Doyle, 59, political worker, was found in a narrow passageway behind 4 Bouth Side building early today. In- dications were the woman had been slugged to death by an assailant wielding a heavy blunt instrument. Preliminary investigation led police to advance robbery as the motive for the slaying. Mrs. Doyle’s purse, which contained a check she received short- ly before her death for services as Republican judge of the Seventh Precinct poll of the Second Ward, was missing. Her earrings and a bar pin were untouched, however. Her wed- ding ring was found 150 feet from the body. Political Motive Scouted. Police scouted the theory that a political motive was involved al- though the case marked the second slaying of a Republican worker here within the past five days. .

Speedway Traffic, Snarled by Crash Two Women Slightly Hurt by Collision; One Car Hits and Runs. An accident in which two women were slightly injured tied up traffic on the Speedway early last night and all but caused a serious traffic jam. Park policemen spent a busy half hour untying the snarl that quickly followed the collision. An automobile driven by Miss Helen Wise, 34 years old, of 112 South Royal street, Alexandria, and with Mrs. Margaret O’Neill, 65 years old, of the game address, as a passenger, was struck by another machine near the Tourist Camp. The other car sped away, but Miss Wise’s car was dis- abled. Both women were taken to Emer- gency Hospital, where they were treat- ed for numerous cuts and bruises. Their wrecked car caused many auto- Mobilists to stop and inquire about the accident, and the Speedway was soon badly jammed.

The number of archbishops, bish- ops, priests and laymen of the Rus- sian orthodox faith who have suf- sake is legion. Some place the num- ber as high as 6,000 or over. And the manner of their death is a revolting page in the long annals of man’s in- humanity to man. , The Archbishop of Perm was buried alive after having his eyes put out. The Bishop of Belgorod was cast into a pit of quicklime. The Bishop of Youriew was incarcerated in a cellar with common criminals, his nose and ears cut off, and after being beaten mercilessly with a bayonet, was final- ly hacked to pieces. The Archbishop of Voronej] was hanged before the altat of his own church, throughout his archdiocese 160 priests were shot.

Another priest at Tcherdin was stripped naked in the cruel Rus- sian. winter and sprinkled with cold water till he became a statue of ice. In the case of certain other priests condemned to death, crowns of barbed wire were placed on their heads be- fore their execution. At Poltava and at Kremenchoug the victims were impaled. At Poltava, where Grichka, the prostitute reigned, eighteen ec- clesiastics were paled on one day. Counter-Reyolution Charged. The customary charge of counter- revolution has been lavishly invoked during the last ten years, even against such innocent and univefsally respect- ed prelates as Bishop Benjamin, who Wag secretly murdered in Petrograd im’ 1922. Obstruction of famine relief was al- leged in its turn, although the Pa- triarch Tikhon offered sincere cooper- ation in stripping churches of their or- naments for conversion’ into funds for famine relief and only resisted the confiscation of the Eucharistic ves- sels.

Disregarding a volley of bullets fired by a robber who attempted to hold them at bay, a large capwd of men last night continued on until they captured ,him at V and Four- teenth streets northwest. . The chase began at the Lincoln Theater, in U street between Twelfth rand Thirteenth streets northwest. The alleged robber, Charlies Mason, colored, of New York, was said to have at- tempted to steal at gun point a box containing $300, the day's receipts of the theater, which was about to be placed in the safe. Wells Wallace, colored, usher, pushed the gun aside as the robber attempted to grab the box. The man backed out of the theater and began to run. Men in the section, aroused by Wallace’s cry of “Stop thief,” joined in the chase. The pursued man fired three shots at them, but none took effect. When Mason was captured he was badly beaten by the crowd of colored men. His injuries were treated at Freed- men's Hospital. Later he was locked up in the Eighth Precinct Station for investigation. Boy, 9, Fights Off Dog. Brave little John Cocker, 9 years old, of 2616 L street northwest, didn't cry yesterday when a stray dog at- tacked him and bit him on the right arm.

The sunshine tempted the resi- dents of 1700 Pennsylvania avenue into taking a walk in the spring air, and to go down to the amaryllis show at the conservatories of the Depart- ment of Agriculture on Fourteenth street, near B street, northwest. They left the White House by going down East Executive avenue, and walking down the avenue past Poli’s tothe District Building at Four- teenth street. Turning there, they walked down Fourteenth street to the hothousés, and entered without benig announced.

The boys played on, not knowing who their distinguished lookers on were.

Moscow, March 16 (A.P.).—While millions jn other lands prayed today for Russia's legions of Christian faith- ful, the militant atheist society of Russia, the League of the Godless, prepared for a more intensive assault against God and the churches dur- ing the approaching Easter period. The Russian government itself, however, has noticeably mioderated ite attitude toward religion. It now discountenances the forcible closing of. churches. or the tearing down of church bella without the consent of the overwhelming majority of the population and the formal satiction of the central government authori- les. | All Moscow's churches were well attended at services today, the gov- ernment having at no time attempé- ed to prevent individuals from free- ly taking part in their religious rites Christians Fear Future. Most Christians here, however, see a dark future for their faith if the government continues to carry out ite present plan of forbidding the teaching of a religious faith to those under the age of 18. Since the agitation abroad has as- sumed such imposing proportions throughout the world, there has been a perceptible change in the atheists’ plan of warfare against the church. Fearing punishment at the hands of the government authorities if they go -too far, they now confine their activities ‘exclusively to disseminat- ing antireligious propaganda and teaching the peasants that good crops depend not upon God, but upon their own labor, good wealther and proper methods of cultivation. Among the numerous manifestos issued today by factories, workers’ clubs and atheistic organizations, is one by the Moscow dynamo factory saying, “Under the sacred robes of the Pope, there is concealed a jackal that is ready to destroy the land which builds socialism with fire and sword.” Rest of World. Addressed. The w Union of Militant Atheists, addfessing the capitalistic world, says, "You will mot frighten or dismay the Soviet union of workers with your -réligious crusade, as you have 60 elten attempted to frighten us with #our diplomatic notes and wild sttacks om our foreign repre- sentatives. Religion amd collective farms van aot exist together.” The militant atheist society an- nounced that it concluded an agree- ment today for “socialistic competi- tion” with an organization of 9,000 atheists in the Ruhr district of Ger- many. The Germans will attempt to tear away from the church before March 30 2,000 Garman worshippers, to collect 2,000 marks for the pur- chase of tractors for the Soviet union, to recruit 500 new members for Ger- man atheist societies, and to recruit 100 new members tor the German Communist party. agree to collect enough funds to build a whole fleet of tractors. New York, March 16 {A.P.).—Meet- Ings of protest against alleged re- ligious persecution in Russia, and prayers for its cessation were held to- day by Protestant, Catholic and Jew- ish religious bodies. At the same time a crowd of 14,000, including Communists and others, gathered at the Bronx Coliseum to protest against criticism of Soviet Russia’s antireligious policy.

Edwards, 33, garage pro- prietor and airplane salesman, and Burt Chaney, 35, automobile me- chanic, were killed in a plane crash 4 miles north of here today. The ship, which was owned and plioted by Bdwards, went into « tail spin at an altitude of about 4,000 feet. It crashed in plain view of a throng of spectators who had gath- ered to see an air circus at Wheeler Airport. While they had mo connec- tion with the aerial show the two men were flying around the edge of the airport, most of the time at a high altitude.

As 400 persons watched a perform- ance in the Leader Theater yesterday, firemen fought @ blaze in the rear of the building. The patrons, oblivious of the fire, sat throughout the show. A heating plant attached to the main building, but lined with fire- proof walls, ignited and sent off dense smoke into the areway. A wooden coal chute. used to convey fuel from an upper loft to the furnace, caused the fire. G. E. Barrett, manager of the theater, stood in readiness in the rear of the auditorium ready to quell any disorder that might arise. Deputy Chief G. EB. Barrett esti- mated the damage at $25.

SEVEN SAILORS HURT IN MANILA RIGTING Natives Attack American Naval Men With Lead Pipes at Game. POLICE QUELL, BATTLES Manila, March 16 (AP.)-—PFifty sallors of the United States Navy and a crowd of Filipino civilians engaged in a riot at Kittelle Pield here this afternoon after «a baseball game. Clubs and blackjacks were wielded, and stones and lead pipe were used as weapons during the melee in which five of the sailors were injured, al- though not seriously. The crowd was subdued by B. K. West, an American police captain who was armed. When native police ar- rived they arrested three Filipinos. The most seriously injured of the Americans was E. O. Mecklinburg. « chief machinist’s mate on the U. 5. 8. Parrott, who received four frac- tured ribs and was badly brulsed on the face and body. The influence behind the attack was not clear. One theory was that it was inspired by Communists. Oth- ers believed it was an attempt on the part of Manila gangsters to make good a threat made several weeks ago to avenge California race riots.

Doctors said his condition was serious, but believe he will live. Franklin drew a large crowd to the arena and. received a great welcome. He went out jauntily to face the black bull, which was his first that afternoon. The animal, whose horns were very wide apart and sharp, lunged at him disconcertingly, and the fans began to murmur, “The Americano has a tough fight.” As Franklin was making 4 whirling pass with his cape in front of the bull he was caught by the bull's horns from behind, during the frac- tion of a second that his back was turned to it. | other matadors and the mem- bers of the “cuadrilla” rushed for- ward, waving their capes to district will be well again within 40 days if complications do not develop.

CURTAILMENT HINTED IN TONNAGE PROGRAM U. $.-Japanese Ratio Ques⸗ tion May Be Hurled Into Melting Pot Again. By JOHN L. BALDERSTON. London, March 16 (N.Y.WNS.)— Prime Minister Andre Tardieu ¢ Prance went to Chequers, the British prime minister's country place, today to find a three-power treaty between Great Britain, the United States and Japan almost in being. After three strenuous hours of discussion with Ramsay MacDonald he returned t London, having completely altered the situation by the simple method of insisting that France had been asked to this conference, was willing to make « treaty, and had no intention, of withdrawing. Accordingly, the situation at tie London naval conference is more uncertain than ever, for it is well . known that French ideas of a pos sible treaty.are scarcely compatible with those of the other powers and yet Prance, having been invited, can mot be sent away. As M. Tardieus formal statement to@ight hints, the conference has now settled down to. a contest of endurance. “We consider the result to ‘be ob-* until she gets the sort of trea wants, if any, atid not walk leave the field to Great Britain, thé United States and Japan. it was learned on good authority, ol the following results: * limitation by total tonnage or vy classes Of ships, already five-power agreement is possibile.

House May Hear of Parley. Mr. MacDonald, not wish to discuss the conference in the House, but he or First Lord of the Admiralty A. V. Alexander, may be forced to do so if Winston Churchill lives up to reports and delivers his expected slashing attack on the Brit- ish delegation. The British delegation and the admiralty have agreed, if there is no big reduction in the French pro- gram, to demand 57 cruisers instead of 50, and 50,000 tons of destroyer tonnage in excess of the Rapidan figures. OF U5, OFFER SEN All this will at once reopen the American-Japanese controversy, even | if settled for the moment, on the subject of 8-inch-gun cruisers on the Rapidan basis. For the United States’ suggestion to Japan that America bulld fifteen 8-inch-gun cruisers, to be in commission in 1936, and lay down three in the years 1933, 1934 | and 1935, to come into service later, presupposes fifteen British cruisers of | this type, and, according to present understanding, Great Britain will de- mand, not fifteen, but seventeen, and five more 6-inch-gun cruisers. Unless the United States, therefore, abandons parity with Great Britain, the Japanese ratio question will again be thrown into the melting pot, and this now appears certain. Three-Power Pact Under way. It can be stated with authority that before M. Tar@ieu's return to London Secretary of State Stimson and Premier MacDonald had a three-power pact in an advanced stage and that the ra- pidity of the Fécent negotiations with | the Japanese had for their aim Ja- | panese adherence. M. Tardieu's tactics today have ap- parrently, therefore, surprised some of the statesmen of other powers, but | are explainable on the ground that he | wanted to smash this situation, and for the present has succeeded It can also be revealed confidently | that Secretary Stimson is aware of | the new British demands in advance | of the Rapidan figures and decided | last week how to deal with them. In- | stead of raising the figures between | the United States and Great Britain | agreed on here he wanted to invoke Article XXI of the Washington treaty of 1922, providing for calling of the treaty signatories in the event one of them felt menaced by the acts of an outside power. This, however, the British refused. Another Clause Discussed. Another clause has therefore been discussed and while its exact nature is not known in general it will pro- vide for higher building by the three contracting parties in agreed ratios if the building programs of outside pow- ers exceed certain figures This provision will enable the Brit- | ish to build their excess ships, but it | will require supplementdty negotia- tions with Japan which have not even begun. All these things, however, which seemed in a fair way to settlement have been destroyed, rarily, by M. Tardieu.

PRESS FOR AGREEMENT Tokyo, March 16 (A.P.)—Tokyo to- Gay generally believed the govern- ment shortly would cable to London approval of the compromise reported to have been reached by the Ameri- can and Japanese delegates at the naval conference. Well-informed circles believed that naval men would strongly oppose the proposed U. §8&.-Japanese ratio on cruisers armed with 8-inch guns. Re- _ltable sources reported that the com- promise would allow America a total tonnage of 527 000 compared with 366,900 for the Japanese. That would | be a total ratio of 60.4 per cent. Reports said the proposed agree- ment would provide for 180,000 tons of 8-inch-gun cruisers for the United States, besides 145,000 tons of small cruisers, 150,000 tons of destroyers and 52,000 tons of submarines. Japar allowed 108,400 tons of 101,400 tons oi small cruisers, 105,000 tons of de- stroyers and 52,000 tons of subma- rines. America was understood to | have proposed to lay down her whole allotments of warships carrying 8-inch guns by 1936, but to complete only }50,000 tons by that time. 15 U. S. Cruisers by 1936. By this schedule, the United States would undertake to complete only | fifteen big cruisers before 1936. The re- | M™Maining three would be laid down, | one annually, beginning in 1933. Japan, on the other hand, would not be permitted to lay down any more big cruisers before 1936. Japan would retain her present strength, composed of four 10,000-ton crulsers, the Nachi, Myoko, Haguro and Ashi- gara, already completed, and the four 7,100-ton vessels, the Furutaka, Aoba, Kako and Kinukasa, which are also completed. The four 10,000-ton ships | which are being built, the Takao, | Atago, Chokai and Maya, of which the last probably will be completed by the end of 1932, also would be retained. It was understood Reijiro Wakat- suki, chief of the Japanese delega- tion, and his colleagues submitted the tentative agreement to Tokyo as the “last American offer.” But the submission was considered tanta- mount to the delegation’s belief in its general acceptability. Objections Are Foreseen. Since the delegation includes Ad- miral Hyo Takarabe. the opposition naval men remaining in Tokyo are unlikely to be very vigorous or long sustained in their objections, al- though objections are expected con- cerning the cruisers. Tokyo is likely to insist that American undertaking | respecting the last three big cruisers be specifically incorporated in the treaty.

Crulsere and more crulserse—those fieet scouting greyhounds of the ses— are the present need of the American Navy even as they have been in years past. This is the consensus of fiag and other high ranking officers of the United States fleet in Guantanamo Bay, fresh today from experiences gained and lessons learned in the “Battle of Navassa,” fought to a finish in the Caribbean Priday after almost a week of maneu- vering and scouting, pat ot oe A intri- cate problems and In which ships of every type played their part. Since the days of the Washington Disarmament Conference, which throt- tled all serious naval construction, cruisers have been at the forefront of international news. The recent maneuvers and the working out of fleet problems has not changed the opinion of high ranking naval men that fast scouts in the form of light cruisers are still of so high an importance that without them a fieet staggers about in its battle strategy as a blind man. Fast Cruisers Essential. Rear Admiral T. P. Magruder, who acted as umpire in the war game Just completed, is emphatic that from les- sons which came out of the tactical problem, it is absolutely necessary to have a large fleet of fast cruisers, modern from stem to stern, if a mo- bile fieet is to be formidable in ac- tion aiack Of sufficient light forces, in- cluding destroyers and cruisers, Ad- miral Magruder believes, considerably hampered officers in command of both the “Bleck” and the “Blue” fleets in the “battle” just completed, considerably cutting down their visi- bility and range of intelligence oper- ation. Rear Admiral Magruder is also of the opinion that the United States should proceed with the building of 135,000 tons of aircraft carriers 41- lowed by the Washington Conference. he believes, the new carriers should be smaller than the Saratoga and the Lexington to permit greater numbers of this type of ship. Admiral L. M. Nulton, who com- manded the “Blue fleet” in thé exer- cises, emphasised the need of an of- fensive fieet for a large force of cruls- érs, not only for screen work but for scouting far ahead of the great ships of the line. The “Blue fleet” cruised about the Caribbean for days in vain search for the mythical invader, its sea tyesight considerably hampered by the absence of sufficient light forces to locate the course and posi- tion of the enemy and to determine his plan of battle. Strategic Air Attack. It was by a brilliant air attack that Vice Admiral W. C. Cole after several days of maneuvering was able to launch his air force from the broad decks of the Lexington and in the period of a few brief minutes wipe out the air force of the Blue fleet. The Lexington, Black fleet aircraft tender, and the Saratoga, the float- ing air base of the Blue fleet, were approximately 40 mies apart with the fleets running on courses which made battle imminent. Admiral Cole was able to launch a fleet of 36 bombing planes from the Lexington in a brilliantly executed surprise at- tack on the Saratoga, which was caught unawares and put out of ac- tion with only three planes of her air armada in the skies. Just before the big ships fired their last shots, eighteen Black torpedo lanes took the air from a secret ase at Gréat Messels Bay, Haiti, where they had been deposited by the mother ship Wright, and attack- ed the already hard-pressed Blue fleet main battle line. Somé observ- ers were of the opinion that the Blue fleet losses had_been staggering and that the Black fleet had concluded the engagement with a decisive vic- tory in which many Blue ships were theoretically sent to the bettom.

WILL LIMIT ARGUMENT (Associated Press.) Continuing its eleven-hour day program, the Senate will enter upon ite twenty-ninth week of tariff re- vision today with leaders entertain- ing high hopes of passage of the Hawley-Smoot measure by Thurs- day. Only half a dozen disputes of more or less major importance re- main to be settled before the final command from Vice President Curtis, “The clerk will call the roll.” The first point of difference will be tackled * with resumption of efforts to place duties on hides, leathers and shoes, now on the free list, but made dutiable in the House bill. An amendment by Senator Od- die (Republican), Nevada, calling for higher hide rates and lower shoe levies than those of the Huse measure, will be the hub around which the debate will revolve. Eight Attempts Fall. Eight attempts to modify the Od- die pro 1 failed last week, but this w not interpreted as a sign that it would go through. On the contrary, the consensus appeared to be that it meant a repetition of the action of a few months ago, wh all three commodities were left on the free list by a vote of 46 to 28. Debate will be limited when it is resumed today. and a decision is expected before the session ends at 10 p. m. Two other rate controversies face the nerve-worn legislators before the administrative sections again are put to the test of revision. These embrace the attempts of senators from South- western States to take oil and petrol- eum products from the free list and of Northwestern senators to patch up the holes in the tariff wall against soft-wood lumber, Both Suffered Defeats. Senator Thomas (Democrat), Okla- homa, will lead the fight for the oil tariff, while Senator Jones (Repub- lican), Washington, will make an- other bid for lumber protection. Both suffered defeate several weeks ago, and in an effort to win more sup- port they will curtail their rate re- quests. As for the administrative provi- sions, much interest is being mani- fested in the plans of Senator Smoot (Republican), Utah, to restore to the bill the —*— provision authorizing customs offic! to bar entry of books they as of an immoral nature.

The other would limit the profits on seles of imported articles. The high spots in the rate sched- ules of both the House and Senate bills as of today are the agriculture and wool schedules, both of which have been revised upward to a point never before known. Of the four textilé schedules, rayon and wool have been given the greatest incr in protection. Cotton goods have been given slight raises, while the silk schedule remains about the same as existing law. Both measures carry an increase in the éugar duty, as wel) as rates on brick, cement and hardwood flooring. The House bill carries duties on other lumber and shingles, but these re- main on thé Senaté free list.

McNamara, auxil- jary bishop and St. Gabriel's pastor, Father Smith, and other uotables of the clergy from the rectory to the church auditorium, now being used for a church. The rites of dedication and blessing of the corner stone were conducted by the Archbishop, while the sermon ‘was delivered by Father Smith. A choir of women sang and the choir boys participated in the ceremony. “This church is the product of ars of dreaming,” Pather Smith said ‘In his address. “It will stand as one of the great monuments of the city and a tribute of the generosity and ‘faith of a devoted people. “You do well to erect this edifice to our Saviour in this great City of |\Washington, which is unsurpassed in the number and beauty of monu- ‘ments to heroes. You do well by your church, your God, your com- munity, your Nation, and yourselves f building this sermon in stone.” Father Smith and later Archbishop Curley highly praised Bishop Mc- Namara for his work in the parish during the last decade and for “is leadership in bringing about the Dullding of the new church. The archbishop also lauded the “generosity and loyalty of the people of the St. Gabriel's Parish, saying that they were “unsurpassed, if equaled, in all of the Baltimore arch- diocese.” At the conclusion of the benedic- tion. Archbishop Curley announced that because of.the dedication and the fact that today is St. Patrick's, the children of the parochia! school would be given a holiday.

He had awakened feel- ing very well and looking forward to a farewell tea that his physicians had attowed him to offer a few friends at the hotel this afternoon. For some time his general condition had been improving steadily. t his body lay with serene visage encased in a cowl formerly worn by the monks of the Carmel Congregation. His body was a in a coarse woolen fabric similar to those used in ancient Spanish mon- asteries. In his neatly manicured hands was a huge rosary of biack granite.

King Alfonso heard of it as he was preparing to go to the race track and immediately canceled his engage-~ ments, expressing his sorrow, Pre- mier Damaso Berenguer, the resigned dictator's successor, did the same. King Alfonso sent telegrams of con- doléence to Senior Primo’s children in Paris and instructed the Duke of Alba, Spanish foreign minister, who is vis- iting Paris, to represent the crown and the government in discussing the funeral arrangements. He asked the Guke to express personally the sorrow of the queen, the royal family and the cabinet. Premier Mourn’s Passing. Premier Berenguer told the Associ- ated Press correspondent that the passing of his predecessor is most un- timely and a great loss to the nation. “I had great admiration for my companion. We were always great friends, our friendship being born of the confidence we had learned to have in each other in the field of battle, when we fought the enémy together in Cuba and in Morocco. My admiration for him is natural and personal, for I have lost a friend.” The effect of Primo de Rivera's death upon Spanish political life is still uncertain. The former dictator died just as the ition groups, with growing emph were demand- ing the Bere overnment to do something to “fix the responsibility for the dictatorship.” May Lie in Family Vau!t.

No reason was given, but in other quarters it was pointed out that the political situation in Spain is very delicate and there is a possibility that any word from either the State Department or the Spanish Ambassador might be misinterpreted in that country.

Since the days of President McKinley, I have con- stantly supported the principle of a protective tariff for the American farmer and American industry, as the best way yet devised to insure the prosperity of our farmers, business men and workers. “I have favored limited immigra- tion, because it is a protection to the American worker, both native and foreign born, against a competition which would lower the present high standard of wages and. result in greatly increased unemployment. I have worked earnestly for welfare legisigtion for the benefit of man, woman and child.” Coast Artillery March Is Planned Regiment Will Move From Fort Monroe to Point Near Chicago. (Associated Press.) — A 1,000-mile march from Fort Mon- rie, Va., to Fort Sheridan, near Chi- cago, Ill.. will be begun May 15 by the Sixty-first Coast Artillery Regiment, which is composed entirely of anti- aircraft batteries. It will be the first Coast Artillery unit to take a station in the interior of the country, and its overland march is to be made occasion for public in- spection of the antiaircraft batteries in many large cities. The route to be chosen is expected to take the regi- ment through some of the principal cities of Virginia, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois. If possible, it will give demonstra- tions at some of the overnight stops, firing blank ammunition while the battery searchlights spot and hold air- planes engaged in theoretical bomb- ing of the inland cities. A part of the regiment will spend the summer at Camp Knox, Ky. for training National Guard units from the Central States. Boy Critically Injured When Struck by Auto Critical injuries were received by Leon Forman, 12 years old, of 4524 Pimlico road, Baltimore, yesterda afternoon while playing at Florida avenue and Fifteenth street north east when he was struck by an auto- mobile which Ninth Precinct ice said was driven by Earl M.

The boy was taken by Mattingly to Emergency Hospital, where he was re- ported suffering from concussion of the brain, several fractured ribs and possible internal injuries.

It is too early to forecast the fate of the tariff bill, but not too early to per- ceive that the Democratic party has thrown away any chances it might have had to turn the tariff fight to its ad- vantage. Its flirtation with Republican deserters and its violation of the Hous- ton platform pledge American have arrayed industry against it. The Democrats of the Senate as a rule have turned their backs upon the protectie principle, except in cases where they could obtain special their particular States. spotted. The people can place no re- liance in the party, it has violated its pledge. advantages for Their record is because The Republican party, not counting fake Republicans, will oppose the debenture plan, and probably will win. There is no reason why the House con- ferees should yield to the jackass coali- tion. If the coalition should then de- cide to try to kill the bill and should muster the votes wherewith to ac- complish the feat, the net result would be Nation-wide resentment against the Democrats and renegade Republicans | and a corresponding increase in Presi- dent Hoover’s strength. Whatever may be the outcome of the struggle in conference, charges of party duplicity and incompetence will fill the air. In this battle of billingsgate the Republican party will have an advan- tage, because its faithfulness to protec- tion has been demonstrated, while Democratic unfaithfulness is equally clear. Renegade Republicans have their sins to answer for, and some of them will bite the dust, but the regular Re- | publicans will not weep on that account. One or two of the recent changes in the tariff bill, forced through by the new protection coalition, are very unwise from a Republican standpoint, particu- larly the increased duty on sugar. This increase works with certainty against the consumer, while it is of doubtful benefit to the producer. Every indi- vidual is a sugar consumer. The Grundy-Smoot coalition has handed to the Democratic party its best weapon in the next campaign. But since that party has consistently voted against really deserving duties applying to many industries, it will be too busy apologizing and explaining to have much time for attacking the opposition. With all its faults, the tariff bill as it is now emerging is a long step toward uniform protection of American industry, agri- eulture and labor against ruinous foreign competition. That is what the country wants, and if the bill furnishes this need the average voter will over- look the flaws and defects. The Democratic party has proved faithless in the greatest obligation that it could assume in behalf of the people —that of conserving their welfare by protecting them in their own market. _ The party gave a pledge and violated it. No twisting or turning can obscure this fundamental failure to keep faith with the people. . The Republican party, in spite of the treachery of a few members, has faith- fully supported the policy of protection to agriculture, industry and labor. It has refused to adopt the crazy renegade plan for killing industry as a means of helping agriculture. The farmers have indicated that they understand the situation. They do not wish to cripple industry, which employs the labor that - eonsumes farm products. The coalition Republicans who outraged the equal protection rule in order to curry favor - with the farmers are thoroughly dis- | credited, not only among the farmers, THE ‘WASHIN GTON POST: : “MON DAY, ! but among i? and “eae of labor in the whole range of industries that are entitled to protection.

Of been recent years power companies have reaching out in a fashion scarcely imagined when power development was in its infancy. Today a little of all is transmitted between States, and the tendency is toward further consolidations of the comparatively few remaining independents and the super- | power companies themselves. With the ex- tension of interstate transmission a field for operation has been opened up over which States can not exercise jurisdiction. It is to control this field that the Couzens bills have heen introduced.

The Russian people are naturally deeply religious. A large percentage of them is obsessed by the fanaticism of Communism, which can not thrive in a religious atmos- phere. God must be annihilated if Com- munism is to survive. The zealots who are honestly endeavoring to abolish God are displaying a zeal that is worthy of a good and not an evil cause. They are battering themselves against a wall that can not be undermined or toppled over. “A mighty fortress is our God,” is the innermost thought of a majority of the Russian people, as it was of Luther. : Man ts not only a religious but a trading } animal. even in savages. Communism, in trying to destroy private property, is attempting the preposterous feat of changing human nature, When it attacks the religious. and trading in- stincts it merely paves the way to its own defeat. The Soviet dictatorship makes a brave show while it, controls government in Russia, but it can not obliterate from man the traits that are embedded in his very na- ture.

The tariff, the peace conference and prohibi- tion are brushed aside to make room for the stupendous question: Goslin worth? Baseball fans, What salary is “Goose” drinking deep of the first glad days of spring, are divided as to whether Clark Griffith's offer of $10,000 for the pres- ent season to his hard-hitting left fielder is fair or not. It is a reduction of $7,500 from The “Goose” “Insult’’ last year’s contract. claims such an offer is an to him. His supporters, tapping the statistical vats of the years when Goslin “murdered the ball,”’ stoutly defend his indignant stand. The followers of Grif- fith, sipping the statistical vintage of the year 1929, when Goslin was something of a “buast,”’ maintain that the $10,000 offer is a fair one. And so, far in the night, “he is worth it,”’ and “he isn’t worth it,”’ the debate waxes hot. A distillation of the pro and con leaves the residue that the team needs Goslin and Gos- lin needs the money. Wherefore one does not have to borrow the mantle of a Landis to suggest that Messrs. Griffith and Goslin cease their long-distance press exchanges and get together in a peace conference. They can make a limitation agreement if they really try. Broadway could make a neat stroke in economizing telephone book leaves by com- bining the receptions to Admiral Byrd and Old Doc Cook. | RUSSIAN PEASANT EXODUS | Warsaw Correspondence of the London Times. Information received here from the east- ern frontier during the week-end leaves no doubt that the measures taken by the Soviet authorities for the creation of collective farms are causing an increasing number of Ruthe- nian and Ukrainian peasants to abandon thetr homes anf seek refuge in the Men border districts. The first peasants to come over predicted that they would be followed by many more. That forecast is now being fulfilled. By Fri- there had been 100 but whether they are reckoned by groups, fam- day crossings, ilies, or individuals it is not always possible to tell. It is certain that since then the stream has not been checked, in spite of elaborate precautions taken by the Soviet frontier guards. On the other hand, the dif- ficulties and perils of escaping from Russia are so great at the best of times that it must be considered an open question whether a much larger number will succeed in their attempts to get across. To be ready for every emergency, the Polish “authorities are considering the possibility of opening a con- centration camp for refugees who are with- out friends or relatives in Poland. The largest number of fugitives has pene- trated the northernmost sector of the border- line, between the towns of Dzisna and Druja. Here the boundary is formed by the River Dzwina (southern Dvina), and escape in- volves a passage over ice. The Novotnys, a large family of twenty, with children and two small infants, were the first to risk this crossing after they had abandoned a prosper- ous farm at Zatsishe, 4 miles within Soviet territory. They decided to move on Friday, when they were informed that their prop- erty was to be socialized the next day, and that they, as kulaks (well-to-do peasants), would probably be sent to Siberia. They set out with six wagons and six horses, taking only their better clothing and a stock of lard and bread. Everything else was left behind. . The live stock was penned in the pig styes, the barn doors were bolted, and a light was left burning in one of the living rooms to give the impression that they were still at home. They had decided, if they met single sentries, to shoot them dead on the spot, but if they ran into a larger patrol, three or four were to stay behind and lay down their lives while the rest got away. Luck was with them, for they had drifting snow and fog, and were able to drive their wagons across the ice into Poland about midnight... They stopped on the further bank to offer prayer. The head of the family, an old man of 80, said that Ogpu (Cheka) officials had come to make a list of the young children who were to be taken away and sent to Commun- ist schools. When he had answered that he would never part with his grandchildren he was told that he would be sent to the Solovet- sky Islands. Boris Loban, a refugee who arrived at Stopice three days ago, said that there had been stubborn resistance to socialization in his village, Zamostoviche. First propaganda had been tried through the Antigod Society and young Communist Pioneers, and then, when that failed, the Ogpu had seat an agent provocateur, who provided the villagers with arms, telling them that the Poles had de- tailed him to muster armed bands, because a war with the Bolshevists was impending. Some days later the Ogpu agents arrived, found the arms, and shot twenty young men. The rest of the band went to Solovetsky, and 69 families were deported to northern Siberia in goods trucks.

Mort than 50 countries sent delega- tionsa—all the miembers of the League and Brasil, Costa Rica, SHcuador, Egypt, Iceland, Mexico, Monaco, San Marino, Turkey, Soviet Russia and the United States having been in- vited. Starting back in 1924; at the sug- gestion of the Swedish government, league committees (with the active cooperation of George W. Wickersham, former United States Attorney Gen- eral), have been framing a basis for the first codification of interna- tionally recognized customs. _ 30 Haitians Present Views. Although confronted with difficul- tles, jurists have collated the r- -_ and viewpoints of more than $0 governments, which after careful study sent to the league their obser- vations on the above quéstions. The greatest common denominator has been deduced from these replies a6 @ starting point. All schools have been taken into consideration—the Buropean, Oriental and American. Even the divergencies between Chrig- tian, Moslem and Confucian moral codes have been noted where racial and religious issues are involved. The impossible situation that women, who marry men of forefgn nationality, find themselves in, the divided families, where the father may be a Frenchman, the mother an American and the children of still a third nationality, and the question of double-nationality is one that is likeliest to be solved by the con- ference.

Another question that will be de- cided is whether or not & woman, should her husband choose to change his nationality, could be forced to adopt the new country without her consent, while it is further urged that upon dissolution of international marriages, which have resulted in a change of the wife’s nationality, her former nationality should be restored upon her own application. It is also hoped to secure universal recognition of the principlés that 4 person who applies, through naturali- zation, for anothér nationality keeps his old one until he has acquired «@ new one. Difficult and complex as is the problem of nationalities, it is believed a unanimously acceptable law can be worked out, one which ty covers the tantalizing question of birth on board a merchant ship—an accident which now usually makes the child subject to anywhere from two to five national jurisdictions.

A] Capone on his return here from the Eastern Peni- tentiaty at Philadelphia, where he is serving a tei months’ sentence for carrying a pistol. The gangster’s sen- terice expires Monday. An elatotate banquet was being planned ‘Sy Mig Mother, brother and sister’ at Ws South Side resi- dence. Pwo i8-pound turkeys have been ordered from a neighborhood butcher and {fivitations extended to intimate friends; The time of the feast depends upon the arrival of Ca- pone, whose hour of departure from the prison, originally set for shortly after midnight tonight, may be de- layed witil Gov. John Ss. Fisher reaches ‘Philadelphia from a vacation trip to sign necessary commutation papers. Different plans were Being consid- ered by United States Attorney George E. Q@. Johnson. The prose- cutor said he had two possible cases against Capone—one involving the alleged nonpayment of income taxes and the other based on a contempt- of-court charge. Capone was cited for contempt of court last year when he failed to come to Chicago from his winter home in.Miami Beach, Fla.. in answer to a subpena issued while a Federal grand jiry was investigating Chicago Heights liquor traffic He | was subsequently released on $5,000 | bond, but the Federal attorney must | exercise the privilege of calling the Case for hearing. Deputy Commissioner Stege crys- talized the police department's atti- tude toward the homecoming with: “Capone will be picked up like al! the other gangsters have been in the current crime drive.” Philadelphia, March 16 (AP.).— “Scarface” Al Capone, Chicago rack- eteer, whose term in Eastern Peniten- tiary here expires officially at mid- night, may not obtain his freedom until tomorrow afternoon. Capone was sentenced last May to a year in prison on charges of carrying a loaded revolver, but two months were deducted for good behavior, and according to penitentiary rules he is eligible for release at midnight. Be- fore he ia set free, however, routine papers in connection with his case must be approved by Gov. Fisher and delivered to prison officials.

Winte presents ‘Vanity * il Lea Mr. _ George gE. Win Until last night | in the National, Washington hadn't seen a frazzie- dazzle vaudeville show, or a revue, in a long time. Then, of a sudden, “Vanity Fair x 1930” brightened the horizon, with Ceci] Lean.and Cleo Mayfield fea- tured. Along with them were a dozen more from the music halls—and some very good, too. This sort of entertainment is more a matter of mood than anything else; but toils is a hard-working aggregation and 2.an- ages to work up enthusiasm The third George Wintz production to play the National, “Vanity Fair of 1930.” seems to have a shade on the others~+if only for speed. It moves along in fast style, motivated. perhaps. by a jazz orchestra under the command of one Harry Shannon, related no doubt to the Shannons of Broadway. Cecil Lean and Cleo Mayfield have direction of some new numbers, along with their-~ old stuff. and go along about the same as they did in those days of the Keith-Albee circuit; but, as some- one aptly remarked last night, Cecil has been drinking beer again. Now the chances are that Cecil has not been drinking beer; for where can beer be secured in this day and gen- eration? Even so, Cecil makes some of the boys jealous, with his—for want of a better name—well-fed look. Yet, withal, he manages to dance, and sing as well as ever—and do his patter songs. with Cleo, as in the days of yore There is a young cofmedian amongst those present, Dave Burns, who does several rousing numbers—and goes over big.

A cordial invitation for Amegicans to visit two exhibitions to be held this year at Seville and Barcelona was broadcast yesterday afternoon by the Spanish Ambassador to the United States, Senor Don Alejandro Padilia. Speaking over the coast-to-coast hook- up of the Columbia Broadcasting System, in the “conclave of nations” program, the ambassador discussed the history of Spanish music, and the international understanding, that he said music brings about. “Music is the great universal . language,” he said. “I wish we could have an in- ternational written language, such as music.” Senor Padillo was introduced by Senator James M. Couzens (Republi- can), of Michigan, who briefly sketch- ed the ambassador's career since he entered the diplomatic service in 1893, as an attache to the Washington Le- gation, “The good relations between Spain and the United States,” Senor Padillo said, “are based not only om the good political, commercial and industrial understanding, but on the reciprocal knowledge of the people. Therefore, one of the most agreeable duties of my diplomatic representation here is to encourage Americans to visit Spain and my compatriots to visit this hos- pitable coumtry, of which I am such a devoted friend.” INSURANCE STATEMENTS.

In studies ex- tending over the period since 1921, | Dr. McNair finds that factors con-| ditioning success or failure for de- partment stores are primarily the “internal ones in management rather than the external ones beyond the control of the store operator.” That is a comforting finding, in these days of aggressive chain-store development, popularity understood to be more or less in competition with the department stores. Really it is | not so. The chain stores and mail | order houses with local retail outlets belong in one field, and the depart- ment stores in another field of higher price ranges. The department store has nearly reached its full stature. To achieve further success it must employ managerial brains of the high- est type. , Retailers’ Handicaps. Perhaps it is on this account that the larger stores have profited by commanding the services of the better trained, managers may not profit from the advantages of mass production and mechanical improvement as manufacturing indus- try profits. They must carry on their business under increasing handicaps with higher rentals, fairly definite trading areas, very limited export ‘markets, and nationally standardized nd advertised goods constantly war- ring against their own private brands Moreover, competitive conditions com- ‘pel them to meet mark-downs made by competing stores doing business for cash. In the face of,these difficulties it is gratifying that the better type of department store is working out its Department stores | The independent store has lately come 4nto competition with chain de- partment stores. But both chains and independents appear to see that they are engaged in a common war against waste. No doubt a terrific fight is going on between the fwo systems for the consumers’ dollar. “Massed advertising,” massed selling. may accomplish much. In the de- partment chains there is strong cen- tralized control of many units. There is a drive which an outside coordi- nating management can impart to the initiative of the individual store manager All these forces loom large as competitive factors in the eyes of the independent store owner. But no retail chain is such a dominant factor in the department store field as the great trusts, such as the Amer- ican Telephone and Telegraph Co., United States Steel. or General Motors are in their respective fields. A de- partment store, for instance, would ‘have to do three billions’ worth of |} gross business a year to equal the standing of United States B8teel. |For the present, at least, this is un- thinkable in the retail field. There may be further mergers of independ- ents. Department store chains are atill matters of experiment. But per- haps size is only incidental. Skill and | care in merchandizing are what really | count. | Retrenchment, liberal advertising | and stiff competition mark the ra- dio industry at present. Its pros- pects will be the theme of a forth- coming article by Prof. Fisher, one of whose articles appears each Mon- day in The Washington Post. {TOTAL SALES, DEPARTMENT STORES i928 PER CENT a .

OIL SHARES MOVING UP — — By H. B. BROUGHAM (Irving Fisher Service.) Selectivity was the keynote of the bullish movement of stocks last week, as of the entire upward trend since January 17. On March 12 the @l- common industrials index had shown a 37 per cent recovery of the 89.1 points lost during the break last fall On March 11 the common industrial index showed a 5.7 per cent gain over February 23. The rise from 138.7 on January 17 to 1508 on February 5, approximately the same duration, showed an 8.7 per cent gain. Last week thirteen of the group indexes reached thé high point since the break last fall, but the slump on Wednesday left only nine groups up when the week closed. Twenty- one out of 23 oj] stocks rose. Motors reached their high since the break on March 11. Radio had eight of last week's 50 most active stocks. Other strong groups were auto ac- cessories, miscellaneous, office equip- ment, building supplies, preferred and tobaccos. The oe index shows only coppers, household prod- ucts and electrical equipment off, but the daily index reveals é¢leven groups off from the close of the preceding week. Rails have lost since February 8, with the index down by 3.4 per cent below the February 8 point of 137.4. Group Trading Urged.

A good rule would be to trade chiefly in those groups that show a pronounced up- ward trend, and only in those stocks within those favored groups that are rising most rapidly. The groundswell in values traded on the New York Stock Exchange noted during the preceding, week con- tinued last week. Average daily trad- ings rose to 8217,000,000, the largest this year, due to activity in common shares. Values in all common stocks rose by $29,700,000, to the high since the second week in December, with March 5 the largest trading day since December 20. Thirteen groups rose, seven lost. Foreign Stock Markets Steadier: For the first time in many weeks stock prices on foreign markets show- ed steadying trends. The Berlin in- dex, 85.7 on February 28, showed no change last week from a level 2.6 per cent above record low on November 29 last. London stock prices rose by 0.4 per cent last week, to a point 2.2 per cent above the bottom of December 27 and after a slump of eight weeks, Paris stocks lost 2.5 per cent last week, to a level 2.8 per cent above the November 29 low of 134.1, The compact survey of New York Stock Exchange movements of com- mon industrial shares is given below in price indexes (1926 equals 100). There are two indexes of market price movement. The first (“Shares Out- standing”) represents all common in- dustrial shares listed on the exchange, the importance of each stock being considered according to the shares in existence, or outstanding. The second index (“50 Leaders”) shows the price movement of the common industria) stocks most heavily déalt in during the week, this list changing weekly with the shifts in trading popularity. The “Sheres Outstanding” index shows what a substantially represent- ative $100 worth of stocks in 1926 would now amount to if held un- ch since that year. The “50 Leaders” index shows the result of reinvesting the $100 every week in the market favorites of that week. The last column of the table gives the rate of return on the week's 50 leaders at current prices. ° Shares Week ended— M 4 50 out- market stand’. jeaders., >.

DOLLAR’S POWER RISES Followers of the wholesale coni- modity price index were prone to look upon last week's further decline of 0.1 per cent as almost in the hature of a moral victory considering th® precedi week's heavy fall of 1 per cent, e ratio of rises to falis showed distinct improvement. Of the commodities changing in price 38 per cent rose, while the preceding week's changes registered 16 per cent rises as aguinst 84 per cent falls. At 90.9, however, the index records another low point. The purchasing power of the dollar still maintained a steady swing up- ward, rising to 10 cents above the 1926 average.

Cops First Cage Title | Tuscaloosa, Ala., March 16 (A.P.).— Alabama, which won its first Southern Conference basket ball championship this year, finished the season with one of the best records in the history of the Dixie loop. The Crimson Tide won 11 games without a defeat before the conference tournament and.then waded through the ranks of the tourney favorites to chalk up 4 more victories and the title. North Carolina’s champion- ship team of 1924 is the only other title winner of recent years to go through a season undefeated. The Tarheels won 26 games that year. Except for “Lindy” Hood, a tower- ing center who resembles Col. Charles A. Lindbergh, the Tide had an outfit of smal] players. One of the stars was Fritz Wambsganss, nephew of the Wamby of world series triple-play fame, a 5 foot 4 inch guard whose cool generalship had much to do with Bama'’s victory over the highly touted Duke outfit in the final tilt. | 5 i “Bootleg” Ring Bouts |: Problem in Minnesota | Minneapolis, March 16 (A.P.).—| Laxity of local officials is enabling | “bootleg’’ boxing promoters many privileges in Minnesota, says Dr. An- drew Sivertsen, chairman of the State | Boxing Commission.

With Drexel Institute, of Philadel- phia, but two weeks away on the schedule, workouts are becoming harder every day, and Coach Bernier expects to have his men in good form by March 27 when the opening game is played.

Right now it looks as if George- town is going to enjoy its best base- ball season in years. The 1929 team, which won half of its twenty games, has returned virtually intact, while the freshman aggregation of last year has sent up several promising players who are making strong bids to oust the so-called regulars. Coach Red Smith is optimistic. He likes the manner in which the pitch- ers are ing and is highly eased with the caliber of the in- elders. He has two complete infields between which there is little to choose in the way of capability on defense. Walter Morris at Third Base. However, it is expected that he will nominate three of the 1929 quartet to take their old positions in the opening game, These three are Wal- ter Morris, third base; Johnny Dunn, shortstop, and Johnny Scalzi, second Johnny Bozek, who held down first base last spring, has been shifted to the outfield, and his old job has been turned over to Phil Mooney, a left- hander. With Bozek in the outfield are Capt. Ralph McCarthy and Bob ——— who played regularly last — pitching department has been strengthened by Harry Noznesky, a southpaw, who has had considerable experience in New England amateur ranks, and Bill Lomax, a right- hander, who performed effectively for the 1929 freshmen. The mainstays of the 1929 varsity, Hal Poole and Russell (“Packy’) White, are again on the job. Behind the plate the Hilltoppers also are stronger than a year ago. Paul Donovan, a veteran, is battling to re- tain his position against the ambi- tious effotts of Jack Tierney, who caught several games, in 1928, and Frank Orefice, regular freshman re- ceiver of last season, Agua $10,000 Futurity Is Won by Siskin Agua Caliente, Mexico, March 16 (A.

Tourney Pratt Whirlwinds to Face Tremonts at Tech Tonight. CTION in the District A. A. U. ae basket ball tour- ™ nament, being sponsored by The Washington Post, should provide some of the keenest court play ever witnessed in the Tech High Gym- nasium this week. Last week’s open- ing contests saw the elimination of most of the weaker fives along with a few of the stronger teams. The simmering down has resulted in the bringing together of natural rivals in every class and it will be a fight to the finish to escape elimi- nation. The Jewish Community Center “big five’ and the Pfratt’s Whirlwinds, with their Business High School stars, are making their first tournament start tonight, which may or may not be their last appearance. Both of these teams have remarkable records for the season and are rated leading contenders in their respective divi- sions. J. C. C. to Battle Mount Vernon. Opposing the J. C. C. Five, which includes in fts line-up, among others, Irving Fine,.G. W. star; Sid Walien- stein, Irving ‘Abramson and Sam will be the crack Mount Vernon Quintet, champions of the Sunday School ue. Mount Vernon is not lacking in star players, having War- ren Swift, former Central star; Tom- my Dalglish, Melton, Crouch and others. The Pratt’s Whirlwinds will have the Tremontse, who have been in every A. A, U. tournament here, to hurdle to remain in the championship run- ning. The Tremonts, featured by the Ciago brothers, have more than one tourney upset to their credit. Whether they can step with Spencer Chase, Dick Keefer and Bobby Lucas remains to be seen: This game is in the 145- pound class. In another. unlimited clash, the famed Calvary M. E. Church Five, which won a string of Sunday school titles, will meet an old rival in the Fort Washington Club. Calvary, led by Paul Gottwals, veteran guard, hae a decision over the soldiers to its credit earned earlier in the season. The Soldiers will be out far revenge. Calvary Eagles in Action, The other game on the card Tech High will bring the Cal Eagles into action against the Night Hawks in the 130-pound division. At the ‘George Washington gym- nasium, the Aztecs, one of the city’s outstanding 115-pound clubs, will meet the tes, “who defeated St. Paul’s in the first round. This game starts at 4:30 o'clock.

New York Craft Wins. Sgn Pedro, Calif, March 16 (A-P.). The Marin, Manhasset Bay Yacht Club, New York, entry in the 8-meter boa Red Sox Look Promising For 1930 Quinn, Wagner Pleas- ed With Prospects of Revamped Team. No Title Contender, But Likely to Give All Foes Trouble. (Thies te the thirteenth of a series of frst hand Associated Presse stories of major league basedall prospects.) By BRIAN BELL. ENSACOLA, Fia., March 16 (A.P.). The Boston Red Sox may not . win the American League cham- pionship in 1936, but they will win some from the team that does selves very Gisagreeable during the season. The Sox have a long, hard base- ball road to travel, but they may be said to be definitely on the way. President Bob Quinn and Manager Heinie Wagner are convinced that the reconstruction program is finally launched. They believe the come- back trail will have ite start this year, that with a little luck tie team in the making will annoy the other clubs no end, and an even more daring hope—that upon this founda- tion wil] be built a baseball machine capable of restoring to Boston the glory that was hers when the Red Sox not only dominated pennant races, but world series as well. Players Not as Old As Thoaght. Of 37 players in the camp, 31 are under 30 years of age. Eighteen are not yet 25. The oldest player is Mil- ton Gaston, a hard pitcher to beat, who is 32, and the youngest Joe Ci- cero, a boy with a wallop in his bat, who is only 19. The club promises, however, to be well balanced with a good mixture of the experience of age and the enthusiasm of youth. The pitchers have been around long enough to know what it is all about and a raw youngster in the lineup will have an old head in baseball close beside him. Pitching was not the worry of the Sox last year and the capable staff of 1929 has Been returned in a body. Ed Morris, who broke even in games won and lost on a team hopelessly in last place, heads the. group, with Charlie Ruffing. who finished strong after losing hie first twelve games, working hard to make a repetition of this tragedy out of the question. Gaston, Danny MacFayden and Jack Russell are other starting pitchers. Young Hurlers May Fit in Well. There seems to be a wealth of ma- terial from which to complete the staff. Billy Bayne, Ergar Carroll and Ray Doberns tried briefiy last year, and Horace Lizenbee. whose arm flopped without warning, are candi- dates. George Smith, former Detroit pitcher drafted from Seattle, and Ed Durham, recalled from Pittsfield. are adding zest to the fight for places, as is Frank Mulrooney, another Pitts- field product. An added starter is attracting at- tention. Ben Shields, ‘the former Yankee left-hander, forced into re- tirement by illness four years ago, is attempting a comeback, and certainly has a chance to succeed. There is a freshman class of am- bitious young pitchers whose mem- bers will have to matriculate in a baseball college of less exacting stand- ards Charlie Berry and John Heving probably will do most of the catching, with a contest between Bob Asbjorson and Eddie Connolly for the third place. Manager Wagner does not know how he will send his forces into bat- tle arrayed for the opening skirmish but he does know that he will retain the services of 8 infielders and 6 outfielders until he has to reduce to 25 players June 15. Two Complete Infields Now in Training. He has two complete infields in Phil Todt, Bill Regan, Harold Rhyne and Bobby Reeves on one side ano Bill Sweeney Otis Miller, Bill Nar- lesky and Ernie Holman on the other. Both first basemen will be re- tained, for Sweeney is fast and can make himself very useful. Selection of the other two extra infielders may remain in doubt for some time.

Silver Bullet Will Do 320 Miles, Says Designer; Sets 250 as Goal AYTONA Beach, Fla., March 16 (A.P.).—Utmost confidence in the racing car he designed for Kaye Don's assault upon the world’s speed record was expressed here today by Louis Coatelen, European automo- tive engineer. He said the machine, powered with two 12-cylinder motors, was capable of attaining a speed of from 310 to 320 miles an hour, but added that “we shall not attempt more. than 250 at this time, because we want somebody else to break that mark so we can come back again.” The veteran automobile designer, who is chief engineer for the Sun- beam Motor Car Co., of England, ar- rived here from New York today and spent the entire day inspecting the giant silver bullet machine in which Don yesterday attained a speed of 198 miles an hour during 4a predim? minor mechanical troubles and altera- tions.

Richmond, Va., March 16-—As the congressional fight in the Seventb Virginia District gets under way. new efforts are being made to get former Gov. Harry Flood Byrd, of Winches- ter, to enter “the race again Jacob A Garber. of Harrisonburg, the present Republican.representative. it is learn- ed here from Valley sources. Close frieffds of the former gover- nor say that he is not interested in the nomination. They believe that he will refuse it if thrust upon him, unless his acceptance should prove the only means of preventing # fac- tional fight in the party. Judge John W. Pishburne, of Charlottesville, the only avowed candidate for the nomi- nation so far, has announced that he will withdraw from the face in favor of Harry Byrd. John T. Harris, of Harrisonburg, a prospective candi- date, has maintained that if the for- mer governor becomes interested to the point of accepting the nomina- tion, he will give no further thought to entering the race. Party leaders are urging Gov. Byrd to take the nomination so that the Democrats may resent a united front against the ublicans in the November balloting. These leaders are working earnestly to forestell a sharp nomination fight which seems to be brewing and see in the naming of former Gov. Byrd the only means of doing: it. Judge Fishburne, who resigned last week from the bench of the Albe- marie Circuit Court, is now busy touring the Seventh District. The greater part of his time is being spent in the Shenandoah Valley sec- tion as he feels that his home coun- try east of the Blue Ridge Mountains will give him a sizable majority. John T. Harris, the Harrisonburg attorney, has not announced his can- didacy, although his friends expect him to enter the race. ere is an effort on the part of friends of Dr. William J. Showalter, of Washing- ton, associate editor of the National Geographic Magazine and a voter in Harrisonburg, to have him run. Seventh District Democrats, nor- mally in control of the district, feel that they have a good chance of re- turning the district to the Demo- cratic column in the November elec- tion, especially if they are able to present a united front As the situa- tion shapes up now, leaders see a contest between the Valley and the east-of-the-Blue-Ridge sections, al- though the Valley does not yet have a candidate in the field. The east of the Ridge has not been represented in Congress for years, and the Demo- crats there maintain that it is time they are given the honor.

Warrenton, Va., March 16. Fire of undetermined origin destroyed a large dairy barn at the country home of Judge Howard W. Smith, of Alexan- dria, near Broad Run, Fauquier Coun- ty, late yesterday afternoon. The War- renton Fire Department answered the call at 2 p. m. and until 7 o’clock last night fought the blaze with a quarter of mile of hose laid to a near- by stream. Loss was estimated at $5,000. The efforts of the companies were devoted mostly to the saving of the handsome home of Judge Smith, which was untenanted at the time. Fox-Hunt Season Ends in Virginia Golden Bridge and Clarke County Clubs Take Part in Chase. Special to The Washington Post. Winchester, Va., March 16.—A full week of fox hunting by members of the Golden Bridge Hunt Club, of New York, and the Blue Ridge Hunt Club, of Clarke County, Va., came No a close yesterday in the southern part of Virginia. fs The New York and Clarke County hunters were joined the last day of the sport by friends from the Mid- dlieburg (Va.) Hunt Club, and formed perhaps the largest hunt party seen in Clarke County in many years. The combined packs of the three clubs lead over the nels, near Old Chapel, toward the Sprinsberry estate of Gen. Daniel Morgan, of the American Revolution, on toward the river. The chase lasted until late in the afternoon, when a red fox was denned. The three clubs were led by their respective masters, Langhorne Gibson, for Golden Bridge; D. C. Sands, for Middleburg, and Ewart Johnston, for Blue Ridge. A hunt breakfast fol- lowed at Carter Hall, the famous old Burwell showplace, recently pur- chased by Gerald Lambert, of Prince- ton, N. J. Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Richardson, of Chicago, who came t for the meet, entertained last night at a dinner party at their country place near Berryville for those who had taken part in the day’s hunt. Most of the New York clubmen returned to- day. Their mounts and hounds will be taken back to New York tomor- row in special] moving vans ogee’: for transporting horses and dogs.

She said “No”—but you know what a woman’s “No” means! And Will- lam Haines’ current offering presents no change in this fundamental premise. Ever an actor —— his time and talents to the promulgation of smart- aleck roles, and having had many which offer an admirable chance to display his livelier attributes, Will- lam Haines has had few, if any, op- portunities for displaying them to better advantage than in Tne Colum - bia’s current attraction. He is at his best and supported by a cast which is sO admirably chosen that the star loses’ much of the glamor that should surround his excellent efforts. Mr. Haines in the principal role is supported by Leila Hyams, as the girl; Marie Dressler, the sales-resist- ant bachelor “girl,” who practically steals the show away from the star, and Polly Moran, as the maid in the paternal household. The entire sup- keeps the audience in a continual uproar. The whole story is entirely improb- able, but that mere trifie means noth- ing inasmuch as the net gain is a rousing comedy, excellently acted and with direction, photography and sound technique above reproach.

In shaping and directing their story, John and James K. Mc- Guinness have been perticularly srill- ful in their utilization of contrasts. The introductory sequences in 4a hai “bund” are given over to the ribald enterprises that represent his shoresjeave, while the later devel- opments concern themselves entirely with how men comport themselves while facing imminent death. The two divisions of the play mark the opposite éxtremes of human experi- ence. This “bund” business is highly di- verting, even if at times a trifie too frank in its exposition of what a sailor does with his money ashore. During Its progress there is singing, dancing, much drinking at a bar that seems no less than a mile long and a steady flow of salty comedy, edroitly put over by a lusty male pi nel whose taste in feminine chritude is ob- viously imternational. It is too bad they had to put to sea on a night like that! It is upon the sea, nevertheless, that this picture depends for the over- whelming quality of its suspense. When the collision occurs, in an im- penetrable fog, the commander is washed overboard with his lookouts, leaving Ensign Price. fresh from An- napolis and the football] fiields, in command of the 8-13 and his im- prisoned mates, fourteen of the tough- est fighting men in the Navy. Slowly the one remaining oxygen tank is consumed. One by one the men be- gin to crack under the strain. One loses his mind in a religious fervor and has to be shot by the ensign, who stands aghast at his deed; an- other bids his comrades -by and goes heroically to sleep; another is merely “awfully tired.” And so time drags/on through one of the most vitally real of human dramas. There is no love interest, no romantic glamour, no tinsel of the the- ater here—just death stalking the hold of a crippled sub. To heighten the effect there is put aboard the 8-13, as chief torpedeman, the only surviving officer of the Brit- ish mavy who holds the secret of the fate of Lord Kitchener in the North Sea. On the surface, among the res- cuers, is Capt. Weymouth. who awaits the chance to place him under arrest. How this comes out you will have to see for yourself. I refuse to spoil it for you. It. is no more than simple justice to recite the entire cast, since there is nothing to choose among them in excellence of perfarmonce: Kenneth MacKenna, chief torpedoman; Frank Albertson, Ensign Price, Paul Page, Walter McGrail, Warren Hymer, Far- rell MacDonald, Stuart Erwin, George LeGuerre, Ben Hendricks, jr., Harry Tenbrook, Roy Stewart, Warner Rich- mond, Charlies Gerrard and Pat Som- erset.

Reviewed Sat- urday afternoon. The beauty and the majesty of the m ificent natural backgrounds against which much of the action of this me tic romance of the pioneering days of "49 is unreeled are in enough to establish y as one of major achievements. The method of natural color photog- raphy which heretofore has been per- haps too largely restricted to indoor shote and revue, scenes, is here car-+ ried into the open to reproduce in the actual tints of mature the gran- deur of the country through which an earlier generation pursued a con- stantly receding frontier. Even if the story of “Bong of the West” falls something short of epic power, cer- tainly mo such charge can be lodged against its setting. The story of outlying cavalry posts the covered wagon trails and a rene- gade officer restored to his uniform and shoulder bars, and the trust of his wife, has within it all of the ingredients of heroic drama. Yet there are quite as many scenes that seek the extravagances of opera bouffe as scale the heights of any romantic realism. The charac- ters and the period in which they moved were both a triffe more stal- wart than they are made to appear in this first of the al fresco musi- cals. However, there is a great deal in the fabric of the play over which to enthuse. Against a tale of troubled love it: balances a vein of comedy that affords Joe E. Brown his most fruitful opportunitiy to date. not fore getting the excellence of his buffoon- ery with Maryilyn Miller in “Sally.” His drollery, as “Hasty,” the mule skinner, is a constant source of en- livement and the bit wherein he lays down his life for his friend, after having accounted for two of a trio of quick triggermen, is inipressively executed. The friend for whom this sacrifice was made is Stanton, the hero of the piecé, impersonated by John Boles. Mr. Boles, between his downfall and restoration as an Army officer, is by turns trail blazer, “parson” and gambler. In every diverse manifesta- tion of character he is in fine voice. No less is true of Vivienne whose soprano finds ample occupa- tion in the effective score composed by Vincent Youmans, and whose act- ing is quite on a par with any she has contributed to the stage produc- tions she has graced. A numerous supporting company is led by Rudolph Cameron, Eddie Grib- bon, Sam Hardy, Edward Martindel, Marie Wells and Marion “Peanuts” Byron. Miss Wells, as the feminine menace; Miss Byron, as Hasty’s strongest weakness, and Mr. Cameron, as Stanton’s fival for the hand of Virginia, are especially well cast. Thé recording is excellent through- out, although full orchestral accom- paniment seems wholly out of in many of the sequences in which it is employed. Only in the ensembles does the color photography occasion- ally lose its sharp definition. As the first of its line, “Song of the West” is eloquent of greater glories to come.
