N.S.) —The sun went down beyond the Charles River basin ‘tonight, as it always does — after foot- ball games of the right kind, but no one looked at that hunk of fire. They had other things to watch. For out of the Massachusetts air, in the last minutes of.a game, surely among the greatest ever played in the Harvard Stadium, a youngster named Sam Burns took a leather bullet heaved at him by,his teammate, Bill Wood, and lu that leather bullet right over the Army line, right into foot- bali glory. And, an amazed score- board read Harvard 20, Army 20. But, that scoreboard, being a New England scoreboard, could not very well register sufficient enthusiasm to tell the story of those closing min- utes of the game between Arnold Hor- ween's Crimson warriors and the Mil- .. itarists, whom Biff Jones brought to Massachusetts today.

But. footbalis some times do such things, and that one did. It settled right into those erimson arms and stayed there. And then Bill Wood stood back and kicked, and the score was tied. Harvard had battled the Soldiers even up in the first period, had climbed in the second quarter to a good 13-point lead. But the Army took the third period as Cagle got going, and Harvard was looking into the teeth of a 14-13 lead when that period was over Then, the dashing militarist from the Southland added another 6 points, and things looked blue, indeed almost a Yale blue, when Horween sent his camera back field into action.

By DAVID RANKIN BARBEE. Little did President Hoover dream, when he promised more than twelve _| months ago that he would call Con-~- gress in session for “a limited revision of ghe tariff,” that = year and prob- ably longer would be consumed in writing the changes necessary to bring the Fordney-McCumber act up to date. The ways and means committee began hearings on January. 7 last. Ten months have passed and the Senate is in a muddle over the bill as the finance committee has recast it. The prospects are that it will not be passed during this extra session, which has been wang since early last April. The bill will, in all probability, be carried over to the regular session, which convenes December 1. And the Lord only knows how long it will be ° then before a yote is reached, before the conference committees have ironed out the differences between the two houses and before. the bill is signed or vetoed: But this is not the only tariff bill that has been a year in the making. The Fordney-McCumber act was twenty months in, the mill. It has been 140 years since James Madison introduced the first tariff bill, and since thet epochal event there have. been many tariff bills to occupy, the time and talent of Con- gress and of the commercial and man- ufacturing and political gentlemen who have more than a passing interest in money m.asures.

When Staples was.dismissed from thé force after a_sensational trial. in | March, -1928, Blanton, his counsel, chafged that he had been “framed” because of valuable information he gave the Gibson subcommittee rela- tive to gambling and bootlegging here, Staples now is back in Washington after an absence of eight months.. In- terviewed in the downtown section last night, he said that, while he didn’t want to inject himself into the present investigation, he would gladly go before the Sackett subcommittee. It was recalled last night that Staples was reported to have valuable information on the death of Head- quarters Detective Arthur Schrivener. While that crime was being investi- gated three years ago, Staples started to go before Judge Peyton Gordon, then district attorney, and tell him what he knew. Staples said afterward that when high police officials heard of his in- tention to talk to Gordon, they called him in and threatened to throw him off the force unless he kept his mouth closed. Staples had a spectacular career as @ policeman. He. started off as a member of the Park Police. Following a row with his superior, Capt. Morris, over the arrest of a general's debu- tante daughter, Staples was demoted from motorcycle man to footman. Convinced that Staples was being persecuted, Blanton had him trans- 'ferreq to the Metropolitan Police Force. Soon he was in the limelight again. Not long after Frederick A.

The Democratic-Progressive : coali- tion in the Senate again passed the debenture farm relief plan yesterday, 42 to 34, this time tacking it onto the tariff bill. Opinion was divided as to whether this insured the death of the tariff bill or a continuation of the fight, involving as it does, the split in the Republican ranks, in the regu- lar session. In the vote which was preceded by comparatively little debate, the coali- tion gained a recruit, Senator Thomas. of Idaho, won back two who had strayed from the fold and lost an- ‘other. The final count showed 31 Republicans and three Democrats against the proposal while fourteen progressives joined with 28 Democrats for it. The vote follows: For the debenture:.

It was only in the past week that the determination of the coalition to revive the debenture manifested it- self. Senator Brookhart, of Iowa, had been saying he planned to introduce it as a provision of the tariff bill, but there was strong counsel against such action. Choose Norris Proposal. Almost overnight, however, the coalition agreed to put it into the bill, but chose instead the proposal of Senator Norris, of Nebraska. It is unlike the provision that the coall- tion inserted in the farm relief bill Wagner, for. a _ Ship- last spring in that it provides the |>°0y two weeks ago. debentures will be paid to the Farm Board for use in stabilizing crops. The debenture would be one-half of: the tariff duty on a farm commodity ex- ported from this country. For ex- ample, the duty on wheat coming into the country is 42 cents a bushel. For every bushel shipped out a debenture of 21 cents would be paid to the Farm Board. The belief is general that should the: bill reach the President in this} form that he would veto it. He is op- posed, in the first place, to the change that has already been made by the Senate in the flexible provisions whereby the flexible power is taken from him and returned to Congress. There is a question as to whether he would veto the bill on this score, however. House Stand iDscussed. There is believed to be none what- soever as to what he would do with it with the debenture provision. There is. however, the serious question of whether the bill will ever get to him.

SUBPENAS ARE ISSUED ‘FOR GANG’S BANKERS}. ‘Code Account’ Revealed Among Papers Found at Headquarters. AGENTS TAPPED WIRES OF ‘WET’ STRONGHOLD Methods Used in Round-Up’ of Syndicate Are Bared for First Time. New York, Oct. 19 (N.Y.W.NS.).— The three unapprehended ringleaders of the giant rum trust, which has been shattered by Federal authorities of New York and New Jersey, have been “cornered,” according to William J. Calhoun, prohibition administrator of New Jersey, and will doubtless sur- render within a few hours. This was the one tangible announce- ment made tgday by the Government's gerieral in the huge antismuggling coup. It became known through As- sistant United States Attorney Watts, however, that two banks, the Bank of America, in New York, and the Federal Trust Co., of Newark, N. J., had been subpenaed. Members of the rum gang had accounts in these two institutions and Federal authorities believe the records of these accounts will be interesting. The three outstanding czars of the liquor organization, whose arrests are imminent, are the brothers, Al and William Lilien, and James Murphy. According to Mr. Calhoun, Murphy has long been known in beer running channels as the “Houdini” of .the trade, in that he always. managed to steer clear of the law. Calhoun eaid he was the_traf_ic manager of the ring, routing ships and. trucks. Brothers Heaviest Backers. The others, Al and William, are painted by New Jersey’s léading pro- hibjtionists as being the master minds of the gigantic ring, as well as the heaviest investors. From the records and books seized at the gang’s business offices, at 25 West Forty- third street, it was revealed that the brothers received the lion’s share of the profits, which were as much as $2,000,000 in six montha. With the arrest of those three men, who are alleged to have guided the biggest combination of smugglers in the history of prohibition, the Gov- ernment will have rounded up all of those in this country who formed the Organization. Thirty-four men were named in the indictment handed dowp last Tuesday by the Trenton Federal grand jury, and 26 have been accounted for. There remain only a few, such as’ Capt. John MacLeod, master of the Shawnee, who are not ‘thought to be in the United states. Small Boats Known. Besides the men arrested, the au- thorities captured .the fortified head- quarters of the ring, at Highlands N. J., a roadhouse, alleged to have been run by them at Sag Harbor, Long Island, their offices on Forty- third street and their radio station. There only remains the fleet of freighters and small boats. Mr. Calhoun said that the small boats believed to belong to the or- ganization jad been photographed in the Wheeler Shipyards, Brooklyn, and that their namcs were known to him He said that one of these ships was sunk “in a fight with coast guards in the Raritan River near Perth Am- The Wheeler Shipyard was formerly owned by Will- lam V. Dwyer, who has served a term in Atlanta for a liquor violation, and who was known as a rum king. Federal officers have had no luck so far in linking’ “Scarface” Al Capone, Chicago gangster, now serv- ing a sentence in Pennsylvania for carrying concealed weapons, with the large Jersey rum ring. The only evidence that he was in any way connected with the combine was a notation in the little black book found at the Forty-third street ad- dress of the gang, which showed that he had given them a check for $1,500 on. which payment had later been stopped. Code Account Disclosed, Nor is there any basis for the rumor that the kidnaping of Willard Elliott, former vice president of the Hobart Trust Co., of Passaic, N. J., had any- thing to do with this gang, Calhoun said. Despite this positive denial, however, Assistant Prosecutor James M. Dunn, in Patterson, N. J., today admitted that Department of Justice agehts are in Passaic investigating ‘the possibilities of such a connection. CONTINUED ON PAGE 16. COLUMN 3. CRESCENT LIMITED—Te Atlanta, New ——.

According to his alibi, Robert Mc- Pherson visited at the home of his uncle between midnight and 1 o’clock on the night of September 12, the night during which Virginia McPher- son is believed to have been slain. It is believed the Federal agents were keenly interested in hearing McPher- son’s uncle and aunt relate the de- taila of this visit. These various relatives were ‘also interrogated closely, it is understood, with regard to théir knowledge of young McPherson's temperament and characteristic traits, as well as the relationships which existed between him and Virginia. The Government investigators ie questioned nufherous employes of the Park Lane, where Virginia McPherson maintained their apartment, on the floor of which her body was found by her husband, the-cord of her silken pajama coat twisted five times about her throat and knotted.

Absolute op- position to the abolition of subma- rines as defensive weapons of war the interdependency of the prob- lems of limiting naval, aerial and land armaments inside the scope of a general disarmament agreement are two principles for which the French delegation to the naval disarmament conference in London next January will probably stand unflinchingly, Such is the impression which re- ‘sults from conversations in govern- mental, official, parliamentary and even opposition circles.

The United States and Japan plan to carry on diplomatic exchanges, which probably will be climaxed by,® visit here of the Japanese delegation, in an effort to reach a preliminary understanding of the empire’s cruiser and especially her submarine require- ments before the London naval con- ference opens in January.

The United States will keep out of that, but may collaterally discuss the submarine and in any case the Japanese-Ame?- ican exchanges will be fully disclosed to Italy, France and Engiand, the same candor of diplomatic inter- changes that characterized the Anglo- American discussions this summer— and for the same purpose; to svold any suspicion of secret agreements, alliances or schemings. While the United States has no . is Yelt that it is essential to get-a full rather than to await the conference, as America’s is to England's, Japan has complained that the proposed Anglo-American cruiser levels are so high that it compels her to build more than she wishes or can afford in order to maintain her relative sea strength.

The United States will hold that its preying upon mer- chant ships is an evil that should be condemned by the civilized world. Japan asked for 70,000 tons of sub- marines at Geneva in 1927, as against 90,000 for Great Britain and the Unit- ed States.” She came down to 80,000 tons later with a proportional cut for the others.

Chairman Gosnell announces the appointment of the follow cap- tains of the teams which will cover every section of Washi District, which has been laid out into zones. The committee will, it is understood, extend its canvass into other sections, especially the business sections of the county. The tains are John Petty, Morton McDonald, Walter Marcey, Reese O’Neill, John A. —- A. B: Honts, C. C. Donaldson, Frank F. Williams, Robert EB. Jansen, -Hugh Reid, Robert Anderson, Ernest Rath. J. H. Jenkins, Luther Strobe] and 6. L. Beattie, ? Gosnell issued the following state- ment: “During the year 1930 the Cherry~- dale Fire Department, Inc., will cele- brate its twenty-fifth anniversary. It is the oldest volunteer fire depart- ment in Arlington County and is anxious to celebrate its quarter of a century of service by paying off the present indebtedness on the fire de- partment building. This building was constructed at a cost of approxi- mately $35,000. It is the duty of every citizen served hy this depart~ ment to contribute as liberally as possible toward the fund to retire th edebt. The individual members of the fire department have made. many sacrifices in order to furnish this atea with adequate fire protection, and I am sure when the campaign closes that the full amount of. the $5,000 will have been raised. “It should be borne in mind that those who operate the department and fight the fires at all hours of the day and night and in all kinds of weather receive no compensation whatever, although they have a most excellent record of promptness and efficiency. “Each member of the committees will be provded with an official let- ter, signed by the chairman of the drive, Fred A. Gosnell, and the treas- urer, A. B. Honts, with the official seal of the department.” With Arlington County in the midst of one of the largest road building programs the citizens are becoming alarmed over the lack of sidewalks, especially along Wilson boulevard, Wilson School and on to Rosslyn. Not only is this condition existing along the Wilson boulevard but also along Mount Vernon avenue and the Lee highway. With the three roads, the leading ones, in the county being widened, the danger to the lives of the school children. as well as the grown-ups, will increase. From feliable information it is learned that 5,700 feet of four-foot sidewalk can be laid for $4,000 and it being estimated according to Coun- ty Engineer C. L. Kinnier that Arling- ton districts share for sidewalk con- struction according to budget extend- ing from July 1, 1929, to June 30, 1930, will be $5,000, there appears no be laid. It is further understood that many of the property owners along the Wli- son boulevard who gave property to -/ allow for widening are willing to co- operate on a 50-50 basis with the county in the laying of the sidewalk. Taking the 50-50 basis, Arlington district can have $10,000 worth of sidewalks laid, or more than 244 miles. Fire of unknown origin destroyed the stables of R. L. Ruben in Claren- don, at an early hour yesterday with an estimated damage of $1,000. . With the flames leaping high, citi- zens became alarmed, the fire being in the heart of the business section, but the firemen soon had the fire under control before it haq any chance of spreading. The records in the office of County Commissioner of Revenue Harry K. Green show that during the past week there have been issued five cer- tificates for new buildings repre- senting an expenditure of $29,200. At a largely attended meeting held yesterday in Mount Olivet Methodist Church at Ballston, the Loyal Tem- perance Legion, sponsored by the Waverly Hills Womans’ Christian Temperance Union, was organized with the election of the following officers: Beverley Hodges, president; Stewart Johnston, vice president: Frances Hodges, secretary; Elizabeth Ball, treasurer, and John Hodges, sergeant at arms. Mrs. L. J. Clark, of the senior organization, has been chosen superintendent. The legion will hold weekly meetings each Sat- urday afternoon. The Lyon Park Community Center will hold its annual meeting and election of officers tomorrow night in the community house at 8 o'clock.

It isn’t a slum question. It is always going to be disobeyed by some class of people. What I want to do is to try to gain the of the influential people by persuasion and example. I am not speaking against the report, but would like to see it presented in other way.” The report set out that lawlessness is.one ofthe Nation’s most gigantic evils. | “The conspicuous inatance of law- lessness now before us is the wide- spread defiance ‘of the eighteenth amendment,” it said. The Nation’s Capital, the report continues, “is a striking illustration of the fact. It is reported that men in prominent places drink openly at banquets and mey highly respected make sport of the law; that women in select circles serve liquor at their dinners; and that prominent men make a joke at the success of the bootleggers. “Some Christian laymen are to be found in this guzzling company and some preachers who now and then —? to take their place upon that side.” | A memorial to the general con-' ference of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, asking the enactment of a law to require missionary bishops to maintain an actual and continu- ous residence in the field to which they are assigned, was adopted to- day by a vote of 179 for and 68 against. The proposal of the memorial re- sulted in a long and sharp debate. Proponents of the measure disclaimed any intention to criticize any of the present prelates of the church. The memoria) introduced yester- day, ee to prohibit ministers from participating in gp boon poli- tics, was ruled out of order today by the committee on memorials. The conference took’ no action on the resolution in the absence of its geu- thor, Fred C. Abbott, lay delegate from Norfolk. The report on dry activities says that, in view of the “well-organized and bigny financed movement on the part of the wet forees and their apparent success in somé States, it is expedient that the Christian peo- le should bestir themselves as never fore, and it is no time to quibble, compromise or turn back.” In its opening. remarks the report says, “As a poor we have little respect for law. é final outcome is certainly in doubt.” Many preachers, the report con- tinues, are silent on prohibition “be- cause “they know th esubject is not popular and they may stir up feel- ing which, they think, may do erm.” Lawlessness is said by the report to be especially dangerous for democ- Tacy, “for in a democracy our only security lies in obedience to the law. There is nothing else between us and anarchy.” The report points out that a man may honestly work to repeal the law, but that he must not disobey it. “A Christian American,” it con- tinued, “is well within his rights when he criticises ‘a law he does not believe in and does his best to have it changed, but a man is not a good churchman nor a good citizen when he habitually breaks the law. We must, therefore, insist that the laws be obeyed and enforced.” State repeal of the prohibition law was characterized by the report as a “stand strategy to. get as many States as possible to repeal their dry enforcement codes, and then present the claims of these States to Congress a8 an argument for the modification or repeal of the eighteenth: amend- ment.” “The Association Against the Eight- eenth Amendment,” continues the re- port, “published a Mst of their 150 directors on June 1, 1929. They. claim that these diréctors assist in admin- igterfng 840,000,000,000 assets and in the employment of more than 2,000,- 000 men and women. “It has been stated upon authority that three of thees directors are from Virginia and that the association has &® voluntary committee in Richmond. composed of prominent and influen- tial business men, soliciting funds to eral manager of the National Oil Co.. whose application for a permit to erect storage tanks for gasoline and oil on the N.

Mrs. Conway at first was believed to be a strong advocate of the sul- cide theory advanced by the police and accepted by the .coroner’s jury, but it is believed that recently she has altered her views and now be- lieves that Virgina McPherson was murdered. It s believed that this reversal of opinion was caused by some new evidence which has come to Conway’s attention, and that it was regarding this additional information that she was quizzed by the Federal agents again terday. Mrs. Billy Lindsay, the nurse who was a former resident of the Park Lane, and who was believed to have been en. intmaye friend of Virginia McPherson, is expected to reach Washington t from New York for questioning by the agents of the Department of Justice. Analysis Reports Awaited. It is considered extremely doubt- ful that she will be able to cast any light upon the mystery of the trag- edy, however; because her departure from the Park Lane preceded the strangling of Virginia McPherson by almost two weeks. However, the operatives are inter- ested to learn what light Mrs. Lind- say may be able to shed on the matrimonial affairs of the McPhersons and on the identities and relation- ships of various visitors to the Mc-: Pherson domicile. | The report on the chemical analy- ssi performed on the v a of Mrs. McPherson. by Dr. James I. Bullitt, professor of pathology at the Uni- versity of North Carolina, ha not yet been received by the Department of Justice, but is expected tomorrow. At the same time, it is expected that study of the X-ray pictures made of the body at the second autopsy, per- formed at Kannapolis, N. C., last Monday, will be completed ar in the hands of the Department of Jus- woe. Reports Findings Problematical Both of these reports were expected yesterday. Whether they will con- firm or contradict the present find- ings of the autopsy, which disclosed. no injuries other than the marks of the pajama cord on the girl's throat, is problematical. | The Department of Justice ig par- ticularly interested in the report of the chemical analysis as disclosing whether or not there were any traces of drugs or poison in the girl’s body. William E. Leahy, counsel] for de- fense, yesterday offered the Depart- ment of Justice rmission to ex- amine young McPherson in his cell at the District Jail. Officials of the department, however, while they ex- pressed appreviation for this soopera- tion, indicated that McPherson might not be interviewed until all other wit- nesses have been quizzed, which will probably take another two weeks. Jones Challenges Democrats’ Work Calls on Pollard to Show _ What Byrd’s Party Has Done for State. Harrisonburg, Va., Oct. 19—Callom B. Jones, of Richmond, Republican candidate for lieutenant governor, in his first appearance before Rocking- ham voters here today charged that “Democratic organization” has ing of new industries by offering cheap labor than it had been in aild- ing the industries already establish- ed, and in contributing to the gen- eral welfare of the people. Jones quoted figures which he said proved that the ming, iron, man- ganese, cement and coal industries in Virginia are on the decline, some of them at the point of being wiped out. He challenged Dr. Garland Pollard, Democratic candidate, who speaks here Monday, to declare what the “Democratic program of progress” has done for the old industries of the State; whet it has done to improve genera] living conditions, and what it has done to improve the educa- tional system.

Post: “ SUNDAY, ‘OCTOBER |The T now seems fairly definitely set- tled that the Republican regulars and Progressives are to take their party quarrel out on the plains of Nebraska for a test of the electorate. No better stage could be selected. ‘Here the leader, or the coleader of the Progressive movement, Senator Nor- ris, will be the issue. Norris expressed the intention ‘a year or so ago to retire at the end of his present term, possibly to run for governor and seek to give his State the model government that he has visualized for the country as a whole. And he is said still to be reluctant to run for the Senate again. But if the regulars make him the issue, there is no doubt that he will accept it and fight to return to the body in which he has so long served, e* © s ® ND the regulars plan to make him an issue. Former Gov. Mc- Kelvie, now & member of the Federal Farm Board, is determined either to run himself or to see that some other administration man runs. The issue is to be, regardless of who runs, the Hoover administration or the Norris insurgency. The indications are that the admin- istration mantle will fall on McKelvie himself. It is hard to see, in fact, just where the administration could get a stronger man. McKelvie has been an administration man through- out this whole farm fight. He sup- ported Coolidge in his veto of the McNary-Haugen bill, and he was the Hoover leader in the Nebraska cam- Pr paign. Listenin g ‘Post By CARLISLE BARGERON N the Nebraska primary fight last I year, McKelvie opposed Norris and got some of the delegates to the Kansas City convention. The Pro- gressive’s explanation of this has al- ways been that it was the popularity of the particular men that he set up| as delegates and not because of any strength of his own, but he did, at any rate, prevent Norris from having a solid slate. That he could go out and defeat the venerable senator next year re- mains. of course, to be determined. It is believed that he would make the strongest fight. | . e HE most national interest would 4 attach to such a campaign, how- ever. because of the issue in- volved. Whether it is McKelvie or some one else who is designated to carry the administration cause, the administration intends to get solidly behind him. The regulars plan to send their best senators into the State and, in fact, to leave no stone unturned in their effort to win. Mr. Hoover is not the man to let the present situa- tion go along unchallenged and, in fact, it its difficult to see that he could, even if he were so minded. His administration will be a badly torn rag at the end if something isn't done. If Norris could be defeated in Nebraska then the backbone of the Progressive movement will have been broken. To defeat him, however, is some- thing else The throwing down of the gantlet the administration means that, course, the Progres- sives, one and, all, will go into Nebraska in Norris’ behalf, and not improbably, some Democrats as well. There would seem to be a realiza- tion that this test is coming in the ogressives’ increasing determination on the tariff bill.

STRANGLER VISITED BY MOTHER IN JALL Mrs. Dayton Tells “Dexie” Not to Worry Over Her Plight. CALLS TROUBLE “TEST” Undaunted by the boy’s alleged confession to the strangling of Miss Marjory O'Donnell. Mrs. Edith . P. Dayton, of Kansas City, spent more than an hour yesterday with her only fet Dexter C. Dayton, in the District ail. Although overcome with grief upon seeing her boy behind the bars, Mrs. Dayton soon. regained her composure and vegan whispering words of en- couragement. to her son whom she still thinks of as a little boy and affectionately refers to as “Dexie.” Young Dayton obviously was over- joyed because his mother had come to Washington to share his troubles, but during their visit the love of the mother was predominant. Tells “Dexie” Not to Worry. Throughout their visit, which was a touching scene, Mrs. Dayton acted like a mother who was ready to for- give and forget, She told “Dexie” not to worry about her and assured him that his troubles were her troubles, and that she was far from being ashamed of him. Dayton held his mother’s hand throughout their visit, but seemed bewildered and ashamed as she show- ered him with pats and caresses. After the visit, Mrs: Dayton seemed almost buoyant with joy. “I feel just like I had tucked Dexie in bed,” she said, as she left the jail. She expressed confidence concern- ing the outcome of the forthcoming trial of her boy, and stated she was eeply touched by the kindnesses which have been shown her since ar- rival here. Surprised at Drinking. Mrs. Dayton willingly talked about her boy, his industry and ambitions. She expressed great surprise at the report about his drinking. “Why, I thought Dexie couldn't keep liquor on his stomach,” she said. “He never let me know that he drank.” Then she told about how Dexter became very ill when his face was smeared with liquor during his initiation into a.club at Kansas City, when he was in his teens.

Later Staples was haled before the trial board on a charge of failing to pay a real estate debt. Blanton ap- peared as his counsel and he was ac- quitted. In March, 1928, Staples was taken before the trial board on 11 charges, ranging from a charge of accepting @ bribe to one of intimidating and insulting two women. The trial board found him guilty of five of the 11 charges, but the Commissioners reduced the number to three. When the verdict was announced, Blanton was furious and again cried out that Staples had been framed.

She started on the stage and soon developed into an operatic star. Miss Winston gained national fame with her opera troupe which toured the United States and introduced opera in the Rocky Mountain region. With @ special railway coach for transporting her musicians, Miss Winston visited all the principal cities of the Nation and won popular favor on the Pacific Coast. She came to Washington about 2886, and it was here she scaled the operatic heights. Her every appearance filled the Al- baugh Opera House to overflowing. She was a special favorite with the diplomatic corps and high Govern- ment officials. President Cleveland was a regular attendant at her per- formances. During her career, Miss Winston played leading roles in many operas, including “Queen's Lace Handker- chief,” “The Bohemian Girl,” “I) Tro- vatore,” “Chimes of Normandy,” ‘The Halls of Montezuma.” and many oth- ers, but she attained her greatest fame in “Fra Diavolo.” Between 18686 and 18094, this versa- tile. young Scotch actress, came to Washington every season and played before packed houses. She visited New York, Philadelphia, Boston, Chi- cago, San Franciscoc and Victoria, British Columbia, each year in those days, and everywhere she was popu- lar, but Washington was her favorite stand. As a consequence when the time came, years afterwards, to re- tire, she stole back to Wahhington to live. She bought a little house here at first, and with her piano, books, pictures and mementos from friends far away, she settled down for a quiet life. In recent years, she had lived in an apartment which was a popular gathering place for her old friends and admirers. Like many another who is courted and loved by thousands, Jeannie Win- ston lived a rather secluded life, even in her most successful years. Though she was feted, praised in verses and was the recipient of many lovely gifts, little was ever really known of her personal life, so aloof did she hold herself. Miss Winston's last appearance at the old Albaugh’s, on the present site of Poli’s Theater, was in 1894, but her gorgeous costumes and lovely, lilting. lyric voice is remembered by many long time residents of Wash- ington. with the are Model Battle.

The jury reached its decision on the fifth ballot and reported to Judge A. M. Stack, that O. G. Moorehead, Carl Holloway, Dewey Carver and Hor- ace Lane, all of Gastonia, were not guilty of taking Wells and two other organizers from a Gastonia rooming house and beating Wells at a spot near Concord, almost 50 miles distant. The abduction of the men followed the formation of an anti-Comniunist mob in Gastonia on the night of Sep- tember 9, which staged a demonstra- tion and invaded labor headquarters in Gastonia, Bessemer City and Char- lotte. Trial of the four men was begun Thursday and was featured by the fact that they presented almost 50 witnesses in establishing thelr alibis. the coalition leaders profess to be- lieve that the summer vacations may: have brought a change of heart of some of the House members. The impression has been until the last two or three days, in fact, that the determination of the coalition to put the debenture in the tariff bill ‘was with a view to. loading it down with go many features objectionable to the administration that when the compromising stage was reached it could reluctantly yield on the deben- ture, for example,-and make a stand on the flexible provision. Following conferences during the week between the President, Repub- lican and: Democtatic leaders and Senator Borah, however, there has been the suggestion that there is a realization on all sides that the bill can not be passed before the regular session, and that although the Presi- dent objects to its going into the regular session, the coalition is de- termined to take it there, No Intimation of Veto. .- must find work in order to stay with her boy.

It ig believed that the pros- ecutors. will ask for a _ first-degree anna charge and the death pen- alty.

Close, president of the council. A Meeting of the executive committee Was held Friday evening to discuss the program for the meeting. Among the subjects to be discussed at the council meeting will be the proposal to inaugurate nutrition clin- fes in the county schools, the plans for a traveling library, the police sit- uation in the county and other im- portant matters, Dr. Close said. One of the important features of this meeting. will be the election of of- ficers. The council also will discuss affiliation with the Interfederation Council. Dr. H. J.

Mandamus proceedings to force the the Prince Georges County Commis- sicners to issue a permit to erect a gasoline filling station at Laure] have been filed in the Circuit Court at . Upper Marlboro by T. Howard Duck- ‘with the town authorities. ett, attorney for the Penn Realty Co. Duckett claims in his petition that the action of the commissioners in refusing to issue a permit had acted “heyond the contemplation of the law” and claims that the commis- sioners can sit only in a ministerial capacity and are without discretion tin stich matters. He further points out that another filling station is located on the corner opposite the corner which his clients wish to build on. The property is on the corner of Montgomery avenue and the Balti- mote boulevard in Laurel. The resi- dents of the town opposed the peti- tion of the realty company for a per- mit to build on the ground that the proposed site is opposite a church. After a public hearing the commis- sioners refused the permit. . The petition further claims that the action of the commissioners is depriving the realty company of the use of its land without due process of law, contrary to the Constitution of the United States, the Maryland bill of rights and the constitution of the State of Maryland. The date of hear- ing on the petition has been set for October 29 by Judge Joseph C. Mat- tingly. Demurrer to the suit of Benjamin Noel, proprietor of a pool room, against the mayor and council of Capitol Heights for assault and false arrest filed on behalf of the town of- ficials by State Senator Lansdale G. Sasscer, has been sustained by Judge Joseph C. Mattingly in Circuit Court of Upper Marlboro. The dismissal does not affect the status of the suit against Deputy Sheriff Edgar Poe, of Capitol Heights, who was sued jointly Poe also is town marshal. Noel charges that he was unjustly arrested by Poe and that the latter assaulted him in making the arrest. He asked $5,000 damages. Noel is rep- resented by former State’s Attorney J. Wuson Ryon.

Price, Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor, discusse the issues of the campaign, Charles Osburn, vice chalr- man of the Loudoun County Demo- cratic committee, presided. State Sen- ator Cecil Connor introduced Dr. Pollard and Delegate Wilbur C. Hall, of Leesburg, introduced Price. Dr. Pollard’s address dealt mainly with an open letter to Dr. Brown call- ing on Dr. Brown to desist from con- tinual ‘“misrepresentation” of a.speech he made in 1913 attacking election laws in Virginia and “seeking to make audiences believe that what he said sixteen years ago applies to election laws existing now.” Dr. Pollard said: “At first I thought Dr. Brown was ignorant of facts that election laws had since been changed but now we are driven to the con- clusion that Dr. Brown is indulging in inexcusable misrepresentation.” _ Dr. Pollarti took up the statement made by Dr. Brown in a recent ad- dress in Purcellville, in which Dr. Brown said that the State highway commissioners books had not been audited in the past eight years. Dr. Pollard read a letter from Highway Commissioner Shirley, in which he said that the State accountant has examined accounts every year and certified to their correctness. The main feature of Price’s address was the short ballot. He said it is untrue that the short ballot was put over on the people of Virginia, that the people decided that they would make an experiment of having three officials appointed by the governor, and that, while he opposed the short ballot, he “bows to the will of the people,” and is not willing to call the experiment a failure until it has been tried. - Both Price and Dr. Pollard empha- sized the record of the Byrd admin- istration and promised that it would continue by the election of the pres- ent ticket.

ANOTHER CAR CAPSIZES Two persons were injured, a bus and an automobile were totally de- stroyed and a third man, who had nothing to do with the bus accident, found himself in the toils of the law yesterday morning as the result of two accidents near Beltsville, on the Baltimore boulevard. The injured are Eugene H. Simp- son, 29 years old, and his wife, Mrs. Mabel A. Simpson, 28, both of 820 Connecticut avenue northwest, who were treated at Casualty Hospital for minor injuries. They were taken to the hospital in the automobile of W. T.

Both the car and the bus careened from the road, with the private car be- neath the bus. Two Machines Are Burned. The smaller machine then caught fire and soon caused a blaze in the bus. Both cars were totally demol- ished following explosions of their gasoline tanks According to police, the occupants of the sedan, two white men and two Negresses, crawled from their car and disappeared. Maryland State police have been unable to trace them. The bus was operated by Oscar L. Houser, of Baltimore, who was uninjured. Four other passengers, William G. Baker, of 3114 Fourteenth street northwest, and Charles M. Robinson, Seventh street southeast near Second street, both of Washington; Preston F. Kidwell, of Baltimore, and Vernon Davis, jockey'’s room, Laurel Race Track, were not in- jured. The accident was investigated by Maryland State Policemen M. D. Bru- baker and W. T. Booker, of the Laurel substation. Driver Righted Own Car. While on his way to the accident Booker noticed a light car which had overturned at the side of the road, but seeing no occupant he continued to the bus accident. After completing the bus inquiry he returned to the scene of the other accident to find, to his surprise, that the car was gone. A short way farther he found the car moving under its own power in a pe- cullar manner, and he stopped it for investigation. The driver, Thomas V. Mullahey, of Baltimore, was arrested on charges of operating an automobile while under the influence of liquor and reckless driving. After the upset, Mullahey had righted his car and driven on, police say.

T. C., will shortly be completely uni- formed, measurements having been taken during the last week for a num- ber of newly enrolled cadets for the gray uniform which has been pre- ascribed. Considerable interest has been shown by the cadets in the recent platoon contests, the first of which was held Wednesday, when the pla- toons were ranged in their numerical order as to neatness. ‘The test of the following day placed the third piat- oon, commanded by Cadet Violette, in first place; the second platoon, un- der the command of Cadet Wells, in second place, and the first platoon, commanded by Cadet Parker, was placed last. The proposed adoption of a uni- form overcoat for those students who may desire them, is now under con- sideration and Principal Moncure has stated that he will approve of its adoption only with the understanding that no pressure will be brought to bear upon any student to purchase one, it being felt that the expense of the uniform is all that should properly be assessed against the ca- dets. If the overcoat is adopted, one of civilian cut will prébably be se- lected, so that the student, upon severing his connection with the cadet corps, could make use of it as a civilian coat merely by changing the brass buttons for civilian, The Robert Le Bruce Chapter, Or- der of DeMolay, of Washington, con- ferred the initiatory and DeMolay degrees of their order upon a class of fifteen last night in the George Washington Masonic National Tem- ple.

Special to The Washington Post, Winchester, Va., Oct..19.—There is only one issue in the Virginia politi- cal campaign this fall, James H. Price, Richmond, Democratic nominee for lieutenant-governor, told a mass meeting here today, and that is whether the people will by their bal- lots continue the policy of progress, efficiency and economy in govern- mental affairs, or turn the State gov- ernment’s administration over to a group of inexperienced and perhaps inefficient and incapable politicians. He said the present progressive gov- ernment in Virginia was the result of successive Democratic administra- tions. Candidates on the coalition ticket headed by Dr. William Moseley Brown, he said, were seeking to divert the minds of voters by injecting so- called national questions into the State campaign. He warned that “ycal may think it is the voice of Jacob you hear, but it is the hand of Esau that is at work.” Price paid tribute to Gov. Byrd’s record the past four years. He was introduced by T. Russell Cather, Commonwealth attorney here.

Danville,- Va., Oct. 19.—Senator William E. Borah, of Idaho, has ex- pressed readiness to be of service to the Southern tobacco growers who, in Virginia and North Carolina, are complaining of marketing conditions and the law price faid for their to- bacco. In answer to a telegraphed request by W. G. Holman, of Greensboro, N. C., who ts leading the protesting movement by the farmers, the Idaho senator wired: “T shall be very glad to cooperate in any way to serve the cause of the tobacco growers.” . Holman, in appealing to Borah for his personal interest, stressed “not only your power and influence in the Senate, but because of its psychologi- cal effect on the heartless tobacco companies.” The growers continue to hold local mass meetings and to adopt resolu- tions asking senators and represent- atives to launch some investigation of the tobacco situation. Locally, however, the situation is improving. The average price of to- bacco this week is $17.24 per 100 pounds, against $14.40 last week.

Clark, clerk to the county commisioners. The four issues are al] that. remain of the issues authorized .by the last ses- sion of the General Asembly. County officials are confident that the bonds will command good prices inasmuch as the National City Co., which has purchased all of the other county bonds offered this year by Montgomery County, has expressed the opinion that tnasmuch as there are no other issues to be sold that this should increase the asalability of the forthcoming issues. The act of. the National City Co. in offering what has been consé'c?l very good prices for the county bonds so far and its interest in the issues now on hand, is interpreted as a high esteem for the financial posi- tion of the county and the probity of tts officials.

One group of the bonds is the $130,000 issue for the new courthouse at Rockville.

' A second issue is for $25,000 and is to be known as ‘Montgomery County, Secend and Eleventh Elec- tion District road bonds.” These bonds are to be dated November 1, 1929, and are to bear interest at the rate of 44% per cent per annum and ere to be redeemable $1,000 each year be- ginning November 1, 1930 and each November 1 thereafter until the en- tire serlés is retired. The other two series are road bonds and are to be known as “Montgomery County road bonds of 1929, first series,"" and Montgomery County road bonds of 1929, second series,” re- spectively. The first series is for $475,000 and the second series is for $200,000. The bonds of both series will: be dated November 1, 1929 and will bear-interest at the rate of 41% per cent per annum, payable semi- annually at the Montgomery National Bank of Rockville, for the first series, and the Farmers’ Banking & Trust Co., of Rockville, for the second series, on the first days of May and Novem- ber in each year.

The second series will be redeemed as follows: 84,000 in 1939 to 1948 in- clusive; $6,000 in 1949 to 1958 in- clusive, and $10,000 in 1959 to 1968 inclusive.

S, Engineers Have Fin- : ished Boundary Work, Ex- _ cept in Albemarle Tract. ' - ORCHARD SITES AVOIDED Special to The Washington Post, Harrisonburg, Va. Oct. 19.—United States Government engineers today completed the survey and marking of the boundary liines in Rockingham and Augusta Counties of the proposed Shenandoah National Park and Mon- day will start work on the boundary ‘survey to be made in Albemarle County the only county in the park area in which boundary lines have not been definitely established Two corps of United States engi- neers have been at work making this survey since last spring. The bound- ary lines of the park have been sur- veyed and marked by metes and bounds in Warren. Page, Rappahan- nock, Greene M/# son, Rockingham and Augusta Counties. Six weeks, it was stated today, will be required to complete the survey in Albemarle County. Working under instructions of the National Park Commission in Washington, the engi- neers will. lay the lines so as to ex- clude the valuable orchard lands in Albemarle County, that extend upon the mountain sides in some places. Thousands of acres of valuable fruit and farm lands, which are located on the slopes of the Blue Ridge Moun- tains and which were embraced by the original boundary lines, have been ex- cluded by the new survey. It is esti- mated that the exclusion of this valuable land will reduce the cost of purchasing the park area between $5,000,000 and $6,000,000 and will make this cost within figures so that it can be handled by the Virginia au- thorities in charge of the park move- ment. Park headquarters of the Virginia Conservation Commission in Front Royal are now completing plans to acquire the park area in Warren County under the provisions of the Virginia park law recently held con- stitutional by Judge Phillip Williams, of the Warren County Circuit Court.

Smith’s neck was broken BROWN HITS RIVAL IN CAMPAIGN TALK Coalition Candidate Attacks Alleged Machine Rule in Charlottesville. ee oe ee TAMMANY TINGE HINTED Special to The Washington Post, Charlottesville, Va.. Oct. 19.—Dr. William Moseley Brown, coalition can- didate for governor, tonight invaded the only city in the State which, in the presidential election last fall, gave a majority for Al Smith. Speaking in the city armory before an audience which included many women, he severely attacked the present election laws “A primary such as that conducted by the Demo- cratic machine August 4 was a travesty on the good name of the Common- wealth,” he said. pen and defiant violation of the law was noted in precinct after precinct.” Brown reasserted that the Demo- cratic machine in Virginia is but the branch of Tammany Hall. “The time has come,” he said, “for the inaugura- tion of real,. two-party system of government-in Virginia. The Demo- crats are interested only in the per- petuation of machine rule at all costs, even at the expense of the welfare of the people and the exercise of poltfti- cal independence. “Tax reduction proposed by Repub- licans on automobile licenses and gasoline, will alone affect more than 30,000 families in Virginia,” said Brown. “Pollard,” he stated, “has thus far thought it unwise to express him- self too freely on this point. He does not show to the satisfaction of the people at large how the road building program of the State will be curtailed when, under the plan which I have proposed, approximately $33,000,000 per annum will be available for road building beginning with 1933. Neither does he furnish the public with a list of the industries which will refuse to come into the State unless he is elected governor.”’ Mrs. Nannie Greenwell Buried at Morganza Special to The Washington Post.

Today, the whole trend of medical practice - is away from needless “dosing.” As more and more people turn to this modern external method of treating colds, the demand for Vicks increases year after year. To keep pace with this ever- growing demand, the famous “17 Million Jars Used Yearly,” was raised to “21 Million”a short time ago. This figure too has been out- grown, as there are now “Over 26 Million Jars Used Yearly”— a jar for every family in the U.S. V VapoRus OVER t# MILLION JARS USED YEARLY ICKS % % UULUOTUEAUOASEOCOEEUAUEUASAUAOEAPEUASA AEA UOEOUOLOOOUEUOOUEOOOQEUOLOEUOOEEGOOOEUOOUEUGUOOUONEOUOOOOUGUEOUOGENGAEROUUEOEOUUUEEUGLOEOG44OOUG4ERA4EEOULGEO44AOU4GQEO44AOOG44EON40O00N0 eT | OCTOBER 20. 1929.

More than one of these bills as been long months in the making. ut only two of them hava taken so ong in the making as the Haw.ey- moot tariff now on the laps of the, 8. ‘ ; Comment by Andrew Johnson. : me of the most celebrated in one thie most dramatic incidents in Bee siistory of tariff-making, said $hat governments had solved Mther questions but that of finance, @nd that no government had ever earned how to write a satisfactory tevenue bill. Thomas Jefferson, who : Was the nearest thing to a seer this addin u country has produced, recognized is in his memorable communica- tion to Congress in December, When he urged upon licy “of free trade among all na- Zions, and with only one nation, if put one would enter into a treaty that end. he- concluded, “should any nation, contrary to our wishes, sup- pose it may better find its advantage by continuing its system of prohibi- ooves their commerce and navigation, founter prohibitions, duties and reg- @lations also. Free commerce and Mavigation are not to be given in exchange for restrictions and vexa- fions; nor are they likely to produce @® relaxation of them.” * The tariff history of America shows how nearly right both the great Vir- injian and the great Tennessean prere. The tariff is in national poli- ics and in international politics; it #s in business and it is in finance; it fs in shipping and it is in diplomacy; 4% is in labor and it is in agriculture. Bven the churches nave taken notice of it, for the Federal Council of @hurches in America has presumed occasion to determine a _ tariff Policy for the Nation. « This is not said in any spirit of criticism, but tp state a fact Mlus-, trating how elusive, how fascinating. how elective and alluring the tariff is. To use a much abused word, it trigues the philosopher in his brary, the monk in his cloister, and the legislator in his forum. No won- Ger it raises more heat than light in Congress Issue Dates Back to Abel. ~ A rapid survey of the tariff history £ the country will show that the which has been raised over the Bawley-Smoot bill is not a new issue t began with the first tariff and has M & problem and a perplexity with very succeeding major tariff measure. @ matter of fact, it began in the wn of history, when Cain killed is brother Abel, for at bottom it is a lous competition between two con- icting elements of our society—agri- gulture and manufacture. * When Alexander Hamilton made us to protect our citizens, ~— of the House, calling on him public credit,” he urged additional @uties on wines, spirits #hose distilled in the United States), a8 and coffees, “without any pos- Sible disadvantage to trade or agri- eulture.” * his report stirred up an animated | it was more heat} debate. In fact, han jJight that Congress got from the iscussion, and the opponents were e representatives of the agricul- | fural interests. Said the spokesman for this group, to. endeavor to force, $y extraordinary Government patron- age, the growth of manufactures would be to transfer the natural cur- fent of industry from a more to a Jess beneficial channel. This, they g@aid, would sacrifice general to parti- gular interests. It can hardly ever be wise, they concluded, for a gov- rnment to try to give direction to @ industry of its citizens, the undest and simplest policy in al- ost every case being to leave the industry to itself. 2 ” Not Democratic Infant. * Tt ts a most interesting as well as @& remarkable fact that Madison, Jef- #erson and Andrew Jackson, all three itates, coincided with Hamilton's views and were in a measure pro- ctionists. The separation of. the politics of the country on & tariff licy was a later development. Farift reform,’ so intimately intwined th the name of Grover Cleveland, nother great Democrat, was not @riginally a Democratic infant, for eveland got his inspiration from the beral Republicans who supported him—Carl Schurz, Godkin, and other fariff reformers. » As every one knows, the obpstruc- n to the immediate passage of the wley-Smoot bill is the age-old ob- gtacle to the passage of every tariff bBill—the contest between agriculture $nd manufacture. Senator Borah, Who prevailed upon President Hoover | to call the extra session for “a limited Fevision of the tariff,” tried to limit e,changes to the _ agricultural achedules alone, and was defeated by one vote. The Senate opened the bil: Up to wholesale changes in the in- terest of all classes, so ‘that a gen- instead of a particular revision the result. It is limited in no sense. * And because it is general; because there is this irreconcilable conflict itween the two great classes of ymerican society; and because of the Magnitude of the measure itself, the nsideration of it has consumed the time it has. No one expects either d@ide to yield. Each side taunts the other with delay. leadership, and all that sort of ing. But the cause is as deep seated a’ human nature itself. Let us glance ab the history of a few of the mem- qrable tariff battles to see if this #@ not so; to learn how ere in the making and what caused any delay in their passage; what con- | icts were aroused, who shouldered and who left the most dead on | tiie field of battle. First Tariff Bill in 1789. The first tariff bill under the Con- sbi tution of 1787 was introduced by mes Madison April 8, 1789. at every State in the Confederation vied its own taxes. Madison's bill debated in the committee of the ole until May 16, when it was d and sent to the Senate. That Beeston it up May 20 and postponed ion until the 25th. It was amended and debated unt!) June » when it passed. The House re- d to accept the amendments tacked by the Senate and the bill went conference. A few changes were de and the House then ‘accepted $ bill. It was signed on July 4. ere were but fifteen States in the) Ynionh at that time; the membership both houses of Congress was small, | dnd yet this bill took three months to are. was a small bill, with few items, as we shall see, and t that Congress was unable to put | through in a hurry with James dison and Alexander Hamilton ring it. Its course through Con- has been the track that all sub- Pavent bills have taken. Let us f.’- it through the debates. © Madison's bill levied certain duties gn goods, wares and merchandise and on the tonnage bringing them into the country. The items taxed were “yum and a!] spirituoug liquors, molas- ées, Madelra other wines, Andrew Johnson, who helped frame | @®ne or two tariff bills and who signed | all | 1793, | Congress ait ons, duties, and regulations, it be- | by | (including | lanters and coming from planting | There is conflict | long they | Prior to | vrei \ THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, OCTOBER OT RE La common bohea and all. dther teas, pepper, brown, loaf and. all other sugars, cocoa and coffee... No rates were specified, but the committee of the whole mserted them by amend- ment. The historian of the tariff says: “The debates in the House on this bill brought out fairly well every argument since used, except ‘the want of power in the Federal Government to lay duties for protection.’ ” Senator Maclay, of Pennsylvania, | wrote the only account we have of the debates in the Senate. Taking note of the criticism ovér the delay , in the passage of_the bill, he wrote in his Journal: “The idea has got abroad that the mercantile interest has been | excited to delay this bill. The mer- | chants have undoubtedly regulated | the prices of their goods aPreeably to the proposed duties, so that the con- Sumers of dutied articles really pay the whole impost, and whatever the proposed duties exceed the State 'duties now is clear gain to the mer- ichant. Some of them, indeed, dis- pute the payment of the State im- | post.” Senate Makes Changes. In his.quaint phrase Maclay tells how the bill was being changed in the | Senate, and this depicts the story of every subsequent tariff bill. “We sat /on the impost bill,” he wrote on May | 25, “and debated long on the style of j the enacting clause. It was an old | friend, and the same arguments were ; used which had formerly been ad- vanced; but the style of the law, | which had already passed, was adopt- ;}ed. Now came the first duty of 12 j}cents on Jamaica proof. We debated | until a quarter past 3; and it was re- |;duced to 8. Adjourned. I fear that |Our impost bill will be rendered in a | great measure unproductive. This | business is the work of New England ;men. They want the article of mo- | lasses quite struck out, or at least greatly reduced; or, to place it in.a | different point of view, almost every [point of view,.almost every part will | be proscribed either by one or other | of those who choose to be our oppo- |nents, for every conspirator must be | indulged in the sacrifice of his par- | ticular enemy.” | As the debate wore on, light grew darker and heat flamed higher. This | is characteristic of every tariff debate. bute June 9 Maclay wrote that the dis- cussion was being conducted “with less order, less sense, and less decency, too, than any question I have «ver yet heard debated tn the Senate.” On June 11 there Was a lengthy debate on drawbacks, and “Butler, of South Carolina, flamed away, and threat- ened dissolution of the Union with regard to his State, as sure as God was in the firmament. * © * His State would live free or die glorious.” Here was the South Carolina . tariff doctrine showing its head on the first tariff bill. Secession and nullification were not born overnight. Held Rates Too Low. When the debate had ended and he had had time to make an ASSESS - ment of its-provisions, Maclay turned the light on in these words: “The senators from New Jersey, Pennsyl- , Vania, Delaware and Maryland (the famous response to the resolu- | manufacturing States), in their every tng im /}act seemed desirous of making the r a report “for providing for the | mational debt and for sustaining the | impost productive, both as to reve- nue and effective for the encourage- ment of manufactures; and seemed to consider the whole of the imposts (salt excepted) much too low. Ar- | ticles of luxury, many of them would | have raised one-half. | bers from the North and, still more But the mem- | particularly, from the South; were |ever in a flame when any articles | were brought forward that were in | any considerable use among them.” This outline shows the dividing —_ that has to this day demarcated | the sections on the tariff. New Eng- | land, manufacturing rum, which |came in competition with Jamaica | rum, asked for free molasses and for /an impost on Jamaica: (lina, an Agricultural State. oppos 'Imposts on articles she used: and the | manufacturing States wished the im- | posts effective both for revenue and | for the upbuilding of industry. It | | Was some years before New England | became a manufacturing region, and ,She was, until that time came, Op- | posed to protection, because it in- |jured her shipping and her fishing, which could not be carried on without | South mis rum. The poor, which the Lord said we have with us always, found friends ,in the opponents of this bill, for, it was seriously argued, the impost on molasses would make them suffer be- | cause it was an item of their ordinary | diet. Madison wrote Jefferson that | this argument was countered by an- | other, that “the poor who: consume ‘molasses would escape the burden fall- ,ing on the poor who consume sugar.” This requires an _ interpretation. Those simple days were the days of _ the “long sweetening” and the “short sweetening,” when tea and coffee was made palatable either with sugar or molasses. If you were ambitious and had social aspirations, you used sugar; if you were self-satisfied, you used molasses. Protective Tariff Asked. Between the Madison tariff and 1816 Congress passed a number of tariff | bills, none of which created any dis- ; turbance because of the War of 1812. | To show how well controlled Congress pwas, a bill -was passed July 1, 1812, imposing double duties on imports, /and another on July 29, 1813, impos- ing a duty onimported salt. The second war with England stimulated the growth of domestic manufacturers, \SO when Congress met. in December 1815, it received many petitions from manufactyrers asking for a protective tariff, those from the cotton manu- facturer attracting the most atten- tion. ‘These manufacturers repre- | Sented that they gave employment to , 100,000 persons and produced an- /nually goods valued at $24,000,000. |. A. J. Dallas, of Pennsylvania, was Secretary of the Treasury, and in that capacity he matie an elaborate report | to Congress, recommending the repeal of a number of tariff bills, the reduc- tion of the direct tax from $6,000,000 to $3,000,000 annually, and the dis- |continuance of the tax on distilled spirits after June 30, 1816. He fol- lowed this with another report, Feb- ruary 13, 1816, which surveyed the | whole tariff situation .and recom- mended that a new general tariff bill be written, to provide ‘a revenue of | $24,000,000 to meet estimated Gov- ernment expenses. . This ig the first instance of a Secre- | tary taking the lead jn the framing | Of a tariff bill, and it is also the first |instance of tariff. reform proposed in our legiglative history. The Dallas | tariff went through speedily, being 'opposed by New England led by Web- ster and by John Randolph of | Roanoke. Calhoun and Clay led the ‘fight for the bill. The division in the several sections, as recorded in the | House votes, shows how sentiment | was then beginning to shape up on a | definite tariff policy. It was: Yeas. Nays. Absent. New England .... 10 16 Middle. States .... 13 | Western States ... 3 5 Southern States... 14 The bill passed the to 7 nays. Protection Definite Policy. _ Protection was now a definite policy of one political faction and was soon to divide the country and produce the first great sectional convulsion. An effort was made at the session of 1819-20 to pass a protective tariff bill. The House, 88 to 71, put it through, but the Senate, 22 to 21, killed in on a motion to postpone action until next session. ' President Monroe, wedded to the idea of protection, twice recommended % ES. 7 Senate, 25 yeas in his annual messages a review of the tariff for making it more pro- tective, and a bill to carry this into effect was introduced in the Howse early in January, 1824, debated more than two months, and passed, 107 to 102. The -Senate consumed some months in its consideration, variously amended it, and after a conference had, ironed out the differences, it Was passed, 25 to 22. Webster led an impressive fight on the bill, and Clay sponsored: it. Andrew Jackson voted for it. Pennsylvania and the South were again at loggerheads. The vote on this*bil, bécause it immedi- ately preceded the “tariff of abomi- nations” which convulsed the Nation, is not without interest: .

Niles’ Register explains the line-up in these words: “The navigating and fishing States opposed the bill because of an apprehension that it would injure commerce; the grain-growing States supported it because of a belief that its passage would benefit agriculture, and the planting States united with the navigating against the bilf for the reason that it wotld be injurious to agriculture!” ———- - Jackson a Protectionist. Jackson’s support of this so-called “tariff of woolens” definitely placed him in the rank.of the protectionists, but there is a reasonable ground for the suspicion that he voted for the bill with an eye on the Presidency. As an evidence .>at he was not above suspicion, the Legislature of Indiana, favorable to his candidacy, felt im- pelled to pledge him, so in January, 1828, a resolution was adopted by the Senate of that body “inviting him (Gen. Jackson) to state explicitly whether hé favors that construction of the Constitution of the United States which authorizes Congress to appropriate money for the purpose of making internal improvements in the several States, and whether he is in favor of such a system of-pratective duties for the benefit of American manufacturers as will, in all cases where the raw material and the ability to manufacture exists in our country, secure the patronage of our own man- ufactures to the exclusion of those of }foreign countries; and whether, if elected President of the United States, he will in his public capacity recom- mend, foster and support the Ameri- can system.” Jackson replied, pointing to his vote on the “tariff on woolens” and to a lettér he had writtem to a Dr. Cole- man, of North Caroltna, the preceding year, a letter that somehow got into the public press and was never rectu- diated. In the letter to Dr. Coleman Old Hickory said we were producing too much of farm products, more | than we could consume. “Draw from agriculture this superabundant la- bor,” said he; “employ it in mechan- ism and manufactures, thereby cre-. ating a home market for your bread- stuffs and distributing labor to the most profitable account, and bene‘its to the country will result.” Not even Senator Shortridge, of California, could put the. case. more succinctly. No wonder Old Hickory was under suspicion in the planting States. Can we not all see him press a little harder with his quill pen as |he wrote this sentence: “It is time | we should become a little more | Americanized (he underscored that | word); instead of feeding the paupers and laborers of England, feed our | Own, or else in a short time, by con- tinuing our present policy, we shall be rendered paupers ourselves.”’ Did this not forecast the “tariff of abomi- nations?” Killed Off Calhoun. If that tariff made a President, the next one killed off a promising candi- date—John GQ Calhoun. It marked the first definite entry of the manufacturing interests of the coun- try into a tariff fight as an or- ganized body, and it began the Penn- Sylvania plan, which has continued to this day. Mr. Mallary, of Vermont, chairman of the House committee on manufactures, on January 10, 1827, brought in a general tariff bill and after a lengthy¥ and animated debate it was rushed through, 106 to 95, the House dividing again geographically rather than partisan. There was little time for the Senate to act on the bill, sO Martin Van Buren, with his eye on the White House, jockeyed the bil] into a vote for postponement, which being a tie, compelled Calhoun, the Vice President, to cast the deciding vote. He voted with the planting States, and aroused the enmity of every protectionist and manufacturer in the country. These gentlemen now formally organized the Penn- Sylvania Society for the Promotion of Manufactures and the Mechanics Arts On May 14, 1827; and called a na- tional convention to meet at Harris- burg on July 30 of that year, “to deliberate what measures are proper to be taken in the present posture Of affairs.” A committee broadcast an address to the country. Ninty-five delegates attended the convention from these States: New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts Rhode Island, Connecticut, New New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky and Ohio. Every section of the country except the deep South or the plant- ing States was represented. One can ond ee the nullification con- fersy without Mistone & glance at this A memorial to Congress aski tariff on wool and on the difterent kinds and qualities of woolen manu- factures and an increase on duties on other manufactured articles; was prepared; aS well as an address to the people of the United States and pepe to manufacturing industries e country. Eveérythin above hone” ’ a Most Remarkable Tariff Bill When Congress met that December the making of the most memorable tariff bill in our history wf the sole topic of discussion. ‘or the first time a committee begah to take testi- mony. Thus was initiated the policy that exists to this good day. It took the committee on manufactures éx- actly one month to conduct its -hear- ings, which began early in January. Debate on the bill commenced March 3 and continued until April 22. The bill had been ordered to qa third read- ing on April 15, by a vote of 109 to 91, but on that day John Randoplh made @ lengthy and spirited attack upon it, scattering his thunderbolts in all directions. Another debate en- sued on the merits of the bill and on the general question of protection, the bill finally passing, 101 to 96, with sixteen members absent. The spirit of the fierce opposition is shown by the efforts to amend the caption of the bill. It was en- titled, “An act in alteration of the Several acts imposing duties on ime- .” Mr. Wilde, of Georgia, the also | i was pretty speedy work. York, poet, moved to amend it by adding, FF STRUGGLE HAS BEEN BEFO “and for the encouragement of do- mestic nanufactures.” Randolph flared out, “insisting that domestig marufactures~ were *those carried on in the families of the farmers in :he making of what used to be called Virginia cloth.” Said he; “The geritleman from Georgia shoul call it a bill to rob and plunde nearly One-half of the Union to fill the pockets of the other half.” To this Mr. Hodges, of Massachu- setts, agreed, but offered his own amendment to add to it, “and to transfer the capital and iImdustry of the New England States to other States in the Union.” In the Senate Webster, now a con- vert to protectidbn, supported the bill, “declaring New England was now ior protection.” After a debate lasting three weeks, and adding only thirteen amendments, the bill passed, 26 to 21, was accepted by the House two days later, and on May 19 John Quincy Adams signed it. Then‘the fun began Brought About Nullification. Hardly is it necessary to recount the history of the nulMfication contro- versy. Even yet the historians differ on the facts and on the philosophy of that unamiable controversy. By for- mal act the people of South Carolina, in convention, nullified the tariff, but only after a terrific controversy before the people. At a mass meeting at Co- lumbia, the president of the Univer- sity of South Carolina, Dr. Thomas Cooper, who Wad been a judge in Pennsylvania, and whom John Adams had placed in/ jail for citicizing him, made a speech that first formally enunciated the doctrine that protec- tion was unconstitutional, and in which he used this memorable phrase: “It is time for the South to calculate the value of the Union.” This is the first time that secession was pro- claimed in the South, and by an alien at that and an infidel. We all’ know that Virginia inter- ceded both with South Carolina and with the administration, and txat Jackson urged the Congress to revise the offensive “tariff abominations.” He wished to avert civil war, and so did Virginia and so did South Caro- lina, for it is often overlooked that 17,000 voters opposed nullfication in the Palmetto State; that Charleston and the western counties stood by Old Hickory. ‘! Clay’s First Compromise. Clay took this occasion to frush through his first celebrated com- promise, and so befuddled was the State of mind, so at criss crosses all the popular thought, that he actually began to modify the tariff by a bill introduced in the Senate, when the ConstiNution says that money bills shall originate in the House. The tariff bill was hurried through both branches of Congress, Jackson’s plea for more power to put down rebel- lion in South Carolina and to en- force the collection of the revenue was delayed until the ‘controvefsy was over and South Carolina had rescinded her nullification act through the same formal process by which {t had been passed. In about three weeks the whole incident seem- ed to be over. It, however, raised a wind that, like the terrible hurricane, gathered force as it blew until it spent itself at Appomattox. Webster and Benton fought the measure, but to no end. Clay and Calhoun for once were to- gether. In the next tariff controversy we have the first of our Presidential battles with that problem, for John Tyler and Congress got at logger- heads and he vetoed two tariff bills, because “they did not suspend the distribution of the proceeds of the sales of the public lands among ‘the several States of the Union.” The first of these bills was written in compliance with a political pledge for a general revision, a pledge that had helped the Whigs win their great battle. The House committee on man- ufactures began work on this Dill on December 1. 1841, but had s0 much trouble getting information that it was not until some time in March of the next year that the Dill came out of committee. While the House was debating it, Chairman Fillmore, of the ways and means com- mittee, laid before the House a re- port from the Secretary of the Treas- ury asking that a bill of a gen€ral revenue character be passed: First the House passed and the Senate concurred in a bill to extend the Clay compromise act until Au- gust 1, but Tyler vetoed that, and the effort to pass it over his vete failed. On July 5 the House then _took up the general tariff bill, and | passed it on the 16th, and on Au- gust 5 the Senate passed it, which It should be remembered, however, that Tyler had incensed the Whigs to no end. Also Helped by Tyler. Tyler vetoed this bill also, and wrote a sharp letter to Congress which caused that honorable body to pass a resolution of censure on him, which still stands on the books: No other President was ever so treated over a tariff bill, but years later an- other was to get into a furious con- troversy with the Senate over a tariff bill. It. was now near the end of August, Congress had for nine monts been considering the tariff bill and cussing John Tyler. and the pay checks were being endangered for lack of funds in the Treasury. So in the last two weeks-of that month Congress passed the tariff bill in conformity with Tyler’s desires and he signed it on August 30. This was the longest session in our history de- voted t® a tariff bill until the present extra session.. The next important tariff bill ts known to history as the Walker tariff and is the only one that bears the name of a man not a member of Congress. It came during Polk’s ad- ministration, and was based upon a& report made to Congress by Robert J. Walker, Secretary of the Treasury, a Pennsylvania man who had been- @ senator from Mississipp!l and was later to become a Territorial governor of “Bleeding” Kansas. Mr. Walker was a low tariff'man, and so was the President. The latter attacked the protective principle in his message in 1845, and it was immediately fol- lowed by Walker’s report, which was the basis on which the committee On ways and means now for the first time began to write a bill. From December until April 14 the confmit- tee and Mr. Walker struggled with the bill, which was debated until July 2, when it passed, 114 to 97. 'The Senate laid it aside for three weeks, and as that body was known to be evenly divided on the measure it was feared that it would not pass. How- ever, with little debate and “no amendments, it was taken up on July 28 and passed, 28 to 27. Morrill Bill Easily Passed. For the next few years the mind |of the country was on war and not even the Morrill tariffs of the war period have much interest for stu- dents. As soon as the Southern States seceded that gave the Republicans control of both houses of Congress and they put their bills through without much trouble. Revenue was badly needed and no one took a lan- tern with him when looking over a tariff bill. There ‘were some interest- ing features of these bills if not much delay in their passage. That of 1863. provided for the appointment of three commissioners to consider the :whole revenue situation, to revise the tax .system and to propose laws for unify- ing the same. That such a bill should have come out of the hopper in war times: shows. that the states- men in Congress had other thoughts beside the main thought of winning the war. Nothing ever came of this proposal to make a scientific tariff and take it out of politics. Tre Morrt ll tariff of 1866 was rushed through the House after a three-day debate, being passed on July 10, 97 to 52. The Senate, by a vote of 27 to 17,44nstructed. the fimance committee to pigeon hole it until next session. when it was taken up at the begin- ning of the session, debated at great length and passed at midnight Feb- ruary 1, 1867. The House refused to concur in the Senate amendments and the bill was lost. This is the only instance in which a bill has met this fate, in this manner. Always from thé beginning the woo} peaple have been the most insistent for protection for their industry, and this has made the rather celebrated wool and woolens act of 1867 dra- matic with interest, and placed it in the hall of tariff fame alongside of the “tariff of abominations” and | Clay's compromise act of 1832. Judge Bingham, of Ohio, brought in a bill, July 23, 1866, to provide in- creased revenue from imported wool, and for other purposes. The secretary and legislative agent of the Wodl Manufacturers Association examining the bill found out that it “threat- ened no little injury to our interests,” and so notified his people. Judge Bingham on an appeal being made to him agreed to restore the rate in the Morrill] bill, ana the House in com- mittee of the whole, without taking a record vote, passed it. The next day, July 28, being the last legislative day, the bill was rushed to the Senate, and that body refused to consider it. Opposed by Fessenden. Fessenden, of. Maine, was chair- man of the finance committee and he opposed the bfil. At the short ses- sion the bill was taken -up by the finance committee and reported out protected interest in the country fought the bill, and Senator Cattell, Penfisylvania, offered an amendment which opened up the question of general tariff revision. This meant the defeat of the bill. The wool peo- ple were bleating like a flock of sheep surrounded by ene lone wolf. There was tremendous excitement on the Hill and throughout the country Finally, before a crowded Senate, with the Capitol filled with tatlors and toilers, the Cattell amendment-.came to a vote. The Democrats saved the day for the wcol men that time, for led by Reverdy Johnson, of Maryland, they joined with the Western anti- tariff men in defeating the amend- ment. Then on the very last legisla- tive day the bill passed, 31 to lz. That day a tailor sat in the Presi- dent’s room of the Senate surrounded the bills that he must sign or veto It.was noticed that he took the tariff bill and laid it aside, and went aheac signing the other bills. The tailors who had been applauding in the gal- lery an hour or two before heard that their bill had been cast aside. They rushed across the corridor of the House wing in minus nothing and got hold of Judge Bingham. They were so out cf breath, it is said they could not speak. But he read their minds and at one minute be- fore 12 o’clock he stood in the pres- ence of the man he was even then getting ready to crucify, and witb beads of sweat rolling down his cheeks he asked Andrew Johnson to sign his bill With an air that said, “I was just getting ready to do that,” Andrew Johnson took up his quill pen and made history. That was the narrow- est squeak a tariff bill ever got. First Tariff Commission. For the next sixteen years tariff bills were infreqhently and uninter- esting affairs. That of 1882 was me- morable only in that it created the tariff commission, and _ President Arthur could get no tariff reformer or men of prominence to serve on the commission. Then came Grover Cleveland. Tariff reform centers around the name of the great Democratic Presi- dent. When he first became Presi- dent he had never read a book.on the tariff and he didn’t know the differ- ence between a tariff rate and a glass of beer. But under the guidance of Carl Schurz, who gave him the books to read, he took up seriously the study of that question and became the most illustrious tariff reformer in our his- tory. ‘The first of the Cleveland bills, known as the Mills bill, came in 1887. Roger Q. Mills, of Texas, was chair- man of the ways and means commit- tee. Theoretically he was a free trader. As he years later told the Senate, he sat down in his: study in Texas and for six months worked out the details of the bill which bore his name, only to find out when he got before the committee he knew little about the technical side of mak- ing rates. This is the first instance in our history of one man attempting to write a tariff bill. Not even Hamilton or Madison. would under- take that when the country was young. 151 Speeches Were Made. General debate on the bill began April 17, 1888, with Springer, of Illi- nois, chairman of the committee of the’ whole. On July 19, it was over, 151 speeches having been made, con- suming 111 hours and 54 minutes. The bill then passed, 162 to 114, only four Democrats, including Samuel J. Randall, of Pennsylvania, opposing it. The Republicans controlled the Senate, so they made a farce out of the bill. The finance committee con- sidered it from July 21 until October 3, when it came out with three re- ports, one by Aldrich, the chairman, one by Beck, of Kentucky, and a third by the other. Democratic members. For two weeks it was debated, and then on October 20 Congress ad- journed without taking a vote. At the short session the bill was taken up December 5 and discussed until January 22, 1889, when it was passed » by a vote of 32 to 30. The House took the position that it was a brand- new bill and they refused even to consider it. So this the longest of the tariff sessions thus came to an end. Republicans were in control of every department of the government, and in this situation came the McKinley bill. Even with Tom Reed as Speaker and with the ablest ways and means committee that ever sat in the House, the bill was from December 9 until October 1 in the making. It carried 496 amendments, the House accept- ing 272, compromising on 173, and the Senate receding from. 51. There are few tariff bills that have made as much history as the ill-fated Wilson bill of 1894. That was the bill that wrecked the Democratic pa:ty, because the Senate insurgents, led by Gorman, of Maryland, and Brice, of Ohio, rewrote the bill in conformity with their own ideas of protecticn and to meet the wishes of certain Democratic senators wro were out fused to sign it, and in two letters, one to William L. Wilson and the oth- er to Gen. Catchings, of Mississippi, blistered the insurgents. They replied with their shillelahs and a merry fuss resulted. a Called Cowardly Surrender. Chairman Wilson began public hearings on the bill August 23, 1893, and closed them September 20, amid the jeers of the Republicans. He wrote an elaborate report .to accompany the bill, and Henry Watterson denounced it as a cowardly surrender to protec- tion. On January 5 general discussion began and ended five days later., Re- publicans broke a quorum and the bill could not come to a vote. Speaker Crisp refused to follow.Tom Reed’s precedent and count a uorum. Fi- nally it was decided to take a vote = February 1, and after a memorable bate between Crisp and Reed the bill on March 1, variously amended. Every | by his cabinet, leisurely looking ove!.

It be- came a law without the President's signature on August 27,1894, just year after its inception. ee Neither the Dingley tariff nor the: Payne-Aldrich tariff nor the Under- wood-Simmons tariff nor the Payne- McCumber tariff took the time to write that the other bills of moment occupied The Dingley tariff was put through a well organized Congress: the Payne-Aldrich tariff broke faith with the promises of the President and brought on the Bull Moose ‘movement, which was in effect the | revival of the ancient con be- tween the agricultural States the manufacturing States. The last Democratic bill was . conducted through the House by a master poli- ticlan and it had behind it the leadership of President Wilson, who personally took a hand in it, and pushed it through. 20 Months in Making Although the Democrats, in 1916, tried to take the tariff? out of polli- tics, and although this has been the dream of many Republican states- men, all efforts in this direction have failed, because of the eternal conflict between agriculture Band manufac- tures. This confifct, in 1921, pro- voked the longest controversy in tariff? building, for the Fordney-Mc- Cumber bill was twenty months in’ the making. ‘and Senator Borah then, as now, was in the forefront, fight- ing for the farmer. %, ways and means vary 6, 1921, and the bill passed t House the following July 21. finance committee did not report out the bill. until April 11, 1922, @rii then it came with more than 2000 ~~ amendments. se Senate passed. bill on August most 2,500 amendments, and it went to conference.

WASHINGTON POST: ‘SUNDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1929. a ee ne DRY AGENT $ CORNER RUM RING SUSPECTS CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. Evidence of a “code acocunt” In a New Jersey bank of the smugglers is held by Calhoun, and is locked up, he said, in a safe deposit box until he can find time to investigate. That that there does exist such a bank, he did not«-deny and that its directors knew the mature of their client's business, he also admitted as credible. Deposits in this bank, from notations in the records of the gang, averaged $1.000 a day. The New York World News Serv- ice, attempting to determine fust how large and effective the rum seiz- ure was, received information from each Federal] district, the Eastern and Southern in New oYrk,°and the New Jersey, that approximately 235 cases of liquor had been taken in the raid. It was reported. 10,000 cases were landed by the gang every week. Phone Lines Tapped. It was learned for the first time today that much of the information concerning the rum organization was obtained by Federal agents by tapping telephone lines of the stronghold at Highlands, N. J. These wires were tapped after the Government learned of the gang’s headquarters and mes- sages were intercepted at all hours of the day and night. Two secret serv- ice agente lived with the smugglers for six months gathering evidence. Calhoun called at the Federal Bullding today and held a conference with Watts and several men believed to be Federal agents’ from New Jer- sey. eNither he nor Mr. Watts, how- ever, would give any further informa- tion regarding the rum gang. except to say that they were “very satisfied, and we don’t mean maybe” with the results of the attack. Trade Paralyzed, Doran Says. (Associated Press.) Prohibition Commissioner Doran said yesterday that the series of dry raids in New York and New Jersey this week had “paralyzed” traffic in illicit liquor along the coast. Expressing keen satisfaction with the result of the raids, the commis- sioner said he believed the ring was broken to such an extent that it would be unable to reestablish itself for many months. He described as “nonsense’ re circulated in New York that the rum ring had not been seriously ham- pered and had already resumed busi- | The Weather TODAY’S SUN AND TIDE TABLE AM.

In cer- tain far-off days the pontiff lived at Avignon and fodé a favorite mule, whose attendant systematically starved and mistreated it. I must cut a long story short to add thut the mule wal for seven years be- fore unpacking his rage and resent- ment in one terrific and pulverizing —— delivered upon a public occa- sion. There is no longer a Pope’s mule, but there is Senator Robinson of In- diana. Some indefinite number of months ago he was offended by Sena- tor Hiram Bingham of Connecticut, who either addressed him in one of the subvariants of a dialect of the ancient Aztec tongue or con- descended to him with a Latin tag, or spoke slightingly of the Ku Klux Klan—it does not matter which. Mr. Robinson had been high-hatted. He delivered his kick, viciously and with both heels, on Thursday, Oc- tober 17, 1929, a day to be remem- bered. But first, a word about Mr. Bing- ham. He studied at Punahou, Ando- ver, Yale, the University of California and Harvard. and he taught at Har- vard, Princeton and Yale. cember 16, 1924, Santa Claus go2ve him to the Senate and he has been teaching there ever since. Teaching in his blood, correction in his manner and. admonition in his speech. The Senate is his school, which he with rod wil) chasten: * * + e E sauntered over on. that memorable Thursday to a room in which four naughty boys were conducting an investiga- tion into the practice of lobbying. He knew them well, had been forc- ed to reprimand every graceless onejof them on earlier occasions, but now was ready to explain, using the final- ity he shares with the laws of nature, how right and reasonable had been his employment of a representative of the Connecticut Manufacturers Asso- ciation to work with him in the mak- ing of a tariff. And those irreverent lads—Thad Caraway, Tom Walsh, Jack Blaine and Art Robinson—actually turned -his rod upon him, squelched him, forced him to confese he had been wrong. This was lese majesty, no less, and the fulness with which the press has reported the offense is a measure of its gravity. Things have come to a pretty pass when. the Aristotle of our day, the one man in this time of whom it can be said that he is the repository of all learning and all wis- dom, is subjected to such treatment. Why if there were justice upon earth he would move to his seat across a floor inlaid with beaten Senators, the Congressional Record would print his remarks, and his alone, upon vellum. Instead, this moon of Connecticut is bayed. Heigh ho! Gre tat as it- may. seem, quent of that lack of respect for our betters, which is an unpleasant feature of modern life, There is. however, one thing still more curious How came it that e@ man who sits, like Hiram Bingham, in awful isola- tion. upon the very pinnacle of hy- man wisdom should require advice upon 60 lowly a subject as the making of tariffs? Nobody seems to have asked that question yet, and it cries out for an answer. Perhaps Prof. Bingham knew too much and Mr. Eyanson, of the Manu- facturers Association, was there to | dilute and not to add to his learning. Great interests were involved and too much knowledge is always embar- rassing to at interests. The future of 52 leading industries in Connecti- cut was at stake, one for each card in the deck—except the joker—and we do not even know whether Eyanson or Bingham was the joker’s name. This phase of the affair, of course, this suggéstion that there might be a heel of Achilles in the full body of the senator’s learning, interests chief- ly the admirers of erudition for its own sake. People like to remember that a man spoke 74 languages and dialects and to forget that he said never a word worth hearing in any of them. These want their Bingham as a museum piece, rounded out and complete, un- touched by ignorance of any subject. He will help them in due time to re- cover their faith. The Senate and the world have not heard the last of him yet.

OCTOBER 20, 1929. ITPHERSON CSE THEORIES ARON ML ARE STUDIED Some of Suggestions Made by 300 Quizzed Persons Prove Weird. MURDER ESTABLISHED BY U. S. OPERATIVES Narcotic Traffic Is Factor; Mystery’s Early Solution Is Not Expected. How did Mrs. Virginia Hurley Mc- Pherson die, and why? For the last. two weeks a corps of the most skillful investigators of the United States Department of Justice has toiled night and day to solve the mystery of the death of the pretty young nurse whose body, nearly nude. was found garroted with the cord of her silken pajama jacket on the floor of her bedroom in the Park Lane on September 14. Facts appear to be depressingly scarce. Almost the only fact estab- lished definitely and beyond question is that Virginia McPherson is dead, strangled. Who killed her, the motive for her murder, or the exact manner its, accomplishment, are questions seemingly veiled in mystery today as deeply as on the day her husband, Rokert A. McPherson, jr., came upon her bo¢y when he entered her apart- mens ostensibly to settle their joint financial affairs. Taking up a cold trail already three wesks old, the Federal operatives have interviewed more than 300 persons and traced out innumerable clews, many of.which have been proven en- tirely unrelated to the tragedy. Many Theories Considered. But theories abound, and several of them. seem quite plausible, not only as to the motive of the slayer, but a.sO as to his identity. So plausible, in fact, are some of these theories that the Federal agents are still giv- ing them earnest consideration, un- able as yet to determine which theory is founded on fact dnd which are but the figments of imagination. Each of these theories is based upon information supplied by witnesses who have been quizzed regarding the tragedy. Perhaps when the solution ig revealed it may yet develop that he information from which each eory has been developed will prove factual; but, when the various groups of facts are classified and assembled properly, all of the present theories may be eliminated and an entirely new picture created. From the start, there have been four suspects who have stood out above all others as most likely to include the murderer of Virginia Mc- Pherson. At no time hag anything been discovered which might elimi- mate any of these four, nor has their mumber been augmented by any evidence which might throw suspi- cion definitely upon any other Ppos- sible slayer. Suicide Claim Disproved. The only possibility definitely elim- inated thus far is the original theory .advanced by the police and accepted by the coroner’s jury; that Virginia McPherson had taken ° her own life. One theory advanced shortly after the Federal investigators began their hunt for the slayer of Virginia Mc- Pherson, and still considered as a major premise, it is believed, was that the nurse was strangled after one of the four suspects had entered her apartment and found another of the four there. One of these two men, presumably the earlier visitor, ig believed to have fled from the apartment by way of a bedroom window opening upon a low roof, while the other remained to berate the girl. The possibility is seen that this second man, after starting to leave some time later, re- turned to continue the argument, and in a moment of insane rage twisted Virginia McPherson’s pajama cord about her throat and left her dead body propped against the mir- a door of her becroom where it e€ . Drug Traffie Enters Case. Another more recent theory which is being given careful study is that Mrs. McPherson may have been strangled to insure her silence. In- formation is believed to have been advanced which would indicate that the nurse held. information which might prove damaging to some criminal, and that this man may have obtained admittance to her apartment on the night of Septem- ber 12, during which Mrs McPherson is believed to have met her death. If such a man had been threatened with exposure by Virginia McPherson and she refused to heed.his plea for silence, it is entirely conceivable that he would take measures of his own to insure his safety by -stilling her voice. forever. Somewhat similar is the theory; also regarded as a strong possibility, that Virginia McPherson may have been subject to the influence of a drug addict or vendor at whose bid- ding she had procured narcotics, either for his own use or for redis- tribution. If the nurse finally re- vgited and threatened to expose such a state of affairs, it is reasonable to argue that her drug-crazed oppressor might have murdered her. — Obtained Narcotic Orders. That Mrs. McPherson had obtained frequent narcotic prescriptions from at least one prominent Washington physician, and that she was not ad- dicted to the use of drugs herself, is believed to have been established definitely. ; Still another possibility under serious consideration is that Virginia McPherson may have been surprised in her apartment by an admirer under the influence of liquor, who strangled her when she resisted his advances. One flaw in this theory is the probability that under such cir- cumstances the slayer would have been more likely to throttle the girl with his bare hhands than with a cord, as his motive would have been, presumably, not to cause death but to frighten Mrs. McPherson and break down her resistance. On the other hand, the prospect is seen that the effects of his liquor may have worn off and brought a realization of the disgrace t awaited him if Virginia McPherson should reveal his escapade publicly may have prompted murder as a move for self-protection. These are but a few of the more plausible theories which have ‘been advanced and consideted by the Fed- CONTINUED ON PAGE 26, COLUMN 1. |eleéver at making stands, Nation’sA Years Fail to Change verage Man Lindbergh Remain Heroes of Gray. By THEODORE R. HAMMER. After two years in the spotlight as the average American, Roy L. Gray, o Fort Madison, Iowa, is unspoiled an: is said by his friends to be still ti Nation's most average man. Mr. Gray was selected two years agx as America’s average citizen afte months of comparison. The uverac. man was found to live on an averaz: street in the average city, was the head of an average family of four anda was sole owner of a one-man business At the time of his selection he was 43 years of age, inclined to stoutness anc slightly gray. Most of the average man’s ideas o: life are unchanged. The same is truc of his ideals and beliefs on political national and religious questions as compared to two years ago, when his name and picture were flaunted be- fore the whole world as the average American. One question that made a big im- pression two years ago, and which caused more agitation than any other phase of the average citizen pulicity, is not discussed by the average man today. That is the question of prohi- bition. Two years ago Mr. Gray said’ he “saw right on both sides of the wet and dry question.” He was quoted at length on his theories of prohibition and the fact that he saw wrong as well as right on the side of both the wet and dry issue. They were angry letters, most of them, and he was roughly handled by the drys for lean- ing against prohibition just as he was criticized by the other side for his; alleged leaning toward the drys. In-his latest interview the average man said, “Let’s forget all reference to prohibition. ” He has not forgotten all those letters and the many editorials criticizing him for his stand on the - liquor question when in reality he leaned neither wey: a Ww } Hoover, Walter Johnson, | |’ CONTINUED ON PAGE 26. COLUMN ‘| ROY L. GRAY. How Women Can Make Money The chances are that after vou have started on the work you have chosen, and trouble raises its scaly head, you will become discouraged. But don’t let it. It makes no differ- ence what business, or endeavor, you go into, you will have trouble. The more troubles you have and the bet- ter you overcome them, the greater your success. Then you are making progress. Don’t let yourself get discouraged. You are bound to have discourage- ments; they are as sure to come as the wind is to blow. Face them, fight them, conquer them. You would think that Thomas A. Exiison, with the world-success he Has made, would not have had continualiy to go up against discouragements, but he has. He has never undertaken any piece of work, he says, but that he had to face discouragement. But he has outfaced it. This is what he says: “T never allow myself to become discouraged under any circumstance The three great -essentials to achieve anything worth while are, first, hard work; second, stick-to-itivenes; third, common sense.’ Ifyou have an eye sensitive to the artistic, a sense of form and sym- metry, and of what appeals to peopie, then you have an account in the bank that you can draw on. Become a window-dresser, The large stores all have profes- sional window-dressers on their staffs, but the smaller stores depend mostly on the manager himself, or on the help. Window-dressing with them 1s a haphazard task, to be slipped in between other work, Here is your chance. Study window-display, zo from store to store comparing window with window, subscribe to the maga- zines on the subject, get. from the library books dealing with window- trimming, and saturate yourself with all the artistic knowledge that you can. Practical Start Described. Now begin on the practical. Go to a local signboard maker, get his prices for backgrounds, “atmosphere,” plaques and so on; and then go to a carpenter or cabinet maker who is building platforms, imitation stairways, castles, &c., and explain to him your proposi- tion and tell him that you and. he can work together. When you have got a grasp on the practical end, then go to a store which has not had suc- cessful window displays and explain to the owner that you’ are interested in window dressing and that you be- lieve that you can rearrange his win- dow displays. and entice more people in. Tell him that you. want to do this as an experiment. He will have to pay only the charges due to the window card maker, or to pay any small thing that may require the help of a carpenter, Put in the win- dow display and make no charge at all for your own work. Take pictures of the display from different angles and paste them in a scrapbook. Ask the owner to checky up on how the window draws. See if you have added to the number of. people who go into the store. You may now go to another store; you have had some experience. De- cide for yourself if you will make him an offer to do it free of charge, as a demonstration of your ability, or to set a price. Get your experience, and then you may go boldly to the stores that have been slighting their windows and make them propositions Add to your scrapbook, keep studying. and after a time you will have a nice little business of your own. Some of the methods which will be outlined in this series will bring in money only after preparations and some will bring in money at once. Here is one which will bring in immediate money, and is a splendid way, except that it can be used only at certain seasons of the year. It is by freezing over a vacant lot and using it as an outdoor skating rink. Go over your town and find a lot which has no building on it and which ig centrally. located; see the Jwner and make arrangements to rent it, or, if your purse is thin, offer to share the. mopey with him. You will have to get a man with a shovel, or possibly a man with a team pnd slusher and level off the lot and build up embankments. Watch the weather predictions and when the right. night comes along, turn on the water. You can now charge the boys and girls to skate. If you have a favorable location and if the ice is smooth, the rink will be an almost instant success. If you .have a long lease, or if the and may be had on birds, butterflies, conditions are right, you can rent smh wscone Sirah olin moved to the rink, or have it built. (n it you will have a stove to keep the place warm while the voys and giris put on their skates. Mothers will appreciate this. The next step is for you to make the place as gay and at- tractive as you can. Have a phono- graph or a radio so that you can have music while they skate. Make it a popular place, make it echo the gayety and life of the young people. They come-there to be happy; see that they are—and then the money w1iil find its'way into your pocketbook. Have contests, offer prizes for tancy skat- ing and prizes for couples. Start a lunch counter where .aot foods. and drinks can be’ obtained. Especially are “hot dogs” sougnt after at an ice-skating rink. Alo dough- nuts. Have them there. It is a good method, subject to the hazards of the weather and with the drawing power of your rink, but its rewards are immediate. Some of these ways may sound in- consequential, but how important they are depends on how mucn one puts into them. It is the old story of little acorns and big trees, as I will point out in a moment. The impor- tant thing is to decide on an jidea that appeals to you and then make it succeed. People who have made great successes in the world ure often credited with genius, when ‘t is really } nothing but serious application. -It is wanting tremendously to do some- thing and then doing it. You would think that if any one had been a genius and-succeeced from sheer na- tive ability it was Alexander Hamil- ton, who was instrumental in the framing of the Constitution and who was considered the master of finance of his day. This is what he ssys on the subject of genius: -“Men give me some credit for ,en- ius. All the genius I have .ies in this: When I have a subject in hand, I study it profoundly. Day and night. it is before me. I explore it in all its bearings. My mind becomes per- vaced with it. Then the efforts that I make are what people are pleased to call the fruits of genius. in reality it 1s the fruit of labor and thought.” I now offer a method which may rot at first seem to have possibilities, vut, as I say and will probably say aguin in this guide, much depends on what you put into it. The method is con- ducting nature talks. If you have a liking for nature, if you love. the birds and flowers, then you have a foundation. But unless such things appeal to you, don’t for any reason attempt it. You will only make a failure of it. Mothers and Teachers. -Explain to the mothers and teach- ers in your community that you are getting up a series of nature talks for children, and that each Saturday morning you are going to take a number of children out to study wild life. Explain to a mother that you will teach her child to know poison ivy, how to distinguish toad- stools from mushrooms and how to know a poisonous snake from a harm- less one. Tell the mother who hesi- tates the story of the great influence that nature study had on the life of President Theodore Roosevelt. As a child he was sickly, and was taken on walks by his teacher who pointed out things of interest about birds. This passionate interest in birds lasted him all his life. Once when he landed in England, after one of his trips, and when all England was waiting for him, from the king and queen down, he passed up all the great men of state and called for an ornithologist to take hjm on a walk and tell h'm about birds. _ You can make such a course a as- cinating one for children, but do not do it as teaching—do it in the guise of discovery. You find a plant, a wild flower, or a bird with a strange song, or an unusual caterpillar What is it? Where did it come from? Get them interested in that. Have a pair of field rlasses along for the titrds a microscope for the butterflies end insects. Don’t tell the children too much; let them make discoveries, it will please them more to discover *he marking On a butterfly’s wing, them- selves, than for you to point it »sut and deliver a lecture on it. «If you are in a small town, take the children to the country; if you ~re in & large city, take them to the zoo.

UCTOBER'S SUICIDES PHOMISE NEW MARK FOR SINGLE MONTH Cases of Self-Destruction Forced to Live in Dockyard] Likely to Set Record This Year. MORE WOMEN TAKE THEIR LIVES NOW Methods Nearly Always Fall Into One of the Few Classifications. The month of October this year promises to break all previous records for the number of suicides reported ‘here in a single month: With ten suicides already: recorded for the first eighteen days, last year’s record for the month, when six were recorded, oven now has been exceeded by 86 2-3 ver cent, and it seems certain that he high record for any one month ill be shattered. Octobers of pre- ious years have shown generally a »wer number of suicides than other 10n ths. Although the number of people vho take their lives here has in re- ent years been rather stable at an verage slightly in excess of 100 an- ually, and the records for the first line months of this year show ex- “etly the same number of suicides, ‘9, as for the corresponding period of 1928, it is a certainty that if the gen- crally high averages for the months of November and December are main- taimed, 1929 will have brought Wash- ington the unenviable record of a suicide every third day for the first | time in its history. Female Suicides Increase. Another yearly record that is al- most bound to be broken is the num- ber of female suicides and ‘their per- centage of the total, while there is a very likely possbiility that the num- ber of male suicides will show a de- crease. Although the totals for the first nine months of 1928 and 1929 are exactly the same, there was an in- crease Of five female and a decrease of five male suicides during this year’s period as compared with last. Fur- ther illustrating this trend, the statis- tics show that of the six suicides for the entire month of October last year none were female, while of the total of ten so far this month three have been female. Last year 105 suicides were recorded in the District of Columbia, of which 75 were male and 30 female. In 1926 and 1927 the totals were 86 and 108 respectively. Murders here during the same period totaled 38 in 1926. 41 in 1927 and 44 in 1928. For the first nine months of this year there have been 33 murders, as compared with 29 for the corresponding period last year. Month’s Total May Be 17. At the rate of one suicide every 1 4-5 days, that has been maintained so far this month, the total for one month will be seventeen, or four more than in July when the high record. of thirteen suicides was re- ported. The next highest month for suicides this year was March, whea twelve suicides were reported, while February, as usual, recordeq the smallest number with four. In con- trast with last year, when no female suicides were reported for the months of February and October, every month so far this year has recorded at least one female suicide. The statistics show that by far the most popular method of suicide here is by gas asphyxiation with both men and women. Thirty-two of the 79 suicides reported for the first nine months this year, or more than 40 per cent, have selected this means of taking their lives. Last year 47 per- sons, Or nearly 45 per cent of the total suicides, consummated their acts in that manner. Firearms are the next most generally used method with men, while they rank next to gas and poison. with women. The various methods ‘employed and the prevalence of each. is shown in the following table for the first nine months of this year and the cor- responding period for 1928: Male. Female. Method. 1928. 1929. 1928. Pe ct ecenne & 3°. nh eae sttase 5 0 as 13 ‘ 4 NE i 0 iene dese ; windo 0 Razors, 1 ; O Totals 20 Women Shun Hanging. It is interesting to note in connec- tion with the table that women rely almost wholly upon poison, gas and firearms to end their lives, in con- trast to the much greater diversity employed by men, and that the sui- cide of 4 female by hanging or stran- gulation is practically unheard of. The records show not a single such case during the 21 months perused, not even the celebrated case of the death of Mrs. Virginia McPher- son, 2l-year-old Washington nurse, whom police claimed was a suicide, appearing on the Police Department’ 5 | tabulation of suicides. The records for September, the month in which Mrs. McPherson met her death by strangulation with a pajama cord in her Park Lane apart- ment, show but three female sul- cides, one by poison and two by gas. In discussing the various methods of suicide yesterday Lieut. L. I. H. Ed- wards, information and personnel officer of the Police Department, was unable to recall any really unique method employed during his long connection with the department, and said that year in and year out the records show practically the same choice of means. 25 Monument Leaps Recalled. The most spectacular suicices that he could bring to mind were the leaps of three persons at various times from the Washington Monument. He pointed out, however, that this means has since been effectively elim- inated by placing iron gratings at the Monument windows, and similarly inclosing the elevator shaft, down which a woman once jumped to her } death. The most recent suicide included in the records, that of Mrs. St. George Souissat, of Houston, Tex., who Friday night leaped from the tenth floor of one of Washington's tallest buildings, ee to police officials’ minds the Monument leaps of the 1929. 8 } HUM HOME UPON —_—-——— Shed by Immigration Officials’ Order.

Plante’s home straddles the _ internationai boundary north of this village so that | the main dwelling is in the United He has been forbidden immigration officers in, Canada. by Malone in the land of the free. Plante is not an ignorant man, when he was barred this country after purchasing the property known as Flynn’s Lines a the Department of Labor at Washing- ton from the decision made by an im- migration board of inquiry held at Malone to consider whether he eligible to enter this country. Sincé then a newspaperman found him at work sealing up his woocshed and partitioning it into three tiny rooms in which to survive the rigor- ous Canadian winter, and were broadcasted. Immediately official wheels began to move in Washington and Montreal immigration headquarters and a thor- ough investigation of the case has missioner general of immigration, and H. R. Landis, chief of the Montreal district which incluces Malone. No Reason for Edict. Although the border is famed for paradoxical situations, Plante’s pre- dicament-has no parallel and for this reason it may become still another international cause celebre, precedent forming decision to come in court for now Plante is determined | to have his rights as a taxpayer in the United States. .At present he is “linebound,” the term applied along the border to those people living close to the other skie throvgh fear of arrest. or because barred by the of- ficials. Plante claims to know no reason for being barred. He said that in the 30 years he lived in this country there was no blemish on his record, no arrest or conviction. He came first to Saranac’ Lake in 1900 and later lived for 26 years in California, fol- lowing hig trade of carpenter. He then came back to his old home and about three months ago pur- chased the disputed property. Be- cause he was out of this country then for six weeks the FPedera] red tape demanded tha* he obtain a visa from an American consul before en- tering again. He applied for admission to Will- iam C. Robie, inspector in charge of immigration at Malone, and a board of inquiry was held by the local of- ficilals, which resulteg@ in his being turned back and sterniy forbidden even to live in as much of his house as is in the United States. Halfway Houses. Many An inquiry was made at immigra- tion headquarters here for the rea- son for refusing the admittance of Plante, but Inspector Robie, known as the immigration czar of this border, gruffly replied, “I will give no reason; | he was debarred, that was all.” Commissioner Landis, at Montreal, while waiting for the papers in the case to be forwarded from Malone, | was a little more communicative. He j}said there #s no direct complaint (against Plante, but that he came |from a family. which had always 'been under surveillance for smug- | gling. The place Plante bought is similar 'to many others along the boundary |line between New York and Quebec. | They are known as “halfway houses” or “lines,”’ and the most notorious are | Mary Reilly’s Lines, Jamieson’s Lines and Toland’s Lines Usually they | contain a small country grocery store, and in these stores the grocery coun- ter is in one country and across the | room the dry goods counter is in the | other country. In the old days of petty smuggling | of coal, oil and pork, and when this border was a wild and woolly as any frontier these line houses were the, rendezvous for all sorts of evil com- panies. Even now many of them are used as loading stations for bootleg- gers and ram runners, but in Plante’s case there is no charge against him whatsover and the Government can hardly anticipate what he may do in the future. Toland’s Lines, the house on the boundry road just east of Plant's | place, was the scene of another dis- pute which reached governmental circles in Washington and Ottawa within the last year. It was here the famous border arrest of Howard James King was bungled by American immigration officers again. Makes No Objection. King was wanted for smuggling aliens. He was seized’as he stepped | from the door of the halfway house | by the officers who had been waititig in ambush, but he managed to’ run a half dozen steps into Canada. There he was seized, thrown down, hand- cuffed amd dragged back into the United States and thrown into fail, according to the sworn evidence in the habeas corpus proceedings later brought to release him. King was finally ordered discharged by Judge Frederick H. Bryant in United States Court after the immi- gration officers had been reprimandeg during the proceedings. Arthur Plante appears to be 4 qulet, sober, law abiding sort of citizen. He has made no fuss about the stern edict of the immigration officers, al- though he believes it unreasonable and unjust.

The play awoke the Maryland stands from their slumber, and on the second play foi- lowing the ball was rushed to the Gallaudet 40-yard line. It was here that Dodson probably pulled his greatest feat of the day. Taking perfect aim, the big Maryland back threw.a long, high pass toward the Gallaudet line wihch, at the end of its 40-yard flight, found a safe receiver in the ftrson of Roberts. Grabbing the ball, Roberts juggied it in his arms for a minute but held on to it and staggernig a few steps dropped over the Buff anq. Blue line for a touchdown. John McDonald's placement boot made it 7-0 and the half ended a minute later. Ringle Is Outstanding Star of Game.

Penn Misses Good Chance In Second Quarter. Penn had missed a good chance to score in the second quarter, losing the ball on California’s 15-yeard line, and threatened three times in vain Army another start at midfield.

By PUT HANKERSON (Associated Press Staff Writer). OUISVILLE, Oct. 19 (A.P.).—The + at American pastime. of beating the races” still thrives. The turf publications testify to it, and the corner grocery store “bookie” will swear to it. One of the latest systems has been evolved by a gentleman of the turf who offers to enlighten the unitiated. He says his methods have netted him $300 weekly for years, on an Initial investment of $1,000 A turf publication offers individual systems for sale at 61 each, the ag- gregate being priced wholesale at $79. Of these there is the “baby carriage”’ system. Where the baby carriage comes in is not revealed. Another is the “invisible,” referring. as some caustic turf writers have put it, to the promised profits. Still another is the “chautauqua,” which should involve a high class lecture to the racing horse, but doesn’t, All Systeme Seem Feasible— On Pirst Thought. And the list reads on to include bona fide systems cailed the paddock, nine bet scale, emit, equilibrator, true condition, and the success debit per- centage. Almost all seem feasible on first thought. But with second thought fallacies appear. One player placed recent imaginary bets following a sys- tem which revealed how to tell when @ horse was due, and in doubling his bets according to his system chart for 21 straight races, found himself fac- ing an imaginary loss, fortunately, of $4,194,304. If his had won he would have collected $2.20 on each $2 ticket. There are a few Wise and cagey old “punters” who barely beat the races. But they don’t do it with systems. They do it with knowledge of horses, jockeys, trainers, breeders, and a doz- en other things. Brown Wisdom Wins Feature at Latonia Latonia, Ky, Oct..19 (A.P.).—With C.

TLANTA, Ga., Oct. 19 (A.P.j-— Georgia Tech’s golden tornado, all but wrecked by North Caro- lina last week, got back on the foot- ball map here today with a stirring 19 to 7 triumph over the vaunted Alligators fromthe University of Florida. The victory knocked Florida’s chances for a Southern championship crown higher than’ a kite and sent 7,000 of the. faithful, who had come to Atlanta to see their, team wallop the 1928 champions home with a splitting headache. ; The tornado scored a touchdown before the game was seven minutes old, it added another each in the sec- ond and third. Florida made its only threat in the third period. Florida’s highly touted offensive failed to materialize and except for a brief spurt, which resulted in their lone touchdown, the Gators were on the defensive throughout the after- noon. Earl Dunlap, the passing quar-— terback, and “Stumpy” the Barnes to Be Given i Chance; Manager Likes Loepp. By FRANK H. YOUNG. CHANGED policy with respect to his 1930 Nationals was an- nounced by Manager. Walter Johnson yesterday when he declared that, from now on, the fellow with the punch will get the call over his weaker hitting but better fielding ng for berths on the Washington During the period of more than twenty years when he was rated as rhaps the national game’s greatest pitcher, there was no “rabbit” in the balls, home runs were the exception rather than the rule, and games were won with 1 or 2 runs, putting a premium on defense, Walter declared, ' but his experiences of the past season have convinced him that conditions have changed and that it is the team with the punch that registers the “most victories. For years Washington always has depended upon an air-tight defense, - figuring that it would make up for ( able study,” / 5 the bigger batting margin held by some of its opponents. While John- son was searching for a punch in lining up his team during the season just closed, it was not until the schedule’s halfway mark had been reached that he sacrificed fielding for the first time in favor of batting and gave Buddie Myer the second base assignment. Concentrates on Pitching And Hitting. “I have given the matter consider- Johnson stated, “and from now oh am going to concentrate on pitchers and batting and let field- ing take care of itself.” In' his dis- cussion Walter mentioned Roger Peckinpaugh'’s Cleveland Indians as an example. “Joe Sewell at third. is ‘ slowing up, Fonseca at first is far \rom a finished fielder, while Hodapp at second was only fair on the de- fense,” he stated, “but look at their batting records. “Their errors hurt them, of.course, but their terrific slugging, along with that of Averill, Jamieson, Morgan and Falk on accasions, behind consistently good pitching, gave them third money. Then take the other two teams which finished ah of them. Connie Mack won his nant and = world cham- Pionship with only a fair fielding team, but he benefited from great . pitching and hitting, while the Yan- kees, even though their fielding) was nothing much and their pitching staff shot to pieces, finished second in the race because their batters simply over- powered their opponents. While I { Tiave decided upon a policy of this _ Kind, it Will have to remain: just a ' policy until Scout Joe Engel digs up some talent of either pitching or hit- ting ability.” Goslin Was Biggest Disappointment. Johnson admitted that, in addition . to the three examples he mentioned, J te Pa . ’ j 4 * }, {3 wag the failure of some of the players on his own team which em- Phasized the need of drives from the tee if a team is to get anywhere in baseball these days. “We probably lost twenty games this season by a margin of one run,” he stated, “and on any one of these occasions we had Several opporunities of turning defeat into victory if we could have gotten only one more hit.” While: Walter: did not blame his team’s. failure’ to finish in the first flight on any particular player, he ad- mitted that his I ‘ggest ‘disappoint- ment of the year—and he had many ~——-was Goose Goslin. “When he joined us at the Tampa training camp this spring my only worry was his throw- ing arm; which had -been almost use- less the previous season. He soon showed me that this was O. K. and, in view of the fact that he led the : ‘league in hitting in 1928, I naturally expected great things of him. He end- ed with a mark of about .290—near- ly 100 points below his figures of the year before. Take that many points off a batting average and it certainly is badly felt.” Despite his flashy fielding, West ‘proved a disappointment to John- son, who also called attention to the fact that Sam Rice, Joe Judge and Buddie Myer, of whom much was ex- pected, had their slumps, often at the same time. The Nat leader fig- ures, however, that all except Rice “had poor seasons and will go much better next year, as ‘they already have shown themselvés to be natural hitters. Convinced That the Hit Produces. 1 While declaring that he is now Psconvinced that the hit is the thing in baseball, Johnson admits that-he sees few opportunities to put his new policy into. effect becduse he will have little leeway in selecting his regulars because of the comparative- ly few newcomers corralled. He be- lieves that “Red” Barnes is better ;‘than he proved himself to be in 1929, , remembering that this youngster hit close to a .400°clip in the spring - games, and plans to give him serious mor consideration, while he says that George Loepp, purchased from Balti- more, will prove to be a good man ‘to Nave around. 7] saw Loepp during the 1928 geason while I was in the Interna- tional League and, although he did not boast of a particularly high aver- age, he was fairly reliable at the bat, and had the happy faculty of getting many of his hits when they were ‘needed most. I believe that he will or us.” The only infielder coming up for serious consideration is Jimmy Mc- Leod, but as he hit well under the 300 mark in the Southern Associa- tion, it is hardly likely that he will give the Nats any added punch. Cliff Bolton, the young catcher on whom an option was<exercised, has proven to be a natural slugger, hit- tpz 407 with High Point in 1928 anc well over 300 with New Haven this season, but he used such- poor judgment in drawing a. suspension failing to report here when order- that the Nat owners probably are per whether he is the type of player whom they wanted on their team, In view of the above, it appears that Johnson is like the man who had a button but no suit on which to sew ft. Scout Joe Engel is now ‘gearching for “ivory” ’on the Pacific policy Coast, and many waiver réquests will be received during the off-season s0 that, after all, enough new talent may be rounded up to give Johnson an opportunity of applying his new , wa certain extent, at least.

Give Old Business a Hand; There’s Pluck in Those Boys Prospective Door Mats of School Series Are Fighting Lightweights and May Spring a ‘David and Goliath’ Before Winter. By WILLIAM F. DISMER, JR. T’S just a tough break for Lynn S. Woodworth, coach of the Busi- ness High School Football Team, that all gridiron games can not be decided on sheer fighting spirit and (pardon the expression) plain “guts,” for if such were the case, it is a sure thing that his eleven-men who are about to represent the. Ninth street school on the -field this: fall would bowl over any opposition with com- parative ease and finish far ahead of the nearest competitor. For any one who really knows the make-up of the present Stenog squad, can readily see that gameness is one quality that Woodworth’s men have nothing else but. Although it is a generally regognized .fact that each and every high school team in the city is always possessed with a all- round “espirit de corps,” it is doubt- ful if any team,*anywhere, possesses the continuous courage, pluck and stick-to-it-ivenss..of Woodworth’s cocky bunch of youngsters. . Any group. of boys can exhibit plenty of chatter and fight when they're in the thick of the fight but very rarely is this combination of spirit forthcoming from an aggre- gation far below the contenders. And that’s what the Business team promises to be, through no fault of its own. Resembles 135- Pound Team. Although a squad of about 30 is now golng through daily paces at the Tidal Basin, there isn’t a one over 6 feet or one weighing over 175 pounds, if that much. On the whole, the team resembles an eleven in the 135- pound class and a passer-by might be justified in thinking that it was a grammar school team in training. Faced with an impending season of almost certain failure, this bunch of heart-and-soul gridironers is going through daily workouts wit’: a vim and hustle that would do credit to a contender for a championship on the eve of its biggest game. It’s been a long time since any kind of an athletic title has been won by a Busi- ness High team, but this fact fails to discourage the present edition of the Stenogs pigskin wearers. Already the Business team h played two games with the discourag- ing résult of two defeats. But is that worrying or dimming its spirit? Not on your life! Business Gave Emerson Hard Battle. ‘ When the Business team ran up against a bigger, older, and more ex- perienced eleven’ of Emerson Insti- tute, Woodworth’s band of gamesters fought the prepmen with a stub- bornness in the first half which spoke for itself with a 6-0 score. Their wedkening during the final steges of the game came only as 4 result of the inevitable’ course of na- ture which permits "good big men to ‘can't: change that. & Sasse Relieves Jones As Army Grid Coach Boston, Oct. 19 (A.P.).—Ap- pointment of Maj.

But the size of the Emersonians failed to provide sufficient reason for the Stenogs to give up and their fail- ure to stop their superior opponents’ onrushes only made them fight the harder. And when Woodworth, see- ing the task was useless, relieved his regulars late in the game, there wasn’t a one that didn’t come off that field with tears in his eyes, earnestly pleading their coach for “just one more chance at those guys.” Woodworth Loud In Praise. That’s the kind of men Woodworth coaches and it’s a bunch that makes him happy to be in his profession. Faced against Gonzaga last Friday, the Businéss team was. agdin forced to bow to a superior. opponent, but its coach spoke up for his boys in a proud .manner.. “Yes, they. were bedten,” said: Wood- worth.wistfully, “but, gosh, how they fought!

We may lose, but if we fight all the way like we’ve fought so far, something’s got to happen!” And his words may not be far. from wrong. A team incensed with a con- tinuous fight has to break through some time, and woe be unto any team that lets down when playing Business as a “set-up!” RAINBOWS WIN, 24-12.

Central High scored early in the fourth period when Pickney_ went through the line on a buck and swept by the secondary defense to dash 63 yards for a touch- down. After York High had scored in the second period, Central started an ad- vance from one end.of the field to the other. The ball was carried almost entirely by Delisio, who bucked the line three and four times successively.

Duke Weary as Game Nears End. By this time the visitors were £0 apparently bewildered and petered out that Navy added two points after touchdowns via forward passes, and in another instance; Binns bucked through the line to cover the neces- sary 5 yards. The visitors made a couple of good passes and madé?a few other gains on end sweeps, but at no stage could they muster anything like a sustained attack to develop a thréat. One of the surprises of the game was the fact that Jankoski, Duke's back fleld ace, was used seldom as a ball-carrier. He heaved aerials like a past master, and Hyatt-was gen- erlly on the receiving end. However, only four out of twelve such plays were completed. Regardless of Duke’s weak defense in the second half, the naval lads put lots of ginger into their work. Every worthwhile ball-toter had a chance, and some of the neatest gains were made by Williams, who has just come up to the varsity from the “B” squad.

ILLANOVA, Pa.,°Oct. 19.—Villa- nova College’s Football Club to- day turned back Catholic: Uni- versity in the Pennsylvania Stadium after a thrilling 60-minute battle, by a 12 to 0 score. The home team made its two touch- downs in the first and second quar- ters. tuhldreher, member of Villa- move, pushed in his “shock. troops” to start the encounter and they sur- prised by gaining at will through the Cardinal line. Jack Birmingham scin- tillated with several spectacular gains in the opening period and was chiefly instrumental in enabling Gardner to Cive over the goal line for the first touchdown. The second-string Wild Cate toted the pigskin 92 yards for the score without being halted... How- ever, the big feature came on the Kick-off Oliver received the ball and ran 85 yards to the Villanqgva 3-yard lisse, where August brought Nipr down. The Wild Cats then held and on re- celving the ball began their big Parade down the field. The Villanova varsity took the field in the middle of the second period, and after an exchange of punts they carried the pigskin 84 yards for the final score, Gillespie tallying. Warm Weather Slows Game. The balance .of the game found neither team playing very well, the hot weather sapping the players’ strength. Villanova had another chance to score in the waning min- utes when Morgan, quarter back, ran back a punt 45 yards to the 5-yard Mne only to have Catholic hold. Most of the last quarter both clubs | long I tried desperately to score via passes. Murphy, Champa and Oliver. shone fer the Capital City. .The former's long passes and the latter’s end run- ming keeping the Villanova fans -in constant anxiety. Villanova fumbled six times and recovered twice while the _ visitors were perfect in this respect. In the faatter of passes the visitors tried 26 and completed 9 for 91 yards; 3 were intercepted. Villanova completed 4 out of 9 for 47 yards; none were Inter- cepted. Villanova gained 338 yards from scrimmage and her opponents 119 yards. C. U. made 3 first downs and Villanova 13. the Villanova at the start but they soon buckled after the lue White regulars took the field. dently the homsters have not recov- ered as yet from the Boston College game of the previous Saturday when their offense crumbled when within scoring range.

Va., Oct. 19.— _over the Washington and Lee Gen- erals, 26-6, in the sixteenth meeting of these two teams on Laidley Field here today. More than 14,500 fans packed the stadium to witness Coach Ira Rodger’s Mountaineers uncover a real “find” in sophomore Jake Sebulsky, a half back who, played his first varsity game when substituted as a third string man. There were no other particular stars for the West Virginians, with each of the ten backs Coach Ira Rodgers used working well behind a hard-charging line. The West Virginians repulsed a Washington and Lee drive on their l-yard line midway of the first quarter, and after an exchange of punts,.a-General back fumbled going Virginia; recovered on his own 20-yard line. From this point the Rodgers- men marched to midfield where they were forced to punt.

Glenn’s kick was good this time. A Washington and Lee drive was halted on thé West Virginia 12- yard line just before the half ended when Plaster, Mountaineer center, in- tercepted a pass and soon afterward Sebulsky punted out of danger, When Varney fumbled going into the line about midway of the third through the line and Scott, of West |{quarter, Bledsoe recovered for the Generals and a long run around left ‘end by Thibodeau and two short pass- es, Faulkner to Mattox and Faulkner to Williams, netted a touchdown, the latter for a gain of 11 yards and the Generals’ only score.

Oct. 19.—Billy Angle, Dickinson quarter back and captain, led his team to its first victory of the season and prac- tically single-handed defeated George Washington University when the teams met on Biddle Field today, by the score of 7 to 6. After both teams had battled up and down the field for the entire first half, which ended scoreless, Perry, of the visitors, was pushed across the goal line for the first score of the game. McGrew, kick- er for the Colonials, failed to make the point after touchdown, which a nave saved his team from de- eat. Angle Méhes Touchdown To Tie Score: In the third quarter, Angle scored the touchdown that tied the game and followed with the placement kick that scored the winning poimt. The first half was marked by seventeen fumbles about equally divided be- tween both teams. The teams were well matched with the odds slightly favoring the Carlisle team. Twice in the first half Dickinson had the ball in scoring position, being only one or two yards from the goal, but in each instance they were unable to penetrate the Colonials’ defense in four attempts. Throughout the éntire game, the teams attempted to open up aerial attacks the majority of which proved fruitless and it was not until the third quarter that George Washing- ton was able to make any substantial gains by the way of aerial route. McGrew Outkhicks His Rival. The visitors star punter, McGrew outkicked Angle at every exchange of punts and it was only by the pluckiest kind of open field running and line plunges that Dickinson was able to overcome this advantage.

The Georgetown board of strategy— Coach Little and his assistants— factored as much in the victory as the players. Wise substitutions gave the Hilltoppers effectual changes in at- tack. Scalzi, Bozek Enter Game At Right Time. Scalzi went in for Gardner and added his mighty arm for forward passing. place of his brother, Emil, and in- serted deceptive running. Gillis, who had been relieved in the first half, was returned in the seccnd to lend his fine defensive ability. . Scalzi stopped a threatening Wes- leyan drive in the third quarter when the Bobcats opened a terrific ground attack with Rodriguez reeling off most of the individual gains. The Georgetown second-string quarter back grabbed a fumble at this point and hiked 60 yards to the goal lines only to be called back, according to the new rules, but his alertness did gain possession of the ball for his team. Rodriguez was used little in the Wesleyan offense during the first half. Coach Cebe Ross evidently had fig- ured Georgetown to prepare a de- fense especially to stop his famous back field star. Cliff Battles, instead, was designated to bear the burden of the attack and he turned in a creditable job that would have been the outstanding individual effcrt of the day except for the sensational de- velopments of the Jast ten minutes. The fans were treated to a great exhibition..of __defensive _footbali throughout the first three quarters. Neither team could sustain a drive and frequent exchanges of punts by Mooney and Rodriguez resulted. G. U. Makes Only Threat of First 3 Periods. The closest either side came to & score prior to the waning moments occurred soon after the start of the third quarter when Georgetown pene- trated to Wesleyan’s ll-yard line on a series of passes, reverse off-tackle smashes and spinner plays through the center. A fumble here was re- covered by a Wesleyan lineman and enabled Rodriguez to punt out of danger. On the first play following Rodri- guez’s punt from behind the goal line in the fourth quarter, Johnny;8B Bozek twisted through tackle for 6 yards. Scalzi then heaved an aerial to Bozek for 5 yards and a first down on .Wesleyan’s 20-yard line, from where Leary stepped off the remain- ‘ing distance with a fine piece of broken field running. He shook off two tacklers as he dove across the line. * Gillis took the ball to the 4-yard line after recovering Rodriguez’s fumble on the next kick-off. Again Gillis advanced but was held to half a yard, and Scalzi tore off 2 yards as the Wesleyan defense concentrated for a goal-line stand. Scalzi crossed the visitors:up and called for a triple pass behind thé line which sent Bo- zek out in open territory on the flank of an easy jog across the goal mark. Wynkoop Uses Head in Making Final Touchdown. Wynkoop’s touchdown was scored in less time than it takes to relate it. He made it appear simple—grab- bing the loose ball and running down the field—but a great stroke of brain work really performed the feat. Georgetown. BECONAN ..cccces Cordovano ....e>s- Liston ...

AMERICAN U.| * DEFEATED, 13 TO6 Special to The Washington Post. ALTIMORE, Md., Oct. 19.—The B University of Raltimore won its first football game this after- noon when it defeated American Uni- . versity at Moynt Washington by the secure of 13 to 6. This year is the first that Baltimore — University has had an eleven on the field, and in its three previous starts has been the loser. _ Although the playing today was loose at times: both teams were fighting throughout the entire 60 minutes, and Baltimore was not certain of victory until the , final whistle blew. The Baltimore team’s strength was in its line plays. The local linesmen were heavier, and displayed more skilj than the Washington line. Behind this strong forward wall there was &@ fast back field. The visitors resorted to forward passing to gain most of their ground and spirals from Lafavre to netted the Methodists’ their longest advances, Aerial Attack Almost Nets Score. The first quarter opened with an aerial attack launched by American University that almost ended in & score, but the Baltimore Team stiff ened and started a steady advance down the field by rushing. The was only half over when Neff went over for the first. touchdown. Gut- schall added the extra int By a placement’ kick which ced on the cross bar before going over. During the second and third quar-— ters, the battle was in the center of the field, for the most part, although each team threatened several times. Tt was not until the final session ~ that any more scoring was done. The Methodists started an overhead ad- vance that could not be stopped by the Baltimore defense. The combina- tion of Lafavre. and Targie gained a lot of ground, and with the ball on the 3-yard strip. Jack Lafavre webt over for the only American U. score.4 The attempt to add an extra point | by place kick was blocked. Baltimore Makes Touchdown. The rally of the. visitors seemed to add life to the Baltimore eleven, for right after the kick-off it started a. march down the field. Gutschall ran back the kick 20 yards, and Tierney smashed through the lines for more gains and went over for a touchdown from the 65-yard mark. Gutschall failed to make his second placement kick good. The visitors then started another Tush for the goal, but it came tou late, as the game ended with the ball on the 30-yard stripe. Baltimore U.

Staunton, Va., Oct. 19,—Deter- mined fighting Staunton Military Academy Eleven, whose goa) line has been forbidden territory to its op- ponents all through the 1929 cam- paign, kept its season's record intact nd its banner unsullied when it de- féated Episcopal High School, of Alex. andria, here this afternoon. The Cadets scored a touchdown itn the first 12 minutes o*% play and. an- other as the evening shadows heralded the final whistle, and, in between, they amassed enough points to roll a 33, to 0 score. Meanwhile, their own goal line had never been in seri- bus danger, as the Cadets repelled repeated enemy thrusts. While un- eble to score, at times Episcopal gave determined resistance, particularly in the second quarter when the Cadets cored. Gooch was effective for the ‘dexandrians throughout the game, but his efforts were nullified by fall- 1re-of his teammates to press the ad- antage Tilton and Owen likewise were continually in the limelight for the visitors.

ELAWARE, Ohio, Oct. 19 (A.P.). —Coach Gearge E. Gauthier, the “little giant” of Ohio foot- ball, ig confident his Ohio Wesleyan cng hy will conquer the Army Novem- r2 Bince 1922, when his team held Ohio State to a 5 to 0 score, Gauthier- coached teams have won three Ohio championships, tied for a fourth and piled up 1,003 points against oOppo- nents’ 406. Only five Ohio teams have won from Ohio Wesleyan in the past seVen years. Gauthier’s crowning achievement was his 1928 eleven which won eight consecutive games, including victories over Michigan and Syracuse, In 1922 Gauthier’s team won the Ohio inter-collegiate championship without a single defeat. Another championship came his. way in 1923 and still another in 1925. Last year a series of “breaks” gave Wittenberg. University an unexpected 7 to 6 vic- tory over Wesleyan to tie the Bishops for the Ohlo grid title. Gauthier is so tiny that during his sophomore yeaf at Michigan State Coach John Macklin told him there were no suits small enough to fit him, and besides he would “get all broken up playing with those big fe’lows.” Refusing to give up, he found an old pair of moleskins and went out for practice and became the varsiiy He played with the Michigan Aggies two years, in 1912 and 1913, and the team lost but one game in the two seasons.

By winning the recent Kentucky Jockey Club Stakes at Churchill Downs, Desert Light gained a strong following among players of the “tri- ology system.” The last two winners of the event also won the Derby—Reigh Count in 1928 and Clyde Van Dusen in 1929 Desert Light: is owned by the Fair Stable of Mrs. Graham Fair Vander- bilt.

It is doubtful, however, if he has ever stacked up against another end of the brilliancy of the Panther star. Donchess. Donchess is playing his last year as a Pitt regular. He is a tough man to take out of the play on the defense, and on the offense, he can not only manhandle the tackles, but is a clever performer at snaring forwards.

Frosh Gridmen Learning Fundamentals : All Candidates, Rather Than Selected Few, Given Full Course of Warner System of | Play Following New Policy at Poly. Special to The Washington Post. LACKSBURG. Va. Oct. Eighty candidates for V. P. I. ‘s | freshman eleven are learning the fundamentals of the Warner system of football under Director of Freshman Athletics Ponry Redd and his staff of three assistants. The squad ended four weeks of inten- sivé training in the opening game with Roanoke College freshmen in Miles Stadium yesterday. The squad this year has few if any outstanding men, but will be —bet- ter balanced than that of 1928. Three full weeks were given to the fundamentals of the Warner system of play. All backs reéeived the same amount of instruction under Coach Redd and his assistant, Toots Dela- Barre, ful) back under Ben Cubbage in "24 and ‘25. Bill Bailey. captain of the 1928 team, and Phil Hotchkiss. another all-State star last year, have charge of the linemen. These coaches did. not shift the gutstanding men to @ separate group until last week. Fall Training Course for All Candidates. This is in keeping with the cur- rént policy of sacrificing added in- t 4 | struction for a select few to enable to play football. Only those who drop from the squad rolls volun- tarily or those shown to be physi- cally unable to withstand the ardu- ous demands of the gridiron game will not be trained throughout the full eight weeks. The main idea at V. P. I. is not to build the strongest freshman athletic teams possible at the cost of instruc- tion for many others of less ability. Coaches are provided this year for scores who will never make 4 fresh- man team but who will be benefited by the train.ng. Team strength is.also being sacri- ficed in trafiming the yearlings for vacancies in varsity ranks next year Several candidates are-playing in un- familiar positions to fit them for the Places Andy Gustafson must fill in 1929.

The donors of the trophy are all former fellow golfers of Tailer’s, who, “competing in the event, enjoyed his loving friendship.” Tailer died last Christmas Day. The donors include John G.

While eariy season hopes are not high for Georgia as a football team, the Bulldogs can rightly be called the most colorful outfit in the Southern conference. GOLF | AS CHAMPIONS. PLAY IT. 7 VAROON GRIP ? Sse - '§ A PALM GRIPIS BETTER FOR SHORT FINGERED GOLFERS What are the comparative ad- vantages of the Vardon and Ouimet grips? Anqwered -by BOB CRUICKSHANK, Winner of Los Angeles, San Antonio, Het Springs, North-and-South open championships, 1927. 7 grips allow the roll of the wrists in the backswing to take place more naturally. The hands are joined together and so work in unison. Finally, they allow the grip to rest in the fingers and so insure a better touch, However, in the case of the Vardon grip, péeple with small hands and short fingers would not have so much control as they would with the ordi- nary palm grip. Ouimet’s grip does not suit every one either, for if it is not used properly hookipg will result to a great extent. OQuimet himself plays a slight hook in his longest shots. There are many good golfers today, and some of them stars, who use the palm grip. For the average golfer I would advocate, that he use the grip most adaptable to himself. (Copyrie**, 1429.)

Dooly Mitchell, whose splendid play in the Wardman Park tournament en- abled him to completely outclass the an almost entirely new game in the final round, where he defeated Tom.

Whether he |has heeded advice or not is hardly | the question. The fact that he seems |to have combined a slugging game |with the uninspiring art of keeping | ‘Lacoste and His Fiancee ithe ball in play is the point. His improvement from this |point should be almost unlimited. | Next year he intends to take in some |of the larger Eastern tournaments. interesting Ranking Committee Faces | Difficult Task. | Mitchell’s win of the Wardman tournament further complicates mat- ters for the long suffering ranking committee, headed by Bob Newby. The four big championships in Wash- ington are held by four different play- ers. All of them beat each other, it seems. But, no matter how Newby jand company rank the players, the ;eternal question of, “Why did they | put McSwatt ahead of me when I can | beat that egg blindfolded,” will arise. Today may go down in Washing- ton’s tennis history. At 3 o’clock the first “open”’ exhibition match will be staged at Columbia Country Club. Local fans are invited to witness a match between Tom Mangan, City of Washington champion, and Jimmy Mitchell, the tennis professional] at Columbia. As if that were not enough for one day, Dooly Mitchell will face the veteran, Otto Glockler. professiona] for many years at Chevy Chase. In the doubles the amateurs will unite in an attempt to stave off defeat by the pros. ° Jimmy Mitchell’s, game has im- proved immensely in cunning and dexterity since being pledged to that loyal fraternity.

Beating the French is something else again. Both Kozeluh and’ Rich- ards have the highest respect for the playing of Cochet-and La Coste. Yet there is somé ground for the belief that if open tournaments were per- mitted Kozeluh and Richards would cause trouble for the famous mrusket- eers. FOR TEAM AT VA. Capt. MclIlhaney One of 3 Letter Men to Report. Special to The Washington Post. HARLOTTESVILLE, VA., Oct. 12. Three letter men of last year, headed by Capt. Lewis McIn- haney, have answered the call for cross-country candidates at the Uni- vérsity ot Virginia, issued by Coach Hahn. Besides these veterans, five members of the 1928 first-year team have reported, together with sveral other candidates, Of the eight men who received varsity letters last fall, only four are back in the university at the present time, and one of them is ineligible. Besides Capt. MclIlhaney, Charles Ochs and Brooke Maury will again represent the Orange and Blue. Thornton, the fourth letter man, is nor eligible, Jimmy Worral is expected to give the veterans a hard fight for a high berth on the team. He is the holder of the Annapolis course record, which lie established last year in a dual meet between the plebes and the Virginia .first-year men. The other numeral winners are Holden, Alexander, Weaver and Sprague. Steiner, 440 and dash man ‘from New York City, is also showing up well in practice. ‘The 1929. schedule involves three meets away from the university, with the possibility of a trip to the South- efn Conference meet. Princeton and the Navy are on this year's schedule and will be met in Princeton and Annapolis, réspectively. The State meet at Virginia Polytechnic Insti- tute, Blacksburg, is the thirda trip for the team. When Richards and the Frerich rere |Michigan Plans War climbing the ladder together back in 1924, Vinnie trimmed La Coste, Co- chet and Jean Borotra as well on the way to the Olympic singles crown. Two Leading Pros Among First Five. Kozeluh never played any of the three, but has swapped strokes with them in the line of his duties as coach of various Davis Cup stars. . On the basis of the tennis they played in the national pro final. Koze- luh and Richards belong on any man’s list of the five best tennis players in the world. There may be some difference of opinion about the order, but this is probably as good as any: 1, Cochet, France. 2. Kozeluh, Czechoslovakia. 3. Richards, United States. 4. La Coste, France. 5. Tilden, United States. & When Bush, of Cubs, Played Only for Fame Jackson, Miss., Oct. 19 (A.P.).—As recently as seven years ago Guy Bush, who helped the Chicago Cubs win the National League pennant, was satisfied with a “good write-up” for a diamond victory. N. H. Crenshaw, tells the story. The Baldwyn, Miss., Club needed a pitcher for a game in a small town league and Bush consented to do the mound work if a substitute were hired to finish the plowing .on his father’s farm. Bush won the game, Crenshaw fre- lates, and was offered a $10 bonus. ‘This he scornec, saying: “I don’t care about the money. All I want is a good write-up in the Jackson banker, On Golf Course Pest East Lansing, Mich., Oct. 19 (A.P.). Michigan plans a war-on the golf course pest. Fairways and greens are in the shadow of ruin, all because of the habits of a field pest which before the golf era confined its destructive ways to the farm and garden. The white grub, or June beetle, as it is commonly known, has become a menace to golf courses, Prof. R. H. Pettit, Michigan State College ento- mologist, says. He contemplates a specia} forecasting service in Michi- gan next year to keep back the pest. Maturing in three-year cycles, the beetle is expected to launch its heavy attack on Michigan golf courses next year. While feeding on roots and grasses, the pest swallows some soil with its diet, This may prove its own death. Army Takes Control Of Sports in Turkey Angora, Turkey, Oct. 19 (A.P.).— Sports are to be militarized in Tur- key, Kiazim Pasha, president of the Turkish Parliament, states in-an in- terview. The. Turkish government desires a strong army of sportsmen, he said, but it is deplorable that the country as a whole has not understood that sport constitutes the strongest arm for defense. As a result of the poor showing of civilian sport federations, despite the subsidies granted by the government, all sports in Turkey will be put under military control the coming paper.” year. Fashion Shop Soccerists . To Play Gaeltc-Americans Contest Only Local One of Three Listed in Capital City League Today; Protested Game May Be Replayed. By RICHARD 8S, TENNYSON. ASHION Shop and Gaelic-Ameri- cans wil meet in the only local soccer match today, although three are listed on the Capital City league card. Rockville will play Marlboro and Silver Spring will play Gaithersburg at Gaithersnpurg. The Fashion Shop-Gaelic-American tilt is slated for the Monument grounds. On the Fashion Shop Eleven will be found a mixture of the old Rose- dale and Arcadian teams, while the Gaelic club has on its roster several members of the former Clan Mac- Lennan outfit and several players who have not performed on local pitches before. Earl Clark has received pcrmission from the Boston Brave management, by whom eh is employed as an out- fielder, to play sdccer this seasoirr and he will be found in the Fashion Shop lineup. The Irish kickers made their debut last Sunday and received a 4 to 1 setback at the hands of Gaithersburg. The Fashion Shop- Gaelic match promises to be an in- teresting one, although the: former appears to have a slight edge. Ed- ward Kruse will referee. Rockville-Marlboro Game Promises Action. The Rockville-Marlboro match will be worth a trip to the little Maryland town. a sboth clubs are fast und ex- perienced. Marlboro opened :ts ‘ea- son with a victory last Sunday over Silver Spring, while Rockville. ~-ham- pions of the Capital City League last season will be making its 329 vebut today. Bill Castle will referee. Stlver Spring looked like a world beater in the second half of its game against Marlboro last Sunday and if the Gaithersburg kickers hope to keep on their winning way they must exert every effort. Jack Caldwell will call the fouls in this contest. The status of the Silver Spring- Marlboro game of last Sunday, which was protested because the Marlboro Team used a substitute, is still an open question. The protest of the Silver Spring Club has been bounced first looking bright, then dark, and now it appears that the protesting ‘club has a chance to have the game replayed. Referee Bases Ruling on New U. S. R. F. A. Change. The referee of the game, Bill Castle, permitted the substitution, using as his authority the referees’ chart, pub- lished by the United States Referees Association, which specifically says: “In all games, two substitutes will be allowed up to fifteen minutes from the end. of the regulation game. A Player ordered from the field of play for ‘misconduct can not be replaced.” This rule was incorporated in the rules after the meeting of the United States Football Association in. Cleve- to permit substitutions. The puz- zgling thing to local. officials for a few days was that in the manual pub- lished by the U. S. F. A., substitutions were prohibited. This difference was cleared up yes- terday by a letter to the secretary of the. Washington Association from Thomas W. Cahill, secretary of the U. S. F. A. Mr. Cahill’s letter fol- lows: “I am writing concerning the substitutes of players as adopted at the last annual meeting of the U. .. 2. &.” Capital City League Teams List Players. “This subject was discussed ana finally passed atethat convention, but it was later deemed advisable that same be not put into effect owing to the..fact.that.permission ot the F. I. F. A. was needed in order to make such an important change.” “The United States Soccer Refer- ees Association incorporated this change in its chart for 1929-30, but it should not appear there.” This settles definitely that the sub- stitution of last Sunday was illegal and the secretary of the Washington and Southeastern District Soccer Association wishes this to serve as notice to referees that in all future matches no substitutions are to be permitted. All of the Capital City League regis- trations have been received in the office of the secretary and it is ex- pected that the Washington Soccer League eligibles will be turned over after the meeting of that league next Tuesday in Room 2, District Building.

NOTE—The followin solicitation of James Insists his But rhyme, written some time ago, is now reprinted at the rth, the clever cartoonist of The Washington Post, who doubtedly read it with understanding and appreciation. I have-a certain golfing friend, who, when he’s on the tee, rene is rotten, just as rotten as can be; e either lied—or blundered— When he said he shot a hundred un- on For he made an 87 on the day he played with me. GROUP of several golfers sat around the nineteenta hole at the Columbia Club last week and discussed their experiences in the various club invitation goif tourna- ments during the past season. Nine- tenths of the conversation related to violations of the rules. “Why don’t you write a siledge- hammer article,” suggested Frank S. Appleman, “and teach a lesson to the golfers who either ignorantly or delib- erately violate the rules. Keep ever- lastingly at it until they learn the things they ought to know.” A grand and glorious idea-—but an almost hopeless task. To try to teach the rules to the average golfer is like pouring water on a duck’s back. There is hardly a player who does not like to read or talk about:the rules but not one in a hundred wil] make a careful study of the book in which the rules are to be found. For instance, how many golfers know— That if. their ball hits their part- ner’s ball in a medal play round, the penalty is one stroke? Or that if a ball in a qualification round hits the flagstaff when played from a distance of less than twenty yards, the player is penalized two strokes? Or that in match play a ball dis- placed on the putting green can be replaced or left in its new position at the option of its owner? Every Putt Must Be Holed Out. Or that in medal play every putt must be holed out or else the player is disqualified? Or that—but what's the use? One of the numerous incidents re- lated during the symposium con- cerned a contestant in a qualifica- tions round who picked up his ball when it was lying within a few inches of the cup and then marked down a figure on’ his score-card. His partner admitted that he had seen the ball lifted with a conceded putt and that he had attested the card because, he said, he did not think it worth while to report the incident. “Why not?” “Because I did not want to be con- sidered a short sport.” -This may be in full accord with the gospel of sweetness and light as preached by Matthew Arnold, but it is not golf. In medal play the penalty for inaccurate scoring—and certainly no figure can be honestly set down on a card when a ball is lifted instead of being putted—is disqualification. There is no alternative, except that before driving from the next tee a player nay go back to the green and putt his ball into the cup, adding two strokes to his score for the hole. When the rule is positive and ex~- plicit there is no excuse for playing the game in free and easy fashion. Rules Are-Rules Despite Friendships. One of the golfers who participated in the discussion asked a question. Paraphrasing a famous remark made long ago In Congress, he inquired, “But what are the rules between friends?” He was quite surprised to learn that a competitor who waives any penalty incurred by a violation of the rules in match play is himself disqualified. “‘Competitors shall not agree to exclude the operation of any rule or local rule,” says rule 2 under the head of “special rules. for match- play competitions,” “nor to waive any penalty incurred in the course of the match, under penalty of their dis- qualification.” This is a good rule, although its existence seems to be known to only a small majority of the players, be- cause it makes any one who condones an offense equally guilty with the offender. How many players, how- ever, will fail to enforce a rule against an opponent because they “do not want to win a hole on a techni- cality.” All of which Is perfectly lovely, but none the less, rules are rules and if they are not to -be observed they might as well be in the bottom of the deep blue sea. It is true that many of the rules are indefinite, contra- dictory and conflicting, but the fundamentals of the game are clear- ly expressed, and they ought to be familiar to every golfer. Unfortunate- ly, this is not the case. Here’s Case .That Illustrates. A case which IUillustrates how a golfer may be generously disposed to disregard the rules occurred last week on the Bannockburn course, where the club championship matches are in progress. . William L. Pendergast was scheduled to play Daniel C. Hazard, while Leo. F. Pass was paired against W. Fred Byrne. All four---were- playing to- gether. On the second hole, where there is a decided slope on the ap- proach to the. greeri, Hazard played his second shot into “ground under repair” on the left of the green, which allowed him, under a local rule, to drop on the‘fairway in front of the green on the hillside. He laid his bag down about fifteen feet below where he was to drop the ball, the opening pointing toward the hole. Facing the hole he dropped the ball and it rolled down the hill into the bag, out of sight. The question. then arose as to whether or not he was compelled to play the ball in the bag. Pendergast promptly announced his willingness to let his opponent extricate the ball from the bag and drop it again, but Hazard insisted that he had penalized himself with an unplayable lie. In- stead of going back and taking the penalty, he hit the bag four times in jthe hope that the ball would roll There- out but it did not appear. upon he gave up the hole, Indian Spring Women Form Teams. The women players at the Indian Spring Club have formed two teams, known as the Pygmies and the Ama- zons and will play a’match this afternoon on the Nassau system. As to the personnel of the two teams, this column is profoundly ignorant. The championship tournament of the Middle Atlantic Professional Golfers Association will be played to- morrow on the course of the Chevy Chase Club. A qualifying round of eighteen holes will be played, with match play rounds on Tuesday and The assistant profes- sionals will hold their championship next Friday on the course of the Congressional Club. * _ It will be remembered that a year ‘or so ago the Japanese beetle created wholesale havoc on the putting greens and fairways of numerous golf courses in New Jersey. Every effort was made to quarantine the region but it is evident the endeavor was not successful for more than @ hun- ~ dred of these devastating insects! have been collected in traps on pub+ lic and private grounds in this sec tion. The trap is a funnel-shapec pail baited with geraniol, the odor of geraniums, | beetle slides down the funnel — fruit jar. The trapping has n adopted in the hope that it will re- duce the spread of the pest, but un fortunately it is doubtful if the beetles can be entirely destroyed. If they should multiply the green- keepers will have a ‘serious problem on their hands. And the- Affidavit Ts Lost! . In the recent Columbia Club cham- pionship tournament, playing in the defeated eights, the defeated fours, the defeated twos or defeated some- thing-or-other, O. J. De Moll and Les- ter C. Pate were opponents, As they drove off from the first tee and walk ed down the fairway, a remark by Dr Charles Keefer attracted attention. “Before that pair gets through,” he said, “De Moll will sell Pate a radio and Pate will sell De Moll an auto- mobile.” By the time the players had reached the fifth hole De Moll was delivering a lecture upon a new make of radio’and Pate was giving him a willing ear. At the eleventh tee Pate was discoursing at length concerning the numerous virtues of a certain make of motor cag and when the final hole was reached Pate had bought the radio and De.Moll had agreed to buy a new. car. Both of them remained to th ciub dinner, but when Pate reached home the radio had already been if- stalled in his library and in front of De Moll’s door was the new car. Incidentally, wiio won the golf match? Nobody kruows—and the af- fidavit accompanying the above story; has been lost. d Gen. Treat Is Hero At Chevy Chase. When a golfer who admits having reached threescore and ten plays the Chevy Chase course—and the course. is by no means an easy one—in &3 est hy : , p strokes the fact is worth something | more than @ passing notice. In the senior amateur~professional tournament at Chevy Chase Club last week Gen. C. G. Treat was the hero. He shared with Ralph Beach, who used to be the Chevy Chase profes- sional, the honor of winning the firsté prize. One or two things about his game are noticeable. He does not, in the first place, weigh himself down with 50 pounds, more or less; of iron clubs, and four or five bludgeons in the shape of drivers and brassies and spoons. His outfit consists of three, or never more than four, clubs and his putter is the deadliest of them all. When he putts his left arm extende down his side’ and he stands like a soldier at attention. His putter, held only in his right hand, swings like a pendulum to‘ and fro and the ball, when struck, goes straight to the cup In his round last week he had onl # one 3-putt green. This was the last one of the eighteen. and gave him the only 6 on his card. Rolling Road Members To Invade. Twenty-four members of the Roll ing Road Club are expected to travel from Baltimore to the Indian Spring Club today for a team match. Sev- eral of these contests have already been played both here and in Balti- more with varying results, but the events are always most enjoyable. Accompanying the visitors will be Car roll McMaster, the Rolling Road pro fessional, and James Roche, of the Elkridge Club, who will play against J. Monro Hunter and George Diffen- baugh, professional and assistant professional.at Indian Spring. Harry G. Pitt has a remarkab!l best-ball record as the result of hi rounds of golf at the Manor Club during the past season. His card to- tals 27-25—52, with a birdie on eve ery hole and an eagle 3 on the fif- teenth. He reached the latter climax last Sunday. The hole is $85 yards in length, and Pitt, after two fin wooden shots, holed out an 8-foot putt for his 3. His card, compared — the par of the course, is as fol- Ows: A curious scene was witnessed .last week on the course of the Indian Spring Club. R,. M. Osborn, a member of the club, has a friend who’ has the mis8-s fortune to have lost his right leg fro the hip down during the World War. He walks on crutches but nevertheless he plays golf. Handing his crutches toa caddy he hops toward his~ ball and then, balancing himself on his one leg, he drives, brassies and putts with apparently no inconvenience whatever. ’ When Osborn played with his one-_ légged friend last week he resolved to meet his guest on even terms and every shot was made while he balanced himself on his left leg. No record . was kept of the strokes but the round,§ was certainly most unique. Talcott Is Winner Among Seniors. E. M. Talcott won the September Morn Cup in the seniors’ competition at the Chevy Chase club, defeating Gen.-C. G. Treat, 3 and 2. With an extensive program arranged by Gen.¥ D. C. Shanks, chairman of the golf committee, the seniors have had a busy season, Roland MacKenzie, who was in Washington for a brief visit last week, has filed his application for junior membership in the Sleepy Hollow Club, near Tarrytown on the Hudson. Last week MacKenzie broke the rec- ord of the Sleepy Hollow course, scoring 36 on the out-going nine and 31 for the inward journey, a total of G7 strokes. « The triple tie tn the third division of the recent Columbia Club cham- pionship between Dr. R. L. Eller, J. F. M. Bowie and -W. Ray Garrett, each 87, was decided last week in favor of Dr. Eller. At the end of the first nine in the play-off Bowie and Gar- rett were'tied with 45 as against 4 for Eller. .On the sixteenth tee Gar- rett had a\three-stroke lead on Eller. with Bowle in the rear, owing to strokes wasted on the putting green. On the sixteenth green Eller gained & stroke by running dowr aj utt from the far edge of the green for a birdie 2, and when he scored a par 4 on thes seventeenth, Garrett's drive into the ditch costing him a 6, the strokes were all even. Garrett overapproach- ed the eighteenth green and holed out in 6, while Eller, on the green } in 3, went down in two putts for a 5 winning the play-off by one.stroke. | i A — \ *.¢ . . *etets eomweoererteee *eeere LAD * * ** eeeeeeer seeereraeeere ee eeeeereeree wa eeeeeere ho:

Oct. 19.—The, new medical school building of the University of Virginia, which will be) dedicated next Tuesday, is one of the | most thoroughly modern structures for the teaching of medicine in the | United States. Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur, Secretary | of the Interior, will deliver the chief | address at the exercises of dedication | to be held in Cabell Hall Tuesday | morning. The Medical Society of Vir- | ginia will hold its annual meeting | in Charlottesville in connection with | the dedication. The program will | continue through Wednesday and/| Thursday. The structure was built and equip- | ped at a cost of more than $1,400,000, it is architecturally beautiful, con- venient and well equipped. It has been bullt along three sides of a hol- | low square, each side-about 200 feet in length, with the fourth left open | to the sunlight, Building Well Planned. At two corners the new building has been connected with the older hospital buildings. The front of the new section, with its Golumned en- trance, has been attached to the Steele wing of the hospital. The new building is five stories high. Because if was necessary to fit it with the older architecture, the upper story does not appear from without. Long before plans for the buildings were drawn, a thorough study was made of modern medical schools by the university architects, Coolidge, Shepley, Bulfinch and Abbott. For several years the preclinical schools in the medical department had been scattered about the university grounds. They have been coordinated with each other and the services. of the ~ hospital. After much study a scheme was agreed upon, one .that has many advantages over what is to be found in other schools of med- | icine. | In almost the center of the med- | ical group are located the laboratories | for clinical diagnosis, connecting with | the wards and private rooms of the | hospital on one side and with the} laboratories and classrooms for teach- a ing on the other. Here are individual rooms for heart and lung testing, Blood chemistry, serology, bacteri- | ology and surgical pathology. A staff | cs ts ests ses Charlottesville Tuesday.

At the height of the “average man” publicity Gray said he had always believed in ‘scratching the ticket occasionally.” and that although he was a Republican he sometimes voted otherwise. However, at the election last fall, he voted for Herbert Hoover. “I voted for Hoover because he was my choice of the twe. presidential candidates,” he says, “and not because he was a Republican or that I had anything against Smith. In fact, I am a great admirer of Smith personally, because of the fact that he has risen to the high position that he occupies from an humble beginning. , “Yes, Walter Johnson is still my fa- vorite baseball player. Although he is what many of you writers choose to call a ‘has-been,’ he is still my candi- date for the greatest ‘baseball player.’ “Lindbergh, too, is still my choice of the greatest American alive. I thought him the greatest American two years ago, and his life since that time has strengthened that opinion. He is still my ideal of.an American youth.» And he does things! He is a splendid ex- ample to set before young America.” Mr. Gray was then asked if he thought Lindbergh took too many chances or disregarded danger too often. “I think not. In the little study I have made of aviation, I do not think there is as great a risk in flying as in traveling on the railroads or by auto- mobile, according to the great dis- tance that is covered, and it is Lind- bergh’s great courage and ability to go places in a hurry in spite of weather or public opinion that causes me to think him the greatest living Ameri- can.”” Average Views on Average Questions. The average man knows just about as much about athletics as qgny aver- age man one might meet onc street He does not know the batting Q@verage of every major league baseball player nor does he have any theory concern- ing football plays or the doing away with passed ball from a called strike, and he can explain to his wife when a football team fails to score after a touchdown. Although Mr. Gray evades the ques- tion with a sly smile, it is said. by his friends that on Sundays, he still pot- ters around the house in his slippers, tinkering with the radio or reading the papers. One of the reasons for selecting Mr. Gray as tne average man, was the fact that although he was a member ef a church, he did not attend services regularly. He still qualifies along these lines, say intimates. It has been intimated that Mr. Gray would be spoiled or become “swellheaded” over the publicity he was given. A few minutes in the averags man’s company soon dispels this idea. “No, I’m not tired of being the av- 'erage man, neither am I tired of hear- ing about it. There’s never a day |that I do not hear at least one refer- jence to it,” he says. He was then asked if thé publicity | had either hurt or injured him locally. “Well, I am sure that it helped my 'business. And a lot of people speak 'to me now where two years ago I could walk to work without meeting more than two or three persons With whom I was personally acquainted.” Mr. Gray has refused to accept nominations for office to lodges or to become a candidate for a city of- fice, for he feels that they were of- fered because he has been named the average man. Mr. Gray still lives in the same house. However, he did purchase a new car this year...When he first became known as the average man, his car was three years old. and he drove it two years longer. The new automobile is in the same price range as the previous one. A Bit Better Than Average Husband. His wife two years ago in an inter- view, stated that she felt that he was above the average “as a husband.” She still insists that this is true. “He is awfully thoughtful, and the children’ think he is wonderful. As a husband he is above the average,” she aserts after two years. With the high divorce rate that is so prevalent, it was suggested to Mr. |Gray that to maintain his position e might consider this phase. “Not a chance,” -he said with em- phasis. “Am I tired of being the average man?” He pondered this question a moment. “No. If, Knowing what would follow, I had to do it over again, I would not refuse if I could. It has been a great experience. “Being the average man. has had its drawbacks,” asserts Gray. “There were hundreds of people to shake hands with me. There were hun- dreds of letters from all Over the world asking for everything from autographs to money and old clothes. but mot so many of them. Mrs. Gray and I were discusing it just the other night and she said there were more ‘begging’ letters before. They come from in- valids and old people and we con- cluded that probably they were from hospitals and different institutions and that perhaps they had only just ‘read the magazines which were do- /nated to them, containing the story |of the average man.” Asked for his opinion of the single “Two things come to my mind. One 'is the fact that my experience has given me a broader view of life I soon learned that In Praise of the Press, “Where any orie else’ in Fort Mad- (ison might be arrested and fined for |/ breaking some minor traffic ordi- nance or for intoxication. they would draw only a line or two in the local paper about it, while if it were I, it would be in many papers, due to the | fact that there was so much publicity about me as the average man. Not because of anything I ever did,” he added modestly; “No -one-knows.-bet- ter than I that it was just luck that | I was selected as the average man. _ .” “The other big impression the dis- tinction has brought home to me is the inside fact about American news- papers. “Two years ago, I believed, as do millions of others, that newspapers -for a story. I know better now. Edi- tors and reporters have. been more than fair to me. Reportefs have gone out of their way to get some slight fact correct in their stories. I have been given the opportunity to ‘read published. “I have ‘learned that newspaper men often work under great handi- 'simplified by away from the | copy’ on interviews before they were | ‘to the cooking of Mrs. Gray, and ‘there are just a few; more gray hairs ij above his temples. . nvestigating. comimttees now func- i i tioning in Washington. | Particularly appealing to Luella is the case Of the young Connecticut | tariff expert who came down to the sleepy old town on the banks of the Potomac and made good. “It says here that this fellow, rep- resenting the manufacturing interests of the Nutmeg State, got into the secret sessions of the Senate,” re- marked Luella, glancing over the top of the newspaper. “I wonder what they'll be doing next?” ‘ * . . * not of such an inquisitive turn of mind. Always she wants to know what's going to happen—even before it occurs. “I suppose,” she supposed, “they'll find. a lobbyist one of these nights under President Hoover’s bed, in the White House.” “Now, what on earth would a lobby- ist want under the President’s bed?” I asked. “You. never can tell,” answered Luella. “Some men talk in their Sleep. Perhaps President Hoover is one of these dream orators.” “Suppose they do! Suppose he is! What of it?” “A lobbyist under his bed,” she avowed, “would certainly have a great advantage, knowing what the Presi- dent is thinking about 1% * *. « GS Snot of I wish Luella were thoughts. “If I were a lobbyist,” I. told her, “I wouldn’t bother trying to get L UELLA conjures up the strangest I'd do would be to work my way sec- retly into his Cabinet———” Luella gave me what is commonly known as the horse laugh. “That just goes to show how much a man knows about furniture,” she roared. “What Mmades you think’ the President has a cabinet in. his bedroom. He probably hes a plain, old-fashioned highboy. I see where Mrs. Coolidge ‘says the White House furnishings ere mostly junk, anyway. Even if there was a cabinet, and you got in it, "twould probably fall to pieces. Then where'd you be? ss ¢ ®# - ERE it not that I'd like to see just how far she can go, I'd lose patience with Luella. “I was referring, my dear, to the President’s Cabinet—the board of di- rectors, s0 to speak, that meets with him every so often to take up the af- fairs of state——” : “The affairs of what State?” asked Luella, “Connecticut? The Senate investigating committee is doing that. Before they get through they'll at- tend to all the affairs of all the other States, too. Imagine! These manu- facturers had their secretary on the Government pay roll, Think of it!” “You think of it,” I parried, filling the family fountain pen. “I’ve got to make out some checks,” “If you were wise,” ske snapped, “vou’d take a course in lobbying. Then you could really make out some checks instead of just making out they're checks. There is a difference, you know.” Come to think of it, Luella’s right. How Women Can Make Money CONTINUED FROM PAGE 17. ward to Saturday morning for their nature walks and talks. A bit of psychological advice: Don’t call your journeys and excursions into the country “study” or “classes.” The children probably have been in school all week; they have had about all the study and classes they want. And so that is why I suggest “nature talks.” ; Mrs. Edith B. De Coster lived on a farm near Buckfield, Me. Her hus- band fell ill, and she found that she must add to the family income. She had been devoting all her strength to her house and to the farm work, and now she must earn more. But how? She went over and over in her mind the possible things she might do, but none seemed practical. Mother Did Not Know. One day she was sitting on the porch snapping beans, when her little daughter came in from the garden, where she had been playing, with a caterpillar clinging to a celery plant. “Mama, what kind of a worm is this?’’ the little girl asked. Mrs. De Coster did not know, and as she sat t} re snapping the beans she felt ashamed that she did not know. That evening, when she was free, she got down a nature book and, going through the colored plates, found one that showed a caterpillar like the one her daughter had brought in. She began to read up on it, and the next day she was able to tell her daughter the story of how the little ugly worm on the celery plant some day scon would build itself a tiny silken swing, would fall asleep, and then awake to find itself a beautiful butterfly. The little girl wanted to know more; she brought in her friends to hear the stury. Every day they saw butterflies, but they didn’t know the beautiful story of how they came into the world. She began to read more, to send for »ookKs and then began to conduct -nature walks. She was now thoroughly interested and began to breed butterflies, moths and cocoons to show the children. One day she received a letter from a nat- uralists' -upply house in New York ordering 2,000 cocoons at 5 cents each. She put her daughters and all the neighborhood children to collecting cocoons—what &@ strange welter they turned in! Among them were a few rare specimens which she sold at a higher price. That was 25 years ago. In that time Mrs. De Coster has educated her three daughters and helped to keep things going on the farm while her husband was ill. Last winter she went to Cali- fornia on her vacation. She now sells moths, butterflies and cocoons to supply houses. The usual price for a cocoon is 15 cents, but sometimes for a rare specimen she will get $10. And so, as I say, oaks from acrons grow. (Copyright, 1929.) MRS. JOHN COOLIDGE TELLS HOW HUSBAND ASSISTS HER CONTINUED FROM PAGE 17. but there will be one as soon as Mrs. Coolidge has a chance to base her fig- ures on actual expenses. That a brand of Trumbull economy has. been joined with the famous Coolidge kind, however, is apparent from the fact that the table of the newlyweds is supplied with groceries and meats bought at a chain store which boasts low prices. “I like housekeeping,” asserted Mrs. Coolidge, “but I am surely glad this apartment is mot larger. It keeps me busy all day. As for cook- ing, I attempt only the simplest dishes, which pleases John because he doesn’t like so-called fancy food. “Getting breakfast is the most fun, because it is easy, the results are most satisfactory and coffee is one thing I’m sure of. I haven't any favorite recipe as yet, but when I do find one I'll probably wear it out using it so often.”’ she smiled. “I’ve already found out one handl- cap in cooking for only two people; food lasts so long. If I cooked a roast or baked a cake on Monday we'd be eating it all week. I think it must be easier to plan meals for a large family.” Last week, in addition to the regu- lar housework, a daily shopping ex- pedition and four trips a day to John's office, Mrs. Coolidge was busy unpacking , trunks, arranging her apartment and answering scores of letters. Already the apartment has what New Englanders like “to call-a “homey atmosphere,” although the curtains havé not arrived and the pictures are not hung. The color :scheme of the living room, which is richly and tastefully furnished, is rose and blue. A luxu- rious oriental, rug covers the floor. Against one wall is a large Gov. Win- throp desk; facing it is a davenport upholstered in soft shades of brown, while in a corner a comfortable arm- chair and a gateleg table make an at- tractive group. Completing the fur- 'nishings are a cabinet radio receiver, 'odd chairs. lamps and chairs and a sideboard. . The kitchen is a model of efficiency and no doubt inspired Mrs Coolidge to say that housekeeping has been so modern conveniences ‘caps to get materia! for their papers and they are usually pressed for time. | I never knew before how much work there was about printing sever@ dif- ferent editions -of. a newspaper every ‘day within a few hours. porters, who, while being hurried for their_copy, took the time to call me to ascertain something pertaining to their story, will have my everlasting regard because through, my contact with newspaper men during the two years of publicity as the average man I have realized that they are usually working -under pressure and have to satisfy so many different people, in- cluding the parties they are writing about, their employers and the great mass of readers.” The average man has not as yet fallen for any of the manufacturers’ offers of money for attaching his sig- nature to some testimonial for an article that he has never used. Neither has he gone on the Stage, although several theater managers have gone so far as to make out con- tracts and “shove them under my nome,” as Mr. Gray expresses it. After two years the average man is little changed either outwardly or in- wardly. He has taken on a few pounds of weight, which he attributes 4 Those re-> that any young woman with common sense shc-'d succeed in being a homemaker without elaborate pre- vious training. The Coolidge kitchen is a cheerful room, with its white and blue breakfast set, its electric refrig- erator and white gas stove. Although Mr. and Mrs. Coolidge assert that they are not going to en- tertain much this winter, a small room off. the living room was pointed out as the guest room, and it is fur- nished with a day bed, comfortable chairs, small tables and lamps. Tne four-room apartment, even though it is one of the Elm City’s at- tractive residential sections, and the rooms, as rooms in apartments go, are large, is a considerable change from her father’s spacious mension in Plainwille, where Mrs. Coolidge has lived until now. But the wife of the son of a former President of the United States likes her new home:«very much, she is proud of it and she thinks that keep- ing it attractive will be fun and work enough to keep her very busy.

With the international line running directly through many buildings along the -border, the immigration. officers are often confronted with unusual sit- uations. Recently during the intri- cate rulings of the Department of Labor a border immigration official asked for instructions in handling the case of the woman whose kitchen was cut in two by the invisible boundary line, so that every time she walked to her ice box to get a chop she went into Canada and when she came back to her stove to cook it, she returned to the United States. Recalls Lamora Case. Under a strict application of the ruling making it imperative for every person to report when entering this country it would have been nécessary for the Government. to detail] an im- migration inspector to sit In this kitchen perennially to» examine the woman at each entry. But even Gov- ernment red tape balked when this woman swung a wicked broom.

Plante’s home is his castle, but it is an empty castle until his case is decided. Nothing lke it has so stir- red the border since the case of Oliver Lamora and William G. Rockefeller rocked the Nation 25 years ago. In that case, which attracted met- ropolitan correspondents from all over the Nation, it was an ignorant woods- man pitted against a milltenaire who had purchased the land all around him. Lamora’s determined fight until he died to keep his land won the ad- miration of the Nation. Plante'’s case against the’Government may yet be- come as well known. Seeming Indifference Gives Way to . Aggressive Drive for Votes. CONTEST IN ALBEMARLE Special to The Washington Post. Harrisonburg, Va., Oct. 19,—With Rockingham Republicans opening up With an intense drive for votes dur- ing the past week, predictions are fre- ly being made that Dr. William Mose- ley Brown, coalition candidate for governor, will carry the county over Dr. John Garland Pollard, the Demo- cratic nominee, and that the two G. O. P. candidates for the House of Delegates have good chances of elec- tion. While Rockingham is normally Re- publican, indications early in the campaign: were that the G. O. P. leaders, being unenthusiastic over the fusion movement, would make no particular effort to get out the normal vote which last fall rolled up a 2,= 400 majority for Herbert Hoover, There were indications, too. that many of the rank-and-file of the Re- publicans, opposed to the Anti-Smith line-up, would remain away from the polls. This all seems changed now, with prospects for a normal Republican vote, which will be cast for the two legislative .candidates, if not for Dr. Brown. ag Normal Vote Expected. Republican leaders have no ex- pectation of getting out the record vote of last November, but they antie cipate a normal vote. Reports are that the G. O. P. leaders are concen- trating their drive to ¢‘ect Dr. J. M. Henry, Bridgewater College instruce tor, to the House of Delegates. His running mate, Dr. B. B. Bowers, Tim- berville veterinarian, is figured to take enough votes away from the Demo- cratic candidates to insure the elece tion of Dr. Henry if not that of hime- self. With the Republican activity ap- parently bringing results, some Dea- ocratic leaders admit that there &- slight hope of Dr. John Gariand Pol- lard carrying Rockingharin, poincing Out that the norma! Republican yote is too large to overcome. Some Deme- ocratic leaders will feel their work has been well done if they hold the G. O. P. majority to 250 votes. These leaders are banking on the pevsonal popularity of their two legislative candidates, and Former Delegate Jacob R. Bren nemann, to break party lines and pull through to victory. Garber Head of Campaign. Representative J. A. Garber, former county treasuer, who was elected to Congress in the Hoover landslide of last November, is herding the came Paign in Rockingham. He and the Republican candidates for the House of Delegates are filling nightly speak- ing engagements, and are pepping up precinct rallies as well. The G. O. P, campaigners are laying special em- phasis on the short ballot, high school tuition and the claim that Rockingham County has not received its just share of State highways. Prohibition and Raskobism also is brought into play, but\the campaign- ing so far has been on State issues. According to reports, Rockingham is the only Shenandoah Valley county in which the Republicans are making a genuine effort to elect Dr. Brown. The Shenandoah County leaders are not conducting any opera campaign, although the county is normally Re- publican. Some of those leaders have been quoted as favoring Dr. Pollard for governor, feeling that the Repub- licans lost ground by joining with the anti-Smith Democrats. Page County Republicans are mak- ing a campaign and have hopes of carrying their county, which also is Republican. Contest in Albemarle. Reports from across the Blue Ridge State that Albemarle G. O. P. lead- efs are waging ashard fight to cut down the normal Democratic major- ity in that Piedmont county, which is included in the Seventh Congres- sional District The anti-Smith Democratic element is held as having little influence in the Seventh District, the fight being waged almost entirely by the Repub- licans. E. C. Wine, of Harrisonburg, Rockingham anti-Smith chairman, however, is active, but there have been no indications as to the strength of his following. The anti-Smith ele- ment is active in Augusta County and has one or two legislative candidates in the field. While the Republicans are seen as having a good chance to pile up a sizeable vote for Dr. Brown in the Seventh District, observers see in their efforts this year the plan to keep alive their organization in order to return Representative Garber to Congress two years hence. With the district normally Democratic, the Republican leaders realize that they must retain every one of their foliowers-from ast. November to retain the congressional seat. While the district polled a ma- jority of several thousand for Herbert Hoover last November, Garber’s mar- gin over former Representative T. W. Harrison was less than 500 votes. Autos Kill Seven In Richmond Area Increase in Deaths Shown by U. S. Department’s Annual Report. Richmond, Va.,: Oct. 19 (A.P.).— Seven deaths occurred in the Rich- mond area from automobile accidents in the four weeks ending October 5, 1929, Department of Commerce fig- ures released here today show. Only three of the seven deaths, however, were due to accidents occurring in the city limits. ‘The Ceaths from accidents occur- ring within Richmond for the 52 weeks ending October 5, 1929, was 16 per 100,000, compared with 15 per 100,000 fer the 52 weeks ending October 6, 1928. The Richmond in- crease reflects the national death rate increase of from 18.9 ver 100,000 for the year ending October 6, 1928, to 20.7 per 100,000 for the year end- ing October 5, 1929. National figures issued by the de- partment show that 752 deaths from auto accidents were reported by 78 large cities during the four weeks closing October 5, 1929, contrasted with 624 deaths from the same cause ll four weeks ending October 6, 1928. : Fall River, New Bedford and Springfie'd, Mass., Waterbury, Conn., Albany, N.

Assuming that France and Italy can reach a preliminary understanding that will pave the way for the proposed naval conference in London in January, the American delegation will then have before it the task of matching. wits with the shrewdest and. best-informed naval experts in the world. Ostensibly all the delegations will work for genu- fb bn ine and equitable naval limitation, if id pull * ot reduction, but in reality each dele- i gation will try to overreach the other, Fame and the results of former conferences ted to give warning that the Americans will eo fi: be fooled if they are not vigilantly on bd the guard. po tes Before the Washington conference ing up was called the British government oe scrapped itsold battleships and created | high a situation in which it was entitled to 1 that . " conten build two new battleships, greatly su- aries perior to anything possessed or planned a by the United States. The. United aes States scrapped new battleships and re- naking tained old ones, thus making a still Ligon» greater disparity in actual fighting effi- Me eee ciency. 's have British naval experts had discovered Aerts that airplane carri¢rs were most effec- z with ‘. tive when not too large, but the Ameri- 4 mak cans did not possess this information. Consequently, when the proposal was made to limit the total tonnage of air- plane carriers to. 135,000 tons, the also is —— Americans made the mistake of build- wef ing two huge carriers which absorbed which nearly one-half of the total allowable Had 3 tonnage, while the British experts — brought about the construction of many being more carriers, each capable of carrying nbube, as many. airplanes as the oversized a Saratoga and Lexington. The big rength American carriers are very speedy, and ty and can keep up with a fleet, but the British didates navy is provided with many more car- riers of satisfactory speed. The factor of air force in connection with naval limitation will become very important return at the London conference, but apparent- seetrich ly it is not the intention of the United — States Government to send any special- we jest iststo..deal..with_this..question..._ The = wee American plan, apparently, is to place ierbert reliance upon diplomats and politicians in making an agreement providing for the security of the United States coasts and the Panama Canal against air raids facilitated by swift airplane carriers. At the Washington conference the negotiations were so directed as to per- mit Great Britain to build a huge naval base at Singapore, while denying the right of the United States to fortify the Philippine Islands or Guam. The Amer- -.iecans agreed to abandon the fortifica-. tion of. these outlying possessions, but they did not ask the British delegates to agree to abandon the fortification of Bermuda or Jamaica. Bermuda is an ideal outpost from which to conduct air bombing raids against the Ameri- ‘can coast, and Jamaica occupies a simi- lar advantageous position for an air attack upon the Panama Canal. At the London conference the American dele- gation should request, in the new mil- lennial spirit of brotherly love, the abandonment of Bermuda and Jamaica "as naval bases, so that the restored confidence of the two great English- speaking nations shall not be disturbed by a potentially deadly menace. All large and swift merchant steam- _ ers are easily transformed into airplane garriers as well as commerce destroy- _.ers. Great Britain has at least 50 of, Ss mar- ae Ss. 1, : > Ne thens vessels to America’s 15. This great disparity must be taken into ac- count: in efforts to establish parity of naval strength. No doubt the Ameri- can statesmen will try to acquire the | technical information necessary to en- able them to look after America’s inter- ests at the conference. What the American people desire is a navy equal to any other in the world. They are told to be patient and wait until 1936. Many of them would pre- fer to see equality emerge from the London conference in 1930. FROM BAD TO WORSE. By adding the debenture feature to the tariff bill the Senate coalition has reached the climax of folly. The tariff bill as it now stands amended by the Senate is a grotesque and shapeless thing, which, like other monstrosities, should be speedily- strangled for the sake of preserving the dignity of human nature. Possibly the tariff bill will be passed by. the Senate and sent to conference. In that event the House will either com- pel the Senate to recede from some of its foolish amendments or the bill will die in conference. It is inconceivable that a bill containing the Senate’s amendments will ever be sent to the President. Senator Borah must. have had the House conferees in mind when he predicted that a bill would be passed which the President could sign. He knew, of course, that a bill containing the debenture swindle would never be signed by Mr. Hoover. Yet Mr. Borah voted for the debenture amendment, exactly as if he seriously believed it would become law. The Senate is about ready to take up tariff rates. What the coalition may do to these rates is horrible to contem- plate. The only hope remaining is that the coalition will fall apart when sena- tors are subjected to the individual and sectional appetite for tariff spoils. These coalition senators are human, notwithstanding what they have done to the bill thus far. Theyhave indus- trial as well as farm constituencies, and possibly the eternal hope of reelec- tion will induce them to protect their States’ interests to some extent. The fact has been disclosed that an industrial lobbyist was wormed into the Senate finance committee in the guise of a Senate clerk. That was an offense which richly deserves the public rebuke it is receiving. Now, if Senator Cara- way’s lobby committee will kindly hurry along and look into the workings of the farm lobby and other lobbies interested in the tariff, perhaps it will be discover- ed that everybody, on all sides, is scrambling for tariff loot. The grilling of one senator has revealed much. Why not put all senators on the gridiron? What the Caraway committee needs is a people’s counsel, with power to compel the committee to. make investi- gations in behalf of the common people. The Senate has provided such a sleuth to serve the consumer in Tariff Com- mission inquiries. The lobby commit- tee ought to have equal regard for the ultimate consumer. a people’s counsel, with power to sub- pena and interrogate all senators. OHIO RIVER SYSTEM. Ceremonies marking the completion of the Ohio River improvement project are under way. They were begun on Friday, in Pittsburgh, with five mem- bers of the Cabinet in attendance. A fleet of river boats began a pilgrimage yesterday from Pittsburgh to Cairo. On Tuesday and Wednesday President Hoover will deliver addresses in Cin- cinnati and Louisville. Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Louisville and the other cities situated on the banks of the Ohio were located by their found- ers because of the fine transportation facilities afforded by the river: But when steamboat navigation began, 118 years ago, it was immediately apparent that the channel that had served satis- factorily for barges would need im- provement. In 1835 it was first pro- posed that this work be undertaken, but the great era of railway expansion materialized and interest in waterway transportation flagged. The Govern- ment began piecemeal construction of dams along the Ohio in 1885, and it was not until 1910 that Congress authorized the comprehensive program that has just been brought to a conclusion. In the canalization and locking of the Ohio $125,000,000 has been expended, and now there is available for year-round transportation a uniform 9-foot channel from Pittsburgh to Cairo. : Improvement of the Ohio has bee reflected in the steadily increasing. vol- | It should appoint | ume of traffic. ‘In 1917, 4,600,000 tons of freight were carried on the broad bosom of the river; by 1925 the volume had increased to 15,737,000 tons and by 1928, to 20,938,000 tons, or more than twice the volume cleared through the Panama Canal. The aggregate values of last year’s cargoes amounted to $750,000,000. Factors making pos- sible this great increase, in addition to the improved channel, were the growing realization that certain kinds of goods can be transported more economically by water, and the fact that speedier and more economical barges and boats have been put into service. The Ohio flows through the great in- dustrial heart of the Nation, emptying into the Mississippi which, in turn, drains the great golden grain area of the NortSwest. The system, vielwed as a’whole, will furnish cheap transporta- tion for coal, iron and steel, wheat and corn and bulky manufactured commodi- ties, carrying them cheaply and swiftly to the ocean at New Orleans. At the latter. port, coffee, sugar, raw rubber and other imported materials will be picked up for distribution on the return trip. Utilizatiom of this great inland waterway will be reflected in lowered costs in all industries. The railways will thrive as a result. Already they are operating at near capacity. Water- ways and railways will develop in com- plete harmony and will function side by side as parts of the comprehensive transportation system that the growing Nation demands. SUGAR OVERPRODUCTION. While Congress is concerning itself with the tariff rate on sugar the Cuban government is attempting to ease the situation by reducing production’ of sugar cane. Under direction of Eugenio Molinet, secretary of agriculture, an extensive campaign is being conducted to educate farmers in modern methods of diversified farming. The Cuban gov- ernment regards the present situation as critical and is determined to relieve the island from dependence~—upon...a, single crop. For 150 years sugar production has been the chief industry in Cuba. Taxes have been levied against producers whose crops exceed fixed amounts, and the total output has been limited by law, but the country has failed to diversify its products. By the introduc- tion of modern methods of cultivation, tractors in place of oxen and drills in- stead of hand sowing, the agricultural department hopes to be able to make other crops profitable. The wisdom of this campaign is obvious. The same lesson should be taught in Porto Rico and other United States possessions which are becoming slaves to the sugar industry. The export fruit industry of Porto Rico shows but small gains in recent years. Exportation of coffee and cigars has decreased, but* the sugar industry has grown at a phenomenal rate. Thirty years ago the island produced 35,000 tons of sugar, and last year 749,000 tons. Diversified farming in these islands would improve the status of their own people and ease the sugar situation in the United States. By excessive pro- duction these islands, not to mention the Philippines and Hawaii, demoralize their own markets. Most of the markets outside of the United -States-have-been closed to them, and there is slight chance of conditions improving until they turn to other crops. The United States will continue to demand large quantities of sugar from them, but that area which is now contributing the surplus could be profitably put to grow- ing fruits and vegetables. EXTRADITE RUM SMUGGLERS. The activity of the prohibition en- forcement authorities in running down rum rings in New Jersey is heartily applauded by all law-abiding Americans. By concentrating its efforts upon the suppression of, organized rum smuggling the Prohibition Enforcement Bureau wins the support of a great portion of the public which had become disgusted with the snooping and hip-slapping tactics previously employed. If pro- hibition is to become effective it will not be by the capture of pint flasks by dry agents disguised as merry revelers. The law is violated and defied by powerful ‘gangs well organized and engaged in importing immense quantities of genu- ine liquor. If these gangs are not detected and suppressed the Treasury Department. may as well acknowledge defeat in its effort to stop smuggling. One of the clearing houses of the ELEPHANT 15 To BLAME FOR ALL THE DELAY! wit ; A } ¥, NW rf yy The Helping (?) Hands. ‘siand“permits <liquor-laden vessels to clear without designating the port of destination. Liquor is delivered at |Miquelon from Canada, Newfoundland, England and France, and is loaded there in fast motorboats and vessels of the Shawnee type, which can deliver the goods almost anywhere along the Amer- ican coast. The Shawnee is a notorious rum runner and it is a pity that she was not captured or sunk during the raid last week. The crime of liquor smuggling is not an extraditable of- fense under the Anglo-American treaty for the suppression of liquor smuggling, but it should be made extraditable. Surely the Canadian government can not wish to shield criminals who are habitually violating American law. All the extradition treaties should be re- vised to include rum smugglers so that, when once the United States is upon their track, they shall not be enabled to find refuge in any civilized country in the world. ELECTRIC POWER. Scientists have predicted for many years that electricity will some day do a major portion of the work of the world, but. the public has only a scant notion of how rapidly their statements are proving true. A report by the De- partment of Commerce shows the ‘annual consumption of~electricity—for household use in the United States to be 10,000,000,000 kilowatt hours. “At least 20,000,000. homes are served by electricity, and only a very small per- centage of the people to whom it is available fail to make use of it. Domestic consumers formerly used most of the electricity available, but with develop- ment of the electrical motor for in- dustrial. purposes the situation has rapidly changed. Industry now con- sumes nearly 100,000,000,000 kilowatt hours annually at a cost. of nearly $2,000,000,000. The phenomenal development of elec- trical power can readily be seen from the growth of investments in the power industry. In 1902-these investments totaled $500,000,000. In the following ten years the- increase was to $2,000.- 000,000, and since then it has been doubling and redoubling until the figure stands at more than $8,500,000,000. The possibilities for further extension are considered limitless, depending only upon the cost of electrical power. Where the present cost of current is from 8 to 10 cents per kilowatt hour, it is assumed that engineers will be able to reduce this cost, perhaps as low:as one-half cent. When that day comes America will be truly electrified. Extension of electrical power to the ‘rum rings is Miquelon. This French é ad farm is one of the big projects of the | near future. Science-has already dem- onstrated that electrical currents can be used to advantage in the soil below crops and in the air above them, in addition to furnishing ultra-violet light. This development awaits reduction of electricity costs, but there are scientists who already vision the farmer taking three crops instead of one with the aid of electrical currents. Other innumerable devices are being invented to make further use of elec- tric power. Photoelectric cells are being used in the grading of some crops and numerous manufactured articles. Elec- trical devices for cooking .and cooling foods are extensively used, and it is conceded that within a short time homes will be heated in winter and cooled in summer by the same electrical ap- paratus. The value of ultra-violet rays in preservation of health and cure of disease is well known. Scientists pre- dict that the future home will be equipped with devices giving off health- ful rays all the time. Still a further prediction is that within a few years wireless and heatless lighting will be provided. Plans for development in che field of communication are almost too innumerable to comprehend. Who can say what will have been achieved in this field by 1950? MAN AND MACHINE. The mechanism of industry has cen- tered attention of investigators in this field on the relation of fatigue and boredom on the individual worker’s pro- ductivity. Use of machinery has re- lieved men of much hard work, but it has added to the monotony of their tasks to such an extent that there has been continual pressure for higher wages and fewer hours. There has been a disposition in many quarters, however, to question the economy of shortening hours for men who exert little physical energy. A report of the British Industrial Fa- tigue Research Board is enlightening on this subject. brought out that boredom is frequently present among the workers in continu- | ous manual operations of a repetitive type, and that it may result in weaken- ing of the stimulus to work. Contribut- ing causes of boredom were found to be repression of intruding thoughts and desires while working, the enforced ef- fort to maintain an attitude of work, and active dislike for the task. The most monotonous type of work was found to be that which requires some. but not all, of the attention, which pre- vents freedom of thought and yet does not fully occupy the mind. . The investigators concluded that The British investigation | |Dr. Wiley in the cause of health. workers can usually adapt-themselves - to monotonous machine operation by. constant repetitiorf until the task be- comes practicaily automatic. The most important part of the report deais with the effect of such work on the employe. “Repetitive work,” the report says, “is considered to have a dulling effect on the mentality, so that desires and in- terests which may have been fairly numerous and intense at first become weakened by the routine and the op- erative begins to live along the lines of least resistance.” Adaptation to this kind of work, the investigators cone cluded, is probably not achieved “with out some personal sacrifice and cost.” - This effect of mechanized production has been realized to some extent in this country, but its affirmation by a com- mittee of experts gives it new. weight. Demands for the five-day week and shorter working hours, which are rapide ly gaining ground in America, appear to be justified from this standpoint, Machinery has greatly increased pro- duction, but that gain would be incon- sequential if it meant a sacrifice in the mentality of workmen. The solution ‘is to provide. ample diversion for the working man when he is not operating his machine, and to shorten his hours to a point where his life will not be- ‘come a routine drudgery. As the effect | -of repetitive work becomes more gen= “_ erally understood, the movement to shorten daily and weekly working periods will no doubt gain impetus. The American workman is the most efficient and productive in the world because his hours are not long and his standard of living is high, but still further progress . in this direction may be expected. —_—— DR. HARVEY WILEY. Well-earned congratulations are pour ing in upon Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, initiator of the pure food law, on the occasion of his eighty-fifth birthday on Friday. President Hoover in his mes- sage refers to the Nation-wide appreci- ation of the many servicés rendered by During recent years, Dr. Wiley has continued his activities without the physical changes which usually indie cate advancing years. On one occasion, not so very long ago, Dr. Wiley was among the notables gathered at the Na- tional Press Club to witness the debut of a young woman palmist who was — reputed to be unfailing in her accurate prophecies.

Society’s Interest Centers on Sports As Autumn Wanes Football Calls Out Official Fans for Every Nearby Contest; President Hoover Is Spectator at World Series; Plans to Be Present at Celebration in Dear- born to Honor Mr. Edison. By JEAN ELIOT. T took. the “world serious’ to promote ] sports to the front pages of the newspapers just as the headlines on the British prime minister’s visit to the United States were fad- ing out of the picture. For some time football had been exerting its autumn pull, wih a grist of spectators from the Capital turning out for every big game within motoring dis- tance. And as soon as the contest between the Athletics and the Cubs was transferred to Philadelphia, Washingtonians began to discover sudden business in the Quaker City. President Hoover’s decision to attend what turned out to be the last game of the series was as surprising as it was unexpected. True, he had formally opened the first American League game in Washington last spring, in spite of a most unseasonably chill and rainy day. But he has never been much of a base- ball fan and all efforts to develop in him an interest in sports—save fishing and medicine ball—have proved fruitless. However; base- ball is admittedly the great American sport and the President apparently likes to show an interest in the things in which Americans are interested. At all events, he rearranged his engag:- ments and set forth for Philadelphia early Monday .morning, accompanied by Mrs. Hoover and several guests, returning to the White House the same night. And the ele- phant, emblem-of.the Athletics, proved as effective a mascot for the Philadelphia team: as for the G. O. P. As guests on this trip, the President and Mrs. Hoover had Attorney General and Mrs. Mitchell, congenial companions on many presidential expeditions; the Secretary of Agriculture, Mr. Hyde, and Mr. Claudius H. Huston, with Mr. Walter-Newton and Mr. Lawrence Richey, of the “White House secretariat;”’ Mrs. Richey and Commander Joel T..Boone. A highly distinguished official gallery saw Notre Dame send the Navy to defeat last Saturday in Baltimore, although Mrs. Hoover “turned up missing” after the officials had been warned by telephone to expect her and had made arrangements for her reception. Presumably wires were crossed somewhere, for it was a group from the President's staff who alighted when the White House car drew wp at the stadium, UNOE rte rag’ & UNOECRWOO Miss Alberta Perley daughter of Mr and Mrs Clarence ferly who will make her debut on Thanksgiving Day. Notre Dame’s victory brought to mind the very amusing yarn which went the rounds last fall, when this Catholic college trimmed the Army. At a celebration following the game, the story goes, the West Point coach confided to Knute Rockne, coach of Notre Dame, his disappointment at the outcome of the game, saying, ‘‘We certainly hoped to lick the tar out of you.” To which Mr. Rockne, inspired, perhaps, by the political propaganda then in the air, replied: ‘It wouldn’t have done you a bit of good. The Pope would have annulled the game.”’ « ” ~ o i fe spite of heroic efforts on the part of Representative Fred Britten, chairman of the naval affairs committee of the House, it looks as though there will be no Army-Navy game ‘this season. Mr. Britten called upon the President last week to offer the sugges- tion that West Point and Annapolis be per- suaded to meet on Soldiers Field in Chicago on December 6. But, although President Hoover is said to favor the resumption of this football classic, no official pronounce- ment has so far been made which might, in Mr. Britten’s opinion, lead the Army and Navy authorities to bury the hatchet. Mr. Britten may be acquitted of having an ax to grind in trying to bring this famous ? gridiron contest to Chicago, his home town. For, although he gained materially in popu- larity when he originally captured the game for Chicago, he claims that he lost out com- pletely with his friends and supporters inthe end because he could not supply them all with tickets. * = 7 7” L HIS evening the’ President and Mrs. Hoover will set out.upon their journey to Dearborn, Mich., to take part in the cele- bration commemorating the fiftieth anni? versary of Thomas -A. Edison’s invention of the incandescent lamp. From Dearborn they will go to Cincinnati for the dedication of the monument to mark the reopening of navigation on the Ohio and thence down the river by steamer to Louisville. Earlier this week ceremonies at Pittsburgh to celebrate the completion of the system of locks and dams on the Ohio took half the President’s Cabinet to the Pennsylvania city -——the Secretary of the Treasury, the Secre- tary of War, the Seeretary of the Navy, the Secretary of Commerce and the Secretary of Labor being among the speakers. ‘The Secretary of War, Mr. Good, is the only Cabinet member to be involved in both phases of this prolonged celebration.

The unprecedented success of the National Woman's Country Club, or- ganized during the summer and fall, does not mean necessarily that Wash- ington society women have turned athletic. Although the club is a country club in all that the term im- plies, with a golf course, tennis courts, stables, ewimming pools, croquet and archery, scores of the members do not go in for any of these sports. Croquet and archery are after thoughts of the board of governors who recog- nize the return to favor of these gentile and graceful arts. Lady Isabella Howard. who heads the list of governors of the club, does not indulge in any of the sports and amusements mentioned. Mrs. Adams, wife of the nautical Secretary of the Navy, is not only_a good sailor and keen for the sport, sailing frequently with the Secretary in his own boats, But she is an enthusastic and skilled swimmer. She is going to enjoy the secluded pool, which will be set in picturesque surroundings on one of the terraces in the lovely grounds of the clubhouse: The majority of the great membership already enrolled in the club are bridge players and dancers, and there is every facility for them to indulge their tastes. Mah Jongg appears to have gone on its way almost as suddenly as it burst into society in this country. Mrs. Robert Patterson Lamont, wife of the Secretary of Commerce; Mrs. Walter Tuckerman and Mrs. Henry Price Wright, members of the board, are all busy with debutante daugh- ters and will spend more time ar- ranging parties and chaperoning than doing any playing on their own ac- count this season. They will. have some debutante parties at the club- house later in the winter. Mrs. T. A. Scott Thropp, youngest member of the board of governors, loves all the sports scheduled at the club and is an adept in many of them. She is the only daughter of Dr. William Holland Wilmer, now of Baltimore. Her children will be among those who will enjoy the “kiddies pool,” which will be built near-the end of the main pool, just for children to wade and sail their toy boats. The main pool will be 75 feet by 35 feet and the kiddies’ pool will be probably half as large. Mrs. William Wolff Smith, Shakes- pearean authority, will open her win- ter series on discussions of “Books Talked About,” Thursday morning at 11:30 o'clock at the Willard, the event representing the first of twenty talks listed during the season which will close March 27. Two groups of ten talks each will attract students of literature to Mrs. Smith’s series. Among the subscribers are Mrs. John L. Cable, H. Bastedo, Mrs. Frank Briggs, Mrs. David H.

Her topic was “William Shakespeare, dramatist, poet, Englishman.” The address marks one of a series that Mrs. Smith will make at Northwestern Univer- sity and at the University of Chicago during the winter.

Le TR cg AS ~., ~ ' Classic Lines Are Followed ~ In New Gown Statuesque Figure Given By Uplifting the Waistline. — BD By VYLLA POE WILSON. HE ups and downs of fashion are writing a new order of things in the sartorial aspect of formal teas and afternoon receptions in a gracious note of elegance which has been added to these scenes. No longer do the dressing rooms and meeting places of the elite look like recreation halls of a girls’ seminary with short skirted, sleeveless women adding to the jeune fille effect. Glittering metal cloth and soft velvets and satins and brocades add to the dignity of this winter's clothes, for afternoon wear in particular. With the emphasis on the ensemble being renewed rather than lessened, the realization of a dressy occasion is apparent to even the most unobser- vant. hion’s Fads and rm Sareea WAS ‘ Fancies as Spon HINGTON POST: SUNDAY .

This elimination or the uplifting of the waistline gives to the wearer | of modern clothes a long limbed statuesque appearance which 1s sur- | prisingly classic in its suggestion and | most artistic of silhouette. It may be the classic tendency of | the new figures which has given such | sudden impetus to those who have | been sponsoring dresses of gleaming | white satin fashioned along the lines worn by Helen of Troy and women of her day.

No woman can go half way espousing the new mode. She in line or to eliminate it, lengthen her skirts and make over her boyish fig- ure into the feminine curves which predominate today. The: long, fluid lines of the new afternoon and evening dresses have ‘no place in a scheme of things which Places the waistline somewhere about the hips. “This feminine style also does not conform very well with the lathe-like figure. So a word to the wise in time: Do not get too thin. The flip of short skirts. has been replaced by swirling, billowy and long, uneven hemlines. To their surprise, even the women.who remember the long skirts of yore find that they must practice wearing the new skirts before they can walk, sit or dance comfortably in them, Im the first place, the gown which comes nearly to the ground must be lifted up at times if the immaculate hemline is to be preserved from dust and dirt of the fioor. There Is noth- ing so awkward as such & gown hud- died up in a bunch to keep it from the floor, but adding nothing of grace and dignity to the picture. In reviving the old styles the stage has not yet been reached of drawing one’s spirts tightly about the figure, as were these garments in the early years of the twentieth century. Rather the woman of today goes further back than that in the art of picking up her dress, daintily ‘taking it at each side between the thumb and one finger and picking it up in this fashion. Long on Streets, Maybe. So far, only the gowns for wear in the house or at formal balls and dinner parties or Sunday night sup- pers have length enough to necessi- tate holding them up. If the threat we hear occasionally that long—very long—skirts are to be worn on &treet materializes, then the holding up of the skirt problem will be one to recKon ‘with in this day when every woman is too busy to give anxious thought to her dress after she has donned it and inspected it as proper for the day or the occasion. | Just the skirt organized as came more and more popular, cults in protests to the hampering long skirts are springing up overnight. Women, who as a rule take no part in clothes controversies, as cults against short any style which will to the cost of an appropriate and good-looking wardrobe. The tendency to return to the emall waistline’ with floating drap- eries and skirt falling from it to the ground comes particularly under the ban of the ones who hold as their first sartorial slogan “comfort first.” But, as one modiste explains, the modern art of clothes designing does not, in any way, include the use of stays or corsets of the kind which will give the wearer an hour glass figure.

Most notable of al! this season js probably the Rodier jersey-tweed combination. This is a heavy tweed wceven in several colors, with an e2x- actly matching jersey woven of the same yarns. It is especially strikinz for sports ensembles, the jersey for the dress and the tweed for the coat. The harmonious ensemble which this creates must be seen to be fully ap- preciated. The weave of the tweed is diagonal and the combinations usu- ally involve three colors. This has already been adopted by Patou, Lelong and Premet. A similar effect is created by the use Of a new heavy jersey tweed, which has the appearance of a tweed but is woven On h jersey loom and has the characteristics of that mate- rial. It is made in all colors and has |a white knotted thread to break up | the surface. A lighter weight smooth | jersey is made to match. | The always lovely kasha fabrics are ‘shown in many new variations. | (Heaven knows how M.

Fumikasha, a silk and wool > shoulder-blade ornaments to be worn on the left side of the low deecolle- tage of the modern dress and high up near the shoulder blade. Sometimes these glittering ornaments of semi- precious stones are in the shape of flowers or a cluster of grapes or a tiny bird. \ One of the newest of the ornaments for the low-backed gown is the nar- row chain of brilliants of different col- or which attaches to the gown at the shoulder blades and is of great as- sistance in holding it in. place. The garlands of roses of the Victo- rian age are worn not in the front’ at all, but to outline the lowest point of the low-cut neckline in the. back. Sometimes these garlands are the only ornaments on an otherwise perfectly simple gown. For the classic costume there are all kinds of linked belts and chains for the waist. and knotted ropes of Chippendale Reproduced from a pe- riod about 1750.

A happy ovelty is cendrikasha, which has a knotted black thread woven through it to give the effect of cinders. Printed fabrics, with a broche de- sign added, are also effective. A nov- elty is the tuslikasha cushion, which is printed and. quilted. The metallikasha, with metallic threads woven among the soft woolen ones, shows many new designs and colors, and is especially effective for a Jumper to match an ensemble made of the same rvaterial without the metal, Angora Patterns. Certain kashas are given a charm- ing‘ effect by the use of a certain number of long-haired angora threads, which form blurry circles or stripes in the design. The extra heavy kasha for coats has been inf extensive demand by such houses as Bernard et Cie., Lanvin and Lenief, particularly in browns, blues and black. Anothér popular number is a kasha with very little pile, leav- ing the weave bare, which is much used by Bernard, Patou and Paquin. Duvetyne surfaces are showing a re- newed popularity for winter coat ma- terials. Nejelic, which has a silk pile, creating a frosty effect, is greatly fa- vored. The Drapelias. Another successful. group is the drapella, made in a wide variety of fancy patterns. Burraspor, a heary tweed with knotted thread, grows steadily in. favor. The Luxury Fabrics. At the House of Ducharne one finds a breath-taking array of. the luxuri- ous Silken fabrics in which this creator specializes. One finds this season, for instance, a.new chiffon velvet which does not crush and will wear like any other good material. Then there is the panne amadis, How to Make a Smart Hat!

The beautiful new hall, which will house in the future the igge meetings of the society, and where many. symphony concerts and other musical events of the forthcoming season will be held, will have its “shristening” in the presence of members of the Daughters of the American Revolution, of the men who compose the advisory board, and of its creators—the architect, Mr. John Russell Pope; his associates, and the members of the contracting firm. Formal invitations have not been is- sued, but all D. A: R. members are expected to attend. Constitution Hall will seat 4,000 persons, and was built by the D. A. R. at.a cost of $1,500,000—all of which was contributed within the society. It is on the block with Memorial Continental Hall, and opens on Eight- eenth street. C and D streets—the latter being a carriage entrance. The Right Rev. James E. Freeman, Bishop of Washington, will officiate and deliver ‘the consecration address. | The invocation will be by Mrs. Will- iam R. Painter, chaplain general. The Rev. Joseph R. Sizoo, of the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church, will give the benediction. Several prominent women organ- ists will contribute to the musical part of the program. Mrs. Thomas Kite, of Cincinnati, Ohio, will play the prelude; Mrs. James 8. Mont- gomery. several hymns and the post- fade, and Miss Dorothy Jeane Silver- steen, of Brevard, N. C., will play the “Largo,” from Dvorak's new world symphony. Mrs. Lowell Fletcher Hobart, presi- dent general, will preside. Mrs, Rhett Goode has charge of the program. The ceremonies will open with a processional of the State regents, each carrying her State flag. The vice presidents general, the honorary presi- dents general and the honorary vice presidents general wij! follow, and the. national officers and the advisory poard will escort the president gen- eral.

Gallery yesterday proves that the season in art has really started in Washington. It is aus- picious that this gallery has opened two weeks before it usually does, and 60 moves the “beginning of the art season up two paces. Perhaps it takes us a little time to swing into line after the lull of the summer:when we took our art diluted with the joys of vacation and roaming tiirough the fields or sauntering along’ strange bypaths in foreign land= The Phillips Memorial Gallery becoming more and more known in Europe and elsewhere as being one of the most important collections of modern art anywhere in private own- ership. The type of paintings and the very special skill with which they are hung gives the collection an added value. Always Mr. Phillips is adding to his collection and always he is rearranging it and giving us the opportunity to see the paintings in different groups and in different combinaticns. Treated in this man- mer the individual paintings assume new and interesting values. The same picture seen in a differ- ent light and in new surroundings shows delightfully unexpected possi- bilities and new charms. The ad- vantage of this is untold. One can become really acquainted with a painting and by repeatedly seeing it grow to understand and appreciate it. This repeated view of a painting be- comes more necessary when the ques- 1S | plicity tion of the value of some of the work of the contemporary artists arises, for it is only through frequently seeing a picture that its real worth can be judged. This has been true of all aspects of art in the past. The present exhibition at the Phil- lips: gallery is the most imposing yet seen here, and evokes great enthusi- asm. First and foremost, there are several new paintings, among them a splendid canvas by Manet, “Ballet Espagnol,” which has been placed in the lower gallery. This is an impor- tant acquisition and stands as a mark in the transition from Goya and the decorative influence of the Orieat through the impressionists to the moderns. This is an early canvas by ‘Manet, before he had become an lin- pressionist. A Spanish troop of dan- cers made a great hit«in Paris, somc- what as the Russian dancers took New York by storm some years ago. Manet asked them to pose for him, and this painting was the result. Masters of the Future | guitar-strumming members of | troupe on the shadowy edge of light Manet captured the soul of these Spanish dancers and interpreted them in terms of life. Zola pronounced Manet. “one of the old masters of the future,” and continued to sing his praises and to buy his paintings. The hanging of this picture in the first “one man show” the artist ever had increased the prestige of the artist. It was purchased by Durand-Ruel and had a place in his private apartment for many years and for this reason was known in auction sales and public galleries. “The painting is romantic and theatrical, deliberately so, the shad- Ows are opaque and there are start- ling contrasts... It has a quality of joyous nalivete and a startling sim- those who love directness and child- like gusto. It is @#& | ¥riendship Chapter, Tenleytown. ° . Friendship Chapter, O.

TL LLL LS LI LI NS Pp ’ ae = »New Silhouette Enhances the Charmsof Sophisticated Women @ Drapery, Lengthened Skirts, More Elaborate Hats, Molded Waistlines Make for Dignity and Elegance. 7 Ww (The Feshien ee WHERE are manv phrases in use today which are euphemisms. We carefully avoid any refer- ‘ence to obesity, for the. expression “stout” applied to clothes w@nt out of fashion a long time ago and now reference is tactfully made to lines which are “slenderizing.” “Flapper,” “teo, has gone out as a word to Gescribe young girls. ' But one phrase which endifres be- gause it it apt and truly descriptive qs the It is a phrase which connotes that serene wisdom which is supposed to come with the riper year, whether it is ap- plied to family and social problems or clothes. It implies dignity, poise and knowledge, and when it is used to catalogue certain types-of clothes tt suggests the silhouette, colors and fabrics which a wise and experienced @voman would choose. a Of late years the mature woman das not had much chance to ex- press her personality im her clothes ‘unless she could make seasonal trips to Paris where the couturiers study a woman's type, or. unless she could employ the best dressmakers to carry ut her own ideas. The very short skirts, especially. in evening clothes, mposed a real hardship on her if she had to rely on ready-made things. WNor.was there much to appeal to her good sense and. taste in the general atyle'trends of recent season. Hats, small brimmed felts pulled ver the brows, did nothing to dis- @inguish her from her daughters or Mieces. Nothing in the gamut of Zashions seemed particularly appro- priate for her. Of course, if she kept her figure, as most women do in these Mdays of healthful exercise and care- ful dieting, she had the satisfaction pl. knowing that she might be taken for her daughter's sister. “But that, after all, ts a negative @atistaction To look young is highly esirable. But in so doing, to ignore all the charms that the years may, ‘and should bring, to ignore the so- ‘phistication Which has come with ex- sperience. is to forego some of the greatest charms the mature woman May lay claim to. - Clothes have a strong psychological Affect and many women have found themselves trying to live up to their wardrobes. For this reason recent Styles have thrown the older woman the wrong track, however success- efully she has carried them off. NN “mature woman.” ‘ee. Co-erdineter$ Now she comes triumphantly into her own and can give full rein to her desire to express herself as com- pletely and eharmingly as she could in the days of the “womanly woman.” She can be ag feminine as she pleases without the necessity of going against the fashions, She can be her: age, whatever it is, and find herself at her best in her choice of clothes. She can biithely select all these boyish modes that conformed s0 tenaciously in the center of the fashion world, The greatest influence in favor of the mature woman styles is natu- rally the lengthened skirt anq the molded. silhouette. However young girls may hesitate to adopt the longer skirt fashions, the older woman will immediately recognize the boon offered to her. If it has been a strug- gle to hold her silhouette down to the very narrow lines demanded by the short, straightline frocks, she will be ‘quick to enlist the aid of longer skirts in giving her height and sug- gesting greater slenderness. With equal joy she may hail the soft draperies in afternoon and even- ing frocks which add dignity to her appearance and which, when rightly done, bring out the gracious lines of her figure. She may even take to her heart the new hats, not neces- sarily because they expose the fore- head, but because they too, are charmingly draped and because they signal a return to those days when a bit of trimming was permitted to stress the difference between men’s and- women’s hats. And above all, she may welcome this era of elegance in fabrics no less than in lines, for she, of all types of women and girls, is ‘best endowed to carry off the new dignity In clothes Worth, for a long time now, has veered steadily toward these mature fashions. The traditions of this house which once clothed queens and em- presses have kept alive, to some ex- tent, a faint hint of the dear dead days whem ladies were ladies. The Worth models, thei, with their prin- cess silhouettes and their sumptuous drapery, do not completely serer themselves from their past. Vionnet, who has proved herself especially adept in the manipulation of material, does beautiful things with satin and velvet to enhance the charms of the older woman. Lanvin, while preserving a rather narrow sil- houette, has added a flare not only to skirts but also circular flounces to Sleeves. Chanel adds deep cape col- lars, skirt ripples anq soft shirrings to some of her most successful models. and has } ogg SS eeae , ’ y's *"* ‘ ‘ ‘ APA + ou ofeg 2% @ * * eae ¢, ‘Se ’ O47 es cnitye ots ‘At Tor ™ ? » _* (Va ° eee ey o4*9 * . ‘ PRO . \ Os SY REAIIA acnees : 1 eo» Peiiye A | te, 0 vas SN ‘ 4 ‘ 7 re | Fore Oh, a Oe a eee a Of tee 04) pret eg ¢¢ ‘ ‘ AY te Or, Cee ae. { ¢ eas ae * 8 Aye y 4s s%) e’,2 oo) 7?

Black Flat Crepe. A frock which will make an in- stant appeal to the woman who must eonsider becomingness as well as chic, is designed by Claire Amy in black fiat crepe, with collar and shirred jabot of sheer cream colore® linen and lace. The moderate V neckline is the most becoming line to the woman of mature figure, and when it is still further softened as in this model, it is ideal. The New Silhouette. This frock still a perfect 36 by introducing a mod- ified princess silhouette which is de- cidedly slenderizing. The bodice is softly bloused, and a ‘wide tucked section confines the hips in trim lines—beneath which, of course, the perfect foundation gar- ment does its work of eliminating superfluous curves. While many hemlines show a ten- dency to dip and swoop, there are equally good models, with a straight around hem, which is more becom- ing to some women. This frock shows a longer skirt, even all the way around, but with a soft circular flafe | which gives lines of grace figure. Por wear with this frock, at bridge to the or luncheon, is suggested a most be- | coming version of an Agnes-wrap: | Ped turban, in vis-a-vis felt which uses both the dull and shiny side | the felt | two little tabs for its only ornament.

A once-popular fabric, of which we have not heard in many moons, re- appears in a coin-dotted frock of brown which has many points of in- terest to the woman who must con- sider her figure and her complexion.

As a matter of fact, I was blind | as a bat to what really was going-on. My timorous implications, to | | the should have been fiat and | to the effect situation, that havé dones justice to stentorian declarations the talkies were the cat’s and nothing else would have a look-in, let a year and a half roll py. | Sincé that time these columns have with comparable timidity ad- | VYanecéd the wholly untenable theory that color and wide-angle | ‘photography and projection before long will supplant the présent | blaék and white picture of restricted dimensions and bring a new ‘burdén of expense to the shoulders of the exhibitor at the same time | that they provide a new quality of entertainment for his pairons. It | seems that I have erred on the side of conservatism again. A cursory survey of the more flamboyant of the headlines in the | latest issues. of the trade press aporita mé that within a yéar the black and white feature pictutes now the vogue will bé a& extinct as | the Dodo and such a thing asa silent film will be unheard Of. | I Wouldn't even give vou an argument about it! ' Since sound has demonstratéd its power to resuacitatée an industry that was dying on théré can he no doubt that the further refinémént of the screen by the introduction 6f néwiy perfected | mechanical devices and a further removal of thé binding limitatiotis that have hampered the fullnéss of the cinéma’s ability to expréss itséif Will bring to pass what now seem nothing more substantial than fantastic dreams. | its feet, + * oF * - failure of a more comprehénsive utilization of the color camera to manifést itself is dué less to any lack of é6nthusiasm on the part of the producers than to a lamentable déficiéncy in number of color cameras available for their usé. There are at the present time, I bélieve, no more than ten of these intricate and costly mechanisms at work and théy aré for thé greatér part controlled by the Brothers, whosé foresight in the essential matters of modern picture. making is nothing less than uneanny. the demand for the tinted tintypes is ro great and‘so insistent that steps have already been taken to see to it that 25 pieces of the color recording apparatus be completed forthwith, ‘with moré to follow as rapidly as théy can be built—which, as I understand it, at hest is a slow process. But the situation is more acute as it pértains to the wide- angle recording of events and their projection upon a screen aréa several tithes that now habitually in tse. This néwest devélopmént | in one of the basic activities of a frenzied and héctic industry has not | evén réachéd anything apprqaching commercial proportions. There is a conspicuous absence of réliablé data as to precisely how | many Widé-angle outfits are immediatély availablé to thé industty for | practical use, but the number is few. ‘Indeed, the only organization of which I am aware that has gone in for big pictures in a big way is that presided over by William Fox, who has issued a decree whereby all of his company’s’ productions | that raté@ the designation of ‘‘specials’’ must be filmed in both: the | | present standard width of celluloid and in “Grandeur Film” as well. | To accomplish this end, Fox has fn. use four “Grandeur” cameras, | -with six more nearing completion, thus swelling thé potential total battery to ten. .

Had the producers of ‘‘The Hollywood Revue” approached the film- ing of their glorified vaudeville. show with any imagination whatso- ever, its appeal might havé been immeasurably enhanced by the elimi- nation of all the curtain pulling that preceded and followed its every .act'and stamped it as a transplanted stage show instead of a distine- tive product of the cameras.

But it has cost a deal of money for _ the theaters of the land to cope with the mere addition of sound. ~ Contemplation of this new order-of-things,it-seems to me, is robbed of whatever sting it may originally have éntailed for the exhibitor by the consciousness on his part that the added expenditure will bring in proportionately increased receipts. This is a comforting thought to most of the boys, even when the increased returns only offs the increased outlay of original capital and the net profit remains the same.

MISS SWANSON REVEALS RARE VOCAL TALENT Gloria Swanson, whose new United Artists all-dialogue picture, “Thé Trespasser,” written and directed By Edmund Goulding, is the current at- traction at the Columbia Theatér, owes the beginning of her motion picture careef to an impulse. For without evér having considered ap- péaring 6n the scteen, she chanced to visit a studio one Gay, became intér- ested in the wotk immeédiately, ré- questéd an opportunity to appear béforé the cameras and 4 few days later was playing her first “bit.” Born in Chicago, Miss Swansén gainéd the first of her schooling thére, But was forced to contintte het education in such widely sépdrated placés as Florida and Porto Rico be- cause her father, an army transport officér, was subject to fréquent transfers from post to post. Her nativé histrionic ability as- serted itself when shé was very young, her first public appéarancé being at the age of seven, when shé sang in a benefit performance at Kéy West, Fla. Later, shé was the “lead- ing lady” in an operétta given by her school at San Juan. Returning to Chicago.to continué her schooling, shé was enrolled in the Art Institute. A short timé later, in the company of an aunt, she visited the old Essanay Studios in Chicago and it was there she é@xperiencéd the impulse which décided the course of her career. An opportunity to do moré sérious roles, to .which she aspired most earnestly, came to Miss Swanson in the form of an offer from Triangle, for whom ahe made a number of featurés. In 1926, Miss Swanson announced that shé would héncéeforth produce her own motion pictures through her own company, reléasing them through United Artists Corporation, of which she became a member. She has sincé made “The Love of Sunya™ and “Sadie Thompson,” and now her first one hundred per cent dialogue Offer- ing, “The Trespasser,” in which shé both speaks and sings. Thus, whilé the screén caused her to put aside her desire to sing 6n the concert stage and turn to acting instead, talking pictures now énable her to combine the two talents. The added attractions include the Hearst Metrotone News, the Colum- bia Orchestra, under the direction of ‘Claude Burrows, short subjects and a comedy. 2 Conrad Nagel.and Leila Hyams in “The Thirteenth Chair.” —Palace, ‘THIS. ONE IS REFERRED TO MR. JOHN HIX Will talkies make stethoscope obsoleté? This contingency seéms probable in light of experiments recently com- pleted in Hollywood. For a scene in a detective talking picture, “The Bishop Murder Case,” a “sound track" of woman's heart reating was needed. All sorts of stethoscopes ‘were at- ‘tached to the sound-reproducing equipment without effect. Finally the baré microphone itself, with no other equipment, was pressed against the woman's heart.

Thé result 18 a strik- ingly beautiful pictorial production, animated by the sounds of the quaint old city and the stirring dialogue of the fast-moving action. “The Girl From Havana,” played brilliantly by Lola Lané, is a detective who is sent from the Cuban capital by the Jewelers’ Detective Agency to Balboa to intércept a passenger linér Havana bound upon which a gang of jewel thieves have taken passage from Los Angeles.

It is not generally known, but when the professional playgoers are not sitting at the feet of-the drama they court the muses. Tonight the bright lights shine across the entrance way to two theaters, Poli’s and the Belasco. At the Avenue playhouse Howard Thurston, the magician, plans to set loose before a startled audience his idea of a mystery play. - He calls it ‘‘The Demon.” Over across the way from the White House, at the Belasco, Owen Davis sends his latest work of the theater, “‘Dread,” a play that sends the total list of this author’s work up near the 300 mark. Mr. Davis writes plays fast as they shuck oysters down on the wharf. , i + + * aa OMORROW night the National Theater lights up again with a fi Theater Guild production, one of the most interésting dramas of the day, “R. U, R.” initials which stand for “Rosum’s Universal Robots” and not, as some wag once put it, an imitation of an English- man at the telephone. What happens when man lets loose in the world forces stronger than himself has always been a favorite speculation with members of the literati. H. G. Wells took a turn at answering the question. So, too, Jules Verne, Shelley’s wife wrote ‘““Frenkenstein,’ which comes along in the same order. Karel Capek is the author of “R. U. R.,” the robots being imitations of human kind produced by machinery. They do the.work of the world cheaper than it can be done by! people. Once this was a fantastic idea. It has now become a fact, what with a Mr. Televox in existence. “RR. U. RR.” was originally produced at Prague. In its contents was the first real dramatization of the so-called Machine Age, said to be the era‘in: which we are living. Certainly it is not the Stone Age. The dream over, “R. U. R” now stands as a melodrama of realism. Naturally, the play can not be acted by animated machinery. The theater thrives on human emotion. Hence the need of actors and actresses. By their depiction of this work they show that the business men and scientists of modernity started all this whimsical activity by exploiting their robots in all the countries of the world. it happens that the lovely daughter of the president of Rosum’s—her sympathy awakened—pbecomes the lever to swing the robots into mastery over their makers. not even father. Children are no longer being born into the world. Robots, turned out by the millions, outnumber the human family a thousand to one. Then comes the revolt of the robots. It is interésting to note that the settings used for ‘‘R. U. R.,”’ de- signed by Lée Simonson, are a venture in the modernistic. resemble the new art of house furnishing and home decoration adopted by the modish of the moment, Thus the Theater Guild stands responsible for a fad. I the total number of plays runs into the hundreds. font of Mr. Davis’ playwriting ability is inexhaustible. he wrote his first play when a boy of 10. It was called ‘‘The Rival Detectives’ and by the end of the last act all the characters were murdered: No one knows just how many plays the man his written. Oldtimers in Washington will remember most of the early Davis plays as melodramas produced in the Academy of Music down on the corner of Ninth and D streets, now the Strand and closed. ‘‘China- town Charlie’ was one of that batch and afterward Mr. Davis had to deny the report that he lived on chop suey while .writing this play, though he is a stickler for mood. Chop suey probably hadn’t been invented at that time. It is, forsooth, an American dish unknown in * o ” * T happens that Howard Thurston’s play at Poli’s is his first.

SOUND EFFECTS-HELP COMEDY IN HAROLD LLOYD'S NEW FILM OCTUALLY astonished at the ex-, cellent comedy effects obtained | with the ald of sound and dia- | logue in “Welcome Danger,” Harold | enhances the comedy appeal over that | of the silent pictures. Mr. Lloyd made | this assertion after having conducted | Several experimentations concerning | the respective merits of the sound and dialogue picture with the silent! version of his new comedy. The comedian referred to one scene in particular, considered a high spo* in the silent version of “Welcome | Danger,” which met with a splendid | reaction when it was tested before a preview gathering. However, when the sound and dialogue version was | flashed on the screen, Lloyd states that this identical scene complereiy | excelled the comedy effects of the silent scene shown previously, because it had a zest entirely lacking in the silent picture. The same results ne! secured through refilming this scene | Was apparent in all the other se-/| quemces rephotogrtphed in soun.il. Consequently, Mr. Lloyd explains, he refilmed the entire picture in dia- logue; nevertheless the silent version | of the comedy will be released in 40) Or more foreign countries where there | is no sound equipment and in the smaller theaters in the United, Strtes which have not yet installed sound projection apparatus. “It seemed as though we were pro- ducing an entirely new story,” Lloyd SA AAR it SN A A REIS AEE ES FOO Sep ae ; es ~ 5 °F aa _— Oe ae a eee —o ag se Sail re oP S ee Se Baie ~~ Ba wi aS : . . . aia poe ‘ ' ball ost ; a ores of “ ii Fs t - cpa : | sound. said, “yet we actually made few changes in the plot from the stlent version. The great advantage accru- ing to us in the making of a silent version first is that, In sound and dialogue, we can retain.all the action of the old+line motion picture com- edy, but give it increased appeal through the addition of voice and The latter we are finding 4 tremendous asset to comedy business 'We have scenes in the silent version | that I look back at now, which were very funny to us, but after having contipleted the sound version of the same scenes, there is as much differ- ence as day and night.’”’ According to Lloyd, “‘Welcome Dan- ger,” which will be shown soon, will demonstrate sound effects entirely new to the screen. He triumphed over the objections of technicians that certain sounds could not be ob- tained because of the limitations of the microphone, In one instance the light valves of the recording instru- ments were shattered seventeen times | before perfect results were secured. Notwithstanding his enthusiasm for talking pictures, Lloyd states that 2° has not surrendered to the new art the fast action which always has been identified with his silent pictures3. His aim has beerr to retain speed and movement unhampered by the pres- ence of the microphones. And accord- ing to the indication of advance re- ports he has been successful in ac- complishing this. | SCREEN LIFE IN HOLLYWOOD By HUBBARD KEAVY. OLLYWOOD.—Marion Byron H was too small to get any farther than the chorus on the stage, but the movies are giving her @ chance for a career. ' Marion was first in the chorus when she was 13 —five years ago —and she stayed in the chorus as long as she was on the stage be- cause directors wouldn’t let her play parts on ac- count of her size. Height, unless there is too much of it, makes no m difference in the }@ movies. A short- °3 gtatured girl, if i she has the other necessary assets, need have no fear that her size will handi- cap her. The Marion Byron. camera will make her appear tall. Marion, in high-heeled shoes, :s only 4 feet 11 inches tall, hence her nickname, “Peanuts.” She went from the chorus to comedies, and her first big picture was opposite Buster Keaton in “Steamboat Bill.” Im more recent pictures, like “The Forward Pass” and West,” the casting director was good enough to team her with short men, so “Peanuts” looks like a bfg girl, except when she is in scenes with tall people. Numerology and Actors. It is generally assumed that ac- tors whose names do not “vibrate” to success change them at the sug- gestion of numerologists. But numerology has little to do with mame-changing in Hollywood. Tom Miranda. a scenario writer, to whom numerology is a serious hobby, says that actors, artists and musi- cians constitute only abows1 per cént Of those interested in the sci- ence of numbers. Directors and officials who see star material in actors bearing ordinary mames suggest short and easy-to- remember names for them. Tallor-Made Names. Frank Cooper became Garry Cooper because it is shorter and probably sounded more romantic. Gladys Smith was & common name, so it became Mary Pickford. Richard Van Mattemore was too long and it became Richard Ar- len. John Pringle liked Gilbert better. Bessie Love is easier to remember than Juanita Horton, and Lois Moran is simpler than Lois. Dowling. The list might be continued indefinitely. Numerology hasn’t much to do with ecreen names, says Miranda, press agents to the contrary notwithstand- ing. The majority interested in the science are persons who want to bet- ter their positions, but actors are not among them. High Barytone. Hearts that are flapping in expec | tancy of John Gilbert's first talking picture can get an earful in advance from Prof, W. R. Macdonald, of the University of Southern California. He made 4@ survey of the nature of voices and says that the public will hear Gilbert in a high barytone, somewhat similar to the voice of Otis Skinner, as heard for many years on the stage. Boatman. Huntley Gordon, screen leading man, was one of the crew of four to | win for Canada, in 1908, the Sea- wanaka Cup, which is awarded an- nually in an international contest for small boats.

Vivienne Segal’s nose was. the source of some worry to her, but she never had Mm . nerve enough to ‘a® have it rebuilt. She was a sing- er for Flo Zieg- feld, and when she told him she thought she'd have her nose made over, he advised her to ( save her money ; because noses F-; didn’t have any- { thing to do with show business. om Miss Segal came >} to Hollywood, as is the custom for New York stage stars, to sing in the talkies... She knew Ziegfeld’s advice didn’t include the movies when she saw some of the close-ups of “The Song of the West,” her first picture. Her nose was too wide at the base and it detracted from her beauty, but the picture was started and it was too late to do anything about her nose. After the picture was completed, Miss Segal says, the studio was no- ticeably silent about having her in any more pictures. So she ptfepared to go back to New York because when options aren’t taken up there is noth- ing left but to go home. Vivienne Segal. Nosed Her Way In. Miss Segal wanted very much to stay in Hollywood, and in desperation she went to a plastic surgeon and the following day she had part of the base of her nose cut away. On the afternoon ‘of the same day the head of the studio heard about Miss Segal's nasal improvement and he phoned her to know if she would like to make another picture. Miss Segal appears with her new model nose in her second picture, “Golden Dawn.” And she recently signed a contract to appear in more pictures for the |same company. This story might be called “Held but that sounds like a wisecrack, s0 we won't use it. Just Like That. When “The Captive” was running in New York, a producer is said to have asked his assistant if the play could be bought, and was told that it would never get by the censors be- cause “it Was all about libertines.” “We'll fix that.”” said the producer. “We'll cnange them to Americans.” The March Hair.

THE ARTISAN GOES IN FOR THESPIC ART The film technicians and directers’ lieutenants must be actors as well in these days of lavish sets, color pho- tography and talking films. Cameras are now everywhere, taking sets from every angle simultaneously, close-ups as, well as long shots. There is no room on the Sidelines for the “men behind the cameras,” so electri- cians, assistant directors, property men and others put on make-up in large crowd scenes and do their work right before the eyes of the many cameras—all unsuspected. In an ensemble scene of First Na- tional’s elaborate talkie, “No, No, Nanette,” twelve technicians were dressed in evening clothes, with their hammers and pliers hidden beneath the tails of full-dress coats. Five cameras filmed the scenes in color, and music, singing, dancing and talk- ing were recorded. Nearly 300 people were on the set. Three technicians were elaborately made up in the proper costumes for a much smaller and more difficult scene in “Loose Ankles,” a comedy featuring Douglas Fairbanks, jr., and Loretta Young. One of them was a Vitaphone man who was regulating a microphone and moving it about the stage with him while, to all appearances, doing a very good job of acting. Stage Veteran. Before achieving fame on _ the screen, William Powell, popular Para- mount featured player, was well known on the stage. He appeared in many dramatic productions on the New York stage and played for about four years in stock companies in Pittsburgh, Portland, Oreg.; Buf- falo, Northampton and /Boston, Mass. New Star.

Mrs. Niles, said to have been the first white woman to land on the shores of “Devil's Island” in French Gulana, set down her observations in a vol- ume that is the basis of Sidney Howard's screen play, “Condemned,” in which Samuel Goldwyn presents his star, Ronald Colman, supported by Ann Harding, Louis Wolheim and Dudley Digges. The author of “Condemned to Devil's Island” has returned to her New York home after a Hollywood sojourn as production adviser on the Colman picture. Every day Mrs. Niles reported at the Uni Artists Studio at 9 a. m., remaining there until 5.30 p.m. Her husband, Robert Niles, jr., had accompanied her to French Guiana and there he had taken nu- merous photographs; these William Cameron Menzies found valuable when it came time to design the sets. In the interpretation of the character of the protagonist, Ronaid Colman and Sidney Howard had the guidance of the Virginia woman who met the original of that character in an island prison full of expatriates. The romantic prisoner, who is por- trayed by Mr. Colman On the screen, actually lives today, in a cell on the prison Island. Mrs. Niles has re- cently received two letters from him. Mrs. Niles titled her book “The Biography of an Unknown Convict,” and she set down a background, a dominant mood, rather than the con- nected story of a drama involving a principal figure. . Michel, a young prisoner in the book, is brought for- ward by Sidney Howard into a close- up, developed, far beyond the indica- tions of character in the book, into the figure on whom interest is cen- tered. The other characters and the background, Mrs. Niles explains, have been shaded. The picture tells the love story of Michel, a young French thief, who escaped from the island, was tecaptured, ‘and is now back where he started from. The author changed his character only enough to save him from injury through publication of. the book. And Michel will not be telling the other prisoners that Ronald Colman is portraying him in his latest picture, for the prisoner would not wish so much revealed as would be known were he identified with the character of the book. “Condemned” has a background that is novel for a motion picture, and the dramatic importance of the overtone of the setting induced Samuel Goldwyn to invite Mrs. Niles to Hollywood, so that the most might be made of her personal observations, notes and photographers. The former wife of Beebe, Mrs. Niles has traveled extensively in French Guiana, Ecua- dor, Colombia and Haiti. She is a founder of the Society of Women Geographers and a Fellow of the At the time of her visit to French Guiana— made with the permission of French officials—Mrs. Niles spent several weeks in Cayenne, which is the home city of thousands of “libers,” ° pris- oners who have served their sen- tences but remain condemneg to ex- lle. The book on which the author now is working is, concerned with one of these men who is out of jail but also out of France.

EDWIN STANLEY MARIE HAYNES | “DREAD” is Sam H. Harris’ second production of the season. His first, “June Moon,” which opened at the Belasco recently, is the sensational hit of New York. Mr. Harris believes that “DREAD,” an entirely different type of play, will equal the enormous success of “June Moon.” If you missed seeing “June Moon” in Washington, you missed the biggest hit of the season. DON’T FAIL TO SEE “DREAD” BEFORE IT LEAVES WASHINGTON! It, too, goes direct from the Belasco to Broadway. This play introduces a novelty in dramatic construction as the audience is enabled to look at the unfolding of the drama through the eyes of the principal character and share with him the growing certainty of impending catastrophe. “Dread” is an exciting and swiftly paced study of a normal group of cultured persons placed in an unusual position of difficulty and danger.

OF INTEREST To RADIO ENTH USIASTS ¢ Tae CAREER CHECKERED Norman Sweetser Teacher of Architecture, Soldier and Actor. SON OF NOTED MINISTER Norman Sweetser, who, with Phil- lips Carlin, announces the Palmolive Hour over the coast-to-coast hookup of the N. B. C., has had a varied career which fits him for his present activitiés before the microphone. Born in Philadelphia in 1894, Sweetser is the son of one of the Quaker City’s most noted clergymen, the Rev. Edwin C. Sweetser. _ From his father, young Sweetser inherited the pleasing diction. which is familiar to those who listen in on the Palmolive Hour each week. While at the University of Pennsylvania he was @ member of the cast of the “Mask and Wig Club” and appeared in several of the college stage pro- ductions.. When the war broke out, Sweetser was’ commissioned a first lieutenant in the United States Air | Service, attached to the Italian army. He trained in Italy and served as a pilot in the Caproni bombing squad- ron on the Italian front, for which he was decorated with the Italian war At the close of the war he found himself instructor in architecture at the University of Pennsylvania, but the lure of the footlights proved too strong for him and he was soon sing- ing in concert and later on the stage. He was first with the Savoy Opera Company and later appeared in “Blossom Time” and.“May Flowers.” Three years ago Sweetser joined the National Broadcasting Co. staff and during the last 0 gees en cam- paign, was out with Hoovér, Curtis and Robinson and accompanied Gov. Smith over his ehtire route. Now he confines his activities to production direction of National Broadcasting Co. broadcasts and to special an- nouncing for the Palmolive, Pure Oil and other radio hours. The Silent Audience | Speaks \. Attention, Radio Dealers! To the Radio Editor of The Post— Sir: Well, where does one buy some of these radio sets you advertise? Believe it or not, this is a perfectly serious question. I have bought (and paid cash for) four radio’sets. And every time I have had a struggle. Some other radio fans and I fell to discussing our experiences, and what we wish to know is: en one sees a half-page adver- tisement for a new tadio, why. does not the paper print a list of places whete it can be heard, seen and bought? Sometimes the local dealer comes across with an adjacent adver- tisement which helps. More often he does not. Supposing we find a place that sells’ these radios?. Why does not that es- tablishment have them hooked up so one can give them a quick hearing and then send them out on trial (for a deposit) if the hearer is interested? You say they do? Oh, no. Most radio dealers have a tremendous ob- jection to letting you hear a radio in their stores. Try it. Some sets one may buy almost any- where, including drug stores, depart- ment stores and the Scandinavian. But two sets of particular interest to me recently have been advertising in Washington papers, and I challenge anybody short of two days’ search and research to find where they can be bought. Then again, why not some one in each dealer’s store who can answer in- telligent questions about radio? Within a month, in a search to hear and see a set widely advertised, 1 have encountered men who have tried to sell me other sets, but they did. not know the circuit, the kinds of tubes, the type of speaker or any other es- sential inside facts about the sets they were selling. I know of one man who sent to Philadelphia, another who sent to Chicago, for certain sets which are h advertised in Washington because he could not locate any dealer here who handled them. H. R. Praise for Lafoust. To the Radio Editor of The Post— Sir: The inclosed clipping from The Washington Post regarding the sug- gestion of Radio Commissioner Harold A. Lafount that listeners ought to have something to say regarding the kind of programs they get is of much interest to us here at the National Soldiers’ Home. We have about 2,000 listeners who are, as you know, crip- pled and disabled in every conceivable manner. They have to retire at 9:30 p.-m,, and most of them enjoy band music, quartet string, or quartet singing, and when we can connect with Norfolk, Va., or Newport News, Va., we seldom get anything like that before our men have to retire. They don’t care s0 much about this foreign musician's stuff, for we like our own music and our own people. a step made by Commissioner La- | fount in this line in order for us to. be allowed to make some suggestions as to what kind:-of music we can hear afl our disabled boys who have done their bit to make America what she is today. We would greatly appreciate it if we can get something along this line from 7 to $:30 p. m. from Norfolk, = Va., for our station here. I am the operator at the Home here and will be glad to communicate with any one regarding the programs. - Please address this to Commissioner Lafount, as I have not got his ad- dress. W. E. MAYFIELD.

CONCRETE example of Commissioner Starbuck’s apparent in- A difference to requests of the press was when a local radio dealer wrote to The Post complaining that stations in the District were tuned so broad that it was impossible for dealers demonstrating sets to separate them, with the result that prospective customers would refuse to buy the sets when really the radio stations were to blame. The assumption was if dealers were having this trouble, the listen- ing public must also be annoyed. In order to be sure that the matter came to the personal attention of Mr. Starbuck a Post repre- sentative made an appointment with him, but after cooling his héels in the commissioner’s office for a half an hour- was finally obliged to leave without seeing him. | There was no acknowledgment of receipt of the communication from Mr. Starbuck, and he was not heard from until about six weeks later when he sent word by another Post representative who hap- pened to be at the commission that “‘the joke was on The Post man who brought up the letter because commission engineers had looked into the matter and conditions complained of therein were not true.’’. Whereupon The Post man who had delivered the letter called Mr. Starbuck’s attention to the fact it was the dealer who had made the complaint, that he had no views of his own in the matter but was simply acting for an agent for the complainant and to try to get the Washington situation cleared up for the benefit of listeners in general. Incidentally The Post man asked Mr. Starbuck why, if an official investigation had been made, its results had not been reported sooner. Commissioner Starbuck replied that he had not known to whom to address it, to The Post or the «ealer. Evidently he hasn’t yet decided, for though that happened more than a month ago, still no reply has. been received and the conditions complained of are said to be as bad as ever. 2 a RE: Oo w IIOAE aA w= 3_Ew vue ~ Oda. > . . of s0c V tim * » . HERE was a-report a week or so ago that Herbert D. Brown, the Bureau of Efficiency chief, had been fed up with a lot of antipublicity propaganda and intended to recommend abolishing the commission’s press bureau altogether, but the thing which precipitated the issue was when an order was issued authorized by Commissioner Starbuck, it was later explained, without the knowledge of the other members of the commission, forbidding members of the press to talk to employes of the Radio Commission during office hours. This caused Martin Codel, one of the radio writers, to bucklé on his armor and call for a showdown. In this he was backed up by a colleague, Sol Taishoff (‘‘Robert Mack’’). The result was a meeting of the commission to which members of the press were invited. _ * * * * NDIGNATION was expressed that employes of the commission, I especially the engineers, should be told by a commissioner’s order that they could not so much as explain in layman’s language action of the commission a technical matter. Throughout the discussion which followed Carl H. Butman, secre- tary of the commission, who was not present, was made the goat, 80 to speak. Butman, a former newspaper man, although nominally a point of contact with the press, has been virtually muzzled since going with the commission. | Commissioner Starbuck had nothing to say as the question con- | tinually arose as to who was responsible for the order clamping down on news clarifying sources. “The thing that got me,” an official.of the commission said with some heat following the meeting, ‘‘was that Starbuck, who inspired the order to bar the newspaper men which Butman as secretary had to sign, sat there silently, allowing the brunt of it to fall on Butman.”’ Judge Eugene O. Sykes expressed accord with the plea of the| newspaper men for’ quicker aud more complete reports of actions taken by the commission at a meeting. But it was Commissioner Harold A. Lafount who came whole- heartedly out for the press with the statement that if he had ehis way the newspaper men would ‘get much more news than is now being given them and would have access to any sources of informa- tion in the commission offices. Chairman Robinson frequently cited the danger of commissioners expressing personal views on any radio issue. The judge revealed, however, that he has a desk full of writings on radio matters and personalities which he expects to release as soon as his days as radio commisioner are ended. NE of the most skillful radio noisemakers in the business is O Harry Swan, of Station WABC, in New York. Mr. Swan, who looks like he might be some relation to Joe Cook, the comedian, ‘spends a large portion of his time devising ways and means to | | imitate noises over the radio so that they will sound like the real | thing. It is a paradox that an automobile, for instance, does not sound like an automobile over the radio, therefore, in such a case it is the job of Mr. Swan to get busy. and produce a noise which sounds like an automobile. Sometimes these sounds are very difficult to reproduce and compli- | cated methods must be employed. On the other hand, they are ex- ceedingly simple. For instance, one of the most successful imitations that Mr. Swan makes is that ofan approaching railroad train. He does this without any mechanical device whatever by making the noise with his mouth. “IT sometimes lay awake all night,” said Mr. Swan, “trying to think up the right kind of a noise. I am at a disadvantage in never hearing what.goes out.over the air, yet instinctively I can tell whether or not 10: 11: 6: 10: 9: 9: 10: 11: EA * . * * Ve 10: 33 | | { P P a: 10: 11: 4 7 18: 10: | “S018 p.m 1 Rev. wommnen? 20 OOO = regrams in Eastern Baw an time.

Now police have to be called tc hold back the crowds that are turned away every Sunday, and tens of thousands tune in eagerly for the service be- tween 3:30 and 5 o'clock every Sun- day afternoon. There is no more colorful studio in the country than this Chinese haunt on a narrow, crooked thorough- fare called Doyers street.

One of the greatest parts of the pro- gram is a talk by either a man or a woman who has come back from the lowest scale of society through the aid of the mission. Stories of heart- breaking tragedy, incredible suffering, and soul stirring pathos are unfolded by these unlettered folk. The Mission has achieved such fame since the broadcasts started, ac- cording to Marion Gilliam, Director of Station WMCA, that almost any to it free of chargé.

Remuneration of Artists, “It is difficult to compare artists’ with the conductors’ remuneration, _ because there are so many of them /and so many different types.

So to change the subject we went to the Wu Sing Ding, Shanghai's |Willow Pattern Tea House. They, |guides and romancers, tell you that | this is the original of the tea house | pictured on the famous willow pat- ; tern porcelain. Of course, you have /seen the picture since you were a | . |child—the islamd with a pagoda, a | weeping willow and a crooked bridge On Chinese tea cups and dishes, also on shawls, lacquer boxes and fans. | “You see old-time willow pattern | tea house,” says our guide. “Before | time it was made in wood, jus® now | in stone.” Whereupon another dream | crashes to earth. This Shanghai tea | house isn't the original of the willow pattern, for the story of the wiliow | pattern plate is older than this tea | house, which is about three centuries old, and here in China may be seen many tea houses of this type. Also, /it has nothing of interest, but the view from its top of colored tiled roofs; its artificial lake is stagnant, dirty and smelly and its willow tree can’t compare with a lot up the creek I knew as a boy. Then we return to the hotel to _hear fellow travelers tell us of having seen the body of a bank clerk shot down’ in a street just off the Bund and to read of a woman robbed and shot in the French Concession and of the loot of diamonds and cash got in a pawnshop holdup by six ,; Chinese gunmen. They don't seem to mind things like that in Shanghai any more’ than in New York or Chicago. Shanghai, the Shanghai of the foreigners and | the wealthy Chinese, is saving its | worrying for bigger things than dead Chinks, especially for such a thing as occupation by an army of Chinese looters and grafters. Anyway, this possibility gives Shanghai an oppor- tunity to indulge in its favorite amusement — gambling, otherwise limited to cards, stocks, dice, rou- lette. mah jong, horse racing. grey- hound racing or what have you?

Landscape Beautifjcation Supplements Road Programs r Sponsored as a Nation-Wide Movement Project Calls for Wider Rights of Way; Planting of Trees and Shrubbery. By WILLIAM ULLMAN, Roadside veautification as a na- tionai task which will add to the joys sf motoring by rebeautifying the countryside is well under way. The Nation is turning artist to pay its debt ’ to Nature for destroying so much of her verdant beauty in order to join every section in a yast network of than 3,000,000 miles of roads. Through the initiative and interest of individual citizens, State highway departments, citizens’ organizations of various kinds and the Federal Gov- ernment, roadside beautification as a ational movement has gained an im- petus which will find the highways everywhere becoming far more attrac- tive from this time forward. The movement has developed into a Broad cooperative effort which has brought, together all these agencies for the purpose of revyivifying those areas skirting the highways which have become devoid of verdure, Briefly, the program that has been formulated calls for acquisition of wider rights of way to make certain future. development of the roadside; replacement of trees whose cutting mdown was the price of road building; ‘Yemovalofidead branches and trees and their ‘care by pruning and shap- ing; plantirig of new. trees and shrub- bery, and the deyglopment of scenic apots and parks, prote¢tion of road- side springs and reclaiming of j prehistoric ruins. Sod the Shoulders. Some States are making an ‘effort_to} grass and sod the shoulders of their highways, while others are planting trees, shrubs and vines on all foad- side slopes, and replacing those which ave been removed during construc- } tion work. A number: of. States are laying the legislative groundwork for the regulation of billboards and other advertising material heretofore an un- harmonioua blotch on the country- side. Beautitying of the iandscape is now Precognized as @ Nation may profitably set its hand. The keynote in the ~ country-wide campaign found expression in the address delivered by President Cool- idge during. the. latter -days. of his administration when, at the. ‘Mount ake Sanctuary and Singing ‘Tower, he said: “Our country is giving an increas- ing amount of attention to art. The | useful and the, practical is being sup- plemented by the-artistic and the beautiful. The material prosperity of our Nation will be of little avail un- ess it fs a into a spiritual prosperity: e need a deeper realiza- tion of the value and power of beauty. “Those who visit here can not es- task to which the‘ cape taking away with them an in- spiration for better things. A larger number of trees will spread verdant shade over highways and homes. Certainly we need to put more emphasis on tmprovements of such a nature.” The Federal. Government showed the way to the achievement of this goal of natural restoration when Con- gress during the last session recog- nived roadside tree planting as an im- portant phase of Federal-daid highway development. Speaking of this ac- tion of the national legislature. Thomas H. MatDonald, chiéft of the United States Bureau of Public Roads, said: “The amendment to the Federal highway legislation providing for par- ticipation in planting along {he road- side is a forward step and’one which will reosive the full and earnest sup- port of the bureau. The bureau pro- poses to assist with competent and expert advice all undertakings to im- prove and beautify. our roadsides. Othér bureaus of the Department of Agriculture, particularly the Forest Service and the Bureau of Piant In- dustry, also may bé_relied upon to give very valuable assitsance. Find Pleasure in Driving. “After a somewhat extensive inspec- tion of the highways of other coun- tries I am convinced that a very large part of the favorable comment they arouse, and the pleasure of driving over them, comes from the planting |: We can and care of the roadsides. not longer fail to make roadside pro- tection and beauty a truly national project,” States in all section of the country have recorded progress in this work of roadside beautification. Highway engineers are of the view that it isthe crowning feature. of the good-roads movement. From California comes the state- ment that this phase of highway de- velopment is constantly receiving more attention each year. It is stated that. the State has more than miles ‘of planted trees along the road- side. Oklahoma reports 2,000 trees planted along 40 miles of highway during 1927 and the same number in 1928. Delaware-~also has planted trees and shrubbery on a large por- tion of its arteries. An Arkansas State highway official declares: “We believe that systematically beautifying the roadsides along high- type roads would be a worth-while in- } vestment of public funds.’ From on Ohio official comes «the opMmion that such a project “should be-part of the program for every State highway department, especially the planting Of trees.” .

Not long ago a prominent munic- ipal official called upon the’ ‘indi- yidual who has made more motor cars than any other, for help in solving the problem of what to do with cars that were beyond further use. In doing. so, he pointed out that. the problem was growing more acute yearly.

Dead automobiles are not as dan- gerous as worn-out. razor blades. But they are getting to be much: more of ‘a problem than even the one pro- vided by decrepit shaving equipment.

Motorista this summer purchased gasoline which was slightly more vol- atile than that which they got from filling station .pumps a year ago, ac- cording to a survey madé by the United States Bureau of Mines. The survey was.conducted In Washington, New York, Boston, Pittsburgh, Chi- cago, New Orleans, St. Louis, Omaha, Denver,. San Francisco, Wrvro. and Bartlesville, Okla According to the bureau the tne | crease in volatility is shown by a gen- eral lowering of the average distilla- tion range of about 2 degrees Fahren- heit. As in the past, it is pointed out by the Bureau of Mines, there is a dis- tinct difference between summer and winter gasoline. That marketed this summer was less volatile than that sold during the winter. This differ- ence is shown to be large at the lower end of the distillation range, but prac- tically negligible at«the 50 per cent point and above.

The request ' because It. would have resulted creasing the landing speed of planes to approximately 60 miles an hour. That, they decided, was too fast a speed to set passengers back 'on earth again. Landing speed always is a limiting factor on high speed. It is worthy of note in this connection that perhaps Schneider cup race planes never took to the air all the time it was in England. It had too high a landing speed for any of the pilots to risk alighting on even the comparatively smooth waters of the Solent. In this case, the. com- promise was ignored. The ship, con- sequently, did not fly because condi- tions were not ideal. Countless other examples are avail- able of the designer's necessity for eggs to this or that limitation improved efficiency or perform- ce. Illustrated by Propeller. For example, a large propeller that turns slowly gives greater efficiency than a small one that revolves at high speed to do the same amount of work. “Why not have large pro- pellers, then?” the uninitiate may ask. : For one thing, there must be suf- ficient clearance between the pro- peller and the ground. If a large diameter propeller is used, the plane must have a higher landing gear. To many it would seem that this would The only car listing for less than 1000 which offers all these Important Features a A aah @ NH | neuverability. Airplane bronze-backed main bearings. be simple enough to design and con- struct. It would be, but the bulkier the landing gear the more resigtance it offers to the progress of the plane. Speed is reduced, more of the efi gine’s power is consumed in moving the plane, with a conseque reduction of the pay load if tan carry. Pay load, of course, is the thing that makes the profits. Therefore, in the propeller’s design the compromise makes itself felt. Remarkable stability can be given to- an airplane. As a matter of fact, in spite of the essential compromise, many of them have sufficient sta- bility to be flown “hands off” for long periods at a time in conditions that are not necessarily ideal. ‘Tits, at first glance, would seem ‘a distinct asset. The average man, anticipating his personal ownership of an aift- might be inclined to think? “That's the kind of a plane I want.” Later, he will think differently. Planes that are sO markedly sta are proportionately lacking in In event of citcum- stances that require immediate re- sponse to the controls, such as rad- ically uneven weather, maneuverabil- ity is the desirable characteristic. The too stable plane simply does not. have it. So the designer is called upon to find the happy medium between these two characteristics, each. .of which has its definite virtues under varying circumstances. Selects Thick Wing Sections. All airplane wings may 100k pretty much alike tothe average man,” but actually there are hundreds of dif- ferent wing types. One laboratory, for instance, has made reports on 600 different wing sections. ‘Thé: num- ber would seem to indicate, in itself, that in choosing the wings: for this eventual design the engineers may have to compromise in many direc- tions. If he desires lots of lift with. low landing speed he selects a thick nA section, with considerable camber, oF arc,eand one of considerable size.

Suppose you think that if your me was left unlubricated for six months, until all the grease nipples got clogged with dirt and all the bearings and bushings frozen with rust, the service station would be glad to have the laprication job at any price. ‘They just would. not think of charging you a nickle extra for the new grease nipples they had to in- stall. And, of course, they would not charge for the extra hours the me- chanic might have to spend forcing lubricant through ‘frozen’ parts. All I've got to say is that they would not be in business very long on such a basis, though I suppose a good many car owners, like yourself, might think otherwise.” “Granting that you are right for once,” I interposed, “the same thing ought to apply to all other aspects of car care.” “Right,” said the young man. “Take valves for example. Say they are out of adjustment or in need of grind- ing. Lots of valves are suffering from both troubles. “What does the car owner do? Well, he reasons it out that the only thing that could happen is happening in the form of a little valve noise. A lot of them even think the noise is compensated for by the additional power they get. “What is the result? Simply that the valve job, whichever it may be, is let ‘ride’ on for a while. It rides and rides. Finally, the loss of power be- comes so marked that the owner de- cides to do something about it. He goes to the shop, say, to have the valves ground and carbon cleaned. They take.the head off the motor and discover that, due to the carbon col- lection and poor adjustment, the ex- haust valves have been burned to death. New ones are necessary. They don't cost a lot, but the owner puts up a big howl. “Had he had the job done when it should have been, the next would have been a lot easier and less ex- pensive.” “You ought to be in the automo- bile business,” I remarked with real admiration. “Tam in the automobile business— the business of making my car give me the utmost in satisfaction.

FOR PUBLIC OWNER HIP The stand of the State highway departments regarding the. regulation of toll bridges on the State highway systems is set forth in a study of the whole question prepared by W. C. Markham, executive secretary of the American Association of State High- ways, Officials and appearing in American Highways, the official pub- lication of the association. The article makes the point first that at present Federal granting of franchises for toll bridges does not provide for supervision by any Fed- eral or State agency from the stand- point .of traffic requirements by which the suitability of location and adequacy of design and construction would be determined. It is pointed out, secondly, that each bridge should be built, owned and operated by the State or its po- litical subdivisions, and that the tolls should be applied to amortizing or reimbursing their cost, after . which tolls should be abolished. “In No case,’ the association de- clares, ‘“‘should the bridge be built, and operated as a private | toll bridge unless the State or its political subdivisions should not be in a position to finance the same.’ The laws of Congress authorizing franchises for toll bridges, it is stated, should provide the location, design, plans and specifications, con- tract, the actual codnstruction work, the regulation of traffic and the tolls to be charged. It is the association’s further contention that these stipu- lations should be subject to approval by the authorities of all States in- terested, or by a Federal agency should the States disagree. The fourth point in the organiza- tion’s statement of policy is that tolls collected should not exceed a sum that will provide for the actual neces- Sary operating and maintenance costs and yield a prescribed reasonable an- nual return on the actual cost of the bridge. Any amount in excess, it is contended, should be deposited in a special trust fund and made available by the State for the pur- chase of privately owned structures. ’ Of particular interest is the dis- tinction drawn between the Federal and “State responsibility. The asso- ciation avers that tfe responsibility is a State matter and advances the following view: “Sooner. or later all privately owned, will property of a. political subdivision thereof. It is only natural that those who are held responsible by’ the peo- ple for the proper construction, main- tenance and safeguarding of the pub- lic highways, should be _ actively interested in this matter. It is a State responsibility far greater than a Federal one.” This is a doctrine of State’s rights that in other ways has been recog- nized. Witness the institution of the United States system of highways. Al- though a project sponsored by the Federal Government, the supervision of the Government at Washington did not go much beyond seeing to it that the system was established in such a way that all sections of the country would benefit. The Federal consideration was one that insured uniformity and, to some extent, sat- isfactory distribution, but the task of alloting the highway numbers to State arteries was a State matter, and now is in the hands of the American Association of State Highway Offi- eials. In a like manner, Federal aid has only partially been a Federal matter. The concern at Washington is chiefly toll bridges, be State PAN-AMERICA ALIVE TO HIGHWAY NEEDS} Senator Oddie. Tells How Pian of Rio Congress Will Open Enormous Areas. STRIDES ALREADY MADE} “| “See the Americas first.” That will soon become the revised slogan of the motorist of the Western Hemisphere, according to Senator Tas- ker L. Oddie, of Nevada; member of the United States delegation to the Second Pan-American Congress of Highways; held last summer in Rio de Janeiro, who has just reported on the meeting to the Senate. As the resolutions and recommen- dations adopted by the congress are followed out and incorporated in na- tional highway programs of Latin- American countries, Senator Oddie said, facilities for motor travel will in- crease to the point where the scenic splendors and natural resources of all countries of the Americas will be ac- cessible to the international motorist. “Latin-American countries are to- day where the United States stood in the point of road construction prior to the Federal ald road act of 1916,” Sen- ator Oddie pointed out. “There is one important difference, however, and that is that the social and economic influences exerted by motor transpor- tation are much more clearly under- stood and the period of trial and er- ror through which the United States had to pass has been largely elimi- nated because of the great work of the engineers of the Federal and State governments. “Everywhere there is an urgent de- mand for more and better roads, but thus far there has been little legisla- tion: in Latin-American countries which would<consolidate the road pro- grhins, the -senator said. “The re- arkable results which have been ob- in seeing to it that certain general stipulations are fulfilled. The toll bridge question looms large legisla- tively. It has been the subject of agitation for a long time, and now the Federal and State Governments stand shoulder to shoulder in holding that wherever possible the bridges should be publicly owned, and that private ownership should be counten- anced only if public money is not forthcoming. By way of illustrating the magni- tude of the problem, the American Association of State Highway Officials has prepared a legislative compilation that shows there were 642 highway bridge bills introduced at the last Congress, of which 341 became law. Of this number, 65 are to be publicly owned toll bridges, 164 to be privately owned toll. bridges and 112 free bridges. It further appears that there were 51 bridge bills passed by the Seven- tieth Congress. These were simply extensions of time on franchises for private toll bridges already authorized, according to the association. The association charges that there were 34 bridge franchises granted by the Sixty-ninth and Seventieth Con- gresses to private capital, wherein there was no sale of franchises, bonds or any other visible means of showing that the bridges ever will be built. Some have obtained their franchises, it is stated, waiting for the States to build roads to them. According to the Btate Highway Of- ficials’ organization “there were vir- tualy no public safeguards included in the franchises granted to private cap- ital for toll bridges before the State highway departments entered protest. In fact, most of the bills were with- out any conditions whatsoever except those imposed by the general’ bridge law of March 23, 1906, which law is admitted by every one to be lament- ably deficient.” Up to $500.00 Stude.

It also recom- mends the establishmént of an au- thoritative and éfficient fource of in- formation on all matters pértaining to aviation in é@ach State through the appointment of a specia) officér or agency to accumulate data for the ‘information of all other States. Seventy-one of thé bills introduced im 1928-29 were aAiméd to régulaté or license aircraft Or pilots. Eighty-four general acts and 35 special atts intro- duced authorized thé establishmént, maintenance and regulation of air- ports, and 60 were of a miscellanedus character. Florida was the most activé on avia- tion legislation during the 1928-29 sessions of the State Legislatures, if- k troducing 29 bills, énacting 11 and . défeating only two.

Minnesota was quite active, with 17 bills introduced: New York and Con- necticut placed 14 before their Legis- latures; Pennsylvania ‘and Wisconsin, 13 each; Michigan and Illinois, 11 each; Tennessee and Iowa, 10 each. Bills not concerned with airports or the licensing of aircraft were of a widély divergent character, the report shows. Five States, California, New Jersey, New York, Wiscotisin and Iili- nois authorized temporary commis- sions to study aviation through joint resolutions. .

An attémpt has béen made to make aeronautical activity a subject of revenue in several States.

In Ohio, where a gé@soline tax af- fecting aviation was in force, a bill providing for a refund was vetoed after it passed the Legislature. Bills providing for the special énumera- tion of propetty employed in avia- tion as a bag@is for taxation were defeated in Arizona ani Pennsylvania and Tennessee had such a bill pend- ing. In California, airplanes were specifi- cally included in a quarantine regu- lation to prevent the introduction of agricultural pests into the State and are subject to inspection.

The field from 550 horse- power upward was left largely to the water-cooled engine. Power Is Stepped Up. Then, the discovery was made that the cylinders of an air-cooled engine could be set in two banks and still suffer no diminished éfficiency due to inadequate cooling. Accordingly, powér’ was stepped up above 625 hors¢power in this country and to more than 800 in one English éngine of this type. Beyond that the field still is left to the water-cooled en- giné.

Further, only through such a system can thé owner keep the chassis prop- erly lubricated at all times.

Theré are. three, five, six, seven, nine and twelve cylinder types A major- ity of these are single-row types, the exceptions being the six and twelve cylinder enginés put out by the same company.

This was pointed out by. W. E. | Bofing, well-known air line operator, in 4a recent address in which hé em- phasizéd thé growing néeéd for effec- tivé illumination of important points along the route. “In April of this year,”’ Mr. Boeing showed, “thé Department 6f Com- mérce virtually completed the light- ing of the transcontinental] air mail route between New York City and San Fraricisco, which, incidéntally, is the longest lighted airway in the world. “On this 2,700-mile span of plain 4nd mountein between the two sea- boards, are 16 airports that receive calls at night from the mail planes; also 111 emergency fields, which are lighted, and 282 24-inch revolving beacons and 629 blinker lights. Thus, the combination of regular and amphibians. It would seem from the number and variety that the Iimit had just about beén réached. Yet word comés from one of that hé is pérfecting an air-cooléd én- gine that will be an e¢ight-cylinder radial with the cylinders set {h two rows of four. Each form has its spe- cial virtues. One of thé most intéresting appear- ing engines extant is a flat type with the cylinders in crankshaft, désignéed for use within the plane’s wings. Gliding Picking Up. Expressions of surprise that Ameri- cans have not taken up gliding as a pastime are not lacking, é¢specially in the face of the country’s quick ac- septance of other forms of aircraft Operation. However, the situation is gradually changing. Glider clubs are making headway, if somewhat more emergency landing fields and lights gives the transcontinéntal night flier 887 individual lighted aids to air navigation. “The policy is to install lights so | that A flashing beacon will bé located every 10 miles or less, and because * visibility at elevations this virtually gives the flier an illuminating 4ystem that he ¢an see continuously, provid- the wéather is right. “The total estimated coat of light- ing the transcontinéntal route was approximatély $850,000, based on the pose of which is to guide night fliers present installation averaging about through the darkness, may. as a re- sult of a new device under test here, acquire a second useful function, that of indicating to the airman which way the wind is blowing.

The expense of light- ing emergency fields averages about $5,000, revolving beacdéns $2,000 each. and acetylene blinkers, which are often spotted at 3-mile_ intervals, $750 each.” DID YOU KNOW That one of the special stunts of British army fliers is picking up mes- Sages strung upon a String between rifle butts held by ground troops? That because one gets seasick Is not a certain sign that one will be a victim of airsickness? That one of the points most empha- sived in giving prospects a demonstra- tion of any airplane is the low landing slowly than in Germany. where the art has been pushed to its highest ex- pression.

Cards of Identification Required in License Bill Would Have to Be Carried in Pocket and Must State Full Name and Business Address of Real Estate Broker; Conditions Explained. By JOHN A, PETTY. Definite means of identifying and tracing those who undertake to en- gage in the real estate business is provided for in the pending :real estate brokers’ license law. Every individual licensed under the law will be furnished a pocket card for the p of identification. This card will not only state that the one pos- sessing it is duly licensed, but must also contain certain specific and esg- sential identifying information. In cases of individual brokers the pocket cards must state the full name and business address of the licensee. Individual members or officers of firms, partnerships, associations and corporations are to be furnished with cards showing their full names and the full name and address of the or- ganization with’ which they are asso- clated. Cards issued to salesmen will, in addition to the name of the Sales- man, include the name and address of his employe. Besides pocket cards, every licensee will be furnished with a license set- ting forth substantially the same in- Both the licensee and the pocket cards must bear the imprint of the seal of the real estate commission. Every license issued salesrnen will be delivered di- rect to the employing broker, who is personally responsible for its safe- keeping.. It is the duty of every licensee to display conspicuously his license in his place of business. New licenses will be issued upon change of location of business, but any change in location without for- mat notice to the commission will cancel the ligense theretofore issued to those involved in’ the change. | When a salesman leaves the employ of a broker, the broker is oMigated to deliver at once to the commission the license of said salesman for which he is personally responsible. . Also, it will be unlawful for such salesman to perform any further acts as a real esate salesman until he qualifies with this character another licensed broker and returns his former pocket card. Every real estate broker, in order to obtain a license, must maintain a Place of business and every real es- tate salesman before he can be licensed must be employed by or as- sociated with a licensed broker. These various restrictions and safe- guards, as well as the indorsements and formal information filed. with the application for licenses. and the data required by.a bonding company before it issues the required bond, form a rather comprehensive means of identifying and tracing both real estate brokers and real estate .sales- men. Many people undertake to pur- chase, sell, exchange and rent prop- erty who have but little appreciation of. the significance and importance of such transactions. It frequently happens that such persons unhesi- tatingly intrust their business of to utter strangers whose sole identification may be a so-called business card indicating them to be a real estate broker or 4% real estate salesman. Oftentimes’ cash payments are made and other vital authorities given to persons who were totally unknown and unheard of before and without even the knowledge that they have any busi- ness office or location. As may be expected under such circumstances these strangers some- times prove nondependable, incom- petent and even dishonest. When such cases arise the injured party has difficulty in identifying and trac- ing the one causing the trouble. Even if located and identified, very often the damages inflicted can not be rectified. The severe penalty provided in the proposed law would of itself deter in- dividuals from undertaking to act as a real estate broke or real estate salesman without a license. Failure on the part of an alleged broker or salesman to exhibit evidence proving him to be duly licensed would be sufficient guide to make one hesitate nnn nn = Detached ‘Price $8 950 4315 Ellicott Street Open for Inspection | Saturday and Sunday These d little: “different.” room wood trim on first floor and white tr cedar closets and bath feature this venience.

AGENTS The Parkway Motor Co., local Ford dealers, announce through their agents, Weaver Bros., Inc., the acqui- sition of the property at the south- west corner of Jefferson and M streets, Georgetown, for a three-story building to provide the -_nost up-to-date con- struction in garage and salesroom arrangement. Work on the new building, designed by David Stern, local architect, has been started. When completed the building will be equipped with a three-car wash stand, paint shop, body shop, specialized equipment for Ford repairs, as well as pneumatic in- stallations for oiling and greasing. In keeping with the most modern automobile service station equipment the genera] use of elevators has been eliminated by the use of the ramp system, which will greatly aid the prompt handling of all service work. Every square foot of floor space, from the basement to the roof, the latter to provide extra space for parking, has been planned and equipped to expedite service to a maximum degree of efficiency. Display rooms for new and used cars will be conveniently located in the new building. The expansion from the present space of 11,000 feet to the new struc- ture of 40,000 square feet marks a phenomenal development since the business was established five and a half years ago. before entering transaction. The specific provisions discussed herein; indicate very definitely the protection the public is offered in respect to identifying and tracing licensed brokers and salesmen with whom they may contact in transact- ing their real estate matters. icaenenddieneniieamainbenimeeenetetconcemetet ees ote into any business ‘by driving out Sixteenth street ex- LAST DAY TODAY FOR MODEL HOME Beautiful Autumnal Setting Marks Inspection in Rock Creek Hills.

a M. J. Luchs, Realtor, Outlines Growth of Idea, Giving Reasons for It. F STREET TRADE MOVES The growth of the chain store idea locally is described in an interesting manner by Morten J. Luchs, vice president of Shannon & Luchs, Inc.. who states that during the past year Washington has witnessed an ex- traordinary growth and Jevelopment of new stores, both local and chain, especially as they relate to women’s ready-to-wear and men’s clothing. The expansion has been. especially ifieant as a great many compa- in both fields have been consoll- ae. and merging, which haturally has had a tendency to slacken the ex- pansion or the opening of new units. As is usually the: case, a larger mumber of women’s ready-to-wear stores have opened than have the men's wear companies..: Women Greater Spenders. This is due to several conditions, among them being that women are larger spenders than men, and their |. clothing is by its very nature less du- rable, resulting in more purchases and a greater turn-over in volume for the store. Notwithstanding these conditions, @ number of men’s wear chains as well as local companies have also gone in for their share of expansion and ’ enlargement, especially those cater- a ing to the better grade of merchan- dise. “While this expansion is taking Place, it is interesting to note that most of the women’s and men’s s0- called 100 per cent locations have been absorbed and as a result newer locations are being created for these enterprising companies, which loca- tions have never before been consid- ered as scientifically picked for their respective businesses. Westward Movement Noted. It is the consensus among chain store spe { gee as well as representa- tives. of c ready-to-wear field that the growth of F street, Washington's most popular ready-to-wear thorough- fare, is rapidly moving westward to Fourteenth street, at which intersec- | tion the development starts north- ward on Fourteenth street as far as H street. There are several reasons for this movement and enlargement of area, the most important being the influ- ence resulting from the erection of. the new Julius Garfinckel Depart- ment Store Building at Fourteenth and F streets. A number of both men’s and wom- en’s apparel chains have already lo- cated in this newly developed sectior and from all reports indicate a vol- ume of business exceeding all expec- tations. Other Sections Growing. Other sections of Washington have likewise witnessed a decided growth. This has been particularly noticeable in the sub-centers or community sec- tions. Chains who have heretofore ignored these locations are now recog- nizing their many advantages. Still another growth in the ready- to-wear field that has become ‘very popular has-been the sub-leasing. of departments ‘In established stores. This has taken place both in men’s and women’s stores. For instance in the men's stores, women’s ready-to- wear departments have already opened, and are proving financially profitable. It is an established fact that a large percentage of clothing and haber- dashery is purchased either directly or indirectly by women. Men’s Stores Will Sell Women’s Wear. The advantages of opening a wom- en's ready-to-wear department in a men’s store immediately apparent and a large number of these chain ‘companies through their scientific management and volume buying and their specialized knowledge of the ready-to-wear business have been BUSINESS PROPERTY LEASES We Specialize in Finding the Right Location CONSULT MR.

If he exercises good judgment in the selection of tenants, he will save the owner and himself much later trouble and avoid future difficulties with tenants. I particularly: have in mind the inadvisability of renting property to a tenant who is finan- clally or otherwise unabie to meet the termg of the lease to be entered into.

Compare the services offered today with those of a few years ago. Today, service in apartment houses is equal to, and, in many cases, bet- ter than, that given in some of the best hotels a few years aco. Heating and Ventilation. “Modern heating equipment in our large buildings is an important fac- tor. Some buildings tuge fuel oil and others burn low-priced grades of coal by the use of automatic stokers. The knocking and pounding of steam radiators has been eliminated in these modern systems, and. uniform tem- peratures are now maintained by the use of thermostatic regulators. The use of artificial ventilation is found in large buildings. Modern theaters have indirect heating and cooling systems, with air purifiers and hu- midity regulators. These systems will undoubtedly be further developed | and*® used in future office buildings, | ; apartment buildings and even in bet- | ter grade homes. Some progress| § along these lines has been noted. There is a large field for improvement | in the modernization of our older bulldings.

Early American Home designed ke | Clevence | aa adien, pease, and built by William P. Lipscomb Company for the Estates. The Colonial Estate ‘Home for the Modern Estate Dweller The Early American type of home is delightfully adapted to country life. It was originally designed and built for that Upon its broad verandas and through its stately entrances Colonial society moved and enjoyed that free, com- fortable existence that people today reflect upon with envy. The above Early American home is an accurate replica of this charming homestead of yesterday. Its solid, sturdy con- struction and massive chimney suggests restful, sociable, eve- nings around broad, open fireplaces—while outside the moon- lit painted hills of Rock Creek Park Estates reflect the quiet grandeur of early Colonial landscape.

Adams, eee, board of adjustment. Boston. | petAfter four-,years' experience in yrratier the matter, I believe that our method is the best, namely, the building commissioner should be the executive officer ‘to enforce the zon- ing law, and that a board of appeal should be set up to .legalize minor alterations, while another board, such as the zoning: board of adjustment (corresponding to zoning commission, D, C.) should be in power to make - alterations.”—L, K.

It keeps the or- dinance from becoming a political plaything, and without it we feel that the ordinance would be a_ very weak and ineffectual instrument. Previous to the appointment of the present board of private citizens, we tried operating with a board com- posed of city officials, namely: The city engineer, fire chief, health com- missioner, chairman of the “board of assessors and the engineer of the city planning committee. This board did not operate with anything like the efficiency of the present board, due to several reasons: First, their duties in their official capacities necessitated absence from the board meetings, and secondly, as their of- ficial positions are appointive, it was impossible for them to operate with the same freedom as a board com- posed of private citizens.”"—Law J. Schwab, director of buildings. “It is my opinion that the whole force of the ordinance and the sole means of adapting an ordinance as limiting and restrictive as a zoning ordinance upon a city after that city has grown and developed to the ex- tent of Buffalo without such an or- dinance, is absolutely dependent upon some such body as a board of appeals, which is empowered to adjust the ordinance to fit existing conditions. We have found that the courts of the State of New York will not uphold a municipality in the enforcement of a city ordinance, such as a. zoning ordinance, where the constitutional property rights of a citizen are limit- ed arbitrarily; therefore, it is of para- mount. importance in this State at least, to have such a body functioning in a quasijudicial capacity, as a board of appeals, to interpret and vary the mt ; ' architecture, home qnvironment, C shops, and theaters— sive home development—paved tricity and sewers.

L. Ley, superin- tendent, bureau of building inspec- tion. St. Louis. “We have found such a board very desirable and there is no question but that it will be found advisable so far as Washington, D. C., is con- cernied:” '—E. E. Christopher, building commissioner. Syracuse, N. Y. “At the time of the adoption of our ordinance a board of appeals was rec- ommended, but in view of the fact that there was et that time a definite sentiment both in State and munici- pal govérnment to eliminate unneces- sary and supplementary commissions, it was deemed advisable to have the commission itself act in this capacity. Personally, I believe that while this system has worked quite satisfactorily up to the present time, it is not the proper way of administering zoning regulations. The board or commis- sion which prepares the zoning maps should be removed as far as possible from direct contact with aggrieved or speculative individuals. A properly constituted board of zoning: appeals would be in a far better position to give unbiased opinions, and I know that the legal status of such an or- ganization would have a far better standing in its decisions.’”’—C, é Howard, consultant, planning, parks and recreation commission.

FIAT MORTEAGE | “BES sO, 4 Rate Up .04 Per Cent in 1929, but Up .19 Per Cent on Commercial Loans. + & SECOND TRUST STANDS The aon rate of interest on first mortgages for the United States as a whole increased 0.04 cent. from July, 1928, to July, 1929, whereas the average rate on commercial loans in- creased 0.19 per cent,’ while the rate of interest on second mortgages for the United States as a whole re- mained stationary, according to a report received by the National As- sociation of Real Estate Boards from 85, éxecutive councilors of its mort- we and finance division. cilors in 139 cities were appoint- -@@ some months ago by the associa- tion’s mortgage and finance division to keep the association informed as to — conditions in various lo- cal ‘ties Ts “eoanelloes were selected on - recommendation of the presidents of local real estate boards as, in each case, outstanding mortgage special- ista of their communities. | The present report on interest rates for 1929 is the first summary to be ‘issued by the association from re- ports of its mortgage councilors. The summary in full, with detailed ‘tableS as to average rates of interest on first mortgages, second mortgages and commercial loans in the -United States and Canada, grouped accord- ing to geographical sections, has just been issued by the mortgage « and finance division as a special informa- tion service to its members. Interest Rates Compared. According to replies received from ‘the local executive councilors of the’ division, the average rates on com- mercial loans from 1928 to 1929 ad- vanced nearly one-fifth of 1 per cent and the avera,,> interest rate on first mortgages has increased only oné- twenty-fifth of 1 per cent. The face should not be overlooked, how- /@ever, that the bare interest rate on mortgages does not represent the actual cost of first and second mort-~ gage money because it does not in- clude commissions and discounts, the amounts and fluctuations of which. were not included in this inquiry. It is interesting to note in the re-/} rt that from July, 1928, to July, 929, the average rediscount rates for the twelve Federal Reserve Banks in the United States increased from 4.71 per cent to 5 per cent, or an av- erage. increase of 0.29 per cent,. and that during the same year the month- ly average interest rate for renewals on ¢all loans increased from 6.05 per cent in July, 1928, to 9.23 per cent in 1929, oF ncrease of 3.18 per cent. The rage Yat the average rate of interest dr“second mortgages has re- mained practically stationary is not aurprising, because the majority of the replies stated that the rate of in- terest charged on. second mortgages is the legal rate and consequently. there is little or no fluctuation in the actual rate of interest charged on second mortgages in most communi- ties. Changes in the cost of second mortgage’ money due to fluctuations in commissions and discounts are mot shown in the report, because ‘these were not included in the in- “quiries. Demand Slightly Less. Out of the 83 replies received, 30 tated. that the demand for mortgage “dnvestment securities is the same this “year as it was a year ‘ago; 29 replied that it was less and 24 repurted: a ‘greater demand. From the replies consived to the question on the demand for mort- ‘gage investment securities grouped. laccording to geographic sections of the United States and sizes of cities, ‘it is noted that the greater decline in the demand for mortgage investment -‘gecurities took place fm the larger ‘cities,,whereas the greater increase mm demand took place in smaller cities. Out of the nine answers received from ‘cities of 500,000 or more, six reported ‘a smaller demand. and only two re- ported a greater demand, whereas in :tities under 25,000, out of a total of. -236 replies, 8 reported a greater de- ‘Mand, whereas 5 reported less. The reason given most frequently as the cause of the decline in the de- mand for mortgage investment se- curities was the great volume of ac- tivity on the stock market. While the stock market with its large specu- lative opportunities for gains has at- tracted an enormous volume of specu- lative money which might otherwise have been available. for consumption expenditures, it is impossible to esti- . mate the extent to which this type of investment has made inroads upon the funds ordinarily available for more conservative longer term invest- ments in real estate, although the effect may be appreciable, Money Supply Greater. The fact that the average rate of interest on first mortgages during the past year has increased only one-fifth as much as the average interest rate on commercial loans, would appear ‘to indicate a relatively greater money supply available for first mortgage Investments than there was for com- mercial loans. The policy of insur- ance companies and other large inves- tors who either by law-or by prefer- encé choose real estate investments, creates an enormous fund of money ‘constantly seeking investment in real estate.

Undoubtedly this is the chief explanation for the failure of the. average interest rate on first mortgages to keep pace with the re- discount rates of the Federal Reserve Banks or the intereat rate on cail loans. Old Mosaic Floor Is Found in Spa Excavation in ‘ Germany Reveals Relic of the Roman Times. ‘Bad Kreuznach, Oct. 19 (A.P.).— One of the best: preserved Roman mosaic floors in existence was acci- dentally discovered here in the course of an excavation. Archeologists from many parts of the world have .come here to see it. It is 28 by 23 feet and is supposed to date from 250 A. D. Kreuznach, now one of the chief spas. of Germany, was known even to the Romans as an unusually health- ful spot. It then had the name of Cruciniacum, and wealthy Romans erected costly villas here. . The mosaic floor must have. be- longed to such a villa. It depicts dif- ferent ‘forms of stadium combats, varying from those between animals and between beast and man to those between slaves, such as Thracians and Teutons. Under this floor were found air shafts and heating arrangements, in- dicating that it was heated from be- low in cold weather.

‘FRITS DECREASED! Federal Reserve Unit Notes Fresh Recession for . Banks in Capital. NATURAL GAS DEVELOPS —— Ry THOMAS M. CAHILL, Debits to individual accounts in local banks again receded yesterday, the statement of the Federal Reserve Board recording the second decline in two weeks. The total of local debits for the week ended October 18 was $62,987,000, a cecrease of $1, 407,000 from the preceding week. Thig was not as great as the loss of the week ended October 9, from thé week prior which was $4,232,000. Debits of the week of October 2 regis- tered a gain, In the lock! Federal Reserve dis- trict they amounted to $337,829 ,000, which was an advance of $1,322,000 over the, previous week but a loss of _ $2,512,000 when compared with the week ended October 17, 1928. Debits reported by banks of leading cities for the week which included but five business days in many of the report- ing cities totaled $18,587,000,000, or 7 per cent under the total of the week before and 14 per cent above that for the cor nding week iast year. Aggregate debits for 141 centers amounted to $17,644,000,000 as com- pared with %18,939,000,.000 for the week prior and $15,442,000,000 for the similar comparative period a year ago. Gas Development Explained. Seven major reasons for the rapid- ity of natural gas development in the last few years are given by G. M.- P, Murphy é& Co. in the curret 18- sue of their Fortnightly Review. These are: Intensive search for oil immediately after the war, result- ing in the finding of much gas and stimulating a search. for gas mar- kets; general striving for efficiency by manufacturing plants, creating 4 willingness to consider the merits of matural gas for fuel, and demon- strated ability of gas engineers to es- timate reserves accurately, giving a sound basis for long-term financing. Also, the stimulation of engineér- ing effotts to solve problems con- nected with laying and operating long pipe lines; increased knowledge by the average investor of the merits of natural gas securities, creating a wider market for them; character of those associated in natural gas de- velopment, including such _ well- known names as Standard Oil Com- pany Of New Jersey, Electric Bond é& Share Co., Texas Corporation and Pacific Gas é& Electric Co., and final-| ly, cooperative production and dis- tribution by large operators, meaning more efficient utilization of. gas than under independent operation. Week-End Depression Noted. : Week-end depression was observed in yesterday's business of -the Wash- ington Stock Exchange, bond -and stock sale volume receding sharply from preceding day's aggregates. Total bond sales were $3,500, or %8,300 under Friday’s and the stock turnover of 130 shares was 405 behind the pre- vious session. The new Carpel Corporation com- mon was still selling yesterday, 55 shares passing at 22 and 22%, frac- tional recessions. Twenty-five each of Merchants Transfer é& Storage com- mon and Peoples Drug Stores pre- ferred moved at 116 and 115%, re- spectively. encornerewé, Investors report. is- sued with payment of third quarter dividends shows paid-in capital at $47,787,379.45. The market value of assets, according to officers, is ap- proximately %70,000,000, répresenting @ growth of over $40,000,000 since the first of the year. Boston Firm Prominent, Incorporated Investors, a Boston investment company, with local office, is one of the largest in the field, or- ganizéd in 1925, ‘and has always fol-’ lowed the policy of giving complete publicity of its operations to share- holdera each quarter.. The favor with which this company’s shares has been received by the public is shown by the growth in essets, which have gone from only a few hundred thousand dollars in 1926 to over $70,000,000 to date. The list of investments as of Sep- tember 30 show few changes from the list on June 30. During this period the stock of one company was sold and two comoanies wére added to the list. Holdings in all other companies have been considerably augmented. Lower.profits for steel companies is looked for in 1930 by the business , Conditions service of the. Alexander ‘Hamilton Institute, not only because of a curtailment of demand but be- cause of a consequent reduction of prices. Motor Industry and ‘:teel. The automobile industry has been largely responsible this year for. the conspicuous increase in the demand for steel, although practically all oth- er industries have increased their purchases. It is fairly certain that the automobile industry can not maintain the 1928 pace next year and the other steel-consuming indus- tries are not likely to increase their purchases sufficiently to offset the prospective reductiog in motor car steel consumption. At the same time it is probable that the railroads are making pur- chases. this year. Railroad buying; however, will taper off at the end of the year. But it is quite possit/: that the carry over of unfilled orders into 1930 will be heavier than at the be- ginning of 1929. This promises to modify to some extent the prospective recession in steel output next year. W. W. Owens, general manager of the Railway Express Agency, will at- tend the Norfolk & Western Railway System's efficiency meeting at Blue- field, W. Va., October 22-23, LIVE STOCK MARKETS.

IRVING FISHER, Noted economist of Yale Univer- sity, who will address the District of Columbia Bankers Association Wednesday. — Wall Street Briefs New York, Oct. 19—Reports from the Youfigstown steel district today stated that production § schedules showed continued irregularity in new business, especially in flat rolled products used by automobile makers and will average around 75 per cent of rated capacity during the com- ing week. In connection with the acquisition of the Forhan Co. by Zonite Products Corporation, stockholders of the former company have been offered $5,250,000 in cash and 175,000 shares of Zonite stock for their holdings. This offer equals $17.50 a share in cash and 7-12 of a share of Zonite for the class “A” and common stock of the Forhan Co, The September né net operating in- come of the Pere Marquette Railway amounted to $857,029, compared with $1,274,071 in the corresponding month last year. Orders for lumber during the week ended October 12, were in excess of production, according to reports re- ceived by the National Lumber Manu- facturers Association. Softwood orders totaled 330,581,000 feet, or 1 per cent above production. Hardwood mills re- ported orders for 46,879,000 feet, .or about the same as production, The average price of crude petro- leum.in ten producing fields was un- changed last week from the previous week at $1.652 a barrel, according to the Oil, Paint & Drug Reporter. The average for the corresponding period last year was $1.634 a barrel. The Westinghouse Electric & Manu- facturing Co. has. been awarded a $500,000 contract for electrical equip- ment, including three large substa- tions, to supply power for handling bulk coal and are at Presque Isle, Ohio, for the Hocking Valley Railroad.

STORM Southern Dairies. E. Q—wWould you advise selling Southern Dairies B stock which cost mée on an average about $22, also American Brown Boveri common now 7 per cent new 90. Or should I hold the stocks for a long pull? Answer—Due to persistently un- satisfactory earnings and uncertain outiook class B stock of Southern | Dairies, Inc., is regarded as a radical speculation. Nothing has been earned on class B shares since 1926. While American Brown. Boveri Electrical Corporation is gradually improving its position further progress is neces- sary before participating stock can be considered attractive for invest- ment. Market Stree Rallway bonds 7 per cent are rated as “semi- speculative” by leading bond authori- ties, which indicates that for con- servative investment there are many bonds which are entitled to a higher rating. Cities Service, H. B. WI now have ten shares of Cities Service common stock at 53% and have $500 more that I would like to invest. Would you kindly name some air transportation or aeroplane manufacturing concern that would be a safe investment? Answer—Your Cities Service com- mon stock is well regarded inasmuch as it has always rewarded stockholders in the past for long term holdings. Most of the air transportation and manufacturing companies are in the initial stages of development, and this column would not care to pick out an individual issue for you. In your position with the small amount of money you have to invest; would Suggest that you keep it in the bank until you have saved at least $2,000 and then it will be time enough to select a security suitable for con- servative investment. Continental Motors and Others. L. B. D.—I own 50 shares of Cities Service common purchased at 30. I bought this stock for a 10-year in- vestment. The market rise has been considerable and I am tempted to sell. What would you advise?. I also own fifteen shares Continental Motors purchased at 1714. Would you advise holding or selling? I also own 50 shares United States Financial Shares Corporation, bought at 17144. What is your opinion of this stock? Would you advise the purchase of the follow- ing stocks as a long term investment: Curtiss-Wright, Transcontinental Air Transport, General Motors, Ford of Canada? Answer—Cities Service common is generally regarded as possessing con- siderable attraction for the long pull, but can not advise at what price you should sell your stock. Disappointing earnings reports on ‘Continental Mo- tors make the stock an unattractive near term speculation, However, must refrain from advising whether or not you should hold or sell. There is no record of any “United States Fi- nancial Shares Corporation.” There is, however, a United States Financial Corporation, but, as this is an invest- ment trust this column can not com- mént upon it or give any advice con- made of the stock. The other stecks you mention are all well regarded in greater or less measure, especially for the long pull. This applies particu- larly to General. Motors and to Cur- tiss-Wright, both of which are leaders in their respective industries, Standard Oil and Others. F. J. MI would be pleased to know your opinion of the following stocks before I purchase: Standard Oil of New Jersey, Standard Oil of New York, General Motors and Curtiss- Wright. What dividend is paid by Standard Oil of New Jersey and Standard Oil of New York? Answer—Standard Oil of New Jer- sey, Standard Oil of New York and General Motors are three premier common stock issues. General Motors is subject to wide price fluctuations, and a person of moderate means should only purchase this issue for cash and for long-term holding. Divi- dends on Standard Oil of New Jersey are at présent rate of $2 per year, and $1.60 per year on Standard Oil of New York. Curtiss-Wright Corpora- tion is the premier company in the aviation field and is attractive for long-term holding if you are finan- cially able to withstand possible wide adverse intermediary fluctuations, Railroad Stocks. D. D-—A relative of mine, who at times relies on my advice in placing his investments, for Many years Sas ownéd shares Of common stock in a number of the leading railroads of the country, all purchaséd prior to 19'4 and gome years before that. With the | high market prices now prevailing in’ rails, he feels that it would be wise to take his profits by sale of the com- mon stocks. His idea is to reinvest the proceeds in preferred stocks of some or all of the following roads: Baltimore & Ohio, Southern Railway, Wabash (A), Erie (first), Atchison and Missouri Pacific. Do you think this a wise plan for one entirely de- pendent on the income: from such stocks? Do you think his invest- ments should yield at least 6 per cent without sacrifice of security? Answer—For one who is entirely dependent on the income from his in- vestments, the writer considers the plan suggested a good one. While market profits on the preferred stocks referred t6 might not be as,substan- tial as would those in the common shares- of the same companies, income yield will, in all likelihood, be more regular and certain. The: pre- ferred issues of all the roads named are well regarded and for that reason the change proposed by you would in all probabilitv prove wise in the long run. It is not the easiest matter in the world to find a preferred railroad issue on which the investment yield woulde be “at least 6 per cent without sacrifice of secuity.” It is the opinion of the writer that you should be sat- isfied with a return of even a little less than this, provided there is a.n- ple security back of the preferred shares in which you invest.

Trust shares, I own City Ice common and find it difficult to in view of recent very favorable earnings reports. Answer—This column does not comment on trust shares. City Ice & Fuel Co. common stock, yielding ex- cellent dividend return at current figures, together with satisfactory earnings reports, is well regarded. This column can not venture to explain the vagaries of price fluctuations. Foremost Dairy Products. M. McB.—I have been told of Fore- most Dairy Products as an Investment proposition. I would like to have your opinion on the common and preference shares either for long term holdings or current yield. Ansgwer—Company incorporated in March, 1929, to acquire fifteen South- ern Dairy Products companies. Earn- ings based on predecessors’ operations and company's present capitalization would, have averaged about 98 cents & common share after preferred re- quirements during last three years. 22 and Market Street Railway bonds / cerning what disposition should be | the. Company's earning ‘capacity has yet to be demonstrated and therefore the stock of the company can not be con- sidered suitable for conservative in- vestment holding. f She Has $5,000. Miss S. O'N.—I must get all. the Interest on my savinga possibile as I am 65 years old and while still hold- ing a position, must prepare for the time when I will be unable to work. I havé managed to save about $4,500 and I am inclosing herewith a list of my securities on which I would like to have your advice. I have $500 additional in a building association | which I would like to invest in stocks. Answer—The securities -you have are all well regarded common stock issues and long term holding should be profitable. However, would not advise you to buy more stock with the $500 you have in the building association. Keep it where it ‘is at present invested. When you have saved $2,000, it will be time enough to consider additional securities at which time the purchase of high grade preferred stocks or well rated bonds would be‘advisable as you have enough invested in common stocks. Columbia Gas and Electric. H. C. K.—Would you advise a per- son to séll his Cities Service stock and buy Columbia Gas & Electric common and Procter & Gamble common? Answer—This column can not pre- sume to say whether or not it might prove to your ultimate benefit if you were to make the “switch” suggested, as it is not within its province to point out the relative speculative merits or demerits of any stock or stocks. Cities Service stock has merit and is generally well-guarded for the long pull, so why not be content? It has always well-rewarded the: patient holder in the past. Favors Diversification, W. H. W.—Do you not consider an investment -well-diversified among seasoned .common stocks fully as at- trattive im regard to security and much more profitable over a long period of time (10 to 15 years) than a life investment in gilt-edge bonds? In your opinion, do you consider In- gersoll-Rand a better investment over a ten-year period than, Cities Service? ‘Answer—The writer is a firm be- liever in diversified investment. There has been a great division of opinion among financial authorities as to the relativé attraction between high grade common stocks and bonds. In the past several years during which time an unprecedented advancing market has been experienced unquestionably the seasoned common issues have fa- vored their shareholders with the most profit. However, advancing priees do not continue forever, and in a period of declining prices for the common issues the bond owner has much the best of the argument. The best course to pursue in the opinion of this writer for an investor with quite a considerable capital to place, would be to diversify the investment between high grade common issues, seasoned preferred stocks and gilt edge bonds. Ingersoll-Rand and Cities Service are .both highly re- garded securities. Probably the prés- ent price trend of either would aid in making a choice between them. It is not in the province of this column to do 0. Continental Motors. T. L. 8—Do you think it advisable to purchase Continental Motors at the present price, holding it until | midsummer? Does the company pay a regular dividend?; Answer—Continental Motors’ Cor- poration has paid dividends of 80 cents @ share annually since the second quar- ter of 1924, Despite this fact, the stock appéars unattractive, due to disap- pointing earnings in the past and pros- pects that curreht earnings will be even less satisfactory. Now estimated that earning; for second half of fiscal year to end October 31,.1929, will run somewhat below the $985,337, equal to 56 cents per share, earned in the corresponding period the previous year. As only $582,418 was earned in the six months ended April 30, 1929, it. is considered unlikely that net for the full fiscal yéar will come up to dividend requirements of 80 cents a share. Cities Service Co. J. G. W.—About one year ago I purchased 25 shares of Cities Service common stock, and since ft is on the upward move rather steadily, what would be your advice in the matter— hold for a.better price or take my profit now? Answer—This column does not ven- ture to predict future market move- ments in any stock and can not ad- vis¢ you as to what price you should sell your Cities Service common. That is a matter entirely in your hands. All that can be said is that the com- pany’s excellent past record of earn- ings promises to be maintained and that long-term holders of the shares have always been well rewarded thus far.

RGANISTS and choirs of the ctiy O are planning élaborate pro- grams for Thanksgiving Day, which is the first of the big musical festival in the churches after the summer vacations, Attractive an- thems are available for such programs and the music is a big feature of this national holiday in Washington churches. The fine work done by Washington organists and choir masters in train- ing music students of the city is too little acknowledged. Many of our local vocalists and instrumentalists who have won fame in wider musical fields received their first instruction in this fine art in organ loft and choir gallery. Washngton patrons of music will be interested to learn that the New York Association for the Blind has now established the Lighthouse Music School in that city with 150 blind students already enrolled and “ta- pacity in ‘the school for 750 more. The blind students will use the Braille music notation. The director of the school has declared that blind stu- dents are often more serious and painstaking in practicing than those gifted with sight. ° Violinists of the city are hoping that at the concert of the_ Lener ‘String Quartet of Budapest at the Li- brary of Congress on October 30 that Jeno Lener will use his Stradivarius Instrument known as the “Graffuhle,” | which has never been heard in Wash- ington. This violin was originally made by Stradivarius for the King of Spain. The first concert of the Citizens’ Band of Washington was given at the Central High School auditorium on Wednesday night, with L. C. Phillips, as leader. It was sponsored by the United States Farmers Association. The program was made up of old- fashioned ballads and patriotic airs and marches. The members of the band were dressed in farmers’ cos- tumes and the concert waa given the name of “The Frolicking Farmers’ Jamboree.” The band did very well for a first performance. The ensemble tone was good, and the musicians respond- ed readily to the baton of the leader. With steady practice, it should win a place for itself among the worth- while musical organizations of the city. Thirty-six singers of Washington have formally notified the ~ Atwater Kent Foundation of their intention to enter the District of Columbia triala of, the National Radio Audition, to -be held Tuesday and Wednesday, at the WRC studio. between 3 and 5 o'clock. In addition to these, there are approximately 40 others who have obtained entree blanks. | The final competition, which will be broadcast by WRC, will be limited to eight contestants who survive the elimination trials, and wil) be held October 30, between 6 and 7 o'clock. Under the rules of the competition, the opinions of listeners to the broadcast will count 60 per cent in the final standing of the competitors and that of the professional board of judges counts 40 pet cent, Gertrude Lyons, . lyri c soprano, sang for the District of Columbia Society of the Daughters of the American Colonists. of which she is a member. at their meeting Monday, held in the home of Mrs. William Bonar Bell, when she sang: “Songs My Mother Song.” Mendelssohn; “Hark.

Mrs. Muse formerly ap- peared in Washington in a number of radio and concert engagements. She and Miss Esther Celander ren- dered the duet, “Ich Harrete des Herrn” from the “Lobgesang”’ of Men- delasohn at the German service. At the English service the chorus choir sang the chorale, “How Goodly Are Thy Tents,” by MacFarlane, with incidental solo by William Strobel, barytone. and the Bach chorale, “Grant Me True Courage, Lord,” and Mrs. Henrietta Flynn, contralto, sang “Still With Thee.” by Schnecker. On the Jast Sunday in November the cantata “Sleepers, Wake,” by Johann Sebastian Bach, will be rendered by the chorus choir of 40 voices.

Oct. 19 (A.P.).— Sheriff James S.

DOCKETS CONGESTED The extra session of the Seventy- ‘first Congress has been _.Motable by the early reintroduction .-Of numerous bills, - In Making Powder fp unable to obtain sufficient funds | Stands an excellent chance of winning “eevee @& € classified as pri- ‘wate or ifdividual legislation, ing to members of the military-naval! personnel that failed of enactment Guring the Seventieth previous Congresses. This is a familiar situation, to the @xtent that it is a repetition of the or history of such bills, for the success | of which effort is renewed with a »Rew administration. This circum- Stance has to do mainly with the bills that receive departmenta] disapproval Or were disowned by the Budget Bu- Teau as intrusions upon the presi- dential] financial program. The reason for the reappearance of these claims upon congressional favor is that the advent of a new Presi- dent, and his new Secretary of the Navy and Secretary of War, suggest the possibility of a change in attitude Or policy, although, in the vast ma- jority of cases, the action-taken by the preceding administration is, of ‘Course, a matter of record that is a eonvenient inheritance by the suc- ceeding administration. At the same time, the situation @uch as prevails thus early in the ex- tra sessioh, when nothing apparently is to be done with service legisla- tion, finds the cominittee docket con- gested with proposals that must go through the weary routine of acqulr- | “ing departmental comment and bud- | get affirmation or denial,°as the case | may be. Until the military and naval com- mittees of the House are organized, | it is impossible to estimate the Opinion entertained by committee members toward the private bills. It | May be guessed with considerable | confidence that there will be not) Much change in the sentiment that influences liberality in this Congress as compared with other Congresses. ‘As for the departments, the adher- “@nce to former action in such~mat- ters will be even more pronounced. Navy Lacks Funds Can Not Buy it Either, So’ There Is Shortage for Naval Guns.

War Department... TRAINING CAMP FACTOR Until the War Department renders a decision as to the counting of Army| Medical School service for promotion and that of those medical officers for their training camp service, the pro-., motion of approximately 134 officers of the medical corps of the regular Army will be held up. Capt. Eli E. Brown, War Depart- ment records indicate, was the last medical officer to receive a recess appointment, Congress confirmed his appointment on August 19, 1929. The question now under considera- tion by the War. Department is whether those officers who went to the Army Medical Schoo] as reserve Officers should have that service de- ducted from the service with whica they are credited for promotion, and whether those officers who went to the training camps would not have such service deducted. This point was brought to the attention/of the War Department with the result that a study is now being made of this entire question. As soon as this study is completed by the department these 134 promo- tions will go through. It is expected that the War Department will com- plete its consideration of this subject in about a month.

Human beings are worse than cats, dogs or birds when they spit and blow their noses on the street. I have had cats and dogs and know sthey are clean. I have’ a dog who is kept clean and thought as much of as a child, but the ladies only have time for lipstick and powder and gossiping. I wish there were a law to punish every one -who spits in the street.’ Hives is as old as the hills. Let every one who wants to be well study hygiene. : REPLY I agreegwith you that people should study hygiene. I am against spitting. I would not quarrel with you about hives being a very old disorder. But none of these have any bearing on the fact that dog’s fur may cause asthma or hives, and that cat’s fur, rat dandruff or feathers may be at fault. If it would soothe you any we ‘might admit that the man who gets asthma from dog hair was not 100 per cent normal. ‘ ' (Copyright, 1929.) “Pastors, ‘ 4 2 .). . 3 Rae bia $ +: Oe ‘J 4 = > ? % : ! , a 4 aa ‘2 , + vale 3 7 al ee oe “ cs Fy ae + St 3 » Uae.

Fieser stated that surveys show ap- proximately 45 per cent of all coun- ties have no hospital for general com- munity use, that the supply of doc- tors is steadily decreasing in rural areas and that there are probably at least 1,000 counties without any pub- lic health nursing. 766 Public Health Nurses. Red Cross chapters now have 766 : public health nurses in active serv- ice, and during the last year the na- tional organization and its chapters e ded $747,477 for this work. nm 413 counties the Red Cross is in partnership with the public authori- ties in the nursing service. Fieser stated the organization hopes in forthcoming vears to increase ma- térfally the itinerant, or. part-time nursing service in the 500 or more counties, where resources of the chap- ter or the authorities do not permit engaging a nurse on a yearly basis This itinerant service proposes em- ployment of a nurse for three or six months. “It may be worth while recording the principal activities of the nurses at the present stage of our work,” “School nursing on A county-wide basis still remains th? primary activity in a great majority of the Middle Western and Far West- ern States, while visiting nursing holds first place in the town service in the Eastern States.

\ The Washington Post. WASHINGTON: SUNDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1929. UTSTANDING among the per- manent national memorials to he dedicated of Febrary 22, 1932, in connection with the Nation- wide celebration of the 200th anni- yersary of the birth of George Wash- ington, will be the Mount Vernon Memorial Boulevard. This highway, already under construction, is to be approximately fifteen miles long; will link the National Capital with Mount Vernon, and will be the mest scenical- ly beautiful and historically interest- ing driveway in the world. Starting at the Virginia end of the magnificent Arlington Memorial Bridge, now in the making, the route will pass near- by Arlington National Cemetery, through historic Alexandria City, and on to the postern gates of Mount Vernon. Literally, every foot of the highway will traverse territory rem- iniscent of the.days of Washington. On May 23, 1928, Congress author- ized the George Washington Bicenten- nial Commission, headed by the Presi- dent of the United States and charged with the responsibility of formulat- ing suitable plans for the bicentenary celebration, to select the route for, build and maintain the Mount Ver- non Memorial Boulevard. -To finance the project with an appropriation of $4,500,000. Two routes were surveyed and reported on by the Bureau of Public Roads, United States Depart- ment of Agriculture, to which has also been assigned the task of build- ing the highway. After due considera- tion of the physical features, costs of construction, scenic and historic values of the two routes, the commis- sion chose the river route. This an- *" nouncement was: made on January 24, 1929, at a meeting held at the White House, with President Cool- idge presiding. A broad avenue connecting Wash- ington City and Mount Vernon had its conecption more than 40 years ‘ago. Then, with the idea of building such a highway in view, the Mount Vernon Avenue Association was in- corporated in 1888 by the Virginia Legislature. At a meeting of the *as- sociation held in Alexandria Mayor John B. Smoot, of that city, and H. A. Willard, of Washington, were elect- ed president and vice president, re- spectively. When Mr. Smoot died, a few months later, Jefferson Chandler, of Washington, was named to succeed him. The Virginia Legislature also approved a resolution providing for the transfer of a claim of Virginia against the Federal Government, for money advanced in 1790 toward the completion cf certain public build- ings at the Capital, to the Mount ts self, PAN ROSS RES OO TPR RE : eee Y Or Pairchild Acrial Surveys. and downtown Washington, showing where the memorial boulevard will have its beginning. A Memorial Boulevard to Link thé Capital With Mount Vernon—Plan Had Its Inception Forty Years Ago—Financed by Federal Government— Begins at Arlington Memorial Bridge and Tra- verses lerritory Rich in Historical Interest—Work Vernon Avenue Association. Inas- much’ as the money in question had been expended by Washington him- members of the associatitn thought it would be peculiariy appro- priate to use it in the construction of a-much-needed avenue, which would also serve as a permanent me- morial to the Nation’s first chief ex- ecutive. The Virginia charter provided for a right-of-way 200 feet wide, of which the roadway proper was to occupy 60 feet, thereby leaving 70 feet on each side of the driveway for landscape purposes, and so on. It was further- more suggested that one mile of the Under Way. By P. L. PLYLER avenue be alloted to each of the thirteen original States for especial ornamentation. In these sections the States could set out trees and flower- ing plants from their own soil, erect monuments of marble and bronze to their favorite sons, and such other specimens of architecture as would serve to enhance the scenic beauty and historic interest of the highway. In no other place in the world, the association insisted, could so much historic and natural interest be as- sembled in such a comparatively short distance. Then, under the provisions of an act of Congress in 1889, Gen. Peter Haines of the Corps of Engineers, United States Army, surveyed and reported on three alternate routes. One of these, which was designed as the eastern route, approximates the river route chosen by the bicentennial commission. The surveys made by Gen. Haines began at the Aqueduct Bridge, some distance up the river from the Arlington Memorial Bridge. In making his report to Congress he Suggested that “it would be more in keeping with its character as a na- tional road to have it start from some point on the Arlington estate at the end of a handsome bridge ‘spanning the Potomac River.” ‘That the high- G Se “6 wh CDP LLL IO gt Cie CK, under construction on Shooters Hill. way began accordingly 40 years later is a singular coincidence, Moreover, the present boulevard is to be 200 feet wide, except in Alex- andria City, with a 60-foot paved driveway in the center; automobile parking places will be designated along the route between the highway and the river and the rest of the right-of-way will be beautified by ex- pert landscape gardeners. Another prominent feature of the work will be the construction of seven masonry bridges, harmonizing with the Arling- ton Memorial Bridge. It has also been suggested by a member of the commission. that the original plan to allot a mile-of the highway to each of the thirteen origi- nal States would be exceptionally appropriate. As the highway is be- ing constructed under the supervision of the Bureau of Public Roads by Uncle Sam’s most proficient engineers, the best fifteen-mile boulevard in existence is assured. Back in 1886 when the Mount Vernon Memorial Avenue was first being talked about, some one estimated that the journey from Washington to Mount Vernon could be easily made in at least two- and one-half hours. With the advent of the automobile and hard-surfaced roads, 30 minutes should be ample. time in which to negotiate the me- morial highway. Historic interest begins at the very beginning of the Mount Vernon Me- morial Boulevard—the Potomac River. Up this winding stream from James- town came Capt. John Smith and his fourteen adventuresome companions in their open pinnace, checking up on the tributaries of the Potomac and holding amicable powwows with the Mayonese and Piscataway Indians, whose wigwams then dotted the pres- ent sites of Washington and Alex- andria. On the Virginia side of the Potomac lies a broad valley and on the brow of _the-hill is Arlington National Ceme- tery, where the Nation's illustrious war dead sleep in peaceful tranquillity. But it was not always thus. For four long years, during that bitter struggle between the North and the South, the hills at Arlington were dotted with the tents of Union soldiers, and yawn- ing guns, in defense of the Capital City, frowned southward. Meahwhile Arlington is steeped in historic interest other than the fore- going. Originally it was the property of the famous Alexander family, for whom Alexandria City was named. Then early in the eighteenth century John Custis came from the Eastern Shore to live on his. newly acquirc.

His obstinate £0N, Daniel Parke Custis, declined the hand of a royal-born heiress and mar- ried pretty Martha Dandridge, the belle of Williamsburg. Later Daniel Parke Custis died and his comely widow completely captured the Meart of George Washington when he met her purely by chance at the home of a neighbor. The rest of the story is well known to all. Her children, ‘John Parke and Eleanor, went to make their home with George and Martha Washington at Mount Vernon. Eleanor died in girlhood but John Parke grew ito manhood, inherited his father's estate. married a Calvert and lived ‘at. Arlington. John Parke Custis euffered an attack of camp fever during the siege of Yorktown which proved fatal. Then Washington adopted his two youngest children, Nellie and George Washington Parke Custis. Nellie married Lawrence Lewis, favorite nephew of George Washington, who built Wewodlawn. This estate was recently restored by the late Senator Oscar W. Underwood, of Alabama. George Washington Parke Custis built the famous Arlington mansion, which is now being restored to its origina] state by Uncle Sam. When he died in 1857 the iast link in the household reverting, back to George Washington was broken. Maj. Custis was the monarch of a small empire. Ariineton was the finest estate in the South representing the sublime degree of private attain- ment. Speaking about Ariington House recalls the recent death of Uncle Jimmy Parks, former slave in the Custis-Lee family, who was buried at Ariington. Tne ojld darky possessed a remarkably clear memory, remem- bered Maj. Custis and the condition of the estate at the time of his death, Moreover, he rendered valuable as- sistance to the Government in re- storing the grounds and gardens of the estate. Maj. Custis~ bequeathed Arlington to his only daughter, Mary, who mar- ried Robert E. Lee, then a dashing young Army officer At the out- break of the Civil War Lee cast his lot with the Confederacy. Conse- quently the Lees iefit Arlington never to return. Years later, Custis Lee, son of Gen. Robert E. Lee, sued the Government for the recovery of the estate and was paid $100,008 for the perpetual OWnership Of Ariington. A remarkable view of the Potomac River and a panorama of the National Capita] are available from the estate. Adjacent to the highway, between Arlington and Alexandria, the magni- ficent George Washington National Masonic Memorial lifts its tower sky- ward on Shooters Hill. Fashioned after ancient towers that were erected along the seacoast at the entrance to harbors, as beacons to guide mariners safely into port, it is a symbol of the beneficient influence of George Washington, as well as the Great Light of Freemasonry. Built of Con- way, New Hampshire, granite, the memorial will tower 325 feet above the surrounding country. Within its walls will be a ccommodious eudito- rium, museum, art gallery and a vault in which the treasured memen- toes of the Alexandria jodge may be safely kept. This chamber will be an exact replica of the lodge at Alexandria, as it was when Washing- ton occupied the station in the East. Despite deplorable losses by fire, many of Washington's personal ef- fects have been preserved for posterity by the Alexandria Lodge of Masons. They include his military saddle, the flag of his guard, the flag of the Bon Homme Richard, presented to the Lodge by John Paul Jones, his Ma- sonic apron, the square and plumb bob with which Washington laid the corner stones of the Capitol and the White House; the Williams portrait 4 dependence of America, with Wash- ington presiding. Moreover, it was the church bells of Alexandria that first tolled out the announcement of his death. Although there is no rec- ord of it, it is generally believed that Washington assisted with the survey whén Alexandria was laid out in 1749. Washington street, the main thor- oughfare, which was named for him, is to become a link in the memorial boulevard. Of the many colonial « structures still standing in Alexandria, with which Washington was intimately as- sociated, the Carlyle House is perhaps the time of his death in 1799. About a mile and a half on this side of the estate is the famous Gum Spring, from which Washington was wont to stop and qvench his thirst, while traveling to and from Mount Vernon and Alexandria and Washington. Mount Vernon is one of the most beautiful places in the country, with the imposing colonial mansion over- looking the Potomac; which Washing- ton declared to be the best river in the world, and the spacious - lawn rolling back gently to the water's edge. In 1747 Washington went to Mownt ae aan as ae Historic Mount Vernon which will mark the Virginia terminus of one of the world’s most of Washington done in pastel from life when he was 62—the only por- trait in existence showing the first President attired in his. Masonic re- galia, and numerous other priceless heirlooms. : Washington was initiated into the mystic rites of the fraternity at Fredericksburg. Tradition has it that née affiliated with the lodge three months before he reached majority, in keeping with the conventional custom in English Iicdges. The Mount Vernon Memorial Bou- levard now enters Alexandria City. where Washington was intimately known... There he was a member of the corporation council, the local mil- itia and the Volunteer Fire Depart- ment. Washington also owned con- siderable property in the city. When the British threatened Mount Vernon during the Revolutionary War he con- templated the removal of his family to one of his houses in Alexandria, but this structure long ago fell into ruins. Washington was a vestryman of Alexandria Parish and a regular attendant at Christ Church, where the family pew, preserved just as it was in Washington's dav, may still be seen. It was in this churchyard that the citizens of Alexandria held their first mass meeting to discuss the in- — SRR OO Sa ANE, > Se Oe an ae * ee ee a Christ Church, Alexandria, Va., a landmark on the memorial e , aes. . roud imposing thoroughfares. the most famous. It was built in 1752 by John Carlyle, a native of Scotland, who married Sarah Fairfax, daughter of Lord Pairfax of Belvoir. The house is reputed to have been built on the foundations of an old fort; when, no- body knows, to protect that section from the Indians. Siding with the colonists, John Carlyle’s son, George William, was killed at. the battle of Eutaw Springs while fighting under Light Horse Harry Lee. It was et Carlyle House that Gen. Braddock held a council of war in 1755 before he started on his ill-fated expedition, and there Washington re- ceived his appoigtment as major in the British army on Gen. Braddock's staff. At a meeting of colonial gov- ernors held in ths same building the taxation of tea by the English Parlia- ment, which eventually led to the Revolution, was first suggested. More- over, Carlyle House seems to have been the favorite rendezvous of prac- tically all the great men of the colo- nia] period. Among those who fre- quented the place were Thomas Jeffer- son, Chief Justice John Marshall, Charles Carroll of Carreliton, John Paul Jones, Lafayette, Lee, Mason, Johnston, Rumsey and scores of other famous persons. Nearby at Gadby’s Inn, now the City Hotel, Washington organized his company of provincial troops, with which hé fought the battle of Great Meadows. From the steps of the same building he gave his last military command to the Alexandria Light In- fantry Blues, his bodyguard during the Revolutionary War. In the-balli- rcom, on February 22, 17988, Washing- ton's birth was first celebrated. There in November, 1799; less than a month befere his death, Washington cast his last ballot. Other notable buildings include the homes of Dr. James Craik and Dr. Elisha Cullen Dick, Washington family physicians, end the home of Light Horse Harry Lee and of his two famous sons, Rob- ert E. Lee and Sydney Smith Lee. Still standing on Jones Point, with the inscription complete, within a stone’s throw of the highway, is the origimel cornerstone of the .District of Columbia, laid by Washington a little ‘ more than 136 years ago. Everybody. of course, knows about the retroces- sion of 30 square miles of the District to Virginia in 1846, because it was then believed that this area would never be needed by the Federal Gov- ernment. A-movement to retroccde Alexandria County and Alexandria City to the District in 1865 failed to materialize. Recently, though, agita- tion of a similar step was revived. Leaving Alexandria, the highway crosses Hunting Creek, follows the FPotemac to. Fort Hunt and then on to Mount Vernen, the ancestral home ef George Washington from 1747 to a; Vernon to live with his half-brother, Lawrence, who married Anne Fairfax. Lawrence built the original house, which consisted of two stories and an attic} with four rooms on each floor. Then, too, he changed the name of the-estate from Epsewasson to Mount Vernon in honor of Admiral Vernon, of the British navy, under whom Lawrence had served as @ naval captain in the West Indies. On the death of Lawrence in 1750, and. of his only daughter in 1752, Washing- ton fell heir to the estate, which -con- tained about 8,000 acres and stretched ten miles along the Potomac. When Washington married’ the widow Custis in 1759, the daughter of another wealthy Virginia. planter, thereby merging their respective ‘properties, he became. one of the wealthiest men in America. In re- modeling the house at Mount Ver- non shortly thereafter, Washington essayed the role of both architect and designer. Notable architects who have studied the rebuilt mansion -aver that the house was built to weather - POI Se. Headquarters of the V olunteer the gale for seven to eight centuries. The frame of the structure consistéd@ of handhewn white oak timbers, joined together with wooden dowel pins, and the foundation is as endur- ing as the Rock of Gilbraltar. Thus stands the mansion today almost as it was in Washington's time. Per- adventure it will still be standing as a patriotic shrine 500 or 1,000 years hence. Although Washington won undying fame as a soldier and as a states~ man, he wanted, more than anything else, to rank as the country's. out- standing farmer. “Agriculture,” he wrote to a frined, “is my most fa- vored amusement.” He considered agriculture as the Nation’s .basic in- dustry. And it is so considered by President. Hoover. When he was President, Washington suggested to Congress that the Government ought to do something to help the farmers. Congress acted upon that suggestion last spring, when farm reiief legisla- tion was enacted. Washington was @ Lusiness farmer. He kept books. If any of his projects proved to be uny yofitable he wanted to know how ane why. The Mount Vernon planta- tiot. was divided into five farms, with an overseer for each and a general manager in charge of all operations. Weshington knew exactly how many | seeds, slips or roots were required to plant an acre, and this information was included in the orders to his overseers. When Washington died, in 1799, farm operations .+had been planned up to 1803. During the Rev- olu‘jonary War he required weekly and monthly reports from his over- seers and managers at Mount Vernon. Likewise during the eight years of hig Presidency. | Washington “was well versed in practical methods of crop rotation and of soil fertilization. A large por- tion of Union Farm, one of the five subdivisions, was employed for ex- - perimental tests with plants and live stock, It is interesting to know that agricultural experiments are stil be- ing conducted on this farm. It is now the home of Harvey Clapp, son of former Senator Moses Clapp, of Minnesota, and president of the Vir- ginia Crop Improvement Association. In recent years-Mr. Clapp has prope-~ gated many new types of farm plants. Washington’s famous grist mill, in whieh, -as the saying goes, he greund the cern into meal and, in turn, cen- verted the meal into corn, was located on Union Farm. The original millstone now adorns Mr. Clapp’s front yard. Likewise Washington's uniqué Octagonal Barn, which he described as being equal to any in America as for conveniences of all sorts, scarcely to -be exceeded any- where, was built on this farm. Even in his day, Washington complained bitterly about the wretched one-crep system and its abuse of land, observ- ing that with regular and systematic cropping systems men would become more respectable figures as - farmers. After settling at Mount Vernon, Washington devoted sixteen years to CONTINUED ON PAGE 9, COLUMN 5.

~ i ’ THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1929. Me If You Have Hea GREAT crowd of farmers from the corn belt of Iowa were gathered ir a tent at Cresco. It was a hot day, and few and sad were. the breezes that blew under the eaves of the big top and cooled ghe moist and ruddy brows ‘of the vast assemblage. All morning and all aft- ernoon the show had been going on. The Swiss Bell Ringers had vied with William J. Bryan and Coco, the clown, for popular favor. A broken- down opera singer had caroled “Caro Nome” off pitch-and in the wrong key. But somehow the performance lagged. The crowd wgs restless; the applause indifferent; the management uneasy. It was a critical moment for the chautauqua. Its success de- pended on the next act. If it did not “knock ‘em off their seats,” then the whole program was a “bust.” A blare of trumpets, a rattle of drums, the blast of a bugle and as the curtains fell slowly back a small, sad-faced, plug-ugly sort of a coun- try fellow ‘ambled out. He paused a moment, looked afraid, and then cleared his throat. “You farmers often see a hen with a brood of young chickens hunting June bugs in the clover pasture or tumble bugs in the barn yard. Did you every try to pick out the rooster from the pullets in that flock” Not a sound fiow. The countryman paused again as if waiting for an an- swer. Then he went on. “Get some bread crumbs and sprin- kle them itm front of the chickens. If he eats it, it’s a rooster; if she eats it, it’s a pullet. And then he smiled in his sad sort of fashion, while the farmers and their wives and their children and their’hired hands yelled. For an hour after that the coun- tryman kept his audience in an up- roar. They laughed and they laughed until their sides ached, and for the life of them they could not tell what they were laughing about. In that audience sat a young Bohemian—they are called Czechs now—who had just come to Cresco’to practice law. For some years he had been editing a Czech newspaper in Chicago. -Later he was to become the first Czech min- ister to this country, with the title of commissioner, and then J-»an was the scene of his labors as minister. Now he is teaching constitutional law and is the dean of the National Uni- versity in Washington. Dr. Charles Pergler is his name. One quarter of a century elapsed since Dr. Pergler hear. that humorous address, but never forgot that chicken story nor the man who told it.. The other day he recited the story to me, and by a curious coincidence the same day the mail brought me a let- ter from the story-teller asking me to write his obituary. In order to impress upon me the importance of the task, he rhymed his’ request, and here it is: . A REQUEST. For some sentimental reason I believe it would be pleasin’, Though the cause of it I'll never rightly know— If, when I have weighed my anchor, Set my tops’l jib and spanker, You would write a piece about me, when I go. Dave, your name I often note ° Over some fool piece you've wrote In my daily paper’s Sunday maga- zine. Maybe I don’t rightly read it— Even seldomer I heed it, But it leaves me feelin’ tickled, what I mean. Then I say to me and others: “If so be I git my druthers As I quit this funny place down here below, I’ve a sneakin’ sort of hunch I'd be tickleder than Punch If Barbee done the writin’ when I go.” So, D. R:, when you discover That my earthly romp is over, When I head a short parade that’s movin’ slow; Don’t you set around an’ grieve; Just snicker in your sleeve— Write a funny piecé about .me, when I go. ~ —STRICKLAND GILLILAN. I met this strange genius in the National Press Club the day after the receipt of his request and asked him if he recal'ed the chicken story he What It Takes to Be a Funny Man—Famous Hum- orist Confesses Much and Reveals Many Secrets While Paying Lusty Tribute to Joe Miller’s Joke Book, First Resort of the Raconteur. By was telling 25 years ago, and he said he did, and repeated it word for word as I have set it down. Then he asked me if I had heard the story of’ the unique Tennessee jpullet. Whereupon, on the shake of the head, he pro- ceeded : “A lady bought a fine pullet in mar- ket and bringing it home said to her yard boy: ‘Charles, you see this fine pullet?’” ***Yas’um, Miss Mary.’ “‘T want you to save every egg she lays.” “*Yassum, Miss Mary.’ “Every time she lays you bring me the egg and I will give you a piece of that cake on the shelf there.’ “*Yassum, Miss Mary.’ “That day about noon Charles brought in a fresh laid egg. It was still warm and the hen that laid ft still cackling. -4 2 wees os —— oe pMIERCRRTI Ce eure a a ee egy May TUBLRNITRR son Kad meant anything personal in his question. As a peacemaker I had to say that I thought he was seek- ing information. Ever since I have been dodging the hu-morist. As for writing his obituary, I have no such intention. He showed me his date book and his engagements on the platform as an after-dinner speaker at Kiwanis conventions, and as an entertainer at Methodist Chau- tauquas run up to 1979..I could not think of living that long, no not even for the pleasure of writing this man’s obit. However; I have been making some inquiry ‘round and about to find out what I can about him. I sought out Frank P. Morgan, young- est of the old-timers at the Press Club, who is said to be the _ first white child born in the District, and said to him: “Have you ever heard———? 27 ~—— _— ~~ - oe PRE SO Pe ; ei Le Q, —_—— ee ee ~—— ' i DAVID RANKIN BARBEE at the feet of Prof. T. J. Jackson as a slave boy and learned the truths of. Holy Writ. He is the official greeter of the club. His manner ig perfect, both with the ladies and with the gentlemen. He knows everybody, and everybody krows Mack. “Do you know anything about Mr. Gillilan?” I asked him. “Yes, suh; he’s a fust-class Virginia gentleman,” exclaimed Mack. With this hallmark engraved on his sad countenance we will now proceed to get at his history. Down in Louisa County, where he was-born, they still remember the day when, standing on the streets of the little village of Cuckoo, Mr. Gillilan was mistaken for a hitching post. It was a Satur- day, when all work on the farm ceases and everybody comes to town. A stranger rode in and seeing a motion- less object on the sidewalk, dismount- = orp ry) To “4 broken down opera singer had caroled ‘C aro Nome, off pitch and in the wrong key.” “‘Dat ar’ pullet done laid a aig, Miss Mary.’ “‘*That’s fine,’ said Miss Mary, as she cut Charles a generous slice of cake. “About 3 o’clock in the afternoon Charles came back to the house. This time he held out an odd, misshapen egg that was blunt on one end and erty and creased on the other. ‘*‘Miss Mary, dat ar’ pullet done laid agin’, said he as he held out the abortion of an egg to his mistress, all the time looking up at that cake. “ ‘Now, Charles, you know that pul- let never laid that egg,’ said Miss Mary. ‘Don’t you know that no hen ever laid two eggs in one day?’ ***Go long, Miss Mary. Dat pul- let ain’t studyin’ “bout bein’ no hen.’”’ This man Gillilan has grown wealthy by telling these chicken stories. He has the finest collection in the world, over 10,000, and he never forgets one. The other day he told me that two classes of people should have perfect memories—humorists and liars. A thitd’ person who was present asked him what was the difference between the two, and for once he was caught off his guard and laughed. “No hu-morist should ever laugh at his own jokes,” he says. “It shows bad taste.” After a while he hunted me up as mad as a hornet and wanted to know if I though® the third per- > —_ “Yes, I have. When Strick was a baby about 3 years old his father took him down to the barn lot to see the hired hands do the milking. The boy stood watching the cows come in from the pasture, and when one of them lifted her head and opened her mouth and began a long, loud moo-00-00, he broke and» ran as fast as his fat little legs would carry him. His calico dress rose as he ran and stretched out behind him like a flag shaken by a tornado.” Mr. Morgan let us guffaw at this, as he puffed rapidly on his* grn cob pipe, and when we had subsided, he finished the story. *“Strick’s old man finally caught the baby and grabbing him up asked: “Why, son, what is the matter? What scared you 50?” ae don’t like to hear-the old cow blow his horn.” “Is that where he gets it from?” asked Mr. Bishop. whose ticket was charged with several coffees. “Gets what?” asked Mr. Morgan in surprise. | “Modesty,” replied the dyspeptic cowboy from the Rio Frio. There stands every day at the door of the Press Club a large sable gentle- man who is reputed to have waited on every Presidept since Lincoln— at least every stranger who visits the club is told that story—and who sat ed and threw his bridle reins over the object. An hour later he came back and there stood the object with the horse hitched to it. Imagine his sur- prise when he discovered that it was alive, and human. He laughed at the boy and the boy laughed at him. Then he gave the boy a quarter and the boy laughed some more. The boy had the laugh on him, for he knew he was not -a hitching. post, but the man didn't. Ever since then he has been posing as a hitching post. It pays him well—$500 a pose. If you should ever ask him about this he will say, “Life is just one darh hitching, post after another.” Some day, maybe 1,000 years hence; a scientist will happen on this man’s date book and as he studies it and analyses it he will gradually evolve from its pages a character that will not at allNit my friend. The vade mecum is filled with notes of every speech, every after-dinner address, every humorous talk he ever made; the date and the place and the theme and the stories told are all set down with meticulous care. At first all of this was written out, but now the jokes are filled in by numbers. After a while the tale of jokes became too numerous and the numbers too long, so Strick reversed them like this: They ran from 1 to 999, and then back again from 999 to 1.. Some day he is going to get his numbers mixed and he will find himse]g back in Cresco under the big top f@lling those same old farmers how to distinguish be- tween roosters and puliets. “Hic*fabula docet: that Gillilan knew what he was talking about when he said that liars and humorists should have in- fallible memories, It is a matter of wonder to all of us who know him where he gets all the funny stories with which he lards his funny talks. He doesn’t think them up, for he never thinks; he doesn’t make them up, for he can’t make up anything, not even a bed. Often and often his friends have con- sidered this matter and one of them was delegated to find out the truth “of it. “Strick,” said he, in the presence of the rest of us, “you must have a pretty complete library of wit and humor.” “Yes, I have them all—Joe Miller's Jest book.” And then he told us this curious story. “When I first began to take money for this humor of mine, I thought it Was aS funny asthe devil, for it was SO easy, ’ But after a while the fun was all off, for I had run out of soap. So I.parked the car in the garage and set out in an old wind-jammer with the intention of visiting the grave and the home of every humorist in the world from Adam to Eddie Guest, to see if I could learn the secret of their stuff. As I went through the country I stopped at every second-hand book ‘store and bought every book that even smelled of humor. Finally, like Ahasuerus the wandering Jew, I got back home and found that my folks had built a large brick barn to hold the books I had sent on from my jour- neyings. This they called my library, and vere for ten years I set myself to read what the funny men of an- cient and modern times and the hu- morists of prehistoric times had wrote that made people laugh so. When I had reached alcove A2, I had to stop, for I had developed the worst case of weeps you ever saw, There was no humor in any of it. It was all as sad as an unmarked grave, It was never intended to be funny. “In my reading,” he went on after wiping, his eyes with a blue bandana, \"1 made voluminous notes, and when I came to read them over at the end of the seventh year, I fourfa out that they all repeated and kept repeating themslves. Little by little I culled Out the repeats and then when I typed what little was left and had it bound in red morocco, I laid it aside until it was time to make up my pro- gram for the next season’s chautau- qua, when by accident I happened to pick up Joe Miller’s jest book, and I'll be doggone if Joe hadn’t stole my notes and printed them as his own.” “You don’t think much of the great humorists of the past, then?” he was asked. “Not much,” he replied slowly; “I’m too busy thinking of the greatest hu- morist of the pres*nt.” “Thinking of or for?’ some one ins terjected. It sounded like it was the arch-humorist, Harvey D. Jacob. “ItS all the same, whichever you choose to call me.” And then he made this mortifying confession: “You know, fellows—Robert put that coffee on Mr. Bishop's ticket— this thing of being funny is the sad- dest job in life. If that d—n-fellow hadn’t tied that horse to me at Cuckoo I might have had an honor- able and a peaceful Hfe. But every- body thought that was funny, and whenever they would look at me they would laugh. I thought it was funny, too; but to tell you the truth, I didn’t think much about it at the time. However, it gave me an idea. If peo- ple are so silly as to laugh at a coun- try boy being taken for a hitching post, then they will laugh at any oth- er fool thing he does or says, and my ticket is to make them pay for seeing the! human hitching post.” His sad face and sorrowful eyes lit up with just the flicker of a smile as he let his infant mind roam. Ever since Lincoln came to Washington pro- fessional humorists have made it a rule t@ look sad and never to smile. If they only knew that Uncle Abe loved a good story and had «a hearty, CONTINUED ON PAGE 19, COLUMN }:

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1929. e et IA Nicaraguan Canal.” That may be thg route ‘taken by a very considerable number of ships plying between Atlantic and Pacific Coast ports, within ten years or so. At least, the Army Engineers are going down to Nicaragua to find out about it. A company from the Eleventh Engineers, which has been etationed in Panama, is already in Nicaragua. Troops from the Twenty- ninth Engineers, stationed at Fort Humphreys, Va., and from the First Engineers at Fort Dupont, Del., sailed for Nicaragua, October 15. The whole force wil] consist of 20 officers and 213 enlisted men. The Medical Corps will furnish the necessary personnel and supplies to acvompany the troops. Last March Congress decided that it was about time to make another gurvey for a possible interoceanic ‘anal across Nicaragua. Such surveys Hiave been made at intervals of about YO to 25 years ever since 1529, 400 : ve are ago, and reverence for precedent is every congressman's strong point. Then, too, there is the little matter of the Panama Canal, which has al- ready come within hailing distance of ite capacity. to carry the shipping which shuttles back and forth through this big ditch of Goethal’s. So Con- press ordered the Army Engineers to yo down to Nicaragua and make an- other survey and investigation to gain additional information concerning the most practical route for an _ inter- oceanic canal. About the same tim Congress also voted an appropriation for starting the building of a dam at Alhajuela, on the Chagres River, to store water in addition to the storage in Gatun Lake, on the Panama Canal. This additional water would. provide for an increase in shipping through the canal... Thus do our astute law- makers protect their bets. The United States first became “all steamed up” about an interoceanic canal when gold was discovered in California in .1849. Improved com- munication between the East and West coasts of America suddenly ap- peared imperative. In 1850 the first American survey. of the Nicaraguan route was made. Nothing happened after that, though, in the way of actually digging a canal. Again, in 1876, 1885, 1895 and 1901, surveys were made. Asa final result of all these Nicaraguan surveys, not to mention the earlier surveys of the Spanish and French, it was finally decided to build the Panama Canal. The Panama route was decided up- on largely because of intentional ex- pediency, rather than because it was believed to be better than the Nica- raguan route. The whole story is too long and too complicated to tell here. Suffice it to say that adoption of the Panama route not only saved money, but also saved_an enormous amount of diplomatic correspondence, inter- national conferences, treaties and the multiplicity of crimson twine which 60 often entangle international rela- tions. Will we really get a Nicaraguan Canal] as a result of this latest pre- Miminary survey by the Army Engi- neers? Col. Ernest Graves, of the Army Engineers and a member of the Interoceanic Canal Board, was asked the question the Other day. “I believe we will have a Nicaraguan Canal some day,” he neflied, “but I can not tell wheh. Neither can any one else at this time. Remember that the size ‘S ‘ » SSNS Army Engineers Are Again Tackling the Perils of the Jungle, ‘Tropical Fevers and Active Volea- a noes to Blaze a Trail for a Nicaraguan Canal— Some of the Obstacles to Be Overcome and the Cost in lime, Money and Men—Is the Project Worth the Price? By ROY GRIFFITH Photo by W. V. Alford. A raft camp on the sit Canal survey of 1901, a repetition of which is just now being and expense of engineering projects are constantly increasing. Projects that formerly appeared too large and too difficult to undertake are now be- ing carried? out easily. Engineers were, at one time, afraid to use large earth- en dams, but the great Gatun dam was built successfully. At the present time this immense dam has a com- plete golf course on its summit. As commerce grows, the chances of suc- cess Of a giant engineering project such as the Nicaraguan Canal increase.” Pessimistic forecasts that “it can’t be done” do not worry the Army En- gineers overmuch,. All military’ train- ing is crystallized in the soldier’s ax- iom, “When you're told to do a thing, go ahead and do it.” If the Army Engineers are tolq to build a Nica- raguan canal, they will build it. As early as 1625, predictions were made that the wrath of God wouid follow any attempt to unite the At- lantic and Pacific Oceans by artificial means. In that year Josephus Acosta, an early traveler through South and Central America, wrote: “I bebhieve there is no humaine power able to beate and breake down these strong and impenetrable mountains, which Gog hath placed betwixt the two seas, and hath made them most hard Rockes, to withstand the furie of seas. And although it were possible Photo by W. V. Alford. The, engineering party. of W.V.

The world has traveled far since’ Acosta’s day; engineers of today declare they can complete a Nicaraguan Canal in ten years. It is, théy say, simply a mat- ter of men and money. This in spite of the fact that previous surveys are today out of date. Says Col. Graves: ‘‘The last survey in 1901 de- termined elevations and set bench marks, but most “of these marks were described with reference to trees, and it is doubtful if the present survey party will find many of them. The previous work will probably have to be checkéd throughout. Trees and all vegetation grow too fast in the tropics to make survey markers of much value unless they are used soon after._a survey has been com- pleted.” Although the prowess and engineer- ing knowledge of the Army engineers are unquestioned,” it remains true that the building of a cana] through Nicaragua presents staggering prob- lems and difficulties. Hacking one’s way with a machete through swaying curtains of verdure in the eternal gloom of the jungle is no job for the languid. The humid heat of the day, the sudden and torrential show- ers, and the thousand and one perils of the jungle- would not be a good advertisement for a pleasure resort. Many of the objections to a canal through Nicaragua have been based on the prevalence of volcanoes in the. western part of ‘the republic. There is, for instance, the old lava-spouter canned Coseguina, on the Gulf of Fon- seca on the Pacific Coast, where it has been proposed to establish a naval station. Coseguina staged a tremendous eruption in 1835 which lasted four days. Volcanic dust and ashes fell over a vast drea. as faf as southern Mexico and Bogota. There is the volcano of Ometepe, on the island of Ometepe’ in Lake Nicaragua. The proposed canal would utilize. Lake Nicaragua as about one- third of its route and that route would pass within ten miles or so of Ometepe. The sullenly smoking Ome- tepe decided in 1883 that it was time for some fireworks. The fireworks were duly produced. This yoleano was again active a little more than four years ago. | The volcano named Masaye, near the proposed canal route through Lake Nicaragua, blew up in 1902. Since’ then, it has only grumbled oc- casionally. Add to these the volcanoes tagged by the euphonious names of Momo- tombo, Telica, El Vie Jo, Miravelles, Tenorio and Orosi. Most of these are popularly known as “dead” volcanoes, yet there is at least a possibility that some one or more of, them may come to life some day, just as the others “Mentioned may decide at any time te stage a Vesuvius. Should one of them become violently active, a bil- -lion-dollar cana] might’ be put out of business. Engineers admit that they can not control volcanoes or earthquakes. Geologists, however, say that the pos- sibility is remote of a volcanic erup- tion seriously injuring the proposed canal. And, as Col. Graves points out, “San Francisco did not go out of business when it had an earth- quake and neither would a Nicaragua Canal. Any damage to the canal would be repaired; just as San Fran- cisco was rebuilt.” Hunt hy | Up Hi S Shovel The volcano menace is not all, Nicaragua, about which the -whole canal project centers, is exposed to damgerous tormadoes caused by the prevailing northeasterly winds meet- ing opposing wind currents from the Pacific. Can engineering science find a way to protect shipping through the proposed canal from these tor- nadoes?. A way will probably be found, It is easier to provide protec- tion against windstorms than to keep voleanic ash and sluggishly but ir- resistibly flowing lava from clogging up a canal. The proposed Nicaraguan Canal is one of the most daring and stupen- dous engineering projects of all time. To blast a waterway across 157 miles of mountains, jungle, fever-laden swamps, and a body of fresh water— Lake Nicaragua, a third the size of Lake Erie—is a job for Titans. But modern engineering science has made of frail mankind a race of Titans, and before many years the canal will probably be built. The work of the present force of Army Engineers will be but a weather vane pointing to- ward increased canal facilities and increased world commerce. It might be well for you to get a picture of _the proposed canal in your min@ You or your son or your grandson may go through it some day. In the first place,there is Lake Nicaragua, a fresh water lake 100 miles long and 45 miles wide, situ- ated about in the center of Nicara- gua. From this lake, the San Juan River meanders eastward to the At- lantic Ocean or, more properly speak- ing, the Caribbean Sea. The canal would begin at Greytown, on the Caribbean side, where an artificial harbor would be built. From Grey- town, it would follow the San Juan Valley 100 miles to Lake Nicaragua, cross the lake at an angle which would mean about 70 miles of travel, and continue across the mountains on the Pacific side to Brito, a distance of about 17 miles. At Brito another artificial harbor would be constructed, This is one of the four proposed routes. The other three are just like it except that they provide for the Pacific terminal of the canal to be at Sen Juan del Sur, at Salinas Bay or in the vicinity of the Gulf of Fon- seca. If the Pacific outlet should be in the latter vicinity, the canal would be seVeral miles: longer. Nature, im her planning, failed to take account of. the fact that puny man might some day desire to get from the Atlantic to:the Pacific without going around Cape Horn, There were, therefore, unfortunate obstacles when it came to building the Panama ditch.. There are also several apparently baffling barriers which confront the future builders of the Nicaraguan Canal. Engineers are inclined to smile at these barriers which appear so baffling to non- mathematically minded folks. ‘-En- gineers are pretty confident that al- most anything can be done with the magic of men and money. Some of the obstacles which seem so serious to the ordinary man have already been mentioned. Another is the fact that mature placed the water surface of Lake Nicaragua about 106 feet above sea level.

20, 1929. -T WON'T be long now! I With the oratorical explosives all set—and some of them already detonated—the lid is about to be blown off the lobbying situation as at present constituted and declared to exist for the contemplation of all who care to look on Capitol Hill. Primary impetus to the determina- tion on the part of more than one of the Nation’s legislators to find out what this lobbying bvysiness is all about may be laid to the tariff. Not that they don’t know what it’s all about, but periodically it seems to be necessary to go into the matter in & serious and big way. There hasn’t been a tariff bill put through Congress in a good many years that didn't bring forth a lot of talking in Senate and House about the lobbyists. It’s a poorly endowed member, indeed, who isn’t able to dig up a lobby to which he can devote considerable earnest attention and picturesque speech. Proponents of a tariff on “this” attack the friends of a duty on “that” and the men who live in districts Which produce large quantities of “what” belabor the industriés from other States or districts which only bring forth tons of “which” and no “what” soever. ‘Phen there was a certain party by the name of Shearer who bobbed up in a most persistent way and found himself faced with the accusation of having thrown a monkey wrench into the machinery of the Geneva naval limitations parley and _ otherwise gummed up the works. A number of distinguished fabricators of divers martial commodities found it ex- tremely difficult to remember what this Mr. Shearer looked” like, or for what—if at all—he was hired. This circumstance, coupled, of course, with many more that seem to tend in the general direction of establishing at least attempted con- tacts with those concerned with formulating the laws of the land and shaping our foreigm relations, on the part of intefests largely on the out- side. .ravenously looking in, has started something that somebody has got to finish. So the stage is set. enator Caraway the rough, and al- Ways ready, militant Democrat from Arkansas, has promised to press for Passage a bill to regulate lobbying which has already gone through the enate. It declares a lobbyist to be “one who shall, whether for pay or Otherwise, attempt to influence leg- islation. or to prevent legislation by the National Congress.” Other bills have been introduced, in the House of somewhat different character, but all directed toward the influencing of Congress for or against legislation. Several senators of the progressive group are understood quite generally to be conducting broad and sweeping private investi- gations into the lobbies of Washing- ton and the preparations will no doubt be complete for a grand dis- play of fireworks when the proper Moment arrives. Just what is.a “lobby” enyhow? There are well over 100 organizations with representatives in Washington who are quite openly interested in the acts of Congress from time to time. Included in that list are such Organizations as the Chamber of Commerce of the United States, the American Federation of Labor, the American Farm Bureau Federation, the Antisaloon League, the National Woman's Party, the National Grange and many others well and favorably “ Known to thousands of persons. Altogether the organizations may be divided. into seven ciasses, trade essociations, agricultural organiza- tions, labor organizations, reform or- ganizations, professional associations, women’s organizations and national- ists and internationalists. Some of them are exceedingly active at times and at others do very little. But there is hardly any one familiar with Washington, in Congress or out, who would accuse any of them with dealing surreptitiously or attempting to corrupt members of Congress. They have offices in their buildings or rent quarters in well-known, structures; they are listed in the telephone and ether directories; many of their rep- resentatives are well known in official life. ; . They are the better known of .he 109-odd with representation here, but Congress Proposes. to Determine an Answer to This Problem by Conducting a Sweeping Inquiry Into the Activities of All Seeking to Influence Legislation—Previous Attempts Cited and Pos- sible Impediments Suggested—“*Who’s Lobbying Now?” Pertinent Query. By ROBERT DUKE Senator Thaddeus H. Caraway, of Arkansas, who feels that there ought to bea law. it is pretty certain that none of the others is engaged in lobbying of any other nature than that of presenting its cause to Congress in the best form that it may present it. The trouble about wholesale charges of lobbying is that in the public mind there is associated with that word “lobbyist’’ the thought. of something sinister, underhanded. The “lobby” of the older days used to be known also as “the invisible government,” and its presence used to be ocon- demned violently €verywhere when political capital could be made out of such condemnation. No doubt, in. the past history of the United States there have been sinis- ter attempts to influence Congress for or against legislation. No doubt there has been bribery of officials, in- cluding members of Congress—al- though that might be very hard to prove. But there probably isn’t one member of the 500-odd in the two houses who would admit that he has any thought in mind that money is being used to buy votes for or against any bill im these days. Washington is full of “lobbies.” You can find them at the Capitol, in the House and Senate office build- ings, at the hotels, at the country clubs, at their own public offices, al- most everywhere but in the ceme- teries, and the fireworks of this fall Or Winter, at that, may develop that the best lobbyists are the dead ones. But just what kind of lobbyists are those so easily found? The Chamber of Commeree of the United States, for instance, has a membership of local chambers throughout the coun- try, or more than 1,200. It speaks more nearly perhaps than any other agency, for the business man of the Nation. j The American Federation of Labor has an affiliated membership of °49 State federations and nearly 30,000 local unions. There are about 2,000,- 000 women in the General Federation of Women’s Clubs who may be sup- posed to be interested in the activi- ties of the National Woman’s Party or some other organization of women represented in Washington and work- ing with it on some lines. The Farm Bureau Federation has showed its strength in the recent efforts to put through legislation to benefit the farmers. It has 45 State organizations and thousands of mem- bers in the farm belt. How great the power of the Anti- saloon League has become has been demonstrated time after time. There is no question but that it had a major part to play and played it successfully in the passage by Con- gress and in the adoption by the States of the prohibition amendment to the Constitution, the passage by Congress of thé Volstead act, and the Jones “five and ten” act. No matter how one feels about prohibition or about how it was made law, it would be foolish to deny that the League has had, and probably has today, a very large membership throughout the Nation. That's by way of background. Of course, it is almost: obvious that the other organizations and associations represented here must have some- where behind them a considerable number of individuals interested in industrial labor, reform or other questions that come before Congress from time to time. How many scores of business enterprises or how many hundreds of thousands of individuals may actually be represented by all the organizations it would be im- possible to figure out accurately and almost useless to guess, except that there can be no question that it would run far up into the millions. Will Congress legislate to wipe such organizations out of existence? No, because it couldn't do so. It woulkin’t be constitutional, and while the worth of the Constitution between friends has been considerably diminished in some quarters in recent years, it is not possible to tell a man to shut an office where he is conducting a peaceful and not unlawful business. About the utmost that Congress can do—and it may do it when the boys have roused its. temper by fiery speeches about the tariff lobby---is to provide strict regulations for lobby- ists; make them register, account for all money spent; even perhaps wear uniforms, for that has been suggested in past years. It would add quite a bit to the gayety of affairs in a dull world if gentlemen who appear before con- gressional committees were required to wear. formal lobby dress on those occasions. Imagine the diguified Charles”Evane Hughes appearing. in behalf of American firms manufac- turing door knobs made out of Peruvian mush, urging a lower duty on the mush, clad in a suit of red with white trimmings. Or John W. Davis, who might appear for the im-_ porters of icebergs, In a uniform of blue with yellow facings. Perhaps the Senate will just talk about the lobby and postpone action for the time being.

There wasn’t any evidence developed to show tliat senators had been bought, or even that there were well-known quota- tions on the leasing of members for short or long periods. There was no showing of vast sums to be used in buying blocks of votes.

HE District of Columbia is 4¢, game preserve. One who hunts and knows wild life can find quail, reed birds, wild duck, occasion- ally a wild turkey, foxes, raccoons, opossums, rabbits and squirrels. Several years ago before Connec- ticut avenue was so improved I was surprised to see a flock of turkeys in the woods between that thoroughfare and Pierce’s Mill. Evidently they had flown over.from Virginia and did not stay long. The wild turkey formerly was Aa common resident of the District of Columbia as well as nearby Virginia and Maryland counties, but now is very rare. Occasionally small flocks still are seen in Fairfax County and in Bull Run Valicy. Some years ago a nest was found in the Great Falls neighborhood. ; Once while hunting a lost fox- hound on the Frank P. Milburn place, just west of the Congressional Coun- try Club, in Montgomery County, I saw a beautiful hen turkey. As I made my way through a thick strip of cutover woods, she ran out of a brush heap into the path ahead of me, rose and flew into the pines 500 yards away: She seemed badly frightened and must have been away form her home range, for although I have been in that section many times since and looked carefully, I have never seen her again; she was an ac- cidental visitor. During certain seasons the Potomac River teems with ducks and a great many are killed in the winter months. Birds and other game of the Dis- trict are protected by. rigid laws, They flourish, but have to struggle for existence since they have many natural enemies that take advantage of the legal barriers against the man with the Red country along Rock Creek and other gun. dwell in the wooded foxes streams running through or near the city on their way to the river. ‘Coons and ‘possums travel the dis- trict by night when they can steal out unmolested. Leland C. Speers, .a Washington newspaper comes from South Carolina, the land travels well-known man, who of ‘’coons; says in al) his through America and elsewhere he has never seen them more plentiful than in this immediate vicinity. The ‘coon is a difficult proposition when it comes to taking him on. his own: ground. He runs in swamps, likes the water-covered places and knows how. to fool] dogs. One must have an educated hound to follow him. When tired he goes up a tree, and, routed from there, fights. An old fellow, with experience, can whip a whole pack of green yelpers. The opossum is a scavenger. He likes back lots and garbage cans. Set upon by dog or man he moves away at a slow gait, and overtaken, pre- tends to sleep. Some time ago when house wreckers tore up the floor of an old barn in the Cleveland Park re- gion, they uncovered nine ‘possums, all of them fat, comfortable and con- tented. They were using this build- ing for sleeping quarters and sallied forth at night for food. Early travelers often see ‘possums going in after a twelve-hour prowl. This time of year, when the air is crisp and invigorating, gun-hunters -— they are in a class by themselves— can not resist the temptation to oil their weapons and get ready for a few days afield. I have never hunted with a gun; never cared to. The trailing hound is my hobby; I dislike to shoot anything. A contest between a@ dog and a fox is fair, and in this particular territory if the quarry tires he can duck into a den and laugh at his pursuer; that is fun for me. I like to see a foe win. Squirrels, rabbits and Bob Whites are sport and meat for gun-hunters. A marksman likes to pick a squirrel out of the top of a tree, stop a run- ning rabbit, or bring down a flying* bird. None of these pastimes can. be in- dulged in, in the District, where one is prohibited from firing 2 gun. This makes Washington and its outskirts a safe resort. But much pleasure may be derived from studying the vari- ous game creatures, taking snap- shots amd encouraging them to re- main about one’s home. They are most interesting, if one will but stop and watch, them. . Moved THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY. OCTOBER 20, 1929. ' the Nation’s Capital | Another of the Plain Tales From Washington’s OQut-of-the-Way Corners, Dealing With Haunts of Nature Lovers and the Pernicious Practices of Those Who Are Not. In the White House grounds all sorts of visitors tarry and play with the squirrels and pigeons, and watch the pvrple grackle and European star- lings. A beautiful, light-gray. squir- rel, with a lot of style, frequents the lawns there. He is nearly white, and looks 4s clean as a new pin. Many callers admire him. Among the star- lings that light in the inclosure once or twice a day, is a crippled bird; he has only one leg, the other is entirely gone, but he hops about with the flock. For three years, according to Policeman Allen, this courageous lit- tle fellow has been showing up there after the nesting season. He seems to fly with the best, but on the ground is at a disadvantage. Any one may go through the Dis- trict of Columbia and see interesting individual tirds and animals, dthong which close observation will reveal few distinctions. ‘: ’ ‘ ie Nays rs “Red foxes But, when all is said and done, the majority of persons fall harder for the stocky Bob White, who becomes very friendly on slight acquaintance. Every one likes him and his family. Recently I rode down town’ with a newcomer to Cleveland Park and he beamed with joy over the fact that he had discovered a covey of Bob Whites in his back yard, “‘feeding like tame chickens.” The fellow was all puffed up over his good luck. “Why,” said he, “I have lived in Washington off and on for ten years, and never saw the like before. I would not take a hundred dollars apiece for those birds. My wife has bought feed for them. “By George, I could hardly believe my eyes. I was shaving, and glanc- ing through a window, saw this drove of birds—ten or a dozen—too large for sparrows or German starlings, and on closer examination I found they were quail, making themssives at home.” My neighbor could not have been happier had he uncovered a gold mine on his place. “Those little chaps,” he added fondly, “will make my wife happy all winter. She has been throwing out food for the squirrels ever since we to our new home, and, just recently, she ordered a lot of care- By BUCK BRYANT fully prepared nuts for them: she will take on the Bob Whites. “I call that living.” Thousands of Washington people fee] the same way. They are sorry for the friend who dwelis where he never sees the moon, nor hears the birds. Bob White is a most agreeable neighbor. He steals quietly through your yard or. garden, gathering weed seeds, wild fruit, and insects. He likes the Colorado potato beetle, the chinch bug that destroys wheat and other grains, cucumber beetles, wire- worms, billbugs, clover-leaf weevils, cut-worms and their ilk. on the ground, in a straw field or other open, grass-covered place, and hatches from ten to eighteen eggs. In the spring and summer, subur- now .banites hear the clear, loud call “Bob White.” If not fami#liar with it, one may .mistake it for a merry boy. In the fall and winter, when scouting for food and dodging enemies, he says, ““‘Whewee-fee,” the note that collects his scattered brood. The plumpness of the quail, or Bob White, makes him a favorite. In the days before the rage for lithe, wil- lowy figures, rustic lads were wont to boast that their “girls” were as plump and neat as “partridges.” That was considered a compliment indeed. ._ The District of Columbia, thickly settled as it is, teems with Bob Whites and other birds, and their natural enemies. Protected from men, they become friendly, and more or less in- timate, but always are on the lookout for minks, weasels, ground rats and kindred enemies, also found here. in abundance. Fortunately, the deadly firearm of the pot-hunter or the ambitious lad can not be used without permission from city authorities. One fall, when I took daily walks through what is now known as Massa- chusetts Avenue “Heights, from the Washington Cathedral to Rock Creek Park, very frequently I saw Bob Whites. In my rambles I counted more than a dozen coveys. My dog liked to chase them. Once, much to my chagrin, he caught a full-grown bird. As the flock rose he watched it light, then ran into it, grabbing right and He nests left and ahead of him as the single birds got up. Finally he seized one, ran toward me and dropped it un- harmed at my feet. After I held the bird a few minutes it recovered from its fright and shock and presently flew away to join its mates. One particular family of quail that ranged west of Rock Creek, near where the Wardman Park Hotel now stands, numbered seventeen. I watched them grow from tiny fledglings to fat, handsome birds. Every time I passed that way, Tom, the dog, would rout them. One morning I came upon a little bunch of feathers and some bloodstains on the grass. A hawk, of the cooper, or sharp-shinned, family, had breakfaSted on a Bob White. I saw the hawk and knew him to be a bird hunter. Many a morning I had observed him sitting, hidden on a limb, waiting for an opportunity to seize a weaker neighbor. well in the wooded country along Rock Creek and other streams running through or near the city on their way to the river.” Some time later, on a beautiful, sunny day, as I strolied along a path at the edge of a hedgerow, I heard a swish and a shreik of a bird in dis- tress, and a robin fell at my feet. A hawk—the same one that had killed the quail, I think—had literally knocked her out of a tree and would have carried her away in his talons had he not seen me and taken fright. Es attack rendered the robin help- less, SO I picked her up and hid her under a cedar tree. When I returned an hour later she was gone; she re- covered and flew away. That. hawk, or one like him, preyed Whites until. on the covey of Bob the last of the young ones was gone, but he was never able to catch the old ones. I saw him drive one of the youngsters from cover and kill it. It was a week or more before I could dismiss that field tragedy from my mind. The pathetic cry of the doomed quail, as she made a final dash for life, distressed me. Bob Whites in the District have many enemies besides the hawk— among them, the prowling cat, the hungry dog that runs at large, the ground rat and the trapper. Cats often catch the old birds by stealing up on them. The dog, usually a poorly-fed setter or pointer, does much damage im hatching season. One that is alert and agile can de« stroy, in a single attack, an entire flock just learning to fiy. Many ®& trap, built out of sticks, have I seen in my journeys about the suburbs, But friendly people delight to have quail about the place. They enjoy hearing them say “Bob White” in the spring and summer, or “Whew-ee-fee” in the fall and winter. The trapper of decades ago who sought wolves and other predatory animals was considered a blessing im his country, dnd he stalked his game with his head up. But, if one tries to locate the fellow in the District of Columbia who sets a steel trap for a fox, ‘possum, rabbit or other eni- mal, or, a dead-fall for birds, he will find him slinking along, hoping thet no neighbor will see him. One winter I found many snares, and now and then, dead rabbits in them, hung by the neck. The snare is a very simple, but crue] thing. It is made by cutting the top branches off a very small dogwood or other tough tree, tying a string to it and bending it over to form a spring for the slip-loop on the end, so that when the rabbit touches the trigger it tightens about his neck, lifts him clear of the ground and strangles him, The bait used is a piece of whole- some smelling apple. When first I came upon these death snares I thought some smal] boy had set them to see if he could imitate a trapper, but upon finding a half-dozen, or more, along one hedgerow, I realized that the person behind that game was a@ pot-hunter, out for meat. The man with steel traps is after fur. He spreads them so that there is no escape. If he catches dogs or cats or other domestic animals, he is sorry, but resets his steel and goes ahead. I knew a Washington subur- banite who lost an Airedale and a Scotch terrier. He thought they had been stolen. . Months later their bones were found on a nearby creek bank, held tight in the jaws of two traps. The dogs were caught and died from exposure and starvation. Roaming in the outskirts one day I came upon a man with a red fox in a pen, He had trapped him, catching him by-one front foot, breaking the bone. I asked him what he intended doing with the fox. He said he had sold it to a riding club for a race, but would not let him go until the bones had knit. When asked if he didn’t think it cruel to use the fox that way, he replied that he was more interésted in the money he was to get for it. Often I have wondered whether any person would have the heart to turn a fox, crippled in that manner, loose before a pack of blood-thirsty hounds, I can think of no more unsportsman- like contest. Any fox captured and carried from his own range can not get away from. first-class dogs. It would be unfair to make him try |\t. At home, on familiar ground, sur- rounded by protective cover, an old red asks no odds in a show-down with ‘the best of hounds. He likes to run and thwart them. But, bag him, handke him, and turn him out, far from his range, and he is handi- capped. Add to that a weak foot and you break his spirit and heart. There is nothing prettier or gamer than a full-grown, sound red fox leaving cover to set a pace for a pack of hounds. With his beautiful tail waying and his head high, he glides smoothily, gracefully over field and meadow—unafraid, and happy.

She converted these bills which appropriated large amounts Of money to be spent in her district into laws. Nobody had ever heard of such a thing.

By WILLIAM ATHERTON DU PUY va Mrs. Ruth Bryan Owen, woman congressman, and daughter of the late William Jennings ’ a ¢ : ‘ L239. as the daughter of her father, lived in many places, married a British army officer, served in the Near East as a nurse during the war, reared a con- siderable family, has grandchildren, taught public speaking for three years in the University of Miami, has been a chautauqua speaker for eight or ten years, knows every State in the Union - through having spoken in all of them, is a widow, was elected by one of the biggest majorities ever polled in this spectacular district where Mediter- ranean fruit flies, West Indian hurri- canes and 2-mile-a-minute automo- bile races lend variety to life. To all of which should be added the flash of a figure as straight and tall and strong as that of a grenadier, brown eyes, iron gray hair, an engag- ing and disarming personality, an un- usual mastery of the art of public speaking. But, strangely, I looked in vain for marked resemblances of Col. Bryan, whom I used to know quite well. After Mrs. Owen had got her three bills passed in her first month, rumors of others of her activities be- gan to assert themselves. The rapidity of exchanges of information between her district and the Federal Govern- ment, when the Mediterranean fruit fiy struck, brought out another ‘novelty in her method. She has in Florida, it seems, what she calls a resident secretary. A congressman is given a certain fund for the employe ment of secretarial help. By skimp- ing it can be made to pay salaries to as Many as three people. There is no eregulation as to where these secre- taries shall do their work. Mrs. Owen stations one of them in’ her district. He is her resident secretary. It is his business to keep in touch with the district. The person who holds this post in the east coast district in Florida, is Walter 8S. Buckingham. Here is the way the resident sec- retary fits in: Mrs. Owen studies the Situation in Washington. She finds out what services exist under Federal Government that might be put to - work in Plorida. Maybe the sol! sur- veyors of the Department. of Agri- culture, or the mapmakers of. the Geological Survey, or the harbor deepeners of the War Department, or the mosquito Killers, or swamp drain- ers, or public health vitamin in- jectors, or some other agency, of the Bryan, whose unique methods of giving service to her constituents are creating consternation . : among her fellow représentatives. Federal Government, has something that Florida could use. Mrs. Owen lists all these available services. She sends the list to Resident Secretary Buckingham. He goes all about this jong, slim district @ith its varying seeds, and finds out where these Fed- val agencies can be used. Maybe he vill find needs that the services un- @arthed by Mrs. Owen do not cover. Yie may report to his principal that advice is needed in organizing boys’ corn clubs or relief to World War vet- erans. She will find out if anything along these lines can be done in Washington. Tha resident secretary enables the Con €-ssman to be ad- ditionally useful to the district, Mrs. Owen holds. She will keep one of them down in the field as a listening post, and, reversing the current, a broadcasting station. “What if my folks hear about this,” other Congressmen are saying. “Will they insist that I put on a resident secretary? Will that not develop a lot of worries for me?” Having got this resident secretary idea into operation, this energetic woman Congr An begins the de- velopment of ano idea which | “The Lady FromFlorida’Works Fast _ should probably be set down as het favorite among these innovations. “After every session of Congress,” she says, “I shall report in person to my constituents. I shall inform them as to what I have done in Washing- ton. I shall bring to them a report of how matters are going at the headquarters of their Government. In doing so I shall carry to them as much education in political ecomomy as I can, : “The plan for doing this is quite complicated, but I have worked it out in detail. There are eighteen coun- ties in my district. I shall spend a day in each of those counties. It will be a very full day. Here is the pro- gram for it: I shall arrive in a county after due announcement of my intention to do so. I will have asked that the leaders in the coynty be prepared to show me their prob- lems—those needs which the Federal Government may be able to help them to meet. In the forenoon we will go about, inspect the harbor that needs improvement or the pro- posed site of a new postoffice. I will ask that I be shown in detail the local problems. I will carry away first-hand knowledge of them. “TI will have asked in advance that a luncheon be arranged by some such local group as the Chamber of Com- merce. Thus at the noon hour there ’ will be ample time for the discus- Sion of the problems we have seen, for consultation with the county leaders. “The afternoon will be given over to the women. They will have been asked to arrange a meeting at which to meet me. We will talk as woman to woman. There are a surprising number of ways in which the Fed- eral Government proffers aid to women. Through county agents it may carry to them the detail of a utilization of their surplus fruit and vegetables. It will furnish plans for ideal cottages at low prices. It will advise them in the care of their babies. It will furnish them with exact information as to how to grow flowers In their gardens. They may not know of these many services of the Government. I will show them to my women and direct them as to. how they may be used. “The big meeting. and climax of my day in each county will be the night gathering. It is then that I will give the accounting of my stew- ardship. I shall hope to have large audiences at these meetings. I shall report in detail as to the problems I have met and what I have" done in the face of them. I shal) discuss the problems of national govern- ment in their bearing to these, the people of my district. I shall try to bring home to them an appreciation of government in the course of its actual functioning. “In these night meetings my spe- clal care and consideration shall be the young people. To me the most precious thing in any community is its youth. The mind of youth is so active, so impressionistic. It has not yet formed set opinions or fallen into set habits of tHought. Youth is in- terested in such problems as those of government. It is with youth that the great opportunities lie. I shall make every opportunity to get my young people out. When I come to face my eveming audiences’ thesé young people shall be my chief con« cern. If I can plant in their minds ideas that are helpful, think what a long time they will have to use those ideas. “After this evening in the county in which I deliver my magnus opus I will have yet another item in my report that yet will not have been delivered. The Secretary of the Treas- ury, Mr. Mellon, has made a motion picture of Washington the Beauti{u!. It is a splendid thing. It gives ths beholder a look at his Capital -Ci‘y which is so rapidly emerging into'« beauty spot that is equaled no pila:» else in the world. It portrays ti» city of the future now in process of taking form, made visible by tl» modeis of the magnificent Gove ment buildings tha’ are soon to }b» erected. _I-shalt take his _film_—with me.

His headquarters was a log cabin consisting of one room, which was living room, bedroom, kitchen, dining room and jail all in one, for in one corner was a steel- barred cell. On the evening of January 22, 1900, he was alone in his cabin, sitting close to the stove for good reason. Outside the biizzard was raging and the thermometer registered 50 be- low. For several days what little day- light there had been was all but blotted out by the seemingiy endless, blinding chaos of heavy snow coming down, swirling up, itself driven and Jashed by blasts of wind 8 degrees colder than freezing point.

Every bit of reading matter had been conned until it had lost all image and even meaning; Duncan had even read the labels on the cans and boxes of hig supplies, read them over and over, and tried to fecd his starved mind on the advertising matter they carried.

Soot ‘must have heard or sensed the ap- proach of some man, Duncan de- cided, Were it not for the impossible weather outside, Duncan would have thought that old Donovan was com- ing again to complain of his pigs having been shot and his hired hands threatening again to do him ijin.. But not even the threat of death at the hands of man would have driven any sane person out to sure suicide in that storm. Soot, however, was on his legs now, growling, uneasy, his nose sniffing alarm in the air. If any human being was outside, blundering about to get to the cabin, he must be in sore straits indeed. For with the blizzard pelting into one’s eyes and with no lamp to guide a wayfarer, 20 feet from the cabin was as bad as being 1ost as Many miles away. Any one who was out there needed quick guidance to the cabin; even Soot had to run to the door. Dun- can did not stop to put on the heavy varb without which a man could not live for more than a brief hour in that searing cold. » . . o AN and dog butted into the bliz- zard blackness, the dog barking, Duncan Calling. The wind threw their voices back at them. Little dressed as he was for the exposure, Duncan could not keep up his search indefinitely. He fought the storm un- til he got to the log storehouse, 20 yards from the cabin. Then even his Mounty sense of duty told him that he must go back to the cabin if he did not want to perish. Turning in what he thought was the right direc- tion, Duncan plowed through the snow, peering ahead, trying to dis- cern against the swirling black a steadfast triangle of silhouette, the cabin. He trudged and trudged and the cold began to fasten on his hands and feet. Duncan slapped his hands and stamped his feet to keep them, from freezing. Then he scooped up snow to keep the blood in his fingers’ from congealing. But his one thought was no longer for anything but to reach ‘the cabin alive. y For he realized now that he must have passed it in the dark, and it was entirely possible that unless by luck he blundéred in the right direc- tion he could get lost as completely in that blizzard as if there were no human habitation within miles. He dared. no longer think of any- thing or any one but to get back to the cabin. In his present plight without his.furs he would be in a short time of little use to any one. Indeed, already his hands and feet had lost all sensibility and the numb- ness was creeping up his limbs. In contrast to this, his face was a mass of raw agony, with every snowflake falling on it like the sting of a whip- lash. Decidedly he needed to reach that cabin soon. Where was Soot? Was he lost, too, apart from his master? With an ef- fort that cost agony Duncan put fro- zen fingers to his lips and blew a shrill whistle. He risked precious minutes as he stood still, waiting for the dog to hear him—if he was with- in hearing. For Duncan's one hope, outside of a- perilous gamble on a game Of blind man’s buff, lay with his dog; and if Soot was also lost—— * + a * HE first glow of warmth since he had left the cabin surged through Duncan’s heart as he felt Soot’s muzzle against his knees. Forcing his frozen fingers into a clutch on the dog’s collar Duncan shouted, “Home, Soot, home!” The dog sank deep in the snow 4s he. toiled forward, almost burdened by his master. Suddenly. Soot stopped. peered. Was it the cabin? No, it was something in the snow; for, insensitive as his feet had be- come, Duncan felt something soft ly- Duncan ing underfoot. He bent down to see. The next moment he was seized by the knees and flung violently down. A heavy body hurled itself on top of him, the body of a giant with the strength of a giant in the blows that half stunned Duncan. As suddenly as the attack began it changed its form, Duncan felt teeth close on his throat just below the jaw. He felt the gush of warm blood down his chest and inconsequently there came to him the thought, how soon would that blood freeze? But with a maniac’s teeth sunk in his throat Duncan had little time for thoughte It looked, in fact, his time were altogether up. For with hands and feet, arms and legs al] but re- fusing to obey him, with most of his strength already sapped by exposure he had little left with which to fight this giant man-animal. What little he had Duncan decided to stake on a single gamble. Gather- ing his last ounce of strength the Mounty clenched his fist, breathed a wisp of prayer, then drove for the jaw that pressed under his. The bone of knuckles struck a jawbone and Duncan felt the man suddenly sag and lie still. + . + 7” For Some moments Duncan lay as still as the other. unconscious man and rose. Soot had gone again.. But there close by was the dark square of cabin wall. Now that he was on his feet, with an unconscious man probably freez- ing to death, Duncan’s sense of duty asserted itself above his instinct to save his own skin.

The glow ‘of the stove was consid- erably diminished and Duncan felt scarcely any difference between the humbing cold outside and the tem- perature within the cabin, except that there was no longer the stinging lash of the snow to contend with. But the maniac he had brought in was showing signs of returning con- sciousness. And with consciousness there came back amazingly his vio- lence. He began to rage and struggle and with every moment he used up Duncan’s rapidly diminishing strength. Duncan himself was barely con- scious of how he managed to drag the maniac to the steel cell, open it with one hand, and thrusting bis prisoner inside the Mounty tried to close the door... It was his .last conscious effort. For in the freezing dark the Mounty suddenly sank back into space and oblivion. Excruciating pain shooting up his arms and legs and throbbing in his throat brought him baek to sentience. His limbs were alive with agony but almost dead as far as power to move went. In the dark only the last dull glow of the stove‘ was visible. Dun- can’s mind was still in a twilight of consciousness. He lay there’ trying to piece together what had happened. Then he heard laughter. It was the laughter of a triumphant maniac. It pealed through the cabin like the knell of doom to the Mounty who lay there with useless arms and legs, with the strength gone out of him. The burst of laughter was brief. In the silence that followed he heard slight sounds made by hands and knees along the cabin floor as the maniac groped about him, Another sound Duncan heard, Soot scratching at the door, whining to be let in. The maniac must have thought that where the dog was the master would be; for Duncan heard him stealthily make for the door of the cabin. Finding nothing there that he wanted the madman turned back and once more came the wisp of sound that told Duncan the maniac was agein crawling in his direction. It was guesswork on the part of both. Duncan could hear the other and at any moment he expected to feel the grasp of groping fingers. aa * * a UNCAN was a splendid specimen of physical hardihood and his courage had won him commendation from his superiors. That he now . tried to escape those seeking fingers tells us something of his situation. The maniac was dressed for heavy weather or he would never have reached the cabin alive. Duncan was stilt in the clothes he wore when he sat hugging the stove. The mad- man’s hands and feet, arms and legs were very much in use, as Duncan read in the stealth of his movements. The Mounty’s limbs were paralyzed and only a fool would have attempt- ed to fight’ it out with the maniac in such a situation. When he Suspected the manfec was - near him Duncan tried to crawl else- where. -In turn his efforts to get away must have been heard by the other, for each time Duncan stopped, exhausted, he heard the man coming for him. The. Mounty knew he could not keep up this game many minutes Jonger. Again he felt not only his strength but Ris consciousness ebb- ing. And again he hoarded his little all for a final effort. There was no longer any question of striking out. As deadly a foe as the madman had hold of the Mounty, and if the one did not get him the other would. There was but one place to crawl to if Duncan hoped to escape freezing to death. The stove was almost stone cold by now. Duncan expended his little all in grawling to the side of his bunk. omehow he managed to make his way into it and get under his blankets. It was not sleep that over- took him the next instant, but Dun- can could not know the differcnce. He was out and mercifully remained unconscious of his plight, The flow of something stinging, Nfe-warming, down his throat made

The Sergeant had heard that Osta- Powich was seen the day before headed in the direction of Duncan’s post and had traveled all night tos get there. He found poor Soot frozen ‘to death just outside the door. Insite the cabin the sergeant saw @ strange sight in the light of the - morning, for the blizzard had stopped and the sun was out. Duncan lay, not sleeping, but unconscious, in his bunk, his face the color of marble. And on the floor, one hand clutch- ing a corner of Duncan's blanket, lay the giant maniac, frozen to death. Constable DuAcan was given no more arduous patrols to do. Soft berths were: his portion thereafter; but. no. fellow-Mounty begrudged them to him. For, as Duncan himself put it, “a man isn’t much use on patrol who has six toes and most of hia fingers gone.” But in his own way he, like a good Mounty, had got his man. . * * € NOTHER and more famous contest between the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and their eternal protagonist in the North has become @ classic in endurance and confiict, even if the story of the Fitzgerald- .

When Francis Fitzgerald presented himeelf as a recruit to the force of the police whose ordinary routine often calls for the hardiest manhood obtainable, the recruiting officer was little impressed and definitely suspt- cious.

For instance, of the Indians in the region .one of the constables wrote: “We were warned before_we came into the country always. to sleep with our heads toward the middle of the tent, so if Indians tried knocking the flaps with axes they would hit our feet. It was only two years ago that two squaws murdered two white men who had surprised them in camp in the practice of cannibalism.” * > . * H®™= too came American whalers to poach in Canadian waters.

The “fort” was. a hut built on Peel River, near.the mouth of the Mackenzie River. Then the head of the. mission departed, leaving Fits- gerald and his three colleagues to represent and uphold Canadian law on this bleak continent. “Maj.

Not one of the four had ever taken the trip before; yet Fitzgerald refused to be burdened with a native guide, he could not count on a native to show the urge, stamina and speed needed for this dash against time, climate and. wilderness. He meant to have only athletes in his team. An Eskimo, Esau, he tolerated for the first leg of his journey to guide them to Mountain Creek; then he would send him back to Fort Mac- Pherson.

They had to travel as _ light as Fitzgerald's party, lighter, for they had a sterner need for making speed than Fitzgerald had. Any mistake in judgment, any un- toward delay, any unlooked-for perils of the trail, and what may have hap- pened to Fitzgerald’s party would happen to Dempster's.

It meant a trail, wheth- er an old one or made by Fitzgerald's party they could not tell. But round and about it the search- ers circled hunting for the prover- bial needle in the haystack, in a tem- perature of 40 degrees below zero.

The recruiting officer said so in no uncertain terms. Fitz- gerald hotly retorted that the ser- geant major had no right to judge a man simply by his looks. By dint of nerve the youth, who looked barely 17, managed. to force himeelf through as a roerult. In, the next, few) years, Fitzgeratd’s history as ® Mounty shows only two eutstanding items.

The. second time he was brought up on the car- pet for carrying too full a load of liquor. His defense became rather fa- mous. If more liquor had _ 0been served him during the winter, he said to the commissioner, the few drinks he had would not have gone to his head. Constable Fitzgerald was warned that the next time he sinned against the reguiations in any way, in addition to punishment he would be dismissed from the force. This seemed to have sobered the obstrep- erous young Irishman, who was de- veloping physique and . hardihood, for thereafter his conduct as 4&4 Mounty improved. . He became engaged to a girl and decided to marry her as soon as he had finished out his term as a Mounty. Supertendent Constantine took him along as a noncommissioned officer on an. important assignment that landed them: with three con- stables at the mouth of the Macken- gle River on the Arctic Ocean, near the American boundary line of Alaska. _ The job up there was to make Cana- dian law a reality in that wild region. Which left Fitzgerald in command of all that frozen region; with only three fellow Mounties to rule the savage sub-Arctic Indians, the Eski- mos and the poaching American whalers; to endure a climate that was capable of a 70-degree drop in tem- perature inside of a few hours, and to patrol a vast: waste of snow, ice, with its treacherous alterations of thaws and tnpeaing, plicsated idaie fs fit polar ga ne: | A one of his men “Pitzgerakd,” as wrete home, “has grown ten years older since last summer.” But the “aging must have been skin-deep only.

Yet the Mounties who made the midwin- ter crossing from one post to the other could find it in themselves te convert the perilous trip into a sport- ing marathon. The man who took fewest days to make the journey in midwinter could call himself the champion of the North. And it was an honor that fired Pitzgerald to achieve. Constable For- rest ‘set the mark for the patrol from Dawson to Fort MacPherson at twenty days.

Dawson rejoiced. “Fitzgerald is com- were Indians, one cousin; Fort MacPherson had sent them to see what had become of Fitzgerald and his men. More than 60 days had elapsed since Fitzgerald and his party had left and they were everdue back at the fort. Superintendent Snyder at Dawson summoned Corporal Dempster.

For fourteen years Dempster had been forging the metal in him for some such cal on the iron in him. “You will leave tomorrow, corpo- ral,” Snyder said. “for a patrol over the Fort MacPherson trail to locate the whereabouts of Inspector Fitzgerald's party.

But they could not tell whether Fitzgerald and his” party were headed for Dawson or back to a : n. For, instead of bd gver difficult portages to save distance as an athlete would, the trail led in wasteful detours where travel would be easier for a crippled outfit. It did not matter whether the weakness or break developed in any of the men, the dogs or in the equip- ment. Remember that Fitzgerald had cut down to the irreducible minimum the stores he took with him for his marathon. Anything, no mat- ter what, that broke and delayed them in that stark wilderness and in that consuming cold spelled fatality. And Dempster read a bad limp in the trail he uncovered. Dempster knew Fitzgerald's fiber: If ¢that.man limped there’ must be more than ordinary reason for it. He re@Miembered a story of the time when Fitzgerald was waiting to be recruited for the: army. The night before he was to offer himself he broke one of his toes.in a fall. The next ‘day, afraid that this injury mizht cause his rejection, he walked several miles to the recruiting sta- tion with his boot off. Just before he reached there he put on his boot pad made his appearance as a recruit without the alightest sign of a Imp, Dempster found Fitzgerald’e next ‘Pebruary 22, . 1922. camp only four miles away, and a third less than three miles beyond that. Each camp meant a day's travel. At that rate it was no won- der that neither Dawson nor Fort MacPherson had been reached. New discoveries followed fast. In one camp they found the four paws of a dog. The Fitzgerald party had been reduced to eating their huskies, In a rotting shack that marked the end of some prospector’s efforts the » Dempster patrol saw the Fitzgerald toboggan, ite canvas torn, its seven sets of dog harness in a tangle of “abandon. The trail now definitely led back toward Fort MacPherson, the waver- ing trail of the crippled athlete. Less than two days’ normal jouraey from the fort Dempster came on an Indian's abandoned fishing cabin, Lashed to the rafters was the de- spatch bag of the missing patrol, the initials of the famous police reading like some sign of doom. ' Five miles farther toward the fort were found a police camp stove, the tent, tent poles, even cups. Every- thing had been thrown over for a late desperate dash. for~trome. Then three miles beyond that the Dempster patrol saw a bit of blue rag tied to a willow. This message was unmistakable. “You who will be sent to hunt for us will find «us here!”* From the pathetic flag ran a faint trail into the bush Es There the searchers came upon the bodies of Constables Kinney and Taylor. The first to crack under the Strain, they were while yet alive wrapped in blankets and left there with a camp kettle half full of a stew of moosehide, while Fitzgerald and Carter made another try to gain the fort and bring back aid in time. And their last sleep overtook the two men while they waited to be saved. First.Kinney had died of cold. Then Taylor, left alone, must have decided not to wait for death to come to him; the rifle by his side told the story. Dempster, who also had his prob- lem of traveling light, covered the bodies with brush and pushed on in his’ search Ten miles beyond the first tragedy they came on signs of another—a broken snowshoe. In the deep snows of a Yukon midwinter a broken snowshoe is what a sinking ship would be in midocean. And by the broken shoe lay Constable Carter. Here too the ‘story was tragically clear. Pitzgerald and he had lit a fire, not for warmth but as a signal for help. But there was mo one to gee the smoke, and Carter died. Pitz- gerald tried to carry him. But after several yards he gave up the effort, crossed his comrade'’s hands on his breast, covered the face with a hand- kerchief and went back te his bit of fire to wait. There were many trips to cut fire- wood; then even the ax broke. Pitzgerald picked up an ember and wrote on the last page of his police diary of the trip: “All my money in despatch bag and bank, clothes, &&c., I leave to my dearly beloved mother, Mrs. John Fitzgerald, Halifax. God bless all. F. J. Fitzgerald, RN.WM-P.” But nowhere in the diary, nor on the face of the man when they found him, was there sign or note that even with defeat upon him had the Spirit of the athlete died’ even «4 Inoment before death itself.

S. epee dang JORICO, the latest novel by the famous Euglish author, William J. Locke, is the story of under unusual pee mysterious circumstances by Maj. Wilfrid Tobin Boyle, ; three other members of his family; Ruth, an extraordi- sary girl, aa p ere Toby's amazing deaf and dumb servant. The story opens in war-torn France when Jones falis, half naked and shell-shocked, with complete loss of memory, speech and hearing, into the trenches commanded by Maj. Boyle. old Ancestor John Gregory Jorice-appears when the family finds proof that he, a bold and bloody pirate of the old days, has left hidden some- where on the earth a treasure fortune of five hundred thousand pounds. By dint of careful research the supposed location of the treasure is finally located in the Island of Trinidad. Gripped by the fever of treasure hunting, the strangest company ever to sail the seas on such a venture departs for Trinidad from England aboard the luxurious private yacht of Lady Jane Crowe. With this setting, Mr. Locke, in the brilliant style which has made him the favorte author of thousands, adventure, perils of the sea and an amazug mystery of secret charts and pirate lore—all against a vivid background which has as its central fea- ture one of the most colorful love stories of modern fiction. a treasure hunt entered upon In England, later, the shade of unfolds . thrilling story of high INSTALLMENT NO. 2. was worried. All sorts of things had conspired to worry him. There was the story of Ancestor Jorico’s fortune; the offered opportu- nity if not of an adventure, at least of a two or three months’ life in an atmosphere breathable by man, and also by an extraordinary request made to him after breakfast by his man. Jones. And Binkie was so cocksure. There was no flaw in his argument The only flaw lay in his conclusion. Where there was some five or six hundred miles of desert coast wherein to hide treasure, why did the old man Jori- co bury it, with unimaginable pain and sweat, in the. very middle of a virgin. tropical forest? Well, there was the map, with the bird, known as the little devil bird. There was the chest guarded by a little devil. Binkie triumphed. Jones had conducted himself of late in a queer fashion; that is. to say, queer for Jones. He had taken to dressing himself up in his best on his afternoons off and absenting himself to the full limit of his leave How he managed to get about, Toby didn’t inquire. But why Jones, who until recently had contented himself with ‘constitutional walks in Hyde Park and occasional visits to cinema theaters, should have launched out into more remote adventure, was a mystery. At last, when apparently he considered the time had come for an explanation, he gave his master to understand that he had discovered some of his long-lost relations. They lived near Sevenoaks, in Kent. He had gone there several times by train; but only on the last excursion had he found them. Toby wondered how he could have gone by train to Sevenoaks thereby underrating the resources of Jones. The booking clerk at Gharing Cross Station who, con- fronted with an obvieusly deaf-and- dumb man and supplied with a draw- ing of seven trees with an unmis- takable acorn to signify their species, could have no doubt that the man wanted to go to Sevenoaks, and by his gestures that he needed a return ticket. It was as simple as all that. How, unable to read, did he know when he reached his destination? He worried his fellow passengers with his picture. He seemed hurt by Toby's questioning. Surely, he de- clared, in his own way, he was.a man of ordinary intelligence. Toby gracefully admitted the fact. It took a lot to defeat Jones. Yet: Toby would have liked to know how, by his T was in a bad mood. Toby Pictorial metlacd, he could have ob-' tained a ticket for Yeovil ‘or Abe- rystwith. The only worryiug- part of that Sat- urday morning’s preoccupation with Jones was his promise to drive the man down to Kent to see these rela- tions. He had sacrified his usual soli- tary and soul-cleaning week-end at his Berkshire cottage, near Newbury, where he had a bit of trout stream to fish in and a useful sack to ride over the downs. If it hadn’t been for Jones he would be there now, for on Saturday morniigs Palmyre could generally look after itself. And ‘t was such a mellow, windless Octobr day. He could have had a pleasant after- noon’s rough shooting. But Jones could not be refused the first favor he had ever asked. It would have been inhuman. > 7 > + E see them, then, after an early and hurried tunch, side by side in Toby's comfortable two-seater car. Through the dismal tram-defaced thoroughfares of don—New Cross, Lewisham, —the drat. suburban world all afoot or awheel; then at last through the leafy avenues of Kent. the su”. bur- nishing the already golden foliage and the russet of the northern slopes Now and then, attracting Toby's at- tention, Jones waved a hand at some wood-embowered manor house and, grinning, sketched a thought. Toby smiled comprehendingly, and, with a free left hand, sketcl sd > his reply. southeastern Lon-. Bromley Yes, it was typical England in the plenitude of her beauty and her bounty—the comfortable and com- forting mother of their race. “Great,” said Toby. “Makes you feel as you want to cry,” said Jones in his lightning pan- tomime. Toby felt very near to Jones. There was a curious spiritual appeal and response in him. “Perhaps if he could have talked and heard and written, this well f emotionality might have been dissipated in the common way of life through the ordinary channels of communication. But. thought Toby, the man, so definitely cut off from communication with his fel- lows, must have accumulated within himself such an unrelieved well, the pressure of which might account for the many loyalties, the strange eager- ness and indon.itable self-reliance of the*terribly stricken man. . They approached Sevenoaks. Jones made an onward sig. They passed through the old sleepy town, with its remaining half-timbered, gabled inns and shops. He directed a course along the Hastings road Then, suddenly, he touched Toby. Ther. to the left, 100 yards away, was a turnstile. Toby obeyed. A fairly wide rode dwindled into a lane. A short distance farther was a Mmarrower lane to the right, which Jones decreed should be take. “There,” signed Jones. ‘And there was a little workman’s cottage, embowered in Virginia creep- er, standing in about half an acre of. ground, a few yards away from the road. There was a rickety gate shut- ting off a short fiagged path, on each side of which straggled a most utili- tarian kitchen garden. By the cot- tage wall a few belated hollyhocks drooped despondent. But the domi- nating gesture, in the middle distance between the rough fence and cottage, was a girl with a spade, digging potatoes. As the car stopped at the gate, at its sudden cessation of noise, she drew herself up and, with spade care- lessly drooping from hand, she re- garded the newcomers under con- tracted wide brows. Jones sprang from his seat, opened both the door of the car and the gate for his master, and followed him into the garden. Toby advanced and took off his hat to the girl who remained rigid and unwelcoming. “I’m afraid our friend here,” said he pleasantly, “hasn't been able to explain me. He was with me for a bit during the war, and now he is my confidential servant. My name ~ is Ma jor: Boyle.”” * "The ¢irl looked him up and ‘down. She wes nearly as tall as Toby. “I don’t know what he’s come for, sir,” she said, in a very dignified and yet respectful way. “He was here about a week ago and mother and I thought he was mad. We were rather frightened.” Toby smiled and waved away any suggestion of terror. | “He’s the best fellow in the world. and as sane aS you are or I. The only thing is that he was done in during the war. Mine explosion—s@ he’s deaf and dumb. A sort of shell- shocl;—you'’ve heard of that, haven't you?” “Of course.” ~ ‘“He’s a case of it... Well, he and I have made up a sort of sign lan- guage of our own, and I gather from him that he thinky he has found some of his relatives here. He asked me to come down and interpret for him.” “I don’t know of any missing rela- tives,” said ‘the girl, “but pernaps mother may. Will you come inside?” She dropped the spade which she had been holding all the time and dusted her hands on the dark blue print apron. Toby noticed that they were beautifully shaped large hands. He also noticed something else; or, rather, became conscious of what hitherto he had been subconscious; that she was a young woman physi- cally out of the coinmovn of girls that dig in gardens.

Jones sat «.Qwn on the edge of a Sstraight-back chair. There was a short and peculiarly awkward silence. The two women were perfectly civil, but on their guard. Toby felt rather a fool. He turned helplessly to Jones. “What about it?” he. asked. Jones signed rapidly, pointing now to the mother, now to the daughter. “He says,”’ Toby at last interpreted, “that he is a nephew of yours—that your sister married his father.

I’ve tried him with pictures of tailors and all kinds of smiths—trades you know—and in fact everything pic- torial I could think of—and all no good. How could he give me any idea of your name, now?” “A gentleman once told me,” said the girl calmly, “that our name came from the Norman French, and meant ‘cut iron.’ Toby eyed her shrewdly, spoke in an educated way. “I’m afraid,” said he, “that Jones isn’t enough of a French scholar to express it.’’ for she € turned ‘and, met Jones’ intelli; gent yet haunted. ' dyes. He gave him to understand that they wanted him to tell them their names as a guar- antee of good faith. He held up pathetically helpless hands. As an experiment Toby drew on the little block which he always carried, a casque half cleft by a sword. Jones sprang up, his pallid face alive with excitement. He made. the passes which signified to Toby, France, and France only, and, taking the block, sketched the unmistakable outlines of France, and handed it to Mrs. Telli- fer. Then, by way of confirmation, he took the knife front the table half laid for tea and made as though to cut the kitchen range. “He knows the name right enough,” said the girl, nodding with some kindness of recognition to the quiver- ing man, who, at her sign reeumed his seat. “I’m glad that’s fixed anyhow,” said Toby, with a sense of relief. “You see, we're not impostors. What he really wants, I think) is to get at his own name. He knows it; of course, but can’t tell us. Won't you help, Mrs. Tellifer?’’ “I had a sister,” said the woman. “She's dead now, but-I never speak of her. Perhaps you can understand, Sir. After all, even if he knows our Name, that doesn’t prove he’s my sister’s child, does it?” It didn’t.

Toby expiained how Jones had fallen, wounded and half naked, into his trench years ago. That was sall he knew about him. “Tea'’s ready,” said Ruth. After the meal Toby took up the family album. Old photographs and costumes interested him, he said Ruth cleared away the tea things, aided simply and efficiently by Jones. smiled her thanks at him, and Jonhes’ eyes grew bright. Suddenly Toby drew from the al- bum a large photograph cut.from an illustrated weekly. He held it up with a laugh. “What's this doing here?” “That,” said Ruth, turning, “is the » Countess of Duffield in court dress.” “I know,” said Toby. “I designed =~ - She regarded him perplexed. “The dress came from ‘Palmyre.’ ” “How do you know?” “I was her ladyship’s maid for five years.” the. absence of many rusticities in the general demeanor of the potato dig- He laughed: “We’ve each found a guarantee of good faith, apart from Jones.

He pointed to heaven, and with his finger sketched to Toby's practiced eye an obvious picture. of the veiled adonna, such as one meets with in any Roman Catholic church or book of’ devotion. “My God!” said Toby to himself. “the fellow is not far out.” But he fell to wandering where the devil he had seen a blue-eyed madonna of a Yady’s maid. He gave it up. It was time to go. He put in, perhaps un- y necessary, a plea for Jones, the waif and stray indubitable cousin. No matter how unskilled they were in s sign language, his swift intelligence would s00n make communication easy « He was such a good fellow. * Silently and almost imperceptibly Jones had washed up the tea things, f hung the cups on the dresser nails, and tidied up the kitchen grate. “Will you tell him, sir,” said Mrs. Tellifer, “that he’ll be welcome when- @ ever he likes to eome?” “And you, Miss Tellifer,” said Toby, ‘perhaps' you might give him an hour or two of healthy digging.” She fatighed outright for the first time; for ‘Toby’ could’ put ‘now and then a humoroug twist on’ his brown ' face. v “It would be a Godsend, sir.” , “Then all’s well,” said Toby cheer- fully. “Good-by. And a thousand thanks for your. great kindness and hospitality.” The women went out to the gate to see them off. * * - e OBY told me about-all this a day s* or two later. “It’s an unlucky devil like Jones who would be in this position, He has established himself as a cousin of Ruth Tellifer, and neither she nor her mother have any idea of his name.”’ “Striking girl, this Ruth Tellifer, ou say,” I remarked, Toby waved an impatient hand. “I’ve told you about her. Now she has carried on in the this female cat vanity which I’ve got to do with—I know I’m prejudiced, but that’s the side of ‘em I’m up _fgainst all the time—and the Duffield woman is just hell’s delight in the shop—the worst type—how the girl molds herself to it is beyond my comprehension.” “Your ignorance of woman, my dear Toby,’”’. said I, with an air of vener- able wisdom, “is colossal.” > “Thank the good and merciful God!” said Toby, pulling out his pipe.

But the others’’—she shrugged. “One apparently is a woman. Now it ap- pears-it’s an idiot’s hunt for buried treasure.” “Binkie seems to have chapter and verse for it,” I said. “And it’s not unromantic.” “Nothing to do with me,” replied Jane Crowe. “I'll take ’em there and back, no matter what the weather's like. If they‘re in their bunks all the time, so much the better! “I've given sailing orders for Jan- uary 6. But you'd all better dine with me first. I'll telephone round and fix up.an evening.” 3 The dinner took flace the next week at her big house in Park street. I wouldn't do more than chronicle it as a mere fact were it not that before the evening ended Lady Jane Crowe fell in lov: with Toby; which is .ger- mane to the story. Now, when I say “fell in iove,” I’m not suggesting the romantic sexual passion of a woman of three-and- fifty for a man of 35. I use the phrase en tout bien et tout honneur. Sex entered into it, of course. So it must enter into the relations of mother and son, brother and sister. I want to make this clear from the start. At any rate, that is my opinion. The idea of weather-beaten, hard- bitten, stringy-muscled, keen-eyed, thin-lipped Jane Crowe relaxing into sloppiness over a young man appeared to me as humorous. But without any shade of disguise, she manifested her delight in Toby. They had met as distant relation at far intervals, at odds and ends of times; but this was the first occasion on’ which they met, as it were, heart to heart. Jane began to dig into Toby. And very soon she dug out Jones, in whose prehistoric remains—isn’t the war, prehistoric?—she was vastly interested. And somehow Jones led to the mention of Ruth Tellifer, who had accepted Jones as a matter-of-fact cousin (welcome there whenever he visited the cot- tage), and once took tea with him and Mrs. Baxter, Toby’s housekeeper, in the Mount street flat. From this they divagated into other paths no less interesting to Jane. During the ladies’ interva] after dinner, she made herself very pleas- ant—so I learned—to Hettie Dairym- ple, plump and blushing and shyly on the defensive. When the men came into the drawing room she listened, ironically courteous, to the impatient Binkie, threw a few kind words to my unimportant self, and then hostess duty over—to quote Nicola’s semi- intelligible language—‘‘wallowed in Toby for the rest of the evening.” And from that time on Toby saw a good deal of her. + * * * Arev days after this a fog, dense and terrible, the first of the win- ter, descended on London and turned it into a blinding and _ suffocating horror. It had begun as a thin mist at 2 o’clock in the afternoon and had gradually thickened until at 5 o’clock it became impenetrable to light. Leaving the office, Toby took hat and coat and plunged into the fog. His way was familiar—Hanover street, Brook street, the east side of Grosvenor Square, Carlos place, Mount street; but to an accustomed blind man the round would have been easier. He lost his way in Mount street and had to retrace fis steps to ‘+ & corner of ‘the road and ‘count the gaps that indicated doors. Toby rang the bell of his flat door. It was opened, not as usual by Jones, but by a tall young woman neatly + PUALALEPRMEEET PASHAT ERE As Heb. GSM MRD TTT ae write ti Ee TH th bbhe if MALE A A attired, hat and all, in conventional clothes. He started back for a sec- ond. The world could not be so be- fogged that he should mistake the door of his own flat. “I’m Ruth Tellifer, sir,” said the young woman. “Oh,” said Toby. “Of course, Thanks for letting me in. But where's Jones?” “I’m afraid Jones .has met with a slight accident, sir,” she said, helping him off with his overcoat. “Oh, nothing serious. A. sprained ankle, I think.” It was a simple story. . She had come up from the country to lunch and to go to the pictures with Jones. It was the one form of entertainment in. which he met the world on even ground. She was beginning to under- stand Jones she said. There was not much fog when they entered the cinema, but when they came out it was »>lack. Jones had stumbled on a kerb and either broken, sprained or twisted his ankle. Ruth, insisting on seeing him home, had supported him hopping all the way to Mount street. “I'll go and look at him,” said Toby. " Jones was in bed and Mrs. Baxter, the housekeeper, was in attendance, putting on cold water compresses. His face and hands conveyed abject apology. He could not have been more criminally self-conscious had he been detected in the act of pawning his master’s shirts. Toby told him not to we a damned fool. Their aero- graph for a damned fool is a sign known only to themselves and an Omniscient Deity. Jones did his best to obey Toby, who, having learned odds and ends of first aid during the war, diagnosed from the black, blue and swollen ankle no fracture. A nefghboring doctor would come as soon as the fog alldwed.. Meanwhile Jones was still anxious. How could Ruth; for whose security he alone was responsible, get to Charing Cross in order to catch a train for Seven- Oaks and thence how could she find her way in the fog for the mile and a half that lay between Sevenoaks station and her mother’s cottage? “Said Toby—how he did it I don’t pretend to know. but he did: “I’ve got people out of tighter places than this in my time and if you know of a more efficient com- pany commander you'd better go out and find him.” A Whereupon Jones apologized)\and Toby went back to the waitingsRuth. “It’s all right. No bones broken, as far as I can see. He's worrying about you and the fog. But I’ve taken charge. Sit down and let us s€e what can be done about it.” Their eyes met. They were four very honest eyes. Yet in each pair was a shadow of perplexity. Now, you may think that the problem with which Toby grappled, namely: how to assure the transport of an outwardly calm but inwardly agitated young woman, in a dense fog, from the West End of London to a remote Kentish cottage, is one so trivial as to be unworthy of the notice of the serious chronicler of human destinies. But the common- place resolution of this problem had a great deal,to do with the ultimate disposal of the Jorico fortune. I mention this with some emphasis, lest you may think I am wandering into a morass of foolish detail. So you visualize an apparently un- interesting situation. There's Toby, brown-skinned, brown-eyed, loosely clad in brown tweeds, lounging in an armchair. There’s a quite remark- able young woman, with the facial contours of the quattrocento Ma- donna and the biz bodily curves of a modern Atalanta.

LOCKE if an old soldier, suspected } I’m sure by my daughters of the be- ‘ / ginmnings of senile decay, may give a word of advice to young men, it is this: Never discuss anything with a woman, old or young. Either make her go the way you want or let her go the way she wants. Both ways lead to happiness. But the middle path is the most dangerous you can tread. You in your way and she in hers reach out, each to other, utterly absurd and unknown antennae of sex, which grip you each in all kinds of different ways, and then there's the devil to pay. = . . ° HE discussion lasted a consider- able time. The situation was one not devoid of interest to the disputants. Toby’s trained eye took In her lines and her grace. Ruth felt conscious of the power behind his easy charm and gradually lost her prim class shyness. “The est thing for you to do,” said Toby, “is to put yourself in charge of Mrs. Baxter, who will fix you up for the night.” “But there’s my mother, I tell you,” said Ruth. “If I don’t get home to- night she'll go out of her mind.” “There’s a perfectly good police force in England,” said Toby. “I'll see what can be cone with them.” He went out, leaving a greatly per- plexed and yet perhaps a trustful young woman. The tragic adventure with Jones in the fog had shaken her nerves. \The warmth and glow of the comfortable room. were gratefui. She told him later that she felt like a Stray cat some kind person had taken in and soothed with a saucer of warm milk. But even into this closely cur- tained place the fog stole insidiously like the poison, gas of which she had heard as a child during the war. The thought of facing its unspeakable terror dismayed her. Men and beasts, fire and tempests—with those she could cope. She was as strong as a dozen men and had a brain as quick aS any one. But she quailed before the 30 miles of fog over the unknown land between Mount street and her home, She lay back for the first time in the great leather chair and sur- rendered herself to despairing trust in Toby. I may here mention that Jones shad somewhat exaggerated ‘is mas- ‘ter’s heroic qualities and military distinctions. He could only convey to outsiders the idea of Toby’s im- portance by means of his swift pen- cilings, and if in order to emphasize his point he depictec. Toby’s broad chest covered with decorations, from the Victoria Cross down to a special constable’s medal, he is not too great* ly to be blamed. At any rate, Ruth was much impressed. When Toby burst into the room ten minutes or so afterward she sprang hurriedly to her respectful pose in the chair. “Don't do that,” he said. “You looked so comfortable. It’s all right.” He had got on to the police inspec- tor at Sevenoaks. Fog! There was a fog all over the channel. Trams were creeping about like lost children with no one to take them home. They couldn’t run for fear of bumping into another child. She hadn’t a dog’s chance dt reaching Bittle, the hamlet on whose outskirts she dwelt.

And Emma, the housemaid—it’s her night off—has rung up from her parent's shop in Putney to ask whether she can stay there till morning. So she's all right. And her room's vacant. Therefore, you see, my dear girl, God continues to reside in His Heaven and all’s right with the world.” And so, after a little desultory talk, he rang the bell for Mrs. Baxter. He changed into an old and com- fortable dinner suit and a soft fronted shirt and went into dinner with his father, more austerely attired. stood awaiting them as parlor maid, “Look here,” cried Toby. “It's very sweet of you, but I didn’t expect— didn’t want you to do this.” She smiled in her proud, turbable way. “I'd like to do it, sir, if- you don’t mind.” “But I felt. imper- * e * . io was a simple, well-cooked, well- served little meal, Toward the end Mr. Boyle said: “My boy, I’ve nothing to say against Jones.

Life, in spite of the world of women in which he lived, had its compensations. Ease of body and soothing of mind were good things. Any cares that afflicted the day lurked outside somewhere in the fog. Even Jomes ceased to be a subject for anxiety. The doctor had come and confirmed his diagnosis. No bones broken.

Gteadily death takes ite percentage of them. As a rule, though, these lost Ones have the consolation of a sure @nd unshakable religious faith. But a@ boy of 13—ah, there’s an inevitably geadder and—in this instance—an im- measurably braver tale. Michel Courtois is 13; he has been behind that curtain of mystery which shrouds adventurers forever lost in the north; by the merest chance and im the nick of time he was lugged from under its edge. That he was gaved is a miracle; that he remained gane through his ordeal of terrors seems even more incredible. After a long winter in the bush, after six or seven months of health-breaking gtorm and zero weather, of uncertain and often starvation fare, of unending tramping and toil such as trappers consider their business—indeed, view in imuch the same light as a city worker does his working hours at the office——Michel and his older brother were marooned without food or sup- plies.500 miles north of the fringe of Civilization.

His match supply exhausted, he kept a fire going jm a paii for six weeks; foregoing sleep lest the little, life-giving flame dle Out: carrying the pail throughout his wanderings. Perhaps in all the history of the North trere has been no more piteous, mo more amazing story than that of Michel Courtois.

For 3 years at least, David, father of Michel, and”. fre- quently called the strongest voyaseur Of the bush, has fared forth with the chill winds of each successive fall.

They would be along any time now; he had trained them well, But at that -moment Rene lay dead of starvation on the shore of the lake—dead of starvation and sacrifice that Michel might live. And 13- year-old Michel—Michel was 80 weak from hunger that he could stand only a few minutes at a time; no longer could he pull the trigger of his rifle. Slowly but surely he was starving on a diet of lettuce-like leaves that grew under water along the banks of the lake. For weeks he had existed thus beside the body of his brother, which he could not bring himself to bury. First, because in the terrible loneliness the body was all that was left to him of human- fiy; and, second, because Rene had died without the sacrament of their faith, and Michel felt, in his own words, that something should be said over Rene by the priests before he was put in the ground. When the Indian rescue party finally came up Lake Manicouagan on the afternoon of August 27, Mi- chel sat hunched before his tepee trying with fumbling fingers to grind an old fishbone into ane edible flour. He could no longer see clearly; By ALAN MACDONALD he stared vacuously as if at some figures of his own febrile imagining. Suddenly he muttered “Papa,” think- ing Jack Germaine, an Indian of Roberval, wae his father returned to save him. When the truth penetrated his enfeebled mind he burst into tears, and when they told him to go to the canoe he fought them child- ishly because they were not taking but were burying without prayer his beloved brother. Wise in the ways of starvation, the Indians said that if they had not reached him, Michel would have died in two days—at the outside, three. Themselves without food for the last three days of that voyaging, the Indians” brought Michel home. His 13-year-old eyes were those of a man of forty; he brooded in silence like an old, worn:man and when. forced to speak, he made statements strangely wise, like a sage. Some- thing came to him, the Indians said, out of the terrible stillness and soli- tude. For days he could not talk of his experience without dropping his head upon his arms and sobbing, ‘Silenced by memory; though he could not, it appeared, cry any more. Two weeks later I sat across from Michel at a deal table in the lone living room of the Courtois home. Curiously, I felt like a boy in the Michel Courtois, as the rescuers found him after five weeks’ actual starvation, watching over the dead body of his brother. tne eider Courtois found a message, shacks we used to build in the Jots back home. A _ squalid, satisfying coziness! On three sides were small- paned windows; a narrow front door, outside of which children and dogs played in the red gravel road and the pale sunshine. At the back two storeroom doors hung with faded red calico. A great, green-tiled kitchen stove, Narrow unrailed stairs angling up to the single family sleep- ing room, Dufflebags, snowshoes, axes, pots and pans under the stairs. Old photographs framed in wood; and a lithograph of the late King™ Ed- ward. The unpainted wallirack of yellowing newspapers, dog-eared books, and the tin tobacco box that serves the Courtois as a safe. * a * * ICHEL sat down slowly, question- ingly, His mother, who was French, was picking blueberries. His father, part French, part Indian, with a trace of ‘Scotch blood, had gone into the bush again, seeking likely hunting grounds for next winter. Michel rested because people said his heart might be affected. Yet he seemed sturdy enough now, about 5 feet 4, and weighing 135 pounds. His complexion was sallow~ rather than pale, which is not remarkable, since I saw scarce a red cheek in the north country. His windbreaker, heavy Kmee breeches, moccasin shoes and white wool socks worn like put- tees even gave him a burly look. But he held his lips tight, as though al- ways holding down emotion; and his brown, direct, brave eyes were haunt- ed and shadowed. They won at once your admiration and pity. e Cap well over his eyes, he listened while J. D. Lavergne, young merchant of Jonquiere, with me as an interpre- ter, since the boy speaks no English, explained that the Sunday World Magazine had sent me 1,000 miles to hear from his own lips his remark- able experience. Lavergne’s sympathy and interest were so deep that he had shut up shop and driven me 140 miles that day that he might see Michel. Slowly the boy lifted his cap; he re- garded me with an impersonal friend- liness and turned to Lavergne; I saw a bond of trust spring up between these two countrymen. Lavergne put my questions like a family doctor: Michel answered like a patient. Now and again the boy’s low voice broke, he buried his face; and he waited. . Thus Michel told his truly as- tonishing story in its entirety for the first and only time. Michel had followed his father sand brother, he; gajd,, info the Lake Mani- couagan’ region last: August—-thopgh they never had hunted there before* without the slightest premonition. Had not his father hunted all over northern Ontario and Quebec, each year in new territory, without ever being lost or seriously hurt? Could he not lift 1,000 pounds and tote 500 over the portages for hours without being tired out? And Rene—it was Michel’s greatest ambition to be like the quietly courageous Rene. From the head of the lake they laid their 130 traps over an area 50 wide that it took days to make a round of them, even with each going alone and taking a°share and Michel doing his work like a man, With his pet dog, one of the pair they took along, the boy snowshoed along over countless miles alone. By Janu- ary their food ran short affd they dropped down the Peribonca to a cache where a fur trader had left more supplies. They had only $160 worth of furs, for the game had been disappointing. Intent on making up for this failure, they hurried back, By March, their food again exhausted, they returned to the cache. It was ‘étnpty. The trader had failed them, In the dead of winter, without food, ee ——— —_—_—-— -—-- OS - — = ee ee —— — _ + —_ = - = —_— ~ — ee Se cut on a board, that certain Indians —unaoccountable nomads of the forest —would be there in four days. He de- cided to wait. A week passed, then two. The Courtois were starving. Yet without food they did not dare at- tempt the 350-mile journey through the frozen, snoW-piled forests to civili- gation. They dug through ice 8 feet thick—to catch only three little fish. They snared a lone biack squirrel; found and devoured a fish- head left by Indians. One dog died of starvation, and finally David killed the other—Michel'’s pet—for food Michel hugged the dog a last time— but, as he said, what else was there to do? . : Nineteen days later the Indians ap- peared. They had food and shared it. In a few days the Courtois were strong and confident again. The Indians sold them 120 pounds of fiour, 30 pounds of moose and half a beaver. Incredible as it seems, jhe Courtois did not even think of leav- ing the bush. The father sent the boys back to Lake Manicouagan while he pushed into another region; they might yet get enough pelts to make a success of this year of failure. They would meet again at the rendezvous June 21 and start home. He gave them all but 10 pounds of the flour. He was sure that hunting would im- prove on the lake; unbelievable as it seems, he gad never a thought for what might happen if it did not. But Rene and Michel found that a strangé blight lay over the land of Lake Manicouagan* The beaver, mink, otter, even the muskrat, had disappeared. Neither were’ there wolves, bear or foxes, the usual deni- zens of the northern wilds. The twa boys were mystified, baffled. They ate as little of their meager supplies” as possible, but it was of no avail. . ¢ . . HE game did not return—and by June the two boys consumed the last bit of flour, the dregs of the tea bag, even the salt. They began count- ing their matches. Still, with amaz- ing courage, they continued to make aty rounds of the traps. . Day after cay they found these empty in the clear, chill sunshine. Even so, Michel was not afraid. His father never re- turned home until summer, and Bene said nothing to show he was worried. By this time they had been ten months away from home in the woods without.a single comfort of the sort that you and I think indis- pensable. On the round of the traps the boys took small tents and blankets. They camped where night overtook them. One day when Michel returned “to the lake he found that Rene had left his tent behind. Suddenly it dawned on him that Rene looked wan and thin. He was secretly alarmed. They dined that night on fish, caught in the nets they set in the lake, and some yellow nutritionless fruit Michel gathered in the forest. Rene’s cour- age, Michel found, was undaunted: he was even cheerful; he would get the tent next day. Michel kept his tongue—but he knew how he himself felt, weak, easily tiring, with mo- ments of failing vision; he thought thén that if relief did not soo ‘come they both would perisii. ‘But the taci- turn Rene was so confident, so brave, Michel could not bring him- Self to utter the fear that lived in both their young minds. Instead they talked of Jlome, the parish, the big church at Roberval. * * .* Michel carried on with amazing courage. But one day, when Rene had gone, he left his own tent be- hind. He told himself it was because he could go further without the bur- den, cover more traps. That night he Slept on the ground—the deep sleep of exhaustion—and awoke ravenous- ly hungry. There was nothing in the traps! Munching Indian potatoes, a small, white carrot of the wilds, he plodded to camp. Perhaps there would be fish! Rene, squatting be- Side the lake, gave Michel a strange, quick look. Then with a laugh he pointed to the nets. There were no fish. ‘The cord was rotting; the big fish broke through at will, and the little ones slipped through the holes. The yel- low fruit had dwindled and vanished as quickly as it ripened, in the true mood of the North. Rene gathered “leaved of the rock,” the submerged lettuce that grew along the lake bank. That was all they ate that day. a ee a ee a a ee ee ee ee ee ee

With sunset they crept to bed, lying close together for warmth. Michel remembered well the next awakening. It was after mid-June; they knew, because they kept track of the days, memorizing the suc- cessive dates, saying. “Yesterday was June 18; today is the 19th,” and 4o on. That day Rene told Michel not to go to the traps; they were, he said, both weak beyotid all safety; One might drop in the forest ahd be unable to return. Michel bravely protested that he felt strong, urged . there might be meat in the traps. Rene shook his head. It was time they set out to meet their father, but he did not see how they could make it. They were not strong enough to take the canoe, to say nothing of the traps and furs—about $300 worth—over the 25 miles of portage that must be traversed... No, they: must husband their remaining strength; when they did not: reach the rendezvous on June 21 ‘their father would understand.and come for them. Allowing a week’s wait- ing, Rene figured the elder Courtois could get to Lake EAD OERE about July 9. ° ° . * sh apate! waited—their faith in their father at once wonderful. and piteous, as the reader will see—starv- ing patiently on leaves of the sock. Occasionally the rottting: nets held a small fish, and they ate it entirely., Once a muskrat came with- in a few yards of the camp. Miche! seized his gun and pulled with all his might on the trigger. It did noi move; he had not strength enough to budge it. He shoved the gun into Rene’s hands, but the muskrat escaped. Michel cried with heart- break; Rene comforted him. Thai afternoon Rene managed to drive a nail in the end of a stick and to file the head sharp on a rock, making a spear with which they might kill fish. Taking an’ old« pail, he drove holes in the side near the bottem In this he built a fire and told Miche) never to let it die. For weeks he had. carried in his pockets their dwindling supply of.~matches. Now he revealed with a grimness he could not conceal from little Michel that they had but three left. He wrap- ped these in oilskin and carefully put them away. No victim of war or nature ever was. caught in a more jinexorab-e, more insidious circle of approaching death than were those two valiant boys. On their poor fare they grew steadily weaker; and as they did they caught fewer fish, were able to gather less leaves of the rock. Finally they must rest between casts of the spear; and then they could not cast it accu- rately or powerfully enough to hit the most sluggish target! Still, from habit, little Michel looked to Rene with confidence and found the com- fort of dependence. Rene seemed al- ways to think and say nothing, which, say what you will, inspires confidence. Surely, they both agreed, the animals would return soon; it was summer; they must come into the sun. Then, as poor Michel explained, something. began to happen to Rene. One night—Michel thought it was the fifth or sixth of June—Rene, lying jn the tent, the fitful flare in the pail throwing weird uncertain shadows, began to talk dreamily of home. The same stars that shone above them, he said, were reflected in Lake Saint John lam must write their fathe Se ith pitiful | effort he scribbled, this oy: . “Mr. D. Courtois, “Tt am writing you these few words to give you some of our news. We have had no flour since the beginning of June.

Good night to al the family at home. “Rene and Michel.” The disposal of this letter was, per- haps, one of the most pitiful of inci- dents. Michel had wondered what they were going to do with it, and when Rene told him to stick it .in their’ luggage he was puzzled. That night he lay awake wondering. Could it be that Rene, while he said’ noth- ing about what was in his mind, de- signed this letter to be found after they were dead? He longed to ask, but the strong reticence of his race held the sensitive boy silent. Rene fascinated him, though; the older brother seemed to move in a daze, and Michel felt sure, surprising as it was to him, that he was stronger now than Rene and he.tried to help. No father or mother can fail to feel a.warmth, of heart in considering Michel Courtois at this time.

It was Michel who gathered most leaves of the rock. At night they talked in the great silence, figuring the chances of when their father would arrive and wondering what luck he had had with game. ' Rene did most of the talking, of course, and it began to dawh on Michel that the character of-his: talk ; had changed. No longer was it of trapping and practical things that faced them; but of home, of brothers and sisters, of the church and lighted altars, the voice of the priest, of their father, of girls in Dolbeau, of the fair at St. Jerome. ... 7. a . e T WAS the night of July 10 or 11, as near aS Michel remembers, that Rene grew very grave and still and held Michel's hand. At last he said they must write another _ letter. Michel got the notebook and pencil, and Rene wrote: “Rene, Michel Courtois, “We are sending: you these few words before dying to wish you a good day, dear mother and father.” This done—apparently it was all he could manage—Rene explained it was written just in case they did die sud- ‘own emaciated breast. POST: _ SU! “Rene, we have not caught any fish. We shal] not eat today.’ No answer. Entering the tent, he tended the little fire and shook Rene gently by the shoulder. For the first time in all his ordeal he was trans- fixed by fear. Could it be that Rene was dead—gone?. No, no, not Rene— to leave him like this! Crouched, trembling, at last he forced himself to draw the blankets from about Rene’s head. He touched Rene’s . cheek. He . shrank — back; threw himself across the blankets.

Rene; poor Rene, had passed without absolution, without the last sacrament, and to Michel this seemed the most terrible thing of all—more terrible than the fact that he was now alone after months of harrowing privations, after weeks of actual starvation, and that he ‘could have, in the nature of things, only the slightest reserve of strength to keep from soon sharing Rene’s so pitiable fate. NDAY, OCTOBER 20, _he was not afraid. 1929. 13 him the sky was full of strange lights, a vast, moving curtain of wraithful beams thas seemed almost to touch him. He had seen the aurora borealis many timee, but never alone and with death so near. The forest had never appeared so immense, trackless and terrifying. Thirteen-year-old Michel stood his ground, but his heart broke. Suddenly, in his own’ words, he. was scared, scared as never before, but He cringed from the weird majestic light that seemed to reach for him, or for Rene. He, shrank back ‘into the tent and crept under the blankete beside his brother's body. Four days and nights Michel Cour- tois lived thus. WMunger would drive him, animal-like, to the lake, where he filled his stomach with the cold, clammy leaves of the rock. The gnawing of hunger—if not the hunger itself—blunted, his mind would again shoulder its full sorrow. His poor br@@ner! Little acts of kindness on Rene’s. part, their play as children would come back to him—and he would be overwhélmed by grief, would kneel and weep beéide the body. Should he bury Rene? This was a problem. He decided he would not; that he must keep the body until it eould be blessed for the last time. He did not know !f **'s would help Rene’s last lettér—just in case they should die, father and mother would know their last thoughts denly, so their father and mother would know their last thoughts were of them! He lapsed into a long silence and said, “If you ever see home again,” you will kiss father and mother for me.” Michel promised, choking down protestations they weren't going to die, that their father surely would come. Tenderly he tucked the blan- ket about Rene’s throat... he thought Rene ill, but not aboyt to die! The. fire in the pail sputtered and darkened and he hastened to re- plenish it. When he returned, Rene was asleep; Miche] crawled under the blankets and snuggled down, careful not to disturb the sieeper. With dawn Michel crept from the tent. Incredible as it appears, he did hot, he’ said, feel* badly; he ‘ had neither ‘headache’ nor: stomacheche, though for more than a month now he had eaten nothing, but leaves of the rock! Having examined the nets, he resurned and, passing outside the tent, called: ANCE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 11}. “Yes,” smiled Toby. “You can give Jones to understand that if he gets up before the doctor lets him I'll cut his throat.

Even then he had no thought of food. He did not care. He cried until he could cry no more. To sharpen his sorrow, as he knelt be- side his brother’s body, the convic- tion dawned that he was in some way responsible. Back when they had food ic seemed now that Rene had given him, Michel, the bigger share; and had thus undermined his own strong- er body and brought death to him- self first. And Michel had felt that Rene knew what he was doing; knew how much food he needed. If only he could have died instead. Then, too, Rene’s death became for him a matter of two worlds. Of this world and the next. Rene had died ret th e feet and to Michel, ren Ra NY whe Church fi ly" th £ ut at tent n. all life and thought, this was truly terrible. -What if Rene suffered for this in the world to come?

Good night, , sir.” “Good night. Hope you'll be com- fortable,” cried Toby from his arm- chair. He repressed an absurd impulse to spring up and open the door for her. But instinctively he obeyed a wise convention. A slight wave of the hand and a smile sufficed to convey Rene, but thought it might. We would keep the body, therefore, until his father came. Even now he had no doubt of his- father’s eventual coming—his father, who, sick and broken, had by then been picked up in the forest and sent home by a re- lief expedition dispatched by the Ca- nadian government to find him and his boys. Michel did not know that this. same expedition about the time of Rene's death came to within 50 miles of the brothers’ camp and turned back, not only short of pro- visions but convinced that both he and Rene must be dead: At last Michel was forced by nature to remove Rene’s body from the tent.

By ELISABETH E. POE. T: bloodless war fought in the tariff? hearings on behalf of classic literature was won al- most single-handed by the erudition of Senator Bronson Cutting who held his comrades spellbound by the fire of his eloquence on behalf of the works of tne great masters of old. Had a drastic rule passed the com- mittee America might have been the laughing stock of the worfd in regard to an overzealous censorship which would expel many of the treasures of the literary world from our shores. Censorship is no new thing, of course, and literature has had this Old Man of the Sea on its back al- most since the dawn of letters. Yet in spite of it, authors have continued to write what they have thought and defied often imprisonment and even death for the privilege. The common sense of the general public remains after all the safest form of censorship, and parents who have their children under proper control wil.have no difficulty in keeping books unsuited for their tender years from their book shelves. At the same time every proper pre- caution should be and: no doubt will be taken by the authorities to keep literature manifestly obscene and immoral, or. seditious, from general distribution. This can be done by ‘ local police regulation in the various cities. When it comes to “naughty foreign books,”” we might do a little home housecleaning in this regard. Some of the fiction which is issued from the presses of so-called reputable pub- lishers in this country is unfit for either the perusal of juvenile or adult. Compared to. this nauseous output, the classics and importations are indeed innocuous literature. It would be just as well to search for the mote in our own literary eyes before noticing the beam in others. Now that Ramsay MacDonald has come and gene, we may sit down in cemfort in front of a roaring wood fire and read comfortably his biogra- phy, “J. Ramsay MacDonald, Labor's Man of Destiny,” by H. Hessell Tilt- man (Frederick A. Stokes Co., New York), which made its appearance on the stage of literature about the time the premier was getting his baptism of ticker tape on the sidewalks of New York. Washington, accustomed to celebri- ties, Suceviinbed to the charm of this Scotch prophet ~om Lossiemouth at once. One of the reasons probably was that he is a man of the people, who, like Lincoln, raised himself from humble birth to high position in the empire. He has been heralded as La- bor’s Man of Destiny. Surely his ca- reer, as sympathetically told by Mr. Tiltman, bears this conclusion out for the discerning. The author has called him a “covenanter of modern politics,” and that explains him per- haps as well as any phrase, certainly in a land where so many of our men of destiny have been of the same sturdy Scotch strain. His biographer reminds us_ that there is a good deal of: the poet about Ramsay MacDonald, especially in his writings. Those favored with the chance of reading his “Wanderings and Excursions” will confirm this view. ; The political record of Ramsay Mac- Donald has been told again, how he rose to power through a skillful use of the art of protest and the ability to return political blow for blow. His creed for labor he set down once in a paragraphh which is well worth the quoting: “I want a labor govern- ment so that the life of the nation ®can be carried on; 1924 is not the last year of God's program of crea- tion. We shall be dead and forgotten and generation after generation will come, and still the journey will e going on, still the search for the Holy Grail will be made by knights like Keir Hardie. The shield of love and the spear of justice will still be in tne hands of good and upright men and women. And the ideal of a great fu- ture will still be in front of our peo- ple. I see no end, thank God, to these things. “I see my own horizon, I see my own skyline, but I am convinced that when my children and my children’s children get theré; there will be an- other skyline, another horizon, an- other dawning, another glorious beck- oning from heaven itself. That is my faith, and in that faith I go on and my colleagues go on, doing in their lifetime what they can to make their generation contribute something substantial to the well-being and happiness and holiness of human life.” “ Let us turn now to the latest pub- lication of another Scot whose name is a household word in this country— James M. Barrie, he of “Peter Pan,” “The Little Minister,” “Auld Licht Idylls’’ fame. Charles Scribners Sons, have brought outa neat volume of “Shall. We Join the Ladies” and three other one-act plays. As a play- wright, Mr. Barrie has as certain a niche as he has in literature as a novelist and these quaint plays add and certainly do not detract from his fame in this regard. The increasing popularity of the Barrie. play is one of the favorable signs of the theatrical times, all too dire, generally speaking. There is no doubt that one of the great reasons for the present decline of the drama is in the lack of real playwrights. In- stead, we have play butchers who stretch a slender idea far beyond its capacity to expand. More Barries to provide the vital material of the theater—the play—and the art of Thespis will once more assume iis rightful place among the fine arts. Meanwhiite the publishers have given us @ most readable book and deserve the thanks of Barrie lovers-——and’they are legion-—-for,ythe accomplishment. Just as Barrie sings the genius of his beloved Scotland so Flora War- ren Seymour hgs given us a saga of the native America in ‘The Stery of the Red Man” (Longmans, Green & Co., New York). She is a Washing- ton woman, the first woman to be appointed a member of the board of Indian commissioners. Through her gifted pen the pageant of the Indian appears before our eyes. We see the vivid moment of his struggle to keep back the rising tide of the white man through the only means in his power; the dignity, the wisdom and the statesmanship of some of the great ciifefs of yesterday are fully acknowledged. Heroic figures some of them are, too, Pocahontas, the savior of Jamestown; Sacajawea, the girl guide of Lewis and Clark, who is gratefully remembered by the North- west, and Pushmataha, “the white man’s friend.” Miss Seyinour also pictures the red man becoming. the American citi- zen in this day and generation with his automobiles, homes which com- pare favorably with the white man’s homes, sitting in high places in Con- gress and achieving ‘eminence in science, music, Hterature and art. A - splendid book, well written and with an evident desire to be historically accurate and to give the red man a “square deal” in every sense of the word. — It is a pleasure to welcome Hervey Allen again in the guise of a poet after a poetic silence, so far as books of verse are concerned, of five years. .

Whereupon a Paris critic wrote that the matter was not worth discussing. “If the volume was written by the king,” he said, “it is above criticism; if not the work of his majesty, it is below criticism.” o Many authors dedicate their books: children of poesy. The theme as well as the subject matter of his poetry it truly star dust, the material where-= of poems which last are wrought. The poet has a facility in. verse form which betrays the scholar's background. Whether he is dealing with the dramatic narrative or lyrics as graceful as a lily, there is the sure touch of the master and not the wob- bling uncertainty of the amateur in verse making. Space presses upon our best inten- tions and there is no room to quote one of Mr. Allen’s poems. Poetry lov- ers lose thereby, but, alas, there is no remedy. Heralded by favorable criticisms in England, “The Gocd Companions,” by J. B. Priestley (Harper & Bros., New York), an English novel of the open road, has received a cordial welcome in this country. The style is a little strange for American readers and is reminiscent of the Victorian writers with its multitude of characters, its elaborate descriptions and what at times seems almost undue dwelling in detail upon what are, after all, un- important incidents. The plot is good and is consistent throughout. The Good Companions are really jolly good fellows, and their adventures, merry and sad, thrill you with the humanness of it all. Miss Elizabeth Trant, the spinster lady who on a sudden impulse becomes sponsor and financial backer.of a troupe of thespians, is a cheracter who should live in fiction history. Not to have read “The Good Compan- ions” will prove one remiss. Another novel by an English au- thor, “Prisoners of the Forest,”’ by Sir Hugh Clifford (Harper & Bros., New York), is also winning its way on this side of the big pond. Sir Hugh Clif- ford knows his Malay Peninsula ag ido few white»men, and he has put some of the rich store of material he has gathered into the form of a most readable novel. He has placed its scene in Penang and the dark jungle . forces of Acheen. Reading his vivid pages we acquire a keen sympathy for these forest people, whose contact with the whites all too often results in their exploitation in some form or other. Sir Hugh has delineated an inter- esting character in Maurice Curzon, a soldier of fortune, who has sought to gather moss, contrary to the old adage, in many lands. Does financial independence on the part of the wife, and an ability to é€arn enough to contribute more to the family. expenses than the hus- band, make for. the instability of the spirit of the home? This question is propounded by Louise Platt Hauck in her latest book, “Partners” (the Penn Publishing Co., Philadelphia). Barbara and Grove FPairfax lived and were happy in a tiny apartment, but Barbara wanted to make a home for the twins and to have more com- fort. Se she started out to write stories with a remarkable deerce of success. The old house they pur- chased; and ‘in’ which they Nved with only a room or two furnished, soon became ean up-to-date, wel! furnished and well-run American home with Barbara paying most of the running expenses. Grove protested vigorously at first and then by degrees became complacent. Seon his ambitions in his business were atrophied in the pleasant lazi- ness of his cared-for existence. It be- came the old story. Grove took the ‘bearing of the burden by his money- earning wife as a matter of course. He even expected her to assist him in paying his club dues and to meet other obligations. The children loved their father and regarded him eas a pieasant and most desirable play- mate, but it was to their mother they went with their problems and to ask for material: things. It took some courage for Barbara to face the situation. She at last realized that she had probably come to the crossroads. If they took the road of ease and plenty and the con- tinued wage-earning and household supporting of the wife, the romance and the real pertnership element would go from their marriage. So Barbara cutethe Gordian knot. She decided not to publisn the book already accepted but to depend on her husband’s wage earning in a new position in a new place. With a high heart and high hopes and keeping her banner of self-denial and re- linquished ambition flying. Barbara faced a new life of housekeeping and homemaking to insure a iong life of oe and happiness with the man of choice. ====By W. Orton Tewson== “To My Mother.” Much less often do you find on the flyleaf: ‘To My Wife.” I have been told by those in a posi- tion to know, that when hardened criminals are getting a taste of the cat-o’-nine-tails—as they still do in England, for instance—they frequently call for their mothers, never for their wives, a * * Far be it from me to draw a paral- lel between criminals and authors, or mothers and wives. No, sir. But why dedicate at all? Some one has said: “It always seems to be perilously near an indecent soul exposure.” ° + e > I recall but one author who got around the mother and wife poser in hig dedication. He was Thomas R. Marshall, former Vice President—bril- liant diplomat if ever there was one. This was the amusing dedication to his reminiscences: “To the Two Women Who Were Uninjured in the Fall of Eden, My Mother and My Wife, I Lovingly Dedicate This Book.” ° « * o Oscar Wilde never forgave Chicago for the fun poked at him by the news- papers during his visit there on his famous lecture tour. Years afterward when Mrs. Reginald de Koven first met Oscar in London at the home of a friend, he demanded in a loud voice after the presentation had been made: “Where in the world do you come from?” “I was born in Chicago,” replied Mrs. de Koven, “There was a look of horror in his expression,” says Mrs. de Koven (in “A Musician and His Wife’), as he answered : “‘Never, no never; your parents have deceived your If ever a distinguished visitor—and, after all, as we know his work today, Wilde was distinguished—invited ridi- cule, that visitor was Oscar Wilde. Take his meeting with the news- paper men in Chicago. He received them at his hotel reclining on a buffalo robe, clad in pastel garments, knee breeches, and long silk stock- ings. Then while he sipped tea, he told them what he thought of Chi- cago. ¢ * e And this is what he said, in part. It is reported in “Chicago: The His- tory of Its Reputation,” by Henry Justin Smith and Lloyd Lewis: “Your machinery is beautiful ... Your newspapers are comic but never amusing ... Your water tower is a constellated monstrosity ... Your city looks positively dreary to me.” He closed his eyes at the mention of the stockyardsr and looked sick.” * * * In telling of his experiences on the lecture platform in America, Os- car Wilde used to relate that the week previous to his appearance at Denver a man had been shot in the very hall in. which he—Wilde—lec- tured there while he had turned -his back on the audience for the purpose of examining a chromo-lithograph. “Which shows,” Wilde would add, “that people should never look at chromo-lithographs.”’ * . * Then there is the. story of & party, at which Wilde was present, when the discussion turned on who really discovered America. An ag- gressive New Yorker repeated more than once: “I tell you, sir; that it was the great Columbus who first discovered our great country.” Wilde softly inquired whether a certain- Don Amerigo had not given his name to the continent just before Coiumbus discovered it. * . . * Still the New Yorker persisted. “I see,” sighed Wilde. “Of course, you must be right, though I fancy I can expiain the amomaly. Don Amer- igo discovered it first, but it was bushed. up.” . 7. * . . That W. 8. Gilbert, of Gilbert and Sullivan fame—was exceedingly touchy in matters affecting his per- sonal dignity is well known. He once complained to Sir Arthur Pinero, the playwright, of the rudeness of a barber who came to his house to cut his hair. “What do you think the imperti- nent fellow dared to ask me?” said Gilbert to Pinero—who tells of the incident in “The Eighteen-Seventies.” Pinero said he didn’t know and Gil- bert went on: “Why he said: ‘When are we to expect anything further from your ‘fluent pen, Mr. Gilbert?’ “What do you mean, ‘sir,” thun- dered Gilbert to the well-intentioned but unfortunate barber. “What do you mean by ‘fluent pen?’ There is no such thing as a fluent pen. A pen 1s an insensible object. And. at any rate, I don’t presume to inquire into your orienta. ahi: oa seul please observe the same reticence with regard to mine.” > * 7 . Which recalls the story about Mark Twain, who was being shaved by a talkative barber. Having completed the performance, the barber ran his hand professionally across the chin aud poising the razor above’ Mark’s face, said: : “Shall I go over it again?” “No-0-0,” said Mark slowly; “I've heard every damned word.” . * * = To go back to W. &. Gilbert: Sir. Arthur Pinero gives his version of @ very well-known Gilbertian story. Here it is: Gilbert, as a briefiess barrister, filled in his time by writing and be- came a staff member of Fun—Punch's rival. It was in Fun that his “Bab Ballads” first appeared. They had been offered to Punch and had been. turned down by F. C. Burnafd, the then editor. Gilbert never forgave Burnand and years afterward, when they met at a dinner party, Gilbert overheard Editor Burnand remark, with pride: “All the good things come to Punch.” ‘Then why the devil don’t you print them?” snapped Gilbert. * ° € e Contrary to common belief, George Sand, eccentric novelist, did not bob her hair as a defiance of the convea- tions, but as an act of sacrifice upon the altar of love. The ironic truth (revealed in her “Intimate Diary”) is that she cut off her ringlets in order to send them to her poet lover, Al- fred de Musset, hoping that the sight of them might melt his temporarily chilled heart. But her reward was criticism and ridicule. * od s * Another entry in the “Intimate Di- ary of George Sand”—made nearly 100 years ago—reads: “I’m glad I don’t care for spinach, for if 1 liked it I should eat it, and I can not bear spinach.” Wherein the great writer is no dif- ferent from a little fellow I know who came to visit his grandmother for the first time. As he crossed the thresh- old where his adoring relative was waiting to receive him with open arms, he looked up into her face and lisped: , “I don’t like spinach.” 7 ia * ad Daniel Webster liked nothing bet- ter than to laugh.

Benson in his biography of the great statesman, lawyer and orator) that ere once lived in the vicinity of Marshfield— Webster’s country place, south of Boston—a very irascible old doctor named Danforth. . ca + One day, happening to be at a fu- neral, Dr. Danforth bent down to the ear of an old gentleman and whis- pered: “It is a warm day, Mr. Jones.” Mr. Jones, being more than a trifle deaf, whispered back: “What did you remark?”’ “It is a warm day,” was the reply. “I am very deaf and did not under- . stand you,” whispered the old gentle- man. “I said that it was as hot as hell; do you hear that?” a * * I Webster’s hobbies were fishing and the enormously costly one of “prac- ticing the art of agriculture.” He loved Marshfield—which was near the sea—-where he raised big sheep, ig cattle and big fields of grain. °He liked to break an ear of corn in two (says Mr. Benson) and put the halves in the mouths of two fat steers. “I like to be out here feeding the stock,” he once said to his son Fletcher. “I would rather be here than in the Senate.” Then smiling a@ little, he added: “I think it is bet- ter company.” 7 = + It is remarkable (but not to a fish- erman) what an attra¢tion fishing has always had for statesmen. One of the most ardent anglers—Lord Grey—better known as Sir Edward Grey—recently told an amusing story about « London angler who, spending a few days in. the country, found himself unable to sleep be- cause of the quietness. So he arose and went. fishing. a * @ * As he passed the village church she clock chimed 3. “Talk about ‘em being up early in the country,” he selilequized. “This is where I put one over on these early rising birds.” Just then, turning a sharp corner, he came face to face with a farmer. “Good morning,” said the Loridoner. “Nice morning?” “Ay, it be,” said the farmer. “But if were cold first thing.” 2 <- . Another loyal disciple of Isaak Wal- ton's was President Cleveland. W. H. Crane, beloved actor, used to tell the story of a day’s fishing participated in by President Cleveland, Joseph Jef- ferson and himself. Thcy fishéd alt dey and caught nothing. About 6 o'clock Cleveland got a little trout, and Jefferson, who was ready to drop, suggested: “Now that we've got a fish, let’s go home.” , “You're the strangest man.” re- torted Cleveland. “Here we've been fisning all day, and jist as they be- gin to bite you want to go home!” (Copyright. 1929.)

I., am excellent school steered by two brothers, Merrick Lyon and Emory Lyon, now with God, I was compelled to learn and “speak a piece” at the general declamation exercises, held every Friday morning. On one occasion, looking through the pages of Monroe's Sixth Reader, with the object of finding some poetry worthy of my powers, I ran across a poem called “Herve Riel.” The author, of whom I had never heard, was Robert Browning; I liked the piece, learned it, and in my child- ish treble recited it. Thus I had the honor of publicly declaiming a poem by Robert Browning before he had published it, for it did not appear in any volume by him until later. He had printed it in the Cronhill Maga- zine in 1871, received $500 for it, and given the money to the people in Paris who were suffering from the German Siege. Browning, although he needed money, almost invariably refused to allow his work to appear in any per- iodical. His reason was rather quaint, He affirmed that he did not want people to read him unless they had made up their minds to do so, as was the case if they bought any of his books, But if they bought a magazine, and there unexpectedly found something by him, he felt they might be disappointed or disgusted. “There’s that Browning again.” ee ee | [William 7 Lyons Phelps 2 a mad 5 SS Sa SS |= - — — Se He broke his rule at this time for two reasons. The French were sorely in need of money to buy food; and he had discovered a historical in- stance, where, although the French had been defeated in a naval battle by the English, they had contrived to baffle their “conquerors, and so turn defeat into victory—not a moral vic- tory, but a real one. Furthermore, he saw an opportunity to add to the list of the world’s heroes a-man whom even his countrymen had totally for- gotten, Herve Riel, In turning over some papers in the French archives, Browning had come upon an account of a sea fight be- tween the English and French, on May 31, 1692. The English were vic- torious'-and were in pursuit of the French fleet, which was sailing south- west toward the mouth of the river Rance, at St. Malo, in the English Channel. The wind was off the star- board quarter, and the French ships were coming along at. good speed. When they reached the mouth of the river, with St. Malo on one side and Dinard on the other, it was low tide, and entry seemed hopeless, Then the pilots of the place came on board and counseled the French admiral to beach his ships and blow. them up so that they would not fall into the hands of the enemy. This seemed the best plan to the admiral, but just as he called out the order a common seaman spoke. Not only was he no officer, he had not even en- POST: aS ae eS listed; he had been pressed. But he knew the coast of Brittany like the palm of his hand—that indented coast from St. Malo on the extreme northeast to his home town of Le Croisic, at the extreme southwest of the proyince, at the mouth of the riyer Loire. He made the astonishing announcement that he could save the whole fleet. He persuaded the admiral to let him try. SUNDAY, OCTOBEK He took the helm of the flagship Formidable; the others followed in single file; the north wind, by the grace of God, held steady; and the entire fleet entered the harbor, sailed to the back of the walled town St. Malo, and anchored by the tower Solidor. Then came up the English fleet, and were as impotent as a dog gazing at a fugitive cat in a tree. They were so near they could see the French bluejackets thumbing their noses at them; but in those days there were no long-range guns. The French admiral turned to the common Breton sailor who had saved the capital ships of France, and asked him to name his own reward. There was a silence, as every one wondered whether Herve Riel would name a high office or a sum of money. What he did say amazed them. He asked for shore leave for one day, that he might go down to his Breton -home and see his wife. This was all he asked and all he got. The story, although it had been entirely forgotten, was literally true 20, 1929. v a SSeS SS Se =F NCH DEF EAT and | “ EREN CH VICTORY | except in one instance. The histori- cal Herve Riel asked not for one day, but for the rest of his life on shore. He wished to live with his wife in peace and comfort in his native town. Now either Browning had read the archives hurriedly, and made the error of taking the holiday for one day instead of what it was, or he deliberately changed the request— for Browning believed every man should work until the moment of death. In the last stanza Browning called attention to the fact that there was neither in the Louvre at Paris nor in any part of France any memorial to this gallant seaman; therefore his poem must serve. And it served well, for it is one of Browning’s most popular poems, and rescued the sailor from oblivion. .There was no me- morial erected in the man’s honor until the year 1912. Then, in double commemoration of Herve Riel and of the centenary of Browning’s birth, the house of Herve Riel in Le Croisic was marked with a tablet, and a magnificent statue erected in the town. An athletic Breton bluejacket posed for the statue, which represents the man at the tiller, steering the flagship, It is well worth while visiting to- day the scene of this feat of sea- manship at St. Malo, for it seems miraculous. It is best to go up to the source of the little river Rance at Dinan. There you take a tiny BS SS Sa es te Se steamer, about the size of a cigar, and sail down the narrow stream, sce- ing green pastures and old casties On either bank. It is a voyage of two hours Only, from source to mouth. After about an hour, the river widens nobly, and when you reach the broad place where it ‘empties into the sea you have (usual- ly) rough water, harsh winds, and driving rain. You cross over from the famous holiday resort of the Enz- lish on the left bank, at Dinard, to the picturesque medieyal walled town of St. Malo. Even at high tide, it seems diffi- cult to steer a fleet into that tortu- ous channel; and at low tide—well, he did it, and deserves his immortal- ity. At -the very mouth of thé river, looking out to the uneven sea, is a rock. At high tide, this is an island; at low tide, one can walk on firm ground from St. Malo to the rock. One of the greatest of the many great French prose writers, Chateaubriand, directed that his body be buried on the north side of this lonely rock, looking out to sea. An idea of his continuing and present fame may be gained from the fact that every day many pilgrims visit his tomb. The last time I was there it was low tide and it was raining hard. gi steady stream of pedestrians were making their way from the city of St. Malo to look on the last resting place of a writer of genius.

CRESS OR MINT STUFFING FOR ROAST SHOULDER OF LAMB (Bureau of Home SBtonomics, The slight peppery flavor of water- cress gives an unusually good flavor to stuffing for shoulder of lam); or if you like mint with your lamb you can try putting it into stuffing in- stead of 9 sauce or jelly. A shoulder of lamb has tender delicious meat, but ordinarily rather hard to carve because Shoulder blade and other bones. butcher will remove these for you so that the meat may be cut very easily. The pocket left by taking out the shoulder blade can. then be filled wjth any preferred stuffing. Select a shoulder of lamb, weigh- ing 3 to 4 pounds. Have the butcher remove all the bones and the fell. Save the bones for making soup. A iamb shoulder may be stuffed and either left flat or rolled. The. flat shoulder is easier to sew up than the rolled, and the pocket holds twice as much stuffing. Either of these completely boned, stuffed shoulders can be carved straight through in attractive slices. of part meat and part stuffing. Wipe the meat with a damp cloth. Sprinkle the inside’ of the pocket with salt and pepper, pile in the hot Stuffing lightly, and sew the edzes together. Rub salt, pepper and flour over..the—outside. If the shoulder has only a very thin fat covering, lay several strips of bacon over the top. Place the roast on a rack in an open pan without water. Sear for 30 minutes in a hot oven (480 degrees F.). If bacon is laid Over the roast, shorten the time of searinz so as to avoid overbrowning. Reduce the temperature of the oven to 300 degrees F., and cook the meat at this temperature -until tender. From 2144 to 3 hours will be required ‘o cook a medium-sized stuffed shoulder at these oven temperatures. Serve hot, with brown gravy. For mint or watercress stuffing you will need: 3 cups fine dry bread- crumbs, 14 cup fresh mint leaves or #14 cups finely cut watercress leaves and stems; 6 tablespoons butter: 3 tablespoons chopped celery; 1'!4 ta- blespoons chopped onion; % teaspoon salt; 44 teaspoon pepper. Melt one- half the butter in a skillet and add the onion ard celery. Cook for two minutes and add the mint leaves or the finely cut cress.and other season- ings. Push the mixture to one side of the skillet and in the empty part melt the remaining butter and stir in the bread crumbs. When they have absorbed the butter, mix all the ingredients together. When using Department of Agriculture.) watercress allow the Nquid which cooks out to evaporate before the buttered crumbs are added. Indoor Play. (Children’s Bureau, Department of Labor). Play material of a sort which best pleases children is at hand in nearly every home. The baby often finds more pleasure in a strimg of empty spools or a few clothespins than. in the rattles and bells which have come from an expensive toyshop. As the child grows, articles and materials at hand, if properly utilized, will give great joy. All sorts of paper may be wsed for folding and cutting or ‘for scrapbooks. Magazines furnish a wealth of pictures to cut out, to paint, or to paste. Crayons, paints, pencils and paper, and a blackboard will not only afford much pleasure but will help to teach the child to write and draw in crude fashion at an early age and help to train eye and hand without undue strain and fatigue. A printing frame and a supply of blue-print paper, on which may be printed the outlines of leaves and flowers, butterflies, other insects, and many natural objects, will afford hours of happy occupation to chil- dren oid enough to do such work. Wooden boxes may be used for stores, doll houses, forts, and the like, while chairs and tables will readily become horses, steamboats, stag and a thousand ~other things. cotton cloth, torn into 2-inch strips and sewed together end to end, will make yards Of-reins enough to drive the “coach and four” which is so easily created out of the dining room chairs. The most successful playthings for a child are those which furnish the material out of which he may con- struct his own amusements, rather than those which amuse him but give him little to do. It is well Known that many of the expensive mechani- cal toys are discarded after a brief acquaintance or are soon ruined in the attempt to find out what makes them go, because the child wants to do something rather than to be amused or entertained by a perform- ance in which he has little part. Among the mechanical toys, however, railroads and trains of all sorts have a perennial joy for all small boys. With the tracks in sections and the different kinds of carg and engines he is able to construct his own sys- tems according to his own ideas. Lead and tin soldiers, that can be marshal- ed to suit the will of théir general, are favorites, and also horses, dogs, cets, and other animals, ali of which lend themselves readily to many usés. All sorts of toy vehicles (such as wagons; carts, tricycles, and car- riages), small brooms, carpet sweep- ers, and other articles for doll house- keeping are adapted to play in which the imaginative element is most im- portant. Books, drawing, sewing, writing, and building materials all have their place, and many of these are at hand in every home. One of the best possible toys is a big box of plain, smooth, wooden locks. Cress or. mint may be made into delicious stuffing for roast shoulder of lamb. Pork Loin With Baked Apples. Because of their pleasant tartness, cooked apples are an acceptable ac- companiment to any of the usual cuts of pork—roasts, chops or sausage. The apples need not always be made into sauce, however. Sometimes serve them baked, or fried, or glazed. Or have an apple dessert. Other slightly acid fruit fiawors may take the place of apples for a change, fried pineapple, for instance, or cranberry. sauce in the winter months, or tart jellies like currant or beach plum. Success in preparing pork cuts de- pends on regulating the heat so. as to cook the meat well done to tie center of the piece and at the same time to keep-the outside from becom- ing hard and dry. Moderate cooking temperature is best after the surface has been seared to develop rich ila- ‘vor. It is neither necessary nor de- Sirable to add water to pork roasts during cooking. Hams, shoulders and loins: have sufficient fat on the oub- side to baste the lean meat, and so do not dry out when roasted fat side up at the moderate temperature in open pans without added water. For a pork loin roast have. the butcher crack the bones so that it can be carved in slices between the ribs. Wipe the meat with a damp cloth. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and rub with flour. Lay the loin, ribs down and flat side up, on a rack in an open roasting pan. Sear the meat for 30 minutes, or until lighily browned, in a hot oven (480 degree ‘Fahrenheit), then reduce the tempcr- ature rapidly to a very moderate heat (300 to 325 degrees Fahrenheit) and cook until the meat is tender. A loin weighing from four to five pounds will probably require from two to two and a half hours when these oven temperatures are used. A roast meat thermometer can be used with loins, just as with ham and other thick roasts. Put it into the raw meat so that the bulb refiches the thickest part and leave’it in during all the time the roast is in the oven. When the mercury in the meat thermometer registers 185 degrees Fahrenheit the meat is well done to the center. . a tee te Children’s Rompers (Division of Textiles and Clothing, Department of Agriculture.) When the child first begins to in- vestigate the world “on his own,” rompers are a necessity. A child does not have the best opportunity of developing his body and disposition if he gets tangled up in a dress and petticoat every time he starts to creep. The romper is the child's overall and can be worn by both boys and girls up to 6 and 8 years of age. It protects the underwear and- keeps the soil on an _ outside layer which can -be easily peeled off. This cuts down laundry without ir- ritating commands to keep out of the dirt. Select roomy garments with no tight bands. The neck, legs and belt should be loose. Tight bands reduce surface circulation and may be the cause of irritability and cold feet. Raglan sleeves or kimono sleeves with a seam on the shoulder allow the most freedom’ over the chest and around the armhole. A few gathers at the neckline are also ad- visable to provide fullness over the chest. The romper must be long enough through the crotch so that as the child bends it does not bind. If too tight it will not only affect the posture of the child but may lead to bad habits. Choose type suitable to age of child, When diapers are worn, rompers should permit an easy change and conceal the.bulky diaper. During the “in-between” period, when accidents still occur, a@ romper permitting a diaper as well as one which is at- tractive with other undergarments is advisable. As soon as the child can control his hands he should be trained to dress and undress himself. It is valuable training, is a safe occupa- tion, and develops concentration and pride of accomplishment. To make self-dressing possible rampers ans other garments must open down the front. Avoid novelties. Odd closings, bows, ruffles and collars do not belong on rompers. If the color is becoming and the cut of the garment is simple and pleasing, few decorative features are needed. Choose the right material. Cotton materials are the most appropriate as they will withstand frequent wash- ing. The child under 2 should wear soft, smooth materials, such as ging- ham, cotton charmeuse, cotton crepe, sateen, prints and fine broadcloth. The older child can wear suth sturdy fabrics as galatea, khaki, gingham, suiting, or poplin. During hot wéather fabrics which are too stiff and heavy should not, be chosen, as they do not * permit enough ventilation. ee . ; WT VHEEF tur box is easy looking. boy's rox girl’s roc Decide would |! prefer t some na terial th some br: for a fin packing to good true if y mellow days, w! used 60 You w of wood, given wi ' which m ing the smooth s CO: ship fron the level have to these sta down aga With 1 valley of six or e complete jected t determin through tains, th provided ficial ha have?

This particular design is easy to make, spacious and good looking. Although designed for a boy's room, it is equally suitable for a girl’s room or the living room. - Decide on the kind of finish you would like before starting. If you prefer to stain this piece to imitate some natural wood, and want a ma- terial that works easily, if you prefer some brilliant color of paipt or lacquer for a finish; then use whitewood. Old packing cases can often be worked in to good advantage. This is especially true if you have in mind the rich old mellow wax and oil finish of colonial days, when sound knotty pine was used so much. You will require the following pieces of wood, called stock. The dimensions given will be finished asurements, ' which means you must allow for plan- ing the stock to the exact sizes and smooth surfaces. Two pieces for sides, % by 9 by 46% inches. Fives pieces for shelves, 5g by 9 by 16% inches. One piece for head, % by 4% by 16 inches. ; One piece for under bottom shelf, 5% by 4 by 16 inches. Four pieces for stop strips, % by 1 by 16 inches. Step No. 1—Hand dress (plane) all pieces to given size. Step No. 2—Lay out the curved de- signs on a sheet of heavy paper; cut out the pattern, then transfer this pattern to the wood. Step No. 3—Cut out all curves with a turning or compass saw. Of course, if you have @ band saw, use it. With your chisel and gauge, true up these rough edges as near to the line as possible, then smooth out all irregu- larities with a cabinet file and follow with sandpaper. Bore the four %-inch holes at the top, being sure to bore from both sides to avoid splitting the Uncle Sam CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4. ship from the Atlantic Ocean up to the level of the lake. Then we shall have to build three or four more of these stairs of water to let the ship down again to the level of the Pacific. With the canal dug ‘through the valley of the’ San Juan River, the six or eight giant steps, or locks, completed, with Lake Nicaragua sub- jected to a hydrographic survey to determine a channel, a way blasted through 17 or more miles of moun- tains, the menace of the tornadoes provided against, and with two arti- ficial harbors built, -what will we have? One canal, for which we will have paid upward of one billion dol- Jars and which will be subject to the real, even if remote, threat of volcanic eruptions. The question naturally arises, “Is it worth it?” That is @ question im- possible to answer. Even *he wisest expert who has studied every one of the many bulky tomes containing Yeports On a proposed Nicaraguan Canal can not answer &. The facts are these: — | SAN ae wood. These holes are for detorative purposes only. Sandpaper all pieces smooth with No. 1, % and O sand- paper.

With a try- Square and knife, square lines on one edge of the two pieces to locate each Shelf. Now separate the sides and with a large square draw knife lines across the full width of each side piece, being careful to make a right and left side. Gauge down for the proper depth 3-16 inch. Clamp a scrap Strip as a guide along one side, slide the saw along this strip and cut to the depth indicated by the gauge line. Do the same on the other side. In other words, make two saw cuts all the way across and 3-16 inch deep. With a chisel and router clean out the waste wood. Take each shelf, one at a time, and plane to fit a certain dado. Mark this No. 1, No. 2, &ce. Fit the head and bottom pieces in place. Mark the dowel joints for the head and bottom pieces. Step No. 5—(If you have made the dado joint, omit this paragraph.) Use three round-head screws 11,4- inch No. 10 to each &ide of a shelf, or, if you_ intend plugging the holes to conceai the screws, use 1',-inch F. H. B. screws. Bore all holes in the sides with a No. 6 twist bit for R. H. B. screws. Screw one side to the top and bottom shelves first, then fasten the other stiélves in place. Do this on the opposite sides also. The top and bottom. pieces should be fastened in like manner. Step No. 6—Make a trial fitting with clamps and strips of scrap wood for protection against marring the surfaces. Now take the project apart, apply plenty of glue and clamp up tightly, carefully Squaring all shelves with the sides. Allow this work to set befween clamps for at least five or six hours.

It will take ten years or more to build a Nicaraguan Canal. In ten years, or fifteen years, will the Panama Canal be able to handle the traffic between the two oceans, even if it operates 24 hours a day? How fast, and to what extent, will ship- ping increase in the next ten to fifteen years? No one Knows, today. Increased trade with South America is a certainty, as is also increased in- ternational shipping. ’ There is, too, another angle to be considered, The proposed Nicaraguan Canal route would save -397 miles from New York to San Francisco; it would lop off 579 miles from New Orleans to San Francisco; it would shorten the distance between San Francisco and Liverpool by 386 miles. On the other hand, a ship can pass through the Panama Canal in 12 hours, while it would take about 33 hours to go through the Nicaraguan operated 16 hours a day. “more or less hectic existence. * tliag, Step No. 7-—Clean off all excess glue with a sharp chisel.

If a rubbed surface is desired, apply two coats, rubbing between coats with No. 00 sandpaper, and the last coat with pumice stone powder and water. A very satisfatcory finish may be ob- tained by using egg-shell enamel. If oak stock is used—Stain to color desired; fill with two coats of paste wood filler, shellac and wax, If knotty pine is used—One coat ‘of boiled linseed oil, one coat of one- to-five solution of oil walnut stain and turpentine, two coats of shellac and wax., If white wood is used and an imi- tation natural wood finish desired— Stain, fill: and shellac to finish de- sired.

Every girl and boy knows the robin. No one needs tQ tell us that it has a red breast, and that ite back is dull black. Mother robin wears a duller coat and’ baby robin weare a speckled breast. We all know that. Even though the robin Is well known, it is interesting. : We like to watch it getting ite dinner. Its meals are eaten on the ground, but like all of us it likes dessert with its meals and that is usually gotten from trees and bushes. If you want to know more about that you must watch it yourself for that iss the one thing that people complain about when they speak of the robin. They forget all about the good it does when it hope over the lawn, cocks its head to one side, listens, digs quickly with its sharp bill, and pulls out a grub or a worm. Or when it scratches the leaves, throw- ing up the bugs and beetles, and other insects that will come out from their hiding places at night when we are asleep. and do harm to the trees and other plants. The robin is with us all summer. It is about the first bird to return after spending the winter in the South, and about the last one to leave: Some times we hear of one Staying with us all winter’ If we go hiking during the Christmas hol- idays and make a list of the birds we see, we are very likely to have our robin on the list. As many as fifty and more have been seen in a fiock in this section during Christmas holidays. But we have to go to some sheltered ravine in the woods to see them. We say the robin goes. South, but it~has been seen time aisi again, every month in the year, right around here. You know the robin. Do you know its mest? It differs from other birds’ hests in that it is plastered ‘with mud. You can see the robin in «spring picking up wet leaves and mud, and then shaping the nest in a nice round bowl, afterward lining it with soft grass to make a nice place for the four’ or five pretty blue eggs. Mother robin will sit on the nest and spread her wings to shelter the eggs or the little ones from the rain and storm. Then comes. the busy time when these little ones must be fed. There is not much time then for singing. In .early spring Robin would perch On a topmost-branch and call “Cheer up!" “Cheer up!” but now he may have these words in his little heart, while his mouth must. be used. for carrying food and putting it in the babies’ mouths. The robin has a song and a nume ber of other calls that are al] cheer- ful unless he is frightened beeause he or his little ones are in danger, It is worth getting up before sun- rise to hear him begin the morning bird concert. Robins like to take a bath and make use of a pan of water both for drinking and bathing, if a kind- hearted girl or boy will put one up where they can get to it. Robins also like to have a table set for them on a shelf or window sill where they can come for crumbs, They like soft food. Look for the robin any time after the middle of February, for that is about the time when those return that have spent the winter in the South. having left about the time of the first heavy snows, when the ground is covered and food is hard to find. a (Copyright, 1929.)

THE WASHINGTON POST: SUNDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1929. -LITTLE STORIES OF GREAT EVENTS: CHAMPLAIN FIGHTS the IROQI = By RAMON COFFMAN, Author of “Uncle Ray’s Corner.” Samuel de.Champlain little real- | ized the far-reaching effect which would follow the skirmish in 1609 } in which the Iroquois learned the power of firearms. From the Journals of Champlatn, Ramon Coffman has gleaned the exciting aant of the episode which. is ‘ghesgrtes here. a os you had a dream?” This question is addressed to a man of middle age. a Frenchman by the name of Cham- plain, a bardy adventurer in the New World, and his interrogator is an In- dian Time and again the question has Deen put to Champlain, but hitherto he has denied any phantoms visiting fiis sleep. The Indians—-composing a $mall Algonquin war party of 60 raves—have ascended the Richelieu vet and are now in the long, nar- Gow body of wter destined to be called Bake Champlain. The red men listen for Cham- Plain’s reply, and this time he says: “Yes, I had a dream last night!” Eagerly they listen as he contin- fies: “I saw our enemies, the Iroquois, fm the lake They were near the Mountainous shore, but they were @rowning within our sight. When £ wished to save them, my com- fades would not let me do so—they gaid that we must let the Iroquois gie.” t This statement rejoices the war- fiors They say that it is a good Omen, and that the enemy will sure- go down to defeat. So far, no _ Iroquois have been seen; but there is every probability that they will be found. From time immemorial this beautiful lake has been the scene of bloody contest be- tween the Iroquois and their hated rivals from the North. As. the party moves into the southern end of the lake, where the enemies are most likely to appear, the canoes are paddled only during darkness with rests on the shore dur- ing the daytime. At last comes an exciting night. Passing around a projecting piece of land at about 10 o'clock, Champlain and his companions catch sight of a party of Iroquois! Loud cries burst forth from both sides, and weapons are made ready; but tke actual engagement is not to take place at once. The Iroquois paddle their canoes ashore, and be- gin to cut down trees. They are building a barricade. The Algonquins remain ‘on the but send messengers to the whether they water, Iroquois to inquire want to fight. “We would like nothing better,” i: the reply, “but we want to wait until morning in order to be able to tell friend from foe.” That time for the conflict is agree- able to the Algonquins, ‘for red men in general prefer to fight during the daylight. Ntght has its uses, however, and it is now employed for the singing of warlike songs, and the exchanging of insults: “You do not know how to fight!” “You are cowards!” “In the morning you wil all be Killed!” A very surprising” morning is in Store. especially for the Iroquois. and are eager to have them used against their enemies. Although there are only two white men besides Champlain on the expedition, great confidence is placed in the alliance. Morning comes. The Iroquois emerge from their barricade. They are not afraid! Their armor of cot- ton cloth and wood will guard them from missiles, they believe. The Algonquins move forward, and Taking deliberate aim, after placing four balls in his arque- buse, Champlain fires at an lroquois chief. Never have they seen the fire-shoot- ing weapons of white men. The Al- gonquins know about the weapons amid the wild cries and shouts of both sides, Champlain pushes his way to_the very front.

Despite the arrows filling the air he takes deliberate aim. His arquebus has been loaded with four balls, and two men fall when it is discharged. Meanwhile the whites in the woods aim and discharge their weapons. The Iroquois, always bold under the fire of arrows. are dismayed by this attack. The blaze and the noise lay them low in a mysterious manner. They can not fight against demons, so they turn to flee. The Algonquins pursue and kill Several more It is a victory for the men of the north; it is a rout: for the Iroquois. Rejoicing in. their conquest, the Algonquins show their appreciation to Champlain. He has made French prestige and power solid with them, and this battle will help maintain peace along the St. Lawrence River where other Algonquins live. Yet it is not altogether a diplo- matic stroke for the French. The Iroquois have long memories. They will obtain some of these fearful weapons during the course of trad- ing with the Dutch; and the hatred inspired by this defeat will keep the French from successful settlement of the region south of Lake Ontario and south of Lake Erie. “Champlain, however, does not rec- ognize the turn the future will take. He believes that he has given a whole- some object lesson of French power to the Iroquois. He is cheerful as he returns toward the settlement at Quebec. 3 Copyright, 1929.) 5" CONTINUED FROM PAGE 5. Against the pure food bill, which Was unsuccessful. Students and col- flectors of data on this subject who hhave recently published their find- ings state that there have been lob- bies in connection with tariff bills, with water power legislation, with the proposal to place an embargo on gyes, the so-called Mellon tax plan the Esch-Cummins transportation ill, the woman suffrage amendment to the Constitution, with legislation restrictive of the coal industry and lof the packing industry. But with few exceptions, the activ- Aties of those representing industries gpfifected by those bills, were un- doubtedly well known. The tremen- dous pressure by the railroad brother- fhhoods to force through the Adamson eight-hour law has not been forgot- ten, and the efforts of the Anti- Saloon League &e too fresh in the public mind and too irritating to many persons to have been over- flooked by intelligent and literate Americans. Within the last year there has been much publicity attending the investi- gation by the Federal Trade Commis- sion of the so-called “public utility lobby.” It was charged in the Sen- many Ate that one of the main objects of thet lobby—in-its Washington activi- ties—was to prevent an investigation by a Senete committee, -partly, no doubt, because the utility interests have no love for the penetrating and é@xtreimely resourceful mind of Sen- étor Walsh, of Montana. There was a lobby opposed to the fhild labor movement to the Consti- fution; another that worked for a re- peal of the Federal estate tax and there are always to be found in war and peace lobbies interested in the spread or the doctrine of the pacifist or those who believe in military and naval preparedness. There is no doubt in the mind of observers that the number of groups represented in Washington has grown in late years. and that ts attributed, in part at least, to the fact that other groups of opposite beliefs have undertaken to gain their ends in that way and*that certain organizations and associations felt that they, too, must be on the ground in the Na- tional Capital if their interests were to 0 properly protected. What is to be done about it? How many Oi the statesmen who may Viv- lently denounce the men who have urged higher duties or lower duties on certain articles in which they are interested, would’ violently denounce the Antisaloon League or the Wom- an’s Party or the Farm Bureau Fed- eration or the American Federation of Labor for asking Congress to favor them a bit? Many of these organizations use far more than the mere old fashioned art of button-holing members of Congress. They have organizations back home in the members’ States and districts They put out plenty of publicity matter, a little of which gets into print because it has some news merit in it somewhere. For the most part they are rignt out in the open about things, watch- ing every move made_ by Congress. The late Wayne B. Wheeler, of the Antisaloon League, used to sit in the galleries and listen to the boys talk down below. If he saw fit he cracked the whip, and more of them than would admit it Jumped in answer. Students of the question of lobbies are not alarmed about the manifesta- tions of organized groups in the Cap- ital or in the States, for that matter. In a country so vast and complex as the United States, with interests so diversified, the formation of organiza- tions that represent the thought and desires of a great many people who live apart may be very vital, not mere- ly to those groups, but to intelligent action in Washington. There is no doubt one school of thought’ in-—Congress which holds to the opinion that it does not need the advice of outside interests, Anless ous: Pk is P -ople T IS rélated of the late Queen ] Alexandra of England that she had such a horror of cruelty that when she was a young girl in Den- mark she would use only artificial bait when she went Ashing. On fishing excursions her brother- in-law, Alexander III, used to tease her by putting a live worm on his hook. Finally she refused to accom- pany him if he so mistreated the poor worms. Nothing is said about her attitude toward the fish which were hooked, their distress certainly, the same whether the bait was natural or artificial. Later, in England, she is said to have boxed the ears of a boy whom she saw tormenting a cat In Sand- ringham. But this was denied by her daughter, the Princess Maud. She said her mother would have been in- capable of such an act. “But,” she added, “I am sure she would like to have done it.” All her life the queen was a great lover of animals. On her marriage to the Prince of Wales (Edward VII) she took to England two turtle-doves which had been given her as a girl. Probably her love for animels, as well as her many other pleasing qualities, endeared her to Queen Victoria, who was passionately devoted to her dogs. At Sandringham, the Princess Alex- andra meade a hobby of collecting ani- mals and birds. In almost no time She had a regular menagerie, inciud- ing monkeys, bears, tigers, paroquets and other specimens. One of her greatest favorites was @ white dgve which had been presented Queen Alexandra of England and the dogs which she popularized as boudoir pets.. By PRESTON WRIGHT. to her by the women of Dublin on her first visit to Ireland. The menagerie proved to be too bothersome, so everything was sent to the London zoo. Thereafter she contented herself with her dogs and horses. Her kennels at Sandringham con- tained some very fine animels. Nat- urally all] were of pure breed. She was constantly receiving gifts of ca- nines. When she -went out for a walk, she was accompanied by a whole troop of them. She knew ail their names and with one word could make them obey her. Indeed she was _said to have a special power over both dogs and horses. ‘ Her favorites among canines were the white Russian wolfhounds, state- ly, decorative creatures well equip- ped to be the attendants of royalty, and fitting particularly well into any yicture of which the stately and autiful Alexandra was the center. Generally when out-of-doors she was accompanied by at least one of them. Indoors, she made the fancy Japan- ese spaniels, or Pekinese, her favorites. She established the vogue for these little animals as boudoir pets. Great ladies imitated her, and then others followed all down the line to butchers’ wives and chorus girls. Many of her handsomest dogs had their portraits done in oils and so were preserved after death. Others were stuffed and are still to be seen in the Sandringham kennels. Horses had as great a share of her affection as dogs. When her silver wedding day was celebrated her chil- dren concluded that nothing would please her more than a silver statu- ette of her favorite horse, Viva. This proved to be the case. a Few women of her day rode better than she. She knew horse flesh ex- ceedingly well, and, unlike her grand- son,-the present Prince of Wales, was never thrown or suffered a fall. A good idea of her expertness as a rider is contained in an account by Lord Ronald Gower .of her visit to Trantham during the first years of her marriage to Wales. Hunting was one of the diversions indulged in, and Lord Gower says: “The princess looked very lovely on her horse, King Arthur, and rode like a bird. Except hurdles, however, which had been put up in the green drive, there was little jumping. But the princess took the hurdles beau- tifully; she has simply no sense of nervousness. Returning from “the hunt after dark, riding through the wood where these hurdles were, she leapt them again, although both the primce and Stafford had avoided them.” Hunting never fatigued, Alexandra. Weathergwhich kept others away did not deter her. Often she would be the sole lady to turn up at a meet. She was equally at home on one side of the horse or the other. Once when she suffered from a knee-joint stiffened by rheumatism, with which she was long afflicted after the birth of -thé Princess Royal, she had her saddles made so that she could ride on the side opposite to the one to which she was accustomed. Copyright, 1929.) those interests happen to have views that coincide with the views held by members. The ideal manner for such Statesmen to legislate would be in the halls of a. mgnastery into which no one not belonging to the order ever would be permitted to penetrate. It seems doubtful if that school will prevail. It may make consider- able noise and furnish political argu- ments for the next Canpaign, but there are other statesmen who feel it is not derogatory of the wisdom of Congress nor a reflection upon its in- telligence to find out what business. men or laboring men or the women may think about a bill before it is turned into law. Students of the trend toward the recognition of group representation before legislative bodies declare that it has been found serviceable and use- ful in other countries and may well be so found here. They state that the term “lobby- ist” should not be taken in the old sense in which it is so generally understood in the United States. They have no patience with under- hand methods of influencing Legis- latures, but believe in open support of, or opposition to, measures in which groups may be interested. It is quite probable that when the show starts on Capitol Hill and the fireworks are .touched off, that the shouting will be directed toward those lobbyists, if any are found, who didn’t represent any one but them- selves, and ever were listened to. It will be easy for statesmen from one section of the country to lambaste the men who représent interests from other sections, and for the lambasted one to retort in kind for his section probably will have no interest in tariff duties in the first section. But the lobby hunters will enjoy © themselves and contribute to the gayety of what otherwise might prove to be a dull session. And in the end probably nobody will be hurt much. And it will be about as simple to stop organized group representation and action before Congress as it would have been to prevent former President Harding discussing legisla- tion with senators in the same four- some out on the Chevy Chase golf cours: or former President Coolidge talking over legislative prospects «at a White House breakfast of sausage and. hot cakes. cacap! up an “It's at,”’ h self, b tage speakc and i well f fee] t worth wheth tims end t Jauzh

When you put it om or take it off, do so gentiy. Besides lengthening the life of the hat, this detail makes you appear more mannerly to your lady acquain- tances. It will give you that touch, that suavity, that the hat crusher lacks. The derby; or bowler, if you talk like that, should be brushed every day, and preferably with a soft felt cloth. Be very careful not to brush against the nap, as doing so ruffles the fur and makes it look shaggy and sioppy. It is very difficult to get it smoothed back again. Silk hats should be brushed with a velvet pad and ironed by a silk hat expert. Col- lapsible opera hats should be col- lapsed as seldom as possible, no mat- ter how much fun it is to watch them pop out. Straw hats should be brushed with a whiskbroom, and sen- nits merely wiped off with water and a clean cloth. Keep your cap by stuffing it with tissue paper when not worn. People are careless with caps and indulge themselves by heaving them into closets or smashing them upon a rack. A cap deserves respect just like every other headpiece. Lay it on a flat surface and brush it frequently. 7 . > > EED you be told that the suit you are wearing is about the most important of your units of dress?

I have the sieeves Of my coat pressed, but never creased, as I find that not only does the-crease not aid the appearance of the coat, but it also impairs the life of the material. You will have a terrible struggle getting this idea over to your tailor, but prolonged effort should gain your point. When your clothes are not in use keep them in closets, chests or dustproof bags. Dust is the chief enemy of clothes, and “Clothes may make the man, but the man must also make the clothes.” away from it. Only recently have we Americans . taken to being particular about our underwear. For years we suffered un- der the delusicn that whgt went on underneath the outer man made no difference. Nothing could be more in- correct. lil-fitting uncerthings u«are uncomfortable and reflect themselves. Many a mean, noted for his quiet- ness, good behavior and poise as a social being, breake out in a rash of neckties that even his wife depre- cates. They are made to suffer the wise-cracks and gibes of the town. I am againgt this narrow-minded point of view. I believe that the American flair for color and fancy mney properly be expressed around the American neck. Go to it, I say; get that fawn- colored marvel with the yreen and yellow goblins prancing on it. Dry cleaners will renovate your old faver- ites and ciean them at a reasenabkle price. The work is generally satis- factory and will add many years to your ties. There probably is a shirt hospital also in your vicinity that will ampu- tate, graft, sew up. polish and mend your broken-down shirts until even your laundry man will give up the strugele and leave them elone. There is no longer any excuse for mutilated haberdashery. Like hanging pictures in an cther- Wise well-furnished room, a neat rair of shoes makes a!) the difference in the world to your get-up. A surpris- ing fact, but am important cue. Have several pairs of shoes and change on the style of leather, keep them well oiled or polished. And be sure your laces are not old. This adds to your appearance and aiso saves you the heart-rending experience of hav- ing them break when vou are tying your shoes in a hurry. When your shoes are at rest, keep them on trees. The question of what to do with evening clothes is primarily one of the care they require when not being worn. The answer to the problem. as you will probably guess, is to protect them from dust at all times, and to look after ther: often, rezardiess of how_-much or how littie they are used. Dress waistcoats. I find, «re much more apt to retain their style and neatness if they are hung up in- side out. The same protection from dust ap- “piies quite naturally to topcoats and overcoats, for either of these outer garments loses its smartness unless kept meticulously spotless. Another requirement is that they must be guarded closely from the ever-hunzgry moth. Before breaking out your over- coats fcr the winter, be sure and have them thoroughly renovated by a com- petent cleaner. I say competent. -be- cause a slipshcd tailor can clothes than can be readily sited here. An annual overhaul of vour ruin more cvercoats will pay prompt and sur- prising dividends.

But if a year went by without a parley on .the subject there would be a sensation of jumpiness in all cepitals. It would be taken as a sure sizn the brotherly love business had zone too far and that the various na- tioms could trust one another even less than usual.” Words and Music by Ramsay. ak gets promoting the next par- asked Dummer.

To listen to ‘em you would think they were both perfectly willing to sink their fleets and let any future war between ‘em.be settled by aged ad- mirals in a canoe-tilting contest or by a race between the secretaries of the two navies in outboard motor boats.” “Who's to be in the parley besides Uncle Sam and John Bull?” asked Dummer, “Japan. France, Italy and Germany have been invited, but anybody can get in who is sufficiently lacking in candor,” replied Senator Dumm. “No nation that is too frank and out- spoken is wanted.

Are they sincere?”’ asked Dummer. “They’re sincere, as biz nations go,” admitted Senator Dumm, “but what a first-class power considers deep sincerity wouldn't even pass inspection as complete disinterest be- tween one man and another. All the big powers are full of brotherly love, but they will always want the brass knuckles conveniently adja- cent in case of- an emergency, if you ask me.” “I see the United States has gone so far as to scrap the Mayflower,” said Dummer “There’s a gesture for you.” “Although you may not think so, the scrapping of the Mayflower was about as broad a move for world peace as can be imagined,’ argued Senator Dumm. “How s0?’ asked Dummer. “Nothing looks quite as unsafe as the average President all dressed up in admiral clothes, and the May- flower was the means of keeping this picture before the world,” explained the senator. “If the powers take to scrapping their navies what'll become of all the sailors?” asked Dummer, with a worried expression. been a mused Peace Parleys.

No young man is going to rush to an enlistment office and sign away the best years of his life to see the world when he can see it in ten days by stowing away on a dirigible. And then again, all this talk of naval limitations during the last ten years has made a boy hesitate be- fore joining the navy. He had said to himself, ‘Why should I join the navy when for all I know the fleet may be yanked right out from under me at any moment as a result of a few hud- dles between world statesmen. I want a job with a little promise of permanence.

Yale decides that the game is too dangerous and the cost too heavy, so she proposes to Harvard that both cut down the number of players.

It will complete my report.” This plan of Mrs. Owen to report in detail thus to her constituents is also being called to the attention of other members of Congress. Already queries are being made as to why those congressmen do not follow her The idea is quite disturb- ing. Perhaps there is little to re- port. fear an actual accounting. example. Perhaps the congressman may Anyway. there would be a great deal of bother in this going from county to county, meeting so many people and listen- ing to their tales of woe. It is much better that things should rock alonz in the old way. There is a third element in Mrs. Owen's program of service to her consiituents that has to do a!most entirely with these young people of whom she is so fond. She seems to have a particular facility for gettin: the viewpoint of youth. Her own house is always full of young people, which may have something to do with this. She has four children of her own ranging in age from 8 to 24, and two grandchildren. -In the Univer- sity of Miami she has been teachin’ young folk how to speak in public. These youngsters have formed a fvra- ternity which they call the Rho Beta Omicron, these being the Greek let- ters for her initials. Mrs. Owen will offer an award for citizenship to be given to one high echool girl and one high school boy in each of her eighteen counties. The award will not be based on mere scholarship. Other qualities will. be given consideration. Leadership, per- sonality, service will be weighed. Each county will be given a scheme by which it can pick out its most worthy. -boy and girl. Once they are selected, Mrs. Owen will bring them to Wash- ington as her guests. She will show them this Capital City. She will make it possible for them to‘see the Government in actual operation. “I want each of these 36 young peo- ple,” Mrs. Owen said, “to read the Declaration of Independence in the original in its gold case in the Con- gressional Library, and then go to Mount Vernon and walk in the foot- steps of Washington. them to see the-Supreme Court in session, to meet our President, to see the great dome of the Capitol against the sky, with the meeting of the Sen- ate in one wing of that great build- ing and the House in the other wing. “And then I would like. those young people, after a week of study of government there at the very fountain head of it, to go back to their counties and report to their schools and their local groups what a wonderful thing the government of a republic really is. I would like them to see the responsibilities of a gov- ernment resting equally on every citi- zen. I would like them to realize that we can’t have 100 per cent America when only 46 per cent take the trou- ble to vote. And I believe that the idealism of youth would be stirred by the picture of a republic and that we would have in*our district all of the fine enthusiasm of our young people directed toward real American citizenship.” Here, again, the old-fashioned con- gressmen fear, a thing may be started I would like : that will prove stupendously popular. There is danger that a demand for it may arise in their own districts. It would be no small chore to work out the detail of making up these groups, of getting them to Washington, of en- tertaining them while here: And yet if they refuse to do this constituents may be antagonized. The thing is dangerous. And this new congressthan has only been in Washington since the extra session convened in April. She has started this much trouble in so small a time. What may one expect of her as the years pass and she gets her stride? What will she not do in giyen time? Where did she get this idea anyway of making two chores grow where only one nourished itself be- fore? “And how do you like the post of eongressman after your late spring and early summer workout?” I asked Mrs. Owen, there in the small office that the Government provides for her in the House Office Building. “I can conceive of nothing else in the world quite so gratifying,” she replied. “Here I am given an oppor- tunity to do just those things that I would most like to do. I become a part of that vast. governmental ma- chine the purpose of which is to ren- der service to its people. As a part of it my power for usefulness is stu- pendously increased. I look about me all the time for helpful things to do and find new ones every day. I find that my possibilities for accomplish- ment are vastly increased by my offi- cial position. The days are not long enough. I must find out to what agency of government one should ap- ply to get them lengthened.” (Copyright, 1929.) a ——— = So - = SS ———— But finally they get down to figures and Yale proposes that both teams scrap all fullbacks over 150 pounds. Harvard dissents and suggests that both teams use fullbacks up to 300 pounds, but that they employ no centers more than 5 feet 11 inches tall and weighing in excess of 145 pounds, 9 ounces. Follow me?” “I do,” said Dummer. { Rack Field Man Blindfolded. éé wo they get together on this suggestion and put it up to Princeton, Army and Dartmouth. Princeton’ gives the idea a horse- laugh and proposes that they all scrap their ends and guaras and make one of the back field men run blind- folded. Princeton don’t care what happens, you see, as long as the quarter back position is kept intact, aS she is always strongest at that point.” “Then what?” asked Dummer. “They argue pro and con for a few years and then there is a big confer-_- ence at which Yale, Army and Dart- mouth, suspicious of Princeton, come out with a plan to scrap the quarter back and back fields and use only the » men of the line. There is another pariey on this and it winds up in a free-for-all. fight. much more exciting than any football contest ever staged.” “How can any one nation expect to get the jump on another in a war if both fleets have been equalized to suit each other in advance?” asked. Dummer, “There’s where the fun will begin,” said Senator Dumm. “As I- under- stand it, there will be no more clear- ing the decks and rushing out to attack another nation without com- paring notes and seeing that both Sides are well matched. No admiral of the future will be bum _ sport enough to go into action witha foe who is not his size.” “Before engaging in a battle each admiral will hand the other a list of all his warships?” asked Dummer. “Precisely,” said Senator Dumm. “This list will be sworn to and cerii- fied by a justice of the peace. But if plans go through in the spirit now shown,.I don’t expect that two major powers will ever send their fleets forth to battle without a complete exchange of data in advance, And there is al- ways much better feeling between two fleets when they can fight uhder con- ditions that are satisfactory. Most of the bitterness in great sea battles of history has been due to the fact that neither fleet wanted to fight under ths conditions and in the locality ' they had to.” Farragut Undiplomatic.

A Many Topics Open to Our Alert Writers, Artists and Rhymsters Dear Post Boys and Girls: Please do not forget that today is the last day on which you can turn in your essays on “The U. §. Navy’s Mission in. Peace Times” and “Theodore Roosevelt, Our .Twenty-sixth Presi+ dent.”’ Be sure and sign your essays prop- erly and have them indorsed by your Parents or teachers that they are your own work. No essay will be consid- ered in the contest which lacks this indorsement. ‘A fine assortment of Hollowe’en pictures, poems and stories have come in from oyr contributors. Watch for @ splendid Hollowe’en Junior Post! Here is a new contest fn which every boy and girl who reads The Junior Post may join.: It is “The Moat Interesting Thing on My Block.” Now, tf you live in the country your bleck will have to be the little com- munity in which you reside. A special prize of $1 each willbe paid for the best. 400 word story on “The Most Interesting Thing on My Block” sent in by a-boy or a girl each week. Let’s have a real race between the boys and giris for these prizes. Friendly com- petition is the life of any organiza- tion. So, everybody, boys and girls, walk .around your blocks, inquire of your friends and pafents about inter- esting things in your neighborhood end you will be surprised how many real treasure troves of information you will uncover. The most interest- ing thing may not. be a house or a building, it might be a famous Man or woman who lives on your biock, it might be the memory of a famous ‘event which took place there or it might be a clever animel or pet of some kind. Come on, Junior Poets, do. not stop writing just because the summer has gone. Fall has been the inspiration for many great poems in the history of mankind. And, above all, do not copy other poet’s' work. That is a mean thing -to do. It is found out, sooner or later. Many adults read The Junior Post and they remind-.the edi- tor of the true source of a poem when it is taken from the work of some- body else. Of course, that instantly disqualifies the boy or girl for mem- bership in The Washington Post Jun- ior Writers’ Club, too. We want only boys and girls in that club who play fair. Next week we will say good-by to “How Peggy Went to College” and “The Boy Aviators.” These serials have been very interesting, and I am sure the boys and the giris who par- ticipated in the contests got. enjoy- ment, training in composition and fiction writing therefrom. Wot all who sent tn chapters could win, of course, but-ali had the pleasure of striving to win, which is one of the great things of life.

As we look into the family dining room at Mount Vernon, the home of Washington, we must be thankful to the vice regent for South Carolina. We see the Heppelwhite sideboard, which is original, and all the -furni- ture is of antique form. The rug is from the period of Washington, and the handsome bress andirons and fender. In a corner cupboard may. be seen a reproduction of china presented to Mrs. Washington by the officers of the French fleet. An iron fireback bearing the Pair- fax coat of arms, stands in the fire- place. The clock«and rose jars were Lafayette's. A pair of pitchers, Washington’s wine ehest and two wine decanters. Oh, yes, and algo a glass, all of which are authentic, have lately been added, also a chair. The portrait of Miss Cunningham has been placed here. (She was the fourider of the Mount Vernon Ladies’ Association.) Next we come to the banquet hall. It wes personally planned, carefuily, by Washington, and this addition to the house was made in 1776, now cignified by the name of the man- sion. All the decorations are as George designed them. Of course, the freshness of paint you se€e today is not the same, for it was repainted in 1864. The mantel was presented to Washington by- an admirer by the name of Samuel Vaughan (in 1785). The model of the bastile is made from a stone (from the renowned French prison and was sent over by Lafayette in 1793). Among the original relics in the beautiful room are these: The ctock, candiesticks. aad vases, two quaint silver bracket lamps, a footstool from Washington pew in the old Trinity Church, New York, and paintings of Great Falls. There are portraits of Washington by Gilbert Stuart (very well known artist in Washington’s day), and C. W. Peale. on2 of which was recently sent over from Glasgow as a ioan. In a seperate room ie the well known kitchen. It bears. evidence, in proportions of its hugé fireplace with ponderous crane and bake oven near- by of what feasts were prepared therein. Many old-fashioned pots, kettles and so forth hang in. the large fire- place. Qn either side of the wails are several shelves with some of Washington's dishes and china. The smokehouse stands near and in the winter was filled with hams and meats for smoking. It had to be well filled because it also fed the servants as well as the guests and Washing- ton’s household. Mrs. Washington’s sitting room is very cozy and comfortabile-looking. It is said that the. card table and mirror ‘are of considerable interest and value. The silver candlesticks were once owned by Col. Wiliam Washington. a nephew of George: The four prints representing the siege of Gibralter are the very ones that hung in Mount Vernon in the days of Washington. The window curtains are of old-fash- soned type. A mahogeny chair pre- sented to Gen. George Washington by Lafayette is a recent &cquisition. A couch which once belonged to Nellie Custis hag been recently added to this unique, old-fashioned room. AUGUSTINE GUY TROIS. 2113 Fourteenth street northwest. Time. Our precious time!

Jim and His Picnic One summer day, Jim, Betty, his sister, and some of their friends went to a little island near their home to have a picnic. Among their “gang” were Joan Lee, a sweet girl who was forever being nagged by Priscilla Franks for her kindness to ali. The latter was a spoiled child of a widower. Then there were Dave Crawford, Joan’s cousin, and Herbert Jones, who was spending the week-end with Dave. As they were walking along, after they had embarked, Joan, who was last, stopped because she heard a low moan. Looking behind a fallen log, she saw a boy who had hurt his ankle. Taking her first-aid kit, she fixed his leg. “Thank you, mademoiselle, will you accept this as a token of thanks?” he said, giving her a hand-carved whis- tle. There is only one other iike it tn the world: 1 gave it to mg sister be- fore she was drowned.” : “Come on, Joan,” called her friends, and she said good-by to the boy. When Joan caught up with her friends, she told them of her experi- ence. She looked again at the whistle. Where had she seen one like it be- fore? They ate and played games until it was time to go home. Joan saw that Priscilla was missing and wént to look for her. After looking for quite a while, she heard a faint cry for help. Going toward the place where she heard the cry she found Priscilla had fallen ,down ,a hole. , She, could not heitp her up, so she bigwy hey whistle. s8q9n. she: heard @,s0ft “Hella,”’ and the boy she had helped came into sight. With their combined efforts they soon had her up, and, as the boat had gone, the boy took them to his house. He told them that he lived there alone and when they asked him his ' pPame, he told them it was John Le _ Blanc. Joan turned to Priscilla and ‘gaid, “This must be Marie’s brother,” and they told him that his Sister was not dead, but alive and well. The next and John started out for home. In a short time they had reached the opposite shore, and from there it. did not take them long to get home. You can imagine what great rejoicing there was at their*home-coming. John and Marte were left alone ‘to talk over their homecoming, and of course Joan and Priscilla were called on to tell of their discovery. “Why couldn't you wait a little longer, Joan?” aaked Dave, “we were just organizing a searching party to look for you, and it would have been great fun to bring the lost ones back.” “Well, I'm giad we didn't wait for you, or we'd have been there get,” answered Joan. That night there was great rejoicing at a welcome party given for John. HELEN DETTWEILER (age 14). 3645 Quesada street. Chevy Chase, District of Columbia. My Paper.

Ouch!” Ten or fif- teen rookies were being drilled. One of them began to cry. “Oh, poor little mother’s boy got hurt,” said some one from the crowd. “Yes, poor boy, he got hurt,” said somebody else, which set the crowd to laughing at the boy. The next day when Section C class was in art class the teacher said: “Students! I have been watching some of you in your work in art. Some do very well, so I have decided to give a prize of $5 to the student who can arrange the. best art notebook by the end of the year.

Miss Rogers has drawn a real plot in this book centering about the rivalry of two tribes of eagles.

Shag. is among those present, too, besides many other familiar characters of Miss Rogers’ books. This author knows that the boys and girls and the many adults who read her books want to know just what the animals and birds she writes about look like.

(Harper & Bros., —_——_— —_—- A CHILD'S GEOGRAPHY OF THE WORLD. By V. M. Ilillyer. (The Century Co., New York.) The seven wonders of the world and the seventy times seven interesting things to see in the world are told in a most fascinating story book fashion in this book designed especially for the child reader. Geography is not a study but won- derful fairy tales of great deeds and great sights and triumps of nature. The lessons learned from this book will remain in the memory through- out many years. Children like to be treated as though they had common sense. This book is written in simple words, but is not mere kindergarten patter but designed to interest the child who wants to learn and is curious about this world. Imagination and a sense of the beautiful are always taken as a matter of course in the minds of the child readers by the author. The .illustrations and maps, drawn by Mary Sherwood Wright Jones, are very instructive and amusing. Certainly The Junior Post boys and girls will enjoy this book as much as the 9-year-old to whom it is dedi- cated and who is quoted as saying, “I wish there were. a hundred more ‘lands’ in the world for you to tell us about.” CHESTNUT COURT.

The bear came slowly toward him, his small eyes glisening in the light of the moon. 4¢ first all Hallet could do was stare, then realizing that the situation required some quick think- ing, he looked around him for some- thing which could be used as a weapon.

On Saturday afternoon, October 5, at the Army War Carnival I witnessed one of the most wonderful exhibitions of stunt flying I’ve ever seen. It was put on by a lone aviator, Capt. Hunter, of Bolling Field. Capt. Hun- ter flew a Curtiss pursuit plane which is very sensitive to the contro!s, and therefore is excellent as a stunt ship. Before Capt. Hunter commenced his announcer told the crowd something about the way he flew and some of the things he’d done, By this time Hunter had arrived and was spiraling around waiting for SCouTsS. the balloons to be sent up. « He .“blipped” his. motor once. - That was the signal to release the. balloon, One after another the baljoons were released and every time Capt. Hunter burst them... Plashing across the sky in his little pursuit ship Hunter darted after the bolloons. ‘There was a little flash of fire and .the fragments would flutter. to earth. . The’ way he broke them was this, Diving down with the - motor full on he would catch the bobbing balloon on. either the wing. tip or sharp pointed propellor spinner. Or perhaps he would dive under the bal- loon. It would be. caught.in the heavy “backwash” of the propeller. and would spin crazily to earth. A swift vertical bank, or perhaps an, Immelman turn and he would be speeding after the next one. — One of the greatest thrills .in the whole performance came when she second balloon was released: - - This particular balloon seemed to mock Capt. Hunter. . Several times he tried for it and missed. It began bes settle to the ground... Turning his ship on a ten-cent piece, Hunter dived after the elusive prey. ‘Shaving ‘the tops of the tree he caught that balloon and burst it on his flailing. propeller. ‘He zoomed straight for the clouds and when the plane was almost stalled did a barrel roll and dived after the next. balloon. After the captain’s performance the announcer remarked that, in his opin- ion, Hunter was a phenomenally good flier. I quite agree with him. Don’t you?

Anne Proves Her Bravery. “Did you ever hear of such a thing,” inquired Jane Burwood of her chum, Alice Gordon, as the latter finished the somewhat exciting story. “No,” Alice admitted, “I never did.” “Nor did any one else,’’ exclaimed the other ‘indignantly. “Well, it can’t be helped;” was all that Alice would at that time say. As soon as she got home Jane burst into her mother’s room, her face showing great indignation. “Why, what is the matter?” in- ‘quired Mrs. Burwood as she regarded her cross young daughter intently. ' “Why that babyfied Anne Gray- son is going to camp, too,” burst out Jane “Well, why shouldn't she, léar, that is ‘what she needs.” “I wouldn’t mind that so ‘much: but she is going to be my tent-mate instead of Alice.” “Then if I were you I would make . the best of it and try to show her . how to mix in with the other girls.

It was with many mis- ‘givings that Jane went at all, as after she f-und that Anne was to be ‘her companion Jane had no inelina- tion to go. Now as a matter of fact Anne was not “babyfied,” but we. must confess ' that she was very timid. Although this was Anne’s first sum- mer at camp she did almost as well as.

The White House. One hundred and thirty six years ago in David Burns’ old fields that stretched from Pennsylvania avenue down to the Potomac, George Wash- ington laid the cornerstone of the first public building erected in Wash- ington—that beautiful white mansion at 1600 Pennsylvania avenue, James Hoban, an architect of great repute, got his idea for the White House from the home of the Irish Duke of Leicester, in Dublin, who had copied the Italian style. The first room through which visi- tors are shown is the east room, origi- nally designed for a banquet hall. It has eight. beautiful marble mantels, surmounted by tall mirrors. From the three great panels of the ceiling hang. the crystal chandeliers whose blaze of light, mixed with the profu- sion of gilding and mirrors give a brilliant background for. the gor- geously arrayed assemblages that gather there on state occasions. At the southern end of the east room is the green room, so-called be- cause the traditional color of its deco- ration and furniture. Here the ivory- like woodwork is touched with gilt. Next to this is the blue room, some- what larger, whose decorations are in pale blue and gold. Several things of interest ‘are pointed out to us in this room. First, the mantel clock, a present from Napoleon to Lafayette and’ given by him to the United States. Second, the fine vases which were presented by the president of France to our President at the opén- ing of the Franco-American cable. Third, President and Mrs; Cleveland were married here in 1886. The red room, west of the blue room, has a more homey look than the others because of its piano, man- tel ornaments, and many pieces of furniture. All these rooms open onto a long corridor at the south gpd of which in the state dining room: In this room, done in Colonial style, the prevailing color is a dull yellow, which lights up warmly under electric light. On-each piece of the table service is the coat of arms of the United States.

I will tel] you how I got here. About a year ago I was bought as a text book by a boy named Tommy. Tommy hated arithmetic (the thought of that made @me. sad), but it was true. The day that he got me Tommy dropped me, I can’t say ac- cidentally, onto the sidewalk, that I hasten to assure you hurt and as I had expected to be treated ‘kindly, I was surprised. From that day on I. was brutally used, often being left out in the rain and I owas illustrated with ugly faces and pencil marks. Then ‘one day I was given to another boy who tried to erase the marks in me and fix my torn leaves. He partly succeeded, for which I was very glad as I then did look a little better than I did before. I was nearly happy for many days and then, sad to say, his little dog Toxie got me and chewed me shame- fully, then I was no and was put in the ash can from which I am writing now. — That is all there is of my. story and I hope you have enjoyed it. Good-by. SUZANNE KAPPLER (age 12). 2101 Connecticut avenue. Initiation. All the “freshies” at Lee High were excited and who would not be when they were to be initiated and have dreadful things done to them to- morrow. Re Winnie and Margie, two of the seniors, went around to all the frightened newcomers and consoled them by saying that they would not scare them. To further assure the timid, Winnie announced that never had the initiation been as terrible as it sounded. “Freshman’s Day” came and the seniors did not molest the first year until the last 15 minutes of lunch period. But they made up for lost time since the freshies were off their guard. Margie pounced on Belle, ‘a freshman, and began to bind her hands. .After Belle was tied the rest were one by one bound and placed in a@ line and blindfolded. Then the sophomores brought out the soft, squashy tomatoes obtained for the purpose and began to pelt the help- less captives. The tomatoes disposed of, the seniors each took a “freshie” and whirled her around until she was dizzy. ee Next, cold water was poured down thetr backs during which they were commanded to stand perfectly . still and not murmur, if they did not, the whole - procedure was gone. through again. At last the miserable newe- comers were unmasked, and while the seniors laughed, the ‘“‘freshies”’ were very much humbled in spirit.-: BESSIE ANNE ANDERSON (age 14). ‘1100 Abbey place northeast, Notre Dame Academy.

THE ~ oneness The Result of Play- ing Hookey. (Awarded Gold Pin.) “Aw, gee, ma, I don’t want to go to school today,” sighed Edgar Bury. ‘I gang that I would go them today.” “You are to school, Edgar. Do you answered Mrs. Burg in a commanding voice. “School has been open only two weeks and you don’t want to go. You ought to be shamed of yourself.” Edgar took up his books, slammed the door and ran down the walk without even saying good-by to his mother. “I just won't go. I won’t,” Edgar said as he walked down the street. “I'll play hookey; that’s what I will do.” In a few seconds he met Bob com- ing up the street. “Hello, Edgar; I thought you were going fishing with us today. Didn't know you were going to school.” “TI am not,” snswered Edgar, still in his anger. “Well, what are the*books for?” questioned Bob. Then’ Edgar told him about how his mother wanted him to go to school, but he was going te hide his books and play hookey. Bob told him that that was a. good plan, so they went to the place as- signed to meet the rest of the gang. About 9:30 the six boys of the “gang” were on their way to fishing. The place where they were going to fish was about a mile farther on. To get there they had to cross a field through which a railroad ran, which you will hear about further on in the atory. When all of the boys were sitting on the bank fishing Edgar broke the little spell of silence by saying, “Ma thinks I am sitting up in that hot eld classroom studying, when I am out here having a good.time,” and lhe giggled at the thought. The other boys giggled, too, because their moth- ers thought the same thing. “We'll have to go just about time for school to let out,” broke in Jack. “s0 Our mothers won't think any- thing.” At 12 o'clock the boys ate their lunches by cooking the fish that they had caught. Then they sat down to fish again. At 2:30 o'clock. they started home. in’ time to get their books from the place they had hidden them. They hid their fishing lines and went home just at the time they were supposed to come home from school. When they reached the railroad track the train was coming. “Oh, look!" cried Edgar. “That will take so long to pass, it is so long.” Just then the train stopped to get Water, 50 the boys decided to crawl under it, which they did. Just as Edgar was crawling from under one of the cars the train staried to move. “Look out; she’s moving,” yelled Jack, but before he could say another word there was a cry from Edgar. The Moys turned just in time Ao. aee Rd r turn white. They gavesSaSToud, yell promised the fishing with going hear me?” for the engineer to Stop the train’ Quickly, which he obeyed. “Another tura of the wheel would have broken Edgar neck. The engineer jumped eur, followed by several others. to see what was the. matter. They at ence pulled Edgar from under the car. He was white and limp; he had fainted. The other boys ran about hollering and crytme for fear. They thought Edgar was dead. Ome of the men ran to telephone for the ambulance. In about fifteen minutes Edgar was ly- ing in the hospital and. the other boys were standing around looking very frightened. In-a littl while Edgar came to. “Oh!” what will mother say?” was his first cry. In a few minutes the door opened and in came Mrs. Bury. Her eyes were wet with tears. Mr. Bury followed her. He also was looking very grave. “Oh! Oh! I thought my boy was in school,” she cried as she threw her arm around Edgar. Here Edgar broke down and he told the whole story of how he had played hookey and went fishing. The doctors found that Edgar had a broken leg and therefore he had to stay in the hospital a iong time A month afterward, when Edgar was walking around on _ crutches, looking at the boys playing ball, he longed to play with them, but he could not. He thought about that morning when he played hookey and how the train ran over his leg and broke it, and now h had to walk on crutches.. Tears came into his eyes. He went back to the house and found his mother. “Mother,” he said, “I will never, as long as I live, play hookey again. I have learned a lesson.” His mother kissed him gently on the cheek. A year afterward Edgar was happy, going to scheol once more. But he 24 Spy a hookey again. f S Fie | thought of that day long ago ‘and ‘tears always came into his eyes. MARGARET V. NELSON (age 12). 115 Pourth street northwest, Char- lottesville, Va. anna ee OR-POST- SECTION Saint Alban. (Honorable Mention.) I am sure few Junior Post Boys and Girls realize who St. Alban was and how closely he is connected with Washington: To me the story of how the name of the first Christian mar- tyr of. Britain is a word known to many of us is very interesting. Alban was a Roman soidier serving the Emperor in what is now England, which was under Roman rule from 43 A. D. to 407. Alban worshiped gods, not“ one but many, such as Jupiter and Janus, and if he had ever heard the name of Christ it was only when an order was issued to kill any person who was known or s8us- pected to believe in Him, for until 324, when Christianity became the official religion of Rome, Christians were cruelly. treated. One day Alban’s. regiment had to defend themselves from the Britons who were always having little rebel- lions, and in the fight his armor was broken. As he sat beside the door of his hut, a man who wore the habit of a priest ran up to him, saying a mob was after him and if he were caught he would be killed, and he begged Aiban to save him. Now this was a hard thing for a Roman sol- dier to do. If he hid the priest he would probably be caught and killed, either by his officers for disobeying orders, or by the mob, for protecting a Christian. Alban. thought, and as he thought, something saapped . in his brain. Me suddenly lost belief in his old faith. He-seemed to-hear a voice speaking to him. He- took the priest inside his hut, and failing on his knees, said: “Teil me of your. master.” And so the priest told him, of the birth, life, death, amd resurrection of our Lord. Then, as he talked, the shouts of the mob.grew louder. “Quick!” said Alban, springing to his feet. “Take off your clothes and put on mine, and I will deliver my- self to the people as you, and you will go your way. telling others about Christ. and make them converts. “No! No!” cried the priest. “I can't.” . ; “Do as I say.” commanded Alban. “I want to die for Christ.” And so they changed clothes. Alban kneit at the priest's feet, and he placed his hands upon him and biessed him, then. Alban rose and delivered himself as the-priest. He was taken to a high hil, and with a prayer in his heart, a smile on his lips, and a light in his eyes, laid his head down and waited for the ax to fall. But the executioner, seeing his face and his courage, threw. down his ax, saying: “There is something in this man’s religion. I will not kill him.” And so, two martyrs died that day for the giory of Christ in England. Centuries tater in the city of Washington, Joseph Nourse, a close friend of our first President, owned a hilt overlooking the infant city. And as he read the description of the hill It is now called Mount Saint Alban.- He prayed constantly that a church would be erected on it. How fully that prayer was to be answered! Alter his death a church school was built his: f*Alban’s #ilt;"s j for boys, ani upper room was reserved for Sunday services. | His granddaughter, to help make his wish come true, did fancy work and when she died, among her ef- fects was found a box, containing forty gold dollars, and marked ‘For. @ free church on Alban Hill.” A fund was started, and St. Alban’s Church was started in 1853, her brothers and the boys of the school digging the foundations. Today, Mount St. Alban, named after that humble Roman soldier, is in the close of an. 1 Cathe- dral. Im the close are the National Cathedral School for Girls and. S8t. Alban’s School for Boys. The latter has a chapel known as the Little Sanctuary, where many Christian treasures are stored, which wilf event- ually be pleced in the great cathe- dral of St. Peter and St. Paul, which is being built on this hallowed hfil. | HARRIET K.

One of us will see someone elise and stop and say, “Can -yeu do this?” They will do something foolish .and-: say. “Ha! I bet you can’t.” Then your friend will try it and in this way be late for school. Is this not true? Try it and see! Our principal and teachers tell us of this habit and urge us to break it, because it ruims the record of our. school. Have you ever heard of a teacher being late for school? No, never!

Let’s all give a cheer, For the paper we love so dear. VIRGINIA GR AN (age 12), 437 Fifth street northeast. Sonia. Once upon a time many. years ago there lived an old fisherman with his only child, Sonia. Sonia was 13 years old. She was very pretty, with long, golden curls. One day she sat fishing in the boat with her father when she caught a beautiful gold and silver fish, “What a pretty fish,” said her father. “We will take it to the castle and the king ‘will give us a fortune for it.” “It is too beautiful to be eaten,” said Sonia. Just then they heard some one speak. Sonia held the fish to her ear and it said, “Please, pretty maiaen, don’t kill me; toss me back in the river and tonight at 12 come to the river bank and I'll tell you how I be- came a fish.” Sonia tossed the fish in the water. Her father was very angry with her, but she was his only daughter and-he seon forgave her. That night Sonia crept out of the hut while her father was asleep and ran to the. bank of the Ytver. The clock in the church steeple struck 12. Soenia was afraid. “Don’t be frightened, little maiden: I'm only a little boy. When I was 2 years old I strayed fromthe castle. My folks think I am drowned, but my motirer’s wicked step-sister put a- spell on- me and said, ‘You'll be a fish un- til some maiden sets you free. The only way the spell will be broken is the maiden must get your littie shoes from your mother.’ Mother will not want to part with. them, but she must. Without them I can never ceme to a human being.” Sonia promised she would try aad would come back the next night. The next day Sonia finished her work and toid her father she was going fer a walk. She went to the castle and begged to see the queen. Just then the queen came through the garden. “What does the little girl want?’ asked the queen. “Qh, fair queen,” said Sonia, “Gtve me your lost son’s little shoes and I'll make you happy.” At first the q-teen said.no, but she saw how pretty Sonia was and gave the shoes to her. Senia bowed and thanked her sad went away happy with the little red. shoes. That night she went to the bank and at 12 the fish came out of the water. “I have your shoes.” Sonia put the shoes on the fish’s tail and a beautiful boy stood where the fish had been. He said, “I can’t thank you enough for setting me free.” Sonia took him home and the next day they went to the castle: When the king and queen saw the lad they knew at once it was their lost son. Sonia told the queen about the fish and what was done. Philip toid the queen about his wicked aunt and the king ordered her put in e dark dun-. gean. | ° teat ta? The queen asked Sonia to live with . ug ‘i Popia, told her king told ’ ng her father, too. They all lived happy in the cas- tle ever after. ANNA SAUL (age 13.) Bradbury Heights, 5 father.
