Manassas, Va., March 10.—Four youths, all of Prince William County, are dead as the result of a grade cross- ing accident near here this afternoon. Three were killed outright while the fourth died several hours later at the hospital at Alexandria, Va.

Just how the accident occurred has not been learned. Although the smash- up occurred within 50 yards of a house and wreckage of the Gemolished auto- mibile tore down the fence around the front yard, none of the occupants wit- nessed the crash. Three Killed Instantly. The two Whetzel boys and Kerlin were dead when members of the train crew and occupants of the house reached them. -Smith was unconscious, and appeared to be dying. He was placed in a passing automobile and hastened to Manassas, whence he was ‘carried in an ambulance to Alexandria. The trip to the hospita’ was nego- tiated in about 45 minutes. When he reached the hospital doctors made a thorough examination of him, but de- Cided that death was only a matter of hours. His s.ull was found to. be fearfully crushed and he also was suf- fering from a number of other in- juries. He died at 7:45 o’clock tonight without regaining consciousness.

Monkeys Escape; Kill 350 Canaries in Store New York, \March 10 ‘(A.P.).—Two monkeys released themselves from their cage ina downtown animal store‘today, and before their escape was discovered they had wrung the necks of 350 cana- ries and a rare parrakeet and killed a half dozen fantail gold fish. A policeman who saw one of the monkeys in the act of slaying the par- rakeet in a display window forced the door open and saw turtles crawling on the floor through a layer of bird feath- ers, frantic songsters beating their wings in terror against the walls, gold fish wriggling on counters and a large baboon working hopefully on the door of his cage, which had been partly For Recovery of Foch Paris, March 10 "(UP.) —Dr. Heitz- fs Kitty Costello, Ter error Of Bootleggers, Held Undercover Dry Assistant of Varicolored Hair Arrested in Capital on Bench Warrant as Witness After Defying Baltimore Court.

Physicians believe she has a. frac- tured back and a fractured hip but stated that definite decision could not be reached until after thorough X-ray examination today. Miss Healy was riding on Ross drive in+the park when her horse became skittish and tossed her. Police of the park department were unable to learn whether the horse was running away at the time. The girl was placed in an automobile driven by Policeman Scoville of the Thirteémth Precinct and removed to Walter Reed Hospital. She was given emergency treatment at that institu- tion by Lieut. Charles McIntyre, M. C., and later carried to Emergency Hos- pital in the latter’s ambulance. Trinity College authorities could not be reached last night for a statement. It was understood, however, that the young woman is one of the advanced students at the institution. ‘Both hospital and police report that they informed the college authorities of the young woman’s accident and that they understood her parents had been informed.

While foreign diplomats were busy yesterday denying a report that they will discontinue the practice of im- porting liquors into the United States for their personal use, Representative Clyde Kelly, of Pennsylvania, told an audience at a law and order meeting in Foundry M. E. Church, that the “time is coming when foreign legations in the Capital will be asked to respect the laws of the United States, including the eighteenth amendment.” “President Hoover's inaugural ad- dress was a declaration of war on the outlaw liquor interests,” Representative Kelly declared. “I believe he will give us a ‘reasonable’ enforcement. 1 be- lieve he will make Washington a-model for the rest of the Nation. “The majority of Washington's citi- wens earn their bread and butter from the Government,” he continued, “and they have e solemn obligation to sup- port the eighteenth amendment.” Viscount D’Alte, Minister o: Portugal and a veterah in the Diplomatic Corps here, said there was “not «a word of truth” to the report that he would no fonger import whisky and wines for the legation.

MEASURE PREPARED TO GO TO PARLIAMENT Cabinet and Crown Council Face Inevitable When Doctors Despair. London. March 10 (N.Y.W.N.S.).—The latest reports from the royal doctors have determined the cabinet and the council which now exercises the powers of the crown during the king’s illness, that the appointment of regent is inev- itable. Accordingly, Edward, Prince of Wales, will probably be created regent of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and northern Ireland and of the British dominions beyond the seas by act of parliament early next month. In addi- tion, he will have to decide within the coming ten weeks whether a conserva- tive or a labor government is to hold the reins of power in this country. In creating the Prince of Wales re- gent for his father the precedent established during the reign of George III will be followed. An offiical report from the royal doctors that his majesty is unable to discharge his functions during his illness will be followed by an act of parliament creating the prince regent until the physicians cer- tify that King George is able to resume his duties. Reason Largely Political. The real reason why a regency now seems inevitable is, in point of fact, largely a political one. Were it not for the approaching general election, the commission which now executes most of the powers of the crown would ‘be Permitted to continue But parliament will dissolve and the country will vote a new House of Commons not later than the end of May, probably in the middle of the month. Betting on the -tock exchange seems to ‘ndicate that the Conservative and Labor parties will be returned in ap- proximately equal strength, with Lloyd George and his liberals holding the bal- ance of power. Should either the Tories or the Labor party prove to have a clear majority, Stanley Baldwin or Ramsay MacDonald will take office as premier as a matter of course, and the royal approval will be merely a matter of form. But the equally possible situation— with neither party holding a real ma- jority—will compel the crown to choose the next premier on its own initiative. There is no escape from this under the British constitution, and apart from the fact. that the commissioners now exercising the royal powers would very likely be divided on general principles, some of them are party politicians, and a hopeless. tangle might result if the choice were left to them. Must Face Responsibility. This is why it has been decided that unless the king fully recovers his men- tal, as well as his physical, powers dur- ing the next two months, which is now considered impossible, the responsibility of selecting the party that is to rule must devolve upon the Prince of Wales. The New York World News Service understands from reliable sources that a regency bill|/ has been prepared within the past few days. King George, in 1924, found himself faced with just such a situation as his son is likely to meet this spring. The Tories came back from the general election of that year with more members in the house of common than Labor, but less than the forces of Labor and the Liberals were able to muster together Great pressure then was brought to bear on the King to put Baldwin back in office. or else to send for Asquith, the head of the Liberal party, but he ald and the Labor party in power. This was on his own initiative and repre- sented really the most important act of his reign. It is only when such a deadlock oc- curs that the king actua!ly, and not in form only, chooses the prime minister, who must, however, obtain the support of the majority of the house of com- mons or again dissolve the house and appeal to the general electorate. Despite reassuring semiofficial re- ports from the royal invalid, it is un- derstood that the doctors have informed Premier Baldwin that even if the king's mental weakness due to his long iill- ness shows signs of abatement, King George could) not be asked to decide such a momentous issue In May or June. It was this verdict that led to the deatsion that a regency must in- evitably be established. (Copyright, 19298.) College Paper Gives Coolidge His Privacy Springfield, Mass., March 10 (A.P.).— Calvin Coolidge’s frequently expressed wish to be allowed to return quietly to private life was respected im the cur- rent issue of the college paper of his alma mater.

FOR NEW GRIT BEGING TODAY! Commission Hints Hesse Successor May Be Outside Man. VACANT POST SOUGHT BY PRATT AND OTHERS Dougherty Says No Present Official Is Outstanding; Choice Seen in Week. The District Commissioners today vill begin. “with open minds,” a search for a new chief for Washington's trou- bled police force. In looking ‘or a successor to Maj. Edwin B. Hesse, who. pleading illness, has requested that he be retired March 31 as superintendent of police, Proctor L. Dougherty, president of the District Commissioners, vesterday said the search for a new chief of police would rot be confined to present members of the force. Hope beats high in the hearts of at least half a dozen police officials, who personally feel they would make the ideal leader for Washington’s police force, which, during the last several years, has seen its officials and mem- bers attacked both by Congress and in the courts. Inspectors Are Hopeful. That these half a dozen officials, in- cluding Inspector Henry G. Pratt, chief of detectives and senior assistant su- perintendent; Inspector Albert Headley, and other inspectors and captains, may be passed over for an “outsider,” as was done in the case of the late Ray- mond W. Pullman, was indicated yes- terday by Dougherty, who said that at the present time no one among the po- lice officials stood out preeminently as the likely suc -essor to the mantle now worn by Hesse. It is entirely possible some outstanding citizen might be of- fered the post, Dougherty said. Dougherty added, however. three weeks remain for the Commis- sioners to decide on a sticcessor to Hesse, and that before one is picked, the retirement board wil! have to act on Maj. Hesse’s request for retirement. During the next few days, however, the Commissioners are expected to have got fairly started on the selection of a group of “possibilities” and within the next ten days or two weeks will have arrived at a tentative choice. Hesee Retirement Likely: Maj. Hesse’s plea’ for retirement on the grounds that his health has been broken as a result of the strenuous de- mands made upon it as a result of his duties, is expected to be acted upon favorably by the retirement board. Speculation as to whether the Com- missioners would na a member of the force or pick a civilian as Hesse’s successor, was rife among members of the force yesterday. Those who believe that some other than one who has “pounded the bricks” will be chosen, base their contention that Maj. Hesse, himself, had never worn the uniform before his elevation from the chief clerkship to the position of head of the force and that Raymond Pullman had never had any connection with the Police Department before he was selected as its head. U. S. Father, Daughter - . Decorated by France that New York, March 10 (A.P.).—A New York lawyer and his daughter today were both entitled to wear the bit of I ribbon which shows the wearer to be a chevalier of the Legion of Honor of France. They are said to be the only father and daughter in- America so honored by the French government. Charles Robinson-Smith several years ago was decorated for his work with the Belgian relief commission and to- day the French government office here announced that Gertrude Robinson- Smith, his daughter, had been qmade a chevalier of the legion. Miss Robin- son-Smith’s awerd was made for her work in raising funds for ten ice-mak- ing units for the French army in 1914. Canadian Hops to Aid Injured Clergyman Camp Borden, Ont., March 10 (A.P.).

It now rests with President Hoover to put us in or Keep us out, and ax he was party to the going «broad of Root on his unofficial mission of getting the league powers to agrse on a method under which the United States could join the court, it is assumed that he will favor the plan. He discussed the matter with Root previous to the sail- ing of the veteran statesman. After the publication of the Root modifica- tion, he had a conference wit Senator Borah, who was the most consistent opponent to our going ‘nto the court. At the same session were Senator Walsh, of Montana, the chief Democratic ad- vocate of our joining, and Senator Swanson (Democrat).

REBELS SHIFT TO CHIHUAHUA + ' FEDERALS MAY QUIT-MAZATLAN CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1, Nogales, Sonora, Mexico,; March 10 (A.P.).—Advices outlining activities of the rebel forces that are bestirring themselves to meet the northward ad- vance of Gen. Calles’ federal army from Mexico City via Aguas Calientes and into the state of Zacategas reached revolutionary headquarters here today. A rapid shifting of 2,000 rebe) troops from the southern west coast sector of Mexico to Chihuahua was announced by Gen. Franotsco Borquez, rebel chief- tain here, as under way. Word that the -evolutionary move- ment has enveloped the southern dis- } trict of lower California also was re- ceived at rebel headquarters here today. Thirteen hundred troops from the southern section of lower California were reported aboard ship on their way to Guayamas to join the revolutionary forces of Gen. F. R. Manzo, now stretched out *n a long line from Nava- joa, in southern Sonora, to Cullacan, Sinaloa. What definite assignment would be given the new.troops from across the gulf Gen. Borquez was not able to say definitely. That. he said, would remain in the hands of Gen. Manzo. The lower California southern dis- trict, reports here sani, swung into the rebel column at midnight last night, and almost immediately troops were started for the potential battle zones. Amada Aguirre is governor of the southern district of Lower California. The northern district of the peninsula state, governed by Abalardo Rodriguez, still remains loyal to the federal cause, with Rodriguez concentrating such troops as are at his command on the Sonora border at San Luis, 30 miles south of Yuma, Ariz. Any clash be- tween Rodriguez and soldiers of the southern district of Lower California appeared highly improbable. Moun- tainous country separates the two dis- ‘tricts, and there are practically no lines by land between the troops en route across the gulf which were expected to reach Guayamas late today or tonight.

NO VICTOR OR. VANQUISHED Rome, March 10 (A.P.).—There is neither victor nor vanquished: in the settlement of the Roman question, Pre- mier Mussolini told the quinquennial assembly in the packed opera house this afternoon, “but only absolute equity which led to the accord, restor- ing reciprocally the de jure situation which had become dangerous and irk- some.” This, his first public pronouncement on the conciliation of church and state, was the principal point in his speech and attracted the most attention and the loudest applause. The premier emphasized that peace between the Italian government and the Vatican is an event of supreme im- portance not only for Italy but for the entire world. He pointed out a date which will remain famous in history when on February 11, 1929, by the Lateran treaty the Holy See “at last solemnly recognized the Italian King- dom under the House of Savoy with Rome as its capital.” Asked Small Territory. Giving the other side of the picture the premier went on, saying: “We, on our part, loyally recognized the sover- eignty of the pontiff and the Holy See, Which in reality already existed de facto.” The premier especially pointed out the generosity of Pope Pius XI, who, he said, asked for the smallest possible territory, because territory, no matter how tiny, took nothing away from the. greatness of another nature which was characteristic of the supreme head of a universal religion in which capacity he could not be a subject of any state. | After having recognized the preemi- nence of the Catholic Church in the re. ligious life of the Italian people, which, he said, was perfectly natural for Cath- olic people and under a regime like Fascism, the premier said it was su- perfluous to affirm that all other cults which heretofore were, according to the constitution, only “tolerated” would be heither persecuted, suppressed nor sim- ply annoyed. “A Catholic state does not mean that citizens will be submitted to any pres- sure to follow a given religion or deter- mined faith, even though that be the same as that professed by a majority of the people,” the premier said. Duce in Excellent Health. Mussolini appeared in excellent nealth and his voice was strong. He walked on the stage after all the members of his cabinet and the grand council were seated and 400 candidates for the lower House of Parliament had been placed He was immediately the object of a monster demonstration from the packed house. Smilingly, he- allowed the vivas and handclapping for five minutes and then raised his hand in an imperious gesture for silence. Reading rapidly and in a matter of fact manner, I! Duce could be likened to a chairman presenting a report to his board of directors.| He seldom rounded his periods in oratorical fash- ion, using few gestures, all with his right hand, holding his manuscript with the left, a good reading distance away. He was attired in a cutaway, with a black tie and a large white handkerchief in his breast pocket. He displayed no jewelry save the Fascist badge in the right lapel of his coat. The speech lasted 40 minutes. Scene Was Unique. The whole scene was unique in the history of political rallies in Europe and so different from similar gather- ings in the United States as to be al- most totally foreign. Probably for the first time in the history of a modern state all candi- dates for the nation’s lower house of parliament were assembled on the same stage—a— single nation-wide ticket for a single-party~going to the polls as such on March 24. There was only one speech and that was by number one of the list—Mussolini. There was no band or orchestral music but some impromptu singing by groups in the orchestra pit. This, incidentally proved that Fascist songbirds are considerably better at singing their own songs than the ma- jority of the delegates to the Republi- can or Democratic conventions in the United States. Soviet Frees Trotzky From Turkish Durance Constantinople, March 10 (A.P.).— Leon Trotzky, former Soviet war lord who is now in exile, and his wife and son have left the Soviet Consulate, where they have been confined since their arrival from Russia, and now are living in a hotel in Pera. No reason has been made public for lifting the restrictions, which had hitherto been opposed by Soviet authorities. While he now enjoys most of the privileges accorded any foreigners re- siding in Turkey, it appears that Trotz- ky has pledged himself not to organ- ze any demonstration. The transfer from the consulate to the hotel was attended by the same secrecy that marked his arrival in Turkey. Aviator Carries Furs On 1,600-Mile Flight Edmonton, Alta., March 10 (U.P.).— “Punch” Dickens, noted aviator, who recently flew in through a blizzard to carry ald to a stricken northern out- post, today completed a flight of 1,600 miles from Fort Good Hope, upon the rim of the Arctic Circle, bringing with him a valuable cargo of furs, this sea- son’s catch. Ordinarily these furs would not reach here until July or August.

After daylight the woman still de- clared she was too ill to be moved, and United States Commissioner Needham C. Turnage and Assistant United States District Attorney William Gallagher went to the apartment and prepared to hold a commissioner’s hearing on removal proceedings. A physician, whose name was not divulged, also was called Not Too Il, Doctor Says. He found that the woman was not too ill to move and the hearing pro- ceeded. After considerable argument pro and con between the assistant dis- trict attorney.and Joseph Keliy, the woman's lawyer, the prisoner consented to be removed to Baltimore. More than two hours were consumed by the hearing. a Shé was escorted to Baltimore by Deputy Clarkson and Deputy Mrs. Fer- ris. Arrived at the jail, the two depu- ties delivered the prisoner, obtaining a receipt showing her safe delivery, anc then returned to Washington. When he reported back at the mar- shal’s office here at 5:30 o'clock yes- terday afternoon, Deputy Clarkson had been on duty continuously for almost 36 hours. Miss Costello is the woman who gained considerable notoriety here some time ago when she trapped sev- eral persons into making. deliveries of alleged liquor to an apartment in which she and several other prohibi- tion agents were secreted. The woman | telephoned for whisky and when the deliveries were made the agents ar- rested the person or persons who de- livered it. The same system also Was worked successfully in Baltimore. The Baltimore case in which she was sought as a witness is an out- growth of the arrest of Clarence Morse- berger and William Cecil on a charge of violating the prohibition law. While she is said to have been instrumental in bringing about their arrest, she was wanted as a Witness for the defense. The case was up for trial Thursday, but the woman did not appear, Judge Orders Appearance. Judge Coleman ordered her appear- ance in court Friday. V/hen the trial was resumed on that date, John J. Quinn, deputy prohibition administra- tor for Washington, told the court he had located the woman in Washington and instructed her to be in court for. the trial. Prohibition Administrator John F. J. Herbert told the court that the woman’s employment with his bureau ceased Thursday. John Phillip Hill, at- torney for Morseberger and former rep- resentative, declared in : statement to the court that the woman tore up the subpena when it was handed to her by a Washington deputy marshal and almost kicked the officer down the steps. Judg. Coleman then issued the bench warrant and adjourned the case until today. It was learned last night from Balti- more sources that Miss Costello had been making a tour of Washington piaces where whisky is sold for several weeks, and had gained considerable in- formation which is expected to result in‘raids in the next week or so One of the places‘she is said to have investi- gated is one said to be frequented by members of Congress. Despite the fact shat Admin‘strator Herbert told the Baltimore court that Miss .Costello’s connection with the dry unit had ceased last Thursday it was reported that she had continued her work of ‘under cover’ agent Saturday night'almost up to tne time she was arrested. Whether the woman’s connection with the prohibition bureau was sev- ersd as the result of her failure to ap- pear in court could not be learned last night. It was learned, fo" ver, that during her work with the prohibition unit here and in Baltimore the woman had changed he hair six times. She came here as a blonde and when arrested had dark hair, according to the offi- cers At one stage her hair was red, and it is as the “red-headed prohibi- tion agent” that she ts t known to - local bootleggers, it is said. THE WASHINGTON POST: MONDAY. MARCH 11, 1929. me eee ee MURDERER OF GIRL INGINE, FLEES EL Philip ‘Two-Gun’ Bishop Saws Way to Freedom, Evading Asylum Sentence. HAS LONG CRIME RECORD New York, March 10 (N.Y.WNS.)— Philip “Two-Gun” Bishop, one of the ugliest and most maniacal thugs the police have had to deal with in New York, got his liberty last night by saw- ing through two bars over a window in the observation ward of Kings County Hospital, and dropping 8 feet to the ground. With a record running back to 1905, when he shot and killed a 19-year-old girl, Catherine Doran, shortly before his own twelfth birthday, Bishop was in the observation ward tem y be- fore being taken to the State Hospital for the Insane at Mattewan. Last January 30 at about 6:20 o'clock in the morning, he drove into a garage at Bergen street and Utica avenue, Brooklyn, and ordered the attendant, Clinton Turner, a negro, to give him five gallons of gasoline. He refused to pay, became enraged because he could not get it for nothing, and set fire toa gallon of gasoline, which he threw upon the floor. He was convicted of arson, but physi- clans said he was insane, In the Gates Avenue Police Court in Brooklyn he threw the room into great commotion by hitting a guard in the face and by seizing so tight a choke grip upon Tur- ner that several men were required to pry him loose and hold him. He has been arrested thirteen times and sentenced twice to the penitentiary. Police consider him to be exceptionally dangerous. | He was found to be missing from the observation ward at 8:20 tonight. George Robinson, a prisoner charged with burglary, said some one came to a window of the ward last Tuesday after- noon, sheared a hole through the wire screen, handed in a hacksaw to Bishop, and went away. Robinson admitted he helped Bishop get through the bars, 2 SPEAKERS. ASSAIL DRY LAW VIOLATORS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. maintain the respect and support of the men under him. “Any man under Maj. Hesse who shares the responsibility for the reign of lawlessness, bootlegging and gam- bling that has prevailed in Washing- ton under constitutional prohibition, can be trusted to do a good job as his successor. The policy of this adminis- tration from the top down should be to put only known dry officers on the job of drying up the Nation’s Capital.” Besides Representative Kelly, Miss Norma C. Brown, vice president of the Flying Squadron Foundation of Indian- apolis, and Dr. Edwin C. Dinwiddie. national legislative representative of the squadron, spoke at Foundry. Miss Brown described the general progress of law enforcement agencies in the nine years since the passage of the eighteenth amendment. She called at- tention to the large number of liquor cases that are awaiting court action and urged more courts to handle them Dr. Dinwiddie explained the purposes of the new national prohibition pro- motion committee that is being formed along the lines of political parties. CROWD QUITS CHURCH AT MOVIE SHOW FIRE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1, the only damage to the church besides that caused to the projection room. Merle Foster and Crown Davis were projecting the picture when the fire broke out. They, together with Tate T. Hackney. who was sitting in the bal- cony of the church within a few feet of the projection room, obtained fire extinguishers and had the fire under control when the firemen arrived. The firemen ran a small hose to the balcony and completed the work of putting out the blaze while the audi- ence was still leaving the church. Davis lost his coat, which was consumed by the flames, Dr. Pierce said afterward that neither the audience nor the church was en- dangered by the flames. The vents to the: projection room close automatical- ly when the heat melts the soldering around them, thereby cutting off the flames from the remainder of the building : The movie was the twelve-reel fea- ture, “The King of Kings.” Dr, Pierce had prefaced the showing of the picture by a brief talk, as is his custom on Sunday nights. The pastor said that the picture will be shown again tonight as scheduled and each night for the remainder of the week. The crowd that went to see the picture last night was so large that it was necessary to turn away about 300 persons,‘he said. ‘Russia Signs Tariff Pact. “ Paris, March 10 (A.P.).—A Havas Agency report from Teheran tonight Says that Persia and Russia have signed a tariff convention on the most favored basis. ti SPECIAL NOTICES I WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY debts unless contracted for by myself SPANISH 52210%.2 SCHOOL OF WASHINGON Profs. from Spain—Conversational Methods.

The following is taken from a letter of Senor Don Pablo Ramirez, Minister of Finance of the Republic of Chile, ad- dressed to The National City Company: The proceeds of the present Loan, as well as of the £2,000,000 being offered simultaneously in the Lon- don market by Messrs. N. M. Rothschild & Sons, will be applied to the construction of public works, such as railways, irrigation works, port works, sewage and water works, and public buildings. The Government of Chile is now carrying out a comprehensive plan of public works, as authorized under law No. 4303, which pro- vides for an expenditure of 225,000,000 pesos ($27,374,- 062) in. 1929, which is to be provided for in part from the proceeds of the present dollar and sterling issues. Chile with a population now estimated at over 4,200,- 000, has an area of 290,000 square miles. The leatling industries are agriculture and mining. Agriculturally the country is self-supporting and its mineral output averages approximately $250,000,000 per annum. American capital invested is estimated at over $550,- 000,000, and British at over $500,000,000. The Chilean Government is carrying out, with modifi- cations, a program of administrative reform outlined by the Kemmerer Financial Commission in 1925. This has resulted in the stabilization of the currency on a gold basis, the establishment of a central bank of issue, a general budget law with a balanced budget, and the installation of an independent Comptroller-General. Various measures have been passed to stimulate the economic development of the country, taxation has been reorganized and economies effected by a reduc- tion of personnel and control of expenditures. ” The gold and gold exchange held by the Banco Central de Chile on February 15, 1929 was $59,995,622, provid- ing a ratio of gold cover to notes outstanding and de- posits of 97.67%. The ordinary revenues for 1927, excluding loans, as reported by the Comptroller-General totalled $110,- 607,000, as compared with ordinary expenditures of $110,185,555. The corresponding figures for 1928 are $124,222,449 and $119,561,829, giving a surplus of revenues over expenditures of $4,660,620. The budget- arv estimates for 1929 place ordinary, . venues at $136,- 662,452 and ordinary expenditures at »130,374,019. The total funded debt as of December 31, 1928, in- cluding all guaranteed obligations, was $416,037,654, of which $291;429,555 was a direct debt of the Govern- ment. the foreign trade in 1928 included imports totalling $142,303,079 and exports totalling $239,181,687, of which $40,360,606 consisted. of imports from the United States and $75,159,582 of exports to that country.

REFUGEES TAKE TO HILLS Greybull, Wyo., ‘Mardh 10 (A.P.).— Forced by rampaging; flood waters from the Big Horn Riyer to abandon their homes in the dead of night, hundreds of citizens of this little oil town today returned to take toll of their property damage, the night in the refuge mountains. One life was lost; and} property dam- age amounting to approximately $200,- 000 was left in the wake of the “flash flood,” which rolled over the sleeping city last night when 4n 8-mile ice gorge in the river: backed the water into the streets and inumdated homes. A Japanese Boy was struck down and killed by a motorist who was making a hasty exit from thé town to the hills to escape the rushing waters. Late last night the}; dam formed south of Greybull:in §heep Canyon, near the junction of thé Greybull and Gradually the water backed up, until more than 4 feet of yvater flooded the town eatreets. The residents had no§ been caught fully unawares. Flood conditions were expected and an alarm was sounded, which caused the 1,500 {nhabitants to start a hurried exodus to the hills. Many went to Basin, the) nearest town, 8 miles away, where they received ac- commodations in homeg and hotels. More than 200 were cared for in the Midwest oil refinery and hundreds of others spent the night in automobiles on the mountains overlodking the city. “Fighting Woman Mayor” Stays. One of the few to remain in Grey- bull, besides the telephone operators, was Elizabeth Wiley, khown as the “fighting woman mayor’ of Greybull. She refused to leave the city even when conditions were apparently seri- ous. When~it became evident there was no possibility of immediate relief, an airplane was sent from!

WORLD COURT MOVE RESTS WITH HOOVER CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. ence the President listened to the views of all.three, but did not commit him- self definttely. The hope of the court supporters is that he will include in his message to the extra session that coonvenes next month a recommendation for the with- drawal of the Swanson reservation and the substitution of Root’s proposal. This, roughly, provides that in the event of the President of the United States notifyigg the court that it claims an interest in any moot ques- tion, its objection shall have the same effect as an objection by any member nation in the league, and that if it is determined, notwithstanding. to go ahead with the advisory opinion, the United States may withdraw from the court, and any deciston shal’ not be binding upon it. Senator Swanson is represented as being agreeable to the change. Walsh, who, like most of the Demo- crats, was willing to go into the court, even with only the reservations formed by the then Secretary of State, Charles } Evans Hughes, sees no difficulty or sur- render of principles in accepting the Root modification. The big question is Borah, who, with sixteen other senators, fought to the last against our going into the court, and was not moliified even by the Swanson reservation. Borah and the progressive Republican group all voted against it, and were joined by Moses, of New Hampshire; Watson and Robin- son, of “ndian . and Williams, of Mis- souril. Blease, of South Carolina, and Reed, of Missour!, were the only Dem- ocrats on his list. The vote was 76 to 17 in favor of our joining the court. Victory Seen in Senate. There has been an attempt to sound the opinion of the Senate and the ad- vocates of the court say there will be hardly a defection among the 36 Demo- crats who voted for it two years ago, anc that only a handful of the 40 Re- publicans who voted with them will stand out. If that estimate is accurate, this country is as good as in the court now. Borah’s position is that the advisory function of the permanent court is re- sponsible for most of the trouble: Moreover, he does not regard Root’s so- lution as a workable expedient, inas- much as it puts the court in a position of having to wait on politics and diplo- macy before it knows whether it will take up a question or not. As between the Root proposal and the Swanson reservation, Borah sees little difference—both are unacceptable to him. During the conference at the White House he is said to have made it clear that he maintained the same position he always held about, our go- riously, when two cars aa ing-into the court, SOL HERZOG INC.

Northampton, Mass., March 10 (A-P.) Calvin Coolidge’s first Sunday at home was just like any other New England- er’s Sunday. Church services in the morning and a drowsy afternoon at home with the newspapers comprised the day's program. Mr. and Mrs. Coolidge attended ser- vices in the Edwards Congregational Church. It was the first time the for- mer President had passed through ‘ts portals since July, 1924, when, griet- laden, he attended a funeral service for his son Calvin, jr. A small group gathered outside the church to see them enter, and among these were friends to whom Mr. and Mrs, Coolidge smiled greetings. The Rev. James N. Armstrong, pastor, had chosen as a title for his sermon one that seemed peculiarly adaptable. It was “The Appeal of Religion to the Cautious and Contemplative.” After services, the Coolidges tarried for a few minutes outside to shake hands with friends. Explosives Carried Without Accidents Railroads of the United States and Canada carried half a billion pounds of dangerous explosives during 1928, largely for commercial purposes, with- out death or injury to any person and with property loss of only $77, accord- ing to the Bureau of Explosives of the American Railway Association.

(United Press.) A $13,000,000 Indian case, the prin- ciple of which involves also the fate of a bill passed by Congress directing continued Government. operation of Muscle Shoais, will be argued before the Supreme Court today. The case is the celebrated “pocket- veto” appeal of the Okanogan Indian tribe. The question is whether Con- gress adjourns or recesses when it ends ite first session. If it adjourn, then presidential pocket vetoes kill’ the bills. If it merely recesses, and the second ses- sion of the same Congress is regarded as @ mere continuation of the first, then the bills become law at the end of ten legislative days without presi- dential action. Attorney General Mitchell will ar- gue the White House side of the ap- peal, which results from a bill author- izing the Okanogan and other tribes to bring sult for about $13,000,000 al- leged due under old treaties between the Indians and the Government.

The hollow pretense that the court set up Ne the League of Nations is really an inde- - pendent world court of justice is still main- ined, in the face of absurdities that expose humbug. The league council, for example, Has just unanimously approved of Elihu Root’s ®rmula which seeks to harmonize the court tatnte with the Senate’s reservations. What hs the council of the league to do with this matter, if the court is independent of the aa 0 -. fhe United States would have supported the Dsart long ago, if the court had been inde- pendent of the league. It was because of the “attempt to keep the court an agency of the - political mechanism called the League of Na- i that the Senate made its reservations. _Im some quarters it is now confidently as- olimied that the Senate will readily approve the BR formula, under which the league retains a he right to use the court for political pur- ° pos The fact is, however, that a two-thirds Ewete for approval of the court statute could : not have been obtained in the Senate except af attaching reservations which divorced the | from the league so far as American in- sts were concerned. The Root formula a its essence provides that if the league in- sist upon using the court to obtain politico- opinions against the wish of the United ‘Btate this Government can withdraw its ad- to the court statute without having .-action regarded as unfriendly. In other r rerds, the Root formula says to the United - Daten, “Try it, and if you don’t like it you can / withdraw.” Thus it is proposed that the great 2 arrie pal ‘ap by the Senate against the use ‘ef the court for political purposes shall be 2 al down, but that the United States shall — the right to withdraw if the arrange- poet does not work. t ’ The United States was offered the same 4 D pight of withdrawal from the League of Na- tons, but it preferred not to enter into the p eetangiement, and this decision was favorably eommented upon by Mr. Hoover in his in- - pugaral. address. The Senate may be asked e008 to agree ‘to enter into an entanglement with an agency of the league, with the. sooth- ing assurance that the tie can be severed if it _ proves ‘unéatisfactory. q This is not the arrangement that the Senate provided for when it adopted the fifth reserva- eee It may be that public sentiment and _ ‘the sentiment of the Senate have changed, but #f so the change has not been manifested. The oq ‘gecord stands as a vote of 76 to 16 against a entering into an arrangement that permits the Eague of Nations to manipulate the so-called Pe © Worl Court for political purposes in matters eo ‘affecting the United States. —_—_—_— RADIO-WIRE MERGER. _ ‘The so-called White act makes unlawful the A ' gequisition, ownership or control by any per- pon, firm, company or corporation engaged in the business of communications by radio, of any part of the stock or any interest in the D sSsatee) property or other assets of any other able, wire, telegraph or telephone line or sys- tem if the purpose is to lessen competition or "restrain commerce. The provisions of this act have stood in the way of the highly desirable and much discussed radio-cable merger. They , ‘aise served to bring to an end discussions that /- ‘were under way up to several months ago rela- 4 tive to a merger between the Western Union _ and the Radio Corporation. It is rumored - now, however, that the discussions have been resumed and that the merger is practically at hand, .- ‘The Radio Corporation is most anxious to te in with a telegraph system.

The Radio- Western Union merger would be highly bene F ficial to the companies and probably would re- sult in an improved service to the public at re- duced rates. A way may have been found to comply with the provisions of the White act while accomplishing the object desired. THE POCKET VETO. up today the question whether or not a Dill left unsigned by the President at the adjourn- ment of a midterm session of Congress be- comes a law notwithstanding his failure to approve it. The theory advanced by the par- ties who deny the validity of the “pocket veto” is that Congress does not actually adjourn until its term expires, but merely recesses from one session to another. Théy hold that the President has an opportunity to return a Dill with his objections at a succeeding session of the same Congress, and that if he does not do so it has become a law, as if the Congress had been continuously in session. This theory runs counter to the plain and accepted meaning of the word ‘‘adjournment” as used in the Constitution and as understood by the Presidents from Washington to Cool- idge. When a session ends Congress has in- variably “adjourned.” In the old days some Presidents at succeeding sessions returned bills which reached them too late for action be- fore the preceding adjournment, but the Presidents as a rule have either signed bills within ten days or Jeft them to die unsigned following an adjournment of Congress, Bills left unsigned have not. been regarded as laws. If the Supreme Court should now hold that a bill not signed within ten days of its re- ceipt by the President becomes a law anyhow unless he returns it to Congress, either at the session when the bill was enacted or at a suc- ceeding session of the same Congress, then a lot of forgotten bills are now valid law. Pensions subjected to pocket veto by President Cleveland and other Presidents are valid claims and must be paid, if.the proposed new rule is to go into eff@ct. Some of the bills left unsigned by Presidents at the adjournment of Congress were of a genera! nature, affecting all the people. Attorney General Mitchell, in his brief opposing the attempt to destroy the - validity of the pocket veto, states that 120 measures which through a long course of years have been regarded as dead will have to be placed upon the statute books if the new theory is upheld. The confusion result- ing from this resurrection of dead legislation might be compared with the restoration of resurrected husbands and wives to the arms of spouses who remarried long ago. The remedy, of course, would be to repeal the re- vived legislation; but Congress might take it into its head to recoil against this legislative murder, just as a married couple might be reluctant to murder their suddenly resur- rected former mates. . The Constitution evidently intended that the President should have ten days in which to consider a bill, and that no bill should be- come law unless this ten days’ consideration could be given to it. But if the constitutional provision should be construed as is now pro- posed, a majority in Congress could post- pone a bill tothe last days of a session and then send it to the President and make it a law by adjourning before he could return it with his objections. | pan a a FEES FROM BROADCASTERS. When Commissioner Robinson, chairman of the Federal Radio Commission, told a Senate committee that it was his personal view that ‘a reasonable license fee comparable to the class of the station” might be imposed upon broadcasting licenses, the statement went gen- erally unnoticed. Now it has bobbed suddenly to the forefront by reason of a resolution passed in the closing days of Congress re- questing the commission to “formulate a sched- ule of fees to be recommended to Congress as the charges that should be made for the dit- ferent kinds of licenses issued by the commis- sion.”” Com@missioner Robinson’s statement was made in response to questioning rnegard- ing the $364,000 appropriation for the com- mission. It was his idea that this expense might be properly passed on to broadcasters, especially in view of the fact that commercial broadcasting has a money-making side. In connection with a broadcasting license fee, a question of principle is involved that demands discussion. The Radio Commission was set up in the public interest, just as was the Interstate Commerce Commission. The Radio Commis- sion preserves and protects the interest of broadcasters. The Interstate Commerce Com- mission functions similarly in behalf of the railroads. It might be desirable to charge broadcasters for the expenses of the Radio Commission, but if that be true, why should not Congress require the railroads to support the Interstate Commerce Commission? In view of the simple language of the Sen- ate resolution, it would seem that the Radio Commission has no choice but to formulate a scale of suggested license fees for broadcasters, KEEPING POLITICS ALIVE, In January, Gov. Roosevelt, of New York, publicly considered the state of the Demo- cratic party. » Never before in its history, he said, has there been shown so clearly a mili- tant, aroused and aggressive determination to continue actively.to fight not only with a View to the national election four years hence, but for the congressional elections of 1930 as well. To wage this fight Gov. Roose- velt counseled a departure from the previous practice of “laying the national committee carefully away in cotton wool after each elec- tion.”” The national committee was te be made a& permanent year-round body to keep Demo- cratic sentiment alive and to weld the party into a hompgeneous unit. A similar suggestion was advanced by Dr. Work, chairman of the Republican national committee, at its meeting on Tuesday. There exists at the present moment an organization that demonstrated its efficiency by the over- whelming majority for President Hoover. This organization, he said, should be maintained, at least in skeleton form. “I earnestly hope,” he added; “that State headquarters may be kept open continuously. They can, within themselves, dGemonstrate the necessity for their existence. Phe hurry, confusion and mis- directed energy incident toe hastily organising, The United States Supreme Court is to take~ | mind, hag puzzled scientists for years. THE WASHINGTON POST: operating and demobdilizing national head- quarters, with their thousands of helpers, in four; months, is only partially effective and unnecessarily expensive.” The wisdom of making a party a continuous working force is apparent. In the United States pojitical parties are moribund - except duribg campaigns, and they have been formed then onlyjin the most loosely knit fashion. A man may call himself a Republican or a Democrat; but the affiliation has little prao tical: effeet. It would be most beneficial to the American politica) system were party af- filiations| made to have actual, permanent meaning. : IVARIATION OF SPECIES. The biplogical phenomenon known as the of species, in the study of which larwin was the pioneer and master Simple individua variations, or those arising in cer- tain of the individuals of one parentage, were looked upon by Darwin as fortuitous, due to chance, o subject to the operation of natural sele¢tion.} In other words, it was considered that div gence in the character of offspring from that of the parents resulted by slow de- grees as the result of environmental changes. Variation frequently has been regarded as op- posed to/heredity, and greater understanding of its wadrkings is one of the chief problems in the study of evolution. Dr. F.| K. Richtmyer, professor of physics at Cornel} University, recently advanced a new thedry asito the underlying cause of the varia- tion of species. By exposing the eggs of the small frujt flies known as Drosophila to X-rays, he has found it possible to produce manifold and! extreme variations instantaneously. rays of the penetrating powers of X-rays are abla to produce startling variations in fruit flies, He|reasons that other rays of greater penétratipg power, such as the newly discov- ered cosmic rays of Dr. Millikan, which come upoh tha earth constantly from outer space, should exert a much greater effect. The theory is interesting, not only because it may gerve to shed further light upon the problem jf variation, but because, if it can be proved, of its possible practical effect. If, through | the centuries, variation has been caubed by the effect of undiscovered rays, their discovery and control may enable man to guide variations toward continual improvement. Fantasti¢ as this may seem, it is no more 80 thah was the idea, before the discovery and harnessing of the X-ray, that man could peer beneath tthe surface of the skin. f variation | Chatles WHITE HOUSE BABY { | If —iet From the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. Againgt the background of rather somber dighity set by the change of administration, it is goo to catch the lively figures of Peggy Ann and Herbert Hoover, jr., grandchildren of the ndw President, who for the time at least will be members of the White House family. Not since the regime of Theodore Roosevelt, we are eminded, have there been children in the White House, and of those only Quentin was.ssmall enough to have gushing visitors epéak to him in baby talk.

There has been no ahnountement made about the time the baby may spend in the White House, but it will be pleasant to many men and women if the Presi- dent decides to keep his grandson with him as long asi he stays. A baby would be an impor- tant resident in the White House. The Nation would enjoy the picture. | Not often has there been a baby in the fam- ily ‘of the President. The White House has been given over largely to the grownups. . And because youngsters have not been there the official residence of the President has lacked something, has failed to be a complete picture of the American home. Much of the time dur- ing the last half century there has been little of children or young people in the life there. The Raosevelt children were youngsters when their father was President. Baby McKee was there during a part of the Harrison adminis- tration, Nellie Grant won the hearts of the Nation/as a young lady when her father was Presidgnt, and history gives a conspicuous place I the Lincoln boy who was his father’s special’ companion during some of the dark er of the Civil War. Presjdent Hoover, more than any other of all the/ Presidents, is associated with home life and children because of his work as food ad- ministfator and as director of the Belgian re- Hef fund. With that background the Nation would rejoice if the Hoover administration has, among other appealing features, a lively, healthy baby in the White House.

Regulate the Stock Exchange. To the Editor of The Post+—Sir: It is time this country got wise to the fact that it is just as necessary to regulate stock exchanges by law as any other business to inflate values on false earn- ings. Why should this country permit a few irresponsible gamblers to get all the credit they want in banks? Large corporations should also be curbed from loaning money for stock gam- bling as they now do. We can not per- mit the country’s welfare to be de- stroyed by a lot of criminals who ought to be in prison instead of using the country’s money for swindling the pub- lic by inflation of values. JOHN WILSON, What About the Youth? To the Editor of The Post—Sir: There is one problem which confronts the American people today which is far more important to the future than tariff revision, farm relief, the World Court, or even the Kellogg peace pact. It 1s one upon which all the future of the country hangs. Other problems are only temporary, while thé prob- lem to which I refer is one of present and of permanent danger. I mean the increasing prevalence of crime among the youth. It is an alarming situation. The fu- ture of the country must and will de- pend upon the youth of the country, yet that youth is rapidly drifting into crime, There must be some cause for it. Is there a remedy? Can that rem- edy be found and applied? It must be found, and it must be applied if Amer- ica is to coritinue as it is today—the head of the nations The crime that ig sO prevalent is of every phase, of every degree. & ranges from petty stealing to highway robbery and mur- der. The most horrible part of it is that it is not confined to one sex, but girls as well as boys are listed among the perpetrators. To find the cause and apply the remedy is the great duty of the church, of legislators, of soeial organizations. Some time ago an association in New York propounded to a selected num- ber of prominent citizens, including clergymen, lawyers, doctors, merchants, manufacturers, a series of questions as to the cause of so great an increase in youthful criminals. They all placed “bad companionship” as one of the causes, Seven of the ten classes ques- tioned placed it at the head of the list Bad companionship! Who is most to blame if their children fall into bad company? Is the blame to rest on s0- ciety, on the system of education, on the church, or on the parents? In one of his many remarkable speeches the late President Benjamin Harrison told his audience that the future of Ameri- ‘can independence depended upon Amer- ican homes; that if there was no real home life, there would cease to be good citizens, and without good citizens no government could long survive. If idle- ness leads to vice, and then to crime, a3 all history proves to be so, then in- dustry must lead in the other direc- tion, to virtue and honesty. When Congress adopted that wonderful ordi- nance of 1787, organizing the Northwest Territory, it declared that “Religion, morality and education are necessary to good citizenship.” That statement is as true today as it was in 1787, Good citizenship in the future de- pends upon the youth of the present time. They must be saved from shift- ing into crime. How? That is for so- ciety to solve, and it must be speedily solved, E. P. CHAMBERLAIN. Senator Jones on Prohibition.

EN The wolves were protected by the law, and the herder could neither shoot nor trap them. They prowled in the underbrush day and night; and despite the herder’s efforts to frighten them away, they killed more “It is a great We must While the law protects the wolves But if the This seemed reasonable to.the rich man and he used his influence to The herder bought scores of dogs and set traps and used his gun; and before the moon had waxed and waned again, every wolf in the “Now,” said the herder, “all will be well.” But he was mistaken.

Each morning the herder found the mangled remains of some fat ewe or a helpless lamb, and as the days passed the number of slain sheep steadily “The wolves at their worst did-.less damage than this,” said the ‘If I didn’t know better, I would think the wolves still here When the,rich man discovered this new and greater destruction of his property, he made a hurried investigation and delivered an ulti- “kill them.” “But, no,” cried the astonished herder.

The press reports Senator Jones as saying “* * * it should be possible to enforce the prohibition laws effec- tively. *% °° Oo” No one better than Senator Jones knows that the Senate aided in enact- ing prohibition laws, the enforcement of which absolutely precludes the en- forcement of prohibition laws. No one better than Senator Jones knows that the Coolidge administration was forced by the occurrente of events to choose between attempting to en- force the eighteenth amendment of the Constitution and the Volstead law and attempting to enforce the prohibition treaty laws, which, according to the finding of the Supreme Court, legalize acts in nullification of the eighteenth amendment and in. violation of the Volstead law. No one, better than Senator Jones knows that the Coolidge administration chose to enforce the prohibition treaty laws and thereby Sequired Mrs. Wille- brandt and Dr. Doran to nullify the eighteenth amendment and violate the Volstead law every day of the week, ‘Sundays and holidays included. No one, better than Senator Jones, knows that the Hoover administration must follow the lead of the Coolidge administration as to the enforcement of prohibition laws which absolutely prevent enforcement of prohibition laws, It would be quite right and proper for Senator Jones to join in the chorus raised by prominent parsons, some sena- tors and others who, while utterly in- capable of assimilating even the littlest kind of thinks, continuously can emit resounding emotional sounds and in that chorus warble about the enforce- ment of prohibition. Theoretically the practically impos- sible prohibition can be enforced, but prohibition laws never during the preva- lence of the present legal condition which require the enforcement of pro- hibition laws to prevent the enforce- ment of prohibition laws.

He threw himself into a chair and ered) at it incredulously, as if he knew it ‘must be an hallucination. At length he remembered the porter’s having mentioned a letter, and his glance strayed to his chest of drawers. There, perched on the pincushion, was an en- velope addressed in a precise familiar hand—the hand of Terry, Wheater, al- ways. the scribe of the other children when their letters were to be subjected to grown up criticlsm. Boyne tore the ‘envelope open and read: “Darling Martin: “We are all of us sending you this lovely cradle for your wedding present because we suppose you are going to be married very soon, as we think Mrs. Sellars has gone to Paris to order her trousseau. And because you have been like a father to us we hope and pray you will soon be a real father to a lot of lovely little childrer. of your own, and they will all sleep in this cradle, and then you will think of “Your loving Judith, Terry Blanca—” Under the last of the rudimentary signatures Chipstone had scrawled his mark; and below it was a_ scribbled postscript from Judith: “Darling, I open this while Terry's not looking to say he said we oughternt to call the cradle lovely, but it is lovely and we wanted you to know it was.

WESTBROOK PEGLER writes on the latest events of sport. } New York World Service United Press could no longer put on sending some kind of answer. Only, what could he say? Being with the children all day and every day, sharing théir meals, their games and scrambles, had gradually detached his thoughts from Mrs. Sel- lers, reducing her once more to the lovely shadow she had so long been; with the difference that she was now a shadow irrevocably, whereas before he had always believed she might be- come substantial. Finally he girt him- self to the task; and at once his irrita- tion, his impatience, med to ma- terlalize her again, as if she were fated to grow real only when she thwarted or opposed him. He wondered if that were ‘another of the (peculiarities of being in love. “People get too close to each other—they can’t see each other for the nearness, I suppose,” he reflected, not altogether satisfied with this explanation. He wrote: “And as to what you propose about the chil- dren, do please believe that I don’t mean to be unreasonable—but, unless I’m a little mad, your, suggestion ap- parently amounts to this: that I should shove them straight batk into the hell I’ve temporarily got them out of. For them that hell, at least the worst of it, is being separated from each other; and you ask me to separate them, when to keep them together is: the one thing that they and I have béen fighting for. I make no comment on your proposal to hand over the younger ones to Lady Wrench and Buondelmonte; women like you are what they are at the price of not being able even to picture such people as those two. Bit 1 know what they are, and never, as long as I can help it, will I be a party to giving back into such hands these children who A have trusted me. And when you say that Judith, thanks to whom the younger ones have developed a sense of solidarity and mutual trust in a worid which is the very negation of such feel- ings—that Judith should be asked to see her work deliberately wrecked, and all the feelings she has cultivated ‘in the others trampled on——” He broke off, flung down the pen, and sat hope- lessly staring at what he had written. “Oh, hell—that’s no use,” he groaned. The truth was that, even in his most rebellious moments, he could not trick himself into the idea that he had a grievance against Mrs. Sellars. In rea!- ity it was the other way round. When - he had gone to Venice to negotiate with the Wheaters about the future of their mutinous family he had gone as an affianced man. In pledging himself to his strange guardianship he had vir- tually pledged Mrs. Sellars also, and without even making his promise de- pend on her consent. He had simply assumed that because she loved him she would approve of whatever he did, would accept any situation he chose to put her in. He had behaved, in short, like a romantic boy betrothed to a dreamer of his own age. All this was true, and it was true also that Mrs. Sellars had never reproached him with it. The sense of her magnanimity de- prived his argument of all its force, and benumbed his angry pen. He pushed away the letter, pulled out another sheet and scrawled on it; “Awfully sorry but can not undo what I have done do try to understand me dearest.” Yes, a telegram was better; easier to write, at any rate * * * He tore up the letter, put on his hat, and DOBBS HATS READY TO WEAR.

For its answer he had only twenty- four hours to wait; and when Mrs. Sel- lar’s telegram came it merely said: “‘] do understand your letter follows. > * *” Well, that was not unsatis- factory, as far as it went; but when two days more had elapsed, it was not a let- ter but a small registered packet which the postman put into Boyne’s hands. Even in the act of signing the receipt, at his very first glance, he had guessed what the packet contained, He went up to his room, a little dizzy with the abruptness of the event, and angrily ripped off seal and string revealing the morocco box he had expected to find there. For a minute or two he sat look- ing at the box, almost as unconscious of what he was feeling as a man in the first minute or two after being stabbed or shot. “So that’s that,” he said aloud. But what “that” was going to be he had as yet no notion. It was a wound, of course—but was it mortal? He didn’t know. Suddenly, with a mumbled curse at his own plight, he snapped the box open and saw a thin slip of paper twisted about the sap- phire ring. On the paper he read: ‘1 Shall always remember; I shall never resent; and that fs why I want you to give this to some woman who can make you as happy as you have made me.’ He pitched the box and the paper aside, and hid his face in his hands.|- After all he must have loved her, he supposed— or at least the vision of her which their long separation had created. * *- (Continued Tomorrow.). ; i Fairfax dentia Hotel of Distinction Massacnusetrs Ave, ‘. xclusively Central A charming 6th floor suite— with sweeping views on three sides.

Uncle Ray’s Corner The Story in a Tree. N the British Museum, London, ] there is a section of the trunk of a giant tree. It is 16 feet from side to side, and weighs about nine tons. f S dl WY Y fa {\ | : — —_—-- sad belated tnfhad a aes ttc ala eee . i Lae bn es dias Ject'‘on of a Big Tree, dated according to the rings. —_ oe There is an interesting story in that tree. It grew in California, and the part of the trunk was shipned t. England after the cutting of the tree. As you study this museum/ object, you find that it has hundreds af ring’. Each ring is a sign of a new year of growth. There are 1341 rings; sc we may place the first year of the tree back in the year 550. Think of that! The tree started to grow soon after the Roman Empire was overrun by German tribes. Starting as a mers sapling, it rose to a height of more than 100 feet in the course of a few centuries. The tree was growing well when Leif Ericson drifted to the North American coast about the year 1000. Almost 500 years later—in | 1492~— Columbus sailed to the islands south of Florida. The tree was still standing still alive and growing larger. Magellan made his famous voyage. Cartier, Champlain and LaSalle explor- ed tre New World. Still the big tree was growing in its mountain home in California. Like the river in the poem, the biz tree might have said: “Men may come and men may go, but I go on for- ever.” That little piece is not true, because rivers do not go on forever’.— they dry up, sooner’ or later et both rivers and big trees continue their lives while men are born and die Trees live in a more complete sense than rivers. The big tree 1 have described is not the oldest of known trees. I shall speak of still older ones in the story) tomor- THE WASHINGTON Roof Aitials Eliminated in ~ New Hotels R. C. A. Is Negotiating to Install Centralized System Also in Apart- ment Buildings to Be Constructed in Capital. Negotiations are under way with sev- eral hotelsand apartments under con- struction in Washington for a com- plete and entirely new system of radio installation. names at this time, it is true that builders of several new hotels are ac- tively considering installing our re- cently invented centralized radio sys- tems,” F. P. Guthrie, District manager of the Radio Corporation of America, said, when asked about the proposi- tion yesterday. “One of these systems is specially designed for apartment houses and the other for notels. In the apartment house equipment there is a central antenna with outlets in each apartment, where the tenants may at- tach their own sets. “One antenna takes care of 80 sets. In the case of some of the larger apartment houses in Washington more than one antenna would have to be provided. This does away with the forest of wires. gets rid of unsightly poles and reduces the hazard for fire- have access to roofs.” Although improvised antenna sys- | tems have been provided on apartments here, it is said the new system of the R. C. A. is the first standardized equip- ment of this kind. “Briefiy,the centralized radio hotel installation comprises a central receiv; ing unit, with one, two, three or four ‘channels,’ each tuned to a different program, a powerful and highly effi- cient amplifying unit, and a number of automatic controls,” Mr. Guthrie con- tinued. “There is the distribution system, which takes the programs to all parts of the hotel. Lastly, there is the listen- ing-in equipment, which takes the form of headphones or loudspeakers, install- ed tn each room. The loudspeaker is equipped with a manual volume con- trol as well as with a channel selector switch, which permits the occupant of the room to enjoy a choice of pro- grams. There is also a time switch, which staris and stops the programs |automatically at any designated hour.” The first major hotel installation has just been made by the R. C. A. in the new Allerton House in Chicago, to guests in 887 of its 990 rooms. As in the case of electric lights, it is easier to make such an installation as the hotel or apartment house is being built, though the installation could be made later at more expehse, Mr. Guthrie said. “Chick” Godfrey’s Radio Entertain- ers, including most of the featured artists from Station WJSV, will appear in person at Odd Fellows Hall, Claren- don, Va., in a radio revue and concert next Saturday at 8:15 p. m. Those at- tending will be given a peep into a ra- dio studio and will see their favorite performer from WJSV as he or she ap- pears before the “mike” in the studio.

(Courtesy of the Maison Redfern, Paris.) New York, March 10, 1929. HE enduring vogue of the scarf makes ever increasing demands upon the originality of their cre- ators. One finds them of wool and of silk infinitely diverse in form. With the sports dress of jersey, one inevitably finds the square of triangu- lar scarf, knotted at the neck. With dressier ensembles, one finds the cou- turlers viewing with each other to find new,and original way of making them A t of the costume. Often they are cut)as a part of the bodice, falling at the |back over one shoulder, lending to the ‘silhouette. The newest fancy in this line is.the scarf, which is embroildered with the crest of Miladi’s automobile. Thus for she who drives an Hispano, a graceful, modernistic stork adorns the end of the scarf. For the Peugeot, a lion; for the little Citreon, the military chev- rons such as trademark th’ radiator; for the Lorraine Dietrich, the double cross of Lorraine; for the Ballot, an an- chor. And for the lovely lady who does not boast a car—— or of it-———there is an ever increasing number of beautiful scarfa, some of brilliant Scotch plaid, some of modernistic designs encrusted in various colors of material, instead of being printed as in .seasons past. Now what do you think I'll tell you how to make in-this week’s leaflet, for which you may send a stamped enve- lope to the Dare Department of the Washington Post? A epring cape-coat for a young girl! Using just two and a half yards of ma- terial, which isn’t such a lot, now, is it? And quite easy to make——and truly ever so smart. It may be just the thing you want——better send for it and see! With hint of spring in the air one’s thoughts turn inevitably to ensembles —-ginee fashion has decreed that definite one’s coat must have some / ot / \ * of connection with the gown with which it ls worn. So Redfern let us sketch for you this extremely smart ensemble, with its chic coat of gray woolen fabric trimmed with gray fox, and a triangular cloth cape of the material in the back, which follows the triangular point of the fur. The dress is of gray georgette, with a) very interesting circular front panel held tn place by stitching which is re- peated in front and back and at the back of the coat. Boite du Chapeau Now we know what happens to old phonagraph needles! They get gather- ed up secretly, and get put to a myé- terious use by a clever Parisian. mod- iste. And then they appear in the form of a miltant looking little band of shining, upstanding, rigidly flexible points, if you see what I mean—all around the crown of a smart felt hat! I am positive that we will find a use for burnt-out radio tubes and used safety-razor blades next. Madame Dare's articles appear ex-~- clusively in The Post in Washington.

EAR MISS M’DONALD: I have D read your article and would like to get your opinion of men who make dates and then break them for the least little thing. I have been “going” with a fellow for about six months and I like him better every time I see him, but he has broken my heart. He will make a date with me and then call up and say he can not keep it. I told him I did not care, but my heart just stopped beating. Every date he has made with me was what you would call a. last-minute date, or, in other words, he would call up and want to come around right that minute. Of course, I would say “ves,” because I was crazy about him. He is not good-looking nor does he earn a large salary, like some of the fellows I could have dates with, but I would rather walk a mile with him than ride in the best car made with fhe best looking man in town. I have had the chance, but I guess I’m a fool to sit and wait for him night after night, hoping he will call. I would not coax him to come wp, because I have heard a boy friend laughing at a girl because he had to argue with her for almost an hour to break a date he had made with her He said girls could not afford to be so particular about thelr dates, because they would be old maids if they got too ‘| particular, and a fellow could get @ date from any girl and break it if he chose to do so. Perhaps you will say I should excuse him if he gave me a good excuse, but how can I tell whether he Is telling me the truth, as I have heard his friend telling of lies and excuses he gave his = and how foolish she was to believe m. I'd do nothing but cry every night over him and keep thinking how foolish Iam to care, but I can’t help it. I wouldn't let my mother or father know how much I care. That’s why I would like to get your advice, for I can write and tell some one how I feel, but I would not have courage to express my feelings with words, for I would burst into tears, although I pretend I'm as carefree as any other flapper. Please let me hear from you soon. l will look for my answer in the paper and will be ever so grateful for your rdvice. I am 20 and he is 24, P. S—They say flappers are gold- diggers and are hard-hearted, but I think most of them are just like my- self—and that is, they have “soft spots” in their hearts for some fellow. and have dreams. Those little homes and babies that they hope will De theirs some day. What do you think? B. H. F. Well we could pass a law against breaking dates, but that would only cause more dates to be broken. How- ever,. we can at least discipline the date-breaker. Why, for instante, do you make a second date with a man who calls up to cancel one? Why not exercise a little good old-fashionsd will power nd decline the invitation? And, by all means, if you can “date” the best-looking man in town, do it! It may not mean much to you the first time, but after a while you may discover that it is a lot more enjoyable to go riding with him than to ait home mooning over somebody else. Never sit at home waiting for any man. Go out. Enjoy yourself. Be out when he calls and when he rings up. And in a month you won't care whether or not ie ever does either Try it.

Now music, through the radio, is en- tering your soul as it is mine. And it’s because I want our boys and giris to get, early in life, that unity for musical expression which is in the soul of all of us that I am writing this series of articles about music for children. The artist in concert halls may com- mand fabulous sums. A ‘broadcast of music may cost a small fortune. But character, through music, isn’t built that way. Music presented in this fashion doesn’t provide for emotional outlets. It is in the home where the greatest value of music can come through ensemble playing among those of the family circle. But how are the children going to do any ensemble work until they have learned to do a little playing by ardu- ous months of pounding. tooting or sawing out their “do, re, mi’s?” That is where the homemade ins ents I spoke of last week do their bit, They will be simple enough so that the youngsters can play tunes on tliem, and, equally important, play them together.

EW YORK, March 10 (A.P.).—If all goes well, the next big heavy- weight battle will take place in the Yankee Stadium June 27, with Max Schmeling, of Germany, in one corner and Paulino Uzcudun,. Spanish woodchopper, in the other. Tom McArdle, matchmaker at Madi- 60n Square Garden, annownced tenta- tive plans for the fight today. No ‘contracts have been signed nor has the Garden definitely committed itself to the bout. The directing heads of the corporation may attend to that at a meeting scheduled for tomorrow. There is a big question of whether Schemeling can clear himself of a plethora of managers in time to go through the match. Herr Max, whose stock took a remarkable jump when he stopped Johnny Risko, now is ,in Germany. He is convinced that he has too many managers for his own good and he plans to cut down the number in some way even if it means fistic idleness fot a year or 50. Winner to Meet Jack Sharkey In September, Present Plan. . However, if Schmeling signs there -seems to be little doubt that the Gar- den will be able to make the match without difficulty. Under present plans the winner would be sent against Jack Sharkey in a big outdoor match in September. Mc- Ardie, however, is not so sure about that angle. He is waiting to see whether Otto Von Porat, the heavy punching Norwegian, can decisively beat Tom Heeney at Chicago Tuesday might. If Von Porat knocks out ‘“Honest Tom” or beats him decisively he may get a match with the winner of the Schmeling-Paulino battle. The ultimate survivor then would meet Sharkey.

Fighters are always falling over their dogs and hurting themselves on the eve of tough engagements and have a way of con- tracting all the miseries that afflict mankind in the shadow of a-licking. Wherefore, although unjustly some- times, the sporting world always sniffs for the smell of “boloney” when an en- try is withdrawn for any reason. Last week saw a conspicuous exception to the rule when Madge Miller, of Detroit, defaulted to Helen Hicks in the Florida East Coast championship golf tourney. Miss Miller was in altsost vulgar good health, while Miss Hicks was so ill that she could not possibly have done her- self anywhere near justice even if her doctor allowed her to go through with the match. Miss Miller would have been within her rights in forcing Miss Hicks to play or default, but she did the sporting thing and defaulted her- self knowing that Miss Hicks, in nor- mal health, is her golfing superior. A day of rest and medical care thus gained enabled Miss Hicks to remain in the tournament, while all hands dp- plauded the sportsmanship of Miss Miller. Bike Riderg, Paired by Manager Must Accept Company, Good or Bad. Among numerous other reasons for grumbling by six-day bike race riders is the fact that: under present condi- tions in the cycling world a rider has to accept a pdrtner chosen for him by the management. In the old days riders used as much care in selecting racing partners as they did in selecting wives, and in some cases. probably more. Now the riders. are paired by the management with an eye single to box office reactions. So ruthless is the Management that it would not hesitate to pair a Corkonian with an Ulster man merely to be able to advertise an Irish team.

In most of his bouts in the last two years Ace's problem has been re- ducing instead of building up. He now scales about 157. Nurmi’s Ban Served to Show Him A, A. U. le Boss. The circumstances surrounding the suspension and reinstatement of Paavo Nurmi recall the bridegroom avho turned on his new life partner as soon as the clergyman had established the firm and floored her with a swing to the jaw. When she came to he admitted she had done nothing to displease him, but explained that he just wanted to let her know who was boss and to let her know what to expect if she proved de- linquent at any time. When the A. A. U.. recently suspended Nurmi for. cut- ting a running class in the national indoor championships, it was clear that it had nothing on the Finn but suspi- cion that his alibi of a cold was phoney. Yet it suspended Nurmi “pending fur- ther investigation,” presumably of the whereabouts of a postmarked envelope after leaving the A. A.

Nines Have Produced Many Big League Players Hilltop Has Sent Stars to Major Leagues Since 90’s; Three Now Under Big Tent; Devlin, of Giants, Was Georgetown Player. By JACK ESPEY. T HERE have been reams written 3 and much oratory sounded about the numerous big league base- ball players produced by the Univer- sity of Alabama. It has been said that Alabama holds the championship—if such the imagination can manufacture about the subject—for = more baseball players to the major leagues than any other institution of higher learning in the country. This is true concerning the modern tra. only. Today, Alabama boasts of five players who have either made good or are making “on the big time.” Joe Sewell, third baseman, and brother, Luke. catcher of the Cleve- land Indians; Riggs Stephenson, out- fielder of the Chicago Cubs;- Grant Gillis, shortstop of the Boston Red ee te een > pearance.

' But if you will search your memory or ask dad, you probably will find out that a university of your own ‘home- city — Georgetown —- has turned out the largest number of intellectually in- clined major leaguers. That appears to be the fact unearthed by considerable digging into the records. Georgetown Has Three Players Now in Livery of Majors. Including three who wear major league livery at present, there have been at least twelve former wearers of the Blue and Gray, who capitalized in the field of highest-grade ‘basehal] on the education they received at the Hilltop diamond. , Del Bissonette, Clyde Sukeforth and Tony Plansky are the trio now “up there.” Bissonette is the heavy hitting regular first baseman for the Brooklyn Robins. Baserall writers have predict- ed he will shine even brighter this year than he did last, when he was one éf the leading sluggers of the National League. | Sukeforth at present is bidding for the first-string catching | assignment with the Cincinnati Reds; but he is having a hard time of it with old Val Picinich, former National, hanging around Plansky, the grfeatest all- around athlete ever graduated from Georgetown, is taking a fling at pitch- ing for the Boston Braves,’ who signed him this winter on the récommenda- tion of John D. O'Reilly, Georgetown’s track coach, formerly mehtor in all sports at the Hilltop. | Mahoney and Harley Made Grade As Big Leaguers in 90's. Going back to the earliest days of the connection of Georgetown with ma- jor league baseball, you will’ find George (“Big Mike”) Mahoney, piteher for the old Boston Nationals, and Dick Harley, Cincinnati outfielder, who ‘graduated in the early 90s and went directly into big league careers. renowned third baseman of the New York Giants, who played regulatly for ten years. In his Georgetown! days Devlin was better known for his foot- ball accomplishment... but! soon after making baseball his profession he de- veloped far more prowess 6n the dia- mond than he had on the gridiron. Then there was Doc White, present athletic adviser of the Washington pub- lic high schools, who southpawed his way to fame with the Chicago White | Sox at the time when the White sox were known as the “Hitless Wonders.” "White threw a curve ball which few pitchers since have been able to imi- tate with the effectiveness that was his Charley Moran Once Performed At Short for Pitteburgh.

Goslin, Judge, Jones Arrive; Latter Talks Terms 4 Hours. By FRANK H. YOUNG (Staff Correspondent of The Post). AMPA, Fla., March 10—The luck which Al Schacht declares has followed Walter Johnson for a scores of years in casino games seems to be sticking wi the Old Master in his rookie days as a major league manager. Besides handling his charges in games throughout a season, one of the most important set of duties which a team pilot has is the separating of the sheep from the goats at the spring training camp. When Waltet’s appointment was an- nounced he agapparently had quite a problem on his hands, with a vacancy at second base and another question mark tn connection with the short fleld job, the two positions being the most important to fill of any, hardly had Johnson put his foot in the stirrups when Buddie Myer was acquired from Boston, assigned the third base job, and Ossie Bluege shifted to short. These were theoretical moves at the time but have become actual ones since the training season started. Bluege’s work at short suddenly hds cleared the situation and Johnson him- self admits that other conditions have since developed which make it almost impossible for him to make a mistake in the selection of his team. The catching and outfield questions will take care of themselves, while it is a certainty that, from among s0 many rookie pitchers, Johnson will have no trouble eliminating two or three with no pangs of regret or fears that he is making mistakes. Infield Problem Has Already Answered Itself at Tampa. And the infield problem also has an- swered itself with the fine showing of Hayes, Cronin, Stewart and Gooch. Despite the fact that he has shown exceptional ability, enough to make some other teams in the league, Elmer Yoter will be the lad go. Retaining the four hamed above, in addition to Myer, Bluege and Judge, will give Johnson a banner infield with plenty of capable understudies. Should Hayes win the s€cond base berth, Stew- art will be right there to keep him hus- tling and to relieve him or any other slow man when additional speed is needed on the bases. Cronin is a first- class shortstop, while Gooch is a nat- ural third sacker, who is showing up exceptionally well at first, making him awallable for use in three positions, as he also plays short. In.addition he gives indication of being a hard hitter As pitchers and the mound staff will make or break the team, it is too early even to do any guessing, but sev- eral are showing enough to give John- son hope that they will be of consid- erable help and: he is rather optimistic, figuring, of course, that his holdovers, Jones, Braxton, Hadley and Marberry, will do as well as they did last year. The last two named are expected to do better. Outfielder Goose Goslin and First Baseman Joe Judge arrived here this morning from Hot Springs. They re- ported plenty of cold weather, includ- ing a heavy snowstorm at the Spa, but despite this managed to get in consid- erable work. Pitcher “Sad Sam” Jones arrived here just before supper tonight and immedi- ately after eating he and President Clark Griffith went into a conference over salary terms. The sad one must be quite a debater, fcr late tonight, after a discussion lasting more than four heurs, the Nat owner announced that the pitcher had not yet accepted terms. Goslin Declares He Has Full Use of His Arm. Goslin declares that his throwing arm, which was practically useless most of last season, will be O. K. during the coming one, and Judge backs him up. “We did considerable catching at the springs,” said Joe, “and the Goose, al- though not cutting loose, had plenty on the ball. Take it from me, he will be as good as ever this year.” A busy week faces the Nationals, with five games scheduled ‘in addition to today’s game with the Tampa Club. On Tuesday the Braves will be met at St. Petersburg. while the Cardinals will be played at Avon Park on Thursday and Friday. On Saturday and Sunday Johnson’s men will act as hosts to the Braves here. For Tuesday's contest, Lloyd Brown, Ad Liske and Bob Burke will draw the pitching assignments, COMPETE IN SOUTH ATLANTIC TOURNAMENT ] * > Oe . 7 ONT IN, i SS OU Sn S: gee tee en ee Nm ca ¢ William Forsythe, Post Staff Photographer.

HE third annual South Atlantic tournament, staged here by The Washington Post, will start to- night on the regulation court of the George Washington University at 2010 H “street northwest, starting at 65 o'clock. The opening whistle, which will send the Y. M. C. A. Aztecs and the St. John’s Flashes into a struggle against elimination for the District championship and the right ‘to repre- sent Washington in the play-off with the Baltimore champions for South Atlantic A. A. U. honors and the team trophy and individual medals emblem- atic of the championship, will mark the start of the greatest basket ball event ever held in this seciion. The 89 teams, which set a new rec- ord for the number of A. A. U. basket ball entries in one city, will compete in more than 78 games before the champions of thr seven ‘classes are determined. The George Washington Gymnasium promises_to see a bedlam of action every night during the tour- nament. There are a very few teams which are unknown to District fans in the tournament. With every game bound to be a struggle against elimination and with all of the best teams in the city entered, local court followers are offered the treat of the season. Tournament Games Offered at Less Than. 5 Cents Each. The South Atlantic tournament committee has set a nominal fee of 25 cents for admission to the tourna- ment, which gives fams a chance to witness six games at a cost of less than 5 cents a game. The luck of the draw, brought one of the best first-round programs for tonight. Included in the six-game pro- gram is one game in each of the male classes with two contests in which un- limited fives will fight it out. While chief interest, especially among | nonpartisan fans, is in the two unlim- ited games, there are several contests among the light clubs which promise as much if not more action than the heavywelght: matches. Hyattsville, which backed the Com- p ny F Guardsmen to the limit last year, will have another chance tonight to see its favorites in action in the first unlimited game of the tournament. The Guards are meeting another sub- urban club in the Remsens, of Takoma Giant Autos Try Today; Storm Levels Beach for Record AYTONA BEACH, Fla., March 10 (A.P.).—Rain and northeast winds of almost | gale proportions today prevented Maj. H. O. D. Segrave, of England, and J. M. White, of Philadel- phia, from attempting to break the automobile speed record. The rain subsided enough during the morning to permit inspection of the 9-mile ocean speedway by Maj. Segrave The major said the pounding of the waves and rain had improved the beach 100 per cent and that.ideal conditions should prevail for the trials tomorrow The major has in readiness his new Golden Arrow racer, with which he hopes to exceed the present record of 207.55 miles an) hour, held by J M White’s triplex.

Beach. Despite the delay, the weather con- ditions delighted Maj. Seagrave and White. Meteorologists had pointed out to them that not until a heavy sea and a strong northeast wind ironed out the hard, wave-lapped course could they expect a beach suitable for the high speed they hope to attain. White, who as a Philadelphia manu- & facturer, built the triplex as a hobby, had not selected:a driver for the ma- chine tonight. He said today if he did not drive the machine himself he probably Would give the opportunity to Lee Bible, a mechanic at the garage where the triplex is housed .here. Bible Has Won White's Confidence And May Drive Triplex. Bible, who never has driven racing machines except at a few dirt tracks in Florida, and on the beach, is an unkown figure in racing circles out- side the State. He has done consid- able mechanical work on the triplex for White and has won the Phila- delphian’s confidence as a driver of the record-holding car. White said that at one time he had considered the engagement of such colorful figures in the racing world as Ralph de Palma and Bob McDonough. but that he had taken such a per- sonal liking to Bible because of the latter’s assistance in helping him con- dition the triplex that he may decide to let the mechanic have the oppor- tunity of making a name for himself in the racing world. On the day of the trials White first will try his own hand at the wheel, he said, and if he finds he can not handle the machine at high speed he will turn it over to Bible. < TOURNAMENT PROGRAM Place—George Washington University Gymnasium, 2010 H street northwest.

Bramstar raced to the place, with Lac- tarius third. The winner was a luke- warin favorite, but the victory proved & popular one. Danger Signal raced in close pursult of the pace, assumed the lead in the stretch run and had speed in reserve. Bramstar went into command imme- diately, displayed good speed and saved ground, but was not good enough. Lac- tarius saved ground throughout and went well. Ideal weather prevailed and, being next to the last Sunday of the meet, there was no abatement of the crowd. The racing, on the whele, was spirited, and the majority of the winners were forced to sustain drives. EX-VIOLET ACE AT READING.

By BENNY LEONARD (Retired Lightweight Champion). EW YORK, March 10 (N.Y.W.NS.). Whenever fight fans gather and ‘begin fanning about Jimmy Siat- tery, there's one strain to the discus- sion, and that is this: Slattery can beat So-and-so—provided Slattery is in condition. It is never a question of Slattery's ability as a fighter: it’s al- ways merely a question of his condl- tion. It was not so many years ago that most of the critics whose opinions are worth-while were unanimous in their predictions that some day Slattery would scale the heights and rest on the topmost pinnacle. And then he met the lantern-jawed Dave Shade at the Polo Grounds and the big was sprung—Slattery was knocked out Dy the smaller man From that time on Slattery slipped rapidly downward, until all but his close loyal friends gave him up for a false alarm has-been. Braddock Ile Stiff Test for Once Promising Fighter But now we have Slattery, the Buf- falo boy, coming back. He will meet a pretty stiff test when he faces James J. Braddock in the Garden ring tomor- row night, but I believe he will redeem himself. I believe he will win. I say this because I am told that Slattery is rounding back into the con- dition that he had when he was. a flaring youngster, blazing his way up toward the top in brilliant fashion— such brilliant fashion that the fans were even then talking of a match be- tween him and Jack Dempsey. . This chap Braddock has a great right- hand smash. . But you have to land a great right- hand smash, or it loses its effectiveness entirely. I do not believe that Brad- dock will be able to land his right ef- fectively enough to hurt Slattery, and I do believe that Slattery will be able to land often enough and solidly enough on Braddock to not only hurt him, but to bring home the decision to the Buffalo lad. Slattery Knewe All the Tricks of The Trade; Can Time Punches Slattery knows all the tricks of the trade. He is a pastmaster in the art of evading punches; he knows how to slip them and sidestep, and he knows how to hit and how to time his punches. The only question, as | said at the beginning. is his condition. I meru by this not how well he looks, but how well is he trained inside. How's his heart? And has he got the stamina? There’s no question whatsoever of his gameness. But I have seen Slattery go into a fight when he had to husband his strength, conserve his energy and spread his vigor evenly throughout the ten rounds, or the fifteen, whichever the case might be. The fact that he had to do this in order to be able to travel the entire distance made him go along more slowly. made him coast more than he would have done had he been in the perfect physical condition that a young man of his years should have been, Not only “Slats,” as he came to be known affectionately by his friends, ‘tells me that he is really tn good condi- tion, but those close to him, who have been observing him carefully for somie time past, verify his contention that he is “right”"—and if he is, then he ought to defeat Braddock. Slattery is out to win this battle. He realizes at last that in order to get where in the fight game one has to rifice a lot of good times and put what I call the drudgery of training. And if he does realize this, and has been acting as they Battery Candidates Drill At 4 of Local High Schools Title Series to Start April 12; Longer Series Advocated by Kelley. By MIKE KELLEY (Eastern High School Coach). W "iz one exception, battery can- didates of al] local public high achools] are busily engaged in the various gymnasiums and will be out- doors at the first break in the weather. priming for the opening of the inter- high baseball series on April 12, the week following the Easter holidays. Business is the lone exception, but is expected to swing into line with the others in a few days. Eastern and Central are fortunate in that they have their own fields on which to practice, while Western, Tech and Business must journey about the city to get in shape. This is no small handicap to the mentors of the schools concerned However, Tech will have its-own stadium in which to drill be- fore another baseball season (rolls around and a regulation baseball dia- mond may then be available to the high schools. Central’s Short Right Field Makes Pop Flies Easy Hits. Central Stadium, scene of the inter- high series for many seasons, remains unsatisfactory because of the extremely shortgright field, which makes a joke of balls "hit in that direction. Pop files that ordinarily would be easy outs on a regular diamond fall over the wall for singles and doubles, while on the other hand, low line drives from left-hand hitters that seem labeled basse ere, by ground rules, limited to one base Of course, all teams are penalized equally by the ground rules, but the series games would be far more interesting on a larger diamond. fro extra The writer has always felt that the petted consisting of one game against the other schools, does not always bring out the best team as a two-game series would, and hopes to see the day when the baseball series will be con- ducted sfmilar to the basket ball series with 20 games played. This has been tried before, but the main difficulty arose from the fact that Central Sta- dium alone was used and postpone- ments from inclement weather caused the series to grow listless. Tech to Have Diamond in 1930, Making Three in High Group. This difficulty could be straightened out next year when three diamonds will be available, namely. Central, Tech and Eastern. A 20-game series would probably revive some of the interest in interhigh baSeball and would relieve the necessity of arranging so many outside games to play a proper sched- ule during the season. The competi- tion between the local schools should be encouraged before any other com- petition and the fact of the matter is that this competition is keen enough for any of the schools, without having to go outside. The baseball series this season should be as interesting as the recent basket ball series inasmuch as the clubs at this time seems well matched. Eastern, the 1928 champion, will miss “Andy” Oehman, who twirled all the series games for Coach Guyon, while Central has Ross, who came along in fine style at the close of last year. Tech has Ensor, a regular in the box in 1928. Hennessey, Mrs. Stenz Win Florida Net Title West Palm Beach, Fla., March 10 (A. P.).—Johnny Hennessey, Indianapolis, and Mrs. B. F. Stenz, New York, won the Florida mixed doubles champion- ship today by defeating Francis T. Hunter, New Rochelle, N. Y., and Miss Genevieve Fox, Southampton, N.

A broken leg ended his career. Paul Florence, Now in Minors, Had Fling With Giants. Since 1920 the only other Hilltoppe: besides Bissonette, Sukeforth and Plansky who received the call of the majors and stayed around after the first cup of coffee was Paul Florence, * husky catcher, whom the Giants car- ried for parts of two seasons. Florence, now with Indianapolis. of the American — Association, was handicapped ‘with a weak knee while performing under John McGraw. He injured the knee in foot- ball at Georgetown. : A dozen or more former Georgetown stars are now playing in the minors. Of the 1928 team, Phil McLean is try- ing for an outfield job with Rochester, of the International League: Jerry Hughes is seeking the first base post on the Pittsfield Eastern e team, while Bobby Nork has hopes of win- ning the regular third base assignment with Pottsville, of the New York-Penn- sylvania loop.

. : e / - Washington Post cup w ee ee BRITISH UNI Tarner Stars In 3-0 Win Over Clan Veteran Booter Makes 3 Goals to Defeat MacLennans. Arcadians Beat Fort Myer to Tie for League Title. By RICHARD 8S. TENNYSON. VETERAN of more than 25 years of competitive soccer turned back ‘™ the pages of time yesterday and used all of the canny experience gained in a quarter of a century of campaign- ing in soccer fielde to enable the Brit- ish United Soecer Club to win the Washington and Southeastern District Soccer Association cup tie title and The hich goes with the championship, The veteran, Jack Turner, scored the three goals amassed by the victors to none for the van- quished Clan MacLennan Eleven. The Arcadian kickers finally drew up to an undisputed tie with Rockville - for the. Capital City League champion- lads and the Arcadia crowd now have 25 pointe each and a play-off for the league title will be staged next Sunday, probably on the ship by defeating Fort Myer. 6 to 0. The land “Silver Spring Field. Jack Turner, oniy here from England but a few months, not only converted all of his club’s goals but also was demon on the attack throughout the entire 90 minutes of play against the Scotchmen. His first/goal was the only shot that was in any way easy. The other two were from difficult angles. British Pioneers of Soccer as Sport in Washingten. The British victory is a popular one ie Washington since the representa- tives of England have been pioneers in the promotion of soccer in the District for more than 20 years, but until yes- terday their only reward has been the sport derived from playing their fa- vorite game and being defeated. In 1925, when socoer was first put on an organized basis here, the British Embassy entered a team in the Wash- ington Soccer League, the first here, but failed to gain more than a few unimportant victories. So it has been until this season, when the sturdy and determined Britons culminated their most successful year by winning the most coveted title in Washington. At the start of the match yester- - Gay it appeared that the Clan MacLen- nan kickers would romp away with the victory, as they pressed the British de- . fense continuously for 30 minutes the opening helf, but Taylor, Life, Clan forwards would crash »@ goa! un-' der the United's horizon bar, but each time one of the above-named de- , W fenders halted the efforts. British Defense Turns Back All _ Attempts of Clan Booters. Even in the second period, when the -Victors scored all of their goals, the Clan was often on the offensive, but: just when a goal seemed imminent the British backs would send the sphere to midfield and on three occasions Tur- |; ner trappec and dribbled the leather | to a and counted. e Fort Myer vesterday minus the serv-, A LC A I CS Et A tt LO LLL LOL ALLIED ALA LR THE WASHINGTON POST: ee ES TT TI! a ee nee ee —_—_- —_— MOND AY.

MAR. 15 GAME IS FIRST FOR SCHOOLS St. Alban’s Coach Is Facing Task Before Battle With Tech. GAME with Tech High School on A March 15 ts the reason tor undue activity in the way of baseball practice at St. Alban's these days. Faced with the task of getting his team into shape, Coach Henderson has had his candidates out in ful) force all this week. 3 Incidentally, this geqgme with Tech will usher in the oasebal] campaign for the local schoolbcy group and % will give supnvorters and fan*® some- thing to think and talk about for the Curly season. Coach Henderson faces a hard task this year in that he has no pitching material left over from last Year's team. Only three letter-men are back _Hen- derson, however, plans to develop them intO mound artists because of ‘their tendencies toward the art. They are Galliher, outfielder: Crouch, shortstop. nd Thompson, second baseman and ormer pitcher. Development of Pitchers Coach’s Chief Concern There are four other players on the squad who could be termed fairly ex- perienced men because they played on the reserve team last year or were sub- stitutes on the varsity. They are Dilley, catcher; Weedon, second baseman, and Chesley and Hazard, outfielders. Henderson feels that if he can de- velop Galliher,. Crouch and Thompson into pitchers his team will get by the campaign in comfortable manner. The Saints, although their schedule has not yet been completed, will en- gage in a strenuous set Of games. many of them at home. On'y two are listed away from home at present; those are part of a Southern tr*p which will in- clude games with St Christopher, of Richmond, and Chriss.Church of the same city, on successive days, Follow- ing is the schedule as it standz at this Tech. t Park. of Baltimore (here); — Ri. e); 20, Bt.

Indianapolis, March 10—Leon Duray, husky racing star who holds the record for the fastest single lap ever driven on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, has entered three cars in the annua] 500- mile contest, which will be held here May 30. The three car team, which ig cap- tamed by the veteran Duray, will be the Packard Cable Specials, sponsored by an organization that manufactures ignition cables for automobiles. Duray did not nominate the two drivers who will roll to the startirng line under his supervision, but it is a certainty that he will have call on the services of the best free lance pilots in the business. Since the last race at Indianapolis, in which he was an outstanding favor- ite, Duray has been working on his three car team. It is the realization of his dream of a racing lifetime. Last May at Indianapolis, during the qualifying. trials, he herded his black and white front wheel drive around the four quarter turns and long short Straightaways of the tricky 2'4-miles 03} Indianapolis Speedway at a gait of 124.018 miles an hour, a record that is likely to stand for many a day.

Unless one of the two contenders sweeps the three-game set, it is probable that the title battle will continue until the final match of the seasoh, when Convention Hall mee*s Curb Cafe at Convention Hall on April 12. Campbelil’s Bowlere Hold Slim Lead of One Game. Campbell’s high-powered King Pin Team is in front by a single game at present. Should the defending cham- pions make a clean sweep they would be but two games in front. A triple triumph for King Pin would just about decide the championship race. A two- to-one division, which is more likely. would either leave the contenders on even terms or put King Pin in front by two games, according to which team gets t big end. Neither’ team has shown sustained championship caliber. King Pin has been unable to defeat the Convention Hall Five. Convention Hall has found the Meyer Davis Team, closely linked to the King Pin Club, its enigma. In their last meeting Convention Hall came from behind to take two from King Pin. After taking the first game on the Convention Hall drives with a rather puny total and taking a com- manding lead in the second engage- ment, the pets of Bill Wood faltered badly and took two decisive setbacks. Law of Averages Favors: Victory For Campbell’s Team. Both teams are being groomed for the approaching crucial match. Camp- bell. believes the law of averages are with his team. Since the first series, the King. Pins have been unable to get a decision over the league champs. The EL Mild- f | i ' @ were disturbed by maple tables should be reversed this time, he believes. Since their last meeting, the Con- vention Hall Five has und a shake-up. Glenn Wolstenholme has been transferred to the Arcadia Team, and Red Megaw has returned from Richmond. His work to date has not peen overimpressive. The reliable Jack Whalen, the District’s ranking star of 1927-28, is doing the anchoring. At the close of this week’s round Dut four more weeks of bowling remain on the District League schedule. King Pin has to face Meyer Davis, Cornell's Lunch, Curb Cafe and Arcadia teams.

Dowling, the dyspepsias due to gall _ Diadder disease exceeded by nearly 50 ee cent those due to all forms of ae disease. If a patient comes - “© a physician complaining of heart- - burn, acidity, belching and other symp- - “tems of acidity. the chances are one pat among ulcers and other forms _ Gf disease of the stomach or intestines, _ adhesions, constipation, worry, and _ “perhaps appendicitis. _ Dyspepsia is the most frequent symp- tom of gall bladder disease, outranking pain in this particular. Disease of the _ bladder is one of the most preva- _ sent disorders. One of each twenty-five _ ef Dr. Dowling’s patients consulted him 4-H symptoms which indicated gall = disease. Many cases of gall _ Bladder disease require operation. For _ those who are not o ted on, Dr ' -Dowling advises the following rules of; _ persona] hygiene: 1. Avoidance of large meals. Over- -,Joading the stomach commonly causes ' distress. Many of the patients with _ dyspepsia due to gall bladder disease a@fe already overweight. _ 2 Avoidance of roughage, especially - _wmneoooked fruits and vegetables, their _ seeds and skins, and tough meats. _ . 8, Avoidance of fats, especially the - fats of meats more or less burned in - .@ooking. Butter and cream are less ~ @bjectionabie. Pastries, rich foods, _ greasy gravies and mayonnaise are usu- tor trip: “Tourists taken in with bath.” ; (Copyright, 1929.) KEP WELL A. EVANS holic drinks (beer is probably most ob- jectionable). Acids often cause distress. 5. Avoidance of constipation. Agar, mineral oil and bile salts help consti- pation. A large amount of fluid daily is required. : Analysis of gastric juice tn persons who complain of acidity shows that there is less than the normal amount of acid in the secretion. Nevertheless, giving mineral acids does not help the symptom. Rather strangely, a dose of alkali is of more service. The reason for this is that the symptoms are dpe to reverse peristalsis and not to acidity. The wormlike motion of the digestive tract during the spells is working up- ward, carrying some of the intestinal content into the stomach; or, at any rate, interfering with the normal emptying of the stomach. A does of alkali is of some service in calming ~ ; .| this troubled movement. A does of an aromatic tea or sucking an aromatic tablet is better. Taking an enema or using a suppository is quite effective in giving relief, - HUTCHINSON’S TEETH. Mrs. O. S. writes: 1 am the mother of two sturdy boys, aged 2 years and 2 months. The doctor tells me I have Hutchinson's teeth. Can you give me some information about this? What causes it? What is it? Will it affect my health in the future? Will it affect my babies in any way? Tf have heard it may be a sign of some disease. What kind of diseases from this? REPLY. Hutchinson's teeth is a symptom of inherited syphilis. It was once thought to be an infallible sign. It ls not so regarded now. Some’ other conditions may cause Hutchinson's teeth. Some abnormalities of the teeth, called Hutchinson’s teeth are not such. In- herited syphilis may be passed on to the next generation, but it rarely is. Your children should escape the dis- ease. The probability is that you will never”have any other indication of it. a @ily objectioneble. _ @ Avoidance of condiments and alco- (Copyright, 1929.) | ; ACROSS : a * 1 Fish 48 Ancient race of ny # pwey Asia - * 8 Mark left by a 52 Across &s sore 53 Half-ems cs W 5 Valley _ 4&8 Measure of di- 56 Fairy aily Cross-Word Ruadie erly breezes.

The Brookland Citizens Association, of which M. M. McLean is president and R. N. Ashmun secretary, will hear Dr. e C. Havenner, president of the federation. According to Secretary Ashmun, the association will nominate A. F. E. Scheer, attorney and president of the Dahlgren Terrace Citizens Association, for the citizens’ advisory committee.

The Dis- trict reservoir was abandoned about a year ago. Other associations which will hold meetings tonight are those of Takoma Park, Manor Park, Stanton Park, North- east Washington, Congress Heights and Piney Branch.

School authorities out that abandonment of tie building is at least two years that they will have plenty has risked all. When it is considered that the Barrie text has been padded to run 60 minutes instead of the original half hour, the achieve- ment seems all the more noteworthy. It tool: courage, not to mention skill, to effect an enlargement of Sir James's lines. Although a portion of the extra half hour is taken up with the addition of @ prologue and a new development in the ending, the script itself has been filled in to a degree that ought by all rights to make the action drag, but somehow doesn’t. Barrie and DeMille take turns with the speeches. Often it is obvious whose turn it is, but the re- sult is far less jarring than might have been expected. And the altered ending, by way of compensating for the pro- logue, which is rather strained, is a vivid plece of dramaturgy. Ruth Chatterton is the pathetic, yet courageous, Lady Lillian, for whom a lifetime of tragedy is crowded into one brief space, when she leaves her hus- band of coarse fiber and brutal in- stincts to seek happiness with the man she loves, only to find herself back again in half an hour, crushed by the lover’s -sudden death ani terrified by the arrival as a dinner guest in her home of the one man who shares her secret. She is effective and appealing in her great stress, and H. B. Warner, es her lower-bred husband, overcomes the handicap of an aristocratic nos with an expert characterization. Rob- ert Edeson, little Nancy Price and John Loder are also excellent. The supplen.entaries include a Max Davidson comedy, a Movietone Revue. an overture, Jan Garber’s Band, an Aesop's fable, and the Newsree!. as screened, President Is Praised At Greek Church Rites Praise of the life and character of President Hoover was sounded both in Greek and English yesterday at the SS. Constantine and Helen Greek Orthodox Church, Sixth and C streets southwest. The address in Greek was delivered by the Rev. Thomas Daniels, pastor of the church, and that in English by Capt. Soterios Nicholson. Both speakers told of the President's reputation for thoroughness. Capt. Nicholson stressed that after his gradu- ation from college Hoover did not wait for work to find him, but went out and found work. Ring Worth $1,000 Stolen Week-End Haul ‘By Thief in aad ie)?

Snare ner ros. a ’ starring Monte Blue, by Grent Withers and Edna M ected by Howard retherton. Sunday afternoon, While much of the action of the story has to do with the business of railroading, both Monte Blue and Grant Withers being cast as trainmen, I should hesitate to catalogue it as a drama of the rails. It begins as such, but soon goes through an open switch and hecomes thereafter a play of crooks and an eleventh-hour reprieve from the gallows. The material, as you may have suspected, is nut evén so new as some of the 1926 wisecracks that have been woven into the conversations that ar: rendered audible by Vitaphone. In “Conquest,” Mr. Blue’s reading of lines left me as cold as the Ant- arctic wastes in which much of the picture was laid, but here I find him wholly in character. His utter lack of polish in pronunciation anc diction ts easily reconciled with the rough-and- ready life of a young engineer piloting a heavy and important train. Still it Reviewed seems to me that Grant Withers./ Monte’s fireman, who goes haywire, is accused of a murder and all but pays the supreme penalty for the crime he didn’t commit—although too drunk to be sure of it—does the best work of = = — er Mr. Withers is a du- plica ytell in appearan. and possesses a keen sense of dramatic values. His drunken scenes are par- ticularly well done. Edna Murphy is the blonde waitress who gives the susceptible young en- gineman his first nudge along the prim- rose path and the one who plays the most important part later in saving him from the noose, She, too, speaks in cheracter with a voice that records distinctly. : There is a deal of humor as the de- velopments and thrills no end in the last reel or two, but these vir- tues are dwarfed by the profoundly good judgment of Mr. Bretherton, the director, in fortifying his melodrama with a final “tag” line that plucks it deftly from the ruck of mediocrity and ends it with a laugh. Quite worth the price of admission is the Clark and McCullough Movie- tone comedy playlet, “The Diplomats,” in which these fabulous clowns save the throne of a mythical.kingdom by most extraordinary methods. If you can not laugh at this one, you can not laugh. 7 In addition to presiding. over the “Syncopation Revels” stage revue, Bert mioroore + master of ceremonies, this we sings a song about da be Caer nights that met wa yo approval yesterday. He also intro- duced the Foxettes, the twelve rapidly perfected line girl; Frank and Fore- man, tap dancers; Muriel La France, coloratura soprano already firmly en- trenched in local regard: Yvonne Davis, acrobatic dancer; Charles Brugge, ec- centric acrobatic musician, and Mabel Alperson, in faithful im of Gertrude Lawrence and Fannie Brice. The Movietone News rounds out the screen diversion and the orchestra scores decisively with “Naila,” by De- libes, played in straight and syncopated arrangements that provide spotlighted bits for the drummers, who, in view of ‘the hit they made, would probably prefer to be known as percussionist and tympanist, respectively. N. B. B. 1 METROPOLITAN | “WEARY RIVER.” First National pie- ture, with sound, talking sequences and songs, starring Richard Barthelmess, with Betty Compson leading the cast. Directed by Frank Lloyd. Reviewed Sunday a/ter- noon (second week) by C. Ransom. The generously repeated theme song of “Weary River,” holding over at the Metropolitan, is a pleasing little senti- mental piece, and the only possible ob- jection to it is that theme songs and sentiments do not precisely hang well with the best that might be hoped from Richard Barthelmess. Just be- cause he has one of the truest acting talents of the screen his career is wa- vering. The movies can not or will not produce enough really good stories to maintain his pace. “Weary River” is a far better story than the average output, They can’t all strike the pitch of “T’olable David,” and the only point made here is that it would be great for Barthelmess if they could. Even if he could sing, as he appears to in this picture, it would be too bad to let him. What he ought to keep on doing is to act. Barthelmess plays the part of a wilful young gangster who is terribly upset when they send him to prison, and only gradually comes to accept the dis- cipline of the place and the kindly in- terest of the warden. He becomes leader of the prison orchestra and com- poses’ the little song that touches his sweetheart, listening by radio. Re- leased, with a reputation gained by re- dio, he turns to vaudeville. The con- vict stigma clings to and embitters him, so he returns to the old gang and the racket. Sweetheart doesn’t like that and rescues him with the aid of the warden. Betty Compson, as the sweetie, shines through the picture, rather in- credibly fine and sympathetic for what she is supposed to he. The picture is well directed and con- tains many interesting and well-acted passages. On the whole it is much too sentimental to carry conviction as a study in racketeering. The Pathe sound news film is devot- ed almost wholly to excellent pictures of the inauguration ceremonies and parade. The one added Vitaphone num- ber introduces Jack Goldie, blackface comedian and songster. THE STRAND 1] Fred (Falls) Binder, the man who faws down and goes boom, heads the attraction at the Strand this week, “Speed Girls of 1929.” It would naturally be supposed, of course, that “Speed Girls of 1929” would have to be just that; this being the Jazz Age, and all that the word im- plies. Well, in that light, the show at the Strand.is not a disappointment. Binder, a Jewish comedian, knows how to put over his stuff—and he has a fair running mate, Nellie Nice, the leading woman, who is no novice, in the entertainment field. Others helping along the merriment are Jim Pearl, a singing and dancing Irish comedian; Millie Kennedy, an acrobatic dancer; Joan Tanya, helping out in many scenes and situations, and Guy Post, a vaudevillian. The straight man is Pat McCarthy.

Later he was taken to the Sixth Precinct and re- leased on collateral.’ - -- d -, EXPERTS HELD: D FAVOR AIRPORT AT GRAVELLY POINT Four Departments Expected to Start This Week to Prepare Reports.
