Donovan Remains on Outside; Offered Philippines Post. PROMINENT DRY MAN TO SUCCEED SARGENT Justice Stone and Solicitor Gen. Mitchell Linked. With Portfolio. By CARLISLE BARGERON. A continuation of conferences char- acterized the relations yesterday of President-elect Hoover and Col. Will- fam J. Donovan, over whom there has been more Cabinet speculation than any other one man, especially because of the position he occupied in the cam- paign. At the end of the day the aggressive colonel, known in his home town and to thousands of World War veterans as “Wild Bill,” was not in the Cabinet. At his command, on the other hand, was the governor generalship of the Philippines, a post to which under pother ci.cumstances he might readily aspire. Mr. Hoover’s Secretary of State comes from that post. It was William Howard Taft’s stepping stone to the Presidency. But there is every reason to believe that Donovan will not accept it. His friends say it is nothing short of the Cabinet for him. The Attorney Generalship is out of the question. The Cabinet as a whole was a shut door yesterday, but the colonel is to have another conference with Mr. Hoover today. His Stay Prolonged. He -was called here from his Depart- ment of Justice work in New Mexico by Mr. Hoover. His stay in Washing- ton has been prolonged, first, from Moriday to Tuesday and now, at least, over today. It may be that in the end he will get the War portfolio. So far it is the Philippines governor gen- eralship that has been offered to him. Everything about Col. Donovan is the greatest shock the Cabinet specu- lators have received. Hardly any could be greater, in fact, than the knowledge that Secretary Mellon is not to be a hold-over, after all. There had been such a general agree- ment among observers as to the close relations between Mr. Hoover and the colonel during the campaign that in the early Cabinet lists he was placed alongside of Secretary Mellon as a cer- tainty. It was not infrequently heard that the colonel advised Mr. Hoover on this piece of strategy or that he was responsible for some other campaign finesse. He was a constant caller at Mr. Hoover’s official home on Massa- chusetts avenue. He was frequently a breakfast, luncheon or dinner guest. An Outstanding Dry Wanted. So the observers, assuming that he would be one of the first Cabinet ap- pointments, quite naturally placed him in the Attorney Generalship, because it is the Department of Justice that he is credited with having practically run for the past several years. It was only a few weeks ago that it developed something was wrong with the mental processes of the observers. Instead of placing Donovan in the At- torney Generalship, it became apparent that Mr. Hoover wanted an outstand- ing dry. Religious attacks made upon Donovan's availability, it has been rep- resented frequently, had no influence with Mr. Hoover. He simply felt, it was explained, that a well-known dry could serve as Attorney General with- out embarrassment. Now it becomes very apparent that if Donovan should, in the final analysis, land the War portfolio, it will be at the CONTINUED ON PAGE 4, COLUMN 3. Diplomats to Submit ~ 7 New “Plan” to Hoover System Framed to Retain Best Posts for Men Now in the Service. Reorganization measures now pend- ing in the State Department have so alarmed prominent members of the American diplomatic service that these officials have prepared a counter-re- organization plan, which is to be pre- sented to President-elect Herbert Hoover by Hugh 8S. Gibson, American Ambassador to Belgium and one of the most intimate friends of the next Chief Executive. This became known yesterday, when it was learned that members of the exclusive “1718 H street northwest” club—composed of the “creme de la creme” of the foreign personnel and several socially prominent outsiders— have determined to approach Mr. Hoover with a new organization scheme for the State Department. Ambas- sador Gibson, one of the members of the club, who is now in Washington (ostensibly to discuss disarmament questions), has been selected to pre- sent this plan to the Preident-elect, HUGH §8. GIBSON. it is understood. It will be backed by most of the outstanding diplomats (at least, in position) that the United States can boast, and is being prepared as speedily as possible.

MARKET BILL VOTE LOOMING IN SENATE Filibuster Threat Ends With Decision to Limit Debate to Brief Talks. HOUSE MEASURE IN TEST By ALBERT W. FOX. Collapse of another threatened fili- buster in the Senate has brought as- surance of a vote on the relocation of the Farmers’ Market in the District cf Columbia today or tomorrow. By unanimous consent agreement, debate on this bill will be limited to ten- minute speeches after 3:39 this after- noon. y Senator Glass, who has led the fight for the Southwest market site, as pro- posed by the Stalker bill, which has already passed the House, gave the Senate ite choice of setting a time for limiting debate or going ahead with a continuous night session. Opposition forces, led by Senator Tydings, yielded gracefully, thereby ending a filibuster which has been waged against this bill since last year. The first test of strength In the Sen- ate between the opposing forces came early in the afternoon when a vote was taken on an amendment by Sen- ator Capper which would have nulll- fied the effect of the Stalker bill. This amendment provided that no site be selected until approved by the Secre- tary of Agriculture, the Park and Plan- ning Commission and the superinten- dent of markets, or a majority of these arbiters. It brought a direct test between the supporters of the Southwest site on the one hand and opponents on the CONTINUED ON PAGE 4, COLUMN 6. 20 Injured As Wrecking Train and Gas Car Crash Coatesville, Pa., Feb. 26 (A.P.).— Twenty persons were injured, 2 serious- ly, at Laurel, 10 miles from here, today, in a collision of a Reading Co. gasoline passenger car and a wrecking train. The passenger car left Reading, Pa., at 6:20 a. m. for Wilmington, Del. The two most seriously injured are Albert Knabb, of this city, and Grant Hand- work, 39, of Elverson, Pa., both of whom are in the local hospital. The gasoline passenger one-car trai was due in Wilmington at 9:30. The wrecking train, also southbound, was proceeding to Laurel to remove debris from the tracks caused by the derail- ment of a freight train. The impact was so great that the cars of the wreck- ing train were telescoped. In Relapse Marshal Foch Fights Death Two of Five Doctors of War Hero Despair of His Victory in Battle.

The old warrior who, on a desperate day in 1914, declared, “My right is crushed, my left is in retreat, I am attacking with my center,” is at last apparently on the defense on all fronts with little hope of another victory.

MUNICIPAL CENTER BILL GOES THROUGH Senate Authorizes Purchase of 4 Blocks for Houses; Now Up to President. OTHER D. C. ACTS PASS The legislative levees in the Senate broke yesterday, and seven District bills were passed, including the Sim- mons biJl authorizing the purchase of four squares for a municipal center here. This measure already has passed the House and now goes to the Presi- dent. The Senate also passed Capper-Zihl- man bill authorizing the construction here of twelve public bathing pools. This also goes to the President. Other bills passed were as follows: The Capper bill providing for the erection of a children’s tuberculosis sanatorium at a cost of $500,000. The Copeland bill. authorizing tae construction of two high-power in- ciperators for the destruction of refuse at a cost of $850,000. The. Blaine bill amending the work- men’s compensation act so as to make it unnecessary for fraternal organiza- tions, social clubs and war veterans organizations to carry insurance on officers or employes. The Capper bill to award gold and Silver medals to heroic policemen and firemen. The Fess bill to grant authority to the American Red Cross to supplaat its temporary office structure with a new and modern office building in the rear of the main building. Had it not been for Senator Heflin (Democrat), Alabama, the Senate would have passed the bill to provid® free text- books for high school children. Senator Phipps (Republican), Colorado, who up until now has opposed the bill, agreed to vote for it if certain amendments were made, and Senator Capper had the amendments ready. ‘ Heflin, however, insisted that his two amendments to the bill be adopted be- fore he would consent to its passage. One of his amendments provides that the textbooks shall not contain any- thing contrary to the principle of sepa- ration of church and state. The other amendment states that all the textbooks purchased under the bill must go to public schools. 4 If the Senate would not approve his amendments, Heflin said, he was going to move that the bill go over. At this point several senators moved that the next bill be taken up, and this was done. It is possible that the bill will be passed at a night session of the Senate this week. Within the municipal center created by the Simmons bill will be erected an CONTINUED ON PAGE 5, COLUMN 4. Schoolgirl, Hit by Auto, Lies 424.

GOES BACK TO SENATE FOR ITS AGREEMENT Coolidge’s Attitude Toward Pian Causes Speculation on Capitol Hill. The Dale-Lehibach bill to liberalize the civil service retirement law passed the House yesterday by the impres- sive vote of 219 to 0. It now goes back to the Senate so that body can concur in a@ minor amendment, after which it will go to the President. The burning question now is, what will President Coolidge do? Recently he made .it clear that te was opposed to the bill, but shortly after President Green of the American Federation of Labor talked to him and seemed pleased with the result. Representative Woodrum (Democrat), of Virginia, declared yesterday that the House leaders never would have let the bill come up for a vote but for the fact that it was so late that the President could exercise a pocket veto and thus prevent Congress from pass- ing the measure over a normal vote. Gesture, Shouts Woodrum, “It is nothing but a gesture to bring this bill up now,” Woodrum shouted. “Everybody knows it can never become a law. If there had been the slight- est chance in the world of its being signed by the President, it would not have been brought up. The whole thing is a colossal] joke.” The bill increases the average an- nuity to about $800 a year, permits optional retirement after 30 years’ service, and permits employes to re- tire two years earlier than they do now. Chairman Snell of the House rules committee, who frequently ‘ was accused of trying to block considera- tion of the bill, issued a statement yesterday in which he pointed out that much misleading information has been given out ‘regarding the cost of the bill. ; The truth is, Snell said, that the bill would add $10,000,000 a year to the Government’s contribution to the retirement fund for the next 30 years. Increase About $10,000,000. Under the present retirement law, Snell said, the Federal Government is contributing $19,950,000 a year toward the retirement fund, and the em- ployes are contributing $28,000,000. Under the Dale-Lehlbach bill, he said, the Federal Government would have to contribute approxfmately $30,000,000 a year for about 30 years, while the em- ployes continued to contribute $28,- 000,000. After the 30-year period, he said, the present arrangement would be renewed. Representative Dallinger (Repub- lican), of Massachusetts, declared on the floor yesterday that the Federal retirement law is the least liberal in the world, “Many private employers,” he said, “retire their employes with annuities and without requiring them to con- tribute toward a retirement fund. Others collect 25 per cent from the employes, paying 75 per cent them- selves. Most of them have a 50-50 basis. 50-50 Bases Intended. “when the original retirement act was passed in 1920, it was supposed to be on the 50-50 basis. If the Govern- ment had contributed its share, a fund of from $300,000,000 to $400,000,000 would have been accumulated by this time, and the proposed retirement lib- eralization wouldn’t have cost an extra cent. “Even if we pass this bill the amount would not be anywhere near a 50-50 basis—that is, a 50 per cent contribu- tion by the Federal Government and a 50 per cent contribution by the Federal employes.” Chairman Snell, of the rules com- mittee, afterward declared that, under the bjll, the Federal Government would pay more than half of the retirement fund for a period of 30 years. Quick Ouster Is For ‘‘Crooks’’in Office 4 io Asked ee Sproul Hits Lagging and Red Tape in House Bill; Plans Drastic Dry Law. A bill to speed up ouster proceedings against corrupt and unfaithful public officers in the District was introduced in the House yesterday by Representa- tive Sproul (Republican), Kansas. The bill also is designed to break up “racketeering” and many other local evils. In the next few days Sproul will introduce another bill, a measure to place a drastic local prohibition en- forcement act on the statute books, Sproul said that the cases of former Commissioner Frederick A. Feining and Police Capt. Guy E. Burlingame in- spired him to draft the bill. was entirely too much red tape and time involved, and this the. bill would eliminate, Under the terms of the Sproul biil, cases involving local public officials would take precefence over everything else in the Police Court and the Dis- trict Supreme Court. In the case of a corrupt or derelict commissioner, or corporation counsel, the bill would substitute court action for tmpeachment proceedings in the House of Representatives. Such cases would get to the District Supreme Court, and would be prosecuted by the Ww In both these cases, he said, there/ —— . Harris & Ewing.

The result would be that pubiic officials here United States attorney or one of his assistants. PAY BILL REMEDIES ' Brookhart-Lehibach Plan to to Come Up Today, Belief; Fight Is Expected. — FRIENDS STILL: OPTIMISTIC The Brookhart-Lehlbach bill to cor- rect inequalities in the Welch salary act may come up in the House today. Representative Lehlbach (Republi- can), of New Jersey, chairman of the House civil service committee, an- nounced last night that he would make arn attempt to call up the bill today. He previously had stated that he had little hope that the bill would pass, but evidently he.~has undergone a change of heart. If the Brookhart-Lethbach bill does pass the House an attempt will be made to rush it through the Senate. If it fails in the House, Senator’ Brookhart (Republican), of Iowa, will insist that the Senate adopt his amendment to the second deficiency bill. This amendment contains virtually the same provisions that are contained in the Brookhart bill to correct the Welch pay act. Under the provisions of the amendment, employes that got only a $60 raise under the act will get a $120 raise, and those who got only a $100 raise will get a $200 raise. In all probdbility, the second defi- clency bill will vome up in the Senate tomorrow and the prospects are that a determined attempt will be made to eliminate that section of the bill which provides salary decreases to higher em- ployes in the Federal service All such attempts in the House failed Luther C.

In the meantime there will be no definite move made by the District at- torney's office to push the matter be- fore the grand jury. It is understood Collins has been the recipient of communications, including a number of letters from Senator Cara- Way, of Arkansas, and that these, too, will be submitted to the jury. Few of thesé communications, how- ever, are thought to be worth, as evi- @ence, the paper they are written on, are they thought to be of the type rhich will eventually produce informa- tion of genuine merit or use. ?

Following her testimony, Mrs. Bla- lock returned to Collins’ office, where she was again beseiged by reporters. She declared she was too exhausted as the result of her appearance before the trial board and the grand jury to be interviewed, but, nevertheless, seemed inclined to answer a few questions. Collins, however, blasted the hopes of the reporters by stating she had told all she could bly tell and advised her against talking to newspaper men. Obeys Collins’ Suggestion. “Well, if you think I shouldn't do it, Mr. Collins,” the palmist replied, “then I will not be interviewed.” Mrs. Blalock was then taken to an adjoining office by the prosecutor and was given her compensation for testi- fying before the jury. She was paid $2 witness fee and $3 subsistance fee. Collins also stated that the expense of bringing her to the Capita] from Chi- cago and of her return there will be borne by the Government. From the testimony given by the woman at the trial board, it was stated, the utmost charge that could be placed against Burlingame would be a statu- tory one. The palmist admitted before the trial board that her relations with the captain were “improper, I suppose.” Leahy Attacks Jury. The present grand jury’s action has been under fire because it has only 22 members. William E. Leahy, coun- sel for Burlingame, is engaged in one of these attacks on the jury, contend- ing that indictments reported by the jury are invalid since a vacancy cre- ated by the resignation of one of its members, Mrs. Lilian Pritchard, has not been filled. Leahy’s attack concerns the first- degree murder indictment against Samuel Jenkins, accused of mortally woun Patrolman McAuliffe, of the Seventh Precinct, last month. However, Chief Justice Walter I. Mc- Coy has disposed of one of the attacks on the abbreviated jury, holding that indictments returned are valid. Seattle Combats Meningitis Spread.

Seattle, Wash., Feb. 26 (U.P.).—Phy- sicians and attendants at hospitals here tonight worked to prevent spread of a spinal meningitis epidemic and curb further deaths among the 145 steerage passengers of the steamer President Lincoln. One man was dead tonight and three others, including a woman, were near death from the disease, which broke out on the ship while at sea. Fafino Ogoa, Filtpino, succumbed to the disease, and Urundia Fernande, the only woman patient, was near death. All the sick were Orientals. Eleven pa- tients were in the hospital critically ill and the 145 other steerage passen- gers of the around-the-world liner were under quarantine. Dr. Paul 8s.

They have been pouring into the em- bassy in such numbers that a secretary has been engaged to help Lindbergh’s fiancee acknowledge the wishes for her happiness coming from all parts of the world. This morning the affianced couple snatched an opportunity for one last stroll through the picturesque byways of Cuernavaca, but after luncheon they — ee —_—- STORM TOLL NOW 38: FEBRUARY 27. 192%. ne eee eee DISEASE NEW PERIL Red Cross and Other Agencies Seek to Prevent Epidemic in Tornado Area. 50 SENT TO HOSPITALS Duncan, Miss., Feb. 26 (U.P.).—Physi- cians, nurses and an army of Red Cross relief workers joined forces here to- night in concentrated effort to preven the spread of epidemic diseases ir western Mississippi, eastern Arkansas and northeast Texas where tornadoes claimed a toll of 38 lives and inflicted vast property damage. The shadow of the new menace— projected itself across the scene of desolation as rivers and streams, swollen by torrential rains, began gradually to subside. From sections of small streams were still cutting rape- cious paths to large rivers, which were climbing rapidly toward the flood mark The latest count of the tornado dead here tonight was 21. Red Cross workers and militiamen stated that 50 injured. many seriously were being cared for in hastily estab- lished hospitals and evacuation centers. In Other Storm Areas. Reports from other sections of the storm area stated that two were dead at Grand Prairie, Tex.; two dead and five gravely injured at Cooper, Tex.; two dead at Dewitt, Ark.; two dead and three injured by falling timber at Van, Ark.; two dead at Darling, Miss.; three dead at Clarksdale, Miss.; two dead at Alligator, Miss., and two dead at Marks, Miss. Many of the towns reported the number of injured as undetermined. While Red Cross workers were bend- ing every effort to care for the injured, American legionnaires and National Guardsmen, dispatched from neighbor- ing stations, began the work of clear- ing away debris. They were hampered by high winds and rain, which. made the work of prying through the twisted mass of wreckage dangerous because of slip footing. e storm struck here yesterday, vir- tually wiping the town off the map. Trees were wrenched from the ground and hurled through the air for many feet. Houses collapsed before the ter- rific rush of wind and rain. All tele- graph and telephone communication was disrupted so that no news of the disaster could be sent to surroundin sections of the country. Hurled Down by Wind. So great was the strength of the wind that men and women were thrown down by the blasta, One man said he saw the body of a small child hurled through the air and dashed against a high tree trunk. egro workers, terrified by the in- tense flashes of lightning and howling of wind, wailed with fanatic fervor for help from heaven. frightened beyond speech.

Some of the | younger American diplomats are on the | roster of the club as junior members, ‘such as George Gordon, who is now attached to the American Embassy in Paris, and Theodore Marriner, chief of the Division of Western Affairs. They are being coached for membership and will be admitted upon completion of a requisite course of training peculiar to the craft. Mr. Marriner now lives at the club and Mr. Gordon stops there whenever he is in town. As the proposed reorganization plan to be advanced by Ambassador Gibson now stands, it would provide that im- portant posts at the State Department be allotted to experienced and capable men—which is to say, those members of the foreign service who now hold most of the choice positions in the service. If, as has been suggested, the various chiefs of divisions are to be made permanent offices, these would be given to favored members of the career service who regard with grow- ing alarm the projected changes of the new regime.

Speculation as to when and where the wedding will take place continues to preoccupy everybody in the capital of Mexico. Until forma] announcement of the wedding plans is made all con- jectures will be without sound foun- dation. The majority of guesses, how- | Bond Building Main 3934 ‘ever, are that the colonel and hia Anne |will be married here, where their ro- {mance began. It is further speculated ithat it will be a church wedding. In this connection it has been point- (ed out that, by a special edict of the | Mexican government, certain foreign | ministers, if registered, may officiate |at marriage ceremonies. There would _be no legal barrier, therefore, to a cere- mony here with Ambassador Morrow officiating at his daughter's wedding. | The automobile trip from Cuernavaca to Mexico City today was uneventful. The road along which Col. Lindbergh guided the car wound through a moun- tainous countryside which not long since was Infested with bandits. But recently a new highway has been laid 'out which avolds all but one hamlet land which is strongly guarded. This was constructed after Ambassador Mor- row and the British Minister to Mexico, Esmond Ovey, fell into the regular cus- tom of making week-end journeys to Cuernavaca, May Remain for Week. It was stated authoritatively at the embassy today that Lindbergh prob- ably will remain in Mexico at least for the rest of this wek. The fact that he flew here from Eagle Pass, Tex., in @ four-passenger plane, though alone, is taken as an indication that he may take members of the Morrow family up for short filghts. When he was here last November Miss Anne Morrow flew over Mexico: City with him and Mrs. Morrow over the Volcano Popocatepetl. She was the first woman ever to make that fiight. Col, Lindbergh and his flancee are planning for a quiet family evening at the embassy. A few members of the embassy staff are expected at dinner. Tomorrow Lindbergh may go to Val- buena flying field to inspect the plane in which he flew here.

PAY BILL REMEDIES MAY ENGAGE HQUSE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) the Brookhart-Lehibach bill. Not only does he expect this bill to pass, but he expects that the pay reduction feature will be eliminated from the second deficiency bill. The Brookhart bill adds no salary step-up which the Welch act eliminat- ed, thus making the same number of step-ups which the original clasifica- tion act contained. This will make it possible to give the employes the raises which were assigned them under the ruling of Comptroller General McCarl. The controversial section of the bill is that introduced by Representative Lehibach, of New Jersey. This pro- vides that the Personnel Classification Board shall have final jurisdiction in ellocating employes to the various grades. A number of members, no- tably Bachman, of West Virginia, are prepared to fight this section of the bill, They contend that it would strip the department heads of the right they now possess, and give the Personnel Classification Board more power than is good for it.

QUIET MARKS BALLOTING Chicago, Feb. 26 (A.P.).—Forces of Mayor William Hale Thompson repulsed their foes in ay’s aldermanic elec- tions, losing four seats, but retaining their heavy majority control of the city council, Despite the bitterness that attended the preelection campaign between Thompson and “reform” elements, punctuated by threats of violence and terrorism, the election day was “almost disappointingly peaceful,” in the words of Rush C.

The Solid South still sticks to its faith in Stribling, but it will take a better effort than young W. L. yet has shown to beat Jack Sharkey as of battle. Strangely enough, with Miami Beach crowded with sporting gentry from all parts of the country, big operators whose bets at Hialeah are staggering the bookmakers, multimillionaires who like a flutter on an affair of this kind, and all the hangers-on and some of the riffraff of fistiana there is compara- tively little betting on the fight. In a game of faro bank last night, participated in by big gamblers, includ- stamp, thousands of dollars changed hands in a few hours. Every one thought Jack Sharkey was a cinch to win. But no one around the table would offer better than even money on the Lithuanian’s chances. Technically, the odds tonight are 6 to 5 on Sharkey, but actually, if one has any considerable amount of money to wager on Stribling, one has difficulty in finding any one to lay the odds. Despite the fact that all the experts select Sharkey, their opinion has had little influence upon the betting. Both fighters have disappointed 60 often that their followers are skeptical. The injury to young Stribling’s rib last week which all but caused postpone- ment of the fight, has not seemed to raise the odds in Sharkey’s favor. This is only one of many strange angles to this affair. Now that the thunder of the ballyhoo has died away somewhat, with $350,000 and more in the bank and the box offices still the scene of insistently clamoring cash customers, attention has turned to the fighters. Heretofore the personality of Jack Dempsey, the good humor of Bill Carey and the presence of numerous other celebrities complete- ly overshadowed what slight interest there was in William Lawrence Strib- ling and Joseph Paul Cuckoshay. One wonders why Sharkey, with his 10-pound weight advantage, his ap- parently superior condition, his confi- dence and his record, is not regarded more highly by comparison with the rather peaked young Southerner. Some observers profess to smell a rat. They think that Stribling did his real train- ing for this fight during his ring en- gagements this winter while he was adding to his long string of knockouts, which now totals 114. . They believe the Georgian has been holding back in his training here, and that he has ad- vanced to the point of fistic excellence where he can knock out Sharkey with right-hand punches. If its one of those fights in which the men stand up and trade wallops, the dope might as well be tossed to the flying fish in Biscayne Bay, for then anything may happen. a KELLOGG PACT KISS, OAS PARIS DEPUTY the Lithuanian shapes upon the eve | ing Nick the Greek and others of his? Kisses, He Adds, Often Pre- cede Fights; Others Praise ° Move Against War. GIVE CREDIT TO BRIAND Paris, Feb. 26 (A.P.).—The Kellogg pact for the renunciation of war came in for some criticism and considerable bantering as debate parjament on ratification opened to- day, but it also aroused enthusiastic and whole-hearted approval. Pierre Cot, the deputy who reported favorably on the bill recommending ratification, eulogized the pact as be- ing an international gesture for good will and peace among men but he ex- pressed the feeling that it should be known as the Briand-Kellogg accord, claiming that France should share equally the honor of outlawing war. Premier Poincare, who was absent during the early part of the debate, came into the chamber late in the discussion and sat next to Foreign Minister Briand, but neither was calied upon to intervene in defense of the pect against criticism which was rather mild in character and dealt more with interpretation and reservations. than with the fundamental basis of the ac- cord itself. Deputy Guernot averred that the pact was “ a mere international! kiss,” meaning nothing and added, often precede fights.” Whether the American Secretary of State should be known in history as “Kellogg peace pact or Kellogg 10,000- tons cruisers” was the contribution of Marcel Cachin, leader of the French Communist party. A vote is not expected before Friday evening as numerous orators are de- sirous of presenting their own ideag on the question. The discussion was ad- journed until Thursday afternoon, to- morrow’s session being taken up with debate on remodelling the French rent law. Cuban Crops to Be Surveyed.

AGREED UPON Berlin, Feb. 26 (A-P.).—D‘scussions today of the state of Germany's pariia- mentary system in two widely separated quarters brought out that Gustave Stresemann, foreign msmnister, and the Steel Helmets, an organization which has been accused of fostering the idea of restoring the empire, are in agree- ment on the need for reform. The Steel Helmeters assured Presi- dent yon Hindenburg, who threatened to withdraw as honorary chairman of the organization, that they were not aiming to destroy the republic, but to reform the constitution so a3 to give greater stability to the centra) govern- ment. Must Curb Organization. Herr Stresemann, presiding at a spe~ cial meeting of the cent executive committee of the People’s Party, de- cried the system which permits politi- cal organizations to w*thdraw ite mem- bers from the cabizet, and said changes were needed to halt the vote-snatching proclivities of the political organiza- tions. This committee was called to review the entire situation in view cf the re- cet withdrawal of the Centrists of their cabinet representatives and also to consider the failure of the People’s Party to win a place in the Prussian state government. The foreign minister swung the executive committce to his viewpoint and it decided to offer no obstacles to the formation of a coalition in the federal government to include the Centrists, even though in Prussia the party had been left out of the state coalition. Hitherto the party leaders had insisted that both questions should be handled simultaneously. Need of Majority Committed, In persuading the committee to give up that stand, Herr Stresemann said that while the renarations problem was up fc discussion in Paris and while the Federal budget was looming on the ‘tomestic horizon; it was im- perative that the federal cabinet should be constituted so as to command a majoriety of the reichstag. The party representatives agreed, therefore, to postpone their campaign for recon- struction of the Prussian state govern- ment until after the federal problem of reparations was out of the way.

REFUND PUBLICITY LOSES (Assotiated Press.) The Senate appropriations committee yesterday reversed its position on the Harris proposal for a $24,000,000 in- crease in prohibition funds and voted down an attempt to add this amount to the second deficiency appropriation bill. The second deficiency measure, car- rying more than $200,000,000 to meet a number of emergency demands scat- tered throughout the country, was re- ported to the Senate last night and the prohibition fight will be renewed on the Senate floor today. Senator Harris (Democrat), Georgia, the author of the dry fund amendment, announced he would ask the Senate to add the $24,000,000 to the bill in the place of the $2,700,000 increase for pro- hibition enforcement put in the measure by the House upon the recommendation of President Coolidge. The Sénate added this amount to the first deficiency measure, now aban- doned, by almost a two-to-one vote, but leaders were confident that, in view of the $2,700,000 increase for dry en- forcement, the Harris fund would be defeated. Republicans on the commit- tee lined up solidly against the Harris provision and they were joined by two Democrats. The -ommittee also rejected the amendment of Senator McKellar (Demo- crat), Tennessee, for publicity of hear- ings on tax refund cases. This amend- ment to the first deficiency bill was strongly opposed by Secretary Mellon. Policeman F. A. Davis Dismissed From Force Charged with living with the wife of another man Patrqiman F. A. Davis, of the Second Precinct, was dismissed from the police force yesterday when the District Commissioners approved the findings of a police trial board which had heard the case. Davis was charged with living with the wife of Rosser M. Kane for several months in various places as man and wife.. He did not appear at the trial, declaring, it was testified, that he Mad resigned and there was no purpose of putting in a defense of an appearance. Later an attorney sought to have the decision set aside, but the trial board overruled his motion. House Sets Record With Bill a Minute 175 Pension Bills Are Swept From the Calendar; 168 Passed. (By Associated Press.) Going at the rate of a bill a minute, the House considered 175 private-claim pension bills on its calendar last night and sent them on their way to the Senate and the President. Of the measures the House passed 168. Six were obstructed by objec- tions and a seventh was gent back to the war claims committee for changes. The speed with which the House plowed through the calendar ap- proached any that the body has ever attained heretofore in working on the calendar. COL. DONOVAN FAILS TO GET CABINET POST CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. greatest reluctance on the part of Mr. Hoover. There is no reason to believe, in fact, that he will get this place. The matter is certainly not settled, however, as long as he and Mr. Hoover keep con- ferring. Civil Engineer for War Department. Mr. Hoover has been represented— and it is believed correctly so—as anxious to get a civil engineer for the War De- partment. The general staff usually runs the military activities of the coun- try anyway, 80 the President-elect, it is believed, would like to get some one to give expert attention to the extensive flood control and inland waterway projects now under way or contem- plated and which are under the War Department’s jurisdiction. If he yet has any one in mind to fill the bill it is not known. Possibly he has. It is not believed any definite offers have been made regarding this t, which would make it still more azardous to say definitely that Dono- van will not get it. Supreme Court Justice Harlan F. Stone was another caller yesterday, giv- ing some credence to reports that Mr. Hoover might again seek to prevail upon him to accept the Attorney Gen- eralship. The hottest report of the day, however, was that Solicitor General Mitchell, of Minnesota, would get the place. Not a Shouting Democrat. Mitchell is a Democrat, but not a shouting one. In fact, it is understood Certainly, he was appointed to his present office by President: Coolidge. When some or- ganization senators Jeard the Mitchell reports they expressed quite sarcastic disapproval, not because of Mr. Mitch- ell’s ability, but because he was at least once a Democrat. But there is reason to believe that Mr. Hoover wants to give at least a certain independent touch to his ad- ministration. Appointment of a man like Mitchell would go a long way to- ward doing this. Vice President and Mrs. Dawes were callers, Mrs. Dawes having to leave to attend another engagement, but Mr. Dawes focal oo one at for luncheon.

Los Angeles, Feb. 26 (A.P.).—From the glitter of Hollywood’s film land, where she once reigned as a star in the screen firmament, Alma Rubens today had gone to a State hospital, a victim of the narcotic habit, on com- plaints of her husband and mother. “She was under the care of physi- cians at her mother’s home in Beverly Hills tonight and will be removed to the institution at the discretion of her husband or mother.” At the Spadra, Calif., institution she will be confined for a period of not less than elght months por more than two years by an order which was issued late last night at a special session of Superior Judge M. F. McComb’s court. This newest skirmish in the beautiful actress’ fight for freedom from the habit was enacted with extreme secrecy. Judge McComb was called from a the- ater performance to his court chamber by the actress’ mother, Mrs. Teresa Rubens, and her actor husband, Ri- cardo Cortez. They asked that a war- rant for “Alma R. Cortez’s” confine- ment be- issued at once. Judge Mc- Comb complied, but other than ad- mitting the action, he refused to discuss the case earlier today.

Miss Rubens leaves behind her a tan- | gle of lawsuits and invesigations which was spun from her life of the past few months. A Federal investigation was pending against Dr. L.

Her case first came to the attention of authorities when she slashed a physician with a knife several weeks ago as she was being taken to a sani- tarium, and then leaped from thé car as it sped down a boulevard. She was reported to be near death several times from the ravages of the habit, but rel- atives today insisted that she was “im-~ proved.” Paid Spouse to Hold His Love, Says Wife Mrs. Wood, Accused of Death Plot, Faints in Tell- ing of Her Cash Gifts. Detroit, Feb. 26 (A.P.).—Mrs. Grace Wood, central figure in an alleged plot to abduct and kill her husband, Ralph A. Wood, Wyandotte, Mich., real estate dealer, fainted this afternoon while tes- tifying before Judge Harry J. Dinge- man, sitting as @ one-man grand jury to investigate the shooting, January 9, of Ambrose L. Hagerty, in front of Wood's office. Her collapse was caused, Mrs. Wood said later, by a recital of financial gifts to her husband in an effort to keep his affection. The grand jury is sitting to deter- mine whether the shooting of Hagerty was a.crime. He was killed when he walked into a police ambuscade pre- pared for gunmen who, Wood said he had learned, planned to abduct and kill him at his wife’s instance. A half dozen men have admitted firing at Hagerty, but it is not known which shots were the fatal ones. Burlingame Trial Visitor Complains Group of Southeast Wash- ington Hears J. C. L. Ritter Tell of “‘“Roughness.”’ A protest against the alleged rough treatment of Burlingame trial visitors by police of the Sixth Precinct was voiced last night at the meeting of the Southeast Washington Citizens As- sociation by John C. L. Ritter, of 1511 G street southeast, a member of the executive committee. Ritter, formerly a coal merchant here and a witness before the Gibson sub- committee six months ago at sewerage hearings, declared that on Saturdey morning 40 persons waiting several hours to gain admission to the trial, some of them women, were roughly herded into a small room by the precinct police without being admitted to the trial room or being told that no room for visitors was left. The association last night advocated the selection of a site for the proposed Vice President's residence on Pennsyl- vania avenue southeast, suggesting the present Government-owned property at Tenth street and Pennsylvania avenue southeast, now occupied by a Spanish- American War Veterans’ home The executive committee was ordered to consider possible sites and to report at the next meeting. Woman, Blinded by Rain, Is Injured by an Auto Unable to see clearly through the rain of last night, Miss Jessie Patton, 50 years old, 1353 Girard street north- west, was knocked to the pavement when she stepped in front of an auto- mobile at Fourteenth and Girard streets, police of the Tenth Precinct re- ported. Dr. J. Rozier Biggs, 1323 Girard street northwest, driver of the car which Army Auto Driver Hits Woman; Flees Mrs. William Schultz Is Cut About Head in Collision; Operator Sought. Two accidents in which Army Cars figured, one of which was a hit-and- run case, were reported to poléce of the Laurel substation of the Maryland State police yesterday. Mrs. William Schultz, of Severn, Md., was cut about the face and head when her automobile was struck by an Army automobile, which failed to step, near Fort Leonard Wood. State policemen yesterday worked all day in an effort to establish the identity of the hit- and-run driver. who was said to have been a soldier. A motor truck of the Pifteenth motor repair section, of Fort Myer, Va., was hit by an automobile driven by Moses Schiar, Silver Spring, Md., on the Wash- ington-Baltimore boulevard, near Deep Run, yesterday. The Army truck was operated by Harold W. Sturgis, a sol- dier stationed at Fort Myer. Schlar’s car skidded into the rear of the truck when his brakes failed to hold on the slippery road and telescoped the front end of his car. Schlar was shaken up but otherwise uninjured. ; '| Cobb Island Association Raises $2,000 for Hall The Cobb Island Citizens Associa- tion, composed of lot owners of Cobb Island, Md., who live in Washington, last year raised $2,000 by dances and public entertainments toward: erection of a community hall in the settlement, according to the report of Auditor F.

SUBDUED BY POLICEMEN. New York, — Feb. 26 (N.Y.W.NS.). persons were stabbed and hun- dreds who jammed the southbound platform of the Times Square subway station at 6:10 o'clock tonight were routed in a panic when John Kipp, 28, iron worker, went insane and started slashing at everything within reach with a long-bladed carving knife. While he screamed what sounded like German, he stabbed Nathan Frei- man, 15, of Brooklyn, twice in the breast and cut his arm to the bone. The blade reached at least three other persons, none of whom was seriously wounded. Police are convinced that others were cut but fled without mak- ing reports. The platform was thick with wet, chilly people, facing the evening fight for transportation, when Kipp, with- out warning, drew the knife and be- gan to wield it wildly through the air. Before it all was ended Kipp had stood off the police with considerable success until he was battered Into sub- mission by their nightsticks. A train had just drawn alongside the platform when Kipp started his butchery. He was standing midway between the ends of the station. Fortunately for the crowds, he re- mained almost in the same spot. A wide space quickly opened around him when he started his spree, and most of the damage was done in a few mo- ments before the crowd reailzed what was happening and fled. He slashed blindly, according to De- tective Thomas Hannigan, without bearing down upon anybody in par- ticular, Kipp did, however, fight a “duel” with some of the steel pillars on the platform and put up a good batti against Patrolman Harry Schaffel, who was the first to attempt to subdue him. Schaffel was directing Forty-second street and Seventh avenue when he saw an excited stream of per- sons running out of the exits, some of whom told him a maniac was amuck with a knife on the subway platform. Schaffel found Kipp standing in the middle of a wide space, while hundreds watched from the safety of the north- bound platform. The patrolman, with his blackjack, immediately went for Kipp, who received two raps upon the head without flinching. In the mean- time the alarm had been spread and other police and detectives hastened to the scene with nightsticks. The knifer, finally subdued and semicon- scious, was carried to the Polyclinic Hospitel, where he was treated for lacerations and possible fractures of the skull. Later the man, who is 6 feet 2 inches tall, was taken to the prison ward of Bellevue Hospital.

Curtis, Tydings Ready to Block Vote. Usually after a test vote the battle is over and the bill passed. But the bitterness in this long-drawn-out fight was such that, Senator Tydings took the floor and continued the discussion, at the same time indicating readiness to block any further vote. Senator Glass served notice at. this point that there would be a vote and that filibustering tactics would be coped with by continuous session. “I’m not so stupid as not to observe that what is going on is merely to de- lay a vote on this bill,” Senator Glass said, after Senators Tydings and Wheel- er had prolonged the discussion. The senator from Maryland had taken a commanding position before a chart in the center aisle, near the rostrum, and had emphasized his remarks with 4, pointer, while Wheeler reinforced his statements with frequent interruptions. Tydings Reviews Objections. Tydings reviewed all the objections which had been raised against the House bill by those interested in other sites. Every conceivable objection marshalled by many months of organized effort to defeat the Hoyse bill and locate the market where it would prove advan- tageous to other interests was rehearsed by Mr. Tydings. Meanwhile, Glass charged that Tydings had promised that he would consume only fifteen minutes and had “already taken an hour and a half.” Tyding retorted that Glass had promised not to interrupt him and). had not kept that promise. There were sharp tilts between Tyd- ings and Bruce, though the two sena- tors are personal friends and chatted together amicably after Tydings had completed his speech. Senator Norris made a characteristic power-trust speech prior to the time for the unanimous consent agreement. Today Tydings will press for an amendment to defeat the bill by hav- ing action held up until a commission of three selected by the President of the United States approves the agite. This is the Capper amendment in an-,. other form, but gives the Maryland senator a last chance to upset the ad- vantage already gained by Senator Giass of Virginia.” Virginia and Maryland have been opponents in this prolonged battle over the site. The bill provides for an expenditure of $300,000 for the market site to be located in the area bounded by Terth, Eleventh, E and G streets southwest, near phe water front.

PROPERTY DAMAGE GREAT Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 26 Cold weather tonight was expected to check the rampages of rain-swelled rivers and streams that flooded several sections of the State today, driving thousands from their homes, imperiling the lives of many and causing consid- | erable damage everywhere. Scores of persons were rescued from precarious places where the flood had | driven them. No loss of life was re- ported. Although the total damage was believed to be very great, no esti- mate was available tonight. The thawing streams, augmented by rainfall and melting snow, overflowed their banks and sent their waters pour- ing into a dozen cities and towns. Highways were flooded clear across the southern section of the State. Springfield Is Crippled. Springfield was hardest hit.

Hundreds of persons living in the rowboats after they attracted attention by shooting guns and ringing bells. Two of the three pumps at the water- works, put out of commission by the high waters, were back in operation tonight and electric service was again available. Traction service was resumed after the water receded from the,streets but trains on the Big Four anf Erie Railroads had to be rerouted because of washouts. Yellow Springs, the seat of Antioch College, was threatened with a water shortage as pumps in the water works were forced out of commission by the backwash of’ the Little Miami River. Water held in the reservoirs was all that could be counted on and it was feared the pumps could not be put back in operation for several days. Rescued From Island. Twelve persons, who had gone to an island at the mouth of Rocky River, near Cleveland, to gaze at an ice jam, were placed in grave danger when the jam suddenly broke as preparations were being made to dynamite it. The rushing water crushed against the /s- land and threatened to destroy a dance hall, where the twelve persons took refuge, but suddenly receded and made the rescue possible. Throughout the southern parts of the State the inflated streams brought to mind the flood stages of 1913, when several hundred lives were lost in the Miami River Valley. Several] localities reported higher stages today than in 1918. In the Miami Valley, between Sydney and Hamilton, the five\ basins in the Miami conservancy district held the flood waters in check and no dam- age was feared there. At Hamilton, however, more than 100 persons were taken from their homes in the lowland. district when the Miami got: out over ite banks. Marooned farmers were taken to safe- ty during the day, but toward evening the water began to recede. Two paper miligs at Middletown were forced to shut down’ when the water flooded them. The Shawnee Creek and Little Miami caused considerable damage at Xenia and Spring Valley. At New Burlington all Dut one of the roads leading from the. were impassable because of water. bridges over the Little Miam! were in danger of collapes near Clifton. Bridge Washed Away. The State Highway Department re- ported that a bridge over the Ver- million River at Fitchville, Huron County, was washed away.

J., Feb. 26 (N.Y.W.N.S.). Walking precariously along a narrow ledge 30 feet above the ground, Mary Verdun, 14, today saved her father’s life by balancing herself on one foot and kicking in the window pane, al- lowing fresh air to flood his gas-filled bedroom. The father, Thomas Verdun, 40, a longshoreman out Of work for six months, who had often threatened suicide as a Way Out of hig trouble, was revived when hospital attendants, working with & pulmotor for more than an hour, succeeded in rekindling the spark of life. He is at present in the Jersey City Hospital, where his condi- tion is said to be serious. Mrs. Winifred Verdun, his wife and the mother of five children, smelled escaping gas while preparing break- fast today in their flat near the rail- road tracks. She traced the odor to her husband’s bedroom and, recalling his frequent allusions to suicide, sum- moned a neighbor, but the combined efforts of the two women to crash in the bolted door were unavailing. The mother rushed vut to the kitch- en, where Mary was eating a breakfast of bread and milk, and told her her father was killing himself. Mary, a drawn, sallow-looking child, opened the one window of the livsng room and, without hesitating, crawled out on the narrow ledge. Rain was falling, whipped by the wind against the brick wall. The child, holding to the shutters, slowly got to her feet and then, flattening herself against the side of the house, she walked to the window of her father’s room. It was locked. Balancing her- self on one foot, her back to the wall, she smashed the windowpane with a backward kick. After opening the catch by reaching through the broken glass, Mary pulled herself into the room, shut off the gas jet in the wall and, satisfying herself that her father still breathed, rushed for the police after opening w:ndow and door. 7 BILLS FOR DISTRICT PASSED BY SENATE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. array of handsome buildings for the use of the District Government.

Evans, her lover, heard herself call- ed a “cold-blooded killer” today. She heard herself called a “sacrifice at the altar of love.” The prosecuting attor- ney endeavored to show that she was sane. And then her attorneys at- tempted to prove that she was insane. And when court adjourned for the day, Miss King staggered out in the arms of her brother and sobbed: “I want to be with him—I want to be with Bob.” : Evans, a patrolman, was shot and killed by Miss King last November 28, when she discovered him in a Denver Hospital, where she was a nurse. He had been taken to the hospital for treatment of gunshot wounds suffered at the hands of a bandit. Five years previously he had been her sweetheart. Then he married an- other woman. Miss King brooded and when she finally saw him again, even though he was her patient, shot two bullets into his body, one through his heart and the other through his brain, and then attempted to commit suicide. When she recovered she pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity. A jury of mostly married men was chosen today and the trial actually started this afternoon with the open- ing statement of Ralph J. Cummings, assistant prosecutor, who characterized her “a cold-blooded killer.” Then her attorney, Lewis D. Mowry, rotund and jolly, sketched the love af- fair between Miss King and Evans. He told how Evans had made violent love to her, had seduced her, seid, Evans “forgot her—married an- other woman” but told Farice that he still loved her. When Cummings held up the pajama coat, splotched with blood, Miss King screamed. “I can’t stand it,” she said: “I can’t.” Then she collapsed. Her brother hur- ried her from the courtroom. When she returned, the State offered as evidence a note which Miss King had written to Evans just before she killed him. “You belong to me,” the note said. “T can not do without you. I have waited five years for this chance.” Cummings read it sonorously. When he came to the words “You belong to me,” Miss King’s sobs became audible. “You do,” she said. “You belong to me.”’ " The State rested when it had proved that Evans could not have been killed by any one else but Miss King. Her attorneys made no attempt to cross- examine State witnesses. The only witness for the defense to- day was Mrs. Catherine B. King, sister- in-law of Farice. Prior to the time Farice knew Evans, Mrs. King said, she had been a lively, vivacious woman, She met Evans in 1916. The next year, however, Evans joined the Navy. Shortly thereafter, according to Mrs. King, Farice began to show decided ‘ t« tendencies toward mental abnormality. , Prosecuting Attorney Earl Wettengel attempted to get her to admit that in her opinion Miss King was sane. The sister-in-law would not be shaken from her statement that “I believe Farice Then, Mowry | was and is insane.” Two Shot by Holdups; Watch | Saves One Man Montreal, Quebec, Feb. 26 (A.P.).— Two men were shot by two holdup men in the west end of Montreal this aft- ernoon in an attempted robbery. ‘One was left in a critical condition, with several bullets in his body. The other was saved by a watch over his heart. The robbers escaped in a stolen roadster, which later was found aban- doned. Two Killed When Auto Plunges Into Swamp St. George, 8. C., Feb. 26 (AP.).— Two motor accidents in the vicinity of Ridgeville, in Dorchester County, took a toll of three lives today.

A boy was killed when he either fell from or was knocked down and crushed by a milk truck. 'Vare Decision Put Off Through Senate Action (United Press.)

Wednesday, February 27, 1929. . . THE SENATE’S FAILURE. On Monday. night the Senate had the op- portunity to make a decisive move toward ‘xeturh to constitutional representative gov- ernment by enacting the reapportionment - measure, but after an aimless session, devoted to the specious arguments of those opposed to the measure, it recessed. without action. All the usual arguments against reapportion- ment were trotted out and paraded. Senator Black, leader of the opposition, characterized ‘the bill.as'an attempt “by a very inequitable end unjust method to provide a rule whereby . Congress can pass on more, of its powers to a ‘bureau and whittle away the constitutional ’ privileges and prerogatives which have meen vested in the legislative body of the Nation.’ ‘An examination discloses further, he said, ‘that the “shifting is from the small and rural “States of the country into the great States, in ‘which the metropolitan press seuds forth its ‘anathemas against Congress by reason of its -alleged failure to perform its constitutional -@uty.” ; ‘Reapportfonment may cause a shift of rep- -resentation from rural to urban districts, not ‘ pecause, as Senator Black alleges, pne method pt. computing the apportionment is adopted spather than another, but because population “Ateelt has shifted from rural to urban centers. : For -some time the trend has been cityward, -and whether the method of major fractions, the method of equal proportions, or another ois adopted as the basis for reapportionment, $ is likely that there will be a shift in repre- -eentation from rural to urban districts. Senator. Black, in opposing reapportionment son, this ground, strikes at the fundamentals -of representative government. > Ag for Congress “whittling away. its con- ‘stitutional privileges and prerogatives,” the ‘reapportionment measure does not transfer ag the Secretary of Commerce the duty of re- “apportioning. It provides merely that should iacabeen, following the unfortunate prece- Ment established in 1921, fail to reapportion ‘its membership following the census of 1930, in that event only shall the Secretary of Com- “merce make a reapportionment by the -gules set forth in the measure. The Congress “ef 1981 would not be deprived of its consti- tational. right to reapportion. ‘The time remaining before the adjournment “grows short. The fact that the House passed . - the measure was a step toward restoration of ‘ecenstitutional government. The Senate has epportumity to establish itself as a pro- ‘tector of the Constitution. If it fails it will be because it is willing to permit men actu- ated by selfish and sectional motives to domi- mate its affairs. ABOLISH THE TARIFF COMMISSION. Two different schemes for overhauling the Federal Tariff Commission have been pro- posed to the House ways and means com- mittee during the current hearings on the new tariff schedule. Representative Garner pro- posed to abolish the commission as it now exists and establish in its place an ro See body responsible to the House. Jo E. Edgerton, president of the National Associa‘ tion of Manufacturer® outlined a plan which would give almost complete control in tariff g an enlarged commission and rate-makin the President. The latter plan seems to be devised solely to increase the flexibility of tariff rates, and to allow the President, with the advice of a commission appointed by him, to boost the tarif® higher whenever any industry appears in “danger of foreign competition. Mr. Edger- ton asks that the commission be made non- partisan rather than bipartisan; that the num- ber of commissioners be increased and given ‘larger salaries; that the commission shall not only investigate the needs of industries, but shall interpret such facts to the President for the purpose of readjusting rates; that the power of the executive under the flexible pra- vision be increased to enable him to remove “articles to or from the free list, and that a mew formula be worked ovut.as the basis for revision of the schedule. The fact that this plan has the approval of $6,000 manufacturing corporations and 42 business associafions should have little weight ‘ig its favor with Congress, It is to the in- terest of large industries of the country to have the tariff as flexible as possible, so that every time they are faced with competition ' the rates can be boosted and the American # nan ‘made to bear the increase in prices. | Congress is too sensitive to the wishes of the eae: place such a large measure of power Tn hands of a theoretically nonpartisan “commission. It is;an obvious attempt to se- ‘greater protection than can be obtained mgh the regular legislative channels at sent. “When the activities of the non- n’ col met with the disapproval THE WASHINGTON POST: WEDNESDAY, of the public, who could be held responsible for the unsatisfactory conditions? The public would be at a serious disadvantage. Even if it could constitutionally do so, Con. gress can not afford to lose control of its tariff-levying authority. It is safe to say that no such move will be given serious considera- tion. The party tn power ts alone responsible for the tariff schedule, and must remain so. Any change to be made in tariff control should be in the direction of restoring the full re- sponsibility of Congress. The logical and sensible thing to do is to abolish the Tariff Com mission. - THE RETIREMENT BILL. The House yesterday passed the Dale-Lehl- bach bill, liberalizing the civil service retire- ment law by fixing the maximum annuity at $1,200 instead of $1,000. There was no op- posing vote. The Senate already having acted, the bill now goes to the President. It was stated in the House that the leaders would not have permitted the bill to come to a vote except for their confident expecta- tion that the President would veto it. Mr. Coolidge has intimated that the Government has been sufficiently liberal to its civil service employes and that the plan for increased re- tirement annuities should not be pressed at this time. But that he will go to the extent of disapproving the bill may be doubted, in view of the fact that the Federal retirement fund, made up entirely of contributions by the employes themselves, is abundantly able to pay the increased charges. This retirement fund belongs to the em- ployes. They have raised it by steady con- tributions out of inadequate salaries, as a hard | but necessary method of providing for their old age. The increased cost of living has made it necessary that the annuity in- creased if the purpose of the retirement law is not*to be destroyed. The difference be- tween $1,000 and $1,200 represents the dif- ference between privation and comparative comfort in thousands of families. The Wash- ington Post, knowing the situation, earnestly appeals to President Coolidge to approve the Dale-Lehlbach bill. SPRING IS HERE—IN PRACTICE! The cold; dreary’ rain of winter drums its way into the ground; the inauguration, with its threat of snow and sleet, is yet to come: but spring, to a great many people, has practically arrived. Down where the sun brings year- round warmth the boys are chasing the horse- hide around the diamond. The baseball train- ing seasons are under way—tangible evidence that spring, to all intents and purposes, is here. On Monday at St. Petersburg the Yanks got under way and to San Antonio came Jawn McGraw to superintend the conditioning of the Giants. On the same day Walter Johnson led the first contingent of the Nationals on the field at Tampa, and Bucky Hatris, new manager of the Tigers, put his boys through a light prac- tice, session at Phoenix. Today the Cardinals at Avon Park and the Cubs on Catalina Island will start the grind that so frequently leads to preseason Charley horses. Tomorrow the White Sox report at Dallas and the Reds at Orlando. The Athletics at Fort Myers and the Robins at Clearwater have been under way for several] days. Today the teams stand equal. There is no league leader and there is no _ subcellar champion. Between now and next October lies a grind of practice and competition during which new idols will be made and brave hopes disappointed. Let the boys work hard down where the sun, instead of only the stories on the sport pages, gives evidence that spring has arrived, so that the season of 1929 will be the grandest that baseball ever has afforded! pa SSeS THB RETIRING MINISTER OF CHINA. The Minister of Chipa, Dr. Alfred Sze, will leave soon for his homeland, accompanied by Mme. Sze, for a sojourn of several months be- fore taking up his duties as Minister to Great Britain. Few members of the Diplomatic Corps have enjoyed the friendship that has been held by the rank and file of Americans, as well as by the United States Government, toward Alfred Sze. He is, in fact, a Washingtonian, having attended the public schools of this city and identified himself with American life. His education was completed at Cornell University. Through the troublous times in China pre- ceding the triumph of the Nationalist cause, Mr. Sze was in a position to render invalu- able service for his country on account of the confidence reposed in him by the United States Government. His advice was sagacious, his patience untiring, and his patriotism unchal- lenged. Often he was compelled to mark out a course without having the benefit of counsel with his compatriots, but his foresight proved to be accurate. He was indefatigable in bringing about the recognition of the Nation- alist government and the making of the tariff treaty which stands as a landmark in the emancipation of China from foreign interfer- ence. Secretary Kellogg found in Minister Sze a collaborator who assisted in formulating a policy mutually satisfactory to the United States and China, and which other powers are now imitating. The rapid unification of China and the establishment of a government un- hampered by foreign restrictions might have been greatly delayed, if not frustrated,. At the Chinese envoy in Washington during” these critical times had not enjoyed the complete confidence of the American Government. It is with regret that Washington takes note of the departure of this distinguished diplo- mat. He deserves the highest honors that his country can bestow. BEAUTY OPERATIONS. Esthetic surgery has suffered a severe blow in France by a recent decision of the first civil court of Paris that a surgeon has no right to perform an operation on healthy flesh. The French medical profession is much con- cerned over the decision. The institutions that are chiefly concerned with beautification ‘of the human countenance and form will no doubt fight the court’s views to the last ditch. A charming young Frenchwoman came to the conclusion that -her ankles were too thick, and applied to a surgeorm to perfect her pul- chritude by trimming them down. The op- eration consisted of cutting a strip of flesh from her leg. It appeared to have been suc- cessful, but gangrene set in and it was neces- sary to amputate the leg to save the young woman's life. She sued for damages and the court awarded her an equivalent of $8,000. The decision was not based on failure of the surgeon to give proper medical care and treatment, nor on lack of skill] in handling his knife. The court ruled that surgery should be reserved for the preservation of human life, and that opera- tion on a healthy limb was an illegitimate function of the surgeon. ‘‘Despite the doctor’s honest conscience, his high professional in- tegrity and his disinterestedness,’’ the opinion reads, “‘the fact of his having undertaken an operation involving grave risks on a healthy limb without any therapeutic ‘necessity for such operation or even any usefulness what- ever to the health of the person operated upon, constitutes a wrong on his part for which he must take the legal responsibiity.” : In view of the growth of esthetic surgery in this country the opinion will be of partic- ular interest here as well as in France. Similar damage suits in large numbers have been filed in the courts of the States and the District of Columbia, but the common plea is negligence of the practitioner rather than the illegality of the operations. That the appear- ance of many persons has been improved by the beauty surgeons can not be denied. But it is equally true that a considerable number of individuals have been disfigured or even crippled in their attempts to acquire charms denied them by nature. It is a serious thing to risk physical well-being in trying to beau- tify the face or figure. If esthetic surgery is to be given permanent legal sanction it will need strict regulation, and the definite lia- bility of surgeons performing this kind of work can not be established too soon. THE FEDERAL CITY. By WILLIAM: TIPTON TALBOTT. — Pride, the right kind of pride, is a good thing in man or woman; and local pride is a good thing in any community. In which con- nection the following extract from Helen Nicolay’s “Our Capital on the Potomac” is in- teresting: “The. city hotel was the ‘one good tavern’ mentioned by Oliver Wolcott: in a dismal let- ter to his wife, in which he intimated that Washington had gore mad: There appears to bea confident expec- tation that this place will soon exceed any in the world. Mr: Thornton, one of the Commissioners, spoke of a population of 160,000 people as a matter of course in a few years. .No stranger can be here a day, and converse with the proprietors, with- out conceiving himself in the company of crazy people. Their ignorance of the rest of the world and their delusions with respect to their own prospects are with- out parallel. This was in the year 1800 when the Fed- eral Government was just establishing itself here. In consideration of the fact that in addi- tion to Mr. Wolcott there were some others whose view of the living present was unre- lieved by visions of the roseate future, a French diplomat among them exclaiming, “My God, what have I done to be condemned to reside in such a city?” it-is evident that the civic pride of the earliest Capitalians.was not less than 100 per cent plus. How long continued was the dazzling out- look of the Federal City of the days when Georgetown was called “a town of houses without streets’ and Washington “a city of streets without houses’’ is uncertain. But the unfinished condition of the Washington Monu- ment from the laying of its corner stone in 1848 on through the Civil War to its dedica- tion in 1885 seems to indicate that civic pride unlit by the glow of recent revolutionary fires, in the course of time gave place to civic apathy. It was 1871 before it began to glow again, and for a time it glowed in the breast of a single strenuous individual. As is pretty generally known, Alexander R. Shepherd—"Boss’”’ Shepherd—as head of the celebrated Board of Public Works and then as Governor of the District’s short-lived terri-. torial government, was the hard-boiled pio- neer who in the early seventies of the nine- teenth century awakened dormant Washing- ton to the thrill of life. Big and strong and loud-spoken, resourceful and fearless, he lit- erally dug the city out of its state of apathy and broke the final trail to the goal of Wash- ington, Jefferson and L’Enfant. And while he dug he planted trees, and with the growth of the trees the looks of the city improved and kept on improving. Then, in 1900, the centennial of Washing- ton was celebrated. Henry B. F. Macfarland, at that time one of the District Commissioners, was largely instrumental in making the cele- bration a success, and in one'of the optimistic and forward-glimpsing addresses for which he was famous it was he who first spoke of “The City Beautiful.’”” The phrase caught the public fancy, and the civic enthusiasm of our early days was renewed, though with a less startling glow than that of 1800. So that today we dream of Washington as the future queen of all the beautiful cities of the world. And the stranger who remains here for a day is ‘more apt to be convinced that the dream may come true than to conceive himself ‘in the company of crazy people.”’ A city is very much like a citizen in respect to external appearance. An Apollo in slovenly attire is more unsightly than a country bumpkin dressed a la mode, An architec- turally magnificent Capital with unkempt lawns and weather-stained residences and -dis- reputable streets is not as beautiful as a sma) town proud of its tidy tout ensemble. Of course the.great mass of our inaugura- tion visitors will be too much Interested in the Pennsylvania avenue pageant to pay par- ticular attention to outlying streets as to whether they are shabby or attractive. But the tourists who at other times eppear in in- creasing thousands are more critical than perhaps the average citizen imagines. This is their city. They are invited and urged to accept it as theirs, and they are more and more inclined to the idea. There is no Wash- ingtonian so humble that he may not con- tribute to strengthen their sense of honorary citizenship here, if by nothing more than a hospitable smile and a helpful word.

This is not true of mother love alone, but of all love—even that love of home called patriotism—and the happiness of a man and woman who love one another fs a result of their blindness. If they could see the truth, their love would end, but love must end. before the truth is seen. Many marriages fail because they were not true unions in the be- ginning—because the mating was prompted by infatuation, or friend- ship, or a zest for adventure, and not by love. How, then, can those “in love” avoid tragedy? By the simple expedient of testing their loyalty to one another. The wife who thinks her husband in constant need of criticism and correction, and habitually sides against him when he is in a controversy, may be a helpful partner, but she does not know the meaning<of love. The husband who rebukes his wife, and compares her with other women in order to illustrate his criticisms, he doesn’t love her. may be “loyal’’ to her but If it sees faults, it isn’t love: if it criticizes, it isn’t love. Those who take one another for better or worse, with the hope and intention of correcting one another's faults later, are doomed before their venture begins. Where love is, there are no faults; the loved one is in all ways per- fect—always correct—always right. “Whatever the loved one does is right because he does it, and love becomes his blind partisan as naturally as the jungle creature defends her young. Until blind love comes, there is,no love; and those who mate without blindness are tricking themselves and one another. (Copyright, 1929.) distinction of being one of the “safest cities” of the United States in regard to automobile fatalities. The rate last year is said to have been 14.1 per 100,- 000 of the population; end while there is ground for satisfaction in this show- ing, the sifuation is not one sebout which the city should be proud. It is true that, compared with the State or even with the Nation as a whole, the Philadelphia record might be worse. But the number of deaths directly due to careless and in- competent driving is far greater than it would be if existing laws were more rigidly enforced and the penalties for their violation invariably applied. There are not enough police to do this, but it would help matters if those we have were made to realize that the public safety demands the enforcement of traffic laws as well as of other enact- ments for public protection. PANTS FOR ASIATICS. Pants have come to the Near* East, observes the Chicago Tribune. In Tur- key young idealists have deposed, the antipant regime, and the bloomered sultans and red fezzes are stored away somewhere forever. In ‘Persia pants have spread like wildfire from Tabriz to Teheran, and though the priests still make a strong resistance, the govern- ment has decreed pants now and for- ever after New Year's day. “Allah wore no pants,” the clergy still insist. “Why should we wear them?” But the new Near East is leaving Allah out of breath. The shift'of Asia toward pants will have reverberations in America. AS5 a market for used trousers Persia, Turkey and Afghanistan have potentialities. At least a hundred million second-hand Pants can be exported from American annually, and with this item to take up slack, the pants turnover in this country can be considerably acceler- ated. Dealers in American trousers will welcome foreign markets. The absorp- tion of the surplus crop makes all the difference. Pants designed on the model of a Persian rug will no doubt be our tailors’ next innovation, and at that there may be some advantages. In any case the internationalization of trousers will proceed apace, Though 50,000,000 peo- ple in America know nothing of their advantages, and 300,000,000 people in/’ the world wear no clothes at all, there will be progress. But all is relative; while derby hats and trousers sweep the | Near East in a tide of modernism, at home they are under fire. The torch is carried on. New clothes for Western men wait in the mists of prophecy, where neither pants nor derby hats nor vests shall have authority. THE VANISHING ART. Perhaps no great loss of polished utterance is suffered through the fall- ing off in the market of personal writ- ing paper from $15,000,000 to $10,000,000 @ year, says the New York Herald Tri- bune. The quality of average long- hand correspondence may even be im- proving, for in these days one who is put.to the pains of old-fashioned com- position is likely to have a pride of performance in an event so unusual. The personal letter in the author's own hand, excepting de rigueur notes of social amenity, is being outmoded, it seems, by the ease of dictation and the short cuts of telegraph and tele- phone. Only an aging remnant retains a sort of quill-pen conscience that the typewriter can not wholly deaden. Even today some college boys are familiar with the handwriting of their fathers. The content of most personal letters in the age of speed is starkly communi- cative af&td nothing more. A contribu- tor to one of the superior British re- views has said that he can not remem- ber ever to have received a well writ- ten, infommative or Witty letter in his life. He does not mention whether he remembers ever to have penned one. The decline in volume of hand-written correspondence is probably no subtrac- tion at all from the general fund of culture. Letter writing as a classic art, of course, is quite unrelated to the obso- lescence of personal script noted by the paper manufacturers. The letters of Katherine Mansfield, for example, attest that the flame of epistolary genius has not been quenched. ‘LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. Another Quota Basis Suggested.

To the Editor of The Post—Sir: The present unjust intangible tax works as fJollows: 1. An heirloom worth $500 is left, “| or given during life, and $2.50 annually is paid, though it wouldn’t be sold and is nonproductive. 2. A Government employe is retired on $1,000 maximum and through thrift and extra work accumulated taz- able securities worth $10,000 yielding 5 per cent, making total income $1,500, little enough for two to live on with $40 apartment rent, yet he is taxed $50. Let's hope he never will require medi- cal attention. . 3. A widow with two children is left $20,000 of such securities (cash from insurance is also taxed), at 5 per cent yielding $1,000, and $5,000 nontncome securities. After the District annual tax of $125 she is left $875. Here the tax is 12% per cent of income, 4. A family in Pennsylvania lives on. $2,500 annually, being 5 per cent on $50,000 securities, having also $20,000 of\nonincome securities, all left to him because of his being a helpless invalid. The four mills State tax on income would be but $10, but even more than that is exempt. The District of Colum- | bia tax would be $350, reducing the in- come to $2,150, and amounts to 14 per cent of income, downright confiscation, This invalid has to dispose of holdings to meet his needa, from time to time— not a pleasant prospect. no insurance. Lucky he is not hero. 5. The real estate tax,educates chil- dren through high school; removes ashes, garbage, trash, and sewage; delivers water, and furnishes fre and police protection and hospitalization, What is given for the intangible tax? Our senators and congressmen have surely overlooked the above, and can right an injustice by framing a reason- able income-tax law patterned after either the national law or that of Penn- sylvania or New York, dc. As a very poor alternative, the intangible tax suould have proper exemptions, dfter which it should be graduated, beginning with 1 mill, Surely a % per cent intangible tas would be Justified only in war time, and then only on securities earning not less than 6 per cent, in which event it would be an 8 1-3 per cent tax on income, aud far more i unproduc- tive securities are inciuded, Surely toe present tax loses many desirabie Citizus to tne District of Columbia. MRS. J. W. SMITH. Modern Witchcraft. Louisville Courier-Journal: Thiee hundred years ago if an old Salem woman had predicted that Massachu- setts folks would be carrying on con- versations with others in the Antarctis, with no more trouble than if they had been in the same room, she would have been burned as a witch. There still re- main those who would serve in the same fashion, some who cry for an abandonment of a few of our t- day antiquated scientific and religious theories and superstitions.

CHAPTER XVI. B= knew that “morning,” in the vocabulary of the Lido, could not possibly be construed as meaning anything earlier than the languid interval between cocktails and lunch, or the still more torpid stretch of time separating the process of di- gestion from the first afternoon bath. All his energies were bent on getting the Wheaters to fix on one or the other of these parentheses as the most suitable in which to examine the question of their children’s future; and he accounted himself lucky when they finally agreed to meet him in a quiet corner of the hotel lounge before luncheon. Unfortunately for this plan, no cor- ner of the lounge—or of its adjacent terraces—could be described as quiet at that particular hour. The whole population of the “Palace” was throng- ing back through its portals in quest of food and drink. Hardly had Boyne settled Mr. and Mrs. Wheater in their fathomless armchairs (his only hope of keeping them there lay in the dif- ficulty of getting up in a hurry) when Lady Wrench drifted by, polishing her nails with a small tortoise shell im- plement, and humming a negro cpir- itual in her hoarse falsetto. “Goodness—what are you people doing over here, plotting together in a corner? Look as if you were rehears- ing for a film * * *” She stopped, wide-eyed, impudent, fundamentally indifferent to everything less successful than her own success. “7 don’t know what we are doing,” Joyce returned with a touch of irri- tability. “Martin seems to think he ought to tell us how to bring up the children.” It obviously seemed pre- posterous to her that Zinnie Wrench should be idling about, polishing her nails and humming tunes, while this severe mental effort was exacted of one who, the night before, had been up as late, and danced as hard, as the other. “Gemething’s got to be decided,” Wheater growled uncertainly. “Oh, well—so long,” smiled Lady Wrench. “I’m off to see Mendip’s new tent; the one he’s just got over from: where is.it? Morocco, I guess he said. But isn’t that a sort of leather? Some- where in South Africa, anyhow. . . They're just rigging it up. It’s @ wonder.” “A new tent?” Joyce’s face lit up with curlosity, and the scattered desire to participate in everything that was “Yes: absolutely different from any- thing you've ever seen. The very last thing. Sort of black Cubist designs on it. Might give Anastase ideas for a bath-wrap. Hullo, Gerald—that you? I’ve been looking for you everywhere; thought you'd got drowned. Come elong and see Mendip’s tent.” Joyce raised a deteining hand. “Gerald—Mr. Ormond! Please, I want you to stay here. We're discussing something about which I may need your advice.” “Oh, look here, Joyce, I say——” her husband interrupted. Hig wife gave him a glance of ag- grieved dignity. “You don’t want me to be without advice, I suppose? You've got Martin's.” Wheater groaned: “This isn't going to be a prize fight, is it?” “Tl don’t know. It might. Sit down, please Gerald.” Mrs. Wheater indi- cated an armchair beside her own, and Ormerod reluctantly buried his long limbs in it. “In this heat——” he murmured. “Oh, well, slong,” cried Lady Wrench, eve in seen Mendip’s new tent?” Mrs. Lullmer, exquisite, fadeless, her scant bathing tights inadequately supplemented by a transparent orange scarf, paused in a plastic attitude before the besieged couple. “Do let’s rush down and take @ look at it before cocktails. Come on, Cliffe.” Mrs. Wheater drew her lips together, and a slow wave of crimson rose to her husband's perspiring temples. ‘See here, Syb; we're talking busi- “Business?” dnstantly Mrs. Lullmer’s vaporous face:became as sharp-edged as @ Cameo, and her eyes narrowed into two observation : ts. “Been put on to something good, have you? I’m ever- lastingly broke. For God's sake tell me!” she implored. Wheater laughed. “No. We're only trying to settle about the children.” “The children? Do you mean to say you're talking about them still? That reminds me—where’s my own child? Pixie, pet! Ah, there she is. Darling, nip up to my room, will you, and get Mummy one of those new lipsticks: no, not Baiser Defenduu sweet, but Nouveau Peche—you know, the one that fits into the gold bag the duke gave me yester- day.” An ethereal sprite, with a pre- Raphaelite bush of fair hair, and a tiny sunburnt body, detached herself from a romp with a lift boy to spring away at her mother’s behest. “Pixie’s such a dariing—always does just as I tell her. If only my poor Doll had listened to me!” Mrs. Lullmer observed to Boyne, with a retrospective sigh which implied that the unhappy fate of her eldest daughter had been the direct result of resistance to the maternal counsels. “Well—as I was saying——” Boyne began again, nervously. ... “Sut a fresh stream of bathers, re- inforced by a troop of arrivals from Venice who had steamsd over to the Lido for lunch, closed in vociferously about the Wheaters, and at the same instant the big clock on the wall rang out the stroke of one. “See here. old Martin—this fs no time for business, is it? I believe Joyce has asked half of these people to lunch,” Wheater confessed to his friend with a Shame-faced shrug. “But afterward—” “All right. Afterward.” Lunch was over; the Duke’r tent had been visited; and one by one the crowd porating. “Joyce—Cliffe! Look here: have you in restaurant and grill-room had dis- persed for bathing or bridge. “Why not here?” Boyne suggested pa- tiently to Mrs. Wheater. “Here?” She paused under the lifted flap of the stately Moroccan tent, her astonishingly youthful figure outlined against the glitter of the sands. “Why not?” Boyne persisted. “It’s cool and quiet, and nobody ts likely to bother us. Why shouldn't you and Cliffe go into this question with me now?” She wavered, irresolute. ‘“Where’s Cliffe, to begin with? Oh, out there— under Syb’s umbrella, of course. I’m perfectly willing, naturally “ “Very well; I’ll go and recruit him.” Boyne threaded his way between the prone groups on the beach to where Mrs. Lullmer lay, under the shadow of a huge orange-colored umbrella, with Cliffe Wheater outspread beside her like a raised map of a mountainous country. “I say, Cliffe, Joyce is waiting for you in the Duke’s tent—for our talk.” Wheater raised a portion of his great bulk on * languid elbow. “What talk? . « + Qh, all right.” His tone im- plied that, at the moment, it was dis- tinctly all wrong; but he got slowly to his feet, gave himself a shake, lit a cigarette, and shambled away after Boyne. At the tent door Mrs. Lullmer swiftly overtook them. “I suppose you don’t mind——” she smiled at Joyce; and Wheater muttered, half to his wife and half to Boyne: “She’s had so much experience with children.” “All I wa.t is what is best for mine,” said Mrs. Wheater coldly; adding, as they reentered the tent: “Martin, you'll find Gerald somewhere about. Won't you please tell him to come?’’ Wheater gave an angry shrug, and then settled down resignedly on one of the heaps of embroidered - Moroccan cushions disposed about’ the interior of the tent. Boyne’s first inclination was ‘o come back empty-handed from a simulated quest for Ormerod; but, se- flecting that *f he did so Joyce would seize on this as another pretext for post- ponement, he presently returned ac- companied by the tutor, in whose wake Lady Wrench trailed her perfumed elegance. “See here, folks, I guess if anybody’s got a right to be here I have,” she announced with a regil suavity. “That is, if you’re proposing to make plans about my child.” This argument seemed—even to Boyne — incontrovertible; and Lady Wrench sank down upon her cushions with a smile of triumph.

CAUSE OF AINTING. D. I. writes: Will you devote a few lines to the cause of fainting? ® What takes place when a person fa‘nts? Is there any way to stop the habit of ‘“‘going out”? REPLY. Fainting is caused by an acute ane- mia of the brain. Sounds very serious, but it is not. The brain can get along for a very few minutes with a very scanty supply of blood. The cause of the acute anemia is generally a very sharp drop in blood pressure. The pres- sure falls gradually until it gets to about a certain level; then:it drops rap- idly. In simple cases of fainting the fall in blood pressure stops at a certain level, hangs there for a few seconds or minutes, and then begins to climb to the original level. The other symptoms of fainting are loss of consciousness, pallor of the face and disappearance of the wrist pulse. The loss of consciousness is generally preceded by a slight giddiness and things become dark. If .there are any other sensations, such as noises and fiashes of light, the fainting should be investigated further. Symptoms of this class are apt to mean epilepsy rather than simple fainting. In very severe hemorrhage the blood pressure drops until fainting occurs. This causes the heart beat to lose its force. The combination of low blood pressure and weak heart beat is of great service in stopping the hemorrhage. Un- der these circumstances fainting often saves life. If, however, the blood pres- sure does not rise after a brief “low” during the fainting, but continues to fall, sudden death is liable to occur. If fainting occurs in the water while swimming or while in the bathtub, drowning is apt to occur. And finally, as to the cause of faint- ing. Any shock—physical, mental or emotional—mey be the cause. As has already been said, hemorrhage may be a cause. Unconsciousness due to a stroke, to epilepsy, or to drugs sheuld not be classed as fainting. There is no such thing as “the habit of fainting” in a healthy person. If a person is in the habit of fainting and is otherwise normal, the disorder is protmbly a man- ifestation of hysteria. If the eyelids tremble or there is reaction to a pin prick, or other evidence that uncon- sciousness is simulated, hysteria is the cause. The person has some end to at- tain and is using the spells as a means thereto. In epileptic unconsciousness there is apt to be some biting of the tongue, some foaming at the mouth, some con- vulsions, and the face flushed. OLIVE OIL AS A FATTENER. Mrs. G. writes: I have been told to take olive oil to help gain flesh, but it seems to constipate me. Should it do this? Should it be taken before or after meals? REPLY. Eating olive oil will not cause consti- pation. Look for another cause. Take the oil on your food and as a part of your diet. Eat as much as you can. As a rule, olive oil fails as a fat- tener because of the difficulty in eat- ing enough of it. | Ss | THe SAVOY- PLAZA ‘NEW , YORK Henry A. Rost, President) OFFERS.

MODERN WARE- HOUSES By A. W. KOEHLER, * Secretary, National Conference on Street and Highway Safety. (The following is the third of a series of special articles dealing with a Na- tion-wide effort to promote traffic safety and reduce the chaos which has been produced by lack of uniform and sctentific laws governing the operation ¢ of motor vehicles.) Reckless, inattentive and incompe- s tent driving of motor vehicles is costing Many thousands of lives annually in the @ United States, the nore or less serious injury of half a million people and property damage estimated at hundreds ,” of millions of dollars. Motor vehicle law has a major purpose—safeguarding life and property by the. regulation, discipline and education of operators. The national conference on street and highway safety consequently regarded the drivers’ license act as the one pro- viding its proposed uniform code for States with teeth. A drivers’ license law, with examina- @ tion of new drivers, properly adminis- tered by a centialized department (that » of the State vehicle commissioner or de- partment, created by the first act of the uniform cod?) may be expected to have ,s? ® material effect on motor vehicle fa- talities. The seriousness of the traffic problem is shown in the fact that even in the States that have gone furthest toward a solution of the problem, traf- fic fatalities are still on the increase. Nevertheless, as compared with States not having a license law with manda- tory examination, those having such & law show a 20 per cent better showing since the passage of the law, according to a study made by statisticians of the » National. Safety Council. Ideal Regulations Cited. Such a law was the ideal of the na- tional conference and in a framework constructed for the benefit and guid- ance of the States the following salient points are found: No person shall drive a motor vehicle on a highway unless licensed by the Btate vehicle department, except those 4 driving road or farm machinery or op- erating an official vehicle of the United » States Army or Navy. Nonresidents over 16, licensed at home, are exempt; if coming from a monlicense State, they may drive their own cars for 30 days. License is not issued to persons un- der 16, or chauffeurs’ licenses to per- sons under 18; nor to habitual drunk- ards, drug addicts, the insane or feeble- minded, those unable to understand signs in English, and those afflicted with such physical or mental disability or as to prevent reasonable con- » trol over a motor vehicle. _ When the law is first enacted, all per- @® sons who have driven for one year without an unfavorable record may podtain a license within three months on written application, but without ex- amination. Thereafter every new driver must first obtain a temporary instruc- tion permit; good for a limited period when accompanied by a licensed opera- tor; then, within 60 days, fill out an application for license and pass the ex- Amination, which includes a brief oral test on the rules of the road and a Gemonstration of driving ability. Specifications for Relicensing. The commissioner may require re- licensing not more than once every three years. Chauffeurs’ licenses must » be renewed annually.

Officials of the Capital Traction Co. at the Seventh street car barns, where Rabil went to investigate, declared that the street car must have been started by a passerby familiar with its operation. The car had been brought out in front of the Seventh street car barns shortly after 4 o’clock, ready to make the first run in the morning. While the two car barn employes brought up the second car it was stil] there, but disappeared while they went into the barns for the third car. The forward and reverse switch on the street car was set at a neutral po- sition, the officials stated, and had to be moved before the street car could be put into motion. Most persons are unfamiliar with thig detail of opera- tion, they said. Gauge of Individual Roles Will Be Decided; Finals of Contest Tonight.

The old adage that too many cooks spoil the broth does not appear to hold good with the Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra and its variety of leaders, since the illness of Leopold Stokowsk! forced a series of guest conductors to take charge of its concerts for the most part this season. Yesterday’s concert by the famous Philadelphia aggregation was led by Eugene Goossens, guest conductor. Mr. Goossens handled the musicians with a masterly hand and succeeded in win- ning outstanding results from them by the vigorous and scholarly use of his baton. The ensemble produced tonal son- ority, clarity of execution and real deli- cacy of nuance in Beethoven's lovely “Symphony No.8 in F.” Its four move- ments each had an individual beauty all its own and Mr. Goossens read the score with the sure familiarity of one thoroughly acquainted with all the secrets of the Beethoven tradition. The familiar “Der Freischutz” over- ture by Weber, with which the concert opened, was well rendered, with spirit and clever interpretation. After the intermission, the orchestra charmed the audience again with “Three Dances” from the ballet, “The Three-Cornered Hat,” by De Fella. The sprightly meas- ure and the merry themes of this com- position had seldom been heard in Washington and were all the more wel- come on account of that iact. po T.

Changes in the method of assessing @d valorem tariff rates on the value of imported articles on the ground that the foreign valuations now used frequently fluctuate widely and work to the detriment of American indus- tries were suggested to the House ways and means committee yesterday at hearings on the administration provi- sions of the law. Use of American valuation as a rate base on iron and steel articles bearing ad valorem duties was proposed by Thomas J. Doherty, of the American Iron and Steel Institute. This method of valuation proposed by the House six years ago but rejected in the Sen- ate, would be based on the price at which the domestic article, comparable with the imported product, is sold at wholesale in this country. Should the committee not see fit to adopt the American valuation, Doherty said, higher duties should be assessed against consi goods or those shipped to the United States for other than outright purchase. Recalling the rejection of this meth- - ©d six years ago, Representative Bacha- + 7 x . > , : » a , Tach (Republican), New Jersey, who will head the subcommittee on the metals schedule in the preparation of new rates, said a change to American valuation would necessitate the rewrit- ing of the entire metals duties. Since this schedule contains 3,000 items alone and there are fifteen schedules in the act, he said, it would take the committee all summer to prepare a bill on the American valuation basis. 14,000 Millionaires In U.

STEEL STUCK Common Issue to Be Raised to $1,250,000,000 Should Stockholders Concur. BONDS TO BE REFUNDED New York, Feb. 26 (A.P.).—Common stock of the United States Steel Cor- poration today was ordered increased to $1,250,000,000, from $753,321,000 ($100 par), by the board of directors, subject to approval of stockholders at the an- nual meeting on April 15. Common stockholders will receive the right to subscribe for adcitional shares. The proceeds will be used to retire the company’s funded debt of $134,830,000 in 50-year & per cent gold bonds of 1951, at $115 and $136, $555,000 in 10 to 60 year 5 per cent bonds of 1963, at $110. The retirement of both bond issues will result in a saving of $29,247,350 annually in fixed charges. Terms and Ratio Later, ‘ The amount of common stock to be issued, the ratio to present holdings and the price, terms and dates of pay- ments will be fixed later. The unissued stock will be used for future corporate purposes, but no issue other than that for debt retirement and for employe stock subscriptions is contemplated at this time, it was announced. The increase in common stock is the first since 1927, when in April a 40 per cent stock dividend was paid, and the second since organization of the com- pany. President James A. Farrell said present conditions in the steel industry pointed to satisfactory operations for the company for months ahead. Plants, he said, were operating practically at ca- pacity and prices were on a reasonably satisfactory basis. Directors also recommended to stock- holders a revision in the corporation's employes’. stock subscription plan to give directors the option of issuing shares to be offered to employes or buy- ing the stock in the open market. Taylor Receives Credit. Myron C. Taylor, chairman of the corporations finance committee, is credited with formulating the plan adopted today for redemption of the funded debt. Recent heavy buying of United States Steel stock has been in anticipation of this step. The common today ran up to nearly 191, less than 2 under the record price, but later slipped back to close under $189 on rumors action on increasing the common stock would be deferred. The closing was $2.50 under Monday's ggure. ‘ Cc. H. Farnham, Author, Dies.

Tompkins Company Orders Them to Inform Workers. ROW IS JURISDICTIONAL Abandonment of a sympathetic strike by members of thirteen Capital labor unions, employed on building projects of the Charlies H. Tompkins Co., con- struction engineers, was required in a temporary injunction awarded by Jus- tice Jennings Batley in the District Supreme Court yesterday to the Dahl- strom Metallic Door Co., of Jamestown, N. Y. Besides the thirteen unions, the Washington Building Trades Council ano 40 individuals, officials of the unions, were named defendants in the injunction suit, which arose out of a jurisdiction dispute « er which of three local unions should install door jams on a building under construction by the Tompkins Co at Fourteenth and K streets northwest. The dispute was not settled and workmen on the building called a sym- pathy strike, which for the last two weeks has affected all building projects of the company in the Capital. The suit for the injunction was instituted Feb- ruary 12. a few days after the strike w . called. By the terms of the injunction, the unions were required to call off the strike pending a final hearing of the case by the court and the door com- pany was ordered to post a bond of $2,500. Justice Bailey directed a mandatory injunction against the union, the building trades council and the indi- viduals, directing their agents to pre- pare and deliver within three days to union workmen employed by the con- struction company and its subcontract- ors’ notification voiding the strike and advising them they are at liberty to re- turn to their work, if so desirous, with- out penalty by the organization. The defendants were ordered to report in writing execution of the mandatory order. tintin WEDNESDAY, FFEBRDARY 27, .1929. ee. ae ee ee — | VISITS CAPITAL | DR.

Further inquiry into the distribution of Federal patronage was ordered yes- terday by the Senate and Chairman Brookhart, of the investigating commit- tee, announced that new work would be undertaken by the committee during the approaching recess. The committee now has power to ex- amine into all patronage cases, in addi- tion to postmasters, and the chairman indicated that the inquiry might be turned from the South into some Northern States. Complaints have been received re- garding the manner of disposing of patronage in some Northern States. Senator Brookhart said, but he would not reveal details of the charges or names of the States. So far the committee has confined its work to charges of selling postmas- terships in the Southern States by members of the Republican organiza- tion. The committee now can inquire into all Federal offices. Before renewing the investigation on a broad scope, the committee! will hear R. B. Creager, Republican national com- mitteeman from Texas, tomorrow. Crea- ger has asked opportunity to answer charges made before the committee that he protected hotels from dry raiders and that the Republican organization of his State collected contributions from postmasters. Brookhart already has placed the re- sults of the committee’s work before Herbert Hoover with a recommendation that the referee system of settling patronage questions, generally used in the South, be abandoned. : ————————_{_—_— == is president of the Antisaloon League of Southern California, president of the trustees of Occidental College and a director of San Francisco Theological Seminary.

A Riietcksble Endorsement of the New Packard Eights By the World’s Most Discriminating Market ’ ” ” CCORDING to the official registrations, more new Packards were delivered to purchasers in New York County during October, November:and December, 1928, than any other make except Ford. Thus did the world’s most discriminating motor car market place its unqualified approval upon the new Packard Eights. There would be enough glory and recommendation for Packard if it had led only those cars in its own price class ..»- which it does and has done for many years. But this record was made in competition with cars priced from $500 to $2000 less than the average Packard. There can be but one reason for this ‘astonishing success. Packards are purchased on their economic worth—their dollar value, as represented by greater satisfaction, longer life and low maintenance costs. If you would like to know more about the many supe- riorities of Packard manufacture and the advantages of Packard ownership, we will welcome an opportunity to demonstrate them fully. Just call at our salesrooms or, if you prefer, telephone us and we will bring a Packard Eight to your door. rd + gv If you desire to buy out of income, you will find the Packard Payment Plan most attractive. Many take possession of their new cars without any cash outlay—and with the small monthly payments made smaller be- cause the used car allowance exceeds the down payment ‘on the new car.

A SS eesti esetesapss-ss>~Stlsssste-lS SRS tn Bridge Play By Experts - Is Explained Interesting Situations Are * Developed by Whitehead and Work in Game With Rutter and Miss Shelby - Held Over WRC. Several interesting situations were Brought up in the sixteenth of this season's radio bridge games broadcast yesterday from Station WRC, in which Miss Annie Blanche Shelby, of Port- land, Oreg., and R. L. Rutter, of Spok- ane, Wash., were the guest players. Mr. Rutter, dealer in the South, opened the auction with one No Trump on. Spades, A, Q; Hearts A, 9, 5; Dia- 'monds, Q, 10; Clubs. A, Q, J, 10, 6, 5. —_—_— Sa oteeneetnenaneannaee THE WASHINGT RADIO PROGRAMS | WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 27. LOCAL STATIONS, (Eastern Standard Time.) N AA—Arlington. Though he held long and strong Clubs, his was so strong in high cards that he feared a Club would be left in. As fige-odd at Clubs are necessery for me, and only three at No Trump, Rutter preferred the No Trump as an initial bid. Although he did mot have Diamonds stopped in his own hand, so insignificant a Diamond hglding by his partner as Jack and t¥o small would go a iong way to- ward producing a No Trump game. Mr. Rutter properly did not allow his high honor count at Clubs to prevent him from bidding the suit at which there seemed the better chance for game. Miss Shelby, West, also held a No Thump—Spades, K, J, 10, 9, 2; Hearts, @ J, 6; Diamonds, A, K, J; Clubs, 9, 2. Her hand was not strong enough wo peas in the hope of defeating the adverse bid. Neither did it seem that by bidding she would drive the ad- versaries to a suit bid at which they could make game. Her choice of a declaration lay between two Spades and an informatory double. Whether it: was better for her to show her five- card Major or general strength was a clese question. A double might bring @* Heart response from her partner om four weak Hearts, while Miss Shelby herself had only three headed by Queen-Jack. In such case she probd- ably would be better off bidding het Spades, if her partner had only three. However, Miss Shelby decided on the double, as she fig she had about chance of gain with either of two possible declarations. Mr. Work. North, held: Spades, 5, 4, 8; Hearts, K, 8; Diamonds, 9,8,5,3,2; Clubs, K. 8, 7. He passed. Mr, Whitehead, in the East, responded to his partner’s double with two Hearts on: Spades, 8, 7, 6; Hearts, 10, 7, 4, 3, 2; Diamonds, 7, 6, 4; Clubs, 4, 3. . Rutter, South, with a single stop- per in Hearts, and with strength lying over him, as shown by Miss Shelby’s double, then bid three Clubs. With a Heart opening at No Trumps, and with h in Spades and Diamonds pre- sumably in Miss Shelby’s, West's, hand. . Rutter realized that game at No ps wes not probable. While game ae Clubs was equally problematical, stil! a jal score at Clubs, with a high count, was preferable to a score of game at No Trump. Siice Shelby was unable to go on with her partner's Hearts unless he could show her, by a rebid, that his response to.her double was made with more than four g6mall Hearts. Therefore she passed, as did Mr. Work and Mr. Whitehead My. Rutter, therefore, played the hand at three Clubs. Shelby, West, opened the play her King of Diamonds. Mr. Work, hand, switched to her partner's Heart siwjt, leading her Queen through Dum- s King. Dummy played the King: ‘Mr. Whitehead the 2, and Declarer the 5. Dummy led the 3 of Diamonds, it cldrer’s two hands. Mr. Whitehead played the 6 of Diamonds; Declarer the Queen; Miss Shelby the Ace. ss Shelby, marking Declarer as hoiding the Ace of Hearts, and realizing Dummy could trump the third ro of Hearts, led a trump, the 2 of Clubs, to reduce Dummy’s ruffing possi- bilities. Dummy played the 7 of Clubs; Whitehead the 3; Declarer the 5 Dummy then led the 5 of Diamonds; Mt. Whitehead played the 7; Declarer .trumped high with the 10 of Clubs; Miss Shelby played the Jack of Dia- monds. Thus two good Diamonds were established in Dummy’s hand. Deciarer then led the Ace of Clubs, to draw the two outstanding ps before discarding his losers on Dummy’s Diamonds. Miss Shelby play- ed the 9 of Clubs; Dummy the 8; Mr. Whitehead the 4._ Declarer then led the 6 of Clubs, as the simplest way to put | yin. Miss Shelby discarded the 8 ef Spades; Dummy played the King of Clubs; Mr. Whitehead discarded the 3 of Dummy then led, in turn, the 9 and 8 of Diamonds, on which De- clearer threw off the 9 of Hearts and the Queen of Spades. Declarer was then left with nothing in his own hand but truimps and t side Aces, which were for all the rest of the tricks. Mr. utter therefore made five-odd,. game at Clubs, with a score of 30 points for tricks and 90 for honors. My. Work described the Contract bid- ding of this hand as quite different from its Auction bidding. South, de- ciding between .Clubs and No Trum on the original call, would decide on the No Trump, for the reasons already given. But the Contract South would have to decide whether to bid one, two, or three South's hand, valued on the basis of coynting Ace ¢, King 3, Queen 2, 1, and two Teng 1, totals 20. The gen- erally accepted theory is that a Dealer in Contract should bid one No Trump when his hand counts 13 with three sults cos ge two No. Trumps witb 17, four 6 stopped, and three No Trumps with 21, and, of course, four quits stopped. But without the Dia- monds stopped, it is doubtful whether th should bid even as high as two were it not for the follow- n: No Trumps to three, the ‘fa count of 6. To jump from one to two, the minimum count er must have is 9. Thus it might that North, with a count of 6, 7, or 8, would pass one No Trump when there should be game in the combined hands. ye Jack and two sma!! Diamonds and of Clubs in North's hand (a count ufficient; but to risk three, having every sult stopped, be prudent. yzing the hand in this way, Mr. that he believed this to be with which a compro- advisable, and a bid of (435 Meters. 6D Kilocycies.) 10:05 a m., 3:45 and 10:05 p. m.— Weather reports.

What they lacked in height they made up in skill. Of a)! Indian tribes ‘ir. Bouth America they were 'ne leaders. The weaving of the Incas was the best in either North o: South America. Using cotton or wool cut from the long- haired alpaca, they made cloth bags, ponchos (or shirts), belts, shawls and robes. Picture of an Inca house hased on clay model found in Peru. Work baskets have been found in the graves of Inca women. They contain needles made from thorns and also from copper, along with balls of thread. Some of the baskets contain dolls which had not been finished when the women died. We may imagine an Inca mother making a cloth dol! for her little girl—a deed which was to be her last on earth. In the warmer parts of the Inca em- pire, the people usually itvec in low wooden huts. Sometimes the walls were coated with mud The roofs were formed of thatched grass or of matted reeds. In cold districts the walls of houses were commonly built of stone. There were also adobe huts tn Inca Land. Adobe is mud dried in the sun. It still forms the walls of many Indian homes tn Mexico and the southwestern part of the United States. If you were to make a trip to Peru you would be able to find hridges built by the Inca Indians. Thess: bridges date back from 400 to 1.000 years. They may be called hanging bridges, for they hang from high banks at either side of rivers and streams. They are built of branches held in place by long vines or braided strips of bark. That may. sound as though the bridges were weak, but they are really | strong. Scores of them are still in use. Loaded mules have passed safely over some Inca bridges. Unele, Tomorro .—‘iods and religion. (Copyright, 1929.)

Which is by the way of leading up to the fact that velvet nighties have not only been thought of, but made up and introduced to a breathlessly waiting world. Not that we don’t approve of the ideal We think it’s a swell idea, if you will forgive the langwidge, but our sense of humor Insists on dwelling on the thought that it’s a grand break (what ever happened to our vocabulary today, anyway?) for lady sleep-walk- ers!

Well, now, that’s friendly even if a bit presumptious, and I accept the appellation in the lively, youthful spirit in which it is bestowed. Yes, I am asking my young readers to write me with or without their signatures about the social and moral conditions which prevail in their communities; about their temptations with reference to liquor, the experi- ences in dancing parties and their con- tacts with life all around them, I am also asking them to tell me all the good things they do and know about. But to you who claim to admire my work and slap me on my Dack 60 heartily I most respectfully ask x to read me a little more carefully. I have never questioned high schools or their pupils, and I have reason to believe I never will. You should distinguish be- tween the conduct in a high school] .nd the affairs of boys and girls when out- side of school in the jurisdiction of their parents. The boys and girls of a city do not belong to sa school. The school is not a parent. Surely it can hardly be expected to supervise a night club or the pupils who attend one.

THE WASHINGTON POST: WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1929. A WHO IS RESPONSIBLE? FOR JUVENILE CRIME (9) RIMINAL statistics show that the number of youthful lawbreakers has grown amazingly---who is primanily answet- able for their guilt? Parents, think it over! Are you giving your children the proper moral, spiritual and religious training at home? Are you sending them to Church, Sunday School or Synagogue, whatever the denomination of your belief? - — Calvary Baptist Church WM. S.

Dear Sirs, Arty ix 8 ¢ aise I have learned of the plan you have under way for publishing through thirty cone 4 secutive weeks, a series of full page editorials on the moral training of our youth.

Home training that makes for good citizenship is lamentably lacking today. I believe your series of editorials will prove to be a valuable contribution. Sey aug Let me heartily commend your efforts. 1 sincerely hope that the articles may have a wide reading. f - oo * - re ¢ ~ - 2 — ee ee — a ~* ; ar Herewith are reprinted a ae very truly, few of the many letters from the clergy of various denominations telling of their hearty support of the movement. Space alone prevents the publishing of all the letters we received. eed <= ; - : ' tt *- - - es, A, Beginning Saturday, March 2, the first of a series of full page weekly articles will appear in The Washington Post. These articles were written by Mr. P. B. Zevley, who is considered a national authority on youthful crime. Mr. Zevley has kept in constant touch with the penal institutions for juvenile crime throughout the nation, and a simple analysis of the statistics he has accumulated, form the basis of these articles. Their publication every Saturday has been made possible by a group of Washington’s pre-eminent 'civic-spirited citizens, whose names will appear beneath each article. This again proves Washington to be a community city, whose citizens are lending their utmost, unselfish support to build wholesome character in our youth of today---for, they are the citizens of tomorrow. ¥v BE SURE TO READ THESE ARTICLES EVERY SATURDAY 7. a The Washington Post.

Indica- tions pointed to fresh buying of corn for export, and there was talk going around that unofficial March reports would show farm reserve stocks of corn to be smaller than was the case a year ago. Closing quotations on corn were strong, 1% cents to 2% cents net higher. Wheat finished % oent to 1¥e cents up, oats % cent to % cent advanced, and provisions Varying from 2 cents decline to a rise of 15 cents. Activity of dealings, as well as an upward swing to prices. began to manifest itself in the corn pit almost from the start. Com- mission houses and individual speculators were persistent buyers, stimulated by expec- tation that the general thaw prevailing would check marketing of corn. Meanwhile, corn offerings to arrive in Chicago were hardly more than zero, and there was a de- cided falling off apparent in cern receipts at primary centers, today’s arrivals at the leading terminals*‘amounting to but 1,224,000 bushels, compared with 2,237,000 bushels a year ago. Moreover, belief was expressed in various quarters that the corn crop movement here- after would prove small. a good deal below that last year. On the other hand. some exporters in the Southwest were mentioned as taking all the corn they could get. and advices were received telling of excessive rains in north Argentina and of fears that picking of corn may be delayed. Trade gossip was also being circulated that corn is finding greater favor both for animal and human consumers in Burope, and especially so in poultry feeding, with prices higher than for low grade wheat. Under such circumstances. buying here of corn future deliveries continued unabated, and the mar- ket closed at the day's topmost level. Largely owing to corn strength, wheat ad- vanced after early declines that were asso- ciated with reports of improved crop con- ditions for domestic winter wheat. It noticed, however, that Liverpoo] wheat quo- tations failed to reflect much of yesterday’s setback here. Special attention was likewise given to a statement from a leading private crop authority that he expects severe losses to be shown in domestic winter wheat ter- ritory this season. and that flelds which are covered with ice will certainly suffer.

Mr. Rickard used to say that he liked to rub elbows with_rich men such as Mr. George Getz, of Chicago, Mr. Walter Chrysler, the automobile mag- nate and others too numerous to men- tion and too familiar to need mention. He said he had found that if a fellow rubbed up against the rich fellow long enough he was bound to rub some of the money off.them and onto himself. Hé was a sly man and he had or- ganized a grey-hound racing plant with the customary modified pari- mutuel betting facilities and an ornate gambling house on the order of the Casino at Monte Carlo, although not as substantial in the architectural sense, to catch the loose money. The price. of admission to the prize fight, even at the maximum of $25, was seen to be quite trivial compared to the money he could take from the new group of market millionaires and sub- millionaires by his gambling devices.

YOUNG (Staff Correspondent of The Post.) AMPA, Fla., Feb. 26.—President Clark C. Griffith, of the Nationals, today informed Jack Hayes by telegram that his hold out gestures must cease or Hayes will not play ball for the Washington Club this season and by way of emphasizing his action he ordered Ralph (Stuffy) Stewart to report next: Monday for infield duty instead of waiting for the final squad to arrive. The failure of Hayes to return his contract signed has nettled Griffith, who regards the former collegian as his outstanding second base candidate. Hayes expressed himself as dissatisfied with the Washington Club’s terms al- most immediately upon the receipt of his contract, but his action was not taken seriously in view of the fact that he had failed to make good in his trial last season. “I offered Hayes a raise of $1,000 and a bonus of $500 in case he landed the second base job or played in at least half of the gamés,” said Griffith. “I consider this liberal and it is my final offer. I have not heard from him for some time and I am ordering Stewart here so that Johnson will have a regular for the second base position.” Johnson Elated at Peculiar Style of Ad Liska. After watching Pitcher Ad Liska per- form in a pepper game at this morn- ing’s drill, Manager Waiter Johnson predicted that this youngster is almost sure to be of considerable help to the Nationals during the coming season. Johnson’s ideas are not predicated. on simply watching the submarine hurler in action, but from his own experience with a bat in his hand, for Walter did the hitting to the group of which Liska was a member and was continually baffied by Adolph’s underhand re- urns. “I never saw such a peculiar deliv- ery,” the Nat leader commented, “and if it is puzzling now when Liska is simply tossing the ball, I can imagine what it will be when he gets his arm in shape and really cuts loose. And the beauty of his style is that it is unique which means that opposin; bat- ters will never have an opportunity of practicing to cope with it.” Giants on Nats’ Mound Staff Take to Work With Will. With the rookie pitchers instructed to do no more than lob the ball no line, of course, may be had on their ability yet and Johnson’s comment was based merely on Liska’s peculiar form which shoots the ball at a batter from an entirely different direction from the offerings of other pitchers. The only favorable comment which may be made at this time is the spirit in which the lads go about their con- ditioning work and this is an exception. Jim Weaver, the man mountain, Bump Hadley, Bob Burke, Paul Hopkins Lioyd Brown, Archie Campbell and Guy Cantrell, along with Liska, all are show- in:ig plenty of pep and with the excep- tion of Burke, are powerfully built athletes. One thing is certain, the Nats are due to have a mound staff of giants this year. Ruel Reports and Outsmarts Hadley in Volley Ball Game. The volley ball garhe was .dded to the training routine this morning and this made the drill much easier, for it inserted an eleinent of play and com- petition which hade the boys toil and perspire in the hot sun without realiz- ing that they were actually work- ing. Muddy Ruel reported this morn- ing and captained one of the teams, outsmarting Hadley, leader of the other, by selecting “ll of the experienced play- ers and winning in a walk. Ruel reports that, while he did no throwing during the off season, he worked out in a gymnasium and went through all the motions, keeping his shoulder muscles from getting soft. He will be excused from heavy work and will, in fact, train like a pitcher rather than a catcher in the hope of being at top form by the time the season opens. Johnson told him this morning that he would not have to work in any of the exhibition games unless he wanted to occasionally’as part of his training program. Search Warrant Is Issued for Catcher Bolton on Carolina. A search warrant has been issued for Catcher Cliff Bolton, who was due to report with the first squad, but wno has- not yet shown up. His transpor- tation money was sent him but no word -has been received from him. As he lives in High Point, N.

Pitcher Paul McCullough, detained at home because of illness, is expected to show up here in time for tomorrow morning's work-out. Word has been received from Catcher Bennie Tate that he has been quaran- tined because his two children have had diphtheria.

HEARS NURMI CASE TODAY Wide Twists Ankle; Purjye to Try for Worlds’ Record Nurmi ana Edvin Wide, two- thirds of the visiting foot-racing delegation from northern Europe, both were literally out of the running to- night, the Pinn because of the disap- proval of the Amateur Athletic Union and the Swede in obedience to the dictates of a twisted ankle. With Wide thus on the shelf and Nurmi in enforced retirement pending the decision of the A. A. U. tomorrow on his application for reinstatement, the third member of the visiting triumvirate, King Purje, youthful Finn, found himself in great demand. It appeared likely that we would come to the rescue and provide the much sought interna- tional flavor for the legion meet, here tomorrow, running a mile and a half in an attempt to beat the world’s rec- ord set by Wide in 1927. Nurmi’s Defense Hinges on Letter He Says He Mailed. Nurmi will go on the carpet in his own defense at 5 o’clock tomorrow alfter- noon at the offices of the A. A. U. The registration committee of the Metro- politan association is to decide wheth- er to remove the suspension imposed when Nurmi failed to appear for the national championship. Nurmi’s defense hinges on a letter which he says he wrote and mailed the day before the meet giving notice of his withdrawal because of a _ cold which made it impossible for him to run in his true form. The Swedish schoolmaster, however, added another race to his schedule for the season by agreeing to meet Ray Conger, conqueror of Nurmi over the mile route, in a second “mile of the century” at the Knights of Columbus games in Madison Square Garden March : 16. Fields and Thompson Matched for March 25 Chicago, Feb. 26 (A.P.).—Jackie Fields, of Los Angeles, contender for the worlds welterweight championship, was matched tonight for a ten-round N* YORK, Feb. 26 (A.P.).—Paavo Almost the Naked Truth By JAMES S. COLLINS EW YORK, Feb. 26.—Although the best minds of the A. A..U. registration committee will at- tempt tomorrow to solve the mystery surrounding the nonappearance of Paavo Nurmi in the national indoor championships in Madison Square Ger- den last Saturday night, the real low- down of the case seems to be buried too deep for the diggers to reach it. The only tangible piece of evidence the committee has to work on is a letter which an A. A. U. office hand took to be a horoscope in sanscrit-or something of the sort, but which eventually turned out to be Nurmi’s official notification of his withdrawal, written in Finnish. The letter is dated February 22, the day before the meet, but the aforesaid office hand, not realizing the impor- tance of the postmark on the envelope, threw it away. Lacking the envelope, the committee is unable to determine whether Nurmi or Postmaster General New should be suspended because the letter failed to reach Secretary Dan Ferris’ office until the meet was history. A. A. U. Officiale Have Suspicion That Nurmi Was Sidestepping. Nurmi, himself, apparently is stand- ing on his constitutional right to refuse to testify on the ground that his testi- mony might tend to incriminate or de- grade him, because he has failed to come forward to explain more fully his withdrawal. A. A. U. officials have more than a sneaking suspicion that Nurmi’s “cold” was induced by reluctance to compete against his countryman, Purje, who an- nounced at the eleventh hour that he would give Nurmi battle in the 2-mile steeplechase. Under the circumstances, however, it is hard to see how they are going to scrape together ground enough on which to base a suspension of the Finn. About all the A. A. U. can do now is to take up something else im- mediately and make as much noise: as possible about it. Yankee Scouts Appear to Have Missed Guess on Two Rookies. If official averages mean anything, two samples of cream skimmed from the minor league fleld by Yankee scouts are decidedly sour.

The game was not listed un- til midway in the season when St. John’s started negotiations. George- town will meet the Annapolis Quintet next winter, however, it was stated at the Hilltop yesterday. With its campaign thus brought to a close, Georgetown has finished the hardest basket ball schedule ever un- dertaken by a Hilltop court representa- tive, Its record of thirteen victories against five defeats affords students, players and Coach Elmer Ripley not an inconsiderable degree of satisfaction.

TRACK HOP o— Decker : Team Has Threat in Berlinger Versatile Star May): Score in 4 Events in Intercollegiates. Horse Sexton Chief Hope of sep UR UCKY Hilltop Against Yale, Harvard, N. Y. U. HILE Metropolitan critics gen- erally are picking New York University as strongest of Georgetown's opponents for the indoor intercollegiate track and field cham- plonship which is to be decided Satur- day night in New York City, John D. O'Reilly, wise Hilltop mentor, will not be surprised if Pennsylvania furnishes powerful contention. Batney Berlinger, sensational Penn omore, is the source to which O'Reilly points as productive of the Red and Blue’s threat. And added to such a ntial point scorer as Berlinger, n will have Jack Montgomery, one of the best college milers in the East; Harold Lamberg. intercollegiate shot put champion two years ago; Lamoine yle, a dandy broad jumper, and last, but not least, Capt. James Stratton, a high jumper of no _ inconsiderable ability. Vv , O'Reilly recognizeg the fact that Georgetown will have no walkaway of the titular games, but at the same time he places great faith in his Hilltoppers and senticipates the meet confidently. Penn, he believes, is just as likely to be in the front running as New York U., or Marvard, Yale or Cornell, last year’s titie winner. Berlinger Threat in High Jump, Vedlt, Shot Put, Broad Jump. “The Georgetown coach is cognizant @f the ability of Berlinger to make it im@teresting for his opponents in four evente—high jump, pole vault, shot put and broad jump. Any team aye t. an athlete capable of sharing in the points in four gsvente must be reckoned with seriously. ’ Berlinger is good for at least six feet im the high jump; 13 feet in the pole seuatts 46 feet in the shot and 22 feet fa the broad jump. These estimates are conservative in view of Berlinger’s best »Georgetown has high hopes of its own all-round star, Leo Sexton, taking Berlinger’s measure in the high jump amd shot put. In the high jump Sex- ton already has done 6 feet 4 inches in ‘competition, while in the shot put he las bettered the existing indoor inter- te record of 48 feet 8 inches, set by his teammate, Dave Adelman, last year. Montgomery, Penn miler, should be somewhere near the lead at the finish lime, eccording to O'Reilly, while Lem- berg can not be eliminated from con- sideration in the shot put, although so far this winter he has not flashed the form that stamped him champion two years ago. New York U. Figured for 18 -Pointe by Gotham Critics. New York University, according to those who are loudly singing the Vio- lets’ ly ony will derive heavy scoring hil Edwards, lanky negro middle- po lg star; Nat Lerner and Joe Mickey, two milers; Sol Furth, hurdler and broad jumper, and Charles Smith, Metropolitan shot-put champion. Zdwards will run the mile Saturday night, and is favored to win. He turned in a 4m. 196 recently, beating the winning intercollegiate time of last Year by 1 second. Besides the mile, Edwards will run anchor on the Violet a-mile relay team, winner of the 1928 event. Gotham experts have figured N. Y. U. to register 18 points among Edwards, the 3-mile team, and Furth, who last winter scored 8 points with seconds in She hurdies and broad jump. Ordinarily the winning team, judg- tng from past performances, can cap- ture the trophy with between 22 and 25 points. Last year Cornell won with a totel of 21, one-half point more than | Racing Selections | HAVANA. ne Ste, Max Brick, Cutbugh. mn, Gymkhana, Golden Sun- 3—Topango, Jimma, Bucephalus. ong eenene, » The ap Raut.

Rickard’s enterprises, too, including a partnership interest in the prize fight, and this bound him to stay with the whole proposition, lending the power of his personal publicity to the general good of the resort as a whole. For a time after Rickard’s death the promotion sagged alarmingly, but after all, there were all those people with all that easy money looking for ways to squander it and presently they be- gan to move in. Miami’s Commerce Ile Pleasure With City Making Come-Back Now they are crowding the hotels on the beach, which is a separate mu- nicipality from the City of Miami, built on a great synthetic island a mile wide and about 7 miles long and ab- solutely without any practical excuse for existence. That is, the town has no markets, no productivity, not even a railroad and its commerce is limited entirely to pleasure. Last season was a dismal! one for Miami Beach and not all of the hotels opened. Some of those which did open offered rooms and meals at ordinary city rates, so hard pressed were the mortgage holders: for the interest on their investments. But today, in a street floor shop in the Floridian Hotel @ room which was vacant last year, there is a branch office of a New York etock brokerage firm, with the magni- fied ticker tape crawling across the fore- wall above the blackboard giving the blow-by-blow of the Battle of the Eighths on Wall street. $25 Tickets Fail to Check Enthusiasm of Idle Rich. The tickets for the prize fight are selling briskly and the gate is expected to exceed $350,000. Why not? Would people who gamble from $50 to $50,000 on one turn of a roulette wheel haggle about the price of a $25 fight ticket? Last night a lady who derives her in- come from 5 and 10 cent stores where girls work eight hours a day on their feet for $16 a week blew $15,000 trying to trim the tiger’s claws a few miles up the shore. She may not go to the prize fight, but if not the price will not be the deterrent. Sharkey and Stribling, the prize fighters referred to, have fought very well sometimes, and very horribly on other occasions. ‘There is no telling how well they will fight tomorrow eve- ning. They are very temperamental and moody. But nobody will care. No- body has ever covered their training. The writers have caught glimpses of them now and again in passing, but the training was ljacadaisical, and anyway every one knows how they punch and grab and wrestle. Stribling has a sore rib and a twinge In one hand, but what of it? Paulino Uzcudun came down today to serve as alternate if he should withdraw. Journalist Boasts He Never Saw Either of Fighters Train. One of the journalists, after three weeks of ostensible coverage of the training camps, was boasting the other night that he had yet to glimpse either of the mode] young husbands, either in training clothes or otherwise. That evening he went to a moving picture show and when the news reel was flashed upon the sheet he rose up and fled, yelling foul! foul! Having avoided the very sight of both fighters all this time, he was taking his ease with a false sence of security when suddenly both Stribling and Sharkey leaped to life and action on the screen before him doing calisthenics and punching the body bag. ee ee NO use. » and improving white duke. take the lieve ALTA, which figures next best, | can give her this amount of weight.

McGraw was im- pressed by Fay’s stuff, but did not like the former collegian’s aversion to work. He was about to speak to him about it, but Fay spoke his piece first. It was a piece to the effect that he would like to take a few days off to go on a trip with some friends who were passing through Sarasota. What McGraw said to this could bet- ter be described than imagined, but this is not the place for the description.

THE WASHINGTON POST: WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 1929. oOo” ale y a ee eee ——— eee cee eateries eaten -G. W. SEEKS STRONGER ATHLETIC REPRESENTATIOI ~ New Phy ysi + Director to Be Named Crum Is Offered Con- tract for 1929 Grid Season. Physical Education to Be Brought Closer to Athletics. — WASHINGTON UNIVER- SITY seeks stronger representa- tion in athletics and has taken steps toward that end. Adoption of a comprehensive physi- tal education and athletic policy for Washington, which includes the appointment of a man of outstand- ing reputation as director of physica! education, was announced last night through the office of Dr. Cloyd Heck Marvin, president of the university. Dr. Marvin now is in Chicago, pre- sumably, it is feported, to interview one or two men whom he is consider- ing for the post of director of physical education. Announcement of an ap- pointment to this position is expected to come in the near future. The new physical education director will ap- point coaches in the various sports, it was stated In the announcement from President Marvin's office, and appoin- tees for these posts will be made short- ly after the new director is chosen. Crum Has Been Offered Contract For Next Season. H. Watson (Maud) Crum, who has @oached the George Washington foot- ball teams for several years past and who took over the entire duties of bas- ketball coach this winter in addition, has been offered a contract for next year as football coach, it was stated at the university. In view of the fact that heretofore Coach Crum has been regarded as field administrator of sports at G. W. and that he will be superseded in authority ‘by the new director, much surprise was occasioned last night by the an- mouncement of the new athletic pol- icy. Crum declined to comment on the situation, saying that he did not know an about it. He referred Under the new plan, the physical education work of the curriculum will be correlated with the athletic program. The policy is one which looks, the an- nmouncement stated, “toward the steady development of athletics in the uni- versity which, while it may take sev- eral years for full fruition, will result ultimately, it is anticipated, in a Dasically sound, well-rounded athletic yt and teams that will represent niversity worthily in all «epart- ments of s “It is the same sense of the uni- versity administration that George W athletic teams shall be the outgrowth of the training in physical education offered in the uni- versity. Two years of physical ¢duca- tion work now required of students of = university will aid materially in the development of athletics by sup- plying recruits to the teams.” Central High Swimmers Victors in Baltimore Special to The Washington Post.

U. RINGMEN TO OPPOSE BUCKNELL Unbeaten Cardinals in Third Match at Lewisburg. another they have claimed, Catholic University’s boxers to- night will strive to keep their 1929 record unmarred by defeat in a match with the mittmen of Bucknell College at Lewisburg, Pa. The strength of the Bucknell boxers is not known here, but Coach Teddy Mitchell has primed his men for a hard test, guarding against the possi- bility that the Lewisburg boys are of the best in college ranks. The hopes of the Cardinals rest mainly on Frank Fullam, middleweight; Jack Malevitch, heavyweight; Blasi, welterweight, and Capt. Mickey Maguire, lightweight. The Cardinals have another assign- ment this week which at present ap- pears more difficult of successful com- pletion than tonight’s match. On Sat- urday night Mitchell’s proteges will en- counter the Green Terrors of Western Maryland in the home ring. The Ter- rors defeated Georgetown, 4 to 3, and made the Navy Boxers extend them- selves to the limit. Calvary Reds Win. FG Fi Fet.

Assuming that they will do all that is claimed for them, that they have been “doctored” so as to flow a? at very low temperatures--their body usually insufficient to withstand the high operating temperature of the motor. And-- even if the operation is a success--your car suffers. It is not enough for a lubricating oil to flow freely at low temperatures. It must also possess sufficient stamina to stand up under the terrific heat and friction ever present in the operating motor. And that’s just what AMOCO Motor Oil does. Designed to flow instantly and freely at all practical temperatures, its 100% Pure Paraffine Base insures you of thorough, satisfactory lubrication under all operating conditions. We'll admit that it’s hard to manufacture an oil that will flow easily in cold weather and still stand up under ex- cessive strain. But it can be done--and our engineers have done it. Insist on AMOCO Motor Oil and be assured of satisfactory lubrication in all kinds of weather and under all conditions. dhe AMERICAN OIL COMPANY Affliated with Pan American Petroleum & Transport Company General Offices: Baltimore, Md.

OFFERS ALTERNATIVES TO COMBAT CONDITIONS LaGaurdia Hits Proposed Law as Class Legislation; Says Pian Unscientific. Passage of the Jones prohibition bill, §teatly increasing the penalties for liguor law violations, would create a sérious situation in Washington and would necessitate the appointment of at least four additional Supreme Court tices and establishment of a great- enlarged Police Court, Representa- ‘tive Gibson, of Vermont, yesterday told the District subcommittee investigat- ing local affairs.

(Representative LaGuardia, of New York, takes the opposite view and says of-the bill that it “permits the socially prominent and financially affluent to entertain and lavishly serve liquor and , Wines with the risk of obtaining a alight fine, while the unfortunate and obscure man who happens to sell two or more glasses of California claret at 10 cents a glass faces a prison term ot! five years.” All this, he says is possible. because the bill is “unscientific in that it does not define the various degrées of crime for which punishment is provided.” Notice has been served by Rep- resentative Celler, of New York, t if the Jones bill passes the House he will introduce a resolution providing the death penalty for prohibition viola- tors. “As long as the professional pro- hibitionists are drunk with power the law might as well made as drastic as possible,” he asserts.

ORGANIZATION OPPOSES FORMER TARIFF CHIEF Fight on Floor Expected Over Nominations for Posts on District Bench. The Senate judiciary committee yes- terday approved the nomination of Henry H. Glassie, of Chevy Chasé, Md., a former member of the Tariff Commis- sion, to fill the new judgeship in the District Supreme Court. The vote was 9 to 7, with one member not voting. At the same time the committee ap- proved the nomination of former Sen- ator Irvine L, Lenroot, of Wisconsin, to a judgeship in the Court of Customs Appeals, by a vote of 11 to 4, with twe members not voting. It is expected that the nomination of Glassie and Lenroot will be present- ed to the Senate today for confirma- tion. Opponents of both Glassie and Lenroot announced, however, that they will attempt to prevent confirmation. Nominated Over Protest. Glassie was nominated by President Coolidge February 14 to fill the judge- ip, recently created in the District upreme Court by Congress, over the protests of local Republican leaders, who sought to have John Lewis Smith, prominent local attorney and actively identified with the local Republican or- ganization, named for the post. The fight against Glassie was waged by those who were displeased with the way he handled condemnation cases for the Federal Government and by those who fought him when he was a member of the Federal Tariff Com- | mission. At a recent hearing of the commit- | tee opponents of Glassie charged him with being physically unfit for the post and with having engaged in undigni- fied conduct as a member of the bar. Glassie’s qualifications for the judge- ship were thrashed out yesterday after- noon by the judiciary committee in executive session and his confirmation will be sought immediately by his sup- porters. : Lenroot Opposition Mild. There was but mild opposition mani- fested against the nomination of Len- root. This opposition developed principally because he represented utility companies at a time when the power trusts were under fire, but Len- root told members of a subcommittee that he had not, at any time, used his floor privilege for the purpose of lobbying. Glassie served as a Democrat on the Tariff Commission. While a member of that body he was criticised hitterly in Congress for participation in the com- mission’s sugar investigations. despite the fact that his wife was interested financially in a Louisiana sugar plan- tation. During the greater part of the last two years Glassie has been elgaged nm representing the Yrederal Government in condemning land for a number of big building projects, including the Pennsylvania avenue-Mall triangle de- velopment and the new Supreme Court building. Native of Tennessee He was born in Nashville, Tenn., 58 years ago. He received his hiyher edu- cation at Johns Hopkins University and Columbian University, now George Washington University. He came Washington in 1874 and in 1907 mar- ried Gertrude Caffrey, daughier of the late Senator Caffrey. They have three children. The nominations of both Glassie and Lenroot have been opposed bv a num- ber of senators. If the Senate fails to confirm their nominations before next — the nominations die automati- cally. — The confirmation of Pat M Neff. of Texas, to be a member of the Railroad Board of Mediation also is being held up in the Senate by Mayfield, of Texas, and a group of other Democrats. Should a vote be taken, however, he is expected to be confirmed by a safe margin. Other nominations pending before the Senate are those of Arthur Batchel- ler, of Massachusetts, and Cyril M. Jansky, of Minnesota, as inembers of the Federal Radio Commission. _ Al- though there has been no opposition expressed against these nominations, they have been held up by the fact that the Senate interstate commerce committee, in reporting them, did so on condition that the Watson-White radio bill first pass the Senate. The bill provides that the terms of all members of the commission expire at the end of one year. St. Alban’s Headmaster Quits; Served 14 Years William Howell Church, headmaster of St. Alban’s National Cathedral School for Boys, has resigned, effective July 1, and the resignation has been accepted. Mr. Church has occupied his present post since 1915. The Rev. Albert H. Lucas, present assistant headmaster of the Episcopal Academy, Overbrook, Philadelphia, has been named to succeed him.

In a few instances, however, stores will open for business during the morn- ing hours Monday, but will close at noon in order that the employes may witness the inaugural parade and par- ticipate in the afternoon festivities. There are @ few stores that have not as yet indicated whether or not they will close all day, but the consensus of the meeting yesterday indicated that all the main businesses would close at least half~the day. These will an- nounce their intentions today or to- morrow. The larger department stores made it known several days ago that they would remain closed all day Monday. They include Woodward & Lothrop, Kann & | ’ > Son, Lansburgh & Brother, the Hecht Co., Goldenberg’s, Palais Royal and King’s Palace.

That detail of the exercisee antici- pating the retiring President accom- panying the new Chief Executive to the White House for luncheon imme- diately after the exércises at the Cap- itol has been omitted, but Mr. Cool- idge’s decision will not affect the order of the parade. Although the custom is fur the re- tir:ng President to accompany his suc- cessor to the White House, thse practice was broken by both Presidents Roose- velit and Wilson, and Mr. Coolidge is said to feel that he is justified in not returning to the mansion. Instead, he will board a fast limiced of the Penn- sylvania Railroad which runs directly to the Massachusetts town. Details Are Completed. Details of the mammoth celebration had been arranged yesterday, and the inaugural committee, under the leader- ship of Col. U. 8.
