AVERAGE CAR’S AGE CALLED 1714 YEARS Hanna Denies Undue Pad- ding of Accounts to Bolster Plea for Higher Rates. — — The Capital Traction Co. yesterday told the. Public Utilities Commission that although it had insisted on the use of reproduction new costs in valuing its property between the yeats 1914 and_1925, when prices rose sharply, it has, during the last three years, when prices have remained about level or declined, increased its valuation claims by adding capital additions at actual cost. This increase has amounted to ‘$223,264.72 since the District Court of Appeals fixed the valuation of the company, on a reproduction new the- ory, at $25,756,880 as of January 1. 1925. The company claims e@ valua- tion ,of $26,080,144.72 as of Decem- ber 31, 1928, and this is the basig of its claim for a 10-cent cash fare with four tokens for 30 cents for itself and its competitor. The change in the valuation methods used by the company was emphasized by G. Thomas Dunlop, at- *53* forthe company, in the eouree of the second day of the public hear- <ing before the V on the higher-fare. pet _ Hartman Queries ‘thinenged,’ — challenged questions asked ef company witnesses by Commis- sioner Harleigh H. Hartman, vice chairman of the utilities commission, and Hartman said that the purpose ~“6f his questions was to give the com- mission some information on repro- duction costs so that it could take these costs into consideration in line with court. decisions. There was a brief colloquy which ended with Dun- lop objecting to the questions as not pertinent and irrelevant. Chairman Patrick overruled the objection and Dunlop noted the usual exception. John ‘H. Hanna, president of the company, who was a joint witness throughout the day with J. E. Heberle, accounting chief of the com- pany, also emphagized the same point in replying to another question put by Hartman that “the net result is that you do not know the repro- duction value.” Hanna said the com- pany knew what the new additions . to its properties had cost and that was all the information needed as to reproduction costs. The hearing yesterday began with @ battle of oratory and lega] argu- ment over the question of accep of the record of the former effort of the Capital Traction to get higher fares. Rule Against Company. As had been expected the commis- sion ruled against the company con-~- tention that it w&s privileged to bring ‘into use any part of the old record it saw fit whether there was objection ‘or not. The argument over this was extended and warm.’ ~ Chairman Patrick called on Cor- poration Counsel William W Bride to state his recollection and interpreta- tion of the agfeement with which the former hearings were ended. The 1925 court valuation was a part of the old record and it was over the insertion of this in the record of the present case that the contest began at the hearings on Monday. Bride said that the old agreement did not contemplate either side giving up any of its legal rights, but that the old record should be available for Claim to Precedence Upheld by Mrs. Gann Recognition Demanded as Mark of Respect to U.

Philadelphia, July 30 (AP.).—Mrs. Dolly Curtis Gann, sister of Vice Pres- ident Curtis, in an interview appear- ing in the August issue of the Ladies Home Journal, talks frankly on the question of precedence which has been agitatihg the official and social sides of the National Capital for some time. Mrs. Gann says the Vice President is entertained at oficial affairs as “a symbol of the United States," and any demand is not. asked for as an indi- vidual, but in the name of every true American who wishes respect shown to a symbol of his Government. Explaining that a very generous fraction of the Vice Presitdent’s duties and responsibility are purely social, Mrs. Gann asks two questions: Who is to attend to all the social part? and Who attends to the social side. of things in your home? “Any woman knows,” she says, “what portion of the social duty in a precedence he may expect, ask for or |; MRS.

GANNON CALLED ON TD EXPLAIN LOANS Tinkham Asks Bishop Whose Meney Was Spent in Fi ght on Smith, = EXPENSE REPORT SILENT Representative — Holden Tink- ham. (Republican), Massachusetts, yesterday called tipon Bishop James Cannon, jr., chairman of the Board of Temperance and Social Service of the M. E. Church, South, to explain certain unidentified loans and also loans accredited to him, listed in the campaign expense repurns of the Anti-Smith Democrats of Virginia. The representative’s request was prompted by Bishop Cantion’s recent statement denying he had two loans, totaling $5,000, to the Anti-Smith cause during the last presidential campaign. : Citing the certified expense re- turns, filed with the clerk of the House of Representatives, Tinkham pointed out that in an account filed November 3, there appears an entry marked “Loans $1,950” without ex- planatian of the source. On the dis- bursement side of this account, he said, Bishop Cannon’s name appears only once for “traveling . expense $284.” In the fourth return, filed January 2, he continued, receipts totaled $10,647.25 of which $7,709.45 was rep- resented by loans from undisclosed source. “Bishop Cannon's traveling ex- penses rfna along through November, and on November 19 appeared the entry ‘payment on loan $1,426.50,’” the representative said. “On the same date was the entry ‘Board of Tem- perance and Social Service for cleri- cal help, $600," and on December 4 another entry of $1,122.25. “On February 15 a supplemental report was filed covering the period from January 1 to February 11. The unidentified loans still continued. The entries were as follows: ‘Jan- fuary 7, loan $80; January 14, loan $100; January 22, loan $171; January 29, loam $100; February 9, loan $672.51."

HOOVER APPROVES NOTE! — * The aftermath’ of a débt ertets; averted by the French government, came yesterday with announcement at the Treasury of a letter from Séc- retary Mellon informing France that the Secretary “with the approval of the President hereby agrees with the French Republic” to postponement of France’s payment to this country of $400,000,000 for postwar supplies. The unique settlement, effected in the promise of a Cabinet member with presidential approval in advance of approval by Congress, came two days before the debt was due, after a last-minute approval of the Mellon- Berenger postponement agreement by the French Parliament, followed by Premier Peincare’s retirement because of ill health and the succession of Aristide Briand to the premiership for the twelfth time. Mr. Mellon’s letter, dated July 29, and addressed -to French Ambassador Paul Claudel, had the following in the lower left-hand corner after the signature: “Approved: Herbert Hoover, Presi- dent.” An answer from Ambassador Clau- del also dated Monday, said that the French government accepts “the con- ditions expressed in your communica- tion.” The debt postponement lost in Congress when Senate approval of the resolution on the day of congres-" sional adjournment reached the House too late for the Speaker to affix his signature after the House had ex- pressed its intention by approving the measure before: minor readjustments in conference. “It is my expectation,” Secretary Mellon wrote, “that the Mellon- Berenger agreement will receive con- sideration at an early date.” Secretary Mellon’s letter follows: “July 29, 1929. “My Dear Mr. Ambassador: “The agreemeht between. the Prench republic and the United States, known as the Mellon-Berenger CONTINUED ON PAGE 12, COLUMN 4.

COST OF BALLOTS MAY DECIDE RULE A. A. A. Members _ Say Views on Turns Unso- licited by Organization. HASTEN TO GIVE IDEAS UTTERANCE No Special Turns Fostered by Post in Poll; All Eligible to Vote. LEFT TURN BALLOT The total number of ballots cast up to yesterday in The Post poli to determine the preference of local motorists as to the most desirable method of making a left turn, yes- terday stood at 2,441. The vote was divided as follows: Turn No.1 Turn No, 2 1,305 167 hurn No.3 969 By WILLIAM ULLMAN. Farther out in front than it has been at any time during The Post referendum, the present rotary left turn appears more and more to be the one that most Washingtonians desire. That at least is the story told by the balloting up to yesterday noon, when Turn No, 1, the method now practiced at all controlled intersec- tions, took a commanding lead with 1.306. votes cagt in its favor. Turn No. 2, designated as the com-~- promise between the rotary and the uniform prartide, received only 16 ad- ditional votes, bringing ite total % 167, Turn No. 3, the Hoover code method, gained 155 advocates, thereby increasing its strength to 969 votes. These are the unvarnished facts which The Post has no intention to modify in any respect, since it seeks not to force any particular method, but only has advocated uniformity from the start. It was made clear in launching its pol] that The Post sought only to carry the case to the people and let them indicate their pjeference. Pedestrians May Vote. This, despite the acrusation leveled at The Post by an official of the American Automobile Association yes- terday that this newspaper is endeav- oring to “put over” the type of turn designated on the ballot as No. 1, in deferende to the wishes of the traffic office. This, of course, is emphat- ically not the case, for The Post from the start has favored the uniform type advocated by the National Con- ference on Street and Highway Safety. The Post, however, in calling for a vote by the people of Washington, has insisted that they be free to express their individual preferences, and that is the basis on which the referendum will continue to a finish. Attention has been called to the desire of many pedestrians to express their opinions by ballot. Many of them have inquired -whether they could vote. The answer is decidedly in the affirmative, since the purpose is to obtain the sentiment of all who are affected by the traffic regulations. and pedestrians, no less than “notor- ists, fall into that class. The Post, therefore, again invites pedestrians to fill out the ballot dnd mail it in to be counted. In their enthusiasm to vote, a num- ber of voters have failed to mark the ballot so as to indicate the particular left turn favored. In all, there have been fifteen failures to do so.

DEFENOE Rebuke to Commander of Legion Is Intimated in Letter. BRITISH ACCEPTANCE OF PRINCIPLE NOTED Great Britain Has Agreed to American View, Is Reminder. NATION’S PROTECTION TO BE INSISTED UPON Misinformation Is Seen as Basis of McNutt Naval Strength Demand. By CARLISLE BARGERON. Naval parity means a “complete de- fense of the Umited States in any contingency,” President Hoover de- clared yesterday in a letter to Paul V. McNutt, national commander of the American Legion. The President replied to a warning issued by the national commander several days ago that the Legion demanded an Amer- ican Navy equal to that of Great Britain. The Legion commander’s statement, prompted by the President’s an- nouncement that work would be held up on three cruisers authorized by Congress, also carried an implied challenge to t*e President's au- thority to take such action. Hoover, speaking for the first time since his statement that raised such a con- troversy, rather intimated that the Legion cOmmander had spoken too quickly. His letter was interpreted not only as a rebuke “for, the jon com- mander, but ‘other criti of his policy. There is rather the sugges- tion that if what he has in mind were fully understood, and which it is rather difficult for him to make known, that the criticism would be found to be unwarranted. Cooperation Need Implied. The letter also implies that the Legion should cooperate with him in- stead of trying to embarrass him. The big accomplishment of his negotiations with Premier MacDon- ald, which he apparently thinks has been lost sight of in the rush to take exception to the holding up of work on the three cruisers, is that Great Britain for the first time accep*s this country’s interpretation of -par- ity. “Il am glad to have your assurance that the American Legion supports the policy of parity for our Navy with that of Great Britain,” Mr. Hoo- ver wrote the legion commander. “This principle igs enunciated by our naval authorities as a complete defense of the United States in any contingency and defense is al] that We seck.

AUTO DUTIES REDUCED The veil of secrecy surrounding the actions of Republican members of the Senate finance committee with respect to the Hawley-Smoot Tariff bill was ripped apart yesterday by Senator Couzens (Republican), of Michigan. As a result it was revealed that the committee today reached the following decisions: The existing duty of 25 per cent ad valorem on automobiles and motor trucks is to be retained byt the countervailing provision in the pres- ent law and in the House bill was stricken out. This means, stibstan- tially a reduction from an average of about 32 per cent ad valorem to 25 per cent. Shingles are restored to the free list, the 25 per cent ad valorem rate specified by the House bill having been rejected, Logs of fir, spruce, cedar, or western hemlock, upon which the House bill and the present law pro- vide a duty of $1 per thousand feet, are placed on the free list and the provision for retaliatory duties on these commodities are eliminated from the bill. Mapie and birch boards, planks, clapboards, ceiling and ship timber are placed on the free list, the Senate committee members refusing to accept the House duty of 15 per cent ad valorem. This duty was re- taine¢ on hardwood flooring because of the 25 per cent duty now imposed by Canada upon similar American products. Senator Couzens served notice on his Republican colleagues on the finance committee that hereafter he would not be bound by the injunc- tion of secrecy laki upon the major- ity members when they began their closed sessions last week. He reserves the right to communicate to his constituents any action taken in the secret sessions and has already fol- lowed this course with respect to several of the items heretofore men- tioned Liquidation of Bonds Of Philippines Urged Governor General Dwight F.

The surplus funds for the year were $6,589,.635.73. The liquidation of this bond issue will relieve the islands of ‘a heavy interest rate. The bonds were nag aa in 30 years, but redeemable years. The ability of the Philippine government to redeem the bonds within ten years is said to be evidence of the excellent financial condition of the government. VIRGINIA YOUTH, 18, DROWNS IN POTOMAC Boy, Unable to Swim, Dies Near Anchor Inn as Canoe Capsizes. RESCUE EFFORTS FUTILE Unable to swim, 18-year-old Lionzy Brown, of aPrk Lane, Va., last night was drowned in the waters of the Potomac River near Anchor Inn when the canoe in which he and a com- panion were paddling up the river capsized. Vernon R. Payne, 17 years old, of Park Lane, Brown's companion, strove frantically to save his friend, but the latter, fully clothed, sank before Payne could reach his sitie. J. B. Lyon, 28 years ola, of 1221 Hamilton street northwest. who wit- nessed the accident, which occurred about 25..yards from the float at Anchor Inn, dived repeatedly in the 12 feet of water and after ten minutes recovered Brown's body. Capt. “Will” Reynolds, veteran river man, and Policeman Charles Birkigt, of the Harbor Precinct, who patrols the upper Potomac River, arrived at Anchor Inn with a pulmoter and other first aid equipment a few minutes after the boy's body was re- covered Reynolds and Birkigt, aided by several Red Cross members who were up the river at the time, en- deavored to resuscitate Brown while waiting the arrival of No 1 Rescue Squad of the Fire Department. Members of the rescue squad, with Drs. E. S. Lyddane and C. E. Kennedy, of Georgetown Hospital, worked from 8:30 o’clock until 10 o’clock Dr. Lyd- dane then pronounced him dead. The body was removed to the District Morgue in the Harbor Precinct police launch. Payne told police the canoe capsized when he moved from his position in the bow of the frail craft to get a box of matches. Brown, why was pad- dling im the stern, made a grab for the side of the canoe, but missed the rail. He was thrown head first into the water. When he arose, he was about 5 feet away from the swamped boat and sank before Payne could reach his side. Brown is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Noble L. Brown, four brothers and a sister.

Cotton Prices Recover. “Cotton prices declined about $2.50 a bale last month, but recovered dur- ing the third week in July. On the whole prospects for agriculture ap- pear to be fairly good in the Fifth district this year, although wet and cool weather retarded growth and prevented proper cultivation of many fields, “Retail trade in June, in so far as reflected in department store sales, was better than in June, 1928, and aggre- gate sales during the first half of this year exceeded sales in the first half of 1928, but wholesale trade in June was less than in June last year in all lines for which figures are available except shoes.” In a summary of Reserve Bank oper- ations in the district, the review states: “During the month ended July 15, 1929, the demand for Reserve Bank credit increased, and rediscounts for member banks held by the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond rose from $54,753,000 on June 15 to $58,931,000 on July 15. Total earning assets of the Reserve Bank declined during the month, however, from $63,451,000 to $62,191,000, due to a reduction in the holdings of bankers’ acceptances pur- chased in the open market. Effect of Small Currency. “The introduction of the new gma!] size currency on July 10 raised the circulation of Federal Reserve notes materially and also lowered the mem- ber banks’ reserve accounts to some extent, both of these changes probably being of temporary nature. Between June 15 and July 15 the circulation of Federal Reserve notes rose from $66,- 679,000 to $75,250,000, and member bank reserve deposits declined from $70,693,000 to $65,696,000, having reached the lowest point for several years. “The several changes in the state- ment mentioned above, with others of less importance, raised the cash re- serves of the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond from $82,721,000 on June 15 to $89,874,000 on July 15, and brought the ratio of cash reservés to note and deposit Nabilities combined “up from 59.83 per cent last month to 62.92 at the middle of July. “In comparison with figures shown on the Reserve Bank statement on July 15, 1928, those for the correspond- ing date this year show an increase in rediscounts for member banks from $56,678,000 to $58,931,000, but the total earning assets of the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond declined during the year from 867,301,000 to $62,191,- 000, the reduction being caused by de- creased investments in open market paper this year. The circulation of Federal Reserve notes rose from $53,- 626,000 on July 15, 1928, to $75,250,- 000. Member bank reserve deposits rose slightly during the year, from $64,871,000 on July 15, 1928, to 665,- 696,000 on July 15, 1929. The cash reserves of the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond stood at $60,055,000 at the middle of July a year » but totaled $89,874,000 on July 45 this year, and the ratio of cash reserves to note and deposit lMabilities combined increased from 50.49 per cent to 62.92 per cent during the year.” Funeral Is Conducted For Mrs. Mary Schenk Special to The Washington Post.

PAY BOARD ADVIota GENERAL INGREAOE Advances Over Schedules of 1908 Range From 58 to 105 Per Cent. — — — — — CIVIL WAGES COMPARED The Interdepartmental Pay Board which convened in April to harmon- ize the pay schedules of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Coast Guard, Coast and Geodetic Survey and Pub- lic Health Service has recommended that Congress increase the pay for the entire personnel of these branches. of the Government service. The board grouped the personnel into four classifications for ite study— officers, warrant officers, nurses and enlisted men. The average increases in pay for these groups range from 58 per “cent for the officers to 105 per cent for the nurses over the schedules enacted in 1908 which were Made the basis of the report. The actual increases asked for of- leers and enlisted men over their present pay is 44 and 25 per cent re- spectively. This is because they are being paid under schedules that were legislated in 1922 whereas the nurses and thé warrant officers are still re- ceiving pay under the 1908 schedules. Should Congress adopt the recom- mendations of the Pay Board it would mean that all allowances would be eliminated and rental deducted where officers occupy governmental quar- ters; that a base pay would be estab- lished for each grade; that pay would be based upon responsibility, and that in so far ag practicable no junior would receive more pay than a senior. The board further recommended that “until such time as the widely varying systems of promotion in use in the several services and the actual advancement of personnel thereunder shall be more nearly.uniform, in- creases in pay in the grades of sec- ond lMeutenant to major inclusively and corresponding grades in the other services be based on total length of commissioned service rather than on service in grade. Private Life. Pay Compared. “This temporary departure from Principle is necessary, it was ex- plained, in order that officers whose promotion is delayed may avoid stag- nation in pay as well as in promo- tion while remaining in one grade, and that such officers may not he required to begin at the base pay for the next grade upon promotion thereto after a prolonged delay. “Increments on the base pay in the grade of colonel and lieutenant colonel and similar grades in the other branches have been based upon length of service in those grades, with, however, a compensating pro- vision for officers’ delay in promotion in reaching those grades. Without this. provision, officers whose promo- tion to the grades of lieutenant colonel and colonel was materially delayed, it was pointed out, would frequently not be able to reach the higher rates of pay and the disparity in pay received by an officer in a service where promotion is regular and an officer in a service where pro- motion is delayed would become un- duly great.” The board has prepared the new schedules “after a careful consider- ation of the principles of pay legis- lation in connection with existing conditions in the several services, of the present status of governmental and commercial salaries, of the sched- ules of pay for the military services enacted in 1908 and of the changes in economic standards and in the value of the dollar.” The board believes that ‘the sched- ules proposed for the officers are gen- erally proportionate to that of cor- responding positions in civil life. Base Pay Recommended. The base pay recommended for the various commissioned grades in the Army and corresponding ranks in the other branches are: Major gen- erals, $14,000; brigadier genera!s, $12,- 000; colonels, $10,200, with an addi- tional $300 after three rs’ service in the grade; lieutenant colonels, $8,700, with an additional $300 for each three years in that grade, not to exceed $9,600; majors, $6,000, with an additional $300 for each three years of commissioned service to a maximum of $8,400; captain, $5,100, with an increase of 00 for each three years of commissioned service; first lieutenant, $4,000 and $400 addi- tional for each three years of com- missioned gervice; and second lieu- tenants, $3,000, with a $400 increase for each three years of commissioned service. Officers temporarily serving in afies corresponding to general and fleutenant general would receive ad- ditional pay of $3,000 and $1,500, re- spectively, per annum under the pro; posed schedules, while the comman- dant of the Coast Guard, the director of the Coast and Geodetic Survey and the surgeon general of the health service —* receive the pay of @ major general. lh — otters ee ~ ades ate ass —8 and fubolabed fue] and —*8 e board has —* that a it CANNON CALLED ON TO EXPLAIN LOANS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. non, jr., donation of E.

In concluding his lengthy public statement, the representative declared that, “In light of the public record a substantial portion indicates that Bishop Cannon was the financial mainstay of the anti-Smith Demo- crats of Virginia, up to the time that the $17,000 ‘donation’ was received from E. C. Jameson, of New York, last February, and in light of Bishop Cannon’s own recent indignant de- nials I believe that the public will be interest to know (1) whether the unidentified loans in the _ returns were made by Bishop Cannon and, if not, from whence the money came; (2) whether the loans credited to Bishop Cannon were his own per- sonal funds and, if not, whose funds they were.” genera] officer grades, $1,800: colonels and eutenant colonels, $1,500; majors, $1,320; captains, $1,080; first lieutenants, $840; second lieutenants, $600; commissioned warrant officers, $600; warrant officers, $480. In the case of werrant and com- missioned warrant officers, the board has recommended the discontinuance of subsistence allowances established by law. Warrant officers of the Army (except those of the Army Mine Planter Service), Navy Marine Corps and Coast Guard would receive a base pay of $2,550 yearly from the date of warrant, with an increase of $150 per annum for each three years of service in any grade in any of the services, not exceeding 30 years Warrant Officers’ Schedule, Warrant officers of the Army Mine Planter Service would receive from $2.500 to $3,000, with increases each three years of service of $150. Com- missioned warrant officers of the Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard would receive $3,900 a year when commissioned with increases of $300 a year for each three years of com- missioned service not to exceed 21 years. The proposed schedule would effect a mean increase of pay of 87 per cent for warrant officers and 113 per cent for the commissioned war- rant officers over the 1908 pay sched- ule. The report of the. pay board recom- mended that the “exjsting discrep- ancies between tre pay of the en- listed men of the several services be removed” and that “a single pay schedule applicable to all services be instituted with salaries ranging from $21 a month for the seventh grade to $150 a month for the first grade for the first enlistment.” There would be a 10 per cent increase in the base pay for the second enlistment and a 5 per cent increase for each enlist- ment thereafter not to exceed a total of 25 per cent of fhe base pay. The board further recommended that enlisted personnel of the Navy and Coast Guard receive 85 per month for clothing. Under the pres- ent system they are given no allow- ance for clothing after the initial outfit. The board would also remove the restriction on the percentage of the authorized number of enlisted men of the Army and Marine Corps in each pay grade, leaving the dis- tribution to the discretion of the heads of the respective departments. The nurses serving in the Army, Navy and Public Health Service would be taken off the subsistence allow- ances now provided and placed on regular pay schedules running from $1,500 for nurses to $4,000 for super- intendents. These sums would be in- creased each three years by $120, Reasons for Big Increase. “Although the mean increase throughout the various grades in the Nurse Corps provided by this schedule over that of 1910 ts 105 per cent, slightly greater than the increase in the cost of living in that period, yet the great improvement in the stand- ards of employment for women and the existing difficulty of maintaining the Nurs? Corps at full strength be- cause Of existing rates of pay warrant the present recommendation,” the report stated. “Normally,” the report continued, “throughout the three Nurse Corps the members are qHartered in hospitals or nurses’ quarters or other public lodgments. In certain cases, however, such as nurses attached to dispen- saries, they*must provide their own quarters and accordingly an allow- ance of $60 per month is recom- mended for those members of the Nurse Corps who are not provided with Government quarters.” The report was signed by Rear Admiral Luke McNamee, chairman of the board; Brig. Gen. George Rich- ards, Brig. Gen. G. 8, Simonds, Col. F. W. Coleman, Assistant Surgeon Gen- eral C. C. Pierce, Capt. E. R. Wilson, of the Navy: R. 8. Patton, director of Geodetic Survey; Lieut Col.

NEW _SAFETY DEVICES Friedrichshafen, July 30 (AP.).— Final preparations were rushed today for the start at dawn Thursday of the Graf Zeppelin’s next cruise to America. Dr. Hugo Eckener, com- mander of the big ship, said he was thoroughly satisfied with the final motor tests, and most of the 21 pas- sengers who will make the voyage were ready to be assigned to their cabins aboard. The passenger list includes three|p, women, two of whom are Americans, and in all nine Americans are booked for the trip. One of the women, Mrs. Henry J. Pierce, of New York, was aboard the Zeppelin on the unsuc- cessful flight in May which ended in southern France. Increased precautions for safety have been taken by the constructors for the forthcoming venture. One new contrivance, it is stated, will en- able the airship to float on the water if she has to come down in midocean. This invention consists of an airtight rubber tubbing of considerable size attached to the bottom of the pas- senger gondola. Another innovation is a number of protective pneumatic buffers, attached to the lower sur- faces of the five gondolas containing the motors. World Flight to Follow. The voyage of the Graf Zeppelin to America will in a way be a trial flight prior to the circumnavigatjon of the world by the German craft, scheduled to start from Lakehurst a few days after the ship’s arrival there. The itinerary of this round-the- world trip called for the departure from Lakehurst, according to an an- nouncement, on August 7, with the completion of the world circuit at the same airport on August 29. The flight will be made eastward, Capt. Von Schiller said today. The Pacific route will follow the “great circle” route to the north. “We will not be able to go to Hawali,” he said. Names of Passengers. The passenger list follows: Mr. and Mrs. Henry J. Pierce, New York; Mr. and Mrs. George Crouse, Syracuse, N.

Washington St., Alexandria, Va. Phone Alexandria 523. On January 1, 1930, the area in- cluded within the corporate limits of Alexandria will be increased by approximately four square miles, hav- ing an assessed valuation of ap- proximately $5,000,000, and the conse- quent increase in population will be 5,500, as a result of the decision yesterday of the board of supervisory of Arlington County to drop their appeal of the decision rendered by a special tribunal of three judges awarding to the City of Alexandria the territory asked for in annexation proceedings. While the action of the supervisors was not unexpected, the fact that they had filed notice of appeal led to a feeling of uncertainty, and their final decision was received here yesterday with a great deal of satisfaction. The effect of the annexation will be far-reaching. The Town of Poto- mac is included in the annexed terrl- toty, which will mean that the town council there will go out of existence at midnighj, December 31, and Alex- andria will take-over all municipal improvements, the members of the police and fire departments will come under the jurisdiction of Alexandria Officials, and the property owners of a lower tax rate. The law provides that the tax rate may not be increased for five yeaTts, but the city council of Alex- andria already has resolved to apply the existing Alexandria tax rate to Potomac, which wil] result in a de- crease Freight Yards Included. The Potomac freight yards, which have been probably the largest single source of revenue of Arlington Coun- ty. will be included in the annexed territory, and will pay taxes of ap- proximately $35,000 yearly into the treasury of Alexandria. This city, upon assuming control of the new territory, will pay into the Arlington County treasury a half million dol- lars, for the school, roads, fire engine houses and fire apparatus, bridge, culverts and other improvements of & permanent nature. The Alexandria courts will have jurisdiction in cases formerly handled in Potomac, and some of those heard at Arlington Courthouse. Deeds of transfer for property in this section will be recorded in the office of the clerk of the corporation court here, and assessments, on real property will be made by Alexandria’s commission- er of revenue.

So far, incidentally, it is one of the few statements put out by either side on the sugar lobby front which has not resulted in an immediate counter barrage from the other side. The recent talk in Cuba otf abrogat- ing—in the event that the sugar tariff fixed by the House is not reduced by the Senate—the treaty which gives the United States the right to searen vessels flying the Cuban flag re- gardliess of the twelve mile, hour's sail, or any other restrictions, be- comes very interesting in connection with this delicately veiled suggestion. The idea is put forth most adroitly ere is not a word to which the most zealous dry can point and say: “That is a threat.” Apparently it ts just an appeal for fair play for Cuba. pointing out that so vigilant have been the Cuban officials in prevent- ing rum smuggling that exports of liquor from Cuba to the United States have actually been cut down in the last year. | Incidentally the official figures of this curtailment will cause consider- able susprise to those who were on the Florida coast last winter. The supply seemed plentiful, and the price of Bacardi, all things considered, rather reasonable. - Ss . T MAY be that if the Oubans put 1 their minds to it, and go into the rum smuggling business in a big way, they can pull themselves out of their present economic difficulties, about which so much has been heard since the domestic beet and cane in- terests came down to Washington and induced the House to raise the duty against Cuban sugar from $1.76 to $2.40 a hundred pounds. The drys do not like to make the retort that Cuban rum is coming into the United States by devious means, being reshipped from other islands, for instance, because that is playing into the hands of the wets, whose fa- vorite argument is that prohibition can not possibly be enforced. Actually they are more afraid of the moral ef- fect of Cuba abrogatimp the treaty than of the possibility that more Ba- ‘cardi will reach thirsty throats in this country. Such an action by Cuba would beyond doubt inspire Henry By CARTER FIELD sister republic, is giving considerable It Politics Curran, president of the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment, to make copious statements. It might even divert Fiorella LaGuardia from his fight to get the Republican nom- ination for mayor of New York for long enough to make a few comments. It would certainly look like a step backward, from the dry standpoint, and would certainly be unfortunate, from that same viewpoint, while the Hoover-Wickersham crime commission ig studying the whys and wherefores of American lawlessness. O THAT the Cuban move is S shrewdly calculated to win sup- port for Cuba’s fight to hold the duty down from the drys, and as the drys outnumber the wets very heavily in the Senate, it would seem excellent policy, especially as many of the wet senators are already committed against raising the sugar duty. But the sugar war is just com- mencing. There is no prospect of it ending even when the present tariff bill—assuming that President Hoover signs the bill finally passed, which is by no means sure—is enacted. Even if the sliding scale should in actuality give as much protection to the domes- tic producers as the House bill the difficulties of the domestic producers will not be solved. And even if the rate in the present law should be left unchanged, Cuba’s economic troubles will not be ended. Mr. Smoot’s sliding scale, it Is said, would tend to stabilize the price of refined cane sugar, wholesale, in New York, at six cents. The beet people in the most prosperous field in this country, Colorado, say they can not really exist unless they get six a pound at the mills, which, consid- ering freight and the differential against beet sugar because of the preference of sOme buyers for cane, would mean that the price of refined cane wholesale in New York would have to be about 6% cents. On the other hand Cuba is in financial straits now, under the pres- ent duty. Her real hope, though diplomacy prevents her talking about it, is to curtail the flow of Philip- pine sugar into the United States. That happens also to be the even- tual desire of the domestic beet pro- ducers. Maybe she can scare the drys into supporting that, despite Secretary Stimson's opposition!

Lawrence, who will as- sume the duties of his position to- morrow, will have added responsi- bilities due to the annexation of the new territory, and probably will be- gin at once laying his plans for the administration of the new territory. If reports which have reached Alex- andria concerning Lawrence are ac- curate, however, he will not be dis- mayed by the prospect of added duties. The ‘new territory will, in June of 1930, have @ voice in the selection of three members of the city council, the four-year terms of Councilmen Edmund F. Ticer, Robert 8. Jones and J. E. W. Timbermen expiring September 1, 1980, and the election being held in June. The terms of Mayor William Albert Smoot and Councilman Thomas J. Fannon will expire in 1932. It is regarded as -| probable that the new territory will enter one or more candidates in the councilmanic race next year. Room Sought for Expansion. The suit of Alexandria for the an- nexation of additional territory was entered for the purpose of providing for natural expansion of the city to the north and west, the only possible directions in which it could expand, and this action was precipitated to a*certain extent by agitation in Ar- incorporation, which would have “bottled up” Alexandria. * > .

Ander- son, of Annapolis, who dismissed the action brought against him by Steven J. Everd. police magistrate of the Fifth district Alleged fraudulent transactions in a deal for property at Green Haven amounting to 61,800 were the basis of Everd’s charges. Justice Anderson ruled that the testimony adduced was insufficient to support the criminal charge This supported a contention made by At- torney Ridgly P. Melvin, counsel for Christian, at the outset of the pro- ceedings. Christian was arrested a week ago upon a warrant charging him with | obtaining $1,550 from Everd as part | payment for the Green Haven prop- erty, which, it was alleged, he did not |own. He was held tn 81,000 bail. It Baltimore, held a property. This, coupled with spondence between State’s Attorney A. Theodore Brady, counsel for Everd, and the title company and Christian, complicated matters. Brady read a number of letters written to Chris- tian, to most of which the latter — The Radio Store lO Delivers One VICTOR RADIO Prompt Delivery Service Department of Radio Expcris VICTOR RADIO Radio Is a Musical Instrument in a Masic Store ; J developed at today’s hearing that the | |Maryland Title & Guaranty Co., of | mortgage on the | corre- | failed to reply. They tended to in- dicate “stalling” on his part. Evera said he then became suspicious and determined to take criminal action. Charlies H. Buck, president of the title company, stated that while the company holds the deed to the prop- erty. Christian is the actual owner and that as the present time the company would issue a deed for the property Christian sold Everd for development purposes. In answer to questions from Brady. Bi tk said that so long a& the mortgage requirements were fulfilled the company would issue titles. Brady said he believed the title company intimated to him that it had no connection with Christian. . The alleged intimation was denied. Christian, testifying, said he had sold numerous lots at Green Haven since 1915 and that Evard had for a time acted as a personal representative for him. He said that Evard offered him $1,880 for the property involved, and that later Evard demanded a deduc- tion of 15 per cent as agent’s fee and 10 per cent less for cash. Christian said he refused such an agreement. Attorney Brady said he had a certi- fied check for $250 in his possession and that he had notified Christian about it, but that Christian had made no effort either to return the money previously collected or furnish a deed to the property. Christian added that he was making the deal, not soliciting it, and that it was Everd’s business to see that the deal was closed. Everd contended sought such a conclusion evaded. that he had but was Coal Properties’ Sale Is Confirmed $2,060,000 in Assets of Coal Company to eB Disposed Of. Charleston; W. Va., July 30 (A.P.).

ARLINGTON DROPS ANNEXATION FIGHT Appeal on Decision Giving Alexandria Territory Not Noted. ROAD WORK IS PUSHED ARLINGTON COUNTY BUREAU OF THE POST, Tel. Clar, 500. Clarendon, Va. The annexation case begun against; Arlington County by the city of Alexandria more than two years ago came to a sudden end yesterday when *the county board of supervisors, at its meeting held at the courthouse, announced its intention of not noting | Parity an appeal in the case. The board was unanimous in its Opinion that with the case settled during this year the county could gain nothing, the only hope of the appeal having been to hold the taxes of next year. With the action of the board, County Engineer C. L. Kinnier was instructed to notify State Highway Commissioner Col. H. G. Shirly of the decision to drop the appeal and ask that any funds allocated for con- struction of any highways within the annexed area be diverted to State highways within Arlington County. Should the State fail to continue the widening of the «W n- Richmond Highway, which is in the program for this year, to the present city limits it will be up to Alexandria, to improve the highway from the present limits to Four Mile Run which will be on and after midnight, December 31, ef this year when it takes over its new territory won by annexation. The decision of the court gives to Alexandria one-half of Jefferson dis- trict, including the Potomac yards; the George Mason High School and the town of Potomac, which all to- gether is considered one of the richest sections of the county from a tax revenue standpoint. | Among the county officials who must either move or lose the oppor- tunity of again becoming candidates for office are County Clerk William H. Duncan, Edward Duncan, chair- man of the board of supervisors; Archie Richards, deputy sheriff, and Bryan Gordon, associate police court justice. The board opened bids for the wid- ening of the Wilson Boulevard from the Military road to Clarendon. Bids were received from the follow- ing construction companies: McCain Co., Warren F. Brenizer, John H. Ol- cott, the Cranford Paving Co, and Corson & Gruman. Checking the several bids, County Engineer C. L, Kinnier announced that the John H, Olcott Co. was the lowest bidder, their bid being $64,125. The bids ranged as high as $71,302.50. Chairman Edward Duncan an- nounced that the contract will be awarded by the board at its meeting to be held August 15. The delay is to allow the county to complete the laying of water mains and for the public utilities to com- plete all their underground work. Upon the recommendation of County Engineer Kinnier, the board rescinded its previous action requir- ing a penalty of 5° per cent to be added for failure to prompt payment on. the front footage being paid in installments and ordered that all money paid as such penalties be returned, dudge Howard W. Smith ruled in the Circuit Court last week that the county board of supervisors, accord- ing to their printed contracts which Rave been signed by svater takers, are without authority .to levy such a penalty. ., Upon motion of Supervisor B. M. * Legion, when you say, “The Legion stands uniformly for movements which will make permanent peace more certain and assure better un- derstanding between nations.’ ” Misinformation Feared. “I fear you have been misinformed as to the actual problems that lie before us if we are to succeed in such @ negotiation, for they are far more intricate and far more difficult than can be solved by the simple formula which you suggest. But i feel con- fident that the American Legion will be sympathetic with principles of ty by negotiation and of reduc- tion and limitation of armament in- stead of competitive building, with its continuous expansion and all its train of world dangers. *T am further confident that the American Legion will join with me in endeavoring to establish and coop- erate with others in an atmosphere of good will and sincerity within which to find such a solution. “We and other nations have en- tered Into a solemn covenant that we shal] not resort to war as an instru- ment of national policy, that we shal] seek to settle disputes by pacific means and if we are honest in this undertaking it follows that every ef- fort should be made to establish con- fidence in our intentions and to hold our preparedness programs solely within the area of efficient defense. I am confident that these policies are consonant with the many declarations of the American Legion and the senti- ment of the American people.” Cruisers Cause of Row. The whole controversy that Mr. Hoover’s statement about the three crulsers & up has centered about the fifteen-crulser building program. The big navy folk, insisting that that word “parity” was too indefinite or vague for them, immediately began the cry “What about the cruisers? Parity or no parity, we want the cruisers.” Whether they will be able to get any assurance out of the President's letter to Mr. McNutt remains to be seen. There has been a noticeable subsidence of their alarm for the past several days, however, and this is apparently because of the increasing belief that in the final analysis at least ten of the fifteen cruisers will be built. Unable to Argue Question. The President has been in the awk- ward position of not being able to argue this point because it would lessen the effect of his gesture made in response to MacDonald's action in slowing down some of his naval work. The White House statement, subse- quent to the President’s gesture, that the President not only considereq he was authorized to hold up the cruiser work until the end of this fiscal year but also to the end of the fiscal year 1931, caused considerable apprehen- sion in big Navy circles, but the Presi- dent has not said that he intended to wait until the end of 1931 to be- gin work. He has simply said, or rather the White House has said, that he had authority to wait that long. It is becoming daily more apparent that it will not be until late fall that the Navy issue will definitely shape up as to be understandable to those outside of the President’s immediate councils. By that time more light may be shed on just how the appli- cation of this sew parity is to effect thig country ‘in terms of ships. British Cut Called Unlikely. Students of the subject find it hard to believe that ind pone will enter upon any dris uc- tion in its present cruiser strength, OULD anything be more which it is insisted it would have to do unless this country is to embark u an ambitious building program while Great Britain stands still—this, a te oe as they understand it, is to achieved. There have been some suggestions, however, that the parity to be work- ed out will not deal with any one category alone, but will rather be an agreement whereby Great Britain has so many battleships, so many cruisers and $0 many other craft for its de- fense, and this country will have the various craft that is agreed upon as adequate to its defense. rdless of how it all comes out. it is rather significant that Navy circles here do not seem to think the cruiser program is in danger—that should be reassuring to the big Navy people, if that is all they are worry- ing about.

In a letter to Manghum asking,an explanation of his position, Louis 5. Epes, chairman of State Corporation Commission, declared himself ‘‘as- tounded” by the revelation ‘‘made by you (Manghum) in your argument in the Eastern Class Rate case before the Interstate Commerce Commission on July 16, 1929, that on May 13, 1925, you Mad withdrawn your representa- tion of the Virginia interests in that case.” Replying to the letter and request of the Lynchburg chamber, Epes said, “that the first intimation this com- mission had that Manghum had with- drawn his representation ot the Vir- ginia interests was on July 16 last. “We shall be glad to have you give us further information you may have in the matter, and will confer with you further with reference to it after we have received Mr, Manghum’s reply.” Tells of Funds Collected. The letter to the State Corporation Commission asking for the investiga- tion was signed by W. H. Bowles, vice chairman of the traffic committee of the Lynchburg Chamber of Commerce. Mr. Bowles, in his letter, said, “It has come to the attention of the writer that there seems to have been a very gross misunderstanding as re- gards the handling,” of the Eastern Class Rate case. Lynchburg shippers “contributed a considerable amount fo the Virginia Traffic League and the Virginia Shippers Association for employing counsel and other neces- sary legal expenses,” the letter added. “Mr, Mason Gangham appeared as counsel for the Virginia Shippers As- sociation when the case was first opened, some time early in 1925.

If we are correctly informed he acted for neither or even notified us that our State shippers’ organization was without counsel. “In view of the fact outlined above we feel it is pertinent to inquire what disposition was made of funds raised by Virginia shippers for their protec- tion.

A new explanation is now offered for President Hoover’s action: in suspend- ing cruiser construction in defiance of the law laid down in'the Navy bill. It gives an added Anglo-American flavor to the now famous White House state- ment and bestows upon Premier Ram- say MacDonald a large share of the credit, or blame, as the case may be, for the first efforts to bring about dis- integration of the American fifteen cruiser program. MacDonald, it is now said, insisted upon an American sacrifice as the price of publicly inaugurating the naval limi- tation movement in the House of Com- Mons. He had explained some weeks ago that any announcement by him on the naval question would subject the ‘Yabor government to immediate attack by the Conservatives unless there could be a simultaneous American announce- ment of advantage to the British. Any move on the part of America to break down or weaken the cruiser program was obviously the object which the British premier sought to obtain. But difficulties developed because of the law laid down in the American Navy bill. That explains the period of delay during which naval negotiations faded from the first pages of the news- papers. It was known that something had gane wrong, that there had been a hitch somewhere. Apparently the British premier, in élose cooperation with admiralty ex- perts, refused to budge. America could meet the British terms and go ahead or America could see the cause of naval limitation remain languishing and sta- tionary, according to the explanation Dow offered. ’ Further diplomatic conferences broke the temporary deadlock. President Hoover made a statement along the line desired by the British, in return for which Ramsay MacDonald announced his purpose of holding up construction of the two cruisers which previous gov- ernments have been holding up and, in addition, made his statement about recognition of parity. The British and American statements synchronized and were timed to fit in with the ceremonies 6f the Kellogg peace’ pact. Secretary Stimson then followed with his state- ment stressing the importance of the parity announcement and the way was presumed to have been paved for gath- éring in the fruits of the first move toward naval agreement. The flare up over violating the terms of the Navy bill may have been antici- pated, but it is now certain that the ex- tent of this flare up, the prospect of a battle in Congress over the legality of the President’s action and the introduc- tion of a retroactive joint resolution to legalize what the President has done, were not forseen. | + Meanwhile reports from London con- cerning the latest developments, made public yesterday, contained several statements which attracted immediate attention. Parity is not going to apply to cruis- ers of which the British have 62 to America’s 28. There would be difficul- ties, “perhaps insurmountable,” it is stated, “if too much stress were laid on comparison of cruiser fleets.” It is add- ed that the British probably. will not scrap cruisers and that the ultimate treaty will therefore not deal with re- duction but with limitation. It was Ambassador Gibson who insisted upon the use of the word reduction instead of limitation at the last Geneva meet- ing of the preparatory commission and President Hoover himself stressed the importance of the word reduction in- stead of limitation. t However, parity will exist in principle or as a legal maxim or a state of mind | even though it is not applied to cruiser strength. The British are willing to apply it to submarines or battleships. Battleship construction is barred by the Washington treaty and the British admiralty for years has been waging a campaign to reduce submarines to the minimum, or even to abolish them al- together. It is suggested in yester- day’s dispatch that it may be possible “to concentrate attention on those phases of naval rivalry in which dra- matic cuts can be made.” Naval offi- cers here are at a loss to understand this unless it means that the British will agree to do without obsolete ves- sels in return for cruiser superiority. Both Ramsay MacDonald and Presi- dent Hoover “appear anxious to delay intervention of their respective naval experts with technical plans for at least some weeks,” according to the London dispatches. The American naval ex- perts had much to do with preventing agreement at the ill-fated Geneva naval conference of 1927. In fact, the Ameri- can naval experts were directly respon- sible for the refusal of Calvin Coolidge to accept the British terms. MIGRATION OF INDUSTRY. Woll, Federation Matthew vice president of of Labor, has issued a statement urging a provision in the tariff bill providing that holders of American pat- ents and trade-marks must manufacture The state- ment is significant as it may indicate tHe opening of a fight by American labor against the growing tendency to establish branch Mr. Woll complains that some holders of patents, who have a monopoly on the American market, the American their products in this country. factories in foreign countries. manufacture their products abroad with low- wage labor and import the protected articles duty free, or with low tariffs, to sell on the basis of American costs. The consumer is thus exploited, he says, and American labor is denied the opportunity of employment. What is termed the migration of industry to other countries is one of the most inter- esting economic trends of the current era. In a comprehensive article in the Magazine of Wall Street, Theodore M. Knappen esti- mates that there are 2,000 branch or inde- pendent American factories abroad. About $3,500,000,000 of American money is in- vested in foreign enterprises. From the labor point of view, says Mr. Knappen, the “pauper labor’’ of Europe might as well be allowed to migrate to the United States as to permit American factories to migrate to Europe and employ it there to make goods that displace the products of domestic plants and labor. This danger is perhaps more theoretical than real. If a plant is actually removed from this continent to Europe to produce goods that will be shipped back into the United States, American labor has a real grievance. On the other hand, if an Ameri- can concern establishes a branch plant in a foreign land with a view to supplying only the foreign market while maintaining pro- duction here, the case is entirely different. It is natural for the United States to -en- deavor to increase its exports, but it can not be assumed that this country is destined to become the manufacturing center for all the rest ef the world. There are many factors which make ex- porting extremely difficult or impossible. Among these are tariffs, transportation costs, labor costs, patent laws and price of raw materials. Many European countries have imposed tariffs which practically exclude American goods. Nearly every industrial country of Europe has patent laws which favor production within their own borders. Under such circumstances a branch factory is the only method by which American con- cerns can get into some foreign markets. It is a question, then, of expanding or not ex- panding. If the branch factory increases the earnings of the company, it is reason- able to suppose that the benefits will be dis- tributed between American investors and labor. Nor is it to be supposed that American industry has a clear field because of its mass- production methods. Other countries are beginning large-scale production and if it is not financed by American capital, money from some other source will be used. It is a fallacy to suppose that foreign countries will continue indefinitely to import from this country commodities which their own work- men can turn out. On the other hand, many foreign concerns are looking with envy upon the American market, and some have de- cided to take advantage of it by establishing branch factories. of their own within the States. The advantages of low-priced labor abroad are somewhat offset by the extensive market here. To the extent that American factories are being moved abroad to manufacture com- modities for this country with cheap foreign labor, there is ample cause for complaint. But the practice of establishing branch fac- tories to provide for foreign consumption in areas where exports can not be profitably sent appears to be economically sound, and may prove of benefit to both investors and wage-earners of this country. — — — — WATER DEPARTMENT DEFICIT, An extensive investigation into the pos- sible needs of Washington for water dur- ing the next five years is being undertaken at the request of the District Commission- ers. A deficit of $34,000 in the Water De- partment indicates that the present revenue is not adequate to pay for the numerous extensions that are being made. Apparently residents of the District face an increase in water rents. The situation raises the question as to what the relationship between the Federal Government and the Water Department should be. Uncle Sam is one of the largest water users, consuming an average of 8,578,- 000 gallons’ per day. In addition, large amounts are furnished to the District with the result that 41 per cent of all water used produces no revenue, Thus the total cost of maintenance and operation of the Water Department falls upon 59 per cent of the water users. The two sources of revenue available to the department are water rents and assessments for the exten- Under the law the depart- ment must be self-sustaining. The Government at one time carried the entire burden of furnishing water to the Capital. Later it was felt that the people should share the cost and the expense was added to the general accounts which the Federal and District Governments shared on a 60-50 basis. Later the ratio was changed to 40-60. Now, however, the Gov- ernment has not only cut off its contribu- tion to the Water Department but takes without payment water that is paid for by residents of the District. It is estimated that the Government has spent $12,166,000 on the Washington water system, including construction, operation and maintenance. The District has spent for the same purpose $9,909,000 and the Water Department $4,422,000. The Fed- eral investment has been large, but that is no reason why the water users of Wash- ington should contribute free water to the Government jg perpetuity. The situation is not fair to present water users, who must pay for the generosity of Congress to the District in years gone by. The ideal situation would be for the Gov- ernment to pay for the water it uses just as other consumers do. The Federal invest- ment should, of course, be recognized. This might be accomplished through a _ special water rate for the Government until such time as an equitable portion of the invest- ment has been repaid. Such a plan would obviate the necessity of increased rates and at.the same time provide a more satisfac- tory division of water costs among the users. sion of mains. TARIFF HISTORY By WARREN W. WHEATON, In the Philadelphia Public Ledger. Tariff readjustments are a gigantic task. Its magnitude has been recognized since the first tariff bill was passed in 1789. Each of the many needed changes has been at- tended by foreign protests, by party strife, by political deaths and preferment. In the present situation, history repeats itself. A budding Nation in 1789, the United States needed revenue. The Constitution adopted in that year provided revenues through the tariff. Alexander Hamilton, first Secretary of the Treasury in 1791, re- ported to Congress on the necessity of pro- tecting American industry from foreign competition. He enunciated a policy that has continued through the years. It occa- sioned little serious discussion until 1794, and from then until 1816 24 acts affect- ing the tariff duties were passed by Congress. In 1812 duties on imports were doubl-d to furnish revenue for the war with Great Britain, and these high rates continued for a year after the establishment of peace. Jx- ports from England to the United States al- most ceased as a result. American mahu- facturers were placed largely upon their own resources. They expanded. But after the termination of war, imports virtually flooded the country. The great influx threatened ruin. Secretary of the Treasury Dallas urgod a new tariff with still higher rates. Con- gress ignored him, but protection ceased to be incidental and became the direct objcct of the tariff. That brought about the first marked divi- sion over the protective and free-trade poli- cies, and a few years later, in 1824, sectional alignments, never since absent in tariff-mak- ing, appeared. Sectional feeling became serious when tariff revision was made in 1832. That bill aroused much hostility in the South. South Carolina put a bill through its Legislature nullifying the national tariff act and threatened secession. After the Civil War, tariff revisions be- came more and more complex. But it was not until 1882 that these complexities forced the creation of the Tariff Commission. Its very first action was to recommend an average reduction of from 20 to 25 per cent on the rate on dutiable goods, then so high it averaged approximately 43 per cent. But Congress did not follow its recommen- dations. Instead, it revised the tariff and made the rates still higher. This brought the tariff controversy into open conflict, so that in 1884 and again in 1886 the House absolutely declined to join in efforts to re- vise the tariff. The fight grew so vigorous that finally the tariff became a dominant issue in the presidential elections in 1888 after President Cleveland had asked a revision the year be- fore. In 1897 President McKinley urged the first extra session of Congress to revise the tariff. Since then revision of the act has always been undertaken in special session. Today Congress will consider itself lucky if it sends the tariff bill to the President by December 1. The Congress started its re- vision months before President Hoover called it into being April 15. The problem grows harder with the years. The first special session for tariff-making under McKinley lasted only from March 15 to July 24 and resulted in the passage of the Dingley act. The nearest approach to the present situa- tion was the passage of the Underwood- Simmons act under President Wilson during a session which lasted from.-April 7 to De- cember 1, although there were other things considered besides the tariff. The tariff bill differs from all other pieces of legislation. It is a measure of national policy. It is privileged legislation and has the right of way. It must originate in the House, where it is first handled by the ways and means committee, oldest of the congres- sional standing committees, created in 1789, before George Washington was inaugurated first President. The House originates the legislation. The Senate invariably rewrites the House bill. Consequently, when the Senate disposes of the bill, probably some time in November, it will have to go to conference. Five men from each house constitute the conference. These ten men will smooth out the differences. They. may agree to accept the House rate, in which case the Senate yields its viewpoint; they may pecept the Senate rate as the House yields, or they may work out a compromise, which is the more usual procedure. 2 — 4 THE WASHINGTON POST: WEDNESDAY.

But when Germany issued her brazen challenge, they had either to accept it or surrender their standing as a free people. A similar situation has developed in the war between liquor and law. The people have been partisans from the beginning. The friegds of liquor have winked at violation of the law; the friends of prohibi- tion have winked at violation of rights and liberties. In passion or in amused indifference the people have watched the struggle, taking sides according to their. nature, yet standing aloof for the most part, as people do’ who watch a\ game. But now the people have received a challenge similar to Ger- many’s. It is one thing to sneak a bottle in a spirit of deviltry or take a drink on the sly, and quite another to walk down the street with a quart in one hand and a.gun in the other, daring all-the forces of law to interfere. Whatever the right or wrong of prohibition, the Government can not retreat or surrender when challenged by organized criminals. That international criminals are organized, equipped and armed to | challenge the forces of law is known to the world. Governmert must accept the challenge and at any cost demonstrate its power to over- come organized crime or acknowledge that crime is the master. This is no debatable question. This is not a discussion of prohibition. The question is whether Government or crime shall dominate our national life. Good citizens may debate the worth of a law, but there is only one side for them to take when outlaw bands take up arms to chal- lenge the supremacy of government. (Copyright, 1929.)

I’ll bet he is thinking up a plot for another play right now. Mr. O’Neil—Are you very happy, darling? (Aside): That’s an asinine question. Suppose she should say no? Miss Monterey—Awfully, Gene. Are you? (Aside): He’s never happy; I can tell by his face. My, but he’s get- ting deep lines! Mr. O’Neil—I’m the happiest man in the world, Carlotta. (Aside): And even if I’m not you can’t disprove it. One has to go to extremes in a case like this. You’d be sore if I said I was the second happiest man in the world. Miss Monterey—And I’m the hap- plest woman, Gene. (Aside): I have my misgivings about this fellow at times. He won't be any too easy to live with, I suppose. I'll have to be patient. (They arrive at the church.) Miss Monterey (in an aside)—I hope I'm not making a bigemistake. He’s probably more in love with his work than with me. I suppose I'll have to go around the house on tiptoe so as not to disturb him. It'll be pretty awful at times. Maybe I should take a firm step at the outset and refuse to coddle him.

Complications. ‘Springfield Union: The situation will be highly complicated, we sup- pose, when six or eight snobs try to LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Will It Be Parity and Disparity, or Pare and Par? . To the Editor of The Post—Sir: we have with us this gvening “Parity,” and its proper or convenjent defini- tion. Webster reads: “Parity, n. equality; likeness,’ which seems to leave no doubt, unless it has a dif- ferent meaning when expressed diplo- matically, Let us then take its first meaning. “equality, ”" and see if we can, by the greatest stretch of imagination, make 28 cruisers equal 62, or its final mean- ing, is there any “likeness” in a fleet containing 62 ships, to one contain- ing but 28? Let us now turn back, in the dic- tionary, to “disparity.” That is de- fined: “Inequality of rank, station, degree, or excellence; disproportion.” Considering the question in the last sense, it would seem that a 62-28 ratio is rather disproportionate, 50 that while it may be true that when the naval question is considered from the British viewpoint, it is “parity,” when seen from the United States short end it is “disparity.” Webster, gives another word that might be considered in the premises. It is “Pare—v. %. to cut away little by little; reduce, or diminish.” Should Great Britetn volunteer to “pare” her navy, until it reached “par, n. state of equality,” with the U. 8. Navy, in the presence, and to the satisfaction of a U. S, naval board, then the VU, 8. could, in all sincerity, accept the term naval parity. I would like to read a thesis on the impending naval crisis, written by “a “ members of the U. S. naval general * staff, expressing their conscientious several opinions, could it be done without the self-same officers be- ing “Magruderized.” A VETERAN OF THREE WARS. A New Spirit Is Abroad in the South. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Of the ten greatest harbors of the United States, the Gulf of ‘Mexico’s northern shore claims five. New York is our greatest American port, with New Orleans and Galveston coming second and third. Porth Arthur, Mobile and Pensacola are the other present im- portant ports, considering tonnagé in and out. Alabama is now being de- veloped rapidly with enlarged iron and steel plants, and most of the new cotton mills established in the South last year went to that State. The entire Gulf Coast is undergoing a substantial industrial growth. The Gulf Coastal Highway to connect Jacksonville and Los Angeles is now an assured fact, and will give the very best facilities for highway transporta- tion between the present important gulf cities and ports, and also touch at the Port. Dixie Harbor, which is nearest to the coal and iron deposits of the South,,and has the third largest body of deep water in a protected harbor on the United States’ water- front. Strong interests are to develop this port, which will afford the largest freight-carrying vessels anchorage and dock facilities equal to the -great European shipping points. The population of the South is, much alive and is made up of the - Southerners and people from the North, East and West. They all are one, so to speak, in doing what is pos- sible to develop heretofore neglected resources that will help the entire country. The South is producing really need- ed products from the top soil and from under the ground. We should cooperate as closely as good business will permit with our Southern friends. R. HENRY... Montclair, N. J. American People Are Capable of Guarding Their Own Morals. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Senator Cutting of New Mexico has done the country a great service in publicly calling attention to the “danger and folly of giving customs Officers the right to dictate what the American people may or may not read.” He has said only what every American doubtless feels in his heart, but his opinion will doubtless have more weight than that of the ordinary citizen. The censors of the Bureau of Cus- toms recently made themselves ridicu- lous by pronouncing Voltaire’s “Candide” obscene and then later re- considering the decision after the public had laughed it to scorn. The Offense has now been repeated with respect to, the vivid war tale, “All Quiet on\the Western Front,” by Erich Maria Remarque. Since this book is not a classic it will doubtless have fewer defenders than “Candide” and will therefore be withdrawn from the American public. Why in this country where we boast of our freedom of speech and personal liberty must. intelligent peo- ple have their morals guarded over by unliterary custom officials? The practice is an outrage, especially in a democratic country. It is time that. some official of the Government cham- piloned the rights of the American reader, I am sorry to realize that Senator Cutting will receive all too:. little commendation for his denun- ciation of the tyranny of censors, ARTHUR H. MacRAY. Make War on Bugs! To thé Editor of The Post—Sir; I note -that Col. Grant and the United States Public Health Service plan tO make war on mosquitos, I Suggest that they make war on bugs of all varieties and I can tell Col, Grant where to wage the first battle. I am not against making available recreational facilities after nightfall . and think it splendid that those who are employed during the day can en- gage upon their favorite sport in the’ cool of the night.

BIG COTTON STRIKE SITUATION LOUSENG British Mill Owners Ready for Negotiations With Their Employes. NEW BRANCH INVOLVED Manchester, England, July 30 (A. P.).—The great stoppage in the Lan- cashire cotton industry; which has tied up 1,500 mills and thrown half a million operatives out of work, loosened somewhat tonight despite falilure of three meetings of different organizations today to bring resump- tion of negotiations between employ- ers and workers, Although a committee of the Mas- ter Cotton Spinners Federation con- firmed the action of the employers’ wages committee in reducing wages 12% per cent, the employers gen- erally tongiht expressed themselves as ready to meet the workers in new negotiations. This attitude on the part of the employers, however, presupposed ‘the workers would be ready to discuss some reduction in wages, though not necessarily to the full 1244 per cent demanded by the master cotton spin- ners. A new branch of the industry was brought into the dispute today by announcement of the Cotton Waste Spinners & Manufacturers Associa- tion that it would seek similar re- duction of wages for its employes Representatives of employers and workers in this branch will meet to- morrow.

There are many kinds of eagles. Among these are the golden eagle and the bald eagle. The golden eagle, which is found in many parts of Europe and Amer- ica, kills smaller birds and rabbits for food. Many casea are on record where it has killed lambs and fawns. The eagle must be careful that a fawn is alone before it swoops down Daring, Dangerous Birds. to kill. Sometimes the mother deer has been known to rush to the réscue of her young. By butting the bird with her head, or kicking with her heels, she has saved the fawn from death. The bald eagle is a native of North America. It has been given the name because the young members of the tribe have no feathers on the top,of their heads until they are 7 years old. Later they grow small white feathers there. Life is long among these birds. They may reach the of 100 years without being extremely old, as eagles go. Soche eagles, it is declared, have lived for 200 years or more. Bald eagles have a habit of letting other birds do work for them. They wait on a high limb of a giant tree and near the sea coast. that perch, they watch fish hawks at the game of making a living.

HE people of South Carolina have recently erected a monument to Dr. Marion Sims, a great sur- geon born in their State. Dr. Sims gained his reputation as g surgeon while a general practitioner in Ala- bama. He later broadened his repu- tation by establishing the Woman's Hospital in New York City. Living in Europe for several years he achieved world-wide fame. The people of South Carolina would also honor themselves were they to erect a mon- ument to another native son, Dr. J. C. Nott. Dr. Nott’s great service was to preventive medicine. Like Dr. Sims, Dr. Nott moved from South Carolina to Alabama. It was while a resident of Mobile that he adve- cated the theory that mosquitoes spread yellow fever, antedating Dr. Carlos Finley, of Havana, by many years. Like Dr. Sims, Dr. Nott rendered New York City a great service, hav- ing investigated an epidemic of yel- low fever which occurred in that city in 3870. It wes while practicing in Mobile in 1848 that Dr. Nott wrote an article in the New Orleans Medical and Surgical Journal advocating the mosquito theory. I think I have read other articles by him in other pub- lications in which he advocated this theory. In Dr. Nott’s report on the New York City epidemic he said yellow fever ig never contagious. He leaned etrongly to the germ theory of dis- ease, according :to the bulletin of the New York City Health ment.

Me did not sup- ply the clear-cut proof that Reed, Carroll and Lazean provided when they demonstrated the truth of Car- los Finley's speculations. His claims are somewhat aimilar to those of Joseph Jones for credit as the dis- coverer of the malaria parasite. Joseph Jones, of New Orleans, sew this parasite, described it and drew what he saw, but he was in error in many of his points. His demon- stration lacked the clear-cut scientific exactness of that of Laveran, the Frenchman, who, years later, wrote on the same subject. However, tor that matter, how could we t clear-cut proof considering the ls with which Nott worked in 1848. or even the state of the sciences and srt when Joseph Jonés wrote about mia- laria?

She had lodged for years with 4 shoemaker in that town, but he did not report the case for a month after she had left the house. He explained the delay by saying that she was in the habit of leaving for a few days at a time, and he did not want to cause unnecessary excitement. The police fclt that it was incum- bent upon them to do something, so they placed the shoemaker under ar- rest. He was held as a ‘material wit- ness.” Many weeks went by without the discovery of anything to account for this strange disap — Then the shoemaker was rele He went to his home and, prowling —— the loft of the house, made @ ghastly dis- covery.

The Bavarians did what the police ‘of New York or Chicago would have done under the circumstance. They located the two men and they _shadowed them for many weary days. So far ag Steiner was concerned, it _was love's labor lost, and they pinned their hope upon Rauschmeir doing something that might incriminate himself. Their expectations wete realized. One day the man went into a pawnshop and offered to pledge & woman's coat was a criminel and cheerfully con- feased that he had stolen the coat from the girl’s room, but ridiculed the idea of having had anything to do with her murder. But stimulated with the progress they were making, the police made a third search of the lodgings. This time they found a cheap ring<a man’s ring that was splashed with blood. Inquiries were made in the neighborhood, and a man was*found who said that he had seen this ring on Reuschmetr’s finger.

The Aeronautics Branch, Depart- ment of Commerce, has no records to show that Commander Byrd ever failed to pass the required examina- tion for licensed pilots or that he has even applied for such a test. He does hold a certificate issued by the Fed- eration Aeronautique Internationale through the National Aeronautic As- sociation. The number of this cer- tificate is 6681 and it was granted April 11, 1927. Officials of the N. A. A. pointed out yesterday that it was necessary for him to be licensed by the aeronautic organization for his flight to France to have been official should it have set any record. Being a qualified Navy pilot, Com- mander Byrd may pilot Army and Navy aircraft wherever he pleases. But should he so much as take a licensed civil airplane off the ground. and the fact be reported to the De- partment of Commerce, he would be subject to discipline. Department heads in the aeronau- tics branch yesterday called attention to the fact that Commander Byrd in the past has never made a flight in a civil airplane without taking a li- censed pilot with him. Floyd Ben- nett, who sacrificed his life in an effort to help the Bremen fliers, pi- loted him over the North Pole. On his transatlantic flight, Bert Acosta and Bernt Balchen alternated at the controls. Byrd's position on his recent spec- tacular flights has been that of navi- gator—or “avigator,” as he seems to prefer to call it. However, if he ever decides to “take the stick” himself some day when he is flying in a civil- ian airplane, it will likely create a lot of trouble for the famous flier if the Department of Commerce ever hears about it.

WORK WILL START SOON Purchase of 92,508 square feet of land in Wesley Heights, adjoining the American University site between Newark and Macomb streets north- west, at a total price of $58,240, was authorized »~™rday by the Board of District Commissioners to provide a location for erection of a 16-room school building to replace four por- table schools now on a plot of 25,02i square feet adjoining the newly au- thorized site. The assessed valuation of the land is $46,596, and it was the opinion of the board that the price asked by the owners, W. C. and A. N. Miller, amounting to 125 per cent of this assessed figure, was a reasonable and just price for the District to pay. Lots Nos. 13 to 37 are involved in the transaction, which is to be con- summated immediately in order so permit an early start on work of erecting the new school building. On Lots Nos. 1 to 3 in the same plot a community house now stands, and in addition to the school building to be constructed, it is proposed also to de- vote a portion of the new site to in- creasing the District’s playground fa- cilities. A deal was closed yesterday by Ma). Layson E. Atkins, assistant district engineer commissioner, with the Thrift Building Co. for purchase of @ 42-acre tract in Anacostia Park, adjoining Kingman Lake, as a site for erecting two colored schools and a colored health center. A price of $100,000, or slightly more than $4,000 an acre, was paid. This transaction, is in line with plans for establishment of an exten- Sive colored recreation center in Anacostia Park. A new junior high school, an elementary school of the platoon type, and a health center, along the lines of that now in c_ >ra- tion for white children at Thirteenth and Allison streets northwest, are called for in present plans. Maj. Atkins stated further than negotiations are under way for pur- chase of a triangular strip of with a frontage of about 300 feet, as an addition to the grounds of McKin- ley High School, this land being located on the south side of the sta- dium, on the east side of First street northeast. Another entrance io the school grounds would be afforded by purchase of this strip, on which three residences are now standitg.

He -was taken seriously by the general staff and was given a monthly allowance of 26,000 marks to perfect the first practical sample of his mass-death machine. Some hitch developed in the laboratory experiments and the armistice was signed before Brehahn got his model out. When peace made his labors un- necessary, Brehahn found a ready audience among the nobility of Silesia and among ultranationalists and army men who hoped to bring back the kaiser and to put their country On the road to glory once more. Tales Stir Imagination. Brehahn’s tales __ stirred their imaginations as men’s imaginations were stirred in the Middle Ages by stories of the philosopher’s stone and the elixir of life. They saw them- selves as masters of Germany and masters of the world. A retired general took Brehahn under his wing. At the general’s house the “inventor” met such people as Prince von Bismarck, Count Bueck- ler, Count Maltzan and Baron von Dirksen, who, with other enthusiasts. subscribed 60,000 marks toward Brehahn'’s work, and undertook to find another 600,000 marks, which was obtained from monarchist or- ganizations. Brehahn ‘kept their enthusiasm at a high pitch by declaring that he would show them the effect of his device by killing all the Jews in Berlin in three minutes and afterward turning his attention on all Re- publicans and Liberals. Fortunately for the Jews and the rest of the world, Brehahn took a long time in per- fecting his invention. His backers protested two ye ago when he deserted his workshop to go on & lecture tour throughout the country to explain the death ray to big town audiences.

To insure a continuance of their present success- ful operation, management will remain in the hands of the men so largely responsible for their success in the past. Of the companies acquired, International Projector Corporation has been a leader in adapting projection apparatus to sound pic- tures and sells a large portion of its products to Western Electric Company, The Radio Corporation of America, Fox Film Corpora- tion, Loew’s, Inc., and Paramount-Famous Lasky Corporation. The average number of projectors per theatre is 2.9; and some of the larger theatres use as many as five or six machines. A New Day Dawns in the The present world-wide success of the motion picture industry is in reality but a forecast of what the future holds for those with the technical and financial resources necessary to take full advantage of every opportunity. Already General Theatres Equipment, Inc., has completed plans for market- ing several new motion picture devices—outstanding among them a new type of camera with a revolving lens and a new type of projector so designed that when the pictures are thrown on the screen they give the illusion of a third dimension, life-like and convincing. This will make possible the show- ing of pictures at least two or three times as large as those now generally Tile sade devlcd hes bein hailed by shan ia euthidley te the bade 00 greatest forward step since the introduction of sound. A Consolidation of the Leading Manufacturers and Distributors of Motion Picture Equipment ANUFACTURING in excess of 75% of all motion picture projectors used in theatres through: out the world—and is the largest manufacturer.of professional cameras used either for sound or silent pictures. | Operating thirty stores and warehouses in the principal cities of the United States; and servicing booth equip- ment in three-fourths of all motion picture theatres throughout the country. Net earnings for the calendar years 1929 and 1930, based on estimates as to contracts or commitments now at hand or presently to be acquired, are estimated in excess of $4,000,000 and $10,000,000 respectively. This does not take into account any of the substantial economies which the General Theatres Equipment, Inc., should be able to effect due to its large purchasing power and the benefits of centralized operation and management. A Dominant Factor in a Stable Field The Manufacture and Distribution of Motion Picture Saulpment for Theatrical, Industrial, Educational and Home Use Also in the consolidation is National Theatre Supply Company, and warehouses in the principal cities, retailing all types of theatre equipment, projector parts, supplies, and making available service for booth equipment for 75% of all motion picture theatres. —_- Other companies include Grandeur, Inc., which will distribute and service the new projectors developed by International Projector Corporation; Mitchell Camera Company, which manufactures pro- fessional cameras for both sound and silent pictures; J.B. McAuley Manufacturing Company, Hall & Connolly, Inc., The Strong Electric Corporation and Ashcraft Automatic Arc Company, which together manufacture substantially all projecting lamps used in theatres; and Theatre Equipment Acceptance Corporation, which finances commercial peper taken for theatre equipment. In short, General Theatres Equipment, Inc. will occupy a pre dominan t position in the most stable field in the motion picture industry—the manufacture and distribution of equipment fer theatrical, industrial, educational and home uss.

WASHINGTON: WEDNE SDAY, JULY 31, 1929. NATS OUTSLUG BROWNS TO WIN SERIES PENER, 11-9 —— ' wr Jacobs Stable Is Banned in New York Routis and Genaro in Group Set Down by ‘Commission. Body Fails to Answer Gardens’ Announce- ment of Bout. EW YORK, July 30 (A-P.)—Fis- tic observers, expecting an ex- plosion in the, Schmeling-Gar- den-New York State Athletic Com- mission controversy, heard only a slight wheeze when the State solons gathered for their weekly meeting today. Although it made no answer to the announcement of Madison Square Garden officials that they plannéd to go through with a Schmeling-Sharkey fight despite the fact that Schmeling is under suspension, the commission did make a bit of a gesture in the controversy by revoking the licenses of all boxers in the stable of Joe Ja- cobs, Schmeling’s Manager of choice. In this list were Andre Routis, featherweight champion; Frankie Ge- naro, filyweight; Tony Caragliano and Eddie (Kid) Wagner, lightweights, and Jack Delaney, light heavyweight. | Little Excitement Results. Little excitement resulted from this ,@dict, however, it being an almost . automatic aftermath of the revoca- tion of Jacob’s license as a manager. It has been general practice for the commission to suspend an entire sta- ble of boxers when their manager was disciplined, the commission arguing that the best way to inflict punish- ment on fistic pilots is by way of the pocketbook. The commission had revoked the licenses of Jacobs, Schmeling and Billy McCarney several days ago as a result of the German heavyweight’s refusal to go through with a match with Phil Scott, of England. This match had been signed for by Arthur Buelow, Schmeling’s repudiated man- ager. Pending official word from the Gar- den that it intended to go through ‘with the Schmeling-Sharkey Nout, the commission announced it would take no further action. Previously the commission had warned the Gar- dén such action would result in sus- pension. Cardinals Beat Robins In llth Inning, 10-9 St. Louls, July 30 {A.P.)—The Car- dinals ended their losing streak of three games today by winning the first of the series from Brooklyn, 10 to 9, in an eleven-inning swatting bee.

Losing only five games in two matches, Miss Helen Jacobs ad- vanced majestically today to the semifinal round of the Seabright invitation tennis tournament, in which she is defending her laurels won last year. After swamping Miss Anne Page, of Philadelphia, 6—0, 6—2, Miss Jacobs defeated a fellow Californian, Miss Marjorie Gladman, 6—0, 6—3. When play in the women’s singles is resumed on Thursday Miss Jacobs will mee; Miss Marjorie Morrill, of Dedham, Mass., who defeated Miss Alice Francis, of Orange, N. J., 6—4, 6—1, in the third round. In the other half of the draw two more invaders from the Far West came through to give California three of the four semifinal] berths, Miss Edith Cross, of San Francisco, trim- ming Miss Dorothy Andrus, of Yon- kers, N. Y., and Miss L. A. Harper, another San Franciscan trouncing Miss Evelyn Parsons, of Palo Alto, Calif., 6—2, 6—3. Helen Jacobs Favored To Win Title. In the national women’s ranking list, Miss Jacobs is second, Miss Cross third, Miss Morrill. sixth and Mrs. Harper eighth, and it is in about that order the surviving “big four” are favored. Without any dominating individual figure, the race for tournament honors in the men’s division waxed hotter today as the field narrowed down to eight survivors. Only two foreign players were among this number as the Oxford and Cambridge University entrants were turned back in three out of four engagements and only N. G. Farquharson, of South Africa, and Cambridge remained with Sadakazu Onda, of Japan, to supply an inter- national angle. Parquharson, a veteran of Davis Cup plays as a representative of South Africa, defeated Watson Wash- burn, the fo: : internationalist, 6—3, 5—7, 6—4. Russell Young, New Zealander who captains the Oxford-Cambridge forces, was turned back decisively, however, by Richard N. Williams, one time Davis Cup double partner of Washburn. England’s two other reverses came when John Doeg, eighth ranking American player, defeated Paul de Ricou, young French student at Ox- ford, and Gregory Mangin, of New- ark, N. J., downed E. R.

Berkeley Bell, of Texas, intercol- legiate champion, who is favored to succeed to the title won last year by John Van Ryn, was forced to come from behind and fight his hardest to CONTINUED ON PAGE 19, COLUMN 2. EW YORK, July 30 (N.Y.W.NS.). Major league scouts are report- ing to their owners that there is very little high quality ivory lying around loose in the sticks. One of them, who has been traipsing through half a dozen leagues all over the country since last Aprii without recommending a single purchase, says the scarcity of good players is just as acute in the minors as it is in the major leagues. The few good prospects his peering eyes have encountered were sewed up by some other big league club. Com- petition has become so keen that a three-line item in a country weekly to the effect that Hiram Who’s This struck out nine Calamity Corners batters in a game last week will bring a dozen scouts flying to look Hiram over. Practically every club in the majors spends from $40,000 to $75,- 000 annually on its scouting system and considers itself fortunate indeed if the scouts turn up two players of major league caliber. Legion Series to Help Furnish Talent. Major league magnates are hopeful that the annual American Legion tournament for boys will develop some sorely needed material. The American and National Leagues dip into their exchequers for $25,000 apiece each year to help finance the tournament. Under the able direc- tion of Dan Sowers, last year’s tourna- ment was a great success and this year’s promises to be even greater. Some 200,000 boys are engaging in this country-wide competition. The great problem that Mr. Sow- ers and other baseball missionaries face is not reviving boys’ interest in the game, but in finding places for them to play it in. A recent baseball survey. conducted by Maj. John L. Griffith, executive vice president of the National Amateur Athletic Feder- ation, showed that thousands of growing communities are allowing their sandlot baseball diamonds to be taken over for other purposes. In big cities, of course, the facilities for playing baseball are almost “negligible. Rice Institute Opposes Bracey as Grid Player. Claude Bracey is the bone of con- tention on which Rice Institute ath- letic officials are chewing furiously these days. The great Texas sprinter is eager to play foot ball and the coach of the Rice Institute’ eleven and the graduate manager of ath- letics at that institutYon agree that Claude’s is a noble ambition that should be gratified. But the track coach. who developed Claude into an outstanding cinder path star stands aghast at the idea and is kicking up quite a fuss about it. He thinks that using a great track athlete like Bracey for football purposes is like WHEN —8 at THIS STORE TO PARK YOU THE CAPITAL GARAGE AT OUR EXPENSE Mid-Summer Clearance ALL STRAW HATS DUNLAP STIFF STRAWS INVITE = Saw PANAMAS, INCLUDED You AR AT ie=——= ) LEGHORNS ONE- Were NOW $5.00 ....$2.50 600. ... °o : WU PAU ew i) ww -KO}MONNWN 2 A ox OMwooooOngyvKoooro°o°oow — —— ————————————— cS) ~] WwW ~] HOOrOCoKH He M— Totals.. *Batted for Rhyne in sixth. for Carrol in sixth. or Bigelow in sixth. 3106000 ? 8 n Runs—Morgan ta J.

Pitcher Liska To Undergo Operation Immediate Removal of His Tonsils Is Necessary. Spencer to Stay With Club; Bluege May Return to Team. N immediate operation has been ordered for Pitcher Adolph Liska and, unless there is a change of plans, he will have his badly diseased tonsils yanked within the next few days, just as soon as the club physician can get him in shape for the operation and reduce the imflammation and temperature which is keeping him confined to his home. This means that the rookie underhander will be of no use to the team for perhaps a month. Fred Marberry, who is suffering from the same ailment, is not in as bad condition as is Liska and it is thought that he will be able to stave off taking the ether until after the — season ends. d Sam” Jones, the other pitcher ian" ae temporarily on the ailing list, yesterday reported that his sore salary wing is now O. K., which was good news to Manager Walter John- son, It should be a left-handed day all around at the Griffith Stadium this afternoon, when the Nationals and Brownies will stage their second game of the four-game series, for Bob Burke and Walter Stewart are the likely pitchers to perform. The latter has been particularly effective against the Nationals in the past, while Burke hopes to repeat his efforts in St. Louis on the Nats’ last visit there when he granted but four hits and scored a well-earned victory. Griffith Returns Home Soon. Word was received from Chicago yesterday to the effect that President Clark Griffith has recovered from his appendicitis operation to such an ex- tent that he will leave for Washing- ton Friday and arrive here early Saturday morning. The waiver request which the Na- tionals made on Catcher Roy Spencer so that they could send him to the Newark Interantionals on 24-hour op- tion, has been withdrawn, as John- son did not want to lose the player altogether and it is understood that two clubs put in a claim for him. Arthur Neu, a right-handed pitcher who has been performing with the Good Shepherd Athletic Club, a New York semipro team, is trying for a berth with the Nationals. His record with the Shepherds was five victories in seven starts. He showed consider- able speed and a fair curve, but is only a youngster and proably needs more experience before having a chance to make good in the majors. Bluege May Postpone Operation. Ossie Bluege reports that his ailing knee is improving so steadily that he plans to take up with the club physi- cian the question of postponing the proposed operation to remove a float- ing cartilage until after the season ends. Ossie believes that a little more rest will have the injured member in such shape that he can get back in the line-up. The chances are, however, that the club will urge that the operation be made shortly, as per schedule, as the inflelder’s underpinning never will be normal until the cartilage is re- moved and Manager Johnson prob- ably would rather have it done now and assure himself of Bluege’s un- in pted services next year than to teke a chance that it halfway heals and that the operation is indefinitely put off waiting for it to be hurt again. Bluege, by the way, will not be the only member of his family in the big leagues this season, as the Cincinnati Reds have just purchased his brother, Otto, from the Dubuque (lowa) Team of the Mississippi Valley League for fall delivery. The younger Bluege is a shortstop—and said to be a good one—who is batting around the .300 mark in the minors. Assistant Secretary Billy Smith, in charge of concessions for the Wasn- ington Club, last night was taken to Garfield Hospital for an examination. Yesterday he was absent because -of illness, for the first time in many years.

HILADELPHIA, July 30 (A.P.).— George Uhle weakened in the ninth inning of a pitching duel against Lefty Grove today and enabled the Athletics to pull out a 5-to-4 vic- tory over the Detroit Tigers in the tenth. Up to the ninth, Uhle had allowed only four hits, one of them a homer by Jimmy Foxx, and had a 4-1 lead. In the ninth Al Simmons came through with a homer with one on base and Foxx followed with a sin- gle to drive Uhle from the mound Dykes’ double off Graham scored Foxx with the tying run. Whitehill took the mound in the tenth after Bishop had walked and had been sacrificed to second, He walked Coch- rane, then Simmons singled to bring in the winning run. Dertoit. AB HOA Phila.

N old-fashioned elugfest was staged at Clark Griffith Sta- dium yesterday in which. the* Nationals outhit the Browns and’ turned in an 1i-to-9 victory, which. coupled with a Chicago defeat: in New York, put Johnson's team back in sixth place in the league standing. —if that means anything. It was an’ interesting fracas with the resul¢ in doubt almost until the end. An@ as a matter of fact, the Nationals were. trailing much of the time, but finally broke an 8-8 deadlock in the seventh for their margin of victory. It was a hard day oh pitchers, “mp. less than seven being used before the’ contest ended. Irving Hadley and Sam Gray were the starters, the formey tiring in the fifth because of @°: ter on the finger of his — hand, while Gray was excused in tie lower half of the same frame when - he suddenly lost the art of f a the Nat batters. Before the final “Ott. was turned ‘in, George Blaehotder Chad Kimsey and John Ogden -fiad . been pressed into service by H ? while Johnson had been com to call on both Myles Thomas and Garland Braxton. The latter two were” not hit particularly hard, but «ty. were much too generous with LE = passes, each forcing over an alfen- run during the game. 2 Judge Hits Pair 4 Of Doubles.

Dougan Tops Drive} at Washington Club and Is Surprised. ever been related in this section is told by Robert Dougan, of 1631 Euclid street, and a publicity man by profession. It is accompanied by affidavits and a photograph 60 that no one is allowed for one mo- ment to doubt its truth. Attention, everybody, while facts are set down in cold print. Dougan was playing on the course of the Washington Golf and Country Club with Y. E. Booker, Wise and G. B. Craighill, all fellow-mem- bers of the club. On the fourteenth hole, a one-shotter, 234 yards, Dougan drove with a brassy. He gave a ty swing but topped the ball, which hit the front of the tee and then went off into the air with a peculiar whirling sound, suddenly dropping into a ditch about 75 yards away. When the ball was retrieved from the ditch a tee (not the one Dougan had used) was found to have pene- trated clean through the edge of the ball in the manner shown in the accompanying picture. How such 4 T's weirdest golf story which has the THE EVIDENCE, thing could have happened is a mys- tery, for the cover of the ball is by no means soft but, on the contrary, is vulcanized rubber. However, there is the ball and the tee and the pic- ture and the testimony of four golf- ers who never Potterize their scores. Diegel, Smith to Play Golf Exhibition Here Leo Diegel, winner of the recent Canadian open golf championship, and Horton Smith, spectacular young | player who wren the North and South open at Pinehurst, have accepted an enga nt to play an exhibition match in this city on Tuesday, Au- bert Jones, jr., was invited to appear, but yesterday telegraphed that he could not leave Atlanta, and it is probable that the two other layeds to form the foursome will be Fommy Armour, former national open champion, and George Von Elm, former amateur champion. The course over which the exhibition match will be staged has not as yet been selected. — Nine Gains Forfeit Over Delano Spengler Post got back on even terms yesterday in the American Le- gion series, when the Delano Team forfeited to the former, 9 to 0.

Bourke was waiting for him when he got to Scotland Yard, and the stout itmspector had before him a whole sheaf of documents. “How did you get onto Lavinski?” was the first question he asked. “Oh, they told you, did they?” laughed Dick. “I didn’t really get onto him at all, but a young friend of mine offered the suggestion that was the name of the Slough murderer.” “How did she know?” “For the matter of that, how do you know it was a she?” challenged Dick, changing color.

Trading failed to maintain the ter- rific pace set in the recent advance, Sut the day’s volumerwas well above normal. Little‘ attention was paid to the 10 per cent call money rate, which was attributed to heavy month-end disbursements. Opeta- tors for the advance were encouraged by the fact that recent bear attacks — had dislodged little long B. West utilities, which is to be split up 10 for 1 after the issu- ance of valuable stock rights, soared 64% points, to a new high, at 464%, and retained all of its gain... Com- monwealth Edison, another Insuljl concern, soared more than 40 points, to a new high, at 400. Utilities Power & Light B certificates ran up 18 points, to a new high, at 90, but closed at 88. Mohawk é& Hudson jum 10 points, and Electric Bond e Utilities Investors ran up 8 to nearly 14 points in sympathy with the sharp advances in the stocks held by those companies. Directors of Electric In- vestors meet tomorrow and afe ex- “pected to authorize a five-to-one split-up of the stock. Baldwin Locomotive (new) was again active around 65. The new Shenandoah Corporation stock ran into some profit-taking, but was still quoted nearly double the recent offer- ing price. New peak prices for the year were registered by Pilot Radio Tube, Port- land Electric, Cities Service Bank, and a sprinkling of other specialties.

FARMERS UNITE, CLAIM ee ey 7 J 44 Agriculture Will Progress Only by Own Efforts, Board Head Avers. WORK SEEN AS ARDUOUS Blacksburg, Va., July 30 (A.P.).— Virginia farmers themselves must unite and fight their own battles for such odjectives as research and edu- cation for farm people, encouragement of cooperation among farmers, elim- ination of existing inequalities, stand- ardigation of farm products and more intelligent land utilization, Harvey 5. Clapp, of Accotink, Va., president of thé agricultural conference board of Virginia, declared in a report sup- Mittéd today before the State agri- cultural advisory council, ‘The objectives listed by Clapp are recommendations presented to the agricultural commission, and they etate, he said, about as briefly as pos- sible the field of work before the State erence board. Some of the res- ommendations are for cific action afid .@5me for investigation, he said. "The field of activity,” he said, “which appears before the board at the present time shows clearly that some of the things needed to be done can only be done by strong united effort.” Long Study Is Necessary. Clapp said that it was impossible t gain a clear perception of ways and mheans toward these objectives without long study. “That is the weakness,” he con- tinued, “of the farmer’s present po- sition. He has little idea of the pos- sitlé Ways of meeting these needs. Those who are friendly to agriculture in our governmental agencies are often. of necessity, unfamiliar with them . Our educational institutions can not fight our battles, for they are accused of a selfish interest. “The only solution is for farmers to unite; for some of them to give much. time and study to the condi- tions surrounding them, to work with their educational institutions for the od of those institutions and for heitr-awn good. They must work in legisiative matters, with those who have their general good at heart and against those who would turn law- making to selfish ends. “The farmers, through the confer- ence board, have no intention of try- ing to dictate except when their ena- mieg would be unfair. Toward their friends, upright citizens and public Servants, their attitude is just this: work with them; neither to beg nor te demand, but to insist on what is Tight when it is plain and to work out with them what is right when it Is not clear.” Work Will Be Hard. “The work to be done by the con- ference board will be arduous. It ean not be done by an executive committee alone, or by those whom if may engage for the purpose. It wil] require the thought and support of all who have the time and inclina- tion to participate in the task of bettering our conditions. If the is to be a success it must voice the Judgment of all our people.” For research and education for farm ople recommendations in- clude: at the State should assume & materially increased proportion of the support of rural public schools; that the State should make increased appropriations to the extension divi- sion; that educational agencies ar- range for more economic and social education through courses of study in high schools and colleges and 4s- a in evening schools; that the tate should provide more liberally for the establishment and support of county libraries; that the State should make increased appropriations to the Virginia Polytechnic Institute for research and education in various phases of farm activities, and that the State provide adequate support for the Virginia Horticultural Socitey, the Virginia Crop Improvement As- sociation, the State Dairymen’s As- sociation and particularly for the Virginia Poulttry Federation. Cooperative Purchasing Urged. Under “Encouragement of Cooper- ation Among Farmers,” it is recom- mended in part that the cooperative marketing law of 1922 be amended to provide for cooperative purchasing as “as cooperative marketing; that the same law be amended to provide that up to 50 per cent of the busi- nésa May be transacted \fth non- members on a strictly nonprofit basis and that railroad companies be re- quired to permit loading and un- loading in transit by shippers in car- load. lots. Under “Elimination of Existing In- equalities,” ft is recommended that the adjustment of the minimum charge made by power companies for electric current, now made on a monthly basis, to allow for the in- equalities of seasonal use; that the State eliminate as far as possible the sale of farm products from penal farms upon the open market; that the State authorize counties to es- tablish warehouse facilities for assem- bling farm products. Under “Standardization of Farm Products” it is recommended. that the State enact suitable legislation for branding and marking under specified grades additional farm prod- ucts and for proper enforcement, and that the State enact suitable legis- lation for the control of poultry and ample provision be made for enforce- ment by means of a révolving fund. Soil Survey Work Favored. —* “More Intelligent Land Utili- Pp atian” it is recommended that the ee: .goil ey work be expedited. (The said that the board opposed Teclamation by public agencies which. tends to increase surpluses of @ricultural products, and that it vors the governmental purchase of Jands suitable for parks and for re- forestation.) “The following projects,” the re- port Said, “seem to be worthy of thorough investigation: "1.

Blacksburg, Va., July 30 (A.P.).— Seven hundred thousand dollars has accrued to the farmers of Virginia as a result of the land-clearing pro- gram of the agricultural engineering committee, State agricultural ad- visory council, according to the com- mittee report prepared for delivery to the council today by Charles E. Seitz, chairman. The land-clearing program, one of eight on which the committee re- ported progress, included the deliv- ery of 500,000 pounds of surplus war explosives to State farmers at a Sav- ing of $57,000 Farmers who made purchses of the explosives totled 1,853, nd their clearings of new land were 6,788 acres during a three-year period. In addition, stumps were removed from 10,017 acres already in cultivation. According to the estimates in the report, the new land increased in value $250,479, and the cultivated land $277,501. Returns from in- creased production on the cultivated lands from which stumps were fe- moved was estimated as $129,521. To bring about these results, the com- mittee reported that it conducted 169 land-clearing demonstrations which were attended by 4,795 farmers. Virginia Power companies § are serving more than 6,000 farm cus- tomers, as compared to approximate- ly 1,500 in 1925. The committee re- ported in connection with its investi- gations of the adaptbility of power to farm machinery and farm homes. Technical men, representing ‘the State and the power companies, have prepared plan of rural electrifica- tion for Virginia, the report stated, which was submitted to the gov- ernor and passed on by him to the State corporation commission for adoption. Several larger companies, according to the report, are now making extensions under the plan. As a step toward assisting the pow- er companies tn understanding the problems of serving farm customers, the committee reported sponsoring a three-day rural electrification course at Virginia Polytechnic Institute, which was attended by 7’ representa- tives of wer companies. Pour ding power companies in the State have organized service de- partments and several more plan or- ganizing similar departments, the re- port said. Seven agricultural en- gineering graduates of V. P. I: have been employed by the companies to work €irectly with farm customers. Further Progress Reported. The committee reported further: The State geological survey is now at work making a water power sur- vey of the State. A State water | potoked bill has been passed by the gislature and is in effect. An agricultural engineer has been employed by the agricultural experi- ment station to make investigations in farm power and machinery. Studies have been made and are con- tinuing on the combination har- vester-thresher, all-purpose tractor, soy bean harvesting. cultivating methods and drying of grain. An agricultural engineer has been employed -by the extension division to give field assistance to the farm- ers and county agents in farm build- ing problems and numerous farm building plans have been prepared by the extension division. Several thousand such plans have been de- livered to farmers in State. Five hundred water supply sur- veys have been made. Terracing demonstrations have been held in 25 counties with several thousand farmers in attendance. An economic study was made in cooperation with the United States Department cf Agriculture of 100 tile drainage systems on the Eastern Shore. This study covered, the costs and benefits derived from Tile drain- age of approximately 5,000 acres of farm land. The committee reported that no progress has been made on the recom- mendations that an agricultural en- gineering laboratory building be erected at V. P: I. and that provision be made by the experiment station for research in land drainage, soil erosion and farm buildings. TWO VIRGINTANS WIM HONOR AS FARMERS Merit Certificates Are Given Senator J. B. Watkins and Frank S. Walker. THEIR WORK IS PRAISED Blacksburg, Va., July 30 (A.P.).— State Senator J. B. Watkins nd Frank 8S. Walker, of Orange, were presented certificates of merit in ag- riculture at a joint meeting tonight of the Institute of Rural Affairs and State Farmers Institute held in the War Memorial Gymnasium here. Dr. Julian A. Burruss, president of Vir- ginia Polytechnic Institute, made the presentations. For the last few years the board of visitors of V. P. I, upon the rec- ommendation of President Burruss and the agricultural faculty, has se- lected two Virginians who have con- tributed the most to the advance- ment of agriculture in the State. To these two so honored certificates of merit in agriculture are presented at the annual meeting of the State Farmrs Institute. Former Gov. West- moreland Davis, president of the Virginia Farmers Institute, and John R. Hutcheson, director of the Insti- tute of Rura] Affairs, spoke tonight. In making the presentation Dr. Burruss briefly cited the achieve- ments of the two honored Virginians. Senator Watkins is a native of Pow- hatan County, and for some years was owner and manager of one of the largest nurseries in the Gouth. He was active in the work of the Virginia Horticultural Society in the early days of that organization. He organized the Chesterfield County Fair and was for more than sixteen years its president; he was also presi- dent of the old Virginia Fair, serv- ing in this capacity for two terms in the nineties. Elected First in 1906. Mr. Watkins was elected to the State Senate in 1906 and served for two consecutive terms. He was pa~ tron of the bill for the reorganization of the State health department. In 1927 Mr. Watkins was again elected to the State Senate and was named by Gov. Byrd as a member of the State Agricultural Commission. In 19 he was appointed by Gov. Montague as a member of the board of visitors of V. P. I., and with the exception of one term has served continuously in this capacity. He was largely instrumental in bringing the extension work to V. P. I. Not only has he shown interest and ren- dered valuable service to V. P. I. President Burruss said, but he has shown special interest in guiding and developing the work of the crop pest commission and the State live stock sanitary board. He served for a number of years as chairman of the executive committee of the V. P. I. board. Frank 8S. Walker, of Orange, was uated from V. P. I. as an honor student in the class of 1905. After leaving school he assumed active operation of his father’s farm, and since that time has been in charge of the Woodberry Forest School farm. He has also purchased a large farm of his own in Madison County, where he makes his home. Owns Fine Holstein Herd. Mr. Walker became interested in dairying, and by able management built up one of the. best herds of Holstein cattle in Virginia, having several State record cows in his herd. In his community and throughout a large number of counties he is rec- ognized as one of the most practical and efficient farmers. In addition to living on and oper- ating his own farm, Mr. Walker has been interested in public affairs, especially ferm organizations. He has served two terms as president of the Virginia Dairymen’s Association, besides being president of his own local breeders’ club and farmers’ exchange. Probably his most out- standing public accomplishment in agriculture has been his administra- tion es president of the Maryland- Virginia Milk Producers Association, a cooperative organization of 12,000 dairy farmers of northern Virginia and southern Maryland. Mr. Walker was president of the association at the time it needed a strong, capable leader to place it among the out- standing successful cooperative mar- keting associations. Oe OF CERTIFIED SEED ON INCREASE Report Is Made to Virginia Agriculture Advisory Council. CROP ROTATION GAINS Blacksburg, Va., July 30 (AP.)— Increasing use of soil improvemént methods and certified seed by Vir- ginia was reported by the committee of agronomy, State agricultural ad- visory council, in a resume for the last five years prepared by submission today to thé advisory council in special session at Virginia Polytechnic Institute. . Basing its conclusions on reports from county agents and lime com- panies estimated that there has been a 94 per cent increase in ground lime- stone used in the State since the beginning of the five-year period. Likewise, it was concluded that 17 per cent more high analysis fertilizer was used in 1927 over the amount used in 1923. There was an increase in crop rota- tion of 17 per cent also, the commit- tee deduced from reports from county agents. Increase in use of seeds recom-~- mended by the State experiment station and the agronomy department was 12 per cent, based on reports from State seedmen. Other seeds recommended by the Virginia Crop Improvement Associa- tion showed gains, while declines were shown in sales of seed not included in the recommendations. “Based on the average of the amounts of the seedmens’ sales in 1927 and the county agent’s estimates of the 1928 crops, it seems safe to state that at least 14 per cent of the 1928 crop of the State was V. P. I. No. 181 wheat, 10 per cent V. P. I. No. 142 wheat and 5 per cent V. P. I. No. 1 oats,” the report declared. The committee’s survey showed that the average yield from certified wheat seed was 19.1 bushels per acre, while the average State yield (all seetis) was but 13.4 bushels per acre for the year 1924. The same year the average yields from certified corn seeds was 36.5 bushels against 21 bushels for the whole State. In 1927, the average for certified wheat was 20.4 bushels against 122 for the State, and the average from certi- fied corn 883 bushels and for the State 29.5 bushels. Improved Market For Apples Shown Program Over Five-Year Period Explained to Farm Experts. Blacksburg, Va., July 30 (A.P.).— How Virginia’s apples have found their way into new and lafger mar- kets through methods put forward by the horticultural committee of the State Agricultural Advisory Council was set forth in a report prepared for presentation this morning at a special meeting of the council by F. A. Mots. The report covered achievements during the operation of the five-year program of agriculture and Was pre- sented in connection with the first annual meeting of the Institute of Rural Affairs in session here. The chief accomplishment elong horticultural lines, according to .the report, was the passage of the com- pulsory grading and- branding law, which has standardized Virginia ap- ples on the open market and has made them much more desirable to fancy buyers. In connection with standard- ization the committee reported that it had given assistance in the con- structure or remodeling of more than 75 individual agd community packing houses. This year plans have been furnished and assistance given in the construction of from 15 to 20 more. Adults May Compete in Doll Show. Lynchburg, Va., July 30 (Special) — The annual doll show of the depart- ment of pla he day is ex from adults, who will compete the. oldest and most unique dolls. A ‘playlet, “A Doll's Wedding,” will be given in connection with the show, which is to be held at Miller Park. ¢ EWS OF LATEST HAPPENINGS IN M ‘HETIL TOE Hn IN FFT DISTRICT Farm Prospects Reported Fairly Good in Reserve Bank Summary. EMPLOYMENT JS BETTER Richmond, Va., July 80 (A.P.).— Prospects for agriculture, on the whole, appear to be fairly good in’ the Fifth Federal reserve district, ac- cording to the monthly business and agricultural summary issued by the Richmond Federal Reserve Bank. Retail trade in June, in so far as reflected in department store sales, was better than in June, 1928, and aggregate sales for the first half year exceeded sales the first half of 1928, but wholesale trade in June was less than in June last year in All lines for which figures were available except shoes. There was a moderate credit expan- sion in the Fifth district during June with member banks increasing their’ outstanding loans and also their re- discounts at the reserve bank. At the middle of July the bank was redis- counting less for city bank membeis than a year ago, but country bank members were borrowing slightly more. Debits to individual accounts during the four weeks ended July 10 were .seasonably larger than during the preceding four weeks, and also were larger thin for the same period of 1928. Deposits in both mutual sav- ings and member banks rose during June, but at the end of the month were lower than on June 30, 1928. Business wae ae Fewer. Business failures in the district were less for the first six months than for the corresponding period of 1928, but the month of June was higher in insolvencies and liabilities than any recent June. There were 138 business failures in the district during June, coming next to June. 1927, in total, when 142 were listed, with liabilities of $2,534,991, or ex- ceeding all other June figures since 1924. During the six-month period total failures numbered -825, involving $13,436,178, compared to 840 insolv- encies, involving $18,914,488, the first half of 1928. Employment is about up to the sea- sonal level and is better than it was a year ago. ? The textile situation did not im- prove. materially during June and early July, but continued better than for the same period of last year. Cotton prices declined about $2.50 a bale last month but recovered dur- ing the third week in July. Coal production in June this year was perhaps a little above the aver- age for this time of year, and total production for the first half was ahead of the same period of last year. Durham. N. C., ranked third in in- creased debits shown to individual accounts:in clearing house banks of the district, having 8.1 per cent to follow Newport News, with 8.8 and Washington, with 8.7 per cent. Industrial plants of the district operated full time with the exception of a few textile mills. Building and other construction work continued to employ nearly all workers dependent upon such activities and in the cler- ical field alone did there appear a marked surplus of labor. Raleigh Leads in Building. Only 12 of 32 cities in the district reporting on building operations showed increases in June, 1929, over June, 1928. Raleigh, N. C., led the North State cities with an increase of 108 per cent, the increase in value of buildings this year being $151,296 compared to the 1928 figure. Wil- mington, N. C., was the only other city in that State to show an in- crease, total value in excess of the 1928 June figure being $28,650 for a per cent gain of 98.8. Textile mills of the fifth district nearly all operated at full time dur- ing June. No new labor troubles developed but several had machinery tied up due to atrikes. The district mills used 243,682 bales of cotton, North Carolina leading with 130,736 and South Carolina coming next with 104,786. ‘The figure was better than for June. 1928, when only 222.235 bales were used. For the third successive month June consumption figures in the fifth district failed to gain in percentage of national consumption. June, 1929, consumption was 42.7 per cent of national consumption compared with 43.5 per cent of national consumption in June a year ago. Cotton consumption in American mills during June totaled 570,281 bales, compared to 668,229 bales used in May this year and 510,399 in June, 1928. The first acreage report of the Department of Agriculture, issued July 8, estimated the area in culti- vation at 3.2 per cent larger than the acreage in 4928, the largest increase being from Alabama westward. Vir- ginia, with 89,000 acres, showed the largest increase, 10 per cent, in the fifth district; North Carolina with 1,911,000 shows an increase of 1 per cent and South Carolina with 2,410,- 000 acres, had a decrease of 3 per cent. Tobacco Acreage Large. North Carolina’s tobacco acreage was reported at 5 per cent larger than that of 1928, but the condition of $9 per cent on July 1 was 3 per cent be- low that of July 1, 1928. Burley to- bacco in the extreme western coun- ties showed the best condition. Cur- ing of tobacco is well under way in many eastern counties and the sec- tion included in the South Carolina pelt is ready for marketing. An increase of 1 per cent in total acreage in North Carolina is showh by the summary, the increases of other crops in most instances having been made at the expense of corn. The condition of the corn crop was better July 1 than a year before, and the acreage was about 2 per cent smaller. Small grain crops showed yields this year appreciably above the average for most years, and the quality of the grain was good. Peanuts show a condition of 69 cent of norm}yon July 1, on an ge 8 per cent iar- ger than in 1928. Fruit crops are generally short in North Carolina. The early commercial Irish potato crop was cut almost 50 per cent tn acreage, but the yleld was considered very good and prices were fairly sat- isfactory.
