WATSON POINTS OUT PEACE-MAKING TENOR Executive Suggests Three Commissions Be Set Up to End Problems. By CARLISLE BARGERON. President Hoover, apparently chas- tened by the Senate, yesterday. sent to Congress his message on the “state of the Union” that the most captious eould not seriously criticize. It was characterized by an avoidance of con-~- troversial statements and a highly conciliatory tone. And this was the manner in which it was received, There was a notice- able dearth of comment from either side of the House, either of a critical or laudatory vein. ‘Democratic, criticism was confined to expressions of regret that he did not elakorate upén his position on the tariff. Republican praise, on the oth- er hand, stressed jts conciliatory tone. This was seized upon particularly by Senator Watson, Republican leader, with a view to easing the bitterness that has existed in the Senate for many months. Held Suggestional npiilidaut.

Instead, the President pointed out to Congress that something should be done and, again, he stizgested his favorite agency, the setting up of a commission. Three Boards Are Urged. He suggested a commissiorr to solve the Haitian problem, a commission to study the country’s banking situa- tion, and a commission to dispose of Muscle Shoals. On the other hand, he suggested \ that.

"This was the nearest approach that the President came to setting off dynamite in Congress, but he - tented himself with simply calling Congress’ attention to it and asking it to see If something can not be done. From a préwar national de- fense expenditure of $267,000,000 an- mually, he said, this item of the ~ budget has now increased -to $730,- 000,000 for next year. Total Expenses Highest in World. “While the remuneration paid to our soldiers and sailors is justly at a higher rate than that of any other country in the world, and while the cost of subsistence is higher, yet the total of our national expenditures is in excess of those of the most highly militarized nations of the world.” Gack of what the President said is believed to be a cesire that economics be effected by ihe abolition of useless army posts and coast guard defenses.

Total sales on the New York Stock Exchange were 3,809,150 shares, compared to 2,513,- 240 yesterday. The President's message was highly reassuring to Wall Street, particu- larly the reference to his belief that general confidence in economic prog- ress has been restored. Furthermore, his urging the removal of uncertainty over the tariff and the facilitating of rail consolidations were pleasing. The day’s news contained several other cheerful developments, note- worthy among which were the in- crease in wages at the Ford plants, and the announcement of reduction Of $2,092,000,000 in stock exchange members’ borrowing during November carrying the total down to approxi- mately $4,000,000,000, the lowest level in two years, and less than half the record of of the end of September.

Two Measures Expected. Before the session is over, two measures undoubtedly will be en- acted into law, one to give the city a special enforcement act and the other to provide additional judges to re- lieve congestion in the courts.

Model City Desired. In his mesage Hoover said: “The District of Columbia should be the model of city law enforce- ment in the Nation. While condi- tions here are much better than in many other cities, they are far from perfect, and this is due in part to the congestion of criminal cases in the Supreme Court of the Disttict, resulting in leng delays. “Furthermore, there is need for legislation in the District supple- menting the national prohibition act, more sharply defining.and en- larging the duties and powers of the District Commissioners and the police of thé District, and opening the way for better cooperation in the enforcement of prohibition be- tween the District officials and the prohibition enforcement officers of the Federal Government.

COALITION DENIES VARE DELAY Reed’s Motion to Put Off Case One Week Is Lost by 43 to 31. NORRIS SOUNDS CHARGES (Associated Press.) Threatened with a filibuster, the Senate swept again into the three- year-old dispute over the right of Senator-elect Vare, of Pennsylvania, to a seat yesterday after voting down a move for a week's delay by 43 to 31. Senator Reed (Republican), Penn- sylvania, who moved for the week's delay, gave notice before the vote was taken that he would “feel com- pélled” t6 prevent a vote ori the ex- clusion Of Vare until the Senate has first received a report from the elec- tions committee on the _ contest brought against Vare’s election in 1926 by his Democratic opponent, William B. Wilson. That report is not in prospect before late this week. The Democratic-Republican Inde- pendent coalition, which has a ma- jority in the Senate on the tariff bill, lined up almost solidly against Reed’s motion, although Senator Nor- ris (Republican), Nebraska, one of the Republican independent leaders and the author of the resolution to exclude Vare on account of his cam- paign expenditures, first proposed a postponement until next week. During the lengthy wrangle over procedure the Senate agreed, on mo- tion of Senator Borah, of Idaho, an- other of the Republican independ- ents, to meet at 10:30 a. m. today and continue until 5:30 p. m. daily during consideration of the Vare case. As Senator Norris began his argu- ment against Vare on the basis of the report made by the committee which investigated his primary campaign and reported expenditures of more than $785,000 for his ticket, the Sen- ate elections committee went into session to consider a final report on the election contest brought by Wil- son. It quit long after nightfall to meet again today. The subcommit- tee which investigated this contest has never disclosed its report, but its members have indicated ¢ majority oppose seating Wilson. In offering to wait another week, | Norris told the Senate he thought the election contest should be settled to a vote on the question of Vare’s eligibility because of his pri- mary campaign expenditures.

COLD HAMPERS HUNT Clarion, Pa., Dec. 3 (A.P.).—Air Mail Pilot Thomas P. Nelson, of Plainfield, N. J., still was missing tonight as planes and men completed a second full day of search for him over the rough country of western Pennsyl- vania. Whether a heavy blanket of snow that fell since he disappeared early Monday had formed a shroud for him and his ship,*or only had prevented him from? making’ known his plight, if he escaped death, was undeter- mined. There seemed little likelihood, however, that he was far from com- »>munication facilities. Although the country is thinly populated in spots, there are no wide expanses without means of communication. The base of activities in the search by airplanes will be shifted from the airport here to Cleveland tomorrow. Nelson's fellow airmen who worked for hours in the cold and snow, back and forth across the country the air-mail flier was to have covered in his flight from Bellefonte, Pa., to Cleveland, ex- perienced difficulty today in getting their saips into air from the field here. Better facilities for warming up the planes will be available at Cleve- land. The snow, the searching pilots said, made it almost impossible to sight a grounded plane from the air, but, de- spite the chances against success of the air search, ten planes circled abdut from Brookville westward to near the Ohio-Pennsylvania line throughout the day. W. H. Maxwell, of New York, mana- ger of the National Air Transport Co., for. which Nelson was flying, and W. L. Smith, district superintendent of the company, were here aiding in the hunt. No organized ground search for the aviator was under way. There were scores of hunters in the woods, and upon these and farmers along the air- mail route the searchers depended for reports of the missing man. Nelson was scheduled to arrive in Cleveland at 2:15 a. m. yesterday. He encountered a snowstorm after leav- ing Bellefonte and apparently was forced down after passing Brookville, where he was reported sighted.

Sandberg found the print, which is only partial and apparently was made by the side om thumb, while ex- me od the weapon during: the aft- ern of October 13, 1926, approx!- mately fifteen hours after the fatal shot was fired. At that time the Police Department did not have a record of the finger- prints of its personnel, but such a file was started just prior to the ap- pointment of Maj. Henry G. Pratt as supeMntendent of the Police Depart- ment and was campleted during Pratt’s administration. The print has been compared with that of every criminal available to Sandberg, but whether the depart- ment expert ever has checked the print against those of members of the force since the file record was started is not known.

PLAN AIMED AT WASTE Chicago, Dec. 3 (A.P.)—Directors of the Américan Petroleum Institute today indorsed a policy of unitization of oil pools to control production and divided the organization into three major divisions, covering production, refining amd marketing. Sir Henri W. A. Deterding, of Lon- don, managing director of the Royal- Dutch Shell companies, in addressing the first full session of the cocnven- tion, urged creation of what he termed “an association of coopera- tion.” The unitization policy was recom- mended to the oll industry through- out the United States wherever prac- ticable. Where unitization was found impossible, it was urged that “every effort should be made to effect a cooperative agreement between the parties interested in the potential pool, to insure orderly and economical development and production and the prevention of waste arising from over- production.” The plan, if carried out, would result in the pooling of acreage by the various companies interested in cer- tain oll domes with unit operation The directors voted to appoint a standing committee to cooperate with other organizations in promoting the general adoption of the unitization practice. It was pointed out in the resolution that “unit development and operation of (single) oll pools secures the max- imum ultimate recovery of the oil and gas; the development of the pool at a minimum cost and economical proguction: the most efficient utill- friend of the j vation ‘of the hatural gas inthe pro- | duction of the oil and elimination of | its wastes; and, in general, the con- servation of the oil and gas and pre- vention of waste attendant on over- production.” The annual address of President E.

7 CEN IN OHNO "RED" ROW} | 11 Communists Post Bonds After Uproar at: City Council Meeting. LECTURES WILE BE.READ} Cleveland, Dec. 3 (A.P.).—Freed to- day on $100 bond each, 11 members of the Young Workers Communist League, who, with 21 children, were somewhat successful in “shouting down” a city council meeting last night, were facing charges of disor- derly conduct which will be heard in Police Court next Tuesday. The 21 children will be summoned into Po» _ lice ‘Court Thursday to receive a lec- ture from one of the police judges. Among the Communists put on bond were Lillian Andrews, 21;.Lila Dixon, 20, and Victoria Kentor, 19. Miss Andrews, less than two weeks ago,. Was convicted oh a.charge of criminal syndicalism at St. Clairsville under a wartime statute, and was a: liberty under $2,000 bond. The council meeting disturbance started when a resolution was intro- duced by Mayor John D. Marshall to} give the Boy Scouts organization a requested use of the council cham- bers. Miss Andrews requested the use’ of the room be given to the Young Pioneers of America; ‘the children’s branch of the Woung Communists” League, instead of the Boy Scouts. who, ‘she said, were “reactionary.” Then the uproar started. When of- ficerg escorted Miss Andrews and the other Communists from the room, the uproar was increased by the voices oi the 21 children, shouting demands for free street car fare for school pupils The officers had to remove the chil- dren also before order was restored.

SHOT BY WORRIED FATHER Man, in Marital Difficulty, Feared He Would Lose Son and Daughter. :|HE IS SENT TO GALLINGER CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. erer,” Dr. Rogers advised that the man be sent to Gallinger Hospital, where he was held under police guard last night for observation. Lieut. Joseph Morgan, chief of the homicide ‘squad, interviewed Pum- phrey there last night, and declared that the man was apparently unre- morseful and not inclined to talk. He refused to tell Lieut. Morgan where he had purchased the revolver, but said that he bought it Monday after his little-son had told him that Mrs. Pumphrey ‘had said she was going to buy a pistol with which to kill Pumphrey. The father, who now faces a charge of murdering his own offspring, de- nied that he had any intention of taking thé young lives, and claimed that after cracking some nuts for them on the back porch of his mother’s home, he remembers nothing. “They are with God now, however, and I am satisfied,” Lieut: Morgan quoted Pumphrey as saying. He also told the homicide chief that he had entered sult for divorce against his wife on the grounds of unfaithful- ness, and that the case was scheduled for hearing. next week. . Pumphrey said that he was employed at night in the shipping department of a Washington bakery, and formerly was a street car conductor. According to members of the family. Pumphrey and his wife, Mrs. Beulah Pumphrey, of 135 Eleventh street southeast, have been separated for about six months, and Pumphrey had custody of the boy and his wife that of the girl, pending final settlement of their troubles by the courts. It is un- derstood that a recent development in the court case led Pumphrey to pbe- lieve that he would lose it and also the custody of both children. Four .shots were, fired from the cheap .32-caliber ym, mae re- volver that was taken from mphrey, but an examination showed that each of the children had been: struck but once, The little girl was mortally wounded through ‘the head, and in her left hand was clutched a bunch of grapes that her grandmother had given her a few minutes before. a nearby radiator lay her little —_— bag, in which’ she had brought her books from St, Cecelia’s Academy, where she attended classes yesterday. The boy, also shot through. the head, lay crumpled over; face down- ward, near the large front win- dow. Coroner J. Ramsay Nevitt or- dered their bodies removed ‘to the Dis- trict Morgue, an* inquest will be held probably tomorrow... Detec- tive Sergts. Willlam Messer and Harry M. Jett were sent to the scene to in- vestigate pending the arrival of Lieut. Joseph Morgan. . Mrs. Pum was notified of the tragedy.at her place of employment at.a downtown window- cleaning establishment. It was learned from Mrs. Pumphrey that she and her husband met Sun- day to discuss their affairs; and: that they were to haye met again yester- day in’ an. effort to effect a recon- ciliation in the interests of the chil- dren. A note, datec November 25, was found “in Pumphrey’s pocke* from his wife, in which she _pro- fessed: her love for him and her de- sire for a reconciliation Prior to the time of. thetr scheduled meeting, however, Pumphrey called at his wife's ola home, at atin Capitol street, ands Seale Drummond og SS the eet abouts of Doris. Mrs. Drummond ex- plained to him that Mrs. John Teéen-~ nyson, of 135 Eleventh, street south- east, cared for the child during | oe the day while her mother was a work.

DECEMBER 4, 1929. ee ee ee | SHus DISSENSION Cinscliadory Tone Is Taken as President Outlines Views to Congress. — MUCH COMMENT LACKING CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. Federal prisons to rdlieve the present is 000 a year for rivers and har The next budget, when the Farm Board appropriation has been detcr- mined upon and taken tn, will some- what. ae the present budget, he made k The budget to be presented today will call for expenditures of $3,830,- 445,231 as compared with $3,976,141, 651 for the current fiscal year, bus the current budget includes $160 : 000 for the Farm Board, while he amount for next year has not yer been determined. Surplus Is Expected. In spite of this, and the increasec Federal building program which the President advocates, he anticipates a surplus next June of $225,000,000 ana one the following year of about $23. 000,000. This prospectus justifies him, however, he said, in proposing @ $160,000,000 tax reduction for this year. The frequently predicted reorgan- ization of the South Anmierican Diplo- matic Service, as frequently denied, seems certain in view of Mr. Hoover's statement: “It is my desire to establish more firmly our understand and rela- tionships with the. Latin-American countries by strengthening the diplomatic missions to those coun- It is my hope to secure men long experienced in our diplomatic service, who speak the languages of the peoples to whom -they. are ac- credited, as chiefs of our diplomatic missions in these States. I shall send to the Senate at an early bes the nominations of several such men.” : I. C. C. Changes Asked. The President recommended that the Interstate Commerce Commission be touched up so as to relieve the members of many minor matters which they now have to pass upon by giving them over to the subordi- nate officials. The Secretaries of War and of the In- terior and the Attorney General have too much to do, he said, to be able to devote the time that they should to the Federal ‘Power Commission He wants it set up as a separate agency and with power to ris bt interstate power, either by ment of the States through whieh the power is transmitted, or, failing in this, Federal regulation. He wants the Radio Commission continued, but its present regional organization discontinued and an or- ganization formed instead: that will have a membership representing: the entire country. but not so hamstrung as it is under the regional set-up. Chain Banking Discussed. The President’s reference to the ber banking system gave one Fas quietions aviees, he said, as to pennten dh the ae of chain or group ba d not dangerously ene, mer control..of credits. To some degree, however, he realized this expansion was an effort by banks for stronger support. Relinquishment by national banks of theif charters would indicate they are having difficulty meeting the competition of State banks, he said. “All these subjects, however, re- uire careful investigation and it ight be found advantageous to create a joint commission embracing members of Congress and other ap- propriate Federal officials for subee- | quent report.” Other Views Already Known. Most of the other see touched upon have been with Congress for a long time or ¢lse have been known to be Hoover’s views for so long that they contained no element of surprise. He recommended consolidation of the various agencies dealing with veterans and railroad consolidation legislation. He said he would send up the World Court treaty. at the proper time. There seemed to’ be an admission in Hoover’s message that he can not get_ anywhere with governmental re- organization unless Congress is will- ing to delegate him bignket mon agg with Congress, of course, keeping its finger on the matter. There seemed; too, to te w weaken- ing Or perhaps modification in his plan of transferring prohibition en- forcement to the Department of Jus- ‘Wants more money for the Federal courts with a view to relieving con- getsion.

As a matter of fact, though, influ- ence will not be needed. Both Sen- ate and House are overwhelmingly dry. and will not hesitate to vote fa- vorably when the legislation is brought before them.

Capper expects Mitchell to inform him as to whether needed and also to sénd him the outline of a —e enforcement act for the pper also said that he will con- sult with United States Attorney Leo A, Rover and Prohibition Cornmis- sioner James A. Doran. In the meantime, Senator Howell (Republican), of Nebraska, is going ahead with the task of drafting a local enforcement act. Beyond saying that he soon will be ready to intro- duce this, the Nebraskan yesterday would say nothing. Proposals Thrill Sproul. Representative Sproul (Republli- Can); of Kansas, who already has drafted a bill to give. Washington a drastic enforcement act, was thrilled by President Hoover’s recommenda- tions with regard to the District. “It was fine,” said Sproul, referring to Hoover's suggestion that Washing- ton be made-a model prohibition city. “Those were the words of a su atesman.” presentative Sproul said that he would want to talk to President Hoover and Attorney General Mitch- ell before he tried to push his bill. His bill is the most drastic ever pro- posed for Washington. Under its pro- visions, all liquor law violators would be sent to jail and the buyers of liquor would be summoned as wit- nesses when the seller is arrested. Howell Less Severe. The bill being drafted by Senator Howell, it is understood, would not be quite so drastic. Its principal pur- pose would be to empower all metro- politan policemen to make arrests for violation of the Volstead act, At present, only 38 members of the local police force have such power: the other members can only make arrests under the Sheppard act, which became a law before national prohibition, and which covers only driving while drunk, drinking im public and intoxication. Only the 38 members of the Po- lice .Department who have been specially deputiged by the Prohibi- tion Bureau can raid speakeasies and manufacturing plants. Wet Calls City Model Already. Representative Schafer (Republi- can), Wisconsin, a wet, declared that, judging from reports he had received from other cities, Was n al- ready was a model of prohibition en- forcement. He has lately been en- gaged in gathering statistics from the police chiefs of various cities in the country. “After studying the records of cities the same size as Washington,” Schafer said, “it is my conviction that the dry crusaders in Congress ought to try and do something about the cities in their own States before they start in on Washington. “Take the City of Omaha, Nebr.. for example, the home town of Sena- tor Howell, who would reform Wash- ington: is much worse than Washin , according to the reports I have. And so is Atlanta, Ga “Why pick on Washington?” Representative LaGuardia, Republican, of New York, echoed Schafer’s sentiment. He said it was typical of prohibitionists to pick on some city outside their own States. La Guardia Sees Easy Task. “Washington should be easy to con- vert into a model enforcement city,” LaGuardia said. “The residents here are for the most part good, substan- tial citizens. Most of them are home owners, and many of them are Gov- ernment workers. Also, there is a large section of the population made up of the elite in society. “Now, if there weren't a demand for liquor among these people, there woukin’t be a supply. .It seems to me that the confession of the Presi- dent that an almost hopeless situa- tion exists in the Capital is proof positive of the utter impossibility of enforcing the prohibition law. “The truth is that Washington 1s wet; always has been and always will be. After all, you can’t quench a city’s thirst. by simply designating it as @& mode] enforcement city.” Municipal Center P operty Bought. Two more plecee of property for the municipal center were purchased by the District Commissioners yesterday on recommendation of Maj. L. E.

QUALIFICATIONS SET OUT President Hoover saved the United States from a panic of fear, following the stock market crash, by his prompt action in calling a conference of in- dustrial chiefs and business men, Sen- ator Arthur Capper, of Kansas, de- clared in a Nation-wide radio talk last night over Station WMAL. The whole country knew that a drop in the stock market was imminent, Senator Capper stated, but “the ma- jority of the solid business men of the country, as the people of the great Middle’ West, knew alego that fear might paralyze industry, a6 it al- ways has in the past, when the crash came.” The speaker pointed out that while the people could realize that business and industry were sound and would not be permanently affected by the crash, they were afraid of the fear wake of that would follow in the such a crash. They dreaded “the con- tagious fear that makes financial panics, similar to the fear that causes an audience to jam into exite in case of fire, when if each one took his time all could get out of the burning building.” “This fear of an aftermath,” said Capper, “might easily have caused in- dustry to stop in this country for many months. Then we would have been just as bad off as if the stock market crash of 1929 had been as general a deflation as we had ten years ago. “That is where Herbert Hoover stepped into the picture, the right man at the right time.” Through his leadership in the De- partment of Commerce, Hoover was well equipped to deal with such a cri- sis as confronted him in the stock crash, Capper declared. “He knew what ought to be done to arrest the fear of the near panic; he knew who could take decisive and prompt action to minimize, if not to quell entirely, that fear.” The President's task was to impress upon the country collectively what the country individually knew: that legitimate business was fundamental- ly sound; that. merchants were not overstocked; lands not overvalued; manufactories not overproduced, and banks, as a whole, not overloaned, Capper pointed out. COMPLETION OF NEW BUILDINGS IS URGED CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1. to be erected opposite public build- ings and parks. Shortly after the reading of the President’s message had been com- pleted, Chairman Keyes, of the Sen- ate committee on public bulldings and grounds, and Chairman Elliott, of the House committee on public buildings and grounds, introduced an. identical bill authorizing an addi- tional $115,000,000 for the Pederal buildin rogram This on. would be used in part to construct buildings to house the War and Navy Departments on land near the site for the new Botanic Gardens and for an extension of the Treasury Annex. This last . project calls for the demolition of the Belasco Theater and the Club. In his message, pointed out that the President Congress buflding program throughout the country. Of this, he said, $75,000,000 was to be spent in the National Capital. In asking that more money be au- thorized both for national and local programs, Hoover said that this would be helpful in the present By maintaining a stable labor force in this city, he said, contracts can be made on much building economic. situation. more advantageous terms.

He was ac- cusec of iuring a diamond salesman vo the fourth floor of the South Wa- bash Avenue Bullding, but the gem merchant learned that the floor was | vacant and made a timély retrest. Another theory linked him with the shooting Sunday morning of Ted Newsberry, a North Side gangster, found wounded in front of a Broad- way cafe, Dut, like every other sug- gested motive, was only conjecture.

A very good idea of the state of the Uyon is conveyed by President Hoo- s message to Congress. He reviews me" relations and domestic problems and submits many recommendations. The message ought to be read carefully by-every citizen. The President is satisfied that the World Court statute has been amended io meet the Senate’s reservations and that all doubt as to advisory opinions has been completely safeguarded. He will accordingly send the protocol to the Senate for approval, with a special mes- gage “at some time when it is conven- jet to deal with it.”” It is well that this matter should be held in abeyance, in view of the crowded business of the Senate, because the proposal to adhere to the World Court will surely give rise to extended debate. i After recommending a tax reduction and referring to the economic situation and the improved condition of agricul- ture, President Hoover discusses the tariff. He repeats the recommendation , made last spring for revision that will relieve agriculture and certain indus- tries that are suffering from insur- mountable foreign competition. He arges Congress to take action as soon as possible, especially when business and agriculture are cooperating to min- imize future uncertainties. Mr. Hoover sees no real conflict between sections, since all are interlocked in economic de- pendence, and bound together in a soli- darity that can not be broken by any differences of opinion on the tariff. The President again asks for the preserva- tion of the flexible principle of the pres- ent tariff. A revision of the Mississippi flood control plan. in so far as it relates to the floodway via the Atchafayala River, is contemplated. Other portions of the flood control system are under construc- tion. As for highways, the President intimates that increased Federal aid should be provided. Enlargement of the public building program, both in the District of Colum- bia and elsewhere, recommended. The President-also calls attention f-the necessity for expediting railroad con- solidation. He weauld deal with the is 7 ee ll ioe apne: seit, hi at Ai es ——— ee ee ee ee eee MONEY FOR PUBLIC WORKS. Where is the money to be obtained with which to keep the Nation employed? Busi- ness and industry fall in with President Hoover's suggestion that, during the period of economic crisis, they concentrate their attention upon making capital improvements, and by utilizing their credit or by expending surpluses piled up for just this purpose they will be able to provide jobs for thousands. States and cities, however, upon whose co- operation the success of the plan for warding off depression depends, do not have sur- pluses as a general thing, so they must de- pend on their credit. In other words, they must issue bonds. A year ago, at the conference of governors held in New Orleans, the capital improve- ment scheme for fending off depression and unemployment was first advanced. Btates and municipalities, it was suggested, should build up surpluses equivalent to the esti- mated cost of Improvements over a ceftain period to be expended for the building of roads, &c., when indices showed a threat- ened depression. But such surpluses have not been created. A threatened depression has materialized without advance prepara- tion for coping with it having been made. For some time the bond market has been, at best, weak. During the boom attention was focused on stocks, and there was no attraction in bonds which paid only 4 or 6 per cent. With the collapse it was to have been expected that attention would be trans- ferred to bonds. Although this has occurred, the bond market can not vet be deseri strong. In the meantime, if the @fian r fending off depression is to succeed, States and municipalities will have to find a way to market their securities. The for a strong bond market eems to be one phase of the antidepression plan that has been overlooked. * In time, the bond markets may come back of them- selyes, but with the return on stocks at their present prices running as high as 9 or 10 per cent, bonds at 4, 4% and 5S per cent do not offer a great attraction to investors. The fact that bonds are absolutely safe, how- ever, is the big point in their favor, especi- when the investing public still smarts from [ts stock market burns. necessity ally now ae ee VETERANS’ COMPENSATION. Representative Mary T. Norton, of New Jersey, has set out to liberalize compensation to war veterans. Other representatives have manifested interest In the subject and it Is likely that a number of bills will be intro- duced at the present session. Disability which can be traced directly to service in the war is declining, but general disability among the veterans is steadily increasing. A movement is on foot to extend aid to vet- erans for all disability, whether {t can be traced to injuries suffered while in the service or not. A report from Frederick Gilkyson, ad- jutant general of the Service Office of New Jersey, shows that in that State 14,950 vet- erans have applied for disability compensa- tion and only 37 per cent of the claims were allowed. In 1928 only 22 per cent of the claims were allowed because of the extreme difficulty of connecting present ailments with injuries suffered during the war. ‘‘The hospital load is steadily growing,” he re- | ports, “and the ratio of uncompensated cases in proportion, making it evident that a further system of financial relief is a matter of absolute necessity.”"" Similar conditions, it may be assumed, exist in other States. Veterans of previous Wars feceive com- pensation for disability or age without re- gard to the relation of their disabilities to their war-time service. Veterans of the re- cent wat, however, have been awarded ad- justed compensation certificates which were not allowed to the older veterans. The situ- ation illustrates the need for adoption of a national veterans’ compensation policy. Con- gress will be tempted to deal with each new problem separately, but the situation can not be satisfactorily solved until a general policy has been adopted. President Hoover has announged a plan for unification of the agencies administering relief to veterans. Economy resulting from this consolidation should make more liberal treatment of veterans possible. It would be unwise to tinker further with compensation laws until this reform is complete. Once a centralized agency is in charge of the affairs of all veterans the ‘way will be paved for a broad--national poHcy.which will make fur- ther piecemeal legislation on the subject un- necessary. problem of reorganization of executive | departments by delegating authority to | the Executive to make changes within | definite lines, subject to the approval of | Congress. | The subject of law enforcement and | prohibition is quite fully discussed. The point of most interest in Washington is, of course, the suggestion that the Dis- trict of Columbia should be the model | of city law enforcement in the Nation. To this end Mr. Hoover would enlarge and more sharply define the duties of the District Commissioners and th: Police Department, open the way to bet- ter cooperation between the police and | Federal prohibition authorities, and en- | aét supplementary prohibition legisla- | tion for the District. a President Hoover is convinced that the Law Enforcement Commission will | evolve workable suggestions for the re- | ofganization of the administration of justice.

There i¢ reason to believe that the attitude of the people toward the impartial en- forcement of all laws has changed for the better. This is due in large part to the exhortations of the President, who. i# universally acknowledged to be ear- néstly seeking ways and means for en- ligting the support of the people in the ter administration of justice, with- o t regard to particular laws, i 17 THE RUBBER SQUEEZE. When Great Britain, in an ill-advised mo- imposed the so-called Stevenson re- strictions on rubber, Harvey Firestone and ment, other American tire manufacturers got busy and established their own rubber plantations, ‘and Thomas A. Edison started: on the quest for a plant that could be grown in contl- -nental United States from which rubber could 'be produced commercially. .The American- owned.rubber plantations are now coming to niaturity, and the day is not far distant when a large portion of the crude rubber supply ‘ill be American-produced. Furthermore, in a characteristically curt, vuarded interview, recently admitted that he lias found a weed ‘“‘which will produce a sat- isfactory amount of rubber for commercial purposes,” America’s independence of foreign nations for its crude rubber supply will have a far- ‘aching effect. The United States Is the largest consumer of rubber, and the tribute _that has been paid to other nations in the form of duties and artificially boosted prices ‘has been distributed throughout the indua- | trial world. What is more, in the event of | war the United States would have been at ihe merey of the rubber-producing states, for wars of the future will: be fought on and with rubber. American rubber Iinde- pendence Is destined to be a bitter pill for foreign rubber-producing states to swallow. World rubber production in 1929 is esti- mated at 820,000 tons, with a consumption of 725,000 tons. Production for 1930 Is estimated at about the same level, but con- sumption is expected to increase about $ per cent to 550,000 tons. On the assumption that 1930 will witness a rubber shortage, Dutch interests have been trying to create a pool to Withhold a portion of the 1929 sur- plus. But the estimates of production do not take into consideration the fact that Amerl- Kdison, can plantations will soon come into full maturity, and Edison's rubber plant, sooner or later, may be taken up for ¢ommercial exploitation. It does not seem probable that the Dutch will be any more successful than the British in squeezing American rubber consumers. -_-_eee MR. TINKHAM’S LOBBY BILL. Representative George Tinkham is trying to put the Senate committees investigating lobbyists out of a job. He has introduced a bill which would require all lobbyists to register and to render accounts of their re- ceipts and expenditures to the secretary of the Senate and the clerk of the House. Lob- byists would be compelled to expose them- selves, under penalty of jail sentences and fines. The bill includes a large portion of the population in the lobbyist class, providing for registration of all individuals, associa- tions, firms, or erganizations and repre- sentatives of such bodies working in op- position to or in advocation of legislative measures. Apparently the citizen who writes to his congressman asking him to support any measure whatsoever would have to réeg- ister and pay his lobbying fee. Congress would listen to no one unless be was A registered lobbyist, or unless he should hap- pen to be summoned before a committee. In view of this provision it is difficult to de- termine whether Mr. Tinkham is trying to discourage lobbying or to put the profession on a purely commercial basis. No distinction would be made as to the type of lobbyists. Parasitie rogues who ac- cumulate fortunes by making gullible in- dividuals believe they can influence legisia- tion would be placed in the same class with representatives. of great national organiza- tions who speak for the interests of millions of people, and with individuals who advo- cate or oppose legislation as a patriotic duty, with a view solely to the country:‘s welfare. The Tinkham bill would deny to all per- sons not holding a registration certificate the privilege of appearing at committee hear- ings. Little harm can be done by lobbying before a committee in an open hearing. Most of the objectionable activities aré car- ried on by paid propagandists outside of congressional committee rooms, and it is lobbyists engaged in this'kind of work who are most difficult to control. There {s no reason for putting restrictions on lobbying where it is least obnoxious, and leaving the field free to sharks who are clever enough to work under cover. If Congress wishes to penalize lobbyists let the blow be struck at the parasites who make paid propaganda a business, and not at individuals who are conscientiously work- ing for the welfare of the country as they see it. i | EVACUATION OF GERMANY | From the Philadelphia Public Ledger. So far as Germany is concerned, the evac- uation of the Coblenz bridgehead by the French is primarily significant as am augury for the future. Germans can now clearly foresee the time when the last foreign soldier will leave the soil of their country. On that date Europe will have returned nearer to normality—such as European normality is— than has been the case since 1914. Under the terms of the Versailles treaty, Germany was to submit to occupation by the allies for a total of fifteen years. The first zone, around Cologne, was to be held for five years. The actual period of the Cologne occu- pation was six years, the delay growing out of the situation created by the Ruhr invasion, the Dawes reparations plan and the Locarno treaties. The Coblenz zone, from which the French troops withdrew last Saturday, was evacuated a month in advance of the treaty date. If all goes well, the last zone, that around Mainz, Frankfort and Wiesbaden, will be given up by the end of next June, four and a half years before completion of the fifteen-year period. When the flag of the German republic was raised over the historic fortress of Ehren- breitstein and the inhabitants of Coblenz staged a tumultuous all-night celebration, they were not only welcoming their own free- dom, but were also looking forward to next summer, when all Germany will be released from the most humiliating penalty which a defeated nation can be called upon to pay— occupation of the country by foreign soldiers. Evacuation of the third and last zone has been made dependent upon acceptance by Germany of the Young plan for reparations payments. That the Germans are not sub- mitting voluntarily to this fina] Nquidation of the war is plain. This fact is given special emphasis by the referendum which will be beld on the Sunday before Christmas, which will mark the climax of a Nationalist move- ment to pass a law making further repara- tion payments fllegal. The confusion which would follow the pas- sage of such a law is easily imaginable. But, as the Nationalists would have to poll more than 20,000,000 votes—50 per cenf of the electorate—it is taken for granted that a suf- ficient number of voters will abstain to in- sure defeat of the movement. Acceptance of the Young plan is a political necessity for Germany—the price to be paid for final with- drawal of foreign troops from the Rhine- land. There has been considerable difference of opinion outside of Germany on the question whether the Rhineland occupation was neces- sary in the scheme Of post-war stabilization. So far as France is eoncerned, there is little doubt that it has served a highly useful pur-. pose. With their watch on the Rhine, the Germany desperate in defeat and fermenting with revolution. And it has all along been clear’ that Germany except under pressure would neither have paid reparations nor en- tered into the Locarno pacts and other agree- ments for the stabilization of Europe. | But now that conciliation is far advanced and the reparations issue in way of final set- tlement, the necessity for permitting Ger- many to take its place in the family of nations upon terms impossible of recognition so long as foreign troops remained in occupa- Jtion is obvious. Liquidation of the war, for Germany as well as for the allies, means evacuation. This is the significance of the “Hberation” of Coblenz, to be emphasized beven months hence at the third and last bridgehead on the Rhine.

A NE «TOIL $1900.00 Minimum Wage of $6 a Day Is Raised to $7; Scale Already Effective. 144,990 ARE AFFECTED Detroit, Dec, 3 (A.P.) —Henry Ford's proposed increase in wages to Ford Moter Co. employes “as a stimulus to dndustry and general business,” wilk result in an increased wage dis- tribution of more than $19,500,000 an- nully in the plants throughout the United States and of $1,000,000 a year in the Canadian plan-s. This was made known today in statements by Edsel B. Ford, presi- dems of the Ford Motor Co. here, and by Wallace R. Campbell, president of the Ford Motor Co. of Canada, Ltd., tellfitg of new wage scales. rhe minimum wage of $6 a day is increased in both United States and Camadian plants and advances to $7 avday; the probationary wage paid to apprentice employes for the first two months of their employment is tn- creaseti from 65 to $6 a day and an Increase averaging 5 per cent is made in the wages «? workers receiving more than the ¢7 minimum. Increase Effective Yesterday. The increased wcule ini the plants in the United States was ‘iade ef- fective yesterday. In the Canadian plants it will become eifective De- cember 5. The announcement by Campbell followed in detail quite closely the previous statement by Ford. While the employment roster of the Ford Co. constantly shows some fluctuations and Ford did not 6ta what the total employment list was yesterday when the increase went into effect, he used the October pay roll as the basis of estimating the aggregate increased wage distribution. The October pay roll, he said, regis- tered 144,990 employes and, using these figures as a basis, he said the increase would amount to $1,628,451 a morth, or slightly in excess of $19,- 500,000 a year. Ford's statement showed that 24,320 men would be affected by the in- crease from 86 to $67 a day in the miniarum rate. Still using the Octo- ber pay roll figures, he said that 113,- 643 employes receive increases which bring their wage to between $7,20 and $104 day. Economies Are Anticipated, He estimated that approximately $15,000,000 of the increased annual wage distribution would go to work- ers in the Detroit area. “We are able to make this in- crease,” Ford said, “partly because of a‘iticipated economies and the great volume of production we have had over a period of months and partly because of our excellent outlook for next year.”” rord was emphatic in his state- ment that the increase did not pre- sage an increase in the price of Ford products. “Wage increases can not be col- lected from the public, nor can they be taken out of the quality of the product; they have to be made up by better management of the work. That is the way we intend to justify this increase,” he said. . “What we are trying to do here is to make some contribution to a con- tinwance of norma] business condi- tions by putting a bit more buying power into the pockets of the work- men.” Ténnis ia the most popular sport omens women at the University of aS a - oo a ee oe THE WASHINGTON POST: WEDNESDAY.

He withdrew his objection after the Sen- ate voted to meet seven hours daily. By -that time, Senator Bratton (Democrat), New Mexico, had de- cided against a week's delay and ob- jected to the Norris proposal. Senator Johnson. (Republican), California, also irisistedl that the Senate would be putting the “cart before the horse” if it waited until next week to act on the election contest before voting on Vare’s right toa seat. Reed insisted that the election contest should be considered first and gave notice that he would try and force such a situation. After Brat- ton blocked a week's delay, Reed moved for it. Norris joined with the Western independents and an almost solid line-up of Democrats.in oppos- ing the delay. Opening the debate then on his resolution to exclude Vare, the Ne- braska senator reviewed the investi- gation into the Philadelphian’s three- cornered contest for the Republican senatorial nomination in 1926. Gif- ford Pinchot, former_ Pennsylvania Governor, and Wharton Pepper, former senator, were his opponents in that race. Senator Norris referred to the testi- mony of Albert M: Greenfield, Phila- delphia real estate dealer, before the investigating committee, citing a $125,000 contribution to Vare's pri- mary campaign. He said after the campaign, Greenfield was placed in a position which enabled his busi- néss to handle “a couple of hundred million dollars a year.” Norris Scents Power Trust. Referrifg to Greenfield’s * former connection as an adviser to one of Philadelphia’s leading public utilitics magmiates, Norris said, “Here is where the mose of the power trust appears under the flap of the tent in the case of this man Vare.” The testimony of Thomas F. Wai- son, Philadelphia coal dealer, that he contributed $25,000 was disputed by the Nebraskan, who said Watson’s in- come from his business would no. permit such a donation.

He added that Cunningham still was subject to the custody of the Senate for refusing to reveal the source Of his contributions, “He mocks at us and laughs at us,” Norris said of Cunningham. “He says it is none of our business. He says ‘It is my money. I took it out of my own poaket.’”’ “Every sensible person knows that that contribution wasn’t his money,” Notris asserted. He said there were evidently dozens of #milar cases where petsons would sooner go to jail than reveal the source of their donations. Norris cited am example of a Phila- delphia business man who had writ- ten him a letter denying he had con- tributed to the Vare campaign, al- though he was listed as having done SO in the official records. Governor Defied By Road Chairman Three Members of Ken- tucky Commission Re- sign by Request. Prankfort, Ky., Dec 3 (A.P.).—The long-moldering row in the Ken- tucky State Highway’ Commission came to a head today by annouwnce- ment from Gov. Sampson that three members had resigned at his request and that the other commissioner, Ben Johnson, chairman, had refused to do so. Chairman Johnson not only re- fused to resign but requested Attor- hey General Carmmack to protect his rights “‘as an officer of the Common- wealth and to prevent any interfer- ence with the performance of my official duties.” His request, which the attorney general took under con- sideration, was taken to presage a court fight over the right of the gov- ernor to remove a commissioner who refused to resign, ahd possibly to bring before the public various charges am countercharges which were taken up by the Franklin Coun- ty grand jury fiere last summer.

Nearly 3,000 leading oll men were present. Conservation Plan Outlined. He outlined his conservation plan as follows: “Let us gradually, practically and scientifically realize what we have t and how we can draw on it ibérally, not only now but in the future, that is, if we come to the conclusion that we can continue to export the excess over consumption, to see how far such excess is going to be lasting. “Secondly, Iet us rather lay our- selves out to produce the best. and to spend on this the money which we should otherwise waste in dupli- eaton of facilities for distribution only. * “Thirdly, let us always bear well in mind that production,. once creat- ed in a@ foreign country, has to be sold there, and that overproducing im and exporting from the States in order to stop such sale is the con- trary of common sense. tie “Fourthly, let us always realize that production in a country is going to be sold in that country, whatever the price may be, and that logical Government protection against cheap, dumped imports is a certain event. © ° ® Effect on Prices to Consumer. “Fifthly, lei us remember that ex- cess of facilities must in the end raise the price of sale against the consumer, On aecount of the large capital expenditure for our facilities, whilst the producer is charged with the odium of such high: prices with- out having the benefit thereof. “Sixthly, and lastly, let us realize that where there are several dozens of large producers and marketers joint action is mecessary. * * *”’ “Lack of coopefation is against everybody's interest,” he said, “in- cluding the consumer. In some countries oil producing land its still split up into small plots which is undoubtedly the most wasteful of all methods of prod the waste sequences of this waste on the far future. It is really a crime against civilization.” The institute elected twelve new directors and reelected 28 others. Among the latter was Harry F.

DECEMBER 4.” 1929. ee ss EVENTS OF INTEREST IN SOCIETY CIRCLES OF CAPITALS Cabinet Lass Finds Prayer Is Efficacious Little Joan Davis Asked -- for Curls and, Lo! She Got Them. By JEAN ELIOT. dy HE little Davises, children of the Secretary of Labor and Mts. Davis, are firm believers in the efficacy of prayer—and with reason. Mecently, when there had been s@yeral days of rain, two of the girls, Jean and Joan, were la- ménting the continued wet weath- er. Jean remarked “I think I'll pray for it to clear off,’’ to which Joan, aged 5, answered “I don’t kmow whether that will do much good. Just think how long I’ve been praying for curly hair.” Well, it cleared off, as it usual- ly, does, eventually. And, more- o¥er, baby Joan, the only one of thie Davis girls not so blessed by mature, has acquired her curly halr. The answer to Prayer’ came about somewhat in- directly, with Mrs. Davis as the “deus ex machina.” . With the understanding heart which makes ber so engaging in the role of m@ther, she decided that it was a pity to have so heartfelt a wish umgratified. So she took her lit- this “‘maiden’s tle daughter to a beauty shop and | treated her to a permanent wave. patron of the shop, who chanced toibe present while the waving was im process, declared that little Joan “behaved like an angel while it was going on—and looked like an ange! afterward,” a sentiment which has been echoed by those who have seen het since, with her small head cov- ered with tight curls Secretary and Mrs. Davis had as guest for the Thanksgiving holiday their niece, Miss Esther Ford Jones, who was with them for some time last | wigter.

It is estimated that this will resul€ in a reduction of $160,000,000 in income taxes to be collected dur- ing the calendar year 1930.. The loss in revenue will be divided approxi- mately equally between the fiscal years 1930 and .1931. Such a- pro- gram ‘will give a measure of tax re- lief to the maximum number. of taxpayers, with relatively larger benefits to taxpayers with small or moderate incom The past year has brought us near to completition of settlements of the indebtedness of foreign governments | to the Untted ‘States. |.

No agree- ment has yet been .concluded with that government, but the form of agreement has been settled and its execution only awaits the government of Austria securing the assent by all the othe? relief creditors of tne terms Offered. Thé act of Congress approved February 4, 1929, authorized the set- tlement with the government of | Greece, and an agreement was con- | cluded on May 10, 1929. The government of France ratified the agreement with us on July 27, 1929. This agreement will shortly be before the Congress and I recommend its approval. The only indebtedness of foreign governments to the United States now unsettled is. acu of Russia and Ar- menia. revision of tax | tlement The total amount of indebtedness of the’ various countries to the United States now funded is $11,- 579,465,885. This sum w in effect provided by the issue of United States Government bonds to our own people. The payments of the various governments to.us on account of principal and interest for 1930 are estimated at a total of about $23v.- 000,000, for 1931 at about $236,000,0U0, for 1932 at about $246,000,000.

Steady Upward Trend of Trade Gave Rise to Over-Optimism from busimess to the stock market and the inev'‘able crash. The natu- ral consequences have been a reduc- tion in the consumption of luxuri?s and semimecessities hy those who have met v**> losses, and a hum’ ~ of persons thrown temporarily ous of employment. Prices of agricult: products dealt im upon the great markets have beem affected in sym- pathy with the stock crash. Fortunately, the Federal reserve system had taken measures to strengthen the position against the day when speculation would break, which together with the strong posi- tion of the banks has carried the whole credit system through .the crisis without impairment. The capital which has been hitherto ab- sorbed im stock-market loans for speculative purposes is now return- ing to the normal channels of busi- ness. There has bten no inflation in the prices of commodities; there has been no undue accumulation of goods, and foreigm trade has expand- ed to a magnitude which exerts a steadying influence upon activity in industry and employment. The sudden threat of unemploy- ment and especially the recollection of the economic consequences of previous ‘crashes under a much less secured financial system created un- warranted imism and fear. It was recalled that past storms of similar character had resulted in re- trenchment of construction, reduc- tion of wages, and laying off of workers. The Datural result. was .the tendency of business agencies throughout’ the country to pause in their plams and proposals for con- tinuation and extension of their businesses, and this hesitation un- ova! checked could in itself imtensify into |@ depression with widespread unem- ‘ployment and suffering. Steps Were Taken to Insure Usual. Volume of Business I have, therefore, instituted sys- tematic, voluntary measures of co- |operation with the business insti- ‘tutions and with State and municipal authorities to make certain that fundamental businesses .of the coun- |try shall continue ‘as usual, that wages and therefore consuming | power shall not be reduced, and that a special effort shall be made to ex- pand construction work in order to assist in equalizing other deficits in ‘employment. Due to the enlarged sense of*cooperation and responsi- bility which has grown in the bdusi- {ness world during the past few years the response has been remarkable and satisfactory. We have canvassed the Federal Government and insti- tuted: measures of prudent expan-- sion in helpful, ent such work ‘that should be and upon which the differ- ‘departments will make some early recommendations to Congress.

Respon- sible ‘farm leaders have assured me that @ large. measure of confidence is returning to agriculture and tha. a feeling c* optimism pervades that industry. The most extensive. action for try ever taken by any government was inaugurated through the farm gpm act of June 15 last.

‘THE WASHINGTON ee ee ee POST: WEDNESDAY. DECEMBER 4, 1920. 4 -/- “SERVICE IR THE Ford Motor Company we emphasize service equally with sales v It has always been our belief that a sale does not complete the transaction between us and the buyer, but establishes a new obligation on us to see that his car gives him service y We are as much interested én your economical operation of the car as you are in our econom- tcal manufacture of it y This ts only good business on our part v If our car gives service, sales will take care of themselves y For that reason we have installed a system of controlled service to take care. of all Ford car needs in an economical and improved manner , We wish all users of Ford cars to know what they are entitled to in this respect, so that they may readily avail. themselves of this service. OM the very beginning, SERVICE has been the corner-stone of the Ford business. Far back in 1908, when the first Model T Fords were made, there were few people who under- stood the operation of an automobile and fewer places to .which the purchaser might turn for help when repairs were needed. Frequently in those days, Mr. Ford would deliver the car personally to the new owner and gee to it that some arrangements were made to keep it in good running order. Usually he would find the best informed mechanic and explain the construction of the car to him. Sometimes, when no such mechanic was available, the town black- smith would be pressed into service. . Then, 2s the business grew, capable men were sppointed, in a widening circle of towns, to de- wote their entire time to the care of Ford cars. These men worked under close factory super- vision amd according to certain sct standards. For just as the Ford Motor Company was the pioneer in the making of “‘a strong, simple, sat- isfactory automobile at a low price,” so it was also the pioneer in establishing complete and satisfactory service facilities. For the first time in the automobile business it became possible for the purchaser of a car to buy parts quickly and readily and to have repairs made at a reasonable cost. Where formerly it had been the accepted practice to charge the highest possible prices for these repairs, a new policy was instituted for the protection of the ‘ owner. The unusual character of Ford Service was soon recognized as one of the outstanding features of the car. Today there are more than cight special schools conducted by the Ferd Moevsp Company and they have been equipped with aff the latest service machinery. The well-ordered cleanliness of the Grops and salesrooms and the uniform coartesy of eff desler employees are particularly appreciased By che woman motorist. Wherever you live, or wherever you go, roe will find the Ford dealer prompt sad busine like in his work, fair in his charges, aad cl» cerely eager to do a good and thorough job at all times.

People are never dining out during the Vita-Minutes. They’re making the day’s pro- gram — and, among the other things they plan and of which they make notes, are purchases. During the early-morning hours, the hours made of Vita-Minutes, people have but one real and interesting contact with the world outside the house: the morning paper—The Post.

The ie sion of most of the available lands of the public domain in existing or planneq reclamati~n projects largely completes the original purpose of the Reclamation Service. There still re- mains the necessity for extensive storage of water in the arid states which renders it desirable that we should give a wider vision and pur- pose to this service. To provide for careful considera- tion of these questions and also of better division of responsibilities in them as between the State and Fed- eral Governments, including the pos- sible transfer to the states for school purposes of the lands unreserved for forests, parks, power, minerals, etc., I have appointeq a Commission on Conservation of the Public Domain, with a membership representing the major public land states and at the same time the public at large. I recommend that Congress should authorize a moderate sum to defray their expenses. The Federal Government provides for an extensive and valuable pro- gram of constructive social service, in education, home building, protection to women and children, employment, public health, recreation, and many other directions. In a broad sense Federal activity in these directions has been confined to research and dissemination of infor- mation and experience, and at most to temporary subsidies to the States in order to secure uniform advance- ment in practice and methods.

We should adhere to this policy. e Federal officials can, however, makc a further and most important con- tribution by leadership in stimulation of the community and voluntary agencies, and by extending Federal tion among them. As an instance of this character, 1 have recently, the Secretaries of Interior and Labor, ae the foundations of an exhaustive uiry into the facts precedent to a nation-wide White House conference a child health and protection. This cooperative movement among inter- ested agencies will impose no expense upon the Government. Similar na- tion-wide conferences will be called in connection with better housing and recreation at a later date. In view of the considerable differ- ence of opinion as to the policies which should be pursued by the Fed- eral Government with respect to edu- cation, I have appointed a committee representative of the important edu- cattional associations and others to investigate and present recommenda- tions. In cooperation with the Sec- retary of the Interior, I have also ap- pointed a voluntary committee of dis- tinguished membership to assist in a nation-wide movement for abolition of illiteracy. I have recommended additional ap- propriations for the Federal employ- ment service in er that it may more fully cover its cooperative work with State and local services, I have also recommended additional appro- priations for the Women’s and Chil- dren’s Bureaus for much-needed re- search as to facts which I feel will prove most helpful. The advance in scientific discovery as to disease and health imposes new considerations upon us. The Nation as a whole is vitally interested in the health of all the people; in protec- tion from spread of contagious dis- ease; in the relation of physical and mental disabilities to criminality; and in the economic and moral advance- ment which is fundamentally associ- ated with sound body and mind. The organization of preventive measures and health education in its personal application is the province of public. health service. Such ofganization should be as universal as public edu- cation. Its support is a proper bur- den upon the taxpayer. It can not be organized with success, either in its sanitary or educational phases, except under public authority. It should be based upon local and State responsi- bility, but I consider that the Federal Government has an obligation of con- tribution to the establishment of assistance in organization of these In the practical working out of organization, exhaustive experiments and trial have demonstrated that the base should be competent organiza- tion of the municipality, county, or other local unit. Most of our mu- nicipalities and some 400 rural coun- ties out of 3,000 now have some such unit organization. Where highly de- veloped,” a health unit comprises at least a physician, sanitary engineer, and community nurse with the ad- dition, in some cases, of another nurse devoted to the problems of maternity and children. Such organ- ization gives at once a fundamental control of preventive measures and assists in community instruction. The Federal Government, through its interest in control of contagion, act- ing through the United States Pub- lic Health Service and the State | agencies, has in the past and should in the future concern itself with this development, particularly in the many rural sections which are un- fortunately far behind in progress. Some parts of the funds contributed under the Sheppard-Towner act through the Children’s Bureau of the Department of Labor have also found their way into these channels. . I recommend to the Congress that the purpose of the Sheppard-Towner act should be continued through the Children’s Bureau for a limited pe- riod of years; and that the Con should consider the desirability of confining the use of Federal funds by the States to the building up of such county or other local units, ress: “C Laboratories, Dept.

I recommend that a further step be taken by authoriza- tion that appointments of third-class postmasters be made under the civil service law. This subject has been under con- sideration for over twenty years. It was promised by both political parties in the recent campaign.

Federal Prison Administration Closely Related to Conditions institutions to be undertaken at once. Restrictidn oof immigration has from every aspect proved a sound na- tional policy. Our pressing problem is to formulate a method by which the limited number of immigrants whom we do welcome shall be adapted to our national setting and our national needs. I have been opposed to the basis of the quotas now in force and I have hoped that we could find some prac- tical method to secure what I believe should be our real national objective; that is, fitmess of the immigrant as to physique, character, training and our need of service. Perhaps some system of priorities within the quotas could produce these results and at the same time enabl@ some hardships in the present system to be cleared up. I recommend that the Congress should give the subject further study, in which the executive departments will gladly cooperate with the hope of discovering such method as will more fully secure our national neces- sities. It has been the policy of our Gov- ernment almost from its inception to make provision for the men who have been disabled in defense of our coun- try. This policy should be main- tained. Originally it took the form of land grants and pensions. This system continued until our entry into the World War. The Congress at that time inaugurated a new plan of com- pensation, rehabilitation, hospitaliza- tion, medical care and treatment, and insurance, whereby benefits were awarded to those veterans and their immediate dependents whose disabili- ties were attributable to their war service. The basic principle in this legislation is sound. In a desire to eliminate all] possi- bilities of injustice due to difficulties in establishing service connection of disabilities, these principles have been to some degree extended. Veterans whose diseases or injuries have be- come apparent within a brief period after the war are now receiving com- pensation; imsurance benefits have been liberalized. Emergency officers are now receiving additional benefits. The doors of the Government’s hos- pitals have been opened to el) veter- ans, even though their diseases or in- juries were not the result of their war service. In addition adjusted service certificates have been issued to 3,433,- 300 veterans. This in itself will mean an expenditure of nearly $3,500,000,000 before 1945, in addition to the $600,- 000,000 which we are now appropri- ating annually for our veterans’ relief. The administration of all laws con- cerning the veterans and their de- pendents has been upon the basis of dealing generously, humanely, and justly. While some inequalities have arisen, substantial and adequate care has been given and justice rendered. Further improvement in administra- tion may require some amendment from time to time to the law, but care should be taken to see that such changes conform to the basic princi- ples of the legislation. Bureaus It seems to me that thé essential principles of reorganization are two in number. First, all administrative activities of the same major purpose should be placed in groups under single-headed responsibility; second, all executive and administrative functions should be separated from boards and commissions and placed under individual responsibility, while quasilegislative and Cuasijudicial and broadly advisory functions should be removed from individual authority and assigned to boards and commis- sions. Indeed, these are the funda- mental principles upon which our Government was founded, and they are the principles which have been adhered to in the whole development of our business structures, and they are the cistillation of the common sense of generations. For instance, the conservation of national resources is spread among eight agencies in five departments. They suffer from conflict and overlap. There is no proper development and adherence to broad national policies and no central point where the searchlight of public opinion may concentrate itself. These functions should be grouped under the direc- tion of some such official as an as- sistant secretary of conservation. The particular department or cabinet officer under which such a group should be placed is of secondary im- portance to the need of concentra- tion. The same may be said of edu- cational services, of merchant marine aids, of public works, of public health, of veterans’ services, and many others, the component parts of which are widely scattered in the various de- partments and independent agencies. It is desirable that we first have. ex- perience with these different groups in action before we create new de- partments. These may be necessary subject to some other influence. later on. forces and bringing about coopera- in cooperation with | less willing its eR over the problems (sub- | limited period adequate for its con- ject principles) to the ' sideration. defined The first duty of the President under his oath of office is to secure the enforcement of the laws. The enforcement of the laws enacted to give effect to the eighteenth amend- ment is far from satisfactory and this is in part due to the inadequate organization of the administrative agencies of the Federal Government. With the hope of expediting such re- organization, I requested on June 6 last that Congress should appoint a joint committee to collaborate with executive por wen Rass in preparation of legislation. It would be helpful if it could be so appointed. The subject has been earnestly considered by the Law Enforcement Commission and the administrative officials of the Government. Our joint conclusions are that certain steps should be taken at once. Pirst, there should be an imme- diate concentration of responsibility and strengthening of enforcement agencies of the Federal Government by transfer to the Department of Justice of the Federal functions of detection and to a considerable de- gree of prosecution. which are now lodged in the prohibition bureau in The District of Columbia should be the model of city law enforcement in the Nation. While conditions here are much better than in many other cities, they are far from, perfect, and this is due in part to the congestion of criminal cases in the Supreme Court of the District, resaiting in long delays. Furthermore, there is need for legislation in the District supplementing the national prohibi- tion act, more sharply defining and enlarging. the duties and of the District Commissioners and the police of the District, and opening the way for better cooperation in the en- forcement of prohibition between the District officials and the prohibition officers of the Federal Government. It is urgent that these conditions be remedied. No one will look with satisfaction upon the volume of crime of all kinds and the growth of organized crime in our country. We have press- ing need so to organize our system of administering criminal justice as to establish full vigoreand effective- ness. We need to reestablish faith that the highest Anterests of our country are served by insistence upon the swift and even-handed adminis- tration of justcie to all offenders, whether they be rich or poor. That we shall effect improvement is vital to the preservation of our institu- tions. It is the most serious issue before our people. Under the authority of Congress I have appointed a national commis- sion on law observance and enforce- ment, for an exhaustive study of the entire problem of the enforcement of our laws and the improvement of our judicial system, including the special problems and abuses growing out of the prohibition laws. The commis- sion has been invited to make the widest Inquiry into the shortcomings of the administration of justice and into the causes and remedies for them. It has organized its work under subcommittees dealing witn the many contributory causes of our situation and has enlisted the aid of investigators in fields requiring spe- cial consideration. I am confident that as a result of its studies now be- ing: carried forward it will make a Law can not rise above its source in good citizenship—in what right- minded men most earnestly believe and desire. If the law is upheld only by Government officials, then all law is at an end. Our laws are made by the people themselves; theirs is the right to work for their repeal; but until repeal it is an equal duty to observe them and demand their en- forcement. I have been gratified at the awak- ening sense of this responsibility in our citizens during the past few months, and gratified that many in- stances have occured which refuted the cynicism which has asserted that our system could not convict those who had defied the law and the means to resist its execution. These things reveal a moral awaken- Enforcement of Prohibition Is “Far From Satistactory”’ the Treasury; and at the same time’ the control of the distribution of industrial alcohol and legalized bever- Federal courts by modifying and simplifying the procedurg for dealing with the large volume of prosecutions under various acts. Thi, there should be a codi- fication of the laws relating to prohi- bition to avoid the necessity which closed should be cured. I would add to these recommendations the de- sirability of reorganizing the various services engaged im the prevention of smuggling into one border patrol under the Coast Guard. Further re- commendations upon the subject as a whole will be developed after further examination by the Enforcement Commission, not to be expected that any criminal law, will ever be fully enforced #0 long as criminals exist. Wants Washington qs Model City for Law Entorcement notable contribution to the solution of our pressing lems. Pending further legislation, the Department of Justice has been striving to weed out inefficiency wherever it exists, to stimulate ac- tivity on the part of its prosecuting officers, and to use increasing care in examining into the qualifications of those appointed to serve as prose- cutors. The department is seeking and month by month, not by matic displays but by. steady pres- sure; by removal of negligent offi- cilals and by encouragement and as- sistance to the vigilant. During the course of these efforts it has been re- vealed that in some districts causes contributing to the congestion of criminal dockets, and to delays and inefficiency in prosecutions, have been lack of sufficient forces in the offices of United States attorneys, clerks of courts, and marshals. These conditions tend to clog the machfh- ery of justice. The last conference of senior circuit judges has taken note of them and indorsed the de- partment’s proposals for improve- ment. are necessary and will be asked for in order to reenforce these offices. The orderly administration of the || law involves more than the mere machinery of law enforcement. The efficient use of that machinery and a spirit in our people in support of law are alike essentiakh We have need for improvement in both. How- ever much ‘ve may perfect the mech- anism, still if the citizen who is himself dependent upon some laws for the protection.of all that he has and all that he holds dear, shall in- sist on selecting the particular laws which he will obey, he undermines his own safety and that of his coun- try, His.attitude may obscure, but it cam not conceal, the ugly truth that the lawbreaker, whoever he may be, is the enemy of society. We can no longer gloss over the un- pleasant reality which should be made vital in the consciousness of every citizen, that he who condones or, traffics with crime, who is indif- ferent to it and to the punishment of the criminal, or to the: lax per- formance of official duty, is himself the most effective agency for the breakdown of society. Law Can Not Rise Above Source In Good Citizenship, Hoover Says ing both in the people and in officials which lie at the very foundation of the rule of law. The test of the rightfulness of our decisions must be whether we have sustained and advanced the ideals of the American people; self-government in its foundations of local govern- ment; justice whether to the indi- vidual or to the group; ordered liberty; freedom from domination; open opportunity and equality of op- portunity; the initiative and individ- uality of our people; prosperity and the lessenirg of poverty; freedom of public opinion; education; advance- ment of knowledge; the growth of religious spirit; the tolerance of all faiths; the foundations of the home and the advancement of peace.

Policeman Doffs Coats, Nabs Man Patrolman Peels Off His Clothes While He Pur- sues Auto Driver. Yesterday was a cold day, but not cold enough to keep Policeman G. M. Stewart, of the Seventh Precinct, from getting warm when he chased Ralph Mills, 22 years old, colored, of . 12263 Twenty-fifth street northweet, for a half-dozen blocks or s0. He first discarded his overcoat, then his coat, and when the race ended he was perspiring rfeely. The trouble all started for Mills when his auto ran out of gas in front of Stewart, who was directing traffic at Potomac and M streets northwest. The policeman recognized the license number as that of a hit-and-run car involved in a collision on November 17. Mills broke away while he was being taken to the police station. After running for several blocks Stewart commandeered an automo- bile and gained on the fleeing man. Mills was booked on charges of fail- ing to stop after an accident and driving without a District permit or a registration drca.

RAM STOKER, author of “Dra- cula,” at the National Theater this week, was for many years a leading figure in English theatrical circles, chiefly as Sir Henry Irving’s personal representative in London and during his transatlantic tours. Many an -insistent caller upon Sir He had to be content with seeing Mr. Stoker. In “Dracula,” Stoker tells a story whose plot is built on the model of the old English romances in which there is little else than crime and horror of the most astounding and hair-raising kind. Of course, this is no sort of story for the devotees of “Polyanna” to read, although some of the things done in it are no more unreal than in that classic story of happiness unalloyed. But it is nevertheless a good story, well conceived, well plan- ned and well written. ; Canadian Lawyer Protests U.S. Seizure of Liquor Boat Crew That Saved Officers From Sinking Customs Ship Have Launch Taken Within 100 Feet of Ontario Shore, Says Attorney. Windsor, Ontario, Dec. 3 (A.P.).— David A. Croll, barrister, today entered a formal protest with the department of national revemue over the seizure by a United States cutter Saturday of a liquor-laden launch in the De- troit River. . The protest claimed that the seiz- ure was made within 100 feet of the Canadian shore and demanded a “sweeping investigation.” The protest set forth that two “liquor exporters” set out from the Canadian side to cross the Detroit River with a valuable liquor cargo, but some distance out the launch was caught in an ice floe and rendered helpless. Two United States customs officers sighted them in a speedboat from Detroit, the protest continued, but they also were caught in the ice, and the sides of their boat were pierced and :t began to sink. The liquor runners maneuvered into a position to take the customs officers off, as their craft was going under. Croll said the runners freed their launch from the floe and started back to the Canadian side when a Coast Guard -cutter bore down on them and boarded their craft. The ‘protest charged one of the runners was struck and knocked down when he protested against the seizure of his boat, and the United States Officers drew their guns. The. two runners were landed on the Canadian shore, the protest said, but the boat and ite cargo were towed to the American side and held on the charge that the boat had entered Americar waters.

It is understood that the two mem- bers of the board are not in complete accord on all points, but these -dif- ferences are said to have been worked out for the most part and an agree- ment is expected to be reached at another meeting to be held today, whenever Davison is free from the necessity of attending the McCrory explosion inquest. f H. di Beautiful Shoes Luxurious Suede: Novelty Kid Trim In this beautiful shoe that has just ar- rived.

However, Declarer was too canny to take the unnecessary risk either of failing to trump or of trumping too low. She played Dummy’s 10, since, in any case it was destined to fall immediately on one of her own higher trumps. East, noting the Diamonds and Clubs in Dummy, realized that he could not afford to part with a card in elther sult. He did not like to throw away one of his two remaining trumps, but a trump be spared more safely than 3 of either Minor. Therefore East : an unusual play, under-ruffing mmy's 10 with the 6 of Hearts.

UMMING it all up, the long skirt has not yet succeeded in fully dominating the situation, save in the showrooms of some of the Paris designers. At the beginning of each season a few extreme things are launched, with no particular ex- pectation that they will be adopted bodily. The long skirted evening gown, of course, has been completely success- ful. Even the peacock skirt, barely covering the knees in front and trail- ing on the floor behind, has disap- peared, and we have either the skirt, which is moderately long all around, or the more extreme model, which al- most touches the floor on all sides Not that the slanting hemline has disappeared, but when seen it is more moderate. Otherwise, there is no particular evidence as yet that women as a whole will accept a much longer skirt for tailored or sports wear. We don’t see the exaggerated shortness Of a while back—tbut. a skirt 16 or 17 inches off the ground could scarcely be called trailing!

Au Revoir! “Whey Men Tire.” EAR MISS McDONALD: Every night I read your column and have found answers to many questions. But still there are a num- ber of more personal questiors I would like you to answer. I am a girl of 16 years, dress well. a junior in high echool, take active parts in sports. Mother and I have been living for the past seven yegrs with my aunt. Spe allows me to fh- vite to the house only the one she chooses and tells me to “look up” not “down” for my friends. My aunt buys my clothes and gives us our home. She really keeps us and I sup- pose that is why mother wéll net leave, at least until I have completed my education. Father will not sup- port us unless we live with him and mother could not stand his nagging. It is hig sister we live with. Another thing, I have been going with a girl regularly . We are like sisters. I would do anything for her and she would do anything for me. been rather wild omes. At 11 o'clock I must be home, while she stays out until 1. My aunt denounces her and vows to put her out of the house. But mother likes her and wishes me to hold on to her as such a friend 1s hard to find and she is very popular. What can I do? I spent the summer with my sister in Ohio. While there I met a fellow that I “‘became crazy about.” He is good-looking, and he asked me to “wait for him.” I told him how I felt Party Set for Tonight Cider and ginger bread! That's enough for the 1 500 members of the West Virginia Society of the District | of Columbia who 1 hold their an-. nual cider and ginger bread party tonight at the Washington Club, | Seventeenth and K streets northwest, | at 8 o'clock.

He confessed he had a gir] out there and said I should try to find a fellow. I came to Ohio again. The first day I was there he came to see me. But instead of the gentleman I once knew he was a “regular guy.” H# is better looking than ever and dresses wonderful. But alas, he is bad. He is no longer hashful and shy but very bold, fast snd forward. He spent every day with me and I love him more than ever. > How can I hold him, es I never fan hold any one for long?

I am full of fun. My uncle: and my borether lecture along the line of how tc treat fellows, but if a girl is too good fellows don’t want to be bothered with her. MICKY. In the first place, your aunt is quite evidently doing a great deal for you—-and you seem to have not the faintest sense of appreciation! That is one characteristic that will keep you from being loved. No one is ever interested for any length of time in a selfish, unappreciative nature. Be- sides your aunt appears to be striving to keep you above improper associates —and she seems not even .to have your mother’s support in this. No’ girl of 16 should be allowed to roam the city until 1 o’clock—and the gir! who does so, is an undesirable acquaintance! And under this head also comes your Ohio boy friend Drop him—even before he drops you. And lastly your men friends all tire of you for the simple reason that a man always despises, pities and sneers at the poor befuddled girl who be- lieves that a girl can not be good and be popular also.

THAT BLINDFOLD TEST. AN a blindfolded man pick out a brand of cigarettes by the odor and taste of the smoke? This uestion is answered as follows by Dr. Bogen: Some men can do s0 with great correctness. Others can pick out the type of cigarette in that way, but not the brand. The cigarette types he considers are Orientals, blends, do- mestic, West Indian, denicotinized and tobacco-free. Most men are un- able to differentiate between either types or brands. It is true that they guess right at times, but the percent- age of error showed that chance was the only factor that operated. The considerable group on whom this trial was made was composed of men who had been smoking more than three years and who consumed nearly an average Of one package a day. The genera] run of men in a group might tell whether a cigarette was strong or mild, but that was about the limit of their expert abliity. There are nearly 300 brands of cig- arettes on the. market. These were examined for nicotine. The amount: found was greatest in the domestic brands and least in the West Indian.- The others ranged from domestics down through biends, Orientals, de- nicotinized, to West Indian A n can decrease hig nicotine in by ch his brand. Dr. ‘a re- port did not give the details of the analyses by brands, but it did classify 67 brands into Orientals and the other five types. This information is to be found in the October 13 number of the Journal of the American Medi- cal Association.

I quote especially the following paragraph: ‘However, Father Hurley, athletic director of Gonzaga, stated last night that so far as Gonzaga was concerned, the game never had been agreed upon and that under no conditions would he permit the team from that school to oppose the eleven representing the Devitt Institution.’ This statement is ab- solutely false. I was never consulted nor interviewed by any one represent- ing The Washington Post or any other newspaper last evening and, since the statement attributed to me carries with it an unkind reflection upon a respectable institution, I feel that your newspaper should make a puDlic apology for such an error. “The entire article is but the wild vaporings of some one evidently anxious to cause hard feeling between vtwo institutions who have. ever en- joyed the closest relationship, Gon- CONTINUED ON PAGE 20, COLUMN 8&8 3.

EW YORK, Dec. 3 (A.P.).— Pittsburgh and Yale, with three representatives apiece, win the lion’s share of the honors cn the All-Eastern football eleven for 1929 named by a comsensus of sports writers polled by the Associated Press. In the first team lNne-up is only one survivor of last year’s all-star array—Christian Cagle, of the Army. The West Point red head, who played sterling football all Beason on a los- ing team, held his half back post against as brilliant a bevy of backs as ever trod the Eastern gridirons, Little Albie Booth, of Yale, the only .sophomore . selected, is named quarter back, and Toby Uansa, with more votes than any other back, be- comes Cagle’s running mate.

HILADELPHIA, Dec. 3 (AP.).— Three of the world champion Athletics were sent to the Port- land Club of the Pacific Coast League today in part veer for Leroy Ma- haffey, star right-handed pitcher, and George Snider, a young pitcher, both of the Portland Club. The three Mackmen are Carroll (Lefty) Yerkes, who was with the Athletics several years; Walter French, utility outfielder and former Army star baseball and football player, and Jimmy Cronin, utility infielder, who flashed for a time last summer when he replaced Joe Boley at shortstop. Mahaffey and Snider were purt- chased late last summer from Port- and for cash and three players, and are to report in the spring. In anouncing the release of the three players to Portland, Connie Mack, manager of the Athletics, said that Newhal! Morse, infielder, would be returned to the’ Des Moines Club. He had been taken on trial and Mack decided not to exercise his option. Mahaffey Had Trial With Pirates. Mahaffey is 24 years old. He first came to notice with the Columbia (S. C.) Club. He was obtained by Pittsburgh, but was sent to Portland for Larry French, a left-hander, who was with the Pirates last season. Tom Turner, president of the Port- land Club, rated Mahaffey as one of the best pitchers in thé Coast League. Mack's move in obtaining Mahaffey is to get —— good right-handed pitchers to go along with Grove, Wal- berg and Earnshaw, the latter being a right-hander. Mack believes that if Mahaffey maintains his Pacific Coast record his pitching staff in 1930 will give him no worries. STENGEL RESIGNS AS PILOT. Toledo, Ohio, Dec. 3 (A.P.).— Charles 8S. (Casey) Stengel, manager of Toledo Mud Hens since 1926, to- day signed to lead the team in the 1930 pennant chase. en Wo OOPWAR D The Christmas Store —Ké-m-~ Public Career Is Ended, Tunney Says, on Arrival EW YORK, Dec. 3 (A.P.) —Gene Tunney came home today. with his bride, and it was just like old times again with sports writers rushing to meet him, cameramen shouting and clicking lenses from all angles, and a crowd waiting at the pier. The retired heavyweight champion of the world salled into port on the liner Vulcania with Mrs. Tunney, the former Polly Lauder, for whom he renounced the ring after knocking out Tom Heeney in July of 19286 in his farewell to fisticuffs. Tunney and Miss Lauder, society girl, were mar- ried in Rome, October 3, 1928. Although it occasioned no sur- prise, Tunney made it clear in a for- mal statement that he had perma- nently retired from the boxing game. Happiest When Living Quietly and Simply. “The echo of a rumor at home that I am contemplating returning to the boxing game reached me in Italy,” the statement said. “This is in no gense true, for I have perma- nently ended my public career. My great wish now is to live quietly and simply, for this manner of living brings me most happiness.” Any hope the former champion might have had of a formal and dig- nified dismissal of this and kindred subjects was dissipated soon after 60 newspapermen and photographers climbed aboard the liner, three days overdue from Naples. At quarantine Tunney met the press, shook hands all around, and passed out the print- ed slips. “In strict confidence,” “this is all I have to say.” It was just like old times, but im- mediately he was bombarded with questions, cut out from the crowd of admirers, and hustled into a vacant stateroom. where in the manner of other days, the “vacuum” was ap- plied: The old champion hesitated a moment and then gave in. Talks Eagerly of Ring, Ie Silent on Suit. Except for a wrinkle or two around the eyes, he was the old “Gene” of his fighting days, courteous, affable, chock fall of interest in fistic events that have transpired in his absence and apparently in splendid physical condition. He said he weighed 192% pounds, the same poundage he omen he said, & Lothrop HISTORY REPEATS in. the designs of Historical Cravats * Designers of Historical Cravats have gathered their motifs from all cornérs of the globe.

He said that Mrs. Tunney, who was operated upon for appendicitis abroad, now had completely recovered her health and that, there was no truth in the reports that he had undergone a similar operation. His @ppreciation of George Bernard Shaw, Irish literary champion who visited the Tunney villa at Brioni, Italy, frequently was so great that Gene hardly could find words to ex- press himself. Finally he named Shaw “a great fellow.” Names Carnera as Fine Prospect. Asked to name the prominent heavyweights, Gene answered “Primo Carndra,” and went on to explain that the Italian heavyweight is really 6 feet 10 inches tall and weighs 283 pounds. “Carnera has the biggest feet the world,” he said, of an elephant.” Among other things, Tunney said his fortune had not been injured in the recent stock market crash, that he had no business prospects in view, and expected to “settle down” in Stamford, Conn. He was seasick four days on the rough trip across the Atlantic. Gene said that Jack Sharkey’s knock-out of Tommy Loughran did not surprise him and that Max Schmeling, Phil Scott, Otto von Porat and Sharkey seemed the best of the present contenders for the heavy- in “and the ankles CONTINUED ON PAGE 21, COLUMN 1.

PLAYERS GET VERDICT TODAY Minor League Czar Gives Southworth, Toporcer Hearing. HATTANOOGA, Tenn. Dec. 3 (A.P.) —Although an entire base- ball day was devoted to the hear- ing of the case of George Toporcer and Billy Southworth, of the Roches- ter Club, no decision was reached and the matter went over until to- morrow, when a ruling will be made. The board of arbitration recessed late today after being in session through the day, sitting with President M. H. | Sexton of the National Association When the members of the board emerged from the extended executive session, it was learned that, contrary to the general !mpression, the case of the International League player and manager was being heard’ by Mr. Sexton as president of the associa- tion, rather than the entire board. Toporcer recentiy was suspended from bavebal] for one year, in addi- tion to a fine of $200, and South- worth was fined #500 by President Sexton as a result of incidents at a “little world series” game at Roches- ter October 13 Decision on Players to be Made Today. The players appealed for a rehear- ing as they did not receive notice of the first hearing in time: to attend, and this was granted today. Both Toporcer and Southworth appeared before Mr. Sexton with the board members also vresent. Mr. Sexton said after the meeting, which continued from 11 a. m. until after 6 p. m., that he would render a decision tomorrow. The first of several prospective man- ager.al appoiniments Was announced today at the minor jeague baseball convention when R. J. Connery, presi- dent of the St. Paul Club, announced that his American Association club would be managed next year by Albert (Lefty) Leifield, former major league scout and ‘last year manager of the Oklahoma City Club of the Western e. Leifield wil] succeed E. F (Bubble® Hargrave, who has returned to the major league as a catcher for the New York Yankees. Draft Debate May Not Come Up. It was jearned today as the baseball clans gathered for the opening to- morrow of the annual convention of he National Association; that the perennial draft debate may not feature this meeting. Some of the riers of the wider use of the ective proress for promoting minor league playefs seem about to concede that the best sen can do for the time being ts to ntain the status quo and it was |suggested today that only minor | changes wil] be made in the modified |draft plan now in operation. . This provides for drafting from the | exempt leagues only those players who have had previous trials in the | major leagues. | | | Although an entire baseball . day was devoted to the hearing of the case of George Toporcer and Billy Southworth, of:the Rochester Club, no decision was reached and the mat- , ter went over untli tomorrow, when a ruling will be made.

The Freshmen had to fight all the way to equal a touchdown registered in the first quarter as tne result of a 30-yard forward pass, which Raiche caught over the goal line, Dut a steady march from midfield netted them the required marker in the last period. Jamieson plunged over for the tying counter and Redroe’s drop-kick gave them the victory. Fr Position. Sophomores Freshimet men Touch hdowns—Jamieso son. Raiche. after touchdown—Redroe (drop-kick). Coggins Likely Choice To Coach Central Nine With the announcement yesterday that S. T. Kimble, of Centra] High School, would not.coach the Blue and White Baseball Team in 1930, Irving. Coggins, director of athletics at the Mount Pleasant School, said that either he or Ty Rauber, foot- ball coach, would bandle the nine next. spring, with the probability that he himself would be at the helm, Although. no definite statement wll be forthcoming for a few days, it is thought that Rauber’s law studies will keep him too occupied after February to permit his taking over the destinies of the base team. | DIEGEL.

The amount redeemed this year will total $890,784.950, ac- cording to a compilation made to- day, as contrasted with the record figure of $1,841.727,230 last year, and $1,601,861,700 in 1927.

A year ago the average. which, includes the operations of the independent companies, and the United States Steel Corporation, showed an increase of 1% per cent to better than 84% per cent. William H. Williams, chairman of the board of the Missouri Pacific Raliroad, said today that the deciara- tion of a dividend of $1.50 a share on account of unpaid dividends on the preferred stock, would not af- fect the company’s plan t6 issue com- mon stock in settlement of accrued of common stock to be issued would | be reduced by the amount of this payment. Inasmuch as the Inter- state Commerce Commission has not yet acted on the application to issue additional common stock, Mr Will- lames added, the directors deemed it advisable to pay the same amount on account of back dividends as was paid in 1928. An extra dividend of $3 a share and the regular semiannual payment of 64 were declared on the common stock of the Texas & Pacific Rail- way. Both are pavable December 24 to stock of record December 7. Orders for good short-term Amer- ican securities have poured into the market in such volume since the break in stocks sent money out of speculative channels that the supply at present is inadequate. according to bankers. One large bank is reported to have orders for $150,000,000 of high-grade tax exempt notes, but has only been able to buy $5.000000. A great part of the demand has been for notes maturing up to three years The Interstate Equities Co. has. of. fered holders of Petroleum ra- tion of America stock to exchange 1% shareg of ite stock with a warrant entitling purchase of an additiona, share at 820 a share to December 31 1931, for each share of Petroleum Corporation stock. The offer is lim- ited to 100.000 shares. Both com- panies are investment trusts spon sored by the Bancamerica Blair’ Cor- poration. The Petroleum Corporation specializes in oi] stocks. Directors of the Missouri Pacific Railroad today declared a dividend of $1.50 on account of arrears on the preferred stock and the regular quar- terly preferred dividend of $1.25 When the dividends declared todas are paid there will remain $48.25 still due on the stock A similar dividerd on the unpaid balance was paid a year ago.

DAILY COTTON MARKET, New York, Dec. 3. tysi. 1960 . ~ z 2 5 | INVESTMENTS By CHARLES W. STORM In making Inquiries, address Charles W. Storm, financtal de- partment of The Washington Post, and inclose a self - addressed stamped envelope for reply. Cord Corporation. | Mess E. B.—IZ would like condition and earnings of the Cord | 'Corporation and the Anchor Post | Pence Co. sirable at present prices? | Answer—Cord Corporation, which is '@ holding and operating company in- corporated June 17, 1929, and owns substantial blocks of several auto- mobile concerns, chief among which ‘is the Auburn Automobile Co., has not yet published any statement of ‘income account, therefore its earn- ines are not known. As of August 1,/ . | 1929, total assete were $28.551,635, in- ‘cluding cash of 65,391,628. Latest ‘earnings statement of Anchor Post | ; | Fence Co., that for year ended De- cer ber $1, 1928. showed net | $118.185. ccmpared with §45,900 the previous year. Total current assets a) }end of 1928 were $826,486 and ' current NMabilities $262,199. November , 21. 1929. announced directors of com- pany had declared a quarterly divi- cash, payab’e January 1, 1930. October 1, 1929, a dividend on com- mon of 865c in cash or 244% in etock was paid. Btock fairly well regarded | as a speculative Investment. Has $6,000 to Invest. H. L. M—I have $6,000 that I will not need for a period of three or four | years I do not wish to speculate but do wish to place this money where it | will yield the largest interest consid- ering absolute safety. Answer—-The only medium of in- vestment that can be here suggested as containing the elements of abso- lute safety are United States Govern- ment bonds. Even though the income yield from them is not so large as that which could be derived from in- vestments in railroad. industrial. mu- nicipal or other securities, many of which are regarded as at least reason- ably safe investments. Can not advise as to real estate mortgages. Tri-Continental and Bendix. Mrs. C. G. H—Please advise me what you think of Tri-Continental common and also Bendix Aviation as investments. Answer — Tri-Continental Corpora- tion is managing the Tri-Continental Allied Co., a $50,000,000 genera] man- agement investment trust iately formed under the sponsorship of J. & W Seligman & Co. This column makes it a practice not to comment on investment trusts, even though they may be well sponsored, as this one is, for the reason that their future success is 60 largely dependent upon the efficiency of their manigement. Earnings of the Bendix Aviation Corporatian for the first half of 1929 were equivalent to $2.56 per share on 2,015,000 shares, of which about 25c represented nonrecurring income. These profits, however, did not include income of Pioneer Instrument and other recent acquisitions. Profite of the merged concern for the ful] 1929 year are indicated at from $4 to $4.50 per share. Dividends of 82 annually were recently inaugurated on the stock. Company occuples an excep- tionally strong position in the auto- mobile and aircraft accessories fields and should show a substantial ex- pansion in earning power over the next few years. For these reasons, the stock is well thought of as a specula- tive investment. Montgomery Ward. W. G. C.—What annual dividend is pald on Montgomery Ward stock? Do | you consider it a sound investment , at the present price? Can you men- | tlon two or three stocks selling under $25 that are good income producers a present prices? Answer—Montgomery Ward is at per share. The stock is not to be considered a “sound” investment However, tion for the long pull as a speculative investment. Phillip Morris and Dome ' Mines are two stocks now selling sub- stantially under $25 a share which at | Present prices yield a very good ine | eome. About Two Stocks. F. W. C.—Please advise on the in- | & Southern and Internationa! Com- | Dustion Engineering. | Answer-—Commonwealth & South- eTn has taken its place among the |jarge holding organizations and will | | vestment qualities of Commonwealth | * | be @ leader in public utility activity |in the Central and Southeastern part of the country. Dividends of 6% an- nually, payable in common stock, have recently been begun. Considering the outlook and steady expansion. the stock is not umattractive for long- term holding. Directors of International Combus- tion Eggineering recently omitted the payment of both the common and | preferred stock dividénds. This fact, | tO say nothing about the internal dissentiong in the management that have recently developed, deprives this issue of whatever nvestment qual- ‘les it may have hitherto possessed.

States Must Solve Problem. ““Fhe National Commercial Forestry Conference held by the Chamber of Commerce of the United States in Chicago in 1927 showed: that the problem of our forests is essentially one which must be met by the indi- vidual States,” Leroy Hodges, man- aging director of the State chamber, said today in discussing the confer- ence. “The rapid development of the a H \ , RL a ie Charles Crockett. & yrs. r wood-using industries of Virginia. such as pulp and paper. furniture rayon, and the like, is making heavy demands upon our forest resources. while the forest conservation regula- tions which have been put into force in some nearby States are further draining Virginia’s forest resources by a heavy and rapidly growimg export of timber from the Old Dominion into those States. The adoption of a pro- gram for the wise conservation and the proper development of the for- ests of Virginia is of vital importance to the future industrial progress of our State.” , “The farmer is the greatest indi- vidual user of forest products, and as the owner of more than half of the forest area of the State has a basic in- terest in the production of wood for his own use as well as for the use of others,” Chairman Tyler said in ex- Plaining why a number of those on the committee represent the great agricultural] organizations in the State. Crop Stability Cited. Through the production of timber, he pointed out, the farm income is increased by a crop whose value shows greater Stability than almost any other farm crop. “Prosperity of the State, the com- munity and the individual,” he said. “hinges largely on proper land utiliza- tion. Forestry plays an important role in that problem. The forests of the State are among its most valu- able resources, each year yielding products whose values exceed $100,- 000,000. Thousands of laborers bene- fit by employment in forests and wood-using factories. Present prac- tices tend to deplete this renewable resource and wnless improvement is made this great asset will become of little value to the individual or gov- ernment. Protection against fire must extend to 100 per cent, instead of 66 per cent. of Virginia’s forest area, anil steps must be taken by forest own- ers to maintain the furniture, paper and pulp, lumber and other wood- using industries on.& permanent basis.” Rabbit Fever Affects : Woman in Maryland Special to The Washington Post.

DECISION QUICKLY MADE Westminster, Md., Dec. 3 (AP.).— Mrs. Viola Spurrier, 39-year-old mother of three children, was ac- quitted of a charge of murdering her husband, Ernest, by a j in cir-. cult court here tonight after it had deliberated for 45 minutes upon Te- ceiving the case from Chief Justice F. Neal Parke. A demonstration, started when the verdict was announced, was quickly halted by the court as Mrs. Spurrier left the room to be congratulated by friends. Arguments of counsel were com- pleted early in the night session, after the day had been spent in tak- ing testimony of both State and de- fense witnesses, to place the case on record as one of the most speedily concluded murder trials in the his- tory of the Carroll County Circuit Court. The case went to the jury at 8:25 and it came beck to the courtroom 45 minutes later. It was reported that acquittal was reached on the second ballot, after the first had shown the jury to stand 10 to 2 for freeing the accused woman. Woman on Stand Two Hours¢ Earlier in the day Mrs. Spurrier told a two-hour story of abuse which she said for years had been leading up to the fatal shooting of her hus- band last July at their home near Finksburg. Before she was called to the wit- ness stand the rush of events in Circuit Court had brought about the empanelling of a jury after nearly 100 talesmen were examined and the rapid State witnesses Testimony that after a quarrel in front of their home Mrs Spurrier standing 3 or 4 ‘feet from her husband fired two shots from a pistol which she had bought and kept hidden in the house for several months and that after the shooting she told a State police- man she should have done it long " Life Threatened, She ‘Says. Then Mrs. Spurrier told her story of thirteen years of married life, marked by privation, abuse and threats against her life, and of the shooting in front of the Spurrier home near Finkstown on the night of July 27. She had bought a pis- tol and frequently carried it, she said, because her husband hed threatened many times in recent years to kill her. On the night he was killed he had left their home saying he was going to get some whisky and when he came back he was “going to put her light out.” After he returned he attacked her, ripped her dress from her shoulders, and tried to wrench the pistol from her. Foley Naylor, a visitor at the home, who was a State witness, sep- arated them, and she fell to her knees. Her husband started toward her a second time as she knelt, she said, and she fired, holding the pis- tol with both hands close to her breast. Six Neighbors Testify. Her testimony was followed by that of six neighbors, including Clarence Forrest, stepfather of Spurrier, who testified Mrs. Spurrier was abused by her husband, who was. twelve years her senior, and told of threats against her life. Naylor, the only one who saw the shooting, was the principal State witness. He told of separating the Spurriers at the start of their quar- rel but said Mrs. Spurrier was stand- ing and her husband crouching and advancing toward her when she; fired. A niece, Miss Gertrude Spurrier, told -how Mrs. Spurrier had hidden. the pistol in the house; a neighbor told of its purchase. and testimony of the sheriff and State licemen, who in- vestigated the shooting and of the doctor who performed the autopsy, completed the State’s case... _- Petersburg Leaf Mart _ Is Strong and Active Special to The Washington Post.
