FINAL VOTE ON TARIFF MOVED TO NOVEMBER House Conferees Likely to - Alter Stand on Farm Bill for Speed. SENATE MAY RECEDE ON DEBENTURE FIGHT Political Advantages Seen if Hawley Measure Ballot Comes in Fall. >. By CARLISLE BARGERON. President Hoover is understood to have agreed yesterday to the plans of congressional leaders for a recess not later than June 10, unti] September ‘9, with a final vote on the tariff set for two months later. Senator Watson, majority leader of the Senate; Speaker Longworth, and Majority Leader Tilson were his break- fast guests. The conference was said to have been for the purpose of ac- quainting the President with the leg- islative situation and with the recess plans of the leaders. The President, at least, is understood to have interposed no objection. With a view to getting away no later than June 10 and quite possibly before, the House conferees, it is be- lieved, are preparing to reconsider their refusal to confer on the farm: bill 80 long as it contains the debenture pro- visiom”"A realization that their atti- tude was untenable may also have something to do with this. A Gesture for the Farmer. When the farm bill was sent to the House by the Senate, there was a dis- position on the part of some to send it right back on the ground that the Senate had usurped the House’s au- thority. But instead, the House passed a resolution saying that the Senate had done wrong, but that the former was not one to let a technicality stand in the way of aiding the farmer, so it would send the bill to conference. But the House conferees, as soon as they met the gentlemen from the Sen- ate, told them that the debenture pro- vision would have to be stricken out before they would put their hands on it. Presumably, they were acting on the instructions of House leaders. It developed, therefore, that the mag- naminowus spirit of the House, as ex- pressed in its resolution, was mere “bunk.” The Senate conferees, headed by Senator McNary, pleaded with the gentlemen from the House to lay the debenture fight aside and that other differences in the bill be first recon- ciled. With these differences recon- ciled they said they could most likely go back to the Senate and get it to re- cede on the debenture. But the House conferees were adamant, despite the resolution passed by their body. Recess Desire Aids Agreement. The way is being paved now, though. with the yearning to go home, or at least to get away from Washington, for the representatives to get together with the senators on the other differences and then an effort will be made to have the Senate recede on the debenture. The Senate Democrats and Progres- sives, having stimulated interest in their debenture plan, will probably be in a more relenting mood with the J MRS. CHARLES A. LINDBERGH.

LAW AGAIN (Associated Press.) Mrs. Mabel Walker Willebrandt, the first woman to be appointed to a high Government office, soon is expected to retire*as assistant Attorney General in charge of the prosecution of prohibi- tion, narcotic, internal revenue and customs law violations. While her resignation: has not yet been submitted to President Hoover, friends of Mrs. Willebrandt said yester- day she probably would leave the Justice Department next month to re- turn to private law practice. For some time she has had under con- sideration important offers from sev- era] large law firms. Mrs. Willebrandt is en route to Waco, Tex., to accept. a degree from Baylor University, and the expectation is that she will formally tender her resignation soon after her return and take up law practice in the East, al- though her home is in California. Friends of Mrs, Willebrandt, who fre- quently has held the spotlight of pub- licity both in connection with prohibl- tion cases and politics, said she had wanted to retire at the end of the Coolidge administration, but had con- sented to continue in office because of the rather large number of changes in the high personnel of the Department of Justice which had to be made after the change of administrations. Since last March 4 general but wholly unconfirmed reports have been that Mrs. Willebrandt was not wholly satisfied with her own situation in the department. One report was that she wanted full authority in prohibition prosecution cases, since she was to have full responsibility. Another was that if the prohibition unit were transferred from the Treas- CONTINUED ON PAGE 6, COLUMN 2.

New York, May 27 (U.P.).—Bears hammered down the stock list today, and at the close values had melted more than $2,000,000,000 as based on the number of shares outstanding of the various companies. Terrific pressure was brought against the market shortly before noon, and it continued through the remainder of the day. At the close about 150 issues had been forced to new lows for the year or longer, and the majority closed on the low; prices were off 1 to 8 points, with fifteen issues losing from 8 to 25 points. Both the industrial average and the railroad average declined to new low ground for the year, the industrial figure dropping $10.91 a share for rep- resentative issues and the rafl average being down $2.55. Simultaneously May wheat broke be- low $1 a bushel, the first time dollar wheat has been witnessed since 1923 and the first time the May option has gone so low since 1915. Bonds broke with the stock market, and Igsses extending to 15 points were forced on the curb. -Bank stocks broke in the over-the-counter trading. Chi- cago stocks were down 1 to more than 6 points in active selling. Selling was done on a large scale, gathering momentum until the close, and tickers were forced to run 35 min- utes after the final gong hed rung. Margin calls were noted, and not a little of the unloading was necessitated by cleaning out. of poorly margined accounts. 670 shares today, compared with 3,811,- 750 a week ago. Call money ruled at 6 per cent and was at 542 per cent outside the stock exchange. Nevertheless, this ease had only temporary effect. Traders were expecting a money pinch at the month- end, and many were convinced the Federal Reserve Board would raise its rediscount rates at principal centers this week. The market opened irregular, but price changes were narrow and the ma- jority were higher. After milling about in quieter turnover than the lethargic Saturday session for the first half hour, the market turned definitely downward. Around noon an avalanche of selling hit the floor..Steel common was whirled down, and with it General Electric. In- dustrials went to new low ground by the dozen, rails followed, coppers sank, Oils lost ground, but less than the oth- ers; chemical shares, farm implement Stocks, motors, radio shares and steels were forced down point after point un- til the whole list was demoralized. But the widest breaks were confined to the high-priced shares, and no wide- open smash occurred elsewhere. The majority of coppers sank to new low ground for the year or longer, in- cluding Andes, Magma, Inspiration, Greene Cananea, Cerro de Pasco, Phelps Dodge, Butte, and Granby. Among the motors hitting new lows were Nash, Hupp and General Motors. Mack and Chrysler came near their lows.

May wheat was submerged to 98% cents on the Chicago Board of Trade, a drop of 2% cents from Saturday’s closing price and the lowest price for May delivery since September, 1915, when a sale at 93 cents was recorded. Six years ago cash wheat sold at 96 in July. Wheat today was for sale at prices 50 cents a bushel less than a year ago and more than 30 cents under the peak of the season in February. Since then wheat has been on the toboggan, the skids greased by an almost immovable surplus of the commodity left over from Jast year’s enormous North American crop. That surplus remained the prime fac- tor in the glutted market. Every price reduction and freight rate cut here has been met by competing prices in Can- ada and the Argetnine, and prevailing estimates today held that 330,000,000 bushels would be carried over at the end of this crop year throughout the world. The immediate factor today was the weakness of the Liverpool grain mar- ket and a contributing cause was rain in the Canadian wheat belt, insuring & favorable start of the spring wheat crop. Already the haryest is under way in the American Southwest, beginning new competition with the old crop in storage. Other grains slumped, too, and while wheat closed 244 to 2% @3 cents below Saturday’s finish corn finished 2144 to 2% cents down, oats % to 1% cents lower and rye 1% to 3% cents lower. The close for May and July wheat, 985, and 1.01%, respectively, was the low point of the day. May delivery closed at 93 and July delivery at 95 cents in Kansas City at 99% and 1.01, respectively, for the two months at Minneapolis and at Winnipeg May wheat closed at 1.10% and July a cent higher.

Dietz Near Death, Others Believed Hurt in Fight ‘Near City. | VICTIM Another mystérious Maryland shoot- ing affray, closely resembling the recent gang-war clash in the unsolved Green Gebles murder at Suitland, early yes- terday morning, sent at least one vic- tim to a hospital with critical wounds suffered at Prince Georges Inn on the Queens Chapel road, just beyond the District line. William Dietz, 35 years old, of 1915 Sixteenth street northwest, last night lay in Sibley Hospital here with dan- gerous bullet wounds in his stomach, his groin and his left leg after a rain of lead from the weapons of unrevealed gunmen had sent a merry party of revelers scurrying to shelter. A blood transfusion was performed in an effort to save his life. Dietz maintained a grim, sullen ant or assailants and to give any inkling of events leading up to the in- cident. Close on the heels of the shoot- ing came information to Police Lieut. Arthur W. Hepburn, of Prince Georges County, that a woman had been seen clutching her side in apparent pain on rushing out of the inn a few min- utes after the fusillade. She had not been located by Prince Georges authorities, nor had other members of the party of more than fif- teen women and twenty men, who parked at the roadhouse about 2 or 2:30 o’clock, A gaping hole in a win- dow and a splintered door gave mute evidence of the intensity of the shoot- ing that may have wounded others-in the crowded hall.

But that was a rumor. Col. Lindbergh and Miss Morrow ob- tained their marriage license several days ago from John Manason, at the office of the Englewood Board of Health.. Their witnesses were Gen.

At all events, the aviator who couldn’t give up his penchant for prac- tical jokes even during his epochal re- ception in France put across a good one today. No sign that anything of mo- ment was happening in the Morrow home warned reporters. It was not un- til a gentle-voiced secretary told the press that “Mr. and Mrs. Dwight W.

CALLES ALSO IN DARK Mexico City, May 27 (AP.).—The United States Embassy’s first knowledge of the wedding of Col. Charles A. Lind- bergh and Miss Aune 8S. Morrow was furnished by the local bureau of the Associated Press. The personne] seemed much surprised that the event already had taken place and declared that they had been in entire ignorance of the date and place selected, although the romance had its inception here and the engagement was announced from Mexico City. sont Many other friends of the couple in riage and were expecting it to take place in mid-June. At almost the exact hour of the wed- ding former President Plutarco Elias Calles was denfYing press reports that he would be a witness at it. He ap- parently was not aware that it then was taking place, but assured reporters that both the aviator and his bride “are persons of my highest estimation.” Bride Popular in Mexico. Miss Morrow had become extremely popular among both Mexicans and Americans of the capital during her long periods of residence at the em- bassy. Col. Lindbergh has been popu- lar in the country ever since his good- will fiilght from Washington to Mexico City in December, 1927. When the engagement was first an- nounced, their many friends here, in- cluding government officials, had hoped that the wedding would be held in Mexico, but it was understood that the aviator preferred to be in his native land. President and Mrs. Emilio Portes Gil recently purchased a painting, “Mexican Flowers,” by Alfredo Ramos Martinez, director of the Mexican School of Arts, as a wedding present. The brevity of the marriage announce- ment recalled that the engagement was announced here by imbassador Mor- row on February 12 in equally simple manner. Paper correspondents to his study and handed each a 30-word typewritten an- nouncement, declining to amplify the bare statement of facts. Colonel Arrives Soon After. The colonel arrived here unheralded within a fortnight after the announce- ment. It was during this ten days’ visit that he and his fiancee suffered a mis- hap at the coyclusion of a picnic flight. Loss of a landing wheel caused the plane to overturn, breaking some parts on landing, but the thoughtfulness and skill of the pilot enabled Migs Morrow to escape unhurt. Lindbergh injured his shoulder but made quick recovery. The day after the accident he gave Anne a taste of “army medicine” when, while able to use only one arm, he took her up in a borrowed plane several times to remove any fears of flying that the mishap might have engendered.

LINDGERGH ROMANCE LONG LEFT WN DOUST as to His Choice of Two Morrow Sisters. WON HIS BRIDE IN MEXICO New York, May 27 (A.P.).—A qulcet young man who “isn’t a bit senti- mental and doesn’t care for girls” spent Christmas of 1927 as the guest of Ambassador Dwight W. Morrow in Mexico. The fact that his flight to Paris the preceding May had idolized him in the hearts of feminine America had served only, perhaps, to make him. all the more retiring—even to the point of bashfulness. But in the seclusion of the ambassador’s home, near the capi- tal of a nation whoee traditional ad- jective is “romantic,” he found refuge from the plaudits of the world and be- came again, even if temporarily, private citizen. In this setting he met the diplomat’s 22-year-old daughter, Anne, pretty and brynette, who had been, graduated from Smith College the preceding June. Charles A. Lindbergh, whose para- mount interest is. aviation and who dislikes to talk about anything else, found that she, too, was intensely in- terested in flying. Soon the colonel was taking her for short filghts. He returned to the Mor- row home whenever possible, and they went for strolls or drives together through the picturesque country. Rumors of a romance for the calm young colonel began to float about. At first they were undecided whether to attach to Anne or her elder sister, Elizabeth. Along in November the odds beyan to lean toward Elizabeth, whom Lind- bergh had met at the same time he met Anne, and who, it was pointed out, was the more sober of the two and hence more the colonel’s “type.” But in Mexico City they still thought Anne would be the future Mrs. Lind- bergh, despite all denials. When Lindbergh took off from Valbuena Field last November for the United States, he gave Anue a beautiful—and daring— aerial salute. She was at the field with her famfly, and Lindbergh, after climb- ing to a little height, circled and dip- ped low over her head. Some three months later Ambassa- dor Morrow, who previously had re- minded inquiring newspaper men that the matter was, after all, rather per- sonal, announced the engagement. Former President Plutarco Elias Calles, a friend of the young couple, was delighted to learn the news. His Gaughter Ernestina (Mrs. Thomas Arnold Robinson), who had been one of the first to suspect the romance, merely remarked, “I told you 60.” Ginger Ale Blast Blinds Man’s Eye Employe at Brentwood Cut on Face and Arms by Bottle. Obie H. Smith, 27 years old, 1120 Twentieth street northwest, an em- ploye of the Conoy Spring Water Co., Brentwood, Md., was seriously injured and lost the sight of one eye, early last night when a bottle of ginger ale ex- ploded in his hands at the factory as he was bottling. Smith was placed in his own auto- mobile to be brought to a Washington hospital. The automobile reached Rock Creek Church road and Park place northwest, where it broke down. He was taken on to Garfield Hospital in the patrol car of the Tenth Precinct and was treated there by Dr. Thomas Kelly for the cuts about his arm, face and eyes. Later Smith was removed to the Episcopal Eye, Ear and Throat Hos- pital, where physicians made an un- successful effort, to save .the sight of his eye. Stores to Close Memorial Day.

PLIERS AT BOLLING EN ROUTE 10 Pent Pinillos and Zegarra, Whose Nonstop Hop Failed, Are Returning Leisurely. HOP FOR SOUTH THURSDAY Capt. Carlos M. Pinillos and Lieut. Carlos Zegarra, Peruvian aviators, land- ed at Bolling Field at 3:05 yesterday afternoon on the first leg of a good- will flight which will take them through all the capitals of Central America, to Lima, Peru. Capt. Pinillos said last night that they expected to leave Washington early Thursday morning, their next stop being New Orleans. From New Orleans, he said, they would take a leisurely course to Mex- lco City and from there through Cent- ral America to the Peruvian capital. They are flying the green and orange Bellanca monoplane in which they recently failed to make a nonstop flight from Lima to the United States. They were met a Bolling Field by Hernan Velarde, Ambassador of Peru, and Senor J. Alvarez de Buenavista, first secretary of the embassy. Their fellow countrymen escorted them to the embassy, where they will be dur- mg their brief stay here. When their flight was announced several weeks ago, it was made clear that Pinillos and dZegarra . would attempt to establish no new records or to accomplish any spectacular flight. Their trip, it was indicated, was purely & sporting one. Capt. Pinillos is piloting the big Bel- lanca, while Lieut. Zegarra is acting as navigator.

America. Mallon Mum on Vote Leak; Senate Sure to End Secrecy Call; Committee Quiz of Reporter Fails to Elicit Source of Roll Democrats Overrule Moses’ Adjournment; Report to Be Framed by Next Tuesday. (United Press.) Victory for publicity of Senate ex- ecutive sessions was Virtually assured by the climax yesterday in the Mallon case. Former foes of open executive ses- sions in the Senate rules committee failed to pry from Paul R. Mallon, chief of the Capitol staff of the Umited Press, his source of information for the Len- root roll call, and then admitted that the ancient artim’ rule must be aban- doned. Failing to get Ma®on to reveal his source, the committee decided at an executive session later to act, and to act promptly. ‘ Five minutes after members stream- ed away from the tiny council room, where they had quizzed Mallon in vain, and subsequently held their executive session, the committee chairman, Sen- ator George Moses (Republican), New Hampshire, stood up at his place in the Senate and asked, by unanimous consent, that all proposals for publicity be referred to his committee, where he promised quick action. He announced the committee would meet and begin work today. Advocates of publicity are in the ma- jority tn the Senate. Some of them feared the coming Senate recess might prevent early action and got from Moses an amendment to his unanimous consent agreement requiring a report to the Senate by next Tuesday. The agreement then was adopted. The New Hampshire senator, long a foe of open executive sessions, revealed how significant he considers the whole procedure by telling the Senate it would “pass into history as the Mallon case.” The procedure yesterday was not an “investigation.” At the very outset Senator Smoot (Republican). Utah, challenged the authority of the com- mittee to investigate the matter with- out an order from the nate. Moses then announced that the committee would stand adjourned, to,meet again today. ’ Senators Harrison, Mississippi; Swan- son, Virginia, and McKellar, Tennessee, Democrats, advocates of publicity, ob- jected, pointing out that Mallon had been called and should b2 questioned. Moses put the question to a vote and was overruled. For 45 minutes mem- bers quizzed Mallon, their inquiries ranging from those attempting to re- veal his source to theoretical questions revolving about newspaper “ethics.”’ Resignedly, Moses announced to the Senate afterward: “I think all members at the meeting of the rules committee will agree that the inquiry was fruitless.” “It was the plain consensus at the executive meeting of the committee,” he added, “that one of two results will flow from this matter: that press representatives will be barred from the floor of the Senate, which has already taken place, or that an amendment to the rules will be adopted, and I am in- structed by the committee to ask that all pending resolutions for amendment of the rules relating to secrecy at ex- ecutive sessions be referred to the rules committee.”’ Proposals for Changes Varied. from those providing publicity of roll calls and debate to complete publicity. The belief is genera] that a modifi- cation of rules is certain. Senator Washington, Republican whip, notice on the Senate yesterday he weuld press vigorously for The Maillon case, which started it all, haz been dropped as the result of yesterday's futile committee session. The hearing yesterday was the cen- ter of interest at the Capitol, but a large crowd which had gathered early wus unable to get in to watch the pro- ceedings because the inquiry was helc- in the small council room of the rules committee. There was hardly enough room for the large number of news- paper correspondents who gathered to write the story. “Public” Present Limited.

She sat Bickel before ‘She officials. a senatorial chatting with Mr. meeting began. When Mallon appeared in the com- mittee room for the meeting, he. was greeted with applause from the group of newspaper correspondents. The United Press reporter, who is 28 years old, is known to every senator. The roll call on the Lenroot case was the second he had secured, the other being on the confirmation of Roy O. West to be Secretary of the Interior. Chairman Moses called the commit- tee to order and Mallon took his place in the witness seat at one end of the table. Reporter Reads Statement. He asked permission first to the following statement: “I am advised by counsel that I am not obliged to appear before, be sworn by or testify to this committee on the ground that this committee has not authority to subpoena me before it or require me to answer any question. “The United Press, to which I am directly responsible, believes the public welfare can best be served by making all news quickly and easily available when it is in the public interest to do so. Therefore and notwithstanding any lack of authority of this commit- tee I am here to answer questions if I can do so without violating any con- fidence which I may consider has been reposed in me elther directly or by custom of the press. “I am authorized to. state that the United Press desires to aid in this and any other investigations by the com- mittee in consonance with its duties to the public, but neither the United Press nor I conceive it to be my duty to reveal any confidential communica- tions made to me. “This statement is given with all pos- sible deference to this committee and each of its members and I am ready to answer questions within‘the limit which I have just stated.” Mallon then was sworn. Committee’s Authority Questioned. Smoot raised the question of the committee’s authority, saying he did not believe the committee had power to proceed, but must first get authority from the Senate. He pointed out that it was necessary to get Senate sanction in such cases as the Teapot Dome in- vestigation and others. Moses then adjourned the committee, only to be overruled by protests from Democrats, and the inquiry proceeded informally. Mallon was asked if he was‘the au- thor of “an article that’ appeared in The Washington Post on Tuesday, May 21, 1929, and on the first page of that paper, entitled ‘Roll Call of Senate on Lenroot Revealed,’”, He replied in the affirmative. He waS then asked to re- veal the source of the information on which the article was based. He de- clined. ae Books Wanted Highest Cash Prices paid for entire libraries or small lots of good books.

POCKET VETO LEGA HIGH COURT RULING Unanimous Decision by Body Upholds Validity of Bill Practice of President. MOVE IS ON INDIAN CASE. (Associated Press.) The validity of pocket vetoes by the President was upheld in a unanimous decision handed down yesterday by the Supreme Court, regardless of whether the legislation in question.was sent to the White House in the closing days of a session which was not the final ses- sion of a Congress. The court, in an opinion summarized by Justice Sanford, construed the word “adjournment” in the constitutional provision relating to vetSes as meaning the end of any.wcongressiona] session as well as of a Congress. It held that Con- gress, before ending a session, must give the President the ten days granted him by the Constitution to act on bills passed or else assume responsibility for the failure of those on which he does not act. The case in which-the decision was rendered involved the Okanogan and other Indian tribes in Washington, which had failed in an effort to have the Court of Claims hold that a pocket jveto had not killed a bill relating to claims hele by them. Added importance had been attached to it, however, in view of other legisla- tion which had been accorded pocket vetoes, including the Norris resolution for Government operation of the Mus- cle Shoals project in Alabama. Yesterday’s ruling was contrary to the views of the House judiciary commit- tee, which was heard in the oral ar- gument through Representative Sum- mers, of Texas, one of its members. Sen- ator Norris, chairman of the Senate judiciary committee, and a number of other congressmen took the view that the Constitution only killed those bills on which the President had failed to act at the close of the last session of each Congress, and had,no effect. on bills in the hands of the President when other sessions ended. For many years it has been the prac- tice of Presidents, supported by the opinions of their Attorneys General, to treat as dead the bills in their hands remaining unacted upon at the close of each session of Congress. Justice Sanford, in the opinion, re- viewed historically the controversey Over pocket vetoes and emphasized the? failure during a long period of years of any one to test in the courts the va- lidity of the construction by various Presidents. He concluded that Congress had acquiesced in the practice. He pointed out that the constitu- tional provision was specifie which re- quired the President to return measures to Congress with his reasons for dis- approving them, and declared that when Congress, by ending a session, re- fused to allow him the ten days pro- vided in the Constitution for him to consider and act on all bills, it had sealed the fate of those upon which he had not acted when the hour of ad- journment arrived. Congress could not say to the Presi- dent that he could proceed to take the full ten days, he continued, and then notify some officer of the House or Sen- ate of his veto of a bill after Congress had ended the session, because his veto |. could only be sent, the opinion stated. to one of the two Houses while it was in session. Friends of Government operation of the Muscle Shoals plant had insisted that the failure of former President Coolidge formally to veto the bill had the effect of making it law without his signature. Mr. Coolidge received the bill in the closing days of a first session, less than ten days prior to its adjournment, and giving the customary construction to the provision of the Constitution “un- less the Congress, by their adjourn- ment, prevent its return” to mean an adjournment at the end of any session. took no action whatever on it. The decision yesterday sustained that con- struction by holding that the word “adjournment” used in the Constitu- tion meant the adjournment at. the end of any session of Congress.

OURWIMMIER 3 BARRING 19 UPHELD Supreme Court, Three Jus- tices Dissenting, Refuses to Give Woman Citizenship. ARMS BEARING QUESTION (Associated Press). Declaring “whatever tends to- lessen the willingness of citizens to discharge their duty to bear arms in the coun- try’s defense detracts from the strength and safety of the Government,” the Supreme Court yesterday reversed two lower courts and denied citizenship to Rosika Schwimmer, of Chicago. Mrs. Schwimmer, a inguist, author and lecturer, was born in Hungary in 1877 and came to America in 1921. In her petition for naturalization, answer- ing the question, “if necessary are you willing to take up arms in defense of this country,” she said, “I would not take up arms personally.” The court, speaking through Justice Butler, with Justices Holmes, Brandeis. and Sanford dissenting, declared, “the duty of citizens by force of arms to defend our Government against all enemies, whenever necessity arises is a fundamental principle of the Consti- tution. Duty Shirking Is Seen. “Their opinions and beliefs as well as their behavior indicating a disposi- tion to hinder in the performance of that duty, are subjects of inquiry under the statutory provisions governing nat- uralization and are of vital importance, for if all or a large number of citizens oppose such defense the “good and hap- piness’ of the United States can not long ‘endure.” Justice Holmes, with Justice Brandeis concurring in his view, observed Mrs. Schwimmer “seems to be a woman of superior character anti intelligence, ob- viously more than ordinarily desirable as a citizen of the United States.” Holmes Agrees With Woman. Noting Mrs. Schwimmer believes the Constitution might be improved, Justice Holmes said: “I suppose that most mtelligent people think that it might be. “Her particular improvement looking to the abolition of war seems. to me not materially different in its bearing on this case from a wish to establish cabinet government in England, or a single house or one term of seven years for the President.

SLUSH QUIZ DEFIANT IN In a unanimous opinion yesterday the Supreme Court further buttressed the Senate's inquisitorial powers by holding that the Senate was within its rights in issuing a writ of arrest for Thomas W. Cunnimgham, of Phila- delphia, after he twice defied the Sen- ate slush fund investigation by refus- ing to tell where he got the $50,000 he contributed to William S. Vare’s sena- torial primary campaign in 1926. | As a result, Cunningham, an $8,000 }@ year court clerk, long a lieutenant of the Vare machine in Philadelphia, must surrender to the sergeant at arms of the Senate, and, if he continues to refuse to answer, he will be subject to indictment and prosecution for con- tempt, like Harry F. Sinclair, the .oll magnate, now serving his 90-day term in the loca] jail for this offense, and, lItke Col. Robert W. Stewart, former chairman of the Standard Oil Co. of Indiana, whom a jury acquitted of this charge. Cunningham was indicted once, but the Circuit Court of Appeals quashed the indictment. The Senate probably will give him a third chance to tell the sour€e of the $50,000 before pro- ceeding toward a new indictment. In passing, the court refuted the contention of Vare’s supporters that in refusing to seat him, the Senate de- prived Pennsylvania of its constitu- tional representation. Court Bars State Tax On Exempt Securities (Associated Préss.) The Supreme Court also decided yes- terday that States were prohibited from requiring corporations and others who pay annual excise or franchise taxes for the privilege of doing busi- ness to include in their net income. aS a measure of the tax, interest re- ceived from Government, State and municipal tax exempt securities. The MacAllen Co. of Massachusetts brought the case which resulted in a decisioa declaring that interest from such 5e- curities was exempt from all taxation, and could not be used as part of a measure for a privilege tax. The court consented to review a case considered of great importance by the railroads of the country. The contro- versy involves the rule to be applied in determining their liability for ship- ments lost in transit. Railroad Asks Loss Rule. The Illinois Central had asked the highest tribunal to decide the amount of its liability for coal] belonging to the P. McCoy Fuel Co., lost while be- ins shipped from Royalton, Il., to Minneapolis, and the request will be granted. The Pennsylvania and 4 large number of railroads joined in asking the court to pass on the sub- ject, declaring it of great importance to have a definite rule laid down for the settlement of such claims. The court refused, however, to pass on the question asked by the Court of Claime whether municipalities could be requii d to pay sales taxes on automo- biles and motorcycles purchased for their official use. The court held the Court of Claims must decide for itself, because to answer the question would decide the cese. The question reached the Supreme Court from the Court of Claims where the Indian Motorcycle Co. of Spring- field, Mass., contended the Govern- ment should refund taxes it had been required to pay on motorcycles sold to Westfield, Mass., although the munl- cipality had paid the tax and was not seeking to recover it, the motorcycle company insisted that the Federal Government had no right to impose a tay on merchandise purchased by a municipality for its official use. The controversy will ultimately reach the highest tribunal after the lower court acts.

¥ TTA KING SIS: TREATY WITH POPE | | Long Controversy of Vatican and State Government Officially Ends. CITY GOVERNOR INDUCTED | Rome, May 27 (U.P.).—King Victor Emmanuel today signed the Lateran Treaty, which establishes the sovereign- ty of the new papal state and thus ends the long, once bitter controversy between the Holy See and the govern- ment. With the publication in tomorrow's official gazette of the treaty text, Vati- can City—as the papal state has been named—will come into existence, Sv fur as the government is concerned. Formal ratification will be exchanged later. Commander Camillo Serafini was in- formsiiy installed as governor of the Vatican City today; after the king had signed the accord. He conferred with the heads of vari- ous departments in connection with or- ganization of civil services along the). lines laid down by a commission which Was appointed after the Lateran pact was signed. The Pope will be temporal head of | the Vatican territory which comprises the new city—or semiindependent state, as it is really regarded. Italy would reserve, and exercise, sovereignty over the territory only in an emergency. The Pope will issue his own stamps and money. , Within a few’ weeks the Pope is ex- | pected to leave Vatican territory in| recognition of the renewed friendship | with Italy, the nation. No Pope has left the Vatican since 1870, when the head ‘of the Roman Catholic Church was shorn of all but spiritual authority, and Italy assumed sovereignty over church territory. Governmental and Vatican repre- sentatives will confer soon to decide methods of exchanging ratifications, which will seal the treaty as a historic ’ document. Parliament ratified the treaty week. AUTOIST ATTACKS BUS DRIVER AFTER CRASH CONTINUED FROM PAGE l. last gerstown, Md., met it, and the drivers prepared to exchange buses. As th met in the road to.pass the time of day, the auto driven by Jasko col- lided with the northbound bus. Jasko Was accompanied by several friends, none of whom was arrested. Jasko became incensed at the ob- struction to his ride and proceeded to tell Eccord what he thought of the matter. Eccord went to get police. Jasko then transferred his attentions to Burns, who was in his bus. His fero- cious aspect drove the handful of pas- sengers from the coach via the win- dows and a rear door, police say. He then proceeded to trounce Burns. Eccord returned with State police- men, who helped Burns through a back door and attempted to subdue Jasko. By this time, however, Jasko’s fighting blood was up. The melee resulted in two broken windows and a wrecked panel on the bus. Jasko finally was restrained and placed under arrest by Policeman H. H. Haines. Burns was badly bruised and cut. but not seriously injured. He took his bus to Washington. John L. Berrio, of- 1439 Seventh street northwest, was a passenger on the bus and narrowly escaped being assaulted, police say. L. A. Pilkerton, of Baltimore, an official of the bus company, also was struck eeveral times when he attempted to mediate.

Tempera- tures were exceptionally low for this time of the year and fears were felt that fruit and garden crops may have been injured by the storm. Crop damage unofficially esti- mated at close to $1,000,000 was done by hail in the upper Horse Creek region, northwest of Cheyenne, late. yesterday.

Princeton Seminary Clash f Power of Dr. J. R. Stevenson, President, Increased As School Control Is Put Under One Board by Vote of 141st General Assembly. St. Paul, Minn.. May 27 (A.P.).— Reorganization of the management of the Princeton Theological Seminary, Princeton, N. J., to put control under only one board was provided in action taken late today by the 14lst general assembly of the Presbyterian Church of the United States of America. It adopted the report of its special committee of eleven providing for set- ting up a single board to be composed of eleven of the present board of di- rectors, eleven of the board of trustees and eleven at large. | In addition the report provided for increasing the authority of the semi- nary president, Dr. J. Ross Stevenson, whose administration has been under fire by ultraconservative members of the seminary faculty and its alumnae, who have charged him with being ‘too liberal.” Proponents of the plan.of reorganiza- tion strenuously denied the assertions of its opponents that the change will have any effect on the historical theo- logical stand of the seminary. They took the position that the change will have the effect of ending a long con- troversy over .the control of the semi- nary, and that it has no relationship to differences relfiing to “fundamental- ism” and “liberalism.” More than three hours of debate pre- ceded the action of the assembly, which was taken by a rising vote with no count taken, the result being deter- mined by Dr. Cleland B. McAfee, of Chicago, the moderator. A large num- ber stood up in opposition to the motion, but it was clear thas even a larger number stood up when the affirmative vote was taken. Immediately efter the action was ane nounced Dr. J. C. Barr, of New Orleans, filed notice of protest with the mod- erator. The church reaffirmed its conviction MURDER IS CHARGED months in the House of Correction and to pay a fine of $25 on a charge of as- | sault and battery preferred by Burns. MRS.

Friends Deny Report. There also had been reports that she wished to have administrative charge of the whole unit, but this her friends deny emphatically, asserting that she had no desire to become an adminis- trative official. Such reports were cir- culated in congressional circles and were followed by talk in some quar- ters at Capitol Hill of a filibuster on the transfer legislation if the unit as a whole went into the prosecution di- vision. Appointed by President Harding in September, 1921, Mrs. Willebrandt more than once came under attack because of moves made in prohibition enforcement, more recently in con- nection with raids on New York City night clubs, and her suggestions to dis- trict attorneys that the terms of the Tecently enacjed Jones law be ap- plied only in commercial bootleg cases. Mrs. Willebrandt was one of the original Supporters of Herbert Hoover for the Presidency and was active in both the preconvention and regular presidentia] campaigns. She was as- Sailed for an address during the cam- paign before Methodist ministers at Lorain, Ohio, in which she attacked former Gov, Alfred E. Smith on the prohibition question. Refuses to Talk.

We can, as a people, by making prohibition a successful enter- prise in the United States, release in- fluences which may ultimately relieve the human race from the bondage of the liquor traffic.” The assembly also ordered the crea- tion of a commission of six ministers and five elders to make a thorough study on the subject of marriage, di- vorce and remarriage, the report to be completed for presentation at the 1930 assembly. : The, principles .of the pact and “renouncing war as an Strument of national policy” favored.

If the House conferees adopt the more conciliatory attitude the farm bill is expected to be out of the way in a few days. . Aside from the debenture the differ- ences between the two houses are not serious. The House will probably gladly accept the Senate amendment increasing the size of the farm board thereby giving relief to more farm re- lief agitators than the House had origi- nally planned. The limiting of the chairman’s salary instead of leaving it within the discretion of the President, a limitation made by the Senate, is not looked upon as a serious difference, and the President is said not to be greatly interested in whether the salary is limited or not. There will quite likely be surprise in some quarters that the President is agreeable to a three-months’ recess with a final determination of what the tariff is to be and is not to be post- poned until early in November. Some- how the impression had gone out that he was opposed to deferring the settle- ment of the question this long be- cause Of its possible adverse effect on business. Business could not make its plans as long a® tariff uncertainty existed, it was contended. There is hardly any more uncertainty now, however, than there has been since early last year when the political campaign got under way, and a pos- sible party afivantage in postponing its enactment until November is that it will shorten the time that it has to $102.50, taken from a room in the building yesterday. operate before the Republicans have to answer for it in the congressional] elections of 1930. The delay figured from this viewpoint is insignificant, of course, but the prospects are that the Republicans will need every bit of as- sistance they can get. There is nothing definite on which to base the impression that the Presi- dent was opposed to a delay, but it existed in certain quarters neverthe- less. However, if he was, the Congres- sional leaders could probably have con- vinced him that.a tariff could not be passed before early November, recess or no recess. Woman Files Divorce Sulit.

GOVERNMENTS PLAN | WAR DEBTS PARLEY Experts Are Paving Way De- spite Failure to Fix Re- parations Sum. onweat® THEIR REPORT DELAYED By ALBERT W. FOX. Assurances have reached diplomatic circles here that the committee of’ ex- perts at Paris will have accomplished enough by their labors to pave the way for a conference of governments on reparations irrespective of whether the experts succeed in ironing out remain- ing controversial questions. Even if the expert§ fail to agree unanimously this will not prevent recommendations of far-reaching importance from being made the basis of discussions between the interested governments, including the United States. It appears, therefore, that the dis- quieting reports from Paris relative to the final delibe: tions of the experts are not causing particular - concern here, especially as it has been under- stood that final recommendations would in any event be delayed. e prediction that the experts’ re- port would be delayed by some means or other until after the British elec- tions on Thursday will be borne out, according to latest advices. The British experts themselves, acting under the rsuasive communications from the ritish government, have realized that Great Britain hoped to see any definite decisions postponed until after the elections. Schacht Favors Postponement. Dr. Hjalmar Schacht, chief German delegate, has had reason to favor post- ponement because of the possibility that a labor victory in Great Britain might soften British reparations de- mand. The diplomats here have for geveral weeks frankly stated that they expected no report until after the Brit- ish elections. The work of the committee of ex- perts will be preliminary rather than final in bringing about an ultimate solution of the problem. These experts, acting as private individuals and not as representatives of governments, will simply recommend what they regard as ® proper basis of discussion for the governments concerned. A unanimous report by the experts would presum- ably facilitate the work which the government representatives must un- dertake after the experts are through. In other words, if the experts agree among themselves and set a definite figure for the total amount of German reparations to be paid and also recom- mend definite plans of payment, the conference of government representa- tives will have a fair chance of pro- ducing definite results. But it is by eR a tema MITCHELL AID | Associated Press Photo. JOHN LORD O'BRIAN, of New York, who has been named by. President Hoover to succeed Will- iam J. Donovan as Assistant Attorney General. no means certain that the governments could agree, even if a report of the experts proved unanimous. Reactions to Be Reckoned With. Popular reactions in various coun- tries which would greet the experts’ report would have to be reckoned with. No government is bound in any way by recommendations of the experts’ committee. This applies to the United States Government as well as to others. In case the experts can not agree among themselves there is no reason why they should not submit two, or even more reports setting forth those matters on which they have been able to agree and those matters concerning which agreement has been found im- possible. The governments could deal with several reports as well as with & single report by the experts and it is possible that the governments won aon agree upon matters concerning which the experts have been unable to reach accord. This agreement among the experts on controversial matters would not mean that the conference of experts had been a failure. On the contrary, this com- Saitéee of experts may render a distinct service even though an ultimate solu- tion of the reparations problem is not immediately forthcoming through their efforts. For instance, if the experts agree as to the total amount of repara- tions which Germany is capable of paying and if the German government, after investigation, concedes the figure to be reasonable, the experts will have accomplished something which has ad- mittedly been essential to any plan for on readjustment of European sta- ity. THE WASHINGTON POST: TUESDAY, MAY 28, 1929. DAY IN CONGRESS | FYPEATS WILL SCAN NEW WAR DEBT DAT Computations Are Expected, to Revive Fading Repara- tions Hopes. — SCHACHT FAILS TO YIELD Paris, May 27 (A.P.).—Technicians worked through the night on computa- tions that the experts of the repara~- tions conference tomorrow may use them to give new life to the negotia- tions. Owen D. Young and his staff today gave new vigor to the committee, which was considered mortbund at the end of last week, by examining with other experts a new possibility of 4 way out of the deadlock between the Germans and the allies. The operation most favored takes the form of new calculations as to what the annufties originally proposed by Mr. Young would yield if they began at other dates than April 1, -1929, which was the basis for the original calculations. The experts tonight would not reveal what the new dates were. The creditor experts still insist that payments under the Dawes plan ought to continue at least until the end of this year. Dr. Hjalmar Schacht holds to his demand that they cease with April, 1929. The difference in actual payments between the two points of view would be about 630,000,000 marks (approxi- mately $151,200,000). The creditors re- lied on this additional sum to enable them to agree on a reparation of pay- ments among themselves which would ties. Since Dr. Schacht rejects this view, # is necessary to find some way of recon- ciling the divergent opinions. It is hoped that accountants may elucidate the situation respecting the present value of the annuities and their final yield m such a way as to enable the creditors to make conces- sions to Germany.

Senator Black (Democrat), Alabama, introduced two bills for the disposition of Muscle Shoals power plant after the Supreme Court had upheld a presi- dential pocket veto.

Senator Heflin (Democrat), Alabama, ‘introduced a letter containing an ac- count of a plot to assassinate him. Senator Fletcher (Democrat), Florida, introduced a bill authorizing $10,000,- 000 to pay fruit and vegetable growers for damage done by the Mediterranean fruit fly. Paul R.

Met at noon and adjourned at 6:05 to noon today. there will remain in the way to agree-- ment only two of the German condi- tions, those as to suspension of repara- tions payments in case of economic difficulties in Germany and the right to, call for a new conference to revise any decision now taken. Both these conditions have largely dropped from the discussion during the past two days, indicating that they did not furnish the major difficulty. The question of redemption of Ger- man marks imposed on Belgium durimg the war has been unofficially put up to Belgium and German governments in the hope that they will be able to settle it between themselves and re- lieve the experts of this difficulty.

The decision of the United States Su- preme Court sustaining the validity of ‘*nocket vetoes” disposes of the fantastic attempt to make laws of bills which have never been signed by the President. The ‘court gives effect to the plain meaning of ‘the Constitution, which probably never would have been questioned if interested parties had not hoped to obtain legisla- tion in spite of the President. Thus perishes the Muscle Shoals bill, ‘& measure which was pocket-vetoed by President Coolidge. The chief begetter of that proposal to make the Government a fertilizer and power peddler was ‘Sena- ‘tor Norris, of Nebraska. He convinced ‘himself, after profound introspection, ‘that the Constitution did not mean what it said when it provided that a bill not 3igned by the President or returned by him with his objections did not become law. Mr. Norris adopted the opinion that the word “adjournment” does not mean adjournment when applied to the énd of any session of Congress except that which terminates a Congress. All that remained was to convince the Su- preme Court that he was right. . Unfortunately for the cause of social- ism and for the legal prestige of Mr. Norris, the Supreme Court disagrees with him. It must have been impressed by the novelty of his construction of the Constitution; but like many other novel inventions, it lacked all virtue except novelty. The threat of Government competition with private enterprise in the manufac- ture of fertilizer and power at Muscle Shoals is removed by the Supreme Court’s decision. Congress should now go ahead and make some useful disposi- tion of that great plant. If the Govern- ment can get out of the shipping busi- ness it can get out of the manufacturing business at Muscle Shoals. As proprie- tor it can lease the property to some re- sponsible party, with suitable safeguards ‘that will insure revenue and provide for forfeiture in case of default. The busi- ness ability of Congress is disparaged by the failure to make suitable disposition 2° Muscle Shoals. Now that its mistake in passing the Norris resolution has been made harmless by the Supreme Court’s decision, there is no reason for making ,any further excursions into the realm of socialism or communism in dealing with Muscle Shoals. - ~s PLENTY OF CREDIT. The Federal Reserve Board, throughout its ““overex- campaign to force a reduction of tended”’ brokers’ loans, has stressed the fact that it has no interest in stock market activi- tles except in so far as they may restrict the eredit available for industry. At no time has the board said point-blank that such a situa- tion exists. Unprecedented activity in the stock market, it said, threatens to create such a situation, and’for that reason it has felt it advisable to attempt to influence a reduction in brokers’ loans. On Sunday the Federal! Reserve Board made public a general summary of business and financial conditions for April and a prelimi- phry report for the first half of May. The re- port indicates that industrial activity increased during April to the highest level on record, and factory employment and pay rolls increased contrary to the seasonal trend. Preliminary reports for the first half of May indicated a continued -high rate of operation in the iron and steel industry, while the output of lumber and bituminous coal was somewhat larger than at the end of April. The iron and steel and the automobile industries were exceptionally active during April, and the activity in copper refining, lumber, cement, silk and wool, and meat packing increased. Production of cotton textiles showed a less than seasonal reduction; the output of mines was larger than during the preceding month. _ Even in the construction field, said to be a. most affected by a scarcity of credit, activity / tmereased in April.

Apparently enough credit is available in the country to meet the needs of both market operators and industrialists, markets LINDBERGH-MORROW. The country is delighted with the romance | 9f Col. Charles Lindbergh and Miss Anne Mor- | whose marriage was celebrated yester- The enterprise of the press in trying to satisfy public curiosity concerning the young couple forced them to conceal their plans to some extent, and the marriage occurs rather earlier than the public had expected. But the 2arlier the better in this case, when chivalry and beauty are happily mated, and with no tircumstance to warrant a postponement of the great event of their lives. Col. Lindbergh has been one of the most useful forces in the United States in stirring beys and young men to emulate his character and achievement. The feat that astounded the world could not have been performed by a youth of dissolute habits, flightiness of will, or After Lindbergh had shown his courage and skill he revealed splen- qualities of manhood in remaining un- spoiled, temperate, punctual and industrious. He is America’s proudest exhibit of young man- hood. His bride is a lovely young girl whose studious mind and sweet nature also furnish to the world an admirable type .of American youth. May this happy young pair find in each other the devotion and strength of soul that carry loving mates safely through all vicissitudes of life. AIRPLANE ENDURANCE. The record-breaking fiight of the monoplane Fort Worth serves to focus attention upon the progress made in the development of aircraft. [Twenty-five years ago, man reckoned his occa- sional flights in terms of minutes. Gradually the cruising limit of airplanes was increased, and when Lindbergh completed his historic flight to Paris the duration of flights was reckoned in terms of hours. The Question Mark flight was reckoned in days. The flight of the Fort Worth extended four hours over a solid week. In 25 years the airplane has been developed from a toy into an agency of transportation possible of sustained utiliza- tion exceeded only by ships of the sea. The Fort Worth was a rebuilt ship, pow- ered with an engine purchased second hand that had been in service at least 500 hours preceding the record-breaking venture. When Reginald Robbins and “Jim’’ Kelly took off about 11:30, a week ago Sunday morning, they: said they would stay aloft until the motor failed. When they came down about 4 o’clock last Sunday evening, more than 172 hours later, the motor still was hitting regularly, but the propeller was dented and cracked sufficiently to cause vibration. The flight failed to demonstrate the limit of en- durance of the modern aircraft motor, but it proved that there is need of a more durable propeller that will withstand the battering of rain and nail without losing its ‘‘balance.’’ The Fort Worth now holds all records for sustained flight. Robbins and Kelly, by their feat, eclipsed the best mark for single-mo- tored, dual-motored and tri-motored planes, and for lighter-than-air ships, and all records for crews, regardless of size. NOBODY WILL STARVE. A corporation was organized abroad a few months ago for the purpose of reclaiming the | the | Sahara Desert. The plan contemplates closing off of low-lying areas, and their inun- dation, not only for irrigation purposes but also to bring about increased rainfall over.the whole desert. Those interested in the project hold the belief that the world will eventually face a shortage of food supplies, and that the great cost of reclaiming the Sahara would be as nothing cOmpared with its value if trans- formed into a productive area. A statement issued recently by Dr. O. E. Baker, economist in the Department of Agri- culture, contradicts the idea that a food short- age is probable. Dr. Baker contends that farm production is not only increasing despite the drift of rural residents cityward, but also that the United States by 1940 still will have 500,- 090,000 acres of potentially cultivable land— an area greater than the total of cultivated land at the present time. The tractor and other intensified methods of agriculture, he says, have caused the increased production, aud he does not believe it will be found neces- sary to expand the net farm area of the coun- try for another decade, at least. The world need not worry over a food short- age. It may easily be demonstrated that the sustenance of an individual at the present time requires a farm area of a certain size, and this figure may be juggled to prove, apparently, that when world population reaches a certain figure, the specter of famine will make its ap- pearance. But no one can foresee how large a farm area will be needed to sustain one in- jividual in, say, 1940, because no one knows to what extent productivity will be increased through more efficient methods. Europe and northern Africa have large areas that are already cultivable, without need of such vast expenditures as would be re- quired for the reclamation of the Sahara. Better methods of cultivation, and not greater acreage, will solve the future food supply problem, RAIL MERGERS SPEEDED. ast Tuesday President Hoover said: ‘I am confident that there will be no increase in railroad rates as a result of the O’Fallon de- cision.’’ This sentiment is shared by leading railroad executives, and consideration of the Status of the railroads ieads to the conclusion that there will be few moves looking toward increased rates. It is significent that most of the roads have not been earning the 5 3% per cent allowed by the law upon their pres- ‘ent valuations and that, notwithstanding, the This resume of business | | taxes, | classifications and duties, | authorized to change, if necessary, the method | | from | of | Tariff Commission. |.wholly composed of one party. THE WASHINGTON POST: tendency has been The roads have learned that they can charge | no more than the “traffic will bear,” and with the threat of increased bus and airplane com- | | petition they will continue to be governed by | ' “what the traffic will bear’ in making their | rates. The practical result tory in the O'Fallon case is yet to be demon- strated. the contention of the carriers eration must be given to the reproduction cost along with all other pertinent facts, add- ing that ‘‘the weight to be accorded thereto is not the matter before us.’’ Obviously, fur- ' ther court action will be needed to determine how much weight is to be given to reproduc- tion cost, and even when this is decided it does not seem likely that increased tariffs will fol- low. oe The effect of the O’Fallon decision on the recapture clause of the railroad law is of greater importance. This provision was adopted because it was found impossible to lay down a basis of rates that would afford weak lines revenues sufficient for their needs without giving strong roads in the same terri- tory more than an adequate return. Earn- ings of the strong roads in excess of amount permitted by the law were ‘‘captured”’ by the Interstate Commerce Commission to be applied in helping out the weaker roads, and with the valuation of all roads increased there will be considerably less in the ‘‘captured”’ fund. The strong railroads will benefit as a result of the O’Fallon decision if it results in a general increase in valuations. The decision, therefore, promises to play an important part in speeding action on the pro- jected railway trunk line mergers. The weak roads are economically necessary, and must be preserved. Any general increase in rail- road valuations will weaken their financial position, and it will be found necessary to con- solidate them with the stronger carriers for their preservation. President Hoover’s left eye was blackened in a collision with a twig during last Satur- day’s fishing trip, his tackle failed to arrive until after nightfall and his car got stuck in the mud on the way home.

Voice Training Badly Needed, No Matter What You Call Ie. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Am letter from Ada Louise Townsend to your dramatic editor., She refers to the well-known prejudice against the term “elocution.” The dictionary defines is good of bad. But in some way the word has become associated with those who use precise and stilted enunciation through bad teaching. So the term now preferred by dramatic readers is the word, “expression,” which, however, is too broad to be definite. I want to comment especially on what Miss Townsend says of the rather prevalent idea that a trained voice is not natural. The main point here &, what do we mean by the term, “natural?” beings; a child has to be taught to talk, and he speaks in the language of his teacher. So with this in mind that speech is not natural the only question is, what kind of speech is preferable? I had occasion recently to call a man, a stranger, over the phone to make an appointment; the quality of the voice responding reassured me. I knew my interview would not be an ordeal, as PASSE-PARTOUT TRAINS. France first and French colonies still more need some kind of a car which can be loaded at a farm or factory and Carry its load. straight to where it is wanted—without unloading or reload- ing by the way. Loading and unload- ing run up the price of living and of raw materral and of manufactured i goods, says the Boston Herald.. A means has been invented and ex- periments with it have been going on ever since 1925. Now, it seems, some- thing has been found that will work. They call it ‘the passe-partout that is, a train that passes pass. It is made up of motor cars or trucks that go on railway tracks or on roads, or even across country and on and off from one to the other. . Grain, potatoes, hay ‘are loaded at the fields where they grow and carried to the highway and so on to the railway tracks’ and market, or steamer dock 'without being once unloaded or re- loaded. This new freight car even trundles onto a ferry boat—and off again on the other side. From start to finish, the same car brings the load to its destina- tion. The car has to be a motor car that will run on metal tracks as well as on good roads or improvised roads across fields. For several cars together rn one train there must be something to guide their movements, since they move to- | gether, particularly. round curves and corners. The motor car which has. been adopted is, of course, very much lighter than ordinary railway locomotives or cars and it runs on rubber tires. On curves of 25 yards radius it makes a speed of from 35 to 40 miles an hour. Its steering apparatus on tracks has to be changeable for something differ- ent to the conductors’ hand. All this, it is claimed, has been done with success. This independent steering is for veri- table trains of several cars. These new Cars can always be run on roads by two's or three’s by a steering conductor just as tractors and trailers are now run, Grazogen cars, in which the motor burns charcoal instead of gasoline, are run in such short convoys by numerous factortes which have adopted them in France. The chief advantage of the new in- vention is its adaptation to farm load- ing which often has to be done some distance from railways—and the same for mines and factories. It gives the opportunity, particularly in the French colonies, to build cheap roadbeds with cement sleepers—for these cars are not heavy—and to penetrate new territory. ATLANTIS. Every now and then Atlantis, the supposed lost continent, comes into the news. Recently a French explorer and archeologist, Dr. Marcel Baudoutin, found sculptured forms on a rock ledge usually submerged but which is uncov- ered, it is reported, by very low tides. Dr. Baudouin believes his discoveries to be the work of the possible in- habitants of the somewhat legendary continent of Atlantis. The facts about Atlantis, according to Webster’s New International Dic- tionary, are as follows: “A mythical island in the west, be- yond the Pillars of Hercules, mentioned by Plato, Pliny, and other ancient writers, and said to have been sunk be- neath the ocean by an earthquake. It was possibly an obscure trawition of the existence of a western continent.” You may have heard, too, of the new Atlantis. This is “an allegory by Lord | Bacon, and the name of an island de- scribed in it as being situated, like the Atlantis of the anclents, in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Bacon repre- sents himself as wrecked on this island, and as finding there an association for the cultivation of natural science and with some persons who make you feel as if a nutmeg grater had been rubbed up and down your spine. If good train- ing can improve a voice, let. us have It, whatever name you call it. a HINDA BURKS. Paraguayan Charge d’Affaires Insists That Bolivia Is Making Warlike Preparations in the Chaco. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: I have been somewhat surprised to read in this morning’s edition of The Wash- ington Post an editorial on the Para- guayan protest regarding the move- ment of troops and other warlike pre- parations on the part of Bolivia in the Chaco, apropos of an attempted de- nial by the Charge d‘Affaires of that country, Don George de la Barra, and I would: appreciate it very truly if you would be so good as to take into con- sideration the following explanations: Early this- month a technical com- mission detatfed by the Paraguayan Government to determine the geo- graphiacl location of Fort Vanguardia, for the purpose of complying with a re- quest of the Commission of Investi- gation and conciliation meeting in Washington, was fired on by Bolivian troops posted in that region. The fire was not returned by the Paraguay- an patrol which was escorting the aforementioned commission. Desirous of making the most of this little incl- dent to her own advantage, Bolivia hastened to protest that. Bolivian troops had been the object of a Para- guayan “aggression.” The protest was made before the Commission of Inves- tigation and Conciliation, on the sixth of this month, if I remember correctly. The Paraguayan Government, through its delegation, denied any such aggres- sion and faithfully related what had happened; the aggression had in real- ity been on the part of the Bolivians, Some days later, May 13, the Para- guayan Government made formal pro- test to the same commission regard- ing the very evident military prepara- .tions that Bolivia has been making in the Chaco, and even specified the names of the units being moved. This led the Pan American Commission, of which Brig. Gen. McCoy is chairman, to make strong recommendations to the two countries concerned that they abstain from any acts which might provoke a dangerous situation in the Chaco, at the same time warning them that any advance which either of the Please print this open letter to James | minded to add a thought to the clever the term as the manner and method .. of speaking, not specifying whether it | Speech is not natural, even for human i parties might make into the affected a region would not benefit that party at the expense of the other. My Government's protest regarding Bolivia’s warlike preparations was made before the Pan American Commission, the proper organ for such a protest, and was founded on the most abso- lute certitude, as my Government has authentic proofs of the facts against which it has protested. te At the same time that Bolivia was |addressing the improvements in the arts.” Or a Consumer.

The League transmitted a copy of the Bolivian protest to my Government and the latter defended itself in the same way as before the commission under the chairmanship of Brig. Gen. McCoy. From this it will be seen that it was not my govern- ment that took the initiative before the League, but Bolivia herself. PABLO M. YNSFRAN. Charge d’Affaires of Paraguay. =

THE WASHINGTON POST: TUESDAY. MAY 28, 1929. NEW SUSPECT HEL ~ 4N575.000 HOLDUP Dr. Garey Is Given Title of Emeritus MORE BEAUTIES FOR CONTEST PUBIAISM CHARGE CONFRONTS O'NEILL — Woman Starts Suit Against St. John’s College Honors. President Who Will Re- | sign on June 5. Special to The Washington Post. | | ae 4 Oklahoman Identified as Man' Famous Author of “Strange Interlude.” SIMILARITIES ARE CITED New York, May 27 (N.Y.W.NS.).— Eugene O'Neill was accused today of stealing the plot of his phenomenally successful play “Strange Interlude.” Miss George Lewys filed a $1,750,000 plagiarism suit in Federal Court against Mr. O'Neill, the Theater Guild, and Horace Liveright, who published the piay under his former firm name, Bon! & Liveright. " In 1924 Miss Lewys privately pub- lished 995 copies of a novel called “The Temple of Pallas-Athenae.” She says she wrote its 140,000 words seven, years previously, when she was 19. It sets forth the girl's idea that the human race should be improved by “selective paternity.” The novel tells of an American heiress married to an aristocratic French rake, who discovers that her husband's fam- ily has a hereditary streak of insanity _On the advice of an older woman sh? ‘selects one Adonis as a “perfect” man to father her child; and though they have agreed not to call in love they do 60. Play Has Similar Incident. A similar incident is at the center of “Strange Interlude.” Miss Lewys claims that O’Neill pirated her book, and in an interview she cited some minor points of similarity. “The Temple of Pallas-Athenae” sur- vived Federal prosecution in California on an obscenity charge. Later in a New York raid John S. Sumner seized sev- eral copies which were on sale at $29, but the case was not pressed. Mr. Sum- ner’s main objection was to a frontis- piece drawing-of Ted Shawn as “The Perfect Man.” Miss Lewys’s complaint states that she submitted the book to the Theater Guild in 1924, with a synopsis of a pro- posed dramatization, and that she sub- mitted it to Mr. Liveright’s publishing house in 1925. 3 The Theater Guild had nothing to say today. Mr. Liveright said he had never heard of “The Temple.” Mr. O'Neill’s whereabouts are unknown. He was last heard of in China. Lawyer Ridicules Suit. His attorney, Harry Weinberger, is- sued a statement that “apparently the mark of distinction of a successful play is that some one claims plagiarism,” and that “Mr. O’Neill’s standing as a dramatist is sufficien answer at this time.” He thought it strange that the suit should be brought only after the play had been running for sixteen months. : Miss Lewys is the author of a dozen books, mostly poetry and privately printed. Her “Epic of Verdun” was presented to France by the late Ambas- sador Herrick, and she is going abroad shortly to be present when a copy of it is placed in the Verdun monument when it is dedicated next month. The originality of O’Neill’s nine-act play contributed largely to its winning of the Pulitizer prize last year. Most unusual was its use of long asides, “interludisms,” telling the thoughts of the characters. Miss Lewys compared these to chapters in her book which deal with the thoughts of the char- acters. Airplanes to Be Used By Norwegian Whaler On its initial expedition this year the newly organized whaling company, “Kosmos,” of Sandefjord, Norway, will use airplanes for observation purposes in locating whales. Should the results come up to expectations, it is believed airplanes may be accepted quite gen- erally in Norway in whaling and also in general fishing. Capt. Riiser-Larsen and Capt. Lutson- Holm have been engaged to accompany the whale cookery steamer Thorsham- mér with two planes. Both aviators are internationally known in connec- tion with the Amundsen expedition. A whaling film may be made by Riiser- Larsen.

ASHES PROVE HOT CLEW Oklahoma City, May 27 (A.P.).—The ‘arrest in Hutchinson, Kans., of Mrs. Minnie Rayl, prosperous widow resid- ing there, and recovery from her pos- session of part of the loot taken in a here last Friday, led today to identifi- cation of a man held as a suspect in the robbery. A sum of $19,207 fo." 1 in the woman's automobile was ide @ fied aS a portion of the robbery gli’ .- last night, being apprehended while motoring On a Hutchinson street. C. W. “Doc” Thompson, 42, proprie- tor of a drug store at Seminole, Okla., and a brother of Mrs. Rayl, was identi- fied by W. D. Criss, taxicab driver, as the man who shot Charles H. Vowell, messenger for the bank, in the arm, and escaped with a bag containing the money. Bob Thompson, 23, the elder man’s foster son, and Mrs. Bob Thompson, being held for questioning. Criss, who chased the car in which the bandits escaped until it was lost in traffic. could not identify the younger man. The two men were arrested at Seminole Saturday night and Mrs. Thompson was brought here today. Charles Becker, chief of police, said that ashes, analyzed in fiction detece tive style, were responsible for Mrs. Rayl’s arrest and the recovery of a portion of the money. Acting on a tip that suspicious ac- tions had been observed in an apart- ment house here, Becker and assis- tants went to the house Sunday and found a quantity of ashes in a stove. On the theory’ that the ashes mignt have been from wrappers in which the stolen currency was contained, they burned some wrappers and found the ashes seemed to be identical. Ques- tioning the owner of the apartment heuse, Becker found that a woman, driving a car with a Kansas license tag, had been about the apartment house for several days. Mrs. Rayl was arrested by Hutchia- son police soon after a description had been broadcast to towns along the road leading to Kansas. Police said Mrs. had rented the apartment. Becker said BoD Thompson has a po- lice record in Kansas City. Thompson Man Exonerated in Attack. After fifteen minutes’ deliberation, a jury acquitted William R. Spitzer, of 627 I street southwest, yesterday before Chief Justice Walter I. McCoy in crim- inal branch of the District.

a ee ee FOREIEN CITIES SEEK AOTAY CONVENTION Clash With Memphis Expect- ed Over Move to Meet Outside of America. 9,000 FLOCK TO DALLAS Dallas, Tex.. May 27 (AP.).—Dis- cussions of decentralized control legis- lation occupied voting delegates today as the busy hum and din of this city was increased with the arrival of more than 9.000 delegates to the twentieth annual convention of Rotary Interna- tional. Airplanes, -sixteen special trains and hundreds of automobiles unloaded their burdens In Dallas today. Thirteen resolutions were presented at a legislative meeting this afternoon. One, offered by the British delegation, urged abandonment of the slogan “He | Another | said that the “1931 or 1932 convention | profits most who serves best.” shal] be held outside of North America.” The latter resolution was expected, when presented at the general conven- tion, to draw the oppositon of Mem- phis, Tenn., which is making an active fight for the 1931 meet. San Sebastian, Spain, and Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, also are under consideration. Still another proposed change would give the aims and object committee of Rotary International direct responsi- bility for Rotary education, discontinu- ing that activity as one of the duties of the local clubs. The Delegation from Italy proposed a resolution making clear the relation of a Rotarian to his country. It was said to have been a result of the visit of President I. G. Sutton, of Tampico, to Rome when the Vatican withdrew all previous objections to the membership of Catholic clergy in the organization. The arrival of delegates at the Union Station was a colorful pageant. Carry- ing a giant model of the liberty bell, 125 Rotarians from Pennsylvania rolled into the station. Each delegate wore a small button bearing a picture of the bell. The larger bell is to be placed on exhibition at Fair Park. The New York delegaton, more than 150 strong, arrived shouting greetings to their candidate for president, Ray- mond J. Knoeppel, New York lawyer, who has been in Dallas several days. As part of their program tomorrow, the Rotarians are to greet R. L. Robbins and James Kelly, fliers who ended an endurance record-breaking flight at Fort Worth yesterday, as well as the pilots of ther refueling plane.

Before grafting in new. bone, Dr. J. Torrence Rugh, of Philadelphia, cut away a dis- section of the spinal column bone.

Cross winds and rain toward mid- Atlantic today caused another day's delay in the proposed filght of the Green Flash to Rome. Lewis A.

It was not believed that the French plane, Yellow Bird, would start, but final decision rested with Armeno Lotti, sponsor of the flight to Paris, who flew to New York today the better to observe weather reports. No work was done on either of the large monoplanes. The Green Flash remained in the hangar and the Yellow Bird rested on the sands outside.

New York, May 27 (N.Y.W.N.S.).—The Southern Star, which will seek to set a ‘new long-distance nonrefueling record ‘in a filght from Tampa, Fia., to San Cold Springs, N. Y.. May 327 (N.Y.W.N.S.).—Martin Morrison, police- man, of the New York Central Rail- road, risked death today by leaping into the path of the Montreal Flier, speed- ing toward New York at a mile-a-min- ute clip, to snatch Miss Beatrice Eustice, of Highlands, from the tracks at the grade crossing here. About 250 early commuters saw the rescue. Miss Eustice, daughter of William A. Eustice, justice of the peace and pe ete leader of Highlands, N. Y., was Rurrying across the tracks to catch a New York bound local, then pulling into the station, as the Montreal Filer amproached on another track in the same direction. Morrison was standing in the center of the express right-of-way. He threw his arms around Miss Eustice and dragged her back toward the North- bound express tracks, out of the way of danger. The flier was then only a few yards away and the bell at the crossing clanging its warning that an- other express was approaching Cold Spring crossing. Unaware of her peril, Miss Eustice struggled with Morrison, who held her tightly as the Montreal Flier roared Diego, Chile, will leave Mitchel Field tomorrow for Washington, where those aboard will secure passports. From Washington the plane will go to Day- tona Beach for weight tests and will then proceed to Tampa. Harold E. McMahon, of the Curtis Flying Service, will pilot the plane, which is equipped with two Jupiter motors. John Montgomery, of Inter- national Airways, owners of the ship; Henry Bertaud, mechanic, and Hubert Huntington, navigator, will be the oth- ers aboard. The present long-distance nonrefuel- ing flight record was established by Ar- turo Ferrarin and the late Carlo del Prete, who flew from Rome to Touros, Brazil, a distance of 4466 miles, last July. From Tampa to San Diego is} 4,900 miles. Chicken Pox Hits Liner. New York, May 27 (A-P.).—Three cases first diagnosed as smallpox on the incoming North German Lloyd Line Dresden today, later were pronounced by public health service officials to be nothing more serious than chicken pox, past a split-second later. A projecting iron bar from the train tore the Sam Browne belt from Morrison's body and the handbag from Miss Eustice’s hand. The belt was thrown many feet along the rails. Miss Eustice did not require medical attention. The commuters cheered Morrison, who remained on duty, ready for any other emergency. Widow of John T. King Is Dead at Bridgeport Bridgeport, Conn. May 27 (N.Y.W. N.S.).—Mrs. Eleanor J.. King, 51 years old, wealthy widow of the late John T. King, former Republican national com- mitteeman and a power in politics under the Harding administration, died at 3 o'clock this afternoon from in- juries received last Thursday when her car was struck by a jitney bus operated by Arthur J. Hoch, 22, of this city.. Hoch is held under bonds of $1,000, charged with causing loss of life by careless operation of an automobile.

Comdr. H. V. Wiley, of the U. §. Navy dirigible Los Angeles, and assault with intent to kill the 41 members of the crew. For a while it looked black for Han- kins. He had a separate jury, com- of men and women of the Sus- sex County countryside, for each of the three charges and he plainly in- timidated when he took the witness stand to give the explanation that he Was just “cutting up.” * The charges were the outcome of an incident on September 6, 1928, when Hankins was making “whoopee” with Some friends and the dirigible Los An- eles was beatifig its way to its hangar rom a rainy cruise through a fog. » Hankins and the four other young men became tired of shooting at a target in a Layton back yard and Han- kins suggested that they go deer hunt- ing.

Wiley testified that the Angeles frequently had holes in her bag after cruising trips, but it was ver known what caused the holes. » “I Just felt good and wanted a ride so I fired my gun three times— y into the air, mind you,” testi- Hankins. The cut-up also said that he waved Ris hat, shouted, screamed, jumped up @nd down, waving the gun and his arms, and performed other antics as the huge vessel passed slowly overhead.

The theory has become almost a universally accepted practice; that there is no play until the audi-. ence becomes part of it. In the National Theater, lawst eve- the audience entered so completely into :he play and became so wrought up over it, that "twas almost ruined. Yet, “The mystery plays extant. When Fulton Oursler and Lowell Brentano got their heads together over this comedy concoction they finally came out of conference with as novel a bit of mystery as ever found its way to the boards. On the premiere per- formance in New York, “The Spider” actions. When the Players essay this worthy opus they do so under the greatest handicap pos- the audience—and yet they manage to work out from under a burden of difficulties. The old observation, made by some theater student years ago now suffers a jolt. The audience becomes too much a part of the play; or, at least, did so last night. However, it is doubtful if any audi- ence in the world could remain cool, calm and collected when a murder takes place in the auditorium—right before their very eyes. There is a vaudeville show going on at the mo- ment; in the Tivoli Theater. Chris Arth and his fellow musicians come out of the pit. and render an overture; render it right. They play “A Precious Little Thing Called Love,” heard usual- ly only over the raddio. Then, the Hoffman-Hoskins Jazz Girls make their bow, the first time patrons of tHe National Theater Players have come face to face—or is it face to face?— with chorines; nimble-footed, scantily clad lassies who trip the light fantastic in the grand manner of the revues. The City Club Duo—a Dbanjoist and a singer of so-so songs—then takes up the burden. Finally, with a _ great huzzah, “Chatrand, the Great,” the master magician enters, and forebod- ings of ill permeate the theater. This man Chartrand is a mind reader, and he has with him a medium. The audi- ence here gets\a chance to pull out watches and lockets and old family papers, for publie examination. It seems that Chartrand steps on danger- ous ground, in the description of a locket handed him by a young lady. Her escort becomes peeved, pleads, tries to persuade Chartrand to desist— desist is the word; but, the magician is determined. As he is about to di- vulge some family secret, the lights go out, a shot is fired, and there ‘s consternation in the theater. Immedi- ately, a spirit of pandemonium comes erashing down round the ears of de- cent, law-abiding citizens. Gendarmes march down the aisle, two abreast, to arrest everybody in the theater. It is, to say the least, nerve-racking; but that is all that can be said, at this time, since “The Spider” is a mys- tery play and anything more about it would result in arrest and imprison- ment. Perhaps even this suggestion goes too far. Who shall say? The old stand-bys in the cast, and the young, too, make of “The Spider” a Roman holiday—and if there are those who have not yet been won by the suaveness of manner exemplificd i'man plays the medium. . others to mention.

INDIANAPOLIS TRACK WET Indianapolis, Ind., May 27 (A.P.).— Myron Stevens, of Los Angeles, was slightly injured at the Indianapolis motor speedway late todey while prac- ticing for Thursday’s 500-mile automo- bile race when his car, out of control, turned over a half dozen times after Skidding badly in the first turn. Aside from a possible fracture of the right arm and a bruised foot, physi- clans at the hospital where Stevens was taken said the race driver appeared to have escaped injury. It was said he would be kept at the hospital over- night for observation. Stevens blamed his accident on a puddle of water, but officials of the American Automobile Association said their investigation disclosed there was no water on the course at the point where the accident occurred. Drivers were kept from the track most of the day because of rain, and had only been permitted to practice a few minutes before Stevens’ mishap. A speedway attendant at the point where the car began to skid said something appeared to go wrong or else the driver, new to the track. “cut in” too quickly and threw the car into a skid. It slid toward the inner retaining wal] and turned over just before crashing against it. Stevens was thrown clear. The car rebounded from the inner wall and turned over repeatedly until it was ——- to a stop against the outer wall. Only one driver attempted to qualify his car today, and he faited in the ate tempt when the motor went dead on the second of the four laps required. Nineteen cars were qualified last Satur- day and yesterday. With more than twenty cars await- ing favorable weather to make the test, Officials announced that trials would be permitted all day tomorrow. “_.. because you love nice things” a aid | Ss Sree rTLy TAILORED and Smartly Snug For sports clothes and town wear, Van Raalte favors tailored lines — even in the Singlette, that efficient one- piece solution of all your underwear problems.

, now BEHIND THE SCREENS THE WASHINGTON POST: TUESDAY. MAY 28, 1929. | ——_———~» mm By H. f With NELSON 8. BELL ' 4 It will be a comfort to those who have worried about the scant width the musical comedy pictures are able to impart to the stage shown upon the Silver sheet to know that the wide- @ngle screen is on the way. ' Word comes to this column of a demonstration in New York last Fri- @ay night of a new photographic and projection system of three-dimension ¢inema that has been worked out in the R. C. A. Photophone studio under the supervising eye of George K. Spoor in association with J. John Berggren. Mr. Spoor. one of the inventors, is an Old timer in the film game, having been the first syllable of the old Es- Sanay Co. of which “Broncho Billy” Anderson was the last. The new process, I am given to be- Reve, is based upon the idea that two ,@yes are better than one. The motion picture camera used by Messrs. Spoor and Berggren, in other words, is equipped with two lenses that are able to record an image on a strip of film | considerably wider than the standard- ' ized form now commoniy employed for, the commercial celluloids. The projec- tion of the finished picture also is/| through a new type*of machine vastly unlike the projectors with which the booths of the country are crowded. This increased range of the camera's eye, necesSarily, has occasioned the employment of a screen six or eight, or perhaps ten, times the size of those in use. I understand that the one used for experimental purposes in New York last week was 30 feet high and 52 feet wide. It is said that the ideal dimensions for a perfect repro- duction of scenes and action, life size, | are about 20 feet larger still in each direction, making a screen approxi- mately 50 feet by 70. From this may be gathered the ex- tent of the alterations in both taking end projecting pictures in our theaters that must follow a general adoption of the new plan. It is now, of course, in its primary stage and as time goes on will be improved until eventually it will be within the easy grasp of every exhibitor—much as sound devices are being made available today. The effect of the wide-angle photog- raphy is said to be startlingly realistic and to lend-the pictures a depth and true perspective they have never before essed. Whereas the present method is such as to make a half dozen play- ers appear to crowd the pictured stage of a theater, the new enables a line of 24 chorus girls and boys to appear side by side, life size, even on the 52- foot screen. It won't be long now! _ It seems to me it would be a swell elegant idea if the picture house man- agers in the downtown theaters would instruct their organists not to feel around on the pedals and manuals of their instruments in an endeavor to find the key and the harmonies of musical numbers being presented on the sound mechanisms. Saturday afternoon the effectiveness of more than one screen feature was spoiled for the good one of my ears by this apparently futile attempt to aid the artists playing and singing from the screen. I haven’t yet de- termined what the idea was, but its only tangible result was not s0 elusive —the house was filled with dissonances overfiowing from the organ chamber. At least let the experimenting be done while the house is dark instead of during a performance before an au- @ience of paying patrons. Mr. D. Dickerson, a field operative with a long and honorable experience in the films to his credit, has just Gropped in from the Middle West and South, in the order named, to tell me @ great many important things about “The Pace That Kills,” a topic upon which I have never deemed myself wholly deficient. - To Mr. Dickerson’s mind, however, the vital consideration at the moment ig that his “powerful drama of modern youth” will open a ten-day engagement at the Strand Theater on Thursday of this week, Decoration Day. The subject matter of the picture Is said to be such as to engage the in- terest of more than one Government department, not to mention a con- siderable number of those sittmg in Congress, and Mr. Dickerson, therefore, is making arrangements for a more or less private preview of his opus tenta- tively set for tomorrow. If my phone rings, as I momentarily expect it to, more of this anon—or can't you get here then? While this desk does not flatter itself that it had anything to do with it, it is noticeable, nevertheless, that at least part of the suggestions recently made in an open letter to Maj. John Zanft, vice president of Fox, in charge of theaters, have been acted upon. Although it was formerly by no means the case, during these latter weeks the artists engaged to appear in the stage shows at the F Street Cathedral have been given a chance to do-their stuff to an extent that has enabled the audi- ence to arrive at some cefinite notion of their worth. This week, for exam- ple, everyone is permitted to take as many encores as ‘audierce enthusiasm seems to warrant—and on Sabbath aft- ernoon that was plenty! jshould be, for I do not know of anyone |'who with any surety cai step out afd i'wow the cash customers unfailingly, given no greater opportunity than. one | two-minute “bit.” As a matter of fact, 1 have seen such a consummate artiste as Elsie Janis open cold as ice, only, to leave her au- dience lying limp in the aisles at the end of 20 minutes. We thank you, major, whether we had anything to do with it or not—the stage shows at your gorgeous temple are much improved. Speaking of the Fox. Hardie Meakin, counselor on public relations—which is nothing but lofty leghorn for press agent—is weeking in New York City, pestering Sime Silverman, editor and publisher of Variety, his other boss, and such of his playmates In the racket as he can nail on Broadway. During his absence, Mr. Meakin’s ex- tensive telephoning is being done by Miss Irene Weber, executive secretary of the Fox local offices, an arrange- ment, by the way, that I find—but you wouldn't care about that. This is as it | It wasn’t my fault. How are you go- ing to know where to. plant flower seeds if they don’t come marked whether for the front yard or the back?

He (uncomfortably )—Well, it’s er, it’s a board—ahem—it’s a group of men who, er, who, well it’s a kind of round table of big men who have charge of the Federal] Reserve. She—What’s the Federal Reserve? He—It’s a reserve controlled by the Federal Government. You know what a reserve is. She—lIt’s a place where deer are kept. He—Something like that, except that in this case it is a place where money is kept. When the banks want money they go to the reserve for it. It’s very simple. She—But what's the Federal Reserve Board got to do with the stock market? He—The board fixes the discount rate. She—What'’s the matter with the discount rate? He—Nothing. She—Then why does it need fixing? » * + * He (desperately)—It fixes the rate in the sense of/ setting a rate. The whole question of credit is wound around the discount rate. She—How? He—Well, its all mixed up somehow with the question of brokers’ loans. Now when . She—What are brokers’ loans? He—You see, when I buy a stock on margir’ my broker has to pay for it outright, and to do this he has to bor- row the money and pay intérest. The interest he has to pay depends on the rediscount rate, added to the gold re- serves, and divided by che unfilled ton- nage or something. Now the rediscount rate is all up to the Federal Reserve Board plus the question whether Secre- tary Mellon will resign. She—But who are the members of the Federal Reserve Board? He—Gen. Dawes, Dwight Morrow, Flagpole Kelly and the four Marx brothers, I think. Mr. Wickersham is the chairman—no, I’m thinking of the crime commission. Now what these men want to do is to curb speculation. She—But why? He—So there will be no wheat sur- plus and there can be a radio in every home. She—What’s the wheat surplus got to do ‘with it? He (too far over his head to be coher- ent)—It’s the wheat surplus that causes THE ONCE OVER A PHILLIPS the Florida fruit fly and when the fruit fiv is let loose it strikes at the two things most dear to the American heart.

— A re i ee ‘+ Raising Big * Submarine on Air Tonight Commander Ellsberg Will Tell of Gambling With Death Under Water— Roosevelt to Talk; Prize Music to Be Given. _— An unusual broadcast will be pre- eented by the, Eveready Hour when Commander Edward Ellsberg, U. S. N., author of “On the Bottom” well per- sonally give the radio audience a dra- matic version of incidents of his much discussed book. Commander Ellsberg was in charge of the work of raising the submarine S-51, sunk in 132 feet of water off the Rhode Island Coast. Gambling with death nearly every min- ute of their perilous job, the Navy’s divers had a series of experiences any one of which would have made the average individual want to stay on shore the rest of his life. | A torch that would shoot a white- hot flame away down in the Atlantic; a hose that would spout water under water—the development on the scene of these remarkable inventions made the raising of the sunken submarine possible. Commander Elisberg, himself, developed the underwater torch that would cut through steel and went down to try it. A feature of the broadcast will be the rendition by the Eveready Hour Orches- tra of an original tone poem written for the occasion by Nathaniel Shilkret. The composition will be personally con- ducted by Mr. Shilkret and is dedicated to the heroic crew who raised the S-51. The program is scheduled for 8 o'clock. A short talk by Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt of New York will preface the Soconyland Sketch to be heard through WRC at 6:30 o'clock. The story of the battle of Saratoga will follow. Rube Bloom’s $5,000 prize composi- tion “Song of the Bayou,” will be fea- tured by the Prophylactic Orchestra and trio under the baton of Gene Rode- mich at 7:30 o'clock tonight. In modern theme style, the composition is a rhythmic picture of the threatened flooding of the Louisiana lowlands, with negro prayers and dances suggested in the first two movements. A sudden break in the middle makes way for human voices rising in a plaintive and im- pressive spiritual calling upon the Creator to “take away the darkness and rain”; a return to the rhythms of the first part winds up the composition. John Philip Sousa’s “U. 8. Field Ar- tillery March” and his “Sabres and Spurs” are featured by the Eskimos, under the direction of Harry Reser, in an Army program at 9 o'clock. The United States Navy Band will also use a Sousa march, “The Liberty Bell,” to start the program at 7:15 o'clock tonight from the Sylvan Theater. The opening number will be followed by the “Tannhauser” overture, after which Sullivan's “Lost Chord” will be heard, played as a cornet solo by Ralph Ostrom, chief cornetist of the band. ther selections include Mancinelli’s rch Triumphant,” Waldteufel’s “T,"Estudiantina,” Meyerbeer's “Shadow Dance” from “Dinorah” and De Luca’s “Athens the Beautiful.” “Anchors Aweigh” and the “Star-Spangled Ban- ner” will, as usual, bring to a close this program that follows Frederic William Wile’s talk on “The Political Situation in Washington Tonight.” The Paul Whiteman Hour will be/| figure “10” is heard from Chicago at 8 o’clock to- | ing? night through WRC.

During the hour Adele Vasa will sing the Bird Song from “Pagliacci.” Mme. Belle Forbes Cutter, lyric soprano, will be the guest artist of the program via WMAL at 10 o'clock. The Ransdall Sisters. and Dorothy Skinner will be featured from WOL at 6:15 o'clock, folowed by a half hour of music and “Amos ’n’ Andy.” The reg- ular Morning Hour of Music will be broadcast at 9 o'clock, after which there will be a household chat by Peg- gy Clarke and a beauty question box period conducted by Bertha Parker. The Columbia Trio will be on the air from WJSV at 9:30 o'clock, fol- lowed by the Melody Boys and the Sil- ver String Revelers. Prices realized on Swift & Co. sales of carcass beef in Washington, D.

This is a symp- tom of the change from severe lines to becoming feminine fashions. The type of dress that is being de- signed for these new materials is an- other indication of the same trend. As though fluttering and uneven drapery were not enough to tip the scate toward femininity, we use bows, jabots and tiers unsparingly. Fullness is in- serted anywhere it happens to look smart; sleeves are loosely fitted; and waist-lines are marked by tucks or shir- ring and sometimes flat bands cleverly T* new prints are soft and flatter- inserted. The two dresses illustrated here are excellent examples of the pli- ant drapd effects that are being shown this season. The frock at the left is of printed crepe de chine, with cream’ colored daisies on a navy-blue ground. The fabric used for the gown at.the right is in the autumn shades that are 580 smart this summer. Two tones of red- dish brown blend with a lovely shade of champagne-beige in one of the new- est patterns—a pen-stroked’ effect. Suede pumps that match the back- ground of the frock are worn in both cases; dark blue with the daisy pat- tern and brown with the other.

Backing the movement started by President Hoover for law enforcement, numerous governors, more than 50 mayors and other officials will be heard in a simultaneous broadcast over 121 radio stations from coast to coast at 6 o'clock Memorial Day evening. They will call attention to the necessity of law appreciation. The hour will be made ; possible through the efforts of C. A. | Earl, president of the Charles Fresh- man Co. “We have given a great deal of thought to law enforcement but little to law appreciation,” Mr. Earl said, announcing the broadcast. “If we made law appreciation a national habit we would find less necessity of thought about law enforcement. The Nation must be brought to a realization that the voters, the citizens, make the laws, not the men they elect. They must realize that circumstances make laws not laws circumstances, and that no law is so strongly entrenched that it may not be changed. “Once this becomes a part of the Na- tion’s way of thinking, I feel we will have taken a definite step toward the ideal republic.” This movement is in addition to the one recently started by William S. Pa- ley, president of the Columbia Broad- casting System, whose offer for the use of that network for a law enforce- ment series was accepted by Attorney General Mitchell in behalf of President Hoover.

The Associated Press index of 50 leading industrials was sent down 7.7 ints to a new low for the year at 1.7, which is a shade under the pre- vious low reached in the break pre- _@ipitated by the call money crisis of late March, when the index was de- pressed to 201.8. The low level reached today is about 10 points under its position at the beginning of the year. omnd nearly 24 points under the record ‘level of May 4. The decline during the violent collapse last Wednesday was 8.7 points. The drop today was surprisingly or- derly, considering its extent. The day's transactions aggregated 4,353 670 shares, about 500,000 less than on Wed- nesday. Although there was a notable absence of panicky selling, stocks failed to find any solid support right up to the closing gong. Renewed Weakness in Grain. An important factor in the decline was the renewed weakness of the grain markets, with May wheat breaking be- low $1 a bushel for the first time since 1915. Much of the selling was said to -have come from the Middle West. The critical stage reached by the reparations .conference also tended to unsettle con- fidence. In the meantime, the bull faction appeared to have been com- pletely demoralized by the continued uncertainty of the credit outlook, with the Federal Reserve banks still holding She threat of 6 per cent rediscount Tates over the market's head. The borrowing demand for stock in- Gicated that there had been a tremen- dous amount of short selling. Shorts ,found no cause to cover their commit- ;ments in the closing transactions, as 8 severe money pinch is expected shortly, what with the Memorial Day holiday currency demands leading up to the huge demands for credit incident to the “midyear settlements. Call money was again in ample sup- ply at 6 per cent, although there was a moderate calling of loans in the fore- noon. Tighter money is looked for to- morrow, however, as banks are expected to call funds for the semiweekly settle- ments with the Federal Reserve. Traders Comtetely ‘Discouraged. * Commission house advices over the Week-end generally advised a lighten- _ing of commitments, an. gave prac- “tically no buying recommendations save at substantially lower prices. _. Traders called upon for higher mar- : gin appeared completely discouraged by the repeated margin calls and complete uncertainty of credit during the past few weeks, and were giad to unload their stocks and get out of the market. ' There was practically nothing in the day's business and industrial news to justify the collapse of stock prices. Rail- Way earnings reports for April reflected the extraordinarily high level of distri- ‘bution maintained during the month There was nothing to indicate any de- ‘cline in the near-capacity operations 01. tee] mills, automobile factories, and geveral other heavy industries. The Market appeared to feel, however, that these matters had been largely dis- @ounted, and apprehensions that 4 ~gharper than usual summer decline may follow the record industrial activity of "the fore part of the year caused wide- “pread nervousness. Adams Express Off 32 Points. The widest breaks were a drop of 52 ints in Adams Express, which fell to 570. 240 points under its record price, ahd Case Threshing, which dropped 25 points to 310, a new low for the yea-, ahd 199 points under its best 1929 price. General Electric, Borg Warner, Uuited Aircraft, Commercial Solvents, and Johns-Manville, lost from 10 to 15 points. General Motors dropped more than 4 peints to a new 1929 low at 70',, and Redio sold down 5 points to 84%. U.S. rel dropped about 4 points, and the stock, traded on a when issued basis, sold down 5 points tqa new low at 163. More than 100 issues reached mew low ground for the year, includ- ing most of the coppers, and many of the rails. Kolster Radio broke nearly 8 points to 25%. which contrasts with & Tecord price of 78% earlier in the « “The commodities were generally weak. Wheat prices broke 2 to 3 cents a bushel, on reports of beneficial rains in Canada, where the crop had been threatened with drought. Corn dropped 2 cents and more. Cottoa closed easy, unchanged to 50 cents a bale lower, after an early advance in- fluenced by unfavorable weather. Foreign exchanges were fairly steady, with sterling cables moving up agaia to $4.85. The Canadian dollar, how- ever, fell to a discount of about five- gixths of one cent. NEW YORK COTTON.

This development of the mo- “tion picture industry, undoubtedly ‘means that this branch of art will be ‘closed to histrionic prize fighters, Swrestlers, baseball players and football players, which will be a victory for art and the Actors’ Equity Association. ™ It always struck me that the severest indictment of the so-called art of the silent drama in the days when it was silent lay in the fact that Babe Ruth, EW YORK, May 27.—Although >» = ~~ Jess Willard were able to master what Douglas Fairbanks calls the three fun- damental facial expressions, love, hate and indigestion, on the spur of the moment and succeed as dramatic stars. It gave one to wonder whether Miss Gloria Swanson was really a great artist or merely a lady with an attrac- tive physique, a good press agent and the luck of a blind draw. Bull Montana Made a Hit Aiming Cauliflower Ear at Camera. Of course, some of the athletic celeb- rities who become impromptu stars of the silent drama were better or less worse than ofhers. The Babe, for in- stance, was much more adaptable than Jesss Willard had been and Red Grangé heaved his chest and rolled his orbs far more acceptably than Gene Tunney could, which, in the case of Tunney, + may have been due to a feeling that rt ‘ was all very silly indeed. ' Mr. Bull Montana, the passe Greek , wrestler, enjoyed a long career during , that era of moving pictures production * which preceded the synchronization of ‘the sayings with the doings. His con- ; tribution to the drama consisted of a “Eaulifiower ear of noble size and all the roles I ever saw him portray merely called on him to aim his ear at the camera and register unconcern. But I never heard of a cauliflower ear that could speak a recitation and if Mr. Montana should attempt to speak for his ear the patrons would not know what he was saying. Beaversion of Babe Ruth to Filme Was Simple. : When Mr. Ruth was making his debut as a moving picture actor several years ago I happened to be on the set, | as I believe they call the litter of guy wires, electric power lines, carpenters’ tools and storehouse furniture com- prising a moving picture stage, and was astounded at the simplicity of the con- Version. A baseball player of indubita- ble prowess, who had never taken a jesson in dramatic art, presented him- self to a fellow who dabbed his face with yellow powder, and was ied through the confusion of the studio to meet the leading lady, a veteran of Mr. Ziegfeld’s Follies. “What does a guy have to do?” Mr. Ruth asked. “I don’t know much about acting.” “It is easy.” the director replied. “When I say ‘hug her, Babe,’ you hug her and when I say ‘look sad, Babe,’ you look like you would look if you felt sad about something.” “All right,” said Mr. Ruth, casting a certain kind of glance at the leading lady, “tell me when to start hugging.” Certain Conversational Habits Of Athletes Well Known. Mr. Dempsey adjusted himself to the hnique of the moving pictures in very little time and starred in several vehicles, but when he appeared with Mrs. Dempsey in a stage production presented by Mr. Belasco last year, the sound of a shrill, piping voice deliver- ~ eens 7444. oe @ © a % ~ a ~«“e =s 2°82 ‘A ee = @ the ing mighty threats, backed by a )ig, | hairy physique, struck the audience as comedy relief and they laughed his bi¢ moments away. I have a sense that his dramatic career is at an end unless he can have his voice made over as well as his nose. It 1s even difficult to obtain talking pictures of the athletes for the news reels owing to the nonprofessiona] de- livery of their remarks and owing, also one regrets to say, to certain conversa- tional habits. Down in Florida last spring, a talking news reel concern backed a recording wagon up to one of the ball yards and wasted much valu- able film before it was possible to ob- tain a single talking picture gf one of the athletes.

Fitzsimmons to Pro- mote 15-Round Bout | at Detroit. | ETROIT, May 27 (A.P.).—Floyd Fitzsimmons, boxing promoter, announced today that he had concligied arrangements with Joe Dundee, of Baltimore, to defend his welterweight title here July 11 against Jackie Fields, of Los Angeles. Dundee is guaranteed $50,000 for the bout, which will go fifteen rounds, the first of that length under a bill signed last week by Gov. Fred W. Green. Fields, who has been recognized by the National Boxing Association as titleholder, will work on a percentage basis, Fitzsimmons said. An arena’ for the bout had not been decided upon, he added, saying it probably would be necessary to build one, Navin, where Fitzsimmons staged some of his previous bouts has been contracted for exclusively by the Olympia Arena for its outdoor bouts this year. Routis Wins by Technical Knockout From Brown Baltimore, May 27 (A.P.).—Andre Routis, of France, featherweight cham- pion of the world, scored a technical knockout over Buster Brown, of Balti- more, in the third round of their 15- round title bout here tonight. Brown's handlers threw in a towel shortly after the start of the third round, after Brown had been knocked down three times. Brown, in the opinion of sports ‘writers at the ringside, had taken the ‘first two rounds. Routis weighed 125 1-3 and Brown 125. Hoffman Stops McTigue In 2d Round at New York New York, May 27 (A.P.).—George Hoffman, former national amateur heavyweight champion, knocked out Mike McTigue, former lightweight title holder, in the second round of a 10- round match at the St. Nicholas Arena tonight. After a slow first round, devoted to long-distance sparring, Hoffman tore into McTigue at the start of the sec- ond. Two left hooks to the body and a right cross to the jaw and the former 175-pound king was groggy. Another terrific right dropped him to the canvas. At the count of six, McTigue made a game effort to rise but feil back, completely out. The end came after 1 minute and 18 seconds of the round. McTigue’s come-back campaign thus comes to an end almost before ‘it started. ago, McTigue outpointed Paul Hoffman, of Holland, but the American member of the Hoffman clan was more than Mike’s match tonight. ; ‘Hunter Reaches Third Round in French Tennis Paris, May 27 (A.P.).—Francis_ T. Hunter, America’s second ranking ten- nis star, defeated Roger Danet, twen- tieth ranking player of France, to reach the third round in the French cham- pionship singles today. The scores were 6—0, 7—5, 6—3. The match provided some of the most severe driving of the tournament. Eileen Bennett and Henri Cochet, 1928 champions, defeated Mme. Helene Lafurie and Rene La Coste in the semi- finals of the mixed doubles, 7—5, 8—6. They will meet Helen Wills and Francis T. Hunter in the finals tomorrow. ATHLETICS BEATEN.

NEIL (Associated Press Sports Writer). EW YORK, May 27 (A.P.).—Tha: husky young veteran who still snares the imagination of the fight multitudes, Promoter Jack Demp- isey, brought the second chapter of his /box fighting career to a close with a bang today. ' Without any preliminaries or even a |warm up controvérsy, the ‘ormer heavyweight champion severed his pro- ‘motional connections with Humbert J. |‘Fugazy, announced his decision to move his activities westward, and |started a mild flirtation® with tne |powers that be at Madison Square |Garden,: his first love in the nose- ‘nudging industry. | Dempsey’s severance of relations with |Fugazy, once the foremost rival of the ‘old man mauler’s patron, the late Tex ‘Rickard, was as abrupt as his declara- tion that he is about to move upon Chicago for the promotion of bouts through next fall and winter in the Chicago Coliseum, former stamping ground of Promoter Jim Mullen. Contract With Fugazy Terminated When Promoter Failed to Get Arena Jack separated in all friendliness with Fugazy after two months of partnership in which the combination failed to secure a single match. In a statement made public by his lawyers, Dempsey said his contract became null and void when the Italian promoter faileqd to acquire a major open air arena by May 25, two months after the partnership was formed. Fugazy, the other half of the self-styled “pair of Jacks,” did not know a thing about it, | -and at first refused to believe that Dempsey had taken advantage of a technicality in their agreement. Dempsey explained that his entire connection Fugazy was based on the supposition that the Polo Grounds, home of the New York Giants, could be leased for the staging of several huge outdoor shows this summer. The Garden not only rented the Polo Grounds. but also tied up the Yankee Stadium, only other major outdoor size | in Manhattan, as well, leaving the new ‘combination with a set of ambitious | plans and no place to carry them out. Dempsey to Promote Semimonthly Bouts at Chicago Coliseum. Beginning in October, Dempsey said he would promote a boxing card every two weeks through the winter in the Coliseum. He said the lease of Mullen, one of the most promiment Midwestern promoters, expired this month. He has accepted an offer made him by the Coliseum owners. In comparison to the sudden termi- nation of relations with Fugazy, Jack’s opening of negotiations with Bill Carey, successor to Rickard as the Garden president and partner of Dempsey in the promotton of Jack Sharkey’s win- ning stand against young Stribling in Miami Beach last winter, was far more suble. He slipped away in the after- moon for a long talk with Carey, who bid unsuccessfully against Fugazy for Dempsey’s services. Dempsey refused to talk about his visit to the Garden, but wimked a loud and knowing wink when asked about it. “You must not be a bit surprised about anything I do,” he grinned. He was assured that no one would be.” | ‘Pirates Beat Cards, 10-1; Now Second in Race St. Louis, Mo., May 27 (A.P.).—The Pittsburgh Pirates slugged their way to second place in the close National League race today by taking the third game of the series from the St. Louis Cardinals, 10 to 1.

Action Against Other Members Unlikely at This Time. Oo May 27 (AP.).—The Big Ten Conference athletic eruption, occasioned by the expulsion of lowa, today had boiled don to silence and watchful waiting by member schools. Iowa Officials, professing to still be unenlightened as to specific causes of the disbarment, were preparing for an investigation and had invited Maj. John L. Griffith, conference athletic commissioner, to aid them. Griffith was to leave for Iowa City tonight. Reports of impending action against other member schools, with Northwest- ern, Ohio State, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Michigan mentioned, remained unfounded. Maj. Griffith explained no action could be taken until the fac- ulty committeee which penalized Iowa meets again and that no meeting of the body has been called. lowa Failed to Heed Previous Warnings, Says Griffith. While Iowa officials, students and alumni were professing bewilderment over the decision, Griffith declared the action ‘“‘was not the result of sudden and unexpected disclosures, but was occasioned by a situation of which there had been general knowledge for some time.” He said Iowa had been warned long ago to conform to the rules of the conference and since the order had not been taken seriously, Only one course was open. Griffith also definitely said today that Iowa’s schedules until January 1, 1930, would be completed. Should the Hawk- eyes finish at the top of the organiza- tion in football next fall they would be considered conference champions. The Iowa football schedule calls for games with Ohio State, Illinois, Wis- consin, Minnesota, Purdue and Michi- gan.

Griffith, Big Ten athletic commissioner, here tomorrow was expected by University of Iowa of- ficials tonight to clarify the reasons for the school’s ouster from the Wetsern Conference. Hope was expressed in athletic quar- ters here that revelation of the exact charges against the university might result in their rectification, with even- tual readmittance of the school into the Big Ten.

HICAGO, May 27 (A.P.).—The White Sox gave a great exhibition of coming from behind today to take both games of a double-header. A late rally gave them the opener by a 7-to-4 count, while they pulled out the second. game, 6 to 5, in a fourteen- inning struggle. The Sox came from behind to tie up the second game by Bill Cissell’s home run in the ninth inning after Earl Whitehill had let them down with one hit for the first seven frames. Each team scored once in the twelfth in- ning and again in the thirteenth to keep the battle on even terms. Thomas’ Single Drives Over Winning Run in 14th Inning.

If Beall takes his baseball more seriously than he has An the past, he has a chance of making good here, Griffith believes. He re- ports himself in good condition, ex- cept for a slightly in. cted finger on his left hand. Cronin Is Improved Player, Blossoming as Slugger. One of the most important players on the Washington Club this season is Shortstop Joe Cronin, who suddenly has blossomed out as a slugger. In his last five games against the Ath- letics, he has been at bat 18 times and cracked out 11 hits. whic: includes a home run and twa doubles. Afield, he has been charged with a number of errors, but he is going after everything which com:s his way and alséo has turned in several brilliant fielding bits. “. nT \ itcher Paul McCullough reported at the Griffith Stadium yesterday morn- ; ing and was sent to the Johns Hopkins | University, at Baltimore, for a physical |examination in the afternoon.

* VETERANS EXTENDED IN CITY TENNIS THE WASHINGTON POST: TUESDAY, — ne A I OL COL — eee - A A = A — meat MAY: Se a ee 28, 1929. TOURNAME Welsh Beaten In Two Sets By Jadd Conqueror of Consid- ine Loses by Scores of 9—7, 6—3. Charest and Mangan Extended; Latter to Meet Mitchell. ERNARD WELSH, youthful West- ern High School ranking tennis star, stepped out of the City of Washington men’s tennis. singles championship competition as swiftly yesterday as he had gained sensational recognition the day previous by elim- inating Bob Considine, District Public Parks champion. Dean Judd con- uered the boy hero in two hard- ought sets late yesterday, 9—7, 6—3. Welsh was the same stubborn youth on the courts in the first set. His older opponent brought greater stam- ina into play and finally wore down the ambitious schoolboy ace. Judd had previously defeated Del Rosio in a second-round match. All first-round men’s doubles matches will be played today accord- ing to the previously published sched- ule. Two fourth-round singles con- tests are also carded, in which Tom an and Dooley Mitchell, two of the chief title contenders, will par- ticipate. Yeoman Defeats Burwell ; Charest Pressed to Win. Youth had another good day. Pat- rick J. Deck gave the veteran former District champion, Clarence M. Charest, @ real battle before yielding in three sets. Clyde Yeomans, the North Caro- lina U. netman, showed improved form in defeating Bob Burwell in three sets, 6é—4, 1—6, 6—4. Charest scored his third-round victory by 6—2, 5—7, 6—2. Young Clyde Smith also gave Tom Mangan a close battle, although the former District champ won in straight sets, 6—4, 6—4. Maurice O'Neil, the veteran southpaw racketer, had no trouble in disposing of his more youthful opponent, Mon- cure, 6—0, 6—3. Judd Defeats Del Rosario to Earn Match With Welsh. Del Rosario fell a victim to Dean Judd in the only remaining second round match. The victory placed Judd in position to meet Bernard Welsh, the Western High School ranking star, who yesterday appeared out of obscurity to defeat Bob Considine, the District Pub- lic Parks champion. In defeating Miss Virginia Irwin, 6—0, "6—-1, in a second round match, Mrs, Charles E. former Maritime champion of vince of Canada and @ newcomer here from Chester, N. 8., furnished the outstanding ex- hibition among the women singles con- tenders. Miss Josephine Dunham and Mrs. Ruth Marinez advanced to the eee ae tare aie Sates tateabeth Miss Mary Detwiler and Miss Elizabeth Moore, respectively. Allen Steuby, Maj. J. H. Hills and Fred Doyle also withstood competition of the third round. William Seidel fel! before Saubly. Henry Staunton was the vic- tim of Maj. Hills, and Herman gave a o, stubborn ‘resistance before yield- ing in straight sets, 7—5, 6—2. MEN’S EVENTS.

ENGINEER ADVOCATES WIDER 13TH STREET Midcity and Georgetown As- sociations Also Discuss Civic Plans. ; Henry Gilligan last night received the ‘unanimous endorsement of members of the North Capitol Citizens Association fér reappointment as a member of the Board of Education. Two other citi- wens’ Organizations also met. | Mr-> Gilligan’s three-year term as a member of the Board of Education ex- in June. The resolution adopted the association will be sent to the justices of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, who make the ap- pointments to the Board of Education. The association, which holds its meet- i in the new McKinley High School, a ed until next September. Mrs. Harriet Lawless presided. Street Widening Urged. Capt. H. C. Whitehurst, coordinator and chief engineer of the District of Columbia, declared the exigencies of traffic and the growth of Washington's business district make it imperative that Thirteenth street northwest “be widened to the present width of its downtown area within the next few years, over its entire length. Capt. Whitehurst spoke before the Midcity Citizens Association at the meeting held last night in the Thomson School. Capt. Whitehurst, in explaining the efforts made by the local Government to de better streets and sidewalk ellities, declared the District of Co- lumbia spends annually less than one- tenth as much as other cities of the same size for the widening and im- provement of its streets. . L. J. Simmons was appointed chair- man of a committee composed of Mich- ae] Mahaney and Joe High to inquire of property holders on Thirteenth street northwest between Massachusetts avenue and Iowa Circle whether they favor the widening of this arterial highway between these two points, as hag recently been proposed.

Collins, of ppi, who made the principal ad- told members of the association he “would aid them in their fight to ‘obtain a number of local improve- ménts, in the next Congress. Townsend Bid Is Valid ‘Despite His Senatorship ‘4The fact that Senator John G. (To6wnsend, jr., of Delaware, is president lof the Highway Improvement and Con- ‘struction Co., will not make any dif- ference in the signing of a contract by the District for street repair work to be done by that company, it was in- dicated by District officials yesterday. - ‘The contract which has been awarded to the Delaware concern, but which has not been formally executed, was ap- proved because the bid submitted by it was the lowest one received, it was said. Under the law the District must award contracts to the low bidder un- lesa it can be proved that the bidder is not capable of fulfilling the contract. It ig not unlawful for members of the Senate to be interested financially in public contracts let by the District, it was said, although senators may not be so interested in contracts with the Fed- eral Government. Divorce Suit Charges Cruelty to 3 Children Charging cruelty and misconduct, John A. Graeber, of 31 Q street north- east, petitioned the District Supreme Court yesterday to grant him an b- golute divorce from Naomi E. L. Grae- ber, of Winchester, Va., and custody of their three children. The husband declared he was mar- ried to the defendant at Frederick, Md. on December 22, 1916. Cruel treat- ir children, the husband said, forced him to move with his chil- dren to the District in 1925. Through Attorney David A. Hart, the plaintiff charged that his wife is now living with another man, who was named corespondent. Fr oday’'s Happenings Luncheon—Washington Round Table, University Club, 12:30 o’clock.

ADDRESSES SCHOOL GRADUATE Tells Students of St. Albans Scientific Men’s Spiritual Quest Is Significant. EXERCISES TO LAST WEEK The spiritual quest by men of science and the spiritual idealism of American business in research work comprise the most remarkable development in the last 50 years, the Right Rev. James E. Freeman, Bishop of Washington, told the graduating class of St. Albans, the National Cathedral School for Boys, at its commencement in Bethlehem Chapel: of Washington Cathedral yes- terday afternoon. The office for commencement was read by the Very Rev. G. C. F.: Bratenahl, dean of Washington, the Rev. James Henderson, chaplain of St. Albans School, and Canons W. L. Devries and A. B. Rudd, of the Cathe- dral staff. Bishop Freeman reminded the gradu- ates and the entire membership of the school that distinction comes only through hard labor and that he did not know a single man occupying a position of eminence in the life of the Nation today who had not blazed his own trail to that t. The candidates for graduation were presented to Bishop Freeman by Will- jam H. Church, headmaster of St. Albans School, who will close fifteen years of service to that institution on July 1, his recent resignation taking effect at, that time. The ven graduates who received diplomas yesterday were all Washing- ton boys and were as follows: Raymond Hitchings Carter, William Garfield Galliher, John Wharton Hazard, Parker Haddaway Jones, Tyler Gatewood Kent, Charles Adriance Rudd and Wilson Grubb Shugerman. The rest of the program for the commencement week at St. Albans in- cludes the annual field day on Thurs- day. with luncheon in the woods; the annual open air service at 4 p. m. at the Peace Cross, and the annual prize day on Monday, with final chapel at 9:30 a. m., followed by the public speaking contest and the award of prizes for the year.

Prevention of disease in international commerce and standardization of quar- antine procedures occupied the atten- tion of the Pan-American Sanitary Bureau at the opening of its sessions yesterday at the Pan-American Union. Short talks were made by Dr. L. S&S. Rowe, director general of the Pan- American Union, Dr. Hugh 8S. Cumming, United States surgeon general, as di- rector of the Pan-American Sanitary Bureau, and Dr. Mario G. Lebredo, of Havana, Cuba, as its vice director.

Taylor, another patient at the hospital, who is reported to have been pushed to the floor by Herds. The coroner’s jury disclosed in its report that it was doubtful whether the injuries received by Taylor when he was pushed over were the direct cause of hig death. Taylor received a fracture of the hip. Hospital authorities main- tain that the fact that Taylor died after receiving the injury was a co- incidence. No charge was placed against Herds, the coroner’s jury deciding to send the case to the grand jury. { Publie Must Use Fort Gate on Memorial Day Persons going to Arlington Na- tional Cemetery: on Memorial Day should go by way of the Key Bridge and enter the cemetery by the Fort Myer gate, Maj.

Cn ene tne PRATT PLANNING M0 ARnEOTS CAMPAIGH ~TOEND JAYWALKING Matter Entirely-Up to Police Commission, Says Head, Denying Reports. QUESTION BEING STUDIED IN SURVEY OF 35 CITIES Jailing of Traffic Violators Among Pedestrians Urged by Business Club. There will be no campaign of ar- rests of pedestrians for jaywalking if the decision is left to the Police De- partment, it was said yesterday. “I see no necessity for a campaign at this time,” Maj. Henry G. Pratt, superintendent of police, said yester- day. ; That the question is under serious Stealy by District officials, however, is | indicated by the fact that police offi- clals have begun a canvass of 35 other cities to learn what is their, practice. This inquiry was initiated;at the order of Commissioner Proctor L. Dougherty. president of the Board of Commission- ers. Club Urges Arrests. Arrest of pedestrians, who jaywalk, was urged on the Commissioners las‘ week by the American Business Clu9 of Washington, which was instrumen- tal in initiating the recent effort of the police to educate pedestrians to cross the streets by way of cross walks in conformity with signa] lights. The present traffic law forbids jay- walking but the enforcement of this rovision by means of arrests has fal- eu into the discard because the law does not provide any specific penalties and there is, apparently, a question as to Just whether the genera] penalty for violation of the law’s provisions ap- plies to pedestrians. Police officials, including Maj. Pratt, believe that jaywalking is a matter of serious importance and improper cross- ing of streets by pedestrians results in many unhecessary. accidents. Eventual- ly, they believe, some regulation will be necessary, but just what or when they are not prepared to say. Prefer Autuist Curbing. “] would rather see at this time,” Pratt said, “a rigid and effective en- forcement of the regulations forbidding motorists to encroach the cross Walks and those governing right-hand turns. “What will be done about the ma:- ter is, of course, something for the -District Commissioners to decide and tae Police Department will carry out its orders. but I do not intend to recommend a campaign for arrests of pedestrians. Future developments, of course, may make another course ad- visable.” Wife Lets Office In Home; Is Sued Husband Requests Divorce, Naming Contractor as Corespondent. Eight years ago Mrs. Susan Eva Le- land, of 420 Second street northwest, is alleged to have offered a jobbing contractor use of the reception hall and telephone facilities of her home as an office. The offer, it was said, was accepted and yesterday Allison W. Le- land, of 610 H street northeast, insti- tuted suit for absolute divorce against his wife in the District Supreme Court, naming the céntractor as corespondent.

McCormick and Owen Urge Feminine Sex to Greater Activity. ‘LAUD POLITICS AS CALLING Organized groups of women have be- come a potent factor in government and development of this country, two women members of Congress, Repre- sentative Ruth Hanna McCormick,- of Illinois, and Representative Ruth Bryan Owen, of Florida, told those present it the annual banquet of the Business and Professional Women’s Club of the District of Columbia at the Hamilton Hotel last night. Mrs. McCormick, who is for senator from Illincis, announced that she is a politician by profession and a ward, precinct, county and State one at that. She said that business and profegsional women must take not only a civic, but a political part in the government of the Nation, if they would be worthy of the vote for which they fought so hard. Mrs. McCormick, in describing the power of some of the organized groups of women, said that the well-known political steamroller of Cook County, Ill, is not to be compared with the] steamroller in some of the women’s organizations. “Don’t wait to see what ‘They,’ mean- ing the political machine, will do in naming a candidate and then vote for the best man,” she advised the women. “Rather see that this mythical ‘They’ choose the man or women as a candi- dzte the people want. The machine is composed of elected members chosen by the people at primary elections. The women as well as the men are re- Sponsible as to the ‘‘nd of bosses in the machines.” Representative Owen described a con- gressional committee meeting as being as proper as a church gathering. She Said that the work of politician and public servant is as high a calling as any citizen could possibly select. Representative Owen said that Amer- ica can not have 1,000 per cent govern- ment with only 50 per cent of the fran- ehised voting. She urged the women of the Nation to do their duty as voters. Many distinguished business and professional and women executives in the Government departments were among the guests amd members. The president, Mrs. Sheppard Knapp Haynes, acted as toastmistress. An ad- dress was given on the work of the or- ganization by Miss Emily R. Eneubuhl, national executive secretary. A pro- gram of songs was given by Miss Jane Daniel, accompnied at the piano by Miss Pearl A. Griffith. ‘““Dude” Ranch Agent Corrals Capital Men “Dude” ranches, vacation centers in the cowboy country for Eastern “dudes,” are opening their annual season June 1 with accommodations on 150 ranches in northern Wyoming and southern Montana for an expected record crowd of 10,000, according to T.

Guns Found in Georgetown Believed Braddock Army’s Guns that even the oldest members of Georgetown can not identify have been discovered in this historic sec- tion of the District; and data are now being unearthed which may link the old-time weapons with Gen. Braddock, it was disclosed last night at a meeting of the Georgetown Citizens Associatton. The ancient weapons, it was an- nounced, were recently dug up at the lower end of Thirty-fourth street, near K, where an excavation is being made for a new building. They were brought to the attention of the Georgetown Citizens Association. The Smithsonian Institution was no- tified, and the opinion was at. first ex- pressed that the guns were struck at the old Foxhall Foundry. This theory has been abandoned, however, and it is now thought that the arms were part of the equipment of Gen. Braddock’s army. a candidate, SIMMONS 10 PUSH CITY CENTER BILL ‘Nebraska Representative to Ask $3,000,000 if Any Sum Is Voted. PUT ON PAR WITH AIRPORT If the House decides to approve any appropriation bill at the special ses- sion, Representative Simmons (Repub- lican), of Nebraska, is going to ask that $3,000,000 be appropriated to pur- chase land for Washington’s proposed municipal center. In making this announcement yes- terday, Simmons declared that, in his opinion, the municipal center project is every bit as important as the air- port project, and perhaps more im- portant. Simmons, who is chairman of the District subcommittee of the House Appropriations committee, introduced and had enacted in the last Congress a bill authorizing purchase of the iend needed for the proposed group of municipal -. buildings, This area is bounded by Third and Sixth streets, Pennsylvania avenue, Indiana avenue and Louisiana avenue northwest. Sees Economy in Speed. The Nebraskan believes that by pur- chasing the land immediately rather than waiting for the regular session of Congress, a considerable saving can be effected. 3 Discussing the proposed airport here, Simmons announced that he would ‘withhold his approval of the airport resolution until a definite understand- ing is reached with regard to just how the District is going to pay its share of the total cost of the project. The resolution recently approved by the Congressional Airport Commission provides for an immediate appropri- ation of $500,000 to start work on the project, the whole of this.sum to come out of the Federal Treasury. While nothing is said in the resolution about what the District is to pay ultimately, members of the commission expect that future appropriations will be carried in the District appropriation bills. Wants Definite Understanding. This would suit Simmons, but he wants some definite understanding on the question right now, otherwise he is going to withhold his approval of the $500,000 Federal appropriation. If, after the initia] Federal appro- priation of $500,000, the subsequent appropriations are carried in the Dis- trict appropriation bills, local taxpey- ers will have to pay far more than 50 per cent of the total cost ef the pro- ject. The greater the amount that is spent on the airport, or airports, the greater will be the percentage that the taxpayers here will have to bear. The District Commissioners have recommended that $6,000,000 be spent ultimately for an air terminal at Gravelly Point, and that this sum be shared by the Federal and District governments on a 50-50 basis. For several years now. the Federal Government has been contributing $9,000,000 toward the District appro- priation ill, a sum which represents between 25 and 30 per cent of the total a operating the. local govern- ment.
