Navy Tugboat,60 Aboard, Blowrz Aground by Storm New York, May 3 (A.P.).—A gale hat swept the North Atlantic seacoast today carried the Navy tug Iuka, with 60 men aboard, into the mud fiats near Fort Lafayette, Brooklyr. A_ police launch was standing by. The vessel went aground as a heavy storm was lettin_ up over the harbor. The storm continued along the coast, however, and the wind was of whole gale force at sea. The tug and her scow later were pulled off the mud fate by another Navy tug. They were undam- aged.

Coir, taken to a hospital, was unable to give an explanation of what caused the plane to fall. He was at the con- was based upon statutes and could be changed only by Congress, found upon investigating the subject later that there was no statute bearing upon it, but that it had been followed for years. He said the custom was based on inter- national practice and Treasury Depart- ment decisions. The last of these decisions, and that upon which the present customs regu- lations are based, was issued October 4, 1920, and provided that the privilege of free entry should be extended to the baggage and other effects of foreign am- bassadors, ministers, chatge d'affaires, secretaries, naval, military and other at- taches at embassies and legations, high commissioners and consular officers and to American officials of like grade. It also included in the scope cf the privilege prominent foreign visitors who might. be designated by the State De- partment. The order provided that ac- credited diplomats or American diplo- mats needed only to show their creden- tials to secure the privileged status. Preedom of the port has consisted in passing all the baggage of the person receiving the privilege without exam- ination, but a study of the regulations yesterday by the Treasury showed that the old orders regarding the subjecr provided only that it relieved the per- son of paying duties and did not pro- vide that their baggage should not oe examined. In relation to extending the privilege to members of Congress, Lowman said it could be done only when senators or ship, succeeds the late Joseph H. De Frees, of Chicago. Final Speakers. Cc. F. Kettering, of Detroit, Mich., vice president of General Motors Cor- poration, in an address on “The Im- pact of Science on Business,” and John H. Pahey, publisher of the Worcester (Mass.)

Frederick, Md., May 3-—With two deat and six injured, Frederick County awoke today to take toll of the dam- age wrought in the furious few minutes of irresistible wind and terrific rain which swept through the county last night. Harmony Grove, a few miles from here, was hardest hit. The home of Mr. and Mrs. John J. Shanks was swept clear of its foundations, with not a stick left on the spot where the two- story frame dwelling had been. Mrs. Shanks was killed instantly and Mr. Shanks died from his injuries this morning in the Frederick City Hos- pital. Both were tossed clear of the wreckage and into a wheat field 150 feet away. Richfield, an historic mansion house where the late Admiral Winfield Scott Schley was born, was cut almost ex- actly in half, one portion left standing and the other reduced to a mass of brick and lumber. Mr. and Mrs, John W. Pout, (ts occupants, are in the hos- pital here recovering from severe cuts and shock, The barn on the Richfield estate, yanked from its foundation, has totally disappeared. Many think it was thrown bodily into the Monocacy River, which flows a few hundred yards away. Mr. and Mrs. Martin L. Wathper left the hospital today after treatment for cuts suffered in the storm. Miss Dor- othy Doll was treated at her home near Frederick, Irving Bell, of Walkersville, was still in the hospital with a broken leg, crushed when the chimney of her home caved in. The cloudburst which accompanied the wind in this territory left many of the roads around Frederick inun- Gated. Frederick was without electric lights for more than four hours after the storm. Brunswick suffered likewise and in addition ite streets were under ebout 18 inches of water. The Potomac River was high and seemed to be rising. Many farmers liv- ing near its banks were moving their ne to higher land in anticipa- tion of e high water which they fear will follow. — —— — — — J J “RN oe!

Clifton Forge, Va., May 3.—The upper end of Alleghany County and the lower end of Bath County along the Cow Pas- ture River were visited late yesterday by the most violent windstorm ever re- corded in this part of the State. Huge treés were uprooted or snapped and twisted, houses were demolished, barns blown away, orchards destroyed and in one case a dwelling wrecked so com- pletely that no trace of it can be seen. A barn in which a woman was milk- ing was lifted up and carried away, al- though neither the woman nor the cow was injured. About a dozen -persons were hurt. Two women were severely cut and bruised. A church was almost complete~- ly destroyed, while another, Windy Cove Church, the oldest in Bath County, was damaged, but not seriously. The path of the windstorm was about 200 yards wide, extending a distance of about 18 miles. Ten dwellings and the same number of barns were destroyed. The property loss was about $75,000. Telephone communication was dis- rupted. Mexican Hurricane Claims American Small Craft in the Harbor of Vera Cruz Are Be- lieved Lost. Mexico City, May 3 (A.P.).—A hurri- cane swept the gulf coast of Mexico last night, wrecking buildings and plantations and leaving a ruin from Tampico south to Vera Cruz. One American, Victor Carlie, member of the crew of the American steamer San Jacinto, at Tampico, was killed. The wind exceeded a velocity of 70 miles an hour during most of the night at Vera Cruz. It was feared a number of small craft in the harbor there had come to grief. : At Tampico the steamer San Jacinto was torn from its. ooring in the Pan- uco River and collided with another sii, Carlie, a member of the crew, wat knocked overboard and was drowned. Neither of the two ships was believed seriously damaged. Beach Pavilions Wrecked in Storm Other Amusement Features Damaged at Tolchester; Pier Inundated. Special to The Washington Post. Chestertown, Md., May 3.—Heavy winds early this morning wrought havoc along the Chesapeake Bay front and river shore of Kent County. At Tol- chester Beach large trees were uprooted and the public park was strewn with wreckage of amusement paviliong and branches of trees. The property of H. G. Stine, of Georgetown, Md., owner of a miniature reilroad and other amusement features at Tolchester, was badly damaged, ac- cording to Frank Wheatley, manager for the Tolchester company. The steamboat wharf is covered with water today. At Rock Hall and along the Chester River many small boats were washed away. Cellars of residences of this town bordering the river are flooded and many fishermen’s nets along the river have been destroyed.

Tornado in Virginia Wrecks Buildings Church and Farmhouses Are Demolished; River Rises in Loudoun County. Special to The Washington Post. Purcellville, Va., May 3-——A tornado struck the northern part of Loudoun County late last night and completely demolished everything in its path. It started about a mile from Hamilton, and, going in a northerly direction, devastated everything in an area % mile wide and 2 miles long. The house and barn of Presley Ashe and wife, colored, were completely wrecked. Ashe was pinned beneath a kitchen stove and his wife extricated herself from the wreckage and went for aid.

STUDENT HELD IN TORCH DEATH Eugene Bussey Arrested in New York Hotel as Witness Against Slayer. SEIZED AFTER INTERVIEW New York, May 3 (N.Y.W.N.5.).— Eugene Bussey, Johns Hopkins Univers- ity student, was arrested at the Hotel Biltmore tonight and taken to White Plains, where he was locked up in the Westchester County jail as a material witness against Earl F. Peacox, who confessed murdering his young wife and setting fire to her body on a lonely road in Westchester last week. The arrest was made by Deputy Sher- iff Prank Cherico, of Sheriff Thomas Underhill’s staff in White Plains, on a warrant issued by Supreme Court Justice Joseph Morschauser. District Attorney Coyne applied for the warrant after Bussey had made some state- ments printed in an afternoon news- paper. Mr, Coyne had talked to the student Thursday night, stating after the con- versation that he “will not question Bussey further unless the affair takes on a different complexion.” Bussey’s statement led Mr. Coyne to believe that he possesses information that would strengthen the case of a charge of first Cegree murder against Peacox, who so far has maintained there was no pre- meditation in the killing of his young wife. Bussey is being held without bail and will be questioned tomorrow morn- ng. White Plains, N.Y., May 3 (N.Y.W.NS.). Additional evidence, indicating that Earl F. Peacox plotted the murder of his gay young wife, is in the hands of District Attorney Coyne, it was learned today. Mr. Coyne would not disclose the nature of this evidence, but assert- ed that it was sufficient to make out a strong case of first-degree murder against the natty young radio mecha- nicilan who has confessed he floored his wife with a pistol butt, strangled and robbed her, and five days later burned her body in a woods near Scarsdale. The district attorney said that Pea- cox had sprained his right thumb choking his wife in his little apart- ment at No. 32 Edson avenue, Mount Vernon, although he would not com- ment on his reasons for attaching im- portance to this. Legal authorities pointed out that it would indicate an attack of sufficient persistence and vio- lence to preclude pure self-defense as a motive. Peacox was taken to the office of the district attorney this afternoon and re- mained closeted with Mr. Coyne and members of his staff for more than two hours. Mr. Coyne made it clear that he ex- pected to be able to prove that Peacox was intensely jealous of his attractive young wife and that the motive of jealousy drove him to kill her. The district attorney denied he knew any particular person of whom Peacox might have been jealous and said that the prisoner had named no guch man Lindbergh to Lose Wager Of $1,500 When He Marries Friend Says Colonel Will Pay Bet He Made With Fellow Flier Years Ago—Wedding to Miss Morrow to Take Place in Paris, It Is Reported. Chicago, May 3 (N.Y.W.NS.).—It ap- pears to be settled that Phil Love, an old fiying pal of Col. Lindbergh, will collect $1,500 because the colonel is first to marry. While fiying the Chicago-St. Louis air mail two and a half years ago, the two filers lived in the same home in Maywood. They were targets for sen- timental girls and it looked as if one or the other would fall into matrimony. Love wagered $1,500 that Lindbergh would marry first. Love later entered the employ of the Robertson Air Lines in St. Louis and re- cently claimed the money. | Lieut. Donald Keyhoe, a friend of Col. Lind- bergh, announced that the colonel would pay the bet when he married Miss Anne Morrow. New York, May 3 (N.Y.W.NS.).— Anne Morrow and her fiance, Col. Charlies A. » may Be married in the same city to which thei Bay late Ambassador Herrick introduced a shy young American aviator two years ago. It was learned today that Miss Mor- row and Col. Lindbergh are planning to go to Paris for the June wedding, a romantic courtesy to the nation which doffed its bonnet to “Lucky Lindy” as the Spirit of St. Louis landed on Le Bourget Field, May 21, 1927. A voice answering the telephone at the Morrow home at Englewood, where half of the local constabulary are guarding the privacy of Lindbergh and his bethrothed, told a reporter tonight that nothing could be said about the report of the Paris wedding. And it was not stated whether the original report that the wedding would take place at the Morrow summer home at North Haven, Maine, the rambling farn: house set amid the spruce and fir trees of the 80-acre farm on the west shore of Vinal Haven, at the entrance to Penobscot » holds true, — — —— Wife Was Matron of Honor at His Marriage to Music Pupil. HIS NEW BRIDE WEEPS Riverhead, Long Island, May 3 (U-P.). Warden Lewes, of Sing Sing, today was awarded a two-year-and-five-month to four-year-and-ten-month contract for caring for Herbert Leigh-Manuel, the delicate former organist of a West Sayville Church, who bigamously mar- ried one of his 19-year-old music pu- pills last December to stave off a nerv- ous breakdown. “I wish I could give him life,” ssid County Judge H. Furmans, peering down from the bench at Herbert's luxurious mags of hair, which has been compared to a black chrysanthemum.” There seemed to be no doubt that the judge was one of those persons who would never understand Herbert. His wife does, though. It was her pampering of the artistic flame that roars throug which put her last Decem honor at his marriage to the trem- blingly happy Miss Martha Van Wyen in the Marble Collegiate Church in Manhattan. Family Fails to Understand. This occurrence set a new high mark in. New York State for being nice to husbands, but raised cane in the Van Wyen family. They didn’t understand Herbert, either, and when the wedding party showed up for the parental bless~ ing Herbert’s black chrysanthemum nar- rowly escaped being nailed to his new father-in-law’s front door.

His work would benefit. But just before Valentine Day Mrs. Leigh-Manuel noticed that Herbert’s boiling point seemed to be getting low again. She smoothed his hair and ar- ranged his pillows and listened to him and did everything she could think of. It was no use. Then a telephone call brought word that Herbert was in jail again. He had been found bound and gagged on the lawn of the Van Wyen home. He had tried to call on Martha and met two of her brothers, John and Ted, and they had failed to understand him. Nursing Her Fourth Baby. Mrs. Leigh-Manuel was in a hospital at the moment, nursing her fourth baby. which had just arrived, and so she was unable immediately to raise the addi- tional — — demanded by the Commonwealth. She came into court with Herbert to- day knowing that he had been arvised to plead guilty and ask for mercy. With a tremulous smile she searched the face of the judge. He might be one of those who would understand Her- bert. Then she heard the terrible words and knew she was mistaken. Herbert, who turner out to have a stronger nervous system than anybody thought, smiled, but Mrs. Leigh-Manuel’s eyes filled with tears. She was picturing Herbert's plight if Warden Lawes doesn’t understand him either. Fall Trial Is Reset For Oct. 7 by Court Postponement Is Result of. Illness of Pomerene, U. S. Counsel. Formal postponement of the trial of Albert B. Fall, former Secretary of In- | pe terior, on a charge of bribery was made yesterday by Justice William Hitz tn the District Supreme Court until Oc- tober 7. The trial was scheduled to start on Monday. The postponement was requested by United States Attorney Leo A. Rover because of the illness of Atlee Pome- rene, one of the Government’s special oll prosecutors.

ON MELLON STATUS) 5 sent Likely to Be Handed Several Conflicting Re- ports Vote Today. STOCK OWNERSHIP ISSUE (Associated Press.) Submission to the Senate of several conflicting reports by the judiciary committee on the right of Secretary Mellon to hold office appeared likely last night, with a vote on this much- discussed proposition in sight for to- da Sufficient votes were claimed for de- feat of the report of Chairman Norris, declaring that Mr. Mellon, as a stock- holder, is violating the statute for- bidding the Secretary of the Treasury to be interested in carrying on trade or commerce. The committee seemed widely divided on what construction to place on this 100-year-old statute. No decision was reached yesterday after two more hours of discussion on a course of procedure for the committee; but the prospect of a vote today on a report made it —** likely that no open investiga- of Mr. Mellon and his relations to the companies in which he is a stock- holder would be ordered. Friends of the Secretary, in answer- ing the report of Chairman Norris, have put before the committee commu- nications from five former Secretaries of the Treasury stating that they held corporate stock while serving. These Secretaries were Leslie M. Shaw and George B. Cortelyou, in the Cabinet of President Roosevelt; Frank- lin MacVeagh, in the Taft Cabinet, and William G. McAdoo and David Houston, in the Wilson Cabinet. Senator Norris, however, counters this argument with a recital of the action of President Grant in withdrawing the nomination of James A. Stewart as Sec- .retary of the Treasury after Congress had refused to modify the statute re- garding that office.

American business has repeatedly declared its aversion to armed conflict and to profit making influenced by the misfortunes of war, “We pledge our unqualified support to our President and our Government in every effort toward the suppression of war as an instrument of national policy.” In recognition of the phenomenal development of aviation, the chamber declared that “State Legislatures are urged to have interstate rather than merely intrastate service in mind for their citizens when drafting aeronauti- cal legislation and member organiza- tions are urged to support this prin- ciple.” “The establishment of alrports is es- sential to the proper expansion of air transportation,” the resolution con- cluded. “Appropriate legislation should be enacted to enable the State munici- palities and counties to appropriate funds and acquire lands for the prac- tical development of aeronautics through the establishment of airports and the encouragement of the use of aircraft.” The chamber “has confidence in the Federal Reserve System and its adapta- bility to new conditions, and holds that the system is entitled to the utmost cooperation,” the convention voted in maintaining that “basic industries, es- pecially the smaller units of manufac- ture, distribution and agriculture, should not be burdened with unusually high interest rates resulting from se- curity excesses,” Urge National Origins Repeal. Recommendation was made for re- |} peal of the national origins provision of the immigration law of 1924, whica in. | Ctiginally was intended to replace on July 1, 1927, the quota limit system based on the 1890 census, together with recommendation for continu- ance of the quota limit system now in operation, based upon 2 per cent of foreign-born living here in 1890. Three adopted resolutions on taxa- tion placed the organization on rec- ora as favoring “reduction of the or- te tax rate to a more equitable fevel;” as commending efforts of prompt settlement of liability for Fed- eral taxes and urging that “long-de- layed cases now be rapidly disposed of and that there be prompt final deter- mination of tax Hability in the fu- ture,” and as urging adoption by all States of statutes for reciprocity in tax exemption of intangible person- alty of nonresident decedents, or en- tire exemption for such property.

Other resolutions favored reduction ot passport fees, improvement in trans- pacific press facilities, congressional ap- propriation for further industrial dis- tribution studies by the Department of Commerce, further Federal cooperation on mineral] and forestry problems, in- creased Federal highway appropriations, prompt action by Congress on Presi- dent Hoover’s recommendation that au- thority be given him to name highway advisers to Latin-American republics, uniformity of traffic rules, conserva- tion of life and health, reduction of fire waste through “uniform legislation against the crime of arson in all of its forms,” and a chamber committee to study the daylight-saving plan. Directors Get Other Resolutions. Nineteen other resolutions submitted were referred to the board of directors for detailed study. They included cal- endar reform, Great Lakes-St. Lawrence waterway. inter-American highway, Muscle Shoals, Philippine immigration, postal service, reforestation of national forests among other subjects. Mr. Kettering, as principal speaker at the closing session, briefly discussed research as entering all phases of busi- ness. “The modern business man is a suc- cess or failure largely depending on how much he applies science in his business,” Mr. Kettering asserted. “Most people regard anything which they do not understand clearly as ‘sci- entific.” In reality, the main thing about science or scientific research is simply getting the facts. “Many consider science only as part of engineering, Wut the successful mod- ern business man finds that scientific study must be given to all phases of business—finance, engineering, manu- facturing, purchaing, sales, service and advertising. “Business must change. New people born into the world force new things. We must change in the way the con- sumer demands. We must prepare to change intelligently to meet future de- mands. We must make the changes smoothly, with little loss to the com- munity or to the individual. But change we must inevitably. U. 8.

INCREASE WOULD FOLLOW Paris, May 3 (U.P.).—The so-called “Young compromise” appeared tonight as the most likely hope of saving the reparations experts’ conference from complete failure, but conflicting offi- present negotia- tions permitted only a picture of dis- agreement on all sides. The conference was hanging in the balance, according to the most au- thoritative sources here, while the com- promise said to have been offered by Chairman Owen D. Young was consid- ered. None of the delegates would admit that Young had offered a definite pro- posal which the allied nations and Germany might accept to break the present deadlock on the amount which Germany shall pay annually. It was known, however, that Young was mak- ing every effort to bring the dele- gates to an agreement and the dis- cussions recently have centered on what is tantamount to a “peace-making” proposal by the head of the unofficial United States delegaiion. Would Meet German Demands. Most reliable reports of the terms say that the proposal would meet the German demands in the first year of operation of the plan. That would be, according to unofficial sources, some- thing less than $400,000,000 a year. After the first year the annuities would be increased by about $5,950,000 each year until the average payments are reached, it was said. These average yearly payments would be about $476.- 000,000, according to reliable sources. The same sources asserted that the plan called for a schedule of payments over a period of approximately 40 years. The ailies previously had demanded 58 years and the Germans specified 37 years. Plan Offered Weeks Ago. Young, it was understood, offered this plan some weeks ago when it was obvious that the Germans and allies were not likely to agree, but only at the final stages of the conference, when the disagreement became certain, did he ask both the Germans and the creditor nations to make an effort to reach a common figure, As a result of the negotiations this week the American delegation was somewhat more optimistic, while the Germans were still buried in a cloud of pessimism. The French made matters still more uncertain by declaring they would not reduce their claims to less than a 58- year schedule, in which the Belgians and Italians supported them. It appeared tonight that efforts would be continued until Monday in hope of reaching an agreement. HOOVER'S HANDS. OFF IN GENEVA DEADLOCK Gibson Instructed Only to Enter Discussions of Concern to U. S. WILL IGNORE LAND ARMS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. statements on land disarmament in a new light. President Hoover is not in a posi- tion where he can comment publicly on developments at Geneva at this time, but there is ample authority for the above statements, and information yesterday became available to serve as a background for clarification of the administration’s position., This in- formation will prove surprising but ex- tremely important to the various for- eign offices and to the representatives of the League of Nations at Geneva, who have apparently misinterpreted and misunderstood Ambassador Gib- son's recent announcement respecting land armaments. Ambassador Gibson's statement has been interpreted generally as an Ameri- can concession whereby the United States decides with Great Britain, France and the other military powers favoring the exclusion of trained re- serves from limitation. This exclusion of trained reserves, of course, means that there will be no real limitation of reserves and consequently no real limitation on land aon But the expressions of gratification which have come from Geneva and France over the “Gibson concession” and the “deep emotion” voiced by French statesmen over the Gibson statement now loom as decidedly pre- meture. President Hoover does not understand that Mr. Gibson has made any such concession as the foreign statesmen attribute to him. All that Mr. Gibson has done with the author- ity of the President is to explain to the Geneva conference that America has no opinion to express one way or the other on the question of land armaments and desires to remain neu- tral and aloof from all discussions per- taining to that subject, which is viewed by the United States as solely a matter of European concern. There can be no reduction of land armies in Europe which will be of in- terest to the United States, it was au- thoritatively explained. Therefore the United States wishes to express no opinion directly or indirectly about this subject and the Gibson statement means simply that America wishes to — from expressing any opinion at all. This means that so far as President Hoover is concerned there has been no abandonment of any previous position, no concession for or against France or other powers and no intention to be drawn into the maelstrom of European controversies over this or any other subject of exclusive interest to the powers of Europe Particular importance will be given to the news that no future statements at Geneva are to be interpreted as rep- resenting American participation in matters that concern Europe and not the United States. If foreign states- men for reasons of their own wish to read into Gibson’s statements hidden meanings favorable to their own in- terests they can not be prevented from doing so but they will henceforth not overlook the authoritative. warning from Washington. The two sentences of Ambassador Gibson’s speech which were interpreted by the foreign statesmen as represent- ing a concession and a yielding to the Anglo-French majority view on land armaments were the following: “Therefore, if we are to reach an agreement—if we are to be able to join in a common draft—it will be neces- sary for concessions to be made not only on the part of one but on the part of every delegation here present. Government, as a practical matter, is disposed to defer to the ‘views of the majority of those countries whose land forces constitute their chief military interest and in the draft convention before us to accept their ideas in the matter of trained reserves.” This phraseology is from the official copy of Gibson’s speech made public by Secretary Stimson. The Associated Press of April 27 said: “Lord Cushen- dun then took the floor and announced that Great Britain had decided to take the same attitude as the United States on trained reserves, &c.” On April 29 the Associated Press gave the French and German reaction in the following words: “The French newspapers have smiled with approval at American recognition of their claim of noninclusion of trained reserves as army effectives. Some of the press, however, has been hard put to conceal its surprise.” The dispatch from Berlin on the same date stated: “Great Britain’s support of the American attitude on trained reserves undeniably has increased German bit- terness on the trend of the Geneva dsarmament parley,” &c. On May 1 the Associated Press from Geneva stated: “It was pointed out that England and America had in making certain land-force concessions placed them- selves in position to lead in a measure, too, in that phase of disarmament in which they are not so much in- terested.” All of the interpretations of Ambas- sador Gibson’s speech served to in- crease anxiety in senatorial circles be- cause of the clear implication that America was acting as arbiter in a matter of distinctly European concern. But puzzled senators who have been ‘awaiting some authoritative explana- tion now have in this dispatch the key to the mystery which is that the United States is not indorsing any such policy as the foreign statesmen are at- tributing to Ambassador Gibson and President Hoover has no intention of sanctioning any such American policy. ARMS PARLEY SEEKS ADOPTION OF PUBLICITY POLICY ON COSTS CONTINUED FROM PAGE l. Greece, introduced it as a last resort. Maxim Litvinoff insisted that general publicity was already the keynote of the draft treaty and that it was use- less to apply it concretely to land ar- maments. He argued that it would be treating the public more fairly to admit frankly inability to reach agreement on limita- tions. The chairman withdrew his res- olution, but many delegations, includ- ing the American, decided tonight to revive it. It will be submitted tomor- row under belief that the-.problem of limitation has been found temporarily unsolvable. With the expected decision to ad- journ the question of naval reductions and inaugurate direct conversations among fhe five big naval powers, to- day’s discord on limitation of war ma- terials greatly reduced the scope of work of the present session. It is likely that adjournment: will be taken earlier than anticipated and another effort made later in the year to achieve more constructive results. It was believed agreement among the na- val nations would give new life to a preliminary conference, and the general opinion was that new life was badly needed. There was great speculation tonight whether the French will renounce at the present session their cherished plan of international control of armaments. This undoubtedly would be a great con- cession calculated to accelerate har- mony. Many countries of Europe, in- cluding Soviet Russia. agree with France that the nations must be ready to abandon sovereignty enough to per- mit an international commission to in- quire whether signatories are living up to treaty stipulations. The control idea, however, is repug- nant both to the United States and Great Britain. Its abandonment by the French would be regarded as an indi- cation that Europe was trying to meet America half way in the matter of con- cessions. Hoover Will Be Invited To Memorial Unveiling Raleigh, N. C., May 3 (A.P.).—Presi- dent Hoover will be invited to attend the unveiling July 3 of the North Caro- lina Gettysburg Memorial on the fa- mous battlefield of that name. This was annourced today by members of the Gettysburg Memorial Commission, I am able to declare that the American MANN GROUP SMILES AFTER HOOVER Vall Official Explanation Evades Issue, but Georgia Men Seem Satisfied. COMPROMISE IS LIKELY By CARLISLE BARGERON. The “man who knew Hoover”’—or rather the men—down in Georgia dur- ing the campaign breathed easier yes- terday after the President took a hand in the patronage Controversy with Post- master General Brown and Horace A. Mann. These men, H. G. Hastings, Barry Wright and Maj. R. J. Guinn, repre- senting the Mann faction, went to the President in protest against Brown's appointment of another committee to handle patronage in their State. They were with the President for 40 minutes. Indications are that the President gave them no more than 4n assurance that everything would be worked out satisfactorily and only this on condi- tion that they keep out of the newspa- pers in order to avoid such headiii es as “President Sites With Brown” or ident Sides With Mann.” And his they tried valiantly to do. The only com- ment they would make is that they had had a “very pleasurable and satis- factory conference.” Satisfaction Obvious. It was obvious that the conference had been satisfactory. They radiated an optimism that was not their mood by far after talking with the Postmaster Genera] Thursday. At the White House the official ex- planation of their visit was that they called to pay their respects. It was au- thoritatively stated, had been told that they could not broach the patronage matter with the President. This was entirely, in the hands of the Postmaster General. But the Georgians. in some quaint way must have devised some means of broaching the question and this length- ened the time it took to pay their 4 spects to 40 minutes, Compromise Looms. It is not improbable that Mr. Hoo- ver’s-solution will be a combination of the Brown and Mann committees, There is reason to believe that Brown himself would have proposed such @ solution Thursday had he not just fin- ished reading a newspaper re that Mann had /bested him when the com- mittee called. The difficulty seems to have been caused by the fact that although Mann is still functioning in Southern patron- age matters there is not much, if any, | team work between him and Brown. Mann’s committee called for nine members with Hastings as chairman. Brown set up a committee of eight with Lindsay Hopkins, Atlanta, million- aire, as chairman, seems that several weeks ago, Josiah T. Rose, collector of internal revenue at Atlanta, long associated with the Ben Davis crowd which Mr. Hoover seeks to dethrone, came up here and gave Brown a pretty convincing ar- gument that Mann’s hand should be kept out of the Georgia arrangement. Davis Still Stirs Trouble. Davis, colored newspaper publisher, was raising cain and still is. He has arranged for a meeting of colored newspaper publishers in Wisconsin May 15, at which the subject of the “Re- publicans turning their backs upon the negroes” is to be the principal dis- cussion. Rose’s argument was that there Was no need to agitate the colored voters. It would be all right to appoint,a ~ ronage committee of upstanding w people, but keep Mann’s hand out of it, because Mann was considered as being in favor of dissociating the party entirely from the negroes in the Scuth. It is Mann’s conviction and that of others who know anything of Southern conditions that the Repub- lican party can not be built up in the’ South unless it gets away from the colored voters. Davis would be appeased by a com- mittee appointed by Brown, Rose ar- gued, because the negroes had confi- dence in him. Having been a practi- cal politician in Ohio, where the ne- gro vote is quite important, there is reason to believe that Brown 4aw much merit in Rose’s argument. Adopts Rose’s Suggestion. At any rate, he wrote letters to sev- eral Georgians asking them to serve on his committee. In some quarters there is the belief that Rose furnished the list of names. Hastings himself was invited to serve on the commit- tee, but he declined. He had been appointed chairman of the Mann com- mittee and concluded he would throw his lot with Mann. . Four of the men on Brown’s commit were, however, also on the Mann committee. neral is said, in fact, not to have h any knowledge The Postmaster of a Mann committee,\a fact which be bitterly complains er, now. That he invited, altogether, e Mann men to serve on his committe@ would seem to bear the Postmaster General out iri this regard. On the other hand, those who keep closely informed on Georgia politics say that as a matter of fact if Brown's committee prevails the situation will be right back under Ben Davis’ control. Hopkins, the chairman named by Brown, spends about half his time in New York. The belief is that he would be a rubber stamp for Rose. Rose is vice chairman of Davis’ organization. Mann Showed Strength. Mann would seem to have the upper hand in the controversy, too in that Hastings was indisputably the Repub- lican manager in Georgia during the campaign, and Barry Wright, who ac- companied him yesterday, was the Hoo- vercrat manager. They tromped all over the State telling people that they “knew Hoover;” that the people could take thelr word that he was just as good a Democrat as he was a Repub- lican. As a result there were thousands of Crackers who concluded there might be something to that and voted for him.

— ADVERTISEMENT — ee ee + ee WASHINGTON POST: SATURDAY. MAY £, 1929. ADVERTISEMENT ParesweNt Hooyer’s appreEss on law enforcement at the Associated Press luncheon in New York was w shot in the air—a blank cartridge dis- charged against a blank wall. Everybody, knows that the laws ought to be enforced. Everybody knows that the President ought to enforce the laws as far as comes within the obli- ration of his office. Everybody knows that the laws ought to be re- spected; just as everybody knows that women ought to be respected, and that women are re- spected by, every, decent man. But occasionally, there is a woman who Is not respected, who is not respectable, who does not respect herself, and whom no one in his heart can respect, no matter what outward observance of respect he may, render. ‘And so, occasionally, there are laws which cannot be respected no matter how they are ob- served by good citizens. ‘And —* * lawmakers who nee be * spected—such, for instance, as gentlemen who impose dry laws upon the land and carry whiskey, flasks in their hip pockets. ak a REsPECT FOR LAW is a good thing when the laws and lawmakers are worthy, of respect. But if the ‘American. people had had respect for all laws, good or bad, there would have been no Boston Tea Party to protest against the inva- sion of the rights and liberties of our people; no Declaration of Independence to declare liberty and | ity, as the inalienable rights of man; no United States of America to establish liberty and equality, as the foundation stones of republican ent; and in that sad case, no President oover, but only, a certain Herbert Hoover, emi- nent engineer, and a loyal and law-respecting subject of His Majesty King George V. Of course, there should be for law in the abstract, but first there should be laws which deserve respect. : It is better to respect the fundamental Ameri- can principles of liberty, equality and justice than it 1s to laws which infringe upon these inalienable rights of man. Of course, there should be respect for the law- makers; but how can lawmakers be respected who first take a drink and then pass a law imposing five years penal servitude and $10,000 fine upon any citizen who takes a drink, and then go back and take another drink out of a bottle of whiskey which they, have smuggled through the customs under their privilege as Congressmen? Of course, law-enforcement machinery should be respected; but how can it be respected when the head of the machine tells the law-enforce- ment officers that the recent liquor law must not ‘be enforced against all the community, but only against part of the community—must not be en- forced in all cases, but only.in some cases—and that the discretion for its enforcement lies in the hands of the law-enforcing officers? How wide open this decision leaves the door to blackmail and bribery and corruption, when corruption is already rotting the social and politi- cal fabric of the NATION! How this decision shatters the foundation stones of the REPUBLIC! ‘The cornerstone of liberty has already been reduced to dust. And now another cornerstone—Equality be- fore the Law—is crumbling before our eyes. President Hoover says in the course of his speech at the Associated Press luncheon: _ “We have reason to pride ourselves on our insti- tutions and the high moral instincts of the great majority of, our people.” in the Kansas City Star, April 25, 1929 Then later on the President complains of— “The possibility that respect for law as law 1s fading from the sensibilities of our people.” e . . THERE IS NOTHING THE MATTER WITH THE INSTITU- TIONS WE HAVE—Or, rather, used to have. They embody the basic —— of liberty,/ —— and equity upon which rest the peace an ness of mankind. We “pride ourselves upon our institutions,” as the President truly says. There is nothing the matter with them if we can only preserve them. There is nothing the matter with our people. They are a great people and a good people, with “high moral instincts,” as President Hoover de- scribes them. If, therefore, there is, as President Hoover fears, “the possibility that respect for law as law is fading from the sensibilities of our people, then there must inevitably be something the mat- ter with the law. If there is no sufficient respect for law when our institutions are sound and our le are d, then the inescapable conclusion 1s that our ws must be bad. ) If there is “the possibility that respect for law as law is fading from the sensibilities” of our highly moral people, then it must be that the laws, or a considerable portion of them, are un- worthy of respect by a highly moral people. ‘That is the unavoidable conclusion, and that conclusion makes the character of our laws the crucial question for the American people to con- sider. e o ® - Presment Hoover’s SPEECH is a shot in the air— a blank cartridge fired at a blank target—because it avoids the crucial question of the cause of law infraction and concerns itself only with the su- perficials of Jaw enforcement and of penalties for ~ law infraction. President Hoover forgets the old adage that “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure,’ and that if an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, AN OUNCE OF PREVENTION IS WORTH TEN POUNDS OF PENALTIES WHICH DO NOT CURE. President Hoover says: “We have two immediate problems before us in government, to investigate our existing agencies of enforcement and to reorganize our system of enforcement.” He overlooks entirely the crucial question of reforming our LAws and returning in our law construction and law enforcement to the funda- mental American principles of liberty, equality and essential equity. Surely, there is something the matter with the law when the lawmakers themselves break it as soon as it is made. Surely, there is something the matter with the law when the law enforcement officers may decide in their discretion to whom it shall apply. Surely, there is something the matter with the law when a Cossack crew of enforcement officers violate all popular rights and liberties and break into a man’s house on a warrant obtained on per- jured testimony, and beat him into insensibility, and shoot his wife to death as she sits at a tele- phone trying to get help for her husband. . * ° PRESIDENT Hoover comp ains of the small per- centage of conviction of criminals under existing laws, and asks for severer penalties, apparently unconscious of the well-known fact that severe penalties, out of harmony with the sentiment of a community, always result in fewer convictions and greater encouragement of crime; because no criminal is deterred by a law if he is not afraid of conviction under the law. appl- President Hoover recognizes “the vast sums that are poured into the hands of the criminal classes by the patronage of illicit liquor by other- wise responsible citizens.” , But he does not seem to realize that these vast . sums have financed the underworld, and are chief- ly to blame for the wide extension of crime and the effective organization of the criminal classes in all lines of criminal endeavor. How great that extension of crime and that organization of criminal classes are can best be told in the President’s own words when he says: 7wentu times as ple in proportion to population are Talent ated se the United States as in Great Britain.” “At least fifty tumes as many robberies in pro- portion to population are ; in the United States asin Great Britain, and three times as many burglaries.” “Life and property are relatively more unsafe than in any other civilized country in the world.” In spite of all this, the President apologizes for the contaminating conditions under prohibition and declares that “It is only a section of the in- vasion of lawlessness.” * e I ¥ Can rr BE that the Jones law is in accord with the President's idea of proper legislative procedure —the Jones law, which is widely as the most menacing piece of repressive legislation that has stained the statute books of this republic since the Alien and Sedition laws under John Adams, which permanently put the Federalist party out of power and install ed the Democratic-Repub- lican party under Jefferson to preserve the rights and liberties of American citizens? Lhe Jones act calls for more vigorous and more vindictive enforcement of the sumptuary laws. The Jones act increases the penalties until the citizen who commits what can only be regarded as a misdemeanor is punished for a high crime. The Jones act adds persecution to prohibition, and in our principles of government substitutes fanaticism for freedom. _ The Jones act destroys the American ideals of liberty which have been our boast and our boon, and imposes upon our people the European idea of governmental tyranny which our Fathers came to this country to avert and avoid. Wiruat, the Jones act will defeat its own narrow purposes, and, instead of creating a condition of rigid restriction, will cause— First, fewer convictions because of over-severe penalties; Seconp, more killings for fear of possible infliction of the severe penalties; THIRD, more corruption to avoid arrests and possible convictions; ! Fourtu, higher prices for liquor on account of greater risks, and consequently greater profit in crime; FirtH, more violence and more violation of popular rights; SIXTH, more conflict between the extremes of bone- head drys and bullhead wets, with more distress and dis- comfort to the moderate, temperate, peace-loving, lib- erty-loving mass of our citizenship; SEVENTH, more cant and hypocrisy in public life, more insincerity among public men, and more disposi- tion on the part of the public to consider the lawmakers of the land a lot of fools and frauds and fanatics. All of which could be avoided if the party in power would remember that it was elected on the Republican ticket, and not on the Prohibition ticket, and that it could best serve its party and its country by restoring the principles of liberty and equality and justice for which our Fathers fought. For BE IT REMEMBERED that our Fathers shed their blood, not for Laws, but for prINCIPLEs. — — — PUBLISHED BY THE TWENTY-EIGHT HEARST NEWVSPAPERS- READ BY MORE THAN TWENTY MILLION PEOPLE

The secret of her “husband’s” sex was not revealed to her until a few months ago, the screen writer said, and at that time she parted company and came here in motion picture writing. From a packet of letters, a marriage certificate and other papers found in a hotel room at Niles today was pieced together a strange story of the mis- shapen life of “Peter Stratford.” The correspondence revealed the de- termination of a woman, apparently possessed of all the mental attributes of the opposite sex, to become a man. Out of that determination, jnvesti- gators said, was born Peter Stratford, a person with a gift for literary criti- cism and a follower of the cult of Sufi, an offshoot of an ancient oriental religion. With the birth of Peter Stratford, the letters showed, died Derestey Morton, a British subject, who came to America from New Zealand 20 years ago. Peter Stratford married Miss Row- land in Kansas City, Mo., in 1925. In Hollywood, the letters revealed, Peter Stratford assisted nationally oe playwrights and authors in their work. Other letters to a woman in Los An- geles, addressed only as “Alma,” re- vealed Peter’s love for her as based on the tenets of the Sufi cult. The manager of the hotel at Niles said Stratford and “Mrs. Stratford” reled, he said, but three months ago Stratford's “wife” left suddenly for Hol- lywood. | Yesterday Stratford, suffering from tuberculosis, was hurried to a hospital in Oakland. When doctors told the patient death was near, Stratford whispered hig se- cret, and the woman who “died” to give Stratford being years ago lived again only to go to a more lasting death a few minutes later. 21 LIVES ARE LOST IN BERLIN BATTLES CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. — alleged harsh measures of the police against Communists. The strikers were scattered over half a dozen plants in various industries and there was no interruption of work at the large plants. Communists Make Protest. In the Reichstag yesterday Communists started a row over the police suspension for three weeks of the Communist newspaper Die Rote Fahne. They argued that Communists were justified in taking retaliatory steps, but the excite- ment soon died and the house adjourn- ed until May 13. For the peaceful inhabitants of the affected areas the past three days have been a trying time. Their nerves, like those of the police, were badly frayed by the guerrilla warfare. Sniping continued through the day from windows and roofs. The police, already charged wtih “bloody butchery” by factions of the Left, used blanks until for self-protection they were forced to substitute steel and lead. Thirty- six policemen had been injured. The police chief and Socialists have charged that the riots which broke on the eve of May 1, the international Labor Day, were instigated by Moscow Communists, and the foreign office to- day opened diplomatic proceedings with the Soviet government in connection with posters dispiayed here ridiculing members of the German cabinet.

Alexandria Victor In Annexation Case Special Tribunal Grants 4 Square Miles of Arlington County to City. Alexandria, Va., was increased by four square miles and upward of 3,000 in population yesterday, when a special tribunal of three judges, sitting in the Arlington Circutt Court, granted all the city sought by annexation from Arling- ton County. ) This growth, of course, is subject to affirmative action by the Court of Ap- peals of Virginia, to which Common- wealth’s Attorney William C. Gloth, of counsel for Arlington County, an- nounced he would carry the case as soon as possible. The court, consisting of special Judges Don F. Halsey, of Lynchburg; Cc. W. Hudgins, of Chase City, and Frederick Coleman, of Fredericksburg. will reconvene at 9 o’clock this morn- ing to sign the order, and will return to Arlington County June 12 to de- termine questions of valuation.

The life of another Washington policeman was endangered early yes- terday morning through the use of a smoke screen by a suspected rum- runner and through efforts of the driver to force the motorcycle police- man into the curb. Sighting a suspected liquor car on Alabama avenue north of Pennsylvania avenue southeast, Policeman W. R. Greenfield, of the Eleventh Precinct, gave chase. A blanket covered the ton- neau of the car, believed to be carrying cases Of whisky. With the auto and motorcycle travel- ing at nearly an 80-mile per hour pace, the liquor car let loose a smoke screen when near the Pennsylvania avenue bridge while the driver swerved back and forth, im several instances trying to crowd Greenfield off the road.

Pennsylvania Railroad “WHOOPEE PARTY STOPPED IN CAPITAL Chicago Grand Jury Receives Description of Accused Officials’ Trip. PADDED PAY ROLLS CITED Chicago, May 3 (A.P.).—Alleged waste, pay roll padding and bachanalian “whoopee,” which blossomed once in a reported gay party at the Waldorf- Astoria Hotel in New YYork, today re- sulted in indictments against fifteen former and incumbent officials of the Chicago sanitary district. Returned before Chief Justice John J. Sullivan, the indictment charged conspiracy, embezzlement and illegal diversions of public funds. Some of the charges were based on the allega- tion that the district misspent more than $250,000. The outstanding picture presented to the grand jury during the investiga- tion was that of the trustees and their friends making a “flood control” jour- ney to Washington at public expense a year ago. Evidence was presented to show that after leaving Washington the trustees and their friends went to New York for the alleged party at the Wal- dorf-Astoria. Draws $6,900 Bill. This party, it was charged, resulted in broken furniture, bric-a-brac and other appointments for which the hotel presented and collected a bill of $6,900. The bill was paid out of the sanitary district funds, but none admitted au- thorizing it. Wholesale patronage resulting in many names on the pay roll of the dis- trict—names of persons whose services could not be determined—also figured in the ailegations, as did huge sums spent for minor contracts. The Chicago sanitary district was formed by the city and the State to care for sewage disposal of Chicago and surrounding towns. Trustees aré elect- ed to operate the district, expenses of which are paid by taxation. Among those indicted were: Timothy J. Crowe, Democratic former president of the district. James M. Whalen, Democratic trus- tee, reelected last November. Frank J. Link, Republican Trustee; John J. Touhy. Democratic trustee: August W. Miller, Republican trustee; Lawrence F. King, B®publican trustee: John K. Lawler, Republican trustee; all held over from old board; and Martin J. O’Brien, chief clerk of the district under Crowe and chairman of the man- aging committee of the Democratic party in Cook County. “Major Domo” of “Whoopee.” Henry E. Wallace, chief deputy clerk under Crowe, held over by present board and termed “Major Domo” of alleged “whoopee” party in New York. The indictments followed six months of investigation. A special grand jury impaneled to hear the evidence less than a month ago was halted and dissolved when it was discovered a brother-in-law of Crowe was @ member. The prosecutors then decided to turn the investigation over to the regular April Cook County Grand Jury, which returned its report today. Throughout the investigation prose- cutors fought a losing battle to obtain the “whoopee” records of the Central Auto Service Co., said to contain entries for liquor, women and entertainment, to present to the jury. The indict- ments returned were not based on any of the evidence these records were alleged to contain. 83 Seized in Raid 200 Others Escape When Police Charge Place; 3 Women Held. Eighty men and three women were arrested shortly before last midnight when the eighteen members of the Montgomery County police force raided a large house on Bradley Hill boulevard in the outskirts of Bethesda, Md. A crowd estimated at 200 persons escaped, according to Montgomery County Police Chief A. A. Moxley, who headed the raiders. It is thought the place was tipped off prior to the raid, but not long enough before for all to escape. Practically all those arrested are res- idents of Washington, according to the police. Just what charges were to be placed against the crowd had not been revealed at this writing, but police in- timated it would be disorderly conduct in nearly all instances.

In his letter to Representative Sim- mons, Pratt says: “I invite your attention to the law enacted by Congress under date of March 3, 1925, making it a felony to have an automobile equipped with a smoke screen in the District of Co- lumbia. After the passage of this act the use of smoke screens was not gen- eralfy resorted to—only a few such cases having been observed by mem- bers of this department. “Since the passage of the Jones bill, however, the use of smoke screens has become popular with rum runners, and the commanding officer of the Eleventh Precinct (the boundaries of which in- clude the main thoroughfares leading into the District of Columbia from southern Maryland) stated in a re- cent report that seventeen smoke screen violations had been observed by members of his command during the past month.” Representative Simmons called on Pratt for the aforementioned report after the initial debate in the House over the killing of Fleming.

(Associated Press.) The first inkling of the attitude of the Hoover administration toward the proposed Federal Department of Educa- tion was given yesterday by Secretary Wilbur, who informed the annual meet- ing of the American Council on Educa- tion that an adequate position for edu- cation within a t and with sufficient financial support was all that was needed. The address marked Mr. Wilbur’s first public discussion since he became In- terior of the administration policy toward education. He is himself an educator, having made it his life work and having resigned as president of Stanford University to enter the Cabinet. “The place of the National Govern- ment,” he said, “is not that of supply- ing large amounts for carrying on the administrative functions of education in the communities, but to develop methods, ideals and procedures, and to present them, to ba taken on their merits. The National Government, . can give wid information on procedures, can report on what is ac- tually going on in different parts of the country and in the world, and can unify to some extent the objects of those in the field of education, in so far as uni- fication is desirable. “There is a distinct place for this sort of thing in the administrative side of the National Government, but it should not be recognizet! as an admin- istrative position, with large funds at its disposal. A Department of Education similar to the other departments of the Government is not required.” Earlier the educators had heard Jul- jus H.

The pundits of the Senate committee on the Judiciary are wrestling with this portion of the old law that is alleged to have been vio- dated by Secretary Mellon: No person appointed to the office of Secretary of the Treasury shall directly or indirectly be concerned or interested in carrying on the business of trade or eommerce, - Two former Secretaries of the Treasury, Leslie M. Shaw and Carter Glass, one a Re- ‘publican and-the other a Democrat, have . furnished information which ought to assist ’ - 3 — 3— the Senate committee in obtaining an under- standing of this law, They merely point out that the law means what it says—a strange circumstance nowadays, and quite out of line cwith modern legislation. The law does not bar a@ property owner from the office of Secre- tary of the Treasury. It does bar a trader. The suggestion that a Secretary of the | Treasury can not be interested in any manu- ; uring concern, or profit by its operations, — 4s a fantastic distortion of the plain meaning ' ‘ofthe law. “The business of trade” is barred; that is, merchandising. No tradesman can be stary of the Treasury, but any one hold- tiny that office is entitled to own property, and ‘ > buy and sell property if such transactions a incidental to a business that is not a business of trade.

Call money brings 15 per cent inter- est in spite of the New York law making 6 per cent the legal limit of interest. When banks lend money on call at rates exceeding 6 per cent do they not actually encourage the “invisible banking” to which Col. Ayres refers? Everybody, visible and _ invisible, seems to be ignoring the law against usury. DANGER IN PORTABLE SCHOOLS. Washington was only switched by the tail of the severe storm which swept over Virginia, Maryland and other Southern States Thursday The damage and injury suffered here were not great. Since the storm struck during the night, and had abated considerably by night. housed in portable school buildings. Never- theless the storm again emphasized the con- stant danger to which a large number of school children in the National Capital are exposed every time a high wind blows, Several weeks ago a storm damaged three portable schools here, and children occupying one of them narrowly escaped injury. Thurs- day night only one of the portables was dam- aged, a section of the roof being torn off. Pupils attending Kalmia road and the Wesley Heights portables were dismissed for most of Friday because of continued wind. Stephen S. Kramer, first assistant superintendent of schools, expressed concern at the frequency with which windstorms damage these flimsy buildings. He can be certain that his concern is shared by the Washington public. The Board of Education has estimated its needs for new buildings at $2,565,000 in the 1931 school budget. This is an increase of $730,000 over the 1930 appropriation, but falls short of the actual needs for new schools. | On the other hand the requested appropriation for acquisition of new land for schools shows a decrease of $80,300. If the school board is allowed everything it has asked for in the budget just announced as well as proportion- ate increases in future years, it will never- | theless be a long time before school children of Washington are adequately housed. It is indicated that on the completion of new schools next February, nineteen portables will be removed from their present locations. But this does not mean that they will all go out of use, because new demands for school facili- The board now has a list of applications for portables in outlying sections that can not be filled. When it is realized that there are 75 of these fllmsy shacks now in use, all of whith range son for the National Capital to be ashamed of its schools. The school building program is not keeping pace with the growth in popula- tion. The Board of Education is doing the best it can under the circumstances, but it is seriously hampered by repeated trimming of its budget. The District Commissioners, the Budget Bureau and Congress must be brought to realize the critical situation which Friday, there was little concern over children in age from 10 to 20 years, there is every rea- THE WASHINGTON POST: the railroads are to be commended for taking a step that may hasten the disposal of the existing supply. An artificially stimulated movement of this sort, however, must be closely watched. Canada also has a huge supply of grain on hand, and it hardly seems likely that the Canadian government will sit idly by and permit American grain to go into the world markets to lower the demand for Canadian grain. If Canadian farmers, through their carefully organized and highly efficient mar- keting machines, decide that they must meet the price made possible by the freight reduc- tion on American wheat and. begin dumping bushel for bushel the net result may be a depressed price that will benefit no one and leave the railroads. holding the bag. Should this occur it is bound to influence the price of the new crop and perhaps spell disaster to millions of farmers. It is true that certain foreign areas are in need of grain. China, for example, could take millions of bushels if it could be laid down cheaply enough. A reduction in the export shipping rates, passed on to the consignee, will reduce the price of wheat without re- ducing the producers’ profit and stimulate de- mand. The reductions agreed upon, however, large as they are, probably are not sufficient to stimulate demand to any considerable de- gree. The effect of the rate reductions, es- pecially in connection with their effect on the world price of wheat, should be watched carefully. FREE ENTRY OF BAGGAGE. The Federal grand jury’s denunciation of the practice of “free entry” to American ports, as practiced by congressmen and other Gov- ernment officials, will be widely applaude?. Incidents which led to the grand jury investi- gation have brought a demand from the American people that the law, including the prohibition law, be applied to all without re- gard to official position. There is no reason why Government offi- cials should not submit their baggage to in- spection of customs officers. The very fact that they may bring in their baggage without inspection is a temptation to violate the law. In the case which brought about the investi- gation, customs inspectors testified that a rep- resentative admitted possession’ of liquor in his baggage on his arrival at New York aboard the Cristobal from the Canal Zone. The in- spectors further claim that he refused to allow them to inspect his baggage on the ground that he had been on official business and was entitled to free entry. If the testimony of the inspectors is true, this is a case of violation of the law under protection of official im- munity. In the judgment of the grand jury “such events constitute a condemnation of the long- standing practice of allowing to officials of the Government the privilege of ‘free entry.’ We regard it as un-American and contrary to the fundamental principle of equality before the law that any citizen merely because he is a congressman or other official, should be exempted from inspection of baggage or from operation of law or departmental regulation, while others, who merely are part of the plain people, are required to submit thereto.” The practice leads to “plain abuses, to wholly un- warranted claims of being on official busi- ness, to hampering the proper work of the and to natural suspicion SATURDAY.

Leonard P. Ayres, Cleveland ker, has risen to a position of prominence. At regular intervals he makes public his opinion regarding the course of business and nance, and, generally, events prove that his udgment is sound. His speech before the nited States Chamber of Commerce, having do with the stock market and credit, was ost impressive. It will be accorded serious nsideration and may be made a basis of ‘action. > “Out of my investigation of the present credit situation,” he said, “I have come to the conclusion that there is going on in this country a very serious degree of a new kind of eredit inflation; one that is rapidly im- pairing the usefulness of our commercial bank- ang system because it is resulting in taking corporation money out of the banks and bank- ing it in the loan markets; one that is rapidly ‘undermining the Federal Reserve system be- cause it operates outside of the reserve system.” ' fSeh inflation has been brought about by the functioning of what Col. Ayres describes as “a vast, unofficial, invisible banking system; a banking system by which corporations having excess funds loan those funds to the call money market and build up what we have me to know as loans to others—brokers’ Joans for the accounts of others.” To “in- iible banking” he ascribes the ‘‘major part ‘the extremely puzzling credit situation.” . * The so-called invisible banking is carried generally speaking, by three classes—large ustrial corporations, investment trusts and ivate individuals. Three classes become pvisible bankers’? when they have excess that they want to put to work.

The decision of the three special judges appointed to hear the case by Gov. Byrd upheld the right of the city to annex all the territory it sought. County officials have anounced their determination to take the case to the higher courts, however, so the city’s victory can not yet be termed complete. Arlington County’s opposition to annexation lies largely in the fact that it will lose more revenue than will be counterbalanced by the savings made possible through relinquishing control] over the 1,500 acres in question. Alexandria’s interest in the matter lies not alone in the greater revenues that will be made possible through the acquisition of new territory, but in the fact that it needs room for residential expansion and business de- velopment. The case was thrashed out in court by competent counsel, and the fact that the decision favored the city apparently indi- cates that its need for greater territory more than outweighs, so far as the public good is concerned, the loss that will be the county’s through the transfer of authority. No matter what the ultimate outcome may be, it is to be hoped that a new era of unified development of Virginia-next-to-Washington is in store. Arlington County and the City of Alexandria are part and parcel of Greater Washington. It is as much to their interest as it is to that of the District that they be developed in harmony with the regional plan and with due regard to their importance as integral parts of the National Capital area. GETTING RID OF SURPLUS WHEAT. In the interest of influencing the movement of the huge surplus stores of wheat executives of the more important Eastern railroads have agreed to accept temporary rate reductions on export wheat shipments. The reductions were agreed upon in recognition of the fact that ‘‘an emergency of national proportions exists necessitating every possible aid to the im- mediate removal of this surplus out of the country.” Rates on grain “‘at and east” of lower Lake Erie ports to the North Atlantic seaboard will be cut 2 cents a bushel. Rail reshipping rates from Chicago to New York for export are to be reduced from 22% cents a hundred pounds to 17 cents and the all-rail rate fram St. Louis to New York is to come down from 26% cents per hundred pounds to 20 cents. The reduced rates are to expire September 30 and are to be looked upon as ‘far less than can be regarded as reasonable rates.” As exhibiting a willingness to cooperate in reached by the railroads is to be commended. At the present time more wheat is on hand awaiting disposal than at any time since 1919, and a huge crop is approaching the harvest. With the Nation's granaries filled, to a greater or less extent, what is to be done with the new crop? Obviously, the supply on hand must the solution of a grave problem the agreement prosecution may not be possible in this case, but nevertheless “an official who prevented examination of baggage by claim of free entry and by threat of causing trouble in Washing- ton, can not complain of the consequences when weighed in the forum of public opinion.” Revocation of the privilege of free entry is demanded as a means of reducing the hy- pocrisy which surrounds the enforcement of the prohibition law. — —e FOREIGN FILM COMPETITION. The export business of the American motion picture industry is threatened on two fronts. Of outstanding importance is the campaign waged by the French government to make the American producer in effect subsidize the French industry in order that it may obtain a foothold. The French campaign is being watched critically by other European govern- ments. If France succeeds in her design other countries unquestionably will adopt similar restrictive measures. At present the matter stands at an impasse, with France insisting that she will limit the importation of American films in proportion to the numBer of films pro- duced in France, and the American distributors asserting that they will abandon the French market rather than accede to the demand. As though this were not enough to plague the American producer, more trouble has arisen in England. American sound-reproduc- ing apparatus enjoys almost exclusive popu- larity in England, and it is sold with the agree- ment that it will be utilized only for the re- production of American films. Some few weeks ago, however, a company was formed to take over certain German sound-reproducing patents and to manufacture “‘talkie’’ equipment for installation at rates much lower than those charged by the American manufacturers. The other day the formation of a new Anglo- Continental combine was announced, to be known as International Talking Screen Pro- ductions, Ltd., to manufacture “talkies” for British and continental exhibition. The com- bine is adequately capitalized and has secured the services of eminent dramatic artists in directing and acting capacities. Developments of the next year or so are bound to be interesting. No one can blame France for trying to limit the importation of American films to the end that a domestic industry may be allowed to gain a foothold. As has been frequently pointed out, however, the future of the French film industry depends entirely on its ability to make satisfactory pictures, an attainment that probably can not be influenced one way or the other by the imposition of import restrictions. Will the American “talkie” appeal to European audiences? Will it be found possible to resynchronize American “talkies” in European tongues? The Anglo-Continental combine will have the advantage over Ameri- can producers of being able to make sound movies tuned to the ear of European audiences. Possibly it will accomplish that which the French government through import restric- What Could It Be? Gloversville Leader Republican: The savage desert tribes of Africa pay no taxes, we read.

Atchison Globe: Considering the struggle each new idea has to pass through, it is a wonder there is prog- ress. Every new idea has to go through this barrage of criticism: First, it is said that the idea is “absolutely impos- sible.” Later it is said the idea is all right, except that it will never become practicable. Finally it is said the idea has gained considerable ground, but that it will take time to develop it. About 50 years iater the critic reverses himself and says, “Years ago I said it was a greta idea.” The big liar! New Use for Talkies. Baltimore Sun: Demonstration of a “talkie” before the American Chemical Society was analogous to a presentation at the Court of St. James. Those scientists were not of the sort to ap- prove an elementray treatment of a trivial subject; and, in fact, the film’s discussion of surface tension proved that the “talkie” can be as abstruse as its producer permits it to be, For this reason there may be a use for it in lec- tures about facts which remain true for several months at a time. And cer- tainly many a demonstrator would sleep more soundly because sure that his ex- periments, safely caught on the film, would not go wrong at the crucial meantime you will spend an occasional week-end away from home and meet youngsters who are more “‘broad-minded” than your home-town people. And since jou enjoy good times and gay laughter, as all youngsters should, there is some danger that dancing will charm you much as a snake is supposed to charm a bird, and thereafter, until your good sense comes to the rescue, you will be another dazed, hysterical victim of this present epidemic called jazz. The best way to avoid getting into trouble is to study the girls who have dancing on the brain—the ones who roll their eyes heavenward and declare that Bill or Jack is perfectly darling because he is such a swell dancer. You know the type—loud, vulgar, full of suggestive stories, addicted to cigarettes and petfng, fond of boys who carry liquor to parties, hollow-eyed, too heavily roughed, conscious of being very sophisticated and scornfully superior to a world that can enjoy life without con- stant excitement. You don’t want to be like that, I know. But that is what dancing does to the gizl who lets it destroy her sense of values. Dancing affords a sex thrill and serves as a substitute for conversa- tion and, therefore, will survive all reform waves. You will dance more or less to avoid being a wall flower, just as you will play bridge and tennis, swim, drive, nice people do to entertain themselves, A mania for dancing seems just as idi as a mania for gambling or cocktails. — dessert, but don’t make a meal of it.

(Copyright, 1929.) “MAN-IMAGE.” The most expensive root in the world is the genuine Asiatic wild ginseng— not the ordinary ginseng, but that spe- cific variety the root of which is cre- ated in the likeness of man and called by its worshipers “man-image” or “man-root,” writes Louise Crane in Asia Magazine. According to legend, -thts wrinkled, yellowish root lies in the earth for centuries, nay eons of time, sucking in the substance of life while slowly taking on the form of a human being. Millions of Tibetans and Ko- reans, as well as Chinese, proclaim it natufe’s greatest miracle—a cure-all for the ills of the flesh and, more than that, a rejuvenator warranted to arrest the march of the years. In the traditional Chinese medical parlance, ginseng ts “a tonic to the five viscera, quieting the animal spirits, es- tablishing the soul, allaying fear, ex- pelling evil effluvia, brightening the eyes, opening up the heart, benefiting the understanding and, if taken for some time, invigorating the body and prolonging life.” There are held to be five kinds of which the man-image va- riety is extremely rare and costly. Ob- servers claim to have seen transactions involving from $2,000 to $10,000 for a single root, though much lower prices are common. The various elements of value, such as form, age, weight, which determine the worth of any specimen of this precious root are closely inter- related. For example, the degree of its resemblance to the human figure is be- lieved to be more or less dependent on its age. Many of the roots answering every other requirement have two un- equally developed lower extremities. These are the specimens foreordained to femininity, quite as richly imbued with the regenerating essence truly, but a little lower in the scale of value “PANIC.” Pan, in Greek mythology, was a be- ing having the feet and horns of a goat, and often represented with goat's hair all over his body. He was the god of flocks and pastures, forests and life in the open. It was believed by the ancient Greeks that Pan inspired men with sudden and unreasonable fear— known as panic fear. Indeed, the Athenians believed that the panic among the Persians at the battle of Marathon was caused by Pan, and wor- shiped the supposed deity accordingly. From this ancient belief in panic fear, and sudden fright, especially con- tagious fright, spreading suddenly through whole groups of people, came to be known as a panic. Giving the derivation of the word panic, Webster's New International Dictionary traces it to the Greek Pan, the god. Literally, the word means: “Of or pertaining to Pan;—used of fear such as Pan was supposed to have caused.” By extension, the word panic has come to mean: “A sudden widespread fright or apprehension concerning financial affairs, resulting tn an arti- ficial depression in values caused by violent measures for protection or for the sale of securities or other property.” Now Herbert Hoover, President of the United States, continues his activi- ties in behalf of a plan which will alleviate the conditions of unemploy- ment that nearly always comes at in- tervals between periods of prosperity. The Federal Reserve Banks were estab- lished to prevent financial panics such as that of 1907. It is to be hoped that Mr. Hoover's plan, or a similar one, will tend to offset the ill effects of Ugly Approaches to Washington Dis- tress and Shock Tourists—Billboards | Should Come Down— Danger in J 11e8, To the Editor of The Post—Sir: I have read with much interest your editorial urging the removal of un- sightly structures on the country high- ways and want to commend you for — the stand taken. I am a tourist, har- ing made several trips to Washington, and I am shocked at the ugly and un- sightly display of signs ana billboards encountered just before entering the Capital. | Now that it is the intention to beau- | tify Washington, the natural adjacent scenery should not be so disfigured and — distorted. The tourist entering your city for the first time would think he was entering a side show instead of the Capital of his country. This is es- — pecially true of the multitudinous sign- — boards encountered soon after leaving Hyattsville. A tourist entering your city, who has been admiring the beauti- ful roadway scenery where sign boards are not permitted, is surprised and shocked at the undignified surround- ings and to think that such things are | tolerated. While this condition is unsatisfac- tory, there is another practice which to my mind is dangerous and may re- sult in serious accidents.

Bushman. Yes, the handsomest man in the world for while a few years back—no other. It was the first time I had exchanged persifiage with Mr. Bushman since the night many years ago when he assisted in the dedication of the Knickerbocker Theater, along with Beverly Bayne, Alice Brady, Carlyle Blackwell and numerous others. At Keith's, somehow, I always missed him. Maybe the fact that I never went around to see him had some- thing to do with it. At any rate, this one-time idol of the susceptible sex never looked better than he sounded from where I sat at Four- teenth and the Avenue and listened to him talk from Tenth and F on the day of which I speak. He had just returned, it seemed, from a vacation trip to Cuba and the West Indies, following a long and arduous season in vaudeville. Frankly, I di@ not ktliow there was enough vaudeville left te provide that kind of a season, but Mr. Bushman evi- dently was under the impression that that was the kind of season it had been The West Indies had proved a great hit with him, especially the sable- tressed and wide-eyed senoritas. | could appreciate his suffering, for I, too, had lived in the tropics.

Mr. Robyn, who has appeared here frequently be- fore, but nevertheless is probably best known for Ris radio association with “Roxy and his gang.” was programmed at the Fox for a single number. That would not do at all, in public estima- tion, and from the outset of the en- gagement he was compelled by insis- tent applause to sing twice. Sometimes three times. So he is held over for a second week, beginning today.

It is expected that this will prove one of the features of the convention. Dr. Alfred N. Goldsmith, vice presi- dent of the Radio Corporation of Amer- ica, past dent of the institute, will lead the discussion and will be followed by J. W. Horton, of General Radio Co.; Capt. R. H. Ranger, Radio Corporafion of America; C. Francis Jenkins, of the Jenkins Laboroatory, and others. Following the symposium there will be a demonstration of educational sound pictures dealing with the princi- ‘ples of modulation and filtering pre- sented by John Mills, of Bell Telephone Laboratories. The institute is now entering its twentieth year of activities and includ- ed in its membership roll are such U- lustrious namesas Guglielmo Marconi, Prof. M. I. Pupin, of Columbia Univer- sity; A.

To that end a resolu- tion was passed recommending that broadcasters confine announcements to the names of sponsors, but eliminate other advertising details. The resolu- tion follows: “Whereas, the listening public has clearly indicated to the radio indus- try its disapproval of details of adver- tising matter and reiteration thereof in announcing radio programs, and “Whereas, the good will of the public is of interest alike to the industry and to the sponsors of radio programs, “Resolved, that the Board of Direc- tors of the Radio Manufacturers Asso- ciation recommends, in the interests of the listening public, that broadcasters confine announcements to the names of the sponsors of the broadcasting pro- gram and a brief statement of the products marketed without details or other advertising matter.” As revealed in a brief filed in the case of WNYC, the New York City municipal station, which has gone to court in an effort to obtain more time on the air, the Federal Radio Commis- sion depreciates the importance of this station in fire and police work. “The use of Station WNYC for the purpose of establishing an intrade- partmental communication system for the fire and police departments of the City of New York, is not material in these ings,” the commission brief declares. “Communications of this nature are not public communi- cations in the sense that they are of general interest to the public. They do not, therefore, constitute a broad- casting service.

As you know, other than white ani very pale pastel shades, and an occasional black, colored lingerie was merely a subject for the pens of jaded humorists. But the very newvest lingerie seems to vie with itself for the privilege of being the most shockingly colored—and the truly astonishing part of it is. that, executed as it is in transparent geor- gette or chiffon, it is not garish! But coler or no color, there is one characteristic of all elegant lingerie that can not possibly be lacking—and that is its profusion of dainty hand- work. Even a so-called simple “tailored undergarment” must have a method in its simplicity—and a studied art in its execution. “Plain” lingerie is just out of the question! Along with the impossibility of plain- ness is the necessity for simplicity of silhouette — a contradiction that re- quires positive genius to reconcile. Yet clever fingers do reconcile them—and with happy results! Illustrated today is some new lingerie, in all its brightly colored georgette! Sprin; lingerie!

Birds are here, with their nest-build- ing and singing; flowers are showing their smiling faces in the gardens of homes and in the woods. We can count on the weather being fair and inild during most of the month, May is named after an ancient god- dess—Maia. She was the mother of the mesenger-god, Mercury, and the Romans said that she watched over —— things People in England have long given |‘ honor to the month of May. On the first day they used to go out early in the morning, before sunrise, and gather branches. Taking the branches, with the still fresh dew, back with them from the woods, they would blow horns and shout with joy and merri- ment. There was also a Maypole dance, and a wreath of flowers was placed on the head of the fairest maid of the village. She was called Queen of the May. and wore her crown vety Po. In 1890 the first of May was used by workmen in several countries as a time for parades and meetings in fa- vor of the eight-hour working day. Since then the day has been marked mainly by the same kind of action. It is little wonder that men who labor in mines and mills should think of the bright sunshine of May. and should wish more time to enjoy !t. Last year at this time | was’ mak- ing ready to embark for England. Steaming across the ocean, I spent two May weeks in the central and southern parts of the country.

When you just feel gone, invest in a home-made facial—a bottle of mild buttermilk and a box of absorbent cot- ton! You just thoroughly clean your face first, with soap and water or cream, whichever you wish, then you soak strips of cotton in the buttermilk and put it flat on your face, all except your nose—then lie down and try to relax perfectly. Leave this cotton strip on about fifteen minutes the first time to see how it affects your skin. Take it off and throw it away and wash your face with tepid water. And there you are!

Allied Power & Light, Penn-Ohio Edison and United Gas Im- provement also moved into new high ground, Revival of activity and strength in Marconi International Ma- rine was based on London reports that current earnings are running well above a year ago, due to the increase in airplane equipment business. Arkan- sas Natural Gas also attained a new high on s« heavy turnover. Aluminum Co. of America again ran up nearly 10 points, to another new high record, at 274%, but lost most of its gain. Guardian Fire Insurance Co. continued to respond to the excellent 1928 earnings report, showing more than $10 a share; by touching a new peak at 74%, and then easing to around 71 on realizing. Other industrials to move into new high ground included Gold Seal Electric, Perryman Electric, Goldman Sachs Trading Corporation, Morrell & Co., Procter & Gamble and Ray bestos.

Continued large deliveries of wheat on Chicago May contracts, 2,067,- 000 bushels today. acted also as a handicap to friends of higher prices. It was not, however, until near the end of the day that wheat values turned down- grade in earnest.

The strike of horse owners, which held up the opening of the Illinois turf season at the Aurora track for three days, was settled tonight. Entries were immediately made for the seven-race program tomorrow. The strike ended in a victory for members of the Thoroughbred Horse- men’ iation, who held out for larger /purses and deduction of 1 per cent of all winnings to be credited to their organization. . Under the terms of the settlement, the Exposition Park Jockey Club agreed to hang up $6,000 m purses daily for the first seven days of the meeting, and then increase the amount to 86,- 600 daily. This represents an increase of $600 and $800 daily in purse money, over the original plan. There will be five $800 purses and two $1,000 purses for the first seven days. Thereafter there will be five $1,000 purses and two $800 purses. The horsemen had de- manded that all purses be increased to $1,000. The jockey club further agreed to deduct the 1 per cent, provided the winning owner made assignment to the club for that portion of the purse. The money, in turn, will be turned over to the Horsemen's Association. The meeting was scheduled to start last Wednesday, with seven races daily, six ‘Roguish Eye, Heavily Backed, Out of Derby Chicago, Ill., May 3 (A.P.).— John J.

The 3-year-old, one of the favor- ites for the classic, pulled up lame after working the Derby distance Wednesday. He developed a swell- ing in his front legs and, although the trouble yielded to treatment, Coughlin decided to take the colt nut of training temporarily. He will point Roguish Eye for the $50,000 American Derby, which will be decided at Washington Park, June 15. Coughlin will depend on Karl Eitel, another outstanding 3-year- 1 old, to carry his colors in the Ken- tucky classic. _ ROHR of them for purses of $800 and one at $1,000. The turfmen balked when their demand for large purses and the 1 per cent issue were refused and im- mediately declared a strike. TIGERS DOWN WHITE SOX, 6 TO! Uhle Allows Five Hits in Fourth Victory of Season. Uhle, veteran right-hender, who was shoved across the lake to De- troit last winter by the Indians, regis- tered his fourth victory of the season here today, taming Lena Blackburne’s White Sox by 6 to 1. It was the first defeat for the Pale Hose in five games. Uhle limited his opponents to five blows and prevented the home forces from bunching so many as two of these in any round but the fifth. After that inning, the White Sox went hitless es Uhle ran his strike-out total to five. Led by Gehringer, who accounted for three runs, with a homer and a triple, the Tigers pounded Alphonse Thomas for nine hits. Bill Oissell helped the Tigers along with three artistic mis- lays. Heinie Schuble, Detroit short fielder, maintained a corner on Tiger errors with two. These bobbies, fol- iowing Clancy's single in the first, gave the Sox their only run. Gehringer’s Triple and Heilmann’s Single Count Winning Run. Dale Alexander’s double and a single by Schuble got this one back for the Bengals in the second. Gehringer’s triple and Heilmann’s single sent home the ultimate winning marker in the sixth, but one more was added in the seventh and three more were sent home in the ninth just for good measure.

NIVERSITY OF VIRGINIA evened scores for an earlier defeat at the hands of the University of Mary land Baseball Team when the Cavaliers triumphed over the Old Liners, 3 to 0, yesterday at College Park. It was the fourth victory in eight starts in the Tri-State League of the Southern Con- ference for Virginia and the fifth defeat in eight games for Maryland. Inability of Maryland’s batters to hit Red Marshall, stock Cavalier hurler, at opportune times was largely responsible for the Old Liners’ defeat yesterday. Marshall gave up six hits and walked five, but contrived to pull out of holes in several instances, being aided by brilliant support by his mates. Benny April, Washington boy, catching for Virginia, displayed an unusually accu- rate arm, nailing the four Marylanders who attempted to steal on him . Virginia Makes One Run in First, Second and Seventh. Virginia counted one run each in the first, second and seventh innings, but though Maryland got as far as third three times, it was unable to count. Milburn, starting Terrapin pitcher, after being touched for five hits, in- cluding two doubles in the first two in- nings, gave way to Boublitz, who pitched fine ball the remainder of the way, limiting the Cavaliers to one run, which was unearned, six hits and a walk. Capt. Randolph, third baseman, was the leading Virginia hitter, getting a double, two singles and a sacrifice in four tries. Singles by Holland and T. Bowen and Sloan’s double produced Virginia's first run in the opening inning. A double by Randolph and Marshall's single yielded the Cavaliers their tally in the second, and Holland’s scatch hit to Het- zel, sacrifices by T. Bowen and J.

Cold Weather Greets Nats in West Hadley to Face Tribe if Elements Permit Game Today. Peck in Same Boat as Johnson; Barnes to Get Chance. By FRANK H. YOUNG (Staff Correspondent of The Post). LEVELAND, Ohio, May 3.—A semi- blizzard, with spitting snow ‘n’ everything, greeted Manager Wal- ter Johnson and his Nationals when they arrived here shortly after noon today for a three-game series with the Indians which marks the beginning of their first 1929 Western invasion. It is an off day on the Washington sched- ule, but the Cleveland and St. Louis clubs were booked to clash, and, like the motorman who takes a nice long car ride on his day off, all of the Nats were figuring on attending the game, had it been played. Whether or not the Washington club will see action tomorrow remains to be seen, as the local weather man has sev- eral, “ifs” included in his prophecy, which is to the general effect that Saturday likely will be cold. If the game is played, Irving Hadley will do the flinging for the Nationals with Joe Shaute likely opposing him on the hill in the hope of stopping the Tribes’ los- ing streak, which has reached five con- secutive games. If the game is not played, it will be “just too bad,” Manager Johnson stated tonight. “Here we got off to a bad start,” the Nat leader explains, “then we suddenly found our batting eyes against the Yankees Tuesday and in- stead of getting a chance to keep on going we have been stopped dead by the weather. Wednesday's game was postponed, we were showing signs of keeping up our good batting Thurs- day and had to stop because of rain when we were leading, and drew a blank date today. More idleness to- morrow is likely to throw the boys back to where they were before they suddenly showed signs of hitting their batting stride. “There is a certain amount of psychology which helps a team just coming out of a slump and an idle spell will kill it quicker than anything else. All I ask for now is a chance for us to play every day.” Peck Up Against Proposition Like That of Johnson. Roger Peckinpaugh seems to be up against the same proposition which has faced Johnson. He has been forced to do a lot of experimenting, and like Johnson he is not yet out of the woods either. Outfielder Dick Porter, Balti- more slugger, who was counted upon heavily, seems to have temporarily flivvered and is now adorning the bench. He had a stick average of 333 to show for his eight years of service with the Orioles and cost the Tribe ap- proximately $50,000. Ed Morgan, with the team last year as both infielder and outfielder, is now covering the ter- ritory in right. Another disappointment on which Peckinpaugh did not figure is Jackie Tauner, acquired in the trade with De- CONTINUED ON PAGE 15, COLUMN 4.

Davis Cup Team Plays At White House May 21 Philadelphia, May 3 (‘A.P.).—The American Davis Cup Tennis Team will play before President and Mrs. Hoover ton. Samuel H. Collum, president of the United States Lawn Tennis Association, announced today that he had accepted on behalf of the Davis Cup players an invitation from Mr. Hoover for them to play at the White House on May 21 In the event of unfavorable weather on that day they will go into action the next afternoon. The candidates, John Hennessy, Fritz Mercur, John Van Ryn and Wilmer Allison, have been practic- ing here. Argentine Ring Star Sails for U. S. Invasion Buenos Aires, May 3 (A.P.).—Victorio Campolo, Argentine heavyweight, an- nounced today that he would leave with his manager for New York, May 16, to seek his fortune in American rings. Campolo is 6 feet 4 inches tall and weighs 225 pounds. He succeeded Louis Firpo as South American cham- pion, but was knocked out by Monte 4. Munn in his only clash with an Ameri- can boxer. Tech-Eastern Game Postponed to May 17 Old Man Weather won the high school series game between Tech and Eastern yesterday, with the result that the two teams will meet on May 17 to settle their feud for the- championship. Be- cause of the col dwind sweeping over the field at the Eastern Stadium, Coaches Guyon and Edwards, of Eastern and Tech, respectively, thought it ad- visible to wait for a warmer day. The contest, had it been played, would have brought together the two strongest teams in the series as both have won two victories in the series and are tied for first place. A win for either would have practically clinched the championship. —— Mens Wom Stores NW. 734 8TH ST. NW 701 8 ST. NE. TEN WEEKS TO PAY. on the White House courts in Washing- 1 RUGGED CHARM —Of Chuck Wiggins— ASSET IN RING —By WESTBROOK PEGLER_ EW YORK, May 3.—If the prob- lem of succession to the heavy- weight championship of the world is one that must be solved, a simple and expensive solution would be Mr. Chuck Wiggins, the Indianapolis pugilist who used to fight Gene Tun- ney now and again with moderate suc- cess. There may be simpler and less expensive heavyweights but Mr. Wig- gins is simple enough and he is such a thorough aesthete that if there were no money in the house he would fight for pleasure or for the beers, which amounts to the same thing with him. Moreover, Mr. Wiggins has this in his favor that on a good night he would be quite certain, to give Max Schmel- ing, Jack Sharkey or Paulino Uzcudun a boisterous slapping and win on points, which is as much as Mr. Tunney, him- self, did in winning the championship from Dempsey. Mr. Wiggins is possessed of a certain rugged charm which would endear him to the public as a change from the rather austere dignity of the late cham- pion Whatever else may be said of the Chuckler, he is positively not re- fined and his record in this respect is unblemished with the sole exception of the time he went slightly fashionable, bought himself a charger at the liqui- dation of the effects of a defunct team- ing company in Indianapolis and or- ganized himself into an exclusive, one- man hunt club. The hunt disbanded after a brief existence. Mr. Wiggins set out one morning to follow his hound in pursuit of the fox, if any, and after some bouncing over hill and dale, the charger pulled up at the door of a suburban beer store. Mr. Wiggins Came Back to His Hotel Riding Side-Saddle. It has never been said that Mr. Wig- gins passed a beer store so he dis- mounted and went In to have a few crocks of beer. Remounting after a time he re- sumed the hunt, uttering jolly cries of “Yoicks” until the charger, with mar- velous equine intuition, pulled up at another beer store. This went on all day and Mr. Wiggins returned to the stable at dusk riding side-saddle and singing, “Tentivuy, Tantivuy, Away!” “I say, you kxow, that is not half ripping and all that sort of thing,” Mr. Wiggins exclaimed as the hostler held the ladder for him to dismount. “My charger is a most remarkable ani- mal, upon me soul. Every half mile or so he pulls up at some store and waits until I have a few penny worth of mild and bitter. ‘Straordinary.” “Yes,” the hostier said, “he would be likely to. He has been hauling a wagon for one of the local imported Canadian ale brewerles ever since prohibition came in and he probably took you over the same route.” It was Mr. Ray Alvis, manager of Mr. Wiggins, who insisted that he give up riding the charger. Mr. Alvis is tem- peramentally out of fix with his pugil- ist and is constantly putting obstacles between him and his beer. Indeed, hig latest official paper, announcing the chuckler’s summer campaign for the heavyweight championship, states that he has exacted a promise to obstain from beer, which seems ill-advised, as Mr. Wiggins fights best when in his seidels and it troubles him to have to Break his promises. Once Victim of Vicious Breach Of Faith and Loses Bout. Mr. Wiggins was the victim of a vicious breach of faith several years ago and was knocked out by Tommy Gibbons. On this occasion, Mr. Wig- gins was suffering from a fractured rib on his right side and he was afraid Mr. Gibbons’ left hook would irritate the injury. So before the boxing contest began he went to Mr. Gibbons’ dressing room and told him all about it, except that he said the broken rib was on the left side. “I did not trust Gibbons, as 1 thought he might deceive me, so I decided to deceive him first,” Mr. Wiggins related. “Therefore 1 made him promise to lay off my left side, realizing that he would start hammering there right away, which he did, being a sportsman of very objectionable methods. “Of course, when my ribs are all right I can’ let them hammer away all day, so his pounding on the left side, in violation of his promise, only showed what an untrustworthy character he was without doing me any harm. He would hit me a paste there and say, ‘Oh, pardon me, I forgot,” and I would grunt and say, ‘Please, Tom, be care- ful, as you are hurting me.’ Gibbons Finally Finds Right Side Ils the Right Side. “This went on for nine rounds and was holding him fairly even, but when we came out for the tenth he walked into a clinch and said, “You double- crosser, you have been deceiving me and taking advantage of my good na- ture becaus. I have pounded that left side enough to know that those ribs are all O. K. Now I am going to poke you a few on the right side and see if you have betrayed my confidence.’ CONTINUED ON PAGE 15, COLUMN 4.

Gree Falls Bridge Plans Are Given Hurley Approval New Span Specifications Get Official Sanction; Structure Will Connect Fairfax County, Va., With Montgomery County, Md.; One of Many Projects. Assistant Secretary of War Patrick J. Hurley yesterday approved plans submitted to the War Department for the bridge that the Great Fails Bridge Co. has been authorized by Congress to erect at Great Falls. The bridge when completed will con- nect Fairfax County, Va., with Mont- mery County, Md., and will give the t growing population of both coun- ties easy access to Washington. It is one of the many projects contemplated in connection with the development of Great Falis. Maj. Brehon Somervell, District en- PTT BUDGET ISK MLF MILLION MORE ® bia- | Total Appropriation Urged for Year Is $3,591,601; No Surprises Seen. 100 NEW MEN REQUESTED An increase of $505,651 over the ap- propriations for the coming fiscal year is asked for the Police Department by Maj. Henry G. Pratt, superintendent of police, in his estimates for the 1931 fiscal year. The total appropriation asked for by the new police chief is $3,591,601. The estimates were submitted yester- day by Maj. Pratt to Daniel J. Dono- van, District auditor, to whom all esti- mates go as they are prepared by de- partment heads until the whole Dis- trict budget has been tentatively pre- pared and is ready for consideration by the District Commissioners. The estimates prepared by Pratt con- tained no surprises. They provide for an increase of 100 men in the person- nel of the department; purchase of ad- ditional motor equipment, including two armor-protecteil automobiles for use of the rum and emergency head- quarters squads; purchase of a site for a new First Precinct Police Station, and an increased number of officers and detectives, the latter to be promoted from the ranks. Their places would be filled out of the 100 new privates pro- vided for. Approval of the estimates will mean that all “rookie” cops are to be put through a three-month period of care- ful training and preparation for their job of policing. Such schooling, Maj. Pratt believes, is necessary properly to equip a young policeman with the fine points of his job and provide the city with the kind of police protection it should have. Acquisition of a new site for the First Precinct Station, now located on Twelfth street between C and D streets northwest, was provided for in antici- pation of the development of the Fed- eral building program. Pratt proposed purchase of a new site on the south sid> of E street between Ninth and Tenth streets northwest. The esti- mates provide $50,560 for purchase of the proposed site. The increase in the personnel and the advancement of men in rank to provide badly needed additional offi- cers calls for an increase of $280,826 in the estimates for personnel. Erection of a storage building for use Oo the department is another new project provided for in the estimates. Such a building, it is estimated, would cost $155,000. In addition to the two armor-pro- tected cars asked for in the estiniates, purchase of fourteen additional motor- cycles, which would be distributed among the precincts as reserve equip- ment, is provided for.

The War Department gave its ap- proval for placing some of the founda- tions for the bridge on this island. Congress authorized the construction of the bridge on April 1, 1928. The bridge, the act declared, must not hin- der navigation nor fill in the channel. It is directed that the bridge span the Potomac River at Great Falls, 10 miles p stream from the Francis Scott Key Bridge. CTY ABANDONS PLAN 10 EXTEND V STREET Cost Is Called Prohibitive, in View of Return as an Aid to Traffic. FIRST DISCUSSED IN 1912 The District Commissioners yesterday ordered abandoned plans for cutting V street through from Georgia avenue to Ninth street northwest, opposite the entrance of the Washington American league baseball park. The cost of cutting the street through was considered to be entirely too much for the benefits which would result in the lessening of traffic congestion now created by baseball crowds at Seventh and U streets. ; Following authorization by Congress in 1927, the District brought condem- mation proceedings and the resulting jury award effectively brought the plan to its death. The jury assessed dam- ages totaling $137,511.08, with benefits totaling only $27,068, which left a bal- ance Of $110,443.08 to be borne by the District out of its general revenues. The plan received its death blow re- cently when 8S. R. Bowen, vice president and general counsel of the Washington Railway é& Electric Co., in a conference with the corporation counsel, William W. Bride, declared that his company was well enough satisfied with pres- ent conditions and could not see how it would benefit by the new street and the necessity of rerouting its tracks over it. Consequently Mr. Bowen sald, the railway company did not.feel justified and would not, agree to any reduction in its share of the damages fixed by the jury. The street car campany would have got $90,327 of the total damages. The Commissioners therefore aban- doned the plan. The scheme first was discussed in 1912, District records show, and a meas- ure was introduced in Congress in Jan- uary, 1913. Similar bills were rein- troduced in succeeding Congresses, and finally, on January 13, 1927, fourteen years later, Congress enacted the meas- ure into law. In the meantime, chang- ing conditions and increasing values shot the damages up to the point where the Commissioners themselves, after having gone through condemnation proceedings in the courts, threw the whole project out. Three Young Boys Injured by Autos One, 4, Is Seriously Hurt When Car Strikes Him in City. Three young boys were injured, one seriously, in traffic accidents here yes- terday. They were 4-year-old Kenneth Bouden, of 524 Eighth street south- east; Robert Lindsey, 3 years old, of 1430 Potomac avenue southeast, and William R. Dawson, 12 years old, of 2352 Q street southeast. The Bouden boy was struck by an automobile operated by Guy Sydnor, 22 years old, of 1725 Fifteenth street southeast, while playing in front of his home. He was taken to Casualty Hos- pital and treated by Dr. Louis Jima) for shock and internal injuries. His condition is said to be serious. Sydnor | was released pending the outcome of the child’s injuries. Robert Lindsey suffered minor in- juries and shock when he ran into the side of a moving automobile near his home. Young Dawson was struck by a Capital Traction Co. street car at Second street and Pennsylvania ave- nue southeast. He suffered lacerations and bruises.

POLICE ARE COMMENDED After laying at the doorstep of pro- hibition the cause for the increase in crime, the District grand jury, in @ special report made to Chief Justice Walter I. McCoy yesterday in the Dis- trict Supreme Court, appealed to the citizenry of the District to “stamp out crime arid disrespect for law” by aid- ing in enforcement of the prohibition and all other laws. The prohibition situation in the Dis- trict was the main issue dealt with in the report, which was prompted by the ‘address of President Herbert Hoover re- cently at the Associated Press lunch- eon in New York City on the subject of law observance. ~~ “It would seem that most all crime is on the increase and the cause of this increase, from our observation, has in a considerable degree been due to the prohibition act. That much im- provement in the enforcing of the pro- hibition laws is possible, we believe to be true,” the report stated. More Dry Laws Urged. Additional prohibition laws for the District, empowering all District licemen with the authority of Federal prohibition agente, and the abolition of the paid police-informer system in prohibition cases were the outstanding recommendations in the report. “Bince the adoption of the eighteenth amendment, the Congress, which is, in effect, the State Legislature for the Dis- trict of Columbia, has passed no legisla- tion under section 2 of the amendment for its eenforcement specifically by the District. The terms of the national pro- hibition act, of course, apply in the Dis- trict, as they do in all States, but the authority for the enforcement of this law by act of Congress rests with the Commissioner of Prohibition. The Dis- trict of Columbia has a prohibition law, known as the Sheppard act, which was passed by Congress prior to the adop- tron of the eighteenth amendment, but this law is not as broad in its terms on violations. In other words, the Metropolitan Police Department of the District is without specific legislative authority to enforce the eighteenth ee or the national prohibition act.” Police Are Commended. Eleven men are at present employed as prohibition agents for the District, five counties of Maryland and one county of Virginia, in addition to ap- proximately 35 District policemen, with power to enforce the prohibition laws in the District, the report stated. In this connection the grand jury wishes to commend the Metropolitan Police Department for the effective work it has done in prohibition en- forcement in the District in spite of the handicaps under which it is op- erating. “It is impossible to state, of course, what the intention of Congress may have been in omitting to provide spe- cifically for the enforcement of the act by local authorities. However, on ita face it is apparent that the Con- gress did not provide that the Metro- pclitan Police Department should un- dertake the enforcement of prohibi- tion in the District under the terms of the national prohibition act. Metro- litan police officers, therefore, while aving authority to enforce all other laws, can not act in the enforcement of the national prohibition act with- out first securing authority from the Commissioner of Prohibition. Alternatives Are Cited. “The present situation presents two courses of action. First, that the en- forcement of the act be left entirely to the Commissioner of Prohibition, as provided in the national prohibi- tion act and subsequent acts; second, that the Congress specifically proviie by an amendment to the national pro- hibition act, or by a separate act, that the Metropolitan Police Depart- ment have equal authority with the Commissioner of Prohibition for the enforcement of the act in the Dis- trict. The grand jury recommends that steps be taken to accomplish the latter course. This would empower every policeman to act in connection with the prohibition law just as he does in connection with every other law, and would not involve any special detail for that purpose. “The grand jury also has noted it is the practice of the Police Department to employ persons outside of the regu- lar service as informers to obtain evi- dence in cases of reported or suspected liquor violations and to appear as wit- nesses in these cases. We believe this practice is not sound and recommend, therefore, that the practice be discon- tinued and that all evidence in cases of reported or suspected liquor viola- tions should be obtained by persons in the ar service of the Commis- sioner of Prohibition or the Metropoli- tan Police Department and by any other persons having police powers.” The report was signed by Eugene E. Thompson, foreman of the jury. Roomer Found Dead in Bed, _ Robert F. Cronie, 65 years old, a FOoomer at the National Hotel, was found dead in bed yesterday afternoon by M. G.
