Little Rock, Ark., April 11 (A.P.).— Alternately mounting and falling as additional deaths were reported and other persons previously reported dead were found alive, the toll from yester- day’s freakish “twin tornadoes” in northeast Arkansas late tonight was 50, with the injured list exceeding 200. Wrecked farm houses in isolated parts of mountainous north Arkansas were still unexplored by rescue workers to- night, 24 hours after a pair of tornadoes dipped and swung across the region. With rescue work showing great prog- ress in the most thickly settled com- munities struck by the storm, the known dead tonight numbered 48. Neo accurate check of the number of in- jured could be made because of lack of systematic efforts in registering them and the demoralized condition of com- munication lines. Relief work was going forward on a barge scale in the Swifton section. the center of the storm area, where 25 bodies already have been recovered ana from 30. to 50: injured persons taken | from under lttered debris to haspitais and private homes for treatment. .

Gov. Harvey Parnell sent scores of tents. and other supplies to the home- less and injured. Reports of additional injured con- tinued to come in tonight as communi- cation was restored in the storm area, while the death -list climbed slowly during the day after the early morning efforts of rescue workers. The bodies of two children who had been missing—Jack Defries, 2, and his sister, Ruth, 4—were found in a drain- age ditch in the Swifton community Eleven-year-old Joe Bullard’s body war recovered from a creek.

Mrs. Gann Is Honored At Envoy's Curtis’ Sister Given Seat on Ambassador Davilla’s Right at Function. (United Press.) Foreign diplomats set another prece- dent at the dinner here last night, when Mrs. Edward E. Gann, sister and hostess: of Vice President Curtis, real- ized the fruits of her victory in Wash- ingtoh’s social war and sat above the wives of diplomats. The dinner, given by Don Carlos G. Davila, Chilean AmbDassador, was abso- lutely bone dry. The shattering of a precedent by serving only water attracted as much attention as the setting of a precedent in the case of Mrs. Gann, who occupied the seat of honor through a decision of the diplomatic corps. Nearly 200 of Washington’s official and diplomatic elite were gathered about the table in the beautiful Pan-American Building here on this rather noteworthy occasion in social and diplomatic history. Mem- bers of President Hoover’s cabinet were among the guests. The dinner was on the occasion of the visit here of Chilean Minister of Finance Pablo Ramirez and was the first diplomatic social function of mag- nitude since the enactment of the Jones “five and ten” law. No cocktails with seductive lure graced the snowy board. There was no harmony of popping champagne corks. The Ambassador’s dinner was not dry by accident. His decision to omit Dry Dinner AMBASSADOR DAVILA. the customary cocktails, wines, cham- pagne and liquors was reached only after days of careful deliberation of the problem, during which both wet and dry arguments were given consid- eration. Probably almost as much time was given to this question during the early deys of preparation for the dinner as the Ambassador was forced to give dur- ing the last week of the burning social question of where to seat Mrs. Gann. That question mgs finally settled for Ambassador Davila by the Diplomatic Corps in solemn meeting at the British Embassy. Wednesday, when it was de- CONTINUED ON PAGE 3, COLUMN 4.

He would arrive in Washington about 10 o'clock urider normal fiying conditions. When Lindbergh reaches here he will be asked to appear before the Congres- sional Airport Commission and to give his views about a national airport for Washington. Senator Hiram Bingham of Connecticut, chairman of the com- mission. returned to Washington from his home last night. Bound to New York from Browns- ville, Tex. to meet the ship bringing home the body of Ambassador Myron T. Herrick, Lindbergh left Meridian. Miss, at 9:20 o’clock yesterday morn- ing, according to the Associated Press. He reached Atlanta, Ga., about noon, refueled, and hopped off again at 1 o’clock. He was next definitely heard from when he was forced to land at Greensboro, a station en the Atlanta- New York mail route, whigh he evi- dently was following north. Fog con- ditions here and south of here were bad and considerably delayed Lind- bergh’s progress. If the flying colonel testifies before the congressional commission, he will. find it well equipped to give the most effective consideration to his sugges- tions. Yesterday a party headed by Larry Williams, chairman of the aviation com- mittee of the Board of Trade. and Rob- ert J. Cottrell, executive secretary of the board, visited two airport sites in an effort to be prepared to assist the commission in its deliberations The party was not impressed by either of the sites. : The first field visited was the so- called Chillum, Md. site, about 4 miles northeast of Brookland It lies in the valley of the Anacostia River and con- sists of farms and woodland.

Federal troops were reported advanc- ing rapidly up the west coast from the State of Sinaloa and the army of Gen Juan Andreu Almazan, which is niop- ping up the State of Chihuahua, con- stituted a serious threat from the east as the remnants of Gen. Escobar’s army retreated into Sonora through Pulpito pass in the mountains. A typewritten notice, unsigned, caused excitement by threatening a gas attack on Naco. No rebel planes have ventured over the city, however, since the arrival of a United States Army air squadron in Arizona and the threat was not considered serious. Nogales, Ariz., April 11 (United Press). Reports reaching rebel headquarters here tonight said that federal forces advancing on the west coast of Mexico made a severe air attack on San Blas, Sinaloa, today. According to the reports, the bomb- ing was so heavy that employes of the Southern Pacific de Mexico Railroad were forced to abandon their posts and fiee. Guerilla Warfare Feared.

It was un- derstood he had planned to go to Casas Grandes and then continue into Sonora to join Gen. Jose Gonzalo Escobar, revo- lutionary chief, in a campaign in that state. Mexican federal officials in Jua- rez admitted today they did not know where Gen. Caraveo is at the present time. The main body of the federal army, under Gen. Andreu Almazan, is to ar- rive here tomorrow or Saturday from Chihuahua. Operations against rebels in Sonora are expected to be started from Juarez after Almazan’s arrival. New Bomb Plot Charged.

PRISONER SUSPECTED IN SECOND FIRE CRIME Discovery of Blazing Body Occurred Almost One Year After First Tragedy, Elizabeth, N.J., April 11 (N.Y.W.NS8.). H. Colin Campbell, a white-haired, dis- tinguished looking civil engineer of 60, with a wife and family, was ar- rested tonight as he walked into his apartment in Elizabeth, N. J., and within an hour had confessed in the Union County Courthouse that he was the torch murderer who, on February 23, had first put a bullet into the brain of Mrs. Benjamin 8. Mowry and then soaked her clothing in kerosene and set fire to the body. “I’m sorry for my wife and children,” he said calmly. Campbell, who bigamously married Mrs. Mawry at Elkton, Md., last August 28, and the next day got her to cash a $1,000 check for him, had used the name of “Richard M. Campbell” and the murdered woman spoke of him as “the doctor.” Has Four Children., Tic has a married daughter and three younger children, the smallest of them a baby only a year and a half old.

The eivil engineer identified a picture of Mrs. Mowry as the woman he had killed and said that he shot her with a pistol found on him when arrested He is 60 years old, smooth shaven and wears glasses. He told the detec- tives how he had maintained offices in New York while preparing for the crime. At the present time, he said, he was employed as an advertising man for a coal company, with offices in New York. He said he had studied | Medicine prior to going. to Mexico as a civil engineer. He said he had lived in Baltimore recently. Evaded Arrest Three Weeks. For nearly three weeks Campbell had lived quietly with his wife and family not ten blocks from where his victim lay, charred beyond recognition, it was believed, in Maryin’s morgue. Identification was only made today by two women from Greenville, Pa.. who knew Mrs. Mowry there when she went away to marry “Dr. Campbell.” Within half an hour detectives of Union County were’ bringing to light the strange story of Mrs. Benjamin Mowry, the widow, who, after ten quiet years of working as a practical nurse in Greenville, had drawn out her life savings and married “Dr.” Richard M. Campbell last August 28. Margaret Brown, whose living body was found blazing almost a year to the day prior to the murder of Mrs. Mow- ry, near Bernardville, less than 30 miles from the scene of the second crime, had also been a nurse, and she. too, Grew out her life savings of nearly $7,000 before she eloped to marry “the doctor.” Woman Sought Husband. Mrs. Mowry. or Mrs. Campbell, had come to New York February 1 and en- deavored to join her husband. who seemed to be avoiding her, it was learned today. It was learned she had left the Laura Spelman Hall. a Y. W. C. A. in Abingdon Square, February 10. ostensibly for Dover, Del.. and later a letter was returned to the hall which she had despairingly addressed to Campbell and which demanded to know what Campbell was going to do about her situation, which had become desperate. The latter said if Campbell did not come back at once she would kill herself. But Mrs. Campbell did not kill her- self, Instead, her murderer put a 32 caliber bullet straight into the top of her skull, perhaps as she got out of his car to stoop over and look at a tire, or on some such pretext. Then he lifted the body into the weeds of Willsie’s Half Acre, soaking her clothing with kerosene, set the torch on fire and drove away in the early morning darkness.

NEW RULE EFFECTIVE ON RETURNING TRIP Bar Is Not to Be Carried; Restriction Planned on Tipsy Ones. TWELVE-MILE LIMIT — WILL BE RECOGNIZED Amount of Intoxicants on Board Is Unknown to Port Authorities. New York, April 11 (A.P.).—The liner Leviathan, queen of the American mer- chant marine, was plowing the waves today still a dry boat under the orders | of its new owners, but soon to lose its | aridity by authority of those same or- ders. : The Leviathan sailed yesterday on its first voyage under private ownership having been taken over by an organi- zation headed by Paul W. Chapman along with the rest of the Skipping Board fleet. The. Shipping Board boats were dry, but shortly after the Leviathan sailed the report got about that the new United States Lines were going to fol- low the example of most other Ameri- can shipping concerns and sell Uquor on the far side of the 12-mile line. Report is Confirmed. This report was confirmed by Joseph E. Sheedy, executive vice president of the line, who said he had decided the new liquor policy of the Leviathan and her smaller sisters on his own responsi- bility. Some hours later he amended hia statement to. say that his orders to ‘directed them ‘not — journey to sell liquer. While his atate · ment covered specifically only the cur- rent round trip, it was clearly indi- cated that under the new orders, on subsequent trips liquor would be sold both ways outside the 12-mile limit.. There will be no bars on the United States Lines’ boats, he said, because strong drink: sometimes Jeads to strong language and he wished to protect women passengers, who, he seemed to think. would frequent the bar just as much as the men. But liquor will be served in state- rooms and at table. The only limit the. passengers’. ability to pay and to drink in seemly fashion.

Whittle, surveyor of the port, said that so far as he knew, no figures .were available as to the actual amount of liquor or wine on board the Leviathan. Henry C. Stuart, assistant collector of the port, said it is not the practice to check the liquor supply of -liners except “every now and then,” since there are often 450 vessels in this port at one time, and the collector’s staff is too small. It is the practice to depend on the ethical conduct of the ship sur- eons who have the liquor in charge.| Mr Stewart said. Medicinal supplies bought in foreign ports, are kept under seal while the vessels are in American waters, he said. Senator Wesley L.

Then came the dramatic message at 11:31 saying that the Southern Cross had been found and that food was dropped to the crew. Two minutes later the message was repeated that theré might be no doubt of the good news. At 11:36 a.m. the Canberra radiced to the Southern Cross: “If you can hear us walk out into open ground.” Five minutes later the Canberra told the Darwin Station: “They must be hearing, but haven’t seen them.” It was 36 minutes past noon when the Canberra, still flying around the Southern Cross, radioed: “The Southern Cross is approximately 30 miles from the Port George Mission.

Four of them were in a critical condition tonight. The fire began in the bilges of the ship and spread quickly to the oil room, where it exploded the liner’s large con- tainers of fuel. There it trapped six of the crew, who were working in an ad- joining storeroom. Nicholas Burke, fireman, descended into the blazing hold and carried out three of the men. On his last trip, burned badly about the face and body, he collapsed and fell against a stan- chion, suffering a skull fracture. He may die, hospital attendants said. . Burns were fatal to Robert Portland, Jersey City, a boilermaker’s helper. The President Roosevelt, lately oper- ated by the ‘United States Shipping Board, was undergoing repairs and be- ing improved for its new owners.

BALANCE Attorney General to Decide Between Occoquan and District Cell. WORKHOUSE IS DREADED Whether Harry F. Sinclair, million- @ire oil man, will serve a 90-day sen- tence for contempt of court by making bricks or indulging in other forms of hard labor at the District Workhouse at Occoquan, Va., or whether he will serve his sentence in a cell in the Dis- trict Jail, is expected to be ruled upon by Attorney General Mitchell within the next few days. Capt. M. M. Barnard, superintendent of District penal institutions, last night announced he would call upon the At- torney General probably today to de- cide whether a man sentenced to jail for contempt of court can be trans- ferred legally to Occoquan, where all prisoners are taken who have more than ten days to serve. Capt. Barnard made the announce- ment following @ conference with Maj. William L.'Peak, superintendent of the District Jail If Sinclair serves his sentence in the District Jail, he will not be subjected to hard labor. Providing he is not given a job in the, office or in the culia- ary department, he will spend most of his time in the cell block. If Sinclair goes to Occoquan, how- } ever, he will be forced to serve his ; sentence at hard labor, “just like any other prisoner,” Capt. Barnard said. Occoquan is a place dreaded in the summer months. It is but a few feet above the river level and there is not @ tree on the reservation. Prisoners transferred to this institution from the jail are assigned either to the brick factory, the wharves, in the fields for plowing and planting crops, or to a job in the machine factory, which turns out all District automobile tags. Capt. Barnard said he will seek the ruling not because of the probability of Sinclair serving his sentence but to have decided once and for all whether & man sentenced in a contempt of court case can be put to hard labor at Occoquan.

He also expressed the opinion the Owners were transgressing the spirit of the eighteenth amendment. He said that while to the best of his knowledge the line was within the law in the sale of liquor, he warned that in event an error was discovered in the decision pertaining to such sales the Antisaloon League would reopen the question in order to test the validity and strength of the ruling.

Although no definite action has been taken on the project, officials of the line, which recently purchased the Leviathan and several other Shipping Board liners, for several days have been considering the idea to acqyire the carriers and use them as express pas- senger liners. Under the terms of the sale of the passenger liners to P. W. Chapman & Co., two large, fast liners must be added within three years to operate with the Leviathan.

HUGE SCANDAL IS HINTED Detroit, April 11 (A.P.)-—Accused of having utilized his; position as harbor- master and head of the police staff on Belle Isle to aid rum runners in trana- portation of liquor from Canada to the United States, Capt. Joseph A. Burk- heiser was suspended today. Police Commissioner William P. Rutledge, de- claring “this will prove to be the worst scandal in the history of the depart ment,” added that “the liquor affair is only a small part of what has been go ing on,” on Belle Isle and the river. He would not amplify the statement, but gave out the specific charges against Burkheiser, all of which refer to incidents of two to four years ago, As head of the olice staff on Belle Isle, Burkheiser occupied free living It is alleged that he stored for his own use on the island and later transported to Detroit in de partment automobiles part of a seized liquor cargo. Another of the charges relates that late in 1927 Burkheliser as- signed two patrolmen of the harbor master’s divis'un to convoy a load of liquor from the Canadian to the Amer- ican shore, and that the officers were ordered to stand by the boatload of liquor to prevent its seizure by State or Federal officers. Six other charges were substantially the same and dated back to 19265. . , ie ’ Coincident with announcement of Burkheiser’s suspension, the Detroit News today published a description and a picture of the landing of liquor by rum runners at a dock in the down- town district only. four blocks from headquarters of the United States Cus- toms Border Patrol. The picture was taken by a caméraman hidden in the tower of a building nearby. It showed men unloading a speedboat and placing the cargo in waiting automobiles. — The rum running speedboats, the News said, are much speedier than the border patrol craft, being capable. of making a trip from the Canadian shore to the dock at the foot of :Riopelle street and unloading a cargo in 2 min- utes and 40 seconds. — * The rummers, the paper dsse even have gone to the extent of enj-. ploying their own “traffic officer” to: insure a clear right of way for their liquor laden automobiles. _In sévera! instances, the rummers’ traffic director is said to have threatened to “blow. up” motorists who protested at. being. stopped at Riopelle and Atwater streets until the lqur cartying automobiles. had left the dock, eae pee The Riopelle street “importing” dock. is about 2 miles down the river from.

Ottawa, April 11 (A.P.).—Although Canada has offered to permit the United States to station men on the Canadian side for the purpose of trans- mitting information with respect to the dispatch of liquor cargoes destined .to the United Statés, the domiriion gov- ernment has not provided that these Officers shall be placed on liquor ex- t docks which are rrivately owned Oo definite arrangement has beén con- cluded. between the two governments and it ls understood that the Canadian offer has not yet been formally’ ac- cepted by the United States. t the recent conference between Ca- nadian and United States. representa- tives here, when the United States del-. egation urged the refusal of clearance: papers to liquor cargoes going’ south, it was stated the system of transmit- ting information with respect to-these liquor shipments was not working out well. The Canadian offer was designed to meet the complaint. No definite con- clusion as to the request for refusal: of clearances has yet been reached, it is understood. ‘ (Associated Press.) Treasury Department officials said yesterday that the offer by the Cana- dian government to permit this Gov- ernment to station customs inspectors on Canadian public docks would be declined, as had been an identical offer during the antismuggling con- ference in Canada last’ winter. : The offer was declined at that con- ference, officials said, because this Government believed it could derive no benefit from stationing inspectors on the Canadian docks.

Everyone jumped up trom his seat, clapped and cheered and shouted, and one man seiged the blonde night club hostess and kissed her. She, in turn. ran to the jury box cnd shook hands with the twelve jurors who had decided her innocence after deliberation of one hour and four minutes. Had she been convicted Miss Guinan would have been liable to one year im- prisonment and a fine of $1,000. Just before her trial opened three days ago she and ten others from the Salon Royale were given a chance to change their pleas and all but she pleaded gull- ty and received deferred sentences. Promised Bitter Fight. “They are Greeks and don’t know what guilty means,” the hostess said of her codefendants at that time. “I will fight this through if it is the last thing I ever do.” The principal witnesses for tha Gov- esnment were three Washington pro- hibition agents who told of visiting the Salon Royale and buying liquor there. She herself was the only important wit- ness for the defense, having testified that she had never had a drink in her life and never knew that liquor was / sold at the nigit club. After thanking the jury Miss Guinan turned to special United States Attor- ney General Morrison, who prosecuted the case. “I want to congratulate you,” she said. “You were a perfect gentleman.” “Texas,” Morrison replied, “you were the toughest customer I ever had.” Federal Judge Edwin 8. Thomas, of Connecticut, threatened to expel spec- tators from the courtroom today as the repartee of Miss Guinan drew con- tinued laughter from the crowded benches. Figh for Admission. Miss Guinan, heavily jeweled as dur- ‘ling the first two days of her trial, re- sumed the witness chair for continued cross-examination while men and women fought with court attendants to gain entrance to the room. Special Attorney General Norman Morrison asked the defendant witness if her contract with Salon Royle guar- anteeing her a minimum of $1,000 a jweéek Kad not been drawn to her ad- vantage and she replied it had riot. “Did the lawyer draw this up out of the blue sky?” Morrison asked. “No, He drew it up in his office,” Miss Guinan replied, and the crowd, con- sidering this a humorous “comeback,” roared with mirth. “This is'a trial and not a show,” Judge Thomas admonished the specta- tors. “If anyone laughts any more here I will have the attendants clear the galleries.” Assailed Dry Agent. In his summation Miss Guinan’s law- yer sought to discredit the testimony of James White, prohibition agent and the pfincipal Government witness. He asserted ite admittedly Hed in tell- ing Miss Guinan when he visited the Salon Royale to get evidence that he was a’ Denver business man and asked “wouldn’s he Me about other things, too?” “White testified,” said the lawyer, “that he tried to make criminals out of people. Why couldn’t he be con- structive? Why didn’t he tell Texas Guinan that he thought she was vio- lating the law and urge her not to.” The defense lawyer said the evidence had proven Miss Guinan to be merely an. employe at the night club and so not responsible for any infractions of the law that might have been done there without her knowledge.

Tabor Luck Enables Widow To Redeem Matchless Mine Mortgage on Property That Made Senator Wealthy to Be Paid by Former Society Beauty; Shaft Is Last of Riches Her Husband Left. Denver, April 11 (A.P.).—‘Tabor luck” that became 4 by-word in the West with the rise to fame and fortune of the late Senator H. A. W. Tabor, has come to aid his penniless widow, en- abling her again to save her famous Matchless mine, the last remnant of Tabor fortune. eg, Se the mine site at Leadville, once famous gold camp, Mrs. Tabor, the former beautiful “Baby Doe,” now withered with age and poverty-stricken, came to Denver today with a new sparkle in her eyes to announce she will be abie to redeem the mortgage op the mine, due next Wednesday. Charles A. lrwin, Mrs. Tabor’s attor- ney, said the present mortgage held by the Shorego Mining Co., would be paid. It will be the fifth time in twenty years that Mrs. Tabor has re- covered the mine from its creditors at the eleventh hour. Through the long period of her poverty she has clung tenaciously to the property which was the fountain from which millions of dollars poured into the pockets of Sen- ator Tabor to make him perhaps the most romantic figure of the Western boom days. Hfetime Mrs. Tabor was the society butterfly who married | Tabor at the height of his career. The President of the United States was the guest of honor at the wedding. In the years that followed, the Tabor fortune dwindled. When he died, the senator who once startled Washington by recelving high Government officials while dressed in a jeweled and gold crusted nightgown, left the Matchless mine, a played-out, decrepit property, as the only legacy to his widow. Mrs. Tabor determined there was more wealth to be had from the Match- less. In 1908 sha went to Leadvile and personally superintended the work of a few miners who sought to work the old mine. Her efforts failed and several times since then she has been on the verge of losing her mine. Six months ago she was given a voluntary extension of the claim against the mine held by the Shorego company. For a time Mrs. Tabor lived in a shack at the mine. Recently she has lived in a shabby downtown rooming house here, Details of the latest redemption of the Matchiess were unavailable today. Lately, however, there have been ré@eq ports from Leadville of renewed activity, including the arrival of modern mining mine. machinery, at the old — — > tr ee te .> 23 at - a a a.

Moore was a newspaper man at Santa Barbara when Mrs. McPherson disap- peared three years ago. At the time be partly identified through newspaper articles a woman seen in an automobile there with Ormiston as Mrs. McPherson. The newspaper man testified today he had seen the evangelist before 1926 and that when he saw the woman with Ormiston he had certain features in mind through which he might ascer- tain whether she was Mrs. McPherson “Can you state now she (Mrs. McPher- son) was the woman in the car?” Moore | was asked. “Yes, I think she was,” the witness answered. e The newspaper man was brought into the case in an effort to prove the prose- cution’s allegation that when Judge Hardy visited him in Santa Barbara, after his partial identification of the evangelist, the jurist frightened Moore into retracting his statements by tell- ing him of the dangers of es a wrong identification. Moore said that Judge Hardy told him Ormiston was considered as 4 “man about town and something of « sport,” and that Mrs. McPherson would not associate with Ormiston publicly. Moore was warned by the judge, he said, that if he bore false witness, evea though it be unintentional, that he might be sued by the party againat whom he testified at any time during his life and that in all probability full judgment would be obtained against him.

REVEAL BOMB-THROWING Chicago, April 11 (N.Y.W.N.S&.).— Racketeers in the candy-making indus- try took it on the chin today. A sealed verdict, opened in Federal court by Judge Lindley’s clerk, found sixteen members of an unlawful organizasion, the Chicago Association of Candy Job- bers, guilty of conspiracy to violate the antitrust laws by fixing prices and wrecking competition. The combine was formed to control the candy business in the city. Those who did not join and pay dues were visited by “scare eggs, big eggs and bad eggs,” or small and large bombs and odor bombs. clal, who turned Government witness, testified that he paid $25 to $50 to bombers and wreckers to break win- dows in cigar stores that sold candy and were not members of the associa- tion. Thirty-four men were placed on trial. Eighteen were acquitted. Among those convicted were Albert A. Hoffman, president of the assocta- tion; Henry Meisterling, first vice presi- dent; Roy S. Ralston, second vice pres- ident, and John D. Hand, secre - treasurer. They, with the others, face a Maximum sentence of one year in jail and a fine of $5,000 each. It was a signal victory for the youth- ful, bobbed-haired Miss Mary G. Con- nor, Assistant United States Attorney General, sent to Chicago from Wash- ington to war on racketeers. “It was an intelligent jury,” she said “They showed great discretion in pick- ing out for punishment those whom the Government .considered the ring- leaders In the conspiracy to fix prices and stifle competition. “This conviction will give Chicago racketeers something to think about. They used to think the antitrust law was @ joke and all they had to do was pay a small fine while their profits mounted to the thousands. “This is good, but it’s only a starter. I’m going to try my hardest to help. Chicago out of its racketeer dilemma. I'd like to get them al, but I don't want to indict half your population.” 8 Admit Flogging; Pay $500 to Victim Indicted Men Who Whipped Ohio Painter Are Not to Be Prosecuted. St. Clairsville, Ohio, April 11 (A.P.).— Eight men were indicted by the Bel- mont County grand jury here today for riotous conspiracy and assault and bat- tery in connection with the attack on H. L. Van Horne, local painter, last week. Immediately after the indictments were returned, Prosecutor George McKelvey announced that the eight men, names of whom were not revealed. had admitted the flogging and had paid $500 to Van Horne, an amount for which the county is held responsible under the mob law. Ee said that inasmuch as the money had been paid and the men admitted the attack that the charges would te dropped but that the indictments would be held over their heads in case of any future violence. Van Horne said he was satisfied with the arrangements. Be was kignaped about midnight early last week and taken to a schoolyard near the town. where he was beaten into unconscious- ness. Mother. Girl Slain; Police Seeking Son Wife and Daughter of Con- sul’s Adviser Are Killed in New York. New York, April 11 (A.P.).—The wife of the legal adviser to the Colombian Consul in New York was shot to death in her Upper West Side apartment to- day and her 19-year-old daughter was 50 severely wounded at the same time that she died in Knickerbocker Hos- pital. Police sent out a general alarm for the woman's son, who was said to have done the shooting. The woman was Mrs. Raquel Espriella, 52 years old, whose husband, Henry Espriella, has been legal adviser to the Colombian Consul here for eight years. The daughter, Theresa. died from three bullet wounds which she told police were inflicted by her brother, 26 years old, who, she said, fired two shots at her mother. She told police her brother had been acting “queerly” for some time and had not lived at home since 1927. The father end another daughter were not at home at the time of the shooting. ° CEMETERIES — GLENWOOD CEMETERY Choice tots and «iten for anie.

CLAIMS RIGHT TO FORCE (United Press.) Two defenses for sinking by Coast Guard vessels of the rum runner I’m Alone are set up in a lengthy note pre- pared by State Department officialsin answer to the protest of the Canadian government, it was learned last night. The draft of the note waits only ap- proval of Secretary of State Stimson. It is understood Stimson has examined the draft, but whether he made any changes is not known. The note is ex- pected to go forward soon. The note supports the Coast Guard in sinking of the I'm Alone in the Gulf of Mexico with an exhaustive review of previous rum treaty ship seizures. It contends in the first place, it is understood, that three Canadian ships seized in recent years—the Vinces, Gold Harbor and Pescawha—were hailed within the treaty limit, fled and were captured on the high seas. These seiz- ures were approved by United States courts. The note argues that the principle involved in these seizures is the same as that in the case of the I'm Alone, and that Canada did not protest these incidents. The State Department, it is uhderstood, interprets the failure to protest as a tacit admission that seizure on the high seas under such circum- stances is a proper action. The second defense involves inter- pretation of the rum treaty between the United States and Canada. The treaty reaffirms existence of the 3-mile international limit, but it expressly grants to the United States the right to stop, search and, if the search war- hour’s steaming distance of the Ameri- can shore. The note contends the treaty implied the right to employ necessary force in compelling liquor ves- sels to submit to being stopped, searched and seized by granting the right to stop, search and seize. Miss Talley to Return To Farm; Quits Opera - New York, April 11 (U.P.).—Marion Talley, who came here as a 19-year-old girl three years ago to become the Metropolitan Opera Company’s younz- est star, will retire from the operatie and concert stage next month. She wants to go back West with her fam- liy. buy a farm and “be just like all the other farmers.” Announcement of the young singer’s plan to retire was made today by her manager. George Engles, after a per- formance of “Mignon,” in which she sang. He said she had declined a con- tract offered her by the Metropolitan for next season. Village Is Destroyed Lacking Fire-Fighters Manistique, Mich., April 11 (A.P.).— Without fire-fighting equipment and with outside communication shut off, residents of Gould City were forced to stand by and watch a fire destroy most of their village today. Eleven buildings were destroyed, in- cluding the telephone exchange and the lines to Manistique. the closest town with a fire department. Damage was estimated at $75,000. Bribery Is Charged To Gov. H. P. Long Louisiana«House Adds For- mal Accusation to Case Against Executive. Baton Rouge, La., April 11 (A.P.).— The Louisiana House of Representatives today formally impeached Gov. Huey P. Long for alleged attempts to bribe leg- islators, and then launched into testi- mony on others of the nineteen counts against the youthful executive. The vote was 56 to 40. Specifically, the charge is that the governor offered Representative Adolph Gueymard, of Iberville Parish, and Felix Delaune, of St. Charles, remunerative employment in return for their support of adminis- trative legislative measures. The Senate, sitting as a high court of impeachment, recopvend at noon and heard its committee report on rules of procedure. Under the rules as pre- sented no charges will be tried until the House has filed all charges, with the provision that if the lower body has not completed its work by April 22 the Senate would fix a date of hear- ing on any articles adopted. Mate Who Beat Wife Must Kiss Her Daily New York, April 11 (A.P.).—John Mc- Cabe, of Brooklyn, who admitted that he beat his wife, was directed by Magistrate Eilperin today to kiss her every morning for six months or serve that period in the workhouse. And there must not be any beatings, the magistrate said, or McCabe will have to go to the workhouse anyway with no time off for the kisses. Mc- Cabe executed the first day’s sentence in court and the couple returned to their home. — — — — —* SHOOTS SELF — Oe ee —8 4, iS Associated Press Photo. CAPT. JOHN PITT DENING, Futile Love Is Seen As Suicide Motive Coroner Finds Capt. Dening, Polo Player, Shot Self While Insane. London, April 11 (A.P.).—A hopeless love affair is thought to have been the motive which caused Capt. John Pitt Dening, international polo player, to shoot himself in a London hotel Tues- day night. The coroner’s inquest which inquired into the mysterious death today re- turned a verdict of suicide while of unsound mind. Capt. Dening himself, in a note, intimated that his act might have been due to injuries which he suffered on the polo field ten years ago. A friend, Vivian Champion de Gres- pigny, testified that he had seen the captain several times recently and that the latter was upset about. hopeless love affair. Capt. Dening shot himself through the right eye with a revolver. $50,000 Fund Left By Leopold for Son Other Brothers of Bobby Franks’ Slayer Will Share $500,000. Chicago, April 11 (A.P.).—A _ trust fund of $50,000 “for the care and main- tenance” of his son, Nathan F. Leopold, jr.. who with Richard Loeb is serving a life sentence in Joliet Prison for the murder of Bobby Franks, is provided in the will of the late Nathan F. Leo- pold, filed for probate here today. The document specifies that the fund: may be dissolved at any time by Fore- man N. and Samuel Leopold, elder brothers of Nathan, jr. The remainder of the $500,000 estate is divided equally between Foreman and Samuel. The will mentions that no provision is made for Mr. Leopold’s second wife, whom he married in 1927, as she was provided for in a prenuptial agreement. COAST GUARD PLANS CHECK ON AIRPLANES CONTINUED FROM PAGE I. tion may be given are to be furnished by the National Aerorautic Associa- tion under the proposed plan. In effect, the system will work as a combined observation and message re- lay service. As an airplane, bound along an established coastal airway, passes over a coast guard station, ‘he man on duty at that station will tele- phone ahead to the next, giving a brief description of the plane, its make and typ®. and approximate speed. If he pane is not sighted at the next sta- tion within a reasonable period of time. a telephone call will be sent back ind an immediate search started. No routine reports to airways opera- tors or airports will be made. The en- tire purpose of the checking system will be to secure immediate service in case of trouble, and the stations will work among themselves unless outside assistance is deemed necessary. Fifteen stations from Charleston, S. C.. to Rockaway, N. Y., have been ten- tatively named as checking points. Commander Hall pointed out that Coast Guard stations maintain a watch throughout the areas under their su- pervision 24 hours a day during 365 days a year With this condition it would be impossible for an airplane to pass within sight of such a station at any time of the day or night without being noticed and reported. Airport operators will be requested. when the plan goes into effect, to no- tify the nearest Coast Guard station of its time of departure, destination and proposed route. Operators will also be requested to instruct their pilots to fiy past Coast Guard stations near enough and at a sufficiently low alti- tude to insure their planes being seen and recognized. Commander Hal] pointed out that during the search for the missing Si- korsky amphibian last month more than 160,000 square miles of land and water were searched from the air. When the present plan is put into effect, the maximum area necessary to be searched will be only 1,500 square miles. MRS. GANN IN PLACE OF HONOR AT AMBASSADOR'S DRY DINNER CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. cided to accord her the status of the wife of a Vice President. The liquor question, however, was finally decided by the Chilean Ambas- sador himself. There were several con- siderations that swayed him. There wag tite incongruity of invit- ing Secretary of. Treasury Mellon. in whose department. the work of prohibi- tion enforcement is located, members of President Hoover's Cabinet, White House officials and the Vice President to watch the legal violation of United States prohibition laws by immune diplomats. All servants employed to serve the liquor at the dinner would be trans- porting and handling it in violation of the dry laws. Strictly speaking, the Pan- Atnerican Union Building, where the dinner was held, could not exactly 2 considered as Chilean territory even for tne eve- ning. . Then there was Presiaent ‘ioover’s inaugural plea for law oservarc: by individual] citizens of the United Staccs, many of whom would be present at the dinner. The guests included seven members of the Hoover Cabinet, Justice ilarian FP. Stone, of the Supreme Court Seua- tors Jones (Republican). of Washing- ton,. author of the Jones law; King (Democrat), of Utah; Capper (Repubii- can), of Kansas;..Copeland (Democrat), of New York, as well as several mem- bers of the House of Representatives and officials of the State Department Ordinarily approximately 116 quarts of red and white wine, champagne and other liquors would have been required to quench the thirsts of guests at a gathering as large as last night’s din- ner. Despite the fact that Senator Cole Blease, of South Carolina, who admits that he drinks, but votes dry, has let it be known that he intends to launch an attack upon diplomatic liquor at the coming session of Congress, it is understood that last night’s dry din- ner sets no precedent for Ambassador Davila within his own home. Many other dinners are in ‘prospect at the Chilean Embassy in the near future that surely will not be dry and it ils understood that omission of wines from last night’s table deos not ,com- mit Chile’s Ambassador to personal support of prohibition, nor is it to be considered as an expression of his per- sonal views. The simple fact is that last night’s dinner was too much of an official affair from the point of view of the United States Government to warrant the customary display of diplomatic immunity in the matter of prohibited beverages. 12, 1929. cuintinieeiiee — Whether Ambassador Davtla's dry ad- venture last night will s:milar reception among the members of the foreign serve as a precedent for future diplo- matic dinners was a topic of conversa- tion in many quarters last night, (Copyright, 1929.) meet with a: diplomatic corps and | — — — — —— — — CREDITORS REDUCE DEMANDS ON BEALIN Hope to Surprise by Moderate Terms to Be Presented; Alternatives Given. U. S. SHARE UNREVEALED Paris, April 11 (N.Y.W.NS.)—Ger- many will be asked tomorrow or by Saturday at the latest to agree to a plan for final liquidation of her war ob- ligations, which is described as “well within her capacity to pay.” This new and revised reparations bill was nearly completed this evening after four days of almost continuous sittings between the French, British, Italian and Belgian experts of the Young commit- tee Owen D. Young, chairman of the committee; J. P. Morgan and technical experts connected with the American delegation attended some of these sit- tin presented to Dr. gs. The bill to be Schatht, head of the German delega- tion, is not in the form of a direct pro- posal, but will be put forward as & basis for discussion. The prevailing hopeful- ness that a definite settlement of the reparations problem will soon be reached indicates that the Asures un⸗ der discussion are about’ what Mr. Young let it be understood a fortnight ago he considered a fair settlement. Hope to Please Berlin. Though different annuity schedules were discussed in detail today and will not definitely be settled until tomorrow) morning, the figures which the corre- spondent cabled last night appear still to be the basis of the annuities Ger- many’'s creditors will ask tomorrow. There was a disposition in today’s discusgions, however, to increase the earlier annuities, which will be covered at least one-third by deliveries in kind, and reduce the later ones in compensa~ tion. An increase, for example, of $11,- 910,000 in the earlier annual payments could be compensated by a cut of $47,- 640,000 in the annuities of the terminal years, so that Ge:many’s creditors, in presenting their bill, ask for initial payfhents of about $404,000,000 annu- ally and cut the later annuities of the 37 years payment period well below the present “standard annuity” of $600,- 000,000. The indication is that Germany's creditors would like to surprise Ger- man opinion by the moderation of their” joint note as compared with their schedules presented ‘ndividually to Dr. Schacht just before the Easter recess. U. 8S. Share in Balance. In the general process of reducing vhe claims made in those memoranda by about one-fourth there has been no in- dication of what may be done about the American share for damage claims and the cost of occupation. These claims represent 24% per cent of the amount Germany was ‘o pay under the Spa agreement. In the scaling down process the percentages of the Spa agreement are said, however, to have been followed with some concessions, notably a slight one to Italy to bring her percentage high enough" to cover her war debts. The new bill will leave it within Ger- many’s choice either to pay after the first 37 years sufficient to cover the war debts of the allies to America each year until the war débt agreements expire. or to compensate by bigger payments in the earlier years, on the basis of the present-day value of th. remote pay- ments otherwise due between the thir- ty-seventh and fifty-eighth years.

One path was barely discernable al- most due east from Guion, he said, and the other was in a northeasterly direc- tion. The former apparently traveled in the direction of Swifton and Lorado, the other striking just east of Bates- ville at Morefield. “I flew about 20 miles west of Guion and then started back east along the White River. There is a large bend in the river. This bend afforded the storm easy access to Gulon, situated on a bluff.

House Is Lifted Twice. «Memphis, Tenn., April 11 (A.P.).— Ciaude. Clark, 27, of ater Wynne, Ark., told today how the tornado last eve- ning lifted his house twice, set it on one end and then a moment later smashed it into splinters. The tweive occupants all escaped with their lives. Clark gave an eye-witness account of the twisters’ antics as he stood beside an operating table at Baptist Memorial Hospital while surgeons ministered to his father. S. N.

The very air seemed to warn us that something terrible was going to happen. Then we began to hear a distant roar. It grew louder and louder. Wind began to whistle in the trees and around the house. “The roar boomed down on us. We were all sitting in a bedroom at the end of the house when the tornado struck. The house was lifted up and banged down. It was lifted up a sec- ond time and we were all thrown around inside. It was set down on end and beds, chairs. pictures and human beings were all in a mass on the wall. Saw Trees Float in Air. “The house began to shake. We were shuffled around on the ceiling. Then there was a terrific crash and the house flew into splinters. I was under a few pieces of timber. I stood up, but something flying through the air hit Me across the face and knocked me down. It dazed me, but when my head cleared I began to dig in the wreckage for the others. By the lightning flashes I could see giant trees floating through the air. “Parts of houses—roofs and walls— would go roaring through the air. The rain came down in such sheets that I felt as if I was drowning. And all the time the thunder was banging and the tornado was roaring. The bolts of lightning were so vivid shat they seem- ed like they were striking in my face. “Soon the storm began to die down. I found my brother and’ a nephew, who had been sitting on my knees when the storm struck, buried under a bed piled high with wreckage.” Finally, he said, all of the family were extricated, ang it was determined that only the el Clark suffered se- rious injuries. “That —— —* at nent day —that's only wa ow to it,” Clark added. * Train Races With Gale.

PLANS FURTHER INQUIRY Representative L. C. Dyer (Republi- can), of St. Louls, who, on Wednesday. flatly denied that he khew anything about the matter, yesterday admitted that he had protested to the New York Curb Market Association concerning his speculation losses in Hiram Walker Distillery stock. He stated that he also had ,protested to the broker who sold himy the securities. When asked Wednesday whether he had demanded reimbursement from the curb exchange management for his losses, the St. Louis representative said: “I know nothing about the matter. I have made no demand. You can say there is nothing in it.” Later on Wednesday when shown the report from New York that the curb exchange officers had said they had re- ceived a protest from him, Dyer as- serted that if the curb management wanted to give out anything all details must come from that source. Given Prominence in Papers. The newspapers yesterday morning devoted almost as much space to the story as they had given to the alleged liquor smuggling by Representatives William M. Morgan and M. Alfred Michaelson. They made much of the fact that Dyer had been a consistent wet and that he was ranking Repub- lican member of the House judiciary committee which passes on all prohibi- tion legislation, Commenting more freely yesterday on the protest, Dyer said he was not so much concerned with his losses through the Hiram Walker “flyer” as he was in the propriety of the curb exchange listing a security of a com- pany manufacturing liquor, now con- traband in the United States. a ae “I want to raise the question of the legality ‘of listing distillery stocks on the American exchanges, which I in- tend to investigate further,” Dyer said. He would not indicate whether he ex- pected to ask for a congressional in- vestigation of the matter, which sie could easily get through his influence on the judiciary committee. “Tipped” by Friend, He Says. # “I bought Hiram Walker as a legiti- mate investment just as I have bought other securities in the past,” Dyer con- tinued. “A friend of mine in a broker’s office telephoned me one day, and recommended that I buy Hiram Walker. I had confidence in his financial judg- ment and told him to buy some for me. I had no idea at the time that it was a distillery security and when ] subsequently learned that it was & Canadian company manufacturing liquor I was astounded. “The stock was not listed as Hiram Walker Distillery, merely as Hiram Walker D. My loss was small, not enough to worry about.” Newspapers yesterday pointed out that Hiram Walker was 4 favorite spec- ulative stock on the Curb and that it had skyrocketed in January to 93 but at present was around 70. The tip was current in Washington and New York that the company was due for a rise because large quantities of its two popular brands, “Canadian Club” and “Imperial,” were being shipped illicitly into the United States to satisfy de- mands of American consumers. When the tip was circulated, the fact that the company made these two popular brands of whisky was considered a good reason for buying the securities. Bought 200 Shares, Is Report. Dyer would not say how many shares of stock he had bought nor the exact amount he had lost. One report here was to the effect that he bought 200 shares through two brokerage houses. “My letters to the exchange and to the brokerage house were more two call attention to what I regarded as a vio- lation of the law than to my losses,” Dyer said. “The spirit of the prohibition law is violated by the listing of these sec&r- ties. In my opinion the curb exchange contributes to this violation as do the newspapers which advertise this secur- ity. The prohibition law specifically provides against advertising of liquor.” Dyer evidently was distressed at the publicity his letters had received. He would not consent to making them public, and added that if the brokerage house wanted to make known the let- ter he had written to it, that would be its own affair.

SOCIALISTS TO URGE CUT Geneva, April 11 (A.P.)-——-Two an- nouncements today warned Geneva ments of the world was about to open here. One was that an important delega- tion of the International Socialist Par- ty will arrivé on Monday to present a manifesto to the press urging world dis- armament. The other was that the So- viet delegation has engaged an entire floor of a hotel near the conference meeting place. Maxim Litvinoff, acting commissar for foreign affairs, who heads the delegation, last year invited the nations to disarm. Newspaper correspondents are wait- ing with interest to see if the Ameri- can delegate, Ambassador Hugh 8. Gib- son, has any suggestion, and they also are attempting to discover if there is any foundation for the re that the British government may submit helpful suggestions. U. 8. Delegates Silent. Those of the American delegation now attending the tnternational con- ference for suppression of counterfeit- ing have been besieged for statements on the American program, but without result. It was reported today that Dr. J. Loudon, of the Netherlands, ‘presi- dent’ of the preparatory commission for the disarmament conference, had aban- doned the idea of offering a detailed agenda and will let she comference ‘it- self determine what matters it will at- tempt to settle. | The Russians are expected to insist on early discussion of their project of partial disarmament which. was pre- sented at the last meeting as their total disarmament scheme Was rejected. As delegates began converging on Geneva today, there were unconfirmed reports in league circles. that Great Britain contemplates advancing some suggestion on the naval question be- fore the British general elections calcu- ‘lated to hasten an arrangement with the other naval United States. Two Categories Possible. One suggestion discussed in league circles js that the powers might agree to have two categories of cruisers with the privilege of transferring tonnage from one category to another in accord- ance with. the specific needs of the Yana ticular power, for instance Great t- ain would have the right to transfer her allotted total tonnage of cruisers into small cruisers needed for her ex- powers, especially the tensive patrolling work. Loridon, April 11 (A.P.).—The British foreign office today declined to com- ment on reports from Geneva that new British proposals on the naval question were being rumored there. It was emphasized that the Geneva agenda had not been fixed and that the air was full of reports of what the delegates to the preparatory disarma- ment conference have in mind. It was felt: on Downing street that it would be likely to be more helpful to the cause of disarmament not to make any comment which might prejudice the commission’s work. It was learned authoritatively that there was no rea- son why new suggestions should not be made prior to the British general elections, Comment Here Withheld. (Associated Press.) Lacking detailed information, admin- istration officials withheld comment yesterday on suggestions at Geneva that Great Britain.might propose two categories of cruisers at the forthcom- ing preliminary arms conference with each power given the privilege of inter- changing ships between the two classes. Whether such a British proposal would alter the situation materially would depend upon the types of ships proposed for the two categories. The United States has heid out for the right to. build all. 10,000-ton cruisers within the maximum allowed for that class of fighting craft on the ground that such ships alone wil] meet its peculiar needs On the other hand, Great Britain has proposed sharp limitation upon this size of cruisers, with the bulk of the maximum tonnage to be made up of smaller ships, of the 6,500 or 6,000 tons class, as the ones needed for the ex- tensive patrol work. Behind the British proposal, how- ever, American Government officials recognize the possibility that Great Britain could make effective as war agencies the vast number of merchant liners under the British flag which have been equipped with mounts for 6-inch ns. Ships carrying such guns manifestly would be at a great disadvantage against the 10,000-ton cruisers equipped with 8-inch rifles, as will be those built or building in the United States. Should Great Britain propose that one nation could devote all its maxi- mum cruiser tonnage to 10,000-ton ves- sels while another might have the priv- ilege of constructing 6,000-ton ships ex- clusively, a long step would have been taken toward a limitation agreement in the view held in naval circles here. Trotzky Is Denied Haven in Germany Former Soviet War Chief Is Held an Undesirable by Reichstag. Berlin, April 11 (A.P.).—The Ger- man cabinet, after considering the matter since the middle of February, decided today that Leon Trotzky, former Soviet war commissar, would not be a desirable resident within the republic, even in the status of an in- valid, as he had described himself. It therefore decided to refuse his request for a visa, which would permit him to seek the advice of German physicians. Soon after Trotzky emerged from his isolation in Turkestan and became an exile in Constantinople he sought ad- mission to Germany. President Paul Loebe of the Reichstag earlier had told that body that “perhaps” Germany some day might grant asylum to Mr. Trotzky. The matter dragged on with frequent pleadings from the exile and protests from those who foresaw trou- ble from his presence. Meanwhile, France, Belgium and Czechoslovakia let it be known rather informally that they were not eager to receive the former Soviet leader. A more liberal attitude was said to await him in Switzerland. traditional haven for political refugees. but no formal move has been made for his admission. Trotzky has been relieved of confins- ment in the Soviet Legation in Con- santinople and now is living in a pri- vate house.

Annapolis, Md., April 11.—Gov. Ritch- ie was joined at Annapolis today by State Senator David J. McIntosh, of Baltimore County, and E. Brooke Lee, of Montgomery County, when all af- fixed their signejures to the last group of bills padsed at the last session of the General Assembly: A total of 520 new laws will be placed upon the statute books. Fifty-eight bills were vetoed. Two local bills affecting Prince Georges County were vetoed. One re- lated to police justices. The governor explained that it was invalid, under decisions of the court of appeals be- cause it contained no enacting clause. The bill would have increased the sal- ary of the clerk of the police court from $1,500 to $1,800 per year. The other bill vetoed extended the corporate limits of Mount Rainier. This measure was defectively drawn and those in- terested in it requested ite veto. An- other bill with similar provisions was subsequently passed and approved. The governor vetoed the bill known as the county auto license measure, designed to empower clerks of courts in the counties to issue automobile tags and negotiate other transactions, for which they would receive a fee of 25 cents each. The governor consid- ered this plan impracticable. A coOm- mission appointed by him to inveati- gate the situation unanimously reached the same conclusion. ' Another bill vetoed was a senate measure designed to exclude other than native-born citizens from em- ployment at the race tracks in the State. This bill was directed chiefly at Canadians, employed in varioug ca- pacities. The governor pointed out that such a law would be in violation of the Federal Constitution.

A demand that the extra session of Congress which convenes Monday give immediate attention to the “orgy of Exchange was made here last night by Senator Capper (Republican), of Kan- sas, leader of the Senate farm bloc, who warned it may end in “a sudden crash unless checked.” Capper declared that the “Wall street gambling mania” is drawing money needed by agriculture from Western banks into the call loan money market, because of attractive high rates, and that this is threatening general pros- — poet Called the speculation “a tic er game.” Rmmuitaapousts with Capper’s state- ment, — released yesterday by the Federal Reserve Board showed a decline Of $184,000,000 in loans to brokers in the week ended April 10, an indication that the Reserve Board's warning has been effective in checking the specula- tive movement somewhat.

The Board of Education has decided to in- clude a request for $3,000,000 to be used for school buildings and grounds in its estimate of funds for next year, This will be in addi- tion to the fund requested for current ex- penses. The Board of Education has the support of a large portion of the Washington civic or- ganizations. It should likewise have the sup- port of public sentiment and the cooperation ’ of the District Commissioners in securing this extra fund for the schools, which are in a deplorable condition. Construction of new schools and extension of playgrounds have been postponed from year-to year. Further neglect is intolerable. One phase of the situation Was brought to public attention early in March when a high wind damaged three portable buildings and the pupils narrowly escaped injury. It was then revealed that the Board of Education is forced to make use of 75 portable buildings, housing 2,500 children, because it can not secure adequate funds to provide suitable schoolhouses. Children attending a number of the schools must risk their lives by playing in the streets, because funds are not available for purchase of playgrounds. Complaints come from one school that its furniture has been in use continuously for 50 years and is in a dangerous condition. The District government is in need of funds for various projects besides education, but it is evident that the schools are-not getting their share of the revenue. received. Last year the total revenue of the District was $42,- 000,000, of which the schools received ap- proximately $11,000,000. This is only a little more than one-fourth of the total. The aver- age expenditures of other municipalities and States for educational purposes amount to al- most one-third of their combined revenue. If Washington children are to have equal oppor- tunity in education with those of other parts of the country it is imperative that a greater sum be allowed for new schools and facilities. Washington is growing rapidly. Unless imme- diate steps are taken to catch up in school- eonstruction the District will face heavy extra faxation to meet this need. MONOPOLY, OR COMPETITION? The long-awaited terms for the formation of a holding company in which will be merged British wireless and cable companies were announced early in the week. The terms. in- volve a complicated exchange of stock in which the new company, namely, Cables & Wireless, Ltd., will absorb the Eastern, Eastern Exten- sion and Western Telegraph companies and the Marconi Wireless Telegraph Co., Ltd. In the meantime, it has been stated authori- tatively that President Hoover will leave to Congress the question of amending the radio law which prohibits mergers of radio and cable systems. Senator Dill, an authority on the radio law, in a public statement asserts that he is utterly opposed to repeal of the “antimonopoly” clause of the statute. The radio act of 1927 provides that it shall be unlawful for any person or firm “receiving for hire energy, communications or signais by radioꝰ to “lease’”’ or “directly or indirectly ac- quire, own, control or operate any cable or wire, telegraph or telephone line or system if the “effect thereof may be to substantially lessen competition or restrain commerce, or unlawfully to create monopoly in any line of commerce.” A similar clause prohibits a cable company from absorbing a radio system. Senator Dill asserts that the fact that two companies now seek to form a merger that would violate the statute “proves that Con- gress showed fine foresight in establishing the prohibitfon. Instead of creating a greater monopoly, Congress should prevent that which already exists from becoming more powerful.” It may be that Senator Dill voices the general sentiment of Congress, In this connection the statement made by Mr. Hoover in 1924 before the House commit- tee in charge of radio legislation is of interest. - The question of mon@poly in radio communication must be squarely met. It is not conceivable that the American peo- _ple will allow this new-burn system of _ °€ommunication to fall exclusively into the ee pe wer of any individual,: group or com- The proposed merger of the Radio Corpora- ion Communications and the International mated unless the Government advises that ‘ds not in violation of law. or unless the law selfis amended. It may be assumed that this erger plan will be carefully scrutinized by partment of Justice. The disposition to bring about consoll-. constantly to the edge of , | trust law, and in this case the ng re Ne See” gt, Meee ; ele hon & Telegraph Co. can not be con- A a radio law also apparently is an insuperable barrier. Mergers often promote better service and eliminate ‘“‘destructive competition,” but the temptation to creat monopolies is always present. The arrangement between American Telephone & Telegraph Co. and the Radio Corporation, whereby patents are so allotted as to give the telephone company the power to suppress wireless telephony, while the Radio Corporation can keep the telephone company out of the radio field, has already been criticized as a combination that is not en- tirely in the public interest. The entire field of communications is under- going an evolution as a result of new inven- tions. Whether radio ought to be a regulated monopoly, or whether competition should be maintained by law, is a knotty problem for Congress to decide. — — — AMERICAN SHIPS GO WET. The Leviathan, flagship of the United States Lines, which recently was sold to the Chapman interests, sailed on her maiden voyage under the new management as a wet ship. Under an order issued by Joseph E. Sheedy, executive vice president of the new operating organiza- tion, her medicinal liquor stores were released for individual consumption after she had passed out of territorial waters. When she reaches France a supply of liquor will be placed aboard. When she reaches the 12-mile limit inbound, the store of medicinal liquor will be sealed, not to be reopened except in emergency until she again passes out of terri- torial waters, and whatever is left over above the legal medicinal allotment will be destroyed. As the other ships comprising the United States Lines pass to Chapman control a similar policy will be introduced. The sale of liquor aboard the Chapman ves- sels probably will provoke a dispute, Officials of the Shipping Board, the Customs Service and the Treasury Department insist that they have no interest in the matter, and there seems to be little doubt that the sale of liquor on American-owned boats on the high seas is lawful. Once before, however, prohibitionists succeeded in preventing the sale of liquor aboard ships of the United States Lines, and although control of these ships has passed from the Government to private interests, it is probable that attempts will be made to bring them under the prohibition laws. The decision to sell liquor aboagd the Levia- than was made to meet competition. It is generally admitted that many travelers have preferred foreign vessels to those of the United States Lines because the latter were dry. In view of the fact that the new Ameri- can merchant marine must be built around the United States Lines, which must face ex- tremely active competition, the right to sell liquor to passengers becomes an important question. — — — — FRENCH EMBARGO ON FILMS. For many months the American motion pic- ture industry has been fighting to retain its French market. A year or so ago France decided that it would be necessary to afford protection to the French movie industry, and with this in mind there were adopted a series of restrictions governing the importation of films. The American industry opposed the restrictions, and through the personal effort of Will Hays succeeded in léssening their severity. The Hays compromise agreement is about to expire, and France has worked out a new set of regulations governing the importation of films. Briefly, they provide that importers are to be allowed a limited number of permits under which films may be brought into France. Additional permits may be obtained only by purchase from French producers, who are granted three importation permits for each film they produce. Such an arrangement, says the American producer, would force him either to subsidize the French producer or to become a French producer himself. The ar- rangement is not acceptable, and it has just been announced that when the present agree- ment expires the American companies supply- ing films to France will close their offices and withdraw from the country. French films, with the exception of the so- called superproductions, are inferior to the American, and the French public has learned the difference between an interesting and a poor picture. It does not seem likely that the people of that country will be willing to forego American pictures. CHINESE POLITICAL MOVES. An interesting situation has arisen in China. A few days ago the Nationalist government clinched its victory over the rebellious Wuhan army by capturing Hankow, the chief city in the industrial district. Now a dispatch, which was delayed by the strict censorship of the press, diminishes the importance of the vic- tory, and expresses fear of new hostilities from another source. To further complicate mat- ters, President Chiang Kai-shek has issued a proclamation from Hankow, declaring his in- tention to return to the capital at Nanking and resign. Interpreted from Western standards, the resignation of the president at this time would mean certain chaos for China. But it is quite likely that Chiang Kai-shek, in spite of his self-cohdemnation for neglecting ‘to take ef- fective precautionary measures against the re- cent incident,” is merely making a clever political move. The incident referred to is the recent revolt. President Chiang blames himself for it publicly, and writes that he “‘is ashamed to return to his post.’’ This sounds puerile in America, but it is quite customary in China for a political leader to resort to such tactics. Twice before during the last two years, Chiang Kai-shek has resigned from leadership in the Nationalist party, but each time he has been recalled because of his ability as a medi- ator between the different factions. Observers are of the opinion that if his resignation should be formally tendered he will be asked to reconsider it. This would, of course, have a tendency. to strengthen his position and that of the central government. Chiang has se- cured the allegiance of many factions to the Nanking government by conflicting promises which mean embarrassment for him. If he can retire long enough for those promises to be canceled the strength of the Nationalist cause would be greatly enhanced. _. It. President Chiang should insist on retir- ing, it is considered likely that Marshal Feng 2 2 ts @ the THE WASHINGTON POST: — —“ Yuhsiang would be his successor. Marshal Feng has been the mystery man in the recent revolt. For some time he was expected to join with the opposing Wuhan army, but he remained loyal to the Nationalists. It is gen- erally «believed, however, that he is merely awaiting a better opportunity to strike against the existing regime. In case of Chiang’s resignation that opportunity would be at hand. A CENSUS OF UNEMPLOYMENT. One of the problems which have been promised attention by the Hoover administra- tion is that of unemployment. There has been much talk in recent years of relief for the un- employed, but little of a substantial nature has been done. The facts are that little is known about unemployment in this country. When the number out of work is increased unduly the matter provokes much discussion, but the United -States has never had any accurate figures on the number unemployed gt any one time. Under present circumstances all that can be accomplished must be based on un- certain estimates. The American Statistical Association has petitioned President Hoover to use his influ- ence to secure authentic data on unemplvy- ment in the 1930 census. Inasmuch as census legislation will probably occupy the attention of Congress at its special session it is sug- gested that the matter be considered at that time. Census information would furnish a basis on which future programs for relief of un- employment could be based. A year ago when the country was much concerned over the number of mena idle Congress directed the Secretary of Labor to report on the extent of unemployment. The report was based on the shrinkage of pay rolls between 1925 and 1928, and since there were no statistics on men out of work in 1925, it was impossible to tell whether the report was accurate or not. Other statisticlans made estimates differing by sev- eral million men from the Department of Labor figures. It is obvious that such a ques- tion can not be answered except through a census enumeration. When once a count has been made the Labor Department will be able to make much more accurate estimates through the shrinkage or growth of pay rolls in the various industries. The starting point for any systematic study of unemployment and its solution must be accurate statistics, which can Only be obtained through the census enumeration.

Uncle Sam is waving a magic wand, and from ocean to ocean the Cinderella army posts of the country are shedding their shabbiness and appearing in new and magnificent guise. Where yesterday from California to Governors Island the Colonel’s lady and Judy O’Grady were stopping up the leaks in war-time shan- ties, today they are planning the disposition of the grand piano and the electric range in villas of sprightly colonial and Spanish mis- sion architecture. Congress has already authorized $53,000,000 to rehouse the Army in the style to which it is to be accustomed, and the quartermaster general has estimated that it will take in all $148,000,000 before the work is done. For this is no mere replacement program, no sim- ple exchange of decaying, inadequate quarters for weather-tight ones. It involves the laying out and landscaping of the Army posts like model towns on a scale more harmonious and spectacular probably than that of any other system of posts on the globe. It means, for instance, the transformation of five square miles of sage-brush desert near San Antonio into the largest fly{ng field in the world, where 250 planes can be sent into the air at once and where a pleasant centra] vil- lage of 500 stucco buildings will house the pilots. It means, moreover, a more ingratiat- ing approach to New York Harbor, in the re- building of Governors Island—taking away the corrugated iron warehouses and. putting up a brick quadrangle about the old fort. On the wide new parade ground that is planned regiments can be drawn up to the admiration of whatever foreign guest the Army may honor with a parade. : It means, too, that for the first time any- where Army posts are being designed with a view to their appearance not only from land or water, but also from the air. Looking down on one of the redesigned posts when al! the plans are carried through, one will see a kind of geometric mosaic formed of the red tile of the roofs, the green of the trees, the blue of the water and the gray of the carefully spaced roads. At March Field California, for example, the gayly tinted pueblo-type offi- cers’ houses are to be arranged .in groups around patios so as to form a kind of Greek border for the whole settlement. At the new Randolph Field in Texas they are to radiate much like the spokes of a gigantic wheel. The Army has asked help of the Ameri- can Institute of Architects in its program, and has called in town-planning experts and de- signers of international repute. And the dough- boy, who two years ago was living under con- ditions which the Secretary of War teamed “a national disgrace,” is now to be housed in villages as comfortable and beautiful as na- tional talent can provide. Swimming pools, tennis courts, baseball fields, radio stations, modern hospitals and new school buildings for the children are regular parts of the plan at all the larger posts. 2 a eR eR ae % FRIDAY.

There is no better proof than the fact that there ig a bottle of mucilage on all the pub- lic desks in the postoffices. If the stickum stuck, there would not be any use for it.

To the Editor of The Post—Sir: I have just been reading Old-Timer’s in- quiry about toads causing warts on the hands. He states a case of a boy who played with toads and had numerous warts. = Here are two cases I know of person- ally: One of a boy who at one time had 58 warts on the backs of his two hands and had never handled toads, and the other of myself, a girl, who, as a small child, used to play with toads by the hour and recite the nursery rhyme about “Toad, toad, get out of the road,” &c., and I never had a wart. NOT SO OLD. Rebellious Stamps. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: “Mail Order” has the facts—‘Stamps Don’t Stick.” If the Postoffice De- partment found that they did stick and did not have to hold letters for payment of lost postage, why was the Bureau of Standards asked to find out whether they did stick? The most that the test proved, as I recall it, was that once you got a stamp stuck to an envelope, it would stay there—which is doubtless the case. But what we are in want of is a stamp that will not curl up at the edges when we are try- ing to‘stick it on, that does not re- quire prolonged repressive measures be- fore it permanently subsides and ad- heres. EWART HOBBS. They Don’t Stick. To the Editor of ‘Ine Post—Sir: The letter from “Mail Order’ in your April | 10 issue correct. The postage stamps won’t sté&k and have not for a year past. I used Carter’s or some similar glue tc hold them down; tried wetting paper first, then stamp put on dry; also stamp put on in usual manner, then the stuck-on stamp wetted on top and held down with blotter for 10 to 20 minutes. Result, the gosh-darned stamp curled up mo.- or less. I now use one cent stamps for all mail—put them on as two's. One tends to support the other. If one is partly ripped off it then shows as a guaran- tee of good faith on the part of the mailer. Up to date I have not been arrested for monkeying with the U. S. mails. My time has no value and I am delighted to work for Uncle Sam free. I trust the recording angel is alert and taking notice. GEORGE R. TOLMAN. Inventors of the Submarihe Lung.

By ROBERT QUILLEN I GNORANCE is bliss, and to multiply knowledge is to multiply sorrow. Even to the most casual observer it must be evident that the hap- piest peoples are those burdened with the least intelligence, When a man begins to think, he grows restless. He tries to unravel with the} the mystery of life, and the effort serves only to impress him fact of life’s brevity. He resents the fact of death; he covets immortality. And thus he is prompted to build a pyramid, to write a book, to give a son his own name, to entail his estate. His desire is to live after death—to be remembered by posterity—to do or say something that will continue to affect the destiny of mankind | after he is gone. | Few, perhaps, are aware of the motive that prompts them; but every proper wan yearns to “build a house, have a son and write a book’’— or to do some other thing that will. perpetuate his personality. The common man thinks he is denied the privilege of living again in his work. “I can not build a bridge,” says he, “‘nor can I write a book. None will remember me a year after I am gone, and there will be no trace of my passing.”’ * But he is mistaken. The most humble may immortalize himself, and the great may be forgotten in a generation. Monuments of stone or steel may stand for a century or a millennium; but if a man must be forgotten in a thousand years, wherein is he more fortunate than one forgotten in a day? ‘ Where are the great books of yesteryear? A few live on dusty shelves, but the many that won fame for a day are wholly forgotten. The writing men who rank high today will sleep with the street cleaners and their books will become dust. How, then, shall a man live again? A few weeks ago a politician died and men asked: “What did he accomplish?’”’ Well, he gave the world a League of Nations: That is, he effected the nomination of Woodrow Wilson. Who mace the Civil War? Some abolitionist or some fire-eating defender of slavery? No; Eli Whitney made it when he invented the cotton gin. The gin made the South a one-crop region; made it rich; filled it with slaves. Whitney still lives, , So every inventor lives. And so every man who gives the world an idea lives generation after generation. — A good deed, a kind word, a wholesome influence—any one of them may affect one man’s life and through him affect others, as ripples widen when a stone is thrown into a pool, and thus an humble man may live through all eternity. 7 (Copyright, 1929.)

It was bound to be a more or less rough count, resting large- ly on estimates by consular officers. At first blush the total, 302,668, seems rather low for a country with over a hundred million inhabitants, active in pushing foreign trade, zealous in mis- sionary enterprise. The figure is all the more striking when it is realized that nearly half of these dwellers in foreign lands reside in Canada. However, it should be noted that the persons listed are exclusively American citizens residing permanently outside the United States. That excludes tour- ists, temporary residents, naturalized citizens who have gone home to stay, and those comparatively few Americans who have exercised the “natural and inherent right of expatriation.” Some of the figures are rather strik- ing. Mexico has 14,670 American: resi- dents—more than all South America combined. France with 25,860 Ameri- cans has twice as many as Great Britain and Northern Ireland with 11,717. The American colony in Paris, by no means entirely devoted to business pursuits. must account for most of the French contingent. Germany has 3,027, Italy, 10,000. Unless this figure includes na- turalized American citizens who have returned to Italy but have not yet re- sumed their former allegiance, it is tir- ficult to see why it should be so large. An indication of the unsettled state of Russia is seen in the fact that only 150 American citizens are now residing there. China has a large number of permanently domiciled Americans, 12,233 in all, no doubt including hun- dreds of missionaries who have stuck to their posts through the recent tur- the work of conceiving and devising the apperatus, which belongs largely to Frank M. Hobson, civilian engineer and expert on respiratory apparatus, and N., expert in charge of diving experi- ments, both of the equipment section. As the writer is the officer in charge of the equipment section and has closely followed the development of the so-called “lung,” he is well cognizant of the contributions of each of the three coinventors. Among themselves they agree that each has contributed equally in the development. W. F. DIETRICH, Lieutenant Commander, U. S. N. SODAS AND CIGARS. The plan announced by David A. Schulte for combining soda fountains and cigar stores, or, as we find them labeled, smokeshops, may mean the passing of one of man’s last refuges, says the New York Evening Post. It is true that the cigar store has already been invaded by female smokers, but the new combination would remove the last vestiges of its masculine atmos- phere. It would no more be a cigar store than our modern hair-cutting establishments are barber shops. Before it is too late something should be done about preserving these relics of a civilization in which women knew that whatever their place might be, it was not in a barber shop or a cigar store. For these institutions and all their appurtenances are fast passing. But if a collection of old-fashioned shaving mugs, Police Gazettes and wooded Indians was made, something might be done to keep alive their memory at least. In explanation of his creation of the luncheonette-smokeshop Mr. Schulte decares that it is the inevitable result of woman's growing taste for cigarettes and man’s growing taste for ice cream sodas. If this is the state of affairs, the passing of the cigar store ig all Florida Times-Union sugar in a gallon of grape juice, let it alone, and it is bound to violate ec sleep between elections. That’s likely~ to be done by anybody who takes a+ stiff sock on the chin.

The position of the Attorney General is ‘that since his department .s to take over this huge new function the sooner it is done the better. The department now is in the process of more or less reorganization incident to ‘he change of administrations and the prohibition unit could be more readily absorbed in the midst of this process than at some later time. Hoover Proposed Change. President Hoover proposed the trans- fer in his inaugural address as the first in the general move for better law | nt. Antisaloon League and other dry organization leaders at first were inclined to oppose this step, but the tanding now is that they are content to give the plan atrial, es- since they desire that the Chief ve have a free hand for carrying forward his plan for enforcement of the eighteenth amendment. difficult problems are in- volved in the transfer and the working out of the necessary legislation is to require some time. Even with the dry unit placed in the Justice Department there must be close co- —— that department and . under which must be left control of the Coast Guard and the Customs Service which are cooperating in enforcement.

They felt that the sl, old rascal would not brook ‘any interference in his smuggling affairs. Mr. Jenkins received them with an anxious face. “Well, what's the news?” manded. “Several things,” replied the old de- tective. “In the first place we have managed to lose Miss Montgomery in Chinatown. We learn that she was kid- napped and carried aboard a tug by order of Ah Sam, he and your datigh- ter having sailed on the tug, also.” “You don't mean it,’ gasped fr. Jenkins. “Was that Rosa May?” “I don’t know what the name was.” “I'll bet it was. Well, well! See what it is to be old “and not able to look after my own affairs. But wait.” He rushed to the telephone and called up he de- a man by the name of Gorman. “I say. run across and see if the Rosa May is in the slip, will you?” After a minute he said, “She sailed last night. ‘Yas Ah Sam on board? Great heavens. Cept. Wimpje has betrayed me. Don’t go out for a while. Gorman. I may want to call you up again.” He turned to the Bradys. “I don’t know what to do. Oh. if there was only some one I could trust.” “What is the matter with trusting me?” asked the old ‘etective. He shook his head yloomily. “Come, come, Mr. Jenkins,” said Old King Brady. “What's the use of beating around the bush? You are in the smuggling business wita both feet and. every one knows it. Ah Sam has taken your daughter and my partner to some holdout.of yours along the coast. I’m ready to follow. All I’m out for is to find the w®6oden ido] and rescue Miss Montgomery if she needs it.” “Well, all right, then. I'll get a tug and we will chase them up. I won't tell _you where we are going. Time enough to go into details when we get there. Is that all right?” “Yes. How far?” perhaps a ittle more. Excuse me now, I'll go and see about another tug, also get ready for a start.” “What? You mean to start tonight?” “Yes, the sooner the better, if you and the young man van “We are ready, but I fear the under- taking will be too much for an old man like you.” “I don’t know that I’m ary older than you are, Brady! I’m good ‘for Many a year yet.” How little he knew what was in store for him! The old pawnbreker went up the stairs and the Bradys heard the tele- phone ring. There was a lapse of a few SO EE A: I “LAST — moments and then a startled cry rang out through the house. “Murder! Kelp! Brady! Quick!” The Bradys dashed up two flights of stairs with all speed They could hear a scuffling going on .n the back cham- ber on the second floor. They burst into the room to discover old Jenkins grappling with a Chinaman: There was blood on his coat and blood on the floor, where lay a knife “Help. Brady! I'm almost gone!” gasped Jenkins as the detectives en- tered. Probably he was, but the old man’s strength must have been enor- mous at the start. He had the Chinaman by the throat with his right hand, his arm pinioned the fellow’s left, while with his own left he. sought to wrench away the revolver. The Chinaman was black in the face, but was still struggling for all he was worth. Harry instantly covered him Old King Brady gave him a smart rap over the head with the butt of his revolver, ordering an immediate sur- render. “Let go! We've got him, Mr. Jen- kins. If he makes a move he is a dead one” cried the old detective. “Which |] am, as it is, I’m afraid!” gasped the old sinner and letting go. sank unconscious to the floor. The Chinaman was about done for, too. He dropped the revolver and tum- bled into a chair, panting and gasping. Harry. taking no chance, promptly handcuffed him. A Doctor Is Summoned. Meanwhile, Old King Brady was giv- ing first aid to the injured man. He ripped Mr. Jenkins’ coat, vest and shirt down the back, exposing’ the wound, which was directly .under the left lung. It looked as though the knife might have penetrated the lung. The wound was bleeding and the old detective bound it up with an im- provised bandage. He and Harry then lifted the sufferer on to the bed and administered whisky from Old King Brady’s flask. This seemed to revive him and he lay groaning while the old detective removed his shoes and further loosened his clothes. “Who is your doctor?” he demanded. Mr. Jenkins murmured a name and Harry quickly found it in the book and got the doctor on the phone. Thus far the Chinaman had not spoken. Old King Brady tried to ques- tion him, but all the answer he could get was, “Me no sabee Engliss.” “Brady!” gasped the wounded man, and the old detective turned to his bedside. “He stabbed me*in the back while I was talking over the phone,” he murmured. “He must have been hiding under the bed. Treachery! This is Sophy’s work.” “Ah ‘Sam’s more likely,” said Old King Brady. “The knife, penetrated the lung,” the doctor reported, on examining the wound. “He is liable to go off with a hemorrhage any moment.” This was said to the old detective and the doc- tor asked if he thought he should tell Jenkins. “I think you had better,” said Old King Brady. It was done. But the old Day Brady!

I want all of you to leave the room but Mr. Brady.” : They humored him in this, the old detective directing Harry to call up the police station and have the patrol wagon sent after the prisoner. The wagon was just arriving and Harry explaining things tc the police when Old King Brady entered the room. “He is gone!” exclaimed the doctor after one glance at the old detective. “Yes. He went off with a hemor- rhage, just as you said he would.” The police went upstairs and looked around. Not a word could be gotten out of the Chinaman. The doctor called in a man to act as caretaker and after an hour or so left the house in company with the Bradys. “Well,” he remarked, as they walked up Sixty-sixth street, “so that’s the end of old Jenkins. They say one must not speak against the dead, but all the same, 1 am going to say he was one of the meanest men in New York, and his daughter is even meaner than he was. He must have left a lot of money behind him, which will astonish every one when it comes to light. There'll be a great scramble among his credi- tors now.” “Does he owe much?” asked the old detective. “He owes every one who would trust him, myself included,” was his reply After he had gone Harry questioned his chief. “Yes,” replied the old detective. “He told me whefe his ‘smuggling hangout is.” And he named a certain point on the. Jersey coast, “Why, the old man owns three tugs outright, if you will believe it,” the old detective went oh to say. “I’ve got the address of this man Gorman who has them in charge. It’s Rutgers slip.” | “Goimg to use one of his?” “No. The captains are not all in the deal, of course, but this one might make us trouble. We'll get a tug of our own with a few extra men in the crew, and make as .qjuick a start as possible.” They proceeded to Coenties Slip, where many tugs tie up. The one the Bradys engaged was the Sprite, Capt. Van Voorhis, who got four men from a lodging house nearby. It was after 1 when they got under way W*th the long run ahead there was nothing bet- ter than to go to bed and rest. The old detective had learned noth- ing of the wooden idol, for the dying pawnbroker had insisted up to his last moment that he would recover: Thus the Bradys were still in the dark Another chapter of this thrilling serial is in tomorrow’s issue.

EVERAL stern ladies have written me strong letters this week about infidelity. They are very much surprised to see me badly “defend it in the public press.” They could be more surprised than I would be to see my- self defend it in the public press or elsewhere. So I hunted back to see where, when, how, é&c., and found that I had told a young wife whose husband had been flirting with a young teacher, that in her place I would not consider our love over. The stern ladies say I am a most improper person, and should be censored and suppressed. Is it wicked to .-.. a young wife the truth about marriage? After ‘all we, every one of us, know that a man can love his wife, and still be an idiot on impulse, or temporarily. And we all know that you can’t kill love so easily, that a wife could never forgive a silly episode, no matter how exasperating. The two people whose conduct was under discussion had not gone further than a sort of simpering interest in each other, and the husband, very foolishly I think, had confided the whole matter to his wife, asking her to remove temptation by letting the fair boarder in their home move to the hotel. Personally, 1 think his “confession” is ‘harder to forgive than hjs two-penny adventure. A husband should be able to find his way about alone, meet his problems and his wife’s too, instead of tugging at her apron strings to have his .burnt fingers kissed, and his love life analyzed, There is no sense in defending in- fidelity, or rain or sun stroke or any of those things. They are beyond argu- ment. They just are. But when some one very young seems to believe that infidelity or sun siroke places the vic- tim beyond the pale of human accept- to come forward with a little sanity. Why should two persons who have been happily married for years, sud- denly wrench themselves apart. tear themselves up by the roots, suffer and agonize, simply because one or the other has momentarily loitered by the way to gaze upon some passing stranger? Is it sound reasoning? Does it help? About everybody 1 know has been divorced more than once. I can not see that second choices are any better than first,.or that divorce does much or any- thing except invite nervous break- downs,. If people love each other they suffer in punishing each other, - espe- cially unjustly. And I believe it unjust to punish a husband by leaving. him, because he has acted: like an idiot. Perhaps that is because in my opinion acting like an idiot is second nature to man... In any cabe I do not defend in- fidelity when I advise a wife to ignore a man’s childish attempt to be a Barry- more, especially when the attempt lands him at her feet in tears. What is this marriage business any- way that we expect such miracles in its name? Human ‘eings have a most distressing way of doing the things na- ture seems to expect them to do, and I, for one, am through expecting them to walk over nature's dead body. to prove something or other. I apologize for shocking stern ladies, ‘but J hope I’m censored and suppressed both, if I ever tell a wife to leave a man she loves, just. because he cries on her shoulder and tells her he’s been making eyes at the school teacher. If that “he treason, it’s at least sense. —SS === “WINNIE WINKLE, THE BREAD WINNER = = — — — — To Vhom It May Concern THiS AIN'T A JOB!

AST week, in considering what was required to justify a Jump oi part- ner’s suit-bid. we found that there were four elements of strength whfch the assisting hand might have, viz.. high cards, ability to ruff, more than normal length in partner’s suit (1. e. more than three cards), and a‘ strong five-card side suit. The counts ai- lowed for high cards were fully ex- plained. In determining the vaiue of a hand for jumping purposes, thece four elements must al] be considered: but they are being described separately so they can be easily undefstood Under the head of “ability to ruft,” @ blank suit is rated as 8, a singleton How to Keep Well — By DR W A EVANS. Ly, BABIES AND WHEAT SUGAR. R. ROGER DENNETT advocates D giving babies sugar made from wheat germ daily throughout the first year of life. This replaces malt sugar, milk sugar and other forms of sugar more commonly used. The quanity he advises is one level table- spoonful daily. Since this is the most laxative of all the sugars, the quanity should be decreased if the bowels ate loose. Other children can use cereal made from wheat or breads of the same sort, provided the cereal or bread contains the germ of the grain. Yeast serves the same purpose, but as a rule, is less palatable. He advises wheat germ sugar for many breast fed babies as wel] as for those reared on the bottle. This ad- vice is based on the following: A great many babies lose their appe- tites when they are about nine or ten months old. In addition, these babies stop growing and become flabby and listless. His explanation of. this com- bination of symptoms is a deficiency of the diet in vitamin B. The ordinary baby diet is apt to be deficient in this vitamin even when the baby is at the breast or when he is gett.®g a proper milk mixture supplemented by a little fruit juice and cod liver oil. The deficiency is not great and, in consequence, the baby runs along on a fairly normal schedule until he begins to get below the proper vitamin B level. The ordinary baby food is somewhat deficient in this protective agent. For instance, 10 ounces of good milk con- tains only as. much of it as is found in a tablespoon of wheat germ sugar. or even less yeast. This vitamin is probably a combination of two or.three substances, one of which promotes growth and appetite. Another protects against constipation and various neu- ralgic pains and the other prevents and Others who have recognized the im- nce of vitamin B deficiencies in he baby diets have added yeast to bring them up to par. -Dr. Dennett found it difficult to give yeast to babies. He, therefore, selected wheat In order to get away from the tendency of wheat germ to become rancid or otherwise spoil, he made use of sugar made from the germ. He gave this as a matter of routine to a group of 150 babies. The experiment was Kept up for months. The babies grew faster than the average, did not develop poor appetites and thrived generally.

WASHINGTON: FRIDAY, APRIL 12, 1929. ROOKIES HOLD GIANTS TO 2 HITS IN NAT. ” Qe School Series * Nines Play Today Western and Eastern to Open Race in Lat- ter’s Stadium. Both Teams Prepared for Game; Eastern Defends Title. IGH schoo! series baseball for the season of 1929 begins today, weather permitting, with East- ern engaging Western in the opener at the Eastern Stadium at 3:15 o'clock. The Eastern Stadium is the-new s for the games this year, the scene hdv- ing Stadium where the games were always Played before. Both teams are reacy for their re- spective debuts, having completed their practice work yesterday in final prepa- rations for the game. Eastern’s line-up is practically decided with the possible exception of its startlug pitcher, while Western's is still somewhat doubtful because of the uncertainty of occu- Ppancy of one or two positions. — The bable battery for Eastern will be Phillips and Snyder, although “Cac” Curtin might get the call on the mound. Coach Guyon also has Hanna and Miles available and will decide definitely before game time. George Pletcher is the one certainty for West- erm in that team’s staring line-up, and he will pitch, with Quincy Owens the most probable catcher. Fletcher in a A yesterday looked fit and * Eastern Outhelders Appear 4 : Te Be Bess of Lot. - Eastern will be defending the cham- onship it won last year. Western will endeavoring to start the series with an in an effort to get in the win column. On poy Eastern looms as the strongest of the two chiefly be- cause of the many veteran players in its line-up. The team nas one of the strongest, if not the best. outfields in the series, including Shapiro, Ware and Wood. This trio, in addition to being @ hard-hitting group, is strong defen- sively, which will go a tong ways in cu down many a hit labeled for Shapiro, Ware and Wood rate better than the collection of H. Thompson, Worthi Parks, McAlwee and Al- bert, of Western, because of fheir ex- nee. The same goes for the in- eld. McCullough, Cappelli, Edwards and Fisher, — — men ies of Cappelli, appear to e combination than Freeman, Schneider, Hunt and Eby, of Western. _ Hunt is the only experienced man in the group, he having been an all-high selection at shortstop last year. Four Pitchers Ready to Start For Defending Champs. Eastern appears to have the edge in catching also. Experience again makes this so in that Snyder, although only @ reserve last year, has developed quickly in winning the first-string backstopping berth this year. Owens, a baseman, is down to handle the catching for Western. If he can fill the bill in any manner of form as Bob Wilson did last year, then the catching will be well handled. ring the fact that pitching elways has to be considered in base- ball, Hastern appears to be the better fixed for pitchers, despite the fact that mone on the present staff were regu- lars last year. Where,Western has only Fletcher to rely on, Eastern has four in Phillips, Curtin, Hanna and Miles, mentioned before. All four of the latter group has shown marked ability this year in the early-season workouts, Which gives Eastern the edge. Should ohe fail, there will be three others to call upon. Western does have a youngster named Albert, in addition to Fletcher, but he can not be rated CONTINUED ON PAGE 14, COLUMN 7 Ji; : —\ APS S/ | WA — * . » x ; . / ~.

Dawsoni’s Conqueror, Today. Voigt, Defending His Title, Beats Eaton; Plays Finlay Next. INEHURST, N. C., April 11 (N.Y. W.N.S.)-—The second round of match play in the men’s North and South championship played here today was featured by the most as- tonishing upset in a tournament of upsets, when Johnny Dawson, medal- ist and favored to oppose George Voigt, the defending champion in the final, was eliminated by W. C. Fownes, jr. ¥ and 2, in a great battle during which Dawson was on the defensive all the way. George Voigt, former District of Co- lumbia champion, scored rather easily today and will come together tomor- row with the long-driving Phillips Finlay in the lower bracket of the semifinals. e Harvard star also came in under wraps today. Richard Wilson, the Georgetown University boy, who cre- ated one of the biggest upsets of the tournament when he defeated Eugene Homans, metropolitan champion, in the first round, continued his winning ways in the second round by elimi- nating R. P. Merriman, 5 and 4. Merri- man was the man who upset the bet- ting by ushering Eddie Held to the sicelines in the first round. Wilson Makes Nine Pars, Two Birdies on 14 Holes. Wilson had no difficulty in ending his match with Merriman on the four- teenth green. Of the fourteen holes played, he had nine pars and two Bird- ies, going over par only on three holes. He faces a tough assignment in the third round today when he meets W. C. Fownes. Phillips Finlay played one under 4s for fifteen holes to win his match from J. D. Chapman on the fifteenth green, 5 and 3, by sinking a 15-foot putt for a birdie 2. Voigt had an easy match today when he encountered Charles S. Eaton, Har- vard freshman and junior champion of Massachusetts, to win, 7 and 6. m started out by winning the first hole in 4, when George missed his second shot, They halyed the second hole when Eaton sent his drive out of bounds and George again missed an iron shot. Starting with the third, Voigt won five holes in a row to be- come 5 up at the turn. It seemed as if Eaton just couldp’t keep his ball out of the traps, for he was in a trap on every hole. Several missed putts also cost him holes. * ⸗ Starting on the tenth, they halved it in par 4, but Eaton lost the next two. when he missed a putt on the eleventh and Voigt sank a 10-foot putt on the twelfth. Voigt and Held to Play Exhibition Here Sunday George Voigt and Eddie Held will ap- pear in an exhibition match on Sunday at the Bannockburn golf course, it was announced last night by E. C. Alvord, of the Bannockburn Club. Alvord re- ceived a telegram from Voigt stating that the latter would stop in Washing- ton Sunday, accompanied by Held, as a stop-over on his trip from Pinehurst. It is expected that Harry G. Pitt, middie Atlantic champion, and John C. Shorey, District Junior champion, will play to make up the quartet. The golf committee of the.

Rice Crowding ~ West for Post In the Outtield By FRANK H. YOUNG. : HILE no word to this effect has come from official sources, Washington fans need not be surprised if Outfielder Sam Rice is seen playing regularly When the season starts. This veteran appears to be just as fast as he has been in recent years, has retained his batting eye, and ap- pears to be too good a man to be kept on the bench. Manager Walter John- son insists that he is satisfied with the work of Sam West and Red Barnes, al- though admitting that the hitting of the former has been disappointing so far this spring. Some of the “e ”" on the club believe that they see a defect in West’s batting stance and are working with him in an effort to improve it in the hope of his regaining his form of the waning days of 1928, when he set the league on fire and pulled his seasonal average from around .240 to over the 300 mark. If the experiment proves successful, West likely will continue as center fielder; but if the progress made is not fast, it would be no surprise if Johnson were to suddenly decide to right. Barnes is out temporarily with a slight attack of water on the knee, but he claims he is ready right now and is only kept idle because Trainer Mike Martin wants to play safe and take no chances on the injury getting worse. So far this season Barnes has been fielding exceptionally well and getting his share of hits, so that if Rice pulls a “Joe Judge” and plays regularly after the season starts, after having sat on the bench for practically all of the ex- hibition series, as was the case with the first-sacker last spring, it probably will be at West’s expense. McGraw Wants Nate to Share San Antonio Camp. John J. McGraw, manager of the Giants, is expected to submit a proposi- tion to President Clark Griffith today calling for the Nationals to train at San Antonio next spring. The New Yorkers have just comple a most successful conditioning péri in the Texas city and are so pleased both with weather conditions and the financial returns from exhibition games that they have signed to return there for three more years. McGraw believes that with an American League team also training there a mint of money could be made in contests played throughout the Lone Star State, and he also has a ten-day tour through Mexico in mind. : Secretary Jim Tierney broached the subject to the Nat owner yesterday, more or less feeling out Griffith, and he found the latter in quite a receptive mood. He stated that McGraw was con- sidering inviting the Nats to join him. and an outright proposition probably HURLING IS FEATURE; TATE’S HIT DE ! > shift Barnes to center and use Rice in| j oe yy. a — — ¥ fe — Be xs } Z % Z a? we ys ; 77 & , - * 4 * — 4 a — 7 we # ‘ $~ ; > — ie a ky — a ae * - * * pe * enewic ; * oy ; gi ; See * BE at: ——— J * — Nats Show Fine For — — * in Errorless Debu — — member Ae + th 5 5 5 * % * “ S ; i _ ⸗ r ~ .

Catching Staff to Be Good, Contingent on Bengough. in good shape, the Yankees will have a fair catching staff. With .Benny Bengough’s arm in condition as a re- sult of’ a récent tonsil operation, they will have a good catching staff. As for pitching, the Yankees will have Waite Hoyt, George Pipgras, Herb Pennock, Henry Johnson, Wilcy Moore, Tom Zachahy, Fred Hiemach, Ed Wells and Myles Thomas. It is a good, strong team. Its biggest problem, according to Huggins, will be to keep from the let-down which is natural to a team which has been so long a winner. | _ BOWIE NOTES a ? YHE Benning Handicap, a dash of 6 furlongs for 3-year-olds and up- ward, tops the excellent Friday card at Bowie. Twelve flashy speedsters have been nominated to face the start- er, including Son of John, winner of last year’s inaugural; War Eagle, Prick- ly Heat and Lady Marie. Lady Marie has been burning up the track and may gallop down in front of the classy field. As a companion piece, the Southern Maryland Agricultural’ Association is of- fering the Junior Purse at 5'4 furlongs for 3-year-olds. The McLean Stable’s Preakness candidates, Nymph King and Mayor Walker, will be among the start- ers. Leucite, raciug for the Rancocas Stable, is also a Preakness nominee, and, may show to better advantage than he did the other day, when, coupled with Donnay, he suffered defeat at the hands of Pagan Laddie. The race itself is a very open affair. Jockeys Louis Schaffer and R. Leish- man canceled their mounts yesterday. R. Leonard, who took a bad header off Roodles yesterday when nearing the finish, was much better today, but canceled his mounts. | Elmer Trueman will ship 25 head to Havre de Grace on Sunday. John J. Farrell, jr., is already at the “Graw.” Sergt. Swenke will ship Sunday, to- gether with P. E. Fitzgerald and H. Scott. Voltear and Our Sally Ann have been added to the list of starters in the Prince Georges (spring) Handicap tomorrow, making the total entries now numbering seventeen. Tommy McTaggart, once premier riding ace, attempted a comeback to- day when he had the mount on Sir Leonid in the third race. McTaggart has been training at the old Pimlico oval all winter and looked in the best of condition as the horses paraded to the post for the third number. Matt Brady, who started the J. E. Davis Stupendous in the secondary | feature yesterday will race his string only during the running of the Pimlico meeting. Brady will ship about fifteen head from Benning on the 20th. John F. Schorr, master trainer of the McLean Stable, sent the first shipment of thoroughbreds to the “Graw” today. The remainder of the McLean outfit will leave Sunday for the Harford course. — — — Claims are still numerous at this track. George Alexander took Grey of Dawn out of the first race today, while C. E. Merritt claimed North’ American out of the same heat for $2,000. In the third race, Sir Leonid went to Rex Cooper, Genial to C. R. Fleishman and Red Spider to H. C. Rummage, who de- posited $2,000 in the secretary’s office for each of the thoroughbreds. a Jockey A. Robertson is away out in front as the track’s leading rider. Mrs. L. G. Kaufman’s Twink is at the “Graw” working steadily for the $10,000 Chesapeake Stakes.

CENTRAL NINE BEATEN BY FRESHMEN Maryland Yearlings in 15 to 3 Victory; Score 6 in 4th. NIVERSITY OF MARYLAND FRESHMEN swamped Central, High of Washington, 15 to 3, in a baseball game at College Park halted in the seventh inning by rain yester- day. It was the second win in as many starts for the Old Line yearlings against a Washington high school team. . Maryland gathered fourteen hits while Central was able to glean only four. Both teams used two pitchers. Schleigh with three hits, including a double and two singles, led Mary- land’s attack, while Chalmers, Berger and Wilson also wielded big bats for the winners. Kraut, Maryland pitcher, clouted a homer in the sixth, scoring Wilson ahead of him. Berger Hits Double Over Wall, Giving Freshmen Lead. Maryland took the lead in the first inning on doubles by Schleigh and Chalmers and a single by Cronin, which netted two runs. Central tied the score in the second on Fisher’s single, passes to Stan and Cumberland and Schloss’ one-baser. In the third, Maryland went ahead to stay. Berger doubled over the left field wall, went to third on a ball and scored on Stan’s error. In the fourth inning the Old Liners added six more runs to put the game in the bag. Maryland. A Central.

Dempsey was found in a bungalow atop a downtown hotel and notified of the suit, brought on behalf of the Chi- cago Coliseum Club and B. E. Clements, president. Unsuccessful in stopping the Demp- sey-Tunney scrap by last-minute in- junctions, the $500,000 suit was filed shortly afterward. Clements and the club seek the damages because Dempsey refused to fight Harry Wills, their claim being that he signed a contract in In- diana. PRESS CARDS PRACTICE. The National Press Building Cardi- nals will practice tomorrow on the South Ellipse diamond at 2:30 o’clock in preparation for Sunday’s game with the Indian Head Cardinals at Waldorf, Md. Press Card players will meet at the home of Coach Charles Harrington at 12 o’clock Sunday to make the trip. Coach Harrington has signed Owen, former pitcher of the Bonds Clothiers, and Keenes, a young sandlotter, to bol- ster the team. The Cards have several open dates for May and June and games can be arranged by phoning Harrington at Cleveland 4831. SAN ANTONIO CAMP OFFERED NATIONALS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 13. will be made today., As there are three good diamonds in San Antonio, the two clubs coutd train independently of each other, but a lengthy schedule of games would be arranged. Braxton and Jones to Oppose Giants Here Today. The Nationals and Giants«will meet again at the Clark Griffith Stadium this afternoon and another real battle may be looked for. The National Leaguers have mauled the Capital Citiyans so badly the past three springs that Man- ager Johnson hopes to return and com- pliment this year. With the Nats 3 up and only 3 to go, the worst they can hope for is an even break, but this is not enough, and in the hope of clinch- ing the series this afternoon, Johnson plans to start Garland Braxton and to finish with “Sad Sam” Jones. McGraw intimated last night that he would call on Larry Benton, his best bet of last season. Play will start at 3:30, the time set for all but the opening game to get under way. An example of how hopelessly lost an experienced player may get in the cen- ter of a baseball diamond was given by Pitcher Joe Genewich on the final play of yesterday’s game. All he apparently knew was that a game was being played and that the weather was cold, for he cut off the return peg on Tates hit which scored Judge with the win- ning run in the last half of the ninth and then, to Miake matters worse, showed how well he had kept up with the progress of the game by returning to the rubber and preparing to pitch. Some of his mates finally advised him that the game was over. Griffith Orders Pitcher McCullough To Report by Tuesday. President Clark Griffith yesterday re- ceived a letter from Pitcher Paul Mc- Cullough, who has been expected to join the Nats ever since February 24. The “lost sheep” stated that he has al- most recovered, has beeh working out some, and that he desired to remain at his home at Newcastle, Pa., to continue receiving treatments from his family physician. McCullough was advised that Trainer Mike Martin and the Washington Club physician are capable of treating him and that, if he wants a job here, it would not be a bad idea if he showed up here not later than Tuesday.

WATSON “MAUD” CRUM has issued his annual spring training call for football candi- dates at George ashington Univer- sity, but has found only a few who hé@ve signified their intention of get- ting in some early licks for the 1929 season.

In view of the exceptionally poor sea- son suffered by the Colonials last year, the Buff and Blue coach is looking for any men who appear to have the mak- ings of capable gridironers. Several of the freshmen team are expected to make strong bids for the varsity ext fel, and he is looking for them to come Gavuzzi Leads Bunion Field on 52-Mile Lap Wheeling, W.

Mother has given me her advice, but she asked me to write and see what you had to say. Here is my story: He is married and I complete the-tri- angle. He told me he loved me and I told him that I cared for him. After four months of seeing each other, I find that it has been merely infatua- tion on my part. I have told him this, but still he persists in calling me up and trying to see me. He.is making it quite hard for me, but he says it is because he loves me. I am willing to take half of the blame for the wrong we did by going out to- gether, but somehow I was attracted to him. He says now that he’s found what love really is, he won't give me up. Do you think it would be all right for me to go see his wife, tell her every- thing and ask her to help me? GRATEFUL. Answer—The sympathy game is the usual starting point. The “no one ap- preciates me like you” type of talk. “If you only knew the burden I must bear” and then a heavy sigh. Girls with a combination of foolishness, lack of ex- perience and the desire to mother be- lieve this talk. Under the circumstances the wife is not likely to help you. Your mother can answer the phone and tell the man to go about his own business. Make the triangle a square and put your mother in it. secret of Popularity.

PAVING WORK ADVOCATED Opposition to the proposed 3-cent tax on gasoline, suggested by Repre- sentative Frederick N. Zihlman, of Maryland, to provide funds for de- veloping park properties, was voiced last. night at a meeting of the Wash- ington Chapter, Americaga Association of Engineers, at the Playhouse, 1814 N street northwest. : The meeting adopted a report ex- pressing hope that “a merger of the *wo street car companies will be con- summiated in the near future, and thet legislation to bring this about will be enacted at the special session of Congress, if possible.” Regardless of whether the merger is carried through the engineers opposed any increase in > tares. To prevent an increase the report proposed “if the merger is not effected it is strongly urged that the law re- quiring a 4 per cent gross earning tax be so amended that an adjustment of the taxes can be made to prevent nv ine” -s: im car fare.” A report also was adopted urging that “sufficient funds be made available to promptly and properly repair” the numerous cuts made in the street pave- ments in Washington “in order that traffic will not be inconvenienced any longer than possible, and that the pave- ment repaired shall be as good and as strong as the original pavement.” . “Tt is believed,” said the report, “that the practice of dumping filling into trenches and not paving the opening for weeks and even months, in some cases, should cease, and that dn ade- quate force of men should be promptly. thus keeping pavements in as smooth condition for automobile tires as pos- John L.

PRATT PAY RAISE URGED Legislation designed to give Washing- ton the finest police force in the coun- try will be recommended during the ex- tra session of Congress, Representative Gibson, of Vermont, announced upon his arrival here yesterday. The legislation, he said, would . be based largely on the recommendations of the commissioners and the police of- ficials themselves. He said he plans 10 confer with these in the near future. Gibson said that eo far he has. not made up his mind just what ought to be done to improve the force, but he felt that he and the local officials would be able to work out a program that would be highly beneficial. ; The Commissioners are expected to recommend, among other things, that the pay of Maj. Henry G. Pratt, the su- perintendent, be substantially increased and that the pay of the other officials and members of the force also be in- creased. Pratt’s pay of $5,200 a year is consid- erably below what is paid to police chiefs in other large cities. It also is less than is paid to the other depart- ment heads of the local government. Representative Gibson, who is chair- man of the subcommittee that has been investigating the municipal yovern- ment, said yesterday that he had not completed his report on the investiga- tion of the Police Department Tne document must be submitted to the House District committee by July L He was much interested in the re- tirement of Capt. Guy E. Burlingame and of Maj. Edwin B. Hesse, but he re- fused to comment. He did say, however, that these two events would cause him to revise what he had planned to say in his report about the Blalock-Burlingame affair and about the “ability and ef- ficiency” of Maj. Hesse. Autoist Fined $300 For Blocking Police John E. Histon Is Charged With Preventing Capture of Rum Car.
