MAN DROWNED AG HIS FRIENDS TRY TO AID HIM George Thaler, Chemist, Dives Into Patuxent to Retrieve Hat. OTHERS IN PARTY REPORT HIS DEATH Fishing-Trip Companions Send Telegram to the Youth’s Mother. DELAY IN FILING NOTICE EXPERIENCED Pair Who Were on Launch Return to City and Re- port to Landlord. George Thaler, 29, chemist in the department of enamels at the Bureau of Standards, was drowned in the Patuxent River, near Solomon, Md.. early yesterday, friends with whom he was fishing reported when. they returned yesterday afternoon. Willard Crisswil, 22, of 3432 Con- necticut avenue, also a chemist at the Bureau of Standards, a member of the fishing party, said that Thaler was drowned when he dived into the river to recover a hat which had blown into the water. He related that Thaler had been saying he was going to take a swim, so when the hat, which belonged to another mem- ber of the party, blew into the river he hurriedly removed his trousers and dived into the stream. The current carried both Thaler and the hat about 100 yards down the river, he continued, but Thaler retrieved it only to discover that he conld not swim egainst the current. Crisswell said that he seemed to be in no immeédiate danger, so they shouted for him to “take, it easy” and they would pick him up in the boat. Crisswell declared they hur- Triedly drew in their lines, lifted the anchor, turned the 28-foot launch around and went to his rescue. When they finally overtook Thalen, who was drifting with the current, Criss- ~well said it was evident Thalen was almost exhausted, and before they could rescue him he went down and did not come up. ‘He estimated it took them about 4 minutes to turn the launch around and get to Thalen. River 50 Feet Deep. According to Crisswell, the river is about 50 feet deep at the place where the man drowned. As there is no Coast Guard on the river, Criss- well] said they did not know what to do, but went to Solomon, consult- ed with a physician and then re- ported the tragedy to a justice of the peace. He declared the justice told them there was nothing they could do to recover the body, as the river was entirely too deep to dredge. He advised them, Crisswell sald, to re- port the accident to the man’s fam- ily. Acting on this advice, he con- tinued, they returned to Washington, went to the home of F. T. DeBerritz, 1429 Twenty-first street northwest, where Thalen lived, secured the name of the youth's mother, who lives in Calmar, Iowa, and wired her. Crisswell said that J. O. Burton. also a chemist at the Bureau of Standards, and another man whom he did not know, went with Thaler and him on the fishing trip. He said they drove Thaler’s car, and arrived at Solomon Island about 7:30 p. m. Soon after arriving. he related, they met another four-man fishing party, and they joined that group in rent- ing the launch on which they spent the night fishing. He declared he did not know any of the members of the other party. DeBerritz said the boys told him e@bout the drowning about 2 p. m. yesterday, and asked for the mother’s address so they could wire her. Later he reported the case to Washington police, and he also wrote the mother a special delivery letter telling all he knew about the reported drown- ing. Crisswell Explains. He declared Thaler left late Sat- urday saying he was going fishing. DeBerritz said he notified police be- cause he had only the story of the boys who were practical strangers to him, and he had noticed they had returned neither Thaler’s car nor his clothes. Crisswell, however, explained that they stopped at the Bureau of Stan- dards when they returned and washed up, then used his car in go- ing to the place where Thaler roomed. He also said both he and Thaler usually left their cars in a shed at the bureau, and he had merely used his own car because he was more accustomed to driving it. According to DeBerritz, Thaler was an excellent young man. He was studious, DeBerritz said, and had no bad habits. He had lived wiih DeBerritz for more than a year. * Both Thaler and Crisswell are civ) | service men at the bureau. Criss- well said his home was in Waco, Tex. at the Kingsley High School during the regular term, and at present u— pens.» in the summer school. had DeBerritz is a language teacher | Plunge Down Stairs Fatal to Midshipman Son of Maj. A. B. Drum, Appointed from District in 1927, Leaps from Officer’s Side to Death in Dormitory with Suicidal Intent, Annapolis Report Says. Special to The Washington Post. Annapolis, Md., Aug. 4.—What was reported to Be a jump with suicidal intent down a marble etairway at Bancroft Hall dormitory, at the Naval Academy proved fatal late last night to Andrew Boggs Drum, jr., of the class of 1931. The youth, who was 20 year sold, died in the Naval Hospital at 3:40 o’clock this morning. While a great deal of mystery sur- rounds the cizcumstances of Drum’s death, Rear Admiral 8. S. Robison, superintendent of the academy, ad- mitted he understood that the youth had “deliberately fumped” frédm the railing of the stairway while in the company of an officer of the school. Drum is the son of Maj. Andrew B. Drum, of the U. 8, Marine Corps on duty in China. He was admitted to the academy oh June 14, 1927, from Washington, as an appointee of President Coolidge. He formerly lived in the National Capital and had a circle of friends there. An investigation into the midship- man’s death was launched immedi- ately by a board headed by Com- mander Robert B. Rogers. A formal report will be made tomorrow morn- ing. No reason for Drum’s act could be learned from academy officials to- night Admiral Robinson said that be could not disclose any more details regarding the case until after the board had reported. He said that he did not know the name of the offi- cer with the youth at the time and he declined to reveal why the boy was in the company of the officer. Drum roomed by himself, it was learned, and may have been the vic- tim of moroseness. The report of Drum's death first was to the effect that it was acct- dental. He was reported to have taken ill during the night and was on his way to receive medical treat- ment. The fall of virtually one story, from near the top of the stairway, resulted in several skull fractures and severe concussions, The youth did not regain consciousness.

Considerable excitement was caused by the response of the fire companies on the four separate alarms and by the clouds of smoke which were fan- ned high into the air, attracting hundreds of motorists and pedes- trians who lined the nearby streets for several blocks. Traffic was block- ed completely at the time of the fire as far distant as Pennsylvania avenue and M street, and automo- biles for a considerable dstance were held up on both sides of the Key Bridge until the blaze was declared out.

Twenty minutes later she had maneuvered gracefully into t@ wind, sinking nearer and nearer to the earth until the landing ropes were dropped with a soft hiss frgm the cabin and pounced upon by the waiting ground crew 50 feet below. Another five minutes. and the spreading network of landing lines had brought the Zeppelin safely to the ground in a brilliant diffused glare of a battery of flood lights on the edge of the field.

Democracy '™ thinks mighty well of Herbert Hoover as President, apparently, but it is hoping the wicked Republican party will stump its toe. This attitude is aptly illustrated by John Stewart Bryan, uncompromising Democrat and editor of the Richmond News Leader. Mr. Bryan told the writer he hoped the Republican party would be split next time like it was in 1912, with the Progressives bolting on the tariff issue. This, he said, was the outstand- ing hope for Democracy, “Who will be your Woodrow Wilson this time? Is he in sight?” I asked. “Well, there is Owen D. Young,” said ‘Don't any of your Virginia people like high tariff?” I asked. “Down in Norfolk I found an enthusiastic de- mand for high duties on peanuts, and also protection for the new cement mill there.” “Why, they even want duties on barrel staves,” said Mr. Bryan, con- temptuously, and then, with consid- erable sadness: “Everybody seems to Want to make all the money they can get.” Whereupon he rushed back in his .terpiece assailing the Hawley bill. .’ s s °® R. BRYAN may go a little fur- ther than some others, in Vir- ginia, but he has plenty of company. Down here the doctrine of free trade is not very far behind re- ligion. To make money by a pro- tected industry, as the folks do up in Pennsylvania or in Onio, may be all right for some outsiders, but it is a distinct surrender of personal integ- rity for Virginians. Most Democrats around Richmond are disgusted with the Norfolk section, which not only by | elected a Republican member of the House last November, but is demand- ing tariff duties regardless of political lines. Richmond is simply flabbergasted that a daughter of the almost sainted William Jennings Bryan should have voted for the Hawley bill in the House. The fact that her district and State are eager for high duties on early fruits and vegetables coming from Cuba and Mexico is no excuse in the eyes of the Richmond Democrats. Norfolk Democrats view the situa- tion just a little differently. A flood of foreign peanuts played hob with the prosperity of the surrounding country. So when President Coolidge promised the new Republican con- gressman-elect, Menalcus Lankford, that he would raise the duty on pea- office to dash off another bitter mas-. | free trade and personal integrity are It Politics By CARTER FIELD= nuts from 5 to 6 cents there was con- | siderable local enthusiasm. And when Lankford, with others, had the House raise that duty to 7 cents he became almost a popular hero. Also Norfolk for years has been a disappointed town. With a wonderful harbor, radiating raltlroad lines and other natural advantages, the folks there have always counted on eventu- ally rivaling New York, but somehow the growth has been rather slow. Just two new industries have come to Nor- folk since the war. One of these was a Ford assembly plant and the other a cement plant. This Jatter is operat- ing at two-thirds capacity, while the City of Richmond and the State of North Carolina are buying foreign cement! see @ VEN Norfolk has not gone as far along this route of “intelligent selfishness,” as the protectianists call it, as has Florida. In the House the Floridans were willing to vote for duties to help other sections in order to get votes to protect them. In short, they were willing t¢ logroll. Norfolk has not gone that far. Richmond stands with Senator Car- ter Glass, one of the best possible illustrations of local sentiment that almost synonymous. Senator Glass has long been a stockholder in the Gla- morgan Pipe & Foundry Co., which manufacturers cast iron pipe and other things at Lynchburg. Bankers here tell me he has just recently acquired control of this company, which is a strong one, although not making much, if any, profit at the moment. Up in Washington there is a strong fight to put a tariff on cast iron pipe. Senator Glass is strongly opposed to it. He has not attempted to capitalize this apparent sacrifice of personal interest to principle. . Far from it. As a matter of fact this is probably the first time Mr. Glass’ in- terest in a cast iron pipe plant has been printed. But there you have a very interesting viewpoint, to say the least. Senator Kendrick, of Wyoming, who votes for all the tariff schedules so other senators will be sure to vote to protect Wyoming products, probably could not understand it. Senator Glass probably puzzles considerable over how Senator Eendrick justifies himself. Grover Cleveland once said the tariff was a local issue. In Richmond it is not regarded by old line Democrats as anything short of a test of in- tegrity. CAMPAIGN VIRGINIA PRIMARY WILL SEE START, NOT END CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. ts they had long been looking for. There of this feeling in the the attacks delivered Gov. Byrd The bishop had long been a pein in the belligerant senator’s neck, and he never gave Gov. Byrd any appetite, to say the least. There is a serious question now as ‘to whether the viciousness of the Glass-Byrd attacks was not more mo- tivated by this old dislike of Cannon than by sound political judgment. And it is.on this viciousness that the bishop is now building his campaign. “They called us bigots and ignora- muses, didn’t they?” Cannon’s lieu- }tenants are already saying as they back their auditors into the corner at the coun stores, and Caynon is to say the same thing when he gets under way after Tuesday. The attacks of Byrd and Glass upon the bishop have been likened to the heavy loser in a poker game. He finally turned in despair to an on- looker and whispered, “I haven’t enough money to pay off, what would you do?” “I think,” the onlooker whispered back, “I’d turn over the table and break the game up in a fight.” There is the widely prevalent be- lief that Byrd and Glass, harassed so often by the bishop, decided to end the game up in an all-round fight.

The States which have enjoyed the two-party system for years will un- doubtedly look upon Virginia’s debut in the big leagues as a sign of prog- ress. The regular Democrats in the State can see it as nothing but the work of the devil himself. Democrats Feel Handicapped. The Democrats feel that they are handicapped because the change has come so suddenly that the people have not been educated up to the two-party system, or rather the way to 7 under it. Their great worry” is that those who vote for the loser in Tuesday's pri- mary will not come to rescue of the party nominee next November. Here- tofore everybody has been democratic, so to speak, and they fought them- selves on the personalities and in- dividual issues of the candidates’ in the primary. The primary was the end. It did pot determine party is- sues. It simply determined the is- sues of the ®ndividual candidates. Sheulad Mapp lose Tuesday the question is sapere those who sup- ported him will not accept their. de- feat as final and have no further interest in the cam a ge Additional weight is given to pes agree by the fact that Mapp and the Repub- lican-Cannonite candidate, William Mosely Brown, are politically so much alike.

The Mapp followers will feel doubly aggrieved if Tuesday’s outcome should turn on the Ninth District, ‘as it may very well do. It is the control of this district by the Byrd organization, in fact, that makes Pollard’s supporters so confident of success. Trading Seen in Ninth.

ANTI-OMITH VOTERS WARNED IN VIRGINIA Chairman of Recalcitrants Says Primary Tomorrow Not for Them. 121 CANDIDATES IN FIELD Voters of Virginia intent on de- feating Democratic party candidates are warned by Frank Lyon, of McLean, Va., chairman the anti-Smith or- ganization in that State, not to ye ticipate in the Democratic primary to be held tomorrow. The statement, made public yester- day by Mr. Lyon, follows: “No independent anti-Smith Demo- crat or any one else inferested in the defeat of the Virginia Democratic machine should vote in the primary being held Tuesday, August 6. Friends of machine candidates are quietly urging anti-Smith Democrats to enter against in November. This is being done by those opposed to the tion and does not the primary and then vote the nominee anti-Smith represent its views.” These precautionary declarations came as Virginia Democrats prepared to go to the polls to register their choice for a length” list of party can- didates, principal among whom the three gubernatorial entrants, in- cluding G. Walter Mapp, Roewell Page and John Garland Pollard.

HARMONY IS PUT FIRST Richmond, Va., Aug. 4 (A.P.).—Un- certainty characterized all political forecasts in Virginia tonight, except in the camps of the candidates them- séives, while voters of all parties looked to Tuesday's Democratic primary for some indication of Democratic strength as well as to a choice among the three candidates for the nomination for governor. Admittedly Democrats have sought to avoid any serious division of senti- ment in the primary campaign in order to solidify Democratic voters behind the nominee in the general election conftest with the coalition of Republicans ané anti- Smith Democrats. The candidates themselves have —— party harmony above every- thing in campaign speeches although clear cut lines have been drawn on @ few State issues. Short Ballot Attacked. The “short ballot” amendments sponsored by the Byrd administra- tion and adopted last June, have afforded the candidates their chief int of difference. Johfii Garland Pollard, regarded as the administra- tion candidate, has defended the amendments and declared the “short ballot” not an issue in the campaign, while G. Walter Mapp, a former senator, has made an attack on the amendments as a dangerous centrali- zation of power the central theme in his campaign. Rosewell Page, while announcing opposition to t short ballot, has not made his appeal on this basis. The ‘short ballot” provides for the appointment by the governor of three former elective officers—treasurer, su- perintendent of education and com- missioner of agriculture—until 1932, when the legislature is to decide how the offiicials are to be named. Vote Figures Awaited. A total vote in the primary equal to the vote in the Bryd-Mapp cam- paign in 1925, when 175,000 baliots were cast, would be regarded ag her- alding the return to the party of a large number of Democrats who were allied with the anti-Smith movement last fall. Despite a record-breaking total vote in the 1928 presidential campaign, Alfred E. Smith, the Deta- ocratic nominee, received only 141,- 000 votes, or approximately the same as the vote given John W. Davis four years before. Hoover received 165,- 000 votes, thus throwing the State into Republican ranks for the first time in four decades. Democrats insist, however, that a relatively small vote in the primary would not indicate Democratic weak- ness, since a feeling of apathy has been noticeable in the primary.

Purchase of the first parcel of land for the new municipal center marks a turning point in local affairs. The site is not large, having a frontage of but 25 feet on Penn- sylvania avenue, but its purchase signalizes the tangible beginning of work upon a proj- ect that has been advocated for years. Nego- tiations have been begun for the purchase of another -larger parcel located within the area. Officials of the District government have embarked upon a program of purchas- ing such land as may be obtained at reason- able prices, leaving for a later date such con- demnation proceedings as may be advisable. As parcels of sufficient size are secured it is planned to proceed with the construction ‘of the units that will go to make up the center; and, in the meantime, it is hoped to house some of -the activities of the local govern- ment in the newly acquired structures. Washington is gratified by the prospect that work upon the center will be no longer delayed. The District Building is badly over- crowded. Several of the departments are working in quarters so cramped that their efficiency has been impaired, and practically every department has requested larger quar- ters. In addition, the Federal building pro- gram has necessitated the dispossession of several activities of local government, notably the House of Detention, and these activities are at present housed in makeshift, unsatis- factory quarters. Taxpayers are being _ Charged for inefficiency made inevitable by overcrowding. The public business will] suf- fer until such time as adequate quarters are found for all departments of the local gov- ernment. There is in hand an appropriation of $3,000,000 for the municipal center, and a request for an additional $4,000,000 is now to be made. While local officials are not to be criticized for planning to postpone condemna- tion of otherwise unobtainable parcels until the last, it would seem that greater progress might be made if the land were obtained on the basis of need rather than availability. An outstanding need, for example, is a new court structure. It already has been decided where that building will be situated. Why r@hould not the necessary land be obtained forthwith, by. purchase, if possible, or by condemnation, if necessary, so that work upon the structure may be got under way? Probably it will be found that the build- ings acquired by purchase will be ill-suited for use by any of the overcrowded depart- ments of the local government. The build- ings on the larger site under negotiation will] at best provide makeshift homes for crowd- ed departments. It would be the part of economy to acquire the various parcels as they can be used, and to get actual construc- tion on some of the units under way as soon as possible. MOTORING BECOMES SAFER. The Department of Commerce recently published figures showing that motor fatali- ties in the large cities are rapidly increasing. A few of the cities reported reductions, but the general trend was upward. It is esti- mated that for the year ended July 13 the average increase in 78 large cities with a total population of 33,000,000 was. 10 per cent. The accident rate is usually higher in urban areas, but the rate of increase is taken to indicate a general gain in motor fatalities. The automobile accident rate is generally’ misunderstood, and no effort seems to be made to give tse public the correct interpre- tation. It is usually inferred that the in- creasing number of accidents means that the motor car is becoming more dangerous. Any examination of the facts will show that such am inference is not well founded. It is_pos- sible to determine the approximate risk per mile traveled on the highways, and these figures put automobile traffic in an entirely diferent light. Thea number of automobiles in operation is growing much more rapidly than the acci- dent rate. In 1917 there were 178 fatalities for every 100,000 cars registered. In 1927 there were but 97 fatalities per 100,000 cars registered. The improvement is still more pronounced when the greater total mileage is considered. “Figures on consumption of gasoline can be obtained from the United States Bureau of Mines. It is estimated that 85 to 90 per cent of all gasoline sold is consumed in auto- mobiles at the rate of about 15 miles per gallon. On this basis it can be shown that 1918 automobiles traveled approximately 070, 000,000 miles)’ One person was killed for every 3,779,000 miles traveled. The mileage more than doubled during the lOllowing five years. In traveling nearly {,000,000,000 miles, a total of 18,211 per- ms lost their lives in 1923. This is a rate f one fatality for every 4,608,000 miles. | the last five years still more remark- able. progress: has been madee The latest estimate available for 1928 is that motors traveled 189,000,000,000 miles, with ap- proximately 29,000 fatalities. This is a rate of one fatality for every 6,511,000 miles. In spite of the present congestion of streets and highways and the multiplication of traf- fic hazards, automobiles are driven almost twice as far per fatality today as they were ten years ago. The death rate can hardly be considered high in relation to mileage cov- ered, There is much room for improvement, but in the effort to cut down the number of accidents there is no reason for ignoring the fact that the individual automobile is safer at present than ever before. GRAF ZEPPELIN ARRIVES. The flight of the Graf Zeppelin from Friedrichshafen to Lakehurst was in marked contrast to the flight attempted earlier in the summer. On the latter trip she had little more than reached the open sea when trou- ble developed in her motors and her com- mander, Dr. Eckener, was forced to tarn her about and beat his way back against adverse winds to Friedrichshafen. Lest Wednesday night, however, Dr. Eckener ordered the Graf out of her hangar despite the fact that the best of weather was not forecast and yesterday, after an uneventful flight of up- ward of 6,000 miles he landed her safely at Lakehurst. The flight completed yester- day was, in its essential elements, similar to an ordinary, routine crossing of the Atlantic by surface vessel. Just what the future of the dirigible may be, experts are not willing to say. The lighter-than-air craft enthusiasts are loud in their praise of the potentialities and capabil- ities of the dirigible, and the heavier-than- air craft supporters insist that the dirigible is bunglesome, uneconomic and generally im- practicable. Those who have no prejudice, however, are waiting to be shown. They realize that the dirigible has certain points of superiority and that the airplane has others and they are inclined to believe that there will be a place in future air merchant marines for craft of both types. Of recent years, of course, the airplane has come in for major attention. The dirigible is a German development, inyented by a German and ex- perimented with almost exclusively by Ger- mans until the war. Following the war Ger- many was unable, economically and by vir- tue of the terms of the peace treaty to con- tinue building dirigibles and it is only re- cently that work with lighter-than-air craft has been resumed. Dr. Eckener has succeeded Count Zeppelin, not only as chief of the Zeppelin works, but also as the foremost lighter-than-air craft authority. It is his lot to prove to the world the worth of the Zeppelin. That the flight the Graf Zeppelin completed yesterday con- stituted a dramatic demonstration of the worth of the ship goes without saying. If the round-the-world flight, next on schedule, is completed as successfully and as easily, Dr. Eckener with his Graf Zeppelin will have convinced many that the dirigible is not the ungainly, impracticable thing it is so fre- quently painted. AIR MAIL DEVELOPMENT. Airplanes now Hy 80,000 miles daily, carrying mail, passengers and express be- tween 216 cities. Mail planes alone fly 50,- 000 miles every day across 41 States and into Canada, Mexico and Central America. This announcement by the Aeronaytical Chamber of Commerce has a close relationship to the statement by Postmaster General Brown that the air mail may soon be restored to Govern- ment operation. Government contracts for handling mail have been important factors in developing the existing 30,000 miles of air- ways in this country. But now they are established the handling of mail may become an auxiliary activity. The Government is losing large sums of money in transportation of air mail. Post- master General Brown has notified air mail contractors that some change in the present’ arrangement will be necessary to cut down the postoffice deficit. The plan he now sug- gests is similar to that in operation for rail- way mail. The Government pays the rail- roads on the basis of space used. Whether or not air mail has developed to an extent where this system would be practical is problematical, but a similar arrangement will no doubt be adopted within a few years. Another suggestion which appears on its face to be out of harmony with the ad- ministration’s efforts to reduce the postal deficit is that the postage rate for air mail be reduced to 2 cents. The reduction from 10 to 5 cents brought with it an enormous increase in the amount of air mail carried, and a further reduction might do likewise Postal authorities have intimated that the time is not far distant when practically all first-class mail will be transported by air. If further reduction of the postage rate would substantially increase patronage, it might be found practical to inaugurate the railway mail system on air transport lines in the near future without any loss of revere, UNCLE SAM, PILOT. The performance of the steamship Bremen is a fine illustration of the adage that where there is a will there is a way. When it is considered that as a result of the World War Germany was practitally stripped of her sea-going tonnage, her pres- ent position in the maritime field is a won- derful accomplishment. Still more wonderful is the story of Uncle Sam, pilot extraordinary. In the decade end- ing with 1914 he carried about 10 per cent of the total value of his foreign trade. In the decade just concluded he carried an average of 36 per cent, and this in face of the fact that the value of the trade increased over 700 per cent. In the decade ended with 1914 the average value of the trade was $300,000,000, while in the decade just con- cluded the average value was over $2,500,- 000,000. What a stupendous business American water-borne foreign commerce has become is illustrated by the fact that during the fiscal year 1928, 5,100 vessels of 23,000,000 gross tons, flying the flags of 28 countries, participated in the trade during the year, transporting 1,750,000 passengers and 100,- 000,000 tons of cargo valued at nearly $8,-’ — — — — 000,000,000, the total passenger and freight revenues reaching $1,000,000,000. The performance of Uncle Sam as a pilot for American shipping is all the more re- markable when it is remembered that in 1914 the American people were not interested in the maintenance of the merchant marine. The World War brought the realization of the fact that a country with a coast line, par- ticularly one extending over 7,000 miles, with the finest natural harbors in the w®drld, must have ships. World commerce is domi- nated by ships, for there is no prospect that tonnage will be moved otherwise than in ships. Starting practically from zero as a ship- owner, the United States, after the war, found itself involved in the shipping busi- ness to the extent of being the greatest owner of ships in the World. At one time it had under its jurisdiction in vessels con- tracted for, requisitioned, commandeered, seized, transferred, chartered and purchased, 4,500 ships of over 17,500,000 gross tons. Uncle Sam, pilot, is to be congratulated on his achievements since he focused his mind on the need of an American merchant marine. When he announced that he would devote his war fleet to peace purposes he was greet- ed with derision and offered all kinds of ad- vice, a common suggestion being that he had better sink his ships and save his money. The task was at first glance seemingly im- ‘possible. The ships were built and acquired for emergency purposes and were ill-adapt- ed for peace-time needs. Against the United States were the world’s maritime powers, with the knowledge and mechanism of suc- cessful maritime service. In 1922 it was said that the world was over-tonnaged by 12,000,000 gross tons, but from that time to 1928 there were built 1,600 ships of 10,- 000,000 gross tons for oagan service, of’ which the United States built only 2% per cent. These modern ships gave a decided advan- tage to America’s competitors. That Uncle Sam succeeded so-.well in the circumstances is evidence that American shipowners, and operators, exporters and im- porters have cooperated splendidly with the Government. The pilot has not yet com- pleted his job, but he has built the ways and laid the keel for modern tonnage that will earry the greater portion of America’s com- merce in its own ships. Another Hollywood actress marries a banker, but then it’s quite according to the modern trend to link production and man- agement. A record number of marriage licenses were issued in Reno during the first half of the year. It will be news to many that Reno makes ’em as well as breaks ’em. With 1,000,000 model A’s produced since February, where is the man who hailed the abandonment of model T as a blessing to civi- lization? It’s about time for some dry to challenge President Hoover’s suspension of the cruiser building program as a blow to prohibition. A rattlesnake was discovered in President Hoover's fishing camp. Maybe it was a bis navy man in disguise. | GOLF: A LARGER. HOLE? By GEOFFREY BRERETON, In a Letter to the London Times. The suggestion made by a correspondent in your columns to increase the size of the hole in golf tends, as al] developments in golf of recent years, to magnify the advantage of length over accuracy. On the average course there are usually’ about five holes which the medium hitter can not, but the “‘tiger’” may, reach in 2. The “tiger’s” second shot, being a full one, is rarely dead, and his shorter opponent may hope, by a superlative approach and one brave putt, to get his “‘birdie’” 4 and a half. This represents perfection on his part; he could do no better. Should the long-hitter put his second shot by the pin, or hole out from a longer distance for 3, this also is perfection for him, and, his standard being higher than the other’s, he deserves the hole. But if you enlarge the hole by 1 inch or 1% inches, as suggested, you make it too easy for the long-hitter to hole out from 6 or 7 yards, without needing to be perfectly accurate either in his approach or his putt, and this means that ordinarily good play by him beats superlatively good play by the shorter man, who still can not hope for better than a 4. If you eliminate uncertainty on the greens you destroy the essence of golf; for the best and most sporting feature of the game is that a player who is outclassed on the tee may yet retrieve himself by skillful play near the hole. It may be argued that the above is not a necessary. consequence of enlarging the hole, but I would ask your correspondent to reflect how many 4 yard putts he would have miissed given an extra half-iach on each side of the hole, and—what is equally importaut —an extra inch at the back of it to drop into. Is it reasonable that an approach to within 4 yards of the hole should be almost as dead as one which stops within 4 feet? How many hundreds of those putts which now slide past the edge of the hole would, in the new order of things, drop in, and bring an undeserved sense of satisfaction—unde- served because they were not struck with absolute accuracy? The real question which your correspond- ent raises is whether putting is to be con- sidered as a definite department of the game or as an irksome necessity. I believe that the greate majority of golfers, if they con- sider the matter dispassionately, will decide that itis the former. The disgust occasioned by missed putts is great, but it is easily counterbalanced by the pleasure of hearing a true putt drop in the hole, and if we en- large the hole this pleasure would grow hol- low, since it could be achieved by slovenly methods. A half-inch increase in diameter would be a niggardly compromise that would satisfy none. If any change were made, it must be a definite one of at lgast an inch. This, as I have tried to show, would be a heavy handi- surely deserves. an occasional victory, even in championships. cap to the medium hitter, who, on his day, | _THE WASHINGTON POST: MONDAY.

Ship captains have re- ported sailing through immense schools of salmon at sea, the fish headed north. The fish were so near the surface that their backs were at times out of water. A similar situa- tion was reported in 1903, when ves- sels arriving at Astoria told of passing through schools of fish; then, July 28, the fish reached the mouth of the river and swarmed in like an invad- ing army. The fishermen had all they could take care of and the sal- mon packers were swamped to such an extent that they sold carloads of raw fish at 3 cents a pound to get rid of them. JUST FOLKS By EDGAR A.

(Copyright, 1929.) The Free Horse Ridden Too Hard Must Despise the. Rider. By ROBERT QUILLEN== YOUNG man who was respected by the community went away without the formality of farewells and left his wife to fend for herself. Without waiting to hear his side of the story or look for an explana- tion, the community reversed its opinion and expressed its frank contempt. That is the usual public reaction in America, for we are a — ruled by sentiment rather than reason and our training in the niceties of chivalry prompts us to blame the man and excuse the woman. But a violent effect indicates a violent cause, and a man who is decent and “‘square”’ does not become a violator of contracts and a shirker of duty without reason. In any community in America the student of our times will find numerous young husbands who have sufficient reason to resent the bonds that hold them. Their wives are useless clothes racks—lazy, spoiled and selfish burdens who take all they can get and give nothing in return. They have no children; they have little work to do; they have no sense of obligation or duty. They get dinner with a can opener, or slice a few olives and spread a little mayonnaise, or go to a restaurant—not because they can not learn to cook, but because they are too indolent to do any work that can: be avoided. By no stretch of the imagination can they be called a help to their husbands. They_are an expense and a handicap—nothing more. And the unfortunate man tied to a woman of that kind must at times say to himself: out her.” He is speaking the literal and exact truth. support a “What do I get out of it? What return does she make for the money she costs me? I was far better off with- He is working to shallow and selfish woman who hasn’t character enough to realize that she'is in honor bound to make a fair return for all he gives her. ’ Of course he is bitter. Doubtless he makes complaint. And doubt- less she, being incapable of a fair or unselfish thought, resents his complaining and retaliates by making his home life a bedlam. Why does -he endure it? Because he has standards of chivalry. Life has cheated him; he is hooked. But a man’s part is to endure and do his duty, hiding his hurts and his shame to protect the fair name of the woman. Those who labor to preserve the institution of marriage should give us a new definition of chivalry and teach the doctrine of fair play. It isn’t a kindness to give an infant sufficient candy to make it sick. If hard knocks are essential to the building of character, it is the —“ of. chivalry to provide the hard knocks.

Even in these enlightened times some farmers do not realize that any place and any food are not entirely suitable for hogs. The scientific hus- that there is profit in a sanitary en- vironment for the hog: as for all ani- mals. Outdoor exercise is especially important for the young pig. Pre- mises occupied by hogs should be thoroughly cleansed at regular in- tervals with slaked lime. In transportation the hog is per- mitted to endure terrible suffering. During a six-month period in which records were kept at nine of the 28,375 dead hogs were received and 38,708 in a more or less crippled con- dition. In getting them to the load- ing point the anim@ls are frequently prodded, kicked and hufried. It is estimated that one hard kick against a hog causes a damage of $75.

A common phenomenon here, despite the incongruity of their ape : pearance in a land whose very name breathes of the cold, the many geysers | and hot springs of the country have not been utilized to the full extent of their possibilities, being harnessed. ~The largest and most famous geyser in the country bears simply the hame Geyser. Occasionally this giant throws a stream of boiling water to a height of 35 to 50 feet. Fifty years ago these outbursts occurred once oF twice daily. Now they are rare. But there are still plenty of natural hot. ‘springs to offer considerable oppor- tunities for their development. Several farms are heated almost en- tirely from hot water, and a school- house is heated by the same method. Another is not only heated by natural hot springs but has a bathing pool filled from the same source. The water also has curative properties, and the children in this school are consequently among the healthiest in a population noted for its health. A third school to be heated on the Keykholt, one of the historic spots of part of the island. This place is men- tioned in saga. The historian and poet, Snorre Sturlason, lived and was killed there in 1241. He was born in 1173 and is considered the first of ancient historians of Iceland. CANADA’S GAME, _ Lacrosse, Canada’s national game, is up against tough, opposition, but it is far from dead, says the Toronto handicapped by lack of suitable play~- ing fields, while the cost of ‘equip- ment places it at a serious disadvan- tage. Given a vacant lot, a ball and a bat, a softball club can get into action on a few minutes notice. But sticks, needs a born financier in charge before operations can start. Moreover, lacrosse is a game that requires strenuous practice and lots clusion of rides in the family car and evenings at the movies. These and other things have op- erated to keep the game under in the cities. Too many restrictive rules have hurt it in the country. But, like the Canedien thistle, it refuses to die.

New York, Aug. 4 (A.P.)—For the first time in the 55 years of His life, William Langwell rode in a taxicab and deposited money in a bank. The money, contained in two pillow slips filled with $1, 85 and $10 bilu and a large. cardboard carton of sil- ver, mostly quarters and half dol- lars, was placed in a bank Saturday - i at the request of the po- ice. Trundling a dilapidated trunk, Langwell rented’ a furnished room early Saturday from Mrs. Mary Sa- luga, of West Twentieth street. An offer to help carry the trunk up- stairs was refused, and Langwell la- bored heavily with it. Several times the trunk slipped and jingled, and Mrs. Saluga feared glass containcd in it had been broken. Passing the open door of her new tenant's room, Mrs. Saluga saw her lodger sitting on the bed counting) what appeared to be a huge fortune. Old and new currency mingled in democratic usion on the bed. On the floor and in the trunk silver was piled in a corner. Saluga called the Twentieth Street Police Station, end Lieut.

Dudley says that five-sixths of the | people who pick up the germs of in- fantile paralysis become carriers of the disease without having any symp- toms. The other sixth is divided into three sub-groups: the abortive, the nonparalytic and the paralytic. The object of quarantine is to prevent the development of all four groups—the symptomliess carriers and the three groups with symptoms—the abortive, the nonparalytic and the. paralytic. The measures of quarantine in gen- eral use are isolation and the exclu- sion of flies. Since infantile. paraly- sis rarely prevails except during the fiy season it is good judgment to see that flies never get to the patient nor to any of his excretions. Two other quarantine measures hive been sug- gested. A few small epidemics have | been proved to have been spread by milk. Therefore, in the infantile paralysis season children should not drink raw milk and people who have been around cases should not milk cows or work in dairies or milk plants. It is well to keep down dust in and |around cases of infantile paralysis. | At one time it was the custom to } ' sprinkle the streets, roadways and yards in the vicinity of cases of in- fantile paralysis. At the present time there is no way to diagnose the carriers of poliomye- lites. This large group, five-sixths of the total, can aot be discovered by any laboratory examination or in any other way. The largest number of cases, in all probability, belongs to what is called the abortive type. These cases usually have a few days of diarrhea, a fever lasting one day, and possibly a little more irritability on the one hand, or sleepiness on the other, than its usual in a simple indigestion. Instead of diarrhea, there may be constipation, or vomiting may take the place of the diarrhea.

Proba- bly the safe policy is to isolate every child who develops diarrhea, consti- pation, slight fever, and symtoms of acidosis during the summer months. The isolation should include protec- tion against flies. There would be some gain from an isolation limited to the two or three days of acute illness. Tomorrow's article will deal with the nonparalytic and the paralytic forms of infantile paralysis. HAS REACHED ADULT AGE, S. L. F. writes: Is there anything that can be done to stimulate growth?

Cyril Tolley Is Only Serious Foreign Contender. By HENRY LITCHFIELD WEST. HE list of entries for the national amateur golf championship to be played on the Pebble Beach course, near Monterey, Calif., begin- ning September 2, released for pub- lication this morning, contains 162 mames. California has naturally the largest percentage of entrants, no less than 55 being registered from that State alone. Altogether there are 97 contestants from States west of the Mississippi, including 9 from Oregon and 4 from Washington. Canada will send three contestants, including Don Carrick and Rose Somerville, for champions, and five are credited Great Britain, although it is notice- able that the name of Philip Perkins, former British amateur. champion, does not appear. Cyril Tolley, present British amateur champion, is the one serious foreign contender, although Lord Charles Hope and Maj: Colin- Campbell are not without SATCU in Great Britain. With a preponderance of Pacific Coast entries, including all the best- known pla of that section, the probability is that the Easterners will be in a minority when the 32 who qualify for match play are announced. 16 Golfers Hold Hope Of the East. At the same time, there are many unexpected additions to the list of Eastern golferé printed in The Post yesterday morning. It is not difficult, with the completed list in evidence, to select sixteen who might be con- sidered as having more than an even | chance to qualify, as follows: Robert T. Jones, Atlanta. , George von Elm, Petroit. Francis Ouimet, Boston. George J. Voigt, New York. Jesse P. Guilford, Boston. D. Clarke Corkran, Philadelphia. Eddie Held, New York. Watts Gunn, Pittsburg.

Y., Aug. 4 (A.P.).—"“Queen” Helen Wills made her first appearance on the courts of the Maidstone Club today, playing two doubles matches 'n the Women’s Invitation Tennis Tour- nament, but her debut for the event was overshadowed by the perform- ances of a group of unranked young- sters. Miss Wills, with Edith Cross, of San Franciscg as her partner, met with a great surprise at the very start when Marie Fensterer, of Engie- wood, N. J., and Genevive Fox, of Southampton, N. Y., ran away. with the first set of their first round match. The Californians rallied af- ter the bad start to win by scores of 1—6, 6—1, 6—1, they then went on to beat a pair of high ranking op- ponents, Mrs. Charlotte Hosmer Chapin, of Springfield, Mass., and Marjorie Gladman, of Santa Monic:, Calif., No. 9 and No. 7 in the na- tional ranking, 6—3; 6—2.

By FRANK H. YOUNG. RESIDENT Clark Griffith, recu- perating from an appendicitis operation, was one of 15,000 who made up the Sab- bath gathering at the Avenue stadium yesterday after- noon and what the Nationals showed him likely sent him back to bed again. A double-header against Bucky Harris’ Tigers was the magnet which brought the largest crowd in many moons to see Johnson's men perform and they lost both games, each one of which left a bad taste in the mouth. Detroit won the first affair, 10 to 5, and then overcame an 8-run Washington lead to take the night- cap, 13 to 1}. Garland Braxton and Earl White- hill started on the mound in the fret fracas, with Myles .Thomas finishing for the Nats after the southpaw had been withdrawn to make room for a pinch hitter. Braxton might have earned the decision but for a bed peg by Jack Hayes in the fourth. At this stage of the proceedings, the Nats were leading 2-0, one was out, and a double-play was in sight. Hayes’ Error Gives Tigers Golden Opportunity. In starting it, he third-sacker threw badly to Myer, and then the hag started hitting in a serious Way, the big blow of the round being a homer by Harry Heilmann with two men on, the drive sending the ball Into the stands in left-center. Had Hayes made this one play properly, the frame would have ended then sane there, and there is no telling Dut what Braxton might have finished out the game in good style. - : Seven pitchers were active’ in 2 second game, Jc..nson using © Burke, Irving Hadley and ane Brown, while Harris started Uhle but latter had to call on Yde, John Prudhomme and. : Carroll.

The former fanned eleven while limiting the Hyattsville sluggers to five hits m the first game, while Roche gave but a pair of singles and whiffed seven in the closing number. After taking a decision beating the first game, Lanham counted four runs in the first inning of the second game to nose out their rivals and get an even break.

Seth The Cossack ||NATS - TIGERS IN FINAL TODAY Johnson Is Undecided on Pitcher; Harris Uses Carroll. By FRANK H. YOUNG. HE Nationals and Tigers end their series here this afternoon in the last Washington appear- ance of Johnson's team untit August 27, following stops at New York and Boston before the Nats go West on their final swing through that sector. Manager Bucky Harris stated last night that he planned to use Owen Carroll, former Holy Cross hurler, on the bill, while Johnson said he did not know to whom he would turn over his mound duties. Carroll pitched to but one batter in the second game yesterday. John- son has no available hurlers who are physically ‘fit and well rested and will have to ask either Brown, Had- ley or Thomas, each of whom saw action yesterday; to do a comeback. Immediately after today’s game, the Nats will hustle to the Union Sta- tion for a train which gets them in the “Big Town” late tonight for the players will have to get up early to- morrow because of a double-header being listed with the “Yankees on this one-day stop. Only two single games will be played in Boston, the Nats traveling Friday to St. Louis, where they open their Western in- vasion on maturday. Jack Hayes’ homer in the fifth in- ning of yesterday’s second game was one of those “for the book.” It was a liner to center, but Centerfielder Harry Rice was looking for the Ball in the air, having lost it in the sun, even after it had passed him. Mean- while, Hayes was doing some fancy footwork on the sacks, with Myer and West ahead of him, to earn him- self a new winter overcoat. Roy Spencer, who has done some nifty pegging since Manager John- son has been using him more fre- quently behind the bat, helped Brax- ton out of a hole in the first inning of the opener when he tossed out Harry Rice at third on the front end of an attempted double theft, as Harry Heilmann swung at a third strike. In the next canto, the Nats came through with another two-ply swat with two Tigets on the sacks. This time the Cronin to Myer to Judge combination came to the rescue. The home team made two more double plays later in the game. KING’S PARK ENTRIES. (Associated Press.)

Henry, will you tell me ‘Why you are in London, and what Mr. Cornfort is doing in the Meantime, to say nothing of Miss Dane?’ The Bath chairman looked at him feproachfully. , +» “Mr. Cornfort its in bed,” he said fm @ hushed voice. “I fear he may ever use the Bath chair again.” “As bad as that, eh?” said Dick cheerfully. “Well, you can't live for- ever.” Henry was pained. “And Miss Dane?” Henry shook his head. “She is in town, sir, making in- Sree about something she lost in on. An inconsiderable trinket, bat very precious to her. Young reg their peculiar fancies, Mr. , and it is difficult to plumb the. minds of youth.” Diek was amused, a little irritated, too. He had a feeling that this man Was secretly laughing at him. —* who is looking after Mr. Cornfort?” he demanded. Henry's face fell. “Three trained nurses,” he said in @ hushed voice. Dick looked around at the arched @mtrance to Scotland Yard. “Is she in there?” “I believe so, sir.” “But that isn’t the place she would go to make inquiries about lost property. It is farther along.” He pointed. Henry followed the direction of his - ‘Qnger and seemed interested in the aig” ⸗ a Re ee * x —ã⸗ rooted building the gesture in- ted. ~- “Is that so, sir?” he asked inter- eatedly. “I'm afraid Miss Dane has only a rudimentary acquaintance wi police procedure. I have an Ves that her loss was of such im- ce that she was seeking an terview with the chief constable.” Dick gaped at him. “With the chief constable? Bourke?” Henry nodded ‘She is a peculiar young lady who invariably makes it her busi- hess to go to the fountainhead.” Dick examined the man carefully, Wut the blue eyes met his scrutiny With the least effort at evasion. . “You speak rather nicely for a Bath Mmairman,” said Dick. “Where were — you engaged in this pro- 7 9 « -Henry for a moment looked e¢m- and coughed behind his oved hand. Dick noticed that, as e raised his hand, his action was etif and that he winced. We won- @éered what had happened to his arm. “In my youth I was a professional Prizefighter,” he said, and Dick was Staggered “It is rather difficult to believe that a man of my meager Physique could have ever had any in such an arduous profes- .” said Henry, speaking with ‘the greatest precision, “and in order to down the shock I would ex- to you that I was also a teacher ‘mathematics at a very honorable “university.

He fell asleep in the thirteenth round and was never the same man afterward.” . Dick looked at the man suspicious- ly. Was his leg being coe by this mild dragger of Bath chairs? fore he could ask a question he saw Mary Dane come into view. She was walking quickly, but checked her pace at the sight of the detective. Henry regarded their meeting with great imperturbability. Dick had the sus- picion that he was mildly amused. “I suppose Henry's told you the news about Mr. Cornfort?” “Is he dead?” asked Dick brutaily, and she looked at him reproachfully. “How brutal you are! Of course he isn’t. The poor old man is in bed.” “And you've come up to Scotland Yard 2 to make an inquiry about a “Whatever Henry told you it was,” she interrupted calmly enough. “Please don’t cross-examine me cn the King’s highway! I think your Mr. Bourke is rather a darling.” “I will convey your views to him,” said Dick. She was looking at him thought- fully, biting that red nether lip of hers, and then: “Thank you, Henry, you needn't wait. Mr. Staines is taking me to tea at Sollinger’s. Let's walk through the park—I like. parks.” “So'I understand,” said Dick. He looked back over his shoulder. Henry was still standing where they left him, his contemplative eye on the river. “Where's his Bath chair?” he de- manded. “I should have thought that he would at least have brought that interesting mustard-colored vehicle to town-——-he looks almost naked without it! I should have loved to see you both being held up by a traffic cop!” “You're being rather unpleasant this afternoon,” she said. “I never use Bath chairs. I am taking you away from your work, which is selfish of me—but I’m not feeling a bit peni- tent.” “You are my work,” he said, “and my worry.” He did not provoke her to a reply. They crossed to Whitehall, into the Park gates, and their walk slowed toa saunter, which ls a pace appropriate to parks. “How is the ghost?” she asked as they lounged along the edge of the lake. “Not so well,” said Dick. “He has given up his Bath chair and has taken to bed.” “You mean Mr. Cornfort? How ab- surd you are!” “I meant the gun-laying ghost” “Did they nearly get you? dear, I was worried ill that nicht! hope you will never feel as I did. It was horrid!” “What made you think there was a spring gun in the house?” “Instinct,” she said, and he knew that she was speaking the truth. “I suppose when a woman feels—as I do towards a man, her intelligence is sharpened to a point where instinct gets a chance of Operating. I thought I would die as I sat by that telephone waiting to hear your voice. Dick, you're not taking any more chances?” “As a matter of fact, I am.” She stopped dead and looked at him, her lips parted, her eyes wide with fear. “What do you mean?” “Mr. Derrick is coming back to live here, and he has asked me to sleep on the premises.” She said nothing, sumed her walk. “When do you go in?” “Tomorrow, I think—Tommy hasn't said when he’s returning,” and then, as he remembered—"“he is probably in town.” She shook her head. “No. I told him I was coming back tonight.” “And aren’t you?” She hesitated. “Henry rather wanted to see a thea- ter, and I promised him he should.” And then she went off at a tangent “I like your Inspector Bourke—super- intendent, is he?—well, whatever he is! He's a nice fat darling of a man. He was very severe at first. but we became quite good friends.” “What did you see him about?” “IT lost a bangle,” she said. “Why do you make me lie? I'saw him about the bomb throwing. 1s a matter of fact, he wrote to me and asked me to come to see him. I suppose you know the municipality of Eastbourne has offered a reward of £200?” Continued Tomorrow.

College Park, Md., August 4—A meeting of all potatoe operators in Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina and South Carolina has been arranged by A. E. Merker, secretary of the interstate early potato committee to discuss plans for handling next year’s potato crop from these States. The meeting will be held at the Naval Y. M. C. A. in Norfolk, Va., next Friday. Those composing the Mary- land representatives of the inter- state committee are: Dr. T. B. Sy- mons, director, and Dr. F. B. Bom- berger, assistant director, extension, University of Maryland, College Park; W. H. Holloway, Newark, and W. C. Cullen, Pocomoke. The committee intends to consider the seed situation for the 1930 crop at the meeting, as it exists in the four States, and it will endeavor to show the dealers why it would be best to purchase only sufficient seed to cover about 75 per cent of their needs, on 1929’s purchase basis. Such subjects as “The 1930 Early Potato Stabilization,” “The Seed Potato Situation,” and “Financing the 1930 Early Potato Crop” will be brought up for discussion at that time and any others which may seem of im- portance or interest to the members of the committee or the attending operators. The interstate early potato com- mittee was organized in 1928 for the purpose of stabliizing the potato acreage and more intelligently and systematically deposing of the an- nual potato crop of the four south- eastern States named.

OPENS ON SEPTEMBER 2 Special to The Washington Post. Culpeper, Va. Aug. 4.—Arrange- ments are virtually completed for the ninth annual Cupeper and Ad- joining Counties Fair, to be held here September 2, 3 and 4. Al- though it is held in Culpep& this is “The Fair” for the adjoining coun- ties of Madison and Rappahannock, both of these counties being repre- sented on the board of directors and providing many exhibitors. A wide range of classes, with lib- eral prizes for winners, offers open- ings for everyone to enter something whether it be calves and cakes, or pickles and babies. In addition to the usual county fair events, there is to be a horse shoe itching tournament and a hog-calling contest, with cash prizes offered in both. In the latter event many factors are to be consideerd by the judges. Volume will count heavily as the caller’s voice must carry to the hogs feeding far away, and then a good strong call serves to notify the neighbors that the hog raiser is at home on the job.. Variety must be considered, for the hogs soon would tire of hearing the same old call day after day. Then, too, there must be sufficient originality for the porker to recognize his master’s voice, and sufficient charm to draw him from a shady spot to the caller. J. C. Eller, county agent, will have charge of a special department for boys’ and girls’ agricultural clubs. has organized 4-H Clubs throughout the county and it is expected his department will have a large number of entries, especially in the dairy breeds. departmental heads are: Agriculture, Mrs. Elisabeth Finks; horticulture, Mre.

Sabin to act on the National Advisory Council of the Women’s Organiza- tion for National Prohibition Re- form, according to an exchange of correspondence made public yester- day. “I know the women throughout the country are more anxious to re- form the bootleggers’ victims than they are for prohibition reform, and the Only women opposed to national prohibition are women who have some pecuniary motives,” said Mrs. Nicholson in her reply. She added, “May I ask, why you, as a national Republican commit- teewoman, supported a ‘dry’ Presi- dent last fall if you entertained the same views then that you do at present? Who is back of your move- ment and who is financing same, and why? I know there are not j}enough women throughout the Na- | tion who want booze returned that they are willing to finance so huge an undedtaking.” ‘Walking Wonder of Page County Succumbs at 89 Luray, Va., Aug. 4-—Fifteen years ago Jesse Shuff, then living in Ohio, declared that he wanted to “come back to Virginia to die within sight of boyhood scenes.” Yesterday he was buried in Powells Fort, 8 miles west of Luray.

They returned to the High Street Church for preaching service at 11 o'clock. The University Baptist Church was erected by the congregation of the High Street Church, in cooperation with the Baptist Board of Missions and Education of the State of Vir- ginia The building is one of the most imposing in the city. It faces the spa- cious park containing the monument to Lewis and Clark, donated to the City of Charlottesville by Paul Good- loe McIntire. While the first preaching service is scheduled to be held in the new edi- fice today week, the formal dedica- tion of the building will be delayed until early fall soon after the open- ing of the next session of the Uni- versity of Virginia. An interesting program for the dedicatory exercises is being arranged. These will extend over one week, during which addresses will be delivered by leading members of the denomination in the South. Primary Contest Stirs Petersburg Whether Mapp or Pollard Will Carry Town Is the Question of Hour. Special to The Washington Post: Petersburg, Va., Aug. 4—Tuesday next will witness the most interest- ing election that has been held in this city for many years and the larg- est vote in the history of Petersburg will be polled. Such is the interest in the political contest that little else has been talked of for the last month or more on the streets and other pub- lic places. The question now is: Will Mapp or Pollard carry Petersburg? The supporters of each apparently are confident their favorite candidate will be the winner. Circulation in Petersburg of dummy ballots, purporting to show the proper method of marking the ticket in the Democratic primary Tuesday, has brought from the electoral board of Petersburg a statement that it is un- lawful to circulate such dummy bal- lots and that mo one can lawfully aid another person in marking a ballot. The contest for city treasurer which office is now filled by J. J. Nelms, and that of clerk of the courts, filled by Robert G. Bass, is one of the hottest political contests ever known here. Nelms is opposed by I. Val Par- ham, a member of the city council, and Bass by Ernest N. Townes, a young lawyer. Veteran of World War Is Buried at Lynchburg Special to The Washington Post.

PALACE — | “THE hada ag OF WOMEN.” Me wyn-Ma sound are, with a sequences, E from —S — * pw bn) Wife o ood and Le 8s Directea wae Brown. Rev By NELSON B. BELL. Genius, no doubt, must have its eccentricity, but-I am not sure that it needs to be always so bitter as that which tinctures the life of Stephan Tromholt in this drab tale of Buderman’s. It seemed’ his per- verse fate to cause most acute an- guish to those he loved best and it was not until too late that he learned that this was so. Thus the futil- ity of a thwarted love is added a vein pathos that does not to number cheerfulness among the major virtues of this splendidly executed picture. It is, nevertheless, a subject that will linger in memory after many of its contemporaries have been forgotten. “The Wonder of Women,” a tawdry title for so forceful a drama, is the type of play that Leo Ditrichstein was accustomed to bring to the so- called legitimate stage. Its central r who marries & a moment of in- figure ts a com middle-class wife in fatuation, while in Berlin there await him the adulation and the glamor that surround the unfettered and unconventional life of the triumphant creative artist. Irritated by the monotonous routine and rigid restrictions of the household presided over by his widow-bride, with three small children, he attempts to return to the glorious diva who has been his inamorata in the capital. The tragic death of his small stepson balks this plan. Ashamed of the tunes he grinds out to pay the family bills, he assumes the name of Franz Gehring. Once more he seeks to break away from the smothering re- sponsibilities that are suffocating his talent, but now it is his wife, Bri- gitte, who dies. Not. until he is a4 proken old mah doés he come t6 know that the simple melodies she had loved were the true flowering of his genius and that Gehring always was greater than Tromholt. Notwithstanding that the motiva- tion of the whirlwind courtship pur- sued during a short trip in a com- partment of a railway train is flag- rantly inadequate, and that no at- tempt is made ever to justify the sudden and inexplicable revulsions of feeling to which Tromholt is sub- ject, there is a grip and a tug at the heart strings in. the narrative. that can not be gainsaid. Lewis Stone, impeccably tailored and groomed, offers a portrayal of Tromholt-Gehring that is no less than masterful, despite the many un- sympathetic qualities of the role. Audibility is all in his favor, excel- lent as he has always been in panto- mime. Peggy Wood, as Brigitte, the wife, plays with a comprehensive in- telligence to be e ted from one who has achieved distinction in operetta, drama and literature. Her fine soprano is revealed in one short song. Leila Hyams, as the star of opera, lends further strength to the belief that she is a young actress of extraordinary promise. Numerous names of note are in- cluded in the supporting cast, among them George Fawcett, Mack Swain, William Orlamond, Harry Myers and Sarah Padden. On the sta7*, Herbert Rawlinson introduces a corps of principals and an ensemble that manage to make “Radio Romance” one of Jack Part- ington’s most engaging productions in spite of the fact that it gets off to a slow start. Kimself singing & chorus of “I'll Always Be fn Love With You,” with the Syncopators, Mr. Rawlinson introduces Laura Lane, a singing danseuse; Ross and Edwards, singing comedians of the first water; Paul and Ferral, lightning tap danc- ers; Larry Adler and his harmonica and the Dave Gould girls in varied routines and setting-up exercises. The M-G-M and Fox Movietone newsreels, orchéstra and organ com- plete an entertainment of substan- ‘tial merit. Four Are Injured In Auto Collision Vehicle Driven by Woman and Theater Man’s Car Crash in Virginia. Special to The Washington Post. Betterton, Md., Aug. 4.—Littleton Moore, manager of the Mastbaum Theater, Philadelphia, figured in an automobile accident last night while motoring to spend the week-end with, his family at this Chesapeake Bayside. resort. His car collided with one driven by Mrs. Roland Crew, who was motoring to Middletown, Del., to meet her husband, who is a Pennsylvania Railroad civil engineer in Pittsburgh. The new car she was driving met Moore’s machine head-on. Mrs. Sam- uel G. Roseberry, her eister-in-law, a passenger in the car, suffered a broken leg, cuts on the eyes and severe lacer- ations on the body. Her 75-year-old mother, Mrs. H. L. Crew, had a broken wrist and possible internal injuries. The driver escaped with a badly cut lip. Moore was unhurt. The accident occurred near the town of Stillpond, and the injured were treated by Dr. Lewis P. Attwell, of that town. Both cars were badly damaged. A 4-year-old daughter of Mrs. Roland Crew had painful face injuries. Heavy Lynchburg Vote Is Predicted Race for Prosecutor Seen as Exceeding Governor’s in Interest. Special to The Washington Post. Lynchburg, Va., Aug. 4.—Interest in the three-cornered fight for nomina- tion for Commonwealth’s attorney among R. D. Yancy, incumbent for 30 years; W. T. Spencer, jr., and E. Thurman Boyd, will it is predicted, cause a much larger vote at Tuesday's primary in Lynchburg than would have been attracted to the polis by the gubernatorial fight. For this rea- son it is expected that the vote will be much larger than was looked for a week ago. Boyd and Spencer have been very active in their personal work and during the past few days have been able to interest many of their friends to go to work in their behalf. - Although Mapp carried Lynchburg four years ago, supporters of Pollard now are predicting that Pollard will carry the city by votes, at least.

The old story of the tricky investment broker and the young football star with an overplusage of S. A—meaning sex appeal and not South America—is told in the ultra- modern, high-voltage wise-crackery of the present sophisticated era and, being particularly well dressed, ap- peals no less to the eye than to the ear. Grant Withers, in the role of the gridiron star, who turns out to be not such a dub in the bond-selling racket after all, becomes important for the first time, ever to the best of my- Knowledge. His performance is breezy, amusing and authoritative. It is not possible to admire all of the egotism that has been written in- to the role, but it is impossible not to applaud Mr. Withers’ skill in as- suming it. Gertrude Olmstead, in the opposite but less conspicuous part of the stenographer who saves |the day for her hero, is wholly ade- quate to the comparatively small de- mands mgde upon her, but Betty Compson, it seemed to me, was thor- oughly artificial and unconvincing in most of what she essayed as the wife of the stock broker, whose crafty schemes she inadvertently aided ‘n knocking into a cocked hat. After hg splendid work in “On With the Show,” her present portrayal comes as a distinct disappointment. John Davidson does reasonably well in the stiff-neckeq character of Peter Ward, the broker who gives every one he meets a job in his office under the mellowing influence of what he has in the flask at the year’s biggest foot- ball game, and Roach is an agree- able foil as his star salesman. James Kirkwood, returning to the screen one brief introductory sequence. The other prominent feminine members of the cast include Vivian Oakland, Gret- chen Hartmann and Irene Haisman. The football crowd is much better pictured than the game itself, but the voice recording throughout is ex- cellent and the dramatic movements of the action well directed. Perhaps most notable among the supplementary attractions is the first release of the Paramount Sound News. No less a personage than Presi- dent Hoover introduces this new me- dium of the articulate news event to the public in a brief colloquy with Adolph Zukor, president of Para- mount, recorded in the White House grounds. The landing of the Army blimp TC-6 at the door of the Capitol to deliver Senator Bingham from Langley Field is another exclusive local shot of unique interest. There is still, however, something left to be hoped for in the matter of sound recording. ; Two Vitaphone subjects are pre- sented—the better of the two, the Norman Thomas Quintet in “Harlem- Mania,” an interval of syncopated song, dance and instrumentalism, fea- turing a ne plus ultra trap drummer; the other, a:domestic skit, “The Out- law-in-law.” The bill is completed by one of those absusily ridiculous ‘‘Mickey Mouse” sound cartoons, this time called “The ——— i METROPOLITAN tt Miller. Dire Reviewed Sunday Porter Russell. This is not the first time “The Hottentot” has been played on the screen, but the present all-talking version of William Collier’s and Vic- tor Mapes’ stage success has many advantages over the somewhat an- cient silent one. An outright and combustible farce has less to lose and more to gain from audibility than perhaps any other type of film. There are no scenes of delicacy, pa- thos or impassioned love to be ren- dered impotent by possible mechani- cal defects, but there are situations galore of absurd and high-powered comedy- which can reach the height of their hilarity only through use of ,the spoken word. The adapters have seemingly util- ized here frequent stretches of dia- logue from the original work, and in addition to this: there are com- pletely devastating views of the steeplechase race and of the Hot- tentot in action that the stage could bring to its audience only through the comparatively tame method of description. The Hottentot, for the benefit of those whose educations have been neglected, is a hores like which there has never been another. He is a horse that would delight in kicking old ladies and babies and stamping cripples to the ground. As for a timorous individual who would try to ride him to prove to his girl that he is as good a horseman as he is, in fact, a bad one—well, it’s rather tough’ on the poor wretch. That's what Sam Harrington is. How could h know when he came down to Vir- ginia to woo Peggy Fairfax that she and her air-minded as ates would mistake him for H. Harrington, the famous horseman% He goes through with it, brave and cowardly deceiver that he is, steeplechase and all, and the sight of his agony is a joy. The settings for all this are pic- turesque and in keeping, and Edward has never ‘horsed,” contributes a de- lightfully nervous and tortured per- formance, including acrobatic meneu- vers on, Off and above the Hotten- tot’s broad back. The steeplechase itself is magnificently done. Patsy Ruth Miller appears engag- ingly as Peggy. The late Brockwell, Edward Earle, Stanley Tay- lor, Otto Hoffman and Douglas Ger- rard compose the supporting cast. a two-reel Vitaphone offering, “My People,” featuring Eugene and Willie Howard, which has its start in a dra- matic and ominous Russian setting and finishes up disconcertingly in a New York night club. Several of the songs would be worth hearing, were it mot for the transpirings in be- tween. The newsreel and trailer announce- ment of Sophie Tucker in “Honky Tonk” are the only other auxiliaries.
