Gloating over his ill-gotten gain, the operator of the financial | speak-easy persistently broadens the scepe of his activities with an exhibition of daring and sheer. bravado born of experiences in which the victims of his nefarious schemes, in a preponderately large num- ber of cases, have refrained from public complaint. The bogus stock brokerage operator is a master student of human nature and he is keenly aware that the average man or woman is supersensitive in revealing himself as having been duped or made the butt even of a practical joke. He is alive to the ideal of the stolid respectability, and the ex- peorers of any shady transaction involving himself most assuredly would not add to his community’s evaluation of himself, especially if he lived in the average small town. The pseudo broker knows full well that the fleeced clieht usually abandons any thoughts of airing his troubles in his obviously. well- founded conviction that. his own credit and his own chances for suc- cess would be dangerously impaired, especially if he is in the role of an employe rather than that of an employer. —~ Thus it is the average man in thee average community who provides the choice prey for the vultures of the financial speakeasies. The procession is a lengthy-one and in it almost every walk of life is represented. For the ‘most’ part ‘they. are the small-town business man, the salaried man, the woman in the home, the man in the pulpit occasionally, the laborer, the teacher, the farmer, the populace of average people with a few hundred or a few thousand dollars treasured ¢ way often. Wall street and stock market op- erations have captured the imagina- .tion of a nation. A public conscious- hess for stock investments has been where the average man, imbued with the knowledge of almost overnight suc- cesses in the market by others, has been strengthened in the latent be. lief of his own powers to achieve what others before him have achieved.

FEDERAL EXECUTIVES PROPOSE NEW PLAN Employes Themselves to ~ Be Asked to Voice Their Attitude. SUCCESS TO DEPEND ON NUMBER ENLISTED Question of Making System Mandatory Arises; Phy- sical Tests Needless. A proposal that the Federal Gov- ernment establish and administer a plan of low-rate group or bianket insurance for its employes will be discussed at an official conference here September 6. The proposal is one of the most important ever ad- vanced in connection. with the Gov- ernment personnel, affecting as ‘t does every member of Uncle Sam's great army of workers, now number- ing more than a half million. The idea evidently was born at a meeting of the New York Federal Business Association, an organization composed of the “executives in charge of the various Federal offices in and near New York, and was suggested to Rear Admiral Rosseau the chief coordinator of the United States. Admiral Rosseau turned the sugges- tion over to Maj. Alfred H. Erck, chairman of the interdepartmental board on simplified office procedure.

Dixon, Assistant Sec- retary of the Interior, which was read here today by’that official at a meet- ing of the governors of the public land States. The President disclosed that he proposes to appoint a commission of nine or ten members, at least five of whom will] be of the public land States, to study the policies now be- ing pursued and the changes in ex- isting laws which he might recom- mend to Congress.

Maj. Erck himself has taxen no definite stand with regard to the pro- posal, an: he is careful to make it trying to impose anything upon vbhe employes against their wishes. So far, he says, no concrete plan has been drawn up. That Uncle Sam could sell group insurance at a lower rate tran ‘ny private insurance firm seems ‘0 be conceded.

Although the investigating com- mittee is entering into these public hearings in the belief that conditions at Gallinger Hospital are “satisfac- tory,” it is apparent from the plans of the body as outlined by its chair- man, W.

Berlin, Aug. 26 (A.P.).—German newspapers were jubilant today over the swift transpacific flight of the Graf Zeppelin from Tokyo to San Francisco. Many of them compared the time, 68 hours, with the fortnight required by the fastest steamers for the: same distance. Weather Reports Praised. Tageblatt said: “The passage of the Zeppelin from Tokyo to Logs Angeles — i sca wares seeee oe > transmission by American meteoro- logical stations and the admirable } i navigation by its officers and crew.” | Germania. called attention to the fact. that. the: Zeppelin covered .the greatest. distance over. opem sea ever accomplished by any &ir conveyance. Deutsche Zeitung compared the ac- complishment of the Graf,as the first airship to cross the Atlantic and PacifiC with the exploratory voyages of Drake and Magellan. “It is hoped," it continued, “that Germany soon will be able to construct Zeppelins meeting all requirements for trans- oceanic service without American financial] baéking. Not until a super- airship world service under the Ger- man flag is consummated will the dream of old Count Zeppelin be realized.” Minister of Transportation Steger- wald telegraphed Dr. Hugo Eckener and his crew on behalf of the gov- ernment sincere congratulations on “the completion by the Zeppelin of the most difficult stretch in the world flight, which is highly significant for the éntire fatherland that is proud of your work and confident of the suc- cessful issue of your flight.” that needs no explanation! $35 to $40 Haddington Suits & $23 PPDPL AE $45 to $50 Haddington Suits $28 Rogers Peet Suits Were $50 to $60 35 Were $65 to $75 ‘45 $9 50 to $3.50 Men’s Fine Shirts, $1.68 gaS4-t savattcanei?e. . 7 i we Btn se a - $1.50 and $1 Neckties...........68 $2.50 and $2 Neckties......

A meeting of the style show com- mittee of the local American Legion Post” was held last night in the George Mason Hotel for the purpose of receiving the report of the enter- tainment committee. The show will be held in the Armory the week be- ginning September 16, and the éen- tertainment committee has prepared a different program for each evening. Placards and posters advertising the show have been received and will be distributed in Alexandria and vicinity shortly after Labor Day. The local World War veterans who will attend | the State convention in Petersburg next week will also extend an invita- tion to veterans throughout the State to attend the local show. The Legion Post proposes to devote the profits of the style show to the fund for the restoration. of Gadsby’s Tavern, which work is being under- taken by a citizens’ committee, which has raised funds for the pur- chase of the property, which wil] be restored and presented to the Legion as a permanent memorial to the World War dead. The work of restoring the historic old tavern is progressing rapidly, practically all the interior and ex- terior work, with the exception of painting, having been completed. The painting, which will require the services of an expert, will be a du- plicate of the work done when the building was erected in 1752, samples of the original paint having been procured from the Metropolitan Mu- seum of Art in New York, where many of the original interior fittings are now installed. The old City Hotel Building, which adjoins Gadsby’s Tavern, and is a part of the ofiginal property, will be restored as s00n as funds for the purpose can be raised by the post. A part of this building will be convert- ed inte a museum, and the rear wing, on Cameron street, will be used as meeting rooms for the Legion Post and club rooms. A memorial room to the World War dead will be fitted up in the original building. A majority of the 75 Alexandria firemen who will attend the State Firemen’s convention in Lexington, the sessions of which open Wednes- day morning, will leave this morning by train. The local firemen, headed by the Citizers @and of 32 pieces, and accompanied by the Ladies’ Aux- iliary, of approximately 50 members, will march in the’ parade Thursday, which will be the big feature of the convention.

Va., Aug. 26 (A.P.).— Thirteen-year-old school girls, great- grandmothers and women whose ages rangé all the way in between, and even a few men, are taking advantage of the State health department's “Healthy Baby” correspondence course. According to Mrs. Jessie Wetzel Farris, R. N., director of the course, approximately 7,600 women, girls and men have enrolled since the corre- spondence bureau was organized in the health department July, 1923. The course is divided into two parts of six lessons each, the first part deal- ing with maternity and the second with infant welfare. In the Series, the students are taught vital lessons of health, affecting not only the lives of babies, but also of adults. Sees Great Improvement. No statistics have been correlated for the purpose of determining what effect the introduction of the course has had. on infant mortality, Mrs. Faris says, but from the numerous letters .received from mothers, in which the course is praised, she is of the opinion that a great improvement has been wrought in the conditions é6urrounding the infants whose par- ents have taken advantage of the course. Only a small portion of Virginia mothers have been reached so far by the course, she states, since there are approximately 55,000 births in the State each year, and the average num- ber of students a year has been less than 1,300. Starts New Team Dally. The correspondence school gtarts’a new team every day of the year, says Mrs. Faris, and is free to every citizen of Virginia. On competion of the course the student receives a certifi- cate attested by the director and Dr. Ennion G. Williams, State health com- missioner. , The course was made avallable to Virginians six years ago, when stu- dents of public health sought new means of curbing an astoundingly refreshing and absolutely pure.

But the unhappy outcome of this venture has apparently not dissuaded him from continuing in the bisiness. On the Eastern trip he lined up and spoke for none other than former Mayor Hylan and Gov. Franklin D. Roosevelt, * s* s ® Is spokesman’s utterance for Mr. Roosevelt. was the most important. It may, in fact, have a bearing on the next Demo- cratic presidential campaign. This shows that the Iowa senator is non- partisan when it comes to the spokes- manship business, He came out of the capitol at Al- bany.one day, breathed deeply of the bracing atmosphere and observed: “No wet will ever be President of the United States." Gov. Roosevelt just told me that he was convinced that if a referendum were taken to- morrow .-the drys would win. And Mr. Hylan told me the same thing in a conversation I had with him a few days ago.” Thus it will be seen that the sena- tor spoke for two men’ at once, an enlargement of the job when he ‘spoke for Mr. Hoover alone. tor Smith Wildman Brookhart, whether the senator and Gov, Roosevelt were discussing a na- tional referendum or a State one when the latter opined that the drys would win. The point is, and the po- litical dynamite for the New York Governor is, that he said the drys would win. There is dynamite in that statement because before the governor can ever be a serious Demo- cratic presidential possibility he must be elected Governor of New York again. There is a serious question as to whether the senator's statement of what he had told him gave the New York Governor any appetite. It must, instead, cause him all sorta of embarrassment. It would not ordinarily be so im- portant perhaps, were there not a de- cided feeling that the New York gov- ernor is turning dry, so to speak. * e*-+*s . & has never been developed HE outcome of the 1928 cam- paign was enough, of course, to dishearten any wet, or rather on* who has national aspirations, There are many who belieye that before 1932 will have wrung himself out. If this can be done successfully, viewed from the way the situation is now, it would seem that this would be the political thing to do. f But the governor should go easy in this transformation, would seem, until after his reelection next year. Therefore, it can be understood that Senator Brookhart’s disclosure of the conversation might be very empbDar- rassing. In fact, if the. senator does not use more Judgment in his unof- ficial spokesmanship business he is going to find many doors closed to him, And the senator is so naive and so honest that he will not understand the reason why. . ! JEWISH DEAD IN PALESTINE | RIOTS IS PUT AT NEAR 150 CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. en. It is assumed they at least equal those of the Jews. New attacks were made here to- forcements were rusHed in largest numbers, and in other Palestine cen- ters. This morning three more Jews were injured when Arabs exploded @ bomb in the old city. The dispen- sary of the Hadassah Hospital at. Heb-~- ron, maintained by the American Women’s Zionist organization, was burned. : The Jewish quarter, Nachlath Zion, Arabs, Armored cars have been rushed to the spot. The city is full of refugee from. the suburbs and the colonies. There is a scarcity of medical su and of food. The Jerusalem Jewish com- munal board has started a fund to maintain the refugees. Looting was going on. The houses of Dr. A. Levin- Epstein, an .American, and a Mr. Gor- don, director of the Angio-Palestine Bank here, were ransacked during the attack on the suburb Talpioth. 25 Jewish Workers Saved. Twenty-five Jewish workers in’ the Novomejski' Dead Sea project were brought safely to Palestine under 4 military convoy. Four Jewish workers employed in the construction of the Rockefeller Archeological Museum in Jerusalem were saved from «4 Moslem mob. A ¥roup of American Jews, resi- dents and visitors here, took refuge in the house. of the American con- sulate ahd in the building of the French Catholic convent. Hospital records here showed 8&8 dead of whom 59 are Jews. Two hundred and thirty-three injured persons were recorded. Reports reaching here this morn- ing show that the warfare is extend- ing throughout the country. The Jewish population of Haifa, the port city, was attacked. Three persons were killed and many were wounded. An attack on the suburb, Hadar Ha’Carmel. was re- pulsed. An appeal for help was re- ceived from the Jewish pioneer set- tlements in the neighborhood, situ- ated in the Valley of Jezreel. Reports were also received that new Arab demonstrations were held in Ramleh. Martial law was proclaimed in Tel Aviv,. the all-Jewish city, and in Jaffa, the neighboring city. A troop of 200 British soldiers was stationed at Tel. Aviv and. 70 civilians were drafted into the Tel Aviv. police service. Tite Jewish population was moved from the outskits to the center of the city. Armored Cars Ordered. Six armored cars were ordered from Bagdad and more favalry and in- fantry were asked from Cairo.. It was impassible to ascertain the number of those killed and injured in. Tel Aviv during the assaulta. The trouble started Sunday when the Moslem Arabs sought to march through Tel Aviv to bury an Arab who wes killed .in the fighting. A number of the Arabs attempted to break into the city proper. The British ‘police’ fired... Six Arabs were killed Fighting also took place in several quarters. of Jaffa.

Official quarters believed now that British land and sea forces had arrived, the authorities would speedily have the situation under control. . The colonial office tonight issued ‘a statement admitting the extreme gravty of events and confirming. the killing of 45 Jews and seriously wounding of 59 at Hebron. Their statement was based on a report from the acting high commissioner of Palestine which, however, did not ex- tend beyond the occurrences of early Sunday morning. a Looting and fighting still went on in the suburbs of Jerusalem although the city itself was comparatively quiet. The contagion of violence had spread to other cities. _ MacDonald Seeks Advice. Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald continued to consult those competent to advise the government. on its dif- ficult position. Today it was the turn of Viscount Cecil of Chelwood, the British statesman perhaps best versed in League of Nations affairs and who will be a delegate to the assembly next week. The premier algo had another long talk with First Lord of Admiralty this afternoon. As yet there has been no official confirmation of the report that Lord Reading, a distinguished Jew who has filled important government posts. would shortly lead a special mission to Palestine to seek solution of the age-old race’ problem. The British public was more than surprised at the suddenness of devel- opments Saturday requiring such striking display of British military and naval power. Up to that: time reports from Palestine had told only of minor rioting growing out of the perrennial disputes connected with the Wailing Wall. This wall has been the symbol ‘of deep religious and racial antagonisms in the struggle be- tween Islamism and Judaism, whose echoes have been reverberated throughout the vast Moslem domin- fons of Great Britain. Conflict of Long Standing. The conflicting claims by Moslems and Jews devolving on the Walling Wall are of long standing and have been brought to the League of Na- tions, but have never been settled. The wall itself belongs to the Jews and has been used as a place of. wor- ship for centuries, but the pavement fronting’ the ‘wall.and the ground on which it stands are Arab property, The Arabs’ have refused to sell the pavement and site. Complaints have been made here that the late Conservative govern- ment, through neglect to take : the the seeds of the present trouble. The general explanation of the dispatch of a fleet of warships and troops in such apparently excessive strength is that this action was necessary to maintain British prestige not only in Palestine, but throughout the Moslem do- minions of Britain, - The attitude of the British govern- ment has been that the site of the Wailing Wall is undoubtedly Moslem property and that Jews have only a proscriptive right of access. Official Statement. The British colonial offce today is- sued thé following communique re- lating to the situation in Palestine. formation available Sunday morning, the acting high commissioner states the old city of Jerusalem was then quiet but there still was some desult- ory firing and incendiarism in. the new quarter. “The situation in the Jewish out- lying quarters and suburbs of Jeruse- lem was not yet undér control and there was still some looting with cas- ualties. ' “The Jewisl garden city of Talpiot has been temporarily evacuated by the inhabitants. “In the Hebron Saturday there was an-attack by an ‘Arab mob on the small Jewish quarter.

The editorial follows: INTROSPECTION. It is an old’ and very true saying that it Is never late to mend. The: .investigation of Gallingor Hospital, a city institution, will be conducted by the Welfare Board of the District. The Welfare Board is of eminent citizens. The .members are there because they are public spirited and mindec along Humani- tarian lines. No better recommenda- tion for the board could there be than that its chairman is John Joy Edson, that patriarch of all Washing- ton.ens who love their felowmen. But how, let us ask with all due respect—how does it happen that the Welfare Board does not already know about conditions at Gallinger? The conditions were not made yesterday. nor a week nor a month ago. They have been developing over a long composed period of time. Why should the Welfare Board wait for the, situation to mount to the proportions of a public scandal? Certainly the board Nad a duty, a very distinct duty, to perform in the premises. That, is what the board is for—to see to it that conditions such as those at Gallinger are not allowed to exist or even be created. The Welfare Board can not be en- tirely blameless.

Fredericksburg, Va., Aug. 26 (A.P.). Did Pvt. John W. Irwin, Company A, Ninth Virginia Cavalry, die the death of a spy at the hands of a Union firing squad or did a letter’ written by Rop- ért E. Lee allow him to be held as an honorable prisoner of war? ‘The question arises with the offer of E. T. Stuart, treasurer of the Girard Trust Co., of Philadelphia, to give to the Robert E. Lee Memorial Founda- tion, for use in Stratford Hall, two framed letters written by Gen. Lee to Gen. A, E, Burnside, “commanding United States forces opposite Fred- ericksburg.” One of them tells of the dramatic incident in which Pvt, Irwin, 18-year-old blue-eyed native of Staf- ford. County, figured. The other is a request that Capt. E. P. Lawton’s wife be allowed to visit her husband, who was wounded and @ prisoner. Both dated, “Headquar- rs Army of Northern Virginia, Dec. 27, 1862,” reflect Lee’s disposition to stop, out of kindness, to attend ‘to small details which might make others happy. The letter concerning Irwin tells an entire story, save, for the ending, which possibly is available in the musty files of the War Department or may be told by some individual who remembers or had heard of the tnci- dent. The letter reads: “General: I have been informed that Private John W. Irwin, Company A, Ninth Virginia Cavalry, has been captured by some of your troops, and is now being tried_as a spy. m- ing, if this information is correct, that the object of the investigation is to ascertain the truth, I have thought proper to make known to you the facts connected with the absence of Private in from his regiment, as reported to me by Col. Beale, the Ninth Vir- ¢. Gen. W. H. F. e was at Brandy Station, in Culpeper County, Private Irwin received permission from the by commander to visit his home in Stafford County, to procure a fresh horse. "This is a permission comm given in similar cases, and at the time it was not known that the place to which Private Irwin wished to pro- ceed was within the lifes of your army. ; “Private Irwin is described to me as follows: ‘Small figure, about 5 feet 9 inches high, complexion dark, hair’ mahogany, eyes blue, age about 18 years, and manner rather spright- ly” Vr ob’t serv't, “R.

The country is shocked at the news that 12 American Jewish boys have been killed and 30 wounded in the at- tacks which the Arabs have suddenly unloosed against the Jews in Palestine in a fanatical outbreak of holy-war fervor originating in incidents at the century-old Wailing Wall. How deep-rooted the trouble will prove to be or how far the Moslem re- ligious uprising will spread are ques- tions of grave concern. The British government’s administration of the mandated territory and the future of the Zionist movement for a Palestine homeland are necessarily involved. New burdens of great weight are automati- cally imposed upon Premier MacDonald, whose duty it is to check the Moslem movement with military and naval force, no matter how extensively or dangerously it spreads. Meanwhile, the immediate duty of the government of the United States is to secure the maxi- mum protection for its nationals. President Hoover has already made the first move to this end, though the means at his disposal are woefully in- adequate. Secretary Stimson has an- nounced that no American warships will besent to Near Eastern waters, despite appeals from various quarters. Ameri- cag has no w arships within striking digtance. The United States Navy formerly maintained a squadron of swift destroyers on the Mediterranean station for emergency protection, of American life and property, but at présent no vessels are available. The UJS. S. Raleigh, which might have been near at hand, is en route to America bearing the body of Admiral Niblack. ecretary Stimson has_ therefore found it necessary to appeal to the Brit- ish government to protect American lives. He has cabled Ambassador Dawes to ask the British government to take immediate and effective steps to prétect American lives and property. Premier MacDonald had already put British naval and military forces in mo- tion. The fact that the Labor govern- ment criticized its predecessor for send- ing naval forces to the Far East did not deter Mr. McDonald from acting with dispatch in the present emergency. Tix British policy of force, backed by trdops, airplanes and cruisers, is to be invoked to whatever extent proves neéessary. The repercussions of the Palestine outbreak will be felt in disarmament discussions. Britain is warned of the need of cruisers and still more cruisers to protect her far-flung interests, at the very time when Mr. MacDonald and Mr. Dawes are negotiating over a curtail- ment of cruisers in order to save ex- pense. Mr. Dawes-has wisely said that public opinion will really determine the measure of naval reduction, and British public opinion is certain to take note of this latest demonstration of unexpected need of British ships of war. Secretary Stimson yesterday com- mented upon the “satisfactory news” that British troops had arrived at the scene of disturbance and that British It is grati- fying to be assured that the union jack will protect Americans, in the absence of yessels flying the Stars and Stripes. Nevertheless, the dispatch of an Ameri- can warship to Jaffa, prepared to send bluejackets and marines to Jerusalem in case of need, might have a beneficial moral effect. No part of the world is so remote that the protec arm of the United States can not h out to its own people, if ships are available for hqperpese. MAIL CONTRACTS. Latest developments in the controversy of the. . Postoffice Department and shipping in- terete over mail contracts indicate that Con- tes / 7 A REY Wee — — —— — evens will take a hand in the matter, A movement is on foot to amend the Jones- White act so that there.can be no possibility of misunderstanding the intent of Congress. The prevailing sentiment is that the action of the Interdepartmental Board in withhold- ing mail contracts is a violation of the spirit, if not the letter, of the act. But it may be necessary to amend the.law to make effec- five the support which Congres 3 intended to give the merchant marine. In passing the Jones-White act recoznized that a subvention is essential fo construction and maintenance of a perma- nent merehant marine. But it failed to pro- vide specifically that mail contracts )must be awarded to private concerns which /purchase shipping lines from the Government. The Mississippi Shipping Co. recently purchased the service between the Gulf.of Mexico and the east coast of South America. The com- pany was underbid for the mail contract and if the lowest bid is accepted, it will no doubt have to turn back its ships to the Govern- ment. It is suggested that the Jones-White act be amended so that it will be mandatory for a- mail contract to accompany all sales of Shipping Board services. Nearly all pur- chasers of Government ships: have received contracts for periods of ten years. With this assurance of an income they have been able to make definite plans for new vessels. All companies that have taken over services from the Shipping Board have done so with the understanding that a mail contract would be forthcoming. Now that the United States Lines has been refused a contract and the bid of the Mississippi company has not been accepted, it will be difficult for the Shipping Board to dispose of any more vessels until assurance of Government cooperation is given. Congress should not heSitate to en- force its policy. Congress A MAGNIFICENT ACHIEVEMENT. Dr. Eckener, commander of the Graf Zep- pelin, expects to complete his round-the-world cruise by returning to Lakehurst, N. J., Wed- nesday night. With the arrival of the dirigi- ble at Los Angeles a number of records have been broken, and the first globe-circling flight by lighter-than-air craft has proved far more successful than was anticipated. Neither the Arctic climate of Siberia nor the storms of the Pacific proved a barrier to the giant craft. There will be nothing spectacular about the 2.500-mile flight from Los Angeles to Lake- hurst. The most hazardeus parts of the voy- age have been completed. The 6,600-mile hop from Friedrichshafen to Tokyo, which was considered the most difficult, brought the Graf a new record for nonstop flights. Two new records were hung up by the 5,400-mile dash from Tokyo to Los Angeles. This is the first time that à nonstop flight across the Pacific has been made and the only time that the distance between the coasts of Japan and America has been covered in 68 hours. This is less than one-third the time required by the fastest steamer, and is four hours less than the minimum time set for the trip by Dr. Eckener. The flight across the continent is expected to take less' than 48 hours. This will bring the Zeppelin to the completion of its round- the-world course in'three weeks. This record offers a rather sharp contrast with that of the United States Army expedition, which took 25 weeks to circle the globe by airplane. The actual flying time of the Army planes was 15 days and 6 hours. Allowing ample .ime for completion of the Zeppelin’s trip, it appears that the actual flying time will be less than 12 days. The distance covered will be ap- proximately 18,700 miles and the average speed nearly 70 miles per hour. The dirigible has made excellent time without taking chances on adverse weather. The achievement of Dr. Eckener is certain to stimulate interest in lighter-than-air craft, and commercial developments in the near future may be expected. The airship has been given a severe test and has magnificently proved its value. The flight will become one of the memorable events in the history of air- craft, the influence of which can only be measured years hence. A FARM TALK. In an address at the Iowa State Fair in Des Moines yesterday afternoon C. B. Den- ham, a member of the Federal Farm Board, stressed the necessity of cooperation among the farmers and pointed. out that only through a policy of pulling together can the farmers hope for aid from the Government. The board was created too late to accom- plish much in aid of the grain growers this season, because it was found that while more than 40% of the crop was already controlled by individual cooperative marketing groups in their local communities, effective control was lost when the commodity left the local pool or elevator for the central markets. To overcome this loss of control the board called these various groups together, with the re- sult that, through a committee appointed by these individual organizations, a great cen- tral organization is in process of formation which will ultimately enable the producers, with the aid of the Farm Board, to control the marketing of the bulk of all grain pro- duced. Mr. Denham, addressing himself to condi- tions which confront the Iowa farmer, par- ticularly because Iowa is more deeply inter- ested in hog raising than any other State, pointed out one of the causes of the depres- sion from which those farmers have suffered most severely. ‘That cause, paradoxical as it may seem, is the overabundant weight of the individual porker. The lowa hogs aver- age too much fat. In 1926 41,060,000 hogs fetched more than 49,000,000 sold in 1928. In the former year 11,900,000 of the ani- mals inspected and slaughtered at the pack- ing houses averaged 255 pounds each, as against a general average of 230 pounds, which means that these hogs produced ap- proximately 275,000,000 pounds of fat meat and lard more than the like number pro- duced in the former year. The Iowa farm- ers “‘swapped corn for lard.’ when the corn was worth more than the pork produced from it. “The surplus problem and its cumbersome load, earried by the farmers individually,”’ said Mr. Denham, ‘can be solved only by its control through organized marketing. Un- less the farmer in the local cooperative takes advantage of the opportunity now afforded him by placing the different agricultural commodities into national marketing associa- tions to help himself, he will continue to be like the weary traveler with a heavy burden on his back who asked a passing truckman for a ride, and after having climbed aboard, continued to carry his burden on his back.” The Federal Farm Board is out to help the farmer, but wants him to show a disposi- tion to help himself when the way is pointed out. — —— NEW YORK’S GREAT PLAN. Gov. Roosevelt has outlined a compre- hensive regional planning scheme for the en- tire State of New York. This ts pérhaps the first time that an American State has under- taken to investigate its resources with a view to scientific exploitation. The purpose behind the survey is to discover the possibili- ties of every section so that the entire area may be utilized to the best advantage. If 10v. Roosevelt can secure the support of the Republican legislature his plan will attract interest from all parts of the country. It is only within recent years that city planning has been extensively practiced. Yet no city of any considerable size tolerates hap- hazard growth today. Well organized com- munities offer more attractive homes, more convenient business centers, and befter in- dustrial quarters, The advantages of city planning are innumerable. Why would not. Similar benefits result from application of. these principles to larger areas? The New York plan includes a soil survey which will cover every farm in the State. This information will be supplemented by complete weather data, so that the agricul- tural possibilities of each locality may be ascertained. The third step will be a survey of forest resources and classification of land for agricultural, forest, recreational and resi- dential purposes. Data as to the adaptation of land to orchards, gardens, pdstures, etc., will be gathered. The final project will be a study of milk production under the existing systems of dairying. The United States has a wealth of natural resources which are the inheritance of all the American people. Some of these resour- ces are exploited wisely, and others are being wasted. Millions of acres of land are culti- vated unprofitably, because the crops planted are not adapted to the soil or climate. If all agriculture, tumbering, mining, &c¢., could be placed on an efficiency basis the increased profits would be enormous. If States were in a position to formulate a policy on the development of such Ihmited resources as petroleum fields and on such diminishing resources as forests the resulting economy would be incalculable. The regional plan- ning idea should hasten the time when each natural resource will be conserved and de- veloped to the best advantage of the people. DUAL NATIONALITY. It is difficult for a person to give alle- giance to more than one country, yet he may be claimed by two nations at the same time. Laws regulating. citizenship are made within each country, and the statutes of one nation may differ radicallyefrom another. It is not unusual for an American citizen who was born in a foreign country or of foretgn par- ents in .this country to find that the old country rétains #'claim upon him. A case bf this kind has been brought to the attention of the State Department by Joseph C. Fehr, Washington attorney. Mr. Fehr emigrated from Switzerland at the age of 10 years and hecame an American citizen by reason of his father’s naturalization. He served in the United States Army in. France during the World War, but now he has found that he owes military taxes to Switzerland for failure to render military service to that country since his eligibility in 1915. Under the law of Switzerland he is still a citizen of that republic. Thousands of persons in the United States are in the same status of dual nationality. Mr. Fehr called at the State Department to see what could be done about it. He was informed that should he go to Switzerland as the legal right of that country to his alle- giance could not be denied by the United States. He was advised to file with the Swiss Legation a declaration renouncing his Swiss citizenship and a request to be relieved from payment of the military tax. It was indicated that the State Department would make “appropriate representations” in his behalf, but since the United States has no naturalization treaty with Switzerland the matter must be left entirely to the discretion of the authorities at Berne. The case illustrates the need for naturali- zation treaties. Such treaties have been negotiated with Germany, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Denmark, Hungary, Norway, Portu- gal and Sweden. Natives of these countries who are now American citizens may revisit the land of their birth without fear of an- noyance. But natives of France, Italy, Jugo- slavia, Spain, Turkey, Poland, Roumania and other nations besides Switzerland are liable for military taxes or possible arrest if they revisit their old homes. It would seem the part of wisdom for the State Department to negotiate naturalization treaties with every country that sends immigrants to America. — — — — — — — — Cleveland has just voted for the third time in two years on abandonment of its city-manager form of government.

Now if some one would just invent a substitute for lightning many a tree in American forests would be saved. A New York man suggests that useless automobiles be dismembered and shipped West to be built into the flood-control levies of the Mississippi. Why not add the count- less tons of unread speeches of congressmen? J Women in London are demanding a law which would entitle them to housekeepers’ wages from their husbands. In America husbands would be glad to get such a bar- gain, Saxophones are suggested to end prison rioting and maybe they would if a cordof of saxophonists were stationed around prison walls.

Motorboating and canoeing (for the more adven- ‘turous spirits) rival the popu- larity of swimming parties and picnics. Private yachts skim gracefully across the blue expanse of the Annapolis Harbor, carry- ‘ing visitors to various points along the Maryland shore. The roads in and out of the town are thronged with the clang “and bustle of motorists from Wash- ‘ington, ahd the aforementioned Annapolis felines are fortunate to éscape with nothing worse than a bruised tail of a singed whisker.

POST: TUESDAY. — * 492 ee = ee IMINORITIES TOOPEN RECOGNITION DRIVE Groups to Launch Campaign Before League in Try for Rights. MANY DELEGATES SENT Geneva, Aug. 26 (N.Y.WN.S.)—A determined drive to secure through the League of Nations recognition of the rights of racial minorities will be launched here next month Repre- sentatives of 30,000,000 minority resi- dents of fourteen different countries are now holding their sixth annual conference in Geneva ‘to prepare a united program of action to be taken by them during the September as- sembly of the league. There are indications that the new ~procedure of the league council for dealing with minority complaints, which was formulated ac Lugano, Geneva and Madrid meetings of the council, will not be considered suf- ficiently effective by the spokesmen for the minorities. Changes in this procedure suggested by Gustave Stresemann, German foreign minis- ter, and Raoul Dandurand, Canadian minister without portfolio, will . be accepted as steps in the right direc- tion. The reply of the Catalonians to Premier Primo de Rivera’s outburst against Stresemann for the latter’s so-called “indiscretion” at ‘Madrid, when the German foreign minister intimated that perhaps Spain has its own minorities problem, has been to send to the present minorities con- gress the largest delegation that has ever come here from Catalonia. Seven prominent Catalonians, representing all sections of Catalonian life, are present. German minorities form the largest racial group represented here. There are delegations representing them from Czechoslovakia, Italy, Esthonia, Latvia, Roumania, Jugoslavia, Poland and Hungary. Jewish delegations come from Poland, Czechoslovakia, Roumania, Bulgaria Latvia and Lithuania. Despite Czechosl@vakian ‘*laims that there are no minorities diffi- culties in that country delegates rep- resenting recognized groups of Rus- sians, Jews, Germans and Hungarians have brought their troubles to the conference. The league is closely following developments in Palestine. Since the terms of the Palestine mandate obli- gate Great Britain to preserve order, no action will be taken here unless the situation indicates that. safe- guards have been neglected. The sit- uation will remain completely in the hands of the mandatory power un- less complaints are raised in the per- manent mandates commission, which does not reassemble until after the league assembly has adjourned. —— Rio —— HEADS.

Small Towns Worked. Big game ever is alluring, but the shysters have learned that the aggre- gate of the small investments, es- pecially from-the men and the women in the distant little towns who have neither the extra money nor time to make trips to check upon their in- vestments, prove far superior in every way. Thus the telephones in the “boiler houses” of these crooks pro- vide the logical medium to present and close a steedy deal. Most of the duped ones may well kiss their money a fond adieu. Even if the more stubborn suckers go to the trouble to make a journey to the fake companies they are met with delays, obstacles and an endless chain of procrastinations that in the bulk of instances have the desired effect of sending the discontents back home with nothing to show for their added expense. Or the financial sharpsters may veer off on another tack and lure the trimmed investor into. another guadi- ly portrayed fraud that can have only the customary finale of failure. There is always the open road to litigation. Not infrequently, more often with Washingtonians rather than the vic- tims from the contiguous country- side, lawyers are sought as a last re- sort, but the average sucker hesitates to go to such lengths where a further expenditure will be necessary. It often happens that while the victim can give a mass of facts and figures indicating beyond the shadow of a doubt that a swindle has been perpe- trated, the statements that have been made to him and the representations of the bogus firm, made to him with- out a witness, will not stand up in a legal suit. Extra-Legal Action. Pressure has been* brought to bear in a number of instances in the past two or three years in Washington by reputable civic agencies and others to force the speakeasy brokers to make at least some restitution. A typical case of this kind is that of a moderately well to do farmer liv- ing near Staunton, Va., who one day a little more than three years ago received a telephone call. A pleasant voice informed him that the speaker was a representative of such-and-such a brokerage company in Washington with an attractive pian to make some money for him. In a subtle manner the “boiler house” operative eased into the conversation the name of the proffered stock, told the Virginian of the corporation’s earnings and poten- tialities, and assured him that he ex- pected an early rise in the market. The farmer, promptly convinced by the plausible sales talk, was influenced to make a substantial investment which totaled about $35,000, a sum considerably more than usually finds ite way at one time in the strong- boxes af these crooks. Recently the farmer, after excep- tional success in his market opera- tions with the Washington company from his home, showed an amount approximating $60,000. For reasons best known to him, the farmer by letter requested astatement from the brokerage house of his account, ex- pressing his desire to get out of the market.

After an original investment in the neighbor- hood of $2,500 and a profit which swelled the entire amount to about $3,000 during the course of several months, the man wrote to his brok- ers for a statement. Weeks brought no reply to another letter or two and he sought to obtain satisfaction by telephone. Unable to pierce the bar- rier of continued delays, he finally made an expensive trip here and, for- tunately for him, he succeeded by threats of exposure in forcing the company to bégin the payment of his claim.

FOUR ARE ARRESTED IN HUTCHINSON THEFT CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. elry broadcast at the time of the rob- bery, August 10. The missing pieces, not found in the possession of the Negroes, but which detectives hope to trace through admissions of the pair, are two diamond rings, dlamond ear- rings, a black pearl, a large diamond and pearl pin, and a gold bag. Upon communication with chief of Police John 8S. Welch, of Beverly Farms, police were informed that Mr. and Mrs. Hutchinson sailed iast Thursday for Europe. Their daughter, Mrs. John 8. Tyson, from whose bed- room the burglar stole a diamond studded watch and a diamond clasp pin, will come to New York tomor- row with Chief Welsh to identify the ewelry. According to detectives, both Ne- groes denied that they had stoien the jewelry from the Hutchinson summer home. They were given the jewelry by a man named Young, they said, whom they met in Boston, and who instructed them to bring the jewels to New York and to see that no one got the pieces away from them At the time of the robbery, police strongly suspected Arthur Barry, of Worcester, former member of the “Boston Billy” Williams gang who escaped two weeks before from Au- burn Prison, where he was doing time for an $86,000 jewel robbery at tue Long Island home of Jesse L. Liver- more. Today when pictures of Barry were shown to Beaucaire. and Salley, they told police they. bore a strong re- semblance to the man in Boston wnhv entrusted them with the valuable loot. ‘Detectives, however, are in- clined to doubt this story.

The Department of Agriculture has completed its plans to ask the special session of Congress for an emergency appropriation of $26,000,000 to carry on eradication of the Mediterranean fruit fly in Florida, where the pest has menaced the entire fruit and vegetable industry. Secretary Hyde said yesterday it would take that amount to finance the intensive campaign which will be necessary before the fly is com- pletely stamped out. He said the department had no desire to control the fruit fly, as that “would mean living with it, and we want it com- pletely wiped off the continent.” Present eradication measures. and the inspection and certification of fruit and vegetables placed in inter- state shipment will be continued and intensified. The border inspection designed to prevent the carrying of the. fly into other States will be in- creased. Agriculture ‘Department officials, particularly those in the plant quar- antine and control administration, have been apprehensive of the spread of the fly from Florida into neigh- boring States during the last summer ahd stringent measures have been taken to prevent such spread. With the coming of winter it is felt that greater attention can be given to eradication as colder weather to the northward will act as a deterrent to spread. Dr. C. L. Marlatt, chief of the quar- antine administration, held two long conferences with Secretary Hyde yes- terday. He would not comment on what occurred, but it was understood at the Secretary's office that he and Hydenhad put the eyes touches on the request for If the $26,000,000 is mek available it will bring the sum appropriated for fighting the pest to $30,500,000, as $4,500,000 was made available soon after infestation was found near Or- lando last winter.

She was charged with assault on Elizabeth Simms and Charles Simms, both colored. Testimony was to the effect that the prisoner livés with the Simmses and went home Saturday night in an in-' ebriated condition. She resented efforts to put her to bed, and pick- ing up a knife’ cut both, it was testified. Judge BR. E. masttingty. read the woman's record from the bench and at the conclusion sald; “Well, add another year to the record.” This shows that most of the wom- an’s appearances in Police Court are traceable to whisky, and that | she had been, out of jail only a few days. Canadian Police Seize Rum Plane Pilot Arrested as 33 Cases of Liquor Are Being Put in Ship. Windsor, Ontario, Aug. 26 (A.P.).— Royal Canadian mounted police and officers of the Canadian otustoms pre- ventive service captured a rum-run- ning airplane today and arrested its pilot, also taking into custody. a truck from which 33 cases of liquor were being transferred to the plane.

QUICK SOLUTION URGED Chicago, Aug. 26 (A.P.).—Members of the committee detailed to organize the Farmers’ Nationa] Grain Corpora- tion at the ‘behest of the Federal Farm Loan Board struggled today between two plans and wéfe reported, after several hours of discussion, be far from an agreement. Cooperatives, it was understood, strenuously opposed a tentative plan proposed by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture because it would result in loss of identity to the stand- ing farm marketing groups, which would be merged into the gigantic new corporation. The Department of Agriculture plan calls for the issuance of $20,- 000,000 worth of stock in the new organization to the farmers and the various representative organizations, with. the.proposed corporation acting as the Soaring house for the entire field Another plan, designed by the Farmers Union Terminal Association, and favored by the cooperatives, would make the grain corporation a holding company with the already organized marketing groups buying the stock in their own names. It was said this plan, however, has re- ceived no encouragement from mem- bers of the Parm Board. M. W. Thatcher, one of the leaders in’ the- movement to retain identity for marketing groups, ahnounced he was authorized by the Union Termi-/ nal Association to purchase $1,000,000 worth of stock in the proposed cor- poration if the organization’ é6et up. should meet with his approval. Many members of the committee, fearing the farmer will be caught m a market Mump this year, expressed desire for speedy. organization and} functioning of the corporation. There were predictions, however, that. the committee would not effect an organ- ization before tomorrow night as was hoped. W. H.

BELL N last Saturday afternoon a O young man slipped quietly into Washington and hied himself from the station directiy to the Fox Theater where he viewed the [first public presentation he had ever wit- nessed of “Why Leave Home?” the feature talking and singing picture for the current week. His attention, it might have been noted, was cen- tered upon the audience and its re- action to the entertainment unfolded before it. instead of upon the musi- calized version of “The Cradle Snatchers,” an hilarious stage farce of a few seasons back. With that he was fairly familiar. The young man was Raymond Can- non, the director who made the pic- ture, bent on determining from the Gemeanor of the cash customers whether or not he really “had some- thing.” As 1 feebly attempted to intimate in Monday’s review, it is my unim- portant opinion that he has. After an interesting and profitable con- versation of some hour-and-a-half or two hours with Mr. Cannon, I am be- ginning tO suspect why. ERE is a young innovator who, in making his first dialogue and singing picture—“Why Leave Home?” is it—violated all the rules. The only thing he heard from the “sound experts” and accoustical engineers as his work progressed was. “You can’t do that.” So he went ahead and did ft. Occasionally he was compelled to do it thelr way, in addition to his own, just to save their faces in case his ideas turned out to be not so good—which they never did It is my conviction that Mr. Can- non is wholly correct in his conten- tion that a screen. production, whether is be audible or mute, should first of all be a motion picture. He operated on this thoroughly sane theory in making the laughing hit now on view. His primary purpose was to score his “story points” and preserve that prime essential of all camera drama, naturalness of both player and action. The microphones he placed where he thought they ought to be to do the most good and then forgot them, letting sound reproduction take care of itself. That is the first thing they told him he couldn't do. And because he did it, “Why Leave Home?” is the first picture I have ever seen in which volume of sound diminishes as its source recedes, in natural proportion to the degrees of movement, and inereases in direct ratio with the nearness of a close- up. Mr. Cannon calls it sound per- spective. A better name for it is common sense. There are several unusual shots in the picture in which Mr. Cannon takes a deal of pride, not on ac- count of the angles for their own sakes, but because to secure them he was impelled to devise new me- chanical methods that stand as val- dare say, from now on. > uablé contributions to the art of picture making. One is a noiseless, traveling cam- era crane, which he invented arid had made at trivial expense. So silent in operation that it makes no impres- sion upon even the nearest and most sensitive microphone ahd requires Only one man for successful opera- tion. OU haven't heard much about Raymond Caftinon, despite the fact that he has lived in and around Hollywood for some fifteen years or 80, You will hear more, I With noth- ing beyond his present accomplish- ment, his career still is interesting. Born in Long Hollow, Tenn., just over the line from Virginia, Ray Cannon grew to boyhood as a typical Cumberland Mountain hill-billy. His father was a Baptist circuit rider, so Ray’s first occupation was that of Baptist preacher and exhorter. He confesses that he was an evangelist of the emotonal type and put on “quite a show” when he once got warmed to his theme. Craving a more comprehensive edu- cation than the hill country promised to afford, the junior Cannon crashed the outside world and was in turn newspaper reporter, actor and finally, | drifting to the West Coast, screen /§ writer for various producing organi- zations. Picture direction inevitable eventuation. On the side, he is a gentleman farmer. His avocation, the natural outgrowth of the instinct implanted im his nature by the early farm life in the mountain country, is agricultural experimentation, which he pursues on the largé acreage property he owns in one of the fertile California valleys. The first thing he wanted to do, after having assured himself that his picture was no dud, was to take a drive outside the city “where — are trees.” But with all this, strang things have happened to that early Baptist faith. Among his other hobbies has been the reasonably clésée study of the religious and philosophies of the world, from which he has, in his own words, evolved a stanch and profound paganism. Mr. Cannon is a Buddhist. was the Child Thrown From Auto Seat. Jack Taylor, 4 years old, of Dunn Loring, Va., received a Jacerated fore- head yesterday morning, when he was thrown off the seat of an automobile driven by his mother, Mrs. Florence Taylor, 81 years old, at Seventh and FP streets northwest, when she was forced to halt her car suddenly.

I “Parking With Peggy” ) | ) | IWRC Will | Tell of Graf At Lakehurst McNamee and Lynch to Describe the Arrival at | Hangar Tomorrow; Final Details of Event Now Being Arranged. Following the elaborate description of the arrival and landing of the Graf Zeppelin at Los Angeles and the transmission of speeches by the of- ficers and passengers, another broad- cast built around the arrival of the dirigible at the Lakehurst hangar is being planned. While full details have not yet been worked out, the National Broadcast- ing Co. expects to eclipse the .two previous arrivals at Lakehurst. It is expected that the Graf Zeppelin will reach the Atlantic Coast about cusk tomorrow. Whatever the time of ar- rival, however, the broadcasting equipment of the National Broadcast- ing Co. will be set up-in the hangar and all programs set aside so that a Nation-wide audience may have a part in the triumphant finish of the flight. Graham McNamee and William Lynch, “the flying announcer” will probably be assigned to give the graphic description from the hangar. In the meantime, the radio audi- ence will probably be kept in touch with the movements of ‘the Graf through the usual bulletins inter- spersing the reguiar programs, “In these days when we hear 50 much about the diction of radio an- nouncers, most people are apt to for- get that clarity is equally important in a singer,” said Gustave Haenschen, director of the Palmolive Orchestra. “For that reason, I believe that every aspirant for = microphone honors should carefully study elocution as well as voice culture. “To a certain extent,” Haenschen continued, “it is true that a singer’s volce may be thoroughly enjoyable and possess rare tonal beauty even though his or her audience is unable to understand the lyrics. In the Gase of many grand opera stars and all too many headliners of current musi- cal revues, such is the case. But with the radio performer it is differ- ent. “The public wants to understand the words as well as hear the music. To my mind the distinctness of his enunciation in the songs he sélects is one of the reasons for Paul Oliver's Nation-wide popularity with the audl- ences. Every word he utters before the microphone goes out over the air, clear as a bell, and is reproduced by fine receiving sets exactly as he sings his verses in the broadcast studio.” As a‘ result, it is said that Paul Oliver’s weekly fan mail contains ‘many ~hundreds of requests to sing songs which have appealed to radio fans because of the sentiment he has expressed in the words. The Cleveland Police Department has filed with the Radio Commission an application for permigsion to cre- ate a radio crime detection and crim- inal apprehension service employing short waves. Similar petitions have been filed with the Radio Commission by other cities, including Chicago, which dutlined elaborate plans for a radio system to increase the speed and efficiency of police work. Channels that would enable the Cleveland police headquarters to com- municate with cruising automobiles and dispatch them to the scenes of crime are sought ig the application.

It is not so generally known that cure of lip cancer is the rule in properly run in- stitutions. By cure we mean not only that the disease has been made to disappear, but that at the end of five years it has not returned or, if it has, the returning growth has been Speedily cured. New York Staterhas an old and well established cancer institute: at Buf- falo. Dr. B. F. Schreiner has recently reported the results of treatment of 173 cases of lip cancer treated be- tween 1914 and 1924. The cases treat- ed in 1924 have been under observa- tion five years since they were cured. Those treated prior to that time have been longer under observation. Most of these cases were treated either with X-rays or radium or both. The method of use has varied as a result of experience. In 92 out of each 100 cases the cancer was temporarily cured. It dis- appeared from the lip. However, that figure was too good to be true. Many of the cases were rather advanced and e had been badly neglected. Some day men may be alert minded and so intelligent that 90 per cent of the lip cancers may be cured and stay 50, but that day has’not yet arrived. this experience over 20 per cent of the growths returned. In ‘63 per cent of the cases, or more than two- thirds of the entire number, the treated patients were well for five to twelve years after the cure. A con- siderable number who had cancers return were cured by treatment the second time. Some have died from intercurrent diseases in no way re- lated to cancer. These experiences prove the curability of Up cancer. It remains only for the patients and thelr -doctors to apply the known facts. Only four of these cases were fe- males. None were Jews. Farmers and laborers predominated. Thirty-one Temembered some hurt to the lip Which they charged with being re- on tne lip, three to cuts with razor, and seven to cuts. by teeth. Of the 173, 128 smoked a pipe or cigars or both, 13 smoked cigarettes! and a few chewed tobacco. In 133 the teeth were jagged and could easily cut the lips. In nearly every case the mouth was poorly Kept. The next field for the development of cancer control is the interior of the mouth and especially the gums and tongue. FORGET THE. HEAD NOISES. H. W. writes: 1 am suffering with a roaring sensation in my right ear. It ig worse at night after retiring. I never feel it in my left ear. The sound is as if some one were blowing in a jug. What do you think could be the cause of this and what would you suggest doing to be relieved? REPLY. e usual cause of head nolses is somé disease of the middle ear. As.a rule, trying to cure this affliction 1s |, a waste of time and money. The bet- [ ter plan is to train oneself to disre- gard it, just as we habitually train ourselves to disregard other noises. ANTISUNBURN CREAMS. E. writes: The summer before last I had a terrible sunburn, and~ this time it blistered. It left dark blotches on my neck a shoulders. They aren't .exactly Iike freckles and yet they resemble them, only are bigger. I still have them, but I have succeeded in bleaching them a little. Isn’t there something 1 could put on before going out in the sun that would dior this and possibly help in getting rid of them? REPLY. Apply any sort of a grease or non- vanishing cream. There is one cream on the market that is said to protect against that part of the sun ray which burns. The manufacturers, at least, have faith in It. (Coryright,- 1929.)

You are never willing to abide your decisions, but must worry as to whether or not you are right or wrong. Your mind is always wander- ing down an alternative pathway.

Yanks Must Win 32 of 36 It Macks Play at .500 Clip Mathecatical Chances| Show A’s and Cubs Near Pennants. UST how safely entrenched the Athletics and Cubs are in the American and National pennant races, respectively, may be gleaned from a few figures compiled on the assumption that each of the leaders will win one-half of their remaining games. If the Athletics manage to battle through the remainder of the season on even terms, the second-place Yanks would have to win 32 of. the 36 games sch‘gluled in ordér to nose the A’s out by a single game. Neither the Browns nor Indians could pos- sibly pass the Athletics. The Browns could win ali of their remaining 32 games and still fall three games short of tying the Mactkmen. Should the Indians take all of their 33 games ahead. they would finish four games short of a tie with the present pace- makers if the latter travel at a 500 Clip. The situation is much the same. in the older circuit. By winning half of its remaining 36 games, the Cub team would have a record of 99 wins In’ order to beat this record by a single game, the Pirates would have to bag 33 of their re- maining $7 contests, and the Giants could ‘ust tie by winning their re- STANDING OF LEADERS | AMERICAN LEAGUE.’ Club. on .

If their nearest rivals were to sweep through all of the remaining. games without a loss or tie, the.Mackmen could still survive such an unheard of finish by taking 22 of their. remaining 32 contes‘s, and under the same phenomenal circumstances in the National League, the Cubs would still cop the title Ry bagging 25 of their 36 games on tap.

Hill, the golfiing mother from Kansas City, Mo., whizzed around the historic, rugged -|.Mayfield Country’ Club ‘links today’ with record shattering golf to snatch medalist honors in’ the women’s Western championship from her arch rival, Virginia Van Wie, of Chicago by a single stroke margin. Miss Hill, reigning champion of trans-Misaissippi! women golfers ior qa¥-') the past two years, breezed over the 6,461-yard stretch in 77 strokes, going out in 44, ome over par, and return- ing with an assortment of five birdics and four pars for 36. It was the first time during her seven years of charm- pionship winning that she has won a tournament medal, and the score was recognized as a new Mayfield record as Miss Van Wie’s 76 last year was shot from front tees. Perfect Iron Shots Feature. Round, - Perfect iron play ‘on the second } nine holes netted Mrs. Hill her pbril- lant round, which equaled men’s par on the water splice€, undulating course. Even on the 340-yard second, where she went over par for the only time, she saved herself from a dam- aging seven by Jaying a perfect nid- lick shot 75 yards to within two feet of the pin and getting a five. Four of her five birdies were due to un- canny approaching as she had [1:1 one green of the one-putt variety. Scores were high in today’s quali- fying round, however. In addition to Mrs. Hill and Miss Van Wie, who had a 78, only oye other entrant, Mrs. Larry Nelson, of Dayton, Ohio, shat- tered women’s par. Mrs. Nelson went out with a bad 48 but came back strong with a 37 for an 80 and third place. _ Virginia Wilson, of Chicago, Ca- nadian women’s'champion and run- ner-up in the women’s Western last year, stroked along in even par 82 as did Mrs. Harley Higrie, Detroit cham- pion.

By HENRY LKICHFIELD WEST. HE amateur-profeSsional best-ball golf tournament on the course of the Manor Club yesterday afternoon, under the auspices of the Middle Atlantic Professional Golfers Association, resulted in a tie between Mel Shorey, East Potomac Park pro- fessional, and his brother, John C. Shorey, amateur, Bannockburn, and Kenneth ,ANen and Henry Zeck, both unattached, of Baltimore. These con- testants had best-ball cards of 32— 86—68 and 3€—32—68, respectively. Miller B. Stevinson, amateur, and Fred. McLeod, professional, of the Co- lumbia Country Club, were in thitd Place with a best-ball of 34—36+—70. Mel Shorey’s outward journey was signalized By an eagle and three bird- ies. On the first hole, 470 yards, he was within 4 feet of the cup with a drive and an iron and holed out his eagie 3. Birdies on the fourth and seventh holes were secured by run- ning down 2-foot putts on each green, while on the eighth he ran down a 20-footer for a birdie 2.

Thorpe Suing Pyle For $259 for Labor Los Angeles, Aug. 26 (A.P.).—A sec- ond complaint, charging theft of labor, was ordered filed today by City Prosecutor Lloyd 8S. Nix against C. C. Pyle, sports promoter, in connection with allegedly unpaid labor bills pending from his transcontinental foot race of a few weeks ago. The complaint was signed by Jim Thorpe, famous Indian athlete, who charged that $259 due him in con- néction with the Psle “Bunion Derby” had not been paid. —— a com- plaint charging Pyle with violation of the State labor laws was issued by Nix following failure of the pro- moter to satisfy a $483 labor claim filed by Paul Hickman, leader of a troupe of actors. A suit for $6,000 in prize money has been filed against Pyle in Fed- eral Court by Guisto Umek, Italian runner, who finished third in the foot race. Nick Cullop, Ex-Nat, Wrigley Sees Series Win For Cubs Owner Confident His Club Can Beat A’s If ' Both Win Flags. Gives McCarthy the Credit for Building Up Team. Special to The Washington Post. HICAGO, Aug.. 26.—"If we get through the pennant race and into the world series, we'll win it—I have no doubt about. that.” The speaker was William F. Wrig- ley, jr., owner of the pennant-pointed Chicago Cubs, and he uttered those interesting words as he puffed con- tentedly on his cigar while seated in Manager Joe McCarthy’s hotel rooms. “Understand now, I’m not claiming the pennant yet,”’ the Bruins’ finan- clal boss continued. “We've been close before and lost, but I do say that I think we have the best ball club in the world in ability, spirit and character. “Our players are all gentlemen, and there is no jealousy. More injuries— and we have had more than our share already—is our biggest hazard,” he said, in pointing out the Cubs’ biggest fear. “It takes clever direction, spirit, harmony, and, yes, reasonable breaks to win. We haven't had many what you would call good-breaks, The in- jury of Charley Grimm is ‘the latest bad -news. If Hornsby or sdme of the other men get hurt, it will be pretty bad. Lost 3 Catchers in 5 Minutes, For Record. “I watched a game this year in which we lost three catchers by in- juries in five minutes. That’s a record, but not the sort of record we want to set.” Mr. Wrigley pointed out why he can’t lose the world series—granting that the A’s and Cubs will clash, and even if his club should be beaten. “Here are the Cubs, owned by a native Philadelphian and managed by a native Philadelphian, fighting ahead as the likely rivals of the Athletics in ithe world series—no matter which of them win the world’s championship, I can’t lose, it must be my adopted city or my native city—if these clubs win! The A’s certainly look good. McCarthy Explains Signing of 13-Year-Older. Any questions about the manage- ment of the club were referred to McCarthy by Mr. Wrigley. “You'll have to ask Joe, I’m only a fan. I have nothing to do with the manage- ment or the business office.” Joe explained in answer to ques- year-old third baseman recently signed by the Cubs for what con- stituted a record for youthfulness cf the player, that. Red is not a prto- fessional. He will be eligible to play in high school and college. ‘‘He’s about the best junior base- ball player in the country,” Joe de- clared. “You see, he is merely signed by proxy to an agreement to play with the Cubs when he reaches the age when he will be big-league ma- terial.” Mr. Wrigley was willing to discuss his club, of which he is plainly mighty proud, but he declined to single out individual players for meu- tion. He has the highest praise for McCarthy. Cub Team No Accident, but Well Built, Says Wrigley. “You know this club is no accident It has been carefully built by a clear- thinking manager and it has been expensive building, but get this point —you can’t just buy a winning ball club, even though ability to outbid —— may help in an individual Nu drifted to the Wrigley mara- thon swim, and its sponsor explained that his plan in starting it was to parallel. the Davis Cup idea of inter- national competition, but on a profes- sional] basis. Mr. Wrigley used to be a swim dev- otee in Chicago; and while he insists he was never a star, he has seven large medals to show for races he wor -.. “I am going up to see the men’s swim next Wednesday. Although it is hard to pick out one race, I would say the first event at Catalina Island was the best.

ALTIMORE, Aug. 26—Walter Cobb, late of Kansas City, who adopted Baltimore as the base of his fistic operations several weeks ago after hieing himself hither "neath the flat of the flat cars, “sold”. him- self to the Monumental City fight fans tonight by knocking out Johnny Grosso, New York heavyweight after 1 minute and 40 seconds of fighting in the second round at Carlin’s Park. Cobb left G000 fans, a full house, dazed with the quickness of his vic- tory while the men in Grosso’s cor- ner protested vigorously against the knockout. Floored cleanly by a right to the jaw followed by a left to the body, Grosso arose, it appeared, just as Referee Charlie Short tolled off the fateful tenth count and declared him out. To many in the crowd it seemed that Grosso had recovered in time to regain his feet. before the last count and it was several min- utes before the are™hs was cleared of spectators who mulled about pro- testing Short’s action. The two heavyweights, both win- ners Sy decisions over Marty Gal- lagher, of Washington, in bouts here this summer, set a rapid pace in the first round. Cobb, weighing 211 pounds, had a 15-pound advantage over the New Yorker and used his strength to force the fighting from the start. Joe Proctor Again Gains Decision Over Meyers. The program had a decidedly Washington flavor with three Capital City fighters participating in the pre- liminaries. Joe Proctor, iight heavy- weight, repeated an earlier victory by winning the decision over Speedy Meyers, of Baltimore, in the semi- final, the best fight on the card Proctor assumed an early lead and won the third and fourth rounds by decisive margins, dazing the Balti- morean with left jabs but he failed to follow up his advantage to the ut- most.

A crowd of 35,000 turned out for the first contest of the two-game home series to see the Cubs iift thelr margin over the idle Pirates to 134% games. Rixey allowed but six hits in the first seven frames, Hornsby’s twenty- ninth home run of the year bringing the only runs. In the elghth a waik and two singles drove him from the mound. Rube Ehrhardt replaced him and was touched for five more hits.

S°* & VARATOGA RACE TRACK, N. Y., — ‘Aug. 26 (N. . V. NS.) —Which One and Boojum, Harry Payne Whitney's 2-year-old candidates for the Hopeful Stakes on Saturday, ‘shdwed amazing speed in private trials at. the present meeting, just before the races here this afternoon. Boo- jam, with Pony McAtée in the saddle, Btepped off 6 furlongs in 1:11 4-5, be- \ ing clocked by furlongs in 0:11 3-5, “\0:22 3-5, 0:34 2-5, 0:46 4-5, 0:58 4-5, sti 4-5. ._-A few moments later Which One off at the three-quarter pole with Marshall Lilley, stable foreman and chief exercise boy of the Whitney establishment, in the saddle and he ‘Burned up the track for the 6 fur- i6ngé in 1:11 2-5, though some timers clocked him in 1:11 flat. Which One, which carried about 10 pounds more than Boojum, turned in the faster and , More impressive trial, for after being claoked by furlongs in 0:11 2-5, 0:20 2-5, 0:34 1-5, 0:46 2-5, 0:58 1-5, 1:11 2-5, he worked out the extra fur- long being eased up in 1:25. Impressive Trials to Redace Field. Asan interesting contrast, the time OF the first race, won by Disapproved, was 1:143-5. R amazing trial of the Whitney pair will, in all probability, scare a considerable number of horses out of the Hopeful Stakes. In the course of afternoon a number of trainers O have eligibles announced frankly ‘'S they weére not going to run } t those two. It is the general Opinion that instead of the eighteen to twenty starters the Hopeful has had in other years, not half that number will go to the post, for, bar- ring accident, it looks as though those that do start will be running for third and fourth money. Maiben Rides Lady Capalet Te Victory Over Fillies. Overnight races for the cheaper class horses made up most of the card today, but there was plenty of snap and contest to the racing. Those who remembered Lady Cuplet’s last effort, ten days ago, in which she fin- ished fifth far back of Stream Line, Were not surprised when she was made a 6-to-5 favorite for the event for 3-year-old fillies, at 7 furlongs. Today she had Maiben in the saddle and she won clever)” by a good length from Mrs. John D. Hertz’s Nettie Stone, with Pennant Lass third. Johnny Maiben hoped to make it a double with Sunvir in the Borgomas- ter Handicap, at 1 mile, but after he got Mrs. Katherine Elkins Hitt's thoroughbred away runhning and opened up a long lead, Coltiletti brought Prince Pat up with a rush on the inside and, taking the track at the half-mile ground, went on to win cleverly. Sweet Verbena, winner of the Coaching Club's Oaks was third, ten lengths behind, Stupendous’ Triumphs. in Blanket Finish. One of the closest finishes cf the meeting came in the running of the second race, for platers, at 1 mile. in which Stupendous, Drawing Board, RAiBy Keller and The Runt finished moses apart in the order named. Ditiwing Board made the running to t stretch where the winner got to t ront under a strong ride by Rose but there was little to choose among the first four at the end. Joseph Leiter added to his stable in this race claiming Count Palatine for@2,500. The opening event for 2-year-olds. av'@ifurlongs, also furnished a close finish, Disapproved getting up in the closing strides to beat Devit' l’s Due, which had made the — by a héad on the post.

Cronin hit the ball all over the lot, getting four home runs, and any number of other long drives, and many of hig blows were timely, too. I don’t. mind say- ing that he has made a big hit with me and I believe that he will be a really great player some of these days.” The Nats’ leader also had some comment to make regarding the man- ner in which Buddy Myer is taking to the second-base job. He had only one poor game—Sunday—at Detroit,” said Johnson; “and I’m sure that the fans will notice a great improvement in his work since we left home. If you look up the records, you'll see that Buddie has taken part in any number of double-plays, while he ap- pears to have gotten the knack of playing the middle sack, has steadied himself down, and really looks at home there now. I think my hunch to try him there was one of the best I’ve had this season.” Sunday a Blank Date For World Series. There is a probability that the {coming world’s series will be played without a Sunday game—something unusual, but not absolutely neces- sary, for there usually is a sell-out for the championship coxgtests irre- spective of the days on which they have been played. The major league races this year will be dragged out until October 6. According to the ro- tation plan, the title set will open in in Chicago. Should Commissioner Landis select Tuesday, October 8, for be played at Wrigley Field, weather permitting, with a railroad jump to the Athletics’ stamping ground on Thursday. With games at Shibe Park on Friday and Saturday, it would be impossible for the teams to return to Chicago in time for another baftle the following day. The baseball czar could postpone the opening in Chicago until Satur- day, October 12, which would allow a Sunday game there, but the ar- rangement .would make the world’s series extend too far into the foot- ball season, while unfavorable weather also might take its toll.
