COF YRIGHT. 1929, BY THE WASHINGTON POST CO. — Ras on * THREE CEN — OAD WEATHER DRIES ZtP TO OHUN MOSCOW} Soviet Officials Authorize Change in Itinerary With Regret. CAPITAL HAD HOPED FOR SIGHT OF CRAFT Ural Mountains and Wild Lake Regions Lie in Path to Tokyo. GOOD SPEED MARKS FIRST 800 MILES Japanese Make Exhaustive Plans to Welcome Giant Air Liner. Moscow, U. 8. 8. R., Aug. 16 (Pri- day) (A. P.).—A radio message from the Graf Zeppelin received at 3 a. m. (8 p. m, Eastern standard time), said that it. was compelled to proceed north, avoiding Moscow, because of unfavorable weather. Dr. Hugo Eckener had radioed a re- quest to the Efviet authorities for permission to change the agreed upon itinerary because of unfavorable weather conditions. The authorities replied that a flight by the airship over this capital was urgently desirable but they left to its commander the final decision, de- pending upon the meterological con- ditions which he faced. The Graf Zeppelin was first sighted from Russian soil at 9:30 p. m., East- ern European time (2:30 p. m., East- ern standard time) from the frontier post of Bigosovo on the Latvian bor- der. (Associated Press.) The dirigible Graf Zeppelin, under way on the gréatest flight of its career, Thursday night was over ter- ritory of the Soviet: Union en route * to Tokyo on the second stage of its * ~ world-girdling tour. For about four days the giant air- ship will be above Soviet soil as it files eastward across the plains of ' Europe. and Asia, the Ural Mountains and wild lake regions on its way to the Land of the Rising Sun. . The Zeppelin crossed the Russian frontier at°2:30 p. m., Bastern stand- -ard time, yesterday near Dwinsk | (Daugavpils), Latvia. It had left Ger- man soil behind at 11:05 a. m., East- ern standard. time, when it was sighted over Tilsit, East Prussia, on the Lithuanian border. Flying Speed Reduced. From Tilsit to Dwinsk ts-.a dis- tance of about 190 miles and the time of nearly four hours and a half indicated a flying speed of about 58 miles an hour. Aa she left German soil behind her at 5:05 p. m. Thursday (11:05 a. m., Eastern standard time), the Graf had logged to her credit roughly 800 miles of her 7,000-mile flight from Fried- richshafen to Tokyo in twelve and one half hours of flying time, in- cluding a detour over Berlin. This distance was covered at a speed ‘of; 64 Milles an hour, a shade over what Dr. Hugo Eckener..hoped to average on the second ‘leg of the epoch-making flight around the world. | Berlin Halls Zeppelin. The only large town on the way after leaving Tilsit is Duenaburg, in Latvia, an important air port on the regular air lines to Moscow from west- ern Europe. Berlin gave her a great demonstra- tion as she roared with the full blast of her motors down the famous Unter Den Linden. Work stopped in shops and factories and people crowded into the streets to watch the pride of German aviation go by on her most perilous flight. Leipsic, Nuremburg and Stettin all had a view of ‘the silver queen of the skies. At Stettin she crossed the Polish corridor, the only Polish ter- ritory Dr. Eckener flew over at all. Over the free city of Danzig, for- merly a German city, he dropped a German flag. Koenigsberg, in East Prussia, sighted the Graf next and less than an hour later the dirigible had left behind the Patherland and was cruising’ into Lithuania. Dr. Eckener hoped, with favorable weather conditions, to make the 7,000 miles from Friedrichshafen to Tokyo in 120 hours, ‘all told. He must main- tain a speed of 60 miles an hour to do so, This would bring the Graf to Tokyo late on Monday, Tokyo time. Danger of Forced Landing. burg Marine Weather Bu- arpa: Sst tap, ete 2 SOA.

FAIR RETURN DISCUSSED The Public Utilities Commission is obliged to consider and protect the interests of the public as well as the interests of the utilities corporations, John H. Hanna, president of the Capi- tal Traction Co., agreed yesterday in the course of cross-examination by People’s Counsel Ralph B. Fleharty at the car fare hearing. Fleharty’s- cross-examination was brief and did little more than indi- cate the line of argument and future motions he plans to make later in the case. He questioned the valua- tion of the Capital Traction Co., touched on the “going value” of the company allowed for in the valuation, and got Hanna to admit that if the company could not earn a “fair re- turn” by means of higher fares, a change in the conditions under which the company operates would be neces- sary. : But Hanna refused to answer a simple yes to that question and shied CONTINUED ON PAGE 2, COLUMN 6.

NANKING STANDS FIRM Shanghai, Aug.. 15 (A.P.).—Further reports of severe fighting with Soviet troops on Chinese soil came tonight from Nanking. It was stated that the government was informed from Har- bin that Soviet troops at Linkiangh- sein, Siberia, at the confluience of the Amur and Suncgri Rivers last’ Tues- day, attacked Chaohsinhsien on the south and Chinese bank of the Amur. The dispatch said, “After several hours of severe fighting the Soviets withdrew on board a transport,” the government was also informiéd that Russia was moving troops along the Amur toward the Sungari and that Soviet gunboats had appeared on the latter river. which runs entirely through Manchurian territcry. The agency had no confirmation, however, of fighting reported in prog- ress in the vicinity of Manchull, near the western border of the province.

During the six months she has been an inmate of the District’s poorhouse at Blue Plains, vandals have ran- sacked and robbed the home of Miss Emily Magruder, 90 years old, of 1304 Thirty-fifth street northwest, of ap- proximately $1,000 of the $40,000 she is reputed to have secreted in various Parts of the house, police of the Seventh Precinct disclosed last aye with the arrest of eleven persons, all While investigating the robberies peper currency and more than $100 in ol dsilver coins hid- den behind pictures, under papers and stuffed in cracks in the walls of the delapidated frame building which has been condemned by the District gov- : ernment. This money was taken to the station house for safe keeping. A small fortune, police were told, lies buried in a strong box at the bottom of a well te the rear yard. Police expect to make a further search of the house after communicating with Miss Magruder today. First intimation of the robberies came from neighbors of Miss Ma- gruder, who informed police of peri- odic visits made to the dwelling by Negroes. The arrests followed. Police said they were astounded by the sights they saw after entering the house. From the outside, the dwelling, part of which is roofless and badly in need of painting, has the appearance of being ready to fall apart. Inside, however, the rooms were found to be furnished with Many queer articles and antiques. CONTINUED TO PAGE 3, COLUMN 5. Four Sought as Eight Are Held In —— Gigantic Rum Plot “Glassman’s Rent-a-Car Head Surrenders As Hunt Starts. Authorities Charge Men Transported and Sold Vast Quantities. With eight men already accounted for, all United States marshals of the District. of Columbia, prohibition agents and members of two police vice 4 sqlitds Were combing Washington last night in efforts to apprehend the other four members of what Govern- ment officials describe as the biggest liquor ring that ever operated in the Nation's Capital. The eight men accounted for and the four who are being sought are charged in a warrant with conspiracy to violate the national prohibition act. Six of the men surrendered volun- tarily yesterday morning to United States Marshal Edgar C. Snyder, while the others were apprehended later. They are: Herbert Glassman, propri- etor of a frent-a-car service and garages at 2101 Fourteenth street northwest and 1319 L street north- west; David Glassman, Samuel] Gold- stein, Harry Behrle, Irving Rosenberg, Antonio D’Ambrosio, Harvey O’ Con- nor, and Alton Cissel. The latter two, who did not surrender, were ap- prehended by Deputy United States Marshal John J. Clarkson and Sergt. George M. Little, leader of one of the police vice squads. The others for whom search was be- ing made last night are: Julius San- ders, Robert C. Jones, Francis Joseph Paxton, and Jacob Miller. Out on Bond, The two Glassmans, Goldstein and Behrie were liberated by United States Commissioner Needham C. Turnage for appearance at a preliminary hear- ing next Thursday under bonds of $5,000 each. Rosenberg, D’Ambrosio and Cissel were freed on $2,500 bonds. All the bonds were signed by Milton 6. Kronheim. O’Connor was held at Sixth Precinct last night for U. 5. marshals. The warrants, which were sworn to by Frank C. Hellen, of the United States Attorney's office, allege that Herbert Glassman and the others cor- spired between April 1, 1928, and August 14, 1929 to violate the pro- visions of the Volstead act by bring- ing whisky and other intoxicants de- signed for beverage purposes into the District of Columbia in trucks and automobiles which were received at one or both of Glassman’s garages The watrants assert that the garages were used as depots for the distribu- tion of the alleged intoxicants to va- rious sections of Washiugton and the District. Claim is made by the Government that the alleged conspiracy covered possession, sale and transportation of liquor, and nine overt acts are cited in the affidavit which accompanied the application for the warrants. These alleged acts date back to April 10, 1928, when it is charged that Herbert Glassman and Sanders had possession of 752 quarts of alleged liquor. On May 21, the affidavit charges, the same two possessed 45 gallon cans filled with whisky. Transportation Alleged. Goldstein and Cissel are alleged to have transported large quantities of liquors from Baltimore, and the affi- davit specifies that the goods so trans- were stored and with ha that were and automobiles containing intoxti- cants.

U.S. MUST ENLARGE SEA FORCE, IS BELIEF England Blocked In Move for Parity Also by Japan, It Is Argued. GRAVE SNAG ARISES JN CRUISER PARLEYS London Admiralty Contends Fleet Strength Now Is at Migimum. London, Aug. 15 (N.Y.W.N5S.)— President Hoover’s naval conference in Washington following the latest Dawes-MacDonald talks, seems to have advanced negotiations to & point where the United States awaits a statement from Great Britain as to the minimum cruiser strength which this country requires. After these requirements are made known it is intended to invoke yard- stick computations to decide how many American cruisers ‘will have to be built to arrive at parity. It is theréfore probable that real difficulties in the reduction of armi- ments campaign will shortly con- front the statesmen. As seen here, the most important of these will not be Premier MacDonald's enforced and unwilling statement that British cruiser strength can not be greatly reduced beyond cuts already made so that American building up to secure parity with Great Britain will be necessary under the declared American policy. Biggest Shag of All. . The biggest snag of.all in these preliminary Anglo-American discus- sions in all probability will be found to be Gréat Britains’ inability to name any cruiser minimum which will meet her needs except under the assumption that France ancl Italy will reduce their own building pro- What is puzzling the British ex- perts most of all at present is how to fit in any yardstick agreement with the United States with the Brit- ish policy of sea supremacy in Eu- ropean waters. One result of these negotiations, though it will not come untli a gen- eral naval conference is noted, will probably be a pronouncement that Great Britain, while adhering to the 5—5—3 ratio with America and Japan, will not permit herself to be- come inferior to any possible European combination. What that implies, and what MacDonald is up against is trying to deal with the American desire for cruiser reduc- tion, is best indicated by the follow- ing facts which imply factors of vast moment: Home Fieet to Be Enlarged. The British navy, excluding de- stroyers and submarines, is at pres- ent dispersed throughout the world. based upon eight naval stations as follows: In home waters are four battleships and five cruisers with three battleships and four cruisers in reserve. To this home fleet will be added in October four battleships from the Mediterrane&n. In the Mediterranean, based on Malta, are nine battleships of whicn four, as stated, are being transferred to home station, nine cruisers and four sloops. Two cruisers and four sloops are based on Cape Town, African station; the East Indian squadron is com- posed of three cruisers and four sloops. On China-station are six cruisers, four sloops and fourteen river boats. The Australian navy has four cruis- ers under Australian control, forti- fied by three cruisers and two sloops of the British navy of New Zealand station. American and West Indies Station. Pive cruisers and two sloops con- stitute the force on the American and West Indies station. These forces, thus distributed over trade routes throughout the world, according to the admiralty, are at present insufficient to guard imperial interests. Apart from policing work, which compels dispersion of smaller cruis- ers, the strategic position in the Mediterranean is highly relative to teduction plans. Five battleships, nine cruisers and four sloops based On Malta after October have to be considered in connection with French and Italian fleets and programs as follows: Prance, since 1920, has laid down or has authorized six 10,000-ton cruis- charged | ers, three 7,800-ton cruisers, two air- craft carriers, 20 flotilla leaders, 26 destroyers, 91 submarines and 12 sloope—a total of 164 ships.

Federal agents and . investigators, he said, last year made 67,200 arrests, seized 7,367 automobiles and trucks and recommended prosecution of 65,- 867 persons in Federal courts. “While this is @ very substantial accomplishment,” he declared, “it still remains obvious that there must be a large supplementary police activity and a full functioning of State courts to bring about that degree of criminal enforcement that we all desire.” He held that it was unfortunate that unsatisfactory conditions arising from violations of the prohibition law “are almost invariably made the CONTINUED ON PAGE 2.

State Superintendent of Banks Joseph A. Broderick, District Attorney Dodd and President Maurice T. Lewls, of the bank, meantime began a de- termined effort to run down the source of the false rumor of Lewis’ death that precipitated the run. Mothers, some carrying Dabies. light-haired buxom women of Nordie extraction, besieged the bank all day. At 3 p. m. Presi- dent Lewis ordered the doors closed till 9 a. m. tomorrow in order to save the energy of seventeen tellers who had worked from 7:30 a. m. paying everyone who asked for cash. Depositors Are Reassured, Several hundred depositors were still lined up at paying teller’s win- dows. An oficer of the bank told them they could all get their money. “We are shutting the doors now, it being our usual closing hour,” he said. “When you get to the street and find your friends not being ad- mitted, don’t tell them the bank is closed. We will open at 9 tomorrow and all will be paid.” In addition to the false story of Lewis's death, several other factors contributed to the run. Reports of closing of three banks in Norway were published in Norwegian papers in Brooklyn. Non-English speaking depositors read them, and with the long stories of the failures of the City Trust Oo. and .Clarke Bros. and of United States Attorney Tuttle’s prosecution of investment tipsters fresh in their minds, were in the right mood for Before Snowden’s announcement to- | any sort of unfounded rumor.

He said the man was on the Bt. Elizabeths list, but for some unknown reason, or lack of reason, he had not been sent there. The old man could hardly keep his equilibrium, and often fell. He had a badly blackened and bruised eye which the orderly said he suffered in falling agaimst a door. There were two insane men strapped in bed in adjoining rooms, the doors to which usuélly were wide open. One of them was hopelessiy and helplessly insane, while the other usually was quite normal, but often became dangerous. The hopelessly insane man was @émaciated and covered with bed sores; he was a sad sight to behold. All he could do was struggle at his bonds and cry, wail and screech for help. His cries were terrifying and nérve-wracking to All, but especially so to the other insane man. The latter seémed all right at times. I fed him once and he talked with me in a rational manner. He told me he was just exceedingly nervous and often lost control of himself éntirely. “If I was free now,” he said, “I might lose contro] of myself and kill you, although I like you very much.” “You know,” he continued, “that is hot right. I want to be cured of that.” Of the patients in this depart- ment while I was there, a former s0ldier probably was the most dan- gerous, certainly the most mentally incompetent. Veteran Has Mania for Work, He had a mania for work; as a consequence, he was allowed to do everything and order other tients around. He worked just as hard as he could all day long, always going in a trot. He ecrubbed the dining room, bathroom, kitchen and latrine a dozen times a day. He also set the table and washed the dishes. While working he would shout at other patients, ordering them to stay out of hia way. “Ain’t you got no sense? Can’t you mind your own. business?” he would shout. “Keep out of my way. I got work to do.” He often chased other patients out of the kitchen when they had been told to help wash the dishes. As a regult, several of the very nervous patients often became so enraged at him that they swore they would smash his face. This former soidier usually fed the hopelessly ingane, bed-strapped man. Once he asked me to help him minister to the insane man, and I went with him. When we got into the room, he ordered me out, telling me to mind my own business. One day he was scrubbing the latrine when a dope patient was sitting on the floor in there. He ordered the patient to get out of his way, and when the latter failed to comply with hig order, he proceeded to throw him out of the way. The dope patient became enraged, but he only swore, as he was not physically able to fight. After being chased out of the kitchen, one nervous patient swore he would kill the former soldier if it. was the last thing he ever did, but another patient and I finally dis- suaded him. Has No Shoes, Despite Cold. One old man who was only slightly nervous, had a severe cold when ad- mitted, yet he was forced to around in his sock-feet. He nearly frome and had to huddle in the latrine to keep from having an ague. When taken to the hydropathy with other patients, he was given ‘the same treatment, and was thoroughly douched with cold water, despite his request to the contrary. Fach morning the night arrivals offered a rafe but pitiable sight. Most of them were alcoholic and dope addicts, and they were bedded on the floor anywhere. One morning there was an ald man, an inmate of Soldiers’ Home, lying on a filthy mattress with * 4 rubber sheet under his head. ad drunk, he was a revolting sight, even to the nurse. An insanely drunk man who had suffered a broken leg two days pre- vious, was brought in oné night. He was strapped in bed, but he struggled and yelled in a terrified manner, yet no effort was made to quiet him. A well dressed man was asleep with his clothes on in the sun- parlor one morning. When the nurse arrived she asked the orderly who the man was. “ft don't know,” the orderly sald. “The doctor told me to put him to bed in here and release him when e awakened.” “Gosh,” the nurse said, “he must be a privileged character around here.” The man apparentiy was only drunk, so when he awoke he was re- leased. Thé doctors threaten to send * tients to St» Elizabeths on the aught · est. provocation. While examining a petient who had attempted suicide the doctor was in- terrogating him concerning. the mo- tive. The patient was obdurate. “T'll send you to St. Elizabeths for the rest of your life if you don’t tell me.” the doctor declared. The patient was aware of the old threat apparently, for he only replied, “lI don’t give a d—— what you do with me.” Most of the alcoholic and dope tients had police charges pen against them, but all declared they had much rather be in jail than in that hospital. (Tomorrow Mr. Priee will tell of treatment received at Gallinger in a specific case.) BOARD TO OUTLINE GALLINGER INQUIRY CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. vestigation is a matter which the Board of Public Welfare has not de- cided, although it is expected that a decision on the subject will be made at the coming meeting. It Is pointed out that a committee of recognized hospital authorities mak- ing a personal investigation probably would be better qualified to discover any defects than the most. careful layman. In line with the assignment given him on Wednesday by the Board of Public Welfare, George 8. Wilson, di- rector of the board, spent all day yesterday at the hospital in a quasi- secret investigation in search of facts to be laid before the board at its forthcoming session. Upon Wilson was placed the task of rounding up and tabulating all available facts and charges so that when it meets again the board may have as much information as possible in such Shapé as tO be most readily service- able in furthering the probe. In behalf of the student nurses of Gallinger, one of their number, Miss H. Howard, yesterday tendered to Dr. Bocock an expression of their sympathy for the “attacks” upon the management and pledged their loyalty to the hospital and offered their cooperation “in any manner you may see fit to call on us.” DORAN URGES STATE AID ON PROHIBITION CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. basis of complaint of nonaction by the Federal Government.” “In much of the public discussion,” he added, “it seems to be assumed as & premise that the enforcement of liquor laws is a problem solely up to the Federal Government. “We must either bend our efforts to the clarification of the State and Federal function as it relates to po- lice activities necéssarily arising in connection with enforcement of liquor laws, and bring about a clearer conception of these two functions in the public mind, with a necessary corollary of developing more fully the State police powers and bringing about a discharge of the constitu- tional obligations of those States not now adequatély discharging them, or elee embark on a fixed program of ex- panding the facilities of the Federal Government, executive and judicial, to the point where they will com- pletely discharge every enforcement function, great and small, as it re- lates to laws arising from the eight- eenth amendment.” Enforcement Hit. Arthur V. Lashly, St. Louis attorney, told the institute that since prohib:- tion there has been released upon the country a vast horde of dangerous criminals who are bettér paid than criminals have ever been before and who have little or no fear that pun- ishment for their crimes will ever Overtake them. “Prohibition is not being enforced,” he contended. “In many parts of the country, our surveys definitely esteb- lished that nonenforcement in such places is due to official laxity, sup- ported by local sentiment. The claim that prohibition can not be enforced is not proven by the fact that it is not being enforced in such com- munities.” Ernest Gruening, editor of the Port- land (Me.) Evening News, told the institute today that Washington cor- respondents of news services merely scratch the surface of Washington news and do not dig to the bottom for the real news in which the public is interested for fear of being “balled out” by Government departments. Washington dispatches, he said, were wsually little more than hand- outs. Veteran’s Slayer Is Sent to Asylum Robert L. McDonald Held by Alienists to Be Feeble-Minded. Special to The Washington Post. Gordonsville, Va., Aug. 15—Robert Linden McDonald, 23, Loulsa County resident, confessed slayer of John Ross Marshall, World Wer veteran, at hie home near Louisa on the night of July 25, has been committed to the criminal asylum of Marion, Va, and his trial indefinitely postponed following testimony of Dr. J. 5.

Police said the underwea was damp, as though it had bee washed recently. The shoe shop is only a short dis- ce from the Aune home from whieh the little girl disappeared last Tuesday after starting on an errand to @ nearby grocery store. Tire’s Tread Believed Clew.

An analysis of both underwear and gunny sacks will be made. When Dorothy’s body was found it was wrapped in two such sacks. The suspect was taken into custody after neighbors had told police the girl had visited his shop several times before last Tuesday, the day she dis- appeared. They told of experi- ences of other young girls at the place. When the man was firet ques- tioned, police said, he told a plausible story and they hesitated to arrest him. After he was taken into cus- tody, however, a search ef the shop and home brought the various articles to light and he was taken to the police station for further ques- tioning. His Brothers Questioned. Two brothers of Mollenhauer also wére brought to headquarters for questioning as to his activities. Meanwhile three other men, one a former inmaté of an insane asylum, were still held and police continued their investigation of a story told by a man and a woman who bélieved they saw Dorothy Aune in an ayto- mobile only a few hours befote she was found dead. This couple said they saw an autor mobile Tuesday night near the spot where the body was found early yes- terday and that a littlé girl, ap- parently terrified, was huddled in the back seat. Although they obtained only 4 glimpse of the girl, they said, as their headlights were focused mo- mentarily on the other machine, they declared she clogely resembléd pic- tures of the slain child. Both said a large red-haired and red-bearded man was in the driver’s séat, while the woman thought she saw another man crouched in the rear with the child.

DEALS PUT AT $3,000,000 Milwaukee; Wis,, Aug. 15 (A-P.)— Confident that Elmer 8S. Huckins, head of a mysterious business cn- terprise which is reputed to pay in- vestors an afinual interest rate of 26 per cent, would not long evade them, Federa] authorities tonight ex- pected momentarily to arrest him on a charge of using the mails to de- fraud. Huckins, 60 years old, former small town grocer, whose sudden rise from small means to the status of & wealthy business man, prompted in- vestigation, is specifically charged with having malled 4 letter to & Milwaukee investor who had stopped . oot bese on a $10,000 check given to uckins. The letter was mailed at Hancock, Wis., where Huckins main- an elaborate summer home. and addressed to the man in Mil- waukee. ; The warrant was issued at a 6e- cret conference Saturday, but Fed- eral operatives, for reasons they re- fuse to divulge, waited until yester- day to serve it. Huckins had left the city, however, and was last seen leaving Hancock in an automobile. His attorney, Walter J. Barngrover, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, today told Fed- eral authorities his client would sur- render, but he failed to amplfiy his statement. Federal and State tax inquisitors also are investigating the activities of Huckins and his gon and 46s50- clate, George Huckins, of Cedar Rapids, in view of the huge busi- ness enterprise they are believed to have organized, the authorities wish to know why the Huckins have xot filed income tax reports. Hundreds of investors who have placed sums estimated at $3,000,000 in the business also have come un- der the scrutiny of the tax assessors. Somé of the investors were called to explain their failure to file tax re- ports on their profits, and moét of them said Huckins had informed them the profite were not taxable. Meanwhile, the nature of the bust- ness enterprise remained a mystery. Not even the investors know, al- though some were led to bélieve it was a “cigar bisiness.” Huckins has denied the existence of a “cigar busi- ness,” but refuses to divulge the de- tails of his enterprise. Huckins was subpoenaéd Monday t6 explain why he had not filed an incotwme tax re- port, but a continuance was grant- ed until late this month.

Oe ang Ss ~ AGAIN BY WERT Mystery Plane Must Leave New York Wednesday for English Races. EAST WIND 1S. NEEDED Annapolis, Md. Aug. 15 (A.P.).— Adverse weather today again defeated the hopes of Lieut. Alford J. Williams to take into the air for the first time his mystery plane, the Mercury racer with which he hopes to reach a speed of approximately 400 miles an hour and win the Schneider Cup. The plane has been weather bound at the U. S. Naval Academy, where it was brought for tests, for a week. It rests on its cradle at the academy dock. waiting to be taken into the air the moment weather conditions are favorable. ——————— the time left for the test is rapidly slipping away. as it must be on board the Leviathan at New York next Wednesday if it is to reach England in time to compete for the United States in the cup races. “An east wind and I will fly,” Lieut. Williams said this afternoon as he admitted the wind had defeated him another day. Lieut. Williams has remained con- stantly with the plane for a week ready to take it into the air as soon as he feels weather conditions fus- tify. Since the first of the week the surface of the Severn River has been rough and wind has rema con- stantly in the north and. northwest. Today he made two trips into the air in Navy planes to test the velocity of the wind. The flights apparently convinced him that it would be un- wise to take his untried 4,000-pound 24-cylindered plane into the air. Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Aeronautics David S. Ingalls yester- day flew here to inspect the Mercury racer. After sitting in the cockpit and op- erating the controls Secretary I said that “the racing plane is the nearest approach to perfection of this that can be attained at the present time, and the energy, enthu- siasm and ability of Williams as a pilot insures that the best possible tesults will be obtained.” Fred Towers Kills Self in Maryland Brother of Baltimofean Is Found Shot in Head, Pistol in Hand.

Hoover last year by a small majority, while Georgia was going about 30,000 for Smith, is to stage a curtain raiser to the Bishop Cannon battle in Virginia, if Hooper Alexander, promi- nent Hoovercrat, carries out his pres- ent intention of running for Con- gress. The death of Representative Leslie J. Steele early this month creates a vacancy for which there will be a primary on September 11, and an election on October 2, just about a month before the counting of ballots in Virginia. : Though he died early in his sec- ond. term, Mr. Steele became almost a national figure in 1926 when he defeated “Willie” Upshaw in the primary in this same district. Upshaw tried to come back last year on the crest of the anti-Smith wave, but Steele defeated him by a big majority in the Democratic primary. f told friends he will carry the banner for the antiorganiza- tion forces in the election, has long been prominent in the State. He was a member of the Legislature and President Wilson appointed him U. 8. District Attorney on the recom- mendation of Senator Hoke Smith. Alexander was one of Hoke Smith's political lieutenants. He has no more use for the powers that be in the Democratic organization in Georgia than Bishop Cannon has for Gov. Byrd in Virginia. Intensely dry, he has not forgiven them for tak- ing off their coats last year for Gov Smith. Incidentally the Georgia or- ganization did a pretty tair job in keeping the State regular, for there was - tremendous Hoover sentiment, even. more tremendous anti-Smith sentiment, and little enthusiasm for Smith even among the regulars. The organization not only won, and though the majority was small, they got out the biggest vote Georgia ever cast for a presidential candidate. They did it without taking a single ,cent of money from national Demo- cratic headquarters. So Georgia Democrats feel no sense of responsi- Pbulty as John J. RasKob struggles to pay off the deficit. They did not help to make it. * T has little. to ee with the present I situation, but the Georgia lead- ers had a motive in working so hard for Smith, and in‘refusing to take money from the national com- mittee. This motive was to win the gratitude of the Tammany leaders, and of Smith admirers in the North- east against the next Democratic na- tional convention.

Incidentally, George was one of the most tireless stump speakers for Smith of fhe en- tire campaign, He even invaded the Middle West as well as almost cover- ing the South, ‘George dominates the State as Pen- rose was never able to do in Penn- syivania in his palmiest days. His colleague, Senator Harris, never thinks of opposing him. The Legislature seeks his views with amading re- spect. The newspaper editors seem to be hero worshipers of their favorite son. The Georgia leaders remember how the northeastern Democratic senators, eager for the nomination of Smith, were also enthusiastic for the nam- ing of Senator Robinson, of Arkan- sas, pointing out that Robinson, a Southerner, had denounced Tom Hef- lin on the floor of the Senate for religious intolerance. They are hop- ing that in June, 1932, those same northeasterners will remember how loyal George, of Georgia, was, how hard his friends worked for Smith, and how they refused Raskob's money. Pe LL of which combines to make Hoover Alexander’s contem- plated fight against these same Georgia leaders more interesting. If he should happen to win, as a Hoo- ver, anti-Smith Democrat all the work done last year by the Georgia leaders because their hopes for George in 1932 would be for nought. Geor- gia would be branded in every news- "| paper headline in the country, they figure, as a “bolter.” The issues seem trivial from a National standpoint even in Virginia. Here there simply are no issues except what may be re- vived from the last campaign. All of which will make the results of the election much more far reaching than if thefe were a clean-cut local issue, Robert C. W. Romspeck is. the or- ganization candidate for the nomina- tion, and his victory over Mrs. George Brown, wife of a member of the legislature from Fulton .

Alexander is a man of rather posi- tive views. After Tom Hardwick was defeated for renomination as sena- tor, he entered the law firm with Alexander. They had words during | the presidential battle last year, and next. day Hardwick’s name scraped off the office door. The happy custom of some north- eri law firms of including at least one outstanding member of each party so as to be able’ to work both sides of the street, is not: practiced ‘much down here.

That opened up ‘the governor's a2 vorite theme—State rights, for which he has campaigned in season and out. Senator Borah (Republican), Idaho. most ardent of latter-day dry cham- pions, instantly pricked up his eare at the Ritchie speech and threatened yesterday to answer it in a formal blast from hia office. He would even meet the governor in.a joint debate on the crucial issue of. State responsi- bility, he’ implied. He thinks the tates are morally bound to cooperate in every way. Borah was suspicious of the Wicker- sham letter, not being sure just what it meant. Suspecting that it meant the Fed- eral Government would leave all the job to the States, save interstate cases. international smuggling, é&c. and that this would leave the wet States free to be as wet as they pleaseti, safe from Federal interference, Borah was ready to pounce on the Wickersham idea as an invention of the enemy.

Indication. 1927 PLAN SUPERSEDED (Associated Press.) The suggestion was put forward in official circles here last night that the naval limitation “conversations now going on between Prime Minister Mac- Donald of Great Britain anc American Ambassador Dawes may result in an even more drastic reduction in the cruiser strength of the tw countries than contemplated at the Geneva conference of 1927. The purpose of the conterence at the White House Wednesday between President Hoover and the officials of the Navy and State Departments who are dealing with the question, was to acquaint all of the interested officials with the situation to date. Parley is Considered. While the State Department offi- clals have been considering mainly the present Dawes-MacDonald nego- tiations, the naval experts have been studying all feasible points to prepare for a possible naval parley of the five interested powers, United States, England, France, Italy and Japan. ' The Chief Executive is known to hold the view that careful preparation is essential before this country would enter a five-power conference. There have been reports current in Washing- ton that such a parley was likely to be held in December prcbably in London. The President’s conference also has given rise to the opinion he is hopeful for an agreement be- tween Dawes and MacDonald on the major political aspects cf the situa- tion as far as America and England are concerned within a few weeks, Cruisers First On Card. Authoritative sources last night ex- pressed the belief the question of cruisers will be dealt. with first in the aiscussions by the United States and England to the exclusion of other warship categories, such as cestroyers and submarines. The feeling here is that a settlement of the cruiser prob- lem is the paramount necessity in the securing of a basic agreement between the two powers and that its settle- ment will leave an agreement on sub- marines and destroyers only as a mat- ter of course. So far, the negotiations have been occupied principally with a settlement of the cruiser question and the fact that the naval general board yesterday was taking up the questicn of sub- marines, mainly from a_ technical viewpoint, was interpretea in some quarters as an indication that the cruiser problem is rapidly approaching settiement. U. S. FACES SETBACK OVER NAVAL ACCORD CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. ers, 67 long-distance submarines and 48 coastal submarines. Italy and France Competing. Italy is building or nag authorized six 10000-ton cruisers; six 5,300-ton s,.one aircraft carrier, 46 de- stroyers and 31 submarines, and her program will give her. nearly 100 destroyers, while Italian cruisers have proved themselves the fastest in the world. The British admit that France and Italy at present are building against each other, not against Great Britain, but they see Great Britain, with the Suez Canal to guard, being reduced to a back number in the Mediter- ranean, Under the hollow pretence that there isn’t room in Malta for the British fleet there, four superdread- noughts are being withdrawn, which is really a strategic admission that | these ships cannot be safely locked in the Mediterranean in the event of a war with a European power, Indirect admission of this is found in the comment of the frequently inspired naval expert, Hector C. By- water, who wrote recently, referring to Franco-Italian rivalry: “Neither power attaches much im- portance to battleships ‘for Mediter- ranéan warfare owing to the massing within a comparatively restricted area of powerful torpedo, submarine and aircraft forees which would. place the slow-moving battleships in constant jeopardy.” British ‘DiMicuities Revealed. The considerations above indicate British difficulties in the Mediterra- nean, while the massing submarines on the Atlantic coast in the event of strained relations with France is also a contingency which worries the admiralty. Besides France and Italy, the prin- cipal naval. powers other than Great Britain are the United States and Japan. over an Anglo-Amer- lean contingency as unthinkable, the Far Eastern situation, in view of the small force kept there, is not satis- factory to Australia. It is now an open secret that the reason MacDonald in his naval speech last month did not announce aban- donment of the Gingapore base, as he wished to do, was._because Australia ofMfitially protested and requested, if not demanded, that the subject be not decided until the next tmperial conference. The Singapore base was started in 1923, but work on it was stopped by the Labor government the next year, an action which alarmed Australia and led to the strengthening of the Australian fieet. When the first Mac- Donald govermment fell its successor, headed by Premier Stanley Baldwin, resumed work om the Singapore base in 1925, New Zealand, the Fetierated Malay States and Hongkong subscrib- ing among them 3,250,000 pounds to- ward the work: A floating dock ca- pable of handling the — battle- ship was sent from England to Singa- pore last year. Abandonment Would Be Costly. Abandonment of Singapore and cancellation of contracts would cost, @cording to the admiralty, half the sum required to complete the job upon the base which, it is hoped py naval authorities. will become the “Gibraltar of the East.” The above facts accurately repre- sent the data upon which British naval advisors refuse to take respon- sibility for recommending any fur- ther cuts in the British cruiser pro- gram, not to mention scrapping com- pleted cruisers, which, under the present. circumstances. may be re- garded as out of the question. It seems, therefore. probable from all information available here that :f the United States wants crulser pari- ty with Great Britain, she will have to build up to it, and a further and most important consideration arises in connection with the French and Italian building programs. minimum for British in future on vom taggin ease like present thout produc- tion in the French and Ttallan crulser "mg Te F ——— * — — sly) — 2 x % oA teh — — — tae 8 = * 3 thy > *8* Pes . — Cet ae 4 J * a i. — =e Sa ag * MacDonald d Is Expected | To Visit U.

HEARING TO BE MONDAY Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 15 (A.P.).— Dr. James H, Snook, former Ohio State University professor, lay at ease in county jail today awaiting either a sentence of death in common pleas court Monday for the murder of nis coed mistress, Theora Hix, or a fav- orable ruling on a motion for a new trial. As the pandemonium following the jury’s verdict of first degree murder broke out yesterday afternoon, Trial Judge = L. Scerlett tentatively set Monday morning as the date for a hearing on a motion for a new trial. If it is denied, he said he would sentence Snook immediately. Within five days from date of gsen- tence Snoqk must be removed to “murderers’ row” in the State peni- tentiary to await electrocution. His attorneys sald they would appeal in the event their motion for a new trial is denied. The future holds no fear for Snook if his diffident attitude is to be taken seriously. | Doctor Ignores Verdict. In his cell in the county jail iast night, six hours after the jury of eleven men and one woman nad found him guilty without mercy, he complacently ignored the verdict that carries with it the penalty of death in the electric chair. “I never gave the punishment a thought until you mentioned it.” he said to reporters. And this expression of his mind was borne out by the expression on his a which was stern and com- He ‘was sprawled on a cot in his cell and a heavy blanket covered him The newspaper men interrupted his A eaten heartily and amused himself with a perusal of a popular magazine. little while earlier he had game of solitaire, his jailors said. But Snook did not talk as freely as he did on a previous occasion when a committee of newspaper men obtained an interview on the details of the killing, which later was used against him in the trial. He has left everything to his attorneys. Snook admitted that when he took the witness stand and testified that he remembergd dealing only four hammer blows on the head of Miss Hix during the quarrel at a rifis range last June 13 he had noi told everything he knows, There is more to the story, he said. But he clung to the assertion that he remembers nothing about severing the girl's jugular vein, an act which he ad- mitted in his alleged confession and which furnished the foundation for a charge of premeditated murder. Twenty-eight minutes after the jury was sent out with this denial the court’s simple charge on the law, and Prosecutor John J. Chester's impassioned plea for conviction. it was ready to announce its decision. The verdict was that Dr. Snook had been found guilty as charged in the indictment. His signed confession that he rained hammer blows on the head of the young girl and severed her jugular vein to put her out of misery, had been believed. Kepudiation Discounted, His repudiation of the confession and his witness stand narrative of what happened at the rifle range on the night of June 13 had been dis- unted and his plea of self-defense and temporary insanity had been dis- carded. The lapse of memory, which he de- scribed. to the jurors when he told them Miss Hix had attacked him, that he struck her four times with a hammer from his automobile and re- gained his senses to find that he had killed her, apparently made no effect on the jury Snook’'s attorneys were displeased at the suddenness of the verdict, which was reached after one ballot, and E. O. Ricketts, chief counsel, openly proclaimed that the defense had been entitled to longer delibera- tion. “The jury did not have time to go into the testimony of this case, and I am.sure that we. will have no trouble reversing the verdict,” Rick- etts said.

Mise Magruder, with her two sisters, both of whom died during the last few years, lived in it as far back as the oldest. resi- dents of Georgetown can remember. police said. Several years azo, shortly after the house was condemned, a wrecking crew was sent out to demolish the dwelling, but was driven away by Miss Magruder. Her demands to leave were so forceful, police said, the wrecking crew did not return. Following the death of her sisters, Miss Magruder's movements remained. somewhat of a mystery to neighbors. She lived practically the life of @ recluse. The few times she did leave her home, however, neighbors were astonished to see her come and go through a front window. The money stolen from Miss Ma- gruder and that which she has secreted about the house wag accu- mulated through investments made with her early savings. police were told. Despite the fact that Miss Ma- gruder wes a lifetime resident of Gecrzetown, police thus far have learned little about her and are try- ing to discover whether she has rela- tives ving in Washington.

Fleharty Sees Agreement. “Oh,” rejoined Fleharty. “if that’s all you are going to claim as the basis for a going concern value, we can get together in agreement.” “But.” Hanna thereupon added, “that is not all. There are many other elements to be takeh into con- sideration, which have been set forth exhaustively in the valuation pros ceedings of the Utilities Commission and the record of that proceeding is a part of this hearing.” E. C. Riegel, of the Washington Consumers Guild, who continued his cross-examination of Hanna when the hearings were resumed yesterday morning; occupied the center of the stage, numerous objections from company counsel and warnings from the com- mission, but failed to disturb Riegei's equanimity or to swerve him from his purpose to try to get Hanna to answer questions phrased so ag not to get a. categorical answer which would be suscepible to misinterpreta- tion Riegel went so far as to tell the commission that it couldn’t force him to confine himself. too closely nor to be too exact in his cross-examination or to draw fine distinctions, but the commission thought decidedly dif- ferent. “It is not tmpossible, but it is en- tirely possible and proper and the miesion intends to do it,” Com- mitsioner Harleigh H. Hartman told Riegel with positiveness. Riegel Is Reprimanded,. At one time Hartman threatened that the commission would have Rie- gel's questioning stricken from the record and started to explain why, but Riegel interrupted. “Just a moment and let me finish my statement,” Hartman commanded with some asperity. Once when Hanna had given an answer which was not the answer Rie- gel wanted he asked the same ques- tion again with only a changed word or two and finally Gen. Mason M. Patrick, retired, chairman, interrupted to rute that “the witness has an- swered that question three times al- ready. Go on to something else.” At one time it seemed that the comniission might put an end to Rie- gel’s examination of the traction head and strike his questions from the record, but it has been reported that Riegel is preparing to write a book which shall be an “expose” of the functioning of the commission and the utilities end neither the com- pany represer™,tives nor the commis- sion was willing to manufacture ma- terial for him. Several. times Gen. Patrick and Commissioner Hartman interrupted his questioning to state that the questions had been answered earlier in the hearing by Hanna and the answers were a part of the formal record of the proceeding. Riegel has been absent from some of the sessions and has not arranged for a copy of the record for himself, and he asked, “Is it incumbent upon every one here to search through the commission records?” “It is incumbent upon any one here ‘Interested in this case to know what is in the record of this case before asking questions about it,” said Hart- man. Hartman Offerr Aid. Hartman. finally offered to go over with Riegel the questions he wanted to ask and help him to pick properly comparable figures and tel] him which were subject to objection as having been previously answered, The re- sult was that at the conciusion of Pleharty’s cross-questioning Riegel again took up the questioning which had been interrupted, and this.time fared better in that there were no objections by company counsel, and Hanna answered, although few times as Riegel wanted him to answer. When he had finished asking his pre- pared questions. apparently loath to stop, he again began phrasing quesa- tions and brought down further ob- jections. and the end of his stay in the post of cross-examiner was de- voted to an effort to question G, Thomas Dunlop, company counsel, on the meaning of various points, and } there was general laughter.

Silent on Compromise. Francqul, in talking with Snowden, did not mention the terms of any pos- sible compromise offer. Beforé Snowden's announcement to- Gay and the answer it drew from the Latin delegations, it was thought the conference might be saved from the stigtha of the word “breakdown” by finding some formula which would permit it to «mm ‘inuve In existence after the disbanument of the princi- pal delegates. One expedient considered was that subcommittees might be appointed to continue working until October and that then, after the meeting of the assembly of the League of Nations, the full conference might be recone yened to continue grappling with the & dous economic and political — bequeathed by the World iY. The gravity of today’s develop- mente, however, makes the possibility of euch an expedient being resorted to stem more remote. ; (Copyright, 1929.)

Depositors Are Reassured, Several hundred depositors were still lined up at paying teller’s win- dows. An oficer of the bank told them they could all get thelr money. “We are shutting the doors now, it being our usual closing hour,” he said. “When you get to the street and find your friends not being ad- mitted, don’t tell them the bank is closed. We will open at 9 tomorrow and all will be paid.” In addition to the false story of Lewis's death, several other factors contributed to the run. Reports of closing of three banks in Norway were published in Norwegian papers in Brooklyn. Non-English speaking depositors read them, and with the long stories of the failures of the City Trust Oo. and Clarke Bros. and of United States Attorney Tuttle’s prosecution of investment tipsters fresh in their minds, were in the right mood for any sort of unfounded rumor. Rumor Born in Speak Basy. A few weeks ago, according to Peter P. Smith, trustee of the bank and ite counsel, a man appeared at the bank and asked for a $16,000 loan on a $10,000 house. He was refused. Following that, Smith understands he went to a speak easy. In the next few days, nimerous reports of the bank being in an insolvent condi- tion were spread about the district, and when the sources of the rumors were traced, Smith sald a number of cases developed where depositors had heard rumors originating in 4 speak- easy.

PATIENTS’ LIVES ENDANGERED BY GALLINGER MENTAL CASES CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. strong room and Jocked up. Although he pounded the door and screamed, the orderlies paid little attention to him, An orderly told me the old man had been there for a considerable time when he should have been at Bt. Elizabeths. He said the man was on the 8t. Elizabeths list, but for some unknown reason, or lack of reason, he had not been sent there. The old man could hardly keep his equilibrium, and often fell. He had a badly blackened and bruised eye which the orderly said he suffered in falling agaimst a door. There were two insane men strapped in bed in adjoining rooms, the doors to which usually were wide open. One of them was hopelessiy and helplessly insane, while the other usually was quite normal, but often became dangerous. The hopelessiy insane man was emaciated and covered with bed sores; he was a sad sight to behola. All he could do was struggle at his bonds and cry, wall and screech for help. His cries were terrifying and nérve-wracking to all, but especially so to the other insane man. The latter seémed all right at times. I fed him once and he talked with me in &@ rational manner. He told me he was just exceedingly nervous and often lost control of himself éntirely. “If I was free now,” he said, “I might lose contro] of myself and kill you, although I like you very much.” “You know,” he continued, “that is hot right. I want to be cured of that.” Of the patients in this depart- ment while I was there, a former soldier probably was the most dan- gerous, certainly the most mentally incompetent. Veteran Has Mania for Work, He had a mania for work: as a consequence, he was allowed to do everything and order other patients around. He worked just as hard as he could all day long, always going in a trot. He ecrubbed the dining room, bathroom, kitchen and latrine a dozgen times a day. He also set the table and washed the dishes. While working he would shout at other patients, ordering them to stay Jout of his way. “Aln’t you got no sense? Can’t you mind your own business?” he would shout. “Keep out of my way. I got work to do.” He often chased other patients out of the kitchen when they had been told to help wash the dishes. As a result, several of the very nervous patients often became so enraged at him that they swore they would smash his face. This former soidier usually fed the hopelessly ingane, bed-strapped man. Once he asked me to help him minister to the insane man, and I went with him. When we got into the room, he ordered me out, telling me to mind my own business. One day he was scrubbing the latrine when a dope patient was sitting on the floor in there. He ordered the patient to get out of his way, and when the latter failed to comply with his order, he proceeded to throw him out of the way. The dope patient became enraged, but he only swore, as he was not physically able to fight. After being chased out of the kitchen, one nervous patient swore he would kill the former soldier if it was the last thing he ever did, but another patient and I finally dis- suaded him. Has No Shoes, Despite Cold. One old man who was only slightly nervous, had a severe cold when ad- mitted, yet he was forced to around in his sock-feet. He nearly froze and had to huddle in the latrine to keep from having an ague. When taken to the hydropathy with other patients, he was given ‘the Same treatment, and was thoroughly douched with cold water, despite his request to the contrary. Each morning the night arrivals offered a rate but pitiable sight. Most of them were alcoholic and dope addicts, and they were bedded on the floor anywhere. One morning there was an old man, an inmate of Soldiers’ Home, lying on a filthy mattress with a, 4 rubber sheet under his head. ad drunk, he was a revolting sight, even to the nurse. An insanely drunk man who had suffered a broken leg two days pre- vious, was bro t in oné night. He was strapped in , but he struggled and yelled in a terrified manner, yet no effort was made to quiet him. A well dressed Man was asieep with his clothes on in the sun- parlor one morning. When the nurse arrived she asked the orderly who the man was. “ft don’t know,” the orderly sald. “The doctor told me to put him to bed in here and release him when 4e awakened.” “Gosh,” the nurse said, “he must be a privileged character around here.” The man apparently was only drunk, so when he awoke he was re- leased. Thé doctors threaten to send - tients to St, Elizabeths on the slight- est provocation. While examining a patient who had attempted suicide the doctor was in- terrogating him concerning the mo- tive. The patient was obdurate. “I'll send you to St. Elizabeths for the rest of your life if you don’t tell me.” the doctor declared. The patient was aware of the old threat apparently, for he only replied, “I don’t give a d—— what you do with me.” Most of the alcoholic and dope. tients had police charges pen against them, but all declared they had much rather be in jail than in that hospital. (Tomorrow Mr. Priee will tell of treatment received at Gallinger in a specific case.) BOARD TO OUTLINE GALLINGER INQUIRY CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. vestigation is a matter which the Board of Public Welfare has not de- cided, although it Ils expected that a decision on the subject will be made at the coming meeting. I[t Is pointed out that a committee of recognized hospital authorities mak- ing a personal investigation probably would be better qualified to discover any defects than the most careful layman. In line with the assignment given him on Wednesday by the Board of Public Welfare, George 8. Wilson, di- rector of the board, spent all day yesterday at the hospital] in a quasi- secret investigation in search of facts to be laid before the board at its forthcoming session. Upon Wilson was placed the task of rounding up and tabulating all avVailabie facts and charges so that when it meets again the board may have as much information as possible in such Shape as tO be most readily serfvice- able in furthering the probe. In behalf of the student nurses of Gallinger, one of their number, Miss H. Howard, yesterday tendered to Dr. Bocock an expression of théir sympathy for the “attacks” upon the management and pledged their loyalty to the hospital and offered their cooperation “in any manner you may see fit to call on us.” DORAN URGES STATE AID ON PROHIBITION CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. basis of complaint of nonaction by the Federal Government.” “In much of the public discussion,” he added, “it seems to be assumed as & premise that the enforcement of liquor laws is a problem solely up to the Federal Government. “We must either bend our efforts to the clarification of the State and Federal function as it relates to po- lice activities nécéssarily arising in connection with enforcement of liquor laws, and bring about a clearer conception of these two functions in the public mind, with a necessary corollary of developing more fully the State police powers and bringing about a discharge of the constitu- tional obligations of those States not now adequatély discharging them, or else embark on a fixed program of éx- panding the facilities of the Federal Government, executive and judicial, to the point where they will com- pletely discharge every enforcement function, great and small, as it re- lates to laws arising from the eight- eenth amendment.” Enforcement Hit. Arthur V. Lashly, 8t. Louis attorney, told the institute that since prohib:- tion there has been released upon the country a vast horde of dangerous criminals who are bettér paid than criminals have ever been before and who have little or no fear that pun- ishment for their crimes will ever overtake them. “Prohibition is not being enforced,” he contended. “In many parts of the country, our surveys definitely esteb- lished that nonenforcement in such Places is due to official laxity, sup- ported by local sentiment. The claim that prohibition can not be enforced is not proven by the fact that it is not being enforced in such com- munities.” Ernest Gruening, editor of the Port- land (Me.) Evening News, told the institute today that Washington cor- respondents of news services merely scratch the surface of Washington news and do not dig to the bottom for the real news in which the public is interested for fear of being “balled out” by Government departments. Washington dispatches, he said, were usually little more than hand- oute. Veteran’s Slayer Is Sent to Asylum Robert L. McDonald Held by Alienists to Be Feeble-Minded. Special to The Washington Post.

Aug. 15—Robert Linden McDonald, 23, Louisa County resident, confessed slayer of John Marshall, World Wer veteran, at hie home near Louisa on the night of July 25, has been committed to the criminal asylum of Marion, Va, and his trial indefinitely postponed following testimony of Dr. J. 5.

J 8 E Mystery Plane Must Leave New York Wednesday for English Races. EAST WIND IS. NEEDED Annapolis, Md. Aug. 15 (A.P.).— Adverse weather today again defeated the hopes of Lieut. Alford J. Williams to take into the air for the first time his mystery plane, the Mercury racer with which he hopes to reach a speed of approximately 400 miles an hour and win the Schneider K The plane has been weather bound at the U. S. Naval Academy, where it was brought for tests, for a week. It rests on its cradie at the academy dock. waiting to be taken into the pod the moment weather conditions are favorable. Meanwhile. the time left for the test is rapidly slipping away, as it must be on board the Leviathan at New York next Wednesday if it is to reach England in time to compete for the United States in the cup races. “An east wind and I will fly,” Lieut. Williams said this afternoon as he admitted the wind had defeated him another day. Lieut. Williams has remained con- stantly with the plane for a week ready to take it into the air as soon as he feels weather conditions fus- tify. Since the first of the week the surface of the Severn River has been rough and wind has rema con- stantly in the north and northwest. Today he made two trips into the air in Navy planes to test the velocity of the wind. The flights apparently convinced him that it would be un- wise to take his untried 4,000-pound 24-cylindered plane into the alr. Assistant Secretary of the Navy for Aeronautics David S. Ingalls yester- day flew here to inspect the Mercury racer. After sitting in the cockpit and © erating the controls Secretary I ls said that “the racing plane is the nearest approach to perfection of this type that can be attained at the present time, and the energy, enthu- siasm and ability of Williams as a pilot insures that the best possible Tesults will be obtained.” Fred Towers Kills - Self in Maryland Brother of Baltimofean Is Found Shot in Head, Pistol in Hand. Denton, Md., Aug. 15.—T. . Pred Towers, brother of Albert G. Towers, of Baltimore, and of former State Sen- ator Lawrence B.

The death of Representative Leslie J. Steele early this month creates a vacancy for which there will be a primary on September 11, and an election on October 2, just about a month before the counting of ballots in Virginia. Though he died early in his sec- ond. term, Mr. Steele became almost a national figure in 1926 when he defeated “Willie” Upshaw in the primary in this same district. Upshaw tried to come back last year on the crest of the anti-Smith wave, but Steele defeated him by a big majority in the Democratic primary. / told friends he will carry the banner for the antiorganiza- tion forces in the election, has long been prominent in the State. He was a member of the Legislature and President Wilson appointed him U. S. District Attorney on the recom- mendation of Senator Hoke Smith. Alexander was one of Hoke Smith’s political NMeutenants. He has no more use for the powers that be in the Democratic organization in Georgia than Bishop Cannon has for Gov. Byrd in Virginia. Intensely dry, he has not forgiven them for tak- ing off their coats last year for Gov. Smith. Incidentally the Georgia or- ganization did a pretty ‘fair job in keeping the State regular, for there was. tremendous Hoover sentiment, even. more tremendous anti-Smith sentiment, and little enthusiasm for Smith even among the regulars. The organization not only won, and though the majority was small, they got out the biggest vote Georgia ever cast for a presidential candidate They did it. without taking a singte ,cent of money from national Demo- cratic headquarters. So Georgia Democrats feel no sense of responsi- buity as John J. Raskob struggles to pay off the deficit. They did not help to make it. « . T has little. to ee with the: present I situation, but the Georgia lead- ers had a motive in working so hard for Smith, and in’refusing to take money from the national com- mittee. This motive was to win the gratitude of the Tammany leaders, and of Smith admirers in the North- east against the next Democratic na- tional convention. The Georgia lead- ers are very serious about the possi- bility that Senator Walter F. George may be the Democratic standard bear- er the next time. His candidacy at Houston was pushed for no other pur- OOPER ALEXANDER, who has/ It Politics : By CARTER FIELD 15.—At-.| pose than to get him before the lead- ers‘ from other States, against the eventualities. of 1932. Incidentally, George was one of the most tireless stump speakers for Smith of: fhe en- tire campaign, He even invaded the Middle West as well as almost cover- ing the South, ‘George dominates the State as Pen- rose was never able to do in Penn- syivania in his palmiest days. His colleague, Senator Harris, never thinks of opposing him. The Legislature seeks his views with amading re- spect. The newspaper editors seem to be hero worshipers of their favorite son. The Georgia leaders remember how the northeastern Democratic senators, eager for the nomination of Smith, were also enthusiasti¢ for the nam- ing of Senator Robinson, of Arkan- sas, pointing out that Robinson, a Southerner, had denounced Tom Hef- lin on the floor of the Senate for religious intolerance. They are hop- ing that in June, 1932, those same northeasterners will remember how loyal George, of Georgia, was, how hard his friends worked for Smith, and how they refused Raskob's money. —— e LL of which combines to make Hoover Alexander’s contem- plated fight against these same Georgia leaders more interesting. If he should happen to win, as a Hoo- ver, anti-Smith Democrat all the work done last year by the Georgia leaders because their hopes for George in 1932 would be for nought. Geor- gia would be branded in every news- paper headline in the country, they figure, as a “‘bolter.” The issues seem trivial from a National standpoint even in Virginia. Here there simply are no issues except what may be re- vived from the last campaign. All of which will make the results of the election much more far reaching than if thefe were a clean-cut local issue, Robert C. W. Romspeck is the or- ganization candidate for the nomina- tion, and his victory over Mrs. George Brown, wife of a member of the legislature from Fulton County, which includes most of Atlanta, is expected by most observers here. He was secretary for Representative Schley Howard, Upshaw’s predecessor, and is popular. Alexander is ‘a man of rather posi- tive views. After Tom Hardwick was defeated for renomination as sena- tor, he entered the law firm with Alexander. They had words during the presidential battle last year, and next. day Hardwick’s name was scraped off the office door. The happy custom of some north- eri law firms of including at least one outstanding member of each party so as to be able’ to work both sides of the street, is not practiced much down here.

He would even meet the governor in. a joint debate on the crucial issue of State responai- bility, he implied. He thinks the tates are morally bound to cooperate in every way.

Indication. 1927 PLAN SUPERSEDED (Associated Press.) The suggestion was put forward in official circles here last night that the naval limitation “conversations now going on between Prime Minister Mac- Donald of Great Britain anc American Ambassador Dawes may result in an even more drastic reduction in the cruiser strength of the tw countries than contemplated at the Geneva conference of 1927. The purpose of the conterence at the White House Wednesday between President Hoover and the officials of the Navy and State Departments who are dealing with the question, was to acquaint all of the interested officials with the situation to date. Parley is Considered. While the State Department offi- clais have been considering mainly the present Dawes-MacDouald nego- tiations, the naval experts have been studying all feasible points to prepare for a possible naval pariey of the five interested powers, United States, England, France, Italy and Japan. - The Chief Executive is known to hold the view that careful preparation is essential before this country would enter a five-power conference. There have been reports current in Washing- ton that such a parley was likely to be held in December prcbably in London. The President's conference also has given rise to the opinion he is hopeful for an agreement be- tween Dawes and MacDonald on the major political aspects cf the situa- tion as far as America and England are concerned within a few weeks, Cruisers First On Card. Authoritative sources last night ex- pressed the belief the question of cruisers will be dealt. with first in the aiscussions by the United States and England to the exclusion of other warship categories, such as destroyers and submarines. The feeling here is that a settlement of the cruiser prob- lem is the paramount necessity in the securing of a basic agreement between the two powers and that its settle- ment will leave an agreement on sub- marines and destroyers only as a mat- ter of course. So far, the negotiations have been occupied principally with a settlement of the cruiser question and the fact that the naval general board yesterday was taking up the questicn of sub- marines, mainly from a_ technical viewpoint, was interpretea in some quarters as an indication that the cruiser problem is rapidly approaching settiement.

Italy is building or hag authorized six 10000-ton cruisers; six 5,300-ton cruisers,.one aircraft carrier, 46 de- stroyers and 31 submarines, and her program will give her. nearly 100 destroyers, while Italian cruisers have proved themselves the fastest in the world. The British admit that France and Italy at nt are building against each other, not against Great Britain, but they see Great Britain, with the Suez Canal to guard, being reduced to a back number in the Mediter- ranean, Under the hollow pretence that there isn’t room in Malta for the British fleet .there, four superdread- noughts are being withdrawn, which is really a strategic admission that | these ships cannot be safely locked in the Mediterranean in the event oF a war with a European power. Indirect admission of this is found in the comment of the frequently inspired naval expert, Hector C. By- water, who wrote recently, referring to Franco-Italian rivalry: “Neither power attaches much im- portance to battleships for Mediter- ranean Warfare owing to the massing within a comparatively restricted area of powerful torpedo, submarine and aircraft forces which would place the siow-moving —— in constant jeopardy.” British DiMicuities Revealed. The considerations above indicate British difficulties in the Mediterra- nean, while the massing of French submarines on the Atlantic coast in the event of strained relations with France is also a contingency which worries the admiralty. Besides France and Italy, the prin- cipal naval. powers other than Great Britain are the United States and Japan. over an Anglo-Amer- lean contingency as unthinkable, the Far Eastern situation, in view of the small force kept there, is not satis- factory to Australia. It is now an open secret that the reason MacDonald in his naval speech last month did not announce aban- donment of the Gingapore base, as he wished to do, was.Dbecause Australia officially protested and requested, if not demanded, that the subject be not decided until the next imperial conference. The Singapore base was started in 1923, but work on it was stopped b the Labor government the next year, an action a Australia and led to the strengthening of the Australian fieet. When the first Mac- Donald government fell its successor, headed by Prem Stanley Baldwin, resumed work on the Singapore base in 1925, New Zealand, the Fetierated Malay States and Hongkong subscrib- ing among them 3,250,000 pounds to- ward the work: A floating dock ca- pable of ery ws the largest battle- ship was sent from England to Singa- pore last year, Abandonment Would Be Costly. Abandonment of Singapore and cancellation of contracts would cost, @pcording to the admiralty, half the sum required to complete the job upon the base which, it is hoped ny naval authorities. will become the “Gibraltar of the East.” The above facts accurately repre- sent the data upon which British naval advisors refuse to take respon- sibility for recommending any fur- ther cuts in the British cruiser pro- gram, not to mention scrapping com- pleted cruisers, which, uynder the present. circumstances, may be re- garded as out of the question. . It seems, therefore. probable from all information available here that :f the United States wants crulser pari- ty with Great Britain, she will have to build up to it, and a further and most im t consideration arises in connection with the French and Italian building programs.

It is ex- pected that he will then be able to discuss tentative arrangements for a five-power conference.

SINOOK UNWORRIED OVER DEATH VERDICT Lies at His Ease in Jail and Declares Whole Story Is Yet Untold. HEARING TO BE MONDAY Columbus, Ohio, Aug. 15 (A.P.).— Dr. James H. Snook, former Ohio State University professor, lay at ease in county jail today awaiting either a sentence of death in common pleas court Monday for the murder of his coed mistress, Theora Hix, or a fav- orable ruling on a motion for a new trial. As the pandemonium following the jury’s verdict of first degree murder broke out yesterday afternoon, Trial Judge Henry L. Scerlett tentatively set Monday morning as the date for a hearing on a motion for a new trial. If it is denied, he said he would sentence Snook immediately. Within five days from date of gen- tence Snook must be removed to “murderers’ row” in the State penti-) tentiary to await electrocution. His attorneys said they would appeal in the event their motion for a new trial is denied. The future holds no fear for Snook if his diffident attitude is to be taken seriously. Doctor Ignores Verdict. In his cell in the county jail iast night, six hours after the jury of eleven men and .one woman nad found him guilty without mercy, he complacently ignored the verdict that carries with it the penalty of death in the electric chair. “I never gave the punishment a thought until you mentioned it,” he said to reporters. And this expression of his mind was borne out by the expression on his a which was stern and com- He was sprawled on a cot in his cell and a heavy blanket covered him The newspaper men interrupted his perusal of a popular magazine. A little while earlier he had eaten heartily and amused himself with a game of solitaire, his jailors said. But Snook did not talk as freely as he did on a previous occasion when a committee of newspaper men obtained an interview on the details of the killing, which later was used against him in the trial. He has left everything to his attorneys. Snook admitted that when he took the witmess stand and testified that he remembergd dealing only, four hammer blows on the head of Miss Hix during the quarrel at a rifis range last June 13 he had not told everything he knows, There is more to the story, he said. But he clung to the assertion that he remembers nothing about severing the girl’s jugular vein, an act which he ad- mitted in his alleged confession and which furnished the foundation for a charge of premeditated murder. Twenty-eight minutes after the jury was sent out with this denial the court’s simple charge on the law, and Prosecutor John J. Chester's impassioned plea for conviction, it was ready to announce its decision. The verdict was that Dr. Snook had been found guilty as charged in the indictment. His signed confession that he rained hammer blows on the head of the young girl and severed her jugular vein to put her out of misery, had been believed. Kepudiation Discounted, His repudiation of the confession and his witness. stand narrative of what happened at the rifle range on the night of June 13 had been dis- counted and his plea of self-defense and temporary insanity had been dis- carded. The lapse of memory, which he de- scribed. to the jurors when he told them Miss Hix had attacked him, that he struck her four times with a hammer from his automobile and re- gained his senses to find that he had killed her, apparently made no effect on the jury. Snook’s attorneys were displeased at the suddenness of the verdict, which was reached after one ballot, and E. O. Ricketts, chief counsel, openly proclaimed that. the defense had been entitled to longer delibera- tion. “The jury did not have time to go into the testimony of this case, and I am.sure that we.will have no trouble reversing the verdict,” Rick- etts sald POORHOUSE INMATE OWNER OF FORTUNE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.

Several years azo, shortly after the house was condemned, a wrecking crew was sent out to demolish the dwelling, but was driven away by Miss Magruder. Her demands to leave were so forceful, police said, the wrecking crew did not return. Following the death of her sisters, Miss Magruder's movements remained. somewhat of a mystery to neighbors. She lived practically the life of a recluse. The few times she did leave her home, however, neighbors were astonished to see her come and go through a front window. The money stolen from Miss Ma- gruder and that which she has secreted about the house wag accu- mulated through investments made with her early savings, police were told. Despite the fact that Miss Ma- gruder wea a lifetime resident of Gecerzetown, police thus far have learned little about her and are try- ing to discover whether she has rela- tives living in Washington.

Fleharty Sees Agreement. “Oh,” rejoined Fleharty. “if that’s A you are going to claim as the basis for a going concern value, we can get together in agreement.” “But.” Hanna thereupon added, “that is not all. There are many other elements to be takeh into con- sideration, which have been set forth exhaustively in the valuation pro- ceedings of the Utilities Commission and the record of that proceeding is a part of this hearing.” E. C. Riegel, of the Washington Consumers Guild, who continued his cross-examination of Hanna when the hearings were resumed yesterday morning; occupied the center of the stage, numerous objections from company counsel and warnings from the com- mission, but failed to disturb Riegel's equanimity or to swerve him from his purpose to try to get Hanna to answer questions phrased so ag not to get a.categorical answer which would be suscepible to misinterpreta- tion Riegel went so far as to tell the commission that it couldn’t force him to confine himself. too closely nor to be too exact in his cross-examination or to draw fine distinctions, but the commission thought decidedly dif- ferent. : “It is not impossible, but it is en- tirely possible and proper and the comMmiesion intends to do it,” Com- missioner Harleigh H. Hartman told Riegel with positiveness. Riege! Is Reprimanded. “~~ At one time Hartman threatened that the commission would have Rie- gel's questioning stricken from the record and started to explain why, but Riegel interrupted. “Just a moment and let me finish my statement,” Hartman commanded with some asperity. Once when Hanna had given an answer which was not the answer Rie- gel wanted he asked the same ques- tion again with only a changed word or two and finally Gen. Mason M. Patrick. retired, chairman, interrupted to rute that “the witness has an- swered that question three times al- ready. Go on to something else.” At one time it seemed that the comnmiission might put an end to Rlie- gel's examination of the traction head and strike his questions from the record, but it has been reported that Riegel is preparing to write a book which shall be an “expose” of the functioning of the commission and the utilities end neither the com- pany represer@:tives nor the commis- sion was willing to manufacture ma- terial for him. Several. times Gen. Patrick and Commissioner Hartman interrupted his questioning to state that the questions had been answered earlier in the hearing by Hanna and the answers were a part of the formal record of the proceeding. Riegel has been absent from some of the sessions and has not arranged for a copy of the record for himself, and he asked, “Is it incumbent upon every one here to search through the commission records?’ "It is incumbent upon any one here ‘Interested in this case to know what is in the record of this case before asking questions about it,” said Hart. man. Hartman Offerr Aid. Hartman finally offered to go over with Riegel the questions he wanted to ask and help him to pick properly comparable figures and tell him which were subject to objection as having been previously answered. The re- sult was that at the conciusion of Pleharty’s cross-quesationing Riegel again took up the questioning which had been interrupted, and this .time fared better in that there were no objections by company counsel, and Hanna answered, although few times as Riegel wanted him to answer.

Blae Ridge Industrial School was operied January, 1910, with 12 board- ing and 20 day puplis, 4 employes and 1 building, Neve Hall. Today there are 125 boarding and 30 day pupils, 19 employes, 600 acres of land and 19 buildings. The property is valued at $110,000. Admission to the school is restrict- ed to coubtry chfidren of limited means, preferably from isolated mountainous sections. The course of instruction is through high school, der the Virginia State Board of Edu- cation. The school was in operation four years before a pupil was ready for high school. Today there are 48 in high school. In June, 1918, eight years after opening, the school had ita first grad- uates—2 girls from the nvighborhood. At the present time the graduates number 47.

SNOWDEN’S DEMANDS. - Philip Snowden, British chancellor of the exchequer, is giving the world a timely and much-needed lesson in the art of frank, open and aboveboard diplomacy. His demands on behalf of the British have brought resentment ‘and dismay to those statesmen who have relied upon the Young plan to reap advantages for their nationals, and the cry has gone forth that Britain is wrecking the reparations settlement, checking the progress of humanity and retarding the peace of the world. “But the cry becomes feeble by the time it reaches Snowden’s ears. It is apparently drowned out by the persist- ent cries of British needs, British jus- tice and the Anglo-Saxon conception of fair play. Snowden is proceeding on the assumption that he represents the British people and that his main duty lies in meeting British desires in so far as the situation permits. He is, there- fore, fighting with his back to the wall for his own people and is not in the least disturbed by the coalition of in- térnationalism arrayed against him. ‘The curious fact is that Snowden probably will win. His plea on behalf of Britain is backed by a brand of na- tional spirit and blunt sincerity that can not be checked by protestations os- tensibly based on international good will but in reality prompted by self- interest. The difference is that other statesmen are out for the interests of their own peoples and are using inter- nationalism as a cloak for their designs, while Snowden is fighting for the Brit- ish and has the courage to say so. Why is there anything sacred about the series of recommendations drawn international financiers after weeks of bargaining and secret intrigue and called the Young plan? The fact that the agreement was accompanied by world-wide torrents of inspired pub- licity does not change the effect it would have on the British people if it were now accepted by the British govern- ment. Mr. Snowden has not allowed the glamour of a supposed solution to dull his keen power of analysis in as- sessing the value of the so-called plan. He wants to know why France gets all the unconditional German annuities, amounting to between 500,000,000 and 600,000,000 gold marks annually, and why the British get none of these an- nuities of ready-cash value, represent- ing one-third of the total German pay- ments. And he says flatly that Britain will not accept any such proposition. His demand of 45,000,000 gold marks annually for Britain seems now a mod- est and reasonable claim. ‘Snowden also does not see why Brit- ish industry and the British working- man should suffer as a consequence of the agreement respecting German de- liveries in kind. The private experts admitted that these deliveries worked a hardship on Britain when they agreed ta. eliminate them after a ten-year period, but Snowden sees no reason for the British to suffer for ten years. Be- fore he will agree to these readjust- ments he wants to have gurantees that British interests will be adequately protected. And he sees no reason for France to be accorded such a huge share of the total German annuities, amounting to more than 50 per cent, while Britain remains with an allot- ment of about 19 per cent, which is lower than the figure under the Dawes plan. France reminds Snowden that the British government agreed to the rec- ommendations of the private experts and adds that the Young plan is now , 4 — 1 be leet Wid ms at . » hi “gn indivisible whole” whigh can not be touched without an implication of bad faith. As a matter of fact, the bad faith might be implied from, the statement that the British government had in reality committed itself to the under- taking because, when the experts were in session, the world was assured again and again that it was a conference of private financial experts wholly di- vorced from governmental considera-, tion and control. But this was, of course, part and parcel of the camou- flage which has so persistently sur- rounded international bargaining since the end of the World War. Snowden declares that the conservative govern- ment of Great Britain agreed to the Young plan over his protest and he re- fuses to be bound. He has the support of the British people in his stand. So far all pressure used to sway Snowden from his course has failed. Son of a British workman and brought up in a hard school of life, Snowden has fought his way upward by dint of his fearless and constant battle for what he believes to be right. He has lost his health in the battle and requires the aid of two canes to support his frail form. But he has not lost his fire of enthusiasm for British interests, or his idealism tempered with an uncanny faculty for eliminating international sham. His example on behalf ‘of his country might well be followed with profit elsewhere. A $46,000,000 BUDGET. Although the $48,315,000 tentative budget set by the District Commissioners provided no more than a starvation diet for the Dis- trict, the Budget Bureau has ordered a fur- ther lopping off of some $2,000,000. The tentative maximum allocation for the Dis- trict in President Hoover’s 1931 financial program, says the bureau, has been fixed at $46,337,000, necessitating a cut from the Commissioners’ figure amounting to $1,978,- 000. If this amount will not provide for the absolute necessities, the bureau says further, supplemental statements will have to be filed showing the additional amounts needed. It is not easy to see what connection exists between the President’s economy pro- gram and the District budget. The Govern- ment will contribute to the cost of running the District exactly $9,000,000 and the bal- ance of the budget will be made up by the taxpayers. The $48,000,000 figure was set by the Commissioners as the,amount that would be obtained by continuing the present tax rate, adding to the revenues obtained therefrom the $9,000,000 lump sum, and by utilizing a part of the surplus held to the District’s credit in the Treasury. This sur- plus is made up entirely of taxpayers’ money. The figure set by the Budget Bureau amounts to slightly less than the estimated total revenues of the District for 1931, making no provision for utilization of the surplus. It will be remembered that the District came in for considerable criticism not long agc for having permitted a surplus to stack up in the Treasury. The District of Columbia occupies a most unenviable and difficult position. It is not allowed to determine its needs and make provision for their satisfaction according to the income available. Yet Congress consist- ently refuses to recognize its responsibility for the welfare of the District by assuming a fair share of the cost of its maintenance. The Budget Bureau makes the District con- form to the national economy program, de- priving its citizenry of needed facilities and services. And Congress continues, year after year, to dole out a miserable $9,000,- 000 as the Government’s contribution to the cost of running and maintaining the Capital City. The Budget Bureau’s suggestion that, in the event its budget figure will not provide the minimum necessities, supplemental esti- mates may be filed, amounts to an admis- sion of the inadequacy of the smaller figure. Unquestionably, the District will have to look to supplemental appropriations for funds to satisfy many pressing needs in 1931. CRITICISM OF JURIES., A large majority of students of the American judicial system will agrée with Prof. Raymond Moley, of Columbia Univer- sity, in deploring the insignificance of judges in the administration of criminal justice. Juries, prosecuting attorneys, and even de- fense attorneys have usurped a large share of the functions which should be reserved for judges. The learning and the judgment of the court are of vital importance in de- ciding only a few cases. In the regular rou- tine of State tribunals the judge is merely the referee. Prof. Moley would take the authority of deciding the guilt or innocence of accused persons from pfrosecuting attorneys and juries and reinvest it in the judges. He would make it the judges’ duty to determine whether or not the defendant is guilty, but the sentence would: be passed by a board of experts. All sentences would be indetermi- nate, on the theory that the time each person should serve for a particular crime depends upon the progress made during incarcera- tion. Severe criticism has been heaped upon the jury system from many sources. Students of criminal justice are generally agreed that under present conditions an ignorant jury becomes the tool of clever lawyers in setting criminals free. But it is not yet determined that the usefulness of juries has passed. The defects lie In methods employed to select jurymen and in the conduct of cases before them. The American people will not likely be willing to give up the right of “trial by jury’’ until the failure of the system under changed conditions has been proved. Some of the — * have made decided improve- ments by selecting higher grade jurors. The relatively inferior position of the American judge is a subject that certainly needs attention. Many cases are left almost | entirely to the judgment of the — attorney. If he thinks the evidence insuffl- cient to secure a conviction, the case is dis- missed on his recommendation. If the case is difficult, he frequently agrees to prosecute the defendant on a lesser charge providing the defendant pleads guilty. Rigid sentences are often fixed by law, so the judge has little to say. This weakness is much more apparent in the State than in the Federal courts, one reason being that the judiciary is in serious need of strengthening in most, if not all, of the States. Procedure should be readjusted to throw more responsibility for punishment of criminals on the judges. The administra- tion of justice can never be scientific and efficient until a greater degree of expert knowledge and seasoned judgment is brought to bear on individual cases.

SLAVERY IN LIBERIA? New York Dispatch to the Toronto Mail and Empire. Liberia, founded by Americans in 1822 to provide a democratic refuge for Negro freedmen, has so far failed of its founders’ plans that it is now virtually an unlimited , autocracy which, through a system of forced labor, has reinstituted slavery, according to T. J. R. Faulkner, who is now in this country after more than 35 years in the African republic. Mr. Faulkner was defeated for the Presi- dency of Liberia in the 1927 elections by Charles D. B. King, who is now serving his third term of four years in that office. In 1919, King, running unopposed, re- ceived 4,000 votes. In 1923 his opponent, Harmon, received 7,000 votes and he claimed 40,000. In eight years the total of votes rose from 4,000 to 211,000. The ascendancy of King, according to Mr. Faulkner, has enabled him to assess arbi- trary fines and impose arbitrary imprison- ments. Thus the attorney for the People’s Party in the election case was fined $50 for “contempt of court.” Judges are appointed by the president and hold office at his pleasure. Mr. Faulkner unconditionally corroborates the charges in Raymond Leslie Buell’s book, “The Native Problem in Africa,’’ that the Liberian government enforces a system of virtual slavery upon natives from the back country, impressed to work on the roads. Not only are these workers not paid, but they are compelled to furnish their own tools and food and rice and palm oil for the over- seers, who often treat them brutally. The government has never consented to investigate charges that the natives were beaten, in some cases fatally, on these gangs, and the one native commissioner who at- tempted to bring the situation to the govern- ment’s attention was promptly relieved of his duties. The laborers are subject to “‘fines”’ for various petty offenses and are sometimes compelled to sell their food to pay these assessments. In addition, the chiefs are oppressed by the “hut” tax. Polygamy is almost an economic necessity for the aborigines of the interior, and the men set their families up in different establishments to cultivate vari- ous plots of ground. A tax of $1 is levied by the government on each “hut.”” Trans- portation facilities are so bad that though the interior is rich agriculturally, and living costs along the coast approximate those of New York, only a small percentage of the needs of the coast inhabitants are supplied from the interior, some produce being car- rféd out on the heads of natives. As a consequence, many of the back country natives hardly see a dollar from one year’s end to the next, and the chiefs who are responsible for the hut taxes of their tribes are often fined or imprisoned for being unable to raise the amount demanded by the government. The government also ships natives to the nearby Spanish island of Fernando Po, draft- ing workers from the tribes of the interior. The premium ef $50 per native paid by the Spanish planters to the government officials concerned in making the shipments is divided among them, Mr. Faulkner says. While it is to the interest of the planters to treat these laborers well, there is no ques- tion of obtaining their consent before ship- ping them. Mr. Faulkner is by no means the ordinary type of embittered patriot. He was born in North Carolina and educated there and at Cooper Union in New York. He went to Liberia as an engineer and has served the country in various capacities as an engineer and a citizen. He was wartime mayor of Monrovia, the capital and most important city of the country, which has a population of 5,000 to 6,000. He brought in the first electric lights, the first telephone, built the first five miles of road, owned the first motion picture theater and still owns the only ice plant and the only hotel in the country. Three of his brothers, two engineers and a doctor, have died in Liberia. Since the United States took over the Liberian debt outstanding to France and England this country has maintained a number of officials to look in on the conduct of Liberia’s financial affairs. These five offi- cilals draw about $50,000 from Liberia’s annual revenues of less than $1,000,000. This circumstance, coupled with the fact that President King has raised his own salary to $15,600 and that of his 10 senators and 21 representatives to $2,000, partially ac- counts for the fact that the country is making no extraordinary financial progress, Mr. * eh ge a * * Pe ‘ » ‘ 4 hi , +i * ried ; : as OMe — ee it cek wed Ne af , ee —— hy ww ¢HA™ - KUAM*249 - Hey, diddle, diddle, The drum and the fiddle.

But now that women are successfully entering the | factories and the professions, she .| sees no reason why they should bé discriminated against in the Navy. The midshipmen are said to be grinning over the idea. They have no objections at all to a little feminine company. In fact, the first maid who enters the academy is said to be as- sured of a royal welcome, But the Officials themselves are confronted with the problem of distracting the congresswomen from turning Annap- olis into a boys’.and girls’ school.

Blake, instructor in edu- * cational dramatics at Teachers * lege, Columbia University, has dis- covered after many years of research ¢ that posture is an excellent index to. character. He can determine a per- — son's salient characteristics by watching how that person holds him- ok self, the way he walks, the stiffness of his knees, or the position of his ¢ elbows. — oe Character is a very interesting © study. I know’ several men who | have uncanny ability to tell a pers son all about his idiosyncracies by just looking at him, or feeling his: skull. It is not surprising that Prof. | Blake has determined a striking re- lationship - between posture and || ¢haracter. It leads to the conclusion | that in most cases human bodies are expressions of personalities. The body acts and grows as the mind thinks, and it is not strange that a keen observer can tell what forces shaped each one of us as he is. Of _ course we are revealed in our pos- ture, in our talk, in our actions, as- — sumed or natural, and even in the © quality of our work and the expres- , sions on our faces. What kind of 4 creature would man be if his bodily © structure did not harmonize with . the spirit that gives it life? GERALD J. MORGAN.

Au Revoir! ” Uncle Ray’s Corner The Story of Speed. V—THE AIRPLANE. . HIRTY-THREE years ago the first successful flight of a mv- tor-driven airplane was made. An American scientist, Samuel Lang- ley, tested a plane of his own design over the Potomac River, in the State of Virginia. A glider and a modern monoplane. Langley’s plane flew for half a mile in 1% minutes. That was a rate of 20 miles an hour. A few months later another Langley model flew three-quarters of a mile at the speed of 30 miles an hour. Langley’s airplanes were driven by —— engines and flew without pi- ots, Six years later, in December, 1903, Wilbur and Orville Wright flew 4 man-carrying machine in private tests. In 1808 they made public tests, and — that their biplane could travel more than 35 miles an hour. During the years which followed swift progress was made in the art of flying. .Inventors in Europe did great work in building better air- planes. Santos-Dumont, of Brazil, was one of the great pioneers in the work. A Frenchman flew across the English Channel. The seaplane—or “flying boat”—was invented, and made successful flights. The year 1919 was important bde- cause it saw the first filght across the Atlantic Ocean. A seaplane under the command of Lieut. Read flew from Newfoundland to Portu- gal, pausing in the water along the way. The first nonstop airplane trip across the Atlantic was made in the Same year by John Alcock and Ar- thur Brown. Flying in a biplane from Newfoundland, they safely land- ed in Ireland—the speed of -gir flight being well over 100 miles an hour. Eight years later Charles Lind- bergh made a nonstop flight from New York to Paris. Airplanes usually fly at the rate of from 75 to 125 miles an hour, but records have been made for short distances as high as 250 miles rer Tomorrow—A Little Satufday Talk. (Copyright, 1929.)

In this con- nection it is well to remember that no double is informatory in Auction and business in Contract; but there are & few doubles, business in Auc- tion, that are informatory. in Con- tract. The following would be an example of a repeated double: South one Spade, West uble, North two Spades, East and South pass, and West a second double. In this case the second double is informatory be- cause it is made before the ‘partner of the doubler has bid or doubled. North’s bid of two Spades on the first round relieved East of the obli- gation to answer West's informatory double, but the double having been made, showing a desire for a bid, East’s passing showed considerable weakness, although not necessarily a trickless hand. When West doubled the second he announced much greater CONTRACT There seems to time, strength than he did by his first dou- ble, because hé repeated his request for a bid in the face of East’s appar- ent reluctance to make one and in spite of its forcing a high answering bid from East.

This dis- order due to a worm which bores its way through the tissues just be- neath the skin, causing a peculiar eruption which progresses in jagged lines, day by day. The itching is intense, especially at the progressing end of the mole run in which the worm is located. I heard once of a drummer travel- ing by automobile, who picked up a back full of these worms. As he traveled along one day his machine Sputitered and, stopped. It needed some tinkering from below. The drummer pushed it to a hice cool, moist, grassy spot on one side of the road, stripped to the waist, crawled underneath and lay on his back while he tinkéred. When he had fin- ished the job he went to a nearby stream, washed up, dressed, and ,drove into town. A week later his back looked like a canebrake criss- crossed by cOwpaths. Drs. Kirby Smith, Dove and White have. seen more than 3,000 such cases. They have proved that the cause is a hookworm somewhat re- lated to the hookworm of man. However, this hookworm lives in the digestive tract of dogs and cats. Tne éggs and young worms are deposited in the soil, and there they stay until there is a chance to get into another host. They can live only in moist soil, and they prosper only in warm weather. The best sol] for them ts one containing a considerable amount re sand, as well as warmth and mois- ure. The measures of prevention recom- mended by Drs. Smith, Dove and White are: not to go barefooted; not to wade in nds, pools, or streams; not to let the skin touch the soil; not to sit on the ground, and not TO KEEP WEL . A.

You may say that Mr. Collins was merely talking up his boss, but I do not think he was, and anyway if he had been, he would have given the boss the credit for winning the penmant and the players the assist. Incidentally, before going thto di- rect quotes on Mr. Collins’ opinion of Mr. Mack, whom he regards as a valu- able citizen on or off the ball field, I will report that when a ball team has a lead of thirteen and a half games over its nearest competitor, and the competitor is making no progress fast with about 50 games remaining, it is not easy if at all possible, to con- vince the Athletics that they are still engaged in a hard fight. Mr. Mack still tells his athletes that, but I do not think they believe him. He prob- ably does not believe it himself. Connie Knows It All, Ty Cobb Asserts. Mr. Collins: “Connie Mack knows ‘more baseball than any other man in the game. When Ty Cobb came down to play with us, he said, ‘I used to think I knew something about play- ing the outfield, but this fellow knows it all.” “You may not think it means much when he gets up there on the step of the dugout and moves the outfield one way or another by wav- ing his score card at them, but if you do not think so just watch and see how many times a fly ball comes down right where he has planted a man to receive it. “He does not sign for every pitch, as they say John McGraw does. do not know whether McGraw really does or not, but Connie lets his pitch- ers do the pitching, except that he will make a suggestion now and then. I mean, when they-are on the bench, he,may say to a pitcher, ‘Don’t you think so-and-so hits curved balls best? Let’s not throw him any curves.’ Card Flashes Signals To His Outfielders. “And when he is moving his out- fielders. around, he considers not only what the hitter’s habits are but what kind of ball the pitcher is throw- ing. If it is going to be a fast ball and the hitter is likely to be a little late meeting it, he moves the .out- fielders over one way. If it is a curve the hitter is more likely to hit to his natural spot, if he hits, and Connie moves the. field- ers back again. You never can realize unless you have worked with him how accurately he can judge the direc- tion and distance that any given hit- ter will send the ball, if he knows the hitter. “Sometimes he moves the infielders, too, but generally’ his signals with the score card are for the outfielders. It is very-hard to.hit them where Connie's outfielders ain’t and if they are good outfielders they just put out their hands and catch the ball and the fellow is out. Only One Boss and McGillicuddy Is It. “There is no such thing as a coun- cil of assistant Managers on this ball club. although Kid Gleason and I have both had experience as mana- gers. There is only one koss, and Connie is it. I never say any man who could stand the strain and ten- sion as he can at the age of 66. He rides the railroads all summer long and runs the ball club in all kinds of weather from the terrible cold of the spring to the awful heat of St. Louls in July and August, but he leads a regular life and, moreover, he has a mind that does not waste en- ergy on nonessentials. When I first came to the team I would be limp from excitement at the end of a game, | after watching another fellow play- ing second base and thinking hoW I would have done it if I had been out there. “Now and again, when a tense situ- ation develops, you will see Connie’s hands tighten on the score card. He will sit up straight and rigid with anxiety. But when the next play is done, whether it goes our way or the other way it is past, and his grip on the score card loosens and his body sags.- He knows how to relax, either naturally or by cultivated habit. Understands Men Better Than Do Themselves. “I have never heard him bawl a man out for anything. I have heard players come in, though, and ask him what it was that they did wrong when they” knew they had done something wrong. He does not fine them. He does not shadow them. He just tells them what the club rules are and if they simply won't live by his rules he won’t have them. He understands the men better than they understand themselves. “ When a fellow gets excited and does not know what he is thinking about, Connie knows just about what’s on his mind. He gets no pleasure out of humiliating or hurting men and I have never seen him do it. Once in GCONTINUED ON PAGE 14, COLUMN 8. SALE of | — gy THIS STORE CLOSES ATg~ —— 1:00 P. M.

Russeil Stars in Box; Play Uniontown in Region Finals. Special to The Washington Post. HILADELPHIA, Aug. 15.—Wash- ington’s entry in the American Legion’s national junior baseball tourney advanced to ‘he final round for the championship of Région 10 by defeating Morgantown, of West Vir- ginia, 11 to 3, at Shibe Park, in the first game of the afternoon’s twin bill. Everett Russell, who did the hurl- ing for the victors, limited Morgan- town to six hits and was never in any serious danger. \ Washington jumped on the offer- ings of Pervola, Morgantown’s start- ing hurler, for a three run lead in the first inning and maintained the ad- vantage throughout. P. Facchina and George, of Was 1ington, were the stars of the contest with the stick. They obtained the only extra base blows of the game. P. Facchina Triples To Center. P. Facchina drove a triple to center and when Hodges juggled the ball he went all the. way home on the hit. rThe other long distance hit was a Tl double by George in the fifth inning. In the other semifinal battle Union- town, Pennsylvania’s hope, turned back Baltimore, 8 to 6. Forchiak started on the hill for Uniontown, but Baltimore scored six runs in the sec- ond and Joe Smith took up the hill job to hold Baltimore in check for the rest of the way. Bill Yosenka, with three hits, led the Uniontown attack. In the final game tomorrow morn- ing, Washington will meet Uniontown. Baltimore this morning started in an impressive style by beating out Wilmington’s strong nine that carried ‘the Delaware title into competition, 10 to 9, after a stirring late rally. George or Buscher to Pitch Today. Encouraged by its apparently easy triumph against Morgantown, the George Washington Post Team will enter the final battle tomorrow with practically the same line-up. Coach Tom Suter is undecided which of his two other moundsmen will take the mound against Uniontown. He has both Lefty George and Emmett Buscher available for duty. Either would be a good bet, he believes. After watching the Uniontown Sluggers come from behind to win against right-handed pitching, Suter indicated that he would likely de- pend on his left-hander, es George. The latter was ineligible to pitch in the District of Columbia championship series, under a special ruling handed down by W. W. Watt, director. The ease with which the District champs turned back their opposition in their lone start tends to make them a favorite to win tomorrow and carry the No. 10 regional title back to Washington for the Eastern finals in American League Park, starting next Tuesday. The Capital City lads did everything in great style against Morgantown. Russell pitched fault- lessly and got perfect support afield. His mates hit timely, scoring one or more runs in every inning but the fourth and sixth. 0 Morgant’n. ABHO Tucker,lf.. 1'Bryan,c... 1'Laurie, 3b. . j ’ li, rf. Jeschio.ss.

Head Flays Paddock For “‘Admitted Hypocrisy” Feud Flares Anew as Brandage Brands Articles False. EW YORK, Aug. 15 (A.P.).—The controversy between Charley Paddock, famous sprinter, and the Amateur Athletic Union, which has been raging off and on for the last half-dozen years, broke out afresh today when Avery Brundage, A. A. U. president, issued a broadside in answer to statements made by Paddock in the current issue of Col- lier’s Weekly. “By admitting that he has been sailing under false colors and never has been an amateur honestly, actu- ated solely by the love of the game,” Paddock, in the magazine article in question, “confirms the suspicions” which nearly caused his disbarment | from the Olympic team last year, | Brundage declared. “It seems unfair for Paddock, who. has made sO much money from the lecture platform, the movies and the | magazines, while eluding athletic au- thorities and keeping his amateur standing, to couple himself with poor Jolie Ray and unfortunate Charley Hoff, who were so unsuccessful in CHARLEY PADDOCK, their attempts to make a living from amateur athletics and were declared professionals. Rank Sensationalism, Brundage Says. “Paddock’s article is filled with in- accuracies and untraths, is sensa- tionalism of the rankest sort and is just what might be expected from one whose record has been so replete with efforts to cash in on his athletic prowess regardless of the rules.” Outlining the discussion that arose after the Olympic trials concerning Paddock’s amateur status, Brundage said “practically every’ member of the A. A. U. track and field selection committee “felt that Charles Paddock head repeatedly capitalized his athletic fame and had therefore forfeited his amateur standing.” The American Olympic committee, he said, “ex- pressed the same opinion, only more emphatically.” Subsequently Paddock was given an O.

Cubs Win Opener, 9-5; Dodgers Take 2d, 5-4 Brooklyn, Aug. 15 (A.P.).—The Cubs began their final invasion of Greater New York for 1929 by gaining an ‘even break with the Robins at Ebbets Field today, winning the first game by 9 to 5 and losing the sec- ond by & to 4. The Pirates lost to Boston and the Cubs thus gained half a game on the day to lead by 8% contests. Guy Bush was hit hard in the open- er, but the Brooklyn pitchers were rapped even harder, and the Chi- cago ace had comparatively little difficulty in winning his seventeenth victory of the season. Dazzy Vance was tight in the pinches of the night- cap. The first game ended in a barage of pop bottles aimed at Umpire Mc- Laughlin in the last half of the ninth after Rube Bressler ‘had been called out for being hit by a batted ball.

Judge — Reformers In Ruling for Dog Track HICAGO, Aug. 15 (A.P.) -—Circuit Judge Harry M. Fisher today re- moved the ban placed on dog racing in the vicinity of Chicago by reinstating a temporary injunction in favor of track gory = recently va- cated by Judge Fred h. The court declared that self-ap- pointed reformers who sought to co- erce law enforcement officers and the courts constituted a greater menace than all the gambling in- dulged im by the citizens of the en- tire Nation. At the same time he rebuked States 679 | Attorney John .A. Swanson and Sheriff John E. Traeger for raiding the Haw- thorne track while it was protected from police molestation by a court injunction. Judge Fisher continued until Sep- tember a motion to make the injunc- tion permanent, leaving the tracks free to operate without restraint until that time. “I appreciate the position that the States’s attorney and sheriff find themselves in,” the court said. “Pres- being brought to bear upon reformers, who so far: cal zeal to impose their own and ‘righteous’ wills upon a sinful mul- titude, they would have these officers of the law violate the injunction of the court. These public officials must content themselves, however, with the knowledge that the respon- sibility for interpret'r~ the law rests upon the courts alone, and that it is infinitely more important to &o- ciety that the court’s mandates be obeyed than that some form of wager- ing, the legality of which has been brought in question, should be im- mediately su “If public officials, elected for the purpose of upholdi the law, however well meaning may be, were to d t the mah- dates of the court, and violate its injunctions, what could be expected of a labor group, for. instance —_ is restrained by a similar action of court, from pursuing a A* course? Such precedents would re- sult in nothing short of anarchy.” A motion to cite the sheriff and State’s attorney for contempt, now pending before the court, will be de- cided next with the mo- tion to make the temporary, injunc- | rie tion permanent,’ |American League, | turned the situation to their own ad- | vantage again by taking the second . game of the series from the Chicago | White Sox, by the satisfyingly ample | CpOHOWHNmNWoCSCO , Judge, Re the dignity of | base they Nats Hammer Faber for 9-4 Win Marberry Retires at End of Sixth After Shutout Feat.

In winning, the Nats made a bit ol progress toward their present goal— the taking of fifth place in the stand- ings from the Detroit Tigers, and if the White Sox keep to the form which they have displayed since returning home from their last road jaunt, the Nats should be within striking dis- tance of this position ere they leave Greater Comiskey Park on ,Saturday night. But while they are winning ail games here, the Washington club is losing what was formerly one of its most valuable assets—the team of Altrock and Schacht. Art Can Not Improve Upon Nature. So inured have the Mardy White Sox fans become to the antics of their own team on the field, that the studied burlesque of the two Wash- ington harlequins nowadays fail to amuse the situation, furnishing prac- tical proof of the adage that art can not improve upon nature. In today’s contest for instance, al- though the White Sox could be charged legally with only a single error—Clancy’s throw in the third base stands that allowed West to score, there were other amusing inci- dents that almost came within the pale. Typical were the allowing of a pop fly, by Hayes in the fourth inning, to drop back of second base while three Comiskey employes went into con- ference in the immediate vicinity und Clancy’s coming in with great specd to field Rice’s bunt in the fifth inning only to find that there was no one at first for him to throw the ball to. Four pitchers saw actual duty on the mound in the course of the pro- ceedings. Fred Mafberry started for Washington, but in deference to his recent illness and the 6-0 lead which his teammates gave him early in the contest he was relieved after the seventh inning by the left-handed Garland Braxton. Nats Take Lead With Three in Fourth. Old Red Faber started for the White Sox, but he was taken out for @ pinch hitter in the seventh and sadly reflected upon the lack of glory in pitching for a seventh place team as Grady Adkins finished the assign- Washington took the lead without a great deal of preliminary maneuv- ering when four hits and Clancy's overthrow of third base resulted in three runs in the fourth inning. Three more came across on three hits n the seventh inning, one of them Goose Goslin'’s thirteenth homer of the year, three more hits yielded two runs in the eighth, and a pair of safeties accounted for the final run In the ninth. The White Sox got a run off two hits in the fifth and staged a be- lated three-hit rally in the ninth that gave them three tallies. In justice to the White Sox it must be said that the banishment of Bill Cissell, after a first-inning altercg- tion with Umpire Hildebrand, forced a drastic realignment of the infield, Clancy going to first from the bench, Shires moving over to make a stiff- kneed second baseman, and Kerr go- ing from second to shortstop. Tate’s Triple Opens Three-Run Rally. The Nats’ first score came after Tate had tripled wit hone down in the fourth inning.

(Associated Press Sports Writer.) BBETS FIELD, Brooklyn, Aug. 15 (A.P.).—Another smashing giant from the Argentine, fully as threatening to American heavy- weight supremacy as the Luis Angel Firpo of six years ago, battered hig way into the heavyweight picture to- night over the punch shattered form of gallant Tom Heeney. Surprisingly clever for all his 223 pounds of bone and muscle, Vic- torio Campolo, the new galloping gaucho of the pampas country, spread the Hard Rock from New Zealand on the ring of the big Nae tional League Ball Park as only Gene Tunney, in his valedictory as heavy- weight champion, was able to do be- fore him. Campolo was awarded the fight on a technical knockout in the ninth round of a ten-round match as Heeney, torn by body punches and reeling under pen- derous right hand smashes to the jaw, staggered helplessly into the arms of ‘Tom Crowley, the referees, The round lasted 2 minutes and 4 seconds. ii} Heeney Floored Twice in ° Vicious Battling. It was a vicious slugging battle from the opening gong, the kind "of a Donnybrook free-for-all heavy- weight fans have sought in vain at major ringsides since Jack Dempsey lost his title. In the nine rounds Heeney was on the floor twice, once for no count in the eighth and final ly in the ninth just before the épd came. To the 18,000 fans gathered in the National League Ball Park, these were the only moments when the fight was not jammed with thrilling action, Far from a punch-soggy wreck after the terrific battering Gene Tuntie meted out in his final defense © the heavyweight title, Heeney fought an aggressive, punishing battle that nheld the South American giant even for the. first seven rounds. the thudding right-hand punches Campolo buried into Tom’s body from the opening gong took their toll. Once his strength was sapped. Heeney weakened fast, soon became a mark for Campolo’s right crosses to the chin and held up through the eighth and what®there was of the ninth rounds on courage alone. 88-inch Reach Greatest In Ring History. Campolo, 6 feet_7 inches tall, and possessed of probably the longest in ring history, 88 inches, reached down from his great height and welcomed the constantly charg- ing New Zealander with chugging rights to the body, rights to the head and now and then left hooks that were equally damaging. When necessary, the Argentine was able to stand Tom off with his long left hand, jabbing tantalizingly to the face, while he awaited, and always found a spot to land that zoomtiy right. Heeney’ tested the South American giant in the early rounds for every- thing that a fighting man have. He found that tonight, at least, Campolo possessed everything necessary. Tom bulled Campolo around the ring in the first round, easily hooking lefts to the Argentine’s face but gl- ways taking right-hand smashes: the body that soon had the New Zealander’s left side livid. In the third and fourth sessions, Heeney forced Campolo to break ground stand up under steady punis with a steady dogged attack that hammered down the Argentiné’s guard and brought a ‘studious look to his wide, swarthy face. Heeney Shoots Bolt In Fifth Round. Tom shot his bolt in the. fifth, weakening under that terrific body bombardment, but a final despairing rally gave him.an edge in the seventh session, when Campolo, caught on the ropes, was forced to fight his out of trouble.

It was the big- gest upsets of the day. Brown Wis- dom, from the Reichert Brothers Stable was second and Mar- tinique from D. E. Stewart's Stable, was third. Clyde Van Dusen Was eased up when beaten.

DOCTOR FRED, which stopped as if a trifle short, last time is excep- tionally well placed and will, I be- lieve, bring home the bacon in the sixth. This is a pretty fair sort of hide. COTLOGOMOR. which has been laid up was out airing last time, while POLYGAMIA and PRINCE BULBO are closely bunched. I like DOCTOR FRED extra well. The closing spasm brings out a fine lot of hash hounds. BLIND HILLS, which is at the top of his best form would be better served in the event the going turns muddy. DUCK IT is in well as also FRANCES ROCK and GREAT SPORT. THEO RED, GOTHAM and RITTER are doubtful starters, Down at Saratoga the good word from “Walter” is CAMP BOSS to bring home all the bacon. Lamp his comments, the track is a sea of mud and CAMP BOSS is a stand-out. Lis- tens like winnjng gab to me, In the cross-country race the suicide riders favor THORNDALE, which is extra good at present. He seemed to tire last time—just as he had the race all but won.

hile the iio, +I, r ON POST: FRIDAY. AUGUST. 16. “ROCKVILLE IN COUNTY Ex-Mackman To Play on Town Nine Slugging Outfielder Given 4th Place in Batting Order. 6M ontgomery Teams Submit Lists of E —— OCEKVILLE’s most famous citi- zen three - years when he was with the Philadel- hia Athletics will play with the Rockville Team in the approaching Montgomery County championship geries, according to the eligibility lst submitted last night by Manager R. Cole, and which includes the name of Outfielder Bill Lamar. His affiliation with the Rockville Team, a typical sandlot aggregation, does not mark the complete retrogres- sion of Lamar as a baseball player, despite the fact that he fell from grace with Manacer Connie Mack, of the Athletics, and Owner Clark Grif- fith, of the Nats, with whom he also played two years ago. ' Lamar’s most recent baseball con- nection was with the Little Rock Team of the Southern Association, by which he was given his uncondi- tional release last week. It was then that he consented to play with his home team after the urgent pleas of the Rockville manager to aid the town team to uphold the honor and preserve the glory of Rockville in the county series. Gained Reputation as Indifferent Player. Lamar as a big leaguer failed to jus- tify the opinion of critics that he would become an outstanding star. Although 30 years old when he joined the Athletics, he made good immediately with his terrific hitting and fine defensive play, but he soon gained the reputation of being an in- different ball player despite his natu- ral.ability, and Manager Mack shunt- ed him-to Washington at the waiver price after one year. With Washington, Lamar played in only a few games before becoming entangled with Owner Griffith over the salary question, and he was re- leased to the Newark Club. managed by Walter Johnson last season. With Newark he was expected to star, but there he also failed to persevere and was given his unconditional release, Manager Cole, of Rockville, has _ paid tribute to Lamar’s batting prow- ess with the announcement that the former big leaguer would occupy fourth place in the batting order, In the lst of eligibles submitted by the Montgomery series teams last night are several outstanding stars of this section.

U. secretary~- treasurer, added to Brundage’s state- ment a refutation of Paddock’s charge that he was cheated out of a place in the semifinal round of the 100- meter dash at the Olympic tryouts. Paddock had pointed out that the announcer proclaimed him as winner of second place, and the judges then went into a huddle and changed this. According to Ferris, Paddock’s name was announced instead of that of Jackson Sholz through an error by the announcer and this was corrected at once. Paddock’s charges that the heats of the trials were “seeded” so as to try to eliminate him and that the time announced.for him in his heat was not correct also came in for refuta- tion, as did the statement of the one-time “fastest human” that the American Olympic committee gave him a clean bill of health when he put the to that te in the sectional tryouts met with denial. | ALEXANDRIA SPoRTS | |=" Alexandria, Va., Aug. .15—Rube Hayman, former gridiron star of the University of Virginia, has been a ted playing football coach of St. Ma Celtics Football Team for the 1 season.

LEZIA BAXWELL was a young and beautiful girl who lived in Gibraltar, almost in the shadow of the famous rock of that name. She was an only child of her father, and was generally beloved. One day she disappeared ae * was reported that ane “had been killed. * James — her father, was very much disturbed, but declared that he did not have the slightest Knowledge of what had become of her. —*. from his home was a cave, which Was popularly su d to be haunted. Some of the neces in the neighborhood insisted that —* had heard strange noises com- | from the mouth of the cave. detective was sent to investigate, and he found a pile of stones in one corner of the cave. Removing them, he was shocked to see a dress covered with blood, It was easily identified as oe | belonged to the missing girl. lads it proved to be the garment she had worn on the last day she was geen in Gibraltar. William Katt, a young man who had been a guitor for the hand of the girl, said that he could testify to that fact. The au- thorities continued their search and they next found a mass of beautiful hair covered with blood” which also gay ogy hee 3 girl. e ad been suspected from the beginning and now he was placed under arrest. The trial was a dramatic one and the chief witness against the father was the young inan who had wanted to marry Elezia Baxwell. He said he had gone to the father and asked his permission to wed the girl, but had been bitterly repulsed for no apparent reason. He said that James Baxwell had not only abused him in unmeasured terms, but had threatened him with vio- lence. Katt replied that he would marry the girl in spite of the father’s objection, whereupon Baxwell de- clared that he would kill her with his own hands before he would con- sent to her marriage with Katt, The father protested his innocence, but in apite of that he was convicted and condemned to death. He —* utterly prostrated by this Pom soy egg verdict and seemed to a gradual decline. He made a state- ment in which he admitted having used the threatening words against the girl, but said that it was simply an outburst of temper and that he had ho thought of doing harm to his child, An immense crowd assembled on the day the unfortunate father was led to the scaffold. He had regained his composure and made a pathetic address to the people, in which ae begged them not to think 111 of him. As he concluded he noticed William Katt standing in the crowd and he addressed his concluding remarks to him. “My friend,” he said in a quivering voice, “I am sorry I have unwittingly done you harm. I meant well, but 1 was.probably in the wrong. I wish to die at peace with all men. I freely pardon you all the harm your evi- dence has done me and I ask that you take my hand in token of forgiveness.” This was dramatic in the highest degree and the crowd thrilled with ex- pectancy. Would the young man for- give? Would he take the hand of the man who was about to die? William Katt turned pale. He staggered toward the scaffold. He turned to the execu- tioner. “For God's sake halt this business. This man is guiltless of any crime. I: is I alone who am guilty.” The utmost confusion prevailed and when quiet had. been restored Katt explained himself, He gaid he had run away with the girl and married her revenged he had planted the evidence against the father. He it was who had made the noises that came from the cave. Did the victim of this plot forgive him? It was too late, because when they removed the black cap James Baxwell was dead—dead from weak- ness and the awful shock of the unex- pected revelation. (Copyright. 1929.)

Terms of arbitration of the dispute in the Lancashire cotton industry were agreed ypon tonight at @ con- ————— begun ¢arly this afternoon betwee tatives of the ém- poe and Operatives with Sir Horace leon, permanent secretary of the ministry of labor, in the role of con- iliator. Pull ii of ion was * individual mills to Teopen for work on Monday. While the wage dispute which brought about the great «é two wéeks ago last Monday still remains to be séttied, it appeared tonight that work at the old standard of wages would be resumed on Monday. The dispute arose when the manu- facturers declared a wage reduction ofsabout 12% per cent was necessary for thém to meet foreign competition, especially in Asia. As the result of the pérsonal in- tervention of Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald and the Labor ministry, the @mployers recently agreed on the principle of arbitration, to which P on methed of application could be reached with the workers. That was the purpose of the conference today, the first joint meeting since the mills closed. It was expected that the majority of the mills would take advantage of the agreement to resume work on Monday at the old wage scale pend- ing the arbitration award. At least a week was believed neces- sary to hear all the evidence in the dispute and prepared an award, and it was recognized that it might take much longer. BAND CONCERTS.

Man Stabs Self In Weighing Meat Ivan Feldman in Serious Condition; Was Waiting on Himself. Ivan Feldman, 48 years old, a gro- cer, of 2711 Woodley place northwest, was in a critical condition at Emer- gency Hospital yesterday as the result of stabbing hinself accidentally with a 10-inch butcher knife. Feldman, who conducts a store at 500 Irving street northwest, went to the market of Witt & Mirman, 211 Seventh street northwest, to purchase some meat. The market attendants were busy, so the grocer waited on himself. The grocer, it was said, was about to weigh a piece of veal he had cut and was holding the knife. The meat began to slip from his grasp and, in an effort to hold the meat, Feldman grabbed with the hand in which he held the knife. He stabbed himself in the lower part of the gbdomen.

Chicago, Aug. 15 (A.P.).—"“Big Joe” Saltis, of the South Side beer district, emerged from a 30-days sentence in the Kane County Jail today carrying striking outward evidence of having abandoned brewing for philosophy. Under his arm he carried well- thumbed volumes of Nietsche’s “Thus Spake Zarathustra” Dietzgen's “Posi- tive Outcome of Philosophy” and Hurd’s “Revised Statutes of the United States.” Saltis had gone to the jail for his second term within a year for transa- porting beer from Pennsylvania to Chicago.

BACKED BY MERCHANTS Special to The Washington Post. Annapolis, Md., Aug. 15.—That An- napolis will get a market house with- in the next year appears fairly cer- tain, in the opinion of City Alder- man Arthur T. Elliott, who is push- ing the movement for such a struc- ture. Plans and specifications are being drafted, and Alderman Elliott believes the city council will see its way clear to give the city a first-class market house which would permit the abolition of the existing fish market and a considerable beautifi- cation of the public market. area. Alderman Elliott has been consult- ing many merchants and has en- countered a number who are willing to take stalls if the proposed market is constructed along modern and sanitary plans. This would include closed store-like stalls for each ven- dor. Two plans are in mind. The alter- ation of the present building or con- struction of an entirely new one. The roof of the present market tis leaky and must be repaired, in addi- tion to which a new under surface is required. Building experts say the concrete section of the market is all that is worth gaving. ; The entire city council is suffic- lently interested in the project to favor draftsmen submitting plans. The design selected, if the project is undertaken will be paid 4 per cent of the contract price, such price hav- ing been recommended by Counselor George B. Woelfel.

SEWER FUND IS ASKED THE WASHINGTON POST BUREAU, 312 S.. Washington St.. Alexandria, Va. Phone Alexandria 523. A resolution was introduced in city counct! yesterday to the effect that buildings now erected which en- croach on streets beyond the estab- lished building lines may, with the consent of the city manager or his represetitative, remain undisturbed until demolished, and that new buildings erected on the same loca- tions after old buildings are demol- ished shall conform to the estab- lished building lines. The reason for this resolution’ appears to be that in former years the metes and bounds of building lots were not so carefully described as is now done; that in placing trusts upon buildings it Is sometimes found that the buildings beyond the established lines, and that the insurance. companies ahd others making loans on the prop- erty require assurance that suit may not be entered to compel the moving of structures back to the line. City Manager Lawrence was in- structed to confer with the city at- torney and, if it is found that the city Will*not~ be involved, he will be given authority to certify building lines as they now exist. A resolution to appropriate $1,800 for the construction of a sewer on Masonic avenue, from Russell road to Junior street, was held over. Action was also deferred on a resolution to appropriate $344 to cover 50 per cent of the cost of concrete work on & sewer on the property of the Central Automobile Co., which was destroyed in a recent rainstorm, The resolu- tian provides that the appropriation shall be contingent on the granting on the Wash ; The financial statement of the city for the month of July was presented by City Manager Lawrence and ac- cepted by the council. A ition was received from the residents of Dick street, requesting that the name of the street from Mount Vernon avenue Washington avenue be changed to Oak street, this being divided by the railroad tracks and it being desired to use one name for the entire length, The petition also asxed that the street be surfaced and, on the recommendation of the city Manager, action was withheld utntil the residents present a petition for curb and gutter.

Luray N ewspaper Quits Anti-Smiths Would Oppose New Yorker Again, It States; To Aid Pollard. Special to The Washington Post. Luray, Va.; Aug. 15—Another for- mer ally of the anti-Smiths of Vir- ginia deserted them this week with the editorial announcement in Tues- day’s issue of the twice-a-week Page News and Courier, publisheq in Lu- ray, that it would support John Gar- land Pollard, Democratic nominee for governor in the fall election. The newspaper, edited and owned by W. Carl Lauck, who was postmaster un- der Woodrow Wilson at Luray and later was chairman of the party in Page County, says it would oppose Gov. Smith, the nominee, under circum- stances similar to last fall, but that it believes the State Democratic par- ty is wise, progressive and safe. The editor doesn’t believe that C. Bascom Slemp and Henry W. Anderson offer any better opportunity for the ad- vancement and happiness of Virginia than can be secured elsewhere and believes the Democratic party has a score of trained public servants where the opposition has one. The editorial ends with the ad- vice to the party to leave Bishop Cannon alone as an issue as he is the “most dangerous political adver- sary in Virginia, largely because he never loses his temper.” Back Creek Fruit Heavily Hit by Hail $50,000 Damage Is Done to Orchards West of Martinsburg.
