, to safety and to in- dustrial unrest are of vital importance to the industrial organizations of this country. Dr. Walter V. Bingham, director of the federation, points out that a girl who fatigues because the duties of office work are too taxing for her may come freshly through a day of strenuous manual work. He declares that it is time for ‘‘psychology to rediscover the individual.”’ Psychological reaction of employes is also of vast importance in prevention of accidents. Research into personal characteristits is re- ported to have reduced accidents on the Boston Klevated Railway by 17 per cent last year. Street car companies, operators of buses, rail- roads and other means of public transporta- tion will find psychology of tremendous im- portance in solving the accident problem. In the p age attention has been given to the devet ent of machinery, and the hu- man element in industry has been too much neglected. Research into the problem of hu- man efficiency from the modern scientific standpoint should yield large returns to far- sighted business men of this country. and in the rear of the body is | As etek Sh ahh ts eae ba ok diy yoga a 4% rene BE i al ko . a BS Oe ee ae a * : vat dada Ne he eee ESDAY, DECEMBER a a haa tia a Ne Se ee hehe My “4, 1928. a lg Op alr eis A ihe Biot g atin ores eae ee sie Bt, Neer nee! oy seals leks Ss i said oo ie r sae tah 2, Dae ig Se tah et de = had il ALL nth OY ha aR 72 ape) ae OL % i KN PRN, ii ‘ Ay aad hs u n c wy LAME DUCK SESS/ON Look Out for the Fireworks!

A facto president, having abso- lutely no constitutional authority for administrating anything, can begin to administer such parts of presidential functions as take his fancy, whenever the spirit so moves him. “A de facto presidential friend of mine began his administration a year or two before he had been elected. His later election in no way detracted from his de factoing as president. You are perfectly well aware of the fact that since there was no constitu- tional representative and consequently no possible way in which we the peo- ple could choose presidential electors on November 6, we could do no more for Mr. Hoover than make him a free and unlimited de facto President. There is no reason why a de facto President should not de facto away as hard as he pleases, before or after a real President lets go all holds. Nor is there any obstacle to our hav- ing a half-dozen de facto Presidents, all de factoing away in different di- rections at the same moment, each having the same lack of constitutional authority to act at all. Since we the people don’t like a constitutional President, a constitu- tional President is the kind of thing that we don’t like. And, anyway, that’s the kind of thing we can’t get, unless we choose to get back to constitutionalism. W. W. KIMBALL. de Congress Contests, To the Editor of The Post—Sir: There is a prospect that several seats in the next House will be contested. Could there not be devised some way by which a session of Congress can escape the constantly recurring long contentions over seats? It is true the Constitution provides that each house shall be the sole judge of the election of its mem- bers, and itcan not transfer the author- ity to any other body, but the time of Congress might be much shortened by some adequate change in method. It is more than one year after elec- tion before Congr ss meets. It might be provided that in that interegnum contests could be heard by a commit- tee to report the result to the House or Senate with its recommendation. The House or Senate would then have all the facts before it when it meets and could pass upon the facts thus reported. LAFAYETTE PROCTOR. Misuse of the Siren. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: In a recent issue of your newspaper ap- peared an editorial, “Heed the Siren.” You referred to motorists heeding the Sirens of the fire apparatus and the cars of the Emergency Hospital. I live in the vicinity of one of the emergency hospitals, and I have observed that their cars frequently maintain high speed and sound their siren when they are on no emergency call. A nurse who has ridden with them has said that she has reproved them for this, but the drivers have laughed at her and said they enjoyed making the people Jump. It is clear that often they abuse their power for the mere gratification of causing people annoy- ance by their high speed and the dis- agreeable noise of their siren. There is something to be said for the people in the matter. J. M. D. Bubble, Bubble!

iE DEFICIT [9 UTED IN REPORT New Tells Coolidge Revenues of Post Office Department Increased Slightly. IS $33,363,148 (Associated Press.) Results of an improvement and ex- pansion program in the American pos- tal service, particularly the air mail, were set forth yesterday by Postmaster General New in his annual report to President Coolidge. which noted an operating deficit of $33,363,148 for the ‘year ended June 30 The operation of the Jones-White Merchant Marine act, aesigned to stimulate American shipbuilding with aid from postal revenue, was not re- flected in the report, as new contracts coule not be made to begin during the period. The 5-cent rate on letters sent by air also was made effective since the date ot the report, but Mr. New said the contract air mail service ap- pears to justify his opinion that pri- vate enterprise can perform the work creditably. The Postmaster General recommend- ed amendment of the March 8 act, under which contracts were let dur- ing the past year for transporting the mails by air between New York and Montreal, Key West and San Juan, Porto Rico, and between Key West and the Canal Zone. He asked authority to make contracts for routes between the island possessions and _ foreign countries and between such island pos- Sessions. Claims Increased Efficiency. “The fiscal affairs of the depart- ment indicate careful and economical administration ot the service,” he said. “Notwithstanding the decrease in the increase of postal revenues under those of the preceding year, the oper- ating deficit increased at a lesser rate per cent.” The revenues of the -servic? were placed at $693,633,921, an increase of 1.54 per cent over last year, when the increase was 3.53 per cent. The audited expenditures were $725,699,765. The final estimate of the sum needed to run the department was $760,973,279, and the amount carried in the appro- priation act, $755,336,200. A reduction of 8.5 per cent in the mumber of undeliverable letters was noted, but these “dead’’ messages to- taled 23,649,044 pieces. The decrease was ascribed to the department’s cam- paign to induce mail advertisers to use envelopes bearing return § addresses. Money found in dead letters or loose in the mails totaled $98,678, and 461,- 441 pareel post packages went claimed. Free Mail Reported.

Will next Christmas be a Cash Christmas? The answer to that question is up to you, but The ‘Vashington Post is willing to help each and every resident of the Dtstrict of Columbia and its neighbors make next Christmas hap- pier because ef extra cash for holiday spending. How can you get this cash? Turn to page 10 of today’s issue of The Post and read carefully the advertisement there which Pives all the rules, regula- tions and requirements of this offer It is of interest to everyone, including present subscribers to The Post as well as prospective readers. Nearly everyone has, or has had at some time, a Christmas Savings Club account in some bank in the District. Thi. past year some 83,0C(C saved money for Christmas shopping in this manner More will save in this way next year. If you are planning to open a Christ- mas Savings account or if you have opened one, let The Post either start it or keep it up for you. It is easy to have an account opened under The Post’s thrift plan and just as easy to keep it going. Subscriptions to The Post for three months are easy to obtain and each one means $1 for you. If you are an old subscriber, getting a friend to take the paper means $1 for you. If you are not a subscriber, signing up for three months will put a dollar in the bank for you. Each additional subscriber, secured by either old ar new reader, will entitle the solicitor to another dollar. Subscriptions to The Post for three months make ideal Christmas gifts. Anyone receiving such a present will remember the giver each day for that period and probably for a long time to come as subscriptions are extended from time to time. Banks in a!l sections of the city have indorsed The Post’s thrift plan and are cooperating in the establishment of Savings accounts for subscribers. You may have your club started in a bank close to your home or office where it is convenient for all purposes. mail. Had postage been collected, the revenue would have been $17,634,510, it was estimated. The Postmaster Gen- eral asked authority to extend the free mail privilege to the Diplomatic Corps and consuls of Pan-American countries Mr. New reviewed the revision of postage rates under the act of May 29 of this year. Significant changes made were restoration of the l-cent rate for private mailing of post cards, reduc- tion in rates on newspapers and periodicals when mailed by the gen- eral public and on the advertising por- tions when mailed by publishers, and merger of the special delivery and special handling charges on matte! other than first class. American exporters are placed at a disadvantage with those of competing countries, he said, by termination of the parcel post convention with Cuba. Cuba refused to extend the agreement he ponited out, because Congress would not repeal the law prohibiting impor- LAST I SE ID tation of cigars and cigarettes in quan- tities of less than 3,000 to the package He termed the law “obnoxious and archaic” and said it is hoped Congress will change it ‘Two Bank Robbers Club Barber in $6,000 Holdup — - 7 Curley Answers In Contractor Suit Denies Malicious Prosecu- tion of Campbell; Priest Hits Slander Charge. The Most Rev. Michael J. Curley, Archbishop of Baltimore, yesterday filed answer! and denied charges made against him in the recent $25,000 ma- licious prosecution suit instituted by James W. Campbell, a contractor. The Rev. Franz M. W. Schneeweiss, pastor of Our Lady of Perpetual Help Church, and Alfred J. Wise, contractor of Upper Marlboro, Md., who were sued for $25,- 000 each on slander charges by Camp- bell, also filed answers. Action of Father Schneeweiss in re- porting the theft of a large quantity of sand and gravel from the church property to Police Court authorities last summer was done without his ap- proval or ratification, Archbishop Curley declared, and charged that the action was taken after the pastor and defendant contractor had been advised to lay the matter before Police Court authorities by an attorney. Campbell charged that he was arrested charged with larceny of the sand and gravel and that the charges were later dis- missed against, him. Father Schneeweiss and swering Campbell's charge made slanderous statements against him, declared that the statement at- tributed to them was made to a woman, whom they thought should have been advised of the occurrence and who de- Wise, an- that they in the newspapers.

Advancing more than a point, to 107, Mergenthaler Linotype again was the central attraction in trading on the Washington Stock “xchange yes- terday. In all, 430 shares, of the stock changed hands in fifteen dis- tinct lots. Local brokers also watched with interest the rise of Capital Trac- tion to 107% in yesterday's market, reflecting the company’s favorable Oc- tober report to the Public Utilities Commission, Four other stocks participated yesterday’s general advance, including two bank issues. National Savings & Trust Co. moved up to 506, and Com- mercial National Bank climbed to 260. Fractional Riggs National Bank war- rants were active again at 305. Po- tomac EHlectric 5% per cent preferred held firm at 108%. There were no major recessions, but Washington Railway & Electric pre- ferred fell back fractionally to 99%, and Potomac Electric 6 per cent pre- ferred to 111%. The bond division was only moder- ately active, $1,000 Anacostia & Poto- mac River Railroad 5s bringing 96; Potomac Electric 6s, 1953, 108; Washington Gas 6s, series A, and $500 Capital Traction 5s, in Financial Outlook Good, Despite some adverse conditions, the outlook for the winter in this terri- tory is better than that presented in 1927, according to current reports from the Fifth Federal Reserve District. Losses in crops, due largely to late summer storms and floods, have been offset by increased city purchasing power. Employment conditions are con- siderably improved. A normal increase in fal] trade ts seen in the increase in debits to indi- vidual accounts. Insolvencies last month were less than in that prior, or the same month last year. There is the seasonal activity in coal mining. More cotton was consumed by textile mills than last year, and purchases of textile products are on the upgrade. A 30 per cent increase in-retail trade in this territory, over the month pre- ceding, is reported, while a 1.5 increase is shown over the corresponding month of 1927. Building permits issued and contracts awarded were 12.8 per cent higher than in the same month a year ago. Federal Reserve Statement. The Federal Reserve Board’s condi- tion statement of 630 reporting mem- ber banks in leading cities as of No- vember 28, shows increase for the week of $127,000,000 in loans and discounts; of $20,000,000 in tnvestments; of $177,- 000,000 in borrowings from Federal Re- serve Banks, and of $22,000,000 in net demand deposits. Loans or stocks and bonds, includ- ing United States Government obliga- tions, were $152.000,000 above the No- vember 21 total at all reporting banks. “All other” loans and discounts de- clined $26,000,000 at all reporting banks. Holdings of United States Government securities increased $5,- 000,000 during the week, while hold- ings of other bonds, stocks and secu- rities increased #15,000,000 at all re- porting banks. Morris Plan Activity. The last month was one of excep- | tional activity for the Morris Plan, ac- |cording to a statement issued yester- banking system. | | Three new companies commenced op- by the chain erations, and two of the most im- portant Morris Plan institutions in the | country were consolidated. The Morris Plan Bank of Virginia absorbed the Morris Plan Bank of Nor- folk, the oldest bank operating under the plan. It was organized by Arthur J. Morris, the founder of the plan, in 1910.

The | total represents a gain of $511,923,202 for the month the largest increase since issuance of the figures was be- gun in January, 1926, and undoubtedly the greatest of any month in exchange history. The new total is more than %2,000,- 000,000 above that reported at the end of November, 1927, when a total of $4,091,836,303 marked the passing of the $4,000,000,000 level. It also is more | than $1,000,000,000 above the total of | Federal Reserve brokers’ loans reported | for the week ended November 28 as $5,289,900,000, also .a record. The retreat of the “bull” forces on the stock exchange, which started Sat- urday, continued today under another bombardment of selling orders which forced prices of a long list of issues down $1 to nearly $15 a share. Part of the lost ground was recovered in the “bull counter attack” in the last | hour. Total sales fell below 4,500,000 | shares for the first time since election | day, which marked the inauguration | of what Wall street calls the “Hoover market.” MOVEMENTS OF STEAMSHIPS | New York, Dec. 3.

re £:; Vag = Major Radio Chains Vying Here Local Listeners Now Have Opportunity to Compare Merits of Complete Pro- grams of WMAL and WRC—New Heterodyne. Washingtonians having lNstened to the full Columbia -network programs for a week seem to have pronounced them O. K. Station WMAL has been carrying this entertainment for con- siderably more than a week, but in the beginning not. all the features were taken. . However, now that local listeners are having offered to them the complete Columbia wares as well as those of the National Broadcasting Co., they are thus given an opportunity to compare the merits of the country’s two major broadcasting chains. It is of further interest to Wash- ingtonians to know that Ted Husing, formerly well known as an announcer here at WRC, is assistant to the presi- dent of the Columbia chain in New York. Apropos of the chain situation, there is a communication from H. A. Bel- lows, former Federal] radio commission- er, now manager of station WCCO, at Minneapolis, who created considerable excitement recently by contending that a broadcaster should nave the right to select whatever he chooses from any chain program, and without signing for all the features on that chain. “Apparently there is some confusion as to the position of wcco with re- gard to chain programs,” Mr. Bellows wires from Minneapolis. ‘We are sim- ply throwing open our facilities for a limited use by any chain service. Co- lumbia has accepted our position while National has refused to do so and is consequently withdrawing its programs. We aro ready to take back ‘such of them as we have time for, but we will not cut our Columbia or enter into any arrangement which prevents us from taking programs from any source we may desire. “We feel that good local service is basis for broadcasting and that this should be supplemented by the best outside programs available. Our posi- tion is taken first in interest of the radio listening public and, second, in that of all independent broadcasting stations which desire to be something more than mere outlets for a single chain.” Another heterodyne on WRC—seem- ingly a brand-new one—was reported to the Federal Radio Commission by C. A. Briggs, 1311 Spring road north- west. yesterday. “Two heterodynes, apparently from transmitting stations, were heard Saturday night on WRC at 9 p. m., 9:15 p. m. and 10 p. m.,” Mr. Briggs informed the commission. “My receiver is only 2,500 feet from WRC. Naturally these heterodynes were heard in a quiet interval during station an- nouncements. That they were heard at all under the circumstances is impor- tant. “Before the reallocation, I would at times get intolerable heterodyning on WMAL and I am probably not more than two and one-half miles from the transmitter. I have been afraid that the heterodyning problem was more serious than you apparently figured.” Commenting upon the special test made by WRC, H. L. VanNess, of 1323 Maryland avenue northeast, writes The Post as follows: “In reference to WRC and KMBC in- terference, I wish to say that I tuned in at 5 a. m. last Friday morning on WRC and noticed a decided whistle at times when both stations were on. While WRO was silent, KMBC came in with poor volume. The announcer claimed a noise between WRC and a station in Montana. My set is a Radiola 18. Taking the situation as a whole I think there is some improve- ment.” WORK’S BRIDGE T tion we have Deal M and ques- tion No. 17 in the series of twenty- five Auction and Contract Bridge questions which has been running on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. : . 12-4 South Declarer, contract No Trump, score, love-all. To trick 1, West leads the Trey Diamonds. Question No. 17. What card should Declarer play from Dummy on this trick? (Fill the blank before you read the answer that follows). ANSWER. BLANK. 17. On trick 1, Declarer should play from Dummy THE ANSWER. 17. Declarer should play the Ace of Diamonds from Dummy on trick 1 and, as Closed Hand must play its King. the adverse Queen of Diamonds is made the high card of that suit and a sure winner. The reason for this seemingly sacrificial] play on the part of Declarer is as follows. With only one entry in the other three suits in Dummy, and conse- quently only one opgortunity to lead toward the tenaces in°Closed Hand, it is not probable that the Declarer can make game without establishing Dum- ’s long Diamonds. The lead of the (fourth best) Trey of Diamonds by West showed that West held three higher and as Dummy has the Deuce, none lower, consequently West opened four-card suit and the seven adverse Diamonds were originally divided four in the West hand and three in the East. It is assured therefore that Dummy, winning the first trick with the Ace of Diamonds and leading the Jack, tan force out the adverse Queen and make in all four Diamond tricks. In dition, the following five tricks (and game) are assured; two Spades, One Heart, two Clubs. Should the amond King be allowed to win the irst trick, Dummy’s Club King would ave to be used as an entry and there buld be no way for Dummy to get @® second time to cash his remain- Ing Diamonds after they were estab- Ushed. of (Copyright. 1928.)

Doria Belli Roberts - Thomas Reynolds From time immemorial motherhood has held the center of the stage; here comes a play, “The Bachelor Fa- ther,” by Edward Childs Carpenter, wherein fatherhood furnishes’ the theme. At the outset it should be stated, one thing is certain The trav- eler in the theater will have to zo a long, long way before a cleverer play peeps over the horizon. Now, there probably is not much ado about fatherhood in the familiar set- ting—with mother and _ the gathered around the family hearth; though that always is a pretty pic- ture; but when fatherhood is vagrant, when the ends of the earth are its playground, its offspring without bene- fit of clergy, then, that is something else again. It happens tn this play, as | it should in all plays, that the author has taken the unusual—and the father | here. is one of those vagrants whose philanderings are eventually brought home to him, back to roost. always the case. It might seem that daring in Mr. Antoinette (* Dick Berney Jennie, maid *Tony”’ This, naturally, is not there is a bit of Carpenter’s theme—and there is; but once the shock troops have braved the froné lihe trenches the action settles down to a nice quiet evening at home, and the fun begins while the fur files.

Sir Basil Winterton, of the gentry, having seen all there is to see, takes his doctor’s advice and gathers under ~ the family rooftree three of his heirs. They come, respectively, from England (a boy, Geoffrey Trent); from Italy (a girl, Maria Credaro), and from America (the wice-cracking darling of the East (Tony) Flagg). They are of an age, and when they land in 'what was formerly a bachelor’s eminent ' domain there is, of course, a great ishifting and change in the household, but | bairns } I Dori, | singer-actress; It is this breaking down and build- ing up of character that furnishes one of the lovely touches of theater, as fine a study in human nature as any offered in the ages. A hard-boiled, sel- fish old grouch comes to be a lovable soul. Cc. Aubrey Smith plays the bachelor father, and makes of the role a lasting memory. It falls to the lot of June Walker to carry off the little American in a blaze of glory. There is a gifted young girl of decided talent, Adriana who essays the difficult role of the Itdlian girl with a s | penc hant for grand opera. | | | ' | George Riddell, like chickens that come | ' | J So far as players go, Mr. Belasco has placed a perfect Jewel in each setting. The boy is played by Rex O’Malley. Geoffrey Kerr is the solicitor who rounds up the flock, from the far corn- ers, and eventually marries one—and as the butler in the old English manse, has more control of facial expression in one short scene than many of his conferees, of the pantry, are able to muster during an entire evening in the theater. “The Bachelor Father” is supreme comedady—and, like all good comedy, has just enough wistfulness about it to make real, throbbing, pulsing play ma- terial. Certainly, it is one of the gems of current theater. — <i i ¥ . ‘Selfish Mothers EAR Miss McDonald: Have beena D constant reader of your column, 80 I thought I’d come to you for advice. I am engaged to a young man, Have been for the past two years. Here is the trouble, We would like to get married, as he loves me dearly and I love him. Nei- ther has ever had a sweetheart before, and he can afford to marry But he has a mother whom he thinks the world of, and he doesn't like to leave her in her old age. 1 think this ts a proper feeling for him to have, as I in his place. But somehow she can’t see the point in him getting married, ever. We suggested to her to live with us, but she claims it won’t work out. Things have gone along quite smooth- ly, until lately she’s been trying to break us apart. Would you _ please give me some advice as to what we should do. Thanking you very kindly EDNA. The boy’s attitude may be right, but his mother's is entirely selfish and all wrong. I often wonder what wom- en can be thinking of when they ask their sons to forego marriage. Most women today are sufficiently informed Wives of [Tomorrow =By FRANCES M’DONALD know I'd feel just the same if I were) | For that ‘ re — ~~ on the basic facts of life to know that marriage safeguards a man’s integrity and stabilizes existence for him. Therefore the mother who demands that her san relinquish his place in a man’s world, and join the army of men who desire marriage and yet live un- married, amazes me. Selfish mothers make terrible mothers- in-law. Having enslaved their own children, they at once enter upon a campaign to terrorize or otherwise subjugate the new daughter or son. reason the one way out is for you and your sweetheart to decide whether to give each other up. or to . marry and pay your mother-in-law’s board, either with relatives or else- where. Certainly three lives should not be made miserable because one individual believes herself the center of the universe. Those bullying old ladies usually be- have when properly and firmly dealt with. So be properly firm. Her de- mand is entirely unjust, unnatural and tyranical She planned her life and lived it to her liking. She now denies her son the privilege of plan- ning and living his life.

- ~— ee aa et ee - - '14.9 Points Average; “averages have been WASHINGTON: TUESDAY. DECEMBER 4, 1928. ALLAGHER IS AWARDED DECISION OVER LEVINSK ry Point Scoring In Football Declines Teams Show Stronger Defense; Fewer Set- Ups Played. Navy Typical Low- Scoring Eleven. BY F. G. VOSBURGH (Associated Press Sports Writer). EW YORK, Dec. 3 (A.P.).—Greater skill in defense and a decided reduction in the number of set- up teams have kept the total points accumulated by. this season’s college football elevens down to considerably below the bumper crop of 1928. The country’s average team, as de- ' termined by the Associated Press from the records of 159 aggregations repre- senting every section, scored a total of 127.3 points in the course of the sea- son and 14.98 points per game. With the forward pass at its peak and means of defense against aerial attck not yet perfected, the figures for the year be- fore were 130.5 and 15.3. Over a period of seven years for which computed, 1922, 1923 and 1927 stand out as seasons ‘in which the offense predominated, while in 1924, 1925, 1926 and now again in 1928 the defense succeeded in solving the assaults and kept the scoring down. A team typical of the low scoring, strong defensive team of 1928 was the Navy. Except for two games with smaller opponents the Mid- shipmen never made more than one touchdown and a fleld goal in aA game and no team scored more than 7 points against them. Low scores were the rule throughout the entire Western Conference, where, with the single exception of Chicago which was below par, the teams were closely matched. This situation gave added importance to the player with fleld goal-kicking ability and Michigan ™ made the unusual record of winning three of its games in this manner. The Wolverines beat Illinois, 3 to 0; Iowa, 10 to 7, and Michigan State, 3 to 0, in a nonconference engagement by fol- lowing the effective method of keep- ing its rival’s score down and eking out enough points to win. A similar low-scoring range existed in the South- western Conference. Many a game was won or ilIost through tries for point after touch- down. Among the most successful at cashing in on the extra counter was Paul Scull, Pennsylvania’s __ triple threat, who made seven successful drop-kicks on seven tries against Cor- nell. The year before he made all five extra points against the same team, giving him a two-year record of twelve out of twelve against the Ithacans. No greater drop fr u high to low scoring estate is to be found than - this same Cornell, which wads a leader in the touchdown rampage of 1923, with 320 points. In a single game against Susquehanna that year Cornell made 84 points, which is 12 more than it made in all the 1928 campaign, This year the “Sparring Partner” colleges were much stronger and many of the so-called weaker. The highest scoring machine in the country in the present season, which is now all over but the shouting ex- cept in the South and Far West, is the University of Florida with 324 points in eight games. This average of 40% points per game is an out- standing exception, however, and the range is all the way down to Bates and ‘irinity, which could score but a single point all year. The scoring records for 1922-28, in- clusive: major elevens were No. of.

Mehlhorn and Morrison were tied at 291 for the low score when cards for the 72-hole grind were turned in yes- terday. Horton Smith, of Joplin, was in third place with a 292. Fourth place was shared by Al Espinosa of West Glencoe, Ill., and Francis Brown, for- mer amateur champion of Hawali, each with 293. Tommy Armour, Washing- ton, was next with 297. | Rules Is Subject of | Meeting Thursday. Improved His Lie, als Charge; Kellerman May Be Winner. By HENRY LITCHFIELD ‘WEST. KE executive committee of the Dis- trict of Columbia Golf Associa- tion. will meet next Thursday night at the office of the president, C. Chester Caywood, Woodward Building, to determine who won the District junior amateur championship. This event, which was staged on. the Indian Spring golf course last September, 36 holes, medal play, was credited to John C. Shorey, of the Bannockburn Club, with Karl F. Kellerman jr., Columbia, as runner-up. Shorey’s card as sub- mitted and attested totaled 78—75—153, while Kellerman’s scores was 78—T7T7— 155. While the contestants were playing their second round in the afternoon, J. Monro Hunter, the Indian Spring professional, went out on the second nine of the course, where several club members were playing four-ball matches, to request them to step aside and give the juniors the right of way. When he returned to the golf shop he reported that he had seen Shorey violate the rules governing stroke competition in three. in- stances—improving his He in the rough behind the ball, pressing the line of his putt with his foot and removing something from a trap. Unfortunately, there were no officials of the association in attendance and Hunter, although he had been desig- nated as in charge of the event, did not care to take the responsibility of final action. President Caywood was out of the city and the secretary, Dr W. C. Barr, was ill, so that the matter was left in abeyance. Hunter later addressed a formal com- munication to the association, stating what he had observed and. the meeting on Thursday was then decided. upon in order that both sides might be heard. The competition was: in threesomes, and Shorey was accompanied by Roger Peacock and James G. Drain. The latter is now at the University of Chi- cago, but an effort: is being made to ob- tain information from him. Peacock will be asked to make either a verbal or written statement, while, of course, Shorey will be heard in’ his own de- fense. The infractions of the rules with which he is charged would, if sus- tained, penalize him to the extent of six strokes, two strokes for each Golf Association M ay Strip Shorey of D. Cc.

There are two witnesses who, it 15 claimed, can substantiate Hunter's ob- servations, but both have stated that they have no desire to be summoned, The executive committee is composed of President Caywood, Indian Spring; Secretary Barr, Columbia; Middleton Beaman, Bannockburn; Dr. Bruce L. Taylor, Congressional, and Albert E. Steinem, Town and Country. Montgomery to Fight Stribling on Dee. 13 Kansas City, Dec. 3 (A.P.).—An- nouncement of the matching of Sully Montgomery, Fort Worth, and Young Stribling, fistic pride of Georgia and a contender for the throne vacated by Gene Tunney, was made here tonight.

At the start of the season; Rockne predicted his team would lose three games this season, but. the Trojans made it four. The others to triumph over Notre Dame this season were Wis- consin, Georgia Tech and Carnegie Tech. Dr. Wilce Will Coach Nebraska, Is Reported Chicago, Dec. 3 (A.P.).—Reports per- sisted in “Big Ten” football circles. to- day that Dr. Jack Wilce was seriously considering an offer*to become head football. coach at the University of Nebraska. Wilce, who resigned as coach at Ohio State because of alumni criti- cism last winter, also has been reported to have received similar offers from Harvard. and‘ other. universities. The Nebraska offer, which has been neither. denied nor affirmed by Wilce, caused a bigger stir today following reports that Coach Ernest Bearg, of Nebraska, planned to return. as coach to his alma mater, Washburn College. Indiana also was interested in a report that its coach. Pat Page, was in the West either to schedule a game for the Hoosiers next season or to consult about a coaching offer’ at-some uni- versity along the Pacific Coast. FA Good.

D. C. Basketball Board e oh Lifts Ban on Coaches The District of Columbia Basketball Referees Association last night amend- ed its constitution to admit coaches and managers of teams to membership, but retained the ban against players. Discussion of the new ruling di- rected against “stalling” resulted in a uniform interpretation of the rule which will be enforced with the view that a player in posesssion of the ball in the rear court must pass or shoot when an opponent approaches within approximately a yard, Fifteen members of the association Success{uily ‘passed the examination required annually. They are Beckett, Ebert, ‘Ford, Haas, Harbin, Huey, Hughes, Joynes, O. Mitchell, J. Mitchell, Nash, O'Meara, Robbins, Simpson and Daily. ° Four applications for membership were received from Donald Adams, formerly of Maryland University; Harry Almony, of Bliss Electrical School; Paul Kreh, of Silver Spring, and Ca- ruso, late of Pittsburgh.

Team, Ill «Athens, Ga., Dec. 3 (A.P.).—Harry Mehre, head coach at the University of Georgia; Jimmy Crowley, coach, and seven men, most of them first stringers, ‘of the Bulldog football squad, are down with influenza with their hardest game of the season with Georgia Tech just around the corner. Both coaches were reported to be suffering from high fever, and it ap- peared probable tonight that some, if not all, of the players lsted as sick might not be able to participate in the game next Saturday.. Members of the squad in the hos- pital here tonight were Herdis Mc- Crary, Gleen Lautzenheiser, ‘Fat’ Bryant, Joe Martin, John Davidson, John. Hill and Joe Boland. With the exception of Davidson, the players are all linemen, The attack of influenza has rendered the squad particularly helpless unless some great improvement takes place. MONROE FIVE IN ACTION.

U. in Fi irst Session. a ee By JACK ESPEY ASKETBALL came into its own yesterday on the stage of District college athletics. . Large squads of veterans and rookies invaded the gym- nasiums of five schools as_ football paraphernalia was locked up for an- other year. Candidates for varsity and freshmen teams taxed floor space at Georgetown, Maryland, Gallaudet, Catholic U. and American and without exception the coaches looked them over with smiles of satisfaction, for . prospects at each school were called good. Georgetown’s tossers were the most serious of the flock, with the opening of their season only five days off. Coach Elmer Ripley's team will jump into action Saturday night against the Baltimore University quintet. The other schools will commence competi- tion before the Christmas holidays, following which contests will come in rapid succession for all as the season blossoms forth with major attractions. Squads numberihe between 25 and 30 reported. to Coaches Fred Rice and Walter Krug, at Catholic and Gallaudet, respectively, while Maryland shooters were sent through a fast session by Burton Shipley in the College Park gym. The familiar faces of Foley, Harvey, Long and Carney, stars of the past three seasons, were missed in the drill of the Catholics, but Coach Rice counted a fair sized group of seasoned players, at that, while among those who got into the warm-up at Gallaudet included three varsity performers of last year-—-Cosgrove, Hokanson and Cain. Capt. Dyer, of the Kendall Greeners, did not don a uniform be- cause of a sprained knee which he in- jured in a recent football game. Jim Schmidt, Tut Aman, Joe Beall, Mike McCabe, Joe Champa and Hal Ogden were the experienced men out for the Catholics’ team. They are re- garded as most likely choices for the varsity although there were several members of last year’s yearlings whom Coach Rice looked on with favor, Jack Malevitch, plunging full back of the Cardinal Football Team, is expected to report for court practice within the next week but he will have to allow an injured ankle plenty of rest before trotting the boards. The usua] large contingent of Wash- ington athletes was seen in the Mary- land gym, where there were six letter men and a host of other experienced tossers returning from the squad of a year ago. The District natives present were Thurston Dean, captain, and former Central High filer, George Madi- gan, center, and Julle Radice, for- ward and guard, both formerly of Eastern High; Bill Evans, forward, of Business High fame, and Al Heagy and Warren Rabbitt, guards, who learned their basketball at Western. All but Rabbitt are lIet- ter men. Georgetown wlil present practically the same strong combination which created havoc in college ranks last year when it entertains Baltimore U. in Saturday's inaugural. Only Bobby Nork, last year’s captain and forward, will be absent. Freddy Mesmer and Johnny Dunn, forwards; Don Dutton, center, and Hal Meenan, Maurice Mc- Carthy and Jack Byrnes, guards, will take the floor for the Blue and Gray once more, with the first five named likely to get the call at the opening whistle. Among the prominent newcomers this year Coach Riply poipts with pleasure to Bill Shea, sophomore guard, a flashy performer who servei with the fresh- men five at New York University two years ago. Shea dic] not play last year at. Georgetown owing to the one-year rule, but is said to have the ability to make a serious hid for a varsity posl- tion this year. None of the colleges has completed schedule arrangements, although most of the dates sought have been filled. American and Galludet will hook up in thelr, first game on De- cember 14.0n the former’s court, and Catholic will commence com- petition in a clash with Baltimore University at Brookland on Decem- ber 15.

COLLINS— EW YORK, Dec. 3 (N.Y.W.NS.).— N Eastern football coming out of a slight daze to survey the wreck- age of the Army, N. Y. U. and Notre Dame after their games last week with Stanford, Oregon Aggies and Southern California, respectively, seems unanil- mously disposed to admit without argu- ment that the Pacific Coast brand of football outclasses the best the East hus to offer. Those who saw the Stan- ford team play rings around the Army are wondering what manner of teams are Southern California, which beat Stanford, and California, which tied the Cardinals after having them apparently defeated until the final two minutes of play Stanford presented a bewilder- ing excellence in all-around play, but nothing essentially new in attack or defense. It must be that the Pacific Coast teams ace much better drilled in every phase of dBheir work. If not, then it must be that California climate again. Four Points for Field Goal Might Reduce Passes. It seems safe to say that the aver- age football fan heartily favors the proposal to amend the scoring rules to allow four points instead of three for a goal from the fleld. An addi- tional point allowance not only would encourage development of a deterio- rated football art, but, better still, would reduce the practice of Iindis- criminate forward passing by a losing team in the latter stages of the game. The desperate passing tactics of some teams this fall made the games look more like basketball than football, and very poor basketball at that. Teams That Pass in the Night Meet at Chicago in 1929. Some of the foremost. electrical shatps. of the country are said to be working on plans to illuminate ath- letic fields so that baseball and: foot- ball may be played at night as ef- fectively as it is now played in day-| light. The experiment has been tried before, with varying success, but the first big trial will be on November 9 next, when the Notre Dame Eleven plays Drake at night on Soldiers Field, Chicago. A vast illuminating system designed to flood the field with arti- ‘ficial daylight will be installed es- | pecially for the game. Big league base- ball magnates will make a careful check on the experiment. Braddock Riding High With Promoters Craving Audience. ‘ James J, Braddock, who until last Friday night was just one of the new voters over in North Bergen, N. J., finds himself basking in. the grateful glow of the spotlight as a result of his two- round knockout of not-so-tuffy Grif- fiths in the garden. Detroit, Boston, Chicago and Philadelphia all crave a look at the long, tall Jerseyman in action. eae But it is now James’ turn to do a little dictating as to terms and he will demonstrate his dynamite-laden right only when: some promoter comes across ina great, big way. A Brad- dock-Lomski: bout, with a champlion- ship match between the winner and Tommy Loughran, is the aim of Tom McArdle, garden matchmaker. Brad- dock may help himself to some softer pickings in the sticks before he risks Peer in a bout with the dangerous If Mr. McArdle a to pack his emporium again he might do worse than throw Braddock and Griffiths and Kid Chocolate and Joe Scalfaro in again. Any Ung. ce can happen when L CONTINUED ON PAGE rae COLUMN 1, W.& L. DROPS MARYLAND ELEVEN Generals End Rivalry; Old Liners May Play 11-Game Schedule. HE Maryland-Washington and Lee football series, which Maryland University officials had hoped to develop as an annual classic for the benefit of District fans, apparently has ended— for a year at least. Announce- 1 nt that Maryland will not be an op- ponent of the Generals next season was made last night by the Washington and Lee athletic council at Lexington, Va., although as far as could be learned no word of intention of disrupting the se- ries had previously reached authorities at College Park. In the absence of Curley Byrd, direc- tor of athletics, a spokesman for Mary- land declared that the action of the Washington and Lee council was a dis- tinct surprise, since a verbal agreement b<' ween the two institutions had led to the assumption that the Generals would be met on the gridiron here every year. There is a remote possibility that Maryland will be met in a post season game, the Washington and Lee state- ment declared. No reason was assigned by the coun- cil for the abandonment of the Mary- land game, but it was thought that the date, November 23, was left open to allow the Generals to get plenty of rest before tackling Florida, which has scored three overwhelming victories over them in the last three years, while it also was presumed that the scanty attendance at Maryland-W. and L. games heretofore was a contributing factor. This leaves Maryland with two open dates in its 1929 schedule, November 23 when W. and L. was to have been played, and October 19. Director Byrd had planned to find an opponent for the latter date while attending the meeting of the Southern Conference in Baton Rouge, La., December 15, but it now appears that Byrd will seek two games at the conclave. If Byrd fills the November date, which is on the Saturday before the Terrapins’ annual Thanksgiving clash with Johns Hopkins, as well as October 19, the Maryland gridmen next season wiN face a schedule of eleven games, an unusual number for a college team. Teams already definitely scheduled by Maryland for 1929 are Washington College, North Carolina University South Carolina University, Virginia Military Institute, Virginia Polytechnic, Yale, University of Virginia, Johns Hop- kins and Western Maryland, the last named being listed for December 7 in the season’s finale. Cleveland Boxer Freed In Death of Opponent, 19 Sandusky, Ohio, Dec. 3 .(A.P.).— Chuck Mangan, Cleveland lightweight boxer, was exonerate. by Coroner A, R. Grierson today of any blame for the death of Donald “Tiger” Huff, 19-year- ware a bout -here last Wednesday night. Mangan and Hu; were engaged in the sixth and last round of their con- test when Huff collapsed and died within a few minutes.

Verdict Is Unpopular; Sends “Battler’’ to Mat in 9th. Special to The Washington. Post. 4ALTIMORE, Md., Dec. 3-—Marty Gallagher, youthful Washington, D. C. heavyweight, was awarded the decision over “Battling” Levinsky, Philadelphia veteran of hundreds of battles, after twelve rounds of fighting tonight in the feature bout of the card at the 104th Regiment Armory. A furious rally by Gallagher in the final stages of the bout gained him the decision although the award was unpopularly greeted. For eight rounds, Levinsky brought his wealth of ring craft into play and jabbed Gal- lagher at long range, uppercutting him in the infighting and keeping his gloves in the District boy’s face con- tinually until the latter was confused. In the clinches Levinsky not only tied Gallagher up neatly but managed to keep his irritating left finding Marty’s face, chin and ears. From the ninth on, however, Gallagher was the master, his punches proving the more solid. He disregarded a bloody nose that had been oozing claret since the second round and steamed up his at- tack under which the veteran quickly wilted. At the start, Gallagher was slow with his punches. He stepped in continually but for some reason he could not seem to shoot his gloves as he went. The consequence was that Levinsky usually met him with a left to the face and pro- ceeded~to massage him with his left as Gallagher tried vainly to land a punch, Gallagher landed his first real blow in the fifth. It was a solid right to the body and did the “Battler” untold harm. Later he came through with a left to the face and won that round easily. Taking the offensive in earnest in the ninth, Gallagher sent Levinsky to the floor, but it appeared that the vet- eran was hampered by a bandaged knee and he was not stepping lively at the time. The tenth found Levinsky tiring perceptibly, and Gallagher began to shoot his hardest blows of the fight. There was some steam tin the Washingtonian’s punches, and while many of them missed, sey- eral landed with telling effect. In the twelfth, Gallagher rushed out with determination in an effort to beat Levinsky by a knockout, a feat accom- plished only by Jack Dempsey and Carpentier, and he opened a cut over Levinsky's left eye. Seeing that he hed the veteran at a disadvantage, Galla- gher steamed up his attack and was battering Levinsky at a lively clip at the close. Gallagher weighed 191 Levinsky 189. a pounds and ——— International League Votes to Oppose Draft Toronto, Ont., Dec. 3 (A.P.).—Three important minor leagues met in annual session today and although the club owners spent many hours in baseball discussions, apparently little ground was covered, After the first session John Conway Toole was still president of the Inter- national League, although rumors had persisted that a movement would be launched to cut off his official head. The draft, the all-absorbing topic to feature the annual convention of the National Association of Professional Baseball Clubs opening Wednesday, was discussed by the International clubs which voted to oppose any amend- ments to the present “modified draft,” as it applies to class AA leagues The American Association did not announce - the consensus developed in its discus- sion. The Western League previously voted opposition to unrestricted draft. Braddock’s Next Test To Be Fight With Lomski Special to The Washington Post. New York, Dec. 3.—If. the caull- flowers whose services he seeks are willing to accept reasonable terms, several good matches will be bagged by Matchmaker Tom McArdle, of Madi- s0n Square Garden, within the next 24 hours McArdle is hot after a Leo Lomski-James J.: Braddock bout for the latter part of January. Brad- dock, whose fistic stock hit the ceiling when he tagged the not-so-tough Tuffy Griffiths on the chin the other night, has virtually accepted terms, but ar- rangements can not be consummated until Lomski is heard from.

Losses in most of the active issues were held to a point or two as Supporting orders were thrown into the market, but sev- eral of the High-priced specialties broke 4 to nearly 10 points. High call money rates and fears of another huge increase in stock exchange member loans, which proved to be well founded as the actual figures issued after the close of the market showed a gain of $511,000.000, stimulated the selling movement. Further weakness cropped “out in Canadian Marconi and allied issues. Canadian Marconi, which sold as high as 28° only last week, opened with a block of 42,600 shares at 8%, dipped to 7% and then rallied to 8%, off 1% points net. Marconi of England im- proved slightly and Marconi Interna- tional closed fractionally lower, but Spanish & General fell back nearly 2 points. Oils were liquidated rather freely despite predictions of more stock split- ups and mergers in the next few months. Illinois Pipe Line broke 8% points on a few sales and Gulf, Hum- ble, Ohio. Vacuum and Standard Oils of Kentucky and Ohio lost 1 to 3 points. Prairie Pipe Line showed inde- pendent strength by running up 7 points to 271 Initial trading took place in the new Prairie Pipe Line common, which ranged between 53 and 55%. Public Utilities fluctuated in rather erratic fashion. Electric Bond & Share opened at 159%, broke 6 points and then rallied to 161, up 2% points net. Southeastern Power “when issued” stock sold down more than 3 points. United Gas & Improvement dropped nearly 5 points, but recovered more than half its loss. Deere & Co., Ford of Canada, Fire- stone Tire, Lane Bryant, Richman Bros., and Singer Manufacturing drop- ped 4 to 9 points on odd-lot sales. A few issues moved against the general downward trend, notably American Milling, Comstock Tunnel, Hazeltine, Sheaffer Pen and Todd Shipyard, all of which sold at the year’s high prices. Trading failed to maintain the ter- rific pace set last week, the day’s transactions falling well below 2,000,- 000 shares. Boat Builders Suing U. S. Win $3,083,732 Verdict (Associated Press.)

= ‘OW GAMBLING WN CITIZENS’ PPROMAL “Kenilworth Association Lauds Capt. Stott, Urges Other Officials to Follow Suit. -RESOLUTION PROMISES SUPPORT TO HAVENNER Five Other Groups Assemble; Mrs. Saunders Elected by Cathedral Heights. A résolution recommending that all police captains follow the lead of Capt. William A Stott, of the Third Precinct, in warning his men that he will recom- mend drastic punishment for any mem- ber of his command who frequents gambling establishments running in his precinct. was adopted last night at a meeting of the Kenilworth Citizens Association in the Kenilworth School. Five other associations also met last night. In commending Capt. Stott for his action in “reading the riot act” to members of his command, the associ- ation members declared all policemen should be warned to keep clear of gambling houses while off duty in order that the present situation might be “cleaned up and cured of any con- taminating influence.” Havenner Is Supported. A resolution conveying to Dr. George Havenner, president of the Federation of Citizens’ Associations, the associa- tion’s confidence in his integrity and wisdom in the recent selection of com- mittee assignments also was adopted. John S. Driggers presided. Mrs. Harriet Saunders was elected President of the Cathedral Heights- Cleveland Park Association at their meeting in St. Alban’s Parish Hall. Other officers named are: First vice president, Grahame Powell; second vice president, Edward R. Walton; secretary, John W. Townsend; treasurer, Miss Sarah F. Schroeder, and delegates to the Federation of Citizens’ Association, George R. Wales and Hugh M. Framp- ton. District Suffrage Not Favored. A majority of the score or more of letters received from the 400 congres- sional representatives to whom officers of the Dupont Circle Citizens Associa- tion. wrote recently asking for their views on the question of national rep- resentation for the District of Colum- bia, were opposed to granting local suffrage. The letters were read at a meeting of the association yesterday afternoon in the Mayflower Hotel. The association is on record as opposed to the granting of suffrage for the District. The association voted to cooperate with people’s counsel in seeing that the interests of the public are pro- tected at the valuation proceedings of the Washington Gas Light Co. before the Public Utilities Commission. ‘The action was taken on motion of Maj. Clayton E. Emig. Dr. Llewellyn Jordan, of the Takoma Park Association, addressed the asso- ciation last night on the movement to eliminate the menace of grade cross- ings in the Takoma Park section of Maryland. Demarest Lloyd, president, presided A resolution requesting the Board of Education to provide immediately additional] portables at the Whittier School, to relieve congestion in that building, was adopted last night at a meeting of the Manor Park Association. The meeting was held in the Whittier School. ‘The association also adopted a resolu- tion requesting removal of trolley poles on Third street, betwéen Kennedy and Whittier streets. Twenty-seven new members were admitted. The Sixteenth Street Highlands Citi- vens Association, meeting in the Sixth Presbyterian Church, Fourteenth and Kennedy streets northwest, adopted a resolution requesting Col. U. S. Grant, $d, superintendent of public buildings and grounds, to take steps to have Mor- row drive straightened where it enters Sixteenth street at Rock Creek Park, so as to meet Kennedy street. World Court Stand Told By Senator T. J. Walsh Equality with other nations is all the United States seeks, Senator Thomas J. Walsh, of Montana, said at the weekly forum luncheon of the Woman’s Na- tional Democratic Club at its clubhouse yesterday in explaining why the Senate added reservation No. 5 to United States entry into the Permanent Court of International Justice. ‘ Much rests, according to the senator, on whether it is decided a majority or unanimous vote is necessary to lay be- fore the court a request for an ad- visory opinion. It was to assure unan- imity which would make all nations equal, it was said, that the reservation in question was added by the Senate. Dr. George Kober Heads Tuberculosis Fighters Dr. George M. Kober was elected president of the Washington Tubercu- losis Association at the twentieth an- niversary meeting of that organiza- tion held last night at the Y. W. C. A. Other officers elected are: Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, vice president; Wal- ter S. Pratt, jr. treasurer, and Walter 8. Ufford, secretary. The following were reelected direc- ‘tors of the association for five-year ‘terms: Dr. Harry S. Bernton, Mrs. Joseph Sanders, Dr. F. C. Smith, Mrs. Wesley Martin Stoner, Walter S.

Both princes arrived here after participating in the wedding ‘of their cousin, Count Folke Bernadotte, of Wisbourg, to Miss Estelle Manville, American heiress, at Pleasantville, N. Y. They were scheduled to leave for New York on the midnight express. The royal guests are tail, serious- faced young men, of sturdy, Scandi- navian type, who appeared to take the pleasures and entertainment lavished on them yesterday in the nature of duties to be performed. They smiled seldom, although ‘each appeared to quietly enjoy the vrrious phases of their visit. Shortly after arrival at the Swedish Legation, they were escorted by Minis- ter Bostrom to the White House, where President Coolidge received .them in- formally. At the White House lunch- eon, in addition to the princes, were & small group of guests including the Minister of Sweden and Mme. Bostrom, Count and Countess Folke Bernadotte and Count and Countess Carl Berna- dotte. After the luncheon, Minister Bostrom took his visitors to Mount Vernon, the party later returning to the legation for tea. Throughout the visit, the in- formal nature of the princes’ stay here was stressed and efforts were made to prevent any display of formality. Ac- companying them was Baron Sigfried R. Raalamb. lieutenant in the Royal Guard, who acted as aide de camp. Other Swedish visitors, in the United States to attend the Folke Bernadotte wedding, arrived later for the informal dinner at the legation. They in- cluded Countess Elsa Bernadotte and Baroness Sophie Fleetwood, sisters of the bridegroom; Count Carl Bonde, master of the king’s horse, and his wife, the Countess Ebba Bonde; Count Nils Wachtmeister and Countess Gun- hild von Rosen. Many who yesterday greeted the two princes here recalled that their father, the Crown Prince of Sweden, was a vis- itor in Washington a little more than a year 2g0. Their mother was the crown prince’s ,first wife, Princess Margaret of Connaught. Chest Admits Nine More Social Units ALL FORMALITY SHUNNED, Time for Applications Is Extended for Week; Total Members Now 48.

Comment on Other City Enforcement Work. AIDS’ LAW PLEAS CUT OUT Praise of the liquor law enforcement activities of the police force was one of the few comments on municipal af- fairs made by the Distirct Commis- sioners in their annual report submit- ted to Congress yesterday. “It its most gratifying to the Com- missioners to note that the Police De- partment has in no measure relaxed in its efforts to bring about the fullest | possible measure of enforcement of the | Various liquor laws,” the Commission- ers said. They offered no comment of rany other law enforcement activity, | but quoted from statistics contained in | the report submitted to them several | months ago by Maj. Edwin B. Heese, Superintendent of Police. The Commissioners had no _ sug- gestions to offer Congress in their re- port, which was almost entirely a sum- mary of the reports submitted to the Commissioners by the various- depart- ment heads months ago and made public at that time. The Commissioners evidently were desirous that their department heads should not assume the role of advo- cates of legislation for the District, or improvements in their departments, for the plans for improvements and vari- ous department recommendations were eliminated and the report made largely a statistical affair. They did repeat the recommendation of William H. Harland, director of traffic, for legislation which will give the Police Court greater discretion in the imposition of jail sentences for traffic offenses where jail sentences now aré mandatory.

Schwartz, attorney. When court ad- journed for the afternoon session, Hay- den, ired by the manner the attorney questioned him, accosted Schwartz in the corridor outside the courtroom and demanded an apology.

When the court resumed in the after- noon, the incident was reported to Jus- tice Bailey. Hayden was called before the bar and the sentence was pro- nounced. Hayden was held in custody ee arrangements to pay his fine were made.
