BY THE W ALIBI SPURNED IN RUM DUSTER OF POLICEMAN Miller Is Dismissed for’ Drinking and Firing Wild Shots. : SUICIDE STORY FAILS TO CONVINCE BOARD} Another Discharged, One Penalized and Two are Released. WITNESS GIVES NEW VERSION BUT IN VAIN Father of Eight Gets Off With Warning to Heed Bank Payments. Two policemen were dismissed, a minor penalty was given another, and a fourth was acquitted of charges by the Police Trial Board yesterday. An- other was released with a warning. R. S. Miller, Third Precinct private, e@ppeared for trial, accompanied by his wife and his year-old daughter, Jacqueline, who frequently called for “daddy” during the hearing. He was charged with intoxication, conduct prejudicial to the good order and reputation of the Police Department, and with firing « pistol unnecessarily and not ‘in line of duty. His story, substantiated by the man he claimed to have aided and who contradicted his own previous testi- mony in order to save the policeman, was that he had sought to save from suicide a man whom he knew only as “Mac,” a counterman in «a lunch- room where Miller stopped occasion- elly for a midnight snack. Drinks and Falis Asleep. “Mac” had told him, Miller said, that his wife lay at the point of ‘that the policeman remain with bim becamse he was afraid to be alone with himsel ‘itrwtedespondent mood. At last, Miller said, he acceded to “Mac’s” ufging and had gone with the man to a Chinese restaurant and later to ““iac’s” apartment, where he planned.to get the man to bed and then go on home to his own wife and baby. But “Mac” eat up drinking, Miller said, and after the policeman had taken one drink, he, overcome by the strain of a hard Gay's work, fell asleep. While Miller slept, he _ testified, “Mac” took the policeman’s service pistol and fired two shots through the apartment wall, narrowly missing two girls sleeping in adjoining quar- ters. The noise awoke him, he said, although at the time he thought it was the sound of a chair or table we- ing pushed over. “Mac” Contradicts Self. Awakening, he said his first thought was of “Mac,” who was discovered to have left the apartment, leaving Miller’s service gun on the floor. Just as he was putting the gun in his pocket, he said, two policemen from his own precinct rapped on the door, summoned by complaint of another tenant, and took him to his own home. “Mac,” arrested later, at first de- clared that Miller had fired the two shots, but yesterday retracted this statement and said that he, and not the policeman, had done the shoot- ing. His first story, he said, had been told under the stress of trying to get himself “out from behind the bars.” Many Character Witnesses. Miller’s attorney, Maurice M. Grudd, made an impassioned appeal in which he declared that although his client possibly was “careless” in leaving his pistol where the man he was sup- posed to “protect” could get it, and in taking “one drink”—which Miller had admitted—nevertheless the po- liceman “had only done what any policeman, particularly one who is himself a father, would do when an- other father pleaded with him that way.” " Numerous character witnesses were called by Miller, including a former representative in Congress, an official of the Department of Justice, and several Washington business and pro- fessional men. But the Trial Board Was not moved, and ordered Miller's dismissal. The board also recommended diés- missal of Policeman J. M. Crawford, of the Ninth Precinct, who was found intoxicated in a speak-easy by two policemen sént there in answer to a complaint.

HINTS OF PLAN FOR MYSTERY FEAT Explorer of North and South Poles Is Getting Set for “Sensation.” HAIR HAS, TURNED GREY. Rear ‘Richard BE, Byrd, who has fiown over both the north: and south poles afid driven a plane across the Atlantic, is planning another ‘ sen- sational feat. “Tt I were to say what I am gomg to do next,” he said today, “my re- marks would cause a sensation.” Admiral Byrd, whose hair has become gray within the fourteen months just ended during which he flew over the south pole and mapped 280,000 square miles of ice, smilingly declined to say whether he contemplated a return to the antarctic. Pointing out that the American claim lay in Antarctica entirely out- side the Ross dependency, a British settlement, Admiral Byrd said there was nothing in the situation likely to cause controversy. When it was pointed out that there still were vast unexplored territories beyond the great barrier of the ant- arctic, particularly between the Bay of Wales and Deception Island, Ad- miral Byrd turned to the immediate Plans of his present expedition. His vessels, the City of New York and the Eleanor Bolling, he said, should be able to start for New York through the Panama Canal next Wed- nesday or Thursday. Scars of ice floes and blizzards are being removed in drydocks and the ships are being re- fitted. Discussing the scientific results of the expedition, Dr. Lawrence Gould, its geologist, said that the finding of coal on Mount Nansen conviced htm that until recent geological time the antarctic frigid zone has possessed either a tropical or subtropical cli- mate abounding in vegetable life in- Continued-on Page 4, Column 4.

By CARLISLE BARGERON. The name of Heber J. Grant, head of the Mormon Church, was brought ‘into the Senate tariff fight yesterday as the Democratic-Progressive coali- tion went down further in defeat. | The new combination in control of the bill headed by Senator Grundy overturned previous votes against plate glass and window glass and placed the originally proposed rates on them but it did shirk from Grundy’s naive demand for a $1.40 rate on pig iron. And subsequently, Senator Smoot |withdrew his pending compromise amendment for a rate of 714 cents a pound on sheet aluminum when it appeared that it would result in lengthy debate. The coalition had previously slashed the aluminum rate ané@ by Smoot’s action the coalition | rates stood, the strategy of the regu- lars apparently being to straighten this matter out in eonference.

Grant's name was brought into the controversy when Senator Blaine, of Wisconsin, said he had been in formed that Grant had been here lobbying for the sugar tariff and de- manded that the pending reconsidera- tion of the sugar vote be withheld until Grant could be summoned be- fore the lobby committee. Grant, who is also connected with the Utah-Idaho Sugar Co., had been here “attempting to bring certain in- fluences to bear on members of the Senate,” Blaine said he had been in- formed by persons who observed him on his recent visit here. “I think this is of sufficient seri- ousness to command the attention of the lobby committee,”’ he declared.

The French and British naval chief remain firmly déadlocked tonight 6n the French tonnage figures, despite the mediatory efforts of Ambassador Dwight W. Morrow, United States oe sd server” at their discussions. Secretary of State Stimson ont former Premier Reijiro Wakateuki have made practically no progres te-+ ward a Japanese- American despite persistent reports to the eon· trary. ‘ The conference subcommittee seek- ing to draft an agreement on human- izing submarine warfare hes got in such a tangle that it has practically decided to throw up the sponge and is expected to report failure to agree. : In view of this absence of progress toward solution of any of the critical questions facing the Londen meval conference, it is not surprising thet reports of the parley’s collapse have begun to circulate. Briand Looks to Italy. But these are premature. Warnings given here a week ago against the op- timism then current méy now be ep- plied to the extreme pessimists. How- ever much the five-power parley may fall short of its aims, there are many cards to be played before it will be safe to talk of failure. In the gloomy, circumstances of the moment, considerable importance at- taches to two statements made to- night, one by Foreign Minister Aristide Briand to French correspondents, and the other to the New York World News Service On behalf of an equally important British authority. Briand said he gives the conference a fortnight longer. If any concessions are to be made, he said, Prembier An- dre Tardieu can make them. The veteran French statesman added that he asked Secretary Stimson today to try to induce the Italians to give their tonnage figures, remarking that France has supplied all her figures and can go no further until Italy is heard from. Stimson, said Briand, replied that he had already tried and failed. Warns Against Pessimism. Briand referred to whta he called Stimson’s statement of yesterday ¢z- plaining that the United States will not join a consultative pact because of fear lest it might appear to involve the United States in a moral obliga- tion to intervene in dangerous cif- cumstances. Briand’s ironical com- ments on this boiled down to the argument thet the United States and Great Britain called this éonference conference results asked, is not Stimson then on his own argument morally obliged to do some- thing about it as « signatory to the Kellogg-Briand pact upon which tne conference rests? Predicting that the conference wilt end within s fortnight, Briand warned | his hearers against pessimism, for, he said, there will be an agreement here for five years, there will be nq War within that time, and within the next: five years the general mame conference will meet at Geneve: and will find certain agreements made _ NEWS

She authoritative tion of the British viewpoint to the New York World News Service represe Prime Minister MacDonald as unable to see his way out of the tangle caused by the French demands in re- lation to the Rapidan agreement. Dilemma Facing Britain. The British dilemma was thus ex- Plained: Great Britain strongly ob- jects to French submarines and will have to maintain 200,000 tons of de- stroyers against them, an increase of 50,000 tons over the figurés tenta- tively agreed with Stimson; but Great Britain’s main alarm is about French cruisers. France proposes, it has been ad- mitted by the French naval minister In the conversations now proceeding with First Lord of the Admiralty A. V. Alexander and Ambassador Mor- row, to have ten 8-inch-gun cruisers in commission in five years and two more by 1938. Against these twelve the British would have only 15 un- der the provisional agreement with America. They can build 18, but only @t the cost of robbing their light cruiser category of 30,000 tons, which is impossible. Therefore, the British informant pointed out, an increase of British cruiser forcés appears inevitable and the British are greatly worried as to the effect this will have on the United States when they are com- pelled to make it public officially. Position of English. Assuming fifteen big British cruls- ers in the water against ten French in 1936, the British, it is said, would be inferior in this category against France in European waters. The rea- son given for this is that out of the British total of fifteen, one would be kept in Australian waters, another in New Zealand and four others on re- mote stations, leaving only nine in European waters, the channel, the North Sea and the Mediterranean, a mumerical inferiority against France alone without invoking a two-power European standard against France and Italy. Such a situation public opinion and Parliament would not tolerate for a moment, the New York World News Service was told, while the whole board of the admiralty would resign instantly if such an agreement was suggested. Yet the only alternative is to bulld at least eighteen big cruisers. possibly nineteen — the admiralty wants twenty—and 50,000 tons more in destroyers, while at the same time refusing to reduce agreed light cruiser tonnage. That is the pill the Americans, who thought they had an agreed parity with Great Britain, will have to swal- low, and there is authority for stating that the prime minister at present sees no alternative to suggesting that if the United States wants parity she will have to revise her figures upward. French Needs Undefined. An estimate made by a high finan- cial personage recently that the French program will force the Britieh naval estimates up 850,000,000 a year in future implies that the American estimates would go up much more than this in addition to sums already calculated if parity is to remain the American aim. Although First Lord of the Admir- alty Alexander and Minister of Marine Jacques-Louis Dumesnil were supposed to be trying to agree on common sta- tistical language, aided by Ambassador Morrow, they spent most their time today arguing about France's absolute needs. These M. Dumesnil refused to define in the face of persistent ques- tions from Mr. Alexander. The British first lord of the ad- miralty said British opinion would demand to know why France now claims a much higher ratio against Great Britain than ever before in modern history. In 1895, at the time of the Anglo-French war scare, he said, Prance had only 35 per cent of British tonnage. ‘The highest she ever reached, just before the Anglo-Ger- man building race, was 39 per cent. Yet today she asks 65 per cent of the whole and in some categories as much as 80 per cent. Why? Alexander kept asking, but he got no satisfaction, Dumesnil steadily refusing to explain wWehat he called the “absolute needs” of France against “relative needs” which would. be a subject of discus- sion only if France were guaranteed naval security. Submarine Issue Flounders. The submarine subcommittee is at @ standstill because the Americans ate trying to get the Root convention for humanizing undersea craft adopted with as small changes as possible and the French refuse to admit a clause penalizing the commanders of sub- mersibles which attack other vessels. Nor have the experts who have been discussing the size of submarines been able to get anywhere, with the French demanding submarines up to 3,000 tons. It appears almost certain. that all these questions will be given up and deposited on the doorsteps of the big five. There are curious reports current of a near agreement resulting from a conference this morning between Stimson, Senator ‘Reed, Wakatsuki and Ambassador Salto. Unfortunate- ly, these are completely unfounded. U. S.-Japan Dispute. From an authoritative Japanese source it was learned late tonight that American demands would leave Japan in a position after 1936 which she regards as impossible. Not only would the 70 per cent.big cruiser ra- tio be destroyed after that year as new American crulsers took the water but the Japanese authority caviled at what he said was a new American proposal that Japan should keep her present figure of 78,000 tons of sub- marines, but not replace them. This, said my informant, would mean that Japan would have only 40,000 tons of serviceable submarines in 1936, a prospect Tokyo can not tolerate. Restive parliamentary opinion on the conference was indicated at ques- tion time in the House of Commons today. Admiral Tifton Beamish, Tory, asked Philip Snowden, in the absence of the prime minister, whether he would convey “the very generally ex- pressed opinion that no agreement is better than a partial one between the oceanic powers.” The chancellor of the exchequer remarked simply that he would. Warm Debates Anticipated. First Lord of the Admiralty Alex- ander said the British admiralty has canceled 66,000 tons of battleship construction in the last two years. “No tonnage, so far as I am aware, has been canceled by the other pow- ers,” he added. Snowden told Ellen Wilkinson, La- bor, that the government p course. THICKER IN CAPITAL Weakness of MacDonald in Parliament Increases Pessimism Here, FRENCH FAVOR LEAGUE - ' By ALBERT W. FOX. The demonstrated weakness of Prime Minister MacDonald in the British Parliament and intimations from the French that the naval limi- tation problem should be turned over to the League of Nations for solution have thickened the atmosphere of pessimism here respecting the fate of the London conference. Acting Secre- tary of State Cotton had no word of encouragement yesterday and con- firmed the general impression that no progress is in sight, though he de- clined to discuss the situation. The fact that Premier MacDonald refused to resign in the face of an adverse vote in the House of OCom- mons caused no su here. The labor leader had previously informed his followers that he would not re- linquish his grip on the premiership unless compelled to by defeat on a major issue. The impression here, based on from American dele- gation quarters in London, is that Premier MacDonald's tenure is rea- sonably safe until April 14, when the Labor budget is submitted to the House of Commons for approval. This date is conceded to be the major test for Premier MacDonald and for this reason he is known to be particularly anxious to bring about some positive achievement at the con- ference before that date. Should the conference still be in the doldrums early next month, the chances of the Labor government will admittedly be seriously affected, especially as do- mestic issues in Great Britain are be- coming daily more troublesome and unsatisfactory. Briand Makes First Hint. M. Briand has given the first hint of the French government's belief that the work now in progress at London should be concluded without definite agreement among the powers and then turned over to the prepara- tory commission of the League of Na- tions, which has been wrestling for several years with the disarmament problem pursuant to article 8 of the league covenant, which is as follows: “The members o the league recog- nize that the maintenance of peace requires the reduction of national armaments to the lowest point con- sistent with national safety and the enforcement by common action of international obligations. “The council, taking account of the geographical situation and circum- stances of each state, shall formulate plans for such reduction for the con- sideration and action of the several governments. “Buch plans shall] be subject to re- consideration and revision at least every ten years. After these plans have been adopted by the several gov- ernments, the limits of armaments therein fixed shall not be exceeded without the concurrence of the coun- cil.” Tardieu Helped Draft Pian. M. Tardieu, as representative of Prance, helped draw up this provision and France has steadfastly supported this program and accepted the in- vitation to the London conference only with the understanding that the work st London would be preliminary to final decisions reached by the League of Nations under article 8. M. Briand has all along maintained that the work at London should merely be preliminary to a later con- ference under the league covenant. Despite the deadlock at the present London conference, the discussions are understood to be regarded by Tardieu and Briand as valuable in connection with future work of the league pre- paratory commission. A formal sug- gestion by France to turn the work over to the league commission is ex- pected to be one of the remedies later offered to amicably conclude the Lon- don discussions. Power Regulation Urged by Couzens Government Supervision Is Proposed in Senate Measure. (Associated Press.) Strict Government regulation of companies producing, transmitting or distributing power in Interstate Com- merce was pr in a bill intro- duced yesterday by Senator Couzens (Republican), Michigan. The bill would extend the powers of the Federal Power Commission to bring steam as well as water power produe“on under its supervision. It would provide Government supervis- ion of interstate rates, and of the issuance of securities by holding com- panies. It would require regular re- porting by the companies and their management and holding companies to the commission. The Senate interstate commerce committee, of which Senator Couzens is chairman, already has before it a bill by him proposing reorganization of the Federal Power Commission, which administers the water-power act. It will begin extensive hearings on the new proposal as soon as the first is disposed of, probably this month. ceived various resolutions from public bodies urging further reduction of cruisers and total abolition of battle- ships and submarines. In the House of Commons, where the opinion is spreading that the con- ference is a failure, there is a ten- dency to criticize the French for their tonnage demands and the Americans for their refusal to talk battleships. It was said that if the conference adjourns without success it will be impossible to prevent warm debates on the fioor in which hard words will be used about all the delegations con- cerned, including the British. has re- (Coos right. 1930.) — — — — 4-Piece SPORT SUITS by Haddington Coat, vest, long trousers and knickers in a complete assortment Of “sporty” patterns and sturdy materials, that in- cludes the popular tweeds. coat is especially adaptable for the golf The roomy $35 and $40 Meyer's Shop 1331 F Street PARLEY GLOOM | 4 — es — > CRUCIAL VOTE NEARS: M DONALD (6 SERENE Not Be Ousted for Six Weeks at Least. NAVY PARLEY IS CAUSE London, March 12 (A.P.).—The labor government is having its troubles with the coal bill and un- employment and even faces a vote of censure tomorrow evening, but Prime Minister MacDonald continues his chairmanship of the naval conference confident that he will not be thrown out of office within the next six weeks. British and French politics have afforded puzzling situations to Ameri- cans of the naval conference in the past few weeks, sometimes a defeat meaning one thing and sometimes another, but as far as the present situation in British politics is con- cerned a government defeat on a major issue such as would mean res- ignation, is not expected by political circles coal bill, but doesn’t seem disturbed. He boldly invited his conservative op- ponents to extend their vote of cen- sure set for tomorrow night so that the Liberals could join them and throw him out, but he is confident they will not do that. Pledges Still Hold. In fact, long before the naval con- ference convened, Mr. MacDonald had the pledges of the Conservative and Liberal leaders that the disarmament negotiations were of prime impor- tance and that the Labor government, although in a minority in the House of Commons, would be given a fair opportunity for carrying them out. That pledge holds as strongly today as it did two months ago. Still, on a controversial party ques- tion such as the coal bill, the parties must muster their strength, it being a domestic issue, and they do as they did last night. But by means of con- tacts the party leaders meintain with one another behind their fighting lines, the Conservative and Liberals knew that the prime minister would not take the rebuff seriously and resign. Had the question been a vote of censure, the situation would have been entirely different. Mr. MacDon- ald would have said: “If you defeat me on this vote, the government will resign.” This will be the position tomorrow night on issues which will be definitely labeled a yote of censure. Baldwin Might Be Next. Just what would happen to the naval conference should the party pledges be broken and the rank get out of hand—a possible but improb- able contingency—is the subject of widest speculation. Mr. MacDonald could resign, but the king probably would tell him to carry on until the naval conference was out of the way. The king might ask former Premier Baldwin, the Conservative leader, to form a government. Mr. Baldwin, however, probably would decline on account of the weak- ness of his party in the House and explain to the monarch that Mr. Mac- Donald's defeat was all a mistake and recommend that the labor leader be called back to form another govern- ment. Mr. MacDonald's alternative to resignation would be to ask the king to dissolve Parliament for a general- election. District to Condemn Land for High Schools The District Commissioners yester- day began proceedings to condemn several parcels of land in the North- east section for the enlargement of the sites of the McKinley High School and the Langley Junior High School. The parcels are designated as lots 804, 810, 812, 813 and 815, all situated ad- jacent to the present sites of the schools near First street northeast. The property is unimproved except for garages, the petition sets out. Proceedings are brought under the District code as amended by an act of Congress of March I, 1929, which gives the District the right to con- demn land for school purposes.

The United States Supreme Court refused yesterday to pass on the claim of Madeline Padgett and six other District public school teachers that in the reclasification and rear- rangement of salaries under the act of June, 1924, they were not given proper increases for longevity. About $500,000 in back salaries was involved. The question of whether longevity pay mounting to $200 a year should be added to the higher salary sched- ules was raised in the case. The Dis- trict had contended that the longevity increases had already been considered in fixing the new basic salaries in the 1924 act. The Municipal Court decided in favor of the school teachers. The Dis- trict Court of Appeals, however, up- held the District on three different oc- casions and the teachers asked for & writ of certiorari. JURY FOR DOHENY TRIAL Three Women in Body That Will Pass on Alleged Bribe by Oil Man. — IS CHEERFUL ACCUSER (Associated Press.) Three women and nine men were selected yesterday to decide the guilt or innocnce of Edwerd L. Doheny of bribery. The wealthy oil operator is on trial on an indictment charging that he gave $100,000 to Albert B. Fall, former Secretary of the Interior, for the award to his company of & lease to the Elk Hills, Calif., naval oll reserve. Justice William Hitz, presiding over the trial in the District of Columbia Supreme Court, ordered the jury kept under guard and together until its verdict is handed down. As soon as it was sworn, he recessed the court | until today when the Government will make its opening statement and will be followed by the defensé. The statements are expected to require the entire day and if they do not documentary evidence will be intro- duced. The jury was finally chosen near the end of the afternoon session after counsel for both sides had questioned 35 men and women. Its average age is 40 years. The members are: Personnel of Jury. Luther W. James, Negro automo- bile mechanic, 39; Lawrence P. Mc- Williams, chain store manager, 45; Clarence Cantor, street car conductor, 46; Archiband Gill, chauffeur, 52; Mrs. Chrissie Vollmer, house wife, 49; Isaac Dengler, laundry worker, 43; Miss Jean Yeagle, stenographer, 26; R. Bernard Beckert, hotel clerk, 33; Emory H. English, office worker, 45; Miss Margaret Mannix, stenographer, 23; Conrad Fitts, construction com- pany employe, 47, and Chelsey ". Ray, transportation agent, 47. Before selection of the jury, Justice Hitz overruled a defense plea that to place Doheny on trial for bribery would be to put him in double jeop- ardy, in view of the acquittal of Doheny and Fall four years ago on charges of conspiring to defraud the Government growing out of the same lease. The first panel of 26 men and women was exhausted just before the noon recess without the jury having been chosen. The Government exer- cised ten challenges, the defense nine and four prospective jurors were ex- cused for cause. Doheny Appears Cheerful. Doheny sat beside his counsel and took a lively interest in the selec- tion of the twelve persons who will decide his case. Mrs. Doheny sat with friends in the spectators section of the court room. Frank J. Hogan, Doheny’s chief counsel, said that the 78-year-old defendant, was cheerful and convinced that he would be ac- quitted. Counsel for both the Government and defense expressed the opinion that the trial would require about three weeks. The Government charges that Do- heny sent Fall $100,000 on November 30, 1921, as a bribe for later award of a lease of the naval oj] reserve to. the Pan-American Petroleum and Transportation Co. Prior to this award the company had been awarded a contract to construct naval oi] storage tanks at Pearl Har- bor, Hawaii, and that contract con- tained a clause giving the company preference to the Elk Hill lease. Loan View Is Maintained. Doheny and Fall have maintained that the money was a loan to an old friend who was in need, Fall saying that he wished to purchase a ranch next to his ranch in New Mexico. Doheny has testified in previo trials that he bid on the Pearl Har contract omy after being urged to do so by Rear Admiral J. K. Robison, who represented Secretary of the Navy Denby. He said that Admiral Robison painted a distressing picture of danger to the Pacific Coast States from a foreign power unless the Navy had oil enough at Pearl Harbor to prevent an alien fleet from approach- ing the West Coast. The same story was. told in the trial last October of Fall on charges of accepting money as a bribe. Fall was found guilty by the jury and sentenced to serve one year in prison and pay a fine of $100,000. He is now free on bond pending appeal. He wil] not be present at the Doheny trial, dué to illness. Will of S. Kann Aids Two Charities $50,000 Is Left to Capital and Baltimore Agencies; Rest to Family.

The remainder of the estate is to be divided among his widow, Mrs. Gertrude 8S. Kann, and two children. Executors of the estate are Mrs. Kann, Sol Kann, a son, and B. Bernei Bur- gunder, a son-in-law. Mr. Kann, who was president of the 8. Kann & Sons Co., department store, died suddenly in Baltimore of a heart attack. He was 64 years old. Census Methods of David Praised by U. S. Official Dr. W. M. Steuart, in Talk Giving Evolution of Ways of Tabulating Population, Says King of Israel Used Inclosure Holding Certain Number. Atlanta, March 12 (A.P.)-—Evolu- tion in census taking methods was cited here today by Dr. William M. Steuart, Director of the Census, who compared the manner in which King David counted his subjects with reg- ulations covering the enumeration of American citizens, prescribed in the Constitution for the first census in 1790. Count of the 1790 population of 17 States was made according to a pro- vision of the constitution which has served as a guide for census directors each ten years since. The total ulation then @as a little less 4,000,000. King David, Dr. Steuart pointed out, counted over 4,000,000 people by using an inclosure in which a certain number of persons could stand. A quick enumeration was needed, so the entire population of Israel was caused to enter the inclosure a group at 4 time, and a tally sheet showing the n number of times the inclosure was filled, furnishing a count of the pop- ulation. Dr. Steuart paid tibute to the statesmanship of Moses, who, he said, was probably the first man to take a census. Moses and Aaron numbered the Children of Israel in the wilder- ness of Binai about the year 1489 B. C.. or two years after the exodus from count includes only B. C., Moses and Eleazar, Aaron, took another census of the Israelites on the Plains of Moab. This time all the people were counted and the total was 601,730. Dr. Steuart spent three days in Atlanta giving district supervisors for Georgia, Fiorida, North and South Garolins careful instructions for take ing the 1990 census contains April 2. THE WASHINGTON POST: THURSDAY, MARCH 13, 1930. IN FRUIT FLY DRIVE 7 Says Same Official Could Be e Jailed for Plot to Ruin ’ Florida Citrus Trade. $5,000,00 WASTE IS SEEN President Hoover wag told bluntly yesterday by Representative Will R. Wood (Republican), Indiana, chair- man of the House appropriations committee, that the Government had wasted close to $5,000,000 in money and has destroyed $60,000,000 worth of the Florida citrus growers’ in ite “eradication” of the ter- ranean fruit fiy there. * in the ot Agriculture could be indicted fof con- apiracy to destroy the Florida citrus industry and could be convicted,” Mr, Wood said to newspapermen, after hig talk with the President. Made First Hand Survey. Mr. Wood, who, in addition to being chairman of the powerful ap- propriations committee, is chairman of the congressional campaign com- mittee, had just returned from a trip to Florida, made for the p surveying at firat hand what was being done there with the large sums appropriated by Congress for the fruit fly eradication work. “Practical fruit men estimated,” he said, “that the work which the Gov- ernment has spent $6,000,000 for. could have been done for $1,500,000. There is quite a little inefficiency there.” The worst “pests” from which the Florida fruit growers have suffered, Mr. Wood declared, are the entoniclo- gists, or “bugologists,”’ as he called them. Says Situation Overemphasized. “These fellows and others ‘have broadcast throughout the- country posters showing highly magnified pic- tures of infected fruit and of the fruit fly,” he said. “They have done great harm, in that way, to the Flor- ida fruit growers and have acted in what seems to me to have been with- out just cause.” ' “Considering the mess we have gotten the Florida fruit growers into,” Chairman Wood said, he believed it wise to continue a rigid inspection of the Pilorida citrue fruit at the ex- pense of the Government. The ap- propriations. however, he _ stated, should be kept down and well under the present program. Mr. Wood declined to state the ex- act amount that would be «a priated, or to give further details to his charges of wadte and inefficiency. Japanese Flight Is Engineer’s Plan Diesel Turbine Engines Will Be Used to Propel Huge Craft. Leonia, N. J.. March 12 (A.P.).—J. Morton Stelling, local aeronautical engineer, plans to take off from San Prancisco about May 1, on a non- stop flight to Nagasaki, Japan, a dis- tance of 9,300 miles, he told the As- sociated Press today. The undertak- ing will be for commercial and scien- tific purposes. Sterling said an F-201 tri-motored monoplane of his own design, power- ed with three Diesel turbine engines; would be used. The plane has six propellers, driven by shaft through the wing, a new device in airplane construction. The huge motors will be housed inside the fuselage rather .than under the wings. The crew will consist of eight, Stelling said. He declined, however, to reveal their identity, or to name the backers of the prospect at this time. The ship, built at a Paterson plant, already has undergone success- ful test flights, he said. Part in Kidnaping Late Candidate for Office Proposed Extortion Plot, Suspect Declares. Pine Bluff, Ark., March 12 (A.P.).— A recent candidate for a State office was named today in a reported con- fession by an alleged confederate as the originator of a plot to kidnap and rob and extort money from L.

Sapp, 42, told officers, they said, that he and his nephew, Emry Majoe, 28, took Quattlebaum into the woods a week ago today, robbed him of dia- monds, bound him to a tree and threatened him with death, unless -he sent $1,200 in cash to them last Sat- urday. Sapp said he received $12.50 for his work. The $1,200 was to be delivered to H. Bradley Jobe, Arkansas politician, and Sapp said, according to officers, : that .Jobe pro ‘the affair three weeks ago in his Shreveport office. No charge has been filed against Jobe in’ connection with the plot. . Jobe two years ago was a candidate for State commissioner of mines, manu- factures and agriculture.

GIVEN WARM RECEPTION (Associated Press.) The Hoover Law Enforcement Com- missidh was asked yesterday to de- termine whether 2.75 per cént beer is monintoxzicating and whether a change in the Volstead law to permit manufacture would aid enforcement. Representative Dyer (Republican), Missouri, ranking member of the House judiciary “committee and author of a bill to legalize 2.75 per cent beer, said after appearing before the commission for an hour and 4 half that he had received a “ cor- dia!) and satisfactory reception.” He declined, however, to say whether the attitude of the commission toward his proposal had been indicated. * FI =a omg —— Missourian asked the group to a. of policy and — invol in legalizing a higher percentage of alcohol content and re- port Sort On its findings. There exists, he said, a great body of public opinion against the dry laws and rigorous enforcement of them. Mr. Dyer said Congress was disin- élined enact legislation which was not whole-heartedly in support of the eighteenth amendment, but was none the less compelled to consider any measure which would aid in a fair execution of the mandate. “There seems to be,”” Mr. Dyer said, “a substantially universal assent to the proposition that one-half of 1 per cent alcohol is far below the intoxicating ratio of alcohol to the beverage solv- ent in which alcohol is present.” He cited a number of authorities who had so held and pointed out that the eighteenth amendment “doés not prohibit intoxicating iiquor for any other purpose than beverage use, neither does it define intoxicating liquor” and declartd that home-made wine and cider of from 6 to 12 per cent is permitted under the law. Millions of houvrehdliders, he con- tinued, are manufacturing 4 to 6 per eent beer, and “the Federal Prohibi- tion. Bureau has not made any serious effort to interfere with the manufac- ture of beer in the home, probably upon the theory that it would be highly inconsistent to arrest and prosecute householders for the. viola- tions of the national prohibition act for making beer of a lesser alcoholic content than wines and ciders, the legality of which is fully recognized.” “Millionaire” Is Facing Divorce From Actress Pittsburgh, Pa., March 12 (A.P.).—- Description of John Brody, jr., 26, as a “Pittsburgh millionaire,” was said to be exaggerated by his brother, Charlies Brody, of Zanesville, Ohio, in commenting here today on suit for divorce filed in Chicago, by Fran- ces Miller Brody, actress, who married Brody in New York, March 1.

This creed held the buyer of liquor equally guilty with the seller, advo- cated personal liberty for women who have “endured personal slavery through drunken husbands,” and called for’ organization of citizens’ public safety groups, recognized and approved by the Government to “safe- guard observance and enforcement of law through the regular channels of Government.” Vast Improvement Seen. From every angle and type of or- ganization and from nearly every sec- tion of the country, the women’s arguments were assembled by Mrs. Peabody, and they all declared that prohibition, even though not well enforced inm- some regions, constituted a vast improvement over the pre- prohibition conditions. _Under later questioning by wet members of committee, the wit- nesses reitera their contentions and avoided drawn away from the line of their direct testimony. They frequently sought rulings on the admissibility of the questions. Mrs. John F. Sippel, of Baltimore, president of the General Federation of Woman's Clubs, was the first wit- ness. She came to Washington ac- companied by three men, presumably to guard her. She said she had been threatened if she should appear. Her organization had 14,500 clubs in the/ United States and willed that the eighteenth amendment be carried out. Others Put on Stand. Among the other witnesses were Mrs. Clarence 'Praim, legislative chair- man of the Genera] Federation; Mrs. F.

Asserting that the National Woman's Democratic Law Enforce- ment League af 200,000 women is satisfied with the prohibition law, Mrs. Nicholson said she had listened to testimony given “by attorneys for brewers and others and I have been amazed at some of the statements made before this honorable commit- tee.” Definite Pians Lacking, @laim. “Not one witness,” she said, “who has spoken before this committee has had a definite workable plan if the eighteenth amendment were re- pealed.”’ Miss Olson told the committee the government of Sweden considered the Bratt plan of controlling liquor a failure and she asserted it was en- tirely imadequate and did not pro- hibit ftllegal traffic. The wets were charged by Mrs. Tilson with having no constructive alternative to offer for prohibition. She said if their efforts for repeal were successful it would mean the return of the old saloon. The National League of American Pen Women was represented by its president, Mrs. Busch, as favoring prohibition. Under crossexamination she said the tourists in Florida, her home State, were responsible for most of the liquor law violations there, while the natives were “improving.” Mr. LaGuardia asked her to join him in securing an adequate Coast Guard «force just before the season starts at Miami next year, in order to dry up that city. She said she would. Conditions Better on Coast, Claim. Former Mayor Landes of Seattle said prohibition had improved condi- tions in the State of Washington and expressed belief that the law could be enforced, but not 100 per cent. The wets, she said, composed of men and women who could afford the “high cost of drinking,” were asking the Government to break down the pro- tective law the eighteenth amend- ment had built up around women and children. ' Asked by Chairman Graham and Mr. LaGuardia to identify the “attor- arch | neys for brewers,” who she said had appeared as wet witnesses, Mrs. Nich- olson said that she had gained the impression that Henry 8S. Curran, president of the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment, repre- sénted brewers. Mr. LaGuardia leaped to his feet and shouted: “Why, Curran is a newspaper man. He never tried a case or represented anybody in his life.” “If the gentleman from New York wants to make statements of his own, let him take the witness stand,” de- manded Representative Sparks, Re- publitan, Kansas. La Guardia Pounds Desk. The New Yorker pounded the desk and said: “The gentleman from Kansas and any one else can shout all he wants to, but when unjustified attacks are made on my friend, Mr. Curran, I am going to fight, ‘and I don’t care whether the committee members like it or not.” Mrs. Nicholson then produced a list of breweries she said had con- tributed tothe association against the prohibition amendment. She read a dozen names before Chairman Graham halted her with the remark that the reading of the contributors did not answer the question of Rep- resentative La Guardia to name specifically one attorney in the em- ploy of a brewery who had appeared. Sthie said she did not remember the attorney’s name. Mr. La Guardia then demanded that the names of the contributors to the Anti-Saloon League, including that of Mr. Kresge of the five and ten cent store chain, be filed with the committee at the proper time.

ON GUILT OF PURCHASER (Associated Press.) Whether the purchaser of illicit liquor is guilty of a crime under the prohibition law was laid before the Supreme Court yesterday for deter- mination. Citing the diversity of opinion ex- pressed by various judges as to the legal culpability of the liquor buyer, the Department of Justice appealed | to the highest tribunal against the | decision of Federal Judge Morton at | Boston, holding Congress expressly excluded the purchaser from the pe- nal provisions of the act. Judge Morton sustained the con- tention of James E. Farrar, the de- fendant in the case, that section 6, title 2, of the national prohibition act, under which the Government | sought to convict him, referred only | to those legally entitled to buy and sell liquor under permits, such as druggists and hospitals. The controverted section says that no person shall sell, barter, trans-. port or purchase liquor without first obtaining a permit. Section 3 of the Volstead act was | held by the Boston jurist to con- tain the enforcement provisions, and he said this part clearly eliminated any liability on the part of the pur- chaser. “Not only did Congress carefully exclude the purchaser from the pe- | the act as origi- | said, | to ex-| nal provisions of nally passed,” Judge Morton “put it has taken no steps tend its provisions to the purchaser in the ten years of legislation which has since intervened.” The Boston case is the second brought before the Supreme Ceurt involving the purchaser of liquor. Previously the tribunal had been asked by Attorney General Mitchell to determine whether a conspiracy charge against a buyer could be sus- tained under the law. 17 Soviet Officials Granted U.S. Entry — —_ — — — Three Will Be Following Detention at Ellis Island. New York, March 12 (A.P.).—Seven- teen Russians, members of a group | of 20 representatives of the Soviet | government, were permitted to enter the United States today after having | been detained Island. The other three members of the party, a man, wife and child, were excluded on the ground that they might become public charges. They will be returned to Russia. The Russians, who are said to have come to the United States as repre- sentatives of the Soviet to study American industrial methods, arrived here yesterday afternoon on the White Star’ liner Majestic. Immi- gration officials said that there was nothing “unusual” in their _deten- tion, although a party of 60 Soviet representatives which arrived here three weeks ago was admitted with- out question. Returned Clubman Severely Hurt In Fall at Polo Match Palm Beach, Fla., March 12 (AP.). B. Nason Hamlin, sportsman and clubman, of Dedham, Mass., received serious injuries today when his mount fell into a ditch as he was playing a practice polo match at the Phipps Polo Grounds at Gulf Stream, about 18 miles south of here. He was taken to a hospital at West Palm Beach, where it was said X-ray pictures would be made to determine if he had broken bones or internal injuries. Hamlin has been playing polo at Gulf Stream for several days follow- ing a visit to Palm Beach. He is said to be noted as a polo star in Boston and is a member of the Norfolk Hunt Club, of Dedham, and the Somerset Club, in Boston. Woman and Servant, 90, Burned to Death in Fire | Canton, Miss., March 12 (AP.).— Miss Annie Harter, 60 years old, and her 90-year-old Negro servant, Martha Cheatham, were burned to death here today in a fire that destroyed a store and damaged the Trolio Hotel. The loss was estimated by firemen and the owners at $100,000 The two women were trapped in the bedroom of Miss Harter on the upper floor of the store building, which she owned, and were burned to death as scores of spectators looked on outside, powerless to rescue them. All guests in the hotel escaped with- out injury. A number of other bus!i- ness concerns suffered losses. MARCH | Women Dry Law Advocates Present ‘‘Political Creed”’ 13. 1930. — — — — — — — House Judiciary Group Gets Document at Hearing. (Associated © Press.) A fourteen-point “political creed” for 24 hours at Ellis | | of the Woman's National Committee for Law Enforcement was presented to | the House judiciary committee yes- | terday by Mrs. Henry W. Peabody, of Beverly, Mass. Mrs. Peabody, chairman of the or- ganization, appeared before the com- mittee to oppose amendment or re- peal of the eighteenth amediment or the prohibition laws. The creed read: “1. We believe in the Government of the United States, based on the | Constitution, the supreme law of the |land, according to Article VI of the Constitution: | “This Constitution, and the laws of the United States which shall be made in pursuance thereof; * * ° shall be the supreme law of the land; and the judges in every State shall be bound thereby, anything in the |Constitution or laws of any State the contrary notwithstanding.’ “9.

We believe the eighteenth | voted by to the Constitution, voted by 46 out of 48 States in the way prescribed, with a greater ma- binding on States. “4.

No other standard would be safe for children and those not inoculated with alcohol. isting act the buyer is equally guilty with the seller in illicit transactions | , in liquor. “6. We believe that the economic gain resulting from the use of bil- ‘lions of dollars formerly spent in | saloons, speak-easies and lIjquor for | private use now used for better homes, clothing, food, washing and sweeping machines, automobiles, radio, life in- | surance and bank deposits, justifies | this law. “T We believe the moral issue | makes this lAw obligatory for the in- | dividual citizen and the duty of every | church member, and that every 'echurch should teach respect for this law through its priests and ministers. “8B. We believe in personal liberty for women who have endured personal slavery through drunken husbands, and we recommend Paul's interpreta- tion of liberty to certain eminent educators and legislators. “9.

My husband told me that he had not smelied any liquor on a student's breath at his classes since 1920.” important, should be supplemented by discipline; the lawless and criminal found largely among the upper classes and in the underworld. ‘10.

We believe, according to the Constitution, Article VI, that courts of justice should be relieved of preju- |dited judges, often responsibie for the failure of*justice and the break- ing down of law, through protecting the criminal rather than the public. “12. We believe there is no author- ity or precedent for submitting the |Constitution as a whole or in part (to @ national referendum. “13. We believe that the press which has been in the past ana should be now a moral and civic as- | set, ought, without regard to the per- 'sonal opinion of owner and editor, to give fair representation of the views of law-abiding people and the Gov- ernment rather than continue at- | tacks on the law which will not be | repealed, and whose enforcement may be weakened by statements lead- ing to crime and disorder. “14. We believe that in view of the disloyal and dangerous attitude of men and women of wealth and in- fluence and the failure of officials, there should be law enforcement groups of citizens in town, county, State and Nation organized to cor- rect propaganda and safeguard law observance through regular channels. and that regular safety groups of men and women serve without com- pensation and be recognized and ap- proved by the Government.” HUSTON SAYS HE GAVE $50,000 FOR MUSCLE SHOALS PROJECT Continued from Page 1. Shoals was embarrassing to the party leaders.” »1 do not regard any activity that I have ever had in connection with ‘the Tennessee River Improvement As- sociation as embarrassing to my of- fice.” he asserted. Later, he said: to August, 1929, I did everything on earth that I could do, and I am sorty I did not do more, to further the interests of the Tennessee River | Improvement Association. Since Au- gust, 1929, I have done nothing be- cause I resigned, and I resigned seri- ously and quit.” Will Seek Records. Huston suggested that Worthing- ton, who is reported ill at Detroit, be subpenaed. Chairman Caraway has charged Worthington with feign- ing illness in order to “dodge” the committee. The witness said his in- formation was that Worthington is ‘a very ill man,” and added: “Col. Worthington is or is not sick. You can subpena him and determine whether he is or is not sick. It is an injustice to charge him contin- ually with evading appearance if he is physically unable to come and if he is physically able to come I want him here.” Huston added that he would make an attempt to obtain the records de- sired by the committee. He also | promised to attempt to obtain records he kept while treasurer of the asso- ciation, which he said now were in a Chattanooga trust company. Names Several Contributors. Huston added that no questions had ever been raised about the han- diing of funds by the organization “until the question was raised by this committee.” “The people down home are entire- ly satisfied and are not complaining has been going on,” he asserted.

FO URGE BRIDGE PLANS : *Montgomery County probably wil be well represented at the hearing on the Cramton park development bill which will be held tonight at 8 o’clock In the U. 8. Capitol. The hear- ing was postponed from Tuesday night because of the death of former President Taft. “While there is no adequate method of checking which will appear to- might, practically every large organi- vation in the county hag voted to send representatives to the hearing which is considered of vital import- ance to the county. The Montgomery; CGdunty Civic Federation will lead the delegation. Many prominent county leaders are expected to appear and tiake known their views. The bill provides for the contribu- thon of $1,500,000 to Montgomery and Prince Georges Counties for the de- velopment of the park lands project- eg there and the loan of the additional funds needed for the purchase of the mecessary lands which will be loaned without interest for a period of eight years. The Montgomery delegation probably also will urge that the Great Falla bridge project be provided for mA Federal funds at once or the pro- vision in the bill prohibiting toll bridges be withdrawn in order that the bridge can be completed by pri- vate enterprise, The Maryland National Capital Park and Planning Commission prob- ably will postpone its meeting to- night unless some provision for meet- ing after the Cramton hearing is made as al] of the officials of the commission will be present at the Cramton bill hearing.

Rus- sell, commandant of the institution, relative to obtaining the same grounds the cadets have used here- tofore and suggesting the last week of May for the period of the en- campment. Mr. Dettra said Rouss Spring Park grounds, owned by the city, will be used and that the site will be greatly improved by the time the youths ar- rive. There will ‘e approximately 700 cadets in camp and about 50 civilian employes. In the cadet corps will be included the academy band of more than 70 pieces, under the direc- tion of Maj. Thomas Beardsworth. Col. Thomas H. Russell, superin- tendent of the academy, will be senior officer. The tactical work and intensive trainigg, a part of the course of study, will be in charge of an officer of the United States Army. Nearly every State in the Union will be rep- resented at the camp.

By A. H. ULM. In refusing to give further increase to the rate of duty it already had ap- proved for cosein the Senate practi- cally closed its books as to perhaps the most complex series of economic involvements in current tariff revi- sion. In the tangle are the dairy in- dustrty, nearly all fate and oils, many manufactured products and manifold puzzling relatoonsihips, one of the latter being that of this country with the Philippine Islands. Casein is derived from skimmed milk, of which about 10,000,000,000 pounds is produced on farms in this country. Most of this skimmed milk goes to waste. Yet about half of all the casein consumed in this country is imported, the largest part of this coming from Argentina, the foreign country that probably has been most excited by tariff revision develop- ments in the United States. The largest single use of casein is in coated paper, the kind used in the making of well-printed books and magazines. Many efforts have been made to develop a substitue for this use, but the problem is unsolved. But paper that can fairly well take the place of the coated kind is made. It is cheaper than coated paper. This noncasein or supercalendered paper is now used in printing several pop- ular magazines. In a large consump- tive sphere price is the determinant as to which kind of paper is used. “We must import large quantities of casein in order to get enough of the kind we must have,” say the coated paper folk, who assert that a subtle difference in quality is linked with pasturage. Grass feeding of cows yields an element of quality essential to much of their use, they say, and add that a duty merely adds to their costs dis- advantages in competing with manu- facturers of other kinds of paper. Much casein goes into glue and there apparently is no puzzle of qual- ity here. But a large group of glue manufacturers said in substance to Congress: “There should be no duty or the rate should be so high that imports wil} be kept out and a stable price maintained.” The Houte did not increase the present rate of 2), cents a pound. The Senate increased it to 5% cents a pound. Dairying interests asked for 8 cents, which the Senate has refused “If you give us a high rate, pro- duction, which can be without limit, soon will take care of the price fac- tor,” said spokesmen for the dairying interests. This contention finds support in the present situation of dairy prod- ucts in general. Despite high duties, most of them are now selling in thie country on world-price bases, and for the first time since the postwar de- pression dairying finds itself down to par with other major sections of farm- ing. This is because production of dairy products has increased so rapid- ly that when recently there was a slackening of consumption surpluses began to pile up. Increase was facilitated by tariff duties which have kept out af) but an insignificant volume of imports and by extraordinary advance of per capita consumption. This last has been in late years 20 to 25 per cent above the prewar record. Until lately dairying has been in the best situa- tion of any comparable branch of agriculture. But the prosperity of dairying gave encouragment to the exploiting of substitutes for dairy products. The most formidable substitute is nut- margerine, made of cocoanut oll, of which imports have increased enor- mously. This is so like butter and has been so much cheaper that, it was stated in recent discussions of it in the Senate, that many dairymen themselves have been buying “cocoa- nut butter” for their own home use. Cocoanut oil imports come chiefly from the Philippine Islands, where cocoanut growing is the most pervas- ive farm industry. A duty is on co- coanut oi] when it is imported from “foreign” territory. There is none On copra, large quantities of which have been imported.for the procure- ment of oll. In this there is an equa- tion bearing importantly on Ameri- can shipping in the Pacific, copra be- ing one of the major items of freight brought in from the Far East. As it stands, the tariff tends to shift crush- ing to the Philippines. Dairying and other domestic oils and fats interests asked th&t duties be put on the oil content of copra and on oll from the Philippines and from “foreign” area. Both the House and Senate turned them down on this; also on the de- mand that expanding substitution, in many spheres, of imported for do- mestic oils and fats be comprehended by a proviso that no duty on imported Olls and ‘fats be less than 45 per cent ad valorem. The aim of this was the making of all duties effective in de- spite of the fact that this country ordinarily exports annually over a billion pounds of olls and fats—in the main high priced ones which are in substance exchénged largely for lower priced ones produced abroad. Practically all else asked for dairy- ing interests ‘is in the Senate tariff bill. Rates of duty on milk, butter, butter fat, and cheese are made ma- terially higher, though most of those duties have been hoisted by the Tariff Commission and the President since the Fordney-McCumber act was passed. As a whole they now are higher than they ever were before. And for the present they are prac- tically ineffective, for the reason that, as stated before, production is s0 ex- ceeding consumption that domestic prices of dairy products are being forced to world levels. This may be only a temporary condition. But practically all students of the eco- nomics of the problem agree that it will be a fixed condition within a few years.

Even under present conditions, said Meteorologist Haines, men could live there if supplied with food and cloth- ing. When asked concerning the possi- bility of forecasting the weather from the Antarctic, home of storms, Mr. Haines said the expense of maintain- ing stations for that purpose would be too great, although it would be useful to South America. Admiral Byrd and his men spoke with high praise of the hospitality of New Zealand. Thousands of dollars had been saved the expedition, Ad- miral Byrd said. by the free use granted of harbors; wharves and tele- phones. The men of the expedition, enjoy- ing themselves ashore, warmly praised their commander, saying that he was on the happiest terms with everyone. More than 80 husky dogs, declared by Admiral Byrd’s men to be the most wonderful draft animals in the world, are on their way to the United States aboard the whaler Lar- sen. With them are many puppies born on the great barrier in Ant- arctica. MORMON OFFICIAL LINKED WITH TARIFF Continued From Page 1. was generally known that the Mor- mon Church is interested in sugar. Senator Smoot, of Utah,. declared that Grant had been here only to at- tend the Boy Scout gathering and had called at his office to pay a friendly visit, as he always did. “Is he to be criticized for coming into my office?” he asked. The lanky Utah senator declared it to be an outrage that a man can’t come here to see his friends without the lobby committee grabbing him. Senator Norris said that inasmuch as some curiosity had been expressed , about the activities of Grant while here, he would think Senator Smoot | would be glad for him to appear be- fore the committee and explain them. | The controversy was stirred up over | Senator Smoot’s effort to have the | Sugar vote reconsidered at once. Sen- ator Nye of North Dakota, moved for a reconsideration several days ago. He had previously voted for the 2 cent rate on raw Cuban sugar, but says | now that he did not realize the trade | surrounding it and which has taken control of the bill from the coalition. _ It was finally agreed that his mo- tion shall be acted upon at 11 o'clock this morning. It is doubtful if the coalition has enough votes to get a reconsideration. Grundy Stirs Walsh. Senator Borah said Grant had called upon him while in town but that sugar had not been mentioned. The setback on pig iron was the first one Grundy has suffered since his machine began working. The only available explanation was that the proposed duty on pig iron was just too much. It is noteworthy that sev- eral administration senators voted against it. At that the vote, 31 to 42, was a gain over the vote of 48 and 30 by which the Senate had pre- viously lowered the rate to 75 cents. When Grundy proposed the $1.40 rate he explained there was no need to debate it as the stibject had been fully gone over. “We may as well vote,” he said. His complacency was too much for Senator Walsh, of Montana, who Jumped up and asked why there should be another vote. Curtis Casts Vote. “Has the senator any new informa- tion to offer?” he demanded. “Has he made another deal?” Grundy just grinned and said that he had not had the opportunity to vote before, not having been a mem- ber of the Senate at the time. the new combination, although there was no need to, in restoring the rate of 19 to 22 cents a foot which had been placed On glass by presidential proclamation several months ago. The coalition had — slashed this rate to 15 to 17% cents. Yesterday the vote was on concurring with this pre- vious action. The Senate failed to concur, 36 to 36, leaving the higher rate prevailing, but Curtis cast his vote nevertheless, probably under the impression that it was necesasry. The Senate had previously voted for the lower rate, 43 to 36, which reveals | bef the overturns that are taking place. Similarly, it had previously voted, 40 to 34, for a 1% to 2% cents rate on window glass. It voted yesterday, 41 Si ⏑ SNS 1% to 3% cents.

Descending Scale Planned, It is planned to divide the house- hold rate into a graduated and de- cending scale based on the monthly consumption, Mr. Burroughs said. He quggested a primary household rate Dased on 2,000 cubic feet used in @ month, a second and lower based for 3,000 cubic feet consumed and a third and yet lower rate for consumers us- ing 5,000 or more cubic feet a month. A reduction of the present rate of $1 per 1,000 cubic feet for house- hokis to “at least” 90 cents is con- templated, it was said. Mr. Burroughs ave no definite estimate of the next ower rates which would be proposed, but declared that the total reductions offered would be considerably more than 10 per cent. It has been sug- gested that the reduced rate for the third step would be at least 20 per cent. But this new rate schedule is not a prospéct of the immediate future, it was emphasized, and will depend on the outcome of the plan to expand activities of the local gas companies. The proposed merger legislation is the first step in the program of the new owners. There apparently is widespread approval of the plan to merger the two local companies. The Washington company owns the stock of the Georgetown company. Rich- mond B. Keech, people’s counsel, said after the conference in the utilities commission offices yesterday, that he believed a merger of the two com- panies desirable. ; Saving of $50,00 Anticipated. James Piper, Baltimore attorney, representing, with Wilton J. Lambert, of Washington, the new owners, esti- mated that a merger of the two com- panies would save between $50,000 and $75,000 a year in overhead ex- penses. The keynote of the plan of the new owners, however, lies in their proposal that existing law be amended so as to permit increased capitaliza- tion to provide funds for expansion of the merged company. Mr. Lambert pointed out that the Washington company now is laboring under the handicap of the capitaliza- tion authorized by Congress in 1896, when the stock of the company was increased 130,000 shares with a par value of $20. No stock has been issued since, Mr. Lambert said, the company resorting to issuance of bonds to get needed capital, although the value of the company has steadily increased, as evidenced by the fact that the new owners paid former stockholders $125 a share for their stock. Company Restrictions to Stand. . “The legislation which we will pro- pose does not contemplate freeing the company from any restrictions on issuance of stocks or other securi- ties,” Mr. Burroughs said. “What we want is that Congress shall empower the Public Utilities Commission, after proper and full public hearing, to authorize addi- tional issue of stock when such an isstie is justified and necessary for the expansion of the company. The legislation we have in mind would provide for issuances of common or preferred stock, with or without par value, at such rates and under such conditions and at such times as the Public Utilities Commission may ap- prove. “Such legislation, we believe, will make for a much better situation all around. Congress can, of course, always keep check on the situation by revoking the power of the Utilities Commission, although, of course, we never expect that to be necessary.” Several Amendments Proposed. Several amendments to the prfro- posed merger legislation were pro- posed at the conference with utilities officials yesterday. Many of these were tentatively accepted but Mr. Lambert said that it was desired to give more careful study to the revised measure before it was definitely off- ered as the formal p of the new owners to the Public Utilities Commission. The revised measure will be studied by Messrs. Piper and Lam- bert and taken to New York by Mr. Burroughs, where it will be gone over by other officials of the nationally powerful utilities investment com- panies which now own the gas com- pany. Immediately final approval is given by the responsible officers the meas- ure will be submitted to the Public Utilities Commission and made pub- lic Mr. Lambert said. The utilities commission, at the conference yesterday, took no formal action on the proposal nor will it take any action on the proposition until after it has held a formal public hearing, Maj. Gen. Mason M. Patrick, commission chairman, said at the conclusion of the conference. § PLEASANT RELIEF FROM CONSTIPATION Shoulders droop under weight of years. Young, yet. beauty has fied.

Virginia Sectional Labor Fight Arises Two Marksville Districts Battle Over Granting of Road Jobs. Special to The Washington Post. Luray, Va.. March 12. — Whether the eastern or western ends of Marksville district shall furnish la- bor to build the Gordonsville and New Market turnpike in this county, where $20,000 or $30,000 is to be spent, is causing an ugly situation in the two sections. Work was be- gun on the road several days ago. Laborers in the eastern end of Marksville district declare that they have been discriminated against and that they are forced to stand idle while laborers from the western end of the district are finding employ- ment. The situation has become so acute that work has been temporarily sus- pended until an agreement can be reached. Those living in the east- ern part of the district, where the road was expected to be built, de- clare that “right under their noses” the program as being carried out, is intensifying the labor situation. Hearings have been given those demanding that they be given work. Community Builders Organize at Danville Special to The Washington Post. Danville, Va...

Immediate steps were taken by the board of health officers to isolate the persons affiicted with the malady, to guard against its spread, should it prove to be contagious. “We do nos know whether the cases are a result of disease or poisoning,” a statement * the State Board of Health said. e are going to iso- late and study them and will be guided by the findings of Tennessee doctors, since our cases seem identical with theirs and already have been been at work upon a diagnosis. Affected Suffer No Pain. “Those affiicted seem in no danger. The pain is nominal. Paralysis shifts from one member to another and there seems thus far to be no indi- cation that the injury will be per- manent. “Existence of the disease in Georgia became known with the arrival «bere of one of those stricken, for treat- ment by an Atlanta physician, The doctor was unable to diagnose the malady, but said the symp s were identical with that of ms suf- fering from the affliction in Ten- nessee.” The history of the Georgia cases showed the inception in a cold, fol- lowed by sore throat, then numbness of the limbs, and pain with the pa- tient finally becoming unable to flex the muscles of the afflicted member. | No Fatalities Are Listed, As in Tennessee there have been no fatalities among those stricken.

AJl the correspondents in London have sent out the statement that the American delegation has turned down the plan for a consultative pact. There seems to be no doubt that the delega- tidm has advised Foreign Minister Briand and Prime Minister MacDonald that the United States is not willing to sign an agreement to confer with the other powers for the purpose of avert- ing threatened war. But the public is denied the specific information that would be conveyed by an official state- ment, and therefore the scope and bearing of America’s present position are left undisclosed. The furtive manner in which in- formation is given out in London is ex- tremely unsatisfactory to the public. On more than one occasion the informa- tion furnished has been misleading. The public does not yet know whether the United States insists upon building a dreadnaught to match the British Rod- ney, or whether the proposal has been abandoned. Mr. Stimson recently hinted that a 200,000-ton reduction of naval forces was in sight, but he gave no details, and his statement would not bear analysis. M. Briand’s renewed emphasis upon the importance of referring any under- standing at London to the preparatory commission on disarmament at Geneva seems to confirm the report that hope of a consultative pact has been aban- doned. As France thrusts the League of Nations program forward the chances of an effective separate agree- ment at London are diminished. France hoped to obtain a commitment from the United States which would be equiva- lent to an alliance. Failing to obtain it, and not wishing to break up the con- ference by refusing to make any ton- nage concessions whatever, France now interposes the plea that any agreement reached at London must be tentative, as a mere program to be considered later by the preparatory commission in shaping the agenda for a general dis- armament conference. In accepting the invitation to London this reseryation was made by the French government, and it may now prove useful as a means of avoiding a drastic cut in the French naval program. The French foreign minister has many strings to his bow. If one will not serve, he will use another and an- other. He is making sure that France shall escape from the domination of the British navy. This is his opportunity, while Britain is unable to maintain a double standard against French compe- tition. . Ramsay MacDonald’s purpose in call- ing the conference was to induce other powers to quit building, so that the British navy might remain superior without additional expense. He was not in the confidence of France, and could not foresee that France would seize the occasion to announce an enor- mous naval increase. Mr. MacDonald evidently regarded the United States as Britain’s only rival. He expected France to play a minor role in London. As of old, the two powers face each other across the channel. The ancient rivalry did not expire during the war. It was merely latent, and has now sprung up at a time that is embarrass- ing to England. The Labor government dares not load up the budget with a naval expansion program, and yet it sees France forging ahead to the point _ where, unless Britain builds more war- *)~sebips, British domination of the narrow seas “and the Mediterranean will disap- pear.. What has Mr. MacDonald to offer to France to induce her to remain content with British sea supremacy? This is not the first conference which has run contrary to the expectations of its promoters. The enthusiasts whd | ' — — — — — —— — — — i A a ane ill eee think there is peace magic in the word “conference” should read history and study human nature. Unless carefully prearranged, an international confer- ence is apt to stir up devil’s broth. The London conference has intensified naval suspicion and international rivalry. TERRIBLE PROBLEM OF. INDIA. Mahatma Gandhi, tionist, India’s peaceful revolu- marches to the sea with a band of disciples where he plans to manufacture galt in defiance of the British monopoly. No one The embracing can foretell where the march will end. campaign of civil disobedience, nonpayment of taxes and similar passive re- sistance to the government, was inaugurated the 60-year-old leader emerged from his “Ashram,” yesterday morning when or col- lege of disciples, and to the cheers of an as- sembled multitude set forth on the crusade that Indian leaders. have likened to Paul Revere's ride. There is no intention, say the leaders, of engaging in a military revolt against the British government. The policy of nonviolence ratified by the Indian National Congress remains unchanged. But “peace” and “revolution” are antitheses. A crisis of major proportions impends. Gandhi commands an enormous following. He appeals to Indians not only as a disciple of nationalism but as a philosopher, a teacher and, to a greater or less degree, a holy man. His influence is evident from the fact that the campaign of civil disobedience, which he conceived and formulated, prevailed against the program of violence and armed resist- ance preached by the more radical national- ists in the National Congress in January. Gandhi has strength; he has trained leaders to step into his shoes should he be put out of the way. Normally they would not wield the power of the master, but were Gandhi made a martyr, his lieutenants would capi- talize his martyrdom. ft is for this reason that the government hesitates to arrest Gandhi—for this reason and for the reason that if the campaign of peaceful resistance was halted it might be superseded by a campaign of violence. India is seething with unrest. The “impoverished dumb millions” appear to have been inflamed to the point where they stand ready to strike. The unorganized people could not stand up against the British army, but the day has passed when a government can send an army to amow down and massacre a people. Great Britain’s dominions would not subscribe to a war of this nature. The English people themselves would have something to say if an attempt were made to pour millions of pounds into a war in India at a time when suffering and distress are rampant in the tight little isle. What will be Britain’s answer to the cam- paign of civil disobedience? Gandhi can not be permitted to paralyze the government. Taxes must be collected. But the authorities can stop him only at the peril of bringing about bloodshed ‘and an appalling revolt. Nor is India capable of governing itself, even if it were possible for Great Britain to with- draw. The situation is fraught with terrible dangers, and no solution of the problem is in sight. NEW YORK AND THE REDS. New York has adopted an effective way of dealing with Communist agitators. Police Commissioner Whalen has made a survey of all industrial plants where red agents are causing trouble, and the names of the agita- tors have been supplied to employers. They will be discharged. Three hundred names have already been given to employers, and the total may run into thousands. The police are engaged in a campaign to rid the city of organizers, propagandists and trouble-makers acting under _ instructions from the Communist party. As part of the holshevist scheme to undermine the “capital- istic” industries of this country conspirators have been placed in many imdustrial estab- lishments. The police are acting in coopera- tion with employers with a view to prevent- ing riots, sabotage and labor troubles before the Communist poison takes effect. Communism has no place in the American industrial system. It is as repugnant to or- ganized labor as it is to capitalists. Since the whole purpose of the Communists is to destroy the existing economic system, no plant in which the agents of Moscow secure a. foothold is safe from their subversive schemes. American industry can not afford to nourish a snake in its bosom, even though it may be in’embryo. Employers are not only justified in ridding their factories of Communist organizers and agitators, but they owe it to their country and to loyal Ameri- can workmen, Other cities will adopt New York’s method of dealing with the reds, as the evidence of deviltry is unearthed. GERMANY RATIFIES. Final liquidation of the obligations im- posed upon Germany as a result of the World War has been achieved through the ratifica- tion of the Young plan by the Reichstag. Legislatures of the creditor nations have yet to ratify the plan, but in view of the agree- ments reached at Paris and The Hague there seems to be no doubt of their acquiescence. The penalty to be exacted from Germany for its part in the-war is definitely fixed. Ger- many acknowledges its obligation, and the collection of reparations henceforth becomes a business matter. The overwhelming vote in favor of ratifi- cation again demonstrates the good sense of the Reichstag, composed of representatives of the German people. Uncertainty as to how much Germany must pay, as to how long its finances would be dominated by foreigners, and as to when the last troops of occupation would leave German soil has been removed. Foreign directors of the Reichsbank and the German federal railways will resign and S. Parker Gilbert, agent genera! for reparations, will withdraw. From this time on Germany will be master of its own fate if faith is kept with the creditor nations, The German people will be burdened with a heavy load for the next two generations. The Young plan calls for annual payments to the creditor nations for the next 59 years. The aggregate debt amounts to $24,000,000,000. Annuities have been scaled duwn from the figures of the Dawes plan now in effect. They represent a minimum of what Britain, France, Italy, Belgium and Japan will accept in rec- ompense for damage suffered during the war. On the other hand, they represent an approximate: maximum of what Germany is able to pay. > Although both the plans tor settlement of German reparations bear the names of prominent Americans, the United States does not participate in this debt agreement with Germany. This country made no claim for reparations, but the Reichstag has approved a separate agreement covering the cost of 4merican troops of occupation. and other minor adjustments. President Hoover re- cently asked Congress to approve of this agreement.

MARCH 13, 1930 LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER. DOSTPONEMENT FoR ME! NAVAL ARMS CONFERENCE THE OLD HOCUS POCUS | From the Christian Science Monitor. There are on record many amusing hoaxes where the victims of the hoax enjoyed the joke as much as the perpetrators. One recalls with a chuckle the interest which the Pickwick Club took in archeology, and how during the digging and delving in- dulged in by its members they came upon a broken stone by the roadside and finally evolved the simple inscription—‘ Bill Stumps his mark.” A group exploring some years ago in the neighborhood of Banbury, England, received a copy of an inscription which, it is said, was taken from the stones of an old struc- ture just torn down. It read: Seogeh sreve ereh weisume vah!l Lah sehs se otreh. nos llebdnas Regin freh non gnires rohyer Ganoed iryd ale nifae esots sorcy Rub nabot es rohk co caed ir The archeologists worked and puzzled over this for some time and then one of their number ‘suggested that they try reading it backward. When this was done it proved to be a transposition of the old nursery rhyme: Ride a cock horse to Banbury Cross . To see a fine lady ride on a grey horse A hoax which did not really deceive any one, but amused many, and puzzled some, was known as the “Dutch Mail’’ hoax. Some time m 1840 an article appeared in The Leicester Herald (England) which, the editor announced, came too late for transla- tion from the Dutch. The truth was that, due to an accident in the composing room one column of type became horribly ‘‘pied.” As there was no time to straighten it out, the editor decided to have some fun, and let the mixture go through. It caused a good deal of comment, aroused much curiosity and proved a good advertisement for the paper! Poe's balloon hoax in 1844, and his moon hoax nine years earlier, certainly showed up the credulity of the public. The balloon hoax was the account of the crossing of the Atlan- tic by a group of men in three days in a balloon or flying machine called the Victoria. This account was purely a figment of Poe’s imagination, but it captured the fancy of the public. The excitement was great. Poe at- tempted to explain the fictitious character of the tale, but people would not listen. They wanted to believe in this extraordinary feat. Aviation seed was sprouting. Later Poe said: absolutely accomplish the voyage recorded, it will be difficult to assign a reason why she should not have accomplished it.” Verily, there was faith in aviation in that statement! Poe’s moon hoax was the account of a trip to the moon by Hans Pfall. Herschel’s tele- scope had just been invented, and this had added much to astronomical lore. Thus Poe wove together fact and fiction in a clever way; and again the public was keyed to a high pitch of excitement over what it con- sidered a wonderful feat. In this case, also, Poe’s attempts to explain were futile. Asa result of the public’s attitude, Poe never fin- ished his story of Hans Pfall. ‘He remains where I left him, and is still, I believe, the man in the moon,” said Poe. Perhaps one of the most famous hoaxes on record is that known as the Great Bottle Hoax, which occurred in 1749, and was the outcome of a wager between the Duke of Portland and the Earl of Chesterfield. One of them said: “Do you mean to say that if I were to advertise so impossible a thing as a man jumping into a bottle on the stage of a theater, anybody would be foolish enough to buy a ticket?” The other replied that there would be an amazing number of people who would do that very thing. To test the matter out, a notice was inserted in a London daily to the effect that on a certain night, at a certain theater, a man on the stage would jump into an ordinary bottle and then jump out again. The theater was erammed to the doors, from gallery to pit, and crowds struggling outside to get in. Of course, nothing happened, but several wags in the audience got up on the stage and promised to do the trick at a later date. “If the Victoria did not PRESS COMMENT. Old Models Safe.

The H Hen Is Fooled by Electric Lights and Lays Eggs as in Summer By ROBERT QUILLEN XCEPT in rare cases, they can be happy who will. When the Fathers declared the rights of man, they were care- ful not to include the state of happiness, but only the pursuit of it; for it is clear that happiness is not the right of undeserving men, and equally clear that all have the right to pursue it by making themselves deserving. There was wisdom in the choice of that word “‘pursuit,”’ for it is clearly established that the unhappy individual can develop happiness as a farmer develops corn, and by much the same process. He can plant the seed of it in himself and leave the rest to Nature. He can pretend happiness and nature will make him happy in fact. This is not a Pollyanna banality but an emotionless scientific truth, easily demonstrable. It is true because nature’s reactions to stimuli are habitual and automatic, without the guidance of conscious reason, and therefore are easily harnessed by trickery. Thus vaccination is effective because nature regards it as an in- vasion of disease germs and organizes her forces of defense so etf- fectively that the subject is made as immune to the disease as one | who endures the malady itself. Thus a brutal father, however calmly he may begin the punish- ment of his child, is stirred to wrath by the action wrath commonly employs, and ends by surrendering to ungovernable rage. Thus Burns, the poet, whiled away the tedious rustic hours by “going through the motions’’ of being im love, knowing by experi- ence that pretense would blossom into reality. That is the secret of cultivating happiness. As the play grief of a little girl with dolls ends in genuine wee, so the physical action of laughter, however forced and artificial it may be, tends to produce the emotion of laughter. To smile by an effort of the will is to set in motion a series of reflexes and reactions that develop a genuine inclination to smile. And to pretend happiness when the spirit is depressed—to sing, whistle, speak cheerfully and do all things with the zest and gusto common to happiness—is to generate the emotion of happiness itself. So true is this, and so mechanical are the reactions of nature, that any normal individual who continues to nurse a ‘‘grouch’’ does so deliberately and by choice. The kingdom of heaven is within you. The source and substance of happiness are within you, ready for use when you have your fill of self-pity. (Copyright, 1930.) THE ONCE OVER LETTER TO A NAVAL PARLEY DELEGATE FROM HIS WIFE. My Dear Gideon: This is just a line to let you know you still live in our memory. The children all speak of you quite often. They do not re- member your face, of course, but they hear me speak of you and have seen numerous references to you in the cable news ever since they were little tots. It is for their sake that I sincere- ly hope you are alive and well and that we may some day see you again, as the neighbors are beginning to talk. It was all right for the first four or five years to tell them you were in London at a nava] conference but they no longer believe that story and I can tell by their attitude that they really believe you are in jail or something. “Oh, how I yearn to see you again, Gideon!

Before any plan could be decided upon, however, the facts of the prob- lem should be ascertained. The Bing- ham bill provides for a Filipino- American commission for the ascer- tainment of the facts in a dispas- sionate and judicial manner. The ap- proval of that bill is indispensable if any constructive step is to be taken toward the final solution of the in- dependence problem. The Filipino leaders say now they ere against the Bingham bill. Only a few years ago the Filipiho resident commissioner in Congress, Senor Pe- . dro Guevara, presented before the Williamstown Institute of Politics (which he then incorporated in «a speech on the floor of the House of Representatives) a plan that was on all fours with the present Bi am plan of a fact-finding com on. It was understood the Guevara proposal had the approval not only of the Filipino press but also of the Pilipino public. And it was also hailed by many Americans interested in seeing a definite settlement of the Philippine ‘| question. At present the Filipinos are for the King bill, which provides for immedi- ate independence, although Senor Manuel Robas, chairman of the Phil- ippine mission, expressed himself in favor of the Bingham bill if the King bill ig not passed, which he must have known would not and could not pass. I hope The Post will continue advocating the early golution of the Philippine problem by concrete meth- ods of approach. , PATRICK 8. WILMINGTON. Baltimore, March 11. No Federal Supervision of American Schools, Thank You! To the Editor of The Post—Sir: The National Education Association, through its department of superin- tendence, has renewed its proposal for the establishment of a Department of Education, its secretary to sit in the President’s Cabinet. In the material world absolute standardization is desirable—stana- ardized carpet-tacks and nails and bolts and screws, standardized auto- mobile fixtures, standardized railroad tracks. But the standardization of human beings is the most perplexing problem with which civilized man has to deal, and in the development of American citizenship, there is a limit beyond which standardization is per- nicious. With its opportunities for the in- sidious shaping of' the thoughts of the youth of the country, a Federal estab- lishment of education would be as ob- jectionable as the “establishment of religion,” which is banned by the Constitution. FEDERALIST. “Education” by Radio Will Be Inei- dental—Scraps of Culture’-in. the Feast of Jazz.

Those who anticipate good results from incidental educa- tional broadcasting in radio programs have the right idea. Commercial broadcasting as & source of popular entertainment has proved its worth, although I would gladly miss its crooner who sings like a sick calf. It already serves a good purpose with its scraps of culture for the radio fans, and no doubt in this connection it may make great advances in the future. EDUCATOR. Men Will Be Boys—Lads at London May Say Later, “We Didn’t Know It Was Loaded!” To the Editor of The Post-—Sir: The proceedings of the London con- ference remiind me of the old sayiug that “men are only boys grown old.” And the old boys of world politics do not seem to change much from gen- eration to generation.

The old army musket of boyhood days was harmless enough as a usual thing, but occasionally it went off with tragic results.

The per quoted the President as saying that he approved the com- mission plan for a temporary admin- istration only on condition that it would be exercuted in strict accord with the constitution of Haiti and the treaty of 1915. . Bince the constitution, under etrict interpretation, would not provide for national legislative elections until 1982, the commission interpreted this aS an apparent attempt by the presi- dent to delay execution of the plan. Members of the commission were emphatic {n declaring that the prob- lem. must be solved at once.

AIRUTT DUAN ‘TL | The ~ TO PRESS DEMANDS) — HE WASHINGTON POST: THURSDAY, MARCH T is rather an amazing political picture that is unfolding inh ~ Pennsylvania. One member of the ident’s Cabinet is out to get the can senatorial nomination from the hands of a sitting senator, who is the candidate of another member of the Cabinet. . Mr. Davis has been campaigning already from his office and presum- lably will continue to do so. No one has heard of his submitting his resig- nation. And this campaigning will te to wreck the Mellon-Grundy machine of the Keystone State. . *,* * . T is the weirdest picture one has seen in a long time. Which. side has the administration favor? Undoubtedly both will try to bask in it and it is quite likely that as the campaign goes on one will make out- right claim to presidential support and the other will very probably in- sist that no, it is the fair-haired son. These Republican candidates usu- ally have as their main and often their sole slogan, “Support the Pres- ident.” Mr. Davis will be able to use this with a perfectly straight face, that is, if he keeps reasonably quiet on the prohibition question. Mr. Hoover must approve of him. He is in Mr. Hoover's Cabinet. And while the gen- eral opinion is that this is because the labor leaders could not upon his successor, the fact is that he is a member of the Cabinet and the t would not keep him if he did not approve of him. Listening Post —By CARLISLE BARGERON— * OW, it is wnlikely that Mr. N Grundy will go around shouting ' “Elect me to support the Presi- dent!” because that would cause too many laughs, but he certainly will be able to point to Ais vote with the every vote that has been taken. Just how is one to figure that out? If the President's name is not to be Gragged into the fight, just how will Mr. Davis pursue Mr. Grundy? Just what course will he take against him? only to reply that he voted as did the other administration forces. . . . 7 Mellons, against fabulous wealth? _ well, what kind of a happy Cabinet family would that be, with one mem- ber out on the hustings uttering im- precations against a colleague? One has the sneaky suspicion that Mr. Hoover hopes that Mr. Davis will win. Mr. Grundy, despite his vote every time with the administration forees, is not a friend of the President, paradoxical as that may sound, In- deed? the President has reason to fear trouble from this same Mr. Grundy. And Mr..VYare, whose banner Mr. Davis is cafrying, was much kinder to Mr. Hoover at the Kansas City convention than efther Mr. Mellon or Mr. Grundy. The President, however, will prob- ably try to keep out of the mess. he succeeds it will then be unmistak- able that he cares nothing about the Senate at all. It will, indeed, be a new record for disinterest. WAR VETERANS PLAN | TO TELL EXPERIENCE Continued from Page 1. The Washington Post- would like to read. They don’t have to be long.

YOUNG DEBTS PLAN Pact for Reparations to U. S. ls Also Approved in German Ballot. POLISH PAYMENT VOTED ' | Berlin, March 12 (A.P.)|—The man-American agreement by which Germany's reparations payments to | the United States are regulated, were given final approval by the Reichstag today. The Youhg plan measure itself was given third arid final reading by a yote of 265 to 192. The American agreement was approved by a rising vote. The Polish liquidation was approved, 236 to 217. The measure by which the final liquidation of the war debts are pro- vided, now only requires the signa- ture of Prestient von Hindenburg and publication of the ratification In the official gazette before becoming law as fer as Germany is concerned. Young plan palyed their last card in an effort to secure two months’ time during Which they hoped an- other -plebiscite on the Young pian might arranged, but this maneu- ver was countered by the government deciaring todays | tion “urgent.” | There is no doubt in Berlin but that President von Hindenburg will sign the documents by which it is expected Germany will be freed from | foreign occupation and foreign con- | trol and will be restored to full sov- ereignty. | Under the Young plan, which was ‘sighed in Paris on June 7, 1920, the |payments which Germany must make pin the allied powers for the next 59 years are fixed. Delegates represent- |ing six creditor nations-+-the United States, Great Britain, France, Belgium, Italy and Japan—signed the report with the representatives of Germany. The Young plan superseded the Dawes plan, under which 8S. Parker Gilbert had been agent general for reparations. The plan, which took its name from | Owen D. Young, called for a reduction of -the reparations annuities during 'the next 37 years from approximately imately %$492,000,000. Annuities of $408,000,000 were recommended for the last 22 years subject to the profits of the bank for international settlements created under the agreement.

Modern science has been used by the canner to bring the finest fruits to you cooked to uniform perfection, And sugar _plays an important part in such results. Every cook should cultivate the habit of using sugar as a flavor. Often fresh vegetables, such as corn, tomatoes, peas, carrots and string beans, need a dash of sugar to restore. their sweetness. In making them more palatable, every- body is eager to eat what they need of these foods. This is especially true where children’s meals are concerfied. Can you blame a child for shying at an insipid vegetable, a too-sour fruit or an unsweet- ened cereal?

For what it is worth—if anything— I quote a portion of a featured story carried in the current issue of a relia- ble trade publication which may, or may not, shed further light on the matter: “Straight from an inside, authorita- tive financial source comes the report, unconfirmed and denied on all sides, that Electrical Research Products, Inc., has made a deal to acquire the 4 interests of Harry M., Albert and Jack Warner in the company bearing their name, and that Courtland Smith, for- |mer general manager of Fox Movie- tone News and a close friend of John BE. Otterson of ‘Erpi,’ will enter the Warner organization as representative of the big electric. “Warners and ‘Erpi’ are at cross purposes on the question of royalties. By the contract between the two com- panies, disputes are settled by arbt- tration. The Warners several years ago preferred charges against the electric company and, if the arbitra- tors now considering the evidence de- termine in Warners’ favor, it is re- ported the company stands an excel- lent chance of recoveri millions. This factor is reported to a prime one in the deal said to have been madé by ‘Erpi’ for the Warner broth- ers’ holdings. “Whether or not the reported deal is a purely financial one or whether it presages a switch in operating management is one point which re- fuses to emerge from the maze. But it is expected that Smith will join the Warner organization ostensibly in charge of a new sound newsreel with Jack Connolly, former European rep- resentative of Fox Movietone .News, as associate. In reality, so the story goes, Smith is to be the direct in- side representative of ‘Erpi.’ “‘Neither my brothers’ nor my in- terest in the company is for sale to anyone at any price,’ Harry M. Warn- er telegraphed from Hollywood in — — on the reported deal. ‘As stated previously, we are in the busi- ness to stay, including our sons.’” j With NELSON B, BELL BEHIND THE SCREENS At any rate, this makes a splendid companion piece to the puzzle —* is the operating head of the Fox terprises | Next week's attractions in the pic- Fox, MacKenna in John Ford's production of “Mtn Without Women;” Metro- politan, Vivienne and John Boles in the Warner Brothers’ Tech- nicolor production of “The Song of the West;” Palace, Vilma Banky in “A Lady To Love;” REO-Keith’s, George Sidney and Charlie Murray in “The Cohens and Kellys in Scot- land;” Earle, Winnie Lightner in “She Couldn't Say No;” Columbia, William Haines, Leila Hyams and Marie Dress- ler in “The Girl Said No,” second week.

When Declarer won the first trick, he could be sure that if the enemy, lead before he took nine tricks, they would save game as one of them must have at least four Hearts remaining. Declarer could not;establish Diamonds with- out losing a trick, even if the finesse, succeeded; no matter how the adverse Diamonds were located, one of them must take. So, although the Declarer had a total of nine Di- amonds and not more than seven cards in any other suit;'the natural play of establishing the Diamonds was hopeless. Declarer had one chance to make game, viz., by run- ning four Clubs, three Spades and one Diamond before the adversaries obtained the lead. To accomplish this he must succeed in both his Club and Spade finesses, and it was “not probable that both the King of Clubs and Queen of Spades would be located in the East hand; but it , was the only chance. t, 1 J * * * ~ im ; should be To trick 2, the Queen of Clubs led, South playing the Ten if East do not cover.

Are these millions of families happy? The census does not say but it — fair to assume that they are as happy es human beings usually are. Of course, the young things are perfectly safe in marryi on $50 a week! But! There are little essen- tial conditions to be attached to that, which we will briefly consider. The great question is: Are the young things capable financing their domestic life on $50 a week? You are aware, that all and the following domestic life must be! financed?’ If not. wisely done the marriage goes on the rocks, no mat- ter what the family income. That gentleman, named Einstein, has promulgated a theory and given to the world the word “relativity” which applies with the greatest fitness to financing marriage. Getting down to brass tacks, there are a whole lot of relative things that must be ruled out of the budget on $50 a week. That income will not stand a wed- ding trip to Bermuda. It will not stand any great amount of theaters, dances, dinners or other expensive pleasures. It will not stand very much of what some young folks think is essential in this age of jazz, dis- content and unhappiness. Now you begin to see what I mean by social “relativity.” I will add that any happiness and great adventure in marriage on $50 a week. Moreover, they can have home shelter, sane family life, one child in the first five years, a small, increasing savings ac- count and independence; if they will carefully finance such gimple forms of social life and not waste their money. Miss McDonald, you are a careful soul, but it does seem to me your carefulness runs to extremes when you advise the young to wait so long for marriage. At 30 the time for ro- mance has fied. The bachelor and old maid who essay marriage at that age submit wedlock to a far greater strain than do the young, determined things at 19, who gét married on a shoe string and “make Pike's Peak or bust.” Pray forgive an old man, at the threshold of 80, who was happily married at 21, who worked hard for many years—46 years—helped to raise two daughters and one son, who pounded his fingers to the bone on typewriters in four cities, and who has not yet arrived at anything to speak of in the way of fame or for- tune. But the man at 21 and the bride of 18 had a mighty good time in this world. She has gone over the divide, into immortality. If we had waited to fulfill the condition you lay down the marri been consummated until late in life, when the zest for romance and do- mestic joy had gone down the stream of the rapid years. Our daughters were married, one at 20, one at 22, and the boy at 19. All started with light equip- ment. I learned about the prospective “annexes,” found them good, and ad- vised marriage while young, and do not regret it. Best of all, no one had better come to one of our frequent family gatherings and insinuate that anybody is unhappy, or that any mis- takes have been made! It would not be completely healthy for an outsider to do that.

IF YOU DOUBT THIS, WRITE FOR PROOF TO THE AUTHOR MACKSTANDS PAT WITH WINNERS Turns Bench Into a Kindergarten of Re- cruits, However. This is the tenth of a sertes of first-hand Associated Press sto- ries on major league baseball prospects. By BRIAN BELL. ORT MYERS, Fia., March 12 (A.P.).—When the world cham- pion Philadelphia Athletics go out to open the 1930 season, they will present the line-up that wor the World Series, but the background will be vastly changed. The bench will be occupied in part by .pink- cheeked boys just out of their ‘teens. The veteran Connie Mack, 68 years old, but young in spirit, will -yhover about a small group of baseball chicks, turning his bench into a kin- dergarten. There are 17 youngsters in the camp of the Athletics who are 20 years of age, or under. Some of them will be retained as reserves for the stars who won the 1929 champion- | ship. The Athletics may be the only club in either league to stand pat on the closing line-up of last season. Play- ers have been added in quantity, but there have been no signs that any of them can crowd his way into the opening batting order. The new- comers are extra infielders, pitchers, and one catcher. Mahaffey Likely to Be Regular. The pitching staf— Bob Grove, Rube Walberg, George Earnshaw, Ed- die Rommel, Jack Quinn, Howard Ehmke, and Bill Shores—will be re_ inforced by possibly two recruits. One seems certain to be Roy Ma- haffey, from the Portland Club of the Pacific Coast League, who had two trials with Pittsburgh. Mahaffey is called “speed” by the players, high tribute on a team whose three aces, Grove, Walberg, and Earnshaw, can throw fast balls with the best in the business. Probably the astute Mack wil’ carry only nine pitchers after he cuts his team to the league limit of 25, June 15, 'so the scramble for the last place wil] .be intense with three of the kindergarten trying desperately to break in—Alfred Mahon, 20, a Nebraska boy; Glenn Liebhardt, 19, ‘|gon of a famous Cleveland pitcher of other days, and George Snider, 18, a California boy, whose contract was purchased from Portland. 3 New Inftelders. For Emergencies. Gordon Cochrane, rated generally as the game’s best catcher, will con- tinue to do the bulk of the receiving with two veterans in reserve, Cy Per- kins and Wally Schang, the latter procured in a trade with the St. Louis Browns. : The infield quartet of Jimmy Foxx, Max Bishop, John (Joe) Boley and Three newcomers may form the emergency corps. Jim Keesey, first baseman from Portland, will be kept for utility duty as will Eric McNair, 20-year-old who made a favorable im last autumn. A third extra infielder may be Dibrell Williams, just 19 years old, Who played | second base for. Little Rock last year. Williams has been one of the spring stars.

Manush and Browns Continue Salary Talk West Palm Beach, Fla., March 12 (A.P.).—While Business Manager Bill Friel and Outfielder Heinie Manush continued their argument today over what salary the slugger should re- ceive, the rest of the St. Louis Browns went through the usual train- ing grind. Eddie Grimes, infielder, who has been holding out, wired Friel today he was on his way to the training camp with his signed contract. In. addition to Manush, Shortstop “Red” Kress and Pitcher George Blae- holder still are unsigned. Pirates Veterans’ Hits Beat Yannigans, 7-6 Paso Robles, Calif., March 12 (A.P.).

Four straight hits by Brickell, Comorosky, Paul Waner and Traynor, of the veterans, brought three runs in the eighth. Comorosky's effort wes a double. Kremer Brame, Erickson and Finney were on the hill for the yanigans and Bednar and Lang pitched for the reg- ulars. GRIFFITH SET TO DISMISS GOSLIN Club Plans to Pro- ceed With Barnes in Left Field. ILOXI, Miss., March 12.—While President Clark Griffith, of the. Nationats, refuses to discuss his | salary controversy with Outfielder Gioose Goslin and declines to quoted in any manner until the big fiy chaser opens negotiations with him, he denies that there ie any ylelding in his position, as reported. While under baseball rules a player may be put on the ineligible list and fined $100 when he finally does come to terma, it is understood that Grif- fith will not take this action against Goslin for several more days at least, although Goslin’s three days of grace expired tonight. The Nats’ owner gave Catcher Roy Spencer, another hold- out, several days’ leeway and feels that Goslin is entitled to the same consid- eration, and it is for this reason alone that no disciplinary action is planned in the Goose's case at the present time. Geslin’s Value Doubted. settling their argument over the fiy chaser’s 1930 salary, as each declares that it is up to the other to reopen negotiations. Naturally, the owner of the Washington Club does not want to see his team lose any of its punch, but he takes the view that Goslin did not add any strength last season and that there is no certainty he would do a come-back in the coming one, and is making his plans to get along with Emile (Red) Barnes filling Goslin's shoes. Griffith declares that he is making no effort to make a trade of any kind, as he is through taking chances on veterans. He is, however, carefully scrutinizing the waiver lists and will not let any young talent which he thinks might help him get away. As a matter of fact, Grffith is con- fident that Manager Walter Johnson will develop some youngsters to sup- ply @ batting punch. Alongside of Sam Rice, who led the team last year, will be Sammy West, a great fielder with a batting reputation which he has never lived up to since joining the Nats, and Barnes, who showed great hitting ability in the early part of 1928, when he was among the leading five until late June. Sees Better Year For Barnes. Regarding the latter, Griffith fig- ures that 1929 simply was a bad year for Barnes and that he will get |back in his stride during the com- ing season. He.is giving indications of having regained his batting eye in practice here now. George Loepp and Alvin Powell are the other outfield candidates. The latter must be counted out because of his inexperience, but Loe has improved each season while vanc- ing up the ladder, and also shows signs of being of some use. In addition, Griffith looks for an added punch to be supplied by his infielders. Buddie Myer apparent- ly being a better hitter than he was last year, while Joe Cronin and Jack Hayes are ex to add to their 1929 punch. While the Nationals may miss Goslin if he fails to come to terms with the club, neither Grif- fith nor Manager Johnson are show- Goslin and Griffith apparently have | reached an impasse in the matter of | | saddle | annual sales here, Regulars to 5-0 Win in Defeat of Nats’ Rookie Team. Errors by McLeod and Bradley Figure in Triumph. By FRANK H, YOUNG (Staff Correspondent of The Post. ILOXI, Miss., March 12.—Man- ager Walter Johnson has decided that occasional practice inter- club games are good for his athietes spirit needed during the regular sea- son, anf the first of these affairs was staged this morning after the regular drill. Assistant Trainer F. Reilly Baxter's Rookie Clubhouse Gang tackled the Regulars and might have made a fight of it but for two costly errors which gave the Regulars at icast three of the five runs they made in registering a 5-to-0 shutout victory. It was a five-inning fracas, with Regulars and not only whitewashing his opponents, but contributed a home run with a mate on the sacks. A bad peg by Shortstop Jimmy Mc- Leod put this runner, on the sacks, while another, by First Baseman Bill Bradley, cleared ulars were in confusion and suddenly | discovered that two of their men were on third at the same time. Brown's Outfield Catch Features. “Chief” Carlos Moore and Don Sav- idge did the filnging for the rookies and both performed well. Lloyd Brown, in left field for Johnson's team, catch to feature from a defensive angle, while, Ossie Bluege and Muddy Ruel. Liska’s work was particularly pleas- Ing to Johnson, as he is banking heavily on this subway pitcher com- ing through. tossed slow ones, fast ones, curves, 'n everything this morning and never was in hot water, while he issued but one . Pitcher Bump Hadley, another whose 1930 performance will have much to do with where the Nats place in the race, did not get into action, but was burning the ball over the plate in practice. He has been work- ing hard and looks to be in better condition than he has ever been while wearing Washington livery. While no scales are available, judging by the way his clothes fit him over his middle section, he has dropped at least 15 pounds. Phelps Nursing Foot Injury. | Catcher Gordon Phelps is hopping around like a hen on a hot griddle | as @ result of stopping a foul with the big toe on his right foot in today’s /game, The injury is painful but not serious and he stuck to his job and finished out the Roy Vangraflan, the sweet-voiced umpire, is expected to arrive here to- morrow. He will officiate at all of the Nats’ exhibition games until the regular season starts. Although the Athletics are not mak- ing the news public property, a vis- itor arriving here today from Hot Springs is authority for the statement | that Outfielder Al Simmons is again | having trouble with his legs and that one of his ankles is swelled to twice its normal size. With “Water Bucket” Al out at the start of the season, the Athletics’ efforts to repeat in the title race will be handicapped consider- ably. Manager Walter Johnson and Trainer Mike Martin spent the after- noon telling some of the kiddies at Gulfport how to become real he-men. Dealers Pay $40,000 For 79 Saddle Horses Lexington, Ky., March 12 (A.P.).— Eastern dealers paid fancy prices for horses at the second day of the at which 79 head sold for a total of $40,000. PF. E. Robinson, exhibitor and dealer, of Summit, N. J., paid $4,000 for the promising show geiding, Har- vest Moon, in the consignment of W. D. Mountjoy. Harvest Moon, a five- gaited chestnut gelding, by Bourbon Star, a son of Bourbon King, and out of a mare by Montgomery Chester, brought the top price. Robinson also bought a bay geld- ing, Star Shoot, by Bourbon Star. for 8775. Another Motntjoy horse, a three-gaited black gelding, Ipanna, went to Turner Young; Lebanon, Tenn., at $725.

Rr | ARYLAND UNIVERSITY ath- letes were romping away with the Cathotie University in- door track and field meet at a ijate hour last night. After what apparently was des- tined to be a close battle with Tech for the honor, Eastern . High won the top. honors in the scholastic division with .16 points... Tech was second with 8 points, Hyattsville High third with 5 points, Bethesd — Chase High fourth with 4 bolt te Raymond Riordon School etter with 3 points. The most outstanding . individual rformance was contributed | oy uts, former Western High and pres- ent Maryland star, when he leaped 11 feet 7 inches in the. pole vault to shatter both the Maryland and C. U. records, His 15-inch handicap car- ried his mark to 12 feet 10 inches, which was much the best. In one of the feature dashes, Bob Quinn, of Maryland, defeated nis brother, Ed Quinn, of Tech, in the 50-yard open handicap Affair, by & matter of inches. The younger brother came back a few minutes later to score an impressive victory in the District A. A. U. championship 50-yard sprint, defeating McGuigan and Joe Champa, of Catholic U. in the good time of 5 3-5 seconds. Mayer, Tech, Unhart In Mishap. An accident that might have prov- en serious was averted when Mayer, Tech 440-yard man, ran the track at one of the turns, over the heads of scribes in the press box, and then bounded back onto the track and finished the race. Bill Kinnamon, of won the high hurdie event in which Fahey, former Maryland star, running un- attached, failed to place. Fahey is the present South Atlantic cham . Piye, of Eastern, and Gerth, of C.

Lexington, Va., March 12.—Wash- ington and Lee's “varsity” and fresh- man boxers split a seven-match card here tonight, each team winning three decisions and one match being called a draw. No knockouts featured the match, but lively boxing was the order of the night. Robinson, varsity 115-pounder, started the evening by winning a de- cision over Gunter, and Capt.-elect Slosberg added another victory for the upper classmen by outpoirting Measick in the 125-pound class. Capt. Black gave the varsity its third deci- sion when he won by a decision he Jackson. Then Pound, freshman 145+ a started the yearlings on their way by winning a close decision fron \- son, of the varsity. McKinney, of the varsity, and Bacon, for the fiosh. fought three rounds to a draw. — an additonal round ‘the judges disagreed and the match was even. In the 175-pound class Collins took the measure of Heaps, of the varsity, and in the unlimited weight Mundy gave the first-year men: their third victory in a slow exchange of Swats with Day. As a final to the evening, Coach W. E. “Bus” Malone went two rounds each with Ward, Porter and Lord. There were no de- cisions. SAINTS WIN, 17-16.

ILLS URGES GAMES BE ———— _THE ‘WASHIN GTON POST: THURSDAY. MARCH 13. “1930. a ~ ———— : a — * Hilltop I Is Not A hot Says Director Would Meet G.W. and Maryland U. F ‘ootball. — — — Intracity Encounters Seen as Aid to All Institutions. APITAL sports fans, long dented a ae competition between colleges, should note with a seoud OF tenerest the expression of ~~ ged intention of Tom Mills, new Georgetown University athietic regarding their desires. Mills “Yesterday in an informal dis- n in his Hilltop office as follows: “I am not only willing but anxious @ enter into permanent athletic re- Miionships with other local schools, I can find the time within the Meek or so I am going to start A) the possibilities t. CG. W. and stent... Games Proposed. “There’s no @oubt In my mind that football games or other contests be- tween Georgetown and George Wash- ington or Maryland, for instance, would help us, help them, and help wg ao alge ewe} Situation in this aa when * A loSking into the matter J will be able to say that Georgetown is holding back.” In this department's opinion, Tom Mills was not talking just for lip exer- cise. We believe he will make an honest effort to effect athletic rela- tionships with other local colleges on a permanent basis. Aside from many other benefits. intracity college sports competition would certainly Freep the partici- pating institutions out of debt in so fae as sports are concerned. At pres- ent’ there probably is not a single local, college able to meet expenses in the conduct of its athletic program. Whereas they now depend solely on football to help defray expenses— having no idea of football paying for everything—they would, by virtue of permanent relations in all sports, build up & general and sustained In- terest. from which each sport. would bécome self-supporting, or mearly so. Georgetown Handicapped tn Facilities. The present state of Georgetown’'s ethietic facilities has awakened ne end of comment among students and friends of the Hilltop. It is safe to aay that no other college of George- town's prestige in the country is so handicapped as the Blue and Gray in the matter of playing fields, &c. With the dormitory building pro- gram under way, the only space left for umhampered athletic activity is the freshmen field situated south of the main bullding, and this plot is entirely too small for the staging of & football or baseball game. It af- fords just enough room for practice. But, according to Mills, things will be greatly improved within a couple of years. In fact, he feels confident that by the start of the fall the ground in the rear of the medical school, on Reservoir road, will be converted into two football fields, and that before the robins come North a year hence that a cinder path and a Baseball field will be ready for use. Mills is thinking hopefully also about a new gymnasium which would house an indoor track, basket ball court, a couple of handball courts and complete gymnasium cquipment. It Will be two years at the earliest. he —* before that can be realized, if at DUNBAR DOWNS BOWIE. GPP Dimowie Ner — 1 13'Gray. “if ‘Stew " Q F.Parker. rf. F Green.rf..... ree.c. ae i.

Prom that point on, Gellman, op- posing center, went on a scoring sprée of his own to tally seven times from the floor and four times from the foul line to lead the Ambassadors’ second-half attack. From & pdsition of two points ip arrears, the Ambac- sadors stepped out to acquire a 20-13 lead at the end of the third quar- ter, never again being threatetied by the Arcadians.

In the second game of the after- noon the Boys Club Optimists hopped out in front during the first quarter: and though holding but a scant 2-point lead at half time, coasted to a 31-21 verdict over the Burns com- bination. Never behind in their game with the Burns Five, the Boys’ Club Opti- mists were, nevertheless, extended all the way and only in the fourth quar- ter were they able to sew up the game. Ahead at the end of the first ten minutes of play, 6-4, the Opti- mists could not widen that lead dur- ing the next period, leaving the floor with but a 14-12 lead at the half- way mark. The third quarter was productive of the first real spurt of the Opt'- their half-time advantage, whichi| saw them ahead, 23-17, as the final period started. The Optimists then exhibited some close guarding quali- ties. which held their opponents tc ing eight points to their total.

Wiegel’s work was especially outstanding as was the all-around play of Ellis of the defeated team.

Coach Red Smith has ordered the first practice game of the season for today on the Washington Barracks Field. The battle for regular posi- tions on the team is waxing hot at present and this contest will help the coach in solving his problem. Johnny Bozek, who played first last spring, is now seeking an outfield berth, while Phil Mooney, a ieit- hander, and Leo Owens, reserve first baseman in 1929, are fighting for the “doorway” assignment. Johnny Dunn, regular shortstop a year ago, has just had his tonsiis re- moved, but he is expected to return to practice shortly.
