States, was the moving apirit of the mufihy and {s credited with eleven of the killings, including’ the teking of his own Wife. His. aids, all.of whom Me calmly put to death when the futility of. further resistance was realized, were James Pardue, A. H. Davis and George (Red) Riley. Seven guards, held as hostages by the: convict leaders, were slaughtered and four other guar’s wounded be- fore Daniels ended the mutiny early Priday by committing suicide. Stories told today by convicts and surviving guards indicated that few other prisoners were in sympathy with the plans of Daniels and his handful of followers, although no op- Position was placed ‘in the way of the. bloody revolt leader. Four revolvers, a rifle and a. half dozen murderous-looking knives were the weapons with which the muti- neers turned on the unarmed guards and puf the penitentiary into the throes of one of the worst outbreaks in American prison history. How the guns got into the hands of the convicts and what outside as- sistance they had in planning the up-’ rising ‘were questions which officials were attempting to determine. There seemed little doubt but that the riot had been a carefully planned affair. The Associated Press correspond- ents talked to scores of convicts and in nearly every case was told that the atmosphere inside the prison had been .électrified for. possibly two weeks before the mutiny broke out Thursday. : “There was nothing you could put your finger on,” on, trusty said, “but we all sensed that something was up. . - “There were rumors that guns had been smuggled into the prison.

PANTAGES Probation Plea Is Planned by Convicted Wife of The- ater Magnate. ‘HUSBAND INDICTED AGAIN Los Angeles, Oct. 5. (A.P.)—Mr..and Mrs. Alexander Pantages, the hus- band on trial for a criminal offense against a 17-year-old girl, and the wife facing a prison sentence for killing: a-mryji in an automobile ac- cident, felt. the stern pinch of the law today from a court of justice and a county grand jury. The wife, ill, reclining in a whee] chair before Superior Judge Carlos Ss. Hardy, heard her plea for a new trial rer jected as the jurist delivered alter- native rebukes to the State and de- | fense and censured a pastor for his remarks. Walking beside his wife from the courtroom, the multi-millionaire theater owner, shoulders drooping and head powed, learned of a sudden turn in his trial in which a grand juty brought a secret indictment for alleged interference with a State wit- Mrs. Pantages, on a statement of Dr. Benjamin Blank, county physi- cian, retained her freedom on $50,000 bail because she is “danger- ously ill,” and incarceration “might mean death.” Judge Hardy permit- ted filing of an application for pro- bation, which will be heard October 25 coincident with sentence. For the death of Juro Rokumoto last June, she might be imprisoned from one to ten years. The defense, in an argument for a new trial, attacked the State for withholding expert testimony as re- buttal of defense evidence at Mrs Pantages’ trial and Judge Hardy fol-~ lowed with a condemnation of such procedure. He declared, however, that the verdict was justified and de- nounced the defense for its argu- ment that the prosecution “con- fused the jury by filing a second-de- gree murder charge which permitted Ohe of three verdicts—manslaughter, second-degree murder, or acquittal.” The Rev: R: P. Shuler drew the court’s ire for his remark of alleged irregularities in the trial and a fur- ther--failure-to--answer promptly a subpena for today’s hearing. The pastor’s accusations were denied from the witness stand by Ira Gay, a juror, and Charles Bryant, court bailiff. The Rev. Mr. Shuler is awaiting a bench decision on contempt-of-court charges placed against him for the state- ments. Ivan R. T. Samsonoff, a State wit- ness, caused the grand jury indict- ment in the husband's trial by assert- ing that a private detective told him he would be “taken care of” if he gave Pantages a “break.” The disclosure added another charge to the State’s previous. accu- sations that Pantages had attempted to muzzle witnesses following an al- leged attack on Eunice Pringle, 4 dancer, last August in his private office. Pantages is at. liberty on $25,000 bail. Trial of the charges opened last Tuesday.

N.S.).—The American Federation of Labor will not be officially represent- ed at the dinner to Premier Ramsay MacDonald in New York Friday, President William Green announced tonight in making public the fact that the committee in charge had in- vited him to be present or to desig- nate a committee to represent the federation. “T have replied that I can not comply with the request,” he said. The refusal to designate a group to represent the federation at the din- ner has no connection with Mac- Donald’s declination to attend the federation’s convention while in this city. As understood here the intention of Morris Hillquit, Abraham Shihlacoff and others in charge of the New York affair is to make it a Socialist-Labor demonstration at which an American Labor party. will federation is opposed to Socialism and to a Labor party and in the ordi- nary routine ‘would have nothing to do with such a demonstration, though many. holding membership in the federation will be preserit ut in= dividuals. If this were not enough the fact that Norman Thomas, Socialist can- didate for mayor of New York, is scheduled for a prominent part in the affair would suffice, there being no intention on the part of federa- tion leaders to assist his candidacy.

There probably has never been such a meeting ag this before, yet there is no reason why there should not have been. It strongly suggests the meetings inaugurated by Ambas- sador Dawes when he left the steamer from the United States with his underslung pipe a few months ago and, in the. language of the street, beat it for the Scottish Highlands that are the retreat of Mr. MacDon- ald. While it probably was not 60, it was as if he just went: over there and knocked on the door, and the Premier greeted him: “Why, hello, look who's here!” So anxious is Mr, Hoover to give his entertainment of the British pre- mier such an atmosphere—the at- mosphere of merely a neighborly call —that he resented the inevitable fol- lowing of him by newspaper men and it did look as though some of them would break their necks before they negotiated the tortuous 100 miles after him at Dbreak-neck speed over the Virginia countryside, up one hill and down anothef, an endless stream of asphalt ribbon’ opening out be- fore them-—Sugar .Loaf Mountain seemingly always before them and yet never reached.

Because it was within the Blue Ridge range of song and beauty that the Hatfields and the McCoys and the Strothers have at times ran amuck in seeking to invoke the law of their tribal clans. It is, in fact, a land of many breeds and minds, the severe residents of the mountainside and the aristocracy of the culture on the other hand. Near Accident at Crossing. There was a near serious accident to mar the way, Just above Madi 1, where the Chesapeake & Ohio crosses the road. The President’s car, with him and Mr. MacDonald, crossed safely, but a train was so close that the following secret service car had to come to a sharp halt. Mrs. Hoover and Miss Ishbel h.ac- Donald did not come with the first part of the party, but followed by themselves, or rather with their per- sonal secret service car. And many miles back, where tc road b°*tns to turn definitely up- ward, they stopped.

A tempo- rary bond, amounting to $5,000, in favor of Mrs. Annie Wrenn which is due November 6, 1929, was ordered renewed for six months. Williams was ordered to inves- tigate the request for transportation for the school children from Clarks Crossing to Vienna. and from Peacox Station to McLean. The county superintendent. of schools was authorized to purchase | enough new desks and, chairs to fill the needs of the schools of the coun- ty and to also purchase tires and tubes for the county school buses. The question of liability of the board in regard to the drivers of school buses owned and chartered by them was taken up. A letter from State Superintendent of Schools Har- ris Hart was read, in which he stated that the school board would not be ‘| Mable for persons injured in an acci- dent unless it was shown that. they were negligent in the selection of drivers. He recommended, however, that the board take out liability in- surance, Transfer Town Pupils. A motion was passed to close the school at Merrifield and to transfer the nine pupils and the teacher to transfer will be announced when ar- rangements have. been made for their transportation and room found for them in the Fairfax School. A delegation from Forestville asked that transportation be furnished to the pupils of the third and fourth year high school at McLean. They were assured that some provision would be made on this matter. The board authorized that. the $3,000 borrowed by the Falls Church district from the Providence district previous to July 1, 1929, be paid as soon as funds were’available, and this money be used in paying of the $5,000 note owed by the Providence district to Mrs. A. Wrenn. The motion was passed to pay $2,500 tuition to the Falls Church School the same ag was done in the school year of 1928-1929, one-half payable January 1,.1930 and the other half April 1, 1930. place the roof on the temporary school building at McLean which is now used as a laboratory for the high school.

This bus now used in Fairfax will be transferred. to the Floris route. The Floris bus -will—be--used on the route from the Forestville’ Schoo] to. McLean. This wil] take care of requests of the For- eine delegation. In an effort to dry up the county around Fort Humphreys, Federal revenue agents fell upon a still. and arrested Waddy Hicks.

Ambassador Dawes expected, on the 26th, that the last reply from the do- minions would have been received, tions could be issued the following day, on the evening of which Mac- Donald started on his American trip. After his visit to the foreign office on the 26th, following his talk with the premier, there was still no thought of a hitch. This is shown by the fact that at the boat train in London on the 27th it was authorita- tively stated to me by both British and American personages that the delay was as temporary as it was un- expected, that the other powers would be asked to London probably on the following Monday, and certainly while the premier was on the ocean. Inquiries here make clear: that the same expectation that immediate in- vitations to the other powers were in prospect was entertained in Washing- ton eight days ago. Invitations Not Sent Out. On Monday, on the Berengaria, it was authoritatively learned that be- fore the boat sailed, satisfactory re- Ty concerning the draft invitation ad been received from all the do- minions excepting one, and it was added that the invitations would be sent forward immediately. Since then, there has been com- plete silence in both British and American camps, broken only by the admission yesterday that the invita- tions are not yet ready to go forward. The statements made above are facts admitted in the highest quar- ters and are not open to question. In the absence of any explanations, only inference remains as to the reasons inference remains as to the reasons for the invitations before MacDonald had met the President. Reasons For Delay Sugegsted. Since it is known that the United States and Britain had agreed on a text, the situation admits of only two explanations. Either the one re- maining British Dominion that had not been heard from when the Pre- mier left London hag raised difficul- ties, or the delay is due’ to represen- tations made by France, Italy or Japan. It is extremely unHkely that any British Dominion can have raised any objections that would cause more than the slightest embarrass- ment in London. The only question involved respecting the Dominions is their status at the five-power con- ference, and it hes already been agreed that they are to have repre- sentation. Japan is probably not responsible for tne hitc Tokio weeks ago let it be known semiofficially that she would send a. delegation provided she were given sufficient notice, and this announcement - was public, while in addition, Ambassador Mat- suidara in London, communicated in advance of the invitation, his gov- ernment’s pleasure, as well as Japan's intention, to ask an increas cruiser ratio and her concern that the cruiser figures suggested in Lon- don and Washington should be re- duced. France or Italy May Be Tardy. The inference, then, is a strong one, although reached by a process of elimination and not confirmed by | British or American statesmen here, that developments have occurred dur- the past eight days affecting the attitude of either France, or Italy, or both, which made it inadvisable to send them the invitation agreed upon by America and Britdin, at any rave before further and lengthy exchanges of views. That these developments are of importance may be assumcd from the known anxiety in both Lon- don and Washington that the invi- tations should be issued before Mac- Donald and Hoover got to grips. The only alteration in the official reception program was an unsched- uled visit by Secretary Stimson to Premier MacDonald at the British Embassy Friday night. As no time had been set aside for this, the inter- view trencheq upon the half hour that had been set aside for Mac- Donald’s talk with the Washington: correspondents. That something of importance was discussed is probabie from the fact that this visit antici- pated MacDonald’s formal call upon the Secretary of State yesterday. Stimson may have discussed what MacDonald was going to say to the correspondents. that he wanted to explain to.Mac- Donald whatever’ it is that has hap- pened, while MacDonald was at sea, affecting the invitations to the Lon- don conference. There was no op- portunity in New York or on Lat | special train trip to Washington for MacDonald and Stimson to have ary private talk.

France and Italy would accept the in- vitation to London without demur. It is not known upon what that con- fidence was based. For either power to come to London, or indeed any- where else, to talk naval limitation, would involve a complete change in policy from that officially announced in the recent past. France Once Declined Parley. France, in refusing the American invitation to a conference with simi- lar aims at Geneva two years ago, re- plied that “the limitations of naval armaments can not be undertaken without taking into consideration the Manner in which it is pro to meet the problems of limiting land and air armaments.” Italy, at the same time, in response to an invitation identically wordcd, replied with unusual frankness, in a dispatch written by Mussolini as for- eign minister, that “Italy by reason of her unfavorable geographical posi- tion can not expose herself without grave risks to a binding lim/tation of her maritime armaments, which are already insufficient to her needs of defense.” It may be, of course, that Prance and Italy, impressed by the spectacle of Britain and America reaching a parity agreement, have completely reyersed their considered policies of the past, and are prepared to sail their ships of state in exactly the. opposite directions. There seems to have been some confidence in Wash- ington, though I found little in in- formed quarters in London, and none in dispatches from Paris or Rome, that the Latin’ nations, despite their embittered naval rivalry in the Medi- terranean, are now ready to follow the good example set by the Anglo- Saxon powers. Hopes May be Premature. It is also possible that Great Britain and the United States, having agreed upon the terms of an invitation to London, not without difficulty, have discovered that such hopes were pre- mature. France and Italy have known for several weeks that the invitation was being hammered out. It would be a courteous act, and one that the foreign office and the State Department would appreciate, if either or both of these powers, un- able to accept the invitation draft, should convey an informal intimation to this effect, in advance. I have no information that either Paris or Rome has said, .in effect, “Don’t send us that invitation, as you have it drawn up now, for we | Should only have to turn it down, and that would make bad feeling.” But if this should prove to be the case, the puzzling problem of why the invitations have not been sent out, when American and British states- men had them practically reedy ten days ago, would be solved. General Agreement Presupposed. Then the task would presumably devolve upon British and American diplomacy. to find out upon what terms, if any, France and Italy would come to a conference in London, and if they would not come to London, where they would come, if anywhere. It can be stated with some confi- dence that, up to ten days ago, neith- er France nor Italy had been asked by the British, formally or informally, whether they would come tw a& con- ference. This course was followed designedly, because it was felt that a refusal in advance would introduce an unnec- essary and premature note of unre- te CVG BODIES BAND TO LENO NERD AI Washington Organizations Hope to Extend Field of His Opportunity. WHITES OUSTING MANY Through the instrumentality of. J. A. Jackson, of the Small Business Unit of the Department of Commerce, the Federation of Civic Associations, the colored Baptist Ministers Alliance, the Twelfth Street Branch Young Men’s Christian Association and the press have been enlisted in a general survey of this community with a view to providing employment for quali- fled Negroes in places of responsibil- ity. A series of meetings have been planned for study of the problem from two phases, one being an in- creased efficiency of Negro workers, and the other the opening of avenues of service differing in kind from those in which Negroes have been employed heretofore. Already the suryey has disclosed that former exclusive Negro employments, restaurant waiting, bar- bering, shoemaking, and similar pur- suits, have been taken over by white men and women here and throughout the South. Jackson hag set forth that less than 3 per cent of the Negro popu- lation is in the merchandising trades, and a smaller percentage of Negroes patronizing colored merchants. A resolution was formulated yesterday, following a meeting of interested per- sons, asking the Department of Labor to make the survey here. This reso- lution will be presented by Robert N. Mattingly, principal of the Cardozo Business High School; Dean Kelly Miller, of Howard University, and Mary E. Cromwell. 1 Increased employment will be sought under the District -govern- ment, public utilities corporations, ality into the figures being discussed between the United States and Brit- ain, since those figures rest for their validity upon the somewhat venture- some presupposition of a general agreement. 2108 BANCROFT PLACE Ly te is a epigndia nea é. ieoatty locate Just ecticu and nn pe une distance of * ofitoe buildings and overn- ment departments It is very near both public and orivate schools ouse is constructed of te e. e. drooms., sit- ting vooms, ewe paths ane ano fireplace in each r IP you need a ne A home. or if you are in Washington only temporarily. let us show you this.

Maintaining that a better under- standing between England and the United States can only make for bet~- ter relations among al] nations. Premier MacDonald declared he wishes to eliminate every possibility of misunderstandings between the two English speaking. nations, and also ave the way for international friend- iness. ‘Upon his arrival, Friday. when he was greeted with honors usually reserved for kings, the prime minister stated that his mission was international peace and sought to dispel all suspicions which may at- tend his visit here, by declaring the meetings here could in no way be construed as a threat to any other nation. Starts Round of Calls. Early yesterday MacDonald started his round of official calls. Arriving at the Capitol about 10:40 o'clock, he went directly to the office of Vice President Curtis in the Capitol Build- ing,. where he greeted and conversed with the Vicé President. During his call therg, he also had the oppor- tunity to meet several senators, who happened to enter the office. Among them. wefe Senators Watson, of Indi- ana, the majority leader; Senator Moses, of New Hampshire, and Sena- tor Hiram Johnson, of California, Al- though the Senate was in session, the premier confined his visit to a formal call on the Vice President, and he will not meet with the Senate until Monday.* Calis Made at Capitol. When Representative. Porter, of Pennsylvania, chairman 6f the House foreign affairs committee, joined the party, MacDonald witH, Vice Presidént Curtis and Ambassador Sir Esme Howard, went to the Supreme Court, where the prime minister was re-. ceived by Chief Justice Taft and a friendly conference was held. When Premier MacDonald left the Supreme Court he was accompanied by Vice President Curtis, Porter and Sir Esme to the steps of the Senate wing bf the Capitol, where the distinguished visitor was awaited by a large group of cameramen. A crowd of several hundred persons also was on hand and roundly applauded MacDonald as he came out on the steps. The premier and Vice President Curtis, Porter and Sir Esme were photo- graphed many times and at the behest of the movietone operators MacDonald and the Vice President exchanged cor- dial greetings. Owing to the fact that Speaker Longworth of the House of Represen- tatives is in Cincinnati, ‘MacDonald did.not go to the House wing of the Capitol, as he had préviously plan- ned. He probably. will call on the Speaker tomorrow and be received on the floor of the House. After leaving the Capitol about 11:30 o’clock Premier MacDonajd, ac- companied by the British Ambassa- dor, went to the State Department where he paid an official call on Secretary Stimson. This call was duly made despite the fact that Britain's labor leader was met in New York and accompanied to Washington yesterday by Secretary Stimson. At 12:45 o’clock MacDonald and his party went back to the British Em- bassy for a “stag’’ luncheon, and a brief rest. Other Guests at Luncheon. Besides Premier MacDonald in whose honor the luncheon was given; those attending included: Sir Esme Howard, Vice President Curtis, the French’ Ambassador, the Italian Am- bassador, the Japanese Ambassador, Justice Stone, Senator Cutting, Sen- ator Capper, Bir Robert Vansittart, Lord Arnold, Tom Jones, Admiral Hugh Rodman, Admiral] Chas.

Béetk, Terrence Shone, Hume Wrong, Captain Godfrey, Willlam J. B. Ma- caulay, Willlam Hard, Commander Horton, Ronald Ian Campbell, Will- mot: Lewis, Michael Wright, and Thomas Archibald Stone. Shortly after 2 p. m., the prime minister and his daughter, Miss Ishbel MacDonald, went to the White House, where they will be guesta until Tuesday. Later in the afternoon they departed with President and Mrs. Hoover for the Chief Executive’s Blue Ridge Mountain camp for a week- énd outing during which the premier and President will start their straightforward discussion of the world relations which both statesmen desire to establish. They plan to re- main at the camp until early to- morrow. Mrs. Hoover and Ishbel Missed. A small crowd waiting at the north portico of the White House to wit- ness the departure of the _ dis- tinguished party was disappointed in not seeing Mrs. Hoover and Miss Mac- Donald, who left by way 6f the south portico and the rear grounds of the White House. The week-end party included Sec- retary and Mrs. Stimson, Sir Robert Van Sittart, the premier’s private sec- retary; Lawrence Richey, one of Presi- dent Hoover’s secretaries; Miss Ane Shankey, one of the President’s sten- fPographers and Lieut. Oomdr. Joel T Boone ths White House physician. Premier MacDonald in a formal statement yesterday thanked the American people for the many mes- sages of welcome which have poured in from over the country. Premier Cheered by Welcome. “The messages of weloome which I have received from all parts of the United States,” he said, “have touched me no less deeply than the unforget- table greeting which the citizens of New York and Washington were good enough to accord to me Friday. “Your greetings and your welcome are a greeting and.a welcome through me to the people of Great Britain, and I know that it will make their hearts full. “I hope to thank you as soon as I | | MACDONALD ViSiTS"} Miss - MacDonald Asserts She Is Having Great Fun Charmingly and With Disethens Aunwers Sechinie of Questions by Women News Writers—Sees Girl Scouts at Play—Many Engagements Ahead. ™ By EMMA PERLEY LINCOLN, Ishbel MacDonald met the expected of questions from ne yesterday with the easy dip macy which has characterized every interview she has given since landing on our shores. She was gracious and patient, ansewering intelligently and directly everything that was her, but one felt that sitting through an interview was not one of her choicest moments. She looked a jit- tle pleadingly at Michael Wright, of the Embassy staff, who came in the drawing room where some 30 women of the press had met by special per- mission. You could see she did not wish to terminate the interview too soon, but wanted it to end at the first o_ loop-hole in the conversa- oe didn’t come here to preach to you,” she said, in reply to a question about how to better our own indus- trial and economic conditions for women. And again when some one wanted to know what she thought of the manner in which women were conducting their political careers here, she said she really couldn’t an- swer that as she had only just ar- rived. She seemed a trifie nonplussed when someone wanted to know if British women had expected to see a woman appointed to our. Cabinet in this administration. She. intimated that she had heard none of them ex- press themselves about it, one way or the other, and when the inquirer vol- unteered the information that Ameri- can women had evinced the greatest enthusiasm for the election of women to parliament, she parried the ques- tion, “Yes, but were they interested especially before our elections actu- ally took place? As much as to say, that when a woman is appointed to Cabinet here country-women will come forth with the proper appreci- ation of the achievement. Asked About Engagement. Although every woman writer in the group knew from advance in- formation, and, instinctively as well, that Miss MacDonald did not wish to be asked about clothes or styles, Or if she was engaged to. be married, the questions popped out, much to every one’s amusement, Ishbel’s most of all. A London publication had stated that she would announce her engagement upon her return from America,.so she was told by one fre- porter present. This. amused her in- tensely, bringing out the dimples and the sparkle in her eyes. She said it was news to her, and if any one else knew anything about it she was sure she didn’t. At least she was wear- g no rings, or in fact, any. jewelry in Nor any Kind. She was good to see with her fresh. high complexion, without powder or rouge, her thick waving dark hair, drawn back in two flat shining knots at the back. She wore the same costume in which she arrived yesterday, except that her boutonniere was two camellias in place of the knot of lilies of the valley she -wore yesterday. Ishbel has decided charm. her nat- ural, -unassuming manner captivat- ing every one who has met her. There is nothing “Pollyannaish” in her manner, and she is perfectly capable of holding her own in any si uation. She told the news.Women that while. she had ho though of ever going in for a career, or going out for her- self, that she had gone out oncé or twice to make speeches for her father and brother if their campaigns. She does no organization work, she said. but merely made speeches, which she’ gives without notes, having thought them out in her own mind before- hand. She is a member of the London County Council, and this work, she admitted, keeps her so busy that she has no time to keep up her golf or tennis, and that she does very little dancing or frivoling about. She does observe a day at home, as her father’s official hostess, and occasionally is at home when special invitations are Man Held in Kin’s Death Liberated $3,000 Bond Is Required From Walter Norris, Slayer of Brother. Special to The Washington Post. Leonardtown, Md., Oct. 5.—Walter Norris, of Hollywood, Md., who was lodged in the Leonardtown Jail Pri- day night after a coroner's jury had held him responsible for the death of his brother, J. Jetson Norris, by shooting earlier in the evening of Friday at the former's home, was to- day admitted to bail pending further hearing. It was claimed at the inquest that Walter Norris shot in self-defense. An open knife was found in the pocket of the déad man. Norris was placed under a $3,000 bond. A hearing has been set for 2 o’clock..Tuesday.._before Magistrate Roland Duke. Norris’ lawyer is C. Henry Camailier. Adrian Girl Is Killed In Automobile Crash Special to The Washington Post. Clarksburg, W. Va., Oct. 5.—Miss Ethelen Smallridge, 21, of Adrian, was killed instantly and Dr. J. H. Mayo, Buckhannon dentist, wag in- jured, when his automobile crashed into a fence near Hodgeville last mid- night. Mr. and Mrs. Oliver ‘Bourne, of Adrian, who were with them, ¢és- caped injuries.

Misg MacDonald is keenly interest- | ed jm women’s courts, in social -set- tlement work, in bettering the condi- tions of workmen's families and kindred subjects. She likes the thea- ter and said she wants to see a play by Ian Hay which has its American premiere here next week.

Mise MacDonald and Lady Isabella also called upon Mrs. Taft, wife of the Chief Justice, and upon Mfrs. Henry L. Stimson, wife of the Gecre- tary of State, before eons on to the home of Mr. and McCormick Goodhart, where Miss ; MadDonald was guest of honor at a small informal luncheon. The guests were members of the British Embassy staff who did not attend the luncheon for the pre- mier and their wives. Miss MacDonald's costume had evi- dently been chosen with its suitabili- ty to the afternoon events. She wore a trim tailored coat suit of navy blue wool with a blouse of French blue, a narrow collar turned down outside the coat. Her hat was a.small close- fitting felt in the same shade as her blouse, turned a little back from the forehead. Lady Isabella was attired in a black satin coat witha sable collar over a frock of black satin with lace at the neck and wrists,.- and a brimmed hat of black satin. Neither wore flowers, Miss MacDonald's shoes on all occasions are plain pumps with low heels and buckles. Her visit at the White House was scheduled to begin at 2:30, and al- though Mrs, Hoover greeted her guest with the greatest informality on her arrival, the first incident of the week- end may be said to have been rather elaborately planned. With Girl Scouts. Six or seven hundred Girl Scouts of the District of Columbia had been invited to come to the White House and to play games and sing from 2 to 5. It was an impressive sight which Ishbel looked upon as she stepped out on the south portico with Mrs. Hoover, who was in her Girl Scout uniform for the occasion. Hundreds of uniformed girls of all ages set up @& lusty cheer at the sight of Mrs. Hoover and her guest. A few minutes later they both strolled down through the grounds to the hill on the west side of the lawn, pausing to speak to the children as they went. Mrs, Gar- ret 8. Miller, jr., the Girl Scout-com- missioner for this district, was pres- ent and aasisted Miss Dorothy.

Stimson. The two women secretaries followed in another car. A lug vants presently took off. and the caravan was on ite way to the Presi- dential camp on the pidan. Mrs. Hoover and Miss MacDonald left - short time after the President and the Premier's departure. Both ‘vore heavy coats with fur collars, as the weather was beginning to look a bit threaten- ing; and there was'a decided chill in the air. The 600 happy Girl Scouts remained to sing and play and to partake of their ice cream cones, lemonade and cakes which Mrs. Hoover had provided for them. Will Return Sonactew. Migs MacDonald will, it is planned, return to the White House with Mrs. Hoover tomorrow morning, and will visit Congress with her father. She will be the guest of Miss Mary agg son, of the Department of: Labor, luncheon on one day, but today ‘ill be the guest of the Canadian Minister, Vincent Massey, and Mrs. Massey. To- morrow evening the President and Mrs. Hoover are entertaining at dinner for the .Prime Minister and his daughter. en Miss MacDonald was asked to compare her former visit to the States two years ago with this trip, she said in ‘her rich, sweet English voice: “Oh, time we are official, Of course, I like doing things ogg f bit this is really great funs joying it all im- mensely.” “That is one of the keenest impressions One has after talking +o this délightful Scotch girl, and watch- ing her as she goes about her made program of entertainment.

This’ |Chanoe Makes Vice Presi- + dent’s Hostess First to Re- ceive Social Distinction. ORIGINALLY 3D ON LIST (Associated Press.) Chance gave Mrs. Dolly Curtis Gann the honor yesterday of being the fitst American woman to receive a morning ‘gocial call from Miss Ishbel Mac- Donald. By chance also the Vice President's sister and official hostess almost miss- ed seeing the daughter of the pre- mier. The unavailability of the wives of the Secretary of State and the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court were the circumstances that made Mrs. Gann the first to receive Miss Mac~ Donald. And the habit of doing her own daily marketing, which Mrs. |} Gann has followed since she came to the Capital from Topeka, was re- au ‘for her narrowly escaping pointment of coming home to find meets Miss MacDonald's card. Before luncheon Miss Ishbel and her hostess, Lady Isabella Howard, de- . cided to make brief calls upon the wives of officials upon whom Mr, Mac- Donald was calling, and upon the — wives of the Canadian and Itish Free State Ministers. -Mrs. Gann at the same time departed for market. She had returned from her Topeka home only a few hours earlier. Caught Marketing. Informed by a newspaper corre- spondent that Miss MacDonald was going to call upon Mrs. Gann, Gann exclaimed: . Ma Mrs. Gann has gone to mar- e % Hastily ‘he communicated by tele- | phone and Mrs. Gann hastened back to find only Gann and the servants in the suite. Miss MacDonald and Lady Isabella had decided to call first upon Mrs, Henry L. Stimson and Mrs. William Howard Taft. If they had called upon the ladies on their list in the order of their eae om Mrs. Gann would have. en first. It was assumed that Miss MacDonald and Lady Isabella had determined their course because the Stimson home was some distance away, and the others more conven- lent. It ig not required by social form that ladies call upon others in the order of their offic rank. Visitor Charms Her. The prime minister's daughter and the British Ambassador's wife found neither Mrs. Stimson nor Mrs, Taft could be’ seen By the time ‘they arrived Mrs. Gann had returned from the market, smoothed her hair and donned her crystal necklace and pearl earbobs. About ten minutes later Miss Mac- Donald and Lady Isabella left to complete their calls by visiting Mrs. Vincent Massey at the Canadian Lé- - gation and Mrs. Michael MeV hite, wife of the Irish Free’ State’s envoy. Mrs. Gann said after the call that . she was pleased, “as anyyone would be. She was struck by the natu- ral charm and the simple grace of ‘the prime minister’s daughter, she added, and found wer ae chat pleasant. iss| Cumberland Girl Sets .

Mr. Lynch was au- thorized to have the same work done atthe: Lee-Jackson School; Bills for the last month were read and approved.’ They amountd to $4,442.59, which was ordred paid out of the county fund. The last liter- ary bond, amount to $283.34 and in- terest, on the school at Andrew Chap- el and bond No, 8, amounting to $1,066.67 and interest, on the Vie.ena School were ordered paid. A tempo- rary bond, amounting to $5,000, in favor of Mrs. Annie Wrenn which is due November 6, 1929, was ordered renewed for six months. Williams was ordered to inves- tigate the request for transportation for the school children from Clarks Crossing to Vienna and from Peacox Station to McLean. The county superintendent. of schools was authorized to purchase ,| enough new desks and. chairs to fill the needs of the schools of the coun- ty and to also purchase tires and tubes for the county school buses... The question of liability of the board in regard to the drivers of school buses owned and chartered by them was taken up. A letter from State Superintendent of Schools Har- ris Hart was read, in which he stated that the school board would not be liable; for persons injured in an acci- dent unless it was shown that they were negligent in the selection of drivers. He recommended, however, that the board take out liability in- surance, Transfer Town Pupils. A motion was.qpassed to close the schoo] at Merrifield and to transfer the nine pupils and the teacher to the school at Fairfax. The date of . | transfer will be announced when ar- rangements have. been made for their tion and room found for transporta - | them in the Fairfax School. A delegation from Forestville asked that transportation be furnished to the pupils of the third and fourth year high school at McLean. They were assured that some provision would be made on this matter. The board authorized that the $3,000 borrowed by the Falls. Church district from the Providence district previous to July 1, 1929, be paid as soon as funds were available, and this money be used in paying of the A.| 85,000 note owed by the Providence district to Mrs. A. Wrenn. The motion was passed to pay $2,500 tuition to the Falls Church School the same ag was done in the school year of 1928-1929, one-half payable January 1,.1930 and the other half April 1, 1930. : Mr. Williams was authorized to re- , the roof on the temporary McLean which is tory for the high A. motion Was - passed to appoint a committee to buy a new school bus. This is to be one of the largest ever purchased by the coynty. When the new bus is available it will be used on the Fairfax route;-This bus. now used in Fairfax will be transferred to the Floris route. The Floris bus will be used on the route from the Forestville’ Schoo] to McLean. This wil] take care of requests of the For- estville delegation. In'an effort to dry up the county around Fort Humphreys, Federal revenue agents fell upon a still and arrested Waddy Hicks. The still was in 9 section of the county known as “The Neck.” When the agents ap- ched the still was running full last. Several gallons of alleged liquor, eight barrels of mash and the. still which is about 60 gallon capacity were seized. Hicks was ar- rested and held in Alexandria for the action of the Federal Grand Jury.

AND BRITAIN AGREE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. but that as a matter of form it must be submitted to -the foreign office and to the dominions. This was done. Dawes Expected No Hitch in Pian. Ambassador Dawes expected, on the 26th, that the last reply from the do- minions would have been received, and that, after a formal and final reference to Washington, the invita- tions could be issued the following day, on the evening of which Mac- Donald started on his American trip. After his visit to the foreign office on the 26th, following his talk with the premier, there was still no thought of a hitch. This is shown by the fact that at the boat train in London on the 27th it was authorita- © | tively stated to me by both British and American personages that the delay was as temporary as it was un- expected, that the other powers would be asked to London probably on the following Monday, and certainly while the premier was on the ocean. Inquiries here make clear that the same expectation that immediate in- vitations to the other powers were in prospect was entertained in Washing- ton eight days ago. Invitations Not Sent Out. On Monday, on the Berengaria, it was authoritatively learned that be- fore the boat sailed, satisfactory re- Plies concerning the draft invitation had been received from all the do- minions excepting one, and it was added that the invitations would be sent forward immediately. Since then, there has been com- plete silence in both British and American camps, broken only by the admission yesterday that the invita- tions are not yet ready to go forward. The statements made above are facts admitted in the highest quar- ters and are not open to question. In the absence of any explanations, only inference remains as to the reasons inference remains as to the reasons for the invitations before MacDonald had met the President. Reasons For Delay Sugegsted. Since it is known that the United States and Britain had agreed on a text, the situation admits of only two.explanations. Either the one re- maining British Dominion that had not been heard from when the Pre- mier left London hag raised difficul- ties, or the delay is due to represen- tations made by France, Italy or Ja It is extremely unlikely that any British Dominion can have raised any objections that would cause more than the slightest embarrass- ment in London. The Only question involved respecting the Dominions is their status at the five-power con- ference, and it hes already been agreed that they are to have repre- sentation. Japan is probably not responsible for The hite Tokio weeks ago let it -be known semiofficially that she would send a. delegation provided she were given sufficient notice, and this announcement was public, while in addition, Ambassador Mat- suidara in London, communicated in advance of the invitation, his gov- ernment’s pleasure, as well as Japan's intention, to ask an increased crulser . ratio and her concern that the cruiser figures suggested in Lon- don and Washington should be re- duced. France or Italy May Be Tardy. The inference, then, is a strong one, although reached by a process of elimination and mot confirmed by British or American statesmen here, that developments have occurred dur- ing the past eight days affecting the attitude of either France, or Italy, or both, which made it inadvisable to send them the invitation agreed upon by America and Britdin, at any rave before further and lengthy exchanges of views. That these developments are of importance may be assumcd from the known anxiety in both Lon- don and Washington that the invi+- tations should be issued before Mac- Donald and Hoover got to grips. The only alteration in the official reception program was an unsched- uled visit by Secretary Stimson to Premier MacDonald at the British Embassy Friday night. As no time had been set aside for this, the inter- view trencheq upon the half hour that had been set aside for Mac- Donald’s talk with the Washington: correspondents.. That..gomething of importance was discussed is probabie from the fact that this visit antici- _pated MacDonald’s formal call upon the Secretary of State yesterday. Stimson may have discussed what MacDonald was going to say to the correspondents. It seems more likely that he wanted to explain to Mac- Donald whatever’ it is that has hap- pened, while MacDonald was at sea, affecting the invitations to the Lon- don conference... There was no op- portunity in New York or on ..ié special train trip to Washington for MacDonald and Stimson to have ary private talk. ~“There -has~ been~ in--Washington,.I gather, a serene. assumption that WASHINGTON'S NEWESTI Swimming Pool Hand Bali Court { Complimentary to Guests) Health Club Main Dining R Room _ Cofeterio Radio in Every Room AMBASSAIDORo Beautifully Appointed in the Modern Manner 14th and K Streets ATTRACTivEe TARIFFS $300 uP Special Rates to Permanent Guests Capt.

It is not Known upon what that con- fidence was based. For either power to come'to London, or indeed any- where else, to talk naval limitation, would involve a complete change in policy from that officially announced in the recent past. France Once Declined Parley. France, in refusing the American invitation to a conference with simi- lar alms at Geneva two years ago, re- plied that “the limitations of naval armaments can not be undertaken without taking into consideration the manner in which it is proposed to meet the problems of limiting land and air armaments.” Italy, at the same time, in response to an invitation identically wordcd, replied with unusual frankness, in a dispatch written by Mussolini as for- eign minister, that “Italy by reason of her unfavorable geographical posi- tion can not expose herself without grave risks to a binding lim/tation of her maritime armaments, which are already insufficient to her needs of defense.” It may be, of course, that France and Italy, impressed by the spectacle of Britain and America reaching a parity agreement, have completely reversed their considered policies of the past, and are prepared to sail their ships of state in exactly the opposite directions. There seems to have been some confidence in Wash- ington, though I found little in in- formed quarters in London, and none in dispatches from Paris or Rome, that the Latin nations, despite their embittered naval rivalry in the Medi- terranean, are now ready to follow the good example set by the Anglo- Saxon powers. Hopes May be Premature. It is also possible that Great Britain and the United States, having agreed upon the terms of an invitation to London, not without difficulty, have discovered that such hopes were pre- mature. France and Italy have known for several weeks that the invitation was being hammered out. It would be a courteous act, and one that the foreign office and the State Departmént would appreciate, if either or both of these powers, un- able to accept the invitation draft, should convey an informal intimation to this effect, in advance. I have no information that either Paris or Rome has said, .in effect, “Don’t send us that invitation, as you have it drawn up now, for we should only have to turn it down, ‘and that would make bad feeling.” But if this should prove to be the case, the puzzling problem of why the invitations have not been sent out, when American and British states- men had them practically rerdy ten days ago, would be solved. General Agreement Presupposed, Then the task would presumably devolve upon British and American diplomacy to find out upon what terms, if any, France and Italy would come to a conference in London, and if they would not come to London, where they would come, if anywhere: It can be stated with some confi- dence that, up to ten days ago, neith- er France nor Italy had been asked by the British, formally or informally, whether they would come to a con- ference. This course was followed designedly, because it was felt that a refusal in. advance would introduce an unnec- essary and premature note of unre- CIVIC BODIES BAND TO LEND NEGRO AID’ Washington Organizations Hope to Extend Field of His Opportunity. WHITES OUSTING MANY Through the instrumentality of J. A. Jackson, of the Small Business Unit of the Department of Commerce, the Federation of Civic Associations, the colored Baptist Ministers Alliance, the Twelfth Street Branch Young Men’s Christian Association and the press have been enlisted in a general Sag of thig community with a view providing employment for quall- fled Negroes in places pf responsibil- ity. A series of meetings have been planned for study of the problem from two phases, one being an in- creased efficiency of Negro workers, and the other the opening of avenues of service differing in kind from those in which Negroes have been employed heretofore. Already the suryey has disclosed that former exclusive Negro employments, restaurant waiting, bar- bering, shoemaking, and similar pur- suits, have been taken over by white men and women here and throughout the South. Jackson hag set forth that less than .3 per cent of the Negro popu- lation is in the merchandising trades, and a smaller percentage of Negroes patronizing colored merchants. A resolution was formulated yesterday, following a meeting of interested per- sons, asking the Department of Labor to make the survey here. This reso- lution will be presented by Robert N. Mattingly, principal of the Cardozo Business High School; Dean Kelly of Howard University, and Mary E. Cromwell. Increased employment will be sought under the District govern- ment, public utilities corporations, ality into the figures being discussed between the United States and Brit- ain, since those figures rest for their validity upon the somewhat venture- some presupposition of a general agreement. 2108 BANCROFT PLACE is a splendid mouse. ideally ut ledated just off Conn ov = .

He had been in the court- house since 8:30 o'’clock,. when he was brought from the District Jail im the “Black Marta” along with a score of other prisoners. In a minute '.or two another consignment of pris- mers, including a white man and a Chinese, was brought,.in.and took - seats nearby. By this time Special Prosecutor ' John E.

When the reading was over he ’ pnswered with a determined inflec- tion, “Not guilty.” Although not spoken in a loud tone, his reply was , pasily heard throughout the court- room and to many who had not been nble to catch a word of the indict- ment.

As. predicted exclusively in The Post yesterday, Robert J. Allen was restored to active duty in the Police Department yesterday. Allen is the policeman who was suspended after he made charges of laxity and mis- conduct against the Police Depart- ment which led the grand jury to upset the suicide theory and indict McPherson. Allen’s reinstatement was made by the District Commissioners, on mo- tion of Commissioner Proctor L. Dougherty, against the strong pro- test of Maj. Henry G. Pratt, superin- tendent of police, who pointed out to the Commissioners, however, that he would abide by their decision, Allen was not returned to his former place withthe Third Precinct at K and Twenty~——= streets north- west. Instead he was assigned to the Eighth Precinct at U and Ninth streets northwest, under command of Capt. Robert E. Doyle, who ordered Allen to report for duty at 4 o’clock yesterday afternoon. Called for Midnight Duty. The policeman sought a day off, however, in order to get his scattered | affairs in order and to recover such iof his belongings as he had left at _the Third Precinct. He was advised | by the station clerk that it would be satisfactory for him to report at 4 'o’clock this afternoon, and thereupon he went over to the Third Precinct where he conferred with Capt. W. G. Stott and removed his uniform and other effects. Later, however, Capt. Doyle found need of Allen’s services and sent him | a message ordering him to report for ‘duty at midnight last night. | “Allen-- wih be treated just._Itke (any other policeman at the Eighth Precinct," Doyle said last night. “He |will not be persecuted, nor will he be shown any particular partiality or favoritism. His succéss or fallure as a member of the Eighth Precinct ‘will depend entirely upon the way in which he performs his duty.” Commissioners in Statement. In restoring Allen to duty, the District Commissioners following a | conference yesterday morning with Pratt, issued a formal statement reading: . “On October 2 a letter was sent to | District Attorney Rover stating that the Commissioners were anxious to facilitate in every possible way the as United States attorney for | nandling of the McPherson death of Columbia, assured the | case, and inquiring whether he would Hke to have Policeman Robert J. Allen reinstated and assigned to duty in the McPherson case, subject to the call of District Attorney Rover. District Attorney Rover, the McPher- son case was taken up by the Depart- ment. of Justice for further investiga- tion, and Hon. John 8. Laskey ap- pointed a special assistant to the At- torney General to handle the case. “A similar tender of. reinstatement and of the services of Polfteman Allen has been made to Mr. Laskey and he has declined. “Becausé it is deemed unwise, pending investigations in progress, to try Allen at this time, and because it seems unredsonable to keep him suspended without pay and without opportunity for trial, the Commis- sioners have reinstated him for regu- lar duty.” “Not Expression of Opinion.” “This action is not to be construed as an expression of opinion by the Commissioners as to any develop- ments in the McPherson death case, or as to the conduct of Policeman Allen out of which pending charges arose.”* Thevofficial order restoring Allen to duty was signed by Commissioner Dougherty, and read as follows: “Ordered: That Robert J. Allen, a member of the Metropolitan Police Force of the District of Columbia, who was suspended from duty upon the recommendation of the major and superintendent of police on Septem- ber 23. 1929, be restored to active duty as of this date (October 5), that he be paid during the period of sus- pension, and that the major and su- perintendent of police be directed to assign sald Allen to active duty. “Unusual Condition” Cited. “My motion Is predicated upon the unusual condition that exists in this particular case, which makes it un- wise to bring said Allen to trial on charges at this time while investiga- tions are in progress, and because it seems unreasonable to keep said Allen “Subsequently, at the request of. making a line plunge, made a dash for the crowded Black Maria.

Robert A. McPherson, jr., ber hus- band, who found the body 36 hours after her death and who was subse- quently Indicted for her murder by the grand jury, went through the for- malities of arraignment before Jus- tice Peyton Gordon in District Su- preme Court yesterday. He entered a lea of not gullty and was returned mmediately to the District jail to await trial. For a time during the afternoon there was a flurry of excitement over a report that Garnett M. Frye, the taxicab driver who told of taking a passanger to the rear of the Park Lang early on the morning Mrs. Pher- son \is supposed to have met her death, had fled the city. It was learned by The Post. however, that although FPryé, considered as an im- portant witness, had hidden “because he thought the police were after him,” he had not left Washington and would be ready to appear before any tribunal which might desire further testimony from him. Another report which exploded with a dull thud yesterday concerned a “mysterious stranger” who accom- panied McPherson to Spotttsylvania, phen few days after Mrs. McPherson's eath. “Stranger” Alibi Witness. This so-called mysterious stranger proved to be one of McPherson's alibi witnesses, who testified before the grand jury, and the story of the hitch-hiking trip made by the pair to the Virginia town was given to the Department of Justice on Thursday whem the department ‘started its in- vestigation of the McPherson murder mystery, Immediately on receiving the story of this trip, including a complete de- scription and name of McPherson's companion, a member of the same athletic chrb as -the indicted husband, J. Edgar Hoover, chief of the Bureau of Investigation of the Department of Justice, made a thorough investiga- tion into McPherson's reasons for the trip. While Hoover is not yet pre- pared to make his findings public, it is understood that little importance is attached to the incident. More Evidence Gathered. Meanwhile, Thomas J. Cullen and E. J. Connolley, two of the most effi- clent investigators in the Department of Justice, are accumulating a mass of {mportant information and evi- dence regarding the manner in which Mrs. McPherson died.

More than 100 witnesses. are being in*cvviewed by the agente of the E \u of Investigation, and already are nearing the bottom of this | with only a relatively small 1 ber still to be quizgzed. One of the first witnesses to be caiied by the Department of Justice was Allen, who disclosed all of the information he had acquired during his one-man investigation of the Mc- Pherson murder mystery. Although the Department of Justice declined to accept the responsibility of having Allen assigned to !t, as reported ex- clusively in The Post yesterday, the agents welcomed his testirhony and plan to have him appear frequently as the new investigation progresses Another witness whose testimony le considered extremely important and who was in conference with agents of the Department of Justice yesterday is Policeman F. P. Martin, of the Third Precinct, who was ap- proached Thursday by a woman who, although she refused to reveal her identity, gave him information :tend.- ing. to—tndicate. a relationship _ be- tween the death of Mrs. McPherson and the suicide three days later of Dr. George Howard Grove, a prom- inent young physician with whom Mrs. McPherson had worked as a nurse.

CONVICTION DATA TOLD Lieut. Col. U. 8. Grant 3d, director of public buildings and public parks, yesterday took issue with Senator Cole Blease, of South Carolina, that the park police make many petty and needless arrests “just to fatten their records.” . “The park police officer is trained to exercise the necessary supervision over park activities so as to provide the maximum enjoyment to the pub- lic and the minimum interference with personal liberty, as well as pro- tect public property against damages by the public,” he said “His efficiency is measured by con- ditions on hig beat and not bs the number of arresta he makes. An in- dication of the success with which this policy is carried out ts given by the fact that 98 per cent of the persons arrested are either fined in court or forfeit collateral.” Senator Blease declared after he had been assigned to the Senate Dis- trict committee that “if there is one type of policeman I hate, it’s the type that, armed with a flashlight, will sneak up on some boy and girl mak- ing love in the park. Why, you can’t stop a thing like that, and it’s foolish to try. Yet some policemen do it just to fatten their records, even thought they have to drag some young girl's: name through the mud.” Railway Mail Chiefs Plan Lynchurg Visit Special to The Washington Post.

The blinding gun fldshes and the roar of the airplanes and cannon, however, seemed to relieve Early of the nervousness he had displayed on receiving his cross. The recognition of Early’s heroism has not ended the controversy over the famous charge he led, it appeared last night. Senator Walsh (Demo- crat, -of Massachusetts), yesterday asked Secretary of War Good to look into the records of all the survivors of Early’s platoon, with a view to decorating them. Later on, Walsh said last night, he may introduce leg- isgation to give them all distinguished service crosses.

We all knew that if there was a riot all.of us, regardless of our parts in the thing, would suffer, through strict regulation and discipline which would follow. Few of us were opti- mistic enough to believe that the break would give the leaders free- dom.” This same trusty talked to Danny Daniels, mutiny leader, while the riot was in progress. The sleek-haired killer told the trusty he intended to kill Albert Mor- garidge, a convict. 4 “He’s @ damned fink” (stool pigeon),’”” Daniels said. “I’m going to bump him off before this is over.” Daniels carried. out his threat. Convicts interviewed said _ that Daniels and Pardue started the riot in the belief that hundreds of pris- oners would follow them. The other convicts, with the exception of Davis and Riley, would have nothing to do with the rioters, it was said, despite the fact that Daniels delivered a very fiery oration, promising them free- Special to The Washington Post.

Eoproey, Scourge of Ages, Swiftly Being Wiped Out Disease No Longer as Terrible as Tuberculosis, as More Cures Are Effected Daily, Reports Virginia Expert, Home From Work in Korea. New York Oct. 5 (N.Y.W.N.S8.).— Leprosy, scourge of society since the beginning of man, is not the deadly contagious disease that Americans be- lieve it to be. In fact, leprosy is only mildly contagious, says Dr. R. M..Wil- son, of Richmond, Va.,. who has just returned from Soonchun, Korea, where he has spent the last 21 years as chief physician and overseer of the large leper colony there supported by the Mission to Lepers of New York City. “I do not hesitate to place my hands on lepers, nor to operate on nem,” declares Dr. Wilson, whose wife and seven children have resided with him in the Soonchun leper colony. He has been decorated by the Em- peror of. Japan for his work among lepers in Korea. Leprosy is not as dangerous as tu- berculosis or pellagra, and through education work and injection of the drug known as chaulmoogra oil, the disease eventually will be wiped out of the tropics and in America, just as Europe rid itself of this malady, Dr. Wilson says. Koréa, and he feels that the inmates of the colony at Soonchun are the happiest persons in Korea, as they feel they are being restored to useful- ness and a -place-in-society. “In the lay mind, leprosy is regard- ed as the worst disease any one can be afflicted with,” Dr. Wilson states. “The leper in any country, civilized or uncivilized, is a moral outcast, shunned by fellow human beings. Orientals consider -leprosy a curse from Heaven for some sin committed. “The Korean’s attitude is that since leprosy is a curse, the only cure for it is the eating of human flesh. Po- lice in Korea have told me of cases where lepers kill ehildren, especially boys, and eat certain parts of the body. While all agencies abhor this practice, it still goes on among the heathen class. } “From the time of Moses until fif- teen years ago, leprosy was considered incurable and hopeless. A _ priest preached the victim's funeral service in his presence, informed him he was dead and drove him out. The leper was armed with a bell to warn every one of his plight, and told to yell ‘unclean, unclean,’ “Palestine was infested with lepers. Crusaders in their wars against the Sarazéns contracted the disease, and on their return ffom the Holy Land spread it to all nations of Europe.” What is leprosy, how it is detected Dr. Wilson was asked. Now Planted in Philippines. “Leprosy is a disease caused by a germ, called the leper germ, discover- ed by Dr. Hansen, a Norwegian, in 1871,” Dr. Wilson replied. “This was the same year that the Mission to Lepers was organized. This germ af- fects a person chiefly in fhe skin and nerve systems. One of the first symp- toms is a ‘dead’ spot in the skin. Many persons discover they have the disease through the method of burn- ing themselves at a certain spot, without feeling. pain. This means that the nerve in that spot has been killed. He has seen 300 cures effected in| and how it is treated, was a question” “About, fifteen years ago, what we called chaulmoogra oil was first used effectively to help cure leprosy. This oll, which grows in Siam; Indo- p China ayd other tropical countries and is now being planted in the Philippines by the United States Gov- ernment, has caused hundreds of cures. Chaulmoogra is grapefruit. which has a large seed containing al- most pure oll. - We began injecting this oil under the skin and to see a real change in the condition of lepers. It was thought for a time that the supply would be short, but there now seems to be an abundance of it. It is not costly and is quite effective in the early stages of leprosy. “Centuries ago the leper was driven from place to place. Later he. was given a home for his remaining days, suffering and unobserved by the world. This idea has now been changed, our modern day policy be- ing to concentrate on early cases, especially children, who offer hope of restoration to health.” Dr. "Wilson has accepted an invita- tion to read a paper before the South- ern Medical Society at its convention in Miami starting November 20. He also will deliver lectures in Cleve- land, St. Louis, Kansas City, Dur- ham, N. C., and other cities during his year’s leave of absence from Korea. : pr Dr. Wilson is a medica] missionary of the Southern Presbyterian. Church; He has a general hospital of 50 beds ‘and also has charge of the leper col- ony, financed by the Mission to Lep- ers, the work of which is supervised by the Presbyterian mission. Asked about his work in Korea, he stated: “Our general] hospital handles about 12,000 cases a year. I supervise a col- ony of 800 patients at Soonchun and supervise the treatment of 500 cases at Fusan, Korea, “We have sent several hundred cures from our colony, and only a small percentage of these have re- turned to the colony for further treatment. About one-half of our pa- tients are able to do bodily work. Bullt Colony Themselves, “Lepers built the colony at Soon- chun with their own hands. Masons. carpenters, painters and others con- structed the buildings and made them habitable. These lines of in- dustrial work have proved beneficial from a medical and economical stand- point. “One will see lepers hobbling down to the water’s edge to catch fish daily with a big net. This means meat for the camp. What about leprosy in America? “I understand there are not more than 600 or 600 cases of leprosy in America,” Dr. Wilson affrmed, “and they are well under control, through isolation. The leper colony in Louisi- ana is doing a fine work.” More than half the lepers in this country are cases from other lands and America can’t really become rid of the disease until it is under con- trol in other countries. Dr. Wilson and children bathed in the Dead Sea. “Yes, it was a great } education for the children,” he said. 197 CHECNS MISSIN WN JONES” EVIDENCE Bank Teller Sticks to His Story Under Grilling by Defense Counsel. STATE RESTS ITS CASE Special to The Washington Yost, Winchester, Va., Oct. 5.—Attorneys for Arthur G. Jones, on trial in Corporation Court charged with em- bezzling funds of the Arthur G. Jones Woolen !.ills Corporation, of which he. was formerly president and gen- eral manager, apparently failed today to brea cown the testimony of Har- old Edwards, teller at the Commercial & Savings Bank, that checks aggre- gating between $30,000 and $35,000, payable to Miss E. Benowiltz, Cleve- land, Ohio, hairdresser and beauty parlor specialist, had passed through that bank. Handed a bundle of Jones’ per- sonal canceled checks, Edwards was asked if he could find any made pay- able to Miss Benowitz. He found none but remarked that there were 137 checks missing. Edwards also clung closely to the testimony he gave yesterday. Saw Her, Witness Says. Paul M. Minter, teller of the Na- } tional City Bank, Cleveland, and L. C. Stiles, Pinkerton detective of Cleveland, “have “testified they ~ nad found “Miss E. Benowitz’”’ was really Mrs. R. Wilson, or Mrs. Rody C. Wilson, of Cleveland, having seen her depositing or cashing checks in that bank, and that only last Wednesday they saw her personally at the beauty parlor she operated as Mrs. Wilson. Evidence showed Jones’ checks to “Miss Benowitz”’ had been sent from July, 1926, to December, 1928. Jones came to Winchester from Fairmont, W. Va., in 1925. The State rested its following cross and redirect examina- tion of G. 8. Kidwell, Baltimore ac- countant. He had found 5,000 shares of common, stock of the woolen mills corporation; Jones owning 2,000 and Max Krol, former vice president, treas- urer and selling agent, 2,000 while 1,000 shares were distributed among the stockholders. Jones and Krol, the latter also under indictment and now a fugitive, were thus able to control selection of officers: ase late today, Carried Heavy Balance, Kidwell’s examination of company books had shown Jones always had a personal account, carrying balances of thousands of dollars to his credit. At And if this long journey were not enough to appease the desires of 4 globe trotter, Dr. Wilson remained in Richmond just one day before climb- ing into an automobile and motoring to Arkansas and back. And now he will tell audiences in large Ameri- can cities of leprosy work in the Orient. Dr. Wilson, whose address is Mis- sion Court, Ginter Park, in Richmond, says some wealthy man has a wonder- ful opportunity to do good by helping to make the Soonchun colony a:mod- ern industrial training school.

Lynchburg, Va., Oct. 5.—The crop of dark tobacco raised this year in the Lynchburg belt was one of the earliest in a number of years, the gro ed during August and early Septem- ber. Growing yep in most sec- this time than has been the cese for @ number cf seasons. This is seen from samp'e. shown at the fair here this week, these exhibits being in fine condition. Buyers admit they need a good crop because there have been. several poor yields in succession and early indications are that the 5° will be a good demand for the’1929 yield. It is believed that these conditions will cause a higher average price than has ruled for several years The market opens November 12 and the four local sales floors will be ready Va., Oct. 5—Tobacco growers of the Old Belt face a gloomy week-end with official statistics of the marketing season, which opened last Tuesday, showing an average price of 14.30 cents a pound for the 1,500,000 pounds sold, with the low level of 13.69 cents being reached on one day.

At 11:45 a. m. today they ushered him—a bewildered, middle-aged tug- boat captain—out of the airplane in which they had fetched him from his boat in the Cape Cod Canal after a chase of nearly 24 hours by air and water and, pausing only for a brief ceremony at the North Beach Air- ‘port, Queens, hustled him into a cell at police headquarters. On the records he is Capt. William G. Baker, 43, of the tugboat Harry F. Keeler, charged with homicide in the death of William D”’*haffey, a ~arge skipper, following a ‘ist fight aboard the latter’s craft off Fort Schuyler, the Bronx, last Thursday night.

Revenge -may -he. sweet. for Christo- pher Evans Papolas, of Silver Hill, Md., but it cost him an additional six- month jail sentence yesterday, after he attacked Policeman 8S. F. Gravely, of the Third Precinct, in retaliation for the policeman’s testimony in a va- grancy case against him in Police Court. After Judge Robert E. Mattingly had imposed a sentence of 180 days in the vagrancy case, Papolas dashed at Policeman Gravely as he was leav- ing the courtroom and kicked him in the groin. Gravely doubled up in pain while court attendants grabbed Papolas and subdued him. Brought back to the bar on a charge of assault, Papolas told Judge Mat- tingly that the policeman had given false testimony against him and had thus aroused his anger. The judge rebuked him for violating the sanctity of the court by his violence, pointing out that he had legal redress for any injustice done him, and imposing an additional sentence of six months.

Final arrangements were completed today for holding solemn ceremonies at 11 a. m. in the great hall of the Reichstag, which was draped in solid black today. The aged President von Hindenburg and members of the Stresemann fam- ily will look down from the box of the former kaiser on the flag-draped bier of the man who guided Germany through the difficult postwar era to P The hall will be crowded with the highest officials of the German gov- ernment and members of the Diplo- matic Corps. Outside, thousands of persons will wait to pay a tribute of respect to Stresemann as his body is borne to the cemetery. The ceremony at the Reichstag, which includes an elaborate musical program, will be followed by an ad- dress from Chancellor Mueller, who, as head of the government, is to de- liver the only funeral oration. To the solemn rhythm of muffled drums President von Hindenburg and the entire diplomatic corps will lead the funeral procession, following the bier on foot, across the Reichstag Square and down the Wilhelmstrasse to the foreign office. There a halt Will bé Made in memory of Strese- mann’s six-year leadership of Ger- many’s foreign policy and the 82- year-old president will fall out of line and return to the presidential palace, which is next door to the foreign office. . The procession will then continue to the Luisenstadt Cemetery, near Templehof Flying Field, where at Stresemann’s own wish he is to be laid beside the graves of his mother and his father. Only members of the immediate family and the closest friends of the foreign minister will be present at the burial. No military pomp can mark the funeral, according to the rules of the republic, but applications poured in today from all political party organi- zations for permission to form cor- dons of volunteer ,guards along the whole line of march. This civilian guard of honor from all parties, ex- cept the two extremes, is a spontane- ous expression of the people’s feeling that Sresemann’s loss is a personal loss for every German, even for those who have never seen him. REPARATIONS BANK VIEWPOINTS DIFFER Opposed to Creation of Superinstitution. SPEND DAY FEELING WAY Baden-Baden, Germany, Oct. 5 (A. P.) —Delegates to the conference on the Bank for International Settle- ments spent the day in intimate per- sonal talks to determine one another’s viewpoint. Despite optimism ex- pressed by the press subcommittee, there were apparently divergencies on the functions and scope of the bank, its location and the personnel and nationality of its executives. The American delegation considers that the question of the bank’s scope is paramount. Apparently there are three view- points among the delegations; some- what as follows: (1). To reduce the bank to a rep- ange = receiving station taking over functions of the agent-general for reparations. (2). To make the bank a clearing house for banks of issue. (3). To establish a world super- bank competing with financial insti- tutions already operating interna- tionally. ‘The Americans are determined that the bank should be limited to its } second function, namely as a clear- ing house for central banks, includ- ing the receiving of reparations under the Young plan. They emphasize a desire to wipe out any impression on the part of the American public that anything like a federal reserve bank of the world is contemplated. In this they appear to haye the support of the various delegations, all of which are determined to safe- guard the independent banking sys- tems of their respective countries. Whatever scope the settlements bank may assume, its authority undoubted- » rare, will be limited to that of a clearing oo ‘Hjalmar Schacht, president Of the German Reichsbank, left Baden- Baden for Berlin tonight to attend the funeral of Dr. Gustav Stresemann.

DIAMONDS STREW “TREASURE FIELDS OF NAMAQUALAND Gems Valued at $100,000 Are Picked Up Daily on Bleak Coast. CALLED RICHEST AREA IN ALL SOUTH AFRICA Stones Are Found in Oyster Beds and in Clusters Under Bowlders. % Special to The Washington Post. Capetown, South Africa, Oct. 5.— On the bleak coast of Namaqualand, the most desolate part of the Union of South Africa, there is an Aladdin's cave of diamonds worked in the strictest secrecy under state control. Glittering diamonds, the finest the world has ever seen, blink in the burning desert sun. Scrape a spade along the surface and your fortune ig made. In. the first year’s working, gems worth $35,000,000 were picked from the soil of the State Diamond Diggings at Alexander Bay—#100,000 worth of diamonds a day. Namaqualand, where the diamonds are Being found, is only the home of the fleld rat and the lizard. Slowly the scientists traced the course of the diamond :wealth of South Africa to this desert until less than two years ago Dr. Hans Merensky announced to the world that he had discovered the richest diggings the world has ever seen. The area was immediately closed to prospecting and the state took con- trol, Dr. Merensky and his syndicate were granted 100 discoverers’ claims and from this he retired a millionaire. The diamonds are found in oyster beds a few miles inland, and are worked from trenches a few feet deep. The diamonds probably have an allu- vial origin for frequently they are found in clusters under bowlders as if they “had been washed together by some great flood in the past. Volcanic diturbances helped to create this jewel-shop of nature. $3,000 in 30 Minutes. At the beginning the significance4 of the diamond discoveries was not fully the stories of the unlimited wealth from these diggings. Then diamond area and in a 30-mirute tour picked up from the surface miore than $3,000 worth of diamonds. A ‘huge barbed-wire fence was then ‘stationed there to protect the dia- monds, The minister of mines defi- nitely decided that the diggings should be operated solely by the state. This seemed a harsh decision, but it was the only course open. .If the diamonds from Alexander Bay were placed on the market as quickly’ as they are found, there would be a slump that would ruin the diamond industries of the Union. Instead, the Government worked the diggings and permitted a proportion of the gems to be sold each mionth. Sixty men make up the staff at the diggings, and on an average, each man produces more than $50,000 worth of diamonds a year. From sunrise ‘to sunset the diggers are un- der the Strictest supervision. Every few minutes the diamonds picked up from the soil are handed to a checker and then transferred by him to a central counting bureau. The labor- ers live herded in the camp and are permitted their occasional outings after they have been closely searched for smuggled stones. -biaimea by People. From the moment the state took control of the diggings there began an unending battle between the po- lice and the kings of the illicit dia- mond trade for smuggled gems. The people in the district were hostile to the state diamond interests. ey claimed, the diamonds as theirs by right, and when the government re- fused to grant their claims, it gave an indirect but powerful impetus to the illicit diamond trade. It was in vain that the Namaqualanders were promised _gigantic irrigation _works that would bring them agricultural wealth. Smuggling spread until over #500,00 of diamonds disappeared each month from the state diggings. To check these losses the govern- ment suspended the - work at the -dig- gings and started an intensive cam- paign’ against thé diamond thieves. The camp at Alexander Bay was made impregnable. The barbed-wise entanglements were strengthened, the ‘police guards were doubled and the supervision over the diggers was tightened. Huge search lights flooded the camp at night and made it im- possible for any diamond smuggler’ to escape. Every time one of the diggers wants to leave the camp he must undergo an X-ray examination to insure that he has not swallowed diamonds. In the daytime the workmen are dressed in pocketless khaki uniforms. This is searched every evening after work. Periodical inspections are made of the diggers’ quarters. These meas- ures have succeeded, Today diamond smuggling from the state diggings has ceased. The I. —. B.-Illicit Diamond Buying Trade still thrives in Nama- qualand, but not at the expense of the state. Transported by Plane. Every week-end a military airplane lands at the diggings, loads the week’s haul of diamonds and takes them 600 miles to Cape Town, where they are hoarded in bank vaults until their turn comes for shipment over- seas. From the sale of these gems ths State derives an annual income of $35,000,000. Yet Alexander Bay pro''cing its. $35,000,000 worth of diamonds a year may be only one of many Aladdin’s. caves along the west coast of south- ern Africa. Diamond traces are be- ing found for’ 100 miles, north and south of. Alexander Bay. Today sev- ‘eral syndicates are making their mil- lions from diggings of the same origin as those at the bay.

INQUIRIES LAUNCHED BY HOOVER IGNORED Alleged evéieledtties Cause Step; Changes in Law Are Proposed. A comprehensive investigation of the activities of the Shipping Board by a special Senate committee, under instructions to dee into questions of policy as well as administration, was proposed in the Senate yesterday as an aftermath of Comptroller McCarl’s audit of the board's affairs, disclos- mismanagement and irregularities. The investigation.is provided for in a resolution by Senator McKellar (Democrat, Tennessee), introduced in the midst of the tariff debate and laid over for consideration tomorrow. The Tennessee sénator declared he be- lieved the Senate should act immedi- ately to get at the bottom of the shipping situation, despite the fact that President Hoover had called upon Attorney General Mitchell to make a study of McCarl’s report, with a view to determining whether there had been violations of the law.

The McKellar resolution calls for a committee of five, appointed by the President of the Senate, to investi- gate “all acts and doings of the United States Shipping Board and the Merchant Fleet Corporation and espe- cially into the sale of ships, prices secured by the board, terms and the responsibility of the purchaser, any change in terms and other facts.” The proposal, if adopted ‘by the Senate, would result in opening up all phases of the administration's shipping policy under the new mer- chant marine act, including ship sales, construction loans and awards of ocean mail contracts. President Hoover, it was learned yesterday, has asked Postmaster Gen- eral Brown to make study of the needs of the international mail service, with @ view to possible revision of exist- the minister of mines inspected the | ing contracts and awarding additional contracts on the basis of applications which have been filed by some 30 odd shipping lines. Controversy Over Statute. The President’s action followed a recent recommendation of the inter- departmental committee’ on ocean mail contracts, of which Brown is chairman, asking Congress to amend the Shipping act. The committee found, Hoover was informed, tnat the law needed clari- fication to determine whether the board, in selling ships, might let it be understood or write into the con- } tract that an ocean mail award would be a@ necessary corrolary to the sale. Action on the appHcation for a new mail contract for the United States Lines, Inc.; purchasersyof the Levia- than and other ships of the United’ States Lines and the American Mer- chant Lines, is being held up by Brown upon the recommendation of the committee that the law should be amended. The view that additional legisla- tion is necessary has not been favor- ably received in Congress and Sena- tor Fletcher, Democrat, Florida, is outspoken on the subject. He be- lieves the law is clear and ample and the Shipping Board and Postoffice out its provision. London Press Club Entertains Dawes American: Ambassador Is Touched. by Ovation to Premier. London, Oct. 5 (A.P.).—The Press Club tonight entertained at dinner American Ambassador Charles G. Dawes. Lord Riddell, in toasting him, said that America always sent first- class ambassadors here. Gen. Dawes was responsible, he said, not only for an economic settlement, but for the introduction of a peaceful spirit at a time when it was much needed and they could not fail to be proud of entertaining a man who would go down in history as the author of the Dawes plan for reparations. . Gen. Dawes, in reply, said he felt rather sentimental and emotional and was greatly moved when he read of the magnificent reception given Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald in‘ New York and Washington. “When I read of the acclaim given by hundreds of thousands of my fel- low count en to ope of the na- tional figures of Britain, the country of their kinsmen, I seemed to hear above the roar of the :rowd the chimes of Trinity Church ringing out that Old English hymn, ‘I Love the Place, O Lord.’” Capper Indorses Plan For Industrial Show Indorsement of the Fifth Annual Industrial Exposition, sponsdred by the Washington Chamber of Com- merce and scheduled to begin in the Washington Auditorium October 21, is contained in a statement issued yesterday by Senator Arthur Capper, of Kansas, chairman of the Senate District committee.- “The prospect of the Fifth Indus- trial Exposition being more expres- sive of the of the National Capital than any of the predecessors must be very grat to all who have the best interests of ‘the city at heart,” says the statement. “These expositions already have proved an incomparable medium of portraying growing industrial amaqualand and | shows ucation for those who do not realize in. the fields which have made . ° 4 jand nothing will hold them back. | America great.” ing heavy Government losses from.| Department should proceed to carry | Y how rapidly the city has taken its FROM A SENATOR'S DIARY Being the Day-by-Day Observations of a “Member- pee Set Down for His Own Satiatactoer * September 26. HE biggest mystery in Washing- ton at the moment is why Smith Brookhart was invited to that party he told about in the Senate yesterday to the discomfiture of Reed Smoot. He doesn’t drink. He shud- ders at the mere thought of contact with a “reactionary” or a “ ] Street .”- He cares nothing for so- He boasts that he has never worn dinner clothes or formal dress. A plain business suit is good enough for him. Yes, siree. That goes over big in the corn belt in campaign years. Nevertheless, he was invited to at- tend this sinful party, which he says was held at the Willard, to enable an envoy from Wall Street to become acquainted with newly elected sena- tors. He confesses that he accepted the invitation, litt}e.dreaming what a den of iniquity he was being lured into. A score or more of his col- leagues (not including the ninety- seventh senator) were also present. To Brookhart’s horror, liquor was made available to the guests in flasks conveniently located behind a curtain on one side of the room. Never hav- ing tasted liquor in his life, he de- clined the proffered tipple, as did also Reed Smoot. But both remained at _ J suing while others absorbed the All t this an pened several years ago, but not yesterday did Brook- hart deem 2 it his duty to rise in the Senate and tell about,it. He thinks now he had better tell the grand jury about it, although, for my own part, I can’t see what the grand jury could do about it. However, it makes good reading back in dry Iowa, where they have just completed a crusade to stop the drinking of flavoring ex- tract. I have a theory as to why Brook- hart was invited to the party, and I offer it for what it is worth. Brook- hart was used for window dressing. The host wanted to display the wide diversity of his acquaintanceship among statesmen of all breeds and species. And it must be conceded that it was no trivial feat to get Reed Smoot and Smith Brookhart to- gether at the same whoopee party. I a new governmental commission to take over, consolidate and co- ordinate the *muitifarious reform movements in the District of Colum- bia into one cohesivé, irresistible drive to make the Capital the model city of America. It seems to me that the crusaders are scattering their efforts and that better results can be ob- tained by bringing them together un- der governmental direction. The activities of the commission will be directed chiefly against liquor, tobacco, gaming, outspoken literature and drama, lobbying, Sunday viola- tion and propaganda. Several things have happened during the last few days to.demonstrate the urgent need for such an organization. First, Senator Howell, of Nebraska, arose in the Senate and made the startling. charge that the prohibition law is being violated in the District of Columbia and demanded that the President enforce it. The President calleq for specific instances of viola- tion. The senator was a bit handi- capped in furnishing evidence by ‘ea- son of the fact that he does not drink and hence had never had any personal contact with an illicit gin merchant. The poor, harassed United States attorney for the District of Colum- bia, Leo Rover, is trying to stop gam- bling. He induced some of the newspapers to quit publishing racing forms and clearing house reports. The incorrigible citizens, however, prompt- ly took to betting on the reports and circulation figures.

The lobby- ist came to Washington with a large He was an active and en- gaging fellow. He had. influential friends “to put him in right with the real people.” He entertained lavishly. Among other things he maintained a bar, conveniently located: and sup- plied abundantly with the choicest liquors. He had white-aproned bar- tenders to serve drinks to those he thought might be useful to him. Members of Congress were especially welcome. Some of them accepted his hospitality. The lobbyist was convinced he was making fine progress. Every night SENATOR HOWELL. after the bar cleared out, he sat down and wrote out detailed reports for home consumption telling of the statesmen who had obligated them- selves (as be supposed) to support his claim. He was sure that all who came to drink his liquor went away in a friendly frame of mind. After several months of this sort of preparation, his bill was permitted to come to a vote. It was overwhelm- ingly defeated. The roll call was 4 sorry revelation ti the lobbyist. It was full of saddening surprises. The statesmen he had been entertaining voted against his bill unanimously. I hark back to this bit of ancient history as we prepare to embark on a new orgy of lobbyist-hunting sim- ply to back up my contention that the influence of the lobbyists on Con- gress isn’t nearly as powerful as some folks suppose. I don’t defend lob- byists, but at the same time I’m not scared of them. It isn’t Congress that needs pro- tection from the lobbyists; it’s the poor, gullible business meh and cap- tains of industry who hire lobbyists at fat salaries to put something over on Congress. That, to my mind, is the: most striking disclosure of the Shearer investigation. September 29. ~ FELT all along that the cornbelt I warriors wouldn't be able to re- sist the temptation to snipe at Alexander Legge. The fact that -he gave up a $100,000-a-year job as head of the International. Hagvester Co. to accept the chairmanhsip of the Fed- eral Farm Board at $12,000 a year meant nothing to them. To begin with, he is guilty of having been head of the Harvester Trust, and that in itself paakes him fair game for the farm bloc. To statesmen from the McNary-Haugen belt it is second nature to take a pot shot, whenever the opportunity is offered. at any one connected with the Harvester Trust. - On the witness stand in his own behalf Legge earned the sobriquet “Hard-Boiled Alex.” He defied Messrs. Brookhart, Heflin, Caraway et al. to send him back to his paltry $100,000 a year. He told them to their face he had read the farm relief act twenty times and hadn’t been able to under- stand it. He is not unique in that respect, but such frankness about it simply isn’t good form. But where Legge cooked his g60se completely with the farm-relieving statesmen was when he confessed that he hadn’t spent the $500,000,000 re- volving fund. He hadn't even spent the $150,000,000 advanced to the board to get it started: He had spent only $40,000,000 or $50,000,000 in more than two months. Such parsimony! What did he think they advanced the, $150,- 000,000 for? To hoard it? Enough of such penny-pinching. Off with his head! R. B. 8. (Copyright. 1929.) Rear Adm.

Eagles Score With Dispatch. “ @he Eagies did not lose much time in-scoring. Only ea few minutes after the first quarter began, Targee - con- triputed his neat ball-carrying work, méking gains of 7, 20 and 20 yards pata an exchange of punts to put the a: into a good position to score. A fivé-yard run by LaFavre set the age for Targee to put the finishing touches on the drive as a 15-yard Sprint by that player scored a touch- -ddwn. Field kicked the extra point, “the ball: bouncing off of the top of the’ goal posts before going. over in the Eagles’ favor. A Shenandoah fumble, recovered by g ker, in midfield, set the stage for the Eagles’ second touchdown of the quarter. Here a sustained drive was | culminated by a. plunge by.

Cumberland, Md., Oct. 5.—Some- thing unprecedentéd in the history of Cumberland footballdom occurred here this afternoon when Pittsburgh Catholic High~ walked off the field immediately after La Salle Institute, of, Cumberland, had scored a touch- d6wn in the third quarter. Referee | Cavanaugh, of Washington College, awarded the game to La Salle, 6-0. In the third quarter, the visitors were helpless and were forced to punt. CioM blocked the ball on the Pitts- burgh 7-yard line. La Salle went over on three downs, Conley scoring the touchdown. Pittsburgh Catholic walked off the. field as soon ag the score was made, basing its decision on poor officiating, and slugging by the La Salle. Team. The visitors also claimed that the loca] back field was in motion. Woodberry Beaten By Staunton, 7 to 0 Special to The Washington Post. Orange, Va., Oct. 5.—Woodberry Forest, two years undefeated prep champions of Virginia, bowed in de- feat here this afternoon before the onslaught of a powerful Staunton Military Academy Eleven to the tune of 7-0. In the second quarter, led by the speed and drive ef Minot and Mc- the Orange defense for some 70 yards and a touchdown. McAnich place- kicked for the extra point, running his team’s total to the 7-point mar- gin which was still good at the end of the game, Shortly thereafter, with the half almost up; the home team opened up with a passing attack that came within an ace of a score, but the whistle proved fatal, and Wood- of the land seemed brightest for them. The remainder of the game proved but a bitter and fruitless struggle, with Woodberry’s repeated efforts to. naught, and, with the Staunton backs still. cutting’ into the line for nice gains. Neither team, however, came close to a score. The first downs stood 9-2 in favor of the Cadets. Again Bob Lassiter’s returning of} punts featured for Woodberry. * Staunton. + “Woodberry. Weayer L.

North Carolina failed to impress at the start of the contest, Wyrick took Chalmers’ kick-off and ran it back to the 65-yard line. His team failed to advance and Farris’ kick was weak. Chalmers gave Maryland a first down on two. successive plunges which netted 7 yards each. Failing to move nearer the N. C. goal line, Evans punted to midfield, but Nash ran the ball back to the 40- yard stripe.

The Southerners Maryland’s defensive by starting a passing attack. Ward’s first heave was knocked down by Evans but Nash took another toss on the next play for a 26-yard gain. Ward circled right end:«for the first touchdown and Spaulding made his lone suc- cessful placement kick in seven tries Pitzer and Nash carried the ball to Maryland’s 14-yard line before the first quarter closed and Ward raced around right end on the frst play of the second quarter for the sec- ond touchdown. Maryland’s lone scoring threat came soon after. Dodson intercepted one of Ward’s passes deep in N. C. territory and was downed on the 20- yard mark. A 12-yard pass, Chalmers to Norris, put the ball on Carolina’s 8-yard line. ‘Radice and Warcholy made slight gains on line thrusts bur the ball went to Carolina on downs, Magner Runs Through Entire Team. A 64-yard run through the entire Maryland team by Magner late in the second quarter placed the score at 19 to.0 at half time. Probably the most serious blunder of the Old Liners came soon after the. start of the final half. stood in full view along the side lines as the teams lined up on Mary- land’s 30-yard line. No one cov- ered the Tarheel half back and he had no trouble taking a long pass from Harden and running 25 yards to the goal line.

Radice in- tercepted a Carolina pass and Evans kicked out of danger, but Jackson tossed a 20-yard pass to Branch and the latter raced 30 yards farther for another 6 points. Spaulding added another Tarheel then opened from Harden and-ran.45 yards to the end ome. The final score was cred- ited to the diminutive and elusive Branch, when he pulled down a 15- yard pass in the dying minutes and raced more than 30. yards over the goal line. : ‘ North Carolina, olt Koenig arris pscomb ke Position. .E R.

C., Oct. 5 (A.P.).— The University of Pittsburgh’s powerful football team over- whelmed the Blue Devils of Duke University here this afternoon to win the season’s first big interséctional game, 52 to 7. The game marked the dedication of Duke’s new athletic sta- dium, Rooney, Uanasa and Parkinson, three fleet backs, led the Panther at- tack. Pittsburgh scored the first touch- down before the game was six minutes old. Uamnasa returned the kick-off 45 yards to Duke's 45-yard line and gained 15 and 16 yards, respectively, in the next two plays. Parkinson then went through the line for 8 yards ang Williams took the ball over on the next play. Parkinson failed to kick goal. Pitt scored again a few minutes later, advancing 43 yards on three plays. Williams took the ball over on a delayed line buck. Parkinson fail- ed to kick goal. The Panthers were using a bag of tricks on the Blue Devils. They trotted out a beautiful triple pass) but gain+ ed only 1 yard on it. Late in the quarter, Uanasa went off right tackle and ran 70 yards through the entire Duke team for the Panthers’ third touchdown. Parkinson kicked goal. The quarter ended with Pittsburgh a ‘s*/ leading 19-0. The Duke defense tightened in the second period and although Pitt sent Parkinson and Uanasa against the line time and again, there was no more scoring until late in the period, when Uanasa got loose for & 72-yard’ dash for the fourth Panther touch- down. Parkinson kicked goal. Duke seemed headed for a touch- down near the end of.the half when Buie heaved a 32-yard pass to Robe- son, with almost a clear field in front of him, but Robeson’ slipped just as he received the ball. The 'same com- bination used another pass to gain 15 yards more, and the half ended with the ball on Pitt's 13-yard line. Score, end half, Pitt, 26; Duke, 0. With the milling fast and furious in the third period, Bule attempted a punt from behind Duke’s 10-yard line; Pitt blocked the punt, with Duke recovering behind the goal line for a safety, adding 2 ints to the Panthers’ score. Duke elected to kick and Rooney, recovering, ran for a touchdown, but was called back for offside. Near the end of the third period Wallinchus skirted right end behind perfect interference and ran 47 yards for a touchdown. The extra point was missed. Rooney went around right end a minute later for another touchdown... Score, end pe- riod, Pitt, 46; Duke, 0. The rout continued in the last pe- riod. Hood tossed a long pass to Schuls, who looped across for an- other touchdown but missed the try for .touchdown. Score, Pitt, 52; Duke, 0. Duke broke into the scoring col- umn for the first time when Buie hurled a 30-yard pass to Beaver, who stepped 22 yards across the line. Bule made. the extra point. The game ended a moment later. Touchdown in First Period Spells Virginia Victory South Carolina Beaten, 6 to 0, in Hard- Fought Battle at C olumbia; Thomas Bryant Star for Cavaliers. ; and | Special to The Washington Post. OLUMBIA, 8. C., Oct... 5.—Vir- ( "ginia’s first-quarter touchdown was enough to defeat South Carplina, 6 to 0, this afternoon in the first Southern Conference con- test for both elevens. Smashing of- fensives in midfield by Cavaliers and Gamecocks alike alternated with des- perate stands-in when goals were en- dangered. Bill. Thomas and Herbert. Bryant. two backs playing their first year on the Virginia Varsity, were largely re- sponsible for the victory. Bryant carried over the Cavalier touchdown after a drive down the field and Thomas had a way of running wild through the Carolinians that gained a total of 146 yards for his team. Thomas Averages 9 Yards Per Dash. Sixteen times Thomas toted the ball for average gains of 9 yards per tote. Once when Virginia had held Carolina for downs close under. her goal, Thomas cut over tackle and ran half the length of the fleld until halted. He went to the 77-yard line before. being downed, but referee Foster called him back beyond the 25-yard mark, where he had tripped. This gain of 49 yards was probably the turning point in the game,, for it put Carolina on the defensive in- stead of Virginia. When the Gamecocks had the ball Thomas was checking their.men in the secondary defense. He nipped the last Carolina attack by intercept- ing a pass on Virginia’s 7-yard line just before the game ended. Virginia received the kick-off and marched 50 yards down the field only to be checked by a fumble. When Zobel punted out the assault started again. Sloan's pass to Peyton gained at 15 yards and Sloan, Thomas and Bryant alternated in running until the young full back smashed over the goal. Sloan’s attempt to kick was wide. Zobel Shows Way for Gamecocks. Eddie Zobel, who wrecked the Cava- lierg in the last two games on Lam- beth Field, was the head man in a varied Gamecock defense which cut through the middie of the Virginia line with near disastrous results. Boineau, Rhame and Culp carried on with Zobel in the Gamecock charges, which gained 254 yards and 15 first downs. factor in the Cavalier victory, for he out-generalled the Gamecocks time and again. Virginia gained 257 yards on running and passing for 11 first downs, ' Virginia. ‘Position. South Carolina. Powell R. E. OPPs R.H ryan Virgini South ar Referee ‘oster Sidney). Umpire—Hartzell a. C.

By. agree- ment these two latter games were to ke consolidated into a double- headef and played on Tuesday. Rain matred this program aud also pre- vented. play on the following day. As National League games were sched~ -uled in the Sleepy City on Thurs- day and Friday, the Nats.and A’s could not play there, Dut.

Mack Saw Benefit : In 1910 and 1911 himseif looked at things from this angle back in 1910 and 1911. His team won the American League flag both of these seasons, when it was “every league for itself” in the draw- »ing-up of. schedules. As a result, bh Septembers found him with the league titles tucked away and the American League play ended nearly two weeks before the National League schedules were completed. i? both occasions, in order to. keep his team at the top.of its ganie, Mack was glad to take up the offer of Ban Johnson, then American League head, to match his combination against an ‘@ii-star team, Four Washington play- @rs were among those recruited. Walter Johnson, along with Ed Walsh ‘and “Doc” G, Harris White, of the White Sox, made up the mound staff; Charley “Gabby” Street, of the Nats, @nd Billy Sullivan, of the White Sox, ‘did the catching; First Baseman Hai. ; of the Yankees: Second Base- Man "Kid" Elberfield, of the Yankees: ‘Shortstop George McBride, @of the Nats, and Third Baseman H Lord. | of the Red Sox, made up the infield: ,with Clyde Milan, of the Nats; Tris nai an a Bir Red rape and * obb, o e ers, making u the outfield.

As Poth Johnson and Milan will remem- ‘Der how their team won out in 1910 ‘but have forgotten what happened the following fall, the chances: are that the stars bowed in 1911—people’s memories are tricky that way. Money Divided Among All-Star Groups. Ten games were played those two ne n ‘falls, all in Philadelphia except one... which was staged in the Georgia Avenue Stadium.. The money taken -in, minus expenses, was divided | ata the members of the “AlJ-Star” Following the 1910 exhibition games kthe Mackmen met the Chicago Cubs. Whom they face again this seagon. and showed great form, copping the scries, four games to one, after getting away to a great start with three suc- cessive victories. So enthusiastic was Mack that he declared his team owed its great showing to the fact that the “Stars” kept the Athletics right Non edge for the title set and he presented each with a handsome gold watch, suitably. engraved, and with .> enameled white elephant on the ack. The next year saw the Mackmen follow-up their battles with the “Stars” with a World series triumph ver the New York Giants, by a four game to two margin. And again Mack ascribed his team’s series success tq | %the competition furnished {t-in the i set with the picked team.

Much water has trickled under the ‘pridges since then and Connie Mack's ideas evidently have c ed . The eomparative drought of competition ‘which Athletics have undergone ‘during the past week may not affect their play in the coming champion- iship battles. Then,again, it may, in which case Mack will have much to regret over his action of last week in not being willing to take a chance on losing a few dollars on traveling and hotel expenses for competition / which his players needed to keep them on edge and which he con- ‘pidered/ so valuable eighteen and nineteen years ago.

EW YORK, Oct. 5—The impend- N ing world series -has been im- pending so Jong that it begins to suffeg somewhat by comparison with the football productions, many of which will draw between 65,000 and 80,000 customers at-a flat rate of $5 per customer. With the weather turning blowyv and a bit cold, it is quite possible that postponements will extend the segies until’ the 19th of October, when Notre Dame will be playing Wisconsin in Chicago and the University of California will be playing Penn at Franklin Field, which is only a distance of a dollar as the taxicab plies from the home lot of the Philadelphia Ball Club, So, wherever the ball game should happen tO occur—in the not incon- ceivable event of there being a world series game on that date—it will be no problem at all to obtain tickets beeause not even the politicians, to whom the best tickets necessarily are allotted every year, will be eagc? ‘w attend. It is a peculiarity of the so- called national pastime trat the cus- tomers: can not maintain their en- thusiasm eyen for the world series under pressure of physical hardships which the same customers endure rather joyously at football games. Pegler Suggests Way of ‘ Getting Tickets. Several] times during the last few years I have noticed quite glaring cx- panses of unoccupied seats In the wings of the grand stands at world series games, and I would suggest that any customers who feel any sense of hurt or slight at being overlooked in the distribution of the tickets make a point of hanging aroynd the pa- vilion entrances on days subsequent There are generally a mumber of busy gen- tlemen with worried expressions Op- erating among the crowds with tick- ets for sale, and they become more worried and their prices less aristo- cratic as the hour of the game ap- proaches. ‘ It is my idea that if the world series should happen to -be~ unfin- ished business on or about the nine- teenth of October, the parallel be- tween football and baseball in foot- ball season will be quite deadly and the world series attendance will con- stitute.a warning to the baseball in- dustry never again to challenge foot- ball in its own season. _ In this region, the newspapers have been minimizing basehall lately and emphasizing football, even to the ex- tent of withdrawing staff baseball writers from the New York teams and assigning them to duties having to do with New York University, Har- vard, Yale and the rest. But for the death of Miller Huggins, which was pure reading matter, the eclipse of baseball, including the world series, would have been almost total. Since Mr. Huggins expired, how- ever, there have been the stories of his death, his career and his funeral and now there is much conjecture as to whether Babe, Ruth, Bob Connery or Daniel. Howley will get the Job. Otherwise, the baseball literature ap- pearing in the New York prints con- sists largely of vicarious or ghosted writing, purporting to give . the thoughts of baseball players who can not think and could not write their thoughts even if they had thoughts. Like the noncommittal. football fore- casts issued every Friday evening in season by the football coaches, who are now sweating their. racket in a vigorous way, these predictions of the vicarious baseball authors regarding the world series have been of a fami- liar and remarkably dull pattern. Players Stick to Entry of Own League. . American League players predict that the Athletics will win the world series and explain that Grove and Walberg, throwing left-handed speed on dark days, will confuse the right- handed hitters of the Cubs, e Na- tional League authors pick the Cubs and explain their choice with a for- mula of their own, One day I should like to see by the pers that some American League author had picked the National League team to win the world series and vice versa, but any ghost writer who would do a thing like that to a trusting author would be stripped of his shroud and chain and cast out of-the society of spooks. When I was engaged in spooking, I never: betrayed my trust, but al- ways when I was writing for George H. Ruth I had to control a desire to start off a piece saying, “I do not know, what the hell this fellow 1s writing under my name today as I was out at a brewery last night and, anyway, I have not seen this guy for the last six weeks. But I will say that, in my opinion, Judge Landis is a windbag, and add that. I wouldn’t , have 20 home runs if the magnates hadn’t hopped up the baseball,” —— Navy Plebes Defeat W. Md.

When the Blue Ridge League was in its infancy, Jimmy Dykes was a star with the Gettysburg Team before the battlefield town threw up its franchise. Then Joe Boley, the Mack's shortstop, made his bow to pro ranks with the Chambersburg Team in 1917. Earl Mack, the son and probable Successor to the famous leader of the Athletics, also gained much of ex- perience in baseball leadership at Mar- tinsburg. He piloted the Blue Sox to &@ pennant in 1923 and has since taken a@ friendly interest in the Martinsburg Team, which was adopted as a farm for the Athletics: last June.

Caustic Pieces as Sports Writer Started Cubs’ President in Job By CHARLES W. DUNKLEY (Associated Press Sports Writer). HICAGO, Oct. 5 (A.P.).— Once ( there was a baseball reporter who knew more about running the home town club than the man who got paid for the job. And that’s how William L. Veeck, president of the Chicago Cubs, got his job. Back in 1918 Bil! was writing base- ball for the Chicago Evening Ameri- can. His specialty was finding things wrong with the Cubs and talking about them in print. But his criti- Clam was constructive. One day when Veeck was on his way to the press box to cover a game he met Willian Wrigley, owner of the team. . dl “You seem to know so much about running a ball club,” said Wrigley, referring to a rather pointed criti- cism Yeeck had written that day, “how .would you like to have the job?” Veeck, stunned for a second, quick- ly recovered and accepted. He was hired on the spot. Bill—nobody calis him William— polished himself for the myriad du- ‘ties of.handling a big league elud | by engaging in such occupations as 'a neWsboy, a drug store apprentice, and finally as a basébal] reporter He was born in Booneville, Ind.. some 40 odd years ago, of Dutch par- ents.

Collins is back on the Mack board of strategy after 22 years in baseball, the longest stretch of service of any man still in uniform. The one-time Columbia shortstop now spends his afternoons on the coaching line opposite third base, in- stead of gliding about the keystone sack in action, but he is, neverthe- less an important cog in the machine of the new ‘American League cham- pions. There has been talk, ever since Collins returned to the Athletics in 1926, that he was slated to take over the managership when Mack Was ready to step down.

Last night, rounding the corner'on the way home, I saw the old homestead lit up like a cathedral at Yuletide. ‘ “Visitors,” I murmured, “either that, or some real estate firm has turned the place into a model home.” On the approach, I expected to hear @ jazz band playing, but all’ was quiet at the old castle save the merry tick of the electric meter. “What on ‘earth has happened, Luella?” I asked, aghast in the door- way. “Are you celebrating Thomas Edigon’s birthday, or Pe “You almost guessed it,” she an- swered, “I’m practicing——” “Practicing what?” ER hair was a golden tint be- H neath globules of _ glorified glimmer. “Practicing for the golden anni- versary of the electric light,” she said, breathless with excitement. ‘Don’t you think it’s wonderful?” “Wonderland, I’d call it,” I ob- served, “what with about $18 worth of electric light bill glaring us out of Society, the Virginia Crop Improve- ment Association, the State Dairy- men’s Association, and particularly for the Virginia State Poultry Federa- tion.

Danville, Va., Oct. 5.—Danville’s twentieth fair will open Tuesday and run until Friday. According to A. D. Starling, president of the Danville Fair Association, a larger investment is being made than ever before. While the corporation is a stock company dividends have never been paid, all profitsbeing turned back annually into the treasury. In this way years when attendance has been low on account of bad weather the fair has been sustained and the grad- ual accumulation of funds has made it possible -todevelop -the—localun- dertaking until it is said to be sec- ond only to the State fair at Rich- mond, ; Increased premiums in most classes are offered with the largest sums be- ing awarded for fine specimens of tobacco. All of the county accredited high schools will have exhibits and all the corn clubs of nearby counties are competing. There is a special apple exhibit, and in the woman's building there will be liberal rewards in the home economics classes. Five free at- tractions are to be offered with the usual number of;concessions. What's all this about the Capitol bathed with every pris SIGNIFICANCE LENT TOW.CTU. SESSION Virginia. Division’s Votes May Sway Election of Governor. NO SIGNS OF PLANS YET Special to The Washington Post. Charlottesville, Va., Oct. 5.—The Christian Temperance Union of Vir- ginia this year comes to Charlottes- ville on October 7, 8, 9 and 10, be- ginning exactly-one month before the most important State election since the war between the States, In a section which, in 1928, stood out as the State’s citadel of Democracy, it seems to bring with it a political prestige never before possessed by women of the “cause.” Forecasts of the convention’s acti- vities give no hint that it could have been timed to bear directly upon the election of the next governor of Vir- ginia, but stranger things have hap- pened .There are to be 200 regular delegates and these represent a State enrollment of 7,639 active paid-up members. , The’ expression, “paid-up,” of course, refers to State amd chapter dues, but these are women interested in public affairs. It is, therefore, not unreasonable to calculate that mem- bership in the W. C. T. U. plus public interest, plus home and community influence, represents a voting strength well in excess of 10,000. May Hold Balance. There have been times in Virginia when 10,000 ballots, more or less, meant very little. This year it may turn out that fewer than that quan- tity will mean a great deal—no one can tell, not even the old heads that used to carry workably dependable data for any political occasion. Fig- ures that settle the contest between Dr. John Garland Pollard, Democratic administration candidate, and Dr. William Moseley Brown, coalition nominee, lie somewhere between the unprecedented total of 217,000 votes cast in the presidential election of last year and 138,000 polled in the Democratic primary of August. Both parties realize that the balance of power might rest in the hands of the temperance union, if its members chose to present a solid political front. No one actually expects that to occur, but it is not so remote as to deter either party from the establishment of listening posts. Every man’s ear is to the ground in Virginia this year. The program—all there is to guide one thus far—is innocent of any ap- parent design to affect the immedi- iate political future of the State. Al- though it is elaborate and diversified =“stretching over the mornings and afternooms of three days and the eve- hnings of four—the outstanding fea- tures that meet the eye are that it will be presided over by Mrs. Howard M. Hoge, president. since 1898, and that there will be an address by Dr. Edwin, A. Alderman, president of the University of Virginia. Bishop Cannon Expected. Mrs. Hoge is a fine, motherly woman, the wife of a Friends minis- ter, who has been actively identified with the union and its purposes for 39 years. The fact that Dr. Alder- man, greatly sought after in this section .aS welcomer par excellence, will make the principal address cf greeting could mean nothing in the way of a political sign, but a. good deal in the matter of placing the con- vention rightly on its feet as a body worthy of endorsement both morally and educationally. Incidentally,:as is well known, Dr. Alderman is a dry Democrat’ and a personal friend of Alfred E. Smith. : With the promise from’ Bishop James Cannon, jr., that he will soon tour the State, stumping in behalf of Dr. Brown, there naturally arises the prediction that he will make tt convenient to visit Charlottesville while the delegates of the union- are in session. If this should happen, the convention, of course, would immedi- ately assume a political aspect. It ts probable that the Bishop would be welcomed and listened to with much gravity by the good ladies,. but the effect of an address by him.is con- jectural with the leaders of both par- ties. The faa is, they would be just as well satisfied if he would leave Charlottesville out of his itinerary. The Woman’s Christian Temperance Union is dry and so is Bishop Can- non; that far they go hand in hand. The question is whether or not that tie, binding as it is; would leave them politically hand in glove. Neither Democrats nor coalitionists are par- ticularly anxicus to’see it put to a test. ~ ° Lynchburg Democrats Are Urged to Cast Vote Special to The Washington Post. Lynchburg, Va., Oct. 5—~The Demo- cratic committee here has addressed a letter to voters of Lyncthburg, urg- ing them to’go to the.polls November 5 and cast a vote for the Democratic city ticket .

Although it is generally believed that President Hoover does not regard this as an opportune time to take up with the British government the question of freedom of the seas, there can be no doubt that it will become the subject of ihformal discussion while Prime Minister MacDonald is in Washington. Mr. MacDonald has often expressed the opinion that an agreement with the United States on the freedom of the seas is the only basis of a completely satisfactory friendship. No doubt Mr. Hoover feels that this question uncer- lies the problem of naval limitation and should be settled, but it is supposed that he favors a naval limftation agree- ment as offering immediate beneficial results as well as paving the way for an agreement on freedom of the In recent months.Mr. MacDon stated that changed conditions have made it impossible for Great Britain to close the seas as a means of starving an enemy nation. The increased size of other navies, the development of air the impossi- bility of separating contraband of war from genéral trade and the danger of raising up powerful, new enemies are: reasons why, in Mr. MacDonald’s opinion, the old rules must be changed. He holds that “‘when a nation ceases to be able to enforce its will on the open seas it is bad policy for it. to try to-do so.” He concludes that “there must be either complete freedom of :the seas or competitive naval armaments.” How can Great Britain and the United States reach an understanding upon the question of freedom of the Not long ago Mr. MacDonald suggested that the problem could be solved by a general agreement provid- ing that all nations should take coercive action against a state violating the Kellogg pact. . There would be no belligerents, in the old sense, and no neutrals. The aggressor state would’ be making “private war,” and the sup- pression of such a war by the combined |. nations would be merely a “police duty.” Hence the old controversies between belligerents and neutrals arising from interruptions of sea trade could not Unfortunately the problem is “not quite se simple as it presents itself to Mr. MacDonald. The instances are very rare in which any nation making war stands out unmistakably as the sole aggressor, and probably no in- stance can be cited in which a nation has arrayed against it all other nations in the world. Wars are preceded by. alliances and combinations, and the beginnings are so camouflaged that it is well-nigh impossible to identify the aggressor. At this moment the nations disagree as to the instigators. of the last war. How would they be able to agree hereafter? And how would it be possible to compel a nation to declare » war against a distant nation which had _ been found by a majority vote or other- wise to be making private war against a neighbor? Soviet Russia may be now on the point of violating the Kellogg pact, but it would be very difficult,. indeed, to bring any nation to the point | of declaring war on Russia because of i. violation of the Kellogg pact. In its essence Mr. MacDonald’s sug- _ gestion is a plan to place in the hands of an international authority the power to call all nations to war against an alleged aggressor. Of course, the Con- stitution stands as a bar to any such agreement on the part of the United States. No treaty can supersede the Constitution. The power to declare war is vested in Congress. It can not divest itself of this power, nor can a treaty transfer the power to anyother au- thority. In -this respect the United States is unique. Its powers, including +the power to make treaties, are appor- tioned and fixed by the people and can not be changed by the Government. The only method. by which the United States could join other nations in a pact providing for universal “police action” or war against an aggressor is by atending the Constitution. It is because of the danger of being drawn into a war among other nations, through interference with its commerce or otherwise, that the United States, soon after it ratified the Kellogg pact, provided for a stronger Navy. It can renounce war, but it can not agree to make war. THE PEST OF THE LOBBY. Senator Caraway’s resolution calling for an investigation of lobbyists having been adopted unanimously by the Sen- play in real life. Everybody knows that there is rich material for this play, and plenty of good and bad actors to fill the roles. How the plot will develop and. what the denouement will be may de- pend upon the skill of the master pro- ducer, Senator Caraway himself. If he will direct the performance .the audi- ence will be delighted. His inquisition of quivering victims and his comments upon passing developments would not fail to make the, play the sensation of the season. The great fault: of the Shearer inves- tigation was. its restricted compass. [It was good, very good, so far as it went, but what the public craves is the lifting of the lid, the spreading of the drag- net, and the pitiless exposure of the wiles - of lobbyists of all descriptions. | ‘Seals. Now that: Congress has turned upon its ,tormentors. it should riddle them. Sena- tor Caraway’s chief desire is to expose the impostors who fatten upon the cre- dulity of guileless business me@, causing them to believe that by the expenditure of a few paltry thousands they can pur- chase the votes of senators and repre- sentatives. He justly regards such im- . postors as libelers who spread abroad the belief that legislators and laws can be bought and sold. A thorough raking of the “ ‘organiza- lic under the pretense of promoting legislation is one of the tasks of the Caraway. committee. These organiza- tions are often mere names, behind. --which ¢rafty lobbyists carry. on lucra- tive operations in the name of patriot- | ism, world’ peace, disarmament, inter- national cooperation, &c. Some of them are suspected of being in the pay of foreign interests that are seeking to dissuade the United States from build- ing warships. Others victimize reii- gious organizations under the pretext of promoting the public morals through legislation. No doubt the Caraway committee can find evidence that will convict some of these hypocrites of us- ing the mails to defraud. Tariff lobbyists are -to be sal the gridiron. Much fat should be fried out of them. Let the committee be im- partial in its inquiries. The farm lobby as well as the industrial lobby has been active in tariff promotion. If the tors boasting of their ability to bribe or browbeat legislators the committee can relieve agriculture by making the facts known. Similarly, infant indus- tries can be relieved from the extortions. that have stunted their growth. Perhaps the committee will find some means of damming the flood of predi- gested propaganda that inundates the mails. Form telegrams and padded pe- titions are.a burden to the postal sys- tem and to Congress, besides containing in many instances highly offensive lan- guage. The Caraway committee, in short, is in a position to put a damper upon men- dacity, blackmail, fraud, impudence, buttonholing, hypocrisy, bigotry and other offenses that make modern lobby- ists an intolerable pest to Congress and Washington- pa THE SPAN OF LIFE.

Minneapolis, Dr. Louis Dublin, statisti- cian of the Metropolitan Life Insurance | Co., said that nothing had happened fo indicate that the span of life had been lengthened.

Dr. Dublin should know what he is talking about; but how does he account should, by Dr. Dublin’s standards, be a doddering old man? Don Bernardo is 82. After eight years’ study he has just received his degree of doctor of laws from the Cuban National Uni- versity and he plans to hang out his shingle at once.

Mohamed Jovithitch, wealthy Jugoslavian landowner, is 134, and his wife, Fatima, is two years older. Both are active in the managément of extensive estates and they anticipate years of further activity. Their formula for longevity calls for total abstention from liauor and teharco, coupled with meager meals. Achmed Abdullah, the 165-year-old Constan- tinopolitan, is well known. He earns his living carrying trunks and. pianos, to which light exercise he attributes his long life. - ¥ The champion, however, is Li Ching- Yung, of Kaihsien, Province of Szech- wan, China. As a young man, a matter of 230 years ago, for Li Ching is 252 years old, he was the village druggist jand during his search: for medicinal that flave”'so remarkably pro- longed his life. Li Ching’s claims have. been verified by Prof. Wu Chung-Chieh, dean of the department of education at Minkuo University, who says there is undeniable proof that Li was. born in 1677, A. D. Li Ching has survived 23 wives and is living with his 24th. He | walks with the firm tread of a man in his prime and has a large appetite for sharks’ fins and bird’s-nest soup. These may be the exceptions; but they ‘are the pathfinders pointing the- So far. as the rest of the world is concerned, there is but one difficulty. Each. has a different formula for long life. What shall man do to survive beyond Dr. Dublin’s paltry 80 years—drink wine, ride airplanes, abstain from liquor and tobacco, carry trunks, or depend on life-giving herbs which, no doubt, can be obtained for a price from Li Ching? Dr. Dublin insinuates that the birth records of certain aged persons are of questionable validity and that alleged centenarians are usually mistaken in calculating their years. But they can retort that Dr. Dublin is a mere myth to them. MUSCLE SHOALS AGAIN. A renewed demand that the Govern- ment enter the field of private industry by operation of the Muscle Shoals plant has been made by Senator Black, of Alabama. He asks for an investigation “to determine if lobbyists have delayed congressional action and why Ameri- cans must pay such high prices for this necessity,” referring to nitrate. He makes a dramatic appeal that “some- thing ought to be done to Muscle Shoals in order to relieve the Southern farmers from servitude to the foreign control of nitrate production.” But his plea falls flat when facts, with which the senator should be familiar, are considered. The United States was formerly de- pendent on Chile for most of its nitrate of soda. The importance of developing a domestic supply became evident dur- ing the war, since nitrate is essential in the manufacture of munitions and is widely used as a fertilizer. Since that time, however, private industry has been rapidly developing nitrate plants in this country while Congress has been engaged in a 10-year dispute over Muscle Shoals. A recent statement by Charles J. Brand, executive secretary of the National Fertilizer Association, estimated the domestic production this. year at 230,000 tons, which will be more than five times the quantity -hoped for. | from operation of the Muscle Shoals the great majority of persons he fixed | for Don Bernardo Castillo y Suarez, who | Dublin account for | Grandma Bennett, of Chicopee Falls, | Grandma Bennett is 103, and | Then there is Grandma | of New -York, who, on | Friday celebrated her 108th birthday | with a. brass band, a public reception | | lives moderately and drinks plenty of | ! | i | i j ) j | But -the real old-timers reside in | plants- he. discovered . othe. life-giving. | herbs Ly _—> tax plant.at full capacity.

Senator Black sak out. that Ger- many, France and other European countries have developed supplies of their own, meaning that the world sup- ply has materially increased. This very: fact should bring about a reduction in the price of nitrate to farmers. There is no need for the Government entering this business. While politicians have been wrangling over it, private interests have gone ahead and done.the work bet- ter than the Government could have done it. There 'is a good argument, ies, that “something ought to be done with Muscle Shoals.”: That expensive plant has been kept idle for ten years. Its value is deteriarating. Since there is no necessity.of the Government entering the nitrate industry and the’ people are not in favor of socialistic enterprises, let Congress dispose of the Muscle Shoals plant before further loss is in- curred. SSS BRITAIN AND THE REDS. Foreign Minister Henderson of Great Britain and Valerian Dovgalevsky, the shady individual who holds the post of Soviet ‘Ambassador. to France, have have signed a protocol providing for resumption of diplomatic relations be- tween Britain and Soviet Russia, to be followed by negotiations designed to settle all outstanding questions. As soon as Parliament has approved the protoco] the Soviet government will be in a position to resume the communistic conspiracies in England which helped to demoralize British .labor and led to the rupture of diplomatic relations. One of the baffling problems present- ed to the British Labor government was that of obtaining an effective guaran- tee against communist propaganda in the British Empire. Mr. Henderson found an easy solution, worthy of his master mind. Nothing was simpler than to renew the agreement made in 1924, in identical language, whereby each government undertakes “scrup- ulously to respect the undoubted right of a state to order its own life within its own jurisdiction in its own way,” and to restrain all organizations from overt or covert acts liable to endanger the tranquillity of either country or to embitter its relations with its neigh- bors, ; Mr. Henderson was anxious to obtain this guarantee from Russia before en- tering into. diplomatic relations, M. Dovgalevsky was greatly Offended but. by this distrust in the good faith of the Soviet, He insisted @pon, recognition. first, and He had his way. When a red” ambassador has been installed in Lon- don the negotiations looking to avoid- ance of destructive propaganda can pro- ceed with dignity and leisure. Perhaps the: British Parliament will ratify the plan for resumption of rela- tions with Russia. This is one of the form. Many Britishers are still hypno- tized by the hope of developing a great trade with Russia, and they seem to be willing to close their eyes to recent bit- ter experience, preferring to believe that the Rassian leopard has changed his spots and lost his blood thirst. Moscow rejoices over M. Dovgalev- | sky’s victory, as well it may. It sees a prospect of obtaining money and credit from British sources. The eco- nomic breakdown in Russia can no longer be concealed, and it is necessary or run the risk of a, domestic upheaval. |Hard-pressed Britain, with its tens 0 thousands of unemployed living oh the dole, with its industries stagnant and its commerce at a low ebb, is now ex- -pected to finance Russia. will result from a paper pretense of amity between irreconcilable political | systems. Moscow has nothing to lose | by this arrangement, but Great Britain | can lose much and gain nothing. “TAKE IT OUT OF PCLITICS.” The movement to “take it out of politics” was perhaps never so strong as at present. Baltimore is Just now en- gaged in a controversy over removing its board of zoning appeals from the | field of politics. New York, Chicago, De- troit and every other American city has of its government out of politics. A number have gone so far as to elevate, or to try to elevate, their entire munici- pal administrations above party control) through the appointment of city man- agers and the,glection of commissioners who are nominally non-partisan. But with all their activity, Washington re- mains the headquarters of the “take-it- out-of-politics”. movement, and there is little chance that this doubtful honor will ever be surrendered.

The judiciary can be freed from political-influence because its function is the administration of justice and not the solution of publie problems. But the hope of perfecting ‘the government by taking controversial issues out of the hands of politically con- trolled legislatures is too illusive to be ‘entertained by intelligent people. What this movement really expresses is dissatisfaction with the work of legis =~ lative chambers: The remedy is not dim- =~ ‘inution of legislative authority, but ‘improvement in the brand of politicg | employed.

While the general word is that lack of embellishment is the high note of smartness for evening gowns, yet some Of the most modishly gowned women are wearing dresses of velvet with one large embroidered motif at the side of the princess fitted gown, matching a similar one on the train or the longest part of a skirt that has no train. Next. to velvet the satin evening gown has an important place, espe- cially when it is made of lustrous heavy satin crepe with body enough tO sustain the dignity of the new mode in evening gowns arid yet a tendency to fall in clinging folds.

The hostess gown, which is a very happy addition to any woman’s ward- robe, is very often developed in lace either bright or the most becoming color to the wearer. These follow the princess likes but are not so closely fitted as the evening gowns of lace, and almost-always have long, tight sleeves. Some of them have graceful trains at the side or back. For’ the robe de style and period gowns of’ the present hour chiffon and lace are favorites although some of the women and girls who cling to the becomingness of this type of for- mal dress like taffeta .9r heavy grained silk on account of their picturesque effect. Some of the smart princess gowns with poufs un the hips of vari- colored silk are made of taffeta.

The girl who works, the woman who goes in for sports, have been particularly happy in the ward- robe of practical garments afforded them. It has been a great period, too, for the women who could not lay out lavish sums each season, But it has been evident for some time now that one of these days we at a recent luncheon a dress of dahlia silk with a coat of broadcloth to match trimmed with gray fur.

There's no fun in buying new clothes unless people are going to ste that they are néw—and that implies a bit Of change from season to sea- son, As a matter of fact, the Paris fash- ion crea ‘have done: marvels 1n finding néw variations on the simple fundamentals of the styles of the past few years. But there is an end, even to their ingenuity—and lately they have been ing the point where there didn't seem to be any further changes to ring on the bob- bed coiffure, the little felt hat, the straight-line frock, dc. So, inevitably, we come to a pe- riod of change. Days of Uncertainty. Very shortly we will begin telling you about these changes, for the win- ter of 1920-1980 marks a definite turning point. The die is cast, so far as the couturiefs are concerned, and it is now for the lovely ladies of the world to decide just what changes shall succeed, and just how far they shall go. The past two or three seasons have been pointing the way. Bit by bit, the beginning of the change has been introduced—and because that intro- duction has been successful, the change itself is following. At first the change was noticeable only here and there—then, almost all at once. it struck everywhere. For there are segs undercurrents of influence in the Haute Couture. Many people think that the different creators have elaborate. chains of h other; that is rarely true. But y are all sub- jected to the same currents of thought, and the influence of modern life, art and letters, and somehow they arrive at very similar results, How It Came About. It really started, s most fashion trends do, with hats. The modistes, rebelling against the littie felt cloche that had stified all creative original- ity, began ornamenting them with in- crustations of other fabrics. experi- menting with new shapes. That re- sulted in a new colffure, with the hair longer in the back. Longer hair inevitably called ‘or longér skirts, which have come aout so gradually we have hardly been eware of it. And the longer skirt called for a higher waistline—and since that couldn’t be | brought about at cne fell swoop. the logical transition was the princess line, mole * to the waist. ; And Here We Are! So, little by little, hats have been getting fancier, hair growing longer and curlier, ; irte getting longer waistlines rising. So far, none of it is so serious or extreme as to greatly lessen the sensible ; racticality of our modern clothes. But the >oint is this: These things having started, will they stop shore with a slight change, cr. will they go on and on, as fashion trends always have in the past? The movement for busties and -basques didn't succeed. but that for longer skirts and higher, waistlines has—so shall we see skirts touching the ground, elaborate pic- ture hats and long hair once again? From week to week. we shall tell you what the developments are-—- but being only a fashion observer and not being the seventh daugn- ter of a seventh daughter, we're not even going to pretend, at this moment to forecast for you. And it is you —collectively—who will decide.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Liquor Treaties Legalize Violation of Eighteenth Amendment, Says Rear Admiral Kimball—Paun- gent Colloquies, Including a ‘Supreme Court Justice's Opin- ion on Sidestepping. To the .Editor of The Post—Sir: In a letter published in your issue of September 22d, I made five state- ments, bearing upon the impossibil- tion, the’ first two of which were to the effect that the Supreme Court had found that the-entry of alcoholic beverages within the jurisdiction of the United States was nullification of the eighteenth amendment of the Constitution and that the liquor treaties had legalized, that nullifica- tion. of September 27, Mr. E. A. Harriman, an authority upon international law, confirms my statements by. clearly showing that. while the liquor treaty laws do not purport to legalize the transportation of alcoholic beverages within the United States, they do purport to, and do, legalize exemp- tion from the penalties provided by the first enforcement law of the eighteenth amendment -for the crime of transportation, do legalize the areal tection and direction of transporta tion of alcoholic beverages within the United States. and thus do legal- ize the nullification of the eight- eenth amendment -of the Constitu- tion, Much. clearer than any layman could make it is the exposition of this most brilliant example of our American legislative lawlessness. But it is not a refutation of any of the above-mentioned five statements, and refutation I pine for. According to the dicta of high- brow jurists, all laws should be inter- the lawmakers. While our lawmakers, as a rule, don’t have any intents, but have only emotions instead, a tedious anecdote about: lawmakers’ intents may be il- lustrated. When the first rum pact treaty, the one with Great Britain, was in the hands of the- judiciary committee of the Senate, the chances of its con- firmation came up in the conversa- tion of a small group’ of men gather- ed in the Bob Lincoln corner of the Metropolitan Club. I opined that the treaty must fail of confirmation because the Supreme Court had found that the acts the treaty would legalize were in nulli- fication of the eighteenth amend- ment, and. quoted the language of the finding. A. noted international lawyer in the group said::“You must be mis- taken. I haven't seen the decision; but the court would be.called upon only to find as to the Volstead law, end would surely sidestep - anything touching the treaty-making powers.” Senator Brandegee, then chairman of the ° judiciary odnn rit and & r.of the group, confirmed my pn of the. finding of. the court. t “Brandegee, your chaps have ng in hand?" asserted: “You'll report it out favorably?” “Without doubt,"’ he agreed “And the Senate will confirm it?” “Beyond question,” said ‘he. . “Then,” said I, “we have this con- dition of affairs: ‘Our Executive nego- tiates and our Senate confirms a trea- ty in direct nullification of the Cen- stitution and. of the eighteenth amendment at that. © a “It seems so,” cquiesced. “How in the name of all the seven devils of legislative lawlessness do you Senate birds put that thing across? Shoot!” I demanded. “Well,” said he, with the utmost suavity, “you will agree with me that the treaty may modify the Volstead law?” “Of course,” said I; “it may modify or repeal. Both are the high- est laws in thé land, and_it’s the last run of legal shad :that tallies... But how about izing the nullification of the-elghteenth amendment: of the Constitution?” “Well,” he continued, sweetly, “our poor dear’ old Constitution ‘can’t en- force any: part of herself<without’ an act, and we-are not going to. pass any ‘act to enforce the court's interprers- tion of the amendment.” _—_. I had no idea that they ever ‘would, but they did.

The method tried was to file in the Federal district court a plea for relief for damage done them through allowing foreign ships to take all the cream of the passenger traf- fic, which could not be shaken loose from the vain allurements granted foreign ships by the liquor treaties, and then by appeal to get the con- stitutionality of the treaties up to the Supreme Court. Of course; the district judge side- stepped the whole thing with ease and grace. He. found, in effect, that if those plaintiffg were injured, ‘penal- ties should be im ‘upon the de- fendants; only there weren't any de- fendants, and, anyway, his court was not of the penalty-imposing variety, and, in the language of Mr. Dooley, “so therre ,yez arrre.” Talking about this casé while walk- ing downtown with one of the Su- preme Court justices, I said: “But we'll get: this thing before ‘you chaps yet, and get it there in such & way that you can’t sidestep it.” “Oh! can’t we?” said he. “Just watch us.” Moria W. KIMBALL. Political Issues s Not Discussed at Holy Name Convention. in Nor- folk, of Richmond Diocese, Says Its President, Questions of Politica] Nature Are Absolutely Prohibited by Its Constitution as Topics of Meetings of Society. To the Editor of The Post—Sir: In the issue of your publication of Mon- day, September 23, 1929, there was published a news article concerning the annual convention of the Rich- mond Diocesan Union of the Holy Name Society, which was held in Norfolk on September 22. Tne “leader” or the caption which you used for this article, printed i large, conspicuous type—“Catholics Discuss Political Issues”—is not only not descriptive of the substance of the article itself, but is misleading, wifair and calculated to misrepresent the aims and purposes of the Holy Mame Society. The constitution of the Richmond Diocesan Union of the Hoiy Name Society forbids absolutely the introduction into the society or discussion of questions of a political Nature, and No “political issues” were discussed at the Norfolk conven‘ion. The Rev. Albert E. Smith, editor of the Baltimore Catholic ms tilt in opening his remarks cid state, set forth in your article, that Cardinal Gibbons, with whom he had been in- timately associated, had told him that “you and I know: that there ai- ways was and always will be some leader to stir other. people to wrath and --bigotry,”"._but._these__ remarks merely led. up to’an exhortation by Father Smith to the men. assembled at that convention to be calm and prtient under such circumstances and continue consistently t: openly practice their faith, which teaches us to -rendersobedience to civil as well a& Spiritual laws. The remarks *}y the Very nev. Felix. FP "Kaup, vicat general of the Rich- mend locese, were similar ji: char- acter to thos? inede by the Rev Al- bert E. Smith. Neither of these sperkers made eny reference whetever to ‘political issues,” nor wtre any political questions even remotely sorched upon by. any delegate or any one <lse at the convention. oan is not. be‘iqvea ‘that your valued aper.'intentionaly desired to mis- en rsent what actwally occurred at the convention, but it is certain that the caption which you used to head the article:implied that. It is there- )} fore requestei that publicity be given this communication in the columns of your paper in which are published letters received -from your readers. Tne publicatio of this letter may possibly counteract to s %m™e .extens at least the wrong opinion some of tte readers of The. Washington.

Par- ents ‘Responsibility for Their Children—Success of Irish Free State Pointed to as Illustrating Value of Home as Chief Factor in Education. | To the Editor of The Post—Sir: Ac- cording to the report of plans existing in the mind of the director of kinder- garten education, our public school system is to be augmented by a sub- family of nursery schools designed to relieve. parents of yr tne wnctgt for children too youtig to-enter kinder- garten. ‘For’ five hours daily the in- Declaring | fants will be nursed at public expens so that their mothers need not remalf at home. That children are a responsibility igs generally admitted. Many old-fash- ioned people, however, maintain that the responsibility should be shoul- dered by the parents.

LOUSES have something very B definite to say this season, espe- cially when they are assembled with one of those indeterminate suite which may be either. semifor- mal .or informal, Chooke the right blouse for the right occasion, taking into consideration such things as color, silhouette and fabric, and !f you have enough of them for one well chosen suit you are armed against many mischances. While the velvet and lame models are stunning to look at, for the sheer beauty of the fabric, they are offered a stiff competition by the satin and crepe blouses. Of these..the panne satins register particularly,well, for they have not only the afivantage of novelty, but they are lovely to touch and look at. — Marcel Rochas, Patou, Lelong, Lu- cile, Paray, Paquin and London Trades have presented beautiful and imaginatively designed models which are being reproduced in Amer- lea in a variety of types. Many of them are of satin and crepe in some stich delicate shade as French nude, paille or tea rose and they depend for their éffect almost entirely on intricate cut and seaming, 60 that they have that inceptive look of simplicity which can only be achieved through expert workmanship. One of the. interesting develop- ments in the Blouse silhousette is the raising of the waistline, which is brought about by shirrings at the sides by the use of curving bands which. faintly indicate where the nét- ural. waistline should be, and oy raised. fabric belts. Naturajly all this is done subtly. with no undue stress on the new silhouette, but with great respect for it. While. most blouses are develéped in ome shade, to be worn with some suit af harmonious color, there ars evidences of a tendency to experi- ment by using two shades, such as tea rose with touches of brown. Such a blouse with a.brown suit is partic- ularly lovely, for the brown is most discreetly used in shape of small tabs piaced under tabs of the more delicate shade. The jabot has proved itself so use- ful as an adjunct to the blouse and so flattering that it stakes a reap- pearance on many of the latest.mod- els. Shawl collars and platstrons. caught down at the waistline, bands of the satin’ looped back on them- selves, self-covered buttons, shirrings, inverted pleats, peplums and intricate seaming distinguish the majority of the good looking models now to be found in smart shops.

Location, Acces- | sible, Yet Exclusive and Secluded. By EDSON W. BRIGGS, } We are living in an age of rapid and startling changes in every line of endeavor, which condition is being sensed and takén advantage of by the alert real estate developer. The old style of development where the ground is merely subdivided into lots without adequate restrictions or improve- ments is a thing of the past. Also the type of development in which the developer has no real or permanent interest is going into the discard. Both of these types -were fostered generally with the sole idea of selling lots instead of making a real contri- bution to the residential development of a city. The public has suffered through this kind of activity and as individuals have a right to demand every protection and assurance when building a house ina community. it is probable that every one who has lived in a residential section has found réal reason to regret certain features of community development and neighboring improvements. It may be the solor of the blinds, loca- tion of the garage, bad landscaping, the thoughtless or poor placing of the house on the site without con- sideration of the rights or views of others. or more probably, the unat- tractiveness of the exterior archi- tectural design. It is also probable that many of us have wished that we could plan the entire section and prevent others from spoiling it, where we have in good faith built a home of which we are justly proud. Per- haps you have dreamed of or visual- ized an ideal gpeighborhood with run- ning streams, shaded nooks and val- leys and green hillsides, where there were wide, curving streets following ngture’s contours, where the natural beauty was preserved and enhanced, with houses so well-planned and ~ 16th Street 1 Block From Mass.

It was in recognition of a real need for thought and protection of this kind that brought about the creation of “Rock Creek Park Estates.” In order to build a residential com- munity as nearly perfect as possible, there were two primary, physical re- quirements necessary. First, a loca- tion of great natural beauty, readily accessible, yet exclusive and secluded Secondly, it must contain a sufficient area, protectec by natural boundaries, if possible, to.prevent undesirable en- croachment. In “Rock Creek Park Estates” these two vital requirements are ideally blended. The “Estates” consist of a tract of over 100 acres, with a mile and a half. frontage on Rock Creek Park, dovetailed with the Park and matching its loveliness and unsurpassed natural beauty. The en- trance at Sixteenth street and Kalmia foad gives a direct boulévard approach to and from the heart of the city, with an alternate route along Beach drive, following Rock Creek through the park and into the “Estates.” With a deep realization that any- thing worth while does not just hap- pen, but is the result of definite, care- ful planning, strictly adhered to, the owners of the “Estates” knew that while they had the proper setting, the perfection of the finished picture would depend upon the corfect plan of development. After the purchase of the property, nearly a year was spent in making a complete study and survey of the en- tire section, giving dus consideration to the special conditions of topogra- phy, with the result that the old 3404 Gartield St. FoR SALE by Owner: Beautiful 9-room home in best residential section just north of Mass.

In this the owners of the “Estates” were given the whole-hearted support and coop- eration of the Fine Arts Commission, the National Capital Park and Plan- ning Commission and District offi- cials. The experience of the finest resi- dential districts in and about other large cities has proven beyond ques- tion the necessity for and the ad- vantage of such protective restric- tions as will promote and safeguard the attractiveness and desirability of the neighborhood. In determining the proper protective restrictions to govern the development of “Rock Creek Park Estates,” the sole idea Was to preserve the beauties nature had bestowed upon it and so guard man’s work thereon, that the things which make for comfort and conven- lence would be combined with the things that make for beauty. Taking advantage of the best that had been accomplished elsewhere, coupled with advice and suggestions from the Fine Arts Commission and the National Capital Park and Planning Commis- sion, and giving due cOnsideration to the special conditions of topography and. climate here, it is believed that CONTINUED ON PAGE 2.

Special at- tention has been paid to the eléctri- cal equipment throughout the house, particularly in the laundry room. Characteristic of the other houses in the subdivision, the mode] home is built entirely of masonry. It was designed by George N. Ray, architect, and erected by James E. Fox, builder. As in the case of every home erected in Rock Creek Hills, both the design and the construction were done under the strict supervision of the R. E. Latimer Co, View of Park From Porch. From the porch at the west of the house, a view of Rock Creek Park from the west and north boundaries is obtainable. From the living room, two doors lead on to the porch. The walls are in stippled effect with sand- finish on the ceilings. Double co- lonial doors are at the front entrance and an ornamenta) .wood and iron stairway leads to the floor above, The living room occupies the entire west- ern front of the house. To the right of the center hall is the dining room, with a view from its east windows on to the garden, com- posed of three beautiful’ terraces, one of which is marked by a huge boul- der. Novel among the furnishings here is a large convex or Dbull’s-eye mirror of the period of 1812, marking preeminently early American design and reflecting every part of the room from every angle. A polé fire screen lends a period touch to the living room: On the rear of the house ts located the kitchen, which has all modern equipment.

From the inception of the project and throughout all the planning, the aim has been to make sure that this section can never be spoiled, but will always remain a most pleasing addi- tion to beautiful Rock Creek Park, to which it is so intimately related, and that it may be a credit to the Capital of the Nation.

Even one false step—the eale of a home to an individual who does not fit in—is a serious setback to the community and a reflection on the organization fostering the develop- ‘ment. A further blunder or two is pretty nearly fatal. “This is not snobbishness, in any sense of the word. It is merely facing the facts. No matter how strongly we may believe in the principle that ‘all men are created equal,’ we neverthe- less must admit that, particularly in the matter of a home, we all prefer to live among our own. kind. “Nor is this necessarily a refiection upon the character or standing of those wo do not fit Into a particular group or community. They in turn have their own kind among whom they would naturally prefer to live. among whom they would be happier and more at home. The man of wealth finds his friends among other men of large means. Those of ostentatious tastes are dissatisfied unless they..can mingle with people who appreciate ' and enjoy lavish display. The doctor, lawyer or professional. man feels more at ease among his fellows, men of sim- liar ideas._and ideals. Artists. cat- posers and others of esthetic tastes would be depressed in an environment, where such things were ignored or ridiculed. °- Succees Depends on Handiwork. “Every real estate developer must realize the responsibility that rests upon him, because of the pernia- nence of his . handiwork, to bulld soundly and always with.an eye to the future. For his future succéss is largely based on his past perform- ances. Hence it is most important for him, after he has built well, to see that the. property is. sold intelli- gently and constructively. “To allow undesirables to creep into 1 _ wes ah aa ons oe Se) eae se Post Staff Photo.

BILL BEFORE CONGRESS By JOHN A. PETTY. The real éstate brokers’ license law now pending in Congress would be administered by the real estate com- mission of the District of Columbia, to be created by authority of the law. This commission would be composed of three persons, to be appointed by the Commissioners of the District of Columbia In appointing the initial commission the terms of the three members would be, respectively, one, two and thee years Thereafter the term of each member would be three years. Annually the commission would organize by selecting from its mem- bers a chairman. Membership. on the real estate com- PYLigia's aabdas w pene vain vocation for a period of at least ten years prior«to. the date of their ap-| potntment shall have been that of a teal estate ‘broker or a real estate salesman within the District of Co- lumbDia. . Fundamentally, the ‘administrative 4 features. of this law follow the gen- eral trend in the developmen: of li- cense laws In other States Twenty- Ave States now have substantially the same law proposed for the District of Columbia. In some instances the ad- ministration of «the law is directed by as single commissioher and the number of *Xommissioners variés in other States. Basically. however, the administration of real estate brokers’ iicense. laws is left to those trained and experienced in real estates prac- tice. In this respect the supervision and. regulation of the personnel in the real estate business is similar to that existing in other professions. In view of the fact that the mem- bers of the commission are not re- qulred:to devote their full time to the duties of their office, the compensa- tion allowed them ts on a nominal per diem basis. Each menfber of the commission shall ‘receive a fee of §10 for each day actually spent on the work of the commission.

Fy Os AAT Small Sums Have Grown to Great Figures in Short Period. }3-YEAR RECORD CITED The. growth of American cities has brought showers of gold tO the own- its of the land, says the National As- ten of Real Estate Boards. ; The fact that cities, both big and pittle, bursting with ‘tncreased pop- lations, have expanded their busi- hess districts and pushed their res!i- ential areas further into the coun- y lanes of yesterday has brought rtune to many people, points out 1 association. * Almost every one has heard of the story of the purchase of Manhattan Island by Peter Minuit from-the In- Gians in the summer of 1626 for trinkets worth $25,.but few people want to wait 200 years for realty gains. ‘wSo the association today gives ex- amples of increases in land values that occurred while the owners could enjoy their profits.. The illustrations are taken from 22 cities. In four of these cities enormous increases took Place in thirteen years. In ten other cities huge increases took place in from one to four years. It can’t make you feel bad to know that you might have bought the site of the Woolworth Buliding from the Indians for a string of beads had you lived in the seventeenh century, but the story of M. P. Crosbie, of Seattle, who made a deposit of 85 on a piece of land in 1902 and got back half a million dollars in 1926 is something to ponder. Let us first take up the thirteen- year increases, In 1912 Ws-Me MeGregor, of Wichi- ta, Kans., sold two lots at the corner of Sixth street and Scott avenue for $10,000. Thirteen years later, in 1925, the same property was sold for $40,- 000, an increase of 400 per cent. No Jinx in These Deals. Ta Houston, Tex., in 1913, a strip of land fronting 128 feet on Main street and running back to a depth of 140 feet was bought at what was then considered a staggering figure. The price paid was $2,600 a front foot. In May, 1926, just 13 years later, a strip adjoining the one just described sold for slightly more than $10,000 a front foot, In 1915 in Kansas City, Mo., Dr. W. S. Woods paid the Atkins trustees $159,000 for a piece of property which now comprises the ground on which the north part of the six-story Boley .Building . now occupies at Twelfgh and Walnut streets. In 1928, a 9-year lease was placed on the land on the basis of a $700,000 valua- tion, am increase of more than a hyalf a million dollars in 13 years. Prank Olander, of*° Rockford, I11., Paid $12,300 for a lot on Seventh street and Fourth avenue in 1900. Thirteen years later he sold the lot to: the Swedish American National Bank for $25,000, an increase of $12,700 or 103 per cent. Here are the examples of increases that occurred in lejs than four years: In Rockford, Til.,:a-lot bought for $1,600 in 1928, sold for $6,000 In 1924. A small farm, in thé~vicinity of Pearl and Ridge Roads in the th- ern section\of greater Cleveland? offered atJeas than $1,000 an acre in\ 1920, In °1924, it was worth more. than $5,000 an acre. | Lot No; 357 { Hamilton's fourth addition on ,-South Calhoun -street.in Fort Wayne,\Ind., was sold in 1922. for $5,000:,-Two years later, the same | lot was gal for. $11,000, In Chicago, the site of the new Medinah Athletic Club on Michigan avenue and Iilipois street in Novem- 1925, was worth $1,060,000. In February, 1929, it was worth $1,802,- 500, an increase of 70 per cent. In Birmingham, Ala. a piece of property bought for $57,000 in 1920 was sold for $112,500 in 1923. In 1919,a piece of ground in Mem- phis, Tenn., 50 by 87 feet, was sold for $14,000. Four years later it brought @55,000, and six months later it was. purchased for $75,000. Two. Years for This Property. Yn- Minneapolis the Meyers Arcade Building at the northwest corner of Nicollet avenue and Tenth street was purchased late in 1921 by a group of men for $125,000, together with a 100- year lease on the land, commencing with an annual rental of °$27,500. Within six months. the building and lease were sold for $250,000. Before 1923 the purchasers disposed of the bullding and lease for $350,000. ‘The sales show a -net~—profit-of $170,000 in Jess than two years, after deducting the ground rentals for two years. In Hammond, Ind., a man who had held .a tract of land which he called his “farm” for three years parted with it in 1924 for $30,000. He had paid $13,000 for it in 1921. $ In 1904 the famous Seeger estate in New Orleans was worth $500,000. Two years later, in April, 1926, the lands of this estate were sold for $2,238,365.

Then this dis- trict had no water or gas and was sub- ject to overfiow. A few months later, when conveniences had been installed and fiood control put in, an $1,800 lot was sold for $6,500. Shortly after- ward the same lot was resold for $13,- 600. Before the end of the year the same parcel of land was being held for ,000. The possibilities of this section for industrial sites was begin- ning to be reflected in the value of the land. Two Million in Forty Years. Forty years ago a Los Angeles real estate man advertised a corner lot on Hill and Sixth streets for sale, with three two-story buildings and two small cottages, for $12,000 for “this week only.” In October, 1927, this corner was worth $12,000 a front foot. The entire tract was worth $2,500,000. It had increased in value $2,488,000 in the 40 years. In Buffado, N. Y., property at Main and Eagle streets was assessed in 1900 at $230,000 and in 1927 at $760,000. At Chippewa and Delaware avenues, @ property was valued at $13,040 in 1900 and at $135,730 in 1927, Madison, Wis., real estate increased $6,000,000 in value during the year from 1922 to 1923. In 1896, John Camlin, a Rockford, Ill., insurance man, purchased a number of lots on- what is now known as Oxford street on the Har- lem Park division, He paid $20 each for his lots and was ridiculed by business friends for the purchase be- cause this property was a sparse prairie dotted with «a few trees. ‘In these same lots for $500. In 20 years, they had jumped in value from 0 to $500, an increase of 2,500 per cent. In Chicago, the southeast corner of State and Lake streets, purchased in 11901 for 250,000 was valued in 1928 for a high rental at $2,305,000. Also in Chicago, land could be bought at Wilson and Broadway in 1900 for $60 a front foot. In 1925 the same land wes earning rentals on the basis of valuations of $10,000 a front. foot, Eight Years Not Long to Wait.

“NEW FINANCE METHODS} HT SLAM May Reach $2,250,000,000! in Business and Industrial Construction. American prosperity is. being re- flected in a record-breaking voluie Of new business ‘and ‘industrial con- ~ before the end of the year, bringing} © the ‘total to -a figure in: excess, of} struction during the ~first eight months of 1929 totaling approximate- ly . 61,825,000,000, according to a Nation-wide survey just made public by Young & Becker Co., of Chicago, specialists in real estate and corpor- ate. financing. In addition to this tremendous ex- penditure, exceeding the huge volume of this type of construction last year by 21 per cent, the survey estimated that another half-billion. would be spent on: néw office, store, theater,|. hotel, garage. and factory buildings $2.250,000,000 While this: gain in “prosperity building” bas been more than. offse* by a 35 per cent decline in residen- tial construction, Young & Becker stated that “the entire building in- dustry is today on a more stable basis than evér before—progressing in or- detly course: marked by. sounder in- vestment construction and an ab- sence Of speculative building.” Stating that there js little likeli- hood of any promounced decreases in duilding costs in the near future, conditions affecting construction ex- _penses were summarized. iri the. sur- vey as follows: (1) Building labor is well employed at highest wages in history; skilled mechanics receiving an average rate Of $1.38 per hour as compared to $135 a year ‘ago. (2) Lower material costs: have off- et. wage inoreases, bringing con- struction cost Jus to. about tie same level as a year ago and about 66 per cen‘, below the peak of June, 1920. (3) Builders turning to stocks and realty investment trusts for financing ‘because’of high money rates and un- favorable bond and mortgage market. New Methods of Financing. An outstanding development of the year, the survey stated, was the an- mnouncement of several large invest- ment trusts to invest in the real es- tate field, and the tendency. of com- mercial builders to turn to stock issues as a means of financing their rojects rather than through the sale of bohds and mortgages. “It is not unlikely,” said the survey, “that the huge aggregation of capital that has been acquired by American investment trusts may become an im- ‘portant factor in the real estate market during the next few months. It is interesting to note that the is- suance of investment trust’ securities during receht months. have been in larger volume than that of all other types of securities combined. If this continues it is obvious that invest- ment trusts must find some other outlet for their capital than the pur- chase of bonds and stocks. There- fore, it is only logicalethat they shou!d turn to investment in. high class property development as a means of obtaining safe and permanent profit- able returns. “Already some important trusts have announced, their intention. of operating to a greater or lesser degree in the rea] estate field, and there are sipevidences that this tendency is in- ‘puilding developments, creasing. Entrance of these trusts ‘into realty financing is being made through. direct investment in : large acting both independently and” in cooperation ‘with well-known builders. Several trusts plan to acquire and develop key locations in New York, Chicago and other large cities, and, in general, employ their capital actively in the real estate market under the dlirec- tion of a management experienced in real estate financing. “Investment trusts will undoubtedly be the means of providing consicer- able necessary business development during the next year with the right type of financing, They will also be no small factor in the elimination of shoe string speculation and pro- motion as their finances wil] only be ‘used for the soundest type of con- struction which is necessary and) as- sured of a substantial appreciation over a period of time. “Finding it difficult at times to compete with the stock markets in obtaining funds for large projects, commercial builders have also found it logical to turn their attention to a new method—oef financing—‘equity securities’ of preferred and common stock, which makes a more attractive offering to investors than do the fixed obligations that are customarily s0ld when money is easy. This has proven a success and stock’ financing is also becoming an important means of financing building through an un- favorable bond and mortgage market. “Corporations in the prosperous in- dustries have had little difficulty in arranging for financing their pro- grams.of_plant expansion as they have been able to meet these expen- ditures out of undispdésed profits or by offering additional shares of stock. Millions Spent for Business. “The expenditure of a quarter of a billion dollars monthly in the United States for industrial and com- mercial building,” continued the sur- vey; “undoubtedly is a strong indica- tor of the Nation’s manufacturing and busin*ss progress. It reflects the increasing insistent demand of Amer- ican business for modern efficient housing for its entefprises, necessi- tating the replacement of thousands of worn-out, antiquated and obsolete office and factory buildings with new up-to-date and more substantial structures. - “Contracts for business and com- mercial structures awarded during the first eight months of this year || totaled nearly $1,550,000,000. Much of this was in the larger cities where many new skyscrapers are piercing the sky lines. In New York, more than 200,000,000 has already been. spent for industrial and commercial buildings, including a score of giant office buildings which. will provide more than 4,500,000 square feet of rentable area in 1930 and 1931. In Chicago the total is nearly $80,000,- 000.

SOAR tre mrt bt wee oe ea ba babes “— OBna WAP WH OOD -IDGerA Wr N we) City Club Notes, G. EB. Bishop, cness direcior of the City Club chess unit, lets it be known that the annual fall tournament play at the local.club will get under way on Saturday, October 19. A combined tournament for Class A and B players will commence on that date as well as a eeparate event for the class players. Members desiring to partici- pate in these contests are requested to post their names on the entrance lists, which will be posted in the near future. Mr. Bishop further wishes to\correct @ few errors which Mr. mitted to creep into his letter rele- vant to the District championship which appeared last week, stating that the latter misunderstood his intent in two instances. In the first place Mr. Bishop states that he has not ap- proached Mr. Walker recently regard- ing a match for the title. He verbally suggested to Mr. Walker about a month ago- that’ they engage in a short, impromptu match at that time, inasmuch as. business duties prevent him from participating very ectively in chess affairs during the fall and winter months. It was not Mr. Bishop's intention to have such a match under formal conditions, nor to have the title involved. Mr. Bishop atates that he is at the present time too busily engaged to find time for a atrenuous titular match. When Mr. Bishop :encountered: Mr Walker in the club championship plav-off last winter he offered the lat- ter a proposition “to play simulta- neously for the District« title. Club rules called for all club champion- Walker per- | ‘ | tions, Uniess untoward develop- ments occur in the District cham- | plonship situation, !t-ts-likely that a ‘committee will be formed to conduct ‘such a tournament.

Unfortunately solvers found Q-—Kt5ch ond solution. in solutions were Jacob Frech, Kassel, F. B. Walker, J. W. P. L. Reed, Clair J. Bressler, Clinton. ¥ Mr. Frech comments: the intended key to R—-KBS8, as it generates nin forced mates. whereas key generates only one simple mate and proves six pleces irrelevand inerts with respect key, viz, White KB and Ps on R4, B2, Kt3 ana black P on Ré4.” The majority of the both the keys to No. 334, of them found the author's No. 333. Mr Mcllvane B--Q2 to be the key move for problem, but all the solvers found could be worked by B--B6ch. Mr. Frech had his troubles with one, and writes: “Problem 333 erates about 31,000,000 series. three days of study of I have been laboring under an session that the two black (QR6 and QKté) commanded QR4, Q@Kt4 and QHB4:; in other that. black’s pawns move -in wrong direction. Consequently could find no forced mate, and on the eve of suggesting that problem is erroneous and that if black P (Kt6) were omitted the problem, one forced mate series can be found among the many millions, viz, 1B—B6; 2Kt—-K5;: 3 mate Q--QB4. I had prepared a pte to you on this obsessed basis w fortunate reverification § d! seovened the error and its cause.

TOTAL IS $27,687,000,000 The wealth of Canada ts held main-, ly in the east, but tne greatest per capita wealth is in the west, accord- ing to figures released by Dominion statisticlans. The average citizen of Ontario, the wealthiest province in the aggregate, has less wealth than his fellow citizen in British Columbia, Alberta or Saskatchewan, while the average citizen in Quebec, the second richest province, would be better off in any of the other provinces except the maritimes. | British Columbia has the highest per capita wealth, $4,032. Alberta comes next with $3,660, then - Sas- katchewan with $3,586. Ontario is fourth with $3,000, and Manitoba and Quebec trail with $276 and $2,631, respectively. The per capita wealth Over the entire Dominion is $2,909. The Dominion statistician com- puted the national wealth for the year 1927 and finds it was approxi- mately %27,687,000,000, as compared with $26,691,000,000 in 1926 and. $22,- 195,000,000 in 1921. It is impossible to estimate exactly the national wealth, and there are sever.l methods of making the approximate estimate. These figures were based on the s0- called “inventory” method, which to- tals the amounts invested in agricul- ture, manufacturing, dwellings, &c. The total agricultural wealth in 1927 was $8,027,301,000. This was the largest {tem in the Dominion’s ha- tional wealth, being 28 per cent of the whole. This includes the value of ag- yicultural production in 1927 of $1,- 730,304,000 to cover the average stock of agricultural goods in the possession of invested in the preparation for the new crop. The second largest item in the na- tional wealth was urban real property, which includes the assessed valuation of taxed and exempted property to provide for undervaluation by as-| sessors for roads, bridges and sewers. This value is placed at $7,238,688,000, or 26.14 per cent of the total. The Dominion has $2,950,000,000 in- vested in ste railways, and forests valued at $1,866,613,000. The value of machinery and tools in manufactur- ing establishments and of land and buildings is about $1,136,455,000, with a further #729,000,000 in materials on hand or stocks in process of manu- facture. Each citizen of the Dominion has $843. invested in agriculture, $760 in urban real property, $310 in steam rail- ways, $196 in forests and $126 in ee furnishings and real prop- erty. | Wall Street Briefs .

T.-May I have, through your able on the Central Public Servicé Corporation and the General Gas & Electric Co. stock as an investment? Answer. — Even though quarterly dividends of 43%, cents per share cre being paid on the Class A stock of the Central Public Service Corpora- tion, it is not regarded as an invest~ ment, but as a speculation. However, along with practically all other se- curities in the public utilities class, the stock has considerable long-term attractiveness on earning and divi- dend ' General Gas & Elec- tric Corporation reports net income after interest, depreciation, taxes, pre- ferred dividends of subsidiaries, mi- nority intereste; &c., for the year ended June 30, 1929, of $4,416,580, compared. with $3,390,010 in the pre- vious fiscal year. Chey oe | has sev- eral classes on which dividends are earned with stibstantial margins. rated as a “fair” class of investment. ‘There are also issues of common Class A and B on which dividends, regular and extra, ate being paid. These issues are like- wise well regarded for long-term hold- ing. Control of the company was acquired in February, 1929, by the Associated Gas é Electric Co., through acquisition of a majority of stock. United Power & Light. K. ©. C—wWill you please give me information on United Light & Power common and Southern ifornia Edl- son? Are they investments and are the companies well managed? Answer.— ings of United Light & Power have shown stéady expan- sion since the acquisition of American Light & Traction in 1928, and returns for the twelve months endéd June 30, 1929, amounted to $1.75 a share on the combined A_ and B common; stocks. In the calendar year 1928 net income amounted to $1.36 per share and in 1927 to but 76 cents a share. Dividend on both classes of common has recently been increased 12 cents a shate annually, to 60 cents. As a speculation the shares appear to have considerable attraction for the long pull. Southern California Edi- son at. current prices seems to have discounted any reasonable increase in earnings in the near future. How- ever, the issues, while low priced right now, are well thought of for long- term holding. Both companies named appear to be well managed, Too Late. Miss L. M. D., Norfolk, Va-~—Will you please secure market information relative to the inclosed list of oil, copper and wireless telephone stocks issued some time ago? Answer.—It is with regret that you are advised that there is no avall- able data in any of. the standard books of reference on any of the companies you mention and as far as can be ascertained no market value on any of these securities. This column was originated for the purpose of aiding unwary investors to avoid radical speculations and “gambles” of this character, but ad- vice must be sought before rather than after investment is made. This column can be no service to you at this time on these particular is- sues. The harm has been done. Fisk and Schulte. W. F. C—Would you _ advise buying a few shares of Fisk Rubber me Schulte Stores to hold for a rise Answer.—You are evidently intent upon speculating, or, in other words, gambling, and this column has no advice to give in the premises. The stocks you mention may be, and probably are, all right for long term holding, although at present con- sidered highly speculative. Nevér- theless, it is not the function of this column to give advice regarding speculative market: operations, but only as concerns investments. Associated .Gas & Electric, Mrs. I. M. C.—WiIll you kindly give me your opinion of Associated Gas & Electfic Class A stock? Also is the common stock a good buy? Answer.—Associated Gas & Electric Co. is working into a strong: position in the Eastern utility field and oute- look for the very long-term future is promising. However, simplification of capitalization will undoubtedly re- quire a number of years. Thus the Class A stock must be classed as. a speculation and should be held only if you are willing and able to disre- gard intermediate fluctuations should hold for a period for at least three to five years. Packard Motors. J. C-—Kindly give me your advice on Packard Motor’s new stock, which I hold. Answer.—Packard Motor Car Co, is an outstanding producer from sétana- point of sales volume of high priced automobiles and one of the most try. The issue, a speculative favorite, is subject to wide price fluctuations but has definite attraction for long- term holding. New Haven Railroad. Miss H. P.—For an investment of $1,000, what do you think of the fol- lowing? Timken Roller Bearing, Alle- ghany, Erie, Shattuck, Simmons and New York, New Haven & Hartford Answer—aAll issues mentioned have points. of attratcion for long-term hoRiing as speculative issues In your position, however; with but $1,000 to invest, would suggest that you buy a high-grade bond or a well-seasoned preferred stock. Bullard Co. L. F. P.—I have been reading your “Advice to Investors” with great in- teerst, and would appreciate what- ever information you can give me on the Bullard Co., listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Answer—The Bullard Co. is one of the outstanding manufacturers of machinery, producing essential equip- ment for practically every industry in which iran and -steel products ere made. The company also does a sub- stantial foreign business. The com- pany has no funded debt, preferred’ stock or bank loans and ‘is in strong financial position. Net profits in 1928 were equivalent to $5.11 per share of common stock, and earnings for the first four months of this year were considerably in excess of those of the same period of 1928. It is offi- quotations, the issue would appear to have decided attraction for long- term holding. — boa - STEAMSHIPS te ed 18 DAY TOURS © BARBADOS INCLUSIVE RATE %225.

W.—I have been asked to Buy shares of the Detroit & Canada Tunnel Co., inco ted under the laws of Michigan. Please advise me about this stock. Are Washington Gas Light Co. bonds, series A and B. safe? There has been so much dis- cussion in the newspapers recently .in regard to ownership of the Waésh- ington Gas Light Co. that I have hesitatéd ‘to invest in more of. these bonds. Answer—In view of the fact that the tunnel being constructed by the Detroit & Canada Tunnel Co. under the Detroit River from Detroit to Witidsor, Ont., was only 50 per cent completed at as late a date as August 8, 1929, the stock must of necessity be regarded as highly speculative. The stock is “listed” in the over- the-counter market and is quoted at about $5 bid, offered at $625 for the common. Both the series A and series B bonds of the Washington Gas & light Co. are rated “sound” by one of the most highly regarded authorities on bonds. Central Copper Cod. Cc. J. W.—wWII you please give me some information about the Central Copper Co. of Arizona? The stock is not listed on the exchange. Answer—As a general proposition it is wise to keep clear of any stock: not listed on some reputable exchange. In this instance it appears doubly so. No statement of earnings of this com- pany is available, and it is stated that conditiong encountered at the company’s properties below the fourth level have proven a great disappoint- ment to'the management. Further- more, it is stated that the Massa- chusetts Department of Public Utili- ties had issued an order that sale of Central Copper Co. with properties in Arizona was fraudulent or would result in fraud. Large Lake Located In Alaska by Survey Anchorage, Alaska, Oct. 5 (A.P.).— Discovery of a lake of 900 acres area. 2,500 feet above sea level, was one of the results of the Navy's Alaska serial survey, B. F. Heintzleman, assistant district forester, at Juneau, an- nounced. The discovery was by Commander A. W.: Radford, on the east shore of Takue Inlet, between Greeley Point and Jaw Point, about 2%4 miles from beach. It is estimated that between 20,- 000 and 25,000 horsepower of elec- tricity is capable of development through the use of the lake waters.

The general belief of thé past, ac- | cording to university officials that law was taught only for the individual | desiring to pfactice it, does not hold as a result of this survey and in the future there will be an even greater tendency for persons to study law for thé purpose of applying the result of their study in any line of endeavor Thesis Study Candidates for doctorate degrees will be required this year to begin at Ohce the preparation of their thesis. according to Chancellor Charles F.

INVITATION TO HISS AND A ‘GUESS AT A NOISY FUTURE By NELSON B. BELL O longer ago than last Wedriesday I was petitioned by a stanch advocate of the apparently obsolescent silent drama to cast my lot with Mr. Welford Beaton, publisher of the Film Spec- ~tator, and assist in my small and sibilant way in hissing the audible - Movie off the screen. It is Mr. Beaton’s view, and my petitioner’s, I , beliéve, that the synchronized celluloids are destroying illusion and “putting in-fts place an unimaginative and a stark reality -by which - they are annoyed, tormented and irked no end. This is a position I can not bring myself to embrace. The more tenable view, it seems to me, is that any dévelopment that tends to Yeduce the limitations under which the cinema has been forced to ‘labor should be looked upon as a step along the way of progress to pe cherished and applauded. The addition of sound and-votce to the _ mages reflected upon the silver sheet has doubled their power of con- vincing expression, and the perfection of color has done the same for their pictorial realism. Now the improv ement and general adoption ‘Of the full stage-size screen and wide-angle photography and pro- jection bid fair to produce the stereoscopic effect of a third dimension and so still further free the motion picture from the narrow restric- tions that made illusion its most conspicuous guality because it was upable to offer anything more substantial or tangible with which to nurture public enthusiasm. The pictures that are most widely popular today were impossible ef. production prior to 1926, when the Warners first startled the _ @musement world with theif successful exploitation of Vitaphone. . They are vocal and have apprehended the means of utilizing literary as well as purely pantomimic and pictorial qualities to broaden the field of their appeal and reach, at popular prices, a public to which the treasures of the theater previously were denied. This, happily, is susceptible of easy proof by three distinguished phonoplay offerings to be presented upon the screens of the Capital this week, oné of them already having run a fortnight to record- breaking business. uv ¢ . T has never been my contention that all pictures and all players should be rendered articulate. On the contrary, I have been in- sistent in my opinion that many of both should‘be kept mute. It is my belief; however, that more have been aided by audibility than have been handicapped. Conspicuous among the number of players 0 benefited is Will Rogers. The Sage of Claremore is no newcomer to the films, but he is @ newcomer to the ranks of those who, when the final count is cast up, ‘will be found to have proved irresistible box-office magnets. This is enty now effectually demonstrated by the coming of ‘‘They Had to See Paris’ to the Fox. There will be few among the seasoned picture-goers who will not reca)] that for years Rogers was an actor who never quite clicked with the flicker fans, although a majority of his pictures revealed no .shortcomings of sufficient importance to account for the public difference to the manifold virtues that so far outnumbered their de-, in- feets. He just didn’t get over. Yet on the stage he was a riot. It was all in being heard. Heaven knows, and so does he, that the gum-chéewing, rope-throwing philosopher of the ranges is no thing ©f beauty to look at. As a glittering spectacle for the eve he is a complete and noble bust. But to listen to... And so we work around again to ‘‘They Had to See Paris.” Here we have a Will Ragers who never could have made himself wholly known to the picture public through the medium of the silent film. His appeal is preponderantly to the ear and the auricular sense of humor. Given the facilities for manifesting the talents with which he js most generously endowed, he is a better actor and a funnier comedian for the camera in. his first all-talkie than he-ever was on the stage. His is a sustained characterization, leavened and en- li¥éned by a steady drumfire of satirical wit that does not fail him even when his role of Pike Peters takes on something of emotional depth. Strip the part of its audibility and it might not be even so great as ‘“‘Jubilo”’ or “‘Jes’ Call Me Jim.” Is it no advantage that the talking picture is able to encompass the whole, rounded personality of a man, instead of merely its least at- tractive aspects? UT the talking screen has done more than merely vitalize talents B that silence could not disclose, let alone da justice. It has made posible forms of shadow entertainment that the camera unaided by the microphone never could have recorded. “The Hollywood Revue,” for example. The first of the dialogue, true revue form, new housed at the Columbia, bereft of its commo- tious, songs and cross-fires would be something less than a magni- fled “Screen Snapshots” in interest and, of course, never would have ‘peen undertaken. As it is, this glorified vaydevitie show—in addition to providing almost a plethora of clever a¢ts—vwil] stick in the memory of every amusement seeker who views it as the picture that revealed with what | It seems to have been the purpose of those who sponsored this film to assign to each | of the seemingly endless procession of stars a task as far removed | from his or her usual line of endeavor as could conveniently be ar- ‘ranged. Joan Crawford and Conrad Nagel sing; Marion Davies does @ tap dance; Laurel and Hardy turn out to be burlesque jugglers; Buster Keaton a Salome dancer, and so on through the-long list. There is not a participant in the revue but is the gainer by virtue of surrendering fo the informality of the occasion and doing his stuff | ‘as he might at an Intimate private party. All are possessed of a - « . s “ @egree of versatility thatthe silent screen never would have had any | excuse for attempting to discover. If it had discovered the rich endowments of its favorite stars it would not have known what to do with them and the cash customer never would have found out-that Marie Dressler, Bessie Love and Polly Moran can create just as much havoc with a comic song as Cliff Edwards, Charlie King and Gus Edwards; or that Norma Shearer and John Gilbert can do the balcony scene from.‘‘Romeo and Juliet” as well as Jane Cowl and any of her _ beading men, and then convert it into an hilarious travesty by “translating Will Shakespeare's classic lines into the peppy patois of the sheik and sheba of this torrid rumble- seat era and calling it *‘The Neckers.”’ The sereen {s an infinitely more expansive agency of mirth when it talks. a : ~ * O an even greater degree than ‘“‘They Had to See Paris,’’ I should say, ‘The Gold Diggers of Broadway,” entering its third week at the Metropolitan, makes clear to what extent the microphoned musical drama is able to add to the riches of the cinéma.

That, perhaps, is an excessive @emand, since there can be no comparison. The day will come—and it is not so distant—when the seemingly thoving image on the screen, given sound and yoice, made natural by the tints and shades of nature and lent the effect of depth by the stereoscopic wide-angle photography and projection, will so closely ef _ approximate players in the flesh, and places in actuality, that a choice yy between the stage and the soreen will be reduced to a matter of whim, » Aafiuenced, if at all, by the purchasing power of the individual.

ROGERS SMASH CRASHES INTO FOX FOR WEEK Will Rogers’ first all-talking pic- ture, the Fox Movietone comedy drama, “They Had to See Paris,” "now at the Fox Theater, is adapted from Homer Croy’s widely read novel; with the dialogue by Owen Davis, sr., dean of American playwrgihts. The story deals with the experi- ences in Paris of the Peters family of Oklahoma after it has become sud- denly rich from an oil gusher. Mfrs. Peters is ambitious to consort with nobility “and, after renting an ex- pensive chateau, stages a reception to which many titled people are in- vited, but who demand payment in advance for appearing at the func- tion. Among them is a grand -duke who asks the top price of $1,000. Peters is not in sympathy with this prosadeings but is out-maneuvered by is wife and daughter, Opal. One of the guests is the Marquis de Brissac Cordray, to whom Mrs. Peters. de- termines to marry her daughter. Meanwhile, Peters becomes more or less intrigued by Claudine, a cafe entertainer, and Ross Peters; the son; becomes enmeshed in a romance with a cocotte known as Fleurie In due-course,..the..marquis ‘pro- poses to Opal, but demands a set- tlement of half a million dollars, which Peters refuses to pay, ending the argument by practically pitching the marquis out of the chateau, Mrs. Peters, disappointed and in- censed at this action, decided to mend matters by agreeing to pay the — herself, and relations between the a ad and Opa] are resumed. rs, during the interim, discovers Pa relations of Ross and Fleurie and takes drastic means to break them up. He puts on a love scene with Claudine and takes pains that Ross shall] see /t. The boy is thoroughly shocked. He hurries to the chateau to accugé his mether of having driven his father to. the act,.and mother, son and daughter rush to Claudine’s apartment to in- vestigate. This is only a brief sketch of the rich plot, which has an unusual climax. enacts the role of Pike Irene Rich appears as the Marguerite Churchill is the daughter and Owen Davis, jr., the son. Fifi Dorsay, a French actress who was & sensation in Paris and in New Yorx, is. seen as Claudine. Ivan Lebedeff is the marquis and Christiane Yves plays Fleurie.

The contract was awarded her as the result of the ex- ceptional work she did in adapting the talking screen “Sarah and Son,” a novel J Timothy Shen, to be published this fall. Ruth Chatterton, noted stage and screen actress, who has appeared in “The Doctor's Secret,” “The Dummy,” “Madame X,” and “Charming Sin- ners,” was signed to a new contract. Her next picture will be “The Laugh- ing Lady,” with Clive Brook, to be made at the Paramount Long Island studio. When she finishes this pro- duction she will return to the coast to do “Sarah and Son.” Kay Francis, the brunette Broad- way stage actress whom Hollywood now callg “the best-dressed woman in America,” was another one to ac- cept a new Paramount contgact. Miss Francis made her talking film debut in “Gentlemen of the Press” and is now at work in one of the featured roles of “The Children,” based upon Edith Wharton's best seller. She plays prominent roles in two other Paramount films soon to be released, “Illusion,” from Arthur Train’s novel, and “Behind the Make- up,” from Mildred Cram’s story, “The Seena Owen, who was one of the most popular movie players a decade ago, also was signed for a prominent role in “The Children,” as were two other veteran actors, Maude Turner Gordon afid Gordon de Main.

Ludvig Berger and Louis Gasnier were the’ two directors to obtain contracts. Berger is now finishing the direc- tion of “The Vagabond King,” «a lavishly produced musical romance, starring Dennis King. He was im- ported several years ago from the UFA studio in Germany, where he made “The Waltz Dream,” one of the highly praised films of 1926. Gasnier, a veteran director, recent- ly concluded his first talking picture, “Darkened Rooms,” starring Evelyn Brent. His next assignment is Richard Arlen’s first starring effort. ANN HARDING MAKES DEBUT BEFORE LENS Tired from etrentious work on the New York stage over a of sev- éra] years, Ann Harding went to California for a rest. Tentetjve plans for hér next stage season had already been begun before Miss Harding left New York, s6 shé made no effort to inquire into the possibilities of mo- tion pictures. She even took up her residence in Pasadena instead of Hol- lywood or Beverly Hills to assure her- Self of the rest she longed for. One day Miss ety was invited to have lunch at the Pathe Studio with Frank Reicher, director of dia- logue for the talking pictures made at that studio, who was-about to begin work on “Paris Bound.” After lunch- eon, Reicher proposed a screen test. She agreed Next day Reicher phoned her to come out and. see the test. Miss Harding was forced to admit that the test was more than a success. Before she left Reicher prevailéd uper Miés Harding to sign a contract, and with- in a week rehearsals for “Paris Bound” were in progress. Those who have seen previews of this picture, which is now playing the Rialto Theater, report that her work in it is nothing short of sensational. “Paris Bound” is an adaptation of Philip Barry’s stage success. ~Out- standing as a play, the picture com-., bines the graphic realism of the Stage with the wider seope of the screen. The film production has the further advantage of offering to pic+ ture patrons a warm and scintillat- ing personality in Ann Harding, who brings to the talking screen an ex- quisite and fascinating voice and an art that ils destined to establish her in the front rank of picture lumi- naries. The plot of “Paris Bound” deals daringly with the question of whether it is possible for a man and wife to ilove each other deeply and devotedly and yet find a strong attraction in others of the Opposite sex. The time- honored triangle is* displaced by a} novel four-sided domestic tangle. Ann Harding and Frederic March are seen as the young married couple upon whose adventures the story is based. Carmelita Geraghty and Leslie Fenton appear in the roles of the two who, in their separate orbits, are responsible for the probléms which confront the wedded lovérs, as well as the solution at which they arrive. Other important roles are played by Ilka Chase, Jultette Crosby, Char- lotte Walker. Hallam Cooley and George Irving. The newsreel and other short sound features complete the progratn. Famine Feared. Peéssimists are already worrying over @ possiblé shortage of Easter bunnies next year owing to Hollywood’s de- mand for felt. The talkies are re- sponsible. Felt is used to line the sound stages; it is also used to carpet the floors to deaden sound, and is put around camera booths and micro- phones. Almost 500 yards of it were used last week on one set alone: JACK’S FIRST — TALKING FILM ADAPTED PLAY “Would I rather be a director than an actor?” Lionel Barrymore screwed his face into a grimace of pain and rubbed his nose refiectively. “Well, we all Hke to do something different from what Wwe afe accus- tomed to doing. I always have found acting a gratifying tum of expres- sion. But I am happier as a director than I ever was as an actor. I hate to say it, but I hope I never have to act again!” Directing “His.Glorious Night,” now at Loew’s Palace, with John Gilbert as the star, Barrymore was regarded at the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studio as having achieved foremost promi- nence in the motion picture industry as a talkie director. His “Glorious Night,” the picturiza- tion of the Ferenc Molnar play, “Olympia,” in which Gilbert plays a dashing dialogue role, is said to pte- sent an even ter directorial ac- complishment n the previous Bar- rymore productions, “I am not unmindful of the tre- mendous equipment with which my acting career fitted me for my tasks as @ director,” related Barrymore. One thing I learned is to allow each actor to gét away from -the constant directorial prodding—to let him think he is doing it all by himseff—not merely going through the motion and lines like an automaton. “Since I have been directing, I sel- dom have found it necessary to in- terrupt a player in a scene. I may see it going wrong, not getting as much out of the dialogue as it should, but I don’t stop the scene unless the weaknesses aré too fre- quently occurring, preferring to. allow the players to digcover the faults themselves: when they hear the ‘play- backs. They can tell then just what ig wrong and understand the reasons for doing it over more readily and comprehensively than if I stop- ped: the ecene and began ranting at them.” On the stage Frank Cambria’s lat- est production, “Jazz Clock Store” will be presented with Al Evans, “the prince of good fellows,” and the Palace Syncopators as the local fea- tures. The visiting artiste are headed by Bob Le Salle, comedjan; Paul Kirkland, inimitable entertainer; Bard and Avon, in gems of songland: The Tiffany Twins, dancing jewels: Jim Rentch, dancer and the Fred Evans Ensemble.

DALY ONDON, evidently, is on the heels of Premier MacDonald. While he ‘is being feted. and dined. in Washington, a London company of thespians comes to the Belasco to play a success- : ful English farce, ‘‘The Middle, Watch,” coauthored by Ian Hay and Stephen King-Hall, a couple of fellows from the empire. One of those rarefied beauties of the feminine contingency of press agents;-Miss Isabel Stone, came posthaste to Washington this week in a frantic effort to have the entire British embassy turn out to wel- come’ the visiting actors. Alas, Mr. Arch Selwyn who, with Charles B. Cochran, the British producer, stands sponsor for this opus, for- got all about the roundelay of official welcoming to Ramsay MacDon- ald—and they hooked the American premier of a British farce on the very night President Hoover. set aside as his own. Oh, well—the arts and politics—or is it statemanship—-seldom go together. # eo 20 “ee: @ : O beat the straight line: dramatic fare to an opening, George Choos—of whom that-famous line was not fashioned, I do not Choos to run—sends his musical comedy, “Hello Yourself,’”’ into Poli’s tonight. Mr. T. D. Bonneville, manager, has high hopes of a “standing room only” sign begng flung across the Avenue. This is one of those younger generation affairs, where boys and girls make merry in twentieth century fashion and, so, has nothing whatsoever to. do with dull care. At the National, the Theater Guild tomorrow night’ starts on a young season all its own, with several plays booked in succession. It happens that Eugene O’Nelill’s play, “‘Marco Millions’ ts the first piece offered. This is the play.O’Neill wrote with his tongue in his cheek. From the first moment of it—indeed from the-first line of O’Neill’s preface, which the audience does not see at all—O’Neill’s cheek-line bulges with mischief... He calls his play with complete gravity “an attempt to render poetic justice to one long famous as a traveler, unjustly world-renowned as a liar, but sadly unrecognized by posterity in his true eminence as a man and a citizen—Marco Polo of Venice.” . ‘ By way..of “‘white washing.the good soul of that maligned Vene- tian,’”’ Mr. O’Neil] turns the waters of those blue lagoons into a green as green as the cover of a pool table, and makes of Marco Polo a pillar of Main street, a cartoon of a man of action, a getter of worldly goods, a modern millionaire. The Venice of his starting point is, forsooth, the skyscrapered business section of any great American city. : : O'Neill gouged a nugget out of history, cut and polished it to his own personal satisfaction. ‘‘Marco Millions’. makes no pretense to be just or historical. It merely happens to be so, in spots. Men of his time did really give the Messer Polo a nickname of Marco Millions. Not-because of his untold wealth, necessarily, but because he always talked in such round numbers. He was probably a bit difficult to believe, too, insisting on everything in terms of mil- lions. Doubtless that was O’Neill’s cue: Out of that circumstance must have come this parody, this cycle of Cathay. Otherwise, Marco Polo’s self-revelations are desultory indeed, and outside the interpre- tations of him are equally meager. ; Concerning a few details of the handsome O’Neill scheme, ‘‘Marco Millions” has Polo inventing paper money. In his own account Polo speaks of paper money as having been in existence in China when he arrived there, and of its wide use in Yang-chau, where he governed. It was really a huge sling which catapulted stone instead. How generally right Mr. O’Neill is about his Marco’s rare account of his stern and energetic governorship of the province of Yang-chau may be taken pretty well for granted after reading some of the gen- uineé Marco’s measures. For instance, the one by which he segregated the tenderloin of the Chinise capital, Cambaluc, outside the city, and wherein wayfarers abroad after the curfew hour were arrested and beaten to death if they could mot give a satisfactory explanation of their straying. | The Princess Kukachin and her wasted love for Marco Millions is more or less a pure invention of Mr. O’Neill’s. Polo, true, did oblige his imperial benefactor by taking a Kukachin along in his home- bound fleet and delivered her to a Persian marriage ceremony; but the real Kukachin of Polo’s account was a rather obscure court lady no kin at all to Kublai Kaan, and certainly nothing like the light of his old life. | The voyage did last two years, and. Polo scantily remarks of the hardships the fleet endured. One version of his chronicles relates that most of the retinue of 600 perished on the way: But no version at all is behind Mr, O’Neill in his allusion to Marco’s several rescues of the young adorer from the waves that swept hep overboard, from the pirates and the fevers which beset her. O’Neill’s power to read into a curious and dévious old travelogue such living scorn and modernism is a tribute paid him by Elmer Ken- yon, national director of the Drama League, who calls attention to the rea] and the unreal Polo himself, a fellow who never saw playe the game named after him. ° * é a * : 1 are, indeed, some interesting characters in the world. Twenty-three years ago a young Hungarian art student, just safely past the barriers of Ellis Island, walked up that part of Rroad- way set apart from the marts of trade by the appellation ‘The Rialto.’ In his pocket he had $40 and-a-letter to Baron von Bardel- ben, husband of Fritzi Scheff. Stopping at the Casino Theater, where the popular star was then playing, he paused for a moment. Dazzled eyes drank in the glories of Broadway. He went into the lobby to find Baron von Bardeleben and present his letter of introduction. He left a few moments later with a job, but not a job tn that magic land of the theater that had so gripped his imagination. However, without realizing it he had actually taken the first step along a road that was to make him an important part of Broadway. Twenty-three ‘years later to the month he again walked: into the-Casino--Theater, this time, however, as George Choos, producer of the musical comedy success ‘‘Hello Yourself.” It ran at the Casino all fall‘and winter and has just completed a summer run in Chicago. It comes to Poli’s tonight. George Choos’ first job was simply the coloring of postcards for the firm the Baron headed at so much per card. Within a week, however, young Choos figured out a stencil that allowed him to color several hundred cards a day. He was put in charge of an act staff. A short time later the famous Thaw murder trial came up and pic- tures of Evelyn Nesbit were being printed throughout the land, Choos got the photographer to make him up prints, which he colored with his stencil process and sold through stores. This netted him a young fortune. ‘ Through his association with the baron he became even more interested in the theater, was a constant attendant at both the legiti- mate and vaudeville theaters. He opened a vaudeville production office. His acts became sought after by the various vaudeville agencies. Finally the Keith office gave him a contract to produce for them exclusively. Within a year the name of George Choos was as well known to dramatic desks and vaudeville audiences as those of many headliners. To this day Mr. Choos continues to produce elaborate vaudeville acts, but the past five years has been concentrat- ing on legitimate productions. ' Choos had produced a number of musical comedies which toured successfully the cities outside of New York. With this experience he felt himself equipped to launch out as a Broadway impresario. Ona trip abroad he discovered a paint preparation, purchased the Ameri- can rights and leased them to the Shuberts, Ziegfeld and Sam Harris for his Music Box Revue. Profits spread to a staggering total. | Now well able to afford the gamble of Broadway, he produced “Mr. Battling Butler,”’ which ran for 54 weeks, and then played other large cities to even greater success. Next came “‘The Busybody,” which was not a box-office success. However, it did well enough, so that between New York and road tour Choos got back his entire in- vestment. Since that time he has been interested in several other productions with other Broadway interests. Meanwhile he kept his eyes.open for a musical comedy that would have the same general appeal as “Battling Butler.” When Walter DeLeon, author, brought him the book of “Hello Yourself” he knew he had found his piece. Mr. Choos read the script one afternoon, called in Leo Robin and Richard Myers to write the lyrics and music and four weeks later the , piece was in rehearsal. he _ would Dodo Watt —Belasco. YOUTHFULNESS KEYNOTE OF A MUSICOMEDY Youthfulness, speed and pep are the keynotes of the snappy collegiate musical comedy; “Hello Yourself,” which George Choos brings to Poli’s Theater tonight for an engagement of one week, For the past year it has been playing in New York.and Chi- cago. Reports are that it is diverting entertainment. With Walter DeLeon’s book begin- ning with a students’ revolt against a faculty edict prohibiting autos, gambling and necking on the campus and ending with the hero winning a .play-writing contest and the inev- itable girl, the- plot serves--merely as . background for a night of special- ties. “Hello Yourself” is one of the new- type musicals that blends straight musical comedy and revue. Intricate convolutions without number keep the stage filled with dancing girls. Between times the various principals and some of the chorus go-through specialties. In the lengthy cast of principals are Helen Goodhue, incidentally, a Wash- ington girl and a cousin of Mrs. Cal- Vin Coolidge; Dave Ray, Walter Plim- mer, jr., Florence Lucile Hedges, Al Nord, Garnet.

BRIEF SEASON | OF OLD OPERA BOOKED HERE With grand opera news coming over the wires from all over the United States, it is gratifying to know that Washington will enter .the dists early in January with a return of the Ger- man Grand Opera Company, of which S. Hurok is managing director. T. Arthur Smith, local ‘Manager, is to Sponsor the brief season of. Wagner and Mozart opera and reservations are now being made at his concert bu- reau for season tickets for the operas. The Washington season opens with “The Flying Dutchman” of Wagner, which received a brilliant revival at the Wagner-Mozart festival in Munich last summer. Writing on this revival, Albert Noelte in Musical Courier said: “There is much to be said in favor of this innovation, In the first place this work is a sort of musieal com- pendium to the later.Wagner, while in regard to-perfection of fornr and unity of style it far exceeds some of the later works.” . The Dutchman grips the imagina- tion with the heroics of love and legends. In the legend we are told that a Duteh captain once tried -to double the Cape of Good Hope in the teeth of a furious gale, and swore accomplish his purpose even if he kept sailing forever.. The Devil heard the oath, and condemned the unhappy captain to sail the sea until] the day of judgment. Like a Wandering Jew, he roams the vast oceans seeking for his one hope of release, the love of a faithful woman. Wagner takes the story as the fan- tastic sallor comes into harbor and there finds his true love. He enters amid gales of wind and mystery.of music such as only Wagner knows how to weave. But a lyric Wagner is here, with tunefulnegss in the light and graceful music of Senta and her maidens, and with robust. choruses of mariners that give an added attrac- tion to the opera. Washington's other novelty is the “Don Juan” of Mozart that is con- ceded to be Mozart’s masterwork and. one of the world’s imperishable mas- terpieces; It adds variety to the four operas to be presented, with its vocal ornamentation for singers and its bright caprice in drama, and Mr. Hurok promises it a delicate and ex- quisite performance. Wagner's ‘‘Tris- tan and Isolde” will also be sung, with a choice between “Die Walkure” (the Valkyries) and “Die Gotterdam- merung” (Twilight of the Gods), from the Niebelungen, which is reserved for the Washington public. The Ger- man Grand Opera Company has many new singers from the Berlin and VI- enna operas this season, with some 150 artists in all and an orchestra of 54 players. Truly, January 6 opens a Wagner-Mozart festival for Wash- ington. Father of Stars. Fred Kerr, who plays the role of the choleric admiral in “The Middle acterizations, appearing in America in several of Frederick Lonsdale’s plays, and in Somerset Maughan’s “Mrs. Dot.” He has a close link to the American stage in his son, Geof- frey Kerr, and his charming daughter- in-law, Jume Walker, both Broadway stars.

B. Cochran produc- tion, which will open for a week’s engagement at the Belasco Theater, in October 7, preceding its Broadway premier. Written by Commander Stephen King-Hall, in collaboration with Ian Hay, the play is punctili- ously correct in nautical details. Preparedness, in “The Middie Watch,” does not take the form of new cruisers or battelships, but the ability of the Captain of H. M. S. Fal- con to cope with the difficult situa- tions arising from the involuntary shanghaling of two young ladies when, the cruiser unexpectedly sets out to sea. After solving the prob- lems involved in finding appropriate sleeping apparel and quarters for the impromptu guests while keeping concealed from a strait-laced admiral wend his jealous wife, a naval engage- ment would seem mild in comparison An entire British cast was im- ported for the production, with the exception of Miss Ruth Abbott, who was sent to London by Mr. Selwyn to play the leading role of Mary Carlton a typically American type. The com- pany includes Fred Kerr, well-known English, actor; Robert Mawdesley Dodo Watts, Alfred Wellesley, George Carr and J. Sleigh. SHAKESPEARE SOCIETY HAS BIG PROGRAM The Shakespeare Society will inau- gurate its 1929-1930 season tomorrow night—in-the auditorium of the Cor- coran Art Gallery with a lecture by Dr. Cotton Smith on “Shakespeare as a Spiritual Force.” This will be followed by sceriés from “‘Pwelfth Night,” with tHe following. cast: Viola. Amelia M. Olmstead; Olivia, Kate Tomlinson; Maria, Edith Allnut; Mal- volio, Thomas Cahill; Feste, Clarence E. Ruebsam; Duke, Leslie Waudby. The society meets at the Corcoran Galléry the first Monday of each month. Some particularly interest- ing programs have been arranged by Dr. E. V. Wilcox, the society's presi- dent. The speakers include Dr. J. T Marrinet, Dean John Calvin Metcalf, Prof. Douglass Bement, Prof. William Corbin and Prof. Y. A. Chang, who will discuss “Chinese Tragedy and Shakespearean Tragedy.” A George Washington University night has been reserved for the Aprii meeting, when Prof. De Witt C. Crois- sant will speak on “Lyrics in the Restoration’ Period.” This will be followed by a Shakespearean scene, played in the restoration manner by the Dramatic Club, under the direc- tion of Mr. Denis Connell. In Jan- uary, Hon, James Montgomery Beck will lecture on “Shakespeare and the Law.” His lecture will be followed by the trial scene from the “Mer- chant of Venice,” in which Dr. Earle Wilfley will enact the part of Shy- lock an? Kate Tomlinson will essay the role of Portia. Other players who have already been assigned parts are: Ada Louise Townsend, W. E. Bryant, May J. Bryant. Rosemary Arnold. John D, Long, Esther Galbraith. Eliz- abeth M. Phillips and Eldrige Monroe. The society finds-in Mrs. Charles B. Hanford a worthy successor to her illustrious husband. Her brilliant successes upon the professional stage in the past are not surpassed by her success as a director. The sugges- tions offered by her give to the scenes as presefited by the society a profes- sional touch which is much com- mented upon by. its audiences. Unusual use of a band as a musical comedy feature is made with Tommy Bohn’s Penn-Sirens in “Hello Your- self,” at Poli’s Theater this week. The boys, all collegians, play parts during the two acts, and in the “nal scene blossom forth as a radio orchestra.

O'Neill, at heart a poet, bathes his acidulous fun in. an atmosphere that turns the theater into a _ traveler’s holiday.

This new edition is a wealth of. surprises, some of witich-are highly sensational. For instance, the dancing stunts are about the speediest and most exciting ever seen on any stage. The song numbers, of which there are many. are refreshingly new, corresponding with the general modern tone of the en- tire performance, for which an en- tirely new and fanciful scenic and costume outfit has heen. provided. ' “Verne,” the beautiful French doll, and Tommy Levene, the Hebrew comic genius, are featured. ‘Among the other burlesque celeb- rities may be mentioned Charles Rob- inson, Don Trent, Blanche Burnette, week to open his sixth season as con- ductor of the Boston Symphony Or- to launch out on Its forts-ninth sea- son. Almost immediately upon .his arrival, Koussevitzky spoke at length on his plans for the coming season and ‘was not at all reluctant to say that he finds the work of young American composers more interesting than their European confreres. By way of illustrating his interest in the native composers, Koussevitzky will offer, during the coming season, a symphony by Aaron Copland, sev- eral tone poems by Werzer Josten, and Roger Sessions, as well a8 @ re- markable new composition by a fourth American, Samuel Gardner, | called “Broadway.” which will require Nour expert saxophonists for its rendi- tion. At least one saxophonist of the requisite virtuosity will have to be engaged specially for this perform- ance. However; there are a numbér of Eu- ropean works that -Koussevitzky has brought back for presentation in America this season. There will be 4 concerto grosso by the Roumanijan, Lazar, whose ~ ne has appeared be- fore on Koussevitzky programs, and Prokofieff’s.-Third..Symphony.is.an- other scheduled for performance. Mr Koussevitzky’s portfolio includes a prelude. and fugue by the Italian, Pick-Mangiagalli, whose name is 4 hew one in American ears. Honegger, the composer of that much-discussed “Pacific 231,” has composed a suite of Bach transcriptions which Kous- sevitzky, who usually “detests” Bach transcriptions, calls “too charming to be resisted.” The older composers will be heard from, too. Boston will hear for the first time this winter—and possibly, Washington also—the Ninth Sym- phony, by Mahler, as well as a Mahler cycle of five songs with orchestra There will be played also a concerto for wind instruments by Spohr, the only existing copy of which has lain in the archives of the Berlin State Opera until last summer, when Rich- ard Strauss commended the work to Koussevitzky, who had the work copied forthwith. From Strauss’ own music Kousse- vitzky has selected a revival of “Don Quixote.” while from Bruckner will come the unfinished Ninth Sym- phony. phony will also cive a performance of Debussy’s incidental music to d’An- nunzio’s “Martyrdom of St. Sebas- tian,” the choral fcrtions of which will be heard in America for the first time Last Friday afternoon Koussevitzky assembled the Boston Symphony for its rehearsal. and the season will cpen next Friday afternoon and Saturday evening, October 11 and 12. In addition to the Boston Symphony Orchestra, Mrs. Wilson-Greene’s Ar- tists’ Course of concerts will include concerts by Horowitz. the pianist; La Argentina, danseuse; Lucrezia_ Bori, soprano, and Gigli the “Met” tenor star.

READS LIKE HISTORY OF THEATRE GUILD PURE ROMANGE HE HISTORY of the Theatre Guild, opening its first subscrip- tion year, is a fascinating chapter in the annals of the Amer- ican stage. , It was in 1915 that the Washington Square Players gave their first public performance, These players were a group of idealistic amateurs. They hoped some day to contribute some- thing worth while to the American stage. Rehearsals were conducted in a room back of a bookshop near Washington Square and from this they took their name. When they felt they were ready to give public performances, thelr modest ambitions compassed nothing more magnificent than an old un- occupled stable which they were able to rent for a song. They trans- formed it into a theater and then the Fire Commissioner stepped in ana stepped on the whole idea. It was’ a body blow. They were down, but scrambling to thelr feet before-the count was out. Uptown the tiny Bandbox Theater was wun- tenanted and the management lis- tened to reason. The. rent was suf- ficlently modest and not even these penniless amateurs were affrighted. They prepared a bill of four. one-act plays, gave their services and charged an admission of 50 cents. Amateur theatricals were rather abundant in New York at the time and taste for them had more than staled, None-the-less, hard-working, hard-ridden and qulte disillusioned members of the pfess critics con- |} sented to sit in on amateur shows. | But they found this group of. ama- iteurs different—decidedly so. Here | Was @ verve, a subtle sense of beauty, a comprehension of value,:a deep ar- tistic understanding which other groups failed to evidence. The public became interested. The venture con- tinued for two fairly successful years: Then came the war. Buskin\ and bells were dropped. The boys wore | olive drab and went overseas and the | girls became immersed in war work | here and abroad. | Early in 1919 {t was all over and 'the boys who had worn olive drab were back in strangely unfamiliar |“togs” and the girls were free of |'their war jobs. Involuntarily, the | group reassembled and the whole big | | Idea was once more taken up. But }ambition had ripened with experi- lence. Not one-act plays now, but full length scripts was the program.:-They incorporated themselves under the name Of The Theatre Guild. They knew that an artistic revolution was af work throughout Europe, where good acting. good playwriting and dis- _tinctive productions and_ settings were supplanting the cheap and taw- dry stuff with which the stage had been encumbered. They launch this artistic revolution. in America. But of course there was that vexatious question “What are we going to usé for money?” The group being substantially the same as the Washington Square Players, they could use that earlier success in financing themselves in the new ‘undertaking. They figured by the strictest economy and astute business Management that they could present two plays with a capl- tal of $2,000. They decided to seek subscriptions of $5 for seats for the two performances. The result was that exactly 135 interested parties in 7 - the City of New York were discovered and the cash capital in hand there- fore was exactly 8675. alin With that amount in the bank, they negotiated the rent for the old Garrick Theater, which nobody “élse wanted to use. They laid hands on a lot of old scenery, which anybody else would have considered fit only for the junk pile. This was skillfully 7e- built and repainted and lo, @ ,pro- duction. 2 ah The first play was “Bond of fn- terest,” by Benevente. It appealed to the guild’s sense of the artistic, but it did not appeal to the public. It was a frightful failure. When,the “run” ended abruptly, the guild had a cash capital of exactly $19.65, But they made good, > eee One day after a session in, which they futilely mulled their problems, and stopped in Brentano's book-store, looking for nothing in particular. On a shelf a book caught his eye. "It was “John. Ferguson,” a play by 6t. John Ervine. Langner remembered that he had casually met Ervine in London and curiosity made h take down the book again to read, was so taken with the thing that he wanted t)) couldn't lay it down—and it was al- |most closing time. The young lass in attendance made it very evident that she would appreciate it if the gentle- man would either buy the book or ,put it back on the shelf. Langner bought the book and next day fe- ported to the guild, “I've found Gur play.” , Every one concurred in his opinion and promptly Langner cabled ine for permission for a guild production of the play at the Garrick Theater. Ervine had never heard of the or the Garrick, and did not remember Langner. He wrote Bernard Shaw asking if he knew anything about it. He also wrote to his agent and his friend, James Bernard Fagan. Nobody could get any information, Shaw ad- vised Ervine not to permit the pfo- duction. without payment of $1,000;in advance royalty—and the guild had less than $20. Fagan advised Ervine |to permit the presentation, since, hé | said, the script was one which could |never be popular anyway. On this | wise advice. Ervine acted and the | guild started preparations for fhe production. The play ran seven months and put the guild on its feet financially. . - Even after that success, obtaining plays was not easy.: Ultintately enough were found to fill a program of five or more plays a season. Not all productions have proved tre- mendous money makers... The mest striking failure was Shaw's “Back to Methusaleh,” which required three consecutive evenings for presentation. “Methuscaleh” wiped out the .profits piled up by “John Ferguson” but. probably full compensation lies in the fact that Shaw has seen fit to-giye the guild first call on all his output.

There has never been a Ger- man translation and the play had never been acted in Germany until Zweig’s version came along. Although Jonson's “Epicoene” was translated in German about 1800, the “Volpone” seems to have been passed over. Herr Zweig, upon the occasion of the play’s first presentation in cen- tral Europe, labeled it “An unchari- table comedy, freely adapted from Ben Jonson.” Nor was this the first Jon- son comedy to meet with retouching in the hands of a later dramatist. In 1725, when “Every Man in His Humor” was revived in London, it was shown that producers might use a little dis- cretion and reduce some of the obso- lete and archaic items of the plays This done, David Garrick took “Every Man in His Humor” and played it-in his repertory for almost 25 years. The famous “Alchemist,” laden with sci- entific and pseudo-scientific terms was condensed in the eighteenth cen- tury, and even “Volpone,” which the guild is presenting as companion in the alternation scheme of repertory to O’Neill’s “Marco Millions,” had specifically at the Covent Garden. in 1771, where it was. presented within the space of two hours and a half, a period generally considered proper for most plays. : According to R. G. Noygs. of Harvard University, who is an expert not only on “Volpone,” but apparently on all the Ben Jonson dramas, the treat- undergone revision at an earlier date. ment which Zwelg has accorded the play has excellent dramatic tages which the original (and t version lacked, namely, compres unity, heightened ~ irony and ~con- formation to the demands 6f #he modern stage with its manifold re- sources. a Jonson,” says Mr. Noyes, “is to plish not a Httle.” .

Not Since before the war have so many ‘ American producers journeyed to the British metropolis not only in search of plays, but for actors, actresses and Girectors as well. “What in the beginning seemed to be a e€vitical year for the American theater because of the desertion from the ranks of a majority of our old standbys may terminate most fortu- rately fof playgoers by the introduc- tion of new ideas and new faces from across the sea.

But the inevi- tability of this alliance, talkles or no talkies, becomes increasingly evident when one begins to count the num- ber of English plays that have come Kere within the last five years.

All parents and teachers are invited to become members of the organization... To at- tract them to the meetings they must be offered well-balanced programs, varied and interesting and at the é6ame time suitable for a Parent- Teacher Association. In its bearing on membership, publicity, activities and genera] interest, the program be- comes the steering gear in the Par- ent-Teacher mechanism. Turned in the right direction, the program leads along the highway to success. Turned in the wrong direction, it leads onto the rocks whefe so many well-mean- Ing associations have met with dis- aster. The program committee should be made up of both parents and teachers, in order that. the point of view of both home and school may be pre- sented to the association. Its person- nel should represent the different types of members, but all should be equipped with vision, common sense, & knowledge of membership, and of the resources of the organization. “Sometimes several subjects. will be considered during the year; some- times only one or two, but. a general plan leading to some definite end gives a worth-wileness to the work which will appeal to even a luke- warm worker. “There are several test questions to ask about a parent-teacher program. If it does not pass these tests it may be regarded as a failure so far as parent-teacher. purposes - are con- cerned: 1. Does it develop in par- ,¢nts and citizens.an appreciation of “the school? 2, Does the program de- yelop cooperation between. the home ‘and the school? 3.

TRUSTS IN IT DISCUSSED Radio broadcasting, which was un- known & decade ago, now threatens to Sait lenbs even the generation-old jssue of tariff in the legislative lralis of the United States Capitol. Not since the heyday of tariff, when Republicans and Democrats consid- ered it a matter of life and death, has popular interest turned so eagerly to oem ry Paha haa radio legislation, proposed. Senator C. C. Dil, ; Republican, of Washington, made the statement before the Radio Com- mission recently that “there is more public interest in radio today than any other issue before Congress be- cause it affects more people.” The biggest fights are being waged over whether or not a “radio trust” exists and whether radio has out- grown the Federal Radio Commission “ should be placed itn the hands of a larger body to be known as a com- munication commission. Minor squab- ble have arisen over the division of the country into zones, the sectional appointment of commissioners, the respective powers of the District of Columbia Court of Appeals and the Radio Commission, and minor mat- ters of procedure to be followed by the commréssion. Davis Amendment Doomed. Present: indications are that the Davis amendment of the radie act of 1927; which provides for equal dis- tribution of radio broadcasting facili- ties among States and zones on a hasis of population, will be repealed or altered, that the life of the Radio Commission, which expires on De- cember 31, will be continued for an- other year until the communications commission can be formed, and that the Senate committee on interstate commerce will make it hot for the alleged “radio trust” at the hearings which will be resumed_soon. The most recent attack on the Davis amendment came from the sponsor of the measure, Senator Dil. Appearing before the Radio Commis- sion recently as voluntary counsel for Station KWSC, Pullman, Wash., the Western senator expressed the be- lief that the amendment is unconsti- tutional and that it “hampers the commission tremendously.” The “whole cleared channel matter is a waste of radio facilities,” he de- clared. “Personally, I do not think it ‘constitutional to say that a great section like the West can have only as many stations as a little area up in New England.” The senator declared he consented to the enactment of the amendment originally because he was “compelled” by public sentiment, which “forced the Senate to accept it.” The KWSC hearing was indicative of the legislative interest in radio matters in that there were three other senators and two representatives who }- appeared before the commission. Senator Jones, of Washington, and Senator Thomas, of Idaho, also made pleas that the State College of Wash- ingtom station be granted increased power. while Senator Wagner, of New York, appeared on behalf of Sta- tion WLWL, of New York. Represen- ‘tative §. B. Hill, of Waterville, Wash., and B. L. French, of Moscow, Idaho,: also sponsored the application of the Western station. Bees Commission Extended. Extension of the life of the Radio Commission until such time as there will be a commission on communica- tions, or a similar Federal body, wil) be the main feature of probable radio legislation in Congress this fall, ac- cording to Representative Wallace H. White, jr.. of Maine, chairman of the House committee on merchant ma- rine and fisheries. He recently at- tended an international convention While expressing the belief that there wil] ultimately be a body which will have jurisdiction over telegraph, telephone and cable lines, as well as radio facilities, Representative White said there is no prospect of the pas- sage of such legislation at the pres- ent.session of Congress. . “IT believe that Congress will extend the life of the Radio Commission at the. present. session,” he said. . Referring to the need of abolishing the limitation on the President in the appointment of members of the Radio Commission, the Maine repre- sentative said: “I see no reason any longer to restrict the “selection of, memibers of the commission to any ‘particular group of States. The of geographical. needs. with réspect to radio has been miet and ther@é is no need of geographic distri- bution of members. A removal of restFictions will tend toward selec- tion of the best available .men for such a body.” Schuette Pushes “Trust Fight.” Béhind the legislative fight. against the so-called “radio trust,” which is led by Senators Dill and James Couzens, of Michigan, author of the bill for the creation of the com-- rAunications body, is the Radio Pro- tective Association, a group of inde- pendent manufacturers, of which Os- wald F. Schuette, executive secretary, is the moving force. He it has been who has supplied the senators with most of their data about the alleged $5,000,000,000 combination. His acti- vities have even been carried to the White House and the office of the Attorney General. At a meeting of the association in New York recently, Mr. Schuette told the members that any effort to re- peal ‘the antitrust provisions of the radie act, sections 13 and 17, in the present Congress will fail. His pre- diction, he said, was based on re- sponses to letters sent to every mem- ber of the House and the Senate. “The campaign ‘which has been carried on against the Radio Corpora- tion and associated compar‘es during the last two years by the independ- ent industry has had this striking re- sult," he said. “I believe that the antitrust provisions of the radio act are as firmly fixed on the statute books as the Volstead law. Congress will not tolerate any.effort to weaken these provisions.” Lawyers Stir Up Row. The standing committee on radio laws of the American Bar Association “and ~Bethuel -M. Webster, -general counsel of the Radio Commission, fanned the smoldering feeling on the antimonopoly provisions of the radio act to a e when they announced their respective beliefs that the pro- visions were unnecessary. The’ bar report even went s0 far as to suggest that it might be a good, idea to per- “ymit the consolidation of wire and radio in this country so that Ameri- can communication companies will not be outdistanced by the British,, uwho have already permitted such | OFF THE ANTENNA By.

With the Chicago Civic Opera Company going into its palatial new building this winter, the first opera: house to include a broadcasting station in its equipment, the prediction {s made that it wili be only a question of time until the Metropolitan yields as well. Long credited with being one of the world’s finest, doubt was |. expressed as to whether the Philadelphia Orchestra would ever be heard over the radio. At least not while it was under the baton of Leopold Stokowski who was said to have expressed the same fear as Fritz Kreisler that radio in {ts present stage of development might not faithfully reproduce his artistry to the invisible audience. Kreisler has never been heard over the air, another being Padertew- ski, who has never played In this country but did so once in England. An additional reason has been advanced in the case of Kreisler that he fears he might not overcome the terror which microphone fright holds for him. ¥ o .- * The appearance of Miss Hazel Arth in the Atwater-Kent program tonight, two years after she won in the Atwater-Kent contest, is abundant proof that Mr. Kent is thoroughly carrying through his plan not only of bringing undiscovered talent to the public but of giving continued encouragement to artists who otherwise would not have had the chance. The opportunity afforded Miss Arth brings home to Washingtonians the realization of the good Mr. Kent is doing for the development of musical ability. Also it is a reminder that two Washington singers, a boy and a girl, will be chosen here the lattér part of this month by the Atwater Kent Foundation: The semifinals, as usual, will be sung in New York next month when $25,00@in prizes will be awarded. * a 7 . The broadcasting of ‘‘Trombonia’’ recently brought to mind a story told by Roy S. Dursting who puts advertising to music, regarding the first time Arthur Pryor, the bandmaster who was also for years the world’s champion trombonist, ever played for Sousa. The trombone player was then only 18 years old and unknown. Sousa, as a try-out in rehearsal, gave him a very difficult passage to play. Pryor, however, to the amazement of those present, played it not only brilliantly but without a single mistake. Whereupon the bandsmen applauded him, but poor Pryor mistaking this for a spoof- ing, or ridicule, packed up his instrument and walked away. It was several days before Sousa could find the discouraged musician and get him back again. . s * ° Gossipers in the Capital are wondering whether or not Maj. Gen: James G. Harbord, president of the Radio Corporation of America, had the Federal Radio Commission in mind in his attack on ‘“‘bureau- cratsa’’ in a recent article. Though the article makes no mention of radio or the Radio Com- mission in so many words, there are some references which might be construed as subtle jibes at one or two of the commissioners at least. Explaining that there are more than 100 of such bureaus in gov- ernmental departments now, Gen. Harbord divided the bureaucrats into two classes—the unimportant fellow with little responsibility and the appointee who, having riser “from comparitive obscurity, finds himself thrust into a position where he has dictatorial and au- thoritative control over large enterprises.” “Frequently the bureaucrat comes from a small town where he has gained some local fame as a lawyer or a politician. An appointment in Washington endows him with prestige and a certain social and political standing which he could not acquire through a business ca- reer. The salary is generally the best he has ever drawn.” Passing quickly over the unimportant bureaucrat, Gen. Harbord says: “The important bureaucrat, however, plays a larger role in the Washington scene and more meddlesome part in the business affairs of the Nation. His particular glory is the hearing. He summons the heads of important businesses; his attorneys delve and dive into books, papers and records. The bureaucrat and his legal staff go adventuring into agreements, contracts, mergers, financing agree- ments, and trade practices, generally with the assumption that the witness and the industry which he represents have been guilty of some nefarious and reprehensible business practice.” This latter portion, it-is pointed out, also sounds very much like a jibe at the Senate’s communications inquiry. * e * * While a group of-radio people in New York were discussing Gen. Harbord’s article, the title of which was “Why Respect for Govern- ment Fails,’”’ there was an unusual honking and sputtering of motor cycles outside and some one asked, “What's the excitement?” answer was, “It’s the special police escort provided for Clayt, Irwin!” This referred to G. Clayton Irwin, jr., manager of the New York and Chicago radio shows, who is provided with a police estort in each of these cities during that period. “Now that is just the sort of petty special privilege that we see on every hand these days which weakens our respect for city and Federal government. Clayt Irwin is'a good fellow, but what earthly right has he got, simply because he has enough political pull to get it, to-be chasing around town with a police escort? Just what is there in the way of prominence of those in the radio or any other industry to deserve this special attention; and just what excuse is there for our people, who have time to burn at these conventions, to interfere “with traffic-and-tear-along-at.50 miles an hour under a police escort every time they go any place? | “It's simply a publicity stunt‘and one which does not react favor- ably with the people who are inconvenienced. As we went furiously along the crowded street, I saw a number of persons show distinct signs of resentment.” + * . e Also there is the danger to life and property caused by these use- less flying expeditions, As one of the group of newspaper men, a Washington correspondent, went speeding along Michigan avenue against red lights and in violation of all traffic rules, under police escort, provided no doubt with’the best intention by Mr. Irwin during the radio show In Chicago last spring, the Washingtonian nervously recalled the fate of his old colleagues Ben Alen, of the Cleveland Plain Dealer; Sumner Curtis, formerly of the Chicago Record Herald, and Tom Dawson, of the Associated Press. All three Jost their lives in automobile smashups on official Junkets as a result of unnecessary speed. The former was traveling with President Wilson along the Colum- bia highway in Portland, Oreg., and the latter with President Hard- ing at Denver, To this day, Stanley M. Reynolds, of the Baltimore Sun, who was in the former smash, and Don Craig, of the New York Herald, in the latter, bear evidence of the accidents, Which brings up the question as to whether, in many cases, the passage through the city streets at such terrific speed is necessary even in the case of the President of the United States. President Hoover doesn’t think go, for it is understood that one of the first things he did was to order the White House chauffeurs not+— to go against the red traffic urns ” . Almost too fantastic to be iehes seriously is the fact that one of Evidently | the big watch companies is endeavoring to devise a means of setting watches by radio while they are in the owners’ pockets. 4 mergers. They also condemned the Davis amendment. The Couzens bill, which is now the major radio measure under consid- eration, would even go farther than ant all control of communications a Federal body; it would abolish the Federal Water Power Commission and place its power also in the hands of the five members, named by the President, which would constitute the “commission on communications and power.” The reason for the unifica- tion of these two powers is based on the growing interdependence of power and communication companies. The Federal Radio Commission was created by the Sixty-ninth Congress in the radio act approved on Febru- ary 23, 1927. Under the terms of the act, the appointment of five members was authorized and not more than one of these could be appointed from any of the five zones into which the country and its possessions are di- vided. The first missioners were to be named for two, three, four, five and six years, respectively, but their successors were to be appointed for terms of six years, except in the fill- i of vacancies. e life of the commission was con- tinued in’ March, 1928, and the same month in 1929.

THE LISTENER’S VIEWPOINT Declares Bowes Is the Limit. To the Radio Editor of The Post— Bir: The “ovation” to Maj. Bowes (referred to as “Our Well Beloved Father,”) upon his return from San Francisco last night was sickening, @e was Maj. Bowes himself. Any man who has the orchestra play sob music as he recites sappy poetry, as does Bowes, can not help but be sickening. This Bowes person is the _—s « L. B. Washington, D. C. Good Word For Miss Drake. To the Radio Editor of The Post— Sir: Last spring you printed in your Sunday column a letter from a reader which contained a’ comment about the voice of Miss Alice Hutchins Drake, which not only her friends, but. those who did not know her per- sonally, but who have listened to her for years on the radio felt was to- tally unjustified. All the radio pub- lic aecustomed to cultured voices in everyday life appreciate Miss Drake's unusually.beautiful voice and enun- ciation. I inclose an article by Andrew R. Kelley, which reads “that Alice Hutch- ings Drake, who talks for WRC on ‘Fa- mous Paintings in Many Lands,’ has a voice that any movie star would envy.” I am 6ure you would wish to be ‘fair to Miss Drake and give this re- print from Andrew Kelley's notice the same aap Sn that you gave the other letter last spring. . MARIS Gets After Gypsies. To the Radio Editor of The Post— Sir: .My old friends, the A. & P. Gypsies, don’t seem to be leadifig the procession as they used ft. Their programs are becoming commonplace, the orchestra pieying hackneyed se- lections in a listless sort of way and their quartet and singers have been poor of late. —s the summer sea- son has been to blame, but what- ever the reason, let’s hope they take a brace. H. M. K. Gibbons Interesting. To the Radio Editor of The Post— Sir: How did it happen that Floyd Gibbons wandered about so long without being signed by a broadcast- ing company? His talks are about the most interesting I have ever lis- tened in on, no matter what his subject is. F. E. B. WITH THE INDUSTRY Tone Quality Real Test. The old adage, “The proof of the pudding is in the eating,” can most aptly be amended to “The proof of radio is in the hearing,” according to Mr. York Averill, buyer for W. B. Moses & Sons radio department, “for today America’s radio public is tone conscious.” “After all,” continued Mr. Averill, “the real test of a radio receiver is in its tone quality, for most every make of radio now possesses sensi- tivity and. selectivity sufficient to meet the average requirement. Radio without perfect tone is no better than an old phonograph with a worn- out needie—unnatural. Since the arrival of screen grid circuits, how- ever, tone quality has reached a higher State of perfection than has ever before been attained through the use of other circuits. Zenith in- vites comparison, not only in tone, performance and beauty, but in dol- jJar-for-dollar value, particularly evi- denced in the new “Fifteenth Anni- versary” models. _ Radio Proving Station, The latest “wrinkle” in the radio industry is the proving station. Just as the armory and ammunition used by battleships of the United States) Thei¢ Navy are tested at the Navy proving ground, g0 are experiments performed upon many receiving sets at the radio proving stations to demonstrate their actual performance under a_ wide variety of conditions. One of the first radio pioneers to erect a proving station was Powel Crosley, jr., president of the Crosley Radio Corporation, of Cincinnati. He built it on his farm about 6 miles from the Crosley factory. Mr. McMichael, of the Doubleday- Hill Electric Co.,. local Crosley dis- tributor,. visited Cincinnati recently. Estey With United Reproducers, Appointment of F. Clifford Estey, well-known radio sales and advertis- ing executive, to the post of assistant to A. R. Hill, president of United Re- producers Corporation, radio manu- facturers at Springfield. wate, has been announced. On July 1 last Mr. Estey terminated a two-year connection with the Cros- ley Radio Corporation. where he was assistant to the president. For the past few months Mr. Estey has served as radio counsel] for the Geyer Co., Dayton, Ohio, advertising agency, which sponsors United Reproducers’ lines of Kylectron-equipped Peerless and Courier radios. /RADIO PROGRAMS SUNDAY, OCTOBER 6.

TERS ntic City—1,100 ee = — NE of the principal musical events of this radio season will -oecur when Leopold Stokowski signals the “Symphony Orchestra to begin the first of a special series of three broadcasts over a coast-to-coast National Broadcasting Com- pany network, including WRC, at 5:30 o’clock this afternoon. The Philadelphia Symphony Orchestra first answered the dictates of Stokowski’s baton in 1912. The rise to fame by conductor and orchestra has been notable until now each holds a secure place at || the top rank of their field. The influence of the organ will be detected in the initial selection of the first program, the conductor's own transcription of Bach’s “Wir Glauben all’ einen Gott’? (We All Believe in One God), a choral] prelude which represents some of the greatest movements of inspiration in the life of Bach. Stokowski has been so successful in maintaining the color of the organ that the radio listener, unable to see the actual performance of the selection, may easily be per- suaded that some new type of organ is playing, rather than an orchestra. i The second offering is Mozart’s Symphony in G Minor. It is one of the. trio that the composer wrote in the summer of 1788, when he produced his three last symphonies. The final composition will be Wagner's well-known overture to “‘Tannhauser,”’ in the Paris version, written while the author was exiled in France. . The orchestra will play in the Academy of Music, Philadelphia. Henry M. Neely will announce the presentation. Two young American singers, one a Washington girl, the other a young boy from the Pacific Coast, winners of last year’s Atwater Kent Foundation award, will be featured in the Atwater Kent Hour at 9:15 o’clock through WRC. The selections of Miss Hazel Arth, contralto, and Mr. Ted Roy, barytone, are included in the following | program: “Punch and Judy,” Herbert, and “‘Habanera,’’ Mezzocapo, orches- tra; “‘Serenade,’”’. Schubert, and ‘“‘Hills of Home,’”’ Fox, Mr. Roy; ‘Prelude in G Minor,’ Rachmaninoff, orchestra; ‘“‘Maids of Cadiz,” Delibes, and “Little Winding Road,’’ Ronald, Miss Arth; “O That We Two Were Maying,” Nevin, duet by Miss Arth and Mr. Roy, and finale from ‘‘Farewell Symphony,” Haydn. Sophie Braslau, the American contralto, will be the guest artist at the Baldwin from WJZ at 6:30 o’clock. The Rev. H. H. Franck, pastor, will preach the sermon in the service to be broadcast from Grace Reformed Church at 11 o’clock this morning by WRC, The service from Washington Cathedral will be presented at 4 o’clock by WRC. The broadcasting of services from the Tenth Pres- byterian Church of Philadelphia will be resumed at 5:30 o’clock ‘by WMAL: A program of native music will be presented by the South Sea Islanders, a string orchestra directed by Joseph Rodgers, tenor, from WRC at 11:15 o’clock. ‘These selections include “Kohala Marsh,” “Palolo,”’ ‘‘Mani Girl,” ‘‘Maunakea Sacred Song,” “Kawaihau March” and “‘Aloha Qe.’’ The Armchair Quartet—Milton J. Cross and Maurice Tyler, tenors; Walter Preston, barytone,. and Marley R. Sherris, bass, will sing “Swingin’ Vine,’’ “Moonlight Bay,” “Sweet and Low” and “Pale in the Amber West.” : ‘Ring Lardner, sports: writer and-humorist, has written a radio comedy act with a background of a world series baseball game for the Majestic Theater of the Afr, to be broadcast at 9 o’clock tonight. The musical background will be furnished by the Arnold Johnson Orchestra, with Lee Morse, Redferne Hollinshead and Wendell Hall |,, as soloists. Eli Spivak, barytone, will be heard in a folk song of his: native Russia, “Forgotten Caresses,” by those of the radio audience who gather around the Samovar from -WMAL at 10:30 o’clock. Mr. Spivak will also sing ‘““Among the Steepes and Forests.” Norman Brokenshire, who was unable to do the recitation ‘‘The Hawaiian” during the Coral Islanders program last Sunday evening, because of laryngitis, will be heard tonight. Seven Hawalian selec- tions have been made for this half hour, at 11 o’clock. Thirty mixed voices with organ accompaniment by Ann Leaf will be heard in ‘‘Choral Reveries” from WMAL at 11:30 o’eclock.

(To Be Continued Tomorrow.) i i AUCTION BR IDGE HE above deal is noteworthy be- cause it is one of the compara- tively few in which the Auction bidding is more complicated than the Contract bidding. At Contract South would bid two Hearts and West would bid three Clubs, not daring to double for fear that East’s answer would be’ -three--Diamonds.-which..West* would have to take out by bidding four Clubs, from West’s viewpoint a most dangerous declaration. North’s bid of three Hearts would induce South to bid four, which would end the con- tracting. At Auction, South would bid one Heart and West would double hoping that East may have four Spades and the double may produce a Spade game which could not be reached if West simply bid the Club suit. North, with ample help for South’s Heart, would pass and await developments. East would bid two Clubs, glad to have @ four-card suit other than the one named by South. On the second round, South might be ‘in some doubt between passing and bidding two Diamonds. West's double suggests Diamond strength and makes two Diamonds (which would have been South’s obvious bid had’ West not doubled) a trifle dan- é gerous; but South is so strong that reached with the suit (Hearts or Dia- monds) that fits North’s hand the better, so the Diamond bid is worth the risk it entails, West has ample strength to justify a bid of three Clubs despite the fact that East’s Club bid was forced by @n informa double. North wo then be in doubt whether to assist partner's Hearts or Diamonds, but the Heart being the major suit, North would deem it ad- visable to name that first, so North would bid three Hearts. East would pass gladly and South, of course, would pass. West would now be placed in an awkward position. He would reason that East probably has nothing except for Clubs, but South's Diamond bid makes West’s King a probable winner, so his hand contains a total of only five losers and the combined East and West hands seem to be worth one more. bid; conse- quently West would call four Clubs. North now has-an opportunity that he has been desiring, namely, to bid four Diamonds, thus showing his part- ner assistance for both suits and put- ting the choice up to South. East passes and South bids four Hearts, preferring to try for ten tricks in the major rather than eleven in the minor. In most hands his selection would prove to be the wise one, but 28 it happens in this case, game could be won in either contract and five Dia- monds would be simpler to make than four Hearts. THE PLAY. In the play West would lead the King and Queen of Clubs. North would follow suit to both tricks and East would show a desire to have Clubs continued by playing first the Nine and then the Eight, the Trey be- ing retained to avoid any danger of blocking West’s suit. South following suit to the first Club would trump the second with the Four of Hearts, and to’trick 3 should lead a small satisfactory results are ept to Heart, winning with dummy’s ioe The important play in the hand as occurs Declarer wishes to take the mond finesse but, of course, can ne it until after the trumps n exhausted.

It is being thought of quite often and, in some quarters, quite radically. It-is recognized that there are a num- ber of things that can be make gna plants better. will be done just as quickly as pos- sible is taken for granted among those who Know. Would the car owner who thinks of | automobiles in the sense of perform- amce be surprised were to be still further increased? Then he may be surprised. There are | some who believe that engine speeds alreddy are too high in some cases. fe highest stock car engine speed is 600 r. p. m. But race car engines L at 7,000 r. p. m. and do it with a Deautiful, enduring smoothness that surprises the skeptic regarding higher stack car engine speeds. In Italy an automobile engine that turns 11,000 revolutions per minute has been made. Antifriction Bearings. That automobile engines equipped With ball or roller antifriction ings on crankshaft and camshaft may eventually arrive is another thought | im the circle where engines are de- signed. Antifriction bearings are so used in aircraft engines. Why not in those that power automobiles? One reason, of course, is that they cost considerably more money. But higher priced cars, at least, could « afford them, some believe. There are those who would not be surprised to see the two-cycle engine used in automobiles. This type of engine is lighter than | the current design. It has several rec- ognizable difficulties. One of these is getting fuel into the combustion chamber. The supercharger may over- come that. Aviation has helped con- centrate interest on this type of pow- @ plant again. It may even result in its eventual perfection for motor car use. One such engine already in existence will run as slowly as 100 r. p. m.' with perfect smoothness. Equal smoothness in the other end of the speed range may be assured before it is expected. “Cold carburetion” is a phrase that | motor car owners may have heard somewhere. Just what it means, however, a great many have no idea. Yet some day it may be the means of adding considerably to the per- formance of their automobile engines. Present carburetion provides the combustion chamber with a mixture of gasoline vapor and hot aftr. fuel charge is at a considerable tem- perature. That means it is expanded. If the air with which the gasoline’ was mixed were cold, it would be contracted, relatively. That would mean that the fuel charge would be more concentrated. The more con- centrated it is, the more powerful it is, Hence the experiments with cold earburetion. Many not directly connected with motor car manufacture but occupy- ing the role of consulting engineers It may | done to} That they if engine speeds | bear- | much-talked-of The | , think the promise of cold carburetion 'is too bright to be overlooked much longer by .,the industry. Antifrietion béarings in such fea- tures as fan, generafor, water pump ‘and the like as a m s of increasing the performance of engines are re- garded as a distinct possibility of the |near .future. The car owner seldom ever thinks of these accessories as | having anything to do with the con- isumption of the engine’s power. He would be amazed if he could see just |'what pr@éportion of the power his @ar's engine develops is consumed in |running the fan, generator, and other accessories. In some cars, at high | speeds, the fan makes a very serious ‘draft on the power output. Some /have even proposed, as a remedy, ithat the fan be so arranged that it be cut out at high speeds. It is not particularly needed for cooling, they 'say, and it uses up too much engine power. Reduction of friction losses by the use of antifriction bearings in these _accessories is another proposal based upon the same _ corMition. Still others foresee considerable gains by virtue of lightening the various parts the enginé must drive in addition to driving the car itself. Back around 1910 a patent was issued on a mechanism the principle of which may contribute importantly to engines of the near future. That mechanism was a hydraulic push rod for lifting the valves of automobile engines. It was fairly crude and failed to fit conditions. But the principle, if not the mechanism, was sound, many have admitted all along. Adaptation of thé principle, which in- volves the use of qa cushion of heavy | liquid at the base of the push rod to impart lift to it, is being vigorously urged in some quarters today. Two reasons are behind its advocacy. First, it provides a means of opening valves to a greater degree, thus admitting more fuel to the combustion cham- ber at high speeds and, second, it helps toward a solution of valve nolge. Problem Grows in Difficulty. The latter problem, lack of silence, | grows more difficult in direct propor- tion to the speed of the valve mech- | anism, and it is quite speedy in many of today’s engines. “Dual” this, that and the other thing may become still more common in the vocabulary tha* describes the motor car engine which now Is on the way, in the opinion of many authori- ties. At present more and more cars are employing dual carburetion, dual manifolding and dual ignition of one kind or another. More may adopt the same thing. It would not be surpris- ing to see dual valve systems and |dual spark plugs—espetially in en- | gines of large cylinder bore. | Invariably when one goes in quest | | of information relating to future mo- tor car engines one runs into the subject of superchargers. They have | been predicted for passenger car use for ten years now, but no stock car employs such a device. However, the supercharger, according to its peren- nlal advocates, is being developed rap- idiy in connection with aviation en- gines and small, high-speed race car engines. Its capacity to deliver'a s0- lution to the question of fuel induc- tion is unquestioned, but there is a question of how well the super- charger itself will stand up. Recapitulating the various Improve- ments being considered in connection with the automobile engine indicates that its designers still believe it far from perfection.

EXPERTS SEEK FRICTION LOS CURB Study Designed to Find Remedy for Waste. MILLIONS ANNUAL TOLL Friction, the avenue down which the motor car owner sees millions of dollars vanish annually in the form of wasted gasoline, now has: become one of the most broad and intensive subjects of consideration by § scien- tists of the United States Bureau of Standards. Broadly speaking, the new program for the study of friction losses is a development of the survey looking to the elimination of waste undertaken several years ago by the Department of Commerce, of which the Bureau of Standards is the tech- nological branch. Heretofore, however, it is pointed out that. the waste elimination prog- ress has concerned itself with ma- terial substances—such as _ lumber, metal, paper and a host of others. In venturing into the realm of fric- tion losses, Government scientists will deal with a factor that lacks genuine visible substance. Energy, heat that could be converted into -useful work, is the substance that is lost through friction. Just what quantity is lost has not determined. It has been assumed in many quarters that from 5 to 10 per cent of the energy in- cars is exhausted by friction. While this is not by any means s0 great as that which escapes through the ex- haust pipe, in the form of useless or unysed heat, it is sufficient to jus- tify research designed to reduce the waste which, itn the case of 25,000,000 automotive vehicles, aggregates a vast sum annually. While the work looking toward re- duced friction losses will be done by the Bureau of Standards, it will be sponsored by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. The new study, of course, fits ideally into the bureau's present research in the field of lubri- cants and bearing materials. In addi- tion to friction losses in automotive Cold Rivers to the | equipment, the study will include those in steam, electrical and marine equipment, and in machine tools used (in various industries, including the 'Manufacture of automobiles. It is the sense of government sci- entists.that. wastage of power due to friction can be significantly reduced through the scientific selection and development of lubricants, and in this connection, it is pointed out that these: need not be limited to petro- leum olls. It is felt further that a /more precise determination of correct operating conditions for various types of ‘power developing machinery will lead to progress in the same direction A connection between the new re- search program and the recent agita- tion for some new, scientific light on lubrication and lubricants generally is seen in many quarters. It is re- called that, following recent attacks upon the common specifications for lubricants, it was pointed out that many government departments buy- ing olls for various types of automo- tive equipment were using “service iests” rather than specifications to de- termine the merits: of various prod- , ucts.

Terrors of “Blind Flying”? Seen as Becoming Tamed. French Rea S Théory on Instrument Aviation . - = And Prove It in Actual Experience; Students Lose Battle When Relying on Senses. By FRANK J,.CARMODY. There is something romantic. and awe-inspiring about “blind flying,” in which an. airplane: pilot, absolutely without vision due-to darkness, fog, or cloud, dashes through space. at a rate of 100 or.more miles an hour de- pending for guidance and safety on his instruments alone. But that there. always will be something- ro- mantic and awe-inepiring about it some are disposed to question. When the change takes place, as it does, it will not be due simply to the fact that there is 80 much blind fly- ing. That, say the prophets, would be a quantitative change. It will be qualitative; they predict. Over in France, for instance. there is an experiment now being conducted in teaching pilots to fly by instru- ment,alone that is especiaily inter- esting to Americans who have had a chance to observe it. This, too, in spite of the fact that France is the only country which holds to the whirling chair as an equilibrium test for fliers, and despite the further fact that American tourists abroad . fre- quently hear: . “Oh, yes, the British and Germans are great fliers—always safe; sane and progressive. But, the French——.” The sentence is usually finished with @ rolling of the eyes: and a shake of the head that may mean anything. Better Than Vision Itself. Many ofthe French have a prr:pec- _tive on blind flying that coud be called any. hin’. but reactionary. . It | is. based upon the success they have secn attending the experiment to teach many ccmmerclal pilots that, perhaps, after all, there is a substi- tute for vision that may be better than vision itself.

For the one who ueltenes Or maybe 10,000, who are decide: skeptical. The average man is f liar with the stories of pilots who have declared that they could OF tell when visibility was wiped out whether they were flying upsidé down or right side up. And, no One of such stories. That they need to be true, how. ever, is regarded in the Parmkt Schoo] as something quite different, It is insisted by instructors at the institution that they can take a ptlo who is firmly convinced that he ca not “feel” his plane’s motions «by instrument and within a very few hours, at the most, show him where he is entirely wrong.

Chassis Grease Cups Exact Lubrication In spite of the modernimation of chassis lubrigation systems general! the rear wheel ‘which do a lot of hard work, still are greased through old-fashioned grease cups in @ great many cases.

This advice is given to motorisis by Rudolph Jose, veteran local automo- bile dealer, who urges upon all own- Ts at this time the value of putting he car into’ the hands of a capable maintenance department with in- ctlons .to go over it thoroughly. tightening where necessary, replacing parts where needed, and the like. It is pointed out by Mr. Jose that irtually all cars will need such at- ention after an active summer of ouring, and that whether the car has or has not been taken on 4 long jour- mey this year the forthcoming rigors of winter are bound to make unusual demands which can only be met y and eeneiently by an autom?- y antion st this time, he says, will be ound -by owners to pay impressive dividends later.

Wallace, be- lieves will be a period .of unprecedent- ed constructive activity. That the coming months wil] be busy ones for the association is cer- tain, on the basis of the projects which Mr. Wallace sees the body en- gaging in during the year 1929-30. Discussing the association’s program that this year an even greater effort than ever will be made to insure the bédy’s high value to the individual mem ber. Maintains an Office. Mr. Wallace stated that throughout the last summer the association has maintained an office which bas served as a clearing hoyse for information and assistance for members, and’ he take steps to broaden the scope of ance. It is the association’s hope,. Mr. | Wallace said, to be able to build up new sources of helpfulness to the méembérahip through’ the office, and ways and means of accomplishing this end will be an order of bysiness for yesterday, ‘Mr.~ Wallace pointed~ out; indicated that the agsociation will. proved of invaluable practical assist-. forthcoming meetings. The used-car problem as a whole, of course, wiil be discussed thoroughly. With ‘the ‘e-| port now actually serving its purpose in putting that phase of the automo- bile trade on a more sound business basis, the association will not be ton- tent merely to discuss the used-car problem, but will continue to take actual forward steps in adjusting it with equity all around. The W. A. T. A. will leave no stone unturned in making its automobile show this year the most representa- tive ever held in the National Capi- tal, Mr. Wallace said. Pointing out that the automobile shows which aré held here each year under the aus- pices of the association have proved of the most tremendous pyblic inter- est, Mr. Wallace added that commit- tees this year probably will: start to work very e@arly to bring a new degree of magnitude and value to the exhibition. Activity in connection with the show is expected to receive mych of the association’s attention for the next few months. In addition. to devoting: itself: to the more vigorous prosecution of matters of continuing interest within the association, the W. A. T. A. naturally will be called upon to face j; problems which wil! arise from time to fife during the year, Mr; Walface said. These will receive the prompt and public-spirited attention of the | association, he pointed out. Service Is Great Aim. “The Washington Aytomotive Trade Association enters this new season with 4 firm desire to be of increasing service to its members-and to the public,” Mr. Wallace asserted... “I feel that the association has many such opportunities, and that it will not fail to make the most of them The Car—a Dialogue. “YT notice,” I said to Bob, who had been using the car for a few days, “that you are a slovenly motorist.’ “No doubt of it,” he pleaded guilty, “but what specific thing calls .1¢ to your attention so sharply?” “The spare tire, for oné thing. It is flat.” Gas : “YT know it. It ought to be flat. At was punctured yesterday morning. If it was not flat, it would be a miracle.” “Not a miracie,” I retorted. “Merely a that you had had it fixed im- mediately. But, of course, if you had that would be a mifacle. What if you had another puncture on the way to the officé this morning? Then you'd be sorry, young man, that you are stich a islovenly, careless car owner. Wouldn't you?” “I can tell you better when and if I have the puncture,” Bob smiled blithely as he drove. away. “That night when he came home, the spare had been fixed. “Well,” he remarked, “I'm no longer a motorist. Furthermore, ] did not have a puncture. I don’t know what that makes you, but if I were in your place. it would make me (ne TE tne at least.” “But you still are a slovenly mo- torist,” I remarked calmly. “One thing that proves it is that the jack, lug wrench and — which you used to change the tire yesterday still are lying on the floor of the car. You know as well 38 any one that that is @ mark of slovenliness.” “This begins to look like a chal- lenge to my fine sense of orderli- a few minutes and I'll answer the challenge with an exhibition of doing the right thing that will leave you gasping for breath. You'll regret all these harsh, unkind words, young lady, when I make you eat them. Slovenly motorist, am I?” With this remark he got out of the car, opened the tool kit, picked up the jack, lug wrench and pliers. Put- ting them in their proper places, he closed the kit neatly and put it in its place behind the rear seat. He then picked up a brush we keep in the car and swept the spot where the tools had been lying. “Afe you all ready to do some high- class eating?” he turned to me with a@ triumphant look. - “Not yet,” I replied. “Why don’t you drive the car into the garage in- stead of leaving it here. We won't be using it tonight and if you do not put it away now you will have to come out later—or forget it until tomorrow morning, which is more likely.” . Bob shook his head sadly. But he got in the car and drove it into the garage. I watched him. As he returned to the place where I was standing he ‘looked rather like pei must have when he conquered aul. “Now,” he remarked, “if there is anything else I can do to disprove this allegation of slovenliness, you SMITH AUTO LAUNDRY Autos polished (best crade) Aute oiled and creased $1.00 : Motor Co., metropolitan deal- ‘for Chrysier and Plymouth.

I’ve observed over a long period that, because the differential! doesn’t actually need checkin’ more than every 1,500 miles or so, owners like to ignore it altogether. . Now, the answer to. that is that gears and bearin’s called upon to do the amount of work .of those in the differential simply can’t keep goin’ on the stingy diet that’s givén ‘em.

Whether the book specifies it or not, the best schedule of differential care—and transmission, too, for that matter—is not which calls for a check of them every time the car is lubricated. That ought to be once a month at least, whether the car is driven much or little.

PEEDY AIR EXPRESS | '5)845,000 Pounds Handled dnU. S. During Last ' Three Years. WRTICLES OF “ALL KINDS During the last three years 5,845,- pounds of air express were car- _Tied in the United States, and in- es reaching the Department of ommerce indicate that hundreds of American. business men now are com- mencing to avail themselves of this | new, high-speed service. This is pointed out by Harry Blee, ‘chief of the division of airports and eeronautics information, of the De- partment of Commerce, who points out that “through the. use of air €xpress, merchants in cities removed from the style centers have been able *% offer the latest style creations days in advance of their competitors.” ‘In addition to style merchandise, Many other commodities are. being ‘shipped by air, including machinery © @nd machine parts, dies, builders’ ‘Nardware, fruits, vegetables, cut flow- ‘ets, dry goods, newspapers, jewelry, advertising cuts and mats, currency ‘@hd bullion, motion picture - films, ‘plans and specifications for building ‘projects and numerous other items of @ perishable or valuable nature, ac- cording to Mr. Blee. Although general ‘traffic of almost @mpy type can be sent by air express, “Mr. Blee pointed out that present shipments are usually limited to those with a value not exceeding $5,000, in- ciuding money and securities. Single Pieces may be shipped which do not weigh over 200 pounds; perishables ‘when properly packed and of a char- acter to cause no damage to other shipments, and scores of miscella- “neous types of merchandise, when packed, marked and labeled according to express regulations. Transport planes operating in the United States are now flying approxi- mately 75,000 miles a day, or the equivalent of 90etrips around the world every month, while during the first six months of the present year 45 transport companies flew planes of various types a total of 8,000,000 miles, an increase over the corre- sponding perlod of 1928 of 300 per cent, according to Commerce Depart- ment records. Inasmuch as 33 of these air trans- port companies are equipped to han- dle express, Mr. Blee said that it is evident that the foundation is already well laid for an organized Nation- wide air express service. Blanket Policies Issued ; For Students Training Student pilots as many leading fly- ing schools now are covered by blan- ket accident and life policies issued by the larger insurance companies, it is pointed out in contrast to the atti- tude taken by insurance companies . & year or two ago in refusing policies to student filers. #limination of obsolete equipment and ingistence upon safety standards has remeved student training from the category of hazards avoided by in- surance companies, First Eastern Radio Beacon Passes Tests | The first radio direction beacon on the Eastern seaboarl of the United States has passed the final tests at Mitchel Field, Long Island, It has a radius of 400 miles by day and 1,500 miles By night.

Once settled in his place, the student then is required to correct the ‘“‘plane’s at- titude” as it ts fixed by the instru- ments which are being operated by the instructor. He learns this with considerable dispatch in most cases, but the min- ute his newly acquired knowledge is put to a practical test In an actual plane it ils almost certain to be en- tirely forgotten.° blind flight lesson is taken is en- tirely darkened save for-n spot of light above the head-rest. This ight, of course, is ‘dead’ tnsofar as helping the pilot see his surround- | >ings is concerned: It does provide a light for the instrument panel, how- | ever. The closed. From it, instructor’s.. cockpit is watching his instruments, is required te correct. From the very start, it is a battle between the senses and the instruments. The latter may tell the student that the plane is flying nor- mally. Lacking vision,’ by which he: previously has flown, the pllot’s senses tell him emphatically that the in- struments are lying. He does not know what to do, ment of the instructor. Instruments Right, Feeling Wrong. As the student watches the move- | ments of the plane under the in- structor’s control, however, he soon learns that the instruments were rigitt and his “feeling” wrong. He can not obliterate years of con- ditioning of one character immediate- | ly, but gradually he becomes recon- | ditioned to fly by what he sees within | the ccokpit instead of what he has, seen in the past outside of it. After he learns to control the at- titude of the plane by instrument, eventually with the air-speed indica- tor inoperative, the student is re- quired to fly a compass course exactly eas he will in commercial service when outside vision ts at zero.

No effort is made, as is being ‘planned in the United States, to teach the pilot to land blind. But the student is taught to take orf without other guides than his in- struments. The chief difficulty in this, of course, is to teach him to level off properly once at his desired altitude since the normal tendency, under blind conditions in this ma- neuver, is to nose the plane down- ward.

U.S. and British Schneider Cup Tests Are Contrasted In sharp contrast with the prepara- tions of Lieut. Alford J. Williams for the Schneider Cup races were those of the British team. In every detail was the contrast clear. The money for Lieut. Williams’ craft was raised by private subscrip- tion. The ship, built in the naval air- craft factory in Philadelphia, was largely of Williams’ design. The mechanical assistance he had in the testing of the ship involved a considerable factor of loyalty to Will- lams himself. The provisions for testing the craft were largely those of Willlams’ own making. Supervision of the tests was a mat- ter of his own responsibility and left to his technical knowledge. Flying the ship was strictly a one- man job. Williams was the one man. It is true that the Navy gave Will- lams the widest latitude in preparing for the race. -It assisted him in every way possible within the limits of its perspective on the subject. But every one recognized his effort as a solo proposition. On their part, the British had: Government money with which design and build their craft. The best design talent available. A race team composed of seven of the best pilots in their service, as well as a special technica] staf, me- chanical staff and even a trainer.,All the pilots had to do was fly, enough of an assignment under any circum- stances. In sharpest contrast, of all, how- ever, they had their 1927 ships, capa- ble of 300 miles an hour, in which to practice, to AIR MAIL SCHEDULE Any mailable matter (except that Mable to damage by freezing) up to 50 pounds in weight and not over 84 inches in length and girth com- bined, may be sent by the domestic alr mail service.

S-Built Planes Given Preference Foreign Markets, Swing Wide Open to Ships Demonstrated. While the United States and Eu- rope have accepted the airplane as a medium of rapid transportation, there still are many countries that have yet to undertake extensive use of modern commercial aircraft, it is pointed out by aviation authorities. Countries such as China, Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Guatemala and Peru are said to be just beginning to realize the possibilities offered by air travel toward the rapid development of their resources. : It is interesting to note that the majority of these as well as other countries which can not at this time manufacture thelr own airplanes are turning to American-built craft, de- spite certain trade barriers, and prices and credit concessions offered by manufacturers from other countries.

HESITATED OVER AUTO Those whose skepticism thus far has forestalled their use of. the air- plane as a medium of transportation, or who have falled at least to take a baptismal flight, are simply follow-~- ing the footsteps of those ultra- cautious persons who, in each genera- tion, have been dubious of trans- portation advances, So says a statement of one of the largest airplane companies; which points out that steamboats, railroad trains, trolley cars, elevated railroads, subways and even the titude of great to meet not only an attitude great skepticism but even opposition. Just 100 years ago school trustees in an Ohio town refused the use of a schoolhouse to debate the subject, “Is the steam engine feasible?” Schoo] trustees wrote, “If God had intended His beings should go at the unholy speed of 15 miles an hour, He would have so declared in Holy, Writ.” When Fulton announced his first steamer trip on the Hudson, skeptics sat on the river bank expecting to see it blow up. When two French engineers op- erated a steam locomotive on the atreets of Paris they were arrested. This treatment discouraged other in- ventors. When the first sleeping car was put in use, some passengers went to bed with their clothes on, being fearful that something would happen during the night. When Chicago started its elevated street railway. system which now handles hundreds of thousands of people a day out of Chicago’s Loop, people were reluctant to ride. . When the first “he@rseless car- riages” were frightening horses. and disturbing the countryside there were many people who refused to ride in those “new-fangled contraptions” fearing they were going to blow = As recently as twenty years ago zimes carried discussions as to whether the automobile would ever be widely used as a unit in this country’s trans- portation system, When the Wright brothers were carrying on their experiments with the airplane, which made the first successful flight, they noted each day that a certain man with a horse and wagon would drive up to the edge of the field and park there until their atempted flight was completed, Then he would drive back to the city shak- ing his head solemnly all the way. es As Pasee: PRE OH, a 2 —— 4 - 4 - + e+ ° ry ~} a r 4 . ! —_ @ Chromium-plated cowl bands and cowl lights enhance the attractive exterior.

Hongkong, China, “stiChina has more vessels than all the rest.of the world put. together. Its junks and sampans are uncount- able; the Chinese living on them, on coast * lions. And John Chinaman is the 5Mfodrld’s bravest sailor—also the most superstitious. err ough these boats and their in- »habitants the China Sea and the ports of the Chinese coast offer to ~&zaveler such sights as can be seéi. snowhete else in the world. “~The trip by ocean liner between ye ngkong and Shanghai is a voy- 24 in the midst of freight junks and SE ning craft.

By DR. W. A. EVANS, POISON HAZARDS ON FARMS. ®. GRAHAM ROGERS says we make a mistake when we think of occupational poisoning as be- ing a hagard to mone save factory workers in cities. Farmers are sub- 28 feet in beam, they range in capac- ity from 180 to 400 tons. As in prac- tically all Chinese junks, the. hull is divided into compartments, which are booked by shippers under an arrange- ment allowing them to cram as much freight as possible into the space. On this junk a solid deckhouse rises high in the stérn, forming a poop as in the galleons of Columbus. The mea junk’s decorations vary accord- ing to the home port—-each hag ite distinctive colors, with no design too fantastic to put on the elliptical stern. The crew varies from 25 to 35, being housed in the deckhouse aft with the junks’ “joss.’ Three of the most important over- sea voyages made by Chinese craft in modern timés have been by junks of this type—the Keying from Hong- kong to London in 1848, the Whang- po from this port to Sydney in 1908 and the Ningpo ffom Shanghai +o San Francisco in 1912. Although they are practically an untouched El Dorado for the artist, who laugh at these junks. which to | our Occidental eyes seem so crazy | and out of date, but there is at least | one thing about them which gives food for thought. The junk ancestors of these clumsy | looking vessels seen in Chinese waters | today gave to the shipping of our! gerous chemical once used in the | Western world various improvements, among them watertight compart- ments, leeboards, the turret princi- | ple, and probably the compass.

OW you have the secret! ‘How to keep a husband happy for 30 years! To some of us who have failed to keep one happy for even 30 months this is news. So let us one and all give a vote of thanks, standing, and resolve that from now on and forever we will spoll them consciously, unconsciously, and all the time. And hope for the best: Dear Miss McDonald: I would like to restate your ques- tion regarding matrimonial vacations, and their effect upon married hap- piness. We have been married more than 30 years and call our marriage successful. Certainly the gredtest calamity that could befall either of us would be the loss of the other. My husband continually says, “It seems as though we ,mean more to each other every year.” We have taken vacations together and taken them separately, and I have studied the question with care. The advantages of the vacation to- gether consist in shared pleasute. Every pleasure shared, if the pleasure is genuine and mutual, strengthens the marriage bond. But the effect is ruined if either husband or wife is bored, and so vacations need to be carefully planned. Unless the in- terests and tastes of both afe very similar such vacations must be short. A week is often delightful where two weeks would be tiresome. _ The advantages of the separate va- cations lie in the complete escape from self-sacrifices. Successful mar- riage requires an immense amount of self-forgetting which must become habitual. For example: My husband hates to come home and find out, so I am always there when he Is. And he says he can not remember that I ever kept him waiting. I make it a point never to find fault with him, and I make suggestions tact- fully, and not too often, lest he should find himself nagged or bossed >> cc TWIN-IGNITION SIX Pricep From $1295 to $1695 ft. o. b. factory Distributors 1709 L Street N.

In short, I spoil-him inten- tionally and habitually, and he spoils me. We both believe in it since no- body else spoils either of us, and everybody likes a little spoiling. But deep down in even the most unselfish person there is a self which occasionally must come to the sur- face for air and exercise and a chance to kick wp its heels. If it ts not given its chance it will simply take it and break out in uninten- tional acts of irritability or unkind- ness which mar the domestic rela- tionships in a most unfortunate way. Self-sacrifice is good. Without it there is no such thing as real mar- riage. The rewards are boundless and above price. But occasionally one be- comes more aware of the sacrifice than of the rewards and then one needs the separate vacation. I shall never forget the first va- cation I ever took alone, without either husband or child.

La InHonor ofa NE hundred and fifty years ago, on. the 1lith of. this month, Count Casimer Pulaski died. What does that statement mean to you? Does it recall thrilling memories of a soldier whose valor and whose love of liberty have been equaled Hy few men in the. annals of the world? Or does it merely remind you that a Polish- American patriot of that name fought and fell in the Revolutionary War? Time has a way of dimming the personalities of our defenders and molding them into standard charac- ters of history, but Pulaski is too col- orful a figure to be consigned to such a fate. A national sesquicentennial celebration has been afranged that the flame of his memory may be re- kindled in the hearts of those for whose country he gave his life. Presi- dent Hoover has issued a proclama- tion calling upon the people of the land to take part, in the commemora- tion, and the Congress has created a United States: Pulaski Sesquicenten- nial Commission, under whose aus- pices a program will be carried out that will attract the attention of al! Europe as well as of our continent. Beginning next Wednesday in 6a- vannah, Ga., where Pulaski was mor- tally wounded, the chief exercises will be continued in Washington on the afternoon and evening of Thursday and concluded on Friday. Distin- guished. representatives of Poland, France and the United States will par- ticipate in these impressive ceremo- nies, while additional observances are being planned by patriotic organiza- tions for cities, towns and villages in every section of the country. " From the hundreds of speeches that will be made during the period of the celebration, two facts will stand Out © and impress themselves anew upon the American consciousness. Pulaski is entitled to our gratitude, and he demands our admiration. There is something to fire the imagination about a man who values & cause—any cause—more highly than his life. When that cause is the cause of liberty,’a particular chord is - struck on’.the heartstrings of our country, and an entry is made on the ‘ list of the nation’s heroes. Pulaski's * name occupies a unque place on this roll of the honored. Many patriots have given their lives in defense of the land they loved. Pulaski gave his for a country he scarcely knew. There was no necessity of protecting his home, his loved oges®*or his rights e died for to spur him into danger. or all. men. the principle of freedom everywhere. It is symbolical of the tragic tenor of his exi-*:nce that death came be- fore he knew that he was fighting ' at last a w'~~ing fight. From his boy- hood he had been engaged in com- bating despotism and oppression, and always he had been unable to achieve | his ends. He had wanted above all things to free his native Poland from its foreign Invaders and his efforts had brought him banishment and disgrace. The romanticism of his exploits-ied to legends galore, and from them Sprang novels in many tongues. Written in the form “of memoirs by mythical comrades in arms and based on situations embracing- a measure of truth, some of these fictitious works have become confused with fact in the minds of their readers. Notable among them is the account of one Baron de Lovzinski, -“son-in- law” of Count Pulaski, which the in- terest attending the.coming anni- versary has brought to light after years of darkness, labeled as an au- thentic document. . Pulaski is. here disclosed aS a middle-aged man, the father of a beautiful maiden, Lodoiska, whom Lovinski loves. Believing the young baron untrue to Poland's in- terests, the infurlated coumt has his daughter imprisoned rather than see them wed. Through a series of breath-taking incidents, the misun- “derstanding is cleared away, the mar- riage is husband and father engage consummated and the t. toFreedom Elaborate Ceremonies Are Planned to Commem- orate the Death, 150 Years Ago, Oct. 11th, of Count Casimir Pulaski, Polish Patriot, Who Ren- dered America Priceless Service in the Revolu- tion—A Fact Story of a Valiant General About Whose Name Many Fictitious Traditions Have Clustered.

Then little Dor- liska, the last, is stolen by Russians, - and the heartbroken mother does not The two men, defeated | long survive. in their projects, repair at length to America, to aid in obtaining for a new country the rights they could not bring to their own. Pulaski is killed, but Lovinski lives, and the story ends with Dorliska’s being miraculously restored to her father’s arms. Aside from the fact that Pulaski, definitely recorded by historiang of his own day as only 32 yearg old at the time of his death, could s¢arcely have been the grandfather of five ° 6 children, the tale is too lurid and inconsistent in its development to merit a consideration of historic worth. Yet there shines through the sensational pages of love and. warfare and despair and death, a portrait of . the gallant Pole that is as believable as it is vital. One-sees him as a fiery, proud, relentless chief, true to the traditions of. Poland, and consumed with a love for his country and for freedom that is blinding in its fierce- ness. “Cruel, fanatical Destiny,” it pleases the author-to have him cry as he expires, “Pulaski falls a martyr to Amreican liberty, and the Poles still. continue slaves!” The unadorned facts of his life fit together into a stormy whole. He was born in Podilia, Poland, on March 4, 1748, Piaggio aor gee Joseph Pulaskt and descendant of the -ancient lish nobility. In 1768 he became ted with his father in the cele- brated Confederation of Bar, for the preseryation of the liberties of Po- land. The old count was taken pris- oner and put to death as a result of his. activities, and in 1770 young Pu- laski- was elected commander-in-chief of the insurgents. The succeeding years were among the most turbulent in Poland's event- ful history. Russia, Prussia and Aus- , the three mighty surrounding powers, were feeling their way to the country’s heart with greedy and un- principled hands. Stanislaus Augus- tus, the reigning monarch, had been raised to the throne through Russian intrigue and Pulaski looked upon him. as a viceroy of ipa wa'eh w e could: As the deopieed foreign ire selene . ‘ js ® . protected his 120 pesag an oes down upon him more tightly the young leader, with his small army of patriots, fought with a fury that as- tonished the world. Fofced to des+ perate lengths, at last, by losses in his ranks, he conceived the plan of abducting King Stanislaus, placing him at the head of his army and forcing him to act in that capacity, in order that the Poles who were loyal to him might be inspired intd action and unite with the insurgent troops against the oncoming Russian hordes. Disguised as peasants, he and «4 group of confederates entered Warsaw for the purpose of carrying out this hazardous undertaking, but the ate tempt failed, and Pulaski found him- self driven from the éountry, an out- cast, his immense estates confiscated anda price placed upon his head. With ardor still undampened, he found his way into Turkey in an ef- fort to obtain the sultan’s aid. There. having failed in his mission. he re- ceived word of the dismemberment of Poland by its covetous neighbors— a development which meant complete disaster and the end. It was thus that a hopeless, tie illusioned and homeless noble found Sanctuary in France at about the time the American colonies were be- ginning their struggle for independ- ence, and met there Benjamin Frank- lin, arrived in search of support for the colonists’ cause. The indications are that Washing- ton’s Army was‘in no hurry to ac- cept Pulaski’s Subsequent offer of his services. His enemies had circulated stories in defamation of his charac- ter, and the abduction incident had become known as an attempt to kil! his king. Then a reat admirer >f the Pole in the person of Rulhiere, author of the “History of Anarchy in Poland,” spoke to Franklin in his behalf, offering proof that the ac- cusations against him were in fact unfounded. Soon afterward Pulaski sailed for America, with the following letter of recommendation, addressed to Gen. Washington in Franklin’s hand. “Count. Pulaski, a Polish officer who ts famous throughout all Europe for his bravery and his conduct while defending the freedom of his country against the invasion of the three great powers, Russia, Austria, Prus- sia, will have the honor of deliver- ing this letter to Your Excellency. The court here has encour##ed and voyage, with the thought that he could be of great uSe to you. . . . I hope that he will find in your army, under the orders of Your Excellency, an oppervunity to distinguish himself.” Pulaski landed in Boston during the early summer of 1777 and pro- ceeded directly to Philadelphia to see Washington and to deliver to La Fayette letters from his wife. Im-« patient of any delay which might attend his application to the Con- gress, he enlisted as a volunteer, without waiting for an appointment. He accompanied Washington to the Battle of Brandywine on September 11 and clothed himself with glory upon that field by his -brilltant--re- pulse of an attempt of the British to cut off the line of retreat. Four days later, upon the recommendation of Washington, he was appointed brigadier-general in command of the cavalry—the first chief of cavalry of the American Army. In his initial engagement of importance, he. had . won the esteem of his American commander and of La‘ Payette, and the adulation of young Paul Benta- Jou, who was to become itis friend nd champion in life and death. His next conspicuous service was to _ $ave the army from a surprise at War- ten Tavern, near Philadelphia. Later, he participated in the battle of Ger- mantown, where he was handicapped by incomplete. ranks, and in the win- ter of 1977-78: became €onnécted with the operations of Gen. : pathory Wayne, undet whose helped to defeat’ > isn *pritien a Gh aahee tise, ho. thon | striving to ring eter out of chaos, *»

Zz. The cavairy, as beth he and Wash- Angton realized, was not ali that @ghould be. The regimenits, as turned @ver to him, were poorly equipped, Poorly organizec and’ poorly com- @anded and his unfamilarity with the English tongue and with the tem- perament and point of view of his American officers made the work of reorganization difficult. The soldiers could not understand the broken English of this survivor of another age, this representative of the old Polish knighthood, with alt its fine qualities and with all its faults. And his speech was only one of the things about him that they failed to com- prehend. Moreover, he ehafed under the restrictions which limited his field ef action. In his own country he had been an isolated chief, with boundiess liberty. In discouragement, he eventually resigned his command, and in March, 1778, suggested to Washington and the Congress the formation of an in- dependent corps, to be officered prin- cipally by foreigners, and to consist of 68 horsemen and 200 infantrymen, the former to be recruited from the good elements of the country and the latter partly from enemy deserters and prisoners of war. The request was readily approved, and April, 10 of that year found Pu- laski in Maryland, eager to get the organization under headway. “I came down to have the honour of present- ing my compliments to you,” he wrote the council of state, “in the mean- time call for your assistance in my recrulting—l1 clame Gentilmen for your steem and amity, calling my legion Maryland legion I'll endeavor myself to have that name forever honoured by our friends and respected. by our enemies, and that way reach to the glory whom I and my officers are found off.” ; Three days late~ he opened 4a recruiting office in Baltimore, notice of which was published in the Mary- land Journal and Baltimore Adver- tiser, as follows: “Congress having resolved to raise a corps, consisting of infantry and cav- alry, to be commanded by Gen. Count Pulaski, all those who desire to dis- tinguish themselves in the service of their country are invited to enlist in that corps, which is established on the same principles as the Roman legions were. The frequent oppor- tunities which the nature of the serv- ice of that corps will offer to the en- terprising, brave and vigilant soldiers, who shall serve in it are motives which ought to in uence those who are qualified for admission into it, to prefer it to other cor’s not so im- mediately destined to harass the enemy, and the many captures which will infallibly be made, must indem- nify the legionary. soldiers for the hardships they must sustain, and the inconsiderable sum given for bounty, the term of their service being no longer than one year from the time that the corps shall be completed. - Their dress ig calculated. to give a martial appearance, and to secure the soldier against the - weather and season. The time for action approaching, those who desire to have an opportunity ef distin- guishing themselves in that corps are requested to apply to Mr. de Sequid (de Segond), captain of Pulaski’s Legion, at Mrs. Ross’ house.” Soon more than the atipulated number of men had enlisted, and in. his enthusiasm for the project Pu- Jaski invested in it a large portion of the private fortune which remained to him. “On Wednesday inst (July 29),” the Maryland Journal and Balti- more Advertiser was able to report by midsummer, “the-~Hon:—-Gen:—-Count Pulaski reviewed his Independent Legion in this town. They made a martial appearance and performéd Many maneuvers in a manner that reflected the highest honor on both officers and privates.” In this manner the famous legion came into being whose valor has been embalmed in verse by Longfel- low in his “Hymn of the Moravian Nuns at the Consecration of Pulaski's Banner.” It was the poet's thought that the beautiful embrofdered crim- son banner borne aloft by Pulaski through every battle to his last had been presented to him by the Morav- ian Nuns of Bethlehem, Pa., in grati- tude for his kindness to them during @ visit to the wounded La Fayette, who was convalescing in their midst. This romantic version has been dis- credited by many writers, some claiming that it was wrought by the muns for pay, upon Puleski’s order, and other agreeing with Paul Ben- ccecrecet eu genal inaamnamene lemency of the Col. Bentalou, himself a mem- ber of the legion, and Pulaski’s clos- est friend, preserved the banner for ‘45 years in the Baltimore home to which he retired after the Revolu- tion, in preference to returning %t0 his native France. He valued it, as he says, “as a holy and glorious in- The memorial to Count Pu-. laski in the United States Cap- itol at Washington. heritance, as a precious relic,” but it found its way eventually to the Baltimore Museum, after having been used in the celebration attend- ing Gen. La Payette’s visit to Balti- more in 1824, and is now in the hands of the Maryland Historical 8o- ciety. | After service in New Jerséy and Pennsylvania, the legion was erdered to Charleston, 8S. C., where it ar- rived at a critical time. The British forces, under Gen. Prevost, had made a rapid advance from Savannah, and the governor and council had al- ready agreed upon particularly hu- miliating terms of capitulation. Pu- laski protested this action and man- aged to hold the city until additiona! troeps arrived, when Prevost was forced to abandon his enterprise. Savannah was at this time under the complete control of the enemy, and during the early part of Septem- ber, 1779, the Legion was ordered to Georgia to prepare for a concentrated attack, in which Count .D’Estaing’s French troops and the American forces were to combine. The assault took place on October 9, with Pulaski in command of the allied armies’ cavalry, placed at the rear of two attacking columns—one French, the other American. Accord- ing to Bentalou’s version of what followed, the French column was caught in a marsh under violent fire, D’Estaing was wounded, and Pulaski, seeing him fall, rushed forward into the thickest ef the combat. in an effort to rally the disordered troeps. He received a swivel shot in the right leg and was carried from the field by his lieutenant and placed. on the United States’ brig, the Wasp, to be taken to Charieston. The ship was delayed by storms, and had just left the river behind, when Pulaski died, two days tater, in the arms of Bentalou. He was buried there at sea, and a half-masted ship made its way to Charleston, where a crimson banner and a sword and a horse without & master played their part in the official services, * which proclaimed his death to the world. All America mourned his going, as ‘did the masses in many lands, and from Poland’s monarch came the tribute, “He has died as he lived, a hero, but an enemy of Kings.” A century and a half ago this hap- pened, but there are connecting links to bring it near. In the library of the Maryland Historical Society may . be found a roster of the membera of the famous. Legion, some of whose descendants, now living close by, have stirring tales to tell that have come to them from a great or a great-great-grandfather, through the lips of his children’s children. Mr. James FP. Duhamel, an attorney of Washington, points with pride to the second name on the roster, that of his great-grandfather, William B. ‘Seth, who was adjutant of the Legion, and who served for six years In the Continental Army. The saber worn by him during this period has remained to the present day in the family, where its effect has been such that four generations succeeding its orig- inal possessor have engaged at one time or another in the military serv- ice of their country. Of Pulaski, himself, there are no direct descendants. A member of his famity will be present at the ceére- monies, however, in the person of Pranciszek Pulaski, former Polish Minister to America, who traces his ancestry to the great leader’s brother. Other members of the Polish delega- tion will include Tytus Pilipowicz, The isapoatiol shaft that is the South's tribute to the memory of Gen. Washington’s ally.

Sergius Zahorski, famous cavalryman; Waclow Sieroszewski, author; Posel Maryan Cieplak, member of the Polish Diet, and Roman Dy- boski, professor of English lNterature zt Cracow University. The mission from Poland, on its ar- rival in Savannah, will be taken out to the approximate spot in the Atlantic Ocean where Pulaski was buried and there, amid impressive ceremonies, drop a wreath upon the besom of the sea. Adding to the drama of the oc- casion will be the fact that the vessel selected for the purpose is the United States Coast Guard patrol boat Pu- laski,. named in Gen. Pulaski’s honor. The original vessel to bear this name was built by the United States Reve- nue Cutter Service over 120 years ago and the: present modern steel patrol boat, in carrying on the name, will doubtless hand it down to pusterity in its successor. Already it has done much to justify its title, for it was through the bravery of the Pulaski's officers and crew that the steamship Ceot was saved from havoc on March 4 last.

Some of them were doubt- less founded by soldiers of the count’s army; all of them by ‘his admirers. It is claimed by many that, had Pulaski lived, he would have remained in America, perhaps settling in Balti- more near Col. Bentalon, and would have given to the country which. he’ had helped to-create, the devotion of his ardent nature and the peace time services of his conspiculous talents. “He was neither an adventurer nor a~~ professional soldier. He fought not for the excitem@&t and giamour of the battlefield, but for the end to be achieved. Moreover, he was a young man, young enough to plant his in- terests anew, in a new country, built on the principles which he eherished, All these things support their view. Perhaps it ts a right-one, To the majority, however, Pulaski can be visualized only as an old world figure, who, for all his love of liberty; would have been a misfit. on American shores. It is easy to pic- ture him as returning to Poland: with Kosciuszko, scorning the order of banishment from his native tand, and there engaging desperately in the fiAaming events of the succeeding years.

Eighty years ago this poet and author was found dying on the streets of Baltimore, Md. The.story of his plight has never been told in a truly reliable manner. Many theories have been advanced, but most of them are untenable. It is the lrony of otto that this man whose analytical mind devised Such mental twisters as “The Gold Bug,” “The Murders in the Rue Morgue,” “Mss. Found in a Bottle,” é&c., &c., which were the forerunner and inspiration of Sherlock Holmes and his tribe, should leave such a baffling tragedy at the end of his life. Eighteen hundred and forty-nine was a period before the days of ¢x- haustive police research into current mysteries. The city officilaJs were con- tent to accept the yerdict of phy- sicians, “exposure,” without thought that a darker story might, in true Possque manner, lurk behind the obvious. Strange to say, the same demions of ill fate which had pursued Poe’s earthly path and of which he had complained so. bitterly in “The Raven,” followed him after death. Hardly had the requiems ceased when the hoarse croak of a defamer biog- rapher began which tore into shreds what was left of reputation and fame in the public mind toward this un- happy child of genius. For a long. time Poe’s very grave was improperly marked and a monu- mental tombstone ordéred by his relatives which was being delivered in Baltimore was wrecked in a railroad accident. At this inoneti’ in American litera- ture when diligent search has fre- vealed so many new facts.in the lives of authors, ancient and. modern, it ts a matter of wonderment that some energetic biographer does not solve this surpassing mystery, worthy of the matchless technic of Poe himself. Washington has a special interest in the mystery as the neighbor of Baltimore and because of the recent acquisition by the Library of Con- gress of the Ellis and Allen papers which have proved to be of such | value in Poe lore. While nothing in these papers has been found dealing even remotely with the death of Poe, yet they have made the Capital a center of Poeana through their pres- ence ‘in the collection of priceless manuscripts rapidly making the Lib- rary of Congress famous throughout the world. And, in addition to this, the recent agitation to name a public school building here for the poet lends added interest just now to any- thing concerning this cornerstone of American poesy. Tomorrow will be the eightieth an- niversary of the death of Edgar Allan Poe on October 7, 1849. What happened in those fateful hours from September 29, 1849, when the Richmond steamer landed Poe on the waterfront of Baltimore, until . October 3, when. he was found in a dying condition under the steps of the old Baltimore Museum, is a deep mystery of letters. In a sense, it was highly appropriate that this word painter of horrors should find the stage of life set for his exit in this weird manner. The strange part of it all is that the details of. the incident should be shrouded in doubt at the time of his “death and contintie secret even-unto™ the present time. Yet it was pecu- Marly fitting that the last scene of all should take place in Baltimore. Baltimore was the home of his heart if not, indeed, the place of his birth, as Poe himself always claimed, in contradistiniction to the theory of his Boston birth. In the Monumental City he had known nearly all of the meager portion of happiness hich had been his lot. There he had tasted the joys of first literary fame and first love. Again and again in his wanderings his thoughts had turned back to his beloved Baltimore. In the words of his favorite Tennyson, out for him forever The city of his ancestors was to receive back the broken body of the outcast poet who was to become: the proudest heritage ot ris race.

It was to afford him the last. kindly shelter of all—the grace of a grave. Yet chance, often the tutelary angel of this poet of midnight. waseresponsible for the last great act of his life being played in that city. Poe had been in deep .waters for some time before the final days in Baltimore. Two years before the beautiful Virginia Clemm Poe, his child wife, had brought into tragic reality Poe’s own words, “The death of a beautiful woman is, unques- tionably, the most poetical topic in the “world.” As he watched despair- ingly at her bedside, Virginia Clemm breathed her last on January 30, 1847, With her fleeting soul went the last hope of earthly per nee . Edgar Allan Poe. True, there had been several inter- ludes. of joy in those last dark years after Virginia's death. One of these had come in his brief idyll with Helen Whitman, the New England poetess, years his senior. Their romance, brief as @ flash of lightning, as it were, is a classic in literature. Virginia Clemm Poe, wife of Edgar Allan irom a sketch. made death, - Clinedinst: of his death. Mrs. Whitman, too, was a poet of no mean skill. Strangely enough, she is bést remembered by the lines she . wrote on a portrait of Poe, which hung ever on her wall, hidden by a ‘silken curtain from the sight of pro- fane eyes. The poem follows: “After long years I raised the folds concealing That-face,-magnetic.aa the morning's beam» While slumbering memory thrilled at its revealing Like Memron wakening from his marble dream. “Again I saw the brow’s translucent pallor, The dark hair floating o’er it like a plume, The sweet, imperious mouth, whose haughty valor Defied all portents of impending doom.” . It was no marvel that they met, prominent as both were among the authors of the day. The lives of Poe and Mrs. Whitman found their climax in that meeting. The poet Poe, ever a hunter of the mystic and improba- ble, conceived the notion that there was ® preordained connection be- tween their fates. - “I yielded at once,” he wrote, “to an overwhelming sense of fatality. - From that hour I have never driven from my soul the belief that my des- tiny for good or for evil, either here or hereafter, is in some measure in- terwoven with your own Passionately devoted as Poe -had been to Virginia Clemm, that sweet but colorless child could not awaken in that poet heart the real ardor of love. She could only point the way to Helen Whitman—the one love of his life. In Helen Whitman was the fulfill- ment of all his romantic dreams. She was the queen of his exquisite fan- cies about women, those delicate, rare visions of beautiful women, ethereal creatures who remain in lofty goli- tude on the peaks of literature, un- surpassed by any poet’s creative fancy before or since his day. So he wrote his burning words in immortal love letters, filled with the fancy of their divine kinship of soul; letters that breathe all the passion of the “sonnets from the Portuguese,” letters that have been equaled rarely in the ananls of love. Friends busied themselves acquaint- ing Mrs. Whitman with the vagabond life and nature of her poet. Natural- ly, with such pressure on all sides, the path of their love was not smooth. Finally Mrs. Whitman reluctantly yielded to the importunities of her friends, letters of renunciation passed between the poets, and they never Saw each other again. There was no scene, as some of Poe’s defamers have declared; the relationship merely ceased and they met no more: This was early in 1849. Though they knew it not, Poe had only a few months of life left to him. After his death Mrs, Whitman was his stanch and constant defender. She published a thin volume entitled, “Edgar Allan Poe and His Critics,” which spoke of him in highest praise and contradicted many wild rumors about his sad life. This tragedy of the heart saddened the rest of Mrs. Whitman's life. It could not dull her appreciation of Poe’s brilliant powers. But it cast a soft veiling shadow over her. She seemed different: and apart from other women. Mrs. Whitman lived to be 75 years of age, cherishing the mem- ory of her lost poet to the last. When the personal romance forsook him, Poe turned anew to the dream of a magazine—The Stylus Magazine -—<which he had outlined and planned but which, alas, he was never able to promote properly through his ex- treme poverty. To establish this magazine was the abiding dream of hig mature years; “The one great purpose of my literary life,” he de- clared. “Undoubtedly (unless I die) I will accomplish it—but I can afford to lose nothing by precipitancy. I! wish to establish a journal in which the’ men of genius may fight their - battles upon some terms of equality © with those dunces, the men of talent.” Hope had dawned for this venture in May, 1849, when a young printer publisher of Oquawka, Ill., Edward H. N. Patterson, long an admirer of Edgar Allan Poe and his poems, gave serious consideration to the question of publication of The Stylus Maga- zine. Poe eagerly accepted his inter- est and began to plan at once for a lecture tour of New England and Vir- ginfa in the interests of the new magazine.

Laden with to- bacco, it was bound for the leaf mar- ket at Winston. The driver, Bill James, a silent man, spoke but few words, and those admonitory to his Little animals. “‘Giddap” seemed to be the limit of his vocabulary. By his side was a neighbor boy, just turfed 23, who was making his first visit to town. He had said good-by to the old farm on which he had spent all his life, and was now about to face the big world and make it Succumb ‘to hig untutored will. All day, from sunrise to 4 o'clock in the afternoon, they traveled up hill and down dale, and all day the country boy talked of his great ad- venture. Never man breasted the waves of the unknown séa of life with higher hopes, never one with smaller capital. All the money he had in his “jeans”-—-for he was dressed in home- ly homespun—was the proverbial three dimes; all the education he had had been acquired before he was 12 in the little red schoolhouse, a one- room affair, that was a sign manual of the poverty of the Old North State during that period. But between 12 and the day we meet him he had had much experience which no money can buy. This was his wealth; on this he was to build his fortune. It would one day carry him to the Unit- ed, States Senate. His father, Richard Emerson Brocz, had been a gallant Confederate sol- dier, Four stormy years of war Rad broken his health. so when this eld- est son of his was 16 he died in the hoy’s arms early One morning while they were alone. The responsibility of the family then fell on his young shoulders, and he tried to, carry on for his widowed mother and her five ehildren for seven years. It was an impossible task. When the farmer pulled into the wagon yard at Winston, he and the youth unhitched the mules and fed them ‘T’ll be back later on,” Said the younger man, They had brought a “snack” with them and, as was the eustom in those days, they would sleep that night in the wagon. The farmer nodded his.head ana watched the young man as he walked away toward the business section of the town. seeking employment. He stood unmoved, his thoughts clocking time with the rapid steps of his companion. That position has never changed, the kindly farmer is still living on his Davie County farm, the young man is still briskly walking on to bis destiny. Nearly all of the stores of Winston i that year were general merchan- dise establishments. They sold every- thing from poultry currants to corsets, to idols. Anything that a customer could wish for had to be on the shelves. They were the forerunners of the great department stores of this Ge. At the first of these eouprtry stores he came to the country boy saw a Small man standing in a half-leaning position against a wooden post that held up the wooden sheu over the “sidewalk. He was smoking and ereaminc: “Are you the boss?” he asked. “Yes. What can I do for rou?” “IT want a job.” “Ever clerk’ any?” “No, sir. I shave lived on a farm all Moy life.” There was no disryulsing that fact. His dress* betrayed him. The mer- @hant, Frank C. Brown, was arrested by the.keen face and bright eyes of the boy and by his native wit. He had lots of self-possession, and talked without hesitation or embarrassment. “Brock? You say your name is Brock? My uncle had a lieutenant by that name in his regiment.” “That ts correct, sir. My father was Lieut. Brock in Maj: Brown's Tégiment.”’ and from ipecac Throughout the Old South that is. “still the open sesame to many doors and many hearts; and it opened this merchant's heart, | “Had any echooling?" “Yes, air, a little bit.

Around it he has bullt his character. For three years he worked like a slaye at Brown’s estore in Winston. There wére seven clerks, and it was said of him—in fact, it is told of him there now—that he was the first of them up in the morning and the last of them to retire at night. He opened the store at 6 and closed the doors at 10 at night. His only diversion was going to church on Sunday, a habit he has never broken himself of. It was also said of him that the customers who patronized the store wanted Will Brock to wait on them, and pretty soon the sales Aips showed that he soki more goods than all of the other clerks combined. He was never idle, always busy, always smil- ing, with an Irish witticism on his tongue and Scotch thrift to hold him in check. . The Reynolds family was the most prominent in Winston in those days just as it is today. R. J. Reynolds was manufacturing chewing and smoking tobacco; his brother, Will, was buying leaf tobacco all over the country. Mrs. Will Reynolds did all of her trading at Brown's store, and she would let no one but Will Brock serve her. If he was busy. she sat down and waited; sometimes it. was an.hour before he was through with a country customer; but waiting an, hour for Will Brock was No loss of time to the wealthy Mrs. Reynolds. A clannish family, the Reynolds folks: R. J., an old bachelor, was often found at night at the Rome of his brother, with whom he discussed _ plans for enlarging his business. “I want to put on a sales force,” said he, “and I: would like to try out some country boys who-have never had any experience. Will, you know all the farmers in this country; sup- pose you pick me out a lot of good boys. I want the ugliest you can find. Ugly, honest and energetic.” , “The man you want is Wiil Brock,” spoke up Mrs. Will Reynolds. . “He’s © the best clerk at Frank Brown's store.” : “Send him aroun to see me, ter,” replied the great Reynolds. One interview settled the matter. Will Brock fitted the measurement even to his lack of pulchritude. “I ‘know nothing about the tobacco business,” Brock told Mr. Reynolds. “And I don’t know anything about traveling. I was never on a train but — once in my life?” “When was that?” “I went to Mocksville jJast Sunday when they opened the new road.” Mocksville is 20 miles from Win- ston, sO .Mr Reynolds thought that that was enough railroading for a be- ginning. Three years of hard. work for his first employer were ended: Will Brock now began his career jn earnest. The young tobacco salesman, turned 26, took the train for sis- just Colum- his headquarters, with an aching heart. As this narrative is a faithful chronicle, it must state that the’ young Tarheel set out with no strong attachment for his new posi- tion. Already he was homesick for the customers at Brown's. Missing the train connection at Atlanta,-he -had-to--epend-the night. there, and when the clerk at the old Kimball House charged hjm 75-cents for his room, he thought “he was” bes ing imposed upon because he was from the country, so he asked the clerE outside where they could settle the dispute.

He knew . that no decent hotel in Tarheclia ever charged a man more than $2 a day for a room and three square meals. At the end of his first year Mr. Reynolds paid Will Brock a bonus that amounted to more than a year’s wages at Brown's, and at the end of _ the second he.made him sales man- ager for the Southern territory and placed under him 50 salesmen.

a ing every time he smelled tobacco. - ‘Will Brock turned his slip and called | it a day. “You are just a big Ke will Brock,” said blunt Richard J, Reyn- olds to his prize salesman. “If you stay with the R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co. in a few years you. will be a mil- lionaire. “And so he would have been, for on the foundation already laid, pretty soon R. J. Reynolds was mak- ing millionaires out of all his offi- cers, and out of most of the promi- nent men in Winston. Twenty years ago, just yesterday, all this happened. Will Brock had been living in Chattanooga for two years, and had made some good friends there. He was active in church work, and active in the civic life of his community. Among his friends were. the young men who were soon to make Chattanooga what she is today. Some of them were Re- publicans; many of them were North- ern men. The most prominent among them is now the chairman of the Re- publican National Committee. Their friendship is an idyllic thing. After his last visit to Winston, Mr. Broek returned to Chattanooga with his mind bent on going West for a vacation. He would forget business for a while. In the good old-fash- ioned Southern manner, he went the rounds to tell his friends good-by, among them the firm of Trigg, Dobbs _ & Co., who had been a good customer of his. “Going West?” said Mr. Dobbs. “Why. don’t you stay here? We have a little candy factory that is not do- ing se well; Buy it and run it. You can make a success of it.” A candy factory! Such a thought never enterea his head, but when Will Brock went home to lunch that day he told his wife to unpack; they were not going West; their vacation ’ Was postponed. He was now proprie- tor of the Brock: Candy Co. Making candy became an obsession with him. He loved to see it made, and as fast as it was made he saw to it that it was sold, In fact, he sold it faster than hig plant could manufacture it. So he wondered why; and.found the answer in the antique machinery he had purchased. It-was replaced with modern ma- chinery. Now the factory was stepping faster than the sales force. And so it was to continue until it grew to be the largest candy factory in the South. : “You are spending too much money; you will break this concern, e his partners told him. “I can’t run it any other way,” he replied, ‘suppose you buy me out.” They didn’t do that, but they sold out to him, at. a profit. He had to cover himself all over with debt to make the purchase, but he let some of his friends in on the deal and later bought them out, at a large profit. Then he brought his brothers on from Winston-Salem, and ever since the candy factory has been making gold dollars ag well as cara- mels. Its profits have been turned into other enterprises in Chattanooga, which is also the Chattanooga way, and though all of them have been very successful, Mr. Brock seldom speaks of them. He. wishes to be known always as Brock of the Brock Candy Co. As his fortune grew he became in- terested in every- community enter- prise. Two years after coming to Chattanooga he was made president of the chamber of commerce, and service in that position brought him jn contact with the chief business men and politicians. of the city. Out of-the.former grew his large banking connections, which have resulted in combining the Chattanooga Savings Bank and the Pirst- National Bank... into one of the largest financial in- stitutions in the South, He is its vice president, and when in Chat- tanooga:-is to be found every day at the bank, giving his time without measure to its affairs, His chamber of commerce experi- ence opened his eyes to the possi- bility and importance of politics in the economy of a growing commun- ity. It led- him to-form the program of his life, that it is necessary for every business man, if he would be- come # good citizen, to take an active part in politics. He hes never sought office not preferment; even the sena- torship came to him unbidden. One day, while president of the chamber of commerce, Judge John A. Moon, long a congressman from the Third Tennessee District, came to his office; accompanied ‘by’ John A. Pat- _ ten, president of the -Chattanooga Medicine Co., ie Cates him to man- age the former’s campaign for reelec- tion. “Why don’t you“manage it?” Brock asked John Patten. “Because I am a Republican.” And so it fell out that for four campaigns Brock fan the works for old Judge Moon, and elected his man every time. One reason why Chat- tanooga is Chattanooga is because Democrats and Republicans work to- gether there for the best interests of their comnmiunity. Austin Peay, who was one of the Ax] best governors Tennessee ever had, next drafted Mr. Brock to manage his campaigns, and this was so Ssuc- cessfully done that it gave the man- ager State-wide prominence and in- fluence. He believed in the policies Gov. Peay advocated, and in order to promote them he became the ardent champion of the leader of those causes, When. Gov. Peay died, and Gov. Horton came to the throne, with a pledge to support the Peay policies, Myr. Brock once more took the wheel to steer the Horton bark through the rough waters of Tennessee politics. And that is how he came to be Unit- ed States senator. An idealist and a strict construc- tionist, he writes himself down as a Woodrow Wilson Democrat. Having opposed the political rings that in- fest the several cities of Tennessee, he is ah antimachine Democrat. And being a réligious man and a stanch Methodist, he is a law-abiding citi- zen and wants all the laws enforced. Like his great friend, Claudius L. Huston, ‘he believes in improving the internal waterways of this coun- try, and particularly the Tennessee and. Gumberland Rivers in his State. Aa? Stig veloped “under proper safe-guards of the public interest;” and would ca- nalize the great streams so that they will be open to all-year navigation. The keystone of his political faith, however, is “the introduction of business methods in government.” President Hoover will find no stronger ally to this part of his pro- gram than the new senator from Tennessee, One might mean several things by asserting that he believes in “the in- troduction of business methods in government,” but Mr. Brock means Kellar, also of Tennessee. but one thing—the government of a city, a county, a State or a nation, is simply a business proposition, en- larging as one moves up the grade, but to be handled as business men conduct their private or corporate affairs: ; Just the other day a commnltten of business men called on him and sought t” interest “him~in~a--tariff- schedule. Glancing at his desk, which was covered with law books , and reports of hearings on the tariff and expert analysis of the pending bill, with a few standard works on this complicated subject, the senator shrugged his broad shoulders, and said to his callers, none of whom he knew: “They have loaded me up with literature on the- tariff. I suppose they want me to devote the rest of my life to the study of that question. Fam no tariff expert. I don’t know anything about your product. I am a business man, trained to deal quickly with business problems. Any of you gentlemen lawyers?” There wag no lawyer in the crowd. Very strange! “Now you men ¢0,.0f%.to your.Troom vw of your subject. Fix it up just as if you were going to take it to the bank to get some money on it, or were talking business with a business man. I will read it and then form my own opinion of the merits of your proposi- tion.” Pa They took him at his word and the next day brought it in, the whole matter digested on one sheet of paper, which he could read in five minutes and tell whether it was pure gold or mostly pewter. “I want to see every caller who comes to this office,” he said to his Underwood & Underwood. Senator Brock, left, is welcomed to the Capitol by his fellow lawmaker, Senator Kenneth Mce- private secretary the first day he got to Washington. “But, senator, you can’t do that. It never is done, you know. If you try that, you will break yourself. down, and you will never get time to do any work.” Thus the faithful Maj. Sims, of Tennessee, tried to protect the new senator..Al). .the.same.the office door keeps on swinging open. Thousands of congratulatory telegrams and let- ters came to the farmer boy from Davie, and he personally answered every one of them. In opening his office door to every visitor who asks to see him Senator Brock is simply carrying out the cus- tom of a lifetime. He always saw every visitor who came to the Brock Candy Co. He has never forgotten his friendly neighbors in Davie, nor the simple manner in which he approached his first employer. Not even a tramp has been turned away from the Brock Candy Co. If he asks to see the boss, he gets to see the boss when his turn comes. The ruling passion of the man is religion. He has never forgotten his promise to. his .mether, nor his early Methodist home. “My church comes first with me. Then my business,” he said the other day. He has often gaid that, Nothing is allowed to in- terfere with his church duties. It is also trae that his religion tinctures his business life and colors his poli- tics. No unworthy man, no unwortay cause ever won his allegiance. In this regard as well as because he is the first candy manufacturer to sit in the Senate, he is something of a unique figure. This aketch has been written large- ly from personal knowledge of the man. When I first met him, in 1908, he was selling tobacco. On Sunday he was early at church. He was cap- tain of a team in a young men’s Bible class at Centenary, taught by a baker, and during a membership contest he went out in the highways and by- ways of Chattanooga and picked up every man who had no place to go. Such a herding of the sheep and goats! One Sunday the two teams brought in more than 1,000 strangers, and Brock’s team won the prize. Not for nothing had Richard J. Reynolds trained him in selling tobacco. His famliy is a pioneer Methodist group, going~back to the days when Bishop Asbury was riding the circuit through North Carolina. The Rev. Moses Brock, one of the most famious of the early Methodist preachers, was a brother of his great-grandfather, and every generation of Brocks is told the story of that wonderful old man’s mighty deeds on the circuit and at camp-meeting. From his childhood the senator was taught to emulate the life and character of this great man, so that it is but following the family tradition for him to be active in church work, No Methodist conference in his ter+ ritory meets that he is not there as @ lay delegate; and no general con- ference that he is not there as a legislator. His financial ability was drafted for the board of finance, which is raising the large endowment fund for the old preachers and their widows and orphans. His lack of the normal school ad- vantages that are open to the average © country boy has eaused the senator to interest himself in every . project for providing education for poor boys. We have seen how little opportunity he had to get an education-—two years at the village school and one term of three months at a free school called “Grass Hopper”—but he made the most of such lean chances for book learning: An old commencement pro- gram was unearthed the other day and on it is listed a recitation, “Sell- ing the Farm, by Willie E. Brock.” Prophetic! The University of Chattanooga, the property of the Methodist Episcopal Church, has made William E. Brock, a Southern Methodist, chairman of its board of trustees; and Emory and Henry College in Virginia, the prop- erty. of the Southern Methodist Church, has made him a member.of its board, Into the coffers of both institutions, as well as into the treas- ury of his own church, he has poured without stint of the bounty that has fallen into his lap from his own fe forts. It is said that he has given $100,000 alone to the building of new churches. The senator early had sense enough to marry well. He went to a parsor- age to get his bride, Miss Miriam Acree, daughter of a prominent Bap- tist minister. They have two sons, both following in the footsteps of their father. An old-fashioned Southern gentle- man of good breeding and simple ways is the senator from Davie. A-° modest man withal, humble and un- assumitg, friendly and very approach able. Nobody will ever see him strut- ting down the streets. Last summer he took his wife ana children” back to Davie County to the old farm on which he was born: Some of the neighbors of his childhood were still living on their little farms, Bil James, the farmer who played such a notable part in his rise to fortune, was among the first to greet him.

His. ttle pottery is in ruins, but old Bill still chews tobacco and spits out of the corner of his mouth. “Will, you ain't changed a bit,” said the old man. The neighbors ail echoed that sentiment. .

But here are two exploits of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police I invite my readers to compare with any detec- tive fiction in the setting of a metropolis. Sergt. Hetherington, of the Moun- ties, was loping along on his roan on patrol mear Lacombe, Alta. He was approaching an outlying farm and his thoughts were. pleasantly fore- tasting the first meal he wquid have had for more than ten hours. The peaceful temper of those who till the s0il was the mood of the region, and Hetherington had not for some time had to deal with crimes of violence: Nevertheless his cool gray eyes with the keen look in them of the plains- man and the policeman in one were ranging on their job. His first thought when he caught Sight of a pair of roughly clad legs protruding from a clump of bushes was that a toper was sleeping off his liquor. Hetherington dismounted and parted the bushes for a look. He saw the body of a sandy-haired young man of about 25, the clothing that of a none too prosperous pros- pector for a-manual worker's job. The right temple had been pierced by @ bullet. and in the right hand was clutched a revolver. One shot had been discharged. Was it what it seermed to be—sul- cide? Hetherington looked closely at the wound. There were no powder marks. And Sergt. Hetherington had a murder on his hands to investigate. It was the coroner's business to make the first inquest in such a case, but i¢ would be many precious hours - before the coroner could be brought arid from the looks of the body it @ppeared that days had already gone by since the murder had been com- mitted. Too much time was already lost and Sergt. Hetherington did not Teel Be could afford to waste any more of it on the technicalities of the situation.

There were undoubtedly thousands of vest. buckles stamped “Kalamazoo, Mich.” And thousands of them were probably sewed onto vests bought @nywhere but in Kalamazoo,-Mich. ' Nevertheless, Sergt.

Hethering- ton painted the picture truthfully and enthusiastically, but his enthusiasm ebbed after a week of inquiries by people who wanted to go to Alberta. Only dogged nerseverance kept him at this propaganda. But one day faint promise appeared. A man of middle age who introduced himself as James Smith came to ask Hetherington how he should go about to get news of his stepson, a young man by the name of Leon Stainton. He described him and said that Stain- ton had left Kalamazoo for Alberta _ several months before to look for work there. Smith’s physical description of his stepson interested Hetherington considerably. _ “When did you hear from him last?” Hetherington asked. “Over a month ago,” Smith seid. “And it isn’t like Leon to Keep his mother so long without news of him.” “Did he go to Alberta alone?” “No; I remember him speaking of a miner by the name of ‘Bud’ Bullock. It was from him that Leon got the idea of going out to Alberta, and the two went away together.” Do you know Bullock?” “Never saw him. Leon was to join him in Helena, Mont. From there they went rorth.” “You know anybody who knows Bullock?” “Not a soul.” Hetherington then made the rounds of the hotels in Kalamazoo, inquir- ing of “his friend,” Bud Bullock. Finally he found Bullock’s signature on a hotel register where the man had stayed several days two months before. Nobody in the hotel Knew anything of Bullock except a very hazy recollection of. the man’s 100ks; even on that the two clerks who re- membered Bullock could not agree. For purposes of identification, there- —— fore, Hetherington’s jnquiry brought him almost nothing. But there was the signature on the register. For reasons of his own Hetherington did not want to adver- tise how interested he was in Bul- lock’s handwriting. He lounged about until the hotel clerk left his desk fer some minutes. The moment he did so Hetherington seized a pen, dipped it and went over Bullock’s signature with the fresh ink. Then quickly he pressed a blotter over the writing and put the blotter in his pocket. From the hotel he went to look up James Smith. “From what you’ve told me, Mr. Smith, I think you'd better come back to Alberta with me,” he said. “I hope for your sake that I’m mis- taken. In any event, I hope you won’t tell Leon’s mother—as yet— why you’re going there.” ) Eventually, however, Mrs.. Smith had to be told. Her husband identi- fied beyond doubt his stepson in the body Sergt. Hetherington had found on his patrol. ‘Leon Stainton was taken back to his home and Sergt. Hetherington set out once more along the wisp of trail that might or: might not lead him to Leon’s murderer, a trail no broader than the scratch of a pen. = = * * | gpavres one hotel in Alberta to an- other Hetherington went, con- ning hotel registers for a handwriting that should resemble the coarse copy on the blotter he carried with him everywhere he went. But the search brought him nothing but wasted - days, each day so much headstart for the murderer. ba nw" ~~ = “I feel foot holes in bottom.” With little in all this to encourage him Hetherington, started out on a still broader search. Bud Bullock was a miner, James Smith had said. So Hetherington began a search of mining regions from Michigan. to the mountains, in the United Stat@és and in Canada. Here was a search calculated to plant despair in the heart of the most dogged Scotland Yard manhunter, and despair undoubtedly must have crept into Hetherington’s spirit as the weeks went by, then months, with many mines visited in vain and many more yet to visit; with seemingly countless hotel registers and pay rolls, to be scrutinized and compared; num- berless signatures, an endless proces- sion of names. For, of course, Hetheringten did not expect Bud Bullock to register at a hotel or sign a pay roll with his right name. There was only the blotter copy, therefore, for Hetherington to compare with the innumerable signa- tures he examined. : More than once the Mounty on foot, bending over a mining pay roll, thought he detected similarities in some scrawled bit of writing to that on his precious blotter. More than once he waited in the background for the suspect to reveal himself. Each time the quiet investigation Hether- ington began ended only in futility and an increasing sense of defeat. But in the more rugged days of his service as a Mounty Hetherington had had to plod through hundreds of miles of blizzard and freezing weather —hed to plod on or perish.

Back in the United States, Hether- ington found himself combing the mines of Montana. He was drawing on sheer doggedness now, making his inquiries at the mines and scrutiniz- ing their registers and pay rolls me- chanically, much as & man works on a routine job long after his mind has gone to sleep. Then one day he brightened some- whet at the sight of the way Henry Jones, & miner, signed his Dade Hetherington did not have to look at his blotter now; for a-long time Bud Bullock’s signature was the one image the Mounty had in his mind. And with the first stir of hope he had felt for a long time Hetherington asked where Henry Jones could be found. “You'll find him usually at the Starbottle bar after work,” he was told. That evening Hetherington, in work-worn civies, looked on with in- terest at a crap game in the Starbot- tle saloon. Particularly he was in- terested in a stocky, wiry miner with a hardbitten face, keen, shifty eyes, too closely set together, the look in them especially unprepossessing as they watched his money dwindling away on a tide of bad gambling luck, The more he lost the. oftener the miner called for whisky; and the more he drank the uglier his temper grew. Several times he snarled ac- cusations at the other players, and once his: hand moved tentatively in back of him. By the end of the evening all his *,% es ' oe & | y : money was gone and his credit ex- - hausted. Growling something which though unheard was expressive enough, the miner finally left the saloon. s e * * © absorbed was he in hating the world as he hurried ome that he did not pay any attention to foot- steps behind him until a strong hand gripped his shoulder. “I want to talk to you,” he heard a man’s voice, “Bud Bullock!” Out of the Mounty’s grasp Bullock whirled. A fist, the left, shot fast and hard at the Mounty’s face, while the right hand reached for a back pocket. But a body strong and quick even in recruit days and hardened, quick- ened by the most arduous police pa- trolling in the world, hurled itself at Bullock and knocked him spinning, toppling to the ground, his revolver flying, » his hands fast in a grip he could not break. A little later cold steel replaced that grip. The suddenness with which it had all come on top of a disheartening losing streak at cards affected Bul- lock as an edict of fate. Dice and men were against him and he had no more heart left wherewith to gamble . that his captor might not have enough prent to send him to the sant lows. “I always knew you damned Moun- ties would get me in the end!” he said, drearily. Hetherington warned Bullock that anything he would say might be held against him at the trial for the mur- der of Leon Stainton. “Well, what of it?” Bullock said, de- jectedly. “If you didn’t have the goods on me you wouldn’t have caught up to me. You know I killed that kid!” “Why?” “A hundred and seventy dollars is a lot to a man who is down on his luck, out of a job and thirsty for liquor and craps. The kid had it in his jeans, and I wanted the money. He wouldn’t give it up peacefully, so I plugged ‘him and left him in the bushes.” That $170 cost Bullock his life on the gallows, and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police had spent much money in running him down.

Also, if Sandfly were really murdered, whatever trail the guilty may have left of their deed and their departure was probably washed away by mow, for in the Northwest domain of the Mounties one hunts men much as one hunts four-footed game—by the trails they leave underfoot. The half-breed impressed the police with his story and an inspector set Off on horseback with him. It was strenuous riding all the way to Lac Ste. Anne and from there to Island Lake. The spring equinox that year made weather history for the region and the two riders got the full brunt of it all. Cloudburst followed cloud- burst. Brooks became yellow torrents. Trees toppled right and left. What was solid earth ordinarily gave way until the horses floundered in swamp up to their bellies. By the time the inspector’ anc his guide reached Island Lake tle region was 50 awash with the weather that anything short of stone had been part melted away; sharp ledges: about the lake were now slopes streaming wita rain and mud; well-worn trails were obliterated; the very daylight was blurred with rain and clouds. What hope was there of finding foot trails left of a crime that may have been committed two weeks before? Nevertheless the inspector set to work. He called for Sandfiy’s brother, Pierre, a youth of 18, as the one who had seen his missing brother last. The inspector studied the youth as he questioned him. He saw in him @& product of the good side of race mix- ing. Pierre had all the Indians’ sen- sibility for reading the subtlest mes- Sage on the face of the physical world with which he lived. And he had the white man’s more complicated mental processes to supplement his intelli- gence as an Indian. Pierre told the Inspector that he last saw his brother in Sandfly’s own shack with two other half-breeds, Joaquin and Kammekowgat. Pierre had left the three early one morning and had seen none of them since then. When he went back to his brother’s shack he found it wrecked by the rainstorms. The fact that Sandfly had not at once taken shelter with Pierre and the rest of the family made them umeasy. Joaquin and Kammekowgat had been seen once or twice since then in the neighborhood, but Pierre had not been able to find them. Those who had seen them however, brought rumors of heavy drinking in Sand- _ fly’s lodge on the day Pierre had last seen him; and the impression left by the two half-breeds was that they had quarreled with their host. > «+ 8 ®& wrt the skies unremitting with downpour and with precious time already lost, the tnigpector had to work in several directions at the same time. There was of course as yet to be found the first proof of murder—the body. And there were Joaquin and Kam- mekowgat to be found and held for questioning, if Sandfiy was alive, for murder if he was dead—provided his body were found, murder established and their guilt indicated. ‘ The inspector engaged men to search for the living while he and Pietre began the hunt for the dead—. if Sandfly were dead. The young half-breed took the imspector to. a willow grove where the home of Sandfiy lay. a sodden wreck. Care- fully the two examined the ruin. - From the start the inspector ad- mitted Pierre to a basis of equality in equipment for. the investigation. They had to @etermine whether all the violence evidenced by the wreck had been brought about by the storm. Bit by bit, by the most sensi- tive kind of observation and shrewd reasoning, they came to, the conclu- _gion that even before wind and rain had taken a hand there may have been commotion in Sandfiy’s shack. Dark stains on furniture and ' planking might mean either blood or rain-soaked dirt. A chair and a table might have been broken by the col- lapse of the shack or in the fight. One of Sandfiy’s shirts, found torn to @ rag, may have meant either vio- lence or the wear and tear of ordi- nary rough usage. With nothing absolutely conclusive found in the wrecked shack the in- spector and Pierre were forced to search outside for further progress. The shack was located in a depres- sion of the willow grove and the ground in front of it streamed with the teeming rain. “Pierre, take off your shoes,” said the inspector. Pierre did so, not sensing at first the meaning of the strange sugges- tion. “Now take you? position as if you were leaving your brother’s door- way. Carefully feel with your toes along the ground and see what you can find out.” Pierre followed instructions and with his back to what was once the door to the shack he began to feel his way with his toes. The water sluicing down the sides of the little valley of willows came up to his ankles. Slowly, sensitively, he moved forward, inches at a time. After he had progressed several yards he looked wp. “Foot trail here very much deep,” he said. “Like some one carrying something heavy.” “Follow along,” said the inspector. It took the two well over an hour to cover 400 yards of the suppositious ‘ trail from the door of the shack to a rail fence that bounded Sandfly’s little domain. Here the two men knelt and closely examined the fence at the point where Pierre’s toes had ‘brought up. < /In the gathering dark it was im- ° : possible to tell wither the stainéd ‘ fence rails indicated anything but the effect of rain. Suddenly, however, Pierre, who. was feeling the fence with his fingers, uttered an exclama- tion. “Give me your hand, inspector!’ Pierre brought the inspector’s fin- Then his fingertips sensed a delicate strand of something that was not wood fiber.

About the middle of July, 1849, he reached Richmond. He wrote to Mrs. Clemm that both of his lectures had been stolen from his valise in Philadelphia. A warm welcome was given Poe by old ‘friends in the Virginia capital, his lectures being well attended and much interest was displayed in The Stylus Magazine plam.

This time the two men, spurred by increasing hope and the need for speed, made straight for the shore of the lake. ' The trail brought them toacrudely constructed little landing stage where, Pierre told the inspector, Sandfly had ordinarily kept his canoe. But they spied the canoe on the shore a hundred yards to the south of the landing stage. : Supposing that Sandfly had been dragged to the landing stage and thrown into the water there, Pierre and the inspector stripped and wad- ing out began a diving search for 2 body all about the end of the land- ing. But strenuous as their efforts were nothing came of it but tempo- rary exhaustion of their strength and apparently the end of their trail. With his first recovered breath-the inspector said: “We'll take a look at the canoe.” The slight birchbark craft had been’ left on. the shore ‘and had been full ’ of rainwater for days." ‘The canoe emptied furnished no ‘visible clew: But the inspector asked Pierre, “Why should the canoe be here in- stead of at the landing stage where it belongs?” Pierre could offer no explanation based on his brother’s habits. “Then let’s see if there’s anything around the canoe that will tell us . something,” said the inspector. “Feel t for footprints, Pierre!”’ more Pierre used his toes as. tentacles of intelligence and reported that a trail began at the canoe and led in the direction of the road that girdled the lake some twenty yards from its shoreline. There Pierre lost the trail in the multiplicity of prints made by the ee That evening Hetherington, in work-worn civies, looked on with interest at a crap game in the many men and horses who had trod- den the road around Island Lake. “Back to the canoe then,” the in- spector said. “Whoever left the canoe where it is must have landed there from the lake. This time we'll see if the lake will tell us anything.” Pierre looked at the Mounty officer in wonder. Did the inspector expect to read anything in the turbulent face of the waters? “Start from the canoe, Pierre, and carefully wade out,” the inspector ordered. _ Pierre did as he was told and al- most at once called out. “I feel foot holes in bottom!” He was standing in six inches of water when he said this. “Then fit your own feet into them,” the inspector called. Very carefully Pierre felt around with his toes for the perimeter of the footprints under the water and took the position they indicated. To his surprise he found his back was t the shore. ‘Puzzled he looked up at the Inspector. “You can swim, of course Pierre? Well, I mean?” the inspector asked. “Yes.” “Then walk as far as the footprints will take — . °* pues reed forward, feeling his way. The lake bottom sloped only gradually for some twenty feet out. Suddenly Pierre dropped out of sight. When he came up again he swam back to the edge of the shelf from whicht he had fallen.

Half an hour after he had left Pierre he was back at the shore again with several men and seven 15-foot poles. With the most experienced of the men the inspector got into the canoe and was paddled out to where Pierre marked the end of the shelf. Here a search was begun at the . lake bottom with the aid of the poles. Inside of half an hour one of the men, probing with the pole he held, exclaimed : “I feel body!’’ “Hold it!” Pierre and two others dove off into the water. A little later they rose, bearing a burden between them. In Sandfiy’s back stuck the horn handle of a hunting knife. In the settlement again the in< spector drafted practically the whole male population and sent them, spurred by the prospect of many dol- lars’ reward, out over the country to reinforce the hunt for Joaquin and Kammekowgat. By dawn of the day following the inspector’s arrival at the scene of the crime the two half-breeds were brought in, bound and heavily guard- ed, but utterly impassive and une communicative. Whatever they might know of the cause of their predica- ment pleinly they meant to keep to themselvés. The inspector had the . missing body. Aside from the knife in Sand- fly’s back—-a common article that might, belong to any ome in the re- gion—what conclusive proof wags there against either of the men ar- rested? * » * 2 was a somber scene which broad- ening daylight showed in a settle- ment room where the inquest over Sandfly was being held. On a table lay the body of Sandfly. From his back still protruded the hunting knife. On one side of the table stood the local coroner and the Inspector of the Royal Canadian Mounted Po- lice. Between them, with the face of,an accuser, was Pierre. On the other side of the table were the two suspects, still sullen, silent, defiant. The inspector was sharpening a lead pencil and carefully conserving the powdered grephite on a’ bit of paper. “Bring them over here,” he told the prisoners’ guards. Joaquin and Kammekowgat were then put through a process utterly mysterious to every one in the room but the coroner. The Inspector was taking their fingerprints with the aid of the graphite. Then borrowing the coroner’s spec- tacles, he used one of the lenses as a magnifying glass. He looked from the fingerprints of the two men to the handle of the hunting Knife. Sud- denly he seemed to find conclusive evidence. “Fingers leave trails more telltale than feet,” he said, addressing the men he had fingerprinted. “No two men in the world leave the same fin- gerprints.” He paused to let the fact sink in. Then he proceeded sternly, “Joaquin Kammekowgat! Will you confess that you murdered Sandfly; that you dragged him over the hill to the landing stage; that you put his body in the canoe; that you threw ‘it into the water just at the edge of the shelf on the bottom of the lake; that your canoe upset when you did so, and that you had to drag the ca- noe back to shore? Will you confess and receive consideration from the judge when he imposes sentence? Or will you defy the court and take your chances of being hanged?” Had the two accused men been more sophisticated.in-crime.and the chem- istry of fingerprints they might have taken a chance and defied the inspec- tor and” thé courts’ to find finger- prints on a knife handle that had been itn the water for days. But the whole mysterious business of finger- prints on top of an apparently dee tailed knowledge of the crime pose sessed by the inspector struck fear in the hearts of the two men and broke down their defenses. They confessed that they had slain . Sandfly in the turmoil of a drinking . bout in his shack, but not until he had put up a terrific struggle. Then they wrecked the shack and let the storm finish the havoc. The rest of the story was as the inspector and Pierre had pieced it out. And to.the reputation of the Royal ‘Canadian Mounted Police was added another success: no less a wreath of

Ts Washingtonian who does not T_ ramvie away from the beaten paths into the outskirts and suburbs occasionally misses a great deal. No city in America has a great- er variety of interesting people. Those who remain about the traffic centers, the Capitol, and the down- town districts seldom come in con- tact with the students of nature, the real philosophers and the enter- taining recluses who dwell- on the fringes of the city. If one would enjoy life to the full- est here, he must mix with -the down-and-outs.as well as those who, for the time being, are riding the “waves of prosperity and brilliant success. In the District of Columbia it is mot a far cry from the high and mighty to the fellow at the other end of the ladder, for in this. politi- cal center one may be up today and down tomorrow; that is part of the political game and those who play it know full well the risks they take. Old timers will recall years before the World War, when the parks of Washington teemed with offcast Re- publican Government employes, turned out by the influx of Demo- crats whose turn it was to stand at the pie counter, - The army of chair warmers had suddenly increased. Whén the Wilson Democrats came into power in 1913 there st*l re- mained in Washington hundreds of men who had journeyed here to ac- cept positions under the Cleveland administration. The Republicans, when they ousted the Cleveland Democrats, had taken over all of the jobs, and many of those who lost out lingered to pick up what crumbs they could. The leaders of the Wilson regime were surprised to see so many of the old Cleveland followers among those seeking employment, some of them grizzled, worn and threadbare. At the close of the Wilson adminyg istration hungry Republicans stepped forward and shoved the Democrats to one side. This change sent another group to the ‘parks and out-of-way places, all nursing the hope that soon the worm would turn; took up the G. O. P. political faith in an effort to hold on. One morning as.I walked into a truck- -farming, neighborhood I came upon a stout, perspiring plowman, who was breaking ground for spring vegetables. To my surprise he called me by name, and welcomed me to his ‘patch. I was very much puzzled—his face was familiar, but I could not call his name. “I used to see you at the House Office Building,” said the man. “While the Democrats were in contro] I was an elevator conductor, but two months ago I was let out and, not having meney enough to get back to my home in the South, I rented this little field and am going to become a grucker.” There are many such, some of them doing better than when their political friends were on top. _This Man said be knew if he- waited for the Demo- crats to come back, he would starve.

The increased demand: for laborers of all kinds during the, World War proved a ‘great blessing for many men who had been out of work for years. The crowds that were wont to fre- quent the parks thinned and never were recruited.

One of the real delights of tramp- ing in these out-of-the-way places, particularly for a person born on a cotton plantation, is the contact he may have with some of the few re- maining slavery-time Negroes, who say “dis,” “dat,” and “t’other” with refreshing glibness.

Not long ago, while traveling a by- path out of Georgetown, I came upon a tumbled-down cabin, far removed. » from the madding throng, and “al- most out of sound Of an automobile.

I ‘moved out here ‘cause I des couldn’t.. stan’ de racket in town.” Feeling that I was on safe ground, I sat down and conversed with the old man First. 1. confessed that I came from Dixie—that helped me to get on with. him. In the course of the talk the old fellow used “goin’” and “gwine,” and I asked him about the difference in these words, ‘meaning “going.” I had heard other Negroes say “goin’”- and “gwine.” “Well, boss, you done stump me “I knows the difference, but I ain’t no’ scollard.

The old. man illustrated his explanation by moving his right hand gently and grad-ally from him for -“goin’” .and quickly and ee away for “gwine.” ‘I remained there for more than an hour, bits of folklore and superstitions that I had heard in days long gone by. The old man reminded me that if @ baby was sickly during its teething period, a simple remedy would drive away the ailment... He said that when he was a child his mother tied a bag of mole’s feet around his neck, and he grew strong and husky. He explained that his*parents caught a ‘ground-mole, oné ‘of’ the ‘littlé ones that ‘roots up a yard or*gardefy, killed lilm, cut of his front feet,’ sewed delightfully entertained with © them in a tiny bag, linked it about his nece with a thread, and it re- mained there for a year or longer, That is not a new theory, it has been practiced for years, not only by Negroes, but by some white families I have never heard a satisfactory explanation of it, however. My colored friend said that the mole’s feet drew the poison out of the baby’s system. On that particular day his mind was running to sigus, good and bad. He said that the crowing of a chicken hen was the sign of death, and he never permitted one to remain on his place after she committed the offense. He told me that the Bible damned such hens. The crowing of a rooster, on the walkway leading to the front door, was the sign of com- pany. The old Negro said that when his wife. heard the rooster’s clarion call at the doorstep, she would either chase him away or prepare dinner for visitors. Dropping the dish rag, he added, was another sure sign that company was on the way. A third sign was the taking of butter when the person who took it already had butter. Other signs are: Jf a red bird, a cardinal, comes in sight the one who sees him is going to see his, or her, sweetheart that day. The Negro said a sure sign of death “ts the crawling of a dog on his back. If one of. his hounds so far forgets himself as to turn on his back, with feet in the air, and wiggle back and forth, he is in danger of being hit with a brickbat; that sort of per- formance is unpopular for it is be- lieved that the dog is — a grave. 4 Another terrible omen is the arriv- al of a wild bird in a dwelling. If the bird flies in the door or window, every one in the house is in danger, for such an incident is a sign of death. The old negro also said that if, in- planting a field of truck, a tiller overlooked one row or hill, he would be certain to have a death in his family that .year. I had heard every one of these signis before but they slipped out of my. mind. This old man had as many of them as Victor Hugo mentions in his “Toilers of the Sea.” While talking to the Negro I heard a commotion among the birds ina strip of woods nearby.

We.adjourned our meeting and went up the hill to see - what troubled our feathered friends. As we approached we could distin- _ guish the infuriated outcries of crows, purple grackles, mockers, wrens, jays and others. Hundreds of highly ex- ‘cited birds were darting about the tops of a tall. wild cherry tree, scream-_— ing and scolding. The more daring, with glaring cres and fixed beaks, were flying straight at a black snake about four feet long that had climbed the tree and was approaching a nest of tiny rebins. ..The mother bird had sent out a distress call, and all her neighbors responded: to the common cause for her babies: For an hour the battle of the cherry ._ tree raged and would have continued int6 the night had not the old man gone for his trusted rifle and shot the | intruder..

And this holds particular significance for -Washingtonians in that the United States National Museum here is fortunate in having acquired exceptionally interesting relics of this great humanitarian. When. visiting the Arts and In- dustries Museum one may seé some of Dr. Morton’s most treasured personal ef- fects, aS well as the only complete Morton .Ether Inhaler known to ex- -ist, and a bronze bust of this great man by Helen FParnsworth Mears, who was also sculptor of the Frances Wil- lard statue in the Capitol. Miss Mears. had the distinction of being an assistant to the great Saint Gau- dens, and her work on the bust of Dr. Morton speaks eloquently for her skill. It was here in Wasliington ‘that a major part of the famous ether con- troversy took place. All tongues buzzed and discussed Morton and his discovery. Some jeered while. others . marveled. And,.as usual, claimants appeared from every direction, each determined to prove himself the first to have penetrated the mysteries of ether. Daniel Webster, then here as Secretary of State, sympathized with Morton’s cause, while Congress pub- licly proclaimed ‘him to be the right- ful discoverer. Another national, celebrity, a fanious writer and physi- ‘Clan, entered the story in. the person of Oliver Wendell Holmes. His lively interest in the ether discovery result- ed in bis having the honor of nam- ing it—“anesthesia.” But to take up the main thredd of the ether story. From the very dawn of science it had been the earnest desire of the medical profession to perform operations without. pain. In the works of ancient writers. we read of insensibility. to pain being ob- tained by means of Indian hemp, either smoked or taken into the stomach. More than 1,500 years ago, the Chinese used a preparation. ef hemp to annul pain. The Greeks and Bomans sought @, temperary oblivion ith , mandragorg.;, Many ; surgeogs made their patients,“drini *before operating. Some found that Intense cold produced partial insensibility; others resorted to mesmerism and hypnotism. But it was not until the end of the eighteenth century. that scientists. Thterested’ in the marvel- ous discoveries:of. Priestly, began to study the properties of vapors and gases more closely. A few physicians seemed to be aware of the value of the vapor of sulphuric ether for pro- ducing ‘anesthetic effects, Hut appar- ently they thought only of this as an idle curiosity to be used in a classroom experiment, for no one at- tempted to make a practical applica- , tion. of ether to prevent the pain of an operation untij, 1846, when Mor- ton, the young, obscure dentist, per- formed his famous. experiment in his little. office up in Boston, thereby making the world forever his debtor. The earlylife_of. this public pbene- factor is uneventful enough. The son of a country storekeeper and farmer, hé .was “born in Chariton; Worcester. County, Mass., on August 18, 1819. - After receiving an ordinary school education, he became a clerk in his father’s store. Magnetic and persua- sive, from the outset Morton seemed to be forging ahead, and would have studied. medicine, but for the fact that his father did not-have enough money t@ gratify this wish. When 21. yeara old, however, he managed to attend the Baltimore Dental Col- lege, which had. just opened, and after receiving his diploma entered into partnership with a Dr. Horace Wells to practice dentistry in Bos- ton. After an unprofitable year they separated and Morton opened an of- fice by himself. The next year, find- ing his practice most successful, he realized his life’s ambition by begin- ning the study of medicine at Har-. vard Medical School, continuing during his work there the practice of his profession.

It was as a result of his discovery ef a new way of inserting artificial teeth that Morton turned to the study of the production.of anesthesia. Form- erly, the artificfal teeth had been soldered upon a gold plate, the latter being placed directly over the fangs of the old teeth. Since there were several objectional features toe this method of procedure, Morton devised a new way of doing the work. He re- moved the old fangs. The suffering of his patients made such a tremen- dous impression upon him that he became obsessed with the idea of find- ing a substance which would do away with their pain. Day and night he turned the problem over in his mind. One day he tried applying ether locally ald he found that it benumbed the part. This started him upon his re- searches on the subject. The idea seized him: That if the influence of ether could be diffused over the sys- tem, the pais of surgical operations might be ended. But how was this to be done? Obviously, it seemed im- possible to immerse the. whole body im ether as be had a tooth, There 1s no doubt. that Morton gaperimented— to the nth ‘aberes with sulphuric ether in quest of his object, and that for'a long time he was aware of the fact that that substance contained prop- Louis Johrden, Post Staff. The Morton inhaler, the first used to administer ether, now in the National } useum,,. erties which might be put to use in producing anesthesia. Just when he was pondering over this question, there came to his office in the spring of 1846-a-young..dental , student, Thomas R. Spear, jr. At Mor- ton’s mention of anesthesia, Spear told him that as a student at Lexing- ton' Academy he had amused himself by inhaling ether. Excited by the young man’s conversation, Morton secretly continued upon his researches with more eagernesg than ever, and after performing a series of experi- ments upon insects, fish and dogs, he determined to inhale the ether him- self. In his memoir to the Academy of Arts and Sciences, at Paris, hé describes the experiment upon him- self and one upon a patient in this manner: “Taking the tube and flask, I shut myself up in my room, seated myself ir the operating chair, and com- menced inhaling. I found the ether so strong that it partially suffocated me, but produced no decided effect. I then saturated my handkerchief and inhaled it from that, I looked at my watch and soon lost conscious- meas. As I recovered, I felt a numb- ness in. my limbs, with ® sensation Itke nightmare, and .would have thesia given the world ‘for some one to comé and arouse me, I»thought for a mo- ment I should die in that state, and the world would only pity or ridicule my folly. At length I felt a alight tingling of the blood in the end of my third finger, and made an effort to touch it with my thumb, but without success. At a second effort, I touched it, but there seemed to be no sensation. I gradually raised my arm, and pinched my thigh but I could see that sensation was imper- fect. I attempted to rise from my chair, but fell back. Gradually I re- gained power over my limbs and found that I had been insensible between seven and eight minutes. “Delighted with the success of this experiment, 1 immediately announce ed the result to the persons employed in my establishment, and waited im-« patiently for some one upon whom I could make a fuller trial. Toward evening a man residing in , Boston came in, suffering great pain, and wishing to have a tooth extracted. He was afraid of the operation and asked if he could be mesmerized. I told him I had something better, and saturating my -handkerchief, gave -it to him to inhale. He became uncon- scious almost immediately. It was dark, and Dr, Hayden held the lamp while I extracted a firmly-rooted bi- cuspid tooth... There was not much alteration in the pulse and no relax- ing of the muscles. He recovered in @ minute and knew nothing of what had been done for him. He remained for some time talking about the ex- periment. This was on the 30th of September, 1846,” The first: public notice of thig ex- periment,‘ which appeared in the Bos- ton Dally Journal, attracted the at- tention of Dr. Henry J. Bigelow who straightway visited Morton’s office and was present at many successful in- halations of ether by the new method in which teeth were extracted without pain. The experiment so impressed Dr. Bigelow that he seconded Morton in his desire to have a public demon- stration of the discovery and it was through him that Dr. John C. Wafren, senior surgeon of the Massachusetts Genéral Hospital, was induced to try the new method in a surgical opera- tion. The date set for the demon- stration was October 16, 1846. At’ the.appointed time Dr. Warren and the patient, a young man by the ndine of Gilbert ‘Abbott ‘wére ready in ‘tie’ ‘amphitiidater of the hospital. Evety member of the surgical staff ab well ag students from the medical! school were present. All was in readi- nees; nothing was lacking—except the presence of Morton himself! A quar- ter of an hour ticked away and still there was no sign of Morton. Dr. Warren then turned to the audience and in an I-told-you-so manner, dryly commented, “As Dr. Morton hag not arrived, I presume he its otherwise engaged.” The sneer in his words was not lost upon the spectators. And then, just as he was about to make the first incision, Morton hurried inte the room. It seems that at the last moment he had been delayed by re- pairs upon his inhaler. The spectators looked on in utter amazement. Never before had they witnessed such a sight. At first the patient became exhilarated, but when he grew quiet and the audience real- ized that he was unconscious, there was surprise manifest on every face. Within five minutes the surgeon had completed his-work.. The operation— it was for a tumor on the side of the patient’s neck—was successful; and when he recovered he marveled that he. had felt no pain. Turning to those present Dr. Warren enthusias- tically announced in a loud voice, “Gentlemen, this is no humbug.” Surgical anesthesia, America’s greatest contribution to medical science, had become the priceless heritage of the civilized world! It is interesting to note in con- ngction with this first public demon. stration of the use of ether as an anesthetic in an operation that Dr. Warren, who was operating, was not aware of the nature of the substance employed by Morton. This means that upon Morton elone rested the responsibility for its use. If the patient had died under this operation it would have meant the end of Mor- ton’s practice, the loss of his prestige ia’ his: profession; w undoubtedly for CONTINUED ON PAGE 19, COLUMN. 1

Her mother is impractical and content to live on credit while she talks about the past glories of the family. At the annual Rodeo, Pam meets Chester Hilliard, promising young man who has come to town to work in his uncle’s bank. They fall in love immediately. One night they go out for a drive, the car runs out of gas, they are ma- rooned in a shack all night. Mrs. Broome, mother of Pam’s friend Maisie, finds out about it, and Pam finds herself in_ disgrace. Ostracised by her friends, she grows bitter. Chester Hilliard swears his loyalty, but he is taken back into the old crowd, and soon begins to lose interest in Pam. The Raleigh family is forced to leave the old family home and live in a cheap apartment. Pam gets a job as a sort of housekeeper on the Molino Ranch. Gregory Card, owner of the Molino, is in love with Pam,.though she does mot know it. His grandmother and cousin, Col. Charteris, come to visit and take a strong liking to Pam. Old Mrs. Chard learns of the girl’s unhappiness and de- cides to give a party for the elite of Carterbridge. Everyone is nice to Pam. Maisie is to be married and invites Pam to the wedding. Chester makes love to her all over again, and -her happiness seems complete. But at the end of the party Sue Rose Catherwood, one of her old friends, tells Pam that she and Chester Hilliard are en- gaged. This blow almost breaks Pam, but she conceals ‘her emo- tion. Greyvury Chard, who knows of her . disillusionment, is very kind and considerate. Pam goes to Carterbridge for Maisie’s wed- ding, determined to win Chester back by any method. She suc- ceeds and Chester becomes more infatuated with her than ever, but his love no longer moves her. CHAPTER XXXVIII (Continued). “J know how you feel,” he said. “And I agree with you. But this is® an exceptional case, Pam. You'll be off to the ranch in a day or two, any- way, and then—unless I can slip away . down there occasionally, which I don’t much enjoy—we'll have nothing at all. You see, I hate those people! I loathe that grinning, lazy-voiced Eng- lishman who thinks he’s so damned superior, and Jessy says the old lady — is nothing but a mischief maker— says she’s ‘stirred up enough mud—or says she will—to_ ruin the town.’ Pamela was staring at him, her head up, her cheeks scarlet. “You don’t mean Col.

Chester looked at her quickly, and she saw his jaw stiffen a little. “How do you mean not true, you bad girl?” he asked lightly. “I mean that you and I needn’t have separated—as a matter of fact, we didn’t, until I felt you—didn’t care,"’. she said steadily. yet with dif- ficulty. “Not that we really can tell ple the truth!” she added, after.a moment.

Pamela’s heart quailed. “It’s just come to me—I didn’t sleep all night, worrying about it— but it’s clear now!" It’s just——” She took her hands from his shoulders and made her favorite little spread- ing gesture of freedom. “It’s just over,” she said simply. The man’s mouth was firmly closed; the flanges of his nostrils moved on his stormy breath. “That's Charteris,” he presently said briefly, when he and Pamela.had stood regarding each other for a long space of silence. “Col. Charteris! He must be almost 40!” the girl said with a cool, scorn- ful laugh. “He’'s37,.that’s all. I- asked Chard last summer. And believe me,” Ches- ter said fiercely “he’s in love with you—any fool can see that!” “You must be a fool to imagine it!” Pamela said warmly. She stood, struck with the utter novelty of the thought, considering it for a minute. “He just —likes me,” she said uncertainly. “I'll -say~-he-just—likes_you!" Chester agreed satirically. But Pamela’s confused thoughts were too absorbed to leave her free to notice him She caught her lower lip in her teeth and stared absent-mind- edly into space, thinking, pondering. “That’s nonsense!”’. she said pres- ently. as if she were»~elieved. “He's hopelessly crippled—he never thought of such a thing. .And F simply don’t want to marry anv one—that’s. all. That's all it is, Chester, and I’m sorry.” ‘ “Then yesterday down at the ‘sta- tion, when we talked in the car, and last night at the Arms—that was just flirting?” he asked, with an air of cornering her. The scarlet color dyed her cheeks again, but she looked bravely into his eyes. “I guess go.’ Chester was silent for a few min- utes, staring out of the window into the thickening dus: and fog. . “You've made it nice for me,” he said bitterly when Pamela, unabit.to bear the silence any longer, had gofie back ta her chair and: “sighed 60 come sched tie Ae that the sound of it: reac ai Ww... 4 “Oh, agp: shia "Ghasiay 4 know.

But this I do. know, that whatever was between you and me—” She. stopped, her coaxing, beautiful face appealingly raised to his own, eyebrows and smile eloquent when her words failed. Chester laughed mirthlessly. “And you think it can be settled like that?” Pamela's heart gave another little twist of fear. “Mustn’t it be? You don’t want me on any other. terms, do you?” she asked. “I want you on any terms,” he said huskiiy. ~- “Qh, no, Chester,” she pleaded. “Just now you do, perhaps, when we've been flirting for 48 hours—I blame myself for that.

And all the passion and fury for which she had ever longed were there at last, in his face. “I love you, yOu cruel, wonderful thing!” he said. “I'll kill you and myself before Charteris gets you, and think nothing of it! Ill have you, Pamela, if it takes me ten years to win you back again. -You did love me—in those days last winter when we wrote down the lst of ‘liabili- ties’ and ‘assets’—in the old house.” “Oh, don’t!” she said, near tears at the memory of that despairing girl, who had longed for this man’s love, and lain awake through: bitter nights of pain, hoping for it. “You see!” he said triumphantly, seeing that he had stirred her. “Why, these are my eyes, this ‘s my darling head of curls, you are’ my girl!

When she went down the Scarletts, husband and wife, were relating their adventures, and Gregory and Char- ris and the old lady were atten- ve and amused listeners. “Have her leg fixed up?” Gregory was asking of some mare. . “Oh, yes, senor, sure,” Scarlett said. “She'll go lame, huh?” “"Twasn’t nothing but a scratch, Greg,” said: Mrs. Scarlett, a rouged, hard-faced little person, with sloe- black hair in a club on her neck. “We eft Buster there to come down with the cattle,” she added, “and I yelled >. you,” she said. night without my, baby, didn’t.

There was 4 silence. Gregory continued to play with the poker; he did not look up. “Tt gather,” Charteris saiG. presently. “that we are not to know what this trouble is.” “Oh, I'll probably tell you. the whole thing, as soon as we are alone together!” Pamela said, with an ex- cited, rueful little laugh. And as her eyes bent to his, she remembered Chester’s absurd suspicions, and the color crept into her face, until there was a blaze of satin red poppies under the wide-open, smiling gray eyes and the thatch of tawny hair. Their look clung together, and she thought that he was conscious, too; thought that she saw his bronzed, hard skin darken. Apparently Gregory did not see anything; he had not stirred, and the old lady was half asleep. “w-What!”’ Pamela stammered then. “I said, ‘Any time you say,’ Char- teris repeated it smiling. Her heart began to beat hard and fast. Why—why—he seemed more like a father. Why—why. —he was twenty—or no, it was only sixteen or seventeen years older than she. But Robert Charteris was of another generation, and in experience and culture and character and posi- tion she had always felt him far, far above her. “Some one making love to you, was that the trouble?” Gregory said un- expectedly, in his new, easy, half- amused and half-scornful manner. She sent a glance toward Char- teris. “You're a good guesser,” she said. “An old beau of mine.” Gregory -said nothing for a while. Then he drawled, in the smoocth, enh Latin voice he occasionally used “I thought girls liked that. I didn’t know that would be called ‘trouble,’ exactly.” It was .Charteris she was trying to amuse; he loved to hear her half- earnest, half-whimsical confidences. But she had not mednt to go quite so-far.. Some odd impulse pushed her on against her own will. “Not when you don’t want to marry a person,” she said, “and have told him so many times, and are afraid— you will!” Gregory glanced up now, and she saw the dark ig mi the dark face, and the flash of t “Oh, I didn't Kpow.”” he said mildly,, : ‘returning to the re “And did he—this admirer—wétry you, Pamela?” Charteris said affec- tionately, indulgently, after a while. “Oh, yes—he made me cry,” ‘she _ answered, “mood. “You don’t know how I wanted to get home tonight!” . “Home?” Gregory sald with a quick glance, take nawares “Here,” she explained. “And nice to have you, little girl,” Charteris said. “We've missed you. I’m glad the fleshpots weren’t quite so charming as you thought. they would be.” “A man,” Gregory said conversation- ally, lazily, in a pause, “should never ask one woman twice. I should imagine that that would be the quickest way to lose her respect, and his. If he wants her and can’t have her, let him try. somewhere else. There are always plenty of pretty, sweet, good girls to raise hié children and manage his house and love him, and what more does he want?” “Exactly!” Pamela said, with a nervous little laugh. “Most women are exactly alike, any- Gregory parane. busy with “But most women are not like that one,” Charteris thought, looking at the slender, weari girl in the arm- chair, her slim white figure and bright head lighted fitfully by fire and ‘lamplight, her slim ankles her cheeks poppy pink, her “long-lashed gray eyes on the fire. . m-you say that, Gregory, it nly proves that you have been in only love!” Pamela said. “Love is\a much better thing than Gregory argued casu- “And a man may love many women—love all fine, pure, good women—yes, and some of the»other kind, too!” he added, undér,_ his breath. ’ “You sound like a sultan or a Mor- mon or something!” Pamela-said dis- tedly. “He doesn’t know anything ut it, does he, colonel?” And then suddenly she.lowered her arms, and buried her face in her hands, and gave a child’s deep sigh of content. “Oh, but it’s so good to be home!” she brea thed.

When they went back to the sitting room, Grégory, about to turn to his chair, delayed her a moment. “Did you know I was goimg down to the Mexico place?” he asked care- lessly. “Some time soon—in a few weeks.” os “Oh, no! Greg?” “Indefinitely, I guess.” ““Indefinitely !” , “I guess so. I may come up now and then. I'll probably,” he said de- liberately, “get married down there.” Pamela’s amazed eyes shone at him like a star sapphire in the lamp- light. “To whom?” she demanded. “I'll write you all about it,” he as- sured her, yawning. And in parting, he added, “Too bad that—that the old I’m sorry. For how long, ' beau, who made love to you, wasn’t the right one.” She turned back. “How do you mean the right one?” “Well—yor told me ” he blun- dered. Hilliard, I mean!” he said, al- most with an effect of anger in his em barrassmient. Pamela turned toward the stairs again. “How do you know he wasn't?” she demanded, in level tones. “Well, because—because, naturally, that wouldn’t have been ‘trouble'!” Gregory said simply. The girl. was still, her ‘back half turned toward him in the dim, shad- owy.- room. “No, of course, not,” she said. “Well, good night,” Gregory said. “Good night, Gregory.” She closed the door behind her, and after a few minutes he could hear the murmur of her voice and his grandmother's voice, upstairs, After & while the voices stopped, and there was utter silence in the hacienda. Gregory knew that Pamela must. be sleeping the sleep of ex- hausted infancy, after. the excite- ment of the town visit and the wed- ding and the white night te which she had confessed. For himself, he felt that he would never sleep again. He was gone early in the morning and had his break- fast down at the branding corral with the cowboys, three miles from the house. The cattle were soon to be turned out to range for the winter, and the year’s crop of calves had to be marked. “That'll do for an excuse,” he had thought, leaving this message with Ana when he came downstairs at 6 o’clock.

Every day or two young Hilliard drove down from town to see Pa- mela. He drove a small runabout and parked it outside the patio door, beside the palings of the old gardens, and even if he stayed but a few minutes, he always saw her alone for at least half of them. Gregory was civil to him, Charteris and Mrs. Chard..only a little’ more. Exactly what Pamela felt.none of them was able to discern. She walked with Chester along the the meadows, where a line of willows marked the course of the creek. Charteris thought she always seemed a little relieved when her caller went away, drooped a little and grew quieter when he came; the old lady expressed @ crisp wish that the girl could make up her mind; made no com- ment whatsoever. . Chester’s manner was serious and determineéd;. he scemed to Pamela a different person from the gallant Eastern youth in the becoming sports clothes who had made the Rodeo s0 memorable to her only eighteen months before. He was, in fact, a different per- _ $on; grim, stubborn, and bitter. And she was no longer the girl who had dreamed away her ignorant childhood in. the old.

His uncle's failing, it seems, and they really need him at the bank; there’s no talk of his being dropped, any more. He's going to have a raise. And Miss Catherwood—the girl whose business he managed, the girl who was so crazy about him—has forgiven him— her mother hasn't, but that doesn’t signify!—and there’s no reason, he shouldn't go right ahead, rnd why we shouldn’t get married, some time next year, except—except—” “Well, go on. Except what?” “Except simply that I don’t want to, Colonel. You know,” Pamela elucidated, “when you're madly, des- perately in love with a person, there's no explaining it, and when you're not in love—well, it’s simply & blank and there’s no explaining that either. I want to be in love with Chester Hilliard, if only for my own self-re- spect. I say that I will be in love with him—and I can’t.” “Then I wouldn’t let him come down here, Pam. You can see that the poor fellow is unhappy. I'd not encourage that, at least.” “Encourage it!” Her face was crim- son. “Why, I beg him—TI order him not to come down here again!” she Said quickly, sensitively. “And he pays no attention?” “He says I don’t know my own mind!” She drooped and looked at her companion doubtfully, and Charteris laughed. “Oh, it’s not funny,” Pamela said shame-facedly. “He’s quite right. Just think of the way I’ve blown hot and cold—and what it’s cost me, and what poor Sue Rose has been. through!” "But I thought she was in love with this Don Juan anyway—from the very beginning!” “Well, yes; she told Maisie she was.” “Then I wouldn't worry. She would have lost him anyway,” Charteris said comfortably. “~ tI don’t want her to lose him! the girl said anxiously, ruefully. “You mean that you .expect this man who come glooming down here, and never takes his eyes off you. and changes color every time you speak, to marry some other woman?” Charteris demanded, studying her face curiously. “Not—not immediately,” Pamela said stoutly. “But after a while.

Charteris noticed the flawless curve of her clean-cut jaw and throat, the busy slender fingers, and the lowered thick lashes. She looked up, and he saw April color flickering in her face, and an odd, abashed smile in her eyes. “Chester’s insane with jealousy as it is,” she observed. “Of Gregory?” he asked quietly. “Gregory! Heavens, no! Nobody ever seems to count Gregory in at all. _ Gregory. says he’s going to marry .m- mediately, anyway,” she added lightly. “Do you suppose he will?” “I shouldn't wonder,” Charteris said idly, watching her closely. She breathed oddly for a moment, looked down at her work, looked up again. “Oh, I hope he won't! It’s none of my business,” Pamela said. “But Il think it would be a mistake to jump into marriage with—just any one. You can’t do that. You have to be in love!’ “I don’t see Gregory falling in love, somehow,” Charteris said, with a faintly interrogative inflection. “No. And yet he wants to get mar- ried,” Pamela submitted doubtfully. “He despises me,” she added, with ap- parent irrelevance. “Oh, I don’t think so,” Charteris protested mildly. “But he does,” the girl persisted. “I think he thinks I’m vacillating and school-girly—and, of course, I am,” she added ashamedly. “He talks to me so scornfully, he never listens to me when I say anything, and ne doesn’t—honestly—-seem to like me.’ “Perhaps he thinks of you as Hil- liard’s property; he hasn’t had any special reason to know exactly how | things stand” Charteris suggested “When I get out of this,” Pamela — said, after a silence, “I’m done.

It is the ‘pulse of the nation in things artistic ag well as in other aspects of life. He who knows ‘not Paris knows not France. But Paris is far from being ajl of France, and the feverish activity.of the central city is scarcely known and perhaps less sympathized with ‘in the “provinces.” By Certainly in art Paris is arbiter, and ° from-this center radiate the various influences that finally come into out- ward expression not only in the rest of Prance, but throughout the artistic world. It 1s a pity that this is so, even in part. No nation can afford to take as the final word the edict of any other nation. It gives up its precious heritage of individuality in so doing, for each nation’s art, to be true, must be the sincere expression of that nation, and how can Ameri- can artists, for instance, think just as do the artists of France? Each na- tion must have its own art expression if that art is adult and not depend- ent on that of any other nation, al- though it may be influenced by the thoughts and ideas of other nations. It--is-unfortunate that New York ac- cepts with scarcely a question and blind!y follows what the galleries in Paris pronounce as the last word in art. And New York is the great cen- ter of distribution of art in America. Undoubtedly many great artists have come eut of Paris and have been influenced by her thought, but there has been too much servile imitation and bowing to the fad of the mo- ment, which is the death of rea! origi- nality. No great artist can imitate another. His greatness consists in being absolutely himself, his greater self, his possible self, if you will, but gtiil not that of any other man, how- ever compelling may be his age ity. And this in spite of the fact that Cezanne is still the dominating in- fluence in painting today among the younger and virile painters. The best of them take his discoveries and make them their ovn, and go on from that basis without imitating his manner. They have got beyond that now. Of course, things can never go back to what they were before Cezanne paint- ed; they mus‘,go on to nes outlooks ‘ ‘and weer ad discoveries. ta é vi The point of + ‘l this somew hat dic- tatorial moralizing is that I saw Cezanne Hung in a prominent place in the Louvre, which set me thinking of the great changes that have come about ineart comparatively recently. For in Paris there is practically noth- ing of the old-fashioned art, or very little. And that little is found: in strangely conspicuous places. What battles it calls up to think. of Ce- zanne being hung with t “eat lial- ians and Flemings and Dutchmen! And yet this.is.just the tang and verve of art. It changes in expression. but art itself, which is really just a vital expression of life, is always the @ame when one knows enough about “it. That is its universal importance: its paramount interest. How Paris vibrates! Yes, that is the word, however much abused it has been, that really expresses the vitality of the city. It is keenly intense, alive. A bear, modeled by Lasserre, ow view in the Golerie Zz beréw- , Paris. ski, Its influence is compelling, certainly while one is here! To drive from the Rive Gauche to the Feubourge St. Honore is to cross the magic bar.. It represents the line between the art- ists who are struggling and seething with desire to express and to attain and those who have been acclaimed by the intelligentsia as having ar- rived. Magic line which divdes the great from the near-great. How many years it takes for an artist to cross that magic line! Yet some leap across it with a sudden burst of genius or a flash of the smile of the goddess of Fortune. The Rive Gauche, or the left bank of the Seine, is where the students live and paint, where the artists con- gregate and discuss the burning questicns of art and where art is born. Here are nearly all the studios of the working artists, of those men and women who will be famous to- morrow and acclaimed, or else go down in the maelstrom of the un- successful. ‘Before the war, I had lived in a tiny hotel in the Rue de Beaux Arts in sight of the ert school of that name and had wandered about the Rue de Seine looking in at the win- dows where were displayed the paint- ings of the day. There were not many _ shops or art galleries then. Yesterday I found the same littie hotel refur- ished and having quite an air, and wandered about the same _ street which now boasts many new art galleries, ag they are now called, and saw what a change had taken place in the paintings. It was tremen- dously stimulating and proved how intensely alive the quarter is. First I had lunch in the little restaurant where the artists congre- gate, called “Des Arts,” and where the waitress added up the price of my modest “dejunier” on the paper table cloth. There were artists young and old, who were talking as interestedly as ever on the eternally absorbing subject which has never been finally solved, so I’felt entirely at home, for here were the people that I really knew, even’ if I could not entirely understand their language, and they seemed to think that I was one of them and took me as a matter of course and did not even think me Strange in the fnnny surroundings where sawdust was the approved cov- ering for the floor and each diner had.a pigeon hole in the wal) for his napkin. The iatter idea appealed to me immensely. I wished | I might, own & napkin which reposed in @ ‘pigeon hole. It would give me such a feel- ing of really belonging. But this was not to. be, for I had to hasten away to see what these artists were paint- ing as well as what they were eating and thinking. First in order, I found the Car- mine gallery where alj the promising artists make their start. It might almost be called the nursing home for young artists. Here there were a number of really interesting paint- ings by Pierre Kohl where the genius of. the gallery declared that he dis- covered the budding talents of many & young artist presided. He was a character about whom one could write a book.._He might have step- ped from the pages of Balzac. We had an illuminating conversation on the paintings and. I came away with the idea of what unfathomed depths of talent are to be found on the Rue ae entttin Taner nr Sen HO ns sce Ei a St ee alle re oes. de Seine, but satisfied that the really shining lights all really began at the Galerie Carmine. It really is a delightful place, full of atmosphere and any number of in- teresting paintings which reflect the tendencies of the day. Here were Some good figures by Saby in addi- tion to the really finely constructed figures by Kohl, who also has aefiair for giving character to his portraits and who undoubtedly will some day cross the magic ling to the other side of the river. Here also were some lovely drawings by Fujita, a Japanese artist, and landscapes by Medici, Horbieu and Pierre Masella. Then I strolled into the Galerie Zborowski where Mme Zborowski met me graciously and showed me 4&4 wealth of riches which were unique and unusual. The owner and found- er of the gallery Zborowski is Polish and has had a romantic career. Favored with an intuitive flair for discovering real talent in an artist, he has fathered a number of men who have since become famous. . He could have made his fortune many times over if he had had: as much commerc nstinct as artistic. But often he lost in commercial ventures what he has made on paintings. Here was more real atmosphere than I found anywhere else. It is the real thing hefe; and art is the most important undertaking in life. First of all, the works of sculpture by Las- serre were astonishing in their origi- nality. The artist is a theosophist and loves animals. He sculptures them in the most sculpturesque Man- ner, which is not quite such an Irish bull as it seems, for many sculptors Portrait of Mme. S. by Modig- liani. do not have the fe for their wane terial and discover the figure within the stone or wood as does Lasserre. One has the impression that the artist merely has revealed the figure that was all the time waiting within the block of stone or the piece of wood. He releases them into being. ~ The Italian artist who was first a sculptor and then a painter, Modig- liant, -is-here—-represented..by several distinctive paintings which were 60 scorned and are now so prized. His portraits of woniéf are purposely <dis- torted to bring out a salient mood or characteristic of the sitter. Richard discovered by ‘Zborowski does charming things in a high key with the utmost naivete. His paint- ings are mostly still life impressions, but their harmony of tone is delight- ful. Light blues, yellows and greens are used frequently and juxtaposed skillfully. ~ Therese Delbains, a painter of flowers, is one of the newer painters who particularly pleased me: Her touch ts delicate and distinguished Her portraits, too, are quite as indi!- vidual and strongly characterized. Her color is light and exquisite. Kisling. too, is represented here by a number of portraits that are strong and un- forgettable. He has the power of making each sitter an individual and picturesque-at the same time. By picturesque Ido not mean the rather superficial quality of striking « pose, but am toner decision and sirength oe which is expressed with -a certain quality that attracts attention and holds it, Kisling is the most distin- guished artist that I saw on the Rue de Seine. There Was a splendid flam- ing flower piece by him in the Van Leer Gallery that was wonderful. It has the mark of the real thing on ite face. . There were other paintings, notably a fine street scene by Utrillo, which is One of the best of the many that I have seen in Paris, where Utrillos abound. This painter is very prolific and is one of the most favored Just now. Soutine, Eiche and Othon Friesz are also among the jewels of the gallery, as well as the classic De- rain. It is difficult not to linger too long on this side of the river, for there are vital paintings to be seen in the Mar- seilles Gallery, in the Zak Gallery and in many others nlong the entire Rue de Seine, which is so fascinating to wander through. This is the real heart of the art of Paris, but the head must not be neglected, which centers in the Rue de la Boetié’ and the Faubourge St. Honore, where are the large galleries of Bernheim-Jeune, Billet, Berhimer and Paul Guillaume. These galleries are thoroughly so- phisticated. with an entirely different spirit prevailing. Here is where the paintings _bring tremendous prices and where reputations are made which extend to New York and Lon- don later on. In the large exhibitions, the sev- eral salons which open in October, ome sees a great deal of bad or medi- Oocre work through which are sprin- kied works of real merit. The gal- leries aid in culling out the poor paintings, or at least most of them, and initiate one into the best of con- temporary painting. There is no ques- tion about it, the newer, so-called “modern art” is absorbing Paris, the rest is relegated to the dust heap witi the exception of a few pretty. and ineffective paintings of flowers and Sailboats that were hung in he George Petit Gallery. Here, how- ever, are hung many important paintings when the one-man shows are on during the fall and winter. In the so-called “Arts Decoratif’’ one sees the newer tendencies in dec- orative features, lamps, furniture, shades and various objects of art that make up the charm and beauty of modern Leatletis ‘This pase: of art is ever mote tmportaht than, painting’ in its effect on the minds of people as a whoie, for every one must have furni- ture and lamps and articles for daily use, whether they are interested in painting and sculpture or not. It is here that Paris has taken the lead and produced some important and remarkable changes that are welcome. The decorative arts are also influenc- ing largely the tendencies that are be- ing-taught in the schools in America and elsewhere. The tendencies are sane and healthy and are away from the over-elaborated and ornate, and tend to a sound constructive value, a simplicity and a clarity of form whol- ly admirable. But t% is with the tendency in painting and sculpture that. we are especially interested at present. It is not easy to get clearly the tendency in Paris in painting, for it is con- fused and mixed at times. It would take many -weeks--to— become rene oughly conversant on this subject, and then some one would dispute the con- -_clusion.. But from. visiting the impor- galleries one sees that the great tant — the important men of five more years ago, are still hoiding their own and that a few are strongly intrenched in the minds of the pub- Of course, Matisse is prime favorite yet, and he can not produce enough paintings to satisfy.the avid appetite of the buying public for his wares. There was y one to be seen in the galleries, for they are gobbled up by some art dealer or buyer for a waiting clint, and do not rest long on the walls of the gallery. But Utrillo, Soutine, Marie Lauren- cin, Chirico, Picasso, Pascine and Viamnick are still to be seen in all the important galleries. In the Billet Gallery there were some interesting men, notably the sculpture of Henry Parayre, which has a classic simplicity and a primi- tive vitality wholly captivating.

He is an artist who has thought for himself and his paintings have a certain quality that Is dis- tinctive, although it takes rather ea stout appetite to digest them with enjoyment. Here are also paintings by Eisenschitz and Le Falconnier, who are excellent in water colors of still life and landscapes. Negro sculpture is being thought of as an important contribution to art, for it is primitive and forceful as well as free from artificiality and superficiality. At the Guillaume Gal- lery a large number of masks and small sculptures were really. most impressive as being an expression of primitive art in its purity and variety. Georg and Fautrier, two men with imaginative ability and a Strange feeling for form, are to be seen here, represented by paintings of fantastic and unique form. Bernheim-Jeune is especially favor- ing Susanne Valadon Pascin, Rous- sel, Bonnard and nne. The lat- ter is represented — a delightful flower piece, which is really spon- taneous and is delicately painted. Susanne Valadon has a nude figure of a woman well drawn and modeled, interiors replete with color, “mostly reds and. : yellows : harmanized, shaw) the igteat colorist: .at- his ; best. ‘They are not as important works ‘of this painter as are the Bonnards in the Phillips Gallery in Wasington. color, reds skillfully contrasted with blue skies as a background for the landscape and figures which are treated in an impressionistic manner.

The time is fast approach- ing, according to experts, when we shall know accurately what the weather will be days, weeks and even months in advance.

The reporter went to the celebrity’s house not without misgivings as to the outcome of his mission. . Gaining admission, he was received by the man who was awaiting him on a landing at the head of a_ wicked flight of stairs. “Good morning, Mr. Blank,” chir- ruped the scribe. “I represent the Blankety-blank.

Back to the office he went, related his tale of woe to the city editor, and exhibited a badly sprained wrist acquired during his unceremonious exit from the ce- lebrity’s house.

Bok that upon receiving a check for $40,000 from the Western Union for one of his early inventions Edison didn’t know what to do with it, but finally took it to the bank “What do you wish to do with this?” asked the cashier. “I don’t know,” answered Edison. “do you?” The cashier consulted the bank ° president. It was decided to pay Edison in bills of small denomination . and send a detective behind him to see that he got home safely. When Edison was handed the small moun- tain of bills, he looked at the bank president, smiled, and still thought he\ was being joked with. When it dawned on him that the money was really his, he naively asked the presi- dent: “What'll I do with it?” The bank official took compassion on him, showed him how to open an account and draw checks against it.

She obtained very few signa- tures. An old farmer voiced the feel- ‘ ings of the majority. : : “Am I to understand you, ma’am,, that if this bill becomes law and my wife had some money left her, I should have to ask her for it?” “I was obliged to confess,” ex- plained Mrs. Fawcett, “that he would have to suffer this humiliation, and then I got no more signatures.” ee Sa Pee When Mrs. Fawcett was staying in Ireland in-days gone by, she visited - Townsend Trench who managed -a large estate in Kerry.

For instance, a young fellow came to tell Mr. Trench that he had prac- * tically a choice between two giris. One had a cow and two pigs; the. other—his favorite—had a cow and one pig. He wanted Trench’s advice - upon the final casting of the die. Trench did not hesitate for a mo- ment, but said: “Why, marry the girl with the cow and two pigs! There’s not the dif- ference of a pig between any two women in the wor!d.” ; “I have seen this story in print in verious forms,” said Mrs. Fawcett, when telling the story, “but I think Mr. Trench was entitled to claim it » as his own.” * a . + » Which recalls a story told by Charles Kingston- (in “Judges and _ the Judged") about--a ravishingly- pretty young Irish girl who had been jilted by her lover.

cal ft = ———S——— SE = Athens that I first saw Manna, known throughout the Balkans as “Mother of the Greek soldiers.” The moment she entered the room I knew she must be the person M. Venizelos, the prime minister, a few days before had described as the most extraor- dinary woman 1n Greece. She wore the semimilitary uniform of a war- time nurse. Despite her age, which is close to 60, she bore herself like a sergeant major, striding across the room with firm step, her snow- crowned head erect, her clear, kindly eyes glistening with life and vitality. In respose she struck me a& being one of the most beautiful women I had ever seen. It was difficult to believe that this patrician with the tender, smiling mouth and soft, hazél-brown eyes for. eight years had been a bitter, vindictive creature who. had become a hurse, not to heal but to kill. If it were true that, after having lived 25 years in a cultured Athenian home, she deliberately set out to avenge the murdyr of her brother by killing a Turk—if that were true, I wanted the story first hand. Graciously she granted my request for an interview. “You want to hear about my babies, don’t you?” she said enthusiastically. “Ah, I am so happy today. My good friend Venizelos has just promised to give me land on which to build a hospital for them. Think of it! .A hospital on the sunny slopes of beau- tiful Pentelicus, ten miles from Athens, where 1 can care for my 200 tubercular children. “Come to my house tomorrow and I'll tell you all about it.” I" was at an afternoon tea in HAT first interview was devoted entirely to the hospital project. Manna turned back every attempt I made to get her to talk about herself. A few days later, however, I called again. In the meantime I had talked with her brother, Commodore Melas, and from him I got the key which eventually unlocked the doors to her early life. He had told me that Man- ma had a picture of her murdered brother which she prized highly. When I asked her about this the ani- mated look on her face gave way to One of sadness. ° “Ah, my brother Paul. You have heard of him?” she asked, and going to a little rosewood box she took from it th otograph of a tall, handsome youngz“artillery officer. “Perhaps you have seen the monument erected to . his memory; it stands near the Arch of Hadrian.” “I had seen the monument she men- tioned, and half a dozen others dedi- cated to the same hero in different sections of Macedonia, where his memory is revered as a martyr. “He was my favorite brother,” said Manna, her eyes resting lovingly on the likeness of Lieut. Paul Méelas. “We played together through our childhood, loved the same pictures and works of art. We were insep- @rable until he grew up and went into the army. Poor Paul! He dreamed a great deal of the past—of the glory that once belonged to Greece. “IT loved to see him in uniform. In those days I knew nothing of the horrors of war.

My time was taken up with music, painting and study of the classics. War, to me, was remote, romantic! and whén Paul caine one day to say good-by to me, I was glad he was having the opporeuaity to do something for his country. “In the next few years my brother came and went, sometimes openly and with a light heart; sometimes almost secretly, when he rarely smiled. “Early in 1904—Macedonia was then under Turkish rule—he went away again. His mission, I learned later, was tO go with some of his compatriots to combat the anti- Greek propaganda that was being spread by our ancient enemy, the Bulgars, in Macedonia. “I never saw him again. “One day, just as the sun was setting, a courier came to me at Athens, saying, ‘Your brother, Paul— he is dead. He was murdered by the Turks in Macedonia.’ “I did not weep. It were better if I had. Instead something within me tightened. It was the desire for re- venge. It gripped me with overwhelm- ing force, smothering my finer sensi- bilities. It was the strongest emotion I have ever experienced. I could feel myself changing from a sane, home- loving woman to a bitter, vindictive creature, thirsting for the blood of a fellow man.” On one of the walls of Manna’s severely furnished room hung a small silver crucifix. Pointing to it, she continued: “That night I knelt before that little cross and repeated the Biblical law, ‘An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.’ Thenceforth, for eight years, that was my creed.” The purple haze that crowns Athens at the close of a brilliant day was descending as Manna reached this point in her narrative. I felt rather than saw that she was weep- ing softly, . Her.-snow-white head drooped and a sigh escaped her. * = e . UQUCE @ silly creed!” she con- tinued: “And how I suffered for it! It changed the course of my life, brought..the blush of shame to my cheeks and the censure of a king upon my head. Yet, at the time I took the vow it seemed perfectly natural. A Turk-—one of a race, hat- red of which is inherent in every Greek—had murdered my brother. By JACK O’DONNELL What more natural, more just than that I should take the life of a Turk in payment? “I did not stop to think more about the justice of it. In my ig- norance of worldly affairs I foresaw no great difficulties. All I had to do was to find a Turk—any Turk—and kill him. But my opportunities were more limited than I anticipated. Greel ladies were not permitted, either by law or social custom, t6 go roaming about the city of Athens or the Greek republic seeking a Turk to murder. “So when, in 1912, the government called for volunteer nurses for service in the finst Balkan war, I saw my op- portunity. Although totally unpre- pared for the arduous ‘ife in the field, I volunteered and was accepted. After some intensive training I was ordered to the front. Day and night I worked among the wounded, surrounded by the horrors of battle. None of these affected me. I performed my duties mechanically. Uppermost in my thought was my plan for revenge. As I worked I repeated & thousand times ‘An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth,’ and: prayed for my opportu- nity to slay. “I was with the Greek forces when they won their great victory at Saran- taporon. And it was here that I al- most realized the ambition I had nursed for eight years. I was working in the advanced-area first-aid sta- tions. The battle raged fiercely and the slaughter on both sides was ter- rific. The Greeks were bringing back Turkish. prisoners, the first that I saw. My heart leaped exultantly when I saw two of them coming toward the field hospital In which I was working. For the first time in my life I realized what men mean when they say ‘I saw red!’ sneer on his dark, hairy face, swagger toward the rear, acting more like a conqueror than a captfye.. — “Blind withyhatred, I fumbled about | for a weepon,. -4y hends, closed on a piece of metal pipe. I forgot weari- ness, forgot I was a nurse, forgot everything except vengeance. With pipe unlifted, I rushed at him. But quick as I was, a doctor of my unit was quicker. He struck my arm and the pipe glanced harmlessly off the Turk’s skull. Puriously I turned on the doctor, but he was too strong for me. Then I burst into tears. “Of course, my attempt on the I saw one of these Turks, a - Turk’s life was reported and eventual- ly reached the ears of Constantine, who became king a few months later, following the assassination of King George I. I was severely reprimanded by my superiors, who pointed out that I had violated the ethics of my calling as a nurse. | “Ethics! What were ethics, weighed against the wrong. the Turks had done me? I was still pondering that question the following March, when I met my king, Constantine. “The moment he saw me he became very stern. Great soldier that he was, he could not overlook even a woman's weakness. His first words of censure burned into my soul. He must have seen my agony, for he at once toki me _ to be seated. Then sitting beside me, he took my hand, looked into my eyes and said, ‘I realize that hatred of the Turk is part of your in- heritance, my déar girl, and I know that in your case the provocation was doubly strong. But you must remem- ber that the garb you wear is the symbol of humanity. Guard it sa- credly.’ “But it is not easy”’ continued Manna, “to give up something which has become a part of your existence. For eight years I have lived with the thought. that some day I would exact ‘an eye for an eye.’ “My first impulse was to quit the army and return home. But still we were at war, and when I remembered the great need of, nurses at the front I decided to carry on. “As I worked among the wounded in Macedonia I thought a great deal of what the king had said about the pettiness of revenge. AH around me brave boys were suffering and dying. As I cared for them, I realized how insignificant was the wound in my heart compared to their ghastly scars. Then for first time since donning the garb of & nurse I became a better sort of Samaritan... “Gradually .I ceased. brooding over my brother’s death uzitil there came a day when I believed my long-cher- ished hatred of the Turk was a thing of the past. “One day several years later I was with our front-line troops in another war against Turkey, -then being fought in Asia Minor. In the heat of battle I found ten of our soldiers, all in one group, badly wounded. One of them told me that they had been surprised by a detachment of Turks, Pd “I commandeered a mule and carried the wounded soldiers, two at a time, 7 \ oe. 4° a te safety.” - ~~ —_— -—..-e.

At the moment our troops were being driven back, and it was necéssary to remove these men to the rear, else they certainly would be killed. I commandeered a mule and carried them, two at a time, to safety. (rat incident revived the old: ha-~ tred. Whenever I came upon a wounded Turk I turned him over to another nurse, fearing to trust my~ self. I felt physically weak from the struggie, but I was certain that even- tually I would triumph over myself.” Manna’s real test came at Idena, Asia Minor, late in 1919. The Turks had advanced upon the town, driving the Greeks before them. The advance was made so rapidly that many of the civilian population had no time to make their escape. With other nurses, Manna stood her ground, ministering to the wounded. When the Turks entered the town Manna was working in a first-aid sta- tion in the resiiential section. “I saw hundreds of Greek girls jumping from the roofs of their homes to the pavement, cheosing death rather than the fate of being captives of the Turks. It was a mad- dening sight. “Late that afternoon I came upon a dying Turk. He had his Koran and was reading-it for solace. I stood for several minutes watching him trying to turn a page. I knew my duty, but for several minutes the old hatred held me back. Then the great thing happened. I went to him with Kind- ness in my heart, propped him wp, turned the pages of the Koran for him and bandaged his wounds. But he was too far gone. Finally he sank back, took my hand and, having rec- ognized me as a Greek, murmured, ‘Manna,’ a Greek word meaning moth- er. He died in my arms. “In that moment I knew the sub- limity of fdrgiveness. And all through the terrible years that followed, when my countrymen were massacred in Asia Minor, when our women and children and old men were driven into the sea at.Smyrna, when a mil- lion and a half refugees were dumped on the shores of Greece—all through those terrible years I was able to look upon Turk or Christian alike, with unjaundiced eye. “Since that, day at Idena T’ve nursed nians, Greeks and many other nation- _ alities. Many have beem enemies of my country, but it has never made a difference.’’ Is it any wonder that this woman of Athens, who went out to Kill and remained to heal, has received many decorations for her valor in the field for her humanity at home and abroad? Is it any wonder that Vent!- zelos calls her the “most extraordinary woman in Greece,” and that when it was thought she was dying of cholera in a war-front hospital, King Con- stantine sent an officer post haste to pin upon her breast the Order of the Savior, the highest honor he could confer upon a woman?

War: OTE. SR I homemaker acts also as the guardian of the wage-earning housewife who must provide through her own efforts not only the inspira- tion but the wherewithal of home- making. In this connection, a statement re- cently issued by Miss Mary Anderson, director of the Women’s Bureau of the United States Department of Labor, is of interest. Miss Anderson said: ' “4 “The Thrift Exposition for women just held in.New York City is a further tribute to the importance of women’s earnings from an economic viewpoint and should serve as one >f the final bombs to explode the anti- quated pin-money theory still ad- hereq to by some forces who fail to realize that this old and false idea is as much out of place in the mod- ern world as hoop skirts and spinning wheels. The theory that women work just for feminine fripperies would be ridiculous except for the mischief it has wrought in the past in keeping women’s pages low and the possibility of it as a continued menace.to the wage-earning opportunities and prog- ress of women until every vestige of it is dissipated. “Those who still cling to this theory,” continued Miss Anderson, “will. have to change the definition of ‘pin money’ when they face actual facts. A woman’s so-calleq pin money is often the family coupling pin, the only means of holding the family to- gether. and of making ends meet. Very few women, if any, work just for money, for trinkets and trifles, or for a few extra dollars to fritter away on amusements and luxuries. The great bulk of women wage-earners are working in factories mills, stores, Offices, restaurants, laundries and many other places to earn money for the bare essentiais of life or to raise the standard of living for their fam!- lies and give their children a better education and a iprabine opportunity to advance in life.” The recent proposal to allot Gov- ernment lands available for home set- tlement to the various States recalls that in this way Uncle Sam has aided the American homemaker for -many generations.

Posture is the result of habit—the unconscious reversion, by the muscles and bones, to the position they have been allowed to take day after day. Finally they assume these positions automatically, and if they are not cor- rect we develop bodily distortions, an unattractive appearance, and a whole series of unsatisfactory consequences. Poor posture leads to fatigue, to back- ache, to strain on the wrong parte of the body and often to one-sided growth or such physical imperfections as a narrow chest, round shoulders, protruding abdomen and many others. It is possible to maintain a good posture while engaged in almost any household task. The fact that all household activities must be per- formed repeatedly suggests that they may be made to encourage habits of good posture, or to correct poar pos- ture if one thinks definitely of how one is standing, sftting or stooping while at work. Take such a simple matter as stand- ing at a pass closet or cabinet to operate an electric toaster, shown in the photograph by the United States Department of Agriculture. A home demonstration agent in Massachusetts used this frequently recurring activity to show farm women how to stand and how not to stand. She showed them how they looked when they allowed their shoulders or hips to slump forward, and the right way to stand while working at a counter or table. Various demonstrations of pos- ture have beén given, showing farm women the right and wrong positions for dishwashing, mopping, handling foods in the oven, sitting to prepare vegetables and so on. Any one inter- ested can apply this idea to a scrutiny of her own way of working. It is sometimes possible to see oneself in a large mirror as a particular task is carried on, and to note improper posi- tions of head, shoulders, hips, back or feet.

Department of Agriculture.) ‘It is advisable to clean out sink or laundry tub waste traps from time to time. Dirt collects in the bottom of them ‘and grease adheres to the sides of the pipes. It is not hard to unscrew the cleanout plug and wash out any obstructing matter or pull it out with a wire bent to form a hook, says the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture. Grease, hair, or lint, can often be scraped out with a stick when the trap has been opened. Coffee grounds are among the commonest sources of stoppage: at the trap. NMelted wax used for sealing jelly glasses finds its way into the trap, and when hard- ened is another frequent cause of trouble. Small obstructions are often forced down or drawn up by the use of a simple rubber force cup, sometimes called “the plumber’s friend,” cost- ing 30 to 60 cents. The cup is placed over the fixture outlet and the fix- ture is partially filled with water. The wood handle of the cup is then worked rapidly down and up, causing alternate expulsion of the water from beneath the cup and suction upward through the waste pipe and trap. Chemical solvents are sometimes needed to free the pipes. Caustic soda or potash are sometimes used. Directions for their preparation and use may be found in Farmers’ Bulle- tin 1426-F, “Farm Plumbing.” SWEET POTATO PUFF The dryness of some varieties of sweet potatoes can be overcome by mashing them after cooking and mak- ing them into a sweet potato puff.

Silks shouM’ be washed in the same manner as woolens. Though there is less danger of shrinkage, and they are not so sensitive to alkaline solu- tions, silks ere .usually very delicate and must be handled carefully. If the fabric is colored, the suds should be lukewarm and even cooler than 110 degrees Fahrenheit.. There is less danger of injury to both fabric and color if soap bark is used instead of soap. Do not rub too hard, as the fibers may be broken or the gloss dulled. Squeezing and working in the suds is better than rubbing. Avoid Strong soap and washing powders. Squeeze out the suds without twist- ing the fabric. 3 Rinse thoroughly in water of the same temperature, and remove the water finally by squeezing and pat- ting between dry towels or heavy cloths. A final rinse in a bath con- taining a half ounce of 36 per cent acetic acid to a gallon of water tends to increase the luster. Do not wrinkle silks any more than neces- sary. If an extractor is used, special precautions are needed, as long, hard extraction produces wrinkles very dif- ficult to remové. Gum arabic and gelatin are good stiffening agents for most silks. Glue is excellent if the material is dark. Dry them as quickly as possible, but never in the sun. Rapid drying before an electric fan prevents watermarks and. assists in retaining a good finish. Ribbons, laces and veilings are re- stored very nearly to their original finish by dipping in skimmed milk or whey. Be sure the milk fat has been removed, as it forms grease spots. Stretch over a smooth sur- face to dry and leave unironed. The odor of milk which is first apparent on the fabric soon disappears. Silk scorches easily, and white silk becomes yellow when pressed with a very hot iron. Use a warm iron, pro- tecting the fabric with cheesecloth. Iron on the wrong side. The fabric should be evenly damp, but not wet. If too wet and ironed with a hot iron, it is likely to be stiff and papery, and if half wet and half dry, it may be spotted. Pongees are very easily water- marked, appearing darker where the water has been. This always occurs if a wet spot is ironed dry. To avoid such difficulties, have the dampness very evenly distributed and iron on the wrong side, or iron the garment without dampening. Steaming is also effective. Use a double press cloth and sufficient water to moisten the upper layer. Thus no water reaches the garment, and the steam tends to in size or shape or that have had to _ be trimmed can be utilized to make sweet potato puff. Here is a recipe from the Bureau of Home Economics: 5 or 6 medium-sized sweet potatoes. 2 tablespoons melted butter. Boil the. oweet potatoes in their skins. When tender remove the skins and any discolored portions and press the potatoes through a ricer, There should be about one quart of the po- tato pulp. Mix until smooth with the milk and butter. Beat the yolks and whites of the eggs separately. Stir the yolks into the potato and then fold in the well-beaten whites. Pile the mixture lightly into a greased baking dish and bake in a moderate oven for 45 minutes or until light and fluffy and brown on the top.

Artificial silk or “rayon,” as it is now being called, is much weaker when wet and must be laundered with particular care. The following suggestions are given by some manu- facturers of knitted underwear and are applicable to all artificial silk fabrics: Artificial silk knitted underwear shoukd always be washed in luke- warm water with soapsuds. Hot water makes the fabrics tender. Pure soap is essential. The fabric should not be rubbed, but it should be squeezed and rinsed repeatedly until clean. Rough finger nails or rings worn on the fingers tear wet artificial silk fabrics very easily. After launder- ing, the garment should be hung over a line or in any other suitable place, but” under no circumstances stiould clothespins be used: In iron- ing, care must be taken to avoid too hot an iron; medium heat is best. Lace Curtains. Measure both dimensions of the curtains before leundering, in order that they may be stretched to the correct size. Use the general method with the following precautions: Handle the curtains carefully in the suds, squeezing and working them rather than rubbing. Many curtains that appear strong have been greatly weakened by the action of light, and go to pieces when washed. If a machine is used, inclose the cur- tains in net or muslin bags. Rinse and blue white curtains as in washing ordinary fabrics. Cream, ecru and brown curtains may be retinted. Add a strong s0- lution of tea or coffee, or a combi- nation of the two, slowly to the hot water until the desired tint is pro- duced when tested on a piece of muslin. Brown cotton dyes can be used in very weak solutions, and should be tested on @ sample for shade. Remove the curtain as soon as the desired shade is obtained. Starch the curtains if desired, or, better still, use gelatin or gum arabic as a stiffener. ' Dry curtains in stretchers, or spread @ sheet on the floor, mark off the size desired, and pin the curtains to it, stretching where necessary. Stretchers that do not form scallops where the pins are inserted are best for straightedged curtains. Pillows. Pillows may be washed without re- moving the feathers. Scrub in a wegk washing soda solution, using a good suds. Repeat in a second suds if necessary. Rinse in lukewarm water, changing it two or three times. If an extractor is used, extract, and then dry the pillows on a sheet in a warm place, preferably in the sun. Otherwise squeeze out at much of the excess water as possible and dry in the same way. Beat the pillows from time to time during drying. De not use clothes pins on rayon garments,

HE prodigious popularity of sto- ries of murder, horror, ghosts, policemen, professional and am- ateur dete ‘ives—perhaps the most striking feature of Anglo-Saxon prose fiction at. the present moment—has led to serious and scholarly study. 1 am afraid there will be a great many theses written on the detective novel by young men and women who are “university candidates for the degree of doctor of pb »phy.

Andrew Carnegie and the Rabbits Which Helped to Form His Business Career. By PR ESTON WRIGHT ing, got his playmates to white- wash the fence which his or ut T= SAWYER, by clever bargain- ent had assigned him to do, ’ Mark Twatn’s hero was not half so shrewd as Andrew Carnegie, the boy, in a somewhat similar cause. It is thus that life outdoes fiction. Blooded horses and blooded dogs became possessions of Mr. Carnegie in the days of his affluence But none were so important as the pets of his boyhood. These exercised an influ- ence on: his after life, though not in @ manner you might expect. It was in the early boyhood days at Dunfermliné that William Carne- gie, the damask weaver, assisted his son Andrew to what the latter called “one Of the chief enjoyments of my childhood.” It was the keeping of pigeons and rabbits. In his autobiography Mr. Carnegie says: “I am grateful every time I think of the trouble my father took .to build a suitable house for these pets. Our home became headquarters for my young companions. My mother Was always looking to home infly- ences as the best means of keeping her two boys in the right path. Sie used to say that the first step in this direction was to make home pleas- ant; and there was nothing she and my father would not do to please us and the neighbors’ children who cen- tered aboutus.” Now pigeons and rabbits are splen- did pets, and they offer a vast amount of amusement and interest to their owners But they have to be looked after and fed. This requires work. There are times when such duties become irksome. Particularly is this So when the pets multiply and grow, as happened in the case of Andy Carnegie’s rabbits. Apparentl the multi-millionaire- to-be retired into himself and thought heavily as the time for the arrival of the little rabbits approach- ed. The result of this was a scheme which puts Tom Sawyer to shame. Young -Andrew—who was not yet in his teens, he being thirteen when his parents moved to America—hired his playmates to gather his animals’ food In consideration of their’ services they were given an extremely valu-. able reward Thrifty Andrew agreed that as -the young rabbits arrived they should be > named for his comrades! “The Saturday holiday was gen- erally spent by my flock in gather- ing food for my rabbits,” writes Mr Carnegie. He adds: “My conscience reproves me today. looking back, when I think of the hard bargain I drove with my youn: playmates, many Of whom were con- tent to gather dandelions and clover for a whole season with me, cond!- tioned upon this unique reward—th* poorest return ever made to labor’! Alas! what else had I to offer theta! Not a penny!” Well, let his conscience bother him—though not too severely, since it is to be suspected that the other laddies got their full share of fun and interest out of the pets, and could well afford to contribute to their support. The important. _ pari of this negotiation was that it was Andrew Carnegie’s first business ven- ture as an employer. He later re- membered his stunt as the earliest evidence of that organizing power upon which his material success in life depended. Years afterward, when he got into business, he recalled the success of the plan by which he procured forage for his rabbits. The lesson was 4s piain as the lines in one’s hand. It is not strange that he called his suc- cess * * * “a*success not to be at- tributed to what 1 have known or done mysel7, but to the faculty of knowing and choosing others who did know better than mvself Precious knowledge this for any mai to possess.” More’ than 50 years later, in 189838. while On a coaching trip through the Highlands, Mr. Carnegie’s party stop- ped at a small inn. Another guest came forward and introduced himself He was. Mr. Carnegie records, “Mr MacIntosh, the great furniture manu- facturer of Scotland—-a fine charac- ter, as I found out afterward.” Mr. MacIntosh made himself known to the stee} king as oe of tiie boys who had at Dunfermline gathered spoil for Andy Carnegie’s rabbits and so had one named for him. Mr Carnegie was delighted beyond meas- ure. This was the only one of the “rabbit boys” whom he met in after- life. They continued good friends ever afterward, an intermittent COFrespon - dence giving each great comfort.

Wherever he could find those to listen, he preached the new religion. About 300 converts were made in the course of the first decade, but they found that life was not easy for them in Mecca. Their fellow citizens found ways to make things uncomfortable because of their refusal to’ stand by the old creeds. As a consequence the followers of Mohammed—the first “Mohamme- dans”—migrated from Mecca, most of them going to Abyssinia or to the neighboring City of Medina. Nearly alone—in fact, with only two who shared his faith: his cousin Ali and his dear friend Abu Bakr—Mo- nammed had remained in Mecca. The friendship of Abu had thus far kept him from harm, but. now the charm was breaking. He was to be mur- dered! But Mohammed was not eager to take the journey across the Styx. Blessed and pleasant as was to be the fate of all who embraced his creed, he still clung to life on earth. Ali entered his house, taking the place of the master, and .Mohammed left at the coming of dusk—not no- ticed by his enemies. In a little space he joined Abu; and the two rode forth on camels.

Friends who saw the poet off on the Baltimore boat on September 27, 1849, have stated that he was quite sober and cheerful to the last, remarking as he took leave of them that he would “soon be back in Richmond again.” According to old maps and time tables, the journey from Richmond by water to Baltimore in 1850 took about 48 hours, with stops.

Meanwhile the flight was discovered in Mecca, and at the break of dawn a searching party followed. By means of the footprints of the camels, Moham- med and Abu were traced almost to the mouth of. the cave: and they heard the voices of the pursuers outside. “Fear not," whispered the prophet to Abu, “for Allah is with us and will guard us in the hour of our need.” the cave M ie ae two combenieus start across the scorching sands of the desert. the Cave of Saur, 3 miles from Mecca. There they hid and found what: re- —————SS ee ~ = —— oe er ee REE oe Ooo landmarks were passed en route, and the general movement was via Eppes Island, Windmill Point, Powhatan, Sandy Point, Hog Island, Days Point, Old Point Comfort, Rappahannock River, Smiths Point, Point Lookout, Patuxent River, Cove Point, Sharps Island, Herring Bay, Annapolis, North Point and then Baltimore. Often before in the poet’s troubied life he had made this journey. Never, though, had his horizons appeared s0 promising. Yet disaster was close at hig heels. The only certain fact about his movements on landing in Baltimore on September 29, 1849, was that he called that afternoon on a friend of his, Dr. Nathan C. Brooks. Unfortu- nately, he was out of town. Then Poe dropped out of sight completely for five whole days. What be- came of him in that time is the core of the mystery which surfounds his last hours. An election for Congress and the State Legislature was in progress in Baltimore, and the town. was noto- rious for the operations of the Plug Uglies, a gang of political toughs. potential voters, doping them and keeping them in “coops” until election day, when they would be taken out Voters easy to do this. The reason for thinking this hap- pened to Poe is based on the fact that when he was found dying under the steps of the old Baltimore Museum and taken to Cooth & Sergeant's tavern in Lombard street late in the afternoon of October 3, 1843, it. was not far from a notorious coop. The. logical conclusion is that when he was seized by the gang in charge of it shortly after his arrival in Balti- “They had the habit of shanghaling - more on September 29, given liquor, to which he was peculiarly suscepti- ble, and while in that irresponsibie condition doped and held until elec- tion day.

His last visions were of that crea- tion of hig brain, “A:.Gordon Pym,” for. he called again and again for “Reynolds, Reynolds,” one of the characters in, that story. ‘Then he grew quieter. It was then 3 o’clock in the gray morning of Oc- tober 7, 1849. Suddenly, gently mov- ing his. head, he said, “Lord, help my poor soul,” and “the fever called liv- ing” was conquered at last for Edgar Allan Poe. a. The next day, October 8, a little fu- neral train went through the City of .Baltimore. Few turned ‘to gaze after it, but it was the city’s king of poetry going to his rest among his ancestors in Westminster churchyard. No bells tolled, except, perhaps, those Bells of Fancy he had written into literature. Near his grandfather’s grave, the Rev- olutionary patriot, Gen. David Poe, they lay him down, secure at last from that “unmerciful disaster” of -which— his Raven had told in measured. words. se «PRS ters om, . eee mye h sPet ome of Med biting’ ae be murderers lacked acumen, the hid- den men were not found. Shuddering in the cavesend fearing that if they emerged they might be seen; Moham- med and Abu waited until a servant of Abu drove goats to the mouth of the cave ‘and,gave milk to hungry mouths. A daughter of Abu brought solid food and a guide appeared .in the person of Abdullah. Abdullah was not a follower of the new faith, but he knew the route to Medina and he was willing to show it fo: pay. Toward Medina the little party moved at first, as they left the cave, nervous and apprehensive, but grow- ing in confidence as they went on- ward. Across the scorching sands, and at last the houses of Medina in sight! Word of the master’s arrival spread like wildfire among the faithful, and people climbed to the roofs of their houses to sing welcome. It was a very different atmosphere from Mecca, and Mohammed thrilled to his new environment, Almost im- médiately he entered upon the con- struction of a mosque, and as it was being reared he chanted: “Oh, Allah! There is no happiness except the happiness of the hereaf- ter!”’ The flight of Mohammed from Mec- ca to Medina took place in the year 622 of the. Christian era; and it waa considered so important that the cal- endar was made to begin in the year of the event. Thus, if we may believe @ modern Mohammedan, the year 1 was the year during which the proph- et escaped murder and found refuge. in the City of Medina.

Thou- sands. visit it yearly to pay tribute there to a poet whose fame has grown immeasurably since his passing. The mysterious nature of his death has enhanced this interest. When Charles Dickens visited America he went to Baltimore to stand at the grave of Poe and afterward called on Mrs. Clemm at the Church Home in Balti- more and presented her with $150 as | a token of his esteem. . In 1885 all that was mortal of Vir- ginia Clem Poe was brought from Fordham, N. Y., and placed in the grave with the bodies of her mother and her poet husband, Edgar Allan Poe, Thus this trio who had loved each other so truly were reunited once more. In 1874 Rosalie MacKenzie Poe, only. sister of the poet, died in the Epiphany Church Home in Washing- ton and was buried in the lot set aside for that institution in Rock Creek Cemetery. With her passed the - last earthly tie which bound Edgar Allan Poe to this mundane sphere. Alfred Lord Tennyson once wrote of Poe, when asked to send an appre- ciation of his Mfe in concrete form: “How can so §s -and weird a geniug and so strange and sad a life exprest. or comprest in a Paragraph?

he ANNIVERSAR SS OO a years and years longer the world would have gone en in total igno- France of that which has proved so great a blessing. Morton called his discovery “Leth- eon,” but this name was soon dsopped in faver of the term “anes- thesia,” which was suggested by Qliver Wendell Holmes. In a letter te Morton on the subject, he wrote: “My dear sir: Everybody wants to have a hand in a great discovery. All I will do is to give you a hint or two as to names, or the name, to be ap- plie@? to the state produced and the agent. The state should, I think, be called, ‘anesthesia.’ This signifies in- sensibility, more particularly to ob- jects of touch. The adjective will be ‘anesthetic,’ Thus we might say, the state of anesthesia, or the anes- thetic state ...I would have a name pretty soon, and ‘consult. some: accom- plished scholar, such as President Everett or Dr. Bigelow, senior, before fixing upon the terms, which will be repeated by the tongues of every civilized race of mankind, You could mention these words which I suggest for their consideration; but there may be others more appropriate and agree- able. Yours, respectfully. O. W. Holmes.” : It has been said—and well said— that the first attitude of the world toward a great discovery is incredulity and then hostility. This was the case in the reception of. the announcement ef Morton’s discovery by the medical | faculty and scientific journals. “We should not consider it entitled to the least notice,” blatted a leading medi- eal magazine of Philadelphia, “but we perceive by a Boston journal that “prominent members of the profession have been caught in its meshes.” Paris evinced no interest at all in the matter; the councils of Zurich ‘even. went so far as to prohibit the use of ether. Sermons were. preached against the use of anesthetics. “Pain,” cried the ministers, “was the natural and intended ¢urse of the primal sin; therefore, any attempt to do away. with it must be wrong.” A prominent psychologist voiced his doubt as to whether there was really any advantage in suppressing pain. Even among those of his own pro- fession, Merton had to face stubborn opposition. A meeting of dentists in Boston was called. and a committee of ‘twelve was appointed to make a protest against anesthesia, They reached the ear of the public through the newspapers.

In .all other lnes, the champions defend their claims in an- nual tournaments or matches and; if- beaten, lose their titles, but the in- eompetent.or second-rate fighter who comes by a title, accidentally or by purchase at private sale, as often hap- pens, may hold it indefinitely, due to the old pugilistic superstition that a champion, however contemptible, re- mains a champion until he is beaten in the ring at the weight for the class. Sammy Mandell won his champian- ship from Rocky Kansas. The latter took it from Jimmy Goodrich, a sec- ond-rater, who had come through an elimination tournament conducted in New York. Mandell did not fight through the tournament, but after Goodrich had proved himself the least worst of a very bad lot, Kansas beat him with easy grace.

And these things Morton demonstrated. The writer who, in an issue of the Edinburgh Review in 1820 sarcastically question- ed, “What does the world yet owe to American pliysiclans or surgeons? What new substances have their chemists discovered? Or what old ones have they analyzed?” is more than adequately answered. Morton’s discovery made possible the most astonishing advanees in sur- gery. Plastic surgery made its debut. It had now become possible to per- form operations that required con- siderable time, previously impossible because of the attendant pain. But now, with their patients under the influence ef anesthesia, surgeons un- concernedly sew up hearts, lay bare the brain, remodel faces and—well there is no limit to the possibilities of modern surgery. Morton spent the latter part of his life trying to obtain some recompense from the Government. And in this he failed. In 1869 he died—a-disap- pointed and world weary man. He se Ee me Te ee > had helped his fellow man, but in so doing he had also reduced his own family to poverty. His death was hastened by disillusionment and dis- appointment. How truly worded was the inscrip- tion on the silver box containing $1,000 which the trustees -of the Massachusctts General Hospital pre- sented to him: “In honor of the ether discovery of September 30, 1846. He has become poor in a cause which has made the world his debtor.” Washington University, Baltimore, conferred the degree of M. D. on him in 1849. In 1852 he received from the French Academy of Scienses the large bold medal, the Monthyon prize in medicine and surgery, the Cross of the Order of Wasa, Sweden and Nor- way and the Cross of the Order of St. Viadimir, Russia. In 1856-57 a national testimonial was instituted, and Morton was given full credit for the discovery. In the public gardens of Boston a monument has been erected to iden- tify Boston as the birthplace of this digcovery. Over Morton's grave in Mount Auburn Cemetery, near Bos- ton, there stands a monument with the following epitaph, written by Dr, Jacob Bigelow: “William T. G. More- ton, inventor and revealer of anes- thetic inhalation, before whom, in all time, surgery was agony, by whom pain in surgery was averted and ane- nulled, since whom science has con- trol of pain.” Boston has inscribed Morton's name on the outside walls of the Public Library and upon the base of the dome in the House of Representatives in the Statehouse where Massachusetts has emblazoned the names of fifty-three of her most famous sonse—names selected in such & way that they shall either mark an epoch, or designate a man who haé turned the course of evenis. Such @ man was Morton. And on the bronze bust of Morton here in Washington we read, “Dr, William T. G..Morton of Massachu- setts (1819-1868). The physician who demonstrated to the worid the art of surgical anesthesia by the operation performed in the Massa- chusetts General Hospital, Boston, October 16, 1846, the results of which were published in November 3, 1846,” This memorial to Morton was pres- ented to the National Museum by his son, Dr. Willlam J. Morton. The most fitting monument to Morton, however, is a world free from unnecessary pain. Let us not allow his name to drop into oblivion, but on this anniversary of his great demonstration, pause and do rever- ence to the memory of an American hero who bestowed the greatest gift of many centuries upon mankind. ———-— ———— ——— ———- SS ee eS -- —- = S— ee ~ cause he has preferred to fight outside the City of New York.

Now, in the patio at 5 o%lock, the color leaped to her face, and she stopped, looking toward the garden arch, her hands full of books and knitting and letters. “There's.

And Charteris, who was watch- ing her rather than the patio doorway, r the look that came into Pamela's ace. A moment later the master of the hacienda came in, bigger and broader and browner than ever, bringing vital- tty and stir and interest with him, somehow, making the rancho and the hacienda seem like themselves again. “Hello, Greg!"

Pale, subdued and abstracted in her deep chair, by the fire, she kept her eyes upon the lapful of tangled yarns-she was pa- tiently, delicately unraveling, and ap- peared to take no interest in the con- versation. She wore a piain black silk gown with a white collar falling back from the firm creamy line of her throat; and. whether {t was the sober gar- ment, or the certin new trimness and . Closeness with which she had dressed her tawny hair, or the new mood of gravity and quiet, or all these to- gether, Charteris decided that she seemed older—seemed a woman now, instead of the girl she had been when Gregory had brought home his bride, three days before. Three queer days they had been at the hacienda of the Rancho Molino; nothing had teen natural, nothing easy, and the bride and bridegroom had been the least natural and most constrained of all. There had been a certain truculent triumph, almost an- gry. in Gregory’s manner, : as, dusty and bewildered and tired, he had brought his wife home and had in- troduced her; a sort of nervous brag- gadocio as painful to witness as any apology or diffidence could have been. And almost immediately it had dropped fron him, like the cloak it was, and he had subsided into alter- nate moods of gl ye a ag lences, stubbornly forcing the. con- reconcile Gregory to 60 blame the boy—entirely. “I've spoiled every- in the hot midday sunshine for an hour or two, staring vacantly inso space—amiable, stupid, half asleep.

SECTION OF THE WASHINGTON POST WASHINGTON, D. C., OCTOBER 6, 1929. AN EXAMPLE FOR OUR BOYS AND GIRLS TO FOLLOW A Junior Post Contributor Who Is Now a Recognized Authoress Dear Post Boys and Girls: This is a true story that began on the Washington Post Boys and Girls Page fifteen years ago and is con- tinued today on book shelves all over: the country. Ask your mother. or father or big sister or brother who used to write Tor the Page if they remember “The Scribe.” Perhaps some of them do. Perhaps they remember the gay, fun- ny letters she used to write nearly every Sunday for more than three e the Sorfbe. And certainly you will ike to know. the story, because’ not 8© long age she was a little girl, roller skating, and studying geo- graphy, getting new dresses and writing stories and letters to The Post Boys arid Girls Page just as you do now for The Junior Post. The Scribe’s real name was Mar- garet Lee Runbeck and she lived “in _ Washington, and went to Washington schools—the Wallach, the Brent, the Dent, and finally to the Eastern High School. All the time she was going to school, she was writing stories. But the stories weren't good enough to let any one see, she thought. She kept writing new ones, and better ones ’ And now she has written a long one, good enough for people to see, called, “People Will Talk.” It is not a story for boys and girls, alone: It was written for grown-ups, too, for there is love init and wed- dings, and other grown-up things. But, unlike lots of books that grown- up people read, it is good for boys and girls, too. Miss Runbeck thinks often about The Junior Post. She lives in Boston, Mass., now, where she doesn’t hear much about W: mn, she says. But she thinks about it, and about the boys and girls who used to write her letters, and to whom she wrote letters. long ago. .. he was proud of her letters on the Boys and Girls Page, but she didn’t let any one know who she was and that she wrote them. She used to write such long letters ~ she for the Scribe’s letter. the paper in to see if her letter was in. She shivered with excitement as through the pages, looking Sometimes the artist would draw a little it. she because it looked so much better there in the newspaper than it had in her handwriting in the big, inky sheets she folded the newspaper up again and crept back into bed. Her mother znd father read the letter and showed it to her and told her: how nice it would be if she wrote letters. She almost jumped out of her skin with happiness then, but she didn’t tell them she had written them. But a year later a rich Wash- ington woman wanted to give her a prize for her writing. Then she had to tell them. Her mother and father tried to get the old papers and save them, and every one was proud. of her, you may be sure. She took the prize money and went away to college, writing better stories all the time and making up her mind that some day she would write a book about the way people live in Washington, D.C. It took her several years to write the book the way she wanted -it. Things that are worth while sometimes can’t be hurried, you know. But at last it was finished, and now when people who like .the book ask her how she ever happened to write such a good story she tells them about the Httle girl who be- longed to The Post Boys and Girls Page a long time ago. If you like to write letters, remem- ber this story, and perhaps it wiil come true for yon some day, just as it did for Margaret Lee Runbeck. ITOR JUNIOR POST. At Summer Camp.

There were a great many children playing about, so I thought I would stay a little while. ‘ ; I was underri@ath a bush and fust then a girl was passing and I heard her say to her companion, “Oh, Dor- othy, look at this cute kitty.” And she picked me up and brought me over where a great many girls were playing. They all said I was “cute.” I don’t know what “cute” means, but I just remember them saying that. I was well fed there, and I am hav- ing a very nice time but the ont thing I hated is another cat thaf used to quarrel with me, and every morning when the girls come out to feed me, I am up in a tree. The girls said I had gone up there to protect myself from the cat and that true was ; One evening two dogs stayed for the evening. I don’t know whether they were invited or not, but I'l tell you one thing—they weren't good company. The girls put me in my box.and I am sorry I didn't stay. The dogs chased me so far that I didn’t know where I was going, but I saw a vine be still there if the girls had not found me. I was so glad when they gave me something to eat. I have three mothers.

The captain of the good ship, Molly, had brought his little daughter, Jean, to keep him company on the voyage. The captain intended to go to the North Pole to discover a certain kind of beast which the museum wanted. They had traveled for days and days when one day an old sailor said, “We better make to shore for I fear a terrible storm.” But the captain only said, “’Tis only your imagination.” That night the storm did come. The night was black, the lightning flashed, the ship tossed from side to side. Jean was cold and frightened. Her father wrapped her_in his coat and said, “Now, my little daughter, please go into the cabin, for on the deck you shall be tossed about like a fly. Jean obeyed and asked God to save ~— them. Then she went to sleep. The next morning she awoke, the sun was shining brightly. She. got dressed and ‘went on the deck. Her father, as he kissed her, said;, “Daugh- ter, we have to go to port to have the ship repaired. No one was hurt.” MARIE HART (age 12). 1123. Owens place northeast. My Kitty.

Thus it was that Jane Belmont, Kay Douglas, Martha Price and the five or six other members of the While Away Club had come to hear of it. They were now holding a meeting discus- sing means of replenishing the treas- ury when Ruth Morris raised _her hand for $0 gr aon to speak. “In read ne the account of this con- templated flight of the gigantic air- ship,” she began, “I happened to come across something which, I think, may interest us. It is ismply this,” and she read aloud to the interested and expectant girls the folowing pas- sage: “Letters may be sent on the Graf Zeppelin for the sum of $3.75, © round trip.” “well?” demanded the puzzled girls. “Oh, don’t you see,” explained Ruth... patiently, “what a wonderful oppor- tunity it is for us to increase our treasury fund? We could all chip in and send a letter on it and if the dirigible reached ite destination our money would be doubled or more, for the letter would then be worth about $10, I should say.” ‘ ‘And in a few moments she was & real heroine, for all the girls had ered around her with eager ques- tions and they gazed at her with such admiring sincere faces that: it was all she could do to control her mirth.

The. next day dawned clear and bright and at 10 o’clock the While Away Club was all assembled, like- wise the $3.75, which had been col- lected by each girl contributing 50 cents, so in due time a paper was prepared and as.a final gesture each girl attached her signature. This was. then put in an envelope, sealed, ad- dressea@ and then scurry; scurry, scurry, . to the postoffice, where the stamp was purchased and amid many “Bon voyages” and Farewells’. the ietter was deposited in the mailbox and the girls withdrew and patiently awaited results. 4 It was not long, either, before the monster dirigible departed from Ger- many for Lakehurst, from this point to Tokio, Japan, via Russia. From Japan to Los Angeles, and lastly back to Lakehurst, thus being the first dirigible to make a world flight. ‘Thus read the girls of the While Away Club 30 days following the mailing of the letter. Then, after much chattering and giggling, they gradually subsided into quiet, for their intuition told them that some- thing significant was about to hap- pen. In her mind each girl was think- ing, The letter! The letter! And in a few moments their thoughts were gratified, for Martha, the president, stepped to the front of the room, and in ner hand she held the precious let- ter! The reader may imagine what a tumult this produced. Each girl wished to feel it to see if it were a reality or merely a dream, and when the noise had ceased a bit Martha spoke: “Girls,” she said, ‘Swe really owe this - to our devoted friend, Ruth, who had , the wonderful idea which made this letter possible, and now,” she con- tinued, “I, too, have a suggestion to make.” She paused a moment, glanced at the ‘Interested faces confronting her, and said: “This morning at the _ breakfast table daddy said that he would give literally anything to possess a letter on the Graf Zep. I, offhandedly, asked how much he would give, and ‘he said as much as $25.” At this point the girls all looked wonderingly at each other and Martha smiled significantly, then concluded. “I immediately thought what a splen- did opportunity that would be for us to get some money, but said nothing about it, as I first wanted to consult you all, to see what you though about—”’ “Say, that’s enough!” interrupted Jane, hastily. “We all know what we want, and I think I can speak for all the girls in saying that we are more than willing and most grateful to ro Can't I, girls?” she stopped to as “You bet you can,” they all chor- used, and now let’s hurry to Martha’s father before he changes his mind.” “Hurrah for the Graf Zeppelin, the letter and the While Away Club,” they shouted in unison and out they ..campered, as cheerful .and py-- ‘hearted a group of girls as one would wish to see ROSALIE VAN AUKEN. 2900 Connecticut avenue, Outlawed.

Why, Molly Brown pays $10 and $15 for the dresses she wears to school! And here it is.

Of course, I was happy, for I had just had my last pitching lesson and now, after many, many ‘months of good, hard -practice; I was master of - @ perfectly good curve, a drop, @ fast ball and a knuckle Wall. But what was the use of knowing. how to pitch if I could never put my knowledge into practice, for the “boys of the Pairview .

I diday’t have much time to bother right then. because tomorrow the team was going to playa doubie- header with. some boys that camped up the river every summer and: was considered the best team for -miles around. .I was going to be-there, of. course, right in a front. seat.

The Fairview team had only two pitchers; Skeeter and Pudge. In the second inning Fudge knocked .a hot grounder to third base. If he siid he could beat the ball to first, and slide he did, but as he went to get up he turned white and fainted. He was carried off the field and found to have a sprained ankle. There was no one to send in the box but Skeeter. Now, it’s hard. enough for a boy. to pitch a nine-inning game without two additional innings, and then have another game to play. It was evident just as soon as he stepped into the box that he had no control. The Eagles scored exactly eight runs. — Chubby came running over.. “Say. Dorothy, come on and pitch this game, willya?” I hesitated, for now that the time had come I didn’t so much favor it. But I answered “‘Awright,” and we ran to the dugout. . “Here, put. on these spikes. You can wear this.cap,” were some of the cries that greeted me. Nervoypsly I obeyed. Fairview was at bat, but somehow they couldn’t seem to con- nect with the ball. , “Say, don’t get nervous, and re- member what I’ve taught you in the last six months,” was Skeeter’s re- minder as I ran onto the field. I sent the customary three balls to the catcher, and by this time the spectators were hooting sarcasm at the rate of 60 words a minute. The ended.. with the score of 8 to 6 in favor of the Eagles. I hadn’t won the game, but I had shown my worth as a pitcher and was stationed for regular pitching work. I was a reg’lar, full-fledged pitcher now. ROTHY CLARE (age 15). 1215 want street northwest.

STUDY YOUR LESSONS A Night in Fairyland. (Awarded One Dollar). I do not believe in fairies, emeept perhaps on a bright moonlight night, when the stars twinkle knowingly overhead. It was such a night, and as I sat by the window before going to bed I fell to dreaming of those far-off days in ancient Ireland when the De Danaans, those ancestors of ours who had such a wonderful power of en- ehantmient, had such a love for Erin that they could not t:ar themselves away from this lovely iand, and by their magic power changed them- selves into fairies And; it is firmly believed by our Irish children that those “fairy-folk” or “good people” still inhabit the “duns,” “lisses” and “forts” of our beautiful isle. I was suddenly startled from my reveries by the sound of a small voice saying: “So you half believe that we exist?” I nearly jumped out of my chair in astonishment. I looked around and perceived a little fairy standing on the floor, the sweetest little creature imaginable, just like those I had so often read about in fairy tales. She was dressed in an exquie site robe of shimmering green silk with frills and ruffles, caught up here and there with glittering jewels. On her head was a slender band of silver, on which shone a sparkling star that glinted and shone at every movement. She held a tiny wand in her hand, and this she waved grace- fully to and fro. I was spellbound and the noticing my bewildered look, ingly repeated her question. “Yes, I do,” I replied. -¢ “Then maybe you would like to see a fairy ball in Tir-na-nog?” she asked. I. assented. “But first you must become as small as the fairies,” she continued. She touched me with her fairy wand, end in a moment I became a charm- ing little elf. “Follow me,” she said, and im- mediately she was lightly flying through the air. To my surprise I found that I, too, had the power to fiy. I floated out of the window and following the fairy, I ascended to the sky. We soared up and up, but seemed ta.get no nearer the blue hee.vens. At last my guide noticed that I was getting tired, so she said: “Say ‘Fiddlesticks’ three times and we will reach the fairy palace.” I did so and immediately I found myself in a room crowded with fairies. A band was playing, and, most of the fairies were dancing. They paid no attention to me, and I remained quietly standing near the docr by which I had entered. Pres- ently a leprecaun came and asked me to dance with him. ‘I agreed, but oh! he was such a bad dancer. He stood on my toes and could not keep time to the music. At last he led me to a seat—a dainty little toad stool. Suddenly the orchestra stopped playing with a crash. I opened my eyes to find my mother shaking me.. “You fell asleep,” she said. When I told her of my dreams she asked fairy, laugh- ' me if I still disbelieved in fairies, but I shook my head. UNA BYRNE (age 9). Langley House, Kelvin Parade, Clif- tonville, Belfast, Ireland.

So there you are. I don’t think Doris cares especially or she wouldn’t have done it. Anyhow, we still-have Jo, Babs’ and Edith to call upon, and they’re our next best players, with Grace as a sub.” Just then Doris opened the door. “Weil, girls, I guess you’ve heard @bout my clash with Miss Dean?

Phosphorus is a yellowish waxy substance which glows in the dark. It has an odor of a burning match. Phosphorus is a very poisonous gas and is unsafe to handle unless un- der water. A very small dose of this means sure death. Until recently phosphorus was used only in matches, but this dread disease known as phossyjan bones has led to the prohibition of its use in most countries. When matches are produced all workmen engaged in the manufacture of phosphorus suffer from bone dis- ease. Phosphorus is necessary to the growth of plants and animals. Phos- phorus is in nearly every part of animals’ bodies. It is not found. in nature but exists.in plants and ani- mals and phosphorus rock.
