REFORM IS HELD NEEDED A ‘bill to. ‘Mberalize and standardize in. the Govern- 1 | ment at ) will he enacted rinto law at the next session of Con- gressigBuch a measure willbe drafted’ by an Interdepartmental committee mate up .of representatives of the various départmeénte and bureaus and headed by Maj. Alfred E. Erk, of the chief coordinator’s office. . The committee has been studying the leave problem for'several months and has found that there is much room for reform. In its deliberations it has consulted Luther C, Steward, presi- dent of the Federation of Federal Em- ployes, which organization initiated the. movement for a uniform leave law. It 1s popularly believed that al! Government: workers get 30 days an- nual leave and 15 days sick leave. This is not so. Some employes get less than 15 days annual leave, and there are some—workers in the Bu- reau of Engraving and Printing; for example—who get no sick leave at all. As a matter of fact, the granting of annual leave to employes is entirely in the hands of the division chief, who may or may not let them go. The Federation of Federal Employes would have the law so written that the employes would be definitely as- sured of so many days leave. The fe tion also is‘in favor of plan of cumulative sick leave. There are thousands of employes who fail to use up 15 days sick leave in a year, Yet if one of those employes has to undergo an operation and is absent for 90 days, say, he is “docked” once his fifteen days sick leave and 30 days annual leave is exhausted. _ ‘The federation is in favor of a plan under which unused sick leave could be ————— up to 120 daya, thus guarding the employe against loss of pay if pe. should be stricken with a serious il ‘ ‘So far the in ental com- mittee that is studying the leave problem * not made public its con- clusions, if, indeed, it has reached any.

OBLIGATION Lawyer-Author Shows Pol- icy in Central America in Talk at Institute. DEBATE NEW WATERWAY University, Va.. Aug. 16 (A-P.) — Hugh Gordon Miller, New York law- yer, and author, upheld intervention’ in Central America as” the *moral obligation” of the unitéd statée in freeing the Panama Oamal ot war, in a speech on “The Monrde Dos- trine” at the Institute of Public Af- fairs tonight. Great Britain and the United States have like duties to keep. unimpaired two great avenues of commerce, the Suez and Panama Canals, he said, urging closer union of thé two Eng- lish-speaking nations in ‘fulfilling these obligations. The speaker made one criticism in connection with intervention. “Prest- dent Coolidge,” he said, “was over- cautious in withdrawing Marines from Nicaragua,” Prof. William E. Dodd, of the Uni- versity of Chicago, “is blind to the facts of recent history,” Mr, Miller declared, answering Dr. Dodd’s charge earlier in the institute that “a gospel for the weak has become a cover for the exploitation of Cuba, of Nicaragua and San Domingo. Sinée American intervention, order and progress have emerged from chaos,” said Mr. Miller. As to imperialismp he declared, Woodrow Wilson's statement that this Nation “would never take another foot of territory by conquest” was “a complete answer in the future * the charge.” If the great powers welcome the United States as fellow policemen in China, he said, “and even complain that this country does not go further than she is willing to go in her Far Eastern intervention, there is. no rea- son why they should criticize the United States for acting on precisely the same principle in a region where she has acquired a definite franchise after long years of negotiations—a franchise which, unless fulfilled’ in good faith; will be subject ultimately to a movement tending toward for- feiture.” Danna G.

HE LEAVES WAY OPEN TO AVERT SREAKOOWN French, italian, Belgian and Japanese Delegates Will Reply Today. The Hague, Aug. 16 (N.Y.W.NS.).— Philip Snowden; British chancellor of the exchequer, today turned down a compromise offer made by the French, Belgian, Italian and Japanese dele- gations under which Great Britain would receive aBout three-fourths of the increase demanded by him in the British share of German reparation under the Young plan. In doing so he again asked, as he has been doing for the last ten days, that the apportionment of the Young plan annuities among Germany's creditors be altered to bring Great Britain’s share into accordance with the Spa percentages. He firmly re- fused to consider any other settle- ment. Snowden’s refusal of the offered compromise has not yet been put in writing.

Premier Jaspar asked Snowden to embody his rejection of the offer in French, Belgian, Italian and Japa- nese delegations.

In coOnsequeence; the meeting of the finance commidsion slated for tomorrow morning has been post- poned to be subject to the call of its chairman, Baron Houtart, of Belgium. The political commission's scheduled meetings have been similarly’ post- poned for several days, As a result of the deadlock in the conference, emphasized by Snowden’s stand today, Premier Aristide Briand called on Gustay Stresemann, Geét- many’s foreign minister, this after- noon and informed him that he is in no position ot announce the date on which France will agree to Rhineland eva The French premier had been expected to make this announce- ment at tomorrow’s meeting of the political commission, which has now been put off until Monday.

Both Russia’ and China Accused of Invading Other’s Land. NANKING IS EXPECTED TO APPEAL TO U. S. Self-Defense Claim Puts Signatory Powers in Quandary. TREATY’S WEAKNESS SHOWN, BELIEF HERE ‘Officials Are Still Hopeful Only Border Clashes Will Eventuate. By ALBERT W. FOX. The prestige of the Kellogg pact as a preventive of war took a sharp tumble yesterday asa result of re- ports from Nanking and Moscow that the pact is not being observed by either Russia or China in the present crisis. Both nations are charged with having invaded the other’s territory, thereby committing acts of war in defiance of the pact and conducive to outbreaks of seri- ous hostilities. Formal protest by the Nationalist government of China against Russian invasion of Chinese territory is ex- pected. at the State Department as a result of unofficial] reports via Reuter from Nanking. Officials here ex- pressed surprise over the. reported extent of a Russian offensive along the Manchurian border and were hopeful last night that widespread invasion will mot be undertaken. It has been understood here for weeks king has been aware of this fact, Pact’s Weakness Shown. - Pending study of the. anticipated to signatories of the Kellogg pact officials here were inclined t} believe that China must rely upon her own troops to pro- tect her territory against invasion. It is conceded that no reliance can be placed on'the pact if one of tne disputing nations chooses to disre- gard it and it is furthermore ad- mitted that it would be suicidal for a nation to refrain from taking the necessary steps in its own defense. The weakness in the pact is being demonstrated in advance of serious hostilities, according to the consen- sus here. Neither Russia nor China violates the pact by waging a defen- sive war against an aggressor nation Russia, therefore, has paved the way for defensive operations in case of ne- cessity, it ig explained. in Moscow China also has prepared a campaign of defense against aggression. If war breaks out voth nations will claim to be fighting & defensive war against the other and the Kellogg pact sim- ply does not apply to either. When- ever a nation engages in war it claims to be fighting to defend itself from aggression and if hostilities unfoi- tunately break out in Manchuria the game old story will be rehearsed un- der new surroundings. Still Hope for Peace. There is, however, continued hope here that border clashes will not lead to serious warlike operations. Neither China nor Russia desire to become involved in war. Both nations are anxious to remain at peace and have demonstrated this since the contro- versy became acute.

The Senate finance committee Re- publicans yesterday completed re. writing of the House tariff bill's rate 4 sections by approving a reduction $6 2.20 cents a pound in the House levy of 2.40 cents on Cuban raw sugar. The’2.20 cent rate, adopted by & vote of 7 to 4, represents an increase a of forty-four-hundredths of a cent over the existing duty of 1.76 cents against Cuban sugar, but a decrease of twenty-hundredths of a cent fro that proposed by the House. * A proposal to restriet the duty-free importation of sugar from the Philip. © Ee pines was rejected.

Cuba is allowed a 20 per cént reduction fi. duty by treaty, so the finance group's Cuban duty, if finally enacted, would be the same as the present world rate on raw sugar. After approving some increases and one reduction tn other items of the House sugar schedule, the Republican. committeemen rejected a dozen ef. more of amendments which senat had announced an intention to 6g on the floor, including the Norris @x+ port debenture proposal and the Glass stock sale tax amendment. Strenuous efforts; however, are ex- pected to be made on the floor for both the debenture and stock tax pro- posals, the former being designed te make the tariff effective on surplus agricultural commodities and the latter being aimed at stock gambling.

(Associated Press.) Secretary Stimson entered the tariff controversy for the second time yesterday with a statement that the communications on the subject re- ceived fram 29 foreign countries and colonial possessions of the British Empire were not protests, but mere “statistical statements” presented for the “information and consideration of this Government.” Issued through the office of Sena- to be mae | Fig- | tor Metcalf (Republican), Rhode Island, as a summary of the State Department's attitude toward the 'foreign tariff communications, the | statement said these documents had ibeen ‘popularly but incorrectly called ‘protests.’ ”’ “They are in fact for the most | part.” the Secretary said, “statistical | statements with regard to the trade between the United States and the |country in question and usually touch upon certain specific commodities which are of importance in that trade.” The communications, he continued, were nothing new in American tariff history.

HUGE STOCK SALES TOLD New York, Aug. 16 (N.Y.W.N.8.).— The powerful searchlight of the Fed- eral authorities, which has been used so effectively during the last few days in exposing alleged bucket shops, tipster sheets and sellers of fake stocks, focused today on the Airvia Corporation, of this city. This is the company of which Lewis A. Yancey and Roger A. Williams, of Rome flight fame, were officers, being vice president and president, respec- tively, before their memorial flight to the continent. When the dust of postal inspectors, who were acting under orders from Assistant United States Attorney George J. Mintzer, had cleared away. four company offices had been visited and every one found therein sub- penaed to appear at the Federal Building for questioning. These included the Airvia Corpora- tion, Hadley & Co,, the Howland Co., and the Coastal Airways, Inc. Former Convict Is Head, Claim. It is claimed by Mintzer that the operating head of both Airvia and the Hadley Co. is Arthur Howard Montgomery, said to have served five years in Atlanta for using the mails to defraud. A warrant for his arrest, S$ well as for the arrest of Geraid Tiffany, Montgomery's alleged partner, will be forthcoming tomorrow, Mint- zver announced, From the books and records seized in the raids, Mintzer said that he had discovered the Hadley Co. had sola 35,000 shares of Airvia, class “A” stock, for between $8 and $12 a share, under false pretenses. These pretenses, Mintzer contifued, were included in literature put out by the Howland concern and claimed exor- bitant assets and volume of business. He also said it was to be distinctly understood that Williams and Yancey were in no way cagnnected with the scheme, having resigned shortly after returning to this coun- try. At the same time they took of- fice, it is charged, Williams stipulated that no stock in the company was to be sold for three years. Owner of Stock Mysterious. After questioning several. officers of the Airvia Corporation, Mintzér said that of 200,000 shares of class ‘‘A” stock, 80,000 was owned by a myste- rious “John J. Bromiley,” who. also owned all the class “B” stock arrounting to 100,000 shares. None of the officers of the com- pany, including Capt. James A. Stader, president, who has been with the company only two weeks, know who Bromley was. This state of affairs, Mintzer pointed out, is strange in view of the fact that only stock belonging to Bromiley was sold by Hadley & Co. According to the secretary of the company, Charles B. Ramsgate, $8,000 has been taken in by the compeny for transportatoin since it has been operating, approximately three weeks. It has two planes, seating twelve per- sons each, which make daily trips to Boston and return. The 35,000 shares of stock sold at $8 to $12 a share amount to $3650,- 000, Mintzer pointed out, against which is the comparatively small sum of 88,000. The literature about the Airvia Corporation, as read by Mint- zer, claims a total annual revenue of $2,430,000 is possible if the planes are operated to full capacity. ams- gate said this figure “was ridiculous.” Girl, Clad in Bath Costume, Is Bride Miss Von Herrlich, of Kan- sas City, Is Wed to Turk Near Riviera Strand. aPris, Aug. 16 (N.Y.W.N.8.).—Eye- witnesses thought a scene in some film extravaganza was being enacted yesterda yat Antibes on the Riviera when the local city hall was invaded by a dripping wet band of men and women, clad only in bathing suits. Straight from their morning dip In the sea they had come. When a youthful couple at their head an- nounced to the solemn officials that they wanted to be married then and there supefaction was complete. The mayor was in his office. A magn of the world, he took the situation calmly. When he had verified the couple’s papers and satisfied himself that all formalities had beer, respect- ed, he decided that there was nothing ii the code to warrant a refusal to marry the couple standing tefore him in their bathing suits. So this was how, according to I'Intransigeant, an American _ girl from Kansas City, Hilda Von Herrlich, became the bride of a subject of mod- ern Turkey, .Maurice Chalom. The happy couple returned with their wedding guests to spend the first hour of their honeymoon in the sea. (Copyright, 1929.) Mystery Airplane Is Still Untested Lieut.

TAM O’SHANTER F Minneapolis, Aug. 16 (AP.)—An Ovér-abundance of clues pouted in| on police, who scrambled through a maze of leads tonight in an almost. frantic manhunt for the slayer of 12-year-old Dorothy Aune, but none of them apparently hed brought de- tectives much nearer solution of the crime. Six of 21 mén taken into custody for questioning as to their move- ments last Tuesday, the day the little } victim was kidnapéd, attacked and then strangled to death, were still held in jail without charge tonight although officers admitted their ques- tioning developed little important in- formation. Tentacles of the case stretched out- side the city today for the first time as a dock worker in Duluth confessed the slaying and then immediately repudiated his story, and an auto- mobile was found at Hopkins, ten miles west of here, containing a gunnysack, some heavy twine, a wig and a torn piece of blue cloth. Confession Disregarded. Both Minneapolis and Duluth police disregarded the dock worker's confession as the man epparently was irresponsible, but local officers planned to question the owner of the car located at Hopkins. He was picked up there Thursday night on a charge of driving while drunk and | is held in the city jail. When the child-victim’s body was found Wednesday morning in a dark spot in South Minneapolis, her hands and feet were bound with héavy twine and she was wrapped in two blood-stained gunnyeacks. Of the six mén still held in jail to- night three are brothers, who operate a shoe store near the Aune home. One was questioned all night by de- tectives, but held consistently to his gtory that he knew nothing of the crime. Two other clues, which authorities hoped might develop some trail to the killer, was the finding of the little girl’s,tam o’shanter in the street a short distance from her home, and the story of two women that they ‘heard 6creams coming from a vacant lot nearby the night of the child’s kidnaping. , Shows Route, Belief. Officers believed the finding of the hat showed the route taken by the girl's slayer after the kidnaping, while the story of the cries connected perfectly with their theory that Dor- othy had been held prisoner in some hiding place Tuesday night before her strangled body was tossed from 2 automobile early Wednesday morn- ng. While police pressed their search for. the slayer, the grief-stricken parents of Dorothy made prepara- tions for her funeral tomorrow, with indications that one of the largest crowds in recent history would at- tend the servicés. Members of Dor- othy’s Sunday school class will be pallbearers. c Hearing on Ships’ Burning Is Begun Cancellation of Permit to Halt Their Destruction Is Asked. The office of the District engineer oc the United States Army yesterday began a hearing upon the petition of Walter R. Wilson requesting that the Western Marine Salvage Co.’s permit for burning 200 war-time ves- s¢ls in Mallows Bay be canceled. In his petition to the Secretary of War, Wilson set forth that the de- stroying of the ships in the bay was causing damage to his _ property which lies adjacent to the area and that the submerged hulls of. the burned. ships were obstructing the free navigation of the bay. Both the salvage company and the defendant were represented at the hearing. The District engineer’s of- fice reserved decision at the request of the defendant’s counsel until such a time as it can submit expert opin- ion as to the damage being done to its client’s property. The salvage company has @lready destroyed 150 of the 200 ships in the bay, which is shout 5 miles below Quantico on the Maryland side of the Potomac River The remaining 50 ships are expected to be burned within a year if the per- }mit ismot suspended.

NORRIS ABSENT Fort Worth, Tex., Aug. 16 (A.P.).— Fire today again swept through prop- erties of the First Baptist Church here of which Dr. J. Frank Norris, noted fundamentalist, is pastor, de- stroying its educational building. The blaze was caused by a spark from an acetylene torch with which workmen were cutting away steel girders from the ruins of the church’s auditorium destroyed by fire last Jan- uary. Several times before firemen have been called to extinguish flames in the building from the same cause. Seven companies of firemen battled for more than an hour to keep the fire from spreading. A filling sta- tion nearby added to the danger. Employes of a nearby four-story dullding were forced to flee when smoke poured into their offices. . In 1912, the First Baptist Church was destroyed by fire. Dr. Norris wus indicted and tried on charges of arson in connection with the blaze, but, after a bitter court trial, he was acquitted. The structure: was rebuilt, but was razed again by flames the first of this year, while Dr. Norris was visit- ing in Austin, Tex. After the embers had. cooled, city investigators said they found several cans believed to have contained gasoline. The origin of the fire, however, never was de- cided. The educational building was damaged by the January blaze. The church’s pastor repeatedly has charged that threats have been made against his life and the property of his church as a result of vigorous campaigns he has conducted against so-called vice and criminal elements in Texas. Dr. Norris was before the public eye two years ago after he shot and killed D. E. Chipps, wealthy Fort Worth lumberman, in his study at the church building. His trial was trans- ferred to Austin on a change of venue, and after sensational testimony was introduced, he was acquitted. The pastor claimed Chipps had threatened his life. No, estimate. of today’s loss had been made. Dr. Norris is in Wiscon- sin with his family on a vacation. Jeweler Is Tortured; $20,000 Gems Taken Baltimore, Aug. 16 (A.P.).—Jewels worth $20,000 were stolen from the office safe of Raymond Hughes, dia- mond merchant, while he and his wife were held prisoners in their home, Hughes reported to police today. He said two young men bound him and Mrs. Hughes to beds and held lighted matches near his face until he revealed the safe combination. Then one stood guard while the other went to the office in a down- town building. When. Hughes tele- phoned to police they found the sate open and empty. Hughes recognized his captors as men who came to the office last week to have a diamond appraised. ——— | }Hoover to Vary His Usual = Week-End by Trip ' to Madison. }|GALA DAY IS SCHEDULED (Associated Press.)

Philadelphia, Aug. 16 (AP.).— Samuel Bagun, 35, interior decorator of Cleveland, Ohio, today pleaded guilty to bigamy charges after hear- ing three of his four wives list his marital ventures in police court. Sentence was deferred pending trial on another indictment charging him with larceny of a diamond ring from his latest mother-in-law. Bagun, also known as Burg and Berger, was arrested yesterday in New York as he was about to take his fifth wife, police said. Because of the larceny charge he was extradited to this city. * Bagun smiled in police court as three of his wives told Magistrate Oswald of their romances. The court was informed wife No. 1, known as Mrs. Stella Berger, was the only one night in Kansas City and depart for | not present. Bagun was said to -have married her in Denver, Col., in May, 1915.

Mrs. Bessie Kuntz, mother of Beatrice, charged Bagun with lIar- ceny of her diamond ring valued at $1,000. “Loneliness and my sociable na- ‘ture got me into this trouble,” Bagun told Magistrate Oswald. “I travel in my work and every time I got in a strange town I got lonesome.

London, Aug. 16 (N.Y.W.NS.)— The police station of the future will whave a trained -clairvoyant on the staff of the detective department, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, spiritualist and creator of “Sherlock Holmes,” prophe- sied in an interview here today. He drew a picture of the day when a. criminal will have to destroy all things used in’ the commission of a crime or a clairvoyant will “sense” the curse on the article and hand it over to the detectives. “I think that in every case of a mysterious nature a clairvoyant could be used,” said Sir Arthur. adding, “al- though I do not think anyose could convicted on the knowledge t, I think t to do with spirits.

SCREAMS ARE RECALLED Los Angeles, Aug. 16 (A.P.).—Mu- nicipal Judge Leonard Wilson today held Alexander Pantages, millionaire theater owner, for trial in Superior Court on charges of attacking 17- year-old Eunice Pringle in his private Office a week ago. The judge’s de- cision was given after three days of preliminary hearing. Pantages was held to answer on two felony counts, the court ruling that “there is sufficient cause to be- lieve the defendant guilty thereof.” The theater magnate remained at / liberty pending trial, on $25,000 bond. The date of his trial was not set. In connection with the holding of Pantages, Judge Wilson saw fit to ex- plain that in so doing ‘he was not passing upon the guilt or innocence of the hteater man, except insofar as evidence admissible to legal trial was concerned. “On account of the prominence of the defendant and the wide publicity which has been given this hearing, the court believes i tproper to describe the nature of the proceedings which have just come to a close,” Judge Wilson said in a formal statement from the bench. ; Still Presumed Innocent, “This is a preliminary hearing. The court is not called upon, nor is he permitted to pass upon the guilt or innocence of Mr. Pantages at this time. Nothing said herein should therefore be construed that this point is being finally decided. He is now and will be at all times hereafter un- til the case is finally submitted to the superior court, clothed with the presumption of innocence. The de- fendant has elected not to take the witness stand, nor to put on nay de- fense in his behalf, nor is he fre- quired ‘to do s0. W. C. Hale, a prosecution witness, testified today that Pantages gave “strict orders” to a police officer and himself to “keép this thing quiet” following. the alleged attack. Hale appeared as the State’s last witness at the preliminary hearing and corroborated the testimony of two other witnesses, Fred Wise and W. L. Gordon, that he saw Pantages &truggling with the girl in a small room in the Pantages Theater Build- in Hale said Pantages told him and Police Officer A. L. Courtney “I don't want any publicity,” as the two men broke into the private office, scene of the alleged attack, and found the executive. Doctors Reexamine Girl, The morning session was halted fifteen minutes early to allow two physicians to reéxamine Migs Pringle. The physicians were appointed by the State and defense. Hale was preceded on the stand by Fred Wise, | rt whe was cross-examined by the de- fense A14US R.SPRAR on his movements several days prior to the alleged assault, which occurred while the girl claimed’ she was interviewing Pantages con- cerning a. dancing act she sought to stage. At the opening of court, Pantages permitted his attorneys to withdraw part of their motion barring the public, and only newspaper men were admitted. Hale said he was sitting in the theater balcony watching a stage performance when he heard a girl’s screams. ' He ran to a corridor and . declared Miss Pringle rushed from a door, “screaming and fell into my arms.” - Garb in Disarray, He Says. The girl’s clothing was in disarray, Hale said, and her body was bruised. “She was screaming: ‘Don’t iet that beast get away,’” he declared. At the noon adjournment the de- fense announced it would call one witness, but would not offer rebuttal testimony. After cross-examination of Hale at the opening of the afternoon session, the defense and prosecution agreed they could not form a clear picture of the witness’ movements in the theater, and the court adjourned to the playhouse where Hale was in- structed to reenact his dash to Pan- tages’ office. The court was resumed in the theater corridors. Pantages and Miss Pringle avoided each other as the scene. switched from the hallways, where the girl claimed she fled after the attack, to Pantages’ private of- fice, in which Miss Pringle said she was assaulted.

Old Days Recalled. Hartman took Hanna back to the days shortly after horses had been E*abandoned as the motive power of street cars, when the white painted “U. S. Mail” car and other “trailers” ‘| were in use, and asked if the company had allowed any depreciation for its equipment since those days. Hanna said no, there had been no deprecia- truck” trailers and motor cars had been charged off. A few days ago he said that his company has not bought any new equipment for more than a decade, although he insisted that what it had was good and should be accepted on a cost-plus basis in its valuation, on which it is basing its claim for higher fares. Commissioner Hartman introduced a series of maps and tables showing street car lines and fare in other cities. Earlier the company had in- troduced similar maps and tables in support of its claims for higher fares. Hartman dissected the company ex- hibite regarding other cities, ‘asking numerous ons which Hanna could not answer. Hartman phrased his questions “is it not true” that this and that factor in other cities were different from Washington. He asked if the company’s exhibits al- lowed for two electric locomotives hased by the Buffalo company, if the cost figures given by the Capi- tion allowed for since the old “‘single “ei ~ et ant —— — F — Ee ACCUSED BY U. s. | ten tt — Associated Press Photo. ELMER 8. HUCKINS, CHIEF OF MYSTERY CONCERN ARRESTED Head of Firm Paying 26 Per Cent Annually Held on rraud Gount. LAWYER DENIES CHARGE Milwaukee, Aug. 16 (A.P.).—Elmer S. Huckins, head of a mysterious business which reputedly pays divi- dends of 26 per cent annually, today surrendered to Federal authorities who have charged him with using the mails to defraud. He was placed under $25,000 bond and ordered to appear for prelimi- nary hearing August 26, with the un- derstanding that there will be an- other adjournment until September 9. Huckins today again réfused to divulge the nature of the business he heads and, which is purported to have drawn an estimated $3,000,000 in investments, without solicitation, from hundreds of persons in the Middle West. A report that he is en- gaged in a “cigar business” has been persistently denied by Huckins and his son and associate, George Huck- ins, of Cedar Rapids, Iowa. ‘ Huckins’ attorney, Walter J. Barn- grover, of Cedar Rapids, appeared be- fore United States Commissioner Harry L. Kellogg with his client and asked for an immediate hearing. The court demurred and fixed the bail at $25,000. The commissioner agreed to accept Huckins’ $100,000 home at Hancock, Wigs.. in Neu of cash bond. Huckins, in custody of a deputy marshal, was then taken toa Oshkosh, Wis., where they were met by the former's wife, Mrs. Amelia Huckins, who was to sign the joint bond. Attorney Barngrover Geprecated the Government's cause and called the Huckins’ enterprise “just as honor- able and legitimate as any in Mil- waukee.” Barngrover said his client had not attempted to evade service of the Federal warrant and that he immeé- diately communcated with Federal authorities upon learning the status of the case.

The father has taken the two children with him almost daily on his work, letting them play around the homes where he is work-~- ing. When Josephine was just 4 baby, after the mother died, Lewis carried bottled milk with him that she might have her meals at regular hours, Helen, while suffering considerable pain from her injuries, is far from despondent and when the ,’‘man came to take her picture” yesterday after- noon, insisted that her father be in- cluded and that her pet rabbits have a prominent place in the photograph. $41,000 at Auction Buys Fauquier Springs Special to The Washington Post, Warrenton, Va., Aug. 16.—The auc- tion sale of the famous Fauquier White Sulphur Springs, which was held this week, totaled $41,000. Purchasers of the various tracts in the grounds were Judge William P. Wools, of the Corporation Court of Alexandria, Judge Howard W. Smith, judge of the Circuit Court of the Sixteenth circuit, and H. N. Spilman, A. G. Randolph, C. W. Carter, R. C Winmill and E. W. Winmill. The FPauquier Springs was a well known hostelry during the Civil War and up thrqugh the late nineties. tal Traction made allowance for op- eration of 9.28 miles of subways in Rochester, and many other questions. He apparently had more information than the company had about its own exhibits, and Hanna either said he could not answer or that he would give an answer later if the commis- sion desired him to do so. Hartman brushed « these offers aside, saying Hanna could if he wished, but it was not mandatory. Taxation Rate Thought High. Other questions were directed at taxation, but Hanna said that while he did not know the details Hartman asked him, he believed it was true that the taxation rate of the Capital Traction was very high because of ita low bonded indebtedness in compart~ son with its capitalization. Hanna had chewed many unlighted cigars and was not at his best as the hearings closed for the day. When Commissioner Hartman, who was pre- siding, asked whether the company’s case was “all in,” Hanna looked down the table toward G. Thomas Dunlop, general counsel, and George E. Ham- ilton, lawyer, former president and now chairman of the board of direc- tors of the Capital ‘Traction, and there ensued a company huddle, at the conclusion of which Dunlop for- mally addressed the commission to ask if certain other evidence might be offered later. The company claim for rate of re- turn seemed to have been attacked, he said, and in view of the questio-~ from the commission he pointed out that the fare asked for by the com- pany was less than 5 per cent which, in view of the United States Supreme Court, he said, is much less than a “fair” rate of return. There were somé other things said. of no especial point, whereupon the Capital Traction closed its case, ex- cept for rebuttal evidence. Presiding Chairman Hartman called on the Washington Railway & Electric Co. to be ready to present its case on Mon- day mofning and adjourned the hear- ings until 10 o'clock Monday morning. ‘was essential to the security 17, . 1929; CHINA LAYS TREATY RUPTURE 10 RUSSIA — Minister at Washington Is Reported as Told to Notify Powers. 5 CHANG MASSES TROOPS London, Aug. 16 (A.P.).—Reports from Nanking tonight were that the Chinese minister at Washington had been instructed to notify signatories of the Kellogg anti-war pact that Russia had invaded Chinese territory in Manchuria. This action by Foreign Minister Cc. T. Wang followed repeated un- Official reports during the last few Gays of actual conflicts with casual- ties between the opposing border patrols who have been massed on the Manchurian-Siberian front for weeks since the seizure of the Chinese East- ern Railway by the Chinese. The Russian demand that Soviet Rallway Officials be reinstated as a condition to opening peace negotia- tions has been refused and each gov- ernment has prociaimed a “firm stand” against the alleged aggressive attitude of the other. As a result the dispute, which recently seemed on the way to peaceful settlement with the encouragement of the powers, to- night was approaching the status of an open quarrel with all negotiations suspended or broken off. Wang Denies Dissension, Additional Chinese soldiers were reported on the way to the frontier and Minister Wang was quoted as saying that the Nanking government and Chang Hsueh Liang, who inher- ited the mantle of “War. Lord” in Manchuria from his father, Chang Tso Lin, were in complete agree- ment. The Soviet government has claimed that nearly 3,000 of its citizens for- merly tmployed on the Chinese Eastern Railway have been deprived of opportunity to obtain work and that more than 1,500 have been ar- rested by order of the Chinese direc- tor of the railway. They accuse the Chinese of hurriedly filling the va- cated posts with their own nationals and last night Vice Commissar of Foreign Affairs L. M. Karakhan gave official notice that the Soviet gov- ernment would not be bound by any contracts or agreements concerning the railway made after its seizure. New Clashes Reported. The railway had been operated by a joint directorate under a treaty made in 1924. The Chinese expelled the Russian officials on the charge that they had used their commercial positions for political purposes. Renewed alarming aspects of the crisis were reported in Reuter’s dis- patches from Mukden, Manchurio, today. Other sources related con- tinued clashes, although apparently of minor character, along the border between Russians and Chinese and Russians and white Russian emigres. A Reuter’s Mukden dispatch said Chang Hseuh Liang had ordered 60,- 000 Fengtien troops to the Siberian border, half to be commanded by Marshal Wang Shih Chen at Man- chuli and half to be stationed in the east at Suifenho (Pogranichnaya) un- der Gen. Ho Yu Kwan. It was said that 300 Russian ma- rines who had occupied two small towns on the lower Syngari River, had been driven off, six Russians and two Chinese dying in the conflict. SPOKANCE AVIATORS HOVER IN WYOMING CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. Spokane Sun God today started East- ward acroes the continent toward New York, where it is expected to hover long é¢nough to refuel and then turn West again. The airplane, manned by Pilots N. B. Mamer and Art Walker, of Spo- kane, planned to refuel at Rock Springs, Wyo. The filers hope not only to fly twice across the conti- nent without stopping, but by means of refueling, to set a new world's en- durance filght record. The Sun God left Spokane at 5:58 p. m. yesterday. Its departure was marked by elaborate ceremonies, in- cluding its formal naming. The christening was performed by Mrs Evelyn Fancher, widow of Maj. Jack Fancher, well-known National Guard aviator, who lives here. A large group of Flathead Indians ‘ent color to the ceremonies and it was in con- sideration of their tribal history that the plane was named the Sun God Chief Garry of the tribe pronounced a special blessing on the plane and flight. Flying by way of Portland and the Sacramento Valley the plane reached San Francisco this morning at 5:25 oc‘lock. It slowed up «nd was re- fueled twice, takng on 80 gallions of gasoline. It had dropped a note tell- ing of motor trouble last night, but there was no indication today of such trouble. Three refuelings were asked at San Francisco, but only two were taken, which was believed to have accounted ‘for the request for more gasoline at Rock Springs. U. S. RIGHT TO ENTER FAR SOUTH UPHELD CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. of the United States, in speaking today be- fore the Latin-American round table at the institute. “Recent improved political condi- tions, among the Caribbean coun- tries,” he said, “are due largely to our influence exerted for peace and for constitutional procedure. Dr. T. Deydil Vaca, of Philadelphia former representative of the Nicara- guan constitutional government at Washington, and in recent years champion of the Nicaraguan Liberal party in the United States, criticized the United States’ intervention policy in Nicaragua. “It is apparent after scanning the record,” he asserted, “that a delib- erate, relentless determination to hold Nicaragua at any cost is the fixed motive of our conduct there. Explanations of any sort are only ac- cessories after the fact.” The question of whether the pro- posed deep waterway to connect the Great Laxes with the Atlantic Ocean should be by the St. Lawrence or by the New York State route and Hudson River was debated this morn- ing. W. L. Harding, former governor of Iowa, advocating the St. Lawrence route, contended that a canal across New York State for the purpose of deep-sea shipping will not work. It could be dug, he said, but it is not feasible or practicable for the purpose desired. Edward C. — ch an of the .

Meanwhile, however, both Secretary of State Stimson and Undersecretary Cotton had left for their week-end vacations. Mr. Stimson said the press dis- patches made the situation look awk- ward, but added that he had no of- ficial confirmation of the border clashes and other incidents reported in late cables. The Secretary added that he was optimistic over the situ- ation. Dr. Wu had received no mes- sage from his government up to a late hour yesterday. Await Word From China. Presumably an appeal by China to the United States against Russian violation of the Kellogg pact would be transmitted in due course from the State Department here to other governments, if the Chinese make this request. But the’ State Depart- ment will be disinclined to press the matter pending official word from its own representatives as to latest reported border clashes. The Department would much pre- fer to interpret border clashes or in- vasions of Chinese territory as incti- dents which do not actually involve a violation of the Kellogg pact. To admit that the pact is being violated would be to admit that it has failed in its initial effort toward preserva- tion of peace and if there is any way that the developments in Manchuria can be construed so as not to admit failure of the pact, it is probable that such construction will be applied here. There will be the danger of more flagrant and extensive violations to cope with, according to present in- dications. But-even in case actual war there is nothing which the powers can do under the Kellogg pact, as that pact provides no machinery for coping with the consequences of any outbreak of war. reports from team workers showed that little more then $1,000 has been subscribed since Wednesday ROSEN when the drive opened.

The apparent agreement between the State Department and France on the valiiation of French exports to*this country is particularly interesting, com- ing.as it does at a time when the Senate findnce committee is considering ad- ministrative phases of the tariff. The French have accepted the State De- partment’s proposal, with reservations. It appears that the possibility of Con- gress writing the new tariff bill on the basis of domestic valuation has influ- enced the French to * a settlement. De tariff act of 1922 provides that agents of the Treasury Department shail be sent abroad to determine the mafiufacturing costs of goods being im- ported to the United States. Duties were to be calculated on the basis of théagents’ findings. The activities of these agents in France brought a storm of ° “protest. Foreign exporters to the United States had been in the habit of fixing their own (valuations, which means that they virtually decided how muth duty they would pay.. Some firms refused to open their books to the American agents, but the tariff act pro- | vided that the American market should | be dosed to such exporters. Agitation became so intense that the two countries entered into a temporary agreement under which American agents were withdrawn. This left no means of collecting necessary data on preduction costs, and the French again complained that American rather than French valuation was being used in fix- ing duties. After two years of nego- tiations, France has agreed to receive Treasury agents and to send her own agents to this country. The American agents, however, must speak French, and they must act only on invitation of French exporters. Furthermore, if Congress should retain the provision for an embargo against exporters who refuse to submit their books, France will nullify the agreement. This case emphasizes the wisdom of abandonment of the entire system of foréign valuations: The Treasury has repeatedly had trouble in attempting to fix a fair valuation on imported godds, because the law applies the tariff to foreign and not domestic values. The uselessness of boosting tariff rates to protect industry and labor and leaving the valuation largely in the hands of foreign importers is obvious. Adequate protection can not be given as long as there is opportunity for undervaluation. Attempts to determine fair foreign valuations lead to innumerable difficul- ties. and misunderstandings with other countries. The time is ripe for Congress to put the tariff on United States valuation. If the price at which foreign goods are sold in this country for duties, there can be no fraud or guesswork, and the expense of main- taining agents abroad can be elimi- nated. Domestic valuation is applied under the present law, but only as an alternative. It should be made the basic principle on which duties are cal- culated. The Senate finance committee, by adopting the United States selling priee as the basis of tariff duties, can atone stroke eliminate friction and fratid and secure more general and just protection of all American industries. is used as a basis AN AIRPORT WARNING. Ms Those who are accustomed to travel over highways or sails see am airplane circling ovefhead and at once reflect on the contrast betWeen travel on the ground and in the air. Airéraft, it appears, has no fixed routes and / few restrictions. Yet, as a matter of Tact, airplanes engaged in regular service are hel@ to routes only slightly less rigid than overland conveyances. It has long been recognized that only localities which pro- vide good highways can expect to become —2 of travel, but it hie only recently \ retinal: been recognized that a city can have no par in the rapid development of the aviation industry without an adequate airport. A number of cities in the United States have gained prominence as aviation centers because of their foresight in providing land- ing facilities, Many other cities have aspired to become air centers, but have delayed con- struction of an airport so long that airways have been established elsewhere. . Philadel- phia has long talked of building a fine municipal airport, but action has been slow, so slow in fact that Assistant. Postmaster General Glover has authorized removal of the Philadelphia air-mail terminal to the Central Airport near Camden, N. J. The conditions of the present Philadelphia field is such as to make landing dangerous in win- ter. The mayor and postmaster were in- formed a vear ago that unless the fleld was put in condition to allow safe operation dur- ing all seasons the air-malil service would be withdrawn. Washington is in a somewhat similar posi- tion. Hoover Field and the Washington Airport are considered too small for the air- mail service, and air-mail planes are permit- ted to use Bolling Field by permission of the Army. The arrangement is’ not a satisfac- tory one. Air-mafil planes have to be sery- iced at Hoover Field. Bolling Field is con- sidered reasonably satisfactory so long as no passengers are carried over the air-mail ine, but in rainy weather the field becomes soggy and night landing is hazardous. Of paramount concern is the fact that at any time the Government may find it necessary to ban civilian planes from the field. Washington can not afford to jeopardize future position in aviation by delaying action on a municipal airport. It would be a serious reflection on the National Capital to have aviation concerns pass it by in favor of cities with better landing facilities. The experience of Philadelphia should stimulate action on the local airport project. its — — — — — DECLINE IN NATIONAL BANKING, The report of John W. Pole, comptroller of the currency, on the decline of national bank resources is certain to renew demands for: legislation liberalizing Federal banking laws. The report confirms previous state- ments of Mr. Pole that the national bank is in danger of gradual extinction, because nore favorable charters may be ob- tained from the States. It should hasten the formation of a new policy on national bank- ing in the Treasury Department, and congressional committees on banking work, During the past three months total re- sources of the national banks decreased $1,581,684,000. The number of banks in operation declined from 7,575 to 7,556. Loans, discounts and security holdings showed comparable reductions. The one bright spot in the report was the section devoted to the growth of trust operations by the national banks. Permits to exercise trust powers have been granted to 2,442 national banks, and 1,734 of them have established trust departments, During the last three years the number of banks operating trust de- partments has increased 57 per cent, and the number of trusts being administered 191 per cent. Because of the popularity of fidu- ciary activities this is a decided asset to the national banking system. The comptroller’s report makes no com- ment on the decline of resources, but several weeks ago Mr. Pole told the Maryland Bank- ers Association that 79 national banks with total resources of nearly $3,000,000,000 had passed under State jurisdiction. Branch banking, which is prohibited to national banks, is making rapid gains in the United States. Many institutions are finding branch operations so attractive that they are will- ing to substitute State for Federal charters. It does not follow, however, that the num- ber of State banks is increasing. It is esti- mated that small banks are failing at the rate of approximately 1,000 per year. This does’ not represent critical financial condi- tions, but rather a rapid evolution in bank- ing methods. , Huge financial Institutions in the cities are flourishing and small rural banks are disappearing, because the com- munities in which they operate ave no longer isolated from large financial centers. The tendency indicates further development of branch banking. Whether or not Congress will put national banks on a par with State banks in this re- gard is a question. It is generally agreed that if the national bank system is to sur- vive Congress will have to provide more at- tractive charters. In view of the rapid trans- formation which is taking place the situation can not be given attention too soon. system set to — — — — . BRITISH COTTON SITUATION. Under a’ temporary agreement the British cotton strike has been ended, and the Lan- cashire mills are again working in full swing. Since July 29, when the strike was called, some 600,000 workers have been idle and more than $15,000,000 has been lost in wages. Under the terms of the temporary agreement the status quo ante is established and the dispute will be referred to a court of arbitration with both workers and em- ployers pledged to accept the court’s award. The strike was precipitated by the operators’ determination to reduce wage scales by about one-eighth, on the ground that they could not pay the existing scale. The workers re- fused to accept the cuts, contending that they already were laboring for a starvation wage. Sir Horace Wilson, permanent secretary to the minister of labor, brought the disputants together. He suggests that employers aud workers form a joint committee under an independent chairman to instire cooperation between the government's committee that is soon to inquire into the whole state of the cotton industry and cotton trade organiza- tions, and a joint committee which is em- barking on the same purpose. The strike that has now been ended was but a symptom of the diseased condition of the British cotton industry. The mills, since the war, have had hard sledding and, under present conditions, are probably unable to pay the prevailing wage scale without losing money. But the workers are in a desperate condition. They are paid mere pittances, and cgn-not be expected to live on less. The strike has served to aggravate the situation. Workers and mills have lost large sums through enforced idleness, and it will take the entire district years te recover from the It the workers were unable to live on reduced wages before the strike, they will be worse off now, when many of them are in debt. The mills are handicapped by the loss of eighteen. days’ operations. The future of the British cotton industry will be determined in the next few months. It is obvious that if cotton spinning is to sur- vive as a major British activity the mills must be modernized, new processes must bé6 adopted, and a eet eee ae oe un- dertaken.. While cotton cloth may -not be in as great demand as it once was, it is still consumed in large quantities in Asia. It can be produced at a profit to the manu- facturer and under wage scales commensu- rate with modern living costs, provided the industry is modernized, properly organized and economically managed. - ZEPPELIN STAMPS, Just how many stamp collectors there are in the world who wish to own postage stamps which show by the envelopes to which they are attached that they were carried on the Graf Zeppetin will probably never be known. But the Postoffice Department will discover very soon how many of these philatelists are ready to pay the price for stamps of this character. The’ price seems to be rather high, at least to the noncollector who is in- clined to growl if he finds one of his letters returned to him stamped “returned because of insufficient postage.” Letters carried on the Graf Zeppelin will travel de luxe, and the cost to the sender -is steep enough to pay for extraordinary care. The Daily Postal Bulletin issued by the de- partment for August 15 announces that the charges for: postal service from Los’ Angelea to Lakehurst, N. J., on letters weighing not more than one ounce, are 60 cents each; postcards, 30 cents each. From Los Angeles to Friedrichshafen the rates are $1.80 and $90 cents, respectively. The sender may have a letter carried from Lakehurst to Friedrich- shafen for $1.20, or he may send a post- card for 60 cents. The big airship is somewhere over western Asia today, and no one can tell just when she will land in California; but if there are any collectors in Washington who have de- signs on the service between Los Angeles and the home port of the Zeppelin it would seem advisable that they ‘‘get busy”’ at once. | CHURCHILL ON PARITY From Speech by Winston Churchill at Ortawa, August 15. It has been the aim of every British gov- ernment. to remove all stumbling blocks from the path of Anglo-American friendship. The Anglo-Japanese alliance has happily merged in a wide agreement, secur- ing peace in the Pacific Ocean. Our war debts have been settled in accordance with the wishes of the United States. Whatever we may think of that settlement, so far as it affects the general interests of Europe, so long as we ourselves receive from Europe what we are to pay to the United States, it is clearly not a matter that has any longer a direct influence on our affairs or feelings. The only live issue that remains is the question of a naval agreement. This is a difficult topic, and one on which it is essen- tial that any discussion should be cool and matter of fact. The only question is, will the new naval agreement make things easier? Will it bring about a reduction in expenditures on arma- ments? The Washington conference of 1921 was a great decision for which the govern- ment of which I was a member bears its re- sponsibility. But on looking back, I begin to wonder if it did not do as much harm as good to Anglo-American relations. In fact, the only causes of friction in the last few years between our ak ag peoples have been on points connected with the working of this naval agreement. Rut the Washington agree- ment dealt only with battle fleets. That was a simple matter. been Fears Misunderstandings. The new agreement will be a more com- plicated affair. It seems to me that we are opening up a field of infinite technical dis- cussion with immense possibilities of mis- understanding if we try to regulate the whole of the minor construction of the two coun- tries in accordance with some rigid treaty instrument, The United States is almost a continent, possessing everything requisite for prosperity. We are an island, dependent for our food and our raw material on sea-borne trade. This island is the center of an empire whose ‘only routes are across the ocean. We in Great Britain are only one hour from Europe, with its animosities and quar- | rels.. There can be no parity of circum- stances. To apply a rigid numerical equality to conditions so markedly unegual runs a great risk of not arriving at the true goal, which is that the United States and the Brit- ish Empire shall be equal powers upon the sea. If this great diversity of conditions is not understood by the United States, then a fair agreement will be very hard to reach. And if it is reached on paper without the real assent of public opinion in each country, then in years to come it may again raise up those difficulties which it is our object to sweep away. I doubt if a rigid agreement will lead to an effective reduction in ex- penditures. Foresees Worse Rivalries. Great Britain is anxious to meet the wishes ‘of the United States, especially when at their head. is a President who has a profound knowledge of European affairs and who shows a keen appreciation of European diffi- culties. | But if the result of this good-will were to produce the spectacle of two large, costly navies, rigid replicas of one’another, jealous- ly serutinized by experts across the ocean, measured in their last detail and advertised by the press, it would produce conditions not less vicious than those that produced the rivalries and competitions before. I would prefer each nation to go its own way, acting in a neighborly spirit and building the few- est ships it needs for its own naval security. We are not offended if the United States builds the cruisers they require for the ex- ercise of their authority or for their security. We are sure they will never be used against 39 —— — Seal —* aie ait Civilized — of — Louisville Courier-Journal. Another Hare and Tortoise Race? ‘PRESS COMMENT. Paying the Fiddler.

There is nothing approaching it, as a natural spectacie, in,’ or in the vicinity of, any European city.

Of course, it should be protected, and the American people—bBecause making Washington incomparably the most beautiful national capital is of interest to every intelligent American —should instruct Congress to stand between Washington and the ruin of Great Falls. | JUST FOLKS — By EDGAR A.

To the Editor of The Post—Sir: I had a good laugh when reading this morning’s paper and saw the White House announcement that our naval experts would no longer participate in the arms conferences and that the old order of things had passed. Is the conference in 1922 old? I would call it the return to the old order. Who were our naval experts that gave Great Britain superiority in 1922? Surely, you do not call the well- known attorney, Charles Evans Hughes, a naval expert. Coolidge did think that there should be some one at Geneva who knew something about our Navy, and attempted to create a new order of things. Now we are re- turning to the old, What a “rooking” we will get! Every Britisher knows his navy, and especially those of the diplomatic corps. They will have a great story to tell their grandchildren of how they slipped it over on the great Hoover. You can absolutely depend upon them to “bring home the ba- con” if you give them a chance. Al- though Dawes is a man of great abil- ity, he is liable to find himself in a their terms or go down in history as the biggest militarist of his day. Parity to the British does not con- vey the same meaning to them as it does to us. They like to define it so that it will mean superiority to the British. L. M. Use of Streets as Public Garages Condemned by Indignant Citizen. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: My compliments to “The Observer” in” this morning’s Post. That chap is worthy of a congressional medal for cerning the streets of Washington. That the once interesting, quaintly beautiful streets of the Cap- ital City have become hideously ugly, dirty and disreputable by turning them into public garages there is absolutely no doubt whatever. There was a time when one driving through the streets of Washington could see below the second floor win- dows in either the Business or resi- dential sections, or, if walking, it was possible to see the gardens and ar- tistic doorways to the charming homes on many of the streets and avenues; but try to do it now! One sees nothing but a long line of closely parked automobiles on both sides of the way. . Nowhere is there displayed such flagrant abuse of the laws, and the seeming determination by the police and city officials not to see this abuse, as one sees right here in the law-mak- ing city of the Nation. Even Chicago, where the population is only 25 per mit the streets to be used as a public garage. In the Loop district, cars are only: allowed to stop long enough to dis- charge their passengers.

Mme. de Martino will not join him here from Europe until later in the fall. The Counselor of the Embassy, Count Alberto Marchetti, who has béen in Italy for about two months, will return to this country August 26, and will probably come imme- diately to Washington. . The First Seoretary of the Embas- sy, Sngnor Leonardo Vitetti, has been here throughout the season, and now has as his guest for several days in his charming studio apartment on Fifteenth street, a distinguished vis- itor, Baron Kellner, Italian Minister to Guatemala. The Military Attache, Gen. Au- gusto Villa, is expected in Washing- ton in a few days from Newport where he has been visiting his broth- | and | er and. sister-in-law, Countess Alfonso Villa. The latest news from the Embassy is that the Air Attache, Commander Silvio Scaroni, one of Washington's most attractive bachelors, sailed yes- terday on the Aquitania for a two months’ leave in his native country. There would have been great conster- nation had this trip been more than a conge. WHOTIT? (“WHOZIT?” is a test of your knowledge of history and current events.

EW YORK, Aug. 16 (AP.)— , Samuel (“Red”) Solomon, 13- if year-old player-m er ofa * baseball team in the Bronx, to- day became the youngest person ever to sign a major league contract by coming to “terms” with Joe McCar- thy, of the Chicago Cubs, but this does not mean ‘Red will begin -his _ Major league career immediately.

MACK STARS BY PROXY IN OUTFIELD By WESTBROOK PEGLER _ LEVELLAND, Ohio, Aug. 16-—Kid Gleason, Eddie Collins and other close adhererite of Connie Mack have been claiming that this old boy, who hasn't played a game of ball in @ quarter of a century and never did snatch fiy balls, having been a catcher when in active practice, can judge the arc, direction and length of an outfield fiy from a si position on the bench before the is hit. They even state that old Mack, while sitting in a leather rocker in a hotel lobby or lying in a Pulliaan berth on a train can plot on a diagram the approximate flight of an outfield sock by any hitter in the American League, given the name of the pitcher and a description of the pitch as to whether it is a fast ball or curve. In this respect they claim for him a fielding average of about .775, which is a very high claim to be mde on behalf of an all-season out- fielder of 67 years who does all his outfielding from a sitting position a long way off. Mack Assumes Full Responsibility. Mr. Mack is always moving his out- fielders about with wigwag signals done with a score card, placing them where he thinks the fiy balls, if any, | are going to drop and assuming re- ‘sponsibility for all operations out yonder except the mere mechanical work, of reaching out and taking hold of the ball when it gets there. This, his total of chances accepted, is ap- proximately three times that of any active field hand, as he undertakes to gueés for all three precincts, read- ing from left to right. In reckoning his percentage I suppose you would charge the outfield hits, excepting grounders, against him aad give him credit for all outfield putouts, but I am not going into the arithmetic, as that only leads to confusion with me. When the Athletics went out to lark and. play with the Cleveland In- dians this p. m. I checked upon Mr. Mack’s vicarious outfielding. The checking went all right for a while, but along in the later innings the Indians began to nag back at the A’s and with people yelling and throwing straw hats and the mustard of a hot dog fouling the keys of the type- writer things became slightly balled up. Mack Stars in Field, By Proxy. However, it was my impression that, under the terms stated, Mr. Mack fielded himself a pretty good game of ball, by proxy. George Earnshaw, a iong, loose- hung right-hander, who seems to be made in sections Iike one of those wooden anatomical dolls that art students use for models, was pitching for Mr. Mack's company. The first fly was hit by Ed Morgan, and it was no fair test of Mr. Mack's knack, either, for the pitch seemed to be just nothing in particular. ‘Old Mr. Mack was sitting on the Planks down in the trench, stooped and skinny and solemn, and waving his outfielders this way a bit, a few feet that way as Morgan went up with hig racquet. There was no special swift on the pitch. Neither did it hook nor slice. When a pitcher just whangs the ball in there like+ a chap throwing a brick off a roof. at a policeman, the guessing is harder, but Old Mr. Mack guessed right. The ball went to Al Simmons and he had nothing to do but stretch out his glove and take hold. Gardner’s Hit Charged as Error for Cornelius. J. Giddyap Hodapp hit the next outfield smack, in the second in- ning. Bing Miller was waiting where Old Mr. Mack had put him and three or four steps put him under the ball.

YE, N. Y., Aug. 16 (AP.)— “William T. Tilden, of Phila- delphia, and Francis T. Hunre ter, of New Rochelle, gained the final round of the Eastern grass court tennis singles championship today. They will meet tomorrow afternoon for the title won last year by Johu Doeg, of Santa Monica, Calif. Tilden eliminated Doeg in the semifinals today 6—3, 3—6, 6—4, 6—4, after Hunter had defeated the English crack, H. W. (Bunny) Aus- tin, 6—4, , 6—2, 1—6, 6—1. During the first set and part of the second of his match with Doeg, Tilden displayed the sort of tennis expected of him. He was pitted against a youngster who possesses a service more severe than Tilden’s, and the national ranking star had to attend strictly to business to make sure of his games. Doeg’s service was so effective in the first set that during the fourth game he shot over three lightning- like shots in a row on service that scored perfect aces on Tilden and produced snickers ‘and laughter from the gallery. Games in this set fol- lowed service until the eighth, when Tilden broke through for a 5—3 game lead and then took the next on his own cannon ball service. Doeg Beats Himself by Errors In Fourth Set. In the second set, games again followed service until the fourth game when it was Doeg’s turn to break through and take the follow- ing game for a 4—l lead. Games then again followed service until Doeg ran out the set 6—3. Tilden raised his game a few notches to gallop away with the third set and then romped away with the fourth and deciding one as well. Doeg fell into a bad slump, his service failed him and he made so many errors that Tilden had noth- ing to do but wait for the youngster to beat himself, Ww Hunter and Austin played another. rather colorless taatch, but it was re- deemed by Hunter’s exhibition of tireless energy in driving off forehand with all his strength for five full sets without a single resort to soft strok- ing. Austin’s handling of Hunter’s fore- hand drive and the surprising speed he put on the ball raised the match a bit above the ordinary, but it was exciting only in spots. Although car- rying more strokes than Hunter the Englishman never was in a position to make full use of his repertoire. Misses Palfrey and Greef Meet in Women’s Final Today. * Hunter kept.Austin away from the net because the Briton has a_fine volleying game, and this strategy, coupled with his own terrific driving game, gave him the match. In the-women’s division Sarah Pal- frey, 16-year-old conqueror of Mrs. May Sutton Bundy, continued her brilliant play by eliminating Mrs. L. ’ “per, Of San Francisco, in straight sets in the semifinal round, 6—3, 6—3. She will meet 18-year-old Mary Greef, of Kansas City, in the final round on Sunday. Miss Greef reached the final round by ing Ethel Burkardt,

Y., Aug. 16 (A.P.).—Anthony Pascuma, 23-year-old jockey, probably has ridden in his last..race. A broken leg received in a fall from his mount here today put the jockey in the Saratoga Hospital, with the doctor’s verdict that his riding days were over. Caught in a jam, when mineteen juveniles broke from the barrier in the opening race, Pascuma was hurled from his mount, W. 8. Kilmer’s Dark Goddess, and before he could free his foot from the stirrup, his knee was crushed by the hoofs of the charging horses. It was at first thought it would be necessary to amputate the leg, but @ later investigation showed an op- eration unnecessary. Attending phy- sicians, however, stated that if the knee healed, he would never be able to bend it again. Pascuma’s injury was by far the most serious of the current meeting, which ends August 31. Pascuma started his big time riding three sea- @ons ago at New Orleans, La., later joining E. B. McLean's Stable, riding in the West last year. He came East at the opening of the 1929 season, where he has been doing free lance riding successfully. He was to have report- ed to Trainer Schorr, of the McLean Stable, at the atart of the Maryland season. Pascuma rode Blue Larkspur to vic- tory last year in the Great American, the National Stallion Stakes and the Saratoga Special. He was astride the 3-year-old champion again when he finished second in the Hopeful. Bean Wrack Wins in Romp In Claiming Stakes. The Mohawk Claiming Stakes, with @ Value of 83,150 to the winner, was won by Sagamore Stable’s Beau Wrack, which made a show of his company here today. Beau Wrack, which has never shown much sprinting ability, simply brezed to his fleld. He paid 7 to 2. G. D. Widener’s Grffin was second, and Mrs. W. Knapp’s Count Palatine third. Please, favorite, finished fourth. There were six starters. off to a good start with Beau Wrack and Please going to the front. Please held Beau Wrack for 3 furlongs and then dropped back, while Beau Wrack opened a ten-length lead. He breezed along from eight to ten lengths in front. There was no change in the stretch, and Beau Wrack won eased up by ten lengths. Griffin took the place by two lengths from Count Palatine, while Please was fourth, a head back. The time was 1:39 1-5.

Y., Aug. 16 (A.P.)—A new reigning 3- year-old thoroughbred will be named tomorrow at Saratoga with the sixtieth running of the $25,000 Trav- ers midsummer derby. With Blue Larkspur out of the rac- ing wars for the remainder of the sea- gon and Jack High still recuperating from injuries, the 3-year-old situa- tion is as much in the air as it was before Blue Larkspur conquered the best of his age in the Withers, the Belmont and the Classic. Eight runners have been named to challenge for the right to rule the 3-year-old division, although the list includes only one big stake winner, Dr. Freeland, of Preakness fame, the remainder is made up of colts which battled the Bradley star as he climbed the championship heights. Dr. Freeland, Preakness Winner, To Pack 126 Pounds. Because of his victory in the $50,- 000 Preakness, Dr. Freeland will pack the heavy impost of 126 nounda. 3 more than J. E. Widener’s Marine, the speedy son of Man o’ War, which won the Travers in 1920. The Belair Stud’s Prisius is in with 120 unds, while the Nut, from the arm Stable; Marry Payne Whitney's Beacon Hill, the Rosedale Stable’s Live Oak, R. T. Wilson jr.’s African and W. R. Coe’s Dail will carry 117 pounds each. Last year’s renewal of the Travers saw Petee Wrack turn in a sensa- tional victory over a field of four starters, including Mrs. John OD. Hert2’s champion, Reigh Count. ‘As a secondary feature to the Trav- ers, fourteen juvenile fillies will go forth in search of the 1929 2-year- old filly championship in the $7,500 Spinway. The field includes all of the leading misses of the East, with H, C. Phipps’ Adequate and Gifford A. Cochran's The Spare, a $7,200 buy as a yearling, carrying the top weights of 122 pounds. TIGERS PLAY KAUFMANS. The Takoma Tigers, in final prep- aration for their opening Montgomery County series with Rockville tomorrow, will engage the D. J.

CONNIE MACK STARS IN FIELD BY PROXY CONTINUED FROM PAGE 13. to center in the third will have to be charged as an error to Mr. Mack. He had the direction right, but he misjudged the length of the drive and it came up to Miller on the bounce. But when Luke Sewell raised one to left, Simmons was just about there. Joe Shaute also-guessed Mr. Mack in this inning, hitting a low fly to left, straight at Simmons, but short of him. Morgan bounced a long one against the right field wall, too, but I claim that should be no contest as far as Mr. Mack is con- cerned. You can’t hang your out- fielders upon these high walls. In the fifth, Miller was just where Gardner’s fly came down. All this while, Homer Summa was shifting hither and yon in the outfield, wait- ing for trade and in the sixth, he ran in to collaborate with Bishop and Miller on a short fly from Joe Sewell. Mr. Mack had not one employe but three, on his spot, and Summa of- ficiated. Averill hit a single to right, but it was a grounder and you can’t put men under grounders. Fonseca hit a fly, though, ending the inning, and Summa stood where the old gent had put him, to take it. Old Boy Picking Spots For His Forces. Never having checked up on such matters before, I can’t say whether anything uncanny was going on out there or not. It is nothing startling to see outfielders hanging around where fly balls come down, still, the old boy was picking the spots and deploying the forces from a post of command that didn’t afford a very good rspective. He was just going by what he knew of the hitters’ habits and going very well, too. Things went along about the same in the seventh. Summa was under Falk’s fly and Hodapp’s single went straight at Simmons, but along the ground. Two pinch hitters, Hauser and Jamieson, walked. Morgan hit a single to center, but again the ball hugged the ground and two men scoréd, Giddyap Hodapp and Hauser. In the eighth, Miller was in line for Morgan’s single, but this was a grounder. The only soaring ball of the inning was Falk's, and Miller took it in his pants pocket. Porter's Single Another Error for Mack. Porter’s single in the ninth was an- other error for the Philadelphia boss- man. Myatt’s fly went straight to Summa, scoring Tavener, who had walked. Morgan hit a single to right, but the customers were much upset by the doings and I fell to watching the ball game myself and can’t state just how that one was. But check them to here if you are curious about the old fellow’s out- fielding average for a typical ball game, allowing that grounders can’t be caught on the fly. e whole scene leaves an impression that Connie Mack had a workman on the job where there was work to be done many more times than he didn’t, and if the figures bear out the impression maybe that is marvelous. On the other hand, maybe it isn’t. The out- fielders might have picked their loca- tions just as well themselves if Connie Mack had left it to them.

Tate’s Double Starts Nats’ First Rally. —— was the first to score, Tate doubling to left to start the second, moving to third on Gooch’s single and coming home on Hayes’ Sacrifice fly to center. Three singles and a base on balls in the fourth allowed the White Sox to score the ie runs which overcame this early ead. Judge tied the score An the sev- enth, singling to left te start the inning, going to second on Rice's sacrifice and coming home when Gos- lin lined a single to center. The White Sox bore down upon Burke with a vengeance in the sev- enth, Cissell getting a walk with one down and scoring on the home run which Reynolds parked in the lowe deck of the left-field stands. Shires doubled inside first and went to third on an error by Cronin which allowed Hoffmann to reach first. After‘Kar~ni had popped to Judge, Kerr lifted a pop fly to Rice, but Rice let the bali get away from him for a two-base error, Kerr reaching second and Shires and Hoffmann scoring. Goslin Again Ties Score With Single. Washington came back in the eighth to tie up the score again, Gooch leading off with a single to left, going to third on Cronin’s single to right and scoring on Hayes’ sacrifice fly to right field. Boss batted for Burke and was safe at first when Kerr bobbled his grounder, Cronin going to second. Judge was an easy infield out, but Rice did his duty by slipping a lone double to the corner of the left-field stands, which scored Cronin and Boss. Goslin tied the score, as he had in the seventh, by singling to right to bring Rice home, Tate singled to left, but both he and Gos- lin died on the sacks when West lifted a long fly to left field.

No Bad News in 1930 for Babe Herman. -Ohe young man who Is certain t find no_bad news in his 1930 con- tract is Mr. Babe Herman, of Brooklyn Robins.

This 1929 development sy while extremely gratifying to Robin rooters is hardly a surprise to any of them. Herman has been a ** hitter ever since he became a in, But it is as a fielder that he has been making eyes pop out. cuekoos from as many clocks. In previous years his fielding been such as to cause strong mer to avert their heads and less hardy ones to swoon. In fielding action Mr. Herman suggested William Edwards with Irvin 8. Cobb on his neck, doing the Charleston on a tight wire over Niagara Falls. Fly balls hit him everywhere but in the palm of his gloved hand. Made Outfield Catches In Self-Defense. At one time Wilbert Robinson con- sidered buying him a steel helmet and a coat of mail to keep him from getting killed.

This season it’s a different Herman is no Tris Speaker out there | in the garden, by a long shot. Neither, for that matter, is anybody else ir the league.

BASEBALL, TRA CK COACH Grid Me Mentor ~ Undecided Upon Farrington to Handle Diamonders, Sexton Track C oach, 11 Letter Men Due to Return for Foot- ball Team. NNOUNCEMENT of point- ment of ————— coaches did not materialize at Washington University yesterday but James E. Pixlee, éctor of athletics and professor of. physical education, did reveal his selections for the base- ball and track coaching assignments for next spring. Max Fafrington, Pixlee’s first as- sistant, will coach the Colonial dia- mural athletics, will tutor the cinder path artists, the director stated. Both Farrington and Sexton were pupils under Pixlee at Westminster College, Fultoh, Mo., from which Pixlee re- signed to accept the George Washing- ton post a few months ago. It had been expected that Piglee would announce the 4 intment of new coaches to handle the varsity ‘football team this fall, bui the di- rector encountered several problems in his investigation of Mp candidates and found it necessary to postpone definite action until early next week. Varsity and Frosh Gridmen May Drill Separately. : At that time Pixlee probably also “will announce the practice program to be followed by the freshmen and varsity gridmen. He is contemplating different hours for the drilling of the two classes, Eleven letter men will report with the candidates for, the varsity team when the training call is issued three weeks hence. They are Babe Clapper, Sam Berkowitz, John Clements and Vernon Frazier, backs; Steele Mc- Grew and Harmon Frances, ends; Bevo Miller, Dan Eberly and Channing Da- vis, tackles; and Mel Frazier and Cal- vin Rodgers, guards. Others ta report who were members of the varsity Squad last year are Dave Coombs, back; Burr Christopher, tackle; Jus- tine Edgerton and Robert Rollins, guards, and Jack Purdy, an end, who ‘showed enough promise last season to warrant the prediction that he will put up a strong bid for a regular wing berth this fall. George Washington will play eight games this season, five in Washinz- ton. Central High School Stadium probably will’ be the scene of the home contests. There is a ibility, however, that the Colonials will se- cure a playing field of their own. Colonials to Open Season Against Manhattan College. “The opening game will be with Manhattan College of New York City on a local gridiron October 5.

Arkle, blonde ace of Wheeling, bore off Western Maryland titular tennis hon- ors at the expense of Marion Rine- hart, powerful Pittsburgnher, in an impressive straight-set exhibition on = the galle court of the Women’s Civic Club here this afternoon. The verdict read 6—3, 6—2, but really fails to tell the story of Rine- hart’s brilllancy in spots, the ever- consistent, Arkle checkmating his op- ponent’s “flashier game with truly airtight mound covering. Arkle, with his townsmanh, Fred Selby, also trimmed Rinehart in the men’s doubles and semifinals, 6—4, the Stanton star pairing with George Sawin, another Pittsburgh liminary. Lobs turned the trick.

ITH only 8 points separating five Of the six scoring teams, the Weightman Playground team yesterday won the Northwest- ern Conference meet, the last of the sectional games before the municipal playground department's city meet on the Plaga Playgrounds next Wed- nesday, in which The Washington Post’s meédals and cups will be at stake. : At the Cooke Playgrounds yester- day, Weightman ran up a string of 87 points to nose out Adams which amassed a total of 35. Cooke and were tied for third place with 31 points, ‘while Bancroft, with 30 points, beat out Johnson, which scored 16 ints, for fifth place, It was Weightman's second straight conference victory and was not un- expected. However, the showings of the Bancroft and Johnson teams came as a distinct surprise. Bancroft stepped into the lead with the run- ning of the lighter events but weak- ness in the relays dimmed tits chances of winning. Weightman Profits By 3rd Places. Lennon, Marper and Harrison did the bulk of the scoring for Weight- man, although the latter profited by a humber of third places. Cooke and Adams were afforded an opportunity of tying if not beating Weightman by taking top places in the half- mile run.. Cooke, however, failed to lace and Chew, of Adams, was third. e event was won by Tabler, one of Bancroft’s bright stars. Wallace Bloyer, of Adams, was the individual star of the meet. He ac- counted for 13 points, winning the 70-yard dash and the running broad jump and finishing second in the running high jump. Bloyer is tn the unlimited class and gives Adams a prospective point-scorer for the city meet where he will probably pick the 100-yard dash as his event. The relays provided some of the keenest action of the meet. The fea- ture, the unlimited relay, was won by the Happy Hollow team composed of Pisciotta, Sullivan, Scanlon and Rany. Sullivan’s victory in the un- limited running high jump stamps him as a city meet threat. He will carry the colors of Happy Hollow. 70-POUND CLASS. 50-YARD DASH—Won by N.

Photographers’ stands are being bullt on the right and left field sides of the grand stand and the work is being pushed. Heretofore photog- raphers were the field. 53 Football Candidates | Seek Berths onC. U. Team Out-of-Town Camp Considered; Coach McAuliffe to Name Assistant. IFPTY-THREE players, composing the largest squad called for early practice in recent years, will re- port to Head Coach Jack McAuliffe, of Catholic University, for preseason training shortly after Labor Day. All of the 1928 varsity squad, excepting Capt. Jim Schmidt, half back, and “Happy” Conveigh, reserve back, both of whom graduated, will be in the group. McAuliffe may yet decide to take his charges to an out-of-town camp instead of drilling them here, as has been reported. He is now attendin the Harvard summer coaching schoo at Cambridge, but will return within ten days. On the trip south, he may inspect a camp site in Connecticut with the view to establishing train- ing quarters there. New Backfield Coach to Be Selected. The Cardinal head coach Will ap- point an assistant to coach the back- field players before training opens, it is said. Myles Lane. former Dart- mouth star, who was sought for this position earlier in the summer, will not be the man. He is reported to have asked a bigger salary than the Brookland institution wanted to pay. The tenure of office of the assistant will be only about twelve weeks. Eddie Lafond, Catholic University alumnus and one of the Cardinals’ best guards in his day, will return as coach of the freshmen eleven. So far he has learned but little of the in- coming first-year squad. His 1928 freshmen were undefeated and un- scored on. Eddie Kane and Johnny Oliver, members of Lafond’s team last fall, are regarded fine prospects for regular varsity Jobs this season. Kane likely will be Joe Champa’s warmest rival for one of the half back positions, while Oliver has a big chance of earning many assignments in the quarter back role hitherto occupied exolusively by Gene Murphy. Since neither Murphy nor Oliver is excep- tionally strong physically, it is more than likely that they will divide the work as the regular signal barker. Four District Players Are On List.° Four Washington youths are among the group slated to report for pre- season training. They are George SS posed by Lefty Hamilton. 8 Menke, varsity guard; Mike Durso, | substitute center; John Hickey, 1928 | freshmen tackle, and Joseph De Bet- | tencourt.

BELL presiding at the console of one of the largest instruments in the world at the new Warner Theater on the Boardwalk in Atlantic City. The pic- ture of the theater indicates it to be about the size of the Mojave Desert, but nowhere near so simple in de- sign. About the time of the Spanish- American War, America's foremost song writer was Paul Dresser. His “Blue and The Grey” was one of the greatest popular successes ever ground off the presses. About the time this melodic burst of patriotism was at its height, a timid blonde walked into his office one day and asked that he listen to her sing a few of his com- positions. He did, and forthwith hied the young woman to a booking office where he at once secured extended engagements for the girl he described as “my little sister,” just to make it more impressive. That is the way in which Louise Dresser, long one of the most capable songsters of the American stage, and formerly the wife of Jack Norworth, the singing comedian, came by the mame which has clung to her ever since. This is recalled to mind by the announcement that Miss Dresser is cast in the role of Dolores Costello's mother in “The Madonna of Avenue A,” current at the Earle Theater. I only hope she does as good a job as she did in a similar part with Madge Bellamy in “Mother Knows Best.” It seems that they have managed the matter of Dolores Del Rio's slight accent with considerable skill in planning her first all-talking pic- ture which, incidentally, is to be her next release, The title is “The Bad One,” the locale France, and Miss Del Rio is cast as a French cabaret singer— thereby making a place for the Del Rio singing voice in logical fashion. The story was. adapted from an original by John Farrow and it is hinted that despite the star’s pro- testations to the contrary during her Washington visit, Edwin Carewe may again direct. That, however, will not be definitely determined until Mr. Carewe returns from Europe, whence he has already sailed. Elsie Janis has been signed by Paramount to contribute “material, ideas and talent and to supervise production” of a feature now in preparation at the Hollywood plant, according to announcement by Jesse L. Lasky, vice president in charge of production. The title and details of the production are not disclosed. Neither is any reason why this should go on beyond here. Today’s True Detective Story The Warehouse Mystery By VANCE WYNN O you remember AH Baba and the adventure of the 40 thieves. If so, keep the incident in mind and you may get a clue to the mys- tery contained in the veracious tale which follows. It was in November, 1905, that the warehouse of the Security Storage Co., in New York City, was robbed of @ large amount of rare and valuable bric-a-brac. Never was there anything like it in the history of the New York Police ment. The company in ques- tion prided iteelf upon its ability to take care of its goods. The building was fireproof and was supposed to be ’ burglar-proof. The system of watch- men was as perfect as money and human ingenuity could make it. In addition to this the superintendent had a method of his own by which he @hecked up on his employes. How were the goods stolen? It was demonstrated beyond the ghadow of a doubt that no one had broken into the building during the aight. The shutters were of steel] and every window was barred by iron fasteners. Not a bar was twisted and not a shutter had been disturbed. Be- sides this, every door leading into the warehouse had been guarded by faithful watchmen who had been in the employ of the company for years and who were fully trusted. It was neither an inside nor an out- gide job. It is no wonder that the detective who was placed on the case said that it was too “spooky” for a healthy man to handle. Nevertheless, he handled it and in @ way that won the unreserved com- mendation of his superior officers. After he had interviewed all of the watchmen, he called the chief de- Mvery man into the office of the gtorage company and questioned him at length. After that he interviewed the man who received the goods when they came in at the front door. As a result of these two talks he began to gee a ray of light. He was told that while most of the customers of the house stored their stuff by the year or the month, there were cases where goods were only left for a week, and sometimes only a day at a time. the robbery was that most of the stolen articles were smal!. Quality rather than quantity seemea to be the watchword of the thieves. In this eomunection it may be said that the solution of the great mystery came exactly one hour after the police had been notified. ' “Tell me,” said the detective who was doing the investigat'nug, “what came into the warehouse just before closing time last night?” The receiving clerk pondered for a moment and then replied: “Two large packing boxes. They ö — — — — — — — | Our '# Telephone Number were brought here last night with the understanding that they would be taken away the first thing in the morning. The driver said he had missed the boat by which they were to be shipped and wanted to leare them hefe overnight insteaa of haul- ing them away to the other end of Brooklyn.” “Have they gone?” “Yes, they were taken away just after we opened. They .ou'ld not have gone more than twenty m:rutes ago. They were taken away in a truck.” The moment he heard tnese words the detective started everybody into action. That wagon must be traced at all hazards. By rare good fortune the policeman on the best had seen the team. The man on the next beat had also noticed it. In the end it was found backing up in front of an old shack near the river frcnt. The detective permitted the men to unload the truck. Then he hustled into the place with pistol ready. Those inside surren- dered at once. Securing hatchet and chisel, the detective proceeded to open the boxes. The first one con- tained the stolen gods. Wt.en the lid was taken off the second one a man crept out, dirty and disheveled. He had been smuggled into the warehouse in the box ana had food and drink to see him through the night. He had stolen che stuff and then crept back into the second box, which closed with an automatic lock. (Copyright, 1929.) Next Story—All on Account of a Bunch of Keys.

For ten days white men under direction of Fred Agee, superinten- dent of the Big Horn National Forest, have been fighting the fire, and the Indians have held back. Today Reg Pierce, farmer agent for the United States Indian department, banded to- gether a few of the more courageous Crows .and under their leadership he hoped. to conquer the Indians’ fear of the fire, and get at least 30 mem- bers of the tribe to aid in keeping the fire under coritrol; About one square mie of the canyon was burned | over.

Pettis, United States Army éngineer, resulted, in the bélief of those who attended, in the creation of much improved water facilities In and to the city. The meeting was called for the pur- pose of hearing information on the request of, the Claiborne-Annapolis Ferty Co. for the création of restrict- ed anchorage., Busineks men of the city, including Mayor Walter BZ.

William Halsey, the Naval Academy, while various representatives of water shipping interests of Baltimore, and Capt. Hudson, of the Tolchester Co., attended. Mr. Sherman, of the ferry company, stated that in some Casés ‘boats an- chored in the harbor refused to move even when requested. . All. agreed that some relief was. necessary: In the end the company was allotted a 300- foot channel to be marked off by buoys. Other channeis will be set aside for yachts.en route to and from Annapolis, £6 t no inconvenfence will be experténeéd in this respect.
