PLAGE VILL OPEN 10 HORAN, REPORT Matter Is Unsettled After Long Night Conference at Hoover’s Home. ENFORCEMENT TANGLE CAUSE OF HESITATION Selection of C. F. Adams, of Boston, for Secretary of Navy Probable. By CARLISLE BARGERON. President-elect Hoover and Senator Borah, of Idaho, had a long conference on the subject of the latter’s taking the Attorney Generalship last night, and at the end the indications are that the matter is still in the air. , The senator went to Mr. Hoover's home on § street disinclined to take the place and prepared to tell Mr. Hoo- ver that political interference would militate against even his doing a good job, just as politics had interfered be- fore. But the President-elect is un- derstood to be willing to give the sena- tor carte blanche authority to enforce prohibition if it can be done. If the senator can convince himself that Mr. Hoover or any President can do this; that prohibition enforcenfent can really be swept clean of politics; that at no time will there be any check reins, it is believed he would be in- clined to look favorably upon the Cabi- net offer. Real Opportunity Offered. With untied hands, the senator is understood to believe that prohibition enforcement offers a real opportunity to a man to render public service at this time, not only because of what he believes is prohibition’s moral and eco- nomic benefit to the country, but be- cause he believes present conditions are striking at the social order. As far as a President can go Mr. Hoover is willing to give a man in whom he has confidence an absolutely free hand in the undertaking of the job. Senator Borah’s doubts are be- lieved to be whether it is possible under the political scheme of things for any one man to give this freedom. There are other forces in the’ govern- mental plan than the President, it is pointed out. At any rate, the matter will be Jeft unsettied for a while. The Department of Justice has come to be Mr. Hoover’s most serious problem. He will be great- ly relieved if he can persuade the Idahoan to take it. If not he must go hunting again just as it develops now he has been doing for some time. Drys Favor Senator. The President-elect is not alone in trying to get the senator to take the place. As soon as the dffer to him pe- came known there has been pressure from the dry forces. He would be an "ideal appointment for them. As the matter is shaping up, either the senator or his pet cause is likely to come out of the matter with a darkened eye. If the senator refuses the post the impression will go gut that he was not willing to make the sercifice for the “cause” or that ne could not bring himself to believe that enforcement could be freed of poli- tics. _ The latter would not speak very well for those who hope for ultimate en- forcement. There was reason to believe here the report originating in Boston that Charies Francis Adams had been of- fered and had accepted the post of Secretary of Navy. He is the great great grandson of John Adams and the great grandson of the second Presi- dent of the family. “He came to see Mr. Hoover at Miami!

Feb. 20 (A.P.).— The Assembly late today voted to im- peach Superior Judge Carlos S. Hardy, of Los Angeles, for alleged misdemean- ors in office. The vote was 57 to 18. The vote was taken after members of the Assembly had argued the matter for five hours today, following intro- duction of recommendations of four members of a special committee ap- pointed to investigate charges that Judge Hardy violated a section of the State constitution when he accepted a $2,500 check from Mrs. Aimee Semple MePherson, Los Angeles evangelist.

CIVIL RETIREMENT BILL GETS CHANCE Coming Up in House Passage of Measure Before End of Session Is Seen. COOLIDGE VETO FEARED Passage at this session of the Dale- Lehlbach bill to Mberalize the civil service retirement act seemed assured yesterday following a meeting of tac House steering committee. The com- mittee promised that it would let the bill come up the latter part of this week. Friends of the bill in the House have always contended that if the leaders would let it come up it would be passed by an overwhelming majority. Untjl the steering committee acted yesterday it was feared that the leaders were determined to smother the Dill just as they did at the last session. A rule giving it a preferred status has been pending for more than a year. The joy with which’ Government workers greeted the news of ta steer- ing committee’s promise yesterday was tempered by a fear that President Cooi- idge may veto the bill if it passes. The President let it be known some time ago that he was opposed to it, bur whether he still feels that way is not known. When the executive's attitude became known, a delegation headed by Presi- dent William Green, of the American Federation of Labor, called at the White House to try and convince him of the merit of the bill.

DEFENDS AIDS AS “CLEAN” New Haven, Conn., Feb. 20 (A.P.).— Intelligent cooperation by State and municipal governments and not more concentration of power in the Federal Government was declared tonight by James M. Doran, Federal prohibition commissioner, to be the pathway that will lead to more effective enforcement of prohibition. Speaking before the department of economics, sociology and “government of Yale University, the commissioner charged that unsatisfactory conditions existing tn some communities “are due almost without exception to the abject failure of local authority to assume its proper obligation and to enforce the criminal law.” “The Federal Gov- ernment,” he said, “has substantially fulfilled its obligation under the con- current clause of the eighteenth amend- ment.” “I am ‘mpressed with the fact,” con- tinued Doran, “that public, discussion devolves almost entirely on the effect- iveness or ineffectiveness of the enforce- ment of the law by the Federa: Govern- ment, and the facts upon which these discussions are based relate almost en- tirely to local retail sales situations that are distinctly and unquestionably the province of State or local author- ity to handle.” pened at the conference was not made known, but the members of the delega- tion seemed very much satisfied when they left the White House. Robert H. Alcorn, chairman of the joint conference on retirement, was elated when he learned yesterday of the promise made by the steering com- mittee. Alcorn has been haunting the Capitol day in and day out winning over members to the bill. On Tuesday Alcorn turned over to Representative Dallinger (Republican). CONTINUED ON PAGE 4, COLUMN 4.

Silent on Case. Representative rgil Chapman alias “John Doe,” of Kentucky, is not to be prosecuted, it was learned yesterday, for th alleged use of abusive language in front of Poli’s Theater January 12 to Patrolman 8. P. Smith, when the police officer warned him of a minor traffic violation. The case was nolle prossed February 7, according to official papers brought to light yesterday from a wrong file. Why the case was nolle prossed could not be learned, as Assistant Corporation Counsel Chester H. Gray, who entered the motion, refused to discuss the mat- ter. Neither would Mr. Chapman talk about the case, answering, “I have nothing to say,” when seen at the Cap- itol. The case had been continued until Tuesday. but was not called. Inspection of the court docket revealed that it was incomplete, After his attention had been Called to the fact, Fearson W. Gawler, superintendent of files and records of the court, yesterday found the papers had been improperly filed. On Tuesday, before it was revealed that the charges against Chapman had been dropped, Mr. Gray, on whose mo- tion the nolle prosse was entered, evad- ed an answer to an inquiry regarding what disposition had been made of the case. Mr. Gray objected to being “pinned down” to an answer. When the “missing” papers were found he refused to tell why he entered the nolle prosse. F . Commissioner Doran declared that the movement on the part of some local authorities to “evade and sidestep their responsibilities took form as soon as the national prohibition act became a law.” In some cities, he said, corrupt political machines, through police de- partments, made alliancés with the underworld and built up *!"ait liquor rongs. The Prohibition Bureau head quoted from a decision of the Supreme Court handed down in 1920 which said that the prohibition act “is operative throughout the United States, binds all legislative bodies, courts, public officers and individuals within these limits,” to support his contention that State and municipal officers should share more of the burden of enforcing the law. Doran defended the agenst of the Federal Prohibition Bureau as being “as clean as any body of men of like number in any service throughout the land.” He suggested that employes of Federal District Attorney’s offices throughout the country be placed un- der civil service. “There is much talk about corrup- tion in the Federal service,” Doran said. “Let me say that at no time has the Federal Government failed to take drastic measures to maintain a clean service. Recent disclosures Of condi- tions in police departments in some of our large cities should be enlightening to the general public as to where some of the weaknesses in enforcement Lie. “One of the prohibition administra- tors, whose headquarters is in a large Eastern city, told me that he was of the opinion that during the past year more speakeasies were raided by the local police for failure to pay graft than for the fact that » they were obviously CONTINUED ON ‘PAGE 3, COLUMN 5.) * AMERICA READY TO PARTICIPATE IN WORLD COURT Powers Willing to Alter Law to Meet Senate’s Reservations. KELLOGG’S NOTE HELD FIRST STEP IN MOVE Root and Hughes Are Believed to Know of Plans for U. S. Membership. By ALBERT W. FOX. America is to be assured member- ship in the World Court within the next few weeks and Secretary Kellogg’s identic note to the powers is part of the preliminary procedure to pave the way for this event of international im- portance, according to reports reach- ing here through diplomatic quarters. Following agreement among the court jurists next month to “clarify” the statute under which the court operates, each nation-member of the court is to be asked to accept this clarifica- tion which automatically will harmon- Senate reservations with the ac- cepted provisions of the statute. Under the present court statute, ad- visory opinions may be requested by a majority vote of the League of Nations council, An alteration in the sta- tute whereby a unanimous vote would be required would give all members of the council the same veto power which the United States would have under the fifth reservation which the Senate included in the resolution of ratifica- tion of the World Court protocol. Claim Revision is Known, There is reason to believe that both Mr. Hughes and Mr. Root already know precisely how. the court statute is to be revised. In some quarters it is sug- gested that these two. distinguished Americans and leading jurists are themselves responsible for the proposed revision. Mr. Hughes has been chosen to be a member of the court and Mr. Root is on his way to Geneva now. Secretary of State Kellogg may be in Europe at the same time, though no announcement of the Secretary's trip abroad has been made and there is no intimation that Mr. Kellogg will seek to participate in any international discussions. His chief effort may be to avoid such discussions, but diplo- mats predict that the process of avoid- ance is not easily executed under pres- ent circumstances. The plan to get American into the World Court calls for a change in the court statute which will harmonize the court’s future procedure with the fifth reservation which the United States Senate imposed as a condition of Amer- ican membérship when the World Court protocol wag ratified by the Senate in 1926. This reservation said that the court shall not render any advisory opinion nor entertain any request for an ad- visory opinion, without the consent of the United States, “touching any dis- pute or question in which the United States has or claims an interest.” Advisory Opinions Important. The rendering of advisory opinions is one of the important functions of the court. In many cases of dispute between nations, this feature would virtually decide the issue, as the league council would be guided by the ad- visory opinion. The American reservation gave the United States a power of veto greater than any member of the council. Con- sequently the reservation was spurned by the powers in 1926. Nations comprising the League of Na- tions c dined and acted in concert in declining to accept this American res- e~v-tion. Fifteen of the nations never even acknowledged Secretary Kellogg’s communication which included the res- ervation. With very few exceptions, the world powers deliberately rebuffed the United States, inc Secretary Kellogg's identic note now sent to 47 nations shows that the American position does not harmonize with suggestions made by the league powers. But Mr. Kellogg’s note adds signifi- cantly: “Possibly the interests of the United States thus attempted to be safeguarded may be fully protected in some other way or by some other for- mula.” This is the key to the new solution. Not only is “some other formula” to be proposed when the World Court jurists meet next month, but this formula is understood to have already been drawn CONTINUED ON PAGE 5, COLUMN 3.

WIDE HUNT Prosecutor Bride Announces He Is Ready to suk Proceedings Against Captain; Blanton Again Turns His Guns on Accused, Alleging Torture of Chinese Student. Mrs. Helen F.

The charge against Burlingame at this time will be “conduct unbecom- trig an officer,” and it will be based on the celebrated “Heartscre Daddy” let- ters he is alleged to have written the palmist. Corporation Counsel W. W. Bride, who will serve as prosecutor in the Burlin- game trial, said last midnight that he did not know whether he would call Mrs. Blalock as a witness. “It is not absolutely necessary that she bé called as a witness,” Bride said. “It all depends on what she is willing to teatify to,” Bride said that he and. his associ- ates had feared that Mrs. Blalock would not return, and had ‘prepared their case accordingly. Graver Charges Pending. The sudden turn of events, he said, left him in doubt ag to just what would be done now that she has been found. But even had it been announced defi- nitely that Mrs. Blalock would not be needed before the trial board, Collins would have gone after Mrs. Blalock, for it is known that he himself has ques- tions to ask that concern matters much more grave than will ever be asked Burlingame Saturday. In her affidavit against Burlingame Mrs, Blalock said\she had fled from Washington because she was afraid the officer would kill her. Collins already has stated that he is prepared to offer the woman full protection. Now that Mrs. Blalock has been found, the inside story of the Nation- wide search for her can be told. On December 15 Mrs. Blalock held a secret conference in Bethesda, Md., with Chairman Gibson of the investi- gating committee of the House District committee, and told her story to him. About three weeks later, Mrs. Bla~- lock was in Abilene, Tex., telling her story to Representative Thomas L. Blanton. After hearing it and com- municating with Gibson, Blanton had the woman swear out an affidavit against Burlingame. The next chapter came when, at a meeting here of the Gibson subcom- mittee, Blanton faced Burlingame accuser of Police Capt. Guy E. Burlingame, coming back to Washington befor@® the week is dover, it was learned last night. At the same time, it developed that Mrs. Blalock is to be questioned of a far more serious nature than those which thus far have been made public. The long-missing palmist, who has accused Burlingame of threaten- ing her life and her property, was located in Chicago by Department of Justice agents who had been trailing her up and down and across Assistant District Attorney William H. Collins, who has been investi- gating charges against Burlingame with a view to presenting. them to the grand jury, left for Chicago yesterday within an hour after J. cf Investigation of the Department of Justice, had announced that the woman had been discovered. Collins was arméd ‘with a Federal Subpena calling Mrs. Blalock back to Washington, and he hoped to serve it on her before noon today. It is expected that they wil) get back in the city by tomorrow. far away frem Washington as possible. Flies From St. Louis. Pinally they located her in St. Louis, sources of funds, realizing that in- evitably she would eommunicate with her friends or her banker. And they were right; it was through funds sent to her that she finally was located. Having heard of Mrs. Blalock’s nervous temperament, the Department of Justice took every means to keep their search a sécref, One fear wae that, if she should hear that she was being sought, she might attempt to take her life. Blanton Assails Bowman. Representative Blanton, who obtained the affidavit from Mrs. Blalock, yes- terday went after Burlingame again, charging that the captain was one of the three men who had “tortured” Ziang Sun Wan, a Chinese student, and forced him into signing a confession that almost cost him his life. ingame at a meeting of the House Dis- trict committee.

The foreign secretary spoke in re- sponse to questions propounded by members of the house, some of which intimated that there was a conflict be- tween Sir Esme’s statement and a com- munique issued the next day by the foreign office. He denied this and said that the home office pronouncement was put out to correct misunderstand- ings which arose from varying interpre- tations of the Foward statement. He gave no intimation of the trend of the new British thought on naval questions, but he indicated the im- portant and far-reaching changes which are taking place in the British policy on disarmament as well as the question of defining “freedom of the seas.” He did this by revealing that the dominions are sharing in the gov- ernment’s study of these problems. Replying to a specific question, he said that Britain had no intention of issuing invitations for a new disarma- ment conference. It was recalled, moreover, that there has been no in- dication that any such move was con- templated. The burden of summoning the projected 1931 oonference at Wash- ington, to which the five powers repre- sented at the 1021-22 gathering. con- sented, rests with the United States. In addition there ig the coming general preparatory conference which the League of Nations has called for the middle of April in Geneva.

They hoped to re- stock food supplies before other slides again cut off transportation lanes. A large engine with double crews left Durango for the slide area and it was understood an effort would be made to press a large rotary plow into service to clear the few remaining amall slides on the railroad tracks between Needileton and Silverton.

Manning and Private James W: Mus- grove are charged with “bringing liquor into the camp in violation of existing orders” and Private Herbert L. Long is charged with having liquor in his pos- session. The men will soon face a genera! court-martial, Col. Oliver 8. Eskridge, commandant of the post, said. The charges were preferred by Capt. Cor- nelius E. Ryan, who is in charge of the investigation. During the first stages of the investi- gation that followed Private Fotcey’s death it was stated that charges of in- voluntary manslaughter would be pre- ferred against the two sergeants. Later it was decided to drop these charges for lack_of evidence that Forcey had ob- tained from either of the sergeants the liquor that killed him. Col. Eskridge said last night that the evidence unearthed thus far tended ‘to show that the four men charged and perhaps others had been cooperating in bringing Hquor into the camp.

MEETING HERE Order’s Problems Discussed at Round Table of Grand Masters. PLAN SHRINE PILGRIMAGE A variéty of subjects of peculiar in- terest to Masons were discussed yester- day at a conference of grand masters of Masons in the United States at the Willard Hotel. The agenda of the conference, in- cluding topics touching on the numer- ous interests and activities of Masonry, was interrupted shortly before noon in order that conference members might pay their respects to President Coolidge, who received them at the White House and posed for a photograph. Immediately following the roll call of States, the conference elected Byrne E. Bigger, grand master of Missouri, as chairman, and J. Claude Keiper, past grand master of the District of Colum- bia, as secretary. It was decided to hold the next meeting in Washington, February 20, 1930. Many Subjects Discussed. Charity funds for relief, Masonic ed- ucation, new organizations predicating their membership on Freemasonry, Ma- sonic temples, the relationship of Ma- sonic fraternity to the youth of Amer-~ ica, and the reports of several commit- tees occupied members during a busy day. Planned addresses -were not fea- tured, the conference turning to round table discussion of subjects by grand masters especially experienced in the activities touched upon. Discussion of the Order of De Molay under the question “Is the order of ad- vantage to Masonry,” brought forth spirited remarks, it being the consensus that the order, which is known pepu- larly as an organization sponsored by Masons among youth, offers problems which demand sympathetic treatment by men who understand the “poys’ viewpoint.” Pan-American Question. Certain difficulties were alluded to in the report of the committee of the list of grand lodges recognized by jurisdic- tions of the United States, with espe- clal reference to Mexico and Honduras, the question in the latter country re- volving around whether the organized gtand lodge of the country should be recognized. The point was made that this grand lodge has caused to be out- lawed al] non-English-speaking Masons, and that to recognize the lodge would be, in effect, to outlaw the same ele- ment. On the other hand, recognition of the non-English-speaking Masons would antagonize the other group. Last evening the grdnd masters and past grand masters met at dinner, and today their schedule called for a visit to Alexandria, where the Masonic na- tional shrine, tn honor of George Wash- ington, is under construction.

THE WASHINGTON POST: THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 21. 1929. ee ee ae et FOR OTEEL WORKERS Labor Federation Opens Cam- paign to Organize Corpora- tion’s Employes. FIGHT ON IDLENESS BEGUN Miami, Fla., Feb. 20 (N.Y.W.N.8.).—The executive council of the American Fed- eration of Labor, taking advantage of a recent cut in wages in the Elwood, Ind., plant of the United States Steel Cor- poration, today fired the first gun in a campeign to organize the employes of America’s largest manufacturing cor- poration. | “The probabilities are,” the council declared in a carefully prepared state- ment reviewing the cut of from 7 to 10 per cent in wages of sheet and tin workers, “that if the workers in -he United States Steel Corporation plant at Elwood had been or , no re- duction in wages would have been im- posed. “This action ought to convince all the employes of the corporation’ of the necessity of being organized into trade unions for self-protection and mutual advancement. The executive council pro to give this matter special consideration and attention.” “Use Your Imagination,” He Says. “Just what does that mean?” Preal- dent William Green was asked. “Use your imagination,” he replied. Swinging to the matter of unemploy- ment, which took up most of the coun- cil’s time today, Mr. Green disclosed that among the remedies for idleness which the council will propose to any commission President-elect Hoover may designate, it will propose that employers adopt the policy of guaranteeing a given amount of work to its people each year. : “If,” said he, “a plant requires nor- mally say 2,200 hands ~ year, there is no reason why 2,200 men and women ‘should not be guaranteed 48 or 50 weeks employment, vith the employer free to put on as many additional hands as he might require for the peak period. “Industry owes it to those it employs to iron out the peaks and valleys of em- ployment as Mr. Hoover long ago urged and it should recognize its obligation.” For Prevention Before Cure. In seeking unemployment action at this time, Mr. Green said that the council believes in prevention before cure is necessary. “The employment situation today,” he said, “is spotty. It.is good in some places and bad in others. If it Is necessary we will ask Congress to pro- hibit all immigration for a period of ten years.” The cut, on which the council's ac- tion is based, grows out of a cut which the steel corporation's subsidiary, the American Sheet & Tin Plate Co., made on the ground of freight charges which in Elwood amount to $2.39 a ton, as against nominal switching charges in other plants. This explanation, the council holds, “ts unsound.” The cut, it asserts, “is both socially and économioally unjusti- filable and unwarranted.” “If such a policy were pursued by employes generally,” says the council, “our boasted prosperity would ee overnight. o corporation can defend itself from an attack when it reduces the wages of its workmen and deciares a stock dividend at approximately the same time.” Seeks Hand in Dry Law Inquiry. The council this afternoon instructed Mr. Green to ask for labor represente- tion on any commission to invéstigate the workings of the prohibition laws that Mr. Hoover may appoint, and to prepare amendments to the substitute anti-injunction bill prepared by Sert- tors Thomas F. Walsh, Norris and Blaine, and push the amended bill be- fore the extra session of Congress. “As both parties declared for relief in the matter of injunctions tn the Iast election and Mr. Hoover reiterated the pledge on the stump,” seid Mr. Green, “we are hopeful of securing action this time.” The protest of the teachers’ union against the ban placed upon Brook- wood Labor College was tabled, to be taken up later on by e special com- of Matthew Woll, John P.

CHICAGO CLEWS FAIL AN GANGSTER SEAR Police Confident of Finding Slayers of Seven, but - Trails Grow Cold. » NEW THEORY OF REVENGE . » . . fold murder blood a week ago seems destined to pass | Chicago, Feb. 20 (A.P.).—The seven- that chilled Chicago's into the limbo of unsolved if not for- gotten crimes. Police bulletins still hold their sanguine note. From detectives. police, State and Government investi- gators come daily new expressions of hope, new theories whose tangents reach Out toward ganglands of Detroit and Chicago. Track after track has been followed, > trails have seemed warm, but today a . > ® months later. ° week of hunt had brought the quarry no clearer in view and the episode that left the greatest smirch on Chicago's gang records showed symptoms of end- ing, as every other gang murder has ended, with the notation: “Slayer not caught.” Capt. William Shoemaker of the de- tective bureau, advanced the. latest theory—that the Moran ;angsters were sloughtered in their headquarters in retaliation for the assassin. tion of Tony Lombardo and Pasqualino Lolordo, his successor as head of the Unione Sicill- ano. Lombard? was shot to death last fall on a busy downtown street. Lo- Jordo was killed in| his home a few . Theory Given to Stege. Capt. Shoemaker advanced the the- ory that Lombardo and Lolordo, who, he said, operated a liquor business in Opposition to the Moran gang on the North Side, had inherited the gang fol- lowing and liquor interests of “Scar- face Al” Capone when Capone left Chicago several months ago, and the Moran gang. fearful of their growing strength, had annihilated the leaders. Then, Capt. Shoemaker reasoned, the enemies of the Moran mob set out to *» get revenge—and the seven deaths > ’ ® % real policemen. , . » minutes last Thursday, were the result. . Police declared they were following a “warm” trail and expected definite developments soon. Capt. Shoemaker laid his theory before Deputy Commis- sioner John Stege today when Stege re- turned from a vacaticn in Cuba to take charge of the investigation. Stege had talked with Capone in Florida. It also developed today that George . (Bugs) Moran, leader of the gang that was almost wiped out, and Willie Marks, his aid, both missed death by when their enemies invaded the Moran headquar- ters and shot down every one there. Both were on their way to the meet- ing of the Moran faction when the shootings occurred. Moran Filed. Is Belief. Morah was reported to have fled in fear of his life since the slayings. Another theory evolved by prohibi- tion agents was that the slayers, some of whom wore police uniforms, were In connection with this t there were reports that » the authorities had been informed @ ) policeman who was part owner of a roadhouse had blamed the Moran gang for hijacking liquor in which he was interested. | A third theory in connection with the killings — that members of the purple gang of Detroit were the Killers -——was revived with the arrest there a man who, with two others, ha ‘been partly identified as having rented rooms across from the Moran head- quarters a few days before the kill-+ ings. The Detroit police said they were holding him for investigation, although after the partial identification it had been announced that all those so iden- tified were in Detroit at the time of \, the slayings.

PRELATE IS CALLED REBEL Mexico City, Feb. 20 (U.P.).—The government is expected to take action against the, five leading capital news- papers—possibly in the form of an ad- vertising boycott—as a result of an official statement issued today by the interior department, declaring the newspapers “accomplices of crime.” The statement was made as a result of publication of a statement by Bishop Miguel de la Mora, in which the bishop denied the church aided rebels and said priests in Mexico would be permitted to register on their own responsibility if they desired to permit the government to humiliate them. The president approved the interior department's statement promising en- ergetic punishment for the editors re- sponsible for publication of Bishop de la Mora’s statement. It -was recalled that President Portes Gil removed all official advertising from the newspaper Excelsior and forbade advertisers to use the newspaper as a result of what he considered antigovernment newspa- per stories. The newspaper changed hands within two weeks. The statement today said: “The newspapers Prensa, Excelsior and Universal and the afternoon news- papers Ahey contro] published declara- tions signed by Miguel de la Mora, self-styled Bishop of San Luis Potosi, in which a frank spirit of rebellion prevails. “By order of the president, the sec- retariat charges that directors of the newspapers, in printing such, solidi- fied themselves with Mora. making themselves accomplices in crime.” The statement further asserted that the liberty of the press has been trans- gressed many times by publication of harmful news and that the govern- ment considers Bishop Mora in open rebellion. Bishop Mora has been in hiding here for months. “Now, once and for all,” the state- ment concluded, “the government as- serts those responsible for printing what tends to excite disorder and re- bellion will be energetically punished because thereby they deliberately vio- lete the law and fmisuse liberty.” Students Try Holdup For Thrill; Captured Philadelphia, Feb, 20 (U.P.).—Two 19-year-old Syracuse University stu- dents, one of them a professor’s son, pleaded guilty today to staging a “thrill” holdup after running away to travel for adventure. Judge Harry 5S. McDevitt ordered the youths, Theodore Weirs and Robert King, remanded to Moyamensing prison while he considers sentence. James L. Alloway, 70, was their victim. He testified that he was struck over the head from behind. “ “Do you want to follow in the foot- steps of Loeb and Leopold?” asked the judge of the two youths.

WORKMEN RIDING TO JOBS Peoria, Ill., Feb. 20 (A.P.).—Flive miners were killed, four s0 seriously hurt that they may die, and about 150 others suffered less severe injuries in a\train wreck today. Four cars of an eight-coach train of the Peoria Ter- minal Railway Co. plunged over 4 25- foot embankment near Hollis, 5 miles south of here. The train, carrying about 750 miners to work at the Crescent coal mines, 15 miles south of Peoria, was proceed- ing at the rate of only 12 or 15 miles an hour. miners and railroad officials said, when one of the coaches was thrown off the track by what miners said was a broken rail ind broken “fish plate,” the iron bar connecting the rails. One car after another tumbled down the embankment with their loads of from 60 to 75 miners each, until four cars were piled in the ditch, some of them almost upside down, others on their sides.~A fifth car left the tracks and slid part way down the bank, but remained upright. Heater Fires Coach. In some of the cars were *oal heaters and one of them was set afire by an overturned stove. The blaze was ex- tinguished before it had spread to other cars, but not before a miner was prob- ably fatally burned. He was pulled from the car by a companion. The homes of many of the men were nearby and within a few minutes scores of wives, mothers, and children were rushing frantically to the scene, some facing the 5-below-zero weather with- out stopping to don wraps. The first of the injured were taken to hospitals in Peoria by passing mo- torists. This fact added to the con- fusion of those hunting for relatives. One hysterical woman heard the name of her husband called off as among the dead, only to find him alive and only slightly hurt a few minutes later. ' | WARD—O Forty Still in Hospitals. Tonight 40 injured men still were in hospitals. About 100 others had been treated for minor injuries and taken to their homes. Inose Killed were William Brown, Lester Jones, George Wilkingon, Cecil Walker and Charles Luthy, all residing in or near Peoria. Among those so seriously hurt were James Clark, Henry Zorn, Bert Noél and Henry Zimmer. Wilkinson was sitting, with his son when the crash came. The son helped pull his father from the wreckage and Started with him to the hospital but stopped to notify the wife and mother. When they reached the hospital the man was dead. Biames Broken Fishplate. Brown tried to leap from a smashed window and struck the ground just as the car in which he was riding fell on him.

CHARLESTON LEADER HELD Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 20 (United Press).—Wandering in a field, one of his feet partially frozen, William Young, one of five convicts who broke cut of the State\ Penitentiary at dawn yesterday, Was captured near Shades- ville tonight. Young was the fourth of the escaped convicts to ‘be taken into custody. Shortly after Young’s capture was announced it was learned that Gerald Flemmer, one of the six men who es- caped from the county Jat) at Charies- ton. W. Va., this morning, had been captured a few blocks from the fail. Advices from Charleston said that Flemmer offered no resistance when he was found itn a residence there. Meanwhile the search continued for six other escaping prisoners, one who was with Young and three others who broké the State Penitentiary here Tuesday morning, and five who escaped with Flemmer from the Charleston jail today. McDermott First Retaken. Those captured previously were the notorious Pat McDermott, the red- headed “trigger man” who ambushed and killed Don Mellett, crusading edi- tor of the Canton Dally News; Mike Jacko, Cleveland lifer, and John Russo. Cleveland robber. Young's capture was effected by Dep- uty Sheriff Martin and Constable Guy Guy also had captured Russo near Shadesville. Young told the officers he had not eaten since his escape. He showed no fight and pleaded with the officers to kill him rather than return him to the prison here. Roads along the Ohio River were patroled tonight as peace cfficers of three States—Ohio, Kentucky and West Virginila—sought six prisoners who daringly escaped in two Jail breaks in this section. Five men sawed their way from the Ohio State Penitentiary here yesterday and four of them have been captured. This morning six prisoners in the Charleston (W. Va.) County Jail beat a guard unconscious, sawed away the bars and fled. Their filght.was marked with violence. They robbed a store of provisions, commandeered three motor cars, binding the owners to trees, aban- doned two of the machines and five of them now are believed speeding toward the Ohlo River in the hope of finding refuge in the hill regioh on the other side. The six men sought tonight include James A. Walton, who escaped from the Ohio Penitentiary; Adron Bias, Dana Bias, Julian Lieble, Virgil Kemplin and W. R. Proctor, who escaped from the Charlestgn Jail, Break Carefully Planned. The’ West Virginia outbreak today was a carefully-planned affair. Five of the men hid last night in the “bull pen” of the Kanawha County Jail and remained there until guards had locked up all other prisoners in cells. The five had crowded close to the wall in the dark bull pen so0 they would not be detected. After the jail was quiet they sawed their way out of their confining quarters and waited for the dawn. This morning Elvin Wittington,. a guard, started his rounds of the jail to rouse the prisoners for breakfast, The five watched and followed him to the second floor. Then they. struck him over the head with a short tron bar, released the sixth man and escaped from the jail. They first held up a grocery store in the west end of the city, getting $5 and some provisions, and then started com- mandeering motor cars. Three were taken, two of which have been recov- ered. One of the motor cars recovered Was that of George Thomas. It was found near Gallipolis, Ohio, after officers had chased it several miles. Police arrested Thomas who said he had been held up in Charleston and his machine taken by the men. Bridges Are Barricaded, The men were reported heading speedily toward Athens, Ohio, and bridges have been barricaded to pre- vent their crossing the Ohio River. 2ro- lice officers along the entire route have been notified. It is not known whether the men are armed. Meanwiiie Columbus officers are searching in the vicinity of Shades ville for Walton, John Russo was caught near there early today and It is believed the other will be found in that vicinity. Mike Jacko and McDermott were found not far from the penitentiary. They were almost famished and great- ly in need of drinking water. The two had commandeered a motor cor, but had been forced to stop at a barbecue stand for a drink. They were captured without resistance. McDer- mott continued to sneer, even though his freedom had been short lived. Representative James T. Anderson, of ‘ nton, this afternoon in the State house of representatives demanded a legislative investigation of the peniten- tiary break. He said the State was en- titled to know whether the escape was due to laxity of the prison officials. Mr. Fix ig a handy man to do the little odd jobs you've been putting off doing from day to day.

Oldham found at the courthouse to- day a “sheep claim” for $15 for a rabbit killed by dogs. The fiscal agent has already paid the claim to Stanley H. Wells, but that doesn’t keep Oldham from investigating. In a discussion, held informally in the county clerk’s office, it was as- serted that a rabbit isn’t an animal, but this was countered by the claim that a rabbit certainlgs isn’t a vege- table and the meeting adjourned without any definite conclusion be- ing reached. Oldham copied for reference all data in the case, including Wells’ claim that the victim of ‘canine In- stincts was a “Flemish giant rabbit, eligible to registration.” : HOOVER POINTS: NEW NEED FOR ENEINEERS Politics and Economics Can Also Be Served, Speaker | Asserts He Holds. ' COULD TRANSFORM NATION New York, Feb. 20 (A.P.).—A state- ment credited to Herbert Hoover that engineers could transform national thought in twenty years was quoted to the American Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers tonight by its retiring president, Dr. George Otis Smith, Dr. Smith said that a civilization speeded up by applied science needs en- gineers in its social and political as well as industrial affairs. “In the words of Herbert Hoover,” he said, “ ‘engineers by being a little more vocal and by acting more collectively could trans- form the thought of this Nation with- in another twenty years.’ “We need to realize that high-speed living involves fast spending. The ac- celeration that has characterized these recent years can not long continue without some check. There must be some slowing down in ffe installation of modern improvements in this old world in which we live. Engineers Needed in Politics. “We practical-minded folk must re- gret that in the half century that has witnessed such extraordinary progress in the physical sciences, improvement in social and political affairs has lagged far behind. Even in this enlightened year of 1929 the economies of the steel plant have not penetrated the market place, and the high efficiency of the creators of our electrica] equipment !s not copied by those who control our rcity governments. Is not the lesson ob- vious that engineers are needed in economics and politics? “Elimination of waste is essentially an engineering problem, whether that waste takes the Yorm of unmarketed crops- or of uneducated children, of rust or of graft, of decay of timbers or of rottenness of public officials. I would therefore urge adoption of the engineering type of specifications even for intangibles.” Gold medals for achievements in mining and metallurgy were presented to three men tonight at the annual banquet of the American Mining and Metallurgical Engineers. Due to the inability of President-elect Herbert Hoover to be present the presentation of the medal voted him was deferred until later in the year at Washington. Hammond Is Honored. John Hays Hammond received the Willlam Lawrence Saunders medal, the highest award the institute can bestow. Mr. Hoover was the recipient last year. Paul Dyer Merica, research director for the International Nickel Co. was awarded by proxy the James Douglass gold medal. He was ill and unable to be present, and the medal was received by Bidney Rolle in his behalf. . Edgar C. Bain, metallurgist of the United States Steel Corporation, was awarded the Robert W. Hunt medal for his paper, “An Introduction to the Iron |Chromium Alloys.” William E. Grif- fiths, associated in the authorship of 'the paper, received the Hunt cash award of $250. The medal to be presented to Mr. Hoover later is the John Fritz medal. DRY HEAD CONTENDS .

ALBANY DIRECTOR QUITS New York, Feb. 20 (A.P.).—The 6su- spension of Thomas Shannon, confi- dential agent and second in command Campbell in the New York district, was disclosed today. not made known by Campbell nor would other Federa] authorities ex- plain, but from persons . acquainted with prohibition enforcement came predictions that the grand jury inves- tigation growing out of two raids last week, in which liquor valued at $500,- 000 was seized, would result in sensa- tional developments. The raids, made in a building in West Fourteenth street housing the Monroe Lamp & Equipment Co. —_ at, the Internationa] Postal Supply Co., in Brooklyn. were carried out by special agents from Washington and elsewhere under the direction of Will- iam J. Calhoun, itn charge of investi- tion of inter-District and interstate violations of the Volstead act. The local prohibition unit knew nothing of the move. Liquor Found, Is Charge. Authorities said they found liquer in the Fourteenth street building on The charges against Shannon were, to Prohibition Administrator Maurice | ' the floor where the Monroe Co., head- New York County, a prominent leader in Tamany Hall, has space, and at the Brooklyn establishment. The head of the latter is James McGunn, who is also secretary-treasurer of the Monroe firm. Authorities absolved the lamp company from any connection with the liquor traffic. Investigators said, however, that McGunn, who its believed to be in Nas- sau, Bahamas. was friendly with Shannon, but no details as to their relations, were disclosed. McGunn was said by authorities to be the head of a liquor ring catering to_an exclusive clientele. . Shannon was suspended last Thurs- day on information furnished by Rob- ert B. Watts, assistant United States attorney, Campbel] asserted. The sus- pension was said to have taken place under orders from Washington. Shan- non had been a prohibition agent for eight years and Campbell referred to him as one of the ablest assistants he had: ever had. Albany Chief Resigns. Albany, N. Y., Feb. 20 (A.P.).—George W. Gay has resigned as chief of the Al- bany prohibition enforcement bureau, Palmer Canfield, recently appointed ad- ministrator of the Northern New York district, announced today. He also an- nounced the resignation of Walter D. Galan, an agent. The two resignations follow recent reports that a shake-up was in pros- pect. Canfield tonight refused to dis- cuss Gay’s resignation and turned a deaf ear to reports- that at least six more agents are to go. He did say, however, that hé would have an an- nouncement to make after he has con- ferred with Lowel K. Smith, his as- sistant. ) Gay, once tefmed “the best enforce- ment officer in the service” by Andrew McCampbell, administrator in charge of the Buffalo district, also refused to comment. He became chief of the A)- bany bureau on June 21, 1927. Since that time he has directed more than 1,700 raids, made more than 2,000 ar- rests, and seized contraband valued by the office at more than $500,000. ‘ Free State Raises Tariff.

Forcing them upon me was unfair. However, I had to bear the expense. Had I not ac- ceded to the musicians’ demands other unions associated with the theater would have joined farces against me. There is in operation here a federa- tion of unions—musicians, stage hands and others. These have a working agreement. Their demands must be met by theater operators—or all the unions will strike. Whether they want to or not, members of one union must walk out in sympathy with other unions. With this as their weapon, the musicians first. forced me to employ three men. They now demand that I employ seven unfil June 10, after which time they would ‘permit’ me to have only three men for the months of June, July and August. Therefore they penalize me with the same number of men they demand of the theater for traveling road attractions charging from $2.50 to $5.50 which could play} to gross receipts as high as 660,000 a week. They attempt to.classify my 81 top stock company as the ‘legitimate theafer.” By no stretch of the! imagi- nation can this be done. only exact four men from the Bel The- ater, which shortly resumes fs legiti- mate policy with the top price of $2.50, whereas they are asking me to employ Seven men with a $1 top scale where my gross receipts are limited. On Sat- urday af n, February 16, previous to my opening on the following Mon- day, I was given this ultimatum, and, having my company under a two weeks’ contract, I had to submit, under pro- test, to the installation of a seven- plece orchestra. Claims Profit Disappears, “The cost of the additional four men completely eliminates the chance of any profit. In fact, last season the cost of three men during many weeks meant the difference between profit and loss. At a conference with the musicians, members of their board suggested that I could easily raise admission prices t® take care of the cost of the jorches- tra. This, as the public knows, I have not done. “If the Musicians’ Union goes through with this unfair demand.I will be forced to close the doors of this the- ater.

Chairman Snell, of the rules com- mittee, pointed out yesterday that he has stated all along that action on the retirement bill was simply being de- ferred until important appropriation bills and other measures were out of the way. Such a situation, he said, now has arrived. The Dale-Lehlbach bill would in- crease the average retirement annuity to about $800, would make retirement optional after 30 years service, would permit employes to retire two years earlier than they do now.

* GIANT RAILROAD * STOTEMS PROPOSED Van Sweringens and B. & 0. Lay Plans for Mergers in East Before |. C. C. BILLIONS ARE INVOLVED (Associated Press.) Sweeping recasting of the Eastern Tailroad map, impending ever since general railroad consolidation became a definite project, has now been com- pletely outlined before the Interstate Commerce Commission. . Acting almost simultaneously, the Baltimore & Ohio Co. and the Van Sweringen group of railroad interests asked the commission to approve pro- xtTams for extensive enlargement of the transportation systems they now con- trol. The consummation of the plans the commission was asked to approve will result in throwing virtually all the trunk line railroad mileage of the Eastern quarter of the country—except New England—into posession of four giant rail mergers. Two of these sys- tems, the Pennsylvania and the New York Central now exist and «vould be only slightly enlarged. The Van Sweringen proposal was pre- sented to the commission yesterday, while that of the Baltimore & Ohio was submitted Tuesday. Their appli- cations call for the creation. of what amounts to two new rail systems as great as the Pennsylvania and New ork Central. The Baltimore & Ohio, which now operates about 5,000 miles of line, pro- posed to acquire additional rail mile- age which would bring its operated main line to the length of 13,814 miles, with an invested capital of about $2.192,000,000. ‘testpeake & Ohio Proposals.

Both applicants, in addition prom- ised to take care of short or weak rail- roads affected by their amalgamation to any extent the commission directed. The Baltimore & Ohio asked complete control of the Reading and the Central of New Jersey and Western Maryland, in all of which it is row interested. It further asked the right to acquire the Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburgh, the Detroit, Toledo & Ironton, the Chi- cago, Indianapolis & Louisville, all of the Wabash Railway, and also the Ann Arbor and the Lehigh & Hudson River Railroad. | The Chesapeake & Ohio asked the right to acquire the Hocking Valley and Pere Marquette, both of which it now controls; the Erie and the Nickel Plate, Van Sweringen-owned carriers, and in addition the independent systems of the Virginian; the Delaware, Lacka- wanna & Western. the Wheeling & Lake Erie, Chicago & Eastern Illinois, Bes- semer & Lake Erie, Pittsburgh & Shaw- mut, and the Pittsburgh, Shawmut & Northern: Joint Terminal Ownership. Both applicat contemplated that certain bridge and terminal railroads such as the Delaware & Hudson, the Pitteburgh & West Virginia, the Mon- tour Railroad and others, should be jointly owned by the four great trunk systems whose creation is contemplated. Both epplications asserted that the great amalgamation suggested would te to greater public advantage than present rail service afforded and ‘would maintain railroad competition in ’ » , ° » » ‘the East, between the great but equal- _sized systems contemplated. In addi- tion it was contended that greater financial stability and more economic usage of railroad investments would result.

FARMERS ASK CHANGES (Associated -Press.) Entering the home stretch of its ex- haustive hearings on tariff - revision, the House ways and means committee yesterday took up the free list, the last of the fifteen schedules in the law, and heard appeals for duties on an exten- sive list of farm products and manu- factured articles. A total of 288 witnesses, the largest number to appear on any one schedule since the hearings began last January 7, were listed for testimony on the free list, fercing the committee to adopt a five minute rule in order to conclude its consideration by the end of the week. The most sweeping proposal present- ed by more than a score of witnesses yesterday was that of Chester Gray, Washington representative of the American Farm Bureau Federation. He recommended tariffs on short and long staple cotton, hides, broom corn, bananas, copra, vegetable oils and seeds, and other commodities and asked that agricultural implements, fertilizers and grasses and fibers used in making binder twine be continued on the free list. Tells of Farm Interests, The interest of the federation in the free list, he said, was threefold, namely, to protect more adequately producers of certain farm crops which are now admitted free, to avoid undue increases on farm costs-should certain articles now free be made dutiable, and to increase the revenue to the Govern- ment. “Tariffs have receded to an inferior position in producing necessary revenue to operate the Federal Government,” Gray declared. “Agriculture looks upon tariffs as methods to protect, or in other cases merely to equalize the cost of produc- tion, which the farmers in the United States must meet as compared with those abroad. However, if tariffs can be made effective in securing revenue by transferring from the free list to the dutiable list of some commodities which are directly competitive to American farm crops, it is entirely justihable that use be made cf this facility.” The Farm Bureau head proposed a duty of 75 cents a bunch on banannas; $25 a ton on broom corn; from 6 cents to 25 cents a pound on cotton ranging from 1 and 1-16 of an inch in length and under to 15, of an inch and over; specific rates on cattle hides, «ip skins, and calf skuss with a minimum of 45 vegetable oils and seecs; 2 50 per cent ad valorem on manufac- tured horseradish. Cotton Industry Suffers. “Cotton is coming within recent years to suffer from foreign competi- tion,” Gray said, “and will suffer more in years to come unless duties are placed upon it.” 000,000 bunches annually, he sa‘d, add- ing that these corhpete directly with every frult and berry produced by the American farmer. “Farmers do not subscribe tc the ar- gument that a duty on hides will be of no benefit to them,” he continued. “The byproducts of the meat industry, such as hides, hair, horns an‘ tankage, constitute a very yaluable portion of the animal carcass. If these byproducts can be eold to better advantage com- petition of one sort or another will re- quire the purchasers of our meat an!- 'mals to reflect the advantage secured on the byproducts in the price given to the producer for his anima) on the hoof.” Copra importations, mostly from the Philippines, were listed by Gray at 451,000,000 pounds. The duty, he said, was necessary in order to make effect- ive the proposed duty on coconut oil. Other articles on which duties were proposed at the morning session were Sugar. machinery, cream separators ‘and Bibles Curtis Will Leave Senate on March 3 ‘Submits His Resignation to Kansas Governor Effec- tive That Day.

Senator Smoot, Utah, brought in the bill| from conference yesterday and sought to get action on it. Senator | Walsh at once interfered.

The White House is seeking to com- promise by a $2,427,000 addition to the dry iaw funds, Mut under the lash of the dry organizations the Senate and House leaders are afraid to accept it. The third filibuster threat bobbed up when Chairman Hale, of the naval af- fairs committee, tried to get the Sen- = to act upon the Navy appropriation dil. Senator Blaine (Republican), Wis- consin, blocked unanmious consent and in am exchange among senators, Mr. Glass declared that there would be a bill. Marriage of Heiress To ‘‘Adonis’”’?

RAIL AGENT SPEAKS AT CLUB'S BANQUET Transportation Men Hear of Safeguards Marking the President’s Travel. | ODELL SMITH GIVEN CUP Presidents of the United States often have three trains to take them to their dest:‘nations, George P. James, general passenger agent of the Atlantic Coast Line Rallroad, told 75 members and guests of the Washington Transporta- tion Clubs at its twenty-third annual banquet last night at the Raleigh Hotel. When a President travels, James said, a pilot train to clear the road ahead and a relief train which follows behind are often employed to insure the safe arrival of the Nation’s Executive. He explained that rolling stock and road- beds are put into first ckass condition before the President's train is allowed to operate. Optimism was the keynote of the meeting, and was expressed by former Representative Phillip Campbell, of Kansas; the Rev. James Shera Mont- gomery, chaplain of the Howe of Rep- resentatives, and other speakers. Odell Smith, a former president of the club, who acted as master of ceremonies, was presented with a cup from the club expressing its appreciation of hie loy- alty and work.

He charged his opponents with as- suming a “holier than thou” attitude toward the ‘great majority of the stock- | holders of the compary” and with in- itiating a “rule-or-ruin policy bent on) securing control of the company re- gardiess of consequences.” That anyone should still suppose there ig any “moral issue” involved in| the struggle between Rockefeller and himself for control of the company he characterized as a “naive idea’ and challenged the assumption “that divine guidance is vouchsafed to my oppon ente alone.” The statement of the Indiana com- pany’s chairman follows.close on the heels of a statement from his camp in which it was claimed that Mr. Stewart | now has in his possession “proxies of a ' great majority of the stockholders and is rapidly nearing a working majorit; of the stock.” It was also asserted that the Stewart “proxies include thousand ; of revocations of proxies originally giv- en Mr. Rockefeller, jr.” ) Lee and Aldrich Assailed. Today’s broadside is directed at a 72- page document issued February 10 by Winthrop W. Aldrich, brother-in-law and attorney for Mr. Rockefeller. It as- saile both Aldrich and Ivy Lee, New York press agent, and denounces the |72-page document as “sly,” “slander.” and a “deception.” “I can not believe that Mr. John D Rockefeller, jr., ever gave his approval to the publication of such slander,” Col. Stewart declared. “He sailed away to Egypt at the very beginning of this campaign antl pos- sibly the above named men (Aldrich and Lee) may conceive that any odium tactics pursued by others may be attributed to their over-zealousness and not re- flect on Mr. Rockefeller, jr. “I had hoped thiz contest would be kept on a high plane and have done So in fact rather than in promises. It was my unders*: nding that such, too was the hope and intention of Mr John D. Rockefeller, jr., for whom it was stated that he did intend to keep it on a high plane, that he published his letters of disapproval of me merely that the public might know his atti- tude, that he simply was offeripeg other stockholders the opportunity of joining him !f they saw fit and that he would not enter into any ‘unseemly scramble for proxies.’ | Scramble Begun, He Says, | “Then Ir. Rockefeller sailed Egypt. “Mr. Aldrich and Mr. Ivy Lee appar- ently did not understand the matter as for . ihe did, After saying he would embark on no ‘unseemly scramble for proxies if surely must be without his knowl- edge or consent that others in his nam: have embarked on a campaign of mis- representation; that they in a very wild scramble for proxies, indeed, have brought the whole force of the Rocke. feller millions to bear to intimidate and coerce wherever possible inddvid- uals and financial institutions and a!! of the companies which the Rockefel-— ler interests dominate, in order to de- | feat the present management of the company.” Husband Asks Absolute Divorce. Charging desertion and infidelity Charles D. Conway yesterday filed sult | for absolute divorce in the District Su- | preme Court against his wife, Mrs | Clarice G. Conway, of 1413 K street northwest. The parties were married | in June, 1919, and have one child. At- | torney Needham C. Turnage appeared | for the husband.

The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad on Tuesday requested of the Interstate Commerce Com- mission permission to effect the unification of 13,814 miles of railroads in the Eastern territory. The application asks that the com- mission find it to be in the public interest that such lines be merged and represents the independent attempt of the B. & O. to bring -order into the confused Eastern situation. The Baltimore & Ohio seeks the outright control of 9 roads and the joint control with the -New York Central, the Pennsylvania and the Chesapeake & Ohio of 6 others and agrees to the purchase or joint control of about 40 “short or weak”’ lines if the commission should go order. The plan it proposes contemplates the formation of four strong trunk lines, each *in a position to compete on an equitable basis with the other, business and to serve efficiently all centers to divide the rich Eastern sof population. ** Yesterday the Van Sweringen brothers, of «Cleveland, filed a similar petition with the ‘commission asking that it find that the -pub- Jie interest would allow the ‘grouping or unification” of the Chesapeake & Ohio, a main Van Sweringen holding, with the Erie, Nickel ‘Piate, Pere Marquette and Hocking Valley “systems, all also owned by the Cleveland ‘prothers, to which would be added six other ines, five of which are entirely independent. "The system that would thus be created would ‘operate 13,000 miles of trackage and would represent a capital investment of $2,500,000,- 000. The plan contemplates the creation of a second strong trunk line that would not con- “flict with the system outlined in the B. & O. ‘petition. | The interstate commerce act as amended by the transportation act of 1920 specified that, under the guidance of the Interstate Com- gynerce Commission, the railroads serving the ‘territory east of the Mississippi and north of the Ohio, with the exception of New England, should be consolidated into sounder, better balanced and more enduring systems. The commission has steadfastly refused to formu- Jate a complete plan of consolidation, insist- ing that the railroads themselves must work, out the details of the plan subject to its ap- proval. . Since 1924, conversations between the executives of the roads have been held from time to time but they have-ied to no tangible result. The petitions now filed by the B. & O. and the Van Sweringens unques- tionably mark the end of the friendly effort to effect the four-party division. The B. & O. probably is in the most disad- vantageous position of any of the Eastern lines. It has no entry of its own into New It has less than: one-half the mileage of the Pennsylvania. It is a powerful trunk line but with an extensive development only in the middle field. It is attenuated both East and West and in order to strengthen it as a competitive factor throughoait the trunk line territory it needs upbuilding at each of its extremities. These needs of the B. & O. were expressed by an expert employed by the commission following enactment of the transportation act to study and report on the problem. The plan worked out independently by the B. & O. seeks to pro- vide for its own needs and at the same time provide better public. service and make for more equal competition. The Van Sweringens have been trying for ten years, more or less, to link their extensive railroad properties into a trunk line. Several times they worked out consolidation plans only to have them turned down by the com- mission. They have, however, succeeded in consolidating the Pere Marquette with the Chesapeake & Ohio and building up the Nickel Pilate into an important system by adding to it ‘There is no doubt that opposition will develop against the B. & O. and Van Sweringen proposals. While they give every evidence of Raving been worked out in harmony, they both geek to cut into territory now controlled by the Pennsylvania and the New York Central. It was the opposition of the latter roads, and their dissatisfaction with the several schemes | ‘Presented, that led to failure of the four-party conferences. The Pennsylvania and the New York Centra! will bring every effort to bear in 70 turn down the proposals. Thus Pesponsibility of indicating a consolidation " may be put squarely up to the com- If the proposals “y no more than THE WASHINGTON.

The Dale-Lehlbach bill to liberalize the civil service retirement law at last has a chance of enactment. The blg appropriation bills are out of the way, and there is no pressing legis- lation that should interfere with this bill in tbe House. A meeting of the Republican steer- ing committee Wednesday resulted in an agree- ment that the bill shall come up for a vote the latter part of this week. The Senate has already passed the measure, and it is certain of passage in the House if it can be brought to a vote. | A petition by 281 members of the House demanding that they be allowed to keep their pledges. to constituents| by voting for the bill brought the matter to'a showdown. It was reported favorably by the civil service com- mittee almost a year ago, and the rules com- mittee has voted to allow it to come up on the floor. Since only a few representatives are actually opposed to it, there is no longer any excuse for delaying action. Now that the steering committee has finally consented to allow a vote, it is to be hoped that the measure will be followed through and passed before adjournment of the present ses- sion.. INJUSTICE TO WASHINGTON, With the agreement in conference that the $9,000,000 lump sum be retained in the Dis- trict appropriation bill, the Senate’s action in raising the sum set by the House to $10,000,- 000 becomes a mockery. It was not to have been expected, of course, that the Senate would have held out for the higher sum. The few days remaining of the session, added to the fact that the District appropriation measure is politically less important than a bill providing for a $500 postmastership in Podunk Cross- roads, is more than enough to preclude a legis- lative battle over its provisions. gesture the Senate made to the people of Washington, conceived in a sincere desire to see justice done and equity served, but it was no more than that. Washington now, as it has at the end of every session since the adoption of the lump sum principle, looks to the future. But with what hope? The Senate may be ready and willing to have the lump sum principle cast forever aside. The House is not willing, how- ever, and it is able to assert its will over that of the Senate. That Washington suffers as a result does not seem to worry the House; and the Senate, apparently, can only stand by in impotent sympathy, making gestures of jus- tice that come to naught. Nine million dollars does not represent the fair contribution of the Government to Wash- ington’s needs, but it does represent as much as the House is willing to give. There is only one thing that can be done: Washington has to “grin and bear it’’ for the time being, in antici- pation of the day when the fortunes of poli- tics will bring men to the House of Represen- tatives able and willing to look upon the de- velopment of the Capital City as the Nation’s privilege and duty. TAXING UNLAWFUL BUSINESS. The United States attorney at Detroit has filed suits against 218 bootleggers based on their failure to pay the Federal excise tax levied on distillers and brewers. Under a provision of the internal revenue act these defendants face payment of an excise tax of $1,000, fines of $1,000 for failure to pay the tax, court costs, and a year in prison. The courts have held that the tax on brew- ers and distillers is still valid in spite of the fact that the manufacture of Nquor is for- bidden by law. This is not the first time that the Government has taken advantage of this provision, but it is the first time it has been announced as the policy of Federal prosecutors to invoke the tax provision which was in effect before the eighteenth amend- ment was passed. The district attorney ex- pects to file approximately 1,000 suits of this kind, and hopes that the severity of the penal- ty will put the majority of Detroit bootleggers out of business. The Government filed suit some weeks ago to collect its share of the huge bank accounts deposited by bootleggers of Philadelphia un- der fictitious names. The Treasury also in- sists upon collecting income tax from boot- leggers. The courts have sustained the Treas- ury in the right to collect income tax from bootleggers, and presumably the new cam- paign in Detroit will be found to be valid. The theory of the law seems to be that the Government taxing -machinery is not con- cerned with the source of a man’s income. Thus, while the law-enforcing branch of the Government may prosecute bootleggers and smugglers, the tax-collecting branch will col- lect a tax on the illegitémate business if it can. SEE MEXICAN-AMERICAN WATERS. One of the most vital questions affecting the relations of the United States and Mexico is that of international streams. There are three rivers in which both of the countries have interests not yet determined by any agreement. For the sake of continued inter- national harmony and in the interest of stream development on the border, a treaty defining the rights of each country should be agreed to at the earliest possible date. Some time ago Congress created a com- mittee to deal with the Rio Grande River, and later the authority of that committee was extended to conduct: negotiations .with Mexico for a division of the waters of the Tia Juana and Colorado Rivers. Mexico appointed a similar committee, and the two bodies met in El Paso last March. Since facts were not available on which to work out any treaty, all that could be accomplished at the initial meeting was an agreement to study the streams and collect data for future use. Since that time engineers have been at work gather- ing information as to stream flow, irrigated areas, &c., to be laid before “*the committees at a second meeting this coming spring. Since each of the three rivers presents a different problem, the task of negotiating a treaty between the two countries settling the respective rights in each of them will: be un- usually difficult. One of the vital problems is whether the righfs of Mexico to water of the Colorado will be determined on a basis of low-water flow or the flow as it will be regulated by storage. Congress has passed | § It was a nice” the Black Canyon dam bill without having apy agreement with Mexico as to the rights of either nation in the stream. If the Colo- rado River Basin States adhere to this meas- ure, it is urgent that the question of Mexico's rights be settled before the Government actu- ally begins to store water at Black Canyon. An agreement is necessary, however, whether or not the United States builds the dam. Mexico has already begun construction of storage and diversion works estimated to cost $16,000,000 on the Tia Juana River. San Diego, Calif., is seeking to build a dam in the lower part of the river to store water sup- plied by the American tributaries. Irrigation enterprises are developing rapidly on both sides of the lower Rio Grande, and there will soon be demand for an international reservoig there. The interests of both countries de- mand that their respective rights be defined. It is to be hoped that the two committees will assemble for their coming meeting with all the information needed, and that they will be able to work out a satisfactory compact which will meet the approval of both govern- ments. WORK FOR THE JOBLESS. Unemployment has been the foremost sub- ject at two important gatherings this week. ‘At Miami, Fla., a conference of the American Federation of Labor has been studying plans for organizing a clearing house to facilitate the placement of men in accordance with the laws of supply and demand. In England the subject was injected into the festive atmos- phere of the British Industries Fair by the Prince of Wales. The speech of the Prince of Wales is full of significance, because it places before British manufacturers the-dire needs of 1,;400,000 who are out of work in England, at a time when the industrial chiefs are making their loudest boasts of prosperity. It is not sur- prising that conservatives were shocked at the prince’s remarke. The address was intended for British con- sumption only, but it has some application on this side of the Atlantic. The problem of unemployment is left largely for the workers themselves to struggle. with. <A few indus- tries, including the railroads, have given it serious consideration, but in a great number of commercial organizations it is still ignored. A community’s boasts of prosperity are chal- lenged by the presence of a large number of unemployed; therefore a taboo is placed on the subject. The pleas of jobless men must not be publicly recognized by business groups, because the reputation of the city in which they operate would suffer. One of the first steps toward amelioration of unemployment conditions is frank recog- nition of the problem by employers. The prosperity of America has been talked of un- til it has become proverbial; yet there are many unemployed in the country. It is time for organized business to cooperate in finding a solution. <A conference of industrial chiefs might go a long way toward this end, and would undoubtedly win the good will of the working class. That critic who says American writers lack imagination hasn’t seen the new seed cata- logues. It takes considerable self-respect for a scientist to think religion doomed because he doesn’t approve of it. French court, in awarding damages, fixes the cost of a common cold at 50 pounds ster- ling. In the United States you can get one for nothing. Bareback riding in the nude is advocated by a Viennese physician as a health move. So many modern Americans have never seen a horse that something of that sort ought to go well over here. Two aliens were caught crawling through a large stee] tube serving as a conduit for electric cables under the lower arch bridge over Niagara River. How come some Ameri- can, returning from Canada in happy mood, has not thought of that? THE MAN OF FIFTY By JOSEPH P. KANE, M. D., Member of the Gorgas Memorial Institute. _ Prof. Albert Einstein is fond of evolving j “Absolutely,’”’ is my answer to the many men of 50 who have rather forlornly asked me if it wasn’t too late for them to better themselves. No one need imitate the athlete and undergo a long, exacting and strenuous course of physical training, but every one may conserve or even enhance his body powers by suitable and con- stant body use. A famous doctor of Philadelphia, who specialized in the upbuilding of men, when over 60 years of age said of himself that by utilizing odd moments during the exigencies of an active medical practice he kept his circula- tion adjusted to all demands, some of them sudden and severe, kept his weight the same for over 40 years and above all maintained the elasticity of his muscles closely. to the form established during college days. He cited a case to show how one may set about to attain a fine physical condition: An active business man, age 52, was sound organically, but he was too large. He was fairly active, but was conscious of a number of minor derangements common to his age and method of living. He had digestive discom- forts, irregularities of sleep, also of heart action; he had an undue fatigability, a high susceptibijity to colds and stiffenings of the muscles miscalled rheumatism. This man determined to rid himself of all these. Thirteen years later, at the time of the telling of the story, he was a model of vigor, of endurance, of resistance to cold and disease, and capable of accomplishing four times as much as before. His muscles were responsive and controllable and as norma! as those of a man of 30. All this was brought about by gradually inuring the skin to exposure and to thorough frictions by hands and. brush; by exercising nearly nude, and by securing complete elas- ticity by simple, free movements; by stretch- ‘ing; by tensions in normal directions followed by full relaxations; by systematic deep breath- ing; and, when opportunity afforded, by long walks. Also, he modified his diet along milk and vegetable lines, with plenty of fruit and nuts. es . . . - —- - FEBRUARY 4B 1929; Everybody Happy! PRESS COMMENT. Discrimination.

By ROBERT QUILLEN HE eternal triangle that wrecks the greatest number of homes is not the one commonly mentioned in headlines. At its base are two women, but one is a mother and the other a wife. Statistics garnered by life insurance people show that more than 80 per cent of those who attain the age of 60 are dependent. Of these the greater number are women, probably because girls marry men older than themselves and outlive them. The majority of dependent old women who are supported by their offspring are cared for by a son, usually married, and thus complete the triangle in the role of mother-in-law. When two women derive their support from the same source they need conflict. them both. the wisdom of the serpent and the gentleness of the dove to avoid \ The son and husband loves wife and mother equally, though in a different way, and feels an equal urge and duty to cherish and protect His chief desire is that they shall love one another, as he loves them, and thus make his task pleasant in an atmosphere of peace and unselfish- ness. But women, however angelic, are competitors of women and can not share a man in amity. They will be jealous of one another’s influence—possibly, if they are spoiled by easy living, jealous of one anether’s good fortune. If they are good stock they will not fight openly, and for shame’s sake will appear to be friends when their man is about: but they will find some woman's way to hurt one another behind his back and he will be conscious of the enmity they try to conceal. The man will live on a sleeping voleano—helpless, conscious of doing his duty and yet tortured always by want of peace and dread of what may happen. Sometimes the man endures to the limit and then blows out his brains to get out of the mess. Hiow Many Customers? Topeka Daily Capitel: Prohibition Commissioner Doran recently estimated the number of active bootleggers in Washington at about 3,000.. Investi- gations being the fondest thing Con- explosion that wrecks the home. More frequently a chance remark serves as a coal of fire to cause an If there is an open quarrel the man must side with his old mother and submit to a divorce, or side with his wife and shorten the days of his mother. In either case his life is hurt beyond repair. gress is of, it might have an inquiry to find out how many active customers of bootleggers are members of Congress. This, then, is an appeal to a million or so ladies not fo muzzle the ox that treads out the corn—or, in more modern language not to keep a man in hot water just because he isn’t hard boiled Milk Containers. Houston Post-Dispatch: The plan for delivering milk in paper containers sounds extravagant. ‘Vhat is the house- (Copyright, 1929.) gling for profit in a professional way. The professional smugglers are mostly men,” says salting. “The women smug- keeper going to do with the containers when the milk has-been used? Throw them out. Now, our idea is to have the bottles made of the same material as cones for ice cream, and rendered impervious to moisture by being treat- ed with some digestible fat. Then the housewife can use the milk and eat the container, and there will be no waste. Hooch. St. Louis Post-Dispatch: The Missouri Supreme Court has decided that unless one sells “hooch, moonshine or corn whisky,” as expressly denominated by the State dry law, one can not be con- victed of a felony in the State courts for violating prohibition. That is, to sell Scotch or rye whisky remains only a misdemeanor, since the dry laws of 1923 do not mention them. If that is so, then the court must ultimately admit that there is no such thing as hooch in Missouri. According to the dictionary, hooch is a corruption of hoochinoo, a liquor made from sugar and fleur by the natives of Alaska. WOMEN SMUGGLERS. Philip Elting, customs collector of the Port of New York, will tell you that women are no less honest than men—but he also will tell you that women travelers do 90 per cent of the smuggling brought to light by his in- apectors. Why do they smuggle? “It’s the bar- gain hunting urge,” Mr. Elting explains in an interview in Smart Set. Madam who buys a frock represent- ing the last gasp of fashion in Paris is always firmly. convinced that she is getting it at less than she'd pay on Fifth avenue. But when she thinks of the 60 to 90 per cent customs duty, ihe bargain loses its charm. So rather than pay again she tries to smuggle it in. That is the collector's explanation. “Women are seldom guilty of smug- glers are just the ordinary run of tour- ists, most of them highly respectable and honest in their own lights. They simply can not be made to consider that smuggling is a crime.” They can’t the first time, perhaps. But one brush with the customs in- spectors can prove very convincing. The collector, for example, points out the instance of a returning tourist who fails to declare a $1,000 wardrobe pur- chased abroad. “For failure to declare the items, I must penalize the cost, $1,000, plus the duty of 50 per cent, making the for- feiture value $1,500. Addition of the personal penalty of a like amount, $1,500; will make a total of $3,000. The original cost of the wardrobe brings this up to $4,000. Considering that payment of the original duty of 8500 would have saved $2,500, we might say that honesty is the best bargain.” HAPPINESS. Most of us spend our time seeking happiness, since we learn at last that there is little point in seeking any- thing else, observes the Philadelphia Public Ledger. We differ as to where we shall find it, but too often post- pone it until a distant day when this Or that goal shall be reached or some milestone passed on the road of life. We look for it as a future reward or as a dividend on some future state of peace, prosperity or acquired posses- sion. Yet happiness, by testimony of all experience, can not be postponed. It must be found here and now, or 80 much of it is gone forever. We buy it on the, installment plan. The first payment is no more than a steadfast purpose and good intention, a resolu- tion to take from every day whatever good is in it. When such intention is ‘tuned to the life we must lead, happi- ness is delivered at the door. The future holds this hope—that the j time may come when the payments are done, and happiness is ours to keep. We shall have paid what is asked of us in work and enduring faith and courage,’ but the habit of happiness will remain. Unless, in- deed, we win it in this fashion, we have little chance of finding it. For it can not be bought or bargained for With all the wealth or wit or wisdom of the world. , it is a habit to be learned and a possession to be earned. BASKET BALL IN UTAH. State pride hag long been recognized as one of the dynamic forces in this country, says the New York Times. Claims of raising the fattest hogs have vied with claims of the tallest corn. A high official of one of the Middle Western Commonwealths boasted re- cently that his State had the hand- somest governor’s wife in the Union. A full-page advertisement in The Deseret News, of Salt Lake City, pro- claims Utah to excel in basket ball. The assertion is backed by impressive facts. To the outsider .the most interesting thing is not so much whether some other State may from time to time beat Utah’s crack team as it is the method in which basket ball has fil- tered throughout the State, and has been responsible, even in little towns of only 1,500 inhabitants, for the build- ing of gymnasiums. The Mutual Improvement Associa- tion, of Utah, alone has organized up- ward of 800 basket ball teams. In every portion of the State the game is being developed and is fulfilling its double purpose of affording diversion and of encouraging sportamanship and improving the physique of the young. Elsewhere, when attempts have be_. made to arouse interest in community sports, the tendency has often been to concentrate on a single team. Utah is apparently awake to the importance of interesting as many boys as possible in the game, rather than in developing a handful in each community who be- come specialists. OF THE I8™ AMENDMENT LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. How to Help Prohibition. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: It is proposed in Congress to make a dry law that is much more drastic than the . one now on the books. Drastic laws have never proved to be deterrent laws; they have always failed in prosecution. If the present law were modified in some important particulars it would be much more beneficial to law and order in the country, and prohibition would be nearer a success. Let Congress ad- dress itself to the enactmient of rea- sonable laws instead of trying to curry favor with fanatics. The worst enemies of prohibition are ita fanatical advo- cates, E. C. WOODBURY. Undermining Government. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Your article on “The Prohibition Law,” in issue Of’ February 18 was very favorabiy commented on by all the visitors from New York, Pennsylvania and New Jersey to whom it was shown. The gradual assumption by the Fed- eral Government of the States’ rights, guaranteed to them by the Constitu- tion and the centralization in Wash- ington of all the directing executives, tend to further weaken those republican principles on which the Constitution — was founded. :7 Under the United States form of gov- ernment, an unnecessary and bad law becomes a permanent fixture, as the necessary two-thirds vote can never be mustered. Politics may be depended on to prevent that. A copy of the late Oscar Underwood's “The Fading Republic of Our Kathers,” should be in every American family to- day. J. H. STEINER. Atlantic City, February 19. National Theater Players. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Why deprive the city of*such an enjoyable organization as the National Theater Players just because of a few dictating “music makers?’’ It is time that some one showed these men where they are standing in their own light. The public of this city doesn’t g9 to the theater mainly to hear the music. They go to see and hear a play. I think there are quite a few who will agree with me that the National Theater Players have become a part of Washington and.to deprive the city and the public of such a clean and wholesome group of entertainers is a great outrage. We don’t want music, we want the players. The theatrical business has been go- ing to the wall for the last few years. It is getting worse instead of better. It is my opinion that nothing outside of: “stock” will bring it back. Some of our younger generation have never seen a play. ROSEMARY EASTON, HOW MUCH EXERCISE? Many business men neglect to take as much physical exercise as their friends tell them they should, gays Forbes Magazine. Results of. an elaborate in- vestigation into the effects of athletics may comfort them. The National Col- legiate Athletic Association has con- ducted a three-year’s survey of the vital history of nearly 40,000 college gradu- ates of classes from 1870 to 1905, of nearly 5,000 college athletes and of 6,500 honor students during the same period, The mortality rate of all gradu- ates was 92.1 per cent of the national standard; the honor men showed a mortality rate of only 77.3 per cent, but the rate for the athletes was 91.5 per cent. The moral apparently is that men who attend very. assiduously to business are much more likely to live | long than are fellows who go in heavily for strenuous sports. | What would interest the majority of ® business men would be a comprehen- | sive, trustworthy. analysis of the com- | parative health and length of life of | golfers and nongolfers, since golf is the | main exercise indulged in by most | business men and the sole outdoor rec- reation of many. Will some body of nimble statisticians please get busy?

As announced by the committee, the parade follows in detail the plans made public from day to day and makes definite the formation of two grand divisions, military and civil, which is designed to pass in two hours and yet prove representative of many phases of American life and activity. : Five congressional secretaries, who at one time rode the Western ranges as cowboys, will be a feature of the pa- rade.

Mrs. Hammonds held the spotlight both in the committee testimony and the sen- ate court trial, where she was told of another unsuccessful attempt to dis- lodge her from the governor's office. Wallace said he saw Mrs. Hammonds walk along the ledge that encircles the capitol at the seeond floor, pry open a window screen and enter the office.

Coincidentally, chairman Nye issued ing the authority of the committee to inquire into the leases during the ap- proaching recess. “I undertake to state,” Robinson de- clared, “that the Government has been defrauded out of hundreds of mil- lions of dollars in the Salt Creek re- gion; that the rottenness can be uncov- ered and much of the property re- claimed.” Senator Robinson recommended that the lands committee employ as its counse] in the proposed renewed in- uiry Robert C.

The Indiana senator also made an attack upon Senator Walsh (Demo- crat), Montana, for his proposed cen- sure of the Interior and Justice De- partments in the handling of the Sin- clair contract for the Salt Creek rqy- alty oll. He declared that the Salt Creek leases were allowed under the senator from Montana.” Walsh Called “Mistaken.” The Walsh censure resolution was and he declared that the conclusions drawn by the Montanan from his 'n- quiry into the renewal of the Sinclair contract and the investigation by the Department of Justice leading to its cancellation were “thoroughly er- .roneous.” Robinsol declared Walsh must. have been that ‘more or less which the contract was renewed a year ago by former Secretary Work of the tion clause did not .conform of Justice last fall declared the con- tract void. 22,000 Die From Cold port today from a traveling secretary of the China International Famine Re- lief of Peking, saying that in five coun- tries of the province of Shensi 22,000 i'starved and the other an leasing act of 1920, “sponsored by the | Senator |, familiar with the option clause” under | Interior Department.

AMERICANS HOLD ALOOF Paris, Feb. 20 (A.P.).—The “second Dawes committee.” taking a leaf out of the records of the Paris Peace Confer- ence, has adopted a system of subcom- mittees to dig into the delicate ques- tions before it, over which the commit- tee’s work has beén somewhat bogged. The committee has not yet developed into anything like the famous “big four,” but at the rate of progress which has prevailed thus far further concen- tration may be necessary. The enlarged subcommittee of five which had been charged with finding some method of procedure to permit the committee to go ahead reported today. It required 45 minutes to pre- sent its findings, but they were evl- dently short of final, since the commit- tee extended its mission and adjourned until Friday to give it time to prepare a further report. Americans Are Absent. The American delegates remain among those absent on tkis subcom- justifies no conclusions other than that Germany and her creditors have natur- ally the most direct interest in the mat- ter and are properly left to thrash out among themselves questions that are nm@t of a strictly technical order. The American members. however, are con- stantly consulted by members of the subcommittee on important matters. There now are indications that the subcommittee is taking up vital ques- tions as well as purely matters of pro- cedure. This, it- was explained by @ spokesman for the experts, was quite natural since the question of procedure was intimately allied with vital ques- tions concerning the payment of rep- arations. Thus, it was learned, the subcom- mittee has concerned itself with the amounts of annunities and total rep- arations without, I wever, getting to the point of discussing actual figures. Sparring for Position. The full committee today discussed the capacity of Germany to transfer reparations payments in. honey and kind in addition to considering the subcommittee’s report. The najure of these discussions was kept largely se- cret, though it was stated that they tended toward ultimate discussion of the amounts of future annuities to be demanded from Germany. Local comment on the work of the committee is .o the effect that since Monday: there has been e@ gor’ deal of sparring for position between Germany and her reparations creditors from which the Americans have held aloof.

DISSOLUTION IS ORDERLY Madrid, Feb. 20 (A.P.).—Spain today carrien out dissolution of its Artillery Corps, apparently without disorder ex- cept at Segovia, where cadets made a demonstration. Troops throughout the kingdom were confined to their barracks in order that there might be no interference when officers of other branches relieved the artillery of thelr commands. The corps, dissatisfied because Gen. Primo de Rivera, an infantry officer, had displaced it from its previous high ranking position in the army, was held responsible for the reeent bloodless revolt at Ciudad Real and similar in- subordinations. King Alfonso by royal decree dissolved it and merged, ite units with the other forces. The war Ministry today ordered captains general throughout Spain to forward all petitions (presumably for restoration to active service) presented by heads and officers of the artillery who have been transferred to the re- serves or retired. An official statement tonight said that all communications received: by it indicated that dissolution of the corps was carried out satisfactorily. It said that the government felt con- strained to refuse to permit the press to comment or to publish the names of those affected because it was desir- able that the artillery corps be reborn without stigma. “The reestablishment of cordiality, confidence and combtadeship, rather than discipline, is confidently await- ed,” said the communique. “In a new spirit, those who fell into folly will be the first not to speak, or to per- mit their subordinates to speak, any- thing of past activities but will de- vote all their efforts to. practicing good military doctrine.” Free State’s Appeals Fail to Free Valera Dublin, Irish Free State, Feb. 20 (A.

The gesture seemed to rouse her to a practical view of the question. “What are you going to do about it, dearest?” “That’s what I want you to tell me.” This stiumlated her to action, as he had known it would. He was glad that he had consulted her; she had been full) of sympathy, and might now be of good counsel. How stupid it was ever to mistrust her! “Of course you must write to her father.” “Well—perhaps.

Ewing, through editorial and cartoon in the New Orleans States, of which he is publisher, assailed the governor, and | the New Orleans Item, whose policy | opposes Long’s, has joined in the fray. | Late today Gov, Long, from the execu- tive mansion in Baton Rouge, attacked both publications and their editors and closed with this challenge to gamblers: “Let somebody open up a gambling hell around New Orleans if he dares.” Gov. Long accused Ewing of defend- ing gamblers. Ewing countered with the assertion that his break with the governor resulted from his opposition to a proposed organization that would permit the governor to dominate pub- lic affairs of New Orleans and the State of Louisiana, and denied he had ever befriended the gambling interests. “The governor sidesteps and remains Silent to the charge that some of the gamblers were his financial angels dur- torially.

CLINTON A. NEYMAN. Boy Hurled Down 7 Floors by Blow Struck With Fist in Fight, He Is Knocked Into Elevator Shaft. New York, Feb. 20 (N.Y.W.N.S.).— Eighteen-year-old Joseph Sullivan, a messenger, and Elias Upbin, 22, a salesman, were having a hot argument at noon today in the hall outside the establishment of their employer, Mor- ris Elwood, coat manufacturer, on the thirteenth floor of No. 501 Seventh avenue. The argument progressed to blows. According to the police, Upbin’s fist knocked the younger lad against the door to the freight elevator shaft, which gave way. Sullivan fell down the shaft and his body landed on the freight elevator at the sixth floor. He was dead when the elevator operator dragged the body out. Upbin, meanwhile, had rushed back into the office, telling of the accident. Police were called and arrested him on a technical charge of homicide, He told them he narrowly escaped toppling down the shaft after Sullivan. Questioned later by Assistant District Attorney William P. Ryan, Upbin told the same story and showed teeth marks on his arm where he said Sul- livan had bitten him.

HEAVY EXPENSES CITED Lillian Gish and her sister, Mrs. Dor- othy Gish Rennie, who between them have drawn from the Nation's adoles- cent males a wealth of romantic sighs, have just drawn from Uncle Sama lit- tle note inscribed “please remit.” The two famous moving picture actresses have appealed from a ruling of the Interna] Revenue Bureau, which calls on them to pay a total of $61,- 513 in deficiency taxes. A claim for $54,341 has been entered against Lillian and Dorothy is asked to pay $7,172. The Board of Tax Appeals, to which the sisters have appealed, was informed that the claim against Lillian Gish is based chiefly on a contract which was to yiela| her $800,000 for two years’ work. She assigned the contract, call- ing for payment of $7,692 a week, to Players, Inc., for a “valuable considera- tion” not disclosed. This concern col- lected $223,073 on it during 1925. The actress argued that since the money was not paid to her she should not pay the income tax on it. The Internal Revenue Bureau held. however, that proceeds of the contract were hers and the fact that she assigned them to some one else did not affect her lia- bility. Dorothy’s case was similar. She declined to pay taxes on $43,500 which was payi during 1925 under a contract she had assigned. The high cost of living, as itemized by the sisters, was too high~in the bu- reau's opinion, and it reduced by about half the deductions both claimed on expenses they declared were necessary to their careers, wardrobe, cosmetics, photographs and other items For de- pression and upkeep of an automobile one of the women deducted $2,876.° Dorothy reported her expenses for two years at $29,651. Chicago Bandits Raid Night Club; Net $2,000 Chicago, Feb. 20 (U.P.).—Three ban- dits raided a night club here today, lined patrons against a wall and ecs- caped with jewelry and cash valued a nl Attempt to Return Stolen Girl Made, Police Believe | man; Doll in ee Couple in Car, With Little Child, Halt in Front of Doris Smith-Murphy’s Home; Frightened Off by Patrol- Auto Is Clew. San Francisco, Feb, 20 (A.P.).—Dis- | covery today of an abandoned auto- 'mobile iu which were found a rag do!l ‘and a quantity of candy scattered over ‘the floor: furnished the newest clew in ‘the five days’ search for 4-year-old Doris Smith-Murphy, Missing since Friday when she disappeared trom a public playground here. Investigation disclosed the machine had been aban- doned by a man and woman who had with them a little girl resembling the missing child. Police disclosed this afternoon that what may have been an attempt to re- turn little Doris to her parents was made last night. The supposed at- tempt was made by a Man and a woman who stopped an automobile before the dwelling of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Mur- phy, the child’s mother and step- father. A small girl resembling Doris sat between them, witnesses reported. Apparently frightened at the approach of policemen, the woman, about to leave the machine with the child, sat down in the car and slammed the door. The man then drove off followed by a police machine, but after a pursuit of sev- eral miles, the car escaped down a dark street. Continuing their checks of clews con- tributed by scores of persons, police were still searching parks and wooded hills and dragging reservoirs and a part of San Francisco Bay. Federal authorities joined the police in search today when postal inspectors examined a series of uotes received by the child’s parents. The notes, signed “K. K.” purported to have came from the child's abductors. They asserted the child was safe and added she would be returned March 5, provided the police ceased their efforts to find the writer. Police today concentrated their etf- forts on the child’s family, believing that if Doris’ real father, "Jlysses Ed- ward Smith, who is divorced from Mrs Helen Murphy, mother of the little gir! was found much of the mystery would x solved. Despite the threatening let- ters, police for hours last night sub- jected Doris’ stepfather to repeatec questions. Police have ascertained thit Smith, who is a sailor, is somewhere in the United States, but although aear'« every city in the Nation is publishing accounts of the kidnaping, there has been no word from hin. Crew’s Efficiency — Caused Tube Panic Motorman and Guard Did/ Duty, Although Result Was Subway Riot. New York, Feb. 20 (A.P.).—The New York State ,.Transit Commission re- ported today that it was the efficiency, rather than the inefficiency, of a mem- ber of the train crew that caused a loaded Hudson Tunnel train to be brought to a halt directly over a road- bed fire last night, causing panic among 900 commuters, scores of whom were in- jured, Just after the train left the Chris- topher street station to dip under the Hudson River to New Jersey. the com- mission found, Motorman Harry Van Zandt saw the fire ahead and put on full speed to pass over it quickly. All would have been well, but just as that moment E. Kusha, a guard. discovered a short circuit in ome of the cars and pulled the emergency cord. This brought the train to a grinding halt over the fire, of which Kusha knew nothing when he followed the correct emergency action to deal with a short circuit. It was the combination of fire and short circuit that was to blame for the result, it was decided, and not the ac- tion of either the motorman or guard.

Melton, Chicago research engineer, told the National Drainage Congress here tonight that with the completion | — of the $325,000,000 Federal flood +son- trol program, large :and areas in the Mississippi Valley that now are: un- profitably operated will be divided into -40-acre farms and intensively cultivated by an inrush of farmers. *Millions of acres now tariés over thousancs of years has made the region even more fertile than the Nile Valley he said. +“The sfississippi Valley is as far ahead of the Nile Valley as a 1,000- . cre plantation is a head of a home garden in productive capacity,” Mr. Melton declared. . The reclamation of Illinois swamp lands and the purification of the lesser streams of that State were described by W. G. Potter, State drainage engineer and waterways expert of Chitago. “Btate regulation of streams has freed them of noxious untreated sewage. eradicated mosquitoes and malaria, and turned marshes into valuable property,” he said. The Boulder ram on the Colorado River and Mississippi flood control were sn principal matters considered by the Dr. Elwood Mead, commissioner of the Bureau of Reclamation, Department of the Interior, referred to the Boulder dam as one of the monumental en- gineering projects of the age. “Noth- ing this Government has undertaken since the Panama Canal has 60 gripped the national imagination,” he said. ‘| The project will cost $165,000,000. . James R. Rhyne, Corning, Ark., civil dngineer. concurred in the opinion of E. FE. Blake, of Oklahonia City, that a @ystem of reservoirs on the upper reaches of the tributaries would be the _ moat effective means of flood contro! on ‘the Mississippi River.

Leads Equal Rights Fight Singer Heads Women’s Demonstration in Behalf of Sepa- rate Domicile and Compulsory Jury Service; Recalls Difficulties With U. S. Customs Court. Albany, N. Y., Feb. 20 (A.P.).—Equal rights was the battle-cry of a small army of women, led by Mme. Ganna felska, wife of Harold F. McCormick, of Chicago, in their descent today on a joint session of the senate and assem- bly judiciary committees hearing argu- ments on several bills affecting women Arguments for separate domicile, compulsory jury service for women and equal guardianship rights for both parents of minor children were pre- sented at the hearing. In voicing approval of the Pitcher- Jenks bill, which would establish a woman's right to a separate domicile for the purpose of voting and office- holding, Mme. Walska also asked for amendment of the bill so that it would include legacy rulings and taxation. She cited her recent difficulties with the United States Customs Court “to show how unjust is this point of law which forces a woman to reside legally wherever her husband happens to be.” When she arrived in New York re- cently the Customs Court’held her la- ble for certain effects on the ground that her husband's home was her own, although she maintained her separate home was in Paris. “Woman struggled for 75 years in New York State in order to secure the right to vote,” she said. “Are they going to have to struggle 75 more years to secure every special measure of equality?” She termed the present domicile rul- ing as “old-fashioned and unjust.” Mrs. Marcus M. Marks, of New York, argued to the same effect.

YOUR INCOME TAX | Increase in the value of property ac- cruing before March 1, 1913, is not tax- able, even though it was realized after that date. The reason is that the con- Stitutional amendment authorizing Congress to tax incomes of individuals became effective as of March 1, 1913. The revenue act of 1928 contains pro- visions for determining the gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of prop- erty acquired .by purchase before March 1, 1913. The basis provided is the cost of such property or the fair market value as of March 1, 1913, whicheverf is greater. For example, a taxpayer bought in 1910 property for which he paid $10,000. The value on March 1, 1913, was $12,000. He sold it in 1928 for $14,000. The March 1, 1913, value being greater than the cost of the property, the taxable gain is fig- ured on that basis and amounts to $2,000. A taxpayer bought in 1910 property for which he paid $5,000. Its value on March 1, 1913, was $5,500, and in 1928 he sold it for $4,000. In this example the taxpayer bases his loss on the March 1, ‘1913, value, which was greater than the cost, and the deducti- ble loss is $1,500. ~ ee COOOCO-1-100-— 454.83—-WEAF New York—660.

Coincident with the passage of a bill in the House authorizing its establish- ment. Secretary of War Davis has re- vealed plans for the erection of a new Army radio and communication center at Bolling Field, or some other mili- tary reservation in the vicinity of Washington. Secretary Davis said that informa- tion received from the Navy Depart- ment indicates that they would be unable to handle Army business in ad- dition to their own without the in- stallation of additional equipment, which in turn would require the en- largeinent of their present buildings and grounds at Arlington, costing more than that involved in erecting an Army radio building at an Army station, The War Department hookup con- trols 212 land stations similar to the control which the Navy exerts over “its stations and the consolidation of this control is not believed to be desirable. Another vital consideration is the fact that the Army net handles all messages and broadcasts in connection with the air activities of the War De- partment, it being possible to give them first priority in transmission, If all this should be placed at Arling- toh, the Navy could not give such priority. as they must give similar pri- ority to their broadcasts in the inter- ests of their flying activities, weather information, and slips at sea, and for issuing orders to their fleets at stated hours. According to Secretary Davis, it will be necessary in the near future to make available nine radio transmitters for use by the War Department radio net due to the steady and rapid increase of traffic for all Government branches, bureaus, and departments being hand- led by this net. Sufficient space at Arlington is not available for installing the War Department radio transmitters now in operation. High-powered, high- frequency amplifiers are essential for use with the present transmitters, and this equipment requires much space in order to insure efficient operation and safety of personnel. “It is essential that the Signal Corps train personnel in the handling of high-powered radio transmitters and amplification equipment,” Secretary Davis said, recommenuing the project to Representative La Guardia, of Nev York. “This valuable purpose would be lost in the event that the War Depart- ment equipment of this magnitude and importance was turned over to the Navy. There would be divided respon- sibility which would result in loss of efficiency. “At the present time the War Depart- ment has one high-frequency transmit* ter located at the Washington Navy Yard. The operation of this trangmit- ter is far from being efficient, and has ®équired during the last two months more care than three transmitters lo- eated at Fort Myer under direct control of the War Department.” It would not be proper, in the opinion of Secretary Davis, to group all Government transmitters in one loca- tion. Any operating difficulty, such as loss of power and storms, would throw the Army and Navy nets out of opera- tion. ‘The Navy Department has appre- clated this and at the present time has transmitters located at Annapolis, navy yard in Washington and Arlington. The initial appropriation for the Army radio center calls for $30,000. Ac- cording to Secretary Davis the radio communication system now existing tramsmits during the dull season ap- proximately 500 to 600 messages daily and during the rush times over 1,000 messages daily for 49 bureaus, branches, or departments of the Government, in- cluding the Navy Department. This transmission effected a net sav- ing of $263,000 during the last year, ERPRETS the MODE: » “1 Love You,” is merely a black moire dress, not a confes- Bernard et Cie., Paris). ———i, - a -_ a - Zy \ ae” =49 SAG oo = oy a Te oe - - —_— —_— ee at , oo * Ce. : to illustrate for you today.

This is because of the wide use of lead and not because of the unusual toxicity of the material. In fact, it is not vastly more poisonous than iron and copper, both normal constituents of the body, and it is far leas poisonous than arsenic and mercury. A man may have lead in his bones and a lead line on his gums, proving the presence of lead in his tissues, and still be free from symptoms of lead pol- soning. It is lead in solution in his blood, and only that, which counts. But if lead is not very poisonous its use is very poisonous; its use is wide- spread, and pretty much every person is exposed to lead poisoning at some time or other in his life. While the old-fashioned lead poisoning of 40 years ago is very rarely encountered the prob- ability is that many cases of mild lead poisoning would be found if the symp- toms were better known. !'HOW TO KEEP WELL By DR. W. 4s “4 A, EVANS: much from other forms of colic. Lead line in the gum is not easily recognized if the mouth is very dirty. When it is recognized it merely means that the tissues contain lead. It does not mean that lead poisoning exists or that. lead absorption is going on. The exposure may have been a thing of the past. Other symptoms are tremor of the hands, tongue, eyelids; pallor; muscle cramps; vertigo; neuritis; wrist drop; atrophy of the optic nerve; insomnia; nervous excitability; delirium and hal- lucination; loss of memory; pains in joints. Nor are these symptoms de- pendable. They are caused by other the Declarer, playing a contract. West led the East played the King South wus No Trump Jack of Spades. led from Ace-Jack-Ten. (South was marked with the Queen by West’s 'ead of the Jack); if South held Ace as well as Queen, the play of East’s King disorders as well as by lead poisoning. Therefore, Dr. Mayers says, the final | decision as to lerd poisoning must rest | on examination of the urine and of the blood. The urine is examined for small quantities of lead by a special method devised by Fairhall. The blood is ex- amined, not for lead, but for certain changes produced by this metal. Of| veel de the urinanalysis is more de-| ndable. a i. | WOMAN’S BLOOD PRESSURF. Mrs. I. D. H. writes: 1. What would | be considered normal blood pressure in | @® woman 48 years old? 2.

He had been outgeneraled by West’s duck on the first Club trick. Where was Declarer’s mistake? THE ERROR, Declarer should have established Dummy’s Clubs, without trying a Club finesse, before Dummy lost its Ace of Hearts reentry. South should have led the Ace and Queen of Clubs to tricks 2 and 3., and the Eight to trick 4 if West ducked trick 3 (Declarer’s purpose will be served equally well if West plays King); then, no matter what West leads, North eventually gets in with the Heart Ace and Declarer must take two Spades, two Hearts, four Clubs and at least one Diamond— enough for game. | king the deuce; South then led the Ace | guarded King in the East hand.

A As it was, i West had won the first Club trick, the misplay would not have been expen- sive; but West, with the King and two other Clubs, would not establish Dum- my’s Clubs by winning the first trick, nor would East be foolish enough to cover Dummy’s Jack if he held King and two others, The play at tricks 2 and 3 would gain one trick if the adverse King were singly guarded in the East hand; but game should not be risked for a chance to make an immaterial] ten points.

About a score of issues rose 5 to 15 points, with steel, merchandising, automotive and ceronautical issues making conspicuous progress. Call money renewed at 61, per cent, an contrast to 7 yesterday, but got no lower than 6. Bankers see little pros- pect of appreciable improvement in credit rates for several weeks, as sea- sonal expansion of commercial require- ments is due in March. The Federal! Reserve Board, in keeping with its pol- icy of reducing credit available for the wtock market, announced that it would approve increases in the bankers’ ac- ceptance buying rates at all reserve banks to conform with the recent in- creases at New York. This would tend to withdraw funds from New York. Wall street looks for another sub- stantial drop in Federal Reserve brokers’ loans when the weekly announcement is made tomorrow afternoon, but the Opinion prevails that the Reserve Board Will be satisfied with no less than a re- duction of about $500,000,000. The re- duction last week was but $101,000,000, and it is expected that three or four tveeks at least will be required to bring about the desired reduction. Wright Aero Cuts Melon. , The day's news included a 100 per cent stock dividend by Wright Aero; the filling of the Van §weringens’ Eastern railWay consolidation plan, which con- formed with the Baltimore & Ohio plan. filed yesterday; announcement of fur- ther improvement in freight car load- ings in the week ended February 9, and more favorable weekly steel trade re- views. Iron Age said steel production this month would probably equal if not exceed that of January. American metal market pointed gut that production is at 90 per cent of capacity and that the 40 per cent of idle capacity is largely in Bessemer plants .and in plants remote from the area of heaviest pressure for deliveries. The New York Stock Exchange re- ported that total member loans on Feb- puary 1 amounted to 9.48 per cent of the market value of al] listed stocks, compared with 9.54 on January}. The total value of listed stocks increased | $3,588,344,112 to $71,060,397,412, but this was due to increased .listings, as the average market value of shares de- greased $1.13 to $87.96. Governors of tye exchange voted to close on Satur- » after Washington's birthday, right Aero mounted 15 points 280, in @ntrast to its. high record 299. Express shares also surged ahead, ams and American selling up about 6 points each. ational Silver sold close to ite high, mounting more than 14 points. Seasies Radio, a new- comer to this board, jumped 15 points to a new high at 109. ie Bethlehem at New High. Bethlehem Stee] adyanced more than + points to a new high at 95%, and U, S, Steel touched 177 in a like gain. Packard Motors mounted 10 points on apnouncement of its production pro- gram for its new Deisel air-cooled air- plane motor. Nash, Chrysler and Stude- baker also were in demand. Abraham & Straus led the merchan- dising group with a 12% point jump, while Grand Stores, Interstate Depart- ment Stores and Filene’s made sub- stantial] advances.

HIGH FLYING HIGH JINKS HEIGH HO! “By WESTBROOK PEGLER™ Special to The Washington Post. EW YORK, Feb. 20.—Bert Acosta, the noted aviator, who chauf- feured Commander Byrd’s ma- chine part of the way to France, has applied for reinstatement as. a pilot. having been set on the ground and fined a total of $1,000 last year for stunting over an airport in Chicago. If, the Secretary of Commerce for Aeronautics were to consult the people who sit in the open-air stadiums watching football! and baseball games and prize fights, Mr. Acosta might find himself earthbound for life. There is a growing tendency among the custom- ers to take the intrepidity of intrepid birdmen for granted and it appears that Mr. Acosta forgot himself noi once but twice. However, the regulations make no provision for a popular vote on sucn. matters, so it seems unlikely that any- thing will be done to deter aviators of the type known as dashing from in- cluding disinterested persons in their perilg until some flying barge scrapes ar acre of citizens off the benches, then blows up and sets fire to a wood- en stadium with cramped exits, mak- ing a great story. with art, for the Sunday papers, and a follow-up story for Monday beginning, “Six investiga- tions are under way.” Flier Could Explain to Crowd lf He Lives After Crash. I do not know the exact details of Mr. Acosta’s misconduct, but it sharp- ly reminds me that for several years now, in covering open-air events which draw large crowds into dense congestion, I have mentally formulated bulletins for the wire stating that-a 16t of spectators have just paid an ex- travagant price for some flier’s bra- vado, It is a morbid forethought, out the sight of a creaking crate, stuck together with court-plaster and string and motorized with the works of a cuckoo clock stalling and rolling or proceeding on a straight course, just over a crowd, is not the stuff that optimism thrives on. Several machines have fallen close outside public stadiums while contests were under way and the boys will fall closer and closer until one of them scores a bull’s-eye after which he will explain, if he lives, as he probably will, that everything would have been all right if\he hadn’t slipped. Police ‘Grant Idiotic [mmunity To Bold, Brave Aviators. Local police seem to have neither the jurisdiction, the facilities, nor the de- termination to proceed against ‘the boys. In fact, they appear to regard them as persons of special privilege, en- titled to one crash in the midst of a crowd on the same theory which pre- sumes the vicious police dog to be a domestic pet until he has chewed his first victim. 2 You may feel reasonably certain that if you were to sight a machine gun over Palmer Stadium at Princeton on the day of a Yale game and fire over the heads ‘of the crowd the State police would arrest you on some technicality for fear that there might be a few shots in a thousand rounds which might injure some of the spectators. But during the Yale game at Princeton last fall a yellow aeroplane clattered back and forth for almost two hours, flying low all the time and skimming over one corner so closely that the people there could have grabbed it by the tail. Landing on President's Lap Would Make Great Story. There was a plane advertising a mov- ing picture which swooped in from Illinois during the world series games in St.| Louis two years ago and diverted the interest of the bleacher customers from the first few innings of the bail games by stalling about 150 feet over their heads, then rising at the critical instant and stalling again. In Baltimore, on one of the Navy's large football occasions, a big, wobbiv kite which looked something like a cellar door being flipped about in a cclone, came over the Municipal Stadium to announce the _ superior quality of some coal dealer’s coal. It chanced that Mr. Coolidge was sitting CONTINUED ON PAGE 17, COLUMN 1. Joe Dundee to Fight Hood in London Ring Newark, N.

Conquers Annapolis Quintet Offensive Near End Clinches Game by 29-21 Score. Stave Off Challenge as McCarthy and Dutton Star. Special to The Washington Post. A NNAPOLIS, Md., Feb. 20.—Spurred on by the frenzied cheering of a large band of Hilltop students, the Georgetown University basketeers, led by the clever Don Dutton, respond- ed with a decisive 29-to-21 defeat of the Navy quintet here today in a hard- fought struggle. Thus Georgetown be- came the only other opponent besides Pennsylvania ever to have beaten the Tars two years running on the local fioor. Dutton and the entire Georgetown array uncorked a dazzling brand of basket ball im the final ten minutes of the second half to draw away to victory when the Middies threatened to take the lead. During. the last five minutes following the rally that shot them out front by six points, Coach Eimer Ripley’s players were content to pass the ball around, seeking open- Ings in the five. man Navy defense. McCarthy Holds Pair of Navy’s Best Shooters Scoreless. Georgetown showed the winning punch at the crucial moment. Navy had crept up to a 17-18 count after trailing at intermission by 13-18. Baer, center, pulled the Tars danger- ously close to the Hoyas by dribbling over half the length of the floor for a field goal from under and adding a pair of free tosses awarded on a foul as he de hed under the loop in another at- tempt for a goal. McCarthy the Georgetown guard who performed the notable feat of holding scoreless two of Navy’s best shots—Allen and Dennett—came to Georgetown’s rescue at this point with tw: fielders in rapid succession by dig- | ging the ball out of hot scrimmages un- der his basket. Dunn followed with a one-pointer and a moment later Dut- ton sank the sphere from midcourt for the most sensational shot of the gamé: ‘CATHOLIC U.

Bowstrom added two fouls and a goal to Navy's total before the last whistle. d Bowstrom Only Navy Player Able To Penetrate G. U. Defense. Bowstrom, Navy’s only player who managed to penetrate the Hoyas’ de- fense with any degree of consistency, put the home team ahead at the open- ing with a long toss. Dutton, who proved to be one of the most deadly foes ever seen on the Naval Academy floor, soon swung into action and rung up an 8-to-3 advantage for the visitors by dribbling through to the basket, despite a tight Navy defense for easy shots Dutton completely outplayed Bauer and Bernet, whom the Navy coach as- Signed to the task of stopping him. Several times the G. U. center whirled around these men to reach the rim. Bowstrom and Farrin engineered a long-range attack, which culminated in Navy taking the lead at 11 to 10. Again, however, the Tars’ lead was} short lived, as Dunn placed George- town in the van, never to be headed, with a field goa] that followed Dutton’s pass. Georgetown. Shea. if.....

ETROIT, Feb. 20 (A.P.). — Percy Williams, Canada’s school boy sprinter, added another victory to his collection of triumphs here to- night and equaled at 24-year-old world record. The slight Canadian was forced to the limit to defeat Eddie Tolan, negro sprinter from the University of Michigan, in the 40-yard dash, but turned the stretch in 4 2-5 seconds to tie the mark set by William D. Eaton at Boston in 1905. The other two members of the wan- dering track triumvirate, Edvin Wide, of Sweden, and Paavo Nurmi, did what 4,500 persons who came to Olympia Arena expected, but their victories lacked the sparkle of Williams’ per- formance. Wide made a show of a field of dis- tance runners in a two-mile handicap race, winning in 9:20 3-5. It took him four laps to catch the last of his op- ponents and from there on to the fin- ish it was just a question of how big a lead he would accumulate. He was 75 yards in front at the finish and did not sprint. Nurmi .Wins as He Pleases, Sprinting for Audience. Nurmi’s performance in a one-and- one-half-mile event was similar to Wide’s. Paavo carried his watch, but his competition was not serious enough to cause him to consult it. He Qasted no time in whittling down the handi- cap leads of a dozen entrants and finished about a quarter of a lap out in front. He even obliged the cheering crowd by putting on a mild sprint. His time was 6:55 2-5. Liska, Still Unsigned, Allowed to Join Nats Word was received last night from President Clark Griffith, at Tampa, that permission has been granted Pitcher Ad Liska to report at thespring training camp for the first workout, scheduled Monday morning. Liska. has not yet accepted terms for the coming season, but the fact that the Nat owner is letting him come to the Florida headquarters means that the salary differences between the player and club are not large and that Griffith is satisfied that ,a compromise will be reached as soon as the two get together.

Although Paavo has beaten the Swede ten times out of the twelve they have met, he @pparently has decided that in view of his defeat at the hands of Ray Conger at a mile in the Millrose games he is not ready for a race with so formidable a 2-miler as the running schoolmaster from Sweden. He had filed his entry for both events. Sprint Stars to Meet for 60-Yard Championship. In the steeplechase no particularly keen Opposition is in sight unless Willie Ritola should decide to compete.

Result to Give Good Line on Bostonian One-Sided Victory for Spaniard Will Les- sen Prestige. Leonard Hopes Result Is Decisive, One Way or the Other. By BENNY LEONARD (Retired Lightweight Champion). EW YORK, Feb. 20 (N.Y.W.NS.). . The battle between Paulino Uzcudun and K. O. Christner in Madison Square Garden Friday night ought to serve to give us a pretty fair line on the Jack Sharkey of today Sharkey has had a-couple of contests that might be regarded somewhat in the light of tune-ups for his coming bout with young Stribling, but in neither of these was it definitely proven whether the Boston gob is as good as _ he used to be, better than he was or worse than he ever has. been. The reason for this is that we don’t know just how good his opposition was He failed to stop either of his oppo- nents. Sharkey explained—or at least one of his official mouthpieces explain- ed—that the gob wanted to get all the benefit he could out of these “work- outs,” and for that reason let them go the limit. ‘Now. here’s the way I look at it: If Christner can beat Paulino, especially if he can give him a good shellacking or Eneck him out, then he’s going to make Sharkey great, because Sharkey beat Christner. But if Paulino applies the brush to Mr. Christner, it’s not go- ing to enhance the outlook greatly for the big boy from Boston. Past Performances of Fighters Are Sometimes Deceiving. I know as well as anybody that you can’t always draw a line on fighter “A” through his showing with fighter “B,” as compared with the chowing of Gghter ‘C” against the same fighter “B.” It's a well known ring tradition that Terry McGovern could whale the tar out of a lot of fellows that could beat Young Corbett in his latter days, but Terry never could whip Corbett, even after the Denver man grew fat and logy. But in the minds of the fans a de- feat of Christener by Paulino would be bound to have its reaction And that reaction would not be particularly complimentary to Sharkey’s present ability. It is most difficult for the ordinary or casual observer to gauge eccurately the condition and ability of @ star fighte: while he is training in the gymnasium, especially nowadays, when the training of such star is more Or less a show, even admissions being | B charged in most cases. . Fighter Has Ali the Best of It In Gymnasium Battles. I’ve talked about this before, ex- Plaining that in the gym the fighter mot only can set his own pace, easing wp and “coasting” when he feels like the least bit tired, but he also has sparring partners who are enlent with him. That is, in most cases. Although this thing between Paulino and. Christner will give us a line of the Gharkey of today, it ought to. be an entirely different contest from the one waged between Sharkey and Christner. I was in Miami at the time this battle was fought, and consequently missed the chance to see this fellow Christner in action, but from what I have read, heard and been told of him, he’s Just the type of fighter to put up a teriffic slugging bee with the ue. Paulino has quite a respect- able left hook, especially to the body, while Christner’s right hand has been extolled by all who have seen it in action. “Bo when these two fellows, each with @ style made to order for the other, get to slamming those lefts and rights at each other either something will have Lo Grop or else these guys ain't human.” Christner Has Slight Cold in Eye and Shuns Gloves. Christner got into town yesterday, in company with his manager, Tommy Lennon, but he didn’t do any training. He had contracted a light cold in his eye, he said. “rm all set and could really go inte the ring at once,” said* O., “but what's the use of taking a chance of hurting the eye when it isn’t neces- sery?” Paulino, training in Summit, N. J., lookg to be rounding into excellent form. Paulino never was much of a picture to look at in action in the g?mnasium, But he’s an effective worke> when he gets in there and he keeps things humming. Leonard Hopes Some One Will Win by Decisive Margin. Then there’s the old bugaboo of the Godfrey damage. Paulino had a hard ten-round battle with Godfrey on the coast. Bome tell me that they thougnt it ought to havé been a draw. Why, Risko won from Godfrey, they said, and yet Johnny hasn't been as good since he got that decision over Godfrey. I only hope that it cnds with a deci- give victory one waytor the other. We sieed some new blood emong the heavy- weights, and Christney is by way of be- ing “new blopd.” The same old faces ai] the time are great if they're win- ning. But when they're neither win- ning or losing—well, you can’t stand still. (Copyright. 1929, by the Press Publishing Comms BARBER MUMVIMNELS suop Riccs Bk. Bidg.. 14th & Park rd.

ELDON MONSON, . 200 - pound football tackle, yesterday re- turned from a year’s inactivity in sports to plug a hole in the George- town University Boxing Team which is due to clash with the strong New York University outfit tomorrow night in Ryan Gymnasium. Monson, a senior in the Foreign Service School, offered his -ervices as @ heavyweight to oppose the star of the Violet Team, Sargisson, and Coach Jim McNamara literally jumped at him with arms open. The blond giant from Salt Lake City, who used to mow them down in the line for the Blue and Gray, will sup- plant Fred Schaffley, whose injured hand will not permit him to box for another) week. Though not exactly a novice, Monson will trade wallops with Sargisson, who is hailed as the next intercollegiate heavyweight champion, with not a great deal of experience behind him. But if his indominitable spirit plus natural speed and stamina are an, alds to a college boxer, his friends assert Mon- son will give the Violet luminary plenty of trouble, to say the least. Fish Reports Injured Hand Healed And Will Get Back Into Line-Up. An ankle injury kept Monson off the gridiron last fall after he had played a noteworthy game at tackle for two seasons, Coach McNamara wore a grin from ear to ear yesterday, for besides the volunteering done by Monson, Charley Fish, crack welterweight, reported his injured left hand ready to stand the test of a fight, and his presence in the Hilltop line-up increases mightily Georgetown’s chances of heaving out the losing jinx Friday night. Amerigo ‘“Firpo” Anselmo, light heavyweight, will join the “maiden” _ranks with Monson against N. Y. U. “Though it will be his initial fight of the season, he should show to good advan- tage, according to Coach McNamara.

E sometimes hear the saying ‘‘as sy hard as rock.” That is a good saying when we think of such ‘rock as granite, but many other frocks not very hard. trips through the country 1! have - come upon cliffs of sandstone, and have iat found that in certain cases the stone Was not hard but rather soft. It would crumble when I scratched it! Have Famous “rocking stone” of Argentina. you ever tried that? If not, make the test yourself. You will find that some gandstone is har& but that in other eases it will not bear the pressure of jour fingers, You will be able to pinch t until it ts sand. * # Many kinds of rock will break tf you them light blows with a hammer, rock known as “shale” is some- easy to break. Shale is composed hardened mud. Scientists say that rivers millions of years ago.. The mud dried and other layers of sand or mud pressed down from above. The drying ana the pressure made the rock. Clay which hardens in the ground forms rock of different kinds, some- times hard, sometimes soft to the touch . The lava of volcanoes hardens into rock. One sort of rock which the lava nakes is black and glassy, and is known 2s obsidian. I saw an obsidian cliff while in Yellowstone Park. While on the subject of rocks, l want to tell you about the famed “rocking stones.” These stones often welgh many tons; but they are 60 finely balanced that they can be tipped by a man or even by the wind. A widely known rocking stone exists in southern Argentina. It is believed to weigh more than 700 tons. People sometimes go near it and place nuts under it so that they may be cracked by the stone when it rocks. The reason the rocking stones do not slide away when they are tilted is that tom. Perhaps you have seen the tricky sait shakers which you can tilt, but which will come back straight again. The reason they come back to a straight position is that they have weights at the bottom. a Tomorrow—The Leaning Tower of Pisa. layers of mud were formed by ~ Wives of Tomorrow By FRANCES M’DONALD=———— (Copyright, 1929.) “An Indiscretion.” © > HAT is a husband for?

I have never looked if a man since I got married until now. » Well, we met outside the house, no one knows but him. I knew I was in wrong, and knew just what he thought, but I never ire-med he woulc Qe the sort to threaten. But he did. ie says he will call niy husband on the and “drop a few hints to his vantage.” He sits opposite me at ble and just stares and smiles till am nearly disgraced, I would rather than appeal to my husband, after Wawling him out for just dancing with a gir) too «ften. I jeel as if dying is | too good for me, to put myself in such a position. I had hinted to my hus- band in our quarrel that I would not be here when he came buck. Now I feel that will turn out true. But even .f J left, this man would still do as he threatens. He has a pal in the house and I feel he will tell him all about our affair. What can I do? ELLEN. Listen, Ellen dear, no real man pays the least attention to anything a wom- an-threatener may say. The very fact that he has become unpleasant is proof to the husband that the girl stood her ground! Never forget that. And never forget that all he-men see red when one of the under-nourished (yes, I'll wager he its under-nourished) narrow- chested weaklings is caught in the act of annoying a woman. Men recognize them on sight. So in your: case the man has everything to fear and you have nothing. At most you have acted very foolishly, while angry at your hus- band, to go out with another man. You do not need to be told that it was wrong to do so without your husband's consent. But under the circumstances of the quarrel and your eagerhess for “reprisal” even that is explained if not excused. : So come down to earth Ellen. Eat your dinner. Write your hubby that you have been trying to get even by going out with the best the boarding house didn’t pay. That’s all there to tell. And if hubby can't stand up under that all I can say is that I would ‘hate to have him for a husband. JUST FOLKS = By EDGAR A.

SMOOT DECLARES AUTO | FUMES ARE OBNOXIOUS ig Five Proposed Changes Are | Turned Down; Group Will | Hold Session Today. | The Zoning Commission yosterder| postponed for consideration at the | next public hearing a proposal to re- vone' from residential to commercial the Connecticut avenue residence, of Senator Reed Smoot. Smoot told the commission at the public hearing held in the board room in the District Building that he had been compelled to move from his Con- necticut avenue house because of the fumes of automobile exhausts which “nearly suffocated” him whenever he opened. his windows. “The change was objected to by Guy H. Johnson, an attorney, who said that property owners had not been given adequate notice and that the petition for the change could not legally be considered by the commission because it had not been signed by a sufficient number of owners. Says Smoot Inconsistent. John J. Hamilton, 2611 Woodley Place northwest, opposed the change, declaring that Smoot was inconsistent and was actuated by purely selfish motives. Last year, Hamilton said. Smoot had opposed erection of an apartment house in the neighborhood of his house,. 2521 Connecticut avenue, but now he wanted his house zoned commercial because he has bought another residence. The commission turned down the first five of the proposed fifteen changes, postponed until the next hearing the Smoot proposal and a proposal to change to first commer- cia] the zoning of a triangle bounded ‘by: Connecticut avenue, Calvert and Twenty-fourth streets northwest. Several Changes Approved. Changes approved by the commission included: From _ residential, 60-foot height limit, C area, to first commer- cial, 60 foot, C area, a part of a lot on ‘ the east side of New Hampshire ave- nue, between Princeton place and Geor- gia avenue; from residential 40 foot, A restricted, to residential, 40-foot, a *\, gemirestricted, two interior lots facing “oy Thirty-ninth street northwest in equares 1813 and 1814; the height limit for the Mount Carmél Retreat House, bounded by Second, Third and T streets northeast, was changed from 40 to 60 feet, but it was left B area in- THE WASHINGTON POST: THURSDAY, FEBRUARY HELD IN $7,500 EMBEZZLEMENT ~ ' Ennis Monroe Nichols leaving police headquarters yesterday after he had been arrested.

Dur- | | ing the seance, she said, she distinctly heard voices of spirits communicated with through Carroll. She denied that she was a medium, but admitted ar- ranging the seance. Carroll testified he came to be an associate minister of the church only after qualifying before a skeptical au- dience and a board of the church. The qualification conditions, he said, con- sisted of the ability to see spirits, to hear voice and describe accurately the conditions attending a spirit to the audience. He claimed to be gifted with foresight, “but I do not advertise nor have I ever advertised that I can foresee.” He explained his gift of fore- sight came just as talent of any kind came to an individual. Carroll said he was asked Fy cne of the poliee whether or not it would rain on March 4, but deciined to answer.
