According to testimony, delivered under oath, in the investigation be- ing conducted into conditions at Gal- linger Municipal Hospital, it was dis- closed yesterday that Washington's public hospitel is Elysium itself. Nurses and other employes of the institution: were questioned yesterday by the investigating committee of the Board of Public Welfare at the sec- ond public hearing, held in the con- ference room of the psycopathic ward at Gallinger. Almost without excep- tion, these employes asserted em- phatically that there is absolutely nothing wrong with Gallinger Munic- ipal Hospital in any respect. As on the first day, the questions asked of witnesses by W. W. Milan, chairman of the committee, and other members, dealt principally with the treatment accorded Duncan Price, Post reporter, whose series of articles revealing improper conditions was written after he had spent several days as a voluntary iticognito patient at Gallinger.

Miss Moran told how she has sus- pended nurses for periods of three months for the crime of being a few minutes late in repotting for duty. "It does not. “matter how far away the girl may live,’ tor what @etained her,” ‘she declared. “Wé accept no, — whétever and no girl is per⸗ mitted_to smoke, either when on duty or during her leisure time off duty, if I know anything about it.” But nurses who neglect their work\ or fail to catry out orders given them by: doctors, are merely “reprimanded,” Miss Moran said. She reiterated the testimony of oth- er witnesses that physically the hos- pital is above reproach in every way, and supérior to other institutions which she has seen. Nude Imprisonment Admitted. Questioned about thé alleged prac- tice of putting psychopathic patients in a strong room in a nude condition, Miss: Moran said such practice was resorted tO when there was any pos- sibility that patients might attempt to harm themselves by means of their clothing, as by hanging. — After admitting. that the south, or receiving, building of the psychopathic group contains the most dangerous patients, for the reason that the patients confined there are still under observation and their stages of vio- lence not yet classified, Miss Moran sought to justify her action in plac- ing in charge of that building a nurse who is of diminutive stature and deaf, instead of one of more sturdy phy- gique and in full command of her senses, by'saying she “thought Miss West (the nurse) seemed strong, and although I know Miss- West has dif- ficulty in hearing, I didn’t think she was deaf.” | However, Miss Moran agreed to transfer Miss West to some less dan-~ gerous post, “if ordered to make such @ change.” Hickling Finds Nothing Wrong. Dr. D. Perey Hickling, District alienist, who has been associated with Gallinger and its predecessor, the District Asylum, for 40 years, like- wise declared that he could find no criticism of Gallinger, although he admitted that there were improve~- ments which might be made.

Jerusalem, Aug. 28 (AP.).—The strong hand of the British military today maintained order in Jerusalem and to a large extent in southern Palestine. While there was no serious renewal of the conflict between Arabs and Jews anywhere in the country, conditions in the north were more unsettled. The British soldiers and marines who were rushed here when the situ- ation became grave have been dis- tributed to most of the centers of population, where, to promote peace, they are disarming both Arabs and Jews. Their chief task now is run- ning down bands of irregulars in the country districts. | The correspondent of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency here reported to- day that the order to disarm the Jewish self-defense body was being carried out by British officials over the protests of Jewish leaders. The special Jewish constables enrolled at the height of the riots were now or- dered to disarm. ~ Carrying out these instructions was said to have jed to the Killing of a ‘young dew early tédey if front of the headquarters of the Jewish com- munal board of Jerusalem, “British police ordered him in English to give up hig arms. It Was alleged he did not undefstand thé order and so was shot. University Guard Disarmed. The guard of the Hebrew Uni- versity on Mount Scopus, which has held arms undtt.a permit antedating the disturbances, was ordered to sur- render all arms. Notwithstanding the presence of British soldiers in Jerusalem, much fighting went on last night in the old city and assumed a more danger- ous character in other-parts of the town. The synagogue of the Geor- gian Jewish quarter near the Damas- cus gate was destroyed by fire. Representatives of the Zionist executive in Jerusalem protested ‘o Acting High Commissioner H. C. Luke that discrimination in the disarma- ment wag being made between Brit- ish Jews and non-British Jews. The commissioner was reported to have declared that the order was final. British Soldiers Reported Killed. The correspondent of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency also reported that several British soldiers were killed when a convoy proceeding toward the Jewish colony Kastinia was attacked. All members of the Jewish party under convoy were said to have been wounded and the Arab village near Kastinia was burned in reprisal. The entire crops of the Jewish col- onies Melchamia and Paria were de- stroyed by fire set by Arabs. Several thousand Bedouins of the Samous and Beni Saher tribes of Transjordania crossed the River Jor- dan and encamped near Ramalah. The British police arrested their chief shelk this afternoon to pre- vent further advance. Vaad Louml, the national counci! of Palestine Jews, today gave the total number of Jewish dead in Pal- estine as 120, but unofficial sources estimated the number as 150. French Troops in Jewish Quarter. Beirut, Syria, Aug. 28 (A.P.).— French troops are permanently sta- tioned on pairol inside the Jewish quarter here to protect the lives and property of its inhabitants from pos- sible Ara attack, although no fur- ther demonstrations have occurred since the orderly Areb procession this morning. The parade today was only a small one to escort the Moslem leaders to the Government House to discuss their plans for a great demonstration similar to the parade of 20,000 Arabs yesterday. French authorities per- suaded them to abandon the idea. The Moslems had previously 4as- sured representative Jews that the demonstration was merely intended to protest against the Zionist ex- tremists in Palestine. The French, however, fearing that the riffraff element of the population might seize the occasion to-loot or attack the bazaars, persuaded the Arabs to call off the demonstration entirely.

GITY BUS HEAD ADMITS ROUTES LAGKOANGTION Merrill Tells Fare-Hearing Group Lines Were Never Ordered. HALTING OF SERVICE REGARDED POSSIBLE Commission Stresses It Has Power to Stop Operations. PROPOSED CHANGES FOUGHT BY HANNA Traction Official Refuses to Discuss an Exchange of Tracks. Right. of the Washington Rapid Transit Co. to operate buses over its principal-routes was challenged by the Public Utilities Commission at the car fare hearings yesterday. E. D. Merrill, president of the bus company, which is owned by Harley P. Wilson, of the North American Co., which also owns most of the Wash- ington Railway & Electric Co., sat in the witness chair and admitted that he knew of no specific authority by which his company operated buses over most of its routes. Through questions propounded by Maj. Gen. Mason M. Patrick, chair- man, and Harleigh H. Hartman, vice chairman of the commission, the com- mission challenged the authority of the company for practically all of 1 routes except those running from th downtown section to the neighbor- hood of the Thirteenth street and Iowa avenue terminus. No Formal Order. Merrill admitted that he knew of no formal order of the commission Pepe on bus service into Maryland. or along Sixteenth street into Mary- land, or on Sixteenth street north of Kennedy street, or to act as agent of the Capital Traction Co. along part of its route. Declaring that certain. “express” service was carried ¢+«- other than Tegular routes, Merrill also admitted that he knew of no authorization ‘to do this. The same thing was true, he admitted, about the practice of the company to return buses to the ga- rage or to a terminus to pick up pas- sengers. If the company was forced to aban- don all of the routes for which Mer- rill said he knew of no authority, it would mean a drastic change in the company’s business and: its impor- tance as a competitor with street car lines. As the challenges piled up neither Merrill nor George P. Hoover, attorney for the company, appeared to be enjoying the occasion. Whether the commission will] force the company to abandon the routes it has added to its original lines without specific authority was not in- dicated, but there is little doubt that members of the commission want not only the bus company, including Har- ley Wilson, but the street car compa- hies as well, to ponder on the situa- tion the while they are considering their formal answer to the commis- sion’s proposal for renewal of merger negotiations. Merrill took the stand at the begin- ning of the afternoon session yester- day and had not completed his testi- mony when adjournment was taken at the end of the day. At the request of Hoover, further examination of Merrill was put over until Thursday of next week, and when the hearings are resumed at 10 o'clock this morn- ing John H. Hanna, president of the Capital Traction Co., will be given an opportunity to give his answers to questions propounded to him in the past by the commission. Refuses to Talk. Hanna occupied the witness chair yesterday morning, fighting hard against the commisison's determina- tion to commit him on questions of rerouting of street car lines. Hanna refused to give an unquali- fied approval to any of the rerouting proposals which were put to him in questions by Col. William V. B. Ladue, Engineer Commissioner and member of the Utilities Commission. Ladue yesterday took up the questioning of Hanna where Gen. Patrick left off with William F. Ham, president of the Washington Railway & Electric Co.. the day before. But the Capital Traction head was not so blunt in his refusal to see any advantages which might derive from rerouting of cars ag Ham had been. but he insisted that intelligent con- sideration could not be given to “piecemeal” rerouting and that a merger of the companies was the de- sirable thing. He did not, however, give any indication that the compa- nies hed changed their attitude on the question of renewing merger ne- gotiations at this time. Nor would he yield his previous contention that a merger had no place in the present proceedings. Rerouting by joint use of tracks could be brought sbout on an ex- CONTINUED ON PAGE 3. COLUMN 32.

He said that this use of airships as plane carriems was not merely of military valve, Dut was also expected to be of great commercial use. He envisioned a day when planes would be used to take passengers to and*from commercial lighter-than- air liners. “The day will come,” he said, “when passengers will jump from airships in parachutes, but most of them would not be willing to do that now.

The county aésociation will be guests of the Bethesda Volunteer Fire Depart- ment, of which Dudley Browne is chief. Refreshments will be served at the Bethesda Firehouse following the meeting. The association willl discuss the pro- posed plans for county-wide insurance of volunteer firemen. Considerable time was passed in the discussion of this topic at the last meeting of the association. It ls hoped to evolve a plan whereby any fireman injured in line of duty will be cared for by in- surance. Plans for the participation of the county association members in the Labor Day Firemen’s Parade also will be one of the chief topics of the meet- ing. Chief Frangis Thomas, of Sandy Spring, is president of the association and Norris Fussell, also of Sandy Spring, is secretary-treasurer. There are nine companies of volun- teer firemen in the county, including Silver Spring, Takoma Park, Keneing- | ton, Rockville-Sandy Spring, Bethesda, | Chevy Chase, Gaithersburg-Washing- | ton Grove, and Hyattstown. All of these companies are expected to be | represented in the Labor Day parade. Work of installing bronze blinker lights on the pilasters of the Baliti- more & Ohlo Rallroad Viaduct at Silver Spring probably will soon be completed ang the lights placed in operation. The lights were installed by the Potomac Electric Power Co. The lights were obtained largely through the efforts of County Com- missioner Lacy Shaw, in charge of the Northwestern Suburban District, after a number of serious accidents had resulted from crashes with the pilasters by motorists. One fatal ac- cident was recorded last April and a number of less serious accidents. The pillars are hard to see at night, and motorists ynfamillar with the road do not expect the thin pillars of steel. ‘This ts especially true on foggy and rainy nights.

Tel. Clar. 509. Clarendon, Va. The Chamber of Commerce of Arlington County will appeal to the county board of supervisors at its meeting at the courthouse tomorrow to use its influence to have work re- sumed and rushed to a speedy com- pletion in that section of Wilson Boulevard lying between the county courthouse and Clarendon avenue. A petition which has been drafted by the chamber of commerce and which will be circulated among the business interests today declares that reports from merchants show that the closing of the boulevard and ap- parent lack of work being done be- tween Clarendon avenue and Lorton avenue has resulted in a loss of be- tween 15 and 40 per cent of their business each week, which represents a loss to the community of more than | $10,000 a week. The petition further asks that the Officials use all power possible to have the work also speeded up be- tween the county courthouse and Clarendon, as it is from that section that a major part of the loss comes and also the greatest inconvenience to the traveling public. While the business men of Clarendon say they appreciate the fact that it is neces- sary to close a road when it is being improved and also what the widen- ing of Wilson boulevard means to Clarendon and all other sections, it is pointed out that it appears the road is being close€, but nothing is being done to indicate that it will be opened any time in the near future. The auxiliary to Arlington Post, American Legion, No. 139, held its monthly meeting last night at the home of Mrs. Marvin Eubank in Clarendon. The newly elected officers were in- stalled as follows: Mrs. H. W. Beattie, president; Mrs. S. B. Yorkdale, vice president; Mrs. Harvey Mitchell, treasurer; Mrs. E. L.

S0 confident had the delegates been that the last obstacle in the way of agreement would be sur- mounted that they arranged for a full public session at 2:30 p. m. to- dey at which the proceedings would be broadcast by radio. With the ad- journment, the time béfore the pub- lic session is cut te 4% hours, but hope was still entertained that an agreement would be reached in time. Almost all of the leaders 6f the delegations had made arrangements to leave The Hague today or tomor- row. Premier Aristide Briand, of France, and Foreign Secretary Arthur Henderson, of Great Britain, planned to return tenight to their respective capitals. . Germany Sets Price. Foreign Minister Gustav Strese- mann of Germany yesterday said he was willing to cooperate but that if Germany gives up anything it must get something in exchange. He had been asked to contribute a consider- able ‘glice of the benefit that (Ger- many’ would obtain from thé over- lapping of the Dawes and Young plans. The former, with its larger scale of payments, would not expire until September 1 whefeas the ex- pects in Paris agreed to apply the oung scale as of last April. The German stand; if persisteq in, would of course throw out the entire agreement between the creditor pow- ers, which Tuesday night appeared as the chief fruit of three weeks of strenuous meetings. The problem of distribution of the reparations an- nuities weuld then have to be tackied all over again. On the other hand, if agreement is reached later today, on the main ints, the details will undoubtedly left in the hands of committees of experts who will report elther to the government or te a reconvened conference in September or October.

Ite repeal, it is declared, is a direct gift to the United States and Bethlehem Steel companies because they will not pass the reduction in the cost of the ore on to the con- sumer. But it puts the Westerners and the Democrats in an inconsistent light, after raising sO much cain about tne high industrial rates of the Dill to be howling when an item is trans- ferred to the free list. And from the ltloudp¢ss of their howl it would seem that here at iast is the great trading point between the two camps. “Oh, you gentlemen really want a tariff on manganese,” the regulars may now gay. “Well, well, then you won’t mind our having a few rates?” The tariff framers have apparenty hit upon .something that is quite dear to the Westerners and something that is dear to them alone, whico may find them without the assistance of the Soutmern Democrats, because the South is‘ hardly sympathetic to keeping thé tariff on the oge. It would seem to have been a mas- ter mind that had the tariff removed in the finance committee, Senator Wheeler in a statement yesterday said that Senator Bingham said that it ers in the country. was President Hoover himself, the man who doesn’t understand politics. MANY ILLEGAL CITY BUS ROUTES ADMITTED TO UTILITIES GROUP F CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. tensive scale by an agreement be- tween his company and the railway, Hanne agreed. But his agreement was given as if he didn’t like to give it and he: coupled with it a declara- tion. that such.an- arrangement, so far as physical operation went, would be tantamount to a merger and might even necessitate the creation of a new company to handle the opera- tions. That, he added, would be un-/} desirable. Col. Ladue asked if it were not true that the two companies had not now agreements providing for joint use of tracks. Hanna admitted that this was true, but said that these. weré practically all with the authority of congressional approval. The most direct threat of the com- mission's intention to order rerouting as a sudstitute for higher car fares was made by Col. Ladue as he pursued his questioning of Hanna. Hanna Disagrees. “Haven't we,” Ladue asked, “per- fectly. clear authority to do this under the’ public utilities law?” “IL don't think so,” Hanna disa- ate ye think,” rejoined Ladue coldly, | “if we-were hard pressed we could rest on the ae ae yy law.” “T don’t t it is possible.” Hanna insisted,’ “It contemplates an entirely different thing from the mere use of tracks of one company by the other. It would require a division of » unified operation and such things.” . Hanna, with an eye to the record, added that the two companies could —— re to serve the public “well” : —* if there was no merger, but that a “merger would be desirable.” Hanna disa with Ham’s esti- mate of the possible advantages which might come from bringing the Chevy Chase line of the Capital h | Traction down thé Connecticut ave- nue line of the Washington railway. When Ham had been asked about such a scheme the day before he had forthwith descrbied it as being not worth considering and as having disadvantages rather then advan- tages. At the same time Ham told the commisston that it might be a good thing to switch the Wisconsin avenue. cars of his company over the Pennsylvania avenue line of the Capital Traction, and Hanna gave him a sour look. Hanna Enjoys Self. It was Hanna’s turn yesterday and rihe seemed to enjoy the opportunity to put into the record the statement that there might be considerable ad- »| vantages derived from running his Chevy Chase‘ cars down Ham's Con- necticut avenue tracks. Col. Ladue asked about other changes in routing, all of them taken from 4. gem. made by various en- neers in reports to the companies, e commission or some other gov- ernment body in the past. The changes included development of loop lines in the downtown section, running Capital Traction hake some ot street cars straight down Fourte street, over Railway tracks to | Bureau graving and Printing; abolition of subterminals at Fif- teenth street on New York avenue and on G street northwest; con- necting the tracks of both compa- nies on Eighth street northeast at C, D and H streets; routing some of the Fourteenth street cars east on F or G streets, instead of west at New —* avenue, and several others. These changes were not proposed at the commission’s own suggestion, but. were quoted from the reports of en- poms and were put in the form of questions. ver Hanna answered a qués- —— a specific = he coupled with his answer con- stantly repeated statement ‘that the whole question must be studied and no one could pass intelligently on final advantages from individual “We can’t sit here as a part of this| W! case and tl y discuss re- routing at this t or at that oped he said. “Public hearings should held on rerouting separately: The lic is entitled to know and shoul what is to happen. 2 minutes of 9 and 9 o’clock in the morning.” Even a fifteen-minute difference in the opening and closing hours of de- partments, he said, would make a material difference in the burden and Gen.

Snowden has reached this pinnacle of fame through having obtained for Great Britain some $9,500,000 yearly—a sum not half of that ex- pended by this coufhtry every day during four and one-half years of war. What seems a strange dispropor- tion betweén the issues at stake and —* exultation aroused at Snowden’s uccess is explained by the English belief that Great cheated and cajoled out of her rights in every international conference since the war, that the American debt settlement, followed by the agreements with France and Italy in which Great Britain, under the “ca- pacity to pay” formula, fared badly, represen a quixotic policy unfair to the taxpayers, and that now, therefore, Snowden, by standing firm in the face of a chorus of ob- jections from all over the world, has restored British self-respect at home and prestige abroad. Thig feeling is imdicated by the glee with which the British press thruoghout the negotiations has re- printed all attacks no Snowden in the foreign press. Today, as laurels for the: brow of the homecoming victor, a garland is prepared for him by one paper com- of terms abuse gathered m* French, Italian and American newspapers. Snowden had been vari- ously described . the past three weeks as “rude, impolite, impertinent, obstinate, coarse, vulgar, undiplo- matic, tough, bitter, glacial, unbend- ing, brutal, offensive, insulting, ma- lignant, mammon, chauvinist, stone- hearted, philistine, a jingo, kaiser, torpedoer, hardened nationalist, dic- tator, shylock, amok-runner and miser.” While the newspapers, as a final seal on Snowden’s apothesis, record the banning by the Paris police of showing of current news films show- ing his hated face with its now famous chin, editorials today present the serious view of what the struggle gg Hague has meant. e Evening Standard, a conserva- tive newspaper, comments: “Snowden returns, not only haying gained the material fruits of victory which he set out to seek, but also having restored his country to its proper —— in Europe. The fact that t continental powers have learned a very necessary lesson is much more significant than a couple | of million pounds annually this way or that. The sum at issue, as the European press kept on plaintively repeating, was of no great moment. What chiefly mattered was that it was only the latest of a long series of raids on our national purse, all pp ge org allowed by us. and that if it been permitted, it would have by no means the last. “The conditions into which we had fallen is amply demonstrated by the tone adopted in all French and Italian newspapers, a tone full of pain, in- dignation and surprise. These people, cried the publicists of Paris and Rome. are grasping and avaricious: when we try to take their money away from them they resist. “Perhaps the most remarkable, cer- tainly aspect of the that, while At lasted, party divisions have virtually disappeared.

SOUTHERN CONTROL SEEN (By CARLISLE BARGERON). The efforts of the new Democratic Headquarters here to promote party harmony have struck another snag, & Serious one, this time in Massachu- setts. A strong faction in that State is attacking the propriety of having Jouett Shouse, head of the head- quarters here, speak at the big organi- zation meeting in Boston September 7. The headquarters here, it its charged, has devoted itself to express- ing the view of the Southern wing of the party against that of Massa- chusetts and New England. So strong has this feeling developed that the Boston Post, looked upon as the Democratic Bible in the Bay State, describes the choice of Shouse to be the chief speaker at the rally as “hardly a happy one.” Southern Control Charged. “Mr. Shouse is personally an at- tractive, able man,” the Boston Post says. “But the course of the national committee under his direction (since Chairman Raskob is temporarily in- active), is not such as to commend itself to Massachusetts Demo- crats. x x x “Under Mr. Shouse’s direction, the Democratic National Committee seems to have surrendered almost com- pletely to the Southern wing of the party, despite the fact that. Northern Democrats carried two Republican States in New England, while South- ern Democrats were handing over four States of the South to the Republic- an ticket.” t is the Democratic attack on the tariff bill, engineered by Shouse, that the Massachusetts Democrats resent. Massachusetts wants a tariff on boots and shoes and textiles. It comes decidedly in the industrial class in the big fight of agriculture versus industry. The Boston Post charges that Shouse, by virtue of his bombard- ment on the tariff bill, has taken the side altogether of agriculture. Simmons Objected to. “He selected as his tariff spokes- man,” it continues, “Senator Sim- mons, of. North Carolina, the bitterest foe of Gov. Smith in the South, who was virtually responsible for the anti-Smith victory in North Carolina, openly advising ‘the Demo- crats to 'polt. “Senator Simmons, a veteran of the Séefiate, has long been known as the chief Democratic ‘tariff favor grabber’ in the Senate and has, in the past, frequently voted with a Re- publican majority on tariff bills, after he had secured what he wanted for his State.” This attack must make Shouse realize the ungratefulness of his job because it has only been a few days since Virginia Democrats told him to keep out of their campaign, or rather announced that he would not be rmitted to come in, @ attitude of the Virginia Dem- ocrats was easy to understand. The only issue that the Republican-Can- nonite coalition has against them, if it can be called one, is that of “Ras- kobism.”| It would be suicide tor them under the circumstances to let the headquarters here set up by Chairman Raskob, gave them any aid or comfort. ; Attacked From Both Sides. But now Shouse has to take one on the chin from the Bay State. Both sides- seem to want to kick him around. It would geem to emphasize the utter futility. of his purpose, that of bringing the party together. It is torn asunder on the tariff, it is rent on prohibition. Apparently its vari- ous wings have not a thing in the world in common. Gf course, the statement that Shouse made Simmons, the tariff spokesman, ig far fetched. By virtue of his being ranking minority mem- ber of the Senate finance commit- tee, Simmons is the party's tariff spokesman. Shouse’s headquarters considered it quite an accomplishment some weeks back, in fact, to get a statement from Simmons. The fact that Simmons gave the committee a statement was heralded as a happy sign of the future—at least he had nothing against the headquarters and its effort to promote harmony. Why Deal With Simmons. Now the Bay /State says in effect, why play ball with Simmons at all, why not express the view for the people who voted the Demcoratic ticket last November? It is true, too, that Simmons enjoys the reputation of always getting what his State wants out of the tariff. The Bay. State Democrats think they have an excellent opportunity of electing a United States senator next year to succeed Senator Gillette The meeting September 7 is with a view to getting the campaign under way with rgusing cheers. But it is asad commentary on Democratic af- fairs generally that The Post should have to lJament the presence at the meeting of one of whom the South is. wary because he is suspected of being Raskob’s man.

HOOVER IDEA IS UPHELD (Associated Press.) The House proposal to authorize President Hoover to recreate the tar- iff commission | by appointing new members without waiting for the terms of the commissioners serving to expire has been retained in the tariff bill as revised by the Republican members of the Senate finance com- mittee, The President recommended in his message to the special session that legislation be enacted providing for a reorganization of the commission, and the text of the reframed tariff measure made public today disclosed that the way had been opened for the Executive to bring this about. The House provision authorizing the Executive to appoint new mem- bers without regard to party affilia- tions, however, was stricken out and the existing language providing that not more than three cOmmissioners shall be of the same political party Was restored. House Bill Described. The House had provided for a com- mission of seven, designed to prevent deadiocks on important decisions, with terms of seven years, as against six members at present with terms of twelve years, but the finance commit- tee majority bill calls for six mem- bers to serve six years each. Their salaries would be $12,000 a year as oe with $7,500 under existing Ww Each incumbent would serve until his successor was nominated, con- firmed and assumed office. The Presi- dent, however, could retain any mem- ber he desired, All rates previously made public as having been tentatively agreed upon were made permanent as far as the —"T, is concerned, in the printed x Senator Nye (Republican), North Dakota, said it would be better to have no tariff bill at all than the pending measure.’ Senator Harrison (Democrat), Mississippi, described the bills as “even worse than when it was passed by the House.” Chairman Smoot announced that the majority report on the bill, which he planned to make public tomorrow or Friday, would not be ready until next Tuesday. Labor Represented. The bill would change the present law to permit a representative of or- ganized labor to appear in reappraise- ment cases and to inspect documents of consignees and importers, together ‘With manufacturers, producers and wholesalers, and make unlawful the importation of any merchandise of foreign manufacture if marked pat- ented in the United States. The United States, under another provision, would be authorized to en- ter into reciprocal agreements with foreign nations providing for free entry of dispatches or shipments through the mails of circulars, fold- ers, pamphlets, books and cards in the nature of advertising matter to individual addressees. Exception would be made in the case of such matter as may be printed or manu- factured in a foreign country adver- tising the sale of articles by persons carrying on business in the United States or containing announcements relating to the merchandise or busi- ness of such persons. Wheeler Objects. The bill was sharply criticized in a statement by Senator Wheeler (Demo- crat), Montana, who declared that the manganese mines in his State would be forced to close down if the duty was removed from that product. The Montana senator charged that the United States and Bethlehem steel companies had “made a deal with the agent of the output of Soviet Russia who happens to be a connection of one of the high Bethlehem officials, and that is the reason these great corporations issued orders to the ad- ministration to put manganese on the free list.” Jefferson Davis’ Aid Cut by Rowdy Dispatch Bearer in Civil War Griticaly Wounded in Street Fight.

Cancer Victim in Lunacy Ward, It is prisoners not claimed here that all in the psychopathic ward were either insane, idiotic or degen- erate. A few were just sick, appar- ently, like the aged and friendless man who died one night after he had lain on the floor all day. The dor- mitory understanding was that he had died from cancer and old age. He got one line in the birth and death statistics column of the news- papers to the effect that he had died in Gallinger. I looked it up. But that belongs in another and subse- quent story. They took a half dozen of them to St. Elizabeths one morning. The poor devils had no idea where they actually were going. They thought they were going home, and said their jubilant good-bys. One of them asked me to give him a dime das soon as he got outside he’d telephone my folks and a friend .to come and get me, too, I gave -him the dime, well knowing, though, that a wagon from St. Elizabeths insane asylum was waiting beyond the door. Herded for St. Elizabeths., It was depressing to see them all | go blithely out the side doorway, only to run into the arms of guards and policemen who quickly shoved them into the van.

Since I had been on a rye bread diet, and none was to be had, my breakfast dwindled down to one hard- boiled egg. Individual Likes Spurned.

Not one in my week was satisfactory in either quantity or quality—and I never have been a Stickler for fancy things. In the main, the treatment I per- sonally received at Gallinger during the final days of my stay was fairly satisfactory. By request of my famlly, I finally was given a little room of my own down the corridor, but next door to me was a pyromaniac, on the way to St. Elizabeths, instead of the Atlanta Penitentiary, by ccurt order, My room was frequently entered by rambling, more or less insane ward inmates.

Border Violations - Laid to Chinese Soviet Posts Send News to Moscow of Firing on-Frontier. Moscow, Thursday, Aug. 29 (A.P.). Reports received early this morning from Blagoveschensk, on the northern Manchurian border, charged the Chinese with three separate border vio- lations. Soviet border posts 10 miles from the station of Manchuria on the west- ern frontier of the Chinese district of that mame were said to heve been fired upon by artillery from the Chinese side. The captain of the steamer Kari Liebknecht and several passengers were wounded when the vessel was fired on.when about 15 miles from Blagoveschensk.

Denies Difficulty of Belease. Referring to the liberties he de- clared are granted to mental patients at Gallinger, Dr. Hickling declared that any patient not definitely known to be violent could obtain his or her release merely by asking to be dis- har ged. “Why, even those bars on the win- dows are not eally bars,” he declared. “Any one could get through them.” One change which Dr. Hickling did advocate was that alcohOlic and nar- cotic patients should be treated in separate buildings from mental pa- tients. Throughout the whole period of the hearing yesterday, which lasted for more than three hours, Dr. Bdgar A. Bocock, superintendent of Gailinger, sat next to Millan, apparently whis- pering to the chairman the questions to be asked witnesses. Dr. George M. Kober, chairman of the medical com- mittee of the board, was sidetracked by Millan on most of the frequent occasions when ,he sdught to elicit further Jnformation from witnesses, by propounding questions of his own. Pretty Nurse Straightforward. Possibly the most straightforward testimony of the day was that given by Miss Hermine Fisher, senior stu- dent nurse, who was on duty in the south building during Price’s in- carceration there.

It is the adventure of four big cracksmen who “pulled off” one of the greatest crimihal stunts of their day—and yet had to count themselves losers in the long run. It happened in the City of Phila- deiphia as long ago as the year of the Centennial exposition, and, tn order to make it clear to the reader, it will have to be told from the standpoint of the burglars rather than from that of the detectives. The old Custom House in that city is one of the finest specimens of architecture in this country, being modeled on the pat- tern of the Madeleine in Paris, with handsome fluted or Corinthian front holding up its sloping roof. For many years the subtreasury was housed in the back part of this building, being separated from the Custom House proper by a fairly substantial wall. One day the leader of the four cracksmen was told by some one con- nected with the Treasury that the sum of $10,000,000 in gold had been deposited in one of the vaults. This vault was on the second floor, and on the other side of the wall which sep- arated it from the Custom House was a large clock. Back of this clock was a sort of storeroom which was filled with rubbish. The crook made it his business to visit both the Custom House and the Subtreasury during business hours and he familiarized himself with the “lay of the land.” He noticed that some mechanics were working in the Custom House and he managed to learn that they were not guns to report for duty on Satur- ay. But.on Saturday morning four men dressed in overalls and jumpers and carrying boxes of tools on their shoul- ders, filed into the building. The man at the door expressed surprise, but was told that the boss had decided togame away Just when we're ready to put another shift on the job in order to hurry it up. At noon the dullding was closed, and the watchman, g0- ing off duty himself, as he was re-. lieved by another, was unconscious of the fact that the four workingmen had not left. In the meantime, while everything in the building was quiet, the four crooks in the storeroom behind the clock started to work to tear away the brick and stone wall tnat Bay arated them from the $10,000,000 gold in the Subtreasury. The clief cracksaman had marked the spot well, and he wag eatisfied that the gold was exactly »2pposite the place where they started to work. Needless to say they had to go ebout the business with great caution. Fo?- tunately for them they had been able to carry a full set of tools tnto the building. But the hammers they worked with were padded and they talked in whispers. The job proved to be much harder than they had anticipated. The men who erected those walls generations ago imtended them to stand until the crack of doom. 60 the theives had to toil terribly. There were in- terruptions when the Custom House watchman reached that part of the building on his regular rounds. The consequence was that it wag nearly a day and a half before they could see daylight or look into the vault. The sun was coming up on Monday morn- ing when the first complete hole was made in the wall. “There it is, Bill!’ hoarsely whis- pered the chief crook to one of his pals; “there it is. A fortune within our grasp. Gee, but the Count of Monte Cristo won't have anything on us!" “Keep quiet,” replied the boss of the job. “Do you want to give the grab the gold?” There the, stuff iay in large bags, piled one on another, like ordinary merchandise. Several of the bags were pulled out. One of the crook# slit a bag with his penknife, and out ran—not 810 gold pieces, but cop- per fennies. It was estimated that the bags contained 10,000 of them The watchman arrived at about that time. The theives escaped—but with- out a cent. It was only“later that they learned that there were three compartments in’*the vaults of the Subtreasury containing gold, silver and pennies. The bright crooks struck the penny vault.

S the battle tha Spain's power in this hemisp Secretary of the Navy Adams told Harden that he warmly appreciated ‘his offer, and said that these was little doubt that the Olympia would be saved. The secretary feels, how- ever, that the best plan would be to have Congress present the Olym- ula to the- District of Columbia or some city. As soon as the House reconvenes, Representative Cochran (Dempcrat), of Missouri, plans to reintroduce his bill to have the Olympla brought here as a memortal, Cochran's idea ls to have the ship either anchored off Hains Point or run into 4 é6pe- cially made lagoon at the tip of Po- tomac Park. Cochran had noticed that huhdreds of tourists and school children’ visit- ing here were anxious to see &@ War- ship. Uniess there happened co be a destroyer visiting the aavy yard, there was none to see. When it was announced that the Olympla was to be taken out of commission, Cochran got the idea that he fAnally “incor- porated in his bill. By bringing the Olympia here, he reasoned, the visi- tors not only “would be able to see a warship, but might see one that will forever remain famous in American history. The National Capital Park and Planning Commission made a study of Cochran’s plan at that time and concluded it would be quite feasible to bring the Olympia to Haina Point. The city of Annapolis still i» hope- ful of getting the Olympia, according to a dispatch yesterday. Representa- tive Gambrill, of the Fifth Mafyland District, and the other members ol opr the Maryland delegation feel that Annapolis, home of the Naval Acad- emy, would be the logical place for the historic cruiser.

Ambassador Hugh Gibson, tripartite Geneva conference, and Am- bassador Dawes, who is acting under Secretary Stimsof’s instructions, are in disagreement over basic principles in the matter of naval disarmament. They do not see eye to eye when it comes to assessing the value of apparent conces- sions which the British admiralty, through Premier Ramsay has advanced as a basis of preliminary discussions. Their failure to agree, oe coupled with the repercussions which | the Palestine outbreaks have had on the | has brought a decided | British: people, | reaction in disarmament discussions. It has been clear for some days th the American position on disarmament, as understood Secretary Stimson, has been drifting far afield from the position Mr. took at Geneva, and the question has arisen as to whether the United States now pro- poses to abandon the principles which Mr. Gibson fought for under President Coolidge’s instructions. That Mr. Gibson had the solid sup- port of American naval authorities, as well as the support of President Coolidge and the American people, ia his opposi- tion to British proposals at Geneva is now a matter of history. The view- point of American naval officers has not changed. It would be embarrassing to Mr. Gibson and to naval experts on an American delegation, to appear at a future conference and be compelled to admit that they were all wrong at Geneva, and that agreement on British terms should have. been reached. America insisted upon parity in eruiser strength at Geneva, and Mr. Gibson obtained Britain’s consent to actual parity in so far as the relative strength of the two cruiser fleets was concerned. Disagreement came over allocation of 10,000 ton cruisers carry- ing 8-inch guns, of vital importance to Americs, and smaller cruisers carrying 6-inch guns, of particular importance to the British. But the British delega- tion agreed that there would be actual parity in cruiser strength. In his opening statement, Mr. Gibson enumerated four basic points at Geneva, by which Gibson J MacDonald, | ; 2 2 ee a ——i X PL —— ‘oa ———— ——— r —— - — DPA rh. at —- Be PS ag cee Ra aoc ERM AN ag hag oooh = 9 al ag e — —— ge ae & aig es SNE - which included the following: That the methods and principles | of limitation set forth inthe Wash- | ington Treaty are both practical | and effective,and should be ex- tended to all categories of com- batant vessels of the three powers. Later in the same address, Mr. Gib- son drove this point home a second time when he said: The American suggestions based on the following considera- tions: That the ratios and prin- ciples of the Washington Treaty | be applied to cruisers, destroyers | and submarines. | | are To make assurance doubly sure that there would be actual and immediately | effective parity, Mr. Gibson made a third | direct reference to. this all-important | point when he said: The tonnage allocations suggest- ed by the American delegation as a basis of discussion are the fol- lowing: Cruiser class: For the United States to 300,000 tons. For the British Empire 250,000 to 300,000 tons. | Replying for Great Britain, W. C. Bridgeman, first lord of the admiralty, enumerated eleven points to which Britain was declared to be solemnly pledged. The seventh point in Mr. Bridgeman’s statement was as follows: Acceptance of the existing ratio 5-5-3 for cruisers of 10,000 tons displacement carrying 8-inch guns. America had scrapped capital ships at a loss to the taxpayers of $330,000,- 000 at the Washington conference of r 250,000 | that country. | murdered | to heavy damages against Great Britain, and i are | heen | Therefore | now \ ö— — — —— — — — —— — 1921-22, in order to bring about naval parity. Gibson demanded immediate, actual cruiser parity at Geneva. Now it develops that the program which Secretary Stimson has in mind does not contemplate actual parity with Great Britain in cruisers. Britain is not to be asked to scrap cruisers. Over- whelming British superiority in cruiser strength is to femain undisturbed under the new proposed scheme, but an effort is to be made to persuade the British government to forego certain replace- ments when cruisers become obsolete, so that “approximate parity” may be reached in 1936 or later. Anything may of course happer by that time, but meanwhile Great Britain is to be con- ceded a greater superiority than Mr. sridgeman ever dreamed of asking at Geneva. In order to avoid tonnage comparisons which would show Britain’s cruiser superiority at a glance, a system of counting 6,000-ton cruisers and other small cruisers on a fictitious tonnage basis is said to-be under consideration. Britains small cruisers would be classed, not on their actual tonnage, but on a fractional part of it. By this de- vice Britain’s great number of small cruisers would be called “defensive” ‘cruisers, while the 10,000-ton cruisers 'in which America is interested would | : . ‘6 * — who | be called “offensive” cruisers. headed the American delegation at the | The net result would be to allow Britain’s cruiser strength to be actually far greater than would appear in the com- parisons. Mr. Gibson devoted his concluding speech at Geneva to riddling this Brit- ish suggestion. He said: The American delegation can not but feel that every warship pos- sesses essential offensive char- acteristics and that no ship is built for the sole purpose of defending itself against attack. We can not follow the reasoning which attrib- utes to 6-inch-gun cruisers a purely defensive role. the differences Obviously between at | Ambassador Dawes and Ambassador Gibson are not because of a clash in their views of national defense, but are caused by a change of policy in the State Department. At Geneva the American delegates stood solidly upon a principle that safeguarded American national defense. Apparently Ambas- sador Dawes is faithfully following in- structions which give a political aspect to the present conversations with Great Britain, in an effort to reach an agree- ment which may bring about parity, not now, but in the uncertain future. It.is not surprising to learn that the two ambassadors are finding it impossible to agree. THE NEAR-EAST UPRISING. All reports from the Near East are omi- nous. Moslem uprisings are reported in the countries bordering on the Holy Land, all fanned to fury by the events in Palestine. Both the Arabs and the Jews accuse the British authorities of negligence, and British public opinion is sharply arraigning the Bald- win government for permitting the situation to reach the stage of wholesale massacres. The London Times declares that ‘‘there must be prompt and searching investigation into the responsibilities for the outbreak, both of the criminals themselves and of those we placed in authority in Palestine.’”’ It adds that ‘‘the British publie and the public of all nations who have citizens in Palestine have a right to know the more immediate and re- mote reasons for the lamentable events of the past few days.’’ The United States, taking note of the mas- sacre of American citizens, is in duty bound to hold the British government strictly to account for its failure to maintain order in Palestine. The British government. volun- tarily assumed responsbility for governing The inefficiency of its authori- ties directly encouraged the violence and | bloodshed. All Americans suffering loss are The families of the American boys have just claim entitled to indemnity. the United States Government should press these claims to a prompt settlement. When American citizens are subjected to hardships, dangers, losses and death through misgovernment in foreign lands the Govern- ment has a right to demand assurances that these conditions shall cease. The robbing and killing of Americans in Mexico more than | once brought the two governments into sharp conflict, and many Americans held that their Government has been entirely too dilatory in holding Mexico to account. The fury of the Palestine outbreaks gives a more merac- ing aspect to the situation, by indicating the workings of a vast conspiracy that may en- velop in flames all Moslem countries under British influence or domination. Thousands of Americans are in those regions, and they are beyond the reach of protection from their own Government. American warships not available, and even if they were on ' hand they would be debarred from action on i account of the assumed responsibilities that have by the British government. the measures which Britain may take to restore and maintain order are of vital importance to the United States. TO SAVE THE OLYMPIA. The threatened destruction of Admiral Dewey's flagship Olympia has breught an offer from Edward W. Harden, of New York, to purchase the ship and present it to the public, on condition that it be maintained in Washington as a permanent memorial. Unless Congress is willing to order the Navy Department to preserve the vessel in Wash- ington and make it accessible to the publie, Mr. Harden’s generous offer should be ac- cepted. The indifference of Congress to the ‘ae a cen renee ae ee — — — — — —— — — fate of the Constitution, the Hartford and Other famous American ships gives no en- couragement to the idea that it will preserve the Olympia without private cooperation. The Constitution, the most glorious of all American warships, has been saved by in- dividuals, and not by Congress. There is unanimous approval of Mr. Har- den’s plan to keep the Olympia at tha Na- tional Capital. Here it will be open to the inspection of citizens from all parts of the Union, and it will be in an environment that emphasizes the most glorious chapters of American history. The Olympla conveyed the body of the Unknown Soldier from France, and it would be well if the vessel were moored here, within sight of the Un- known Soldier’s tomb and the tomb of Ad- miral Dewey in Washington Cathedral. If Congress should be indifferent to the fate of the Olympia it seems probable that Mr. Harden’s offer would provide a solution of the question... The public has entered a strong protest against the scrapping of that heroic vessel. A small sum, perhaps only $15,000 a year, would suffice to maintain the vessel. Should Congress refuse to pro- vide this sum, Secretary Adams would be warranted in asking the public to assume this part of the burden. The vessel should be preserved intact, with its guns, instru- ments and full equipment, and should be open to the public without: charge. Man is the crudest and most incompleté product in the world, says the-Rev. Peake Johnson.

We the La Serrana. * * * The ship broke in four pieces. I jumped islands. * * * of struck on shoal into the sea and swam to. the We ate raw meat for almost two months and drank the blood of the seals and | sea cows that came to the island. As some thought that that life was sterile, | as your grace will see, they determined to | build a raft, built one out. of timbers that the sea had bronght to the island. After they were lashed together with sealskins and cords of the same seals three got on the raft and three of us stayed behind, two men and a boy. Four days after those of the raft had left one of the three who had stayed, whose name was Moreno de Malaga, seeing that there was no water or fire and that it was the month of August (for up to that time we had been delayed, as I have said above), began to eat his arms, and from several bites that he gave himself he died raving. When I saw that my companions had left and that another had died and that only the boy was left for a companion, I made shift to find some remedy by which I might sustain myself. And so I began to dig with tortoise bones in various parts of the island to see if there was any water, and because the land was so little in the midst of the gulf I found the water everywhere as salt as that of the sea. I drank this water several times mixed with the blood of the seals. And in this time it never rained so that I might be suc- cored. by water from heaven. And I made shift, in case it should rain, to dig pits in the sand, and I took many seal skins and lined the pits and when God willed that it should rain, which was in the month of October, I caught some water in the pits and in a few. snail shells of the sort that there are called cobos. The water in the pits lasted a very short time, because it sank in the sand. When it rained I was so eager to drink that L jumped into the watewin such fashion that I cut my arms and legs very badly, and the remedy I found for it was to mix the water with blood. For two months after landing on the island I was without fire and seeing that winter was coming and that I could not support myself without fire I set about making a raft no larger than just necessary to sustain me, and I went to the place where the ship had sunk (I mean where it may have sunk) and Ff made an anchor out of a stone to tie the raft in a fathom and a half of water, and by diving several times I found a pebble with which I made fire. And I was in such a state that only the mercy of God and the fire restored my life to me. And on another very small island, which is to the leeward of where I was, there were two men from another ship that had been lost, and they, seeing the fires, came on.a raft to where I was, and they were with me five years. and we all 7 * ꝛ*k * We made a house covered with skins, where we took shelter, and our clothing and bedding were.of sealskins. During five months of the year we dug turtle eggs from the sand close to the sea. These we dried and prepared to eat, and we found them a good food for the winter. Sometimes we ate the seacrows that came there, and when we did not there was nothing else except some roots of a plant that seemed somewhat like greens. Three years after the others had left and eight years since we had come there, God permitted that we should be rescued, and one day, on St. Matthew's eve at noon, we saw a ship under sail, and we made a very great smoke on one of our towers. And when those on board the ship saw us they lowered a boat and the master and the sailors landed, and the master, whose name is Joan Bautista Jinoves, a citizen of Triana, took testimony by a notary of everything he saw. Thence we came to Havana, where it was the will of God that my lord, Don Pedro de Alvarado, the adelantado, wa, and he noticed our manner of dress and was informed by the master of our life, and he forthwith received us as his and provided us with necessities, and he supports the other in the Indies and me in Spain, as your majesty sees. This is not so extensive as I could wish, because it was impossible to retain a just remembrance of everything without writing it down as it happened. Receive, your majesty, the will I have to serve you and the remembrance I will keep of it wherever I be. I kiss your majesty’s hands.

The council lls them not to learn an instrume? the expectation that their proficiency will earn them a living. Music used to be a pleasant, honorable and fairly profitable means of livelihood. It will remain so for the few who are fortunate, but the many will suffer because of the almost total mechanization of enter- tainment. A single orchestra now may supply lyric and instrumental art for hundreds of theaters at a time, and once these programs will have been recorded they may be repro- duced ad infinitum and the players who performed them may go home, box up their fiddles, horns and saxo- phones and take a long lay-off— “without pay.” What with phono- graphs, radios and sound films, the need for the mere fugitive programs of the ordinary soloist or orchestra is departed.

(A Broadway orchestra manager, Bert Lown, Js suing Rudy Vallee, alleging that he taught him the sob which has made his singing such a hit over the radio.) | Q. Now then, Mr. Lown, when did you. first see Rudy Vallee? A. In the year of 1927. Q. What was his condition at that time? A. He was just a Yale boy with a dented saxophone and all the words of “Boola-Boola.” Q. What did he want? A. He wanted a job in an orchestra. Q. Did he express any desire to sing? A. No; that came later. Q. How was his voice. A. It was fair; but it had no sob. Q. Now then, wherg did Mr. Vallee get the sob, which has since made him @ great radio star? A. I taught it to him. Q. How? A. I'd sob and then he'd sob after me. We put in long hours at it. Q. How did he sob at first? A. He was terrible. There was a time when I thought we'd have to cut out the sob and put in a gurgle. Q. How was he at gurgling? A. Not much better. I had him go back to the sob after a couple of trials. Q. What made you so persistent in your efforts to put a sob into his voice? A. I thought the time was ripe for it. Orchestra leaders had tried every- thing else. — , Q. Up to the time you and Vallee got together there had been no’ great night. club sobbers? * — . +. A. Only among the customers. Q. How long was it before Mr. Val- lee acquired a sob sufficient to meet with your requirements? af Bay —* was a —* hard strug- e. I was ting pretty discouraged and one day I decided to have it out PHILLIPS | with him. I called him into my private office and talked with him straight from the shoulder. I said, “Rudy, you're not giving me your best sob.” : Q. What did he say? A. He said, “Mr. Lown, I am giving you the best sob in my system.” Q. Then what did you say? A. I said, “You’re holding out on me, Rudy; but I'll give you one more chance. Give me the best sob you've got, or out you go.” Q. What happened then? ‘ A. Nothing. But a few days later he came bounding into my office with his face aglow and shouted, “Bert, I’ve got it!” “Got what?” I asked him. “The sob,” he replied. “Are you positive?” I asked: “It came to me all of a sudden in the night,” he said. Q. What did you do next? A. I locked all the doors and I said to Rudy, “Kid, lemme hear you.” Well, I never heard a better sob tn my life. The minute I heard it I knew he was made. I had him sign a contract at «ice giving me a per- centage of his earnings for five yea:s The rest is history. Q. Has Re carried out this alleged agreement? | A. No. Q. What effect has this had on you? A. Every time I Msten in on the radio I hear somebody making big- money sobbing. If it isn’t Rudy it’s one’ of his\5,000 imitators. It's just about killing me! Q.

This will be a favorable date for those whose work demands reflection and deep study. Business undertak- ings will not be put over easily, as you are bound to meet with both op- position and enmity. Determination and courage are both essential if you intend to win out. The child born on this August 29th will be of a very sensitive na- ture, If will shrink from criticism and unfold with praise. It will be very affectionate, and love will be an essential factor for its happiness You have brilliant and clever ideas of success, but you do not get any- where because you do not act. To make ideas persistent enough to take form in action, it is necessary that they be vitalized by feeling and emotion. You think things, but do not feel them. Your heart and your hand must accompany your head, if you expect material results from your mental efforts. You are studious. you are observ- ing and you can think; but you do not make practical use of your knowl- edge. The chief faults which you should guard against are being rest- less and unsettled. You seldom stay “put.” Many of your efforts are a foolish waste, because you pull up root before the fruits of your labors are born. Your lucky days of the week are Sunday, Monday and Friday, and, when possible, you should carry out your chief plans and ideas on one of these days, especially on a Friday. Your lucky colors are cream, white and all shades of green. A great deal of romance will be at- tached to your life, but the affairs of your heart will not be permanent in character. Congenial surroundings are abso- lutely essential to your happiness. You are not adaptable enough to “fit in” everywhere and feel at home. The little luxuries of life must accompany you everywhere.

Are Urged Counsel Webster Proposes Amendment Eliminat- ing Sectional Represen- tation on Commission; Defines Station Also. / Amendments to the radio act of 1927 which eliminate sectional rep- resentation on the Radio Commission and would modify the provision which demands equal allocation of broad- casting licenses. and frequencies among the five zones are pro by Bethuel M. Webster, general coun- sel of the commission, in a letter ad- dressed to #nator James Couzens, chairman of the committee on inter- state commerce, and made public yes- terday. The letter also contains pro- posals for changes in the Couzens bill for the creation of a communica- tions commission. The amendments proposed are in- tended to remedy specific defects en- countered in the administration of the radio act of 1927, and they also embody the personal opinion, of Mr. Webster. No stand is ‘taken for or against the creation of the commu- nications commission. While the suggested amendments maintain the essential features of the zone system, Mr. Webster proposes to enlarge the power of the President to permit the appointment of any quali- fied citizen of the United States as a member of the Radio Commission. As to the modification of the terms of the Davis amendment, which re- quires equal allocation of broadcast- ing licenses and frequencies among the several zones, Mr. Webster says: ¢* * * “The commission shal] make such distribution of licenses, frequen- cles, hours of operation and power among the several States and commu- nities as to provide an equitable dis- tribution of good radio reception among the same.” In reference to the antitrust pro- visions of the radio act of 1927 and the Couzens bill, Mr. Webster’s pro- posed amendments indicate he feels that a sufficient deterrent against the formation of combinations in re- straint of trade and monopoly is contained in the Sherman act, the Clayton act, and the Federal Trade Commission act. He favors the elim- ination of section 17 of the act, which forbids certain agreements be- tween and mergers of radio and wire companies. If it is retained, he says, it should be clarified s0 as “to show specifically its application to civil as well as criminal guilt.” If Mr. Webster’s proposals are fol- lowed, the Couzens bill will include a provision for the transfer of the functions and the property of the Radio Division of the Department of Commerce to the Commission on Communications. Such a provision would result in giving the commis- sion the power to license station op- erators, to assign call letters, and to carry on a radio inspection and po- lice service. Other suggestions offered in the letter are: “No vacancy in the commission shall impair the right of the remain- ing commissioners to exercise all the powers of the commission. A ma- jority of the members thereof shall constitute a quorum for the trans- action of business.” That a provision be made for radio experts in thre engineering division of the commission, which hag hereto- fore had to rely on experts borrowed from other departments and bureaus. It might be well to require licenses for Government stations subject to the power of the President to set aside or modify any action of the commission ‘with reference to such stations. That construction permits be elim- inated, as they have outlived their usefulness. Mr. Webster has offered a new pro- vision specifically allowing a hearing in opposition to any application which may be before the commission. Heretofore, under the radio act of 1927, the commission has been able to take final action without consult- ing the interests of licensees who may be affected by the granting of an application. The meaning of the phrase “radio station” has never been settled. Some say it means a single trans- mitter. Some say it includes a trans- mitter, a band of frequencies used in connection therewith, and a set of call letters. Mr. Webster would define it as follows: “A radio station within the mean- ing of this act is all the apparatus employed at a single.location for the purpose of radio communication. If remote control is employed, all the apparatus used in connection there- with shall be considered to be part of the station. A radio station M- cense shall authorize the use and operation of such apparatus on a frequency or frequencies and with power therein designated.” Baby Mine GOODHESS! 1.

SAO vi @ 9-4-2 y 4 a T Auction Bridge the bidding A of the above hand would be passes by South and West and three Spades by North, which would obtain the contract. At Contract Bridge South would pass initially and East and West would pass every time; North would bid two Spades, South three and North would jump to four. East in both games would be tempted to double North’s original Spade bid informatorily as he has great strength in the other ‘three suits; but it would be unsound for him to do so because the double would force West to a high bid, and it is dangerous for an Aceless player * force a bid of three or four from a partner who already has passed. When the hand was played witn North the Deciarer, East opened with the King of Clubs. North won, led three rounds of Spades and. then tried the Diamond finesse. When it won, he led the Ace of Diamonds from: dummy, but subsequently was obliged to lose one Heart, one Dia- mond and two Clubs. Consequently he failed to go game. Could you have done better? THE ANSWER. This is a case in which it is es- sential for an entry to be kept in the dummy. Declarer’s only chance for making game js that the adverse Diamonds are evenly divided. If so, a thirteenth Diamond can be hed if South has an entry. Conseq tly Declarer shOuld have adopted one of two methods: (a) on the first round of Diamonds he should have played smal] from.dummy, permitting the adversaries to win that trick cheaply, and then have tried the fimesse on the second round; or (b) having taken the finesse on the first round of Diamonds, he should have led a small Diamond from dummy, losing the second Diamond trick, but keep- ing the Ace for the third round. Either of these plans would have given him game.

The board will also make a similar advance in cases where grain has not been sold through an exchange but definitely contracted for to a reputable buyer.” This action of the farm board wes hailed by grain men attending the organization meeting of the Farm- ers’ National Grain Corporation as the greatest step forward for the direct benefit of the grain growers since the organization of the board. ‘Grain Men End Meeting.

They will serve as di- rectors until the election of their successors by the stockholders of the mew corporation. “As soon as the articles of incor- ration have been approved by the eral Fatm Board they will be filed. Then the board of directors will meet to elect officers, adopt by- laws, and to employ a general man- ager to start the business.” Details of the proposed set-up of the national grain sales agency will not be disclosed pending perusal of the plans by counsel for the farm St. Paul, Aug. 28 (A.P.).—The Fed- of the North Dakota and Montana Wheat Growers’ Association for a di- ‘rect loan to assist in moving this year’s crop, F.

Special te The Washington Post. ITTSBURGH, Pa:, Aug. 28.—With startling suddenness the news was flashed on Pittsburgh base- ball fans today that Manager Donie Bush, of the Pittsburgh Pirates, had resigned his position and that Coach Jewel Ens had been appointed in his place for the remainder of the season. The resignation, made upon the re- turn of the team from its Eastern trip, was accepted by President Bar- ney Dreyfus, who this morning an- nounced the appointment of Ens. While no official word hag been forthcoming from the Pirate owner as to the reasons for Bush quitting his job, friends close to the latter here have for some days been pre- dicting some move that would change his status with the club. It was stated: that Bush, disgusted with the behavior of certain players on the club’s Eastern trip and the lackadaisi- cal manner in which others have been performing on the field, sought per- mission to discipline the offenders but that President Dreyfuss refused to sanction such action. Plan to Bench Comorosky Balked by Owner.

EW YORK, Aug. 28 (A.P.).—The Athletics gained an even break in their two-game series against the Yankees by trimming the cham- pions by 9 to 7 here today in a bat- ting duel. It’ was a see-saw battle in which each side called upon four pitchers. After the Athletics gained the upper hand with five runs in the seventh Connie Mack sent in Bob Grove to hold it, which he did despite a spell of wildness which filled the bases in the eighth.

Babe Ruth returned to the game after departing in the first inning yesterday due to a cold in his back. and larruped George Walberg for his thirty-sixth home run in the first inning.

When George Burns drove in three Athletic runs with a double in the fourth he ended a run of 22 scoreless innings for the Macks. The victory sent the lead of the Athletics back to thirteen games.

GOTT—PRESIDENT 4 NATS-Y ANKS IN 2 GAMES TODAY Marberry and Hadley Nominated; Spencer Shows Worth. By FRANK H. YOUNG. HORTLY. after midnight last nights Manager Walter Johnson and his Nationals entrained for New York, where they meet the Yank- ees in four games in three days, be- ginning with a double-header this afternoon. The Nats enjoy quite an edge over the world’s champs this sea- son and are confidently looking for- ward to: taking the odd game of the series. Fred. Marberry, who has been quite effective against the Huggmen this season, will hurl in /one of today’s games, with Irving Hadley likely to get the call im the other, although Bob Burke is a _ possibility. The young southpaw has been bothered with a sore salary wing, but it has been improving rapidly of late and Johnson may decide to.use him in- stead of Hadley, who, for some rea- son or other, has been generally in- effective this season. Umpire “Walk-a-Mile” Campbell saved Catcher Spencer from an error yesterday in the Sox’ first when Rothrock stole. The throw was poor, but the ball hit the guesser on his right hand and dropped dead, holding the runner at second. Pitcher Thomas however, being a good sport, was not willing to take advantage of this break and immediately cut loose with a wild pitch. which let Rothrock carry on to third. Red Sox Shift Game To Braves’ Field. Word was received by the Nationals yesterday that their Labor Day dou- ble-header with the Red Sox in Bos- ton will be played at Braves Field, in- stead of at Fenway Park Hub fans, it seems, are all “het up” over the manner in which the Carrigans per- formed out West and the shift in parks was decided upon in order to take care of a crowd in excess of the Fenway Park capacity. When two big-league teams refused to waive on Catcher Roy Spencer some time ago, so that the Nationa's could farm him to Tris Speaker's Newark Internationals, they did Man- ager Johnson quite a favor. Since then, the back stopover has been used regularly and has shown himself to be a mighty nifty player. Not only is Spencer hitting harder than when he first joined the club but he also has handled his pitchers well and has shown that he knows what it is al! about while working behind the plate His clever blocking of the plate when Regan tried to score in the eighth on Tuesday saved the game for the Nats. as the runner appeared to Have Rice’s peg beaten. It was Spencer's sincle which broke a 2-2 deadlock in the fourth yesterday. Major League Statistics AMERICAN LEAGUE. STANDING OF THE TEAMS. Won. Lost YESTERDAY’S RESULTS. WASHINGTON, 7: Boston, 4.

Tilden-Hunter, Doeg:| Lott, Coggeshall- Coen Also Win. By WILLIAM R. KING (Associated Press»Sports Writer.) ROOKLINE, Mass., Aug. 28 (A.P.). The two top-ranking teams in the forty-eighth national doubles tennis championship, that of Johnny Van Ryn and Wilmer Allison, the Brit- ish and Davis cup champions, and Henry W. “Bunny” Austin, and J. 8 Olliff, of England, met with crushing defeats here today in the quarter finals play, on the Longwood turf courts. Both were overwhelmed in five-set matches, Berkely Bell and Lewis WN. White, both of Austin, Tex., defeating the Davis Cup stars, 6—-4, 4—6, 6—4, 4—6, 8—6, while W. S. Coen, jr., of Kansas City, and his equally youth- ful partner, Harris Coggshall, of Des Moines, Iowa, defeated the British players, 6—4, 2—6, 1—6, 16-—14, 6—2. As a result Bell and White will play with the mid-Western youths in to- morrow’s semifinal round. Hunter and Tilden Are Victors. In the other two quarter finals matches, Gregory Mangin, of Newark, N. J.. and Norman Farquarson, Soutn African Davis player, spotted Bill Til- den and Frank Hunter, the first two sets before they rallied with a bang. They then played the 1927 champions off their feet to square the match but let down in the fifth set when Far- quarson lost his service,a break which gave the veterans the victory by Score of 6—1, 6—2, 3—6, 3—6, 7 George R. Lott, jr., of Chicago, and John H. Doeg, Santa Monica, Calif., gained a semifinal bracket by defeat- ing F. X. Shields, of New York, and Donald Strachan, Philadelphia, in straight sets, 12—10, 6—4, 6—2. Ray Thompson Stopped By German Champion Fairview, N. J., Aug. 28 (A.P.).— Dr. Ludwig Hymann, holder of the heavyweight championship of Ger- many, knocked out Ray Thompson, of Seattle, in the third round of their ten round fight here tonight. The German dropped his opponent for the count with a flurry of blows early in the third round, after having him in distress toward the end of the sec- ond. Thompson seldom could land effectively. Haymann weighed 201 pounds, Thompson 191%. Tex Florida Holdings Are Worth $169,572 Miami, Fla., Aug. 28 (A.P.).—While Mrs. Maxine Elliott. Rickard, wife of the late George L. (Tex) Rickard, says she is facing financial straits at her home in Flushing, Long Island, the Florida portion of the Rickard eState, as revealed in probate records, ap- pears to be in a healthy condition according to court attaches. While Mr. Rickard’s holdings in Florida were not listed in the inven- tory filed here June 15, his personal belongings were valued at $169,572.48, with minor claims against the estate approximating less than $10,000. A major claim of $72,000 has been filed by a Miami construction company against the Miami Beach Dog Track, in which Rickard was chief investor, but this suit is directed against the racing corporation rather than the estate. The Rickard will, after directing the payment of all debts, leaves $50,- 000 worth of Florida real estate and all of Mr. Rickard’s personal prop- erty in this State to the widow. Singer 7-to-5 Choice Over Chocolate — — — — 50,000 — to Pay $200,000 at Bout Tonight. Betting on “Natural” Totals $500,000, Is Belief. By EDWARD J. NEIL (Associated Press Sports Writer). N the stuff of which champions are made, will all but fill the spacious Polo Grounds tomorrow night for the first “natural’’ of the outdoor fight season. One is Al Singer, fast, deadly punching Jewish boy from the Bronx, who knocked out Andre Routis, the featherweight title holder, in his last important match. The other is the Ebon Enigma from Havana, the Dusky Kid Chocolate. They are scheduled to box twelve rounds at 128%, pounds. For a full year, the: paths of this pair of youngsters have threatened to cross and clear the way for one to continue on to title heights. Choco- late has fought each of his 154 matches without a defeat either close to or below the bantamweight limit of. 118 pounds. Singer, however, is a full fledged 126-pounder growing steadily into the lightweight class. The weight digerence hitherto has kept them apart. sparkling kids, without a title Pair Boasts Tremendous New York Following. Arguments as to their respective fighting abilities have been bitter and long drawn out for many months. Each has a tremendous local follow- ing. Wagering on the match is be- lieved to have reached $500,000, with Singer a bit favored at 7 to 5. So heavy has been the demand for park- ing space’ within the big National League ball park that a crowd of 50,- 000 probably will pay $200,0CO or more to see the battle. While Singer, only nineteen years old, has risen to the more spectacu- lar heights on occasion, Chocolate has impressed critics as one of the greatest little Negro fighting ma- chines of all times. The paten* leather “keed” has whipped Fidel Labarba, Bushy Graham and Vidal Gregorio for his outstanding victories and only Joe Scalfaro, probably the heaviest hitting of the present day bantams, gained a draw with the grinning Cuban. Scalfaro all but knocked out Chocolate with the first punch of that fight. Singer’s Record Marred By Lone Knockout. The Negro, too, is not yet 20 years of age. He is a sharp, clean puncher, elusive as a shadow, and a master boxer. In addition to all that he thrills the crowd with. his showman- ship and eagerness to rip and tear when the going gets hot. The dull spot in the career of Singer, labeled another Benny Leon- ard, is a knockout at the hands of Ignacio Fernandez, rugged little Filipino whom Chocolate whipped decisively. The black haired, fight- ing Jewish lad came back from thet reversal to crush Routis, never be- fore knocked out, in two rounds. The featherweight title was not at stake as Singer came in overweight. The Bronx sensation also is a smart, fast boxer end hits much harder with his -right hand than Chocolate does Singer has a draw to his credit with Tony Canzoneri and through the winter specialized in knocking out his rivals as fast as they could be marched before him. Only two years ago both Singer and Chocolate started their careers in $50 preliminaries at the small clubs here. Snyder, Maryland U. Hero, Will Join N.

HE loss of the United States Ma- rine Corps will be the gain of the New York Giants professional football team in the case of Gerald (Snitz) Snyder, University of Mary- land back field hero who has indi- cated that he will accept the most recent offer of the New York team and turn professional.

Their selection was announced Dy James E. Pixlee, new athletic director, who also announced that he will act as head coach. Connaughton and his achievements on the gridiron are well known to Capitol City fans, but the great record of Walsh is not far overshadowed by the former Hilltop guard. Walsh graduated from Minnesota in 1927 after three years of varsity football. In 1925 he gained recogni- tion as running guard, gaining a place on Walter Eckersall’s All-Amer- ican team as well as being naméd to the mythical All-Western eleven. Walsh Recommended by Coach Spears. ~ Dr. Clarence W. Spears, who went to Minnesota from West Virginia as head coach, converted Walsh into an end in 1926.

NOTHER one of those “dog-eat- dog” contests was staged at the Griffith Stadium Yesterday be- tween the Nationals and Red Sox, and again the Washington Club won, ‘this time by a 7-to-4 count. Incidentally, it was the Nats’ fourth straight victory over the Oarrigans and Pitcher Myles Thomas’ fifth triumpbb in a row. Thomas granted twelve hits, which was one more than the Nationa!s were able to obtain from the com- By | bined offerings of Milton Gaston and Bill (Beverly) Bayne, but he man- aged to keep the alien bingles fur- ther separated than did the enemy pitchers. The game was a thriller from the start until the eighth. when the Nats broke a 4-all deadlock with a three-run rally. which gave them the victory and which sent ‘“jastcn, who tolled here last year. to tne showers before a single out was made. Not only did the score constantly shift, with the Nats overcoming an alien two-round lead in the first. going ahead in the fourth. increasing tieir advantage in the fifth. and seeing it Wiped out in the seventh. but there were any number of great plays made.

HE Naval Hospital Nine barely nosed out the Calvary Baptist Team, 5 to 4, in a thrilling see- oa w battle in the City series being waged on the Terminal grounds yes- terday by scoring two runs in tls ninth, and overcoming a one-run lead held by the Baptists, and then squelching a threatening Churchmen rally to end the proceedings. The victory ties the Hospital Nine with Pullman for the lead. A costly error by Davidson in the opening inning, when he dropped a throw from Berger, which was fol- lowed by a double to the center field corner by Miller, gave the Naval lads the first run of the contest. The rer then resolved into a pitchers’ tle, with the honors even until the seventh frame, when the Baptists hopped on Roberts’ offerings to gar- ner three tallies and take a momen- In this inning, Bowman took second on - Davidsons hard single to right and scored the tying run when Darne opped a. looper single into right eld. Davidson took third on this play. Darne advanced to second on a short passed ball. On the next play, Howk, the Navy catcher, called for a pitch-out, but his strategy failed when Forrest stepped across the plate and laid down a perfect squeee, scoring Davidson. When King, the initia] sacker, held the ball, Darne — kept. on toward home and was safe by dint of a perfect slide. Wormesley’s Wildness Helps Hospital Nine. A wild streak by Womersley in the next frame proved of great assistance to his rivals in tying the score. With one gone in the eighth, Luckie singled to center and advanced on a wild pitch. Doc Hicks walked, and when the wiry portsider of the Baptists threw wildly into center field in an effort to catch Luckie off second, Luckies scored, while on Forrest’s mo- mentary fumble in the outfield Hicks sped on to third, from where hescored when Big Miller uncorked his sec- ond timely bingle of the fray, to again tie the score. The contest again seemed lost for the fighting Sailors when Womersley got a single when his bounder hopped over Hicks’ head, and Bowman’s dam- aging double down the right field line scored Hilleary, who had forced Womersley on the previous play. But the Naval Hospital team was not to be denied, and won the game in the ninth on a single by Schuster, Howk’s sacrifice, Roberts’ ordinary single to center that bounded away from Forrest for a triple, and King’s timely single. _The Sailors then pro- ceeded to fill the bases, but Ray Da- vidson, who had succeeded Womersley on the mound at this stage, applied the brakes and no further scoring took place. The Calvary Nine will battle the Pullman Nine today at 4:15 on the Terminal grounds, and must win to stay in ¢he series. AB Stearns. 1b Berger,ss. : W’'sley.rf.p. Rum bold,ct Hilleary, ichuster,lf.
