CREW NOT PROPERLY LED, ASSERTS JESSUP Chief Engineer Is Attacked; U.S. Captain Urges Drastic Changes in Ships. New York, Dec. 6 (A.P.).—The cause of the hidden leaks that sank the liner Vestris remained a mystery of the sea today, but in official reports of British and American nautical observers at the Federal inquirg into the disaster there came more criticism of the late Capt. William Carey and his crew for thelr conduct in the crisis. Only speculative causes for the dis- aster were contained in the official re- ports of Capt. Henry McConkey, British acviser, and Capt. E. P. Jessop, Amer- ican adviser to United States Commis- sioner O'Neill, who has been hearing testimony on the disaster since the week of November 11, when the vessel foundered off the Virginia Capes with a loss of more than 100 lives. Commissioner O'Neill took the reports under consideration, as Federal Attor- ney Tuttle called before the commis- sioner J. L. Crone, supervising inspector of the United States Steamboat Inspec- tion Service, which examined and passed the Vestris as seaworthy three days before she sailed on her last voy- age. The finding of the commissioner Is the next step expected in the investiga- tion. Should Have Called Aid. Both Capt. McConkey and Capt. Jes- sop agreed that Capt. Carey should have called for help six hours before he sent his S O S on the morning of No- vember 12. Both agreed that one con- tributing cause of the disaster was the pumping out of the starboard tanks, which reduced the stability of the ship, and both severely criticized the lack of organization in the loading and lower- ing of lifeboats, two of which carried all the children and many of the women down with the vessel. While Capt. McConkey, however, said testimony indicated the Vestris was sea- worthy at the start of the voyage, Capt. Jessop declared: “Any vessel unable to stand a storm for 18 hours is not fit tc send to sea.” The Vestris ran into rough weather Sunday night and sank early Monday afternoon. “I don’t believe that all seafaring history holds such an incident,” Capt. Jessop said. “The crew seems to have been competent if led, but they were not led. The passengers were the most tractable that could have gone to sea.” Chief Officer Cleared. “The testimony inevitably ‘points to the incompetence of the executive of- ficers of the vessel,” he said, adding that the master and the chief officer must be “men of initiative, Judgment and what we call guts to handle a situ- ation of this kind.” The captain absolved F. W. Johnson, chief officer of the vessel, but bitterly denounced J. A. Adams, chief engineer, for attempting to fight the inrushing water with inadequate pumps. While Capt. McConkey made no sug- gestions in his report, Capt. Jessop rec- ommended, among other things: That all ocean-going vessels carry wireless, That all sea connections be located where they may be inspected at sea. That a method of testing lifeboats for water-tightness be inaugurated by the Steamboat Inspection Service. That life-belts be changed in de- sign so as to keep an exhausted person's head and shoulders above the water. That executive ability be considered in the examination of officers.

More than 2.000 persons, including the entire judiciary and court officials of Washirgton and nearby cities, legal luminaries from many parts of the country and District leaders in official, social and residential circles, were pre- sented. While lacking somewhat in the colorful atmosphere usual at the Diplomatic and Army and Navy recep- tions at the White House, last night’s function was most impressive. Pic- turesqueness was given by the presence of many Army, Navy and Marine Corps officers in full uniform. The event also served as a reunion of Congress, as it was the first reception since the new session began. Many senators and representative were noted in the long line which passed before the President and Mrs. Coolidge, who stood together near the door of the blue room to receive their guests. The Chief Justice and Mrs. Taft ar- rived early and were escorted directly to the red room, where the associate justices of the United States Supreme Court and their wives were assembled.

HOPE FOR MERGER ELD NOT DIMMED Wilson Says All Evidence Is in, and Foes May Now Help on Plans. ONE REPORT IS CRITICIZED Traction interests still hope to bring about a merger of the local street rall- way companies, despite the unfavorable report made on their plan yesterday by Dr. Milo R. Maltbie, the New York utilities expert. At least, this was the interpretation placed on a_ statement made last night by Harley P. Wilson, who spon- sored the present merger movement.

However, this Wilson did stress the fact that Maltbie pointed out the need of a merger. John W. Childress, chairman of the local Public Utilities Commission, which had urged Congress to approve the merger agreement, came out last night with the flat statement that he saw nothing in Maltblie’s report which raised insuperable obstacles. to a con- summation of the merger. The report of Dr. Maltbie, who was hired by the Senate District committee to study the merger question, was on most important points at direct vari- ance with the report of the Bureau of Efficiency, which also made an vestigation Whereas, the bureau upheld a $50,- 000,000 valuation for the proposed con- solidated company, Maltbie condemned it as excessive, and predicted that it would result in a fare raise. “Apparently,” said Mr. Wilson last night, “it is a case where experts dis- agreed.” The statement made by Wilson was given to the press by Brice Clagett, who with former Secretary of the Treasury William Gibbs McAdoo, has been acting as counsel] for Wilson in the merger proceedings, - “I have not seen the text of either the Bureau of Efficiency or the Dr. Maltbie reports on the merger,” he said in his statement. “I understand, how- ever, that the first recommends the approval of the merger agreement as voted by the Public Utilities Commis- sion and by the House District com- mittee, with possibly minor altera- tions and that Dr. Maltbie suggests radical changes on valuation. “I gather that the Bureau of Effi- clenccy abides by the court decision, CONTINUED ON PAGE 3, COLUMN 3. 17 or More Drown When Ships Collide in- Captain’s Son Among Those Lost as Chilean Steamer Is Sunk.

PRICES DECLINE FROM $5 TO $20 A SHARE Street Knows Why, but Won- ders Who Sent Cash Rates Up to 12 Per Cent. New York, .Dec. 6 (N.Y.W.N.S.)—In the most drastic decline in six months tha stock market today slumped from its record high marks and moved down- ward, dragging with it thousands of small investors who were riding along to extra fat Christmas stockings on the crest of the bull market. derly but decisive rout. Prices It was an or- of more than 100. stocks dropped from $65 to 822.50 a share as selling orders from all over the country poured on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange. Twenty leading tin- dustrials dropped an average of $9.45 a share. Twenty representative rail se- curities fell $4.38 a share. The day's’ trading was 5,400,200 shares, and so great was the tide of selling at the close of the day that the ticker did not stop until 3:58 o’clock, 58 minutes late. Call Money Rise Decisive. The immediate cause in the turn in the tide which forced such stocks as United States Steel to drop 6'!4 points, General Electric 11 points and Mont- gomery Ward 2214 points was a rise in cali money from 9 to 12 per cent, the highest market since July 2. Call money, the food on which. the stock market thrives, started at 9 per cent. Finencial tickers reported money plentiful and that the rate might go down during the day. Shortly after noon, however, call money advanced to 10 per cent. Shortly before 2 o'clock it was 11, and during the last hour of trading it rose to 12 per cent. Who raised the money rates? That was what Wall street wanted fo know— who and what? The “what” plained by such factors as ‘ncreased bank reserve requirements as financial institutions got théir dow dressing” in shape for port to the Comptroll’. o: ury; Thanksgiving currency demands which took millions out of banks to pay for the holiday, payment of bills during the first ten days of the month, preparation by corporations of huge dividend and interest payments the first of the year and “earmarking” of gold from various banks by the Federal Reserve Bank. “Who” Hard to Answer.

Who the bankers are was any man’s guess. Another story was that the head of one of New York's largest banks while issuing optimistic statements that the bull market had only started, quietly sold large blocks of stock and smiled to himse.f today as th. break came. But Wall street is prolific of stories. The market opened irregularly. Some stocks advanced to new highs, among them Burroughs ‘Adding Machine and A. M. Byers, which’ reached 200 and 205, respectively. Then call money went up 1 per cent and the wave of selling began, to increase in volume until just before closing time, when it reached the proportions of a _ tidal wave, The gossip All Sections Affected. Stop loss orcers swelled the begin- ning of the selling wave as ca money advanced. All stocks, high-priced, low-priced and medium were caught in the sweep of the downward movement. As the selling got under way,.in vol- ume the governor of the Federal! Re- serve Bank, in Richmond, Va., issued a statement in which he emphasized the “dangerous condition” of the mar- ket and co.demned the practice of large corporations in usin, ‘seir sur- plus funds in call loans. Eight years ago, call money went up to 14 per cent. A few months earlier, in February, 1920, the rate went to 20 per cent, while November 12, 1919, call money was 30 per cent. Then oldtimers in the “street” laughed at some of the youngsters who remarked that money was tight. The former could remember occasions when call money went as high as 200 per cent, but that was before the days of the Federal reserve system. Business Loans Huge. The extent to which corporations are lending in the call money market was shown in this week’s statement of broker’s loans as reported to the Fed- eral reserve system. Of the total of $5,394,590,000, corporations were lend- ing $2,285,280,000, a decrease of $1.724,- 000 from the previous week but an in- crease of $1,309,151,000 for the same week of 1927. On the first of the year and the suc- ceeding days. the large corporations of the country will be called upon to pay more than $%2,000,000,000 in interest and dividends. Consequently, many of them have been disposing of their se- curity holdings to build up an impos- ing cash surplus for dividend purposes. Attracted by the high money rate, millions of dollars were cabled from Europe today to meet the demands cf the market tomorrow. Indications of the inflow of foreign funds in the last few days are shown in the decline of ‘tle pound sterling and the Canadian dollar, both of which have now reached the gold export point where it wil] be- come cheaper for London and Montreal to ship gold to New York instead of buying exchange here, . .

Dooley, Aged Officer of Government Printing Office Organization, Reports Paying Interest From Retirement Allotment for 5 Years. In reporting yesterday to the board of directors of the Job-Room Immedi- ate Relief Society of the Government Printing Office, that approximately $5,000 of the funds of the suciety be invested with an Ohio banking com- ‘pany had been lost with the failure of the company, George A. Dooley, aged secretary-treasurer of the society, and retired employe of the printing office, unfolded a tale of self-imposed finan- cial sacrifice that he had endured since the failure five years ago. The approximately 1,400 members of the society, all employed at the Gov- ernment Printing Office, will share equally the loss, it was learned last night. Although Mrs. L. B. Clark, wife of the president of the board of di- rectors, would not disturb her husband last night for the purpose ot explan- ation, it was learned no action is con- templated against Dooley. who lives at 327 Seventh street northeast During the last five vears, since the failure of the R. L Dollings Banking Co., of Columbus, Ohio, and thw sub- sequent legal action against its presi- dent and other officials, Dooley has been paying interest on the amount invested at the rate of 7 per cent out of his retirement allotment, he said. Unable to continue financing the in- vestment out of the small annual re- tirement fund he receives, Dooley yes- terday decided to make a report to the officials of the society. He reported that he placed the fund with the Ohio company upon the ad- vice of officials of local banks, and one of the advisors’ sister was said to have lost $10,000 with the failure of the same company. | Dooley last night told a reporter for The Washington Post he did not report the incident at the time of the failure of the Ohio company because he be- lieveci he would be able to get the fund returned through the _ receivers in which funds of the defunct company was placed. “I made a frank report of the aftai: to the board of directors.” Dooley said. “Despite the fact that it cost me a large part of the yearly retirement allotuent 1 received, I was willing to protect the interests of members of the society as long as I could afford it.” |} part publicity on the armaments man- | STEADILY: Liga ANAILTY FELT Fever Drops and Infection Is More Localized, Say Doctors.

The king was car- ried 10 miles before proper medical at- tention could be found, and he suffered intensely. The crowd around the palace gates was more than 2,000 again today and expressions of “Good!” and “That's better!” greeted the posting of the morning and evening bulletins.

Continuance of experimentation and research in the field of fundamental flight problems is recommended in the annual report of the national advisory committee for aeronautics made public Yesterday on its submission to Con- gress. The report declares that “the great- est stimulation to the development of aeronautics will come from the edu- cation of the public by the private use Of airplanes and by the safe opera- tion of commercial air lines. These will come with the solution of the serious and difficult problems of navigating and landing in fog,” ts says. “The development of instruments which will indicate the true position of the aircraft when flying without ths assistance of ground vision, and the development of adequate communi- cation systems are problems now pressing for solution in order that air aasport services mary be operated with assurance of safety and relia- bility.” a Polish Minister to U. 8.

ANOTHER LAD IS WINNER Chicago, Ill., Dec. 6 (A.P.).— Two young farm boys from the same county in fowa have flaunted tradition and placed their names indelibly upon the annals of the International Livestock Exposition alongside State universities and veteran cattle raisers. These lads, symbolical of modern youth in this epoch-making stock show, are Clarence Goecke, 12, of State Cen- ter, and Keith Collins, 15, of Liscomb, both in Marshall County, Iowa, who shared the premier honors of the ex- position in the two chief classes of competition against the Nation’s best. It was the first time youngsters have won these highest prizes. Young Goecke made the old-timers sit back and wonder as his grand cham- pion steer of the show went off the auction block today for more than $8,000, at 87 per pound, almost dou- bling the previous high price for kings of the steers. Other prize money brought his total to more than $9,000. Winner in Carcass Class. Rivaling the 12-year-old champion was Collins, in the carcass class, whose steer triumphed over all others to win first prize in its class, one representing the pinnacle of success in steers on the hoof and the other the apex of animals slaughtered. Veteran exhibitors at the annual ex- position considered it remarkable not only that two lads should be elevated to the topmost honors of the exposition, but also that both should be 4H Club boys from the same county, neighbors. Collins’ champion steer carcass is yet to be sold, but it too likely will yield a record price. Each boy also has two more steers to be disposed of and stockmen are looking forward to additional surprises when these animals go on the market. Winner Remains Unmoved. The auction of the champion steer established almost undreamed of rec- ords when the J. C, Penney Co., of New York, backed by a man who himeelf hed risen from an impecunious farm lad, bid more than $8,000 for the beast.

The action 1s regarded as marking a wide-open split between the Jabor organization and the government. The resolutions also withdrew “Crom” delegates from participation in the Congress of Representatives of Work~ ers and Employers, which is consider- ing the projected labor legislation of Portes Gil, Mexico’s provisional presi- dent It was decided, too, to hold further sessions of the “Crom” convention at the Teatro Tivoli del Eliseo instead of the Teatro Hidalgo, as heretofore, in- asmuch as the Teatro Hidalgo is the property of the government, Action Follows Message. Today's actions followed upon a més- sage sent by President Gil to the con- vention denying charges made in the course of its early sessions that mem- bers of the “Crom” were being perse- cyted in various parts of Mexico, and denying that he had been active against the organization while he was governor of the state of Tamaulipas, in which the City of Tampico is located, and where mych of Mexico's oll industry is centered. The chamber of deputies met tonight to consider the situation growing out of the split. While the meeting was in session a small crowd of manifestants gathered outside and shouted: “Down with Morones.” He is president of Crom convention. Representatives of the majority bloc spoke at the session, assuring Presi- dent Portes Gil of the support of the majority faction, and eriticizing the at- titude of the Crom. Contributing to the till feeling against Gil in the labor ranks was his action today in denying the request of the organization to interfere with pro- duction of a play at a local theater which offered an alleged criticism of the labor unions In the rejection of this request President Gil reiterated a statement made in his inaugural address, declar- ing that the right to criticize always will be fully respected and protected by his administration.

GRUISERS HELD NEED DESPITE PACT PLA Coolidge Feels U. S. Must Carry Out Program to Aid Defense. RETALIATION MOVE SEEN By ALBERT W. FOX. America’s crulser-building program, calling for fifteen 10-000-ton cruisers, is regarded by President Coolidge as indispensable without regard to any future possibility of an Anglo-Amer- ican agreement on the limitation of naval armaments, This was authoritatively made clear yesterday to correct what is described as a widespread popular misunder- standing of the true situation. Facts, hitherto undisclosed, were cited to dem- onstrate the true “urport of the Pres- ident’s recommendation to Congress on the question of cruiser building. It develops that A™erica must carry out this program to attain even the minimum of »-~*! strength for which the American delegation contended at the Anglo-American Geneva confer- ence. In his desire to put the naval arms limitation un a practical, effective basis and save the taxpayers from unwelcome burdens. President Coolidge sot a limit of 300,000 tons. T*7 completion of the proposed cruiser *--"**'»* wvrogram will put America’s cruiser strength on & basis of 305,000 tons. The British counterproposal at Ge- neva, it develops, called for a cruiser tonnage of 600,000. This means that the United States would have to double its cruiser-building program ‘all along the line to equal the British proposal. ‘It was partly for this reason that Presi- dent Coolidge re~>rded the program of the British as constituting an expan- sion rather than a limitation of naval armaments. Sought to Obtain Compromise. By way of compromise, the United States sought to obtain agreement upon a 400,000-ton cruiser basis, but this effort failed. The present building pro- gram of the United States, in the all- important matter of modern cruisers, calls for a tonnage which will be 100,000 tons short of the tonnas2 which would have been agreed upon if the Geneva maval conference had not gone upon the rocks. Thus, if Great Britain and the United States were to reach an agree- ment on naval arms limitation tomor- row, there would be the same insist- ence on the part of the Coolidge ad- ministration to complete the cruiser- building program now before the Sen- ate. And there would likewise be the need of further expansion of America’s cruiser strength in order to put the United States Navy on parity with whatever terms the British and Ameri- can delegations might agree to. The matter of agreeing to a cruiser tonnage of less than 400,000 has never been considered by the British, and the American delegation already has gone on record as conceding this ton- nage to be a fair measure of limitation. There have been repeated intima- tions reaching official circles that the American public regards the present cruiser building program as a sort of retaliatory measure against the British because the latter did not come to terms with the American delegation at Geneva. Retaliation May Be Necessary, It is not denied that some sort of retaliatory naval expansion may be necessary in the future to maintain American parity with the British in sea power but for the present, it is ex- plained, there are no steps being taken in that direction and the present | MISS SADIE LOVE. Currency Burns In Motor Crash Notes on Way to Treasury for Redemption Scattered in Collision. A. large sum of mutilated currency, en route to the United States Treas- ury to be redeemed, yesterday was scat- tered and some of it burned on Queens Chapel road, just inside of the Dis- trict line,. when an automobile oper- ated by Miss Sadie Love, secretary of the president of the Prince Georges County Bank of Hyattsville, Md., col- lided with a bus of the Washington Railway & Electric Co., resulting in painful burns for Miss Love and cuts and shock for William Bowle, assistant cashier of the bank, occupants of the machine. Reserves of the Twelfth Precinct were called out to guard the money until it was gathered up, and Miss Love was taken to Sibley Hospital for treatment for burns to her legs. Her condition is not serious. Bowie refused hospital treatment. : At the time of the accident Miss Love, who is 24 years old, and lives on Queens Chapel road, just beyond the District line, was driving Bowle to the Treasury Department. Miss Love’s machine caught fire following the collision, and the fire was extin- guished by companies of the local Fire Department that responded. The bus was driven by Raymond Campbell, of 618 A street southeast. Many Here Oppose Raskob Conference Session Now Would Harm Party, Southern Members of Congress Say. Southern members of Congress who voted for Gov. Alfred E. Smith for President are opposed to the suggestion of John J. Raskob, Democratic national committee chairman, for a conference on plans for the future. They believe the best course for the next six months or longer is to let the old sores in their respective States heal. They are afraid that. any meeting now would do more harm than good. “I do not think the Raskob plan for a conference early in the new year ‘is a wise one,” said Senator Overman, of North Carolina, yesterday. “Reports to building program is not to be regarded in that light. The purpose of the new cruiser building program is to replace ships which will be obsolete by the time the modern cruisers are ready for service. Because of the fact that the older ships will be obsolete, the effective cruiser tonnage on the basis of the present building program will not go higher than 305,000 tons. In other ‘ words, the Coolidge administration is putting tnto effect the naval program which the American delegation at Geneva outlined as the minimum re- quirements for American national de- fense. No word has reached the State De- partment from any official source which warrants an assumption that an- other naval arm limitation conference will be held prior to 1931. There will be a conference in this latter year, in conformity to the terms of the Wash- ington Arms Conference of 1921-22 The question of applying limitation to cruisers of 10,000 tons and under will come up for consideration at that time * along with all matters, such as limita- tion of submarines. The actual cruiser strength of the United States, it is pointed out, neces- sarily will be an important factor in Oneness SEEN aU RENE 7 BERS OR nT Set oO Sago ee ee DIED BENNETT—On Thursday, December 6, 1928, at his’ residence, 1910 Second street northeast, ANDREW JACKSON. meaved husband of Margaret S.

If America is lagging behind and shows no offert tokeep pace with Great Brit- ain and Japan, there will be no rea- son whatever for the British or Jap- anese to consider cruiser limitations, it is explained. If, on the other hand, America’s cruiser strength showed signs of keep- ing pace, it is generally conceded that Great Britain and Japan would be dis- posed to limiting cruiser tonnage as a safeguard against possible expansion by the United States. Limitation of capital ship tonnage was agreed to by the British at the Washington Con- ference, it is recalled, because’ the American building program threatened to outstrip the program of the British navy. The United States overnment will call the 1931 conference. It may be held early in 1931 instead of late in that year, as the stipulation in the Washington Treaty simply names the year 1931, without reference to which part of the year.

(VER PARTY SNS | Costumes of Women Blaze HOOVER FART ol At White House Keception QUUTHWARD 10 CHILE President-Elect to Greet Bo- livian Representatives at Antofagasta. CHEERED BY THOUSANDS ._ Aboard the U. 8. 8. Maryland, Dec. 6 (U. P.).—The battleship Maryland con- tinued its journey southward tonight. carrying Herbert Hoover to Antofagasta. Chile where he will receive a delegation of Bolivian government representatives. Bolivia was not included in the itinerary, but the stop was arranged several days ago. The Bolivian repre- sentatives will travel overland to Anto- fagasta and board the battleship. Hoover sald good-by to Callav, Peru, port of Lima, at 2 a. m., after an en- thusiastic farewell by Peruvians. Sev- eral thousand persons were at the docks to shout a fina! cheer for the President- elect after his strenuous day in Lima. The launches bearing the Hoover party to the Maryland passed through rows of government and private vessels in the harbor, all brilliatntly lighted. Fireworks Display on Shore. A fireworks display was held on shore at the time of departure, and the party witnessed the final ceremonies from the deck of the battleship. Many cases containing gifts which were presented to President-elect and Mrs. Hoover and other members of the party in Lima were brought aboard the Maryland. The most valued gift for Hoover was an Inca robe, recently dis- covered when an ancie t tomb of the Indian capital was excavated. Archeol- Ogists said the robe was probably 2,000 years old. The Peruvian cruiser Almirante Grau, which escorted the Maryland to Callao, accompanied her southward. Hoover has virtually eliminated Mexi- co from his present tour, it was said. He may go direct tc Florida from Havana, Cuba. A plan to visit Mexico in February was considered. Palacios to Head Delegation. Antofagasta, Chile, Dec. 6 (U.P.).— Foreign Minister Palacios will head the | Bolivian delegation which goes aboard the Maryland to meet Herbert Hoover, | it was announced today by the Bolivian chief of protocol, who arrived here. A special train is bringing the dele- gation from La Paz, capital of Bolivia. The program was tndefinite and it was the battleship. WILSON ISSUES MERGER VIEWS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. while Dr. Maltbie thinks his own fig- ures better. Apparently it is a case where the experts disagreed. “It will be the duty of Congress to | decide whether or not we are to have a merger which the people of Wa: liing- ton have urged for 25 years and which even Dr. Maltble said will be in the public interest, Hopes Evidence Is In. “I understand Dr. Maltbie states that | solicitor General, wore a draped gown ‘with a untfled system service could be | improved, the amount of property re- quired adequately to serve the public reduced, and te cost of operation cur- tailed, and vehicular traffic accelerated and convenienced, “At least all the evidence appears to be in, and perhaps even the opponents of the merger will now Join in securing a prompt decision.” Chairman Childress, of the Public Utilities Commission, after declaring that he saw nothing in Maltbie’s report which raised any insuperable obstacles to a merger, said that Maltbie had sim- ply done his duty to his client, the Sen- ate District committee, in calling at- tention to all the facts and possibilities. Childress said that he and his col- leagues on the commission felt that the need..of a merger was greater than could be the consequences of any harm that might result from a merger. “So far as I know now,” he said, “the commission stands on the recommenda- tion it submitted to Congress at the last session.” This recommendation was for accept- ance of the merger agreement, provid- ing for a $50,000,000 valuation for 10 years, and containing a guarantee ot the present fare for one year, and Aa clause declaring that the merged com- pany would be “reasonably protected’ against competition. Maltbie Condemns Valuation, In his report to the Senate District committee, which was made public yes- terday, Dr. Maltbie not only con- demned a _ $50,000,000 valuation, but scored the proposal to set a specific period of time for a valuation or a fare rate. and declared that the reasonable protection clause would give the merged company a monopoly that might cven prevent competition by taxicabs. Senator Capper, of Kansas, chairman of the Senate District committee, sald last night that he and his colleagues would devote about a week or ten days to studying the reports of the bureau and Dr. Maltbie and then would begin hearings. Opposes Speculation Features, Senator Vandenberg, of Michigan, a member of the merger subcommittee, praised Dr. Maltbie’s report, especially his findings with regard to the $50,- 000,000 valuation. Now, he said, it will require much more evidence than has been thus far produced to justify such a valuation. “Speculative arithmetic should not be frozen into a permanent contract,” Vandenberg said. “I am in favor of a merger, and I still have an open mind, but it seems to me that the proper thing to do is to proceed on the pro- posed basis with the elimination of these speculative features.” Vandenberg suggested that one com- promise plan that might be adopted would be a plan whereby the merged company would be guaranteed a valua- tion for stock-issuing purposes for a five-year period, and the public would be protected against a fare raise for the same length of time.

Immigration Stirs Senate to Debate Skirmish Revolves Around Stands of Hoover and Smith on Problem. (Associated Press.) Congress had its first postcampaign political skirmish yesterday, revolving around the relative positions of Herbert Hoover and Gov. Smith on immigration and its mildness emphasized the let- down in the firing which blazed away so heavily from both sides prior to the national conventions last June. It was a debate in the Senate over the national origins clause of the im- migration act wnich would fix the number of immigrants coming into this country on the basis of immigrants already admitted from various coun- tries. Both Gov. Smith and Hoover figured in the running debate which went along for an hour or more, with various senators citing their immigra- tion stands, but without the heat ex- hibited in the sessions of six months ago. Finally the discussions ended quletly when the Boulder Dam bill was once again placed in its preferred place as the business at hand, and the Senate proceeded with this much disputed piece of legislation. -_-- —_- aie) ate oie | ate ote) ate | ate | ae is _ =— = eT ae te | ee | ote | ae | ate | ae) ats | ee | es —_— —- ais the green | were the two women judges of Wash: | ington, Judge Mary O’Toole and Judge | Mabe! | an ee — Marine , | Band Orchestra, which had played alJl | evening, moved into the east room and | women | ana in the | The Christmas motif | in the decorations in.! use of JULIUS GARFINCKEL&CO.

A Nation-wide, nonreformer dry or- ganization submerging if not displac- ing the Antisaloon League looms as a possibility out of an unusual gathering of drys here next week. There are to be meetings of the National Legislative Conference, the National Temperance Council and not by any means the least the continuation committee of the conference of 31 church and temper- ance organizations which said as early as last February that Gov. Smith should not pass. The meetings are separate and merely coincidental. They come here as a rou- tine part of their work. But out of them, embracing interlocking member- ships as they do, is expected to come expression at least of the movement for what might be termed a “super” dry organization, modeled along the lines of the new Association Against the Pro- hibition Amendment—that is, with men and women prominent in the Nation’s business and professional life and who have not been prominently identified with the dry cause heretofore. In one respect, as the drys put it themselves, it would be a step toward eliminating the “offensiveness’” of the dry cause or, in other words, the pro- fessional reformer. It would not be aimed directly at the displacement of the Antisaloon League, but necessarily would work toward its absorption. And because of this it would hardly meet with the warm en- couragement of that organization, to say the least. New Elements Sought. Of course, the new organization, should it develop, would necessarily have its mainspring in those groups that have heretofore been actively iden- ttfied with the dry movement, but the purpose. would be to place the new le- ment out in front as soon as it could be acquired—men such as Henry Ford and Thomas A. Edison. The drys have been considerably im- pressed by the imposing composition of the new wet organization with its Du Ponts, Atterburys, Wadsworths and the like. Quite an influential part of the citizenry is reflected in the new wet aggregation, in fact. It would probably Have been doing things by mow had not Gov. Smith taken its thunder. The governor presented such a problem to its high clientele by agreeing that prohibition was the burning issue of the day, that the organization kept rather quiet during the campaign, but undoubtedly it expects to renew its activities as soon as it can get some statistical argu- ments out of the election result Anticipating this, there are those a@mong the drys who want an organi- gation just as imposing. While it ts difficult to say just where the most eentiment for the new organization exists, it is probable that there is about #8 much in the W. C. T. U. as any- where, Victory Laid to Women. Except that the two organizations are dry in purpose the W. C. T. U. has never had much in common with the Antisaloon League. That the women brought about prohibition is axiomatic, that the league then took over the ‘administering of it is likewise accepted. The W. C. T. U. is the women’s organl- vation. It was the prevailing thought of its recent annual meeting in Boston that it should receive more credit for its accomplishment. It is not constitutionally constructed, however, to enter the field of the Anti- saloon League. Whenever its opinion of contemplated legislation is asked it gives it. It has Mrs. Lenna Lowe Yost, of Huntington, W. Va., established here for that purpose. But it does not eecek to dictate appointments or to have anything to do with the enforcement. Tt. has never laid itself open to the charge of ‘super’ government that is frequently flung at the Antisaloon League. Its attatude is that the pro- hibition amendment was adopted and ‘that the Government should enforce it. It has no advice now to offer Presi- dent-elect Hoover, an attitude in con- trast to that of other dry organizations. It is the desire to get away from the picture that the Antisaloon League gives to the prohibition cause that ts behind the movement for the new or- ganization. Whether it will take any definite form at next week’s gathering remains to be seen. Three Warnings Enough. It might be a logical offspring of the s0-called continuation committee of the conference representing 31 organiza- tions. Last fall and winter this organi- gation met at Atlantic City, Washing- ton and Jacksonville, its main purpose apparently being to sit at one of these places, shout that neither Smith, Reed nor Ritchie would ever be elected Pres- ident, then wait a month or so and sit eS gg 2.2.2.8, gg!

(Associated Press.) The far-flung activities of the United States Coast Guard in protecting the coasts of the Nation from smugglers, in aiding ships and persons in distress and patrolling ice-bound waters on watch for menacing icebergs in steamship lanes, were describéd yesterday in the annual report of the service. During the fiscal year of 1928 the re- port sald that the Coast Guard rescued 3.983 persons from perll, aided ships valued at 839,479,729 on which there were 17,383 persons and seized or re- ported for law violations 1,554 vessels The work of the Coast Guard In pre- venting the smuggling of liquor into this gountry, the report declared, has been satisfactory, but with the re- sources in vessels and men now in command, it said it is impossible to do more. Rum row, it stated, has been en- tirely wiped out. Farrell’s Name Given Senate for Approval (Associated Press.) The nomination of Patrick J. Farrell, of Vermont and the District of Colum- bia, to be a member of the Interstate Commerce Commission was sent to the Senate yesterday by President Coolidge Farrel] succeeds Commissioner John J Esch. The nominations of Claude R. Porter, of Iowa, and Clyde B. Aitchison. of Oregon, as members of the commis- sion also were sent to the Senate.

But after giving this warning It ap- pointed its continuation committee, embracing the most outstanding dry workers in the country, to visit the Kansas City and Houston conventions and generally to carry on. There ig nothing further now for it to carry on. Presumably it will disband. But it will be mighty hard for its members to go back to their individual organizations. It smacks too much of retrogression. It would be more ambitious to embrace the new idea. iY A 2 ee wg “ thre gh i pa ak ee Ty gi4 SO 8 in a Bee Ie aye Riess s'> * tad i Peden Sat : ; dade Kha) Iya ey THE WASHINGTON POST: FRIDAY. DECEMBER 7. 1928. a e+ HEARING TOMORROW ON MAMING OF WES Fight Looms Over Coolidge’s Nomination of Him as Interior Secretary. WHITING BELIEVED SAFE (Associated Press.) For a second time the choice by Pres- ident Coolidge of a member of his cab- inet is going to come under close scru- tiny, if not opposition, of the Senate. Transmittal yesterday by the Presi- dent of the nomination of Roy O. West, of Chicago, as Secretary of the Interior to the Senate for its confirmation brought Immediate demands there for a& hearing and a call for a special meet- ing of the public lands committee to consider the nomination tomorrow. In calling the committee meeting. Chairman Nye, said it was “quite ap- parent that there will be requests to have Mr West before the committee to make a response to questions grow- ing out of his appearance before the elections frauds committee in Chi- cago, where he testified to holding ex- tensive stock in the Samuel Insul] Util- itiy interests.”’ Among those who Indicated yesterday that they would like to question the Secretary were Senators Walsh (Demo- crat), Montana; Dill (Democrat), Wash- ington; and Norris (Republican), Ne- braska. Senator Walsh said he desired to ask Mr. West what steps he took to determine the legality of the Sait Creek Royalty Oil contract renewal to the Sinclair interests which recently was declared void by the Department o! Justice. President Coolidge obviously took some of the senators by surprise when he failed to send the nominations of Mr. West and Mr. Whiting for Sec- retary of Commerce to the Senate during the first two days of the session the opinion was growing that he might avoid the threatened fight against West by withholding the nominations. The two cabinet members who were ap- pointed during the recess to succeed Hubert Work as Interior Secretary, and Herbert Hoover, as Commerce Secretary, could have served until the close of the session of Congress without any Senate action.

The measure carries $13,500,000 for dry law enforce- ment.

Prohibition, Lozier declared, would not be an issue today if the Governs ment had made an “honest and de termined” effort to enforce it. MAYBE THIS WILL CORRECT C OMMON MISUNDERSTANDING THOSE who have heard the Ortho- phonic Victrola say it is the greatest musical instrument of all time. They will tell you it is ALL musical instru- ments in one, including the human voice. They will tell you that nothing takes its place... nothing... because the music it brings can be had in the home in no other way. One minute it is the Philadelphia Orchestra, with Leopold Stokowski conducting, and perhaps saying a few words to you. Five minutes later it is Lucrezia Bori or Maria Jeritza singing something you have heard her sing at the opera. Presto! ... and George Olsen or the Coon-Sanders Night Hawks are playing a dance-program that never signs off till you say. But there is some misunderstand- , ing that is shutting out this incompa- rable entertainment to thousands of people who want it. These are the people who think such an instrument is beyond their means. Or that it at least “‘costs a lot of money.”’ VICTOR TALKING MACHINE CO.,, Nothing is farther from THE NEW ORTHOPHONIC the fact. You can buy an Orthophonie Victrola for as little as $95, list. Not only that. If you want to pay a little down and so much a month, it can be arranged. Now that you know the truth, there is no longer any reason to deny your- self the sheer pleasure of Ortho- phonic ownership. Christmas is not far away. Dealers’ stocks are at their best. For yourself or for a fortunate friend, you could not invest money to better advantage. There are Orthophonic Victrolas, Victor adjustable-volume Electrolas, Automatic Victrolas and Electrolas which change their own records, and Victrolas and Electrolas with Radiolas in the same cabinet. This may mean much or little to you, but your Victor dealer will make it clear. The cabi- nets are as beautiful as the melodies that flow from them.

§ : -——S. So a ) TEN NUCHINE SETS TPE BY TELEGRAPH One Man in New York Soon May Operate Linotypes in Thousand Cities. HUMAN SPEED TREBLED Rochester, N. Y., Dec, 6 (AP.).— Frank E. Gannett, Rochester newspaper publisher, told 100 leaders of news ‘n- dustries here today that soon one man in New York may set the type in com- posing rooms of 1,000 American cities, doing it by telegraph. . “And,” he said, “looking into the fu- ture, it is not difficult to visualize the time when one operator, sending by wireless, will be able to set type in any or every city in the country. “Now, turn on the motors and I'll ana you something you never saw be- ore.” The guests looked at two typesetting machines which stood at one end of the room. A turn of an electric switch, and these machines began clicking rap- idly. They stood alone, robots facing their audience, with no human assist- ant close by, setting type by wire through the medium of a new inven- tion named the teletypesetter. Fast Speed Possible. “The possible speed of the automatic method,” said Mr, Gannett, “is proba- bly three times that of hand operation. And its accuracy is well-nigh perfect.” A man stepped to one of the type- setting machines, picked up some of the type lines it was setting, doing so in a manner to “jam” its operation and Stop the machine. Instantly, it seemed, the robot which was feeding a tape seven-eighths of an inch wide to operate the typesetting machine, also stopped running and the tape became motionless, A red light flared at the top of the typesetting machine and glowed until the artificial “jam” was set right. Im- mediately the machine began auto- matically setting type again. “You see,” said Mr. Gannett, “We think they are fool-proof so far as trouble from stoppage is concerned.” He showed how the tape was punched at one side of the room, which, for the purposes of the demonstration, was named “New York,” and the code of this punched tape carried across the room by wire with electrical Impulses to a receiving table where another ma- chine reproduced an exactly similar punched tape, and then transferred it through a third machine to operate the typesetting machines. Many Questions Asked “Questions?” said Mr. Gannett. Associated Press Photo. ALVEY.

Mr. Gannett answered that this ts feasible, and that men learn quickly to read the code punches of the tape itself, as they would read ordinary print. A facetious questioner wanted to know whether Mr. Gannett might some * time supply mechanical substitutes for reporters. The possible usefulness in transmitting directly into type fast | Woodrum | predicted “the average increase of those in the lower brackets runs from $60 to $120.” Woodrum Proves Correct. “Yes,” said Wood, “or about 5 per cent.”’ Representative Garrett (Democrat), Tennessee, recalled that Representative (Democrat), Virginia, had that the Welch act would bring about the situation that now ex- ists Woodrum Introduced a bill that would have given all employes a flat $300 increase. “The prophecy made by the gentle- man from Virginia at that time has | proven true,” continued Wood, “and it | Should simply impress upon the mem- | bers of this House how little we can and accurate market quotations was | specially stressed.

Reed is aller-i to have struck his wife in March, 1912, knocked her into a mud hole and held her in the water until she was drowned.

VICTIM WAS BLINDFOLDED Louisville, Dec. 6 (A.P.).—The abduc- tion of Ed Alvey, gambler, was planned by local men, in the opinion of Col. Roy W. Easley, c“ief of the Louisville Police Department, who raid today that “rerirdless of whether Mr. Alvey cooperates with us in our investigation, every effo:t will be made to appreherd those responsible.” Fear because -f widespread publicity and police rtivity today was believed to have caused the “gentleman kidnap- ers” to abandon their plot and release Alvey, 60 years old, .-lorful figure of the racing world, after holding him prisone~ nearly 54 hours. Alvey, none the worse for his long captivity, returr~1 to his home shortly before 1 o'clock this morning, having been released without payment of ran- som money. He had been kidnaped shortly after 6 o’clock Monday night while out for a walk in front of his home and was forced into an automo- bile by three unidentified men, one of whom covered him with a pistol. Prisoner Was Blindfolded, From the moment of his entry into the car until his release in a Louisville suburb about midnight identity of the abductors was carefully shielded from Alvey by bandages placed over his eyes. Col. Easley understands that Alvey gave is word to the kidnapers that he would not aid ‘he authorities in any way. Under Kentucky law kidnaping and holding for ransom is a felony punishable by death or life imprison- ment. By her failure to answer the tele- phone at her residence Monday night Mrs. Alvey probably saved her husband $50,000. The telephone at the Alvey home rang intermittently all. Monday night, but Mrs. Alvey said she thought her husband was in bed and did not care to be disturbed, so she did not answer it. Meantime an acquaintance of Alvey’s was asked over the telephone if he would cash Alvey’s check for 850,- 000. That was the only intimation of ransom made, so far as could be learnad Police held a theory that had she an- swered the telephone she might have paid the ransom and said nothing about it.

The report on the traction merger agree- ment, prepared in behalf of the Senate District committee by Dr. Milo R. Maltbie, New York public utility expert, was submitted yesterday. The report expresses unqualified opposition to many phases of the agreement. Of principal importance is the fact that it does not recom- mend acceptance of the $50,000,000 valuation and rate base figure, on the ground that it is excessive. It would not be necessary, says the report, in order to bring about a merger under the plan proposed, “to value the prop- erty acquired by the new company. Com- panies are seldom merged or consolidated with valuations approved by State legislatures or Congress. Unification does not change the constitutional status of property.” Dr. Maltbie, however, is not opposed to merger. ‘‘No one denies,” says the report, “that with a unified system service could be improved, the amount of property required adequately to serve the public reduced, the costs of operation curtailed, and vehicular trdffic accelerated and convenienced. The gajn to the public would be equaled and per- haps exceeded ‘by the benefits that would ac- erge to the companies. The question consid- eréd in the report is not whether unification is' desirable but whether the terms under witich it ts to be effected are fair and reason- able.” Dr. Maltbie does not believe they are, and he points out carefully and in detail the defects he considers inherent in the merger agreement. It is pointed out in the report that the Public Utilities Commission has general au- thority to fix valuations and that the merger agreement would abrogate that right for a period of at least ten years. This would be im direct conflict with the modern theory of regulation. Arguing against the inclusion of the $50,000,000 rate base figure, the report says: “If the companies or their stockholders are sure of their legal position, there is no need for concern merely because the two sbys- tems are brought under the control and man- agement of one company. If, however, there is any doubt of the ability of the companies to obtain from the courts a valuation of $50,- 000,000 or more and to maintain it for ten years, the companies will be in a stronger posi- tioh when Congress has approved the con- tract.’ Under no circumstancese can the report be said to close the door to the merger. Indeed, it indicates a course upon which consolidation can be effected. Let the companies agree to mefge, without insisting upon a valuation pro- viston, and trust to equitable regulation by the authorities, as individual companies have in the; past. -» THE AMERICAS LINKED BY AIR. President-elect Hoover’s idea of linking the countries of North and South America by a system of airways, which he expressed at the state dinner given in his honor at Lima, is far from being visionary. He suggested that a system of Pan-American airways could be quitkly devised by representatives of each of the;countries gathering about a council table. Whether or not that suggestion is heeded by the’ governments concerned, Mr. Hoover's pre- diction that ‘‘we would realize such a service within another twelve months” is even now in the’ process of fulfillment. _ Plans are worked out for the Pan-American Airways, Inc., to begin next month operating plajes over the 1,150-mile route, including Havana, San Juan, Haiti and Santo Domingo. Within a few months this company expects to open a 2,000-mile route between Merida, Mex- ico,;and Panama City, for which airports will be provided in Mexico, Panama, Costa Rico, Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala and British Honduras. This same company recently began airplane service between Miami and Nassau, and for some time has operated between Florida and Havana. Several other important airways which will ultimately link the United States with all its southern neighbors have been recently opened. The air-mail service of this country connects with the Mexican airways at Laredo. Daily service between Mexico City and Laredo began on Dctober 1, this year, and daily service is now maintained between Mexico City and the mining center of Matehuala, as well as with Tawdpico. Planes fly triweekly between Vera Crum and Merida. Welivery of mail that has taken from 14 to 18 *days will be accomplished within a few hours when the Guatemalan government estab- lisif#s its proposed service between Guatemala City and Flores. Honduras is maintaining an air‘route between Tela and Tegucigalpa. The Central American countries are alive to the : 2 ; possibilities of aviation. Similar development _ * is going forward in South America, where the great distances to be traveled between centers of population call for air transportation. This _-—s easy and rapid means of communicating with x 4 eS countries of the Western Hemisphere = + ‘ ’ should mean much to the United States. Trade will be stimulated, and demands for American- made planes will be increased. As Mr. Hoover says, “this revolution in communication and transportation” would tend to “destroy the distance between peoples and construct friend- ship between them,” The President-elect’s statement, “I should be proud, indeed, if I might contribute to the furtherance of so great a development,” coupled with his suggestion for a Pan-Ameri- can aviation conference, leads to the belief that he may take steps toward development of in- ternational airways between the two Americas after his inauguration. At least he may be counted upon as a friend of the movement, and this fact will serve as a stimulant to those interested in postal and commercial air lines linking this country with South America. CONGRESS SHOULD INVESTIGATE. Two resolutions asking for investigations by the Senate into the sinking of the Vestris have been introduced. Senator Wagne® of New York, proposes that the Senate select five of its members for the work, and that $50,000 be appropriated from the contingent fund of the Senate to cover the expenses. Senator Jones, of Washington, urges appoint- ment of a joint committee composed of three senators and three representatives to conduct an investigation and make recommendations for safety at sea. Investigations have been made of the Ves- tris disaster by the United States district at- torney of New York dnd by the Steamboat In- spection Service. These investigations did not bring out all the facts. Witnesses in some in- Stances palpably withheld information. ‘The public is not at all satisfied with the situation as it stands. In order to promote safety at sea it is desirable that Congress should have full information concerning the causes of the Vestris ,disaster. senator Wagner suggests that the proposed committee investigate the adequacy of the present legal standards of safety in ship con- struction, the efficiency of the Steamboat In- spection Service, the laws governing loss of life and property at sea, the laws and usages of salvage, and safety devices for sea craft. He would have the committee study the whole subject of safety on the sea, making reports to Congress and finally submitting a detailed report with recommendations for legislation. The Wagner resolution ought to be adopted. necessary —_— — MAKING RADIO CONFUSION. While Radio Commissioner Caldwell on Tuesday was characterizing the radio equali- zation clause last of Congress as a “‘lemon,’’ Senator Dill, daddy of radio legislation, was introducing a further amendment to the law, limiting all broadcast- ing stations to 10,000 watts power except for restricted experimental purposes. If the equalization clause may be fairly characterized passed by the session as a lemon, the power restriction clause must be characterized as a whole bunch of lemons. What is the use of having a commission if it is to have no powers? “Since the commis- sion will not protect the public,” said Senator Dill in explanation of the new amendment, *‘Congreess is the only body that can do so.” If the commission is not protecting the public it is because Congress required it to enforce an ambiguous and unworkable law. What is needed is not a mass of confusing laws tying the hands of the Radio Commis- sion, but a law setting up a permanent radio commission with power to supervise and regu- late radio in the public interest. Congress should not concérn itself with the mechanics of such regulation, for they can be solved only by experts. Further restrictions tacked on to the existing law will only serve to compli- cate the situation. CLEAN OUT CROOKED LAWYERS. Sweeping changes in the statutes and rules of practice governing the ambulance-chasing evil in New York are advocated in the report of a special inquiry submitted to the Supreme ourt of Brooklyn. At the same time comes the announcement from Philadelphia that three members of the bar have. been found guilty of unethical conduct and forbidden to practice law in Pennsylvania. One report notes a growing evil; the other suggests a practical remedy. Ambulance-chasing is one of the most de- spicable practices in which attorneys of this country have ever indulged. These jackleg lawyers obtain information of accidents from police headquarters or from information bu- reaus established for the purpose. They send chasers to the bedside of the injured person. The chasers often hold out false inducements to have their employers retained as counsel. If the injured person is not insured, the case is usually dropped. But where the insurance is large, physicians, professional insurance ad- justers and others are often brought into the agreement, all of them taking large fees from the compensation, usually without taking the case to court. The Brooklyn inquiry found the situation so serious that it declared ‘‘the prosecution of personal injury claims is no longer a phase of the practice of law, but has been reduced to a business,’”® and therein lies “the real root of the trouble.” Recommendations for legislation are made, but the most practical solution is to be found in the Philadelphia case, where the offenders were cast out by the legal profession as the climax of a campaign against 85 attorneys who are reported to have recovered more than $700,000 in accident cases. Bar associations can clean out these crooks, without any legis- lation, if they wish to do so. THE SUBMETER SYSTEM. A test case on the question of electric sub- meters is to be made before the Brooklyn Public Service Commission by the Brooklyn Edison Co. The submetering business is a mushroom industry constantly expanding. Particularly in Manhattan has submetering come to be a thorn in the side of public utility concerns and their customers. The scheme is this: A landlord or a submetering concern, acting under contract with the landlord, in- stalls a master meter upon which is. registered all the current consumed in the entire property, and guarantees a certain minimum monthly consumption in order to obtain wholesale rates. From the master meter wires lead to submeters, one to each tenant. Current is purchased at wholesale rates and tenants are . : billed at a rate sometimes in excess of the legal retail rate. The difference represents pure profit. : Some time ago an attempt was made before the local Public Utilities Commission to ob- tain permission for the iristallation of sub- meters. The attempt failed, but so attractive are the profits possible under submetering that it is not unlikely that another attempt will be made. The Brooklyn test case, therefore, is of interest to Washington. If the Brooklyn Edison Co. wins, submetering as an industry will be dealt a death blow. The test case developed when the Brooklyn Edison Co. discovered that a submetering con- cern had begun operations in an apartment house. Immediately it threatened to take out the meter and discontinue service. The sub- meter concern then obtained a court order re- straining Brooklyn Edison, pending a decision by the public utilities commission, and it is before that body that the case will be fought out. An array of counsel has been retained by both sides. 3 Submetering should never be permitted to gain a foothold in Washington. It is unfair to both the public and the public utility, and profits no one except the middleman, who is not subject to public regulation and is there- fore in a position to charge more for service than a public utility company is allowed to charge. GAS PLANT VALUATION. For the time being the gas company valua- week counsel tion hearings are halted. Last for the company moved that the Public Utili- ties Commission, before which the proceedings were being held, strike out testimony offered by Byers McK, Bachman, chief accountant of the commission, the ground that it based largely on a record of historical cost computed in a previous valuation hearing that is now before the courts. Fleharty countered with a on was Council motion to suspend the present hearing on the ground that it is improper to conduct two valuation proceedings simultaneously. The commission, on Wednes- day, sustained the motion, ceedings to a halt. What course the problematical. It is Peoples bringing the. pro- company will pursue is said that its attorneys could go into court seeking to mandamus the commission to continue the hearings. In that event, however, the question of the propriety of simultaneous proceedings would be raised, and the company might obtain a decision that would leave no open for further attack against its present valuation until court pro- ceedings on the had com- pleted. For the time being the people of Washington have no reason to fear an increase in their rates, but they will watch interest further manipulations that may made for the purpose of boosting rates. way earlier case been Las with he THE PRINCE IMPERIAL.

This correspondence led to an investigation of all the events of the period, and the result hag been reestablish completely the splendid reputation which the Prince Imperial had en- joyed during his brief life and which reached its culminating point on of news of his tragic death, The father had placed Royal Academy at Woolwich in he was 16 years of age, and passed out seventh of 34 in the class, Although, as a foreigner and with another allegiance, he could not take the commission in the British army for which his three years’ work and training in a British military college had equipped him, he re- mained at heart a keen soldier and, after the disaster which befell the English troops at Isandhlwana in January, 1879, he asked per- mission to join up for active service in the African field. This request was met at first by a point blank refusal, but later, on repre- sentations made by his mother, Eugenie, who sacrificed her maternal feelings in order to gratify the earnest wish of her son, he was allowed to go as a spectator and observer. Such a role was, however, distasteful to the Woolwich graduate and man of action, and soon after his arrival in Natal he became asso- ciated with a battery of artillery. He dis- played so much skill in reconnaissance work, in surveying, and in map-making that Lord Chelmsford, commander in chief of the forces in the war, transferred him from his personal staff to the department of the quartermaster general. Every one knows how the Prince, when out with a small surveying party con- sisting of himself and 8 others, was surprised and set upon by a band of about 40 Zulus. Of the nine, tive escaped and four were killed, among the latter the Prince Imperial, who might have escaped also had not his horse, frightened by the discharge of a volley at short range, ran incontinently away. Thus brought to bay, the Prince with intrepid cour- age, engaged single handed with seven of the enemy and finally, overwhelmed by such tre- mendous odds, he fell with sixteen wounds, all in front. The contemporary testimonials bear elo- quent witness to the Prince’s blameless and engaging character, to his noble nature, to his amiable, kindly heart, to his simple manners, to his high spirit, to his skill in manly exer- cises, and to his indomitable courage, and are in themselves sufficient to repel the charges of his postmortem calumniator. | as to the receipt the boy’s him in the 1872, when in 1875 he commission “The party’s life depends on keeping intact,” says a leader.

L: C, GODDARD. Promptness, no of questioning no confusion by useless wit- Lc Blue Laws for Washington. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Il wish to compliment you upon the splendid editov~ial in The Post of De- cember 4, entitled “Wicked Washing- ton.” The national reformers stated that 83,000,000 people were living in cities that prohibited commercialized Sunday movies, leaving 37,000,000 living in jurisdictions addicted to the wick- edness of Sunday movies. The facts of the case are that the large cities in the States that have State laws prohibiting Sunday movies have taken the matter in their own hands through the refer- endum, and are presenting commer- cilalized Sunday movies every Sunday. About 85 per cent of the population of the United States are actually living in territory wheie they have access to Sunday movies, including even the States where the Sunday laws are the strictest. Massachusetts, New York, New Jer- sey and Pennsylvania, which have State laws prohibiting Sunday theaters and movies, allow local option in the large cities and towns, and every one of these States have Sunday movies in the cities. Massachusetts in the recent election voted by a majority of 2 to 1 not only to allow commercialized movies but all kinds of commercialized sports on Sunday. Wherever the issue is placed squarely before the people, the public sentiment is overwhelmingly in favor of liberalized Sunday laws. Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, where the Sunday laws are most drastically enforced in Pennsylvania under the Sunday blue laws of 1794, have nothing to boast over the morality of Washing- ton. The criminal record of Pittsburgh and Philadelphia is well known throughout the whole country. In New Jersey, which has the most drastic Sun- day laws of any State in the Union, not even permitting any kind of recreation for diversion on Sunday, and which al- lows no music except sacred music to be played on Sunday, according to the while questions, opinions. | | | have made their own, no alarm. well as absorb. truth.

Reading is dangerous unless the reader has wit enough to discard as The modern youngster, insisting on the right to do his own thinking, will not be permanently injured by his reading. The children to be shielded—the those whose foolish parents or teachers have scolded them for daring to think and taught them to accept the printed word as the whole of children who need a censor—are statutes, can not find as a general rule a jury that is either willing to indict or convict a violator of the law. The fact that the national reformers are calling upon the “Christian people of the 48 States” to pass a Sunday law for the District of Columbia shows clearly that such a proposed law is re~- ligious in character. The fact that these reformers approve of the motion pictures show on every other day than Sunday is another evidence that they are seeking to protect the day rather than the morals of the people as far as the motion picture shows are con- cerned. Cc. S. LONGACRE. Better Care of Dependent Children. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: The proper care of dependent children fs, of course, of the greatest importance. The welfare of the community depends greatly on it. Proper treatment of the children is the foundation of the wel- fare and good condition of the people of the community. It is to the interest of the community to provide remunera- tion to widows so as to enable them to take care of their children properly and where that is impracticable, to board out the children in good families under proper supervision, or where an institution is necessary, to provide cot- tage plan institutions such as the He- brew Sheltering Guarding Orphan Asylum in Pleasantville. If these prin- ciples are followed it will have the effect of greatly reducing criminality We will. have better people, better citi- zens, and altogether a better com- munity. For the welfare of our community the right treatment, education, and proper surroundings of the children and young people is most important. Most of the prisoners that are now in prisons must have been children or young people say about 20 years ago, and if they had at that time the right training and example they might be law-abiding citizens now instead of prisoners. Again, all the prisoners that are going into prisons or correctional institutions within the next 20 years must now be children or young people among the general community, and if we can give them the right opportuni- ties now we might greatly reduce the number of people who are going into prisons, which certainly is most de- sirable. Let us all work together to so treat the children and young people in our midst that they are likely to be- come good members of society. Early influence has much to do with this. ADOLPH LEWISORN. New York, Dec. 1. “UNLOADED” AGAIN. Sometimes it does seem as if people will never learn, says the Atchison Globe. The old “didn’t know it was loaded” business has taken many a life, but you would suppose by this time every one in the country knew better than to fall a victim to it. But the other day a Ch'cago youth was showing his girl a revolver. She was afraid of it, so he emptied the shells out of it for her. Then, saying, “It’s perfectly safe now,” he pressed the muzzle ageinst her forehead and pulled the trigger. One bullet had remained in the gun. The girl was killed. It seems hard to believe that such ar incredibly stupid performance could take place in America in the year 1928. But it hap- pened. The old army rule still holds good; never point a gun, loaded or un- loaded at any one—never—unless you intend to kill. no | As adults they believe | i the PRESS COMMENT. Frank Hogan.

Mileage and Deaths, New Orleans Times Picayune: In the United States it required, last year, something like 640,000 miles of auto- mobile operation to kill a man. This undoubtedly is out a few thousand miles one way or the other, but the figure is near enough to show two things: First, that vhe actual danger is not quite so great~-as one would imagine; but, on the other hand, it demonstrates, when analyzed, that there is a furious lot of auto mileage perpetrated in the United States of America each twelve months. Assuming that there are in operation 20,000,000 machines, to an average of 8,000 miles @ year—both of the estimates ‘are ultraconservative—we discover a total annual operation of 160,000,000,000 miles. For the period there were ac- tually reported 23312 deaths from etc- cidents in which the automobile played an important part. These positive fig- ures include only 91.3 per cent of the population of the Nation, and if we es- timate the unreported fraction on the © same basis, we reach a total auto kill- ing per annum of 25,533. It is thus calculated by the United States De- partment of Commerce Therefore a good sized cityful or an imposing army die each year largely because of human carelessness and unnecessary haste, v

em DNS SIS MINES PRODUCE TO Muck Secretary of Labor Denies “Competition Is Life of Trade” in Coalfields. TALKS AT SESSION HERE Declargtions that “the mining indus- try is producing too much, and the competition is disastrous” were made by Secretary of Labor Davis in an ad- dress before the American Mining Con- gress yesterday at the Mayflower Hotel. “Unreasonable competition seems to have paralyzed some parts of both the metal and coal industries,” the Secre- tary said. He added that in the matter of coal “it is a falsehood that competi- tion ts the life of trade” and that “in- dustries producing luxuries and semi- luxuries are striving to cheapen or break down the price of coal.” E. C. Alford, special assistant to the Secretary of the Treasury. advocated avoidance of litigation in settlement of tax liability. McKinley W. Kreigh, chief of the tax division of the mining congress, pleaded for “a fair and just Federal tax policy.” Henry B. Fernald, tax authority ot New York; urged elimination of taxa- tion of capital gains and advocated a flat rate applicable to all incomes. J. D. Francis, New York coal company head, went on record as preferring reor- ganization of the bituminous coal in- dustry with distributing and sales agencies in the various producing dis- tricts to government contro] and regu- lation of the industry. Ills of the in- dustry were attributed by Francis to failure of railroads prior to 1923 te fur- nish adequate transportation and to frequent and long strikes. Dr. L. E. Young, Pittsburgh, Was named chairman of a new section of the congress devoted to mechanization of coal mines. At the annual meet- ing of the board of governors of the Southern divisions of the congress, At- lanta, Ga., was selected for the 1929 szssion of the Southern Industrial De- velopment conference, Tug Stolen From U.S. Found on Canada Side Detroit, Mich., Dec. 6 (A.P.).—The tug Geronimo, stolen Wednesday night from the customs border patrol slip at Fort Wayne here, was recovered today in Canadian waters. It was found moored to a tree near the liquor export docks at Lasalle, Ontario. The Geronimo was seized last May in the Straits of Mackinac by customs of- ficers. The captain, John Barr, and three members of the crew were ar- rested and now await action of a grand jury.

Federal soldiers were on the march to- night to enforce order in the Santa Marta district of the Department of Magdalena, where 30,000 striking plan- tation workers have indulged in bloody riots. Minister of War Rengifo announced that elght strikers had been killed and twenty wounded when a mob of them attacked soldiers Wednesday night. What has happened since then is not known, but further bloodshed | !s feared. An earlier dispatch told of a clash between strikers and a patrol of 23 sol- dilers, in which one man was killed and several wounded. Another said that the strikers were attacking employes of the United Fruit Co., an American con- cern which has about 9,000 workers in- volved. Martial Law Declared. The government declared martial law in the area and appointed a civil and military governor, after investiga- tion had led it to believe that the) strike was a “subversive movement,” in which communistic elements were par- ticipating. The situation arose from a dispute between employers and work- ers over the question of compulsory in- surance. The government tried vainly to mediate. As the troops. marched forward toward the area tonight the govern- ment regarded the situation as grave.

Coca Beach, Fla., Dec. 6 (A.P.).—Two of the five men aboard the yacht Aero, which burned last night when 9 miles off Melbourne, Fla., nad been rescued tonight. Edward Satinover, a member ot the crew, was picked up today by a fishing smack and early tonight an un- identified seaman, exhausted by more than 24 hours’ swimming in a life pre- server, pulled himself up on the beach at Melbourne. “There are six others out there in the ocean,” he gasped, and then collapsed before his name could be learned. He was taken to a hospital. Satinover said there were only five men aboard the craft. Satinover, who jumped into the ocean, resigned to death because he could not swim, attributed his being eaved to that one fact. The yacht, en route from Jackson- ville to West Palm Beach, caught fire when the motor backfired and flames enveloped the craft, forcing the crew to take to the ocean.

SPOUSE AIDED MARRIAGE New York, Dec. 6 (N.Y.W.N.S.).—Be- hind the bigamous marriage Wednes- day of Herbert Leigh-Emanuel, church Martha Van Wyen, cloistered 19-year- old daughter of a West Sayville store- keeper; is a story of romance, realism and foolhardiness. Leigh-Emanuel and Mrs. _ Leigh- Emanuel No. 1 made this apparent to- day in an interview at their Sayville home. The organist, just home from jail in Riverhead, released in $5,000 bail on a charge of bigamy, related virtually all the important.detatls of his adventure. Mrs. Leigh-Emanuel, who accompa- nied her’ husband and Mrs, Lelgh- Emanuel No. 2 to New York for the marriage license and witnessed the bigamous: second marriage, had little to say. But she approved and sub- 'stantiated all the organist said. First of all, Leigh-Emanuell. said he and: his first wife have realized for years that they no longer loved each other. ‘They married in Foundry, Wes- ley Hayle, England, January 7, 1915. A year later they came to this country. Three beautiful children have been born to them and another is expected. As they discussed this odd situation, the organist and his first wife sat close to each other. Leigh-Emanuell said that his first wife was at bottom re- sponsible for his second marriage.. She urged it, he said, and Mrs. Leigh- Emanuell No, 1 interpellated a simple “I did.” From that point on the narrative took on a stark realism. Both, in agree- ment that the organist should marry Miss Van Wyen simply concluded that they could do this, keep it quiet while Mrs. Leigh-Emanuell obtained a divorce and then be remarried. “There was nothing that made our marriage imperative except that the three of us thought it was morally wrong for me to love Martha, and for Martha to love me, and- not be mar- ried,” said Leigh-Emanuell. On his left hand he wore a gold sig- net ring, which he later described as | a somewhat amazing gift, amazing be- cause it was-a joint present some time ago from Mrs. Leigh-Emanuell, No. I, and the younger girl. He said it had been agreed between his two wives that after the second wedding, Mrs. Leigh-Emanuell No. 1 was to go to Reno, Nev., for a divorce and he was to go to Detroit, where Mrs. Leigh-Emanuell No. 2 would reenter a school she left a year ago. One of the interesting things the organist disclosed was the manner in which he courted the young girl. Ethel Leigh-Emanuell would arrange for Martha to come to her home, specify- ing that they meet several blocks dis- tant, so neighbors could see the two women enter together and thus block suspicion. Both Leigh-Emanuell and his first wife are confused about their present difficulty. “I realize now that it was done on an emotional impulse,” said Leigh- Emanuell, to which his wife nodded assent. “We thought only of ourselves and nothing about the law, just because we did not dreqm anybody would ever find out.” | 1S ROTHSTENNS FE j Underworld Cashier Is Cited in Indictment as One of Gambler’ S , Slayers. WOMAN'S NAME IS LEW, New York, Dec. 6 (A.P.).-—As police | continued their search today for Hyman “Gilly” Biller, hunted cashier from the many-chambered business office of the underworld, it developed that he is the secretly named figure in the blanket indictment of four men for the murder of Arnold Rothstein. Police revealed yesterday that they were looking for Biller “for question- ing,” but today it was learned from of- ficial sources that he is much more to the case than just one more material witness; that he is, in fact, one of the four men who police believe tried Rothstein and found him wanting in those qualities demanded of a gambler by his peers, tried him and sentenced him and punctuated that sentence with a leaden period. John Doe and Richard Roe, the legal straw men who are the other mystery men of the indictment, began to take on some semblance of actuality today as the result of revelations by “Nigger | the Emerick heirs | from the | In 1815 | trust. | multiplied |A year ' intended only / upon , Including ‘to an ) das question Sas |school teacher in BILLER NOW HUNTED.

SUED ON 90-YEAR TRUST New York, Dec. 6 (A.P.).—Federal | Judge Thacher today dismissed a $32,- 000,000 suit against the estate of John Jacob Astor brought by descendants of Christopher ana Valentine Emerick, brothers of John Nicholas Emerick, who | was Astor’s partner a hundred years | ago. The plaintiffs based their suit on an alleged trust established by John Nich- Olas Emerick in 1815. Its terms pro- vided, the complaint stated, that 90 years after date of its execution the principal and accumulations of Emer- ick’s holdings in his partnership with Astor should be divided among descend- ants of Emerick’s brothers, Christopher and Valentine. Valuable Properties Involved. The suit involved valuable properties now held by the Astor estate, among them the site of the Hotel Astor in Times Square. . Judge Thacher held that the alleged trust was void under the laws of New York and Pennsylvania in force prior | to the death of John Nicholas Emerick. Neither the present defendants nor any | of the hundreds of other claimant heirs of Emerick’s brothers is entitled to sue as such, the court ruled. Judge Thach- er’s opinion did not dispose of the pos- sibility of another suit by heirs and descendants of John Nicholas Emerick, maker of the trust. Efforts of the Emerick heirs to regain from the Astors what they held to be their due have written into court records in many sections of the country a romantic story. Several years ago, when the first of filed his cialm, the Story of the original Astor’s early ad- | ventures in the fur trade was dragged limbo of the past.

Mc- Manus is the only one of the four in- dicted for the shooting of Rothstein who is in custody. Raymond was reported to have told District Attorney Banton the name of a woman who would know the where- abouts of Messrs. Doe and Roe, who are reputedly professional gunmen hired by enemies of Rothstein to “put him away.” Search was at once instituted for this woman, whose identity was not made public, and in reward for his information Raymond’s bail of $100,- 000,.in which he had been held as a material witness, was lowered to $10,- 000, which he furnished. Raymond’s release under low bail left only one material witness still in custody under bail so high he could not furnish it. He is Sidney Stajer, confidential secretary to Rothstein, and his $100,000 bail has withstood habeas corpus proceedings and other Held Here. Construction of the George Washing- ton-Wakefield Memorial Bridge across the Potomac River from near Persim- mon Point, Va., Cedar Point, Md., developed no objec- tion at a public hearing held by the War Department engineers in the board room ~*f the District Building yesterday. Representative Stephen W. Gambrill, .Of Maryland, advocated construction of the bridge, as did Representatives S. O. Bland and R. Walton Moore, of Vir- ginia, Bland declaring that the bridge would give the farmers of the rich tide- water section of Virginia greater access to the National Capital market area. D. J. Ca)’ahan, of the Norfolk & Washington Steamboat Co. offered the only »bjection advanced at the hearing but withdrew that objection later when engineers for the corporation which proposes to build the span pointed out court moves. that the bridge would be 135 feet above high-water level across the channel. Communists See Occoquan Fertile Place for Recruits Need of more and more Communists going to jail in order to spread their doctrines and. gain recruits to the cause was advocated last night at a mass meeting, reception and banquet given in honor of 22 self-styled Com- munists who yesterday were released from jail where they have been serving sentences imposed for staging a dem- onstration November 10 near the White House without the necessary permit. The mass meeting and reception were staged last night at 808 I street northwest, and thence those present adjourned to 1337 Seventh street. where the “fatted calf” was served and jubilation reigned. akers representing those who had been imprisoned declared the jails, par- ticularly the workhouse at Feo was fertile soil for communistic doc- trines and urged all ‘‘workers” to go to jail if necessary to further the cause, “Let us hope,” suid one speaker “that the next demonstration in Wash- ington will be participated in by hun- dreds and that if the police arrest one that they will be forced to arrest ev- ery one who takes part,” The speakers also denounced condi- tions at Occoquan and said that if a lot of Communists were incarcerated there that they might be instrumental in obtaining remedies.

Golf Body Hears Charges Involving Rule Violations. Winner of Title Denies Accusations; To In- vestigate Further. By HENRY LITCHFIELD WEST. HE executive committee of the District of Columbia Golf Asso- Cclation met last night to consider ‘the case of John C. Shorey, who has been credited with winning the Dis- trict of Columbia junior amateur golf championship in a 36-hole medal play competition played last September on the course of the Indian Spring Club. On the face of the cards as submitted Shorey won the title with a total of 153 as against Karl F. Kellerman’s 155. No decision was reached. ' The proceedings weré conducted in Star-chamber fashion behind closed Moors in the offices of C. Chester Cay- wood, president of the association, in he Woodward Building. All the mem- bers of the committee—President Cay- = Secretary William C. Barr, Dr. ruce L. Taylor, Middleton Beaman mand Albert E. Steinem—were present and participated in the questioning. + The first witness to be conducted anto the secret recesses where the com- mittee was assembled was J. Monro Hunter, the professional at the Indian Spring Club. Hunter, in the absence of any of the officials of the association, Was in charge of the tournament and was out on the course when he observed three violations of the rules governing stroke competi- tion, these infractions being later reported in a formal communica- tion to the association.

Six straight defeats were tered to the Apaches before the title last year. The first clash came at the 1922 season after the Apaches had successfully defended the 150-pound title. The Mohawks won, 21 to 6, but the game marked the tirst time the Indians had been scored on for years. In 1923, the the they won the end of year that the beat Mercury, 10 to 9, for the title, the Apaches took a 13-0 beating from # much heavier Mohawk club.

Although the cauliflower common stock of three of its denizens fell to rock bottom when Knute Hansen, Wal- ter P. Chrysler’s protege, was flattened by K. O. Christner, there was no panic in Wall street. -Mr. Chrysler and his associates became interested in Han- sen a year or so ago, when he breezed into town with lots of promise and a prodigious appetite. To bring out the promise it was necessary to underwrite the appetite, and they are reported to have ladled out $75 a week. to keep the big Dane in porterhouse steaks over a stretch of weary months, Now the promise has evaporated and all Han- sen’s backers have to show for their expenditure is a lot of canceled checks and a big Dane with a big appetite, unimpaired by his defeat. Whether they go on paying his board bills is a matter still to be considered, espe- Clally by Mr. Hansen. Others hard hit by. the blows that flattened Knute were the battalions of lawyers who have been drawing down fat fees in the squabble for the con- tract on, his services. As. tor Will Gibson, who recently bought a managerial interest in the alleged fighter, this is the crowning blow of a career of sorrows. First, Benny Leonard, at the height of his drawing power, decided to retire as an unbeaten world champion. As soon as he came out of the faint that followed Benny’s announcement, Mr. Gibson ac- quired Gene Tunney and nominally, at least, managed him into the heavy- weight championship of the _ world. Again it seemed that Will was sitting pretty, when on a bright July morn- ing he awoke to find that another world champion had walked out on him into retirement. The conductor of this department was present when Mr. Tun- ney announced dissolution of the part- nership and will never forget the ago- nized look that took up residence in Mr. Gibson’s big eyes. Mr. Gibson had only recently recov- ered from the shock >ecasipned by the blow-up of Louis (Kid) Kaplan, for whom, as featherweight champion, Mr. Gibson had paid a goodly sum For a time it appeared that Mr. Gibson was utterly crushed and he did indeed an- nounce that he was through with the boxing racket. Mr. Gibson had been in retirement but a few days when something whis- pered a fateful name into his ample ears., The name, of course, was, Han- sen. Long Search Promised to Find Head to Fit Tunney’s Crown. Hansen’s cGefeat’ by Christner and Risko’s by the impossiole Maloney are two more indications that it will be a long, long time before the trustees of U. players, teamed to beat the Apaches in 1924, with a 40-yard pass and a 6-0 Mohawk victory. The last five minutes of the 1925 game swung the Mohawks to vic- tory again by a 6-0 score, the Apaches halting all scoring efforts of the Hawks up to that period of the contest. Although the Apaches twice, beat the Mercury Club,. then champions, the Little Indians did not win the 1926 title. They met the Mohawks twice and were defeated, 16-0 and 8-0. Last year, the Apaches won the game and the championship by a 10-0 score. A pass from Ty Rauber to Joe Sweeney and the latter’s kick for the added point accounted for seven, points with Rauber adding three with a dropkick In coming up to the big game unde- feated, both of the rivals have made brilliant records. The Apaches have scored 256 points to 6 for opponents, while the Mohawks have registered 182 points to 26 for opponents. Games against the Northerns, St. Mary's Celtics and Fort Leonard Wood offer basis for comparative scores. The Apaches defeated the Northerns, 6-0, while in two meetings the Mohawks won, 7-0 and 6-0. Against the Celtics, the Apaches won, 29-0, while the Mohawks scored, 14-7. Fort Leonard Wood, the only team to score on the Apaches, lost to the Little Indians, 19-6, while the Mohawks beat the Soldiers, 28-6. The season’s records of the rivals follow: APACHES., rt.

No change in the present manner ‘of dealing with sports at George Wash- ington is,necessary, Dr. Hunter asserts, and the university itself does not need the assistance of the alumni body to promote and produce strong football teams other than in the sense of co- operation with and support of its actions.

For one thing, it 1s practically im- possible to cut a corporation's throat or take a corporation for a ride. This is something to be considered very seriously in the operation of a prize fight nowadays, particularly if the prize fighter is a heavyweight with a theoretical chance at the heavyweight championship of the world. valued at several millions. Experience has frequently shown that it is quite dangerous to life and limb to be the sole proprietor of a well-paying pugilistic property. The unscrupulous element is so aggressive that the moment an individual pro- prietor begins to reap large returns on a pugilist, he is likely to receive a visi from a mysterious stranger, usu- ally of greasy countenance, who says, “Meet your new partner.” “What do you mean, new partner?” the proprietor inquires. “I have not got no partner.” “Think it over until tomorrow,” the visitor suggests. “] am sure you will decide that you have a partner.” The proprietor frequently decides that he has a partner, after all, and there is a division of the interests. one Nl: Si ates the Ot that tole Ns hrew Gi have delegated managers and Lo share- ls Ignoring a New Partner Found to Be Unhealthy. I am informed that the new partner generally assumes the majority inter- est in order to discourage greed in the old owner of the fighter and thus pro- mote the tendency of the game toward nobility and uplift. And quite often the new majority owner decides that he can not agree on matters of man- agement with the old manager and, therefore buys him out at price agreed on by the majority It is considered quite injurious to health to ignore a new partner. Mr. Mel Cook, who developed a property known as Cannonball Eddie Martin and obtained the bantamweight champlion- ship of the world, insisted that he could not remember ever having taken a partner into the business, notwith- standing several insistent reminders. And one evening while Mr. Cook was sitting among the sport loving throng at a ringside in Brooklyn watching un exhibition of' manly sport, it was dis- covered that his throat had been wounded as though by a knife blade. I believe it was later decided that Mr. Coo) had chafed his throat on his own collar, necessitating a long sojourn in a hospital, and a black® eye on - the escutcheon of sport was scotched in CONTINUED ON PAGE 14, COLUMN 1, the | starred | years years old. i cented | football coach, Muhlenberg | football > JOHNSON OFFERS FIVE PLAYERS TO RED SOX INRUMORED TRADING Would Give Boston Lisenbee, Gaston, Reeves, Cronin and Gillis for Former Washington Infielder, Is Report; Minors Delay Action on Draft.

Ralph Duplin, quarter back, and Jerry Carroll, captain and guard of the Hova Eleven, are both suffering with broken legs and they most likely would have been considered had they been in good physical condition. — J.C.

THE WASHINGTON POST: ; FRIDAY, DECEMBER oT ee meee . a Se ee ee ee i (fe 1928. STRIBLING-SEKYRA BOUT NOW SOUGHT FOR GARDEN Georgia gia Boxer Anxious for Match Sharkey Seen as Foe for Christner, Who Flattened Hansen. McArdle Wants Glick and McLarnin to Meet in Jan. By JACK FARRELL, Special to The Washington Post. EW YORK, Dec. matchmaker for Madison Square Garden, is trying to sign William Lawrence Stribling and Joe Sekyra to fight ten rounds on December 28, This date was originally set aside for a jam between Knute Hansen and George Godfrey, two of the East’s better known leaning posts, but untoward happen- ings in Cleveland the other night put the kibosh on the setto. Stribling is said to be willing to fight, but Sekyra seems to be troubled with an inflated idea of his drawing power, which has prompted him to ask for a bigger drag from the net pro- ceeds than McArdle is ready to sub- scribe. Stribling has been waiting so long to fight somebody around here that he doesn’t care whether he is matched with Joe Sekyra or Joe Doakes, so long as he is listed among the com- ing attractions. Tex Rickard’s getter-together of pu- gilists also would like to team Jack Sharkey with & O. Christner, the ob- scure rubber Worker who dented Han- sen’s fender the other night. Shar- key is ready to go, but Kayo’s man- ager, who isn’t used to receiving tempt- ing offers, has asked for time out to consult his friends and relatives and =e to brush up on his arithme- c. Another luscious fistic plum Mc- Ardle would like to shake down from the tree of prospective attractions is a bout between Jimmy MclLar- nin, the dynamited Dublin dyna- miter, and Joe Glick, of Williams- Durg. The fact that Shamus was flattened by Ray Miller last week makes no never mind with Mc- Ardle, He still figures Jin Jimmy as a power- ful magnet and allows that he was merely the victim of an accident. This match he would stage some time in January, if the boys fill in the dotted line. Pop Foster, the big philanthro- pist who does Jimmy’s managing, is due in town with McLarnin tomorrow to talk the matter over. CORPORATION THEORY EXPLAINED BY PEGLER CONTINUED FROM PAGE 13. the bud. But the incident supported the superstition that misfortune al- ways dogs the footsteps of those who tefuse to take in partners. Joe Dundee’s Manager Striking Example of the New Idea. The manager of Mr. Joe Dundee, the Welterweight champion, also came un- der the hoodoo that plagues those who are guilty of the sin of greed and re- fuse to take in partners. This sportsman, named Mr. Waxman, received a call from a sportsman who wished to be his partner now that Dun- dee had won the championship. “Partner!” exclaimed Mr. Waxman, selfishly. “I don’t need any partners.” It was not ten minutes later that Mr. Waxman was discovered in his room, wounded like Mr. Cook. The case has always been a bit of a mystery, as Mr. Waxman was in his pajamas and could not have chafed his neck on his collar, So, as a rule, it is more salubrious to incorporate @® progressive pugilistic property. It is also considered advan- tageous to take in such a stockholder as Mr. James J. Johnston, who has friends in the admmistration. Just what steps the Knute Hansen corporation will take to preserve his chin will have to be decided. Plastic surgery promises much. The best prize fighters have receding chins and Mr. Hansen’s is quite protuberant. I have heard that doctors in the face- -lifting line sometimes inject beeswax or tallow to enhance the chins of moving picture actors whose profiles run in a straight, receding line from the mouth to the Adam's apple. The same doctor might operate on Knute or Nude, using con- crete instead of wax. GRAYS WIN OVER SOLDIERS. A whirlwind second-half offensive carried the Washington Grays to vic- tory last night over the Army Head- quarters Basketball Team at the Wash- ington Barracks after the soldiers were leading, 19-18, at the end of the first half. McDonald and T. Peck led the Grays’ attack. The Grays will engage the Sioux Monday night at Central High Schoo] at 8 o’clock. 384 0 0 0 0 2 34 1 3 0 1 .16 Totals e@eeee 9 “ena eees feree—Schott. J.

ACKED by the prospect of its strongest eleven in many seasons, Catholic University is mapping out a schedule of ten football games for 1929, the most difficult card in point of numbers that a Cardinal grid- iron machine ever has attempted. So far all but three of the dates sought have been filled, the remaining open dates being assigned the Cardi- nals’ home field. Efforts are being made to bring not only three strong teams of Catholic’s class here, but three teams that will be new to Dis- trict fans, Five home games will be arranged, the two already contracted for being with Mount St. Mary’s, of Emmittsburg, Md., and George Wash- ington, the latter dated as the annual Catholic home-coming day feature on Thanksgiving. The Cardinals’ out-of-town op- ponents next fall will be Boston College, at Boston; Villanova, at Villanova, Pa.; Willlam and Mary, at Willlamsburg, Va.; Rutgers, at New Brunswick, N. J., and Loyola, at Baltimore. . Only one member of the 1928 eleven will be missing when Coach McAuliffe assembles his squad in 1929. He is Capt. Jim Schmidt, shifty running half back and star forward-pass receiver. Off- setting this, however, will be the Influx of fine talent among this year’s fresh- men, who hung up. the best record a Catholic yearling eleven has compiled in recent history. The 1928 cubs were undefeated and not scored on in six games this year. They are crowding in line to answer the call for boxfng candidates out at Catholic University. Already more than 30 would-be mitt artists have reported to Coach Teddy Mitchell, and the end is not yet. New names are going down on the list day by day, caus- ing “Mitch” to feel pretty good over the Cardinals’ prospects in collegiate ring circles this winter. “The enthusiasm the boys are showlng this year certainly indicates that boxing here should reach an unprecedented level of success,” remarked the Catho- lic instructor yesterday. “I believe that we are going to get somewhere now With this increasing spirit. We didn’t do so awfully bad last year and the year before when the interest wasn’t nearly 80 great.” The presence of Gene Murphy, nifty welterweight, with the Cardinal boxers again speaks for improvement in this year’s team over the last, as Murphy was a bulwark of the 1926-27 squad and 1s thought not to have lost any of his abil- ity despite a lay-off last season due to an injury. He has just completed a brilliant football season and feels in great shape for action in the squared circle, The early stages of the Cardinals’ training will be consumed tin calis- thenics, boxing and rope skipping, as Mitchel] wants to per- fect the physical condition of his ‘proteges before giving them any inside boxing. shadow Light work and road sessions will come a few days before the Christmas holidays, follow'ng which intensive box- ing will be in order with the approach of the Cardinals’ first team match. Washington and Lee will be among the five or 8!x opponents the Brookland authorities are trying to schedule. New York University, which has been listed by Georgetown, Is a likely opponent. Prominent in the squad now training are Capt. Mickey McGuire, feather- welght; Murphy, Jack Malevitch, light heavy, who will probably box in the heavyweight division this year; Fullen, a welter, who advanced to the semi- finals of the Olympic team try-outs last year, and Ricard!.

Reports from Toronto indicate that everybody connected with baseball who could think up a pretext to make the trip is sitting in on the minor league baseball conclave. So far the only busi- ness transacted has been a minor trade or two that could have been arftanged by telephone or mail. Can it be that the. Canadian metropolis offers an at- traction that no city in the United States legally possesses? Surely no routine minor league meeting is of sufficient importance in itself to com- mand the presence of big delegations such as that representing the Yanks, whose interests are being guarded at Toronto by Col. Ruppert, Manager Huggins, Ed Barrow, Gene McCann, Bill Kritchell, Eddie Kerr and Johnny Nee. Why Mark Roth, Charley McManus, George Perry, Charley O'Leary and Ar- thur Fletcher, of the Ruppert cabinet, are not there also is a mystery. But probably they are (New York World News Service.)

The Fort Washington Quintet would like to arrange games with unlimited teams in the city or vicinity from Christmas on until the end of the season. Teams interested, posadh Athletic Officer J. H, Homewood, Fo ington, Md, Coach Boyd Drills Squad Ot 30 Candidates at Tech Held at Langley; Scrimmages Against Local College Teams to Afford Experience for His Team; Practices Prospects Bright. By GARRETT WATERS. ASKETBALL at Tech High should B thrive this season. The 30 players now on the squad went about their work as if they meant business yesterday at the Langley Junior High School Gymnasium. Coach Boyd has been forced to work with his men at the Langley Gymnasium because the Tech floor is incompleted as yet. Coach Boyd is enthusiastic over pros- pects this year. He has two veterans from last year, Brown and Goldblatt, but his squad includes several good basketball players in the making whom he hopes will develop in time for the high school series. It is Boyd’s aim to start Tech off in the right manner this season, especially in the high school series, and it is dur- ing this month that he plans extensive practice sessions in finding out just what material he has at hand. No outside games have been arranged on the. Manual Trainer’s schedule as yet, and there is a possibility that none will be listed because of Coach Boyd’s plans in the way of practice, He feels that the team will benefit as much if It scrimmaged the several local college fives, and it is this that he plans to do. A scrimmage is scheduled with Gallau- det for next Wednesday at Kendall Green, while scrimmages with George Washington and American University are on the program later, The Tech Five, with Rooney, Forney, Berger and others, started with a rush last year and in the several early high school games looked to be the strongest team in the series and the one which would ultimately win the champion- ship. How it simmered down and lost out in the end against Central is now history. It is this that Coach Boyd wants to guard against this season. He wants to mold a well-balanced club and one which will be consistent throughout the entire season, In addition to Brown and Goldblatt, who will probably hold down guard and forward positions, respectively, when the time for actually stationing men at the “ve positicns comes, the squad of 30 players will include King, Pfau, Sorrell. Lasise, Ensor, MacCartee, Churchman, Wilson, C. Cassassa, B. Cassassa, Tal- burtt, Heflin, Kalden*-ch, Connor, Vass, Reichardt, Johns, Farhood, Aus- tin, English, Biscoe, Johnson, Shore, Monor, J. Wilton, Hawkins and F. Murray. Fair Athletes HE Recreation Basketball League held its first general meeting of the season last night in room 2, District Building, and settled many matters of importance that will have a bearing on the forthcoming. season, which it was decided would start the second week in January. Heading the features of the meeting last night was the election of officers, all of whom were elected unanimously. They are: President, Dorothy E, Greene, vice president, Maude N. Parker; secre- tary, Louise Sullivan; treasurer, Mar- paret Craig: chairman of officials, Margaret Haugen; rating committee, Camille O'Hara and Rozelle Bolton. A registration fee of $12 was agreed on with half of the total due by De- cember 15 and the remainder by Jan- uary 1. All entrance fees should be mailed to Margaret Craig, treasurer of the league, at room 2, District Build- ing. Among the more important regula- tions adopted were that uniforms are preferred, but not necessary, the on ly stipulation being that clothing must be suitable for playing and that mem- bers of the various teams should wear an emblem signifying their team. Tt was also emphasized that no protests would be considered which involved an opinton, Any team having a complaint to make re- garding a game must base the same on the interpretation of a rule. All protests must reach head- quarters within 24 hours after the competition of the game in ques- tion, The sentiment of the meeting was expressed by the declaration that “the Recreation League wishes to promote wholesome and. clean athletics among the girls of the city and give them a4 general good time. While we are play- ing in competition we are not merely aiming to pick a champion and do not wish to sacrifice health and high ideals for the purpose of winning. Let’s have them all.” Nine teams were represented last night and indications were that at least six more would apply for mem- bership before the opening day. Teams were urged by the officials to have their physical examination certificates in by December 15. The clubs represented at the meeting follow: Basketeers, Saint Paul’s Acad- emy, Strayer’s Business College, Gypsy A. C., Aloysius Club, Roxie A. C., Co- lumbia A. C., Eagles and Eaglets. CENTER SEXTET TRIUMPHS, The well-drilled Jewish Community Center girls’ basketball team opened its season last night with a decisive victory over the Vandal A. C. Sextet, 56 to 12, at the Center gymnasium. The game was one of the group scheduled by the Center team before the opening of the Recreation League. The sensational tossing of Eva Fish- man, who scored 20 field goals, fea- tured the contest, although the de- fensive play of the Center Sextet held the Vandals to 6 goals from the floor. At the end of the half, the Center tom led, 36 to 8. & FG LS \Vangel A.C. Whitney, If. Inoudabush, Critchfield, c piecnot 2? ao °9 ss I. Cc. C. "ishman, If.

Bussink’s cold, which was contracted while on the Gonzaga Eleven’s recent trip to Staunton, Va. has proved so severe that his physician has advised him to keep out of the game tomorrow, This comes as quite a blow to Gone zaga supporters on the eve of their an- nual feud game with Devitt and has them as well as Coach Ken Simondinger worried a little on just how the team Will be affected. Coach Simondinger, in practice yesterday afternoon, worke« ed “Pink” Pinckney in Bussink’s place, ” With the bad news of Bussink’s loss, came the good news of the rounding into shape of Dunnington and Healy, the other sick warriors, who were out with colds earlier in the week. These players, both linesmen, will relieve all worries of Simondinger as to his for- ward wall, providing their recent illness does not weaken them. The line is One of the strongest a Gonzaga team has known in several seasons. Reports from the Devitt camp have that eleven, too, with an injured player © in their midst. Bob Galligher, center, turned up with a knee injury after practice yesterday. It is thought he wil be out of the game tomorrow. All efforts are going to be made to get Galligher in shape, but in the event he does not round into form, Gil Cume- mings will fill the position. Cummings started the season at center, but was withdrawn because of his light weight in a shift which saw the bringing of Galligher from an end position to. cene ter Cummings, even though light, fe not so light that It will hurt the Devitt line materially.

POST: Seating at Baltimore Is Clearer Crystal Oscillator In. stalled on Transmitter of WBAL—Louder | Signal and Better Volume and ‘Modulation Predicted. In order to increase the effectiveness of its transmission and thereby pro- vide a much more satisfactory recep- tion to radio audiences all over the country, ‘station WBAL, at Baltimore, has recently installed a crystal oscil- lator on its 5 K. W. transmitter. This will be of particular interest here be- cause of. the ‘increased volume and clearness with which WBAL comes into Washington under the new nationally cleared channel assigned to it by the radio conimission. Aceording to Frederick R. Huber, di- rector, the installation of this new equipment at the Baltimore station will result in a louder signal and much better volume and modulation. ° WBAL's: engineering staff has been working tirelessly, day and night, to effect this technical change s0 as to enable Baltimore's high power station to occupy its new channel with all im- provements functioning.

I was 22. to one three years older. Life until my marriage was an exceptionally happy one. After one year I found out, through a missent letter, that my husband, whom I had trusted with my whole heart, was the father of another girl's child, born while we were engaged. At first he emphatically denied it, but finally confessed and pleaded forgiveness. As this happened tn an entirely different part of the country, no one here knows anything about it. The light seemed to go out of my life. I groped alone in the darkness. Even this I would have been able to forgive and sometime probably forget, but as the months passed I found him out to be what he really always was, @n untruthful, cheap flirt. Years of indifference and cold treatment fol- lowed.. I was never taken into confi- dence, never shown any attention or effection. And I bore it all in silence. Four children came in close succession. Still he kept up the silent disinterest- edness.

Imbued with the idea that partial scores are: not worth going after, and that in Contract game must be bid for if a game-score is to be achieved, many a Contract player—nee Auction Player —refuses to start the bidding on any- thing short of a whale of a hand. -This conservatism in bidding of course fur- Nishes the purtner with valuable infor- mation when a bid is made, but it causes Many hands to be passed out when playing Contract, which would be bid if playing Auction.

Ee N scarfs seemed to flutter a farewell over the rim of the smart world, other scarfs waved bright colors herald- ing the arrival of as vast an army as had seemingly gone their victorious way. It being seemingly impossible to stem the tide of ideas involving color and design, it only became necessary to supply new and diverting ways of wearing all these lovely things. All sorts of trickeries have been resorted to—Iike fitting one corner of a scarf into the corner of a contrasting one, so that their ends are unrelated in de- sign. Other scarfs in triangular and other forms include those with mitred or rounded ends. There seemed no good reason why a_ scarf should not be worn after the fichu manner, dropped to or below the level of the shoulder, and this arrangement has proved. its worth for evening. One sees of course in the anticipated vogue of the suit for Southern wear. endless opportun- ities for clever arrangements of the searf, many of which are tied stock fashion tightly about the throat. A feeling for ribbed silks and for a renewr! of the printed vogue is man- ifested. The new cravat silks are naturally effective for scarfs, while bayadere effects and plaids combined with flowers are among the promise of a gay and interesting resort season. Yellows, reds, greens, purples and blues make a brilliant banner to follow Séuth. Rough surfaced silks show signs of returning to gay beaches and there seems no reason to bar scarfs of any effective fabric since there are so many ways of wearing them, The large chiffon handkerchief worn knotted at the wriet is now shown in figured chiffons for evening. commen The colffure hat, so called because fashioned of feathers or fur made to appear as though one were barsheaded, is a fad, Saini 2) ‘The tuck-in blouse is another ro- vival and is usually seén in company with @ tailleur.

I had a solution in mind and was quite tickled when he sugwested the same fhing. “We agreed that I should pay for all his needs, clothes, books, school sup- plies, lunches and so on, but whatever be paid out on entertainment for the girls, he should earn himself. “After a week's search. he landed a part time job in a store and. though he heg held a good many varied posi- tions since, he has always paid for his own entertaining Of cource, I told him as long as it was his money, he could be as extravagant as he liked, but I chuckled to myself as 1 watched him begin to economize, wondering whether he could afford to go to this or that, and planning one dance in- stead of another, because it cost less, and taking Sally instead of Sue because she never stuck him for ‘heavy feeds,’ He discovered what it meant to earn his good times ard if he went a little’ less frequently than before, he got more of a kick out. of going.

This is @ cei more pertinent question than many of us are prone to believe, for a fragrance that is really suited to our personality has a true psychological effect. Spraying a few drops of it on is like putting on a hat that you know is especially becoming. “It contributes appreciably to*your sense of well-being. The choice of your perfume should never be a casual matter. First, decide what type you- like most, what seems to suit your personality. Even then, it is best to purchase a small bottle at first and get the opinions of your friends upon it. For, even if you have. the most discirminating taste in this respect, you may err in choosing per- fume. The majority of American girls and women today prefer light. fresh fra- gtances—a single sweet flower odor, a blend of two'or three flowers, or a fugl- tive bouquet. But there -are others who are devoted to fragran-es of exotic type, and to whom such fragrances are suited. Then, there are many chic women who ch still. another type, one that seems me a gort of “twen- tieth-century blend” of perfume. This is usually is not light, rather a clinging odor than a clear one, with a distinct over- tone of sophistication.

Watson and several score other promi- nent men and women and a crowd of small boys who professed eager desire to emulate them. The new tower is at Seventh street and North Carolina avenue southeast. Praising the class, which is the first to be turned out by Battalion Chief Thomas O’Connor and Capt. L. S&S. Wollard, in charge of the drill school, Dougherty told the men that he had scaled walls with scaling ladders him- self, but that was several years ago, when he was younger and more agile and before he came to Washington from New England. The “rookies” climbed to the roof of the in tower The drill tower is a five-story, and concrete structure, and the fire- men were equipped with special belts which aided them in sliding down ropes from the roof, carrying a com- panion, and doing similar things they might be called on to do in time of emergency fighting’ fires, The drill was brought to an end with an exhibition of the use of the life net, men jumping from the second and third floor windows into the net. Some were so proud of the skill of the class that they wanted to jump from a fifth- floor window for the benefit of news photographers, but Chief O'Connor halted them at the third floor.

Dress Uniforms Permitted By War Secretary’s Edict Dislike of Officers to Appear at Official Functions in Their ‘“‘Working Clothes” Leads to Resumption of Colorful Attire Given Up in 1915. Because many officers dislike at- tending official functions in “working clothes,” return of the Army to its blue uniforms, given up in 1915, was per- mitted yesterday. Secretary of War Davis directed that soldiers be author- ized, but not required, to wear them. Drills and troop formations are ex- ceptions from the order, so that on such occasions service olive drab and khaki. still will be the regulation col- ors. Legislation for equipment of the Army in blue uniforms is pending. Yesterday's authorization means of- ficers or enlisted men having their old blue uniforms could put them on last night for wear under certain condi- tions, or buy them when available, War Department officials explaining that store stocks are practically exhausted. The office of the quartermaster gen- eral is preparing plans for their man- ufacture. however, on request of pro- spective wearers. Secre Davis’ announcement makes clear that procurement and wearing of blue uniforms is entirely optional on the part of the individual soldier and at his own expense, and commanding officers are expressly forbidden to exer- cise pressure of any sort or seek to in- duce individuals to procure them. The blue uniforms authorized for wear consist .of five classifications. dress, full dress, social dress, mess jacket and cape. the four last being applicable -to officers only... Full dress. consists of a dark blue, gold braided cap, piped with the color of the branch, a plastron-fronted, skirted tunic, with two rows of brass buttons, shoulder knots of gold braid and stiff collar. Colonels and lower ranks are indicated by from five to one Austrian knots of thin gold braid on the sleeve near the cuff. Branch insignia in brass is under the knot. Cuffs of general officers are decorated with the gold stars in numbers indi- cating their grade and gold wreaths. Trousers of lighter blue, with stripes in branch colors, are prescribed with their uniform, except that those for general and staff officers are of the same dark blue as the tunic, or black. Gold sashes and saber belts are also. pre- scribed for the general officers, who wear gold tasseled epaulettes instead of shoulder knots. Trouser regulations are the same for the dress uniform, in which a short, dark blue, black braided blouse with- out brass buttons is worn by officers. Social dress for officers is similar to the black civilian evening dress. Gold shoulder knots or epaulettes, brass but- tons, the Austrian knot and —_ branch insignia are worn with it. e mess jacket is similar to the social dress, save the coat is tailless, and the labels may be of the branch coloring. Dress for enlisted men consists of the dark blue regulation cap, decorated with branch insignia in brass and piped with branch coloring. The blouse has a s‘iff collar. is. fastened with .a single row of brass buttons and edged with branch coloring. ° eae fer ‘Grand Jury to Act on Accusa- | i | | } } ; ; be a oe nr a A dS : ay ere ee Nee jae ae ; re ey ‘ } c*?¢ $ ae e by m~~~e 1 4 . . 4 , eka) ae on a) Bn 6: smeinn sl han - ew ¢! ee + » > - UTILITY COMMISSION ORDERS POWER RATE LOWERED JANUARY 1 Customers’ Savings to Aver- age 11.86 Per Cent Under New Schedule. BUYERS WILL PROFIT $625,061 NEXT YEAR Board Approves $2 Charge for Reconnecting Meters of Lax Bill Payers. The Public Utilities Commission yes- terday formally ordered the expected reductions in electric current rates for next year. The new rates go into effect for c.rre~* used after January 1. The new rate for household lighting consumption was fixed at 5.2 cents a kilowatt hour. The rate this year was 5.9 cents The secondary household lighting rate was eliminated. This was 4.5 cents an hour for lighting current ce -umed in excess of 120 hours. The average monthly household lighting consumption is 44 hours and the sec- ondary rate applied only to a few of the 109,000 household consumers. ‘ The reduction in rate will mean a saving of 11.86 per cent for. consumers. On the basis of the average consump- tion and rate this year the new rate will mean an average saving of approxi- mately 31 cents a month for household consumers. Schedule K Schedule K, applying to current used for residential heating and cooking also was reduced from 5.9 cents to 5.2 cents with a secondary rate of 3 cents for cur- rent in excess of 10 kilowatt hours. Two commercial schedules, C and D, were cut to 5.1.cents an hour, but the others were cut. varying fractions to bring them to.the same primary base as the household rate, although large con- sumers were given th~ benefit of lowe Reduced. rates on the basis of a graduated scale | of consumption. Big Sum to Be Saved. The new: rates, expressed in dollars, mean the return to current customers of the Potomac Electric Power Co. of $625,061.99 next year. This represents half of the excess profits the company earned last year, above a return of 7), per cent on its valuation. Under the agreement between the company and commission the excess earnings are divided with consumers There has been a rate reduction each year since the agreement went into effect. A new feature of the new rate sched- ule Is a charge of $2 for: “reconnection” of service for customers whose meters have been cut off because of nonpay- ment of bills. This proposal by company was mission. Pol ice Testimony Frees 2 in Court ee ee ee Patrolman Denies That Ar- | rested Man Laid Hands on Colleague. Although summoned as a prosecu- tion witness, Policeman M. I. Bridges, of the Seventh Precinct, yesterday gave testimony in Police Court before Judge Ralph Given which led to dismissal of disorder charges against John J. Killeen and Charles B. Krauss and an additional charge of assaulting Police- man W. E. Lawson, of the Seventh Precinct, against Krauss. The trial was continued Wednesday to permit Bridges to testify after Law- son declared both Krauss and Killeen used abusive language toward him when they were arrested in what he termsd a “gambling joint” at 1413 Wis- consin. avenue northwest, a few days ago. Lawson said he was assigned to picket the “joint” and that after he arrested two men on charges of accept- ing bets on the street in front of the place’ Killeen protested against their arrests. He arrested Killeen, Lawson said, and instructed Bridges to arrest Krauss, charging that the latter had grabbed him in protesting against Kil- leen’s arrest: Bridges testified that he walked into the cigar store on Wisconsin avenue while Lawson was arguing with Killeen. He declared neither Killeen nor Krauss used abusivce language and said he did not see Krauss lay hands on the other policeman. At the conclusion of testi- mony, Judge Given asked Walter M. Shea, the prosecutor, if there was any argument of the case. When Shea re- sponded, “I’m not saying a word, Your Honor,” Judge Given smiled and dis- missed the charges. Harry Whelan ap- peared as counse] for the defendants. Woman Runs After Snatcher of Purse Chases Thief Into Alley, but Slips, So Man Gets Away. The chase of a pocketbook thief early yesterday evening came to an abrupt end when the victim, Miss Estelle Brete- ton, of 1629 Q street northwest, fell as she sprinted through an alley near Six- teenth and Q streets. The thief, who was a young negro, cut the purse, containing $70, from her arm as she was returning to her home. To escape he ran down a nearby alley, with Miss Breteton close upon his heels. That the robbery was planned in ad- vance was evidenced by a bicycle that the thief had planted in the alley to make his getaway. He was prevented from using the bicycle, however, when Miss Breteton took after him. The bicycle was confiscated by police of the Third Precinct. The police hope to trace the thief through the bicycle. The man is believed to be the same who re- cently has slipped pocketbooks from a Number of. women’s arms.

At the same time Representative James O'Connor, of Louisiana, declared, “From my understanding of the va- grancy act proposed for Washington, I shall give it my support when it comes up tor consideration in the House.” New Orleans was for many years troubled with the same situation Wash- ington now faces with respect to va- grants and other undesirables, Mayor O’Keefe declared.

Practice of the District Traffic De- partment of permitting persons to ob- tain automobile license tags without first proving ownership of vehicles was sarcastically denounced as “a fine pro- cedure” by Judge Ralph Given yester- day in Police Court. : The judge made the remarks during the jury trial of LeRoy Jones, colored, accused of taking property without right. Detective Henry M. Jett, of headquarters, testified Jones had ob- tained license tags for a car, the engine numbers of which had been filed off and declared tags could be secured upon exhibition of a registration card. . Judge Given remarked such a prac- tice made it difficult for police im trac- ing ownership of stolen cars. A jury eonvicted Jones and Judge Given sen- tenced him to pay a $50 a fine or serve 30 days in jail. Jones was accused of having removed the automobile from > pereee without first paying a repair bill, | bootlegging and other condi- | to provide a new organ for the church.

Through its counsel, J. Harry Cov- ‘ington and Spencer Gordon, the bank complained that an enormous loss of ‘revenue and increasing indebtedness have resulted from extensive litigation ‘involving the property. The litigation |began last spring, when the Liberty |Trust Co. sought foreclosure proceed- ‘ings as holder of a second trust deed ‘on the property, which resulted in al- |most a score of mechanics lien holders 'filinz their claims. | When a receiver took over the build- ling, the bank declared, rentals totaled | about $8,000 a month and since that | time new leases have been executed, | but the present rental of the building ‘amounts to only 89.318 a month. The |receiver is faced with the virtual im- 'possibility of obtaining tenants, the bank complained, because the building has not been fully completed and many of the floors are without partitions. Expenses of operating the building, |}according to the petition, amount to | $2,500 a month, taxes of 861,624.32 are idue, ond interest of $288,313.52 has been due since November 1 in addition to the $3,300,000 mortgage.

Sus- picious, Browning said, Mrs. Donohue declared she believed him to be a reve- nue agent and asked to see his feet Browning declared he raised his trousers to permit a good view of his pedal ex- tremities, but a pair of red socks he was wearing caught the woman's eye. Browning said the woman declared a man who wore red socks “can't be a revenue agent,” whereupon drinks were served, according to the detective, and the woman was paid with marked money. She was arrested a few hours later on a warrant. The woman was convicted of similar charges last June.

WN LEFT TURN ULE Six Months’ Test of Traffic Bureau’s Regulation Held | to Prove Failure. _ w INTRICATE DIRECTIONS ARE CALLED CONFUSING Duplex System Varies With Presence or Absence of Officer at Intersection. By WILLIAM ULLMAN. Washington motorists desire, demand and desperately need a new deal on the left turn provision of the traffie regulations. The present regulation, completely mystifying to visitors and still confug- ing to a considerable proportion of local drivers, has had a six-month test. That period is held by a majority of drivers to have proved beyond a doubt that the regulation is a flat failure. The only possible explanation that’ could be offered for its continuance, they maintain, would be the stubborn- ness of its sponsors in the Traffio Bureau. From the very first the present pro- vision has been open to a devastating attack on the ground that it lacked logic. With uniformity the unquestioned desirability of traffic regulation, stu- dents of the subject have been at @ loss to reconcile the requirement of one kind of left turn at this corner and another at that with the principles of intelligent motor vehicle direction. Apart from its fundamental weak-« ness, the present left-turn rule has given rise to a host of complications that have strangled a once safer and smoother flowing stream of traffic. These complications have recruited te the army of opponents of the law thousands of motorists who, when it was first proposed, held an entirely open mind to the experiment of the traffic bureau. Chorus Against Regulations. Their voices swell the chorus of dread over the possibility that the traffic officials may stubbornly main- tain that the present regulation has even a single commendatory feature. ° The confusion created by a duplex rule is. the chief of the grave defects of the present regulation. At inter- sections where a traffic officer is on duty one pulls over to the right to make one’s left turn; at others, one turts from the center of the street. In the first place, the law apparently presumes that the traffic officer is visible to drivers coming from all di- rections. The absurdity of such a sup- position is obvious to everyone who has driven a motorcar in Washington. The only place from which one could see the traffic officer is from the ex- treme left lane. Yet, from this vantage point of visibility, one can not turn. If traffic officers were on duty at intersections at definite hours every day, by a process of driving one route continually the motorist might memorize the manifold data essential to a successful, smooth left turn. But they are not. a situation that was con- fusing under the old left turn rule, but which under the present creates nothing but chaos. Tourists Complicate Situation. Tourist visitors to the Capital falf into the same mistake thousands of times, still further complicating the traffic stream for themselves and the local tens of thousands of street users. They, too, condemn the regulation as one of the most irrational met in their trevels. A second complication is the failure of a considerable proportion of drivers to comprehend the law with all its jokers. Evidencing the clear need that such a regulation should be one thing or another, this type of driver, having learned to make turns according to that part of the regulations applying to policed or lighted intersections, con- tinues to make them the same way at unpoliced and unlighted corners. Pulling to the right with his arm exe tended means to the man who knows the regulations that the _ signaling driver is going to make a right turn. The latter natuarlly assumes the right to continue straight ahead at an un~ diminished speed. Then, the signal giver turns left. The left-turn regu- lation has set the stage for serious ac cidents. Young Gorilla Weeps When Unloaded at Zoo Sobbing like a heart-broken child, a 3-year-old gorilla was unloaded at the National Zological Park yesterday. The animal, said to be one of two in the United States, is the only one of his kind ever to inhabit the local z00. He is the gift of Walter P. Chrysler, automobile manufacturer. The gorilla is named N’Gi. He was captured last year in the jungles of Spanish Guinea. Africa, by J. L. Buck, an animal dealer. Mr. Buck was present at the z»9 when N’Gi was un- loaded and succeedee in stililng his sobs. N’G! weighs 35 pounds and when grown, which will be several years hence, if he lives, will weigh 400 or 500 pounds. Due to the fact that gorillas do not live long in captivity, z0o Officials state they will take every precaution with N’Gi. Kiwanis Club to Have Kiddies’ Christmas Tree Plans for a Christmas tree at the Chestnut Farms Dairy auditorium for underprivileged children whom the Kiwanis Club of Washington is assist- ing, were proposed yesterday by Presi- dent Radford Moses at the club’s week- ly luncheon meeting at the Washington Hotel. Between 50 and 60 children will receive gifts from the tree when it is presented to them Sunday, Decem- ber 23 Moses also announced that an inves-e tigation is being made of the possibili- ties of bringing the Kiwanis interna- tional convention to Washington in 1932. If this is done, .he said, some 10,000 persons would probably attend. That year is the 200th anniversary of the first President’s birth. Berger Introduces Bill To Halt Ku Klux Klan Termination of the activities of the. Ku Klux Klan is proposed in a bill in- troduced in the House yesterday by Representative Victor L. Berger, the So- cialist member from Milwaukee. The Berger bill is largely a copy of that enacted in 1870-71, Under its provi- sions the President is authorized to use the land and naval forces to sup- press the organization. The penalties are $5,000 fine or ten years imprisonment, or both. It would inflict the penalty upon “any two or | more persons to go disguised on the public highways” or who “conspire fx the purpose’of intimidating others in the free exercise of their rights.” | 4 ona AS hy BS xa
