SUPPORT WITHDRAWN BY FOUR ADHERENTS Conference Report Vote to Be Asked as Soon as Possible. COMMITTEE DECIDES UPON BOARD OF NINE Eight Appointed Members and Agriculture Secretary Are Seen Group Roster. (Associated Press.) Administration learlers expressed the opinion yesterday that the Senate will uphold a prospective recommendation by the farm relief conference commit- tee to eliminate the export debenture plan from the farm bill expected to be presented to both branches of Congress mext week for fina] approval. A careful check of the Senate mem- bership was held to have shown that three or four senators who voted for the debenture plan last month have decided to support the conference re- port recommending its elimination on the theory that farm legislation would be greatly delayed if the controversy over this proposal is further prolonged. With this situation in mind, the leaders are prepared to ask a vote in the Senate on the conference report as goon as the conferees complete their work. Senator McNary, of Oregon, chairman of the conference, said he expected this to be early this week ‘The conferees had hoped to complete their work yesterday but found it im- possible to do so. No Further Difficulty Seen, If the predictions of the leaders are borne out, the few remaining steps nec- essary to send a farm bill to President Hoover would be taken without diffi- culty. The House is expected to ap- prove the conference report: practically without debate. In the Senate, the debenture extremists might wage.a last ditch fight to retain the provision they favor. The conference committee reached a tentative decision yesterday regarding the make-up of the proposed farm board. The decision recommended a board of eight appointed members and the ‘Secretary of Agriculture, who would serve ex officio. The appointed members would serve for six years at an annual salary of $12,000. House Bill Provides Six. The House farm bill provided for a board of six members, and that of the Senate for twelve, one each from the twelve Federal Land Bank districts. The conference committee decided to per- mit the President to name board mem- bers without geographical consideration but agreed to insert a section in the bill asking the President to keep in mind the localities in which the major crops are produced. The committee had in mind a board representing the cotton. corn, tobacco, wheat and live stock areas. Considerable discussion was provoked by the different methods by which stabilization agencies would be per- fected and details in this connection were permitted to go over until] this week for solution. Senator McNary said he believed an agreement would be reached easily after the conferees had had time to give the questions involve‘ ‘more study. One Killed, Eleven Hurt By Lightning in Storm Cedar Bluff, Ala., gvune 1 (AP.).— One man was killed, two were seriously injured and nine others shocked by a bolt of lightning during a storm near here today. Hop Harper, of Bear Creek, was killed and Jim Jones and Dick Rower, of the same vicinity. were seri- ously injured. The men composed a construction crew on the Coosa River. They were struck by the bolt as they ran for shelter to escape the storm. Young Man Who Slew Benefactor Will Hang Tombstone, Ariz.

Cleveland, Ohio, June 1 (A.P.).— Assistant Prosecutor Frank J. Merrick refused tonight to reveal the basis of “embarrassing exposures” with which Mrs. Anna Szenen said she threatened her employer, Mrs. Dorothy Snyder, prominent Cleveland society woman, and which Mrs. Szenen said led to the slaying of Mrs. Snyder at her palatial home here yesterday. The kind of “exposure” which Mrs. Szenen said she threatened, lacks proof, and might be merely a figment of a distorte® mind, Merrick said. Mrs. Szenen, who was a house maid in the Snyder residence, pleaded guilty today to a charge of first degree mur- der, supposedly with the intention of alleging that she kiflfed in self-defense. Judge Stanton A. Addams, of East Cleveland Municipal Court, marked the docket “examination waived,” how- ever, and ordered her held to the grand jury. Tonight Merrick was examining the evidence in the case which began yes- terday when police, summoned to the Snyder residence, found Mrs. Snyder dead on the kitchen floor with wounds from a large knife in her chest. Mrs. Szenen confessed to the killing at once. She said she had an argu- ment with her employer over wages os Finance Committee Minor- ity Votes for Open Hear- ings on House Measure. G. 0. P.

Moore, Demo- crat, had been elected to the House of Representatives from the Third Con- | gressional District. He defeated E ver Beliles, Republi- can, by a majority of more than 1,000. With returns received from 271 of the) 275 precincts the vote stood: Moore, 19,493; Beliles, 18,442. The special election today was to fill the scat made vacant by the death of Charles W. Roark, Republican, who was elected '‘n 1928, but did not live to take the oath of office. The election of Mr. Moore gives the Democrats three members of the House of Representatives from Kentucky to the Republicans’ eight, an exact rever- sal of what is considered “normal” for the State. In the Hoover landslide all the Democrats were defeated except two, Mr. Moore losing. to Mr. Roark by a plurality of 4,000. The vote cast today was approxi- mately half that cast in the Moore- Roark rece, when the winner polled 37,216 votes in the district. Mr. Moore, formerly a banker, first went to Congress to fill the unexpired term of the late R. Y. Thomas. He was reelected once prior to his defeat. Mr. Beliles, like his successful oppo- nent, is a resident of Morgantown, But- ler County. He now holds the office of ecunty clerk.

BARGAIN IS ALREADY REACHED, IS CLAIM Others Say Attack of Cleric Is Veiled in Rally Demand on State Democrats. By CARLISLE BARGERON, Democratic leaders, Just now getting their house again in order, professed yesterday to see nothing more than a personal fight between Senator Car- ter Glass and Bishop James Cannon, jr., in the latter's rallymg call to Vir- ginia Hoovercrats. It signalizes, they declared, the consummation of a deal between Cannon and the Republican leaders whereby the Hoovercrats would get the Virginia governorship this year and the Republicans the senatorial office next year. itself | There has been a long feud between the clergyman and the senator, it was pointed out, because the belligerent little author of the Federal reserve act would never truckie to him, but there are many indications that an intense desire to defeat Glass is not all the bishop has in mind. Neither is it be- lieved that the Republicans will be a party to the reported deal. Wish Father to Thought. In many cases the wish was father to the thought when the belief was ex- pressed that tt is simply a personal fight. At least fervid hopes were ut- ‘tered that the fight would be local in character. Even Senator J.Tom Heflin expressed the hope that there would be no fur- ther trouble, and about the time he was so expressing himself, his antict- “whereas if we set the date for the | |pated opponent down in Alabama, 'John H.

The activities in the various cases of Mrs. J. C.

Every household in the District, from the richest to the poorest, will be affected by the decisions which will be made by the new Public Utilities Com- mission on questions pending or soon to be brought formally before it. Millions of dollars which the public will be asked to pay in increased rates to the utilities corporations, and many more millions in the form of increased valuations—paper millions, but very real none the less, because the public must pay a high rate of interest on these paper millions in the form of high gas, electric, street car, bus and telephone rates—are involved Never before, since the Utilities Com- mission was created in 1913, has it been faced with such a staggering total of claims and consequent work. It might be said that the commission has, prac- tically, to begin anew and do over again all the work done in the past.

The increased fare demanded by the Capital Traction Co., not only for its own lines, but for those of the Wash- ington Railway & Electric Co. as well, is brought sharply home by an analysis of street car riding statistics. Granting of the demand made by John H. Hanna, president of the Capi- tal Traction Co., for a straight 8 cents cash fare will mean that the average street car rider will have to pay an additional $15.12 a year into the treasuries of the street car com- panies. The total amount the street car riders would pay for riding, the Capital Traction Co. estimates, would be §$l,- 185,330.46, on the basis of the straight 8-cent fare. Of this amount. the Washington Rallway & Electric Co., which did not ask for an increase in fares, would‘receive $655,856.86, Hanna estimates, and his company would get CONTINUED ON PAGE 8, COLUMN 2. _ Be Sure te Visit the Rhododendron Festival at Asheville, N.

Except for some minor mat- ters, which it is hoped will be dis- posed of early next week, the great question is settled.

Washington’s appeal for immediate | action did not cause surprise here as London and the United States were considered the determining factors in the question of disarmament. Practically all of the members of the secretariat of the political department are going to Madrid where, behind the scenes, there has arisen a situation from the recent preparatory commis- sion sessions, American Moves and Brit- ish elections, which mst be thrashed out. Following Bernstorffs dramatic de- nunciation against the futility of pre- paratory commissions, the writer has been informed authoritatively that Ber- lin has decided to adopt a policy of “ob- server” until the world conference is called President Hoover's militancy and the British elections are now, however, ex- pected to reverse Stresemann’s decision. Another question to be settled at Madrid is whether the council should invite Washington, Rusia and Turkey to participate in the third commission on disarmament, a question debated in Septem ber.

British Admiralty’s | Plan Than Politics. By ALBERT W. FOX. President Hoover's foreign policy to some extent will be affected by the |result of the British election. No real change, however, is to be anticipated (in Great Britain’s naval policy, nor is there justification for any hope thas a Labor governnient or a coalition gov- ernment will bring about any genuine change in the British attitude toward | reduatten of naval armaments. In general matters of foreign policy, affecting reparations, the Versailles treaty, Great Britain’s attitude toward France and Germany, there may be a slight change, and there will be a pro- nounced change in the British gov- ernment’s relations with Russia. But the time-honored friendship between Great Britain and the United Sta‘es will proceed along the usual lines. There was no American issue in the British campaign. Officials and diplomats, when ex- pressing their private views, frankly admit that Great Britain's naval poi- ity is dictated by the admiralty, with little thought to political complexion of the government. There has never been a time during the past 50 years or more when the admiralty’s view of British naval’ needs has been influenced by the vicissi- tudes of internal politics. Neither the British prime minister nor the British Parliament presumes to tell the ad- miralty what it shall or shall not do in the way of providing for the naval defense of the empire.

DAWES MAY IMPART BASIS OF NEGOTIATION Diplomats See Administration Seeking Definite Results Within 60 Days. (United Press.) President Hoover pressed forward vigorously yesterday in his advocacy of immediate agreement amonk the powe- ers for a further reduction in naval armaments. $t was gfienerally felt in diplomatic circles last night that the President has launched his administration ypon & program which, in short, calls for a Clear and unequivocal declaration fer or against effective reduction negotia- tions within 60 days. So swiftly have developments fol- lowed the President’s challenging Me- morial Day adress tin Arlington National Cemetery, in which he again called for _| plain speaking on the naval question. The Chief Eexcutive gave up his week- end holiday plans yesterday morning to resume conferences with Secretary of the Navy Adams relative to the building program, and its relations to the prospective reduction negotiations. In brief, yesterday’s developments revealed that the President is deter- mined to learn.as quickly as possible whether European nations are genu- inely interested in reduction of exist- ing naval establishments or prefer to continue the tortuous course of the last five years in quest of ordered technical “limitations.” ' “VYardstick. To this end the Chief Executive has instructed the Navy Department to prepare in precise words the American conception of the new naval “yard- New stick” which is to measure the relative . . fighting strength of world navies. Hopes that when Ambassador Dawes sails for London next Friday he may carry this exact definition with him as a basis for the resumption of di- rect negotiations between the two prin- cipal naval powers. Inability of Great Britain and the United States to agree upon a formula for measuring fight- ing strength has been the chief obsta- cle to the progress of naval reductioa since the Washingtoh conference of 1921. The President has indicated many times since March 4 that teo mucb attention has been given in the past to technical points, which often have clouded the fundamental quég- tion. The reaction to the Memorial Day - address, from both the United States and Europe, has convinced the Wash- ington Government that the European powers are earnestly seeking a means to throw off the crushing burden of competitive naval armaments. He be- lieves that a formula can be found for bringing the powers to concerted action in this direction at once. Budget Requires Early Action. It is understood in naval circles here that the United States formula for evaluation of fighting strength, pre- sented in general terms at Geneva on April 22 by Ambassador Hugh Gibson, will be reduced to exact language prob- ably before the new government is formed in London. It is known also, that Admiral Hilary P. Jones, who was @ member of the United States dele- gation to the Geneva Preparatory Com- mission meetings lest month, has been in almost unbroken conference with Secretary of State Stimson and Secre- tary Adams during the last three days. This fact. plus the statement by Sec- retary Stimson Friday that the present building program of the United Statea, alone, would cost more than a Dillion ~ dollars in the next fifteen years, give credence to reports that the President ON INSIDE PAGES THE SENATOR'S DIARY— Page 18 OLD KING BRADY— Fourth Section, Page 18 SPORT NEWS— EDITORIALS— Second Section, Page 1 REAL ESTATE— Third Section, Pages 1-4 THEATERS— Fourth Section, Pages 2-4.

Under that act the Federal Gov- ernment ceded back to Virginia the 30 or more square miles that the State had given to form the National Cap- ital, reducing the city to the size of the land ceded by. Maryland. Since then the question frequently has been raised whether the retroces- sion was valid. Gibson has receive numerous requests to bring about an/’ investigation that will settle the con- troversy. Phrasing of Bill Problem. So far, the Vermont representative has not decided just how to phrase his resolution. He may ask for the ap- pointment of a special commission to study the quetsion, or he may ask that the Attorney General be directed to submit a ruling. The territory that was ceded back to Virginia—it is now Alexandria and Arlington County—remained a part of the 10-square-mile District of Colum- bia until the citizens became so aroused by the way Congress had neglected them that they demanded a divorce. No Federal buildings had been erected on the Virginia side of the Potomac River and but few physical itmprove- ments had been ordered. Everything that was authorized by Congress seem- ed to favor the Maryland part of the District. Election and Proclamation. Finally, in 1846, the sentiment for withdrawal culminated in a petition to Congress asking that the Virginia part of the District be retroceded. Con- gress responded by passing an act, ap- proved July 9, 1846, submitting the question to the voters of the territory affected. The election, which was held on the first and second days of September, 1846, resulted in a vote of 763 in favor of retrocession and 222 against it. On September 7, 1846, President Polk is- sued a proclamation announcing that the portion of the District derived from Virginia was receded back to that State. Although there have been frequent suggestions of late that the receded tefritory again be made a part of the District, Representative Gibson said yesterday that %: was primarily inter- ested in the legal aspect of the ques- tion. Question of Law, Gibson says. If it was not legal’,” Gibson said, “then the territory across the river is still a part of the District of Colum- bia.” If the people in nearby Virginia want to come back into the District, Gibson said, they should vote on the question and petition the Virginia legislature. Congressional action, he said, would come later. THE * ~ ’ rm ene ff ae MEAS LPO 7 PO | OPEN ay rP Netege —s ‘ hd oe PAN PVT « erty 5s meyers oe + : . os @ s .

When the body was first discovered it was believed Miss Lee died of heart disease, but closer examination at the county morgue revealed the broken neck and marks on the throat.

The board indicated that the commencement ex-. ercises, which are being arranged for by President H. C.

The trustees urged students to ap- pear before a committee to present proof of their innocence in connection with the rebellion.

It is known that Hugh Gibson, dur- ing the meeting, sought to ascertain the secretariat’s intention regarding the invitation to Washington, and it was intimated that it wouldn’t be diplo- matically expedient. President Hoover’s Memorial Day speech half convinced members of the league of Washington’s willingness to go the limit to accelerate disarmame::t. plans. Another effect of Washington’s position is expected to be the definite discarding of the growing movement on the part of some governments to substitute limitation for reduction.

The decisive pronouncement from Washington is interpreted as meaning that the United States would refuse to participate in Hamstrung pourparlers. Recall Chamberlain’s Lack of Faith. Kellogg pact enthusiasts hailed Presi- dent Hoover’s statement that the Kel- logg pact nrust be considered as suffi- cient security to justify disarmament. The members have recalled Chamber- lain’s lack of faith. Officials in touch with the British Laborites declare that MacDonald is considering making use of the preroga- tive of members to call upon the league to sponsor preliminary Anglo-American naval discussions on Gibson's relative values formula. Tt is régarded as ‘highly -desirabie from the league’s point of view that all preliminary discussions be held in Geneva in order that the disarmament section might act as “eyewitness” for nonparticipating league members. This arrangement obviates all arguments heretofore advanced by Russians, Swedes, the Spanish and others against bilateral and trilateral conversations such as caused the ill-starred Anglo- French naval proposals. President Hoover’s emphasis on the value of the Kellogg pact is accepted by arbitration and conciliation advo- cates as a great boon. They are plan- ning a concerted drive to secure world- wide acceptance of the last assembly's general act. Sweden, Belgium, Denmark and France will have acceded to the gen- eral act and British Liberals and Labor- ites have pledged acceptance. There is also reason to believe that naval rap- proachement, between the nited States Japan, Britain, France and Italy will be followed by a drive for 50 per cent all-around reduction and limitation on land armaments, establishments and expenditures.

There is no such thing as a naval committee in Parliament, and it would be un- heard of for civilian members of Par- liament or British politicians to at- tempt to enter into discussions with the admiralty as to what class of ships or what amount of tonnage should be required for the royal navy. Those who anticipate an anti-Navy policy on ‘the part of Ramsay Mac- Donald overlook the fact that the last British cruiser-building program, which was so widely discussed as a@ violation of the spirit of the Washing- ton Arms Conference, was laid down at the time when MacDonald was certain countries are new seeking to! limit the scope of the world confer- | @This became a highly British prime minister. This did not mean that MacDonald either favored or did not favor such a program. It meant simply that the British admiral- | ty had decided to embark on that pro- |gram and that the program was there- | fore carried out to the letter. It would have made no difference whether Mac- Donald liked it or not. Baldwin Was Impotent. At the Geneva conference the Baid- win government conducted the negotia- tions with the American and Japanese representatives, and sought by use of its statesmanship to consummate an agreement favorable to Great Britain, and, in this mstance, unfavorable to the United States. But the substance of the British terms was never dictated by Prime Minister Baldwm. .The Brit- ish admiralty laid down limits of Brit- ish concessions and dictated the condi- tions upon which Great Britain would agree. All efforts to sway the admi- ralty proved abortive, and it was fully realized at that time that no diplomatic maneuvering was of the slightest avail. There was during the last coalition government under Ramsay MacDonald a serious question as to whether the British should continue the fortifica- tions of the Singapore naval base. controversial question. There was real opposition at that time to fortifying the Singapore base. But the reason for. this opposi- tion was primartly due to the fact that British admiralty experts were divided. Ultimately the admiraity decided to go ahead with the fortifications of Singa- pore. : There will be, according to a con- sensus, ali increase in the political Nagitation for limiting naval armaments in Great Britain. It will remain dif- ficult to ascertain how much of this political discussion is genuine and how much is designed for the purpose of helping the British Navy by weaken- ing American sentiment for the de- velopment of America’s naval program. Admiralty Aids Propaganda. Naturally the British admiralty favors any program designed to dis- courage competitive naval building by ‘America or other powers. On the basis of relative naval strength, it is, of course, to the Admiralty’s interest to do everything possible in support of such propaganda. This does not necessarily mean that the admiralty has eny intention of actually shaping the British naval policy in conformity with real reduction ideals. Rapproachment' with Russia is looked for as a matter of course as & result of the election. It is emphasized here that Ramsay MacDonald’s down- fall during his previous regime was caused, in part at least, by publica- tion of the now famous Zinoviev letter which purported to show working con- tacts between the Soviet government and the Labor Party and which also indicated a secret plan to undermine British institutions. This letter, which appeared mysteriously at the most critical time of Ramsay MacDonald's campaign to retain his power, has since been pronounced a forgery. letter Donald now accept the forgery. along the line with Russia. to devote much attention to political Treaty or the reparations question. So the new British government—if and when it is formed—is expected to de- vote itself chiefly to pressing domestic problems. Salvation Army Official Marries. erine Higgins, daughter of Gen.

Cath- | i t “disillation is the act of man and has been responsible for practically all the evils which ‘liquor’ has inflicted upon the human race, while fermentation is the act of nature, and that to many must mean, in the most revererftial sense, the act of God.” His plan would bar “all alcoholic products of distillation” but would permit the control, manufacture and sale of all malt, brewed and fermented beverages by the States within their own borders. All four of the prize winning plans agreed upon the present impractibility of repealing or amending the eight- eenth amendment, the award committee announced. The plans further agreed “specifically or by implication, in the desirability of returning to the States the fullest measure of control, especial- ly in the matter of light wines and beer.” Volstead Act Assailed. “Justice Hoyt,” added the commit- tee ‘statement, “goes directly to the heart of the problem of making possi- ble the return of light wines and beers under State control and retaining Fed- eral prohibition of distilled spirits under a workable definition of the words ‘intoxicating liquor’ as contained in the eighteenth amendment.” Justice Hoyt based his plan on the premise that the repeal or the amend- ment of the eighteenth amendment is neither possible nor practicable at this time; that the proposal to permit the States at their option to dispense liquor will never prove acceptable and that a possible modification of the Volstead act as to.the alcoholic content of beverages Offers no real solution of the problem. He contended, however, that the re- peal of the Volstead act and “an intel- ligent definition” of the terms “intoxi- cating liquors” and “alcoholic bever- ages” would offer a solution which would promote temperance and unite all sections of the country in support of the law. 71,248 Plans Submitted. Justice Hoyt pointed out that “the eighteenth amendment prohibits ‘the manufactwre, sale and transportation of intoxicating liquors for beverage pur- poses.” “Despite popular belief,” he continued, “It does not refer to “alco- holic beverages,” what it bans is ‘in- toxicating liquors,’ and if these two words could be defined intelligently it would solve the whole problem.” He suggested that the words “intoxicating liquors” in the Volstead act be changed to “all alcoholic products of distilla- tion.” The word “liquor” was in the past applied to distilled spirits such as whisky, gin and brandy, the justice asserted, and was distinguished from beer and wines. The winning manuscripts were select- ed out of 71,248 plans submitted. The judges were: Former Senator James A. Reed, of Missouri; Representative James M. Beck, Pennsylvania; Representative Florence P. Kahn, Galifornia; Monsignor John L. Belford, New York; Rear Ad- miral Cary T. Grayson, retired, Wash- ington; Dr. Nathan Krass, New York, and Archdeacon Joseph H. Dodson, president of the Church Temperance Society.

Sydney, Australia, June 1 (A.P.).—A unique Australian phenomenon is the “Burning Mountain” at Wingen in northern New South Wales, which scientists say has been on fire 1,000 years. According to a party of geologists, who just have returned from an ex- ploration of the mountain, there lies below the surface a burning coal seam. Long before European settlement in Australia “Burning Mountain” was known to the aborigines, and to' them it — its name, Wingen, signifying ee re.”’ The geologists report that the sum- mit presents the appearance of the debris of a vast block of bilildings con- sumed by fire with an explosion or two thrown in. Smoke and steam continu- ously are issuing from different points, and there are numerous deposits of alum and sulphur. The burning seam probably is 30 feet or more in thickness, Say the geologists, and is being con- sumed at the rate of from 120 yards to 130 yards each century. ; Brokers Planning Appeal On Grain Futures Law Chicago, June 1 ( N.Y.W.N.8S.).—Notice has been given that an appeal will be taken from the order of Federa] Judge James H. Wilkerson denying a prelimi- nary injunction against the Govern- ment in connection with the enforce- ment of the grain futures act. In ef- fect the order, issued yesterday, dis- missed the suit filed some time ago by the Bartlett Frazier Co., grain brokers in Chicago and Kansas City. All the big grain houses were with Bartlett Frazier & Co. The bill of complaint attacked the constitutionality of the act, which re- quires the filing of daily reports with the Department of Agriculture of all grain future transactions of more than 10,000 bushels. It has driven the big operators out of the market. Virginia Has Charge Of Famous Painting Rockefeller, Jr., Gives State Custody of Portrait of. Washington. Richmond, Va., June 1 (A.P.).—John D. Rockefeller, jr. has temporarily placed the famous Charles Willson Peale portrait of George Washington in the custody of the State of Virginia. Along’ with this information today from an authoritative quarter, it was learned that the picture probably never would leave the State again. The painting, the property of the Carter family of Shirley, near here, until purchased by Mr. Rockfeller, has been on exhibit at Virginia house here for the past month. No permanent disposition of the portrait has been determined, but it will remain in the custody of Gov. Harry F. Byrd and the State of Vir- ginia pending a decision as to its fu- ture location.

No ship had gone up the waterway since yesterday. Great sections of the east bank of the chan- nel were sloughing off. With Beaumont isolated the swollen Neches River threatened to break all previous high marks near that city. Precautions against the caving in of the eastern ramp at the Neches River Bridge there were being taken, with 30,000 sand bags ready as reinforce- ments. 5 BELIEVED VICTIMS OF INSURANCE PLOT CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1, policy on his life named Mrs. Powers beneficiary. When police searched past records of crimes, disappearances and unsolved violent deaths here they found that two men, on whose lives the aged land- lady had afranged insurance policies with herself as beneficiary, had died mysteriously. Another man, an insur- ance agent, who made out one of the policies, died also under queer circum- stances. In 1921, an insurance company re- ported to police today, a young man died and a gettlement of $5,000 was made to Mrs. Powers. Sam Wright, overseer of a farm the woman owned, died several years later suddenly. His life had been insured for $2,000 and Mrs, Powers feceived that amount. Two years ago Claude Burham, a roomer at Mrs. Powers’ house, disap- peared. She falled to obtain the $5,000 insurance policy on his life. Shortly after Burham’s disappear- ance the insurance agent who issued the policy or Burham, was found shot to death, Scores of young men here have vol- unteered to police information of how they answered advertisements placed in local newspapers by the woman for chauffeurs, “handy men” and “or- phans.” Mrs. Powers, they related, pat- ted them on the back and tried to in- j}duce them to board at her house. Parks was One who accepted. He was murdered six months after. Manchester has convinced police that he knew Mrs. Powers only a few weeks before slaying Parks. He said in his confession that Mrs. Powers “nagged” him into the murder.

It will be a sincere regret that in his work as Solicitor General he must be periods. _Mr. Hughes is essentially a family man, He is building up with his sons just such a comradeship as he enjoyed with his father. A large part of the little spare time granted to a busy New York lawyer is spent with his boys tramping through the woods, sailing a skiff, or swimming at their summer place on Long Island Sound. It is his hope that when the boys are a little older, all three of them can go on fish- ing trips in the North Woods, or, per- haps, wander about through Europe as he, himself, has done, He is particu- larly fond of France, and all things pertaining to France. If he might be said to have a hobby, it would be music—symphonies and operas especially, His friends say that he is an accomplished pianist in his own right, but he could not be per- suaded to admit it. He seemed rather boyishly embarrassed when talking about it. When asked if he cared for the current musical productions along Broadway, he replied, “Some of them.” But there was the impression that his tongue was in his cheek as he said it. Historical novels are his. favorites for light reading, with Dumas considerably in the lead of the other authors. Where modern literature is concerned he turns to biographies. In this he differs from his father who has always been re- ported as liking the latest detective stories. His First Political Office. The intricacies of soclety do not at- tract Mr. Hughes. He does not care for bridge or for dancing. He finds with some relief that his duties in Washington will be too strenuous to require his active participation in the social events of the Capital. Among his friends he enjoys sulte a reputation as a raconteur. He has a ready wit, but it is always generous, never sa- tirical or vindictive. Mr. Hughes has never held political office before. He has been active in the Young Republican Club, and he was once president of the Honest Ballot separated from his father for protracted - . Companion to Father and Two Sons; Prefers Work to Society. Association. He is not given to talking politics, either from a personal or an abstract viewpoint. In fact, little is known about his political beliefs other than his being a Republican. Perhaps he has felt that one vocal political member in the family was enough. His recent appointment seems to have been devoid of any family or political in- fluence. Certainly it was not by suggestion of his father that he received the post. He was recommended on the strength of his own record, indorsed by eminent barristers, and both the administration and the opposition press seem agreed that he was a wise choice for the office. His friends feel that after so many years of remaining in the background the time has come for him_to step for- ward and earn in public service the honor and prestige of which they know he will be deserving. Representation For Aliens Hit Rankin Says New Proposal Will Give Voice to 3,000,- 000 Criminals. (Associated Press.) Predicting a vigorous contest in the House tomorrow over the proposal to exclude aliens from the count in reap- portioning the members, Representa- tive Rankin (Democrat), Mississippi, said yesterday that if the Senate bill is passed unchanged 3,000,000 criminal aliens would be entitled to twelve rep- resentatives in Congress. Rankin, who is ranking minority member on the census committee, is to lead the opposition to the measure. In a Statement yesterday he declared the bill was “merely political camou- flage” and had been “flagrantly mis- represented to the American people.” “It proposes,” the Mississippian said, “to delegate the power to reapportion Congress to the Commerce Department, which is charged with taking the cen- sus. This seems to me to be one of the mest dangerous and inexcusable abdi- cations of legislative prerogatives ever attempted.” The main fight would be over the exclusion of aliens from the count, Rankin said. He added 6,000,000 aliens who would never become citizens, would be given representation by advo- cates of the bill, while Agricultural States such as Kentucky, Iowa, Kansas, Nebraska and Mississippi would not be given adequate representation, Associated Press Extends Service.

Thomas, at Police Court, refuscd to issue warrants for the arrest of three motormen of the Wash- ington Railway & Electric Co. The motormen were arrested by Mo- torcycle Policeman F. R. Tierney, of the Third Precinct. ! Knode, 35 years old, residing at 3244 P treet northwest, who was charged with driving his car across the bridge at 22 miles an hour; Clarence Sims, 29 years old, 4101 Davenport street north- west, charged with a speed of 23 miles, and John Rozier, 34 years old, of 1923 K street ncerthwest, charged with a speed of 23 miles an hour. | Regulations promulgated under the traffic law limit the speed of street cars across bridges to not more than 12 miles an hour, and it was under this authority that the motormen were ar- rested. Thomas, however, ruled that a pro- vision in the law as enacted by Con- gress excepted street car speeds from regulations by the ‘istrict Commis- sioners or traffic director and refused to take the cases into court, Under instruction from MaJ. Henry G. Pratt, superintendent of police, Lieut, L. I. H. Edwards asked Acting Corpora- tion Counsel Ringgold Hart for a formal opinion. The speeding of the Washington Rall- way & Electric street cars across the P Street Bridge was formally called to the attention of the District Commis- sioners last week by H. R. Howser, as- sistant engineer of bridges. The bridge, Howser said, was not built to withstand the strain of such speed and that lives were being endangered. He declared it would be “nothing less than criminal” to permit conditions to continue, citing the fact that street cars had jumped their tracks on other bridges on several occasions, Meantime the Police Department Is acting on its interpretation of the traf- fic laws, and Capt. William G. Scott, commander of the Third Precinct, has instructed his men to arrest the motor- man of every car which crosses the bridge at more than 12 miles an hour. What they will do later will depend on the opinion given them by Mr. Hart. The question has been referred to the Public Utilities Commission by the Dis- trict Commissioners and is awaiting ac- tion by that body, the police activity having been initiated by Maj. Pratt soe he read of Howser’s report in The t. Vv. F. .W. Post Formed in Cuba.

Washington spends more money for intellectual food than it does for meat and bread. This fact is based upon the latest Official figures of the u of the Census for 1927, according to announce- ment of:the Chamber of Commerce yesterday in showing the beneficial ef- fects of its industrial expositions, the fifth of which will be held in October. The value of newspaper and periodi- cal products ran well over $23,000,000. | 800,000 Book and job printing products were valued in excess of $6,000,000. “It is fair to assume that the city’s present annual output of the printed word runs to a value well above $30,- 000,000,” the Chamber of Commerce comments, The printing industry is the leading et ES Yn oe . industry of the city, and these are exclusive of the United States Gov- ernment Printing Office. With Gov- ernment figures, which are not avail- able, added, Washington is probably the ee pririting center in the world. Bread and bakery ucts rank sec- ond, to a value $10,000,000 for 1927.

CANDIDATE IS ATTORNEY | (Associated Press.) Commenting on the announcement of John H. Bankhead, Alabama attorney, that he would run for the Democratic senatorial nomination there next year, Senator Heflin (Democrat), Alabama, who will seek reelection, declared yes- terday he “would beat him or whoever they put up by 100,000 votes.” The “they” Heflin referred to was a “group” he said is opposing his re- election. He included in this group the “Roman ‘Catholic interests,” whose newspapers, he said, “say I ought to be defeated.” 3 “John thought he would run in 1924,” Heflin said. “But he wrote a lot of letters and was advised not to. Then he did run for the nomination In 1926 and my colleague, Senator Black, beat him by 36,000 votes.” Heflin added that “I let my enemies pick my opponents and then I pluck them.” Birmingham, Ala., June 1 (AP.).— John H. Bankhead, attorney, of Jasper and Birmingham, announced here today that he would oppose United States Senator J. Thomas Heflin in next year’s Democratic primary. Senator Heflin an- nounced several months ago he would seek reelection. Mr. Bankhead is a descendant of one of Alabama’s most distinguished fami- lies. His father, John H. Bankhead, died while a member of the Senate, Senator Heflin being elected to the va- cancy in the 1920 campaign. A brother, William B. Bankhead, of Jasper, repre- sents the Tenth Alabama District in Congress. He is an uncle of Tallulah Bankhead, the actress. Making his first appearance in poll- tics in 1926, Mr. Bankhead ran second United States Senator Hugo Black a field of five candidates. In his announcement, Mr. Bankhead said he had been urged by representa- tive citizens in all parts of the State to make the race. He declared his can- didacy against Senator Heflin would give the people of Alabama an oppor- tunity to “give expression to the type and standard of senator they want to represent them.” KENTUCKY DEMOCRAT CHOSEN TO CONGRESS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1, W. Moore had been elected representa- tive for the Third Kentucky District by & majority which indicates a reversal of more than 5,000 votes in the nor- Mally close district since the anti- Smith upheaval last November. Moore was elected, according to re- ports, by a majority of between 1,500 and 2,000 votes. The district went about 4,000 against him in the national election. The death of Charles W. Roark, Moore’s successful Republican opponent in November, necessitated a jal electfon. And tifis special election was to be the first real test of strength in the border States, or the country itself, for that matter, since November. National leaders of both parties had watched the district with the realization that there might be a plain imdication as whether the ills suffered by the r ratic party in the Hoover land- S were to be permanent. “Representative Joseph W. Byrns, of Tennessee, chairman of the national Democratic ‘congressional committee, saw in the Kentucky Democratic vic- Jast night a stgn which “augurs a Democratic House in 1930.” “The South has not left its moor- ings, this result shows,” Byrns said. “We all know that what happened last fall was due to unusual conditions. Thig victory is most significant in view of the fact that the tariff bil] is pend- ing, and its terms known to the coun- try, and also in view of the fact that the farm bill does not meet expecta- tions. I think the Third District out- come ig simply the forerunner of what is coming in 1930. It is strongly in- dicative of a reaction which has already set in and which will increase as the | tariff provisions become better known.” TARIFF BILL COMBINE LOOMS IN SENATE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1, Congressional delegation for Monday to determine what pleas for changes in the agricultural schedule will be pre- sented by that State before the finance committee hearings. . . The schedule relating to farm prod- ‘ucts will be the first considered by the committee. _ Nations’ Complaints to Be. Heard. Expressions of dissatisfaction of a mumber of foreign nations over the duties in the tariff bill, recently passed the House, are expected to be taken under consideration by the Senate finance committee while that body Is studying the measure. More than a dozeh nations have transmitted documents concerning the bill to the State Department, which in turn has submitted them to Congress. Five governments are known to have sent formal notes or to have ‘instructed thelr ambassadors to make verbal rep- resentations on behalf of their respec- tive countries to the department. The other nations for the most part have presented the cases of their industries and exporters in the form of briefs for- mulated by trade associations and com- mercial organizations. The nations which have made formal tations are: Belgium, Spain, Italy, Argentina and Cuba. The other countries which have communicated in some form with the department in- clude: Great Britain, both for her ucts and those of several domin- and colonies not having diplo- matic representatives in Washington; Turkey, Persia, Nomway, Egypt, Hon- duras, Czechoslovakia and Denmark. France and Switzerland, the latter be- cause of duties on watches and clocks, also are understood to be preparing documents “for transmittal to the Government. representations are expected to be handed to the American Embassy in Paris.

Frequently Are Shoulder to Shoulder Against The French | Their Colleagues. The most famous tag line in Ameri- can judicial history was appended to United States Supreme Court decisions rendered within a few days of each other recently when the O'Fallon case was settled in favor of the railroads and when Mme. Rosika Schwimmer, Hungarian pacifist, was denied citizen- ship—“Holmes and Brandeis dissent- ing.” Associate Justice Sanford also dissented in the Schwimmer case and Stone in the O'Fallon case. These were the latest of a series of Classic dissents from which an almost complete history of American progres- sive liberalism in the twentieth century might be written. Justice Louls Bran- deis is a mere 73, and a long record of constructive liberalism behind him when he assum-d his position; Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes at 88 is the old- est Man on the bench, a veteran of the Civil War, born a Brahmin of the New Engand Brahmins, top caste of con- Servatism, yet the virility and fntelli- gent youthfulness of his thought has many times shamed associates a gener- ation his junior. | The son of Oliver Wendell Holmes, the “Autocrat of the Breakfast Table,” whose name he bears, Justice Holmes was born in the most exclusive Back Bay circles. Graduated from Harvard in 1861, he immediately enlisted and served throughout the duration of the Civil War, though seriously wounded three different times. His father wrote a poignant account of going to find “my captain” after receiving notice from the Government after the Battle of Antietam: Capt. Holmes wounded; shot through neck: thought not mortal. At Keedsyville.” Happily the wound was not mortal and the gallant young captaif lived to earn another immortality. Broke With Roosevelt. Justice Holmes seems to be in con- tempt of Father Time’s court. He is still a smart dresser, smokes cigarettes, and until the recent death of his wife, an inveterate diner out and an equally delightful dinner table companion, whether his hostess seated him beside a debutante or a dowager. Widely read in almost every subject and a scholar in the true sense, he yet finds great delight in French novels; not merely classic examples of great French litera- ture but what his wife called “naughty” French novels, Appointed to the Supreme Court in 1902 by President Roosevelt, Justice Holmes was called in newspaper head- lines “friend of ‘tabor” and “antiim- perialist.” Within a year he was said to be one of the acute disappointments of the Roosevelt administration. The trouble was said to be that the new justice reached his conclusions from his own intepretation of the law, in- stead of deciding important cases as Roosevelt wanted and expected him to. Mr. Holmes, early in his judicial career, had become conspicuous for dissenting. The case that most irritated Presi- dent Roosevelt was the stand which his appointee took on the important Northern Securities merger case. The majqrity opinion was that the merger was a trust and therefore Illegal, as repressing cOmmerce. This decision was a victory for the Roosevelt admin- istration, but the fly in the Presiden- tfal ointment was the fact that Holmes had dissented. For some time after this incidefit it was common gossip in Washington that the door of the White House was closed to Justice Holmes, who had previously dropped in to see the President as often as two or three times a week. Justice Holmes has not been a stub- born or blind liberal. Often his sense of truth and justice has ledj him to dissent in favor of “big business,” but the general trend of his reasoning is best indicated ‘by the following brief resume of some of his conspicuous minority opinions. Upheld Unionism. 1906—Court decides that a State can not grant a divorce when only one of the parties lives within the State in which the divorce is granted. Holmes dissented, saying that such a decision would render thousands of children illegitimate and thousands of persons bigamists. 1907—Chicago corporations win their tax case in Supreme Court, Holmes dis- senting. 1907—New York’s transfer tax law declared constitutional. by Supreme Court, Holmes dissenting. 1908—Labor law voided; railroads may dismiss employes for unionism, declares Supreme Court. Holmes dis- sented. : 1908—Employer’s liability law not in accordance with Constitution of United States, declares Supreme Court. Holmes dissented. 1909—A trust organized contrary to the Sherman antitrust law can not dissented. 1912—-Conspiracy to violate the Fed- eral laws punishable in any State where an overt act was dorte. Holmes dis- sented. 1913—A corner in cotten or any other commodity is crimina] because in restraint of inter-State commerce, decides court. Holmes dissented. 1918—Monopolies may not be main- tained in violation of the Sherman antitrust act through the control of patents. Holmes dissented. 1915—Court upheld right of em- ployer under laws of Kansas to ferce an employe to withdraw from his union or quit his job. affected labor conditions in thirteen other States. Holmes dissented. 1915—Supreme Court. denied appeal of Leo Frank for writ of habeas corpus On appeal from the Georgia courts. Holmes dissented, saying he serrously doubted that the prisoner had had due process of law. 1917—Court upheld the Webb-Ken- yon act prohibiting the shipment of liquor from a wet State to a dry State. Holmes dissented. World Praised Brandeis. From this point on the record reads often “Holmes and Brandeis dissented” than “Holmes dissented,” for tn 1916 }Louls D. Brandeis was appointed to the Supreme Court after considerable pub- lic clamor against him. Branded as “unfit” and “lacking in judicial tem- perament” by many prominent men, among them Joseph Choate, Elihu Root and William Howard Taft, and opposed as a “painful duty” by the American Bar Association, Mr. Brandeis faced a storm of protest when his name was proposed for the Supreme Court. While it was widely admitted that he was & man of great ability, to some shivering patriots he seemed a fiery radical. While the battle against his appointment raged, the World in an editorial said of him: “His public services have won him the hearty detestation of certain pow- . | @rful corporations and. financtal inter- ests. They hate him not merely be- cause he is a radical but because hé is enormously able and efficient. To them it is indecent that a lawyer with such extraordinary ability should wantonly and deliberately use his talents to pro- mote the soctal welfare of the American when he might command people princely fees in the service of privilege.” use the courts to collect debts.

Brandeis, left, and Oliver Wendell Holmes. Brandeis had been known as a fight- er all his life. He was one of the first “trust busters.” He did. however, more than rei] against them and wave an angry fist. He fought them with cold facts and undeniable figures. He made it a point never to make a state- ment which he could not back up with facts. It is said that no member of the Supreme Court Knows more about the structure of modern busi- ness and industry than he. His ac- quaintance with the railroad problem is such that the other members defer to his judgment. Once on the bench in ‘Washington Mr. Brandeis was soon found lined up with Mr. Holmes in many cases. Here are listed the more important cases in which the two justices have voted a minority opinion: 1917—-Supreme Court decides, in the Hitchman coal-miner case in West Vir- ginia, that United Mine Workers are forbidden to solicit members in the mines.

Meanwhile, however, the recommenda- tions of the experts to the interested governments to settle the question now has led to several interviews between Foreign Minister Stresemann and the Belgian Minister to Berlin, culminating in an offer by Stresemann to agree to come to an agreement with Belgium before the political conference which must ratify the experts’ report. Offer Is Not Accepted. Streseman said he was ready to make an agreement in a form which wouitd give the Belgians assurance of satisfac- tion, but this offer has not been ac- cepted. Over this week-end, while Sir Josiah Stamp is working constantly to get the report in a final state so that it can be read and corrected in the gen- egal session on Monday, there are active negotiations by wire and telephone be- tween Paris, Brussels and Berlin to get the Belgian dispute out of the way. Meanwhile, the report being practi- cally in shape, the question has arisen whether the Germans have agreed to pay the United States for costs of its army of occupation and war damages over 52 years, as Washington asked ijn 2 not to the conference, or for only 37 years, as all the other creditor na- tions will receive payments, Confusion has arisen because Ameri- can claims, which formerly were 45,000,- 000 marks ($10,700,000) for the next 27 or 28 years, have been increased by Washington’s official communication to the conference, to 40,000,000 marks ($9,500,000) for 52 years, Delivers Washington’s Communication. This was done through the Perelll committee on smaller claims, to which ‘the American unofficial observer, Ed- |Win Wilson, delivered Washington's of- ificlal communication last week. In | formal agreements which were ex- Changed today, however, Germany }agreed only to pay for 37 years the war | debts of Germany’s creditors due to |America. The point remains to be icleared up. There were left only two of Ger- |many’s conditions to the acceptance of |the Young annuities when the experts | gathered informally this morning. Both were cleared away rapidly. First was the exact amount of the }annuities to be fixed in the form of { i i ' bonds, which must be Placed on the | | market in order that France and others ‘May get quick money out of the pact. It was decided that the fixed quota should be 660,000,000 marks ($157,080,- 000) for 37 years, including service on the Dawes plan, and which will be 88,- 000,000 marks ($29,944,000) the first year. As s00n 4s an international] bank is established, German bonds against 500,000,000 marks of this sum will be launched, France anticipating the issue by being able to cancel part of the na- tional debt with its share. Austrian Phase Is Withdrawn. The secodnd and last condition re- lated to the annuities of the last 21 years. The Germans demanded that the secession states from the Austrian Empire cover this from what they owe the reparations commissioon, but finally withdrew this condition. The general recommendation was made that this matter be cleared away in later years, there being a tacit un- derstanding that these claims will be practically canceled. Instead, it was agreed that special funds from the profits of the Interna- tional Bank, on the interest it will save on the vast sums it will have at its dis- posal will go toward the settlement of the last 21 years of the Germans’ un- derwriting. If there is a reduction in the war debt later, Germany will profit to the extent of two-thirds of the reductions and the creditors one-third. . Other German conditions, including the principle of the retirement of raifl- road bonds and the right for Germany to declare an inner moratorium, hav- ing been settled, the réport was de- clared agreed upon except for numerous ‘Small points. Kast], for Germany, made 60 minor changes alone. Belgian Question to Be Settled. It was taken for granted that the | Belgian mark question must be settled somehow and general congratulations are expected for the beginning of the week. ; Poincare has in consequence pre- pared himself for rapid moves toward | ratification of the war debt agreements i with America and Britain and a quick ‘solution of the whole reparations and | war debt problem, on which* experts have worked here during the last seventeen weeks. Two methods are suggested for French ratification. Either to ratify the Mellon-Berenger and the Churchill- Caillaux agreements by decree, or go through the slower process of asking for parjiamentary ratification. Both are declared legal, but the announce- ment yesterday by Poincare that he would ratify by decree, with the con- sent of parliamentary leaders, brought down so much criticism from the ranks that Poincare has practicaly aban- doned the project. At a cabinet meeting at the Elysee this morning it was decided the gov- ernment should accept interpellations on war debts in the chamber on Tues- day when the date for the discussion will be fixed. This means a stormy series of sessions. (Copyright, 1929.)

He said it appeared very probable, however, ‘that some officers or members of the crew may have brought the liquor ‘aboard and secreted it with the in- itention of disposing of it to passengers ‘on the eastbound voyage. Capt. Rind told Mr. Brewer that the ‘regular life boat drill] was held on | board ship Thursday with the cus- i/tomary examination of the canvas cov- |erings, the oars and the general equip- 'ment. ‘Bhe compartments, however, 'were not opened. Whether the quantity of liquor tin them would have made the life boats unsafe was considered problematical by ‘seafaring men. To hide the bottles it 'was necessary to unscrew the cover- ings of the compartments. So sacred have these compartments been considered 'by shipping men, that prohibition raiders heretofore have never searched them. But the squad under Inspector Michael] Sweeney did a thorough job Saturday. The raid was made shortly after the President Harding, purchased from the Shippine Board by the Chapman interests, had docked at its Hoboken pier.

With this unusual load the engine was able to move no faster than the passengers could walk. Those who decided to walk it hit mud, lovely, sticky mud that literally pulled at their feet.

And the two girls from Winchester, Mass.; who are seeing the world with- out stockings, solved the mud problem by taking off their shoes and doing the Gistance in bare feet, to the great amusement of the almost naked natives working on the way. But“when they got back to the Resolute, the captain, two doctors and mother, who had started them out with kid gloves to protect their hands, all issued orders that the four mud-incased bare feet be carefully bathed in antiseptics, dis- infectants and what not.

GIRL MAY SAVE FATHER Bpecial to The Washington Post. Amarillo, Tex., June 1.—Shorn ‘of the power he held while occupying 4 bench on the Texas Supreme Court's Commission of Appeals, R. H. Hamilton, prominent Texas attorney, who on May 4 shot and killed his youthful son-in- law, Tom Walton, jr., 21, faces trial for murder in less than two weeks. Thirty-two years ago, Hamilton, a stu- dent at Baylor, held spectators at bay with a six-shoter while fellow students horsewhipped the famous W. C. Brann, “the Iconoclast.” Qn the morning of May 4, young Walton. prompted by his mother, Mrs. Grace Walton, local hotel operator, went to the office of Judge Hamilton to tell the attorney of his secret mar- rlage jowith |§Hamilton’s Theresa 19, a coed at Texas University, Austin. The marriage occurred on Feb- ruary 10, it was later learned, while the young people were students in the university. For several days Walton had been trying to communicate with the at- torney, intending to “tell him every- thing” as his mother had advised. Mrs. Walton now claims that Judge Hamil- ton had objected to the young people marrying, declaring that he would not allow his daughter to marry | beneath him, and Walton was without money or social prominence. Still the mother had confidence and advised her son: “Tell the judge everything; I know he will be sensible.” Kept From Funeral. “ry may’ get shot, but I am going to do my mother’s bidding,” Walton re- marked to friends on the morning of “he shooting. Before going to Hamil- ton’s office he stopped across the hall and chatted a moment with a stenog- Tapher of his acquaintance. She, too, khew of his secret marriage. “I am going in to see Judge Hamil- ton,” Walton said. “If you hear any shooting, you will know that I am shot,” he continued. . With such premonition, he ‘opened the door of the office and was greeted with three slugs from his father-in- law’s revolver. : ' . News of the shooting spread rapidly. Threats of mob violence followed throughout the day and Hamilton was képt in hiding after his release from jail on $20,000 bond. Three days later he was indicted by the grand jury and reatrested. Sheriff Bill Thompson placed & guard about the jail until feelimg gang The sheriff is a pioneer who yme to the Panhandle when the cow- boys enforced the law with their six guns. ‘The prominence of Hamilton and his ft y; the popularity of Walton and bride among the younger set here amd at the university; their romance om the campus, culminating in their secret marriage; the collapse of the gtief-stricken mother when she real- ized that her son died obeying her own injunction; the refusal of the family to allow the young widow the privilege of attending her husband’s funeral,. the statement of Hamilton that he shot to defend his family, and the later amendment of his statement by de- fense counsel who injected the plea of self-defense created widespread interest.

One of the biggest fights in the history of Texas looms. The day following the shooting Ham- liton announced the employment of three of Amarillo’s leading law firms. Friends and sympathizers of the slain youth and his grief-stricken mother immediately began raising a public Tund for the retention of special pros- _ @cutors to aid District Attorney Thom- ers0n and his associates. Two promi- nent prosecutors have been employed through funds raised by business men of the city. Couple Popular. Some idea of the widespread interest in the case may be obtained from the statement of the district attorney that contributions to the special fund have been received from almost every State ig the Union. His mail is flooded with letters from persons who have been aroused~ over the slaying, and from points as far away as New York City. Judge Hamilton's chances for free- dom depend considerably upon the tes- timony of his daughter, it is believed. and it is not known to what extent she will come to the aid of the father who made her a widow. Theresa, who only recently withdrew from the university, is still in Austin, so far as can be ascertained. She has never been reached for a statement, reporters being barred from her apart- ment.

William A. Roberts and William McK. Clayton, volunteer stalwarts in repre- senting the public, declared that the commission could not authorize an in- creased fare without making a new valuation of the street car properties. The valuations recognized on the books, they declared, were not “current” within the meaning of the law. Their stand was a direct challenge to the proceedings and the. commission refused to decide the question on these points. It had a conference with street railway officials and, by- agree- ment, dismissed the increased fare 'petition without prejudice and the icompany agreed not to renew its ap- plication until after March 65, last. CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. $529,473.60 acditional from the car riders each year. In,the calendar year 1928 the Capital Traction Co. cafried 56,672,907 paid passengers. This is a daily average of 155,268 paid passengers. How many different persons actually rode on the street cars it is impossible to say, but it is safe to assume that on the average each rider was a “round tripper,” that is, he rode from home to work in the morning and from work to home at night. On this. basis,the number of persons who paid to ride on Capita: Traction street cars daily fast year was 77,634. Now it is ridiculous to say that the | 644.23 and for the Washington Railway Congress Fails to Act. - This was because of the pending street car merger agreement, awaiting confirmation of. Congress. It was hoped that Congress would approve a -merger agreement such as the com- panies wanted. But the kind of a imerror agreement the companies. 'wanted met with such opposition that Congress did not approve it. The merger agreement approved by the old Utilities Commission was practically torn to shreds by the Senate and many of the most objectionable features, fought against by Clayton and Roberts and the organized citizenship of the District, were ameliorated. Senator Blaine, of Wisconsin, proposed an amendment providing for the pru- dent investment theory of valuation, but the companies would not accept this and the agreement was not ap- proved. Subsequently the board of directors of the Capital Traction Co. authorized Hanna and his assistants to renew the move for increased fare before the Utilities Commission whenever they saw fft. To date Hanna has not done so. When he will, he said, has not been determined pocketbooks which paid street car fares last year paid only at the rate of two rides a day. Wives rode downtown to market and to shop. Children rode to and from school. Once in a while there was a movie downtown, and such things. This would further reduce th» number of pocketbooks supporting the street car companies. Paid By 77,634 Riders. But against this is the number vt visitors to the city, the occasional rider, the man or woman who rode a few blocks, and the rider who did not make a round trip, or ride twice each day on a street car. Again it is impossibl- to calculate with certainty the number of these, but it would seem that the caluation that 77,634 pocketbooks paid the street railway bills of Washington last year is conservative. It is these pocketbooks which would be called on to bear the burden of the $1,185,330.46 increase in fares which Hanna demands. Needless to say this levy would be made upon the poorest section of our population; in other words, on the families least able to bear the ificreased burden. The Capital Traction Co. submitted an alternative fare proposal. This was for a 10-cent cash fare with 4 tokens for 30 cents. This rate of fare would yield the Capital Traction Co., Hanna estimates, an increase of $457,512.60 a | year and the Washington Railway & | Electric Co. would take an additional $571,701.35, a total increase the car- riding public would have to-pay of $1,029 ,213.95. | But the street car companies wousi | not get all of this. They are taxed on their gross revenues, whether they make money or not. In other words, the street car riders pay into the Dis- trict treasury each year many thou- sands of dollars which is spent for all kinds of purposes. It is a special tax, somewhat similar to the gasoline tax paid by the motorfst with the con- siderable difference that all of the gas- Oline tax is spent to provide better streets for more comfortable riding in automobiles while the street car rider gets nothing direct in return for his very direct tax levy. Traffic Policemen Paid For. There are other special levies on the street car companies, too, such as pay- ing the salaries of traffic policemen, although traffic policemen would have to be hired and paid whether street cars ran or not; there are vawious as- sessments for street repair work, too, and varftous other levies on the com- panies which total high. All of these things the street car rider haseto pay for and all of these things the street car companies have to pay before they can have a penny to pay to their stock- holders in dividends. In other words, the street car companies are not taxed on their earnings as other. businesses are. Nor are the street car riders. Every person who rides on a street car not only pays to the District the taxes due on his property, both real and per- sonal, as do other residents, but he pays & special tax in addition for the privilege of riding on the car, and in addi- | tion to paying the company a good | return for operating the car for his benefit. ; | So that, according to Mr. Hanna, the |* opal net amount which his company would |, ean the crux of the situation Nes get, in tncreased revenue from the | ~~. € amount of money the public 1s straight 8-cent fare, would be only | mt ng to pay to the street $447,299.27, while from the alternative | — fare of 10 cents# cash and four tokens | for 30 cents his company would get | only $386,506.61, Hanna estimates.

Bus Lines Not Included: These figures do not take account the increase in the number of passengers carried on bus lines oper- ated by the street car companies. The humber of bus passengers has in- creased, but so has the number of bus lines operated by the street car com- panies imcreased. The figures of the street car com pa- nies ca above to show the in- creased revenue they expected t from the higher fares Satine anata te } pay his 7 per cent stock dividend do not take into account one vital factor, that is, the probable reduction in street car riding due to the increased fare. Higher street car fares, it is believed by many students of the situation, will result in fewer rides and paying passen- gers, Thus next year the street car companies would be justified in asking for still higher fares to provide funds for their dividends. Then there would be another drop in passenger traffic. Then another increase in fares. And so On ad libitum. Should the street car companies go out of business today the city would suffer a severe loss. Tomorrow morn- matter rests. But the company known to be planning to renew its application for higher car fares soon and will do so, unless something which is not known publicly develops to con- vince Hanna and his advisers that it is the course of wisdom not to do so. But this eventuality is not re- garded as likely. When the question is renewed the |new commission will have to decide whether it will proceed on the basis of the high valuation of the Capital Trac- tion Co. fixed by the District Court of Appeals or will take a course which will cal] for a new valuation of both com- panies. : New Valuation Wanted. Opponents of higher car fares are anxious for a new valuation of the Cap- ‘ital Traction Co., declaring that the court valuation is entirely too high in the first place, and, in the second, that it was improper for the, Utilities Com- mission to permit the court to fix the valuation. The court’s function, they ‘contend, should he limited to approv- |ing or disapproving the findings of the | Utilities Commission. Even conserva- | tives among the District legal staff be- lieve that should the question be re- vived the $25,756,880 valuation granted the company by the courts could be re- duced materially and receive the ap- proval of the same courts. Thus, it might seem, the issue is one street car corporations. But the ques- tion is not so simple as that. outlined as follows: A merger of the two companies is highly desirable. “ A merger is not desirable if it achieved at the cost of exorbitant val- uation and increased fares, or other undue advantages to the street car corporations. | It is agreed a merger could be made & Electric Co. at $769,702.15, a total of $1,759,.346.38, which the street car riders paid the street car companies for the benefit of the stockholders of the companies. Solicitous for Stockholders. It was solicitude for the stockholders of his company, Mr. Hanna told the old Utilities Commission, .which prompted him to demand an increased levy on the street car riders. Every stockholder in the Capital Traction Co. had re- ceived a 7 per cent dividend for years and his company did not want to dis- appoint them Recently, he said, the company had borrowed from dts sur- us—a sum the Utilities Commission allowed to accumulate above op- erating expenses and a fair rate of re- turn on the theoretical valuation of the company—in order to pay the 7 per cent dividend. Now, Mr. Hanna declared, it intended to have increased fares 60 that it would not have to bor- row from the surplus, which really be- longed to the car riders as it was ac- cumulated and set aside to provide for replacement of worn out cars, tracks and such things. It was this “urgent need” on which Hanna based his piea for higher street car fares and it was on this basis. at the hearing before the Utilities Commission, that Ralph B. | ing there would be something approach- ing a peuic in the breasts of thousands There, so far as formality goes, the | {s | ‘Hoover Listens to Radio of the public against the avaricious | A middle road consensus might be | | to solve many ils.

But there is no reason in. law why the Utilities Commission must decree that the stockholders of the Capital Traction Co. are. entitled to an annual dividend of 7 per cent on their stock. Under the law thé dividend paid to stockholders has nothing to do with the case. The commission is solely con- cerned with the return on the valua- tion. As the valuation is reduced the rate of return yie’ded by the same reve- nue increases, and, it is admitted, the Capital Traction Co. could hardly hope for a higher valuation th~n was given it by the District courts. ‘ne Neither is there a law which says that 7, 6 or any other per cent is to be considered as the necessary “fair return” on valuation, which, it is to be remembered, has nothing to do with the amount of money put into a utility. Or, in other words. a 6 per cent return on valuation might yield 20 per cent return or any other imaginary figure, on the actual money invested in the public-serving property. Senator Caraway, of Arkansas, has introduced a bill providing for a re- turn to the 5-cent fare provided for in the charter granted the street car companies many years ago by Con- gress. This proposal is not so ruthless and harsh as it may seem. The companies can’t pay as big dividends as they would like to pay on the present high rate of fare. But if a 5-cent fare doubles the number of passengers they~ could. pay considerably more than they are. This is but one of the questions which the new Public Utilities Commis- sion, composed of Col. William B, Ladue, Engineer Commissioner of the District, whose past record definitely aligns him on the side of the people as contrasted with the criticism of his former colleagues that they were too prone to side with the utllitles corpo- rations, and Harleigh H.

As a result, all building projects in which the iron framework has not been completed were delayed. The strike of the Bridge and Struc- tural Iron Workers Union, with a mem- bership of 2,200, was called last night, and today the ornamental and archi-+ tectural iron workers walked out in a sympathetic strike. The latter organi- zation has a membership of 900 and a wage scale of $12 a day, the same as the structural workers. The unions demanded $13, a concession on their part from $14 a day first asked. The employers countered with an offer of $12.50. Work on various buildings, to cost over $100,000,000, was not seriously hampered today, E. N. Craig, executive secretary of the Building Construction Employers Association, said. He esti- mated, however, that 30,000 other craftsmen would be thrown out of em- ployment and all work on most of the projects halted if the iron workers re- mained out a week. Arthur Evenson, chief business agent for the Structural Iron Workers, an- nounced during the day that three contractors had met the union demand for an increased wage scale. | A. C. Preble, spokesman for the Iron League, an association of employes, said the workers had violated their agree- ment by striking. \ | “The agreement we have with them calls for arbitration,” he declared. “Yet they walked out, seriously affecting building operations.” On the other hand, Evenson said he did not read the agreement in that fashion and he believed there was no violation in the strike agreement, No official strike call was issued for the ornamental workers but the men walked out. Judge Denis E. Sullivan in superior court recently issued an injunction restraining Edward Ryan, their business agent, and other union officials from calling a strike in a jurisdictional agreement between the ornamental workers and the sheet metal w.*'kers as to which craft should install certain types of metal window frames. It was believed Ryan and other of- ficials feared they might be cited for contempt if they issued a strike order today, although it had nothing to do with the jurisdictional argument. The buildings on which construction has been hampered by the strike in- clude: The Merchandise Mart, the Board of Trade, the buildings of the Haw- thorne plant of the Western Electric Co., the Continental Illinois Bank Building and the Telephone Building ROBERT M. GINTER. Ginter Appointed. Aeronautic Chief Former Capital Newswriter to Direct Aviation in Pennsylvania. Special to The Washington Post. Harrisburg, June 1.—Gov. John &. Fisher has announced the appointment of Robert M. Ginter, former Washing- ton newspaper correspondent, as vice chairman of the State Aeronautics Commission for a five-year term. James F. Woodward, secretary of in- ternal affairs, by virtue of his office, is chairman.

Prior to his advancement he served as secretary of the commission. The Classified columns of The Wash- ington Post might be called a market Unions in Baltimore and Washington. STRIKE IS FORESTALLED A wage increase of 15 cents an hour for structural Ironworkers went into effect yesterday in Baltimore and Washington, thus forestalling a strike for the time being. | D. J. Scanion, Baltimore business representative of the Bridge and Struc- tural Iron Workers Union, said last night that the union, which Is closely allied with the Washington union, was forced into seeking more money as the result of-the demand of Washington iron workers. The wage scale for structural fron- workers was ranged from $1.50 an hour to $1.65 an hour following a series of conferences thig week with their law- years. Scanlon said that he did not expect that the strike trouble in Chi- cago would spread to Baltimore and Washington unless something unfore- seen develops. The Chicago strikers are asking an Increase of $1, 20 cents less than the Baltimore raise. Scanlon added there seems no danger of a strike either here or in Baltimore, al- though further negotiations between — and workers will Be called ater. Washington and Baltimore lronwork- ers, Scanlon said, are so closely allied that the unions naturally are forced to follow one another’s rules. He ¢ex- plained that the Washington ironwork- ers often find employment in Balti- more and similarly Baltimore workers often find employment in the Capital. “About three weeks ago,” Mr. Scan- lon asserted, “the Washington union asked for 15 cents an hour, with the result that the timore union was forced to follow. e;wage increase de- mand was met and went into effect in both. cities today.” New Liners to Be Named Washington and Hoover .

While the Labor party did not receive &® mandate from the people in the form of a majority of the seats in Parlia- ment, it emerged from Thursday's gen- eral election the strongest single party in Parliament, having overturned the heavy Conservative majority in an amazing’ sweep of the country. MacDonald indicated that he ex- pected to form a government and is- sued a statement warning the Conserva- tives and Liberals that he would not be responsible to the country if they turned him out of power within two years. Meanwhile, Premier Stanley Baldwin atranged for a week-end of conferences with party leaders, including J. C. C. Davidson, chairman of the Conserva- tives. Many party leaders were reported ‘to have urged the premier to resign and permit MacDonald to take office im- mediately after the reassembling of Parliament. Latest Election Returns. The standing of the parties on the basis of completed returns tonight from 606 of the 615 seats was as follows: ‘Labor, 288; net gain, 124. “Conservatives, 255; net loss, 136. Liberals, 57; net gain, 16. Nationalists, 3. Prohibitionist, 1. ‘Constitutionalist, 1.

R. Clynes, Arthur Hen- derson and J. H. Thomas. Statement By MacDonald. ‘MacDonald issued a statement to the press in which he said: “It is quite clear that the country hiss rejected the Conservative govern- ent. The only alternative is a Labor ST ciiatration. i“If I can help it, there will be no disturbance of the country by new elections within two years. I will use every ounce of influence I have to vent an election within two years, use I am much concerned for the dpvelopment of industry and peace at home and abroad. “I am going to stand for no monkey- ing. It will rest with them, not with us, if there is to be an election sooner than two years. ‘ey have seen something of the troubles and disturbance to industry of unnecessary elections.

The Democrats insist now that Cannon’s statement means that they have reached an agreement. Had no agree- ment been reached the astute bishop would not have made his move, it is declared. The plan, it is insisted, is for the anti-Smith people to meet at Roa- noke June 18 and name Prof. William Moseley Brown, of Washington and Lee University. The Republicans meet- ing a few days later would. then simply indorse the anti-Smith ticket and let it go at that. Slemp Support Seen. In return, Cannon and his ~- anti- Smith flock would support the Repub- lican senatorial nominee, quite prob- ably C. Bascom Slemp, in 1930. Those who profess to be convinced that this deal has been made argue that neither the Cannonites nor the Republicans can hope to do anything without the other. But it is difficult to see where they can do very much by sticking together, and it is a realization of this on the part of such Republican leaders as Slemp that caused the negotiations be- tween the two groups to cease, if our Teports were correct, some time ago. In the November campaign with both the anti-Smith and Republican forces working together, Hoover carried the State by less than 14,000. And the total poll was 14,000 less than that of 1924 which shows that countless numbers of Democrats remained away from the polls altogether. All Candidates Are Dry. This year there will be no Smith or ‘Prohibition to fan the flames. All three of the candidates now seeking the Democratic nomination are dry, just as dry as even Cannon could pos- sibly ask. In fact, the only cause that Cannon will have to plead against any one of them is that they did not vote against Smith, not that they actively supported — but they would not vote against And in answer to such pleadings the Democrats will have the bishop’s fre- quent statements during the campaign I was only able to start it and leave to others to develop.” that he was a Democrat, that he was going to vote for the entire ticket ex- cept Smith, that he, in fact, did vote Ocean Hops Again Delayed by Gales Transatlantic Plane Not to | Try Flight Today, Says ™7 American. ‘Old Orchard, Maine, June 1 (U.P.).— Widespread storm ereas over the north Atlantic tonight caused another 24 hours tponement of the projected flights of. the airplanes Green Flash and Yellow Bird to Rome and Paris respectively. Tested - getting better, oceanic weather conditions seemed to be grow- ing worse and the crews of the Ameri- c@n and French monoplanes were not at all confident that they would be able to get away even on Monday. (After perusing the latest bulletin from Dr. James H. Kimball, New York nga fete Navigator Lewis A. ncey of the Green Flash, said a take off tomorrow would be out of the question. Although no definite an- nouncement was forthcoming from the French camp, it was taken for granted that the Yellow Bird also would re- main lend-bound. California Welcomes Shriners’ Convention for Representative Drewry in the | Fourth District, and Drewry was a most active campaigner for Smith. Made Declaration Often. Cannon made this declaration first at Roanoke the latter part of Septem- ber and frequently thereafter during In view of all this, it is not believed that Slemp with his wealth of political knowledge has entered into any alliance with Cannon He would, of course, not be averse to going to the Senate next year. But even should the coalition succeed in electing an anti-Smith gov- ernor this year Slemp is not likely to be so visionary as to believe that Can- ; non could deliver him enough votes to isend him to the Senate a year hence. | And any kind of a tie-up with the | politico-clergyman means a splitting of | the power in Virginia with him, a power | that he would be most likely to take | altogether once he got his hand in. |Slemp was not asleep through the years that the Democrats had the bishop on ' | their hands.

McCormick and some-time opera singer, in a blaze of jewelry tonight made her first ap- pearance as an actress in her own the- | ater, Comedie des Champs Elysee. She | played the title role of the Countess Castiglione and her acting created a di- | versity of opinion. Moments of enthu- | silastic and spontaneous applause alter- | nated with periods of oppressive silence. | Paris society packed the little the- ater, but began drifting out at the seventh of the nine short acts. Each act brought a dazzling change of cos-.| tume and the eighth act provided op- | portunity for display of the famous | emeralds. Some of the audience were said to/| have paid $1,000 a seat, for the pro- | ceeds went to a charity patronized by the Duchess of Vendome.

With the killing of a playmate and a baby recorded against him, Jimmy sat) in a detention home, oblivious to of- ficlaldom’s investigation, but reading with intense interest every line in the | newspapers about the death of Nor- man Conwill, 16, killed when he and | Jimmy scuffled for possession of a re- volver Jimmy had stolen. With even more interest, Jimmy pored over the parts of the stories that told about the warm September day five years ago when he set fire to the clothing of little Robert Endres, 21- | months-old, burning the child so se-— verely that he died in a few hours. Delving back into Jimmy’s career, police questioned Mrs. Peter Endres, mother of the dead Robert and nine other children. From her they learned Jimmy was in the habit of shooting chickens with an air rifle. “Just Grinned” at Cruelty. “when f asked him why he did such things,”” Mrs. Endres sa‘d, “he just grinned and kept shooting them. “Five years ago when he touched a match to little Robert’s dress, he said he didn’t like the child and wanted to see a bonfire.

BAD ACCIDENT AVERTED An alleged gambling establishment, said to be patronized by a high-class clientele, was uncovered last night by police in a raid on an apartment in a bullding at 1424 K street northwes:. \ Two men, Frank Travis Voorhees, 28 years old, 1460 Irving street northwest, and John Earl Douglas, 41 years old, of apartment 65, the K street address, were arrested on charges of conduct- ing a disorderly house and permitting ing. Police held nine persons as Govern- ment witnesses and turned away 20 more who came while the raid was be- ing conducted. The establishment, police said, was . one of the most elaborately outfitted Places which they have yet uncovered It was large enough to accommodate 50 persons, they said, and thousands of dollars are believed to have changed hands there nightly. The raid was made on a warrant charging a disorderly house after nu- .merous complaints had been received. A serious accident was narrowly averted when the elevator of the build- ing in which police were taking down- stairs the nine witnesses and two pris- oners became stuck between the two floor levels. The car was stalled there for five minutes with its passengers packed tightly against each other. It was finally put in motion when the trouble was located in the basement. The prisoners were taken to the First Precinct Station in a patrol wagon, and Vorhees and Douglas later were released on $800 bond each. The witnesses were told to appear in court Monday morn- in The apartment was equipped with two padded tables and one bed, which police said, were covered with a blanket tightly stretched for shooting dice. A quantity of playing cards and poker chips, and $28 in cash ‘on one of the tables were seized by the raiders. Vorhees and Douglas told police that each paid half of the monthly rent of $70.

Westlake, elderly retired phys- iclan, was arraigned today on a charge of murdering Mrs. Laura B. Sutton, Artesia, Calif., divorcee, who was as- serted by daputy sheriffs to have been the “torso murder” victim which for some time had puzzled authorities. Preliminary hearing on the charge cag set for next Wednesday morning Municipal Court. "fae formal complaint supplanted a “suspicion of murder” charge, upon which the physician had been jailed and alleges the slaying occurred ‘on Or *bout March 28.” The torso was found in the Los An- geles River April 4. Several weeks later a skull, identified. as belonging to the body, and later as the head of Mrs. Sutton, was discovered by schoolboys near where the body was found.

Special] to The Washington Post. York, Pa., June 1—James Joseph McHugh, who says he has been em- ployed eight years in the Patent Office in Washington, D. C., is under arrest here for attempting to rob the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Shirley, an aged couple. He was arrested by State Po- licemen J. C. Korman and J. W. Mce- Cormack after a number of citizens, who say they saw him trying to force an entrance into the house, held him at bay with shotguns until the police arrived. Later he was given a prelimi- nary hearing before Alderman Noah C. May. The youth did not deny the charge, but stated that he had been under the care of a physician for the last two months and that his mind apparently was blank when he committed the deed. A further jnvestigation is being made of the youth’s previous conduct. The hearing was continued until next Friday. The prisoner had an aiwomatic revolver when he was arrested. He did not offer any resistance. James Joseph McHugh had been em- ployed in the Patent Office as a typist for “going on eight years” when he left home April 30, without saying where he was going, Cornelius F. McHugh, 1907 North Capitol street, said last night. Mr. McHugh corroborated the son’s statement that he had been under the care of a physician.

SOLDIERS ARE SENTENCED Thirty years’ imprisonment was the punishment meted out to William Adams, colored, for second degree murf- der by Chief Justice Walter I. McCoy yesterday in criminal branch of the Dis- trict Supreme Court. Although indicted on a. first-degree charge, Adams was permitted to plead to the lesser offense recently when he was about to go on trial for his life. Adams shot and killed Willie Easton, also colored, last September 29 at 332 Armory place southwest. The two be- came involved in an argument over money at stake in a dice game and Adams claimed he shot Easton in fear for his own life. A two-year term was imposed on Al- fred Pryor, colored, who pleaded guilty to a charge of breaking the Jones liquor law. Pryor was arrested about two months ago by Eleventh Precinct police following a short automobile chasé through Anacostia. Frank W. Hicks and Walter M. Rob- bins, both soldiers, were ordered to prison for five years on charges of rob- bery. They were alleged to have held up Spiros Gianaris at pistol point and robbed him of $43. The soldiers pleaded that they were intoxicated and did not know what they were doing. A sentence of a year in prison was given Herbert Hoover, colored, on a charge of housebreaking and larceny. He was alleged to have broken into the office of the Griffith-Consumers Coal Co. a month ago and to have stolen a pair of eyeglasses. In passing sentence, the Court read a long criminal record to the prisoner, but Hoover insisted he had only been arrested four times pre- viously for intoxication. “There’s another Herbert Hoover over at the jail, so maybe thdt record be- longs to him,” the prisoner explained.

By JOHN L. COONTZ. Filed in the office of Theodore Cogs- well, registrar of wills for the District of Columbia, rests an aggregation of last documents unsurpassed in the country for distinguished signatures. The wills of eleven presidents, severa! justices of the Supreme Court of the United States, cabinet officers and members of Congress may be seen there. And there is also the last will and testament of Charles Guiteau, the assassin of President Garfield. One of the most distinguished wills there and one, says Mr. Cogswell, “pro- nounced by lawyers as a model, “is that of the late Woodrow Wilson. The will is typewritten on a sheet of paper 8x1l inches in size and fills about three- fourths of the page. An outstanding feature of it is its neatness, the regu- larity of typespacing, flawless diction and punctuation. The type is exceed- ingly small. One of the shortest wills on record is that of former Chief Justice White of the Supreme Court. It consists of two paragraphs: One, the will proper; the other, the attestation of witnesses. “No will,” says Mr. Cogswell, “could be more complete than this. It is without flaw.” A will “long as the proverbial arm” is that of a Miss Lacey filed some 25 years ago. It is written in long hand on what appears to be plain wall paper. Stretched out—or rather unfolded—it extended for 10 feet across the room. The will of Charles Guiteau is there. the assassin of President Garfield, drawn in Guiteau’s own hand, dated June 29, 1882, the day before his execution, which took place on the 30th, between the hours of 12 and 2. Guiteau bequeathed his body to his minister in death, the Rev. William Hicks, with the stipulation that it “not be used for mercenary purposes.” At the close of it, on the reverse page of paper on which it is executed in bold longhand, is the observation that should any one ever desire to honor his name it could be done by “erecting a monu- ment to me on which this inscription could be placed, ‘Here lies the body of Charles Guiteau, patriot and Christian. His soul is in glory.’” One discerns a faint trembling of the pen in the body of the will where reference is made to execution by Guiteau, “June 30, be- tween the hours of 12 and 2.” The files reveai the will of a 12-year- old child—the youngest person’s will to be recorded in the District. It is written on a sheet of tablet paper in pencil and one’can trace through the childish hand the sweetness of life, so soon to be withdrawn forever. This will is not signed, yet it was admitted for probate, accomplished by affidavit of impersonal witness. At the time that it was filed the District code requiring witnesses was not in effect, something that took place in 1902. The estate of Gen. U. 8S. Grant, amounting to $1,000, was administered by the District office. Grover Cleveland’s will reposes there, though his estate was largely administered from New Jersey. _. The will of John Q. Adams 1s on file among the notables of the office. Adams fell mortally stritken on the floor of the old Hall of Representatives, now Statuary Hall, and died in the room now occupied by William Tyler Page, clerk of the House. A search for papers connected with the estate of Abraham Lincoln re- vealed nothing, although his son's last will and testament is there. Robert Lincoln made his home here until his death a little over a year ago. A copy of Washington's will is on file in the office A note of modern interest is found in the Guiteau will as his body is sup- posed to be buried under the laundry floor of the District: Jail, “just a little to the east of the engine room.” The office of registrar of wills for the District of Columbia has been in existence since February 27, 1801, on which date the State of Maryland formally surrendered up the territory of which the District is comprised to- Gay. Previous to that time wills for deceased residents of the District of Columbia were filed at Marlborough, Md., and Fairfax, Va. Prince Henry of Britain Guest of Victoria, B. C.

REPUBLIC’S ECONOMIC . PROBLEM PARAMOUNT 2 Pacts Regulate Payments on $724,299,692, Now swelled by War. By WILFRID FLEISHER. A series of discussions concerning Mexican affairs between Dwigi3t WwW. Morrow, American Ambassador to Mex- ico, and administration officials, which have been under way for several days, was brought to a close here yesterday with the departyre of Ambassador Mor- row for New York on his way to resume his post at Mexico City. Conversations held between Ambas- sador Morrow and President Hoover and Secretary of State Stimson, respec- tively, have left in the hands of the administration here a complete first- hand picture of conditions in Mexico following the recent widespread revolt in that country which was overcome by the Mexican government with the active aid of the United States. Ambassador Morrow was in close contact with every phase of the revolu- tion and kept Washington constantly posted on Mexican developments in a daily flow of dispatches to the State Department. The dispatches sent by Ambassador Morrow constituted at one time practically the only source of news concerning developments below the Rio Grande, due to the censorship imposed by both the Mexican govern- ment and the revolutionists. Morrow Prompted U. S. Aid. It is no secret that it was through Ambassador Morrow’s intercession that President Hoover was actuated to move sO rapidly in support of the Mexican government, a move which played a large part in turning the tide against the rebels. When the revolution broke out Ambassador Morrow had just re- turned to his post following a leave of absence in this country. Among the mom important problems facing Mexico at present are the eco- nomic situation of the country, which received a severe setback as the result of the recent revolution with a conse- quent prejudicial effect on the debt negotiations and on the work of the American-Mexican Claims Commissions, the settlement of the agrarian contro- versy, complicated by the financial sit- uation, and the religious issue, now reported close to a settlement. The Mexican revolution has proved a severe drain on Mexico’s financial resources at a time when officials here had been led to take a particularly optimistic view of conditions and Mexico was regarded as well on the road to reestablishment of her financial credit. Estimates have placed the cost of the revolution to the Mexican gov- ernment as close to $50,000,000. Economic Problem Paramount. The economic phase of the Mexican situation is admittedly one of the most important, although officials here have always held aloof from negotiations for a debt settlement,as being exclusively a matter for the interested bankers and Mexican government. Negotiations be- tween the international committee of bankers and Finance Minister Louis de Oca, of Mexico, which were in progress at the close of last year, were rudely interrupted by the Mexican revolt and while several of the bankers are still on the gruond, the task they face is regarded as greatly complicated. It was reported last November that the negotiations between the bankers and the Mexican government had ap- proached a settlement and that Mexico was prepared to make an initial pay- ‘ment of 25,000,000 pesos ($12,500,000) ion her debt, with annual increases ranging up to 80,000,000 pesos (§40,- | 000,000). ‘in Jarvaé form had been discovered in | ;any hand in the negotiations for the i | i } | | Texas, Louisiana. North Carolina, Geor- gia, New York, Ohio and Arkansas, no actual infestation had been discovered in any of those States. Dr. Marlatt said he was glad to state publicly that most of the fruit in Florida “and certainly all the fruit that is allowed to move from Florida is perfectly good and can be eaten with safety by anyone.” Residents of Capital Two Washingtonians and one Vir- ginian will receive degrees from Cor- nell University, Ithaca, N. Y., at the annual commencement exercises June 17. A total of 910 degrees will be be- stowed. L. P. Gould, of this city, will receive a chemistry degree, and K. F. Keller- man, of this city, an electrical en- gineering degree. J. D.~- Burfoot, Petersburg, Va., will receive advance degrees. of ‘debt settlement, While officials here have disclaimed it has been evident (that the American Government would welcome any arrangement arrived at by the bankers, because of the increased financial stability which would be brought to Mexico and the resultant beneficial effect on that country and trade with the United States.

Asttet Boes Canvas He Sold For $40 Valued at $18,000 Varying Fortunes of Whistler Painting Are Revealed as Friend of Master Recognizes Picture Hanging in Gallery as One Ordered Destroyed. New York, June 1 (N.Y.W.NS.).— This is the tale of a small piece of can- vas, a small rectangle on which the Great James MacNeil Whistler daubed some paint. First it was ordered de- stroyed, then it was given away, then sold for $40 and now, if you like it that well, you can have it for $18,000, f. o. b. Ferargil Galleries. “Old Brighton,” as the canvas is calleg, is a picture of a beach bending away into a distant town. When F. N Price, who found it in London last summer, displayed it in the Ferargil Galleries, which he owns, recently, one of the first to see it was Leon Dabo, the painter. Then the story came out. Late in the eighties Dabo and Walter Sickert were students under Whistler in London. One day Whistler hauled “Old Bright- on” out of a closet, and, remarking that it reflected too much of Courbet, one of the stronger of the early Whistler in- fluences, directed Dabo to cover it with white lead so that the canvas might be used again. Instead Dabo, hoping to be given the pieee, laid it aside. A few days later, at one of Whistler’s famous Sunday breakfasts, Stephen Mallarme, a French poet, and Deubussy, the composer, spied it and immediately admired it. Whis- tler saw them and took it away, tossing it back in the closet. Dabo, fearing that it would surely be destroyed, asked for it. Whistler said, “Take it,” but Dabo again left it lying ig the studio. Some time later ‘Rodin L it and praised it. Dabo, frighte again, moved it sure enough this time. And in 1892, being tempo- rarily embarrassed by a depleted pocket- book, he sold it for $40. Its history Since then is obscure, but Price in London last summer was told that it had once belonged to Frank Dickens, formerly president of the Royal Acad- emy. May 22. HERE need be no further mystery ‘i over the “leak” in the Lenroot case. I was the “leak.” To spare my colleagues further embarrassment, I admit it. I hear my friends warning, “The rules committee will get you if you don’t watch out.” Pish! Pish! and a couple of tushes. The rules committee had better study up on the rules a while before it tries to put any one on the rack. I defy it. Likewise, I defy the Senate to try to expel me. Foolhardy? Not a bits Theré isn’t the slightest danger. Once they start this expulsion business for divulging executive session secrets, there’s no telling where it would end. In a few days there wouldn’t be a quorum of the Senate left. They say &® woman can’t keep a secret. Neither can a senator, especiail- ly if it’s an executive session secret. Most senators love to gossip about what goes on behind closed doors. Some like to tell the newspaper correspondents about executive session proceedings REPRESENTATIVE JAMES M. BECK. just to be friendly. Others take a malicious delight in “spilling the beans” as part of their campaign to abolish the medieval system of trying to conduct the public business private. I’m willing to wager my next year's mileage allowance that you can num- ber on the fingers of one hand all the senators who have rever violated the secrecy rule. . I recall one of my colleagues in par- ticular. He isn’t a senator any more, but he tg still alive. He was the world’s champion reporter of executive sessions. Nothing seemed to give him greater pleasure than to give the newspapers complete accounts of executive session proceedings. Often he would sit and take notes in an executive session and then go out and fill the waiting cor- respondents with detailed reports of what was going on inside the Senate chamber. Sometimes, if the proceedings were dull, as executive sessions usually are, he would invent a few lurid details to enliven the newspaper stories. I don’t mention his name, despite the fact he is no longer in the Senate, be- cause the so-called rules committee might try to have him boiled in oil or broken on the wheel. Yet, every one -knew about it at the time, and no at- tempt was ever made to punish him. Take Dave Reed himself, all broken out with rectitude and fairly creaking under the weight of his senatorfal toga. Dave thinks there is something sacro- sanct about the Senate rules, whereas most senators, as a matter of fact, don’t take them much mofre seriously than a lot of people do the Volstead act. Nevertheless, Young Bob La Follette presented fairly good evidence that Dave himself, doubtless in an un- guarded moment, once let drop a few precious scraps of executive session secrecy, which a sharp-eared corre- spondent promptly published. I say “in an unguarded moment,” because I’m sure Dave would never violate any of the sacred rules consciously. All in all, I consider that this hulla- balloo over the Lenroot case is just about the silliest spectacle the Senate has ever made of itself. May 23. Dropped into the House and heard James Constitutional Beck deploring the tendency of Congress to delegate its powers to the Executive. He re- ferred particularly to the flexible tariff clause in the new Hawley bill. He pre- dicted the Supreme Court would hold it unconstitutional. It was an able speech and timely. When Beck finished both sides of the House, Democrats and Republicans, arose and cheered him. Twenty-four hours later the Republican caucus de- cided to keep the flexible class in the bill. Jim Beck must realize now how Bryan used to feel when vast crowds turned out to cheer him and then voted for his opponent. This business of delegating legisla- tive authority to the President is get- ting to be more of a habit every year After a while it may be possible to abol- ish Congress entirely, which might not be a bad idea after the Senate’s per- formance over the “leak” in the Len- root case. Congressman Dallinger, of Massachu- setts, has a bill to give the President blanket authority to reorganize the Government to suit himself. I don’t know how much support it will get, but it is an interesting symptom of trend of thought in some quarters on Capitol Hill. It reminds me of the time when, during the war, we were passing the Overman act giving Woodrow Wilson authority to scramble and unscramble the executive departments at will. It was put through as a war measure. Just as we were about to vote, the late Frank Brandegee, of Connecticut, with a touch of sardonic humor, proposed an amendment which read: If there is anything overlooked in this act, authority is hereby conferred to do that too.” eee’ May 24. The temptation to make another entry in this diary about executive sessions is too strong. I yield. While it is fresh in my mind I want to tell how all this secrecy comes about. Most senators, in fact an overwhelm- ing majority of them, aren’t afraid to let the world know how they vote on any question, legislative or executive, but whenever we have a closely con- tested nomination, there are always two or three timid souls who say: “I’d Hke to vote for this nominee but if I did and !t became known back home it would hurt me in my next campaign.” Whereupon one of our obliging fixers —whom I won’t name—approaches him and say8S quietly: “All right, we'll take care of you. Give us your vote and we'll see that the roll call isn’t published.” The timid fellows are thus brought into line and the fixers are obligated to keep the roll call secret. Hence, we have such stubborn opposition to making the roll call officially public. It isn’t that the Senate has such a devout respect for its rules. For, after all, as the late Tom Marshall once sagely remarked, the rules of the Senate are just what a majority of senators make them from day to day. ” FROM A SENATOR'S DIARY Being the Day-by-Day Observations of a “Member- at-Large” Set Down for His Own Satisfaction.

It was especially true in the row over the confirmation of Thomas F, Woodlock to be .member of the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion. It was true again tn the fight over confirming Roy O. West as of the Interior in the fag-end of the Coolidge administration. Certain West- ern senators wanted to vote for West, but they were afraid the folks back home wouldn’t like it. So they agreed to vote for West on condition that the roll call be kept secret. Of course, the roll calls always leak out, and then the timid ones look pretty foolish. Irv Lenroot was op- posed because he had been a “power trust” lawyer and a “lame duck.” Probably not more than half a dozen senators are afraid to let their con- stituents know how they voted, yet, in order to protect this fearful few, we must make this most asinine exhibi- tion of ourselves. commission will bring several old familiar faces back to Washing- ton again after a long absence.

By that time they are known as “grand old men” and their constituents don’t want to throw them out. Young T.

Speaking on “Senate Secrecy” as part of the National Forum program broad- cast over WMAL and the Columbia Broadcasting System of stations last night, Senator Robert M. La Follette defended newspapers and correspond- ents. for publication of Senate debates and roll calls‘and declared that he be- lieved the end of secrecy in the Senate is near at hand. Senator La Follette praised the ac- tion of the Senate in exposing secret intrigues by high Government officials in the past and then pointed out that each of four men who were removed from Government positions after Sen- ate investigations had been confirmed to his appointment by the Senate in secret session. This, the senator asserted, ficient proof that the age-old defense of the Senate, that secrecy is necessary to allow freedom of discussion on nomi- nees for high positions, is merely an “alibi” to keep a senator’s constituents from knowing what he said or how he voted.

Elizabethton'’s so-called cl committee—a group of the leading citizens who are much ested socially, financially and in ways in the success of the rayon mill project here—is keeping its eyes .on the new development, watching cs fully for growth of the union. ide The committee isn’t exactly hostile the thought that the town’s big new industry is to become ionized, nor is it reconciled to the idea. It.is simply waiting and watching. Feel Kindly to Union. But the farmers of Happy Valley, whose daughters go tO work by the hundreds daily at the spinning mae- chines of the two big plants, are in- tensely interested. They feel kindly toward the union and what it at- tempted. The seeds of wunionizatign will fall on fertile soil among tRe workers. Out of the protracted struggle which ended a week ago, the union workers apparently have won but a single son cession—that the former strikers be reemployed without discrimination because of their union activities. .in reality, they believe they have wen much more. They lost their fight fer recognition of the union, but as they interpret the peace terms, they have won the right to organize. ; Their view, however, is not held By the rayon mill officials. “The. first man who says ‘union’-dn these mills is going to be fired,” one of the company officials told this cortes- pondent. “We are going to have go union here, except our own company union, and that isn’t a union in the union sense.” The company union is a backfire against the strikers’ union. It wes kindled by the rayon companies. Its membership at the present time is re- ported to include a large majority of the workers, The “company union” fe- mained at its various posts during the strike, or, rather, during the last two weeks of the strike, and increased its membership. When the “company union” heard that the strikers were go- ing to be reemployed, they filed indig- nant protest. In this little community, where the workers regard the company officials with a feeling somewhat akin to awe, that act, in itself, shows the extent of their courage. The “company union” fought the strikers’ union and much bitterness of feeling had developed. Families were divided between the two unions.

While airplanes, giving a strangely modern touch to the ceremonies, droned overhead, the body was carried by 32 pallbearers to a hearse and thence con- veyed over a special road to the tomb designed as the permanent resting place of the revolutionary leader. The cere- monies marked the conclusion of two weeks of observances. The ceremonies began at 3 o’clock this morning when the highest authori- ties of every branch of the Nationalist government, as well as the foreign min- isters to China, who came here for the burial, gathered at the Kuomin- tang party headquarters. Here the body had laid in state for three days since its arrival from the former capi- tal, for the special memorial cere- monies. Mme.

According to reliable age counts, the strike started without bene fit of the American Federation of Labor's blessing. It was a spontaneous, independent thing, apparently. at first, arising out of resentment of petty tyrannies on the part of certain forge men and other working conditions at the plants. ‘ It was not until after the worke had organized themselves in a ] knit association that organized labar woke up to the possibilities at E] bethton.

Penn Finishes Third; Many Meet Marks Are Excelled. By ALAN J. GOULD (Associated Press Sports Editor). | Bias FIELD, Philadelphia, June 1 (A.P.).—Four record- smashing performances, includ- ing a sensational half mile in 1:52 1-5 by Phil Edwards, of New York University, brought the fifty-third Intercollegiate A. A. A. A. track and field championships to a climax today as Stanford University won the team title for the third year in a row. The Cardinals from Palo _ Alto, coached by “Dink” Templeton, not only gave the Far West its eighth triumph over a span of nine years, but did it by the most overwhelming margin in 30 years. Not since 1899. when Pennsyl- vania’s great team won with a record total of 57 points, beating its nearest rival by 29 points, has any team cap- tured the historic meet by so one- sided a margin as Stanford. Stanford scored exactly 45%, points, tallying in nine of the fifteen events. This more than doubled the count of the nearest Cardinal rival, Southern California, which tallied 21 points, and thereby added to the rout of the East. Pennsylvania finished third, with 18% points; New York University fourth, with 14, and Yale fifth, with 1354. Cali- fornia, the third contender from the Pacific Coast, finished in a tie with Pittsburgh for sixth place with 11 pcints. Edwards Breaks Meet Record In Easily Winning Half-Mile. Except that its proportions exceeded even the rosiest expectations, there was nothing startling or unexpected in the team victory for Stanford, but there were plenty of record-breaking thrills in one of the -greatest competitive carnivals in the half-century history of the East’s blue. ribbon meet. To Phil Edwards, the dusky N. Y. U. filer and Canadian Olympic star, went the main honors as he spread-eagled his field in the haif-mile run, In de- fending his title successfully, Edwards not only shattered the 14-year-old meet record of the famous Ted Meredith, set at 1:53 in 1915, but also equaled Mere- dith’s American outdoor record of 1:52 1-5, made in 1916. He was only three-fifth of a secnod behind the world’s record of 1:51 3-5, made by Dr. Otto Peltzer, of Germany, at London in’ 1926. — Edwards was primed for the greatest race of his career, and did it as a crowd of 15,000 spectators cheered him on, running the first 440 yards in less than 55 seconds. Edwards was 30 yards in front of his teammate, Fred Veit, going into the last lap. It appeared the slim but beautifully striding negro had set off at too fast a pace. He seemed to slow down rounding the last turn, but had enough left to finish fast, breaking the tape 25 yards in front of his near- est rival, Chapman, of Bates. with Veit third. Georgetown University once again provided brilliant competition, even though its squad for this year’s meet numbered only five athletes. Three of them scored.

B. & W. O lots is promised today when Lem Owens and Bennie Womersley meet in a pitching duel on Arlington diamond, starting at 3 o’clock. Owens will take the mound for his professional team which bears his name. Womers- ley is the choice of Manager Deuter- man of the A. B. & W. Busmen. Neither team has been defeated in this section this season and neither Womersiey nor Owens have been hu- millated by defeat. Womersley, a left- hander with an enviable record over many seasons, is rated by many as the equal of the former professional right- handed speed ball nurler, who made his start some seasons back with the Silver Spring Team.

Lionels....° Corinthian Potomacs.. L ee P 1 2 Calhouns.. 2 GENERAL shake-up in the stand- ing of the teams in the junior section of the Capital City League is promised today. Five teams are undefeated to date, and two of these mvolved in the multiple dead- lock for the leadership are due to meet on No. 3 diamond at 3 o’clock. The Lionels have weathered two contests without defeat and the Potomacs, after & hard battle, emerged victorious in their lone start. The contest promises to be the most heated on the five-game program. Vic’s Sport Shop, undefeated in two starts, will face one of the gamest clubs in the division. The Langleys display- ed a fighting spirit last week that came within an ace of turning back the Lionels in the final inning. Only heroic pitchimg for the Lionels prevent- ed a victory. The Vic Nine will have trouble keeping out of the loss column today. Murphy-Ames Nine Strengthened For Game With Corinthians. The Murphy-Ames Nine, fortified with new material, will make a bid for an inaugural victory when the Co- rinthfans are engaged. The latter team hit its stride last week in scoring 25 runs against the Ty Cobbs, but failed to show any pitching strength. These clubs appear to be well matched for today’s combat. The Calhouns will also face an improved Ty Cobb club in what promises to be another meeting of evenly matched teams. Injury has hit the Mardfeldts hard. They will be without the services of their star catcher and second baseman. Jimmy MacFarlane, one of the best young catchers on the sandlots, who split his hand last week in the first inning and his loss upset the entire team. Thursday, Ray Ciomie, guardian of the second sack. was lost by a simi- lar injury. Both of these lads will be missed today when the O’Briens are met on West Ellipse diamond at 1 o'clock. The latter team dropped a close de- cision to the Potomacs last week and may fare better today. Express Nine Leads Terminal Y League The Express Team remains undefeat- ed in the Terminal Y League, but their is no prospect of a walkaway for that aggregation as the Pullman Nine is but a half game behind the leading com- bination. The title race, however, does appear to be a battle of two clubs. Terminal, Southern Railway and Post- office nines have won but one game to date. The standing of the teams follows: W. L. Pect.| Ww. L. P Express.... 6 01.000\South. Rwy. 1 5 Pullman... 6 1 .857/Postoffice.. 1 5 Terminal... 1 4 .200!

It was the second loss in as many starts for the Eastern- ers. Gallagher A. C. also got off to a win- ning start by handing the Clyde Mi- lans their second defeat of the cam- paign, 13 to 7. for the Gallaghers. Both contests were free-hitting af- fairs.

Columbia Wins Races; Collects 180 Jerseys New York, June 1 (A.P.)—Colum- bia’s powerful crews which have been sweeping the East this spring are tax- ing the capacity of their boathouse with a collection of 180 rowing jerseys donated by their opponents. According to precedent the losing crews after each race leave their jerseys with the winning crew. A sweep of the Poughkeepsie Regatta, which some of the experts rate as @ possibility for the Glendon-coached crews, would necessitate the addition of some new trophy cases. There will be nine crews in the Poughkeepsie Re- gatta.

Against this American triumph, however, Britons could point to Henry Cotton’s 6 and 5 victory over Horton Smith at Coulsdon Court and Abe Mitchell's triumph in a 36-hole medal competition at the opening of the new Selsdon Park golf course at London. In this latter event, two Americans, Ed Dudley and Johnny Far- Tell, were second and third, respectively. After his triumph over Compston,: Hagen caught a train for London, where he picked up the main body of his Ryder Cup argosy and traveled to Southampton where they were to sail for home aboard the Leviathan at dawn. : Spoils of Invasion Will Be Divided Among Team Members. Back to the United States the Amer- icans take gold and glory, fruits of the most ambitious invasion of Europe ever undertaken. The gold consists of Brit- ish, French and German coinage equi- valent to more than $11,000 in, what the boys call “real money” and was gar- nered in championships, invitation tournaments, match play events and exhibition matches Hagen, with the team, Robert Har- low, will divide the spoils of the expedi- tion in equal shares among the team members.

Charest, Now 45, to Make Bid For Veterans Net Title of U.S. By R. J. ATKINSON. FTER a year of comparative re- tirement from tournament com- petition, Clarence M. Charest, the District singles tennis champion of 1927, is back on the courts. His play in the City of Washington championships the past week was much the same that has made the chief counsel of the Bu- success, for the Ryder Cup, emblem of supremacy in professional team play, is in the possession of George Duncan and his British Team, but aside from that the Americans have successfully raided most of the trophy rooms or cash registers of the clubs where they have played. As unexpected as loss of the Ryder Cup was the American defeat today in the battle of the babes of the British and American teams, Smith and Cot- ton, at Coulsdon Court. The Joplin, Mo., pro’ tried to take a leaf out of Hagen’s book. Arrived two minutes be- fore the match was scheduled to start took a couple of practice swings and started over a course he never had eeen before. Cotton Studies His Game Like Book; Course New to Smith. That sort of thing wasn’t good encugh against the studious young lishman, Cotton, who studies his golf like a scientist and prepares for “his matches with the thoroughness of an explorer outfitting for a polar ex- pedition. , Cotton knew every blade of grass on the Surrey hills where the match was , and he profited by this knowl- edge. He also was very friendly and courteous to his American opponent, and on a number of tees there were little scenes that would have warmed the hearts of champions of Anglo- American amity, although it is unlikely that such courtesies will become gen- eral in golfing circles stich as matches between Hagen and Compston. When- ever the youngsters reached a difficult doglieg hole or when Smith seemed uncertain of the topography, Cotton would show him the correct line’ to hole and warned him of hidden rs. However, the Englishman couldn't help Smith much this afternoon when he began to drive wildly and send his seconds into the rough. Cotton had to let him go his own way to rapid MORNING ROUND. eee bs 68 4 3 4 4 5—40 4— 36 3—31—71 4 4 4—36—72 OUND. 4 5 4 4 4 4 4 N 4—39 4—36 3—35—74 4—37—73 5 5 5 4 & 44 5 TILDEN AND HUNTER HUMBLED BY FRENCH , CONTINUED FROM PAGE 15.

Cochet and Lacoste are favored about equally to win the title now held by the former and Borotra is conceded an outside chance. The result will probably go far toward deciding which of the French will earn the world’s No. 1 rank for this season. Mies Wills Falters After Protests From Gallery. Although Miss Wills is a prohibitive favorite to win the women’s coronet for the second straight year, French fans are hopeful that Mme. Mathieu will be able to perform the rare feat of winning a set from the American. Perhaps partly because of a howl from the gallery at what the fans thought was an unfair decision in her favor, Miss Wills faltered momentarily in the second set of her match with Miss Bennett. | After Helen had deliberately thrown away a point to make up for the in- justice if any, the English girl man- 4 4—29-—6 2—17—1 SECOND SET Lacoste eeneeeeeeere 7 4 Tilden 7 Tiléc.. eeeeeeee 2 5 4 eeeeeeener ee 2 i 1 THIRD SE .. $84 151 1 4 4 0 . & 442 442—44—5 4 664—48—7 Lacoste . 4 ‘ pri ola ae 2 aR ee i—20—3 4" Duoble Placements.

Louis Abrahams Pi..° sisia “srs # a : ike | reau of Internal Revenue a high rank- ing star for some few years. More than mere love for the court game has brought the one-armed vet- eran back into competition. His busi- ness is less confining at present than it was a year ago when he was ap- pointed to his’ important post in the Treasury Department. However, the principle reason for Charest’s come-back dates back to his most recent birthday. He has just ac- quired the necessary twoscore and five years necessary to qualify for the Na- tional Veterans’ singles championship. Charest Awaited Coming Of 45th Birthday. For the first time in recent years Washington will be represented in this national event. It has been one of Charest’s ambitions to compete in the veterans’ tournament, but until this season he was unable to meet the age qualifications. While most of the older net players have looked with concern on the passing seasons, Charest has been awaiting anxiously for this 1929 campaign, when he would qualify for the vets’ tourney. Now that the opportunity is at hand, Charest means to make a serious cam- paign for the title he has-coveted. His play in the City of Washington tourna- ment the past week demonstrated that he has not lost any of the clever court maneuvering that enabled him to win many local honors in past seasons. There are many who are convinced that he does not have the old time stamina to carry on under pressure, but his play the past few days has removed any such doubt from the minds of many others. Plans Campaign in Tourneys To Prepare for Title Bid. Charest will likely enter the veterans’ tournament as one of the outstanding favorites. At 45 he is still capable of playing a fast game that promises to carry him through to the championship in his first year of eligibility. Never the possessor of a strong sérvice, Char- est has spent most of his time in per- fecting his court play. His accurate placements and swift returns are still at his commend, a left arm amputated at the elbow notwithstanding. Charest’s return to local campaigning is welcomed by tennis leaders and his many friends. Last year he was unable to defend his title due to urgent bus!- ness. This season he plans to indulge in tournament competition as much as possible to prepare him for the vets’ tournament. Capt. Albert J. Gore was the last Washington player to gain recognition in the national veterans’ events, when he and Claude J. Butlin won the doubles title in 1926.

UTUAL interest of two men in M George Simpson, the Ohio State University sprinting phenom, who will compete here in the South Atlantic field and track champion- old track rivals yesterday at Annapolis where Ohio State and Navy clashed in a dual meet. Twenty-two years ago, two young- sters, one the captain of the Irish- American A. C. and the other captain of the Pastime A. C., of New York City, got into a heated discussion regarding Martin Sheridan, late world’s champion. team and contributed toward Pastime’s defeat. The argument of the two captains grew so hot that their friends had to hold them apart to prevent the exhibi- tion of a free boxing bout for the spec- tators. That was the last the pair saw of each other until yesterday at. the Naval Academy field. Wide Grins Replace Ugly Scowls Of 22 Years Ago. Frank R. Casselman, physical di- rector of the Ohio State University, was the Irish-American A. C. captain. Er- nest J. Spitzer, A. A. U. commissioner for the District, and one of the pro- moters of the forthcoming South At- lantic games, was the Pastime leader. They met once again with wide grins Sweeping their faces instead of ugly scowls. And for an hour after fond recollections and old times were dis- cussed, resulting in the cementing of relations that boyish anger once almost completely severed. The object of Commissioner Spitzer's visit to Annapolis was the discussion wita Simpson of plans for the latter's appearance in the local meet. Spitzer not only succeeded on that score, but came back with the assurance from Casselman that Ohio State would be glad to send Dick Rockaway, record- breaking hurdler, in addition to the fiymg Simpson. Rockaway Broke Accepted Mark for Low Hurdles. Rockway, who won both the low and high hurdles yetserday, broke the accepted world’s record for the 220-yard low hurdles on Saturday, May 25, in the Western Conference meet at Evans- ton, Ill. ay skimmed over the sticks in 22.8 seconds, bettering by two- tenths of a sécond the mark made by Charley Brookins, of the University of Iowa, in 1924. | When Simpson and Rockaway heard of the feud that once existed between their popular cOach and Commissioner Spitzer they expressed themselves as most anxious, now that the old en:- mies have forgotten their differences, to do all they can toward the succes3- ful staging of the South Atlantic mee".

MICHELSON, (Associated Press Sports Writer). ETROIT, Mich.,.June 1 (A.P.).— The United States Davis Cup Tennis Team today ended its brilliant American zone cam- paign by adding two more victories to its long string and completing its rout of Cuba, the last challenger on this side of the Atlantic, five matches to noth- ing. : Willmer Allison, of Fort Worth, Tex., and George Lott, of Chicago. third ranking net star of this country, painted the finishing touches of the campaign with straight set victories over the outclassed Cubans. Allison defeated Gustavo Vollmer, 6—3, 6—2, 7—5, while Lott, competing on the team for the first time this year, bested Herman Upmann, 6—4, 6—3, 6—3. Lott and Allison Play Their Best Tennis With Nothing at Stake Today’s singles matches were mere formalities as the U. S. team had clinched the zone title Thursday and Friday with victories in two singles and doubles events. But instead of slowing up, Lott and Allison played their best tennis and as a result the team record for the entire campaign against Can- ada, Japan and Cuba totalled 14 matches won and one lost. It was Japan’s team which spoiled the record. By its victory, the United States team will represent the Americas ibroad, meeting the winners of the interzone European finals for the right to challenge France for the Davis Cup, which it has held for the past two years. The team expects to sail Wed- nesday with Allison, John Hennessey, of Indianapolis, John Van Ryn, of Eas¢ Orange, N. J., and Fitz-Eugene Dixon, nonplaying captain. It will not be known until Monday whether Lott can accompany the team, as he is con- cerned with his studies at the Univer- sity of Chicago. Cubans Able to Cope With U. S. Stars Only at Rare Intervals. It was the same old story in today’s | Singles matches, Lott and Allison win- ining as they pleased. They were mas- ‘ters of the play from the first serve, and the Cubans were able to cope with them only at rare intervals, Vollmer, Cuban singles put up the best battle of the entire competition in the finals, however. After dropping the first two sets be- cause of his. eagerness and habit of falling in traps, he threatened Allison. 'At one time in the third set, he needed | but a single point to wint it, but he threw it away with two successive double faults and by driving what should have been an easy return into the net. Then Allison showed his great superiority by winning the next two games, 4—1, 4—0, to take the third and jeciding set. ee ey Smith New Commodore Of Telephone Boat Body Conrad C.

National Soccer Body To Name D. C. Champion Although the season has been com- pleted many weeks, the champion of the Washington Soccer League has yet to be named. Clan MacLennan was thought to have a clear title to the honors at first, but the Concords put in a claim and were champions for a day. Other disclosures apparently eliminated Concord, and then British United, winners of the city title, put in a claim. Clan MacLennan’s claim for the honors was disputed when it was found that George Faulds and Willie Bryden had signed with an Ohio club before registering with the D. C. eleven. Concord got into difficylties when Heise, its goal keeper, signed with a Baltimore outfit. The executive committee of the United States Football Association as- sisted the local association in its at- tempt to untangle the situation, but it finally became so involved that the entire matter will be referred to the annual meeting of the U. S.'F. A., which will be held in Cleveland June 14 and 15. A delegate from the local association will attend, Legion to Send Team To Camp Perry Shoot The American Legion will enter a team in the national rifle matches which open at Camp Perry, Ohio, on August 25.

Gen. M. A. Reckord, executive vice president of the association, has received a letter from James F. Bar- ton, national adjutant of the legion, notifying him that the veterans will send their best marksmen to the big range at Camp Perry. As soon as the team captain is named, preliminary contests to select candidates for the team will be held in all parts of the country. The Legion Team will be one of more than 100 rifle and pistol teams which will participate in a program of marks- manship events, extending over a pe- riod of three weeks. Officials of the N. R.

The amateur champion and two friends were driven to shelter by a thunderstorm that came up while they were playing a practice round. All three sprinted for the clubhouse, Just ‘ as they approached the building, the chimney was struck and one of the fall- ing bricks glanced off the umbrella Jones carried and bruised his left shoulder. An immediate examination showed the bruise was of little consequence, and a zealous club member placed the brick among the club’s trophies for permanent preservation.

Answered by BOR CRUICKSHANK, Winner of Los Angeles, San Antonio, Hot Springs, North-and-South Open Championships, 1927; Maryland Open, 1928. The pitch shot is always a safe way to a green, but the run-up is often better if you have a clear space to the green It is also easier. In plaving a run-up,a straight-faceti club should te kept low. The pitch and run, a ‘ombination of both, is also a very useful shot, but rather difficult.

Herbert Jaques, chairman of the implements and balls committee of the association, contributes to the current number of the American Golfer a page article Jauding the new ball, charac- terizing it as “distinctly a refreshing ball to play, better suited and emi- nently fair to the average golfer and a little more exacting for the exper*.” In the matter of distance, it is claimed that the records show a loss of on!'y 5 or 6 yards for the hard-hitters as compared with the present ball and 3 or 4 yards for those players who drive about 180 yards. The gain for the average player, it is asserted, will be in the fact that the ball sits up on the ground in the fairway and does not sink in the rough. Then comss this further commendation: “Mashie play with the new ball is a delight. The ball rises a _ little higher, drops with a sharper trajectory, and rolls less after striking the ground. When hit lower against a light breeze, it will hold like a spade or mashie- niblick shot, and from a down-hill lie it can be controlled with greater ease. So in mashie play, also with mashie-niblick and niblick, the player wil: experience easier control. Larger Ball Aid Mediocre Players on Chip Shots. “In chip shots just off the green, the larger size and sighter weight give a combination that will save the medi- ocre player strokes on every round. In the rough this ball does not burrow deep. It is easier to explode or play cleanly from a bunker. It is a beauti- ful putting ball, rolls true, and, if any difference in hitting strength is needed, it is apparent only on uphill putts.” In the same magazine Bernard Dar- win, the distinguished British golf writer, describes an experimental round with a larger and lighter ball than the C atte must be given to *he exactly the same as the new American ball. The latter is 1.68 inches in diam- eter and 1.55 ounces in weight, while the ball used on the West Hill course in .Surrey, England, was 1.62—1.55. While the players were, generally speaking, favorably impressed, their game demonstrated that there was an appreciable loss of distance when the »4all was played against the wind, and,” acds Darwin, “as far as its object is to restore the lost glories of the full wooden shot played up to the green it must be said to fail. The general opinion was that against the wind there was a loss of 20 to 25 yards in a full drive and there was also loss of distance in a cross wind.” He admits that the ball is easier to pick up with & brassy and this gives the average golfer, who only too frequently misses or half-tops his brassy shots, a chance to play his second more advantageously. On the- other hand, the ball is said to respond much more quickly than the present ball to a little hook or Slice, its direction being influenced by even a slight. breeze; that the distance obtainable with irons against the wind is appreciably less than with the ortho- dox ball, and that the general standard of putting was very low. “It ought not,” concludes Darwin, “as it seems to me, to be either adopted or rejected until more golfers know more about it from practical experience than they do at present.” New Ball is Adopted After 5 Years of Experimenting. The answer of the United States Golf Association to this concluding observg- tion of the British golf writer is that experiments have been conducted dur- ing the past five years, the conclusion being that the new ball “best meets all requirements of play.” It should be added in pagsing that the Royal and Ancient last April decided against any change in the present standard, being evidently unconvinced by the assertions of the American authorities. So far as this section is concerned, very few golfers know anything about the new ball from actual experience. An exception to the rule is E. 8. Eynon, who in days gone by, was one of the leading golfers in this district. “I have played with the new ball,” he said last week, “and I admit that I do not like it. The claim that it sits up on the fairway did not impress me. In the first place, the difference in size, 6-100 of an inch, is almost infinitesimal When you hold the two balls in your hand it is difficult to tell which is the old ball and which is the new one. There is also a considerable loss of distance when pleyed with the wood or with irons. Personally, I do not think the change is a good one, but, of course, we will have to take the new ball because the golf officials have im- posed it upon us.” Harry A. Grant covered himself all over with glory last Sunday on the In- dian Spring course. In the morning round, while playing with Von Stein- ner, Shropshire and Lockwood, he made a birdie 4 on number seven, the water | hole. In the afternoon, while playing with Von Steinner, Brownell and Eng- lish, he shot an eagle 3 on the same hole, This is the record of the course for the seventh hole for one day—a birdie and an eagle by the same player. Of course, the back tees were not used, but the drives were from the regular playing tees. | Swift Describes 2d Hole At Washington C. C. in Poem. Everybody who has played the course of the Washington Golf and Country Club knows that the second hole jis de- cidedly tricky, to say the least. It is situated on a promontory with steep in- clines on all sides and with numerous traps, so that a ball which does not stay on the green is severely penalized The last number of the Tee, the monthly publication of the club edited by Ernest J. Swift, contained a poetical description of this hole, concluding 4s follows: This second hole, I'll say to you, Can cost you strokes a-plenty; Sometimes I’ve seen it made in 2 But oftener in 20. Maj. J. F. Coupal, formerly personal physician to President Coolidge, re- cently returned from Texas and brought back with him a very high golf tee. present standard, although it was not; hil, Even with this advantage, the drive which John Wessels made from the eighteenth tee last week was phenomenal.. The ball came to rest just short of the green, covering fully 350 yards, the longest drive ever seen on the eighteenth hole, Bannockburn Champ Out Of Henry-Williams Event. Considering that the country has gone dry—or is supposed to have gone dry—it is remarkable how many silver flasks, cocktail shakers, cocktail cups and similar “wet” goods, are included in the prizes awarded nowadays at all the golf tournaments. As a matter of fact, the players work harder to win these prizes than anything else. W. J. Strobel, champion of the Ban- nockburn Club, has been eliminated from the competition now in progress on the Bannockburn course for the Henry-Williams Cup. Strobel, with a handicap of 11, met Russell N. Low, whose handicap is 25, in a Match-play round last week and was defeated and 4. Low hi@ a card of 44—46—00, while Strobel could not do better than 43—41—-84, being 3 down at the turn. All of which goes to show that even the best players are up against it when they meet an opponent to whom they have to concede eleven strokes in an 18-hole round. The winners in the last tournament of the Washington Dental Golfers As- sociation were »s follows: First low gross, Dr. Thomas D. Webb, 84; second low gross, Dr. B. 8S. Taylor, 87; first low net, Dr. Clarence Kelly, 889—18—71; sec- ond low net, Dr. 8. C. Hopkins, 97—21 —76; third low let, Dr. H. P. Cobey, 94—17—77. In the monthly tournament for May at the Columbia Country Club last month there was - battle royal in the second sixteen between Carter B. Keene and Paul Dulaney. The scoring was not of championship caliber, but at no time was there a difference of more than one hole between the contestants. The match was all square at the fifteenth tee, and thereafter every hole was halved—although both players threw } away chances to win—until the twenty- first hole, the third on the card, was reached. On this hole Dulaney was on the green with his second shot, while Keene, with his third, was close to the icup. Then, Dulaney ran down a putt from the edge of the green for a birdie 3 and won the match. 30-Foot Putts for Birdies Too Strong for Keene. “When they run do fo: birdies,” said Kee strong for me.” In the recent Indian Spring tourna- ment Harry D. Cashmar was about to play his third shot, an approach to the green, on thé eighteenth sole. Around the green was a crowd of interested spectators who had already finished their qualifying round, “I am going to lay this ball close to the pin,” said Cashman to his caddy, “and then I want you to go and pick it up and come back toward me with it in your hand.” Of course the caddy did as he was di- rected, whereupon Cashman burst forth in righteous indignation. “Now I’m disqualified,” he exclaimed, “and I wanted to play in this tourna- ment.” The spectators were sympathetic. A member of the golf committee insisted that the ball should be replaced. “The caddy ought to have known better,” he said to Cashman, “and we are not go- ing to let you be disqualified.” But Cashman insisted that he wanted no discrimination in his favor, although ne continued to moan over his hard uck. 3 Then the golf committeeman, still sympathetic, asked a question. “What would have been your score if you had | holed out?” he asked. “One hundred and four,” said Cash- man, with a broad grin. Whereupon everybody chased him into the clubhouse. a 30-foot putts a‘they get too _Nocholson Scores Ace on 2d ‘On Washington C. C. Course. W. Carlton Evans had a fine score of 72 on the Columbia Club course last Wednesday, two strokes over par. Hig score was all the more remarkable be- cause, although he started with birdies on the second, fourth and fifth holes, he played the last four holes of the first mine rather indifferently, but ended with 36. Coming in he had even 4s for another 36, his card being as follows: 43424653 5—36 45534433 5—36—72 Joshua W. Carr was twelfth hole of the Columbia course last week with Edward Baltz. His brassy shot, badly pulled, traveled to the left and struck Baltz, who was standing not more than 30 yards away. Baltz admitted that the ball had hit him with considerable force but no- where could the ball be found, al- though the search lasted fully fifteen minutes. The hole was played out and then, on the thirteenth tee, Baltz discovered Carr’s ball in his hip pocket. No damage was done. playing the Henry D. Nocholson, one of the younger players of the Washington Golf and Country Club, scored an ace on the second hole last Sunday. The ball rolled ten feet across the green before dropping into the cup. John S. Blick scored a birdie four on the seventh hole of the Indian Spring course last week in unusual fashion. His hard hit low ball hit the surface of the lake in front of the tee and made two distinct skips from the water to the fairway beyond, Blick then reach- ing the green on his second stroke and holing out in two putts. His good luck was of no avail for his opponent halved the hole with a birdie made in a more legitimate way. In the women’s nine-hole medal play handicap tournament at the Bannock- burn Club last Thursday Mrs, Robert F. Cole, with a card of 43, won the low gross prize and with her handle cap of 6, net 37, also won the low net. As no contestant wag allowed to win two prizes, Mrs. Cole selected the low “All the golfers down in Texas,” he says, “use this high tee.

The sum involved will run to about $50,000, according to President Mothwurf, of the Bemberg and Glantz- stoff companies. In addition, the rayon mills paid the deputy sheriffs, a force that ran as high as 100 men at times. That item, $30,000, likewise will come back to the mills from the treasury of Carter County. But the strikers didn’t stop ‘to analyze the payments, at first. They “oniy knew that the soldiers and deputy sheriffs were on the Bemberg-Glantz- stoff pay rolls, and that inflamed them stil) further. As much as any other factor, per- haps, that started the nightly house- burnings, bombings and rifle firing. The rayon mills planted their spies in the union ranks and, presumably, the union planted its spies in the mills. Each side knew pretty well what the jother was doing. A. single illustration will disclose the extent of this Knowledge. Certain per- ‘sons, angered at the progress of the trials of 50 strikers on the charge of violating an injunction against picket- ing, were said to have developed a plot to blow up the Carter County Court- house with dynamite. The time was lights to Jall. The trials will start soon, in all like- lihood. and once again the Elizabeth- ton date line will rise to the first page. To Be Tied Up With A, F. of L. It is in this atmosphere that the American Federation of Labor and the Textile Workers of America are work- ing to further the cause of organized labor in the South’s textile industry. Under tactful, patient leadership, the differences between the former strikers’ union and the company union may dis- appear. Few persons here expect any- thing else. They are looking forward, with mixed emotions, to the day when the union—the regular union, tied up with the American Federation of Labor —will be strong in Elizabethton. And few persons fee] that that day is far distant. That, apparently, is the first step to be taken in the organized labor cam- paign. Afterward the union will consid- er wages, hours and working conditions. The present wage scale, perhaps, is rep- resentative of that in the Southern tex- tile mills of the better class.

Pani, as minister of finance. This agreement is commonly referred to as the La- mont-Pan! agreement. The debt of Mexico, which was fund- ed by these agreements, together with the interest due to June 30 last, rep- resenting Mexico’s total obligations, amounted to $724,299,692, comprising princrpal and interest on government and state loans totaling %266,835,237, principal and interest on railway loans totaling $250,791,262, and interest in arrears since 1914 amounting to $206,- 873,193 Previous to the recent revolution American claims before the American- Mexican Claims Commission amounted to over 6,000, totaling between $700,- 000.000 and $800,000, Lt is estimated that the new claims arising out of the latest revolt will add: between $5,000,- 000 and 810,000,000 to the claims bill. The General Clairis Commission, dealing with claims other than revo- lutionary ones, adjourned last week, having been intermittently at work in| Mexico City since last ~ September,. while the Special Claims Commission, charged with the adjudication of revo-~ lutionary claims, has not yet met. Am- bassador Morrow is known to have fa- vored. postponement of consideration of the claims urtil Mexico should re- gain its financial footing. : The state of Mexico’s finances also enters largely into the negotiations for settlement of the controversy concern- ing the application of the Mexican agrarian law. Cases in dispute have been dealt with by Ambassador Mor- row, one by one, but lack of money to compensate American nationals who had been deprived of their property has formed one of the greatest obsta- cles to the solution of this problem. Appointment of Archbishop Ruiz Flores as apostolic delegate to the Holy See foreshadows a ible early set- tlement of the religious controversy. Although officials here never have ad- mitted that Ambassador Morrow has played any part in bringing the Mexi- can government and the Vatican closer together, his particularly close association with the Mexican governa- ment has placed him in a favorable position to intercede in the dispute. _ te RR en ne Other Precious Stones Members of Amsterdam Diamond Exchange Thirty-siz Years at 935 F Street We Shall Begin Our Regular Promptly at 9 a. m.

Wheel Caused Break, Belief. Persons near the scene of the blast said Christopher heard steam escaping and ran into the basement, apparently arriving just as the flywheel came off the machine. However, firemen ad- vanced the theory that the pieces of the wheel caused the break in the steam line. Debris was scattered throughout the basement of the laun- dry but the remainder of the building Was undamaged.

HIGHWAY TO 200 PLANNED With new appropriations becoming available on July 1, the Office of Pub- lic Buildings and Public Parks is mak- ing plans ior beginning some new con- struction work this summer. One of the principal items on the list is the laying of sidewalks and rail- ing along the seawall from Hains Point to the Engineers Wharf, along che Washington Channel. Congress has ap- propriated $40,000 for the project. Altogether $125,000 will be spent for improvements in Potomac Park and Rock Creek Park. More than $50,000 of this will be expended on a seawall at the end of New Hampshire avenue, where the Titanic Memorial is to be erected. * 7 Part of the appropriation will be used in constructing a road from the Zoological Park to Massachusetts ave- nue. This will bring the proposed link- ing up of Rock Creek Park with Poto- ranc Park a step nearer fulfillment. The Public Buildings Parks Office expects to begin work soon after July 1 on draining the ground in the Sylvan Theater on the Monument Grounds. Electric lights will be erect- ed in the theater to light it during night performances there. For this Congress has given $14,000. All of the projects that the office has under way are ing rapidly. These include the foundations for the bridge over Boundary Channel in the proposed Mount Vernon highway sys- tem, Meridian Hill Park, the grading of section C in Anacostia Park and the laying of sidewalks at Sherman Circle.

SCHEDULE LAID TO AVOID TRAFFIC INCONVENIENCE Treasury Place to Be Utilized for Diverting Autos From Closed Sections. Carefully laid plans for the repaving of Fifteenth street northwest, from Pennsylvania to New York avenue, to reduce to the minimum inconvenience to traffic during the time the work 1s being done, were made public yesterday by Capt. Herbert C. Whitehurst, high- way engineer and coordinator of the District Engineer Department. The repaving work will be done in sections and special fast-setting con- crete and other materials will be used to speed up the work, Whitehurst said. The entire job is expected to be com- pleted within a month from the day the first bit of the old paving is removed. Extra men and machinery will be turned to the task whenever they can be used to advantage, and consideration is being given to a scheme calling for pushing the job for- ward day and night. This latter pro- posal, however, is expensive and may not be practicable for that reason. One Side of Street at Time. Under the plans worked out by high- way department officials, the east side of Fifteenth street will be begun and completed before the west side is touched. Both F and G streets will be kept open to traffic most of the time the work is being done and one or the other of these streets will be open to both east and west traffic throughout the job. The work, which is to be begun on June 10, will be pushed rapidly. Re- moval of the worn out paving on the east side of Fifteenth street will be the first job. Machinery and crews will be started north from Pennsylvania avnue and south from New York ave- nue. When the paving is removed at the intersections of F and G streets, and Public: boards will be laid immediately so that traffic can cross. Laying of the base for the new pav- ing will be begun at the south end of the street, from Pennsylvania avenue to F street. The second section will be from New York avenue to F street, including the G street intersection. While this intersection is being paved the F street crossing will be open to east and west traffic. When the G street crossing again is open to traffic the restriction against left-hand turns will be removed temporarily and the F street intersection will be repaved. When that is completed both will be opened to traffic. Treasury Place to Be Used. In the meantime, westbound traffic on Pennsylvania avenue will be barred from Fifteenth street, but will be sent through Treasury place and northward on East Executive avenue, or south around the White House, as the mo- torist prefers. The west side of the street will be started from the northern end, the first division calling for completion of the repaving work as far south as G street. Then attention will be given the re- maining section to midway of the inter- section of Fifteenth street, Treasury place and Pennsylvania avenue. During the work on the intersection, westbound traffic on Pennsylvania ave- nue will be sent north on Fifteenth street. Eastbound traffic will be per- mitted on the south side of Treasury place. The last division of the work will be the repaving of the south half of the Fifteenth street intersection with Treasury place and the Avenue. Dur- ing that time, eastbound traffic will be barred from Treasury place, but westbound Avenue traffic will be per- mitted to use that street. E street, however, will be thrown open to east- bound traffic. Five-Day Job at Crossing. It is estimated by Capt. Whitehurst that, with good weather, the repaving of the intersections will require about five days each. It requires three days for the base to set after it is laid. On been made to the | at 15 during the administration of President Andrew Johnson, while T. C. Theaker was Commissioner of Patents. Working for a time in the model room and then in application division, he joined the examining force about 1885 and was elevated to his present posi- tion about five years ago. “I’ve enjoyed it all so much, and my life has been so wrapped up in patent work that I haven't made any plans when I am retired,” he explained. “I’m now on my fourth extension, which will run out in January. I'd rather not talk about retirement, though.” Mr. Hutchinson makes his home with his wife at the Casco Apartments, 12 Third street southeast. There are two children, Mrs. Wilson Smith, of Wimni- peg, Canada, and E. P. Hutchinson, connected with the income tax division of the Treasury Department in Minne- apolis, top of that goes another layer, called the “binder,” which will require an additional day. Laying of the top will require probably a day or pehaps two, be used are such that the intersections will be thrown open to traffic six hours after the laying of the top layer has been completed. Several hollow spots beneath present paving have been discovered and if many of these are found or those existing are very deep these may add to the length of time required to complete the job. The curb lines on all the intersec- tions will be changed from the present 10-foot radius to a larger radius. The turn of the southwest corner of Fif- teenth street and Pennsylvania avenue, opposite the northwestern end of the Treasury, will be made a 35-foot radius, giving room for another lane of traffic turning into Fifteenth street from the avenue. The other curb lines will be changed to a 20-foot radius. Signs warning motorists that streets are closed to through traffic will be placed a block away from each closed intersection. : Disabled Veterans Elect New Chiefs E. C. Babcock Named Head of Capital Department at Annual Meeting. E. O. Babcock, a member of the Rainbow Division during the war and now of the Civil Service Commission, was elected commander yesterday at the anunal convention of the District of Columbia Department of the Dis- abled American: Veterans in the Dis- trict Building. Other officers elected are: Senior vice commander, G. A. Kelser; junior vice commander, F. H. Thomas; treas- urer, H. L. Sotheron; adjutant, Earl Hendricks; departmental representa- tive to national convention at Detroit, Capt. Fred Kochli, the retiring com- mander. National Commander Millard W. Rice, of Minneapolis, a visitor at the con- vention, congratulated the department on one of the most successful years in its history. He outlined the program for the national convention, at which the department plans. to propose a number of resolutions on legislative and rehabilitation questions. Columbia Heights Speech Scheduled. Fred A. Emery will address the Col- umbia Heights Citizens Association Tuesday night at the Columbia Heights Christian Church on “Sidelights on Earlier Columbia Heights.” He is ex- pected to give particular reference to the neglected site of Columbian Col- lege, the forerunner; of George Wash- ington University.

BALLOT IS 27 TO 24 AFTER 2-HOUR DEBATE Benning Association Is Voted Aid in Fight Over Road. Assessments. The Citizens’ Forum of Columbia Heights last night won a seven months’ fight before the Federation of Citizens Associations, when it was accepted into membership. The question, which has been inter- mittently before the federation for months in.one form or another, was brought before the federation meet- ing in the board room of the District Building Mst night by A. H. Gregory, chairman of the membership ¢commit- tee. The committee recommended that the new -.and insurgent association, which represents a revolution against the Columbia Heights Association, not be admitted. James G. Yaden, former president of the federation, offered a substitute mo- tion that the new association be ad- mitted. There followed a two-hour battle. Points of order, personal privilege and other parliamentary gestures were re- sorted to by delegates. Once Louis Gelbman moved the previous question, but the delegates were not through talking and Geblman’s motion was lost, 13 to 30. Motion Carries, 27 to 24. The upshot of the debate, in which more delegates took part, it is believed than on any other question ever brought before the federation, was that Yaden’s motion was carried, 27 to 24, and Dr. George C. Havenner, president of the federation and presiding officer, declared the forum admitted to mem- bership. Maryland consumers of District water must not be given a preferential rate over District. consumers, Thomas J. Llewellyn declared in a report, and that seemed to be the consensus of the fed- eration in voting on the question of ex- tension of the District water supply to nearby Maryland communities : Secondarily, the real fight came on the question of the assesments levied by the District against property owners for the widening of Benning road. The Benning Association declared that it needed help to fight the unjust assess- ments levied as benefits against prop- erty owners along the route of the road and apealed to the federation for help. Harry N. Stull scored the condemna- tion jury, declaring that it had ad- judged benefits of $90 against “a strug- gling missionary church four blocks from the road that is to be widened.” William McK. Clayton took exception to a criticism of the jury which made the awards, declaring that it was a proper procedure for the jury to assess benefits where benefits belonged, al- though he did not contend that bene- fits were properly assessed in this speci- fic instance. Clayton declared that the present procedure whereby the jury might assess benefits as it saw fit and damages as it saw them was better than the old system under which the | jury had to make the damages and ben- | If there was to be a/| efits balance. change in the law, Clayton said, it would be another matter. Benning Association to Be Aided. The Federation cried its approval of the fight of the Benning association end authorized Dr. Havenner to ap- point a special committee to aid the , association. This committee was named as follows: William McK. Clayton, Harry N. Stull, son. Clayton proposed that Lodge be declared that in the absence of he named Clayton temporary chairman. The question was brought before the Federation by Thomas J.

Clayton Emig, of the Dupont Circle Citizens Association, attempted to have the federation adopt a report on airports, in the course of which his committee discussed and, apparently sought to regulate, street car fares and Similar matters, but the report raised a storm of protest and the meeting was brought to a close when R. J. Bren- nan made a pojnt of no quorum, which | was sustained by a roll call, and Clay- |ton moved adjournment. 300 Rail Surgeons Here for Parley B. & O. Group to Discuss Modern Methods of Treating Injured. With the object of bringing out the most modern methods for treatment of persons injured around’ railroad properties, and with special stress upon the prevention of serious consequences, 300 members of the Association of Railway Surgeons of the Baltimore & Ohio Railway Co. will meet in conven- tion at the Mayflower Hotel Wednes- day for a three-day session.

Henderson, 21, of 636 Eighth street southeast, and Miss Verdery For- sythe, 19. of 3213 E street southeast The Rev H. L. Schlinke was named to Officiate.

Fowler can remember, the Nationa] Capita] has been free of typhus, but now the dread disease, a contagious fever; has made its reappearance. One man is dead and another is in- fected, but Dr. Fowler says the quaran- tine was prompt and there is-no dan- ger of an epidemic. The person who died was Robert Lee, 48, an employee at the experiment station of the Agricultural Department at Bethesda, Md. Lee died at the George Washington University Hospital, where both cases were quarantined Friday night. Lee had been handling sheep shipped here from Montana. At first it was suspected he had Rocky Mountain or spotted fever, but Dr. James G. Cum- ming, chief of the Bureau of Prevent- able Diseases, finally determined the man was suffering from typhus. The other case is that of Martin Minnix, 31, 2112 F street northwest, a laborer at the hygiene laboratory of the United States Public Health Ser- vice. J. D. Byer, superintendent of George Washington University Hospi- tal, said yesterday he had been in- formed Minnix was in no immediate danger and had a chance of recovery.

Boy, 8, Vanishes in Store; Another “Lost”’ in Mixup Police Seek Child Who Becomes Separated From Mother; Richmond Youth Awaits Parents in Hotel Lobby as They Conduct Hunt for Him. Police last night were searching for @ boy, 8 years old, lost from his mother in a store yesterday afternoon, while the parents of a second youngster, 16 years old, were rejoicing because their son ‘had been located after a mysterious absence of several hotirs, due to a mix- up in names at a hotel. William Thorn, 8 years old, son of Mrs. Addie Thorn, of 2069 Park road northwest, became separated from his mother in a 5 and 10 cent store on Seventh street about 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon and police were asked to be on the lookout for him. They were re- quested, for some reason, to notify Mrs. Nyla Waymel, whose tel@phone num- ber was given as Columbia 2206-W. Another William caused his parents considerable anxiety when he failed to appear at the Wardman Park Hotel after attending the baseball game be- tween Washington and St. Louis at Griffith Stadium. He is William Marshall, 16-year-old son of R. 8. Marshall, vice president of * 'the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad. The Marshalis’ home is in Richmond, Va., but they maintain a permanent resi- dence at the hotel. William, the latter, arrived in Wash- ington yesterday morning from Rich- mond and went to the ball game with his uncle, John Marshall, of the May- flower Hotel. The uncle had to leave early, and, believing that the boy, who lived in Washington for some time in his youth, knew his way about the city. left the youngster to enjoy the remain- der of the game. Young Marshall got back to the hotel safely, but a bellboy conducted him to the wrong suite, another Marshall fam- ily being registered at the hotel. This family happened to be out, and the boy, thinking his parents were absent, went in the lobby, awaiting the return of his family. Meanwhile Mr. and Mrs. Marshall notified the police, fearing an accident had befallen William. How- ever, at 10:30 o’clock last night they located one another and an impromptu reunion was enacted. attempting to cross the street in front |: MING HER LOVER 5 SCE RES Man Is Released by Police After He Denies Blame. for Tragedy.

The experts of Germany and the creditor nations have agreed. upon a reparation plan intended to supersede the Dawes plan. The new scheme would call for average payments by Germany amounting to $492,000,000 annually for 58 years. These payments would wipe out all reparation claims and provide for the costs of the armies of. occupation and the extinguishment of the‘ allied debts to the United States. The new plan would go into effect September 1. Under the new arrangement the creditors of Germany would collect all their reparation claims out of the pay- ments of the first 37 years. These creditors would then depend upon Ger- many to pay installments for an addi- tional 21 years to cover the liquidation of the European debts to the United States. The experts of France, Great Britain, Belgium and Italy have made sure that their respective governments shall be first to collect money from Germany, _ leaving the United States to the distant ' owed by the late allies. future. The American experts have agreed to this arrangement. In the meantime the French govern- ment delays consideration of the Mellon- Berenger agreement providing for ad- justment of the French debt to the United States. If the proposed agree- ment with Germany should be accepted by the various governments, including the United States, France might then possibly agree that Germany, beginning $8 years hence, should be permitted to pay France’s debt to this country. Premier Poincare may insist that the United States shall ratify the agreement with Germany before he will ratify the Mellon-Berenger agreement. The United States Government has repeatedly declared that it will not look to Germany for payment of the debts “No collective bargaining” has been the rule heretofore insisted upon by the United States. Great Britain, Belgium and Italy have bound themselves to pay what they owe to this country, without regard to what they may collect from Germany. France has failed and refused to bind itself to pay its debt to the United States. The arrangement made by the Paris /committee.of experts is an attempt to transfer the burden of the allied debts to Germany’s shoulders after Germany "shall have paid off all reparation claims. Germany feels no moral obligation to | pay the debts owed by the allies to the , United States. The United States feels no mora! obligation to hold Germany ac- countable for these debts. An arrangement to become effective 88 years hence, with no moral obligation on either side, is not worth the paper ‘upon which it is written. If accepted by the United States it would be equivalent *to cancellation of the debts owed by Europe and the imposition of a cor- responding burden upon the taxpayers of the United States. All the nations of Europe can evade payment of their debts if the United _ States will consent, but the United States _ €an not evade payment of that debt. If Europe does not -pay it American tax- ? —~payers must. The United States bor- __. rowed that money from its people, and it must pay them back. They hold its bond. | It is proposed to “commercialize” a .40 .00 Daily Only. .00 the allies. Bonds are to be sold to indi- viduals, including Americans, if they will buy. These individuals will have no means of compelling payment of the bonds. In case of default by Germany the debts owed to the United States would not only go by the board, but indi- vidual Americans would be “stung” for all the bonds they had been induced to purchase, on the plea that they were promoting peace and friendship in | Europe. Thirty-eight years hence, when Ger- many shall have recovered her strength and paid off everything that she 1s morally bound to pay, it is a moral cer- tainty that she will refuse to con- tinue payment of huge annual in- stallments merely to oblige the allies who owe the United States. The German people will support their government in repudiating the arrangement, which is immoral and unjust and not a proper charge against Germany. The United States will not resort to war to compel payment. Thus the allies will wriggle out of their debts to the United States, and this Government and its taxpayers will find themselves “holding the bag.” Whatever the European governments may do in ratifying the agreement hatched up by the committee of experts, it ought to be evident that the people of the United States will not agree to it. Any proposal laid before Congress to sad- dle a staggering debt upon the taxpayers of the United States in order to relieve European debtors is already doomed. The bargainers in Europe who hope to saddle their debts upon the people of the United States will have to try again. COME BACK, ARLINGTON. There always has been an element in Arlington County favoring retrocession of that part of the “ten miles square,” lying across the Potomac, that was re- linquished by the District in 1846. Re- cently sentiment for retrocession seems to have grown and the issue is now ac- tively debated. Those who would re- join the District point out that water, gas, electricity and telephone service eost ‘considerably more in the county than they do in the District. attention to the fact that sewers can be installed only after bond issues have been floated. They complain that streets and sidewalks stand unfinished. Those who are opposed to retrocession point to the benefits of “home government” and suffrage. Washington will watch the campaign for retrocession with great interest. It would be more than glad to welcome back within its confines that part of the “ten miles square” that now lies in Virginia. Its interest in the matter is not wholly unselfish. Greater Washington needs in- creased area under a single government if it is to develop symmetrically into the world capital. The residents of Arling- ton County enjoy the privilege of suf- frage, but their government is no better as a result. On the other hand they must pay exorbitant prices for public services and their insurance rates are high. They do not have the protection of an adequate, modernly-equipped fire- fighting force, nor arg their towns prop- erly policed, lighted or sewered. Washington offers that part of Arling- ton County that once was within the District good government, unsurpassed public recreational facilities, adequate fire and police protection, good streets and sidewalks and reasonably priced public utility services. The county should weigh carefully the advantages of becoming again part of the National Capital. Washington is prepared to ex- tend the hand of welcome to a section that is already physically and economi- cally a part of Greater Washington. A NEW HELIUM SUPPLY. One of the factors that has retarded the development of lighter-than-aircraft has been the lack in large quantities of a noninflammable and nonexplosive lifting gas. Hydrogen was used for years to give gas bags their bugyancy, but although hydrogen is most efficient as a lifting gas, it is so potentially dangerous that use of gasoline engines in proximity to it must be surrounded with every safeguard. When helium, a noninflammable, nonex- plosive gas with a lifting power almost as great as that of hydrogen, was discov- ered a few years ago, interest in the com- mercial development of lighter-than- aircraft spurted. It was developed, through experiment, that helium is in- finitely superior to hydrogen even though it does not lift quite as well and the prob- lem, of recent years, has been how to obtain helium in quantities sufficient for the demand. They call} been discovered and opened up, with the latest, and the richest by far, announced a few days ago. The new field is located in Utah and it has a helium content run- ning as high as 7.07 per cent, as com- pared with the previous high of 3.6 per | cent and the 1.75 per cent in the Texas field from which the Bureau of Mines is producing helium for the Army and Navy. The new field is the property of the only private helium producing plant in the country, and the product will be made available to commercial aircraft operators as well as the Government. The United States enjoys a practical world monopoly of helium. Because other countries can not obtain supplies of this superior gas for the inflation of their air- ships, American dirigibles occupy a favor- able position in respect to competition. With an ample supply of the gas avail- able the establishment of long-distance American airship routes should be speeded. Announcement of the new dis- covery comes at a moment when such projects are under discussion and should serve to stimulate their sponsors to ac- tion. WHO WAS BEATRICE? The _ self-appointed interpreters of Dante are never weary of torturing their subject in order to wring from the works of the great Florentine some semblance of justification for a pet theory. Quite recently two learned ladies, carrying on their studies quite independently, have ventured into the often-explored field, and have emerged each with a solution of her own for the puzzles which for centuries have been engaging the atten- tion of would-be connoisseurs in the backgrounds of the Divina Commedia. One of these ladies finds that the key to the character and writings of the Italian poet is to be found in his spirit of renunciation, and perhaps there is in that line of argumentation more than at first sight would seem to square with the known facts of Dante’s life and the meaning ordinarily assigned to the liter- ary legacy he has bequeathed to pos- terity. “The other theorist displays consider- able ingenuity and not a little learning in taking up the position that Beatrice, instead of being a real flesh-and-blood personage whom Dante loved and whose early death he deplored, is merely a symbol typifying that one of the seven gifts of the holy spirit to which theolo- gians have given the name of Counsel. From what the poet himself tells us in his Vita Nuova most scholars admit the actuality of Beatrice, but they go on to recognize that in time she developed in his thought into a symbol, variously in- terpreted as standing for divine grace, supernatural intuition, or even theology in general. To limit the application of this symbol es showing forth Counsel alone is a hard saying, which will prob- ably find but little favor with the cog- noscenti and is not likely to commend itself to popular approval. On the whole, one is inclined to the belief that the Dante enigma still re- mains, and still awaits a convincing solu- tion. ANCIENT MEDICAL MARVELS. In the course of a lecture recently de- livered in London by P. Johnston-Saint before the Royal Society of Arts, there were brought out, in connection with the history of medicine, certain facts that are such “facers” as to make all laymen and many physicians gape with astonishment. Mr. Johnston-Saint is secretary of the Wellcome Historical Medical Museum and therefore presum- ably well informed on his subject. From him one learns that the Hindus discov- ered the circulation of the blood cen- turies before Harvey was heard of. And here have we westerners been paying homage for over 250 years to the mem- ory of Harvey in the apparently erro- neous belief that to him alone was that gigantic and epoch-making discovery due. Similarly it appears that, long be- fore the birth of Jenner, even the cow- herds of India were practicing a form of inoculation or vaccination as a preven- tive of smallpox. | After these revelations one learns, without too much surprise, that the golden age of Hindu medicine was at the commencement of the Buddhist period; that Jivaka, the physician of Buddha, practiced cranial surgery with success: that amputation and the use of artificial limbs were well known, and that Hindu surgeons of that distant age were adepts at the forming of new noses and ears from the grafting of flaps of skin. The writings of early Hindu physicians show A Hy) " Vai f | THA \ ate OLUNTARY CO saa AMERICAN PEOPLE.

To*them. alone, it further appearsis“t6 be attributed the smoking” of datura in cases of asthma, as well as the prescription of nux vomica in paral- ysis and dyspepsia and, to a large ex- tent, the use of croton. The indebtedness of mankind to “the immemorial East” is thus once more clearly established. It is sad to think that Hindu medi- cine, which had flourished so gloriously at so early a period, fell from its high estate. There were various causes for that decline, but one of the chief was to modern minds a strange one, namely, the ceremonial prejudice against the touching of a corpse.. By such trivial matters are the destinies of mankind sometimes injuriously affected. A TAX ON ENTERPRISE. Senator Carter Glass’ proposal that a rider be tacked upon the tariff bill calling for the collection of a 5 per cent tax on the transfer of all stocks or other securities held by their owners for less than 60 days is no more unique than it is unwise. - It may be expedient, in the senator’s opinion, to attempt to use the tariff measure as a vehicle for legisla- tion against speculation, but certainly no other excuse can be brought up for ad- vocating such a rider to that bill. The tax is not suggested as an excise, how- ever, but as a penalty, and, despite the fact that it may be considered low, it is most unlikely that the courts, in view of previous decisions, would uphold the legality of utilizing the taxing authority of the Government to penalize specula- tion. The Federal Reserve Board campaign against “overextended” brokers’ loans seems to have been successful. For the week ended last Wednesday, a total of $232,000,000 was lopped off the brokers’ loan figure, the largest drop on record, bringing loans outstanding dewn to $5,288,000,000, the smallest total since that of the week ended December 26 last. In the week ended April 18, 1929, brokers’ loans moved over the line from | nee ae $3.000,000,000 to $4,000,000,000 and in _ some with facilities for seaplanes. It ote week ended March 20, 1929. they _is assumed that Manhattan will remain | , | the population center, and that the con- reached a peak of $5,793,000,000. The trend now is downward, and it seems likely that the tendency will continue in the right direction. Apparently the Federal Reserve Board is well able to cope with excessive speculation. Certainly, in its own opinion, the situation that has prevailed in recent weeks was most serious, and every indication points to the fact that the board now considers matters under control. Supporting this view stands the | years. It Might Solve the Problem. ofthe suggestion of the advisory council that it permit such of its member banks as so desired to raise the rediscount rate to 6 per cent. Had the board believed that the situation was not responding to the course of treatment it has been administering, surely it would have per- mitted its member banks to act. What need is there, then, since the board has adequate means with which to discourage undue speculation, for a tax such as is suggested by Senator Glass? His proposal would work hard- ship on essential business transactions and would discourage enterprise. All unproved enterprises are “speculation,” and sometimes even established bus- inesses encounter uncertainties that re- quire instantaneous action. The United States was made an in- dustrial power by those who were willing and ready to risk their capital in un- proved ventures. Senator Glass aims at gamblers, but he would actually hit honest enterprise. NEW YORK CITY’S FUTURE. The regional plan committee, which has been financed by the Russell Sage Foundation, has presented its outline for development of Greater New York City after an intensive study for seven The plan contemplates a popu- lation of 20,000,000 in New York and environs in 1965 and outlines in a gen- eral way what improvements will be necessary to permit this gigantic com- munity to live in comfort. The study has cost $1,000,000, and the only esti- mate of the cost of carrying out its rec- ommendations is that it will run into the billions. The plan takes in an area of 5,528 square miles in New York, New Jersey and Connecticut. More than 420 sepa- rate communities are included. This gigantic city of the future will require a network with hundreds of highways, trunk railway extensions and rapid tran- sit lines, all connected with tunnels and bridges. Vast new areas must be de- voted to parks and playgrounds. Pro- vision is made for sixteen civil airports, vested area will be extended over the western end of Long Island and along the western shore of the Hudson. A city of 20,000,000 people seems fan- ciful, but a glance at statistics on the re- eent growth of American cities will jus- tify New York in looking forward to that number within 40 or 50 years. Pop- ulation in the city proper has almost doubled since 1900. If the area of Greater New York is included the in- York and its environs now have an esti- ? | mated Populaijer of 10,000,000. a - Developments in’ industry, commeree—— and transportation indicate that Amerie can cities will rapidly increase in popu- lation. fo the future is too often neglected, or fixed on too small a scale. The needs of a city 50 years hence will be proportionately much greater than they have been dure ing the last half century. The most ambitious plan can not be expected to anticipate all future needs, but the city which in this era of rapid growth fails to provide for systematic development will be in a sorry plight hereafter. 10,000,000 inhabitants in the next 50 years, and that the improvements and conveniences of today will be utterly in- adequate. A Wisconsin woman, mother of five children, will be graduated from high school this month. Parents almost have to go*to school these days to keep up with the younger generation. The gavel used to maintain order at the reunion of the Second Division weighs 25 pounds, and about the only person we know of competent to wield it is Charlie Dawes. The Rio Grande Valley is a place where the farmers pray that Mexico won’t wake up and use her half of the Rio Grande water. Fable: Once a man had his deposit book balanced and discovered that the bank’s figures agreed with his check stubs. Now you can’t tell; the man suddenly rich may not be a bootlegger—he may be financed by the power people. After all, if the farmer is to be helped at the expense of others, wouldn’t it be easier to take up a collection? A governor who calls out State troops that aren’t needed never in his boyhood tried rocking a hornet’s nest. There is nothing remarkable in Con- gress’ tendency to step on the gas.

By JEAN ELIOT. COOPING the world, which had been waiting with palpitating interest to learn of their wedding plans, Col. Charles A. Lindbergh and sweet Anne Mor- row were married on Montlay—to vanish completely immediately afterward. And everybody has been talking about them ever since. As a topic of conversation, the Lone Eagle's wedding has outstripped even the first meet- ing of the President's “crime commission,” Mrs. Hoover's series of congressional tea parties and the senatorial controversy over newspaper ethics in propriety of publishing the roll call of the Senate in executive ses- sion. Nevertheless there has been interest to Spare in a group of early June weddings in and out of town and in the plans of such _ Pretty brides as Miss Nancy Hamilton, Miss Hester Ann Lefevre, Miss Nancy Beale, Miss Annie. Graham Hume, Miss Marion (Car- michael and Miss Nancie Benoist, who are to be married within the next few weeks. A representative company gathered yes- terday in St. John’s Church to witness the marriage of Miss Elizabeth Ives, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James E. Ives, to Mr. James R. Lowe. And at the same time wedding bells were ringing- at Scarsdale, N. Y., for Miss Mary Garland Allen and Mr. Will R. Gregg, and in Wilmington, for Miss Julia du Pont Andrews and Mr. Alfred FE. Bissell. Although her-parents, Mr. and Mrs. James Newman Andrews, make their home in Be- thesda, Miss Andrews elected to be married in Wilmington, stronghold of the du Ponts, from the house of her aunt, Miss Amy du Pont. Mr. Bissell is a Wilmington man, so the charming little Delaware city will be their future home. Mr. Gregg’s brother, Mr. Alexander Gregg, it will be remembered, married Miss Dor- othy Mondell, of Washington, and the Se ragement they announced from Cuba—after the youngsters had taken out a Marriage license in Rockville, which they did not use. But friends of the family say that there will not be an immediate marriage. The Prochniks and Mr.. Buck’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Buck, of New York, have met and made friends. There is no objection to the engagement on either side. But Mr. Prochnik is said to feel that his daughter is too young to be married at ance and that Mr. Buck should be more firmly established in his profession—the foreign service—be- fore taking so important a step. * « * a AVING earlier entertained the ladies of H the Diplomatic Corps at tea in several congenial groups, Mrs Hoover recently in- augurated a series of similar teas for the ladies of the Senate and the House, the wives, daughters and “other ladies’’—to quote the Congressional Directory—who are members of congressional households.

Commissioner for the District, and the members of the committee for the Little House, Mrs. Gerritt S. Miller, jr., and little Miss Marion Sears, were also at the recital. Mrs. Hoover also visited Mount Vernon one day last week, accompanied by Mrs. Odell, Miss Eleanor Odell and Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Barton, who had come from New York for a day or twoat the White House. The trip was made by boat—presumably the Mayfiower's launch, _—_, was salvaged ‘ vad Hrs Robert T. when the President’s yacht was decom- missioned. Earlier Mr. Dwight W. Morrow, Am- bassador to Mexico, had been a White House guest—and possibly told the President and Mrs. Hoover where Lindy and Anne were honeymooning. Mr. Morrow came to town as soon as the wedding was over, putting up at the Mayflower for a day or two before going to the White House.

He is evidently to be the “court ainter” of this administration, as gio was of the Marding administra- Ttion. © secretary Mellon, of the Treasury, was - sthe first to sit for Mr. Chandor. He has w@lready completed portraits of the Sec- tretary of War, the Secretary of the In- #terior and the Secetary of Commerce, and is now painting the Postmaster (General and the Secretary of Agricul- ture. * Mr. Chandor has been in the United ) tes before, has painted many @motables and has exhibited in New ork arid other cities.

He also painted traits of other mbers of the Brit royal family, ‘and of Queen Marie of Roumania. » President Hoovef has called a meet- ~ for Thureday afternoon at the ite House of the Mount Rushmore National Memorial Commission. And it ‘4s for this that Mr. Borglum. who is ‘staying at the Metropolitan Club, has S come to town. He is the designer—and ; Will be the sculptor—of the memorial, ‘ which is to embrace figures of Washing- ’ » ton, Jefferson, Lincoln and Roosevelt— » characters representing historic periods » in the country’s evolution.

Miss Elizabeth Ives, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James E. Ives, and Mr. James R. Lowe were married yesterday, the ceremony taking place at 4 o’clock in. St. John’s Church, with a brilliant com- pany in attendance. Afterward there was a small reception at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Ives, 1705 Rhode Island avenue. Washingtonians by adoption, Mr. and Mrs. Ives are formerly of Worcester, Mass., but their daughter was presented to society here, is a member of the Junior League, and has been identified with the activities of the smart young- er set. Mr. Lowe is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Lowe, of Grand Rapids, He is studying for the diplomatic service and consequently his home—and his bride’s —will be in the Capital at least for a + time. St. John’s was effectively decorated for the wedding with early summer flowers, white blossoms being used against a background of green. The ceremony was performed by Bishop Mc- Cormick, of Michigan, an old friend of the Lowe family, assisted by the Rev. Robert Johnston, rector of the church. Miss Ives was given in marriage by her father. She wore a gown of ivory satin made on modified princess lines, its only trimming being rare old point jace which had belonged to the bride’s great-grandmother. The full skirt was edged with a broad band of tulle. The train was of lace and tulle, and a volu- minous tulle veil fell from a cap of point lace. The bridal touquet was of white orchids, gardenias, and lilies of the valley. Mrs. Roger Wolcott Converse, of Bos- ton, was matron of honor, and the group of bridesmaids included Mrs. Montgomery Blair, jr., Mrs. William Draper Blair, Miss Eleanor Hard and Miss Gytha Stourton. They were all dressed alike in white chiffon frocks, with tiered skirts and soft circular capes falling over bare arms. These were finished in front with small, flat bows. Green horsehair hats and green slippers contributed an effective touch of color, and each of the girls carried a huge bouquet of varicolored garden flowers. Mr. Lowe had as best man his broth- er, Mr. Edward Lowe, jr., who had come with Mrs. Lowe by airplane from California for the wedding. The ush- ers were Mr. Josiah Philip Evans 3d, of New York; Mr. Lucius Douglass Tomp- kins, of New York; Mr. Edward Lowe Greene, of California; Mr. Mannix Walker and Lieut. Tighlman Bunch, v.68. A program of organ music preceded the ceremony, with its familiar wedding marches, and the organist played softly during the service. Mrs. Lowe received with Mrs. Ives. The former wore a gown of green chiffon and the bride’s mother was at- tired in blue and white chiffon, worn with a blue lace coat. | For her going-away costume the bride wore a becoming ensemble of French blue crepe, its blouse of figured blue and white, with a small blue straw hat. She carried a tan wool top coat. Mr. and Mrs. Lowe will spend their honeymoon in Europe. They are tak- ing a car with them and will motor through England and France. On their return in September they will make their home at 1713 R street, in a charm- ing little house, which the bridegroom's nrother has furnished for them as a wedding gift.

Usually the summer collection of each of the great Paris couturiers may be depended upon to bring us, as its finale, a breath-taking vision of ethe- real loveliness—a gorgeous bridal gown, with the “bride” attendéd by a full retinue of bridesmaids, also stunningly gowned. But this season there were fewer than usual, and some of them were not especially thrilling, for some rea- son or another. However, we simply can not let spring pass without saying something about this ever-appealing subject, so we are going to tell you a bit about the trend in bridal gowns that will be seen at coming society weddings in Europe. Smart Simplicity. The keynote of all the efféctive gowns we have seen this season has been an exceptional simplicity and al- most complete freedom from ornate- ness. This, we may add, is a most commendable feature and one which the young bride-to-be will do well to keep firmly in mind. Nothing is smarter than trim simplicity—and nothing more out of taste than the bride who is decorated like the pro- verbial “Christmas tree.” It so happens that this season the trend of the mode is such that the wedding gown is not so very different from other gowns for formal wear, except in certain details. The dress itself may well be of white or ivory satin. The bodice will be simple, the decolletage discreet and the sleeves jong and narrow. The skirt will be draped gracefully, with con- siderable fullness, perhaps falling in uneven points. The fish-tail train, which should be very long, is an in- tegral part of the skirt The Veil. This extremely long train naturally calls for a large weti, and becauee of its size it should be a simple affair of tulle, covering the eyes, and held in 921 GXST. NM.

This would be more or less out of piace, however, for any save the most lavish of weddings, and we frankly prefer the simplicity and grace of the plain veil. Under this may be worn a step-in of heavy white chiffon with insertions Of dainty lace. The silk stockings should be of white or ivory, but so sheer as to appear flesh-colored when worn. white suede gloves, in the new long Style, which are worn crushed about the wrist, complete the Wardrobe.

Since the croquet ball has intruded itself in the field heretofore held ex- Clusively by golf and tennis balls with the revival of this mid-Victorian game in Washington and othér cities, the clothes for the “out-of-door sports- woman" have undergone something of achange For the conservative out on the lawn game of croquet in early morning, after luncheon or téa or as after-dinner diversion with each wicket lighted by a candle, the costumes worn by both the women and men are apt to be a more dressy variety than for a mere game of golf or tennis. No matter how floating and eion- gated in the back may be the gown of the 1929 croquet player, she has an advantage over the matrons and maids who played this game in a more con- servative age. Even the longest gown of 1929 does not trail on the ground and have a train as did those of the croquet players in the,days of the Vic- torlan dime novel. No Victorian maid With a thought as much about her feet looking attractive and small as the modern croquet player. There is a division of opinion as to the kind of slippers best adapted for this game. The advocates of comfort and durability will perhaps choose the sport shoe or sandal and not get so tired waiting for the other play- ers to go through their wickets or knock the ball of the other players out of position or feel the effect of the damp grass. Others can not resist the short vamped high-heeled colored kid slip- pérs sO much the vogue this year. I! they do not play as well, at least their footgear demands admiration. | Croquet After Luncheon or Tea. - Many of the luncheons and teas at large country and suburban estates end in a croquet game. Society matrons and maids and well-known men often play a real scientific game. Even the bridge and golf enthusiasts acknow!- edge there is science in the old-time game. Of course, the children of the family who have hitherto looked upon the croquet set and wickets as their own. property, stand on the sidelines and pick up points from their elders or are able to furnish pointers to them. With the revival of the Victorian in art and literature and clothes, it 1s quite to be expected that the merry game of battledore and shuttlecock should also be taken up by those who keep abreast of the mode. Toy depart- shopping centers for the followers of these games. The “sport” costumes of the minute are often really gardén party or lunch- eon costumes of flowered or plain chif- fon or lace with wide-brimmed hats ‘and matching slippers. It seems in | keeping also that the ultra modish bag 'for this type of costume should be | fashioned after what were once spoken lof as “pockets,” or “reticules,” carried | by long strings over the wrist. Another | revival which seems to fit into the pic- ture is the designer's habit of cutting | werthes of fichus or quaint old-fash- ‘ioned cape effects on the latest gowns. Even the parasols have lost their plain | tailored if colorful dignity of past years and are now creations of frills and ruf- | fles made of chiffon or crepe de chine ‘and lace. Some of the young girls have eagerly searched through their mother's | or grandmother's belongings to find the | lace parasol, once the pride and joy of a trousseau of yesterday. Women’s Hats Are Checked, In direct contrast to this trend to | bring back. the age of iemininity are ithe rows of women’s hats neatly | checked on the shelves with the men's | to be seen at any banquet of women's organizations. The women who take lan active part in organization work are | usually women of affairs, especially in Washington, where such bodies number 'in their membership women representa- / tives, women in executive positions in ithe Government, women doctors and | lawyers and a great many women of | wealth ‘terested in civic and welfare | politics. i t | The busy woman who wishes to ate | tend a forum banquet, either as guest | er, jikes to be well and suitably | But if she has a busy day, a) ‘tea engagement as well es a dinner on ‘her schedule, she does not have time | ‘or speak dressed. | for a change of costume.

Light Colors for Summer Here. While the smartness of handsome dark clothes and even their comfort, if they are thin material like thiffon or georgette or crepe de chine, has been acknowledged by the women who stay in Washington most of the summer as | workers or because their husbands must lremain, yet the seasoned summer rea- ‘ident of the National Capital falls un- der the spell of cool-looking light-col- ored clothes for wear on sultry days. Many women haileq with delight the vogue for white so apparent at all the entertainments and meetings at. all ‘hours of the day that appeared with first real summer days of last week. That Washington is going to ‘wear white, is.clearly seen. If the lead of Official society is followed, it is. going to wear wide-brimmed straw hats to shade the eyes, and also to add @ note of picturesqueness to summer attire. The smal] sport hat with the tiny brim is chosen to wear with sport dresseg by many best dressed women. At the gatherings last week mahy sport hats were seen with wide brims which con- formed perfectly with the sport cos- tumes and were unlike the ones for for- mal afternoon and garden party wear. | While the floppy lacy hat is worn for roof garden and informal dinners in public places there can be ho deny- ing the becomingness of the tiny lace hat for after sundown occasions. In Blue and White Polka Dot. Mrs. Henrik Shipstead, wife of Sena- tor Shipstead, wore at a luncheon a dress of blue and white polka dot silk and a red hat with a medium-sized brim. Mrs. James M. Thomson, who came to Washington for a few days last week before sailing for Europe, wore at a luncheon a dress of dark beige crepe Ge chine and a long coat of the same material. With this she wore a tan straw hat anda fox fur. Representative Ruth Hanna McCor- mick is wearing a dress of dark red crepe satin, made on conservative lines with long open sleeves of red chiffon. Representative Ruth Bryan Owen had on at a dinner party a dress of black chiffon, made with a molded bodice and full skirt with an old-fashioned bouquet of flowers at the left hip. Mrs. Jefferson Myers, wife of the Commissioner of the United States Shipping Board, is wearing a dress of red chiffon, with a coat to match and a small red straw hat. Mrs. Frederick Steiwer, wife of the ‘senator from Oregon, had on at a lunch- leon a dress of old crepe de chine made with a short coat with a scarf collar. Her hat was a black straw one. . Mrs. Virginia White Speel is wearing }a dress of black and white chiffon, made with a surplice bodice and a draped to the side skirt. With this she wears a small black hat. Mrs, Patrick Hurley had on one day last week a dress of dark blue crepe de chine made with a pleated-all-the- way-round skirt and a surplice bodice with a cream lace vest. She wore a dark blue straw hat with this costume.

Some of the most girlish and attractive gowns of this materiai will be worn by daugh- ters of famous men and women at the college proms and class-night dances. The most modish are fitted of bodice and wide of skirt, and finished with ruffles and bandings of white net. Fer | those who like the colored organdies, there are all kinds of vivid shades, and in many cases two or three shades of JUNE 2, 1929. Triplets in First Communion Dress ;one major color are combined with | | good effect. One of the spring brides took with ! her on her wedding tour a dress of fine white organdie made on demure, old- fashioned lines, and with lovers’ knots of blue ribbon held in place by em- broidered pink roses. This bride se- lected a wide-brimmed white hat with a blue velvet band and streamers for this | costume, Another noticeable return to favor of ! ‘ cotton fabric which is used not only for sport is checked gingham, | and | | morning dress, but for tattie little en- | ; Semble Suits, with organdie touches in | | the blouse, either of white or the pre- | color of the check. Just to | | please the passing fancy, the manufac- | turers are Offering checked gingham | pumps, which are very effective, and clean easily as well. . | Summer is the very young maidens playtime from school. Little gtris’ dresses are important factors in the summer sartorial plans of many fami- lies. Like her older sister, little sister wears calico and gingham, georgette euiieemeenasmes and crepe de chine and chiffon, and for | colored laces. her sport sandals. from the juvenile designs. So it is only fair that the lit- tle girl should copy the sport bag of her mother when she goes shopping. Steeveless Dress Omnipresent, The short sleeved or sleeveless dress has insinuated itself into favor no mat- ter how much it may have been frown- ed on at first by the conservative wom- en for anything but tennis or the golf links or a morning or an afternoon quietly at home. The garden party are apt to be without any sleeves at all. If they have them they are simply elongated shoulder cap effects. Many women who like the verchief scarf use these to good effect on the sleeveless dress. Of course, the long sleeve dress is worn as much as the sleeveless one. But there is the privilege of choice by the modish woman. The “use more cotton” edict by Dame Fashion is being obeyed by the women who have clothes acumen. Some of the smartest dresses seen at recent luncheons were quaint but by no means inexpensive creations of cotton materi- als. The ‘vogue for the quilted calico coat to wear with the calico or cotton print dress is a universally becoming one and adds a gay note to the throngs of people gathered for a picnic luncheon at some country estate or club to watch the tennis matches or walk through the parks. With the fad for having every- thing go together the desizners have fashioned demure looking little hais and calico bags and even parasols. As the summer advances the chiffon and flowered chiffon evening gown gives way. to a certain extent, to the ones of net and organdie. Each season sees a revival of the organdie évening dress Certainly nothing is so suitable for the subdebutante and her sisters, who look of dress.

EXT to her wedding day. gradua- tion probably offers one of the greatest thrills of the average N ' young woman's life. It ig ber first real public appearance —when she takes the center of the @tage—and what she wears is of course Of the very first importance. Perhaps she didn’t have the very highest marks. Perbsps, in fact, she just barely “got through.” But certal it is that if she is the prettiest girl on the platform and wears her frock with ust the right air, she is going to please ert proud parents and friends quite as much as though she were valedictorian. Of course, there are graduations and graduations! Grade schools, high schools, finishing @chools and colleges all have their dif- ferent requirements. For a time, after the war, when stan- dardization and simplification were in the air, many of the schools went in High school committees voted as to what their class should wear for graduation frocks—and some went so far as to graduate in middy blouses . for uniforms. and skirts.

For the College Girl. The costumég sketched are a little older and more sophisticated—for the college commencement. The dress is of a lovély printed chiffon in beiges, browns and tiny bits cf orange (that lovely “Capucine medium” sponsored by Patou in Paris), with exquisite flurries of brown tulle and a huge bouquet-like shoulder tuft of the same airy brown fabric. The corsage is square in shape with slightly rounded corners, and the bodice blonises ever so slightly over the twin belts that suggest the higher waistline and achieve the fitted hip all The Season’s Smartest Colors for After Dark Are Particularly Appropriate for Youth. HE young modern about to ¢rad-| at the same time. The skirt is beszuti- fully cut and fitted together subtly in intriguing sections and reverts to tulle again just below the hips. Then you have a skirt which is as bouffant asa Gibson girl’s idea of a graduation party frock. The circular cut gives fullness without bulk, and two long, circular fantail draperies fal] down at the side besek—much smarter, by the way, than the directly-in-the-back swoop. The Scarf Wrap. The wrap is one which will elicit a “just too angelic for words” from any girl in her right mind and win a mother’s approval because of its inex- pénsiveness and its simplicity (and it is simple, even if it does look compli- cated). It’s one of those scarf-like af- fairs that the smartest French and American women are wearing ¢very- where, that looks like “a rag in the hand,” but does the most interesting and graceful things when you drape it around a pair of youthful shoulders, give it a twist of the wrist and let it fall where it wills. The top is of paie yellow crepe de- chine that falls in a cape effect, and the chiffon scarf and skirt are of chartreuse green chiffon— that color combination that og looks like a sophisticated springtime a landscape garden. Therefore, although. one’s pocketbook be ever limited, one may approach grad- uation day without qualms, knowing that the secret of charm is not the money spent, but the knowledge of what to wear and how to wear it. The sleeveless mode is a boon to the home dressmaker, for the very prettiest of the sleeveless frocks may be evolved in a few hours’ labor—and serve many purposes after the great day is over. If one wishes a dress with a slight air of formality, the neckwear depart- ment plays an important role—for there are any number of really exquisite berthas and cape collars of danty em- ‘broidery, applique of sheer thread lace which are the easiest thing in the world | to attach to a one-piece sleeveless dress, and which are most becoming.

The brunette wears lightest and sheerest of suntan hosiery, to match her face and arms. And the same rule holds good for the gradua- tion costume. For the formal evening graduation, cobweb hose with a French clock is charming with one’s white slippers. The matter of gloves is still under dis- cussion. Once the long wrinkled white glace kid glove was accepted as an essential of the graduation outfit. Or one might substitute long gloves of white silk— if the former were too expensive. Then gloves disappeared from the mode. Now they are returning. The twelve and sixteen button glove is once more worn with the formal costume, but it is not yet compulsory.

It # made in prints, and in bright and pastel shades and it also makes an excellent gradutition frock if the oc- casion be not too formal].

With sandals or crepe de chine in vivid color and matching choker and bracelet the same frock will do service for the in- formal dinner dance. Crisp White Organdy. The center frock is a copy of a Lan- vin model in the sheerest and crispiest of white organdy. This type of frock is quite formal in feeling, and is suitable for the evening graduation in a school where com- mencement exercises take the form of a reception to parents and friends. Such a frock is a perfect summer evening dress for the girl of 16 or 17. The very full skirt dips gracefully at the back, reaching to the ankles, and the peplum gives a very new line to the silhouette. A sash of white gros- grain, with long ends, ties in the front and the deep cape collar of the or- gandy follows the line of the skirt. A Touch of Color. Later, if one wishes to vary the frock, a sash of Nattier blue velvet, finished with a tiny nosegay of French blossoms in rose, yellow and green would give a touch of sophistication te the frock when it is worn for dinner or dance.

Of course such a dress is invaluable, for it is just the kind of thing that is being worn for all daytime occasions this summer.e It is a copy of a London Trades model, subtly clever in cut, with a plastron effect in applique on the blouse, and a finely pleated front section to the skirt whieh gives a smart circular flare.

Later the red belt may be morn, may add sandals of matching red and white checked linen, and short white doeskin slip-ons, and with the warm | sun-tanned skin which all the fashion- able world has acquired one will be a striking figure of chic.

To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Two high officials of the Bureau of Engrav- ing and Printing state that after July 1. the bureau vill heave a large surplus of employes and will be compelled to adopt the policy of f loughs, which means that all employes will be given from 15 to 30 days’ leave of absence without pay. About 600 former em- ployes have been ‘taken on within the Jast six months to rush the getting out, All of the new paper-note currency. be these extra former emploves will suspended on June 30. For months pressmen, regular and extra women employes, have been work- ing in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing as follows: From 8 a. m. to 4 p. m.,, or from 8 a. m, to 6 p. m., or from 8 a. m. to 8 p. m., or from 4:30 Pp. m. to 11:30 p.m. Sundays included. Many of the pressmen ‘nd regular women employcs are m-mbers of bu- Teau associations affiliated with the American Federation of Labor. The attention of the American Federation of Labor is called to the fact of hours worked in excess of the eight-hour day as abov: set forth. Is it not the rule of the American Federation of La- bor and the associations affiliated with it. that “time and half time for all work over eight hours daily of the six working days, and double time for Sun- day work.” These overtime-worked em- Ployes have not received one cent ex-' tra pay, per hour or day, for their over- time work of eight hours’ work daily. Moreover, the night work was not op- tional but demanded. It has result- ed in many women employes being .forced to consult occulists and physi- cans. Why the extra employes? Why the overtime working, days, nights and ‘Sundays? Evidently to get out the smaller new paper-note currency. The country, the banks, did not call for any change in the size of our paper-note currency. Economy! Well, the change up to date, sixteen or more new presses, new bank-note paper, 600 extra em- ployes, &c., has cost the taxpayers of the United States up to date only, _ nearly $500,000. Is this economy or pseudo-economy? “The reduction of the force and the necessary furloughs is due, in part, to the fact that the new currency to be issued after July 1, will be smaller in dimensions than the present currency,” atate the higher officials of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. But why the shut down of the “money shop” in J--ly after working days, nights and Sundays for months? Is it to force 30 d-ys’ leave without pay and thus make up part of the $500,000 more or less already expended on the new currency “without warrant of act of the Con- gress? But why close the “money shop” in July at all? Is the Bureau of En- graving and Printing ready to put out new $10, $20, $50, $100, $500, $1,000 and $10,000 notes on July 1? Or only $1, $2 and $5 notes? Is the country to have two kinds of paper-note currency the same time—the old and the new? The heartlessness of depriving these day and night workers of a month's wage! “Thirty days’ leave of absence without pay!” American farmer is not the only one these days who needs relief and the “helping hand.” Congress should prevent this pros- Pective heartless ingratitude, this pseudo-economy, this immediate future injustice, to overworked, day and night, and unpaid bureau employes.

To the Editor of The Post—Sir: The inaccuracies of the newspapers of this day and time are appalling; it seems that they print anything and every- thing that comes to them as facts, with no effort whatever to ascertain whether they are true or not true. In an article published by you, dated May 19, 1929, from Winchester, Va., headed “Funeral services held for Vir- ginia Turfman” in which was sup- posedly given some family history of | the Dulanys there was hardly an ac- curate statement made. Col. Richard H. Dulany, one of Vir- ginia’s most highly respected, honored and beloved citizens, was pictured as an Englishman. We know of nothing that Col. Dulany would have resented more than this: Col. Richard H. Dulany was born a Virginian, as was his father, and we be- lieve his grandfather, at Old Wel- bourne, where he now lies buried, in the private Dulany burying ground. | Old Welbourne is situated-near the south boundary of Loudoun County, Va., and is the original home of the Dulany family, which was in their pos- session, we believe, before the Revolu- tionary War, and is now owned and occupied by Mrs. Archie Randolph, a granddaughter of Col. Richard Dulany. Col. Dulany organized a cavalry com- pany at the beginning of the Civil War, which was attached to the Sixth Vir- ginia Regiment and which served throughout the war under J. E. B. Stuart. My father assisted Col. Dulany | ‘acreage, the Philippines is far from | being under such favorable conditions. in recruiting this company and served in the beginning as second lieutenant under him, afterward succeeding him as captain when Capt. Dulany was pro- moted to a colonelcy. Col. Dulany died at Welbourne, or New Welbourne, which is about 3 miles distant from Old Welbourne, the origi- nal family homestead. Grafton Hall, originally called No. 6 farm, was never owned by Col. Richard Dulany, but by his son, Hal Dulany, who inherited the English fortune through his mother, and by will left Grafton Hall to his nephew, John P. Dulany, who died quite young and un- married, Grafton Hall thus being in- herited by his father, Dick Dulany, Jr. The Dulany fortune came from an aunt in England of Col. Richard Du- lany’s wife, because of an agreement between them that Mrs. Dulany would marry a Dulany so as to perpetuate the Dulany name, but the entire possession of this fortune was to come to her eld- est son, she having only the income until this eldest son became of legal age. So the fortune did come in its en- tirety to the late Hal Grafton Dulany, who died unmarried and is buried in the old family graveyard at Old Wel- bourne. : The Dulanys were never English, but Irish. Col. Richard H. Dulany was a Virginian of Virginians, proud of his birthright and birthplace. It is for this reason that we ask you to make this record true. GEORGE E. Bluemont, Va., May 20. PFLASTER. Secretary of Agriculture of Philippine Government Says Sugar Industry in the Islands in Development Is Checked by Lack of Labor, Limited Cane Areas, Soil and Climate Con- | ditions and Lack of Capital. To the Editor of The Bost—Sir: Ever since my arrival in the United States I have gathered the impression that there is a belief prevailing in certain quarters that the Philippines possesses an unlimited capacity for sugar produc- tion, equaling that of Java or Cuba. As an Official of the Philippine govern- ment in charge of the department of agriculture and natural resources, I have with me facts and figures in this connection which demonstrate the in- accuracy of this belief. There are cer- tain factors which contribute in check- ing the development of the sugar in- dustry in the Philippines. These are, among others, (1) lack of labor, (2) limited cane areas, (3) soil and climatic conditions, and (4) lack of capital. 1. Lack of Labor.—Because of the! immigration laws of the Philippines. | which are similar to those of the Unit- ed States, Chinese and other Oriental labor is barred, thereby closing to the islands the only possible source of out- side labor supply and making the Phil- Richard Dulany, Recently De- | ceased, Never an Englishman But | /pines, which has a population of 12,- | ricultural | seven acres per man. Even with the use |of agricultural machinery becoming | more general, increase in production | would be but negligible. Of the total acreage under cultivation, only 586,000 acres are planted to sugar cane, the re- mainder to rice, coconut, hemp, tobac- co, corn. The insufficient labor supply does not permit increase in one crop without corresponding decrease in the | acreage of the others, which is very un- likely. , 2. Limited cane areas. The sugar in- | dustry in the Philippines is being car- 'ried on in sections of the country which have been devoted to cane pro- ' duction for more than a century. Ex- | perience has shown that only in these | sections has any attempt to extend |Cane areas been profitable. The experi- _ence of the Mindoro Sugar Co., with a | big outlay of American capital and /expert management which has under- _taken to produce cane outside of the | areas previously planted to that crop. _shows beyond any doubt the improba- bility of increasing production in this manner. The resulf,has been such a complete failure that it is almost cer- tain that no other attempt along this line will be made. Any substantial increase in the area of cane cultivation by resorting to pub- lic lands would likewise be impracti- cable, considering the restrictive pro- visions of the land laws enaécted by Congress for the Philippines limiting to 2,500 acres the amount of public land which a corporation may acquire or hold. 3. Soil and climatic conditions. While Cuba and Java with uniform latitude can grow sugar cane in most of their |The Philippine Archipelago, occcupying | 17 degrees of latitude, has such a vari- ‘ety of climatic conditions in the dif- ties. ticed. 4. Lack of capital. Capital has never been abundant in the Islands. The amount invested in the Philippine ‘sugar industry is approximately $175,- 000,000 with an annual production of around 600,000 tons. To produce the 5,000,000 tons of sugar which has been predicted by a few over-optimists would require an investment of not less than one and a half billion dollars ($1,500,- 000,000). ‘yond Philippine possibilities. In spite 'of the encouragement of the Federal as well as the Philippine governments, very little outside capital has come to the islands due principally to the unsettled political status and the exist- ing restrictive land and corporation laws. Moreover; the present agitation to restrict Philippine free sugar im- portation into the United States has already discouraged further investments of capital in the Philippines. A few years ago when the price of sugar was around 5 cents per pound, which is over.1% cents higher than the current price, a New York concern ‘sent representatives to the islands to inegotiate the purchase of certain cen- trals. Even ynder such favorable con- ‘ditions, these gentlemen offered only | cents for every dollar invested in | 25 ' the properties. that if any increase in the production ‘of sugar in the Philippines is to occur at all, the same will necessarily have to be limited, slow and gradual. Any assertion to the effect that the Philip- pine sugar industry will in a few years approximate the rapid increase attained in Cuba is without foundation. In 1895 the Philippines exported 336,075 tons of sugar. All this quantity was produced by primitive mills, at best extracting only 55 per cent of the juice. In 1927, the exports were 544579 tons.

It is evident that this comparison is misleading not only because procuction then was undoubtedly more than the |sugar exports, but also because of the 'well-known fact that for more than ten years after 1896, the Philippines was the scene of several wars, revolu- tions and disturbances of public order which had almost totally paralyzed the sugar industry. It was not until] 1910 that the indus- tr entered a period of decided recovery and only in 1922 did the islands reach the peak of production in Spanish times. These facts conclusively show that the increase in total output from 1895 to the present time has been normal, resulting from improved meth- ods of cane culture and milling, and brought about in these same sections which have been devoted to cane pro- duction since Spanish domination with- out an appreciable increase in acreage. | It has also beén asserted that the |Philippine sugar industry is controlled | by Spaniards. Nothing could be further from the truth. Capital invested in sugar mills is as follows: American- Filipino, 76 per cent; Spanish, 23 per cent; cosmopolitan, 1 per cent. The nationality of the sugar cane producers ‘is as follows: American-Filipino, 93 per cent; Spanish, 7 per cent. It may be stated that the Spanish interests now engaged in the sugar industry have been so engaged in the Philip- pines for many years before American sovereignty. The amount of Philippine sugar con- sumed in the United States in 1928 was 476,071 tons. This represents only 8.59 per cent of the total sugar consump- tion of the United States. Any increase in the Philippine production that may be marketed here in the future, which, as above set forth will be compara- tively small, will be easily absorbed by the expected normal increase in con- sumption of the United States.

INVADE Even SUBURBS RESIDENCE IN FRENCH STYLE America is becoming a nation of cliff- | * dwellers and the passing of the vine- clad cottage in favor of the “cliff-dwel- ling” apartment house is seen in an analysis of building figures just com- > pleted by the Lawbeck Corporation. For »*, a . ’ » ~* sponsibility of a private house. the first time in history, the survey re- veals, new apartment construction in 1928 exceeded in number of units the construction of one and two family dwellings. “Analysis of Government building re- ports,” said the survey of the Lawbeck Corporation, which specializes in short term loans for building construction, “showed that since 1921 there has been a steady decline in the percentage of homes provided in single and two-fam- ily houses, while a correspondingly in- creased percentage has been registered | In 1921, 75.6 per | by apartment units. cent of the homes provided were in single and two-family dwellings, com- pared with 24.4 per cent in apartment house structures. By 1928, however. Only seven years later, this ratio was reversed, showing only 46.3 per cent in : single and double dwellings, against 63.7 | per cent in apartment buildings. “The trend in the larger cities and | their contingent territory is now defi- | nitely toward the type of living accom- | the modern | apartment. This condition is the nat- | yral outgrowth of the present-day de- sire on the part of women of all classes | modations provided by to maintain interests outside the home. Coupled with this reluctance to engage | in tedious domestic duties, the very real servant problem has also played a large part in the gradual passing of the private home. Made by Traffic Congestion. “Two entirely different—and in some respects contrasting — developments have united in bringing about the in- creased degree of apartment house . The first of these lies in the fact that increased traffic congestion has favored the construction of apart- ment houses located within walking distance of the city's business district, so that many very large apartment de- vélopments have taken place in the ‘near-in’ sections, such as the district immediately east of the Grand Central zone in New York and the ‘Streeter- ville’ section north of Chicago’s Loop. The second factor—perhaps equally im- portant—lies in the tendency of. subur- ban dwellers to prefer the convenience | y of o private howe. As a | Connecticut Avenue Property Purchased | (and apartment structures and of «a As 2 result of this second tendency, there has been a large volume of apartment | ing and | suburban centers which formerly were * given over almost entirely to individual | house construction in ou homes.” The survey stated that San Francisco, Boston, Chicago and Washington have been large apartment building cities, but since 1925 New York has held the lead in this type of housing until to- Cay more than 80 per cent of its resi- ‘dential construction is for the accom- of dwellers. modafion apartment gvApartment building is also on the in- » ’ : crease in the great private home-build- ing cities of Philadelphia, Baltimore, ae Angeles, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Mil- i New York City there has been a. tendency in the past few years,” it was explained, “to develop living accommo- | * dations in certain areas close to the | business centers which heretofore had) been neglected, and those which have been developed to date, especially those which have been done on a scale large | enough to create a modern environ- ment, have, according to reliable re- #@) ports, exceeded original expectations ’ and grown beyond their initial pro- grams. Substantial apartment house rators saw, some years ago, the in- evitable back-lash in Manhattan as the | population was zrowing to a point where transportation away from the - business centers was being heavily taxed and distances from home to business becoming increasingly longer and tedious. “Walk to Business,” “The Slogan. ‘walk to business’ slogan has @become very popular with people who _tneretofore had been obliged to travel ’ 4 a _Jogically so.

The percentage of families housed in epart- ‘ment houses is lower in the cities having a population of less than 500,- 000 than for the average of all cities. There are some interesting exceptions, however, in suburban sections such as Yonkers, White Plains, Mount Vernon and New Rochelle near New York. The same ig true of Oak Park and Evanston, suburbs of Chicago, and Highland Park, @ suburb of Detroit.

Each year the local Chapter of the American Institute of Architects appoints a jury to pass on all plans and specifications for homes to be built within the “Estates.” The Institute consented to render this service in apreciation of the excep- tional character of this development, and in order to promote a finer type of architecture in the City. Through a special arrangement, William P.

POPULAR Roofs are rising in importance as well ag altitude. Often neglected during the last generation, as minor factors in appearance, they are receiving increas- ing attention in the design of present- day buildings. Beautiful outlines and bright colors in terra cotta and similar materials are being applied to the tops of sky- scrapers. A decade ago, arch:‘ic@s point out, the overhanging cornice supplied the finishing touch of symmetry and deco- ration. The flat roof, completely hid- den from the eye, served & purely utili- tarian purpose. Zoning laws and setbacks, together with new methods of ornamentation, sounded the death knell of the project- ing cornice. The setbacks moreover, gerved to reduce the comparative areas of the tops of buildings, and to focus attention upon them, requiring the most thoughtful decorative treatment. Roofs Now Crowning Touch. While the problem was met in many cases with cornices enlivened by color, or graceful finials and other interesting forms, the entire Nation has witnessed a growing vogue for roofs which actu- ally rise up into sight and give the buildings their crowning touch. Tow- ers have also grown in popularity. Old World housetops with their fre- quently interesting lines and colors, have been surpasse@ in charm by the striking designs of many American architects. In Detroit, the Fisher Building, one of the greatest of recent structural undertakings, in point of architecture and floor space, has a central tower with a special roof treatment to har- monize with its unusual désign. The steeply sloping roof is done in mottled green terra cotta, with gold terra cotta ribs. New York City’s skyline is rich with colorful towers and roofs. The green of the Savoy-Plaza and of the Sherry Netherlands, both of distinctive outline, have attracted attention. The new New York Central Building, with its green and gold roofed tower, done in the French manner, forms a spectacle of interest by day and night. In Brooklyn the Williamsburg Bank Building is surmounted by a striking dome with a terra cotta base and a huge glass top encased in metal ribs. The four-acre roof of the new Phila- delphia Museum of Art is done in two shades of blue terra cotta tile, so de- signed that it appears to change color as the observer changes his distance from it. . In Asheville, N. C., the new city hall has won national attention for its roof of old rose tile. In addition to the purely artistic mo- tives for the increasing vogue, build- ers have been influenced by realization that the tops of structures, no matter how planned, are no longer permanent- ly shielded from view. Whereas in the ast, the top of a tall building was vis- ble only from the distance, present construction trends are such that at any time an even taller structure may arise nearby, with occupants of the up- per stories looking directly down upon the roof of the first. Increasing airplane traffic is also a factor to be considered. Sheep Out-Thrive Australia Drought Goats Wil Die While Other Animals Survive, It Is Ascertained. Sydney, Australia, June 1 (A.P.).— The most severe drought in the history of central Australia ts disproving the theory that goats will survive where other animals starve. Where sheep and goats are running together in the same pasture the goats are poor and many are dying, but the sheep are well and many of them fat. The lambing percentage is low, but it appears the herbage is excellent for sheep and that they will withstand a severe drought of long duration while other stock perish. As a result of drought last year many settlers sold their cattle and are restocking the country with sheep. Satisfactory wool prices ere obtained in Adelaide. Atlanta Business Men | Find Thrill in Magic Atlanta, June 1 (A.P.).—Magic, prac- ticed as a benefit to orphans and other needy ones and divested of its powers of personal gain, has become the favored sports dish for an even dozen of Atlanta's civic figures. To them “the hand ts quicker than the eye, ladies,” or a chortled “now you see it, now you don’t,” has become more thrill laden than the shouted “hole in one!” . Tamed Swedish Moose Can Trim Fast Horses Stockholm, June 1 (A.P.).—The Swedish moose is a dangerous com- petitor to the horse. Some years ago a harnessed moosé easily took first place in a horse race, but was refused first prize because the judges decided It was out of the competition. Moose were used as saddle and draft horses several centuries ago until pro- hibited by a royal decree, as it was feared a criminal astride a moose could easily outdistance his horse-powered pursuers. i leeecedtieaniiteedna BARGAIN -_ BEAUTIFUL TRINIDAD 1249 Owen N.E.

CARVED CABINETS INSIDE The new English type homes in the 3600 block of Van Ness street, built by C. H. and G. U. Small Co. and designed by James E. Cooper, demonstrate the distinctive appearance in exterior types which can be attained in construction of semidetached groups. They depart essentially from the usual stereotype plan that has been so | much in vogue over a period of years. | With their broken roof lines, and varied | front and side porches, their artistic chimneys and half-timbered work @& pleasing and unusual appear- ance is achieved. No two entrances are together, a fea- | ture seldom found in group planning. | Originality by the architect is readily noted. The interiors follow different plans, the center hall arrangement, side reception hall, and entering direct into the spacious living room. The houses are trimmed in gum, stained in walnut and mahogany finish. The walls of the first floors and hallways are fin- ished with “Oiltex,” a wall finish of ex- ceptional beauty and long lasting qual- | ities. | The fireplaces are of an unusual ar- tistic design and constructed with Aquila stone, the same stone used in constructing the White House, obtained from the Aquia quarries in nearby Vir- ginia on the Potomac River. Aside from the front living porch there is a breakfast porch 13 by 9 feet accessible from the dining room and kitchen. The kitchen is finished in white enamel, making it particularly cheerful and sanitary. There is a huge outside pantry and electric refrigera- tion is an added feature. Ascending to the second floor of the model home by a wide broken landing staircase with wronght .jron rail, a hall divides four well arranged sleeping rooms. Directly above the living room is the master bedroom, which is 19.6 by 15, private bath adjoining finished in 4-inch square tile, including an ample shower bath. Adjoining this room at the front is a second floor library or single sleeping room. A second tile bath is off the hall with built-in tub and fixture. At the rear are two addi- tional sleeping rooms, one 15 by 13) and the other 10 by 8, a door from both of these rooms gives access to the sleeping porch 16 by 9. ' Leading from the hall is a stairway to a large and well ventilated attic, available for storage purposes. The roofs are of slate, and at the rear of the lot on 20 feet paved alley its a garage. Choice electrical fixtures are noted throughout and “Standard” plumbing and heating equipment. is used.

This work, which has been approved by the national association's appraisal division and board of directors, is set forth In a 24-page report which will be submitted to the association’s delegate body at the convention for adoption by the as- sociation. If adopted by. the national association, these standards of practice will define the procedure which realtor- appraisers and appraisal committees of real estate boards will be expected to follow. Members of the special com- mittee were Henry A. Babcock, Chicago, vice chairman of the appraisal division of the National Association of Real Es- tates Boards; John P. Hooker, Chicago, chairman of the appraisal division, and association. For Fractional Appraisals. The proposed standards of practice would make the following specific regu- lations governing fractional appraisals: “In appraising the property to deter- mine the security for a loan, it has been common practice to have one ap- praiser to determine the value of the land (or leasehold) and another the value of the improvements. Frequently to the derived without regard The value of the the other and best use. provements, On | cost. property, assumed under the conditions assumed appraisals. The addition of such frac- tional appraisals to derive an opinion of the total] value of the property, whether such fractional appraisals are made by different appraisers or by one demned as unsound, inaccurate, misleading, because this method bases the opinion of value on the addition of values which may not simultaneously obtain, and ignores the effect of an over, under, or misplaced improvement, and disregards the interrelation be- tween land (or leasehold) value and the value of the improvement. This ities, of the economic soundness of the | improvement in regard to the relation | of its cost to its rentability and normal /earning power.” : Appraisal Division to Meet.

Ee EN A nN a CAPITAL CONTENDER FOR REALTORS: CUP Delegation From Washington to Boston, So Far 58, Is Unusually Large. TO SPEAK FOR HOME TOWN Washington realtors will attend the realtors’ convention in Boston in large numbers and take an active part in the program according to Morris Cafritz, chairman of the local convention com-| mittee. At the present time it was Stated, there are 58 registered in the Washington delegation, with every prospect of the number being increased before the date for leaving the latter part of June. Incidentally, Mr. Cafritz pointed out that the size of the dele- gation to the Boston convention ex- ceedg by 50 per cent the largest dele- gation ever heretofore sent to an annual convention of the National Association of Real Estate Boards. In view of the large number attend- P| JUNE CONNECTICUT AVENUE HOME ing the convention, the Washington board will likely be a contender for the attendance cup which is awarded each year by the president of the national association to the board which sends the largest number of its members to the convention. In deciding the win- ner, the percentage of members is de- vided into the number of miles trav- eled.! One year the small board in Shreveport, La., with only five members, sent all five to a convention in a dis- tant Western city and won the cup, notwithstanding the fact that a nume- ber of boards from large cities sent delegations many times larger. For the first time Washington will be represented in the national “Home- town Speaking Contest,” participated in by realtors from all parts of the country, each describing the merits of his particular home town. This has been one of the most popular -features of the realtors’ convention in the past and Washington will be represented in the contest by W. Cameron Burton, who will undertake to demonstrate the many advantages of the Nation’s Capi- tal. Mr. Burton was winner of the speaking contest held by the local board last winter and which was par- ticipated in by a group of both realtors and associates. In Advertising Contest. Another interesting section of the convention will find Washington well represented by a splendid exhibit of display advertising which has been en- tered in the national advertising con- test. This contest, Mr. Cafrtiz stated, was inaugurated several years ago by the officials of the national association as a méans to stimulate interest in the development of higher grade real estate advertising throughout the country. In view of the fact that Washington is the second city in the country in point of quantity of real estate advertising, the local committee under the supervision of R. Bates Warren, had a wide field from which to select specimen adver- tisements.for the local board’s exhibit. This section of the convention will be under the direction of Mr. Warren and a large space has been reserved in the Hotel Statler, which is the head- quarters hotel of the convention. In addition to the speaker for the five-minute speaking contest, Washing- ton also supplies two other speakers for the convention. At one of the ses- sions of the property management divi- sion Pleasanton C. Bowie, of the H. L. Rust Co., will -discuss “Cooperative Renting, Maintenance and Operation of New and Old Apartment Buildings.” During the convention of real estate board secretaries’ held in connection with the realtors’ convention John A. Petty, executive secretary of the local board, will déliver an address on “The Development of Real Estate Board Ac- tivities.” Leave for Boston June 21. All arrangements for the trip have been consummated, Mr. Cafritz said, and the delegation will leave Washing- ton Friday afternoon, June 21, and trave] to Boston by steamer, stopping at Baltimore and Norfolk en route. On this same steamer reservations have been made for members of the Alexan- dria-Arlington-Fairfax Real Estate Board and the real estate boards of Baltimore, Richmond and Norfolk. Clarence F. Donohoe, past president of the local board, and a smal] party of friends are making a special trip in ad- vance of the delegation which will take them on a tour of Canada, arriving in Boston on the opening day of the con- vention. Upon arrival in Boston -the entire delegation will be established at the Copley-Plaza Hotel as the head- quarters of the local realtors. Among those who will attend the convention are Mr. and Mrs. Ben T. Webster, Mr. and Mrs. William L. King, W. Cameron Burton, Richard D. Stim- son, Pleasanton C; Bowle, Thomas D. Lewis, Mr, and Mrs. E. E. Goss, Mr. and Mrs. John G. Graham, Mr. and Mrs. B. B. Ezrine, Waverly Taylor, Morris Cafritz, J.B. Shapiro, Mr. and Mrs. L. T. Gravatte, John A. Petty, Mr. and Mrs. Karl E.

STUDY OF BEAUTY URGED Architects must act to stop enor- mous economic losses resulting from lack of constructive city planning, de- Clare Charles H. Cheney, of Los Angeles, new chairman of the commit- tee on city, community and regional planning of the American Institute of Architects. Mr. Cheney asserts that the archi- tects must make the United States “planning minded,” and “architecture minded.” “There is,”’ he adds, “an almost unl- versal lack of understanding of the importance of architecture and its in- separable setting, landscape architec- ture, which together form the back- ground or environment for all the peo- ple of this country, particularly where they are grouped together in cities. “Over 500 American cities ase now reported by the Department of Com- merce to have city planning commis- Sions. Yet, with the exception of St. Louis, and a very few other cities, there are seldom architects on these commissions, and if there are they do not seem to know what to do. Bad Designs Wasteful. “Scarcely any real esthetic considera- tions have been included in American city planning to date. Meanwhile there is enormous economic 108s every- where because of the bad design and planning of both individual and group buildings and of off-color structures, which must be scrapped and replaced in a few years. “It is time to place in the hands of these planning commissions or others responsible for city improvement plans a definite constructive program for im- proving architecture in the mass. “There is a continually increasing demand for constructive guidance to stop the enormous waste arising from this 90 per cent or more, in number, of ugly and inappropriate buildings now going up in practically all of our cities, greatly depreciating their neigh- bors, and, worse than that, creating unhappy, stilted, ugly environmental conditions bound to react badly upon the large proportion of the people of the country who must live in them. This condition is mentally unhealthy, and economically and socially unsound. U. S. “City builders, architects and én- gineers are faced with stern responsi- bilities. This is the planning age. America confidently enters it, and, with higher standards of living than man has ever known before, will brook no little plans, no_ tinkering, no dalliance with half-way measures. Man must ‘have in this urban era that joy of living which is only truly satisfied by a highly esthetic environment as well as by sound social and economic conditions. “City planning is futile which does not keep ever first in mind its human purpose and objectives. Too long have we talked about the dry, mechanical processes Of planning; too little have we emphasized the importance of the beautiful. “Bconomic, social and esthetic con- siderations are inseparable m any com- plete planning for the best urban life, or even for the best country life. The old ‘City Beautiful’ slogans and cam- paigns of twenty or more years ago lacked the solid economic and social foundations necessary to make them succeed, and we had to soft-pedal them until better public understanding of all three phases of city butiding was achieved. “Now the public has caught up with the city planners. In fact, it is ahead of them. City planners must wake up or they will be soon cast aside for leaders with better grasp of the public demands of our time.” Enters Planning Agev Plans Are Approved By Architects’ Council The following plans were approved by the Architects’ Advisory Council dur- ing the past week as announced by the office of Maj.

This is the opinion of George Oakley Totten, architect. The great monuments, palaces and temples of the Mayas offer rich possibil- ities to the American builder, he de- clares. Their style may be profitably adapted to modern needs, he believes, with such materials as terra cotta be- ing used to effect economies and to give the brilliant colors a permanence which was unfortunately lacking in the painted stone of the originals. “The art and architecture of the an- clent Mayas,” says Mr. Totten, “were so highly developed as to fairly rival imperial Rome, with which they were contemporaneous. In Yucatan, Guata- mala and.Honduras, there are the re- mains of a score of cities, all now over- grown by the tropical jungle, which any country. Great Pyramids Restored. “Some of these have been excavated. The Carnegie Institution of Washing- tom has been restoring the great pyra- mids and palaces of Chichen-Itza.

Some of the temples were used for sacrificial purposes and these have staircases on 'al] four sides. “Tae architecture of the Maya civill- |Zation was in brilliant colors, applied as }thin washes.

Gen. George S. Gibbs. chief signal of- ficer. The various corps area signa! of- cers have been made responsible for @ organization of amateur operators in their corps areas. _In organizing these amateur opera- tors the Signal Corps is utilizing whe riet system which has been found by experience best adapted for organizing and training individuals for coordinated effort in times of stress. By means of the net system each operator in the net will know what is expected of him anid how to go about doing it. The nets are centered in strategical epee in each geographical! area of each te, in the several State capitals, in the corps area headquarters and Washington. The Army amateur net control station is located at Fort Monmouth, N. J., from which Washing- ton can be worked by tadlo, telephone aimd telegraph. e activities of two amateur radio cperators during the Florida hurricane last year demonstrated the assistance they can render during such times. For two days and nights these operators furnished the on'y means of commun!- cation between the devastated area and the outside world. Why not go into business for your- eelf?

Early in 198 the American Institute lof Architects had suggested that the |Government Bireau of Standards frame ia standard building code that might be used in citbs throughout the.coun- try; and an acvisory committee of the 'new division undertook this work. It ‘found 800 different building codes in ‘effect in as many cities, with, the re- ‘quirements varying from a 17-inch ‘brick wall in one city to an 8-inch 'brick wall in another city, both pre- iscribed for three-story homes. One of ‘these must be wrong, said the division. Building codes need only prescribe what dimensions and'/precautions are safe. If a brick wall dbes not need to be 17 inches thick, theh home builders forced ‘to use such a Wall are buying more ' brick and paying: more for their dwell- | ings than they sould. | Plumbing pipe, as every one knows, |forms an item of considerable propor- tion on the home owner's bill; yet the Government Hojsing Bureau, in their standard building code work, found that the codes if some cities called for 'a 4-inch plumbmg soil pipe, whereas }tests at the Bureau of Standards, with | which the divisioa is connected, showed that a/3-inch pipe is adequate for any ‘house and fits better in partitions in the small home. The findings of the special commit- ‘tee appointed tO draw up a standard | building code showed many ways in Main 5904 which home building could be under- taken at less expense and still meet the ‘requirements of safety, and the reports iof this committee have been used in JAMESON-BUILT NEW HOMES } Ready to Move in—6, 7 and 8 Large Rooms * ON EASY TERDCiS 3 CHOICE LOCATIONS 200 American cities that had been using obsolete and out-¢f-date codes.

Besides the housing division also worked the division of simplified prac- tice that quietly conducted investiga- | tions for several years and then startled home builders by announcing that manufacturers were making window frames in 450 differemt sizes; that both common and face byick could be ob- tained in 40 different sizes, and that about 160 different sizes of bathtubs were on the market, The expense to manufacturers of turning out so many different models obviously was being passed on to the home buyer, who could very well meke his selection from a less bewildertrtg array of window frames and bathtubs. Indeed points out James 8S. Taylor, acting chief of the division, the old gag about the plumber taking time to go back for his tools was not the poor Plumber's fault. Armerican manufac- turers were making so many different types and sizes of plumbing fixtures that no plumber could carry all the parts on the market; nor could he know what lot number was required until he inspected the job: hence the time off to return t the shop. Such equipment is becoming stand- ardized without losing any of its effi- clency, a8 a result of the simplified practice work and this in time will not only cut down on the initial cost © the home Owner, says.

The Government division is in favor of communities making such surveys also from the point of view of the pos- sibilities of long range planning of future construction, which can be un- dertaken more intelligently if present conditions are known, says Mr. Taylor Realizing the growing importance of zoning in protecting the property of the home owner, the division some years ago made a study of such legis- lation. It foresaw the dangers in zon- ing laws that provided no method of appeal for owners of property falling under what were then new laws; and a committee appointed by Mr. Hoover Grafted a standard State zoning enabling act which includes a board of appeals in its set up and provides for public hearings, so that exceptions may be made when zoning works too. great a hardship on property owners. This standard act, which has been adopted in 33 States, has also aided the develop- ment of zoning practice, by giving judges and attorneys in one State the assistance of legal opinions rendered in cases decided in another State. As these opinions are based on the same law, they become valuable to all jurists trying zoning cases, and have thus built up a background of practice that has furthered the zoning idea. Scrutinizing Lien Acts. Another committee working with the housing division is now engaged in a study of State mechanics’ lien acts. Under some of these laws, expenses sometimes are passed on to the home builder by bankrupt or unscrupulous contractors or builders who do not use the home bDbuilder’s fund to pay for materials, but make him pay twice for the same items. The committee .be- ieves that amended legislation may re- sult in aiding honest builders and other business groups concerned as well as home owners. And for years fhe division, by co- operating with Better Homes in Ameri- ca, of which Herbert Hoover was the head, has aided progressive women in cities throughout the country conduct- ing local better homes campaigns. This movement of which Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur, Secretary of the Interior, is now president, has centered every year in excellent demonstration houses built in many sections. Through the aid of women’s clubs and organizations, these have provided a_ visual on home ownership by showing hundreds of thousands of people what} is good in architecture, materials and | equipment. In this connection also the booklets | entitled ‘“‘How to Own Your, Home,” and “Present Home Financing Methods,” prepared’ by the department experts, have found their way into thousands of homes stirred home owning and ownership, and the young men who type long reports in the Department of Commerce Bullding in Washington are tainable in on the Western plaifis.

Don’t we rather mean that he lacks human sym- pathy and understanding, and therefore can be of no real use to anybody? If you remember the character of Hilda in Hawthorne's novel, “The Marble 'Faun,” you may remember that she religious life. ‘Her soul was like a star and dwelt apart.” But from the sel- fish sanctity of its seclusion, no real good resulted; no one was aided or cheered in the struggle of life. No one could confide in her, for she could not even confide in herself. Her nature may have had the purity of an angel, but it lacked the purity of a noble woman. She was no help to sinners; she was their despair. Her purity was like that of one who hesitates to rescue tof the will. a drowning man, for fear of soiling his clothes. Hilda gave up the world and worldly pleasure; easily enough, for she ab- horred it, and felt ill at ease in society. But though she gave up many things precious to the average person, she had no conception of the meaning of the word self-denial. For the true sacrifice, if one wishes to be of real use in this world, consists not in the giving of things, but in giving oneself. If a man’s life consists not in the abundance of things which he possesseth, so the -|sacrificial life consists not in the num- ber of luxuries one surrenders, but in the devotion of oneself, in the denial There is a certain kind of purity which is fundamentally selfish. This manner of asceticism is not par- ticularly common nowadays, and we need not fear that it will be too gen- erally practiced.

SS daa ee tami ————— C ee ee — | respectable selfishness. A senna temsieeenee ee tof those events Ss ee a a Se EO ES A TT AT a Na —— FHAT do we really mean when we jspectability, a selfishness that springs ifrom pure moral motives and a long- ing for the elevation of character. But there is another type of respec- table selfishness that ts far more com- mon, possibly more common in Amer- ica than in any other country. It is not usually recognized as selfishness, but regarded as one of the greatest— perhaps the greatest—of the virtues. It is seen chiefly among earnest and ambitious young men, who appreciate that life is not a holiday, but a serious affair, a struggle, a strictly competitive race, where if you stop for a moment, even for reflection, you are left hope- lessly behind. We are bound to respect and honor these men. They have at all events found out half the secret of life. They have set before themselves some goal, in politics, in business, in literature, and they are determined to reach it. They are equally determined to gain the prize by no dishonorable means. Their minds are full of the lessons learned from their predecessors, men who by the sacrifice of temporary plea- sures, by the refusal to indulge in recreation or relaxation, have surpassed their competitors and reached the top. We are constantly told that it is only by intense concentration, by ter- rific efforts day and night, and by keep- ing the end constantly in view that one can attain success. Surely these young men are to be admired, surely they are models, examples worthy of emulation? Well, they are better than criminals, they are better than parasites, they are better than drones. But their driving motive is selfisheness. Tennyson wrote “The Palace of Art,” Browning wrote “Paracelsus,” because each of these poets knew that his individual danger was not what is usually known by “temptation.” They knew that they would never go to hell by the crowded highway of dissipatton, for they were above the mere call of the blood. Their danger lay in a high and noble ambi- tion, which has wrecked many first- rate minds. Modern life tends to encourage this The central law of the so-called science of econom- ics is selfishness. A whole science is built on one foundation—that every man in the world will get all he can ~ ee aoe se amr en - — 2 oe eee = - aa a —- — = = Se ee ~ ee a a a ee for himself. The subject is naturally studied not from an ethical, but from a scientific standpoint. Life is a race, where the hindmost must share the proverbial fate. , Now I believe that efficlency—mere practical success in the world—is as false an ideal as asceticism. If the morality of withdrawal is not good enough, neither is the morality of suc- cess. Those deserve the highest admira- tion and the most profound respect who have actually aided their human brethren, who have left the world bet- ter than they found it. This is by no means a hopeless ideal of character. It is not necessary to crush a tryant or to organize a revo- lution or to reconstruct society or to be’ a professional reformer. There are plenty of professional reformers who have tremendous enthusiasm for hu- manity and who have never helped an Individual. Those who by unselfish lives and consideration for others ele- vate the tone of the community in which they lve and who by their presence make others happier, these are | the salt of the earth. Their dally ex- | | istence is.more eloquent than a sermon. American young men and women in our high schools and universities are not often face to face with the mystery of life. They have no conception of the amount of suffering in the world. Thetr own lives are. comparatively free from it, in many cases free even from anxiety. These boys and girls are for the most part sensible, alert, quick- witted, and pracitcal; what I should like to see would be a change in their ideals from mere success to something nobler. I should like to see thém devoting their intellrgence and energy to the alleviation of suffering and to the ele- vation of human thought and life. If one still believes that the highest happiness and satisfaction comes from the attainment of any selfish ambition, no matter how worthy in ftself, it is well to remember the significance of the fact that Goethe, acknowledged to be one of the wisest of men, made Faust happy only when he wae unsel- fishly interested in the welfare of others; and to remember that Benjamin Franklin, perhaps the shrewdest of all shrewd Americans, found the greatest pleasure of his long life in two things —public service and indivtdual acts of kindness. (Copyright, 1929.) AT THE CHESS TABLE By WILLARD H. MUTCHLER. The handicap tourncment now in progress at the City Club’s chess unit is rapidly nearing its conclusion. In group 1 J. Roberts and F. B, Walker are both certain of advancing to the finals, while A. Y. Hesse may fein them in the event that he wins his partie with Walker. In the recent games Hesse defeated Parsons while Roberts was dis- }posing of Hervey. The standing: L, L. by Player. W. Player. W. F. T. Parsons.2 J. Roberts...4%42 3 F. B. Walker.3 1 G. W.

Wiley, jr., A. E. Martin. Jacob Frech writes, “Problem. 316 generates about 22,000,000 series. Among these a mere handful of series of forced mates are said to be con- cealed. I feel as though I have ex- amined about 10,000,000 of them, and have thus far found the following mid- dle term tending to prove that Q-QB7 ts a keymove: A problem in which white can force one of the following series: 1 Q-QB7; 2 Q-K5 or R-Q3 or -QR3 or Kt-Q6 or Kt6; 3 mate, Q@-QB5 or -KKt7 or -QKt6, or R-K3 or -Q3 or -KB3 or -QB5 or Kt-Kt5 or B-Q3. A near-key, Q-K7, is, I think, defeatable only - by . Kt—Q3. The problem affords useful exercise in the genus dis- cover-check and its startling double- check species.

It is to be doubted whether any period preceding or fol- lowing his leadership has been crowded with both the number and the interest which occurred dur- ing his presidency. Col.

Indians, for their squaws, they must have left their kitchen utensils everywhere but in their proper places. His Hobby Born. Some 30 years ago, when a resident | of Merrimas, Mr. Ferguson found him- | ‘self without a hobby, but about that | time he came into possession of a few | ‘Indian arrowheads and his hobby was | |suddenly born. Soon after, while _vacation, he found the plantation on which he was visiting with Mrs. Fer- guson almost literally studded with In- spearheads, hold duties, hobby hard. til today Mr. Ferguson has some 2,500 specimens of stone weapons and imple- ments mounted and classified. ciassification. He himself has not found them all. One lot he bought from a dealer, for there are dealers who handle Indian relics. Others have been given him by friends and acquaintances who know of his interest in the hobby. Best Hunting in Rain. Weather for arrowhead hunting is as | F important to followers of the sport as it is to those who fish for the finny tribe. A few days of good, soaking rain is ideal for an arrowhead hunt. Mr. Fer- guson prefers to carry an umbrella, but that, he points out, is not absolutely essential. the rain, not to poke in the mud. Once on the chosen hunting ground, land, Manchaug, one of the Brookfields, Sunbury, Webster, near the lake of the long name; Charlton, Medway or Millis, or even right in the City of Worcester, he parks his car, unlimbers his umbrel- what he has learned from long ex- perience is likely hunting ground. He may find a very choice specimen, or three of them, or not any, but he | has had the pleasure of forgetting temporarily such troubles as a school superintendent may be heir to and, ac- cording to Mrs. Ferguson, he has man- aged to get thoroughly wet in spite of | his umbrella.

Arrowheads range in are perhaps an inch long, up to those 2'%4 inches long, which were especially | reserved for settlers and other large | Lance and spearheads are still | game. longer and larger.

In the collection also are double-bit- ted axes of stone, grooved around the center for fastening the hardle witn 'thongs; stone weapons that had been | |laboriously chipped to as satisfactory |an edge as many a householder's gx | ‘boasts today. Like a Chopping Knife. the curved steel chopping knife the housewife of today uses with her chopping bowl. Stone hoes, mortars and pestles, stone scrapers and knives and curing the hides, stone sinkers and perforated “‘breastplates” (so-called be- cause they have always been found on the breasts of Indian skeletons) are among the curios. And in Mr. Ferguson’s possession are one or two stone paint cups, round stones hollowed out on one side to form a receptacle for compounding the paints used for ceremonial and war purposes. From the glistening white of quartz and mica to the black of slate, with jasper, flint, felsite, quartzite, jaspilite, argillite, basalt and rhyolite range the materials from which Mr. Ferguson has made his collection. Their original use was in various sections of Massachu- setts, Arkansas and Georgia. And the end of the collection is not yet. How About It?

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, ——— ea, a ~. ~ en a MONEY-CONSCIOUSNESS AND ITS DIRE EFFECT ON TRUTH By NELSON B. BELL © is usual when any innovation finds its way to the screen, the aesthetes and the dilettantes discover themselves to be acutely annoyed. It was so when “Lights of New York,” the first all- talking picture ever released, disclosed itself to an astonished, if not a Wholly enraptured, world; it was so when “The Broadway Melody” re- vealed the possibility of motion picture musical comedy; when “The Désert Song” demonstrated the feasibility of transcribing operetta to a elhematographic form of expression and now is true again in the case of the “Fox Movietone Follies,” first of the screen revues, It has been my observation that in the matter of these first essays there has been no middle ground. One has been either intensely en- thusiastic over a new and courageous accomplishment or he has been devastated in mind and spirit by the ruthless debauching of a once noble art now ,gone to the perdition bow-wows. ee as the score stands, I have been among the more violent of \the rooters practically without exception. 4 “To be sure, as memory recalls it, I believe 1\was sufficiently luke- watm in the case of “Lights of New York” to admit that the dialogue, in the intermittent manner in which the microphong was then able to en- compass it, did slow the action to almost a snail’s Ot There were, too, a few minor defects that fell something short of setting me on fire in “The Broadway Melody” and ‘“‘The Desert Song,” but taken by and large, it seemed to me that all of these pioneering efforts held out such promise of an eventually perfected form of entertainment the screen never before had known as to warrant their being given the benefit of the doubt. That is my view also with regard to the “Fox Follies.”” It is by no means without flaw, but it is by far the most able first attempt I have seen. “AS I look back upon the successive achievements of the Messrs. Zieg- feld, White, Carrol, Anderson, Shubert and the others who have devoted their peculiarly abundant talents to the development of the stage revue, -I am strengthened in my belief that none of them began with perfection. “3a of them have not even ended with it! e ena HIS, nevertheless, seems to be the difficult requirement the films are expected to meet. They must begin with perfection and con- » tigue to improve from there! Or so I am led to believe by some of the communications that have followed the publication of a bit of laudation inspired by the ‘“‘Movietone Follies” in last Monday morning’s edition of The Post. ~ “Mr. Frank L. Baer, a young man of erudition whose interests these many vears have paralleled the theater, remonstrates to the extent of three typed pages at my inability to perceive the many imperfections of @ camera diversion that I took pains to say was in my view by no means perfect. Following a paroxysm of deep and poignant grief that Mr. For should have managed to purchase 6&0 little for the $1,000,000 his “Follies” are reputed to have cost, and discerning only such tarnished wares as “dullness, insipidity, brashness and cheapness” among the counterfeit commodities of the theater Mr. Fox bought with al] that money, Mr. Baer continues in part as follows: ne de not mean to slaughter you for giving the picture a pip of a “Matice, but I do wonder what has gone wrong with the world in general when dramatic sharp-eyes such as you and Mr. Andrew R, Kelley appear to park your special talents for appraising matters histrionic and musical] in*the office before attending the films.” While I can not, of course, presume to speak for Mr. Kelley, Mr, Baer does me an injustice. It was on Sunday afternoon a week.ago that I reyiewed the “Fox Follies” for The Post and on Sunday I do not visit the office until after I have concluded the pleasant duty of misjudging thé films, so I could not have mislaid any of my special talents there. Mr. Baer, however, is not wholly at sea in his divinations. As I re- east-the circumstances of last Sabbath in my mind, there were indeed rming elements decidedly prejudicial to an unbiased view of Mr. Fox's prodigious extravagance. I had just come straight from ten hours’ €dr@araiess sleep, a refreshing cold shower and a delicious chicken dinner I dare say I-did approach the afternoon’s task with an exorbitantl; " gmplified capacity for enjoyment! I was so entertained by the “Follies” that such a thing as &n adverse criticism never entered my mind—which only goes to show that after this I shall have to arrange to get a little more vitriol and vinegar into my work or else turn it over to some good hangman. ~ a B™. the parking of our special! talents is not a]] that irritates my cor- respondent. He descries a lamentable disintegration of the finer judgments wont to be exercised by Mr. Kelley and me under the merci- jess pounding of the incessant sound of large figures purportedly rep- resenting preposterous sums of money—as witness: -“You—or any one else for that matter—can not well forget that ‘the movies’ fit into an ‘exhibitionist’ scheme; they have a place in our lives just as the theater. When the ‘exhibits’ in the theater are bad—which they have been for the past season or two—-wé say s0. But not so with the filme and their appraisers. Can it be that so much ‘apparent money’ is involved in salaries, production costs, &c., that the assumed magnitude of the industry frightens ore into submission; scares you and Mr. Kelley into a shedding of perspectives and the assuming of phoney standards of judgment?” I can go along with Mr. Baer as far as the sentence that says, ‘‘But not £0 with the films and their appraisers.’”” There I become so shocked ” and grieved at his very palpable indifference to the critical columns of The Post that I can not hold with him further. I purpose bringing thia portion of his letter to the attention of Mr. Payette, Mr. Cullen, Mr. Ideal, Mr. Carrier and the rest of the boys presiding over our local pic- ture houses as evidence that I have not knocked their magic lantern shows, after all. Again I can not serve as mouthpiece for my codefendant, but there eomes to mind no occasion upon which I have been money-conscious while viewing a picture. On the contrary, it seems to me that Mr. Baer is the one who has watched the screen through eyes that have been jaundiced by the stacks of yellow gold. Having read in the advance notices of the colossal sum Mr. Fox is said to have spent in assembling his “Follies,” I suspect that Mr. Baer, fa- miliar with the cost of stage productions, visited the Fox Theater with his heart set upon reveling in the splendors of a spectacle heavily en- ertsted with gems of wit, music and beauty—not in any ees @mount, but s million dollars’ worth! Naturally, he failed to apprehend any such opulent vision. A nies deal of that million, I dare say, remained in the studio on the West Coast and in the cutting room of the Fox laboratory there. * . = * Gee HAT Mr. Baer, or any other discriminating observer, might have 3 au detected upon a close scrutiny of the “Fox Follies” was an ev scene treatment that far excelled anything the stage ever _ gotild hope to accomplish in diversity and speed of sequence; settings and -. e@stumes that bespoke a resourcefulness that was distinctly an asset; Bon sure-fire song hits in “Breakaway” and ‘Walkin’ With Susie,” ac- ee @ variety of kaleidoscopic investitures as rapid in succession as | “the clicking of the camera shutter; backstage shots that no “legitimate” could ever bring to an audience, and voices enough to “get over”’ even without names previously distinguished in the theater to aid them. — _Mr. Baer professes to hold lightly, ‘their traveling camera cranes and their trick photographic methods,” although these to me seem among the “Follies” most important superiorities as a precursor of what the _ future may be expected to divulge.

WORLD HISTORY CLOSELY BOUND TO NOAW’S ARK Ham, Shem and Japheth, sons of the patriarch, play prominent parts in the biblical sequences of “Noah's Ark,” the Warner Bros.’ Vitaphone superspecial, étarring Dolores Costello with George O’Brien, now showing at the Metro- politan Theater. This is believed to be the first time that the heroes of the flood have been dramatized, if one excepts the opera sequel to Dryden's “Fall of Man,” “Noah’s Flood” or the “History of the General Deluge.” George O’Brien gives a magnificent portrayal of the fearless and fiery Japheth in “Noahs Ark.” This is a dual role, O’Brien in the earlier, mod- ern sequences of the stupendous spec- tacle, playing the part of an A. E. F. buddy of the World War. During @ vivid story told by a chaplain in the midst of bombardment, the characters, Travis and his sweetheart, Mary— played by Dolores Costello—are waft- ed back to the days of Noah, playinZz their parts in the tumult and terror of the days before the deluge, vis (Japheth) finally bearing Mary (Mir- lam) to the safety of the ark. Of the sons of Noah, sacred history relates much that is of interest to all humanity. Ham-—the name being in- terpreted either as hot or multitude— was the sire of Cush, Mizraim, Phut and Canaan, who became the found- ers of large nations. Cush seems to have been the father of the peoples dwelling in Babylonia, southern Ara- bia and Ethiopia; Nimrod was his son. Mizraim—the Hebrew word for Egypt— was the ancestor of the Egyptians. Phut was also the ancestor of an Af- rican people, aS appears from the as- sociation of his name with the de- scendants of Cush and the Lydians. Canaan was the ancestor of the Phoe- niclans and other tribes inhabiting Palestine. Egypt is called “the land of Ham.” Shem—the word meaning name— was the eldest son of Noah. The Jews are his descendants, and besides, there are the Aramaéans, Persians, Assyrians and Arabians. Japheth—translated as enlargement —is supposed to have been the an- cestor of the dwellers in the “Isles of the Gentiles”—that is, the coast of the Mediterranean Sea in Europe and Asia Minor—whence they spread north- ward over the whole continent of Eu- rope and a considerable portion of Asia. A 38-acre lot, which was formerly the Vitagraph studio in Hollywood, was used for the Warner Bros.’ spectacu- lar production, “‘Noah’s Ark,” now be- ing presented exactly as at the New York $2 engagement, with sound ef- fects augmented by Vitaphone Sym- phonic accompaniment at the Metro- politan. Sets of mammoth proportions were built for the biblical sequences, in which the Festival of Jaghut is a dra- matic high point of the story. Ons group of these buildings, representing the approach and court of the tem- ple, occupies more than two city blocks, the three principal structures which comprise it ranging along three sides of the rectangle. William Koe- nig, studio manager, reports that more than 1,100 carpenters were engaged on this one temple group alone. Art creations, which it is estimated tooks hundreds of persons a lifetime to make, were reproduced for the screen as decorative background for “Noah's Ark,” prominent among which is a great tapestry hanging, which the art department of Warner Bros. designed and executed in vee to originals to have h the pegan temples of Noah's — Eleanor Griffith in “Alibi” Dolores Costello in “Noah’s Ark” —Metropolitan.

A PET STAR OF PARIS REVUES IN FILM DEBUT A voice and a personality that have brought Parisian audiences to their feet in wild applause, that have made Englishmen forget the London tradi- tion of unemotionalism, and that have made their possessor an international star, played havoc at the Paramount Studios recently. The voice and the personality are those of Maurice Chevalier. When he was but a youth in his teens Maurice Chevalier became the dancing partner of Mistinguette at the famed Foties Bergere. He had risen to the threshhold of fame after many disap- pointments. But the war came shortly after he started his military training period. He was wounded, captured and im- prisoned by the Germans, from whom he escaped after posing as a Red Cross worker with a fellow prisoner. He rejoined Mistinguette after the war, and in a short time became a star, and is now playing at the Earle Theater in Paramount’s all-talking and singing hit, “Innocents of Paris.” When this idol of the music halls of Paris and London was making his first picture at the Hollywood studios, ‘‘In- nocents of Paris,” there wasn’t much work done by anyone else. When word got around the lot (as it does, quickly and mysteriously), that Chevalier was about to sing for the camera and the microphone, a general migration from all the other depart- ments—stages, shops, mills and offices took place. Workmen, writers, stenog- raphers and directors slipped over to the set to listen to this man who 1s rated as the greatest international en- tertainer of our day. Sylvia Beecher, petite, gray-eyed stage beauty who provides the feminine half of the love-interest in Chevalier’s first film, is the great-great-grand- daughter of a former governor of Penn- sylvania. She was born jn Alton, N. H., and educated at Garden City, L. I. She lived for a time with her family in Mex- ico. She was enjoying success on the New York stage when she went to Hollywood where she had a small part in “The Legion of the Condemned,” in 1927. Thus started her screen career.

The story of “The Weavers,” well known to the many Hauptmann follow- ers, portrays the struggles of the Sile- sian peasants in their fight for higher wages and social recognition. Among the outstanding - characteris- tics-of the film is its unique camera work, in which the grotesque and dis- torted effects which heighten the artis- try of the picture were ‘“‘shot” by means of a third camera perched on the cell- ing or on the floor, “The Weavers” be- ing one of the pioneer pictures to adopt the various camera angles now usual in almost every motion picture of merit. “The Weavers” was directed by Fred- erich Zelnick, who produced “Dancing Vienna” and “Beautiful Blue Danube” and was indorsed by Gerhardt Haupt- mann, the author, who viewed the pic ture shortly after its production. The cast, headed by Paul Wegener, star of “The Golem,” who portrays the role of Dreissiger, the rich manufac- turer, includes Wilhelm Dieterle, George John, Albert Steinruck, Rina De Li- guore and Hermann Picha, all noted German players. Veteran Added. Claude Gillingwater, ‘veteran charac- lon actor, has joined the cast of “The Divide,” support Dorothy Great to Mackall! ; Maurice Laura La Plante in “The Last Warning’—Rialto.

NOVARRO WILL SING IN ROLE OF PAGAN LAD The circle of persons privileged to hear and enjoy Ramon Novarro’s voice will be increased a thousandfold with “The Pagan,” new Metro-Goldwyna- Mayer film, now playing at Loew's Palace, in which Novarro sings for the general public for the first time. One of the chief spare-time interests of Novarro is his “teatro intime,” or little playhouse, built as a part of his home in Beverly Hills. Close friends of the young Mexican actor, who is one of the most reticent of the players on the West Coast, know that he spends a large share of his evenings either at the opera or in his home theater. The latter, while its extremely intimate auditorium seats only 65 persons, is as completely equipped in proportion to its size as a big amusemient house. Resembling the other parts of his home in its Spanish type of architecture, the the- ater was. constructed about two years ago under the personal supervision of the film star- It is,a well-known fact that Novarro has a rich voice of great promise. He has pursued his vocal studies during recent years under some of the fors- most teachers in the country, and now has plans for a concert tour in addi- tion to grand opera. In his private theater, however, he confines himself to a rendition of ballads and songs for a small, select circle of: friends, and to occasional cooperative dramatic performances or film previews. Over the little latticed door that admits the privileged visitor to this inner sanctum appears the sign, in luminous white script letters: “Novar- ro’s Teatro Intime.” Simply and taste- fully decorated within, the eight rows of seats are arranged on a gradual slope leading down to a_ velvet-cur- tained stage. The stage itself has every modern device for proper lighting and for scenic effects, so that, except for its limited area, any type of produc- tion might easily be given here. A souvenir program of a _ concert given recently at Novarro’s home the- ater, shortly before his departure for Europe, where he will appear in opera, indicates that the film star’s prefer- ence is for the songs of his homeland, Mexico. On the stage, Herbert Rawlinson, Hollywood’s ‘‘ambassador of joy,” takes the Palace Syncopators for a walk in Jack Partington’s “Fifth Avenue.” In the cast of this presentation are some artists well known to Washington, the Caites Brothers, whirlwind dancers; Dolores, Eddy and Douglas, the fly- ing dancers; Hector and Pals, pet shop prides; Robert Cloy, the golden-voiced singer, and the Albertina Rasch Ballet, with Eleanor Verande, Fifth avenue’s finest. Harry Borjes, with the Palace Or- chestra, Charles Gaige at the organ; the Fox Movietone News, the M-G-M News and short subjects will com- prise the remainder of the program. Scientists Applaud. The Society of Motion Picture Engi- neers, in convention assembled at the Park Céntral Hotel in New York, saw “Alibi” privately, and it was the first talking picture viewed by the film scientists. The showing took place atop the Park Centra] Hotel on Monady eve- ning, and it is with permission of the society that United Artists records the enthusiasm of those assembled. Viewed technically, and as an advanced talking picture, “Alibi” was applauded for two minutes at ite conclusion. ‘+ logue and sound effects. ONE OF MINSTRELSY’S VETS’ _ | RECALLS THE DISTANT PAST!

NOVEL DEVICES GIVE TOUCH OF MUSTY OLD AGE Laura La Plante, co-star with John Boles in Universal's talking picture “The Last Warning,” which is the cur- rent feature at the Rialto, was born in the old French Market district of St. Louis. From there her family mov- ed to San Diega, Colo. Her one am- bition was the screen her first entry into motion pictures was as an extra.

It was made into one of New York’s most suc- cessful stage plays, “The Last Warn- ing,” by Thomas F. Fallon. Paul Leni, wizard of weird screen effects, direct- ed the picture which ts said to his former success “The Cat and the Canary” with the added aid of dia- The story deals with a theater which has been closed for five years because of the mysterious death of a popular actor. Suddenly, an attempt is made to put on the same play in which he met his death, with the original cast as far as possible. The ghost of the murdered star seems to haunt the theater. Strange and fearful things happen during rehearsals. Mysterious warnings threaten the actors. The open- ing night is a riot of chills and thrills with a smashing climax. The dialogue, taken from the play, plus the mysterious sounds, screams and other effects, makes the picture a veritable breath-taker. The cast supporting Miss La Plante and John Boles includes Montagu Love, Roy D’Arcy, Bert Roach, Mar- garet Livingston. Mack Swain, Burr McIntosh and other notables of stage and screen.

Checking the lists of supernumer- aries employed in “Evangeline,” the manager’s report shows that in eight weeks at Point Lobos, Calif., where Ca- fewe reproduced the entire village of Grand Pre, for fourteen consecutive days more than 900 extras were employed each day. There were four days when more than 1,000 peasant types and 250 red-coated soldiers (from the barracks at Monterey) were used, For nine days the daily roll call of extras was between '400 and 500 and on no day were less than 250 extras used at Point Lobos. In the studios, where intimate in- teriors have been made, on 9 of the 33 days of studio work, more than 300 men were dally employed, and on 4 days to this total from 75 to 150 women | were added.

Because he could not find twenty girls with long hair at Carmel, Calif., Mr. Carewe sent to Hollywood for a score of long-haired girls for his medium ats. At Laguana Beach, 500 townsfolk and 100 extras from Hollywood were em- ployed in addition to a crew of 70 men who assisted Capt. William Collins in the handling of. the two huge Engfish frigates of the period. Add to this total a production staff of 40, an orchestra of 85 for musical synchronization and the technicians needed for lighting. equipment and transportation and it may be learned that the “big-time” motion picture pro- duction is quite a venture indeed. SOMETHING OF A TASK TO GO BACK TO 1840 Song styles have changed just as radically as ‘have wardrobe fashions since 1840. Richard E. Whiting and Leo Robin found that out when confronted with the task of composing original melodies for Lupe Velez’s love tale of the old Southwest, “Wolf ag.” It took considerable research into their extensive musical libraries for the | two song writers to get themselves into the tuneful swing of 90 years ago. Then there was the matter of words, no trifling item, for ways of mistreating the English language havé also varied with the passing of the vears. The Spanish love songs composed for Lupe Velez were considerably easier to create than the American folk ballads that Gary Cooper and other members of the cast are to sing, according to Whiting. The haunting melody of this type of music has not changed so ma- terially with the passage of time. “My Honey, Fare Thee Well,” a ballad written for Cooper, was one of the most difficult to compose, Whiting and Robin agree. Another hard one was and America Boardman plays John Gilbert as the beautiful loves and for whom he sacrifices Adoree as the girl who of western in Russia, ally in Moscow, have established selves as entertainers. and pr owners in the city’s famous ter.

When Susan Noonan came to Holly- wood severa] years ago she changed her name to Sue O'Neil, for film purposes. But her studio thought that name Might be confused with that of Susan's ‘@ister, Sally O'Neil, or even with Sue Caroi’s. An Irish name had to be had, ao Sue Kelly was the choice. The studio started to publicize it when another | Sue Kelly, a New York actress, length- ily wired that use of that name would be embarrassing to her.

FILM COMBINES MANY ELEMENTS SELDOM WELDED “Alibi,” all-talking underworld film, now at Loew’s Columbia, is the sev- enth motion picture that Roland West has produced during thirteen years of picture making. His first film, “Lost, Souls,” was also the first motion pic- ture with which Marcus Loew, Joseph M. Schenck, Nicholas M. Schenck and David Bernstein were associated;, the five gentlemen took up the cinema in the one film, which was purchased out-- right from them by William Fox, who recently purchased Loews, Inc. The star of “Lost Souls” was Josie Collins. Fox distributed. The picture cost just $26,000, and it was made by Mr. West in 1916 at the Erbograph Studie on West 146th street, New York City. Into his seventh picture, which is his first talking film, Mr. West has injected experiences from his own career on the stage as actor and writer. “The Crim- inal” was the name of a one-act play written and acted by Roland West in vaudeville for four years, during which time he was managed by Joseph M. Schenck, now president and chairman of the board of directors of United Artists Corporation. The manager and actor wére associ- ated in the next West picture, after “Lost Souls,”’ and Norma Talmadge was the star of this film, “De Luxe Annie,” which was that lady’s first appearance in a big Broadway theater, the Rialto. “Alibi’’ - represents fusion of the techniques of cinema and stage, ac- quired by Roland West during 28 years of association with both. As a result of his years of writing and acting for stage play patrons, Mr. West faced directly the dilemma that has confronted every director in Holly- wood—-whether to put stage players in talking pictues, or to make film actors talk. e.chose stage players, and Chester Morris, the “Chick” Williams of his underworld film, has performed so satisfactorily in “Alibi” that he has been offered five roles by as many companies. Regis Toomey, another stage player who had not previously acted in any film,~has been signed by Paramount as a result of his work in “Alibi.”” Eleanor Griffith, the principal female performer (and 4lso a Hollywood debutante in “Alibi,” without prior screen experience), has been tested by Fox, and it is possible that she and her husband, John Halliday, with whom she acted in “The Spider,” may make a talking picture together. Metro Movietone acts, the Fox Movie- tone News, the M-G-M News, short subjects and the Columbia Orchestra, under the direction of Claude Burrows, will complete the program. Garbo’s Next. “The Single Standard,” Adela Rogers’ St. John’s popular serial, has been se- lected by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer 1. Greta Garbo’s next starring picture. Johnny Mack Brown, who has the chief role in Mary Pickford’s “Coquette,” has been assigned one’of the leading parts. John Robertson will direct the picture from a scenario written by his wife, Josephine Lovett. ee we ee: Alda Makes Record. Mme.

MODERN YOUTH WARNED AGAIN IN VIVID HIT The wonder is that the world is not whirling around faster, life is moving}. so much more swiftly. The speed of it all is making youth giddy. It is not content to keep step with the new speed, it wants to move faster, and so it seeks “The Pace That Kills.” Many are the descriptions of this pace, many are the words written and but none has ap- proached the subject with the dramatic vividness of that sensational slice of modern: life, “The Pace That Kilts,” which is showing to fascinated crowds at the Strand Theater. ‘is Here is a story that moves along at a lightning rate, telling in thrilling situations the story of an innocent boy who met a girl that knew the waya of the world. Her innocent face and al- luring smile set him on, and together they seek everything that life has to offer at “The Pace That Kills.” Virginia Roye, whose sensational act- ing and beauty in “The Road to Ruin” won her immediate fame, is the girl in the case, and she reaches new heights in her acting here. “The Pace That Kills” is a picture that grips the interest of the adult and warns vividly the youth of today against the pitfalls that it has to face.

OFF THE ANTENNA By ROBERT D. HEINL - MATRON in Ohio was listening in on station WLW, at Cincin- nati, not long ago when Powel Crosley, jr., the owner of the sta- tion announced that he had a surprise due to an unexpected | visit of a distifguished naval officer to Cincinnati who would say a few | words. This interested the fair listener, but a minute later something came to her ears that surprised her so that she could hardly realize what had taken place. > “After the flattering introduction Mr. Crosley has given to me,” the naval officer was saying, “I am hoping that none ofemy old friends listening in will recall my dark past as a boy in this community. For he time in school when, to scare a little girl, I coiled a small Of course this frightened her almost i | ; ‘instance, t carter snake into her inkwell. half to death.” Whereupon the speaker proceeded to recall reminiscently his boy~ hood days, winding up with greetings to old friends within the hearing of his voice. As he left the microphone, he was told that a long-dis- tance telephone call was awaiting him—and lo, who should it be from but the matron above mentioned, a boyhood sweetheart whom he had not met for many years, but who had just heard him speak, and was the little girl into whose inkwell he had coiled the garter snake. = * . . This was the experience of Rear Admiral Walter S. Crosley,. U. 3. N., a first cousin of Powel Crosley, jr. By way of sharing the epee: of a visit of his cousin with others, Mr. Crosley had insisted that he address the radio audience. While Admiral Crosley was talking over WLW, and just after Mr. Crosley had introduced him, the latter noticed the studio manager beckoning to him to come outside. Once there, the director said to Mr. Crosley, ‘‘Do you want to hear yourself talking over the air?” “Yes,” replied Mr. Crosley, “but how am I to do that?” “Just listen to Admiral Crosley,’’ was the reply, ‘‘your voices are identical.’ | Examining the radio set which had been presented to him by Maj. Herbert H. Frost, of New York, president of the Radio Manufacturers’ Association, as a gift from the radio industry, Vice President Charles Curtis was heard to laugh and to remark: “I know where I will be about 5 o'clock this afternoon.” The significance of this was that the Vice President began life as a jockey and the afternoon of the day that he received his new set was that of the Kentucky Derby. The set which the industry presented to Mr. Curtis was of the latest type and has been installed in his — office in the Senate office building. i - * + s There is a possibility that the radio industries dinner, a time-honored institution in connection with the New York fall radio show, may be given up this year. A feature of the dinner has been a nation-wide broadcast participated in by the outstanding radio stars. Looking forward to next September, Paul B. Klugh, of Chicago, gen- eral chairman of the banquet, helieves it will be almost impossible to obtain the facilities of the broadcasting chains because of their con- tracts with commercial users. A difficulty which has been encountered in connection with the ban- quet broadcast has been the uproar of the banqueters. It has been the surprising experience of those attending the dinner to find that their friends in Washington, Denver and even San Francisco, heard what was going on in the banquet haJl better than those who were actually present in New York. é a ae ee “Keith’s will discontinue the R-K-O radio hour during the summer,” we read in Variety. The experiment of putting a complete hour of acts on the air at 11 p. m. every Tuesday was a costly one, but was regarded as worth the expenditure. “Before the resumption of the R-K-O radio programs next season, a number of changes will be made in the presentation of the special ether entertainment.” : We hope one of the changes will be an order to gag the performers who praise themselves and their acts ad nauseum, Otherwise, the R-K-O hour has been pretty good. * *¢ Apropos the rumor that the chains are going to fix a flat rate for song plugging, a well-known tenor remarked that this business is not as good as it used to be. He explained that these days, the publishers get hold of a $50 a week singer who seeks an opportunity to broadcast, and very often gets to do it for nothing, the station being satisfied to get talent free. He then proceeds to plug the publishers’ songs over the air. In the old days, according to this tenor, the royalties of singers plug- ging one publisher’s songs over the radio and in the vaudeville houses, ad > j amounted to as high as $40,000 to $50,000 a year. ef 26 ‘¢ When Capt. R. H. Marriott, appeared before the Federal Radio Com- mission recently in the case of station WRNY, the new aviation sta- tion of New York, which was applying for short-wave channels for world-wide communications, he aroused considerable curiosity on the part of the commissioners by producing what looked like it might be a woman's hair-net arrangement or skull cap or some other beauty parlor contrivance. It was bright yellow in color. As a matter of fact, the contraption was made up by Capt. Marriott to illustrate the | Heaviside layer, which illustration he subsequently made quite clear with the use of a geographical globe of the world. make a- physical demonstration of exactly how the Heaviside layer af- fected radio waves. Some are of the opinion there is a ‘wireless screen” around the earth formed by solar dust far up in the earth’s atmosphere. This is based on the theory of Sir Oliver Heaviside. The theory has suggested the idea that this stratum confines the radio waves to the surface of the earth, a sort of ever changing roof of the world, preventing them from going on into the infinite. oe oe | ® If one catches a profile view of Phil Spitalny, we did when he was broadcasting in New York recently, be almost.a double of Joe Cook, the comedian. * . + * John Stone Stone—no, that’s not a typographical error. two Stone; in his name—is one of the pioneers of radio in this country. - - * ' he appears to The British Broadcasting Corporation announces that Miss Ena Best, the “railway queen,’’ will broadcast from station 2LO in London, and adds: “Miss Best is 15 years of age and the daughter of a bogey-fitter on the London and Northeastern Railway.” All Washington listeners, of course, know what a bogey-fitter is! | Short Waves A royal order published in Madrid has approved the installation of appa- ratus which will establish direct radio- telegraph communications between Spain and the Argentine Republic. develop and radio studios. improve its two main Russian prison cells have been equipped with radio receiving sets and prisoners are able to tune in on Paris, London, Berlin and the Soviet sSta- tions. | A subsidy of almost $100,000 has been | Europe does most of its listening by granted by the Finnish government to! means of ear phones.

Will it make the new sets superior to re- ceivers equipped with other types of tubes? Can the. screen-grid tube be used in any type of set? What are its advantages over the standard type of detector and amplifier tube? Can it be used in any socket? Can it be used as a detector? These are some of the questions by prospective set buyers and radio fans. The answers are sketched by Orrin Dunlop, jr., radio editor of the New York Times, as follows, from 4 series of tests with the new tubes made by tube makers to determine the con- ditions under which they may be,oper- ated with best results. The general opinion of radio manu- facturers is that a new era will be ushered in by the use of these tubes. “In the first place, said D. F. Schmit, the Cunningham chief exgi- neer, under whose direction the tube tests were carried out, “the four-ele- ment or screen-grid tube operates ex- actly like any other vacuum tube but does it to a much greater degree. The screen-grid element is placed between the original grid to which the radio signals are conveyed from the antenna and the tube’s plate. Thus the tube is made an excellent amplifier without danger of stirring up howls. “Bésides being a very good ampli- fier, the screen-grid tube makes an excellent detector when used for faint signals, or when used for large signal inputs. It is not used with the conventional grid leak and condenser circuit, but is best as a ‘grid-bias’ de- tector. Requires Special Receiver. The screen-grid tube can not be used in the socket of any set unless the receiver is especially designed for it. lightning,” said one radio engineer, “without making any plans whatever to use its force. It is like a powerful engine, capable of immense force when the hand of a child opens the throttle, but with no work to be done. If placed in one socket of a modern set built to use the conventional radio tube, even with special precautions taken to supply it with the proper filament and plate voltages and to shield it thoroughly ina metal compartment, the power of one screen-grid tube added to the power of load the set’s detector and ruin recep- tion. In the simple Bet with one radio frequency amplifier stage it can be more easily adapted, but even then the radio amplifier should be completely reconstructed, using special coils and shielding, without which its power can not be harnessed.” May Simplify Sets. The predictions go so far as to fore- cast that the A.

MANY REQUESTS SENT IN When the conductor of a great symphony orchestra plans his programs or @ new musical revue is staged, the directors know precisely what type of music is desired by those who will patronize their performance, but when a radio concert which will be broadcast to an audience of millions of people of varying tastes is being arranged, a very different task is involved. “Probably few owners of radio sets pause to consider this,” explained Di- rector Gustave Haenschen, of the Palm- olive Orchestra. “Yet a close study of the public’s preference has enabled us to present programs which are not only typical of the spirit of jhe hour, but to please practically every one who listens to these weekly coast-to-coast broadcasts. “Those who attend symphony con- certs go to hear really classical music. Those who go to see a musical comedy want light, peppy music—but a radio audience of more than 40,000,000 people want a little of everything—not only the latest populer hits and the world’s best serious compositions, but those homely folk songs which are dear to every one. The situation reminds me of an incident told by the editor of a large magazine. Some one wrote in that.he had read the last issue from cover to cover and had enjoyed every- thing in it. ‘How cotild he?’ asked the editor. ‘If the entire issue appealed to one mén, it is lacking in variety!’ “In the magazine field that is per- hape true; but in the case of a radio broadcast the program not only must be varied but must have a universal appeal. In making up our programs our first aim is to have them reflect the spirit of romance, youth and beau- ty. But more important is to have each number of the type that will find a ready welcome in every radio home from the Atlantic to the Pacific. “That this is being accomplished by our artists is evidenced by the thou- sands of letters praising the songs of Olive Palmer, Paul Oliver and -the Palmolive Revelers which come to us every week. And the proof of the pud- ding is the fact that the great majority of requests received ask us to play and sing again numbers which have already been given during previous hours.” radically simplified sets giving a much higher plane of performance. It is pointed out that sets having many radio tubes and stages to highly amplify the signal are more than likely to cause distortion by a slight defect in some obscure part of the apparatus. In the screen-grid tube one radio am- plifier does the work of three or four ordinary tubes. “The possibilities pf this-radio tube seem to be inexhaustible,” said one radio leader. “It takes very little fore- sight to imagine that the radio sets of five or ten years hence will be instru- ments of wonder.” af RADIO PROGRAMS SUNDAY, JUNE 2.

THE LISTENER’S VIEWPOINT |i Why Three Stations Broadcasting Base- ball? 3 on WOL in a letter to The. Post from FP. L, Black of 1809 Twentieth street northwest, I wish to state that I con- sider this an unjust criticism. Personally, I consider the phono- graph récord presentations from Sta- tion WOL far superior to many of the poor programs put on by some of the chain stations. We have listened with great pleasure to WOL programs in the past and I wish to take this opportunity to state that we are immensely enjoying the episodes of Amos and Andy and sin- cerely trust that they will be con- tinued. MRS. O. B. HUNTER, 31 Oxford street, —s Chase, Md. May 12. To the Radio Editor of The Post— ball fans would like to have. you discuss in your column in Sunday Post why in I talk with is of the same opinion. Why is Washington so looney over the game that three stations tell the same story day after day? No one I have spoken to would waste time for any game ex- cept world series. We are cut off in*the middle of most interesting and instructive talks from New York station to hear what? Base- A General Defense. To the Radio Editor of The Post— | Sir: |S. Copeland. To find exactly the apartment you | want, consult the advertisements in today’s Post.

Take, for example, the Government Club, which is broadcast from-New York on the first Monday in the month, and for w ich we pay $l to become a radio member. Do we he.r the program if a ball game is on? I should say not— the only thing the programs do not cut off at any time is the disgusting ball games. I wish it would rain every day @® game was scheduled. One station could supply all who want to hear the scores and description of the games. Will you please give a reason for these three stations all going full blast on this one subject? No other city acts So crazy over its team and have better ones. A score of very disgusted listeners- in. M. #. May 14. Copeland for President. To the Radio Editor of The Post— I am a great admirer of Dr. Royal I would like to cast a vote for him, I think he is doing good work, and many of my friends as well as myself never miss him, My only trou- ble is that I am living at my summer home near the radio station in the United States Naval Academy. I have a very hard time to hear him on that account, but we all love him for his good work. I hope to live to cast a vote for him for President of the - United States some day. I would love to know him better. MRS. B. An-apolis, Md., May 12. Can Not Get WJZ Any More! To the Radio Editor of The Post— Sir: I have been reading the radio comments every Sunday and have de- cided to send in my opinion on some Subjects. °¢ I enjoy the good jazz orchestras very | much, also the other members of my family. We also enioy music such as comes from WRC and WBAL. Jolly Bill and Jane are very annoying and I do not think it neces- Sary to broadcast the theater an- nouncements as we can see them in the dinner | | the paper. We used to enjoy WJZ very much but now that the stations have been changed around, we can’t get it any- more. EVELYN ELLMORE, Leesburg, Va., Liay 20. To the Radio Editor of The Post— | Sir; In regard to the adverse comment Stands Up’for Station, | Sir: Just to be different from other “one-track minds,” may I venture forth with the suggestion that WRC is neither asléep nor dumb. Roxy’s attempt to be wity gets over better than some people’s attempt to be critical. This is not a hick town, but, it has many hick fans. Since WJSV is owned and operated by the National Farm News, it seems logical that it should broadcast the so-called “countrified" program. What a pity that some fans think all broad- casting is for the one and only ego: May 13. THE NUT. Norwegian Aces Will Scout Whales by Air Oslo, June 1 (A.P.).—Capt. Hjalmar! Riiser-Larsen and Capt.

At the Washington Radio Club meet- ing, May 25, several amusing stories were told in what was presuméd to de a “Fibber’s Contest.” It was not de- cided just which person merited first prize, a Rauland Lyric A. F. Trans- former, or the lowést price, a glass in- Sulator; so it was decided to continue the contest, and the stories will be told mostly by “o timers” at the next meeting. At the coming Atlantic Division convention, to be held in Philadelphia this June, an effort will be made by the Washington amateurs to bring the 1930 radio convention to Washington. About five members of the club signi- fied their intention to attend the Phil- adelphia convention. Eppa W. Darne, W3BWT, was elected chief operator of the club, to succeed Edward N. Dingley, W3HL, who has re- signed. Elizabeth M. Zandonini, W3CDQ, was chosen by A. R. R. L. members at the club meeting as a candidate for elec- tion as section communications mate ager of the Third Radio District in the American Radio Relay League. The va- cancy has been created by the resigna- tion of Dr. H. H. Layton. William M. Smith, W3GP (club presile | | dent), said that a chess match via amateur radio with Los Angeles, Calif., is expected to take place on July 18. He enlisted the voluntary efforts of Elizabeth M. Zandonini, W3CDQ, with Brewster H. Marshall, WSBKW, to han¢- dle the chess moves, and volunteered to ‘etp’ out in the undertaking. Thevusual code practice preceded the meeting.

NATIONAL TO HONOR THORPE AND SPRIGGS Editor and Physician to Re- ceive Degrees at University - Commencement, WOMAN WINS LAW PRIZE The honary degrees wil] be conferred by National University at its com- mencement exercises, Thursday eve- ning, June 13, in Memorial Continental Hall. The recipients will be Merle Thorpe, editor of Nation’s Business, and Dr. William Mercer Sprigg, prac- ticing physician of this city. Mr. Thorpe is recognized as one of the country’s foremost speakers and writers on business subjects. One of his editorial achievements has been a |. drive against the tendency on the part of legislatures to pass a law on every subject. He has emphasized the idea that the United States needs fewer and better laws. Mr. Thorpe has already accepted the universit?’s invitation to deliver the graduating address to the students re- ceiving degrees. Hailing from Kansas, he attended Stanford and Washington Universities. Dr. Sprigg came to this city from Petersburg in 1875. He received his earlier education in this city, then at- tended West Virginia University and won the Anatomy prize. He graduated | from old Columbian University m 1885. In 1889 he completed service as su- perintendent of Garfield Hospital, lec- tured at National University in surgery and physiology, and was twelve years lecturer in obstetrics at Georgetown University, and is:at present one of the surgeons in chief at Columbia Hospital. He is a member of the Southern Surgi- cal Society, American Therapeutic So- ciety, Medical Society of Virginia, Medi- cal Society of the District of Colum- ee eg RN tributed this week at the school, Why different varieties of State common law, superimposed by that other va- riety known as Federal common law.” As a solution he suggests codifica- tion, which he claims is being slowly accomplished against strong opposi- tion, Reinhardt School Teaches Speaking Oral System Is Employed in Trajning Offered to Children. Absolute freedom of speech and speech teaching features the course for children at Miss Reinhardt’s School. It is so conducted that from the be- ginning speech has meaning for the children exactly as it has for hearing children. All the oral systems of speech teaching are used in teaching the chil- dren to speak. They are allowed to attempt repeating the _ lip-reading words given and regardless of how much babbling results, the first mum- blings of the child are respected as spee until he or she is able to enunciate more clearly. Montessori and kindergarten mate- rial are used for sense training and number work. Children are given a thorough understanding of oral num- ber work before any written work is assigned. One feature of the course is the use of Kent domino cards. Smith to Graduate Two Washington Girls Two Washington girls will receive de- grees of A.

Seek Perfect Automobile . Despite Notable Progress Made They Are Working on ' Such Problems As Wheel Wobble, Fuel Induction System, Headlights, Brakes and Hardware. By WILLIAM ULLMAN, Although the latest automobile may Present an appearance of perfection to _” the layman, it stands as a distinct chal- - Jenge to its designer. Always he is - @oncerned vith how he can make it better. Before 1930 rolls around he .. Must have climbed higher on that end- less road he travels, on which the grade becomes steeper and more diffi- cult to scale with every forward step. His last creation, figuratively, is al- Ways chasing the motor car designer. And, as the world well knows, that last -. @reation moves with lightning speed. * Yet at no point along the route can its “@Ponsor allow it to overtake him. The laboratories have kept on hum- ~ Ming, even through the period that the public has been looking at and eulogiz- ing their latest products. What are they doing? What is there left for them to do? Many, many things. Some of them May be done this year. A lot of them will continue to be problems for mary years. To get a picture of what is going on in the laboratories it is n to break the car down into its many units. ; Front Wheels Starting Point. The front wheels suggest themselves @s an excellent starting point. What's wrong with front wheels, the average man may ask. His question is quite logical from his standpoint. He de- tects nothing wrong. The engineer, however, with his measuring devices that deal in thousandths of an inch, finds otherwise. The latter, for instance, discovers that front wheels are prone to “wan- der.” &® malady technically labeled “tramp.” They may be infected with the germ of “wobble.” Sometimes, in spite of all the engineer does to prevent it, they shimmy. That is why the engineer is sticking élose to the laboratory these days, try- ing to isolate the germ of each of these forms of disorderly wheel conduct. Once isolated, he will devise a cure. Another vagary of front wheels that is irrfttating to the designer and more eéstly to the car owner than he realizes is their susceptibility to getting out of line. That makes for harder steering and it runs up tire costs. Each year, wheels are improved in respect to the tightness of their moorings. The cur- Pent models have wheels that are fairly well behaved ih this respect. They are not yet perfect, however, and the engi- meer is satisfied with nothing less than One thing that complicates the Then, again, they are subject to ithe av front-wheel problem is higher speeds. Cars must have higher speeds con- stantly and yet the faster their wheels turn, the more likely the latter are to do tricks with their normal axis of travel. That is why wheels continue to ¢dccupy many moments of the designer's time. | Engines Hard to Start. There is another thing that keeps the engineer working overtime. The absence of year-’round warmth in most States of the Union makes engines hard to ¢tart too frequently. It ts a handi- cap t6 a joyous motoring experience that the engineer must continually try to overcome, The fuel induction system of the engine comes under close scrutiny in this connection. The “cold room” staff in the laboratory is ever active in its quest of some way to make cold gaso- line function somewhat like a warm fuel. It is no easy task but one at which considerable progress has been made. Any one who still needs convincing that this year will continue to be an active one for the technical staff should spend a few minutes listening to a headlighting wizard describe his woes. Even the most optimistic of the geniuses operating in this particular scientific sphere have just about con- cluded that any good headlamp of the design now generally used is going to giare under certain conditions. The headlight problem solution is taking two courses. Some are trying to reduce the number of conditions under which present headlamps will glare. Others are trying to find a new design that will not glare under any conditions. Neither group ts very like- ly to work itself out a job quickly. Then, there are brakes. Here is a car feature about which the motorist might think the engineer has done a ect job. As a matter of cold fact, hasn't. And he is among the first to admit the fact. “Small Clearance for Brakes. For one thing, four-wheel brakes to be operated with the force of the kick } person imparts to. the al, must ‘have small clearance. A clearance would require “more | force than'the average man or woman could bring to bear. The small-aper- ture between lining and drum pre- sents a problem—several of them in fact. One of the keenest is that when the lining swells for any reason, or the drum expands from heat, there is a very fine chance for the two to meet. That means dragging. These illustrations might seem to suggest that the latest automobile is rather deficient. Far from it. simply mean that the e things to think about and that every time he improves his creation he dis- covers still further room for improve- ment.

He has done much to improve it in the new cars with those kick type ventilators. He has improved it still more when he makes these ventilators work in conjunction with a vent at the bottom of the windshield. Another thing that has been done is the cutting of slivers out of tha tops of the front window glass to admit fresh air. But in spite of these and other ges- tures the engineer does not regard him- self as having solved his ated a furore by asking his confreres this question: “Why should it be necessary to slam a car door so hard in order to be sure that it closes? This same engineer further proves his eye for detail when he says: “The material of which the floor cov- ering of the driver’s compartment is made should receive further attention.” Little things, indeed.

FORESTER EXPLAINS —- eee ce tae cae A A OR OL LOLOL A LL LLL LL LLL LL P puIcK'S MARQUETTE | [PRESENTING TWo MODELS IN NEW MARQUETTE LINE ae eae me ma ] MOTOR CAR REPAIRS Motoring With Mary ‘WAKES APPEARANCE ee Engine an L-Head Six, With Car’s Wheelbase 114 Inches. ee BASE PRICE SET AT $965 Powered by a eix-cylinder, L-head motor and incorporating numerous noteworthy mechanical refinements, the Marquette, a new car produced by the Buick division of General Motors, now takes its place in the automotive pro- cession. } The Marquette is being manufac- tured in six models, with the price range set at from $965 to 61,035. The body types include a two-door sedan, four-door sedan, business coupe, sport coupe, roadster and touring car. According to the specifications, the engine of the Marquette has a bore of 3% inches and a stroke of 4% inches, developing a rated horsepower of 23.44 and a maximum brake horsepower of 67.5. Light cast-iron pistons are used. The crankcase and cylinder block are cast integral. Other interesting mechanical features as revealed in the specifications include a tapered chassis frame, thermostatical- ly controlled water cooling system, forced lubricaiton to main connecting rod and camshaft bearings and to the timing chain, and rubber mounting for the engine. Special heat-treated steel is said to be used for the crankshaft, Which is counterweighted to eliminate vibration. The shaft has four main bearings. There is full crankcase ventilation to prevent oil dilution. The carburetor is fed gasoline through a pump. Anair cleaner is provided. Transmission is of the conventional three speeds forward and one reverse type, with gears of drop-forged chrome steel. The clutch is of the single-plate type. The steering gear of the new car is of the worm and nut type, fully ad- justable for wear. A semi-floating rear axle is being used. The braking system is of the four- wheel internal expanding ‘“Duo-Servo” type and is protected against foreign substances. Riding comfort is achieved by the use of long, semielliptic springs front and rear, by hydraulic shock absorbers and by a generous 114-inch wheelbase. Bodies are by Fisher, are distinctive in appearance and include numerous modern accessories. All exterior hard- ware is chromium plated. Doors are wide and fenders are full crown and of one-piece construction. A new type of tilted windshield has been fitted which, it is said, has un-/ usual nonglare properties. Another in- teresting item is the use of an uphol- stery cloth impregnated with a rubber solution, said to be exceedingly durable and less susceptible to damage by rain or moisture. Closed-car front seats are adjustable, All models are fitted with scuff plates ‘ at the doors; running boards are bound on all four sides; pedal openings are inclosed, and tire rims are panited to blend with the general color motif. Other details of the car are a vacuum windshield wiper, combination stop and tail light, coincidental switch and car lock, and indirectly lighted instrument board equipped with a full quota of gauges and operating devices. Numbers Adopted For Oil Viscosity , Companies Can Now Make Their Product Without Changing Name. Recognizing that the use of proper engine lubricant is essential in pro- longing motor car life, and realizing that this fact is understood by owners and oil companies alike, the Society of Automotive Engineers has adopted a system of crankcase lubricating oil viscosity numbers. This enables oil companies to mark their oils without loss of brand name, advertising prestige or trade-mark good will. During the last eighteen months 99 refiners and oil companies in the D:.ited States and.Canada have advised the society that they are using these numbers in conjunction with their brand names as an additional means of designing the viscosity of the oils supplied in their containers. PERFECT AUTOMOBILE STILL BEING SOUGHT CONTINUED FROM PAGE 8. transmuting these once brittle and none-too-durable parts into units of durability and beauty. The car owner, actually, would be very hard put to find anything about them worthy of criticism. The engineer, on his part, concedes progress with respect to the wear- ability, strength, and beauty of the lit- tle levers and cranks. For Hardwearless Hardware. He has no quarrel with them on any of these scores. He turns unbeliever only when some one tells him that they have been scientifically located. How about that blue spot on his elbow where he bumped a window lifter try- ing to locate himself in the driver's seat? wrist? And how, further, about that rip in the pocket of his coat? With hig gauges he is trymg to find out. When he does, the hardware will wear less hard on elbows, wrists, knees. Describe an automobile seat as “form-fitting” to some engineers and _ they'll ask “Whose form?” It is most disconcerting, especially after one has sat in about 30 different makes of car and been favorably impressed with the way the seats fit the figure. Another thing about seats as engineer sees them is that he does not believe full advantage has been teken of their potentialities for givy- ing comfort. He always is on the lookout for a better way of padding them, an improved way of putting springs in them, of attaching the up- holstery or something of that char- acter. ‘ Even the instrument board is no+ satisfactory to some engineers. How they can make it retain its original luster with a bunch of keys swinging, pendulum-like, across it when the car is in motion is one little problem. How to Hght it better is still another. Where to place the respective gauges In the order of their relative impor- tance to the driver—they also are thinking of that. What form of gauge face is best? What color is easiest to read under day and artificial light? To these and other questions, the lab- oratory is trying to find the answer. One might go on and name still otber things that the designer is go- ing to put under the stroboscope and others of his testing devices during the coming year. The list, however, already is long enough to indicate that 1930 by no means will be a year of idleness for him.

Washington followers of the fortunes of the motor speedway drivers were lis race in which several of the s0- called outlaws who invaded the local racing field at the Baltimore-Washing- ton Speedway a few years ago covered themselves with glory. Ray Keech who, with the exception of Sir Henry Segrave, has driven faster than any man on earth, came off the winner, besting all the veterans of big- time racing. Local followers of the sport recalled his appearance at Laurel and at the same time remembered the smiling Celt who can be counted on io give a consistent performance.

Russell Snowberger and Frank Farmer were two other of the How about that scratch on his! the | dirt-track group who were graduated into the faster speedway fraternity at Laurel. Engines of the = Those who think car émgines of the present sizes are sufficiently powerful for all time to come are rot in step with engineering thought in the auto- motive industry. Twelve and sixteen cylinder engines, as against the present sixes and eights, are regarded by whe latter group as certain to be developed. _ One prominent leader of engineering thought, visualizing the next few years, goes beyond the average prophet and declares that the time will come when only eight, twelve and sixteen cylinder cars will sell for more than $1,000. What a merry little battle would prevail in the lower price class shoud this pre- diction come true! In looking forward to this greater power development, the engineer's thought is not so limited as that of the average layman. In spite of all the latter has read about the creation of superhighways, two-decked streets ‘and the like, he still is inclined to /measure the future automobile by the | present. facilities afforded for auto- mobile use. Why have more power than can be used? he wants to know, thinking in terms of even the best of present-day roads. That is the juncture at which he and the engineer part company. The latter envisions as a parallel develop- ment, streets and highways made to order for motor cars driven by engines of twelve and sixteen cylinders. The whole history of motordom sus- tains the judgment of the expert. The average man can see the fact merely by looking backward to the day of 'dirt road.

Color Is Complicating. Color undoubtedly is a big factor in selling cars in such great quanity, but there are times when dealers must long for “the good old days” when black was standard and there was no off-standard. Right at the moment many a dealer is one or more potential patrons who want something else. An instance is provided in the case of the retailer who had roadsters of eight different shades in stock, none (of which was pleasing to the debuante who wanted to buy a special model. To make the anecdote complete she finally took the one which, at first, she like least of all. And the choice turned out to be a happy one. It Was Merely Mislaid The casualness with whieh motorists handle their automobiles and their /equivalent value in actual cash always ‘has been a subject of amazement. |Here’s a new anecdote on the subject: A motorist just acquired a car that cost $4,500. Before he had put 200 miles on the speedometer, he was taken ill. Two weeks later, recovered, he called the garage where the car cus- tomarily was stored and asked them to deliver it. They could not comply with the order because the car was not ther@. Later, the owner recalled that two days before he became ill, he had taken the car to a service station for a minor adjustment. Mislaying a $4,500 automobile! Different Perspective. Perspective makes all the difference in the world. An engineer and a lay- man friend recently dropped into a showroom to see a brand new line of cars, “Pretty, isn’t it?’’ said the latter. “Yeah. JI] understand that crankcase casting is a one-piece proposition,” was the engineer's reply. | Hiding Idea Rampant | It is not. only mechanical parts that are being hidden in the latest automo- tive designs. The idea has spread to ‘the vanity, the ash trays, the writing |pads and the cigar lighters on the in- |terior of the cars. All these essentials to a happy motoring career are there, | but they are out of the way and incon- spicuous. The neat living room sug- gested the change. ' Even Higher in Future. Car owners who are impressed with figures dealing with engine compression ratios have a surprise in store for them should the oil-burning engine reach the motor car type. Compression ratios of '10 to I and 12 to 1 are commonplace in ithis type of motor plant. (Copyright, 1929.)

It Used Car Second Cars, The “second car” is something that many a family is thinking about these ‘days when it becomes necessary that ithe whole group be motorized. I have an idea to advance on the subject that several of my, friends have tried and found remarkably successful, Broadly, it may be summed up as “Raid the used-car market.” The term “raid” seems to be used advisedly, for some of the bargains of- fered are such that one feels he actual- ly is “raiding” the place. It would seem inevitable that, with So many good-looking new cars on the market, there must have been some mighty handsome older models in ex- cellent condition traded in on- them. That is the case, and the way to see it to the fullest advantage is to take a tour along the used-car row. Woman, with her well-known shop- ping instinct, should not miss this splendid opportunity. My first journey, which was a revela- tion, was made with one of my subur- ban neighbors, who wanted a car, but who did not have enough money to buy a new model of the make she desired. She was paying 60 cents bus fare for her three children’s transportation to school each day, and both herself and the youngsters were putting up with the inconvenience of such inflexible transportation. The husband was not being selfish about the family’s one car. He simply had to have it in his business. pre is often well to dig a shallow pit for the fire. Above all, the wise camper knows how to put out his fire, and makes cef- tain it is completely extinguished be- fore he leaves. Pour water on the embers and stir them to make sure no spark can rise. Then for additional safety. toss on a few shovelfuls of dirt. Every Revolation of the Engine Grinds Oat Wisdom for the Woman Who Drives a Car, One of Them Has Discovered. By MARY JANE MOORE We talked about the situation from time to time and finally we decided to | go used car shopping. The trip was one surprise after an- | other. The wide variety of cars we in- spected included many that were good looking, in excellent mechanical condi- tion, and amazingly low in price. The only way I can explain the “used car problem” is that people with too little money to buy a new car do not know what a fine automobile the money they do have will buy in the used car mar- ket. Of the various bargains ve: looked at, our purchase turned up in a 3-year- old coach model of a company that al- ways has turned out good-looking cars. Originally the car delivered for around $1,450. My neighbor paid 8475 for it, and it had had less than 20,000 miles of use—and good use, too. At one fell swoop, a really serious transportation problem was solved. I doubt that I ever saw $475 applied to better effect. The 60 cents a day that once went for the children’s transpor- tation now more than provides fuel and maintenance for the car in which the mother takes them to and from school, and certainly the flexibility it brings into the family’s movements is quite as wonderful as they think. This incident started a big “used car, second car” fashion in our suburb and more families have been completely and inexpensively motorized than are not enjoying the benefits of two-car trans- portation. One family, going further than the rest, used the process to buy two cars right off the reel. They had been saving their money to get one new car, but with the whole neighborhood suddenly going “two-car minded,” they got one new car for family use, and one used car for the husband to use during the day. No one can come into our small suburb and tell us that maintaining two cars is too heavy a drain finan- clally. We have tried it and we know the facts where he would be dealing in fancies. It costs money, to be sure, but it is money that we all know is wisely spent. : (Copyright, 1929.) MUCH SPECIALIZED Thousands of Establishments Now Have to Do With Maintenance. ‘ CHAIN SHOPS PLANNED In the various forms of specialized service availble to motor car owners, ‘it lg a far cry back to the period of the first automobiles, it is pointed out by maintenance authorities. Motordom began, of course, entirely without service save that provided by the village blacksmith or machine shop —and it was very crude at best. Grad- ually, service stations came tnto being. In these, with limited equipment, me chanical-minded men azd youths set about solving the mystery of the motor car, from repairing tires to reboring cylinder blocks. A jack-of-all-trades proposition it was then and the effect led, inevitably, to specialization. This specialization hag resulted today ‘'n tens of thousands of establishments c2aling with motor car maintenance and r>pair. There are shops that do nothing but battery work, brake work, top re- pairing, upholstering, repainting, lubrie- cation, washing, engine repairing, ig- nition repairing, radiator work, and numerous other specialties. In larger establishments, while these various spe- claities are housed under one roof, they are separate departments, especially equipped and manned. In recent months, a new specialty has come into being. Behind it are two of the largest body builderg in the world. Their plan contemplates the es- tablishment of a Nation-wide chain of shops in which body work may be done on the same systematized, specialized basis that maintenance and repair work on other parts of the car ig done, As another important milestone in the establishment of a more effective service to motor car owners, the step is worthy of attention, in the opinion of all observers. ee Imagine flashing from every respect. can ride in perfect comfort. cramped in this car. ing design. reach the engine.

NS IE ee ct £5 GERMAN AIRPORT CFAVING COMMERC Most Are Controlled by Muni- cipalities Owned and Operating Them. ONLY ONE IN CITY CENTER Germany, recognized as one of the 'leading exponents of air transportation, 'has 65 airports or traffic landing places /controlled largely by the municipalities ‘owning and operating them. The ma- jority of the airports, especially those ,served by the Deutsche Luft Hansa, have become associated in an advisory |Organization known as the Association |of German Airports. | According to a Department of Com- merce survey of German air develop- ment, the federal traffic ministry has established an Official handbook on airports, known as the “Flughandbuch fuer das Deutsche Reich.” This publi- ‘cation describes each airport and land- ‘ing place, both by maps and by aerial |photography, and is supplemented by detailed information as to the admin- ‘istration of airports, the traffic com- ‘panties using the airport, the distin- | guishing signs, night illumination, kind ‘of ground surface, dimensions of the ‘landing fields, size of buildings, hangars land repair shops, fuel capacity of con- itainers, means of transportation to cities, location of first-aid stations, ,customs, post and passport control, |radio equipment, cable office, connec- itions to. the cities, distamce and | accessibility. It is pointed out that nearly all Ger- /'man airports are located at some dis- |tance from the center of the city, with | the exception of the Tempelhof Airport jin Berlin, situated only a twelve-min- |ute bus ride from the heart of the city. Fast connecting service to and from the airports is provided by busea operated by Luft Hansa. Regulations are being drawn up as to the heights of buildings adjoining airports, according to which the heights of adjacent buildings must be limited so as to permit airplanes to take off and climb at the ratio of 1 In 15 from any point on the field. Thus, a build- ing 60 feet in height must be at least 300 yards away from the boundary of the airport. The Deutsche Luft Hansa requests that the height restriction be amended so that the heights of structures in the vicinity of airports would permit @ plane to rise at an angle of 1 in 20 from the border of the fleld, to a height of 25 meters, and that this height re- striction be continued so as to apply 'to all structures within a radius of |\two kilometers from each border of ithe fiel@.

Rethers said. As a result of this demand, the quartermaster technical committee re- cently had twenty trench coats of a design suggested by various arms of the service manufactured, and sent to the various boards for practical field tests. Experiments are being made with storm flags to determine whether or not. the life of these flags can be lengthened Sy the use of balloon cloth on the fly end. These tests are being conducted in the Philippine and Pan- ama departments. Gen. Rethers further stated that marked improvements have been made in the Army tents. Experts at the Jef- fersonville, Ind., quartermaster depot have developed, it is said, a tent that is more adapted to the needs of the Army and yet is more easily manufac- tured. ' ‘The quartermaster general, however, is not ready at this time to give out the details of the new type of tent. The Jeffersonville depot is making some models that will be shipped to Wash- ington soon for examination by the quartermaster technical committee.

Realization that officers need a lighter shirt than the flannel ones that they mow wear has resulted in the Army making various tests of lighter mate- _Yials.

No matter what car you drive, you owe a lot to Chrysler —for Chrysler influence on other motor cars has been Five years ago Walter P. Chrysler produced the first car to bear his name. That was the beginning of Chrysler leadership—a dominant position that has never been relinquished. It is a provable fact that most of the important automo- bile betterments of the last five years trace their roots to Chrysler, for Chrysler has been the industry’s fountain- head of scientific advancement in engineering.

Emulation is a nice compliment to Chrysler leadership, of course. But the mere copying of features cannot equal the complete Chrysler results. To you who are about to choose a new car, a natural question arises: Why not enjoy a Chrysler itself, so long as Chrysler smartness, comfort, performance and quality are the goals to which other cars are striving?

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, JUNE 2. )) THE RETURN OF OLD KING BRADY Revived by MERLE W. HERSEY. (Copyright protected. Reproduction tn whole or in part prohibited.) THE MATTER OF MARSHAL MUNDY. CHAPTER ONE. Answering the Kansas Call. The Bradys had just finished their political clean-up in Sunflower City, Ney., and were planning on returning to their Washington Square home for | a little rest after their excitement in the Far West. But such is the fame of Old King Brady that his travels and in- terests are observed by many people— especially those who are in need of just such sure assistance as he affords. Spanish Licks, Kans., was in a sad astate—for the marshal had mysterious- ly disappeared and foul play was suspected. Mayor Scrapps, knowing that the Bradys were in Sunflower City, tele- raphed to Old King Brady to stop in| oe : : he met on the train if he knew Marshal | Kansas and see if he could find the missing Marsha! Mundy. “It’s a rough country there,” said Old cussing the way to get to Spanish Licks. “Better go to the station and see if there is a railroad station there, or where the nearest stop is.” Harry immediately set forth and after interviewing the station agent found that the nearest station was Hartland and that there was ho stage running down to Spanish Licks—they have to trust to luck to hire horses. There had been so many holdups on the road that no stage driver would undertake the trip any longer. So it was that the Bradys once more etarted on a vague call with 6&0 little to work on that any other detectives would not have bothered with it. Old King Brady wired the mayor that they were coming and that if he had any- thing to say to wire them at Hartland. Sure enough, they. found a dispatch stating that a guide would meet them, | with horses, and would conduct them down the long trail of over a hundred Diiles into the Arkansas River country. The Bradys reached Hartland late in the evening. As they left the station a cowboy came hurrying up to them. He glanced at the long blue coat with its brass buttons, the broad brimmed white felt hat, and unhesitatingly ap- proached. “Mr. Brady?” he asked. “That is my name. Are you the guide that was to meet us?” answered Old King Brady. “Yes. My name !s Frank Clegg. Mr. Scrapps sent me over with horses,” the cowboy replied. “I know every inch of this country as I have lived here since the days of the old Santa Fe trail.” “Good! You are the kind of man we want to meet. This is my partner, Young King Brady. He likes to be called Harry, and I suppose you like to be called Frank.” After some further.conversation, in which Old King Brady derived some information which he stored up for fu- ture use, they decided to waste no time in starting for Spanish Licks. As they waited for Frank to bring the horses to the station the Bradys noticed a young man coming toward them. WORK ON BRIDGE ; Mr. Work has prepared a booklet giving detailed information concern- ing the correct way to play Progres- sive Auction Bridge. This booklet will be sent to all readers without charge. Mr. Work will also answer without charge any Bridge ques- tions. Requests must be accom- panied by an addressed, stamped, return envelope and addressed to Mr. Milton C. Work, care of The Washington Post. Rit I am giving today a hand which I re- cently saw played in a game of Con- tract; but if it had been Auction, the play would have been identical because the final declaration would have been Spades just the same.- The cards were ®& distribuetd as follows: 4 I-45 > pda 9 ok) | opi The Contract bidding was: South two Gpades, West pass, North three Spades, Bast pass, South four Spades. The Auction bidding would have been: South one Spade, West pass, North pass, East two Hearts, South two Spades. In the Contract bidding South had a moderately close choice for his original bid between one Spade and two Spades. However, six Spades headed by the Ace ean be expected to take four tricks, and he could count upon at least two Dia- mond tricks; so that the six tricks an- mounced by a two-bid were there, plus the possibility of another Diamond and the value of the moderately high Clubs and Hearts. If North had held three Spades, the question of whether he should bid three or four Spades over his partner’s two would have been quite close: but with only two Spades it was clearly a one- jump only. Even when the original bid is two, it is possible that the bidder has started with a four-card sult. There is little else to say about the bidding. East has sufficient strength at Auction to bid two hearts, but had not nearly sufficient strength to bid the four that would have been necessary to name his Hearts at Contract. Regardiess of whether East bid Hearts or not, West's natura] opening against a Spade contract would be the Ace of | Hearts, on which dummy would play the Deuce and closed hand the Jack. | When I saw the hand played that is what happened; and West, then re- alizing the danger incident to a contin- uation of the Hearts, switched to Clubs. leading through dummy’s strength. The Deciarer passed the Club up to closed hand’s Queen-Ten, hoping that the lead had been from the King. East of course took the trick with the King, and subsequently East made one trump and the Ace of Diamonds, so the adversaries Saved the game. The only comment made at its conclusion came from the Declarer, who blamed his hard luck for not making game with so strong a He appreciated that he :nust lose One trump and the two red Aces, but he thought that luck had been un- kind to him in nos placing the King of Clubs in the West hand so as to make it easy for him to win his ten tricks. It seemed to me that the Declarer was most ungallant in attempting to cast the blame upon Dame Fortune; he really should have thanked her @ for that. initial Heart lead. If it had been @ Club, he could not ve gone a game against correct defense: but after ——————_——————E NASH “Conveniently Located on 14th Street” 1529 14th St. N.W. nie ——_ | “My name is Dick Halsted,” he said by way of greeting. “I want to get © a place by the name of Spanish Licks, | and the agent tells me there is no | stage. I am going over there to look }up my uncle, James Mundy, who has | been marshal there for several years.” “Well,” said Old King Brady, ‘as our business happens to be the same, sup- | pose we travel together. Get over to }the hotel and see if you can hire a ‘horse. We will wait for you here.” | Dick Halsted adopted this suggestion. “I have had my eye on him for some etme.” said Old King Brady. “I expect- ed to run into him here.” “But why? What do you know about 'him?’ queried Harry. “T overheard him asking a man whom 'Mundy—that’s all.” 3 | Frank Clegg and Dick Halsted came ten minutes later they all rode out of Hartland without having spoken to any one in the place. Old King Brady had his doubts about young Halsted. In fact, he directed Harry to keep as close to the young (man as he could and to pump him for | would | all he was worth. He intended to do the same with Frank Clegg. Clegg was not dropping hints, and Old King Brady soon was convinced that he had none to drop. So he sud- denly shifted to the marshal’s disap- pearance. “I suppose you know as much about Jim Mundy as any man in Span- ish Licks. What do you think of his disappearance?” I think he was tracted—so thar.” “What do you mean?” King Brady, who was puzzied. Island and they never come back,” the guide explained... “It's like this. : Jim Mundy is a brave man. He straightened out our town like you never saw. He chased all the dive-keepers out of the Place and made the boys quit carrying guns when they come to town. That's the sort of fellow he was. A better man never stepped in two shoes.” Old King Brady went about the busi- ness of getting the story of Marshal Mundy from the old man. To repeat the conversation in detail would be tedious, but the story ran like this: At a certain point on one of the forks of the Arkansas River was 4 place where an old channel had cut its way through the prairie. At each end of this, which was semicircular and about 5 miles long, there had been washed down soil until a barrier had risen, pre- venting the water from entering the old channel and thus forming a new one. The land in between was known as Deadman’s Island and was covered by a heavy growth of cottonwood trees. Many traditions centered in this old island, and according to Frang Clegg, the ghosts of dead miners still haunted ~ the initis] lead of the Ace of Hearte, Declarer had the game cinched if he had sized the situation and planned 4 little. At trick 2, the Declarer could not accurately place the adverse King of Clubs. West might have held it and led through dummy’s strength with the in- tent of deceiving the Declarer and in- ducing him to play dummy’s Ace; but West's lead of the Ace of Hearts showed that the King of Hearts was held by East (West would have led the King from Ace-King and one or more other). Declarer, with Queen-Ten of Hearts in Dummy, had a much better chance for game by establishing a Heart and get- ting a Club discard than by assuming that the Club lead was made from the King. To trick 2 he should have played the Ace of Clubs from dummy and then should have led the Hearts from that hand. If East fail to cover, South could discard his los- ing Club. If East covered, South would ruff, lead his Ace of Spades and then a trick with the King in dummy, and then lead his good Heart from dummy and get his Club discard on it. In this hand Declarer could have made game in that way regardless of how East played; and while of course there might have been other distributions of the adverse cards which would upset the play, any such distribution was high- ly improbable. West might have had the singleton Ace of Hearts or the Ace- | King without any small Hearts, but 'in the former case East would have held | nine Hearts, and in the latter eight. A| | Declarer should not allow the possi- bility of such abnormal distributions to disturb his play. He should make his plan upon the basis of the normal division of the adverse cards, and doing so he can be sure that he will be right in the vast majority of all hands.

On stormy nights a ghostly band galloped across the prairie and woe betide any unlucky cowboy who happened to encounter them, for he would be seized with an uncontrollable attracfion to the deadly island. on the island nothing was ever heard of him again. While Old King Brady was drawing out this story from Frank Clegg, Harry was working Dick Halsted as best he could. He found that the young man was a graduate of the Colorado Schoo! of Mines, and his intention was to con- tinue on to Arizona after seeing his uncle. Having reached this point Harry know that Marshal Mundy disappeared and has not been seen since?” | “What?” exclaimed Halsted. “Surely ‘that can't be so.

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY. JUNE 2, 1929. A certain Los Angeles banker wanted a car with a quicker pick-up than any he had tried—and one that had unusually good brakes.. A Reo Flying Cloud was demonstrated to him. It was taken from a standing start, through first, second, and 4 ? third, to sixty miles an hour, and then to a dead stop—in one city block.

Three reasons why the Reo is rated for all-round performance and mechanical depend- ability with the highest priced cars—and why it outranks them all for long life. Now you can have a Reo Flying Cloud at a lower price than ever before. REO MOTOR CAR COMPANY - + LANSING, MICHIGAN * Reo's remarkable acceleration owes much to the fact that Reo’s pistons and connecting rods weigh only 3 4/10 lbs. a set! And to the further fact that Reo, in addition to the usual machining of cylinders, and of crankpin and main bearing journals, hones these parts to a glass-smooth finish. Hence: less weight to move, less friction to overcome, and higher jee attained in less ume. \ Reo Flying Clouds are priced at the factory as follows: 5-Passenger Sedans $1395, Sport $1495: Master $1745, Sport $1870; Car of the Month $1970. 2-Passenger Coupe $1375, Sport $1475. 2-4-Pas- senger Coupe $1395, Sport $1495: Master $1625, Sport $1750. 5-Passenger Brougham, Master $1595, Sport $1720. 4-Passenger Victoria, Master $1695, Sport $1820.

Suddenly an ftdea came into my head: “Let's go up in an airplane.” We didn’t know how to get to Hoover, Field so I called up my father. And he consented to take us over and bring us back. On arriving at Hoover Field we watched a plane make a landing. It was absolutely perfect. I was in high hopes ours was going to be that way. And it was! We bought our tickets. We rode im a four-passenzger open cockpit plane. Our pilot was a very good aviator, I thought. He went up, flew and landed with perfect ease. Our trip, through the air, took us, first, over Arlington. We could very easily see the amphitheater, which was very beautiful, Next we flew over the Potomac River to Washington. We circled the Washington Monument, Lincoln Memorial, Capitol, and other everything looked like toys. When the ride was over we all wished it could have been twice as long.

The Skating Party The girls were going to have a skat- inc party, and wanted every girl to come. It was going to be on Saturday afternoon. And all the girls hopsd that the ice on the pond would be thick enough for skating. On Satur- Gay morning each girl was up bright and early. That afternoon at 1 o'clock they were to meet at Betty’s house. Bevery girl was there. When they got to the pond the ice was thick enough to hold a giant.

The Hungry Boy Once a little boy was out in the snow and he was cold and hungry. He was out sellmmg papers, Nobody had bought one that day. So he went out to a store and there he saw a man and he asked him to by a paper. But the man said the papers were too high. So the little boy wanted to sell a paper so he said that the man could have one for 1 cent. Then the man saw that he was a kind- hearted little boy so he bought one and paid him 3 cents for it. The man and the boy went in the store and bought some candy and cakes. Then the man gave hima job. The boy went down and got his mother, but his father was dead. The boy grew to be a big man and they became rich. But the boy never forgot his friend the man. MARGUERITE E. JENKINS (age 9). 1103 D street northwest.

MARGORY JEAN MATTINGLY, (age 614). ana-tThe Obivia = pew web Eth ght « wad ent oe v All in a Days Work Jims belonged to the Maison’s, Tip belonted to the Brown's, Jiggs was the Smith's dog, and Pete was the dog who went visiting, and tramping, with no human being owning him. He was free to roam where he would. He was one of nature's creatures, happy, self-relying and shaggy, and, altogether, a real fel- low Each day these dogs met at their clubhouse under the Wiggins house which has (long since last summer) been unoccupied. Today was a busy day for them, because the ladies had been | invited and the banquet of the year was | to be held. Mr. Jims brought Miss Flumpy, Mr. Jiggs brought Sally Sue Airdale, and Tip brought Miss Collier, a school teacher in the Dogville High School, who taught the children their bones. The banquet was over, Tip was call- ed upon to make the after-dinner speech. He began: “Fellow citizens, I am a dog of the world, long experienced in the ways of life. I have run across beggars, thieves, robbers, crooks, murderers and | houses in my travels. Now I am, dad upon to give a talk, or speech unexpectedly. My talk will be on bones! “Bones, as a whole, are queer speci- mens, often found in nature’s depths. There are many patents of bones, the best being the Average Bones, given out by our secret service men, to the needy. Our charity organizations give one bone away to each person ap- plying, who is ill or hungry. We gave away twenty bones yesterday, five of which went to a little widow with six children to support and keep in cloth- ing, 50 yOu see ‘tis a needy cause. I feel, ladies and gentlemen of dog land, that I have talked enough, 80 I will take my seat, hoping every one will do- nate to the poorhouse.” Later in the morning’ the club meet- ing adjourned and Tip saw Miss Col- lier safely home, bid farewell and turned down the alley. | He came face to face with one of his friends, Charley Brown, only 3 years and 4 days old. The red headed young- ster patted Tip on the head, in his clumsy little way, not knowing the poor dog felt the shock of the patting from little fat hands. Charley suggested to Tip, in his baby language, that the two of them play, Tip and Charles went to a back yard and romped and chased each other for teri minutes. It was a peculiar sight to behold, to see Tip being held in a tight grasp (but friend- ly) by a 3-year-old. Suddenly Charles’ grasp logsened on the dog’s ear, an arrow whizzed through the air, and hit Charley on the fore- head, near the temple. Jameg Tohen had been in the woods shooting arrows, and he had tried to aim for a tree, but his arrow slipped. Tip looked at his pale faced comrade, and knowing its parents were away, he decided to be- ceme a guardian. He went to the boy. and gently drew the arrow, stained with blood from his forehead. Then he went into the next yard and tore from the clothes line, a napkin, just hung out to dry. He placed it awkwardly over Charley’s gash, then making sure his comrade was comfortable, he dashed down the road to the nearby doctor. He tried his best to reach the bell, but alas! The knocker was too high! Thimk- ing for a minute, then realizing his re- sponsibility, he went to the screen, and scratched. Soon the doctor came to the door to sce what was the commo- tion. “What’s the matter, stranger?” he called cheerfully. Tip yipped, turned, went to the steps turned again, and in this manner leq the doctor to Charles | the 4th. When the small boy woke up from the faint he was surprised to feel his head loaded with bandages, a dog lick- | ing his pale cheeks and a doctor bend- | ing anxiously over him. “It’s all right, | big boy,” called the doctor, “This dog pal of yours saved a useful life.” “Woof —bow!” barked Tip wagging his tail frantically. The next day at the Dog Town Club, Tip was awarded a hero’s medal with great ceremonies by the sheriff of Dog- ville and the State Commissioner of Dogville gave him a heroic speech. He was given a banquet and all ladies were invited. After it was over, Miss Collier turned to him and said, “Tip, why do you take such a fancy to Charley?” Tip thought a minute, and then looked at her with honest dog eyes, “I like Charley, because he ig kind to me and can understand me. He lets me roam and doesn’t make a house 4 ey ; ’ | | tN { a. « . tT Mh | i } WT Th f fi! i | " (i %% + Bias! wy _ Daa cM mW }} | tiff In The Editor’s Letter Box Dear Editor: I am sending in a story called “The Rescue,” which I hope the waste basket will not get.

May 1?” was the first Charlie hailed his mother with Mrs. Thomas 100kKed at Charile thoughtfully. Then she said, “It all de- pends upon the kind of boys who are Starting this clud, Charlie. Who are the, “ie It was then that Charlie remembered that the boys who were starting this club were the “roughnecks.”’ It “Um, thing well, um, they—well—their names are Lein Smith, Tony Morton and— um-—Pob Carter.’ “Oh, I see. Well, young man, do you Know those boys have caused a pretty lot of trouble in this neighbor- hood, and if I ever hear of you even attempting to go with them again I shali tell your father. Your father has had enough trouble with those boys in the inst few years to last him a life- time.’ “But. Mom,” “There will said his mother decidedly. Charlie didn’t say anything else, but in his mind he declared he would join that club. So it happened that Charlie went secretly every Saturday at 2 o'clock vo the club. The “clubhouse,” as they calied it, was nothing but an old shack built in the woods. It was only one block away from Charlie's house; so he could slip away very easily and recurn without anybody knowing it One Saturday afternoon Mrs. Thomas pul little 3-year-old Betty Thomas on the: porch and told Charlie to mind her Lbecty was exceedingly mischievous eri She was left alone.

His first thought was of the gray roadster, the two men and—and Betty. “That certainly vas her,” thougut Charlie. Was she being kidnaped? What could Chartie do to help get her back? He didn’t dare face his mother. Then a thought came to him. Why no-« ask NV €rown to go after those two men? ..¢. Brown would surely do it, for he and his wife ‘vere very sympa- thetic and would surely Go anything for Charlie and Betty. One minute later Charlie had poured out the whole story to the eager Uisten- was very hesitatingly Charles said, | ers, Mr. and Mrs. Brown. After they had finished “oohing” and “ahing” and Saying “isn’t that perfectly awful,” Mr. Brown got into his automobile and started. They were just in time to see the gray roadster disappearing down an old country road, and Mr. Brown “stepped on the gas.” They were gaining on the two men rapidly and were not very far behind when one of the men turned around to see another machine hot on the trail. And just as Mr. Brown, who had pock- eted a revolver just before leaving, in case of enfergency, whipped {ft out, a s-range thing happened. The two men slic ved the car up, Jumped out, leaving Betty to . sad fate. The car crashed into a tree. In a second Charlie and Mr. Brown were pulling Betty from among the ruins. She was unconscious. Mr. Brown lifted the limp little form to his ci™ and sped toward the nearest hos- pital, where they left her. Charlie’s heart was beating fast and hard as it could during the time he anxiously awaited news of Betty's con- dition. What if Betty died? It would be all his fault, for had not he dis- obeyed his mother in going to the club? If he had not he would not have gone to it and left Betty by herself to be kndnaped by those awful men. News came half an hour later saying that one arm was broken and other things that did not amount to as much but altogether Betty was injured rather badly, though not seriously, and it would take some time for her to re- cover. When Mrs. Thomas came home all was explained to her as easily as pos- sible. You may be sure Charlle never wen‘ to that club again. Betty’s kidnapers were found and put in jail. Betty got well and Charlie took good care of he: af erward. MARGARET VOITH (aze 11). 741 Longfellow street northwest. a ee JUNE 2, 1929. AMBITION SAILOR, EEE NUT How Marcella Saved the Train Marcella Williams lived mear the banks of the Arkansas river with her parents and two sisters. She was 12 years old. One night in July a dread- ful storm came up. As Marcella was about to go to bed she heard a terri- ble crash. She waited about ten min- utes and then softly opened the door and crept out into the darkness with the moon as the only light. She ran down to the banks of the river and saw that the little old ooden railroad bridge had been washed away. Quick as a flash she ran back to the house and seized two old chairs and the ax and chopped the chairs to pieces. Then she got her father’s old red ker- chief and fastened {8 on to a stick. She then gathered up the firewood and the flag and ran down to the rail- road tracks some 500 yards from the river bank. She placed the wood in the middle of the track and made a fire and then began waving the flag. In the distance she heard the roar of -tthe train. It came nearer and nearer and finally began to slow down and came to a stop. The engineer poked his head out of the window of the engine and asked why the train was stopped. A little girl walked up to the engineer and told him that the bridge had been washed away. The engineer thanked Marcella and then began to back. Mar- cella left the fire burning to warn other trains and ran home. The next morning as Marcella drove into the little town of Martinsville in her horse cart about two miles from her home, she was met by two men. They introduced themselves as the president of the Arkansas State Railroad and the engineer of the train she had saved. The president, Mr. Reynolds, thanked her and gave her a reward of $100. Ags Marcella drove home that summer morning, I think she must have been the happiest girl in the world. RUTH GAINES (age 12). 1862 Ontario Place northwest. Our Flag Our Flag!

Decoration Day One day in the spring of every year is set apart as a legal holiday in most of the States of the Union. This day is Decoration or Memorial Day. When it first became a holiday it was to do honor to those who fought on either side in the Civil War, but since 1889 the celebration of this day has been extended to include the honored dead of the Spanish-American War. In 1868 Gen. John A. Logan, com- mander in chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, designated the 30th day of May as the day on which the Union soldiers’ graves should be dec- orated, and now in the Northern States this date is universally observed. In many of the Southern States April 26 is Memorial Day and in Louisiana Jef- ferson Davis’ birthday, June 3, was set apart. On this day out of their expression of love and grief many people visit the graves of their friends and relatives, and decorate them with many beautiful flowers. This custom has grown Na- tion-wide. Decoration Day is now a day of dig- nified addresses, exercises, parades and military salutes, as well as the decora- tion of graves. ELIZABETH O’MALLEY,. Avondale Apartments. Value of Radium Why, ask many, is radium so valuable a substance? Well, in the first place, it is rare—So rare that there are per- haps no more than three pounds of the substance in the world that have been isolated. In the second place, a ter- rific amount of labor and material Is expended in procuring a minute quan- tity of it. When Mme. Curie, discoverer of the element, was presented with one gram of radium some years ago by admirers in this country, it was estimated that 600 tons of ore had been worked upon for six months by 500 men in order to produce the single gram. Other prodig- ious quantities used in the process were 1,000 tons of coal, 10,000 tons of distilled water, and about 500 tons of various chemicals. The single gram, of which approximately 28.42 would be necessary to make ane avoirdupois ounce, was worth about $50,000. Skedaddle! Rufe Johnson's pet hound disap- peared.

» > ¢ Washington Post. WASHINGTON: SUNDAY. JUNE 2, 1929. ITH the thirtieth anniversary of Dr. Herbert Putnam's service to the Library of Congress, recent. ly commemorated by the American Li- brary Association, attention has -once more been directed to the greatest library in the Western Hemisphere and one of the three major libraries of the world. To this position it has climbed in the 129 years of its existence, first with great slowness and several set- backs and later by a large and steady increase in volume and service. The period since 1899, when in the spring Dr. Putnam assumed charge, has been in many ways the most striking period in the Library’s whole history. It has been the period of bearing fruit, the seeds of which had been sowed during the nineteenth century. The achievements have been on the physical side—including the fully developed use of the building which was finished in 1897, enlargement of the catalogue and other equipment—and on the side of an increased service that has been of far-reaching value to a great number of libraries throughout the world. Thus the Library of Congress, origin- ally established for the use of Con- gfess, has come to be, as well, an in- stitution rendering all the usual service of a large public or university library; it has made itself indispensable to other libraries while continuing to sup- ply members of Congress and other Governmental officials with data on the almost limitless number of subjects that arise in the tasks of Governmental workers. The Library of Congress was created in April, 1800, when an act of Con- gress waS approved by President Jef- ferson. By some, Jefferson is regarded as the founder of our national lbrary. He used to call it “the Library of the United States.” The first appropriation was small enough—$5,000 for the purchase of books and for the equipping of a 5ec- tion of the Capitol to house them. Two years later a committee was formed made up of members of the two houses and under this committee library mat- ters fell for nearly a century. In 1897, however, the power of administration was intrusted by law to the librarian. A library of a little over 3,000 volumes had been built up by 1814, at which time the British invaded Washington. In the Capitol burning these were lost. But a new collection was soon started, built around the library of 7,000 which had belonged to Jefferson. He him- self had made a catalogue for his coliection and his classificatfon served the new library in the arrangement of books and in the published catalogues until 1864 Up to the middle of the century the growth had been small yet steady. About -1,300 volumes a year came in. By 1851 some 55,000 volumes were pres- ent when a second fire destroyed three- fifths of the coilection. Congress made appropriations for a new start, which was followed in 1865 by enlargement of quarters—still in the Capitol. Two years later the first really large pur- chase was made: The Library bought the Peter Force collection of Americana ' for $100,000. This splendid group of about 60,000 items—collected by the first important American collector— made a notable contribution to the library, then nearly 100,000 strong. By virtue of the coyright law as it stood between 1846 and 1859 (and for a short period somewhat later) only one copy of a copyrighted book had to be deposited in the library. By the act of July 8, 1870, two copies became necessary. Today, with a few excep- tions under a later act, this provision stands. In these early years some smaller collections of importance were bought, notably the Rochambeau papers dealing with French-American history. An ex- change arrangement with the Smith- sonian Institution brought in a wealth of scientific works. The old Capitol quarters with their provision for about 350,000 volumes grew yearly more inadequate. Hun- dreds of thousands of books, music pieces, prints, etc.. had to be stored where they were all but inaccessible, and facilities for the proper conduct of library business and of study became hopelessly behind the needs, A new-— ® separate—building was the only s0- lution. ae This Congress, tn 1896 after thirteen Library of Congress, for Almost a Third of a Century Under the Guidance of Dr. Herbert Putnam, Ranks First in the Western Hemisphere and Third in the World in Number of Volumes and Domestic and International Service. By KEYES PORTER. Harris & Ewing. Dr. Herbert Putnam, librarian, under whose guidance the Library of Congress has flour- years of discussion, authorized, and eleven years later the present home of the Library was ready to be moved into. In the summer of 1897 the col- lection, except for a part of the law library which has remained in the Capitol, was moved. The Library. then numbered about 1,000,000 volumes and pamphlets. In the same year Congress provided for the reorganization of the Library. .The office of register of copy- rights was created to serve under “he librarian, and the whole staff enlarged. The Library has had eight librarians whose terms of office have ranged from about eighteen months to 32 years. A remarkable period of growth fol- lowed the occupancy of the new build- ing. Before 1897 the annual appropri- ations for books had for some tim? averaged less than $10,000. Since then the average for books has been about $86,500 annually. Since 1897 the collection of and manuscripts has grown from 1,009,- | | Washington's most 000 to over 3,800,000; the maps from §}0.000 to over 1,000,000; the music f.om 250,000 pieces to over 1,000,000; the prints from 200,000 to nearly 500,009, books i ished for more than 30 years. and the uncounted at least tenfold. The reorganization and expansion of facilities that began 30 years ago has brought into smooth opcration a com- plex machine for the widest govern- mental and public service. Among the major achievements that attended “getting the Louse in order’ were the creation and application of a system of classification, the adoption of processes of cataloging. including forms of en- try, which are now standardized for American libraries. Thus © real econo- my of money and effort generally possible. The staff in 1899 numbered 24, in 1924, nearly 450. Today it totals 490. And, with the increase in salaries made possible by Congress in 1923, the ef- ficiency has been greafly improved.

Begun in 1686, it was ready for occupancy in 1897, after $6,347,000 had been expended by the Government, in addition to the $585,000 paid for the site. For its creation 1,600 plans and drawings were made. Having no precedents of con- struction in libraries then existing, the designers. had an open field, even if they had a difficult task to create a building elastic enough in the interior arrangements for the Iimevitable great expansion.

With a total of a little less than 4,000,000 printed books and manu- scripts, the Library of Congress stands second among the world’s great lib- raries. The Bibliotheque Nationale (Paris) stands first with 4,050,000 vol- | umes. The latest figures of the Lib- ,Tary of Congress are 3,840,000, while the British Museum has 3,000,000. Our National Library's main collec- tions are strongest in bibliography, history, political and social sciences, public law and legislation, the fine arts, American local history, biograpny genealogy The various works of fcreign learned societies come to the Library through the Smithsonian In-« stitution. The copyright law 1.288 brought into the Library. the most com- plete collection in existence of the products of the American press. Foreign governments send us annually, through the international exchange service, about 12,000 volumes of their publications. From the American gove ernments, Federal, State and local, come about 32,000 volumes annually. The Library rightly possesses the Originals of the Declaraticn of Inde« | pendence and the Constitution, suit- |ably enshrined, as well as priceless groups of papers of the Presidents and | those of the Continental Congress. Among the special collections should be noted that dealing with Whistler, igiven by Mr. and Mrs. Pennell; the two collections bequeathed by Harry |Houdini; the Russian literature group | of 90,000 volumes, unsurpassed outside 'of Russia; the collection of Chinese | literature (100,000 yolumes), unsur- 'pessed outside of China and = Japan. 'Then there is the collection of manu- scripts for American history—the larg- est in existence—of untold importance ‘to the historian. In the collection of ‘maps historians and legal contestan‘s | will find the widest aid in their prob- ‘lems.

@hamges (International and Smithson- fan), transfers from the Executive De- partment—notably of manuscripts from the Department of State—and ~« gifts and bequests that the Library has risen to its present eminence. In this period the annual increase came to be over 150,000 items. It may surprise some readers to learn that mot every book which is copy- righted is added to the Library. Many works are put out that are worthless, and it is part of the duties of the staff to select with deliberation those which have value. While no censorship is at work, no subjects as such are proht- bited, the output of the world's presses make this procedure necessary. Prom the establishment of the library in 1800 until 1924 only three and a half million dollars had been spent on books. One American private collector has spent in the past quarter century seven times that amount. The Government has spent in all about $37,847,478 since 1800, of which $7,490,- 051 went into the building. The work of this vast institution falle under two headings—that within the library and that to the American community at large. For several years an increasing number of serious in- vestigators has been coming to the Library—authors, lecturers, scholars. To Congress itself more servicé has be- come necessary, with the increase in @emands upon the Library so that a legislative reference division has been created which fulfills in an immediate way the original purpose of the Libr@ty. The calls made upon the collections cover the entire range of scientific and creative literature. A senator about to draft a bill calls for similar acts already on various statute books. A congress- man calls for figures on cotton exports. A member of the State Department needs figures on the population of certain European countries. A distant library writes in for a list of references on South America and is furnished an exhaustive typewritten mass of mate- rial. A professor of classical literature in a small college needs a Hst of references in foreign periodicals on Aristophanes. The list could be prolonged indefinitely. It even con- tains absurd inquiries, as, Does a horse have eyebrows? A little nature study is here in order, not a library. The Library is absolutely free to any reader over 16 years old. The privilege of drawing books for home use is ex- tended by statute to senators and rep- resentatives, certain high officials of the Government, judges and certain other groups. The librarian, in pur- guance of his authority to make rules and regulations, also grants this privi- lege to scholars engaged in research; and under the system of “interlibrary loans” the “unusual book for the unusual néed” is issued to such scholars at a distance. The Govern- ment bureaus in Washington draw books freely for official use, usually through their librartans. The purpose of the administration Is the freest possible use of the books consistent with their safety, and the widest possible use consistent with the convenience of Congress. There is No limit to the number of DbDOoOoKSs a reader may draw for reference use, and ihe has direct access to a reference collection of over 15,000 volumes in the main reading room. If his studies require that he have access to the Bhelves, this privilege is granted him, and if he needs to have the continuous use of the same books day after day, he is given a table where they may be reserved for him. When a typewriting Machine will greatly facilitate a scholar’s labors, a desk is provided in @® room where readers will not bde' @isturbed by its use.

Though many important gifts in the form of books, prints, etc., have come to the library, up to 1924 only one of money had been received. But public interest had grown s0 that several] have since come in. To receive and ad- minister funds on the endowment basis, an act of Congress was necessary. Such an act created the needed ma- chinery in “The Library of Congress Trust Fund Board,” approved March 3, 1925. -Under this arrangement the library has already received some munificent and significant financial aid from sources outside the Govern- ment. Protected by safeguards wise in details of scope, tax exemption, ad- ministration, etc., these funds are now being used “for the benefit of the Library of Congress, its collections or its service’—happily a broad provision. The salaries of certain members of the staff—certain division chiefs—nhave been increased by the endowment ar- rangements. Some of the important endowments and gifts are the $100,000 from Mr. James B. Wilbur for American history source material; $10,000 from Mr. R. R. Bowker for work in _ bibliography: $110,000 from Mrs. Frederic Coolidge for a music auditorium in one of the courts ef the Library, and another fund for the promotion of music study and an add#ional stipend for the music @ivision chfef.

By the combination of technical resources —in catalogues, library-trained person- nel and technical knowledge of the subject the collections become tenfold more productive for the research work- ers. Another innovation grows out of the first. A second group of experts, not administrators, as are the chiefs, is at work. These consultants are also spe- cialists, they are drawn from the ranks of retired or advanced professors. Thus ripe experience and a full knowledge are plaved at the disposal of readers in several divisions. Herbert Putnam, one of the sons of George Palmer Putnam, who founded the famous publishing house, comes by his love of books naturally enough, but twice during his long public career he has turned to law. In 1884, when he was 23, he became a member of the bar in Minneapolis, after taking law in Columbia—his undergraduate work was at Harvard—and again he practiced law in Boston for four years following 1891. In Minneapolis, after serving as librarian to the Athenaeum, he organ- ized the public library with which the Athenaeum became merged, as a free circulating library with branches and delivery stations. Under his organizing guidance a fund of $400,000 was made up, land was purchased and a library erected. At the end of his seven years’ service the collection had grown from 12,000 to 62,000, partly aided by his purchasing in the European markets. This foreign experience was later called into play for the Library of Congress. When a Vacancy occurred in the Bos- ton Public Library Herbert Putnam was unanimously selected as the new head of the library that is housed in what was long known as Boston’s most perfect architectural possession — the famous building on Copley square con- taining the immortal Sargent murals. In January, 1899, the Librarian of Congress, John Russell Young, died. President McKinley, in whose power lay the choice of a successor, entered into negotiations with Mr. Putnam. The President, however, was reminded of a political obligation to a certain man— not a professional librarian—and tried to install him. The Senate balked, and the American Library Association, while only a young organization with 23 years to its credit, protested that the post was too important to be made a political offering. Thus urged, Presi- dent McKinley saw the matter, in a new light and resumed intercourse with é.-. ‘= OOD mag 0 OE « .

Mr. Putnam. The latter agreed to ac- cept, providing Congfess would appro- priate $250,000 for expansion of the collection and the service. This was agreed upon, and he took the most im- portant chair in the American library world. He has always shown an unerring sense for the thing to be done; he has always had a highly developed sense of the responsibility resting upon any cue- todian of books, wherever that custo- dian may be. Some years ago, while visiting a distant library that had an exceptional, in fact, a umnique, col- lection in one department, he observed that proper and adequate use of this collection was not being made, that they were playing with ‘the job, and he promptly said so. More striking was the thought—to some an inspiration, but really a logica] coordination of ideas—-that Dr. Putnam had on books for the service man in the World War. Breakfasting one morning —in April, 1917, with Frederick Keppel in the Cosmos Club—or, rather, post- breakfasting, as he frequently drops in for a plate of griddle cakes—he said, “What are you going to do about t-oks for the soldiers?”’ Mr. Keppel answered, “I don't know. What’s on your mind?” “The Army is going to be made up of a cross-section of the country. Ours is a reading public.” The next morning, by arrangementa made by Mr... Keppel, Dr. Putnam talked it over with Secretary Baker The result was the creation of the Library War Service, under the Ameri- can Library Association, that put over 6,000,000 books in camps, in the trefiches, on boats—the largest library ever assembled under one organization, but, paradoxically, not assembled: in fact, scattered from Kearney to Cob- lenz—and beyond. And today the ac- tive library service in the American merchant marine is an outgrowth of the war libraries. Dr. Putnam, many times honored by degrees in several universities, a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Schences, and twice president of the American Library Association, has writ- ten compaeratively little, but his nu- merous articles in reviews ahd pro- fessional journals are adumbrations of & mind that weighs carefully and ex- presses itself clearly and in beautiful prose. “Lfbraries,”’ he wrote Many years ago, “link us with the past, not by archi- tectural mode, but by conserving that which is worthy. - They give a sense of continuity. Libraries are the conscious expressions of man. They are man looking forward, backward, upward and inward—they are man dynamic.” The Library still needs) much m Americana of the sixteenth, seven- teenth, eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, in American newspapers of the eighteenth century, in incumabula (including Hebraica), certain early edi- tions of the Bible, as 1514-17, six vol- ume folio Biblia Polyglotta, the Cover- dale Bible of 1535, and the Gutenberg Bible (42-lHne), 1452-6. Other gape force themselves on the attention, as, for example, certain edi- tions of the works of Spenser, Shake- speare, Beaumont and Fletcher, Milton, Blake, and Cervantes. Concerning some special collections of music which are available tm Europe. an official report says: “A great na- tional service could be rendered by per- sons who would make it possible for these treasurers (four to six special col- lections still in private hands) to find & permanent place in our National Library. The opportunities for such service are becoming fewer and fewer, the urgency of tt is growing more and more pressing.” | . Is it not a Httle ironic that the H- brary which contains the original of the Declaration of Independence and the original of the Constitution of the United States should be weaker in its collectton of Americana than any other library—even one built up by a wealthy collector? Is it not a little ironic that the library which serves the Supreme Court and the Nation's lawmakers should have a collection of law books inferior to that of Harvard University? | The total equipment of the Library of Congress is callmg more and more students each year to Washington, for the word has gone around that, save in a few subjects, their needs will be filled better there than anywhere in the country.

Private collec- tors who have had the joy of building up valuable and unique collections may be prompted more and more Dy patriotic motives as well as by the con- sideration that their collecttons will become not dead museum exhibits but quickened, vitalized material if they are put under an admirable adminis- tration for active use whenever it % calleq upon—tf they become & part os | the Library of Congress.

The Inside Story of the Quest for Big League is @ business and a big business at that. It is capitalized in the millions and the overhead expenses of one major league team ri-1 into the hundreds of thousands annually, But baseball, considered the nationa) game, differs from other businesses be- cause of the fact that every fan, even though he sees the games from the bleacher seats, makes it his business and feels perfectly free to hoot, deride or criticize every one connected with the team representing his city from the club owner down to the bat boy. The average cash customer, indeed, feels that he knows just as much, if not more, about the mechanics of play as the manager and plavers. He is the fellow who was responsible for the coining of the expression “second guess,” for after each game he can show how the home team might have won had it done something different from what it did. Mr. Fan knows all of the players by their first names. He knows where they came from, their pedigrees, whether they are single, almost mar- riled or married, their height and weight, whether they are right or left- handed, and wht their baseball record has been almost from the time they Started playing on the sandlots. From observation, their own experiences on the diamond in a small way, and from papers written by so-called “experts,”’ fans also Know, or think they do, all of the secrets of inside play and, for this reason, out of every 10,000 crowd probably 9,000 will admit that they are “experts.” ; Walter Johnson, the new manager of the Washington Club, has only had about 23 years experience in profes- Slional baseball, yet he declares that he receives om an average of about 25 letters a day from fans telling him how his club can get the habit of winning! consistently As an example, Walter | By FRANK H.

In 1910 he ‘played professional ball with Grafton, in the West Virginia State League, and then deciced to go to college and matriculated at Mount St. Mary’s, just outside of Baltimore.

Then he was given a chance with the Washington Club and it was two things which he Showed while a Na- mendations for a Job as scout.

But before taking up the scouting game, Engel had to be convinced that he.was not a pitcher and it took sev- eral trials before he would admit it. His main trouble was inability to locate the plate and one of the best of the many stories told of him while a player comes from Minneapolis in this connection. In one game he walked 16 players and that night some one asked Manager Joe Cantillon for 'a pass to the next day's game. “See | Joe Engel,” was the reply, “he tissues | ont of the passes on this club.” | Despite his wildness on the pitching | mound Minneapolis sold Engel to the | Red Sox in 1916, but he ended up with ithe Buffalo Internationals.

He looked like a million dollars while playing at Salt Lake City a few years back,‘ and the scouts fought to get a chance to buy him, Connie Mack finally landed him for the Athletics at a price said to be close to $100,000, and he lasted less than a year. A scout making one or two pur- chases of this kind would soon put his club in the hénds of a recerver.” , Being the only scout on a club and having to compete with teams like the New York Yankees, who have seven regular ones and any number of others spotted in different sections of the country, who are paid a commission for any likely talent they uncover, natu- rally keeps Engel hustling to hold his own. “I probably travel 50,000 miles dur- ing a season,’ he says, “and then have troubie in getting everywhere that I want to go, but, as a rule, I always manage to see any talent recommend- ed by people tn whose judgment I have conficence.” Before going into details as to how Engel works, it might be mentioned that he and President Griffith have formed a “mutual admiration” society. “In the first place,” says Bngel, “the actions of the owner of the club you are working for make your work either easy or hard. ‘There are times when a scout has to close a deal at once or lose his man.

Oddly enough, this $50,000 deal, the largest in baseball that seaq- son, was not exactly made on Engel’s recommendation. About halfway through the 1924 season Manager Hara rz3 told President Griffith that he bee lieved his team had a chance to win the American League pennant if a good, right-hand-hitting outfielder could be obtained. Of course, Engel was im-« mediately given the job of uncovering one. The o two whom he thought- might fill the bill were Earl McNeely, then with Sacramento, and Bill Zittze man, with the Newark Club, of the Ine ternational League, who is now with the Cincinnati Reds. Engel hustled to the Pacific Coast and took a look at McNeely. He liked his work, but found that Sacramento wanted $75,000 for the player. Not wanting to be responsible for a pute chase at this price, Joe hustled back . East to take a look at Zittzman, who also had a high-price tag on him , first telephoning President Griffith to meet him at Buffalo, where Newark was playing a double-header.

And now those that are left of this gallant band are gathering again, full of years and honors, to talk things over, heart to heart, the bonds of affection that unite them grown stronger with the passing decades. On Wednesday | they go to te White House to be re- celved by the President, a personal | friend of many of them, as has been | their custom from McKinley down: | thence out to Arlington, and later to | the class banquet at the Lafayette. On' Thursday they attend the graduating | exercises at Annapolis and also the | alumni dinner. The spirit of loyalty and attachment | which pervades the group has played | as important a role as have their ac- complishments in making the class out- standing. What °81 means to at least one of them can be best indicated, per- haps, by a backward journey over 4a span of months to the time when the) Hon, Ovington E. Weller, the class) president, was a United States ‘natant from Maryland. It was a busy afternoon in the sen- ator’s office, and the man awaiting his turn in the outer room, being a con- stituent and true to type, was firing qu->7*tons at the assistant who had ad- mitted him. He had been glancing over the section of the Congressional Directory dealing with the biographies of the various statesmen. “Senator Weller seems to have left a good many footprints in the sand,” he remarked. ‘“‘What does he consider the greatest honor that has come to him in life?” The unworthy purveyor of informa- tion did not know, but pondered the question, resolving later to make in- quiry. He hesitated barely a second when asked. “None of them,” he answered | then, astoundingly. Reaching down into a drawer of per- sonal belongings, he drew from it a bat- tered reunion program of the Naval Academy class of ’61. “I've been its president for nearly 30 years,” he stated simply, “and it’s the finest, the realest thing that has come to me in Hfe. “I could fight my way in the financial world, in politics, even into the United States Senate, but the affection of my classmates wasn’t won through fighting. | Ass ssociation Against the Prohibition Amendment; William W.

Bunts.” The past tense here is his only indi- cation that these two dear friends are no longer among the living. “Dr. Bunts 'was one of the founders of the great Cleveland clinic which ranked second only to Mayo Brothers in this country before the ghastly catastrophe that has just occurred.

Yet the friende ship which was to bring them this title was not long after graduation day in its beginning. Charles W. Stewart, Sam's roome mate at the academy, who hag been gecretary of the class during the long period in which the senator has been its president, and to whom the latter refers as the man who knows more about ‘81 than any other living person, recalls John as he was in those far-off days in vividly degcriptive terms. “He was aS rosy as a »aby,” he says, “and as strong as a man of iron.” Charlie was in a position to know how strong he was, serving with him as he did on the hish-hash-hosh team, this being a game or stunt consisting | of certain acrobatic maneuvers, per- | formed, for safety’s sake, on a mattress, by ten men with muscles of steel. There was another indoor sport which 'made use of every boy in the academy, ‘though it failed to equal hish-hash- hosh in popularity. The rules and regu- ‘lations stated that a bath had to be taken once a week—whether or not it was needed. Great was the wailing ‘and gnashing of teeth when bath day , came around. Bathing was not 60 | common in those days as now, and, as Mr. Stewart recalls with painful memo- ries, not nearly so easy of achievement. ‘It wag. necessary to install an officer whose duty it was to have the boys ‘most notable class Annapolis has yet | | boys had little in common.

As a matter of fact, the separations were far from voluntary on their part. Not that they had done anything to merit their dismissal. The Navy, at the time, was beginning to fing itself overcrowded with junior officers, Something had to be done. So it came about that the act of August 5, 1882, the navy appropriation bill for that year, provided for the disbanding of several classes of naval cadets who had entered the academy with the under- standing that they were to be takem into the naval service. By the time this act went into effect, the class of '81 was just completing the two year cruise then required of graduate cadets before commissions were in order. The big moment when they were to have become officrs had arrived, but for most of them it meané nothing. They took their honorabi¢ discharges with some bitterness toward fate and state, though with only core dial good wishes for the fortunate few who remained in their chosen calling. The future, on the whole, looked dark. Of what use was a soldier of the sea in private life? Then determina- tion rose within them and the question was changed to a high resolve to prove that they had not been felled for good by Fate's first blow. The succeeding years proved how splendidly this resolve was being care ried out. Such progress had been mad¢ by 1898 that it was confidently pre- dicted by a commentator in that yeag that before another decade had passed the majority would be in the front ranks of the spheres adopted as theif second choice.

Three Popes have given the enter- prise their solemn blessing and bene- diction—-Pope Pius X, Pope Benedict XV, and Pope Prus XI, the present holy father. One of the most striking works of art of the shrine will be a magnificent mosaic, based on perhaps the greatest of the Immaculate Conceptions painted by Murillo. This will be a gift of the holy father. It will be placed in the sanctuary, a fitting background for the main altar, and will represent years of labor in the far-famed mosaic works of the Vatican. The visitor to the shrine today is impressed with the beauty of the crypt. Though it is Just a corner of the base- ment of the church to be, has cost $1,500,000. the crypt The observer, dazzled at the beauty of the crypt, can get but a glimpse of the glory that will be when the shrine is fins. hed. The crypt and mosaic. is adorned with marble It is cruciform im shape. The prevailing motive of decoration is taken from the Roman _ catacombs. Ceramic art makes possible the repro- duction of the ancient ‘atacomb frescoes. An illustration is the reproduction of the scene of the “breaking of the i bread,” said to have been discovered in the catacomb of Priscilla, from the second century. Famous marble and dating quarries have con- marble mosaic floor, costing upward of $100,000. The choicest marbies from Italy, Africa, North and South America, have gone into the making of the pavement. A unique and treasured relic, now in the subbasement, is the Bishop Carroll altar, used by Bishop John Carroll, of Maryland. It was used in the crypt until the installation of the beautiful Mary ' Memorial altar. The ceiling of the arch of the crypt is built to support the floor of the bascilica, and the tremendous main altar. It is capable of sustaining a weight of nearly 1,000,000 pounds. The crypt has three great apses, with five altars in each apse. It is lighted by fifteen lunette windows, which are a feature of the fifteen chapels. The main or Mary Memorial altar dominates the crypt, and at once im- presses the visitor. Its base of onyx inlaid with gold cost $50,000 and was presented by the International Federa- tion of Catholic Alumnae on November 19, 1927. Marble pillars from all over the world contribute to the beauty of the crypt. Altegether, this superb beginning of the National Shrine gives promise of the greatness of the completed struc- ture. More advanced in construction, and certainly no less beautiful, is the Epis- copal Cathedral. High on Mount St. Alban, the cathedral dominates one of the most beautiful sections of the city. Heading the great enterprise are the Right Rev. James E. Freeman, Episcopal Bishop of Washington, and Gen. John J. Pershing. The charter of the cathedral was granted in 1393 by Congress. The pres- r great ent architects are Frohman, Robb & Little and Cram & Ferguson The cathedral is of early fourteenth century decorated Gothic architecture. Its flying buttresses, and towering Spires, so typical of Gothic structures, are visible in the already completed apse. The completed structure will be cruci- form in shape, with two transepts forming the arms of the cross. The total length will be 534 feet, and the width at the transepts will be 135. The total area will be 71,000 square feet. The central tower will be 262 feet high. Since the ground is 400 feet above the Potomac, the tower will rise 100 feet higher above the the Washington Monument. Mount St. Alban is recognized to be one of the greatest cathedral sites in the world. The cathedral close covers an area of 671, acres. More than 26,000 persons, from every State in the Union, already have con- tributed over $7,000,000 to the under- taking. It is estimated that the even- tual cost of the cathedral and asso- Clated buildings will be $30,000,000. It is impossible to write of the beauty of the completed apse of this temple without enthusias™. Majestic, lofty, it is truly a vision in atone of the faith that is making pos river than , CQNTINUED.

Bitting in an armchair by an open window, the great Marshal of France inquired of an attendant if the bed was ready and had been warmed.

The Houdini his first lift out of obscurity was the develop. thing that gave Harry ment of the handcuff trick. intervals between. Then he vanished for an hour. At the end of that time a messenger appeared with an envelope, on which this legend was typewritten: ‘To be delivered in a Hurry to Mrs. Houdini, then Exit Rapidly.” Within were these formal words: Mr. Houdini wishes to inform Mrs. Houdini that the first globe fell out of his hand, but the sec- ond one slipped. He wishes to convey his sorrow, and promises that the one that fell will never fall again—Mr. Houdini, Friend Husband. “It was impossible to be angry very long with a husband of that kind.”’ Phe thing that gave Harry Houdini his first lift out of obscurity was a development of the despised handcuff trick, which most of his early audi- ences gazed upon with such a marked lack of enthusiasm. There has been much learned dis- cussion—and much nonsensical specu- lation, in every civilized language—as to how Houdini escaped from handcuffs and prison cells under most abnormal and rigorous conditions. Many per- sons have explained the mystery by the suggestion that Houdini could com- press his knuckles so that they became smaller than his wrists and thus he easily slipped out of the gyves. Hou- dini could not do that, though it was) not for lack of trying, and he main- tained from his own experience that it was physically impossible to make one's hand of smaller compass than one’s wrist. From many ordinary handcuffs Hou- dini could release himself by giving them a blow in a certain spot. For the more difficult handcuffs he would use his picklock, a refinement of | the little instrument he devised while | working for the locksmith in Appleton. He could, incidentally, improvise a workable picklock from a bit of wire or a pin or a watch spring. Certain handcuffs he could unlock with the aid of a piece of twine alone. The real key was his profound knowledge of every type of lock and locking systems. How he managed to operate, with his hands trussed behind him is another matter. There were certain gyves from which | he freed himself by sheer dexterity and strength. His exact process of working would be, as he sometimes remarked, a dangerous thing to let loose in any society, even though few persons would have the special skill and knowledge to | make use of it. The little picklock remained with him through most of the tests. The surgeons and detectives, at all delicate in their attentions, would pass their hands over every inch of his body, and probe and explore, but | never during all the years of his escapes | did any of them find anything on him.) “Sure, I had something on me, a little bit of a thfng,” he once explained | to a friend. easy to see looked it.” It was not until the end of 1898, when he was playing a series of obscure “The hiding-place was so that they always over- engagements in Chicago and environs, | | that Houdini hit on a scheme for mak- | ing his police station stunt more dra- matic. He went about his plans carefully: First he made friends with several newspaper men. Then he secured an introduction to Andy Rohan, lieutenant of detectives and the right-hand man of the chief of police. Houdini took his wife to the city to pay a visit to Rohan, and it was her job to keep the rotund and good-natured officer amused while Houdini prowled about and sur- reptitiously studied the lock system. After a second visit to Rohan, Hou- dini told his reporter friends that he could escape from the city jail after letting himself be handcuffed and locked in a cell. Nobody had done any- thing like that in Chicago before, so that was news. Houdini therefore paid another visit to the jail, this time ac- companied by several reporters and a photographer. Rohan was not una- ware of the value of reporters and the stunt pleased him. He assumed that Houdini could not get out, and he’ was not averse to having that young nui- Sance make a fool of himself. Houdini was duly locked up, and In & few minutes he walked into the war- den’s office a free man. His reception, however, was disappointing. The re- porters had learned, in the interval, of his previous visits to the jail, and as- sumed that he had taken a wax im- pression of the locks, had keys made, and merely took them out of his pocket and unlocked the cell door and the corridor exits. There was no magic in that, said the smeotienl pati men, and | chief’s quarters, hard-boiled | -and intent and up to tricks, and not it wasn’t news. “Suppose you strip me. and search me before you lock me up?” said Hou- dini. That sounded more like the rea) thing, they admitted, and so that was done, and, in addition, at Houdint’s suggestion, they sealed his mouth with plaster. His clothes were locked in another cell. So they left him, mana- cled and stark naked, and within ten minutes he _ strolled jauntily into Rohan’s office with his clothes on, Moreover, he entered the chief's office from the street door. First, he had let himself out of the jail and dashed over to his wife at their lodgings, to cry “Success! Success!” By that time quite a crowd had assembled in the and all of them, es- pecially Andy Rohan, were impressed and astounded. The real thrill, however, came the next morning. Houdint burst into the room (he always burst in; he could never come in quietly) waving a sheaf of newspapers and shouting, “Bessl Bess! I'm famous! Look at my pic- ture in the paper!” This was the real beginning of Hou- dini’s public jail breaking. Thereafter, he escaped from the principal jails in many cities. His collection of certifi- cates from the police and municipal authorities covers most of the larger cities from San Francisco to Moscow, In his demonstrations there was not a single failure. Sometimes the task was a tough one, even for him. On a number of occa- ‘sions he emerged with his limbs swol- len or ‘‘teeding, and concealing his |exhaustion as best he could | One of his most strenuous escapes was made in one of the larger Califor- nia cities, during his first trip to the | Coast, not long after he surprised Andy ‘Rohan. On this occasion, after strip- | ping Houdini, the chief of police had 'him locked in a cell with four pairs of ‘handcuffs on his arms, shackles to his legs, and one leg encased in an Oregon | boot, a 55-pound leg iron that had no key and worked by a combination lock, After Houdini had escaped from these complicated shackles, the chief of po- ‘lice, who had submitted to the test | with reluctance, issued the following |formal and not very complimentary public statement: < “Should Houdini turn out to be a criminal, I would consider him a very | dangerous man, and I suggest that the | various officers throughout the United |States remember his appearance, in "case of future emergency.” Once, and once only, Houdini failed to get out of a handcuff. It was short- ‘ly before the Andy Rohan incident, | while he was filling an engagement at Middleton’s Museum in Chicago. A detective locked him in a pair of cuffs that completely baffled him. He work- ed over the shackles vainly for more than an hour, until.the audience began to jeer him. “Do you give up, Houdini?’ asked the detective. “No,” replied Houdini, resolutely. “Well, said the detective, “I might .as well tell you that cuff don't open. I fixed a slug in it and it won’t unlock.” After that Houdini was more wary. He first locked and unlocked every cuff brought to him. When, toward the close of 1899, Hou- dini’s efforts to start in the big show palaces of the larger Eastern cities proved futile, he decided on a herolc roundabout method of attacking this problem. He would save enough money to go abroad and would conquer Amer- ica by way of Europe, as many a good American performer had done. His logic was sound enough. In those more naive prewar days this country was far less self-sufficient than it is now, and reputations that had the stamp of ap- proval of London, Paris or Berlin had an exalted value in New York. In the late spring of 1900 Houdini, with his wife, booked passage second class in & Small liner and sailed, without a shadow of an engagement awaiting him, to at- tempt to take Europe by storm. They arrived in London and put up at an actors’ boarding house. Then be- gan a tedious search for a booking. The agencies proved cold to the val- lant claims of the Handcuff King. Hou- dini’s certificates from police chiefs of remote American cities did not impress them. After some days of fruitless inter views Houdini happened to call at the Office of an agent who was away. In his place was a very young man named Harry Day, who, perhaps because of his inexperience, became interested ip Houdini and arranged to have him -_ CONTINUED ON PAGE 15, COLUMN 13 i ' i i | | | | : 7 ten me U6UmhhmlhlUC hlC<C‘i STC)! lCUvVKFFF

By ADA RAINEY | Photos courtesy of the Canadian Legation. NE of the most vital expressions O of art in Washington is in the Canadian Legation. The collec- tion of paintings belonging to Mr. Vin- cent Massey is a revelation of a new form of art that is littl known throughout the United States and especially in Washington. Entering the large drawing room, the paintings burst upon the vision with compelling force. Where have such paintings come from? What is the background of the artists who have had the bold- ne@s and the originality to paint in thig fashion untrammeled by tradi- tion or known art movements? Here are no hackneyed themes, no ready-made methods of the schoois that have been handed down from master to student. Irstead here is fresh inspiration of untrodden fields, of the mountains of the great North that seem like mysterious strangers to the milder atmosphere of Washington. But these paintings are serene in their certainty of themselves; they are not concerned with the stir they may be creating with the uninitiated, so cer- tain are they of themselves and their rightness. It seems unbelievable that when they were first painted they were not receivd, but were outlawed, as have been most of the great paintings sincé the days of the Italian renaissance For each movement in art is usually a movement forward and it is resisted by those who are firmly entrenched in thelr own formulae and set ways of doing things. It is ¢his rigidity that resists the inflowing life that will not be stayed. In the case of these Canadian paint- ers the story of their achievement is | as truly a romance as is that of the Giscovery of gold in the Northwest or of the countries beyond the great | plains. For this is the story of the | discovery of the spiritual life of Can- ada and its awakening in the minds of a group of painters and its acceptance by their countrymen. Indeed, as so often happens, the prophet is not with” out honor save in his own country, nd it was the older mother country of ste that first discovered the great talents of her sons across the A group of men called the. Seven now represent that most noteworthy in Canadian is the nucleus and from this ter the movement has grown, been in- vigorated from within itself, and has become known and appreciated in Eng- sea.

And the striving to express his feeling abouf the woods in paint is the story of all great human endeavor of all geniuses. Thompson was assuredy a genius. Algonquin Park is twelve hours by rail from Toronto and it was here that almost all the work of Thompson was done. Here he lived and he would spend all the time he could away from civilization only returning when neces- sary to sell his paintings. He would spend long days and nights in the open often spending the whole night in his canoe. He was finally drowned and all that was ever found was the upturned canoe. But his paintings from being Sateen are enn ae adie Se ee Se —_— oo - - = Soaanvee-atne taaiaaarrn annem apr tight and rather photographic became broadly decorative and powerful. in him and he met great encourage- ment from his friends of the group and later when they were banded in- formally into “The Group of Seven” he became one of them although not their leader. His paintings were bought by the National Gallery of Canada which had just been formed about 1914. But it was not without a strug- gle that recognition was won and it was not Thompson only for his strug- gle was that of the other men who were bound together in their love of freedom and their detestation of being a slave to the formulas of the schools. The superb “West Wind,” now in the Toronto Gallery, is a masterpiece filled with the bold free spirit of the country that surrounds Georgian Bay. old land and throughout many cities of the Northwest of this country It began with a group of commer- cial artists who were employed by “Grip Limited,” designers and engrav- ers in Toronto. These men went to the great woods and mountains of north- eri Ontario for their vacations and all | their pent-up energy burst forth in renewed creative power in painting the gieat country that surrounded them. The inen were Tom Thompson, J. E. H. MacDonald, Arthur Lismer, Frank Car- michael, Frank Johnson, F. Horseman Varley, Tom McLean, A. H. Robson, William Broadhead and Neil McKech- nie J. E. H. MacDonald was a sort of father to the group, for he was the senior member of the department and au artist with a highly developed sense of design; he rather led the others along the way of the He came new development. to Canada from Durham, land, although his father was Cana- dian birth. He never received any training except in the schools of Hain- ilton and Toronto, which would not be considered training at all in Europe. lic was early elected as a member of the Ontario Society of Artists, whicn was the only art society of any kind | in the early days before 1910, and | dared .to paint as he saw the North from his sense of design. Another man whose name has be- come sort of a myth is that of Tom Thompson, whose character was that by of the real artist impatient of commer- clalism of any sort. He had behind. him a definite pioneer tradition, his father being one in the full sense of the word, who took himself and his horse and sought out a place in which | to settle. The son was a natural artist, ana when not working with the Grip) Limited fe would go out in the woods |. and live and pafpt.. This was greatest desire. Money “meant little to him except to allow him™*0 live in | the woods. Once when he was ‘given a check for his work he walked tnta& the first bank to have it cashed. He was asked for an identification. that he was trying to get money un- der false pretenses. He tore the check into bite before the eyes of the cashier ~ 0d stalked out of the bank. The story fe Eng- | ais | He wa -insulted and demanded !f they thought | Its like had not been seen before. | Thompson exhibited for the first ‘time in 1913 with the Ontario Society of Artists and his painting “A Nor- thern Lake” was bought by the On- tario government. Later “The Jack Pines” and “‘Northern River” were ac- ‘quired by the gallery in Ottawa. His life as an artist was compressed into five years After he was drowned his friends erected a cairn of bolders to his mem- ory which states that he “lived humbly and passionately with the wild. It drew him apart and revealed itself poomnagery to him and made him the brother of all untamed things in na- | ture.” Lauren Harris was another man of the group, but he was of an entirely | different metal from Thompson. He had had training in European schools but forgot it when he returned to Canada.

He was somewhat of a philosopher and believed that the greatest thing an artist can do is to be himself. He had seen various phases of the world and become thrilled with the beauty and was “bitten by the North.” He felt the way of life “demands an interest in what is being done today in our midst, the further- a roe oe ge —— mr - ——— — as painted his magnificent canvases, which are so simplified. “Above Lake Su- perior,” for instance, is boldly decora- tive with all details omitted and. the whole resolved into a new harmony which has the power and the strength of the inevitabie. “Elevator Court” is but a square building set in an en- vironment without a tree or a biade of grass, yet the artist has contrived with the tall upright chimney and the lines of the sky and the snow of the ground to synthesize the whole and produce a profound impression. There ever, in any of his paintings; all is the natural expression of the vision and life of the painter. Arthur Lismer, another of the Group of Seven, paints in an epic fashion and has really made into a choral epic the wind-swept shores of Georgian Bay which is really dramatic. His “Sep- tember Gale” was sent to the exposi- tion of paintings shown in Wembley, England, and was chosen to be pur- chased by the British government for the Tate Gallery. But it was retained and was bought by the Ottawa Gallery, where it aroused a storm of protest for its unconventional handling. No painter has grasped the broad rhythms and harmonious relations of the waves against the shore line and the clouds forming part of the whole as has Lis- mer, The element of art as a necessity in life was the great aim of Lismer and he wrote articles for business men's magazines urging Canadian manufac- turers to originate new designs in tex- tiles, pottery furniture and other man- ufactured products. “Above all,” he said, “give a chance for the creative idea to grow in Canada and trust to the potentialities of Canadians to think artistically and create usefully.” own community. It requires a per- spective that relates near and distant happenings and brings all findings to bear fruit here and now, and a vision that sees that never was anything cre- ated anywhere at afhy time save it was in defiance of all catch-cries, now heres, the now theres of the mo- ment. It sees that life is creative and that peopie live only when they create and that all other activities should “It is blasphemy | | be a means to creation.” And in the fulfillment of this bellef he lived and en imme | Pees oy yo gy . x ——. ————— 4 ; ancl ge RAK Da i‘ we +." “ ee *< » & = ° Peers POD RS scat . Afternoon Sun, Lake Superior, a striking canvas by Lauren Harris. the ~ The Village, painted by H. Mabel May, A. R.C.A. So we can see that the great idea of these artists was to break away from cramping formulas and outworn artis- tic creeds. This is the keynote of their art. It was born from a sincere con- viction that as Canada was a new na- tion and a youthful one, she must no‘ be hampered by the artisitc traditions of Europe. The gentle art of the Barbizon school, soft gray days and misty atmosphere, was not in any way suitable for the crisp air, the stinging cold, the broad spaces of the great North. These men felt with Walt Whit- man that no matter how great, how admirable the men of the past and their work may be, yet, “regarding it all intently and a long while, then dismissing it, I stand in my own place with my own day here.” But their work was laughed at by the press and the public, especially by the press, which really attacked them, accusing them of inoompetency and willful distortion. Yet they won their way and ultimate appreciation, and soon the more intelligent recognized that for Canada to find a true expres- sion for herself she must break with Europe, and that a new type of artist and art was required to express the new age, the new life and new condi- tions of living. When this became es- tablished in their minds the rest was easy, especially when the British press and public were enthusiastic over the paintings sent over to England for the Wembley exhibition. The men weatlr- ered the war and came back stronger, although chastened, The mind of the public naturally was greatly changed and more ready to take a different point: of view toward art as toward life. is nothing forced or eccentric, how- | Then the leaders organized thelr paintings into a traveling group and this was sent out to Europe and various cities in this country, which introduced their paintings to an ever wicer and wider audience, A representative group of these Ca- nadian painters compose the private collection of Mr. Vincent Massey, the Canadian Minister, who is an ardens lover of the arts and a sensitive and Me- telligent connoisseur. He is tremen- dously interested in the developmen’ of this younger group of Canadian painters and believes that art is more and more coming to a very individual and nationalistic expression in the Do- minion. A portrait. group of his two children with their little dog, by R. 8S. Hewton, and a portrait of Mrs. Massey, by the same artist, prove that the por- trait painters can hold their own with the landscapists. Both portraits are vital, painted with great intelligence, works of art as well as good portraits “Afternoon Sun, Lake Superior,”’ by Lauren Harris, gives one an impression of far spaces, water and stark trees that tower toward the sky. There is practically no detall in this painting, but this is not missed; rather, the massed effect of the shore line and the rocks and land jutting out into the lake make a simplified impression that has in it the appeal of the universal, Here is a rhythm of lines, a firm con- Struction and a feeling of nearness to elemental forces that is tremendously impressive. “Spring Ice,” by Tom Thompson, is a delightful symphony in blue and green, but it has the virility and the power of a mind that sees in a way that is not stecped in the mists of the past, but has the fresh vision of the. daring and original man who has found & way to express in an unhampered manner just what he does see. “The Big Rocks, Ben Echo,” by Ar- thur Lismer, has the place of honor in the large drawing room and gives an impression of overpowering strength of the great rocks that soar upward. The richness of the color is like a tapestry for its mingled and varied surface. Fhe huge structure of the rocks springing straight from the water gives a feeling that one is looking at the foundation of the universe. The sincerity of the artist is evident and we are swept glong with him in his admiration of the force and power of these giants. “Georgian Bay,” by F. Horseman Var- ley, is a decorative painting of storm tossed trees by the edge of the bay that are silhouetted against the sky that is Japanese in feeling, but not in their manner of painting, as it is a large canvas and has nothing in it of the diminutive noture of Japanese art. A. Y. Jackson is represented by sev- eral paintings, mostly of Quebec vil- lages and scenes in Alaska, for this artist has drawn his inspiration from the untrodden fields of the far North. But the construction is done with un- compromising artistic fidelity, yet in no way photographic or realistic as that term is usually employed, but filled with the real spirit of the country. Jackson was one of the earliest men who painted with individuality in Canada. When he first saw Georgian Bay he said “Le Bon Dieu made it on a holiday out of sheer joy.” This joy and exuberance he responded to and it is seen in his paintings, espectally in “Winter Road, Quebec,” which tis 89 clear and sparkling that one can al- most feel the deep silence. The road stretches toward the tiny village and the single tracks of the sled with the horses’ hoofs as spots make a decided design with low lines of the hills. “A nation will advance to meet its artists.” This parable of the Group of Seven movement shows that when the soul of a man and the soul of his peo- ple and environment meet, the crea- tive genius of a race bursts into flame. But that is only the beginning of a road without an end. The creative genius of a race or of a man lies in the capacity to respond to the finer things of life—love of nature, love of home, love of people as a whole, love of contact with great minds and great hearts in painting, poetry and music of all peoples and all ages and the love of beauty for its own sake. The denial of this creative genius, national or individual, is the denial of that spirit in man for which the New Testiment says there is no forgiveness, forgiveness being freedom. The message that the Group of Seven art movement gives to this age is the message that “here in the north has arisen a Young nation with faith in its Own creative genius.” So says F. Hauser in “A Canadian Art Movement.” tp io tgs alle al sacl Lo ig BS # Ook ee PER eK letter are will nota!

Soon he Is elected leader of the colony. The colony of Darien is not in the best of condition. Provisions are for- ever running short, and Balboa finds that his resourcefulness is being taxed. Sori-times he persuades nearby Indians to present the colonists with provisions. At other times he carries on a haphaz- ard warfare with the red men, winning by force the food he can not obtain by good will. In general he is far less un- kind toward the natives than mos. Spanish leaders. “The dream of becoming rich by dis- covering gold Balboa does not forget, but he finds little promise of realizing the dream until he visits a large Indian village some distance from Darien. The chief of the tribe is friendly to him and his soldiers. The chief's son looks at the white men with wide-open eyes; they seem like gods to him. How shall he show a mark of honor? An idea comes to him —he goes away and returns with a load of golden ornaments. Balboa and his men are beside them- selves with eagerness. They start to divide the ornaments, but fall into quarrels as to who shall have this one, who shall have that. The chiefs son is amazed. These men whom he thought gods are greedy and quarrelsome. He strikes the orna- ments from the hands of one of the soldiers, crying: “If you care so much for this yellow stuff, why bother about trifles? Look at the mountains over there! Beyond those mountains is a great sea, and beyond the sea is a land where gold is as common as the soil. Why do you not go to that land?” When the words are interpreted to Balboa he is thrilled with a new hope the voyage until the Gulf of Darien of fame and fortune. If he can find a " { sea beyond the land he will do what no Spaniard has done before him; and if he can reach the land of gold the object of his desire will be attained. Returning to Darien, Balboa musters a band of 200 soldiers and sets out for the adventure. The party is joined y friendly Indians who serve as guides, Through the wild country separating them from the mountain top they force their way. Over hills and valleys they struggle onward, often having to cut through dense growths of trees and shrubs, sometimes being able to cover not more than a mile from sunrise to sunset. . It is near the end of November, in the year 1513. The Indians tell Balboa that the great sea can %e scen from 4a peak just ahead. Wishing to be the first to look upon the séa, he orders his men to wait while he goes up alone, Gaining the peak of Darien, he catches sight of the mighty ocean which is one day to bear the name of Pacific. From where he stands he sees that the water is to the south of him. Not know- ing that it stretches thousands of miles to the west, he decides that it shall be called the South Sea. Two centuries before, Marco Polo and his kindred sailed the China Sea, rounded the Malay peninsula, “discov- ered’’—in the white man’s sense—the western side of the Pacific; but Balboa, first white man on the eastern side of the Pacific—does not connect Marco Polo with the sight before him. He feels that he is the discoverer of a new and mighty sea. After his comrades join him Balboa descends to the coast av7 wades into th: water up to his knees, claiming the sea for the King of Spain. The water seems to stretch for miles untold. Even the stout heart of Bale boa is not equal to building ships at t:.:s time in order to make the crossing and obtain the gold of which he has heard. That, he thinks, must walt for | another day.

You intneirown company and begin think- |} ing they are great finds. That's be- | cause you have been seeing poorer | baseball for some time. But, just as ; soon aS you have seen a few major | league games, you realize the difference | of play and your’ sense of values is restored.” Another interesting fact which Engel brings out is that often a scout is Sent to look at one player and, while on the job discovers another who is better. “It's an odd game any way you take it,” he says, “and it is a case of many being called and few be- | chosen. I don’t know what the statistics are on the subject, or even if there are any, but, off-hand, I'd Say only about one out of twenty | rookies make the big league grade on their first trial. | “In my own case, I have my share | of bad guesses, but I can say, this much: I’ve always been able to ped- dle off my ‘lemons’ and the Washing- ton Club has. lost practically no money on any of the deals I have put through. Among Engel’s discoveries who have made good may be mentioned In- flelders Stanley Harris, Jack Hayes, Os- sie Bluege, Joe Cronin, Buddy Myer and Bob Reeves; Pitchers Fred Mar- berry, Bob Burke, Lloyd Brown, Alvin | Crowder, Paul Zahnizer, Horace Lisen- bee and Win Ballou; Catchers Val | Picinich, Ed Gharrity, Bennie Tate and | Roy Spencer; Outfielders Earl McNeely, Bing Miller, Sam West and Emile Barnes; while he also had a hand in the obtaining of Joe Judge, now oap- it, ’ | %4 o | | i | | !

Although Slugging Goose outfielder, Goslin, who the won Nats’ the ; , ae American League batting championship | | last season, was obtained by the Wash- | | Janvrin, a second baseman we didn’t | ‘ington Club during Engel’s regime as scout, President Griffith was. the one who discovered him. Two days before Goslin was bought. by the Nationals, he was passed up by the scout of another big league club. The “Wild Goose of the Potomac” was performing with the Columbia Team, of the South Atlantic League, and the “ivory hunter’ was looking him over at Charlotte. In the very first inning, a fly was sent Goslin’s way and he lost | it in the sun and the ball hit him on | top of the head. “I’ve just got time | to make the 4:35 train for home,” yawned the scout glancing at his watch, | after seeing this fielding bit, and he |hustled for the station. Later tn that same game the Goose hit two home runs and-a double. Griffith, who already had Goslin in mind as a prospect, went to Balti- more the next day to golf in the after- noon and play bridge that evening. While he was shuffling the paste- boards, an official of the Baltimore ‘Club happened to drop in and remark that the Orioles had just heard of an outfielder named Goslin, who was breaking down the fences with his long drives in the “Sally” League, and that they had wired an offer for him. The Nat owner immediately excused himself, hustled to a telephone and wired the Columbia Club not to dis- pose of Goslin until he had a chance to see him, promising to be at Green- ville, where the team was playing, the following day. In that game, Goslin, who was one of the worst” fielders imaginable when he first started in the professional game, made two errors, but he also hit a home run, triple and double. Griffith did not even wait for the game to end, closing the deal which made the Goose a National in the seventh inning. Columbia asked $7,500 for him, but the Nat owner got him for a little less. Another regular with the present Washington Team came in a rather un- / usual manner, the gentleman in ques- | tion being Pitcher Irving Hadley. After | leaving Brown University, Hadley was | performing sensationally for one of the | mill teams around his home in Lynn, | Mass. His work caught the eye of | Jack Chesbro, a great pitcher in his time, and he wired President Griffith and was told to send the youngster to | the Tampa training camp. | This was in the spring of 1926, and | Hadley not only reported but showed enough to be retained. He wanted a larger salary than usually is paid to rookies, at the suggestion of the owner of the mills on which team Hadley played. Hadley’s “patron saint” finally rounded up the pitcher's father and the two showed up at Tampa one morning to get in the salary discussion. Meanwhile, Hadley had received some better offers and it looked as though he might quit the Nats. The mill owner, who had met Manager Harris and his players, finally brought matters to &a head. “What’s the difference between what ts offered you and what you want?” he asked Hadley. “A thousand dollars,” said Hadley. “Well,” he sald, “this seems to be a team of gentlemen and I'd like to see you play on it. Go ahead and sign with Washington and I'll pay you the $1,000 myself.” And that’s how Hadley was signed. The cases of Goslin and Hadley are exceptional, however, and Scout Engel does not get off so lightly as a gene eral rule. One of his longest “wild goose” chases—and this has erence to Goose Goslin—was to Glide den, Iowa, where Joe went on the ad- vice of a friend who told him of 6 phenomenal left-handed pitcher play- ing semipro ball there. He had struck Out 21 men in one game and 23 the next day, a record which no good scout could afford to overlook. “The town was so small that I had to have the train flagged to get it to stop,” said Engel, telling of his trip, “and when I got there I found that the pitcher was a little shrimp only 5 feet 3 inches tall and 40 years old. I managed to get away that night, but I had to burn some paper on the track to get the train to stop and take me on. “This scouting is a great racket,” said Joe as a parting shot. “It’s like coaching at third base. If you guess right, nobody says anything and you get no credit, but if you happen #0. guess wrong—Oh, boy!” s } . ‘ ' j i j ! <ceeenetiasct Cl TT 1 ahi pal DOE 82.

Dundas Slater, manager of the Alhambra. It was a lucky day for Houdini, and also for Day, who sub- sequently became Houdini’s manager. Slater allowed Houdini to give some trial performances, but he was not wholly convinced of his ability. “If you can escape from handcuffs at Scotland Yard, I'll sign you,’ he eaid. “Can you go with me Houdini’s reply. At London’s famous police heac- quarters, Superintendent Melville ridi- culed the idea that anyone could escape from Scotland Yard handcuffs. Stage handcuffs were one thing, he told now ?” Slater, but Scotland Yard handcuffs ‘were the last word in § scientific manacles. Houdini, however, insisted upon trying them; 60, suddenly, Mel- ville produced a pair of cuffs. “Well, here’s how we fasten Yankee criminals who come over here and get into trouble,” he remarked. With that he encircled Houdini's arms around a Pillar, snapped on a pair of “darbies” and stepped back with a laugh. “I’m going to leave you here and come back in a couple of hours for you,” he said. He started toward the door with Slater. “Wait!” cried Houdini. “Ill go with you. Here's the way the Yankees open the handcuffs.” He tossed the cuffs to the floor and stepped away from the pillar. Superintendent Melville was shocked and visibly nonplused, but in a minute he held out his hand. “Scotland Yard won't forget you, young man,” he said. There was no longer any question with Slater about an engagement. He drove Houdimi back to the office and &igned him for two weeks. Houdini's opening night was eventful. As soon ag his act began, a stranger calling himself “The Great Ctrnoc” Was | the leaped on the stage, proclaiming him- eelf the original Handcuff King, and denounced Houdini as a fraud. The man even declared that Houdini was not an American and had never been in the United States. At that point a man in the audi- ence stood up. “That is not true,” he said. “I know that young man is an American. I also am an American and I saw him several years ago doing his handcuff | act.” : The speaker was Chauncey M. Depew. |'He resumed his seat amid applause, land this reenforcement completely re- | Stored Houdini’s equilibrium. “Get me ithe Bean Giant,” he whispered to his wife, who was on the stage dressed as |a page. “We'll fix this fellow now.” The Bean Giant was a monster hand- cuff invented by a Capt. Bean, of Boston. The cuff was made in such a way that it seemed a sheer impossi- btlity for anyone once fastened with \it to apply a key or any other device to unlock it. Capt. Bean had offered $500 to anyone who could release him- \self from the cuff. For a long time | the cuff remained invincible, until ‘Houdini blew into Boston and solved ‘its secret in a few minutes. He | forfeited the $500, however, by refusing ito explain his method. Now, Houdini advanced upon Cirnoc ‘holding out the Bean Giant, and of- ‘fered the alleged Handcuff King $500 if he could golve the secret of the cuffs | and free himself. Cirnoc frowned upon the formidable manacles. “Tet me see you get out of them,’ he said, “Lock me in,” challenged Houdin!}. Cirnoc did so; whereupon Houdini retired to his little cabinet and in a twinkling emerged with his hands free. It was then Cirnoc’s turn. Houdini locked him in the cuffs and even gave him the key, but the man was unable to rid himself of the bonds, The au- dience gave Houdini an ovation, and Cirnoc, discomfited, had to ask Hou- dini to release him. J owever, with a show of sportmanship he shook Hou- dini’s hand before he left the stage. ‘With this dramatic beginning Hou-| dint proceeded to make @ smashing bit. His engagement, begun early in July, | was extended to the last week in Au-| gust, and was terminated onl Cause he had accepted several bookings in Germany. Each succeeding perform- ance was of increased interest, for Houdini was a challenge to professional | restrainers of all Kinds, as well as to the amateur detectives of the press. Many persons brought irons and man- acles to the theater—in all a rich and varied assortment—to test the prowess of the young handcuff King. At first Houdini released himself within a small | tent, but this evoked some criticism. Doubting Thomases among the on- | lookers suspected that the tent con-| cealed sefret help of some kind. So one. night Houdini dramatically ordered the | tent removed. He had police challen- gers place manacles and fetters on him and fasten them together behind his back with another handcuff so that he) was forced to a kneeling position. His | only stipulation was that he be al-| lowed to keep his hands out of sight, of the spectators. Then, on his Knees, facing the big, silent house on open stage, he freed himself in five minutes. Before Houdini left he was for the holiday mid-December. His first coniinental opening was at the Central Theater, Dresden, where | he was to appear for the month of September, 1900. The Herr Direktor, Gustav Kammsetzer, was a cautious man, and he was suspicious of reputa- tions made in England. Before Houdini went on the director explained to hfm, | in broken English, that the Gcrman audiences expressed their disapproval by whistling. “If de public vistles, you don’t finish de act,” was his parting admonition. “Now you vork; I vatch.” Houdini started with the handcuffs and after his first escape the entire au- dience rose cheering. The Herr Direk- tor became so excited that he ran out to the center of the stage and led the ap- plause. Toward the end of the month the en- thusiastic Herr Direktor, conscious of the fact that Houdini’s run had broken all records for paid admissions to his theater, was wiring frantically to the‘ — er _ reengaged | season, beginning in | audiences management of the Wintergarten, Ber- lin, where Houdini was scheduled to appear through October, appealing for another month of Houdini. Dresden’s request was refused. Houdini moved on to the Wintergarten and every night the huge establishment was packed to the doors. In order to keep Houdini through November, the Win- tergarten paid Roanacher’s where he was booked for that month, a forfeit of 4,000 marks. On returning to the Alhambra, Lon- don, in December, Houdin! found him- self featured even above the famous ballet. Every day a dozen sandwich men plodded in parade along Pall Mall bearing huge posters with the magic words, “Houdini—Alhambra,” in brave display. “Not bad for Dime Museum Harry,” wrote Houdini in his diary. By this time Houdini was growing painfully homesick for his mother. felt that he could longer without having her there to be- hold his name blazoned in letters of fir> in front of the famous theaters; to gaze upen the packed, enthusiastic and have her heart warmed by his newly won honors, The main difficulty was that of ex- pense. Houdini was fast becoming the sensation of the great European halls, but he had not yet cashed in on his success. Not naturally a shrewd Dar- gainer, he was still working for com- paratively small salaries. Yet he wanted his mother, and his longing took concrete shape one day toward the end of January, 1901, when he saw in a London shop window a model of a gown that Lad been origi- nally designed for Queen Victoria, who had died January 22. The gown, he estimated, was about his mother’s size. Houdini marched into the shop and offered to buy it. The shopkeeper was somewhat shocked—one did not really sell her majesty’s relics. However, when Hou- dini assured the man that he wanted it for his mother, the shopkeeper agreed to sell it for £50, with the stipu- lation that it must never.be worn by any one in Great Britain. “As I walked out with that dress in Vienna, He | not go on much | my possession,” Houdini noted in late? — years, “I would not have exchange@ places with any crowned head world.” h He immediately wrote to his mothe§ urging her to pay him a visit and hold ing out the fair promise of a huge ang interesting surprise.

It rouuces enlarged pores to the finest, smoothest texture almost a5 if by mazic. Being astringent, it drives away the tell-tale signs of age. You will marvel at the effect of your firs. five-minute fa- cial massage. It rejuve- mates the skin so quickly that any woman can 100k lovey tonight, years young¢cr. It's marvelous how magnesia disso:ves blackheads, clears erup- tions and corrects oily skin. And because it is so mild, mothers use it instead of soap to bathe infants. It certainly is a blessing as a face wash for fine, sensitive skins that soap so easily irritates and coarsens. Being grease- less, it can not fatten the face or grow hair. It removes make-up and extracts impurities deep-set in the pores better than soap or cold cream. It changes dull, sallow off- color skin to true-color clearness and fades out freckles better than a bushel of lemons. Test it on those clogged nose pores that stand out so bo'd'y. Let it whiten your neck. It will also keep your hands soft and white. Until recently, creamed magnesia was used only by New York doctors’ wives, and nurses. But now the large druggists every- where find it hard to keep enough on hand to supply the demand. To get genu- ine creamed magnesia, ask for Denton’s Facial Mag- nesia. Remember, five minutes works wonders. So, get your magnesia to- day and look lbevely to- night. It costs almost nothing totry. It’s Guar- anteed! DENTON'S CREMED e / ‘ff / Sie Makes poor skin lovely—keeps fine skin fine NOTE: Do not hesitate to try this marvelous skin treatment at once. Thousands of delighted women have written they could not believe anything so simple could be so wonderful.

PETER HELCK ie SAVE MILLIONS OF TONS OF COAL EVERY YEAR Putting lazy rivers to work for you A great river slips quietly down to sea. No roaring falls or churning cataracts reveal its giant’s strength. But hidden in that sluggish current is the power of one hundred and fifty mammoth locomotives! Huge hydro-electric generators capture that vast invisible surge of energy and— A miflien homes are flooded with cheerful light. Fleets of electric trains race with time. Machines grind in busy factories. Elevators rise in city towers. Furnaces glow with intense heat. The lazy river is at work . . . delivering comfort and convenience to men and women . .. powering and controlling the tools of industry. Today, American hydro-electric plants develop energy totaling more than twelve million horse- power. It is estimated that they enable public utility manage- ment to save nearly thirty-one -> Worino :- a million tons of coal a year. And more and larger units are being constructed all the time. The name of Westinghouse has ever been in the foreground of hydro-electric development. Thirty-four years ago Westinghouse installed at Niagara Falls the forerunner of all modern large-scale hydro-electric generators. Recently, Westinghouse has made more history by completing three of the generators that sur- pass in size any previous apparatus of this kind. Westinghouse From the generation of power to its ultimate Jatrasatiterteteye operat application Westinghouse responsibility runs the entire course. Stokers and steam turbines, switchboard and transmission equipment, motors, and modern lighting are Westinghouse aids toward the production of cheaper power and its more effective application in homes, offices, railways, ships, factories, mills and mines.
